Inter-term idea a "positive one
w
By   Dean   Carleton
As we near the end of California Baptist College's first
Inter-Term the general feeling is
that the idea has a positive one.
While we had hoped for an enrollment of 400, the final enrollment of 283 is much better
than pre-registration had indicated. Most of the classes which
were offered had sufficient enrollment and we had to cancel only
5 or 6. One of the fears we had
was that the campus might be so
quiet that it would resemble a
morgue but, at least from the
perspective of the dean's office,
the halls have remained quiet
lively.
It will be interesting to see the
attitude of students as they return
from Spring Semester. Hopefully
many will have found home to be
not quite as exciting as they an
ticipated. We would love to see
Inter-Term reach at least 50%
of Fall   registration   in  the   next
few years. One of the ways this
can happen is for students to
communicate with faculty members about the courses which they
would like to see offered during
Inter-Term 1979. As you think
about your programs, 1 hope that
you will communicate these interests not only to your major
professor but to other teachers
you may have.
All of us look forward to the
return of the travel groups, both
from Europe and the Middle East.
Their reports should prove interesting and may spur others to
plan similar trips. All inall Inter-
Term 1978 has been a successful
experience from the administration's viewpoint.
Ron Hudson Perforins
at Loma Linda •! "
Classical guitarist Ron Hudson
will perform Saturday evening,
January 28, at 8:30 p.m. in Gentry Gymnasium on the Loma Linda
campus of Loma Londa University.
The concert is the encore performance for the La Sierra Concert Series.
H-Jion's musical career began in the mountains of a small
India village in northern Guatemala where his missionary parents taught him to play several
musical instruments including the
trumpet, trombone, organ, peian-
trumpet, trombone, organ, piano,
and marimba. The one he found
most interesting, however, was
the guitar.
In the spring of 1970 he received a grant from the Consulate
General   of   Guatemala   to   study
classical and flamenco music in
Spain, and the consulate arranged
several major concert tours for
Hudson when he completed his
studies.
Hudson's program mciuue^
music from his native Guatemala
as well as popular and original
compositions. He recently wrote
a piece about the tragic earthquake in Guatemala entitled "En-
tre las Ruinas de Guatemala."
Other selections on the program
are Paul Simon's "Cecilia," Pro-
col Harum's "Whiter Shade of
Pale," J.S. Bach's "Brandenburg
Concerto No. 3," several flamenco
pieces, and his favorite compor-
sition Jim Webb's "MacArthur
Park."
In 1976, the Nicaraguan government selected Hudson to represent
their country in a series of world
wide concert tours. He had just
returned from England and Scotland.
Tickets for the Loma Linda
conceit cost iu, 3n, ic Si.50 tor
