The BANNER Vol. XXVIII, Issue 2 California Baptist College Sept. 10,1982 Tenure no protection Campus Digest News Service ■ For the first time at a number of schools across the country, tenured professors may become casualties of budget deficits and decreased enrollments. According to spokesmen for the American Association of University Professors, colleges and universities are under pressure to lay off or let go tenured professors in response to federal spending cuts in aid to education. Temple University, University of Idaho, state colleges in Pennsylvania and California and some community colleges all are considering the budgetary move. The AAUP is offering alternatives to schools which plan on letting go tenured professors this fall, although the faculty group argues that colleges can't fire tenured teachers unless the institution is removing an entire program for academic reasons, or if its survival is at stake. One of the alternatives includes changing assignments for faculty members. One school in Michigan will offer retirement incentives to avoid laying off 100 tenured faculty members. Students Shortchange Their Careers Well, the school year has started amid a volley of mixed emotions. Many are making plans, commitments, goals, and setting up expectations for the coming year. Yet in a couple of weeks, most people's aspirations, goals, and commitments will be buried under a mountain of homework. But no matter how busy you get, please don't forget why you are here. I would hazard to guess that some are here to find a mate (no matter how much they deny it, that's probably true for most of you). If that is true for you, then the sooner you get started on your homework, the better. Homework? You bet! If you want the best, then you've get to work on becoming your best. This is the time for self examination and self improvement, working on your attitudes, relationships, emotions, values, interests, (yes, even your looks). Unfortunately, most people work on their personal growth more haphazardly than they choose their toothpaste. I would also guess that many of you are here to have a good time. Great! The truth is, however, that having a good time is not as easy as it seems. Few people really develop their interests, hobbies, or enjoyments. And the fact is, many "good times" don't last. The secret is to find good times that really will last you — for the rest of your life. So work on your interests; often people with only one interest or idea of a good time are real- ly pretty boring people. As you work on your interests, you'll probably find a few sports, hobbies, activites that are particularly enjoyable to you, but you may also find that the best times simply involve the relationship you enjoy with your friends. (So far, the really permanent friends I made, I made in college.) Finally, unless you are independently wealthy, set up for life, and just enjoy going to school for all the wonderful knowledge gained, I hope most of you are here to prepare for your career. I hate to tell you, but it's not enough to struggle through 41 or more assorted classes for four years. That, plus carefully reading the want ads will land you a dishwashing job. Yes, more is needed. You need to know the career you're going into. You need to know what is needed to get there and how to prepare for it. You need experience. You need to be involved, belong to organizations, make contacts. You need to know job hunting, resume, and interviewing skills. If you really want to prepare for one of the most important aspects of your life, then you need to begin preparing yourself in all areas, not just academic. And you need to start now. If there's anything I can do to help, come see me in the Job Placement Office, room 159. The Job Placement Office is open Monday through Wednesday, 8-12, and Thursday - Friday, 1-5. Don't sell your future short. —Brad Camp Job Placement Director Rock Travels to Alaska This summer, several C.B.C. students served, through the Home Mission Board, as summer missionaries. Maria Rock was asked to share some of her more memorable experiences as she served this summer in Alaska. One of her greatest challenges was opportunity to begin a day camp. The camp was open six hours a day, and the kids were five through eight years old. They had exoected ten kids, and "nineteen showed up!" Maria and her partner Women Forced To Pay ASB is excited to announce their annual TWIRP week Sept. 13-17. "TWIRP" itself means THE WOMAN IS REQUIRED TO PAY. It is a chance for CBC women to appreciate the efforts that the CBC men will put out during the rest of the year! To begin Twirp week this year we are trying something new, computer dating. On Monday you will have a three question survey to answer. It will be processed into our school computer which will set you up with your "perfect match." WARNING — it would be advisable not to set or break engagements, going steady relationships, or potential dating material, just because your computer partner is not your partner in reality. It just gives you an opportunity to meet someone new with common interests of your own. That night you will take your partner and go roller skating at the 2001 Roller Rink. Tuesday night is Sadie Hawkins Night, with a special Bar-B-Que Ribs Dinner, (yum)! Entertainment by a western singing couple will be provided, plus a shotgun wedding ceremony where you girls can "hitch up" with the right man! Following all the fun at dinner, you can pay a small fee, hop on a Hayride and participate in a bonfire with roasted marshmallows. Wednesday night, create your own twirp. Use your imagination! Thursday, we will present a movie from the survey most of you filled out. Bring a pillow and some popcorn and join the fun. Friday night is a special trip to Disneyland where the theme is "Gospel Night." We will be taking a bus and there is a limited amount of tickets avilable in the ASB office. Twirp week promises to be fun! So girls save your money, get your courage up and catch that fella! And guys, get involved and say YES! —Sherri Wilbourne A.S.B. Activities Dir. recruited 2 young helpers from the church, and after several sessions of prayer, the camp proved to be an enormous success! The experience helped to establish her goal to be a teacher in the foreign missionary service, and proved that her goal was not only attainable, but that she is quite capable. Maria offered to share some common problems and needs among summer missionaries. She listed lack of communication with supervisors to be a common problem. She encountered the need to be tremendously flexible, as she was on call 24 hours a day. Maria commented on a problem that does not exist exclusively in the foreign mission field. "At the church I stayed in, I often heard many pat answers to problems that were never back by faith." She further stated that, "After going to Alaska, I don't think I'll ever drop a pat answer again." Overall, Maria seemed enthusiastic about her service. She stated that it taught her a greater dependency on the Lord, and greater confidence in her own abilities. I hope that the rest of our summer missionaries can report with such enthusiasm.
