Tuesday, December 13, I960 PARSON Ever since the beginning of the students educational institution, have been plagued by the problem of How to get in good with the professor. Being in a Christmasy mood, the Bean Poll with its benevolent heart attempts to succor those Westminster students who are interested in raising their grades. And what better way may be found to achieve this mean by finding out those good qualities which the professors look for in their students? May you find this poll The Bean Polls Christmas gift to the Westminster student interesting as well as useful. (P.S. I wonder, are the professors too old for apples?) Professor: Mr. Tanner, Instructor of Mathematics: the ability to Thoroughness think things out completely, to examine and evaluate all facets of a problem or idea is the quality I look for in a student It is the complete examination of particular cases the many parts, the interrelationships, the implications, the whys and the 'hows that enable the scientist the historian, the philosopher to theorize and to generalize. It is the use of the same ability to make thorough examination of problems, ideas, and theories that studifferentiates between the dent and the enrollee. Professor: Dr. Yancey, Instructor of Spanish and French; A desire to learn. A student who wants to learn another language will study, not just to get four hours of A but to learn how other people speak and think. He will not say, Thats a funny way to say it, recognizing that the foreign way may be as logical as ours, and perhaps more meaningful. A language student will want to learn what other cultures can teach us and what other cultures have contributed to our own. Professor: Dr. O. T. Driggs, Instructor of History: Intense curiosity, coupled with a sense of wonder and awe in the face of a mysterious universe, marks the real student To a student with such a sense of wonder and a desire to do something about it the petty and personal become trivia; and such matters as study habits, grades, and vocational goals, with proper guidance, eventually take care of themselves. Professor: Miss Marimon, Instructor of English: The student who does his work well because he desires to know, who does it on the time because he realizes how little time we have, who is as conscientious and careful about the task he dislikes as he is about the one he loves, is a student with real quality. He loves learning and belongs in college. Professor Dr. Van Norman, Instructor of Biology: I look for the following qualities in a student: 1. Sufficient intelligence to grasp abstract concepts. 2. Initiative, integrity and enough to want to do own work promptly; one who takes pride in being thorough. 3. Interest and initiative enough to seek wider understandings and additional applications of the things he is learning. 4. A sense of humor. Professor. Dr. Justesen, ' PINNIN& HER. self-relianu- ce Instructor of Psychology: I shall rephrase the question ask, What qualities contribute to the making of a good student? It is theu possible possible to illustrate those good qualities by citing various faculty members in whom they exist. For example, I admire the following qualities: Mr. Sturms ability to see the order that exists in any chaos and Dr. Driggs ability to find the chaos that exists in any order; Dr. Ballengers ability to be a libs eral conservative and Dr. to a be conservative ability liberal; Dr. Boyacks ability to arouse controversy and Mr. Nymans ability to quell it; Miss Marimons ability to be emotional about the factual and analytic, and Dr. Chapmans ability to be factual and analytic about the emotional; Mrs. Stanleys ability to speak-uwhen she feels so called upon, and Dr. Teleckys ability to know when to invest in silence; Mr. Richardsons ability to find muscles with brains, and Dr. Schwenders ability to find brains with muscles; (And finally) Dr. Bercovitzs ability to see the tragedy in the comic and Mr. McDowells ability to see the comedy in the tragic. Professor: Mr. Maurer, Instructor of Geology; I look for qualities in students which seem to me likely to assure success in college. A student who is interested in learning and eager to work at learning is likely to enjoy college and to succeed. A college student should also have academic ability and a reasonable grade and high school preparation. If he is admitted to college, however, he is likely to have these qualities. Con-rod- p Annual By GAIL-LE- E J Prom MASCOLO On the evening of Dec. 10, the Junior Class of Westminster College held its annual dance. It was held at the Old Mill from 9 p.m. to 12 p.m. and music was provided by Bill Link and his Combo. Approximately one hundred couples attended the dance. Christmas in Siam was the theme of the Junior Prom and decorations were in black and gold. Nine Siamese dancing girls on pedestals adorned the dance floor with a gold Christmas tree at the center. The ceiling was also done in black. Refreshments were served and door prizes given. A floor show consisting of a dance by Donnaa Nunley and Janice Axman and duet by Judy Nilsson and Lowell Larson provided entertainment. Chaperones were Dr. and Mrs. M. C. Ballenger, Mr. and Mrs. T. Miller and Mrs. Elizabeth Syme. Members of the dance committee were the class officers with Duane Greene as president; Cliff Horton, Carol Cheminant, secretary; Curt Smith, treasurer and Barbara Ballenger, Irene Baylor, Lucille Horton, DeAnna Larsen, and Wendy Miller. semi-form- vice-preside- al |
