Fieldtrips end summer school By Venita Koylance This is. the ast week for summer school this year, ending a four-week term of regular studies for Springville Elementary students, highlighted by field trips. Until about 10 years ago, summer school was mostly a remedial program for children who needed to catch-up before the next grade began. Then, the Grant School was revised and set up as a demonstration school for the open-classroom, individualized program, according to Waldo Jacobsen, principal. With the support of the Nebo District superintendant at that time, the school was opened through the summer with the same continuing program, creating a year-round school. Since that first year, the program has changed some, says Mr. Jacobsen, from a year-round school for Grant students to a short, summer program open to all Springville children. The schedule follows the curriculum of the regular school-year emphasizing the basics of reading, spelling, and math. Field trips this year have included trips to Kelley's Grove, Little Sahara Sand Dunes, Hogle Zoo, BYU, Timp Cave, and Saratoga Resort. Groups of fifth graders also spent one week at Shadow Mountain camp in Hobble Creek canyon. First grade students with teacher Sherralyn Taylor board bus for summer school field trip to BYU.

"Evil deeds do not prosper; the slow man catches up with the swift." Homer Editorial Independence, that elusive ideal for which our forefathers pledged their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor, and for which succeeding generations have fought to preserve "from the halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli" which has been periodically redefined to include the ten amendments preserved and documented in the Bill of Rights, the four freedoms preserved in the Americana of Roosevelt's Fireside chats, and most recently, the Miranda Decision reiterated by the Supreme Court. Independence, for which families of immigrants seeking not gold, not glory, but God, trudged their way across 2200 miles of "fruited plains," many with small children, pulling their meagre possessions in hand-carts to settle in these Western states. Independence, somewhat tarnished, perhaps, by the follies and weaknesses of man but renewed by the efforts of his successors, rubbed newly bright to gleam its ideal of hope to the world, can only be preserved by the individual efforts of our citizens... you and me. On the grass-roots level of government that means participation, par-ticipation, not apathy; dedication, not indifference; information, not ignorance. In the hullabaloo of the recent City Budget Hearing, perhaps the most important im-portant suggestion of all went unremarked, if not unnoted. Made by your neighbor, was the suggestion that we recall that this community, indeed, this nation, was built by volunteer effort. By the pitching in of neighbor to help neighbor, neigh-bor, whether it was a barn-raising or a quilting bee, more heads are better than one; more hands, too. We need to realize that our destinies cannot be assigned away. That ultimately, by our own efforts, we will eat and feed our families, preserve our traditions, and create that better world which we hope to bequeath to our children and to our children's children. On the Fourth as we salute Old Glory and offer our gratitude Heavenward, may we commit in our hearts to give a little more of ourselves to the chain of inherited freedom and the American way, of which we are but a link.

Woodbury of the Brigham Young University College of Fine Arts and Communications Com-munications recently announced the splitting of the Department on Art and Design into two separate departments. "This is' the implementation im-plementation of a decision to make a new design department," Dr. Woodbury said. "We just had a meeting to decide how to divide the faculty, curriculum, facilities and other areas of the old department." Areas included in the new Department of Design will be interior environment, industrial design, graphics design and crafts. College administrators ad-ministrators plan to house as much of the department as possible in the Brimhall Building. "There will be some distinct differences in the philosophy and education offered in the new Department of Design as compared with the old department," said Michael Graves, newly-named newly-named chairman of the new department. "There will be a two-pronged effort to develop students in the area of design: one will be an intensive skill-oriented skill-oriented development of hand and eye coordination coor-dination for designers and the other will be a design-core design-core that will relate knowledge to the methodology of design." "A designer is a generalist," Graves continued. "He must take the elements of aesthetics and blend them with practical skills. "I'm excited about the change," said Robert Marshall, chairman of the Department of Art and Design, soon to be the Department of Art. "This will allow us to focus on the studio arts, to reevaluate re-evaluate and make new committments to this area of the fine arts."
