EDITORIAL by Laura D. Martin Two friends, having reached the summit of a beautiful mountain paused to aprtake of the awe inspiring beauty surrounding them. The first man, a humble plowman said, This is a holy place. I would live here in harmony with mother nature. The second man, a wealthy merchant reIndeed you speak well, I also would abide here, plied, far removed from the constant opposition and strife on the plains below. Besides there is much gold metal to be found among these hills. The humble plowman replied sorrowfully to his companion, you shall not excape opposition here but encounter it sorely; for you and I are not oneliut two and worship not one but two Gods. Young people searching for meaningful values often find themselves in the precarious shoes of the plowman and the merchant. New found values and ideas once incorporated into an individuals character immediately come into conflict with those already established by friends and associates. The rudimentary problem that arises is the nature of our relationships with those whose God is radically different from our own. Two attitudes emerge to protect the individual from dealing responsibly with the differences he finds in other people. They are a superior and an inferior attitude. J J Wishing to make friends or achieve a relative degree of harmony among associates a person offten assumes the inferior attitude'and falls into confusion after allowing compromises to be made which lead to destruction of established personality patterns. These people, by reason of their various compromises to different people soon begin to appear different to each person they come on contact with. Trying to satisfy everyone by being a different person with each soon leads to a thousand personalities with thousands of masks. One day they must stop the charade, face themselves in the mirror and ask themselves who they are. The answer is no one. Trying to satisfy everyone and each of their ideologys is exhausting. The superior attitude is equally ruinous to the individual. The superior man treats those with different ideas as unequals. He is prone to distrust and fear those with unfamiliar traditions and beliefs. The superior minded man ignorantly projects his fears to the physical plane where inferiors are enchained, ridiculed or made to suffer in diverse ways. He often reacts by denying the existence of those people who fall short of certain subjective standards. In ivory towers the superior man surrounds himself with others of like nature, yet has the incredible blindness to query, Why am I lonely? Isolated from contact with strange concepts his untutored mind grows narrower and more solitary, refusing to be expanded by exercising the virtues of understanding, patience and brotherly love. This man fails to see that respect for anothers philosophy or God is the key that will enable him to escape the The attitudes men use of achieve harmony have been shown for what they are erroneous. Compromise for the inferior man and excessive pride for the superior. Both spent undue amounts of energy but lost themselves on tlie process. How much better if we could cease our eternal struggle to impress or condemn our brothers and search for the truths that would enable us to love. Ray Pollard look over the academic of Dixie College see a year filled not only with Dixie Spirit, its challenges, its but also its disappointments. First of all, let me say what an honor and a challenge it has been for me to represent you and this college for the past year. I found this experience both gratifying and humbling. In many ways this has been a very good year at Dixie. I give thanks to John Ence for the extremely good Homecoming planned by he and his committee, and also to Danny McArthur and his committee for the activity-fille- d Both added tremendously to the success of the year. There were also the extremely good Womens and Mens Weeks given to us by Jean Bundy and Fred Kamper and their respective councils. And yet the year would have been a little shallow had the campus clubs and organizations, as well as the Student Council, not taken such an active part. Further, I will take this opportunity to give a personal thank you to: Mr. Persinger, who has gone the extra mile every time he was called. Dean Laidlaw,who was always there to direct and keep us on the proper course; Mrs. Difiore for keeping alive the Dixie Spirit; and many As year 1 1969-7- n June 4, .UN 0 1 high-light- s, Dixie Graduate List other faculty members as wellas students who have contributed their time and abilities to the service of the studentbody. While I am paying recognition to those in service let me say thank you to President Losee and the administration for the willingness to meet the needs not only of the students but that of the total campus community. However, as I look over resolutions I had made last September, I am saddened. One inpromise I had made was to volve more of the students in the that directly affect decisions them. To this end we had two open forums to deal with any complaints that the students might have. Only six attended. We also had an open meeting to discuss the proposed Senate Constitution and again, the turnout was poor. From these threeexperiences I conclude that either the students have no problems or they simply do not care I can accept neither. The studentbody of Dixie College has been given a unique opportunity in the proposed Senate. I enthusiastically recommend that the studentbody officers, as well as the studentbody, get involved in the passing and enacting of the Senate constitution.
