The Computer and 
Education at Brown 

When the editors ol Time magazine de- 
clined to name a Man or Woman ol the 
Year for 1982, choosing instead to name 
the computer Machine of the Year, they 
were acknowledging the overwhelming 
influence computers increasingly exert 
over our lives. Brown has recognized the 
power of the computet by beginning an 
experiment that will dramatically affect 
every aspect of campus life. 



Brown's Summer Academy: 
"Now I Know I'll Fit In" 

Take several inembers of the Brown fac- 
ulty, add dozens of high school students 
willing to spend a few weeks of their 
summer vacation in an academic envi- 
ronment, and the result is an intellectual 
and social experience known as the 
Browti .Summer Academy. 



Alvin Sizer '36: 
"Unaccustomed As I Was" 

An alumnus recollects in traiK|uility the 
fear and loathing of rhetoric class — and 
the one magic moment that cured him of 
stage flight forever.

Preserve 
Your Assets 

The harvest has been bountiful, 
but now you're faced with the 
prospect of having the fruits of 
your labor gobbled up by estate 
tax. Don't be left in such a pickle! 

You can preserve your assets 
for your children or grand- 
children, and, at the same Hme, 
make a gift to Brown through a 
charitable lead trust. 

Brown will reap the benefits 
of the interest income during the 
term of the trust. Then, at the 
expiration of the trust, the prin- 
cipal wiU be passed on to the 
designated recipient. Those 
assets will have been removed 
from your estate and will not be 
subject to an estate tax at a later 
time.

charitable lead trusts, contact:

CARRYING THE MAIL 



The May issue 

Editor: Let me just say that John 
Foraste does exquisite photography! 
CATHERINE KARNON '82 

C.ampu.s 

Editor: The May 1983 BAM should 
be treasured. "In Celebration" cap- 
tures important essays, especially John 
Foraste's extraordiiiarv photo essay. 

Brown has a photographer who 
constantly rewards the eye and the 
imagination. (As an amateur/proies- 
sional photographer myself, I hnd my- 
self analyzing how he captured what is 
revealed.) 

Perhaps on m\ next trip to Brown, 
1 can comb his photo files for Com- 
mencement 1979. Both my father, 
Louis Miller '29, and I (class of '54) 
marched to the Old Meeting House. 
When I recognized John, I asked him 
to take our picture. Dad in his fifty- 
year reunion cap and I in academic 
regalia. I know he caught a magic 
moment. 

DEVRA MILLER BRESLOW '54 

Lus Angeles 

Editor: In the three years since my 
graduation, the Alumni Munthly seemed 
to me to reflect a great institution in 
almost constant turmoil. The articles 
and letters discussed the entire range 
of social, political, and financial prob- 
lems which face a major university 
with an urgency that left me uneasy 
for Brown's future. I began to wonder 
if those four years I spent in Provi- 
dence were not as they had seemed. 

I remembered a university brim- 
ming with confidence in the quality of 
its faculty and students, and taking 
pride in the place it had earned 
among its peers. I remembered a stu- 
dent body of incredible diversity of 
backgrounds creating a fascinating 
array of attitudes and experiences 
which I had never experienced before. 
What had occurred dining my absence 
from College Hill to stir the cauldron 
of discontent which appeared monthly 
in my mailbox? 



Amidst this private confusion, there 
now arrives the May issue of BAM. 
Inside, the Brown I remembered is 
back. I read with pride of the fine suc- 
cess of the Campaign for Brown, the 
concern of the students involved with 
Keep Brown Beautiful, and Professor 
Workman's rekindled faith in the abili- 
ties of his students to appreciate the 
efforts of the University on their be- 
half. Finally, there is Mr. Foraste's 
photographic tribute to the campus, 
which has been able to describe to my 
fellow officers the unique personality 
of Brown as I never could. The 
confidence and optimism contained in 
your May issue as regards Brown's 
place among the leaders in education 
is so strong as to be tangible to me. 
Thank you for reviving the old pride I 
carry for my University. It's great to 
know that, among the cries for change, 
a great University continues to thrive. 

Once again, thanks.

Thanks 

Editor: My wife and I, as well as 
our friends the Deckers, attended the 
graduation weekend festivities and had 
a marvelous time. 

I would like to especially express 
appreciation to the Brown Housing 
Department for their kindness and 
cointesy as well as for their excellent 
planning and arrangements. 

The weekend was indeed very 
pleasant and enjoyable. 

Thank you.

Waste of time 

Editor: In response to Dr. Work- 
man's most useful article may I men- 
tion that in my four years at Brown I 
listened intently, memorized assidu- 
ously, regurgitated competently (3.3 
average), forgot immediately, and, for 
all practical purposes, learned essen-

We did it! 




The Campaign for Brown 




Jim Harmon '57 reads one of the witty "Sayings of Chairman Henry" to Mrs. Henry 
D. Sharpe, Sr The occasion was a June 2 dinner celebrating the publication of "The Keyhole 
in the Sky, " a compilation of wry mixed metaphors for fundraisers to live by, collected from 
speeches made by Campaign for Brown National Chairman Henry D. Sharpe, Jr. '45. 





The Bio-Medical Center terrace enclosure, which houses the Center for Health Care Studies, 
is a visible symbol of the success of the Campaign for Brown. 



Gould Laboratory, Brown 's new computer 
science facility. Gould, Inc. , an Illinois-based 
electronics company with factories in more 
than 12 countries, is contributing $500,000 
over five years for construction of the 
laboratory. 



Campaign raises $182 million - tops goal by $24 million 



Brown Fund raises $18 million in Campaign 

The final totals are in and the Campaign for Brown topped its original 
goal of $ 1 58 million by more than $24 million. 

The final Campaign total is $182,045,819 raised in gifts and pledges 
from July 1, 1978 to June 30, 1983. 

The Brown Fund's performance "is one of the hallmark achievements 
of the Campaign," said National Campaign Chairman Henry D. Sharpe 
Jr. '45. 

"The Brown Fund result cannot be interpreted as anything but 
extraordinary," he said. "We planned to raise $ 14,600,000 for the Brown 
Fund during the five-year Campaign and surpassed that objective by 
some 23.5 percent ($3,424,000)." 

The Corporation of Brown University led the way in supporting the 
Campaign. Trustees gave a total of $42,670,202. 

A significant number of trustees pledged 10 percent of their annual 
incomes and 10 percent of their total assets to the Campaign. 

The Leadership Gifts portion of the Campaign (gifts of $50,000 and 
up) raised $54,993,232, more than $10 million over its original goal. 
There were 39 individual gifts of $ 1 million or more. 

Corporate and Foundation contributions to the Campaign amounted 
to $42,871,829, or 109 percent of their goal. This includes $10 million 
from IBM, the largest single corporate gift to the Campaign. 

Bequests received during the Campaign totalled $7,909,915. 

Among the Campaign's achievements were: renovation of the John 
Hay Library, construction of the Olney-Margolies Athletic Center and 
Geology-Chemistry Research Building, renovation of departmental 
houses, creation of eight new endowed chairs, and more than $40 million 
raised for scholarships, fellowships, and support of academic programs. 



Some of the Campaign's 
achievements in the final 
year . . . 

■ Brown to be computerized: 
$15 million IBM gift and new 
computer science annex 

■ Faunce House renovation 
underway 

■ The Nancy Duke Lewis 
Professorship funded 

■ The Buonanno Esplanade 
dedicated at the Athletic Center 

■ The President's Fund 
established to honor Howard 
Swearer 

■ The Sol Koffler Wing added to 
Brown's Bio-Medical complex 

■ Elmer M. Blistein House 
dedicated 

■ The National Service Scholar's 
Program expanded 

■ The Carberry Stockroom 
dedicated in the Geo-Chem 
Research Building 



Post-Campaign period to focus on endow- 
ment, Brow^n Fund 



In spite of the success of the Campaign 
for Brown, all of the University's current 
needs were not met. While total gifts to 
the Campaign for Brown were ahead of 
projected support, the uses for which 
these gifts were made were not totally 
consistent with Campaign priorities. 

For example, there was an imbalance 
between funds for restricted current 
support and money raised for endow- 
ment; considerably more was raised for 
restricted current support than pro- 
jected, while additions to the perma- 
nent endowment lagged. 

In the immediate post-campaign 
period, there will be a heightened 
emphasis on endowment, particularly 



for financial aid, for libraries, and for 
faculty chairs which provide budget 
relief for the University. 

There will also be a concerted effort 
to complete funding for building 
projects. Donors will be encouraged to 
accelerate payment of Campaign for 
Brown pledges to increase Brown's 
cash flow. 

Finally, The Brown Fund will be 
stressed in every solicitation. Emphasis 
will be on increasing the size of annual 
gifts; increasing the regularity of annual 
giving among alumni, alumnae, parents 
and friends; and increasing the Brown 
Fund's visibility as a central priority. 




"The generosity that we saw displayed in 
the Campaign for Brown will go far toward 
positioning the University for the difficult 
challenges thai lie ahead, " said President 
Howard Swearer, in announcing the raising 
of $182 million.

Five classes top $1 million 
in reunion giving 

The classes of 1928, 1933, 1938, 1953, 
and 1956 each raised more than $1 mil- 
lion in reunion gifts. 

The men and women of the class of 
1928 raised a total of $3,490,507 in 
celebration of their 55th reunion. The 
45th reunion class of 1958 raised 
$2,388,004. 

Next was the class of 1958 with 
Brown's largest 25th reunion gift on 
record - $2,241,941. The class of 1953 
30th reunion total was $ 1 ,964,864 and 
the class of 1933 contributed $ 1 ,648,933 
in its 50th reunion year. 

Senior Class raises $113,000

More than 1,250 volunteers manned 
the phones to bring in $832,893 in 74 
nights of phonothons in nine cities. 
Phonothon cities included Los Angeles, 
San Francisco, Boston, Hartford, New 
York and Washington, D.C. 



SCBC wins national avs'ard 

The Students Campaign for Brown 
Committee (SCBC) won an Exceptional 
Achievement Award from the Council 
for the Advancement and Support of 
Education for its outstanding fund- 
raising performance. 

The SCBC enlisted 393 students and 
raised $232,775 in Providence phono- 
thons. They also involved campus 
organizations, fraternities and athletic 
teams in support of the Campaign. 

Corporate Matching Gifts 
to Brown Fund quadruple 

Annual Corporate Matching gifts to the 
Brown Fund have quadrupled since the 
start of the Campaign, growing from 
$149,883 in fiscal 1978 to $667,211 in 
fiscal 1983. 

A total of 463 companies made gifts 
to Brown to match their employees' 
gifts last year. Top corporate donors 
included IBM, Exxon, Chase Manhattan 
Bank, Reliance Insurance, Time Inc., 
Cigna, Mobil, General Electric, Bell 
Laboratories, Louisiana Land and 
Exploration Co. and Textron. 




IBM leads Corporate, 
Foundation giving 

The largest corporate or foundation gift 
to the Campaign came from IBM - $ 1 5 
million to establish the Institute for 
Research in Information and Scholar- 
ship (IRIS). 

Corporations and Foundations con- 
tributed $42,871,829 to the Campaign

in 36 years 



^^wflMM W 



Thirry-six yeors ago we mode 
ond sold the firsr Purisr' burron- 
down shirt . . . wirh its exclusive 
"Liberty Dell" roll. 

The button-down was not new ot that time — but 
the Purist principles were. 

Today — nearly four decade's later — we are still 
proud of the Purist and what it represents to the 
wearers of quality opporel. 
The Purist has become the standard by which 
other shirts are measured. The followers — and 
there hove been many — hove merely added 
even greater recognition to the leadership of the 
Purlsr. For to be copied is to be honored. 




If Q leader truly leads, he remains — a leader. The 
Purist has met that chollenge. It has maintained its 
own expression from the very beginning It has 
endured the test of time through quolity, styling, 
comfort, croftsmonship, superior fobrics . and 
the fovor of generotion after generation of 
well-dressed men. 

What better reason for our president not to hove 
changed his shirt in 36 years.

No one ever gave me a cliaiue to 
Ihink: I had to spend all m\ time trying 
lo figure out what the professor 
wanted to hear. 

And in fact, no one ever im|3lied 
that school was a place lor real learn- 
ing, bv which 1 mean information oi 
experience that results in a change of 
perception, understanding, or behav- 
ior. 

Rather, I was led to believe that the 
purpose of education was to learn to 
do what I was told and to pass exami- 
nations in order to recei\e a ticket of 
admission to the next institution. This 
I did most competently and hnally 
started learning when I got to medical 
school and was at last doing what I 
wanted to do. 

But except for the three R's, which 
I learned mostly at home, I consider 
my first sixteen years in the system as 
a monuinental waste of time and 
couldn't agree more with George Ber-

Information — or 
knowledge? 

Editor: 1 read with interest your 
item on Mr. Shipp's $5U-million pro- 
posal to equip every living being at 
Brown with a personal computer 
(BAM. Mav). While I do not have a 
copv of the complete proposal, I was 
amazed that the article offered essen- 
tiallv no reason why this very expen- 
sive experiment should be undertaken, 
other than a few glib phrases such as 
". . .it will happen anyway" (if so, per- 
haps we should just let it and save the 
considerable outlav). The only substan- 
tive use mentioned is that they could 
be used to ". . .gather data, plot charts 
and graphs, search journals, organize 
research notes, or prepare bibli- 
ographies." Admittedly, these tasks do 
tend to be tedious — especialh to a pro- 
fessor who has written many learned 
papers — but Brown's main interest 
should be training of students. When 
one uses a machine to gather data, one 
implicitlv assumes that whoever pre- 
pared the data for the machine did a 
complete job. If he didn't, the conclu- 
sions the student draws could be 
wrong. Further, if all the student 
knows is how to use a computer to do

Newsweek's Policy Forum. 
It's an advocacy page where you can 
speakout on issues. 

Many corporations and associations have some strong — 
and valid — points of view on issues affecting business 
and society. 

But finding a place to express these views in 
a serious national medium has always been 
difficult. Until now. 

Newsweek's Policy Forum page was cre- 
ated to give you a place to take a stand. To 
speak out and be heard. In fact, it's the only 
advocacy forum available on a national basis in a 
single medium. 
The Policy Forum page is always in the same 
place in Newsweek (opposite the heavily read Periscope page) and 
always looks the same (a simple communications format). What you say is 
said with importance in a place of importance. 
That's why thought leaders like Atari, GTE, The Bell System, the AMA, and NEA have 
chosen Policy Forum to speak out on issues that concern all of us. They know that their point 
of view will get the attention of over 21 million concerned readers. Readers who obviously can 
act on actionable policies. 

Policy Forum is a special page with a special purpose. And Newsweek's Publisher, Charles 
J. Kennedy, will give special attention to any questions ^^ ■

The Courage 

of a Kiowa Warrior 



As this young Kiowa warrior strains toward 
his unseen opponent, his sacred shield 
invokes powers to protect him. He may 
be trying only to touch his enemy 
to "count coup"- and return 
unscathed. For the Plains Indian's 
honor was based on such acts of brav- 
ery, and not on mere killing. 

"The Coup" is one of three sculptures 
depicting 19th-century Plains Indian life 
created by archaeological artist Eve Griffin 
in collaboration with ethnohistorian 
Ellen Wilson, formerly of Brown's 
Haffenreffer Museum of Anthro- 
pology. Eve's lovingly detailed 
sculptures describe Plains 
Indian ornamentation, dress 
and material culture with 
historical accuracy. 

Cast in pewter, about 9 
inches high, $200-3250 apiece 
A limited number of sculptures 
are available.

il hiinsell al I he lihiarv. .Sitiiilar state- 
ments (ould he argued againsi liie use 
of a (omputer by a suideiil with the 
otiiei listed ( hores. 

In another part oi the papei the 
(laim is made that Brown would not 
have to shoulder the hnancial burden 
lor this experiment by itsell, but that 
industry will help out. To a certain 
extent there is a precedent for this in 
that one corporation has indeed 
helped Brown in the past with com- 
puter facilities (and clue in no sinall 
part to the hue gentleman who was 
both an alunuius and the chairman of 
that corporation). Perhaps that sort of 
support might exist for this project. 
Houe\er, if it has not been firmly 
identified, I believe that my twenty- 
seven vears' experience in both univer- 
sities and industry can point to an- 
othei precedent. Industry is forever 
extolling their firm support for the 
universities, but rarely does this sup- 
port manifest itself in serious dollar 
support, at least for any one institu- 
tion. As an example, the corporation 
with which I am associated probably 
donates several million dollars each 
year as part of their akmini fund 
matching-donation program. Certainly, 
this is to be lauded, but I doubt if any 
one institution receives inore than 
one/one-hundredth of this amount. If 
Mr. Shipp's arguments are correct. 
Brown will not be the only school 
flocking to partake of corporate larg- 
ess; frankly, in that case, the funds are 
not there. 

However, my most important point 
in c|uestioning the wisdom of this ex- 
periment lies in the fact that comput- 
ers are very efficient at dispensing in- 
formation. No one has ever accused 
them of even attempting to dispense 
knowledge, although there are those 
who do confuse the two. Brown's char- 
ter — and its only reason for exis- 
tence — deals solely with knowledge. If, 
in the future, I should wish a tele- 
phone number I would be most happy 
to query a coinputer. But if I should 
wish to expand m\ knowledge I would 
consider attending a class and interact- 
ing with a professor — verbally, not 
thiough a keyboard.

Ironi Brown receiilly and neither can 
tell me, nor can any of their (riends, 
why it is called thus. Does your sialT 
writer, Katherine Hinds, know or do 
any of your readers? Certainly, at the 
lime or my giaduation (1951) the re- 
fectory was in use — just — but the nic k- 
namc had yet to suiface. In iatt, I 
worked in the dining hall both there 
and at Faunce House for foui veais 
and remember with particular pleasuie 
that toothless septuagenarian, .'\lfred 
Vogel, who took care of the milk, a 
decent and amusing man. One other 
memor\ is the strictest one-portion 
rule that prevailed; an extra any- 
thing — even a slice of that ghasdy ac- 
cordian-packaged bread — had to be 
paid tor. 

Keep up the good work and do

Common Sense 

Editor; I have just read Paul Ma- 
zur's letter about the conservative 
journal Common Sense (BAM. May). It 
seems to ine that Mr. Mazur has 
passed judgment without even reading 
it. 

I know several of the people in- 
volved with this journal. They are not 
"paid mouthpieces for the Moral Ma- 
jority," Right-wing fanatics may be 
execrable, but so are extiemists and 
fanatics in almost any cause, Mr. Ma- 
zur assumes that all conservatives are 
fanatics. The people I know who 
worked on Common Sense are intelli- 
gent, reasonable students who found 
that there was no published outlet for 
their views on campus, and worked 
hard to establish one. This is how to 
"smash a liberal monopoly" — have the 
courage to publish a conservative 
journal in a liberal environment. 

I don't think that there is, as Mr. 
Mazur states, "everv reason to believe" 
that Common Sense will commit the sins 
he enumerates. He doesn't claim to 
have read it or to know any of the 
people; what other evidence could 
there be? Only his own ahe.idv 
formed ideas about conservati\es .uid 
their writing, and basing judgment on 
such ideas is trulv prejudice.

Recording memories 
of Brown's alumnae 

The Peinlm)ke Arclii\e Project, 
now entering its third year, was born 
soon after Nancy Duke Lewis Pro- 
fessor (and historian) |oan Scott ar- 
ri\ed at Brown in tlie suninier of 
19.SI). "I was moving into ni\ new 
othce in Almiinae Hall," she told an 
SRC) t'.onimencenieni Forum audience 
last June, "when a tour group of po- 
tential Brown students walked past. 
One of them asked, 'What i.s the Pem- 
broke campus?' The student tom- 
guide, a voung woman, answered, 'I 
dunno. I think it was some kind of 
women's lollcgc." " 

Only nine years after the 1971 
Brown-Pembroke merger, current 
Brown students knew little or nothing 
about Pembroke College, the name 
given in 1928 to Brown's coordinate 
college for women, founded in 1891. 
Scott and her colleagues at the Pem- 
bioke Center for Teaching and Re- 
search on Women resolved to remedv 
that deficiency with an oral-histor\ 
project that would involve nearly every 
segment of the Brown commu- 
nity — alumnae, students, facultv, and 
administrators. 

Under the direction of graduate 
student Michelle Oppenhcimer, Brown 
students taking a Special Themes and 
Topics course have inter\iewed be- 
tween thirtv and thirty-five aliminae to 
date, transcribing the interview tapes 
and writing a paper to fulfill the 
course requirement. "They started 
with the oldest classes, and we're now 
up to the mid-3()s classes," Scott says. 
There is no funding for the project, so 
for the most part interviews have been 
with local alumnae, except in a few 
cases when out-of-town alumnae were 
visiting the area. The tapes and tran- 
scripts are being deposited in the 
Brown Archives to await further analy- 
sis and, Scott hopes, incorporation into 
a book on the history of women's edu- 
cation at Brown. "It has been twenty 
vears since Grace Hawk's history of 




Joan Scott sits beneath a portrait of Nancy Duke Lewis. 



Pembroke," Scott notes. It is time not 
only for an update, but for a book that 
will examine the textine of women's 
lives at Pembroke — their emotions, 
dreams, and social and academic expe- 
riences. 

The classes of the 1920s were 
Scott's primary subject at the Com- 
mencement Forum, which, not surpris- 
ingly, was heavily attended by alum- 
nae, particularly those from earlier 
classes. A major theme of the era, 
Scott noted, was the tying together of 
impeccably ladylike behavior and ap- 
pearance with an emphasis on 
"excellent intellectual accomplishment. 
Ihe women told us there were 
rules — lots of them: 'We were used to 
obeying, and we weren't used to pro- 
testing. Life was a lot simpler.' " Early 
Pembroke deans embodied these 
ideals: "Nancy Duke Lewis and Marga- 
ret Morriss were both mentioned for 
their irreproachable behavior, their 
emphasis on discipline, and their ap- 
pearance as authorit\ figures who in- 
spired students to excel. The power of 
the role model," Scott said, "was very 
important in shaping the education of 
women in the '20s. There was a lot of 
individual counseling and nurturing of 
tiie students by a powerful figure. " 

Classes for women at Brown in 
the '20s were held separately, from 
those for men, but the curriciiknn was 
the same, with the exception of biol- 
ogy, which was taught to women "be- 
hind a closed door," noted Scott to the 
audience's amusement. A few classes 
were coeducational. "Two girls took 
economics," Scott said. "Thev reported 
that the boys would snicker at their 
answers." 

Later this summer, Scott elabo- 
rated on the alumnae of the '20s as 
portrayed by their own memories. 
"Socioeconomically, there was a lot of 
variety. The girls from local fami- 
lies — the commuters — tended to be 
from more modest, lower-middle class 
backgrounds; while the dorm students 
tended to be from families with better 
means. " Attitudes about w^omen's edu- 
cation, however, did not seem to vary 



from one group to another. "Most of 
the women had no problem at all con- 
vincing their families they should go to 
college; there was a great sense of se- 
curity about it. Also, there was an as- 
sumption that the women would work 
after college. This was very surprising 
to the student interviewers. 

"We have found that the '20s 
women remained active, either in pav- 
ing careers or as volunteers. The) also 
feel, in retrospect, that the pressure to 
get married back then was not nearly 
as great as it was for later genera- 
tions." "Nobody tnld me to get mar- 
ried," one said emphatically. Another 
alumna told her interviewer, "In the 
'40s and '50s, [the pressure to marrv] 
was positively ridiculous!" 

While she is occupied with a major 
three-year research project on 
"Cultural (Constructions of the Female" 
(BAM. April 1982), Scott still has time 
to keep tabs on the oral history/archive 
project, which she considers her "pet." 
A firm commitment to women's educa- 
tion, she says, "is an important legac\ 
at Brown. Since the merger, the im- 
portance of this commitment has 
faded. We are reminding people in a 
visible way of what that legacy is." 

Scott thinks the interviewing pro- 
cess will continue with alumnae of 
classes up until the Brown-Pembroke 
merger. When the historv is written, 
an epilogue will simimarize develop- 
ments since the merger. 

There are a number of projects 
underway at the Pembroke Center; 
however, Scott says, "This one I really 
love! It connects everything we're do- 
ing. It speaks to the campus commu- 
nity, to alumni and alumnae, to schol- 
arship, and it taps many of our 
resources." And it may insure that 
future campus guides will never again 
have to answer "I dunno" when asked 
what Pembroke was. j\ q 



Campaign for Brown 
totals $182,045,819 

The final total for the Campaign 
for Brown shows that the Universitv 
received 1182,045,819 in gifts and 
pledges, more than $24 million over 
the original goal of $158 million. 

"This remarkable achievement," 
President Swearer said in a statement, 
"would have been unattainable without 
the extraordinary leadership and en- 
thusiasm of those spearheading the 
Campaign. But the response of all 
those involved with the Campaign, 



from the trustees with their paceset- 
ting gifts of S42.6 million to the thou- 
sands of individual alumni across the 
country, has been truly inspiring and 
gratifying. The generosity that we see 
displayed in this Campaign will go far 
toward positioning the University for 
the difficult challenges that lie ahead." 

The chairman of the Campaign, 
Henry D. Sharpe, Jr. '45, added: "It's 
a proud moment for Brown. We sur- 
passed a goal that, when we began this 
Campaign, few thought we could 
achieve. That we succeeded is a credit 
not simply to the University commu- 
nity, but to the environment of Provi- 
dence and the state as a whole. " 

Individual gifts and pledges pro- 
vided the greatest amount — some 
$128.7 million — of the mone\ raised. 
Corporations ga\e approximately $25 
million, foundations $17.8 million, and 
government and associations $10.4 mil- 
lion. 

The campaign's funds will provide 
more than $40 million for scholar- 
ships, fellowships, and academic pro- 
grams. The campaign also provided 
for the creation of eight new endowed 
chairs, the construction of the Olney- 
Margolies Athletic Center, and the 
renovation of the John Hay Library 
and fi\e departmental houses. 



Early retirement option 
opens tenured slots 

Last summer, Professor of English 
A. D. Van Nostrand left his teaching 
position of thirty-one years at Brown 
to take a new jol> as head of the Eng- 
lish department at the Georgia Insti- 
tute of Technology. In his tenure at 
Brown, Van Nostrand garnered con- 
siderable acclaim for his development 
of a new method of teaching "func- 
tional writing," and in 1975 he 
foimded Brown's Center for Research 
in Writing. 

So why did he pull up stakes at 
the unlikely age of sixty — an age when 
most folks are winding down their ca- 
reers, not starting new ones in far-off 
states? 

Part of the answer is Brown's Pol- 
icy on Early Retirement Benefits for 
faculty, adopted by the Corporation in 
May 1 98 1. Similar early-retirement in- 
centive plans ha\e been established by 
a number of other luiiversities and col- 
leges, most notably since Congress 
raised the mandatory retirement age 
from sixty-five to seventy in 1978. 

Brown's policy enabled Van Nost- 



rand to retire rroin Brown at age sixty 
while Kniiiniiiiig to receive 30 percent 
ol liis base salar\ (plus a r)-percent in- 
crease each vear) tor live vears. In 
addition, the rni\ersit\ will conliiiiie 
to [)a\ lieallh insurance ((i\eragc and 
make pension-plan contributions (lut- 
ing that time. Witli that security, \'an 
Nostrand was free to accept the C Geor- 
gia lech job and leave his mark on the 
teaching of writing at yet another insti- 
tution. 

Ten Facultv have retired under 
the earlv retirement option since it 
took effect, and two others have made 
commitments to do so within the next 
two vears. Some of them are pursuing 
new research projects in the Pro\i- 
dence area; others are continuing their 
writing careers without the daily de- 
mands of teaching; and several are uti- 
lizing another new Brown op- 
tion — phased earlv retirement, which 
pays a protessor 60 percent of his or 
her base salary for teaching half-time. 

VV'hv are universities adopting 
early-retirement policies? The answer 
entails, of course, some dollar savings; 
but it boils down to the need to hire 
promising \<)ung scholars while allow- 
ing older facultv members the Hex- 
ibilitv to pursue new directions without 
saci iticing financial stability. 

"Manv American universities, in- 
cluding Brown," says Associate Provost 
James Patterson, former chairman of 
the historv department, "have a fairly 
large percentage of senior facultv rela- 
tive to vounger teniued facultv." This 
lopsidedness is expensive, Patterson 
notes, because of the higher salaries 
that accompany senioritv. "And it is 
difficult to open up positions to hire 
and keep younger faculty, which is 
unfortunate for the health and vitality 
of the academic disciplines. It is detri- 
mental to the University in the long 
run not to hire tiew blood." 

The circumstances were com- 
pounded. Patterson says, by former 
President Jimmy Carter's signing in 
1978 of the age-seventy mandatory re- 
tirement bill, which became applicable 
to tenured faculty in July 1982. "The 
universities already had many tenured 
senior faculty," Patterson says. Now it 
appeared thev would have even larger 
percentages of them. "Universities be- 
gan to address the question, 'How do 
people who might want to retire as 
soon as they are eligible dare to do so, 
financially speaking?' " 

Behind Brown's earlv-ietirement 
policy, savs Patterson, is "a cai lot " of 
sorts for senior facultv between the 
ages of sixtv and sixty-seven who have 



seived the Uni\ersitv lor at least 
fifteen years. A professor between 
sixtv and sixt\-five who opts for full 
eailv retirement gels SO percent of his 
base salai\; at age sixlv-six, the pei- 
ceutage of the base salarv drops to 20; 
and at age (i7, it falls to 10 percent. 

Piofessors who afreacfy ha\e cho- 
sen earfy retiiement are R. V. Cassiil, 
of English; A. Hunter Diipree, history; 
Klliot R. (ioodman, political science 
(whose phased retirement will begin in 
1984-83); Edwin Honig, English; A. 
David Rossoff, Hispanic ancf Italian 
studies; Haiold W. Pfautz, sociology; 
Robert G. Potter, jr., sociologv; James 
E. Schevill, English (who is teaching 
part-time at Blown under the phased 
retiretnent plan); Peter A. Stewart, bi- 
ology; Van Nostrand; and Paul B. 
VVeisz, biologv. 

"Neither the oiigin of the polics 
nor its implementation," stresses Pat- 
terson, "is aimed at getting rid of sen- 
ior faculty. Brown is making an as- 
sumption that there are manv things a 
person in his or her sixties might like 
to do in a fulfilling way, without hav- 
ing to worry about supporting them- 
selves. The policy does not serve only 
institutional needs." 

When a senior faculty member 
retires, however, it is possible to hire a 
junior-level faculty inember for as little 
as half of the foriner's base salary. 
"But saving money," Patterson insists, 
"wasn't the point. And sometimes we 
might hire another distinguished sen- 
ior person to replace the retired pro- 
fessor." 

A side benefit of the early retiie- 
meni option may be that Biown can 
hasten its fulfillment of affirmative- 
action hiring goals. "Of the ten vacan- 
cies created to date," Patterson says, "it 
appears that six have been filled, one 
way or another, and that four of the 
new faculty members are women." 

Patterson is sensitive to senior fac- 
ultv's feelings about the early retire- 
ment option. "I tread a fine line," he 
says. "It's my job to let the faculty 
know about this policy. But we don't 
want them to think the administration 
is pushing its loyal sons and daughters 
out the door." This harclK seems to be 
the case, with laut a dozen piofessors 
choosing or expressing the intention to 
choose the early letirement plan to 
date. The plan's result, rather, has 
been to open some tenure-track posi- 
tions — a luxury (some would call it a 
necessity) Brown has missed sorely 
during the last decade. .4,/). 




Samuel Babbitt: "Exceptional candidate." 

Samuel Babbitt named 
vice president 

Samuel Eisher Babbitt, formerly 
vice president of Memorial Sloan-Ket- 
tering Cancer (Center in New York 
City, has been appointed vice presi- 
dent for development. Babbitt replaces 
Robert A. Seiple '65, who left the posi- 
tion in Julv to become president of 
Eastern College and The Eastern Bap- 
tist Theological Seminarv, in Philadef- 
phia. 

Babbitt's new job responsibiiities 
include planning, organizing, and di- 
recting all fimd-raising efforts for ttie 
Universitv. He wiif direct a staff of 
eightv with a budget of 12.6 million. 

Prior to his post at Memorial 
Sloan-Kettering. where he supervised a 
staff of seventv and was responsible 
for fund-raising ancf externat affairs. 
Babbitt was the founding president of 
Kirkland C^ollege in Clinton, New 
^'ork. He held that position for twelve 
vears before Kirkland merged with 
Hamiiton ('ollege. which is also in 
Clinton. Babbitt's other acadetnic ex- 
perience was as assistant dean at \'ale 
C.raduate School, and dean of men at 
Vanderbilt Universitv in Nashville, 
lennessee. In 1961 he served a \ear 
in the Peace Corps in Washington, 
D.C., as chief of the College and Uni- 
versitv Liaison Office in the Office of 
Public Affairs. 

Born and educated in New 
Haven. Babbitt received a B.A., an 
M.A., and a Ph.D. in .American stud- 
ies, all fioni \'ale. His wife, Natalie 
Babbitt, is the author of many books 
for children, including the award-win- 
ning Turk Everlaslinif. 

"Samuel Babbitt's experience in 
both fiuicf-raising and the fieid of edu- 
cation make him an exceptional candi- 
date to continue the tiemanding task 



of lielping Brown meet its financial 
challenges," said President Howard 
Swearer when he announced the ap- 
pointment. "With the conclusion of 
our five-year Champaign for Brown I 
am confident that his expertise will 
help us maintain liie momentum we 
iiave establisiied with the Campaign's 
imprecedented success. We are fortu- 
nate that a person with his broad ex- 
perience has chosen to work in the 
service of Brown." K.H. 



The good and bad news 
about life at Brown 

A thirty-member committee ap- 
pointed last January by President 
Howard Swearer to study and report 
on community life at Brown has re- 
commended additional study and pos- 
sible changes in several areas. 

Chaired by Professor of Physics 
Philip Bray '48, the group split into 
three subcommittees to focus on 
specific problems evident on campus in 
recent years. The Subcommittee on 
Interactions, chaired by Assistant Pro- 
fessor of History Mary Gluck, looked 
at social life and group interaction, 
particularly intolerant and anti-social 
beha\ior indicative of racisrii, sexism, 
religious bigotrv, and intolerance ol 
gav students. The Subcommittee on 
Abuses, chaired by Special Assistant to 
the Dean of the College Donald Scott, 
studied the causes, manifestations, and 
consequences of substance (e.g., alco- 
hol and drug) abuse bv students. The 
Subcommittee on Residential Organi- 
zation, chaired h\ Professor of Psy- 
chology Bryan Shepp, e\aluated the 
way residential life is organized and 
how it affects the academic and social 
experiences of students. 

"(jtiite positive in tone," is how 
Dean of Student Life Eric Widmer de- 
scribes the report. Indeed, the CCC: pre- 
faced its recommendations by noting "a 
wide appreciation tor the many positive 
aspects of life at Blown. The cpiality ol 
life for most students is apparently 
good, and many have emphasized . . . 
their positive feelings about programs, 
facilities, and people at Brown. Appre- 
ciative cominents have been received 
about many elements of the Office of 
Student Life . . . many faculty, various 
residential units, athletic facilities, aca- 
demic programs." The report. Bray 
wrt)te, should be considered in "this 
context of general satisfaction and ap- 
proval. " Widmer adds, however, that 
the report "was supposed to be diagnos- 



tic, so it would be strange if it didn't 
make note of problems, too." 

That it does. The committee 
found "serious problems concerning 
racism, sexism, bigotry and antiosocial 
liehavior," its report states. "A signifi- 
cant number of minority groups. . . 
experience some degree of discomfort 
. . .and some have been the victims of 
statements or acts that are racist or 
based on ethnic or religious considera- 
tions. " Women continue to experience 
sexual harassment, the report says, 
and tolerance for the sexual prefer- 
ence of fellow students is not always 
high. Alcohol abuse, rowdyism and 
vandalism, and feelings of isolation in 
the residence halls are other de- 
ficiencies noted bv the committee. 

"Brown is not distinct from the 
general society in harboring individu- 
als who are intolerant and capable of 
behaving in repugnant and unaccepta- 
l)le ways," the report adds. But, "the 
continuing task for all members of the 
conummitv is to make such Ijehaxioi 
imattractive and p.iinful to potential 
perpetrators, while implementing ways 
to educate people awav from these at- 
titudes and practices." 

Fraternities and the Wriston 
Quadrangle residence area received 
the most criticism from all three sulj- 
committees. "Every committee got 
drowned in complaints," says Bray. 
" riie one overwhelming thing tliat 
kept striking us was the conditions in 
Wriston Quad — the very juvenile, im- 
mature attitudes there; the harassment 
of women and minorities; the cat- 
calls — the whole level of behavior came 
across as absolutely unacceptable. Wri- 
ston Quad is by no means composed 
only of fraternities, " adds Bra\ . "But as 
people identified groups and situations 
where there were problems, it seemed 
always to center on the fraternities. " 

The committee left the fraternity 
question open for further discussion in 
the Brown commiuiitv, but it did make 
specific recommendations about other 
aspects of life at Brown. Some of them 
are: 

Sopliuniiiies: "A loss of community" 
after the freshman year, the scattering 
of classmates in residence halls across 
campus, reduced counseling services, 
and other factors led the committee to 
advise housmg students together bv 
class when possible and increasing 
academic advising services for sopho- 
mores. 

Freshmen: Orientation programs 
designed to minimize the potential lor 
racism, sexism, and other forms of 
bigotry should be strengthened and 



increased. Resident counselors should 
be better trained to "inculcate values 
and community standards that are 
expected at Brown." 

Facility Fellows: The Faculty Fel- 
lows Program should be expanded, as 
it is clear that "faculty-student contact 
lias decreased over the years." 

Alcohol abuse: While ""excellent 
people and programs exist" to help 
students who abuse alcolicjl, ""programs 
to discourage the pervasive 'ethic of 
drink' and the focusing of social events 
on alcohol need continued support 
and strengthening." The committee 
also specifically recommends the dis- 
continuation of week-night "open 
bars" held in dormitories. 

Resident coiniselors: These should 
be older students (many are sopho- 
mores) with inore training and super- 
vision than is now provided. The pcjsi- 
tions should be made more attractive 
by means of recognition and stipends. 

Other recommendations in the re- 
port focused on improving security on 
campus and providing more lounges 
and other common space in the resi- 
dence halls. 

While the report is intended only 
to make recommendations based on 
the committee's evaluations, it may 
result in some changes in the way 
campus life is organized and overseen. 
The bottom line, as usual, is availabil- 
ity of funds. "Where the recommenda- 
tions of the report have a budgetary 
impact," says Widmer, "we will have to 
be careful that we're planning well, 
spending money for effects we ulti- 
mately want. And that will first entail 
further committee study in some 
areas. " 

Widmer and Bray agree, however, 
that the report supports the Universi- 
ty's move in recent years toward more 
oversight in the area of student life. 
""We're talking about reasserting some 
University role in students' total expe- 
rience here," W'idmer says. "Otherwise, 
we might as well be running a hotel. 
Howard Swearer came here with a 
strong feeling that a universitv campus 
should come together as a community. 
He set up a review of student life [the 
1979 ""Gurowitz Report"] and agreed 
immediately to establish the Student 
Life Office four years ago. The Uni- 
versity really hasn't attempted to legis- 
late a morality, " Widmer says. "We're 
providing reference points for stu- 
dents, and we're reaching out to them, 
not just sitting back and waiting for 
problems." 

"I trust we stress educational 
fimctions more than just legislating

PEOPLE 



Israel James Kapstein "25, a re- 
tired Brown English piofessor. novel- 
ist, and poet, died of cancer on August 
5 at Miriam Hospital in Providence. 
He was seventy-nine. 

Professor Kapstein was known to 
his students and friends as "Kappv." 
During his forty years of teaching 
romantic and C(jntemporarv literature, 
he was considered one of the most 
dedicated and insightful members of 
the Brown facultv — as well as one of 
the most popular. He was often the 
"favorite professor" of Pembroke stu- 
dents. Last December, Marvyn Carton 
'38 (who had taken only one course 
with Professor Kapstein) donated SI 
million to establish a pnjfessorship in 
his name. 

Israel Kapstein was born in Fall 
River, Massachusetts. With his child- 
hood friend, S.J. Perelman '25, he at- 
tended Classical High School and 
Brown, graduating in 1926. The two 
of them then shared an apartment in 
Greenwich Village while Kapstein 
worked at a publishing hrni by day, 
and perfected his writing by night. 




Soon he was enjoving consider.ible 
success. Several of his poems weie ac- 
cepted by I'ueliy, and his stoiies ap- 
peared in Collier's and Cmtd Huusekcep- 
nig. In 1937 he published a novella, 
/"/((' Song the Summer Eiieiiirig Sings, and 
in 1941 a best-selling novel, Sumelhing 
of a Hero. 

In 1927 he returned to Biowii as 
an English instructor, earning his A.M. 
two years later and his Ph.D. in 1933. 
He became assistant professor in 1940 
and a full professor by 1951. Professor 
Kapstein was awarded a Guggenheim 
Fellowship, and in 1961 was chosen as 
a visiting professor of American litera- 
ture at the University of Saigon. He 
retired from Brown eight years later. 

During the latter part of his life, 
he vigorously pursued his writing, ris- 
ing early to work on a novel in prog- 
ress as well as a scholarly text on Col- 
eridge. 

He was awarded the 1976 Na- 
tional Jewish Book Award for his part 
in a collaborative translation of ancient 
Hebrew texts entitled Pesikia De-Rah 
Kahana: R. Kcihana's Compilation oj Dis- 
courses for Sabbaths and Festal Da\s. 

His professional and community 
affiliations included Temple Emanuel, 
Miriam Hospital, the Providence Pub- 
lic Library, the Modern Language 
Association, the College Entrance 
Examination Board, and the board of 
editors of the Brown Alumni Monthly. 

He is survived by his wife, Stella, 
63 Dexterdale Road, Providence: a 
son, Jonathan '61, Johannesburg cor- 
respondent for Business Week; and a 
daughter, Judith Brodsky, associate 
provost of the Newark cainpus of Rut- 
gers University. 

Robert Webb Kenny '25, a former 
Brown dean and professor of English, 
died at his home in Providence on June 
12. He was eighty-one. 

Dean Kenny was born in Sonier- 
ville, Massachusetts. He attended Mer- 
cersburg Academy in Pennsylvania and 
Brown, graduating in 1925. He re- 
ceived his A.M. at Brown a year later, 
and his Ph.D. in 1933. After a year as 
an exchange professor in Bulgaria, he 
returned to become associate professor 
of English at the University. 

World War II interrupted his 
teaching duties, and he served with 
distinction, rising to the rank of lieu- 
tenant colonel in the U.S. Armv. He 
was awarded the Bronze Star with Oak 
Leaf Cluster and remained in the 
Army Reserves until 1960, when he 
retired as a brigadier general and 
commander of the 76th division. 




In 1946, the University appointed 
him dean of students and then dean of 
the College — a position he held until 
1951. In 1961, he served as dean of 
Pembroke College for one year; he 
was the only man ever to hold that 
office. He was made a full professor at 
Brown, and retired in 1971 as chair- 
man of the English department. 

Dean Kennv received a Brown 
Bear Award from the Associated 
Alumni, and Brown awarded him an 
honorary degree in 1975. "Tew men 
have borne more titles, worn more 
hats, than you," the citation read. 
"Twice a dean, first at Brown and then 
at Pembroke, vou administered those 
two colleges with wisdom, compassion, 
and an administrator's most essential 
ingredient — a gentle but perceptive 
wit." 

The husband of the late Gertrude 
Brady Kenny, Dean Kenny was execu- 
tive director and secretary of the 
Rhode Island Foundation from 1955 
to 1974, as well as a trustee of the 
Rhode Island School of Design and 
the Providence Public Library. He is 
survived by a daughter, Susan; and a 
son, Robert, Jr. '55, of 67 Taber Av- 
enue, Providence. 

Two membeis of the Brown med- 
ical faculty who have touched the lives 
of everv medical student at Brown in 
the last eighteen years. Peter and Ba- 
bette Stewart, retired in June anil 
moved to their house on t^rane Island, 
one of the San Juan Islands off the 
coast of Washington State. 

The Stewarts came to Brown in 



1965 as teachers. Peter remained a 
professor of medical science through- 
out the years while Babette switched to 
administration as the first — and thus 
far only — assistant dean of biology and 
medicine. Peter played a significant 
role in the creation first of the six-year 
medical science master's degree pro- 
grams, and later of the Progiani in 
Medicine. In addition to teaching 
courses in his field of physiology, in- 
cluding the ever-popular Bio 6. he was 
academic program director of the 
$1.6-million Commonwealth Fimd In- 
terface Program, which integrates 
medical education with the rest of the 
University curriculum. 

Babette, who was instrumental in 
designing courses in ph\siolog\, was 
best known to every student who 
passed through the seven-sear Medical 
Education Program. She worked with 
the admission office in choosing 
among the applicants to the program 
and provided counseling and sup[)()rt 
for those who were accepted. 

On Crane Island. Peter is plan- 
ning to continue work on a book, 
while Babette intends to learn Morse 
code — their new home has no tele- 
phone service. 

The John Carter Brown Library 
has a new director. 

Norman Fiering, former acting 
director of the Institute of Earlv 
American Historv and Cultiue in Wil- 
liamsburg. Virginia, has been named 
librarian and director. He will have 
responsibility for the care and en- 
hancement of the collection, for max- 
imizing its scholarly use, and for in- 
creasing its public outreach through 
exhibits and other means. He succeeds 
Thomas R. Adams, who has iseen li- 
brarian since 1957. 

The John Carter Brown Librar\ 
houses one of the world's outstanding 
collections of early and rare Ameri- 
cana. Fiering, who has taught Ameri- 
can and intellectual history at the Col- 
lege of William and Mary and courses 
at Stanford University and Clolumbia 
College, has been editor of publica- 
tions at the institute since 1972. He 
was a National Endowment for the 
Humanities fellow and he received an 
award from the Organization of Amer- 
ican Historians for the best books in 
American intellectual history published 
in 1981-82 for Junalhan Edwards's 
Moral Thuughl and Its British Context 
and Moral Philosophy at Seventeenth- 
Centiiiy Haivard: A Discipline in Tran- 
sition. 



Harriet Sheridan, dean of the Col- 
lege, has been elected vice-chair of the 
board of directors of the American 
Association for Higher Education. 

Sheridan will serve a four-year 
term on the board and will chair the 
committee in 1985-86. The AAHE, a 
national organization based in Wash- 
ington, D.C., is composed of presi- 
dents, deans, professors, students, and 
officers from government, founda- 
tions, and associations. Dining her 
term as vice-chair, Sheridan will shape 
the agenda for the AAHE's annual 
national conference, which is regarded 
as a major forum for the examination 
of important educational issues. 

Dr. David Nichols, chairman of 
obstetrics and gynecology for the Pro- 
gram in Medicine, has been named 
president-elect of the Society of Gyne- 
cologic Surgeons for a one-year term 
that will begin next February. Nichols 
is also obstetrician/gvnecologist-in-chief 
at Women and Infants Hospital. 

Edward A. Mason, who has been 
an engineering and chemistry profes- 
sor at Brown since 1967, has been 
named the Newport Rogers Professor 
of Chemistry, succeeding Leallyn 
Clapp, who retired last year. 

Mason's research has focused on 
the pioperties of gases, and he is 
working on a book on the transport 
properties of ions in gases. An exten- 
sive list of his publications includes 
more than 250 works. 

The chair is named for William 
Sanford Rogers, who provided 
$5(),()()() in his 1 866 will for Brown to 
endow a chemistrv professorship. He 
asked that the chair be named New- 
port Rogers because he wanted to be 
remembeied as having been born in 
Newport. 

Four members of the Brown fac- 
ulty have been honored with grants 
and fellowships from the Henry Mer- 
ritt Wriston Fimd for their contribu- 
tions to the quality of undergraduate 
education. 

Wriston Fellowships, given to 
untenined jimior faculty to recognize 
their extensive contributions to im- 
proving undergraduate teaching, enti- 
tle the winners to a semester's leave at 
full salary. The two recipients this 
year: 

Martha Schaffer, assistant pro- 
fessor of Hispanic and Italian studies, 
who has worked on revising and im- 
pro\ing the department's language 
courses. She has supervised the gradu- 



ate students who serve as teaching as- 
sistants and developed the depart- 
ment's newest course, "Spanish for the 
Health (^are Professions." Schaffer, 
who has Ijeen at Brown since 1980, is a 
historical linguist. She plans to use the 
fellowship to pursue her work on the 
formation and evolution of nasal vow- 
els in Portugese and intends to spend 
part of the semester in Portugal. 

and Steve Rabson, assistant pro- 
fessor of Japanese in the linguistics 
department, who has been a significant 
force in the development of Brown's 
Japanese language program since he 
arrived in 1979. He has taught on the 
first- and second-year level and 
worked on independent studies with 
students on a more advanced level as 
well as teaching modern Japanese 
fiction in English translation. Rabson, 
who coordinates the Brown-Keio ex- 
change program, will use his fellow- 
ship to research part of a comprehen- 
sive studv of war and literature in 
modern Japan. 

The University has also awarded 
Wriston Grants of $1,500 to two fac- 
ulty inembers. The grants are awarded 
to any member of the faculty to sup- 
port special projects that go beyond 
regular teaching duties. 

Walter Feldman, professor of art, 
will use his grant to explore the field 
of papermaking. 

Alison Elliott, assistant professor 
of classics, will be studying the use of 
the computer and computer-assisted 
instruction as it applies to the teaching 
of Latin and Greek. She has begun to 
use the computer to fill the need for 
drilling on graminar and vocabulary 
and she hopes to extend its use to 
more drilling programs and to help 
students work through the material at 
their own pace. 



TO OUR READERS: 

Yes, this issue does look different. 
F"or the first time in fourteen years, the 
Brown Alumni Monthly has changed 
its basic design. 

Our guide for this change is the 
Baltimore firm of Ashton-Worthington, 
with whom we have been working for 
almost a year. 

The typeface for the text and heads 
is Baskerville. The standing heads are in 
Bauer text and initials. Possibly the most 
notable change is that all lines in the 
magazine are justified — no more 
ragged right. 

We invite your comments.

A star quarterback and 
some question marks 

Prospects lor the upioniiiig toot- 
ball season may not be uniformly 
bright, but things could be a lot worse. 
Last vear at this time. Brown was com- 
ing oil a 'S-l season — its hrst losing 
campaign in nine years under head 
coach John Anderson. There were big 
question marks on both offense and 
defense, and three more or less un- 
tried candidates for quarterback. 

riiis vear, some uncertainties 
remain for Bruin fans, but at least 
they can be sure about their quarter- 
back. They know who he's going to be: 
Co-Captain Joe Potter "84. And they 
know what he's capable of: Passing 
and running and racking up record 
yardage. Potter was switched from 
defensive back to quarterback last fall, 
and wound up setting a Brown single- 
season record for total ollense. He 
scrambled for 607 yards (including 
eight touchdowns), passed for 1,516 
yards (including seven touchdowns), 
and was picked for All-New England 
honors. A quick look at statistics sug- 
gests that Potter, as an experienced 
senior, should be one of the best in the 
league. 

The teain battled through a con- 
fusing and, in some ways, contradic- 
tory season in 1982. The offense, 
sparked by Potter and now-graduated 
backs Bill Barrett and Rod Jones, 
scored three or more touchdowns in 
seven games. The defense was sig- 
nificantlv improved, and the Bruins 
began the season by beating \'ale for 
the fust time since 1976. 

On the sinister side. Brown al- 
lowed Princeton to overcome a 17-0 
deficit, failed to capitalize on a last- 
minute scoring opportunity in the 
Penn game, and was taken apart bv 
Harvard in front of 30.000 blood- 
thirsty and thoroughly Crimson fans. 
The Bruins finished up at 5-5 (3-4 
Ivy), although depending on your 
point of view, they could have been 
8-2 or 2-8. Brown was a victor by 
seven points, four points, and one 



point, and lost games bv five, three, 
and six points. 

But no use fretting about what 
might have been. A new season ap- 
proaches, bringing with it a large con- 
tingent of new varsity plavers. Twenty- 
one football lettermen. including 
fourteen starters, received diplomas 
last spring. "We have some big gaps to 
fill in every area," says Anderson, "but 
especially on the offensive line and in 
the defensive backfield." Brown lost its 
five top receivers, All-East defensive 
lineman (^huck McGrath, and All-Ivy 
piniter Pete Bogdanovich. Anderson is 
hoping that Steve Heffernan '85, his 
brother, Brian Heffernan '86, and/or 
Kennv Jones '85 can make him torget 
the loss of Barrett and Rod Jones in 
the backfield. 

Rich Chapman '85 looks as if he'll 
inherit the tight end position; Vince 
Stephens '85 and Pat Tuichick '86 are 
other receivers to keep an eve on. The 
offensixe line appears a bit thin, but it 
is adequately anchored by leturnees 
Bob Mangiacotti '84, Jeff Trauger '84, 
and Jeff Nikora '84 at center. 

C:o-Captain John Daniel '84 is 
Ijack at middle guard on the defensive 
line, and is counted on to make All-Ivy 
this vear. Thom Heckard '84 will be 
returning at end, with the other spots 
promising to be hotiv contested. Den- 
nis Slott '84 and Brian O'Neill '84 
seem to be the key figures at line- 
backer, as does Mike Gibbons '84 at 
defensive back. Brown's secondary is 
unsettled; honorable mention Ail- 
American Jeff Gradinger will certainlv 
be missed there. 

The kicking game may be rescued 
by another Bogdanovich, Pete's 
brother Paul '86, who averaged 36 
yards per punt for the freshmen last 
year. John Clallander "84 and Chris 
Ingerslev '86 will fight for the place- 
kicking Job. 

"There are a lot of question 
marks," suminarizes Anderson, "but I 
feel we will have more team speed this 
season, and probably more depth. II 
we solve our problems. . .we can be 
very competitive within the League."

Harvard, Dartmouth, and Penn 
shared the Ivy title last year, with 
Brown, Cornell, Yale, and Princeton 
grouped at 3-4, and Columbia lagging 
behind at 1-6. Harvard, which led the 
league in both scoring offense and 
defense, lost fifteen starters at gradua- 
tion — including nine All-Ivy [)icks. 
Dartmouth looks strong, with two ex- 
perienced quarterbacks and receiver 




John Dalv, who is closing in on a

marks. Penn will rely on its detense 
(seven regulars returning), while Cor- 
nell has few returnees and a rookie

playing five of its seven Ivv contests in 
New Ha\en. Led by the league's top

miss quarterback Brent Woods, and 
promises to be almost as generous on

Sports Foundation aims 
to ensure excellence 

Al the so-called "hig-lime l(i<nb.iH" 
universities, lootb.ill .ind, to an increas- 
ing extent. I)askell).iil |)ro\ide the re\- 
enue that pays for the entiie athletii 
program. At the I\\ League mii\ersi- 
ties, oi\ the (iliifi hand, the athletic 
program is regaided as a legitimate 
part ol the educational program — and 
the ediicaiion.il budget. 

Brown is, in President Suearei's 
woids. "tiving to maintain a balanced 
athletic program tor men and women 
which fits into the total educational 
process. That the large majority of ath- 
letic expenses are paid b\ the general 
College budget is a telling factor and 
explains our interest in, and commit- 
ment to, a well-rounded athletic pro- 
giam." But Brown's "commitment to 
excellence in all its endeavors" costs, in 
the case of athletics, far more than the 
athletic programs bring in in revenue. 
In the 1983-84 University budget, ath- 
letic expenses are projected at approx- 
imateh S.3 million, income at 
$500,000. 

How does the Universit\ begin to 
close the gap between athletic income 
and expense — and. not incidentallv. to 
free some of the dollars spent on ath- 
letics for use in such areas as financial 
aid. facultv salaries, and librar\ acc)ui- 
sitions? One new answer is the Brown 
L'ni\ersitv Sports Foundation, which 
has been established as a result of the 
inspiration and drive of several 
alumni, led bv .Artemis Joukovvsky '55. 
The foundation will raise monev for 
Brown's sports programs and. the di- 
rectors hope, will eventually endow the 
entire athletic program. 

.According to Scott Thomson '71. 
associate director of dexelopment who 
is the foundation's executi\e director, 
the foundation will seek money for 
endowment and for an annual fund. 
In October, the foundation will launch 
a mini-capital campaign for athletics, 
the goal of which is to raise enough 
monev — estimated at about S2() mil- 
lion — to endow the entire program. 
Funds contributed to this campaign 
will be invested. Initiallv. 75 percent of 
the income from these in\estments will 
be applied to endowment for the ath- 
letic department's operating budget to 
provide relief for the main Universitv 
budget. The remaining 25 percent will 
be used for "enhancement " — items to 
improve or replace equipment or facil- 
ities, such as a new scoreboard, or for 
items such as letter sweaters that in 




Sf)orts Foundation President Art Joukovvsky '55. 



recent \ears ha\e been cut from the 
budget. 

The foundation has also created 
the Friends of Brown Athletics as an 
annual fund for the sports programs. 
Thomson points out that the major 
sports have "friends" organizations 
now, such as the Blown Football .Asso- 
ciation. "Football is the strongest of 
these organizations, but a single donor 
ma\' get ten diiferent appe.ils from as 
many sports in a year. The foundation 
will be an umbrella organization to 
coordinate fund-iaising for all athletics 
at the University" .Although the foun- 
dation's leaders are emphasizing the 
importance of unrestricted gilts, those 
wishing to contribute to a specific sjjort 
niav still do so. The foimdation will 
serve as the conduit for such gifts. 

The man whom former Vice Pres- 



ident for Development Robert A. Sei- 
ple '65 calls (he "inspiration" for the 
foundation is .Art Joukowskv, who. 
Seiple savs, has put "countless hours" 
into its establishment. 

|oukowsk\. who with his wife 
Martha '58. a Brown trustee, has been 
a generous supporter of the Uni\er- 
sit\ . told the George Si. jdurmil. the 
Uni\ersit\'s campus newspapei . that 
he thinks Brown has gone through "an 
exliaordinar\ renaissance. .At this time 
in its historv, it has self-confidence; it 
has grown into a great institution, one 
of the highest-ranked in the world. We 
ha\e a tradition of excellence at 
Blown. \Vh\ do we have to ignore one 
of its most active areas — sports?" 

Joukowsk\. who will be president 
of the foundation, points out that it 
will appeal particularlv to those inter-

Foundation's executive director. 

ested in sports, and he feels their 
numbers are considerable. "There's 
nothing more emotional than a crowd 
at a sports event." he told the Jdiiiiuil. 
"Let's capture that emotion for 
Broun. " 

Newh-elected Broun trustee Rich- 
ard F. Carolan '58 agrees with Jou- 
kowsky. Carolan, who has been closely 
involved with Brown football as a 
plaver in the 1950s and as a member 
of the Broun Football Association, will 
be a director of the foundation. He 
says, "Unless entities such as this, 
which appeal to special interest 
groups, are funded adequaleK. pro- 
grams as we have known them, and 
their ability to remain financially 
healthy, will definitelv be ini]5aired. .A 
central type of fiuid-raising effort with 
the help of professionals such as the 
Broun dexelopment office will be a 
much more effective way of raising 
monev for athletics than the uav we 
have been doing it in the past " 

The board of directors of the 
foundation includes Joukowsky, Caro- 
lan, Kip H. C^ohen '50, three members 
of the Broun (Corporation (Chancellor 
Richard .Salomon '32, Alfred H. Joslin 
"35, and Vernon R. Alden '45), and 
three L'niversitv officers ex offjcia (Pres- 
ident Swearer, Vice President for Fi- 
nance and Administiation Frederick 
Bohen, and Athletic Director )ohn 
Parry '65). 

For the foundation's kickoff next 
month. )oukowsk\ will have some 



good news: $1.6 million has alreadv 
been pledged toward its goal.

Rowing alumni plan 
two fall events 

1983 was an exciting season for 
fans of the Brown crew. They watched 
the varsity boat win the Intercollegiate 
Rowing Regatta, place a close second 
at the Eastern Sprints, and a third at 
the Collegiate Rowing Championships. 

Some added excitement was 
caused bv Broun equipment faikues at 
critical moinents (not an unusual oc- 
currence in crew). Seconds before the 
start of the championship race at the 
IRAs in Syracuse, Jon Smith '83 snap- 
ped his oar. In CCincinnati at the Na- 
tionals, Captain CChris Ravenscroft '83 
caused a great deal of concern among 
the loval Broun contingent bv break- 
ing his seat. 

Though both of these problems 
were remedied in time, they may have 
played a part in inspiring the Brown 
Rowing Association and other friends 
of the crew^ to chip in for some new 
materials. Two new shells have been 
added to the current roster at Marston 
Boat House, and a 50-foot shell car- 
rier, alread\ deli\ered to Broun, will 
be formally dedicated before the 
Alumni Row on October 1 . 

According to Charles Lexeroni '51 
of the Brown Rowing Association, the 
fall season holds a busy schedule for 
those associated with Brown crew and 
the Brown Rowing .Association. This 
includes a Stewards meeting and 
alumni regatta during the Princeton 
Homecoming Weekend, October 1, 
and a reception for all friends of 
Brown rowing at the Algonquin Club 
in Boston on October 22 — the day 
before the Head of the Charles Re- 
gatta.

SYMBOLS OF A 
CHANGING TIME 





By Katherine Hinds 
Photographs by John Foraste 

%. W ohann Gutenberg detonated 
the information explosion 500 
years ago, when the first pages of 
the Bible rolled off his printing 
press. The implications of move- 
able type were enormous, and no 
one could foresee the conse- 
quences of that one moment in the 
history of technology. 

Today Brown is poised to be- 
gin an experiment that may have 
as equally strong an impact on the 
life of the mind as the Gutenberg 
press. The University has em- 
barked on a proposal to spend $50 
to $70 million in the next six years 
to equip each faculty member, 
student, administrator, and staff 
member on campus with a power- 
ful new type of personal computer 
{BAM. May). 

"We are looking at a massive 
change in intellectual society," says 
Andries van Dam, chairman of the 
computer science department and 
one of the architects of the propo- 
sal. "If you aren't scared about the 
miplications of this change, how 
it's going to revolutionize teaching 
and research, you're not thinking." 

The University commimit) has 
had several months to think about 
the computer proposal and how it 
is going to affect the quality of 
education and the quality of life at 
Brown. Many of the questions that 
are being raised have no an- 
swers — and won't for years, even 
generations — and as van Dam says, 
"We don't even know what most of 
the questions are. 

"It's 1905 and you have seen 
your first horseless carriage drive 
down the street" he offers as anal-

ogy. "Voiir job is to [)l.iii ihc im- 
pact of this niachiiif on ilie Amer- 
ican econom\ . societ\, iiifra- 
stiiKture. 1 liiniv about vviiat peo- 
|)le must have felt lii<e, the pre- 
tliclions thev must have made. 
We're not the inventors of the new 
c()m|)iiter technology, but we're 
among the first wave of ardent 
entiiusiasts. I feel we don't iviiovv 
aiivthing about the impact at this 
point." 

Perfiaps the hrst question is. 
Why now? What is it that makes 
the time ripe to attempt an exper- 
iment of this scale and nature? 

"It's a question of what's 
happening in the world out there," 
explains \an Dam. "There is a 
growing awareness among com- 
puter manufacturers that worksta- 
tions are the wa\e of the future." 

Associate Provost Bill Shipp: 
'We have the opportunity 
to shape the new technology 
and to do it in a way that 
is appropriate to Brown' 

The scholar's workstation is a 
package of computing tools that 
lies at the heart of the project. In 
the beginning, the workstations 
will provide secretarial functions, 
but soon, as libraries and other 
databases become accessible t(j 
computers, the workstations could 
be used more like research assis- 
tants. "We've been working longer 
on the workstation than most 
schools. We have a track record in 
using them, not just research on 
them. We're the only ones with a 
teaching lab like the Gould Lab 
(BAM, November 1982), and we've 
been pioneers in the graphics area, 
which is an important part of what 
workstations are all about. No one 
else has even a year's worth of ex- 
perience using workstations in the 
classroom setting, and although we 
have only a vear's worth — which is 
minimal — it's the old story that in 
the land of the blind, the one-eyed 
is king. We are the one-eyed in 
this land-of-blind use of worksta- 
tions in the classroom." 

That one year of experience 

has made Brown look good to

lurks," says van Dam. "The com- 
panies come here, and we blow 
their socks off with all kinds of 
stuff they haven't seen at other 
major schools." 

There is no doubt in anyone's 
mind that ccjinputers are becom- 
ing — have become — a presence in 
education that can no longer be 
ignored. Students are ahead) 
bringing their personal computers 
to campus and asking where to 
plug them in. William Shipp, asso- 
ciate provost for computing, says, 
"There is a belief among zealots 
that this is going to happen no 
matter what we do. If you accept 
that fact and realize that it has the 
potential for major social 
change — both positive and neg- 
ative — and if you realize that many 
schools with different goals may be 
shaping the technology, you come 
to the conclusion that ive have the 
opportunity to shape the new 
technology, too, and to do it in a 
way that's really appropriate tcj 
Brown." 

"If we don't plan for it," adds 
head librarian Merrily Taylor, "it's 
going to happen anyway, and in a 
haphazard way. Things may hap- 
pen that wouldn't necessarily be 
good for a liberal arts environ- 
ment. I am nc:)t even sure I could 
speculate what some of those 
things are. But think of the way 
people grumble about computers 
in business, or billing — you are 
always being given the excuse that 
things can't be done in a certain 
way 'because the computer won't 
let us.' Things gcjt done the wa) 
the computer wanted them done, 
not the way you wanted them 
done. I think Brown wants to get 
in and control the process so that 
we use the computers to do what 
we want them to do, not have 
someone else from the outside 
world develop a system that we 
would then have to adapt to our 
own needs." 

Another reason to face the 
ccjmputer issue now is that the 
demand for computing on campus 
is growing at a phenomenal rate. 
"Last year the grcjwth rate for re- 



search and administration needs 
was 80 percent," Shipp says. And 
students were camping out in the 
computer science department for 
days hoping to sign up for CS 
1 1 — intioductory programming. 
"If we think about hcjw we can 
meet the grcjwing demands while 
coping with the dis.satisfaction with 
the style of computing we have 
now, we know we have a dilemma. 
Then if we know there is some- 
thing that has greater promise 
coming down the road, it makes 
sense to seize the opportunity." 

"It's a wave," says van Dam. 
"You either ride it or it washes 
over you and you drown. We've 
done some things that make us 
think that we can make a majc:)r 
qualitative improvement in the life 
of students, scholars, and teachers. 

Librarian Merrily Taylor: 
'If we don't plan for 
the new technology, it 
will happen anyway and 
in a haphazard way' 

That's what we really want to do. 
What are the negative things going 
to be? What are the side effects? 
It's like having a new drug. You 
know there are going to be some 
things that aren't going to be right, 
but you want to find out about 
them. There's no point in saying, 
'Well, gee, this is going to be scary 
and that could be terrible.' We 
want to know what the problems 
are." 

Another element in the 'Why 
now?" question is the Edsel prob- 
lem. Since computer technology is 
advancing at such a rapid pace, 
how can we be assured that the 
machines we invest in toda\' aren't 
obsolete tomorrow or next week? 
"It's a serious problem," admits 
van Dam. "But nothing you can do 
will stop technology. It just keeps 
pushing. So let's figure out the 
best possible thing we can do 
— especially in helping students so 
they're not chained to something 
they buy in their freshmen year 
that everybody snickers at bv the 
time they're senicjrs. Maybe when 
you buv something from the man- 
ufacturer in the future what \'ou

will do is buy an insurance policy 
that guarantees, in the event the 
machine becomes completely obso- 
lete, you'll get 30 percent of the 
purchase price back. There will be 
lots of unanswerable questions, but 
at least if we start asking them, 
maybe we can come up with tech- 
nological solutions." 



T 



he question that has 
fascinated van Dam since the 
mid-19B()s is "What do scholars 
do? What d(j they want computers 
for beyond word-processing func- 
tions? I don't want to denigrate 
word processing, but we've been 
doing that for fifteen years and it's 
not what workstations are going to 
be used for. They are going to be 
used for storing data, for making 
connections, for allowing people to 
make the connections — those asso- 
ciations that human beings do so 
well, where one thing will trigger 
something else that will make you 
think of yet something else. That's 
what excites me the most, the intel- 
lectual stepladders. We will now 
have what the propaganda has 
been promising: computers as in- 
tellectual helpmates." 

The computer will lessen wiiat 



van Dam calls the "dog work" of 
research: the physical hunting 
through libraries for books, the 
re-typing of bibliographies, rewrit- 
ing drafts. And for specialized 
helds — mathematics, engineering, 
classical languages, Egvptologv 
— where svmbols other than the 
standard alphabet are used, ad- 
vanced graphics can provide on- 
line source materials. If the basic 
drudge work is alleviated, the pos- 
sibility for increased prociucti\itv 
emerges — for better or worse. 

"There is a danger in scIkjUu- 
ship of people producing too 
much," says Roger Henkle, chair- 
man of the English department. 
"There is already too much pro- 
duced in my field [the nineteenth- 
century novel], but it's true all 
through the profession that there 
are people who haven't carefully 
edited or thought through what 
they want to say. With the ability 
to store and manipulate a lot of 
material, the computer can pro- 
duce scholarship that is basically a 
collection of data. Because you can 
absorb and manipulate material 
more readily, in some cases there 
is a temptation to produce." 

Henkle, who does intend to 
use the computer, says he has re- 
sisted it thus far because he didn't 
want to take the time to learn it 



and didn't feel it would save that 
much time with his research. He 
has also resisted for 
"semi-philosophical" reasons, and 
voices a concern heard frequently 
among humanities scholars. 
"People in my profession revere 
the book, and the computer 
signifies a kind of alienation from 
the book. The book itself is an 
object of crucial importance. The 
way you handle it, the way you 
deal with a book is different from 
how you deal with computer ma- 
terial. . .that sense of reading 
backwards and forwards, browsing 
through it. One of the things that 
we have to talk aboiu when we 
consider the great advantages of 
the computer for research is that 
one of the ways people end up 
discovering things is by browsing 
through the stacks, and that won't 
be possible, no matter how many 
books are catalogued on the com- 
puter. The sense of the book as an 
artifact that carries a great deal of 
prestige and the tradition behind 
the book are something the com- 
puter won't propagate." 

Merrily Taylor, who like Hen- 
kle served as a consultant on the 
original proposal, says "we want to 
make sure we keep the virtues of 
the older systems while approach- 
ing and moving into the new „.

"It the unixersit) has a basic 
commodity that it both trades in 
and lives off, it's information," she 
continues. "You can't conceive of a 
place like Brown without its li- 
brary. If the library was gone, 
would you still have a university? 
We're a fundamental resource." 
It's a resoinxe that, with computer- 
ization, mav no longer be free, 
which raises provocative questions. 
"If people are going to continue to 
do lesearch and pass it on to stu- 
dents, they ha\e to have access to 
the information and they have to 
have it in a way that is more or 
less democratic. You can't say to 
certain segments of the University, 

Professor of Computer 
Science Andries van Dam: 
'The scholar's workstation 
is a teaching tool of 
unrivalled dimensions' 

'You have access, but you don't.' 

"Let me give you an example. 
It used to be that a library would 
buy something like Chemical Ab- 
stracts and pay S2,500 a year for 
the subscription and it would be 
available in the reference room. If 
you wanted to use it, you would 
walk in and use it — even if you 
used it ten times a day there was 
no cost to you. Now if you want to 
use Chem Abstracts on-line, there 
is a connect dialing charge, a citation 
charge, a charge for printing out 
your citations. Someone has to pay 
for that. Right now, the library is. 
but as more reference materials 
are put on-line and become availa- 
ble in that form, we will have to 
32 look at the whole philosophical 



issue. .A lot ot tins inloi nialioii is 
now being pro\ided by the profit 
sector — thev are doing it tor 
money, it's not in the iiaud ol 
higher education or tiie non-prolii 
sector. What does that really me.m 
when we start looking at an intoi- 
mation society where there will be 
haves and have-nots depending on 
whether vou can pay for the in- 
formation you need?" 

Taylor adds that one of the 
exciting aspects of the computer 
experiment is the prospect that 
Brown and other universities 
might be able to cooperate on ac- 
quiring data bases of their own 
and mount them on university 
computers. "This would make the 
in formation accessible to people in 
the university community without 
anv of the charges." 

"We in the humanities are, and 
will continue to be, \ery library-re- 
liant," says art professor Kermit 
Champa. "The technical disciplines 
work for the most part with cm- 
rent periodical literatme, which 
goes on-line very easily. But those 
of us who work with out-of-print 
antiquarian documentary materials 
are wc^rking with materials that 
will probably never be able to be 
transferred because of the man- 
hours necessary to do so." 

Another practical concern re- 
lating to time is voiced by Marc 
Parmentier, associate professor of 
geological sciences. "How are fac- 
ulty members going to be able to 
take the time to develop the pro- 
grams they will be using in their 
classes? If we are supposed to do 
that in the simimer, when will we 
have time to do our research? 
There may be a degradation in the 
quality of teaching in the short 
term, and research in the long 
term." 



T 



he scholar's worksta- 
tion is, in van Dam's words, "a 
teaching tool of unrivalled dimen- 
sions. It's like having the best of 
television, transparency projectors, 
and chalkboards; but it's much 
more malleable than any of those, 



and the student can control it." 
Not only will the workstation he 
flexible, it will be amazingly pow- 
erful: "Each of the new Apollos in 
the Could Lab is more powerful 
than the central time-sharing com- 
puter that we had in the comput- 
ing lab for the entire University in 
the mid-60s." 

Admittedly a zealot, van Dam 
believes the possibilities of using 
the computer as an enhancement 
for traditional means of teaching 
are endlessly exciting. He points to 
the poetry project sponsored by 
the National Endowment for the 
Humanities that he "spawned at 
Brown in 1975." This experiment 
made use of "hypertext," networks 
of cross-referenced, linked manu- 
scripts with their associated margi- 
nal notes, key-worded passages, 
exchanges with other students, and 
other references. A student could 
look at the screen and see the orig- 
inal poem as well as comments 
made by the professor and fellow 
classmates. "One of the things I 
was just charmed by in the NEH 
poetry experiment," says van Dam, 
"was that people were working 
much more together because of the 
electronic medium. They were 
writing to each other, marking up 
the text, then someone else would 
read the comments and write 
comments on the comments. 
There were whole dialogues going 
on; it was neat, really fun." In ad- 
dition to the increased inter-com- 
munication, students who were 
working on the computer wrote 
three times as much as did those 
in two control sections of the 
course, with no decrease in quality. 
"People admitted that they really 
got into it and it was miserably in- 
convenient. You had to sign up for 
your hours and hope that the 
machine was up. It's not like sit- 
ting at your workstation at two in 
the morning and when you get an 
inspiration, you can quickly bang 
something out." 

Henkle is "interested in using 
the computer in my journalistic 
writing class. Most of what we're 
doing involves rhetorical emphasis, 
moving things around, handling 
material, rearranging your exam-

pies; and it seems to me the com- 
puter will be particularly useful for 
that purpose." He thinks, though, 
that until every student is equip- 
ped with his own computer, there 
may be problems teaching writing 
on the computer. 

Mary Lewis, an associate pro- 
fessor of music, has been doing 
her research with the help of 
computers for years, and she says 
that "to say I am enthusiastic about 
this project is to put it mildlv. 
Hypertext is one of the most excit- 
ing concepts to come along. . .that 
and the increased communications 
capabilities of computers are really 
valuable. 

"One thing we'd like to see in 
my field is the development of a 
music editor, which could edit 
music the way you do text. It 
seems to me easy to integrate 
graphics and text. Once we can 
run music [through a computer] 
the way you do words, the next 
step would be the development of 
a music skills laboratory', where we 
could use the workstations to de- 
velop music skills — composition 
skills, harmony, music reading; all 
the fundamental skills of musical 
literacy that go beyond theory. 

"If a keyboard could be devel- 
oped like a piano keyboard, where 
you could plav and the ncjtes 
would be tvped right in, students 
could upgrade their skills, work in 
a self-paced way and make the 
work go much faster. It would also 
free up the faculty to teach more 
creatively." 

Lewis says that the computer 
will make music composition essen- 
tially a whole new field. "Just copy- 
ing out scores is expensive and 
time-consimiing. It could take so 
much of the drudgery out of it if 
you could do it on computer. I've 
seen programs where you can hit a 
button and the entire score can go 
up or down a fifth. As people use 
these machines and become aware 
of the potential, they will change 
oiu" work habits. The ease and 
speed of learning on these work- 
stations is amazing." 

Dean of the College Harriet 
Sheridan thinks the computer will 
"allow much more diversity and 



flexibility in teaching techniques. It 
will provide a changed environ- 
ment that will heighten our (jwn 
consciousness about what we do. 
The trouble with educational pro- 
grams is that faculty get a Ph.D. 
and start teaching and continue to 
teach more or less in the same way 
if they were successful to begin 
with. Vet students and their needs 
change and we don't. I think the 
computer will contribute to that 
change. I think the greatest dan- 
ger the hinnan mind suffers is a 
boredom of getting so routinized, 
so used to doing the same thing 
that you stop really thinking about 
what you are doing. Change is an 
important factor in keeping an 
intellectual alive." 

As the University becomes 
more "wired," the uses for cable 
and video will grow accordingly. 
Once everyone is hooked up to the 
network, students will be able to 
use their workstations to review 
lectmes and labs. "There are lots 
of uses for cables in universities," 
explains Sally Kingsbury, coordina- 
tor of Brown's media services. "At 
MIT, for example, if a professor 
gives a pre-exam workshop it can 
be televised live and students can 
call up from all over campus and 
ask questions. Taping sciences labs 
is also useful, because it allows you 
to see processes — for example, 
surgical procedures — more clearly. 
Video is an educational tool that 
can slow down or speed up pro- 
cesses. It's another way of looking 
at yourself. You can use it in lin- 
guistics or in sports. In the future 
we will be able to call up visual 
information and give students 
more varied kinds of illustrations 
to show them more clearly what 
they are trying to learn. 

"There's also the possibility of 
being able to take classes at other 
schools via satellite. Or, if you 
were taking an archeology class, 
someone could be at the actual 
dig. Video extends the boundaries 
of education. Thinking in a visual 
way will become more of a neces- 
sity. Media-related professions are 
expanding geometrically, so it's 
good for students to become famil- 
iar with the medium." 



s 



ome classes at Brown are 
already being taped and put in the 
archives at media services for stu- 
dents to come and review. Will this 
mean that students will attend 
their classes less frequently, if they 
know they can catch up later by 
using a tape? Will social and scho- 
lastic interaction be lessened if a 
student can sit in a dorm room 
and do most of the required 
coursework without leaving the 
dorm? "I don't see the computer 
as replacing the human compo- 
nent that a classroom associaticjn 
involves," says Sheridan. "It rein- 
forces and complements the class-

room setting. I think we have to 
guard against the rapture of the 
machine, in which the human be- 
ing seems much less efficient and 
cogent than the carefully con- 
structed program. Something very 
important in the lack of cogency 
and efficiency in the human deliv- 
ery can be lost. That whole sense 
that students should be picking up 
of the way in which the mind 
works — both its fallibility and its 
triumph — may no longer be ap- 
parent. I think students slowly and 
imperceptibly build up their no- 
tion of what people are like and 
what faculty they admire are like 
from that kind of association — as 
much from the stammering and 
the groping as from anything 
that's carefully organized. That 
hiunan de\elopment, that percep- 
tion of what human nature is like, 
is a factor. We don't know how 
steady use of the computer is go- 
ing to affect that kind of under- 
standing." 

"It's conceivable that the com- 
puter could create a kind of at- 
mosphere where the seminar 
workshop situation is diminished," 
offers Henkle. "One of the most ^^

"people who ha\e trouble interact-

abusing] the computer. It will in- 
crease communication rather than 
decrease it. 1 didn't hnd that we 
saw less of each other when I was 
at MIT. There is the horrible vi- 
sion of students locked in with 
their studies, but even the worst

Science John Savage:

the University' 

ctjmputer jocks would group to- 
gether. The introverted, non-social 
computer nerd is almost an excep- 
tion. I think pecjple will still want 
to talk to each other — in many 
ways, carrels in the library are 
somewhat inore isolated. You can't 
reach people when they are sitting 
at those carrels. If vou're working 
on a computer, vou're immediately 
in touch." 

Sheridan suggests that "unless 
we guard against it, the computer 
will breed isolation, although vou 
could say that students are already 
isolated. The cruelest kind of 
competition, which they now seem 
to be living, has caused them to 
iscjlate themselves from each other. 
[It prevents them] from helping 
each other and talking about 
things that are going on. I think 
we're going to have to work 
harder to develop a sense of com- 
munal access and responsibility." 

Van Dam says, "I don't want 
classes to disappear, I want them 
to continue. I just want another 
mode. I don't want to be forced to 
choose. I know perfectly well that 
the classroom can be an artificial 
^2 setting. For a small percentage of 



pe()|jle who are articulate, like to 
show off, or are geiuiinely imat- 
raid and enjoy the dialogue, it's a 
gtjod setting. So what do we do? 
We try to break it down into dis- 
cussion groups, smaller sections 
— but these devices are just de- 
vices. I'm suggesting that we add 
another kind of section, the elec- 
tronic section, where a person can 
work to o\ercome the shvness or 
the fear ot communicating. I'm for 
creating additional avenues, not 
eliminating them. I now have in- 
fmitelv more student contact than 
before. I am pretty difficult to get 
hold of, but if you send me an 
electronic message, I will receive it 
when I log on. When I finally 
answer my mail, it could be two in 
the morning, but I answer my 
mail." (As if to demonstrate van 
Dam's point, his computer termi- 
nal beeped several times in the 
course ot a couple oi hours — stu- 
dents and colleagues sending him 
electronic messages.) 

Mary Lewis agrees. "I've had 
students say, 'I tried to reach you 
for so long,' when they needed 
help. If that student could reach 
me through electronic mail, we 
wouldn't miss each other. The 
computer reduces the physical 
gaps this way." 



T 



he announcement that 
$50 million was going to be spent 
over the next six years to equip 
everyone on campus with worksta- 
tions was greeted with surprise 
and concern. The administration 
firmly stressed that this money will 
be raised from sources other than 
current operating expenses, and 
that fund-raising for all other 
needs will continue. 

("There are times when money 
is available for some things and 
not for others," explains Shipp. 
"There isn't any real answer to 
that. As a University we have to 
take advantage of the opportuni- 
ties. " Shipp points to the rapidity 
of fund-raising for the experiment 
so far: "We've never had a period 
where in January a group of peo- 



ple started a fund-raising activity 
and three to toiu months later 
there was $15 million in the cof- 
fers.") 

Among those expressing con- 
cern is John Savage, a professor of 
computer science, wlio asks, "H(jw 
do you balance the risk against the 
opportunity?" A computer scientist 
who believes the computer is not a 
panacea. Savage already has access 
to tools that are more powerful 
than what will be generally availa- 
ble to the Brown community. "I 
know what to expect. I'm also 
aware of work being done in other 
universities, and I think I have a 
fairly honest assessment of the 
potential out there. 

'Tet me say that this project 
has the potential to transform the 
University, hopefully in ways ac- 
ceptable to all. But it comes at a 
time when we are pulling out of 
what most people consider a 
financial crisis. We are only margi- 
nally solvent. We have one build- 
ing that hasn't been paid for [the 
geo-chem building], we haven't 
brought faculty salaries to a level 
people would find generous, and 
our library needs a vast infusion of 
capital. We ha\e had faculty plead- 
ing for years to increase the 
[library] acquisition budget. 1 know 
there are facidty on campus 
housed under inferior conditions. 
Other faculty members will point 
to the woefully inadequate class- 
room situation that needs to be 
dealt with; students will ask why 
the financial-aid budget is still lack- 
ing. The president is taking a hard 
position about not putting up in- 
ternal money for this project," 
Savage continues. "He can't hold 
that line indefinitely, simply be- 
cause for campus computerization 
to work, it means computers must 
be in every office. You need a lot of 
central and distributed resources, 
and those have to be paid for by 
somebody. If a faculty member 
receives a workstation for research, 
there is no question that he or she 
will see its potential for teaching. 
There will then be a demand cre- 
ated for that. The Institute for 
Research in Information and 
Scholarship [see below] will bring 



in machines, but I don't believe 
they see it as their mission to fimd 
all the computerization that's going 
to take place on campus. Instead 
thev will expect departments and 
administrati\e offices to raise their 
own funds. .At that point you can't 
hold the line anymore. Vou have 
to pay for these resources out of 
existing fimds." 

What Savage has articulated is 
what van Dam calls the "camel's 
nose problem. It's an ancient Arab 
proverb. Once the camel gets his 
nose into the tent, the rest of the 
camel will follow soon. I know 
what we can't say is, 'Let's put 
10,000 workstations all over Brown 
and by eliminating financial aid, 
the librarv, salarv raises, let's kill 
off the University.' We ma\ ha\e 
won the battle, but we would have 
lost the war. We are keenlv aware 
that we have to do this primarily 
with monies we've raised. That's 
the key issue. But how can we 
raise those monies? Not by being 
number five. You have to be num- 
ber one, you have to be a picjneer. 
You have to make people willing 
to invest in you because they think 
you may conceivably lead to some 
questions and answers that matter. 
The money will come if we do 
good work. Not all of it, there will 
be some hardships, there will be 
some reallocations. But it's not 
something someone is going to 
decide in lonely splenchjr. It will 
be argued fiercely up and down 
the corridors of power, with all the 
input and insights of whate\er 
committee is looking at it." 

One of the things that makes 
the Brown experiment different 
from other projects is the Institute 
for Research in Information and 
Scholarship (IRIS), established 
with support from IBM (see side- 
bar). "The Institute is really the 
cornerstone of Brown's entire pro- 
ject," President Howard Swearer 
said when he announced the estab- 
lishment of the institute. "From 
IRIS will stem the technical and 
creative impulses that will drive 
and focus a broad range of exper- 
iments. Information developed by 
IRIS will show us how the next

Support from Industry 



Three companies — Apple, Apollo, 
and IBM — have provided the ini- 
tial support to begin Brown's am- 
bitious campus-wide computer 
experiinent. 

Fifty of Apple Computer, 
Inc.'s Lisa computers, representing 
a $500,000 grant from the Apple 
Education Foundation, were deliv- 
ered to the campus in June. 
Brown and Apple ha\e also 
reached an agreement that will al- 
low the University community to 
purchase Lisas and other com- 
puter equipment, as well as any 
futme systems Apple may develop, 
at significant discounts from retail. 
This agreement commits the Llni- 
versity to purchase at least $2 mil- 
lion worth of Apple equipment 
within the next three years. There 
is no upper limit on the amount of 
equipment Brown could purchase 
during that period. 

"Apple carefully surveyed 
computer projects in higher educa- 
tion," said Steven Jobs, chairman 
of the board at Apple. "We felt 
that Brown, with its strong liberal 
arts tradition, had one of the most 
promising and broadly conceived 
approaches to the next generation 
of university computing." 

One of the attractive features 
of the Lisa is that, as Bill Shipp 
says, "In most cases, scholars can 
make productive use of their com-

puters after less than an ht^ur's 
training." 

The fifty Lisas from the Apple 
Education Foundation will be used 
in instructional networks, primarily 
for students and faculty in the 
humanities. 

Apollo Computer, Inc., of 
Chelmsford, Massachusetts, do- 
nated thirty computer workstations 
valued at approximately $600,000. 
The workstations, Apollo's model 
DN300, will nearly triple the ca- 
pacity of the University's Ciould 
Laboratory. 

The IBM Corporation is pro- 
viding major support to establish 
the University's Institute for Re- 
search in Information and Schol- 
arship (IRIS). The Institute will 
administer the computer experi- 
ment and is, according to Presi- 
dent Howard Swearer, "the cor- 
nerstone of Brown's entire 
project." 

The total value of IBM's sup- 
port, by the University's estimate, 
will be about $15 million over 
three years, making it the largest 
single corporate partnership in 
Brown's history. IBM's participa- 
tion includes both a grant and a 
joint-study venture. During the 
next three years, IBM will supply 
Brown with computer hardware, 
including as many as 700 powerful 
C(;mputer workstations, and will 
assign five full-time employees per 
year to work on IRIS prcjjects. 
Brown will also use support from 
foundations and other corpora- 
tions to develop a staff for IRIS 
and to support faculty experimen- 
tation. 

One of the major research 
tasks IRIS will address is to de- 
velop software that will allow a va- 
riety of workstations to share in- 
formation with each other, to 
access campus mainframe data- 
bases and services, and to commu- 
nicate with the workstations of dis- 
tant scholars through local, state, 
national, and international net- 
works.

Shipp has lieen .ippoinled ch- 
rectoi ot the IRIS, .uid lie explaiirs 
that "there will he an executive 
conunillee com|)osed of lacult\ 
and staiT who will fiuiction like a 
ccjrporate executi\e committee. 
This group will be intimately in- 
volved in recommending policies, 
in looking at tiie directions of the 
institute's activities." Another 
committee, made up of project 
leaders, will be the management 
coiTimittee; another will be respon- 
sible for implications and e\alua- 
tions, and will be looking at social 
and psychological impacts of the 

Bill Shipp: 'We are trying 
to distribute the most 
appropriate technology 
to the groups on campus 
that can best benefit' 

project as well as evaluating educa- 
tion, scholarship, and social 
changes. Yet another committee 
will be responsible for training and 
deployment. "The wliole training 
issue is crucial. In January 1984 
there may be hundreds of students 
with machines that they have 
bought. Within the next year there 
could be thousands of these ma- 
chines on campus, and it's going to 
be a major effort to pro\ide a 
whole new kind of training to fac- 
ulty, staff, and students. One of 
the biggest prcjblems we saw^ in 
talking to the departments is lack 
of training. We don't have any 
training facilities for faculty and 
staff. We're actually sending peo- 
ple to Johnson and W'ales Ojllege 
to take courses about computing, 
which is insane. " 

I he question of "who gets 
what, when" is, according to 
Shipp, a complicated one that 
won't be entirely up to IRIS to 
determine, "f here are certain con- 
siderations that have to be made 
primarily on a technical basis," he 
explains. "For instance, in 1984-85, 
the workstations have to be used 
.. primarilv to set up two workstation 



labs. Those will not be generally 
available terminal centers, but will 
be available to courses that use 
them. So theie's a decision that 
will be made hrst of all to meet the 
recjuirements of the experiment 
going on and the deNelopment 
process. We will be recjuesting ap- 
plications fcjr uses for the Lisas we 
have received. The initial hundred 
IBM Vi'.'s are more or less tar- 
geted at the biological or physical 
sciences, while the Lisas are more 
or less for the arts and social sci- 
ences. That has to do parth with 
the wishes of the manufacturer, 
and it's a general strategy. The 
whole name of the game is work- 
station networks. We want to estab- 
lish smaller workstation netwcjrks 
within the departments. There will 
have to be scjme group fcjrmed 
that will decide and evaluate the 
proposals for the machines. This is 
not just a computer science or en- 
gineering project. This is a L'ni- 
versity project. We are tr\ing to 
distribute the most appropriate 
technolog) to the groups on cam- 
pus that can best benefit. It will be 
a complicated process." 

The industry tie-in is scjme- 
thing that raises other intriguing 
questions. Joan Richards, an assis- 
tant professor of history who 
served on an ad hoc subcommittee 
of the Faculty Policy Ciroup set up 
t(j stud> the project over the sum- 
mer, says that one of the commit- 
tee's concerns is the copyright 
problems of the software that fac- 
ult\ members will be helping to 
develop: Whcj will get the money? 
Mary Lewis adds, "We in the aca- 
demic world have been li\ing in a 
state of innocence. We ha\en't 
dealt with the secrecy and the po- 
tential for profit that goes on in 
the business wcjrld. The possibili- 
ties for us to make money develop- 
ing the software is looming ahead 
and we have to start thinking 
about that. People in the himiani- 
ties aren't usecl to being in that 
position." 



w 



e have to pay at- 
tention as best we can to the iman- 
ticipated consequences," says Ed- 
ward Beiser, professor of political 
science and director of the Center 
for Law and Liberal Education. 
"What is an example of an unanti- 
cipated consecpience? Question: 
What are the iinplications of this 
program fcjr admission decisions at 
Brcjwn? If we have the potential tcj 
give every student at Brown a 
terminal, should we not when we 
admit a class try to attract and re- 
cruit students who have the capac- 
ity to use that tenninal? You don't 
invest in this kind of hardware and 
then remain indifferent as to 
whether and how it will be utilized. 
By way of analogy, if we accepted 
the donation of a new language 
laboratory, so that there was a seat 
in the lab for every student at 
Brown, that would make nc3 sense 
unless lots and lots of students 
were going to study foreign lan- 
guages." 

Will the project change the 
kind of student attracted to 
Brown? Two replies. Dean of the 
College Harriet Sheridan: "I think 
if we weren't to dcj it, it might. 
The liveliest, most enterprising 
students that we see at Brown 
struggling to get into CS 1 1 are 
coming from all fields. Why 
shcjuldn't humanists know about 
machines? The problem with 
humanists in the past has been 
that they haven't wanted to recog- 
nize their dependence on ma- 
chines. Yet they dri\e cars, use 
refrigerators and stereos. I would 
say were we not to do this, we 
would lose many of the students 
that we want." Music professor 
Mary Lewis: "I asked one of my 
students — one of those who is most 
wonderful — if he would have come 
to Brown with these computers. 
He said he wouldn't, but that stu- 
dents coming in now wouldn't be 
bothered in the least by this exper- 
iment. That's how fast things have 
changed. " 

"This institution is special," 




The way we were: In this 1956 photo. Professor of Applied Mathematics Walter 
Freiberger instructs six students in the workings of Brown's first computer. 



says Savage. "It has been for a 
long time a friendly, homey, easy- 
going place, but we have been 
experiencing a diminishing sense 
of community. I would want to 
know what's causing the change. 
What disturbs me is that there is 
no dialogue. We're introducing 
technology instead of giving atten- 
tion to the problems people have." 
"Are we as a University dis- 
cussing education enough so that 
we are ready to discuss this kind of 
education in conjunction with 
everything else?" Beiser inquires. 
"If every professor has a terminal 
in his office, and terminals are 
accessible to every student, we will 
then have a discussion of whether 
we should have a computer re- 
quirement at Brown. But we don't 
now have real discussions about 
whether we should have a writing 
requirement or what that might 



mean. Or a reading requirement 
and what that might mean. What 
is the educational framework 
within which we will discuss the 
place ot the computer at Brown? 
The computer issue forces us to 
interact on some educational is- 
sues." 

"Brown is attempting to hu- 
manize a technological trend," as 
Lewis puts it. "We have to find 
ways to use the things creativelv. 
We live in a technological societ\ 
and we can't run from it." 

According to Shipp, "Very lit- 
tle has actually happened yet. The 
perception is that 'the\' have gone 
so far that all of the decisions have 
been made. What we've been try- 
ing to do is create a set of oppor- 
tunities. What has complicated 
things is the success of the fimd- 
raising. If it had taken us ten vears 
to raise the initial money, people 



would have forgotten all about it." 
People have not forgotten. 
The computers are coming and 
the debate is here. .\nd Brown, 
ten years from now, will be a \astly 
different University. The wave 
that Andy \an Dam sa)s we are 
riding will wash us right into the 
twenty-first century.

ou are the director of 
the National Endowment for the 
Arts. Yon must decide whether to 
give the remainder of your allotted 
funds to Michelangelo so that he 
can paint the ceiling of the Sistine 
Chapel, or to a group of college 
students who want to pose topless 
around an automobile covered 
with strawberry jam and call it a 
'happening.' How do you distin- 
guish art from trash?" 

Edward Reiser, professor of 
political science and director of 
Brown's Program in Law and Soci- 
ety, poses this question to an un- 
usually attentive class — unusual, 
that is, for 9 a.m. on a sunny July 
day. The students, who will be sen- 
iors in high school this fall, are 
members o{ the Brown Simimer 
Academy, a six-week, acaciemic en- 
richment program, now in its sec- 
ond vear, running from June 26 
through August 5. 

"We try to put llifw into the 
driver's seat in terms of their own 
thinking," says Tom Jenkins '84, 
Beiser's teaching assistant, "to get 
ihem to think critically and under- 
stand the problems in\olved in 
maintaining any absolute position. 
We want them to question their 
gut responses, to be conscious of 
liou' they think as well as of what 
they think." Jenkins, a history 
major whose thesis will center on 
turn-of-the-century legal realism, 
characterizes the program as "less 
strictly an academic experience 
and more of a huinan one," both 
from the students' a)id the teach- 
ers' perspective: "It's an education 
for me, too. By getting to know 
the students and trying to make 
the material relevant, I'm also 
learning from them." 

Keith Rinzler, who attends the 
Westminster School in Atlanta, 
calls Beiser "e\erything I hoped I 
would have in a law professor. 
He's kind of like Kingsfield in Thf 
Paper Chase, but he has a sense of 
humor and he makes us think." 

"Why shouldn't women in 
bathing suits be painted over 



Michelangelo's Sistine ceiling?" 
Beiser continues. "Why shoukln't 
McDonald's put up its golden 
arches at the edge of the Cirand 
Canyon?" 

"Because it isn't right," a stu- 
dent volunteers. 

"According to whom?" 

The student looks puzzled. 
Beiser probes further. 

"Why do we drink red wine 
with meat and white wine with 
fish?" Pause. "Is there an\ such 
thing as xvhat is right? If there 
isn't, how do we li\e? If there is, 
how do we decide?" 

"As with Brown freshmen, it's 
important to get the students to 
think for themselves, to trust their 
judgment rather than what it says 
here in the text. We need to break 
dc5wn the idea that there is one 
right answer," says Barrett Hazel- 
tine, professor of engineering and 
associate dean of the College, 
whose s u m m e r course on 
"Decision Making in Business" 
encoiuages just this kind of inde- 
pendent thinking. Civen a case 
study of Sea Pines Racquet Club in 
Hilton Head, South Carolina, his 
students are asked to put them- 
sehes in the place of its newl\-ap- 
pointed tennis director and to 
make decisions regarding the de- 
\elopment and reorganization of 
its tennis facilities. A hand goes up 
slowly. 

"Can I ask a realh dimib ques- 
tion?" 

"There are no dumb ques- 
tions, " replies Hazeltine. "There 
are diuiib answers, biu not diunb 
questions."

one of the program's six resident 
coimselors, these ninet\-four stu-

all o\er the coimtrv (both public

suades his class, will also promote 
"a general sharpening of the 

7 used to think of 
professors as gods who 
never talk to students 
except to teach. Now I 
know how human they are' 

intellect." 

English professor George Lan- 
dow's course, "The Fantastic in 
Literature and Art," fosters a simi- 
lar kind of healthy skepticism. 
Conducting a section on "Dr. 
Heidegger's Experiment," a short 
story by Nathaniel Hawthorne, 
teaching assistant David Cody '81 
A.M. suggests that the story's nar- 
rator is a sham in the same way 
that the elixir of life on which it 
centers is a sham, and labels the 
story an "anti-fantasy" or "sub- 
versive fantasv. " Issues such as this 
are new to students who have 
never thought to question some- 
thing as seemingly fundamental as 
the reliability of the narrator. One 
student protests, "How do you 
know that?" Cody praises the stu- 
dent's audacity. He points out that 
Hawthorne has attempted to dupe 
his readers in the same way that 
Dr. Heidegger dupes his col- 
leagues. He urges the class to con- 
tinue to exercise "the right to dif- 
fer," to "keep this attitude when 
reading criticism." 

Landow, too, cautions against 

"losing yourselves in what you 

read," for "all literature and all life 

.„ is based on a set of conventions 



which are, in a sense, fantasy." 
Landow, who describes teaching in 
the .Suimner Academy as "very 
refreshing," notes that although 
the students are "wide-eyed and 
bushy-tailed" and aie in many re- 
spects "better than freshman 
classes," they seem ne\ertheless to 
have the normal adjustment prob- 
lems: "They aren't ready for the 
amount of work and they dcjii't 
know how to apportion their time. 
They have the ability, but no one 
has ever told them how they can 
improve their writing or increase 
their reading speed. They're used 
to being the best in their classes. 
Here, they learn that it's not such 
a bad thing not to be the best." 

Says Kathy Schaal, who attends 
Upper Arlington High School in 
Columbus, Ohio, "I do well in 
high school. I wanted to see how I 
would fit in at an Ivy League 
school. I've foimd that I'm about 
average or a little above. That was 
hard to accept at first. But ncnv I 
like it. It's stimulating and chal- 
lenging to be with people like 
this." 

"They find out that college 
won't be like high school where 
they're looked down upon because 
they're smart," adds resident coun- 
selor Kathy Harsch '83 M.A.T. All 
of these students, admitted to the 
program on the basis of grades, 
PSAT or SAT scores, and teacher 
recommendations (as well as the 
completicjn of a written applica- 
tion, which includes a personal 
essay), are "smart." According to 
the prcjgram's brochure, thev are 
expected to have demonstrated 
"superior academic ability" along 
with "high motivation, emotional 
stability, and social maturity." 

Most of the students investi- 
gated other summer programs (in- 
cluding those offered by colleges 
such as Harvard, Yale, and Cor- 
nell, and by private secondar\ 
schools such as Andover and 
Choate) before deciding to come 
to Brown. Celestine Richards, who 
attends Magnificat High School in 
Rockv Ri\er, Ohio, points to 
Brown's course selection as the 
most iinportant factor in her deci- 



sion. "They're ncjt standard 
school-year courses," she observes. 
"I hey present a different view." 
Claroline laub, from Biooklyn 
Technical High .School in New 
York Caty, echoes Richards's com- 
ments and adds that places such as 
Harvard and Yale "don't seem to 
offer extracurricular activities." 
Brian Simmons, of Kent School in 
Kent, C^c:)nnecticut, chose Brown's 
program over similar programs at 
Clhoate and at Union College. 
Why? "Because it's Brown. I 
wanted to be in an Ivy League 
environment." 



I 



ntended to be a simulated 
college experience, the Brown 
Summer Academy, coordinated by 
Reginald Archambault, chairman 
of the education department, af- 
fords high school students the 
opportunity to attempt college- 
level work in a college setting. 
Archambault, who has been pro- 
moting this idea for twelve years, 
is the first to acknowledge that 
Brown is ccjmparatively late in 
developing an advanced summer 
study program. But in 1982, Ar- 
chambault's efforts came to frui- 
tion with Brown's first Simimer 
Academy. 

Summer Academy students 
live in Brown dormitories, eat at 
the Refectory, and study at the 
Rockefeller Library. Each chooses 
two out of eight courses (all of 
which are taught by Brown fac- 
ulty) from a wide range of disci- 
plines. Like Brown students, they 
have the option of taking these 
courses for a grade or on a satis- 
factory/no credit basis. Classes are 
generally small, making possible a 
lively exchange of ideas. Says Eng- 
lish professor John Shroeder, 
whose ""Reading and Interpreting 
Shakespeare: A Study of Six Plays" 
has a total enrollment of eleven, 
"It's a piece of cake compared to 
lecture courses cjf 300. There's a 
good deal of intimacy with stu- 
dents." 

Shroeder's course, which con- 
centrates on theatrical production 



as interpretation, encourages both 
an understanding of the motives 
behind previous stagings of Shake- 
speare's \vori<. (such as Peter 
Brooks's famous 1970 A Midsum- 
mer Night's Dream) and the stu- 
dents' informed creation of their 
own stagings. "They're sharjj 
young people," observes Shroeder. 
and then smiles: "I can't imagine 
why they want to come to school in 
the summer." 

Professor of Biology Walter 
Quevedo, who teaches "The Biol- 
ogy of Becoming and Being Hu- 
man," seconds Shroeder's con- 
fidence in the students' intellectual 
prowess: "They're highly compe- 
tent, qualified students." Neverthe- 
less, for Quevedo, teaching in the 
Brown Summer Academy poses a 
challenge: "It's tough to teach five 
days a week. It's like a person an- 
ticipating being guillotined; it fo- 
cuses your mind." Quevedo, who 
insists that this is a positive 
influence on his teaching, praises 
the program's detachment "from 
other things that crowd in during 
the academic year." 

"In many ways, it's more fun 
to teach in this program than it is 
to teach at Brown," says Beiser, 
who also taught in the summer 
program last year. "We have the 
luxury of small classes and a very 
special kind of student/faculty in- 
teraction." Admittedly in a privi- 
leged position. Summer Academy 
students study with superstar fac- 
ulty during a season when they 
have time, the kind of concentrated 
time that is rare during the school 
year. "I gave up writing a book to 
do this," says Landow without a 
trace of bitterness. "I try to eat 
lunch with the students twice a 
week. Sometimes I hold office 
hours under the tree outside their 
dorms." 

Celestine Richards, who "used 
to think of professors as gods who 
never talk to students except to 
teach," says she is especially im- 
pressed with "how human they 
are." And Keith Rinzler refers to 
Dean Hazeltine, with whom he in- 
sists he'll keep in touch, as "one of 
the best friends I've made since 
I've been here. I can't imagine 





how an associate dean with so 
much on his mind can care so 
much about his students." 



E 



dward Beiser accosts a 
student in the hallway. "You're 
late!" he bellows. 

"So are you," the student re- 
plies. 

"But I have the right to be 
late," contends Beiser. 

"Not according to Holmes's 
law of property," asserts the stu- 
dent triumphantly. Beiser smiles. 
This kind of comeuppance a 
teacher doesn't mind. In fact, it is 
exactly this ability to connect that 
the program ultimately strives for. 
The main purpose of the Brown 
Summer Academy, according to its 
brochure, is to "develop knowl- 
edge that will be generalizable to a 
wide variety of specific studies." 
Instead of facts and description, it 
emphasizes "ways of thinking, 
methods of investigation, and 
principles of procedure that un- 
derlie the study of subjects." 

History professor Donald 
Rohr, who teaches a course on 
World War II entitled "The Or- 
deal of Total War," examines with 
his class the United States's "tragic 
decision" to drop the atomic bomb 
on Japan in 1945. Rohr asks a stu- 
dent who is also enrolled in 
Shroeder's Shakespeare course to 
explain the concept of tragedy. 

"1 here's a fatal flaw," the stu- 
dent ventures. "It didn't have to 
happen." 

Rohr, who taught a similar 
course on World War I last sum- 
mer entitled "Europe Enters the 
Twentieth Century," describes 



what he teaches as essentially a 
course on human nature, a course 
that explores what it means to be 
heroic. In this sense, it is linked 
almost inseparably to the pro- 
gram's other offerings — from biol- 
ogy to law, from business to litera- 
ture. Rohr says emphatically that 
his course is "not a sandbox recon- 
struction of battles. It is not mili- 
tary strategy. It's the effect of war 
on society, on international rela- 
tions in general. These students 
hear about Japanese internment 
camps and the horrors of the Nazi 
holocaust, but that's all they know. 
They need to put it all into some 
sort of perspecti\e. " 

Rohr enables them to achieve 
this perspective by assigning an

have to know this?' 

independent research pioject to be 
worked on over the six-week pe- 
riod. "It's an effort to give high 
school students experience with se- 
lecting a topic and working on it 
on their own timetable, their own 
initiative," says Rohr. "It's not sim- 
ply an overnight assignment. It's 
something they have to live with 
for weeks." 

Simimer Academy classes meet 
Monday through Friday from 8:45 
to 12:15. Afternoons, for the most 
part, are free, although resident 
counselors coordinate a number of 
optional activities ranging from a 
drama club to the publishing of a 
weekly newsletter to a variety of 
sports tournaments. Every now 
and then a professor gives an in- 
formal talk in Diman Lounge 
(Shroeder on the history of coedu- 
cation at Brown; Hazeltine on 
technology and change in the 
Third World) or offers a film 
(Professor Rohr screened Hitch- 
cock's Foreign Correspondent and 
Welles's The Third Man in order to ; 

highlight the phenomenon of "the : 

naive American caught in the toils 
of European intrigue"). Weekend j 

trips abound (a Fourth of July ce- ^ 

lebration with fireworks at Rocky ^g

Point ainusfmeiu park, a clay of 
sunning and sigluseeiiig in New- 
port, slioppiiii; at Boston's Quini\ 
Market and Faneuil Hall, a Red 
Sox game, and a sampling ot near- 
h\ nuiseinns). On top of this, all 
through the week, paities just 
seem to "happen. " 

"They're quite self-sufficient 
for seventeen-year-olds," says head 
comiselor Kate Anhamhault 79, 
Professor .Aichanihault's daughter, 
who has an M.A. I. from Reed 
College. "TheNre not dependent 
on us to arrange their social lives 
for them." Student Brian Simmons 
concurs: 'We're a fun group of 
people. We know when we're 
working too hard." Most would 
like the dorms to be coed and the 
midnight weekend curfew to be 
extended ("We can't see a double 
feature at the Avon," gripes Keith 
Rinzler), but other than that, they 
seem a contented lot. 

Karen Sibley '81 M.A.T., as- 
sociate director of the Academy, 
says that although the program 
currently is operating at a "slight 
dehcit," it is nevertheless "going to 
go on. It's a young program," says 
Siblev. "This is to be expected in 
the first couple of years." Unfor- 
tunately, until the program is self- 
sufficient, no financial aid can be 
offered. And at $1,800 per student 
(not to mention a $20 application 
fee and the cost of books and 
course materials), that severely 
narrows the make-up of the stu- 
dent body. Although this year's 
students point out their geo- 
graphic and religious diversity, 
they seem quite aware of their 
economic status. "It's very disap- 
pointing to me," says Dina Berlyn 
from Hamden High School in 
New Ha\en, "that there are virtu- 
ally no minorities." 

Celestine Richards, who char- 
acterizes the student body as "am- 
bitious," calls attention ne\erthe- 
less to their "real compatibility." 
"It's like family," says Heindrick 
Verwaav, who has already invited 
his Summer Academy cohorts to 
his home in Haiti for a New V'ear's 
Eve reunion. Resident counselor 
Erin McVadon '83 M.A.T. notes 
that the students are "especially 



cooperative in helping each othei 
with their work. They read each 
oihei's papers, and before tests 
lhe\ hold their own study ses- 
sions." "During the year we fight 
for grades," explains Arthur Le- 
bowitz, who attends the Taft 
School in Woodbridge, Comiecti- 
cut, "but this is the sunmier." Says 
Lebowitz, who opted for satisfacto- 
ry/no credit grading, "We're here 
to learn, not necessarily to get 
A's."" 



F 



or these students, many 
ot whom are away from home for 
the first time, "learning" extends 
beyond academics. Craig Geller, 
who says the dorms "get messy 
quickly," had to get used to doing 
his own cleaning. And Caroline 
Taub, who has her own room at 
home, had to adjust to living with 
a roommate. "There's the pressure 
of being around their peers twen- 
ty-four hours a dav," adds Erin 
McVadon, "the pressure of con- 
stantlv being on show." 

Institutional food is also some- 
thing new. "There's a lot of broc- 
coli," complains Craig Geller. Gel- 
ler, who attends Jericho High 
School on Long Island, cites tur- 
key and zucchini as two other fre- 
quent (offenders: "We've counted 
the number of times and ways 
we've seen them." But most stu- 
dents, like Verwaay, have "no 
complaints. I've even gained a few 
pounds," he says sheepishly. "My 
mom is a very good cook," Kathy 
Schaal admits with a smile, "but 
I'm not starving myself." Summer 
Academy students don't seem to 
have lost any time in discovering 
Providence's numerous ice cream 
stores. And late-night pizza deliv- 
eries occur with regularity. "They 
order about twenty-five pizzas a 
night," one counselor insists. 
"They have the phone number 
memorized." 

'"Right now, I'm going through 
the adjustment period I would 
have had next year, " says Celestine 
Richards calmly. Heindrick Ver- 
waay, who boasts of "getting accus- 



tomed to sleeping less," concurs: "I 
feel so (omfortafjle walking in. I've 
gotten to know myself much bet- 
ter. The problems I was fearing 
before. . .1 won't face them at all. 
I'm looking forward to college 
much more after this program." 
Like Verwaay, Kathy Schaal no 
longer worries about "fitting in"': 
"Now I know I will." 

One of the ways the Summer 
Academy helps its students to feel 
this way is thn^ugh academic advis- 
ing and college counseling. Work- 
shops given by the Brown admis- 
sion office on college planning are 
among the program's most popu- 
lar events. "They're a very college- 
oriented group," observes Tim 
Wile. These workshops are com- 
plemented by excursions to visit 
nearby colleges (a trip to the Bos- 
ton area to see MIT, Harvard, and 
Tufts, and one to New Haven to 
see Yale). Most students seem to 
be interested in Ivy League col- 
leges and, as might be expected, 
particularly in Brown. "I really 
love it here," says Caroline Taub, 
who praises the professors, the 
campus, and "the good feeling of 
this place." For Craig Geller, 
Brown is "a dream. Are you in 
admissions?" he quips. Of last 
year's group, twenty-six applied to 
Brown, nine were accepted, and 
four have decided to matriculate. 

"Sometimes I think the pro- 
gram has hardlv begun, " says Car- 
oline Taub, "but then I think back 
on all the work and all I've accom- 
plished and I realize that some- 
thing did begin here." Although it 
has taken a long time for the pro- 
gram that Reginald Archambault 
conceived twelve years ago to get 
off the ground, it definitely has 
""begun." 

This year's students, like last 
year's, have placed their flag 
(made from a broom handle and 
an empty pizza box, and decorated 
with the initials B.S.A.) in Caesar 
Augustus's hand on Hughes Court 
in Wriston Quad. They have estab- 
lished their Empire. 

Jennifer Krauss will be in the Ph.D. 
program in English at Cornell this 
fall. 



Unaccustomed 
as I was. . . 



By Alvin V. Sizer '36 



R 



recently, I was one of a 
long lineup of speakers at a testi- 
monial dinner paying tribute to a 
community leader. Afterwards he 
wrote me a letter: "Yours meant 
the most. It was extemporaneous." 

Well, not exactly. I had a few 
"memory hooks" on index cards in 
case I got off the track. But his 
remark took me back across the 
years, not for the first time, to one 
day early in the spring semester of 
1935 at Brown. I attended what 
may have been my most important 
single class in college. 

I was an honors student in 
English literature and doing very 
well. But I had a crushing work- 
load, especially in reading, and I 
was looking for relief. Public 
Speaking, as taught by Tom 
Crosby and Ben Brown, had the 
reputation of being, in our par- 
lance, a "pipe" or "snap" course. 
Athletes frequented it and there 
wouldn't be much in the way of 
reading assignments. Just the 
ticket for me! 

As an added incentive, I would 
emulate my older brother, Harold 
'29, who had won just about every 
elocution contest the college of- 
fered and was a champion debater 
and Commencement orator. 

My first efforts at emulation 
are best forgotten. To me a speech 
was something you crafted and 
polished and then imparted to 
others either by reading it from a 
text or from having memorized it. 
My tenure as a freshman debater 
was something less than successful. 
Before a full house at Boston 
Latin School, I completely froze 
when it came to off-the-cuff rebut- 
tal and my partner, Ted Tannen- 



wald, later a distinguished U.S. 
jurist, had to carry on the attack 
and defense without much help. 

Still emulating my brother, I 
entered the Carpenter Elocution 
contest, when I had no right to, 
with a carefully memorized speech 
on Charles Dickens. Halfway 
through I had stage fright and 
came to a halt. I stared at a sea of 
faces for what seemed an eternit\. 
Mercifully, a phrase from later on 
in my talk popped up in my mind 
and I took it from there and never 
mind the continuity. I didn't win. 

In Tom Crosby's class I me- 
morized meticulously and deliv- 
ered without much emotion or sin- 
cerity. I carefully repeated the 
standard pronimciation exercises: 
"I believe it is the duty [watch that 
word] of oiu" newspapers [that one 
too]" or Keats' great ode on the 
Grecian mn, "Thou still unrav- 
ished bride of quietness. . . 

Then came the fatal day. 

"Mr. Sizer, come up front! 
You are a member of your town's 
Kiwanis Club. You have a group 
of town leaders here, and you 
want to enlist their support in 
building a community swimming 
pool. Okay, you have the floor." 

I stumbled off the mark, 
groped, sputtered, and came to an 
embarrassing halt. But then I no- 
ticed something. 

From that class of between 
twenty-five and thirty men came 
not a sound, not a snicker. Not far 
from where I sat in the alphabetic 
arrangement was Tom Watson, in 
dirty white flannels and old saddle 
shoes, dress hardly presaging his 
future role as chairman of the 
board at IBM. He looked sympa- 
thetic. 

In fact, I saw I had complete, 
100-percent empathy from the 
class and suddenly it struck me! 




Each realized he might be standing 
in my place within minutes. 

I got underway again. The 
tension was gone. I gathered mo- 
mentum, I improvised, I gestured. 
I wound up with an emotional 
plea for the underprivileged youth 
of the community who would 
benefit from a swimming pool. 

Then I sat down in a glow. I 
heard nothing else that went on 
that day in class. I was too ab- 
sorbed in what had happened to 
me. 

Never again in my life would I 
ever be afraid to stand up on my 
two feet and talk to others. No 
more stage fright, no more mem- 
orizing, no more a slave to a text. 
What a gift! 

When final marks came out I 
had gone from a C to an A, and 
Crosby had carefully written 
within parentheses after the grade, 
"for improvement." 

Unaccustomed as I was to pub- 
lic speaking, it all changed for me 
during that magic moment forty- 
eight years ago when Tom Crosby 
took away all my props and made 
me make it on my own. 

Alvin Sizer '36, a former managing 
editor of the New Haven Register, is

Going, Going, Gone ... 

Last spring Duncaster told readers of our 
non-profit retirement community now 
being built on a wonderful 72-acre farm 
just west of Hartford. 
(It's interesting how many read ads in 
such small print. We are now receiving 
mail from across the world.) 
If you think New England is right for 
you; if you think it wouldn't be half bad 
to live independently, but with sound 
medical care and other services instantly 
available; if you think life with congenial 
company is better than life all by your- 
self, then you may want to know more 
about Duncaster. 

Our headline is correct: We are at the 
stage of subscription when we're going 
to be saying GONE within these next ten 
months, certainly by the time we open 
next spring. That's just what happens to 
places like Duncaster.

Rumfoid, R.I., on Friday, June 'i. 
Eight members of the class attended, 
with wives and guests making eighteen 
in all, which was Hlling for the class of 
1918. 

Class officers attending were /()/(/( 
,S'. Chafee (vice president), Zenm R. bliss

After sitting in the beautiful gai- 
den outdoors, enjoying a drink and 
conversation, the group had pictures 
taken. Then lunch was ready, and it 
was an excellent lunch. 

After lunch. Vice President 
Ohafee showed various exhibits of the 
class, Libers of each year, various pic- 
tures of the class, etc. 

Then he called upon Secretary 
Walter Adler. Walter gave some statis- 
tics, which proved very interesting. 
When the class entered its freshman 
year in September 1914, the first 
World War had begun, although the 
U.S. did not participate until April 



1917. The freshman class totalled 196, 
the largest entering freshman class at 
that time. 

The University consisted of; 1) 
Men's student body — four classes, 771; 
2) The Women's C'ollege of Brown 
University, 253; 3) graduate students, 
52; total, 1,07(5. 

Of the class of 1918, sixty-six re- 
ceived their degrees in 1918 (May). 
Some years later — after the war — some 
sixty-one received their degrees. 

Since the 60th reunion in 1978, 
thirty-four members of the class have 
passed away — foiu" in 1982 and foiu' in

The all-new 1984 Ford Tempo 

Style and technology in total harmony. 



Form follows function. 

In its creation of Tempo, 
Ford set out to design a car 
that would prove that a spa- 
cious interior, comfort and 
performance could be com- 
patible with fuel efficienc\: 
Ford engineers began with a 
sound design principle: 
Form follows function. First 
came completely new func- 
tional ideas. Anci then 
Tempo's pleasing form fol- 
lowed-naturalh: 



An acknowledged world 
leader in aerodynamic 
design. Ford used this exper- 
tise in creating Tempo. And it 
has a profound effect on the 
ON'erall performance of the 
car For example, aero- 
dynamics helps Tempo hug 
the road becau.se airflow is 
directed to reduce lift for 
improved stabilit\- and direc- 
tional control. 

Tempo is ec]uipped with 
the world's most ad\'anced
