History professor Karl Morrisoncalled her an “excellent scholar,” whilehistorian Leonard Krieger described her as“highly knowledgeable.” Most othermembers of the department echoed thosesentiments But. the consensus in thedepartment was that although Gray is avaluable addition to the department, herduties as president will probably not allowher to teach much, if at all Gray from 1panies doing business in South Africa, butcalled the issue awfully complex.”“We must specify a set of criteria thatwould establish a responsible policy,” saidthe 47-year-old Renaissance historian“No solution”Gray declined to comment on a number ofareas of University policy because she feltshe required more time to study them“I don't have a solution” to the reducedsupport for education, she said. On the issueof affirmative action to increase minorityand female enrollment, Gray said she has a“deep moral and educational commitment”to equal opportunity, and that the Univer¬sity also has "legal commitment.'’Gray added that quotas to increaseminority enrollment would be “inap¬propriate,” but promised the Universitywould “deal with the internalization of thatcommitment ” Although Gray said she isconcerned for the “quality of life in thiscommunity,” she was unsure that as awoman president she would attract morewomen to the UniversityPredicting a rise in the number of tenuredwomen in the next few years both at theUniversity and around the country, Grayadmitted that such a rise would be slowerfor other minorities“Few minorities are choosing academiccareers,” she said.“Obligation to media”In a break with the University’s presentadministration. Gray said she felt an“obligation to campus media” to “gettogether” often When asked if she were a“private” person. Gray said she was “semi¬private and semi-public” but that universitypresidents should be allowed to “follow theirown style.”Gray admitted that the University suffersfrom a poor image outside the academicworld, ana telt that image was undesen ed“People misunderstand Chicago.” shesaid “There ought to be a way to get peopleto think more naturally about the Univer¬ sity ” Gray added that “the bestadvertisement for Chicago lies in itsstudents,” and that the problem required“serious attention ”Gray, one of six women presidents ofsecular universities or colleges in the U S.,said there was “no single women’smovement,” but that the feministmovement had “allowed for and en¬couraged the individualism of women aspeopleI've had the good fortune of growing upin a family that encouraged its sons anddaughters to be serious #nd to haveprofessional ambitions.” she saidU.S. Steelgives $250,000By Elizabeth VilaThe United States Steel Foundation ofPittsburgh has given a quarter of a milliondollar gift to the University in support ofPhase II of the Campaign for Chicago Thefunds are unrestrictedThe Campaign, which has raised $180million of its $280 million goal, encouragesunrestricted gifts because the money can befunneled directly into the central budget tobe used for general purposesPresident John T.

Graduate and professional schoolsthen continue this preparation. Thecurriculum, high academic standards,intellectual environment and dedicatedfaculty at this University may help prepareus for our future better than most academicinstitutions But. what helps prepare us forthe University of Chicago And once wecome here, how do we cope with thedemands of our professors, of our peers,and, most of all, of ourselves-The answer to the first question is fairlyobvious Our families, schooling, friendsin a sense the education of our previousyears are our preparation The answer tothe second question is difficult at best Someadapt to this academic life better thanothers, but almost everyone, at some point,experiences difficulty coping with thevarious demands When problems appeartoo great or numerous to remedy alone orwith assistance of close friends, manystudents here seek professional help at theStudent Mental Health Clinic.Dr. John Kramer, director of the Clinic,estimates that by the time an entering classgraduates, one-fourth to one-third of theclass has visited the Clinic, most of themduring their first 18 months at the Univer¬sity Approximately 700 students use theClinic each year, half of whom are graduatestudents Up until seven or eight years ago,two-thirds of the students were un¬dergraduates The number of visits vary butthere is a sharp drop after six, and anotherafter 11. A disproportionate number of thesestudents are women, mainly because, as onestaff member said, “it seems easier forwomen to come in and talk ” But in recentyears more men have been taking ad¬vantage of the service.“Men have become more willing to talkabout themselves and their problems,”commented one staff memberAdjustmentMany students find themselvesdisoriented when they first arrive at theUniversity. Dr Johnston, the other full-timepsychiatrist at the clinic, emphasized theproblems of adjustment: “It happens that inthis country it is very' common to leavehome at 17 or 18 If that wasn’t so common,people would realize how large a task thatis. WTien someone grows up in the samefamily, a large set of emotional supports aretaken for granted A certain equilibrium isestablished and maintained Thisequilibrium is very important; it’s what alarge part of mental health is all aboutThings like parents, community, the sameroom, even the same bed these are veryimportant but at the same time taken forgranted Many times these contribute moreto the person’s equilibrium than he is awareof.”Graduate and transfer students, althougholder, are not exempt from this feeling ofimbalance Often students come here fromschools where many attributes of theirhome life were reinforced Living inapartments rather than dormitories,making a social life rather than, having oneorganized for them, and being in a large citythese are difficult adjustments that areusually assumed but not always realized AsDr Johnston commented, The birthdays,the passing of months, alone don’t solve theproblems.” IsolationOsolation is one of the most pervadingsenses among students. For example, theUniversity is located in a protected, inbredcommunity that is, in many ways, alienatedfrom the* rest of the city. Students’geographic distribution is so extensive thata student can return home to find himselfmiles away from any fellow Chicagostudent, states away from his roommate,and worlds apart from his family and highschool friendsThe University’s particular characterexacerbates this sense of isolation ManyChicagoans think it is an insult to comparethe school to other leading Midwesternuniversities, so there is little contact withneighboring schools Meanwhile, thephysical isolation (as well as spiritualdetachment) from Ivy League schools alsohelps place the University very much in aworld of its own.But the greatest sense of isolation ispersonal, as it relates to a student’s peersMary Elson, one of the five full-timepsychiatric social workers at the clinic,elaborated: Loneliness and isolation arevery real problems in early adulthood Thisis a time when one senses one’s loneliness ina particularly critical way. ”Rejection is a strong determinant inisolation, said Elson ‘ People reach out tounderstand other people and sometime’sthere isn’t someone there to reach backJust at the time when someone’s the mostneedy that’s the time people appear themost oblivious It’s almost as if they’resaying: I’m so exposed if someone touchesit will hurt.’ ” Dr. Johnston agreed; “For some, beinglonely is simply unpleasant, for others it isvery scary.”Stress and anxiety'Hie demands made on us as students,friends, and individuals produce stress Ifthese demands are too great or numerous,our fear of failure is heightened and webegin to feel anxious. At Chicago, there arevery few people here who haven’t had eitherfeeling. “There are some mornings whenI’m afraid to get out of bed for fear that allof the work and responsibility will comecrashing down on me,” said one fourth yearstudent.For some people, a sense of peers in¬creases their level of stress and anxiety.4 There are times when I feel that no one hasas much work to do, as far to go, or as manydecisions to make as I do I know this isabsurd, that other people are probably inexactly the same situation but I really dobelieve it at times,” a third year studentcommentedWhen Dr. Johnston first came to work forthe Peace Corps in the 1960’s, a highproportion of the young staff felt pressuredor anxious, or both “It seemed strangesince they had joined voluntarily (as op¬posed to the Draft) and knew what theywere getting involved in ” A group of doc¬tors studied the young staff and began to seepatterns, particular at times when pressureand anxiety increased Time charts, in¬dicating these patterns, were made anddistributed among the volunteers With thisemotional preparation and a sense of beingin a group came a marked decrease indepression among the staff members. “Stress from the outside doesn’t make usfeel ill,” Johnston said. “War taught us that.In a group, the amount of stress that can betolerated is enormous ” Johnston believes astudy similar to the Peace Corp’s might bebeneficial for the student body.In a way, an informal study has alreadybeen made by students and has been in usehere for years The view' of this quarter,“the winter of discontent,” has been that itis a particularly oppressive time of year Onthe many days < “sometimes it appears to beverging on six months of these days,” onegraduate student conjected * when the graysky matches the limestone buildings, ourmoods also often appear to be that way.Many students go out of their way tocounteract “the w'inter grays,” attemptingto build up a physical and psychologicalimmunity against the viral depression Onethird year student said, “People told mewhen j first got here that winter quarterswere the worst but somehow it’s been mybest quarter. Maybe it’s the natural effect ofexpecting the w'orst and hoping for thebest.”A few years ago. Dr. Kramer and the staffrecommended that some reforms be madein the housing system to create a morecongenial environment. Dr Kramerbelieves the results, the establishment ofhouse masters, resident aides and an ex¬tended Orientation program that lasts most<>f the freshman year, have been successfulin producing this atmosphereThe Age of MelancholyIn the forward to Myrna Weissman’s“Depression and Women” Dr Kleimancomments that while the 1950’s was deemed“the Age of Anxiety,” the 1970’s could becalled "the Age of Melancholy.” Apparentlythis view is shared by the Clinic’s staff andmany other professionals in the field In thespring, a major conference on depressionand youth will be sponsored by theUniversityDr Kramer believes that, to some extent,depression is more symptomatic of the ’70’sthan of youth "If you look at the media youcan see that these aren’t the happiest oftimes.”“People are always depressed nowadaysWhen was the last time you heard someonesay he was just sad-'” one graduate studentasked.Elson believes that much of this widespread depression is related not only to asense of isolation, stress and anxiety butalso to the number of decisions a youngadult has to make. As people are given morechoices, in school, careers goals, sexualrelationships, they must also make moredecisions.“There are many biological,psychological and social precipitants in¬volved,” Elson said “Generally youngadults (or late adolescents) try to detachfrom their families in a wav that is neitherrebellious nor radical, but ^"significant It isvery hard to give up the dinosaur ofchildhood but necessary to being an adultindividual Second, a person must find anacceptable standard of behavior ac¬ceptable not only among his peers but alsofor himself This includes decisions aboutmale female relationships Third, he mustfind something really useful for life w'orkRecently, people have discovered they canhave more than one vocation Last, a personmust find an acceptable sexual identityMental health to 5< Photo by.

For some peoplethis is enormously difficult ”“All these choices are particularly novelfor women,” continued Elson “Faced withmore decisions to make than their mothers,young women often have a very difficulttime responding to all of them.” Elsonadded, “On a reality level, women are moredepressed than men.”"There are times when Ifeel that no one has as muchto do, as far to go, or asmany decisions to make as Ido."Depression can arise when a recenttrauma matches an old, unresolved problemthat may have been unconsciously sub¬verted for many years. Dr. Johnstonelaborated: “If an old issue is particularlyunresolved but nothing has come along toaggravate it, then that person might feelfine For example, when a boy is five hisfather dies Now, some 15 or 20 years later,his girlfriend gives him the heave-ho All ofa sudden, he finds he’s not even functioning.He is amazed that he is so disturbed; heknows that men loose their girlfriends allthe time Another example; a person comesfrom a family that is sharply critical of himOne day a professor makes a slight remarkin passing and he finds he is very depressed,that he’s feeling ill. Emotional and physicalsupports at home are often not valued or felttheir worth until an old trauma is matchedby a new one ”Sex and romanceThe clinic staff meets weekly to discussindividual cases and quarterly with dean ofstudents in the College Lorna Straus toreport on their findings. Dr. Johnstondivided the kinds of problems discussed atthese meetings into four areas, listing themin order of frequency The most commonproblems are those involving interpersonalrelationships It is also the broadest area asthe term refers to problems with friends,family or professors, in a sense with anyother person or group of people. The nextcommon are concerns with sexualproblems Almost as common are problemsthat are school related Last are problemsrelated to home and family. From this list itseems clear that intimate relationships areoften the source of a person’s confusion andunhappiness For some students there is aneed to discuss it with professionals"There are some morningswhen I'm afraid to get out ofbed."I)r Kramer believes that a student’ssocial life (meaning more than sexualrelationships) are left up to his owninitiative. “I’m sure you know students whohave a ball here That’s largely due to theiropinions of themselves and theirmotivation ” When asked why so manypeople come to the Clinic to discuss theirrelationships, Kramer responded, “A lot ofpeople kid themselves as to how casualthese things are They deny their personalinvestment. When the other person pullsout, they’re surprised at how much ithurts ” Some people feel they must make aconscientous decision about their sociallives. “By spring quarter of my first year, Irealized I couldn’t get involved with awoman and do well in my studies Lookingback, I guess I didn’t want to get involvedAll that energy and time involved at the riskof getting hurt. Law school seemed easier,more attractive” one recent graduate of theCollege saidThere are many students who echo thisattitude, said Elson “There are people whofeel they can’t handle it both. They say, ‘If Iallow myself to get caught up in arelationship, my academics will suffer.’There is a terrible fear that increased in¬terest in other people, will involve a retreatfrom ideas Many have postponed emotionalinterests to get here Consequently there is atremendous wealth of emotional interplay;School serving as a fountainhead of whathas been postponed ”About sexual choices and practices, Dr.Johnston commented: “Many people don’thave to struggle with grave problems abouttheir sexuality Their families have beenopen and tolerant But some students at¬tempt to answer such deep questions as“Am I homosexual ’ or Will I ever behappily married ’ ”"During the ages 17 to 25, aperson makes a privatedefinition of his sexualrole."Clearly there is an enormous variety inpersonal sets of value, .fohnston com¬mented: “During the ages 17-25, a personmakes a private definition of his sexual roleHis experience may be very low. his con¬fidence may be low from home, or if it's notlow. then perhaps it’s vague His roommatemay be doing things he never realized otherpeople did ”From discussions with Clinic staffmembers and students, it can be inferredthat at Chicago sexual relationships arecommon < in that many people have them)and are often casual but the students’feeling involved are very personal andanything but casual“On the one hand peopie here are veryopen about sex. but on the other, this at¬mosphere is incredibly conducive tomonogomous relationships and not muchelse The social base unit is two Everyonemoves in pairs,” a fourth year student said“There is a lot of pressure on people tohave sex, but more than that, to enter intopersonal relationships.” a third yearstudent addedComfort and helpPerhaps the most consoling thing aboutthese problems is that they are shared, theyare common Each year a good percentageof the student body visits the Clinic whichonly handles these kinds of problems.Students with serious problems are referredto the hospital Interviewed students, noneof whom had visited the Clinic, echoedseveral of the impressions expressed byClinic staff membersThe Clinic’s full-time staff consists of twopsychiatrists and five psychiatric socialworkers Located at 574’- S Drexel, theClinic’s phone number is 75,'5-2.!:52 Thomas J. Cottle College: Reward andBetrayal. Chicago: The University ofChicago Press, 1977 190 pages (Cloth)$1095Thomas J. Cottle describes his book“College: Reward and Betrayal” as “acollection of highly personalizedstatements.” This is both an apt charac¬terization of the book and an indication of itsprimary weaknessCottle attempts to tie together a variety ofways of looking at college: as an Americaninstitution bringing to focus numeroussocial and political forces; as a stage in thepsychological development of young adults;as an educational phenomenon tom betweentraditional and modern influences; and as adevice for learning about conflicts ofachievement, careerism, political activism,sex roles, etc And he employs a variety ofmethods in this attempt, such as interviewswith people involved in college as students,parents, teachers, ot; administrators,descriptions of his own experiences andfeelings as a junior faculty member waitingfor tenure, sociological andpsychoanalytical descriptions of modernAmerica, and sketches of two quite differentcolleges Earlham in Indiana andColumbia College in Chicago.This eclectic approach, while allowingCottle to present insights which could not beobtained by any one method, makes thebook structurally weak. anddisorganized Cottle's description of hisbook as a "collection’’ is very appropriate:the separate portions blur any sense ofunitv In such a personal collection that mavbe expected: but at times the reader is lefthanging. Why are the chapters on the twocolleges located where they are-' Given hisstress on the meaning of college for thoseattending it, is the chapter on Cottle’s ownstruggles over tenure meant to give us aflavor of w hat college means to those on theother side, or are we to draw connectionswith theses he presents in other portions ofthe book? In his epilogue Cottle seems tocommend in a lukewarm way those who aimfor “a university predicated on love” ratherthan on the need to achieve. If so. why doeshe not make more value judgments earlierin his discussions, rather than makingapparently objective observations in thesections where he discusses achievement'’The psychological and sociological sec¬tions provide some of Cottle’s most in¬teresting ideas, but at times try also makethis book frustrating reading The firstparagraph of the epilogue offers a goodsummary of Cottle’s main themes here:The last decades have seen enormoustransformations in the roles of parentsand children, and in the relationdefinitions of the male and female rolein the family and the society generallyNot only have these changes been ob¬served by psychologists andsociologists, but the very observationsof the professionals have affected thenature of the family and the stated andunstated expectations of young peopleentering college The cycle of change iscompleted when the expectations of thenew generation of students results inchanges within their colleges. Cottle contends, for example, that as therole of the sexes became less rigid, fathersno longer simply “represented an emotionalneutrality but an unequivocal morality” -nor were mothers always supportive andemotional This blurring of roles gave rise towhat he calls “the egalitarian family,” inwhich communication became importantand authority was no longer simply defined.Inevitably, when children of such familiesarrived "at college, there w'ere reper¬cussions; as a result, in addition to con¬tinuing the classical tradition of analyticalskills applied impersonally to realms ofknowledge, educators found it necessap' toallow' children to integrate their emotionalcommunicative skills into their educationThus the idea of personally relevanteducation was born, an education in whichexpression of individual feelings is arecognized source of knowledge Thiscoincided Cottle asserts, with the entranceof more minrritv and working-classstudents into colleges, so that the “blackexperience.” tor example, was now animportant subject of study. For middleclass or affluent students who had beenraised with the traditional values ofachieving success, a conflict often resultedwhen new means of achievement becamejust as valid as those their parents hadfollowed.Cottle's stress on the family, for example,often results in such highly generalizedstatements as those just described, whichare in sharp contrast to the extremelyspecific personal statements that constituteso much of the book In a way this is per¬fectly logical: Cottle's emphasis on thedistinction between the traditionalanalytical impersonal, and the new elementexperiential personal brands of education isreflected in his organization of the bookCottle blends the analytical (in thepsychological and sociological discussions >and the personal (in his interviews andaccounts of his own experiences) Yet hispsychology is too generalized, too inclined toover-simplify and stereotype the Americanfamily and to gloss over the enormousvariations in the college expereiences ofstudents across the country Added to thedisconnected structure of the book and thefluctuation between extremes, this can attimes make the reader wish that Cottle hadwritten either a strictly psychological studyor a memoir but not "bothThough flawed, the book is not withoutvalue In his introduction. Cottle writes,this is a personal book about highereducation, although not strictly anautobiographical one. It is a bookpredicated on listening to what somepeople have to say about highereducation as much as on thinking aboutwhat others have said or written I hopeit will invite others to explore their ownlives and educational histories.At times Cottle achieves this aim andraises some thought-provoking questionsabout issues that college students, for one,can benefit from considering Unfortunatelythis is not enough to prompt one to pick upthe book with any enthusiasmEllen Hamingson is a third-year historymajor in the CollegeThursdayJan. 12Cobb Hall Meters VIXEN7:00,9:00, 11:00No One Admitted Under 18 withDoo-right Productions Presents:Erica GavinHarrison PageLoony Tues “Cinderella Meets A Fella”Both $1.50/Cartoon Only $.75/Vixen Only $2.00alsoThe Chicago maroon — Tuesday, January 8,1978 - 5CalendarTuesdayHillel: Hug Ivrit, informal HEBREWDISCUSSION GROUP. 12 noon; Advancedconversational Hebrew; Philosophy &Traditions of Jewish Mourning. 8 pm;Modern Dance. 8 pm, Hillel.Students International MeditationSociety; “Education and Enlightenment." 7pm.
