CAMPUS UPDATE, OCTOBER 14, 1981, PAGE 2 Editorial Page So often does the threat of violence enter into the realm of peace. Last week’s assassination of Anwar Sadat brings this fact further into focus. After several years of bloodshed within the Middle East, a vision of peace came about from the Camp David Accords. Menechem Begin and Sadat were able to settle differences with mediator Jimmy Carter. The event was hailed as a new hope for uniting the Arab countries. Now in a shower of bullets, one of the primary peacemakers is dead. The eyes of the world are now on Egypt. A feeling of confusion and uncertainty about the future prevails. The events that unfold will no doubt have an effect on the United States and our foreign policy. We can only hope that the agreements and ideals for peace did not die with Anwar Sadat.

Now don't give up, there’s probably a perfect- ly plausible explanation for such a. horrendous attendance record. Maybe there was another death in the family. Of course, it is rather hard to believe that an instructor could lose eight sisters, six brothers, three uncles, two grandmothers, and a pregnant gerbil, all in the span of a week, but | suppose stranger things have happened. Anyway, whatever the excuse is for cancellation today, an untimely out-of-state telephone call, a badly scheduled dental appointment, or even. more inconvenient, a sudden Pease of the 24-hour flu, these rea- sons become rather ; inadequate when the student considers the cost of a cancelled class, both in econ- omic and educational terms. Some students don’t even know who their instructors are or if they actually exist, so these students have taken it upon themselves to carry out classroom activities with- out a leader in the hopes that some- day one will appear. Other students say they are growing tired of having to look at the same. old cancellation sheets their instructors tack up on the bul- letin board everytime he or she is going to be absent. Wouldn't it be more creative and exciting if an instructor was to hire a stunt-pilot to fly his plane over | the campus, do a few loop-T-loops to catch the students’ attention, then proceed to spell out in colored smoke plumes the message, ‘’Mr. Pudrinski’s hygiene class is can- celled today.”” Another fascinating possibility might be to have a’ Goodrich blimp- what, oh that’s right, they’re the other guys-correction, a Goodyear blimp, float by the college with a long pennant attached behind it, flowing gently in the breeze, an- “ nouncing the cancellation of class. Still more breath-taking, eye- grabbing, and heart-stopping, would be to have a massive triple-layered, Tutti-Frutti loaf cake, sitting in the center of the room when the stu- ‘dents enter. Then, right on schedule, a show girl could pop out of the cake, turn around, bend over, and there's Mrs. Tittlesneak’s cancella- tion written right across the girl’s, well, you know... Now, | think I’ve come up with a good idea, no, an. ingenious idea, which may help to alleviate this problem of absent instructors and give our alienated students some hope for the future. * The plan is this. lf an instructor is absent for any reason, a guest in- structor could be provided to take over.for that day, week, or indefin- ite- period of time the regular in- structor is gone. That’s right. Just like when David Letterman takes over the Johnny Carson Show when Johnny goes on vacation. The only difference would be, that if while the regular instructor is gone the students decide they prefer the guest instructor, the reg- ular instructor would be forced to bow out gracefully. | admit, I’m not quite sure how well this part of my little under- taking is going to go over with ev- erybody involved, but like they say, you can’t please everybody, so | won't bother trying. In the event that. someone does have a few comments concerning my. flawless plan, even it they hap- pen to be unfavorable, don’t be afraid to let me know. | can take a little criticism-and Ill punch out anyone who says | can’t.
