‘A Mind-Boggling Experience ‘Returns from Special UN Session Legtalative Librar Parliament Buttaings, Dear Ann Landers: I am the mother of a college student who is a senior ata univeralty rated among the top 20 in the country, From personal observation, I can state that the current college student is foul-mouthed, slovenly if not filthy, drug-oriented, conditioned to free sex (couples living together without parental knowledge or legal ties) and contemptuous of, if not hostile to, the police or any organization that has rules, standards, and goals. In other words, the universities have spawned 5 ghetto environment, and the professors, by their attitudes, ¢ are prompting ‘a ghetto culture. Parents who can avoid it don't allow their children to live in the ghetto, so why pay the colleges and universities to provide such environment? —Fed U Dear Fed: How many campuses have you visited? In the past two yearaI've been a guest at Notre Dame, Yale, Harvard, M.LT., the University of Chieago, the Schoo! of the Ozarks in Missouri, Ricks College in Idaho, the University of Salt Lake City, and Michigan Suate—t0 name.a few. T'e seen no evidence to support ‘your charges. Granted some students on campuses are living together * without parental knowledge or legal ties, but they are the odd, couples and do not represent the student body. ‘With money in short supply and competition for jobs, college is serious business these days. Parents who are spending thousands of dollars to keep thelr children in school expect performance. What's more, the requirements for entrance to professional schools are murderous. I don’t know where you've been looking, lady, but I've seen. thousands of hard-working, no-nonsense students in my travels and I feel the future ds in n good hands: Dear Ann: This is for “I Love ‘Animals, ,"Too—But."

He came to admire the personal dedication of many of the Thled’ World (poorer coun- tries) delegates to the struggle for international justice. He also commented, “They're no country peasants. They know * what they're after for thelr people, what they're up against and how to get on with the task. Fr. Godderis was also struck with the inaccuracy of many of the press, radioand TV reports of the Special Session, He felt many reporters simply had not done their homework, spoke to the wrong people, and didn't even try. to give an accurate impression of what was actually happening. Fre Godderie will be re- porting his impressions at a public meeting at St, Davi Church, 1401 Columbia Ave., on ‘Tuesday, Oct. 7 at 7.90 p.m. All sna interested are urged to ater we will also be a guest on CKQR's "Heartbeat", at 9.05 a.m, on Oct. 5.
