Four-lettered slogans and X-rated
sketches on college hallway walls
and restroom plaster are being
scrubbed off or painted over for a
hallowed time coming up on many
college campuses again this fall —
Parents Day.
It happens at the Harvards, Yales
and Princetons of the land, as well
as in the less-better-known schools,
be they private or in the state uni
versity and college systems.
Students joke about the sanitizing
as schools try to look good to to the
folks nearly pauperized by bloated
college bills.
But parents still have a way to get
an insider’s view — including items
administrators may not like them to
know. This is thanks to William H.
Haight, himself a student some
years back.
Haight, a journalist, is into his
sixth year as editor and publisher of
“National On-Campus Report,” a
monthly newsletter put out in
Madison, Wis., and costing $28 a
year.
From his office at 621 N. Sher
man Ave., Haight said he s got his
finger on the campus pulse. Reports
in his newsletter show he speaks the
truth.
They include some surprising
items for parents as well as solid
stuff for students who need all the

information they can get to keep up
with goings-on in higher education,
including high jinks.
The items won’t relate what’s
been removed from campus u'alls
and restrooms to save parents from
shock but they are revealing.
For instance:
—What’s bizarre on campus: stu
dent newspapers stolen in bulk,
often by thieves who have some in
terest in suppressing the contents of
a particular issue. Three times the
paper at the Florida State Univer
sity has been stolen. Bundles also
have been stolen at the University
of Utah, at the University of
Florida, for two more examples.
— Marijuana is favored 3-to-l
over tobacco at the University of
Colorado. A journalism class survey
discovered that 56 percent smoke
marijuana while only 20 percent
smoke cigarettes.
MANOR EAST 3 THEATRES
MANOR CAST MALL «23 A30Q
—More on marijuana: Today 11
out of 20 college students nation
wide have tried marijuana and two
out of 20 use it every day. Fifteen
percent of auto accidents are linked
with marijuana intoxication.
—Student’s access to food stamps
will be restricted by new' rules
proposed by the U.S. Department
of Agriculture. Students over IS re
ceiving food stamps must register
for at least 20 hours work per week,
under the new rules. During a
school break of more than 30 days
they must register for full-time
work. The new regulations also
make students ineligible if they are
claimed or could properly be
claimed as dependents by a taxpayer
in a household not itself eligible for
food stamps.
—A new activity on the Michigan
State University campus this fall
might be disco skating. An experi
ment there this summer showed the
event popular with students who
rent the roller skates for .50 cents an
hour.
—Seven-months social probation
was the penalty the University of
Alabama Interfraternity Council
handed the Omega Psi Phi frater
nity for a hazing violation. The
punishment came after the mother
of a pledge reported her son had
been beaten with a broomstick.
—A student who had listed a pre
vious abortion on her records at the
University of Wisconsin Hospital
with firms that discriminate.
The mood on all campusesthisS
is to push for divestment of sud
vestments as a sign of disproval
the white supremacy policyii
Africa. If the fi nancial loss at
University of Wisconsin istypidi
losses universities may expeti®
by divestment, schools will nedi
look elsewhere to make up
money — probably pushing upk
tions some more

CYRA McFADDEN’S BESTSELLING SATIRE
ON AMERICAN SUBURBIA IS BACK-IN A
$1.95 SIGNET PAPERBACK
A YEAR IN THE LIFE OF MARIN COUNTY
Cyra McFadden
Complete u/ith Original Illustrations
If there’s life beyond death, it's in Marin County,
California, where the game is to Get Out in Front
of It, Stay Mellow At All Costs, and evolve in a
mind-boggling mosaic of chessboard alliances and
hip-cultural mind-sets.
THE SERIAL: it's a rollicking 52-gush soap opera
of pseudo-sophistication, mountaintop weddings,
and creative divorce groups, where you’ll meet
Kate and Harvey Holroyd, your average laid back
Marin County couple.
