DEDICATION

An era is an ambivalent thing. It is chronological

yet quite unmeasurable in t ime, wel l def ined yet

inextr icably interwoven with past and future, per-

sonal yet greater than any man. Such a pheno-

menon is that with which this book concerns itself,

being an attempt to record, to underscore, and to

honor the accomplishments and aspirations of Irwin

J. Lubbers in his tenure as President of Hope Col-

lege. At the beginning of this, his second, decade it

seems most proper that we, the students and faculty

who are the college, pause a moment with him to

reflect upon the past and try to see the future in

true perspective.

Coming from a fami ly steeped in the t radi t ion of

Hope, Irwin J. Lubbers acquired a b road back-

ground in graduate work at Columbia and North-

western Universities, in serving as pr incipal of a pre-

paratory school in South India, and as Assistant to

the President at Carrol l Col lege. From 1934 to 1945

he led Central Col lege through those depression

years so painfu l and precarious for the small, pri-

vate college and through years of war which dras-

t ical ly reduced student enrollments.

Hope College in the years fo l lowing W o r l d W a r

II was faced with problems of even greater complex-

ity, such as a spiral ing enrol lment, an inadequate

physical plant, an overtaxed facul ty, and inevitably

strained f inancial resources. The inaugurat ion of Ir-

win J. Lubbers as seventh president of Hope College

in 1945 signified the advent of a new era because,

not content with pious hopes or with existential solu-

tions, he pursued a program which was to cope with

the radical ly changed circumstances without alter-

ing the t radi t ional character and f lavor of the in-

stitution. Neither doctr inaire l iberal nor conservative,

the philosophy of this man is, nevertheless, not ob-

scure. It is perhaps best found in his contention that

"on ly God- fear ing leaders can exercise authori ty

without endanger ing f reedom."

This MILESTONE, we dare to hope, witnesses to

the enviable response of a man to his times, to the

"Lubbers' Era."

CHAPEL

Humanity at 7 :59 A.M. Al though the chapel is the scene of that impressive annual ceremony known as Convocat ion, it is much more intimately associated in the mind of the average Hope student with the often stimulating, though occasionally laborious, beginning of the day.

DISCOURSE

Hope Memor ia l Chapel provides a striking background for events rang ing f rom the academic panoply of opening ceremonies to the reflective mood of Religious Emphasis Week . But the opening days al low of little reflection as stu-dents lose themselves in a chaos of registrat ion lines, book-store qrowds, gap ing neophytes, and upper class reunions. The semester's t readmil l has begun.

ORIENTATION

Rosy Appearances. During their first week on Hope's campus, freshmen lead the proverb ia l "L i fe of Ri ley." Being hampered only occasional ly by relat ively distaste-ful things such as p l a c e m e n t e x a m s a n d p r o g r a m scheduling, they are fe ted at a fo rmal facul ty recept ion, amused at the Y-sponsored beach par ty , and foo led at the Freshman Mixer .

LEGISLATION

Brutal Realities. Gi lbert and Sullivan have nothing over Hope Col lege when it comes to the judicial proceedings of this week. Stern juries, obstinate judges, and severe penalties do little to reassure the implor ing glances of the anxious defendant . The sardonic amusement of up-perclassmen at Kangaroo Court is matched only by the appa l l ing degrada t ion of the freshmen.

Page 16: Milestone 1956

Humanists, social scientists, and administrators call this venerable structure home. Built shortly af ter the turn of the century, Van Raalte Hall provides the first evidence of the impact of the Lubbers' administ rat ion on Hope's campus. Renovation of classroom faci l i t ies, remodel ing of the main f loor as a home for admini -strative offices, provision for an off ice of the student government, and development t h r o u g h t h e Koffee Kletz and television lounge toward a student union give some indicat ion of the scope of efforts made to improve this center of col lege act ivi ty.

Fall is a many splendored th ing, and among its facets is foo tba l l , an Amer ican der ivat ive of English rugby. Al though the Flying Dutchmen cannot be said to win incessantly, they seldom fai l to present an af ternoon of good entertainment. Amid the deafen-ing clamor can be heard the resounding strains of the Hope Col lege Band, the implor ing calls of the em-bat t led cheerleaders, and the cries of the Arcadians.

Blood, sweat, and tears are not peculiar to Sir Winston Churchil l 's war t ime Eng-land, but are shed annual ly at a phenomenon occurr ing on the banks of the Black River. Inspired efforts by the freshman team and coach notwi thstanding, the sopho-more class, impel led by t rad i t ion, was victorious. Regardless of the outcome, how-ever, weeks of intensive t ra in ing, good-na tu red r ivalry, and the in tangib le support of morale girls made this year 's event, as always, unforgetab le .

AND PROGRESS

Progress may mean all things to all men, but it certainly seems an appropr ia te descript ion of this year of the "Lubbers ' Era," so noted as it was for construction activity. O f course, a ground break ing ceremony is only the culmination of a strenu-ous process of f inancial campaign ing, consulting architects, draf t ing, and contract-ing. The new Men's Dormitory and the Music Building can hardly fai l to fulfi l l long-felt needs and prov ide for future expansion.

HOMECOMING BEAUTY

W h e n alumni and fr iends of the col lege return to Hol land for the Homecoming weekend, they are engul fed in a melange of parades, athletic contests, open houses, banquets, and re-unions. Yet beneath the gloss and pageant ry and prompted by the spir i ted compet i t ion among societies for the adject ive " b e s t " among floats and house decorat ions, lie many cramped, weary hours of p lanning and labor , wrested steadfast ly f rom academic pursuits.

«> %

Homecoming is an event common to the Amer ican col legiate scene, but on every campus it has a charm all its own. The f lavor of homecoming at Hope Col lege can perhaps best be sensed in the imposing array of beauty that is the Queen's Court, this year composed of Ethelanne Peelen, Yvonne Nyenhuis, Jocelyn Fryling, Shirley Schaafsma, Norma Damstra, Suzie Van Slager-en, and Barbara Grootenhuis under the sovereignty of Isla Van Eenenaam.

INTELLECTUAL

If night dates, "sack ou t " periods, and co-operat ive study are discounted, the l ibrary may truly be said to be a place where the intellect ranges freely. It is no mere plat i tude at Hope to call the l ibrary " the heart of the campus," for a cont inual ly expand ing col lection of books and per iodicals, the instal lat ion of steel stacks and carrels, and the add i t ion of microfi lm facil i t ies have made Graves Library invaluable to the striving young scholar. Another evidence of the "Lubbers ' Era" is the construction just this year of an advanced laboratory for use by the students of the modern languages.

Page 23: Milestone 1956

Be he an Iowa farmer or New York suburbanite by or ig in, the student at Hope Col lege has ample opportuni ty to taste of a var ied cultural diet. Besides the usual series of symphonic, operat ic , and virtuoso programs sponsored by the Hol land Civic Music Associat ion in co l laborat ion with Hope Col lege, guest organizat ions such as the Baylor University Glee Club appear at intervals on campus. The Hope student, if his tastes and abi l i ty impel him, can not only par take of these offer ings, but may himself enter the realm of creativi ty in junior and senior recital.

AESTHETIC

Page 24: Milestone 1956

Late into the night burn the lights of the Science Bui lding. From amidst the odors and maze of apparatus so characterist ic of the scientific disciplines emerge students who are wel l p repared to take their place in the g row ing ranks of Hope men in science. The most tang ib le evidence of superior i ty in the study of physical and natural science at Hope Col lege is real ized through annual endowments f rom many respected firms.

CONCENTRATION

Page 25: Milestone 1956

The Nykerk Cup Contest sponsored by the student council annual ly pits against each other the freshman and sophomore girls in vocal, dramat ic, and orator ica l r ivalry. The enthusiasm of the compet i t ion invar iably results in a pleasurable evening for the students in at tendance, if not for the gal lant ladies who are the principals. This year , apparent ly as undiscipl ined as last, the girls of the freshman class emerged victorious f rom the nineteenth annual contest.

CHRISTMAS PEACE

Amid the relentless drive of contemporary American society, the student at Hope Col lege, despite occasional laments, soon becomes unconsciously at tached to the tranqui l i ty of Sunday af ternoon in Hol land. The Pine Grove, central to the col lege campus and revered as an except ional remnant of virgin t imber, seems most nearly pastoral in deep (or, if you must, mid-) winter, with the mellow chimes of Hope Memor ia l Chapel pro-v id ing a f i t t ing reminder of the hour in a wor ld of timeless speculation.

Page 27: Milestone 1956

CHRISTMAS MUSIC

Music is a part of Christmas. As the angels, above the ancient Judean plain, announced with heavenly music the birth of the Savior, so on Hope's campus the joy that springs f rom peace and good wil l finds its finest expression in song. The classic d igni ty and convict ion of "The Messiah, the simple joy and firm fa i th of the carols and hymns, interpreted each year by the col lege musical organizat ions, renew in the hearts of the students the happy real izat ion that man and G o d indeed may

dwel l together .

Whi le l iberal educat ion t radi t ional ly consists in a search for eternal stan-dards of truth, beauty, and goodness, even the Platonist can hardly avoid reducing his ideals to a mere struggle for physical survival when final ex-aminat ions approach. Fortunate is the Hope scholar if research and seminar papers are out of the way, for these are weeks of "a l l -n igh te rs , " no-doz pills, and early morning trips for l i fe sustaining coffee.

Andrew Carnegie dispensed the greatest part of his for tune in g iv ing l ibraries to townships and col leges, but, rather signif icant ly, he found it necessary to give Hope Col lege her gymnasium. Af ter serving for nearly 50 years, the o ld bu i ld ing demanded a face- l i f t ing, and in view of the many functions for which the bui ld ing now serves, the Schouten-Carnegie Gym-nasium has become a major center of campus act ivi ty. That the " o l d g i r l " shows the strength of her bui lders is ev idenced in her survival of such foot-loose and fancy- f ree affairs as the Penny Carnival .

The most apparent evidence of the ex-pansion characterist ic of the "Lubbers ' Era" is the construction of the new Music Building and the Men's Dormitory. These structures wil l fill a long and pinching need. The music department has historical-ly contended with inadequate and incon-venient faci l i t ies.

The lack of adequate men's housing has not only compl icated the problem of the Dean of Men but also has in a real sense l imited the expansion of the col lege. Thus this year's addi t ions in instructional and housing faci l i t ies must be considered a giant stride of progress.

The resurgence of l i fe in the Spring is accompan ied by feverish outdoor activity on the part of the student body, occasion-ally at the expense of academics. Particu-lar ly prominent on campus ' dur ing these days are the Faculty of Music and its stu-dents, wi th their ambit ious plans for junior and senior recitals, Symphonette and Chapel Choir tours. These are hectic, ex-pansive, unforgetab le days.

FORMALITY

Page 37: Milestone 1956

Spring, for some students, means a faster tempo of activit ies and new exhiler-at ing experiences. If one can rouse him-self f rom the enervat ion of spring fever, he can hear the call of the open sea; and a sail on ne ighbor ing Lake Mich igan is not dif f icult to ar range.

ENERVATION

Prepared by long hours on the beach and on the roof of Durfee Hall, the pastel beauty of Hope's coeds reigns supreme dur ing the Festival of the May Pole. The queen, Lois Tornga, and her court symbolize the return of beauty to a winter-weary campus, and beginning outdoor athletic activities indicate the renewal of energy. There is evidence, however, that the transit ion is not always made without di f f icul ty.

The Board of Trustees is the governing body of Hope Col lege. It consists of for ty- two members and the President of the col lege. Nine members are selected by The General Synod, five by the Board of Trustees, and the remainder by the various classes or part icular synods of the Reformed Church. They hold off ice for six years and ar.e the regularly constituted corporat ion under which the col lege acts. The energy and foresight of the Board is to a large degree responsible for the progress and expansion of Hope Col lege dur ing the "Lubbers Era" .

Coming to Hope in 1954 with an extensive back-ground in phi losophy and psychology, Dr. Wi l l i am Vander Lugt assumed the duties of Act ing Dean just this year, in the absence of John W . Hollen-bach who is on an extended leave of absence at the University of Cairo. As Dean of the Col lege, Dr. Vander Lugt's pr imary responsibi l i ty is the di-rection of the academic program of the col lege, and the formulat ion of academic pol icy in con-junction with the Educational Policies Commit ioe of the facul ty.

DEAN OF WOMEN

Coming f rom Berea Col lege in 1946, Dean Reeverts spends the great-est part of her t ime ar rang ing for women's dormi tory accommodat ions and counseling indiv idual women students. Besides being hostess to many student and facul ty gather ings at Gi lmore Cot tage, Miss Reeverts acts as advisor to Alcor , Pan-Hellenic Board, and various women s service groups. Academica l ly , she teaches a l imited schedule of courses in the English Department, special iz ing in the Victor ian per iod.

Mi l ton L. Hinga served Hope for many years as coach and Director of Athletics, discontinuing these duties in 1948 to assume the responsi-bil it ies of the Dean of Men and Director of Counseling. As Dean, he sees to the maintenance of order and good behaviour of the men stu-dents. Dean Hinga is looking f o rwa rd eager ly to the complet ion of the new Men's Dormitory which wil l local ize his problems, if not solve them. The Dean serves as advisor to the Student Council, Blue Key, and the

Most of the of f ice space on the main f loor of Van Raalte Hall is commandeered by four administrators concerned with academic and business aspects of mainta in ing a col lege. One of the largest offices is under the supervision of the Registrar, Rev. Paul E. Hinkamp, who has served the Col lege in teaching and administrat ive capaci -ties since 1918 and this year comes to the time of his ret irement. Mr . A lber t Timmer, Director of Admissions, is concerned with the problem of l imit ing the enrol lment in the face of an increasing number of appl icat ions. The duties of the Treasurer, Mr . Henry Steffens, dai ly become more complex as the Col lege continues an era of progress and expansion. Mr. Rein Visscher, Business Manager , is concerned with most activit ies on the campus, his interests rang ing f rom the eff iciency of the Koffee Kletz to the entertainment of visit ing parents at Commencement.

One of the earliest innovations of the "Lubbers Era" was the establishment of Faculty Honors. Since Hope Col lege stu-dents are not e l ig ib le for Phi Beta Kappa membership, it was felt that the faculty should recognize dist inguished students in some local formal i ty . Thus since 1946 the faculty has selected a small group of honor students f rom among the graduat ing sen-iors, basing its selection on scholastic achievement, evidence of sterling charac-ter, leadership on the campus, and service to the col lege community. At a special honors convocat ion toward the close of the academic year , the Faculty Honors students are presented with a ci tat ion of achieve-ment, and shortly before Commencement are entertained at luncheon by the facul ty. To the honor students of the class of 1956, as well as to those of previous years, the students and faculty extend their fe l ic i ta-

tions.

Alcor is an honor society of senior women, chosen on the basis of scholarship, leadership, character, and service to the col lege. Alcor aims to stimulate cultural and academic as well as social interests at Hope. These purposes are accompl ished through var ied projects, such as a series of films chosen for their artistic merit; In-ternat ional night, which features the talents of many fore ign students; and numerous al l -col lege teas, the most important of which is the Honors Tea for students on the Dean's List. Alcor is perhaps most fami l iar to campus students through its chief money-making project, the selling of candy and fruit in all dormitor ies and f raterni ty houses every Wednesday night.

Primary aims of the ANCHOR staff this year have been to publish a newspaper devoted to better coverage of campus news, freer expression of student opin ion, and a higher s tandard of feature wr i t ing. To the latter end, the year saw the publ icat ion of several issues of the ANCHOR-LINE, a supplement of outstanding student wr i t ing selected by the Creat ive Wr i t i ng Seminar, under the direct ion of Miss Mar jo r ie Pickens.

Much of the work of the YMCA was co-ordinated with that of the YWCA through-

out the year. Fol lowing the annual Fail Banquet for freshmen sponsored by the Y's,

they joined to support the Mission Drive and Religious Emphasis Week with happy

results. A Quadrennia l Conference in Athens, Ohio, attended by a delegat ion f rom

Hope, helped to stimulate and strengthen a wor ld-wide Christian awareness under the

theme of "Revolution and Reconcil iation." YM-YW programming was further enhanced

through deputat ion teams, sponsorship of weekly chapel services, and meditat ion

services.

In November Delphis and their dates went on a treasure hunt; this evening was c l imaxed with a spaghett i and gar l i c -bread dinner a r ranged by Marc ia Veldman.

February was perfect for an a f ternoon of tobog-ganing and skating at Echo Val ley and dinner and danc ing in Kalamazoo. This year 's in formal par ty , p lanned by Ethel Ann Peelen and Mary Lou Van Es, wi l l be remembered as one of the best.

Wi th March came the Al l -Col lege Sing. Marc ia Veldman directed us in a clever ar rangement of "Com in ' Through the Rye," which won first place. Spare moments this spring were spent on our b ig project of redecorat ing and refurnishing the soror-ity room.

After the summer vacat ion, the Dorians be-came re-acquainted for a year of fun and fel lowship at their annual fa l l house par ty held at Tim-Buc-ll. Sixteen new members jo ined the society at a welcoming banquet at Cumerford 's restaurant. Homecoming was a busy weekend for the Dorians. They held their alumni breakfast at the Tulip Room in the W a r m Friend and then rushed to see " K i t n a p p e d , " their f loat, in the homecoming parade.

Everyone enjoyed the formal , "Harvest Moon Bal l , " held at Blythefield Country Club in November . During the Christmas season, the Dorians cont inued their t rad i t ion of service by buying and w rapp ing food and gifts for a needy fami ly .

In January Kappa Beta Phi held their date night and hayr ide, culminat ing in a " r i p -roar in ' " square dance. Ann B loodgood helped to ar range "Sea M o o d s " for the All-Col lege Sing, and Margery Addis was chair-man of the Penny Carnival booth.

Sophomore and transfer students were soon p ledged, t reated to dinner at the house of Shirley Hop, and taken on the annual Sib hike under Mar jo r i e De Wi t t ' s di-rection. "The Egg and I , " the float constructed under Fran Kramer's supervision, won second place in the Homecoming parade . November was high-l ighted by the date-n ight scavenger hunt.

The Mor ton House in February was the scene of the formal party, " W i s h i n g on a Star. Ethel Smith, Mary Al ice Ferguson, and their committees p lanned what turned out to be a successful even-ing.

Dressed in red, whi te, and blue, the Sibs were directed by Nancy Lubben in " O f Thee I Sing at the Hope Col lege Sing in March. Other Spring events included joint meetings with A.S.A. and the Knickerbockers, the Spring Informal, and a final house party. " O u r a ims , our hopes are a l l in t h e e "

A lively house party In September set the year's mood for Sorosltes. Enthusiastic pledges were soon added to the group, feted at a dinner in The Red Brick Tavern at Plainwell, and introduced to the alumnae at the Homecoming luncheon.

Following Christmas vacat ion, Sorosites gathered in Dr. Lubbers' home for a spaghett i dinner. In February the group held a successful fo rmal party, " B r i g a d o o n , " at Spring Lake.

The Spring season was highl ighted by the Al l Col lege Sing, in which Jean Kroman directed Sorosites in " O l d King Co le . " The annual Delphi — Sorosis St. Patrick's Day Tea, and the telegram service at the Penny Carnival were fo l lowed in May by the informal party at Castle Park.

The year was concluded with a farewel l house-party for the Sorosites.

A fo rmal and an in formal in i t iat ion were held for the pledges. The latter consisted of a variety pro-gram, slave sale, and a " b a l l and cha in " for each p ledge.

Thesaurians next became carpenters as they worked on their Homecoming f loat, " G r e a t Expec-ta t ions, " under the direct ion of Florence Parker. Plans for the homecoming luncheon were also under way, supervised by Doris Stoffregen.

In November the Thesaurians turned from car-pentry to cooking, and p lanned an Ital ian spaghett i dinner which preceeded a scavenger hunt. This date night was in charge of Mar lene Hartger ink.

Janice Conkl in was in charge of the winter formal , "Twi l ight Stars," which was held in Grand Rapids and was the highl ight of the Thesaurian social schedule.

In March Janice Conkl in d i rected the Thesaurians in the Al l -Col lege Sing. To complete the year 's agenda, Thesaurians enjoyed a Spring Informal and a houseparty.

The ninth year of Chi Phi Sigma proved to be a successful one, with the add i t ion of a wel l - rounded p ledg ing class to the f raterni ty.

Continuing their winning ways, the Arcadians received the float championship, their fourth in the last six years, with "For Whom the Bell Tol ls." Transformed into "The Light House," in order to welcome the alumni. The Arcad ian house won second place honors.

The fraterni ty members had an opportuni ty to become acquainted with the br ide of our faculty advisor, Mr. Roger Rietberg, at a party given after Christmas.

"The Student Prince," the formal party held at the Pantlind Hotel, and the Spring party held at Prospect Point were the social highlights of the season. Under the direct ion of Jim Neevel, the Arcadians par t ic ipated in the Al l -Col lege Sing with " O n e W o r l d . " In add i t ion, serenades and open houses continued to unite the men of the f raterni ty of service, love, and wisdom.

On the shores of Lake Michigan at the spring stag party, the senior members left Chi Phi Sigma to join the growing ranks of alumni.

For f h e m e n o f K n i c k e r b o c k e r t h e academic year 1955-56 began with a r igor-ous and successful rushing campaign which brought the membership of the f raterni ty to above sixty. Wh i le much of the year was in-terspersed with date nights and open houses, "Black M a g i c , " the annual winter formal held at the Occ identa l Hotel in Muskegon, remains the most memorable social event.

Spirit and unity in the f raterni ty were stimulated by a second place in the All-Col-lege Sing, in which the men of Knickerbocker directed by Nick Pool sang "The New Ash-molean March ing Society and Student Con-servatory Band. " This t rend was ampl i f ied by a b lood drive and the complet ion of the co-operat ive study room in the basement of Graves Library.

A sum of money w a s d o n a t e d by t h e fraterni ty to Graves Library in order to establish the Todayon M e m o r i a l F u n d in books concerning the Near and M idd le East. Ma j id Tadayon, a former brother, was kil led in a tragic automobi le accident in June, 1954.

Cl imaxing a highly satisfactory school year was the annual Spring Party where boat ing, promenading, and danc ing were the rule.

The men of Fraternal began this year 's activities with a successful rushing program that saw the acceptance of a select group of men into the mem-bership of the Society. The p ledge ini t iat ion pro-ject, consisting of large paddles conta in ing lists of Fraternal graduates since the late 1800's, was suc-cessfully carr ied out by the pledges in the true spirit of Fraternal.

The Fraternal Society held their annual winter formal , "La Nuit a Paris," in the Grand Ballroom of the Pantl ind Hotel, and it was enjoyed by those present.

Other events held throughout the school year included inter- f raterni ty sports compet i t ion, the Wash ington Day Stag, the Al l -Col lege Sing, the Frater Frolics, the informal Spring Party, and as a g rand f inale, the annual Swan Song, which pa id special tr ibute to the graduat ing members of the Society.

The Fraternal Society this year missed the pres-ence of their gracious housemother, Mrs. Ethel Robertson, who ret i red in the summer of 1955. The absence of her motherly guidance, wonder fu l sense of humor, and pleasant personali ty was indeed a major loss to everyone.

The academic year 1955-56 was both prof i table and illustrious for the men of Cosmopol i tan. Wel l -represented in campus affairs, several Cosmos placed on various al l -M.I .A.A. teams. In intramural sports also, they showed up well , winning the gol f t rophy and ranking high in other competi t ion.

The rushing season was successful, wifh twenty-six new members jo ining the ranks. Cosmopol i tan's winter fo rmal , "Moon l i gh t M inue t " was held in Louis XIV room at the Rowe Hotel in Grand Rapids.

A signif icant accomplishment of the year was the presentat ion of a large map of the wor ld to Graves Library for the benefit of all col lege stu-dents. In February under the direct ion of Neil Petty the men of Cosmopol i tan sang the " N a v y Hymn" in the Al l -Col lege Sing.

Coach Van Ingen

This year's tennis squad faced the big task of equal ing or surpassing its second-place finish in the M. I .A.A. in 1955. Mr. John Van Ingen took over the coaching and rebui ld ing of a team depleted by the loss of four lettermen from last year's squad. John Jeltes, last year's first man, and " T i g e r " Teusink were the nuc-leus of the team.
