Scientists and engineers at the University of Notre Dame will test and
evaluate possible methods of reducing pollution in Stone Lake near Cassopolis, Mich, under a $46,335 grant from the Environmental Protection Agency*
Dr* Mark W* Tenney, associate professor of civil engineering, explained
that the group of five researchers has been studying Stone Lake since 1966, when the town removed a sewage plant which had been polluting the lake. The
team found that the small lake, which has no distinct inflows other than rain
and no outflow but seepage, has not improved in the five
years since the plant was removed* : -
Tenney and his associates now intend to investigate what man can do to
reverse the damage done to the lake* They will set up plastic-enclosed
•’columns*1 in the lake to serve as laboratories to study the effects of
various treatment combinations and concentrations on the polluted water.In particular, Tenney explained, they wish to study the effects of alum, lime
and fly ash* Fly ash, a common air pollutant produced from burning coal, is a cheap source of lime and also contains carbon which can absorb many
organic pollutants. The ash also forms a sort of **seal** over the bottom muds, preventing re-pollution from this source. All three chemicals remove
phosphates, which trigger excessive algae growths in the lake.
The researchers include Tenney, Dr. Wayne F* Echelherger, associate professor of civil engineering, Dr. Philip Singer, assistant professor of
civil engineering, Dr. Francis H. Verhoff, assistant engineering and Dr. Thomas C. Griffing, assistant

of chemical of biology *
Stone Lake projects # * 2
Verhoff is developing a computer program describing the lake, which the group can use to predict the course of pollution under various treatments • The
"model," or computer simulation, includes information about the chemical, physical and biological characteristics of the lake*
Tenney hopes the research will "accelerate the return of human uses to existing lakes which are seriously polluted."

For Immediate Release:
Despite the declining job market, less than 10 per cent of the
graduating class at the University of Notre Dame remains uncommitted to
future plans, according to Richard D. Willemin, director of thePlacement Bureau.
Willemin also reported that many businesses and industries are now
seeking applicants, even though students have left the campus. They
apparently have come to believe that the economic situation is improving,
while many were less optimistic about business growth earlier in the year.
He also pointed out that the draft has a real effect on employment
statistics, as many companies prefer not to hire draft-age young men*
However, he added, Notre Dame graduates have done much better on the
whole than graduates of many other colleges in the area.
In a summary of the graduating class, Willemin found that 4-3 per cent
of the seniors will be going on to graduate, law or medical school. Another
27 per cent will be entering the military, the Peace Corps, or Vista,
leaving about 30 per cent starting careers *Graduates of the College of Business commanded istarting salaries
as high as science graduates, with accounting, management and marketing majors leading in salary offers. The average starting salary in business
was $9,950, while the science majors received from $7,000 to $10,000 starting salaries.
Arts and Letters students received an average of $8,033 8tartingsalary, with government and economies majors leading the sociology and English majors.

Notre Dame 9 Ind* — - Liturgy is not merely a structure of ceremonies in
which prayer may occur but is a form of prayer itself $ Rev, Aidan Kavanagh *
O.S.B*, directory of liturgical studies at the University of Notre Dame,
told a conference Monday (June 7)*
Giving the opening address to a four-day meeting on the liturgy, Father
Kavanagh defined liturgy as "the community of faith as such engaged in asking
God for happiness, for Himself, in public through the poetic media of words
gestures and actions woven together within contexts that are symbolic*"
The liturgist said he was prepared to listen to a variety of persons—
including St. Augustine, Father Daniel Berrigan and Bishop James Walsh--on
prayer "because these people at least know from their own experience
something of what it costs ?to behold the fair beauty of the Lord.1 But I
am not prepared to hear on this matter ex-priests who are stockbrokers or
nuns who paint their "toenails. Even less am I prepared to listen on the
point of prayer to those who insist that it is merely 1 self-knowledge1 or to
those who in their unprofitable * exuberance cannot distinguish liturgy from
life,"
Father Kavanagh said the length of verbal prayers should be short, and
cited the Our Father. "The Our Father is * in fact, the complete distillation
of all the Psalms and prayers found in the wisdom literature," the priest
added, "Any prayer that cannot be referred back to one of the Our Father’sseven petitions is of the flesh, profits nothing, leads one astray from radical happiness, and is an example therefore of precisely how not to pray*"

across the country will begin a two-week summer institute Tuesday (June 15) on
the University of Notre Dame campus, so-sponsored by Notre Dame1 s department of theology and the Boston Theological Institute (BTI) •
The Institute is the first of three planned under a $50,000 grant from ' the Lilly Endowment, Inc., of Indianapolis, Ind., and is just one facet of a
nationwide trend toward providing prospective priests and ministers with real-life training in addition to lectures in seminary classrooms*
Dr. Tjaard Hommes, an ordained United Church of Christ member who heads Notre Dame's pastoral theology effort and is Institute co-director, said field
education, which used to be a poor stepchild of the seminary curriculum, come into its own in an era of sophisticated ministries, social action
z
involvement and increasing contact between clergymen and professionals of
The Notre Dame-BTl Institutes will integrate academic theological reflection with actual or simulated situations of contemporary
ministry. Lectures and seminars will be balanced by workshops, which may involve either participation in community projects or classroom simulations, such as role-playing, socio-drama and group dynamics analysis.
This year's registration was cut off at 24, and applications are already
being processed for the 1972 Institute at BTI. Rev. Richard T, Cleazy, S.J., director of field education at BTI, is co-director with Hommes.

Notre Dame, Ind. -- While most educational experimentators have been concentrating on such things as curriculum, scheduling and architecture, University of Notre Dame group has focused on what they consider to be the
most important element of education — the teacher.
"Aurora," the name of a pilot program in Catholic education being conducted by Notre Dame at Marian High School in nearby Mishawaka, Ind., is putting to the test the thesis of several recent education observers that educational reform has at least as much to do with the imagination and feelings of teachers as it lias; to "do with modular scheduling or revised textbooks.
Heading "Aurora" is Brother Anthony J« ipsaro, a Marianist who is an assistant professor in Notre Dame *s department of graduate studies in education and former superintendent of archdiocesan schools in Baltimore,
Md. He emphasizes that the project is about people, not programs. "Many
attempts at innovative educational approaches have failed simply because
they were imposed from without by 'experts' and the very people who were supposed to implement them -- the faculty were not convinced of their
effectiveness" he said.The principal support of the program is an $84,000 grant from the
Prank J. Lewis Foundation of Chicago. Notre Dame's president, the Rev. Theodore M. Hesburgh, C,8,(3 *, praised the foundation for "underwriting a creative attempt to contribute to the solution of one of the Church's
aurora,,*2Taxing problems: bow to educate Christians in a contemporary context.11 The Lewis Foundation has a long history of 'benefactions to Notre Dame, including Lewis Hall, a campus residence for nuns and laywomen pursuing graduate studies, and support of a new doctoral program in pastoral theology.
Since last fall, Brother Ipsaro and his colleagues, a group of counseling psychologists and educational researchers, have been working with the faculty of Marian High School to bring them to a level of "personal awareness11 which would constitute the initial step toward the kind of quality education within a persoualistic environment which "Aurora11 proponents feel is the real key to contemporary learning.
At the heart of the program !s work with Marian1s faculty have been small and large group interactions with the faculty and staff members under the direction of trained facilitators from Notre Dame, buttressed by an on-the-scene consultant to the faculty. In addition, there is a systematic program of classroom observation. Teachers are free to accept or reject uhe feedback of observers, who often comment on the extent to which classroom behavior matches the intent of the teacher.
Results of the faculty-staff program at Marian are being carefully charted and evaluated Tsar Notre Dame * s experienced Office for Educational Researoh, which is comparing data with that obtained from a "control school," St* Joseph High School in South Bend, which does not have a similar in-service effort. Initial results substantitate the "faculty unfreezing" goals of the Marian program, according to Brother Anthony, but "Aurora" researchers are reluctant to comment further for fear of "polluting" future research.
While"Aurora" was conceived as an experimental program which might have something to contribute to the revitalization of a sagging Catholic school system, Brother Anthony does not feel its value is limited to private education. "We started with Catholic education because what we are doing is really a new approach to the old philosophy of * educating the whole man, * " he said. "But the process
-more-
aurora#.#3we are developing has ' implications for the whole American educational system.For example, our ideas dovetail with the recommendations of Charles F# Silberman in his recent best-seller, *Crisis in the Classroom#1 The basic difference between the joyless and the joyful classroom is the teacher seen as an adult model for learning interest, emotional growth, psychological development and religious motivation."
IThile continuing the program at Marian -- where the group hopes for a four- year period in which to fully test the approach -- "Aurora” has enlisted a Baltimore Catholic high school as its second research environment, and its "control" school will be a private school without religious sponsorship#
The rationale and practical approach of "Aurora” will get its first outside exposure this summer in a two-week "laboratory experience" the program is sponsoring for educators, starting July 3 at Notre Dame.
