Mystique or Murphy's LawByB.F.PeaDragoo

For a week now we, as new students, have been aimlessly wandering the Ivy halls of ThmderMfd, blatantly clut­ ching our manila folders like some sort of graduate level teddy-bears. The physical signs are manifested by con­ fused saring, grimly ot'tyrmfo^l sets of the jaw and poppy-like responses to all friendly overtures.

Fortunately, the dost is beginning to settle and the hum of campus life is ex­ panding with a universal sigh or groan o>f*n<ting opon whether otr not you nave fallen prey to mystic or Mnrphy's law. As with any new situation, however, there is a certain amount of

translation that is necessary before one can understand the language of the natives. For most of us the orientation dialogue has been according to Mur­ phy, and goes something like this:

Mystique "Welcome to AGSIM," ttorpny's translation: "The only line you won't have to spend half a day in not getting what you need is financial registration. (STAMP) Thank you very much."

Mystique: "It may be necessary for some students to live off campus." Murphy's translation:" If you're lucky.

five of you can afford to sleep on the floor of a new bouse in an unfinished subdivision. Furnished means carpet included and roof is optional. Welcome to Housing, dose."

"WHAT IS YOUR NAME?!

In search of Hie TBunder- bird mystique. I found myself enrolling in classes at AGSIM last Fall.

Duly impressed with my Lloyd's of London student in­ surance, and after star-gazing at the Hollywood photo of President Voris in my school bulletin, I set off for the new students' party at Dr. Voris'

tome, toe <toor a long MM of students watted to be greeted by the school's star.

As I moved up to line I felt like a last minute participant on "What's My Line." Vorts' password into the party seem­ ed to be a phrase, which, after muddling through years of forced French awl two weeks of Spanish, nay cohorts and I deciphered as "<pe Lodge."

Campus Notes

Editor's BoxIt is very easy to ignore the

fact that racism is still ram­ pant in American society AGSIM students are isolated ta their international environ­ ment; we are accustomed to interacting with peoples of dif­ ferent races, religions and lifestyles and are too often forgetful of the underlying at­ titudes of racism and hatred which exist in our society.

The sad reality of American racism was enunciated close to borne last week by Rep. James RaUiff, R-Sun City, Arizona. Ratliff, after voting in favor of a constitutional am - mendment banning abortion, told Phoenix radio station KMCR that abortions were on­ ly acceptable to him "in case a

RaUiff would not support abortion if a white man raped a white woman. "It makes a hell of a difference," be said. When Ratliff was asked if be considered himself a bigot, be replied, "No, I don't think so."

The issue fww is no( abor­ tion or rape. The issue is that an elected official, a represen­ tative of the state govern­ ment, can bold clearly racist views and not be able to see himself as a racist.

RaUiffs remarks can serve to remind us of something that we should never forget: the prevalence of prejudice in our society. We must not let ourselves wear the blinders of

The tiro conditioning hikes are scheduled for Sunday, February 1, to Squaw Peak; and Saturday, February 14, to the Superstition Mountains southeast of Phoenix. The first hike will take only a couple of hours; the second will be a day­ long trip including lunch. The cost for both is included to tne cost of the trip.

Hikers should obtain proper shoes and begin to break them in immediately. It is recom­ mended that considerable walking be done on steep slopes to build up the calf muscles. A good alternative is to climb stairs or Weathers several times daily. Or. Gulick made the hike into and back out of the canyon in one day! He may be consulted on its difficulties.

No backpacks wfll be need­ ed on the F.O.T. hike. However, if you so desire, you may ride a mule to the canyon bottom and back at an extra charge of-60.

Refunds wfll be made ta cases of emergency or within one week after sign up.

This semester your Om­ budsman, Donna DiFeBce, may be contacted informally at any time through Box 424 or reached at the ASLC office Tuesdays and Fridays, 34 p.m.

AGSIM PARKINGByDomaM.DtFeMce

AGSIM is faced with the dai­ ly problem of providing park­ ing for the large number of students, faculty, staff and visitors on campus.

Rwrty, staff and student body who operates or parks a motor vehicle on campus must register his/her vehicle with Security (free of charge) and display on the vehicle a cur­ rent parking permit Failure to register a motor vehicle subjects tne operator to a $3.00 fine.

Your vebkle is your respon­ sibility and must be operated within the regulations established by Security. A copy of parking and traffic regulations, revised in December 1980, is available in the Security and Traffic Dept. office. Owners and operators are answerable for citations issued against a vehicle for violations of these regulations and failure to familiarize

oneself with them does not remove this responsibility.

There is ample parking space on campus, particularly on the outer perimeter of the new building, around East and West apartments, by the library «except where reserv­ ed), and east of the Bookstore and Post Office. The parking hanger is reserved for students who have paid the fee of $20 per semester.

All parking space reserved for faculty and staff is off limits to students. There is no parking in any space painted yellow. The Administration Bldg. parking lot is off limits to all students 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, without excep­ tion.

Please note that the speed limit on campus is IS mph. This is for the safety of everyone. Operators of motor vehicles are expected to com­ ply with posted traffic signs just as they should off cam­ pus.

Also, please avoid receiving

citations for parking on grass. If it so much as looks like it's trying to grow, don't risk a costly citation. Remember you're in Arizona now. Grass is rarely the green you may be used to.

Individual parking and mov­ ing violations range from $3-5 each. Students may appeal citations to the ASLC Om­ budsman, Donna DiFelice, by filling out an appeal form

which may be obtained in the ASLC office (please attach a copy of your citation). Traffic citations and parking fines are paid at the Business Office. Ali citations not paid within 14 days are assessed a $2 late charge. Students considering appeal must do so within a week of receipt of the citation.

The Security and Traffic Dept. enforces traffic and parking regulations for a pur­ pose. Despite grumblings to

the contrary, they are not out to slap tow-income students with expensive fines. They want to see that this campus and the people on it are pro­ tected from careless in­ dividuals who don't realize the consequences of their ir­ responsible actions as well as ensure that the campus may continue to accomodate the large number of motor vehicle operators present each semester.

AGSIM: Unique B-School?by Elizabeth M. Fowler The New York Time*

THUNDERBIRD. it Is a bird, it is a plane, is it a car? Yes, all three, but it is also a graduate school of interna­ tional management that gives a degree called master of in­ ternational management. Each year the school graduates about 1,000 men and women, who call themselves Thunderbirds, for the thunder- bird is the school's logo and its nickname.

The American Graduate School of International Management is its official name. The school, whose cam­ pus once was Thunderbird Field No. 1, a deactivated pilot-training center in Glen- dale, Ariz., began as a non­ profit operation in 1946.

Its founder, the late Lieut. Gen. Barton Kyle Yount, had been head of the Army Air Force Training Command in World War II. He and some associates foresaw a growing need for good international management training at a time when the behavior of American businessmen abroad had come under criticism. Since 1963 the American Management Associations bad acted as the hands-off parent of the school. A few weeks ago, Tbunderbird graduated 375 men and women in its spring semesters. Tne school year has three semesters, and

therefore three graduating classes. Study for the degree requires three semesters or even a year and a haK, depen­ ding on the student's background.

Or. William Voris, presi­ dent, said in a telephone inter­ view that at least 45 percent of the graduates bad jobs waiting at the time they received diplomas last month, and that up to 80 percent tradi­ tionally have jobs five or six weeks after graduation.

"We have alumni in 3,200 companies" he said, listing such organizations as the Chase Manhattan Bank, Bank of America and Chemical Bank, all of which have large international operations, as well as the Internationa] Business Machines Corpora­ tion the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company, the Ford Motor Company, the Cater­ pillar Tractor Company, the Continental Grain Company, to name a few.

While a few companies finance employees attending the school, most students take leaves of absence without pay from their companies. However, there are fellowships underwritten by companies that traditionally hire Tnunderbirds, such as I.B.M. and Continental Gram.

One unusual strength in an era of growing interna­ tionalism is Thunderbird's stiff language, requirement. It stresses conversational skill

and ability to negotiate in a language, which might range from Arabic to PortaguM* The language requirement oc- cupies about one-third of the student's time. Oddly enough, few graduate schools of business have a language re-

Spanish continues to be the most popular at Thunderbird, according to Or. Voris, who added, "Interest is very strong now in Mandarin Chinese." In fact, the school plans an exchange program with the Chinese Government.

Students also spend a large amount of time on courses related to the culture, economics and history of the area that their language ma­ jor embraces.

The third division in the course requirements centers on basic courses that most students for a master of business administration degree take the first year - ac­ counting, marketing, economics, management, statistics. In addition, Tbunderbirds take at least 12 semester hours in advanced courses.

Dr. Voris says frankly, ; "When you come to a school like this you sacrifice the

.depth in regular business ad­ ministration programs for breadth in international studies, language and 'business." By Mn»t he m*a»»s that, because of the stress on
