What It's Like
Graduate A
Lead! DoubS
"Placed in between the stu
dents and faculty with feelings
and work of both" that's
what it's like to be a grad
uate student assistant, accord
ing to Norm Rosenberg.
Rosenberg is a graduate
student in history who directs
three quiz sections for Dr.
David Trask's History 91
course. Like all graduate as
sistants, he also attends at
least one class and several
seminars a week himself.
"A graduate assistant cer
tainly is not really a member
of the faculty and he's re
moved from the undergrad
uatesit's definitely a sort of
an in-between type of thing,"
he said.
He explained that the only
thing many graduate stu
dents ever have time to do
that the undergraduates also
take part in is football games
and drinking. More work and
consumed time are the!
things Rosenberg named as
making a graduate student as
sistant most different from an
undergraduate.
"The thing that surprised
me the most about being a
graduate student and assistant
is that it takes a great deal
more time and work than be-

ing an undergraduate," he
said.
Rosenberg noted that grad
uate assistants have to attend
their own classes and semi
nars as well as study and pre
pare for quiz sections they
teach themselves.
"We're expected to s p e n d
about twelve hours a week as
assistants and often spend a
lot more," he said. He ex
plained that for his three quiz
sections he has to prepare dis
cussions, read the material
carefully, grade papers, make
up quizzes and attend the lec
tures. Rosenberg said that his own
graduate courses concern ma
terial similar to that studied
by his students so that he can
apply some of the information
he learns in graduate semi
nars to the quiz sections.
"A graduate assistant might
try and direct a quiz section
with only his own back
ground in the subject but the
Booth Refutes Abbott
Statement At YD's
A statement made at last
week's Ifrde Park forum by
Steve Abbott, editor of the
campus literary magazine,
Scrip, was the object of an
attack by Young Democrats
president, Thomas Booth.
At a meeting of the Young
Democrats last night, Booth
refuted Abbott's conten
tion that the political parties
on campus should work to im
prove the campus. He s a i d ,
"The purpose of Young Demo
crats is not to improve the
campus, it is to draw atten
tion to statewide and nation
wide issues."
Booth said that if the young
Democrats would concentrate
on campus improvement,
there would be no organ-

"Who's Afraid of Virginia
Woolf ' opens its second week
end of the repertory season

with "a great deal of interest
aroused in the play," accord
ing to Rich Maulsby.
Maulsby, publicity director
for Howell Theatre, said that
a letter had been received
from a couple who attended
the play the first night. They
said that they left "shocked
and disgusted by the language
of the play."
They added that "the Uni
versity might do well to cen
sor some of their plays."
Malusby said that tickets
are still available for the
weekend performances, but
that ticket sales were "brisk."
He advised people to make
reservations as soon as pos
sible. Maulsby said that "Mac
Beth" is sold out for the rest
of the season.

sharp students will soon notice
his laziness and it really is es
sential that an assistant read
the material his students have
to read," he said. "This Is
necessary if you are going to
know the material better than
the students and to lead
them in discussion," he added.
He explained hat probably
one of the biggest adjustments
or things a graduate assistant
needs to learn is how to deal
with the students, how to com
municate with them and how
to act in the role of a teacher.
Rosenberg pointed out that
he and the other history grad
uate assistants under Trask
meet together with Trask
every week and discuss the
next week's quiz section.
"Trask helps us decide how
we should attack the next
week's discussion," he said.
Another thing he said every
assistant probably has to learn
to do is "to fail" students
when their work is of low
quality.
"It's often hard for me to
look at a paper or test and
say this isn't acceptable
work," he said. He also ex
plained that it was hard to
get use to grading many dif
ferent students' essay exams.
Almost the only possible
way that a person can really
grade essay exams, he said,
is to read all the papers over
first and then devide them in
to piles with the better papers
first. This way papers can be
balanced off against each oth
er in order to get fair grades.
After Rosenberg receives
his masters degree, he said
he plans to attend another
school for his doctorate. He
wants to continue his role as
a university history teacher
in a "nice, small town with a
warm climate."

Exhibits
To Talk
"Talking labels" are being
installed for the exhibits at
the University State Museum
in Morrill hall.
The new sound system, al
ready completed on the lower
floor of the museum and cur
rently being installed on the
main floor, provides authori
tative information about the
more important exhibits at
both elementary and adult
levels.
Individual earphones can
be plugged into a box near
the exhibit and a push of a
button (tarts the commentary.
According to Dr. C. Ber
trand Schulz, director of the
museum, there are about 250
of the individual speakers.
In addition, there are about
20 loudspeakers for use by
school groups.
Schulz said that there are
49 different stations, many of I
which cover more than one
exhibit. The taped recordings
last about a minute and 90
seconds.
The sound system and i t s
free use by school groups was
made possible, according to
Schulz, by a gift from Mr. and
Mrs. George Lincoln of Lin
coln. The museum also has ac
quired an audio-visual projec
tor as a gift from Mr. and
Mrs. William Norris of Min
neapolis, Minn., former stu
dents at the University.
The projector, resembling a
television set, shows about 48 j
slides in a 10 minute presents- j
tion.
Schulz said the projector
will be used to "introduce new
and special exhibits." The pro
jector can be moved around
and can be used for other ex
hibits. The projector is currently
showing the story of the 41
foot plesiosaur, discovered
near Valparaiso in the spring
of 1964 and recently added to
the museum's fossil exhibits.
