Making The Grade: Motivating Factor Or Outmoded Barrier To Academic Achievement?, Jeffrey W. Beebe, Rhette Wieland

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

Education is fast approaching the stage where students are crossing a line between a desire to succeed and the fear of failure. Although UMO tends to shrug off the pressure of grades, many students them of great concern. They gulp their meals and rush to the dorms to study, they toss in bed, losing sleep before tests--if they go to bed at all--and many sweat out every test and grading period as if waiting for the Judgetment. The fear of failure is well hidden in most cases, but there it is.

Gay Group Leader Vows 'Students Will Be Educated', Randy Stevens

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

"We decided that we shall not be ignored any longer. We are going to educate this campus community." These are the words of Karen Bye, a self-avowed lesbian and the major force in forming the Wilde-Stein Club. The club is composed of male and female homosexuals who meet each week to find social and psychological support from each other.

We Are Americans, Not Ethics, Tom Piker

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

The more I read headlines such as "University Termed Insensitive to Franco-Americans" the more disgusted I get. Such gross and all-encompassing statements lead me to feel pity--pity for those who write articles, make unfounded charges, and generalize and discredit our University. To the aforementioned I ask, "What do you want?"

It's The Issue That Counts — It's The Language That Counts, Phil Mace

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

Editorial reaction to language included in the feature story, "Gay Lib. Spokeswoman" which appears in the 1973-04-12 issue of The Maine Campus. There are over 400,000 words in the English language. It is ridiculous to segregate seven, eight, or nine—or even one—of them as totally unsuitable for use in a newspaper. Acting as if certain four-letter words do not exist only adds to the titillating air that surrounds them when they do appear—as they will.

Libby

Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion

On January 17, 1972 an ad hoc committee was appointed to evaluate the special educational needs of women within the University of Maine at Orono/Bangor and in the larger community served by this University. This committee was chaired by Dr. Constance Carlson.

PROBLEM : The intellectual, social and professional climate of the University does not encourage women students (undergraduate, graduate, CED, and special) to realize their full intellectual, social and professional potential.

SOLUTION: The University environment must become a vital catalyst encouraging each woman student to make the most of the educational opportunity and cultural freedom available at Orono/Bangor thereby …

Stewart felt women would improve the atmosphere in the dorms.

Intended as an academic discussion of the social and psychological aspects of homosexuality, the small grou expanded and turned from a discussion to become an active gay social-support group.
