THE GUILFORDIAN
Quakers Fall to Oshkosh in N.A.I.A
The Carolinas Conference Champion
ship for the fiist time in history, the
N.A.I.A. District 26 Championship for
the third consecutive season, and the trip
to Kansas City, Mo., and the National
Championship for the third successive
year a great season for any team
all came to an abrupt end last Tuesday
night in Kansas City's Municipal Aud
itorium as Oshkosh State of Wisconsin,
rallying from early nine and eleven point
deficits, used John Lallensack's last-second
lay-up to defeat Guilford College's num
ber-one seeded Quakers 80-78 in first
round action of the 31st Annual National
Intercollegiate Championship Basketball
Tournament.
Guilford led by All-American Bob
Kauffman surged to an early lead of
13-4 only to see the Ti tans, champions of
the Wisconsin State University Conference,
rally to gain a 16-15 lead before Kauff
man, Ed Fellers, and Bob Bregard scored
for a 26-18 Quaker advantage. At this
point Kauffman was whistled for his
third foul and went to the bench with
8:43 left in the half. Guilford held on to
a substantial margin until the Titan's
Ron Hayek, a 6-3 junior from Milwaukee,
threw in four field goals and Oshkosh
trailed only 45-42 at half-time.
Even with Kauffman back in the line
up in the second half, Guilford could not
break away as the lead changed hands
twelve times before Hayek sank three
foul shots for a 78-75 Oshkosh edge.
Guilford's Bo Whitaker was fouled at-
(Reorint con't)
staff member to free each teacher lor
truly professional duties. How, then, can
he keep abreast of new findings and
new methods in his field, stay in touch
with professional colleagues, or contrib
ute to the growth or reinterpretation of
knowledge? "Keeping up" is, moreover,
a matter of more than specialized com
petence. The students today represent a
mixture of cultures and a breadth of ex
perience in travel, work, and out-of
hours sophistication that make a nar
rowly competent scholar look naive.
SECOND, the learned community has
begun to achieve some solid knowledge
about learning and how it best occurs.
This may appear to be a bold claim but
at least we understand better how to
ask questions about what matters in
learning—about inducing studert moti
vation, organizing available knowledge
for convenient access and effective use,
respecting teachers' individualities and
styles, about the interplay of campus cul
ture and learning, and about the dy
namics of firsthand experience interact
ing with vicarious experience. All of this,
with the emerging revolution in educa
tional technology, means that teaching
as a profession is in for epochal develop
tempting a drive and sank the initial free
throw for 78-76. As Whitaker's second
shot bounced away Pat Moriarty grabbed
it and laid it in for a 78-78 tie. At this
point, Oshkosh called a time-out with
fifteen seconds left on the clock. Lallen
sack, a 6-4 senior who in his career had
won several games previously for the
Totamson last-second leroics, was called
upoo, by Coach Bob White to ta£e the
possible game-winning shot. It wss meant
to be a foul line jump shot but Lallensack
saw an opening down the right side of the
lane and drove through several Quakers
before arching a lay-up high off the
backboard to elude the blocking attempts
of Kauffman. It fell clearly through and
time was out before the charges of
Coach Jerry Steele could call time out.
With the shot went the hopes of the
Quaker faithful who have given their
support all season long to a team that is
and always will be-number one!
Tournament notes: Kauffman's 23
points led Guilford while Fellers had 17,
Bregard 16, and Moriarty 10. Reserve
John Brooks came off the bench to lead
all rebounders in the game with 12.
Hayek led Oshkosh with 27 points - • -
For the second straight year the Quakers
lost to a team which went on to finish
third in the tournament. The Titans from
Wisconsin defeated Eastern Montana and-
Drury of Missouri before losing in the
semi—finals to Fairmount State. Oshkosh
then routed Westminister 102—68 for third
place honors. Last year Central Washing
ton State whipped the Quakers 78—67 en
route to a third place finish
Central State of Ohio (29—4) won this
year's title. The third—seated Maurauders
also won in 1965. Guilford had
19 turnovers in the Oshkosh loss, giving
the Quakers 475 on the year, an average
of over 15 a game
seeded teams (Central State of Ohio,
Westminister, and Central Washington Sta
te) survived the first two rounds of action
Second —Seeded Stephen F. Austin
of Nacogdoches, Texas was upset at the
buzzer on a 40-foot shot by Earle Higgins
of Eastern Michigan University from Ypsi
lanti, Michigan. Eastern Michigan has the
largest N.A.M. enrollment with 12,700
iients.
It is clear that differentiation of func
tions and roles among faculty will shortly
become common. There will be pre
ceptors, lecturers, discussion leaders, pro
grammers, evaluator-examiners, educat
ional technologist, consultants of many
stripes, as well as supporting technic
ians for the subprofessional tasks with
in teaching. The person who sees him
self as an educator, and not simply
as one of this array of specialists in
teaching, will be concerned with com
plex problems of designing environments
and tasks to further learning, enlisti'

improve teaching.
Hazards abound in these new chal
lenges for faculty. Preoccupation with
any one of the growing demands can
lead to neglect or weakness in the others.
Great mobility in the faculty can destroy
the stability of a college, its program,
and its climate for learning. Fads in edu
cational technology may turn a teacher
who did well intuitively into a confused
mentor trying to do well deliberately.
