DECEMBER 8, 1976 THE TWIG PAGE 3 Sandwich seminars spark noonday talks by Kristy Beattie “One of the things that I enjoy about the acadmmic community is the chance to talk about ideas and it’s fun to do it outside the classroom.” Others must have echoed Dr. Jack Huber’s comment, and for this reason, sandwich seminars were begun. Held each Friday at noon, the sandwich seminars give in terested persons a chance to talk about various ideas stimulated by common readings. Getting together and talking about ideas is sometWng that everyone likes to do. Dr. Huber states, but also, something that they do not get to do often enough. So, he continues, when you like to do something, you should make an opportunity to do it. He recalls that the first place he ever taught he and a colleague would read different things and then get together on Friday afternoons to discuss them and share ideas. On this thought, the sandwich seminars were begun. To keep the seminars from becoming dry, a stimulous was provided in the form of a list of short articles from various professional journals that would be of general interest. The readings are then discussed informaUy over lunch in the president’s dining hall, where the wedcly seminars are held. Although invitational information was sent to all the faculty members and all the students majoring in psychology. Dr. Huber cites that it was an interesting group that became faithful seminar attenders. As he puts it, “most of us have seen our 29th birthday more than on ce.” The small group of eight, most of whom are day students, enjoyed the seminars to such an extent that even though the planned program was completed, they are meeting again in hopes of continuing their get-togethers.
