Description | The Scroll newspaper has been in print since 1905, when BYU-Idaho was known as the Ricks Academy, a locally run school with a newly-developed high school program. At the time this newspaper was known as the “Student Rays,” and was printed monthly. In 1933 the name of the newspaper changed to “The Purple Flash.” In 1937 the name was changed again to “Viking Flashes,” and in 1938 the name finally changed to “The Viking Scroll.” The paper continued under this name until 1972, when it changed to “The Scroll.” The Scroll is still in print at BYU-Idaho as its official newspaper. |

Jt There's a ' future' in liberal a r ts Editor's note: This is the first in a series of articles on career choices facing Ricks students. By KALANI CROPPER Scroll Staff Writer Many students today are changing their college majors to fields that exhibit high profits and career prestige, instead of following in areas they are interested or highly talented in. Considering the exorbitant expense of a college education and the present high cost of living, it is of little surprise. A Liberal Arts degree, for instance, can be valuable in today's increasingly corporate America A Liberal Arts education may not seem to cater to the profitable fields of employment in today's work market, such as engineering, computers, science and health fields. The starting salaries for business and professional majors are significantly larger than those with training in the liberal arts. However, the starting salary in an occupation is but one of a number of considerations in choosing a major. Because of the fact that most people will change their profession at least once during their lives, having an extensive knowledge of a limited field can be a disadvantage when trying to find other work. Also, the inevitability of dying positions and career clusters because of technological advancement cannot be positively determined now. Glade Merrill, humanities and French instructor at Ricks, believes there are an infinitely greater number of doors open to the students more broadly educated ( Continued on page 4) Football fans await bowl bid We're No. 1- and no one will argue with Fred Katoa, Viking right tackle, who is getting prepared for Saturday afternoon's showdown with second-place Phoenix College. College leader invited to White House signing Ricks College President Joe J. Christensen was invited by the White House to witness Pres. Reagan's signing of a national anti- drug abuse bill last week. Pres. Christensen received the call from Washington earlier last week inviting him to attend the signing of the $ 1.3 bi- partisan bill. " The bill is an effort on the part of the government to control the trafficking of drugs and to better educate young people to avoid drug abuse and chemical dependency" he said. Present at the signing of the bill were various members of the President's Cabinet, congressmen, educators, religious leaders and members of the press. " The president gave a well-crafted brief speech on the bill and emphasized that it would help conquer one of the top problems in America today" Pres. Christensen said. " He also credited his wife, Nancy, for her efforts in helping fight the drug abuse problem." Pres. Christensen said he was honored to have been invited. " The passing of the bill has a very germane relationship to what we do here at Ricks College and it was appreciated as a member of the LDS Church to be invited since we support this type of legislation." Vikings climb to No. 3 in national poll By MATT PAGE Scroll Sports Editor The Ricks College Vikings football team, with a 8- 0- 1 record, has moved to the No. 3 slot in the National Junior College Athletic Association football poll. This is the highest ranking since 1984, according to sports information director Steve Moser. Tn 1984 the Vikings ended at the No. 6 spot in the poll. In 1982, the Vikings finished the season at 10- 0 and were ranked No. 2 in the nation. - The Vikings also moved up in the Junior College Grid Wire poll, climbing from ninth to seventh. Northeastern Oklahoma retained the No. 1 spot in the AP poll, and Coffeyville, Kan. is at No. 2. Bowl game invitations will be going out this week, and Ricks should be invited to one of the several bowl games around the country. The NJCAA has been promoting the Mid- America Bowl in Tulsa on Dec. 7 as the game to decide the national champion. That's bad news. for Ricks, because the game has been moved to Sunday and Ricks' teams will not participate in Sunday events. The Vikings, who defeated win! ess Eastern Arizona Saturday night, face the No. 10 team, Phoenix, this Saturday. The most likely bowl games for the Vikings are the Jayhawk Classic in Coffeyville, Kansas, Dixie Rotary Bowl in St. George, the Texas Junior College Bowl or the Roaring Ranger Bowl. College officials are weighing the possibilities of all bowl proposals before making firm commitments. Meanwhile, the team's coaches and players aren't looking past Saturday's game. |
