MoodatSSC The Changing 1 ll Officials tried to figure out a 1 way to place a residence camp on campus, but found the costs of providing water and sanitation facilities made it impractical. Again this year, many students are participating in the Community Involvement Project providing volunteer help In a variety of programs. Underprivileged and a 1-capped children, drug abuse counseling centers, mental health clinics, and hospitals are among those who benefit. Others are Involved in environmental projects, but again the political action is low key. One political science professor, himself a former activist, described the political life on campus as "almost moribund." The sound you hear is college officials knocking on wood.

feud between the athletic department and other elements 00 campus is at least quiet now. A two-hour and IS minute Moratorium Against the War, scheduled for yesterday received little attention. Eighteen months ago, classes were cancelled for four days and 2,000 students filled the gym following Kent State and the Cambodian incursion. Most of the 5,000 students have turned inward. There are committees organizing housing and food co-operatives.

Housing remains a major student problem. Dormitories on campus are under construction. In the interim, college officials have provided benign neglect to an illegal camp of buses, vans, trailers and cars that has sprung up across East Cotati ave. gion, classical music programs, counseling of all kinds, poetry reading, classes In karate and modern dance, drama. A vendor hawks organic foods on the front steps of the student Commons.

But there is a low profile. If you ask them, most students still say that they don't like Ronald Reagan or Richard Nixon, but they're not going to beat their chests about it.

Protest is no longer the style. For the second year, there is no student government. Even attendance at football games appears to be on the increase and the long standing By PETE GOUS ROHNERT PARK Sonoma State College once feared by neighbors as the seedbed for all kinds of political activity is passing its days In pleasant seclusion. In the fall of 1971, It is poetry, not Vietnam; classic films, not Angela Davis, that are parts of the students' extra-curricular interests. The signs of the new lifestyle are everywhere.

Virtually every student affects the casual fashion of the alternate culture. They pass leisurely through the expanses of green grass and trees on these pleasant autumn days. Kiosks announce an endless agenda of cultural events: film series, benefit rock concerts, transcendental meditaton, yoga, folk dancing, seminars on reli Photo by Jot Pric Jr. THE LOOK OF TRANQUILITY Showers?
