Show Associated Women Students held their first seminar on the controversial subject of abortion. Various community leaders and groups were represented on the panel, including the state legislature, Attorney General's office, the Ogden Jewish community and Planned Parenthood. Many members of the audience were drawn into a heated discussion by comments of the panelists. Opinions aired on the subject were very diverse. AWS also sponsored a week of activities for married students. The theme of the November 12-16 events was "Families are Fun" and most of the activities were geared for family entertainment. A panel discussion on "Parenting" and a Reader's Theater on the subject, I'M OK YOU'RE OK (a book by Dr. Thomas Harris) were among events in the first part of the week. On Thursday, November 15, a Walt Disney movie "Bednobs and Broomsticks" was shown with small children especially in mind. A symphony concert and an Italian dinner in the Skyroom completed the week's activities on Friday night.
