An Open Door
We learned some facts at the Fall meeting of the
North State (’onference Press Association we think we
should j)ut out here to indicate the kind of college we real
ly have.
A lot of editors of other papers in the conference were
startled when they found out we are on speaking terms
with the college president. All of them said they very sel
dom had an opportunity to visit the president to inter
view him about matters of student interest. It is well to
note here that one of our reporters visits Dr. Wenger at
10 a.m. each Friday and as Jim Bishop puts it, “I have all
the time I want to a.sk all the que.stions I want and 1 get
all the answers 1 go in for.”
Several of the editors also were surprised that we
have a good situation as far as getting* the news from oth
er administrators and faculty members. We were quick to
point out that the Dean’s office and all the other admin-
i.strative offices are open to our reporters as well as fa
culty offices.
Wi? even learned that some papers were having troub
le sitting in on .student government meetings. Thi.s, we
think, is a terriblo situation and we told them .so. A .stu
dent governmi'nt or an association as we have at ACC, is
solely for the imi)rovement of the campu.s-at-large. It
should be open to all media po.sses.sing student reader in
terest. ,\o student government .should be controlled by in
dividual suidents, individual faculty members, individual
admini^^tratuvs, or individual unythings. |
It is comfo'ting I0 us to learn that we have a pretty j
good a: •^(•i.ttion he.j-e on our campus as the newspaper is j
coiic.Tiud. ^\'e ho])e we c\n continue to merit such good
will. (.’oiiperatton is nocessary if any publication is to be of
such (luaiity that it draws readers. We have gotten that
coopcM’ation and we appreciate it.

“Religion has much to learn from music, for religion
deals with life, and mu.sic is the most perfect symbol 01
life.” The author of mu.sic i.s God and not man.
God planned all perfect combinations and laid the
keynote of all harmonies. He made us so that we could
hear and understand. We worship the Author of music
with pi-ayer and also with singing. Singing instills a spirit
of enthusiasm in a group. It permits giving back to God in
prai.se that which has been received by prayer, sermons
and meditations. Thus singing is worship, for worship is
active participation of individuals.
Mu.sc can be expre.s.sed joy, a thi’ill not the be des
cribed in mere word.s. With songs are shared basic human
qualities of searching for better understanding of the Di
vine Law which shapes the de.stinies of men. It is some
thing inherent in all great works of art.
Mu.sic can be expressed jcfy, a thrill not to be des-
tween God and man. An enduring faith in the Father of all
people is .strengthened by the most perfect symbol of life,
mu.sic.

with the layout on that page but
we want to improve the stories,”
Miss Ferrell said. “We hope to get
together with the writers from the
Greek letter groups in an attempt
to improve their stories.” “Much
of our problem on that page is the
fact that writers for the Greek let
ter groups get their stories ic late
and the staff of the paper does
iiot have time to rewrite them."
“We hope we can continue to im
prove the paper,” Miss Rivenbark
said. “With the fine spirit cf co

There h;is l)e;‘n si>me .sentiment on the part (.f day .stu

lounge ar.d ;'.udio-visual .^set-up in the college library.
I>('caus<' Ilf t i>e cha::'C',' that i.s taking place, the lounges
in the library for men and women have been temporarily
clo.sed.
Plans call for the present men’s lounge to be convert
ed into a large li.'^tening room for audio-visual purpo.ses.
What is now the women’s lounge will be u.sed as an audio
visual office and storage area. From this office will be is
sued all audio-visual equipment in the future.
The pre.sent audio-visual listening room is to be con
verted into a men’s lounge. A .storage room adjacent to
the i)re.sent women’s lounge will be converted into a wo
men’s lounge.
These new lounges will not be as large as the pre.sent
ones and wo agree that the sentiment expressed by some
day students has morit. However, the change, brought
about by the recommendations of a committee composed
of the college librarian, the college Dean and the As.si.stant
Dean, was made to provide all .students with a better co
ordinated audio-vi.sual education program.
We also understand that some older day students do
not like to visit the Bohunk. However, the Bohunk is a
rather nice place to spend free hours.
We checked on the lounge situation. The new lounges 1
will bo upon in a few days. We regret they are .smaller than I
the present ones. We hope that college officials can come | _______
