Tennessee Williams, will be the

for the 1970-71 season. The

Dr. Roger A. Bullard, pro
fessor of religion at Atlantic
Christian College, is author of a
recently published book entitled,
“The Hypostasis of the Ar-
chons.” The book is a translation
and commentary on one of some
40 documents discovered in
Egypt shortly following World
War II.
Translations were made by
Dr. Bullard from photographic
copies of the document origi
nally written in Coptic on
papyrus. Coptic was the lan
guage spoken in Egypt about the
time of Christ. The works were
written by Gnostics, a religious
group with affinities with
Judaism, Christianity and other
eastern religions.
“The Hypostasis of the Ar-
chons” is essentially a re-telling
of the creation story in the book
of Genesis from the Gnostic
point of view. Ironically, the
snake in the Garden of Eden was
the hero...
Due to political developments
in the Middle East since World
War II, very few of the docu
ments have been released by the
Egyptian government. Dr.
Bullard’s translation from the

motion requesting liberalization

motion would have lifted this
restriction with the stipulation

Since so many students
seemed to be classified rioters
and destroyers of today’s
society, it is interesting to see
what persons college students
admired the most. From the
interviewing Atlantic Christian
College students, not one person
admired someone that strived
only for money and self gain.
They all seemed to admire
someone that wants peace, unity
and betterment in the world.
A.M.O., junior female: “Now,
I admire the Kennedy brothers.
At the time they were living, I
didn’t realize it but it is true that
they were trying to get more for
the people. As for the present, I
admire people who are
struggling alot for peace.”
