Guest
Lecturer
By RAY GRIFFIN
The Adler Deutsch Club
played host to Volker Koenig of
West Germany on Monday, Sept.
18. Koenig is from the Swabian
region of Southern Germany. He
is touring the U.S. and will
remain here until early October.
Koenig spoke primarily of the
similarities and differences of
American and German
societies. For instance, Koenig
stated American college
students dress more con
servatively than do their Ger
man counterparts. Varous other
topics such as politics,
geography and society in
general were discussed.
Koenig will be in Florida for
the next week. After his visit
in Florida, he will return to
Wilson. On Oct. 4, the German
Club will give Koenig a going
away party American style.
Loenig is certainly an in
teresting man to speak with and
the German Club has assuredly
benefited from his visit.

Students Bid For Officers
By LLOYD BRLNSON
As a student at Atlantic
Christian, 1 see the many good
points about this school that
elevate it above other
educational institutions in this
state. 1 also see the points where
A.C.C. lags behind. Rather than
accentuate the positive areas of
ACC, let us discuss the areas
that need change.
As a candidate for freshman
senator, my primary concern is
the problems of the students
entering college this year.
The first of these problems is
the rule against freshmen
having cars on campus. I expect
that there are other reasons for
this rule than the lack of lack of
parking. Whether the rule
against freshmen having cars is
meant as a control of morals or
as a device for the absorption of
students into campus life is
irrelevant. The fact is that the
rule against freshmen cars is not
only an annoyance but also a
human issue when it comes to
some students, away from
home, cannot return for lack of
transportation. A new student’s
first impression of ACC should
not be that of a prison.
As to the question of parking,
which is an issue to all students
as well as freshmen, (as anyone
who has had to park a half-mile
from campus can testify). I
propose not only the addition of
more parking lots, but better use
of the present ones where cars
are parked far enough apart that
a few more feet could
accommodate another car. The
parking at ACC must be
improved.
Another point I would like to
Holshouser Expected At ACC
By JOE RAMSEY
Jim Holshouser, the G.O.P.
Gubernatorial candidate for
Governor of North Carolina, will
appear at Atlantic Christian
College. He will arrive Monday,
September 25, at 5:15 p.m. to eat
supper and talk with students in
the cafeteria.
During the hour Mr. Hols
houser is here, students are
encouraged to express their
opinions and ask questions
which they feel are important to
them. Since this is the first time
many students will be voting,
Jim Holshouser is concerned
with student problems.
Problems which include drugs,
education, better roads, taxes,
and jobs.
Jim Holshouser, being only 37-
years old, knows the problems of
college graduates trying to get a
job. He is also troubled that
North Carolina has one-of-the-
lowest pay scales for teachers in
the nation.
Mr. Holshouser is an experi
enced politician with eight years
in the North Carolina House of
Representatives and six years
as Republican State Chairman.
make a stand for is changing the
curfew to a later time. I feel that
students with the intelligence to
enter college are well able to
control themselves. The present
rewarding. Representing
people, namely the freshman
students of Atlantic Christian
College, is a challenge. I,
Heather Jordan, would enjoy
accepting the responsibility of
such a challenge by being
elected as your Senator.
My name is Danny Wilkins
and I am a candidate for
President of the F'reshman
Class.
I feel that I could represent my
fellow students fairly. I know

curfew is infantile in that a
student can serve in the armed
forces and can help select the
leaders of a nation, but must be
in by a certain time.
Student responsibilities extend
into the classroom. 1 feel that
class cuts help academically
instead of retard. The time
spent in a class that is easy to a
student could be better used
preparing for a more difficult
class. Again, students could
have the opportunity to decide
for themselves.
WITH THESE PROBLEMS,
LIFE AT ACC is tough on all
students, but especially on
freshmen, who must make the
transition from home to campus.
I believe that as senator I can
make the transition easier for all
freshmen. Thank you.

Nick Visits
ACC
By RAY (iRlFFIN
Nick Galifianakis brought his
senatorial campaign to Atlantic
Christian and Wilson Monday.
He defeated incumbent B.
Everett Jordan in the May
primary and is now facing a
hard campaign against GOP
candidate Jesse Helms.
Galifianakis first visited the
ACC cafeteria to meet and visit
with students. Later that
evening he spoke to students and
adults at the First Citizens Bank
building.
The candidate mentioned
several major issues but con
centrated on tax reform,
agricultural reforms, pollution
control and drug abuse.
Galifianakis seeks the positive
solution to the various problems
facing the nation. He sees the
needs and pushes forward with
vigor to find solutions for them.
Students who are interested in
working for the election of
Galifianakis to U.S. Senate

how the students feel that have
never held an office because 1
never have. I also believe
honesty is the best policy. I have
had no formal experience but I
will work hard and do my best.
I feel that no matter who is
elected for office, student
government has no power unless
backed by the students. I also
feel that if there is apathy
among the students it will be
carried over into the student
government.
I know I won’t be able to
please everyone so I will work
for the opinions of the majority
of the students. I believe
everyone is entitled to their own
opinions.
Some of the things I would
personally like to see happen
here at Atlantic Christian are
listed below.
1—Stuent evaluations of the
professors
2—Unlimited hours for women
3—Unlimited class cuts
4—One pass fail course per
student per semester
5—One student representative
on the Administrative Board
6—Voting power given to the
student representative on the
Board of Trustees.
These are the expectations I
hope to obtain for my fellow
students. I would appreciate
your support.

1 believe that Atlantic
Christian College is basically
O.K. However, I do believe that
there are some changes needed,
such as visitation rights in the
dorms and equal rights and
responsibilities for women. As it
stands now, these are my two
main complaints against the

President and there are three in
the running for Senator.
