ATLANTIC CHRISTIAN COLL
New Library
Planned
Atlantic Christian College has
begun to fulfill several major
college projects recently. Out of
five projects, a new learning
resource center, preferably
termed library, is now in a stage
of planning. Some of these
projects have already been
begun. For instance,
preparations are now being
made for the new Nursing
building and acquisition of
additional property. Projects
involving debt service and other
campus improvements are also
current aims of the college. ACC
is now in the second phase of a
15-year program divided into
three phases. Its purpose is to
secure funds from all sources.
The total goal of this program is
$2,700,030 out of which $1,028, 250
has been earmarked for the new
library as its projected cost.
Originally scheduled as a
project for the first phase of this
program, plans for the new
library have had to be postponed
until now due to lack of
appropriate funds.
Nevertheless, a special faculty
administrative library
committee serving in
consultation with the library
architects and the
administration has been
reactivated. Serving on this
committee are Dr. William
Paulsell as chairman. Dean
Lewis Swindell, Mr. Otis
Coefield, Mr. Charles Rakow,
and Mr. Gene Purvis.
At present, preparations for
the new library have not yet
reached a stage of drawn floor
plans. However, plans have been
suggested and such proposals
have yielded some decisions
concerning the new building and
its maintenance. The new
library will be capable of
housing 182,000 volumes and the
building’s construction will
provide for future expansion
upon necessity. Our library
currently holds about 90,000
volumes at its maximum
capacity although it was
designed for 75,000 volumes.
Another 20,000 special
uncatalogued volumes are now
housed in the library annex. The
new library will be a two-story
building. The first floor will
consist of a vestibule, lobby and
check-out desk. A service area
will surround these features of
the library and study carrels will
be located on the perimeter and
among the stacks. The second

floor will hold most of the

and additional carrels
Upon moving into the new
library across the street from
the administrative building, the
administration will move into
the old library. The present
administrative building will be
converted into facilities for
possibly two academic
departments.

The 1975 Edition of NCSL
By ALLAN RICHARDSON
This year’s North Carolina
Student Legislature is operating
under a few revisions which
have been made by the SGA of
Atlantic Christian College. In a
step to improve the efficiency of
the organization the Student
Government Association has
made two very important
amendments.
The amendments which were
made are dealing with the
constitution of the newly formed
Social Science Club. The first, is
to affiliate the Social Science
Club with the North Carolina
Student Legislation, whereas,
last year there was no Social
Science Club and NCSL was on
its own.
The second of these amend
ments calls for the delegation
chairman of NCSL to be elected
by the Members of the Social
Science Club and not appointed
by the SGA President.
This year’s delegation from
ACC will be carrying two bills
which will leave room for one
more to be chosen, as ACC can
carry three to the assembly. The
two which have been selected by
our delegation thus far are
dealing with corporal punish
ment in secondary schools and
the gun control laws of North
Carolina. There are a number of
bills being reviewed to be taken
as our third bill and will be
selected shortly.
As a whole NCSL has started a
new facet which will be im
portant to our relations with the
State Government of North
Carolina. We have started to poll
Music Now
Marvin Lamb, composition-
brass instructor at Atlantic
Christian College, has been
notified that his article,
“Establishing a Contemporary
Chamber Ensemble at a Small
College,” will appear in the
January periodical, “Music
Now,” published by the
Southeastern Composer’s
League.
The article is based upon
Lamb’s founding of the Atlantic
Christian College Chamber
Ensemble. The ensemble is an
“adhocracy” of music faculty
and students dedicated to ex
ploring through research and
performance, avant-grade and
“new” music by established or
— relatively unknown 20th
century composers.
He was asked by the editors of
the publication to write the
article since Atlantic Christian
is one of the few colleges in the
Southeastern region with an
active chamber ensemble of this
nature.
students about different issues.
It will record the opinions of
students all over the state and be
reviewed by the government
officials in Raleigh to see how
the majority of students feel
about various issues of concern.
This year’s NCSL will be held
in mid-March. Anyone in
terested in contributing ideas
which will help this year's
delegation are asked to contact
Joe Hunnicutt at 237-8436.

Grants
Grants totaling more than
$47,000 will be distributed to 39

In the Wilson area, Atlantic
Christian College received a
grant in the amount of $900.
The N.C. colleges and
universities are among almost
1,000 private accredited two- and
four-year institutions across the

purpose programs in elemen
tary, secondary, higher, and
continuing education.

Referendum
By BARKY MORdAN
On January 28th and 29th in,
Hamlin Student Center the ]
Student Government associa
tion will hold an election on
two questions. Placed before
the students will be the question
of whether to endorse a two
dollar increase in the student
activity fee beginning with fall,
and secondly, whether the
academic requirements for
cheerleaders should be changed
to those of the athletes.
The reasoning behind the two
dollar increase in the student
activity fee is because of in
flation. The rising costs have
reduced the purchasing power of
the SGA. The rationale in asking
the students to change the
requirements for cheerleaders is
that they are part of the athletic
program and should not,
therefore, be asked to meet
stiffer requirements than the
athletes. Athletes must only pass
twelve semester hours and must
meet the academic
requirements of the college to
stay in school. Polls will be run
from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and
students are reminded to bring
their IDs.

was demonstrated last
Saturday night in their
quick response to the fire

minutes. The fire blazing
forth from the waste
container was quickly
extinguished and the
residents of Hilley Hall
were allowed to return to
their rooms.
