Brevard College
now selling
Christmas trees
by Sandy Rogers
Why not buy your Christmas tree this
year from Brevard College?
Brevard College is selling Christmas
trees to add to the student scholarship
fund. “It’s a pilot program,” said Mark
Bailey, director of development. “We need
to find an alternative source of financial
aid and this is one way.”
The cost of the 6-foot-tall fraser fir trees
is $40. One-half of this price is a tax-
deductible contribution for the student
scholarship fund.
“We’re only going to sell top-quality
trees,” said Bailey. The Christmas trees
are grown in Brevard on tree farms, and
Bailey said that they “received the best
agricultural care.”
There are two ways to buy a Christmas
tree from Brevard College. Parents may
order one by sending in the form that they
received in the mail, or a student may buy
one from Bill Moore’s Christmas Tree
Club on campus.
For those of you who are wondering how
to get a Christmas tree home, Bailey said,
“We’ll tie them up with twine, and put
them in the back of students’ car.

Buy a slave
by Cathy Haynie
How would you like someone to wait on
you hand and foot for a day?
Your chance has come. SGA will be sell
ing “slaves” on Friday, Nov. 21 in the
cafeteria at 5:30 p.m.
Yes, you read right. SGA is sponsoring a
“Slave Day” in which members will be
auctioned off. The bidding will start at $2
per person. The bidder with the highest bid
will get to use his slave on Saturday, Nov.
22 from 12-6 p.m. Slave duties include such
tasks as cleaning bathrooms, doing laun
dry, shopping — anything within reason.
This is the first time SGA has ever done
anything like this. Shane Milling, co-vice
president of SGA, said that SGA isn’t sure
where the money raised will go as of yet —
perhaps to a needy family for Christmas.
Since this is a first time project, SGA of
ficers, representatives, and personnel are
the ones who are being put on the line or
rather the slave block as they put
themselves up for auction.
Members being sold are: Susan Bethel,
Andrea Ross, Shane Milling, Heather
Chamberlain, Chris Hood, John Wildrick,
Brian Sewell, Greg Gambrel, Ann Defen-
baugh, Terri Stone, Carol Besco, Frances
Lineburger, Amy McKeehan, Natalie Har
ris, and John Hoback.
Jeff Punches, Ace Lebo, Steve
Galezieski, Jeff Tucker, Robert Cooler,
Christy McKendry, Melissa Miles, Rachel
Makupson, Molly Rhen, Jay Schultz, and
Robert Brooks will also be up for auction.

CSF rocking along
by April Woods
Who says Christians don’t like to rock?
Not the Christian Student Fellowship
group here at Brevard College. They’re
making a trip to Atlanta on Saturday, Nov.
22 to see Christian contemporary pop
singer Michael W. Smith in concert. Smith
is the performer of such songs as
“Friends,” “Great is the Lord”, and “The
Race is On.”
But, CSF is not just a group of people
who get together to go to concerts. The
group’s president, Tammi Jones, says
“It’s a group of college kids who get
together for some good fellowship.”
Weekly meetings are held Tuesday
nights in the cafeteria. From 5 to 5:30, the
group eats dinner, then, from 5:30 to 6:30
holds its meeting. Bible study is held in the
Student Union at 9 p.m. on Sundays.
CSF’s other activities include sponsor
ing a child in a foreign country, raising
funds for the Summer Missions program,
and co-sponsoring the Thanksgiving din
ner.
Starting this Tuesday, after the regular
meeting, CSF plans to begin making a
weekly trip to the Brian Center, a rest
home. Jones says, “Basically, we just
want to be there for people who need
friends.”
