Double Standard Abolished At LC Cries of joy and excitement filled the College air Tuesday, November 15, when a women’s council meeting was held and the sophomore girls found out that they could have cars on campus. This privilege starts Dr. Herring Scholarship Established The Louisburg College Board of Trustees meeting recently set up a scholarship in memory of Dr. Herbert J. Herring of Durham, who had served as a member of the Board since 1952. The scholarship will be known as the Herbert James Herring Memorial Scholarship and will cover full tuition. It was estab lished in appreciation of Dr. Herring's service both as a Trustee and as a General Con sultant to the College. John W. Scott, Professor in the Law School at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill was elected a Trustee of the College. The Board authorized the ap pointment of a special com mittee to implement long-range plans already made by the Col lege. -Alumni Bulletin when we return from Thanks giving. Dean Patterson made the announcement at the meet ing. “This is something new we’re going to try for awhile,” said the Dean. The girls will have to keep the same rules they have always had, and they will also have to follow the same rules that the boys do about keeping the cars here. The girls must have a “C” average and may not per mit anyone to drive the car ex cept themselves unless the oth er person Is the sole passenger. The girls have to have permis sion from their parents to bring the car to Louisburg and must pay the fee the same as the boys do when they register the car. Until Tuesday night at the meeting, no one knew about the surprise except for Dean Pat terson, Jean Perry, who is president of the Women’s Coun cil, and the house mothers. The SGA did not influence Dean Pat terson In any way because none of them knew it except for Jean Perry. ‘ ‘ This was all Dean Pat- terson’s baby,” said ‘Sam’.” Dean Patterson said that Louisburg is the only college that he knew of that had given girls permission to keep cars on campus. He is not looking into second semester yet, be cause he doesn’t know If the pro gram is going to work. He is going to try the program for a while and whatever happens will decide his next move.
