minor supporting roles went to

We as Elon students must real
ize that we must accept Elon for
what it is. In some respects our
school is poor. Some of the equip
ment is old and obsolete or broken.
This is the fallacy of being a stu
dent.
We can only see Elon for what
it is now. I dare say that very
few of the campus students have
any idea as to how far Elon has
progressed over the years. We are
fortunate to have what we have,
and those coming behind us will be
even more fortimate. Each and
every student should strive to aid
the college in whatever way pos
sible or at least refrain from de
grading it.
