Only One Student's Opinion
As I approach the end of my
first semester here at
Fayetteville State University, I
find myself confronted with
students who feel like the
University does not have
adequate learning material and
the University does not prepare
them properly for the world of
work. In essence the University
isn't holding its end of the
barg.
As I take a good look at the
at the student who made the
comment, I find the student has
poor study habits and hardly
ever brings in his/her
homework.
Knowledge is not something
that is inherited. You have to
have excellent study habits and
use the materials that the
university can offer.
First of all, I would like to
say that the university has an
excellent leader. A leader with
high standards for academics.
If the students would just
follow the leader or try to
match his standards of
academics, they will find that
Fayetteville State University is
one of the finest universities in
the state. Fayetteville State
University has one of the finest
tutorial services anywhere
mainly because it has students
like you and me helping each
other to become better
individuals. The faculty at
Fayetteville State University is
dedicated not only too teaching
the student during the
respected time frame but, even
one on one with students in
their offices that to me is a sign
of a commitment to see that
each and every student is
properly prepared.
You as a student must take
advantage of some of the finest
resources here at the university
and apply yourself totally
toward your studies and to
becoming a better person. As I
conclude to say Fayetteville
State University is ready but,
are you ready for Fayetteville
State University.
This is only one student's
opinion.

Oh! Beloved Africa
We Care
We the children of today
Must find the route, the perfect way
To do away with starvation
To banish it in all nations.
So America has devised a scheme
To reachout to those who are in need
Together we'll turn stone into bread
So hungry ones can be fed.
Many people are in poverty
Who need our help, our liberty
The more we give, the more we're blessed
Let's sacrifice and give our best.
If we believe then we can't fall
Lets give our hearts, our all and all
By making such a sacrifice
We are saving other lives.
People are people no matter who
We each need love and compassion too
Some of us have been blessed with wealth
Lets use these funds to be of help.
Why don't we all join hands and give
And make this world a better place to live
Lets reach out without holding back
And give from our hearts to those who lack.
Africa needs all of our support
Lets give them that and even more
Divided we fall, together we stand
We can make Africa a more fruitful land.
If we believe then we can't fall
Lets give our hearts, our all and all
By making such a sacrifice
We are saving other lives.
Lets exile people dying in the streets.
Because they haven't any food to eat
We have the answer, we have the key
Our contributions can make this cease.
What a blessed nation of people we are
We set our goals and reach for the star
We'll stop at nothing and achieve what we plan
In order to give Africa all that we can.
God is so pleased with this inner drive
He is sure to bless our every strive
Lets keep on moving, we've come so far
Its because we keep pressing, we are who we are.
If we believe then we can't fall
Lets give our hearts, our all and all
By making such a sacrifice
We are saving other lives.
Africa we love you and we do care
We want you to know that we are here
You are our brothers and sisters alike
Whatever your problem, also our plight.
When this great work comes to an end
Your country will be blessed with many millions
For these are the dollars we plan to raise
To make Africa a more prosperous place.
God is good and God is great
Your destitute he'll take away
Your agriculture he well surely bless
Increase your joy and happiness.
We will help the U.S. tao
Ten percent will go to whom it's due
May God bless Africa now and always
And may their future hold brighter days.
If we believe then we can't fall
Lets give our hearts our all and all
By making such a sacrifice
We are saving other lives.
