SIGMA TAU SICMA ORGANIZED
SGA NEWS
Sigma Tau Sigma, a Service Fraternity, was organized on
October 10. The purpose of this fraternity is to develop
leadership, friendship, and to promote service to the student *
body, the faculty, the community, and to the "brothers" them- *
selves. *
Sigma Tau Sigma Service Fraternity members are very proud *
of themselves because their fraternity is the first of its *
kind in the community college program in North Carolina. *
The fraternity sponsored a general "clean up" in front of *
the classroom buildings. They successfully held a car wash *
at the Phillip 66 station on Berkeley Boulevard to raise funds. ^
Also, during the recent election period, members of the *
fraternity and others campaigned for a local district judge. *
This was also a sourse of raising funds. Last week a pizza *
party was given for those who helped in this project. *
One of the future projects of the Sigma Tau Sigma is ob- *
taining butt cans for the classroom buildings.
At the beginning of the winter quarter, the Sigma Tau Sigma ^
will have a "rush" period for those boys who are interested in ^
belonging to the fraternity and have at least a "C" average. *

SCIEircE CLUB SPONSORS SYMPOSIUM *
*
The Science Club, under the direction of Dr. William D. *
Draper, Chairman of the Science Department, presented a *
Symposium entitled, "Tomorrow is Here - Are You Ready?" It ^
lasted from 3 pm to 10 pm November 22 at St. Stephens Parrish *
House, downtown Goldsboro. *
Months of planning, organizing and sending for quality films *
and displays came to a successful conclusion at the Symposium. *
Among the many displays was a specially designed typewriter *
which was "tied in" to a digital computor in Raleigh. Mr. Ed- ^
ward Blakeway, Adjunct Professor of Computor Technology at NC *
State University, asked several people in the audience to ask *
questions dealing with scientific and mathmatical problems *
that were answered by the computor in a language called "Basic." *
Mr. Loy Diggers, the Chief Medical Technologist at feyne ^
County Memorial Hospital, performed blood typing tests for the *
visitors, checking Rh factors, etc. *
Dr. Daniel Carrol, Professor of Food Chemistry at NC State, *
demonstrated and provided samples of protein food products ^
such as bacon strips which are made from soy beans. He spoke *
about Bontrae, one of the new protein foods made from spun soy *
protein, other nutrients and flavorings, with a flavor like *
beef, chicken and ham. Bontrae was shown to be ideal for veg-
itarians, people on special diets and people with religious ^
dietary restrictions for, as Dr. Draper puts it, "You can eat *
pork that has never seen a pig!" ^
Science Club members showed films and directed discussions
on "The History of Hallucinogenic Drugs," "LSD and Marijauna," *
and the "Fantastic Light - Laser." There was also a very *
interesting discussion entitled, "Science Disrupts Religion *
and Philosophy. »

The Student Government As
sociation, throught the ef
forts of advisors, adminis
tration, and others, has got
ten off to a good start this
year.
Due to our change of status
from a technical institute to
a community college, the con
stitution of the SGA is being
revised to bring up to stand
ard our qualities as a college.
This year's SGA has pledged
itself to a year of hard work
and with the cooperation and
support of the entire student
body, our goals will be met.
Communication is a problem
among students at WCC. That
is why there will be a Com
munique"^ reporter present at
all SGA meetings to keep the
students informed on all SGA
activities.
Thus far, two dances have
been sponsored by the SGA.
Both dances were successful,
to a certain extent. There
were only a limited number
of people who were willing
to help decorate for the
dance, etc. I would like to
say to those individuals,
"Thank you for your interest
in your school and for help
ing in the SGA program."
I'hope that in the future
more of you will give the
SGA your utmost support.
Remember, the Student Gov
ernment Association is Your
organization, and it is op
erated for Your benefit.
Don't let all the work
and burdens fall on just a
few people I Participate in
your student government as
much as possible.
