Rights, and the revision of the
N4CSGA Constitution.

A dinner banquet and poolside
reception was held to honor
Raymond L. Jeffries Jr., who is
retiring as Associate Director
of Student Development of the
N4CSGA.
Jeffries has served the
N4CSGA since 1969 and missed .
only one conference. Jeffries
stated, "This is my last
official conference, but I shall
return."
You can't buy experience, so
I would like to see more
students get involved. Be
positive, look for the good side
of people. Kids make mistakes,
but you have to have faith in
them. If you can't say something
nice, don't say anything."
