Milner Speaks Up
BY MIKE KINNAIRD
Last semester, there was a
general consensus among the
House Councilors, the Presi
dent, and the Coordinator of
Milner that the campus was
not made aware enough of
what Milner, as a dorm, was
doing. It was decided that
this semester an attempt
should be made to inform
the campus of our activities,
and I agreed to write an article
for each issue of The
Guilfordian. This week, I will
concentrate mainly on what is
planned for this semester so
far.
Interest has been expressed
by people in Milner to create
a program of mini-courses, in
various subjects. The courses
would be taught on a volun
tary basis by anyone willing to
teach them. The classes
would meet only a few times,
depending on the subject.
This idea is still in the
planning stages and we are
open to suggestions for
classes and volunteers are
needed for teaching. We
would like to encourage the
entire campus to participate
in this project, and we feel
that the classes can be very
useful and fulfilling to all of
those involved. If you have
any ideas and/or suggestions
about courses, or would like
to volunteer to teach one, see
either Mike Kinnaird in Milner
349 or Reid Moore in Milner
209. More information will
Edward Asner appears in Roots on ABC this week
"Roots"
Edward Asner played the
captain of a slave ship in the
first episode of Roots, a 12-
hour television series, that was
seen on ABC TV January 23.
The series, based on the best
seller of the same name,
concerns itself with the
experiences of a Black family
from the 1750's to the present.
The dramatizations offer a
different historical perspective
than is usually given of life
be given later as to a list of
courses, teachers, times,
places, etc....
A footsball contest will be
held later on this semester
in Milner. The winners will
receive either trophies or
placards. Because the foots
ball table was paid for by
Milner, and because Milner
funds pay for it's upkeep, a
nominal entry fee might be
placed on all non-Milner
entries. Everyone is encour
aged to practise up and enter
into the "Mister Footsball"
Tournament.
Some changes have been
made in the student govern
ment of Milner recently. Don
Hemrich replaced Walter Fox
as the House Councilor from
2nd North, and Reid Moore
was elected by the House
Council to take over for Dick
Parry, who resigned the
presidency. Reid will remain
in office until the spring
elections are held. Reid's
first official action was to re
write the Milner Constitution,
which needed some semantic
changes. The new constitu
tion goes before the Commun
ity Senate next week, and
approval is expected.

in America from colonial days
to the present. Fred Hunt
and Jim Gifford are offering
a course inspired by Roots.
The course uses the book and
TV series but is augmented by
academic materials that provide
the necessary historical back
ground. For more information
on the course call Fred Hunt
at Ext. 143 (Bryan HID or Jim
Gifford at Ext. 223 (Archadale
