Study, Sweat, Sleep, Swim,
Suffer and Sun this Summer in School
BY RICHARD PHILLIPS
Everybody knows what it
means when exam time is just
about here, right? Summer is
soon to follow for sure. And
that means that everybody has
to find something to do.
If you have to find your
something, one thing seriously
worth considering is summer
school. This year's Greensboro
Regional Consortium summer
program will be held on the
campus of Guilford College.
The Greensboro Regional
Consortium's summer program
is directed by Dr. William J.
Lanier of Greensboro College.
The consortium program is an
accumulation of the resources
of Bennett, Greensboro, and
Guilford Colleges.
There will be two sessions
of day classes: May 23 to June
25 and June 27 to July 30.
In addition, there will be the
regular offerings of the Urban
Center in the evenings, twice
a week (Monday and Thurs
day) from May 23 to July 30.
Consortium classes during the
day will meet five days a week.
Housing will be provided in
Bryan Hall. Room and board
for a summer school student
will cost $45 per week. In
addition, there will be a two
dollar activity fee for each
semester. Tuition charges will
be SSO per credit hour.
Dr. Lanier sees the course
offerings for this summer as
"above and boyond the
usual." A principle feature
of the first semester's course
HALEY,
ma nee County and eventually
descendants of the Murrays
(the family who had owned
Haley's Great Grandfather and
Grandfather) supplied Haley
with needed information for
his book.
Mr. Haley felt the "classic
journey across the seas"
accounted for much of the
popularity of Roots, since
almost all peoples arrived to
live here after severing
homeland ties. Apparently
those ties to Mr. Haley's
homeland are still alive, for
in some African huts pictures
of Kunta Kinte, as portrayed
by Levar Burton, hang,
linking the past with the
present. The translation of
Roots into 22 different
languages is linking both the
personal and national heritage
of numerous Americans to
shores from which many of
their ancestors came.
offerings will be the "Seminars
West Field Trip" led by Drs.
Charles Almy and Cyril
Harvey. In addition, for the
first time, studio art will be
offered and the newly-dedicat
ed Hege-Cox Arts Center
will be utilized. An
English course in "Business
and Technical Writing" is
another innovation. Dr. Ben
Wilson of Greensboro College
has busily been soliciting
recommendations from the
larger corporations in the
Greensboro - High Point area
as to what elements are nece
ssary for sound business and
technical writing and he is
using the. information to con
struct the course. "Liberation
Theology (Black and
Female)" should provide for
interesting readings and
discussions in the field of
regligion. And what better
way to spend a sunny summer
afternoon than in search of
specimens for Dr. William
Fulcher's "Field Botany"
class?!
The second day session will
be highlighted by the return
of an art course in photo
graphy. Ann Deagon will be
teaching "Mythology" and
"Creative Writing - Poetry."
And "Afro-American History"
will prove a timely course of
study following the Roots
explosion. "Principles and
Diagnosis of Learning
Disabilities and Disorders
of Children - Prescriptive
Teaching" will provide a com
bination classroom and field
experience for members of

Wealth, recognition and
success have displaced

money cannot buy any of
them."

cultivated manners and
general compassion drew
praise from Haley who disclos

coming back home, physically
and socially." Personally,
I could not think of a better

this class. Each day excep
tional children will be brought
to campus and those in the
class will work with the
handicapped kids in the
psychology labs in King Hall.
This course will be for six
credits and meet for three
hours each morning.
Dr. Lanier feels that attend
ing the summer session at
Guilford will result in a summer
well-spent. Not only can one
pick up some lagging credits
or grab a few extras, but the
lazy summer days on Guilford's
campus will make for some
good times. The Consortium,
drawing from the resources of
three colleges, will provide
some new faces in and at the
front of the classroom. Addi
tionally, there might be as
many as thirty Summer
Scholars (academically-proven
high school juniors) attending.
The Eastern Music Festival will
once again be situated at Guil
ford for the better part of the
summer. There will be some
kinds of classical musical
entertainment almost every
night of the week for the six
or eight weeks the festival
runs. If one is more
athletically inclined, the
tennis courts and College Lake
are available.
Summer school looks like it
might be worth investigating
for a mixed-bag of summer
activities. If you are
interested, contact Cathy
West at the Urban Center or
the Main Campus Admissions
Office in New Garden Hall
for information about
admissions.

Have You Heard?
BY MIKE KINNAIRD
What two sports does
Guilford have that never get
coverage in the Gui/fordian?
I can name them right away,
they are lacrosse and golf.
We've had a lacrosse
team for five years now and
a golf team for several. Both
are fine sports, and deserve
all of the attention that they
can get.
Originally, lacrosse was a
pre-battle ritual game for
certain tribes of American
Indians. It was played along
a trail, and then as now,
lacrosse was a rough game.
Lacrosse is so rough, in
fact, that the team is having
trouble with injuries.
Mike Cohen, the goalie, is out
for the season due to a concu
ssion. Dan Odom is out with
an injured knee.
The team has been plagued
with other problems as well
as injuries. Coach Forbes, who
is a great football coach and
is able to maintain the
respect and good feelings
of all the team, has never
played lacrosse consistently,
and consequently is unable to
coach the team as well as
someone who has had training
in the game.
Also, unlike other sports
here at Guilford, no effort has
been made to recruit good
lacrosse players. This season, (
two people that had never (
played lacrosse before were
able to start. To make
matters worse, student interest
in lacrosse has been very low.
As a result of all these
difficulties, the team has not |

Wall + Page = $
Sherri Wall and Howard
Page announce their plans to
be married May 7, 1977. Ms.
Wall is a chemistry major and
will be attending graduate
school this fall. Mr. Page is
a double major in physics
and math. He will be employed
in Falls Church, Virginia
April 26,1977
this year. The record so far
is 3 and 6. They did, how
ever, beat archrivals Eion and
; Davidson.
Their record has been
improving steadily. Last year
they were 0 and 4.
The captains this year are
Dave Rosenzwieg, who learned
how to play in New York,
and Dan Sommerville. There
are twenty five people on the
team, mostly freshman and
sophomores. Next year's
season starts early in March,
and it promises to be an even
better season, as the team has
been coming together more
and more as this eason has
progressed. We should keep
an eye on this "fastest sport
on foot" more.
Guilford has had a golf
team for quite some time now,
although they haven't had
much recognition. The golf
team has done very well in
the regular season this year.
Guilford has initiated a recruit
ing program for golf, and it
shows in their record, which
is 12 and 4. Coach Jensen,
who also coaches basketball,
has done an excellent job.
The home games are played
at The Cardinal Golf Club,
which is on Fleming Road,
just down New Garden, going
away from town. Regular
season play is over, but the
tournament, which will be
held in Salisbury, North
Carolina, will be Monday
and Tuesday.
The golf team has also been
improving lately, and will be
even better next year. Let's
all get out and support these
little-known, but very fine
sports.
