Grants Available to N.C. Residents
In June 1975, the General
Assembly of North Carolina
established a program of
Tuition Grants for bonafide
North Carolina resident
students attending approved
North Carolina private colleges
and universities.
Guilford College is an
approved private college; legal
residents who attend Guilford,
then, are entitled to a grant
of up to $l5O each semester.
The basic requirement is a
legal 12-month residency prior
to the registration date for the
school term. Copies of the
Grant regulations and the
Residency requirements are
on file in the Library for your
information.
Applications are made and
approved by the State for
each semesters Grant to
benefit qualified Guilford
students. When the Grant
money is received from the
State the student's account is
credited for the amount of his/
her grant. In those cases
where any need money has
been awarded from other
financial aid money, this resi
dency Tuition Grant has
already been included in the
amount of your original North
Carolina aid. It is assumed
that this grant will represent
$l5O each semester, but in
the event that the amount
requested by all colleges is in
excess of the total amount
authorized by the General
Assembly, the individual grants
will be reduced accordingly.
The grant regulations are
clear in stating that it is the
responsibility of the student to
notify the Registrar's Office
of any changes that affect
residency status and related
qualification for Tuition Grants.
Recipients of grants must
report anything that may
change their eligibility. Other
students not awarded a grant
to date must apply for the
grant if when they believe
they meet the grant qualifica
tions.
Your current residential
classification, for purposes of
applicable tuition rates, is
required to be changed if,
since original establishment
of your current classification,
your state of legal residence
has changed. (1) If you
currently are classified as a
nonresident for tuition pur
poses, it is your right to peti
tion for a change in classifi
cation to that of resident.
For at least the twelve
month period immediately pre
ceding the date of petition,
you must have been a legal
resident of the State of North
Carolina. If it is determined
that you have been a legal resi
dent for the required twelve
month period, the effective
date of change in applicable
tuition rates shall be the begin
ning of the academic term
following the date of application
for tuition change. (2) If you
currently are classified as
a resident for tuition purposes,
it is your obligation to petition

Marijuana is probably the
most used and abused drug
to entice the American
people since alcohol. Under

Keith Mcßride's everything
you-wanted-to-know book
about marijuana (Greatlakes
Living Press, $4.95) is a
mini-encyclopedia about the
drug and what the 13-million
folks who use it do with it.
Of course they smoke it, but
they also use it to liven up
home-made date bars and left
over spaghetti sauce, by the
way, George Washington was
said to have grown it but not
smoked it, and Queen Victoria
used it to relieve monthly
female trouble.
This book lays bare the
substance and its use,
discusses addiciton, side
effects, THC (the drug's
narcotic substance) and
reviews today's drug laws
with information on local,
state, national and internation
al restrictions.
Besides being an encyclo
pedia for pot smokers, Under
standing the Weed offers
parent of pot smokers the
kind of information they will
need to talk intelligently with
their kids about the use and
abuse of marijuana. All the
buzz words are here, and
details on cigarets, joints,
pipes, bongs, roaches,
water pipes and other aspects
of using the weed are explained
in clear and concise language
simple enough for those
over 30 to understand.
And for those bored, with
simply smoking pot, the
book includes recipes for pot,
