You think you got problems?
By Dennis Kirschbaum
Even since my appointment
to the post of minister of
vocabulary, many members of
the studentry and faculty have
come to me with difficult pro
blems concerning, spelling,
pronounciation, and meaning
This was quite within my ex
pectations; it seemed to me just
a part of the mass of responsi
bility I had taken on. However,
what I was totally unprepared
for was the sudden /influx of
requests for advice concerning
matters in peoples personal
lives. However, having long
noticed the need for an advice
service in the Cuilfordian, I
spoke with the editor and he
agreed that something like this

education. Being exposed to
only one perspective will tend to
give a student a simplistic idea
of "reality" in the world,
because both sides of an issue
are not presented.
I do want to sound overly
critical here because I do not
think (at least I hope not) that
any professor goes into a
course, with the purpose of
converting students to their
respective ideology. But in
advertently a professor will tend
to place more emphasis upon
the theories in which he/she
believes. This seems to be a
common trait in all teachers
(including teachers outside of
Guilford). I stress this point
because this trait does not make
one a poor teacher. Unfortu
nately, there has been a tend
ency, in some departments, to
have only one point of view
represented on the faculty. It

can come up with. Just to give
you an idea of some of the pleas

Dear Kirsch:
Every morning my roommate
wakes up at 5:00 A.M. and
begins to sing Italian aria at the
top of his lungs. The guys living
next door to us are getting kinda
upset and I've been losing a
would be nice to see a little

A fine job
Dear Editor,
Over the years, I have heard
members of this community
express a lack of confidence in
the Judicial Board. This has
probably been the result of
rumors or a limited knowledge
of individual cases.
This year I have served as an
alternate faculty member on the
Judicial Board. For various
reasons, I have been present
each time the Board has heard a
case. I feel therefore that I
would like to share with the
community my perceptions of
little sleep over it myself. What
should I do?
Sincerely,
Prehomicidal
Dear Pre:
Just relax. Your roommate is
probably just sad Perhaps due
to his upbringing he knows no
other way to express it. Does he
wake up naturally at that hour?
Perhaps you could set his alarm
clock ahead a few hours. Are
you sure he is really singing; it
sounds to me like he may be
lonely and moaning for atten
tion. Try talking to him how and
then instead of trying to block
your ears to his moans.
from p
the student members of this
year's Judicial Board.
I cannot recall working with a
group of students who are as
serious and concerned about
their important role in a campus
organization. Each of them
listened carefully to all the
evidence and based their decis
ions on the information pre
sented. They were unbiased
and completely fair in all their
deliberations. They accepted
their responsibilities with ma
urity and good judgement.
There were probably decis
ions made which were viewed
by defendents and others as
being too harsh or not harsh
enough. It is always easy to
criticize the decisions of any
judicial body -- especially if you
are not aware of all the facts of a
particular case.
I hope that all members of
this community will take time to
consider the important role
played by the student members
of the Judicial Board. I also
hope that you will take time to
thank them for the fine way they
respond to the sometimes
thankless job they are called
upon to perform.
Sincerely,

PIRG conducts survey
During this semester Guilford College students, Jeff Maker
and Dave Mackin, conducted a price survey on Bestway,
Foodworld, and Food Rite grocery stores. The significance of the
survey was to determine which stores had the lowest prices in a
comparable market basket survey.
Two stores from each chain were used in the survey. The
following chart represents the sum total (unweighted averages)
of twenty common food items found within the three chains. The
surveys were taken on March 16, March 30, and April 13.
Bestway " 3/30 4/13
Quaker Village $24.21 23.20 24.05
Phillips Ave. $24.23 23.91 24.11
Food World
Meadowview Rd. $23.63 23.20 22.54
West Market $23.75 23.20 22.65
Food Rite
Friendly Ave. $25.60 25.14 25.22
Asheboro St. $25.89 25.75 25.65
As a whole. Food Rite was more expensive than Bestway, and
both, respectively, were higher than Food World. In addition,
Food Rite was consistently more out of stock in the items
surveyed than either Food World or Bestway.

(Duke and Davidson in the
immediate area) in assessing
automobiles as an additional
asset. Any residential student
receiving need-based assistance
and operating a vehicle on
campus will have his/her contri
bution increased by an amount
equal to 10% of the mean Blue
Book value of the car. In other
words, the student's demon
strated need will be reduced by
that amount. All vehicles will be
assumed to have a minimum
value of $400.00.
It is important to note that
there is an appeal process
available to students who feel
they have not been given fair
and equitable treatment in the
assessment of their financial
need. Those who feel strongly
that theirs is a particularly
warranted special circumstance
may appeal, in writing, to the
Chairperson of the Financial
Aid Committee.
