Dr. Park and Psychology Students
Report Interesting Activities
Since the psychology depart
ment reports a number of in
teresting recent activities, it
would seem that that depart
ment of the college is quite
deserving of a little of the spot
light. Both students in the
psychology department and Dr.
Park, the professor, have been
quite active in recent weeks.
Dr. Park is a very busy person
besides her daily routine of
teaching classes, as evidenced
by the fact that in March the
issue of the Psychological Bulle
tin, published by the American
Psychological Association, car
ried an article by her entitled,
“What Constitutes a Good Text
book in Social Psychology?”
Later in that month Dr. Park
addressed the Beta Sigma Phi
sorority on the subject “Person
ality and Personality Relation
ships.”
During the week of March 13
through the 18, Dr. Park at
tended the workshop on client-
centered counseling at Chapel
Hill. In that workshop Dr. Park
presented a case to the group
and participated in a recorded
’interview with Dr. Carl Rogers,
'of the University of Chicago,
'who conducted the workshop.
The interview with him was to
demonstrate his method of coun
seling.
Four students in the Meredith
psychology department, Marjo
rie Joyner, Marilyn Mills, Betty
Ann Hall, and Carolyn Massey
have been tabulating and sum
marizing the results from the
problem check list given to the
seniors and sophomores in
December of last year. The
results of this list show the
major problems of Meredith
girls, and comparisons of these
results were made with those of
the same test at Stephens Col
lege in Missouri.
The greatest problems shown i
at Meredith were in the acade
mic field, with the percentages
as follows:
1. Too much work in some
classes—80 per cent.
2. Getting enough sleep—60.5
per cent.
3. Examinations — 59.5 per
cent.
4. Budgeting time and effort
—58 per cent.
5. Studying — 57.5 per cent.
6. Assignments — 57 per cent.
Percentages for Stephens Col
lege agreed on the whole with
these from Meredith, except
that their highest percentage of
76 per cent was for “getting
enough sleep.” Other similari
ties were found in problems of
personal health, general attrac
tiveness, campus life, rules and
regulations, and religion and
philosophy.
Under “dating,” the chief
problem for both girls’ schools
was in meeting boys, but
Stephens’ higher percentage in
dicates that they are more
worried about it than we are!

Spring to high school stu

means contests and music
festivals. Members of our
faculty have been very busy
judging these events.
On the first of April, the
Capital district held its contest
at Meredith, with Mr. Pratt and
Miss Donley judging the piano
and voice students. Mr. Pratt
will also help to judge the
events at the Southeastern Dis
trict contests in Greenville.

musical groups in Raleigh are
the piano ensembles, junior and
senior. A joint concert is planned
to present these groups to the
public next Tuesday night.
Resolved: That

ORDER BY AVtIL
A SOCIALISTIC U.S.A.?
Would you like to live in a socialist
America ? Most Americans wouldn’t.
But there’s a real danger that we will
—whether we want it or not.
One of the main roads to socialism
is government ownership and con
trol of important businesses. The
electric light and power business is
one—and this map shows how far
the government is in it already.
Every white dot—209 of them—
on the map marks an electric power
plant now operated or financed by
our federal government. Everv black
dot shows where another govern
ment power plant is being built, ex
panded or proposed. In alll—over
700 places in 44 states! And a long
step toward a socialistic U.S.A.
Most of the people who speak for
more government control over
American life don’t want a social
istic nation. They have other reasons
for government control.
But when government, moving
step by step, controls enough things,
we ll have a socialistic government,
whether we want it or not. And,
instead of our freedoms, we’ll have
government control, not only over
business, but over churches, schools,
homes—our whole lives.
