WE APPRECIATE YOU
by Connie R. Morrow
Meredith is a college of tradition and
close frtends. It is a college where the
students and faculty can share not only
an educational relationship, but also a
spiritual relationship. These are just a
few of the many aspects which make our
school special. The MCA Worship Com
mittee has been helpful in allowing these
special aspects of Meredith to continue.
Wednesday worship is a Meredith tra
dition with close interaction between
Meredith’s faculty and students. TTie
Worship Committee is responsible for
each week’s speal^er, special music,
worship leader and carillonneur. With

Negotiation
Workbook
Frederick, Md. (I.P.) — The "Room
mate Negotiation Workbook," a step-by-
step ap(»'oach to reaching agreements on
living together, so that disputes are pre
vented and to resolving disagreements-if
they do arise, is part of an overall pro-
gram.to teach the students practical so
cial skills they will need throughout tfieir
lives, according to Hood's Director of
Counseling Dr. Barliara Engram.
Engram, who wrote the Workbook, ex
plains that when a disagreement arises,
students must use negotiation before re
questing a room change from a college
dorm counselor. The negotiation
training, introduced campus-wide last
year, works. The number of mid-year
roommate cfianges and requests for

son, the committee has planned a wide
variety of worship services in an effort to
make worship an experience for every
one. For example, so far this year our
Meredith faculty lead one service, our irt-
temational students lead one service,
and we’ve had many other speakers re
presenting various organizations as wor
ship speakers. Planning a service for
every week isn't an easy job; however,
our worship committee has been doing
an outstanding job this year. Worship
Committe - thank you for your hard vrork
and dedication. We appreciate you!

Just today. I’ll trust you. Father.
From break of day to set of sun.
Just today, I will not question
Anything that You fiave done.
Just today, I’ll walk erect,
With head held bravely high;
Tho' heart doth break, and doutTts arise,
' I will not question why.
Just today. I’ll lay aside
Each troubling care I own.
And flow with you in harmony
Into redms I’ve never kr>own.
Just today, I’ll be about
The performance of each task.
Just then I heard Him whisper,
"That's all I’ve ever asked!”

tion in 1979.
Through h^ studies in religious
education in the serhinary, McGuire dis
covered tt»at her "primary interest is
worting with college students." At Win
gate College, I^Guire began her first job
working with college students as a resi
dence counselor. There she was able to
put her newly-learned counselling tech
niques to use. While McGuire was
worting at Wingate, one of the students
suggested that she get involved in camp
work. For a change, McGuire decided to
pursue it. McGuire accepted a position
as camp director of Mundo Vista In
Asheboro for the North Carolina Wo
men's Missionary Union. As camp direc
tor, McGuire kept involved with the
young college women while Increasing
her activity with missions work. Two
years later McGuire "got tired of It" (the
camp routine) and. wanted to get back to
the college setting.
Getting back to the college setting was
also one of the hardest recoupings for
McGuire. After living alone for three
years, moving back into a college dorm
suite with none of the conveniences of
home was a difficult adjsutment. Now
having worthed at IVteredith for three
years, McGuire confesses, “I'm hardly
ever here anyway so I haven’t invested
time into m^ing It a home.” A mirror
stands against the wall Ijehind her couch
and the white cinder blocks remain bleak
with no pictures to cover them. McGuire
thinks the room “reflects transition, both
personally and professionally.” The only
thing that seems to be completely In tact
Is McGuire herself. Her bright red hair Is
