Decision ’90
Alcohol was the topic for over 500
student leaders and college
administrators who attended Decision
’SK), the second annual statewide college
conference on alcohol awareness held
at the North Raleigh Hikon and
Convention Center last week. U was
sponsored by the North Carolina
Alcoholic Beverage Control Commission
and the Governor’s Highway Safety
Program. Nine Meredith staff members
and students were registered to attend.
The two-day conference was kicked
off by Mrs. Lonise Bias, mother of
Maryland basketball star Len Bias, whose
death due to drug abuse, received
j'ional mei!:a attention t ier talk was
uLlvd “A Me.vsage of Hope: ’
Other sessions included Preventing
a Greek Tragedy; Liability Concerns for
Fraternities/Sororities, Dating Dynamics:
Young Restless & Intoxicated, Alcohol
Risk Management for Student
Organizations, Peer Intervention,
Women and Alcohol, and Opportunities:
How to Help Someone Who May Not
Want Your Help.
Dr. Jean Kilboume, a nationally
known lecturer on alcohol and cigarette
advertising, addressed the attendees on
the first night of the conference. She
discussed the image of women in
advertising.
Closing out the conference was
former basketball coach A1 McGuire,
.jresident of A1 McGuire F.nterprises.
Janice McClendon, Director of
Housing for Meredith, attended several
of the sessions. “One message I heard
during the afternoon was not for
responsible drinking, but for no drinking
at all,'* she said.
“We were told that statistics show
women are using more alcohol and that
DWls are on the increase for women,"
she continued. “We learned why it takes
less alcohol for a woman to become
intoxicated. And we were given a lot of
information in the dangers of drinking
while pregnant.”
“All in all, the sessions I attended
were helpful, with thought-provoking
information and well-informed
speakers,” she concluded.
sontinued from p^e 1
sang ‘Have Mercy” and "Forever and
Ever, Amen,” two top country music
songs made popular by the mother*
daughter duo The Judds and country
vocalist Randy Travis. Thisyear’s Bathtub
Ring is playedby Ann Hkxt; Uxi Williams,
Jennifer Pittman, Katherine Home, lajean
Mangum. Residence Director Becky
Bradshaw, advisor to the group,
accompanied them on guitar.
As the judges compared notes and
cast their deciding votes, the lights were
blacked out and students were treated
to a slide show under the moonlit sky.
Set to music, the slide show presented
glimpses of past Comhuskin’s, shots of
this year’s week-long competition, and
pictures of the women of Meredith
College doing what they like to do best:
laying out in the sun, having a good tithe
with friends, and graduating! The slide
show was put together with the
leadershipof Kelly White, Maria Williams
and Hope Howell.
The biggest honor of the evening
goes to Beth Lowry and Kim Audette,
Meredith Recreation Association’s
Traditions Co-chairs. Pulling off some
major new changes to what has been a
sacred event in Meredith’s history took
plenty of conviction, creativity and
coor>erative weather forecasts. Under a
clear moonlit starry sky, students, faculty
and staff enjoyed what many have
claimed to be Meredith’s “best
Cornhuskin’ ever!”
Internationally
Recognized Chorale
Performs
by Jane Kennedy
The Meredith Chorale presents its
Fall Concert this Sunday, November 11
at 3:00 p.m. in Jones Chapel. The forty
member group, under the direction of
James Powers, will be performing two
works by Machael Haydn, younger
brother of Franz Joseph Haydn.
Meredith's Michele Daughtry and an
orchestra composed of members from
the North Carolina Symphony and local
professionals will accompany them.
The music the Chorale will be
performing was secured in Salzburg and
Vienna, Austria, during their spring tour
of 1989. It is very likely that neither of
these works have ever been performed
in the United States. Because of this
possibility, the concert is being
recognized by the Michael Haydn Society
in Europe.
