Interrupted frequently by the sounds of mallards and Jackrabbits, I listened to my transistor as it belted out a ballad by a well-known singer called “Remember Me”. So far from and yet so close to UNCC, the buildings seemed to utter the cry remember me. The voices of Mr. Sanford, Mr. Moore and even little boy Atkins boomed through the peaceful valley. Then with no recourse left 1 screamed “How could I forget.” By the very existence of the purity of the nature that I dwelled in, “How could I forget?” Yes, How could I forget; Dr. Bonnie Cone, the Original 49er, whose spirit has seemed to captivate all those who know and love her. “LYCIDAS.” Rotaract’s first annual Green and White Roundball game which was won by the varsity. titles with Salt and Pepper winning the pre season Holiday Intramural Classic tournament. The Baby miners who have shown promise and determination despite a 2-3 record. Dean Rash, Mr. Weston, and former Dean McKay, who strive to solve student problems in the easiest way possible. / Mrs. Glover, Mrs. Jones and Miss Carol Hendricks who attempt to solve the thousands of problems of dormitory living. The Cheerleader’s spirit contest in which Alpha Delta Pi, Soul Phi Soul, Delta Zeta, Delta Delta, Theta Psi, The Engineers, Chi Phi, Kappa Sigma, and Alpha Kappa Psi displayed so much 49er spirit that the basketball team could not declare a winner because of the exhubriancy of the competition. The transistor played on as the air began to chill. “Remember me I’m your breath of spring” “Remember me I’m your good thing” The Baptist Student Union’s International Christmas Party in which the Sounds of America entertained. The farce of Recognition Day The initiation of the Theta Psi-SGA Book Exchange which promises to be successful. The Choral Program put on by the Music Department. The food service that has country ham on the day that its President visits, and which has the audacity to hang stuffed reminders of this farce. The Miss 49er Pageant in which Delta Delta’s and AKPsi’s, Miss Sharon Lynn Ballard, was chosen to carry the spirit banner of our ambitious 49ers who carried a 6-2 Tom Stafford’s appearance and the Drama Department’s packed house performances of And the fine intramural program that is being conducted by Mr. Floyd Kerr in which The Swampfoxes of Kappa Alpha Psi and the Hockos won the football Yes, How could I forget. Mr. Moore, Mr. Sanford, and even little boy Atkins, How could I forget the joys, pleasures, and even the sorrows of UNCC. Darkness was creeping in and I decided to make my way back up the lush green valley to the point where the red-orange fire was raging. Towards UNCC, my place and your place in the sun. *Inspiration from Diana Ross’s new single “Remember Me” A commuter replies record into 1971 which was captivated by a gutty struggle in Atlanta, Georgia and proved to Georgia Tech and the South that UNCC will one day be the UCLA of the East. Delta Delta’s spirit party that was held the day before the first home game and this sorority’s work with the United Appeal. Rotoract’s Christmas Party for the underpriviledged children from Oaklawn in which Jerry Springs ho hoed his heart out. The BSU’s Party Day for underpriviledged kids from the Greenville section where the kids played games and watched our mighty grapplers tangle The Citadel. The Carolina Journal which has evolved into a splendid collegiate paper under the leadership of Marcia Walker, Susan Sutton and Mike McCulley. Dear Editor: The definition of the University Community involves more than a problem of semantics. Crucial questions of power and influence are involved in this definition. Some students believe that the “dorm student is the University” (Holder, JOURNAL 12-17-70). These students believe that “power is concentrated where it should be, among the elite few” (Holder, JOURNAL- 12-17-70). I think that this definition of a University community and power structure leaves 3/4 of the UNCC student body out in the cold. so decides. Each ought to have the right to be active in participation in University activities. This should be a matter of individual choice. Some students are naturally going to become more involved than others. Personal choice is not necessarily Food Service Committee was set up back in 1969. This came about as a result of student complaint . with Food Service at UNCC BEFORE the “Expose” of the JOURNAL. Students at UNCC do not seem to be entitled to elite status because they happen to live in the dorms. ALL students, are part of the University community. Each ought to have the right to try to influence University policy if he come on people novo letsqet toqeCbeR novo 1971 INTERCOLLEOIATE MUSIC FESTIVAL ENTER NOW !

There are students who are vitally involved in the University who are not dorm students. To say that commuters are content to be inactive and unrepresented (Holder, JOURNAL, 12-17-70) is a glaring falsity. The evidence will not support such a statement. Students leading movements in political action with regard to electoral politics, Viet-Nam, Cambodia did not happen to reside in the dorms. Many of the leaders in the Black Student Movement are commuting It is clear that the University Community involves more than our friends in the dorms. Yet students. Students active in the literary publications at UNCC are not residents at UNCC. Much is made of the fact that dorm students were able to “expose” SAGA by means of this Fall’s series in the JOURNAL. The when one looks at the composition of the Student Legislature, the JOURNAL and most other agents of students power one finds an overwhelming preponderance of dorm students. It is certainly not representative of students at UNCC. I hope that these dorm students in positions of influence do not share Mr. Holder’s opinion of the commuting student. Just in case they do it would be helpful if the commuting students can attain some of these positions of influence. Bill Sigmon, Charlotte, N. C. -t The Carol!
