AC College Faculty
Respond To Survey
By CHARLES WOLFE
Several weeks ago the Col
legiate interviewed a number of
students on campus, asking them
what they feel to be some of
the major strengths and weak
nesses of our college. As a follow
up to this the Collegiate has
once again conducted a survey
asking the same questions, but
this time asking the faculty’s
opinion.
As was true with the stu
dents, the faculty members saw
a major stren^ of the col
lege to be the close relationship
between the faculty, administra
tion, and students. Dr. TyndaE,
chairman of the Science depart
ment, said, “students are able
to feel at ease in the classroom
and this helps them to learn
faster. The informality of the
classroom situation also helps
for an interchange of ideas be
tween the teacher and the stu
dent. It is not just a one way
street. Instead, faculty members
also get ideas from the students.
This is much different from
the atmosphere in graduate
school where the pressure is
such that the students are al
ways running scared and place
more emphasis on memorizing
instead of learning.”
Mr. Purcell, religion depart
ment, also saw the informal re
lationship between faculty and
students as a strength. “It is
this type of thing that makes
it enjoyable to teach here. I
have greatly enjoyed the rela
tionships I have had with stu
dents,” he said.
Mr. Hollar, science depart
ment, stated that he felt a ma
jor strength was our reputation
as a close knit group in which
there are faculty who are very
interested in working close with
students.
An aspect of the college which
seems to be as great, if not a
greater, strength of the college
as far as the faculty is con
cerned is the academic freedom
which several seemed to feel is
very strong here. Mr. Purcell
also saw this as one of the
greatest strengths of the college
and one of the things which he
said makes it enjoyable for him
to teach at ACC. Dr. Tyndall
said, “I am able to teach what
I want to teach.” Dr. Paulsell
also said, “There are no re
strictions on what you say or
how you teach.”
Dr. Capps, chairman of the
Social Studies department, said,
“A strength of the college is the
fact that we have a growing
Miss Smith Is
Parliamentarian
Olivia Kaye Smith, a junior
from Kinston, N. C., was elected
Parliamentarian of the Student
N. C. Education Association
meeting at the
NCEA Conven
tion which was
held in Ashe
ville last week-,
end?
Olivia was
one of five del
egates from
ACC who were ,
attending thisi
meeting. The
other delegates SMITH
were Tony Rothrock, Annette
Baum, Jean Newsome, Della
Reaves, and Gordon Gibbs.
Miss Smith is the president of
the Clyde A. Erwin Chapter of
the SNEA at ACC. She is the
daughter of Mr, and Mrs. Werner
G. Smith of Kinston.
This two day bi-annual meet-
ing was attended by delegates
from most of the colleges in
N. C.
Meals To Be Catered
By ARA-Slater Service
Atlantic Christian College has
entered into a contract with
ARA - Slater to provide food
service for Atlantic Christian be
ginning with the first summer
school session of 1967.
Under the new food service
plan boarding students will be
entitled to 21 meals per week
including a choice of entries,
vegetables, salads, breads and
desserts. Seconds will be avail
able at no extra charge on all
items except prime meats an^
desserts. All beverages will iJe
unlimited. Menus may be posted
at least one week in advance.
Boarding students will pay
boanjing charges through the
business office as they have in
program here, both in the area
of physical plant and education.
It is a program which is being
designed to meet the needs of
the future. The quality of educa
tion is being stressed, and we
are trying to get the best faculty
we can. The problem is the uni
versities are not turning out
enough graduate students to
meet the needs of industry
and business along with that of
education.”
Dr. Hartsock, chairman of the
English department, also saw the
growing strength of the faculty
as a major strength of the col
lege.
Coach Ira Norfolk, director of
athletics and head basketball
coach, said, “A major strength
of the college is the initiative
demonstrated by a predominant
portion of faculty, st^f, and stu
dents to improve the overall op
eration of the school.”
The faculty also had a few
things to say about the weak
nesses of the college. Although
some were reluctant to enter in
to this area there were several
interesting responses.
Mr, Purcell, responded by say
ing, “As a ‘weekday drive-in
college’ we find it difficult to
become a community of scholars
to say the least, I think this is

Greeks Have
Week^s Fling
By JOHN HYSON
This is what you missed, if
you aren’t a G^reek that is.
Back in September the Inter-
fraterndty Council and the Pan-
Hellenic Council began plans for
Greek Week. Committees were
formed, agents were contacted
and votes were taken, and it
was decided to have the “Fabu
lous Five” for our big dance
with the “Showmen” for a show.
Next, the events for the week
were planned, and the individual
organizations began working on
their own contirbutions.
The first event of the week
was the carnival for the whole
campus. Everybody Was throw
ing cream cups, basketballs,
softballs, or swinging a sledge
hammer, There seemed to be a
majority of non-Greeks in on
the enjoyment.
The remaining activities were
for 'Greeks and their dates on
ly; and this is what you non-
Greeks missed, Thursday eve
ning the Greeks showed their
talent and stunt selections. Fur
ther competition for Greek Week
trophies took place Friday eve
ning when we showed our sing
ing proweS'S.
After the Greek sing, each
FYaternity went to their Fratern
ity parties. Alpha Sigma Phi
had entertainment by the “No
tations” at the Alpha Sig house,
Delta Sigma Phi and Sigma Phi
Epsilon joined in' at the Shrine
Club featuring the “Tropics,”
and Sigma Pi had the “Es
quires” at Wedgewood Country
CluJb.
Saturday afternoon the Greeks
bosted a Faculty reception at
the Woman’s Club building
where Greek Week and scholar-

the past and will be fed on a
basis of identification mutually
agreeable to ARA-Slater and the
college. Boarding charges will be
$50 per term for summer school
and $175 per semester for the
1967 - 68 school year.
Meals will be available to day
students, faculty, staff and visi
tors at the following prices:
breakfast, 65 cents; lunch, 85
cents; and dinner, $1,00; Sun
day dinner, $1,25, The same pri
vileges apply on seconds. Faculty
members who wish to do so may
have a five-day per week lunch
program for $66 per semester.
In deciding to turn to a pro
fessional organization for food
service. Atlantic Christian is
following a trend already set by
many schools in North Carolina,
The ARA-Slater organization is
currently handling the food ser
vice for 15 colleges in North
Carolina including Elon, Guil
ford, Louisburg, Davidson, N. C.
State, UNC at Greensboro and
Wake Forest, Before deciding on
the Slater organization college of
ficials ’received proposals from
five other food catering organi
zations.
