Board Of Trustees TTie Age Of Aquarius a sity Cs: s. f raliif tal ;. ^1 U. )urs, a “f t b ) off nslai By NANCY BRINSON And JAN WHITLEY Since the musical “Hair” made its debut astrology has been re-introduced into the twentieth century. Not many people realize that astrology has played an important part in the history of the world. It had its beginnings in ancient civil- zations, and many medieval kings had astrologers as part of their councils. It was a fore- ij runner of modern astronomy. It * lost its appeal after Copernicus I proved the sun to be the center of j our solar system. Its revival 1 came with the song “Aquarius.” , Since that time the popularity of astrology has skyrocketed. Its influence is seen throughout the contemporary scene. Thus it seems only fitting that the theme for our 1970-71 Homecoming should be “The Age Of Aquarius,” with the twelve houses of the sun being represented. The Sophomore Class is representing Aries, the Ram. It is the sign for March 21-April 19. Aries is ruled by Mars and represents birth. A person born under this sign always gets what he wants — his needs come first. He is innocent and fearless; dreams fabulous dreams, but he cannot lie. He is very direct and has a super ego. He will always be at the head of his chosen career, and he usually happier at creative arts and business. Patience is not his strong point. Taurus the Bull is to be represented by Sigma Phi Epsilon. It is the sign for April 20-May 20. Taurus is ruled by Venus. He has a strong, silent attitude, and he is steady and solid. He wants to be left alone, and his temper is seldom displayed impulsively. He seldom worries, and he is stubborn. He is strongly attrac tive to the opposite sex. He is a homefolk. Gemini, the Twins, has been assigned to the Junior Class, The dates are May 21-June 21; Gemini is ruled by Mercury. He is impatient and knows where he stands. He has quick-moving eyes and is eager. He has graceful movements and is immediately friendly. He can do two things at once; he doesn’t like routine. He is skilled at creative writing and is very honest. He hardly ever gets enough sleep. He seeks an ideal. Sigma Sigma Sigma has been See AQUARIUS Page 2 “The Age of Aquarius” will come into full bloom this weekend as the Atlantic Christian College Homecoming brings on the parade. All twelve houses of the sun will be seen as the parade progresses down the annual parade path of Nash Street. TeU It like It Is! By JIM ABBOTT Over 30 members of the Atlantic Christian College Board of Trustees were on campus last week for their annual autumn meeting.

A wish will often reveal the personality and the inner most desires of a person. Some wishes show selfishness, some show honest concern over the world situation, some show concern over the campus situation... these are just a few. If you had one wish...what would your wish be?
