Page Six THE BENNETT BANNER FRIDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1976 Advertising Highlights A&T Workshop (Continued from Page 5) business/advertising lecture. 'Wel don Washington, of Dow Chemi cal, and Gregory Phillips of the “Winston-Salem Journal/Sentin el,” were the guest speakers. They covered such areas as sales pitch, making the businessman see how advertising is to their advantage, and how the salesman can take the customer’s objectives and use them to his advantage. At noon the sessions broke up for lunch, which was held at the A&T University cafeteria. Meet ings resumed at 1;00 p.m. How ever, the last two hours of the seminar were devoted to a panel discussion about The Role Of the College Newspaper. Students Must Aid Cafeteria Staff (Continued ^rom Page I ) senior, said, “They should know how many students are coming and not run out of food.” Addressing herself to these is sues, Mrs. Jones said, “We pre pare for 500 students, som× more. We even provide substitutes for students who don’t eat pork. We look out for all our students. We have many who are doing stu dent teaching and as we have done in the' past those students can al ways come in the back and eat so they can get to their destina tion on time.” While problems still remain, some students are enjoying the “good” food in the cafeteria. Cheryl Langford and Sandra Mottly, two freshmen, both said “The food is good and compli ments go to the chef.” However, Jill Smith, a junior, smilingly commented, “The food is ok but get some grease relief for those porkchops.” The service in the cafe>teria would be handled with ease if students would give Mrs. Jones suggestions as to how things could be improved. Mrs. Jones com mented, “This is our dining hall. We can make it be just what we want it to be. I am willing to work with students as to what type of menus and any other dif ferent things they wish to try.” N.C. to Sponsor 1977 Internships The intricate workings of the General Assembly will be the fo cus of a twenty-week internship designed for upperclassmen in social sciences from colleges in North Carolina. Ten students will be selected for internships this year in the program sponsored by the N. C. General Assembly and the Department of Politics at North Carolina State University. Upperclassmen from any four- year college in the state are eligi ble and should send inquiries to Dr. Oliver Williams, Department of Politics at NCSU. The interns will work as staff assistants and researchers for of ficers and members of the 1977 General Assembly while pursuing a parallel course of study at North Carolina State University. They will work a minimum of 25 hours a week at the General Assembly and will take two cours es on the legislative process and state government. They also will participate in weekly seminars. For their work, they will receive 12 hours of academic credit and $1,000. The deadline for applying for one of the internships is Oct. 25. Interested students should send an application form, an official tran script and three letters of refer ence to Williams at NCSU. The appointments will be made by a committee composed of the speaker of the house, the lieuten ant governor and the head of the Department of Politics at NCSU, along with two other professors from other colleges in the state. Those persons responsible for coordinating the workshop were Benjamin Forbes ,editor-in-chief of the “A&T Register,” and the Register’s faculty advisor, Mrs. Loreno Marrow. No Fingerprints Talcen by Police (Continued from Page 1) crime, too many hands were put on the cars, so they couldn’t take any fin gerprints. Mrs. Henryhand said that the policeman on duty that night told her that he had gone to check the park ing lot twice, and both times everything looked fine. The campus policeman who ’ft’as on duty that night was unavailable for com ment. As it stands now, Gilda had to replace her tires and it amounted to $156.00. Wessey and Virginia are still waiting to hear from their insurance companies.

Will wonders never cease! photo by Joyce Bass 5 Courses Added Five Women’s Studies mini courses will be offered during the fall semester at Bennett for one credit hour each. The objective of Womens Studies mini-courses, according to Dr. Dorinda Trader, director of Women’s Studies, is “to make stu dents aware of the contributions of women. The objective is met through guest speakers, seminars and readings. The courses are not test-oriented.” Dr. Trader also stated that “Women’s Studies are special to Bennett women because opportunities are opening in the field of Women’s Studies and Ben nett is thought to be the only Black college with Women’s Studies.” Any student above the fresh man level may register for a mini-course providing it does not cause an overload of semester hours. (1) Women’s Liberation in The ological perspective (Wom en in Church and Society) —Dr. Helen Trobian, in structor (2) Black W'omen in the Social Services—Mrs. Julia Stan- back, visiting instructor (3) Black Women in Literature: Poetry and Prose — Miss Georgie Latimer, instructor (4) Contemporary Short Stories by and about Women—Dr. Virginia Tucker, instructor (5) Assertiveness Training for Women—Mrs. Julia Ander son, instructor Bennett Belle Trio Attends UNC-G Internship Program by Faye Howard Three Bennett College students, Sherry Fuller, Faye Howard, and Nancy Dolfinger, were among the fifteen interns selected under the UNC-G Political Science Intern ship Program for the summer of 1976. Sherry, a senior sociology major from Asheville, N. C., interned as a research assistant at the Trans portation Institute located on the Belles remind elderly to vofe. photo by Diane Stevens Students Involved in Lee Campaign campus of A&T State University. She assisted in planning and or ganizing the First National Rural Conference. Under scheduled deadlines, she was responsible for writing brief reports and summaries related to urban and rural public transpor tation. By researching and organ izing data from primary and sec ondary sources, she was able to evaluate and to provide sugges tions to the researchers who studied actual sites of transporta tion problems. Among transportation problems, she noted the difficulties in pro viding transportation for the elderly and the handicapped and the inadequate transportation pro vided by the inter-transit city dur ing the peak hours. Assigned at Congressman Rich ardson Preyer’s Greensboro dis trict office, Faye Howard, a senior political science major, defined her duties and responsibilities as being the same as the objectives of the Greensboro district office— serving the congressman by being that crucial link between the con stituents of his district and his Washington office and answering the concerns, requests, problems, and opinions of the constituents or bringing their problems to the immediate attention of the con gressman. Faye, a native of Farmville, N. C., was not given a prescribed or exact way of dealing with con stituent problems; rather, she was given flexibility to use her own initiative and to add her own per sonality to her work. Faye feels that the summer experience was valuable in assessing “the direc tion of one’s political career. It served to develop an awareness of the benefits that could accrue from the utilization of the many community resources. It was ilie opportunity to assess and to cul tivate one’s personal resources — those skills, assets, and charac teristics that a person has prior to a professional role,” Nancy, a senior sociology major, was the intern of the YMCA. Teaching Exam Given Students that have completed their teacher preparation pro grams are eligible to take the National Teacher Examination.

(Continued from Page 1) Lewis, director of the Voter Edu cation Project in Atlanta, who served as the keynote speaker for the rally. “We fought long and hard for the right to register and vote. Now seven and a half mil lion blacks have not registered,” stated Lewis. Not only did Belles campaign for Leo, but they also helped on voting day by carrying people to the polls and baby-sitting while they went to the polls. Even though Bennett students worked so hard for a losing cause, many are eager to participate in other worthwhile campaigns. Many of the campaigners were from states other than North Carolina. “Because he was the first ciual- ified black man to run for such a high office, I wanted to help him. I'm very sorry he lost, but I hope more students will organize and support future qualified can didates,” stated Audrey Deleston from Charleston, South Carolina. Lisa Greene, Greensboro, said, “Dean Bragg’s inspiring speech during choir rehearsal made me work. It was an interesting ex perience.” WE STOCK BIKES FOR THE ENTIRE FAMILY.
