Bass Parking Permits Needed by Becki Holder This year, students and em ployees are required to register their motor vehicles and have a current parking permit displayed, according to the office of the dean of Student Affairs. Both the students and the fac ulty members parking permits are five dollars for the academic year. If your car is only used for one week, you will have to pay the entire fee. Students can get their permits from the dean of Student Affairs. Employees can secure their per mits from the Business Office. Proceeds will cover expenses for maintaining parking areas. Plans went into effect October 1. Dean Harold Bragg placed spe cial emphasis on the fact that cars parked in unauthorized areas (particularly near the gym) are subject to being towed. Cars will be towed at the student’s expense. Motor vehicles have to be reg istered within 72 hrs., after the official beginning of classes for the year. If a vehicle is acquired during any part of any semester, it must be registered within 72 hours. An applicant must present (1) a valid driver’s license, (2) regis tration card, (3) name, address and policy number of the insur ance company in order to register motor vehicles. Eligibility for automobile permits, regulations, penalties for violations, etc. are listed in the “Campus Motor Ve hicle Regulations” booklet that can be picked up in the office of the dean of Student Affairs. Dr. Theodore K. Miller Asks Bennett Students, .. Are You Getting Your Money’s Worth?” by Wanda Johnson and Yolanda M. White Theodore K. Miller, co-author of the book “Future of Student Affairs,” led a workshop on stu dent development, sponsored by the Counseling Center, on Oct. 13. Dr. MiUer, an associate profes sor of education in the Depart ment of Counseling and Human Development services in the Col lege of Education at the Univer sity of Georgia, took as his topic, “Can Students Be Responsible for Their Own Education—Are You Getting Your Money’s Worth?” Dr. Miller’s presentation focus ed on the fact that students are not willing to relate to resources surrounding them within the com munity to broaden their knowl edge. He also discussed the fact that what one learns outside the class room is as valuable as what one learns inside the classroom. Out side experiences complement what is learned inside, he said. He noted the importance of be ing self-sufficient, being self- reliant and having a strong self- image. A test of self-assessment was handed out to those who at tended the workshop. Anita Taylor, a student person nel major, said that Dr. Miller’s presentation made her aware of education from the consumer’s point of view. Doris Davis, a counselor in Rey nolds Hall, feels that students can be responsible for their own edu cation and that it is up to the individual to put forth enough effort to obtain her money’s worth. Viola Hemphill, also a peer counselor, stressed the fact that there are services on campus that students neglect, such as the Counseling Center, which are geared toward aiding students to have a more fulfilling education. Dr. Miller, who is a graduate of the University of Florida, is the director of the student develop ment laboratory at the University of Georgia. BC Basketball Team Joins Marathon by Joyce A.

Volleyball Players Say Bad Attitudes Are Responsible for Team Losses by Wendy Robin Woods Anita Taylor, a junior student personnel services major from Salisbury, N. C. and a member of the Bennett College volleyball team, last week analyzed where the problem existed as far as the team’s losing streak is concerned. Anita said, “There are some members of the team who have bad attitudes. And there are very few people on the team who are serious about what they are doing. Also spirit is lacking with our team.” Another team member, Yolanda M. White, a freshman communi cations mass media major from Los Angeles, California said, “The attitudes are bad and people won’t listen for their own good. Lately we’ve been getting a little more spirited, but that should have started at the beginning of the season. The coach to me isn’t strict enough with all the players, and she very seldom sticks to her word.” Yolanda also commented, “Next season I hope the volleyball team comes in with spirit and sticks to gether throughout the season.” Bennett College Volleyball Teant- They Win Some, They Lose Some by Wendy Robin Woods Since Sept. 29 the Bennett Col lege volleyball team has lost seven games and won two.
