You’ll never find our student
of this week with a ft^own on
her face. In fact, very often
you’ll find her laughing loudly
at something that has happened
or maybe even at herself. l>eb-
by Peterson is undoubtedly one
of the happiest people around,
and is always ready with a smile
and kind word to everyone.
“Stick’* as she is more com
monly known, came to Brevard
from Lakeland, Fla., because
she wanted to JFlnd a junior col
lege in the mountains which
she really loves.
She originally intended to ma
jor in secretarial science, but
she has now decided to major
in elementary education. Next
year she may work for the first
semester; then spring semester
she will commute to either Flor
ida Southern or the University
of South Florida. After gradua
tion, she plans to teach.
“Stick” is a memiber of the
Mnemosynean Society, and she
also is at member of the Girls
All-Star basketball team. Sh®
likes all sports and is an ei»-
thusiastic participant in all ip-
tramttral games. Swimming is
one of her favorite sports, and
she also likes to sew.
Commenting on Brevard,
“Stick” says that she lifces the
smallness of the college and
the kids. She feels that Brevard
is in a most beautiful area, and
she loves Pisgah Forest. When
feeling down, sh® just looks at
the mountains, and it makes
her feel better. She hates to see
people sad because of others.
“I suppose by name fits me
perfectly except no one at home
calls me “Stick” and no one
here calls me “Debby.” A prac
tical joker, “Stick” loves rough-
housing, particularly water-
fights.
Brevard College is lucky to
have such an attractive and vi
vacious co-ed among her stud
ent body.
