Performer What better excuse can one haive for cuittinig classes at Bre vard Coltege than that of at tending the 1968 Olympics held recently in Mexico City? And to add even roO're luster to the exicuse is to attend as a member of the 1968 United States tean:. This was the plea that was presented to the administration office recently when one of the BC coeds was selected to go on the trip. Luckily for Sherry Keeter, the admindstration glad ly coo-perated and Sherry was off for an all - expense paid jaunit to Mexico and the Olym pics. But. it is haird to view Sherry running a mile, throwing the javelin, or swimming frantical ly up and down a pool as you see her stepping lightly, with a quick, flashing smile ond bounc ing brown hair, across tihe Bre vard campus. Sherry was a member of a new phase of the Olympics, culture. She is a mem ber of the Blue Ridge Mouotain Dancers which were among sev eral performances that repre sented the United States in the new branch. ThUiS, the S.njow White dream became a reality for Sherry, and she was dancing her way to the capital of a foreign coun try and was a member of the 1988 Olympics. HELEN WRIGHT is shown in one of her many activities as she publicizes the Appalachian Folk Festival. Helen is an active sophomore and this week’s Student of the Week.

U ^ii/e Uiews At the suggestion of their instructor, Mrs. ro, the Secretarial Science 29 students submitte , in a letter to Dr. Phili'p Shore, Chairman of the Pres idential Committee, characteristics that they believe Brevard College’s next president should possess. Mrs. Munro would like to share some excerpts trom these papers with the student body. >!«**** “This man will dedicate himself to Brevard, to the administration, to the faculty, to the students, and to the church. He will realize that his worK i a duty, but he will not look at it in this respert. rie will want to help students wdth problems, aim he wi give honest opinions because he is unselfish, una^- standing, and kind. Yet, he will be truly realisti and straightforward in doing so.” ***** “. . . To meet the demands of an expanding school, this man should be conservative, yet libera minded. He should be able to fortell what Brevard College will be like ten years from now so that ne can work toward making these plans possible. * * * * ♦ . . he should know people and be able to un derstand them. He should have concern for moral and spiritual values in himself as well as in others. ***** . .he must be able to acce'pt grave responsibili ties and be ready at all times for the ’ This man must have an open mind. Life win c a g from year to year, and, he must be willing to a?ce_^ the new trends. He must listen to those around nim and strive to see their point of vi'ew.” The grO'Uip arrived in Mexico on October 5, and the dancers .stayed in the Villa Coaroa, an apartment house built especiai- ly for performers from all over the world that would be part:c- ipaiting in the cultural end of the Olymipics. Helen Wrighit, a home eco nomics major from Clemson, S. C., is this week’s Student of the week. During her year and a half at Brevard, Helen has been very active on many co'mmittees. Last year she served as chairmaiii of decorations for ithe Spring Danee and worked on decora tions for the Christmas Dance. She was also a member of House Council and was a hall proctor. This year, Helen has been very busy as chairman of the decorations for the Homecoming Dance and puMiicity agent for the Appalacihian Mountain Fes tival. She is a memiber of the Eu- terps and S.N.E.A. She likes children, so to fulMill the in- tereisit, she tutors first and set- cond grade physical education at Brevard Elementary School during the week. When in high school, she lik ed to clog and square danc®. According to Helen, “There’s good exercise and lots of fun in dancing. It’s somethinig differ ent.” Helen likes to cook and at tend track meets. Last year, she was a constant sipectator at the meets. As for plans for the fu ture, Helen plans to continue her education and possibly teach when she graduates. Sherry a'Lso made many friends in Mexico. “Oh, the peo pie are really wonderful. I have never met anyone like them,” she said, with a slight gleam in her light blue eye?. “They are the friendliest peo ple I’ve ever met.” Sherry cited several cases In which the people of Mexico went out of their way to make the visitors feel ri^t at home. Practice for the Blue Ridge Mountain Dancers was a little rougher than usual, due to the higher climate. After dandiing during the Olympics, the group leift Mexico on Odtoiber 17 and returned to the United States, group did not return srtraight home, but stopped and put on a show in St. Louis, Mo. Sherry is back on the BC camipuis now, and she fits right ■n wiirth the other students. To look at her, it would be hard to imagine her an Oiymipic star, but Sherry will never forget her little trip.
