CBS News Analyst Roger Mudd
during a lecture he presented
6t Campbell College, February

listen.
“The youmg people, Just gen

he continued. “TheyVe grown
up in security, comfort, and
warmth, and they no longer
need to worry albout being fed,
struggling like young people
did in the twenties, and th^
main interest is something else.
It’s morality and it’s honesty
and what you do with your
country, rather than what you
do with yourself.

E. Wannamaker Hardin,
Chairman of the Presidential
Council, commented prior to
the reports’ presentation:
“'Last fall, the Presidential
Council took on a bold, new
venture. We decided to let the
faculty and the students set
their own standards.”
The Presidential Council
created the two eight - mem
ber committees in a meeting in
mid - fall. The Presidential
Council and the Student Gov
ernment Association each ap
pointed two faculty members
and two students for the two
committees.
“We express our thanks to
the committees for their work,”
concluded Mr. Hardin, “and
recognize that they did take
their tasks seriously.”
Mr. Setzer proposed the re
port of the Committee on At
tendance and Penalties by out
lining the two-fold policies of
the report. The first proposal,
Section I of the report, deals
with “an abolishment and an
improvement” of the present
chapel and lyceum programs.
The two types of programs
would be merged with a mini
mum of fifteen each semester.
A student must attend twelve
of the fifteen pro^-ams each se
mester suggested further by
the report. “The reasons for this
are twofold,” explained Mr.
Setzer. “First, this will provide
for a greater latitude of events.
Secondly, it is the belief of the
college and the committee that
those who graduate from Bre
vard College should have more
learning than that obtained
from books, labortory prac

SNEA Attends
State Meeting
Five Brevard College stud
ents attended the Student North
Carolina Education Association
Convention in Charlotte last
week. They were Betty Kirk
man, Carol Kupferer, Gloria
Locklear, Sharon Rhoades and
Beth Rowe.
The SNCEA Convention was
part of the larger North Caro
lina Education Association Con
vention. All meetings of the
SNCEA were held in the Bar
ringer Inn.
Speeches were made by
George Cursey, vice - president
of the Student National Educa
tion Association, and Dr. Craig
Phillips, newly - elec'ed North
Carolina Superintendent.
Following a speech by Dr
Phillips, the North Carolina
School of the Arts presented a
program of orchestral music,
drama, and dance.
tices, etc.”
The second part of the re
port, Section 2, outlined an at
tendance policy. Under the
present attendance policy, qual
ity points are deducted for
class absences.
“It is to be understood,” stat
ed Mr. Setzer, “that deduction
of q-p’s is not to be tolerated.”
In support of this, Mr, Setzer
explained that under the pro
posal of the committee, each di
vision of academics at Brevard
College shall establish the ap
propriate penalties for ab
sences. In addition, each stud
ent of regular academic stand
ing shall be entitled to three
unexcused absences in the
three hour courses which meet
three times a week.
Mr. David Holcombe propos
ed the report of the Commit
tee on Social Behavior. In his
initial comment, the committee
chairman stated, “This report
recognizes two separate points.
“The first point it recognizes,”
he proceeded, “is that students
are men and women. The sec
ond point it recognizes it that
students are not men and wo
men.”
Mr. Holcombe clarified his
statement by stating that al
though students are ideally
men and women, they are ac
tually men and women, they
are actually not.
“This is the reason for our
proposed counseling system and
believe me, counseling is a
heck of a lot different from be
ing punished,” he further com
mented.
The report covers all facets
of college social life and pro
poses several radical chaniges.
Among the changes suggested
are;
1. AN EMPHATIC REGULA
TING TO UNAUTHORIZED
EINTRANCE OF DORMITORY
ROOMS. The report proposes
that no one may enter a room
without asking permission of
the occupant, except in the
case of room inspection, legi
timate search, fire, other emer
gency.
2. A PROPOSED PROGRAM
OF AN ANSWERING SERVICE
ESTABLISHED THROUGH THE
OFFICE OF THE FINANCIAL
AID OFFICER. Thus, drafting
students to work as receptionist
in the parlor is prohibited.
However, money for the grant-
in-aid is not yet available.
3. ABOLITION OF THE
PRESENT HALL PROCTOR-
HOUSE COUNCIL SYSTFJW OF
DORMITORY GOVEiRNlfENT.
A system of Dormitory Counse
lors, one for each dorm floor,
is proposed by the report.
