If We re What We Eat
Then What Are We?
Calendar

Wondering About tiie Food?
Everytime you walk into the
B.C. cafeteria - be it breakfast,
lunch or dinner - you are certain
to hear a complaint about the
food served, the (sometimes
found) dirty silverware or the
absence of ashtrays.
Feeling there was a need for
some explanation, I went to Mr.
John Wells, the manager, for
some answers. Mr. Wells told me
that they buy their food from
p Y.A. — a large distributor in
N.C.
When it comes to the quality of
the food, Mr. Wells told me that
all meats are U.S. choice or
better. All beef is of an 80/20
(meat/fat) content. The chicken
is also of top grade. The breads
are delivered daily. All cakes,
puddings (with the exception of
lemon) and rolls are all made
from scratch. The only canned
vegetables they serve are the
small whole potatoes and the
green beans.
The beef, if there is a quantity
left over at dinner time, is ground
up, frozen, and then used in a
recipe when ground beef is called
for (along with fresh beef). When
there is a quantity of chicken left,
it is pulled off the bone and used
for chicken salad. Any vegetables
left over from lunch, if there is a
quanity of a particular one, is run
off at dinner. If breads are left
over, they cannot be used the
next day; so, they are made into
bread crumbs. So, the bread you
get at the counter is not stale - it’s
just that sometimes, Mr. Wells
says, it is left too close to an oven
in the back and it may start to dry
out.
The menus are constantly
being worked on and changed
around. Foods like the “Cheese
Strata”, that received so many
complaints, is now only served
once in a three week cycle.
There is no dietician on staff.
so, the menus are sent to a
regional dietician in Atlanta for
her approval or corrections. Her
suggestions are followed.
Mr. Wells took over the
managerial position here in
October of 1979. He was at
Clemson and before there at
Elon. He once worked in a meat
distribution plant, so he is very
aware of the grade and quality of
meats.
Mr. Wells would like the
students to know that, “If anyone
has any complaints, or com
pliments, please bring them to
me. I’m always ready to receive
your comments.”
And for all smokers, good
news! Tin ashtrays have already
been ordered for the tables and
are due in any day. Glass
ashtrays were put out last
semester, but it seems they never
made it through the meal...
Pat Terry Inspires
by Tex Vincent
Praise the Lord for a group so laid back in the love of
Jesus Christ. Wednesday, February 6, Brevard College
was part of a movement of the Spirit that encompassed
all that witnessed it.
The Pat Terry Group came and filled our hearts with
joy and convinced us of our need to share the Lord
boldly, but with a true and gentle Spirit.
From song to personal testimony each of the meni-
bers showed us that love overcomes all and that God s
grace is sufficient for all our needs.”
Also that evening the Lord led a few of our college
community to His side, with the prayer that these would
be strong enough to openly proclaim their faith. Praise,
Jesus for these few and may they have the strength to
share their faith.
It must be said, that this concert was part of the Life
and Culture Series. But more than that, this concert was
part of Life, and that life is found only in Jesus Christ.
By far this was the most moving and beneficial
concert of the year and let us continually praise the Lord
for His continued work on this campus.

Hear Our Cry
by Nivaldo Masson
While talking recently to
Martha Nolen, the organizer of
the cheerleader squad, financial
matters were discussed. The
squad has $500.00 for this year’s
operational budget. This money
is to cover gas and food to support
away games for soccer and
basketball season. There is no
money provided for uniforms.
“Uniforms are a necessity,”
Martha said. The total cost of the
uniforms was in excess of $470.00.
With a budget of $500.00, the cost
of the uniforms left nothing for
gas and food. The cheerleading
squad has raised $325.00 through
outside activities which included
selling tornados, candy sales, car
wash earnings, and donations.
Most of the squad members are
having to carry an eighteen hour
plus class load, in addition to
their cheering duties and money
making activities.
The squad consisted of 16
members originally, but several
members were not able to handle
the pressure and several didn t
make the necessary grade point
average.
Presently, there are 12
members. Martha Nolen says of
her squad: “I cannot adequately
express my own personal pride
and admiration for the 6 sets of
cheerleaders I have left on the
squad.”

The greatest reward for the
squad is knowing that they are
the only two-year college squad
with male-female sets and best
cn the circuit.
Listen to “The Wall”
by Dewey Whitaker
“Dew’s Reviews” is a
critical review of albums,
movies, books, or anything
else I have a craving to tell
you about. This is purely
my opinion, and not
necessarily the opinion of
the CLARION staff.
Pink Floyd “The Wall”.
This is the only review I’m
doing this week, because I
have much to say about it.
The first thing I noticed
about this album was how
well it is produced. It has
to be the most organized
production Pink Floyd has
done since “Dark Side of
the Moon”.
The second thing I
noticed about the album
was the repetitious
reference to “The Wall.”
Is this their morbid
outlook on life, or just
satire on all the self-help
books? According to the
album, people are just
another brick in the wall of
life.
The third thing I noticed
about “The Wall” was the
stinging humor. Songs like
“In the Flesh” and
“Comfortably Numb” got
more than a snicker out of
me. The little quips in the
background contributed
greatly to this.
My overall opinion on
the album is that this is the
best album to come out in
quite a while. Listen to it,
but one must be in the
right frame of mind for it.
Misae—at Home in the States
by Alison Cooperman
Being in the United States and
speaking little English is surely
frightening for a Japanese
student, but at age 19, Misae
Tanaka from Tokyo,Japan is
handling the situation quite well.
Misae came to the United
States about a year and a half ago
to attend Brevard College.
Because of the tremendous
amount of money and distance,
Misae has not been home since
she came to the states; con
sequently, she stays with various
friends during the vacations and
summers. The reason why Misae
came to America was to learn the
English language and to become
better acquainted with the
American society. Misae
especially wants to comprehend
“how the American government
or people affect our society.”
As an education major, Misae
hopes to get a job teaching high
school students in her homeland.
She feels her ability to speak
English probably will give her an
advantage in aquiring a job upon
returning home.
Misae believes that the foreign
students here at B.C. are taken
good care of because of the
“special programs for foreign
students” which entails
specialized courses in English,
history, religion, political,
science, and sociology.
With not much spare time on
her hands, Misae’ finds time in
her busy schedule to play on the
girls volleyball team, to manage
the girls tennis team, and to
participate on the intramural
basketball team. She is also a big
sister which she enjoys a great
deal. To relax and get away from
the pressures of school, Misae’
spends time at the homes of
Coach Gail Anderson and
librarian Mrs. Healey.
