Men Must Surrender ID’s in Jones Dorm By Cindy ( ox Brevard College male students who wish to visit a resident in Jones Dorm during weekends are now required to give their ID's to an attendant in the lobby, Dean Scarborough recently announc- cd Men who are not BC students are asked to leave a driver’s license and furnish the name and room number of the resident they wish to visit. Resident Tutors Charlotte Breed and Sherry Bowers say they are pleased with the out come of this new rule and wish to continue it throughout this semester. The tutors both agreed that the male participants of this three- week-old security procedure have been “especially kind and cooperative.”So far no one has refused to surrender his iden tification; therefore, state the tutors, no one has yet been turned away. When the program was first put into effect, problems were ex pected. But the attitude and cooperation of the student body has been quite positive, accor ding to the tutors. Charlotte and Sherry say that the program not only secures the building, but also aids in the prevention of vandaHsm, noise, and point-giving. After talking with represen tatives from other colleges and universities, Sherry and Charlotte found Jones’ new security procedures to be the most lenient in comparison with other schools. Some schools employ a 24-hour security guard in the dorm lobby. Because of the apparent suc cess of these new procedures, campus officials are currently considering implementing them i n Beam Dorm. Sherry Bowers stated, “It’s not intended to cause people pro blems.” Allegedly, some Jobs Corp- smen and/or other town residents became unwelcomed guests in Jones during a recent weekend. According to a resident of Jones, four to six such visitors were escorted off campus by college guards. Campus officials implemented these new procedures in order to prevent unauthorized people from visiting Jones during the weekend. > 'A Volume 50 Friday, February 18, 1983 Brevard Cqllege Brevard, North Carolina 28712 Issue 7 Lecturer to Focus on Family By Regina Wortman A distinguished Purgason lec ture will be presented by Mrs. Nell Webb Mohney February 23, at 10:15 a.m. in Dunham Auditorium.
