College Bowl a success by Celia Alves With hands in their chins, big frowns and lots of fun, the students of BC had their very first annual College Bowl on Wednes day, April 8. According to Jeff Rice, PTK’s vice- president, everything began when Dean Don Scarborough came up with the idea and bought the equipment. Then he in troduced the idea of having a college bowl to Meredith Walker, one of the faculty ad visors. “We had been planning it for about a month.” said Rice. Rice was responsible for putting the college bowl together, selecting the judges, and choosing a moderator. Brevard College’s “Vanna”—Andrea Ross— worked as the score-keeper. She said, “That was fun! I just think we ought to do it annually.” The College Bowl took place with four teams consisting of four members each and one alternate. The two finalists scored 275 and 270 ponts. April Woods, Russell Schlenker, Eric Klingensmith, and Alex Boyd formed the winning team. Associate Professor Ken Chamlee, con ducted the event by asking questions about history, spelling, literature, math, science, and general knowledge. The judges were Sarah Barnhill, Presi dent Billy Greer, and Preston Woodruff. Jeff Rice said, “For the first year it worked out pretty well. We would have lik ed to have had a bigger audience.” The winning team received a prize of $20. 10:00 a.m. 11:00 a.m. 7:00 p.m. 8:00 a.m. 12 noon 2:00 p.m. 1987 COMMENCEMENT ACTIVITIES SATURDAY, MAY 2. 1987 Alumni Brunch for Graduates ' Myers Dining Hall Rehearsal for Graduates Boshamer Gymnasium Candlelight Dinner Myers Dining Hall SUNDAY.

Many questions are raised when drugs are mentioned. One of the most talked about is drug testing. Testing for drugs takes place in most professional and major college sports as well as the Armed Forces. Does this mean that Brevarcl College should begin testing among its student? Members of the faculty disagree on the subject. Dean Don Scarborough said, “As Dean of Students I could support drug testing over the students.” Dean of the College Harry Langley said. ^!:.W fX ^ ^ Winners of the first College Bowl competition proudly pose with their winning score, clockwise from the bottom: Andrea Ross, Alex Boyd, Eric IClingensmith, April Woods, and Russ Schlenker. “I would be against testing everyone. There have to be some guidelines.” Most drug testing, however, is aimed at the athletes. BC Athletic Director Norm Witek said that the athletic department has been looking into drug testing, but it has not reached a conclusion. Most athletes are against drug testing because they say it is an invasion of privacy. Dean Scarborough, who is also the men’s soccer coach, said, “I have a reservation about certain athletes being segregated.” Witek said, “The idea is not to catch somebody but to help them begin rehabilitation. Persons on drugs will never realize it themsleves.” The ultimate goal with drug testing is to have a drug free society. Dean Scar borough says, “An institution of higher education has a direct responsibility to see that the institution is drug free.” Ronald Thigpen, a student athlete at BC, said,“It’s necessary for college athletes, but not for students.” If not just the athletes, then who should be tested? According to Dean Langley, “Anyone on an athletic scholarship, or anyone receiving federal aid (should be tested).” Langley also said that some system should be followed. Even he would resent random drug testing on everyone. As next year’s Athletic Director, Scar borough said, “I will have to look into it (drug testing).” He also said that it would be difficult for junior colleges in the future to avoid drug testing. Currently two schools in Region X use drug testing with the rest of the schools not far behind.
