Page 2, THE PILOT, Wednesday, January 24,1973 Now —More Than Ever Before NOW IS THE TIME to prepare for the spring election of Student Government leaders. Election day is not until April but now is the time to begin planning and campaigning. The present executive council has shown what effective contact, cooperation, and communication can accomplish. The SGA has become a respected and active student power on Gardner-Webb’s campus. The strives and advances of this year have not gone unnoticed and will even be more evi dent in the years to come. There will be six elected officers for next year and these six will be responsible for carrying through and permanent ly establishing this years’ renovations and achievements—they will build for the future. Now is the time to look around for the “right” six people to fill the shoes of this year’s executive council. Let’s support our officers for the rest of this year. With Spring Jubilee and graduation the best part of this year is yet to come; but let’s start searching for some able candi dates to carry through next year. “Now is the time for aU good men to come to the aid of their country.” The point is NOW IS THE TIME... Boredom—The plight Of Man Boredom is the plague and incurable cancer of the twen tieth century. It is not simply a small-Baptist-liberal arts coUege-phenomenon but a universal malignancy. “Nothing to do” is the slogan of the seventies. The problem is not literally that there is nothing to do but that man is bored with life’s dilemma. A sniper stands on a rooftop killing the people below because he is bored; a stu dent is looking for excitement when he turns to drugs and alcohol; hijacking is becoming a popular pastime; and the rate of attempted suicide is contagiously increasing because of man’s listlessness. There seems to be nothing else to do and the thrill an,d challenge of doing something illegal and untraditional becomes a necessary remedy. When boredom sets in, life becomes a dead end. Where does the fault lie? What is the cause of mass boredom? Is there a cure? And most important is the question: What is the cure? The answer to these questions will reveal the blight of man. Boredom hosts apathy and hate and will eventually be man’s greatest incurable disease. WARNING: Boredom is hazarderous to your health and your sanity.

We realize that this meant extra work on the staff, but in order to shorten the lines and better satisfy the students it is once again in operation. It is co-operation like this that makes Gardner-Webb a unique col lege. After having listened to us and seeing the conflict that was at hand the staff was willing to work a little harder. Therefore, we would like to say thank you. Thanks, John Fowler Ann Crump Bidgie Buchanon Alpha-Nu-Omega is the campus Inter-Club-Council and is com posed of the presidents of all clubs and organizations. Mr. Tom Pos ton stated that the council is the “right arm of the SGA.” The purpose of the Inter-Club- Council as stated in the constitu tion is to unify all campus activities so that there will be greater stu dent participation, to further co ordinate campus activities, and to promote interest and progressive participation of inactive organiza tions. Alpha-Nu-Omega serves as a council to co-ordinate the schedule of organizational meetings and activities, and as a means to facili tate communication among all or ganizations on campus. The council meets the second and fourth Thursday of every month. Any recognized club on campus is approved by a majority of vote by the ANO-ICC and the Student Life Committee and Executive Committee of Gardner- Webb. Any club that fails to com ply with the procedures and guide lines may be placed on probation for aa period of one semester. Neg ligence in attending the meetings is also reason for probationary action. One important function of the ANO-ICC concerns fund raising on campus. Any organization that is an approved campus club and wishes to endeavor in a money making project receives permission through submitting the proper forms to the ANO-ICC If the coun cil approves the endeavor then the request is submitted to the Student Life Committee for final approval. The request for any fund-raising proposal is first submitted to the Inter-Club Council who has the power to grant or deny permission. Alpha-Nu-bmega ^so functions in the preparation of the college calendar Usting regular club meet ings and events. Club presidents meet together and this prevents the scheduling of two or more cam pus activities and in preparing an accurate calendar of campus events and individual club activities. Alpha-Nu-Omega is a channel to determine the relevance of a club and will serve as an agency to eli minate the existence of clubs that have no proposed activities or pur- ose. The council will eliminate clubs that exist in the handbook but not in reality. Each club that is a mem ber of the council presents a consti tution except for the publications and class presidents. The advisor for the ANO-ICC is Mr. Tom Poston. There are thirty- four clubs and organizationns pres ently in existence on campus. The Chairman of Alpha-Nu-Omega is Bob Decker Jr., who represents the day Students. The other officers include Vice-Chairman Leland Kerr who represents BSU; the Secre tary is Samala High who rep resents the PILOT; and the Fin ancial Coordinator is James Dicky of the Young Republican Club.
