A new faculty advisor for the Phi Beta Lambda has also been elected.

Mary Ann Binns By Bob Yavner In this, the last in the series of interviews with stu dents from other countries, the Pilot staff talked to Mary Binns. Mary is from Devonshire, Bermuda, and will graduate in August. She heard about Gardner-Webb through Bruce Stewart, who heard of the college through some friends he made that live in Greensboro. “Gardner- Webb is the only school that I applied to.” Mary would like to work in a bank; somewhere where she can meet people. After graduating from high school, she worked for a year as a junior accountant, but she said it wasn’t for her. Mary likes the U.S. ex cept for the cold weather. She is used to the summer- like weather that stays with Bermuda year round. Bermuda is a British crown colony, therefore Mary is a British subject. “I didn’t realize how small Ber muda was until I left it.” Mary says that the small ness does not bother her and that she could live the rest of her life there. “Bermuda is like being in another world— it’s a place where someone can get away from things.” MARY ANN BINNS Mary says she went to a small high school where her graduation class numbered 30, and that all the high schools are small in Ber muda. The high schools are arranged according to the quality of the students and there is no real race problem. “A lot of people do not leave the island to get a col lege education, because many become educated through the inail, but a lot leave to broaden their in terests.” Mary left the is land to get a better educa tion, but would have stayed if she had liked her job. Mary says that the people of Bermuda come to the U.S. and Europe for their vaca tions. They go to travel in the wide open spaces, and to buy clothes because they are cheaper. “The cost of living is a lot higher in Bermuda.” She says that the island is a lovely place to visit if you can afford it. Mary’s hobbies include handcrafts and reading. She says that she has “two won derful parents.” Her father is the assistant chief engi neer at a hospital; he is in charge of the machine which run the hospital. She also has two brothers aged 20 and 17. A Bicentennial Day Revue PARTICIPANTS IN BICENTENNIAL DAY, HELD LAST WEDNESDAY, APRIL 28.
