Andrews CoUege will host a
three day Southern Voices
Festival on its Laurinburg,
North Carolina campus. The
festival will focus on
“Southern Voices,” a new
human rights oriented
magazine published in Atlanta
by the Southern Regional
Council. A number of people
associated with the new
magazine will be on campus
for the series of workshops
lectures, exhibits, and poetry
readings that will take place
during the festival.
Among the guests appearing
will be Pat Walters, editor of
the magazine. Will Campbell,
the colorful Southern Baptist
preacher, and Charles
Morgan. Featured in a cover
story in a recent issue of
“Souther Voices,” Mr.
Morgan founded the American
avU Liberties Union office in
Atlanta, defended numerous
civil rights cases and gain^
national recognition for his
defense of Mohammed Ali and
Captain Howard Levi. More
recently he spent a year
traveling across the nation
building the A.C.L.U. case for
Courses Called ^^Creations
. Without - Effort”
Pre- pre-registration Held
Dear Editor:
It is not surprising to note
that the courses offered at St.
Andrews this winter term are
guilty of some unquestionable
shortcomings. These are shor
tcomings that present them
selves in the form of being
limited and inflexible.
What one sees when he
examines the catalogue is a
selection of courses that prove
to be “creations-without-
effort” courses which provide
little meaning and stimulation
for the student who feels that
staying on campus during
winer term is also a vital part
of the total construct of the
educational process.
What one also finds are
courses which offer a lot of
glamour, excitement, and a
thrill a minute off-campus,
with hardly any educational
merits stressed at all.
In order to be meaingful, St.
Andrews must provide a com
plete, well-rounded education
which has all the stimulating
components to make it a lear
ning expedition rather than a
walk through a pseudo-tourist
agency. This “ad man” men
tality is threatening the
delicate fibers that make St.
Andrews a learning instituion.
And, if the college continues to
allow this “must sell” type of
mentality to exist in relation
to its on-campus course
curriculm, then the students
on-campus during winter term
have no other choice but to for
mulate a consumer or “must
buy” mentality in order to sur
vive. And as consumers ot an
education j,we have the right to
demand ijuality not only of the
on-campus winter term cour
ses but of the total educational
process as well.
We realize that in the past
there has been little need to
formulate courses that
patronized the on-campus win
ter term students because
they were few. But as our
number has increased, our
demands, desires, and ex
pectations collectively have
increased. We demand, expect
and desire an educational op
portunity that is complete,
qualitative, and bears
relevance to our existence at
St. Andrews during winter
term as well as the fall and
spring semesters.
In effect, as Blacks we are
demanding a complete
educational opportunity which
takes into consideration the
roles and values of the Black
people on campus, along with
the relevance of their position
in society. We are demanding
lliat the faculty obtain more of
the necessary training,
knowledge and skills that will
enable ttem to convey the
type of education that is
desired and deserved.
As students we are deman
ding an education with the
highest degree of quality St.
Andrews has to offer. And if
for some reason a particular
department is unable to
respond to these demands,
then we feel that this failure
should be taken as an in
dication of obsolence, and that
particular department should
be re-organized. For, without
creativity, innovativeness and
flexibility, that department
can no longer survive at St.
Andrews.
