On Campus Fireside Chat Series to be Featured in the The Lance , ;L ■ A.>' sr!i ni Mary Griggs The first two meetings in the Fireside Chat series dealt with the concerns of students about the abusive use of alcohol on campus. Fran Munnerlyn (SA class of 86), a clinical counselor from Ben- netsville, covered ways in which con cerned students could help their friends who exhibit the signs of alcoholism. The purpose of the group is to educate and inform students about issues that are of interest to them. Topics under consid eration for the spring meetings are AIDS, Bulemia, Sexual Harrassment, and Drug Abuse. Campus Chaplain Shirley Arnold believes that when students become aware of these explosive topics they will stop contributing to the spread of misinforma tion. "The essence for me is to achieve a relaxed aunosphere in order to share concerns and provide avenues for help. Once we are concisions of what is going on in the world around us, we will be able to respond in a nonjudgmental way," she says. John Wheeler, a member of the steering committee, wants to see more students becoming aware of the problems of drug and alcohol abuse. "I want to get organ ized to let people know exactly what the problem is and where they can go for help," he says. "They are not alone with their problems." He believes that the series will provide a forum where those students with specific concerns can perhaps form their own local chapters to deal with things of interest to them. The next meeting is scheduled for February 13 at which time they will set the spring agenda. They plan to meet every other week. For more information on how to get involved, contact Shirley Arnold.
