CAMPUS LIFE
SGA Report
The eighth meeting of the Stu
dent Government Association Sen
ate met September 24 at 6:30. The
following matters were discussed.
In regard to old business, the fire
alarm systems were reportedly being
set off from the steam of the show-
eres in Concord - alarms may be
relocated. It was also mentioned that
security is slow to respond to the
alarms and an automatic paging
system may be installed in the fu
ture.
The residential committee re
ported about the paint policy. The
policy remains the same as last year
(must be approved by Student Life).
However, the request forms show no
indication of needing Student Life's
approval. There will be an investiga
tion concerning the possible veto
power of the Senate over Student
Life.
Also reported were "countertops"
in suite lounges. It was decided that
the structure itself does not promote
alcohol. The decision for counter-
tops has been left to the dorm coun
cils.
Alcohol beverage signs in the
suite lounges were mentioned by the
committee. The discussion pertained
to the promotion of alcohol. It was
discussed that there is a lack of spe
cific policy regulating these signs.
Therefore it can not be regulated
without a policy. "The administra
tion does not make policy; they are
there to administer policies. At St.
Andrews, the policies are made by
the students and faculty," saidDick
Prust.
The Senate discussed the posibil-
ity of changing campus quiet hours
from 1a.m.-9a.m. to2a.m.- 10a.m.
It was suggested to amend the Sal
tire to where there is no specific time
set, but instead is left up to the resi
dence halls.
The maintenance committee
reported no complaints. However,
they will check on a Winston-Salem
suite door.
The academic affairs committee
discussed the subject of social pro

bation. They would like to redefine
it to "social events." One possible
change is to exclude participating in
a sport in order to protect athletes
under schojau’ship.(also applies to
other scholarship holders). The
consistency must be mandatory when
punishment is enforced.
The environmental committee
will draft a letter concerning chemi
cals being used on cotton harvest
ing. They stated that they were in
vestigating plastic, glass, and paper
recycling.
The international committee
reported that the care packages to be
sent overseas is almost completed.
Saltires, a copy of the Lance, comic
strips. Winter Terms schedules, and
Senate notes or minutes are included
in the packages.
The internal committee moved to
strike Resident Assistant from p. 86
section D of the Saltire. The move
was approved. This policy will now
exclude RAs from participating in
fire drill inspections under the title
of Student Leader.
The paint policy is to be investi
gated further.
A point was made to change the
preamble of the St. Andrews to use
inclusive language.
Concerns in SAGA - smoking in
SAGA. It was suggested to hold an
open forum for all students. Senate
will take student suggestions before
deciding on a policy concerning this
matter.
Concerns in Highland - organiz
ing a disabled students' day. Abled
students will be assigned a disablility
for a day, hopefully it will raise the
consciousness on campus. Sugges
tions were that participants come
from the dorm councils. The spon
sorship of students will help raise
money for Highland.
New business - the pet policy.
General questions asked was simply
"Why?" The school must be in
spected by the North Carolina Health
Department and pass certain regula
tions.

New Bridge Club
Bridge, a card game that had been
steadily declining in popularity for
three decades, is making a come
back on college campuses all over
the United States. This year, the St.
Andrews Bridge Club took out a
charter, and is helping to revive inter
est in the "Queen of Strategy Card
Games."
Bridge has a long and distin
guished history in Western society.
Its roots can be traced to the game of
Whist, which first became popular
in the middle 18th century. (The
game of Whist itself descended from
the game of Tarot, with origins reach-
ing far back into the middle ages.)
During the 19th centry. Whist en
joyed an explosion in popularity
among the British aristrocracy. With
its reliance on strategic analysis,
quick action, and carefully masked
deception, it is credited by more
than one source as being partly re
sponsible for the tremendous suc
cess of British Imerperialism in the
19th century. The modem form of j
Whist, Contract Bridge, has been
popular throughout the Western*
world since the early 20th century, j
particularly in England, the United j
States, and Italy.
Although Bridge has a popular
reputation as being difficult to play,
it is not hard to learn, especially for
those who already play card games
like Hearts and Spades (Spades is
just a watered-down version of|
Bridge). True mastery of the game
depends on playing frequently and
developing a strategic sense, which
is similar to chess (although the rules
are not as difficult). Butunlikechess,
Bridge is a very sociable and funj
way to spend an afternoon or eve
ning, even if you aren't an expert. No j
special boards orpieces are required,
just a deck of cards and a group of |
people.
The St. Andrews Bridge Club iso
devoted to teaching people the funj]
of bridge, and is eager to teach any
one how to play. Events on the club’s|
agenda for this year include Bridge|
lessons for anyone interested. Bridge |
tournaments open to the commu-|
nity, and possible intercollegiate|
competition.
The Bridge Club meets every |
Sunday afternoon at 3:30 p.m. in|
Concord Lounge. All meetings are 5
open to the St. Andrews community,
and visitors are welcomed. If you!
would like more information about |
Bridge or the Bridge Club, contact|
the Acting Director, Hoke Ander-
son-Currie, in the Concord RD^
Apartment: ext. 480 or box 750.
