PAGE 4....THE COMPASS....OCTOBER, 1973 Our Cafeteria Is Not All Bad You may have complained about the food in the cafeteria, but look what’s in store for some deserving vikings. It has been informed to all interested persons that the management of the Food Service Department is offering, in the form of a scholarship to four full time boarding Viking students, free boarding for one semester each. That’s right, absolute F-R-E-E. In return the Food Service is asking that the chosen students: 1. Must be in financial need 2. Must maintain a “C ” average 3. Must work in the cafeteria. Who is selecting the worthy students? None other than our own Cafeteria Manager and Business Office. The Food Service reserves the right to release, if chosen students do not live up to expectations. Now isn’t this a very nice jester from our cafeteria after we find so many faults. So tell me, “Is our cafeteria really that bad.” Art Exhibition Program III.

Music Is A Form Of Communication Music is transmitted in many forms and no matter what the form is, it always has a Social Science News Dr. Melvin L. Murphy, chairman of the Department of Social Sciences has announced the major objectives of the Social Science Department. These objectives are as follows: (1) to offer work leading to the Bachelor’s degree, (2) to provide students with experi ences which will enable them to live intelligently in group life, (3) to prepare students to interpret relationships between human activities and the natural environment, (4) to enable students to understand factors which shape world cultures, and (5) to help students understand better their own personalities and to identify ways in which Social Institutions can be improved through the contributions of the individual citizen. At this time, the department reaffirms its special responsi bility to provide students with an accurate picture of non white, as well as peoples in American Culture. This special responsibility will enable the University to rectify ommis- sions and distortions that have resulted and to adequately prepare students to deal with the myriad aspects of problems confronting America’s racial and cultural minorities and the society as a whole. message. On our campus it may come in the form of a solo, a duet, a band or choir. The most stimulating, however, is the University Choir and Viking Marching Band, it does not matter how many times they perform, they are always welcomed. The University Choir per forms for the University, community and other public affairs. Under the directorship of Miss Evelyn Johnson and assistant Mr. Wendell Wilson, our year will be quite successful. The choir is made up of a majority of freshmen students, but with the help of old members and the will powr of the new students, the choir will maintain its standards of fine performances. These freshmen students are commended for their interest and participation in the choir. Our officers this year are as follows: President, Butler Lew is, Secretary, Barbara Alston; Assistant Secretary, Alma Jenkins; Treasurer, Janieve McCrae; Custodian, David Rucker; and Librarian, Janna Clemmons. These leaders are to assist our directors and help the choir to tell the world in music that, “The Vikings are proud people.” Likewise, our Marching Vik ing Band performs with a message in mind. The March ing Vikings seem to let the people know that we are on the move. Under the directorship of Mr. Floyd L. Robinson, our band performs at football games, county fairs aqnd other public affairs. The performance of the band could be no less than superb under Mr. Robinson’s directions. When Marcus Newsome, Drum major takes possession of the band, we know that the band has begun its dynamic show. Rosemary Hollman, Arlinda Byrd, and Jackie Lewis, twirle their way right on the scene, and the majorettes, under the leadership of Diane Sharpe move into action. This is a sure sign that our band is moving with the latest steps and sounds. Appreciation of their performance is shown through loud applauses and shouts, and the Marching Vikings know, “it was a job well done.” Officers of the band are as follows: President, Leonard Deloatch: Vice-President, Bru no Slade; Secretary, Ruby Pulley and Treasurer, Mary Freeman. Audio-Tutorial Instructional System Is Coming To ECSU sponsors continuously - showr. art exhibitions (changed every five weeks) at the Albemarle Mental Health Center (Medical Building, Elliott Street and Colonial Avenue), Elizabeth City, North Carolina -- and year-long, continuously chang ing art exhibitions of works by ECSU students (usually chang ed every two to three weeks), at the Pasquotank-Camden Public Library (205 East Main Street), Elizabeth City, North Carolina In recent years, there have been many instructional inno vations in education; however, “none have received the widespread attention and use as that of the Audio-Tutorial (A-T) Instructional System,” according to Dr. Jimmy R. Jenkins, Assistant Academic Dean, and Director of the A-T program, which is scheduled to open on our campus second semester. Dr. Jenkins stated the necessity of such a system at ECSU, “With the increasing desire of the masses to acquire post-high school education, it has become increasingly im portant to design instructional materials and methodologies which meet both the needs of the individual, while meeting the existing criteria for promo tion at the post-high school level.” Dr. Jenkins explained that the justification for the existence of teachers, admini strators, school boards, or school buildings is to create an environment which assists you, the student to learn, he believes that the program which creates that environment should meet the following criteria: 1. Allow you to learn at your own rate. 2. Specify exactly what it is you should be able to do when you complete any unit of instruction. 3. Keep you constantly informed of your progress. 4. Reduce the possibility of failure. The main features of the A-T system are as follows: 1. The A-T system will be completely individualized 2. There will be no set class hours or days; the learning center will be open from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. daily, Monday through Friday. 3. Each student will be given objectives for the concepts to be learned. 4. Each student will be tested only when he or she feels that the objectives have been mastered. 5. This center, by using advanced lab assistants will provide an excellent internship program for science majors of the teacher education program. Dr. Jenkins commented, “In my many years of dealing with students, I have come to the conclusion that at certain levels almost all of the students at that level can accomplish the requisite materials of that level. The differences seem to show up not in ability, but in the individual different beha vior patterns of the students themselves.”
