PAGE 2....C0MPASS....N0VEMBER, 1974 Dr. Eloise Horton, Vice ChanceUor for Student Affairs. S OiPARTMINI 01 HfMTM lIXfCATION AND 25 YEARS AGO 'THEr'W3ULD WAVE GIVEN US SOME ■SlfcrDUMB REASONS FOR NOT SMOKING 25 years ago the worst they could say was "Nice girls don't smoke" or "It'll stunt your growth." Now we know: Women who smoke are dying of lung cancer and other smoking-related diseases at twice the rate of women who don't. These days there's no such thing as a dumb reason for not smoking. “Positive Power” EDITORIALS Bigger And Better Things Brothers and Sisters, It has been written that Elizabeth City State University believes “that the essence of democracy is faith in the essential worth of each individ ual human being; that the foundation upon which a democracy rests is its schools; that the thorough preparation of teachers and other leaders, then, is the chief responsibility which must be assumed by a college.” If this then- is the conviction of this institution, it behooves each of us as students here to be equally convicted to be receptive of such preparation, to rise to meet the challenge when its practical application may not seem to meet its written declaration. Wherever there are excuses for excellence, we must reach down to the very roots of the Dear Students: It is my pleasure to welcome new students and greet returning students. We are looking forward to a great year with the whole University family working to gether for bigger and better things for Elizabeth City State University. I hope you will feel free to come to the Student Personnel Department with your pro blems or concerns. We, in Student Personnel Services, look forward to assisting you in the pursuit of your academic objective. It is my profound hope that the experiences and learnings that you acquire at Elizabeth City State University, will fashion the vehicle that can transport you on your itinerar ies to those lofty goals of personal fulfillment and useful and dynamic citizenship. Sincerely yours, Eloise B. Horton Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs An Ode To ECSU From Dust we’ve come to take our stand On Earth-this trusted and contemporary clan We’ve come in search for knowledge so gold And to thrust out inevitable facts we now hold No school has sent our ego as so That once we’ve started-the higher we go We aren’t troubled for our plans are clear For on this campus-we have no fear No fear of inequality, no fears of doubt We’re all a family and love is about. So ECSU with nobility-we praise your name so high Through thick and thin and clouds so low-our heads were to the sky For in Thee we have sought our goal to make it to the top And without Thee we’d have had no control and our future would be a flop For it was Thee who often helped us to make the right decisions Through thick and thin and clouds so low-in you we’ve gained Faye E. Smith Notice To Students Miss ECSU Alma Jenkins matter, this usually means starting with ourselves, and seek to correct the situation, not just for ourselves, but for our brothers and sisters yet unborn, for the survival of this and all predominantly bjack institutions. And with all our getting, let us be sure to get competence, without which we cannot progress. Lastly, let us love one another. Life does not afford us the time to grow and hate simultaneously, to aid and envy at once. The one will surely champion, and if it be less than love, it is like a weighted cannon on the leg of each of us. There is not time for superior ity/inferiority complexes. Each of us, in our way has an essence. God planned it that way. Let us seek to bring out that essence in each other, while expecting no less than each other’s best. That is all one can expect, that is all one can give...that is beautiful. Peace and Power, Alma F.

Facts From The Staff Dear Students, The Compass Staff is like any other organization in many respects, and like other organizations, we have to operate within a budget. Therefore, if the Compass is not published regularly, do not blame the staff. The lateness of our first issue is due to many factors. To go into detail would be too time consuming. However, if you are interested, wrtie your editor or come by the office. As editor, I commend my staff on their fine job. The staff is made up of volunteer workers. Most are new mem bers and many have had no experience in writing news articles. However, they are doing an excellent job. The staff work very hard at their job and would appreciate it if the students, faculty, administrators, and staff will do everything possible to make the job easier. Anyone having news to submit to the Compass should mail it to Box 143, Compass, or give it to any member of the Compass Staff. Office hours are from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The Compass Staff appreciates your cooperation. The Compass Staff hope every one’s midterm grades were what they deserved and what they wanted. However, if they were not, you know what you need to do. Now what Homecoming has passed, may be we as students, will buckle down and book it! The Compass Staff
