College life for a band student started a week before the regular students come in. During this week the band practices from three to four times a day beginning at 6:00 A. M. and ending about 9:00 P. M. During these days the practices consist of mostly running and getting into shape because there is not much time for this during class days.

M. on Mon days, Wednesdays, and Fridays or else you might be in trouble. Elizabeth City State University Health Center has only one part-time doctor. Dr. J. A. Gill. Dr. Gill may only be part time but if it’s any comfort he is on call 24 hours a day. In case you can’t get the doctor then you can be taken care of by the staff. The staff consists of one registered nurse, three nurse’s aides, and one or derly. The infirmary has 14 beds. During such periods as the flu season, the inJBrmary has been known to hold 30 or more people. Medicines are free except for special medications. The Family Planning Clinic is held between the hours of 2- 4 every second Thursday of the month at the health center. The clinic will set up another day out of the month if it becomes necessary. Now to the important question. How many of us are fully covered in case something happens? Who would have to pay the hospital bill if it ever came to that? The answer lies in those who have illness coverage and those who don’t. All students are included in our $1,000 Blanket Accident Program and the premium for this insurance is paid by Elizabeth City State University. In addition to this accident program, illness coverage is available on a waiver basis. This ylan BTOvides, in addition ti» ac cident coverage, protection from the expense of more costly illness requiring hospital care. Reim bursement will be made up to $1,000.00 for each accident. It makes no difference whether the accident occurs af school, at home or while traveling or participating in sports. Payipent will be made for resulting medical expenses incurred within 52 weeks aft^ the date of an accidental bodily injury. Mrs. K. S. Wamack, a registered nurse summed it up best when she told me ihat “All students are insured for accident, but all students are not fully .insured for other ailments.”
