Freshmen Voice Their Opinion of State

VOL. XI, NO. 3
SGA ASSUMES DUTIES
The newly elected Student Government
Association took office July 1, 1973.
Leading this group of dynamic students-
is a young man from Philadelphia named
Charles ZollicofEer. ZolIicofTer is a junior,
sociology major, and is also an active
member of the Black Panther Party in
Winston-Salem. The other officers are:
Ray Knox, director of student affairs, a
senior from Winterville, N. C.; Junius T.
Hanley, Jr. a director of judicial affairs,
a senior from Philadelphia, Pa.; Carl J.
Gist director of financial affairs, a senior
from Rock Hill, S. C.; Larry Wilson,
director of social affairs, a junior from
Fayetteville, N. C.; Vivian McMillan
director of secretarial affairs, a senior
from Shannon; Travis Ragins a board of
trustees representative, a senior from
Winston-Salem, N. C.; Wanda J. Smith
board of trustees representative, a
senior from Goldsboro, N. C.; and Ava
V. Thomas, editor of THE NEWS
ARGUS, a senior from Navassa.
The SGA said it is ready and willing
to act in your behalf but you (the student
body) must give them your full support.
According to ZolIicofTer there are
many issues he plans to act upon,
many of which were on his campaign
platform. The main problems now are
the food in the dining hall and also
health care facilities.
He said, you can help him by giving
all support and cooperation to make
things around this institution better for
all students.
Recently Winston-Salem State Univer
sity has been overrun by more than 387
freshmen. Many had visited the campus
previously, however, an equal number
were seeing the campus for the first
time. Was it what they had expected?
Were they disappointed or were they
thrilled'’ Well, they were asked and this
is how some of them felt.
Pam Liles, a freshman secretarial
administration major from Durham,
N. C., found everything “okay” with the
exception of the women's dormitories
which she described as “bad”. Pam said,
“classes are nice along with the pro
fessors. My biggest complaint is the slick
guys on campus.”
A freshman from Newton, N. C., Phyllis
Battle, was “homesick at first” but soon
adjusted to college life. Miss Battle had
never visited the campus before and was
dissatisfied with the “shabby dorms and
unfriendly people.”
Linda Bogle, a native of Charlotte,
N. C., said, “my first impression of
State was bad, but it improved with
time.” She really likes the Hauser Stu
dent Union, describing it as “one of the
best I've seen anywhere.” However,
Linda does not like the general “un
organized nature of administrative pro
cedures.”
“WSSU is more like a high school
than a college,” said James Brown, a
freshman from Cleveland, Ohio. James
can not see why State does not have
“coed visitation like most other institu
tions.” He will not be able to choose his
desired major, psychology, because of
the “limited curriculum offered.”
Biology major, Halima Rahiman, from
New York came here expecting the
campus to be larger than it is, she says
because of its university status. She
complained of “sorry dorms and un
friendly matrons.” In general, however,
she was pleased with State and is en
joying her stay.
Many of the complaints received are
normal for freshmen and many are not.
No doubt many of their complaints will
be forgotten by many students, even
freshmen themselves, but The News
.\rgus won't. This year, freshmen, we
will not forget you.
The News Argus welcomes you and
wishes you a successful year.

Old Laundry Building Destroyed
According to Mr. .Alexander E. Barber,
laundry supervisor, the laundry was
erected around 1924. This was almost 50
years ago but of this nearly 50 years
Mr. Barber says he contributed 43 years
of service in the building.
When asked how he felt about the
demolition of the old cleaners, he
answered, “The building was old and
badly in need of extensive repairs. Also
a portion of the structure w'as in the
street. The machinery was obsolete and
there was inefficient help. After working
under such conditions for such a long
time and my thought of retirement in
the near future, I am afraid that I
welcomed it although I'll miss it.”
