TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 21. 1971 THE DECREE PAGES FKPM the cacUMR FILE Three New Professors 3V UJILL THOMSON Well, Gang, Pm back Into the swing of things, coming to you from the back of a menu at the Pizza Inn. It’s an unusual oc casion this time, something that happens once in a lifetime I guess you could say, or twice, or thrice . , . Seriously, this morning Iwas sitting in Convocation and I realized that we haven’t initiat ed our new Freshmen into the noble art offinding something to do during that one hour spance of time that can only be called a meeting because everybody is in the same place at the same time, So I thought I would pub lish a list for those of you who don’t have the presence of mind to get stone before you go. First, the easiest thing to do is homework, studying, writing letters and the like. Last year, quite a bit of cash changed hands in the floating crap game under the bleachers. There’s roulette occasionally Ixit the wheel makes a lot of noise. The top bleachers offer 7 card stud and Pinochle, and when you hand in those cards you should hang around later for the lot tery. Or if you can’t get in on the usual stuff, you can play “pass it on” (or “pass it a- round,”) These are just a few ideas I thought I’d throw out. The big thing is making things up, interesting and beneficial, which is the aim of convoca tions. And should convocations get interesting, as I trust Mr. Jones will make it, you could listen to that. Three Faculty Members Chosen For Annual Award NEW BUREAU—Three mem bers of the N. C. Wesleyan College faculty have been na med to the 1971 edition of “Out standing Educators of Ameri ca”: Dr. Jack E. Teagarden, chairman of the Humanities Di vision; Dr. Arch W. Sharer, chairman of the Sciences Divi sion; and Dr. Raymond E. Bau er, director of summer ses sion and also director of ath letics. “Outstanding Educators of America” is an annual awards program honoring distinguish ed men and women for their ex ceptional service, achieve ments, and leadership in the field of education. Selections are made on the basis of an edu cator’s talents in the class room, contributions to re search, administrative abilit ies, civic service and profes sional achievements. Both Dr. Sharer and Dr, Bauer joined the faculty herein 1960, the year N. C. Wesleyan opened. Dr. Sharer, a profes sor of biology, is active in the Rocky Mount Children’s Mus eum and the local chapter of ECOS, Inc. Dr. Bauer, a professor of education, is past president of the Dixie Intercollegiate Athle tic Conference, which he helped organize in 1961. His re search interests and teaching specialities include education and physical education. Dr. Teagarden joined the Wesleyan faculty in 1962, and is a professor of English. His teaching specialities include Shakespeare, Milton, En glish Renaissance and liter ature. Drs. Bauer, Teagarden and Sharer all hold memberships in several prestigious profession al and honorary fraternities and have been recognized for their research and contribu tions in the field of education. Draft Director Tarr (Continued From Page 1) term. “If called while en rolled, they will be allowed to postpone their induction until the end of the semester, or term. If in their last aca demic year, they will be able to postpone their induction until after graduation.” Dr. Tarr advised Incoming freshmen and students who started their program of study in the summer of 1971 or later not to file applications for student deferments even though the current law authorizes granting deferments to students in full-time programs of study. “If the pending Selective Ser vice legislation does not pass,” Tarr said, “It would not be in a registrant’s best interest to obtain a student deferment which would extend his liability until age 35. Should Congress change the legislation to pro vide for deferments for new in coming freshmen, which is most unlikely, applications for de ferments will not be jeopardiz ed by delaying their submis sion until after passage of the new law.” The President’s authority for the induction of all men under 35, except for those who have or who have had defer ments, expired on June 30, 1971. If Congress does not reinstate the general induction authority, the President could authorize the induction of those regis trants who hold or have held deferments. In this unlikely event. Selective Service offi cials believe that manpower re quirements of the Department of Defense probably could be met by inducting those young men^who have recently dropped deferments because they gra duated, dropped out of school, or changed their occupations. Recent college graduates or dropouts would make up the bulk of inductions, the offi cials said. Ed. Note: We strongly urge each student to consider the advice herein in light of his own educational goals and his plans for the forseeable future. (Continued From Page 1) lege, and very interested in a college over a university be cause he would rather work with undergraduates than gra duates. His approach to teaching is ‘Jonesian,’ The course of study for what he is teaching is de termined by him. l^e does not like a straight lecture and en joys and encourages discus sion with the students. He says that his classes are ‘not a one man show.’ He is ‘a learner among other learners.’ One of Wesleyan’s new pro fessors this fall is Garry M. Swing of Rising Sun, Maryland. As the junior member of the Economics Department, Mr. E- wing teaches managereal fi nance, principles of accounting, and price theory. He was gra duated from Wesleyan in 1968. After being awarded a B.A. de gree In history and economics here at Wesleyan, Mr. Ewing then entered graduate study. He transferred to the College of William and Mary, Williams burg, Virginia and received a M.B.A. degree in August of 1970. Being the first alumnus to be employed as a full-time faculty member, Mr. Ewingsaid that he is looking forward to seeing the college from a tea cher’s viewpoint rather than that of a student. He added that he came back to Wesley an because he thought a teach ing position here Is a good op portunity. In describing the objective of his course, Mr, Ewing stated that he wants his students to gain a knowledge of the information presented and the ability to use this Information In analysis and problem solving. One of his ap proaches in teaching he de scribed was in managerial fi nance. Mr. Ewing uses the case method in this class. It re quires a student to take a rea listic situation and make use of the theorltical and analysis tools in the text book and to de fine it completely. The student is also required to give a prac tical solution to the problem. Mr. Ewing alsowants maximum student participation in all of his classes.

EXT. 446-7292 h ms3m BV TOM Everyone will have one; that big summer, that vacation —play period that is thought about for so long. Me and Roper thought out last summer. We planned that big apartment thing. And we made it. We both got good jobs and a nice place to live and we went to it. The object: be happy, raise a little hell, relax. But somewhere along the trail things got in the way. Rent. Cooking. Cleaning up. And sometimes when you want to be crazy you’ve got to be serious. And some nights when Pd want to sit around in my underwear ol’ Rope would bring over a date and so Pd have to dress. Also, when we’d have a party the baby upstairs would always be sick and we’d have to quiet down. Speaking of upstairs , . . the walls and ceilings at our place were paper thin, but had they been six feet of concrete we could have heard Tarzan and Jane upstairs. The way I fi gure It they were making a mo vie and were forever filming the elephant stampede. What it was . . . what it had to be for me . . , and what it will be for everyone once they have it is bittersweet. Bit tersweet because for all the good times and for all the empty cans and bottles and for all the fun money we all come out dif ferent. Me, Rope and Koz . . . and most of the people around us. We changed. Sometimes not because we wanted to and not conclously, but we changed. And it might be cold here this winter, because it was a hot Summer of ’71. It might be real cold. We’re all got that icy heart syndrome.- And when you have that Summer of ’71, when you start out like a king and watch that castle crumble you’ll know you built on sand. That makes for cold winters. Home is hard to go back to, and it’s all different; the peo ple, the places, the things. Especially the people.
