Page Four THE CAMPUS ECHO Thursday, September 30, 1965 John L, Stewart Views Personnel Services Offered By John L. Stewart Acting Dean of Students GREETINGS £|nd best wishes to everyone for a successful academic year. The pilgrimage to the campus in recent days by freshmen, new students, re turning students, faculty and staff has brought this scholarly community alive with activities for another school year. STUDENT ACTIVITIES are the means of providing mean ingful entertainment, recrea tional outlets, social and cul tural development, as well as worthwhile learning experi ences for students. One of the highlights of the 1965 orienta tion week was an assembly at which the personnel deans and the Student Government As sociation leaders informed the freshmen and new students about social, recreational and cultural programs, projects and activities that are sponsored by and for the student body, by and for the women student body, by and for the men stu dent body, by and for off-cam pus students, as well as the role the men play in those activities sponsored in women’s dormi tories and the role women play in those sponsored in men’s dormitories. All of these, in all areas, and at all levels are laboratories in which the arts of social and cultural development of young men and women take place here at N. C. C. Another innovation in the 1965 orientation week was a get-acquainted social - recrea tional activity in the Freshman Bowl for freshmen, new students and returning stu dents. The activity included dancing and games such as cards, checkers, ping-pong, vol leyball, badminton and music for listening. Beyond the orien tation week, and along with ac tivities sponsored by personnel deans and student organizations, there are two dreams. One is that the intramural program of the college will be come a forceful reality. The other is that those members of the faculty and student body in the profession of teaching' and learning in the area of recrea tion will see the student ac tivities on campus as opportuni ties for interning in the appli cation of their talents and skills. HOUSING is a student per sonnel service which encompass es laboratories in the personal and social development of stu dents. Living and learning while residing in dormitories and other college housing are inseparable. With the comple tion of the new dormitory for 300 men, most of the under graduate men except those living in Durham and vicinity at home, are housed on campus WELCOME STUDENTS VISIT vs FOR YOVR 1 - HOXJR CLEANING SERVICE - 1 MONDAY THRU SATURDAY Drive-In Service — Electronic Control • Radio Dispatched Trucks • Open 6i45 A.M. — Qose 7:30 P.M.

It is anticipated that the new nine-story dormitory for 400 women will be ready for occu pancy in February, but it will not permit the housing of all undergraduate women on cam pus. Perhaps the three addition al dormitories authorized by the 1965 Legislature will come near providing ample housing for both women and men stu dents. In the meantime, the resi dents in the community have been most cooperative in help ing with the housing of stu dents. FOOD SERVICE will be greatly expanded upon the com pletion of the new cafeteria which is being constructed in front of the Health Building ad jacent to the present cafeteria. Graceful dining, being one of the basic socialization processes, involves fundamental education al experiences. Thus, it is im perative that the food services and the consumption of food go on in a manner that will con tribute to the total education of students. There is really more to eating than just having a meal. Social graces are a part of experiences of eating with other people. THE STUDENT CENTER has encountered considerable delay for two reasons. One, the pro curement of the land has in volved, in some cases, longer ne gotiations than was originally expected. Two, not enough mon ey was included in the original bill. Hence, the 1965 Legisla ture had to act on a bill for permission to borrow additional money. Thus, it will be 1966 before the construction of the Center gets underway. Among the services and facilities in the Student Center will be the bookstore, the Canteen, Office of the Yearbook, the Office of the Echo, meeting rooms for student organizations. Student Government headquarters, and a vast lobby for social dancing. RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES are significant as a tradition of Welcome Students & Faculty NORTH CAROLINA MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE CO.
