Page 2 The Pendulum Sept. 1, 1980 " Involvement counts Involvement is one key to success at Elon College. An active academic life supplemented by a diet containing extra-curricular activities helps make a well-rounded student. And that’s what a liberal arts education is all about. The Student Union Board (SUB) and the Student Government Association (SGA) lead the way in providing student activities. SUB is always looking for participants, and if you’re interested in concerts, dances and movies, Jerry Hooker is the man to see. Various media are integral parts of campus life. They include the Pendulum, Elon’s weekly newspaper; Colonnades, the literary magazine; and Phi Psi Cli, the yearbook. Anyone interested in writing, photography, cartooning or layout should drop by the Pendulum ofHce at 205 Long Student Center. For the musically gifted, Elon offers a concert and marching band, an orchestra, and the Emanons jazz band. The Liberal Arts Forum provides lectures and a yearly symposium. Last year’s forum film festival was well- attended. Other campus organizations include the Black Cultural Society, the Daytrippers for commuter students, the Public Interest Research Group (PIRG) which researches consumer information, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, and the Lacrosse Club. An opportunity to talk with members of these organiza tions and others will be Friday at the organizational fair. New as well as returning students will find the fair interesting and informative. What’s going on One of Elon’s continuing problems has been that of communications. Students constantly complain of not being informed about campus events and fjolicy changes. Despite the presence of a student weekly newspaper, a radio station, bullentin boards, mail boxes and a weekly newsletter, some people say they are still unable to find out what’s going on. The Pendulum, student newspaper, and WSOE, student radio station, are operated by volunteers interested in keeping us all in the know. WSOE is also soliciting the aid of interested students. The station is providing Elon College with good music, community and educational programming. The ’‘Communicator,” weekly newsletter prepared in the Public Information Office, is also another outlet for news of up-coming events. Communication is a two-way process. Students shouldn’t sit and wait for news to drop on their heads. Reading the newspaper, listening to the radio station, checking mailboxes, looking at bulletin hoards; and picking up a newsletter are ways to keep every student, faculty and staff member informed. Those who still don’t know what’s going on must not want to know. |fntltuluin t^lilor: Joy Hamilton I eaiures Editor: Robin Adams Sports: Day Irmite Photographer: Ed Huehn ( omposition: Priscilla Crumpton Karen Carrouth Adviser: Mary Ellen Priestley Advertising Manager: Ken Whitley fublished by Communications Media Board of Elon College in conjunction with the Student Government Association.
