Scott Make Every Minute Count In the rapidly changing world and dynamic society we are now living in, we cannot afford to waste even one precious minute. We have heard the saying “Time marches on.” I hope this suggests the same idea to you as it does to me. That idea is: if time marches on, I have to do more than march because I have to have some time to sleep and time does not. You may say to yourself, “I do not want to keep up with time, I just vi^t to be myself.-^ If so, take'** few minutes out to think and ask yourself one question: “Why am I here at Fayetteville State Teachers College?” If the answer is to keep up with the Joneses, I take pride in telling you that you are in the wrong place and have the wrong idea. We are here to better ourselves, help our fellowmen, build our com munities, and serve our country. This we cannot do if we waste time. Here, the question of what we can do so that we may not waste time may occur. First, we can take self inventory. “Was that minute spent so as to help me move further toward my goals or aims?” If the answers to such questions are negative, that means a minute was wast ed, and we cannot afford to waste even one. Second, we must concentrate on doing something about the situation. Let us try elimination. Gossiping idly does not help nor does “railology” have a place in our curriculum. So the only possible solution is to spend more time doing research and studying. Encourage Mary to do the same, so she will not get lonesome while you are working. — THE EDITOR From The Students’ Point Of View “I am very happy that I have chosen Fayetteville State Teach ers College to complete my educa tion. While attending New York University from which I transfer red, I had the idea that college faculties and students did not care whether or not a student was at tending their college. It was not until I became enrolled at Fayette ville State Teachers College that I realized that teachers actually take an interest in the students. It was also here that I learned that fellow students can be very con genial.” —Emrna Jackson “FayetteviUe State Teachers College is one of the greatest col leges in North Carolina. The stu dent body and faculty are of the best quality found anywhere. Therefore our college can’t help being the greatest.” —Delories Shavers, Sophomore “I think that Fayetteville State is swell, but at all institutions there is room for improvement. Freedom of speech, I feel, is not practiced here as stipulated by certain people. Don’t misunderstand me now, I mean freedom as long as the statement does not infringe upon the rights of others. I also feel that certain students are over worked because of the lack of ini tiative on the parts of others.” —Calvin Gay, Junior “I think that Fayetteville State Teachers College is a great insti tution. There is a strong “student- teacher” relationship on the cam pus that I never knew existed.” —Robert McMillan, Freshman Orientation As I Saw It JOHNNY PERRY During Freshman Orientation Week I observed many bewildered students. Some of those with whom I talked said they had imagined it would be difficult for them to adjust to the new environment. They also stated that previously they had the impression that the instructors would never spend any time trying to help them solve the problems confronting students. But oh! how surprised the students were to leam that any time they needed advice they could make arrangements to have conference with their instructors. One student said, “As a result of my first week here at Fayetteville State Teach ers College, this wiU be the most enjoyable four years of my life.” I am sure that the rest of the college freshmen will agree with him. Campus Guests JOHNNY PERRY There was a tremendous crowd on hand during the Homecoming Weekend. Among the special cam pus guests seen rooting for the Broncos were: Mrs. Sally Jones of Winton, North Carolina, sister of President Rudolph Jones; Dr. J. W. Seabrook, former president of FSTC, and his wife, Mrs. M. H. Seabrook, formerly a professor in the Science Department of the col lege; our former dean. Dr. Lafay ette Parker, and his wife, both teaching at Winston-Salem Teach ers College; members of the Met ropolitan Basketball Club (FSTC alumni—New Jersey and New York Chapters); and scores of other alumni and friends. Among those pulling for our opponents, St. Augustine’s Falcons, was Miss St. Augustine’s College, Betty M. Jef fries, senior from Burlington, N. C. A Freshman’s Thoughts ALPHONZO DAVIS The college is located in a com munity and region in which note worthy efforts are evolving to uti lize all available resources toward creating better environments for human development. The college seeks to assist students to under stand situations so that as future community leaders they may par ticipate in guiding the dynamics of American society toward desirable goals. • Attractively landscaped lawns and geometrically arranged walks and roadways blend with the na tural scenery of the foliage and trees to provide the kind of beauty that the college traditionally has re garded as one of the essentials of educational experience. The buildings are all functional as well as beautiful and they have been designed especially to meet the needs of the students and teach ers who use them. They are also designed with the fact in mind that in a state-supported institution the people of the State are ever-wel- come visitors and resource persons who can make significant contribu tions to the overall development of the institution. These are the ideas that I have found concerning the beauty of Fayetteville State Teachers Col lege. I am convinced that I have chosen the best school in North Carolina.

Add Dimension ToYourFriendship EVA McEACHERN Fortunate is the young person who makes friends easily. A big smile and a gay “hi” with an at titude of good-natured interest in others, are excellent ways of wid ening one’s circle of casual friends. It is fun as weU as exciting to acquire an ever-widening circle of acquaintances, but have you thought of the other dimension? The dimension of deepening friend ships? Deepening friendships in volves more than just a gay “hi” and a big smile. It includes such qualities as loyalty, reliability, consideration of others, and ac ceptance of people as they really are. Loyalty as we know it, means refraining from gossip about people we know, and never betraying con fidences, no matter how tempting the situation. Loyalty also means displaying courage in the face of open critfcism of a particular friend, even though the criticism may be based on fact. Reliability is one aspect of the kind of friendship that grows deep er with time. Not only does this mean coming through when there is a big job that needs to be done, but it also means the ability to rate the trust of others because you never duck your fair share of responsibility. There often arises the question of what to do when you itch to “make over” “some people you know; people you say would be just perfect “if only it weren’t for this” or “if only it weren’t for that.” If you are really a friend you will accept that person the way he really is without feeling that it is your duty to change or re form him. Show him your con sideration and loyalty by letting him know that you appreciate his good qualities. Being considerate of friends comes naturally if one has an awareness of the needs and wants of others. It is a good thing to make new friends, but it is even better to add dimension to your friendsmpS'.'' ^ We Regret f We regret that our Editor was | hospitalized in the midst of the j editing of this issue.

She: “Am I the first girl you ever kissed?” He: “Now that you mention it, you do look familiar.” AGE OF SCIENCE A resident of Cape Canaveral, Fla., was on his first visit to the nation’s capital. Viewing the Wash ington Monument, he remarked, “They’ll never get it off the ground.” In the Grammar lesson one day, the teacher wrote on the black board: “I didn’t have no fun at the sea side,” Then she turned around to her pupils and said to one: “Robert, how should I correct that?” “Get a boy friend,” he answered. Cal: “Why did you leave your job?” Al: “Illness, The boss got sick of me.” Life: Just one fool thing after an other. Love: Just two fool things after each other. Some girls like a man with a past, some like a man with a fu ture, but they all go for a man with a present.
