OF BUDGET TALKS
Dr. Milner Presents Centennial
Program and Discussion of
Budget at Guilford.
SHEPARD IS CHAIRMAN
Mr. Suitor Speaks on Budgeting in Gen
eral; Mr. Shepard Discusses
the Personal Budget.
A series of three talks on student
budgeting were given in chapel Mon
day, Tuesday and Wednesday, placing
special emphasis on planning and exe
cuting a personal financial program.
In the first talk, Professor W. O.
Suiter presented the theory of budget
ing in general. He brought out that
for intelligent planning one must (1)
set up a goal for himself; (2) survey
and select the means, and (3) check up
carefully at intervals to determine
what progress is being made.
President Milner, in the second talk,
discussed budgeting in relation to Guil
ford College. After explaining that in
come and expenditures fall under three
heads, boarding, auxiliary enterprises,
and instructional expenses, he stated
that the boarding department should
be self-supporting, that the auxiliary
enterprises such as the farm, faculty
homes, etc., should produce a small in
come, while the instructional expenses
must be met by tuition, fees, income
from endowment and gifts. An inter
esting observation was that tuition and
fees produce an income of only half
the cost of a student's instruction.
The president outlined briefly the
financial program for the centennial
program, asking that the students fa
miliarize themselves with it through a
study of the first centennial bulletin, a
copy of which was given to each stu
dent.
Professor F. C. Shepard, in the third
talk, presented the financial program
necessary to complete a college career,

Sinking of the Good Ship Guilfordian."
