The Guilford College
Natural Foods Buying Col
lective is now function
ing. The collective was
formed in response to a
growing concern and need
of the college community.
Food prices are out of
control, weekly grocery
bills are becoming op
pressive for the average
family. We are getting
continually lower returns
on our dollars both in
quantity and nutritional
value. In response to the
food situation more and
more people are turning
back to natural foods
(whole grains & dried beans
etc.) for low cost high
nutrition meals. As a non
profit organization the
collective is able to make
a wide variety of natural
foods available to members
at a considerable reduction
in price. At the same time
we are able to maintain a
high quality level in all

DRUG ACTION
HERE & THERE
A Statement Adopted by the
Faculty Expressing Concern
Over the Use of Drugs on
Campus
The Faculty of Guilford
College is concerned that
there have been instances
of improper and/or unlawful
use of drugs on campus.
The Faculty is concerned
with creating a community
that provides for the prac
tice of individual freedom
and a community free from
any influence or thing de
structive of the best with
in the individual or the
best within the group. We
hold that the improper use
of drugs is destructive.
We are further concerned
that some students fail to
understand or casually dis
regard the serious conse
quences of excessive or un
lawful use of drugs. All
persons must clearly under
stand that the College is
not a sanctuary from the
law.
