STUDENT WINS
JERSEY LOTTERY
Sophomore Greg Montes was
one digit away from having nine
million reasons to be grateful
this Thanksgiving
Passed out at his family's
Thanksgiving dinner with the
stuffing and mashed potatoes
were "Pick-6" Lottery tickets.
The ticket he received of
computer-generated numbers
was only one digit way from
being a perfect match with the
set drawn to win.
Instead, Montes won SI7OO,
five hundred of which will go
toward Guilford tuition. The
rest will fund a new stereo and
a party on the first weekend of
the spring semester in his Bryan
Suite .
As well as giving money to
Guilford athletics, Montes said
he would have spent the nine
million on "a bar in the Florida
Keys and an off-campus house
so we would have something to
do on the weekends."
Religious Emphasis Week set

The Fourth Annual Religious
Emphasis Week will be held Jan.
23-29. The event is sponsored by
Guilford's Council of Religious
Organizations (GCRO).
Max Carter, Guilford's campus
minister and advisor to GCRO,
was enthusiastic about the upcom
ing week: "We do a lot of ongoing
religious programming on campus
through GCRO, Campus Ministry,
Friends Center, and campus reli
gious groups such as Intervarsity
Christian Fellowship, Hillel and
Quaker Concerns.
"The idea of Religious Empha
sis Week raises awareness of reli
gious issues to another level and
gives an opportunity to both raise
the visibility of religious issues and
to give groups on campus an op
portunity to highlight their groups
and to have speakers," Carter said.
Religious Emphasis Week was
first held in January, 1991. "There

Senate approved the secretary
nomination of Sophomore Wade
Tomlinson Wednesday in a matter
of seconds after President Joy
Jansen asked for approval.
Tomlinson's approval came af
ter a previously reluctant Senate
decided to wait an extra meeting
so that a larger showing of Senate
was present, according to Jansen.
In addition, Senator Brian Sug
ioka asked at the initial meeting
that the decision be put off until
Wednesday's meeting at the re
quest of the absent Senator Mel
issa Hoopes.
Sugioka's request sparked hesi
tation among other senators.
Jansen said that Hoopes' concerns
were "never addressed" prior to the
meeting. However, according to
Tomlinson, her reservations about
his assuming the position had been
was a positive enough response to
it to keep it going," Carter said.
According to Carter, Guilford has
since linked the week to the "dis
tinguished Quaker visitor" Guil
ford brings to campus each year.
This year there will be two dis
tinguished visitors. Paul and Mar
garet Lacey, a married couple, will
be on campus for four days during
the week. According to Carter, the
couple heads an annual conference
at Pendle Hill, a Quaker retreat
center, on "sources of renewal for
educators."
Paul Lacey is an English profes
sor at Earlham College and a "na
tionally recognized expert on
teaching excellence," said Carter.
Lacey will speak on: "Sources of
Renewal for Education." He will
also work with faculty on support
for teaching excellence.
Margaret Lacey is an author and
poet. "She will read from her
books and poetry and will work
with students interested in feminist
writers," Carter said. Both will be
speaking at New Garden Friends
Guilford College, Greensboro, N.C.

Tomlinson said that some had
feared his other campus commit
ments would interfere with his new
position.
Tomlinson has relinquished
many positions and found replace
ments, he said.
"My main interest in the cam

position.
Meeting during the week.
Traditions from past Religious
Emphasis Weeks are also being
planned: "Our most successful
Religious Emphasis Weeks have
been when groups have showcased
their programs and have brought
in special speakers and sponsored
forums and panels...we're going to
do the tried-and-true things,"
Carter said.
One of the tried-and-true things
has been the student faith panel
held during Religious Emphasis
Week. Students from religious
groups such as Hillel, Intervarsity
Christian Fellowship and Quaker
Concerns, as well as those repre
senting a variety of religious tra
ditions, normally participate in the
panel. A faith panel has been
planned for the upcoming week.
"For those who are religious on
campus there is a sense of grati
tude that religious issues are given
front-burner status...it is my feel
ing that Guilford students are com
fortable talking about spiritual is
sues," Carter said.
Two more editors

The Guilfordian is losing two
members of its editorial board,
Sports Editor Will Cooper and
Photography Editor Eric Forman.
Cooper and Forman are two of
six Guilfordian editorial board
members to resign this semester,
according to Editor-in-Chief Joan
Malloch.
"Our continual loss of editors is
largely due to the lack of a sup
port system for leadership here at
Guilford," said Malloch.

He plans, however, to continue
working with the paper.
"I think I'll probably write the
rest of my years at Guilford," said
Cooper, a sophomore.
Eric Forman is unable to con
tinue primarily due to academic
considerations and the time con
straints of being a senior.
Forman said, "I found that I was

demands of The Guilfordian and
