Senator Elections Sept. 8
Officers gear up for a busy year
Cory Birdwhistell
Staff Writer
The campaign is in full swing
for the Sept. 8 Community Senate
elections, and before the ballots
have even been cast the Executive
Council and Steering Committee
are busy planning the agenda for
the new year.
"I'm extremely excited about
this year," exclaims Senate Presi
dent Rich Ewell, "We have one of
the best group of student leaders
in memory—from the Union all
the way down club lines, they are
creative people who have proven
their dedication."
First-year students have been
especially encouraged to run for
Senate. Ewell explains, "It is a
great place for them to work with
people they wouldn't ordinarily
meet, to be informed about college
issues, to have a major say on
policy and to hopefully have fun,
too. We're here to make it hap
pen!"
According to Ewell, Guilford
students should vote for candidates
who articulate and listen well, are
creative problem-solvers, have the
ability to both express their own
opinions and those of their con-
Kannenberg
Joins Guilford
Alison Amis
Staff Writer
After traveling and teaching in
Europe and Asia, Dr. Catherine
Kannenberg has joined the Guil
ford community this fall by ac
cepting the job as the college's
newest psychology professor.
She brings to Guilford experi
ence in teaching in a variety of
atmospheres and also a global
perspective. In reflecting on her
first impressions of Guilford and
its students, Catherine's opinions
were highly favorable.
"Guilford students are the
brightest and most interesting
(that) I've ever come across. The
college has a definite character

stituency and are pro-active, open,
respectful and dedicated.
Senate priorities for this fall in
clude: creating a statement which
describes Guilford's uniqueness as
related to the Quaker presence, re
sponding to social life concerns by
re-visiting the drinking policy and
upgrading the career development
center. The first Senate meeting
is Sept. 14 in Boren Lounge.
The Senate leadership,which
consists of Ewell, Vice President
Chris Behm, Treasurer Brian Bur
ton and Secretary Terrance Laster,
is fulfilling some of its campaign
promises from last spring. They
are working to make Senate more
accessible by organizing the Sen
ate offices and encouraging their
use, are attempting to arrange the
historically unorganized Senate
records and are encouraging inter
action between groups on campus
by planning a student organization
retreat to Hanging Rock.
Ewell does not expect the prob
lems of last year, such as surprise
resignations, to occur. He explains
that the members of the Executive
Council have Senate experience.
"We know what we're getting
into," he laughs, "and I plan not
to resign!"

Scholarship Search
Deadline Approaching
Daphne Lewis
Co-Editor in Chief
The financial aid department is
now offering the Scholarship
Search service for the 1995-1996
year. However, it is imperative
that students interested apply be
fore October 1994.
"Many of the deadlines for the
private scholarships are fairly early
in the year, so the sooner you ap
ply, the better," said Dana Dooley,
financial aid administrator.
The Scholarship Search is a da
tabase that matches a student's
background and extra-curricular
activities to thousands of potential
sources of grant and scholarship
money funded by foundations,
unions, and organizations, accord
ing to Anthony Gurley, director of
financial aid.

In exchange for the $lO fee, the
student will get three things in re
turn: a letter listing any potential
matches, a summary of each of
those matches including informa-

ship donor, and a draft letter to use
as a model for writing potential
sources.
It takes the financial aid depart
ment only a few days after the stu
dent turns in their application to get
information back to the student,
said Dooley.
According to Gurley, the money
that students receive from the ser
vice will not be subtracted from
their financial assistance at Guil
ford. Any scholarship or grant
money acquired this way will be
used in the place of any self-help
money, which includes loans and
work-study.
The financial aid department is
also offering this service to high
school seniors in the area, regard
less of whether or not they are
planning to attend Guilford.
Students can pick up applica
tions in the financial aid depart
ment, which is located on the sec
ond floor of New Garden Hall.
