Health Center slated fer reforms
SENIOR DISSATISFIED WITH HEALTH CENTER,
PRESSES FOR BETTER ACCOMMODATIONS
By Mackenzie Perkins
Staff Writer
Next spring Guilford will increase the hours of the Health Center’s
physician’s assistant from nine to 15 per week. Students frustrated with
the Center’s limitations will have more opportunities to get treatment
and prescriptions.
Frustrated with the
limitations of the Guilford
Student Health Center,
senior and English major
Meredith Luby has stepped
up to advocate for the hire
of a full-time physician's
assistant. Her campaign is
bom from irritation with the
center's limited hours and the
difficult process of seeking
reimbursement from insurance
companies.
At present, two full-time
registered nurses and a part-
time physician's assistant (PA)
operate the Student Health
Center. The part-time PA is the
only staff member who can
write prescriptions, but is only
available at the Student Health
Center for nine hours a week.

and you go to the health

Football fights against
possibility of winless season
By Robert Bell
Staff Writer
It is written on every
Guilford football players'
face: This could be the week.
Is this the week? Please, let
this be the week. What was
a lean and hungry look in
August resembles something
more like desperation in
October. It is a look that's
not hard to detect. It is there,
plain as seven losses in a
row.
"You walk around on the
sideline and everyone has
sort of a dazed look," said
Justin Parker, a senior wide
receiver for the Quakers.
"We're all just shaking our
heads wondering how this
can be happening."
Everyone associated with
the Quaker football team
knew this season would be
particularly trying. There
were too many questions in
the running game, too many
holes in the offensive and
defensive fronts to simply
brush them aside. But no one
expected the Quakers to be
0-'7 heading into Saturday's

Greensboro War Memorial Auditorium on Oct 26. His Bryan
Series speech, one week prior to voting, was titled “What Will
Be the Impact of the Mid-term Elections?”
By Mackenzie Perkins

Greensboro's War
Memorial Auditorium
could have doubled for a
sitcom laugh track this week
when conservative social
and political commentator
David Brooks took the stage
on Oct. 26.
In the second installment
of the 2010-2011 Brian Series
lectures. Brooks addressed
all things politics in a talk
titled "What Will Be the
Impact of the Mid-term
Eections?" Over the course
of an hour, he outlined the
increasing lean towards
the right, the implications
therein for this round of
elections, and how the
public perceptions of the
stimulus and health care
plans were provocateurs in
this movement.
Between his nine years
of past experience with
the Wall Street Journal, his
regularly featured punditry
on PBS "NewsHour" and
National Public Radio's "All
Things Considered," and
his contributions to the op
ed section of The New York
Times, Brooks has seen it all
where the world of modem
U.S. politics is concerned.
