THE SALE MITE

By Hannah Nicholson
Saturday the Salem convoy rolled
along the iiighway headed toward
Davidson, Most of the girls were
freshmen and over half of them
were facing computer dates. The
Davidson mixer, planned by IRS
head, Zelle Holderness, was some
thing new and everyone w'as eagerly
awaiting the outcome.
Last Saturday night the tired
group returned home. Some of the
girls had stars in their eyes, but
others—well, the only stars any
where near them were those hang
ing in the sky.
When asked about the outcome of
their computer dates, the opinion
was almost evenly divided. Ann
Dukehart excitedly replied that hers
was mueh better than she had ex
pected and that she “hoped to see
him again.” Suzanne Mallard, how
ever, replied saying that her date
I was not at all what I expected.
He certainly wasn’t my idea of the

claimed, “He wants to be a medical
missionary to the Union of South
Africa 1” Liza Pond quietly said
that she didn’t think that she and
her date had that much in common
*nd that the computer must have
gotten mixed up. “Mine was right

him as an average blind date.” An
other girl, who wished to remain
anonymous declared that her date
‘\vas not quite up to my expecta
tions.”
The activities included the game
that afternoon (which put a damper
on the whole day because of the
team’s poor showing and terrible
defeat), an art exhibit, supper on
the terrace, and a dance or movie
that night. One poor girl said she
ended up playing bridge for three
hours instead of attending any of
the planned activities.
Ann Dukehart liked the Dividson
mixer better than the one Salem
had earlier in the year with Wake
Forest because “you were assured
of a date.” She suggested that it
might be nice to try it with Wake
Forest next year. Others liked it
better than the Wake Forest one
because there was something plan
ned to do all the time. Muff Tar
rant expressed a majority opinion
when she said that it was better
because “the Wake Forest mixer
was too abrupt and it was a hit-or-
miss thing.” Most of the girls
liked the idea of having a date and
being assured of something to do.
However, several of the girls re
plied that they liked it less because
the Wake Forest one was more of
a mixer and there were more peo
ple there. Some of the girls felt
that they didn’t get to meet as
many people, and most of them said
that the RESULTS of the Wake

Students Represent Salem
At Regional NSA Meeting
Salem was represented at the
Carolinas-Virginia Fall Regional
Convention of the National Student
Association by Judy Campbell, Lau
rie Williams, Eleanor Trexlor, and
Cheri Lewis. Meetings were held
October IS and 16 on the campus of
UNC-G with approximately eighty
delegates from the fourteen mem
ber schools participating.
Friday, students heard a key note
address by William G. Long, Dean
of Men at UNC-CH. The topic of
this message was “Nine Point Stu
dent Bill of Rights.” Afterwards,
seminar committee groups met to
discuss and solve various problems
found in the college community.
Saturday afternoon the guest
speaker A1 Lowenstein, head of the
Committee of Americans for Re
appraisal of Far Eastern Policy,
spoke to the group about foreign
policy. During the closing sessions,
the committees summarized the re
sults of their discussions the pre
vious day.
Judy Campbell was elected to
serve as dice-president of Inter
national Affairs and, in this capa
city, will be planning conferences
to stress this topic. The Honor
Code committee meetings which she
attended discussed the systems used
by various schools in order that
certain rules be clarified and viola
tions classified. Judy was impressed
with Salem’s student government
and honor tradition, finding “ours
to be a very unique and well-work
ing system.” From sharing ideas
on a judicial committee, she re
ported personal satisfaction with
Salem’s organization, especially
upon discovery that some colleges
have no student government what
soever.
Eleanor attended the seminar on
student representation on faculty
committees. Within that group
representing eight different schools,
she found that the majority of them
had no voice in administrative
committee rulings and decisions.
Laurie brought back information
from the committee on student
awareness. The main purpose of
the study was to examine methods
of prevention of student apathy-
through programs like symposiums,
student government lectures, de
bates, student speakers, teach-ins,
guest speakers, and political unions.
Cheri discovered from the seminar
discussion on student regulations
that those at Salem were moderate
in comparison to other colleges with
either extremely conservative or ex
tremely liberal regulations. Other
schools participating from this re
gion were Davidson, Queens, Mere
dith, University of Virginia, Mars
Hill, Hollins, Sweetbriar, UNC-G,
UNC-Charlotte, UNC-CH, Lenoir
Rhyne, Longw^ood, and Virginia
State.
