Frau Comes To Salem Millie McClendon Doctor Ursula Hocker, our Ger man exchange professor, has come to Salem from Frieburg, Germany. She speaks English very close to fluently with a pleas ing German accent and is always eager to learn more about our student dialect. Her observations on the American way of life are fascinating to hear. She adores the aroma drifting over from Reynolds Tobacco Plant when we have a good breeze. Yet she claims that walking in the cities in Germany is like committing suicide by slow death due to pol lution. With her proficiency in German and English, she is capable of teaching any of the students aged ten through nineteen in the Gym nasium (Germany’s equivalent to our junior and senior high school) in Frieburg, Frau Hocker chose students seventeen through nine teen years old and is thus famil iar with the age group she is teaching at Salem. As to her place in the American society in relation to women’s liberation, she says, “I consider myself to be very emancipated.” She travelled by herself to Lake High Rock last week-end and un expectedly came upon a colony of non-English speaking Germans camping along the side of the lake. She loves to travel and with results like those of last week end, she has decided to see the whole south. By Gwen Smith We — Margy Dorrief, Lynn Mappus, Dean Cecil, Sally Flynn, Mopsy Nesmith, Millie Mc Clendon, Liz Malloy, Effie Little, Cindy Greever, and Gwen Smith — exist in the suburbs of the Salem community. Not considered off-campus by the college, the Church Street House yields the feeling of being off-campus with out an estrangement from fellow students and on-campus life. Our first few weeks in the house have been delightful de spite frequent visits from the maintenance men, whom we now appreciate more than ever. Each one of the group of ten who live in “our house” contributes an in dividual personality to the small commune. On the front porch and in the kitchen and den are various forms of plant life, and it is not unusual to see Effie or Mopsy softly whispering encour agement to a plant when they think no one is watching, or see Liz or Millie manicuring the leaves and stems of the plant for a more healthy look. Lynn and Dean have supervised the “restructuring” of the living room and dining room creating a nice effect. Cindy presides as “house marm.” Sally keeps us informed on the soaps on TV, and Margy acts as the local DJ with her new stereo system. Me, well, I was just appointed to write the article. We do have exciting plans for our own personal growth and learning. Every week we plan to have a fireside chat to discuss intellectual and creative topics of interest to us. The small group of ten ideally lends itself to in formal discussions, and the kit chen is an undeniable asset in serving “accessories.” Last week Mac Bryan, religion professor at Wake Forest, and Sidney Kelly, religion professor at Salem, guided our lively discussion on academics. We hope that dis cussion will bear fruit during the year in our own approach to the classroom. This week Dr. Card- well and Frau Hocker guided our discussion, again pertinent to the structure of the classroom and our learning experiences that do or don’t come from that structure. It’s all really exciting and stimu lating. As a matter of fact, living as a small group we are getting to know one another on a more personal level, and our experi ences with each other are unique.
