the merger of the two colleges,
and pledged their wholehearted
support to an attempt to defeat
the merger at the meeting of
the convention in November.
Horty Liles and Nelda Ferguson,
students, spoke on “What Mere
dith Means to the Students and
to the Alumnae.”
Student Opposition
Students themselves voiced
their opposition to the Meredith-
Wake Forest merger on Thurs
day morning, October 19, at the
regular student government
chapel meeting and voted to
“strongly oppose” the merger.
The following resolution was
passed by the student body with
regard to the question—
“Resolved, that we, the Stu
dents of Meredith College, are
strongly opposed to the proposed
merger of Meredith College with
Wake Forest College for the
following reasons:
1. The proposed plan would
vastly limit the opportunities for
leadership such as we enjoy
here in a women’s college.
2. A higher academic rating
would not result, for at present
a degree from Meredith College
is equal to the Bachelor of Arts
degree from any university in
North Carolina.
3. The cultural, educational,
and religious opportunities af
forded us by our advantageous
location in the city of Raleigh
would be sacrificed in the event
of a change of location.
4. The friendly spirit of co
operation and understanding
which exists between faculty
and students here at Meredith
is a rare and treasured posses
sion, one which would be almost
entirely lacking in a school of
the type that this proposal
would establish.
5. The spiritual atmosphere
of Meredith which has been
built up through the years
could not be transplanted with
out loss of identity.
As one student has expressed
it, with the unanimous approval
of the student body, “we want
very much for Meredith to re
main as Meredith now, hence
forth, and forevermore!”
Crooking was begun in 1906
by Miss Carolyn Burr Phelps,
Then, in 1913, the crook was put
to rest, but it didn’t rest long,
because in 1929, it was brought
forth again.
