AROUND CAMPUS
GO ASTRO
Students at this time of year find
themselves frantically involved in
Rush Week activities. As President
of the Astros, I welcome this op
portunity to help straighten out
some of the confusion for tlie fresh
man and transfers.
Students join a society mainly be
cause they have to, but after they
are initiated, freshmen and trans
fers understand why upperclassmen
give their all to the respective so
cieties. The societies started out as
literary organizations, but our focus
is much different now. The Astros
realize more and more our responsi
bility as a service society. We spon
sor a project as the Governor
Morehead School for the Blind,
visiting them throughout the year
and helping them to produce an ad-
free annual. In response to our
interest and affection, they de
veloped the Rhythm Kids, a com
bo that sings for the Astros during
our school year. We have been
working on more activities in con
nection with the Governor More-
head School, but our Society needs
the manpower and enthusiasm of
freshmen and transfers to help us
succeed in our endeavors.
The Astrotekton Society receives
its initiative both from the Governor
Morehead School and from the indi
vidual pride that comes from being
an Astro. We enjoy seeing others
happy.
The Astrotekton Society hopes

cheated by this revelation and may
even delude themselves into feeling
that their flowers must have been
delivered to the wrong person. It’s,
after all, a harmless delusion.
These, then, are the facts about
Dan Cupid’s visit to Meredith. Val
entine's Day has gone for another
year; candy boxes are almost empty
and flowers are drooping badly by
now, strewing petals over desks and
floors. And already students here
(and everywhere) are thinking
about next year’s February 14 and
hoping —• hoping for that special
one-in-900 valentine or those dozen
red roses — hoping that next year
the statistics will include them.

GO PHI
Phi is friendship. Have you ever
reached out to a child who could
not walk alone, and helped him
stand, if but for a moment, with his
peers? Have you ever seen the
happiness in those usually pain-
filled eyes, as a fake Santa Claus
reads his name on a cheap present?
Have you ever seen him cry when
he leaves the Christmas Party in a
drafty, run-down gym? Phi is be
ing a special friend to kids cursed
with cerebral palsy! “Service” is the
formal word for it — but friendship
is the real word.
Phi friendship — not just to these
kids, but among ourselves, It’s a
fellowship which is obvious at regu
lar meetings, in the dorms, at Rush.
It’s co-operation, enthusiasm, viva
city, affection. It’s staying up till
three o’clock to decorate halls, get
ting up at four to transform the
court, and serenading the freshmen
at seven. It’s “Come on and sing
with me, sing with me, P-H-1 . . .”
and it’s Milton.
Phi is “Brave Mother, lead the
Way.” Phi is a product of much and
of many. Phi is friendship.
