First Social Set For Oct. 7 Charlotte College’s first social event scheduled for October 7 will be held to help the students meet their classmates. Working on the assumption that the stu dents have difficulty getting ac quainted since such varied cours es of study are followed, the social committee has prepared a program to remedy that. The pro gram will require student par ticipation; so the committee urg es all the students to attend. The outcome of this event will determine not only the number of events to be held, but also the type of events. Have you heard of the fat wom an who visited the shipyard on the West Coast. She bent over to tie her shoe-string, and before she could straighten up they broke a bottle of champagne over her stern and launched her.

Senn 4-7174 CC Accredited By American Association As this issue of the Charlotte Collegian goes to press, word has been received that Charlotte Col lege has been accredited by the American Association of Junior Colleges. Membership in the Association means that the work of students of Charlotte College is transfera ble to all schools in North Caro lina and in the United States. According to Miss Bonnie E. Cone, Director of Charlotte Col lege, the American Association of Junior Colleges is the highest ranking organization of which Charlotte College, as a junior college, could be a member. The Association membership is made up of approximately 500 junior colleges. The college has held a provi sional membership in the Asso ciation since July, 1949, but it was not until July of this year that the college was granted active membership by the Board of Directors of the Association. Before active membership could be granted, it was necessary that the college be accredited by the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction. This approval was released in June of this year and was retroactive to Septem ber, 1949, when the school first began operation as a part of the Charlotte school system.
