Student Leadership Outlined
At A&T's 1st Annual Retreat
Westfield, N. C. ? The leader
ship of students must be ob
served, judged and understood
as a whole or it will be poorly
observed and misunderstood.
That was the advice given
seventy of A&T State Univers
ity's student leaders at a pre
school retreat here last Tuesday.
The speaker, Dr. Malvin E.
Moore, dean of Fayetteville
State College, gave the keynote
address at the opening session of
the two-day meeting held at
Camp Vade Mecum.
He said that many educators
think they can reach a midpoint
between autocracy and democ
racy and that they can give lip
service to freedom of expression
and keep students in a sort of
medieval bondage.
"Student leadership," said Dr.
Moore, "should be observed in
relation to student leadership at
all colleges and universities with
whom contacts have been made
by administrators, teachers, stu
dents and laymen."
Dr. Moore said that in order
to reach an agreement on what
students should do concerning
their moral obligations, they
have to first examine obligations
to the university and to them
selves.
Coordinator of the retreat was j
Dr. Jesse E. Marshall, A&T's
dean of Student Affairs.
Others taking part in the pro
gram included Marsh Campbell,
president of the Student Gov
ernment Association; Miss Pa
tricia Mobley, "Miss A&T"; Dr.
Glenn F. Rankin, dean of Aca
demic Affairs; Dr. Albert W.
Spruill, Dr. Gloria Scott and
Albert Smith, all of the College
Family.
