The China Year on Campus

what is life like in the terra incognita of Mao Tse-tung? Alumni who
attend the China Year Program on the Greensboro campus this year
will understand a great deal more about what goes on behind the
Bamboo Curtain, because an im.pressive array of China experts has
been invited to campus to lecture on various aspects of Chinese life.
A brief introduction to China, past and present, is provided on these
pages by Professor Lenoir Wright.

by Dr. Lenoir C. Wright

The eight trigrams shown above are said to have been
created by the legendary emperor, Fu Hsi (2852-
2738 B.C.), to represent aspects of nature. In this ar-
rangement prosperity is insured. (In the / Ching oi
Book of Changes, a book of divination, the trigrams are
arranged in the form of hexagrams as shown.) In the
center of the hexagram are the alternating forces of the
universe: Yin (earth, passive, female, weak, dark)
and Yang (heaven, active, male, strong, light).

China's recorded history begins with the
^ Shang Dynasty in about' 1500 B.C. This
^^^^ Dynasty was conquered by the Chou Dynasty
J ^^^P ca. 1027; hovve\'er, this dynasty slowly began
M ^^^ to disintegrate. In its last stage, in a period
V PV^ known as "The Warring States," beginning in
W 403 B.C., there was increasing ci\il strife. It

is remarkable that during such a period there
should occur an intellectual upsurge known
as "The 100 Schools" during which various ideologies
"contended" to offer a solution to the chaos of the times.
Prominent among them were : Taoism ( Do Nothing ) ,
Legalism ( Rewards and Punishment ) and Confucianism
(Indi\iduals Radiating Goodness). The Chin Dynasty
which conquered the Chou in 221 B.C. unified China
again and adopted the authoritarian Legalist ( Law and
Order) theory. This pro\ed too harsh, especially since
it involved a "burning of the books" of opposing ideolog-
ies, and the Chin was replaced bv the Han Dvnasty
in 206 B.C.

It was the Han Dynast}- that set the standard for the
imperial pattern which was to prevail with man\- dynastic
changes and barbarian interludes until 1911. The Con-
fucian system which was adopted by the Han is in
considerable measure responsible for gi\ing continuity'
to China. Howe\er, it is important to note that some
elements of Chin Legalism were retained: in other
words, it was necessary to have some "Law and Order"
in the control of the empire. While the Emperor, the
Son of Hea\en, had great power, the administration was
in the hands of a group of officials who were selected on
the basis of showing in the ci\-il service examinations.
The antiquity of such a method of selecting bureaucrats

Although Chiang K'ai-shek had limited suc-
cess in relieving the pressure of Western
imperialism and in modernization, it is clear
that his "rule" was not a success.

is \\orth\- of note, but e\en more remarkable is the fact
that the content of these examinations was the Con-
fucian Classics. The aim was to produce administrators
who excelled in moral goodness. Dynasties rose and
fell, but the Confucian system continued. In part this
was due to the fact that the historically-minded Chinese
were proud of their way of life. China, until the brutal
intrusion of the West, regarded itself as the "Central
Kingdom." All others were barbarians. The system was
also perpetuated because China remained an agricultural
society with basically two classes: the small group of
scholar-gentry-officials who ruled and the mass of peas-
ants who were ruled. The amount of upward mobility'
provided by the examination system, which theoretically
was open to all, is a matter of debate. In any event, no
substantial middle class emerged, and there was no in-
dustrial re\olution, despite some trends to the contrary'
during the Sung Dynast)' and despite some very interest-
ing inventions such as gunpowder and the magnetic
compass.

Beginning in the 18th and 19th centuries, the West
which had had a successful scientific and industrial rev-
olution forced its way into China, shattering the delicate
fabric of Chinese ci\ilization. The Chinese, humiliated,
were unable effectively to respond to this intrusion.
Wracked for many years by internal re\ olt, the Ch'ing or
Manchu Dynasty was overthrown in 1911 and a RepubUc
under the leadership of Dr. Sun Yat-sen was established.
Dr. Sun renounced Confucianism and embraced Western
ideology, but the Republic did not prosper. China con-
tinued to be exploited by Western imperialism and
powerful regional "warlords" prevented the unification
of the country.

In March 1925, Sun died, frustrated and
embittered. For two years there was a col-
laboration between the Chinese Communists
and the Nationalist Kuomingtang, with Rus-
sian ad\isers playing a significant role. In
1927, Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek, who had
gained a considerable military following
through his position as Commandant of the
Wampoa Military Academy, seized power.
He turned against the Communists and destroyed their
urban bases of power. One remnant, led by Mao Tse-
tung, fled into the countryside and established a Chinese
Soviet in the Hunan-Kiangsi border area. After a number
of failures, Chiang's troops forced Mao and his followers
to undertake the famous "Long March", a journey of

some 6,000 miles through the back country of China
and ultimately up to Yenan in the North West.

Although Chiang K'ai-shek had limited success in
relieving the pressure of Western imperiahsm and in
modernization, it is clear that his "rule" was not a success.
Among the factors causing his final downfall are the
corruption, not by Chiang but by some of his officials;
a failure to institute land reform; the growing strength of
Mao and the Chinese Communists; and the Japanese in-
vasion beginning in 19.38. Eventually, the Japanese con-
trolled most of the eastern seaboard, with the Nationalist
government being forced to retreat up the Yangtse river
to Chungking.

The World War II years were years of frustration
for the Chiang government. The Generalissimo deployed
his best troops, not against the Japanese but against the
Chinese Communists, and hoarded the rest for the final
showdown which he felt would come after the war.
Because of difficulties of supply and problems of dis-
tribution, China experienced terrible inflation which
e\'en massive infusions of United States aid could not
stop. In contrast, the Chinese Communists expanded
their control and influence in the countryside and suc-
cessfully put guerrilla pressure on the Japanese, con-
fining them to the large cities. As soon as the Japanese
surrendered, open ci\il war broke out between the two
contestants for power, despite the effort of the U.S.
Marshall mission to effect a compromise sharing of
power. With United States material assistance, Chiang's
troops achieved some initial successes, but by late 1947
the tide had begun to turn in fa\'or of the Communists.
Disaster piled on disaster for the Nationalists, and in 1949
Chiang was forced to retreat to Taiwan ( Formosa ) where
he set up his government as, according to his claim, the
legally entitled government of mainland China.

Now in ph\sical control of mainland China,

^k^ the Chinese Communists proceeded to set up

ffV the People's Republic of China. In the early

^^ years of the People's Repubfic, except for the

^^L rich landlords who were liquidated (estimates

^K^ vary widely but the number seems to have

^^ ■ been in the millions), various classes of soci-

I ety, i.e., middle peasants, petty bourgeoisie,

f intellectuals and even capitalists were in-

' \ited to share in the rebuilding of the new

China; however, it is clear that the Chinese Communist

Party (CCP) held the reigns of power in its hands. In

the beginning, the Soviet model was followed closely.

The University of North Carolin.\ at Greensboro

It was the youth, especially those of poor
peasant and worker origin, whom Mao hoped
would perpetuate his revolution.

that is to say, emphasis on heavy industry, with the
agricultural sector being "squeezed." Russian financial
aid and technical assistance were important until 1960
when suddenly it was withdrawn. Thereafter, relations
between these two Communist powers drifted from bad
to worse, resulting ultimately in serious military border
clashes.

On the domestic scene, Mao and his colleagues slowly
tightened totalitarian control. Every aspect of national
life — art, education, politics, economics — was harnassed
to the service of the state. By 1956, Mao felt so secure
that he called "a hundred flowers to bloom and a
hundred schools to contend," a poetic reference to the
"100 schools" of the late Chou Dynast}' and in\oIving
an in\itation to criticize his "regime." The results were
starthng. Not only did the intellectuals condemn bureau-
cratic mismanagement but some even dared openly to
criticize Communist Party doctrine. Such heresies could
not be tolerated and reprisals were visited upon these
"bourgeoisie rightists."

Encouraged by the success of the First Five Year
Plan, completed in 1957, and mislead by overenthusiastic
reports of agricultural successes, the government, in 19.58,
launched the "Great Leap Forward." The key was a
shift from collectives into People's Communes. Involving
units of approximately 10,000 workers, the Commune was
designed to fulfill multiple objectives. Two stand out.
First, this large, mobile rural force could be used in
non-seasonal agricultural activity to build dams, irrigation
projects, "backyard furnaces," etc., without any sub-
stantial capital investment. China's surplus population
was thus to become an asset. Second, since the Commune
involved use of communal kitchens, the abandonment
of all private property and the break-up of the family,
Mao could and did tell the Russians that by this act of
entry into "pure" communism, a step not yet taken in
the USSR, China had demonstrated its ideological super-
iority in the Communist world. However, three years of
natural disasters, plus vigorous peasant resistance, forced
a widespread retreat from the Commune system. Mao
himself came under severe criticism from Liu Shao-ch'i
and other party leaders. He seemingly suffered a political
eclipse and disappeared from public view. There were
even rumors of his death.

Actually, Mao was only regrouping his forces. In
1965, from his base at Shanghai and with the aid of
General Lin Piao, head of the People's Liberation Army,
his wife, Chiang Ch'ing and others, Mao launched his

Great Cultural Proletarian Revolution. Beginning in May
1965, with an attack on several Peking literary figures
who were condemned for indirectly satirizing Chairman
Mao and Maoist principles, the net was widened to in-
clude a number of prominent Party leaders who had
dared to criticize iMao for the failure of the "Great Leap."
The ultimate target was Liu Shao-ch'i, Mao's heir desig-
nate. Certain details remain even now obscure to the
China Watchers, but it would seem that Mao's deeper
purpose was to insure a "Continuing Revolution." At age
72, Mao felt that bureaucrats in the CCP and the gov-
ernment had abandoned their revolutionary fervor for
the security of jobs and a higher standard of living, just
as had happened in the USSR. The chief instrumentality
for rooting out these "Capitalist Roaders " was the Red
Guard (highschool and college students), aided by the
PLA. It was the \outh, especially those of poor peasant
and worker origin whom Mao hoped would peipetuate
his revolution. Schools and colleges were closed. The
Red Guard literally roamed the whole of China, attack-
ing the educational establishment and inflicting violence
and humiliation on numerous Party and government
leaders, many of whom were purged. However, violence
coupled with factional fighting among the Red Guard
became so intense that beginning in 1967 Mao ordered
the PL.\ to suppress the rambunctious \outh. By 1968,
the militant students were dispersed to the countryside.
It is still too earh' to assa\' fulh- the eonse(iuences of
this momentous Cultural Re\olution, especialK' those
of a long-range nature. We do know that for about t\\o
years schools and colleges were closed, transportation
was snarled and industrial and agricultural output suf-
fered. The Red Guard, having tasted power, are now
dispersed and frustrated; no one knows what future role
they will play. One thing is clear and that is that the
PLA greatly strengthened its position. Army men are in
control of key centers of power in the Party and the
government. Educational reform effected during the Cul-
tural Revolution stresses "Redness" o\er "E.xpertness."
At the same time, there has been a concerted effort to
improved production in agriculture and industr}" with
seeming success although hard statistical data is not
available. In general, the moderates led by Premier
Chou En-lai seem to be in control, and the People's
Republic appears to be turning its attention to the
outside world. However, clear outlines of the future
course of the People's Republic are not discernible, at
least to this writer. D

The China Year
Program at unc-g

1971-1972 seems destined to mark the emergence of
the People's Republic of China from its largely self-
imposed isolation and the beginning of a search for a
more public role in world affairs. Its chances of being
seated in the United Nations this fall seem excellent and
there is also a pretty good chance of a resumption of
official relations with the USA.

Our purpose in organizing a "China Year" program
for the campus of UNC-G is to bring to the attention of
faculty- and students a \ariety of \iewpoints designed to
show the complexity and magnitude of the problems that
we and the rest of the world will be facing in dealing
with Mainland China. At the same time, we feel that
China's importance lies not so much in terms of crisis or
problems but in human values. One certainly does not
have to endorse or support the policies of the present
regime in China in order to appreciate the fact that we
cannot continue to ignore a country with 700-800 million
people, with a continuously recorded history dating back
to 1500 B.C. and with a rich cultural heritage.

SHANG DYNASTY - An inverted, helmet-shaped bowl
used for ceremonial purposes in relifiious festivals in

monster so greedy it has eaten its lower jaw.

CHOU DYNASTY - This bronze vase is actually a
Sung copy (fifth to third century B.C.) of the late
Chou period.

T'ANG DYNASTY - Considered to be the peak of
Chinese civilization, the Tang dynasty was an era of
great peace and material progress ilue to the absence
of xenophobia which led at other periods to China's
isolation from the world. The terra cotta figure of the
camel boy is representative of the animal and people
figures which were buried in the tombs of the
Chinese nobles, a practice which replaced the custom
of burying live animals and live servants, both of
whom objected strenuoush'.

MING DYNASTY - The terra cotta candlestick, repre-
senting a pilgrim with arms raised to his hat, reflects
the influence of Central Asia, brought o\er caravan
routes from the Middle East in the fourteenth cen-

The China Year

Behind the Scenes

Weeks before the famous ping-pong tournament in China
and President Nixon s decision to visit the Chinese main-
land, two members of the faculty, Dean Katherine Taijlor
and Professor Lenoir Wright, icere planning a series of
China "events" for the Greensboro campus.

Lenoir C Wright

by Erskine Walther 71
Graduate Student

"I dare say you liavent Iwd mucJi practice." Said the
Queen. . . . "WJiy, sometimes I've believed as many as
six impossible things before breakfast."

Lewis Carroll

THE seemingly impossible or at least improbable
is more often than not 'old hat' to Dr. Lenoir
Wright, who is himself a somewhat improbable
indi\idual. A full professor in both the History and
Political Science Departments, Dr. Wright chairs the
committee which directs UNC-G's International Studies
Program and is the personification of the University's
Asian Studies Program. His interest in Asian affairs began
during the second world war when Dr. Wright ser\'ed

in the Pacific with the United States Navy. It has never
ceased.

In addition to impressive academic credentials (B.A.
from Chapel Hill, B.A. and M.A. from Oxford, M.A. and
Ph.D. from Columbia and a Harvard Law degree), Dr.
Wright brings a rich panorama of personal experience
to the classroom, ranging from an archaeological dig
in the Israeli desert to chmbing Mount Fuji in Japan.
His shdes from these numerous trips pro\ide an ad-
ditional exciting and important element to his interesting
lectures. ( His teaching was recognized in 1969 when he
received the Alumni Teaching Excellence Award). E.\-
periences gained in his personal journeys as well as dur-
ing his two Fulbright's — the first one, a year teaching in
Baghdad, and the latest, a summer of work in India —
add a touch of personal knowledge to political and
cultural situations which often seem remote and puzzling
to the western student.

One of the aims of this year's special program on
China is to make this fascinating yet perplexing land
more inteUigible to the westerner. The China Year will
draw on experience gained in 1968 when Dr. Wright and
Miss Taylor directed a highly successful program of
lectures, films and exhibits celebrating the restoration of
the Meiji Emperor in Japan in 186S. The program plan-
ned for the China Year promises to not only equal but
'to surpass the Meiji Centennial program.

When asked about the nature of knowledge, Con-
fucius replied : "When you see a thing that you know —
to recognize that you know it, and when you see a thing
that you do not know — to recognize that you do not
know it; that is knowledge." Thanks to Dr. Wright many
of us belong to the first category and by the conclusion
of the China Year many more may ha\e joined. D

Katherine H. Taylor

by Jim Lancaster '72

THE first impression a student has of Dean Katherine
Taylor is quite imposing. This is due in large part
to her bearing and manner. She is in every way a
person who commands and deserves respect. The reasons
for this last statement are several — Dean Taylor is an
individual who obviously enjoys the work which is hers
to do. Her position as Dean of Student Services is not
the first in which responsibility has been placed upon
her shoulders. She graduated from Woman's College in
1928; was awarded the Weil Fellowship and recei\'ed
her master's degree at RadcHffe College. She studied in
France and returned to Woman's College as a member
of the Romance Languages Department and Counselor.
She served two years in the United States Navy, Wo-
men's Reserve, with a commission of Lt. (j.g. ). She is a
member of Phi Beta Kappa. Those are not nciirly all of
her accomplishments but they give one the necessary
background to see that her achievements have been
many. But all of these things still do not explain what
makes Dean Katherine Taylor the fascinating, vibrant
individual that she is. Her secret, which is no secret at
all, is her desire to learn. Whenever one talks with her,
it is obvious that she is interested. Each new subject
is a fresh forest to be entered and explored. Her interests
range from the daily occurrences at UNC-G to the hap-
penings of historical China. It is this last subject that
has given rise to her latest project, a China year at
UNC-G. Along with Dr. L. C. Wright, professor of
History, and Nancy CundifF, President of the UNC-G
International Relations Club, Dean Taylor has planned
a China year that will closely resemble the Japanese
year held in 1968-"69. With the current interest in China,
such a project would seem an obvious choice. Ob\ious,

that is, until one is informed that the idea for such a
year-long activity was first considered long before the
current excitement over China began. It is this type of
insight that makes knowing Dean Taylor something of
an experience in itself. I believe one of her greatest
thrills is to spring something completely unexpected upon
a friend. When the noted China authority, Edgar Snow,
had been engaged to lecture during the China year at
UNC-G, Dean Taylor calmly entered her office the
following morning and quietly made the surprise known
to all. Her calm was sharply contrasted by the exclama-
tions of persons such as myself \sho had abandoned all
hope of e\er seeing Snow in person.

But most significant to understanding the admiration
so many students as well as others hold for Dean Taylor
is her wisdom. It seems that no matter what the question,
she is either well informed as to the answer or can tell
one where to find the answer. Hers is not the t\pe of
wisdom that causes others to feel ignorant, but a t\'pe
that inxites sharing and further understanding of what-
ever problem arises.

The purpose of this brief description has not been to
flatter nor to make Dean Taylor seem like some god.
Rather it is an attempt to show that in a time when so
many individuals are looking upon students as so many
faceless numbers. Dean Katherine Ta\lor sees each stu-
dent, each person, as an indi\idual who has worth and
something of importance to tell as well as to karn. It is
this last element that is of ke\' importance. The abifitx-
to appreciate the best before looking for the worst in
others has allowed UNC-G's Dean of Student Senices
to span the so called generation gap with ease. D

Fashions, Furniture
Reflect Chinese
Influence

by Annie Lee Singletary '31

Barbara Davis Lamliert '65 models an at-Jwme goivn
tvhich reflects the Chinese influence both in pattern and
slit skirt. Barbara, mother of a daughter, models reg-
ularly for Laurie's in Greensboro's Friendly Shopping
Center.

FOR the Chinese, it's the Year of the Pig.
For Americans, it's the Year of the Chinese — in
fashions and in home furnishings, too.

Chinese influence has never actually been absent
from the scene, however, even in days of the Bamboo
Curtain. Chinese women were wearing trousers long
before the pantsuit was bom. And Chinese forms and
motifs prevailed in furniture before "early American"
was even concei\ed.

Two hundred years ago, the "Chinese craze" first
invaded British homes by way of Thomas Chippendale
and his fellow furniture-makers. So great was its impact
on Gothic England that William Whitehead, its poet-
laureate, wrote that people were making fools of them-
selves "after the Chinese manner" to the extent that
"even the most vulgar utensils are reduced to this
new-fangled standard."

Today, in dozens of furniture plants of the area, new
furniture is being made using such Chinese characteristics
as the pagoda-shape, the inward-cur\ing clubfoot table
leg, massive brass hardware, fretwork, lattice-work, cane
and bamboo. The fine art of Chinoiserie is also being
revived in elaborate decoration of cabinets, chests and
desks, and ancient Chinese screens are being copied.
Lacquer-bright red, blue, yellow and white are being

It was all going on before President Nixon announced
his intention of visiting China. But no one will deny
that the ping-pong sortie and his travel plans have
generated some of the Chinese feeling and the Chinese
"look."

With everything from Dragon Lady robes to Mao's
peasant jackets being forecast for early spring fashions,
it may be that, by the time NLxon gets to China, people
on the streets of New York will look just like those in
Peking. The mandarin collar, the coolie hat, deep arm-
holes, wide sleeves, side closings (with frogs), slit skirts,
opulent embroidery, quilting and sensuous silks and
satins — all are being promoted in the fashion world with
the noise and fanfare of a Chinese firecracker. — From
California comes word that the Chinese look is shaping
up even in swimsuits with floor-length mandarin shirts
as cover-ups.— In New York, mandarin robes are replacing
the caftan and wide, Chinese pants are even supplanting
blue jeans. — In Paris, Yves St. Laurent put coolie hats
on models for his fall opening.

New gift shops specialize in Oriental art and antiques,
Chippendale and Queen Anne furniture. A cosmetics
firm is advocating a new make-up that looks like Chinese
porcelain, and chopsticks are used to keep Chinese hair
st\les in place. Jade and i\ory jewelry is increasing in
popularity'.

The same lacquer shades such as mandarin red and
Chinese blue carry over into clothing, too, along with
fabulous Oriental prints that make fabrics a part of the
Sino-trend, too. And Chinoiserie has pro\ided patterns
for embroidery on jackets and dresses and has been the
inspiration for some fabric prints. D

Julius Foust

A Man
for His
Season

by
Mildred Harrington Lynch '13

Dr. Julius Foust, second president of the University at Greensboro.

^^\/y ANY alumnae of Dr. Foust's era confess that in
/ n I their student days they saw him mainly as a father
figure — a kind, wise counselor who was always
firm and could be stem, if occasion demanded. Almost
unanimously they say that their first feeling in recalling
Dr. Foust is one of deep aifection.

Others — especially those who found themselves on
the other side of a question — remember him with grati-
tude for according them the statvis of equals when he
disagreed with them. They tell you that the twinkle in
the gray eyes behind his glasses often contradicted his
grave manner in face-to-face encounters. Said one: "He
never condescended to us; he was always fair." Another:
"He did not force-feed us his ideas but challenged us to
think clearly and honestly on our own." And a third: "The
really big thing was. Dr. Foust knew how to listen."

To members of the faculty whom he served succes-
sively as colleague, dean, and president of the college,
he was patient with shortcomings and tolerant of frustra-
tions. However, tradition has it that during his presidency,

a discouraged or disgruntled teacher rarely talked out his
troubles with Dr. Foust without regaining his faith in
himself and enthusiasm for his job.

To his family he was a tender and loving husband and
father.

To the embattled legislators trying desperately to make
ends meet in Raleigh, he was a stubborn fellow who
would stop at nothing to wring out of them the money
he needed to provide the young women of North Carolina
with an education that would open their minds to the
future and strike ofi^ the shackles of the past. Even so,
it is unlikely that he would have been popular with
today's Women's Lib, for Julius Foust was not concerned
with enlarging the feminine ego but with extending wo-
man's vision of her potentiality to serve.

He was a practical man. At no point did he forget
that it would take money to do what he felt in his very
marrow must be done.

And where else but from the State could the money
come?

The Alumni News: Fall 1971

Very well. He would find a way to loosen the purse
strings guarded so zealously by those good men and
true on Capitol Hill. Passion lent him eloquence. One
crustv lawTTiaker is said to have complained that "Foust
would take the last dollar out of the till to give those
girls over in Greensboro a bigger laboratory or a high-
priced professor with a lot of new-fangled ideas." But
let us go back to the beginning of the Julius Foust story.

WHO were this man's forebears? What were the
circumstances of his growing up? What forces
shaped him, determined his destiny and, through him, the
destinies of thousands of children not yet born?

In her painstaking and delightful account of Dr.
Foust's life, Ethel Stephens Amett° tells us that he was
born November 23, 1865, on a farm near the little town
of Graham, North Carolina, less than a half -day's leisurely
buggy ride from the thriving metropolis of Greensboro.
His parents, both members of prominent families, were
Thomas Carbry and Mary Robbins Foust. Among his
kinsmen were such distinguished citizens as Chief Justice
Thomas Ruffin, the textile pioneer Edwin M. Holt and
the latter's son. Governor Thomas M. Holt. He was also
related to Judge Archibald D. Murphey who has been
called "the father of the North Carolina public school
system".

His mother was a graduate of Greensboro Female
Seminary, now Greensboro College; his father, a man of
exceptional moral and intellectual stamina, was largely
self-educated. Thomas Foust early made up his mind that
his children — Julius was the eldest of eight — should
have the chance at schooling that he had missed. The
cultural climate of the Foust home is admirably conveyed
by Mrs. Amett: "No matter how demanding the farm
work might be at the time, Thomas Foust took his sons
to hear every speaker of note who visited the community.
. . . Mary Robbins Foust always said to her children
'When you go to college'; never 7/ you go'. . . ."

Remember that Julius Foust was bom barely six
months after the close of the War between the States.
For many years thereafter. North Carolina had no public
schools. Education, especially at the elementary level,
was largely a matter of catch as catch can. Children were
often taught by parents and older siblings. To a degree,
this was the case in the Foust household. Fortunately,
Thomas Foust and his wife had impressed on their off-
spring that where there is a will to learn, a way can be
found.

Again relying on Mrs. Arnett, we learn that young
Jule had his first formal schooling at Graham Academy
and Graham Normal School, forerunners of Elon College.
Until he was nineteen, he worked on his father's farm in
spring and summer and attended classes a few months
in the winter. When he was twenty, with fifty cents in his
pocket and his head full of dreams, he set out for Chapel
Hill and the oldest State University in America.

When he put his case candidly to the University pres-
ident, he was advised to wait until he was better prepared
academically and better heeled financially. Undaunted,

Julius persisted, gained a rather grudging admission, and
looked up an aunt in the village who took in students as
boarders. In his aunt's house he washed dishes and
tutored her children; on the campus he picked up such
odd jobs as were available. At the end of his second year
at the University, he had earned a creditable record in
his courses, and he was free of debt.

AT this point, like many young men of his generation,
he interrupted his studies to teach a couple of years.
In 1888 with cash in the bank and high hopes for the
future, he returned to "The Hill." Two years later, he
emerged from Academe with the degree of bachelor of
philosophy. He was committed to teaching. At the tiom
of the century, public schooling was just getting under
way in North Carolina. Qualified teachers were in de-
mand. He knew he would have no trouble in landing
a job. But he would not hurry. He would look around.

By design or chance, or maybe a fittle of both, he
landed in just the right spot for a serious young peda-
gogue: he was appointed principal of the graded schools
in Goldsboro. At the end of a year, he was called to
Wilson to serve as superintendent of schools. Three
years later, when he returned to Goldsboro to assume
the superintendency of the entire school system, he took
with him not only the valuable administrative experience
he had garnered in Wilson but also a beautiful young
wife. She was the former SalHe Price, daughter of
Henry F. Price, a highly respected surveyor.

Julius Foust was fully aware of the challenge of his
new position. Goldsboro had been the training ground
for such fellow crusaders in education as Mclver, Aycock,
Alderman and Joyner. Eight busy, rewarding years fol-
lowed before he was tapped in 1902 by Charles Duncan
Mclver, founder and president of the State Normal
College at Greensboro, to head the pedagogy department.

Professor Foust was quick to realize that training
young women to teach in the struggUng pubUc school
system of the State would greatly expand the scope of his
service to North Carofina. Like Dr. Mclver, he believed
that if you educate a man, you educate an indixddual, but
if you educate a woman, you educate a family and
eventually, perhaps, a whole community.

Before the head of the pedagogy department had
time to put many of his ideas to work. Dr. Mclver, who
had not been blind to the initiative and dedication of the
newcomer, named him dean of faculty. Much of the time
Dr. Mclver was away from the campus preaching educa-
tion for women and seeking funds to implement his faith.
The dean perforce became acting president without the
title. Almost inevitably, when death cut short Dr. Mc-
. Iver's brilliant career, the younger man was thrust into
the forefront of responsibility in name as well as deed.

DR. McIvER died September 17, 1906, while on a
speaking tour with the presidential candidate, Wil-
ham Jennings Bryan. The academic year was just be-
ginning. Many decisions had to be made, countless de-

tails considered. Throughout educational circles in the
South the question was: Who will succeed the dynamic
Mclver? Where can a man be found to fill his seven-
league boots?

Many minds turned to James Y. Joyner, former dean
of faculty at the college and now State Superintendent of
Public Instruction. But when Dr. Joyner was sounded
out by friends, it was apparent that he was reluctant to
relinquish his prestigious post. As things turned out, a
successor was found at home. Few were surprised —
certainly not his loyal faculty and students — when in
May 1907, the trustees unanimously chose Julius Issac
Foust second president of the State Normal College.

Looking to the future. Dr. Foust envisioned North
Carolina as a leader in public education. But he fore-
saw that such leadership would be possible only with an
enlightened citizenship. There must be trained and ded-
icated teachers in e\ery burgeoning industrial center, in
every remote rural district in the State. The Nonnal
College must produce those teachers.

At once he set himself objectives: more buildings to
house more students; an expanded faculty- to pro\ide a
richer and more varied curriculum to Hft the Normal to
the le\el of a grade-A college; and, finally, the old stor\- —
more money.

As growing boys, young Jule and his brother Thomas,

The Alumni News: Fall 1971

11

his inseparable companion in work or mischief, loved to
roam the fields and woods of the considerable Foust
acres in search of game. Both were excellent marksmen.

AXD now, Julius Foust, college president, began to
stalk another species of game, this variety indigenous
to Capitol Hill in Raleigh. The record shows that during
his administration of nearly twenty-eight years, he at-
tended fourteen sessions of the State legislature. Small
wonder that he became known as a mighty hunter of
the mighty dollar.

Dr. Foust (he was granted an LL. D. by his alma
mater in 1910) did not hmit his quest for funds to the
State. He obtained important grants from the General
Education Board, the Carnegie Foundation and other
organizations, as well as generous gifts from individuals.
But of course the major support for the college came
from the North Carohna legislature.

During his incumbency, the annual appropriation
rose from $40,000. to $480,000. The value of the college
plant increased from less than half a million to more than
si.\ and a half miUion dollars. Student enrollment grew
from 500 to nearly 1900. By 1919, a small institution
de\oted almost entirely to teacher training had become
a great hberal arts college re-christened the North Caro-
lina College for Women. In 1921 it was admitted to
membership in the Association of Southern Colleges.
Ten years later, it was the third largest college for
women in the United States and generally recognized
throughout the nation for its high standards. Students
came to it from many states as well as from foreign
countries.

The "Normal" had come of age.

More forward strides were just ahead. Under the
North Carolina General Assembly Act of 1931, the Uni-
versity' of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, State College
at Raleigh, and the North Carohna College for Women
at Greensboro were consolidated into the Greater Uni-
versity' with that great educator and humanist. Dr. Frank
Porter Graham, at the helm. Under the merger, the
former presidents of the three institutions retained their
functions as administrators with the title of vice-president.
Dr. Foust's division was called the Woman's College of
the University of North Carolina. Later, of course, it
became simply the University of North Carolina at
Greensboro or UNC-G.

It is good to report that in 1934, the year Dr. Foust
became president emeritus, the college won a coveted
honor — one for which the retiring head had fought
long and vigorously. The administration was advised that
the college was eligible for a Plii Beta Kapjxi chapter.
And let us note here also that Dr. Foust was frequently
ahead of the times. He often spoke up for co-education,
pointing out its advantages years before the idea was
acceptable to most colleges.

It was during this period of tremendous activity and
achievement that Dr. Foust sufFcred in his personal life
two severe blows. The first was sustained when his
daughter, Mary Foust Armstrong (in honor of whom

Mary Foust Hall was subsequently named) died in 1925.
The second blow struck in 1931. His wife, the former
Sallie Price of Wilson, had long been ill. Sallie Price was
a gentlewoman and a tower of strength to her family.
Her death was not unexpected, but it found her husband
unprepared for the grief and lonehness he now faced.
His only refuge was work — more and more work.

In 1932 Dr. Foust married Miss Clora McNeill of
North Wilkesboro who for many years had been his
secretary and administrative right hand. With charac-
teristic quiet dignity, this able and gracious woman took
her place at the side of the vice-president of the Wo-
man's College. For the remainder of his life, she was to
be his ever present help and comfort.

In the succeeding years. Dr. Foust devoted much
time and energy to raising funds for Alumnae House.
He also delighted in supervising the construction and
furnishing of the building which has been cited as one
of the two most beautiful alumnae houses in America.
(The other is on the campus of Smith CoUege. ) While
engaged in these activities. Dr. and Mrs. Foust co-
operated closely with Clara Booth Byrd, for many years
secretary of the Alumnae Association and an ardent
pioneer in working for Alumnae House.

In tribute to this — his last great effort in behalf
of the college — in 1939 the Alumnae Association, led
by the Class of '35, commissioned and had hung in the
library of the house, a life-size portrait of Dr. Foust.
During the unveiling ceremony, one 'early bird' alumna
was heard to say, "We lo\e the portrait but we don't
need it to remind us of him. His hkeness is built into the
very walls of this place."

Echoing this feeling, at a dinner honoring Dr. Foust
in 1941, Dr. Graham declared, "JuUus Foust poured his
noble heart and brain and the strength of his body into
this institution which stands today as one of the great
colleges for women in the world."

At commencement this year during a get-together of
the avant garde, Anna Doggett Doggett '16 recalled the
days when the college and its second president were
both young. She said, "Dr. Foust knew almost e\eryone
by sight, if not by name. Because my father and Dr.
Foust's brother, Mr. Thomas, were old friends. Dr. Foust
kept close tabs on me, sometimes too close for comfort."

It seems that freshman Anna was called on the pres-
idential carpet one morning to explain why she had not
written home since her arrival on the campus a month
earlier. Her father had called the oflBce to ask if his
daughter were ill.

PulHng his glasses down on his nose and looking
sternly over the rims. Dr. Foust demanded, "Young lady,
didn't you realize your family would worry?"

Tearfully, Anna protested that she had written every
week. When it developed that she had posted her letters
in the wrong box at the tiny college P. O., Dr. Foust
apologized handsomely.

"Anna," he said, "I'll tell you something if you will
promise to keep it a secret." He leaned across his desk
and this time there was a t\vinkle behind his glasses.
"You see, Anna, parents and college presidents make

about as many mistakes as freshmen."

"He was the kindest of men," said Mrs. Doggett. "He
often drew checks on his personal accoimt to help stu-
dents who could turn to no one else. One of my class-
mates told me that he adxaneed her money to buy her
graduation dress. When my class asked his ad\'ice on the
choice of a gift to the college, he suggested that we
start a student loan fund from which needy girls could
borrow small sums with no cjuestions asked."

Dr. and Mrs. Foust were living in Florida when he
died on February 15, 1946. He was brought back to
Greensboro and buried not too far from the college
grounds. His son, Henry P. Foust, lives in Greensboro
where he was long engaged in the insurance business.
Clora McNeill Foust continues to live in the family
residence across the street from the old administration
building. Her interest in all that touches the Uni\ersit\'
at Greensboro remains lively, imdiminished.

Education Administrators Receive
Unique Training in New Program

by Owen Bishop

UNC-G News Bureau

A unique new doctoral program in the School of
Education, which has already stirred the interest of
educators throughout the Southeast, combines traditional
academic studies and intensive leadership training to
prepare students for service in educational administration.

Inaugurated this fall, the innovati\e programs leads
to a doctorate in education administration, but it bears
Utile resemblance to most doctoral programs — in edu-
cation or in other fields.

• No specific academic courses are required. Instead,
each student designs his own program of studies — in
whatever academic areas he feels would be beneficial
to him as an educational administrator.

• Students are selected primarily on the basis of
"key personality characteristics" which leaders need to
function most effectively. Their academic records are
given secondary consideration.

• During the fall semester, the students spend one
full day each week in special seminars and simulated
decision-making situations like those they'll face in lead-
ership positions. These experiences will be provided by
the Center for Creative Leadership, an educational in-
stitution funded by Greensboro's Smith Richardson Found-
ation to provide formal instruction in the development
of creative leaders.

Dr. Roland H. Nelson, Jr., a professor in the School
of Education who was instrumental in planning the new
program, serves as its director. A veteran educational
administrator and a former president of Marshall Uni-
versity, Dr. Nelson says the inspiration for offering a
totally new kind of training for administrators stemmed
from the fact that other graduate level programs simply
were not doing the job.

"From my experience, I knew that there weren't any
programs which were really preparing the kinds of people
that were needed to fill these positions," he said. "If the
programs did prepare their students for such leadership

Dr. Roland Nelson, creator of the new program, received his
undergraduate degree from Duke University, his master of educa-
tion degree from the University of Virginia, and his doctorate of
education from Harvard. He was chairman of the Department
of English at Duke University, then served as president of Richmond
Professional Institute, and later Marshall University in Huntington,
West Virginia, before joining the UNC-C faculty in the fall of 1970.

roles, it was completely accidental and incidental. It
wasn't by design."

Good Leaders Sought

One of the reasons for this, he suggested, is the high
premium placed on academic achievement under most
orthodox programs. "It doesn't necessarily follow that a
good academician will be a good leader. 'We're talking
about a different breed of cat. I'd say there is a minimum
level of competence that he must have but once that
minimum is reached, the personality variables are much
more important."

In addition, traditional programs in educational ad-
ministration often have denied advanced training to stu-
dents with high potential for leadership because they
failed to take certain prescribed education courses, Dr.
Nelson said.

UNG-G's new program features no specific pre-
requisites except for a completed master's degree. Thus,
at least theoretically, it is open to students who would
not be accepted by other doctoral programs.

The personality characteristics sought in the six stu-
dents who were admitted for the first year of the program
include "a strong drive to become a leader" and what
Dr. Nelson called a "tolerance for ambiguity. . . . "We
wanted the person who doesn't need a lot of pat answers.
In fact, he's challenged by a situation where many times
there simply aren't any answers, " he said.

In the creative leadership sessions, the students join
men and women from various walks of life in exercises
which are designed to point up their strengths and weak-
nesses and to offer them opportimities for developing
more effective leadership behavior.

These sessions are conducted at the Center for
Creative Leadership, which is housed in a modem
building on a wooded, lakeside tract just north of
Greensboro.

The institution began operating last January, with
a staff headed by Dr. James N. Farr, technical director.
It conducts research in the areas of creativity and leader-
ship and offers seminars to prepare participants for
leadership roles.

Dr. Robert G. Dom, director of the center's leader-
ship development program, says its first aim is to help

each enrollee see his own weaknesses so that "his own
recognition of his needs will motivate him to learn."

Learning by Experience

The whole process, he says, is one of learning at least
partially by experience so the participants will come to
know "how to learn from experience outside of the class-
room and through day-to-day experiences."

In simulations, the student can see where he has prob-
lems in leadership and where some of his strong points
are, according to Dr. Dom. "He can then concentrate his
efforts on those areas where he seems to be having the
most difficulty. We want to try to get across to the par-
ticipants the idea of trying to be more creative, more in-
novative — stretching in terms of setting their goals further
than they would ordinarily think of setting them."

The students are involved in intricate, make-believe
situations which place a high demand on their leadership
skills and provide extensive feedback regarding their
performance. These exercises may feature simulated
business situations or simulated societal leadership posi-
tions. Many of the program sessions will be video taped
so the participants can review their performances for
weak spots.

Why use video tape? Dr. Dom says it is helpful
because "you've got a record of the actual performance"
and because "it's easier emotionally for a participant to
discuss what he sees on that screen and how that
character on the screen is behaving than it is to talk
about how he behaved in the situation."

Dr. Nelson is quite enthusiastic about the role of the
center in the doctoral program because the learning
experiences it will provide for the students will be a
valuable contribution to the program. "We're getting a
service here that would cost the University several
hundreds of thousands of dollars to duplicate — and
then it might not be as good."

Dr. Nelson himself went through a condensed version
of the center's course and says he "found it to be one
of the most valuable experiences of my life."

Feedback Sessions

As a follow-up to the sessions at the center, Dr. Nelson
conducts a seminar for all students in the new program to

give them some "feedback" between personal experiences
and intellectual activities.

The students also get regular critiques from the director
about their performance in every area of the program.
"I have to get to know each of these people quite well.
We have to get to the point that our egos don't get in the
way and I can sit down with a guy and say, 'Look, you
simply bomb out when you try that.' "

Because of this personal approach, the initial class of
students was limited to six. "I don't think we could really
work with many more than six and do the kinds of things
we're talking about. This is such a highly personalized
thing," Dr. Nelson said.

One of the reasons for using this approach is that it
will permit the students to reveal who they really are.
In a more formal situation, the students might hesitate to
reveal their true personalities because it could adversely
affect their grades, he said. Under the new UNC-G pro-
gram, students will be evaluated on a pass-not pass basis.

In addition to the academic studies and leadership
training, students in the program also make up an in-
structional team to teach the beginning education course
to undergraduates.

The six doctoral candidates have complete respon-
sibihty for organizing instruction for about 130 students.
They work with them in a single group at times and
break them into smaller groups at other times. The
graduate instructors are evaluated for the effectiveness of
this team instruction, especially on how well they em-
phasize the strengths of the team's members and minimize
their weaknesses.

Dissertation Requirement

The initial class of students is expected to complete
its course work next summer, leaving only the disserta-
tion requirement to be met. Due to the unorthodox nature
of the program, an action-oriented project might be re-
quired in place of the traditional dissertation. For example,
a student might be working in an administrative post
and zero-in on a particular dilemma, keeping a journal
on the steps taken with regard to it. The journal would be
reviewed to determine "how astute he had been in seeing
why his decisions turned out to be right or wrong."

In the second year of the program. Dr. Nelson hopes
to inject some important new elements through a co-

operative arrangement with the U.S. Army. If the plan is
approved by the Department of Defense, education
officers with the Army would be brought into the doc-
toral program while students who have completed the
training would be offered internships at Army posts
around the world.

Dr. Nelson, who came to UNC-G last year from
\f arshall, called the new program "something I've wanted
to try for some time." He said he was refreshed to see
the idea for it get such a warm reception at UNC-G. D

Six Candidates in Search
of a Doctorate

The six students who are enrolled in UNC-C's fledgling program
in educational administration are all male and all are married, but
here the similarity ends. Their backgrounds, what they seek in the
program and their ultimate goals vary widely, as the following
statements show. Dr. Nelson wanted at least one woman student
included in the initial group. Although he had several inquiries
from women, none enrolled in this year's program.

Gail Schoppert l^as a summer vocation, acting, icluch
tlie entire family shores. Last summer they all appeared
in the outdoor drama, "Trumpet in the Land," the story
of Moravian missionaries in Ohio, in tvliich Gail played
the leading role of David Zeisherger. He and Jiis three
children (ages 10, 8 and 6) uill be seen in the University
Theatre production of "The Music Man" in Taylor
Braiding Theatre October 20-30, Gail in the role of
Mayor Slunn. He and his icife, liho is a kindergarten
teacher, met in Paris ichere both were teaching. Their
three children were born overseas.

I differ from the others enrolled in the Educational
Leadership Development program in that I am in my
third year of doctoral study, concluding, rather than
beginning, my program. I was on campus last year as
a Teaching Fellow during the time that Dr. Nelson was
laying plans for the program, and I asked to be a part
of it, because I saw a potential for further development
of an important administrative area — leadership. I plan
to write my dissertation on some aspect of leadership
behavior.

I am a native of Oregon and hold the B.S. in physical
education from Oregon State University, and the M.A.
in physical education from Ohio State. After two years
of teaching in Oregon I joined the U.S. Dependents
Schools, European Area, planning to teach overseas for
a couple of years. Ultimately I remained in this military
dependents school system for ten years, working as a
teacher and coach for over five years, as a Curriculum
Associate in a District Superintendent's office for a year
and a half, as an Assistant Principal for a year, and then
as principal of Livorno American High School in Italy
for two years. In 1969 I returned to the United States
for doctoral study, selecting UNC-G because of the

presence of Dean Robert M. O'Kane, who had previously
served as Director of the European Dependents Schools.

Over the years my chief hobby activity has gradually
shifted from athletics to the field of drama. My entire
family has spent the last two summers acting in the out-
door di-ama. Trumpet in the Latul, in New Philadelphia,
Ohio. We are also active in community and university
theater.

I hope to use my Ed.D. to teach education with an
emphasis on school administration at the university level.
My experience thus far with the Educational Leadership
Development Program leads me to beUeve that it will
be of considerable benefit in achie\'ing this goal. D

James M. Howard, a native of Pink Hill, is a grad-
uate of East Carolina University ichere he also received
his masters degree following a three-year period of serv-
ice with the Army in Germany. He took courses in edu-
cational administration and sociology at Duke Univers-
ity during summer leaves from liis duties as guidance
director in Duplin County and principal in Pamlico
County High School. Since 1965 he has been guidance
supervisor for the Lejeune High School, part of a de-
pendents school system ichicli consists of five elementary
schooh, one junior high and one high sclwol. His wife
and two children live in Camp Lejeune.

I am now on sabbatical leave for one year from the
Camp Lejeune Dependents School. Before enrolling in
LINC-Gs program in educational administration, I in-
vestigated fifteen doctoral programs in education from
which I selected UNC-G's as being superior in the
specific area of leadership that I wanted. My chief in-
terest is in administration, and 1 will be returning to
Camp Lejeune in an administi-ative capacity following
completion of the program. My ultimate goal is to be a
school superintendent. D

John S. Callebs of Huntington, West Virginia, is on
leave from his duties as Director of Development at
Marshall University where lie worked witl} Roland
Nelson during Dr. Nelsons presidency at Marshall. It
was throug]} Dr. Nelson that he first learned of the new
program in educational administration and applied for
admission as one of the first six candidates. His wife
and children live in Huntington.

I have been in college teaching and administration
for twelve years although my background is largely in
the area of political science ( I have sevent\' hours beyond
my masters in the field.) As a candidate for public office
and as a member of the West Virginia Board of Pro-
bation and Parole, I ha\e learned that many educational
decisions are basically political decisions, and I hope to
merge the study and experiences I have had in politics
with those in education since each shapes and helps to
influence the other.

The program in educational administration will en-
able me to take advantage of past experiences, to take
courses which will permit me to build on those experi-
ences, and to share and compare my experiences with

others. The new program in educational administration
is being watched by other schools, and I would predict
that if the quaUty of expansion continues, UNC-G will
be the most imitated school in the field of education.
A final factor which greatly influenced me to come
to Greensboro is the quality of the School of Education
faculty. Dean O'Kane has recruited an impressive array
of talent to add to an already strong faculty. D

Bill Lang ivas bom and raised in Rochester, New York.
He began his college studies at High Point College,
where he met lus icife, while serving with the Air Force
outside Winston-Salem. He continued his studies follow-
ing his Air Force discharge and, after graduation, began
teaching and at the same time taking graduate courses
at UNC-G. At present, lie commutes from Lexington
lohere he is in the field of adult education at Davidson
Community College.

It is not often that one has the opportunity to follow
a course of study that involves the calibre of faculty
associated with this program on the UNC-G campus
and facilities such as those offered at the Richardson
Foundation's Center for Creative Leadership. Although
I had no intention of pursuing another degree that
merely meant acquiring ".\" number of hours, I welcomed
the chance to become a part of this experience which
offers both professional and personal growth.

I am committed to the broad field of education, and,
as such, I would hope to bring whatever talents I possess
to the area of quahty leadership. My interests lie in
community colleges and technical institutes, specifically
the administration of these institutions.

Cliff Lowery of Raleigh has been director of student
activities at Guilford College for the past five years. He
received his undergraduate degree at Wake Forest Uni-
versity and liis master in education at UNC-G. He
taught in Hanes Junior High in Winston-Salem and was
Director of Special Programs at N.C. State University
prior to joining the administrative staff at Guilford in
1967. He .served as dean of the Eastern Music Festival
on the Guilford campus for the past two .sutnmers.

How did I hear about the program? After a two-year
respite from the classroom pursuits, last spring I grew

restless and began to look for programs in Higher Edu-
cation Administration. The University's program was
brought to my attention by a newspaper article in the
Greensboro Daily News, and I applied immediately.

What str(>ngths do I hope to develop? It is my hope
that the new program will allow me to integrate my
previous career, education, and community experiences
into a working model of leadership and administration.
I wish to improve my abilities to facilitate the operation
of systems and the input of indi\iduals into a situation.
I hope to accomplish this goal by learning more about
the way institutions operate and the way that individuals
respond to the stimuli within their en\ironment.

What are future plans? I hope to adapt any new
technicjues and theories for incorporation into a course
that I teach at Guilford College called "Leadership-
Communication." Beyond that I hope to become a more
effective educational administrator, perhaps in student
personnel or as an executive officer of communit)'
college. D

Freeman Jones is a native of Reidsville, married and
the father of one daughter. He attended Reidsville
.schools and received his undergraduate degree from
Shaw University. He was a member of the faculty at
Lincoln School in the Rockingham County administrative
unit prior to enrolling in graduate school at Temple
University. After receiving his M.Ed, degree from Tem-
ple, he returned to Lincoln school as principal.

For the past six years I have been principal of
Lincoln School in Rockingham County. Two years ago
I was admitted to UNC-G's Sixth \vi\r Program, an
advanced course in administration with broadening
courses in research and curriculum, leading to super-
intendent certification.

As part of this course of stud\- I enrolled in Dr.
Roland Nelson's course in "The Organization and Ad-
ministration of Public Education." It was Dr. Nelson
who first told me of the new doctoral program in edu-
cational administi-ation which was to be inaugurated on
the Greensboro campus this >ear. The format was so
intriguing and unique, I applied for admittance and,
subsetjuenth-, w^as selected to participate in this innova-
tive undertaking. Ultimately, I want to ser\e at the college
le\el in either a teaching or an administrative position.

Student Health Center
Seeks New Image

by Dr. William McRae, Director

THE ultimate goals of a comprehensive health
program for the academic community, as recom-
mended by the American College Health Associ-
ation, are as follows : ( 1 ) to promote and maintain those
conditions which will permit and encourage each in-
dividual to realize optimum physical, emotional, intel-
lectual, and social well-being, (2) to control those factors
in the community and its environment which may com-
promise this well-being, (3) to guide the individual in
the acceptance of health as a positive value in life, and
(4) to stimulate the capacity of the individual to make
healthful adaptations to the environment. In other words,
these four points speak primarily of education, attitudes
and preventive medicine.

In contrast, in the past, apparent goals in student
health have been: (1) to treat physical illness and injury;

(2) to decide whether it was safe for the student to
participate in the various types of physical education;

(3) to be responsible for immunizations; and (4) to
handle psychiatric emergencies.

Today things are different — times have changed. We
still ha\e to do these traditional things and do them well,
using all of the ad\ances of modern medicine. But noic,
because of changing mores; because of world tensions
and the sensitivity of these young people to these ten-
sions; because of the very real threat of the destruction
of life as we know it, either by nuclear weapons or
ecology problems; because of our se.x and drug-oriented
societ}'; and because of the deterioration of the family
unit; there now exists on our University campuses a
mental health problem so vast that it's hard to conceive.
And because of the communication gap (or generation
gap as it's commonly referred to), much tension and
distrust between student and administrative officials (in-
cluding physicians) has arisen. This distrust has made
it almost impossible to aid these young people before
they reach the dire emergency stage.

The vast majority of our students are fine young peo-
ple with high ideals, who wish to build and create rather
than destroy or be destroyed. And they, whether we like
it or not, will be the teachers of our children and grand-
children, the law makers and the leaders of tomorrow.
They are worth listening to — and we'd better believe it!

Modern student health programs are being devised
all over the country to try to bridge the generation gap
that exists between the student and his physician for,

unless this is accomplished, the average student will re-
fuse to seek the aid of the Health Service and, therefore,
their physical and emotional needs often are not cared
for properly.

Some of the new concepts which we are adopting are :

• We are trying to treat the college student as an
adult, for in most respects, certainly biologically speaking,
they are adults.

• We pubUsh a brochure and make it available to all
members of the administration, faculty, and student body.
This brochure states specific policies of the Student Health
Service and stresses confidentiality — in other words, we
let the student know that he or she can come to us with
any problem and not be reported to their parents or to
the Uni\ersity administration. (Note: the contents of this
brochure are now included in the Student Handbook.)

• We have regular meetings with student leaders and
allow them to help fonnulate our poHcies.

• We have on our campus a successful birth control
program and an excellent counseling system for those
girls who find themselves unmarried and pregnant.

• This fall we are hoping to implement our own drug
abuse program with the help of our new part-time
psychiatrist, who is very experienced in this area. We
are, also, planning a broad community psychiatry pro-
gram which will invoKe various group therapy sessions
for patients as well as coordinating and training sessions
for both student and staff counselors. This is a completely
new concept in student health with the primary goal of
trying to eliminate sources of mental health problems.

• We try to educate the students concerning various
health problems by making a\ailable published material
and by meeting with groups informalh' to discuss various
questions. An example of the last concept is the sex
information manual that we plan to make available to
our students in the near future. Of course, all of these
things are done with the approval of the University ad-
ministration.

• But, probably more important than all of these
other things, we try hard to be sympathetic listeners, of-
fering advice and counsel where advice and counsel are
indicated but, at the same time, being slow to judge or
condemn where mistakes have already been made. D

TJie new Student Health Director,
Dr. William McRae, received his
M.D. from the Bowman Gray Sclwol
of Medicine and did Jtis intern.^hip
at N.C. Baptist Hospital, Winston-
Salem. He icas a navy medical officer
in Sanford, Fla., for a year prior to
joining the UNC-CH staff as assi.<itant
university physician for four years
and joining the health service on
campus in Augu.st 1970. In an inter-
view, he answered some questions
tohich alumni have been asking
about the health .service.

Q. You mentioned ambulance service. Does the Uni-
versity have an ambulance?

A. In a manner of speaking, yes. Our "ambulance"
actually is merely a vehicle capable of transporting bed-
ridden patients. It is a service operated by male students
with first aid training . . . some of them work part-
time for the county ambulance service. The possibility'
of converting our "ambulance" into a true emergency
vehicle is being considered.

Q. You wrote that you meet regularly with the chair-
man of the student-faculty Health Information Committee
and the SGA Executive Secretary. Are there other groups
that you work with on campus?

A. We work closely with the campus ministers and
very closely with the clinical psychologist in the Coun-
seling Center which is housed on the ground floor of
the Health Center. We also have the services of a part-
time psychiatrist, Dr. Robert Whitener, who is exper-
ienced in drug abuse, group therapy and community
psychiatry. By leaving the office environment and going
out among the students on campus, he hopes to seek out
mental problems before they become acute. He will
establish communication with counselors and dorm pres-
idents and give advice on handling difficult situations
that might arise.

Q. What does the birth control program provide?
A. Any student who has a question regarding birth
control is invited to consult one of the four Student
Health Center physicians. Each case will be handled
by the physician in an ethical, professional and highly
individualized manner.

Q. What is your procedure in handling cases involving
the pregnancy of an unmarried student?
A. A pregnant, unwed student is encouraged by anyone
on campus in whom she ma\' confide to present herself
as soon as jxissible to the Health Service for diagnostic
confirmation and assistance in handling her problem. No
disciplinary action will be taken against a student who
presents herself to the Service, and administrative officials

will not be notified. If she receives an unsp>ecified "medi-
cal withdrawal" from school because of pregnancy, she
will be eligible for readmission as long as other require-
ments for readmission are in order. In even,- instance
she will be encouraged to inform her parents, but the
parents will not be notified by the physician unless she
requests that this be done. She will also be referred to
a campus minister for further counseling and help.
Q. Have you any policy in regard to illegal abortions?
A. If any University oificial or student learns that a
student has received an illegal abortion, it is the respon-
sibilitv of the individual to refer the woman to the Health
Service for confidential medical evaluation.
Q. The student health fee of $56 is almost twice the
charge made in 1966-67 when students paid 830 for health
service. Does the health service receive income from any
other source?

A. The General Assembly in 1967 voted to discontinue
support of health services on all state campuses. This
made it necessarv to raise student fees to support the
health service without legislative help. Our entire opera-
tion, including drug supplies, equipment, and salaries of
all personnel, including four full-time physicians, two
part-time psychiatrists, and a part-time radiologist, is
solely dependent upon student health fees. Charges are
kept at a minimum to defray actual expenses, so students
must pay extra for certain drugs and services such
as laboratory tests which must be done in off-campus
laboratories.

Q. Are you notified when students are admitted with
previous records of mental illness and psychiatric care?
A. The medical form which each student must furnish
from his phxsician has three questions relating to mental
illness and psychiatric care, so we have a record of the
past history. We are hoping in the near future to have
students with mental health problems admitted pro-
visionally . . . that is, they would be required to place
themselves under our psychiatric care. If they fail to
do so, thev would be subject to dismissal.

UNC-G Students
% the Ballot Box

by Vickie Kilgore 72

young people supported Sen. George McGovern as a
presidential candidate. Sen. Edmund Muskie was a sec-
ond favorite.

Change in the political system is the order of the day.
UNC-G students want change, but no revolutionary
attitude in politics is evident on the Greensboro campus,
according to Student Reporter Vickie Kilgore's survey.

According to a sampling of UNC-G politicos,
many student voters intend to take a greater
stand in elections than their parents ever have.
The 1972 elections will gi\e them the opportun-
ity to begin.
^^ , Of the 11.3 million young people now elig-

^^::i^ ible to vote, over 6,000 are on the campus of
UNC-G. Almost one-half of the students inter-
viewed are registered \'oters in their home communities
and one-half of these students have aligned themselves
with a political party.

The presidential elections have excited student voters
who are concerned about their vote in the presidential
primaries as well as in the national elections.

"Students still feel they are second-rate citizens until
they are 21," said Rachel Arthur, a sophomore from
Richmond, Va.

"College students are discriminated against with the
lack of absentee \oting laws in many counties," Rachel
explained. "These election boards are pre\'enting many
young people who are away in college from \'oting in
the presidential primaries."

Sophomore Becky Mears from Decorah, Iowa, is a
registered voter who is eager to exercise her new
privilege, but she will forego voting in the primaries
above, charging absentee \oting. "It would be too com-
plicated to have student absentee ballots for the pres-
idential primaries only," Becky insisted, "and it would
be unfair for out-of-state students to vote in primaries
here since they don't pay taxes."

Registered voters at UNC-G have definite political
ideas. Of those questioned, nearly two-thirds do not
want President Richard Nixon reelected. Most of the

Young voters today often describe them-
selves as more liberal than their parents. Al-
though these students feel they are "influenced"
and often "lean toward" the politics of their
parents, they claim their parents are "too right
wing" to receive complete agreement from
youth.

Alison Woodruff, freshman from Roanoke
Rapids, N. C, noted, "I usually agree with my parents
on general issues — such as removal of our troops from
Viet Nam — but we frequently disagree on the par-
ticulars — such as when and how."

Other young people complain their parents are not
"aware of matters concerning the future." A sampling
indicates these "matters" vary from pollution to over-
population to nuclear devastation.

Although most of the students interviewed were
vehement about national issues and leaders, most of
these same \oters were unenthusiastic about voting in
local elections. Even students from communities support-
ing the lowered voting age were apathetic about the
power of their vote on the local level.

Here, too, the major gripe of young people is the
lack of absentee voting laws. "It's too much trouble to
go all the way home just to vote in local elections," said
Joy Hamilton, senior from Magnolia, N. C. "Howe\'er I
would go home for a national election," Joy added.

Another girl felt those young people remaining at
home would not bother about the local issues because
they were not considered significant enough to get in-
volved in and they were actually uninvolved in the issues.

In a contrasting light, Kathy \'on Lindem,
a sophomore whose parents live in Belgium,
is looking for a permanent residence in which
she can vote locally.

Kathy wants to vote in Greensboro since
she liN'es in the city all year except for short
vacations. However her parents, who are U.S.
citizens, are non-residents of a state; so Kathy
cannot vote anywhere in any election until she becomes
21 and is able to establish permanent residence in a

state. At present the state election board is examining
Kathy's situation.

Ed Saunders, a sophomore from Greensboro, N. C,
reveals another positive aspect of students seeking com-
munity involvement.

As a member of the executive committee of the
Guilford County Non-Partisan Voter Registration Drive,
Ed feels the student voter campaign is "a good way to
get involved in local level poBtics."

"It's voluntary," Ed explained, "and it's interesting."

The Guilford County student voter registration cam-
paign is a part of a state-wide campaign called the
Campaign For Young Voters.

With headquarters at Chapel Hill, N. C, the newly
founded campaign is a non-partisan, non-profit organ-
ization dedicated to registering young people to vote.
Its purpose is to assist in organizing and implementing
local voter registration drives tlirough the state of
North Carolina.

UNC-G recently hosted the group's organizational
meeting during which 1.5 local contacts reported the
progress of \'oter registration in their specific areas.

Jim Van Hecke, Jr., Greensboro's campaign represen-
tative, predicted the registration of at least 175,000 new
voters in the state of North Carolina and 2.5,000 of these
in Guilford County.

Nancy Moore, editor of The Carohnian, said the stu-
dent newspaper will print a series of articles in No-
vember to encourage student \oter registration.

Nancy also hopes the paper can sponsor \'isits to the
campus by a number of county election registrars to
register in-state students from outside Guilford County.

As one girl noted, "Things are looking up for stu-
dents. Now that we have the vote politicians are talking
to us. It's up to us to put our action and our votes where
our mouths have been." D

Our student reporter, Vickie
Kil^ore 72, a native of Bristol,
Tenn., will receive an AB in
English in January and has aspi-
rations to work abroad. The last
two summers she was a news
reporter for Bristol newspapers.

PLANS are in the making for a course on women to
be added to next semester's curriculum. The
political science department will offer the course
which will be listed as "Women in Politics". Dr. Margaret
Hunt and part-time professor Joan Davis are studying
syllibi from similar courses offered at other colleges.

The idea came from a Political Science departmental
meeting at which major students met the faculty meml^ers
of that department. Dr. Da\id Olson, Head of thi- Polit-
ical Science Department, gave the students an opportun-
ity to ask questions. Patsy Brison, a senior, proposed
a women's studies course which brought a quick response
from Dr. Hunt and Miss Da\is since it coincides with
their personal interests.

Women students who had expressed interest in a
course on women have met with Dr. Hunt and Miss
Davis after the two faculty members and the students
held separate meetings to share their ideas.

Dr. Hunt will teach the course and it will include an
examination of sex roles and a history of the women's
movement, past and present, in the Ihiited States. Dr.
Hunt wants the course to appeal to men as well as women
because she feels that men ha\e as large a stake in
women's history as women.

The possibility of following China Year w itii a
year dedicated to women was discussed and was en-
thusiastically recei\'ed. The suggestion was made that
it be tied in with the two-year emphasis on women
which is planned as a proji-ct of the Center for Con-
tinuing Education.

Anotlicr topic which was discussed was a strateg\-
for integrating courses on women into the general college
curriculum. Dr. Hunt is interested in a program of in-
terdisciplinar)' courses which will be tied together in a
way similar to the International Studies Program. She
pointed out that this would be a better strateg\- than
ha\ing unrelated courses offered in the separate de-
partments. n

Young Democrats Club On Campus

A university chapter of the Young Democrats Club
was organized on campus Wednesday, October 6, in an
effort to encourage the active participation of students
in political aflairs. The group will encourage all students,
regardless of political affiliation, to register to vote and
to become involved in political issues. The YDC plans
to invite as many political candidates as possible to be

Campus

Ethnomusicology Introduced

Ethnomusicology, a new field of
stud\ , is being offered by the School
of Music this fall. Taught by Assist-
ant Professor E. Thomas Stanford,
who joined the faculty from the Uni-
versity of Texas, ethnomusicolog\' is
the study of the role played bv music
in primitive cultures.

An increase in interest in primitive
art, particularly African art, is the
reason for this addition to the music
curriculum, according to Music
School Dean Lawrence Hart. The
ethnomusicology courses begin with
Latin American music; the influence
of African forms will be introduced
later.

Mr. Stanford is a graduate of die
University of Southern California.
He has studied at Juilliard and com-
pleted advanced studv in anthro-
polog\' and folklore at the Mexican
National University. Prior to his
Texas appointment, he was musicol-
ogist at the National Institute of
Anthropology, Mexico City.

Gifts and Grants

Mrs. Joseph McKinley Bryan of

Greensboro has made a gift of stock
to the University which has been
applied to the Kathleen Price Bryan
Professorship in Financial Aft'airs.
Sale of the stock brought 845,573,
which brings the total endowment of
the Bryan Professorship to 8100,500.
Primarily intended to give young
women a greater understanding of
financial matters, the Bryan courses,
which were established 12 years ago
under the administration of the
School of Business and Economics,

were in the lead in the current up-
surge of interest in consumer educa-
tion. In addition, the Bryan Lectures,
which are open to the public, bring
wideh'-known experts to the campus
in the spring and fall. Dr. Thomas
J. Leary has been Bryan professor
since 1968.

A National Science Foundation
grant of $24,900 has been given to
Dr. M. Russell Harter of the Depart-
ment of Psychology at UNC-G. Dr.
Harter is studying the relationship
between visual perception and the
human brain's electrical activity.

The grant is a renewal of a $5.3,000
NSF grant made to Dr. Harter two
years ago. The renewal will fund the
research project through February
1973.

Dr. Harter says his basic research
is concerned with whether there is
a characteristic response of the brain
to \ isual perception.

Henry A. Fescue, a High Point
industrialist, and his wife have made
a $10,000 gift to the Home Eco-
nomics Foundation to establish an
endowed scholarship in interior de-
sign.

The scholarship will be a memorial
to his mother, Mrs. Vera Annfield
Foscue, who attended State Normal
and Industrial College, now UNC-G,
from 1896-98.

DE Teacliers Trained

An increasing need for distributive
education teachers in North Carolina
has led to the addition of tsvo mem-
bers to the facult\' of the School of

Business and Economics at UNC-G.
Dr. Stephen R. Lucas, associate
professor, and Benton E. Miles, as-
sistant professor, will teach courses
related to distributive teacher educa-
tion.

Primarily a high school level pro-
gram, DE courses enrolled 11,000
N. C. students in 1970. Usually taught
in a cooperative manner, the courses
give in-school instruction in business
practice and on-the-job-training with
local merchants. Technical schools
and community colleges also provide
this education.

Dr. Lucas received his Ph.D. from
Ohio State University and taught
previously at Virginia Polytechnic
Institute. Miles recently completed
work in the doctoral program at Ohio
State. Both have extensive experience
in DE training.

A Service Record

The name of his place of employ-
ment has changed four times, but
Lewis Gilcrist has always worked in
the same place — the college laundry
— from 1919 until his retirement in
August. From State Normal and In-
dustrial School to UNC-G, and under
six different supervisors, Mr. Gilcrist,
who came to the laundry at age 14,
has set a record for years of service
on this campus, and has tied for sec-
ond place in length of service for an
N. C. state employee.

He worked 34 \ears before missing
a day for sickness, then marked up
another 17 absence-free years. He
gives credit to Mrs. Gilcrist's cook-
ing for his good health, and to his
father's advice that he remain at the
college for staying with the laundry
all these years. Some of the girls call
him "grandpa," he says, and he's
afraid he'd get lost on today's huge
campus, but Mr. Gilcrist remains
stable in a changing world, and
looks forward eagerly to whatever
the future brings.

"The New Hermeneulics" are, 1-r: Scott Wilkinson, Anna Beth Swain, Curtis Campbell,
Kathy Milligan and Mike Commee.

Student Ministry in Music

Two UNC-G students, Anna Beth
Swain and Curtis Campbell, spent
last summer serving a imique min-
istry on the Outer Banks as part of
a quintet that sang rousing folk
music for tourists visiting The Circus
Tent. Playing guitars, bass, jangles,
drums and the dulcimer, they per-
formed three times nightlv, led folk
worship and staged such musical as
the rock opera, Jesus Christ Super-
star for some 65,000 \'isitors during
the season.

The Circus Tent, erected in the
shadow of the Wright Memorial on
the hillside of man's first airplane

flight, offered a fresh approach to
Christian outreach. The tent also
sheltered an ice cream parlor serving
fancy sundaes, shakes and other
dairy delights, such as Fat Lady
Sundae, Two-Headed Clow.v Cones,
Jolly Green Giants and Strong
Man Milkshakes.

Curtis, a nati\e of Raleigh, who
has been with the group t\\o \ears,
and Anna Beth, who joined the
group last summer, are both soph-
omores. During the winter the New
Hermeneutics will fill engagements
for religious groups and on college
campuses in North Carolina. D

"Thoughts in Black"

One of the goals of the Neo-Black
Society at UNC-G was realized last
spring with the publication of
"Thoughts in Black," a collection of
poetry and art by black students on
the Greensboro campus.

The preface to the magazine notes,
'These writings and pictures are ex-
pressions of our feelings toward situ-
ations that we have experienced not
only as black students on a predom-
inantly white campus but as a black
individual growing up in America.
In these works you will see thoughts
on our past, comments on our present
and hopes for our future."

The first poem in the collection,
"It Must Be Nice," by rising senior
Larry Williamson from Yanceyville,
is reprinted here with the author's
permission.

It Must Be Nice

It must be nice to ride on the rainbows

and to play on the moon.
It must be nice to live in the huge mansions of wood

and stone and to have spacious green lawns in

front of your homes.
It must be nice to be able to go to any sea shore

and enjoy the warm sand

and the cool breeze.
It must be nice to climb any mountain

and to cross any stream — if you please.
It must be nice to have the unspoken privilege to go to

any school without breaking the traditional rules.

It must be nice to pursue a dream as free
as the wind and as eternal as the sun.

It must be nice to know that your goals

and aspirations are your greatest limitations.

Since all of these things are true, then it
must be nice, oh so nice, to be white.

Or is it?!!

uate work in French at UNC-CH. She
taught languages in high school before en-
tering service in 1942 as a second lieuten-

Alumni Director

During The Yeabs since Laura Weill Cone
'10 wrote THE COLLEGE ( now UNFS'ERSITY)
SONG successive generations of students
have vocally promised that "Our motto
'Service' will remain, And service we will
do." As alumni the once-students have kept
their word: they have served. The multi-
plicity of this service defies cataloguing.

Annually since 1960 the Alumni Associ-
ation through the Alumni Service Awards
Program has formally recognized the serv-
ice which selected alumni have rendered.
Mrs. Cone, who wrote the song, recei\ed
the first award. Thirty-three others have
been similarly honored during subsequent
years; May Lovelace Tomlinson 07, Enuna
Lewis Speight Morris '00, Jane Summerell
'10, Clara Byrd '13, Virginia Terrell Lath-
rop '23, Sadie McBrayer McCain '16, Jua-

There are many more alumni who merit
similar honor, but to be considered for
an Alumni Service Award, alumni must be
nominated. Forms which are available in the
Alumni Office are used for the presentation
of nominees. The forms when completed
are sent to the Chairman of the Alumni
Service Awards Committee which, after
study and consultation, makes recommenda-
tions to the Alumni Board of Trustees
which has the final authority of decision.
Nominations should be submitted by Janu-
ary 1.

Mary Lib Manning Slate '61 (Mrs. Mar-
vin L. Slate, Jr., 855 Westover Ave., Win-
ston-Salem 27104) is Chairman of the Serv-
ice Awards Committee for 1971-72. The

Salem, are serving with her: Margaret
Bloodworlh Glenn '47, Anne Pearce Weaver
'42, Martha McRae Alsup '37, Peggy Best

Presidential Profile

Martha Fowler McNair

by Sarah Denny Williamson

Twenty-six years ago a young, ihough'-
ful, and energetic freshman from Durham,
North Carolina, entered the halls of Bailey
Dorm to begin over two decades of serv-
ice to "Woman's College." Today Martha

Fowler McNair serves as president of the
UNC-G Alumni Association.

On campus during those four full and
fun-packed years, Martha served as a Jun-
ior House President, Student Government
President, and was elected everlasting presi-
dent of the class of '49.

With her BSSA degree and teacher's
certificate in hand, Martha set out for
Laurinbiirg and a teaching career in the
local high school. But within two years,
her plans changed. She met and married
Jolin F. McNair, III. Thus began another
career — that of an active, energetic, and
involved housewife and mother.

In 1952 son Frank was bom and three
years later came daughter Elizabeth. And
as the years have passed, each member
of this family has given of himself to others.

lohn, a senior vice-president of Wachovia
Bank and Trust Company, was long active
in the town of Laurinburg. He worked
with the Boy Scouts, served as president
of the Chamber of Commerce and president
of the Rotary Club. He has been active in
the Jaycees at the state level. He has also
served on the State Highway Commission
and is presently a member of the Board of
Trustees of St. Andrews Presbyterian Col-
lege. John, too, is a man of wide horizons.

And while Martha kept the home fires
burning, she also kept alert and interested.
She brought knowledge and service to the
community — president of the Junior Serv-
ice League, vice-president of the Women
of the Church, and member of the Pines of
Carolina Girl Scout Council. Active in the

Presbyterian Church, a leader in community
work, Martha still remained loyal to UNC-
G. She always was ready to serve her
alma mater — class agent, county chairman
of Annual Giving, member of the Annual
Giving Board, and secretary of the Board
of Trustees.

Martha and John know the meaning of
service, and they have imparted this knowl-
edge of working with others to their chil-
dren. And son like father and daughter
like mother, they too have excelled.

John F. McNair, IV, or Frank as he is
called, served his high school well as presi-
dent of his freshman, sophomore, and jun-
ior classes. An Eagle Scout and an athlete,
Frank is a Morehead scholar at the Uni-
versity of North Carolina at Chapel HiU.

Elizabeth, a lovely blue-eyed blonde, is
just entering her high school years; but
she can shoot a "mean" basketball and
when it comes to a sewing machine, Eliza-
beth is "real cool."

When Wachovia Bank and Trust Com-
pany transferred the McNair family from
Laurinburg to Raleigh in November of
1970, many deep roots were broken and
bruised. But with a family such as this
one, so vital, so alive, they will begin
anew; and Raleigh will be enriched.

Likewise the Alumni Association of UNC-
G will be enriched by the enthusiasm,
knowledge, and love that is Martha Fowler
McNair. □

member of the Alumni News editorial
board )

Editorial Board Note

Margaret Johnson Watson

A resolution in appreciation of the work
of Margaret Johnson Watson '48 as editorial
board chairman was unanimously passed by
old and new board members at a meetmg
in Alumnae House September 15 when
Margaret presided for the last time before
turning the gavel over to the new chairman,
Cynthia Blythe Marshall '65.

The resolution was in recognition of
Margaret's service during a period of evalu-
ation and change for The Alumni News,
which becomes 60 years old this issue. It
has been a difficult period when the ad-
vantages of a magazine were weighed
against those of a tabloid, when the entire

communications program of the University
was examined for ways to improve yet
reduce costs.

As the magazine has changed, the edi-
torial board has changed since its organi-
zation in 1963. L'nder the leadership of
Elizabeth ("Bibbie") Yates King, its pri-
mary charge was to find an editor to
succeed Vera Largent, professor emeritus
who had accepted the editorship of the
magazine for one year. Louise Dannenbaum
Falk '33 followed "Bibbie" in the chair-
man's chair, and as the magazine gained
in circulation (from 4,000 in 1964 to
10,000 this year), alumni readers demanded
more information about campus and stu-

dents, still approving the growing number
of pages about classmates.

Meanwhile, the editorial board has be-
come increasingly an advisory board, sug-
gesting and vetoing articles, bringing the
comments of other alumni to meetings,
serving as a reflector of alumni interest and
concern. Two student members were added
last year, and this year a third student is
serving on the board.

It was Margaret's efforts in helping
these changes evolve that the board rec-
ognized in its resolution her service "over,
above and beyond the call of duty." As
Board Member Anne Cantrell White '22,
wrote in her Greensboro News column:
"Margaret . . . went out in a blaze of
glory" although she will remain on the
board ex officio.

Q. I have some old photographs and several annuals
from my years at State Normal and Industrial College.
Would someone on campus like to have them?

A. Marjorie Hood, who works part time as University
Archivist since her retirement from the library staff, is
delighted to have any pictures, scrapbooks, annuals or
other memorabilia for the College Collection. Material
should be addressed to her attention at the W.C. Jack-
son Library.

Q. Residents in the campus area complain that the Uni-
versity is "ruthless" in obtaining land for the growing
campus. If this is true, how can retaining the golf course
as open space be justified?

A. Acquisition of land is almost always a painful pro-
cedure, especially for long-time residents of a neighbor-
hood. The University has tried to be as considerate as
possible, but, as a "landlocked" campus, there is a very
limited area for expansion. Henry Ferguson, vice-chan-
cellor for Business Affairs, cites two reasons for not
using the golf course as building sites for recent con-
struction on campus. First, with the growing number of
male students, it will be necessary to construct some
physical education facilities different from those we now
have, including such things as a baseball diamond, foot-
ball field, and track (these will not be for varsity athletics
but for physical education courses and intramural sports).
It is necessary to keep such facilities close to the gym-
nasia because dressing rooms and shower facilities have
to be in adjoining buildings. The golf course is tlie only
feasible site for such facilities when they are constructed.
Second, recently constructed buildings have been for
academic purposes, so must be located in the academic
portion of the campus. Our campus is a pedestrian campus
with the expectation that students will move from class
to class on foot.

Q. I thought registration was being streamlined. How
come there was a long line at the cashier's office all day
on Monday, Sept. 13?

A. A new procedure requiring students to clear former
obligations to the University before registration was put
into effect this year. According to Dean of Students Jim
Allen, the new system would have been fine except it
was proposed too late to notify students who owed money
to the University that they would not be permitted to
enroll without making an arrangement to take care of
the obligation. As a result, everyone had to wait in
line, including freshmen, to obtain a clearance from the
cashier. Things were better Tuesday.

Shown above is a photograph from the College Col-
lection (see Rap Line question at left) which needs
identification (time, place and occasion). It shows
Dr. Mclver, probably with a high school graduating
class. It is believed that the fourth person from the
left in the second row was Maude Broadway '93.

Q. Someone told me they saw that two famous alumnae
are coming to campus this fall. Who are they?

A. General Mildred Caroon Bailey '40, who will be on
campus Tues., Nov. 9, to speak on "The Role of Women
in the American Military," and Bonnie Levy Angelo '44,
Washington correspondent of Time, who will speak on
"Woman's Place, If There Is One." on Tues., Dec. 14.
Both are part of a Political Science Lecture Series!
Q. I heard that the University planned to raise the fee
for on-campus parking this year. Isn't this in violation of
the President's wage-price freeze?

A. Because of the 582-car parking lot for students now
under construction, it was planned to raise the parking
fee from $1 for faculty and $2 for students to $16 this
year, according to Henry Fergu.son, vice-chancellor for
Business Affairs. The Internal Revenue Service informed
the University, however, that this would be a N'iolation
of the wage-price freeze. Therefore, it was decided to
issue parking permits free to all entitled to them, and
to wait until the freeze thaws to make any charge.
Those who had already paid $16 received refunds, ff
they requested them.

Q. The macrobiotic diet (basically brown rice) has be-
come something of a fad among college students. I read
that this diet is very dangerous to the health. Are UNC-G
students taking up this crazy fad?

A. There has been no evidence that students at UNC-G
have adopted this fad, at least, not among those who
seek medical attention at the Student Health Service.
Q. Where is the coffee house in the Tate Street section
located?

A. It's part of the Christian Communitv' Center which
was established last summer at 933' 2 Walker Ave., right
behind the Bi-Rite super market. A steering committee
chaired bv graduate student M. C. Teague, operates the
Center from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily. Plans now include
diree religious services weeklv at 8 p.m. on Tuesday,
Thursday and Sundav nights.

WHETHER you are counting on an ancient
Chinese abacus or using a modern American
calculator, the goal for the 1971-72 UNC-G
Alumni Annual Giving Campaign will be to top the
$1 million mark in the total amount contributed to
the program since its beginning in 1962-63.

When the Alumni Annual Giving Council held its
fall meeting in September, members of the body de-
cided that the Tenth Anniversary Campaign should not
be geared toward raising a definite dollar amount, as
had previous drives. Since nearly $873,000 had been
contributed to the program in its first nine years, the
Council voted to try to make the tenth anniversary
year the one in which Annual Giving at UNC-G reached
and surpassed the $1 million level. In order to help
achieve this goal, the Council agreed that alumni should
be urged to increase their contributions by ten per cent
this year.

The Council also re-elected Mrs. Dorothy Creech
Holt '38 of Summit, N. J., to a second term as its
chairman and welcomed seven new members, including
Jack Pinnix of Reidsville '69, the first male graduate
to serve in such a capacity. Other new members are
Mrs. Katharine Crouch Sledge '37 of Whiteville; Mrs.
Sadie Moyle Suggs '21 of Gastonia; Miss Ruth Wilson '25
of Raleigh; Miss Mereb E. Mossman, UNC-G professor
who is the new faculty representati\'e to the council;
and new student members Miss Patricia Potter (1972)
of Charlotte and Larry Saffiotti (1974) of Upper Saddle
River, N. J.

Already serving on the 1.5-member council, in addition
to Mrs. Holt, are Mrs. Katherine Keister Tracy '36 of
Hickory; Mrs. Karen Jensen Deal '55 of Charlotte; Mrs.
Annah Buff Prago '57 of Greensboro; Mrs. Hester Bizzell
Kidd '51 of Washington, N. C; faculty members Dr.
Donald W. Russell and Dr. David R. Batcheller; and
student member Penny Muse (1973) of Laurinburg.
A special allocation of $.500 to the University's China
Year Program was approved by the Council as part of
the distribution of the record $150,571 contributed to
Annual Giving during the 1970-71 campaign. The re-
maining funds were allocated as follows:

1. Designated Gifts $64,874.63

2. Campaign Costs 9,000.

3. Operation of Alumni Office 49,902.

4. Alumni Scholarships 21,000. '

5. Kathleen Hawkins Student
Aid Fund 1,899.67

6. Teaching Excellence Awards 1,000. '

7. Alumni Professorship 1,000. "

8. Special Student
Employment Fund 1,000. "

9. Experimental College
Equipment Fund 500.

10. Faculty-Student Travel 1,500. "

11. Chancellor's Discretionary Fund 1,495.30
