RGANIZATIUNS Speed 27,000 years through time to the Copper Age. Stop beside the river Nile, snaking its way through the shifting sands of Egypt. Pass by the Sphinx and pyramid tombs to the nearest temple. Step inside. Slender pillars topped with stone lotus blossoms support the dark ceiling, while on the shadowed walls are cut strange symbols and pictures. Near the front of the temple stands a high priest overseeing the work of a slave who chisels more symbols into the hard wall. An outgrowth of the crude bison, these hieroglyphics are one of man's first attempts at composing an alphabet. With the beginning of writing, came the organizing of men into groups. The earliest known forms of organizations were religious cults composed of men drawn together by common religious beliefs, such as those of the Egyptian Temples. Organizations today entail much more than religion. They extend from the vast governmental systems of nations to the small but significant service and honorary groups found here at Boone. Just as the temples played an important part in the lives of the ancient Egyptians, so organizations are even more vital in the lives of students today. Socially and academically, students' growing needs are partially satisfied through organizations.
