Centenary is a place to meet new faces which will become life long friends. The shortage of parking spaces is evident as students arrive on campus for the new year. Centenary is a community of learners. That it tries to be truly a community, with a spirit, and inclusiveness, even a kind of surrogate family atmosphere, I hope you will soon know, personally and gladly. And that, as we are all alive, we are all learners, is obvious: students, teachers, staff are each unique, but each is, in dia- logue and in process, sharing insight and experience. Part of education is formal. Formal education requires curricula, procedures, even, some regulations! Bear with us, and with them, when they seem not to fit perfectly. Talk with us about it. But much education is informal. It oc- curs in the spaces -member ... in a corner of the library . . . And self confi- dence in the use of knowledge, comes in both ways. So, I welcome you warmly to a com- munity of learners: we are glad you are a part of us. Dr. Donald A. Webb President Freshman Rynelle Harrington arrives on campus. The campus, with its shade trees and running brooks, is an assett to the Shreveport community. Student Life • 23

23? mi r p Mattie awaits for caf violators to enter. ' I ' ve got to see your I.D. No exceptions. ' Vance Hughes seems to be enjoying his caf burger. Enjoy Your Meal!?! If you ' ve entered the Caf yet, you may have noticed the prominent sign proclaiming a $25 fine for removal of cafe- teria ware and food items. This is just the beginning of a reestablishment of caf policies. Besides the rule against bor- rowing any glasses, silverware, and such, there will also be a rule against any takeout meals. This includes cokes, coffee, water, and even ice cream cones. No outside glasses or cups will be allowed in the caf, either. If you try to foolishly get away with any of these rules, be forewarned: You may meet up with Mattie, the fierce (but likable) caf moniter, who has been hired to ensure the policies will be carried out. Other policies which will be in effect are simply old policies that have been reinstated. For instance, the doors will be locked between meals and no one will be allowed in before or after hours. Also, the kitchen will be off limits. For faculty and staff brown baggers , drinks and a prepared salad can be purchased for lunch. The drinks ca will be 254 per glass and prepared salads can be purchased for $1. Usual- ly on Tuesday evenings, a special meal will be served. These specialties may be a Mexican Fiesta . . an International Meal , or a Make your own Banana Split , to name a few. Plans for picnics have been made during the fall and the spring. For those times when you don ' t feel your best and are unable to make it to the meal, sick trays may be obtained by contacting your RD or RA for a sick tray request, filling it out, and getting a friend to bring the request to the caf. The reason we have all these wonderful new rules to follow is very basic to all of us: We need better food. In order to obtain the money to get better food, the caf is making these changes in hopes of saving money. According to Dottie Deaton, the caf manager, they are trying to up- grade the quality of the food by getting rid of the extra expenses. An expense survey will be taken later in the year to determine if there is a measurable difference in the num- ber of cokes, etc. that have been drunk. So, even if this is an imposition, try to grin and bear it. You may be grinning for another reason soon: You may have actually enjoyed your meal! by: Lea Burelbach ■ •■■■Hi SJ-L.-! ■■■■ ■ ■■■■■l rJ i — r --■■■■■ ■■■■■Hi. »j .: «;;; ■■■■iki «-» - r TIJ8222 ■ ■■■■(.. . -- --- jrri U law ' ■■■ — Ml — «■!
