Elon College Elon College, N.C. 27244 In this modern, fast paced world in which we live it often seems that we are being engulfed by our surroundings. All of the institu- tions we come in contact with seem large and impersonal and many people yearn for something small and down-to-earth. A small college is the answer for many. Elon College falls into the small college category with twenty-two hundred students and a campus which covers three square blocks of Elon College, North Carolina. So why do people come here and what are they seeking? Elon, like other small institutions of higher learning, possesses the standard advantages and disadvantages. The students are not absorbed into the system as in larger institutions where they become mere statistics. Classes are small enough for students and professors to become personally acquainted here. The tempo of life is slow and easy at Elon in comparison with larger schools. Almost everyone knows everyone else or something about them. Students gather at the standard locations. Varsity Grill, Union lobby, and Alamance, be- tween classes each day just to shoot the breeze. A personal touch exists within the student body and between them and the faculty. Elon's small, rural location limits the entertainment facilities available to students. Therefore they revert back to the campus which strengthens the closeknit student atmosphere. However many students leave campus and go elsewhere seeking social activity. This is a drawback to attending any Small college. Another disadvantage to a small campus is the lack of privacy which each student is afford- ed ... there are no secrets at Elon. Students here are often faced with rules and situations which are blown out of proportion yet would not be given a second thought at larger universities. Controls are much tighter at Elon due to its small size. Elon has its pros and cons. But whatever the reason behind each student’s choice of attending Elon, the reason he or she stays is the people they've acquired as friends and have come to love. The people are Elon. 1977 — Phi Psi Cli
