G Dorothy Evans Editor Miriam Tyson Business Manager ODAY. as in other war times. Greensboro College remains a landmark, a home, and an enduring monument to the education of women in North Carolina. Three times destroyed by fire and three times rebuilt, the college could not be recognized today as the youthful college of a hundred years ago. But while her face has been changed, her heart is the same — a strong heart which has with- stood lire and poverty and war. She has seen thousands of students come and go. khaki -clad soldiers walking under the canopy of her trees, and girls waiting for wars to end. And Greensboro College will go on — a sturdy foundation and the source of fine memories for girls who will become a part of the future tnfo which no one can see clearly. May stand bravely and proudly as she d her nation at war and a century beh t The days are made on a loom, whe woof are past and future time. — EMI GREENSBORO COLLEGE FROM THE OLD TO THE NEW IN WAR TIMES c A M P U S V I E W s Back cf Main MAIN -4; [3$IS28£[ jKFUi, v , i ' ' : Pra r tJGpSjJ lxlJl MV- - it « : W IRBi BRSt 5 $ p£ . DEDICATION Gratefully we recognize your interest in our college and your gifts to us — the greatest of which has been your years of service to Greensboro Col- lege as a board member and as president of the board of trustees. Our school has no greater friend than you, a fact which you have demonstrated by sending your daughters here as students and by giving freely of your time, money, and energy to Greensboro College. Through you, we also express our thanks to the other members of the board for their thought- ful guidance and material aid in making the col- lege more progressive and more beautiful.

New members are added as they qualify, and the rules are the same as those of the Senior society consistent high scholarship. Officers are: Dorothea Janssen. president; and Carolyn Moser. secretary-treasurer. GREENSBORO COLLEGE HONOR SOCIETY These girls are the select few who have stayed on the job and have attained a ninety per cent average on their academic work. Coveted voluntary cuts are a tradi- tion with the Honor Society, which has been a leading campus organization for years. Characterized by dignity in their monthly meetings, initiations, and formal dinners, the juniors and seniors who are members of the Senior Honor Society win the admiration and respect of the student body, proving that a judicious mixture of work and play can be very profitable.

AB1 RNA1 in MARSHA! s Page I i The vigorous Irving campaign this year was successful in bringing into their society a larger number of freshman recruits than the rival Emersons. The victory came with the whirl- wind Decision Day, after a week of rushing. The Irvings entertained the freshmen with Gay Nineties parties, frequent feasts, and all-out efforts to make the new girls welcome. Later Jean White was elected Irving bride and was married to President Louise Taylor with all the traditional society festivities. The Irving Marshals, selected from the soph- omore class for their attractive appearance and personality, are always in the thick of Rush Week activity. Also, they take part in other school activities throughout the year. IRVING SONG I ' m an Irving born. I ' m an Irving bred And when I die I ' m an Irving dead.

President Margaret Jon Hardin led her fellow Emersons and the new students through a whirlwind week of rotunda feasts, nostalgic moon river programs in a candle-lit society hall, and bookstore snacks. In the background there was the frantic mid- night decorating, screwy posters everywhere — and the freshmen trying hard to make their choices. Later, after all the first excitement was over. Martha Wright was chosen as Emerson queen. In addition to the Emerson officers, sopho- more marshals are chosen each year. Dressed in their traditional white, these girls are an unforgettable part of Emerson Rush Week ceremonies. Old Emersons, we are proud That we belong to you.

C. Combining the endless picture-making, copy deadlines. Dot ' s late hours at a typewriter, with frequent business-pleasure trips to Char- lotte, and Tyson ' s prodding of the business staff to more strenuous ad-gathering, the record of wartime G.

C. girl. Every other Friday night each girl retires behind her paper and emerges some time later, informed, amused, and ready to nudge a neighbor in friendly dis- cussion. Yes. the Collegian holds an established place on the campus; and the big Advocate presses don ' t roll without a lot of planning, writ- ing, dummy making, and numerous trips to the publisher — to say nothing of the hair-raising frenzy with which editor Reynolds and business manager Bowman rush to beat a deadline. All of this together makes a newspaper that ' s really tops in campus news coverage.

AVETT HANDBOOK Any G. C. girl, new or old. would probably be woefully con- fused without her small green Handbook with its rules, regulations, and suggestions about college behavior. In the Handbook the campus organizations are listed along with the names of their officers and descriptions of their work. Elva Grace Avett. editor, and Sara Bruton, business manager, have winked hard to state carefully each rule for behavior so that a student has only to thumb through the Handbook to know what is expected of her at G.

Vice-President Sybil Sisk helps sometimes: Margaret Boren. Town Girls ' secretary, takes notes on all the chatter: Doris Dale rushes in and out, busy with Collegian copy. There ' s always talk of silver and gold wings, the engagement rings that are forever appearing, and U.S.O. activities. A few people study, keeping the day students ' scholastic average above par. The club ' s many social activities during the year include banquets, teas, and the annual Christmas party. Assisting Margaret. Sybil, and Margaret Wiley in leading the club are: Sallie By rum. treasurer, and Frances Winslow, council representative. Page Ninety-tht GREENSBORO COLLEGE GLEE CLUB inrmk a ' m - - A ■mi The sight of the Glee Club on the stage for Thursday chapel, sounds of four o ' clock practice in the basement of Odell, concerts and short trips, are tangible evidences that the group is one of the most active campus organ- izations. Wartime transportation dif- ficulties have cut short the long trips of the Glee Club, but the girls find it ' s almost as much fun to sing in Greensboro and nearby towns. Walter Vassar directs the Glee Club, and its traditional program of events includes the Christmas concert with the Meistersingers. and the Mother ' s Day concert at West Market Street Methodist Church, both eagerly anticipated by music lovers of the city. The Glee Club ' s customary sextet has grown up this year, and has directed most of its activities toward entertaining the soldiers at B. T. C. No. 10. The C3mp has welcomed the frequent visits of the group and its director. Mr. Vassar. a nd has thor- oughly enjoyed the comic-opera and semi-classical songs which the girls sing. Left lo right Mauris.

C. members are always concerned with every phase of the war. They wouldn ' t miss reading the front page news each day, and they meet once a month, usually with a speaker, to discuss and plan ways to help speed victory. Under the leadership of President Alice Amon, the I. R. C. presents chapel programs, promotes the sale of bonds and stamps on the campus, and sends representatives to inter-racial meetings and forums on current topics. A favorite motto of the club is.

Part of the fun of learning French is the singing of the old French favorites, L - Amour. Toujours L ' Amour, and Au Clair de la Lune. The meetings usually include games, fortune-telling, plays, and crossword puzzles. More seriously, the club helps the Fighting French by collecting old clothes for French relief and by the sale of novelties on the campus.

At every opportunity the club is represented at state education meet- ings. In order to receive a teacher ' s certifi- cate, these students do six weeks of observation and six weeks of prac- tice teaching in the Greensboro schools. After that they really feel that they are full-fledged future teachers. The club is a member of the State and National Federation of Future Teachers ' Clubs.

They are the girls with the arm bands who guide you in the darkness to Main and who bump into you as they dash down a pitch-black hall to fill a bath- tub or turn out a forgotten light. Each girl must be faithful to her post in checking lights, preventing care- less accidents, and making blackout practices smooth and successful. The quiel jusl before the all-clear signal and the sight oi the Air Raid Wardens performing their duties serve to bring war even closer to the G.

In addition and off the record, these freshman counselors pass on to their counselees any choice bits of information which might prove valuable in adjustment to college life.
