H IVIPDEN-SYDNEY CALL EYES ON US For four days in October CBS News turned its Eye on Hampden- Sydney, taping for a later broad- cast a story about one of the na- tion's few-remaining all male col- leges. Reporter Lem Tucker, Pro- ducer Dave Caravello, and the tape crew arrived on campus Thursday morning, October 13, and it did not take a network report to inform the campus com- munity of their presence.

The weekend of October 13- October 15 was perhaps the big- gest weekend in the history of the College, and the tact that CBS was here to tape the events of the weekend only added to this distinction.

W8 L Weekend - if this weekend's football game has anything to do with it, W 8 L would be dead rather than co-ed -, the College held groundbreaking ceremonies for its new residence halls. Earlier in the day Friday, former Secretary of State Dean Rusk gave a stirring address, following his being awarded an honorary Doctor of Laws. Throughout it all, there was CBS, camera at the ready. The CBS Hampden-Sydney visit proved to be an experience for all those concerned, an experience that most will never forget. When the segment is aired, the nation and the world will get a two-minute glance at Hampden-Sydney Col- lege, a glance which artfully cap- tures all that the College is about. What the piece will not capture, however, are those four short days that CBS turned its Eye toward usg it cannot capture the excitement that this event stirred on campus. This is Lem Tucker reporting I have heard many times since the last I-lampden-Sydney scene was shot, and each time I hear it I recall with a sense of pride Tucker's last words to me: I have never felt so welcomed as I have been here at Hampden- Sydney, thank you. And that's the way it was, and you were there. - Thomas A. Robinson '83 1 19 Q, X-9. 41-vt I-xx ff' C f 1 Q . 4 I., , .xii e ei 'ig .
