Chapter one AdniiiiistratioH 3 0 BARELY made it to my seat before the processional began. Everybody turned to loot; at the row of black robes making its way to the stage. Opening convocation. I ne er thought about it before, but this is one of the few times I see the faculty and administration in one big group. Almost every day I can see them in little gatherings Dr. Lewis, Dr. Africa, Mr. .Shewmake, and Dr. Spencer in the drug- store — or Mr. Campbell, Mi.ss Covington, and Miss .Simpson sitting around the lily pond. I certainly do like Mrs. Heidbredcr ' s blue regalia. Most attractive! And Mr. Sandresky . . . did I bid for the drive-in date he offered at the Y auction! The Gramleys attract a lot of bidders, too, with their bridge party. And dinners at the Britts ' arc popular. But the aesthetes go for Mr. Curlee ' s woodcraft. Mr. Pete certainly is more dignified today than at his let ' s sing sessions, or at the faculty-student games. I like the Softball games best, I guess. Miss Byrd and Mrs. Scott are fabulous cheerleaders, and Miss Collett and Miss Bryson perform like professionals. Kow can the students help but forsake their team and cheer for the faculty! They were all on the stage and we sat down after the invocation. It was Dr. Hixson ' s time to speak. That reminds me. I must give Dr. Hixson that announcement before the first monthly faculty meeting. I certainly don ' t want any of them to miss the Follies. After all, they entertain us every fourth year. Dr. Wel ch is probably already con- cocting a new array of acts for 1958. I really don ' t see how she has time for such things. The list of committees they utilize is unbelievable —calendar, curriculum, ad- missions, student government — the aca- demic council and the one in charge of scholarships and student aid. And we think we have a lot of things to do . . . 11
