What Cullowhee Has and What She Lacks Cullowhee Campus Shows Improvement To our former students and friends ^turning to Cullowhee numerous campus improvements will at once be "oticed. At the entrance of the grounds will be seen an attractive siSn. "Cullowhee State Normal School," pointing to a concrete driveway which leads from the highway tn the Joyner Building. The brick walks leading from the dormitories to (Continued on page 2) Cullowhee State Normal boasts of many advantages not possessed by other schools. Among them is the unsurpassed scenery which abounds in Western North Carolina. Jackson county can hardly be equalled in the variety and charm of its natural scenery: peaks over 5,000 feet high, numerous water falls, fertile valleys, acres of rhododendron and laurel, dogwood, galax, and fern—beauty that is grand, beauty that is delicate and exquisite. Cullowhee is not only a place of charming beauty; it is also a place of exceptional healthfulnsss. The school has had but one case of serious sickness for years, and that was a case brought to the school by a student who was sick when she came. The authorities of the Normal are endeavoring to make Cullowhee the outstanding example of institutional beauty and healthfulness in North Carolina. But the healthfulness and beauty characteristic of Cullowhee tells but a part of the story. Those who have known the school feel that the faculty and student body are a select group to a degree not reached by many teacher-training institutions. I he mistake has not been here of making mere numbers the objective—to do so always means the lowering of educa- tional standards. It is believed that with the reputation established for well-equipped faculty members and for a high order of service, numbers at Cullowhee will take care of themselves. Jesus said to the rich young man: "But one thing thou lackest"—so it may be said of Cullowhee. Beauty, healthfulness, standards, these she has; but she lacks one thing possessed by every other state institution in North Carolina: a paved highway. It is an actual fact that Cullowhee State Normal is the only state institution in North Carolina, not located in a city, which does not have a paved highway right by its doors. From Cullowhee to Highway No. 10 on the north is eight miles, and it is thirty miles to the nearest hard-surfaced road to the south. Surely North Carolina can not longer permit one of its leading educational institutions to lack the facilities afforded by a paved highway. Since the state has built roads to its other institutions, it would be unthinkabls for Cullowhee to be left in the mud. Who will see that the institution gets the much-needed paved highway before other sections of the state gobble up all available funds for the recently authorized thirty million bond issue for state highways? PRES. HUNTER ATTENDS DALLAS N.E.A. MEETING President Hunter attended the annual meeting of the Department of Superintendents of the National Education Association held in Dallas, Texas, from February 26th to March 3rd. This was the first meeting of the Association held in the South for twenty years, because the organization had grown so large that no city has been able to accommodate the visit ors. There were about 12,000 members in attendance, made up largely of school officials, superintendents, presidents, deans, supervisors and professors of Education from all over the United States. Besides the regular business affairs attended to, the Association enjoyed other programs. Two musical features of the meeting, according to Professor Hunter, proved to be exceptionally interesting. One of these was a chorus of 600 colored girls and boys from the high school of Dallas. This group of young people was led by Portia Washington Pittman, the daughter of Booker T. Washington. The other was the National High School Stringed Orchestra, composed of several hundred boys and girls from thirty or more states, led by Joseph A. Maddey of Ann Arbor, Michigan. President Hunter made special visits to a number of colleges on this trip. On his way to Dallas, he spent one day at Peabody College in Nash- vill, Tennessee. While in Texas he visited the North Texas Teachers' College and the College of Industrial Arts at Denton. He also stopped at the West Tennessee Teachers' College at Memphis enroute home.
