  • A Neighborly Call From The Hills To Kindred Spirits Everywhere CULLOWHEE, NORTH CAROLINA, APRIL 1st, 1931 VIEW OF CAMPUS LOOKING NORTHEAST Initiation of Honor Students to be Held Initiation of new members and promotion ceremonies for old members of Alpha Phi Sigma was scheduled for Thursday evening, April 2. However on account of the rush of the new quarter and the impending holidays it has been postponed for one week, until April 9. The names of those who are to be • initiated have not been announced yet, although it is predicted that a good many students will have come up to the standard. Requirement for membership in the lowest order requires the earning of at least twenty honor points each quarter for two quarters. Honor points are obtained on the following basis: A grade of A on a one-hour course, three honor points. A grade of B on a one-hour course, two honor points. . A grade of C on a one-hour course, one honor point. Anyone making A on a three hour course has made nine honor points; on a two-hour course six honor points, and so on according to grades and number of hours carried. President Addresses Chapel Assembly "Should a student who has done his best in college ever fail?" This question was asked the student body of Western Carolina Teachers College by the college president, H. T. Hunter, as he began a discussion which was to continue through two chapel programs. These programs were on March 16 and 18. He also asked this question, "Should a student who has done his best be given an A?." Mr. Hunter gave the two philosophies of grading which underlie grading students. "The first philosophy," he says, "is that educational text books, materials, lesson plans, curricula, etc., are sacred. This philosophy makes no allowance for individual differences in students. The second philosophy holds that the child is sacred; books materials, and curricula should be fitted to the child. This one provides for individual differences and asks one question only: Has the child profited to his maximum capacity from the experiences to which the school has subjected him?" The second chapel program was a (Continued on page 3) President Hunter's Birthday Observed At the meeting of the Faculty Club, March 23, the members honored President Hunter's birthday. The party was held in the Reuben Robertson Hall. The parlors of the dormitory were decorated with spring flowers. A color scheme of yellow and white was carried out. In the candle-lit sun parlor, a beautiful three tier cake was placed. The first tier was used to stowe away the individual gifts given Mr. Hunter. A delightful course of cream and cake was served. This was followed (Continued on Page 3) Teachers to Address Educational Meet Miss Eleanor Gladstone Librarian; Miss Thelma Howell, Head of the Science Department; and Miss Cordelia Camp, Director of the Training School, were asked to speak at the state Teachers Meeting to be held in Raleigh April 9, 10, 11. Miss Camp is planning to speak on "The Grammar Grade Curriculum." Miss Viele, Miss Rhodes, and Miss Simpson are tentatively planning to attend the meeting. Honor Roll For Winter Quarter Announced An increase of 3.3 per cent was made in the number of students at Western Carolina Teachers College making the honor roll for the winter quarter over that of the fall quarter. There were thirty-nine who made the honor roll the first quarter and forty- nine the winter. Eleven of the forty- nine made the Alpha group; that is, they made A on fifty percent of all hours taken and not a grade below C. Those making the Alpha roll were: Cleo Caldwell, Waynesville; Lillian Dillard, Six Mile, S. C; Horace Garrison, Hayesville; Rowe Henry, Gastonia; Jessie Higdon, Higdonville; Ruth Hunter, Alexandria; B. B. Long, Cullowhee; Sue McCulley, Sylva; Martha Mayfield, Murphy; J. R. Porter, Andrews, and Minor P. Wilson, Hendersonville. The class Beta includes: Enolah Arrington, Cashiers; Margaret Ashton, Waynesville; Louise Baggette, Red Springs; Bertha Baggett, Cooper; Henrietta Bain, Waynesville; Gladys Blythe, Hendersonville; Eva Bourne, Spartanburg, S.

Bryson, (Continued on page 3) College Given Fourth Year Standing by State Western Carolina Teachers College is now a full-grown four-year standard college, according to information received from the state department of education by President H. T. Hunter. Dr. James E. Hillman, state director of certification, and Dr. J. Henry Highsmith, state supervisor of high schools, were at the college recently and made an examination which resulted in the local college receiving a new birthday—the birth of standardization on the four year level and also of authorization to train high school teachers in the fields of English, Science and History. The college has been on the standard junior college basis for several years, having been classified as a Junior Teachers College, class A, by the American Association of Teachers Colleges since 1928. Teachers have hitherto been trained in the primary and grammar grade fields only. This is the first attempt in the training of high schol teachers at Cullowhee. The first high school practice teaching was done in the college training (Continued on Page 3) Officers Elected for Spring Term Activities Reorganization of clubs and the election of new officers has been under way at Western Carolina Teachers College during the past week. A Macon County Club was organized with George Carpenter, president; Elizabeth Deal, vice-president and Ina Henry, secretary and treasurer. There are about twenty-five members in the club. Election of new officers for the St. Cecelia Music Club was made. Mildred Stephenson was elected president and Mary Dare Haithcock was elected secretary and treasurer. The Dramatic Club re-instated it's (Continued on Page 3) New Tennis Court Nearing Completion The new tennis court located south of Robertson Hall is rapidly nearing the time for the finishing touches. The students are greatly indebted to the school officials who made possible this much needed playground. When finished it will give the students the choice of four of the best courts that are to be found in the state. The erection of the new court was not because of the bad playing condition of the other courts but because of increase in students and a desire for more and better equipment.
