Those who invade the privacy of these quarters will be subject to immediate arrest for trespassing. Intoxicated people will not be admitted.

It is not expected that the privacy of this residence will be invaded by those who are just looking for somewhere to go to while away the time. The Dixiana is a home, in every proper sense of the term. When visited in this spirit it will continue to provide security, comfort, and hospitality for all the residents and their friends. ir Policy For Student Campaigns Told id id )e It shall be the duty of the agers, who will submit their schedule to the dean of stucampaign manager of each party to dents for his approval. become conversant with the followC.

President's Message Two things I have observed which are, I believe, universal truths. The first is that life is a struggle. In contemporary slang life is no ball. In addition to the problems in herent in battling with the forces of nature and in dealing with other people, all of us have the constant problem of dealing with ourselves. Egotism is a shame, a front, a facade which we, in our pride, hold up for the .world to look at. Some members of the human family find themselves in situations where for a time they are coddled, protected and shielded from reality to such an extent that they do not know what life is like. Usually, but not always, they have had an introduction by the time they are of college age and recognize that hard work, diligence, integrity, persistence, promptness, and dependability are virtues that it pays to develop for they will be rewarded for them. For those who do not know, one of lifes big painful lessons still lies ahead. Abundance kills more than plenty. Unquestionably, although some of lifes problems are the result of thoughtless and unkind acts by our neighbors, they are also our greatest source of strength in time of need. Making and keeping friends is one of lifes greatest missions and is an essential ingredient in every success story. We, at Dixie College, are pleased with the reputation our school has developed of being a friendly one. The second universal truth may appear to be a paradox there is more getting in giving, than in taking. This truth lies at the core of Christianity and our democratic way of life. The present world conclusively demonstrates that if things are not well with our neighbors, things are not well with situ-atio- us. n I am at the center of my own world, and each of you at the center of yours. This is a human trait that we can always depend on. And it is as it should be. Nevertheless, it is equally true that the person that becomes so wrapped up in himself that he forgets his neighbor, is not only inconsiderate and unkind, but he is heading for serious personal troubles. Every student who has registered at Dixie College this year is, or he ought to be, anxious to get as much out of it as he can get. If he is to succeed in this he will face up to the problems and not avoid them, he will work hardest when the ing is the toughest, and will rc rul nize that these experiences are in e resentative of life itself. The student who will take the most, will also leave the most behind. This has always been true. a Our active givers are the happiest, the most productive, and the most successful. The D in our Dixie stands first of all for the Desire to Do. Program and Assembly Committee Rules Forward: Assemblies and programs are part of the rich tradition of Dixie College. The rules and responsibilities defined below are designed to promote these goals. 1. The responsibilities of this committee are as follows: a. To assure the production of assemblies by the students of Dixie College that will be a credit to all those involved. b. To exercise controls as are necessary to assure the performers of the common courtesies expected of college audiences. accept and to make welcome visitors who wish to perform for Dixie College when- c. To ever this does not unduly interfere with scheduled activities and classes. 2. The first responsibility for production of creditable assemblies will rest with the student officers, with faculty members offering advice as needed, and assuming regulatory powers only when it is obviously necessary. 3. The responsibility for granting the performers the common courtesies expected of a college audience is first and foremost the responsibility of the associated students of Dixie College. Should individual members of this group need to be reminded of this responsibility it shall be the duty of their class president or of their elected student officers. Should these methods not be successful it shall be the responsibility of the entire committee to take appropriate action. 4. Faculty members of this committee either individually or as a group have full administrative authority whenever needed. Their presence on the committee also gives the committee such authority whenever faculty members are present in the majority. |
