Poet 's Corner
A Pair of Angel Wings
Judy Criss
A stormy day when wind and seas can smother all
plights of one's fruitless life,
When shadowing clouds touch the earth
enshrouding one's soul,
When one's ears become deaf to all but the
crying of t he shattering t ide,
Beneath my foot from upon wasted beach
I wandered,
I lifted gently from watery clutches,
a slight shell ... fragile, white,
angel wings by name.
Still perfect and unbroken, lone survivor from many,
it had endured.
A stormy day when wind and seas have broken
the dreams of desperate souls,
When shadowing clouds were unlifted
rby the weak,
On a bleak beach of nowhere a fragile, perfect
shell lies
in the footprints of mankind.
If' Not, Why Not?
THE STUDEN1· GOVERNMENT Association, when ope rating with the best interests of t he student body in mind,
is a useful and highly des irable organization.
AN EFFICIENT Student Council plans various activities, offers an opportunity for students to voice complaints,
:pla ns Freshman Week and Homecoming events, and publi.:izes coming events of importance to the student body.
A STUDENT COUNCIL which does these things is a
necessary pa rt of campus life. The Student Council exists
for students, a nd if the organization is weak, the students
are deprived of necessary leadership and th,,ir voice in GSC
policy.
STUDENTS MUST be informed and must demand maxi mum effort on the part of the officers and members o.f the
Council. If t he best possible leadership is not provided, then
'both students and Council members need to re-examine GSC
.student government.

Letters to the Editor
DEAR EDITOR :
As a student at Glenville State
'College, I have watched the parking situation on our campus go
from bad to extremely bad. On
Tuesday night, March 3. the final
point of confusion wa s re ached.
The Wahama High School Band
members, who presented a concert at the college that night,
and wer e scheduled to r eturn
home {a one-hundred mile drive),
after the concert , found that several of the cars in which t he
students were riding, were blocked in their parking spaces by
persons unknown who parked
their automobiles on the sidewalk
at the entrance of the parking
lot, locked the doors of their
cars, and left.
Most, if not a ll of these car s,
did not bear G.S.C. student r egis·
tration stickers. Combined with
tQe incle ment weathe r , the delay
of forty-five minutes to an hour,
would have made the cars a nd
their passenger s extre mely late
in a rriving at the destination.
I do not think tha t this situation publicizes the college in a
favorable sense. If students receive tickets from the college for
illegal parking, why c annot other
people who park on campus be
·s ubject a t least to the rule of
common courtesy when they are
here.
Perhaps a solution to t his probl em would be for the college to
hire specia l employees to direct
iraffic on congested dates. I, as
a fu ll tim e student at G.S.C.,
would like to see som ething done
about this t reatment of guests to
.the college.
Sincerely.
Michael Gene Wilson
DEAR EDITOR :
Tuesday night, March 3, the
Wahama High School Band presented a concert in the College
a uditorium . After the concert,
several of the students and their
chaperones found that their cars
were blocked into their parking
spaces by other cars which were
parked in such a manner as to
block completely the entrance of
the lot. Three of the cars were
de layed as much as forty-f.ive
minute s. This was a considerable
delay considering that these peo·
pie had a drive of over ninety
miles in the fog before they
reached home.
Several of these students wer e
of junior high school age and a ll
of them bad to a ttend classes the
next day. Naturally I heard seve ral unfavorable comments a bout
the College and its pa rking policy
during games and activities. I
pointed out that most , if not all,
of the offending cars did not
bear student sticke rs a nd were
proba bly not associated with t he
college, but the fact still re mains
that guests of the College had
been treated in a ver y inconsiderate ma nner.
I have noticed that parking
does seem to be a problem during
games a nd othe r such activities. Is a nything being done or
c a n anything be done to prevent
outsiders from abusing the right
of College students and guests in
the College lots? l !eel that incide nts such as this not only
place the College, but also the
stude nts in an unfavorable light
in the eyes of many people. What
c an be done to help eliminate
these unpleasant incidents?
Your s truly,
Kenneth H. Frederick
