TirRSOAY MAY 2 1978 Early Freshman Jitters Push Hawkins To Top

When Herman Hawkins entered A&T State Universi­ ty four years ago, he says he was "afraid of failing." A quick glance at his col­ lege grades, however, makes one wonder about his ap­ prehension, for Hawkins swept through A&T with on­ ly one grade lower than an A and that was a B in his first semester in college.

Not Just Another Ad

The last edition of The Register included an Insider entitled, Music Comes Alive: The Seventies Sounds. Popular artists in jazz', country disco, tecnorock, and inner tunes were interviewed about "What's hap­ pening" in the Seventies' in their particular area of music. sThey say that Blacks are born with natural rhythm a incoordination, but we are not the only ones who feel the need to express ourselves in music. Music is a way of life for most of us because we all seem to come alive once we begin to feel the vibes of a popular tune. We are hooked on music so much that we take it everywhere we go in our cars, on buses, in the dorms, at the movies, at church, on planes and outside in the wide open spaces. Some of us might not be able to get into Elton John, Kiss, or Dolly Parton but we shouldn't down grade their music just because it doesn't make us "groove". Take for example the novel War and Peace by Tolstoy. Many of us wouldn't read it because we say "hey man, that's not my style, I can't relate to that subject at all". But that's no reason to say that it is not a great book, is it? Since Friday, this writer has seen several copies of the Insider in trash cans, and on the floor and this writer has also heard students say "I'm not going to read this thing, it's just an advertisement gimmick from Ford Motor Company". Yes, it is part ofanadvertising campaign, and a darn good one at that. The Insider that we distribute has. helpful, educational as well as informative material in today's world.
