It seems that "to celebrate or not to celebrate" is the only question we ask about the Bicentennial. Some of us seem to be afraid that our failure to participate will be the basis for the perishing of our history. I'd like to know how they were able to deduce that the history of a race will die if the people of that race refuse to partake in some celebration, no matter how large or small the celebration may be. They should realize that you don't just wipe out the history of a race by waving a wand. Others of us are going around saying we shouldn't celebrate because we aren't free. This is the most ridiculous thing I have heard yet. First, I would like to know how these people define "free". Then, I'd like to know what groups of people they think are free. There probably wouldn't be a great number of people ever celebrating anything, if they had to wait until they were free before celebrating. Even while in bondage, our people were known to take part in many celebrations. Do these critics condemn our ancestors for such actions? Surely, we have a great deal more freedom than our enslaved ancestors. There are several other arguments, both pro and con, about the participation of Black Americans in the American Bicentennial. There are so many of us going around today eating, sleeping, and drinking nothing but "Blackness". They don't want to hear about anything else. I'd like to summarize my views on the American Bicentennial by paraphasing a few statements made by Dr. John Henry Clark in Harrison Auditorium, Tuesday. Now is the time for us to locate ourselves on the map of human geography. We must find out not only where we still must go; but, also, where we still must be. The world is Our Household Is Being Threatened ruled by neither beauty nor Blackness, but by power. Therefore, I see it as being very important that the By Benjamin T. Forbes American Bicentennial find Black America, not as a There couldn't possibly a better time than now, at homecoming for all Aggies, young spectator, but as a participator. and not so young, to unite to fight those who seek to belittle and destroy us.

Last April, Senator Ralph Scott of Alamance County made a statement which Staff members are free to write dissenting opinions. expressed the need to close A&T.

In November of last year, a committee was set up by the UNC Board of Governors to study the campuses of North Carolina State University in Raleigh and A&T to determine which school would be best suited to institute a new program; that being a school of veterinary medicine.
