Honor students inducted
Cindy Hines Kurfman

Phi Theta Kappa inducted 52
new members into the community
college honor society last Thursday.
Scholarship, leadership, fellow
ship and service are the characteris
tics inductees have shown at the col
lege and in the community. In order
to meet the scholarship requirement,
the members had to complete 12 cred
its hours and to maintain a 3.50 GPA.
College President John Keyser
encouraged the new members to “use
[their] talents and energies to make a
better country and a better world.”
Keyser was the keynote speaker
at the induction. He spoke on the Phi
Theta Kappa theme for the year, “The
Arts: The Landscape of Our Times.”
“[Art] is one of those windows
through which we analyze, evaluate
civilization,” he said. “I think the arts
are an expression of higher ground,
higher consciousness.”
He believes Phi Theta Kappa’s
emphasis on the arts is important be
cause “the arts just don’t happen....
It’s too easy to lose the arts.” Keyser
sees a need to subsidize the arts.
As part of this arts theme, Chap
ter Secretary Laney Fouse sang a love
song, dedicated to her daughter Kelly,
to the crowd.
After the song, Fouse, Chapter
President Meriwether Mersereau,
Vice President Tanya Leikam and
Advisor Dave Arter explained the
symbols and duties of Phi Theta
Kappa.

The end of the fall term is com
ing very soon. For me, this means
the end of my very first term as a
college student If you had asked
me one and a half months ago, I
would have sworn that it would
have been my last
The first weeks of my college
experience were less than pleasing.
I felt isolated and alone, with abso
lutely no friends. Having graduated
from a fairly small high school, I
was used to knowing everything
about everybody. I was also used to
being around my closest friends at
all times. I never thought that col
lege would be a place where I would
alone, separate, strange or even
anti-social;
Welcome to college. The first
two weeks, I felt out of place, out of
touch, out of everything. I went
home and told my mom that I
would not be coming back. She told
me to just stick in there.
I talked to friends of mine that
went off to their big universities.
Some of them were feeling the same
things that I was, but most were
having the time of their life. I kept
wondering what was wrong with
me, what was I doing wrong?
However, things got better. I
count myself fortunate that I started
out on the newspaper staff, for with
out it, I would still feel alone. I have
a guaranteed support group of
people that are here to listen to my
frustrations and give me advice
about certain professors. Without
this group of sensitive, talented,
wonderful people, I seriously doubt
that I would have made it past that
first month.
I wish that every incoming
freshman had the opportunity to
have a guaranteed group of friends.
Those that don’t might get lost in
this huge campus where it’s easy
to get lost inside yourself.
To those that are still feeling
that disorientation, this is my ad
vice: get involved with something
that you love to do. There are end
less clubs on campus to get involved
in. It really is worth it
