"Prospects for the Students in
SGA". was the title of Miss Dunn's
speech in which she defined the
various types of student leaders
on campus. Many students, she
said, are worried about the re-sponsibilities
of their job. Others
can't wait to change things. Such
people either ignite or quench
student Interest with heir enhusi-asm
or lack of enthusiasm.
Others, she said, are afraid,

best possible way. 1. Understand

In addition to a record number
of new freshmen and smaller num-bers
of transfers as newcomers
to the campus, the Woman's Col-lege
welcomes five counselors to
the dormitories.
With some variation In Interests
and backgrounds, the counselors
find similarities in their favorable
first Impressions of the College
and Its faculty and students and
their desires to become part-time
students themselves by enrolling
In "Interest" courses here lster

"Your prospects are as broad
or as narrow as you chose to make
them. May they be as wide as the
world Is wide." Lu Stephenson told
the 1958 Pre-School Conference.
Formerly a Woman's College his-tory
major. House President of
Gray and Winfield. and past Presi-dent
of the Golden Chain, Lu re-turned
this summer from s year's
study in Italy at the Bologna Cen-er
of the School of International
Studies of Johns Hopkins Univer-sity.
In a CAROLINIAN Interview
following hrr speech. Lu spoke of
the internal struggle for power
In Italy, of the Italian student,
and of the necessity for reorgani-zation
of American Foreign Serv-ice.
The Service she said was too
eager to extend American aid to
Italy, and at the same time lacked
a basic understanding of cultural
and Ideological Italian codes.
The Italian rightist Christian
Democratic Party, strongly sup-ported
by American foreign aid. is
maintaining power, she said, only
through a coalition with other
anti-Communism Parties. The
communist Social Democrat Party
receives the second largest popu-lar
vote In the Italian Republic,

Czechoslovakia. Italians willingly
support communism. Why do they
demand the discipline and op-pression
of communism? Stephen-son's
theory Is that past church-state
domination, a part of Italian
history for centuries, has led to
susceptibility to communist domi-nation
In the present. Italians
have long been accustomed to
severe discipline; they want it;
LU STEPHENSON
and consequently they support
communism.
Lu talked ot the extremely in-fluential
position of the Italian
student. They not only have a
keen interest in Italian politics,
she said, but have the love and
respect of Italy. Italians have tra-ditionally
honored students They
are given special privileges and
rates. Scholarship Is revered and
consequently the student plays a
vital role In national politics.
