The fraternal project has

when it was formulated by

Motivating empathy for the
project came firstly from the
fraternity’s cardinal principle
of scholarship. Each chapter
must promote scholarship
among young students of its
community.
Secondly, the cost of higher
education was beyond the

Title BSU To Present
Black Awareness
By Audrey Frazier
The Black Student Union of
Augusta College will present
Black Awareness Week
beginning Monday, Feb. 17.
Numerous events have been
planned for the week including
speakers, films, Black art and a
talent and fashion show.
The talent and fashion show
will be held Tuesday night at
7:30 p.m. in the Performing
Arts Theater.
The theme of the show is
“Talent and Fashions
Unlimited”. Talent from
throughout the Augusta area
will perform and fashions from
Incidentally, Mr. Kidd is a
music instructor at Paine
College and the musician for
Paine’s Concert Choir. The
performance of these two
musicians was spectacular.
But after assessing the
concert, one is compelled to
wonder where was the crowd?
This might bring a reader to
ask, “Why should I have been
there?”
Well first of all, the overall
cultural level of the Central
Savannah River area is not
what it should be. The
youngsters growing up in the
area are culturally deprived in
the area of art expression,
because many adults do not
take time to expose the young
minds to cultural aesthetics,
(song, creative dance, ballet,
and writings).
Some say that music will
'tame the savage beast’.
However, that is referring to
soothing good music, This
writer is convinced that one’s
behavior is influenced to a
degree by the type of music
that he is exposed to. We talk
about the ‘rowdy’ nature of
many of our young. But we
must consider that most
present day ‘rock’ music is
loud, rowdy, and in some
cases, distasteful and
downright vulgar. This, my
friend, influences the
temperment of the person
listening to the music.
This writer was appointed to
an Art Commission by Rep.
Butler Derrich of Edgefield
County and confirmed by Gov.
John West of South Carolina
local merchants will be
presented.
Able Disabled
To Meet
The ABLE-DISABLED will
meet Tuesday evening, FEB.
18TH, 7:30 p.m. at the Ga.
War Veterans Home, 1101
15th St., Augusta.
Mr. R.C. Calloway, Assistant
Regional Director of Ga.
Vocational Rehabilitation will
be the guest speaker.

but the commission was never
funded and we have not had a
single meeting. Therefore, the
children of this area are
doomed to suffer even more
cultural deprivation.
Another reason for
supporting the concert was the
participants were local. The
musicians were local educators.
Ms. Burrell, though she has
lived in Boston and suns with
the Boston Symphony and at
Town Hill in New York, she
was born in Graniteville, S.C.
and went to school in Aiken
County only twelve miles from
Augusta.
Most people of the area
missed a grand concert... Come
