The Cullum Lecture Series is an educational pro- gram which enables interested persons to further their knowledge of foreign cultures, concentrating primarily on those nations which exert considerable influence on the international level. The series is open to all A.C. faculty and students, as well as to all Augusta residents. msiFg )Afooco^ The sun gods and goddesses were out of luck for a while on May 30, 1984 due to a total eclipse of the heart, no sun. Even though Augusta was not in the direct path of the shadow, we did experience some darkening and cooler temperatures during the eclipse. The peak of the eclipse, when the moon fully covered the sun, happened in Augusta at approximately 12:26 p.m. Atlanta, however, was in the direct path of the umbra. This was the last major solar eclipse of this century. The next one will occur in the year 2017. For those of us hoping to be out of college by then, we had only this one chance to celebrate Eclipse Day at A.C. Most people gathered in front of the C.A.C. with their sunglasses; some teachers let their classes experience the eclipse while others played baseball with a ping-pong ball and tennis racket in honor of Augusta College's first annual Eclipse Day. Fortunately, it is no longer necessary to sacrifice a virgin in order to dispell the eclipse and appease the god's anger it's just as r************************** - ii^' ** m ^^' "Trauma Time" Final exams are drawing nearer; It's trauma time. Visions of F's are getting clearer; It's trauma time. All through my late night study, speed, no doze, and Brim I panic because it's trauma time. Why did I wait so long to study or buy the book? Cliff Notes have always been my buddy; I'll take a look. My eyes are road maps, and my nerves are shot to hell; Let's get drunk because it's trauma time! Sung to the tune of "Twilight Time" "Cram It!" You've played all quarter. And you've let it slide. Those books and projects Have been pushed aside. Now time is running out. And there's no place to hide, So cram it! Cram It! Finals again! Oh, damn it! Cram some more history. Cram some more speech. It doesn't matter Whatever they teach Just cram it! Cram It!

B. Dykes Augusta College was chartered in 1925 as the Junior College of Augusta. Fifty years later, A.C. administration, faculty, staff, alumni, and students celebrated half a century of educational progress. In preparation for this celebration. Dr. Ca- shin researched A.C.'s history and traced it to the Academy of Richmond County, one of our nation's oldest high schools. A.R.C. was founded in 1783, a date which should be shared by Augusta Col- lege since several other schools in Geor- gia use founding dates of institutions from which they originated. Presently, the University of Georgia is considered Georgia's oldest institution of higher education, having been found- ed in 1785. The proposal to change A.C.'s founding date to 1783, two years prior to U.G.A.'s, was brought before the Board of Regents July 10th. Unfortunately, the Board rejected this proposal because U.G.A. is planning its 200th birthday celebration in 1985, and such a change in U.G.A.'s standing would detract from its celebration. President Christenberry stated in a press conference that we would use these two years to gather fur- ther evidence to support the proposal to change Augusta College's founding date to 1783. Meanwhile, we students anx- iously await the certain upcoming 2 birthday celebration here at Augusta College! ^ - " - '-.
