ADVISOR

West Georgia College is a coeducational, residential, liberal arts institution located in
Carrollton. The city of Carrollton serves as the county seat of Carroll County and is
one of Georgia's fastest growing industrial areas. Carrollton serves a regional population
of more than 100,000 and is located an hours drive west of Atlanta.

West Georgia College originated in 1906 in an area of the state that is rich in Indian
history (thus the selection of the school's mascot - Braves).

From the early beginnings in 1906 of three small buildings, the college has grown to
include more than 40 structures of learning, living, and recreation located on a 398-acre
wooded campus. The physical facilities are valued at more than $88.5 million.

THE ORDER OF OMEGA

The Order of Omega was founded at the University of Miami in the Fall of
1959 by a group of outstanding fraternity men, who felt that individuals in
the Greek community should be recognized for their service to the fraternity
system and the University.

The Theta Epsilon Chapter of The National Order of Omega was chartered
at West Georgia College on May 20, 1987. This National Greek Leadership
Honor Society recognizes the top three percent of Greeks on West Georgia's
Campus. Candidates are chosen because of exceptional character,
scholarship, service, and leadership in inter-Greek affairs.

A

CLASS

ACT

Do you remember the details of a televi-
sion program you saw two weeks ago?
Could you summarize its plot and pass a
test on it? If not, no harm's done. But if
you recollect no more about a class you at-
tended recently, you're missing out. Unlike
tube-watching, college classes demand
more than simply sitting. Here's how to get
the most out of them.

1. Go to class prepared. Class ses-
sions are usually based on your as-
signments. If you haven't done
those assignments, what the teach-
er and your classmates have to say
may be mostly lost on you. If you've
done the advance work, you'll un-
derstand the lecture more fully and
participate in the discussions much
more freely.

2. Listen actively. That means more
than hearing. Like effective reading,
it requires you to relate what you
hear to what you already know, and
to identify the main points. Listen es-
pecially for such expressions as
"the two major ideas are" or "it's
important to remember that" and to
whatever your professor repeats for
emphasis.

3. Notes are a must. You cannot re-
member enough without them. Use
abbreviations that are convenient
and understandable to you, learn to
use an outline form, and select.
Don't ever try to record everything
said, even if you know shorthand.
You don't want the words to travel
directly from your instructor's
mouth to your notebook without
passing through your brain. If you
miss something important, leave
room in your notebook and fill it in
later by asking a reliable classmate
or your professor.

4. Ask questions. If you're confused
about something, never hesitate to
ask. What did the professor just
say? Isn't that different from what
the book says? What does that word
mean? Can you run that by me once
more? Ask! Professors want you to
learn, but they can't read the ques-
tions in your mind. If you're not com-
fortable raising questions in class,
approach the professor after class

or make an office appointment.
Don't let a single question go unan-
swered.

5. Organize your notes either while
you're taking them or immediately
afterwards. Otherwise they'll make
little sense when you go back to
them. The lecture may have a clear
order, like the dates of important
events or their causes and effects.
But professors often speak without
notes and include student feedback,
making their presentations more in-
teresting but less systematic than a
book's. If necessary, add your own
summary to tie it all together.

6. After class, review your notes.
Make sure they are titled with sub-
ject headings and, when the time
comes to prepare for tests, coordi-
nated with your reading assignment
notes. That way you'll get it all
together. And, if you missed a con-
nection or find what looks like a con-
tradiction between text and lecture,
you'll have a chance to clarify it.

7. Above all, go to class. There are all
kinds of penalties for cutting. Make
sure that you know your college's
regulations and each professor's

policy on lateness and absences.
Otherwise you may discover, too
late, that you have overcutand auto-
matically dropped from that class. In
some cases, this can have serious
consequences even beyond that
course.
But even when you're not forced to,
go to class. Missing class gives you a
handicap, a gap in your knowledge and un-
derstanding. Save your absences for un-
avoidable urgencies. Even then, make them
up by contacting your teacher, in advance
if possible, to find out what will be or has
been covered. Also, call a classmate with
whom you've exchanged phone numbers to
get the class notes as well as new assign-
ments you missed. That way you won't be
short-changed on the session you missed,
and you'll be prepared for the next one.

MAKING THE COLLEGE SCENE

Do you know anyone who would go to
an exotic city and spend a whole vacation
there watching television? You're making
the same mistake cheating yourself
it you confine your college experience to the
classroom.

For a student who has a job or other re-
sponsibilities, the temptation is great to get
off campus fast. Your time is limited, and all
that collegiate stuff outside of class is not
mandatory. So why waste the time? Be-
cause "all that stuff" is really not a waste.
Contact with professors, friendships with
your classmates, extracurricular activities,
the riches of the library - these make up the
"life" of your college life.

The faculty is a tremendous resource
out of class as well as in. Professors,
instructors and lecturers are more than
teachers. They're scientists, writers, psy-
chologists, business people, mathemati-
cians, artists, philosophers, musicians,
historians, engineers. They're experts and
scholars, active and highly knowledgeable
in their fields, often consulted by others for
their ideas. And here they are in your
orbit.

Seek them out, especially those teach-
ers whose fields you have a particular inter-
est in. Ask for a few minutes of their time.
Take the initiative to get acquainted with
them during their office hours, by appoint-
ment, or at any other time and place that's
mutually convenient. You can profit enor-
mously by discussing your work in the
course, its connections with other subjects,
your career goals, or your problems.

Classmates offer a rich opportunity
for new friendships. Their presence in
your class gives them at least one thing in
common with you. You'll find more. Those
with different backgrounds are what
"broadening your horizons" is all about.
Aside from the rewards of friendship, you'll
benefit from studying with them, exchang-
ing ideas, helping them when they need
help, and drawing on their support when
you're faced with problems. The friends you
make in college often remain your friends
for life.

The first class session is a good time
to introduce yourself to a few other stu-
dents. Exchange telephone numbers so
that if you are absent, they can give you the
homework assignments and the material
you missed in class. Try to arrange to study
together and work on assignments togeth-
er. This has both educational and social val-
ue. Very often, students who form "study
groups" do far better in college than those
who always work alone.

Clubs, teams, organizations and other
student activities open you up to additional
friendships, plus recreation. They may also
add to your knowledge of an academic sub-
ject, expand your understanding of an occu-
pational field, help sharpen your skills and

give you real-life experience, all in a relaxed
social setting.

"The true university," someone said a
century ago, "is a collection of books." To-
day, your college library is more than that
and more than a "study tank." Besides
books and magazines, it's stocked with
such audio and visual resources as films,
cassettes, art and photographic reproduc-
tions, recordings of speeches, poetry and
plays, all kinds of music and more. Lib-
rarians are on hand to help acquaint you
with what's there and how to find what
you're looking for. Cash in on this treasure,
not only for your work but for your pleasure.

Orientation programs are designed by
your college to introduce you to the college
scene. They explore such questions as
course requirements, sources of financial
aid, how to add a course or withdraw from

one without penalty, and how to get a tutor
or a transcript of your grades. They save
you a lot of legwork by telling you where to
go for all kinds of help. And they give you
the opportunity to meet and share your con-
cerns with fellow students.

Your college is rich in resources
people, services and opportunities, but
none of them will come and get you. You will
have to go and get them. Only your initiative
will determine how much of a return you get
from your investment in college.

What Is Rush?

Formal rush for both men and women is a time for rushees and
initiated members to get to know each other better through a series
of carefully planned "parties," After Rush has been completed and bids
have been extended, you will begin pledging/associating with the fra-
ternity or sorority of your choice.

It is important to come to Rush with an open mind and to give
each chapter equal consideration. Be yourself! Rush is a mutual selec-
tion process, so remember as you evaluate each chapter, they will eval-
uate you. Do not let other's opinions make the decision for you, but
go with your own feelings, for the decision will affect the rest of your
college years.

You may wonder what qualities Greek organizations look for in
an individual. Completing a rush application will give you an idea of
these qualities. Personality and interest are also important, but so is
academics, since it is the main reason you are attending college.

Always be sure to ask questions. If you have any questions pertain-
ing to rush, financial matters, or social activities, ask someone to clear
up these points for you!

Another important point to consider is finances. Careful consider-
ation should be given to your financial situation before making any
obligations.

Even though a rushee is not obligated to pledge/associate at the
end of rush, we ask you to look carefully at Greek life as it is a way
for you to meet the Greeks and to find out about the opportunities we
have to offer. Like it . . . We love it! Go Greek!

IFC Fraternities

Becoming a member of a fraternity can be a great college experi-
ence. No other group at this university can offer you the brotherhood,
interfraternal camaraderie, and social activities that a fraternity can.

Fraternity members are highly visible on campus and that is due
to the opportunity for campus and community involvement that
Greek life provides. A good percentage of the student leader positions
are held by Greeks. Many local, regional and national charities have
benefitted from the thousands of dollars and man hours that are do-
nated by our chapters. Joining a fraternity is a life commitment.
Greek alumni always have a place to call home, and college men to
call brothers. Alumni brothers are regularly informed of IFC and
chapter events through financial support to the chapter. Presidents,
senators, successful businessmen and celebrities have said that being
Greek gave them the leadership qualities and confidence to succeed.

The Greek life has been beneficial to many people. They chose
to become Greek because of the opportunity to meet and socialize
with others who had similar interests to improve academic progress,
and to develop lasting friendships. Through IFC Rush, you have the
opportunity to make that same choice, Best of luck in finding the fra-
ternity that's right for you!

BLACK GREEK COUNCIL

The Black Greek Council of West Georgia College extends to you a hearty welcome to
our campus. This is the beginning of many new and exciting experiences. The college
experience provides an opportunity to prepare for a career, develop talents, meet new challenges,
and develop your individuality.

Membership in a Greek letter organization enhances this growth by encouraging high
ideals in scholarship, service, and leadership through the acceptance of responsibility associated
with group membership. There are seven historically black Greek letter organizations at West
Georgia College - four fraternities (Alpha Phi Alpha, Kappa Alpha Psi, Omega P si Phi, and Phi
Beta Sigma) and three sororities (Alpha Kappa Alpha, Sigma Gamma Rho, and Zeta Phi Beta).
The Black Greek Council coordinates the activities of these organizations and serves as a
mediator to insure cooperation. The Council also promotes and maintains high academic
standards and provides activities for social interaction.

At designated times throughout the course of the academic year, the individual
organizations sponsor a program designed to make interested students aware of the basic ideals,
purposes and philosophies of that particular group. The programs also inform the students of the
advantages of Greek life. In addition, the programs familiarize the students with the requirements
for joining and the standards for membership. For additional information, the interested student
should contact the Assistant Director of Student Activities for Greek Life at (404) 836-6526.

Panhellenic Sororities

A sorority is a home away from home; a group of girls who
make your adjustment to college life a little easier. Sisterhood,
beginning the day you become a pledge, is a term that is diffi-
cult to explain yet is the basis of every sorority. Sisterhood re-
sults from sharing dreams, goals, laughter and tears. Sisterhood
provides you with lasting friendships and memories that will
enrich your college years and which you will cherish many years
to follow.

Along with sisterhood come other very important elements
of sorority life, such as scholarship and leadership. Sorority
women stress the importance of academic achievement through
various scholarship programs. As a pledge you are encouraged
to study with others in the same major so that the more experi-
enced women can help if you have a problem. Chapter scholar-
ship awards are also part of this picture.

Sorority members may accept membership on various
committees within the sorority as well as others on campus.
Members are encouraged to assume leadership of committees
by serving as chapter officers. Sororities work together on chari-
ty projects as well as community and campus affairs to increase
school spirit as well as increase student participation in all cam-
pus affairs.

We can't stop there . . . other important elements of sorori-
ty life include sporting and social events. Intramurals between
sororities provide friendly competition among the women. Flag
football, volleyball, soccer and basketball are just a few! Re-
merriber ... anyone can play. Sororities are involved in social
events such as formals, Greek Week and banquets just to get
you started; but there are many more!

I hope that you will have begun to get an idea of what soror-
ity life is all about. Rush Week will give you the opportunity
to view all of the sororities . . . ask questions! Whatever sorority
you choose as your home, the friendships you form will be
strong and lasting and will build memories you'll cherish a life-
time.
