Students Test    Alumni, Parties, Parade
Voting Trends  ^nd Football Game
To Be Centers of Attraction
By  LAWRENCE  BROWN
Education 243 and 245 which
deal with the teaching of the Social Studies and English in the secondary schools, under the direction
of Dr. Marie Rivers, undertook a
project which concerned the forthcoming election. This project was
launched with a presidential and
gubernatorial survey of voting
trends among faculty and students
at A&T College.
FOR PRESIDENT
Kennedy —  Democrat 1,663
Nixon — Republican 1,137
FOR   VICE   PRESIDENT
Johnson — Democrat 1,545
Lodge — Republican 1,042
FOR GOVERNOR
Sanford — Democrat 1,583
Gavin — Republican 884
Some of the statements that the
students gave were quite astonishing.
"I am voting the Democratic ticket because the Republicans have
made no move to investigate the
many major incidents here in the
South."
"I'm with Kennedy because he is
young and handsome."
"My choice is Nixon because the
presidency is too much of a responsibility for a young man such as
Kennedy.'
"Who are the candidates?"
"When is the election to take
place?'"
"I don't care who wins."
"Nixon is the better since he was
vice president."
The purpose of this poll was to
find out how our students and faculty felt about November's election.
It is the concensus of opinion
among our class member that the
survey proved quite revealing as
well as interesting. We feel that our
students need to be more informed
as to the functioning of our government. This can be done through the
extensive reading of newspapers,
magazines, and listening to radio
news casts.
