Spring term • • reg1strat1on starts Jan. 19 Priority registration has been assigned to those students who applied prior to December 31 and to those who have made appointments. This period of registration will be January 19-30. According to Herman C. Lee, registrar, there should be no problem in handling the over 1,000 students who have already signed up for registration. Said Lee, "The priority registration system was established based on the an· ticipated registrants." Lee also said, "It is hoped that students will stick to their appointments, which are set up to minimize inconveniences. The appointment schedule should reduce long lines."
Students whose applications are received after December 31 will be issued registration tickets and may register between January 27 and 30 in the Student Union. Open registration for students who do not apply early enough to receive either a priority appointment or a registration ticket will be held February 2-6 in the Student Union. Registration hours will be from 8 a.m. to 8:30p.m. Monday through Thursday and 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Fridays. Faculty advisors and instructors will be available to help students who encounter problems with their schedules. J
A student who is unable to make his appointed time may either register at any time afterward or have someone else register for him, making sure the substitute has the necessary identification, priority card, and fee payments. "It is important," said Lee, "that students plan their schedule ahead of time and work out alternative schedules . Students should also see a counselor before coming to registration, and should have their cash or check for payment of registration fees."
Lee also reminds students that registration does not take priority over regular classes or final examinations. If conflicts arise, students may register after the class. Students who want to register just for continuing education non-credit classes may register by mail. These classes are found in the 7000 series in the Spring Bulletin. Such students can see the Admissions office for details. Application forms are still available in the Admissions office.

"I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former s 1aves and the sons of former slaveowners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood." Those immortal words were spoken by the late Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., a Black civil rights leader who was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

King first emerged as a civil rights leader in 1956 in Montgomery, Alabama when Rosa Parks refused to relinquish her seat to a white passenger. King led a boycott of the local bus lines, which eventually proved an enormous victory for the civil rights movement. King's weapon for obtaining civil rights was different from past leaders Others had advocated violence, but Kin·g preached nonviolence. He believed so strongly in nonviolence that on many occasions he was subjected to extremely harsh treatment. In one of his speeches he said, "We have come to the point where we are able to say to those who will even use violence to block us, we will match your capacity to inflict suffering with our capacity to endure suffering." For his struggle toward civil rights , King was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo in 1964. This confirmed him as

one of the greatest men the struggle for peace had ever witnessed. His followers saw in him a hope for a better world, not merely for Blacks and minorities but for all of mankind. On the night of April4, 1968 the world was shocked when news spread that Martin Luther King had been killed by an assassin's bullet. He had become a victim ofthe very thing he had denounc· ed - violence. Though he was slain in the prime of his life, King's dream of a better world still lives on in the hearts and minds of many millions. The words that he spoke when visualizing his dream are still vivid. "When we let freedom ring -when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, Black men and White men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of that old Negro spiritual 'f'ree at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, weare free at last!'"
