IN THE CREEK NEWS IN SGA

By Morgan Brown Staff Writer

On September 27, Freshman Class Vice President Jerrell Deaver read the resignation letter of Freshman Class President-elect Blake Scruggs. After Scruggs resigned, Vice President Jerrell Deaver was made President. Deaver stepped down soon after and Nick Hudson was appointed President.

Scruggs, a Trust and Wealth Management major, said he became a part of the Student Government Association (SGA) for networking purposes. Scruggs resigned last week, however, due to a full schedule.

“I simply resigned because my schedule would not permit it,” he said.

An anonymous source, however, stated that Scruggs resigned due to multiple deceptions concerning an excuse for absence during an SGA retreat.

It was rumored that Scruggs was being impeached, although Brandon Hudson and Nolan Perry, current Executive Student Body President and Vice President respectively, have stated that no impeachment has occurred.

“The situation was resolved internally and the best interest of the student body and the SGA was served,” Perry said.

An impeachment, by definition, is an accusation.

“The impeachment policy is a very serious matter and it activates a very structured system of meetings,” Perry said.

If the accusation is accepted, the Rules Committee, the Executive President and Executive Vice President must jointly decide if there is enough sufficient evidence to impeach. The charges would be formulated and reported to the Congress of SGA. Congress would vote and then if the vote passed, a trial would be held. The order of the trial is taken from Robert’s Rules of Order, Newly Revised.

The entirety of the impeachment proceedings are outlined in the 2012 SGA Constitution. No member of SGA has ever been impeached.

Spider, bearded dragons, snakes, and insects crawled into Buies Creek Elementary School onThursday morning.

Campbell’sWalker Biology Club hosted their “Creepy Crawlies” program for students in 1st-5th grade to learn about animals through touch and observation.

“We want to younger kids to realize an animal they think is scary, like a spider, is really a friend,” Meredith St. Clair, president of the Walker Biology Club, said.

Thejuniorbiology,pre-professionalmajorandvolunteers helped set up stations for the students to interact with the creatures.

The interactive stations included microscopes with insects, a bearded dragon display,andablacked-outstation, where students shine a flashlight on a wolf spider.

Dr. John Bartlett, a Campbell biology professor, who also helped with the setup of the program, said the club has put on the“Crawlies”program for years.

“Last year, I brought a 10-1/2 ft long snake named Medusa,” Zavala said.

The senior said the elementary students are often tentative,whenfacedwiththe snake because children are often taught to be afraid of snakes.

Club founders Frankie Crawford Jr., Brenden McNamerra, Mike Beachy, and Adil Azza (not pictured) pose for a photo.

Hello, Campbell Students and faculty! Let me start off by introducing myself, I am Frankie Crawford Jr. a 23 year Army retiree. I have spent my entire adult life serving this wonderfulnationandamnow finally able to enjoy college life as a Campbell University Student.Itmayhavetakenme 23 years to get here, but it is something that I am truly enjoying. Just look for me each week at our football games, every week I have a different face paint design. Now, I could continue to go on and

on and on about myself and my experience around the world and such, but that is not what this is about.

Some of you may personally know who I am and my fellow veterans Mike Beachy, Brendan McNamarra and Adil Azza. You see, we all came to Campbell after our service in the military which resulted in various years of service, locations, as well as worldconflicts.Theonething wehaveincommonisthatwe have founded the Campbell University Student Veterans

Club. So there you have it, we may be finished with service to our country, but we still wish to help our community as we have our nation. I truly hope this club will not be seen as just another club, but a place where fellow veteransaswellasnewstudents can come together. A club that can share experiences, specialskills knowledge and most of all advise each other aboutlessonslearned,butto assist in making the transition to college life easier.

I would like to invite all of you to view my Blog, http:// frankiecrawfordjr.blogspot. com/ “My Experience at Campbell University…Life after 23 Years in the Army.”

As with the veterans club, this is a look at what it is like to return to a life that has been full of ups and downs.

Whether you are a veteran or just a new student to college life like myself, we hope to assist in surviving the everyday challenges we all face. So, as I closethisfirstarticle,ofwhich I hope will be many more useful and informative ones, I ask of you to take a moment and let our military members know how thankful we are for all they do on a daily basis.

Professor of the week column: Dr. Phillip Morrow

Production brings inspiration Few stage productions of the past 100 years have had the impact, longevity, and powerofLesMiserables--that epic adaptation by Boubil, Natal, and Schonberg of Victor Hugo’s novel. Well, Les Miz turned 25 recently.

It’s actually 27 this year, but the 25th anniversary performances, including London, U.S. tours, and the concert version,keepthecelebrations coming. The power of Les Miz, as is true with most great works of art I guess, lies in a convergenceofexcellences.A grippingstory,amonumental score, a skillful libretto, and themagicoftalentedproducers,directors,andperformers are all integral parts of the fantasticwholeandthepiece we now know and appreciate.

But I’m wondering if these elements alone are the reason that Les Miz still grips us. I mean, the story of Jean Valjean, his life’s difficulties andtriumphs,couchedinthe setting of the French Revolutioniscertainlyenoughtoentertain and even thrill us, but is that what grabs us by the scruff of the neck and pulls us into this story? I think that, in reality, the truth is deeper.

The real reasons that Les Miz

enchants us is because its themes touch us on a deeplevel--a soul level, a spiritual level.

Those themes--hope, love, faith, truth,freedomandhonor--are what engage us. Whether it’s thehopeofFantineorValjean in a better life for those they love, or the freedom sung about so passionately by the young band of dissenters, or perhaps the theme of honor as evidenced in the spirit of those student dissenters and the actions of Valjean, these themesdrawusinpowerfully.

To me, however, it is the faith references that are most powerful. Valjean’s prayer for God to protect Marius on the barricade, Bring Him Home, is surely one of the most poignant moments of the story, as it illustratesValjean’s recognitionthat,evenwithall ofhisresourcesandpower,he is essentially powerless in the larger matters of life on earth.

His plea to God is one with which we all can identify. It reminds us, particularly as peopleoffaith,ofourreliance on God.

Even more compelling is the embedded Christ reference. When Valjean forgives Javert--a person who has devoted his life to imprisoning if not killing him--rather thantakinghisownopportunity to end Javert’s life, we are struck by his sense of virtue.

InValjean’s act of setting free Javert, we see a picture of grace and forgiveness that is overwhelming. Muchlikethe gospel story…

Wow. Gets me every time.

It is the quintessence of why art, in all its forms, is so powerful. It’s why I teach music.

You see, art can allow us to see things on a deeper level.

It can reveal truths that may otherwise lie hidden. It can touch us, much like the Spirit, with“groanings too deep for words.”

Now look. If you’ve never seen Les Miserables on the stage, put it on your bucket list today. DVD and YouTube clips don’t count.You need to see it live on a musical stage.

And guess what? This December a movie production of the musical is coming to a theatre near you. While I’m sure it’ll be worth seeing, I’m also sure that only the livestageproductionisbucketlist worthy. Do it!

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Register of Deeds urges change To the Editor: As the Register of Deeds in Wake County for the past 16 years, I’ve watched and worked with many fellow Registers around the state. Some work harder than others to protect taxpayers and provide excellent customer service.

For Harnett County voters who value a professional outside opinion, I strongly endorse Darryl Black, the conservative candidate for your Register of Deeds.

With Darryl’s extensive background in business and management, he has the skill, experience, ethics, and professionalism to serve Harnett County’s hardworking citizens.

Unfortunately, Harnett County’s incumbent Register has not protected taxpayers, in my view. To the contrary, she pushed through a fee increase of $1.3 million a year during a deep and painful recession.

And she is a prominent figure in the state association of Registers, which has been criticized widely for spending lavishly, improperly soliciting financial contributions from office vendors, doling out taxpayer-funded gifts to each other, and spending more time socializing on the taxpayers’ dime than doing the public’s business.

Darryl Black, who has deep Harnett County roots and graduated from N.C. State University, is a devoted fiscal steward. He has more sense than to raise customer fees during a recession or charge taxpayers to attend a four-day beach party.

If you want a Register of Deeds who will respect taxpayers, cut waste, improve public services, and uphold the highest ethics, I urge you to elect Darryl Black. He will do right and make you proud.

The good people of Harnett County deserve nothing less.

Right in the bull’s-eye

By Sean Neal News Editor

In our youth, and even now all young adults strive to be something.

We even strive to be the best something that we can be.

There’s a general, albeit broad spectrum of dreams that most of us have had as children.

However,Campbellsophomore and Communications Studies major Hannah Joyce got involved young age and her activity of interest does not fit perfectly in a typical spectrum. Her turf is not in a studio, or a sports arena, but in her own backyard.

HannahJoyceisacompetitive marksman, or hunter.

“I shoot bow, rifle, shotgun,andmuzzleloader,”Joyce said.

A muzzleloader is a shortrange, single-shot weapon, one carried by the likes of Daniel Boone.

Joyce couldn’t start the officialhuntingprogramuntil she turned 10 and received her hunter’s safety license and certifications. But when she did, her father built her a competition-regulationrange in their backyard, nestled in the country ofYadkin County.

Her dad is her inspiration for hunting.

“We have a really good father-daughterrelationship.

He’s like my best friend; we doeverythingtogether,”Joyce said.

In the mountains, Joyce grew up hunting, which was a sport more common than baseball in school, where the school had their own range.

“We would leave school andgostraighttopractice.We had a long history of national championships,” Joyce said.

As far as her personal

achievementsgo, the list is pretty extensive, amounting to several awards a yearfrom Joyce 2005 to 2008. Her most esteemed award was her 2nd place in Individual Rifle at the National level.

Overall, hunting is something Joyce is clearly passionateabout.Shehasthepractice hoursandtheawardstoprove it.

“It’s very exciting, especially when I’m hunting something I’ve never hunted before,” Joyce said of the experience.“Like for example the bear hunt I went on in December, that was so exciting.

It’sreallyfast-paced,getsyour heartpumping,justasurgeof adrenaline,andthenyoumeet thatanimalandit’sreallyclose to you, and then, it’s a really quick reaction. It’s just an overwhelming joy to harvest an animal like that.”

Being a hunter, Joyce has faced some opposition of the practice from more animalrights minded people.

“Most of the time, I tell them that I don’t just kill to kill. And I don’t believe in poaching. And we kill to eat, so it’s not like we’re wasting theanimal,andGodputthem here for us to eat,”Joyce said.

Her dedication to hunting has benefitted Joyce both on and off the field. It has taught her certain skills that are valuable in everyday life, such as timemanagementanddedication.

Sophomore Hannah Joyce fulfills her passion of shooting by going on in the field to practice with various weapons. her dedication to the hunting practice, and thinks it has been helpful in her studies at Campbell.

“I think it helps her, in a certain regard, be patient,” Kenny said. “In my video production classes, you’ve got to be patient when you’re dealingwithactors,andcrew, and that type of thing. I think when you go out and your either sitting on a stand, or having a hunt in the woods, you’ve got to be, well, deliberate in what you’re doing.”

Joyce’s close friend, junior education major Jaclyn Meyers, says that Joyce is ambitious and outgoing, and doesn’t do anything halfway.

“She’s a problem solver,” Meyers said. “Like if you’ve got a question, you come to Hannah, she’s got this.”

Meyers is an RA in Powell HallwithJoyce,andtheyhave been friends since freshman year.

Of course Joyce being a marksmanhasitsownunique part in their friendship.

Meyers explained that Joyce’svastknowledgeofguns sort of comes out in everyday life. “Whenever we watch a movie,it’sfunnybecauseshe’s into guns and all that, and whenever there’s a weapon,

she’s going to tell you like what it is, why that’s not logical, and why they shouldn’t have picked that weapon for the movie,” Meyers said.

Joyce won an award for being the best RA on campus her first semester being an RA, and is also president of Lambda Pi Eta, the Communications honor society here at Campbell.

Herachievementshunting out on the field, that practice of dedication to work has clearly impacted her as a person and led to some big achievements.

Joyce hopes to be able to incorporate her award-winning hunting skills, as well as her concentration studies in Broadcasting and Electronic Media,intowhatevershedoes in the future. Her biggest goal is to start her very own hunting show, which would focus on real women hunters, such as herself, who take the sport seriously.

My goal now is just to go around and hunt things; I have a list of all these things that I want to hunt. Like eventually I want to shoot an elk, and I want to shoot a cougar.

I’m just saving up money to go!” Joyce said.

“I got to see my friend try to eat 12 moon pies,”said sophomore elementary education major Maritza Perez.“I haven’t been to a bonfire ever, so this is my first one. It has been a lot of fun.”

Themoonpieeatingcontest and the“Name that 90’s Song” contest both proved to be popular, and all the activities combined to create a successful Campus Activities Board (CAB) event.

“We had around 300 to 400 people there, which is a really good turnout,” said Parkes. “I think this whole week has seen some amazing turnout. We have had hundreds of people come out to all of the Spirit Week events.”

While some participants may claim the bonfire as their favorite event, others, like Perez, enjoyed the hypnotist the most.

“I have been to every [Spirit Week activity], and the hypnotist has been my favorite. The hypnotist is going to be really hard to beat,”explained Perez.

No matter the affair, it seems to be the people at Campbell that make these events welcoming and enjoyable. Students expressed their gratitude towards CAB for the work they put into SpiritWeek andotheractivitiesthroughout the year.

“I appreciate that [CAB] triestoalwayshavesomething for us to do,” said freshman psychology major Doryan Arnold. “Straight up though, [my favorite thing about Campbell is] the people.There may not always be a lot of stuff to do, but when you have good friends, you can always have a good time.”

Upcoming election brings faceoff between political parties

By Courtney Schultz Editor In Chief

President of College Democrats, Louis Duke

What are the College Democrats doing to support your candidate?

We’re working every day on campus to organize students, volunteers, and people who are passionate about this campaign for the president’s reelection. We’re registering studentseverydayoncampus.

We’re making massive efforts to get out the vote and make sure students stay engaged in this election to make sure we deliver as many students as possible in the state of North Carolina for the president’s reelection as a pivotal swing state this year.

What will your candidate bring to the table?

The president and his campaign have a really strong election team in the state of North Carolina; we’re such a pivotal swing state this year.

We’ve gotten a lot of attention and focus on the universities and the college communities in North Carolina. Just last week, we saw Michelle Obama, the First Lady, make stops at North Carolina Central University in Durham and East Carolina University in Greensville and this coming week Vice President Joe Biden will be in Asheville and Charlotte. The president’s campaignisbringingmomentous force into North Carolina to deliver to the state and that effort translates right down to Campbell University, where thepresident’sreelectionteam has been on campus ensuring that we do everything we can to deliver the university for President Obama’s reelection and Democrats up and down the ticket.

What do you feel is your candidate’s main goal?

I really feel the president will continue prioritizing,

getting the economy back on track. The president has really laid out a clear vision for economic growth in this nation and job creation and continuing his efforts we saw in the first administration, including rescuing the auto industry. He’s making huge strides for equality for all citizens and working to ensuring that every American has the best chance possible, the best voice possible inWashington D.C., where the president has efforts like expanding Pell grantstocollegestudentsand makingsurestudentloanrates don’t double. The president is really standing up for the middle class and the working class in this election, ensuring everyone has a fair shot in this nation. That’s the American Dream and that’s the way it should be.

What will he do to benefit college students?

The president has been a constant advocate for the issuescollegestudentscaremost about. We saw four years ago that the Senate said that we couldn’t do it, that college students don’t vote, that they’re apathetic, that we wouldn’t rise up and support a candidate that takes our country back and that’s exactly what happened. We saw this over the summer, where there was gridlockanddivideinpartisan interests in Congress that was goingtopreventstudentloans continuing at their normal rates.

How do you feel local support helps the national campaign?

This campaign across the nationalisfundamentallybuilt upon our grassroots supporters spread out in all corners of all 50 states across this beautifulnation.Wecouldabsolutely not do what we do to fight off the corporate interests and interest of big money inside special interests in Washington to continue our hard work without people all across the country coming together as Americans to fight for what they believe in and to fight for what is right. That’s what we see here in North Carolina, where we’ve registered hundreds of thousands of voters that come together as volunteersinacommunitytoensure we have another four years of PresidentBarackObamainthe White House and that’s why we will win. We are fighting the special, corporate, wellfundedshadow-super-packsof the right wing with grassroots efforts to continue the progressmade,tocontinuemoving this nation forward.

not just a certain portion of the population, but creating those incentives for job creatorstogetpeoplebackto work.

What will he do to benefit college students?

The best thing any president can do for young people is fix this economy to create greater job opportunities for the future of America.

The goal of this year’s Christmas Store Drive is to help serve 100 families, which is roughly 300 kids, which would mean that store would need roughly 1,200 toys in order to complete their goal.

There are flyers and boxes all over the campus about the Christmas Store.

The Christmas Store will need volunteers to come and contribute. Volunteer opportunitiesincludedecoratingthe communitystore,greetingthe families whenever they come to pick up the gifts, helping wrap the gifts, or showing the familieshowtogothroughthe process.

For those who cannot physicallyhelp,individualscan donate a toy, gift card, etc.The store requires the donated toy to be new and priced 10 to 20 dollars.

The Campus ministry has maderegistrationeasyandencouragespotentialvolunteers to visit Campbell’s website. All are free to register for multiple opportunities to help.

“Through this ministry initiative, we seek to bless God by blessing our brothers and sisters here in Harnett County,” said Ward.

Christ says in the Bible that nothing should make one happier or more at peace than helping others in their time of struggle. God acknowledges the toy, the time, or even the prayer given to help someone else.

Tribute band Best‘hidden’characters rocks the stage

It gives the audienceachancetolettheirimaginationstakeoverandifdonerightanunseencharacter can steal the show. It’s just a matter of less being more.

Glenn Coco

Tina Fey’s non ”30 Rock” masterpiece “Mean Girls” presents a world of Plastics, band geeks, jocks, and a handful of Saturday Night Live alumni. In the wilderness of characters, a lone hero arose. His name is Glenn Coco. Little is known of Glenn Coco.

They kept playing and put themselves in a position at the end of the game to maybe have a chance to win the football game, and I’m extremely proud of them.”

Although the Camels comeback fell short, the players on the team have confidence that tonight’s performancewillbuildforthefuture.
