Rhett and McKoy were not at
fault
"Obviously, we're disappointed
that there was an incident over the
weekend," Newton said. "We're
encouraged, however, that perhaps

We understand that they may have

well as the basketball program."
Police said more arrests are
pending in this incident and it
should be resolved by the end of

Courses in study habits an<
good nutrition are taking thei
place alongside literature ant
mathematics as North Carolina ant
South Carolina colleges try to hel]
freshmen survive their first year.
The courses are optional a
many schools. But Wingate re
quires them.
"I can't tell you how glad I an
that each one of you is in my
class," said Wingate's Jane Tho
njas, looking over the 24 freshmei
sitting in her Freshman Experienct
seminar.
Already Thomas had welcome*
these new students into her homt
and provided them ? and their pa
rents ? with her home phone
number. Soon, she'll give the stu
dents the Myers-Briggs personality
test to help them discover hov
they learn ? another tool to keef
them in school.
That marks a change from the
'60s, when students were more
likely to be warned that many
wouldn't graduate.

leges were growing by leaps and
bounds, it was more a survival of
the fittest," said Chuck Lynch, vice
chancellor for student affairs at the
University of North Carolina at
Charlotte.
i Demographics are key to underr
standing the colleges' renewed ini
terest in their freshmen, John
i Gardner, director of the University
? of South Carolina's University 101
program, told The Charlotte
t Observer.
- A smaller pool of 18-year-olds
means more colleges are struggling
1 to maintain enrollment, he said.
f And freshman seminar courses
have been shown to reduce the
1 freshman dropout rate, which
* stands at about 25 percent
nationally.
Such courses have beat taught

Gardner said.
' At USC, about 1,600 freshmen
' ? 65 percent of the freshman

University 101 course this fall.
' Even the best students some*
times need help to survive, Gard1
ner says. "They haven't been
taught in high school some things
l they need to be successful ? such
m as how to use a college library or

"The focus is on keeping the students
that you have. You can't >
reload every year," said Steve :
Poston, vice president for enrollment
management at Wingate in
Union County, where a little more
than 30 percent of freshmen don't
return for their sophomore year.
During Thomas' first formal
class with her Wingate students
this week, she quizzed them on;
how they could make a good first
impression with their professors.
In College Is Only the Beginning,
a freshman seminar textbook
co-edited by Gardner, topics include
money and stress management,
alcohol and drug use, birth
| control and nutrition.
