UNIT 5

Principal : Good morning, and welcome to Scholastic House I am delighted to see

you here It is my duty to explain to you some of the history of our college and some of the traditions which I hope you will uphold The idea for Scholastic House was expounded by Samuel Wells in 1898 Wells was a visionary, whose ideas were well ahead

of his time He wanted a college which would encourage friendship between people of different races and nationalities Wells died in 1900 before he could see the college in action Scholastic House finally began operating in 1903 with ten students Those students came from Asia, Europe, and the Americas At that time Scholastic House accepted only male students, although it has been co-educational since 1963 Nine of these foundation students went on to lead illustrious lives; the only exception died tragically on his way home from Scholastic House to Sarawak He had only recently graduated with an honors degree in Law, and he was robbed of a brilliant future

The other nine students, as I said, led very fulfilling lives Three became political leaders, three became doctors Perhaps the most famous graduate became a university teacher and was responsible for the introduction of modern teaching training methods in his country Two of the original group became senior engineers and went on to deeply influence the way the water systems of their country were exploited

The college ran into hard times during the period of the Great War, 1914 to 1918, when the charter of the college was interpreted to mean that neither students nor staff could take part in the war effort Many people felt that this indicated a lack of national spirit, and the walls of the college were frequently marked with graffiti Meantime, outside the college, tens of thousands of young men went away to fight in Europe, never

to return

The college was building a reputation for learning and for tolerance of opposing views Scholastic House debate and discussion nights were open to the public in 1927, and have been available to anyone who wishes to attend ever since It is a proud tradition

of the college that any view may be expressed provided that it can be defended intellectually Over the years topics which were controversial at the time have been

UNIT 6

Student Adviser : Hello My name's Dave Burns, and I'm here to tell you about the

welcoming party we are having for new students Unfortunately the information on your invitation is inaccurate We didn't have enough time to print new invitations, so I'll have

to ask you to make changes

To start with, this isn't a welcoming lunch : it's a dance party However the next line

is true The party will be held at Blackwell House Is everybody comfortable with that? The next line tells you when the party will be : Friday June 15th at 8 pm, but I have good news : the party will end at 11 pm As a result of this later end to the party the bus will go later too, so it should read "Free transport to the student hostel is available leaving Blackwell House at 11.30." And of course other students may attend, and all students must have their student ID card with them I hope you can come to the welcoming party It's a really good way to get to know other students and to learn what it's like to live in this city and to study here Just one final change : please let us know by Thursday if you can come
