PUBLISHED WEEKLY ATLANTIC CHRISTIAN COLLEGK SFPT. 2-4, NUMgE^I^ President George T. Murphy addresses a question from the audience 1?) body meeting held last Wednesday night. photo by Peter Chamness at the student Hemby tries administration Dr. James B, Hemby Jr., professor and chairman of the Department of English and Modern Languages, was sel ected as an American Council on Education (ACE) fellow in the 1979-80 ACE Fellows Program in Academic Administration. The program is designed to strengthen leadership in Amer ican higher education by iden tifying and by preparing faculty and staff for responsible pos itions in academic adminis tration. Thirty-five fellows, chosen by the presidents or chancellors of their institutions, are selected each year in a national competition. There were 140 nominations for the 1979-80 class. Typically, each ACE fellow, during the academic year, either at the home institution or on a host campus, is assigned to a college or university president and chief academic officer to participate in task-oriented ad ministrative activities. Fellows attend seminars on the problems of academic admini stration, read extensively in the field, produce an analytical re port. and engage in other activ ities to prepare them for admin istrative careers in higher educ ation. Dr. James B. Hemby ACE and participating instit utions are providing the fellows an opportunity to see if they would' like to go into adminis tration as a career without any penalty. They are guaranteed by their institutions that they can assume the same positions they held the year before. As a “home fellow” Hemby will be spending one-half of his time on the Atlantic Christian campus where he will be study ing all phases of the college’s administration including the executive branch - develop ment. public relations, student services, maintenance, athletics, budget, student loans, etc. He will be observing very closely how the budget is put together and presented. Other projects on the ACC campus are to study the feasi bility of graduate programs in certain disciplines; to invest igate the advantages, disad vantages and methodology of a merit system for promotion and pay raises for the entire campus and propose a method of broad ening and deepening the col lege’s Continuing Education Program. Time permitting, he will deal with the feasibility of establishing an honors program at the college. The remaining half of Heniby’s time will be spent working with the general ad ministration and programs. He is scheduled to attend three week-long out-of-state seminars sponsored by ACE. He is to do a formal paper for the council which will deal with his proposal concerning one of his projects - the merit system. Wfiai^'Student' / St-P2> I I ifnANCOLLEGE j ’muliinl i to. at^en^| Have you ever wondered why there is so much going on at A.C.C. and why so many people are involved'.’ It is a truly amazing feat, but students have again shown their great concern for the affairs of their college by the overwhelming attendance at the Student Body meeting. Wednesday night, Sept. 19, a of the grand total of ten people attending, nine were either on the Cabinet or a class repre sentative to the Senate. The tenth person was a Collegiate photographer. We hope that the IWX) that missed the meeting might at least care enough to read what happened. The rules of prixedure which are used by the SGA Senate were adopted as the format by which the meeting would be conducted. There was no old business. Under new business. President George Mur phy states that the candidates for Freshman class officers had chosen not to make their speech es at the Student Body meeting, but rather at a scheduled Fresh man Class meeting the follow ing evening. He then asked for anv other new business. At that point, a student question was raised about the rights of students at A.C. and how they might voice their opinions on issues or present concerns, such as longer visita tion or alcohol on campus. Murphy urged any interested the Senate meetings which are held at 5:45 on the 2nd and 4th Thursdays of each month in the I'rustee Kix)m of Hardy Alumni Hall, or to contact a class renre.scntative. Lee Morton, SGA Treasurer, went over a breakdown of the budget for the 1979-HO schixil year, including the amount of and percentage of the of the student fees which gi>es to SGA. This budget is presently being considered by the Senate and will be voted on at their next meeting. Mr. Murphy then announced the Homecoming and Freshman Class elections to be held Sept. 27 and 28, the final Homecom ing elections and possible run offs for Freshman Class officers to be held Oct. 4 and 5, a special Senate meeting called for Oct. 4 al 6;(X) p.m. for the State of the Assix'iation Address by Pres ident Murphy and the Homc- coming Dance in the gym Satur day, Oct. h. When a question was raised about the reason for having the dance in the gym, he explained that all other pos sibilities were bixiked. With no further business, the meeting was adjourned. Even with the small number of peo ple, hopefully something was accomplished and all those who should have been in the empty chairs will be motivated to become involved. Best holds services in Howard Chapel Sept. 16 marked the Sun day for the first service to be performed in Howard Chapel for the 1979-1980 school year. Reverend Jeffory Best, a sopho more at A.C. , officiated at the event. Best was ordained in October 1978 at the age of 18 making him the youngest ordained min ister in the Bear Creek Missionary Baptist Ass(x;iation. He was also AsstKiate Pastor of Best Grove Baptist Church in Goldsboro. Before coming to A.C., Best had taken seminary courses in religion which is his major. Presently, he is on the cheer- leading squad and has won a gold medal tor his performance.
