College plans to
build arts center
by Lisa Macaulay
Clarion Reporter
Brevard College is looking hopefully
toward 1992 as being the completion
year for a new Performing Arts Center.
Construction is planned to begin in
January of 1991.
Donald Scarborough, director of
development, says, "The center will be
25.000 square feet with an 1,100 seal
auditorium capable of adustable seating
for smaller events. Also there will be a
large stage that offers adequate fly and
wing space [for props and backstage
activity. In addition to the auditorium
there will be offices, and conference and
storage rooms."
This facility will be owned and
operated by Brevard College. Robert P.
Ingle, Chairman of the Board of Ingles
Markets, has announced his donation of
500.000 for the center and is engaging
in a private campaign to raise a million
dollars.
"The new Art Center will be located
on the campus of Brevard, where the old
softball field is now,” Scarborough
says, referring to the space between the
Sims Art Building and Pizza Hut.
Softball games will then be held at the
new baseball field that is to occupy the
Christmas tree field.
Brevard is looking to build the new
Arts Center because Dunham
Auditorium is not large enough to hold
the entire student body. Also,
Scarborough says, "No indoor
performing arts facility with a seating
capacity in excess of 385 exists in the
area of North Carolina stretching from
Hendersonville south and west to the
Georgia and Tennessee borders."
President Greer
goes back to school
President Billy Greer has been
invited to be a Visiting Scholar this
summer at Princeton University in
Princeton, N.J. The program in July
will allow the president to do some
reading, writing and studying in his
field (theology and Christian ethics), as
well as interacting with faculty there and
taking part in their theological institute.
Dr. Greer says,"It's a great honor to
be chosen for this. It's difficult for me
to take a sabbatical, so I'm looking
forward to have an intensive month to
catch up on some reading I need to, and
perhaps writing an article or two I’ve
had on my mind.... and if I'm going to
expect faculty to get their batteries
recharged, I need to be recharging mine."
Dr. Greer, the eighth president of the
College, has been at BC for five years.
