SOUTHEASTERN COMMUNITY COLLEGE
FEBRUARY, 1977
Construction On
Campus Growing
Mr. Bob Stanley,
business manager of
Southeastern Community
College, has been busy
helping to establish the
process of a million dollar
plus construction project.
New projects are on the
way.
The building by the
technical building is a
multi-purpose building.
The building will be used
as a shop area for welding
and body work. Welding
will be moved to this new
building. The body shop
and sewing classes will be
moved on campus when
completion of the building
is made. This building will
give us additional
classroom space for
Monday, Wednesday, and
Friday. On these days
classes go on continuously
from 8:30 - 11:30; no
vacant classes are to be
found. Additional
vocational and technical
courses will be taught in
this building. The building
also will be used for
daytime meetings
brought to us from the
public. It will also provide
a place for workshops that
are offered.
The art area in the
auditorium has been too
small for its demands.
The building extension
will consist .of an art
studio and ceramics
laboratory.
The deadline for the
completion of both
buildings is August of
1977.
The new projects that
are to be planned are to
extend the campus
roadways, put up more
street lights, develop a
water loop on campus,
and also a parking lot
extension.

National Guard To Have
Helicopter Display At SCC
The North Carolina
National Guard sponsored
a static display of a UH-1
helicopter on the
Southeastern Community
College campus on
Monday, February 7,
1977. The purpose of this
display was for recruiting
and retention in the
Guard. There were
recruiters from the
WhitevDle unit and also
from Raleigh. CW2 Terry
Blackman and CW2 Carl
Reaves were on hand
along with a flight
engineer to answer any
questions about the air
craft, maintenance, or
support areas. Many
persons interested in
joining the National
Guard or those curious to
see the cockpit of a
“Huey” stopped by and
had a look during their
free time. The aircraft
was parked in front of the
main building for several
hours.
