President Clyde Erwin
Behind the
Scene
A person you should want to
meet is President Clyde Er
win. Many students didn’t get
a chance to meet him last
year. President Erwin is a
man who cares for you and
your ideas. His office is open
to all the students at WCC. He
will listen to your grievances.
Johnny Wiggs states, “I know
for a fact that he listens,
because I have had the
pleasure of working with him
this summer.” He always has
enough time to talk to a
student. Wiggs said that WCC
is very lucky in having a
person of his caliber as
President of this college. Find
out for yourself what kind of
person Clyde Erwin really is.
Meet the man behind your
college.
Studying
Made
Easier
The Directed Studies Lab is
the area of the Learning
Resource Center geared
toward meeting the diver
sified educational needs of
individuals rather than
groups. It provides a study
situation in which anyone
eighteen years of age or older
may continue his education at
whatever level he needs and
desires. There is no traditional
classroom situation - no
teacher lecturing on a specific
topic; no specific hours of
attendance; no tardies, ab
sences, grades, or homework.
The Lab is kept as free as
possible of the pressures found
in the traditional classroom so
the student is comfortable
with studying and learning.
Students study by using
programmed instructional
materials which are designed
to facilitate learning in small
segments or sequences, and
which allow the student to
progress at his own rate. In
addition, the Lab has a fine
collection of audio-visual
materials to provide variety
.. well as increased
knowledge. At least one
coordinator is present at all
times of the day and evening
to give as much individualized
instruction as necessary at the
student’s request. Tests are
administered periodically by
the coordinator to ascertain
each student’s progress.
W.C.C. Student union is
located directly behind A
Building. This is a place where
students can break between
class, eat lunch, or play a
game if so desired. The Union
is open from 7:30 a.m. till 10
p.m. except for two hours;
3:30 till 5:30, we are closed for
cleaning purposes.
The Student Union board
room is located in the back of
the Union and may be used for
meeting purposes, with a
board room permit, which you
can get from Mrs. Lancaster
the Union director. Mrs.
Lancaster’s hours are from 8
a.m. till 5 p.m., so feel free to
ask her any questions you
might like to know.

One and
Only—Dean
W aller
In the regular course of
events, things occur that seem
impossible to overcome. At
least tliat is the way it seems
to several students at Wayne
Community College. Students
who are active in school
events and activities always
run into problems. Who do
they run to? The one and only
—Dean Waller.
It’s time that students and
faculty become aware of all
that Dean Waller does around
this campus.

Many people who have lived
around Gol^boro know for a
fact that it lacks leisure-time
activities for young people.
This year the students at
W.C.C. are trying to do
something about this-
situation. We have decided to
meet off campus and do things
together. There are several
places where students find
someone he or she knows.
Where? Frog & Ox (close to
Curb-In) is open nightly to
WCC students. It is a private
club that offers a friendly,
congenial atmosphere. Other
places include the Pizza Inn
across the street from the
college and the Boulevard
Lanes Bowlinji Alley on
Berkeley Blvd. Let’s get
together and have our own
party I See yen there! Johnny
