By Whitney Edwards
Matthew Samuel Moore came to
Wayne Community College in
December 196? to teach in the
forestry program.
At the end of this winter
quarter Moore plans to retire
after 21 years of teaching.
Prior to fining the WCC
staff, Moore worked for a lumber
company tor 6 years and tor the
North Carolina Forestry Service
tor 3 years; he was a self-
employed forestry consultant tor
6 years.
Sam and his wife Irene have
two children, Matt and Laura,
and a granddaughter Christy.
When Sam is away from school,
he enjoys outdoor activities
like hunting, canoeing, and
birdwatching.
Curtis Shivar, Dean of
Curriculum Programs, said,
"Moore is a faithful, loyal, and
dedicated faculty member of
WCC." Shivar also remarked that
Moore has placed students and
the college first since his
first day of employment.
"When former students return
to WCC, one of the first
individuals they ask about is
Moore, and they are
complimentary of the efforts,
training, and guiding done by
him."
Moore had this advice for
students, faculty, and staff:
"Enjoy it (WCC) while you are
here because you will miss it
when you leave."
