STATUE OF
HAMILTON McMlLLAN
RECOMMENDED T '
COMMITTEE
The committee selected
by Ch?rslsr PhI Gtvaas to
recommend the most appro
priete way of honoring the
memory of HamEtea McMi
lan, one of the founders of
Pembroke State University,
met recently and came up
with a suggestion which re
ceived unanimous committee
support.
The idea as voiced initially
by Cllftea Oxendlne, PSU
professor e mint us, was to
erect a statue of McMillan
somewhere between Sampson
Hall and the Oxendine Scien
ce Building. It would be the
first statue on campus.
"The committee said it
would be something for peo
ple to see. A statue will be
around longer than any build
ing," said Adeiph Dial, PSU
professor of American Indian
Studies who is chairing the
committee.
Along with Dial and Oxen
dine, other members of the
committee present when the
suggestion was made were:
Dr. Dalten Brtxaka, PSU direc
tor of institutional research;
Jack Sharpe, former editor of
the Robe soman; KJ). Me Mi
lan, special assistant to
President Wffiam Friday of
the University of North Carol
ina General Administration;
and Law Bartan, Indian his
torian of Pembroke.
The recommendation by the
committee requires approval
by the PSU Board of Trustees
before it is activated.
Hamlton McMillan (1837
18%) was a Red Springs man
who was a representative in
^h^^tat^egislature^He
sponsored tad the state legis
lature passed "an act to
establish a normal school in
Robeson County." This first
building, a two story structure
on a one-acre site, opened its
doors in 1887 and from it
emerged Pembroke State Un
iversity.
* Dial commented: "Once
the Indian people had the
idea, Hamilton McMillan was
in a position in the legislature
to get things moving." Others
who Dial said contributed
mightily to the cause were
WJ.. Mean, Preston Lock
Jams Dial.
Dial added: "If the Indian
people had had no one like
Hamilton McMillan to go to,
there would be no Pembroke
State University today. He
carried the ball."
' This emphasis on honoring
M:Millan will also be a part of
hdian Heritage Week which
begins at Pembroke State
Uiiversity beginning Mon
<hy, Sept. 20. '

In addressing the first
meeting of the PSU faculty
i Monday. Chancellor Paul
Ovens mentioned some pos
able projections for the future
They included: (1) developing
computer camps; (2) provid
ing more courses id the
evenings; (3) bridging the gap
between high school students
to take the SAT (Scholastic
Aptitude Test); (4) providing
icredit in "escrow" for high

"We can work with the local

diss room and job situations
whereby students can work
half of die time and go to work
half of the time; and (6)
developing more active and
