QforcEi For Ktiouledge
WINSTON-SALEM
When colleges receive big
dollars from business, all of
society benefits - not just
the school and its students.
A good example is the $1
million that Winston-Salem
State University has gotten
from R.J. Reynolds Indus
tries, Inc., to help
WSSU attrack top students,
stengthen its faculty
and bolster its curriculum.
Not only has Winston
Salem State's " national
stature improved, but
the students on R.J.
Reynolds scholarships are
planning careers that will
directly help humanity.
Within the current crop
of 16 WSSU seniors on
RJR scholarships, one
students - Paula Smith -plans
to set up a clinic fo
for abused and neglected
children after she gets her
master's degree in social
work. Another - Willis
Pickard wants to get
into housing management,
to improve conditions for
urban poor.
Two hope to enter
medicine. Mary Greene
is dedicated to attaining
an M.D. degree, to help
make a dent in the nation's
undeftupply of family
physicians, and Cynthia
Timmons has decided to be
come a registered nurse,
specializing in obstetrics and
gynecology.
Others want to pursue
such diverse fields as educa
tion and computer program
ming, while some are bent
on careers in business
because they share Tony
Baker's view that "corpora
tions' are responsible for the
nation's economy and well-
This type of concern for
service to their fellow man
and to society was
common thread of remarks
by the R.J. Reynolds scho
lars, obtained during a
recent informal survey.
They were interviewed
following photography in
from of the RJR World
Headquarters, for their
official WSSU yearbook
portraits.
Their feelings are best
summarized by Phillis
Hardison, a senior in inter
mediate education, who
said, "As seniors we are
naturally concerned with
getting good jobs and
finding our place in the
world....but I think that
most of us are also very
concerned about ,t finding
work that helps meet
people's needs and helps
solve widespread problems."
Ms Hardison says
she wants to teach fourth or
fifth graders, and that she
would emphasize "trying
to really reach the children,
so that they know someone
cares and so that they be
come good citizens as well
as good students."
Mary Greene feels she
can help society by becom
ing a family physician
because general
practitioners "are able to
work with all members of
the family to handle health
problems before they
become major."
"The excitement of
bringing new life into the
world," is what inspried
Cynthia Timmons to want
to become an RN specializing
in assisting with childbirth.
"An RN can make her
work really count here be
cause the first 48 hours of
a baby's life are the most
critical," says Ms. Timmons,
who has already helped de
liver two infants.
Along the same lines,
Paula Smith's realization
that "child abuse and
neglect is one of the
main causes of death among
children" leads her to her
goal of opening a child abuse
clinic.
Willis Pickard, who wants
to promote civic welfare by
imprpving housing ... condi
tions, has already begun
that work aSan" intern with'
the City of Winston-Salem
Housing Authority. During
this past year he lias
helped monitor and manage
the ' quality of life in
four large housing projects
in the city, containing
nearly 800 families.
Troy Baker, an account
ing honor students who
wants to become a CPA,
has volunteered precious
time away from studies to
work in student
government. His emphasis
is to help stengthen
Winston-Salem State's
financial health, to insure
that the school can offer
" students strong academic
and extra-curricular pro
grams. A good number of these
students remarked that they
would not have been in a
. position to attend college
and pursue thier civic
aims of they had not
been able to obtain R.J.
Reynolds scholarships. "
"I never could have l
afforded college without the
support from Reynolds
Industries," says Sheilia
Worthy, an economies'
honor student, who was
raised by her grandparents
"I am just thankful for the ,
opportunity this scholarship
has given me to pursue my
God-given talents."

poration, is the parent
company of R.J. Reynolds
