Three members of the Chowan College Alumni Association were named recipients of the coveted “Distinguished Alumni Award” at Commencement Exercises at the close of the college’s 115th year. The awards “presented with the authorization and upon the approval of the Board of Trustees on the thirty-first day of May, 1964,” stated, “people make the quality of every epoch by t h e depth of their devotion and the extent of altruistic services ren dered. The Chowan College Alum ni Association in recognition of multitudinous contributions t o Chowan College and benevolent causes involving religious and ci vic life of this era, hereby extols the name and life of revered members of the Chowan College Alumni Association.” In each case, naming the recipient, the awards read, “with admiration and appreciation these awards are presented to: Mrs. Lola Mae Freeman Penny, Raleigh, N. C.; Miss Una Lorraine White, Severn, N. C. and the Reverend Lowell F. Sodeman, Winston- Salem, N. C.” Mrs. Penny attended Chowan College before the turn of t h e century. While living in Raleigh, she has distinguished herself by outstanding leadership in the “Chowan College Club” in Raleigh, Mrs, Penny also has served as a trustee of the college. She is a native of Harrells- ville. The distinguished alumna has recently made funds avail able for the construction of a new infirmary on the college campus. The building will have approxi mately 6,000 square feet of floor space. However, this decision was made after and without the know ledge of the receipt of the Dis tinguished Alumni Award. Miss Una White attended Cho wan while it was serving as a school for girls. She has, for the last three years, served on the Board of Directors of the col lege’s Alumni Association and has made every effort to render sup port to the institution. She has also distinguished herself in var ious roles of service in civic work and church leadership. The Reverend Sodeman attend ed Chowan College in 1936-1937 and then attended Wake Forest College receiving his bachelor of science degree in 1939, he fur thered his education at Duke Uni versity and Southern Baptist The ological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky. Holding the rank of Captain, Sodeman served his denomina tion and country as a Chaplain in the U. S. Army during the Second World War. He has dis tinguished himself in civic work as a member of Rotary, Civitan and Kiwanis Clubs. This brings the recipients of Distinguished Alumni Awards at Chowan College to four. Mrs. Lois Vann Wynn of Murfreesboro received an award last year. The authorization for Distinguished Award is for a maximum of 3 awards each year. However, it is not imperative that three awards be given. Dr. Harris Teaching Writing Dr. Bernice Kelly Harris, well- known author and teacher of Seaboard, is teaching another class in Creative Writing at Cho wan College this fall. The Creative Writing Class is held on Tuesday evening 7:00 to 9:00 p. m. The non-credit course in Crea tive Writing is designed to give the students an opportunity to write about the “drama of every day” and about their experiences, the near and fcuniliar. Students who have participated in the class have received much ac claim for works produced as a result of this study under Dr. Harris. Last year a Chowan Col lege student. Miss Nancie Allen, wrote an original play, “The Fiend”. The play, written as a part of class work in the course, was selected to be presented in the original play division of the State Drama Festival sponsored by the Carolina Dramatic Assoc iation at Chapel Hill. Under the direction of Dr. Har ris, the class will produce as a class project a “Literary Sup plement” for THE CHOWANIAN, the college’s award winning news paper. ☆ ☆ ☆ The man who yields his right of way to a woman driver isn’t motivated nearly so much by chivalry as he is actuated by the first law of nature. ☆ ☆ ☆ Most insects have a well-deve loped nervous system, including a brain.
