CAROLINA JOURNAL March 8, 1967 Page 8 Dr. Colvard Is Installed First Chancellor (Continued from Page 1) Dr. Harold W. Tribble, Presi dent of Wake Forest College, pled ged to Dr. Colvard the "best encouragement and support” of the colleges and universities in North Carolina. Governor Dan K. Moore, repre sentative of the people of the state of North Carolina and the Board of Trustees, said, “1 believe that Chancellor Colvard Is a man who will meet and who will inspire others to meet the challenges of this era of rapid change.” “I look confidently toward the future of this institution under the leadership of Chancellor Colvard. There are challenges to be met and the attainment of each will bring greater rewards to thepeople of this State. A great institution is in the making-here in Charlotte, and today we recognize a man de dicated to that goal,” he conclud ed. Dr. Colvard made clear hispoint that this branch of the University wants to be rather than to seem to be. ”... we at Charlotte do not claim yet to have become a fully developed university. On the other hand, let me now make very clear that we intend to build here, and are daily striving to build here, not only a fully developed univer sity but as soon as possible a great university; and that in doing this we believe we reflect the spirit of the Latin motto adopted by the people of this state in 1893: Esse Quan Videri -- To Be Rather Than To Seem.” Dr. Colvard interruptedhispre- pared address to recognize a very special lady from his early school days — Mrs. Cleo Dixon Mabry, his sixth grade teacher. She re ceived a round of applause, and Dr. Colvard received laughter when he quietly requested, ”I ask that you not ask her or my college room-mate, who is also in the audience, too many questions.” In paying tribute to Dr. Bonnie Cone, who is largely responsible for the realization of this Char lotte campus of the University, Dr. Colvard said, “...I want to pay particular tribute to a lovely lady . . . whose energies and insights have played a major role in setting the stage for this splendid occasion today. Her un relenting and persuasive spirit which led to the building of Char lotte College persists. Her dedi cation makes our tasks pleasant and assures continuity in the growth and development of the in stitution. ” “Our unique opportunity re- quies that we plan carefully and work hard to mobilize the best ideas of our time as we organize each specifice phase of the Uni versity’s educationalprogram. . . “We do not have a detailed blue print setting forth all of our future development. Our hope is that we may operate more as an organism than as a robot. It is a truism in university life that greatness of institution is measured by the competence and the performance of its faculty. No task of the ad ministration is as important as that of mobilizing and providing effec tive working conditions for a strong facutly,” continued Dr. Colvard. A luncheon for 700 was held at the University Union following the installation ceremony. Ways And Means Committee To Hear Gripes & Complaints BY PAUL BOSWELL It looks as though the complain- ers and gripers on campus are about to get an audience. Those who have been vainly searching high and low for a sug gestion box must search no more; now they can suggest in person. The Student Legislature has created a new committee, labeled the Ways and Means Committee, which is designed exclusively to handle complaints from students or faculty. Open meetings will be held monthly in U-211. Complaints a- bout anything—teachers, school policy. Union policy, cost of ping- LITTLE MAN ON CAMPUS There’s nothing like an installation and a good cigar, Governor Moore seems to be thinking here last week. Birth Control Man Coming pong balls, etc.--will be received. Those grievances which can be answered by the committee will be resolved immediately; others will be investigated and answered at the next monthly gathering. The organization will give the student legislature an ear to the students’ sentiments. If action is feasible, the legislature may re flect interest in the student com plaints by legislating solutions. The initial meeting of this com mittee is scheduled lor today in U-211. Everyone is invited to attend and get their campus peeves into the suggestion box.
