Now That I Have Your Attention As the Executive Editor of this year’s COMPASS, I would like to welcome both new and returning students to ECSU. Though the summer was hot, I hope that you made the best of it whether you were employed, attending summer school, or just taking it easy. ha \v^ The COMPASS this year is being brought to you once more in hopes that you become abreast of the various things that are happening on and around our campus. Read it, enjoy it, and even comment on certain aspects of it that you so desire. It is our intention to bring to you information that will be beneficial to you in all phases and also highlights of students or faculty that have been outstanding in some way or another. In the upcoming issues of the COMPASS, look for my own personal column, en titled “The Good and the Bad.” I challenge those who read it to give feedback by writing letters and sending them to me concerning their viewpoints and opinions on the topics that will be discussed. This column should be a very interesting one and always remember the rights given to Editors in the first Amendment of the Con- stitution-FREEDOM OF THE PRESS. Once again, welcome and hats off for a prosperous year. From my pad, my pen, and my thoughts. Algie H. Mabry, Jr. Executive Editor COM PASS Robie Award Recipients Honored The same spirit engendered by Jackie Robinson as he helped blacks enter the major league baseball lives on today. Thanks to the efforts of the Jackie Robinson Foun dation and other caring groups, many blacks will now find new opportunities available to those who want to enter the business world. One of the 1983 recipients of the ‘Robie Awards for Humanitarianism and In dustry’ -presented by the Jackie Robinson Foundation- is Hicks B. Waldron, executive vice president of R.J. Reynolds Industries, Inc. Waldron, chairman of Heublein Inc., which merged with R.J. Reynolds Industries last October, was selected because of his ‘uniquely practical assistance to black economic development.’ This assistance has been ac complished primarily through hiring and promotional policies with Heublein, the extensive use of black banks and professional services as well as the aggressive recruitment of blacks as franchisees for Kentucky Fried Chicken stores. The second 1983 award winner was Sugar Ray Leonard, former world Boxing Coimcil Champion, named for his inspiration to young people as an athlete who promotes sport smanship, brotherhood, education, strong family ties and functions as a highly positive role model. Heublein, which also markets Smirnoff Vodka, Inglenook wines and A.I. Steak Sauce, launched the multi-million dollar minority business development program a year ago. Since that time, the ten-point program has been acclaimed as a success model for the food and beverage industries. The five-year program is channeling more than $180 million into the black com munity by Heublein. The sum will, in turn, generate more than $360 million in economic activity and an estimated 9,000 new jobs. Mrs. Rachel Robinson, chairperson of the Jackie Robinson Foundation, named for her late husband, the Brooklyn Dodger baseball player, chats here with winners of the organization’s annual ‘Robie Awards’ for humanitarianism and for industry. ‘Sugar’ Ray Leonard, the boxer turned businessman, received the humanitarianism award as a ‘highly positive role model’ and Hicks B. Waldron, executive vice president of R.J. Reynolds Industries received the industry award for his ‘uniquely practical assistance to black economic development’ while chairman of Heublein, Inc., which merged last October with R.J. Reynolds.
