Harold McDaniels:
Preparing For The Future
Miss Music Of
Tlie Border Belt
Improved services will
be available for
Southeastern students
and faculty in the future
thanks to the office of
Research and Evaluation
•ind its director, Walter A.
McDaniels.
Since his arrival here in
September, Mr. Mc
Daniels has been very
busy evaluating the needs
of our growing college.
“Surveys are one of the
'tiajor responsibilities of
oiy office,” Mr. Mc
Daniels said. In the past
nionths McDaniels and
his staff have reviewed
the veterans financial aid
program, the Learning
Resources Center, and
several other college
services.
Mr. McDaniels comes
to us from Swannanoa,
N.C., where he worked
with the State Depart
ment of Corrections. He
has held other research
positions with the cities of
Baltimore and
Philadelphia. McDaniels
feels that his experience
as a teacher in the
Philadelphia school
system will help him in
understanding the
problems facing students.
One of the immediate
goals of his office is to
eliminate the long lines
during registration.
Another project is the
development of a “Data
Base” to make compiled
records and information,
more available. Much of
Mr. McDaniels’ job in
volves work with our
computer, and he feels
data processing will take
an increasingly larger
role in the school’s ad
ministration and
curricula.
Mr. McDaniels is
presently working toward
a doctorate from N.C.
State. He now holds a
bachelor of arts degree
from Cheyney State in
Pennsylvania and a
master’s from Lehigh.
Among his other
diversions, Harold has
formed a chess club and is
currently regarded as one
of the campus’ leading
chess hustlers.
The 1975 Miss Music of the
Border Belt Pageant was held
here in the S.C.C. auditorium
Saturday December 6. 1975. The
Miss Music title for 75-76 was
awarded to Miss Antoinette
Gibbs of Fair Bluff. Two of the
contestants, Carolyn Graham
and Arlene Evans, attend S.C.C.
In the pageant the girls
demonstrated their talents,
which in some instances were
amusing and in others showed
much originality. Also there was
streetwear competition,
swimsuit, and evening wear
competition. The girls were also
judged on their self - in
troductions, poise, and dress. All
the girls were lovely which
presented a difficult task for
judges. Julie Stocks, Martha
Young, Brenda Ebron, and
Lloyd Inman. Jr. were the
judges.
The theme was “From Now
Till Eternity” for which a poem
was written by an S.C.C. student
Miss Sue Graham. Miss Emily
Adams, an artist in residence at
S.C.C., provided the special
entertainment. Mr. Frank
Suggs, another student at S.C.C.,
was the Master of Ceremonies.

INTRAMURALS
"The key tosuccess inintramual sports at S.C.C. depends on the involvemait of students, forfeit of
time, and faculty participation,” stated Barry Nation, English instructor.
Nation, who has been involved intramurals this year, said there have been intramural sports
before, but the lack of participation has caused the attempts to be lacking in success.
Volleyball tournaments will be held during the winter quarter for any students desiring to com
pete.
/\ny students interested in competing the winter intramurals are asked to contact Barry Nation or
Bob Young.
