DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN—It was registration day in September. You had had a summertime in which to malce renewed resolves about your efforts toward excellence. You made a vow that only to the task of educating yourself would you bow. You crossed your heart and you sealed the resolve. Is it still there or will you have to break the smI and renew the once renewed dictates of your leanings? In the face of one ending and one beginning, do you remember? You must- AND WHEN—The rains were raining and the snows were snowing, all those years that our students had no other choice but to expose themselves to bad weather because of the roof that wasn't. Many a coed had to make impromptu appointments with hair dressers, many a cold was caught, many a student was late for work before there was shelter from the storm. But now the tune is different; we have a shelter to protect us while we wait for the bus. For this we are grateful and we can acknowledge the efforts of F. S. C.'s administration, seeking to do its best for its students in all areas of college existence. UPWARD BOUND The V oice By ROWENA PETERSON The Upward Bound Project, which was proposed by Fayette ville State College as of Decem ber 22, 1966, is designed for rising 11th and 12th graders. As its goals, Upward Bound has adopted the fol lowing four educational and in spirational objectives which it hopes to accomplish. 1. To “learn the student” how to learn more capably, if he is to realize his fullest intel lectual and productive capaci ties; to create a “mental set” that is amenable to education, school, and learning. 2. To broaden the students’ ex perimental background by ex posing them to cultural and intellectual experiences that have previously been un known or inaccessible to them. 3. To raise student levels of am bition and aspiration by en couraging the hope that high er education beckons the talented, the intellectually able, and is not necessarily a closed avenue to the poverty stricken. 4. To encourage and assist the student, through appropriate means of guidance and super vision, to strive toward a col lege education and its pro mise of a longer and more productive life and citizenship beyond college. In attempting to reach these goals, student participants will have access to all physical facili ties of the college. The Academic Policy Group, which composes the Upward Bound Project, is headed by Mr. Charles I. Brown, Associate Professor of Education and Director of Institu tional Research, Fayetteville State College. Other members includes a representative from almost every major, minor, and service supject- matter area on the campus, plus community agencies of the Fayet teville/Cumberland County area. The Purposes of this group en tails establishing the criteria for student selection to Upward Bound, assisting in the screening and selection of students, advising the staff on matters pertaining to curriculum and curricular proce dures, and coordinating Project Upward Bound with the regular programs of the college.

MEMBERSHIP BASE FOR TIE-IN WITH LARGER SCHOOL FSC is one of the members of the fourteen member Association of Eastern North Carolina Col leges, Inc. The association’s aim is to foster cooperation and coordi nation of the educational efforts of member institutions. It is on this basis that hope for FSC’s alliance with some larger institntion lies. It is on this basis also, that President Jones recent ly announced the possibility of such a collaboration with the Uni versity of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. While this possibility is not any where near confirmation or crys- talization, because of FSC’s mem bership, it remains a strong possi bility, and UNC has been the in stitution most often mentioned. When it happens, the collaborating institution will send members of its staff to teach at FSC, releasing F.S.C. instructors for further study at their present salaries. The AENCC is a non-profit org anization formed by several col leges in the eastern region of the state to foster cooperation and coordination of the educational ef- By ERNIE McNEIL forts of member institutions. It was conceived with the trend toward interinstitutional cooperation ip higher education as a means of as sisting individual institutions in more effective attainment of their goals. Through AENCC, fourteen colleges are working together to achieve excellence in higher edu cation. AENCC provides a means whereby needs of each college may be met through cooperative pro jects without loss of identity of autonomy. The organization received its co- porate charter on July 11, 1966. The first few months of its estab lishment were devoted to determ ining the areas of need and de veloping plans and priorities for the various areas of cooperation. AENCC programs and projects are being planned by committees composed of representatives from member colleges such as academic deans, business managers, librar ians, student personnel deans and other persons who hold vital posi tions in the member colleges. These committees develop the pro grams designed to meet the needs of the member colleges and the regions served. Examples of pro jects currently under consideration include coordinated efforts in the booking of artists, concerts, and lecturers, cooperation in faculty re cruitment, a centralized program of student loan collection, develop ment of a visiting scholars pro gram, and cooperative projects in the area of library affairs. These projects would provide eypanded and improved educational pro grams while achieving greater economy of scale and grading ex cessive duplication. Fayetteville State College needs assistance in all of these areas. AENCC is governed by a Board of Directors composed of the Presi dents of all member colleges. The By-Laws of the organization make provision for all other offices. Membership in the Association is open to those recognized insti tutions of higher education which believe the purposes and programs of AENCC will be of mutual bene fit. Membership is subject to ap proval by a two-thirds vote of the Board of Directors. WRITING OUTPUT INCREASE Mr. Charles Brown, Director of Institutional Research, reports that during the 1965-66 school year the administrative officers and facul ty members of the college were responsible for 47 publications (FSC Institutional Research, 2:2, pp. 20-24). He said that as a phen omenal as last year’s outpourings seemed to have been at the time, a new high for 1966-67 seems to be in the offering if the following 31 publications, publications in press, artistic productions and ex hibitions, and sundry outreach programs since September serve as a reliable predictor.

Dr. Walter T. Pace, advisor and mobilizer of the Fayetteville State College Fund Drive, introduced the speaker. Mayor Monroe Evans commenced his speech with the sane assertion that, in order for one to come to a solution to a problem, one must know what the problem is. He fur ther stated that in order to find the solution to education, one must develop his integrity—this is the solution to the problem of educa tion. Integrity includes a posses sion of a sense of humor, under standing surrounding conditions, honesty, not honor alone, and courage of convictions. Integrity is rare and it gives one strength, confidence and persistence. Mayor Evans surmised that “It is better to light one candle than to curse the darkness.” The scholarship fund drive presents a challenge. The results rest upon each indivi dual student’s effort to pursue the goal that is being sought. After Mayor Evans spoke. Dr. Rudolph Jones rendered a short but very effective speech concern ing the monetary need of Fayette ville State College. He conjectured that many large universities have need for millions of dollars and that Fayetteville State’s needs were not to be considered lightly. There is a great need for money at our college. He further stated that we do not need money for power purposes and that money at our college cannot buy us everything, but that we need money to boost our educational efforts. President Jones stated that charity begins at home; it is our responsibility to see that our school profits by our scho larship fund drive. I join with President Jones in urging you, “If you cannot do much, do a little, but for Heaven’s sake, do something!” THANK YOU The Dr. Chick Memorial Fund Committee would like to thank all of the contributors to its drive for dimes for the Central Orphan age at Oxford, North Carolina. The contributions totaled approximate ly $39.00 which we sent to be used at Christmas in the name of Dr. Chick. Next year’s Drive will begin in September so that all of you will have an opportunity to contribute to the Drive.
