The entire newspaper staff wishes to express their hearty congratu lations to all new SGA members, and a grateful thanks to the out going officers who have made this year more enjoyable for all. By: Elaine Cote' SGA Article The term is now over for the 1984-85 SGA officers. We closed up the year with Spring Fling, May 9. The Super Grit Cowboy Band and Harry Deal and the Galaxies provided music. Everyone, as expected, enjoyed themselves and we hope the SGA hasn’t disappointed you. As 1 leave office, I want to thank you all for your cooperaion and participation in the events we scheduled. Everything we planned resulted in a big success because of you. I wish to especially thank Dr. Bob Thompson, Herman Norman, and the staff of Student Development. They were always there to provide help and advice whenever needed. I cannot express my appreciation to them enough. These people acted as advisors, counselors, but most of all they became our friends. I want to express my appreciation to the Business Office for all their hard work. They provided checks at the spur of a moment to bonds we had broked. They as well kept accurate accounts of your money. This made it easy to know how much we could spend and meet the wants of the students. I wish to congratulate the new 1984-85 officers. I’m positive they will do a great job of serving you the following year. They have new and bright ideas they are already working on. 1 wish them very much luck. Wilkes Community College has been the major turning point in my life. I want to thank each and every individual for the memories they have given me. I hope the SGA has done what’s been expected of us. We’ve worked hard and tried our very best. Good luck and God bless you all in the future. Bryce Shew 1984-85 SGA President Year In Review Well, it’s the end of another school year! A time for us to say goodbye to our special freinds; some just for a summer and others who will move on to four-year schools or graduate. I’m sure everyone is well aware of this and hate to be reminded of it, so I will not dwell on the obvious. Instead, 1 believe it is time to give credit where credit is due. Thank you to the main group at WCC: Dr. David Daniel, Mr. Tony Randall, Dr. Bob Thompson, Dr. Conrad Shaw, and the other administrative staff whose money and endless backing make the Cougar Cry possible. Thank you to the “ordinary” faculty who have never failed to provide myself and the staff with their valuable time and information in the various fields. Most of all, thank you, to the students of WCC. My friends, without you, there would be no reason for my job or the newspaper. You are a credit to WCC and have made it one of the best community colleges in the state. Also thanks to the typists, printers, etc., who put the newspaper together and to the many this list leaves out. Well, gang, now that credit has been given I have a few words of wisdom to share with you. This year is past and there is nothing we can do tochange the past. What we can do, however, is learn from our mistakes and treasure the wonderful memories of this year. We can lose friends to graduation, and though we don't want to admit it, to death. However, in a sense, they will never be gone in our fondest memories which we have forever. Remember this little point in the upcoming year: make each moment count in your life. You never know how precious something is until it’s gone. Farewell and have a great summer! Your editor, Bruce Groce Join the DPMA On Tuesday, May 7th at 1:00 p.m. the Data Processing Management Association had a luncheon where at they received their charter. Mr. Jim Payne, their sponsor announced this to the members. Throughout the year many speakers have presented material about their various jobs in the data processing field to the DPMA students of WCC. These speakers have allowed the students to understand the business world that they may be entering in the near future. This club is new here at WCC and needs support from the students in order to carry on. Jim Payne, the advisor and Sandra Lunsford, the 1984-85 club president both encourage upcoming sophomores to join this club and to also be a part of learning how the true data processing world operates. By: F’at Snow To My Staff by Bruce Groce Sure, you thought I had forgotten you, didn’t you? There was a simple reason why I did not Include you In my other editorial. I think with the job you havedone, that you deserved a special thank- you! You know, I took over this job suddenly and was suffering from shock trying to get the first paper out and “through thick and thin,” you were there, so here are a few thank-you’s. Thank you for your patience when I went slightly crazy at press time. Thank you for remembering that I was a rookie at my position. Thank you for meeting the deadlines. Thank you for accepting the responsibility of true reporters; I couldn’t have done it without you. Thank you. Dr. Hendrix and Dr. Thompson for refusing to use a firing squad on us and instead using infinite patience and help with the newspaper. Thank you, photographers of the Cougar Cry, who were the visual news of WCC. One more thanks, gang. Thank you, my staff for being my friends. That in itself is more than I could have asked for, but you gave me that and more. Most of you will be back, but for those who won’t. I’ll miss you and you’ll be a special part of me. You deserve the best. 1 believe in many different kinds of love and in my own way, I guess I love you as friends. Thank you all! Phi Beta Lambda During the week of March 28- 31, students of the Phi Beta Lambda attended the North Carolina Phi Beta Lambda Annual State Leadership Conference at the Wilmington Hilton in Wilmington, North Carolina.

Economics; Renee Whittington, 3rd place. Accounting I; and Melissa Kilby, 5th place, Ms. Future Business Executive.

The activities include the Spring Fling, where they will sponsor a dunking booth and a guessing jar; and an end of the year banquet for club members and business faculty. From 10:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on May 8th, a bloodmobile was held at Wilkes Community College in the student commons. Many students and people of the community participated in giving blood. These donations were grealy appreciated. Thanks for helping out! By: Pat Snow *NOTE: This article is from the diary of one of the actresses in ■■ The Messiah " and sho vvi the hard work which the Walker Center staff does. ^^Messiah Notes Rehearsals began the last of October, about six weeks prior to the performance. Grady Reagan, a music master in his own right, was rehearsal director for the chorus. Jerry Bangle, as usual, at the helm of the symphony orchestra. The extraordinary talent of Jane Harris on piano and subsequently harpselechord was apparent from the first chord of the vocalises. About 75 singers from throughout the community were deligent in their practice. Vocalist and instrumentals alike were united in a common love of music and a desire to sing praises to the Lord. Week after week the great work of Geord Frederic Handel was worked, smoothed and lovingly fashioned. Amateur and professional united in a labor of love. Comraderie was apparent from the first as “old timer” and newcomer blended their voices. At each rehearsal, significant progress was made. Then the solo parts w?re added and the icing was on the cake. Debo Lawrence - soprano; Elaine Mullholland - alto; Eric Jennings - tenor; Keith Smith - baritone; Grady Reagan - bass — all added a dimension of completeness. As the chorus built the foundation so the soloists added the spires. College and community cooperation gathered enough choir robes so the chorus could be attired alike. The crimson robes backing up the formal picture of black and white of the symphony, prepared the audience fora feast in both sight and sound. Fine Arts News The John A. Walker Center in its first working year has been a complete success. The Center has filled many needs and served many organizations. Over thirty-five 'thousand people have enjoyed using the Center’s facilities this year. Bud Mayes, Chairperson of Fine Arts would like to congratulate the students and faculty of Wilkes Community College and the surrounding communities for their support. A special thanks goes to the Fine Arts students who help support the Center with their hard work. Next year, the Center is planning a variety of activities. There will be something for everyone. Ray Charles is being scheduled along with Doc Watson and Kal Holbrook. A variety of theatrical performances is planned also. Parking is still a problem. I he parking lot will be paved in the next one-to-two years, when enough money is rai.sed. Mark Cheek
