The banquet will feature as its
theme “The Hat You Wear.” The
BCAA medal will be given at the
banquet to the outstanding senior
whom the business department
faculty feels best upholds the club
ideals: scholarship, Christian
character, pleasing personality,
commendable deportment and
promise of future attainment.
The best student in finance will
be presented a one-year subscrip
tion to the Wall Street Journal
and a souvenir paperweight. The
winner’s name will be engraved
on a plaque. A reception at 9:00
in the faculty lounge of Memorial
Library will follow the banquet.
A business session will be held
at 4:30 in the library auditorium.
Preceding this will be an officers’
meeting at 3:30.
All Business Club members
who are completing their work in
June will meet with the alumni
for the business session. New of
ficers will be elected to replace
Garva Day of Salisbury, presi
dent; Ted Buckner of Richmond,
vice-president; and Miss Barbara
Pate of Kingsport, Tenn., secre
tary.
The Business Club is the only
one of the campus honor clubs
which has and promotes an alum
ni organization. Over the years
the BCAA has undertaken nu
merous projects to benefit the
entire college as well as the De
partment of Business Administra
tion. For example, the group
contributed the lectern and the
stage furniture for Moore Audi
torium when it was formally op
ened in 1961.
A scholarship program for an
outstanding and deserving mem
ber of the Business Club has been
one of the BCAA projects of re
cent years.
More than 100 persons are ex
pected to participate in the var
ious reunion activities today.
