A crowd of some 1.000 persons-made up of stu dents, faculty, staff, towns people. and civic leaders from the area and state-gathered to watch the festivities and have lunch at the site of the future student activities structure. The four persons who used gold-colored shovels to spade the ground where the two story, b3.100-square foot building w ill go w ere: William C ampbell of Row land, presi dent of the PSU Student Government Association; Dr. James B. Chavis. PSU vice chancellor for student affairs; Willie I homas of Laurinburg, vice chairman of the PSU Board of Trustees; and Allen Waters, assistant vice presi dent for finance for the UNC General Administration. The University Center, which is expected to be completed in lb months, was described in many glowing terms. Chancellor Paul Givens called it a "culmination of years of planning, a building centered on students." Allen Waters of the UNC General Administration said it is "a long-stated need," adding President William Friday of UNC "congratulates you for it." Waters added. "We hope you will invite us back lb months from now for the ribbon- cutting." Phil Kirk. Secretary of the N.C. Department of Human Resources, brought greetings front Gov. Martin on the happy occasion. Sen. David Parnell of Park ton. who headed the state legislative delegation which worked so hard lo obtain $3.9 million for the construction, said: "This is the beginning of some exciting times for PSU. It is very exciting breaking the ground and exciting as we watch this building grow. It is expected to be completed in 1986. in time for PSU to celebrate its lOOili anniversary." Parnell expressed appreciation to the other legislators from this area who helped on the project and asked them to stand: Reps. Sidney Locks. Lumberton; Dan DeVane, Raeford; and John (Pete) Hasty. Maxton. Willie Thomas, subbing for chairman Geneva Parnell of the PSU Board of Trustees from Parkton, explained Mrs. Parnell could not be present because of the illness of her mother. Then Thomas said, "This building will be the heart of the campus. It will indeed make its presence felt." Dr. Barney Pauze, chair man of the PSU Faculty Senate, said the University Center will be a place "where students and faculty can inter act." For the faculty partic ularly, the facility, with its faculty lounge, "will provide US a common meeting place to share our hopes and dreams for this University," stated Pauze. Pauze said the Center wou ld "serve as the social hub of the University, the center of the institution for faculty and students alike." William Campbell, speak ing for the student body, said the University Center "will provide a great number of advantages for students whi ch were not available before. It will be an oasis for faculty and students alike who will meet informally in it." Camp bell described the building as "a Significant addition to PSU." Dr. James B. Chavis was saluted by Chancellor Givens as being "very instrumental in the planning for the building and a person who made his presence felt in Kaleigh and Chapel Hill in persuading people there that this was a worth-wide pro ject." In his remarks, Chavis said: "We are celebrating the birth of a new building that will mean much to the faculty, stafl, students, and commun ity. This is a building which we have looked forward to a long time." Chavis also salu tued the work of the state legislative delegation from Robeson County. "1 can't remember a delegation from our area which has been more pro-Pembroke State Univer sity." he said in praise. "They have really cared for our well being." Chavis also (hanked R.D. McMillan, special assistant to President Friday. McMillan of Red Springs, who could not be present, was praised by Cha vis for "lobbying for us five days a -week every week during the General Assem bly's short session in 1984." Also extolled by Chavis was former Lt. Gov. Jimmy Green who Chavis said visited the PSU campus a number of times and met with staff members and students. "1 remember Greep's mee ting with students leaders in the old gym. He looked at them and said. 'You shall have your building.' " Chavis said he hopes Green and all of those in the audience "would be back in lb months to help us dedicate this magnificent new facility.' The ground-breaking was one qf the most widely covered events media-wise in PSU history. Television re porters were here from WRAL -TV in Raleigh. WTVD- TV in Durham. WECT-TV in Wil mington, and WKFT-TV in Favetteville plus photograph ers and reporters from the Raleigh News and Observer, Fayetteville Times and Ob server. the Robesonian in Lumberton and the Carolina Indian Voice and other publi cations.
