APPROVAL OF COUNSELING PROGRAM, FUNDING
OF NURSING PROGRAM HIGHLIGHT OF 1991
In reflecting t?*ck in 1991 u a New Year arrives and
with it a whole new set of opportunities and challenges,
Pembroke Stale can point to the establishment of a new
Master of Aits in School Counseling program and the
funding of a joing Bachelor of Science in Nursing progrm
program as two of its top '91 achievements.
The M.A. in School Counseling was approved by the
UNC Board of Governors in November, and in December
PSU and Fayetteville State University received a
three-year grant of 9368,578 from the Kate B. Reynolds
Health Care Trust to being a B.S. in Nursing program.
The counseling program begins Jan. 6, and the nursing
program will start next fall.
Other highlights of 1991 include the donation of
3125,000 from President C.D. Spangler Jr. to PSU to be
used as it sees fit Of that amount $115,000 came from
the Sprangier Foundation and $10,000 from Spangler
himself. Chancellor Joseph Oxendine of PSU responded:
"We are delighted to receive this gift President Spangler
has made a great contribution to the UNC system, not
only with his energy and abilities but also with his
money."
In a year of tight budgetary constraints and in which no
UNC system employee received a pay raise, PSU
personnel worked industriously to obtain grants. The
UNC Board of Governors also approved two important
scholarship programs for PSU: (1) 3320,000 for incentive
scholarships and (2) 3132,600 to help needy students.
In PSlTs fund raising from private sources, it has rasied
$1,020,120 in the past 16 months and has gone over the $1
million mark for the first time in its endowment with
$1,219, 080.
The Chanelior's Club, whose members donate $1,000 a
year to PSU for 10 years, increased its numbers
dramatically to far over 100 members. The last figure for
1991 was 114, meaning 71 had joined in the 2Vt years of
Chancellor Oxendine's administration.
Another big step for PSU in 1991 was joining the NCAA
Division II Peach Bealt Conference effective in July 1992.
Teams from the Carolines and George are in this new
athletic conference, meaning PSU will be receiving even
greater exposure.
Month by month, there are some of the remembrances
of 1991:
JANUARY-Berteen Prine, secretary or administrative
assistant to every PSU president or chancellor since
September 1943, announced that she would retire at the
