CAMPUS
CAPERS
With
Dianne Simpson
An Outstanding JCSU Teacher
In any phase of life there are
good things about objects,
situations or circumstances,
people and places that seem to
always stand out more than .
the rest.
So is it on the Johnson C. i
Smith University Campus
someone who stands out as a
most distinguished figure.
Like the sun of the solar
system she leaves her rays of
joy, hope and faith where ever
she goes. Although she is a
keeper of a busy household
being a wife and a mother of
three children, she finds the
time to be affiliated with all
sorts of organizations; com
munity, state and national;
social, civic and religious. And
yet on the campus of Johnson
C. Smith University she is
known as "the lady who has it
together.” This lady who is an
instructor of Communication
Skills. Literature, Englisji,
Speech and Drama is Mrs.
Henrietta Scarborough Rhe
drick.
Mrs. Knednck, born in Wil
mington, N.C. is a resident of
Charlotte. She was voted not
one, but two consecutive
years, 1976 and 1977, as Fe
male Teacher of the year at
JCSU, as well as Woman of the
Year in 1975.
Why is it that so many
Smithites feel that Mrs. Rhe
drick deserved the titles? Ac
cording to many students Mrs.
Rhedrick is a lady who knows
how to cope with students. She
makes students eager to learn
by the techniques she uses to
instruct. Her classes are of
the type that one would be
willing to miss a McDonald’s
McFeast or a Hungry Bull’s
steak in order to be on time.
Unlike many instructors in
colleges who have the tenden
cy to make the students feel as
a mere number, Mrs. Rhe
drick makes a great majority
of her students feel that they
can be legends of their own
times. ,

as a student for she listens, un
derstands and accepts sugges
tions and criticisms as a stu
dent, though she is never
forgotten as being the instruc
tor. No matter if a student is in
her Speech. English or Drama
classes, or a member of the
Ira Aldridge Drama Guild or
Alpha Psi Omega Dramatic
Honor Fraternity, he knows
that he is under the direction
of a person who cares about
him as an individual A stu
dent may not be the most
perfect speaker there is. nor
the greatest literary critique,
nor an actor like the old pro
himself, Shakespeare, but
Mrs Khedrick makes him feel
that he is pretty darn good.
Mrs Rhedrick feels that by
being an instructor she has an
obligation to her students She
feels that the future depends

on the kind of student that _
graduates from school.
“A good instructor,” accor
ding to Mrs. Rhedrick, “is one
who not only deals with the
subject matter that is to be
taught .but also with the total
living aspect of the indivi-'
dual."
From observing a list of the
many different activities that
Mrs. Rhedrick is and has been
involved, one would not quite
believe how she can even
possess any ounce of strength
to be as active and together as
she is on the JCSU campus.
Mrs. Rhedrick was a 1967
graduate of Johnson C. Smith
University where she received
her B.A. in English. Further
studies were held at Hampton
Institute (1967), University of
Georgia (1969), Wake Forest
Univ. (1972-74), and the Caro
lina School of Broadcasting
(1976).
