Black Emphasis Week was observed through a program of campus activities in conjunction with National Black History Month. This is the 55th annual observance of the month set aside to recognize black culture, its important figures and influences in our society. Classie Jones, Black Emphasis Week coordinator, said the importance of Black Emphasis Week on the campus was “to help make people aware of black culture and to help our students become aware of the blacks who have contributed to our culture.” The activities began on Sunday with a dinner provided by area churches. Monday night the events moved to the Fine Arts Center where students participated in a portrayal of famous American blacks. Also featured was the presentation of academic awards to the two graduating seniors with the highest cumulative grade point. John Tatum, a forestry major from Banks, and Audrey Brown, an elementary education major from Lake Village, won the awards. Donald Ray Stewart from Monticello, received the music award. Tuesday featured a non-competitive fashion and talent show followed by the Athletic Awards Ceremony. George Shelton, Black Emphasis 73
