Dr. 1. Clyde Driggers, ABAC's President, Spearheads Phenomenal Growth Cf College The personality and endeavors of Dr. 1. Clyde Driggers, President of Abraham Baldwin College, exemplifies the phrase the friendly college, a term long associated with the institution located in the heart of Southcentral Georgia. Dr. Driggers, with his cheerful greeting and beaming smile for everyone with whom he has contact, is a complete optimist . . . about the growth and expansion of the college, the benefits gained here by its students, the contributions of its faculty and staff, and its unique ability to hold the loyalties of its graduates. Having been named the head of the college in 1964, Dr. Driggers has spearheaded and witnessed the phenomenal growth of ABAC's student body. He has secured the addition of many new facilities and aca- demic programs and has brought about such improve- ments on campus as landscape planning, paving and central heating. Both Dr. and Mrs. Driggers are active contributors to the civic and religious life of the Tifton Community. Mrs. Driggers is particularly involved with the activity of local garden clubs and the Baldwin Women's Club in which she initiated the organization of the Baldwin Newcomers Club. Dr. Driggers is a steward of the First Methodist Church and a past president of the Tifton Rotary Club. Operation: Surge - the Systematic Utilization of Resources for Growth and Efficiency - is a program formulated and directed by Dr. Driggers for the benefit of Tift County and its people. Dr. and Mrs. Driggers have four children - a son in medical school, a daughter who is the mother of the Drigger's granddaughter, a son enrolled as a freshman at the University of Texas, and a son at Tift County High School. As a result of Dr. Drigger's tireless efforts on ABAC's behalf, men such as State Senator Ford Spinks and University System Chancellor George Simpson are interested in ABAC.
