A Message from the President. . . ' The People of Chowan A college is made up of many different people. One of the great strengths of Chowan College reposes in the people who serve the college. The varied people of Chowan work closely together to help the students realize their potential and reach their goals. Many of our faculty and staff and maintenance and custodial personnel have worked at Chowan for 10, 15, 20 or more years. They love their work and helping students. They are a special, dedicated group. During your time at Chowan, you have benefitted from the care and concern of the people of Chowan, many of whom you have not met or in some cases even seen. These include faculty and staff, trustees and advisors, alumni, friends, and supporters. They are making a people (student) centered college. As you have grown and matured mentally, physically, and spiritually, you have brought joy and happiness to those who have served you. As you have shared your dreams with them, you have become a part of their hves, and they of yours. As students, and later as alumni, you, too, have an important role to play. When you leave, remember those students who will replace you. Say a good word about your alma mater. Support it with your gifts. Keep in touch through your letters and visits at Homecoming and Spring Festival and other times. Together, the future is bright as we, the people of Chowan, continue to help make Chowan a great college and creative place for young men and women to study, worship, and play. Bruce E. Whitaker President

Colorful balloons, football games, assemblies in Helms Center, chatting with friends on campus between classes, are things which made our year at Chowan a delightful one and a time we will remember as we move onward.
