The students emerge from their long hibernation from the classrooms and hallways, and you begin to notice that there are really faces under all that winter attire. You will see them gather around the outside recreation facilities, basking in the long awaited warm sunshine, with the peoples attitudes seemingly changing to a more relaxed, friendly disposition. Summertime brings to life the thoughts of Myrtle Beach, mountain picnics, swimming, boating, and fishing that were planned during the long winter months.

Since 1967, Cleveland Tech has been offering Accounting, and Cleveland County has been benefitting from this needed program. An average of 90 people a year have been taking advantage of this curriculum. As a result, students are getting better paying jobs and employers are getting better qualified employees. Students in Accounting are taught to better understand our economy by studying and analyzing the roles of production and marketing. They learn the organizing, directing, coordinating, and controlling of management in business operations. Actual practice in recording, analyzing and summarizing accounting procedures, performing daily audits of a business ledger, and balancing the account at the end of the month, enables the students to learn bookkeeping procedures. Best of all, two year graduates earning an Associate in Applied Science degree have a better chance at employment in Accounting and related occupations.

But Lo? and behold? The beer is hot, what happened A quick check tells you that the refrigerator has quit Next step, telephone your local Aircondition and Refrigeration shop. This does not happen often. but when it does, you want a repairman im- mediately A weeks supply of frozen meats with a supply of refrigerated products can spoil In recent years the use of airconditioning and re- frigeration equipment has increasedtremendously Practically all new buildings for business or commercial use have all year comfort systems Many homes now have air-conditioning Realiz- ing these facts and seeing a need for air-condi- tioning and refrigeration technician and repair- men. Cleveland Tech. in l972, set up a curriculum designed to give the students practical knowledge that will enable them to become capable service- men in this industry. The principle objective has been to outline the required technical and related instruction to enable them to understand the basic principles involved in the construction. operation and maintenance of equipment The instructors at Cleveland Tech are highly pro- ficient in knowledge and experience to train the students in this area. Careers are waiting in employable areas of sales. maintenance, installa- tion, and in the growing Held of truck and trailer refrigeration, The demand is great for personnel to install and service the equipment and the stu- dents receive a diploma of graduation upon completion of the course, 4 C 5 ' Q 3 .

Somebody stole my engine, Oh! Well? The book should tell me where to find it. This course in Auto Mechanics was developed for students interested in learning everything about an automobile from an oil change to acomplete over- haul. Training in theory as well as manual skills in the electric system, power plant. power train. and hydraulic braking systems are included in this one year program. Emphasis is placed on the mechanical parts and operation of the various auto- mobile units. Trouble-shooting and servicing of the car itself are also stressed. Students are offered extra studies in Small Business Operations. Sche- matics, and Human Relations. Due to the impact the automobile has on the American family and the economy of the country, many job opportunities are available to trained personnel in this field. It takes a steady hand, power of concentration, and know-how to put an U 4 auto back in Erst class condition. This is taught at Cleveland Tech. I 1' vi 'lf 5' Y M., t N Y t....,, I In Cleveland County the business op- portunities are on the rise. With the increasing growth of our country, busi- ness has become more automated and competitive. At Cleveland Tech stu- dents prepare for employment in one of many occupations common to business. Training is aimed at preparing the stu- dent in many phases of administrative work that might be encountered in the average business. The Business Administration curricu- lum is designed to prepare the student for employment in one of many busi- ness occupations. Understanding the principles of our economy of produc- tion and marketing. organization and management: besides the knowledge of accounting, finance, business law, com- munication for business and human relations are considered the main objectives for this program. , CCTI Class. l'll tell YOU what you can do with this machine Fingers What page is he on now WHATH!!

The Continuing Education Department of CCTI provides general adult and community service classes to meet the needs of individuals beyond compulsory school age to gain personal satisfaction and knowledge through self advance- ment. These programs include opportunities for intellectual growth. the development of creative skills or talents. the learning of hobbies or leisure time activities and the opportunity of gaining civic and cultural awareness. lt is also the aim of the Department to be of service to area industry. business and public agencies to provide training and upgrading for employers. The extent of different programs and courses is based upon the interest shown by the communi- ty, availability of competent instructors and the limitations of available equipment, space and funds. Whenever possible classes are organized as community needs or interest are indicated Some classes that are in constant demand are offered on a continuing basis. Any others can be started at the request of individuals or organiza- tions when a sufficient number of prospective class members indicate an interest. Classes conducted by the Continuing Education Department are both vocational and academic in nature. The classes are noncurriculum. vary in length and conducted both day and nightg Con- tinuing Education, Adult Basic Education and Adult High School classes are held on the cam- pus of Cleveland Tech. Others are conducted throughout Cleveland County in local schools. community centers, churches. industries. busi- nesses or where ever a suitable meeting place can be arranged Any child I8 years or older is eligible for Registration. Certificates are awarded to stu- dents successfully completing course require- ments. The dean. directors and secretaries of the Continuing Education Department are avail- able during regular operating hours and are always ready to have suggestions for programs that would be bene- ficial tothe community.

The increasing development of many new electrical products and our needs for more electricity are providing a grow- ing need for qualified people to install and maintain our electrical network. Over one-half million people are em- ployed as construction electricians or maintenance elec- tricians. Over 10,000 additional tradesmen are needed each year to replace those leaving the industry, When this was brought to the attention of the Cleveland Tech au- thorities, what did they do about it? They set up a cur- riculum to provide a training program in the basic knowl- edge, fundamentals, and practices involved in the elec- trical trade with the latest equipment, shop instruction. and plenty of laboratory work. The students will be qual- ified to enter an electric trade where they can assist in the planning. layout, installation, checkout, and mainten- ance systems in residential, commercial, or industrial plants, They learn the fundamentals of the National Electric Code regulations for wiring installation. electrff cal circuits and the measurements of voltage current, and power on single or alternating circuits, They gain knowledge of motor control systems, industrial control systems, business operating procedures and all necessary haekground to have a successful career in this business. Cleveland Tech has outstanding. conscientious instruc- tors in this field who are willing to take time to insure that the students are trained properly. i l i ,.-v-.1 a steady hand, power of concentration, and a lot of nerve to work on a gadget like this. need a hammer and chisel. ' X Wx JW: .If 'E' nl' We got it fixed except one little streak. Think anyone will notice? Everyone has a TV or radio. What happens when they need repairs? A highly competent technician is needed that has the training and ability to restore it to working order by replacing a part of putting together what is broken. This serviceman may be required to install, maintain. or service ampitude moderated or frequency modulated home and auto radios, transistorized radios, monochrome and color television sets, inter-communication public address and paging systems, high fidelity and stereophonic amplifiers. record players, and tape players. With this in mind. Cleve- land Tech set up a curriculum that would provide a training program to supply the students with the basic knowledge and skills to install, maintain, and service these entertain- ment and educational facilities. The students are provided with the latest books and equipment and a large portion of their time is spent in the laboratory verifying electronic principles and developing servicing techniques. Their work will require them to meet the public in the repair shop and on service calls. A serviceman who establishes his own business will need to know how to maintain business records and inventory. This is offered as electives. When completing the curriculum at Cleveland Tech. the student has many job opportunities within this area or anywhere he chooses to go. ,X .1 3 :- -.e .1. :ly ' 4:52 ...J S eigwqn 7 Qw- l:5'rv' vi W gf, :w:4g,.Q:-mmm :J41::sf,mm:.eses3muQfeufmevyjbmyysm,:.:cuva4s4.'.r.zm.:.msu:oao::uaEx.uxii:ifumiihaZmi .

General Education might sound a little dull to some people but Cleveland Tech provides a very interesting program. Students schedule their own hours, work at their own pace. and set their own goals. They have a wide choice of courses ranging from Principles of Math and Journalism to Theatrical Performances, Environmental Studies, or even the Art of Self Defense. This gives them a chance to determine their ideas and directions in the years to come. GE started with off-campus classes because of the lack of facilities. They were limited to Eng- lish and History courses until 1975 when the program was revised to offer more courses. This is when the classes began on campus. GE is lucky to have eleven full time and ten part time highly qualified instructors with an average of 225 or more students each year. There are many good academic courses designed in the General Education program to stimulate public interest and give a person the desire to enroll in classes at CCTI. The Environmental Studies and Contemporary Issues classes. along with the Human Relations Council, clean-up the community. The students participate in the Spring in Shelby festivities: drama classes present plays on campus. at our local schools. and at Malcolm Brown Auditorium for civic groups. This curriculum is good for the students who are interested in obtaining a four year degree but would like to take this time to clarify their goals. All the courses in this program are requirements of and transferable to most colleges and universities. x Y' ' Y . 2 ill ' i li' :Jann:..,g.E,l::t.'2'i:5L:1 ai5?EEf:!:?,EE':f::i' r'f:iV5gF:i'ilel5din131Fl'!lW23ILLJ54.4132l1iibl3i5lZ'flZif'ftliiLtili'Ji-:lXi.'f...niilIll n u trta anage ent...t I d .

Webster delines lndustrial as a com- pany engaged in industrial production or service Management is defined as the col' lective body of those who manage or direct an enterprise. Industrial Management classes were started at Cleveland Tech in the Fall Quarter of I970. Due to the large numher of industries that Cleveland County' is fortunate to have. a real need existed in the community' for a course ofstudy that would train per- sonnel for Mid-Management positions A curriculum was initiated that would relate well to the everyday activities that the students encountered in their full time jobs in industryx Course contents are constantly up graded to keep ahreast of the latest tech- nical advances so the students are prepared at graduation to take their place in a supervisory position. The strong points ofthis curriculum are that the seven lull time faculty members are extremely well qualified. in experience and education. to pass on this knowledge to anyone readily' desiring to learn. The average numher ol' students for l975-76 was 300 and a survey' shovis that most have jobs in industry and use this training as a stepping stone to promotion into supervisory positions, This course has effected Cleveland County' in that the students over the years have provided a large numher of supervisors. managers and high level management positions Graduate students receive an Associate ln Applied Science Degree Management is a eries of Interruptions Interrupted Interruptions 12 , , , , if A' l . i If A 1' E' iw ' i 1 'tit' :' . 3 R he Og 0 l f' 0, lit i Q .Shri +5 1 . . s . ,U .J .QLXLQ rg 1 w 'W 4541: ff, av .-me . ,I 4' X -sl . s , -9 . .

This has been a great henelit for the husinesses and industries in Cleveland County and many ofthe surrounding areas. Many of our graduates are needed as far as Norfolk. Virginia. The advancements in the past few years in our industrial world have in- creased the great need for advancement in the training of accident pre- vention. The involvement ol' government and citizens groups makes sale- ty a vital concern. The Williams-Steiger Act of I970 demanded even further regulations for trained technicians in the field of accident preven- tion. Students are trained to recognize hazards. analyze problems. and re- commend solutions. They use the latest equipment for testing and de- monstrating.

Why teach welding at Cleve- land Tech? Welding is the ability to unite metallic parts by heating and allowing the metals to flow together. With today's high prices and inflation, it is sometimes less expensive and more logical to have a broken part fixed than it is to buy a new one. Welding classes were started at Cleveland Tech in the Fall Quarter of 1966 for it was as- certained that a real need existed in the local area for trained personnel in this profession. A course of study, using the latest equipment, was started that would teach the students to obtain jobs in industry, start their own busi- ness, or perform better in their present job. Instructors are well qual- ified in experience and education to import their knowledge to anyone who wishes to learn. In addition to his basic welding training, the student obtains knowledge of jigs, welding symbols, mathematics, basic metal- lurgy and blueprint reading. They can also choose elective courses in geom- etry, human relations, and small business operations. The reward of this curriculum is to give the student the skills for successful employment in the Welding field and metals industry. 1 l Ifthe mold is broken, CCTI can weld it back together L .,... --4 There is one thing that has always bothered the patients. What makes the nurse smile when she fills up a hypodermic needle? I i i l ll l l 5 Qs .. Every patient loves a good nurse and at Cleveland Tech, we train the very best. Due to the population expansion in North Carolina and the rapid advancement of medical technology, there is a great demand for well trained, cap- able personnel for health service positions. Realizing this need and finding a solution was brought to the attention of the city officials. It was decided that Gaston College affiliated with Cleveland Memorial Hospital could pro- vide the clinical resource for a practical nursing program. When Cleveland Tech was started, it took over the Gas- ton College responsibilities and continued the training program. Classes are held at Cleveland Tech while actual experience is obtained at the hopsital. The graduate is eligible to take and must pass the licen- sure Examination for Practical Nurses administered by the North Carolina State Board of Nursing to become a Licensed Practical Nurse. The LPN is qualified and pre- pared to function in hospitals of all types, nursing homes, dental offices, and public health facilities. Job require- ments are suitable personal characteristics, ability to i learn and understand nursing principles and a desire to serve and help others. Admission to this requires a com- A plete medical examination, five personal references, and the General Aptitude Test Battery at the Employment I Security Commission. Does Cleveland Tech train good -I nurses? You can bet it does! H.Nn l If you wish to learn to take pictures of how you look on the outside, register for the Photography course. If you desire to take pictures of how you look on the inside, the Radiologic Technology curriculum will be the course to register for, X-ray Technology has advanced so much in recent years that it is impossible for a doctor not to find some- thing wrong with you. The most difficult task for the doctor is to train patients to become sick while their x-rays are being taken. The Radiologic Technology curriculum was start- ed at Cleveland Tech to supply the community with Registered Technologists for the hospital and doctor offices. The students must become familiar with other courses of radiation as well as mastering the x-ray technique. This program pro- vides opportunity for training and knowledge in this science for the students so they can properly assist the physician. The technician assists in ex- amining for broken bones, tumors or other mal- functioning organs, They maintain equipment, keep records and mix solutions. After successful completion of two years of study the student is eligible to take The American Register Examina- tion which is recognized by the American Medical Association. Passing this examination qualilies the students to use the abbreviation, RT i Registered Technologist. If the x-ray is your choice, this is the course. ,411 tk H' ,Q-.1 43.-' ff-Mffrt'-R .1 A Q25 14, fx ,, 9' ..' -1,-.f a,-X .A 4 A . 1 I ,l l i i l ' i 1 -4 4 I I Vs i-'Z l ---f ii W .4 Q.- 2 1 1 XX y. ftxx. .- an , . l I i The General Office Technology Curric- ulum was designed in the fall of 1970 to help students who were not interested in taking shorthand and dictation but who wanted to learn the necessary secretari- al duties and skills needed for employ- ment in the business world. Automa- tion and increased production has creat- ed the need for people with more tech- nical skills and greater adaptability in a variety ofjobs. About forty students enroll in this cur- riculum each year. Students are ex- posed to on-the-job training in courses like typing, lettering, writing, and office machines. This gives them an op- portunity to encounter what actually takes place in the office. Many of these students get jobs in of- fices in and around Cleveland County as accounting clerks, bookkeepers, as- sistant office managers, and a variety of other clerical related jobs. Yes, students can get a degree by taking GOT. Grad- uating students receive an Associate Degree in Applied Science while ex- periencing the basics in the business world. ln this curriculum there are a variety of machines that the students are taught to operate The instructor can explain the basic rules of operation but to complete training on these machines it takes practice practice and more practice ' - r .-,' ... , iifilfi Diligent studies are essential for a good secretary. t : 'S X N ' 'A left Do you need a good, well trained sec- lf you do we've got what you want at Tech. businessmen don't really like to type, something to do while the phone is the best client is walking in the door the dictation machine is going beserk. Do ou know what these businessmen need? Well course, the answer is an executive secretary rom Cleveland Tech. We've got 'em and you 'em. They're well trained, good-looking they can get you away from that type- fhe Executive Secretary Science Curriculum Vlasses were started at Cleveland Tech to meet he needs of Cleveland County businesses and to give local residents a chance to present l r -su themselves to the business world. Courses in Executive Secretarial Science in- clude lntroduction to Business, Typewriting, Shorthand, Office Machines and various other required courses. The students may also choose from elective courses to further their knowledge of secretarial skills, 83 hours must be completed in required courses and 25 hours in elective courses. The Executive Secretary students learn more than the necessities of typing, dictation and other routine duties. they also learn to act on their own initiative, charm and development. So, the next time you see an executive sec- retary remember this: You can fool some of the people some of the time, but not an ex- ecutive secretary. Behind every doctor is a good Medical Secretary. Doc- tors must have a secretary they can rely on to be accurate in transcriptions of medical information. These graduates are specially trained to accept the responsibilities of the Medical profession. Medical secretaries graduate with skills in dictation, mathematics. accounting, busi- ness law, typing and personality development. With this program, with an average of sixty enroll- ments per year, Cleveland Tech hopes to fill the need for well-trained competent secretaries. This is an open field of employment in Cleveland County and surrounding areas. Students get personal satisfaction, inspiration, and a feeling of being needed. They can look forward to a re- warding and stimulating contribution to society. Cer- tainly this is a goal that Medical Secretaries can be proud of. if--K A A 0 HP- 1' ALLOY! 5? . . ........... ,...,........,. .... , ...,..i. , , 7 , .lg1.lW.,.l.,2,.m.,. ....!L'2!:J:1u .2!.!.,fY.'!.....Ufl'.Z?lf,!!f.

Sweet dreams. Early in the year of 1975, Tom Poston, Cleveland Techs Public Information Officer, came up with the idea of a Craft Festival. His first thoughts were to have a sophisticated flea market with the sole purpose of bringing people together, and giving artists, and craftsmen from surrounding counties a chance to display their work and make a few sales. The first festival was held in the spring of 1976. Between 65 and 70 artists and craftsmen set up displays and approx- imately 2,000 people came to brouse, buy, or both.

Although there was a good turnout at the fall festival, advisors felt that spring was a better time to have it. This would prevent conflicts with school festivals and church bazaars. Therefore, the festi- val will become an annual spring event. During the fall festival, Tech learned a lesson - at the next festival they will be sure to provide the Snack Bar with enough food to feed 2,000 peopleg 2,000 people and a lack of food doesn't mix!

Brown Auditorium provided the set- ting for Cleveland Tech's mid-year graduation ceremony. On December 17, 257 graduates in- cluding 26 Adult High School graduates, re- ceived diplomas or degrees. This was one of the largest groups ever to graduate from Tech. It marked a beginning for Radiologic Technology and an end for Clothing Construction. Clothing Construction was ended because of lack of interest and demand. Two people graduated with double majors: Cynthia Harrill - Accounting and Business Administra- tiong John Harry - Industrial Management and Industrial Safety. State Senator Helen Rhyne Marvin delivered the graduation address. She challenged the graduates to become actively involved in the public decision making process. We need to accent what we have in common on the local as well as the global level, and work close together to find common ground for understanding, she said. Bobby Poston felt that this was the smoothest graduation we've ever had.

Gigantic mountains topped with snow, Green forests nestled in the canyon below. Crystal clear lakes reflecting the sunlight, Capturing the shadow of the hills in sight. And the towering canyon walls, That echo the eagle's mating calls. Rivers like silver ribbons wind, Through the aspen and desert pines. Glaciers, formed a hundred years ago, Hold fast in the new fallen snow. Along the river side, dots of pink and blue, Thousands of tiny snow flowers peek through. Overhead in a bright blue sky, Light fluffy clouds floated by. Gazing over this vast expand, At Gods creative beauty, unspoiled by man. Lifting my face toward heaven in the sun's glow, I whispered a prayer to God in tones soft and low: Thank-you, God, for eyes to see All this loveliness surrounding me. For a body strong enough to walk upon this ground, For ears that enable me to hear the different sounds. Most of all, thank-you, God, for this day, That in my heart I can safely tuck away. Then when age has taken-its toll and sight goes dim for me, I'll see the beauties of this place in my Golden Memories. Sarah Hoyle .. .....- .., ...,,, - . .. , . Pr. ::..: .- - 1- vt- it . ,ls 5.

MAZE They are trapped there, In twisting alleyways, To sort themselves - To find another to share the struggle, Or to fight the panic alone. The enormity is overwhelming, And this battle has been turned Into a series of petty grievances against one another, In a futile attempt to cope, They have thrown themselves into it With all the fury of an idiot, Those who have grappled with the puzzle Turn back to cry the answer: But idiots do not heed warnings, And those nearest the end turn back in terror, Starting a wave of regression, A Destroying even that chosen one. But there is he who has always travelled alone, He is oblivious to the sweeping fear that engulfs the masses And it is this very detachment that protects him. He struggles on, Silently, Until that moment of exhausing desperation, When he looks ahead for the last time To see the light of the beginning.

Kennedy SAC SGA After many hours of work by various student leaders, The Student Advisory Committee CSACJ of 1976-77 was transformed into the Student Government Association CSGAJ. The new SGA was designed to promote better student government and unite the Student Body as a common bond. The Constitution and By Laws were rewritten to include committees to work for SGA and improve channels of communication with the Administration. The original representation of two students from each curriculum was not changed, but more emphasis was added to the duties of these representatives. Day SAC President David Adkins, Secretary Linda Watson, and representative Sylvia Knight worked on the restructuring task and added special Standing Committees to assist SGA. The Publicity Committee is responsible for preparing and releasing bulletins and posters announcing SGA functions and activities. Com- prised of the Presidents of all campus organizations, the Inter Club Committee coordinates any campus-wide projects. Budgeting is handled by the Finance Committee and all SGA sponsored functions are handled through the Activities Committee. Students' suggestions, grievances, and recommendations are channeled to the Administration through the Student Grievance Committee. One highlight of the year was passage of a bill by the General Assembly to allow the President of the SGA on our Board of Trustees. The President is considered an ex officio Qnon-votingy member but is entitled to the remaining privileges and responsibilities of the Board. The groundwork has been laid for an active, productive SGA for future years. The challenge remains in the hands of the Student Body.

SIIIM ia' 1' 7 g mazda .gn l . i I 100 I I - New The following was written about the New York Fashion Seminar attended in March I977 by Debbie Wyatt: Each of the sessions in New York had its good points and its bad points. Fashion Stylist Dorothy Sumin is at the top of my list. She was one fan- tastic lady and she seemed to have it all together. Mrs. Sumin brought out several things that I already knew, but they were things that you don't think about every day. It was encouraging to hear her say There's a need for people in fash- ion. She said that looking for your next job was a part of yourjob. I felt she was saying that you never really change jobs. Each one is a continua- tion of the one before. The slide presentation ended the session with the same enthusiasm that it began with. Next comes The Wiz. Everybody liked it. The music, cast, props and especially the costumes were great! The seats were great, too. They al- most put you on stage with the actors. John Kloss' designer showroom is number three. Dy Culver was a good speaker and he was well prepared. He handled the lingerie with pride and care. He pointed out that the design comes first then the price, otherwise you may ruin the design. I remember him saying that it is better to show like things or things that are coordinated because it keeps from confusing the buyer. The same seems to hold true for retail stores. too. The customer likes to see lots of merchandise, but she doesn't like confusion. David James was a typical New Yorker, it seemed. I didn't have my notebook, so I didn't take notes, but I remember some of the things he said. I liked the way he related his story to us. It was like he was talking with us instead of at us. One thing I remember was that dancers are easier to dress than actors, because they are not con- cerned with h0W they look if they can move. This was one of the most enjoyable sessions of all. Besides, he was cute with his white jeans. pink socks, and green tennis shoes. I remember being very depressed the day we visited the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Seeing the beautiful clothes in the Russian Costume Collection brightened my day. They all looked so big and heavy. I have always loved museums, but I think we could have spent the entire day and still not have seen it all. My next favorite thing was Vanities. In high school, I always liked Edward AIkee's absurd plays, and Vanities reminded me of him, There was a lot of deep meaning in the play and I love underlying themes. Since we got back, I've seen the girl that played Cathy in several commercials and now she is a nurse on As the World Turns. For some reason,I don't remember much about Greek Island Ltd. Boutique. I remember the prices on the merchandise and that everything was made in Greece. The shirt that I bought doesn't hold up very well. It doesn'thave any body at all, Mary Murphy rates number eight. She didn't talk kaudenough for New York. It was a strain to try to listen to her and she kept flying off the subject and talking about her husband. She did make several good points. though. She said Women are already accepted in the fashion lield, They do not have to fight for their jobs. One other thing she said gave me a new outlook on women in the job market. A woman cannot behave like a man or a woman. She must act like a business associate. This doesn't mean that a woman has to be for or against women's lib, but it still puts men and women on an equal level while on the job. The rest of the time they are free to be themselves. Fashion In York - At Fairchild Publications, I didn't think tl girl told us enough about what goes on to produ WWD. She told us about advertising and abc how many people each copy reaches. but l wou like to have learned a little about how they g stories. At the time, there was so much going on couIdn't think of questions. The trip through t newsroom was too pushed and she didn't expla enough. I would like to have met some oft writers and maybe talked with them about tht jobs. The only thing I liked about the Belk Buyi Office was when Kate McCullough told us abc the fashion show in Gastonia on September I Other than that, she didn't tell us much. Sher point out that the gap is closing in the time takes for fashion trends to reach the South. The Meekers were very nice people. Th seemed to really enjoy their work. The lirstd when Mr. Meeker told us what to do and what: to do, I knew I liked him. He didn't make I feel put down, but rather like he knew what would be going through trying to find our w around a big city. The hotel was fair, exceptl rooms were a little small for four girls. It wot have been great if we could have flown to N York. The bus was really a better idea thou because that way we had our own transportat in New York. We really should do somcth extra nice for Dr. Matthews. It takes a spel kind of man to drive 400 miles with thirty stude and then to drive around those crazy New Yi streets. New York City is too big and crowded fort I guess the people would be alright if you li' there and got to know them. I'm sure they ge lot of tourists and groups like us and I think tl take advantage of them. There were so many ple who couldn't speak English it was like bg in another country. I guess that's what madl seem so far away. People hardly ever smiled: everyone seemed irritable and short tempei We ligured out that it was because of all the nt pollution. I was so glad to get back to some pe and quiet that now I really appeciate moments I have to myself. But I guess if a I' Yorker visited here they would go crazy from silence. The only thing l'd try to change would bt leave the first and last days free if at all possi That is a long bus ride and if there were a co of hours to get showers before the Introduc Session, it would be more enjoyable. The re the day should be free to give the student chance to get used to the city. It was good to Ii- the main part of the week full to keep us fi getting bored enough to get homesick. The day should be left free to pack and rest up for long ride home. It was really a well planned, organized trip except for one major thing. S type of fashion show should have been inclul It was really a disappointment not to see real fashion. Even a tour ofthe garment dis would have been excellent. My favorite place to eat was the deli acros street from the hotel. Harry and Ben's. The ple in there were so friendly and they loved to us talk. I didn't even go to a fancy restaurant I wish I had. The little pizza stands were nice the food was good. Breakfast was the best me all and the most reasonably priced. We ate br fast down stairs in the hotel, but I don't reme the name. I loved the fresh flowers every and I wasn't leaving without some. The ones stayed pretty a long time after I got ho think I wasted my time thinking about ho sitting downstairs talking. It was a nice trip I'm glad I went. A special thanks to Sandra Daniels and to C land Tech for making all ofthis possible. New York '5ib.'f I TIGER PAW CLEVELAND COUNTY TECHNICAL INSTITUTE Vol. 3, No. 5 SHELBY, N. C. NOVEMBER, 1976 Students From Thailand Attend CCTI Recently, I had the pleasure of interviewing three Cleveland Tech students from Thailand. This interview consisted of a question and answer period that lasted for an hour. During this session, we covered such topics as social life, economics, education, culture, government, and religion. Hamad Hasamoh, Abdullatif Yamusenor and Waehusing Chehwae came to the United States in 1973 from Yala, South of Thailand. Speaking very little English, they attended the Latin American Institute in New York City, and now they speak English quite well. Not liking life in a large, congested city, the trio decided to move to Shelby where a friend had come to live. After arriv- ing here, they heard about Cleveland Tech and agreed that they would attend classes here. Since coming to CCTI, they report that Tech students and in- structors have been a great help to them. They also feel that people in the Cleveland County area are much friendlier than those in New York City. When asked what American foods they like best, they all smiled and agreed that beef was their favorite dish. In their country, steak, roast beef, and ham- burger are served, but they are not served as often in Thailand as in the United States. When questioned about what business concepts they would like to take back to Thailand, Hamad Hasamoh replied, the New York Stock Exchange. When I later asked what American custom they would like to see in n-11 -1 1 1 iivxv 1 1 -1 rv 1 .1 11 1 .

Anne Smevog will conduct a seminar to train students to serve as peer coun- selors. Only students who qualify financially are eligible to serve as counselors. The anticipated starting date is January, 1977. iq X- Q. Y .

But, said Petty, when the going gets tmgh, the tough get going, We knew what was going on and we knew where we stood. he added, Petty estimated that the selection d an ar- chitect and time needed to make plans, including tacuity and stall input, will mean about a year before ctnstrucuon can begin Bonds will be sold over a period d three to tour years and will go an the hooks as we need them Noting good support all over the county, Petty said the rsulta ol Tuesdays vote represented a needed vote ol confidence Cecil Gilliatt, chairman of the schools trustee hoard, said that approval ol the referendum was one ci the het things to ever happen to Cleveland County The ralerendirn, Gllliatt said, will enable Tech to become the type ol technical institute the county deserves and will upgrade the county as a whole, The board chairman indimted that the selection olan architect for the project will be the next board's next move and that everything else will goin order Gay R Champion executive secretary for the Cleveland County Board of Elections, said that voting appeared to he light throughout the cotmry yesterday Mrs Champron estimated that the coat of the special election would amount to approximately 88.000 or just over Sl per vote, The cnst d the November general elecucn last year, which saw an per cent voter turnout came toS13,9'.Z7.

Registration for the winter quarter was on January 3 and 4. On these days, Cleveland County had one of its worse snow storms in years. Some came to register, others did not make it. Some of the faculty that were assigned to register students were snowed in and did not - make it either. Registration ran into January 5. Finally, everyone got registered and classes started with lots of absentees. The next Monday, more snow. Then cold, cold weather but with the North Carolina Governor's energy policy of lowered thermostats in effect, instructors and students shivered through their classes and continued to learn. Although the winter was rough, Cleveland Tech came through again with flying colors and all goals accomplished. ,V A ,., Qi., 1 - - . r' rn- F 2 in in P.. N I f , ' N Watch your step!

A typical registration goes like this: Fill out Registration Receipt Form with all the courses you wish to take. Show it to the advisor.

Advisor signs receipt form. Sent to lab room. Get in line. Wait. Wait. Then, wait some more. Show first lady your form. Advisor didn't sign full name. Back to advisor. Signs full name. Back to lab line. Wait. Wait. Report to first station. Are you signing up for Fall Quarter? Yes, What is your serial number? lt is on the form. Let me see your card. Dig out billfold, hunt social security number. I see it on the form now. Next station. Are you a Veteran? Yes, What branch? Women's Army Corp. Next station. Do you have an ID card? Yes, May I see it. Back to billfold, hunt ID card. Don't look like you, but we will let it go. Check name, address and social security number on this IBM printout. Correct? Right! Sure? Yes, Are you male or female? Male, Directed to business office. Another line. Wait! Wait! Enter. Have you a car decal? No, I put it on my horse. That will be 540.00 in 51.00 bills. We can't take 520.00 because we heard some counterfeit 520.00 were in the Shelby area. How about a check. OK, if you get your advisor to OK it. Leave line. Go back to advisor. Wait. Give cashier the check. Stamps receipt and gives back a blurred second copy. Directed to bookstore. Wait in line. Approach win- dow. Sorry, the books you are supposed to get have not arrived yet. Leave bookstore. Go to parking lot. Sit down in car and disgustingly relax and wonder to yourself, Is it worth it?

Bobby helps Dr. Sherlin organize and assign advisors to work with Ed White in drawing up the master schedule. Then IBM cards are printed for each course offered. The advisors are responsible for getting the student files up to date and helping students register for the proper classes. IBM cards are issued to the students. These are sent to the computer and a master list is made. M 8L .I Finance Company does all of Tech's com- puter work, along with inventories and payrolls for other local industries. Instead of names, the com- puter uses Social Security numbers to punch roll sheets and individual grade sheets. After registration, Bobby's main job is checking and correcting all the errors. This takes a lot of time and paper work. Organizing registration is a joint effort of all the faculty and administration. I ' f'l f ,,,, .

Where did you go to school and, well, things of this nature? I went to Boiling Springs High School, which is now Crest High School. Then I also went down to the University of 'Experience'. This is also a wonderful teacher but the tuition runs a little high sometimes. I think that it would be good if every person could have some of this farm back- ground. My father had farming interests along with his medical practice and he always made it a point to have something for us to do on the farm to stay busy. I think as I look back on it, this, as much as anything else, was some- thing to keep us out of mischief. At any rate, he did always have something for us to do and I learned many things from the tenant farmers and from the blacksmith. On every spare minute we had we'd slip off to the blacksmith shop, which was within hollering distance of the house. How did you get into the welding business? I got my first welder when I was about twelve years old. I got my grandfather to make me a loan of S50 and bought a sec0ndhand'A.C. welding outfit. I started with this. We didn't have welding books available like we do today and the older people wouldn't tell you anything about it for fear of losing their jobs. Because jobs were hard to come by ' - Y Xx. 3 X. is U' ' , I AJ i' P -I' --I Q35 .. -4 mt 1 1 . f QNX V . ,i f' I1 ' , n i 57 -'s Finn 9 f . 1, x.

O., to begin our conversation take a few minutes and tell us a little something about yourself, where you were born, your parents. and anything of this nature that you feel free to tell us. J. O.: Well, I was born in Boiling Springs and I was the oldest son of a family of six. My father was a doctor and my mother was a nurse. My father would much rather I had gone into the field of medicine but when he realized that I wasn't interested in medicine. he worked just as hard to get me interested in the field that I chose. I preferred the mechanical field and the field of welding. I started welding in about l934. Welding was new to this area. The only welding that was being done was forge welding and today this is a lost art. The welding has grown from a novelty into an art and a science and it's more exciting to me today than it was the first time I ever saw it. because ,of the advancement that has been made in the field of welding. And the sky is the limit for a young person. I think this is one of the best things that they can get into. 5 mill! .1 , , Y v ' 1 o N A- Tom: J. O.. back then during the Depression. But, I started out learning just from experience, playing around on my own, and picking what little bit of information I could from it: then later Mr. Dewey Jones took a special interest in me and helped me out a lot with my welding. Then with thc war coming on the government started some training programs for mechanics and welders and so on. I worked for Duke Power for almost two and a half years in the field of maintenance, Then I went into service and also did some further study taking advantage of every opportunity to take some additional training. What about some of the little incidents that happened at Cleveland Tech when it was located on North Morgan Street? Well, we didn't have any equipment. I took my own personal torch over there. We used it along with the one little A.C. arc welder that we had at that time and we worked and got the welding shop fixed up and got our equipment and finally got it put in the last of the third quarter of the 66-67 school year. Well, we had a pretty good program going and we turned out some good welders. A lot of them try and find out it's too much sweat and work in it and if they decide that it's too rough for them, why. they'll chicken out. I kid Gene Eskridge a lot and tell him if they can't make it in Welding, they'll have to transfer up to Business Administration. At any rate, we then went out to the County Home dairy barn . . . the old milk barn. We operated there until we got into the new building. Then. when we got that new building we had a lot more equipment. We had more room and we could do a lot better job of teaching. However, I think that if a student is willing to put forth the effort, he can learn under most any circumstances. 1 l li V2 E l l l 1 1 l . l l 4 g,. l 4 1 1 l l I 1 1 l I L I if I H ts. 'QR Tom: J. O.. Tom: J. O.. 1 . How did we get rid of the skunks that time? Well, Lee Woods and Ray Gantt caught two of the baby skunks. But one baby skunk and the momma ran under the floor of the Snack Bar. We backed the school truck up to the building and got a piece of pipe and ran exhaust under the building. Then we poured a quart of oil into the carburetor and made a lot of smoke and we smoked them rascals out. I wish you could have seen Ray Gantt running after that skunk down across the field swinging at that skunk. He finally killed it. We weren't bothered any- more with skunks. Well, let's see. There's one other thing I've heard you tell about Tom Dudley. Oh! Tom Dudley! Well, you've got to know Dr. Tom Dudley to appreciate that. Anyway, I left Dr. Tom Dudley welding on a little micro-midget race car. When I left that afternoon he was doing fine with it. He had his goggles on and everything was line. The next morning I came in and there was a necktie on my desk with nothing but the part around the neck and the knot. I wondered what had happened. Nobody knew anything about it. Then, about 8:30 Tom came flying in and started telling me what happened. He said, 'The damndest thing happened to me yesterday after you leftl' I said, 'What in the world happened, Tom'. He said, 'Well, l was welding and I was just doing fine and then I smelled rags burning. I noticed that I began to get hot. I raised my goggles and my necktie was just blazing.' He said, 'I had to get out of that thing.' Well, that's the way it happened and I'd give anything in the world to have that on film. Tom: J. O.. Well, forjust a minute or so longer, J. O., what are some of the little incidents that happened at Cleve- land Tech that are rather unique to Cleveland Tech? I believe I rem- ember you telling one time about the snake incident and the 'possum in the basement, and some of those things. One of the things that I remember was that when we first moved out to the old County Home property, these buildings had been aban- doned for a number of years, and the place had grown up and it was in bad need of repair. Everybody just chipped in and cleaned up and fixed up. We tried to make the best of a bad situation. But we had a black secretary that worked down in student services, which was located in the basement at that time. One day this young lady came flying out of the basement just screaming. She said 'there's a black snake down there in that floor and there just ain't enough room down there for me and that snake both'. So they came and got me to go catch the snake. So I went down there and caught the snake and took it out. Then one time an opossum came out on the exposed heating pipe in the basement and looked down at Dr. Lykins. I wondered what he thought. Maybe that 'possum was wanting to enroll in sex education. I don't know. But anyway, he looked down at Dr. Lykins and I would just love to know what each one was thinking. But, we had rats and snakes and even had one family of skunks that moved into the Snack Bar one night. Hope- fully I can get all this together someday and put in in the form ol' a book about me and my experi- ences and try to make it interesting enough that somebody would like to read it. . ,--.-.. -.,...-asia I -,.. - 'va f .- You have just read about one of the first main additions and true believers in CCTI.

This Visiting Artist program is sponsored by the North Carolina Arts Council and the North Carolina De- partment of Community Colleges. North Carolina is the only state to have an activity ofthis kind, As visiting artist, Carl enjoys play- ing for many of the Civic clubs, or- ganizations and anyone who ap- preciates music. He is not only con- cerned with performances but is also involved with public relations, recog- nizing talent and mainly reaching out. Carl, born in Denton, North Caro- lina, developed an interest in the banjo at a very young age. By the age of thirteen he was performing on two radio shows. He was part of many different groups but soon learned the difficulties of trying to keep a group together. Carl soon decided he would either have -A H- -- --'- - V - -Y --11.1-2-1Q-e.L-:.., . ..:.-1-1 to quit music or make a living at it. .M',f1' 'waxy 95 li' Carl Hunt is an accomplished base, banjo and guitar player and plays a varied range of music from classical to bluegrass. He has professional ex- perience having played for Arthur Smith, A 8L R Talent Agency of Charlotte, and many military installa- tions in the Eastern states. ln addition to time spent in Nashville, Tennessee, Carl has traveled extensively: his travels have taken him from Dover, Delaware, to Key West, Florida, and from Louisiana to Montana. He has also studied Hotel-Motel Management at LaSalle University in Denton. Dr. Harry Mathews, Dean of Instructions, contacted Carl and wanted him to be Cleveland Tech's visiting artist. Carl enjoys his position and likes living in Shelby. He likes the people, loves feeling welcome and appreciates being free to be creative. Music is his love and for Carl a way of life. 137 0 CAP-L LLOVID 9? f 5 I iisliiuuaqa..uL.4:-......4:.L'z:i'.m.,Jfzu2711- A .vi -1---M tozff What we want is to see the child in pursuit of knowledge, and not knowledge in pursuit of the child.

It is my desire that you will increase your skills, ac- quire better jobs, reoeive higher wages, and develop your personal growth be- cause you choose to study at Cleveland Tech. Today, we are a fully accredited institution of higher learning in Cleveland County with a competent faculty and staff. Cleveland Tech began classes in September 1965, in limited spaces on North Morgan Street in Shelby. Our growth pattern necessitated our move to our permanent site at 137 South Post Road in 1969, giving good acoessability to all adult citizens of Cleveland County. Another favorable aspect of our development, as a member of the North' Carolina Department of Com- munity Colleges, has been our efficient, effective, and dedicated Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees has exercised good leadership in governing this institution with mature wisdom for the benefit of students. Considering the need of students, accredited spaces were constructed in 1974 by funds appropriated by the Cleveland County Commissioners tS500,000J and by the State tS568,452j, enhancing our development by provid- ing Phase I of a three-phase Master Plan. Phase II and Phase III, pro- jected for completion in the near future, will provide accredited space for the instructional program, learning resources center, bookstore, and faculty and administrative offices. We depend upon the support of students and the citizens of Cleveland County to insure our position as an established educational institution in this county. I am willing to listen to your suggestions for making your institution a greater institution of higher learning for the adult citizens of Cleveland County, and I thank you personally for your contributions to our endeavors. Sincerely, James B. Petty, President ...nh-2 4. . Dr. James B. Petty, president of CCTI, has always supported edu- cational opportunities for adult students in Cleveland County. His concern for and interest in the students is most evident by his open- door policy to the student body and his continuing desire to improve the programs and facilities of Tech. We the students wish to express our appreciation to the man who does the job for the student body of CCTI. i 140 r 4 -. 31.74.-.4 -415 'vnu ..... .,..--.-..,- A 'C Helm., l i l l l I+ v 5' THE - --.--::,g-- T WEL VE WH 0 DARED L-vw-wx 'NJ gf, vw-fa H Eugene LeGrand C G Poston APPOINTED BY THE CLEVELAND COUNTY COMMISSIONERS APPOINTED BY THE SCHOOL BOARDS OF CLEVELAND COUNTY APPOINTED BY THE GOVERNOR OF NORTH CAROLINA sal 1?

The HRD pro- gram is presently operating in 47 community colleges and technical institutes in the state. There are two components of the HRD program: ill Basic Education and C21 Human Resources Development, During the eight-week cycle, the student will be involved in activities, dis- cussions, and counseling which will help improve his self-concept, make him aware of group interactions, help him overcome ob- stacles to effective communication, and develop his job-seeking and job-holding skills. The student is also encouraged to set personal goals and list the steps to be taken to achieve them. There are five classes held each year. At Cleveland Tech the first was held October 1, 1976, January 3, 1977, March 7, 1977, and May 9, 1977. HRD is a cooperative effort of Cleveland County Technical Institute, the Department of Labor, the Employment Security Commission, and local industries. HRD begins . . . Debbie F ortenbury .
