' -' 'f ,L -, he spirit of Cleveland Community College has always been that of a small school with an everybody-knows-every- body-else down-home atmosphere. The campus is acces- sible, the staff friendly. This spirit received a huge boost, however, in July of last year when the North Carolina General Assembly ratified House Bill 52, converting Cleveland Technical College to a community college. The major change resulting from our newly attained community college status was the addition of a college transfer program which provides educational opportunities for students who are limited by financial resources, familial obligations, and other adult responsi- bilities. The offering of courses leading to the Associate of Arts and Associate of Science degrees began with the Fall quarter, 1987. The addition of a college transfer program to the college's numer- ous vocational and technical offerings means CCC is responding to the needs of our community and to the needs of a student popula- tion working toward personal growth and professional develop- ment. Except for a new sort of energy that came with a sense of accom- plishment and the prospect of new horizons, the atmosphere of the college remained unchanged. We're still a small school with a friendly staff, and everyone knows virtually everyone else. But it was that new energy we celebrated. Here's to renewed vitality, new purpose, and continued growth, as we all Catch the Spirit of Cleve- land Community College! 4 4' l 56? ..s r we A l .

Catch the Spirit Q-il he energy of CCC originates with its people-the stu- dents, faculty, and staff. Program offerings attract a wide variety of personalities, and with the addition of college transfer programs, yet another breed of stu- dent can meet his or her educational needs here at CCC. Teen- agers fresh from high school explore career possibilities, professionals in search of new inspiration take special interest courses, businesses and industry send their employees being groomed for promotion, the young and old alike return to com- plete high school requirementsg and Continuing Education classes attract anyone who has a hobby or wants to discover one! Those who comprise the staff at CCC are an important part of its spirit as well. The enthusiasm and expertise of our instruc- tors bring to each class a special challenge to consider new possibilities. Our instructors share of themselves and invite their students to grow in many directions. All these people contribute to the spirit of CCC-a spirit of achievement, growth, and success. s X3- gf , - ,- - , ...,.. . K V 5 1 lu I 'T ,I :phi if 'A 1 J , .

Sponsored by Gamma Beta Phi honor society, this prestigious award is selected by a pro- cess of student nominations, interviews by a GBP committee, with final voting by the CCC faculty. A business computer programming instructor, Renee joined the faculty full-time in 1983. What I like about teaching here, Renee ex- plains, is that the people who come out here really want to learn. It changes the way they feel about themselves. She continues, You always come across better when you are doing some- thing you Iove. My students laugh at me for getting so excited over stuff, but we have just scratched the surface, there is always some- thing new. Renee's hobbies include painting, growing roses, and reading mysteries. She and her hus- band and daughters live in the Camps Creek community. Carl Hopper presents the award. Renee's excitement about teaching is usually caught by her students. 40 ii if Q A F MM t,'?h x f I I ay -' N' 4. 5. 1 i J s' fl lk! I l 'C..I'.7 J K.. With her Queen Elizabeth roses.

Tagako Yamamoyto came to the U.S. from Japan in 1986 for two reasons: to learn to speak fluent English and study Computer Programming. But she's also learned a great deal about Ameri- can culture in general and Southern culture specifically. For exam- ple, Tagago quickly added ya'lI to her vo- cabulary and was initi- ated into our grits-and- redeye-gravy breakfast. Tagako chose both the South and Tech after meeting Jean Teague, an American mission- ary in Japan, and while -ffl-aj here made her home with Jean. Tagako plans to return to Japan in late 1987 and hopes to work for an inter- national company. She takes with her memories that will last 7354. ,, RJ i f tmtilllllel Xl. fi.3aj Roxanne Allison Cindy Angle Rachel Archie William Arey Charles Arrowood Jeannette Atkins Steve Atkins Tracy Atkins Cheryl Atkinson Bonnie Aycock Barbara Baker Jeff Baker Kevin Baker Diane Baldwin Felicia Banks Jane Banner Kathleen Barnett Velma Barrett Carolyn Barringer John Barrow Marilyn Bartee Mark Baucom Tommy Baxter Mark Beam John Beam Ethel Beaty Glenda Belk Kenneth Benton Jody Bess Kathy Biggerstaff 47 Jackie Bingham Travis Bingham David Black Ricky Black Todd Black Sharon Blackburn Christopher Blain Teresa Blake Eric Blanton Jill Blanton Kathy Blanton Mary Blanton Sandra Blanton Sherri Blanton Steve Blanton Steve M.
