Conclusion .............. -2 .. 3 10 30 56 80 108 126 In 1957, legislation was passed in the North Carolina General Assembly that enabled counties to establish their own two year institutions. Thus, the idea of a college in Elizabeth City was born, and, in November, 1960, the people of Pasquotank County voted their approval by a tive to two margin. The College of The Albemarle received its charter on December 16, 1960, the first in the state issued under the new act. The college began operations in the former Albemarle Hospital building that was originally constructed in 1914. The new Board of Trustees selected Dr. O. Robert Benson, Dean of men at Elon College, to serve as president, The first freshman class of 182 students entered the doors of the college in September, 1961. At that time the total teaching faculty consisted of five full-time instructors who offered courses in liberal arts, business, and college parallel curricula. Degrees were awarded to the first graduating class in Nlay, 1963. On July 1, 1963, a new legislative act became effective that authorized the establishment of comprehensive community colleges. On that same date, at the request of the Board of Trustees, College of The Albemarle became the hrst institution in the North Carolina Department of Community Colleges. It became the task of a new president, Dr. Robert I. Hislop, in the fall of 1963, to revise the original purposes of the college to the comprehensive concept. During Hislop's tenure, the first building program was completed with construction of a gymnasium-auditorium in 1964. Ulil ll Because of the expanded curricula to include two- year college parallel, technical, vocational, and adult education programs, the physical facilities of the college constantly required broadening, The nurses' residence, on property adjoining the site of the main structure, was converted into a library, Former Coast Guard repair shops on Riverside Avenue were used to house vocational programs. An old building, lent to the college by the First United Methodist Church, was renovated for use as an arts and crafts center. In July, 1966, Dr. B.A. Barringer, former dean of students became president. Barringe-r's administration was devoted to strengthening the college's programs and enhancing its capabilities as an openedoor institution. When Dr. S. Bruce Petteway was named president August 1, 1968, College of The Albemarle had reached a critical point in its growth and development. The number of fall curriculum students had increased over ive times that of its initial opening. Its service area extended to the citizens of seven Albemarle counties. In 1969, the Rockefellar Foundation provided a three-year grant for economic improvement through education, the hrst such grant to a two-year institution. Unemployed adults were provided intensive, short-term occupational courses. In 1970, a downtown building was leased to house these short-term programs, as well as a new program in cosmetology, drafting laboratories, and a new associate degree nursing program, The success of the program extended the Rockefellar grant an additional three years.

In an effort to have adequate space and facilities the Board of Trustees purchased 42 acres of land adjacent to the Albemarle Hospital on U.S. Highway 17 North. Building needs were designed and a master plan was outlined for developing and consolidating a new campus in three phases. On April 15, 1973, Phase I, a 50,000 square-foot occupational education building was dedicated. Phase II consisted of a larger building that would house the library, student center, bookstore, classrooms, laboratories, and administrative offices. Included in Phase III would be a gymnasium-auditorium. Because federal funding became unavailable for construction of Phase II, the trustees, in 1974, requested the inclusion of a S2 million bond referendum in the lVlay 7 primary election. The defeat of this bond issue temporarily crushed the hopes of consolidating the college on one campus. Dr. J. Parker Chesson, Jr., former professor and dean of instruction, was inaugurated as president in the fall of 1975. He accepted the challenge of finding another means to complete Phase II. Approximately two years later, a construction grant was approved by the Economic Development Administration. Matched with state, county, and institutional development funds, the federal funding allowed the college to proceed with Final plans to begin construction of a facility adjacent to the existing building on its new campus. Chesson stated at that time that It represents the largest and most crucial stage in consolidating all of the on- campus programs on one campus. In 1980 Phase II is almost completed. The transition from the old hospital building and nurses' residence on Riverside Avenue to the new facility on U.S. Highway 17 North will take place during the academic year 1980-81. The college's Board of Trustees is currently developing plans for sale and disposition of the Riverside Avenue property. The dream of the 70s has taken another step toward reality. Phase III will be the next step forward. 4 X Xu , ii Pitt A - 4 'i ' 1 2 T '?' 41 99 Q? I ln -,sc ..3YLf9.k,,-Q f ,+z':aS,s'-' ' ra . Q2 1.

A SA UTE T0 20 YEAIDS Q j 7 3 f 3 A tribute to College of The Albemarle was made October 7, 1980 in THE DAILY ADVANCE when, in a letter to the editor, Charles Nl. Gordan, one of the original planners and chairman of the hrst board of trustees, said that COA has been true to its goals. He stated that one pledge was repeatedly made-that in whatever direction the college moved, quality, above all else, would be the criteria for its growth , . . What they have done is what we had in mind. College of The Albemarle's prime asset is students and the Albemarle area. In twenty years the physical growth from one structure with 182 students to a nearly consolidated campus with 1,253 students is less than tantamount to the educational service rendered. College of The Albemarle is the past, the present, and the future. It is an instrument to discover and release the learning processes of the liberal arts, vocational, and technical curricula. It is an opportunity for the student to hnd himself, for the adult to broaden his knowledge and acquire new skills. The college can never be stagnant or complacent, it must be a reservoir that is always refilling and disbursing in a constant stream. lt must move forward, yet remain in touch with its people, sensitive and flexible to their needs, responding quickly to the requirements as they develop. This is College of The Albemarle. 6 The twentieth year anniversary will see almost all of the coIlege's U Q DYOQYBITIS OFI ONE CBITIDUS. on s 4 cell-,....

For the students now attending classes on both campuses, the move will be a relief, but for the students only at the Main Campus, it is a different story, Many of the students do not want to move. To them the Main Campus is more convenient, it is closer to town imany students walk to schooll. Others think the scenery is prettier at the Main Campus, with the water front and the trees everywhere. On the other side one must consider the full-time students at the Tech Center. How do they feel about everyone's moving to their campus? One girl replied that There won't be enough room for everyone, and parking will really be a pain. But all the students realize that the new facilities will make learning easier and attending one campus will aid the planning of activities and meetings so more students can participate in them. Random comments from students: What will they miss about the Main Campus? Annette Heath ..... Daydreaming out the window and seeing the sailboats go by. D'Andra Heald ..... Going by the morgue on Thursdays for Lab. Ronda Wagner .... The beautiful view of the river and the character about it. u Q-fi 1 1 an . k N ' J i f L, One of the things that will be sadly missed is the gym at the old campus. Plans are being made though for the building of a gymfauditorium combined Mrs. Snowden, a freshman at COA says that she will miss sitting at the picnic benches where she can study and get a suntan at the same time. Sarah Blanchard, Donna Suermann, and Lynn Barclift think that everyone going to one campus will make the college more unified. The studentffaculty game at the new campus gave these students from the old campus a chance to view the new facilities. Gail Forehand and Anya Creef have strong doubts that there will be enough parking space when the two campuses combine. Many students hate to say good-by to the scenery at the old campus where they are able to relax and talk between classes. Rosa Dough says that the move will be more convenient for people now attending both campuses. I 'X l,,,, l'9ii . .

I iii l 'X AMW ' rub, L i +-ff-U L LuAnn Jordan Financial Aid Secretary-Work Study-COA with Mr. Lloyd Armstrong My College Work Study job in the Financial Aid Otiice has been both a fulfilling and challenging part of my two years at COA, Lisa Bunch, Carolyn Forbes, and I are in charge of the College Work Study records in the office. Almost all Financial Aid applicants request work study for a limited number of positions, so that alone is quite a job! We also do the little things-typing memos and award letters, tiling the nearly two hundred lifty student folders for 1980-81, and helping students. l have had the opportunity to meet and work with people in departments of COA in addition to academics. I have found that it takes many qualified people doing their jobs well to keep a college running smoothly. Mr. Lloyd Armstrong, Director of Student Financial Aid, and Ms. Carolyn H. Hopkins, Loan Officer and Financial Aid Assistant have taught me the ropes and more importantly, they have been expert role models in dealing with people, They live by the Student Services motto: The students always come first. The money earned and new friendships made have given me a greater sense of independence. Best of all, working at something I enjoy with such fine people has let me be a part of COA and COA a better part of me, 16 i 1 511 fig - l25'f i ' Ai 1 I ,.c L Jerry Jernigan Drama Technician-Work Study-COA with Ms. Lucy Vaughan There is a good opportunity and advantage offered in the work study program here at COA. The department I am involved with is Drama-Fine Arts, under the direction of Ms. Lucy Vaughan. The education she offers me is unbelievable. While working with Ms. Vaughan I've had colorful experiences. I feel she is the one to teach me, and I'm eager to learn. Our relationship is quite a pleasant one. In this program I have realized that there are many without whose help the show would not go on. The hours are long, yet not too frequent, in the long run it's worth it all. Thanks to you, Ms. Lucy Vaughan. As a second year student, I realize the value of work study. With the 53.10 it pays per hour, somehow the end justifies the means. Being a mother of three and a housewife, I can assure you it takes a loving, giving, and understanding family to make the load light. I am blessed in many ways. I- l l i i I i -Q Working at l'The Lion Heart gift shop has given me a lot of practical business experience, I have learned to communicate with people, operate the cash register and calculator, keep inventory, balance out at the end of each day, make bank deposits, take framing orders, and keep the store clean and in proper running order. Since my boss is my mother and the store is our private business, I know quite a bit about what is involved in owning and operating a business, 1 have learned many important things that will help me to get the kind of job that I would like to have when I get out of college.

The hrst speech was given by Jami Nleiggs, Gloria Felton was next. lVlary Bray was last. The first election did not show the winner with a clear percentage therefore a run-off was needed between the candidates. The results of the run-off showed Jami lvleiggs to be the new vice president. Teresa Brooks Bebe Creekmore Kim Forbes an Cynthia Holden were the candidates running for secretary treasurer They gave their speeches October 8 in this order: Bebe Creekmore Cynthia Holden Kim Forbes and Teresa Brooks. A run-off was held and Teresa Brooks was elected as freshman secretary-treasurer, 1980 1980 was a year of change, The people were fed up with inflation and unemployment. So when Jimmy Carter ran for re-election, he was defeated by a landslide by Ronald Reagan lwho made a comeback after losing the Republican nomination in '76 to Gerald Fordl who received 489 electoral votes to Carter's 49. The changes were also apparent in Congress with the Republicans gaining control of the Senate for the tirst time in 26 years and House gains that erase the losses of the post watergate era.

Under the guidance of Mrs. Barbara Riccardo, the club plans creative activities to raise money for their scholarship. Each year, the Foreign Arts Club awards a one-year scholarship covering tuition and fees in memory of former foreign languages instructor, Alexandra Boada. One of their main fund raisers this year was the Octoberfest celebration. For fifty cents you could eat all the hot dogs you wanted and participate in a cake walk and various other games. Judges awarded Mike Timmermann a prize for best costume. The money raised by selling tickets and baked goods all went to the scholarship fund.

The Minorities in Unity Club is one of the newest clubs at COA. The club was started in the Winter Quarter 1979. The purpose of this club is to get more black students involved in the college activities. The founder, and now President of the club, Kwabena Amanlcwah, said he felt a need for more togetherness at the college. He said that anyone is in a minority because everyone is an individual. The aim of the club is to have people learn responsibility while they are still in school. They want to acquaint students with the working world so they will be better prepared when they get out of school. Several projects of the Minorities in Unity Club include a hot dog sale, a field trip, and a talk by Carolyn Davis from the Agricultural Extension Service. They have had four cars entered in ECSU's Homecoming Parade. In the future, they hope to have more talks and a Christmas dinner. The ofFicers of the club are President- Kwabena Amakwah, Vice-President-Charlotte White, SecretaryfMattie Dillard, Treasurer!Annette Skinner, Publicity OfficerfMarvin Sellers, Ser- geant-at-Arms-Hercules Etheridge. The advisors of the club are Mr. Rhees, Miss Williams, and Mr. Newby. There are now thirty- five members, and anyone is welcomed to join. PHI BETA LAMBDA Phi Beta Lambda is the business club here at COA. All business students are encouraged. to become members and participate in its activities. Phi Beta Lambda sponsors many activities, such as bake sales, hot dog sales, and party nights. They have fundraisers to help pay for a float in the Christmas parade, however, this year there was no float due to lack of time. They also sponsor a trip near the end of the year. The club has new advisors this year, Mrs. Walton and Mr. Anderson. They are doing a good job, but it takes time to get on the move and get the club going. The officers are Tracey Harris, President, Donna Suermann, Vice-President, Brenda Hudson, Secretary-Treasurer, Ken Castelloe, Sergeant-at-Arms, and Cindy Peoples, Student Senate Representative.

Academics S2 sf i' Learning Lab Many students are introduced to COA through the Learning Lab where they enroll to earn a GED high school diploma or an adult high school diploma. Some think this is an easy way to complete high school. However, they soon learn there are many hours of concentrated study with the student doing 9504 of the work on his own. This is not a classroom situation with a teacher to lecture. It is a 'ldo-it-yourself situation with the student using self-instructional materials. However there is always a coordinator on duty to direct and assist the students. The coordinators are lVlrs. Dorothy Aydlett and IVlrs. Martha Newbold.

ASSOCIATE DEGREE N U RSING We are proud to have as a part of our school the Nursing School. The Nursing School is like a school all its own. They have their own hours which are very difterent from regular class hours. Their classes last from two to three hours. The students are divided into two groups: first and second year students. This year the hrst year class has twenty-Five students, the second year class has twenty-nine students. The students have a very hard academic program which includes early hours and long trips. First year students work at the Albemarle Hospital and Winslow Nursing Home. This is wherethey get their hrst basic training under good supervision. In the second year, students travel to the Naval Hospital in Portsmouth, Virginia, for six months, Nlaryview Community lVlental Health Center for three months, Norfolk General Burn Unit, and to the Health Center in Elizabeth City. Students must take a bar exam before receiving their licenses. This exam is a state and national exam, and one must make a certain score on it to become a Registered Nurse. The bar exam is made up of five tests. The test covers Medical, Surgical, Obstetric, Pediatric, and Psychiatric Nursing, and in order to pass a student must record a minimum score of 350 on each part of the test. The average national score for the class is 500, and COA averaged 541 or better on all sections of the test last year. COA had the highest percentage of passing students of any school in the state of North Carolina. COA had 100'!.. In comparison, Duke only had 65 !. of its nursing students to pass. The students do have some activities. The First year students have a pinning ceremony at the end of the year for the second year students preparing to graduate. The second year students have a welcoming reception for the new students and help in the capping ceremony. The Nurses have a Blood Pressure Clinic at Southgate Nlall for the community. Last year 830 people had their blood pressure taken. The instructors for the Nursing Program are Wilma Harris, Chairman, Rose Williams, Peggy White, Renee Howard, IVlartha Payne, Mary Washington, Frances Jeffries, Connie Haberkern, and Glenda Crane, Secretary.

The mind is a marvelous and wonderful bit of human equipment, it seems to come cheap as all men are endowed with one at birth. Some come defective but even so, for the most part, can be programmed effectively given the proper attention. Those who come fortunately endowed with a healthy mind have the world at their feet, providing they have a desire to seek out that which will enlarge and expand with every endeavor. In today's world, our minds, as well as our bodies, are too often channeled by external forces to use these facilities as little as possible. Unfortunately, we consider these inventions 'lmarvelous , ua boon to mankind blindly submitting a part of ourselves to each contrivance. In so doing, mind andfor body suffer painlessly, happily deluded into considering them great aids to life and living. Quietly the erosion starts in the infant and continues throughout life skillfully crippling his ability to function at his highest potential and often even at mediocre potential. Rather than strain and stretch our brain power, we are more apt to take the way that gives least resistance, takes no real effort on our part. Often, it is labeled llwhat is as to ltwhat could have been . We are, as the poet states, 'lcaptains of our fate. Someday in the eternities when then is now and now is long since outdated, we shall look back from that modern time and consider the old days when the desire of the moment was so seemingly important. We shall consider the decisions we made and how they have influenced our eternal lives. What was so important then will perhaps bring a chuckle or a sigh as the case may be. We must project ourselves today into the tomorrow and carefully analyze our thoughts, our desires and our actions that they insure our place of tranquility in the modern, then with joy in our hearts and no regrets because the choice of now has determined the important then just as yesterday, last week, last month, and last year has determined how we feel about ourselves today. Tomorrow will come for us no matter what, whether in life as we know it this moment, or as we shall know it in another time. -Zorada Snowden '-af' AND TOIVIORROVV IS TODAY ,4 f 1f' T.. ,-' 'S'h A Y 4 thi 1' 'FL if 32 4' 'La- l-P.
