P age 106 This year, the Beacon Staff would like to dedicate the book to three men who helped make the College of The Albemarle what it is today. We hope this expresses our gratitude for their struggle to provide this area with a community college. Nathaniel Elton Aydlett - A consistently staunch supporter of College ofthe Albemarle from its earliest roots to the present, N. Elton Aydlett has a long history ofassociation with Nonh Carolina's community colleges. ln 1960, while serving as State Senator, he chaired the Community College Committee ofthe State Board ofHigher Education when College of The Albemarle was chartered. Twenty years later, Mr. Aydlett was appointed as a charter member of the newly-formed State Board of Community Colleges. This long-term, unending commitment to the community college concept is primary among the reasons for Mr. Aydlett's selection as a recipient ofthe College of The Albemarle Twenty-fifty Anniversary Award. A native of Currituck County, Mr. Aydlett earned his law degree from the University of North Carolina. He associated with several general law practices and, in 1928, was named Clerk ofthe Superior Court and Juvenile Judge for Pasquotank County, positions he held until 1946. Mr. Aydlett assisted in the development ofa number of planned communities and businesses, including Southern Shores, Southgate Mall, and Seventeen South Garment Company. In addition, he has served as a director of First Union National Bank since 1963, is a former trustee of East Carolina University, and was mayor of Elizabeth City from 1951 through 1955. Aside from his efforts toward the establishment of College of The Albemarle, Mr. Aydlett's accomplishments in the State Senate included the statewide expansion of UNC Television. ' A member of Blackwell Memorial Baptist Church, Mr. Aydlett was married to the late Pantha Houser Aydlett. They have one child, Mrs. Robert D. tPatriciaJ Aldridge, and two grandchildren, Robin A. Harris and Jeffrey A. Aldridge. Charles Marion Gordon - Chairman ofthe first board of trustees at College ofThe Albemarle, Charles M. Gordon was a driving force in the establishment ofthe college. While a director ofthe Elizabeth City Chamber of Commerce, Mr. Gordon chaired the chamber Education Committee from 1959 to 1960, when the idea ofa community college in Elizabeth City became a reality. He served as trustees' chairman until 1965. It is for his personal commitment and unending persistence toward the establishment of College of The Albemarle that Charles M. Gordon has been chosen as a recipient ofthe College of The Albermarle Twenty-fifth Anniversary Award. Born in Beaufort, North Carolina, Mr. Gordon attended Elizabeth City High School and High Point College. He served in the United States Navy during World War II on a South Pacific destroyer and, in 1960, was voted Man ofthe Year by the local chapter ofthe Veterans of Foreign Wars. ln 1947, he and his aunt, Mrs. Josie Thorson, established Gordon Sheet Metal, a company which continues to thrive in the business community. Mr. Gordon serves as chairman ofthe Board of Deacons of First Baptist Church and is married to Lucy Slaters Gordon. His children include a son, Charles F. M. Gordon, stepdaughters, Leland Jane and Lucy H. McGrath, and grandchildren, Kristin and William Charles Gordon. Vernon Grant James - The only charter member of the College of The Albermarle Board ofTrustees who continues to serve in that capacity, Vernon G. James is currently the vice chairman ofthe board. He has worked faithfully on behalf ofthe college since its inception, both locally and at the state level. A native of Pasquotank County, he has helped to assure adequate educational opponunities for the citizens ofthe Albemarle area. Because of his long association with the college and his support of education for the local citizenry, Vernon G. James has been selected as a recipient ofthe College of The Albemarle Twenty-fifth Anniversary Award. Mr. James, who attended Weeksville High School and North Carolina State University, is retired from his positions as president and manager of James Brothers, Inc., a family farm and produce supply business. ln 1945, he was elected by the people ofthe First District to the North Carolina House of Representatives and has served nine terms in that capacity. He chairs the House Agriculture Committee and serves as vice chairman for the commissions and, earlier this year, was the recipient ofthe Governor's Award from the North Carolina Agribusiness Council for Distinguished Service to Agribusiness. A life-long member of Salem Baptist Church, Mr. James is married to Thelma L. James. His children include John Thomas James and Vemon Grant James, J r., both deceased. 3 The First '19 V I iw ix X I 'lf Cullvgi 4 THEME ,is Sf.: ,f PEACE, LOVE, AND ROCK 'n ROLL 25 Years GB!

The members of the Student Senate represent the entire student body at C.O.A. and are elected by their peers. The Sophomore officers are elected during the Spring of their Freshman year at C .O.A. and Freshman officers are chosen the following Fall. Each club sends a representative to all Student Senate meetings to act as a liaison between the two organizations. The student Senate is responsible for booking all concerts and appearances by various performers and bands, ranging in style from blue-grass to pop 46 rock, as well as organizing all ofthe dances throughout the year. The Student Senate has a history of sponsoring many charity events and fundraisers, and this year it sponsored the raffle ofa truck, donated by Perry Toyota, for Skills Inc., an organization that teaches handicapped individuals to maximize their potential, and the Mail Call for servicemen overseas during the Christmas holidays, and blood drives during the school year, as well as Toys for Tots, which gives gifts to needy children. The Senate also sends delegates to 3 N4C-Conferences each year, where they have the opportunity to participate in leadership seminars and interact with the representatives from the other community colleges in North Carolina. Not only does the Student Senate sponsor events for other non-profit organizations, but it holds various events through the year for the entertainment ofthe faculty and students, such as the popular September Cookout!Faculty-Student Softball Game, and the December Talent-Show that showcased new and old talent alike. The Student Senate participates in community affairs such as entering a car in the Homecoming Parade at E.C.S.U., and sponsoring a float which won second place in the Christmas Parade. The Student Senate is a group of hard working individuals who are dedicated to the students, the school, and this community to make it a good place to live and learn. 76 he Student . , ,.., it .l .- .

Minorities in Unit The purpose ofthe Minorities in Unity Club is the protection of its members. By opening up avenues of communication, we can learn of each other's needs, we can share with one another our experiences here at College of the Albemarle, in order that others of us do not have to make the same mistakes and travel over the same rough places - that is- part of the protection. fllie Minorities in Unity Club provides a medium for opinions, thoughts, and suggestions from its members. It promotes equality, team work, and tranquility among the entire student population. Finally, it stressed the importance of education and the necessity of its members to continue their education in order to be productive members of society.

Vi'-QA !0s 9 '-. cl v-. 1 i-Q 1 C.O.A.'s drama club, the Satyrs, with Lucy Vaughn directing, are performing three plays this year. Work began in September on Pippin, a musical about the eldest son ofCharlemahne and his unsuccessful search for fulfillment in life. Countless hours ofhard work and preparation went into both two hour performances, and despite obstacles such as delayed scripts and flooding, the show went on to be a big success. Prior to this printing, preparation was already being made for a February production ofArthur Miller's Death ofa Salesman, as well as plans for a play with a mostly female cast, are in the making for late April or early May. To be a Satyr one need only to have been involved with a Satyr's play in some capacity whether on stage or behind the scenes. Because membership is not restricted to only C.O.A. students, many members ofthe Community have also been Satyrs. The history ofthe Satyrs is one of excellence in theatre. Its members won numerous drama awards. All in the past, the Satyrs, with the help of Lucy Vaughn, have given the public quality productions and have carried on a tradition of excellence that promises to prevail in future productions as well. l 4 SehoolPS1 l r I l r 5 t t .1 l , tk . 1 l ,il 5 grl 4 'V . , nv li l i l M, l 4 Best All Around - Chuck I-Iaskett, Ryan Cate flaw 1121 to Friendliest - Mark Khoury, Susan Knotts Most Athletic - Billy Ball, Jill Sims ur 1 435 Most Talented - Mike Ewell, Lynn Cale I I l Superlatives 7 fe cf 4 lg rw X X Q 5 ,W ,J 1 1 W7 , MH: . ,i . , . if A l U, , Q , Q ' bi y g ld zfifvyyylv ' A 'S V1 fa 'Z , V, , . 1 y Y j Y? ,I :ev f a ,,, A ,.
