Business Affairs . . The Green Stuff Money to a private institu- tion is of extreme importance to its very existence. Operata- ing without direct tax support, F-HC must generate income from tuition, fees, gifts, en- dowment earnings, and auxil- liary enterprises such as the Pruett Book Center. Working under the direction of Vice President Tom Davis, the Of- fice of Business Affairs man- ages and disperses these funds. ln addition to budget control and cash flow supervision, Da- vis oversees students ac- counts, non-academic person- nel, the food service, building and grounds, business and ac- counting offices, the book- store, mailroom, and con- struction. He says that he strives for the satisfaction of trying to see that everything works together for the good of F-HC. When faced with stress, the vice president concentrates on working through a job and lets stress take care of itself. ll Corinthi- ans 9:8 is a favorite scripture that helps him cope. Working with Davis in the Office of Business Affairs are Joe P. Hardin, controllerg Doris Maness, director of financial aid, and Joe Glisson, director of Pruett Book Center. Hardin, a 22 year veteran of the college, is the chief ac- counting officer. Maness works with students in secur- ing scholarships, grants, and loans. Glisson oversees the Bi- ble School Literature and Sup- ply House, seeking to secure new business and planning workshops for Bible school teachers. 52 Business Affairs Tom Davis, Vice President for Busi- ness Affairs.
