Don stops to say hello during one of the park dinners. Shirley Collins washes dishes in the Student Center. Man Shall Not Live By Bread Alone The cafeteria is supervised by Mr. Don Faubert. Pioneer Food Service not only serves the students ol Lee but also the Church of God School of Theology students as well. Don takes extra steps to please the students by organi ing and serving them on special occasions, having a great desire to do the best he can to make students happy. He feels that God has led him to Lee to be an instrument for Him through the application ol Christian love and service. Don has tried to offer special dinners every now and then, to splurge and make things a little more tasty. He had Saturday steak night and a couple of times meals were served out in the Alumni Park, sort of like Homecoming Dinner on the grounds style. Shirley Collins supervises the snack shop. The snack shop has a social ministry in that it provides a place for students and faculty to relax and associate with each other. Shirley and her co-workers try to keep the students full of burgers while the cash register Fills up. Of course, the whole operation takes the help of several students to stay fully operational. In the cafeteria, work study students keep the line moving, keep the salad and sandwich bar full, and keep the dishwasher running. On Saturday and Sunday nights, students like Mike and Tena Causey run the snack shop all by themselves. Besides giving them a little extra money toward their school bills, working for the food service gives students a chance to contribute to the overall mission of the school by helping to provide an opportunity for students to meet one another.

Delbert Rickman works the saw in the carpentry shop. maintenance. After being at Lee for twenty-seven years, he feels that his department has a minis- try in making life easier for stu- dents. This new department specializes in maintenance of the interior of buildings, making the plumbing hold up and seeing that the walls don ' t fall down. Mr. Maurice Bauer is supervi- sor of the electrical and mechan- ical department. He has been a part of the Lee family for ten years. The electrical and mechan- ical department focuses on main- tenance of all facilities on the Lee College campus — keeping enough lightbulbs, fuses, and spare parts for air conditioners around to keep the place running. Pres- ently they are working on a com- puter system for the school that will be connected underground, and they also are trying to teach student workers to do jobs of this nature. Mr. Roy Sherlin is the supervi- sor of exterior maintenance. His responsibility lies in upkeep of the grounds. That means mow- ing the lawns, planting trees, cut- ting the hedges, and so on. Mr. Roy Sherlin sharpens his mower blades. Sherlin decided to come to Lee College because of spiritual di- rection, leaving a better paying job to come. He likes the spiritu- al atmosphere of Lee. Whenever someone needs a new table, new post office boxes, or a crate built for carrying books, Mr. Delbert Rickman and his forces down at the carpentry shop are contacted. Lest anyone doubt the value of his occupation, Mr. Rickman can always point out that carpentry was Jesus ' first line of work. Arthur Pressley is always working. Maurice Bauer takes time to glance. 20 MAINTENANCE FOOD SERVICE i.

Mrs. Hitte stops to adjust the merchandise in the campus store Mrs. Nora Hitte has been running the campus store for as long as most students can remember. It ' s her job to keep enough pens, paper, pencils, folders, notebooks, notecards, erasers, typewriter ribbons, scissors, glue, con- struction paper, tape, and that ' s just for starters. She also runs a mini-market with deodorant, toothpaste, statio- nery, greeting cards, candy bars, film and official Lee College T-shirts. She realizes how much better it is for students to be able to pick up the stuff they need right there on the campus instead of having to drive all over town to find things at twelve separate stores. Grace Golden and her staff keep the mail flowing in and out of the post office. Each day thousands of pieces of mail come in and have to be sorted into about 1200 different boxes before 10:30 in the morning. She and Mrs. Painter sell stamps and weigh packages and try to Mrs. Golden is handing out stamps at the post office counter. keep everybody in contact with the folks back home. The thing that always amazes people is how that Mrs. Golden can name any post office box number from memory while most students can ' t remember their combination one day to the next. Good Morning, Lee College is a phrase Betty Baldree says hundreds of times every day; somehow it always sounds sincere. With over a hundred and fifty different phones hooked into one switchboard, the workload is staggering. Still, she manages to keep track of five or six Betty Baldree leads a busy switchboard. phone calls at once, keeping a notepad full of messages for those who aren ' t in and another catalog full of long distance phone calls. Working the switchboard is Betty Baldree ' s own specific calling and she enjoys doing her job immensely. Seeing What Develops Rev. Jerry Howell serves the college as Director of Development. As an important member of the adminis- trative council, Rev. Howell helps to get new projects planned, funded and completed for Lee College.
