Pitt Technical Institute fX, E K 1 QQ, Q P. o. Drawer 7007 Highway 11, South Greenville. North Carolina 27834 - r Telephone: 756-3130 FROM THE PRESIDENT: An institution such as Pitt Technical Institute functions successfully as the result of the combined efforts of many people. We are fortunate here to have a judicious and dedicated Board of Trustees, whose counsel has set the pace of our progress. We are endowed with a very talented group of staff and faculty members who have given unselfishly of their abilities, and, above all other factors, we possess an energetic student body, characterized by a willingness to achieve and a desire to inspect new avenues of learning. Pitt Tech has come a long way in its brief period of existence. It has brought to the area a greater understanding of the need for technical and vocational education, and it has fostered the realization of the dignity to be afforded the technician and craftsman in our complex society. Eastern North Carolina stands on the threshold of a new social and economic era. It is my firm conviction that as the region further progresses from a totally agrarian to an agri-industrial area, it will be our alumni who will be leading the way and assuming the prominent roles in this transfor- mation. Pitt Technical Institute has enjoyed a very successful and noteworthy beginning in meeting the needs of Pitt County and the surrounding area, yet its greatest challenges lie ahead. As our society changes, we must main- tain the flexibility necessary to change with it. As the needs and wants of our citizens make new demands upon us, we must possess the ingenuity and determination to meet these demands and satisfy these needs. As President of Pitt Technical Institute, speaking for the Board of Trustees, the staff and faculty, I pledge to all our citizens that this Institu- tion shall continually strive to remain the educational facility for and of the people, dedicated to the philosophy that excellence is the only measure of success and mediocrity is synonymous with failure.
