RA YB URN Pregfidentif Message Members of the Savannah State College Family: Savannah State College has been a tradition for 90 Years. The academic year 1980-81 ushers in new beginnings for Savannah State College's students, staff, administration, and faculty. Sa- vannah State College must now begin to interpret its academic and service programs in terms of its relations to the urban com- munity of Savannah. Ways must be found to bring together a greater awareness be- tween SSC and the Coastal Empire area in order to effect a more meaningful educational experience for all students. ln this, my first year as president of SSC, I hope to lead our beloved Savannah State College to its full potential. Together we will move efficiently and with positive impact into the dec- adevahead. 'Come join with me and make new beginnings a positive reality for SSC and its urban constituency. it ' Y? , :T Thank You.
