ls! . Rn Wine. BEAUFORT CENTER JOHN JOSEPH DUFFY Resident Director I2 In July, 1959, the University of South Caro- lina and Beaufort Higher Education Committee, which consists of Marvin H. Dukes, Chairmang T. Parker Jones, Vice Chairmang Mrs. Lee Bradburg, Secretaryg Howard P. Cooperg and Jerry Reeves, began operating the Beaufort Center. The first classes met in September in five rooms of historic Beaufort College Building. Since 1959 the student body has grown from seventy to one hundred thirty five, and the faculty has increased from six to fifteen. The Center offers a full two-year university program. The Center now occupies the entire ante-bel- lum college building. For the first time in more than a hundred years, this historic building is be- ing used for the purpose for which it was built. Extensive restoration of the building was begun this spring. When the 1964 Fall session opens the University students will attend an estheti- cally pleasing and functionally adequate build- ing.

A well-organized student council promotes special holiday dances and other events during the school year, and the successful sports program is en- thusiastically backed by students and faculty alike. The campus paper, planned, written and made up by the students and printed on the presses of the local daily newspaper, attracts stu- dents interested in that field. Other activities are offered to suit the tastes and talents of all. As one Aiken County Center student ex- presses it: lVe are proud to be a pa1't of such a fine institution, for here we have formed not only the basis for many lasting friendships but also we are receiving a solid foundation on which to build for the rest of our education and our lives. Aiken County Center students and their par- ents, alike, are grateful to the citizens of the county and the University officials who made the establishment of the center possible. A debt of gratitude is due Sen. Edward C. Cushman, J r. for his tremendous interest and efforts and to all other members of the county legislative delega- tion and to Mr. Francis A. Townsend, chairman of the county's higher education commission, and the other commissionmembers: Don D. Kennedy, Charles F. Kneece, Julian D. Ellett, Elden J ones, George Parks, Eugene Sawyer and Ray- mond VVarner. Sem i-Spiral Stairway Overlooking Back Campus. .55 .xe i . f -5.1

an economy price. To assure the maintenance of standards, all faculty members are chosen by department heads at the Columbia Campus. The University operates a complete day and evening session. In this way courses are available in the daytime to regular college age students and at night to military and adult students. Beau- fort, Colleton, Hampton, and Jasper Counties as well as the military bases in the area are rep- resented in the student body. The Center also attempts to serve the general educational needs of the area by furnishing facilities for extension courses in educational and non-academic courses, such as piloting, which are of general interest to adult students. The Center has continued to expand its activi- ties to meet the educational needs of the area. New courses have been added each school year. The two-year secretarial training course repre- sents the most recent addition. The Center has prospered and will continue to prosper because it meets a real need for higher educational op- portunity in one of South Carolina's most rapily developing regions.
