His kindly consideration of all and his ability to weigh both sides of any question are a combination of young spirit and mature wisdom. omwov ' d The 1947 issue of the Summit commemorates the Twen- tieth Anniversary of Asheville-Biltmore College. This represents two decades of struggle, but due to the efforts of the teachers and administrators who served the college faithfully and well this institution has filled its place in the educational system of Buncombe County. We believe that the college has a definite place in this community, and that with the aid of its many friends it will grow into an institution of which Asheville may well be proud. We hope that this issue of the Summit will be the begin- ning of a long line of yearbooks which will serve as encour- agement and inspiration to all those who will strive for the growth and betterment of our beloved Alma Mater. OUR C 1 1 [ U J . J! During the flush days of the late Twenties, boom times when many short-lived ventures had their day, a group of far-seeing, civic-mind- ed people under the guiding genius of A. C. Reynolds, former Superintendent of Buncombe County Schools, organized and founded Bun- combe County junior College, fn May, 1927, this institution was established as a part of the public school system, and during the first few years of its existence charged no tuition; but conditions attending the financial crisis of 1930 necessitated a reorganization, changing the name to Biltmore Junior College and placing the institution on a tuition basis. In 1934 the College was placed under the control of a board of trustees, representing the The first location of Bill mure College in Bilt- more, 1927-1934. business, professional, and educational interests of Asheville and Buncombe County. In March of the same year the school was chartered under the name of Biltmore College. In August, 1936, the chartered name was changed to Asheville-Biltmore College and con- trol was placed in the Asheville City School Board. The City . dministration began pro- viding some financial support, a policy bolster- ed in 1939 by legislation authorizing both the county and city to furnish financial aid. In 1945 the College Charter was amended, providing for changes in the board of trustees and relieving the City School Board of the responsibility of direct control. These changes in organization have been ac- companied by changes in location. From 1927 to 1934 the college functioned in the plant originally provided in Biltmore. From 1934 to 1940 it was housed in a part of the David Millard High School Building and from 1940 to 1942 in the Asheville College buildings. In 1942 the college moved to its present location The David Millard High School Building, loca- tion of the College from 1934 to 1940. on Merrimon Avenue, occupying a part of the Children ' s Home property, made available by the Board of County Commissioners. In spite of these changes and moves the col- lege has pursued its aims without interruption. It has provided training beyond the high school level, thus better preparing the youth for posi- tions of responsibility in the economic and civic life of the community. The college has also made available the first two years of standard college work for those who expect to complete their training in four-year colleges and profes- sional schools. Recently a preparatory depart- ment has been added to meet the needs of those whose high school training was interrupted by the war. Asheville-Biltmore College faces the future with confidence, assured of a permanent home at its present location, provided by the recent transfer of that property to the school, with plans for expansion in buildings and equip- ment, and with the certain knowledge of its place in the cultural life of Western North Carolina, nurtured by roots that go deep intc the life of the community, roots that will not wax old and die.

This increase was brought about by bo ys just home from service. They realize that their chance for education has not been impaired, because of the war, but that a greater opportunity has been extended them. By attending both winter and summer sessions they hope to decrease the effect that a loss of time may have had on their futures. Asheville-Biltmore College is co-educational even though the girls are not as well represented as the boys. Most of the girls in the sophomore class are commercial students, and after finishing will go into office work. The class wishes them the best of luck. The Class of 1947 fully realizes the need of a four year college in Ashe- ville. With this desire as a goal, there is hope that after they take their positions as responsible citizens, a college will evolve of which later genera- tions will be proud. ke ivenuetk Ljraduallna ia56 AUDREY AIKEX W ho is it that ' s disturbing study hall bv eating ice cream cones and gossiping: Yep I Its none other than lil Audrey, our pride and joy; also our most scholarly girl of the year.

Although we constitute over half of the entire student body our efforts and desires for higher knowledge are coordinated with those of the Sophomore and Refresher classes. Most of us are veterans who, for the past few years, were interrupted in our strive for education by World War II. Nevertheless, this absence only gave us the opportunity to realize the ultimate importance of attaining degrees from various colleges and institutes of learning. From Biltmore College, we receive an introduc- tion to those important vocations that are to be attained before we go out into this specialized, complicated, world in which we live. The two years offered by Biltmore will be sufficient for some but others will go to higher colleges to delve more deeply into the professions of their choice. The know- ledge acquired will enable us to increase our earning power that is so neces- sary for a livelihood and, just as important, to make better citizens of the country in which we live and love so dearly. ke wantletk reskman L lc add Harold D.

Courses of study are provided for students sufficiently mature to enter college, but whose schooling has been retarded or interrupted. The aim of the content and instruction of a course is to prepare the student as quickly as possible for full admission to the Freshman class of college. Opportunities for acceleration in these courses are determined by the student ' s ability and application. College entrance examinations are given when the student ' s preparation is sufficient. i l ii. Elkton Ballew La Tence Garland, William M. Chambers. Jr. Furman E. Cole George Christi Alva H.

Our loss- es were small when the team handi- caps are taken into consideration. Xo gym of our own in which to practice and the inexperience of boys just back from service gives some idea of the trials of the first basketball season since the war. The boys improved rapidly and their determination and desire to win, made them a strong team, capable of winning over strong odds. We should like to express our thanks to each member of the team for his faithful cooperation during a long season and to the faculty, student body, and friends of Ashcville-Bilt- more College for their much needed support. i oack Hubert Coman ( aptc ■zpCam Graham Price ZIL 1947 SiA uildoad r VVarthen Dozie Phillips Dalton i941 Squad Walt Allen Ralph Bennett Everett Clontz Bill Dalton Cliff Dozier Phillip Gaillard Pete Grant Wayne Hensley Jim Israel Don Parker Horace Patty Arnold Phillips Graham Price Jim Sisk Slick Warren Don Warthen i heeneadi eri A.
