The clouds begin to roll away, revealing a mas- terpiece of artwork . . . artwork so real it can be touched, followed, and mar- veled at by all. This rainbow is in the minds of all stu- dents here. The 2935 students en- rolled each have an individ- ual rainbow to follow, a road they will follow to achieve their goals. The ultimate goal is satisfaction in them- selves, their work, and their life. For these 2935, the1'r rainbow's end is found here. They will begin to search for their pot of gold . . . by chas- ing rainbows. Traditions! A school with a tradition of excellence. Ex- cellence that began in 1965 and has been continued each year. Beginning with the bond vote in 1964, and suc- cessions of approving the college in December to the election of the first president on March 5 and the first graduating class of 1967, ex- cellence has been a must. This school term marks a goal for us. A goal of excel- lence for 20 long years of dedicated service to the staff and students. A rainbow of excellence for all. These rainbows of excel- lence take many forms and shapes. From English with Pete Mann to Calculus with Dr. Jo Hendrix, the caring teachers begin to build the foundations and begin to add color to classmates growing knowledges. Studying is the key to success in any given subject. Here, we know that the layouts for success are being drawn. From the view of Thompson Hall, sitting quietly and respectfully, we know that there is something special going on this year. Special ? Yes, that de- scribes this school year. Spe- cial people learning special things to become what they had always dreamed of Dreams that began and end- ed . . . by chasing rainbows. E W SHOWCASE Accessible To Comm unity igh above Thomp- son Hall sets a beautiful Commu- nity Center named after the man who was the chief benefactor, John A. Walk- er. This building contains a main auditorium which is a multi-purpose hall with a seating capacity for 1131 persons. This audito- rium is named the Nan Davis VanEvery Audito- rium after Mrs. VanEvery, who was another chief contributor to the build- ing. The auditorium is ful- ly equipped with the la- test in lighting, sound, and other technial facili- ties. It is a showcase for ballet, symphony, opera theatre, country, western, and popular entertainers. It is a place where educa- tional, business, civic, and religious groups may have meetings. The training area of the center is basically the lob- by Which is capable of be- ing divided into separate rooms by folding parti- tions arranging rooms in capacity from Hfteen to three hundred. This lobby area has lighting capabili- ties for arena staging. Mu- sic, art, and drama classes are located in the class- room behind the stage in the Center. The basic philosophy of the Center is to make it- self accessible to every ele- ment of the community wishing to use it. The management team of the center made up of Betty Thompson, Chairman, Bud Mayes, and Bob Johnston, assist in pro- moting community use of the area. They established a sound working arrange- ment between the Col- leges Board of Trustees and the Community Cen- ters Board of Directors. Mr. Walker, the chief benefactor, died on Sep- tember 14, 1984, three weeks to the day following the dedication of the Cen- ter. The spirit of communi- ty service and dedication to the growth and expan- sion of Wdlkes County lives on in the Center which bears his name. gms aumuauunouuuunmmg f i WW GH V ns- 1fT- Q., . ,355 81118 ' '54 , ,,f 'Wh gy' V 'f3g.af , . 5-UNM , , . 1 'lv A place of great beauty, Where the sun always shines, and the waters always flow: W Kerr Scott Dam near campus.

M DRE THA PRI CK IN FINGER Students Support The Bloodm obile n the twelfth of Sep- tember, an activity of great importance took place on campus. Many of the students took part in the annual bloodmobile drive. Early on the twelfth, sev- eral students assisted the bloodmobile by setting up Eve different units in the student commons area. Later, around 3:00 p.m., the same students returned and aided the bloodmobile by helping to load the truck with the units. We discovered that giving blood was a serious matter. We learned that one must eat well, must weigh at least 110 pounds, have nerves of steel, and have no needle fright before we would be likely candidates to give a pint of blood to save a life. For some of us this was the The Early Childhood Specialist Program is designed to train how to work with children, how to under- stand them, and how they develop.

The nurses and others that assisted in taking that pre- cious life-giving substance from us were thankful for the many people who took part in the drive by giving and for those who worked. Usually we reach our goal of 100 pints, but this time we came short of the goal. All types of blood were re- ceived, from A-positive to B- negative, on this day. We felt that was an important un- tethered even t, because someda y the pint we gave may be the one to save our own life, or that of another student. This was our way of helping our community in our rainbow of events. . fax: J.. '. ' 1' Ft- ' Y . ' J ffl' P2 .igzfls-Ajax... sc ,fi X' ' my 1 ' - V ss . .

Sophomores are we1l-pre- pared to start their last year at school. Whether their pro- gram is technical, transfer, or vocational, the schedules are followed to get ready for a 4- year institution or to hit the working world. It is nice to know your teachers, to be top dog at school, and to know each other by name. Being a soph- omore has many advantages. From knowing where your classes are and how to get there, sophomore benefits are enjoyed by many. The ideas and plans by the upperclass SGA lStudent Government Associatlonj help make the school the best it can be. The leadership of the Sophomores in general give the freshmen a road to travel, a goal to strive for, and a goal to attain for the dreamed of last and Sopho- more year at college. Being a Sophomore does have its advantages. Bobby Johnson, Sharon Bouchelle and Lisa Brooks relax in on the stone wall beside Thompson Hall. 4 ', , gf' 1... 'B- , x 'V , A Ju .. ' if 1.

Yes, the dreaded so- phomoritis had struck an- other hard Working class of students during the 1984- 1985 year. Survive, the soph- omores must, for this was not a fatal disease. I t is only side effects of class tardiness and surging absences. Some students during Fall quarter enjoyed playing ping-pong, or they dreaded to take the test they didn't study for, so there were a lot of absences in some classes. Remember those labs that had to be made up, the histo- ry test to be taken, the math- ematics quiz, the computer program to do over, and that English theme to complete. Well, the classes had to be made up. Our resident EMT Chuck Elledge goes into shock as our photographer Chris Vice surprises him.

' Ordeals Of The First Week FRE HME OI THE CO GAR FAMILY Beyond the restaurants, the Holiday Inn, and the North western Bank, some- thing important took place on August 30, 1984. Freshmen registered for fall quarter. Whether students were enroll- ing in vocational, technical, or college transfer programs everyone realized WCC had a lot to offer. Go Where and do what? This seemed to be the most frequently asked question on Thursday the thirtieth. After much indecision and schedule ad- justing, everyone became satiHed with their schedules. These schedules repre- sented a rainbow of choices and deci- sions. On Tuesday, September 4, every- one began chasing their own individual rainbow to Hnd a pot of gold in their future. The first week of school was hectic. After getting lost and confused most students found their way to the classes of their choice. Students found that the methods of college instructors are very different from those of high school 38fFreshmen teachers. After covering a year of high school accounting in a college quarter, freshmen Wonder if they will survive. Yet, there is no question of survival. Freshmen are welcomed to college by outstretched hands and open books: a totally different routine from high school. A routine that must be adjusted to. A new school, new instructors, and new ideas made life exciting for incom- ing freshmen. Excitement! That makes life worth living!

Freshmen H9 40fFreshmen DECISIONS Go To Class Or Not When classes started on September fourth most freshmen started to reach for the goals that they had set for them- selves. College was a new experience for them, and they really did not know what to expect. They got to choose the classes they wanted to take by selecting a certain program. They also had the responsibility to attend class and to make good grades, because no one was standing over them making sure they were. For some of them, they also re- ceived added freedom. For some, col- lege also meant putting more time in to studying, therefore, a lot of spare time was taken away. There were activities that the freshman could get involved in. In between classes, freshmen en- joyed playing ping pong, playing video games, socializing with friends in the commons, or participating in a variety of club activities. As the end of the quarter creeped up, the freshmen realized that college life was not so bad and that with a little bit of effort they would soon be able to reach their goals.

Once the freshmen started to get to know one another they begin to talk over homework assignments and go out to eat with each other. In this picture Elaine Cote, Regina Elliot, and Bill Conrad are seen enjoying talking to one another while they eat, relax, and study. They show us that college will develop new and close relationships with others. The friends we make in college will be the friends we will cher- ish for a life time.

Molted By Instructors As Freshmen prepare to continue their education many people prove to be the determining factors. Instructors are one of the most influential persons involved in helping the students make their career decisions. From instructors we gain knowledge and wisdom not only from a learned view-point but from everyday happenings. Instructors willingly answer all types and forms of questions . . . From What time is it? to How do you do those derivatives?,'. Yes, instructors must be a special type of person for from them are future lead- ers molded.

Freshmen as well as sophomores helped to make the show a success. There was entertainment for everyone - from the distinguished panel of judges, the Un- known Comic, and our more serious performers. The show was enjoyed by one and all. Tension mounted as the scores were tallied and one by one win- ners were announced. Third place went to Frank Stokes and Chrystal Speaks.

Ur Ski Better KICL B wo decades ago, skiers were few and far between, but not today. We Hnd skiing is a major sport in North Carolina. This is evidenced by the ski clubs located at the different colleges in western North Carolina. There are over 10 ski resorts located within three-fourths to one hour drive from our campus. Through the ski club one can learn a whole new way to enjoy being alive. We find skiing offering a wonderful sense of accomplishment and a rewarding new skill that we can enjoy for the rest of our lives. The club enjoys the freedom, the challenge, and the beauty of skiing. We encourage others to join us and to turn the winters into a season that ev- erybody would look forward to - a sea- son of fun and excitement.

In the academic areas we have the college transfer pro- grams, technical, and vocation- al programs. The College Transfer Pro- grams include The Associate in Arts Degree, Associate in Fine Arts Degree in Drama, Associ- ate in Science Degree, and the Associate in Science-Pre-Com- puter Science. In the Associate in Applied Science Programs of Study We have all the Business Programs, the Deisel and Auto- motive Programs, The Criminal Justice, Horticultural, Hotel- Restaurant Management, Nurs- ing Education options, Elec- tronics, and Building Construc- tion Technology. In the Voca- tional Educational Programs, we have a full year of study in- stead ofthe two years as in the other programs. These voca- tional or trade courses of study are designed to prepare the stu- dent for immediate employ- ment after graduation. These programs include, Auto Body Repair, Medical OfHce Assis- tants, Radio and Television Broadcasting, Industrial Me- chanics and Automotive Me- chanics. From all of these programs one can Hnd their area of likes and dislikes in programs and courses. Most of us can choose one or two areas and strive to met the goal of completing the program. After graduation we find ourselves ready for the job if it is a program of vocational or technical, or maybe our rain- bow is transferring to a senior institution. Two years or four years is not a life time of learning, but the academics in these gives us a start for a life time of learning, so we live to learn and to learn is to advance. We seek to reach our goals and rainbows by striv- ing to acquire knowledge.
