The System Summary
Gordon A New College With 146 Years of History
BY CATHY YARBROUGH
Gordon Junior College with the military orientation of its predecessor institution more than a year in the past is headed in new directions with new ideas and new optimism
The new style of operation already has brought many strongly evident changes including a sharp increase in enrollment and an expanded and more diversified curriculum
Jerry M Williamson president summarizing the essence of the transformation said This is a statesupported public community college open to everyone who qualifies where there once was a private military college
Theprivate military college was Gordon Military College The Board of Trustees of Gordon Military College in November 1970 and again in July 1971 petitioned the Board of Regents to accept the college as a unit of the University System of Georgia The Board of Regents in September 1971 agreed to accept the assets of the college and to assume outstanding capital and operating indebtedness of the institution Title to the assets of the college was transferred to the Board of Regents in July 1972 and the operation of the institution under University System jurisdictionand under the new name Gordon Junior College began in September 1972
Gordons history began in 1828 with the establishment of Female Seminary a high school for girls After undergoing a number of transformations it included both a high school curriculum and a college curriculum for males and females at the time it became a unit of the University System
Among the actions taken by the University System immediately upon assuming jurisdiction of Gordon were the discontinuance of the high school curriculum and of the military orientation of the college and the initiation of coeducational college enrollment for both commuting and residential students Previously enrollment of women by the college was limited to commuting students
Among the greatest things we inherited with this college
Cathy Yarbrough is an Editorial Assistant in the Office of Communications of the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia
were a sense of tradition and tremendous support from the community stated Dr Williamson who served as dean and professor of English at Clayton Junior College before he was appointed the first president of Gordon Junior College
And were trying very hard to perpetuate both the history and the sense of pride and proprietorship the community feels for this college he added
One of the first new programs launched at Gordon Junior College was community services including noncredit shortterm courses conferences seminars and workshops designed to involve the citizens of the local community
The main educational thrusts of the college however are degreeoriented studies
Gordon Junior College doubled to 30the number of majors offered in the traditional associate degree College Transfer programs which are designed for students planning to continue their studies at a senior college or a university
Associate degree Career programs were initiated to prepare preservice students to enter selected occupations after two years of study at the college and to provide opportunities for inservice personnel to obtain college education in their fields of employment while continuing to work
Other new features introduced by the college since it became a unit of the University System include an Advanced Placement program allowing students to exempt courses through testing a Special Studies program for students whose college potentials are marred by weaknesses in one or more academic areas and a Joint Enrollment program enabling outstanding area high school seniors to enroll in a maximum of 10 credit hours of college courses per quarter
OpenDoor Community College
Were an opendoor community college explained Dr Williamson As a public institution committed to meeting the educational needs of as many people as possible we have an obligation to take everyone who applies that meets our standards The standards are basically high school graduation

or its equivalency and sufficiently good physical and mental health
Gordon Junior Colleges first quarter of operation Fall of 1972 began with 571 students including 164 females and 407 males
Among the openingquarter students were 150 sophomores whose freshman year had begun when the institution was operated as Gordon Military College
One year later Fall Quarter of 1973 the enrollment increased to 750 students including 303 females and 447 males
Thats an increase of 30 percent which represents the largest increase in enrollment in any unit of the University System Gordon Junior Colleges president boasted
A prediction that the enrollment will climb to 1500 by 1976 was made by Dr Williamson Thats double what we have now observed the president who expects a fall quarter 1974 enrollment of about 1000 students
Gordon Junior College has had only one graduating ceremonyin June 1973 The graduating class totaled 90 students
In June 1974 the colleges 210 sophomores are expected to receive Associate in Arts degrees from the College Transfer programs or the Career programs
Besides the sophomores there were 423 freshmen and 117 other students included in a breakdown of the fall quarter 1973 enrollment
The other enrollees were 12 students auditing courses and therefore receiving no course credit 40 students participating in the Joint Enrollment program and 65 students involved in the Special Studies program
The fall quarter 1973 enrollment statistics also reveal 144 veterans and 606 nonveterans
Of the 750 students there were 96 minority students92 Blacks and four Spaniards The minority students represented 13 percent of the student body which is especially significant since that is the percentage of minority students who attend all colleges from our service area Dr Williamson pointed out
He added another similarity Thirteen percent or four members of the faculty of the college are minority members
Most of Students are Commuters
Most of the students come from within a 40mile radius of the college
The colleges primary commuting service area includes three counties the secondary commuting area embraces five additional counties
The counts of the commuting students in the fall quarter 1973 enrollment were 178 Upson County 161 Lamar County in which Gordon Junior College is located 156 Spalding County 45 Butts County 35 Monroe County 31 Pike County 28 Henry County three Crawford County and 30 other counties
Although the capacity of the two dormitories on the campus Connell Hall female and Powell Hall maleis 200 students the number of students who boarded at the college in the fall quarter 1973 totaled 83 47 men and 36 women Among the boarding students were seven nonGeorgia
residents who came from Alabama Illinois Indiana Maryland Massachusetts and Michigan
Also living in the dormitories once called barracks were 15 students whose homes were located in the fivecounty Atlanta metropolitan area
Dr Williamson noted that a few students commute to the campus located entirely within the city limits of Barnesville from the Atlanta metropolitan area primarily from Clayton County
Although the traditional collegeage group 17yearolds to 19yearolds dominates the Gordon Junior College student body spans all ages
We have them from 17 years to 50 years said James F Strickland dean of the college
More older adults are coming back to college for both credit courses and noncredit courses President Williamson explained
The majority of these older students are parttime evening studentsa fact which indicates that they are combining their job and family responsibilities with college studies
Evening students enrolled in a maximum of 10 credit hours of courses with classes held three evenings per weekconstitute onethird of the entire student body
The average age of evening students is 26compared with 18 to 19 for day students
Also approximately 80 percent of the evening students are employed for an average of 45 hours per week Approximately 65 percent of the day students are employed for an average of 24 hours per week
College Transfer Studies Heart of Program
College Transfer studies offering the freshman and sophomore years of college for students intending to pursue a baccalaureate degree at a senior college or a university are the heart of our educational program stated Dr Williamson
The majoritytwothirds of the students are enrolled in the College Transfer programs The remaining students are involved in the twoyear Career programs
Because the Core Curriculum of the University System is followed at Gordon credits earned there for courses in the College Transfer category are easily transferable to any of the other System units
Most of the students who receive an Associate of Arts degree in one of the 30 fields offered in the College Transfer programs continue their education usually at another University System institution
College Transfer students major or concentrate their studies in one of the following areas agriculture art biology business administration chemistry elementary education English French health and physical education history journalism language and literature mathematics music physics and preengineering political science prelaw predentistry premedicine prepharmacy preveterinary medicine psychology secondary education sociology Spanish speech and drama and urban life
Career Programs Meet Community Needs
The second thrust at Gordon is the twoyear Career programdesigned to prepare preservice students for immediate

The System Summary
employment upon graduation or to give inservice personnel opportunities to earn a twoyear college degree while continuing to hold jobs Career students concentrate their studies in one of the following areas criminal justice nursing ornamental horticulture recreation and secretarial science
After completing the requirements of the particular program the student receives an Associate of Arts degree with a major in one of the Career fields
The Career areas offered are selected primarily on the basis of what the community needs Dr Williamson said
Nurses are needed in this area as they are throughout most of the state and the nation he explained Thats why we started last fall quarter a twoyear associate degree program in nursing
Also under the banner of the Career programs is the colleges US Army ROTC unit Although it is not a military institution Gordon perpetuates the military tradition of its predecessor institution by participating in a joint ROTC program with Mercer University in Macon
Gordon Junior College students may supplement their studies in the College Transfer programs or the Career programs with courses in ROTC
Successful completion of the twoyear military science program enables a student to enter advanced ROTC training at a senior college or a university
In that way President Williamson explained the student may get a military commission after two years at Gordon Junior College and another two years of ROTC training at another institution
Currently 50 males and 15 females at Gordon participate in the ROTC program
Dr Williamson said that he may request authority from the Board of Regents to launch additional Career programs in the fields of journalism interior design and midmanagement
Eventually I believe that there will be as many students in our Career programs as there will be in the College Transfer programs he stated
The switch will come because people are becoming more pragmatic in their views of college education he said They want their education to meet such specific goals as job mobility and increased salary
People want training they know will be useful in a job situation
Another factor Dr Williamson continued is the increasing eed for career retraining Many people are going into second careers because of personal desire or because of the phasing ut of a first career he said
However liberal education will always be necessary in our society the president stressed And what is ideal about a junior college is that it has the flexibility to offer both career and liberal educations Dr Williamson said
Various Special Programs Offered
As part of its goal of serving all members of the community iordon Junior College in the fall quarter 1973 established a Special Studies program This program offers remedial work
to prepare students who initially do not meet minimum requirements for admission to regular collegelevel work but who have potential for collegelevel study
The typical student admitted to the Special Studies program needs one quarter of remedial studies in writing reading and mathematicsto catch up according to Dean Strickland Approximately 45 of the 65 students enrolled in the Special Studies program in the fall quarter 1973 were able to enter regular collegelevel work in the winter quarter 1974
Credit hours earned from remedial coursework are not applied toward meeting graduation requirements
In lieu of an honors program said President Williamson an Advanced Placement program is offered so that students with superior academic capabilities may exempt courses
Any time during his two years here a student can try to exempt courses by taking the College Level Examination Program of the College Entrance Examination Board Dr Williamson explained
Scores on the examination determine course exemptions Approximately 15 students per quarter exempt an average of
10 credit hours of courses through the examination Dr Williamson said
Faculty Staff Profiles Cited
The faculty and the staff of Gordon Junior College have undergone some farreaching changes with the switch from a private militaryoriented institution to a public junior college
The college has 27 fulltime faculty members and 16 parttime faculty members who like the course majors offered are organized into the divisions of Humanities Mathematics and Natural Sciences Social Science Special Studies and Nursing
The fulltime faculty members include two full professors one associate professor four assistant professors and twenty instructors
Of the present 27 fulltime faculty members five were retained from the prior administration Also three former Gordon Military College employees are among the colleges
11 staff members
During 197273 Gordon Junior College hired five new faculty members and seven new staff members During 197374 another 17 faculty members and one staff member have been hired
The new staff members include three professional librarians four administrators and one audiovisual coordinator
Of the people brought into the college under University System operations Dr Williamson pointed out eight have earned a doctoral degree
Therefore 29 percent of the 197374 faculty members have a doctoral degreecompared to four percent in 197273
The remaining faculty members hold masters degrees Seven of these the president added are working on a doctoral degree
The average age of the faculty and staff members is 31
We want unique people on the faculty the president said We look for individuals who are competent dedicated to

teaching and who are committed to the role of a community college We want them to get involved in the community to help identify community needs and to play a part in solving them
Many NonCredit Offerings Available
Through its Office of Community Services Gordon sponsors a wide range of noncredit special conferences workshops and institutes many of which are aimed at specific community needs
For instance the college in cooperation with the BarnesvilleLamar County Chamber of Commerce and the McIntosh Trail Area Planning and Development Commission holds monthly workshops probing such community problems as solidwaste disposal and zoning
The session on solidwaste disposal resulted in the drawing up by officials of Lamar County and of eight surrounding counties of a plan on solidwaste disposal Dr Williamson explained
More than 500 local nonstudents were enrolled during
197273 in 750 noncredit conferences workshops seminars institutes and short courses whose topics ranged from sewing to Unidentified Flying Objects
Dr Williamson said that the local citizens have gained a high degree of familiarity with the campus almost equal to that of the students because of the community services programs and the athletic and cultural events sponsored there
At least 50 percent of the persons attending any athletic event or dramatic or musical production staged by the college at its 1500seat auditoriumgymnasium Alumni Memorial Hall are local nonstudents
Besides having an intramural athletic program Gordon Junior College has intercollegiate basketball and baseball teams which participate in competition in the Georgia Junior College Athletic Association
Each spring quarter the Department of Music at the college produces a Broadway show which will be Marne this year The production of Hello Dolly last year attracted 1500 nonstudents
Dr Williamson estimated that 75 percent of the 1000 persons in attendance at a special performance of the Atlanta Symphony with Robert Shaw conducting at the college last spring were nonstudents from Griffin Barnesville Forsyth and other communities within the Gordon commuting area
The Atlanta Symphony performance will be repeated this spring again supported with funds from the cultural enrichment program of the Gordon Junior College Foundation which also provides faculty salary supplements faculty moving expenses to the college and scholarships and loans
The Foundationthe majority of whose members were on the Board of Trustees of Gordon Military College has raised 37000 through donations according to Dr Williamson
Face of Campus Changing
A change in the face of Gordons 135acre campus has been made under University System operation of the college
The howitzers antiaircraft guns and drone rockets that
were on display around the campus when the institution was Gordon Military Collegewere removed
We really were well equipped to defend ourselves in case of attack quipped Dr Williamson referring to the military landmarks
However two brass cannons were left in front of Lambdin Hall the administration building
And the Alumni Room in Russell Hall displays such memorabilia as old uniforms guns and pictures to afford students an insight into the long heritage of their college
Russell Hall an academic building containing the library and laboratories in addition to the Alumni Room is named after one of Gordons approximately 5000 alumnithe late Senator Richard B Russell who graduated in 1915
Renovation and campus development projects received top priority when Gordon became a unit of the University System
These projects completed or in progress and costing 268500 include renovation of mechanical systems electrical systems kitchendining hall and two other buildings reroofing of three buildings resurfacing of tennis courts and of student parking lots and demolition of three buildings
The renovations include the conversion of a former military building to a fine arts building and the conversion of a former mens dormitory to a womens dormitory
The campus is large enough President Williamson said to permit all anticipated growth Included in the total of 135 acres is a 72acre golf course which is leased to the City of Barnesville
After the demolition of three buildings already marked for removal there will be eight buildings on the main campus Plans for replacement buildings and additional structures are well under way

VoTech Goes
to College

At Brunswick Junior College a student may learn to draw a 10story building unravel the intricacies of a Shakespearean sonnet trace the history of his forefathers or wield a fiery welding machine He has a broad choice because the college offers him the diversification of two different types of statesupported institutionsa degreeawarding junior college and an area vocationaltechnical school
Brunswick Junior College students have had this wide range of programs available to them since the establishment of a VocationalTechnical Division at the college in the winter quarter of 1972 It was the initiation of this new division that helped most to mark the 10yearold institution as a comprehensive community college a longtime aspiration of its officials according to President John W Teel
Establishment of the VocationalTechnical Division also may account for the stabilization of the colleges enrollment over the past two years a time when many colleges experienced enrollment decreases
An innovation in the University System of Georgia the VocationalTechnical Division was set up under a special agreement between the Board of RegentsUniversity System of Georgia and the State Board for Vocational EducationState Department of Education
It marked the first time a vocationaltechnical program actually had been integrated into a college in the University System In Georgia the State Board for Vocational Education has principal jurisdiction in the field of vocationaltechnical education
Responsibilities of all parties in the cooperative operation of the VocationalTechnical Division are spelled out in the agreement between the Board for Vocational Education and the Board of Regents
The State Board for Vocational Education pays 50 percent
By BRENDA TAYLOR
Editorial Assistant Office of Communications University System of Georgia
of the personnel costs of the new programs offered by the VocationalTechnical Division and furnishes all equipment necessary to carry out the programs
The State Board for Vocational Education also provides all funds for shortterm courses taught under the supervision of the VocationalTechnical Division for which no college credit is awarded
The Board of Regents in addition to funding half of the personnel costs provides the buildings and physical plant services as well as any salary supplements needed to employ persons with special qualifications to fill positions in the VocationalTechnical Division Base salaries of faculty members in the division are based on salary schedules for faculty members at the area vocationaltechnical schools
While the VocationalTechnical Division is under the immediate jurisdiction of President Teel it is operated in compliance with specified procedures that are applicable to the operation of the 26 existing area vocationaltechnical schools established in Georgia under the aegis of the State Board for Vocational Education The reports that the president files with the State Board for Vocational Education are in the forms of reports filed by the directors of the area vocationaltechnical schools with the same board
President Teel said that extensive study and preparation preceded the establishment of the division at Brunswick Junior College a commuter institution which sprawls on 100 verdant acres within the city limits of the coastal city of Brunswick
There had been a lot of interest among our citizens in

EDITORS NOTE Brunswick Junior College was the first University System of Georgia institution to establish a VocationalTechnical Education Division under a special agreement between the Board of RegentsUniversity System of Georgia and the State Board for Vocationcd EducationState Department of Education The agreement provides that special consideration be given to the establishment of a collegebased vocationaltechnical division in a community which has a University System college but does not have an area vocationaltechnical school
Similar divisions have been authorized for two other University System institutions Dalton Junior College and Bainbridge Junior College And a study is being made to determine whether such a division should be established at still another University System junior college Middle Georgia College Cochran
Also general statewide studies are being conducted continually to identify other communities if any in which voca
tionalteclinical divisions should be established under the Board of RegentsState Board for Vocational Education agreement
Other vocationaltechnical programs are being offered with
the cooperation of several other University System colleges
These programs which are not so nearly comprehensive as those
offered by or planned for the fullfledged college divisions are
being conducted under locally arranged cooperative agreements
between the colleges and nearby area vocationaltechnical
schools The colleges and the area vocationaltechnical schools
share responsibility for providing the course work required for
completion of these programs Typically a college provides r
general education courses and an area vocationaltechnical
school provides specialized courses
The System Summary
and Does Well
locating an area vocationaltechnical school here because of the great need for competent skilled employees in the area he explained The closest school of this type to Brunswick is in Waycross about 60 miles away
We already had organized a Citizens Advisory Committee for VocationalTechnical Education here to determine the needs of the community
The committee was composed of the superintendent of Glynn County schools high school counselors and representatives from the college local business and industry the Brunswick Chamber of Commerce city and county government and the State Department of Labor
From surveys studied by the committee Dr Teel said we confirmed the need for vocationaltechnical education in the area The committee also determined that there was a solid interest in vocationaltechnical programs among students already enrolled at the college
With the need for vocationaltechnical education determined the Board of Regents and the State Board for Vocational Education decided to establish a division within the college by implementing the joint agreement That move was made in lieu of the establishment of a separate area vocationaltechnical school in the area
Division Head is Experienced
The man chosen to head the VocationalTechnical Division at the college was Lamar Holloway former director of the
Valdosta Area VocationalTechnical School Mr Holloway was graduated from Georgia Southern College with a bachelors degree in Industrial Arts and from North Carolina State University with a masters degree in the same field He received a sixyear certificate in Industrial Arts from Georgia Southern and did additional graduate study at Florida State University and at the University of Georgia Mr Holloway has had more than 20 years of study and experience in the field of trade and industry
Having been director of an area vocationaltechnical school I had felt for a long time the need for area schools to be allowed to award associate degrees in their twoyear programs Mr Holloway said Or as an alternative we should offer vocationaltechnical career programs in the colleges so students could get a degree and a job skill at the same time If a student invests two years in vocationaltechnical education he should receive an associate degree just like the person who invests two years in any other subject such as English or history
Naturally I was very pleased when I learned of the plan to incorporate a VocationalTechnical Division into Brunswick Junior College With pressures from parents and society to go on to college and earn a degree the high school graduate often does not feel free to choose alternatives to a general education such as those offered by an area vocationaltechnical school even though he may be more fascinated by automobile mechanics than by anything he could study at a college or university
New Division Welcomed Accepted
In some states efforts to integrate vocationaltechnical education into the college have met strong opposition from academicians
Some people in general education feel that votech education in the college lowers academic standards President Teel explained But we havent found that to be true here at all Many of the votech students are among the best and brightest students we have
The new division came to Brunswick Junior College with little or no apparent opposition The community welcomed it and the regular academic faculty accepted it The vocationaltechnical education instructors soon formed strong alliances with the personnel of other divisions in efforts to provide students with currculums tailored to fit individual needs
Strongest opposition was expected from the Business Administration Divisionbecause the VocationalTechnical Division initiated a program in Marketing and Management and a program in Clerical Science which some people feared might be construed as an infringement on Business Administration territory
William F Watson instructor in Business Administration courses talked about his reaction to the new division I was very favorably impressed with what the division was trying to do he said I realized that the two divisions were serving different purposes The instructors in VoTech were teaching practical application while we were teaching with the idea of preparing the student to transfer to a fouryear institution
There was no resentment if a student in our program

decided to switch to the VoTech Divisionbecause we knew that the program there probably could provide his particular needs better A lot of students arent best suited for our curriculumso we work very closely with the VoTech Division to find out which program best suits the student
All of us also realized that this vocationalism is the coming thing Kids are tired of taking courses that dont get them jobready They want to get out of college prepared to step into a job
Programs are Career Oriented
All vocationaltechnical education programs at Brunswick Junior College are classified in the Career category Career programs prepare students to step into jobs after one year or two years of study as opposed to College Transfer programs which prepare them to continue their educations at fouryear institutions
Besides the differences in subject matters dealt with the only major difference between the vocationaltechnical programs and the other Career programs offered at the college is in the bases upon which they are implemented
A vocationaltechnical program is initiated only after the need for trained personnel in that specific field in the service area of the college is proved by survey A Career program outside the VocationalTechnical Division may be initiated upon determination of need for trained personnel in that particular field wherever the graduates of the program may be likely to seek employment
Programs in the VocationalTechnical Division are implemented only after being ultimately approved by both the State Board for Vocational Education and the Board of Regents The other Career programs at the college are initiated with ultimate approval of the Board of Regents only
Career programs currently being offered at Brunswick Junior College are
VocationalTechnicalcollegecredit programs in Drafting and Design Technology Data Processing Marketing and Management Medical Laboratory Technology Clerical Science Welding Fire Science Technology a cooperative program between Brunswick Junior College and Southern Technical Institute Marietta a fouryear division of the Georgia Institute of Technology Atlanta and noncredit programs in Radiologic Technology and Practical Nursing
Students in the vocationaltechnical collegecredit programs have the choice of earning either a twoyear associate degree or a oneyear certificateexcept in the Medical Laboratory Technology and Fire Science Technology programs which award only the twoyear associate degree
NonvocationalTechnical collegecredit programs in Nursing Secretarial Science and Recreation Students in these Career programs may earn only a twoyear associate degree
Approximately 40 percent of the students at Brunswick Junior College in the winter quarter of 1974 were enrolled in the Career programs The enrollment in Career programs was divided approximately equally between vocationaltechnical programs and nonvocationaltechnical programs
The remaining approximately 60 percent of the students were pursuing College Transfer programs
Growth Has Been Steady
The VocationalTechnical Division opened in the winter quarter of 1972 with 30 students enrolled in one program Data Processing
The curriculum was expanded for the spring quarter of 1972 by adding Medical Laboratory Technology and Drafting and Design Technology The enrollment grew to 53 students
By the fall quarter of 1972 vocationaltechnical students also could choose from Marketing and Management Clerical Science and Welding Enrollment in the VocationalTechnical Division jumped to 142 students
In the fall quarter of 1973 Practical Nursing and Radiologic Technology were established as offcampus noncredit programs Four additional instructors were employed in the divisiontwo for the new programs one in Medical Laboratory Technology and another in Drafting and Desing Technologybringing the number of fulltime faculty members in the division to 10
ALL OF THE PROGRAMS in the VocationalTechnical Division have one thing in common They all require some course work in general academics
Most of the general education courses required in the vocationaltechnical education programs are taught in other divisions of the college
Also the programs in the new division require some exposure of the students to practical experiences as part of the currculums This objective is accomplished in one of three ways onthejob training laboratory experiences or special projects carried out in conjunction with a local business or industry
An active relationship exists between the VocationalTechnical Division and the community it serves It is not unusual on a given day to find a local businessman talking to a class of students performing a demonstration or conferring with an instructor The cooperation by local citizens is strictly voluntary
I see getting involved with the votech students here as a type of investment said Ed Cheshire an architect with BaldwinCheshire Architects in Brunswick after a recent presentation on sketch perspectives to a Drafting and Design Technology class
Its really very difficult to find competent draftsmen in this area right now so the program here is meeting a very real need These students eventually will be looking to us for jobs and we would be foolish not to get involved in their educations now to get better qualified employees later I would say there is at least one person from each major architectural firm in the community on one of the craft advisory committees in the VoTech Division
Graduates Already on Jobs
Although the VocationalTechnical Division is only two years old its graduates number 20four in Clerical Science
to
The System Summary
14 in Welding one in Medical Laboratory Technology and one in Drafting and Design Technology Most of these graduates have taken jobs in one of the seven major counties served by Brunswick Junior CollegeGlynn Camden Brantley Wayne McIntosh Long and Charlton And they all are working in the vocationaltechnical fields for which they prepared
The division is expected to have about 68 graduates in 1974 from the six collegecredit degree and certificate programs now existing and 19 graduates from the two offcampus noncredit programs
MARYJANE AUSTIN acting dean of Academic Affairs at Brunswick Junior College explained how the curriculum for the VocationalTechnical Division unlike the curriculums for other divisions within the college is determined solely by need in the Brunswick area We have to know that jobs are available in a particular area before we initiate a new program in that area she said
The need may come to our attention in any one of a number of ways Dean Austin continued Mr Holloway the VocationalTechnical Divisions chairman may suggest a certain program someone from the business or industrial communities may come to us with a proposal for a new program or the suggestion may come from the students
An important means of recognizing needs within the divi
sion is a general advisory council to Mr Holloway made up of community leaders in industry and business the local school system city and county governments and the State Department of Labor
In addition each program has its own craft advisory committee to work with instructors on course content These committees are made up of working people from the various vocationaltechnical and professional fields
While the VocationalTechnical Division is concerned with what it has to offer the incoming college student it also addresses itself to those people already on the job who wish to upgrade their skills or develop new skills to add to their employment potential For that reason many of the vocationaltechnical education classes also are taught at night making it possible for persons holding fulltime jobs to attend classes in Data Processing Drafting and Design Technology Marketing and Management and Welding to earn a twoyear associate degree or a oneyear certificate
Dan Fenn industrial coordinator in the division works with the local communities in three counties McIntosh Camden and Glynnto find out what courses are needed either in a degree program or a permanent certificate program at the college or in shortterm courses olfered at convenient points out in the counties
No college credit is awarded for shortterm courses which are offered not as part of a total program but merely as a means of upgrading or acquiring a particular skill or knowledge
Division Not Set Apart
Since the inception of the VocationalTechnical Division one of the main concerns of the Brunswick Junior College administration has been to avoid setting it apart from the rest of the college Great pains have been taken to assure the vocationaltechnical education students that they have standing equal to that of the other students at the college
When we were setting up guidelines some people at the State Department of Education felt that we shouldnt require votech students to pay tuition because the area vocationaltechnical schools do not charge tuition President Teel said But that was just the thing we were trying to guard against We wanted the votech students to be treated the same as all other students at the college
Vocationaltechnical education students do pay the same tuition pay the same student activity fee and have the same rights and privileges as the rest of the students at the college They are eligible for the same types of financial aid available to all other students Out of 98 students who received some type of financial aid in a recent quarter 21 were in the VocationalTechnical Division
Students in the VocationalTechnical Division represent a number of age groups as well as socioeconomic backgrounds although a majority of them are in the traditional collegeage group of between 18 and 25
Classrooms for the division are sprinkled about the colleges

campus For instance Welding classes are held in the colleges mechanical building Drafting and Design Technology classes for secondyear students also meet in that building in a section that once was an outside storage area The Marketing and Management classroom is a mobile home leased by the college from the Brunswick College Foundation
At best conditions are crowded But means for alleviating the problem already have been approved
Plans for a new vocationaltechnical education building with a projected cost of 700000 have been approved by the Board of Regents and college officials are hoping the building will be ready for classes by January 1975 The new facility will have four classrooms and four laboratories
Continued Growth Envisioned
So what does the future hold for vocationaltechnical education at Brunswick Junior College besides a shiny new building
I see nothing but growth said President Teel
As the needs of the community change new programs will be initiated and old ones will be phased out in the VocationalTechnical Division Plans for three new programs already approved are just waiting in the wings for the opening of the new building Course outlines and descriptions are in the files on these oneyear certificate programs for machinists for automobile mechanics and for heating ventilation and air conditioning specialists
Dr Teel feels that the establishment of the VocationalTechnical Division has favorably influenced enrollment at the college At a time when many colleges and universities have experienced drops in enrollmentsome drastically Brunswick Junior College has maintained its enrollment Dr Teel believes the new division rightfully may take some of the credit
In the fall of 1971 the college had 1013 students enrolled In the fall of 1972 when many colleges enrollments dropped and when the new division was going into its fourth quarter Brunswick Junior College held its enrollment at 1014 By the fall of 1973 enrollment had increased slightly to 1067
Dr Teel predicts a continuation of enrollment levelingoff at Brunswick Junior College as at most other colleges for the immediate future But in view of the favorable influence of the VocationalTechnical Division he does not believe enrollment at the college will drop drastically
E F Griffith assistant dean of Student Affairs says he encounters a great deal of interest in the vocationaltechnical education programs from students he talks with on recruiting visits to high schools in the area
The future of vocationaltechnical education at BJC looks stable The colleges officials see it as a permanent division with great responsibilities to the coastal area
SOME PEOPLE were a little pessimistic when we first started talking about the division here President Teel recalls
One or two of them told me Youre really going to have
problems
And of course there have been problemsbecause we were the first in the University System to attempt a project like this one We didnt have a model to go by But we feel we have been able to integrate the division into the college without any major difficulties And the benefits outweigh the problems we had to overcome
Brunswick Junior College took the first step into vocationaltechnical education territory in the University System Other colleges in the System now have a working model

College Goal at Bainbridge
The Whole Picture Not Just a Piece of the Puzzle
By CATHY YARBROUGH
Editorial Assistant Office of Communications University System of Georgia
Too many people have the idea that the rewards of education come only later after a student has graduated from college said Dr Edward D Mobley president of the Bainbridge Junior College Bainbridge
But it shouldnt be that way he continued Learning itself should be an enjoyable and satisfying experience
Thus the head of one of the newest colleges in Georgia summed up a major point in his philosophy of education
Dr Mobley was named president at Bainbridge on March 6 1972 when the physical facilities of the college were in the early stage of development Therefore he has had an extraordinary opportunity to put his imprint on all major aspects of the institution including the curriculum the extracurricular programs and the makeup of the faculty Before assuming the Bainbridge presidency he was a professor of music and the academic dean of Dalton Junior College Dalton which like the Bainbridge collegeis a unit of the University System of Georgia
Bainbridge Junior College along with Emanuel County Junior College Swainsboro opened in the 1973 fall quarter These two colleges became the 29th and the 30th unitsthe 13th and the 14th junior colleges of the University System They both are made up entirely of commuting students
The people of southwest Georgia really needed a junior college said Dr Mobley summing up the importance of the geographic position of Bainbridge Junior College which is in the extreme southwest corner of the state The students in the area didnt have a college that they could commute to so they had to live oncampus at a college or just not go at all
The Bainbridge college opened with an enrollment of 217 students The enrollment increased to 233 students in the 1974 winter quarter and further to 278 students in the 1974 spring quarter
The main educational thrusts of the college are College Transfer programs which lead to an Associate of Arts degree and Career programs in which students earn the Associate
of Science degree or a oneyear certificate The College Transfer programs are designed for students who plan to continue their education toward baccalaureate degree studies at a senior college or a university The Career programs are provided for preservice students who intend to begin employment in their chosen fields upon finishing their study in junior college and for inservice students who wish to obtain additional education in their fields of work while continuing to hold jobs
The majority of the students 195 out of 278 in the 1974 spring quarterare enrolled in the College Transfer programs
In the College Transfer programs students major in one of

In the Career programs students choose one of three fields administrative and business development criminal justice or secretarial studies
Graduates of the administrative and business development program are generally prepared for occupations in retail and wholesale companies as well as in manufacturing said Dr Mobley
The criminal justice program is operated in cooperation with Albany Junior College Albany another institution of the University System which sends instructional personnel to the Bainbridge colleges campus to teach professional courses required in the curriculum Most of the students in this program are already employed in law enforcement said Dr Mobley These inservice students usually attend evening classesat the Bainbridge collegefor their general education courses
The secretarial studies program combines general education and business education As was the case with each of the other Career programs of the college the secretarial studies program was initiated because there existed within the community a need for the type of graduates the program would produce The program was started because there was a shortage of welltrained secretaries in this area explained Dr Robert W Dubay academic dean of the college
The college also has a oneyear certificate program in secretarial studies The graduates of this program along with students who transferred to the Bainbridge college from other institutions will compose the colleges first graduating class of approximately 20 persons in June 1974
The college also has a Special Studies program and a Joint Enrollment of Twelfth Grade Students JETS program The Special Studies program provides basic institutional credit instruction in mathematics English social sciences and reading for marginally prepared students After completing the Special Studies program the student enrolls in regular academic collegecredit studies at the college The JETS program allows outstanding high school seniors to enroll in credit courses at the college while completing their high school requirements
Interdisciplinary Format Used
President Mobleys belief that the educational process itselfnot just its future resultsshould be fulfilling is reflected

THE BAINBRIDGE CAMPUS
The physical plant facilities of Bainbridge Junior College Bainbridge enclosing a total of 71207 square feet include an administration building an academic building a student services building a physical education building and a plant operations building
With brick and cream color exterior finishes and heavy redwood carved doors the buildings blend in with the somewhat rustic setting of the campus Still in the midst of landscaping the campus grounds are covered largely by sand and scatterings of pine trees In addition to a few palm trees there are oak trees whose limbs are covered with mosslike tinsel decorating a Christmas pine Yucca plants and Bear grassboth native to the area are being planted on the grounds
We want to keep the campus as natural looking as possible commented Dr Edward D Mobley president of the college We dont want a manicured look or a formal landscaped look
Low Land Will Become Asset
On one side of the campus is a 50acre area of forest that was once a lakesite We cant construct a building there because the land is so low that it cant hold a building the president explained This area could be a liability but were going to turn it into an asset
The asset will be a nature trail for use by the citizens of Bainbridge as well as by the students staff members and faculty members of the college Were going to cultivate a lot of natural plants that are indigenous to the region along the trail so that people will be able to enjoy an area that is relatively ecologically intact Dr Mobley said The trail will be good for natural sciences and ecology classes but it should be used by anyone who is interested
Dotting the campus are futuristic black and chrome lights of varying heights Inside the buildings the bright colors of the walls and of the furnishings promote a casual comfortable atmosphere Blue red and white chairs surround the tables of the snack bar in the student center
In the library located in the academic building chocolate brown carpet brown and tan painted and brickcovered wall space and dark oak wood furniture are combined with bright blue upholstery A special feature is a collection of paintings and drawings on loan to the college by a Macon artist

inside and outside the classrooms in both the academic courses and the student activities at the Bainbridge college
To make the educational process as enjoyable as possible the president and his faculty follow an interdisciplinary format in many of the required subjects in both the College Transfer programs and the Career programs
An interdisciplinary approach means we dont present a course as if it existed in isolation from other subjects explained President Mobley
We show the interconnecting angles between the disciplines added Dean Dubay We attempt to give the student the whole picturenot just a piece of the puzzle
Faculty Members are Guest Lecturers
This interdisciplinary approach is accomplished in part by guest lecturersfaculty members at the college A faculty member in one discipline becomes a guest lecturer by teaching a course in another discipline for one or several class sessions The guest lecturer presents information from his discipline that is of special application to the particular course
In a humanities course for instance a student doesnt learn about just art and literature The arts dont exist in isolation from their environments reasoned President Mobley Through guest lecturers from other disciplines the student learns about the politics the music and the people that influencedand in turn were affected bythe art and the literature of a particular period such as the Renaissance
In fact a music segment of the humanities courses is taught by Dr Mobley who holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in music a Master of Music Education degree and a Doctor of Philosophy degree in music
An interdisciplinary approach is also followed in the majority of the physical education courses at the college Were concentrating on the interdisciplinary and intellectual aspects as well as the physical aspects of physical education said Dean Dubay
In the badminton course for instance a student learns not only how to play the game but also what happens to his respiratory system and the rest of his body while he is playing badminton explained President Mobley So we bring a little biology into the physical education course
All physical education courses at the college require at least one lecture period among the three required sessions during a week
Thoreau Influences Physical Education
Perhaps the most interdisciplinary and most intellectually oriented physical education course is Sauntering As described by the college catalog Sauntering is brief excursions extolling the virtues of walking for pleasure and physical fitness The course includes weekly lectures and laboratory sessions on such subjects as the life and letters of Henry David Thoreau nature and environment study and the interaction between ecological systems and human systems
As one of the guest lecturers in Sauntering Dr Mobley
LOCALSTATE COOPERATION
Bainbridge Junior College was established by the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia under a contract with the Decatur County Board of Education and the City of Bainbridge That agreement provided for the local governmental subdivisions to provide a campus site and funds for the development of initial physical plant facilities
Similar agreements have been used for the establishment of all other junior colleges of the University System since the expansion of the System began in the late 1950s The Board of Regents pays all operating costs of the new colleges from the beginning and provides additional physical plant facilities needed for expansion of the institutions
The campus site provided for the Bainbridge college consists of 150 acres located alongside US Highway 84 approximately two miles east of downtown Bainbridge
The funds for the development of the physical facilities for the opening of the college were provided through a 2 million bond issue authorized by the voters of Decatur County
Authorization for the establishment of the college was voted by the Board of Regents in December 1970 The agreement between the Board of Regents and the Decatur County Board of Education and the City of Bainbridge was approved by the Regents in January 1972 The contract for the construction of the buildings that make up the present physical plant was awarded by the Regents in July 1972
discusses Thoreaus Concord and Walden and Walden II In other sessions an assistant professor of political science Raymond Chambers talks about the Political Views of Thoreau and an assistant professor of biology Robert Lane Jr tells the students about the wildlife and the plants they can observe while sauntering in the woods
While it may not be representative of traditional athletic courses Sauntering is typical of the physical education program at the Bainbridge college
OUR PHYSICAL EDUCATION program is lifecentered explained Dr Mobley We want our students to learn a recreational activity in physical education that they will be able to use the rest of their lives Its not easy for a person after he has left school to get a team together to play football or basketball But it will be easy for him to bicycle or saunter so we teach these types of recreational activities
After a student has completed a required course in physical education he has a choice of such lifecentered courses as
18
The System Summary
badminton table tennis golf and handball as well as an equal number of activities that dont require many athletic skills
An example is Recreational Games which according to the college catalog emphasizes activities which have a carryover value rather than activities that stress the mastery of performance skills The course introduces terminology skills and knowledge of some lifetime sports and games
Another such course is Viewing and Appreciating Contemporary American Spectator Sports which according to the catalog is designed for students who do not desire to participate in sports but who hope to achieve a more comprehensive understanding of how to become an effective spectator
Spartanism is still another physical education course which departs from the usual mode As described in the catalog this course is a comparison and contrast between the physical lifestyles of ancient Greece and those of contemporary society Health physical training diet control and mental concepts are taught
Such physical education courses as Sauntering and Spartanism as well as the interdisciplinary teaching approach are part of the colleges goal to provide a broad general education for the first two years of college President Mobley said
WERE NOT REALLY doing anything different here Were presenting the student with the same information but with a more creative approachwhich is essentially our interdisciplinary format and our use of onehour credit courses
Explaining the onehour credit courses Dr Mobley commented In many of the regular fivehour credit courses one often doesnt have the time to explore a particular topic in the course in great depth So when the students and the faculty find a topic that they want to learn more about we try to set up a onehour course
Onehour credit courses have been offered in such subjects as foreign policy voting patterns and Old South history
Faculty Role Emphasized
Dr Mobley credits the faculty for the colleges teaching approach As a junior college we have a small faculty he pointed out Our smallness means that the faculty members all know each other And there are few divisional or departmental barriers So the faculty members can easily get together and organize the interdisciplinary teaching of a course
Most members of the administration also are involved in teaching Dean Dubay pointed out Dr Mobley teaches handball as well as humanities Dr Dubay teaches American history The comptroller Robert Koermer is an instructor in business administration The director of student development services David Hay teaches Education The director of continuing education Michael Gast is an instructor in psychology and in business And the financial aid officer John Mize teaches history
Everyone here teaches explained Dr Dubay because
we want everyone to have exposure to students and to contribute something to the educational process
Even the members of the Bainbridge college staff have something to contribute to the educational process outside their regular duties according to President Mobley We have staff members on college committees and on some lay advisory committees he said We want to bring our staff members into the center of things and to make them feel close to the academic community
The attitude of staff members is important because a student usually has his first contact at the college with one of our staff members he added And the student has many continuing contacts with staff members
There are 18 faculty members in the corps of instruction who along with the 6 administrative officers handle the teaching responsibilities at the college All of the faculty members in the corps of instruction and 4 of the administrative officers have professorial rank 12 are instructors 9 are assistant professors and 1 is an associate professor
A breakdown by highest degrees received shows that the administrative officers and faculty members of the corps of instruction include 6 with doctoral degrees 17 with master s degrees including 4 who are scheduled to receive doctoral degrees by August 1974 and 1 with a bachelors degree who is a candidate to receive a doctoral degree by August 1974
The faculty members were recruited from six states but the majority of them came from Georgia according to Dr Dubay
When we interviewed people for our faculty positions said President Mobley we asked them what they could bring to Bainbridge Junior College other than teaching skills in their particular areas We wanted faculty members who would bring additional skills and interests that they could share with the students and other faculty members Our aim is to build a total academic environment We want Bainbridge

Junior College to be more than an institution which has only students going to only required classes
Faculty members share their special interests and skills particularly through the colleges continuing education program and such special campus activities as the Thursday Cultural Hour
Continuing Education Popular
The continuing education program of short courses seminars and conferences has been especially popular among the citizens of Bainbridge and of the surrounding areas Weve had a great deal of participation in our continuing education program Dr Mobley said In fact the enrollment has approached and during the winter quarter it was higher than our credit enrollment
During the 1973 fall quarter there were 208 participants in the continuing education program and 217 students enrolled in the academic programs
During the 1974 winter quarter there were 268 participants in the continuing education program and 233 students enrolled in the academic programs
For the 1974 spring quarter projections indicate 225 persons will participate in the continuing education program while 278 students are enrolled in academic programs
While most of the participants in continuing education at the college are middleage and young adults students in these programs range from age 6 to age 70 The majority of the participants are residents of Decatur County however a considerable number of them come from the surrounding nearby areas of Early County Grady County Miller County Mitchell County Seminole County and Thomas County People from the northern portion of Florida also join continuing education classes
Dr Dubay and I speculated that the people of southwest Georgia were hungry for the types of things we could offer in our continuing education program said Dr Mobley Therefore we appointed a fulltime rather than a parttime director of continuing education And our relatively high enrollment shows that our prediction was right
Continuing Education Units are awarded to participants in many of the continuing education courses at the college These units each representing 10 contact hours of instruction are accumulated on a permanent transcript in the records office of the college
Although the Continuing Education Units dont constitute academic credit they signify educational advancement An individual can use the units to help him obtain a job or maybe a promotion explained Dr Mobley
The continuing education courses offered at the college span a variety of subjects Most are tailormade to what the people in the community want or need said Dr Mobley
Short courses scheduled for the 1974 spring quarter deal with such subjects as Everyday Law Genealogy Photography Flower and Vegetable Gardening and Tumbling for Children
20
Most of the continuing education teachers are faculty members at the college who are sharing their interests with the people of the community Dr R Everett Langford instructor in chemistry and mathematics teaches the photography class
Robert Lane Jr chairman of the Science and Mathematics Division instructs the Flower and Vegetable Gardening course
Cultural Activities Offered
The continuing education program also includes besides the short courses special activities such as the Book Review Club a parent effectiveness training group and a Wednesday Noon Time Scholars session in which local citizens bring their lunch to a meeting room of the student center and view a film or hear a lecture
Another continuing education special activity is the Bainbridge Junior CollegeCommunity Chorus composed of students and local citizens who give recitals for the college and the community
In a small urban setting like Bainbridge there are not that many cultural activities said Dr Mobley So we generate these activities ourselves for the benefit of the students faculty and members of the community
Many cultural activities on the campus will be supported financially by the Bainbridge Junior College Foundation which has 47 trustees The foundation also will provide scholarship and loan aid to students The foundation will fund those things that were not able to fund with our regular college budget Dr Mobley explained
Collegesponsored cultural activities have involved a Fine

Bainbridge Continued from Page 20
Arts Week featuring exhibits films concerts and displays of such crafts as whittling glass blowing and tool making
Musical concerts have become a standard fare at the college Earlier this year a musical group called the Emanons from Elon College in North Carolina presented a jazz concert And seniors and graduate students from nearby Florida State University School of Music in Tallahassee often give chamber music recitals
At 10 am every Thursday a Thursday Cultural Hour is held on the campus Sponsored by the Division of Humanities of the college each weekly session has a film a concert or a special lecture by a faculty member This activity is open to the public as well as to students
For one Thursday Cultural Hour scheduled for the 1974 spring quarter Susan D Cooper assistant librarian and instructor in library sciences and English will discuss Max Beerbohm English critic and caricaturist
For another session Dr James R Young assistant professor of history and social science is scheduled to lecture on Social Darwinism
The Thursday Cultural Hour gives the faculty an opportunity to teach something outside their regular schedules noted Dean Dubay
And it also exposes the students to subjects outside their regular class work added President Mobley The Thursday Cultural Hour is part of our efforts to create an intellectual atmosphere for students
Dr Mobley aims to create an intellectual atmosphere outside as well as inside the classrooms of the college
Now on order is a sizable collection of art prints to be hung in the gallery of the academic building
Hanging plants will soon decorate the library Were going to tag each of these plants with their names and backgrounds said Dr Mobley We dont expect students to go deliberately into the library and learn the names of all the plants But we do think theyll notice and examine the plants when theyre in the library for studying or reading
We believe that learning experiences are everywhere
Even the doors to the restrooms in the campus buildings provide learning experiences Signs on the doors give the words for ladies and gentlemen respectively in five foreign languages
Areas History Will be Recorded
Besides generating cultural activities Bainbridge Junior College is recording southwest Georgias cultural history The college has begun collecting material for an archives to be housed in its library
We have started the archives because this area is drastically changing and we want to preserve as much of its heritage as possible while we can explained Dr Mobley
It will be more than an archives in the traditional sense said Dean Dubay In addition to including diaries manu
scripts and letters well have a collection of artifacts such as arrowheads and were going to record an oral history of Bainbridge on tape
The oral history will be told by such southwest Georgia residents as former Georgia Governor Marvin Griffin who lives in Bainbridge
Not too many junior colleges in the nation have an archives Dr Dubay pointed out But we dont think we should be limited because we are a junior college rather than a senior college or university
WITH 6100 VOLUMESas well as slides microfilms and tapesthe college library located in the academic building is a totallearning resource center according to Dean Dubay The library here serves many more purposes than storing books he explained It houses art exhibits Motion pictures are shown here Library personnel write book reviews and a questionandanswer column for the local newspaper
The library and the shorthand laboratories are equipped with sixchannel wireless listening centers so that students may put on special earphones and plug into a variety of recordings ranging from music to lectures In the library you may conduct hardcore research or you may listen to hardrock music commented Dr Dubay
Continued Growth Expected
President Mobley anticipates an enrollment of about 350 students in the 1974 fall quarter The increase over the 1974 spring quarter enrollment of 278 is expected to come primarily from the enrollment of students in the VocationalTechnical Division that will be opened at the college in the 1974 fall quarter
Four or five programs will be offered in this new division according to Dr Mobley who pointed out that the selection of programs is still being considered Were looking into what the community needs and well make our decision on that basis he commented
The vocationaltechnical programs will be offered under an agreement between the Board of RegentsUniversity System of Georgia and the State Board for Vocational Education State Department of Education Each of the two boards will pay a share of the costs of providing the programs
Looking further into the future Dr Mobley predicted that the enrollment will approach 500 students in another three years We re also considering the establishment of continuing education programs in some of the surrounding communities of our service area he added Bainbridge college instructors would teach the classes in the individual communities he explained
Were still in a state of becoming Dr Mobley said And I think thats the nicest state to be in Things are not fixed for us We have no great traditions to hold us down Were very flexible For that reason I hope that in 20 years I can still say Were in a state of becoming

The action was taken following a threehour session of the Board that was called expressly to consider the plan to meet the June 1 deadline set by the US Department of Health Education and Welfare Details of the plan material were reviewed by Associate Vice Chancellor John W Hooper Included in the material was input from members of the Board of Regents from members of the University System Advisory Council and from Chancellor George L Simpson Jr and his staff Copies of working papers of the full document were provided to all members of the Board prior to the meeting
The Department of Health Education and Welfare is under a federal court injunction to institute compliance procedures against the State of Georgia and nine other states which have allegedly failed to desegregate their systems of public higher education according to a statement in the plan working papers considered by the Board The injunction does not direct termination of federal funds to the states nor will any funds be terminated prior to the determination of noncompliance by HEW the statement also indicated
Steps taken pursuant to the federal court injunction were
reviewed in the working papers as follows
HEW on March 27 1973 ordered the Board of Regents to submit a plan for the desegregation of Georgias public institutions of higher education or face a possible cutoff of federal funds On June 11 1973 the Regents filed A Plan for the Further Integration of the University System of Georgia and Individual Plans for Further Integration
On November 10 1973 HEW advised the Board of Regents that its plan revealed significant progress made by the System resolving the problems of eliminating its dual system of higher education However HEW pointed out that the plan did not provide detailed information concerning the basis for the projections and requested the Board to submit a revised plan The Board revised its plan accordingly and resubmitted the same on February 13 1974
Following further discussions with HEW officials in Washington the Department requested certain revisions in the plan to reflect more specific timetables under which the plan might be fully implemented with necessary commitment of individual campuses
The Department of Health Education and Welfare has not rejected any of the plans submitted but has asked only for modifications a statement in the plan working papers emphasized

The System Summary
New Insurance is Authorized As Employee Fringe Benefit
The purchase of liability insurance as a fringe benefit to employees of the University System of Georgia was authorized by the Board of Regents at the July 10 meeting
According to an agenda item for the meeting The Georgia General Assembly in a 1973 Act authorizing Boards of Education to purchase such liability insurance made the following legislative findings
The General Assembly finds that an urgent crisis confronts public education in Georgia Evolving constitutional principles established by recent judicial decisions impose increased burdens upon school administrators and boards of education and subject them to personal liability under judicial doctrines so unsettled as to render it difficult to predict the legality of actions in advance Consequently responsible and competent persons decline to accept appointment and employment with resulting detriment to public administration This crisis has become so grave that immediate relief is essential to quality education and the purchase of protection through liability insurance and contracts of indemnity and the defense of civil and criminal actions at public expense as part of the public compensation paid to such officials and employees offers the only feasible solution Therefore the General Assembly finds that the expenditure of public funds for such purposes in these circumstances is for educational purposes and in furtherance of the support and maintenance of public schools and public education
The purchase of such insurance has no effect on sovereign immunity insofar as the State or the Board of Regents is concerned The Attorney General has approved the purchase of such insurance as a fringe benefit for our employees similar to hospitalization insurance presently provided

EDUCATIONIS FOR EVERYONE
Colleges Enrollees Ages 1768
By CATHY YARBROUGH
Education is for Everyone is the motto of Emanuel County Junior College Swainsboro And this recent addition to the University System of Georgia practices what it preaches
The enrollment at the college a nonresidential twoyear institution which first opened its doors to students one year ago in the 1973 fall quarter runs the gamut from 17yearolds including some students who are pursuing some freshman college work before completing the senior year of high school to a 68yearold who is enrolled in an art course just for the fun of it
Far from being dominated by the 18yearolds and 19yearolds fresh from their high school graduations the enrollment includes a significant number of nontraditional older students George W Walker president of the college points out citing statistics on the age breakdown of the 1974 fall quarter enrollment of 329 students
Nearly 17 percent of the students are 17 years of age and under
More than 37 percent of the students are 18yearolds and 19yearolds the traditional junior college students
More than 14 percent of the students are 20yearolds to 24yearolds many of whom chose to bypass college when they were younger but who now feel they need a college education to improve their job potentials according to Dr Walker
More than 19 percent of the students are 25 years of age to 34 years of age
Nearly 13 percent of the students are 35 years of age and over
The fact that approximately 46 percent of the students are 20 years old or older was emphasized by Dr Walker However Emanuel County Junior College has not initiated any special policies or programs to attract these older students In recruiting and admission procedures the college encourages students of all ages to enroll
Accessibility of College
Its part of a national trend for older students or nontraditional studentsto go to college Dr Walker said But for many people going away to college just isnt feasible And this is often especially true for the people who are not the average age of people in college As a commuting institution located in their community Emanuel County Junior College offers an opportunity for college study to people who wouldnt otherwise have a chance to study any place else
He continued
I believe our essential purpose is to serve the needs of the citizens of the community from the young folks to the senior citizens We should provide educational and cultural opportunities for the whole spectrum of the populationincluding the person who eventually wants to earn a doctoral degree the individual who wants to enter a job field after two years here the local citizen who is already working but who wants to learn some accounting so that he can be a better bookkeeper the student who needs remedial work and the homemaker who wants to expand her cultural horizons by taking an art course
For those who eventually want baccalaureate degreesand perhaps masters degrees and doctoral degrees Emanuel County Junior College has a College Transfer program designed to facilitate the students entry into a senior college or a university
We aim to prepare our College Transfer students to achieve and to reach their higher education goals once they do transfer commented Dr Walker who came to Emanuel County Junior College from a University System senior institutionWest Georgia College Carrollton We arent doing our job if one of our graduates transfers to a senior institution and busts out because he wasnt adequately prepared he added
Tests in English Mathematics
The college regularly assigns students to the Special Studies program based on Scholastic Aptitude Test and Comparative Guidance and Placement Test scores moreover to make sure that graduates of Emanuel County Junior College are adequately prepared the college requires its freshman students to take departmental tests in English and mathematics Low scores on these tests also suggest remedial work often in the colleges Special Studies program
These two disciplines English and math are fundamental Dr Walker declared A person has to be able to read and to work with numbers to achieve in college and in business
The Emanuel County Junior College Special Studies program is part of a University Systemwide effort to develop basic skills in mathematics reading and the language arts
One of our functions is to educate people who are not yet prepared for regular college work Dr Walker said

not college credit to students completing Special Studies courses Students in the Special Studies program at Emanuel County Junior College are involved in that program for an average of two quarters according to Dr Walker
During the colleges first quarter of operation the 1973 fall quarter21 percent of its students were enrolled in the Special Studies program In the 1974 fall quarter 11 percent of the students are taking Special Studies courses
Transfer Career Programs
The college offers 30 majors in its College Transfer program which leads to an associate twoyear degree The majors include agriculture anthropology art biology business administration and economics business education chemistry criminal justice elementary Education English foreign language geology history home economics journalism mathematics political scienceprelaw predental hygiene predentistry premedical illustration premedical technology premedicineprepharmacy prephysical therapy preradiological technology preveterinary medicine psychology recreation physical education secondary Education sociology and speech and drama
The majority of the colleges students are enrolled in one of the College Transfer programs and Education is the most popular major During the 1974 fall quarter 222 students of the 329 students enrolled chose the College Transfer curricula
Dr Walker anticipates that a majorityas much as 80 percent of the colleges College Transfer students will con
tinue their educations at a senior college or a university
For those students who want to learn skills that will enable them to obtain immediate employment after two years ot study the college offers Career programs leading to associate degrees in four fields business administration criminal justice management and secretarial science
Fifteen students of the total enrollment42 studentsin the Career programs during the 1974 fall quarter are enrolled in the criminal justice major field the most popular of the Career degree curricula Unlike many criminal justice programs Dr Walker pointed out ours is not subsidized in any way by the federal Law Enforcement Assistance Program LEAP Only one inservice student is enrolled in the criminal justice major field the other 14 enrollees are preservice students
Two of the Career degree programs business administration and secretarial science are offered in conjunction with the Swainsboro Area VocationalTechnical School
Our goal in the Career degree programs is similar to our aim in the College Transfer programs Dr Walker said We want to prepare our students for whatever futures they choose
For that local citizen referred to by Dr Walker who wanted to learn some accounting so that he could be a better bookkeeper Emanuel County Junior College encourages parttime study in both its College Transfer programs and its Career programs
One of the colleges roles in the community Dr Walker pointed out is making education accessible to people whobecause of jobs andor family responsibilities cant be full time students
Approximately 40 percent of the colleges 1974 fall quarter enrollment132 of 329 studentsis made up of parttime students The majority of the parttime students101 of 132 students are enrolled for just five quarter hours of courses
The workload of a fulltime student as used in the breakdown of enrollment at Emanuel County Junior College in this article is 12 credit hours or more of courses per quarter The workload of an equivalent fulltime student as used for budget purposes at Emanuel County Junior College and throughout the University System is 16 23 credit hours of courses per quarter
Variety of Continuing Education
For that homemaker referred to by Dr Walker who wanted to expand her cultural horizons the college offers a wide variety of continuing education programs ranging from courses on art sculpture tennis Christmas foods and decorations grammar and creative writing to courses on ancient Greece karate income tax preparation reading improvement Bob Dylan and his music and chess
As their titles indicate these programs Dr Walker pointed out appeal to and attract a wide spectrum of the population homemakers high school students senior citizens and men and women in business Many of the continuing education workshops short courses and seminars are designed for specific groups The continuing education short course on pastoral care for instance is aimed at members of the clergy

Everyone Continued from Page 9
and covers such topics as death and grief youth hospital visitation marriage counseling the alcoholic the aged and the Bible
Another continuing education short course titled How Human Behavior is Formed was sponsored by the college at the request of the Division of Family and Children Services of the Georgia Department of Human Resources Attending this special program were 39 representatives of social agencies in Emanuel County
Because the new college was getting its feet off the ground and was housed in temporary facilities only three continuing education courses were conducted during the 1973 fall quarter By the 1974 spring quarter the continuing education programs had been expanded to 18 courses attracting 576 persons For the 1974 fall quarter 12 courses are scheduled
The attendance at the many speeches and lectures as well as at the short courses seminars and workshops presented by the faculty demonstrates Dr Walker pointed out that the colleges continuing education programs have a significant impact on the community
This is Their College
The impact of the continuing education programs upon the community and the area has been significant in terms of the number of people who have been exposed to at least one planned educational experience Dr Walker wrote in the colleges 197374 annual report Through its continuing education and public service programs Emanuel County Junior College is endeavoring not only to provide educational experiences for as many people of all walks of life in the community as possible but also to make them feel that this is their college and that it is there to serve them
The continuing education programs have been especially effective in the introduction of Emanuel County Junior College to its home community Dr Walker said Letting the public know that the new college exists has been an important task and not an easily achieved one he admits for this institution which until the 1974 fall quarter was housed in temporary facilities
The Temporary Quarters
When it opened its doors one year ago Emanuel County Junior College was headquartered in the National Guard Armory in Swainsboro The colleges main classes were held in the Armory the art laboratory and the faculty offices were located in an office building and the library and the biology laboratories were situated in storefront spaces in a hotel
Dr Walker believes that the lack of a permanent campus contributed to the lowerthanexpected enrollment of 167 students during the colleges first quarter of operation In the colleges 197374 annual report he wrote Many were still unaware of our presence did not believe we would open in September 1973 or did not want to go to a college which had no campus or buildings
But during the 1974 winter quarter because the publics awareness of and confidence in the college increased through continuing education programs cultural activities and con

The System Summary
tacts with faculty members and students the enrollment climbed to 194 students By the 1974 fall quarter when the college moved to its 207acre campus which is located east of and partially inside the city limits of Swainsboro the enrollment had reached 329 students almost double the number admitted when the college opened one year ago
The colleges still mainly unlandscaped campus surrounding a small lake which will be used for recreational and physical education activitiescontains five structures administration building student services building classroomlibrary building physical education building and plant operations building
The college was developed under a contract between the Board of Regents of the University System and the Emanuel County Board of Education Under that contract the Emanuel County Board of Education provided to the Regents the campus site and funds for the construction of physical plant facilities required for the opening of the college Voters of Emanuel County approved a bond issue in September 1971 to provide the required funds of 2000000
Important Benefits
Although the initial enrollment was not as high as was anticipated and although the working and teaching conditions were less than ideal the colleges first four quarters in temporary facilities produced important benefits according to Dr Walker
That first year turned out to be a fine experience he reflected An esprit de corps developed between the faculty members and between the faculty and the students then Because we didnt have a student center as we have now both students and faculty members would gather in this gymnasiumlike area of the Armory before between and after classes They got to know each other very well
To further encourage an esprit de corps the new college during its first year initiated a campus newspaper titled The Hoopee Bird and a Student Government Association Other activities such as a spring watermeloncutting a beauty contest a French club and quarterly art exhibits were begun
This years activities are centered around a weekly Wednesday Free Hour at 11 am During this time student clubs and organizations meet and special films and lectures are presented At one Wednesday Free Hour session a rock band performed for the students We want our students to feel that they belong here that this is their campus Dr Walker said
The quarterly art exhibit initiated to acquaint the community with the colleges educational and cultural programs is sponsored by the Student Government Association which purchases the three artworks given top awards The artworks then become a part of the permanent collection displayed throughout the campus
Also framed prints of paintings used in the instruction of art courses appear on most of the walls of the campus buildings
Intellectual Atmosphere
Were trying to establish an intellectual atmosphere which is what were all about said President Walker Im firmly

convinced that weve got to set an example to our students and to other members of the community If we dont have beauty on our campus if we dont take an interest in the intellectual how can we expect our students to appreciate beauty and intellect
Dr Walker a 60yearold native of Canada received the AB degree in English from Alma College in Michigan and the MA degree in English from Wayne State University also in Michigan In 1951 he received the PhD degree in English from the University of North Carolina
A veteran of World War II as an officer in the US Air Force Dr Walker has been a member of the faculties of Wayne State University University of North Carolina Lander College Appalachia State University and West Georgia College
While at West Georgia from 1957 to 1972 he served successively as division chairman dean vice president and acting president
In June 1972 he became president of Emanuel County Junior College one of the newest additions to the 31institution University System of Georgia
Dr Walker refers to his post as president of a new college as a rebirth It is like a chance to begin life anew he explained I know all the mistakes Ive made as dean vice president and acting president of a college and now I have a chance to not make those mistakes again
As head of a new institution he also has the opportunity to transmit his ideas about education into actual programs and
Continued on Page 12
October 1974

Everyone Continued from Page 11 policies I know what kind of institution I want this to be and I have this chance to make it that way because I have a new faculty and a new curriculum to work with he said
The colleges 17 fulltime faculty members are a source of pride for Dr Walker When we were recruiting our faculty we paid no special attention to whether the applicant had a doctoral degree he noted I could have filled the faculty spaces in two weeks with PhDs but that wasnt all I was looking for We wanted people here who could teach and who could get along with students and having a doctoral degree doesnt guarantee either of those abilities
Faculty Teaching Experience
Only one person on the faculty here doesnt have either college teaching experience or high school teaching experience which I consider very important he continued And that one person had internships in college teaching and in high school teaching
The college however does have doctoraldegree holders on its faculty Two faculty members hold this degree and six other faculty members are candidates for the PhD degree So in about two years I estimate well over onehalf of our faculty will have their doctorates Dr Walker added
Besides the two doctoraldegree holders the faculty includes two persons with EdS degrees and 13 persons with masters degrees Selected from 600 applicants the 17 faculty members came from throughout the United States the college president pointed out Ten of the faculty members received their highest degrees from nonGeorgia institutions Two of the faculty members were recruited from other colleges and universities in the University System
The ranks of the faculty members in the 1974 fall quarter are one associate professor nine assistant professors and seven instructors
The faculty members contributions to the local community arent limited to the college campus Dr Walker stressed Virtually every faculty member belongs to a civic club is active in his or her church and gives special programs and lectures at the local public schools added the president who is a member and an elder in the Presbyterian Church of Swainsboro and a member of the local Rotary Club
We try to be very responsive to the community Dr Walker added For instance the initiation of additional educational and cultural programs on the campus will be based largely on community needs he explained
Dr Walker doesnt plan at the present time to expand either the College Transfer programs or the Career programs And I frankly dont see our enrollment ever being very very large here he said On the basis of what the population is now I expect our top enrollment will be 600 students to 800 students One of the advantages of the college is that it is small and is likely to remain small The social advantages of a small college are well known Many students are simply not prepared emotionally to succeed in a student population of 6000 to 20000
Although designed for 500 students the campus can easily accommodate 800 students Dr Walker said
The main hope I have for the future is that it will go as well in the next five years and ten years as it has so far the Emanuel County Junior College president added

THE ADVISORY COUNCIL
The membership of the Advisory Council of the University System of Georgia is made up of the chancellor who is ex officio the presiding officer the vice chancellor and the presidents of all the universities senior colleges and junior colleges
The Advisory Council has the power to make recommendations to the chancellor concerning all educational and administrative matters of concern to the University System It also has the power to create standing and special committees deemed to be needed and to define the duties and functions of each of these committees
All administrative officers faculty members and professional employees of institutions of the University System are eligible to serve on committees of the council
Regular meetings of the council are held no less often than once each quarter and special meetings are held upon calls by the chancellor
The council may recommend changes In Its statutes and bylaws Any change however must be approved by the Board of Regents
The Advisory Council was created by the Board of Regents In 1950 Previously a group of representatives from throughout the University System performed functions similar to those of the present Advisory Council
The present statutes and bylaws of the Advisory Council were revised by a special committee and adopted by the Board of Regents in 1969
Committees Have Advisory Role
The role of members of Academic and Administrative committees of the Advisory Council of the University System of Georgia is defined in the bylaws of the council as follows
The duty of each member of an Academic or Administrative committee is to represent the position of his Institution He is expected therefore to confer with colleagues and appropriate officials at his home institution concerning Issues to be brought before the committee
It should be recognized however that the vote of the institutional representative does not commit the institution since all reports actions or recommendations of committees are advisory in nature only and must ultimately be considered by the Advisory Council where the president of each institution alone is empowered to vote officially on the position of his institution
Should more than one member from an institution attend a meeting of a standing Academic or Administrative committee only one member shall represent the institution on any matter requiring a vote

TWO UNITS AUTHORIZED TO ADD NEW PROGRAMS
A New major program under the Master of Science degree at Fort Valley State College and new career programs under the Associate of Arts Associate of Science and Associate of Applied Science degrees at Atlanta Junior College were approved by the Board of Regents at the December 11 meeting
Fort Valley State College received approval to offer a major in vocational rehabilitation counseling under the existing Master of Science degree program elfective in the 1975 fall quarter
This program is designed to assist students in developing understanding of organizational patterns and administrative structures of vocational rehabilitation centers in acquiring knowledge and skills in assessing and evaluating sociologicalpsychological factors pertaining to each client in developing understanding and appreciation for those physical sociological and psychological factors which can and often do contribute to problems for the individual and in acquiring more extensive knowledge of human behavior the Regents were told in the request for approval of the program
There is a great need for this program in Georgia only two others are in existence in this state at the University of Georgia and at Georgia State University the Regents were told An estimated 400000 Georgians suffer from disabling andor handicapping conditions while only 560 vocational rehabilitation counselors are employed within the state the request for approval indicated
A desegregation impact evaluation indicates that this program will have a beneficial effect in that it is estimated that the enrollment will include a majority of other race students according to agenda material presented to the Regents This program should have no adverse effect on the other two similar programs in the state
Atlanta Junior College received approval to offer career programs under the Associate of Arts degree the Associate of Science degree and the Associate of Applied Science degree All of these programs were authorized to be implemented in the 1975 winter quarter
These programs are designed to prepare students for immediate employment in specific occupational areas
A program to be offered under the Associate of Arts degree is librarymedia assistance
Programs to be offered under the Associate of Science degree

This newest unit of the University System of Georgia draws most of its students from the southwest Atlanta area The unit as President Edwin A Thompson sees it is opening doors to higher education to many area residents who would not attend any other college In addition to offering College Transfer and Career degree programs entirely under its own curriculum the college will offer Career degree programs in cooperation with the Atlanta Area Technical School
Board Details Management Terms For 5 Million from Sale of WGST
President Joseph M Pettit of the Georgia Institute of Technology was authorized by the Board of Regents at the December 11 meeting to execute along with appropriate officials of the Board of Regents management or agency agreements for the investment of the proceeds of the 5 million sale of Radio Station WGST
The agreements will be executed between the Board of Regents and the Citizens and Southern National Bank the Fulton National Bank the Trust Company of Georgia and the First National Bank of Atlanta
The Regents in October 1974 authorized the Georgia Tech president to negotiate management contracts with these four banks with each of the banks being charged with the responsibility of managing onefourth of the proceeds In the October authorization the Regents stipulated that the contracts would be presented for approval of the Board of Regents and the

Regents Meeting January 8
The first regular monthly meeting in 1975 of the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia has been scheduled for January 8 at the Regents office 244 Washington Street SW Atlanta
Board Expands Building Program Advances Three Projects
The Board of Regents at the December 11 meeting added a project to the University System construction program and advanced three previously authorized construction projects
Also at the same meeting the Regents received information on six administrative actions pertaining to previously authorized construction projects
New Project
The new project Physical Plant Shops was authorized for Kennesaw Junior College with a project budget of 309750 William R Tapp Jr Architect and Associates Marietta was tentatively appointed to prepare preliminary plans for this project
The Regents also authorized that the Georgia Education Authority University be requested to insert this project in the Series 1965A Bond Issue Group II
The physical plant administrative offices and shops at Kennesaw Junior College are presently located in the academic area of the campus This new project will be located in the remote northwest corner of the campus alongside a warehouse building which has recently been completed and occupied When the newly approved project is completed recommendations will be made for the present shop buildings to be renovated into academic facilities the Regents were told in an agenda item
Preliminary Plans
Preliminary plans for the Regional Paramedical Center project at Armstrong State College with a project budget of 2112495 were approved
The appointment of Gunn and Meyerhoff Architects Savannah to prepare final plans and specifications for the facility was also approved
This project is designed to provide a twostory steelframe masonry structure containing laboratories for the teaching of nursing physical therapy medical technology dental hygiene and other related paramedical subjects classrooms seminar rooms and faculty offices
The Regents in June 1973 authorized this project with a project budget of 2000000 Preliminary estimates on costs for loose equipment for the project at that time were 150000 With the final development of preliminary plans it is estimated that the loose equipment required to outfit the building will cost approximately 280000 the Regents were told
Project Budget Increase
An increase of 269819 in the project budget of the Main Power Plant Addition project at the University of Georgia to a new total of 679235 was approved
This budget increase was requested following the final estimate of the engineer based upon completed plans and specifications prior to bidding
Loose Equipment Budget Increase
An increase of 25000 in the loose equipment budget of the Fine Arts building project at Armstrong State College to a new total of 99861 was ratified Administrative approval
had been given previously to the increase by Chancellor George L Simpson Jr
On some of the items of loose equipment the Georgia Education Authority University has not been able to get any bids and has authorized the institution to purchase them anywhere they can on a reimbursable basis the Regents were told On some items of loose equipment the Authority has diligently solicited bids and then rebid where excessive bids were received In spite of all these efforts it appears that it will take an increase in the budget of an additional 25000 to purchase the equipment
Information Items
Six items were reported as having been approved administratively by the vice chancellor for construction and physical plant
An increase of 9000 in the line item of the loose equipment budget was approved for the Administration building addition project at Columbus College It provides for the purchase of the originally specified loose equipment for this project
An increase in the project budget of 13000 was approved for the Physical Plant building project at Albany State College It provides for the construction of an outfall storm sewer with backflow preventer through a dike in the Flint River in order to provide storm drainage for the project
A postbid addendum reducing the project budget by 800 was approved for the Classroom building project at Savannah State College It provides for changes in the storm drainage on the site of the project
A postbid addendum of 210 was approved for the Classroom building project at Savannah State College It provides for a change in design of fans for this project
An increase of 12000 in the loose equipment line item of the project budget was approved for the Gymnasium and Pool project at Macon Junior College
A postbid addendum of 950 was approved for the Infirmary project at South Georgia College It provides for a change in electrical switch gear in order to coordinate the equipment in the project with the new electrical distribution system at the college

The System Summary

ATLANTA
JUNIOR
COLLEGEbarrier breaker
The newest unit of the University System of Georgia is Atlanta Junior College located adjacent to the Atlanta Area Technical School in southwest Atlanta
Like other University System junior colleges the new unit offers College Transfer and Career programs leading to the twoyear associate degree Atlanta Junior College will however eventually also provide the most comprehensive cooperative program anywhere in the University System between a System institution and an area vocationaltechnical school
This college an allcommuter institution has an extraordinary opportunityand responsibility to break down geographic economic and academic barriers to higher education Edwin A Thompson president says
The new junior college held its first classes during the 1974 fall quarter with an enrollment of 504 students Most of its programs are being conducted in a new building located just across the parking lot from Atlanta Area Technical School The college building includes classrooms lecture halls laboratories and faculty and staff offices
The junior collegetechnical school complex is located on property fronting on both Stewart Avenue and Interstate
17585 approximately a mile south of Atlanta Stadium
Eightyseven percent of the colleges students440 of the total of 504are blacks
Eightynine percent of the students are drawn from Fulton Countymost of them from the southwest section of Atlanta where the college is located Since there is no other junior college program offered in the highly populated southwest section we will probably continue to draw many of our students from that area President Thompson said
The college is making a concerted effort however to recruit students from a larger commuting area to obtain a more representative student body the president said
The Atlanta Area Technical School with a total enrollment of almost 12000 students is one of the largest in this section of the country Dr Thompson said It has a racially balanced student body approximately 60 percent blacks and 40 percent whites We expect the white enrollment at the college to increase when planned cooperative programs with the Atlanta Area Technical School are activated due to the large

percentage of white students enrolled at the technical school
I am committed to the concept that an integrated environment is an important part of a students learning experience
President Thompson also commented on the relatively high proportion of older students attracted to the college In addition to recent high school graduates there are veterans working people housewives and people who are resuming a college education which was interrupted years earlier he said While the traditional junior college student is an 18yearold or a 19yearold at Atlanta Junior College 65 percent of the students are over 20 years old and 38 percent of them are 25 years old or older he said
Few Transfers from Other Colleges
When Atlanta Junior College was conceived there was a real concern that if a junior college were opened in the heart of the city students would leave other schools and concentrate at the new college Dr Thompson said However although a few students have transferred from nearby colleges most of the students at Atlanta Junior College were not enrolled in college at all before the 1974 fall quarter he said
President Thompson believes that many of the students would not be enrolled in college at all if it were not for the new junior college A twoyear college close to home offers students the opportunity to set shortterm goals as well as longterm goals for their education he said Students are able to begin the higher education process and obtain an associate degree in two years At this point many students may reevaluate their educational goals and continue in a fouryear institution
Before coming to Atlanta Junior College in the spring of 1974 President Thompson spent 25 years working in public schools including 20 years with the City of Atlanta public school system During his quarter of a century in public schools he worked as an elementary teacher high school teacher counselor coach school psychologist principal area superintendent and assistant superintendent Immediately before becoming president of Atlanta Junior College he served as assistant superintendent for personnel of the Atlanta Board of Education for the City of Atlanta public school system
College Transfer and Career Programs
College Transfer programs in 43 major fields currently make up the bulk of the colleges offerings The College Transfer programs are designed for students who wish to pursue baccalaureate degrees at senior colleges or universities after completing a twoyear program at a junior college These programs present the freshman and sophomore courses in major fields ranging from such general liberal arts areas as English history and mathematics to specialized fields such as computer science medical illustration and radiologic technology
After completing his junior college program of 96 academic credit hours the College Transfer student is awarded the Associate of Arts degree or the Associate of Science degree in his major field He then usually transfers into a comparable major field at a fouryear institution The College Transfer programs at Atlanta Junior College are based upon the Uni
versity System Core Curriculum a method of structuring course programs which facilitates the transfer of freshman and sophomore academic credit from any University System institution to any other System institution
Career programs in nine fields are also planned as a part of the colleges curriculum Career programs are designed for preservice students who seek immediate career employment after two years of study and for persons who are already working and wish to upgrade update or extend their education These programs usually are attractive to persons who do not intend to seek a baccalaureate degree
Like the College Transfer programs the Career programs require 96 hours of academic credit All of them require general college work Dougald M Monroe Jr the Atlanta Junior College dean said Career programs however require less general college work than the College Transfer programs in each case substituting instead a number of courses geared toward the specific major career field Each program requires at least 40 credit hours of general college course work
The Career programs olfered by Atlanta Junior College will be concentrated in social sciencerelated fields such as mental health technology penal rehabilitation social services and teacher assistance The teacher assistance program will be one of our big ones Dean Monroe believes We think we will get people already working in this capacity inservice students who want to upgrade themselves
Selected last April as dean of the new college Dr Monroe had previously served in 196973 as dean of academic affairs at Brunswick Junior College Brunswick another unit of the University System Before becoming dean at Atlanta Junior College he was in 197374 academic dean at Southeastern Community College in North Carolina
Atlanta Junior College President Edwin A Thompson formerly was associated with City of Atlanta schools for 20 years
The System Summary
Dean Monroe expects the Career programs to be initiated gradually according to the demand for them beginning in the 1975 winter quarter Well probably have a criminal justice course in the winter quarter and thats probably the only real Career course well have before spring he said
The dean added that he hopes to generate demand for Career courses by recruiting inservice personnel from various social service agencies in the Atlanta area We will probably work with agencies and get a guaranteed enrollment for many of the courses he said
CollegeTechnical School Cooperative Programs
In addition to those Career programs offered entirely by Atlanta Junior College one highlight of the college curriculum will be a set of Career programs offered in cooperation with Atlanta Area Technical School These programs will allow students to learn technical skills while at the same time earning an associate degree Dean Monroe explained As with other Career programs those offered entirely by the college they will be geared toward students who will enter return to or continue fulltime employment after two years of study
Cooperative programs will be offered in 30 fields in which Career programs are currently available at Atlanta Area Technical School These include specialized Career fields such as child development commercial art computer data processing dental laboratory technology electronics food service management industrial drafting and radiotelevision mechanics
A student who chooses one of the cooperative programs will actually be enrolled in both the junior college and the technical school Dean Monroe explained At the end of his twoyear program he will receive an Associate in Applied Science
Beverly Smith Atlanta Junior College freshman checks an experiment in the biology laboratory at the college
degree from the college as well as a certificate from the technical school the dean said
One of the things they are really emphasizing at the technical school is that these programs will help people in the technical fields move into supervisory and management levels Dean Monroe said As 1 see it when a class enters the technical school they will be presented with two possibilities the purely technical program or the cooperative associate degree program The purely technical program will be about two quarters shorter than the twoyear six or more quarters cooperative associate degree program but it will not offer a degree he explained
The cooperative associate degree programs will consist of a combination of 38 to 58 quarter hours of general college work offered by the college and a program of technical training offered by the technical school The college work will consist of basic communications courses mathematics science and social science courses related to the major while the technical courses will be basically the same as those required in nondegree programs at the technical school Dean Monroe said
We have developed a specific curriculum for each of the cooperative programs we plan to offer Dean Monroe said Each one is different The basic model is four quarters of work at the technical school and two more quarters at the college The programs range in length from six to nine quarters
In general the student will take courses from both institutions at the same time although this will not always be the case The required sequence of courses also varies from program to program Some are highly structured while others are very flexible In most of the programs weve tended to put the general college work in near the beginning of the program This way the student will go directly into employment after acquiring technical skills which could get rusty if he waited one or two quarters before using them
Dean Monroe predicts that approximately 200 students will enroll in cooperative programs for the 1975 winter quarter Most of them he believes will be students who are already enrolled in the technical school
Provision of Campus Facilities
Although the cooperative programs between Atlanta Junior College and Atlanta Area Technical School will not get under way until the 1975 winter quarter cooperation in behalf of the two units has been going on ever since the college was in the early planning stage
Atlanta Junior College itself is a cooperative venture between the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia and the Atlanta Board of Education which also operates in addition to the City of Atlanta public elementary and secondary schools the Atlanta Area Technical School In accordance with the provisions of a contract between the two boards the Atlanta Board of Education provided 2000000 for construction of the initial college building plus approximately 49 acres of land for the campus The board of education will later provide an additional 34 acres of land for college facilities The Board of Regents has paid all operating costs

of the college from the beginning and will furnish additional buildings and other physical plant facilities for future expansion of the institution
The Atlanta Area Technical School shares with the junior college a bookstore and a cafeteria as well as some administrative office space In addition the auditorium of the technical school has been temporarily converted into a library shared by the college and the technical school A new library building has been approved by the Board of Regents for the college and when completed will be shared with the technical school President Thompson said In addition to the library an academic building and a central energy plant have been approved for the college by the Board of Regents
A child development center operated by the technical school is also open to children of college students and faculty members
Open Door to the Community
The primary purpose of the new junior college according to President Thompson is to meet many of the educational needs of the community A junior college should be a place where the doors are open to all members of the communityand that is exactly what we are dedicated to accomplishing at Atlanta Junior College he said At Atlanta Junior College we have tried to break down the barriers facing the prospective student
For example there may be a geographic barrier which a student perceives as a block to his educational needs Atlanta Junior College is easily accessible to local transit lines In addition our close proximity to Atlanta Area Technical School allows us to offer a variety of courses in one central location In a commuter college such as this many students are working on a fulltime or parttime basis and must have a source of education that is convenient to them
In addition many students perceive an economic barrier standing in the way of their higher education At Atlanta Junior College we make a major effort to provide financial assistance in the form of scholarships loans or workstudy programs for every student who needs this assistance We presently 1974 fall quarter have almost 50 percent of our students receiving some kind of financial aid
The academic barrier faced by many students however is the primary concern Atlanta Junior College is dedicated to eliminating this barrier the president said
We maintain an open enrollment policy he explained Admission to the college is not restricted by high school grades or scores on the Scholastic Aptitude Test Any person with a high school diploma or its equivalent can enroll in the college if all other admission requirements are met If that student is not fully prepared to begin collegelevel work then through our Special Studies program we concentrate on helping him to become prepared
Extensive Special Studies Program
This Special Studies program which in the 1974 fall quarter included 266 of the schools 504 students is according to Dr Monroe the college dean a central part of the educational
program at Atlanta Junior College The program provides noncredit basic remedial instruction in English mathematics and reading to students who are not prepared to do collegelevel work in any one or more of these fields
Applicants to Atlanta Junior College who score below a cutoff point 650 combined Verbal and Mathematics on the Scholastic Aptitude Test of the College Entrance Examination Board CEEB are required to take the College Guidance and Placement Test a nationally administered achievement test also developed by the CEEB Dean Monroe explained The College Guidance and Placement Test is used to measure the students achievement in the areas of English mathematics and reading Students are required to enroll in a Special Studies course in each area in which the test results indicate they have deficiencies
The 266 students enrolled in the Special Studies program during the 1974 fall quarter included 63 who were taking Special Studies courses in all three areas 122 who were taking two Special Studies courses and 80 who were enrolled for just one Special Studies course A breakdown of the Special Studies enrollment by subjects showed that 172 students were enrolled for remedial English 159 were taking remedial mathematics and 182 were taking remedial reading
The Special Studies courses are based primarily on the selfpace concept whereby a student works at his own rate through a prescribed program Dean Monroe explained The mathematics course however requires the students to work together as a class more than either the English course or the reading course which are oriented more toward individual instruction
Students are allowed three quarters in which to complete each Special Studies course and exit into regular college work To exit a student must complete his Special Studies coursework and must also earn a specified grade on the College Guidance and Placement test Dean Monroe said If a student fails to exit after three quarters in a Special Studies class he may be required to discontinue his present program he added
The Division of Special Studies at the college is headed by Willie H Clemons a former director of the program for parents of exceptional children at the College of DuPage Glen Ellyn Illinois Dr Clemons is responsible for reading instruction and counseling as well as for coordinating the Special Studies program in the three different divisions teaching Special Studies courses In addition Christine W Unger chairperson of the Humanities Division and Ronald L Carlisle chairperson of the Mathematics and Natural Science Division are also specialists in Special Studies instruction
Philosophy and Methods of Programs
Dr Clemons stated The Special Studies program is enhanced by the support services that are available to students These services are tutoring counseling and seminars in personal development
Explaining the philosophy of the Special Studies programs Ms Unger said We are definitely committed to reaching the student by teaching personal development skills as well as academic development skills The student in need of an entire

The System Summary
program of Special Studies requires daily feedback from a person who cares This student not only may lack academic skills but also lacks selfmotivation lacks the ability to set longterm goals for himself frequently has trouble relating to authority and lacks selfawareness of his weaknesses as well as his strengths
We try to give students basic skills whether they plan to enter the College Transfer program or the Career program And we try to provide counseling that will help them make their own decisions as to which course to pursue Our major goal is to help these students take over the responsibility for their own learning
Many types of materials are used to make Special Studies courses more interesting and effective Among these are a reading laboratory which uses filmstrips that move automatically at various speeds to increase reading speed and comprehension booklets cassette recordings language skillbuilding games and highinterest photographs to motivate writing
Were trying to make creative use of what we know about the nature of reading and writing and what we know about how people learn Dean Monroe explained By really making creative use of the resources of the academic communitypsychology mathematics English I believe we can get more students started effectively in regular college work than has been previously thought
One of the problems with noncredit Special Studies is of course motivational Were trying to get these students excited about developing these skills Some rather innovative
things are going on in our Special Studies classes
English is probably the one thats most unusual It is a very multifaceted program The students are taught to think compose write There are a wide variety of individual and group projects going on The students get involved in things theyre interested in I think it is one of the most exciting courses we have on this campus
Although Special Studies courses carry no academic credit a student enrolled in Special Studies may also take regular collegecredit courses in those areas in which he is not deficient Dean Monroe explained Even if a student is deficient in all three areas English mathematics and reading he may take credit courses in art music drama speech and foreign language he added Were doing everything we can to integrate these students fully into the student body he said Were trying to guide them into the mainstream of college life
All University System institutions are required by the Board of Regents to provide a Special Studies program The Special Studies program at Atlanta Junior College is one of the most comprehensive of such programs in the System
President Thompson explained why Atlanta Junior College places so much emphasis on its Special Studies program If we are in fact a community school and if we are going to serve all the people he said then I think we must recognize that all students who come to us are not necessarily ready to function on the college level It is our responsibility to provide in as many ways as possible whatever is necessary to bring

Profile of Student BodyAtlanta Junior College
Even though Atlanta Junior College did not recruit any students before June 1974 applications for the 1974 fall quarter were received from more than 1000 persons 504 of whom were actually enrolled for that quarter
More than 200 applications had already been received by midDecember for additional admissions for the 1975 fall quarter and President Thompson predicts that enrollment for that quarter will exceed 1500 students
Of the 504 students attending the college during the 1974 fall quarter 351 each were enrolled for credit of 12 hours or more the other 153 students were enrolled for credit ranging from 5 quarter hours through 11 quarter hours
The students ages ranged from 17 to 58 The breakdown by ages was 45 percent between 17 and 20 17 percent between 21 and 24 23 percent between 25 and 30 and 15 percent over 30
Fall quarter enrollment included 440 blacks 63 whites and one oriental 258 men and 246 women 146 married students 118 veterans and 197 freshmen 21
sophomores 20 transients and 266 students in the Special Studies program consisting of precollegelevel remedial courses in English reading and mathematics
Approximately 50 percent of the students were receiving some type of financial assistance including veterans benefits scholarships loans and workstudy funds
All but 20 of the students were from Georgia and the vast majority of the total number enrolled came from the southwest Atlanta area in which the college is located The breakdown by counties of the Georgians was Fulton County 452 DeKalb County 17 Cobb County 8 Douglas County 2 Clayton County 2 Butts County 1 Coweta County 1 and Rockdale County 1
The other states and the numbers of students were Ohio 3 Illinois 3 Michigan 2 North Carolina 2 South Carolina 2 Alabama 1 New Jersey 1 and Tennessee 1

Qualifications of Faculty Members
Because Special Studies is such an integral part of Atlanta Junior College even the faculty was selected especially with this program in mind When the faculty members were chosen for the college they were selected not only for their ability to teach advanced courses but also for their ability to teach Special Studies courses Dean Monroe said When we hired the faculty members we emphasized qualities which would make them effective teachers of students who are lacking in selfconfidence selfconcept and basic academic skills
Faculty members who would be both interested in and sympathetic to students with special needs were chosen President Thompson said adding We wanted people who were sensitive to the need of the students people who had the experience the skills and the patience required to work with all students to smooth the rough edges and to fill in the gaps In selecting a faculty we were looking for people who were flexible and who wanted to teach We hired the person who was studentoriented rather than researchoriented We are primarily a teaching institution
The faculty is made up almost equally of blacks and whites and also approximately equally of men and women Dr Thompson said
Highest degrees earned by the 23 fulltime faculty members are the doctorate for 5 the masters for 15 and the bachelors for 3 For these faculty positions the college received more than 1000 applications the president said
Our staff is comparatively young but they are experienced the president added Twelve of the 23 fulltime faculty members are under 30 years old Seventeen of them taught previously in college and the rest of them taught previously in high school
Because of his 20 years of experience in the Atlanta public schools Dr Thompson says he is among many familiar faces at Atlanta Junior College Many of our students graduated from Atlanta city high schools three four five or even ten years ago he said Many are my former students or younger brothers and sisters of my former students
Extracurricular Activities
Although the college is new the students there have already begun to organize and develop extracurricular activities
A student government association has been organized and the student body recently elected the colleges first student government officers according to Charles F Easley director of student services
A group of students has also enlisted the help of the English Department and the communications classes at the college and has begun the development of a school newspaper Mr Easley said
Other student activities already under way are a college choir a music club and a veterans club A business club and a coeducational intramural athletic program are scheduled to begin in the 1975 winter quarter
Atlanta Junior College makes a special effort to serve evening and parttime students who may have a wider variety of needs than the fulltime day student who has recently graduated from high school President Thompson said
In addition to daytime classes the colleges offerings include regular courses scheduled in the late afternoons and evenings so students may earn a degree during these hours if they need to he said We try to schedule courses that are needed during these times The college is open from 8 am to 10 pm Monday through Friday During the colleges first quarter of operation 200 of its 504 students were enrolled in the evening classes
We make it convenient for students with cars to park on campus so they can move without delay between their education and their jobs the president said We also have childcare services available to us through the Atlanta Area Technical School Many of our students are adults with families and we believe they should have a place to leave their children while they pursue an education
It is possible that Atlanta Junior College may in the future supplement its oncampus programs by offering extension courses at other places in the community Wed like to have as many students as possible involved on the campus President Thompson said but if there comes a time when the need is greater than can be met by campus facilities then we will have to hold classes somewhere else We know there are some public school classrooms available at night where classes could be held
Public Services for Community Residents
A public service program of nondegree courses is also being organized for residents of the community In this program the college will offer noncredit courses seminars workshops and conferences to meet identified needs in the community Leatrice T Bell director of extension and public service says this program will make it possible for people to explore ideas and subjects that interest them on an informal basis and apart from the regular academic program
The voluminous amount of materials being published these days in every conceivable profession makes a course in rapid reading quite desirable for hundreds of people she said and now that inflation has set in knowing how to file ones own income tax reports has gained added significance These are examples of areas in which our Public Service Division expects to serve community residents
Our programs will run the gamut of aesthetics and personal improvement to zoological brushup courses for professional improvement according to the needs indicated in the community When feasible we will take programs into the communityusing churches schools libraries and apartment clubhouses
This approach to public service development is in keeping with President Thompsons philosophy that learning is a continuous process that should be made available to everyone
The college is committed to use the resources of higher education to provide courses and programs that will enrich the lives of the people it serves and improve their capacity to function creatively in society the president said
