Not only is he an excellent educator and a dynamic leader, he is our mentor and our friend. Mr. 
Otis Johnson has given unselfishly of himself for the perpetuation of Savannah State College. 
Words are so inadequate to express the love and appreciation therefore we, the Tiger Staff, dedi- 
cate the 1979 TIGER to Mr. Otis Johnson for unyielding dedication. 



26 




Dr. Thelma Harmond did not create the education department but, because of her intense dedica- 
tion and sheer determination, it has evolved into a dynamic force at Savannah State" . . . like a 
mother bending over her baby . . .", Dr. Harmond has nursed the education department to its 
present state of maturity. We, the Tiger Staff, dedicate the 1979 TIGER to Dr. Thelma Harmond 
for a job more than well done but a job done excellently.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE 



I should like to take this opportunity to express congratulations 
on behalf of the entire Savannah State College Family to the Editor, 
Staff, and Advisors of the 1979 Edition of the "Tiger. " This publica- 
tion has demanded much time and sincere effort on your part, and all of 
us are grateful to you for your dedicated and conscientious service. 

To those of you who are departing, I consider it a great honor 
and privilege to extend to you hearty congratulations upon your graduation 
from Savannah State College, You are completing your work in a time of 
many social, economical and technological changes which are taking place 
at an amazing rate. These changes, which we face, place upon the shoulders 
of educated men and women great responsibilities which cannot be ignored 
or shirked. The college-trained person is expected to take the lead in 
helping to lift the masses of people to higher levels of social responsi- 
bility, political freedom, healthful living, and economic betterment. Vie 
hope that the training which you have received during the years at this 
institution will enable you to make a lasting contribution towards the 
achievement of these goals. 

May this Yearbook provide you with a permanent and loving record 
of your contributions to the great history of Savannah State College, 
and may it serve always as a means of keeping alive in your hearts and 
minds the love and loyalty which you have for your Alma Mater. 

Wherever you go and whatever you do, always remember that you 
carry with you the best wishes of the entire Savannah State College 
Family for your happiness and success. As you go forth from the College,

are, in general, consistent with the overall philosophy of the college. 
Specifically, the Division accepts the responsibility to help students: 

1. To gain basic preparation, knowledge and skills necessary to 
the satisfaction of their personal needs as well as the needs of home 
and society. 

2. To acquire specialized training in one of the Natural Sciences, 
and to develop individual talents and intellectual curiosity which are 
essential to further study and progress. 

3. To develop an understanding of mental, emotional, and 
physical health, and to practice habits that are conducive to sound

TO THE SSC FAMILY 

The 1979 TIGER has experienced a very trying school year; everthing 
seem to have gone wrong  from the desegregation plan to the 1979 edition 
of the TIGER. I am very sorry to say that due to limited funding we 
could not produce all of our sections this year; however, we have tried 
to do the best job that we could under the circumstances. I would, 
also, like to apologize to our athletic department for not having the 

funds needed to cover our many fun-filled sporting events, but I am 
looking forward to a budget next year that will be appropriate 
to our needs here at SAVANNAH STATE COLLEGE. Please, as you turn through 
this sports section, do not think of it as a reproduction or duplicate of 
the 1978 TIGER but rather a continuation of the greatness of last year's 
athletes. 

Thanks very much for your cooperation. 

Sincerely, 



The 1979 TIGER STAFF 

T. WjLlliams, Jr. Editor-in-Chief 



SSC Scenes From

Head Football Coach 
Frank Ellis 



After serving as an assistant for so long, young Frank Ellis is now head Tiger mentor 
that put SSC back on the football map. 

Ellis played football and basketball for Johnson High and later for Savannah State. He 
played quarterback for SSC, and his knowledge will really help the quarterbacks. 

Ellis's enthusiasm rubbed off on his players. The 1977 season is ancient history to him, 
as he envisions the Tigers embarking upon a new era, winning more than last year. 

He did a lot of recruiting in '77 after getting the job for '78 has signed 15 men. All were 
outstanding players in high school and Ellis hopes this carries over into college ball. Ellis 
isn't making any predictions.

Student Publications 

S.S.C. NOW, THEN, AND FOREVER is really appropriate for this year's edition of the 
TIGER, for this may very well be the last year for Savannah State College as it presently 
exists. Next year we will lose our Division of Education to Armstrong State College, 
which is one of the best in the South, if not "THE BEST" and our Division of Business 
Administration will join with Armstrong's Division and become united as a School of 
Business located on SCC's campus. To the Students, Faculty, and staff of Savannah State 
College, as you look or have looked through this publication think again about what these 
pictures and words represent and then start from page one again and obtain the true 
meaning of our theme: SSC NOW, THEN AND FOREVER-KEEP IT BEAUTIFUL. 
I hope that on the second "'go-round" you will be able to understand what it means for 
a Black College to survive today. 

I would like to thank God for letting me be a part of this historic school; special thanks is 
also given to the many students and faculty members who have expressed their interest in 
this publication. 

I would also like to say on a final note, that, all students who will be matriculating as 
Savannah State College for the 1979-80 school year to please feel free to exercise your 
rights and privileges as a student and put forth more effort to see to it that changes are 
made when needed. 

Sincerely yours, 



Tommy Williams, Jr. 
Editor-in-Chief 79 TIGER 







<zMadociat& Editor 



272 



To capture Savannah State College in all of her majestical splendor was my goal for 
the 1979 TIGER. I sincerely hope that I have been successful in attaining that goal. 

This book is the culmination of hours of hard-work, incessant determination, and 
unyielding love. A dedicated staff, who freely gave up their Saturdays, is to be commended 
for a job well-done. 

As always, there is one person who does his job and the job of everyone else. In our 
case, that special person is our editor, Tommy Williams, Jr. Through his patience, 
kindness, understanding, and knowledge, you see before you the 79 TIGER. Without 
Tommy Williams there would be no TIGER! 

And last but not least, I wish to extend my heartfelt gratitude to the teachers, the 
staff, and the students, for without you there would be no Savannah State College. It is 
because of you and others like you that Savannah State existed then, exists now and will 
exist forever! 

Sincerely, 



A^J^AA dtiMMl t/md

OCTOBER 1978 



r the years, our Black 
Jges have paid the price to 
j alive," Scott expressed 
iestly. He also emphasized 
struggle of Black people in 
1960's; how it was a time of 
s, sit-ins and the emergence 
01 ivlartin Luther King, Jr., and 
Malcolm X as two of the great 
spokesmen for the Black Revo- 
lution. Scott explained that the 
central issue then was race and 
violence, but now in obtaining a 
clearer focus we have come 
from fighting for "civil rights to 
political rights." 

Rep. Scott addres sed the 



walk around or party around 
thinking that everything is 
much better today - because it 
is not.! 

According to Rep. Scott, 
there is a new racism on the 
rise in today's society: 25 years 
ago racism was visible, but 
today it is even more vicious 
because it is invisible. 

"The survival of Black col- 
leges is at the crossroads," 
Scott stated. He alluded to the 
idea of a pendulum swinging ir 
this country. "The conserva 
tive, reactionary, discrimina 
to rv pendu lum in this countrj 
is steam. It's swing 
;'s swinging fast, it's 
low; the blade is 
we all might have tc 
survival of Black 
s yet to come art 
on the generation 
and me!" 

tt left us with much 
K>ut. He did well ir 
is grandfather once 
b on how to give a 
ch-make it like a 
skirt should be... 
jugh to cover tlu 
it short enough tc 
resting!" 

; all remember what 
t told us: "Every 
has its challenge- 
ye yours". 

I of you unity, peace 
e vibrations.

Savannah State College is on 
the move! This was only one of 
the many expressions used to 
describe the impression many 
received from Expo '78. Savan- 
nah State College's "Expo 78" 
was held on September 23 and 
was a total success. Planned 
and coordinated by the Student 
Government Association and 
other interested students, pre- 
parations for Expo '78 began in 
early July. Mr. Bobby Adams 
and Mr. Dan Robertson assist- 
ed the students in coordinating 
this first time ever event! 

There were a number of 
community awareness pro- 
grams that participated in 



Check, oavauimii rouce de- 
partment, Georgia Department 
of Public Safety, NAACP, the 
Young Democrats of America, 
the U. S. Army and many other 
groups gave their full support 
to make Expo an interesting, 
educational, and informative 
day- 
There was also fun and 
games for the crowds present. 
There were sport events such 
as the four-mile run, volleyball, 
tug-of-war, dodge ball, table 
tennis, sacks races, and frisbee 
throwing contests. Checkers, 
backgammon, and chess tourna-

nursery's playground. 

The students of SSC and 
people of the community were 
entertained by several bands 
throughout the day. The 24th 
Infantry Division Band from 
Hunter Army Airfield opened 
Expo with a variety of musical 
sounds. Chocolate Snow, Bro- 
thers Funk and the Zodiac 
Players all added to the festivit- 
ies with their musical talents. 
Brother Monday also assisted 
in giving Expo rhythm by 
laying down some very hot 
wax. 



Many groups were barbequ 
ing, selling hotdogs or candiec 
apples. And there were free 
sodas provided by the Coca 
Cola Bottling Company anc 
there was a free crab boiL 

The Student Government 
Association would like to thank 
everyone who made Saturday, 
September 23rd such an explo- 
sive event. Most deserving oi 
praise are the students thai 
served on the committees and 
those who helped supervise the 
events. To the SGA27lipep up 
the good work. 

There is hope that such an 
event will occur again; there-
