THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

Dear Students and Friends:

The 1986 "Tiger" is a permanent record of the high-
lights and achievements that took place at Savannah State
College during this academic year. This yearbook will be
important to you, especially in later years, because it
will transcend time and space in regard to some of your
most precious memories and achievements. This document
is also concerned with the present. It represents events,
organizations, activities, sororities, fraternities and
other events that were special to you during this year.
It is my fondest wish that you will cherish and appre-
ciate those wonderful days spent at Savannah State
that the 1986 "Tiger" will permanently record for pos-
terity.

Sincerely ,

Wendell G. Rayb/i/rn
President

Letter from YOUR S.G.A. PRESIDENT

Room 208

King Frezicr Student (enter

May 2, 1986 <912) 356-2505

Dear Students,

I would like to thank you for your votes and support and the confidence
you had in me during my terms in office as your Student Government
Association President.

It has been indeed an enriching and rewarding experience serving as your
S.G.A. President. I sincerely hope that the goals and objectives we have
yet to achieve, will still be achieved by future Student Government Leaders.

Even though we did not accomplish a II of our goals the facts remain that
we did accomplish many of our goals.

"The tragedy of life is often not in our failure, but rather
in our complacency; not in our doing too much, but rather in
our doing too little; not in our living above our ability, but
rather in our living below our capaci t it ies. "

I would like to share my learning experience briefly with future and
prospective S.G.A. Leaders, excerpts from Paradoxical Commandments of
Leadersh i p.

1 . If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives.
Do Good Anyway!

2. If you are successful, you win false friends and true enemies. Succeed
Anyway !

3. The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow. Do Good Anyway I

4. Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable. Be Honest And Frank Anyway !

5. What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight. Bui I d Anyway !

6. Give the "Students" the best you have and you' I I get kicked in the teeth.
Give the "Students" the best you have anyway!

You'll find that there is no such thing as Going Through .... (Organizations/
S.G.A.) Just for fun. It's seldom fun. It's tiring, ridiculously nerve
wracking, demoralizing, and seemingly impossible. You've got to be deeply
committed to students. All of them, not just the ones who are nice to you....
In order to go through with it.

Good luck in the future and I wish each of you much success In your
endeavors.

Last but not least, "Remember, If you don't follow your dreams, you will
never know what's on the other side of your rainbow."

Si ncere ly ,

STUDENT PUBLICATION

Greetings:

Fellow students and all others that have had the the priviler ge of
viewing an annual for the 1985-86 school year.

I hope that you have enjoyed the glorious pages of this year's annual.
I enjoyed putting the book together. However, I experienced one of the
most prevalent problems here at Savannah State College - STUDENT APATHY.

As you turned the pages, did you stop to think about the amount of
time and effort that goes into the creation of OUR yearbook? Chances are
some of you probably did not. You as S.S.C. students had better start
thinking. The annual is supposed to be a STUDENT PUBLICATION. Student as
in the student body not student as in individual (s) . Yet , the major-
ity of the student body wants a yearbook and want it on time.

In closing, I would like to say that you as students should get in-
volved, because this could very well be OUR last yearbook.

Very truly yours,
Valerie M. Andrews
Editor-in-Chief
