Thursday, October 16,1969 WESTERN CAROLINIAN Page 3 Dr. Ronald North Named Center Head Dr. Ronald M. North has been named to head a 28-county Economic Development Center at Western Carolina University. It was announced today by Dr. Alex S. Pow, president of the University. The Center was established in June and is funded by an Economic Development Administration grant to the University, and by a matching state appropriation. Dr. North is a prominent economist in thfe field of water re- sources economics. Since 1963 he has been associated with the University of Georgia Depart" ment of Agricultural Economics in Athens. At Western Carolina University, he will head a staff of specialists whose efforts will be directed toward the improve- ment of job opportunities in the Appalachian region of North Carolina, reaching from Alleghany County on the Virginia border to Cherokee County on the Georgia-Tennessee border. The service region also includes western Piedmont counties and the Cherokee Indian Reservation. First S.A.M. Meeting To Be Monday The first meeting of the Western Carolina University Chapter of the Society for Advancement of Management was held Monday evening, October 13. Danny Jones, President, welcomed faculty, SAM members, and visitors. Mr. Jay Kneedler, faculty advisor, and this year's officers-Vice President, Steve Hodges; Secretary, Phil Mc- Brayer; Treasurer, Gordon Yopp-were introduced. In a brief presentation Danny Jones outlined the three main objectives of SAM. The first objective is to bring closer together executives in business and students preparing to go into business. The second objective is to serve as an effective medium for the exchange and distribution of information on the problems, policies, and methods of industry and management The third objective of SAM is to provide students with the opportunity to participate in the organizing, planning, directing, and controlling of the activities of an organization dedicated to the promotion and advancement of the art and science of management Guest speakers included Dr. Drewry, Dean of the School of Business, and Mr. R. E. Nel= son, professor of economics. Dr. Drewry expressed his enthusiasm and encouragement of SAM's activities. He also stated that there are many factors involved in becoming a great university and through organizations such as SAM, we are one step closer. Mr. Nelson spoke on what he considered to be twelve important guidelines for success. Mr. Nelson's characteristic "wit and wisdom" was well received by all. As president of SAM, Danny Jones encourages all business majors on the sophomore, junior, and senior levels to join and participate in this national organization. Membership application forms can be obtained from the business placement office. In announcing the appointment, Dr. Pow said the full resources of the School of Business and those of the entire university will support the activities <if the center in its efforts to further the economic development of the western third of the state. The Center will provide technical and management assistance to new and expanding industries, and to local communities. It will assist efforts to form new industries and will supply regional infor - mational services through data storage systems. The Center will work closely with other agencies and communities in solving problems blocking economic growth. A native of Stockton, tjeorgia, Dr. North received the bachelor of science degree with honors from Clem son University, the Master's degree from Cornell University, and the Ph. D, degree from Clemson. He studied at Cornell under a Danforth Foundation graduate fellowship. North's research and writ ings have included studies of agriculture and agribusiness in the central Savannah River area Max Williams Returns To WCU DR. RONALD M. NORTH of Georgia, and studies in vegetable marketing, cotton production, soybean marketing, and commodities markets. .He is well known for his research activities in the field of water resources economics, including the demands for water, rate structures, financing municipal water systems, pollution control, public investments, benefit ci it analyses, and planning ■ programming-budgeting systems A former U. S. Air Force lieutenant and pilot, Dr. North holds the rank of major in the U. S. Air Force Reserve. He was commander of the Athens area Civil Air Patrol before moving to North Carolina. Dr. Max R. WUliams, chairman of the Department of Social Sciences at Western Carolina University, has returned to WCU after a leave of absence during the 1968-69 academic year. Dr. Williams was a fellow in a cooperative program of study of the humanities, operated jointly by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Duke University, Durham, In the program, faculty members from colleges and universities in the Carolinas and Virginia are given an opportunity to do research on a full time basis. Fellows of the program, funded by the Ford Foundation, are given faculty status at Duke anH livr-CH, but have no teaching responsibilities. Dr, Williams was involved in editing the papers of William A. Graham, a 19th cen- papers, formerly edited by J. G. de Roulhac Hamilton, tury North Carolina politician and governor, for publication b y the North Carolina State Department of Archives and History. Williams edited the first four volumes of Graham's and is in the process of editing four more, He also plans to write a biography of Graham. The purpose of the program is to make materials available to scholars all over the country. Since his return to WCU and the Department of Social Sciences, Dr. Williams has seen encouraging developments in all four areas of the social sciences, Among these are the establishment of an independent political science department and an independent sociology department The social welfare program has been expanded with the aid of a grant to WCU by the State Department of Welfare, There has been an improvement in the quality of the faculty of the History department "Things seem to be busy, and there seem to be improvement s in many areas. I'm very hopeful about the future of the institution," stated Williams, 70 Nova MARK OF EXCELLENCE Less filling This not-too-small car is big enough for you and your friends. And your luggage. Yet, this same not-too-large car is small enough for a budget. Even a frugal one. You have three standard engine choices. Four. Six. Or V8. Depends on how tnrifty you want to be. More filling Nova comes one of two ways: Coupe or Sedan. From there, your Chevrolet dealer can help you put together any kind of Nova you want. But plan on more friends. And fewer fuel stops. Putting you first, keeps us first. On The Move.
