1 History Through The Eyes Of An Itinerant Photographer Careers In The Classroom Page 12-13 Page 10 The McDowell Sun A Campus Newspaper of McDowell Technical Community College Shining a Little Light on Our Corner of the World College Receives $1.1 M+ By Michael Lavender Director of External Relations A new Duke Energy Grant in the amount of $219,000 will help fund state-of-the-art welding equipment for a planned expansion of the program’s facilities, says Dr. Bryan W. Wilson, MTCC President. “We have also been notified,” said Wilson, “that we have been selected to receive a facilities grant in the amount of $900,000 from the North Carolina Community College System Office, funded by the North Carolina Legislature, which will allow us to renovate and upgrade portions of campus and expand facilities for the welding program.” “We are tickled to death to be so fortunate as to receive both of these grants,” he said. “They go together like a hand and glove.” The facilities expansion portion of the state grant will allow the college to design a larger and more efficient space for welding July 8, 2008 by Michael Lavender Director of External Relations The journey towards enlightenment has been a curiously winding path for Joy Przestwor, Business Instructor at McDowell Technical Community College. Just over forty years ago, Joy was an inquisitive young high school graduate completing her first year as a Novice, marking the halfway point in her quest to become Sister Joy, a Roman Catholic nun in the Adrian Dominican tradition. Upon accepting her vows the following year, Przestwor spent the next two decades studying, teaching parochial school, coaching, and most of all, asking questions and challenging convention. And it was in those challenges that she was seen at times as a disobedient and some- programs, which will move to the Small Business Incubator Facility on the south side of campus below the Forest Service Property. The renovation and expansion accounts for about 30 percent of the total grant dollars, with the remaining portions being allocated to a cafeteria expansion (40 percent) and various renovation and expansion projects across campus (30 percent). These renovations/expansions include bringing facilities into compliance with ADA (American’s With Disabilities Act) code, increasing restroom capacity in most older buildings, adding sidewalks and electronic doors in select locations and related projects. Due to state construction regulations, the cafeteria expansion will require selection of an architect, followed by design work, plan approval Continued on page 8 See Related Stories: Page 15 Grants during fiscal year 2007-2008 Harold Smith Foundation Funds Maintenance Facility More About The Duke Energy Grants Continued on page 4 Garrison Named New VP By Michael Lavender Director of External Relations The McDowell Technical Community College Board of Trustees recently named Mr. Ryan Garrison of Morganton as the college’s new Vice-President for Finance and Administration. Garrison succeeds Interim Vice-President Ray McKesson and Dr. Dirk Wilmoth, who left the college in May to accept a new position as Vice-President at Emory and Henry College in Emory, Virginia. Garrison most recently served as Business Manager of Catawba Valley Community College in Hickory, NC since October, 2003. He was responsible for Accounts Payable/ Receivable, Payroll, Purchasing, and worked closely with the CVCC President on budgets, construction projects, insurance needs and a host of related activities. Prior to 2003, Garrison had worked as a finance and compliance auditor with the NC State Auditor’s Office and as a staff accountant with Lowdermilk, Church and Company, LLP in Morganton. “We are pleased to welcome Ryan to our administrative staff. He comes highly recommended and brings a wealth of experience in community college business affairs,” said Dr. Bryan W. Wilson, MTCC President. “With the depth and breadth of accountability at the state level, it was a necessity for us to get someone in here who is well-versed in community college Reiki On Main Street Photo by John Rountree Photography Instructor By Peggy Rowe Special to The McDowell Sun business office regulations. Mr. Garrison has all that and more.” Garrison holds a B.A. in Economics from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, a B.S. in Accounting from Appalachian State University and will complete his Master’s Degree in Higher Education Administration from Appalachian State University in December of this year. Outside of the office, Ryan enjoys coaching Upward Basketball, and he is a Deacon at Burkemont Baptist Church in Morganton, where he and his wife Emily are members. He has also served on Burkemont’s Finance Committee. Garrison has two daughters, Adair, age 4, and Chloe, age 1. Davis To Serve On College Board By Michael Lavender Director of External Relations Mrs. Sylvia Davis of Marion has been appointed by the McDowell County School Board to fill a vacancy created by the resignation of Mr. Larry Miller from the MTCC Board of Trustees. Davis will complete the term Mr. Miller had started, which will conclude on June 30, 2011. No stranger to education, Mrs. Davis retired in 2005 from McDowell County Schools, where she had served as a guidance counselor and teacher, primarily at Marion Elementary School. She holds a Bachelor’s Degree from Winthrop College and a Master’s Degree in Education from the University of Montevallo in Alabama. Although she is retired, Davis is now working two days per week at McDowell High School and is an active volunteer with United Way of McDowell County. She also serves on the Permanency Planning Board for foster children through McDowell County Department of Social Services, and is a Deacon at First Baptist Church in Marion, where she is also a member. She previously served as a volunteer with Boy Scouts of America. Davis and her husband, the late Rev. Bob Davis, have two sons, John and Robert, who live in Atlanta and Marion, respectively. Photo by John Rountree Photography Instructor Open Hands Natural Healing Clinic is offering people in McDowell County easy access to a Japanese healing art called Reiki (ray-key), known to speed the healing and recovery process from illness and help maintain good health. Reiki Master-Teacher practitioners Paul Hamwey, former MTCC student and Carol Martinez, MTCC graduate and previous adjunct instructor, are the owners of a new wellness center at 76 S. Main St., and they are enthusiastic about bringing this popular art of complementary healing to the area. Though there are more than 100,000 practitioners across the country, there is still some misunderstanding regarding the Reiki practice. The most frequently asked question, Martinez explains, is “What is Reiki?” “Often confused with massage therapy, Reiki is a Japanese word meaning ‘universal life energy’ and involves a hands-on technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. “Reiki is based on the idea that unseen life-force energy flows through each person. If this energy is low then we are more likely to get sick or feel stressed, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy,” Martinez states. When receiving Reiki, the client remains fully clothed. “We don’t even have to put our hands directly on the client if they prefer not to be touched. It still works; it still helps; it still promotes healing,” Hamwey explains. Working in conjunction with traditional medicine, Reiki promotes natural self-healing, balances energies in the body, strengthens the immune system, clears toxins and facilitates the effectiveness of traditional treatments. Often Reiki is used simply to maintain wellness. People use Reiki to relieve pain, stress and anxiety quickly, though chronic illnesses may take a series of treatments to reach the desired effect. An additional bonus is it’s something people can learn to do for themselves which both owners encourage and hold classes to facilitate.

RHIT Credential= Value-Added Employee What does it mean to earn and maintain a Health Information Management credential? Credentialed Health Information Management (HIM) professionals, certification speaks to an individual’s successful completion of a rigorous academic program and dedication to a lifetime of professional growth and continuing education. Earning a HIM credential means that you have earned a unique credential in the field of managing health information and have proven your competency for a career in health information management. But not everyone is aware of what goes into acquiring a credential, and more importantly, not everyone realizes what an asset an AHIMA credentialed individual can be. The following are Frequently Asked Questions-Talking Points taken from the AHIMA website. Individuals who are currently enrolled in the HIM program or those who may become enrolled in a HIM program can use these questions on job interviews, to inform colleagues, family and friends of what you do and why your credential is a virtual guarantee of professional quality. Individuals can also use these FAQs to educate interested parties on just how important your credential is to your success in career, family life and in your community, as well as the HIM industry. FAQs - Talking Points Q: What does the Registered Health I n f o r m a t i o n Te c h n i c i a n ( R H I T ) d o ? A: RHITs are health information technicians who work to ensure the quality of health records and health care data by verifying their completeness, accuracy, and proper entry into computer systems. They use computer applications to assemble and analyze patient data to improve patient care and control healthcare costs. In addition, RHITs may specialize in coding diagnoses and procedures in patient records for reimbursement and research or they may supervise coding or other clinical data management functions. Q: What kind of positions do RHITs hold? A: In AHIMA’s recent membership survey, the majority of RHIT respondents held job titles in one of the following categories: coding/technician or manager/supervisor. With experience, the RHIT credential holds solid potential for advancement to management positions, especially if it is combined with a bachelor’s degree. As patient records evolve toward computerization and as more entities such as third-party payers require health data, RHITs benefit from a wide selection of roles in the industry. HIM professionals as a whole currently hold 125 different job titles in 40 different work settings. Q: How many people are currently certified at the RHIT level? A: AHIMA has over 18,000 RHIT-credentialed individuals working in the healthcare industry. Medical records and health information technicians is one of the fastest growing occupations, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The agency expects a 49% growth in jobs in this field between 2000 and 2010. Q : W h e r e d o R H I Ts w o r k ? A: Although most RHITs work in hospitals, you will also find them in a variety of other healthcare settings including office-based physician practices, nursing homes, home health agencies, mental health facilities, and public health agencies and private corporations. In fact employment opportunities exist for RHITs in any organization that uses patient data or health information such as pharmaceutical companies, law and insurance firms, and health product vendors. Q: Why is having an RHIT on your staff important? A: The access and quality of health information affects the quality of patient care and effective healthcare management. Accordingly, the RHIT credential demonstrates a broad understanding of health data and its many uses. The credential proves tested data quality and integrity skills. The RHIT certification also demonstrates technical coding expertise in addition to an By Valerie Dobson, MHS, RHIA Coordinator, Health Information Technology Program array of skills needed in today’s health information management areas. Q : W h a t m a ke s c e r t i f i c a t i o n f ro m t h e American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA) special? Don’t other organizations offer similar certification? A: AHIMA is currently the only certification body for Health Information Management professionals. At the very least, RHITs must have earned an associate’s degree from an accredited health information technology program, which means they have meet or exceeded a minimum standard. AHIMA’s standards are stringent and associate degree programs are rigorous and rewarding! AHIMA has been offering the RHIT credential since 1955. Why would you accept anything less for your organization? If managing your strategic assethealth information- is your goal, then you need the quality and expertise AHIMA certification signifies. 3A Mystery-ious Employee?

The SGA thanks all who contributed and also those who tried but were unable to contribute at this drive. The SGA hosts American Red Cross Blood Drives throughout the year and welcomes community members to join us on our campus to help support our neighbors with this crucial donation. Story and Photo by John Rountree, Photography Instructor As a technical college, MTCC is charged with teaching students the skills they need to earn a living. Part of that responsibility means staying on top the latest technological changes in the various career paths we support. Right now, one of the fastest changing fields of study is photography. Most people reading this article now use a digital camera instead of a film camera. Many rely on cell phones to perform double duty. These are just a two of the digital innovations that have forever changed the way photography is practiced by everyone. Facing the need to keep current with the demands of the workplace, McDowell Tech has recently added a dedicated MAC lab for photography students. The lab features 11 MAC Intel computers with large, high definition screens. Each station is loaded with the latest edition of Photoshop and has Internet access. The classroom also features a teacher's station with the ability to project the computer screen on the wall for students to follow. This new lab/lecture room will hold the equipment necessary to transform the photography curriculum at the college. Beginning with the Fall semester, all but one of the classes offered to second year students will be taught as digital courses. ` Beginning students will continue to learn the basics of photography with the traditional, wet darkroom process. By offering instruction in both aspects of the craft, students will have the strongest foundation possible to launch their careers. It is recognized in four year schools that, while digital is having an enormous and irrevocable impact on photography, the traditional darkroom skills offer a very solid foundation for learning digital techniques. And, while color prints made digitally are now the industry standard; black and white images are still problematic for most current ink jet printers. Digital photography allows the programs at MTCC to stay in line with the changing aspects of a profession that permeates every aspect of our lives. With top notch equipment, small classes and close involvement with instructors, Tom Raab and John Rountree, the Photography Department will meet the challenges of the next generation of image makers. McDowell Tech is one of only a handful of community colleges in North Carolina that offers an Associates Degree in photography. The program is now in its 21st year with graduates working in many diverse areas of the field. If you have any questions about the photography program call 659-0433.

Continued from page 1 Support Our Troops: Comfort Homes Joy today. times irreverent nun, not always towing the line set by the Mother Superior in her order. But at the heart of her queries and challenges was a soul yearning for answers to some of life's greatest questions, and a mind becoming increasingly frustrated with the pace of change within the Church, despite being part of the process of evolution marked by the Second Vatican Council (a.k.a-Vatican II) which had preceded her move to the convent. In her Mother house, the organizational structure of a convent, Joy acknowledges that she was alone in her willingness, if not outright desire, to speak for or against those issues and causes of importance to her and her Sisters in Christ, even when it meant challenging the authority of her Mother Superior, the spiritual head of the convent. “I was a loudmouth,” she has said, and she wrote in her personal biography that others have described her “...as having an overbearing and intimidating presence.” It is not a monicker from which she easily shies. She is keenly aware that it is in her spiritual nature to be inquisitive, sharp-tongued, and intolerant of mediocrity, and that those factors have caused others great consternation from time to time. But that side of her is reasonably ameliorated by her creative strengths, her playfulness, and her tireless desire to bring out the best in her students and friends. “I believe my responsibilities are to stretch every student I have the privilege of serving!,” she recently wrote. “I believe that the learning/drawing out process should be DELIGHT-FILLED and always a new and exciting experience... I can guarantee that my students will always be surprised in my classes and always be challenged to think just a bit more and a bit deeper than ever before!” But as her spiritual unease grew personally disquieting during the 1970’s, Joy sought to further her spiritual journey through advanced education in theology at Harvard Divinity School where she obtained a Master’s Degree in Divinity. The dramatic changes that took place in her life at Harvard and in the years immediately leading up to her arrival there were preceded by her departure from the Church and life as a Religious, another term to denote someone who is part of a religious order. A flurry of activity followed Joy’s departure from the Church, as she spent countless hours and untold energy participating in women’s workshops and writing her first book, Connecting Women in the Community...a handbook for programs. The book was underwritten by a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities and received accolades from a host of scholars in the field of women’s studies and community organizing. To make ends meet, Przestwor also taught classes part-time at Anna Maria College and was a graduate assistant at Harvard Divinity School. It was an exciting time in her life, as she studied and rubbed elbows with some of the brightest minds in academic theology and philosophy in mainstream Christianity, as well as Judaism and Eastern Religions. The Rev. Peter Gomes, who is now a well-known preacher, professor, author, and chaplain at Harvard Divinity School was a young professor whom Joy met during her years there. It was, to say the least, a place of great energy for an intellectually driven young woman from South Bend, Indiana. As she left the Church and her Dominican “community,” Joy settled in the San Francisco Bay area of California and embarked on a new chapter in her life. Armed with a Bachelor’s Degree from Sienna Heights College, Master’s Degree in Business Administration from Anna Maria College, a Master of Divinity Degree from Harvard University, and a rare and unusual background and skill set, Joy ventured down a number of paths during the next two decades. She was an account temp with Robert Half in San Francisco, a billing and control manager with Kaiser Foundation Health Plan, an assistant plant accountant with a plastics company, an assistant vicepresident of a small bank in Yreka, CA, and the assistant director of a YMCA before leaving Massachusetts. With a pendulum swing that began in the church and academia and ended in the fast-paced, less esoteric world of business, Joy proved that if there is such an animal as a “Renaissance Woman,” she is that woman. It was during the early part of this new “Act” in her life that Joy also completed a chapter in the book, A Faith of One’s Own. The San Francisco Bay area provided a stimulating and comforting environment for Joy, but she soon began to long for the “green life,” and after an exhaustive search for what she considered to be the perfect “green” life, she decided to move to the mountains of Western North Carolina and purchased a farm near Burnsville, NC. “Near” is a relative word, however, since friends and co-workers who have been to Joy and her youngest sister, Charlotte, in a photo taken during the late 60’s. her home say that it isn’t “near” anything, but is, in fact, “on the back side of nowhere.” But that is just the way she planned it. Well, almost. Home life in the mountains of North Carolina may have been just what the doctor ordered, but practical aspects of daily living were not quite so rosy. Having taught in parochial (church) schools for many years prior to seminary, and having worked in large business organizations for almost two decades, life “near” Burnsville should have proven less of a challenge for the job-seeking Joy. But it was not. Although she had taught at Shasta Community College in Califormia before scaling the mountain she now calls home, it took a quite a while for her to land the teaching job she had hoped for. In the meantime, she became a department manager at Rose’s in Spruce Pine. After a stint at Mayland Community College and private consulting work, Joy eventually obtained full-time employment at McDowell Tech in August, 2000 teaching Office Systems Technology. Joy quickly fell back in love with teaching and reconnected with the earth through gardening and nature walks. Never content to rest for long, she also began teaching part-time for several private colleges in the area, a schedule she keeps to this day. But just as life was becoming more routine and normal for Ms. Przestwor, tragedy befell her last fall as a very close friend died rather suddenly after several months of declining health. The death hit her like a ton of bricks, forcing her to take leave for the remainder of the semester. As the weeks passed, Joy found great solace in a church she had begun attending in Asheville, a church more closely alligned with her own personal and spiritual journeys. So much had she enjoyed the “community” and ministries there that her passion for active ministry was reignited and she began pursuing ordination earlier this year. As if her life was not active enough, for close to two years now Joy has been studying for her Ph.D. in Health through Sancta Sophia Seminary in Oklahoma. She attends both online and non-traditional distance education classes, as well as weekday and weekend seminars in accordance with her program of study. For Joy, the lines between vocation and avocation are sometimes less than clear. While she would love to take on an administrative role in higher education during the next few years, she is likewise pursuing an educational and ministry path that will lead to ordination and work as a pastoral counselor. In her eyes, the two are not mutually exclusive. It is clear that Joy has the passion and energy to do both. From her life as a nun, teacher and coach, to her many years in the business world in and around San Francisco, to her “green” years in Burnsville, working at Rose’s and teaching at McDowell Tech, Joy has moved and evolved in her spiritual journey. For now, it seems that the next chapter in her life is, ironically, moving back towards the church. Clearly, the book of Joy’s life has not yet ended, and if you believe in the Afterlife, it may never end. But one thing is for certain; with Joy Przestwor as author, this will continue to be a novel of adventure. The spiritual path Joy has chosen has twisted and turned, but Joy has stuck to the path and clung to the hope that each step will lead her to greater health and tranquility. First of all, a huge thank you for all the support that individuals, civic groups and churches have given to many soldiers in our armed services. I have heard of enormous acts of kindness and some truly unselfish deeds to give our heroes encouragement and show gratitude. People have shared with me some contents of care boxes that included things we take for granted but things our deployed heroes cherish such as plats of grass/soil, foam rubber, basketballs, footballs, string, window blinds, band aids, potted meat, wooden boards, hammers and building nails. I hope that everyone continues to support and uplift our brave men and women. I would like to share with you a unique program that serves our wounded and sick soldiers. It is a unique private-public partnership that provides a home for the families of hospitalized soldiers. These homes enable family members to be close to a loved one during the hospitalization for an unexpected illness, disease, or injury. The program is called The Fisher House Program and it has provided comfort homes for more than 10,000 families since the program began in 1990. There is at least one Fisher House at every major military medical center in the United States. There is no charge for any family to stay at a Fisher House operated by the Department of Veterans Affairs; and Fisher House Foundation uses donations to reimburse the individual Fisher Houses operated by the Army, Navy, and Air Force. There are two in North Carolina; one at Fort Bragg and another under construction at Camp Lejeune. In addition to constructing new houses, Fisher House Foundation supports existing Fisher Houses and helps individual military families in need. Families and friends of patients at any of the military's hospitals can now receive up-tothe-minute reports on a loved one by going to the patient's own customized web page, thanks to new services provided through CaringBridge. The program also administers and sponsors Scholarships for Military Children, the Hero Miles program, and co-sponsors the Newman's Own Award. If you would like more information or to make a donation, please visit their web page at www.fisherhouse.org or write them at the following address: Fisher House Foundation, Inc. 1401 Rockville Pike, Suite 600 Rockville, MD 20852 Toll free (888) 294-8560 I hope that I never have to use this program, but it’s a comfort to know that this program is there reaching out to our soldiers and their families in times of great need. We would like to begin another Tech Family Care Box campaign as soon as possible. I would like to have the address of all deployed soldiers who have a family member attending the college or a family member employed at the college. Please email me at joanj@mcdowelltech.edu or call me at (828) 652-0633. If you have some old cell phones that you would like to get rid of please consider donating them to Cell Phones For Soldiers at the following address: Cell Phone Recycling Center 2555 Bishop Cir W Dexter, MI 48130-9828 This program was started in April 2004 by 13-year-old Brittany Bergquist and her 12-year-old brother Robbie of Norwell, Massachusetts when they heard that a solider had an $8,000 phone bill. For more details, please visit the website www.cellphonesforsoldiers.com. My son benefitted from this program while he was deployed in Iraq. I appreciate your prayers and support for my son. His enlistment would have been up in May 2008 but he has opted for another three years instead of the ‘option’ of seven years of being retained under the Stop Loss Order. This includes more deployments back to Iraq. I appreciate your continued prayers. I’m praying for wisdom for our leaders and for a non-combative end to the conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq. Thanks again for your prayers and support. -Joan Jackson Business Instructor Joy Przestwor wrote Connecting Women in the Community...a handbook for programs during the early 80’s, followed by a chapter in A Faith of One’s Own.

It’s Like A Free Scholarship! Community College Art Exhibit Opens in Caswell Building Visiting Artist Program also celebrated RALEIGH - Art in its many forms is being celebrated in the Caswell Building of the NC Community College System in Raleigh. The Community College System hosted a reception in March marking the opening of an art exhibit and the release of a book on the history of a collaborative art project between community colleges and the Arts Council. Since 1998, original art has been on display in the Caswell Building as part of the Community College Art Exhibit. On Tuesday, March 25 the eleventh exhibit opened with a reception honoring the artists whose work is on display throughout the building this year. The reception included a ceremony recognizing the history and impact of the Visiting Artist Program and featured a performance by jazz vocalist, Nnenna Freelon and others. This is the last year retiring North Carolina Community College System President Martin Lancaster will host the reception for the exhibit. It’s appropriate that for the first time, each of the 58 community colleges is represented among the 143 pieces of art displayed at 200 West Jones Street, headquarters of the North Carolina Community College System. Many of the artists were on hand to meet each other and to see where their work is displayed. Some artists, such as Peter Rulon, an instructor at Coastal Carolina Community College, have several pieces in the exhibit. Others, such as Nelson Best from James Sprunt Community College, have displayed almost every year since the exhibit began. Best has only missed the first year. MTCC Students David Garren, Mary Lounsbury, Barbara Tillison and Instructor Tom Raab each have works being exhibited with the project. Lancaster, a former chair of the North Carolina Arts Council, created the exhibit after he assumed leadership of the North Carolina Community College System in 1997. He wanted to give artists at the colleges a chance to display and sell their creations and at the same time make the Caswell Building a more inviting place to work and visit. The exhibit includes exquisite quilts, prints, pottery, photography, paintings, drawings, iron sculptures, baskets, stained glass and mixed media. Many of the pieces are for sale. Reiki Continued from page 1 Reiki is currently being used in hospitals nationwide and by Hospice facilities. In March, the U.S. Army unveiled a $4 million program to research using Reiki, among other non-traditional therapies, as a treatment to help post-traumatic stress disorders (PTSD) and brain injuries suffered by returning troops. Open Hands Natural Healing Clinic also carries merchandise including homegrown herbs, essential oils, soaps, jewelry, glass art, candles, incense, books and other healing products. Ralph Timmerman, a massage therapist of Marion, has recently joined the wellness center offering massage as an additional healing and relaxation service. “The ultimate goal is to provide a nice, affordable space for other practitioners of natural or alternative therapies to work, as well as provide as many resources for our clients as possible,” Hamwey said. For more information, visit the store on Wednesdays from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., Thursdays and Fridays from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. or call (828) 442-3314 or (828) 527-2563. Lancaster says he hopes the tradition will continue after he leaves the System. If those who work in and visit the Caswell have any say, the exhibit will be a permanent fixture. Prior to the reception, a special event took place on the fifth floor of the Caswell Building. Some of the state’s most talented artists united to celebrate a visionary partnership that brought artists to every North Carolina community college. Nnenna Freelon, a Grammy-nominated jazz vocalist, Jan Davidson, executive director of one of the nation’s most renowned craft schools, and Joseph Bathanti, author of Coventry, performed and shared stories of the North Carolina Visiting Artist Program, which launched their careers. The North Carolina Arts Council will launch a retrospective narrative of the Visiting Artist Program entitled “They Changed the State: The Legacy of North Carolina’s Visiting Artists 1971-1995.” This partnership project between the NC Community College System and the NC Arts Council made it possible for every community in the state to have access to a resident artist located at the local community college. Many of those artists initiated projects that continue to thrive today. The art exhibition, housed on the six floors of the Caswell Building, runs from early spring through December each year. The Caswell Building is a working office building, so anyone wishing to see the artwork should call Chancy Kapp at 919-807-6962 or Peggy Beach at 919-807-6964 to arrange a tour. The Caswell Building is open Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and is closed on North Carolina state holidays and weekends. Reiki Master Carol Martinez administers a Reiki treatment for general maintenance on Ken LeRoux of Old Fort. This is LeRoux’s first session and later, he said the treatment made him feel better though he was not suffering from any particular maladies. Reiki Master Paul Hamwey administers a Reiki (laying on hands) treatment to Rena Harp at the new Open Hands Natural Healing Clinic. Harp has Reiki treatments on a regular basis. Editor’s Note: Eva Munday teaches Horticulture for McDowell Technical Community College at Marion Correctional Institue. The Horticulture program is an inmate-only program and is not open to the public. However, we are glad to share Eva’s gardening wisdom with you through this regular feature: In Eva’s Garden. 7A By Eva Munday, Horticulture Instructor, Marion Correctional Institute Watering Basics & Planning For Your Fall Flower Garden What a spring we have had! We had such cool, even cold weather, until all of a sudden we had record hot weather for weeksand a drought again. Usually our hot weather starts after June 21st, the summer solstice, but this year we got it early. The Midwest has had the opposite-too much rain, resulting in massive flooding. Now that it's hot most of the time and we're busy with ball games, vacations to the beach and bar-b-que's, please don't forget about your flowers and vegetables outside. Your flowers may be showing some signs of heat stress, especially your hanging baskets. Most hanging baskets need to be watered every day. Potted plants might need watering every day too this time of year, especially the ones in direct sun. Flowers and vegetables planted in the garden (or ground) should need thorough watering only once a week if they are well mulched. Remember all plants may look wilted during a hot June, July and August afternoon. Check them in the evening when they have had time to recover, or even better, early in the morning before you go to work. If one of your plants is still wilted in the morning it needs a very thorough watering. One of my favorite things is to get a big cup of coffee and walk around in the cool of the early morning to check my garden before I have to get ready for a new day. If you manage to do this at least a few times a week, you'll be able to keep ahead of problems before they get ahead of you. Watering technique is an important summer concern. My father taught me how to water in California where there was always a water shortage. In fact, when I told him I going to major in Horticulture in college, the first thing he said was “Do you realize how many of our plants you have killed from not watering them right?” I’ve learned a few things since then, from him and from others. Here is his Rx for watering: In the garden, each plant (even vegetables) should have a bowl built around them with soil and 2-3 inches of compost or mulch. The compost or mulch should only be put down on moist soil. Fill the bowl slowly once a week with a watering wand. Wait for the water to drain out and repeat for a total of 3 times. Do the same with each pot; fill with water 3 times and each time allow water to drain out. These pots do not need saucers under them. If you do use saucers, empty them after ½ hour or you increase the likelihood of rotting the roots, the number one problem people have with watering their potted plants-even inside ones!! I use a wand with a water breaker on the end of it. It helps by letting you put the water directly where you want it. One of the least efficient ways to water is to set up a sprinkler. To get enough water in the soil you would have to leave that sprinkler on for a very long time , and even then, most of it would run off or evaporate into the atmosphere. The best way is to put the tip of the watering wand directly above the plant and soak the soil 3 separate times. Please, please, please do not stand in one or two spots with a spray of water shooting 20 ft away to your plants. If you check the soil after watering that way, you will likely find that you are only getting water down about ¼” into soil. Consequently, all of your roots will stay at the top of the soil, and your plants will constantly dry out. A special thank you to Eva Munday and members of our Beautification Committee who have been planting and watering flowers around campus: Beverly Watts, Sherry Helton, Shelba Murray, Jim Benton, Don Ford, Ramona Gibson, and Belinda Foster. Even if there has been a good rain at my house, I still check the soil to make sure it got enough moisture. Remember your goal is to get the water down to the roots so your plant can grow. If I can’t reach my plants with a watering wand, then I fill a milk jug with water and water my plants directly at the roots 3 separate times. I only water my vegetables and flowers once a week in the garden to keep their roots going deep. Even though it is the middle of summer, now is the time to start planning your fall flower garden. Most people make the mistake of thinking their garden is done by September, when they finally can go outside without being miserably hot. Fall can be a time where your garden can be a showplace with very little extra work. When I started to work with flowering plants I found that spring was the focal point for almost everyone’s yard and the rest of the year was kind of boring. First of all, a lot of the annual flowers you planted in the spring, like petunias, vinca, begonias and impatiens that are not blooming as well with the heat will start to bloom again when the days get a little cooler in mid-August. What they need is a haircut. Cut the plant back by one third, fertilize, water regularly and they will reward you with new flowers in about 2-3 weeks. Most of them will bloom right up to the first frost! If they have died, most garden centers now have flowers that you can still plant. Just remember to water well. The easiest ones I would recommend for planting in the ground now are vinca for the sun and begonias for the shade. Both of them shed their blooms. Another good one for the shade is hosta. They seem to take the heat well as long as they are in the shade. If they have too much sun they will get scorched. For the pots, especially hanging ones, calibrochas seems to be the newest winner for sun and part shade. The flowers look like miniature petunias, but they have many more blooms and they shed themselves so you don’t have to keep pruning them. Of course, all of these will also do well in combination in a large pot, even the hosta. One last thing, for your regular monthly gardening news may I recommend that you call our local horticulture agent Dan Smith at 828-652-8104 and order his bi-monthly gardening newsletter. It’s free and is filled with a list of what is blooming at publication time, when to prune, when to plant, and many other helpful hints specific to McDowell County. He also teaches a Master Gardening course that I know many of you would enjoy. In the next newsletter, I’ll be sharing with you some ideas for a gorgeous fall garden, making your own free mulch and remembering the slogan, “Fall is for Planting.” Happy Gardening!

RALEIGH - One hundred sixteen students from 58 community colleges received praise and special awards at a luncheon at the North Raleigh Hilton on Wednesday, April 16th. This was the eleventh time more than 600 community college staff, students and supporters, including about 15 legislators, gathered to recognize the outstanding accomplishments of selected students. The event was also a chance to pay special tribute to retiring System President Martin Lancaster, who with Cape Fear Community College President Eric McKeithan, created the event to praise students and give deserved acknowledgment to the colleges that educate them. Several speakers took the opportunity to thank Lancaster for his years of service to the community colleges and especially to the students. Dr. Pat Skinner, Gaston College president and president of the NC Association of Community College Presidents, shared her thoughts. “Through the years he [Lancaster] has been an ambassador, a cheerleader, an innovator, and most important, a great leader,” she said. “I am certain he will say that some of his most memorable moments during these 11 years have been spent in the presence of students, especially when he has the opportunity to hear them talk about what it means to be community college students and detailing plans for the future.” 8A The DUMA KEY By Stephen King Book Review by Gabrielle M. Thompson, Coordinator of Library Services I must admit, I am a long-time Stephen King fan. With his first novel, Carrie, published in 1974, I was intrigued. Salem’s Lot followed, not my favorite, but then he wrote The Shining and The Stand and I was hooked. In those days, publishers only printed one book a year per author. King’s imagination was so prolific that he began writing under the pen name of Richard Bachman so he could publish twice as much. In his heyday years, he wrote two or three novels a year. He branched out from the horror fiction genre to fantasy, science fiction, nonfiction, plays and screenwriting. He then bit off directing and producing, and even did some acting. He is also a musician, and has comic book renditions of his Dark Tower Series, which Marvel Comics published as Gunslinger Born. Marvel is soon to release The Stand (uncut), also in graphic format. Stephen King is married to author Tabitha King who has nine novels of her own, and both of his sons are published writers; it runs in the genes, I guess. He received a Bachelor’s degree in English and taught school before he had his first short stories published. He fought addiction to alcohol and other drugs, and has been sober since 1987. In 2002, after publishing From a Buick 8, King was struck down by a minivan while walking along Route 5 in Maine, where he resides. The book had a scene where a character dies after being struck by a car, and various similarities. King didn’t die, but he did spend three weeks in a hospital. He never recovered from the pain of his crushed bones. After his release, he bought the minivan, beat it with a baseball bat, and had it sent to a crusher, much like what a character would do in his novels! Unable to sit at his desk and write for any length of time, he stated he would finish his Dark Towers series and then not write any more fiction. Thank goodness he wasn’t true to his word! His chronic pain has slowed down his productivity, but not altered his capability. Two years after being run over, King had a bout of pneumonia as a result of damage to his lungs from the accident. While he was incapacitated, his wife decided to redecorate his studio. Seeing all of his works in boxes gave him the idea for Lisey’s Story. It is a good read, but Duma Key is even better. Set in the Gulf of Mexico, off the coast of Florida (where King now spends his winters rather than Maine), Duma Key becomes the sanctuary for Edgar Freemantle, a wealthy Minnesota contractor who has been run over at a job site by a crane. Having lost his right arm, suffered brain damage and been in a coma, Edgar finds that life after the accident is filled with pain, rages and memory loss. During his long recovery, his wife decides she cannot tolerate his rages and asks for a divorce. His therapist, Dr. Kamen suggests he find something to do that he enjoys and try a change of scenery. Edgar admits he used to sketch. He locates the seclusion he desires on Duma Key, renting a house called Salmon Point, which he dubs Big Pink. Sketching, painting and walking the beach become his daily existence, which brings a sense of wonder and accomplishment, and some peace. His body responds to the regime, and he is able to wean himself from his pain medication. In his beach walks he spies in the distance another house where a man and old woman sit in the mornings. In time, his walks reach the distant home. He befriends Jerome Wireman, the attorney/caretaker of Miss Elizabeth Eastlake who owns Duma Key and the houses thereon. Elizabeth is quickly succumbing to Alzheimer’s disease, but has moments of clarity. Alternating flashbacks to her childhood show us that she also suffered a brain injury as a child. When she regained consciousness, she became a prodigy artist at age three. Edgar’s phantom limb itches and aches unless he paints. When his creations are finished, they appear to have come through him in a mystical manner. This component allows him to see into the past and the future through his paintings, and so he is able to decipher some of Elizabeth’s, and Duma Key’s, history. Edgar realizes he is also able to affect the outcome of the future by what he paints. His work is surreal in appearance, but commands respect from gallery owners and art critics. Soon Edgar has a show of his work scheduled in an upscale gallery. At this point, with the arrival of friends and family for the show, the novel kicks into high gear. His paintings reflect the power and the terror that resides in Duma Key—and it becomes his job to contain that power once it begins to destroy those he loves. I’ll leave the plot at this junction, not wishing to spoil the story he weaves. In King’s nonfiction work, On writing: A Memoir of the Craft, Stephen states that he writes from a seed, not plotting out the work but letting it flow from his creativity. His character Freemantle uses this style in his painting, and the connection to the mysterious reflects how King relates to his own abilities. As in his best works, the psychic connection plays a part, as does the appearance of ancient deities. Evil often connects to early creation myths and tales. His characters are very strong. You care about each and every one, even the minor characters. This can be maddening when King uses foreshadowing to let us know he is planning to kill one of them in the ensuing chapters. His dialog is natural, and his chapters, like his other works, end with cliffhangers that make you think, “Just one more before I turn the lights out.” This style of writing can keep the reader awake into the wee hours. What I love most about Stephen King is his command of the English language. Granted his degree was in English, but not every writer can spin a yarn with poetic and moral truths that make you pause in the reading to savor the craft. Stephen King does this. He has said that a good horror story is actually an adventure story. His books are not about blood, killing, and gore; they are insights into the psyche of man and the understanding of evil and good. It is why he has won Locus Awards, Bram Stoker Awards, World Fantasy Awards and the Horror Writer’s Association Awards multiple times. It is also why he is an O Henry Award recipient, and was given the lifetime achievement award by the National Book Award. Duma Key is massive at 609 pages, but every minute you spend on the island is magical. The Shining and The Stand will always be my favorites, but Duma Key ranks right up there at the top. I hope Castle Rock Productions makes this one into a movie, too. It would be a blockbuster.

As a result, the cafeteria expansion is not anticipated to begin until sometime in 2009. However, the college has already begun the process of advertising for an architect and expects to have one selected within the next few weeks. As college enrollment has grown during the last decade, some of the college’s facilities have not kept pace with the growth. With the addition of Early College students during the last two years, and with more Early College students arriving during the next two years, cafeteria and restroom facilities were in critical need of expansion. As a result, Dr. Wilson and Ladelle Harmon, Director of Institutional Effectiveness, completed a grant application which combined these needs with expansion plans in welding and various other renovation needs. College administrators and instructors will begin immediately to visit other facilities to get ideas for welding equipment, as well as floor plans. The new equipment will be ordered as soon as possible, and will begin construction for the welding program at the Incubator Facility sometime during the late fall before Christmas. “The welding expansion will support economic development in our county,” said Wilson, “and will prepare people for new jobs that are being created at companies like Superior Machine, which is currently undergoing tremendous growth.” Wilson indicated that the college is constantly looking for ways to assist business and industry in training workers that have the skills and education necessary to succeed in the marketplace. As a result of the college’s success in targeting the welding program with these grants, administrators are planning a follow-up meeting on July 16th to enlist support and help in seeking additional grant funding to upgrade other programs offered by the college, especially those in machining, industrial systems, electrical/electronics technology, and air conditioning, heating and refrigeration. The planning group will also discuss better personnel and student recruitment strategies, and will focus on training and retraining workers for the skilled jobs that are becoming more commonplace throughout the county. Wilson thanked all who took part in the planning process which resulted in these grants. Ladelle Harmon and part-time grant writer Julie Brown wrote the application for the Duke Energy grant. You Can’t Get There Without A MAP by Stephen Ward and Joe Amorello “A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds,” said McDowell County Manager Chuck Abernathy, quoting Ralph Waldo Emerson. “Doing things just to be consistent today is going to get you in trouble tomorrow,” he told a group of MTCC and McDowell High School educators at a recent “Tech Prep” meeting held at Countryside BBQ. While the focus of his remarks was on the necessity of educating our children and adults to compete in a global economy, locally and abroad, his comments could not have been more appropos for evaluating where we have been and where we are going as a county with the Tech Prep Initiative, designed to prepare high school students for higher education in technical and vocational fields. McDowell County, Abernathy said, was 18th in the nation, out of more than 3800 counties, in terms of the percentage of workforce employed in manufacturing jobs just a few decades ago. Close to 80% of the workforce in McDowell County worked in a manufacturing job. When Abernathy came to work as County Manager, that number was down to the mid-60’s, and McDowell still ranked first, second or third in the state for percentage of manufacturing jobs. Today that number is around 44%. We cannot continue to operate as if we were a traditional manufacturing economy in McDowell County in 2008, he said. With the exception of Ethan Allen, furniture manufacturing, once a McDowell County staple, has largely gone to China. Textile is weakening, but is still a strong presence for us. From Start To Finish: A Road Takes Shape Photos by John Rountree, Photography Instructor It was only a short time ago that our new entrance road began to take shape, but alas, now we can barely remember what it stood in it’s place. To refresh your memory, watch as it takes shape below. Many thanks to the fine folks at the Department of Transportation who brought this vision from dream to reality. While others stand in the roadbeds taking pot shots at government officials, we tip our hat to you and your fine service to this community. “May the road rise up to meet you, May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face, The rains fall soft upon your fields.” Irish Blessing by Michael Lavender Director of External Relations The challenge for educators, Abernathy said, is to identify what skills and training are needed by local employers as the type of jobs available in McDowell transitions in some areas to more skilled and semi-skilled jobs. In addition, educators must work with MEDA (McDowell Economic Development Association) to recruit and retain industries and businesses within the county. That process of reinvention is what the Tech Prep Initiative is all about this year. In fact, officials from both the high school and college unveiled new marketing plans that will be rolled out this fall to make students and parents more aware of the opportunities available to them as they begin the process of career preparation during the early part of their high school career. By planning early, students can expect to not only make a more seamless transition to community college degree programs, in many cases students can earn college credit for classes they took during high school. “MAP,” or McDowell Articulation Program, is at the heart of the group’s new marketing efforts. Stephen Ward, Graphics Instructor at McDowell Tech, and Joe Amorello, Graphics Student, designed a simple “map” to highlight the “MAP” program. High School Counselors will encourage students to “Start with a MAP” as they design their course of study in high school. Unlike the Huskins Bill program, which allows students to take college-level classes during the traditional school day, or dual/concurrent enrollment, which allows students to take evening classes beyond the regular school day, MAP is a group of “articulated” courses which the state, McDowell Tech and McDowell High have all agreed are equal in content and value. Students who take these articulated courses will be given college credit, upon application and request, for any of these classes which they complete with a grade of “B” or higher, provided that they also pass end-of-course testing with an “80” or above. 9 Many students have already been meeting these requirements, but few were aware that they could request credit for these classes. From this day forward, counselors will assist students in keeping track of their articulated courses, which can be “banked” on a “Tech Credit Card” and cashed in, figuratively speaking, when the student enrolls at McDowell Tech. By not having to repeat those classes in college, students literally save hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars they would have otherwise paid in tuition. In addition to marketing efforts, school and college and school instructors will initiate an enhanced peer observation program to encourage innovation and good teaching in the classroom and to ensure that students who enroll in an articulated class are getting the same instruction they would get if they had enrolled in the same class on a college campus. “I hope this process helps us benefit from your enthusiasm in the classroom,” Heather Hollifield-Hoyle told the instructors. Hoyle is Dean of Curriculum Programs at McDowell Tech. She encouraged teachers to become the best teachers they can be, referring to a quote from William Arthur Ward: “The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires.” “I look forward to learning from you,” she said. 10 A Careers In The Cla$$room In 1990, a friend suggested to Walt Bagwell that he might be a good fit for an opening as a Nationwide Insurance agent; as it turns out, his friend was right. Walt has been an agent ever since and has been recognized with the Champion, Pacesetter, and District Service awards. Walt graduated from McDowell High School in 1983. He has two sisters, Cathy and DeeDee, and a brother, Andy, who also graduated from McDowell High. After high school, Walt attended Clemson University and graduated in 1987 with a degree in Industrial Management. Unable to find a job he liked in his field, he turned to something he had always enjoyed as a hobby, Radio. Walt had worked briefly at the Campus Radio station while in college, and he took a job at WBRM as a salesman. In addition to his sales activities, Walt hosted a one hour show in the afternoons and served as color analyst on the McDowell Titans sports broadcasts. (Walt continued to serve as a color analyst for 17 years after he left the station.) Then in 1990, a friend suggested that Walt might be a good fit for an opening as an insurance agent, and the rest is history. In 2007, Walt moved his office to its current location at 163 South Main Street in downtown Marion. The new office expanded to 3600 square feet, up from his previous office size of 1300 square feet. Walt’s agency also operates as a Duke Power payment center and for the past 7 years he has operated a small tax practice and bookkeeping service. Walt recently spoke to students in a Business Insurance class at McDowell Tech about automobile and home insurance. The major points of his presentation include: • Automobile insurance: how your driving history impacts your rates, insurance strategies and options • Homeowner’s insurance: perils that are covered, different types of coverage that are available, preventive measures, and deductible decisions Lindsey Queen, who is a student in the class Walt spoke to, commented several times how much she enjoyed Walt’s presentation: “Walt did a great job. He is very interesting and communicated in a way that was easy to understand.” Walt has spoken to classes at McDowell Tech on several occasions; each time he has come away impressed by how responsive the students have been to his presentation. Walt has been married 19 years to his wife, Tabitha. They have two children: Brooklyn, 18, who is a student at East Carolina University; and Josh, 12, who is a student at East McDowell Junior high School. Walt is a member of The First United Methodist Church of Marion, McDowell County Chamber of Commerce, and Marion Rotary Club. He has been a PTO president at Marion Elementary and Treasurer of the Marion Civitan Club. In his spare time (which is not much), Walt enjoys playing golf and traveling with his family. He also loves history, sports, and movies. Thank you, Walt, for volunteering your time to educate our students about insurance topics that they need to know, for providing real-life examples of how insurance works, and for encouraging our students to ask questions as they gain a greater understanding of all aspects of insurance that relate to them. Brenda Stafford doesn’t want to sell you just one car. She wants to sell you every car you will buy for the rest of your life. “Service after the sale” and “Delivering on your promises;” these are the keys to sales success. This was the message Brenda delivered when she spoke recently to Marketing classes at McDowell Technical Community College. Brenda grew up in McDowell County and worked for Baxter for 17 years. While at Baxter, she was given the opportunity to further her education by attending several Industrial Management classes at McDowell Tech. In 1999, Dean Blanton invited Brenda to join his sales team at Morganton Honda. Dean said he needed someone who was comfortable talking to people, so Brenda said she would give it a try. Brenda has been one of the top salespeople in the industry; Dean couldn’t have chosen a better person. When Brenda was asked to speak to two Marketing classes at McDowell Tech, she gladly accepted. “It would be an honor,” was Brenda’s response. Some points of Brenda’s presentation include the following: • The importance of prospecting. When I have extra time, I call previous customers and ask them if they know of anyone who is in the market for a car. I use these referrals to generate new business. 85% of my business comes from repeat customers and referrals. • The importance of listening to customers. If you listen to customers, they will let you know what they are looking for. By listening, I can present to them a car that best meets their needs. My goal is for my prospects to take a “test drive.” • The importance of integrity. You might be able to fool somebody one time, but you will not generate any repeat business by doing this. Personal integrity is the key to long term sales success. • The importance of goals. One student asked Brenda how she dealt with the uncertainty of having a “commission only” job. Brenda said, “I don’t think about it; I just stay focused on my goals. I am a Christian and believe the Lord will provide.” • The importance of teamwork. Brenda credits much of her success to her management team at Morganton Honda. She said her manager, Odie Kuykendall, exhibits tremendous dedication to his job and is very instrumental in making everyone successful. Scott Coady, a student in the class, was so motivated by Brenda’s presentation that he chose to write a paper on Brenda as his Marketing project. Scott said, “I had been given the impression by other sales professionals that you are supposed to “get the best of the customer.” I was so impressed by Brenda’s honesty and genuine concern for her customers. She is the type of person I could want to buy from.” Brenda and her husband, Tommy, live in McDowell County. They have two sons: Daniel, 23, and Taylor, 17. They enjoy camping and attend Grace Community Church. Thank you, Brenda, for sharing your sales tips with our Marketing students at McDowell Tech, for giving them insights into what it takes to have a successful career in sales, and for the example you have set for our students with your own personal integrity.

You never know--you might find your picture on these pages one day! Jon Franklin is the proud owner of a 2008 Honda Fit. Brenda on the left. Buddy and Cindy Mills have just taken delivery of their new 2008 Honda Accord. Focus on your customers and adapt to their changing needs. This was the message Dean and Carolyn Wall gave to their granddaughter’s (Ashley Thompson) Marketing Class at McDowell Tech. Dean and Carolyn Wall are what you would call secondgeneration entrepreneurs. In the early 1950’s Dean’s mom, Hettie Jo Wall, started a business completely by accident. Hettie and some of her friends started making handkerchiefs. Her husband decided that they could make money by selling them and thus was the beginning of W.W. Wall Company. This small business evolved over the years into a sewing mill that made a range of clothes and employed over 150 people. Dean and Carolyn took the business over when Dean’s father became ill and could no longer run the business. They ran the business successfully until 1993, when, like many plants around the area, they where forced to close. After they closed the doors, Dean and Carolyn were faced with a warehouse full of inventory that they needed to get rid of. In an attempt to sell their extra inventory they went to a trade lot and were directed by someone there to another trade lot and then on to craft shows. Their new business was formed. Dean and Carolyn now travel from North Carolina all over the U.S. Last year they were in Maine, California, Arizona, Nevada, and Indiana selling their products. Ashley Thompson will be graduating from McDowell Tech with a degree in Business Administration this year. When asked to present her idea for a Marketing project, her first thought was to ask her grandparents to speak to her class. “I’ve learned a lot from my grandparents, and I thought my classmates could learn from their real life experiences,” Ashley said. Dean, Carolyn, and Ashley’s father, Gene, spoke to her Marketing class and gave the class a tour of their plant. Dean told the class that they had been able to attain success by ultimately knowing their market and knowing what sells best within those markets. “After some trial and error, we found that dog prints and cardigans are our best sellers.” Dean explained to the class that they where still basically running the same business that he had in the past, he was now just doing it in a different way. Thank you, Dean and Carolyn, for taking the time to share your experiences with our students at McDowell Tech and for showing them that an ability to adapt to change is a crucial skill for success in business.

Campus Mourns Passing of Board Member By Michael Lavender Director of External Relations Mr. John Cook, Trustee, passed away in late May. His passing brings back lots of memories for us at McDowell Tech. Mr. Cook and his mother have both served on our Board of Trustees. (She was on our board for a six year term beginning in 1979.) John began his service with the College in July, 1996, and became Chairman of the Board in 1998, a position he held until August, 2003. He was an appointee of the Governor's Office. He continued to serve on the board until his death, and worked diligently on the Building and Grounds Committee and the Executive Committee during the last few years, serving several years on each committee. Mr. Cook was instrumental in bringing Building 17 online in 1997 and in helping with plans for the Harold Smith Building, which was dedicated in 2007. Of the four presidents in McDowell Tech's lifetime, Mr. Cook helped to select two of them, and was chair of the board during the search process that brought Dr. Virginia R. Mitchell to the College. In addition, he helped to choose Dr. Edwin Beam as Interim President of the College prior to the appointment of Dr. Viriginia R. Mitchell. He, along with others, was critical in helping to secure a new college access road to the main campus, which is currently being paved. "The McDowell Tech family has lost one of its most critical members. He guided the college as Board Chairmen for several years and has served us in so many ways, large and small. It has been a pleasure for me to work and serve with John Cook over the past 12 years, and we will sorely miss him."--Dr. Bryan W. Wilson In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorials be made to McDowell Technical Community College Scholarship Fund or First Baptist Church Scholarship Fund or Building Fund.

Thanks to all of you, the event was very successful. The bands were wonderful, gift baskets were spectular and the food was delicious. Thank each of you for your contributions and support. All pledges have not been received at this time, but we anticipate that approximately $3600.00 will be donated to Martin and his family. Again, thank you for your generosity. According to Peggy Crowe, Community Manager for the American Cancer Society regional office, the college not only exceeded its goal of $2500, but McDowell County also surpassed its goal of $120,000. McDowell Technical Community College raised $4266 this year duing Relay for Life, benefitting cancer research. The purple potty (which is a McDowell County Relay for Life fund raiser) made it’s way around campus before Relay for Life. We raised $360 just with the potty. That is the most “potty cash” raised in McDowell County to date. Thanks again for supporting your MTCC Relay Team!!!

First Day of Class is August 18th ! 12 History- Through The Eyes The history of an area holds a fascination for its people. We ferret out tidbits of the lives of our ancestors looking for the joys, humors, and tragedies that connect us to them in a meaningful way. Few avenues capture our interest like the photograph. The photograph coupled with the story of the lives of the people completes an image. The itinerant photographer wandering the countryside with his burdensome view camera in a time before film cameras made picture-taking accessible for everybody, preserved the faces and the activities of a past generation leaving it for us to unearth the stories behind the pictures. Lenoir Franklin (1871-1943) was one such itinerant photographer. He was born in Linville Falls, North Carolina and moved a few miles down the road to the community of Three Mile – an Avery County resident before the county was formed in 1911. Lenoir had an interest in many things. He taught shaped note singing schools, farmed, grafted fruit trees, sold tombstones, and was a true craftsman as a stonemason. One of the ways he acquired knowledge was writing off for books on the subject, then teaching himself. The love of his life was photography. Lenoir’s brother-in-law Jack Ramsour was a local photographer. Following his death in 1906, Edith, Jack’s wife/Lenoir’s sister, trained Lenoir and turned over the equipment to him. Lenoir Franklin had found his niche! From 1908 until 1922, this tall lanky man wandered the countryside interacting with the people, documenting their special occasions, preserving the everyday events in the approximately 2000 glass plates that make up the Lenoir Franklin Collection. Lenoir generally traveled the distance he could trek in a day with his camera strapped on his horse’s back. Occasionally, the job warranted his spending the night. Interestingly, the people are not hidden behind the artificial smiles and gleaming teeth that is so prevalent today. Their faces reflect interest, curiosity. He documented death, life, work, play, social and religious events. We follow men from Ridder Lumber clear cutting the land, teams of horses pulling the logs to streams, floating the logs to a temporary sawmill. We see young boys working alongside older men as they run the logs through the blades in a sawmill. The steps in the work process are outlined in shots of roads excavated, and built, hay cut down, moonshine being made. The men show a pride in their work as well as their possessions – the guns, horses, dogs, pocket watches. The women are not left out of this panoramic view. We are invited to see their handmade quilts, their pride in their children, their fashions. We see grief as they stand beside graves and coffins of lost children. As the photographs of Lenoir Franklin show us diversity in the work and lives of the people, the “places he took himself” allow for diversity among the people themselves. Mixed in among the images on the glass negatives is documentation of the African American culture in the local mountains. We see people in work clothes or dressed in tuxedos for work in the local resorts, a man playing banjo enjoying the company of his friends. Some of these people can be traced to the local Melungeon people, others obviously are not. Always, whatever ethnic group, whatever socio-economic background, there is that same direct, interested involvement between the people in front of the camera and the man behind the camera – a mutual respect with each giving the best he has to offer. by Joyce Franklin Sellars About The Author: Joyce Franklin Sellars By John Rountree, Photography Instructor Joyce Sellars has been a student in the Photography Program at MTCC for the past two years. Before returning to the classroom as a student, she taught reading at Freedom Trail Elementary School in Cranberry, NC, where she recently retired after 34 years as a public school teacher. Before her retirement, Joyce decided that she wanted to learn how to preserve and print her grandfather's photographs. Once she had the time, courtesy of retirement, she enrolled in Basic Photography at McDowell Tech. She has continued to take photography courses and now hopes to publish a book of Lenoir Franklin's photographs. Joyce has also returned to classroom teaching, and was recently named co-Teacher of the Year at Crossnore Academy. of An Itinerant 13 Lenoir Franklin never made himself rich taking these pictures. He carried his plates home to process in a small darkroom/back porch with his pans in front of him a lone bulb hanging above him – for those few occasions he could turn it on. Lenoir worked in his darkroom on rainy days when the weather kept him inside. Later he and his horse made the return trip to present families with what would become heirloom photographs and collect his money. He printed two sizes of pictures, one half the size of the plate selling for 5cents, the other, 5x7, selling for 10 cents. By the time Lenoir Franklin ended his career as a photographer around 1922, times had changed. The advent of film and the Brownie camera had probably made such inroads into his business that it was no longer profitable. Hence, the end of an era. The photographs of Lenoir Franklin are a historic treasure. They make life in the early years of the 20th century become real before our eyes. What of the future of the collection? The plan is to make a book from the collection allowing local people to enjoy and lay claim to this part of their history as well as preserving the richness of the mountain history for others.

Blue Ridge Community College in Flat Rock will receive $250,000 to enhance programs in machining and other manufacturing training. Cleveland Community College in Shelby will receive $250,000 to upgrade and expand its welding program. Welding is also the focus of a $219,464 grant to McDowell Technical Community College in Marion. Forsyth Technical Community College in Winston-Salem will receive $ 197,372 for training programs in supply chain management. “This is an exceptional investment in vital workforce training for manufacturing from one of our most important funding partners,” according to Dr. Scott Ralls, president of the North Carolina Community College System. Ralls serves on the program’s advisory committee, which awards the grants, with Jim Fain, Secretary of the North Carolina Department of Commerce; and Tony Almeida, Vice President of Business Relations and Economic Development, Duke Energy Carolinas.

Grants: Fiscal Year 2007-2008 By Ladelle Harmon Director of Institutional Effectiveness The 2007-2008 fiscal year was successful for the Resource Development Office (a.k.a. Grants Office). Some of you may or may not know we hired a new, part-time grant writer, Julie Brown. For all you old-timers out there, Julie is the daughter of our former Dean of Academics, Larry Brown, now happily retired. If you see her in the halls, please welcome her. MTCC has been awarded five grants during this fiscal year totaling $1,340,754. Two of these grants were proposals that partnered with other organizations and did not bring a direct cash benefit to the college. The Grants Office is currently researching two other grant opportunities. Following are the grants awarded this fiscal year. Funding Agency Award Amount NCCCS (Perkins) $86,290.00 Duke Energy Foundation $219,464.00 NCCCS NC DHHS and Foothills Area Programs NC Dept. of Crime Control & Public Safety, Div. of Em Mgmt. $900,000.00 $100,000.00 $35,000.00 Description Career and Technical education in Student Services and Curriculum Welding program expansion Facilities and equipment funds grant Developing needs assessment report and strategic plan to help reduce alcohol related traffic crashes and fatalities Duke Energy began its Community and Technical College Grant Program in 2004. This month’s awards bring the number of grants to 33, with a total investment of almost $7 million and an additional $7 million available for future grants. Twenty of the state’s 58 community colleges have received grants. "This program is a meaningful way for Duke Energy to help its customers remain successful in North Carolina. The manufacturing customers we serve and those considering a move to our region tell us a highly trained workforce is essential," said Ellen Ruff, president of Duke Energy Carolinas. Projects funded through the grant, which range up to $250,000 each, must address training, retraining and other efforts to strengthen manufacturing. Also, they must fall within Duke Energy's service area, which is concentrated in the Piedmont manufacturing corridor and in the mountains. Examples of funded programs include Integrated Systems Technology Training at Central Piedmont Community College in Charlotte, BioWorks training for Gaia Herbs at Blue Ridge Community College, and exceptionally successful training in machining at Tri-County Community College in Murphy. Staff members from the NC Community College System, the NC Department of Commerce and Duke Energy work with advisory committee members and the Foundation for the Carolinas in Charlotte to administer the programs. Committee members say the most important outcome for measuring the program’s success is the number of manufacturing jobs created, retained or enhanced by funded projects. According to Foundation for the Carolinas reports, a conservative estimate of the number of manufacturing jobs created by employers participating in the funded projects is approximately a thousand, with at least 1800 retained thanks to improved productivity. "A strong workforce is essential to our economic development efforts," said Fain. "By supporting these programs, today's grants will help ensure our continued success in creating jobs and investment for the people of North Carolina. The North Carolina Community College System enrolls more than 800,000 students in 58 comprehensive community colleges. Internationally recognized for the scope and quality of its programs, the system is North Carolina's primary provider of workforce preparation and adult education. Training delivery and equipment A Million Thank You’s By Michael Lavender Director of External Relations A million thank-you’s wouldn’t be enough to convey our heartfelt thanks to the William Harold Smith Foundation for their continued financial support to our students and to the college. The photo at left, below, shows our current maintenance building, a portion of which was demolished last year to make way for the new “College Drive,” under construction by the NC Department of Transportation. More importantly, the current facility was deemed inadequate to meet the daily operational needs of the maintenance department at MTCC. Thanks to a large donation from the Harold Smith Foundation, however, the college has erected a new maintenance facility, seen right, below. Students in the college’s light construction program and electrical/electronics programs have been working to finish the interior of the building, which will eventually house the shipping and receiving department. Special thanks goes to board chair Matt Smith, who spearheaded the project. He is also trustee of the Harold Smith Foundation, although he is no relation to the late Mr. Harold Smith, a local businessman who died in the late 90’s, leaving a large estate designated to philanthropic endeavors, primarily to help needy McDowell County youth achieve their dreams of attending college.

Financial Aid may be available to students enrolled in a curriculum that leads to an associates degree, diploma or certificate. A student should be enrolled for at least six credit hours each semester to be eligible for most financial aid programs; however, there are limited funds available to students that choose to enroll for less than six credit hours each semester. The information provided on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid determines the student’s eligibility for federal financial assistance such as Pell Grant, SEOG (Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant) and Federal WorkStudy. The same information is evaluated to determine eligibility for many state grant programs, such as North Carolina Community College Grant, Targeted Assistance Grant, Less-than-Half-Time Grant and North Carolina Student Incentive Grant. In addition to federal and state financial aid opportunities, there are local and institutional scholarships available. In addition to completing the FAFSA, students wishing to be considered for scholarship opportunities should complete a MTCC Scholarship Application. These applications are available in mid June with a deadline for return of early September. Scholarship decisions are made by the MTCC Scholarship Committee during Fall Semester for the academic year. Available scholarships include MTCC Board of Trustees Scholarship, Maxine Souther Robinson Memorial Scholarship, Crane Fund for Widows and Children, Jeld-Wen Scholarship, Wachovia Technical Scholarship, State Employees Credit Union Foundation Scholarship, American Society of Quality Control Scholarship and William Harold Smith Charitable Trust. All scholarships except William Harold Smith Charitable Trust are applied for by completing the MTCC Scholarship Application. The William Harold Smith Charitable Trust Scholarship has an individual application. Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) forms and both scholarship application forms are available in the Financial Aid Office at MTCC. Students wishing to apply for Financial Aid should begin the process approximately eight weeks prior to the beginning of classes. All awards are made without regard to race, color, sex, handicap or national/ ethnic origin. Once awarded, the student must remain in good academic standing to continue their eligibility. All awards are disbursed once per semester. Students withdrawing prior to the end of the semester may be required to repay part of the funds awarded for that semester. Anyone with questions or requiring assistance with the application process should see Kim Shuford (652-0602) or Lisa Byrd (652-0624) in the MTCC Financial Aid Office. We accept cash, checks,Visa and Mastercard. These cards may be used to pay for tuition, fees, books and supplies. A $25 service fee is assessed for each returned check. 70 NC Information Highway Class (2-way Video Course) 71 WEB-ASSISTED DAY CLASS 72 WEB-ASSISTED NIGHT CLASS 75 **Traditional Course with an Online Component (10 weeks) Day (See description above) 76 **Traditional Course with an Online Component (10 weeks) (See description above) 80 Classes at MCI 81 Classes at MCI 82 Classes at MCI 90 91 92 93 10-week Day Class 10-week Night Class 6-week Day Class 6-week Night Class 95 Online (Internet Course) Day 96 Online (Internet Course) Night 97 8-week Semester Class that meets evenings, Saturday and/or Sunday (ONLY) 98 1st 8-week Weekend Class 99 2nd 8-week Weekend Class 100 Full Semester Weekend Class 101 Full Semester Class that meets evenings, Saturday and/or Sunday (ONLY) 101A Full Semester Class meets evenings, Saturday and/or Sunday (ONLY) 101B Full Semester Class meets evenings, Saturday and/or Sunday (ONLY) 102 2nd 8-Week Class that meets evenings, Saturday and/or Sunday (ONLY) 103 2ND 8-Week Class that meets evenings, Saturday and/or Sunday (ONLY) 104 1st 8-week Class that meets evenings, Saturday and/or Sunday (ONLY) 105 1st 8-WEEK INTERNET (ONLINE) CLASS th Pre-registration Begins July 14 !
