Fall 2012 - Morris College
The Update Morris College Fall 2012 Edition F A L L 2 0 1 2 See Commencement 2012 Inside President’s Message With any developing institution of higher learning, the work is never done. This is evident by the college’s capital development projects, expansions, and changing landscape. Preventive maintenance, another important facet required to keep buildings and grounds in good shape, cannot be overlooked. They work together to offer students more and to help strengthen our position as an academic center of higher learning. In spite of such impressive strides, another kind of building is at work to ensure a quality educational program. I am happy to announce that the 2011-2012 academic year resulted in the reaffirmation of the college’s accreditation with no recommendation from the Commission on Colleges of the South Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS). With our accreditation project successfully behind us, we now have a clear path to devote our energies fully to helping all of our students to achieve success. Our theme for this undertaking is Implementing the Quality Enhancement Project (QEP) to Increase Retention and Graduation Rates. Our challenge is to make sure that our accredited programs and facilities are put to the most effective use in bringing our graduate rate up to at least 40 % as prescribed in the institution’s current five-year plan. This challenge cannot be the particular responsibility of academic divisional chairpersons, instructional faculty, and academic advisors who work within each of our academic majors only. It cannot solely be the responsibility of the college’s counseling staff and career counseling staff to identify students who show early symptoms that may lead to their dropping out. Working collectively, we can work with those students to help them recapture the positive attitudes that brought them to Morris College. This challenge will be the collective responsibility of everyone connected with the college. Everyone is called upon to increase their focus on aspects of their work that help to improve retention and graduation rates for all students. At Morris College, we measure academic excellence not only with regard to how effectively we operate as an institution but how effective our students develop during their enrollment at this institution. QEP is another example of the constant attention given to ensure that the “new ideas and techniques to the carrying out of the college’s educational mission” will bring breadth and depth to our students educational experience as they are being prepared for “successful careers and services.” The college’s accomplishments and strives are quite impressive. We have a Forensic Center to benefit students majoring in Criminal Justice and have added forensics to that major. We are awaiting occupancy of a newly built student health and wellness center to benefit students studying in the health sciences/ recreation administration programs and the college’s Army ROTC program. Our science building has undergone a two-story wing expansion to enhance instruction for our Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) programs. Currently under construction is a new three-story, twin tower residence hall. These are just some of the college’s capital development projects. The real building, however, can be seen through our students who “enter to learn” and “depart to serve.” It can also be seen through our faculty, staff, alumni, friends, and our loyal supporters. Thank you for helping us build a better and stronger Morris College. Luns C. Richardson, President CONTENTS COLLEGE PRESIDENT Dr. Luns C.

Or that they might not be enjoying it. “It’s a good program,” said Daeonte Lang. “It helps you learn stuff and better yourself. It gives you a head start on high school courses.” He’s in his first year of Morris College’s Upward Bound Program, but he has many family members who have been through it and encouraged him to take it. “They told me it was a whole lot of fun activities, and I’d get a good education,” Lang said. Morris College has offered the Upward Bound Program for more than 35 years, said director K.D. Singleton. The federally funded program targets low income and first-generation, college-bound high school students in seven high schools in Sumter, Lee and Clarendon counties. Singleton said this could mean one parent has some college or neither parent does. The program has two parts — one during the academic year and six weeks during the summer. Both focus on core subjects as well as preparing students for high school exit exams and college entrance exams. “We try to support the high schools,” he said. “We’re not replacing them. We help keep students in place or help them advance to the next level.” Morris College THE UPDATE This summer, 72 students are staying on the Morris College campus. During the day, they have classes taught by state-certified teachers. Many teach in South Carolina public schools during the school year or are retired educators. 18 In the evenings the students have various physical and/or cultural activities and speakers. “The president wants to expose them to everything the college setting has to offer,” Singleton said. “They remain on campus the whole week, have roommates and eat in the dining facility. We want them to get acclimated. Some have come back and told us it certainly helped.” The president of the college is Luns C. Richardson. The oldest students in the program, called “bridge students,” are able to earn up to seven hours of college credit during the summer, and it is all still funded under the program, Singleton said. These students are ar w p U d n Bou d From left, Antonio Evans, Tyrone Brunson, Keenan Miller and Ashli Generett. Photo courtesy of The Item, Jade Anderson, photographer. Alexus Henry’s older cousin is one of those bridge students. “She told me about the curriculum and the activities,” Alexus said. “The traveling was fun, and it’s a good college. It’s been a great college experience.” The program also features educational trips, Singleton said, and while the staff certainly hopes students will want to attend Morris later, it is not a requirement. The program is set to grow. The grant was recently renewed for another five years and by December, the college will serve 92 students in the Upward Bound Program, Singleton said. For more information, call (803) 934-3193. High school students in the tri-county area can also consult their guidance counselors. Morris College THE UPDATE Kaniya Gales is a rising senior, but this is her first year in the program. “I like everything,” she said. “It’s beneficial. Before this, I didn’t know anything about colleges except this one (points to Florida State University).” Instructor Johnnie McCrea had the rising seniors research four institutions of higher education for majors offered and costs. 19 Members of the new Health Science and Recreation Advisory Council in front of the H.H.

The President informed the campus community of the college’s recent reaffirmation of accreditation by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges. He also addressed the institutions growth, and the new Quality Enhancement Plan. The college has an enrollment of 907 students to date, with approximately 700 of those students residing on campus. The year also brings a significant increase in the number of students enrolled in ROTC. Referring to the total growth of the college, President Richardson stated, “ As we grow, we will become even more geographically diverse.” He shared the significance of the Quality Enhancement Plan and its efforts to improve the retention rate and increase the graduation rate, stating, “QEP will bring more breadth and depth to our students. The college grows as its students grow.” Dr. Radman Ali, Chief Marshall, leads the faculty and staff processional. Referring to the college’s growth through its capital projects: the Forensic Center, the recently completed expansion of the Wilson-Booker Science building, the soon to open health and wellness facility, and the twin towers dormitory, the President stated, “ The real building can be seen through our students. “ In conclusion, President Richardson shared a literary work titled, College, written by Christopher Evans, sophomore.

A visiting committee from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges spent September 19 – 21, 2011 on the campus assessing the institution’s effectiveness. This achievement means the college has approval to award regionally recognized baccalaureate degrees. It also means that the college remains eligible to receive monies from the federal government, foundations, corporations, and student financial aid. Under Dr. Richardson’s presidency, initial accreditation was achieved in 1978 and was last reviewed and reaffirmed in 2002. Holland Memorial Scholarship The new QEP Computer/Writing Lab is housed in the Wilson-Booker Science building expansion.

Two new degree majors were developed to maintain one of the college’s original missions of preparing ministers. Pastoral Ministry prepares students for careers in ministry, develops them as effective ministers, and provides the proper foundation for graduate and professional study. Christian Education prepares students for careers as directors of Christian education programs in churches, as well as other church-related jobs, and for graduate and professional schools. Both majors provide meaningful internships for practical application and skill development. Morris College THE UPDATE Graduates have excelled academically in their religious studies and are making considerable contributions in ministry through pastoral assignments, community outreach, counseling, and other church-related opportunities. 26 Since the first graduating class, 55 graduates have earned the Bachelor of Arts degree: Pastoral Ministry– 44; Christian Education– 11.
