Dr. Walter W. Judge,
administrative assistant of
pupil personnel services of the
Dougherty County School
System, has been named this
year’s Fund Drive chairman.
An Albany State alumnus, he
received the M.Ed. degree from
Florida A&M University and
the Ph.D. degree from Florida
State University.
The College’s Foundation
was initially chartered in 1969
and seeks to generate funds
from the private sector for
scholarships and those
institutional needs which the
state does not fund. “From
funds we are able to raise
annually through our Fund
Drive among the College’s
community of friends and
well-wishers, we allocate to the
various areas of the institution
to assist in maintaining our
margin of excellence,” Mrs.
Triplett declared.
“It is the generous
contributions of our donators
which enables us to provide
funds so that our students may
‘learn to earn’ and become
worthwhile citizens,” she
added.
Talking about the College’s
upcoming fund raising effort,
Dr. Charles L. Hayes, president
of the institution which is
celebrating its 75th Diamond
Jubilee anniversary this year,
said, “The need of dollars for
scholars at our institution is
critical.” Drawing a parallel
between the growth of the
U.S., in general, and the
growth in this country of
higher education, President
Hayes said, “lhe founding
fathers realized that education
was a necessary foundation of
democracy.” He further cited
pridefully that Albany State
College, through its annual
fund drive, was taking steps to
help young people to meet the
challenges of this competitive
society.

According to Dr. Hollis, the
team teaching approach to
world history was implemented
for the first time in the winter
quarter of 1976 when large
lecture rooms to accommodate
the classes became available in
the Simmons classroom
building. The team teaching
approach is utilized in teaching
the world history classes.
“Currently, we utilize a
principal lecturer three days of
the week in instructing
between 90-125 students; and
on the other two class days, we
break down into smaller groups
for group discussions and
individualized instruction to
allow for a greater interface
between the instructor and the
students,” Dr. Hollis,
chairperson of the department,
said.
