President’s Message Dear BeneDict college Supporter: As we enter the beginning of the Christmas season, I would like to wish you and your family a safe and healthy holiday. On behalf of the Benedict College students, faculty, staff and administration, I thank you for your support of the 2011-2012 Annual Giving Campaigns. Benedict College is a special place. I am blessed to lead such a committed institution. I want to share with you the College’s progress this past year with pride and appreciation to those who share our dedication. This devotion is exhibited by the many individuals mentioned in this report. The 2011-2012 unrestricted gifts totaled $2,300,522. We are also pleased to report that programmatic Grants and Contracts totaled $ 8,427,251 during this period. I commend the support of our alumni across the country, who collectively reported a total $828,475 last year. I’m often reminded that back in 1994, when I first arrived on Benedict’s campus, the alumni contributed approximately $165,000 a year. Today, our alumni have more than tripled their support. We greatly appreciate the increased involvement of our alumni. We applaud the continued support of our corporate partners who contributed a total of $642,317 to the Annual Fund Campaign. Our corporate partners continue to make the Annual Charter Day Scholarship Awards Dinner one the College’s most successful fundraising events with proceeds totaling $174,050 in the campaign. Faith is the cornerstone that makes our foundation unshakeable. We are very proud of our church constituents who donated $404,461 for 2011-2012 fiscal year. The faculty and staff contributed $30,761. Friends, along with groups and organizations contributed $80,200 for 2011-2012. The College Fund/UNCF campaign contributed $322,306 to the campaign. We appreciate all of your support during this challenging economy. We greatly appreciate your contributions, which help to provide the needed resources to maintain a quality institution. Your continued support will help us to fulfill our mission of educating the whole person by providing a challenging and supportive learning environment where our students’ motto of “learning to be the best,” characterizes its commitment to quality and continuous improvements. As I complete my eighteenth year as president of this fine institution, I am committed more than ever to creating opportunities for our students and our community in meeting the challenges of an ever-changing global society. Please accept our absolute and sincere gratitude for your continued support; we certainly could have not succeeded without you.

David H. Swinton, Ph. D President and CEO

Cover Story School of SteM aDDS environMental engineering to Degree prograMS At the beginning of the fall semester, Benedict College’s School of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics introduced Environmental Engineering to their degree program. What does this mean for the College? First, it is one of only two undergraduate Environmental Engineering programs in South Carolina. Second, it will allow our faculty to train and empower engineers who will become effective stewards and champions of environmental integrity and sustainability. Mankind is faced with massive environmental challenges. The ever-growing human population relies on industrialization, farming, and transportation systems to meet our everyday needs. As a result, we generate massive amounts of emissions and waste, which contaminate water, soil, and air. “For the sake of modern environmental challenges and mankind’s future, environmental engineering is one of a very few career paths that ensures active quest for impactful solutions while providing job security is environmental engineering,” says Benedict College’s Environmental Engineering Program Director Dr. Samuel A. Darko, who is also an Assistant Professor of Environmental Engineering. As part of the Physics and Engineering program, Environmental Engineering is an exciting field that will provide innovative solutions to problems in the environment, mainly air pollution, water and land contamination, and waste disposal. It addresses an effective means to keep the environment clean enough to sustain human development and healthy ecosystems. The environmental engineering program at Benedict College will teach students how to develop the technical and problem-solving skills necessary for identifying and addressing these environmental issues locally, nationally, and globally. According to Dr. Andrew R. Sabalowsky, Assistant Professor of Environmental Engineering, “Benedict College’s new Environmental Engineering program will allow students the opportunity to learn about,

and ultimately apply, technical solutions to problems such as: maintaining safe water and air; creating low-impact infrastructure; or increasing renewable energy use and supply.” Environmental Dr. Jessica F. Chau, and engineers apply Dr. Andrew R. Sabalowsky their knowledge of chemistry, biology, math, and physics to protect the environment and human health. These professionals are tasked with developing sustainable solutions for an expanding global community. Now, more than ever, we need environmental engineers with the skills to take on the challenges of renewable energy, clean water, and a safe food supply. “A career as an environmental engineer is about finding solutions to maintain some of the most fundamental needs for humanity and the environment that sustains us,” says Dr. Sabalowsky. CNN Money Magazine named Environmental Engineering among the top 10 jobs for 2010 and 2011. With an undergraduate degree, the student will have several career choices in this field of study. Dr. Jessica F. Chau, Assistant Professor of Environmental Engineering at Benedict College says, “Benedict’s Environmental Engineering program aims to produce graduates with a strong technical background who are well-prepared for the environmental engineering workforce.” With the start of the new degree program, Benedict College hopes to attract more students who are eager to enroll and graduate. Dr. Chau says that one goal is to serve as a pipeline for minority students into the environmental field. She emphasizes, “According to National Science Foundation (NSF) studies, underrepresented minorities make up only about 5% of all engineers, so there is a strong need to fill this gap. We are leading that push in South Carolina.”

Alumni News continued Dr. leroy walker, BeneDict graD leD coMMittee through 1996 atlanta gaMeS Long jumper Willye White shows a photo of herself to LeRoy Walker, who was assisting her during her training for the Munich Olympics in 1972. Walker, a Benedict alumnus and the first African-American to head the U.S. Olympic Committee and coach an American Olympic track and field team, died at 93. file photograph /the associated press

LeRoy Walker was remembered Tuesday for embodying the ideals of the Olympics and for his passion for excellence as a coach, administrator, and college chancellor. Hundreds gathered at Duke University for the funeral for the first African-American to lead the U.S. Olympic Committee and to coach an American men’s team at the games. Former USOC leader Bill Hybl called Walker “a one-man diplomatic commission” who “truly shared the Olympic dream.” U.S. Rep. G.K. Butterfield, D-N.C., read a message of condolence from President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama. Walker, a graduate of Benedict, died last week at 93. No cause of death was given. He coached the U.S. men’s track and field team at the Montreal Games in 1976 and led the USOC from 1992-96, shepherding the Atlanta Games and presiding over the group when the 2002 Winter Games were awarded to Salt Lake City. “I thought he’d be here forever, really,” said George Williams, who coached the U.S. men’s track team in Athens in 2004. “Everything we do is Dr. Walker. Every championship we win is Dr. Walker’s championship. … He changed the atmosphere of coaching. … You don’t usually see doctors coaching anything.” The Atlanta Games were panned across the globe, and Walker warned his countrymen the U.S. was not likely to host another games for a long time after Salt Lake City. He repeated his warnings after a bribery scandal threatened to derail the 2002 Winter Games. Walker coached Olympic teams from Ethiopia, Israel, Jamaica, Kenya and Trinidad & Tobago before his home country gave him a chance to be the first black Olympic head coach when he led the Americans to Montreal. His team claimed 22 medals, including gold in the long jump, discus, decathlon, 400-meter hurdles and both men’s relays. “He had a passion for excellence,” North Carolina Central chancellor Charlie Nelms said. “Anything less was unacceptable.” Walker coached football and men’s basketball at N.C. Central before starting a track program at the school that under his guidance produced 40 national champions and 12 Olympians. He earned a doctorate from New York University in 1957 and served N.C. Central in a variety of roles before taking over as chancellor from 1983-86. Story By Joedy Mccreary The Associated Press from The State, May. 02, 2012

Alumni News continued Dr. JaSper anD MrS. thelMa SalMonD finalize enDowMent agreeMent with a corpuS of $125,000

Staunch supporters of Benedict College, Dr. Jasper and Mrs. Thelma Salmond continue to provide scholarships for deserving students by increasing the Jasper and Thelma Salmond Endowed Scholarship to $125,000. Both, Dr. and Mrs. Salmond are Class of ’54 graduates and, over the years, have served in various leadership capacities in the Benedict College National Alumni Association (BCNAA). Former educators, it is no wonder that their level of commitment to their alma mater is so zealous. Mrs. Salmond retired from Richland County School District One, where she served as a Readiness, First

Grade, Special Needs, and a curriculum resource teacher. A life member of the National Education Association and the South Carolina Education Association, she has served on the South Carolina Area Reading Council and the Council for Exceptional Children. Dr. Salmond’s B.A. degree in Education from Benedict College and an M.A. degree in Educational Supervision and Administration from Teachers College, Columbia University, New York prepared him to serve extraordinarily as a member of the Richland County School District One School Board for more than twenty years, as well as an elementary school teacher and business leader. When asked what the impetus behind the generous endowment was, Dr. Salmond stated, “The ultimate is in giving back through sacrifice and commitment. We challenge others to join us by starting an endowment or increasing an existing one.” The College’s continuing commitment to providing an exceptional education for its students has been insured in part by its endowments. Through the generosity of our alumni, friends, and organizations, many endowments and planned gifts have been created in perpetuity to support the College’s programs. Like all of the enduring commitments to the College, the Salmond’s endowment will help connect the alumnae of the past to the student of the future who will have a comparable educational experience.

MrS. eSSie Mae Strother patterSon contriButeS $13,000 to enDowMent Mrs. Essie Mae Strother Patterson, past president of the Abbeville Club, contributed $13,000 to endowed scholarship funds. A 1956 graduate, Mrs. Patterson served

as president of the Club for many years prior to her declining health. She is currently living with her son, Dr. Lemuel Patterson, III in Savannah, GA. Mrs. Patterson’s long-term commitment to Benedict College is most appreciated and the College is delighted to have an endowed scholarship established in her honor.

Alumni News continued from page 7 Bc graduate oFFerS StudentS an outlet For SelF expreSSion Ms. Susan D. Blue has strategically captured the attention of the performing arts community. As owner and artistic director of the Columbia Dance Academy and its performing company Ethnic Expressions Dance Theatre, Ms. Blue has a very diverse curriculum that helps to develop versatility in her students’ dance experience. She exposes them to numerous genres of dance by offering classical ballet, modern, lyrical, jazz, Pointe, praise dance, African dance, improvisation, and dance composition. She initiates participation with the theatre so it will enrich the students understanding of the human experience across cultures and histories. Her artistic training is also diverse. A protégé at the prestigious Garden State School of Ballet, she studied dance for more than thirteen years appearing in a host of ballets, performances and productions. Ms. Blue is a Harvard University Ukrainian Research Scholar (four-year scholarship recipient 1991-1995) and a 1995 graduate of Benedict College. As a former member of the College’s Harold Odom Dance Theatre, she studied dance under the instruction of the late Harold Odom. Her studies include training under New York Director and Choreographer Walter Rutledge. As a dancer, she has made appearances as a guest performer in Benedict College’s stage productions of Epiphany starring the legendary Eartha Kitt, and Soulful Noel starring Tramaine Hawkins. And as a choreographer, she has arranged the Grande Promenade and finale for the royal court for several coronation ceremonies for Miss Benedict College and served as instructor and choreographer for Benedict College’s Marching Band of Distinction. As Artistic Director of Ethnic Expressions Dance Theatre, she allows her students to express their talents in many venues. They have performed in the productions of The Wizard of Oz and Soulful Noel, the annual Benedict College African-American Bazaar, collaborative performances with both the Benedict College Concert Choir under the direction of Dr. Linda Kershaw and the Benedict College Gospel Choir under the direction of Minister Darryl Izzard. The theatre company also

performed twice with Columbia City Ballet in their performance of Off the Wall and Onto the Stage: Dancing the Art of Jonathan Green, which was held at the Koger Center for the Arts. Ms. Susan D. Blue and Columbia Dance Academy were recognized by the SC Governor’s School for the Arts and Humanities. As a result, several students were accepted into their 2010 and 2011 summer intensive dance program in Greenville, South Carolina. In addition, Columbia Dance Academy had two students to receive a scholarship to attend the 2010 Wayland Anderson Ballet Project Summer Intensive in Sumter, South Carolina. Another student was accepted into the 2010 Debbie Allen Dance Academy for summer study. Columbia Dance Academy Alumnae, Yolanda Smith, will take to the silver screen as a professional dancer in the upcoming movie, BOLDEN. Columbia Dance Academy awarded eleven scholarships to very talented and deserving Benedict College students during the 2011-2012 academic year and sixteen Benedict College students during the 2012-2013 academic year as well. The dance academy has been located on the College campus since 2001. Ms. Blue expressed, “I am extremely grateful for the College’s continuous support of my community-based program and providing dance scholarships for Benedict College students is a very small way of saying thank you and giving back to my Alma Mater.” Ms. Blue offers an outlet for self expression by sharing the gift of dance.

Alumni News continued the Beacon oF light: Benedict college By Kofi C. Whitney, Class of 2004 You are reading this in old light, as my high school astronomy teacher would say. He once told the class that sunlight takes about eight minutes to reach the earth. Consequently, life continues to thrive because the sun was burning eight minutes ago. You see, he sparked an uncanny interest in his students not only from the facts he presented, but the way in which he presented them. I looked forward to his class everyday-for everyday I was an astronomer for a fifty-minute block. The ability to reach someone who may or may not have a kindred interest is not just a talent, it is a gift. I have chosen to harness this gift through education, so that I may influence and inspire others. Though I am a stargazer, my passion has always rested with computers. I was scarcely able to reach a keyboard when my obsession for computing became apparent. Thanks to my father, a professor of engineering, I was at home peering into monochrome monitors while other kids would have been lucky to have owned an Atari. My younger brother always laughs when describing my hobby to others: “Sausage, eggs, and pancakes,” he still says. One morning he brought me a delicious breakfast-for which my mother is well known- and sat it on my computer desk. He still laughs when he recalls that, hours later, the plate rested in the exact spot that he left it while I voraciously devoured it! It was no mystery that I was certain of what I wanted to do at a young age. The question has always been: “Kofi, how exactly do you want to do it? I chose to study computer science at Benedict College. This set the stage for academic and professional achievement that would have otherwise been impossible.

I have come across many who will never know what it means to have peers, professors, and staff that truly care about who YOU are and where YOU are going. How can I relate to somebody who did not have a Benedict College of his own? In a world where success is tragically out of reach for so many, my alma mater placed the reigns in my hands. It can be intimidating to consider that “you are your biggest obstacle.” However, I now know that this very realization is, in itself, a blessing. How often in life do we find ourselves at the mercy of things that are external to us? At Benedict College, my success was an internal matter. I was encouraged to always strive for excellence and most importantly: to never give up. BC’s push for continued education and its partnerships with programs such Georgia Tech’s FOCUS are the reason why my educational pursuit became something of a freight trainnot even a terminal degree could stop me. BENEDICT COLLEGE CONNECTION. My family members are living monuments to challenges that must be overcome for the sake of diversity and equality. I am fortunate to have parents (Tom C. and Kathleen Knox Whitney), both with terminal degrees, who could always relate to the struggles I encountered throughout my academic pursuits. Indeed, much of my family shares a strong connection to Benedict College. My uncle, William B. Whitney, serves on the Board of Trustees. My aunt, Thelma Whitney, established the Thelma Whitney Endowed Scholarship fund and she is one of the top five contributors to Benedict. My uncles, Albert and Tinsley Whitney, and my aunt Barbara Whitney are also graduates of Benedict College. Where would I be were it not for them? This is why I encourage all students to take education seriously so that they may become instruments of change in our community. As a proud member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., I have confronted many of the obstacles faced by the AfricanAmerican community through programs that encourage secondary, collegiate, and continued education- is this continued on next page

Alumni News continued not what Benedict College did for me? Altogether, these experiences culminate into the realization that, now, more than ever, my community needs role models who echo, “It can be done.” My success has become more than just a goal; it has become a responsibility. This is why I earned my Bachelors of Science in Computer Science from Benedict College. This is why I am currently a Ph.D. candidate seeking a degree in Human Computer Interaction at Iowa State University, where I will soon be defending my dissertation. This is why, under the assumption that I will be the second “Dr. Whitney” in my family, I have accepted an offer to be a Rotation Engineer and research scientist at Intel Corporation, a job that was granted to only 24 percent of college graduates this year (approximately a 10th of a

percent of all applicants). Some say that a man creates his own luck; I would have to concede that I had a little help. Thank you Benedict College. Kofi is from Columbia, S.C., where he completed his B.S. at Benedict College in computer science, graduating with honors. While at Benedict Kofi was a recipient of the CSEM, SCAMP and other Scholarships. Kofi’s interest in interface design is bolstered by his research and industry experiences, some of which include Blue Cross Blue Shield of S.C., Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and Intel Corporation. He is currently pursuing a PhD in Human Computer Interaction at Iowa State University.

BaSketBall coach Fred WatSon acceptS neW challenge In August 2012, Coach Freddrell Watson accepted the appointment as Assistant Athletic Director at Benedict College. Under the direction of Athletic Director Coach Willie Washington, he will be involved in the oversight of many different aspects of the athletic department; including scheduling and making sure that the coaches and players are following conference rules both on and off the field. This position complements Coach Watson’s 11th year at the helm of the Benedict College men’s basketball team. “I am grateful and humbly accept the decision of Coach Washington and Dr. Swinton appointing me as an Assistant Athletic Director. It is a great responsibility, but also a grand opportunity to demonstrate all I have learned,” he said. Proven one of the most talented coaches in the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC), Watson has been a five-time SIAC Coach of the Year. He has won five SIAC Regular Season Championships and two SIAC

Tournament Championships. Watson led the Tigers to a 19-11 record last year, leading the team to a third SIAC Championship and his third Most Outstanding Coach honor. The Benedict Tigers were recently named repeat champions of the SIAC Conference. Coach Watson graduated from Choppee High School, Georgetown, SC where he led his basketball team to three regional championships in four years. Ironically, while attending Benedict College, he played basketball under the direction of Coach Washington, and graduated cum laude. He attended graduate school at American University in West Virginia and received a master’s degree in Sports Management and Administration. The 2012-13 basketball season started with the same fervor as the last two seasons. Coach Watson said, “We’re just excited that the season is finally here. We’re not just excited because we get an opportunity to defend our championship, but for all the challenges that lie ahead. The players are excited, the coaches are excited, and we look forward to a very successful season.”

Campus News upWard Bound grantS help high School StudentS prepare For college and liFe The United States Department of Education awarded Benedict College federal grants of $3.4 million to be funded over a five-year period for its Upward Bound program. The grants, from the Federal TRIO Programs of which Upward Bound is part, proposes to assist participants in completing high school and successfully entering and graduating institutes of higher education. The Benedict College Upward Bound Program has served well over 1,700 students throughout its history. Ms. Carolyn Pouncy, Director of the College’s Program said many students who attend the program successfully go on to college. Alan Suber, a graduate of Claflin University with a degree in music, is one of many Upward Bound success stories. Mr. Suber participated in the Program from September 2004 until he graduated from W. J. Keenan High School in May 2008. He said his experience in the Benedict College Upward Bound Program opened up a lot of opportunity for self-growth. “The Program helped me grow as a person, a student, and as a colleague.”

Accordingly, he says he learned computer and business skills during the Summer Enrichment Program which he uses in his daily routine. “We participated in various activities dealing with real life”, he adds. “During the school year I participated in Saturday Academy where I took general education courses in math, science, composition, and literature in preparation for college. I am extremely grateful Ms. Pouncy recognized the leadership in me and encouraged my creativity.” When asked what advice he would offer current Upward Bound students, he says, “Take advantage of the program fully by listening, caring, and don’t skip out.” Mr. Suber is currently a graduate student at Wake Forest University pursing a master’s degree in Divinity. Upward Bound serves high school students from low-income families and families in which neither parent holds a bachelor’s degree. The goal is to increase the rate that participants complete secondary education and enroll in and graduate from postsecondary institutions. The new grant will serve one hundred participants from five high schools in Fairfield, Lexington, and Richland counties over the next five years.

SelWYn Young, head coach and ViSionarY team BuildS a Field oF itS oWn When a coach talks about building, it usually involves establishing tradition, helping players master new skills, and developing leaders. When Selwyn Young, Head Coach at Benedict College, discusses building, you will hear about shovels, rakes, dirt, and grass. In four years since he took over the Benedict program, Young has built a home for his team, converting an overflow parking area into a field by setting small goals and involving players in the construction process. When Young was hired in January 2009, the team’s on-campus baseball “facility” consisted of one portable

Campus News continued batting cage in the school gymnasium. Benedict played its home games at a local municipal stadium and practices were held at a variety of nearby high school fields in Columbia, S.C. Bouncing from workouts grew old quickly, and young decided the team needed its own place to call home. As part of its master plan to build new athletic facilities, the school had previously designated a parcel of land for a baseball and softball complex. However, after the football stadium was completed, there was no funding left for the baseball/softball project and the land was used to accommodate overflow parking for football games.

Young says setting small goals was the key to keeping the project on track. “Every week, I would write down what I wanted to accomplish, “he says. “For instance, on our first day after cleaning debris, I decide that I wanted to build the pitching mound—if a pitching mound was there, it would be recognizable that we were building a baseball field.” As work progressed and the facility began to take shape, others began to notice and became interested in helping out. One alumna donated $35,000 over the course of two years and a number of boosters joined in for weekend work session. Young has contributed $4,000 to $5,000 out of his own pocket each year.

“I knew that the land was reserved for us, so I asked Willie Washington, our Athletic Director, if I could get started on building a field,” recalls Young. “I don’t think he thought I was serious. He told me, ‘Go ahead, but we don’t have any money to help out with it.” Undeterred by the lack of financial backing, Young gathered his team and explained the situation. “I told them, ‘Unless you want to keep driving around to practice, we have to get started on creating ourselves on the field,” says Young.” So that fall, practice consisted of players lining up with buckets to remove plies of rock and debris from the field, which was rough, rocky stretch of soil.

By fall 2010, the field was operating as Benedict’s fulltime practice facility and hosted the team’s alumni game. Meanwhile, Young and his players continued making improvements with hopes of one day hosting regular-season games. “School officials didn’t want to approve it for competition right away because it was a little rough around the edges, “explains Young. “Then in early March 2012, our school president told me he wanted to tour the facility. We walked around and he said, “There’s really nothing wrong with this. I didn’t know you were this far long with the project. What do we need to do to play? I told him all I had to do was chalk the lines and we’d be ready to go.”

“Getting started was the hardest part,” he adds. “There was so much to do and it was hard to see any light at the end of the tunnel. The amount of debris was overwhelming. Working side-by-side, the players developed camaraderie and team chemistry. They also got to know their new coach and his way of thinking. “When the players first looked at that piece of land and heard my idea, they thought I was crazy,” says Young. “But after a few days working together, they started to see vision and began to buy into what we were trying to accomplish. To get buy-in for a project like this, I learned that planning it with your kids and addressing it slowly, section by section, allows them to see the vision a little more clearly,” he

On April 21, Benedict hosted Claflin University in the school’s first-ever on-campus baseball game. Though the tigers lost both ends of doubleheader, according to Young, they did so with smiles on their faces. “It was a moral victory for sure,” he says. “Having a home field gave it a whole different atmosphere—instead of 20 people watching, there were close to 200 of the player’s families and classmates watching them play. “Next year, we’ll be able to play all of our home games there,” continues Young. ”I’m looking forward to having it be a fan-friendly experience with an announcer, tailgating, and kids running around as part of a family atmosphere.”

adds. “It starts with letting your players know that the project is designed to benefit them.”

Campus News continued Stem StudentS inVeSt time in reSearch The Summer Undergraduate Research Institute (SURI) at Benedict College offered internships of researchintensive training to twenty nine undergraduate students. The participants, all students with STEM majors, devoted their time to well-defined research projects. SURI, now in its third year, is one of the summer projects offered by the College that enhances academic excellence and elevates academic programs to national standing. Research teams were comprised of one or more students each and a faculty mentor, with the student being the principal investigator. Dr. Samir Raychoudhury, Dean of the School of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics said, “As a part of the application process, each applicant had to provide the faculty member endorsement and qualifications form, a proposal abstract, and a narrative of the proposed project. The narrative must included, rationale for proposed research, relevant background literature, research procedures to be employed, and specific means of evaluation of findings.” The 2012 SURI project began on May 22 and continued for eight consecutive weeks. Each student received a $3,000 stipend from grant funds which allowed for housing and meals. Under the direction of program coordinators, Drs. Mostafizur Rahman and Changyong Qin, students had the opportunity to develop professional research skills and network with peers and faculty. In addition to the coordinators, faculty mentors included Benedict College professors, Dr. Isoken Aighewi, Dr. Silvia Atim, Dr. Jessica Chau, Dr. Gurcan Comert, Dr. Samuel Darko, Dr. Hong Jiang, Dr. Shahadat Kowuser, Dr. Larry Lowe, Dr. Rush Oliver, Dr. Samir Raychoudhury, and Dr. Ming Yin. At the close of the Institute, students presented their oral and poster research in Alumni Hall during the Symposium with friends, family, and other guests, plus the judges who determined the winners. According to one student researcher, Laura Grant, “Summer was a good time for conducting investigative projects. We had more time to spend on research and discuss our findings with the professors.” Judges ranked the projects and for the oral presentations, Kahla Haines, sophomore, chemistry major, took First Place. Sajan Shrestha, sophomore, computer engineering major and Joycelyn Smith, junior, biology major, earned

Kimani, sophomore, computer science major; George Howell, sophomore, computer engineering major; and Alexander Hamilton, junior-biology major won the Third Place honors. Final judging for poster presentations depicting the visual research ranked Charles M. Taylor, senior-computer engineering major First Place winner. “I really enjoyed my experience at the Summer Undergraduate Research Institute here at Benedict College,” he said. “It gave me the opportunity to learn how to properly conduct research and the experience I need to be successful in the future.” Other poster presentation winners in ranking order were: Second Place, Stephen B. Phillips, electrical engineering major and STEM student under a new Veterans Work Force grant; Third Place winner, Nazarine Nato, sophomore majoring in environmental engineering; Fourth Place, Chandani Shrestha, sophomore, computer engineering major; Fifth Place, Kory M. Griggs, senior, electrical engineering major; and Sixth Place, Marcus Hepburn, senior, physics major. Phillips, the only intern who was not a Benedict College student, attends the University of South Carolina. The Summer Undergraduate Research Institute concluded with its annual luncheon in BC CARES. All research interns received recognition for their participation in the SURI program as well as their presentations. The symposium’s guest speaker at the luncheon was Dr. Robin L. Brigmon, Fellow Engineer, Savannah River National Laboratory. He expressed the benefits of STEM research and the need for more collaboration between neighboring schools.

On March 17, 2012, Benedict College paused to celebrate its founding. The 142nd Founder’s Day celebration paid tribute to Benedict’s primary benefactor, Mrs. Bathsheba A. Benedict who founded the College in 1870 under the auspices of the American Baptist Home Mission Society. The Founders Day Rally is one of the most significant events of the year at Benedict College. We remember the past as we honor those who dared to dream. In addition, this day marked one of the high points of the institution’s Annual Fund Campaign. The event united people from churches and religious organizations, alumni, and the community who have given financial, moral, and spiritual support to the College.

The event kicked off with the Appreciation Breakfast for the constituents of the College, followed by a worship service, and culminating with the Founders Day Luncheon. Dr. S. J. Thurston, President of the National Baptist Convention of America, Inc. International, was the speaker for the worship service. He commended the South Carolina Baptist Association members for their unyielding support for Benedict College, a historically significant institution. Rev. Derrie L. Grant, Sr., Director of Church Relations and coordinator of the rally said he was thankful for all seventy Baptist Associations in South Carolina who support Benedict College.

Tiger Bookshelf In his insightful work, White Religion and Black Humanity, Harry H. Singleton, III, analyzes the white religious establishment’s use of Christian faith throughout American history to link divine will with black oppression. This exploitation establishes Christian faith as the single most persuasive tool in convincing whites of their superiority and blacks of their inferiority. Singleton calls for a re-examination of the major categories of Christian theology due to its misuse by many leading white clergy and theologians. Singleton is an associate professor of religion and theology at Benedict College in Columbia, South Carolina. ISBN 0-7618-5737-0 / 978-0-7618-5737-2.
