President Dianne Boardley Suber to receive national humanitarian award

Dr. SuberSaint Augustine’s College President Dianne Boardley Suber was chosen by a panel of her peers to receive the Dr. Effie H. Jones Humanitarian Award from the American Association of School Administrators (AASA). The award honors a commitment to diversifying the field of education with high quality leaders and to ensuring the best education for all students, especially those who are poor or minority.

Suber is Saint Augustine’s College’s first female president. This year marks her 10th year leading the institution.

Effie H. Jones was a school administrator, teacher, counselor, organizer of the Office of Minority Affairs at AASA and a champion of women and minorities in educational leadership. Throughout her career, Jones was devoted to equity and opportunity in education and to closing the gap between the children who have and the ones who don’t by increasing the numbers of women and minority school leaders.

Suber has a collection of turtles. It was Jones who gave Suber her first turtle. Jones said to Suber, “If ever anyone is a risk taker, it is you.” Suber said she carries Jones with her always and wears the turtle often as a reminder of that assessment.

“I like to believe that I really understand the real meaning of advocacy and that God gave me the talents and the personality to be a real advocate and that my charges are children – 6 months, 26 years old. It doesn’t matter,” Suber said. “I am supposed to leave it better than I found it and in order to do that I must be able and willing to ‘stick my head out and put my tail on the line.’”

The Dr. Effie H. Jones Humanitarian Award will be presented Feb. 12, 2010, during the National Conference on Education in Phoenix, Ariz.


Saint Augustine’s College CDC receives $765,000 economic development grant

The Saint Augustine’s College Community Development Corporation received a $765,827 Community Economic Development grant from the federal Department of Health and Human Services Office of Community Services. The money will be used to create the Raleigh Workforce Investment project.

The goal of the Raleigh Workforce Investment project is to stimulate economic development in the city of Raleigh through three objectives: providing career development and entry level jobs for low-income individuals; helping individuals build financial self-sufficiency by training them in a field with the potential for skill and career growth; and reversing community deterioration by weatherizing and rehabilitating

Two sources of money will support the Raleigh Workforce Investment project. The money from the federal grant will be used to train people to weatherize and improve the energy efficiency of homes in Southeast Raleigh and the surrounding areas. The city of Raleigh will provide $500,000 for a revolving loan fund to assist residents in paying for the weatherization itself.


Saint Augustine’s College Theatre announces fall 2009 productions

The Saint Augustine’s College Theatre will present the following productions during its fall season:

"Places Above . . . and Below!" – A haunting presentation of three one-act plays. Each evening opens with Douglass Parkhirst’s "Early Frost," a chilling drama in which a young girl visits her elderly aunts, only to discover in their attic a dark secret meant to remain hidden for all time. Then the group presents "Tape," a short morality play by Jose Rivera, in which a woman is forced to confront every lie she has ever told. Finally, each performance closes with “Attic Treasure,” a lyric play by David S. Raine, in which three siblings discover treasures stored in their late father’s attic – treasures that involve each one of their own lives. "Places Above . . . and Below!" runs Nov. 18 and 19 at 7 p.m. each day in Seby Jones Auditorium in the Fine Arts Building. Running time for this evening of theatre is about an hour. Admission is free.

For more information, call associate professor George Jack at 516-4157.
