President Dianne Boardley Suber celebrates 10th anniversary at the College

Dr. SuberThe Saint Augustine’s College community gathered Tuesday, Dec. 1, to celebrate Dianne Boardley Suber’s 10th year as president of the college. Suber broke ground in 1999 when she was selected as the institution’s first female president.

"Eleven years ago, the opportunity was suggested that I might be ready for my own school," Suber said. "It was important to me not to be a president of a school, but to be a president where I could make a difference."

Since Suber’s been president at Saint Augustine’s College, more than 4,000 new freshmen enrolled, more than 2,000 students graduated, the football program was re-introduced after a 37-year hiatus, new programs of study were implemented, a new dorm was built, and students traveled to countries such as England, Mexico, Egypt and China to study.

Suber said her dedication to molding students and teaching them what it takes to be successful continues to drive her work at the College.

"Every May, when we watch young men and women cross that stage, it is a reminder, what a fulfilling journey it is," Suber said.


Golfers, community residents celebrate historic Meadowbrook’s 50th anniversary

Garner – Long-time members and friends of the historic Meadowbrook Country Club and Golf Course gathered Thursday, Nov. 19, to celebrate its 50th anniversary. Meadowbrook, now owned by Saint Augustine’s College, was the first black-owned golf club in the country.

Historic Meadowbrook Golf Course Meadowbrook was founded in 1959 by 45 black men who were prominent members of society. Barred from membership at segregated clubs in the area, the men worked together to build Meadowbrook so their families would have a place for recreational and social activities.

"They thumbed their noses at the segregated society in which they found themselves," said Dianne Boardley Suber, president of Saint Augustine’s College. "They said, ‘We don’t have to beg, we can create our own.’"

Joseph M. Sansom, whose father, James Joseph Sansom Jr., was one of Meadowbrook’s founding members, said the idea of having something that the black community could have ownership of was one of central reasons the founders built Meadowbrook.

"If you don’t own it, you can’t control it," Sansom said. "Ownership is the key to anything."

Sansom said his father invested a lot of his own money into Meadowbrook. That was the kind of thing the original members did – they put their time and resources into making the country club something they could all be proud of.

It was Meadowbrook members who built the clubhouse and other buildings on the grounds. Often, families would load their lawnmowers onto their cars and go cut the grass out at Meadowbrook, Sansom said. It was a family environment.

"We swam in the lake. It had chiggers and red bugs, but we didn’t care because we owned this land," Sansom said.

Saint Augustine’s College bought Meadowbrook in 2007. Original members wanted to ensure that its legacy as a traditionally black country club was preserved. Suber said the College plans to continue the legacy started by the 45 charter members through the students who now benefit from their investment.

"(Buying the golf course) was not just an investment in property, but an investment in the future," Suber said.

Meadowbrook was recently added to the National Register of Historic Places.
