Among Dean of Men Eddie Ray Campbell's major goals was improvement in training and orientation of Resident Assistants in the dormitories. Believing that the RA's hold considerable poten* tial to contribute to the spiritual and academic development of dorm residents, Campbell continued to build programs advantageous to the cause. One of his concerns was communication between himself and the r;nale RA's. "It 's a goal we haven't totally achieved," he said. His mode of communication this year was primarily sending written memorandums, due to the difficulty of finding a time and place for all the RA's to meet together. Campbell also hopes to institute a course in the curriculum that would be required of all RA's . The class, a long-term goal which will take several years to be realized , "will really pinpoint some of the things they'd be dealing and Eddie Campbell Dean of Men working with ," according to the Dean. Some of Dean Campbell's time was consumed by the building of a new residence for his family on Highway 16. DOing the major part of the work themselves, the family found the job challenging, both from the standpoint of frustration and satisfaction. "It's been a significant chunk of our time ," he commented. Planning for the summer orientation programs on campus, Campbell attended the Southern Regional Orientation Workshop held at the University of Alabama. There he collected ideas for methods to be implemented in those programs. The Dean served the community as an elder for the Downtown church of Christ. His other duties included handling the complexities of Pledge Week in the fall and being chairman for the two blood drives of the American Red Cross. rr.(1 Board, Council initiate 'Phase IV' I ntroduction of "Phase IV: The Decade of the Eighties" was the major project for the Board of Trustees and President's Development Council.
