Hors d'Oeuvres
The expression “hors
d oeuvres" means “outside
the work" and originally was
used by architects to indi
cate outbuildings. France’s
chefs borrowed it to describe
appetizers customarily
served apart from a dinner.
GREENWOOD - “The by
word in education today is in-
novation-and that is what tech
nical education is all about,"
Rotarians in two cities were
told this week. Ernest W. Pre-
wett, Jr., Information Officer
at Piedmont Tec, addressed
the Rotary Club in Clinton on
Tuesday and a similar group
in Laurens on Thursday.
“Tec Centers are char
acterized by a degree of flexi
bility and openness that has, to
this point, been unfamiliar to
traditional education. In
dividualized instruction and lo
cal autonomy provide for pro
grams tailored to the human and
industrial needs of a given
region," Prewett said.
In commenting on the re
cent untimely death of A. Wade
Martin, who has served since
1961 as Executive Director of
the State Committee for Tech
nical Education, Prewett added:
“He will be remembered as one
of South Carolina’s most ta
lented leaders and his legacy
will be one of rich productivity
and unparalleled industrial
growth."
Prewett went on to describe
specific programs offered at
Piedmont Tec. The center fea
tures five major areas of study;
the technical division, the bus
iness division, the industrial
division, the adult education
program and the extension di
vision. Additionally, he noted,
Piedmont Tec has provided a
vast array of services to area
industry.
A major item on Piedmont
Tec’s agenda for the future,
Prewett noted, is expansion of
facilities. A steadily increas
ing enrollment has necessitated
the development of an expansion
proposal that will equip the
center to serve 2,500 full-time
day students and a total en
rollment of more than 20,000
persons.
Prewett pointed out the fact
that Piedmont Tec is currently
being supported by four coun
ties - Greenwood, Abbeville,
McCormick and Saluda. “We at
Piedmont Tec," he said, “Are
anxious for Laurens to bolster
this base of support and we are
prepared to accept almost any
reasonable suggestion in work
ing out financial arrange
ment."
He went on to cite a number
of benefits to be gained by
participation on the part of
Laurens County. “Certainly not
the least of such benefits,"
he concluded, “Is that students
from your county would no
longer have to pay out-of-area
fees." Students from non-sup
porting counties are required to
pay an instructional fee that is
50% higher than that charged
students from the four support
ing counties.
Prewett concluded by saying
that at the present time some
185 Laurens County students
are enrolled among Piedmont
Tec’s 1,180 students.
