PresidentÕs Message
As we enter a new year and new
century and as we prepare for our
historic new millennium, it is imperative that we first take a look back at the
many amazing events and activities
which have shaped this institution and
have provided the foundation for our
reputation of excellence in teaching
and service.
In the last year alone, Calhoun has
realized a number of significant accomplishments. Last summer, the
much-anticipated groundbreaking
ceremony for our Aerospace and
Advanced Technology Park took place.
Already, construction of the first phase
of this project, the Aerospace Training
Center, is nearing completion. Once all
three phases of the Complex are
complete, Technology Park will represent one of the most important and
ambitious workforce development
projects ever undertaken in the state.
Additionally, our AmeriCorps
program has seen a very successful
first year; our Child Development
Program received a coveted national
accreditation; and many of our
students, faculty and staff were recognized locally, regionally, and nationally
for their accomplishments.
The work of the Calhoun
Foundation on behalf of the College
continues to be an integral part of the
Calhoun success story. The Partners
in Progress campaign, which is being
conducted by the Foundation to secure
funding for portions of Technology
Park, completed 1999 with over $2
million in public and private support for
the project. Fundraising efforts for the
capital campaign continue with three
primary groups — individuals and
small business; corporations and
foundations; and federal and state
workforce agencies—for completion of
the final two phases of Technology
Park.
Over 1700 individuals have participated in large or small group meetings
2
and have had an opportunity to provide
input into the process of developing
the Aerospace and Advanced
Technology Complex. Approximately
300 investors have responded to
requests for funding and others are
considering a pledge.
As we look to the future of
Calhoun Community College, we are
indeed grateful for the response of all
who have supported the College and
our Partners in Progress campaign.
We invite your continued support and
ask that you join us in our efforts
toward meeting the educational, training and workforce development needs
of our community.
Thank you for your interest and
commitment.

1999 Ñ What a Year!
A look through the pages of this
report will give you just a glimpse of
the events, activities, programs, and
people which contributed toward
making 1999 an unforgettable year for
Calhoun Community College.
The official “launch” of the
construction project for our new
Aerospace and Advanced Technology
Park was a topic of tremendous interest and discussion, not just for our
local community but in other parts of
the country as well. Not since 1984
has Calhoun seen a major construction
project at our Decatur campus, the last
being the Harris Hall annex completed
in that year. This, coupled with the
impact Technology Park will make on
the economic and workforce development efforts of this state, garnered a
great deal of attention and press for
the College.
Other programs and events of note
last year included a visit by members
of the Russian Parliament to our
Huntsville/Cummings Research Park
campus; the pilot class of the new
Technology Career High Tech High
School, located on our Decatur
campus; the significant increase in
training programs and courses offered
through our Business and Industry
Services division; and the official kickoff of preparations by College faculty
and staff for our SACS (Southern
Association of Colleges and Schools)
Reaccreditation visit in 2001.
These activities and many others
will be featured in this look back at
highlights of the past year at Calhoun
Community College.

First Phase of Technology Park
Well Underway
July 7, 1999, will forever be
remembered as an historic occasion
for Calhoun. That day marked the
official kick-off of construction for the
College’s $40 million, three-phase
Aerospace and Advanced Technology
Park, said to be the largest single
construction project in Calhoun’s
history.
The first component of
Technology Park, the Aerospace
Training Center, is actually progressing
ahead of schedule. The first section of
this 38,000 square foot, $28 million
building was completed in February of
this year. The Center will be used to
train Boeing’s Decatur rocket plant
employees and will become home for
the College’s new degree program in
Aerospace Technology. Completion of
this phase of Technology Park is
scheduled for July 2000.
Phase II of the AATP will be the
Manufacturing Process Lab, a $4.5
million facility which will house
electronics, semiconductors, surface
mount technology,
hydraulics, robotics,
and pneumatic systems.
This center is a construction/renovation project
involving buildings currently
housing the College’s
technology programs and will
be funded by bond money,
federal funds and others. In
February of this year, Alabama
Governor Don Siegelman
released $1.7 million in
bond money requested by
the College for this phase of
the project. According to
Dr. Carpenter, construction
of this portion of the Park
will begin this summer,
with completion expected
by fall 2001.
Construction of the
third phase of the complex,
the Advanced
Manufacturing/Information
Technology Center
(AMITC), is set to begin early 2001 and should be
completed in 14-16 months. The Calhoun
Community College Foundation and several community partners will build and equip the $7.5 million
AMITC through the Partners in Progress campaign.
To date, approximately $2 million has been
contributed or pledged by Calhoun employees,
Foundation Board of Directors, the Department of
Housing and Urban Development, 3M, Byrd
Maintenance Industrial Services, Daikin, The
Decatur Daily, TVA, The Daniel Foundation, and
other community supporters for this portion of the
project.

Russian Parliament Visit
Calhoun
Last fall, a group of ten Russian
elected officials, two members of the
Russian Dumas or Parliament and
eight regional directors, visited
Calhoun’s Huntsville/Cummings
Research Park campus as part of a
week-long tour of north Alabama. The
group was hosted by Congressman
Bud Cramer and represented one of 60
simultaneous visits by Russian officials
to various congressional districts
around the country.
While at Calhoun, the Russian
delegation received an overview of the
College, translated in Russian by one
of two interpreters accompanying the
group. The Russian officials also
toured the College’s Huntsville campus
facility. According to staff in Rep.
Cramer’s office, the visit to north
Alabama was arranged in order to give
local business and educational officials
an opportunity to interact and form
relationships with Russian elected
officials and to allow the Russian
delegation an opportunity to gain a
better understanding of the United
States.
Preparations Begin for SACS
Self-Study
Calhoun’s self-study process is
well underway. The College’s Steering
Committee has been charged and is
busy selecting subcommittee members
and making preparations for completing the College’s compliance audit.
According to Dr. Dena
Stephenson, Self-Study director and
chair of the steering committee, the
committee’s membership includes
Calhoun students, faculty, staff and
administrators as well as community
leaders.
Last fall, The Commission on
Colleges approved the College’s
proposal for an alternate self-study to
look at its Workforce Development
initiatives. In preparation for the
College’s Accreditation Team visit in
2001, Dr. Gerald Lord, Calhoun’s
liaison from SACS, visited the College
last November to officially “kick-off”
the process.
College’s Child Care Program
Awarded National Accreditation
One of the most exciting
announcements for the College last
year was the granting of accreditation
to its Child Development Center by the
National Association for the Education
of Young Children (NAEYC). According
to the NAEYC, approximately 7% of
early childhood programs nationwide
have achieved this prestigious recognition.
The national accreditation will
enhance Calhoun’s current CDA
credentialing and certificate programs
Russian officials toured Calhoun’s
Huntsville/Cummings Research Park campus
in the fall of 1999.
as well as the new Associate Degree
program in Child Development by
serving as the laboratory for these
classes. “Calhoun Community College
is extremely proud to provide a high
quality child care program for our
students, employees, and the community. We are the only two-year college
in the State to have an NAEYC
approved program,” commented Dr.
Theresa Hamilton, dean of instruction.
NAEYC accreditation is a rigorous,
voluntary process by which early childhood programs demonstrate that they
meet national standards of excellence.
Programs seeking accreditation
undergo an intensive self-study,
collecting information from parents,
teachers, administrators, and classroom observations. They receive an
on-site visit, conducted by early childhood professionals
especially trained by
NAEYC, to validate
the self-study results.
A team of national
experts who grant or
defer accreditation
independently
reviews all of the
information. When
awarded, accreditation is valid for three
years.
Programs
College Selected as State’s
Only Pilot Site for New ACT
Testing Centers
The first wave of ACT, Inc.’s network of computerized testing and training centers will be located at more than
40 of the nation’s community colleges,
and earlier this year Calhoun was tapped
as one of these pilot institutions.
Calhoun President Richard Carpenter announced the College’s plans to
establish an ACT (American College
Testing) Center at its Decatur campus to
provide state-of-the-art testing and
training programs for area businesses,
individuals, and organizations. The ACT
Center will provide a vast library of training programs and testing services using
computers, the Internet and other technologies aimed at developing the skills
of the local workforce in a convenient
and cost-effective manner.
“A skilled workforce is crucial in a
prosperous economy,” said Carpenter.
“Our ACT Center will be a resource for
north Alabama employees and employers to benefit from the latest training
programs and methods. Area residents
can use the ACT Center to boost their
skills and qualify for better jobs.
Employers can use the assessment and

training programs to hire and develop
employees, raising productivity, morale
and profits.”
Carpenter added, “The ACT Center
will enhance Calhoun’s mission of providing education and training to develop the
workforce and the economy.”
AmeriCorps Program has
“Busy” First Year
Throughout 1999, the Calhoun
AmeriCorps Program (CAP) was busy
in the community “getting things
done,” says CAP Director Gina Battle.
Listed below are some of the projects
in which AmeriCorps members participated during the year.
In May, the program conducted its
First Annual Fun from Books carnival
for 144 local elementary school students being mentored by CAP members. In June, program members
attended the High and Low Ropes
training course in Wetumpka, Alabama,
which taught participants team building
skills and provided the opportunity to
interact with other AmeriCorps members.
During the months of June and
July, CAP members assisted Decatur
Youth Services with a day camp at the
Carrie Matthews Center. CAP members
tutored students at the camp in reading
and science.
AmeriCorps members also provided assistance and many volunteer
hours to a number of local schools,
including Somerville Road Elementary,
Eastwood Elementary, West Decatur
Elementary, Woodmeade Elementary,
Leon Sheffield Elementary, and Julian
Harris Elementary schools.
According to Ms. Battle, “the Calhoun AmeriCorps Program has been
well received by the communities that
were given assistance. All of the organizations we have supported want CAP
to be an annual participant with their
program events.”
AmeriCorps conducted its first Annual Fun from Books
carnival for 144 local elementary students.
College Hosts First Regional
Computer Olympiad
In February, nine high school teams
from Athens, Limestone County, Morgan County, Decatur, and Huntsville
demonstrated their computer knowledge and creativity in competition during the first year of the North Alabama
Computing Olympiad. The competition,
hosted by Calhoun in conjunction with
the University of Alabama (UA), gave the
students involved an opportunity to
compete in the areas of webpage design
and web surfing and to earn scholarships to both Calhoun and UA.
According to event organizer Elizabeth Cheatham, an instructor in the College’s computer information systems
department, the primary goal of the
competition was to increase the awareness and participation of students in
technology-related fields. Winning
teams were from Grissom (Huntsville)
and West Limestone high schools. Winners were awarded $500 each in scholarships to Calhoun and were invited to
participate in the state competition in
Tuscaloosa.
Because of the success of this
first year, the College plans to continue its involvement in the Olympiad
competition.
Local School-to-Career
Partnership Awarded $300,000
Grant
A partnership between Calhoun
and the Decatur-Morgan County Chamber of Commerce has grown into a
region-wide workforce development
program that was awarded a $300,000
federal grant last year.
The School-to-Career (STC) Partnership, which includes six secondary
schools, Calhoun, Athens State University, and economic development
groups and numerous civic and governmental agencies in the MorganLawrence-Limestone county area, was
awarded the grant through the Alabama
Department of Economic and Community Affairs (ADECA).
According to Dr. Mary Yarbrough,
chairperson of the Business Division at
Calhoun, member of the STC Partnership Steering Committee, and author of
the grant proposal, the grant is being
used to implement programs within the
partnership’s three-county area to support school to work activities as a part
of local workforce development initiatives. “The emphases of our STC Partnership include identifying needs of
area businesses and industries and
meeting those needs to enhance economic development in North Alabama,”
said Dr. Yarbrough. “The awarding of
this grant to the local partnership
ensures we are able to continue our
work.”
“The STC Partnership focuses on
business and industry involvement as a
means of upgrading the ‘image’ of
technical education and attract more
students into technical career fields of
study,” said Calhoun President Richard
Carpenter. Fostering and helping
develop closer and more involved relationships between business and education is a major emphasis of the STC
Partnership.
According to Dr. Yarbrough, funding from the grant will be used to pilot
Work Keys as a method of testing tenth
grade students to help them in career
assessment and curriculum planning.
Work Keys is a national system used to
assess the skills required for a job and
provide training to fill the gap between
what is needed and where an individual
is at that point in time.
Pilot Program Provides Area
Students “Hands-On”
Technology Training
A pilot program which kicked off
last fall at the College is providing a
group of area high school students
“hands on”, state-of-the-art training
while allowing them to get a head start
on their college courses.
The Technology Career High Tech
High School is a collaborative effort
among Calhoun; the Decatur City, Hartselle City, and Morgan County school
systems; and area businesses including The Boeing Company; 3M, Inc.;
Copeland Industries; Delphi Saginaw
Steering Gear; Wolverine Tube; and
Worthington Steel Company.
This year, 15 students were
enrolled in the program’s inaugural
class. According to Bill Tepper, coordinator of the program, students receive
dual credit for courses they take during
the morning at Calhoun. Those students completing the program will earn
up to a full semester of college coursework upon graduation from high
school.
The students are enrolled in environmental science, economics and
government classes, and augment their
classroom work with industry-related
activities and field trips to area businesses.
Because of its popularity among
students and supporting businesses,
the program will expand this fall to
include up to 50 students recruited
from Lawrence County, Athens City,
and Limestone County school systems,
as well as the three original participating systems.
As the need for a
more skilled workforce increases, Calhoun’s role in the area
of economic and
workforce development becomes increasingly significant.
In his role as the College’s Chief Executive
Officer, Calhoun President Richard Carpenter has been involved in a number of
state, regional, and national activities and
appointments, many dealing directly with
workforce development initiatives. Several of these activities are highlighted
here.
• Carpenter has spoken face-to-face with
over 1700 employees and community
and government leaders building support and raising funds for Technology
Park.
• He recently completed a three-year
appointed term with a national Workforce Development committee in Washington, D.C., charged with forging a
national workforce development agenda for the nation’s 1300 two-year colleges and impacting the national
Workforce Investment Act.
• He delivered a statewide School-toWork presentation on workforce development to the Economic Development
Partnership of Alabama.
• During each of the last three years, the
Leadership Alabama program has asked
Carpenter to address the group on
workforce development issues.
• Alabama Governor Don Siegelman
appointed him to a term on the Alabama
Workforce Development Board, making Carpenter one of only two 2-year
college presidents serving in this capacity.
• Carpenter also is serving an appointed
term by The College Board to the Community College Advisory Committee for
the South, representing ten southeastern states. The Advisory Committee,
comprised of college presidents and
state chancellors, recently elected Carpenter chair. The Committee has been
charged with addressing workforce
development issues such as assessments, programs and services, and staff
development.
Faculty
Grants were awarded to the following projects:

College Awards $100,000 to
Innovative Faculty to Promote
Technology Use in the Classroom
In an effort to encourage more faculty
to incorporate the use of technology into
classroom teaching, Calhoun has for the
second year awarded $100,000 to faculty
through the college’s Venture Capital Fund
Grant Program.
The program kicked off last year as a
way to provide additional resources to
those faculty members making use of
instructional innovation in the classroom.
According to Calhoun President Richard
Carpenter, individual faculty members or
teams of faculty submit proposals for
grant awards. This academic year, 14
proposals were submitted, totaling almost
$220,000 in requests.
“We strongly encourage our faculty to
make use of available technology in the
classroom and to continue to find innovative methods of providing instruction to
our students. It is important that the
College supports the outstanding work of
our faculty, which is why this Venture
Capital program is so significant,” said
Carpenter.
The selection team, comprised of Dr.
Gary Green, executive vice president at
Calhoun; Rick Toliver, SRI (Stanford
Research Institute); Sally Little, NASA; Dr.
Theresa Hamilton, instructional dean at
Calhoun; and Rene Lott from Alabama
A&M University, granted a total of $98,434
in awards.
“While our available funds did not
allow the selection team to fund all the
proposals at 100%, it is our hope that the
faculty involved with each project have
been allocated funding at a level sufficient
to initiate if not fully carry out the objectives identified within their grant
proposals,” said Green.
According to Green, funding priority
was given to those projects which improve
the quality of instruction at the College

THE CALHOUN FOUNDATION
The purpose of the Calhoun
Community College Foundation is to
support Calhoun as it seeks to provide
for the educational and training needs
for citizens of Madison, Morgan,
Limestone, and Lawrence counties.
The Foundation accepts gifts of cash,
securities, property, and materials on
behalf of the College. The Foundation
promotes Calhoun through various
channels, including publications and
the personal testimony of its members.
The Foundation is building long-range
security for the College through its
scholarship, professional development,
academic improvement, and endowment programs.
This report offers the opportunity
not only to keep Foundation supporters
informed about initiatives at Calhoun
Community College, but also to help
them understand why investments
through the Calhoun Foundation are so
important. The Foundation Board and
its supporters make the difference in
an average educational opportunity at
Calhoun and one that is exceptional.
Because of this level of caring,
concern, and financial support,
Calhoun continues to serve the
community better in the year 2000 and
beyond.
A Millennium Committee
composed of Foundation Board
Members began work in January of
this year to expand the opportunity for
support. Plans are for a Millennium
Dinner to be held later this year during
the week of the ribbon cutting for our
Aerospace Training Center. All donors
contributing at the $1000 level to the
Partners in Progress campaign will
receive special recognition at this
Dinner.
Millennium Committee members pictured left to right are Dr. George
Hansberry, Britt Sexton, Jean Templeton, Florette Stremke, and Jimmy

governmental support for the
Manufacturing/Information Technology
Center, Phase III of the Aerospace and
Advanced Technology Complex, or

ment agencies had donated or pledged
over $2.3 million.
Currently proposals are in process
for an additional $2 million.
Partnerships are the key to the success
of the Partners in Progress campaign,
and all partners will be recognized
appropriately in media and naming
opportunities throughout Technology
Park.
Technology Park is being constructed
in three phases, each explained below.
Phase I: The Aerospace Training
Center will be complete for the ribbon
cutting in summer 2000. The primary
source of funding for this project was
the State of Alabama.
Phase II: Construction for the
Manufacturing Processes Labs will
begin summer 2000, with planned
completion slated for fall 2001.
Funding for this construction/renovation project will come from bond
money and various college partners.
Phase III: The
Manufacturing/Information Technology
Center will break ground by late spring
2001. Funding sources include individuals, corporations, foundations, and
federal and state entities.
The Partners in Progress
Campaign began September 1997 with
a combination Calhoun 50th
Anniversary/Birthday celebration and
the Campaign Kickoff for Calhoun
Employees. By March 1998, over 90%
of the College’s employees had

Foundation Board Member
Vernon Lane, his wife Lola, and
friends prepare the “World’s
Best Stew,” hot dogs, fried
apple pies, and hot drinks for
the October Cookout each year
at the Lanes’ City View Farms.
The 1999 Cookout featured
the Calhoun Jazz Band, a
roaring bonfire, and roasted marshmallows. Calhoun Warhawks and their
sponsors assisted with the logistics as
50 pumpkins changed into creative
Jack-O-Lanterns.
The Calhoun Community
College Commemorative
Walkway
Alumni, faculty, staff and friends
now have the opportunity to create a
new tradition at Calhoun Community
College through the Foundation’s
Commemorative Walkway project. This
landscaped area will help beautify the
campus and proceeds will support
students who will lead us into the new
millennium.
Through the Commemorative
Walkway project, the Foundation will
continue to assist 23 clubs and organizations and over 40 departmental
programs. Other Foundation priorities
include scholarships, campus beautification, and the Partners in Progress
campaign.
“We believe this walkway will
become a focal point of the campus,”
Foundation Director Dr. Cathy
Hansberry said. “The Commemorative
Walkway will be constructed in front of
Kelley Gymnasium on the Decatur
campus, and will enable anyone to
contribute to the college in a meaningful way. The walkway will be a daily
reminder of the people who have made
Calhoun Community College a strong

Calhoun employees made the first
gifts to the project by contributing to
the purchase of bricks in memory of
former College employees Bertha
Bailey, Betsy Cantrell, Wendy Williams,
and Dr. Lynn Headrick. To date, a total
of 116 engraved bricks have been
purchased.
Construction of the walkway,
landscaping and installation of the first
group of engraved bricks is expected to
be complete by Honors’ Day
ceremonies this spring.
If you are interested in being a part
of the Commemorative Walkway by
purchasing a brick for yourself or in
the memory of or in tribute to someone
else, contact the Foundation Office at
