Miller F. Whittaker Library


"In 1967, South Carolina State College received $1m. from the South Carolina Assembly and the Higher Education Facilities Act to build a new library. The new structure, the Miller F. Whittaker Library was dedicated in 1969. The library was named in honor of Dr. Miller F. Whittaker, the third president of South Carolina State University. The library consisted of two floor levels and a lower level. In 1979, a third level - the mezzanine floor, was added to increase the seating and shelving capacity for users and resources. The library's integrated online system was implemented in 1991. Users have access to the collection through a computerized system." Quoted from library website http://library.scsu.edu/library.html 

Services provided by the library: http://library.scsu.edu/Departments/Departments.htm

"Today, the Miller F. Whittaker Library maintains over 302,768 volumes, 1,028,132 microforms, and subscribes to over 974 journals and magazines. The library serves as a partial depository for a select group of Federal documents and a sub-depository for State publications. A variety of programs and services are offered to meet the needs and expectations of library users." Quoted from library website http://library.scsu.edu/library.html

Music James Brown Video

"James Brown's influence transcends his lifetime and his country. He was the most influential figure in the entertainment industry in the 20th Century. He transformed the concert arena into a full entertainment experience and made his mark on every aspect of society including fashion and style, music, dance, business, politics and social action. It is both exciting and appropriate that the I.P. Stanback Museum and Planetarium was selected to preserve the legacy of the Godfather of Soul." Quoted from the information packet on James Brown Exhibit given at S.C. State's I.P. Stanback Museum and Planetarium.















"James Brown was born in Barnwell County, South Carolina, had a difficult childhood, but decided to create his estate in Beech Island, South Carolina. He was an amateur astronomer. Brown was committed to educating young people who needed assistance in getting an education. As a social activist, he spook out for social injustice and was "Black and Proud". The Stanback is proud to present this bigger than life figure that made a huge imprint on the world." Quoted from the information packet on James Brown Exhibit given at S.C. State's I.P. Stanback Museum and Planetarium.

Do it for the Vine...James Brown Style!

South Carolina State University has a James Brown Tribute on its campus. The James Brown Tribute is at the I.P. Stanback Museum. It shows the influence that James Brown had on society. The effects that James Brown had on the American society is grand, from music, dance, and style to politics. James Brown left so much more than a impact he left an imprint. From influencing the dress styles of Elvis and Prince to having music samples in very famous songs by artist Jay-Z and Kanye West. The influence of James Brown can hardly be contained in the Stanback Museum, that's why I bought that influence to the vine. Hit it one time James Brown!!!!!!












And along with the here are some of my classmates reactions to the James Brown Tribute! Hey!

kizoa

Kizoa is a program that is used to transform regular slideshows to extraordinary features. This is my first time using this program, but is was very interesting and easy to use. You can all types of elements within the program. From different genres of musics to various but several types of effects. The end result that it gives the slideshow is effective yet powerful, fun and one of a kind. All I can say is if you are interested go ahead and check out my example that I made with this program. A little piece of the....Bulldogs!

Bull.Barb. Commercial

New students often struggle with college expense and have tight funds. Being tight with money, most of these students also don't know the surroundings of Orangeburg. Many students do not even have transportation. As students we're always looking for the least expensive services but yet quality. Where could that be though? Is it close and inexpensive but provides me with character? Exploring around campus with my fellow bulldogs, I found a place that works and answers all those questions! As well as saves money but provides uniqueness to each of its customers.
