On behalf of the MGCCC Alumni/Foundation Office, I am pleased to present the summer 2014 edition of Action magazine. This edition will feature the remarkable achievements of MGCCC students, alumni and faculty. At MGCCC, we are committed to teaching and learning and student success, and our exceptional faculty members play a large part in our fulfillment of those commitments. On March 18, the 44th Annual Spring Reception honoring Instructors of the Year and Difference Makers was held at the Hospitality and Resort Management building at the Jefferson Davis Campus, with employees, friends and family celebrating the success of these MGCCC employees. Congratulations to our outstanding instructors: Dr. Kelly Rouse, Jefferson Davis Campus; Marc Poole, Jackson County Campus; Robin Lyons, Perkinston Campus. The Difference Maker honorees recognized were David Newbill, District Office; Betty Stringfellow; Jackson County Campus; June Bounds, Jefferson Davis Campus; and Trey Robertson, Perkinston Campus. Scholarships that ease the financial burden of college are also contributors to student success. The MGCCC Foundation hosted its 2014 Annual Scholarship Gala on April 14 to generate funds for much- needed scholarships. The Gala, silent auction and roast of Mississippi Tourism Director Malcolm White produced more than $115,000 in proceeds—a record year! The largest donation for the gala was given by alumnus Prentiss Havens, whose scholarship fund is featured in the magazine. On May 8 we celebrated our graduates at the Mississippi Coast Coliseum during the 2014 Commencement Ceremony. This year we conferred more than 3,000 degrees, reflecting a 37.9 percent increase! I hope all of our recent graduates stay connected through the MGCCC Alumni Association and Foundation. If you are not a member of the Alumni Association, I encourage you to join. Also, please contact our MGCCC Foundation to learn more about establishing a scholarship and/or planned giving options. Best wishes for an enjoyable summer, and thank you for your support.

Hutchisson Jr. Papers Dates: 1856-1956 (bulk 1927-1956) Quantity: 81.2 linear feet Abstract: Blueprints, correspondence, drawings, etching plates, news clippings, and a scrapbook related to the business dealings and genealogy of architect Clarence L. Hutchisson Jr. Accession: 10-09-267 ; 267-1993 Biographical Note: Clarence L. Hutchisson Jr., the last of the locally celebrated Hutchisson architects, was born in 1902 in Mobile, Alabama. From 1926 to 1932 Hutchisson worked in the office of his father, Clarence L. Hutchisson Sr. Between 1940 and 1945, Hutchisson trained as an engineer and would serve as chief architect for the Mobile Corps of Engineers. During his career, he designed a variety of structures in the Mobile area. Like his mother, Henrietta Homer Hutchisson, he was interested in the genealogy of the Homer family and he and his mother gathered information about several of his bloodlines. Much of this genealogical correspondence took place with his cousin Annie Homer Wilson and pertains to the Homer family in Nova Scotia, Canada. Hutchisson died in December 1993. Scope and Contents: This collection contains etching plates, news clippings, a scrapbook, and the business stamp of Clarence L. Hutchisson Jr. In addition, the collection is made up of a wide selection of correspondence, both business and private, contracts, building specifications, blueprints, and other related architectural documents. Of particular importance are the 200 architectural drawings of structures designed by the Hutchissons (ca. 1908-1972). These drawings are indexed by address as well as the client's name.

My father had to sell his business and relocate in Hot Springs. But apparently, my mother recovered sufficiently to have me in 1929. I only lived in Hot Springs about three years and I grew up in Hattiesburg, Forrest Co. Mississippi.

  • Total Quality in Organizations
    CHAPTER 2 Total Quality In Organizations Teaching Notes This chapter introduces the concept of quality in production and service systems and develops the idea that quality is central to effective operation of these systems. Students should be encouraged to develop an understanding of the fact that quality is not an "add-on" to organizational processes, but that it is "a way of doing business." Key objectives should be: To understand and appreciate the contributions of W. Edwards Deming, Joseph Juran, and Philip Crosby who are recognized as the most influential thinkers and leaders of modern quality management. A. V. Feigenbaum and Kaoru Ishikawa have also made significant contributions to modern quality management practices. To learn Deming’s philosophy, based on improving products and services by reducing uncertainty and variation in design, manufacturing, and service processes, driven by the leadership of top management. To appreciate Deming’s key tenets, encompassed in The Deming Chain Reaction, his 14 Points representing the practices that Deming advocated for achieving quality excellence, and the four simple elements that he called a System of Profound Knowledge: o Appreciation for a system o Understanding variation o Theory of knowledge o Psychology To define a system as a set of functions or activities within an organization that work together for the aim of the organization. Systems thinking is critical in applying quality principles because the organizational linkages among various functions of an organization must be in alignment to meet the needs of customers and other stakeholders. To understand that variation exists in any production and service process, generally due to factors inherent in the design of the system, which cannot easily be controlled.

As a result this series documents highlights of Whitten’s career between 1932 and 1994.
