We cannot live only for ourselves. A thousand
fibers connect us with our fellow-men; and along those fibers, as
sympathetic threads, our actions run as causes, and they come back to us as
effects.

Clayton State – Fayette Rides Through Peachtree City on July 4
7/26/08 (3:22 p.m.) If you saw a cap-and-gown-decorated
golf cart in the recent Peachtree City Fourth of July Parade, you might
not have needed the orange signs to know that Fayette County’s own higher
education site, Clayton State University – Fayette, had gotten into the
spirit of the Fourth.
Led by Clayton State – Fayette Director and Assistant
Vice President of Academic Outreach Dr. Kevin Demmitt, nine individuals
and two golf carts from Clayton State took part in the annual parade in
front of 12,000 people. Riding and walking along with the two decorated
two golf carts (one with the cap and gown, the other with a patriotic
theme) and giving out Clayton State magnetic dry erase boards were Clayton
State faculty, staff and students.
Those walking in the parade were, in addition to Demmitt:
student worker Danielle Chapman and her family; administrative assistant
Kathy Stevens; academic advisor Bill Hagans and his family; Dr. Michael
Deis, director of the Clayton State MBA program, Assistant Professor of
History Dr. Randall Gooden, MBA student Monika Klingler; Clayton State
student Michaela Dolhancyk and student worker Krista Hartsell. All except
Deis (who’s from nearby Newnan) are also residents of Fayette County.
A unit of the University System of Georgia, Clayton
State University is an outstanding comprehensive metropolitan university
located 15 miles southeast of downtown Atlanta.
