I look forward to once again being a Trustee for SCC. We are very fortunate to have an excellent staff and wonderful students that make SCC a true asset to this community.”
Dr. Bill Starling, President of Sampson Community College, also expressed his enthusiasm for Spell’s return, stating in a press release, “On behalf of our staff and faculty, I want to welcome Chuck back to the Board of Trustees following his recent appointment by the North Carolina Senate.
