Buie, who was a Harnett County native, taught and coached at schools in Harnett and Lee counties before being hired by CCCC in 1973 as an instructor in the recreation technology program. In 1975, he became the college's first coordinator of Continuing Education for Harnett County. He served as dean of Continuing Education from 1977 until his retirement in 2002. He left a legacy of service that helped lay the foundation for what the college has become. Buie passed away in 2007. For information on establishing scholarships or endowments, contact Glover at 919-718-7231 or dglover@cccc.edu . The CCCC Foundation is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization affiliated with, but independent of, the college. It receives donations on behalf of CCCC to promote the educational mission of the college and assist students through scholarships and grants.
