Whereas, Dr. Linda Manning Hayes earned her Ph.D. in Philosophy of Education and Bachelor of Science degree from the University of South Carolina. She earned her Master of Science degree in Library Supervision from the University of Tennessee; and
Whereas, Dr. Hayes' professional career has been wide and varied and includes employment as the Law Librarian at Emory University School of Law, Director of Incentive Consortium Dillon-Marion Counties, Adjunct Professor at the University of South Carolina, and Principal of Maple Junior High School in Dillon, South Carolina; and

Whereas, her moto, "Born on the banks of Catfish Canal, Baptized at Catfish Creek Baptist Church, and Lives where Catfish Creek and Catfish Canal Join" personifies her love for Dillon County and its citizens; and
