AUGUSTA - The Reverend Enoch Ward has come full circle in his faith - from depending on God when he was the first black student to live in a Georgia Tech dorm, to becoming a minister at an Augusta church 30 years later. <br>
<br>
Ward moved into the dorm in 1964 when he transferred to Georgia Tech from Paine College. It was a difficult time, but Ward went on to become the university's first black chemical engineering graduate. <br>
<br>
Ward said his roommate was excited to meet him at first until he called his parents. The next day the roommate and his bags were gone. <br>
<br>
But most students treated him well, and he graduated with his degree in 1967. <br>
<br>
Ward worked for Dow Chemical and Procter And Gamble until the early 1980s before starting a real estate business with a friend. Soon, another calling caught his attention. <br>
<br>
Ward is now pursuing a master's degree in theology, and his church - First Metropolitan Baptist Church in Augusta - has grown from 11 members to 50.
