reetingsfi'om the Maryville College Campus!
The last fall ot the century! And an exciting tall it is! Maryville College has grown to the 1,000 mark in enrollment for the first time in history. Construction is underway on two major projects: the rebuilding of Fayerweather Hall and the renovation and expansion of Harriett Hall to create a splendid new student center. A b e a u t i t u I I \' III restored Center for Campus Ministry is in frequent use. The College is implementing a major technology initiative that
promises to be nothing short of transforming for the campus. And we are celebrating recognition for the fifth time by U.S. News eJ" World Report as a top- 10 Southern regional liberal arts college.
One hundred years ago things
were also exciting for Maryville College. Collegiate enrollment had grown from the 13 students present when the College reopened in the fall of 1866 to 93 in the fall of 1900 (plus another 309 preparatory students). Fayerweather Science Hall was new. Bartlett Hall was almost completed as Maryville's first student center. The fourth president of the College, Dr. Samuel Ward Boardman, was entering his last year of service after presiding over the decade that saw more progress
than any decade since the College was founded in 1819, progress that includ- ed the addition of the technological advancement of the time - electric lights!
I sometimes wonder what President Boardman and the faculty, staff direc- tors and students of the College would have ptojected for Maryville as they stood on the threshold of the 20th cen- tury. Would they have predicted an enrollment growth of nearly 1,000 per- cent by the year 2000? Would they have foreseen the 40-percent increase in cam.pus acreage and the tripling of major campus Ir buildings? Would they have expect- ed several major curriculum revi- sions with new major programs ranging from Environmental Studies to
American Sign Language? Would they have guessed that the prepara- tory department, with about three times the enroll- ment of the colle- giate department, would disappear entirely? Could they possibly have extrapolated from electric lights to the World Wide Web in every resi- dence hall room?
In this issue o( FOCUS we look back over the century that has passed since Dr. Boardman's day. At Maryville College we are keenly aware that awareness of and appreciation for the past is important even as we look toward another new century Knowing that the progress of the MC2000 period is built on the foundation laid down by others, we give thanks for all those whose labors
have brought Maryville College to the dawn of the 21st century. The overar- ching aim of the MC2000 Plan has been to assure that the College enters the new century in a position of the greatest strength that it has enjoyed in its 181-year history. I invite all the readers oi FOCUS to reflect with us on Maryville's progress during the century just past, to celebrate with us the achievements of the present, and to envision with us the Maryville College of the future.
The envisioning of the future centu- ry is, of course, a tricky business. The best futurist among us can't possibly imagine the world or the College of the year 2100. (If you doubt this, find a magazine from, say, 1950, and see what was projected for the year 2000!) Change in the world around us is increasing at a breath-taking pace. All we can say with certainty is that the Maryville College of 2100 will be as different from the college of 2000 as Dr. Boardman's college was from Maryville today - and that's probably understated.
What is important is to recognize that we not only can shape Maryville's future, but that we have an obligation to do so. We have an obligation both to build and preserve, to reach for new heights and to hold firmly to the faith, the principles, the sense of mission that have brought this college through an amazing century. As we enter the homestretch of the MC2000 Plan, we are beginning a new strategic planning process that will assure that the College is not merely buffeted about by external changes, but that we set thoughtfully and boldly the course we want to follow.

In 1912, aviation legend Orville Wright responded to a letter written to him by Samuel Boardman, then president emeritus ofMaryville College,
"Your very kind letter of June I4th was duly received, " Wright wrote. "The matter of combining the principle of the balloon and flying machine has been considered by a number of persons, and some actual attempts have been made to do it, but without success. If the gas bag is made Imge enough to have any lifting effect, its resistance is so great and its speed so slow that the efficiency of the aeroplanes is almost entirely overcome. "
Ten years after Boardmans death in 1917, the world would become a little smaller and life's pace would become a little faster when Charles Lindbergh would land the Spirit of St. Louis in Paris, following a 33-hour solo fight across the AtLmtic Ocean.
One has to wonder if Samuel Boardman ever envisioned the cLiy when the masses would travel by air ...or when the president ofMaryville College himself (or herself) would depend on such a device - "flying machine" or "aeroplane" - to visit constituents and donors across the country.
Certainly the thought of receiving Orville Wright's response by fax or e-mail would have astonished even Boardman, ivho was highly educated and forward-thinking.
Today, Maryville College lives with these realities - the airplane, the fax machine, the Internet - and many others. Science and technology guar- antee that the 21st century will be filled with more change. But one reality of yesteryear rings as true today as it did in 1900: Maryville College is

". . . Maryville gathers within its walls an exceptionally earnest body of young people. Many of them have some definite vocation in mind before entering, and lend all their energies toward adequate preparation for it. " - Samuel Tyndale Wikon, 1916
As a high school senior, Nikki Note knew that she was being called to be a minister. What she didn't know was where God was calling her to begin her higher education.
The daughter of a Presbyterian minister and a young woman deeply involved in Presbyterian youth organizations, Noto eventually setded on a Presbyterian-affiliated school in South Carolina.
But it was not for her.
"What I was looking fot was a school with a connectedness to the church and the communi- ty," Noto explained. "1 didn't feel that at all where I was."
At that point, the Sweetwater, Tenn., native remembered a conversation she had had with Maryville College Chaplain Stephen Nickle prior to her first semester in South Carolina.
"Stephen Nickle's father was my father's pto- fessor at Columbia Seminary in Decatut, Ga.," Noto said. "We had met somewhere, and 1 told
FOCUS Autumn 1999 2
him where I was going to college.
"He asked me, Are you sure you want to go there?'" she continued. "When I told him I was sure, he asked me to keep Maryville in mind in case things didn't work out."
Things didn't work out, and Noto trans- ferred to Maryville College for the second semester of her freshman year. But she still was- n't sure whether or not the East Tennessee school was where she was meant to be.
"I assumed that I would come here for a semester and then go elsewhere," she said. "But here I found what I was looking for: a connec- tion to the community and a connection to the church as a whole."
At Maryville, Noto is double majoring in religion and theatre. Completing the require- ments for two majors demands a lot of class- room and study time, but whatever free time she has left, Noto fills with extracurricular activ- ities that mirror her passions. Noto has become a regular cast member on the MC stage, and she contributes much to the spiritual life of the campus.
It was during the summer of 1998 when Noto and another student, Sara Baker '99, decided to form "Sisters in Spirit," a campus
organization whose purpose is to encourage women on campus to discuss theit faith, become educated about world issues that affect humankind and involve themselves in service.
"We attended the National Network of Presbyterian Women in St. Louis and learned about the need for women to connect on a spir- itual level," Noto said. "We felt that we needed to start a group that would provide that kind of community."
With a mailing list of 70 students. Sisters in Spirit has received a wonderfiil response from women on campus, Noto said. Last May, the ^ group was recognized as the best student organ- 7 ization by the College's Student Development Office.
Noto said she knows she will be a leader in the church "in some way" following graduation. Seminary is a likely possibility for Noto; infor- / mation from McCormick and Columbia semi-"' naries is already appearing in her mailbox. The Presbyterian Church's Young Adult Intern Program interests her, as well, because of the opportunity to serve in women's ministries.
Her experiences at Maryville College have opened her eyes to the broad scope of ministry, she said.
"Never let a professor of this institution say, as one of the professors of one of our larger insti- tutions is reported to have said: 'We are not responsible for the character or the morals or the vices of our students; only for their instruction. ' Let this College continue to accept responsibili- ty for character as well as teaching. " - Rev. E. A. Elmore of the Synod of Tennessee at the inauguration of Dr. Wilson, 1901

said. "Over and over I hear how these teachers changed and shaped the lives of these former students.
"Most often the emphasis is on the standards thev set, the "enuine care thev demonstrated tor
their students and the imparted," he added.
Sadly, many of the faculty members Dr. Gibson reads about have passed on. And
aluable skills they
"They're incredible people doing interesting things with their lives," Nikki Noto said of her professors and faculty mentors. "1 feel privi- leged to have them as teachers."
Perhaps no thread runs more visibly and strongly through Marwille College's history than that of faculty admiration.
Dr. Russell Parker
and Elizabeth Jackson

several current
Mar}'ville College tacult)' members are on that
legend-track.
And to alumna and registrar Martha Hess '67, there are striking similarities between the faculty members she learned from 30 years ago

Dr. Wayne Anderson, the College's eighth and those with whom she works today, president, once told an audience in 1982 that On her drive home late one afternoon, she

ers" - letters from former Maryville College stu- dents who wished to thank faculty members for having "profound impacts" on their lives and showing concern for them as individuals.
Maryville College President Dr. Gerald Gibson frequently heats similar testimonials as he travels the country' for alumni gatherings.
"The facult)' I hear about the most often are Arda Walker '40, Fred Griffitts '25, Dr. Hunter '14, Professor Howell '22, Dr. Orr '12, Alt Bushing '43, Carolyn Blair, Mrs. Cummings, Elizabeth Jackson," the president

Threadgill and several students on campus, labeling the trees. She said it immediately brought back fond memories of Dr. A. Randolph Shields '34, who chaired the Division of Natural Sciences for many years before retiring in the early 1 970s.
The combination of gruff exterior and kind heart seen in Threadgill also makes her think of Shields.
"He's a wonderful advisor. He cares about his students," Hess said of the biology professor "I never worr)' about Paul's advisees being short on
credits or requirements
for graduation."
Both instructors ot primarily treshman composition courses, Lynn King Coning '89 and Jessie Katherine Johnson '21 would have taught in the same building and enjoyed each other's company had 30 years not separated the retirement of one and the employment of the other, Hess specu- lated.
"Miss Johnson was a
''^''l^
grammarian with a capital 'G.' She spoke very precisely and clearly," the registrar said. "Lynn's speech is also ver\' accurate and precise. I'm sure her teaching is like that."
Johnson was a beauty queen while at Maryville College in the early part ot the centu- ry, and Coning's blond hair and fair features serve as another reminder of their simi- larities.
To the best teachet she ever had in her life, Hess compares Dr. Dean Bolden, professor of sociologj' and for- mer dean ot the College.
"Dr. Arda Walker gave her students the won- derful foundation vou have to have when you study history," Hess said. "Her travel experi- ences made the difference. She brought those experiences into the classroom, so her students learned more than the dates, the places and the people of histot)'. They learned about the hearts of the people."
Bolden, who took a sabbatical and traveled the Middle East last year, will teach the first World Cultures 350: Comparative Cultures class this spring.
"The basis ot his teaching comes from his travels," Hess said. "He has to travel to be the teacher he is."
Local interest - and not so much interna- tional - creates for Hess a similarit}' between Dr. Russell Parker and Dr. Chad Berry.
Parker, who chaired the history department until his death in 1987, studied the histon,' of the Alcoa community and was interested in the Cherokee history of the area. Berry, a native Hoosier and assistant professor of history, has become an active member of the city of Maryville's Historic Zoning Commission and the College Hill Historic District. He works to preserve the historical neighborhoods in Mar)'ville.
Bert)' said he is "honored" to be compared to Parker. Before the history department moved into Anderson Hall, Bern.' occupied the same office as Parker and said he often "felt [Parker's] presence."
"We are both American historians," Berry said of himself and Parker. "And another simi- larity is that Dr. Parker taught Aftican history here. I teach southern African history now."

Hess never met the legendan' Lady Jane Bancroft Smith Alexander, but from what she has read, Hess said Dr. Susan Schneibel is doing for the Humanities what Lady Jane did for the division in the early 1900s.
But the similarities don't stop there, Hess said.
"The breadth ot what they can teach is very similar," the registrar said. "Lady Jane taught French, German, history and literature. She was also very educated - I think she spent a year at the Sorbonne.
"Susan has studied abroad and teaches simi- lar courses, " Hess continued.
Because of the collective efforts of Alexander and Schneibel, the English and histon,' depart- ments of Maryville College have been "particu-
Lady Jane Alexander Dr. Susan Schneibel
larly strong" and will continue to be strong, she said.
"The general object of the courses of study is the thorough and symmetrical development of the intellectual powers and moral character of the student - not so much to make specialists as to graduate men fidly equipped for the highest demands that may be made of college-bred men everywhere. The liberally educated man is best equipped for achieving success in any special work to which he may be called in subsequent life." -The Maryville College Bulletin, 1905
For the Senior Thesis project she will begin during the Spring 2000 semester, Nikki Noto will combine her religion and theatre majors into a single project. Currently, she believes that project will take the form of a play based on the biblical book of Esther.
Noto said she is interested in studying the feminism demonstrated by Queen Vashn and Queen Esther.
While students at the turn of the 20th cen- tury would have certainly studied the Bible, they would not have been required to write a Senior Thesis. Though several students wrote theses as part of an Honors Work program, it wasn't until the curriculum revision of 1947 that they had to undertake the research and writing project (then called "Special Studies").
More than five curriculum revisions have
occurred since 1900, but general education courses have always reflected the values of a lib- eral arts education.
The 1905 catalog places courses into 10 "groups," which would likely be considered "majors" by today's standards. The groups were; classical, Greek, Latin, English, English litera- ture, modern languages, chemistry, biology, mathematics and economic and political sci- ence. Eight of the 13 graduates in 1905 con- centrated their studies in Latin.
In 1910, students were required to complete 36 courses before earning the bachelor of arts degree. By 1923, the requirement had changed to 126 semester hours. The "liberal arts course," as outlined in the 1923 catalog, recommends a balance ot Bible, math, histor}', natural science, ancient or modern languages, English and phys- ical training courses for freshman and sopho- more students.
Dr. Edwin Hunter, who served as dean of curriculum from 1935 until 1957, started the first formal counseling and orientation pro- grams for freshmen in 1931. Honors work was offered in 1 932, which included comprehensive' ' exams at the end of study. By 1937, compre- , hensive exams were adopted as a requirtotent ; tor graduation. ^ f^ ^ ■: ~'''
Hunter led the curriculum reviskm of l^Aj., for which he and other facul^f'meEHbers spent three years planning. Tjze Special Studies, tfie "cornerSfqr(e" '
requirement was consideS
of that revision, but sUo included two other
objectives: a strond^tore of general education courses (with an emphasis 0n Western World history and literatufe^_:lii^ea|^ pf strictly American history and literatitfdjdajjd a deduc- tion in both the numbet of courses, offergd.aiJd' the number of classes a student cwild t^ J)er semester. The latter objective was adopted to give students greater opportunity to concen- trate their studies.
Twenty-five majors (not including teacher licensure) were offered in that curriculum.
The next major revision was implemented in the fall of 1967 and designed to "take into account the latest developments in education." In contrast to the curriculum of the 1940s and 1950s, the core curriculum had four new emphases. First, it attempted to make clearer the interrelationships among the disciplines. Secondly, it strengthened the courses and requirements for non-Western studies. Thirdly, it brought into the curriculum - through the introduction of philosophy courses for the freshmen - a concern for values. Lastlv, the cur-
riculum of 1967 created more opportunities for students to complete experiential studies.
Courses that offered both interdisciplinary study and independent study were offered dur- ing the four-week period between the end of fall term and the beginning of Christmas break, beginning in 1967. Called "intetim," the course was eventually moved to three weeks in January - after Christmas break and before spring semester.
In the early 1980s, the curriculum was fine- tuned to meet more expectations in the job market. New majors like computer science, management, international studies and pre-pro- fessional health sciences joined the relatively new major in Sign Language Interpretation (a formal major since 1974).
Students wishing to minor in available stud- ies were able to aftet the curriculum revision of 1982. Mountain Challenge participation became a popular one-hour course for freshmen m 1986.
The latest cutriculum revision was imple- mented in 1996. A curriculum task force of fac- ulty, staff and students submitted for approval general education courses that "emphasize the cultivatiorv-Bf those intellectual and personal qualities mat' mark the educated petson." The college catalogijeads: "Through the enhance- ment of skills and knowledge, the deepening of setisitivities and the clarification of personal purpose, students learn to deal responsibly with a world of uncertainty and accelerating change."
Today, 60 credit hours of "core" curricultan^i courses are required for a bachelor^ of aff^ , degree. In addition to classes in composition," statistics. Biblical studies, fine, arts And natural and social sciences, students nb\y enroll in "seminars" - freshman .;^d s^n^rSfeijjjnars - that "provide coheregcfe alorig.witB solid begin-^ nings and a clear cufmination to thfe libeaal arts exp^ienee." ,;-'
Vatiies and ethics are issufsyiscussed in each of the 49 majors offered at JMaryville. It is this distinction of the , M,aryvill^ ■ College general education curricillum' that-^ led the John Templeton Foundation to, tank the .CoUfege in its honor roll for "character-building" Cpllegel^.
And it is this genetal education cu^^^s^iluTrl under which Noto will gtaduate in_^01. it's given her a "good foundation to stand^tji' .^^e^ said, wherever God calls her to stand. "^ .^-,^^
"Being in the pulpit - I'm open to that. Or being a missionary or an educator," she said. "Maryville College has taught me that I can do these things, and I feel prepared to do them."

Within
these
Halls
hy Laurie Grogan, Director of Public Relations
If walls could tcilk, the historic buildings on the Maryville College campus would be humming with the stories of generations. Until structures gain the ability to speak, how- ever, they must find their voices in the people who live, work, and learn within them.
One of the most prominent of these voices is certainly Dr. Sarah McNiell '53, who experi- enced lite at the College as both a student and a
campus, Anderson Hall, was completed in 1870 and has an individual designation on the National Register, which was granted in 1975. Thanks to its distinctive tower, there is probably no other building on campus more closely asso- ciated with Maryville College. Beyond its rec- ognizable Federalist facade, however, Anderson Hall has stories to tell that reveal more about the character of the College and its impact on

role in the formation of the Maryville College Historic District. Comprising nine buildings, the Historic District was officially placed on the National Registet of Historic Places in 1982. Five more buildings were registered in subse- quent years.
"Historically the college built as the need arose and when the money was available, and built in the style that was popular at the time.
Maryville College's policy of excluding none from its benefits by reason of race or color, not only set it apart from other institutions in the region, but also helped the college in its attempts to raise funds for Anderson Hall. Researching the history of the building, McNiell discovered a letter written in 1869 by a lieutenant in the Knoxville office of the Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen and Abandoned

According to McNiell, such architectural diversity is common, especially among southern institutions. Much like Maryville College, many schools have a central cam- pus of older buildings with more contemporary struc- tures on the periphery.
While McNiell noted that a more uniform con- struction style might help to foster a stronger sense of community, variety also has its merits. Each build- ing has its own personality, its own distinguishing fea- tures that link it to its era.

Anderson's Fayerweather Addition, which was completed in 1892, involved a unique fund- raising effort as well as the personal fijnd-raising plan of a Maryville native with dreams of acquiring land in Oklahoma. McNiell recount- ed a story told to her by Adele McKenzie about her father, Thomas Brody As a young man, Brody drove the brick wagon used on the proj- ect to finance a ticket to Oklahoma where he hoped to stake a claim for land. After reaching his original goal, he reconsidered and continued on the job long enough to earn money for a return ticket in case his dreams of acquiring a homestead failed to materialize.
Of all the legends surrounding the buildings on the Maryville College campus, the most retold and beloved revolves around Bartlett Hall and the heroic efforts of student BCin Takahashi. Under his direction, fellow students made more than 300,000 bricks for the structure, and he spent two years after graduation diligently rais- ing funds before returning to Japan. Completed in 1901, Bartlett Hall served as the Maryville College athletic center until the 1923 comple- tion of Alumni Gym and housed the YMCA until 1970. Currently undergoing extensive restoration and construction of a new addition, Bartlett Hall will be home to a new student cen- ter in fill 2000.
Throughout the years, although architectur- al themes changed, the spirit and determination that made Bartlett Hall possible remained steadfast. Following the loss of the original Carnegie Hall dormitory to fire in 1916, stu- dents and faculty cleaned 80,000 bricks from the old building for use in constructing its replacement, which was built in 1917. In their book By Faith Endowed, Carolyn Blair and Arda S. Walker '40, tell of the especially ardent efforts of the students, faculty and surrounding community to raise funds for rebuilding the dormitory.
Another common thread running through the tapestry of the Maryville College history is a sense of utility and resourcefiilness. As needs changed, many of the buildings took on roles that were quite different than originally planned, and often the later use proved to be even more fitting.
A perfect example of this metamorphosis lies in Lamar Memorial Library Located in the cen- ter of campus, it was built as a memorial to Thomas Jefferson Lamar. With its turret and stained glass, the building had from its very

ALUMNI SPOTLIGHT
^^^ightfoot
By Karen E. Beaty '94
Director of News and Sports Information
Although his contributions to Maryville College are widely known, Samuel T. Wilson is a person personally remembered by tew today - some 35 years after his death.
Viola Lightfoot '34 remembers him.
"He was nice. Impressive," she said. "He was a tall sort of person, a nice looking gendeman; sort of had an air about him. 1 was expecting him to look like that."
Lightfoot met the Mary\'ille College alum- nus (1878) and president emeritus in 1930, just days after she arrived at the College lor under- graduate study. A student assistant to Registrar Anna Jones '17, Lightfoot was called upon to t)'pe letters to family members and other docu- ments lor Dr. Wilson. Later, she aided the pres- ident emeritus in his "Second Century Beginnings" addition to his 1916 history book "A Century of Maryville College."
"Miss Jones admired him so much. She wanted to send him the best that she could for what he wanted done," Lightfoot said. "I con- sidered it quite a compliment."
One of only three students who could t)'pe proficiently, Lightfoot said she worked for Jones almost every working hour that she was not in class. For 1 5 cents an hour, she took dictation and typed in Dr. Wilson's home on Indiana Avenue. Defying the rule that forbid female stu- dents from going downtown without a chaper- one, she also took Dr. Wilson's letters to the Maryville Post Office - alone.
"Dr. Wilson knew how strict the rules were," Lightfoot said. "If I was caught. Dr. Wilson told me to refer the night watchman to him. He said: 'I'll take care of that.'"
It was during such encounters that Lightfoot said she would glimpse a "rwinkle in his eye." Although described as "puritanical" in a Maryville Times editorial written at the time of his death. Dr. Wilson had a "keen sense of humor" and a mischievous side in his latter

years, according to Lightfoot. When her work for him needed correcting, he always corrected it "in good humor" and without harsh criticism.
"But I tried to be carefiil," Lightfoot added, "because I wanted to please him."
When Viola Lightfoot, 90, hears or reads the name of Samuel Wilson today, the sessions of t}'ping and writing in his home come to mind. What she remembers of his conversation and history book is the admiration he held for Maryville College and its founder. Dr. Isaac Anderson.
"He was always talking about how Mar}'ville College stood out," she remembered. "He was proud that the College offered religious educa- tion - and that there was no detriment to the quality of the teaching because of [a religious influence]."
From those sessions, she also remembers stu-

dents interrupting their work to ask Dr. Wilson about vocational choices and courses. Though she didn't know it at the time, Lightfoot would be offering the same advice to students who sought her counsel in the Registrar's Office only a few years later.
Mentors
Viola Lightfoot almost missed her own grad- uation. Figuring requirements and rolling up diplomas until the ver\' last second, Lightfoot hurriedly slipped into the procession with 125 of her classmates and graduated cum laude.
Jones, the College's registrar since 1930, had passed away a month prior to Commencement, leaving Lightfoot and a staff assistant to deter- mine who was graduating and who wasn't. Jones' death was "scary" to the student assistant for more reasons than the workload.
"She was my mentor. She made a lot of deci- sions for me," Lightfoot said of Jones. "I was fascinated with biology and couldn't make up my mind what to major in. She persuaded me to major in English ... She thought I'd be bet- ter in that kind of work than [in] teaching."
Before her death in April of 1934, Jones had permission to hire Lightfoot as assistant to the registrar. Lightfoot continued working after graduation, keeping the "assistant" title even though she was doing more leading than assist- ing in the office. In the late 1940s, MarvT/ille College President Dr. Ralph W. Lloyd '15 gave her the official title of "Registrar. " She remained the registrar until her retirement in 1974.
In more than 40 years of service to the College, Lightfoot humbly said she has only one "claim to fame." It is not the student records that she kept meticulously. It is not the self-imposed requirement to learn the pronunciation of ever)' student's name. Nor is it the overtime she worked to stay current on changing requirements and an unyielding schedule.
Her claim to fame is the very thing that Dr. Wilson and Miss Jones modeled for her: a willingness to lis- ten and a willingness to advise.
"I would listen to stu- dents, listen to their griefs," she said. 'A lot of times I went beyond what was required. I was probably more patient than some teachers."
In the Rome, Ga., apartment where Lightfoot now lives, the walls are lined with art- work created by Maryville College students who tried to repay the mentor in the registrar's office.
A watercolor of Anderson Hall reminds her of an art student she "prodded, argued with, fussed at and encouraged" to graduate. It worked; Lightfoot watched her walk across the Commencement stage.
The former registrar occasionally receives letters from former students. They are the rea- sons, she said, she wouldn't choose biology if she - or Miss Jones - had it to do all over again. "I made several friends, and I liked the aca- demic atmosphere, but I also learned a lot about human beings and relationships," she said. "I liked my job."

MC ranked one of best in U.S. News ranking
For the fifth time in the last six years, Mar)'\'ille College has been listed in U.S. News and World Reports ranking of the 10 best liberal arts colleges in the South. The national maga- zine annually judges colleges and universities for their academic excellence and publishes rankings in its weekly magazine and education- al guide, "America's Best Colleges. "
The only Tennessee institution listed in the category, Maryviile College ranked seventh and tied with Asbun,' College in Kentucky and Columbia College in South Carolina. Berea College of Kentuck)' ranked first.
"Certainly, we are very pleased to be recog- nized again by U.S. News and World Report."
said Maryviile College President Dr. Gerald W. Gibson. "High school students conducting col- lege searches use rankings like the one U.S. News publishes when deciding what schools to apply to, so we hope this ranking help our recruiting efforts this year."
Mar}^^^ tied for ninth place in the rankings last year. While Gibson admit- ted that he liked the No. 7 slot better, he pointed out that the methodology used by U.S. Neivs and World Report to choose "Top 10" schools changes year to year. The magazine may compare thi same measures of a qualii'.

Templeton recognizes Maryviile for character and service
"Intelligmce plus character - that is the goal of true education. "
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Mar}'ville College has once again been rec- ognized by the Templeton Foundation for lead- ership in the area of student character develop- ment. Two of the College's programs, the Freshman Curriculum and the Student Literaa- Corps are featured in a guidebook entitled The Templeton Guide: Colleges that Encourage Character Development, which was released nationwide in October. Designed for students, parents, and educators who believe that character matters, The Templeton Guide contains profiles of exemplar)' college programs in ten categories including First Year Programs and Volunteer Service Programs, two areas in which Maryviile College excels.
Since its inception five years ago, the Student Literacy Corps has grown into one of the nation's most respected college-based literacy pro grams, according to Jen Serio of the Student Coalition for Action in Literacy
Education. Serio said Mar\'ville's program is one of the few directed by students and that SCALE often uses the Marndlle College Student Literaq' Corps as a model tor other schools interested in developing their own liter- aq' initiatives.
The Templeton Guide cited as exceptional three areas of the Student Literacy Corps — MC Families, the Blount Count}' Jail, and the Blount County Children's Home. The highest praise came in the summan,' of the profile: "At Mar}'ville College, graduates develop sound val- ues through outstanding examples of ser\'ice." In its description of the Freshman Curriculum, The Templeton Guide said: "By engaging students in application of academic skills to con- crete life situations, the program challenges students to take responsibility for their environment, their soci- ety, and themselves." The quote precisely describes what the College intended to achieve when it developed the current Freshman Curriculum in 1996, said Dr. Pegg}' Cowan, coordinator of the Maryviile College General
Education Curriculum. In honoring the Freshman Curriculum, The Templeton Guide featured Mountain Challenge, Perspectives on the Individual, Perspectives on the Environment, and Perspectives on the American Communit)', noting that such cours- es "lay the foundation for a liberal arts educa- tion that supports Maryviile College students in developing informed ethical judgement, a com- mitment to service and global citizenship, and a sense ot responsibilin' for the common good."
Though recognized in separate categories by the Templeton Foundation, the underlying goal of both programs is the same — to develop lead- ers for productive lives in a changing world, which is an overall goal for the College as well, and one for which the liberal arts education is ideally suited, according to President Gerald Gibson.
"We are very proud of Maryviile College's work to help students develop the strong values that will serve them well beyond their college years, said Gibson. "Character development is a lifelong process, and we believe that colleges and universities have a very important and unique role to play. We are delighted to be among the institutions profiled in The Templeton Guide" said Gibson.

$1.7 million grant expected to transform classroom instruction
In a word, it will be transformational.
That was how Mar)'ville College President Gerald W. Gibson described the impact a Si. 7 million Title III grant will have on academics at Maryville College. The College learned of its selection as a grant recipient in late August.
"What Title III will bring to this campus in terms of equipment, instruction and access to information is hard to imagine," Gibson said. "We are very excited about what this project will mean to Mar)^^^ in the 21st Century and what it will mean to our current and future stu- dents."

The grants are highly competitive. This year, 262 colleges and universities applied for Title III grant funding; only 56 were approved.
Mar}'ville College will receive approximately
$350,000 each year for five years. In the cur- rent academic year, $349,997 will fijnd new computers and printers for all full-time facult)' members, one permanent multimedia "smart" classroom in each of the academic buildings, two mobile multimedia units, one laser-net- worked printer for each division office and basic computer equipment for the start-up of an instructional technology center.

Unlike many grants. Tide III proposals allow colleges and universities to shape the nature of the project - the work plan - to meet the great- est needs of the campus, said Karen Wentz, Mar}'ville College's Tide III Project Director.
"In the proposal, we described the College's strengths, weaknesses and problems," Wentz explained. "And we described the College's strategic plans, setting forth our goals and objectives. The activit}' in the grant is the solu- tion to fulfill aspects of those goals."
The MC2000 Plan, a strategic plan approved by the College's board of directors in 1993, specifically calls for the establishment of a state-ot-the-art instructional technolog}' cen- ter and aims for the development of "instruc- tional use of technolog}' that contributes signif- icantly to the educational experience of stu- dents."

Kevin Hedrick, a senior at Maryville College, was named a Division III College Football Scholar Athlete by the Burger King Corporation.
In honor of Hedrick's outstanding athletic and academic achievements and his commit- ment to mentoring the community's youth, Burger King Corporation donated $10,000 to the Maryville College general scholarship fund in his name. The award was presented by Burger King Franchisee Russ Seus and other Burger King officials during the Oct. 9 Maryville College vs. Bridgewater College home football game.
Kevin's parents, Willie and Marie Hedrick of Sevierville, were on hand for the half-time pres- entation along with Maryville College President Dr. Gerald W. Gibson and Athletic Director Randy Lambert '76.
An engineering major in the dual- degree program at Maryville College, Hedrick has maintained a 3.9 G.P.A., while starting as a defensive end for the Fighting Scots. In addition to his aca- demic and athletic endeavors, Hedrick also serves as a math tutor for both ele- mentar)' and college students. He also works with the Department ol Transportation and is an assistant Sunda) school teacher.

athlete award winners (two from each division) each week.
According to Maryville College Head Football Coach Phil Wilks, Hedrick is respect- ed by his teammates on and off the field.
"He played just as hard and aggressive when
he came here as a freshman as he does now," Wilks told a reporter with the Knoxville News- Sentinel. "He is so quiet and so smart, then he gets on the football field and he really turns it on. He is the kind of person who regardless of what he does, he does it well."

Board members set goal in fiscal year 1998-99, and alumni came
through with a record-breaking 46 percent of alumni making a gift to Maryville College. (The national aver- age of alumni par- ticipation among peer institutions is 32 percent.)
"There is much work to be done,"
said Ned Willatd, directot of annual giving. "In order to reach levels that tival presti- gious institutions, we need to increase the support received from alumni. "
According to Willard, foundations and rankings, like those found in U.S. News and World Report, consider the financial support of alumni as a critical indicator of "customer satisfaction" among its gradu- ates.
Phonathon callers (all MC students) ate working year-round to contact all alumni and ask them for a gift. Willard asked alumni to remember the 50-percent par- ticipation goal when on the phone with student callers.
Three Reasons to Establish Your Own Endowment
There are manv reasons you should consider establishing your own endowment at Maryville College. Here are rhree:
/. Unending Annual Gifts
As a friend of Maryville College, you prob- ably make annual gifts to suppott the College and, quite possibly, gain great personal satisfac- tion from doing so. Our endowment program allows you to make certain that yout annual gifts continue in perpetuity after you are gone. The rule of thumb to "lock in" your annual gift is to give an amount equal to 20 times the annual gift. For example, a bequest of $20,000 to the general college endowment would gener- ate an annual gift of at least $1,000 a year and allow a portion to be reinvestment for future inflation.
Endowment funds ate basically investment funds that pteserve principal and make pay- ments (or gifts) to the College from the earn- ings. Assets are commingled lor the sake of sim- plicity and economies of scale, but the College maintains records of the individual endowment funds. After you are gone, your endowment would take your place in providing annual sup- port for the College. And this could continue indefinitely.
2. A Lasting Legacy
This is one of the most powerful reasons to
FOCUS Autumn 1999 14
establish an endowment. The ongoing nature of these funds provides an unending way to not only support Maryville College, but to remind family and friends of one's deeply held values and commitments.
Grandchildren, great-grandchildren and fur- ther generations will encounter their own her- itage as they see "their" endowment at work. It you want to build a lasting legaq' to benefit the College and inspire people for years to come, establish your own endowment.
3. Financial Stability
MarjTille College derives financial strength from its endowment funds. Just knowing that we can count on a stream of endowment income permits us to make better financial pro- jections and to plan tor the future more confi- dently.
Also, income from endowments allows the College to do some things it might not other- wise be able to do. One donor established an endowment to provide students with scholai- ships for overseas study. Another donor is estab- lishing an endowment to provide scholatships for students who will do service in the area of literacy.
Another point: An organization with strong endowment assets tends to dtaw recognition and prestige as well as support ftom other donors.
Several Possibilities
You can establish your endowment in sever- al ways. You could do it all at once by making a major gift of cash ot marketable assets. You could also start now with a modest amount and add to your endowment later. Or, you could make all the arrangements now to establish your endowment in the future. You can do this through a bequest in yout will or othet planned gift such a charitable gift annuity, insurance policy or even the use of a charitable trust. Those who establish endowments through their estate plans are eligible for membership in the Society of 1819.
You can establish your endowment for a variet)' of purposes. For example, a named scholarship fund can be established for $25,000. Endowing a particular building on campus or providing for faculty development are other options.
Many of our alumni and friends have dis- covered that endowment building is one of the most satisfying means of supporting Maryville College.

Donors Answering Call To Meet Kresge Challenge
Since the Kresge Foundation of Troy, Mich., issued a $500,000 grant in early July, challeng- ing Maryville College to raise the remaining fiinds needed to complete the student center
Jean and Harold Lambert were recognized by Maryville College President Dr. Gerald W. Gibson, left, during the 1999 Founder's Day Banquet. The Lamberts have pledged $1 million to the Bartlett Hall Student Center Projea.
project by Aug. 1, 2000, response has been enthusiastic and meaningful.
The College has received nearly $1,100,000 in gifts and pledges in support of this challenge, and is actively pursuing the remaining $315,000 needed to meet the challenge and fin- ish the project.
"The commitment by the Kresge Foundation is a timely one, and I truly believe it has helped to spark people who have been thinking about ways to help the College," said Anna Graham, Director of the MC2000 Campaign. "To be under the half-million-dollar mark for this project is exciting. So many peo- ple have renewed their commitment and enthu- siasm for this special place - at this special time in the history of the institution."
Jean and Harold Lambert '50 of Marvville are a perfect example ot Graham's sentiment. In response to the Kresge Challenge, they pledged $500,000 toward the effort in October. The gift followed a gift of $500,000 made eadier in the year.
Originally, the Lamberts intended tor their gifts to be anonymous but had a change of heart when requested by the College to share their storj-.
"We thought it might inspire others to make a con- tribution, just as we were inspired," Harold said. "We're willing to do all we can to help make the new student center a reality. "We are so proud of the school and what it means to Maryville. The community would really be lost without Maryville College," he added.
Vince and Cindy Evans, parents of Brandon Evans '01, were inspired to make a gift to Maryville College after a series of events prompted them to attend the Atlanta campaign event at the home of Nancy Gamble Bromley 73.
"Vince and I were driving back to Conyers [Ga.] after a football game (Brandon is a member of the Fighting Scots football team), and we were talking about ■-, how great it would be if we could make a gift to the MC2000 Campaign,
Cindy said. "We put it into the back ot our minds until we received an invitation to the Atlanta event and decided we wanted to hear more."
Just a few days before the Atlanta event, fire destroyed Fayerweather Flail.
"This heightened our awareness of the need to take action and make a gift," Cindy explained. "And on the way to the event, as we were thinking about how to budget tor a gift, we remembered some stock we had not includ- ed in our long-term financial planning. We decided to make the gift with that. It's been a very attractive option tor us."
Giving appreciated stock is a convenient way to make a gift to the College, according to Graham.
"We're seeing more and more donors make
gifts to the Campaign and in support of the
Kresge Challenge through gifts of stock,"

Graham said.
"We're able to give something back - not just the tuition we pay - and not just in support of this building but also in support ot the whole College - facult}', staff, students - who have helped make Mary\'ille a good place tor Brandon," Cindy said.
Christine "Teenie" Havworth, mother of Deborah Hayworth '81 and member of the MC Board of Directors, is an avid promoter of all things Mar)'ville College. And even though she did not attend MC, her enthusiasm for the College never dwindles.
"I always get the biggest kick when I'm back on 'my' campus, " Hav'worth explained. "I real- ly think this excitement I feel has its origins in the fact that I didn't attend a liberal arts college. It's left a big hole in my life, especially when I look at what it's meant to our children - all of whom attended liberal arts colleges.
"The sense of community that prevails at these schools is immense," Haworth added, "and they've taken it into their adult lives as well - as good citizens and parents."

For Mary Swain Wood '29, there was never any question that she would attend a liberal arts college.
"In my family it was understood that first you went to a small, private liberal arts college, and then you could go on to an\'where else you wanted."
The year Wood entered college was a provi- dential one for MC.
"Centre (in Danville, Ky) was the college for my grandfather, my father, my brother and my brother's son. The year I entered college. Centre was merging with the women's college down the road and weren't accepting any other women as freshmen. So the family looked for the nearest Presbyterian school."
The nearest Presbyterian school just hap- pened to be Mar)'ville College.

When the depression hit in 1929, Wood's family was unable to send her back for her sen- ior year, so she got a job teaching elementary school in Kentuck)'. Eventually, she was recruit- ed by the Scott Foresman Publishing Company as a reading consultant for the state of Texas. Her job: to promote a new line of reading mate- rials, starring now familiar characters Dick and Jane.
"Every first grader in the state of Texas thought I was Dick and Jane's mother," she said.
When Wood heard about the MC2000 Campaign, the Fayerweather fire and the Kresge Challenge, she decided to make a gift in addi- tion to her regular gifts to the Annual Fund.
"I'm so happy about MC today," she said. "The growth and improvement thrills me. You know the Presb)^erian Church is known for believing in education, and I believe MC has successfully met that goal.
"I was a student when Dr. Wilson was presi- dent, and I never shook hands with him," Wood added. "I feel like if I were a student today. Dr. Gibson would know me."

Center for Campus Ministry nears completion, fund-raising goals
Workers paid close attention to detail when it came to restoring the Center for Campus Ministry. A metal roof and white "dimples" across the top of the building would have been visible features of the building in 1888.
by Anna Graham, CFRE, MC2000 Campaign Director
As the students returned to campus for the fall semester, they found workers completing the restoration of the Center for Campus Ministry (CCM).
It's easy to see why this project has been par- ticularly meaningful to Andy McCall, project manager and Maryville College's director of physical plant. The restoration of a building President Gerald Gibson has called "an archi- tectural jewel in the center of our campus" has been a labor of love.
When McCall talks about the project, he's careful to stress that this has been a restoration - not a renovation.
He and his team paid close attention to detail when it came to replacing the roof plas- ter and woodwork. "Walls were re-plastered rather than replaced with sheet rock. A large part of the wood used for replacing missing or damaged detailed pieces came from the College Woods.
"About 10 years ago we cut down a few dead oak trees, and we saved the wood," McCall explained. "It was too valuable to throw out, and I'm glad we didn't."
The metal roof is a near replica of the origi-
nal one. The white "dimples" across the top of the root were discovered in an old photograph of the building. When the roofers took the existing roof off McCall explained, they found what they believe is the original metal roof (that had been covered with tar) with some of the bases of the white dimples remaining.
"[Roofing company] Baird and Wilson was able to reproduce the original pattern of the roof and spacing of the dimples, " the project
manager said.
The sole original door remains as the door to the office of support staff member Rachel Moore '67 and has been reproduced lor the entrances to the building.
Dr. Chad Berry, assistant professor of histo- ry and member of the Maryville City Historic Zoning Commission, lound this attention to detail particularly appealing.
"The detail of the small squares ot glass, based on rhis original door, really becomes a motif lor the whole building, " he said.
The stained glass borders on the windows throughout the building continue this theme, and memorialize or honor individual donors. They were designed and crafted by Catherine Carter-Stiles '81.
The Reverend Stephen Nickle, chaplain and director of volunteer services, said he is pleased with the results.
"It's a warm and hospitable space that invites people to come in and seek nourishment," the chaplain said. "If there were a day when all the staff was home in bed with the fiu, the open doors of this place would continue to draw peo- ple into a community. '
According to McCall, the building is equipped with all safet)', ADA, electric and fire requirements.
"It should be a good building for a long time," he said.
Of the $700,000 needed to restore the building, $80,000 remains to complete the fundraising. For more information, please con- tact MC2000 Campaign Director Anna B. Graham at 865/981-8200.
Inside the CCM, walls were re-piaitered. Wood work that was missing or damaged by water leaks was replaced by oak trees salvaged from the College Woods.

MC2000 CAMPAIGN
ensures Gamble legacy lives on
by Lyn French, Director of Gift PLvining
The following article is reprinted from the Fall 1999 edition of MC Futures, the planned giving newsletter for friends and alumni of Maryville
Margaret Gamble Purcell
Among the tamily names that punctuate the chronicles of Mar)'ville College is that of Gamble. There have been Gamble board members, Gamble benefactors and Gamble students galore. There is even a Gamble Hall, named after Joe Gamble who was a stu- dent, board chairman and benefactor.
Far away in Calitornia, Margaret Gamble Purcell grew up an only child, learning the lore of Maryville College, where her grandfather, mother and father were all stu- dents - as well as scores of cousins, nieces and nephews - many of them twice removed. Other strands of Margaret's family were MC alumni as well, for example, her grandfather. Scales Amerine, who later owned the mill and the gen- eral store in Maryville.
Margaret's mother, Eva Amerine Gamble 1899, entered Mar^'ville Preparatory School at the tender age of 12. It even required a special board vote to admit a child so young. When Eva graduated she was - and remains - the youngest student to graduate from the Preparatory School. This was in 1902 - a time when Fayerweather Hall, Harriett Hall, and Willard House were brand new buildings on campus and Samuel Tyndale Wilson had recendy assumed the college presidency.
FOCUS Autumn 1999 18
Margaret's father, Sidney Gamble, left Mar)'ville College that same year. You might assume her parents had met at Maryville College, but no; they met as children in the school play- ground for a game of mumblet)'peg.
"It was always understood, " Margaret said of her parents, "that they would one day marry."
Sadly, however, Eva Gamble was widowed in 1915. She developed a furnirure business to sup- port her young family and, in her volunteer work, eventually built a national reputation as a leader among Chrisrian women. She was a renowned public speaker and the founder and president of a statewide Christian women's asso- ciation in California.
In 1920, at the age of 10, Margaret first traveled by train across country to Maryville, Tenn., for a Gamble tamily reunion.
"A five-generation photograph was taken at the time," she recalled.
Because her mother held it important to maintain family ties, Margaret traveled across country to Maryville every few years. At a reunion attended by more than 100 family mem- bers, she inquired of her Grandmother Gamble, "Are these people really all my relatives?"
Her grandmother responded, "Oh, Honey, that's just a few!" Many of them were Mar}^^^ College alumni.
Margaret did not go to Maryville College but inherited a love of learning. She earned her bach- elor's degree at San Jose State University and a master's of art degree (in music education) at Universit)' of Southern California and became an educator and administrator in California schools. Yet her scholarship was rooted in East Tennessee. She wrote her thesis on the folklore and music of
Cade's Cove.
Margaret and her mother became reconnect- ed with Maryville College in 1968 when they were contacted by then-president Dr. Joseph Copeland and Board Chairman, Joe Gamble '26, a relative. They were inspired by the College's dedication to liberal arts and its Christian values.
Even after her mother's death, Margaret's rela- tionship with the College continued. In 1992, she decided to make a provision in her living trust, leaving the bulk of her estate to Maryville College to establish the Margaret Gamble Purcell Chair of English. Her mother had requested that she leave the biJk of her estate to a Christian organization.
In a letter to then Interim President, Dr. Mark Ebersole, Margaret wrote: "This has taken a great deal of thought and many prayers. A great load has been lifted from my shoulders and I am sure my mother would be pleased with our decision."
But her philanthropy was not over. This January she established a $400,000 charitable gift annuity to benefit the College, the residuary of which will support the chair in English. This generous gift not only provides for the future of the College, but also provides Margaret a sub- stantial income tax deduction and a generous income tor life.
Giving to her parents' alma mater felt so grat- ifying that Margaret decided to make yet anoth- er gift. Inspired by the MC2000 Campaign and concerned for the loss of Fayerweather Hall, she recently donated appreciated stock valued at $50,000 for the new Student Center.
"I am delighted," she said, "to be able to help in this way."
Margaret recendy had dinner with Maryville College President Dr. Gerald Gibson and his wife Rachel and pronounced the College "in good hands."
The Gamble name has been an illustrious part of the Maryville College chronicles in the 1 9th and 20th centuries. Margaret Gamble Purcell's gifts, as well as those from other Gambles, will ensure that the name remains an illustrious part of Maryville College for a long succession of generations in the new millennium.

LETTER FROM THE ALUMNI PRESIDENT
Tim Topham '80, MCAA President
W' ere sharing a lot ot information in these pages of FOCUS. I hope it paints tor you a good picture of things happening on campus. But with a college ot 1,001 students, 100 or so courses, two building projects underway, 10 athletic teams, a calendar full of fine arts events, and many club and organization-sponsored activities, it's difficult to paint a detailed picture - even in 52 pages.
As the Maryville College Alumni Association (MCAA) pres- ident, I'm happy to report that the alumni presence on campus is dynamic, too - just as it is represented on the cover of this autumn's FOCUS.
New members to the Association's Executive Board are list- ed on page 13. A complete listing of the Board is on page 51. We met Sept. 10 and 1 1 to discuss the work of the Association. It was a productive time. As in every meet- ing. Board members receive from the pres- ident an update on the present state of the College, and staff advisots share particular details about their respective departments: admissions, alumni programming, devel- opment, public relations, student develop- ment. And while there's no question about the positive direction in which Marwille is moving, the Executive Board is also apprised ot the areas in which the College needs help - help from its alumni - to keep the momentum going.
If you read this column regularly, you've read some of my suggestions for how alumni can get involved. You've tead about the importance of building a new student center, boosting alumni participation, identifying prospective students for the College, adding new members to the VISA Affinity Program, planning (and attending) outreach events. I still stand beside those "causes, " and I hope other alumni do, as well. I'd like to share additions and updates, as they came trom the September meeting.
Just as Maryville College grows, so does its needs. • The VISA Affinit}' Program. Several years ago Mar\'\'ille College established the VISA Affinity Card. The number of card carriers varied, as businesses joined and left the program. In recent years, carriers numbered about 300, but the Executive Board voted to have 200 new participants before Dec. 31, 2000.
With each putchase made on an affinity card, the Association receives a percentage of the purchase. And, as you've likely read before, the Association purchases gifts for stu- dents (see freshman T-shirt on opposite page) and sponsors alumni-student events with the money earned.
I'm happy to report that First Tennessee Bank has decided to
re-market the VISA Affinity Card, which should make it easier tor alumni to apply Applications should be mailed this winter.
• The Milestone Traditions School Ring program. Alumni trom reunion classes may have received a brochure in the mail this summer about the official ring now being offered to stu- dents who earn a minimum of 59 credit hours.
The MCAA took this program over last yeat, because Board members believed that a school ring could come to represent a tradition at Marwille College. And who better promotes and keeps traditions than alumni?
Through an agreement with ring manufacturer Milestone Traditions, the MCAA receives a small amount ot money for each ring purchased. The MCAA has decided to use that money for a special ring ceremony, during which juniors and seniors will be presented the ring by President Gibson.
Martha Bess Ellis DeWitt '64 chaired a committee of alumni and students to plan the first ting ceremony. It was scheduled tor Dec. 1 in the Proffitt Dining Room.
• The Career Services Task Force. Connecting alumni with students who need job experience has been an important issue of the Executive Board for some time. This summer, a seven- member committee of faculty, staff, students and alumni was formed to discuss students' internship and job placement needs and ways in which alumni can meet those needs. The last few months have been a great learning experience for everyone involved; we hope the next few months will be very productive.
Along those lines, the MCAA co-sponsored the annual Senior Luncheon with the College's Career Services Office. During the luncheon program, Austin "Cole" Piper '68, Ann Little Rigell '69 and Wil Lukens '91 gave students advice for life after Maryville College.
Although juniors and seniors may be too buried in exams, labs and Senior Thesis projects to realize it, there is life - for many alumni, long and fulfilling life - after Maryville College.
Alumni on the cover of this FOCUS illustrate that. D. H. Briggs '19 earned doctoral degrees at the University of North Carolina and returned to teach psychology at MC for almost 30 years. George Callahan '20 went to medical school after MC and became a doctor. He died in 1995 at the ripe old age of 94. Ethel Burchfiel '19 (the woman in the letter sweater) married Finis Cooper '18, and before their deaths in 1984 and 1990, they set up a trust fiand for Maryville College. That trust fund, now maintained by daughter Maggie Cooper, has pro- vided funds for (among many other things) the renovation of the physical education building. The building was renamed the Cooper Athletic Center in 1993. From the trust fund. Miss Cooper has also given money for the kitchen area in the new Bartlett Hall Student Center.
If any of those early century students were living today, I'm sure they would applaud the efforts of the MCAA to ensure that Maryville remains "for students for centuries."

What^s key in taking a picture of the largest freshman class in Maryville Collegers history?
"Location, location, location," according to Knoxville photographer Neil Crosby.
For the fourth consecutive year, Crosby has pho- tographed the freshmen in their Alumni Association T-shirts.
The side entrance of Thaw Hall is perfect for the shot, he said.
"The steps are just the right height, the columns are nice in the picture and the sun is angled out of the way by the size of the build' ing," he said. "The green grass in front really shows off the beauty of the setting." Technically, Crosby uses a medium format camera that produces a negative roughly four times larger than a 35 mm negative. Standing no more than 20 yards from his 300+ subjects and using a standard 90 mm lens, Crosby said he is able to get a "true" picture, a proportionate picture.
He lines students up by height, starting with those over 6 foot. From there, every step is designated in inch increments: one step for those who stand 5- foot-11; another for those who stand 5-foot-IO and so on. The shortest stu- dents are asked to kneel or sit.
"It's the largest group I shoot," Crosby said. "But we can get it done in 30 minutes - largely because of that great location. Those steps are life savers."
Not only does the Class of 2003 total more than 300 students, but the College reported the largest student body ever - it's 1 ,00 1 strong.
