he  stands  in  the  graveyard  silence  of  a  frozen,  barren 
basin,  bereft  of  color  and  wind-whipped  into  harshness 
at  the  foot  of  glacier- covered  mountain  peaks.  Powerful  winds 
sweep  away  overcast  skies  to  unveil  jagged  snowcapped  moun- 

nature  forms  and  land  forms.  The 
Himalayan  trek  locked  me  into  thinking 


tain  tops  which  cut  into  sapphire  blue 
skies.  A  21-day  trek  brought  her  to  this 
destination,  a  trip  which  evoked  emo- 
tions inside  her  from  fear  to  elation. 
Feeling  victorious  from  the  sheer  accom- 
plishment of  getting  to  the  top,  she  stops 
and  absorbs  the  stark  beauty  of  the 
landscape. 

Agnes  Scott  art  professor  Terry 
McGehee  spent  part  of  her  sabbatical 
leave  in  November  1982  trekking  in  the 
Himalaya  mountain  range  to  Mount 
Anapurna.  Her  life-changing  experience 
produced  arru'ork  which  was  first  exhib- 
ited at  the  College  during  January  and 
now  travels  to  Houston,  Tex.,  for  a 
show  in  April. 

Terry's  desire  to  do  the  150-mile  trek 
came  from  her  sense  of  adventure  and 
love  for  the  outdoors.  "I'm  just  now  ad- 
dressing the  importance  of  my  love  of 


about  land  forms  in  ways  I've  never 
dreamed  about.  It's  been  a  year  since  the 
trek,  but  I  may  be  addressing  landscapes 
for  the  next  10,  20  years.  Even  my  nudes 
turn  into  landscapes  because  I  see  the 
body,  the  human  figure,  as  part  of  the 
land." 

Terry  is  not  a  typical  artist,  she  will  ad- 
mit. She  does  not  make  art  to  decorate 
the  walls  of  Atlanta  law  offices  and  bank 
lobbies,  although  much  of  her  work  is 
displayed  in  such  places.  Her  purpose  in 
creating  art  is  to  express  her  feelings  that 
result  from  her  personal  experiences. 

"The  older  I  get,  the  more  important 
art  becomes  to  me  —  not  only  because 
it's  a  form  of  expression  —  but  because 
it's  where  I  do  a  lot  of  my  healing.  It's

College? 


For  most  women,  a  27'year  tenure  as  teacher  and  Dean  of 
Agnes  Scott  College  would  bring  ample  career  satisfaction. 
But  at  54,  Dr.  Julia  T  Gary  yearned  for  change.  This  June 


she  leaves  Agnes  Scott  to  enroll  as  a  student  in 
Emory  University's  Candler  School  of  Theology  on 
her  way  to  becoming  a  Methodist  minister  to  the 
elderly. 

"It's  a  long  way  from  chemistry  teacher  and  dean  to 
minister,  but  I'm  off!  I'm  excited,  I'm  offi"  she  ex- 
claims. Her  decision  to  retire  early  and  begin  a  new 
career  surprised  everyone  but  her  pastor,  the  Rever- 
end Garnett  Wilder,  of  Decatur  First  United  Metho- 
dist Church.  Since  she  joined  Decatur  First  in  1971, 
she  has  worked  in  every  leadership  positic^in  available 


to  a  lay  person,  including  chair  of  the  administrative 
board,  which  is  the  ruling  body  of  the  church. 

"She's  a  marvelous  Christian  person,"  says  Dr. 
Wilder.  "She's  been  a  wise  counselor  to  me  and  a 
source  of  strength  to  this  congregation.  She  brings  to 
her  tasks  a  high  degree  of  intelligence,  Christian  com- 
mitment and  mature  judgment." 

Dean  Gary  would  like  to  work  with  the  elderly  as  a 
staff  person  of  a  large  church  or  for  one  of  the  de- 
nomination's agencies.  She  will  be  58  when  she  grad- 
uates from  theology  school,  but  she  says,  "I'll  ha\e  10

good  years  —  that's  a  relatively  short  career.  But  if  it's 
good  in  quality,  what  difference  does  it  make  —  what 
difference?" 

She  has  few  illusions  about  the  difficulties  she  will 
face.  "One  of  my  students  asked  me  if  my  ego  could 
stand  it  —  no  large  office,  no  secretary.  I've  enjoyed

the  prestige  of  the  deanship  of  Agnes  Scott  thoroughly 
and  completely.  Now,  I'll  be  with  people  the  same  age 
as  my  students,"  she  says.  "1  wonder  if  I  can  still  write 
a  term  paper?" 

There  was  nothing  dramatic  about  her  decision,  the 
dean  explains.  "I  have  been  restless  for  the  past  three 
or  four  years.  I  was  interviewed  for  other  deanships 
and  college  presidencies,  but  none  sounded  good  to 
me." 

Her  answer  came  little  by  little.  "I  asked  myself, 
'Who  in  the  world  is  better  able  to  do  something  dif- 
ferent?' I  have  no  responsibility  to  anyone.  I'm  finan- 
cially able  to  survive  for  three  years.  I  have  a  strong 
sympathy  for  the  elderly,"  she  adds,  smiling.  "My 
knees  are  creaky  —  I'm  getting  there  myself."  Her 
students  tell  her  she'll  be  doing  "peer  counseling." 

"This  is  a  long  way  from  anything  I  ever  thought 
about,"  says  Dean  Gary.  "It  was  not  a  career  that  was 
available  to  us  when  I  came  along.  Today  the  number 
of  women  in  the  ministry  is  growing  by  leaps  and 
bounds.  I  know  I'll  encounter  some  negative  feelings. 
After  all,  I'm  a  woman  and  I'm  olden  But  I  was  the 
only  woman  chemist  in  graduate  school.  I  coped  with 
it  then  and  I  can  do  it  again." 

Dean  Gary  counts  the  Return  to  College  Program 
as  her  most  notable  achievement  at  Agnes  Scott. 
"In  this  program,  the  College  has  made  a  posi- 
tive statement  about  its  commitment  to  women.  This 
is  a  college  for  women;  this  is  what  we  are  about." 
This  quarter  the  program  has  59  women,  she  notes. 
"They  are  a  real  addition  to  the  College." 

She  also  takes  pride  in  her  work  overseeing  the  $1.5 
million  renovation  of  Buttrick  Hall  and  the  $3  million 
renovation  of  Campbell  Science  Hall,  for  which  she 
participated  in  the  selection  of  the  architect  and 
contractor. 

In  recognition  of  her  contributions  to  the  College, 
particularly  to  the  study  of  science,  the  Trust  Com- 
pany Bank  has  named  in  her  honor  the  chemistry  lec- 
ture room,  where  she  spent  much  of  her  teaching 
career  at  the  College.  The  room's  renovation  was 
funded  by  the  Trust  Company  of  Georgia  Founda- 
tion, the  Walter  H.  &l  Marjory  M.  Rich  Memorial 
Fund,  the  Florence  C.  &.  Harry  L.  English  Memcirial 
Fund  and  the  Harriet  McDaniel  Marshall  Trust. 

Dean  Gary's  career  includes  service  under  three 
Agnes  Scott  presidents,  each  of  whom  found  her 
invaluable.  "She  has  a  strong  mind  and  is  very 
frank  and  honest,"  said  Dr.  Wallace  Alston,  who  led 
Agnes  Scott  from  1951-1973.  "If  she  finds  her  point  of 
view  doesn't  prevail,  she'll  go  along  with  the  group. 
She's  a  team  perscin." 


'*Ji 


Dr.  Marvin  Perry  Jr.,  Agnes  Scott  president  from 
1973-1982,  described  Dean  Gary  as  a  "fine  scientist 
and  better  read  than  most  humanists.  She  was  a  gooc 
right  hand  to  me.  It's  typical  of  her  outlook  and 
energy  to  start  a  new  career  She  brought  to  her  post ; 
marvelous  sense  of  humor  and  fun,"  he  remembered. 
"She  can  laugh  at  herself." 

She  has  had  to.  Most  Black  Cat  skits  feature  an  im- 
itation of  her  distinctive  North  Carolina  twang.  She 
once  turned  the  table  on  one  of  her  imitators,  Mary 
Gay  Morgan  '75,  by  bringing  down  the  house  with  a 
takeoff  on  the  student  in  a  Black  Cat  Revue. 

Dean  Gary  credits  her  unfaltering  good  humor  to 
her  gardening.  She  lovingly  tends  some  30  rosebushes 
every  day.  "You  can't  think  bad  thoughts  when  you're 
digging  in  the  dirt,"  she  says. 

•ulia  Gary  was  well-fitted  for  the  deanship 
both  by  birth  and  by  training,"  Dr.  Alston 
believes.  The  daughter  of  a  Henderson,  N.C, 
banker,  Dean  Gary  attended  Randolph-Macon 
Woman's  College.  "She  will  sing  the  alma  mater  in 
Latin  with  no  encouragement  at  all,"  quips  Bertie 
Bond,  a  friend  and  associate  at  Agnes  Scott.  Dn  Gar> 
earned  a  master's  degree  from  Mount  Holyoke  Colleg 
and  went  on  to  receive  her  doctorate  in  chemistry 
from  Emory  University.  Dr.  Alston  promptly  hired 
her  as  a  chemistry  instructor  at  Agnes  Scott. 

"I  thought  I  would  stay  a  year  or  two,"  she  recalls. 
"But  the  College  got  a  hold  on  me.  I  liked  the  school 
and  the  people,  and  the  teaching  was  exciting." 

When  Dr.  C.  Benton  Kline,  then  Dean  of  the  Fac- 
ulty, needed  help,  Julia  Gary  filled  in  for  him  two 
afternoons  a  week.  In  1966,  she  spent  a  sabbatical 
year  at  the  University  of  Illinois  as  visiting  scientist. 
When  she  returned,  she  had  to  choose  between  chem 
istry  and  the  deanship  when  Dr.  Kline  left  in  mid-yeai 
Dn  Alston  tapped  her  as  acting  dean. 

"Some  people  voiced  real  objections,  real  reserva- 
tions about  a  woman  as  dean,  but  Dn  Alston  though 
it  might  be  all  right,"  she  remembers.  She  was  made 
Dean  of  the  Faculty  in  1969.  The  title  was  changed  in 
1979  to  Dean  of  the  College. 

Looking  back,  she  sees  more  flexibility  now  in  the 
academic  programs  and  the  students'  social  life. 
"The  faculty  is  much  younger  and  now  half  men 
and  half  women.  When  1  first  came,  there  were  a  grea 
many  strong,  unmarried  women.  Now  the  number  of 
single  women  is  small."  The  faculty  reflects  the  outsid( 
world,  she  says.  "The  faculty  now  makes  a  li\ing 
wage.  The  students  are  not  \ery  different  —  they,  too, 
reflect  the  changes  taking  place  in  the  world." 

When  she  leaves  her  post  in  June,  she  plans  to 
spend  six  weeks  cleaning  out  the  bookshelves  and  "re- 
orienting my  house  to  a  new  kind  of  life."  Claiming 
she  hasn't  had  a  vacation  in  a  long  time,  she  also 
plans  to  sit  down  and  put  her  feet  up. 

"Dean  Gary  has  served  this  College  well  and  she 
will  be  greatly  missed,"  President  Ruth  Schmidt  told 
the  College  community  upon  announcement  of  Dean 
Gary's  resignation.  "I  will  miss  her  both  personally 
and  professionally.  I  salute  her  for  her  great  spirit,  her 
contributions  to  the  life  of  this  College  and  the  exem- 
plary person  that  she  is.  She  leaves  us  w^ith  a  rich  heri 
tage  of  commitment  to  the  highest  standards  of 
excellence  in  academic  and  extracurricular  life."        ■

T-«HEY  RANGE  IN  AGE  FROM 
their  twenties  to  one  who  is  64. 
They  take  one  course  or  a  full  load. 
They  may  be  married,  divorced,  single, 
widowed.  Some  have  small  babies; 
others,  grown  children.  Many  have  jobs. 
These  are  the  women  who  make  up  the 
Return  to  College  Program  at  Agnes 
Scott. 

Begun  in  1975  with  two  students,  the 
RTC  program  has  grown  to  enroll  59 
women  this  winter  quarter.  The  pro- 
gram, designed  for  women  beyond  the 
usual  college  age  of  18  to  22,  welcomes 
all  women  who  qualify  for  admission,  re- 
gardless of  previous  college  e.xperience. 

Marilynn  Mallory,  Director  of  the 
RTC  Program,  believes  most  of  these 
students  come  to  Agnes  Scott  because  of 
its  academic  excellence,  supportive  at- 
mosphere and  size.  Because  returning  to 
college  can  be  frightening,  RTC  students 
find  the  College's  small  si:e  and  helpful 
atmosphere  a  more  gentle  transition 
back  to  school  than  returning  to  a 
university. 

Ms.  Mallory  says  that  RTC  students 
"compare  very  well,  after  the  first  quar- 
ter hurdle,  with  traditional  students,  be- 
cause of  the  RTC  students'  maturity  and 
determination  to  succeed." 

Most  RTCs  begin  slowly  by  taking 
one  or  two  courses  the  first  quarter.  If 
the  student  and  Agnes  Scott  suit  each 
other,  as  they  usually  do,  Ms.  Mallory 
says  the  student  is  "caught  in  a  wonder- 
ful bit  of  magic,"  and  after  two  quarters 
is  usually  enrolled  for  a  degree.

GUISE  BAILEY,  AN  "A"  STU- 
dent,  will  graduate  in  June  with  a 
major  in  English.  The  mother  of 
four  sons,  ages  23,  21,  19  and  12,  she 
came  to  Agnes  Scott  after  two  successful 
years  at  DeKalb  Community  College, 
where  she  edited  the  literary  magazine. 
She  enrolled  at  Agnes  Scott  in  the 
spring  of  1981  because  the  English  de- 
partment was  recommended  by  several 
faculty  members  at  DeKalb.  Ms.  Bailey 
had  visited  the  campus  in  the  fall  of  '80 
on  an  RTC  visitation  day.  While  here, 
she  attended  Professor  Mary  Butler's 
class  on  Dryden,  Swift  and  Pope.  Ms. 
Bailey  says,  "I  was  impressed  with  the 
discussion  in  class,  the  teacher,  the  stu- 


dents and  their  attitude  in  the  class- 
room, and  the  whole  environment  of 
the  school." 

Because  her  work  here  has  gone  so 
well,  Louise  Bailey  is  working  on  a  two- 
quarter,  10-hour  independent  study  of 
William  Faulkner  with  Professor  Linda 
Woods.  She  hopes  to  attend  graduate 
school  in  English  or  education  and  to 
teach  secondary  or  junior  college  stu- 
dents, or  to  become  a  media  specialist.  "I 
would  love  to  earn  a  Ph.D.,  but  it's  one 
step  at  a  time  right  now^" 

Louise  Bailey,  like  other  RTC  stu- 


-Bonnie  BrouTi- 


dents,  describes  the  RTC  Program  as 
marvelous.  "The  support  system  among 
RTCs  and  from  the  College  is  wonder- 
ful, especially  for  those  feeling  apprehen- 
sive. The  only  thing  I  regret  is  that  I 
didn't  come  here  sooner." 

BONNIE  BROWN,  IN  HER  20s 
.and  a  junior,  came  to  Agnes  Scott 
in  1980  after  several  years  of  part- 
time  study  at  Georgia  State  University. 
A  friend  at  work  told  Ms.  Brown  about 
the  RTC  Program. 

"I  am  challenged  academically  by  the 
intelligent,  creative  women  here,"  she 
says.  Although  she  is  closer  in  age  to  the 
traditional  students  than  to  most  of  the 
other  RTCs,  she  finds  that  her  experi- 
ence makes  her  feel  closer  to  the  RTC 
students.  But,  she  adds,  "there  is  that 
point  where  the  challenge  of  the  school 


10    SPRING  1984 


Studentlife 


pushes  us  all  together,"  whether  tradi- 
tional or  RTC. 

An  art  major  and  a  member  of  the 
Arts  Council,  Ms.  Brown  is  focusing  on 
printmaking  and  praises  both  art  profes- 
sor Leland  Staven's  flexible,  supportive 
teaching  and  the  print  lab  and 
equipment. 

"This  is  the  first  time  since  the  eighth 
or  ninth  grade  that  I've  put  school  first," 
she  says.  She  likes  her  involvement  with 
her  school  work  and  her  college  friends 
and  calls  this  a  special  time  because  of 
her  different  perspective  about  being  in 


cational  consultant  to  area  child  devel- 
opment centers  in  Rochester's  Head 
Start  Program. 

One  of  two  black  RTCs  here  fall 
quarter,  Karen  Grantham  sees  black 
RTC  students  as  "excellent  role  models 
for  traditional  minority  students,  be- 
cause they  see  the  importance  of  an  edu- 
cation to  these  older  women."  She  also 
believes  that  her  position  as  a  black 
RTC  senior  resident  benefits  traditional 
white  students  who  "might  feel  freer  to 
discuss  black  culture  with  an  older  stu- 
dent than  with  one  their  own  age." 


have  to  retrain  as  a  missile  repair  person, 
she  and  her  husband  left  the  Army. 
They  enrolled  in  college  together,  first  at 
Florida  Junior  College  in  Jacksonville, 
Ra.,  and  then  at  Clayton  Junior  College 
just  south  of  Atlanta,  where  Ms. 
McCracken  was  elected  president  of  stu- 
dent government. 

She  enrolled  here  last  fall  for  her  first 
course,  Spanish  01.  She  says  she  wanted 
a  place  that  "feels  like  college,  and  this  is 
it!"  She  describes  her  professor,  Luis 
Pena,  as  excellent.  "He's  convinced  me 
to  do  Latin  American  studies.  I  plan  to

school  and  the  challenge  she  finds  here. 

K-'AREN  GRANTHAM  IS  AN 
RTC  "in  the  mainstream";  she  is 
k.the  senior  resident  of  Walters 
Dormitory.  In  her  third  year  as  an  RTC 
and  a  senior  resident,  she  learned  about 
the  RTC  Program  while  working  at 
Spelman  College  in  Atlanta.  In  spring 
1981,  she  applied  for  the  senior  resident 
position  and  was  hired  by  Dean  of 
Students  Martha  M.  Kirkland.  Ms. 
Grantham  entered  the  RTC  Program  by 
taking  her  first  course  that  fall. 

She  will  graduate  in  June  1985  with  a 
degree  in  psychology  and  a  teaching  cer- 
tificate in  education.  She  has  taught  be- 
fore as  head  teacher  of  a  private  day  care 
center  in  Rochester,  N.Y,  and  as  an  edu- 


Being  an  RTC  student  has  enhanced 
her  work  as  a  senior  resident,  she  says. 
"It's  another  foot  in  the  door  with  tradi- 
tional students.  They  see  that  I  have  to 
study,  too,  and  I  have  insight  into  their 
pressures  and  am  more  understanding  of 
problems  when  they  arise." 

MARY  McCRACKEN  DROPPED 
out  of  school  at  16  to  marry.  She 
opened  her  own  employment 
agency  at  19  in  Washington,  D.C.,  later 
divorced  and  at  25  she  earned  her  Grad- 
uate Equivalent  Diploma  and  joined  the 
Army  for  three  years.  Her  work  as  a 
journalist/broadcaster  gave  her  a  keen 
interest  in  political  science,  and  her 
work  as  a  drill  sergeant  introduced  her 
to  a  fellow  sergeant  whom  she  soon 
married. 
When  the  Army  told  her  she  would

earn  my  Ph.D.  if  it  kills  me." 

The  mother  of  two  children,  3  and  9, 
Ms.  McCracken  works  part-time  as  a 
bookkeeper  in  Clayton  County.  Her 
husband,  a  registered  nurse,  cares  for  the 
3-year-old  in  the  morning. 

"I'm  going  back  to  school  for  me,  not 
for  my  parents,  money  or  anything 
else,"  Ms.  McCracken  says.  "I  want  to 
achieve  my  potential  intellectually  —  or 
as  close  as  I  can  come  —  and  become  an 
expert  in  one  area,  just  for  me."

jraduate,  recounts  the  activities 
of  several  other  RTC  graduates.  Joan

WOODRUFF  GRANT 
TO  AID  RTCs 

A  $1  million  bequest  from 
the  Irene  K.  Woodnifj 
estate  to  Agnes  Scott  Col- 
lege.will  increase  the  funds 
designated  for  financial  aid 
for  Return  to  College

Andrea  Kivi  and  Ale.xa  Forte,  seniors  at 
Tucker  High  School,  are  planning  to 
apply  to  Agnes  Scott  for  admission  next 
fall.  They  believe  they  would  not  be  do- 
ing so  had  they  not  received  joint  enroll- 
ment scholarships  from  the  College  this 
year 

Although  Agnes  Scott  started  the 
joint  enrollment  program  years  ago,  this 
is  the  first  year  scholarships  were  offered 
for  the  program  which  allows  qualified 
high  school  students  to  take  courses  at 
the  College.  These  new,  merit-based 
scholarships  cover  the  cost  of  tuition  for 
one  course,  whether  it  be  one-quarter  or 
yearlong. 

Dr.  Linda  L.  Woods  '62,  associate  pro- 
fessor of  English,  proposed  the  scholar- 
ships in  response  to  President  Ruth 
Schmidt's  Channels  for  Creativity  Con- 
test. In  her  proposal.  Dr.  Woods  said, 
"The  exposure  and  goodwill  that  such  a 
program  would  provide  would  be  invalu- 
able. We  would,  of  course,  be  benefitted 
by  taking  into  our  classes  strong  students 
who  would  improve  the  quality  of  the  in- 
troductory level  courses.  .  .  .   We  have 
much  to  gain  —  and  to  give." 

Carter  Hoyt,  assistant  director  of  ad- 
missions, oversees  the  program.  She  says 
it  "recognizes  the  readiness  of  selected 
high  school  seniors  to  begin  college  work 
before  graduation  from  high  school." 

To  be  considered,  a  student  must  sub- 
mit a  high  school  transcript,  a  record  of 
SAT  or  ACT  scores  and  a  letter  from  her 
high  school  counselor  giving  school 
approval  for  specific  courses,  as  well  as 
the  school's  recommendation  of  the  stu- 
dent. Students  are  apprcived  for  admis- 
sion to  the  program  by  the  director  of 
admissions  and  for  entrance  into  specific 
courses  by  the  dean  of  the  college.  Tlie 
joint  enrollment  students  are  designated 
as  unclassified  students,  and  the  grades 
they  earn  at  Agnes  Scott  go  toward  their 


'88:  A  JUMP  AHEAD 


graduation  requirements  at  their  high 
schools  and  toward  college  credit  if  the 
grades  are  C  or  better. 

Andrea  Ki\'i  has  completed  her  one- 
quarter  course,  General  Psychology,',  and 
says  she  "enjoyed  the  course,  the  profes- 
sor (Dr.  Ayse  I.  Garden  '66),  and  met  a 
lot  ot  nice  people  in  class." 

Alexa  Forte,  whose  first  language  at 
home  is  French,  is  taking  a  yearlong 
freshman  English  course.  "There  is  a  lot 
more  work  and  also  more  reward  in  this 
course  compared  to  my  high  school 
courses,"  she  says.  "I  like  the  whole  at- 
mosphere here."  Alexa  has  arranged  her 
schedule  to  spend  time  on  campus  and 
has  enjoyed  getting  to  know  Agnes 
Scott  students.  Her  course  work  and  her 
association  with  the  students  have 
changed  her  mind  favorably  toward 
single-sex  institutions. 

Four  other  high  school  seniors  re- 
ceived joint  enrollment  scholarships. 
They  are  Meg  Bryant  from  Chamblee 
High  School,  who  took  Voice  and  Dic- 
tion; Mary  Davis  from  Decatur  High 
School,  who  is  taking  German  101; 
Shea  Henson  from  Druid  Hills  High 
School,  who  is  taking  German  101;  and 
Nancy  Williams  from  Lakeside  High 
School,  who  is  taking  English  101. 

The  six  students  who  received  the 
scholarships  for  fall  quarter  reinforce  the 
program's  intent.  While  not  all  sLx  plan 
to  attend  Agnes  Scott  next  fall,  four  cif 
the  six  are  applying  to  Agnes  Scott  and 
three  of  them  would  not  have  applied 
without  the  scholarship. 

All  six  of  the  students  are  enthusiastic 
about  the  scholarship  program  and  ex- 
press great  satisfaction  with  their  ex- 
periences at  the  College.  As  Director  of 
Admissions  Judith  M.  Tindel  '73  says, 
"The  Joint  Enrollment  Scholars  are  a 
strong  group  ot  students.  .  .  .  They  are 
taking  a  very  positive  message  about  the 
College  back  to  their  high  schools."         ■

AGNES  SCOTT  ALUMNAE  MAGAZINE    13 


,  ^ore  than  300  people  gathered  at  Agnes  Scott  College  Oa.  1.1983, 
to  pay  tribute  to  a  very  special  man.  John  Flint,  longtime  employee 
of  Agnes  Scott,  was  100  years  old.  Friends,  family,  alumnae,  faculty 


and  staff  members  packed  Rebekah  Re- 
ception Room.  A  three-layer  chocolate 
birthday  cake  surrounded  by  a  variety  of 
hors  d'oeuvres  covered  the  banquet 
tables.  Former  Agnes  Scott  presidents 
Marvin  B.  Perry  Jr.  and  Wallace  M. 
Alston  joined  current  president  Ruth 
Schmidt  to  give  special  greetings  to  Mr 
Flint  as  the  College  presented  him  with 
a  captain's  chair  inscribed  with  the  Col- 
lege seal. 

He  also  received  proclamations  from 
President  Ronald  Reagan  and  state  and 
local  officials.  His  simple  statement  of 
gratitude  drew  a  round  of  applause. 

Mr.  Hint  came  to  Agnes  Scott  in  1910 
as  a  janitor  and  worked  his  way  to  head 
waiter  in  the  dining  hall  and  head  of 
cafeteria  personnel.  He  says  he  often 
served  350  people  a  full-course  dinner  in 
an  hour  He  was  best  known  as  the  bell 
ringer,  calling  students  to  the  table  and 
wearing  out  several  bells  in  the  process. 

But  he  was  also  a  gifted  artisan.  The 
intricate  moldings  in  Rebekah  Scott  Hall 
reflect  his  design,  and  he  dug  founda- 
tions for  and  painted  several  campus 
buildings.  A  part  of  campus  life,  he 
would  often  go  into  the  woods  to  gather 

logs  for  the  students'  fall  bonfires  or 
help  students  decorate  the  halls  for 
parties  and  holidays. 
John  Hint  worked  under  Agnes 
Scott's  first  four  presidents  —  all  of  them 
fine  men,  he  says,  although  the  College's 
first  president,  Dr.  Frank  Gaines,  was  "a 
little  too  strict  for  my  taste."  Dr.  Gaines 
built  a  fence  around  the  campus,  and 
"he  wouldn't  let  dogs  or  boys  pass 
through." 

The  modest  son  of  a  Covington,  Ga., 
farmer  and  preacher,  Mr  Flint  likes  to 
lift  his  finger  and  say,  "I  haven't  got  that 
much  against  anyone  in  the  world."  He 
believes  in  living  by  the  Bible  and  says 
he's  satisfied  with  his  long  life. 

He  enjoys  recalling  the  day  President 


Alston  called  him  into  his  office  and 
said,  ""fcu're  a  good  man,  Mr.  Flint.  If 
I  had  a  front  yard  and  a  back  yard  full 
of  John  Flints,  I  wouldn't  have  a  prob- 
lem in  the  world." 

Mr.  Flint  has  found  few  problems  with 
Agnes  Scott  folk,  either.  "Good  people, 
kind  people,  Christian-hearted  people," 
he  calls  them,  and  though  he  is  a  devout 
churchman,  he  has  always  felt  his  calling 
was  his  work  at  the  College. 

During  his  60  years  at  Agnes  Scott, 
Mr  Flint  claims  he  never  took  a  vaca- 
tion day  and  was  rarely  sick.  Besides  his 
work  at  the  College,  he  did  odd  jobs 
whenever  he  could.  Many  nights,  he 
says,  he  painted  until  3  a.m.,  only  to 
sleep  a  few  hours  before  going  to  work 
at  the  College  at  6:30  a.m. 

Besides  his  affection  for  Agnes  Scott  is 
his  deep  love  for  his  family.  He  first  spot- 
ted his  wife,  Louise,  when  she  was  an 
1 1-year-old  schoolgirl  crossing  the  cam- 
pus to  meet  her  mother,  who  worked  in 
the  custodial  department.  Mr.  Hint  re- 
members it  as  love  at  first  sight,  and  he 
made  up  his  mind  to  stay  in  Decatur 
until  she  was  old  enough  to  "receive 
company."  Three  years  later,  he  asked 
her  mother  for  permission  to  call  on 
Louise,  and  in  another  three  years,  they 
married. 

"We  had  79  years  together,"  he  says. 
"We  each  gave  100  percent  to  the  mar- 
riage. That's  pure  love;  that's  proven 
love.  If  people  would  marry  for  love,  it 
would  be  a  blessed  thing." 

The  Hints  reared  their  1 1  ^^ 

children  with  the  Bible  as  their  V     ^fe. 
guide,  fielding  problems  during 
monthly  meetings  when  the  family 
prayed  together.  "No  one  ever  left

angry,"  Mr.  Flint  recalls.  Today's  young- 
sters, on  the  other  hand,  cause  him 
worry,  and  he  regrets  the  lack  of  prayer 
and  Bible  teaching  in  public  schools.  "If 
we  had  those  things,  we  would  have 
much  better  conditions  today.  Thou- 
sands of  families  don't  have  time  to  pray 
with  their  children,"  he  says.  "The  best 
thing  is  to  have  your  children  know 
what  God  means." 

Other  things  about  modern  life  bother 
John  Flint,  too.  The  divorce  rate  shocks 
him,  and  he  believes  most  people  marry 
to  get  away  from  home  without  taking 
time  to  get  acquainted  first.  "Where 
there  is  no  love,  there  is  no  getting 
along,"  he  cautions. 

But  in  spite  of  it  all,  he  prefers  today 
to  the  past.  Life  is  easier  today,  he  said, 
explaining  that  his  life  on  the  farm  re- 
quired sunup  to  sundown  work  in  fields 
of  cotton,  peanuts,  soybeans  and  other 
crops.  The  quality  of  life  for  most  blacks 

"If  people  would  marry 

for  love,  it  would  be  a 

blessed  thinp,." 

is  better  now  because  of  the  civil  rights 
movement,  he  added.  Fifty  years  ago,  he 
still  had  to  run  from  white  children  as 
they  hurled  rocks  at  him,  a  50-year-old 
man.  He  taught  his  children  to  survive 
prejudice  by  being  nice  to  everyone, 
avoiding  trouble  and  refusing  to  fight 
back.  And  although  he  credits  Martin 
Luther  King  Jr.  and  John  E  Kennedy 
with  making  great  strides  toward  free- 
dom for  blacks,  he  maintains,  "Christ 
one  day  will  set  the  world  free  when  he 
returns." 

John  Flint  has  also  seen  progress  in 
technology.  Although  12-year-old  John 
was  scared  the  first  time  he  rode  in  a  car, 
his  first  plane  ride  was  just  dandy.  "Old 
people  used  to  tell  children  about  the 
chariots  in  the  sky  —  which  is  in  the 
Bible  —  and  a  lot  of  people  thought 
that's  what  the  planes  were,"  he  says. 

Although  Mr.  Flint  accepted  planes 
for  what  they  were,  he  still  cannot  be- 
lieve man  has  walked  on  the  moon. 
"Science  is  a  wonderful  thing,  but  man 
ain't  that  smart." 

Mr.  Flint  still  lives  in  the  family  home- 
place  in  Decatur  with  his  daughter,  Mis- 
souri Brown,  his  son  Frank,  and  his 
grandson,  Edgar  Allen  Flint.  Most  days 
he  reads  the  Bible  —  often  the  book  of 
Proverbs  —  scans  the  Atlanta  Constitu- 
tion, walks  his  dog  King  and  visits 
with  friends.  At  100,  he  says  his 
greatest  challenge  is  to  be 
always  "kind  and  loving 
to  everybody."  ■

leaps  and  pirouettes  to  study 
a  new  craze  re-entering  today's 
culture  —  folk  dancing. 

Both  an  Agnes  Scott  dance 
professor  and  a  dance  histori- 
an, she  spient  two  years  travel- 
ing throughout  Georgia  and 
the  Southeast  to  research  the 
revival  of  folk  festivals.  Her 
work  earned  her  a  nomina- 
tion for  the  1983-84  Georgia 
Governor's  Awards  in  the 
arts  for  dance. 

Professor  Darling  believes

forms,  and  dance  is  the 
mother  of  art." 

"America  is  changing  so 
fast,"  she  says,  "from  an  in- 
dustrial to  an  informational 
society."  The  process  began  in 
1956,  she  exp  ains,  when  for 
the  first  time  white-collar 


a  new  era  in  global  commui.. 
cations  when  the  Soviets 
launched  Sputnik  I,  she  ex- 
plains. Today,  more  than  60 
percent  of  the  U.S.  workforce 
deals  with  information  for  a  i 
living  —  as  teachers,  com- 
puter programmers,  clerks. 
The  computer  craze  has  pro- 
pelled this  revival  of  the  past 
and,  according  to  Ms.  Darl- 
ing, the  revival  is  getting 
stronger. 

Professor  Darling  came  to 
Agnes  Scott  with  a  master's 
degree  in  music  from  Florida 


16   SPIUNG  1984 


State  University.  She  had 
tudied  under  such  well 
:nown  artists  as  Martha 
jraham,  Alwin  Nikolais, 
Vlvin  Ailey  and  Marcel 
4arceau. 
Her  research  inspired  her  to 
reate  a  campus  clogging 
roup  called  Dixie  Darlings, 

"Folk  dances  are 

'people  dances'  and 

tel  society  about 


/ho  first  performed  for  Presi- 
ent  Ruth  Schmidt's  inaugu- 
ation  last  spring.  Since  then, 
bey  have  danced  at  the 
ellow  Daisy  Festival  at  Stone 


Mountain,  the  opening  of  the 
High  Museum  of  Art  and  at 
the  Great  Scott  Festival  at 
Agnes  Scott. 

During  her  travels,  Ms. 
Darling  interviewed  three 
rural  residents  who  were  more 
than  70  years  old  and  had 
lived  in  the  same  county  for 
at  least  30  years.  She  asked 
them  how  society  had 
changed  from  when  they  were 
young. 

"None  of  them  knew  each 
other,"  she  says.  "\fet  all  three 
gave  basically  the  same  re- 
sponses. They  said  that 
times  were  harder 
then;  less  to  eat,  ■' 


less  to  wear,  homes  were  not 
as  nice.  But  all  preferred  those 
times  to  today  They  felt  that 
there  is  a  sense  of  'hostility 
and  isolation'  in  society  today. 

"People  are  starved  for  gre- 
gariousness,  non-isolation. 
That's  why  folk  festivals  are 
such  a  hit,"  Ms.  Darling  ob- 
serves. "If  we  were  giving 
away  gold,  we  couldn't  pack 
any  more  people  in  some  of 
the  festivals." 

She  found  as  many  as  five 
generations  participating  in 
folk  dances  performed  at  the 
festivals.  This  provided  a 
chance  for  all  age  groups. 


races  and  genders  to  mingle, 
she  thinks.  "Dance  is  one  of 
the  few  total  mixers  we  have 
left  in  society" 
Modern  dance  evolved  into 

"Dance  is  one  of  the 
few  total  mixers  we 
have  left  in  society." 

more  isolation  than  previous 
dances,  she  says.  For  example, 
many  amateur  dances  are  per- 
formed without  touching  a 
partner,  and  professional 
dances  are  performed  on  stage 
apart  fi-om  the  audience. 

"The  audience  does  not 
want  'formal  isolation'  with 
the  dancers  on  the  stage  and

the  audience  off."  She  noted  a 
closeness  between  audience 
and  performer  in  folk  dancing 
—  in  most  performances,  the 
audience  practically  moved 
on  stage  to  see  the 
performers. 

"Folk  dances  are  'people 
dances'  and  tell  society  about 
itself,"  Ms.  Darling  says.  She 
found  both  secular  and  reli- 
gious folk  dances.  Southern 
black  and  Southern  white 
dances.  Southern  white 
dances,  derived  from  Euro- 
pean forms,  included  square 


dancing  and  clogging.  South- 
ern black  dances  began  in 
Africa  but  were  influenced  by 
slavery.  They  included  the 
Buck  Dance,  the  Juba,  the 
Ham  Bone,  the  Holy  Dance 
or  the  Dance  of  the  Holy 
Spirit  and  Saturday  Night 
Jive. 

Ms.  Darling  learned  that 
most  black  dances  came  from 
slave  days  when  dances  were 
in  coded  form.  Out  of  slavery 
came  numerous  slave  games, 
songs  and  dances,  the  only 
art  forms  available  to  the 


black  slaves,  she  says.  Because 
these  art  forms  directly  ex- 
pressed ongoing  life  processes, 
they  were  continually  evolv- 
ing and  changing.  Blacks 
soon  had  a  secret  language 
which  the  white  man  could 
not  easily  understand.  Using 
this  language  barrier  to  their 
advantage,  blacks  blended 
their  own  set  of  meanings  and 
dialogue  into  the  dances  and 
games  to  act  out  their  anger 
and  frustration  toward  the 
white  slaveholders,  without 
fear  of  reprisal. 


"For  example,  in  the  Buck 
Dance,  the  'bucks'  were  black 
slaves,"  Ms.  Darling  says.  The 
white  dance  form  of  the  soft 
shoe  evolved  from  this  dance. 

TTie  Ham  Bone  is  a  coded 
dance  form  of  hand  pats  and 
foot  movements  with  music 
and  lyrics.  According  to  Ms. 
Darling,  during  slave  days  the 
white  masters  would  take  the 
choicest  part  of  a  butchered 
pig.  The  slaves  got  the  rest, 
which  they  divided  equally 
among  themselves.  The  least 
desirable  part  was  the  back- 


LAST  YEAR  WHEN  THE  PULITZER 
Prizes  were  awarded,  the  Agnes  Scott 
^community  cheered  for  one  of  their 
own.  Former  student  and  now  play- 
wright Marsha  Norman  earned  the  1983 
Pulitzer  Prize  for  Drama  with  her  power- 
ful treatment  of  suicide  in  "  'night, 
Mother." 

"/  keep  thinking  what  it  is  that  might  be 
worth  staying  for,"  wonders  Jessie,  the 
middle-aged,  overweight  daughter  in 
'"night,  Mother."  "Maybe  if  there  was 
something  I  really  like,  like  rice  piuiding  or 
combread." 

Such  intimate,  yet  ordinary  conversa- 
tion carries  the  90-minute  dialogue  be- 
tween a  daughter  bent  on  suicide  and 
her  loving,  slightly  dotty  mother  who 
tries  to  dissuade  hen  The  epileptic  daugh- 
ter has  lost  her  husband,  her  son  has 
gone  bad  and  she  cannot  keep  a  job,  but 
she  rejects  self-pity.  She  has  simply  lost  all 
hope,  but  she  maintains  her  dignity  by 
keeping  her  right  to  control  her  life,  even 
to  the  point  of  suicide.  "  'night.  Mother" 
is  playing  to  rave  reviews  on  Broadway, 
and  the  Louisville,  Ky.,  native's  work  is 
expected  to  win  a  sweepstakes  of  theater 
awards  before  the  year  is  out. 

According  to  Ms.  Norman,  35,  part  of 
the  credit  belongs  to  Agnes  Scott  philos- 
ophy professor  Merle  Walker.  "You  look 
two  seconds  at  my  work,  and  you  see  her 
influence.  That's  just  a  critical  part  of 
me." 

She  speaks  of  Dr.  Walker's  passion  for 
her  field.  "Agnes  Scott  allowed  me  to  be 
around  that  kind  of  people."  She  says 
the  best  course  she  took  was  Dr.  Walker's 
course  on  Plato.

one,  so  it  would  be  passed 
round  among  the  slaves 
sveral  times.  From  this  epi- 
ade,  slaves  wrote  the  lyrics, 
Ham  bone.  Ham  bone, 
/here  you  been?  Round  the 
/orld  and  back  again." 

"Juba  is  another  coded  song 
nd  dance  routine  which 
oes,  'Juba  this  and  juba  that 
nd  juba  (food)  killed  a  yellow 
at  (master)."  This  dance 
volved  into  the  Charleston 
1  later  years,  Ms.  Darling 
xplained. 

"The  white  folk  dance,  clog- 


ging, with  its  European  heri- 
tage, is  performed  at  festivals, 
jamborees  and  country 
night  spots,"  she  says.  A  pre- 
decessor of  tap  dance,  clog- 
ging became  dormant  in  the 
1940s  until  the  folk  dance  re- 
vival. Today  it  rides  a  wave  of 
popularity.  There  are  numer- 
ous new  professional  clogging 
teams  which  perform 
throughout  the  country,  she 
says. 

"Like  clogging,  square 
dance  is  currently  one  of  the 
most  popular  forms  of  folk 


dance.  Around  1940,  square 
and  folk  dances  were  danced 
frequently  at  special  barn 
dances,  parties  and  'get- 
togethers.' 

"Festivals  and  jamborees 
sprang  up.  Square  dance  be- 
came so  popular  that  it  was 
incorporated  into  the  educa- 
tional system  throughout  the 
United  States.  By  1966, 
square  dance  had  established 
itself  as  part  of  the  core  cur- 
ricula in  physical  education 
and  recreation  programs  at 
leading  colleges  and  univer- 


sities," Ms.  Darling  observed. 
"Although  square  dance  never 
entered  a  dormant  period  as 
clogging  did,  it  continues  to 
increase  in  popularity  each 
year  with  no  hint  of  decline." 
Professor  Darling,  who  will 
continue  researching  folk 
dance,  predicts,  "The  folk 
craze  will  continue  until  the 
technical/robotics  change 
slows  down  or  until  we  feel 
comfortable  with  that  change. 
As  high  technology  advances, 
the  folk  craze  will  continue  to 
develop  also."  ■ 


"  'The  Allegory  of  the  Cave'  was  criti- 
i\  to  my  thinking.  Every  time  (I  write  a 
lay)  I  make  a  journey,  and  I  watch  the 
ladows  on  the  cave.  The  journey  back

igly  difficult."

The  night  C)t.  Martin  Luther  King  Jr. 
ied  stands  out  for  her.  "The  talk  was, 
Vould  this  be  dangerous  to  us?  Would 
lere  be  race  riots  in  Decatur?'  I  was  very 
isturbed  by  that.  It  was  not  what  we 
lould  be  hearing."

le  identify  a  path  to  follow,  to  make  an 
istinctive  guess  as  to  what  I  should  de- 
ote  my  life.  It  provided  a  peaceful  envi- 
Dnment  and  time  to  do  some  critical 
"linking  about  how  to  make  the  world 

home." 

In  1968,  after  three  years  at  the  Col- 
:ge,  she  went  to  work  with  disturbed 
hildren  at  Kentucky's  Central  State 
lospital.  "Those  kids  were  just  the  be- 
inning.  The  whole  history  of  my  life  is 


wanting  to  be  of  service,"  she  says. 
"How  could  I  help?  I  found  I  couldn't 
help  in  any  way.  Those  kids  were  as 
much  a  part  of  the  bureaucracy  as  the 
bureaucrats  they  served.  I  lasted  two 
years  and  left  absolutely  brokenhearted." 

From  Central  State  she  went  to  teach 
gifted  children  at  the  Brown  School, 
then  settled  down  to  full-time  writing, 
doing  articles  for  Louisville  Today  and 
book  reviews  for  The  Louisville  Times,. 
Also,  she  created  and  wrote  "The  Jelly 
Bean  Journal,"  a  children's  supplement 
to  the  Saturday  evening  Louisville 
Courier-Journal. 

"I  was  perceived  as  charming,  funny 
and  smart,  but  really  of  little  signifi- 
cance." She  told  an  interviewer  from  the 
Saturday  Review,  "I  had  nobody  to  talk 
to.  I  was  an  alien  creature  in  my  im- 
mediate world." 

Feeling  isolated  and  alone  and  having 
ended  her  marriage  to  teacher  Michael 
Norman,  she  made  the  break  and  did 
what  she  had  always  dreamed  of  — 
write  for  the  theater.  She  submitted  a 
play  to  Jon  Jory  of  the  Louisville  Actors 
Theatre.  While  it  didn't  suit  his  needs,  it 
convinced  him  she  could  write.  He  urg- 
ed her  to  try  her  hand  with  a  play  about 
some  serious  social  issue,  perhaps  busing. 
She  countered  with  the  idea  of  "Getting 
Out,"  based  on  the  life  of  a  young  girl 
she  had  known  at  Central  State. 

But  "Getting  Out"  has  personal  mean- 
ing, too.  Ms.  Norman  says  she  has  a 
"tremendous  fear  of  being  trapped  —  to 
be  trapped  in  a  job,  in  a  marriage,  in  a 
group."  Her  fear  took  form  in  "Getting 
Out,"  in  which  an  angry  young  woman.

Actors  Theatre,  the  play  went  on  to

months.

past  five  years.  She  believes  the  ascen- 
dency of  women  in  the  theater  "reflects 
a  general  awareness  of  women  to  be  cen- 
ter stage  in  their  own  lives.  It  reflects  a 
change  in  the  attitude  toward  women  in 
general.  When  a  change  in  the  culture 
occurs,  it  is  reflected  in  the  theater.  My 
work  is  an  affirmation  of  my  right  to 
stand  center  stage." 

She  says  she  has  encountered  no  prej- 
udice in  her  theater  experience.  "But 
there  is  one  prejudice  that  could  have 
been  devastating  —  the  tendency  of  the 
male-dominated  theater  to  put  women 
characters  in  the  background,"  Ms.  Nor- 
man explains.  "  '  'night.  Mother'  is  one 
of  the  few  plays  in  which  the  mother  is 
at  center  stage.  The  mother-daughter  re- 
lationship affects  everyone.  It's  an  im- 
portant relationship  and  needs  to  be 
investigated. 

"America  is  changing.  Success  is  no 
longer  simple.  Personal  relationships  are

Ms.  Norman  observes.  "Art  moves  with 
society." 

0{  the  content  of  "  'night,  Mother," 
Ms.  Norman  says:  "People  receive  a 
problem  that  requires  resolutions.  They 
have  to  work  to  understand  it.  We've  all 
known  people  who  killed  themselves. 
We're  left  confounded  and  grief-stricken. 
'  'night,  Mother'  is  an  attempt  to  under- 
stand what  they're  doing  and  to  fight  it 
out  with  them,  to  fight  both  sides  of  the 
issue." 

Reviewers  have  given  the  play  warm 
response.  "Miss  Norman's  play  is  simple 
only  in  the  way  that  an  Edward  Hopper 
painting  is  simple,"  wrote  Frank  Rich  in 
The  hlew  York  Times.  "As  she  perfectly 
captures  the  intimate  details  of  two  indi- 
vidual, ordinary  women,  the  playwright 
locates  the  emptiness  that  fills  too  many 
ordinary  homes  on  too  many  faceless 
streets  in  the  vast  country  we  live  in  now. 

"Does  '  'night.  Mother'  say  'No'  to 
hope?  It's  easy  to  feel  that  way  after  reel- 
ing from  this  play's  crushing  blow.  But

ding, and  it  is  Marsha  Norman's  pro- 
found achievement  that  she  brings  both 
understanding  and  dignity  to  forgotten

Ms.  Norman  and  her  husband,  Dann 
Byck,  a  retailer  turned  producer,  live  in 
an  apartment  on  New  Yark's  fashionable 
West  Side.  Her  newest  play,  "Traveler  in

American  Repertory  Theatre  in  Cam- 
bridge, Mass.  "It's  a  play  about  guilt  and 
reason,"  she  says.  "The  central  character 
is  a  surgeon  who  finds  himself  in  a  situa- 
tion where  his  intelligence  is  absolutely 
useless,  another  false  god." 

In  the  midst  of  her  success  and  future

r^  hree  Agnes  Scott  professors  are  conducting  trips 
abroad  this  summer  to  countries  whose  food  is  as 
well  known  as  their  landscapes.  Armed  with  the 
lowledge  that  the  lifestyles  of  people  in  different  cul- 
res  are  often  reflected  in  what  they  eat  and  how  they 
epare  their  food,  this  writer  asked  the  three  profes- 
rs  about  their  personal  culinary  likes  and  dislikes. 
With  a  sense  of  humor,  all  the  while  rueing  the 
riter's  misplaced  editorial  judgment,  the  professors 
luctantly  answered  questions  about  their  attitudes 
ward  cooking. 

All  three  professors  also  agreed  to  share  a  recipe

Bobbie  socks  and  big  band  sounds  returned  to  Agnes 
Scott  in  December  when  a  Hollywood  movie  crew  filmed 
scenes  around  the  campus. 

The  College's  architecture  had  lured  producer  Larry 
Spangler  to  choose  Agnes  Scott  as  the  main  location  for 


"The  Bear,"  his  $8  million  movie  about 
late  University  of  Alabama  football 
coach  Paul  "Bear"  Bryant.  Spangler's 
crew  sprinkled  silk  dogwood  trees  and 
fresh  flowers  across  the  December-dreary 
campus,  and  the  Alumnae  House  be- 
came the  site  for  Coach  Bryant's  home. 
Dressing  rooms  lined  the  campus'  yellow 
curbs,  and  100  male  teenagers  roamed 
the  women's  locker  room. 

Paint,  wallpaper  and  borrowed  furni- 
ture transformed  Main's  McKinney 
Date  Parlor  into  the  set  for  the  Univer- 
sity of  Alabama's  president's  office,  and 
Winship  Hall  was  home  to  a  chaotic 
mass  of  hairdressers,  makeup  artists  and 
wardrobe  crew  members. 

"This  school  has  become  our 
godsend,"  said  Mr  Spangler,  an  attrac- 
tive man  in  his  40s,  with  permed  gray 
hair  and  a  diamond  stud  earring  in  one 
ear  "It's  like  a  movie  studio." 
£  Z^f  he  Bear"  stars  Gary  Busey  in 
I   the  title  role.  Busey  is  best 
"   known  as  the  star  of  "The 
Buddy  Holly  Story,"  and  his  ability  to 
mimic  people  has  earned  him  respect. 
Not  only  could  Busey  imitate  many  of 
Bryant's  characteristics,  says  the  pro- 
ducer, but  he  was  the  right  age  for 
makeup  artists  to  change  him  from  a 
teenager  to  an  older  man  in  the  course 
of  filming  —  six  makeovers  in  all. 

Mr.  Spangler  decided  to  film  the 
movie  in  Georgia  after  Bryant's  family 
objected  to  filming  in  Alabama.  Al- 


though before  his  death  Coach  Bryant 
had  given  Spangler  permission  to  make 
the  mo\'ie,  the  coach's  family  objected 


to  the  script  and  some  of  the  casting. 
They  wanted  a  more  well-known  actor 
to  play  Bear  Bryant. 

Bear  Bryant  first  had  hoped  John 
Wayne  could  portray  him,  but  the  leg- 


endary actor  died  before  casting  began. 
Spangler  approached  George  C.  Scott 
with  the  part,  but  they  could  not  agree 
on  the  actor's  fee.  Spangler  says  he  also 
considered  Burt  Lancaster,  but  felt  the 
actor  was  too  old  to  play  the  Bear  as  a 
teenager. 

As  he  considered  a  list  of  prominent 
actors,  Spangler  realized  most  of  them 
were  too  short.  Someone  recommended 
he  contact  Gary  Busey,  who  had  plaved 
football  in  Oklahoma  and  was  South- 
ern. Busey  read  the  script,  lost  40 
pounds,  had  his  teeth  capped  and 
started  to  work. 

The  actor  spent  a  mc^nth  in  Birm- 
ingham meeting  people  and  listening  to 
stories  about  the  famous  coach;  he 
watched  100  hours  of  \ideotapes  of 
Bryant,  and  he  talked  with  men  who 
had  played  fcxitball  under  Tlie  Bear. 

"Gary's  knockin'  'em  dead,"  Spangler 
says  ccinfidently.  "He's  got  Bear's  move- 
ments down.  Busey 's  a  talented  actor  — 
he'll  be  bankable  after  this." 

Although  Busey  is  a  talented  actor, 
"Gary  is  difficult  to  work  with,"  admit- 
ted the  producer  "But  I'm  difficult  to 
work  with.  I  treat  my  people  well.  I  take 
care  of  them,  but  they  work  or  they  go 
home." 

Spangler  predicts  Busey  will  earn  an 
Oscar  nomination  for  his  portrayal  of 
Bear  Bryant.  He  recalled  the  scene  when 
Busey  made  a  locker  room  speech  to  the 
football  team  about  a  Saturday  Evening

Big  Band  plays  as  hun- 
dreds of  extras  dance  in 
Buclier  Scott  Gynfmasium. 


.  ::il 


Post  article  which  alleged  that  Coach 
Bryant  fixed  a  game.  The  crew  and  ex- 
tras gave  the  actor  a  standing  ovation  at 
the  end  of  the  take.  Another  scene  re- 
quired Busey  to  fake  a  heart  attack. 
Spangler  said  the  acting  was  so  convinc- 
ing that  it  unnerved  several  onlookers. 

But  the  producer  isn't  the  only  one 
who  can  almost  feel  the  Oscar  in  his 
hand.  "Press  your  tux,"  Busey  quips  to 
Spangler,  after  ending  a  scene  well. 

Since  the  Agnes  Scott  students  were 
on  Christmas  vacation,  only  a  few 
worked  as  extras.  But  many 
Atlantans  came  to  campus  to  be  extras 
in  the  football  and  dance  scenes.  For 
one  dance  set  in  Rebekah  Reception 
Room,  production  workers  hung  hun- 
dreds of  45  rpm  records  from  the  ceiling 
as  students  in  '50s  era  costumes  — 
ducktail  haircuts,  saddle  oxfords  and 
bobbie  socks  —  packed  the  noisy  room. 
In  a  more  elegant  dance  staged  in  the 
gym,  more  than  200  people,  dressed  in 
'30s  ballgowns  and  tuxedos,  danced  to 
Big  Band  tunes  to  set  the  scene  where 
Paul  Bryant  first  met  his  wife. 

Because  Spangler  had  only  three 
months  to  film  the  movie,  all  the  crew 
members  felt  pressured,  he  says.  "All  of 
us  like  the  recognition,"  he  added,  not- 
ing interview  requests  from  magazines 
and  newspapers  nationwide  —  Sports 
Illustrated,  Rollmg  Stone  and  even  Andy 
Warhol's  /ntfrrieic. 

/  Z^Phe  Bear"  has  put  Agnes  Scott 
I   in  the  national  spotlight.  Be- 
B   sides  local  magazine,  television 
and  newspaper  features,  the  College  re- 
ceived mention  on  "Entertainment 
Tonight,"  in  USA  Today,  in  People  Maga- 
zine and  elsewhere. 

There  were  other  benefits  as  well.  The 
film's  production  staff  repaired  and 
restored  the  sites  they  used,  and  the 
College  could  choose  to  keep  the  set 
dressing  or  have  them  changed  back  to 
the  original  look.  The  date  parlors  in 
Main  dormitory  were  on  the  list. 
McKinney  Date  Parlor  was  wallpapered 
and  Dieckmann  Date  Parlor  got  a  fresh 
coat  of  paint  and  some  new  draperies. 
One  of  the  Alumnae  House  rooms  was 
also  repainted,  and  Rebekah  Reception 
Room  got  a  new  set  of  draperies. 

This  is  not  the  first  time  Agnes  Scott 
has  been  chosen  as  location  for  films. 
"The  Four  Seasons,"  "The  Double 
McGuffin"  and  "A  Man  Called  Peter" 
were  also  filmed  in  part  on  the  campus. 

When  students  returned  to  register  for 
winter  quarter,  few  traces  of  Hollywood 
remained.  Students  will  have  to  wait  un- 
til the  movie's  October  premiere  to  see 
their  campus  portrayed  as  the  University 
of  Alabama.  ■

more  profoundly  influenced  by  her  expe- 
rience in  traveling  in  Eastern  countries 
than  her  impressions  from  the  art  cen- 
ters of  Europe. 

Her  journey  into  the  isolated,  primi- 
tive land  of  the  Himalayan  mountains, 
where  dawn  and  dusk  were  the  only  re- 
minders of  time,  opened  a  new  world  to 
her  of  different  people  and  a  different 
way  of  life. 

"The  Himalayan  experience  was  a  new 
high  because  it  tapped  so  much  of  my 
life.  The  least  of  it  is  the  whole  survival 
issue  —  being  in  a  fairly  primitive  space 
for  several  weeks  and  living  the  way  we 
did  in  a  strange  culture. 

"During  this  trek,  I  became  intrigued 
with  where  ground  and  sky  merge  and 
how  they  don't  merge.  Where  does  one 
end  and  the  other  begin?  Where  does 
man  or  woman  and  nature  begin  and 
end?  You  can  take  that  question  into  the 
environment  and  what  we're  doing  to 
the  earth." 

Returning  from  the  Himalayas  to  the 
fast  world  of  cars,  phones,  computers, 
and  daily  schedules,  Terry's  exhiliration 
changed  to  frustration.  She  retreated  to 
a  family  cabin  on  the  Florida  panhandle 


to  find  peace  and  quiet  again.  During 
this  time,  she  experienced  loneliness  and 
sadness  and  her  moods,  again,  were  re- 
flected in  her  work.  Most  of  her  seascape 
pictures  display  dark  bold  colors  which 
convey  a  somber,  melancholy  feeling. 

"I  don't  like  living  and  moving  as  fast 
as  I  live  and  move  in  this  country.  Dur- 
ing my  sabbatical  year,  having  the  time 
to  learn  how^  to  relax,  learning  not  to 
push  myself,  I  found  out  there  was 
another  way  to  li\'e.  I  discovered  a  new 
side  of  myself  that  wanted  'to  be'  rather 
than  'to  be  driven.'  We  live  calendars, 
we  live  clocks.  I  feel  like  I'm  back  in  the 
fast  lane  and  I  mourn  the  loss  of  being 
in  another  culture  where  nobody  gave  a 
damn  about  the  time  —  when  it  got 
done,  it  got  done,"  she  explains. 

"1  will  never  work  8-to-5.  I  hoped  that 
I  could  on  my  sabbatical.  I  set  up  a  rigid 
schedule,  and  I  found  out  very  soon  that 
I  could  not  do  that.  The  sabbatical  was 
so  important  to  allow  me  time  to  get  in 
touch  with  the  'naturalness'  —  not  hav- 
ing to  compartmentalize  my  feelings  into 
making  art  on  Friday  afternoons  when  I 
wasn't  teaching  or  at  times  when  I  didn't 
want  to  do  it. 

"A  more  structured  life  does  not  allow 
for  that  ebb  and  flow  of  creativity  to 
come  in  and  out  of  your  life.  Different 
things  trigger  me  to  want  to  go  into  my 
studio  —  I  can  go  to  an  art  opening,  I 
can  attend  a  musical  event,  or  I  can  be 
with  a  special  person.  I  pretty  much  go 
on  my  natural  rhythms." 

A  professor  at  Agnes  Scott  for  eight 
years,  Terry  even  noticed  a  change  in 
her  teaching  style  after  returning  from 
her  sabbatical.  "I'm  more  flexible  now 
with  my  students.  I  am  still  as  demand- 
ing, but  in  a  soul-searching  way.  I  chal- 
lenge them  to  think  more  about  'why.'  I 
teach  them  technical  skills,  but  I  want 
them  to  go  further  —  to  look  inside 
themselves  and  think.  I  allow  for  differ- 
ent things  now  —  a  more  spiritual 
approach. 

"We  were  all  born  with  creativity, 
and  we  want  to  do  something  creative, 
whether  it's  to  take  a  photography 
course  or  to  learn  to  weave.  But  we 
don't  always  integrate  this  artistic  ex- 
pression into  our  lives.  At  Agnes  Scott,  I 
want  to  influence  these  women,  who 
won't  necessarily  be  artists,  but  who  will 
incorporate  art  into  their  lives. 

"I  feel  that  if  we  can't  share  more  of 
ourselves,  whether  through  visual  art, 
dance,  music,  loving,  or  caring  or  what- 
ever, then  what  is  it  about?  '^Tiat  is  life  if 
we  can't  share  the  rainbow  we  experi- 
ence in  our  lives  —  the  darks,  the  lights, 
and  everything  in  between?"  ■

AGNES  SCOTT  ALUMNAE  MAGAZINE  27 


••  Y^o*-^  have  to  keep  open 

X  the  windows  of  wonder, 
maintains  Dr.  Walter  Edward 
McNair,  Professor  Emeritus  oi 

English  at  Agnes  Scott,  former  Director 
of  Public  Relations  and  De\'elopment, 
and  author  of  a  recently  published  his- 
tory of  the  College,  "Lest  We  Forget." 

Dr.  McNair's  capacity  for  wonder, 
which  sparked  a  generation  of  superior 
students,  has  not  diminished  since  his 
retirement  in  1977.  It  illuminates  the 
comprehensive,  definitive  history  he 
wrote  at  his  old  desk  in  a  handsome, 
paneled  office  on  the  second  floor  of 
McCain  Library.  And  it  sharpens  the  in 
cisive  wit  with  which  he  now  compiles 
anecdotes  about  the  College,  gleaned 
from  stories  of  alumnae  all  over  the 
nation. 

"Many  of  us  have  become  so  prag- 
matic, so  practical,  so  earthbound  in  ou 
whole  outlook  on  and  attitude  toward 
life  that  we  ha\'e  lost  our  capacity  to 
wonder,"  he  told  the  Agnes  Scott  stu- 
dent body  in  an  Investiture  address  in 
1976.  "Our  values  have  been  polluted  b' 
the  commonplace  and  pedestrian.  We 
no  longer  stand  v\'ide-eyed  in  awe  before 
the  beautiful  as  our  imaginations  take 
flight  and  excitement  runs  riot  through 
our  blood." 

Dr.  McNair  bases  his  capacity  for 
wonder  on  three  things:  the  creative 
genius  of  the  human  mind,  our  capacity 
for  love  and  selflessness  and  "that  the 
ultimate  realization  of  selfhood  can  re- 
sult from  completely  identifying  one's 
purposes  and  ideals  with  a  cause  or  an 
institution  greater  than  oneself" 

The  company  of  Agnes  Scott  teachers 
students  and  alumnae  who  have  given 
themselves  to  the  College,  he  says,  con- 
tinually inspire  him.  He  cites  Professor 
Ellen  Douglass  Leyburn,  an  alumna  of 
the  Class  of  1927  and  a  faculty  member 
for  32  years,  who,  he  says,  "personified 
the  union  of  the  great  teacher  with  the 
constantly  producti\'e,  publishing 
scholar."  He  also  points  to  Miss  Nan- 
nette  Hopkins,  "the  first  teacher  em- 
ployed in  ISS*^  when  Agnes  Scott  was 
still  a  dream,"  and  Professor  Samuel 
Guerry  Stukes,  who  gave  his  life  to  the 
College  and  was  a  "devoted  husband 
and  father,  a  respected  and  effecti\'e 
citizen,  and  an  actively  participating 
member  of  his  church." 

Dr.  McNair,  legendary  for  his  dedica- 
tion to  Agnes  Scott,  began  his  adminis- 
trative work  under  President  Wallace 
Alston  and  continued  under  President 
Mar\in  B.  Perry  Jr.  "One  could  have  no 
better  men  to  work  for,"  Dr.  McNair 
says. 


.S- 


As  Director  of  Public  Relations  and 
evelopment,  McNair  was  compulsively 
tentive  to  detail.  "When  the  ox  is  in 
e  ditch,  we  must  all  pull  together  to 
t  him  out,"  he  used  to  say.  Once, 
Ken  a  dignitary  was  to  visit  the  Col- 
^e,  Dr.  McNair  spotted  some  pigeon 
oppings  on  the  front  steps  of  Buttrick 
all,  grabbed  a  mop  and  washed  the 
:ps  himself. 

A  tap  dance  of  his  made  campus  his- 
ry  when  he  kept  step  with  dance  in- 
■uctor  Marylin  Darling  at  a  Junior 
unt  Talent  Show  several  years  before 
■  retired.  The  student  who  asked  the 
ilding  sexagenarian  to  attempt  this  feat 

"When  the  ox  is  in  the 
ditch,  we  must  all  pull 
together  to  get  him  out. 

;ver  expected  him  to  accept  the  chal- 
ige.  He  looked  at  her  steadily  through 
s  rimless  glasses  and  replied,  "Of 
iurse,  I  will.  How  long  have  I  got  to 
t  ready?" 

For  two  months,  on  Wednesday  and 
iday  afternoons,  Ms.  Darling  and  Dr. 
cNair  practiced  in  the  basement  of 
e  gym.  Frequently  Dr.  McNair  would 
jp,  stare  sadly  at  his  feet,  and  tell  her, 
Ars.  Darling,  my  mind  understands 
iplicitly  the  four,  five  and  sLx  count. 
It  my  feet  don't  seem  inclined  to  co- 
)erate.  Let's  go  over  that  again." 
The  night  of  the  Junior  Jaunt,  Dr. 
cNair  and  Ms.  Darling  dressed  in 
arching  red  plaid  slacks  (his  usual 
mpus  garb),  blue  vests,  bow  ties  and 
mbands,  billing  themselves  as  Mac  'n' 
are.  With  verve  and  precision,  they 
d  their  routine.  Dr.  McNair  kicking  up 
s  heels  and  wagging  a  hand  over  his 
:ad  like  Jimmy  Durante.  The  crowd 
:nt  wild.  Dr.  McNair,  listening  to  the 

He  looked  at  her  flushed 
face  and  disheveled  hair 

and  told  her  sternly, 
"Miss  Skinner,  you  look 
like  the  ivheels  of  de- 
struction going  downhill." 

underous  applause,  turned  to  his  part- 

:r  and  said  with  awe,  "I  believe  we  did 

perfectly." 

But  "one  cannot  improve  on  perfec- 

)n,"  so  he  refused  the  junior  class 

len  they  petitioned  him  to  repeat  his 

rformance  the  next  year. 

Dr.  McNair  leavens  his  formal, 

Iwardian  manner  with  a  keen  wit,  and 

;  is  known  for  his  bon  mots.  Once  a 


student  appeared  in  his  English  class  10 
minutes  late.  He  looked  at  her  flushed 
face  and  disheveled  hair  and  told  her 
sternly,  "Miss  Skinner,  you  look  like  the 
wheels  of  destruction  going  downhill." 

Today,  Dr.  McNair  looks  back  over 
a  full,  rich  life.  Born  in  Atlanta  near 
where  the  Fulton  County  Stadium 
stands  now,  he  graduated  from  Boys 
High  School,  "of  which  I  am  very 
proud,"  he  says.  He  went  on  to  David- 
son College,  where  he  graduated  summa 
cum  laude,  then  returned  to  Atlanta  to 
teach  English  at  Commercial  High 
School  for  nine  years  before  joining  the 
Army  as  a  private  in  1942. 

For  three  years,  he  was  stationed  in 
England,  where  he  says,  "the  country- 
side whetted  my  love  for  English  litera- 
ture." He  emerged  as  a  major  but  later 
became  a  lieutenant  colonel  in  the 
Reserves. 

When  he  returned  to  the  States,  his 
widowed  mother,  whom  he  adored,  was 
in  her  70s.  Determined  to  go  back  to 
school  on  the  G.I.  Bill,  Edward  McNair 
enrolled  in  graduate  school  at  Emory 
University  after  teaching  one  more  year 
at  Commercial  High.  In  1949  he  started 
work  on  his  doctorate,  and  after  com- 
pleting his  course  work  in  1952,  he  came 
to  Agnes  Scott  as  associate  professor.  He 
finished  his  dissertation  four  years  later. 

A  bachelor  who  says  he  "never  found 
a  girl  I  loved  enough  to  marry  who 
would  have  me,"  Dr.  McNair  found 
compensations  in  the  single  life.  "First 
my  mother  was  the  polar  center  of  my 
life,"  he  explains.  "For  31  years  now,  the 
polar  center  has  been  Agnes  Scott.  I've 
enjoyed  my  freedom;  if  I  had  married,  I 
might  not  have  had  as  much  time  to 
give  to  Agnes  Scott." 

An  active  layman  at  Druid  Hills 
Presbyterian  Church  for  40  years,  he  has 
served  as  an  elder  for  three  decades.  His 
small  circle  of  intimate  friends  range 
from  those  with  silver  hair  and  in  their 
80s  to  couples  who  could  be  his  grand- 
children. He  has  two  godchildren  and 
two  namesakes  to  whom  he  is  devoted. 

"It's  been  a  wonderfully  fine  thing,"  he 
says  of  the  changes  he  has  seen  in  his 
years  at  the  College.  "1984  is  not  the 
same  as  1952.  I  have  watched  the  Col- 
lege as  it  tried  to  keep  pace  with  the 
times." 

He  notes  the  increased  freedom  of  the 
students,  recalling  how  they  used  to  be 
required  to  sign  in  and  out  and  observe 
lights  out.  "The  curriculum  has  loosened 
up.  It  is  relevant,  appropriate  for  the 
times,  and  there's  more  freedom  of 
choice  in  the  courses,"  he  adds.  "The 
faculty  is  larger,  but  not  one  whit  better. 
There  are  more  married  women  in  the 


faculty  and  more  men.  When  the  men 
were  in  the  minority,  they  used  to  have 
lunch  together  every  Tuesday  to  'main- 
tain their  integrity.'  " 

He  also  recalls  a  time  when  students 
wore  blue  jeans  and  shorts  only  on 
"Suppressed  Desires  Day."  "Today 
they're  worn  by  all  the  students,  'fcu 
rarely  see  skirts  and  sweaters  anymore." 

The  student  body  is  much  more  mo- 
bile, he  observes.  When  he  came  to  the 
College,  students  were  not  allowed  to 
have  cars.  "Today  most  students  have 
cars,  and  parking  is  a  problem." 

Dr.  McNair  has  seen  four  new  build- 
ings go  up  on  campus,  and  he  takes 
pride  that  he  was  active  in  the  Seventy- 
fifth  Anniversary  Development  Fund 
which  made  possible  the  construction  of 
the  Dana  Fine  Arts  Building.  During 
that  time,  under  Dn  Alston,  he  worked 

For  3 1  years  the  polar

closely  with  alumnae  groups  —  "a  great 
group  of  women,"  he  says,  beaming. 

Since  his  retirement,  he  has  received 
several  awards  and  accolades.  A  loyal 
Davidson  alumnus  who  has  served  as 
president  of  his  class  every  year  since  his 
graduation,  he  was  given  Davidson's 
Alumni  Service  Medal  honoring  his  50 
years  of  work.  An  active  member  and 
past  president  of  Phi  Beta  Kappa,  he  was 
honored  by  Agnes  Scott  with  a  student 
fund  in  his  name  to  support  visits  to 
campus  from  Phi  Beta  Kappa  scholars. 

Although  Dr.  McNair  may  stoop

'TheYear  Of  Introspection' 


At  the  opening  convocation  in  the  faR  of  1983  I  cited  the  words  ofjaroslav 
/..\Pelikan,  eminent  church  hslomn  at  Yale,  who  speaks  of  the  ongoing  life  of 
JL      jL.people  and  institutions  as  "the  mysterious  relationship  between  continuity  and 
change. "  Most  of  the  academic  year  1983-84  was  spent  in  assessing  where  we  r\ow 
are  in  order  to  dJo  the  important  work  of  planning  for  the  second  century  of  this  great 
College's  life.  We  shaR  build  on  our  long  heritage  and  on  the  many  studies  and 
consukatiuns  of  these  last  two  years  to  shape  a  strong  future  based  on  common 
aspirations. 

We  at  Agnes  Scott  share  a  commitment  to  the  liberal  arts,  to  the  education  of 
\vomen,  and  to  the  ongoing  exploration  of  the  meaning  of  that  commitment  in  &ds 
uncertain  year  of  1984,  just  five  years  from  our  centennial  celebration.  Our  sharing 
this  commitment  to  the  kind  of  college  Agnes  Scott  is  and  has  been  makes  us  a 
minority  in  the  world  of  higher  education. 

I  am  concerned  that  we  as  Americans  tend  toward  the  immediate  and  what  we 
deem  practical,  such  as  in  education.  Consequently,  many  people  wiU  miss  the  most 
irr\portant  aspect  of  the  hherd  arts  —  the  liberating  experience  of  a  liberal  education. 
It  has  to  do  with  being  freed  from  the  limitations  of  any  one  person's  understanding  of 
God's  luorld. 

The  liberal  arts  are  liberating  arts,  freeing  us  "from  the  parochialisms  of  our  own 
time  ard  place  and  station, "  as  Princeton's  President  William  Bowen  has  said.  We 
study  history  and  dream  about  the  future  to  expand  our  hmzons  in  time.  We  must 
live  in  this  particular  and  peculiar  time,  but  we  can  live  weR,  with  understanding  and 
perspective,  ordy  by  knowing  what  has  preceded  us  arul  by  planning  for  what  wiU  be. 

A  liberal  arts  education  liberates  us  from  the  slavery  of  place  by  curing  us  of 
cultural  myopia.  One  of  the  most  vcduabk  things  we  can  ham  is  that  many  human 
beings  with  the  same  God-given  talents  have  structured  their  worlds  in  different  ways. 
B}i  understanding  another  culture,  we  have  greater  insight  into  our  own.  Perhaps 
because  of  my  owii  experience  of  Hispanic  culture,  one  of  my  dreams  for  Agnes  Scott 
is  that  every  graduate  wiR  have  had  significant  exposure  to  another  way  of  life, 
another  language,  ar^ther  manner  of  viewing  the  world. 

President  Bowen's  words  remind  us  that  a  liberal  education  should  free  us  from  the 
parochialism  of  station  as  weR.  There  is  nothing  so  freeing  from  our  anxieties  and 
concerns  as  involvement  with  those  whose  station  in  Ufe  dictates  that  shelter,  daily 
food,  and  even  water  to  drink  and  bathe  in,  are  uppermost  in  all  vxiking  t/ioughts. 
Our  privileges  and  uncommon  opportunities  as  the  liberaRy  educated  derryind  that  we 
devote  our  lives  to  the  service  of  others,  of  those  who  for  many  reasons  —  economic, 
medical,  or  political  —  cannot  live  the  liberated  life. 

A  liberal  and  liberating  education  prods  people  to  develop  mental  and  spiritual 
qualities  which  enable  them  to  develop  unique  ways  of  being  —  modes  of  relating  to 
die  past,  to  culture  and  experiences,  but  uhmately,  individuoRy  shaped,  unique  to 
each  one.  The  liberaRy  educated  person  is  the  one  who  digs  out  the  facts,  tteigfis  the 
evidence,  e:3^lores  what  has  been  discovered  and  what  can  be  known,  organizes 
materials  to  influence  and  persuade  others,  and  makes  choices  marked  by  selflessness, 
service,  and  a  vision  of  the  whole. 

We  at  Agnes  Scott  College  are  dedicated  to  providing  the  best  possible  conditions 
for  this  kind  of  liberating  experience  as  we  live  out  the  "mysterious  relationship 
between  continuity  and  change. "  We  are  grateful  for  your  participation  and  support  in 
this  crucial  work.

THE  PRESIDENT'S  REPORT 


The  1983-84  academic  year  was  one 
of  preparation  and  self-study,  a 
basic  undertaking  for  an  institution 
ivhich  will  observe  its  centennial 
ivithin  five  years.  We  at  Agnes  Scott 
ivant  to  be  ready  to  celebrate  a  joyous 
3ne  hundred  years  and  the  beginning 
af  the  College's  second  century.  Funda- 
mental to  this  process  was  the  February 
visit  of  a  team  of  colleagues  from  other 
Southern  colleges.  They  did  a  reaffir- 
ntiation  evaluation  based  on  a  campus 
self-study  completed  in  the  fall. 

During  the  course  of  the  year,  we 
invited  consultants  fi^om  other  educa- 
tional institutions  to  help  us  assess  our 
admissions  and  athletic  programs,  and 
these  refX)rts  will  also  be  a  part  of  our 
planning. 

A  new  committee  created  by  action 
af  the  faculty  performed  a  very  impor- 
tant planning  function  as  well.  This 
Creative  Ideas  Coordinating  Commit- 
tee worked  diligently  to  listen  to  all 
constituencies  of  the  College  and  then 
to  organize  and  present  suggestions  to 
enhance  this  institution. 

To  show  the  best  of  our  physical 
heritage  in  our  splendid  buildings, 
extensive  renovation  must  be  done 
before  1989.  The  administration  asked 
the  architectural  firm  of  Spillman 
Farmer  of  Bethlehem,  Pennsylvania,  to 
develop  a  comprehensive  master  plan. 
These  professionals  lived  on  campus, 
ate  in  die  dining  hall,  and  tested  their 
ideas  and  sketches  by  posting  them  on 
a  residence  parlor  wall,  involving  the 
community  in  the  excitement  of  the 
plans.  Their  plans  include  renovation 
of  Inman,  Main,  and  Rebekah  Scott 
residences,'  the  infirmary  and  the  gym- 
nasium; construction  of  a  new 
swimming  pool,  playing  field  and 
track;  and  improvement  of  campus 
landscaping  and  traffic  patterns.  The 
Board  of  Trustees  approved  this  com- 
prehensive plan  at  its  May  meeting. 

The  College  has  also  studied  energy 
conservation  possibilities  on  campus. 
This  study  calls  for  the  installation  of 
independent  hot  water  heating  systems 
in  each  building  and  the  phasing  out 
of  the  antiquated  steam  plant.  Both 
the  energy  and  the  architectural  plans 
will  be  carried  out  in  the  next  five 
years. 

To  coordinate  and  carry  forward 
what  we  have  learned  by  internal 
studies  and  evaluations  by  outside 


experts,  the  College  formed  a  Second 
Century  Committee  this  spring  to  do 
strategic  planning.  The  committee  rep- 
resents all  areas  of  the  College 
community.  We  look  forward  to  explor- 
ing new  ideas  and  directions  for  the 
College  while  maintaining  and  preserv- 
ing all  that  is  good  in  the  wonderful 
heritage  of  this  institution. 

Over  the  years  the  College  has 
been  blessed  by  the  many  people 
who  have  provided  strong  leadership 
and  devoted  years  of  their  lives  in 
service  to  Agnes  Scott.  The  members 
of  the  Board  of  Trustees  are  among 
those  to  help  perpetuate  the  tradition 
of  excellence  with  their  contributions 
of  time  and  expertise. 

New  members  of  the  Board  of 
Trustees  include  Susan  M.  Phillips  '67, 
who  chairs  the  Federal  Commodity 
Futures  Trading  Commission  in  Wash- 
ington, D.C.,  and  six  trustees  elected 
at  the  May  meeting:  Jean  Salter  Reeves 
'59,  retiring  Alumnae  Association  pres- 
ident; Jo  Ann  Sawyer  Delafield  '58; 
Betty  Pope  Scott  Noble  '44;  John 
Weitnauer,  Jr. ,  chairman  and  chief 
executive  officer  of  Richway,  Inc. ;  B. 
Franklin  Skinner,  president  of  South- 
em  Bell;  and  Bennett  A.  Brown, 
president  of  Citizens  &.  Southern 
National  Bank. 

At  a  festive  dinner  in  Evans  Dining 
Hall,  the  eve  of  the  May  board 
meeting,  the  College  community  paid 
tribute  to  retiring  trustees  Alex  Gaines, 
Hansford  Sams,  and  A.H.  Sterne.  Mr. 
Gaines  chaired  the  board  from  1973  to 
1979  and  is  the  grandson  of  Agnes 
Scott's  first  president.  Mr.  Sams,  a 
great-grandson  of  the  founder  of  the 
College,  recently  served  on  the  execu- 
tive committee  and  the  buildings  and 
grounds  committee.  Mr.  Sterne's  recent 
service  included  the  investment  and 
the  academic  affairs  committees. 

That  same  evening,  the  College  also 
said  good-bye  to  retiring  Dean  Julia  T. 
Gary,  who  begins  her  Master  of 
Divinity  Degree  studies  at  Emory  Uni- 
versity's Candler  School  of  Theology 
this  fall.  She  gave  a  fine  address  on 
Agnes  Scott's  liberal  arts  heritage.  Two 
other  retiring  officers,  Lee  Barclay,  vice 
president  for  business  affairs,  and  Paul 
M.  McCain,  special  assistant  to  the 
president  for  planned  giving  and  vice 
president  for  development  from  1969  to 
1983,  were  also  recognized  by  the 


As  a  result  of  studies  by  an 
architectural  firm  arvi  an  energy 
consulting  firm,  the  College  plans 
to  renovate  campus  buildings  and 
install  a  new  heating  system  by  the 
centennial.

College  10  establish  an  academic 
computer  center. 

Alumnae  and  friends  experienced

Students  beyond  the  traditional

and  scope  of  the  Return  to  College 
program. 


assembled  group. 

The  College  was  saddened  hy  the 
deadi  in  New  York  June  28  of  Cissie 
Spiro  Aidinoff '51,  a  fonner  Alumnae 
Association  president  who  had  just 
completed  a  four-year  term  as  alumna 
trustee. 

As  Agnes  Scott  approaches  the 
beginning  of  her  second  century, 
the  College  is  expanding  its  Return  to 
College  Program  under  new  director 
Marilynn  Mallory.  Working  closely 
with  the  Office  o{  the  Dean  of  the 
QiUege  and  the  Office  of  Admissions, 
the  RTC  program  quickly  put  to  work 
a  one-million-doUar  gift  from  the  estate 
of  Irene  K.  Woodruff  to  endow  RTC 
financial  aid.  Return  to  College  meet- 
ings and  a  newsletter  have  enhanced 
communication  and  awareness  of  the 
gifts  and  needs  ot  women  beyond  the 
usual  college  age  of  18  to  22. 

Another  innovative  program  is  the 
academic  computing  center  on  the 
ground  floor  of  the  library.  An  attrac- 
tive facility  equipped  with  IBM 
Personal  Computers  and  Apple  He's, 
the  academic  computing  center  is 
assisting  the  faculty  and  students  to  use 
computers  in  all  applicable  parts  of  the 
liberal  arts  curriculum.  Professor 
Thomas  W.  Hogan,  coordinator  of  the 
program,  has  done  a  fine  job  in  his 
first  year  in  charge  of  the  program. 

The  G'jlleges  administrative  side  is 
abo  becoming  computerized,  guided  by 
Director  oi  Administrative  Computing 
Robert  M.  Thies,  who  came  in  Janu- 
ary. The  imminent  claiming  of  a 
$125,000  duPont  challenge  grant  will 
complete  the  half-million-dollar  fund- 
raising  for  computers  and  software  for 
instructional  and  administrative  uses. 

Also  new  this  year  was  Agnes 
Scott's  first  Alumnae  College.  The 
successful  June  18-22  event  drew  fifty- 
three  alumnae  and  friends  from  as  far 
away  as  New  York  and  Pennsylvania  to 
the  campus  for  one  of  three  courses 
taught  by  Agnes  Scott  faculty  members 
Miriam  Daicker  (psychology),  Mar- 
garet Pepperdene  (English),  and 
Thomas  Hogan  (computer).  Plans  are 
already  underway  to  make  the  Alum- 
nae College  an  annual  event,  so  plan 
to  be  with  us  next  summer 

The  QiUege  alai  welcomed  its  first 
chaplain  this  yean  Mary  Jane  Kerr 
Qimell  '74,  asscKiate  pasttir  at  Qilum- 
bia  Presbytt^rian  Church,  led  us  in 


wt^rship  and  prayer,  offering  spiritual 
encouragement  and  guidance  to  the 
G)llege  community. 

Agnes  Scott  is  known  throughout 
metropolitan  Atlanta  for  its  valu- 
able contribution  of  cultural  events  to 
the  public.  The  College  not  only  offers 
arts  entertainment  by  members  of  its 
community,  but  brings  in  nationally 
acclaimed  performers  and  artists  as 
well. 

The  Kirk  Concert  Series'  successful 
third  season  included  classical  pianist 
Garrick  Ohlsson,  classical  guitarist 
Christopher  Parkening,  and  the  Guar- 
neri  String  Quartet. 

Agnes  Scott  provided  other  musical 
entertainment,  such  as  pianist  Lois 
Leventhal,  the  Washington  and  Lee 
University  Jazz  Band,  and  the 
Augsburg  College  Choir. 

Divertissement,  "a  pleasant  diver- 
sion," was  a  half-hour  of  light 
entertainment  which  featured  guests 
such  as  Broadway  cabaret  singer 
Sandra  Dorsey,  folk  musicians  Elise 
Witt  and  the  Small  Family  Orchestra, 
the  illusionists  New  World  Theatre 
G:)mpany,  and  the  Atlanta  Civic 
Opera  Studio. 

The  Lecture  Committee,  comprised 
of  faculty  members  and  students, 
invited  a  variety  of  guests  to  the 
campus.  The  Roadside  Theater  pre- 
sented Red  Fox/Seccmd  Hangin'  in  the 
fall.  The  National  Theatre  of  the  Deaf, 
known  for  their  spectacular  acting  as 
well  as  their  ability  to  use  voice  and 
sign  language  for  hoth  hearing  and 
hearing- impaired  audiences,  and  the 
Florida  State  University  Dance  Theatre 
Qimpany  attracted  large  audiences  dur- 
ing the  winter  season.  Sally  Fitzgerald, 
editor  of  The  Habit  of  Being,  spoke  in 
April  about  her  friendship  with  Geor- 
gia author  Rannery  O'Connor.  The 
film  Wise  Bfcxxi,  based  on  O'Connor's 
novel,  was  shown  in  conjunction  with 
Fitzgerald's  lecture. 

Linda  Fcistan  and  Richard  Wilbur, 
award-winning  poets  featured  during 
d-ie  1984  Writers'  Festival,  entertained 
several  groups  by  reading  and  discussing 
selections  from  their  works. 

Last  fall,  the  first  Great  Scott  Fes- 
tival attracted  visitors  from  throughout 
Atlanta.  Face  painting,  a  haunted 
house,  lectures,  glass-blowing  demon- 
strations, slide  shows,  campus  touts, 
festival  T-shirts,  ballcwns,  and  dance,

library  resources,  as  well  as  utilities 
and  rrmntenance  of  our  physical 
plant.  For  the  1983-84  ^"^nes  Scott 
Annual  Fur^d,  over  200  alumnae 
volunteers  directed  and  staffed  the 
drive  for  contributions.  Because  of 
these  volunteers  and  the  generosity 
of  over  3,400  alumnae,  Agnes 
Scott's  Annual  Fund  can  boast  a 
record  year. 

Alumnae  and  friends  gave  a 
record  $523,420  to  the  Annual 
Fund  Alumnae  contributed 
$291,502,  surpassing  their  god  of 
$250, 000.  The  most  exciting  news, 
however,  is  that  alumnae  participa- 
tion increased  from  32%  to  38%. 
Friends  of  the  College  also  set  a 
r\ew  giving  record  to  the  Annual 
Fund  by  giving $231,900,  almost 
^double  their  previous  high.  In  dona- 
tions to  all  furuls,  which  include  the 
Science  Hall,  endowment,  and 
computer,  alumnae  gave  $987, 669 
—  also  a  record,  if  bequests  are  not 
included 

The  response  from  alumnae, 
frieruis,  four\dations,  and  corpora- 
tions to  the  Jessie  Ball  duPont 
Challenge  Grant  for  academic  and 
administrative  computers  has  also 
been  excellent.  With  over  a  year  to 
go  to  meet  the  challenge,  we  are 
only  $27,000  short  of  our 
$374,000  goal  We  fuRy  expect  to 
claim  the  challenge  grant  before 
December  31,  1984. 

With  over  $1,886,000  in  gfts  to 
all  funds  of  the  College,  Agnes 
Scott  College  is  very  proud  of  its 
alumnae  and  friends.  Throi^  this 
valued  support  we  wiR  revnain 
dedicated  to  providing  the  best 
academic  education  possible  for 
ivomen  We  hope  that  everyone 
who  contributed  this  year  luiR  accept 
our  gratitude  and  know  how  very 
much  we  appreciate  their  support.

Through  the  years  alumnae  and 
friends  of  Agnes  Scott  have 
provided  gifts  to  buM  the  CoRege 
and  to  strengthen  its  programs. 
Many  of  these  gifts  have  made  it 
possible  to  improve  facuky  compen- 
sadon,  to  increase  financial  aid  to 
students,  and  to  add  books  for  the 
library  and  equipment  for  the  class- 
rooms  and  laboratories. 

Most  of  the  gifts  received  each 
year  are  unrestricted.  The  College 
can  apply  them  to  scholarship 
awards  or  to  some  other  budget 
needs.  When  a  gift  is  designated  for

coUege  programs, 

a  specific  purpose,  the  College 
respects  the  donor's  wish 

Some  restricted  gifts  are  made  for 
die  Endowment  so  that  the  principal 
will  be  held  intact  and  only  the 
iru:ome  wSl  be  used  for  general  or 
specific  purposes.  Gifts  for  student 
loan  funds  are  meeting  a  growing 
need.  Sometimes  a  donor  wiR  make 
a  gift  but  wiR  select  a  life-income 
plan  such  as  an  annuity,  thereby 
benefiting  both  the  College  and  the 
donor. 

Agnes  Scott  is  indebted  to  alum- 
nae and  frier\ds  for  their  interest  and 
generosity  in  estabUshir^  the  follow- 
ing permanent  funds  for  the 
CoUege.  The  amount  shown  for 
each  fund  represents  the  total  of 
all  gifts  received  through  June 
30,  1984. 

This  list  describes  individuoRy  all 
funds  of  $5,000  or  more,  but  it 
does  not  include  scholarships  pro- 
vided annually  by  the  donors. 
Please  let  the  Development  Office 
know  of  any  errors  or  omissions  so 
that  corrections  can  be  made.

Research  on  Women  at  Wellesley  Col- 
lege in  Massachusetts  and  a  pioneer  in 
the  women  and  scholarship  movement, 
is  the  daughter  of  alumna  Margaret 
Hay  Means  '23. 

Jane  Curry  presented  a  one-woman 
show,  Samantha  Rasdes  the  Woman 
Question,  which  portrayed  the  struggles 
of  19th-century  women  who  wrestled 
with  issues  in  the  1800s  concerning  the 
treatment  of  women  —  rights  denied 
them  by  the  church,  women's 
powerlessness  before  the  law,  social 
status,  and  role  assumptions. 

The  Mukicultural  Awareness  Sym- 
posium presented  programs  throughout 
the  year  which  spotlighted  contribu- 
tions of  non-European  cultures  in 
slides,  lectures,  panel  discussions,  and 
films. 

The  College's  vocal  groups,  the 
Glee  Club,  the  Madrigals,  and  London 
Fog,  performed  during  the  year.  In 
addition,  several  members  of  the  Glee 
Club  toured  and  performed  in  England 
this  summer  with  director  Theodore 
Mathews. 

Art  exhibits  in  the  Dalton  Galleries 
of  the  Dana  Fine  Arts  Building  dis- 
played the  talent  of  Agnes  Scott's  art 
professors  and  students,  while  the  Col- 
lege's theatre  troupe,  Blackfriars, 
produced  the  musical  GodspeU,  the 
children's  show  Wiley  and  the  Hairy 
Man,  and  the  comedy  House  of  Blue 
Leaves. 

Finally,  the  Bradley  Observatory 
brought  local  astronomy  enthusiasts  to 
campus  by  presenting  free  evening 
programs  each  month  with  lectures, 
planetarium  shows,  and  star-gazing 
through  telescopes. 

With  a  select  student  body  of  550, 
Agnes  Scott  often  finds  itself  in 
the  limelight.  This  year  Karla  Nell 
Vaughn  '86  became  Agnes  Scott's 
second  student  to  be  named  a  Truman 
Scholar.  Tracy  Veal  '84  was  chosen  to 
be  one  of  twenty  participants  to  attend 
the  American  Sociological  Association 
Honors  Program.  One  of  only  a  few 
Southerners,  she  was  the  first  black 
student  selected  to  attend  the  con- 
ference. 

Also  for  the  first  time,  students 
served  on  the  feculty  committees, 


The  first  Great  Scott  Festival 
brought  friends  and  neighbors  from 
the  Atlanta  community  to  the 
campus  for  fun  and  (earning. 


As  a  major  setting  for  the  movie, 
"The  Bear, "  the  College  received 
national  publicity. 


The  1983-84  Kirk  Concert  Series 
presented  renowned  musicians 
Garrick  Ohlsson,  Christopher 
Parkening,  and  the  Guameri 
String  Quartet.

which  examine  academic  standards, 
curriculum,  and  the  future  of  the 
Q>llege.  The  Student  Government 
AsstKiation  selects  these  students,  who 
serve  throughout  their  time  at  the 
College. 

About  two  hundred  students 
attended  Agnes  Scott's  second  career 
exploration  program  this  year,  pre- 
sented by  the  Career  Planning  Office. 
Forty-three  business  and  alumnae  rep- 
resentatives talked  with  students  about 
career  options. 

Agnes  Scott  not  only  can  boast 
about  its  seven-to-one  student-to-fac- 
ulty ratio,  but  also  about  the  close 
relationships  between  students  and  fac- 
ulty members.  Students  list  the  interest 
and  caring  shown  them  by  their  pro- 
fessors as  the  best  part  of  their  college 
experience. 

This  year  several  Agnes  Scott  faculty 
members  garnered  awards  for  their 
research.  A  chemistry  professor 
received  a  National  Science  Founda- 
tion grant  for  research  in  substituted 
naphthalimides,  and  an  economics 
professor  received  a  National  Endow- 
ment for  the  Humanities  fellowship  to 
study  "Business  in  the  History  of 
American  Culture." 

Faculty  members  published  articles 
in  such  journals  as  the  Journal  of  the 
History  of  Philosophy,  and  a  faculty 
member  served  as  guest  editor  for  the 
Sodobgical  Spectrum.  A  theatre  pro- 
fessor had  his  first  one-act  play 
accepted  for  publication  by  Baker's 
Plays  of  Boston  and  listed  by  Samuel 
French,  the  world's  largest  publisher  of 
plays. 

Faculty  members  served  on  commit- 
tees including  the  Meritorious 
Teaching  Award  Qimmittee,  the 
Executive  Committee  of  the  Ass<.x:ia- 
tion  of  Southeastern  Biologists,  the 
Southeastern  Chapter  of  the  Ecological 
S(x:iety  of  America,  the  chemistry 
division  of  University  Center  in  Geor- 
gia, and  the  screening  committee  for 
the  Fulbright  Africa  Awards. 

Women  and  scholarship  gained 
more  support  this  year  throughout  the 
metro  Atlanta  area  with  the  formation 
oi  a  women's  studies  group  comprised 
of  staff  and  facuky  from  area  colleges 
and  universities.  Members  of  the 
Agnes  Scott  faculty  and  staff  were 
instrumental  in  founding  this  group 
and  the  first  meeting  was  held  on  our 


campus.  In  addition,  faculty  at  Agnes 
Scott  met  regularly  to  discuss  women's 
political,  social,  and  economic  issues. 

During  the  past  year,  the  College 
received  news  of  many  alumnae. 
We  encourage  all  alumnae  to  send  us 
news  of  themselves  and  other  alumnae. 
The  alumnae  we  heard  from  included: 

Rachel  Henderlite  '28,  the  first  woman 
ordained  by  the  Presbyterian  Church, 
U.S.,  was  honored  by  Union  The- 
ological Seminary  in  New  York  with 
the  Union  Medal,  awarded  to  persons 
who  embody  die  mission  of  the  semi- 
nary to  the  world.  Austin  Presbyterian 
Theological  Seminary  celebrated 
Rachel  Henderlite  Day  in  May  to 
honor  their  professor  emerita.  She  was 
president  of  the  Consultation  on 
Church  Union  from  1976  to  1980. 

Peggy  Mathis  Lipsey  '62  was  named 
president  of  the  First  American  Bank

woman  to  be  president  of  a  nationally 
chartered  bank  in  the  state. 

Marsha  Norman  '69,  Pulitzer  Prize

The  Alumnae  Association  offered 
varied  and  stimuLuing  programs  for 
amdnuing  education. 


Because  numerous  alumnae 
volunteered  their  time  and  effort, 
the  March  phonathon  was  the  most 
successful  ever  in  increasing 
alumnae  giving.

Jean  Stewart  Staton  '46,  M.D.,  is 
president-elect  of  Emory  University's 
national  alumni  association. 

Elizabeth  Stevenson  '41  has  been 
named  Candler  Professor  of  American 
Studies  at  Emory  University.  These 
professorships  are  awarded  to  Emory 
faculty  members  for  excellence  in 
teaching,  scholarship,  and  service  to 
Emory.  She  is  the  only  professor 
without  graduate  degrees  to  become  a 
Candler  professor. 

Priscilla  Sheppard  Taylor  '53  was 
named  editor  of  the  Phi  Beta  Kappa 
quarterly  newsletter,  "The  Key 
Reporter." 

Alumnae  are  a  vital  part  of  foster- 
ing the  intellectual,  financial,  and 
spiritual  goals  of  the  College.  EXiring 
the  Alumnae  Leadership  Conference 
in  the  fall  of  1983,  some  one  hundred 
volunteers  of  the  Association  gathered 
at  the  College  to  share  ideas  and  to 
learn  how  to  better  prepare  themselves 
for  their  role  in  serving  the  institution. 

When  President  Ruth  Schmidt  met 
with  seventeen  of  the  seventy  alumnae 
clubs  throughout  the  United  States  this 
year,  several  alumnae  worked  diligently 
to  get  news  coverage  of  her  visit  to 
their  city.  This  coverage  helped  spread 
the  word  of  Agnes  Scott  College 
throughout  the  country. 

Alumnae  are  not  only  good  "PR 
ambassadors"  of  the  College,  but  they 
are  capable  admissions  representatives 
as  well.  Their  help  this  year  in 
admissions  benefitted  Agnes  Scott's 
enrollment.  A  number  of  students 
enrolled  as  a  result  of  twelve  alumnae 
clubs  entertaining  prospective  students. 
In  addition,  alumnae  representatives 
attended  ninety  college  programs  for 
high  schools  in  twenty  states  and  saw 
almost  eight  hundred  students.  Also, 
thirteen  alumnae  daughters  entered  the 
freshman  class  this  fell. 

The  ASC  Network  (Alumnae/Stu- 
dents/Careers) formed  by  the  Career 
Planning  Office  provided  a  resource 
poo\  of  150  alumnae  to  be  available  to 
help  students  learn  more  about  specific 
careers  and  gain  on-the-job  experience 
through  the  Shadow,  Extern,  and 
Intern  Programs.  Alumnae  also  shared 
their  career  knowledge  and  expertise  by 
participating  in  the  second  Career  Fair 
held  at  the  College  in  January. 


As  part  of  the  Continuing  Educa- 
tion Committee  Programs,  alumnae 
had  a  day  of  art  with  an  art  history 
lecture  during  lunch  on  campus,  and 
later,  a  guided  tour  of  the  new  High 
Museum  of  Art.  They  also  spent  a 
Saturday  with  Professor  of  Sociology 
Constance  Jones  discussing  the  book, 
Peace  ivith  Your  Parents  by  Harold  H. 
Bloomfield,  M.S.  with  Leonard  Felder, 
Ph.D.  Other  activities  included  a  two- 
evening  seminar  by  Dr.  C.  Benton 
Kline  on  "Theology  Since  1960: 
Change  and  Experience"  and  a  day- 
long seminar  last  spring  with  Dr.  Tom 
Hogan  on  "The  Computer,"  which 
offered  alumnae  hands-on  learning 
experience  in  the  College  Computing 
Center. 

Despite  a  downpour.  Alumnae 
Weekend  brought  six  hundred  former 
students  back  to  campus  last  April  to 
see  old  friends  and  to  learn  of  proposed 
plans  for  the  Centennial  Celebration. 
Outstanding  alumnae  and  classes  of 
special  achievement  were  recognized 
during  the  weekend,  and  more  than 
170  members  of  the  Fifty  Year  Club 
attended  a  reception  honoring  retiring 
administrators  and  a  special  dinner. 

For  three  weeks  in  June,  thirty-five 
alumnae  toured  the  historic  sites  and 
museums  in  France  as  they  travelled 
and  learned  about  French  culture  with 
Professor  of  French  Frances  Clark 
Calder  '51. 

The  continued  service  and  contri- 
butions of  alumnae  have  enriched 
the  College  in  recmiting,  providing 
career  opportunities  for  students,  offer- 
ing strong  leadership,  contributing 
money  to  the  College's  growth,  and 
caring  for  the  ongoing  success  of  Agnes 
Scott.  The  vital  support  from  alumnae 
is  the  key  to  the  College's  bright 
future.  With  your  help,  Agnes  Scott 
will  continue  in  the  fine  liberal  arts 
tradition  while  incorporating  inno- 
vative thoughts  and  moving  in  new 
directions. 

Our  year  of  introspection  has  given 
us  some  fresh  ideas  on  how  to  upgrade 
fecilities  and  create  an  even  more 
pleasant  environment  in  which  to 
work,  leam,  and  live.  This  next  year 
will  be  one  of  implementation  — 
carrying  out  ways  to  enhance  the 
Q)llege  as  we  approach  our  centennial 
year.D

To  our  readers: 

In  1984,  the  Office  of  Public 
Aftairs  began  producing  the 
Alumnae  Magazine.  Future 
issues  ot  the  magazine  will  be 
produced  by  a  newly  formed 
Office  ot  Publicatit)ns. 

After  the  first  issue  of  the 
magazine,  we  received  much 
verbal  feedback,  but  few 
written  comments.  We 
would  like  to  know  your 
response  to  the  magazine. 
Please  direct  your  letters  to: 
Editor,  Alumnae  Magazine, 
Office  of  Publications, 
Agnes  Scott  College, 
Decatur,  Ga.  30030. 

The  following  are  a  few 
comments  we  received  on 
the  spring  issue  of  the 
Alumnae  Ma^ti::inc':

Dear  editor:

M^  copy  arrii>ed  today  and  I'tt 
already  read  it  coi'er  to  coi^. 
The  uords  that  come  to  mind  t 
"sparkle"  and  "pizzaz"  —  not 
only  in  appearance,  but  also  in 
content. 

The  idea  of  the  alumruie 
college  has  me  excited  since  I 
never  tire  of  Dr.  Pepperdene. 
Besides,  being  back  on  the 
campus  IS  always  a  rejiaienaticn 
for  me. 

Again,  thanks  for  a  magazin 
of  which  we  can  be  proud.

■DITOR'S  NOTE:  Mary  Ben 
:rwin  '25,  a  volunteer  who  has 
«rked  in  the  alumnae  office  for 
ve  years,  contributed  this  letter  on 
Arginia  McKenzie's  retirement  to 
tie  Alumnae  Magazine.  See 
Virginia's  success  story  on  page  28. 


^ear  editor: 

t  ivas  a  good  day  in  1974  for 
\gnes  Scott  and  the  nadond 
Siumnae  Association  when 
Hrginia  Broxun  McKenzie  '47 
ecame  director  of  dumnae 
ffairs.  It  has  been  my  privilege 
rui  pleasure  to  work  and  play  in 
ie  alumnae  office  often  mring 
lese  10  years,  and  my  long 
riendship  with  Virginia  has 
eveloped  into  one  of  my  most 
measured  blessings.  I  am  saddened 
y  the  announcement  of  her 
Jtirement  in  June.  At  the  same 
me,  I  am  cheered  by  the  indelible 
'.gacy  of  her  charm,  expert 
ladership,  and  devoted  hydty  to 
he  dumrKie  association  and  her 
Ima  mater. 

Virginia  is  the  chatelaine  of  the 
dumnae  House,  aware  of  every 
'etaii  of  making  it  the  attractive 
nd  hospitable  College  guest 
ouse.  Her  years  as  homemaker, 


wife,  and  mother  of  an  active  and 
devoted  farruly  prepared  her  for 
these  demands. 

Active  participation  in  dumnae 
affdrs  has  increased  under  her 
leadership.  Alumnae  Weekend  is 
one  of  tfie  hig/iiig/its  of  the  College 
calendar.  Attendance  at  the 
dumnae  luncheon  has  increased 
beyond  the  walls  of  the  College 
dining  hall  into  the  amphitheatre. 
The  Fifty  Year  Club,  recognizing 
early  dumnae,  is  a  specid  feature 
of  the  weekend,  with  axtendance 
of  about  175  for  dinner  and 
recognition  of  outstanding  women 
in  their  respective  fields  of 
educaticm,  church,  professiond, 
and  community  service.  Virgmids 
vision  and  energy  have  made  this 
a  happily  anticipated  event. 

The  on-the-spot  role  of  liaison 
between  the  dumnae  and  the 
College  administration  has 
extended  to  oU  dumnae.  Under 
her  leadership,  locd  dumnae  clubs 
have  grown  from  15  to  70 
tfiroug/iout  tlie  country.  She  has 
visited  the  clubs  and  knows  each 
organization  as  a  branch  of  the 
parent  stem  and  knows  individud 
members  who  make  those 
branches  flourish.  Her  knowledge 
of  9, 500  Agnes  Scott  dumnae  as 
persond  friends  and  products  of 
the  dma  mater  is  one  of  her 
greatest  assets. 

To  everything  there  is  a  season 
and  a  time  to  every  purpose  under 
the  heaven,  a  time  to  laugh  and  a 
time  to  dance.  It  is  time  now, 
Virginia,  for  you  and  your 
husband  John,  to  lau^  and 
dance  with  your  happy  brood 
around  you.  We  shaR  be  rejoicing 
with  you  in  your  delayed  fun  and 
saying,  "Thanks, "  to  you  and 
your  family  for  having  shared  your 
time,  your  talents,  and  the 
treasury  of  your  love  with  us.

ON  THE  DAY  OF  HER  RETIRE- 
ment  celebration,  her  pupils,  their 
parents,  and  the  schtxil  staff 
released  hundreds  and  hundreds  ot 
balkxins  —  blue,  pink,  yellow,  orange  — 
into  the  sky  over  South  Florida. 

Like  notes  in  bottles,  but  more  beautiful 
tor  their  fragility,  the  balkx)ns  carried  a 
message  k>r  all  who  might  see  them.  "The 
Gcxd  Years,"  they  read. 

It  was  fun  and  also  a  philosophy. 

"The  Good  Years"  meant  the  10  years 
that  Joella  Craig  Gcxxi  '43  was  principal 
Coconut  Grove  Elementary  Schcwl,  a 
racially  and  ectinomically  halved  Miami 
schiwl,  with  310  pupils  and  25  teachers 
and  aides.  Gtxxi  officially  retired  July  1, 
1984,  at  age  61.  A  form  of  leukemia 
threatened  not  her  life,  but  her  health  and 
energy,  making  her  decide  it  best  to 
separate  herself  from  children,  their  sniffles 
and  their  activity. 

But  the  GcxxJ  years  will  be  remembered 
as  the  decade  Q)conut  Grove  Elementary 
SchcKil  changed. 

From  a  place  where  tcxi  many  teachers 
read  novels  or  rummaged  through  their 
purses  as  the  children  did  busy-work  at 
dieir  desks,  it  changed  to  a  place  where 
learning  was  primary,  with  two  programs 
for  advanced  children  —  a  virtually 
unheard  of  weakh  in  a  Dade  Qiunty 
Schtxjl. 

From  a  place  where  kids  knight  to  draw 
bkKid  and  other  children  ran  from  their 
classRxims  to  watch,  to  a  place  u'here  the 
pupils  texik  it  on  themselves  to  stop  fights. 

From  a  place  where  children  uimed 
their  back  on  the  principal  in  disrespect  as 
she  tried  ti>  counsel  them,  to  a  place 
where  they  bragged  aKxit  how  bad  things 
used  to  be,  to  stress  hiiw  tine  things  are 
niAv. 

"All  the  kids  had  —  what  do  you  call 
them?  —  those  switchblades,"  one  third- 
grader  confided  to  a  MitiTiii  Hcraki  repi.)rter 
last  July 

They  didn't,  of  course,  Joella  Cjixxj  says 
now.  "Rut  they  did  carry  othet  kinds  of

heads  of  thick  hair. " 

"I  surely  did  learn  a  lot,"  Good  adds. 
The  former  principal  is  a  master  of 
understatement,  a  PoUyanna  of  syntax. 
"You  want  to  diffuse:  you  don't  want  to 
inflame,"  she  says. 
Ask  her  why  she  worked 
so  hard  and  stayed 
on  year  after  year 
and  she  says 


simply,  "I  believe  it  is  my  job  to 
make  things  go  right." 

The  tall,  always  elegantly  suited  woman 
is  a  Hercules  when  it  comes  to  lifting  a 
heavy  burden  and  making  things  go  right. 

Throughout  her  years  at  the  school, 
Joella  Good  steadfastly  refused  to  paddle 
pupils  whatever  the  pressure,  the  anger,  or 
the  behavior  of  the  children  themselves. 
She  did,  however,  once  buy  a  paddle  and 
take  it  to  her  office. 

During  an  early  faculty  meeting,  a  male 
teacher  who  opposed  her  stood  and  asked 
her  how  many  kids  she  had  paddled  since 
she  arrived.  "I  thought,  'Oh,  Lord,  give 
me  the  words,'  "  the  Presbyterian  church 
elder  remembers.  "And  I  said,  'Every  one 
who  needed  it.'  " 

An  area  superintendent  —  her  bt)ss  — 
issued  the  same  challenge.  She  told  him 
flatly  that  as  long  as  it  was  a  principal's 
prerogative  to  decide  —  as  it  is  in  Dade 
County  Schools  —  corporal  punishment 
would  not  be  used  in  her  school. 

The  resolve  grew  out  of  a  tragic 
incident  in  the  Qiconut  Grove 
community  the  summer  before  Gotxi  tcxik 
over  as  principal.  She  tells  the  story  with 
typical  understatement. 

A  man  had  been  doused  with  gasoline 
and  burned  to  death  by  two  young  boys, 
Good  remembers. 

"1  read  into  that  that  they  were  defying 
authority  I  felt  children  had  to  learn  some 
alternatives  to  violence." 

Change  at  Coconut  Grove  Elementary 
came  down  to  those  easy  to  say,  but 
difificuk  to  achieve  values.  Alternatives. 
Respect.  Pride.  Tolerance. 

"Mainly  we  taught  people  to  respect 
each  other,"  Gocxd  says.  "We  had  to 
convince  people  that  we  were  trustworthy, 
reliable,  and  dependable.  As  principal,  I 
had  to  convince  people  that  I  was  more 
interested  in  children  than  in  being 
principal  .  .  .  that  1  didn't  need  power  for 
my  ego." 

Her  values  took  many  concrete  forms. 


always  emphasizing  the  gcxid,  those 
elements  worth  respect  and  pride. 

There  were  Soul  Fcxid  Days  and  Color 
Days  (when  children  wore  schcwl  colors  to 
class).  There  were  the  Good  Guys 
Gatherings  with  every  pun  intended  by 
the  counselor  who  created  them.  E\'ery  20 
days,  children  who  were  without  detention 
or  excessive  tardiness  —  the  good  guys  — 
could  go  to  the  auditorium  for  a  movie 
and  a  special  treat. 

"There  is  at  this  schexil,"  wrote  MLimi 
Ha-aki  reporter  Madeleine  Blais  in  her  July 
story,  "a  profound  understanding  of  the 
power  of  popcorn  and  ice  cream  and  pizza 
to  promote  gLX)d  behavior " 

The  mantle  of  Gotxl  was  cast  over  the 
faculty,  too.  As  vacancies  occurred,  the 
principal  replaced  tacuky  members  who 
did  not  ascribe  to  her  philosophy.  But 
since  turnover  was  slow,  changes  in 
attitude  were  necessary,  tc». 

There  was,  tor  example,  the  71  percent 
solution. 

One  of  the  first  years  Gcxxd  was  at 
Coconut  Grove  Elementary,  the  schcxil 
system  began  rating  schcxils.  A  school  was 
branded  deficient  if  70  percent  of  its 
students  did  not  pass  skills  tests. 

That  first  year.  Coconut  Grove  achieved 
71  percent,  and  Good  was  ecstatic. 

"I  went  out  to  the  florist  before  school, 
and  when  everyone  got  in  that  morning,

EDITOR'S  NOTE:  Michael  Pousner  is  an  Atlanta  writer  and  a  professor  at  Georgia  State  University  in  Atlanta.  Also  contributing  to  the  story,  Dr. 
William  Weber,  professor  of  economics,  Agnes  Scott  Gillege. 


IN  A  WORLD  IN  WHICH  STARVING  ETHIOPIANS 
die  before  television  cameras,  where  dictatorships  of  the 
left  and  right  stifle  billions  of  humans,  and  where  gross 
poverty  is  a  fact  of  life,  idealistic  liberal  arts  students,  must, 
It  times,  feel  impotent  —  battling  much  greater  forces  than 
:hemselves.  And  how  can  a  student  neglect  the  fact  that  the 
:apitalism  that  seems  to  foster  some  of  life's  inequities  is  the 
;ame  system  that  allows  him  or  her  to  attend  college? 

A  group  of  students  and  faculty  members,  including  some 
rem  Agnes  Scott  and  other  colleges  in  the  Southeast, 
discussed  these  dilemmas  recently  at  the  symposium  on 
Christian  Faith  and  Economic  Values  held  on  Hilton  Head 
sland.  The  symposium  is  sponsored,  organized,  funded,  and 
ed  by  the  men  of  the  First  Presbyterian  Church  of  Hilton 
-lead,  a  group  of  executives,  most  of  whom  are  retired. 

Students  and  faculty  members  first  heard  from  William  B. 
OValton,  retired  vice-chairman  of  the  board  and  co-founder  of 
holiday  Inns,  Inc.,  who  told  them  how  he  opposed  gambling 
3n  moral  grounds  and  fought  hard  in  the  corporate 
bureaucracy  against  Holiday  Inns'  opening  up  gambling 
;asinos.  When  that  effort  failed,  he  resigned. 

Of  course  this  option  is  often  available  to  those 
;onfronting  moral  decisions  in  the  corporate  world,  but  does 
:he  resignation  of  one  man,  even  such  a  highly  placed  man, 
Tiatter  when  a  corporation  like  Holiday  Inns  finds  the  lure  of 
;;ambling  irresistable?  No,  the  students  seemed  to  agree  in  a 
discussion  following  the  speech  that  practicalities  outweigh 
Tioral  imperatives  in  such  a  situation.  Indeed  the  executive's 
decision  can  be  compared  to  the  students  simply  giving  up. 

IN  ANOTHER  SITUATION  DISCUSSED  AT  THE 
conference,  what  does  a  highly  moral  executive  do  about 
his  or  her  corporation's  decision  to  close  a  plant  and 
:hrow  hundreds,  if  not  thousands,  out  of  work?  At  one 
extreme,  should  the  executive  insist  that  the  plant  remain 
Dpen  to  protect  those  jobs  even  if  it's  no  longer  economically 
/iable?  Or  should  he  or  she  resign?  Again,  the  only  realistic 
answer  seems  to  be  working  within  the  system  to  help  those 
aid  off —  and  working  just  as  hard  to  create  favorable 
situations  at  other  factories  so  those  people  will  not  be  laid 
off. 

At  least  the  executive  who  resigned  recognized  the 
problem  —  and  the  students  seemed  to  agree  that 
recognition- is  a  key  to  solving  the  problem.  In  the  upper 
middle-class  society  that  has  spawned  most  of  today's 
students,  it  would  be  easy  to  stick  one's  head  ostrich-like  in 
the  sand.  But  not  acknowledging  the  problem  doesn't  make  it 


go  away  —  as  America  found  out  when  blacks  rioted  in  cities 
in  the  1960s. 

THE  STUDENTS  ALSO  DISCUSSED  TWO 
questions  which  they  considered  before  the 
symposium. One  of  the  root  questions  for  our  society 
concerns  the  distribution  of  wealth.  Should  those  who  create 
and  accumulate  wealth  be  allowed  lo  keep  and  invest  their 
own  funds?  Or  should  government  take  a  large  share  of 
private  wealth  through  taxation  and  reallocate  it  to 
accomplish  social  goals  through  government  spending? 

The  consensus  growing  out  of  the  students'  discussion  was 
that  everyone  should  be  given  an  equal  chance  in  life  from 
birth.  That  would  be  the  only  way  to  alleviate  the  problem  of 
inequality  in  the  United  States  and  the  world.  The  trouble 
with  this  redistribution  of  wealth  —  as  those  who 
demonstrated  on  college  campuses  in  the  late  1960s  found  out 
—  is  that  it's  not  going  to  come  about  in  the  foreseeable 
future.  Our  system  will  allow  all  kinds  of  dynamic  change, 
hut  not  this  one. 

But,  if  our  system  is  not  going  to  lend  itself  to  societal 
upheaval,  then  what  can  we  do?  As  it  turns  out  the  answer  is 
"many  things"  because  we  all  have  more  power  than  we 
think.  Not  all  the  activism  of  the  late  1960s  was  wasted  for 
instance.  After  all,  students  protested  vociferously  in  such 
great  numbers  that  they  helped  fuel  American  discontent 
against  the  war  in  Vietnam.  This  is  not  saying  that  taking 
one's  feelings  to  the  street  automatically  solves  anything.  But 
it's  an  available  option. 

A  more  realistic  option  is  first  deciding  what  cause  the 
student  wants  to  embrace  —  whether  it  is  the  anti-Apartheid 
movement,  the  push  for  worldwide  arms  control,  or  for  an 
ethical  American  policy  in  Central  America.  Liberal  arts 
students  are  particularly  well-placed  to  identify  this  problem 
with  the  exposure  to  society  given  them  by  their  English, 
political  science,  history,  and  economics  courses. 

As  Agnes  Scott  economics  professor  Dr.  William  Weber, 
who  attended  the  Hilton  Head  conference,  puts  it,  "A  liberal 
arts  student  is  best  equipped  to  see  problems  and  work  to 
solve  them.  Engineering  students  might  look  at  the  problem 
in  the  same  ways  at  all  times  while  liberal  arts  students  can 
ponder  different  solutions." 

Having  noted  the  particular  problem,  the  student  must 
work  hard  at  the  campus  level  to  build  a  consensus  toward 
solving  it.  This  may  mean  on  the  one  hand  trying  to  get  class 
discussions  centered  around  the  issue  and,  on  the  other

THEY  ARE  TWO  WORDS 
which,  separately,  will  never 
cause  anyone  to  blink  but 
together  raise  as  many  fears  and 
concerns  as  any  other  issue  in  our 
lifetime:  Genetic  Engineering.  To 
some,  the  phenomenon  holds  out 
hopes  for  bettering  humans'  lot  on  this 
planet.  For  others,  though,  it  raises  the 
chimera  of  humans  tampering  with  the 
very  essence  of  life  —  with  incalculable 
dangers  including  widespread  infection 
and  the  risk  of  the  process  falling  into 
sociopathic  hands. 

Now  a  group  of  Agnes  Scott 
freshmen  honor  students  are  studying 
the  ethical  and  moral  implications  of 
genetic  engineering  from  seven 
professors.  It's  an  interdisciplinary

course  which  has  allowed  students  to 
understand  better  the  science  of 
genetic  engineering,  discuss  its 
potential  ramifications,  and  reach 
differing  conclusions  on  the  extent  to 
which  it  should  be  used;  in  other 
words,  how  much  power  should  humans 
have  over  life  itself? 

The  course  comes  at  a  particularly 
pivotal  time  in  the  genetic  engineering 
controversy.  Last  year,  author  and 
lecturer  Jeremy  Rifkin,  through  a 
federal  lawsuit,  successfully  kept  a 
group  of  California  scientists  from 
conducting  an  experiment  in  genetic 
engineering.  Now  the  scientists  are 
once  again  experimenting  with  altering 
a  bacterium  to  raise  the  frost  resistance 
of  plants  on  which  it  is  sprayed.  So  the

particular  issue  is  environmental 
impact,  and  scientists  themselves  — 
many  of  whom  have  waged  battle  after 
battle  for  the  right  to  investigate  —  are 
divided  on  all  important  questions. 
Will  releasing  this  new  organism  into 
the  atmosphere  cause  unforeseen 
damage?  Will  it  lead  to  the  destruction 
of  vital  elements  in  our  environment? 

At  first,  these  questions  seem  no 
different  from  the  usual  environmental 
concerns  about  PCBs  and  other 

CI  Will  releasing 
♦  this  organism 
into  the  atmosphere 
cause  unforeseen 
damage? 

chemical  pollutants,  a  concern  perhaps 
amplified  by  the  Bhopal  disaster  in 
India.  But  there  is  one  big  difference 
between  chemical  and  biological 
hazards.  The  latter,  if  successfully 
adapted,  can  multiply  —  sometimes  at 
a  truly  mind-boggling  rate.  No  wonder 
that  these  potentially  hazardous 
consequences  are  on  an  entirely 
different  plane  from  those  of  most 
chemical  pollutants.  Once  successful, 
the  biological  hazard  could  grow  almost 
uncontrollably. 

The  proponents  of  experimentation 
characteristically  minimize  the 
probability  of  a  disaster  and  urge 
society  to  weigh  the  small  chances  of 
something  going  wrong  against  the 
good  consequences  of  a  successful 
experiment.  Already,  for  instance, 
scientists  have  developed  insulin  for 
diabetics  in  a  laboratory  instead  of 
extracting  it  from  horses.  Insulin 
produced  in  the  lab  is  less  expensive 
and  does  not  result  in  complications, 
such  as  allergic  reactions,  that  insulin 
from  horses  can  cause. 

Opponents  point  to  the  little  that  is 
known  about  the  consequences  of  the 
experiment  and  its  probabilities;  they 
offset  the  promised  good  against  the 
possibility  —  however  improbable  —  of 
a  new  plague  with  the  consequences  of 
a  thousand  Bhopals. 

What  is  intriguing  —  and  a  little 
frightening  —  to  an  observer  is  that 
frequently  neither  side  has  firm 
evidence  for  its  claims.  So  both  sides 
deal  in  probabilities  for  which  there  is 
very  little  data.  All  they  agree  on  is 
that  knowing  the  way  genes  are  put 
together  allowed  scientists  to  change 
them  to  achieve  different  effects  in 
living  organisms.  And  most 
experiments  involve  bacterium,  in 


8    SPRING  1985 


which  DNA  can  be  altered  with 
relative  ease.  Each  group  takes  its 
minimal  information  and  projects  an 
outcome  amazingly  consistent  with  its 
own  scientific  ambitions  and  projects. 
Where  data  is  scarce,  speculation 
abounds. 

And  what  will  happen  when  humans 
begin  to  think  about  altering  the  shape 
or  person  of  the  human  —  an 
inevitable  step  that  was  heralded  by 
Crick's  and  Watson's  discovery  of  the 
structure  ot  DNA.  Then  what  counts 
as  knowledge  will  be  up  for  grabs.  Such 
issues  are  bewildering  in  their 
complexity  and  intriguing  in  their 
promise.  Clearly,  genetic  engineering 
raises  questions  that  scientists  cannot 
answer  completely  at  the  moment. 

Therefore,  it  seems  apt  that  the 
Agnes  Scott  honors  seminar,  funded 
by  a  faculty  development  grant,  is 
interdisciplinary.  To  do  justice  to  such 
deep  issues,  students  would  have  to 
study  the  biology  of  genetic 
engineering,  the  sociological  and 
psychological  background  of  the 
controversy,  and  the  philosophical  and 
literary  dimensions  of  the  controversy. 

After  an  introduction  discussing  the 
seminar's  goals,  it  began  its  long  march 
through  history,  philosophy,  and 
literature  —  a  long  march  that  would 
finally  return  to  the  present.  The 
seminar's  fundamental  thesis  is  that  the 
contemporary  controversies 
surrounding  genetic  engineering  have 
roots  in  that  Western  tradition  of 
which  the  humanities  are  the  guardian. 
Understanding  the  contemporary 
controversies  results  from 
understanding  their  background. 

This  last  point  can  be  illustrated 
through  the  writings  ot  one  of  the 
protagonists  in  the  genetic  engineering 
drama.  In  arguing  that  this 
phenomenon  is  the  ultimate  evil 
of  the  technological  age,  Jeremy  Ritlcin 
claims  that  humankind  has  adopted  the 
wrong  attitude  towards  nature  — 
humans  should  cooperate  with  the  rest 
of  nature  rather  than  exploit  it. 

But  in  making  such  arguments, 
Rifkin  is  unconsciously  using  concepts 
and  invoking  attitudes  which  come 
from  different  eras.  Evaluating  the 
force  of  his  objection  depends  upon 
knowing,  among  other  things,  how 
society's  contemporary  notion  of  nature 
developed  and  how  other  ages 
understood  the  relationship  between 
humanity  and  nature. 

So  the  seminar  would  begin  with 
ancient  Greeks  and  their  notions  of  the 
universe  and  of  nature  and  end  up  with 
Darwin  —  a  vast  and  endlessly

fascinating  journey.  Finally,  the  class 
would  arrive  back  at  the  contemporary 
controversies,  look  at  them  again  and 
see  what  the  wisdom  of  those  centuries 
can  offer  to  comprehending  society's 
present  problems. 

Naturally,  such  a  procedure  is  itself 
controversial.  For  instance,  some  feel 

CI  Will  freshmen 
♦  have  the  ability

intellectually 
perilous  activities? 

that,  even  if  discourse  between 
disciplines  is  possible,  freshmen  cannot 
possibly  have  the  sophistication  to 
engage  in  such  intellectually  perilous 
activities.  First  let  them  learn  biology, 
philosophy,  psychology,  sociology,  and 
literature,  then  let  them  try  to  talk 
across  disciplinary  lines. 

There  is  no  better  answer  to  these 
arguments  than  the  experience  —  here 
and  elsewhere  —  of  those  who  have 
tried.  The  care  with  which  the 
questions  are  put,  the  materials 
organized,  and  the  students'  thinking 
and  writing  guided  are  the  real 
conditions  for  success. 

And  what  about  the  execution  of  the 
faculty's  grandiose  plan?  The  syllabus  of 
'  the  course  has  proven  to  be  remarkably 
durable;  the  intellectual  validity  of 
their  approach  has  time  and  again  been 
established.  They  have  discovered 
much  that  illuminates  the  contemporary 
controversies,  and  this  has  led  to  high 
ambitions. 

And  what  are  those  aspirations? 
Students  must  have  the  experience 
of  tackling  important  and  difficult 
problems  of  public  policy,  analyzing 
those  problems,  and  producing 
solutions.  No  longer  can  they  be  mere 
observers;  they  must  use  the  best 
of  their  analytic  abilities  and 
^,  humanistically  tempered  understanding. 
^i  If  errors  in  this  regard  must  be  made,  it 
is  better  to  err  on  the  side  of 
enthusiasm  for  these  goals.  And  the 
subject  of  genetic  engineering  is 
important  enough  to  call  on  all  their 
energy  and  intellectual  talent.  This  is 
the  sort  of  experience  that  the 
professors  want  for  their  seminar.       D

~T^  r.  Margaret  W.  Pepperdene,  the  Ellen  Douglass  Leyhum 
JLJ  Professor  of  English  and  chairperson  of  the  English 
department  from  1967  to  1984,  retires  this  year  after  29  years  at 
Agnes  Scott. 
Before  coming  here  she  held  a  tenured  position  on  the  English 


tiiculty  of  Miami  University  in  Oxford, 
Ohio,  where,  she  says,  "I  had  a  96-srudent 
freshman  class  which  1  rauyht  i)n 
rele\'ision.  Student  assistants  graded  papers 
and  1  JLLst  lectured  into  a  camera." 

She  was  thinking  ot  lea\'inK  what 
seemed  to  het  a  sterile  profession  when  IV. 
Walter  Clyde  Curry,  her  major  professor  at 
Vanderbilt  University,  reccimmended  her 
for  a  position  at  Agnes  Scott.  When  she 
inter\'iewed  and  met  ptofessors  George  P. 
Hayes,  Ellen  l\)uglass  Leyhum,  and  other 
members  of  the  faculty,  she  found 
"teachers  who  were  students.  Teachers," 
she  remembers,  "who  quietly  and 
completely  ga\'e  themselves  to  learning 
and  to  teaching." 

Attracted  by  this  "whole  new  kind  of 
academic  world,"  Dr.  Pepperdene  joined 
the  Agnes  Scott  faculty  in  the  fall  of  1956. 

No  description  of  L)r.  Pepperdene  in 
the  classroom  can  capture  the  play 
of  It.  Her  lectures  are  frequently 
funny,  but  her  ready  laugh  only  enhances 
her  serious  purpose  as  she  leads  her 
students  to  ask  hard  questi(.)ns  of  the  text. 
For  Th;  CMnierhiry  Tciks  class  she  still 
types  her  lectures  double-spaced  on  8/:  x 
11  paper  and  delivers  them  from  behind 
her  fn'orite  lectern.  E<ich  lecture  is  a  fully 
developed,  elegantly  stRictured  essay  that 
illuminates  the  poetry  fot  her  students. 
With  every  class  she  makes  another 
pilgrimage  because  she  believes  that  with 
each  reading  the  poetry  speaks  new  and 
fresh  and  true.  She  is  sensitive  to  the 
class'  moixl  and  to  shifts  in  her  students'

attitudes.  When  she  senses  puzzlement, 
she  quickly  mo\'es  from  behind  the  lectern 
to  perch  on  the  edge  of  her  desk,  one  ttxit 
propped  on  the  Kittom  Ring  of  a  student's 
desk. 

he  listens  to  het  students'  comments 
I  and  responds  to  their  questions.  In 
let  freshman  class  she  lecaires  less 
often  and  engages  in  a  free  gi\'e-and-take 
situation,  gently  corrects  mistakes,  rewards 
insight  with  prai.se,  and  frequently  answers 
the  L|Liestions  that  shoLild  ha\'e  been  asked 
as  vwll  as  the  ones  that  were.  She  teaches 
her  students  from  the  wealth  cif  her  study, 
but  she  is  also  ready  to  learn  what  her 
students  think  and  to  test  their  reading 
against  the  text. 

Dr.  Pepperdene  honors  her  students  by 
her  painstaking  preparation  for  each  class 
—  preparation  earned  by  long  evenings  in 
her  study  at  home  —  and  by  her  careful 
consideration  of  their  questions  or 
statements.  Her  classroom  is  marked  by 
the  respect  and  affection  and  enthusiasm 
for  the  poetry  that  teacher  and  students 
alike  enjoy. 

She  came  with  impressi\-e  credentials. 
She  earned  her  undergraduate  degree  from 
Liuisiana  State  University,  where  Robert 
Penn  Warren  taught  her  Shakespeare.  In 
World  War  11,  she  serx'ed  in  the  U.S. 
Na\7  as  a  communications  officer  ot  the 
8th  Naval  District  in  New  Orleans. 

After  the  war,  she  received  the  doctoral 
degree  in  English  at  Vinderbik  Univ'ersity. 
In  1950,  she  received  a  Fulbright 
Fellowship  to  conduct  research  tor  her

Belfast,  Northern  Ireland.  The  next  \'ear 
she  recei\'ed  a  Ft)rd  Foundation  Graduate 
Fellowship  to  teach  at  Vanderhilt.  She 
joined  the  faculty  of  Miami  University  as 
an  instructor  in  English  in  1952,  and  two 
years  later  she  was  granted  tenure  and 
promotion  to  assistant  professor. 

In  1954  the  Diihlin  Institute  for 
Advanced  Studies  named  her  a  fellow  and 
the  American  Associatit)n  of  Uni\'ersity 
Women  granted  her  a  fellowship  to 
research  Celtic  smdies  in  Dublin.  Then, 
in  1956,  Dr.  Pepperdene  received  the 
award  ccweted  hy  established  artists  and 
scholars  alike:  the  John  Simon 
Guggenheim  Fellowship  to  support  her 
smdies  in  Old  English  literature.

J  Agnes  Scott,  alumnae  secretary  Ann 
^^  Worthy  Johnsi)n  wR)te  in  the 
Alumnae  Qmirttrrly  that  Pepperdene  had 
"made  a  special  place  for  herself  as  a 
teacher. " 

Dr.  Pepperdene  wrote  in  the  same  issue 
that  the  students  at  Agnes  Scott  "possess 
an  intellecaral  energy,  an  eagerness  to 
learn,  and  a  delight  in  the  learning 
process."  This  mutual  regard  between  Dr. 
Pepperdene  and  her  students  has 
continued. 

Throughout  her  tenure  at  Agnes  Scott, 
Dr.  Pepperdene  has  taught  freshman 
English,  a  section  of  the  sophomore  course 
in  English  literature,  Chaucer's  The 
Ccmierhiiry  Tales,  his  Truibis  aivl  Criseyde 
and  minor  poems,  and  Old  English.  The 
Canterbury  Tales  course  consistently  enrolls 
not  only  English  majors  but  students  from 
disciplines  as  diverse  as  mathematics, 
physics,  French,  psychology,  theatre,  and 
chemistry. 

Whenever  students  needed  a  course  but 
nci  instructor  was  available,  C>r. 
Pepperdene  often  taught  it.  She  has  also 
taught  numerous  students  in  special  smdies 
courses  and  has  directed  independent 
smdies  for  50  or  more  English  majors  not 
only  in  Old  English,  Chaucet,  and  the 
medieval  romance,  but  also  in  Thomas 
Hardy,  Gerard  Manley  Hopkins,  James 
Joyce,  T.S.  Eliot,  Flannery  O'Connor, 
Richard  Wilbur,  and  even  Dante. 

Rs  chairperson  of  the  English 
department.  Dr.  Pepperdene's 
primary  concern  remained  with 
the  smdents,  and  she  inx'olved  them  in 
activities  sponsored  by  the  department.  In 
1972,  she  planned  and  directed  the 
quartercentenary  celebration  of  the  birth 
of  John  Donne,  inviting  eminent  scholars 
from  all  over  the  country  She  edited  the 
presentations  into  the  book  That  SiStik 
Wreath. 

The  same  year  she  organized  the  first 
English  department  Writers'  Festival,  in 


which  May  Sarton,  then  a  visiting 
professor  at  Agnes  Scott;  Michael  Mott,  ' 
recently  the  author  of  The  Sevei\  Miiuntains 
of  Tkrmas  Merum;  and  Marion 
Montgomery,  writer- in-residence  at  the 
University  of  Georgia;  were  participants. 
The  Writers'  Festival  became  an  annual 
event,  bringing  Donald  Davie,  Guy 
Davenport,  Eudora  Welty,  Reynolds  Price, 
James  Merrill,  Richard  Wilbur,  Josephine 
Jacobsen,  and  numertius  others  to  campus. 

On  all  these  occasions.  Dr.  Pepperdene 
arranged  breakfasts  or  lunches  with 
smdents,  or  receptions  or  parties  for  Agnes 
Scott  smdents  to  have  every  chance  to 
spend  time  with  the  writers. 

Dr.  Pepperdene's  contributions  to  the 
intellecmal  life  of  her  smdents  go  beyond 
the  classroom  and  the  guest  lecturers. 
Smdents  have  in\'ited  her  many  times  to 
speak  to  prospective  smdents,  incoming 
freshmen  at  convocation,  senior 
investimre,  sophomore  parents'  weekend, 
and  numerous  other  occasions.  Last 
summer  she  was  one  of  three  professors 
asked  to  teach  at  the  inaugural  Agnes 
Scott  Alumnae  College. 

She  has  also  addressed  many  colleges, 
uni\'ersities,  and  educational  groups  on 
literamre  and  on  the  \'alues  of  liberal  and 
humane  learning.  Last  spring  she  was  the 
keynote  speaker  at  the  symposium 
sponsored  by  Phi  Beta  Kappa  and  the 
Mississippi  Council  tor  the  Humanities  at 
Mississippi  State  University  for  Women  on 
"1984:  The  Human  Imperative  — 
Technolo,gy  and  the  Humanities  in 
Perspective." 

This  academic  year.  Dr.  Pepperdene 
has  come  full  circle.  Ha\-ing 
resigned  as  department  chairperson, 
she  is  back  where  her  long  teaching  life  at 
Agnes  Scott  began  —  in  the  classroom 
with  her  smdents.  Chaucer's  description  of 
the  clerk  in  the  general  prologue  of  The 
Canterhiry  Tales  aptly  describes  Dr. 
Pepperdene  —  "gladly  wolde  he  leme  and 
gladly  teche." 

Through  all  the  poetry  and  stories  she 
has  taught,  she  has  touched  the  place 
where  knowledge,  belief  and  being  do  not 
separate.  Her  smdents  can  best  testify  to 
what  their  prcifessor  once  wTOte: 

''Knowledge  that  possesses 
the  heart  as  well  as  the  head 
pervades  the  entire  being. "

ITH  THESE  WORDS 
from  Athol  Fugard's  The 
Road  U)  Mecca,  a  TO-year-old 
artist  and  visitmary  named  Miss 
Helen  summons  her  ministers 


of  light  in  a  dramatically 
colored  rcxim  of  mirrors  and 
geometric  patterns. 

Miss  Helen,  the  most  recent 
of  playwright  Fugard's 
fascinating  women,  draws  from 
the  life  and  work  of  the  late 
Helen  Niemand  in  New 
Bethesda,  South  Africa,  hut 
Fugard  adds,  "Miss  Helen  keeps 
company  with  Emily 
Dickinson." 

Solitary  artists  and  unusual 
women  —  Fugard  has  been 
drawn  to  them  during  his 
distinguished  career  as  actor, 
director,  and  playwright.  Like 
his  mentors  Albert  Camus  and 
Samuel  Beckett,  Fugard 
portrays  men  and  women  as 
strangers  or  outcasts  whose 
hapless  existence  becomes 
ekxquent  through  the  stories

A  portrait  gallery  of 
iincimventional  women  —  th 
is  what  Atht>l  Fugard  has 
created  in  the  last  25  yeare. 
This  playwright  revels  in 
portraying  credible,  voluble, 
three-dimensional  women. 
Fugard  claims  to  be  in  awe  of 
female  friendships:  "Put  two 
women  together  in  a 
meaningful  relationship  and 
.  .  .  you  pass  tR)m  chemistry 
into  alchemy  .  .  .  into  an  are 
of  the  mysterious,  the 
unpredictable."  Alchemy,  the 
transmuting  of  base  metal  int 
gold,  may  indeed  be  the  most 


appropriate  metaphor  for  wha 
Fugard  has  done  with  his 
women:  tantalizing  and 
mysterious,  they  testify  to  the 
imaginative  powers  of  a  Soiitf 
African  playwright  with  whi>; 
images  all  women  can  identif 
Fugard's  women  range  in  a| 
from  barely  20  to  70,  in  ethn 
background  from  African  and 
Afrikaner  to  Greek  and 
English.  Tw)  are  prostinites,

Milly,  the  kindhearted 
andlady  in  People  Are  Living 
There,  is  Fugard's  first 
;ompletely  rounded  female 
;haracter.  Jilted  by  her  German 
odger  after  a  10-year  affair  on 
he  eve  of  her  fiftieth  birthday, 
I  day  spent  entirely  in  her 
Iressing  gown,  Milly  cajoles 
wo  reluctant  boarders  to

lecomes  an  existentialist  anti- 
;omedy,  with  Milly  at  the  edge 
)f  desperation  about  life,  love, 
md  death,  continually  asking  is 
his  "all  I  get?" 

She  refuses  to  accept  her 
deprivation:  "The  agreement

OVell,  it  isn't.  I've  been

After  Milly,  Fugard  turned  to 
a  younger,  poor-white 
Afrikaner  woman,  Hester 
Smit,  34,  who  left  her  Port 
Elizabeth  home  at  22  for  life  in 
Johannesburg's  back  streets.  In 
Hello  and  Goodbye  (1965),  she 
has  a  traumatic  reunion  with 


her  brother  Johnny,  who  nursed

during  Hester's  absence.  HeUo

—  there  she  is  waiting,  here 
she  is  going,  and  somebody's

God.  It's  me."  Fugard  sees 
Hester  as  demonstrating  the 
"courageous  pessimism"  to 
knew  herself  that  Camus 
advocates. 

Hello  and  Goodbye  led  to 
Boesman  and  Lena  (1969). 
Fugard's  Lena  is  a  mixed-breed 
woman  who  incarnates  the  will 


to  live.  Destitute,  barren  (all 
children  stillborn  except  the 
one  who  ^ 
lived  only  six 

months),  and  battered  by  her 


...*s^-;-"A.«r 


'^>i-*  ,  -V 


lifelong  companion  Riesman, 
Lena  still  dances  and  sinys  in 
the  mudflats  where  she  spends 
one  cold  evening  under  the 
stars,  a  female  equivalent  of 
Beckett's  tramps.  She  takes 
comfort  that  her  existence  has 
been  ackntwledged  by  two 
living  creatures  —  a  dog  and 
an  old  Atrikan  who  dies  that 
night  by  her  fire. 

Emasculated  by  his  scxiiety, 
Ek)esman  can  relate  to  no  one, 
and  when  Lena  challenges 
him,  he  wants  to  kill  her.  She, 
however,  has  the  last  word  in 
their  ongoing  battle  of  wills: 


"I'm  alive,  Boesman.  There's 
daylights  left  in  me.  You  still 
got  a  chance.  Don't  lose  it. 
Next  time  you  want  to  kill  me, 
do  it.  Really  do  it.  When  you 
hit,  hit  those  lights  out.  Don't 
be  ttx)  late.  L\i  it  yourself" 

Fugard  told  Mel  Gussow  of 
The  Neiv  Yirrk  Times  that  he 
considers  B(.ie5nwn  and  Lerui  "an 
examination  of  a  relationship 
between  a  man  and  a  woman 
in  which  the  man  is  a  bully 
and  a  chauvinist.  ...  1  think 
my  wife  [Sheila  Meinngj  has 
been  on  the  receiving  end  of  a 
lot  of  that  sort  of  greed  and 


selfishness.  We've  got  past  that. 
I'm  a  feminist  now  —  and  the 
play  is  dedicated  to  Sheila" 
(New  Yorker,  Dec.  20,  1982, 
Page  70). 

In  1972  Fugard  created  his 
first  white  professional  woman, 
a  thirtyish,  spinster  libranan 
named  Fneda  Joubert.  She  falls 
in  love  with  a  black  high 
schixil  pnncipal,  Errol 
Philander  —  a  criminal  oflense 
under  South  African  law.  The 
play,  StuitTTumts  after  an  Arrest 
under  the  Imnurrcdity  Act, 
lyrically  rectiunts  their 
romance,  which  is  ciimplicated 


not  only  by  law,  but  also  by 
morality  because  Errol  is 
married  and  has  a  family.  It 
also  graphically  depicts  the 
horror  of  their  arrest. 

Of  all  Fugard's  women, 
Frieda  comes  closest  to 
dramatizing  the  tomients  tif 
love  and  guilt.  Before  the  arresi 
she  had  ttild  Errol;  "Go  home 
.  .  .  and  look  after  your  family 
....  If  you  haven't  got  the 
courage  to  say  No  ...  to 
anyKxiy  ...  me  or  her  .  .  . 
I'll  do  it  for  you.  Go  home." 
Aften\-ard  she  laments,  "I  am 
here.  You  are  not  here  ....

LF  TOM  SAWYER  HAD  A  FEMALE 
double,  It  would  be  Mildred  Jennings, 
ew  from  Jennings'  '28  college  days 
would  believe  that  this  woman  who  spent 
much  of  her  college  lite  "campused"  on 
weekends,  later  owned  and  operated  a 
nursing  home  and  adopted  twt)  children  as 
a  single  parent  in  her  titties. 

"I  never  meant  to  break  any  rules,"  she 
says,  raising  her  eyebrows,  "it  jast  seemed 
to  happen  sometimes." 

Her  mischievous  behavior  ninged  from 
stacking  and  glueing  gentlemen  suitors' 
hats  together  as  they  waited  tor  their  dates 
in  the  domi  lobby,  to  ct)ercing  another 
student  to  join  her  in  ha\'ing  wisdom  teeth 
extracted  to  avoid  their  taking  an  exam. 
(Mildred  paid  for  the  latter  trick  when  the 
dentist  accidentally  briike  her  jav\'Kine.  As 
a  result,  she  developed  an  infection  which 
caiLsed  her  to  drop  out  t)t  schtx)l  for  awhile.) 

Recalling  some  of  her  college 
expenences,  Mildred  said  that  her  respect 
tor  people  and  her  positive  attimde  akuit 
life  —  which  have  carried  her  through  her 
life's  work  with  the  elderly,  orphans,  and 
disabled  \'eterans  —  came  from  the  years 
she  spent  at  Agnes  Scott.  The  humorous, 


quick-witted  alumna  has  earned  a 
reputation  tor  hard  work  and  ingenuity  in

far  cry  from  her  adventures  at  Agnes  Scott, 
where  she  faced  Dean  Nannette  Hopkins 
regularly  to  explain  her  latest  prank. 

Mildred's  relationship  with  l\*an  Hopkins 
began  when  she  amved  at  Agnes  Scott 
from  Augusta,  Ga.,  with  a  note  to  the  dean 
from  Mildred's  physician  father.  On 
prescription  paper,  her  father  wrote: 
"Mildred  has  my  pemiission  to  do  anything 
she  wants. " 

That  might  have  been  all  right  with 
Mildred's  father,  but  I\'an  Hopkins  had 
other  ideas.  Not  that  Mildred  and  the  dean 
had  a  bad  relationship.  O^nte  the  contrary, 
according  to  Mildred. 

One  weekend,  when  Mildred  and  three 
other  students  were  campused,  they  asked 


TElO 

Ella  Carey,  a  Gnllege  employee  who  was  a 
favorite  among  students,  to  gi\-e  them  a  big 
tin  of  apple  jelly  With  jelly  in  hand,  the 
pranksters  prcKeeded  to  sneak  into  each 
faculty  house  and  smear  the  sticky  substanc 
over  the  toilet  seats. 

The  next  Mcmday,  the  foursome  were 
sumnuined  into  the  dean's  office,  one  at  a 
time.  Mildred  was  the  last  to  face  the  dean 
who  by  that  time,  had  determined  all  to  ht

The  pain  will  come  ....  All

Frieda  is  older  than  Juliet,

she  is  the  essence  of  the  "all  for 
love"  and  "the  world  well  lost" 
which  defines  these 
Shakespearean  heroines;  she  is, 
in  short,  a  latter-day  romantic 
trapped  in  a  system  which 
denies  her  the  personal  right  to 


love. 

With  The  Road  to  Mecca 
(1984)  Fugard  pierfected  his 
earlier  explorations  of  female 
psychology.  Elsa  Barlow,  the 
schcxilteacher,  and  Helen 
Niemand,  the  sculptress,  have 
a  friendship  bom  of  mutual 
admiration  and  need.  From 
Elsa's  arrival  after  a  grueling 
800-mile  car  trip  in  response  to 
a  suicidal  letter  from  Helen, 
the  play  unfolds  the  disciple- 
master,  pupil-mentor 
relationship  between  the  two 
women.  Edgy,  querulous,  and 
anguished,  Elsa  questions 


Helen,  and  a  portrait  of  the 
isolated  artist  emerges  which 
transcends  gender  differences. 
Helen  both  exults  in  and  suffers 
from  the  consequences  of  her 
creativity  —  a  garden  full  of 
cement  camels,  wise  men, 
mythological  animals,  and 
Easter  Island  goddesses  and  a 
house  designed  to  resemble  the 
interior  of  Mecca. 

At  the  end  of  the  play, 
when  Helen  admits  that  she 
can  go  no  further  on  the  road 
to  her  vision,  that  she  must 
leam  to  live  with  the  candles 
blown  out  —  "and  all  that 


means"  —  melodrama  gives 
way  to  humor  as  Elsa  produces 
some  Valium  pills  as  a  fitting 
accompaniment  to  a  p(-)t  of  tea. 
Sublimely  ignorant  of  what 
they  are,  Helen  calls  them 
"artificial  sweeteners."  Elsa 
laughs  loudly  and  agrees  that 
yes,  that's  what  they  are.  As 
the  lights  come  down,  the 
tableau  is  a  joyful  Elsa  ready  to 
"leap"  trustingly  into  Helen's 
arms  .  .  .  And  the  airtam  folk.  D

through  the  back  of  her  garage  because  she 
forgot  to  hit  the  brakes. ) 

"It  seems  for  a  while  1  spent  more  time 
:eaching  people  to  drive  a  car  than  anything 
dse,"  Mildred  recalls. 

In  class,  she  was  often  a  cut-up,  and  one 
3f  her  remarks  got  her  thrown  out  of  class. 
But  professors  had  their  fun  with  Mildred, 
:oo. 

On  a  Bible  test  which  asked  the  names  of 
:he  kings  of  Israel,  Mildred  answered,  "Onf 
:he  Lord  knows,"  and  turned  in  the  test. 
Bible  professor  Alma  Sydenstricker  graded 
Vlildred's  paper  promptly:  "The  Lord  gets  an 
A,'  you  get  an  T.'  " 

The  administration  and  faculty 


always  felt  Mildred  and  her  friends  were 
worth  watching,  Mildred  admits,  "But  they 
always  made  you  feel  there  was  something 
fine  about  you. " 

This  respect  and  love  for  pieople  that  she 
experienced  at  Agnes  Scott  carried  her 
through  the  years  as  she  completed  her 
graduate  degrees  in  social  work,  hospital 
administration,  and  health  education. 

Mildred  taught  high  schixtl  for  nine  years 
and  then  went  to  work  for  the  Georgia 
Welfare  Department,  placing  orphans  in 
homes  during  the  Depression  in  a  pexir, 
mral  county  She  realized  that  if  she  were  to 
do  well  in  siKial  work,  she  needed  propier 
qualifications,  s<)  she  returned  to  school  for 
a  master's  degree  in  social  work. 

Mildred's  next  job  was 
director  of  social 


work  at  the  Children's  Memorial  Hospital  in 
Chicago  for  12  years.  Then  she  rekxated  to 
Augusta  to  direct  s(.x;ial  work  services  at  the 
VeterarLS  Administration  Htispital  where  she 
placed  disabled  veterans  in  the  community. 

She  always  set  a  goal  in  each  of  her  jobs, 
worked  hard  to  attain  the  goal,  and  once  it 
was  met,  pursued  another  challenge. 

Her  rw(.)  greatest  challenges  met  with  the 
greatest  obstacles  —  adopting  two  young 
girls  in  the  early  1960s  and  purchasing  a 
nursing  home  in  1970.  She  had  no  money 
to  buy  the  home  and  adt)pting  children  as  a 
single  parent  was  virtually  impossible.  But 
she  put  to  use  the  same  imagination  that  got 
her  intt)  trouble  so  often  at  Agnes  Scott, 
and  found  ways  to  become  a  parent  and

The  teachers  lo\'ed  it." 

In  later  years,  the  schiKil  reached  S)8

Some  ot  the  schcxil's  better  teachers 
groused  privately  that  Gtxxi  was  so  positi\'e

decisions  tRim  the  kitty  security  ot

less  so. 

She  grew  up  happy  in  VC^ilhalla,  S.C. , 
graduated  from  Agnes  Scott  Qillege  in 
1943,  worked  m  retailing,  and  then 
married.  Her  husband,  L^lick  GikkI,  was  a 
\TvlCA  execLiti\e  whose  manic-depressi\'e 
illness  worsened  until  he  exenrually  was 
disabled.  He  died  in  1977,  aUiut  eight 
months  after  they  du'orced. 

During  their  marriage,  Joella  GiKxi 
shouldered  much  ot  the  responsibility  tor 
supptirting  their  two  datighters  —  Joella,  a 
tomier  teacher  now  rearing  rwo  children  in 
Q)lorado,  and  Margaret,  a  public  defender 
and  new  mother  in  Palm  Beach  Gountv, 
Ha. 

To  earn  a  li\'ing,  GihkI  taught  tor  11 
years  in  the  Palm  Beach  City  Sclnxil 
system,  the  most  affluent  schixil  system  in 
the  state.  Mo\'ing  to  Miami  when  her 
husband  changed  jobs,  GikxI  then  taught 
kir  two  years  in  the  region's  pixirest  strata,

The  fear  kiund  its  toeht)ld  not  onK  in

Henr^'  Adams,  and  the  quote  seems  fitting 
kir  GtKxi  and  the  general  dedic.inon  to 
educatitin  she  fostered  at  GtKonut  Grove 
Elementarv'. 

"A  teacher,"  Adams  said,  "affects

Gixxi  is  caretiil  to  note  that  such 
dedication  extended  particularK'  to  parents 
in  the  Ctx:onut  Gro\'e  comniLinitv,  parents 
rich  and  pcxir  alike,  who  belie\ed  in 
public  educatitin  and  insisted  on  re.sources 
kir  their  neighKirhcxxi  schcxil. 

Parents  raised  money  to  air  condition  all 
the  schcxil's  classrcxims,  still  a  luxury'  for  a 
South  Florida  elementary-  since  they  are  at 
the  Kittom  of  the  list  kir  such

Parents  \'i.ilunteered  tor  small  tasks,  tixi.

says  with  a  twinkle  in  her  eye.  "That's

But  more  than  money  and  head  lice 
duty,  parents  kept  sending  their  children 
to  the  schixil  day  after  day,  year  after  \ear. 

"They  didn't  pull  their  children  out,"

FOOD  FOR 
THOUGHT 

BA  good  breakfast,  they  say, 
starts  the  day  off  right. 
School  children  hear  such 
wisdom  repeatedly;  dieters 
are  admonished  never  to  skip 
the  day's  first  meal.  On-the- 
job  performance  improves 
dramatically,  some  studies 
show,  when  employees  have 
had  a  nourishing  breakfast 
before  starting  work. 

A  first-hand,  highly 
unscientific  Agnes  Scott 
study  on  the  subject  found 
the  following:  neither  Agnes

Gellerstedt  Jr.  boasts  much 
proficiency  in  the  kitchen, 
but  each  reveals  a  special

ibility  with  breakfast. 

"Oh,  I  do  fix  breakfast," 
isserts  Gellerstedt,  after 
Tiodestly  demurring  to  his 
vife,  Mary  Duckworth 
jellerstedt  '46,  on  all  other 
natters  culinary.  "But  you 
iee,  I  get  up  at  4:45,  leave 
:he  house  at  6  or  6:15. 
3efore  1  go,  1  always  fix 
"nyself  a  cantaloupe,  a  bowl 
jf  cereal,  orange  juice,  and 
:offee  or  tea.  And  on 
Saturdays,  1  go  all  out  — 
:heese  toast,  or  maybe  an 
English  muffin." 

Dr.  Schmidt,  whose 
schedule  is  probably  as 
lectic  as  her  board 
:hairman's,  also  savors  the 
'ituals  of  the  first,  solitary 
meal  of  the  day.  "I  love  to 
:at  breakfast.  It's  my  favorite 
Tieal,"  she  says.  On  most 
mornings,  her  choice  is  a 
i/ariation  on  Gellerstedt's 
'Breakfast  of  Champions," 
:ereal  with  half-and-half, 
fruit,  coffee.  "I  love  grits," 
;he  says,  in  response  to  a 
query  about  Southern 
:uisine.  "My  favorite 
breakfast,  though  I  seldom 
have  time  to  fix  it,  is  sausage 
and  grits.  I  really  get  upset 
when  I  don't  get  good  grits 
in  a  restaurant." 

As  for  more  daunting 
menus,  Gellerstedt  hails 
frozen  foods,  TV  dinners, 
and  a  well-known  Atlanta 
eatery.  The  Coach  and  Six. 

Dr.  Schmidt  falls  back  on 
vestiges  of  her  Minnesota 
upbringing:  a  repertoire  of 
Minnesota  "hot  dishes." 
Known  to  the  rest  of  the 
world  as  a  casserole,  a 
Minnesota  hot  dish,  chez 
Schmidt,  may  be  a  "creamy 
noodle"  concoction;  layers  of 
shell  macaroni,  cream 
cheese,  cottage  cheese,  and 
sour  cream  topped  with 
browned  ground  beef, 
onions,  and  tomato  sauce. 


Dr.  Schmidt  even  has  the 
perfect  Minnesota  hot  dish 
for  breakfast  —  a  ham,  eggs, 
bread,  cheese,  and  milk 
combination  that  is 
assembled  and  refrigerated 
overnight  before  being 
baked.  "It's  a  marvelous  dish 
for  a  crowd  for  brunch,"  says 
Chef  Schmidt.

professional  stciryteller.  As  she

—  a  distinct  genre  with 
antecedents  as  ancient  as 
Homer  and  as  American  as

player  in  Georgia  the  year 
before,  the  put-down  "really 
knt)cked  the  confidence  out 
of  me,"  Lay  says  now. 

But  not  for  long.  The 
terrified  16-year-old  soon 
metamorphosed  into  one  ot 
the  C'ollege's  outstanding 
team  players,  went  on  to  play 
in  the  L'.S.  championships 
at  Forest  Hills,  and  today  is 
one  of  the  most  sought  after 
girls'  tennis  coaches  in  the 
country.

Juniors  should  resist  pressure 
to  turn  pro  until  —  or  it  — 
they're  ready.  "Good 
coaching  is  basic;  you  have 
to  get  good  advice,"  she  says. 
"Play  the  right  tournaments, 
get  seasoned;  above  all,  play 
at  your  le\el  —  and  get  an

gestures  against  a  world-wide  evil  can 
be  as  effective  as  Jeremiah's  crying  out 
in  the  wilderness.  But  as  the  late 
president  John  F.  Kennedy  said,  'A 
journey  of  a  thousand  miles  begins  with 
a  single  step."  When  these  small 
gestures  are  multiplied  a  thousand 
times  or  more,  people  listen.  Building  a 
consensus  is  not  easy  but  it  can  be 
done  —  as  shown  by  the  students 
rights  cause  in  the  mid-1960s  and,  as 
noted,  the  anti-war  revolt  of  the  late 
1960s. 

Interestingly  enough,  no  student  at 
the  conference  came  down  four-square 
against  capitalism  —  other  than 
amending  it  to  give  everyone  equal 
rights  at  birth.  No  one  said  that 
communism,  socialism,  or  any  other 
kind  of  non-democratic  system  was  the 
best  way  to  address  society's  woes.  Nor 
did  anyone  decry  the  advantage  given 
him  or  her  by  capitalism  in  attending 
college.  The  students  realized  the 
American  capitalistic  system  has  its 
flaws,  but  it  IS  still  the  best 
hope  for  humankind  in  solving  the 
problems  that  scar  the  planet. 
Activism,  whether  simple  persuasion 
or  noisy  demonstrations,  is  our  system's 
best  hope  for  changing  the  things  that 
make  life  unfair  tor  most  of  the 
inhabitants  of  the  globe. 

One  can't  fundamentally  change  the 
nature  of  the  system,  as  people  found 
out  in  the  late  1960s.  But,  with 
determination  and  energy  one  can 
make  the  system  fairer,  as  Americans 
showed  then.  It  is  incumbent  on 
today's  students  to  make  that  same 
contribution.  They  may  be  a  quieter 
generation  than  those  previously  but,  if 
they  are  similarly  inspired  by  life's 
inequalities,  they  can  still  make  a 
difterence.  D

AGNES  SCOTT  NOTED 

FOR  POSITIVE  MINORITY 

ENVIRONMENT 


■In  a  recent  USA  TODAY 
article,  Agnes  Scott  was 
listed  as  one  of  the 
predominantly  white  colleges 
that  fostered  a  positive 
environment  for  black 
students. 

The  article  was  based  on  a 
book,  The  Black  Student's 
Guide  to  Colleges,  which  was 
the  result  of  a  survey  con- 
ducted by  Brown  University 
professor  Barry  Beckham. 


Beckham  asked  black  stu- 
dents which  colleges  had 
clo.se  relationships  between 
students  and  faculty,  and 
black  students  and  white  stu- 
dents, and  which  offered 
activities  or  courses  that  edu- 
cated students  on  African 
and  Afro-American  culture. 
Agnes  Scott  was  cited  fot 
"good  academics,  support 
services,  faculty,  and  black- 
white  relations."

COMPUTERS 

Blntemational  Business 
Machines  (IBM) 
Corporation  has  given  the 
College  25  computers  plus 
additional  hardware  and 
software.  The  large  donation 
will  help  establish  Agnes 
Scott's  computer  center  as 
one  of  the  finest  among 
colleges  in  the  Southeast. 

Because  of  the  tremendous 
demand  tor  computer 
knowledge  in  an  increasingly 
information-based  society, 
the  College  is  incorporating 
computers  tully  into  the 
curriculum. 

"We  firmly  believe  that  if 
our  graduates  are  to  make 
the  transition  from  the 
academic  world  to  the 
business  community,  then 
computer  knowledge  will  be 
an  integral  part,"  says  Dr. 
Thomas  Hi)gan,  director  of 
academic  computing.

,robury  House,  a  manor 
_     with  cottages  and  gar- 
dens situated  on  the  banks 
of  southwestern  England's 

River  Wye,  lies  nearer  to  the  Black 
Mountains  overlooking  Wales  than  to 
Edinburgh  or  to  London.  Yet  the  estate 
has  a  distinctly  Scottish  ambience  — 
Agnes  Scott-ish,  that  is. 

For  the  past  15  years,  Brobury  House 
has  been  home  to  Margaret  Andes 
Okarma  '52  and  her  husband  and 
family.  Since  1980,  the  estate  has  been 
the  scene  ot  a  unique  tra\'el  experience 
worthy  ot  Gourmet  or  Travel  and  Leisure 
magazines.  With  the  help  ot  two  either 
Agnes  Scott  alumnae  and  a  third 
Atlanta-area  friend,  Mrs.  Okarma 
annually  otters  a  series  ot  summer 
"houseparties"  at  Brobury.  She 
accommodates  ctnly  16  guests  at  a  time 
and  treats  them  to  the  tull  pleasures  ot 


the  English  countryside  and  uianor  lite. 

"  'If  It's  Tuesday,  This  Mtist  Be 
Belgium'  is  definitely  not  us,"  declares 
Mrs.  Okarma,  sitting  in  the  Buckhead 
li\'ing  room  of  Anne-Scott  Harman 
Mauldin  '35  during  a  trip  to  the  United 
States  recently.  Together  with 
Elizabeth  (Lib)  Blackshear  Flinn  '58 
and  a  Sweet  Briar  alumna  in  Atlanta, 
Jean  M(.)ister,  Mrs.  Mauldin  acts  as 
marketing  representative  for  the 
houseparties,  showing  slides  to 
interested  groups  and  mailing  brochure^ 
and  sample  itineraries  on  request. 
There  are  no  travel  agencies,  no 
advertisements,  no  sales  pitches;  all 
contacts  are  strictly  word-ot-mouth. 

"We  like  to  say  that  everybody  kntnvs 
somebody  who  knows  somebody,"  Mrs. 
Okarma  explains.  Though  there  is  no 
official  association  with  Agnes  Scott 
College,  'A  lot  ot  our  guests  —  maybe 
15  percent  —  are  alumnae  from 
Agnes  Scott." 

The  typical  Brobury  houseparty  is  a 
two-week  stay  tilled  with

The  Brobury  houseparty  grew  out  ot 
I  summer  visit  to  the  Okarma 
esidence  several  years  ago  by  some 
ongtime  Atlanta  friends,  Elizabeth 
ind  Bill  Flinn.  The  original  Okarma- 
'linn  "houseparty"  was  so  pleasant  that 
he  two  couples  decided  to  try 
ecruiting  several  more  couples  from 
\merica  for  a  two-week,  paid 
louseparty  to  show  off  the  estate  and 
he  Okarma's  corner  ot  England. 

Since  Mrs.  Mauldin  joined  the  team 
n  1982  —  to  help  relieve  Mrs.  Flinn 
—  the  houseparties  have  taken  on  a    *** 
ife  of  their  own.  Guests  have  heard 
ibout  Brobury  from  Washington  state 
o  Florida,  and  quite  a  tew  have 
eturned  two  or  more  summers  in  a 
ow,  often  with  friends  and  relatives 
n  tow. 

While  Mauldin  and  Okarma  scarcely 
ook  on  themselves  as  entrepreneurs, 
hey're  both  clearly  delighted  —  and 
omevvhat  surprised  —  with  their  new 
nid-life  "career."  Mrs.  Mauldin  has 
lisco\'ered  the  challenges  (and 
rustrations)  of  using  her  own  IBM 
'ersonai  Computer  to  keep  track  ot 
louseparty  details  such  as  itineraries, 
;uest  lists,  and  mailings.  And  Mrs 

Okarma  says  torth- 
rightly,  "I've 


discovered  that  I  iikg.  worrying  about 
the  big  stuff —  the  bills,  the  quality  of 
food  coming  out  of  the  kitchen,  the  16 
different  personalities  at  my  table." 

For  Mrs.  Mauldin,  working  with  the 
Brobury  houseparty  was  "a  wondt^rtul 
idea"  that  capitalized  ow  her  lov§  jbr    ,' 
travel.  Through  Atlanta's  Friendlhip  ,     ' 
Force,  she  had  already  visited  Belgiuip, 
England,  and  Korea  as  well  as       "*-*., 
welcomed  numerous  Friendship  jporcss^. 
visitors  to  Atlanta.  A 

Mrs.  Okarma  says  that  after  her 
children  were  grown  and  living         ^  ' 

"J  have  a  t/u'ng  about  iiomai  'voo&tmg 
their  Uves.  You  turn  50,  your  children 
leave  home.  .  .  .  1  think  you  should  use 
what  you've  got."  -\   '* 

elsewhere,  she  began  to  see  Brobury 
House  itself  as  something  worth 
sharing.  "1  have  a  thing  about  women 
wasting  their  li\'es,"  she  says.  "You  turn 
50,  your  children  leave  home  ....  I 
think  you  should  use  what  you've  got. 
What  1  could  do  was  entertain  guests.  I 
found  that  I  ct>uld  use  my  talents  in  a 
way  that  didn't  disrupt  the  common , 

good,  that  didn't  put  my  husband 
and  children  at  a  disadvantage 
or  disrupt  their  lives."         D

make  the  nursing  home  hers. 

Mildred  became  a  mother  when  her 
lather,  a  prominent  physician  in  Augusta, 
brought  her  a  baby  girl  who  had  been 
abandoned.  A  tew  years  later,  this  little  girl 
named  Jimmie,  began  praying  tor  a  little 
sister  When  Mildred  found  another  orphan 
girl,  she  and  Jimmie  went  to  bnng  home 
their  new  addition  to  the  family,  whom  they 
named  Bobbie.  Although  Jimmie  is  now 
married,  the  trio  are  inseparable. 

juggling  miitherhtxxi  with  the  help  of  a 
nanny,  Mildred  ran  the  nursing  home, 
Jennings  Manor,  for  13  years,  like  a  "real 
home."  She  installed  carpets,  cleaned  the 
facility,  and  offered  individually  requested 
meals.  She  hired  the  most  qualified  people 
she  could  find,  carekilly  supervised 
activities,  and  visited  patients  regularly. 

"A// 1  wanted  was  for  those 

people  to  be  treated  right.  . . . 

whatever  they  wanted,  as  long 

as  I  had  a  penny,  I'd  see  that 

they  got  it. " 

Under  her  administration,  the  nursing 
home  grew  from  17  to  79  beds. 

"All  1  wanted  was  for  those  people  to  be 
treated  nght.  The  nursing  home  was  for  the 
residents.  Whatever  they  wanted,  as  king  as 
I  had  a  penny,  I'd  see  that  they  got  it." 

As  a  full-time  mother  and  nursing  home 
administrator,  she  still  found  time  to  be 
involved  in  her  hometown  of  Augusta. 
There,  she  has  served  on  the  Girls  Center 
board,  was  a  consultant  to  the  United  Way, 
on  the  board  of  the  Salvation  Army,  and 
spearheaded  the  development  ot  the  Mental 
Health  Asstxiation. 

Listed  in  Wh)'s  Wh)  of  Amenam  Women 
and  Who's  Who  m  Georgia,  Mildred  has 
been  actively  involved  with  the  United 
Way,  Georgia  Gerontology  Asaxiation, 
American  Hospital  Association,  American 
Society  for  Hospital  ScKial  Workers, 
Council  of  the  Royal  Society  of  Health  of 
London,  and  Georgia  Mental  Heakh 
AsstKiation. 

Although  she  has  since  stild  the  nursing 
home  and  her  children  are  grown,  Mildred 
remains  active.  Former  employee  and  close 
friend  Manon  Gelzer  describes  Mildred  as 
one  who  shares  her  ideas  with  others, 
supports  someone  in  developing  community 
programs,  and  then  gives  that  individual  full 
credit.  Mildred's  phone  nngs  continually  at 
her  home  with  calls  from  people  asking 
advice  t)r  help,  which  she  freely  gives. 

Her  liberal  arts  education  and  college 
relationships,  she  says,  formed  a  foundation 
on  which  she  planned  and  lived  her  lite  — 
to  work  hard  in  whatever  she  pursued,  to 
increase  her  knowledge,  and  to  attempt  the 
nearly  impossible  —  and  to  win.  D

IN  APRIL  1974,  WHEN  ANNOUNC- 
ing  the  appointment  of  Vitginia  Brown 
McKenzie  as  alumnae  director,  Marvin 
Perry,  then  president  of  the  College,  said, 
"Agnes  Scott  is  most  fortunate  to  enlist  the 
services  of  a  woman  ot  Mrs.  McKenzie's 
winning  personality,  energy,  and 
managerial  ability  so  necessary  for  this 
important  position."  Now,  on  the  eve  of 
Virginias  retirement,  as  1  pause  to  reflect 
upon  that  past  decade  in  which  Virginia's 
career  and  my  years  of  most  active 
alumnae  involvement  so  closely  coincided, 
I  am  reminded  of  just  how  much  her 
loyalty  and  support  have  meant  both  to 
me  and  to  the  QiUege. 

A  native  Atlantan  whose  parents  were 
both  educators,  Virginia  Lee  Brown 
exhibited  both  in  high  schcwl  and  college 
the  leadership  abilities  which  were  utilized 
through  subsequent  chapters  of  her  life.  A 
1947  graduate  of  Agnes  Scott  with  a  major 
in  journalism,  and  the  wife  of  John  Stuart 
McKenzie,  Virginia  is  the  mother  of  tour 
children,  one  of  whom  is  an  alumna, 
Cla.ss  of  70. 

Twice  president  of  the  Atlanta  Club 
and  a  team  captain  in  the  75th 
Anniversary  Capital  Funds  Campaign, 
Virginia  kept  alive  those  alumnae  ties 
which  have  served  her  well  since  she 
joined  the  Qillege  on  a  full-time  basis. 

In  the  more  than  a  decade  of  Virginias 
service,  alumnae  affairs  have  increased  in 
virtually  all  areas:  alumnae  giving, 
continuing  education,  alumnae  travel 
groups,  alumnae  participation  in  QiUege 
activities  and  planning,  and  attendance  for 
Alumnae  Weekend  and  Alumnae 
Leadership  Conference.  The  award 
program  for  recognition  of  outstanding 
alumnae  has  become  a  tradition 
enthusiastically  repeated  each  year;  the

Fifty  Year  club,  fomied  in  Virginia's 
administration,  is  one  ot  the  most 
energetic  in  the  class  organization's 
stmcture. 

&mtinuing  interest  in  the  Gillege  was 
furthered  by  a  magazine,  edited  by 
Virginia,  and  published  quarterly 
Continuing  interest  in  alumnae  themselves 
was  reflected  in  the  systematizing  of  files 
on  each  one,  begun  under  Virginia's 
direction. 

Agnes  Scott's  alumnae  director 
represents  the  College  on  a  national  level 
in  the  Council  for  Advancement  and 
Support  of  Education,  and  since  1975,  in 
ADAPT,  an  organization  composed  of 
alumnae  directors  and  alumnae  association 
presidents  in  13  U.S.  women's  colleges. 

In  1977,  the  first  alumnae  directory-  in 
29  years  was  published,  a  successful 
demonstration  of  the  combined  efforts  of 
the  alumnae  staff  and  numerous 
volunteers.  At  present,  alumnae  clubs 
throughout  the  country  constitute  a 
structure  intact  and  ready  to  be  utilized  in 
the  approaching  centennial  campaign. 

Important  as  all  these  advances  are, 
however,  those  of  us  who  know  Virginia 
best  realize  that  closest  to  her  heart  are 
individual  alumnae,  whose  lives  make  the 
strongest  statement  for  Agnes  Scott. 
Sincere  respect  and  regard  for  alumnae  are 
the  basis  for  Virginia's  emphasis  on  the 
importance  of  the  alumnae  representative 
body,  its  board  of  directors.  In  cooperation 
with  seven  alumnae  presidents,  Virginia 
has  worked  tirelessly  to  broaden  the  range 
of  the  Kiard's  interest,  intomiation,  and 
involvement.  In  Virginia's  words,  "Being 
alumnae  director  has  been  a  privilege  -  a 
sheer  joy  because  Agnes  Scott  alumnae  ate 
so  very  special. "  D

OUT  THE  WINDOW 


ome  ot  the  articles  in  this  issue 
are  uncomfortable  to  read. 
I  had  trouble  editing  them 
without  sensing  waves  of  strong 
feeling  flowing  at  the  same  time  I 
tried  dispassionately  to  check  gram- 
mar and  catch  comma  splices. 

But  maybe  that's  good.  Dorothy 
Burns  Douglas  '61,  Eliza  King 
Paschall  '38,  Professor  Deirdre  Good 
and  Jean  HoeferToal  '65  are  raising 
good  questions  —  questions  that  press 
us  to  rethink  our  answers  as  the  world 
changes  around  us.  In  this  sense, 
change  is  lifegiving.  Like  the  seasons, 
or  turning  up  the  earth  each  spring 
before  planting,  change  brings  us 
new  problems  to  keep  us  thinking 
and  growing.  But  change  is  not 
without  sadness. 

Last  Saturday,  change  hit  head-on: 
My  daughter  turned  3  years  old.  Among  other  things, 
her  friends  gave  her  a  Lego  building  set,  a  pots-and-pans 
play  set  and  a  black  Hot  Wheels  Porsche,  as  well  as  a 
pair  ot  overalls.  In  spite  of  our  pride  and  excitement 
over  our  3-year-old,  sometimes  I  miss  the  baby  who 
always  could  be  comforted  by  nursing,  or  the  toddler 
who  never  refused  a  hug. 

Liberal  education  prepares  us  to  cope  with  change 
because  it  teaches  us  how  to  keep  asking:  Who  are  we? 
Why  are  we  here?  What  do  we  have  in  common? 

As  Eliza  Paschall  notes  in  her  article,  we  women 
all  over  the  globe,  in  all  social,  economic,  and  political 
situations.  Nations  often  have  complex  divisions  among 
their  people.  Surely,  these  divisions  surfaced  at  the 
United  Nations  Women's  Conference  in  Nairobi,  as  they 
have  in  any  other  international  gathering. 


ive 


Paschall  argues  that  when  men 
gather  for  international  conferences, 
they  identify'  substantive  issues, 
"represent  the  national  interests  of 
theirowncountries,"and  they  aren't 
expected  to  subordinate  national 
interests  and  responsibilities  to 
personal  concerns.  "There  are  no 
women's  issues  that  are  not  also  men's 
issues  and  vice  versa.  .  .  ,"  she 
writes.  "We  cannot  bring  peace  and 
prosperity  to  women  without  bring- 
ing peace  and  prosperity  to  men." 
Unquestionably  true. 

Dorothy  Douglas  might  add:  in  a 
nuclear  age,  can  we  bring  peace  and 
prosperity  to  America  without  bring- 
ing peace  and  prosperity  to  the 
world?  Can  we  find  peace  solely  in 
the  framework  of  our  national 
interests? 

Eleanor  Roosevelt  clearly  thought  differently.  Ap- 
pointed to  a  "do-nothing"  position  as  U.S.  delegate  and 
chair  of  the  UN  Commission  on  Human  Rights,  she 
outmaneuvered  Secretary  of  State  John  Foster  Dulles  to 
the  day  in  1948  when  she  addressed  the  UN  General 
Assembly  to  speak  for  passage  ot  the  Uni\'ersal  Declara- 
tion on  Human  Rights.  Though  without  legal  force,  the 
document  has  stood  as  a  common  standard  ot  achieve- 
ment for  all  persons  of  all  nations,  without  regard  to 
color,  race,  religion  or  other  differences.  The  declaration 
set  forth  personal,  political  and  civil  rights  that  have 
been  the  standard  against  which  the  United  Nations 
has  measured  nations'  treatment  of  their  people  tor 
almost  40  years. 

In  this  issue  ot  the  magazine,  each  individual  demon- 
strates a  sense  ot  connectedness  and  responsibility  for 
the  world  around  them  that  has  characterized  women's 
education  and  the  liberal  arts. —Lynn  Donham

TURNABOUT 


I  am  thoroughly  enjoying  the  new 
Alumnae  Magazine.  Its  variety,  appear- 
ance, and  overall  quality  are  delightful. 
1  was  particularly  interested  in  Mr. 
Pousner's  article  on  "The  DNA  Split." 
We  all  must  struggle  with  problems  of 
science  and  ethics,  and  it  is  very  gratify- 
ing to  know  that  Agnes  Scott  students 
are  studying  such  urgent  topics. 

And  I  love  the  article  on  Margaret

You  asked  for  it. 

The  new-ish  ASC  Alumnae  Maga:!:ine 
is  slick,  much  too  slick.  While  I  have 
found  the  contents  to  be  more  or  less 
interesting,  I'm  not  terribly  impressed 
with  the  amount  of  money  which  must 
go  into  the  magazine's  production.  It 
looks  too  much  like  a  report  to 
stockholders! 

And  am  I  correct  in  presuming  that 
you  are  now  paying  for  articles  ?  A  far  cry 
from  1949  when  I  wrote  a  brief  article 
for  the  then  magazine  in  return  for  a 
"thanks"  from  Eleanor  Hutchens.

Morahan  studies  body's  immune  system 


Every  once  in  a  while 
it's  good  for  people  to 
shake  themselves  up," 
Page  Smith  Morahan  '61 
said.  She  did  just  that 
when  she  left  a  comfortable 
home  and  a  good  job  in 
Richmond  and  moved  to 
Philadelphia  to  be  the 
microbiology  chair  at  the 
Medical  College  of  Pennsyl- 
vania, 'i  was  intrigued 
with  the  possibility  ot 
being  chairman  at  a  small 
private  school  somewhat 
analogous  to  Agnes  Scott." 

Dr.  Morahan  is  one  ot 
only  five  female  medical 
school  department  chairs 
in  the  country.  The  Medi- 
cal College  of  Pennsylvania 
was  one  of  the  original 
women's  medical  schools, 
founded  in  1850,  and  has 
always  attended  to  the 
needs  of  women.  It's  co-ed 
now,  but  more  than  50 
percent  ot  the  student 
population  is  female.  The 
percentage  of  women  in 
most  medical  schools  is 
only  25  to  30  percent,  said 
Dr.  Morahan.  The  Medical 
College  ot  Pennsylvania 


faculty  has  more  male 
professors  than  female, 
however.  Still,  she  adds, 
that's  more  female  faculty 
members  than  most  medi- 
cal colleges  have. 

Dr.  Morahan  said  that 
she  accepted  the  job  be- 
cause she  "felt  like  I  could 
continue  doing  research  in 
addition  to  my  teaching 
and  administrative  duties. " 
Her  main  research  explores 
how  the  body  defends  itself 
against  microbial  infec- 
tions, particularly  the 
herpes  simplex  virus,  in 
tumors.  She  agreed  that 
AIDS  has  stolen  the  stage 
from  herpes  and  explained, 
"AIDS  is  essentially  lethal," 
and  that's  very  rare.  "If 
someone  is  diagnosed  with 
AIDS,  he  will  die  within 
three  years.  Herpes  is  a 
tremendous  problem  if  it  is 
not  treated,  but  there  is 
little  mortality." 

She  said  her  research 
seeks  to  design  better  ways 
to  fight  cancers  in  mi- 
crobes. Now  there  are 
three  major  ways  to  treat 
cancer:  surgery,  radiation 


and  chemotherapy.  A 
fourth  treatment,  the  use 
of  interferon,  has  received 
much  attention.  Interferon 
mobilizes  the  body  and  is 
considered  by  some  to  be 
preferable  over  the  use  of 
chemotherapeutic  drugs 
which  harm  normal  cells  as 
well  as  tumors.  Scientists 
are  now  tr>'ing  to  replicate 
the  body's  immunological 
hormones  — a  whole  new 
arm  of  pharmacology. 
"This  will  take  another  10 
years  to  perfect,  hut  1 
predict  that  it  will  be  a 
major  way  to  treat  cancer- 
ous patients,"  said  Dr. 
Morahan. 

Dr.  Morahan  credits  her 
success  to  a  "good  educa- 
tion in  science  at  Agnes 
Scott'*  — the  chemistry 
degree  has  the  stamp  of 
approval  of  the  American 
Chemistry  Society  — and 
to  her  experience  as  a 
technician.  "There  are  too 
many  people  in  faculty 
positions  without  real 
world  experience,"  she 
said. 

Mentor  and  employer 
Howard  Schneider  encour- 
aged Dr.  Morahan  early  in 
her  career.  "He  did  some- 
thing relatively  unheard  of 
then.  He  put  his  assistant's 
(my)  name  on  a  scientific 
abstract.  I  then  decided  to 


go  to  school  full  time  and 
attend  Cornell  Medical 
School. "  She  got  her  Ph.  D. 
from  Marquette  University. 

Dr.  Morahan  was  a 
Blackfriar  and  editor  of 
Silhouette  at  Agnes  Scott. 
Her  interests  have  since 
diversified;  she  lives  in 
Spring  Garden  Historic 
District,  a  historically 
certified  neighborhood, 
and  IS  interested  in  solar 
energy,  gourmet  cooking, 
quality  craft  art  and  wear- 
able art.  Most  recently  she 
has  learned  to  scuba  dive 
and  swam  the  waters  of  the 
Grand  Cayman  Islands, 
the  Bahamas  and  Portugal. 
"I  took  the  rugged  10-week 
course  with  a  bunch  of 
medical  school  jocks  and 
only  four  women  were  in 
the  class.  I  was  certified 
and  have  been  diving  ever 
since.  I  plan  to  dive  in  the 
Red  Sea  next  year  when  m\ 
job  will  take  me  to  Israel," 
she  said. 

Dr.  Morahan  said  she 
has  learned  that  "it's  not 
easy  to  have  dual-career 
marriages  and  that  one 
needs  to  be  willing  to  move 
for  one's  profession  even 
though  it's  very  difficult 
and  takes  an  extra  commit- 
ment. "  —  Laurie  K. 
McBrayer  '83 


Bacon  mokes  mountains  of  mugs 


t's  been  a  family  joke  that 
if  one  of  the  children  is 
going  to  a  birthday  party, 
I  ask  him,  'would  you  like 
to  take  a  mug?'  It  worked 
for  a  while,"  said  Edna 
McLain  Bacon  '66. 

Ms.  Bacon,  a  chemistry 
major,  has  made  a  lot  of 
mugs  since  returning  to 


Agnes  Scott  for  a  fine  arts 
degree.  A  former  Decatur 
resident,  she  took  craft 
courses  at  the  YWCA  and 
Decatur  Recreation 
Center.  "I  always  thought 
that  you  are  either  artistic 
and  create  art  or  you  enjoy 
art  and  you  create  what 
others  have  designed.

LIFESmES 


Then,  I  took  a  creative 
stitchery  class  and  discov- 
ered I  could  learn  how  to 
design." 

Ms.  Bacon  decided  that 
she  wanted  to  earn  grades 
and  credits  so  she  re- 
entered Agnes  Scott  in 
1976  tor  a  second  degree  in 
fine  arts  and  took  her  first 
potter^'  course  under  Profes- 
sor Robert  Westervelt. 

Several  years  later  she 
and  her  family  nroved  to 
Cartersville,  Ga.  'As  a 
consolation  tor  leaving 
Decatur,  1  set  up  a  studio 
and  started  selling  pottery 
to  support  my  craft." 

Ms.  Bacon  has  taught 
classes  at  the  Adult  Craft 
Center  in  Montreat,  N.C. , 
and  the  Arts  Council  in 
Cartersville.  She  has 
created  everything  from 


wine  and  ratatouille.  "I 
don't  have  any  idea  how 
many  4,000  is,  but  it's  a 
lot!  I'll  never  be  intimi- 
dated about  production 
again,"  she  said. 

"I  tell  friends  that  getting 
a  job  like  that  one  is  a 
matter  ot  timing,  luck  and 
knowing  the  right  people. " 
She  remembers  sending  out 
a  large  mailing  in  anticipa- 
tion ot  an  upcoming  arts 
and  crafts  show.  "One  of 
the  recipients  was  Cloudt's 
Catering,  and  they  were 
looking  for  an  artist  they 
could  commission  to  make 
the  cups."  So  they  called 
her  and  she  made  several 
samples;  they  chose  one 
and  placed  the  order. 

Two  years  ago  she  de- 
signed and  made  the 
communion  cups  for  the 


Sloop's  gift  is  teaching  the  gifted 


coffee  mugs  to  awards  for  a 
local  road  race.  But  her 
greatest  coup  was  a  con- 
tract for  4,000  wine  cups 
for  a  Piedmont  Park  Gour- 
met Picnic  on  the  eve  ot 
the  Piedmont  Arts  Festival. 
The  cups  were  more  like 
Japanese  tea  cups,  she 
added,  and  were  used  for 


General  Assembly  meeting 
that  united  the  Presbyte- 
rian churches.  Her  husband, 
Steve,  is  a  Presbyterian 
minister. 

Most  recently,  Ms. 
Bacon  showed  her  work  at 
the  Cobb  County  Jubilee 
Labor  Day  weekend. —

Dr.  Betty  Brown 
Sloop  '65  has  seen 
education  from 
many  different  angles  since 
her  graduation  from  Agnes 
Scott.  As  a  student,  she 
went  from  Agnes  Scott  to 
Georgia  State  University, 
where  she  was  certified  in 
secondary  social  studies 
and  elementary  education, 
and  then  to  North  Georgia 
College  for  her  master's 
degree  in  early  childhood 
education.  She  earned  her 
doctorate  in  educational 
psychology  from  the  Uni- 
versity of  Georgia.  As  a 
teacher,  she  has  been 
involved  on  the  preschool, 
junior  high  and  graduate 
levelsT 

Dr.  Sloop's  broad  per- 
spective on  education  led 
to  her  appointment  in  June 
1983  to  Governor  Joe 
Frank  Harris'  Education 
Review  Commission,  an 
18-month  project  tor  which 
she  served  as  vice  chair  of 
the  personnel  committee. 
The  committee  examined 
preparation,  certification, 
staff  development,  evalua- 
tion and  compensation  for 
teachers  and  administrators 
in  Georgia's  public  school 
system.  The  recommenda- 
tions of  the  Education 
Review  Commission 
tormed  the  basis  of  the 
Quality  Basic  Education 
Act,  passed  during  the 


1985  legislative  session. 

Now  a  special  education 
teacher  working  with  gifted 
students  at  Shiloh  Middle 
School  in  Gwinnett 
County,  Dr.  Sloop  is  past 
president  ot  the  Georgia 
Association  tor  Gifted 
Children.  Last  summer,  she 
served  on  the  Professional 
Standards  Commission, 
which  makes  recommenda- 
tions to  the  state  Board  of 
Education,  and  was  also 
assistant  director  of  instruc- 
tion for  the  Governor's 
Honors  Program,  an  inten- 
sive, six- week  program  for 
academically  outstanding 
rising  juniors  and  seniors. 
At  Governor's  Honors,  she 
said,  "I  was  able  to  combine 
my  two  great  loves  —  work- 
ing with  teachers  and 
working  with  highly  moti- 
vated students." 

In  their  home  counr\'  ot 
DeKalb,  Dr.  Sloop  and  her 
husband,  Steve  Sloop  Jr., 
pastor  of  Emory  Presbyte- 
rian Church,  work  in  PTA 
at  Avondale  High  School, 
where  their  three  children 
attend. 

One  might  wonder  if 
this  dedication  to  educa- 
tion runs  in  Dr.  Sloop's 
family;  after  all,  her  grand- 
father, James  Ross  McCain, 
was  the  second  president  of 
Agnes  Scott  College.

Guest  gives  women  'just  the  facts' 


Felicia  Guest  '66  said 
Agnes  Scott  instilled 
in  her  a  hunger  to  be 
a  writer.  She  started  fast  — 
writing  pamphlets  for 


Grady  Hospital's  Family 
Planning  Center  following 
graduation.  "My  commit- 
ment to  the  subject  area 
was  secondary,"  she  said.

LIFES1YLES 


Nov\',  more  than  15  years 
later,  Ms.  Guest  has  a 
reputation  and  expertise  in 
women's  reproductive 
health  and  acts  as  training 
coordinator  for  the  Re- 
gional Training  Center  tor 
Family  Planning,  part  ot 
the  Oh'Gyn  department  at 
Emor\'  University's  School 
of  Medicine. 

"It's  a  Held  I  expect  to 
stay  in;  it  changes  all  the 
time.  One  important  issue 
is  women's  reproductive 
autonomy,  which  must 
exist  before  women  ha\'e 
choices,"  she  explained. 
During  the  next  15  years 
Ms.  Guest  expects  to  speak 
to  the  needs  of  women  who 
are  in  the  second  half  ot 
their  reproductive  lite. 
"The  hahy  boomers  — the 
majority  of  the  popula- 
tion—  will  be  leaving  the 
baby-bearing  years.  They 
will  need  to  know  about 
menopause,  calcium  defi- 
ciency, sterilization  and 
routine  health  care." 

"1  have  never  met  a 
woman  who  felt  that  all  of 
her  questions  had  been 
adequately  answered. 
There  is  a  great  audience 
out  there  for  news  about 
reproductive  health." 

Last  summer  Ms.  Guest 
took  a  sabbatical  to  revise 
M>'  Body,  My  Health,  a 
700-page  book  she  helped 
write  and  edit,  now  a 
classic  in  the  tield.  Last 
revised  in  1980,  "the  sec- 
ond edition  had  nothing 
about  pre-menstrual  syn- 
drome, routine  hormone 
replacement  for  meno- 
pausal women,  or  in  vitro 


fertilization.  Also,  the 
chapter  about  the  Pill  was 
ver\'  negative,"  she  said. 
"Now  the  news  is  much 
more  positive.  Research 
forces  you  to  change  your 
intellectual  opinions." 

Four  days  each  week  Ms. 
Guest  teaches  and  writes  at 
the  training  center.  "I 
write  so  women  can  stay 
current,  and  I  teach  so 
professionals  can  stay  cur- 
rent." She  visits  two  to 
three  cities  each  month 
among  the  eight  southeast- 
ern states  that  have  family 
planning  centers  to  "keep 
their  stafts  abreast  of  what's 
going  on  in  the  field. "  The 
fifth  day  she  commits  to 
freelance  writing. 

She  also  helped  write 
Contraceptive  Technology,  a 
standard  manual  for  health 
professionals  now  in  its 
12th  international  edition. 

Ms.  Guest  said  that  the 
tirst  books  on  contracep- 
tion arose  from  the  women's 
movement  and  were  \'ery 
political.  In  writing  My 
Body,  My  Hea/th,"we 
wanted  to  create  a  book 
that  was  politically  neu- 
tral —  one  that  gave  women 
just  the  facts.  I  think  that 
we  were  very'  successful  in 
that.  Consumer  Reports 
would  not  have  adopted 
our  book  if  it  had  been 
political." 

According  to  Ms.  Guest 
the  '80s  woman  "just  wants 
the  facts.  She  knows  it's 
okay  to  demand  services 
and  ask  questions  from 
doctors.  She's  more  able  to 
take  care  of  herself  now. "

One's  surplus  is 
another's  supper 


hen  a  commercial 
freezer  broke  in 
an  independent, 
Memphis  grocery  store, 
Virginia  L.  Dunaway  '56 
was  among  the  tirst  to 
know.  She  doesn't  fix 
freezers,  but  she  is  director 
of  the  Memphis  Food 
Bank,  and  that  was  all  the 
grocer  needed  to  know. 
The  Memphis  Food  Bank, 
and  some  75  other  non- 
profit Food  Banks  like  it  in 
the  country,  solicits  food 
donations  from  wholesal- 
ers, distributors,  retailers 
and  others  in  the  food 
industry  to  be  passed  to 
worthy  agencies  who  help 
teed  hungry-  people  in  the 
community.  The  goods  are 
all  high-quality,  whole- 
some foods  which  tor  one 
reason  or  another  are  un- 
marketable to  consumers. 
The  Memphis  grocer 
chipped  in  some  5,000 
pounds  of  TV  dinners,  pot 
pies  and  other  frozen  goods. 

"Sitting  in  Rebekah 
(and  working  toward  a 
history  degree)  I  never 
dreamed  I'd  be  working 


with  a  program  like  this," 
says  Ms.  Dunaway,  who 
now  manages  an  18,000 
square-foot  warehouse  and 
is  well-versed  in  trucking, 
food  distribution  and  food 
warehouse  sanitation.  "I 
have  found,  though,  that 
my  Agnes  Scott  education 
has  served  me  well,"  she 
says.  The  writing  skills  she 
gained  at  Agnes  Scott  have 
helped  her,  no  doubt,  in 
her  frequent  writing  ot 
proposals  and  reports.  But 
even  more  important,  Ms. 
Dunaway  says,  "I  gained 
self-confidence  through  my 
education.  I  feel  that  I  can 
accomplish  whatever  needs 
to  be  done." 

A  strong  believer  in 
community  service,  she 
was  working  with  VISTA 
(Volunteers  In  Service  To 
America)  and  MIFA 
(Metropolitan  Inter-Faith 
Association)  when  the 
opportunity  to  establish  a 
food  bank  in  Memphis 
arose.  She  helped  develop 
the  program  and  became 
director.  She  manages 
both  operations  and  public 
relations,  heightening 
community  awareness  ot 
the  food  bank's  services 
and  soliciting  support  tor 
the  program. 

It  all  adds  up  to  tangible 
results,  she  says.  "I  really 
enjoy  being  in  a  position 
where  I  can  mobilize  people 
to  help  solve  a  community 
problem  and  where  I  can 
see  that  what  we're  doing 
makes  a  difference."  — Lee

Hand-crafted 
Homes 


by  Alisa  Wendorph 


From  the  second  floor 
balcony,  job  superin- 
tendent Karl  McPherson 
and  Judy  Mozen  go  over 
blueprints  of  a  "spec" 
house  in  Boulder  Creek. 
Behind  them  is  the  arch- 
way of  the  front  entrance. 


A  small  woman  backs  out  of 
the  shiny  black  Volvo  wagon, 
stuffing  a  roll  of  blueprints 
under  her  arm.  The  Georgia  clay  of 
the  building  site  matches  her  two 
pigtails,  gathered  tight  with  red  craft 
yarn.  Her  shadow,  daughter  Chelsea, 
9,  protectively  balances  a  breakfast 
bowl  of  yogurt  on  a  sawhorse  in  what 
will  be  the  garage.  Wearing  Sasson 
jeans,  tennis  shoes  and  a  bright 
flowered  shirt  Judy  Jackson  Mozen 
'67,  designer  and  builder,  stands  out 
among  the  sunburned  men  with 
carpenter  belts. 

Only  a  few  of  the  workmen  even 
glance  as  she  enters  the  framed 
house.  Another  shadow,  looking 
much  like  a  frenzied  businessman  in 
shorts  and  a  T-shirt,  seeks  her  advice 
immediately.  Karl  McPherson,  job 


superintendent,  explains  the 
plumber's  dilemma  and  solicits  Judy's 
quick  response,  "The  faucet  must  go 
here  so  the  owner  can  reach  it 
without  leaning  too  far  over  the  tub 
to  turn  it  on,"  she  says. 

Judy  smiles  a  lot  as  she  talks  to  the 
workmen.  Her  voice  is  a  soft  alto  and 
often  sounds  like  a  patient  mother. 
"Sometimes  that  is  a  disadvantage," 
said  Judy.  "Someone  meets  me  for  the 
first  time  and  thinks  I  don't  know 
what  I'm  doing.  That  1  can  be 
pushed  around.  But  I've  been  in  this 
for  almost  10  years  and  I've  learned 
a  lot.  I  just  like  to  pick  their  brain 
first.  Then  I  make  the  decision  based 
on  all  the  information  I've  gathered. "

the  plumber,  she  insists  on  more 
spigots  outside,  "I  can't  stand  an 
expensive  house  that  has  hoses 
ever^'where  because  there  aren't 
enough  (faucets)."  She  doesn't 
scrimp  when  aesthetics  are  at  stake. 

An  architect  or  designer  is  inter- 
ested in  the  final  look  and  "workabil- 
ity" of  a  house.  But  the  builder  must 
build  the  house  within  an  estimated 
cost.  And  building  costs  saved  means 
profit  gained.  Judy  designs  the  house 
ami  is  the  builder.  "Many  feel  that  it 
is  a  conflict  of  interest  for  a  builder 
to  design  a  house;  I  disagree,"  said 
Judy.  "My  heart  and  ego  are  in  this 
house.  While  I  want  to  get  my  money 
out  of  it,  I'm  not  about  to  sabotage 
my  design,  which  is  an  advantage  to 
the  homeowner." 

"Judy  is  a  perfectionist,"  said  Dr. 
Eugene  Davidson.  When  he  and  his 
wife  first  saw  their  house  it  was 
basically  finished.  "I  don't  like  things 
done  sloppily,"  said  Davidson.  "Too 
many  houses  built  in  Atlanta,  in  any 
price  range,  are  done  sloppily.  This 
house  was  built  with  a  lot  of  care.  If 
Judy  saw  something  not  done  well, 
whether  we  had  even  noticed  it  or 
not,  she'd  tear  it  apart  and  do  it 
over."  Unsatisfied  with  their  previous 
homes,  the  Davidsons  looked  at  more

than  100  houses,  hunting  one  they 
would  not  have  to  spend  all  their 
time  and  money  rebuilding  to  their 
specifications.  "This  house  was  built 
by  craftsmen  rather  than  just 
builders,"  added  Davidson. 

Dot  and  Jerr>'  Blum  have  been  in 
their  house,  designed  and  built  by 
Judy,  four  and  a  half  years.  "1  feel 
like  it's  only  been  six  months,"  said 
Jerry,  general  manager  of  radio 
station  WQXI  94Q.  "We  wanted 
high  quality  and  seeing  the  homes 
Judy  had  built,  we  were  determined 
to  have  her  build  ours  when  we  were 
ready.  The  building  experience  was 
so  pleasant,  I  would  gladly  do  it 
again.  She's  honest  and  does  quality 
work." 

Quality  work  on  unusual  designs 
is  difficult  to  find.  "There  are  few 
contract  construction  workers  in 
Atlanta  who  do  quality  woodwork  or 
rockwork.  So  we  trained  a  handful 
of  folks  who  are  not  on  our  payroll 
but  whom  I  keep  calling  back  to  do 
the  work  on  our  homes,"  said  Judy. 
Blum  is  pleased,  however  she  does  it. 
"Our  house  is  not  the  traditional 
Georgian  house  (square).  It  was 
custom  built  and  the  flow  of  the 
house  and  the  construction  are  a 
piece  ofart."  Patiently,  Judy  explains 
to  the  hovering  workmen,  "I  don't 
want  to  come  into  just  a  kitchen,  I 
want  to  come  into  a  nice  room." 

Judy  enjoys  relating  to  the  client 
family  and  wants  their  home  to  feel 
personal,  to  feel  warm.  In  that  she 
is  successful.  "We've  been  in  our 
house  over  a  year  and  love  it,"  said 
Davidson.  "The  combination  of 
setting  and  the  way  the  house  was 
built  makes  it  unusual.  The  stone 
and  wood  create  a  nice  balance  of 
natural  materials.  It's  more  sophisti- 
cated than  most  in  Georgia  and  very 
livable.  It's  fun,  a  pleasure  to  live  in." 

The  attention  to  detail,  a  large 
part  of  Judy's  success,  she  says  she 
acquired  at  Agnes  Scott.  She  ma- 
jored in  political  science  and  history. 
"The  biggest  thing  Agnes  Scott 
contributed  to  what  I'm  doing  now 


is  the  need  for  perfection.  In  English, 
we  had  to  do  it  over  and  over  'til  it 
was  right,  and  that's  important  in 
what  I'm  doing  now. "  she  said.  Judy 
is  not  a  licensed  architect  —  only 
commercial  builders  need  a  license. 

'At  this  stage  I  can't  see  taking  out 
five  years  from  work  to  go  back  to 
school,  my  work  doesn't  fit  their 
mold.  Besides,  I  don't  need  a  license. 
There  is  something  about  the  Amer- 
ican homesteader  that  will  always 
preserve  the  right  of  someone  to  buy 
their  own  land  and  build  their  own 
house. "  She  adds,  grinning,  "I  would 
love  to  teach  some  of  the  things  I've 
learned,  but  I  don't  think  they're 
ready  for  a  woman." 

Judy  got  much  of  her  experience 
by  watching  and  making  comments 
as  her  ex-husband,  Tom,  a  licensed 
architect,  designed  houses.  "I  was 
teaching  high  school  social  studies 
in  the  Atlanta  school  system  when 
Tom  and  his  partner  purchased  some 
property  to  build  the  Rising  Sun 
subdivision.  I  convinced  Tom  to  let 
me  design  a  house.  I  still  have  the 
cardboard  model  house  I  designed." 
Tom  and  his  partner  built  the  house 
which  quickly  sold  for  more  than  anv 
of  the  previous  homes  they  had  built 
in  the  area.  "Of  course,  I  didn't  get 
any  money  for  that  one,"  said  Judy. 
"So  for  the  next  one  I  requested 
$250.  Peanuts,  right!" 

Within  two  years  she  left  teaching 
and  was  working  in  partnership  with 
Tom  as  half  owner/designer/builder  of 
Handcrafted  Homes.  She  still  misses 
teaching.  "1  miss  being  able  to  go 
home  at  the  end  of  the  day  and  not 
think  much  more  about  the  job  until 
I  go  to  work  the  next  morning. 
But  more  than  that  1  miss  the  kids 
and  the  friendships,  and  the  feeling 
of  contributing  something  to  the 
community.  1  just  don't  feel  the  same 
sense  of  community  service,  except 
now  I'm  giving  Atlanta  something 
artistic  to  look  at. "  That's  an  under- 
statement. 

Handcrafted  Homes  stand  out  in 
a  crowded  neighborhood.  "Many

builders  repeat  an  architect's  design 
over  and  over,  even  within  one 
subdivision.  It's  easier  to  repeat 
because  you've  worked  out  many  of 
the  kinks,"  Judy  said.  She  wants 
each  house  to  be  different.  Among 
the  work  that  marks  a  Handcrafted 
Home  is  extensive  rockwork. 

Lynn  Smith  has  been  doing  the 
rockwork  on  Judy's  houses  for  two 
years.  He  explained  that  various 
types  of  rock  are  ordered  from  a  local 
company.  "She  orders  lava  rock 
especially  because  it  gives  a  good 
effect  to  have  one  in  the  wall  every 
now  and  then,"  said  Lynn.  "It's  like 
putting  together  a  j  igsaw  puzzle , "  he 
said,  carefully  fitting  another  piece 
into  an  outside  wall  of  rock. 

An  onyx  and  stone  bathtub,  stone 
floors,  rock  waterfalls  and  fireplaces 
with  rocks  and  semi-precious  stones 
are  examples  of  the  rockwork  that 
graces  the  insides  of  many  of  her 
homes. 

Other  designs  include  a  hand- 
tooled  copper  and  brass  fireplace  and 
a  stone  fireplace  with  an  inlaid 
copper  design.  She  uses  stained  glass, 
hand-carved  windows,  specialty 
imported  woods,  and  hand-split 
cedar  shakes  (for  the  roof  finish). 

"Clients  usually  hire  me  because  I 
do  unusual  and  different  designs 
using  unusual  materials,"  explained 
Judy,  who  has  only  done  two  "spec" 
houses.  "Building  a  'spec'  house  is 
more  scary  because  you  speculate 
that  you  can  sell  it,"  said  Judy.  "I 
prefer  to  work  with  clients  where  I 
can  be  more  creative  in  my  design. 
It  gives  me  the  opportunity  to  try 
something  exciting." 

Judy  is  now  sole  owner,  designer 
and  builder  for  Handcrafted  Homes. 
Though  her  job  takes  up  much  of  her 
waking  hours,  Judy  is  firm  about  her 
priorities.  "My  children  are  most 
important  in  my  life.  I  make  myself 
set  up  time  with  them  so  they  are 
not  ignored." 

Her  son  Rand,  13,  and  Chelsea 
both  go  to  Westminster  Schools. 


Chelsea  has  been  going  to  work  sites 
since  she  was  two  weeks  old.  "She 
kind  of  grew  up  going  to  the  sites," 
said  Judy.  When  she's  not  at  camp, 
she  stills  goes  with  her  mom  to  the 
office  and  the  building  site.  About 
four  years  ago,  Chelsea  was  going  to 
be  a  builder,  then  a  computer  pro- 
grammer. Now  she's  going  to  be  a 
chemist.  "The  guys  (workmen)  are 
real  used  to  her.  She  used  to  take 
mud  (cement)  and  put  a  nail  or  rock 
or  something  in  it  and  sell  it  to  the 
guys  for  a  penny  or  a  nickel."  Sure 
enough,  with  her  own  creativity 
apparent,  Chelsea  soon  arrives  with 
a  "spice  cake"  made  of  styrofoam  and 
sawdust,  and  what  is  obviously 
meant  to  be  a  hot  dog,  complete  with 
ketchup  created  from  leftover  red 
wiring. 

"Besides  my  kids  and  work,  well . . . 

I  love  plants,"  said  Judy,  fishing  for 

outside  interests. 

'And  cooking,"  pipes  Chelsea. 
"Oh  yes,  I  designed  a  gourmet 

cooking  school  once  and  have  taken 

some  cooking  classes.  I  love  to  cook 

when  I  can  squeeze  it  in." 

Judy,  Rand,  Chels,  three  cats  and 

a  kitten  recently  moved,  from  Atlanta, 

to  a  new  home/office  in  Roswell.  "It's 


The  front  entrance  of  Dot  andjerry  Blum's

Mozen,  includes  a  pool.  Handcrafted

million. 


more  convenient  to  have  the  office 
below  the  house  and  near  the  build- 
ing sites,  at  least  until  I  can  build  a 
house  on  our  creek  lot  in  Boulder 
Creek,"  added  Judy.  One  of  the  cats 
caused  today's  late  arrival  on  the  site. 
"Asha  is  sick,"  she  explained.  "She's 
been  part  of  the  family  since  1  was 
at  Agnes  Scott.  I  just  couldn't  leave 
her  at  the  vet;  if  something  happens 
she  needs  to  be  at  home." 

While  Asha  was  this  morning's 
concern,  the  placement  and  size  of 
the  water  heaters  for  the  house  she's 
currently  working  on  in  Boulder 
Creek  occupied  much  of  her  time 
away  from  the  site  and  office  yester- 
day. "I  can't  stand  to  go  into  the 
kitchen  and  have  to  wait  for  hot 
water,"  Judy  tells  the  plumber, 
discussing  the  water  heaters.  To  me, 
she  adds,  "I  build  a  house  as  though 
I  were  going  to  live  in  it."  To  the 
workmen,  'And  watch  that  crawl- 
space,  I'm  not  going  to  have  freezing 
pipes  in  this  house.  "D

Forever 


Let's  assume,  young  lady, "  Billy 
Bryan  Burns  was  saying,  "that 
neither  one  of  us  had  the  atomic 
humb,  and  let's  assume  that  the  Rus- 
sians have  twice  as  many  human  beings 
as  we  do  and  the  Chinese  have  three  or 
four  times  the  amount  of  human  beings 
we  do.  What  is  the  deterrent  to  war? 
How  do  we  defend  ourselves?  Do  we 
negotiate  from  weakness?"  He  smiled 
broadly,  a  father-knows-hest  kind  of 
smile.  "Without  the  bomb,  I  think  we 
ivould  be  in  a  terrible,  terrible  position, " 
he  went  on.  "If  we  can  keep  from 
making  a  mistake,  I  think  it's  the 
greatest  thing  we've  ever  had  in  the 
whole  world. " 

"But  where  are  we  heading, 
Daddy?"  his  little  girl,  Dottie, 
answered.  She  ivas  Dorothy  Burns 
Douglas  now,  46,  married  and  the 
mother  of  two,  but  she  was  still  his  little 
girl 

"We're  not  going  anywhere,  Dottie, 
honey, "  Bill;y  said.  "We're  going  to  stay 
static,  li(ine\,  in  this  position  of  no  war, 
until  hopefully  the  United  States  finds 
some  way  to  neutralize  communism. " 


110  FALL  1985 


They  sat  over  lunch  at  a  handsome 
country  club  in  North  Carolina, 
talking  seriously  about  the  bomb  for 
practically  the  first  time  since  she 
was  in  high  school.  His  mood  had 
been  expansive,  seating  his  guests  at 
his  table.  His  white  Eldorado  was  out 
on  the  lot,  and  his  navy  blazer,  his 
Kelly  green  pants  and  his  golf-course 
tan  fairly  radiated  money  and  ease. 
He  moved  about  the  club  with  the 
assurance  of  a  man  who  owned  the 
place,  as,  fractionally,  he  did;  he  and 
Helen  Burns  were  building  their 
dream  home  on  the  grounds  for  his 
retirement.  But  a  summer  luncheon 
of  fruit  salad  and  iced  coffee  went 
half  noticed  between  father  and 
daughter  in  the  intensity  of  their 
family  quarrel.  They  had  become 
America  debating  across  the  divide 
between  the  generations  and  the 
sexes,  talking  about  how  much 
longer  the  world  would  sur\'ive  the 
bomb. 

Forever  was  Billy  Bryan  Burns's 
guess,  when  he  thought  about  the 
subject  at  all.  Mostly,  if  he  could 
avoid  it,  he  did  not.  Ho  had  loaded 


the  first  primiti\e  A-bombs,  waved 
them  off  for  Hiroshima  and  Nagasaki 
and  thought  little  more  about  them 
than  that  they  were  his  ticket  home. 
He  reckoned  long  afterward  that  he 
might  have  gone  crazy  if  he  had  seen 
the  mushroom  clouds,  but  he  hadn't, 
and  if  he  had  had  nightmares  about 
the  war  on  his  return,  as  his  wife  and 
daughter  said,  he  did  not  remember 
them.  Sometimes  he  wondered  why 
he  didn't  feel  guilty  about  what  the 
bomb  had  done.  Sometimes  he 
thought  he  should  feel  guilty  for  not 
feeling  guilty. 

He  had  had  other  things  on  his 
mind  in  the  years  after  the  war;  he 
had  been  too  busy  seeking  his  for- 
tune, and  to  his  way  of  thinking,  the 
bomb  had  made  the  world  safe  for 
him  and  people  like  him  to  do  so. 
His  generation  had  come  back  feeling 
good  about  the  country  and  them- 
selves and  had  created  more  wealth, 
raised  more  houses,  fathered  more 
babies  and  realized  the  American

dream  more  times  over  than  any  in 
our  history.  Billy  still  telt  a  tingle  just 
thinking  about  all  the  men  he 
knew  — guys  he  had  grown  up  with 
in  South  Florida  — who  had  gotten 
rich  after  the  war. 

He  was  one  of  them,  a  millionaire 
at  66.  He  had  started  with  a  $7,000 
nest  egg  and  a  correspondence  school 
certificate  in  general  insurance,  and 
had  pyramided  them  into  a  fortune 
in  insurance,  real  estate  and 
mortgage  lending.  He  had  had  a 
sideline  in  elective  politics  as  com- 
missioner of  the  Port  of  Palm  Beach 
for  22  years  and  was  talked  about  tor 
governor  of  Florida.  But  turning 
money  into  more  money  was  his  gift 
and  his  calling.  A  savings  and  loan 
association  he  started  in  West  Palm 
Beach  with  some  partners  was  the 
fastest  growing  in  the  nation  when  a 


larger,  wealthier  outfit  bought  them 
out.  The  millions  Billy  got  for  his 
stock  financed  his  admission  to  the 
leisure  class  but  did  not  wholly 
compensate  him  tor  the  loss  of  his 
company.  He  had  always  believed 
that  winning  was  everything,  and 
the  buyout  reconfirmed  his  corollary 
rule  — that  to  win,  you  had  to  deal 
from  strength. 

"May  I  express  my  concerns  to  you?" 
Dorothy  ivas  saying.  She  and  the 
movement  people  she  was  working  with 
had  studied  the  numbers,  "And  what's 
overwhelming, "  she  said,  "is  that  there 
are  55,000  weapons.  OK?  We  have 
about  30,000.  They  have  anywhere 
from  23,000  to  28, 000,  depending  on 
which  estimate  you  believe. " 

A  window  of  vulnerability  had 
opened  in  her  certitude,  and  Billy 


pounced.  "So  we  really  don't  know 
what  we  got  compared  to  what  they 
got, "  he  said. 

"J  think  most  people  who  are  in  the 
Pentagon  will  say  that  we  are  at  parity, " 
Dorothy  said.  "But  what  is  overwhelm- 
ing is  if  you  take  the  destntctive  power 
of  all  this.  If  you  take  the  total  air 
bombardment  of  World  War  U,  all 
sides  — what  we  dropped,  England 
dropped,  Germany,  japan  — it  equals 
about  3  million  tons  of  TNT.  We  have 
in  the  arsenals  of  the  nuclear  nations 
more  than  6,000  World  War  Us.  One 
Poseidon  submarine  is  equal  to  three 
Worki  War  Us  — one  little  Poseidon. 
And  the  new  Trident  —  one  Trident  will 
have  85  megatons  of  destructive  power, 
equal  to  25  World  War  Us.  And  the 
Russians  are  doing  the  same  thing.  If 
we  build  three  weapons  a  day  and  they 
build  three  weapons  a  day,  when  is  it

"Honey,  we're  trying  toax'oid  war, " 
Bi//\  .said.  "That's  the  point. "  The  ice 
cubes  were  melting  into  the  coffee. 
"Now  look.  Dottie  —  Russia  is  trying  to 
spread  its  communistic  philosophy 
throughout  the  world.  Do  you  think  they 
can  spread  that  philosophy  from  a 
position  of  military  weakness!  No.

have  a  chance  to  negotiate  with  those 
people.  The  same  thmg  is  true  with 
Russia. " 

"You're  saying  we're  in  a  psychologi- 
cal war  — is  that  what  you're  saying?" 
Dorotlw  pressed.  "If  that's  true,  where 
do  you  think  xce're  going  to  be  in  the 
year  2000?" 

Dorothy  Douglas  worried  a  lot 
about  the  year  2000.  She  won- 
dered whether  there  would  he 
one.  She  and  her  daughter,  Laurelyn, 
now  17,  were  watching  the  news  one 
evenmg  a  tev\-  years  ago  and  heard 
Adm.  Hvman  Rickover,  the  god- 
father ot  atomic  submarines,  guess 
bleakly  that  there  was  going  to  be  a 
nuclear  war  someday.  Laurelyn,  in 
her  bathrobe,  had  looked  at  Dorothy 
with  searching  hazel  eyes.  She  wasn't 
sure  she  wanted  to  grow  up  and  ha\'e 
children  ot  her  own,  she  said.  She 
was  too  frightened  ot  the  bomb. 
Dorothy's  commitment  to  the 
peace  movement,  already  begun, 
deepened  thereafter  into  a  fixation; 
she  was  fighting  so  hard  to  save  the 
future  tor  her  children  that,  for  a 
time,  thev  felt  shut  out  ot  the  present. 
She  had  herself  come  of  age  without 
thinking  much  about  nuclear 
weapons,  accepting  on  faith  — her 
daddy's  faith,  really  —  that  they  were 
an  insurance  policy  against  war.  She 
was  an  all-around  girl  in  high  school, 
class  president,  prom  queen  and 
leading  lady  in  a  school  play;  the  age 


ot  anxiety  tor  her  centered  on 
whether  Ruddy  Reynolds,  better 
known  in  later  years  as  Burt,  would 
notice  her  on  his  visits  with  a  girl  he 
was  dating  across  the  street.  Her 
social  conscience  deepened  in  her 
years  at  Agnes  Scott  College  in 
Decatur,  Ga. ,  studying,  she  thought 
then,  to  become  a  doctor  and  witnes- 
sing the  flowering  of  the  civil-rights 
movement.  She  met  Martin  Luther 
King  Jr.  and  Bobby  Kennedy,  and, 
from  a  girlfriend's  house,  watched 
Bobby's  brother  Jack  walking  on  the 
beach  in  front  ot  his  family's  winter 
compound;  she  let  her  schoolwork 
go  hang  while  she  worked  for  his 
election. 

He  nearly  outli\'ed  her.  She  fell  ill 
the  year  Kennedy  won  the  presi- 
dency; she  was  hoarse  and  tired,  and 
her  hands  turned  purple  as  if  she  were 
cold.  The  first  guess  was  mononucle- 
osis. The  next,  and  more  ominous, 
was  scleroderma,  a  mysterious  and 
sometimes  life-threatening  malady 
attacking  both  the  skin  and  the 
internal  organs.  Dorothy  spent  much 
of  her  senior  year  in  the  infirmary, 
getting  weaker,  and  most  of  the 
summer  afterward  in  the  metabolic- 
disease  unit  at  the  National  Institutes 
of  Health  in  Bethesda,  Md.  Her 
roommate  had  been  a  contender  for 
Miss  America;  the  room  was  filled 
with  the  scent  ot  roses  left  by  the 
young  woman's  suitors,  and  with  the 
possibility  ot  her  death. 

The  siege  was  an  education  for 
Dorothy  at  21  in  the  coiitingencv  of 
life,  one  that  did  not  end  with  her 
discharge;  it  could  not  be  said  tor 
certain  then  whether  she  had  two 
years  left  or  50,  and  she  found  herself 
bargaining  with  God  for  more  time. 
She  spent  a  long  introspective  pass- 
age thereafter,  a  sorting-out  period 
iif  rambling  dri\'es  in  the  country  and 
moments  of  prayer  in  wayside 
churches.  The  leaves  had  ne\er 
seemed  greener  to  her,  or  the  sound 
ot  birds  more  achingly  beautiful. 

She  was  only  just  re-entering  lite, 
studying  microbiology  at  the  Unix-er- 


sity  ot  Florida,  when  Moscow  im- 
planted its  missiles  in  Cuba  and  the 
superpowers  edged  toward  the  brink 
ot  nuclear  war.  Dorothy  trusted 
Kennedy  but  she  was  frightened,  and 
she  headed  south  in  her  black  Volks- 
wagen, drixnng  closer  to  the  missiles, 
to  be  with  her  parents.  They  waited 
together,  and  one  night  near  the  end 
the  three  ot  them  drove  up  the  coast 
to  a  quiet  place  where  Billy  had  often 
taken  Dorothy  fishing  in  her  girl- 
hood. The  sky  was  clear  and  starry. 
They  nosed  their  boat  up  the  Inter- 
coastal  Waterway  and  out  onto  an 
inlet;  then  they  cut  the  lights, 
dropped  the  anchor  and  fished  in  the 
still  waters  with  a  radio  plaving  soft 
music  in  the  background.  "This 
could  be  the  end,"  Dorothy  thought. 
"This  could  be  the  last  music  I'll  e\er 
hear."  Billy  was  strong.  That  night, 
the  Russians  backed  off. 

"/  really  hope, "  Billy  was  saying, 
"and  I  think  most  people  hope,  that 
we'll  find  some  way  to  neutrali::e  the 
atomic  weapon.  That's  our  only  hope. 
We're  not  going  to  negotiate  with  the 
Russians.  It's  not  to  their  adxantage. " 

"Well,  why  not?"  Dorothy  asked. 
"They  want  to  survive  like  we  do. " 

"Listen, "  Billy  said,  "they  do  not  put 
the  same  price  tag  on  life  as  you  do  or 
1  do.  Vou'i'e  got  to  understand  that. 
Different  philosophies  of  different 
people.  Life  to  them  n\ay  not  be  nearly 
as  important  as  it  is  to  you.  basically 
because  you  enjoy  life  more.  Your 
stantlirJ  of  lamg  is  so  much  higher  You 
weigh  that  against  your  other  advan- 
tages, and  they're  not  going  to  negotiate. 
They  aren't  going  to  gi'ie  up  their 
primary  position,  which  they  have. " 

"What  difference  does  it  really  make 
how  many  we  have  and  how  many  they 
have  anyway?"  Dorothy  asked.  She 
produced  more  arginnent.s,  more  num- 
bers, and  ivas  getting  nouhere.  Bi//\ 
had  begun  stealing  glimpses  at  his 
u'uteh.  She  had  sent  him  some  papers 
a  couple  of  years  before,  but  he  hadn't 
read  them,  preferring  the  harder-line 
liews  of  his  Air  Force  journal. 


112  FALL  1985 


"You  have  got  to  be  in  a  position  of 
strength, "  Billy  continued.  Dottie  didn't 
understand,  having  never  run  a  com- 
pany or  met  a  payroll;  she  thought 
geopolitics  was  like  a  marital  problem, 
something  you  could  sit  down  and  talk 
out,  when  it  was  in  fact  more  like 
business.  "If  you  have  a  million  dollars 
and  I  have  a  million  dollars, "  he  said, 
"neither  one  of  us  has  the  advantage, 
but  we  have  a  chance  to  talk  about  it. 
If  you  have  2  million  and  I  have  I 
million,  you  are  going  to  dominate. " 

The  bond  between  father  and 
daughter  was  strong,  sometimes 
almost  too  enfolding.  Billy  was 
a  tender  and  vulnerable  man  under 
his  leathery  hide  and  did  not  easily 
look  pain  in  the  eye;  he  had  had  a 
hard  time  visiting  Dorothy  in  the 
hospital  when  it  looked  as  if  she 
might  be  dying,  and  a  hard  time 
again  accepting  her  marriage,  fearing 
that  he  might  lose  her.  She  had  met 
John  Douglas  at  Duke  University, 
where  she  was  pursuing  her  graduate 
work  in  neuro-anatomy,  and  he  was 
a  fellow  in  cardiology.  They  dated 
and,  in  the  spring  of  1967,  were 
married.  Billy  was  unhappy. 

Dorothy  bore  a  daughter  and  a  son 
quickly,  13  months  apart,  and, 
suspending  her  own  ambitions, 
settled,  into  the  comfortable  life  of  a 
doctor's  wife.  She  followed  John's 
peregrinations  to  teaching  hospitals 
m  San  Antonio,  Little  Rock,  New 
Zealand  and  finally  in  Johnson  City, 
Tenn. ,  where  he  became  chief  of 
cardiology  at  East  Tennessee  State 
University's  new  medical  school.  Her 
family  became  her  career  and  what 
energies  she  had  left  over  were  de- 
voted to  the  civic  pursuits  of  the 
upper  middle  class:  the  arts  council, 
the  repertory  theater,  the  Montessori 
school  board,  the  League  of  Women 
Voters.  In  San  Antonio,  she  had 
worried  about  the  SAC  bombers 
flying  low  in  and  out  of  Kelly  Air 
Force  Base  with  their  nukes,  right 
over  her  head;  in  New  Zealand,  she 
had  watched  demonstrators  in  boats 


splash  a  Poseidon  submarine  with 
yellow  paint  and  had  mainly  felt 
sorry  for  the  sailors.  But  she  did  not 
engage  with  the  subject  until  the 
night  her  friend  Betty  Bumpers 
called  from  Washington  and  asked, 
"Dorothy,  how  do  you  feel  about 
nuclear  war?" 

The  two  of  them  had  met  during 
Dorothy's  years  in  Little  Rock,  when 
Betty's  husband.  Dale,  was  governor 
of  Arkansas.  Their  common  interest 
then  lay  in  programs  promoting  the 
arts,  the  sort  of  good  work  thought 
more  suitable  to  First  Ladies  and  to 
doctors'  wives  than  worrying  about 
the  bomb.  But  Betty  was  worrying 
about  it  and  was  organizing  a  new 
group  called  Peace  Links  to  educate 
people  to  prevent  nuclear  war— a 
women's  group,  because  women  were 
less  wedded  than  men  to  violence. 
Dorothy  was  drawn  along  by  Betty's 
passion,  and  the  night  her  own 
Laurelyn  talked  about  not  wanting 
to  bring  children  in  to  a  world 
afflicted  with  the  bomb,  her  conver- 
sion to  the  cause  became  total  —  so 
total  that  it  crowded  practically 
everything  else  out  of  her  life. 

Her  first  reaction  was  to  read 
everything,  on  all  sides  of  the  subject, 
as  if  it  were  her  doctorate  she  was 
working  on  and  not  the  future  of  the 
world.  She  guessed  later  that  her 
research  had  been  a  way  to  avoid 
doing  anything,  a  last  vestige  of  a 
lifetime  of  denial  that  anything  was 
fundamentally  wrong.  The  house 
was  littered  with  her  books, 
magazines  and  learned  journals,  and 
the  TV  stayed  tuned  to  cable  news 
deep  into  the  night;  every  crisis 
seemed  to  her  seeded  with  the  poten- 
tial for  nuclear  war.  At  a  second 
stage,  knowledge  led  to  despair,  at 
the  sheer  scale  of  the  problem  and  at 
the  difficulty  of  getting  anyone  in 
Johnson  City  beyond  the  hounds  of 
the  university  campus  to  take  her 
seriously.  She  worked  the  phone  for 
hours,  and  even  when  the  answers 
were  friendly,  a  sense  of  futility 


sometimes  came  over  her.  This  is 
impossible,  she  thought  more  than 
once;  she  was  a  Tennessee  housewife 
mixing  in  the  business  of  superpower 
politics,  talking  to  other  housewives 
about  MlRV's  and  Tridents  and  the 
cosmic  questions  of  war  and  peace. 

For  a  passage  of  six  months  or  so, 
her  household  suffered  from  her  work 
and  her  moods.  "Mom,  we  wish  you 
wouldn't  do  this,"  her  son,  Glenn, 
now  16,  told  her  once;  until  she 
explained  that  she  was  doing  it  all 
for  them,  he  and  Laurelyn  were 
jealous  of  the  movement  and  dis- 
turbed at  being  asked  at  school  if 
their  mom  was  a  communist.  Her 
marriage  was  tested  as  well.  The 
phone  bills  were  running  to  $300  a 
month,  and  the  table  talk  had  to  do 
with  the  folly  of  mutual  assured 
destruction,  illustrated  with  charts  of 
projected  deaths  in  an  exchange  of 
nuclear  weapons.  John's  appetite  for 
the  subject  was  limited,  after  a  hard 
day  on  the  cardiology  service,  and 
their  life  was  punctuated  by  the 
sound  of  slamming  doors.  "You're 
obsessed  with  this!"  he  shouted, 
fleeing  the  house.  "I  can't  stand  it!" 

But  he  found  his  own  way  into  the 
movement,  listening  to  one  of  its 
spokespersons.  Dr.  Helen  Caldicott, 
over  the  car  radio  one  day;  she 
seemed  to  be  speaking  to  him,  doctor 
to  doctor,  and  when  he  got  home, 
he  asked  Dorothy,  "What  should  I 
do?"  In  three  months  he  had 
launched  his  own  vehicle,  a  chapter 
of  Physicians  tor  Social  Responsibil- 
ity, and  was  talking  throw  weights 
and  kill  ratios  with  his  wife.  Johnson 
City  remained  unfertile  territory, 
"the  buckle  of  the  Bible  belt,"  the 
managing  editor  of  the  local  paper 
called  it;  its  politics  wasarc/i-archcon- 
servative,  and  Dorothy  achieved  a 
certain  notoriety  in  some  parts  of 
town  as  "that  peacenik  liberal. "  But 
she  went  doggedly  on  with  her 
presentations,  perhaps  200  of  them, 
to  Kiwanises  and  Junior  Leagues  and 
garden  clubs  — anyone  willing  to

On  Her  Terms 


by  Faye  Goolnck 


At  16,  Jean  Hoeter  Toal  '65, 
daughter  of  a  politically 
active  South  Carolina  family, 
sat  on  the  platform  with  John  F. 
Kennedy  as  he  gave  a  campaign 
address  on  the  Colimihia  State 
House  grounds.  When  his  opponent, 
Richard  M.  Nixon,  came  to  town 
shortly  thereafter,  the  young  Jean 
again  had  a  hird's-eye  view  — this 
time  from  the  limbs  of  a  nearby  tree. 
That  Jean  Hoefer  Toal  was  inter- 
ested in  politics  from  tree-climbing 
age  should  come  as  no  surprise.  At 
42,  she  is  a  well-established  Colum- 
bia lawyer  and  unquestionably  one  ot 
the  most  influential  state  representa- 
tives in  the  South  Carolina  General 
Assembly  (D-Richland).  And  like 
many  women  ot  her  generation,  a 
litany  ot  "firsts"  seems  to  have  accom- 
panied her  every  move:  first  woman 
in  South  Carolina  history  to  chair  a 
standing  committee  of  the  House 
(the  House  Rules  Committee),  first 
woman  to  serve  on  the  House 
Judiciary  Committee,  first  woman 
partner  in  her  law  firm.  She  is  con- 
sidered a  likely  candidate  to  become 
the  first  woman  judge  on  the  South 
Carolina  Supreme  Court.  In  the  next 
tew  months,  her  successful  career  as 
a  trial  lawyer  will  reach  a  new  mile- 
stone as  she  argues  her  first  case 
before  the  U.S.  Supreme  Court. 
Yet  Toal,  a  small,  open-coun- 
tenanced woman  who  radiates  self- 
confidence  and  energy,  takes  all  the 
accolades  in  stride.  Tilking  earnestly 


in  her  law  office  on  Columbia's  Lady 
Street,  only  a  short  walk  from  the 
Capitol  dome,  she  neither  denies  nor 
demurs  when  asked  about  her  ac- 
complishments. Instead,  she  offers 
a  straightforward  assessment  ot  who 
she  is  and  why  she  does  what  she 
does. 

"1  find  that  for  a  lot  of  women,  the 
only  real  barriers  to  doing  what  I'm 
doing  — or  [to  being]  whatever  it  is 
they  want  to  be  —  are  their  own  atti- 
tudes about  whether  they  can  do  it," 
she  says,  speaking  in  a  husky,  distinc- 
tively Southern  accent.  "There  isn't 
any  question  that  there  are  still 
barriers  to  the  entry  ot  women  in  all 
professions,  barriers  that  are  not  ot 
women's  making.  But  there  are  equal 
barriers  that  are  ot  women's  making, 
that  have  to  do  with  their  own  levels 
of  expectations  about  themselves." 

Ob\-iously,  Toal's  expectations  ot 
herself  are  high  indeed.  At  Agnes 
Scott,  she  majored  in  philosophy. 


honed  her  skills  on  the  College 
debate  team,  and  increasingly  found 
herself  drawn  to  the  pressing  issue  of 
the  day,  racial  integration.  "This  was 
a  very  political  time  tor  young 
people, "  she  recalls.  "There  was  the 
election,  with  Lyndon  Johnson 
versus  Barry  Goldwater.  And  there 
was  the  beginning  of  exchange 
programs  with  Spelman  [and  other 
black  colleges]  through  a  U.S.  Na- 
tional Students  Association  program 
called  'the  Southern  Project.'"  Toal 
participated  in  this  summer  study 
group  in  1964,  with  her  parents' 
reluctant  permission.  Looking  back, 
she  characterizes  her  ci\il  rights 
activism  as  "not  nearly  as  dramatic 
as  some  students'.  But  tor  a  Southern 
child,  it  was  a  very  heavy  invoK'e- 
ment,"  she  adds.  "I  was  meeting  with 
black  people  and  gomg  to  interracial 
meetings,  participating  in  voter 
registration,  and  atone  time,  picket- 
ing. It  was  pretty  hold  stuft  tor  a 
Southern  person." 

Though  T^al  remains  an  active 
alumna  and  tirm  supporter  ot  the 
College,  she  is  quick  to  point  out 
that  in  the  mid  '60s,  expectations  tor 
women  students  were  much  different 
from  those  tor  men.  Ambitious 
career  guidance,  tor  example,  was 
one  shortcoming  in  an  Agnes  Scott 

Faye  Goolrick  hails  from  Jersey,  Ga.,  (near 
Social  Circle),  and  is  a  1*^73  graduate  of 
Hollins  College.  Her  full  time  is  taken 
between  daughter  Allie,  3,  and  her  freelance 
writing  career.

education.  "When  I  graduated  from 
Scott  with  a  history  ot  interest  in 
politics  and  involvement  in  it,  there 
was  no  real  guidance  or  direction  at 
school  about  the  law  as  a  career,"  she 
says.  While  enrolled  in  Agnes  Scott, 
she  took  a  course  in  constitutional 
law  at  Emory;  when  she  decided  to 
take  the  LSAT  (the  law  school 
admittance  test),  she  obtained  her 
information  and  enrollment  forms 
from  Emory  because  she  couldn't 
locate  the  necessary  materials  at  her 
own  college. 

In  law  school  at  the  University  of 
South  Carolina  a  year  later,  Toal 
found  herself  one  of  four  women  in 
a  class  of  130.  When  she  began 
practicing  law  in  1968,  there  were 
only  about  40  women  attorneys  in 
the  state  of  South  Carolina.  "Of  that 
number,  10  were  no  longer  in  active 
practice,  and  only  two  had  ever  tried 
a  jury  case,"  she  says. 

Law  school  brought  other  rewards 
as  well.  Not  only  did  Toal  earn  grades 
high  enough  to  position  her  as  an 
editor  of  the  school's  law  review,  but 
she  also  established  a  strong  and 
enduring  "support  group"  of  law 
school  friends  — all  men  — that  in- 
cluded her  future  husband,  fellow 
student  (and  law  review  editor) 
William  T.  Toal.  The  couple  married 
in  1967.  After  law  school  and  two 
years  of  working  in  Greenville, 
S.C.,— Jean  with  a  large  law  firm 
and  Bill  as  a  law  clerk  for  a  U.S. 
Court  of  Appeals  judge  — the  Toals 
returned  to  their  native  Columbia. 
Within  a  few  years,  both  Toals  were 
partners  in  Columbia  law  firms:  Bill 
with  Johnson,  Toal  &  Battiste,  and 
Jean  with  Belser,  Baker,  Barwick, 
Ravenel,  Toal  &  Bender. 

In  1974,  Jean  Tsal's  strong  pre- 
dilection toward  politics  took  a 
concrete  form:  she  decided  to  run  on 
the  Democratic  ticket  for  state  repre- 
sentative. Her  opponent,  the  incum- 
bent Republican,  was  her  old  junior 
high  school  principal  and  civics 
teacher.  Running  — and  winning  — 
was  an  exhilarating,  terrifying  event. 


"For  women  in  particular,  and  par- 
ticularly the  first  time  you  run,  you're 
almost  taking  your  heart  in  your 
hands,"  she  says.  "It's  a  real  bold 
step.  I  don't  care  if  you  do  have  the 
kind  of  political  support  group  1 
had  — that  first  decision  to  put 
yourself  on  the  line,  throw  your  name 
in  the  ring,  is  a  mighty  hard  decision 
for  most  women  to  make."  With  a 
daughter,  Jean,  then  3,  and  a  career 
as  a  trial  lawyer,  Tjal  seemingly  faced 
unusual  hardship  in  making  the 
commitment. 

From  that  first  race  onward,  how- 
ever, Jean  Toal's  political  savvy  has 
become  more  and  more  apparent  — 
and  more  formidable.  Possessed  of  a 
sharp  legal  mind  and  a  brash,  tena- 
cious talent  for  negotiation  — two 
characteristics  recognized  by  her 
admirers  and  opponents  alike  —  Toal 
has  taken  on  such  legislative  tasks  as 
pushing  for  a  merit-based  Public 
Service  Commission  and  changing 
the  parliamentary  rules  of  the  Gen- 
eral Assembly  to  restrict  prolonged 
debate  on  the  House  and  Senate 
floors. 

She  has  not,  she  points  out, 
concentrated  on  or  limited  herself  to 
what  are  usually  perceived  as 
women's  issues,  even  though,  as  an 
Equal  Rights  Amendment  supporter, 
she  served  as  floor  leader  for  the  ERA 
when  it  was  brought  to  the  vote  in 
South  Carolina.  (It  was  unsuccess- 
ful. )  And  in  what  seems  a  contradic- 
tion to  some  South  Carolina  femi- 
nists, she  has  repeatedly  introduced 
resolutions  urging  South  Carolina  to 
support  a  "human  life"  — anti- 
abortion  —  amendment  to  the  U.S. 
Constitution.  She  is  a  devout 
Catholic. 

The  daughter  of  an  Irish  Catholic 
mother  and  a  German  Catholic 
father,  Toal  clearly  relishes  the  more 
expansive,  ebullient  side  of  the 
stereotypical  Irish  temperament.  She 
can  hold  her  own  in  the  saltiest  of 
conversations,  hobnob  convivially 
with  her  legislative  cronies  over 
drinks  at  a  local  bar,  and  generally 


make  her  wishes  known  in  no  uncer- 
tain terms.  In  the  political  sphere, 
these  attributes,  though  occasionally 
aggravating  to  those  who  disagree 
with  her,  have  earned  her  a  stature 
few  women  ever  attain.  In  a  world 
peopled  with  "good  ol'  boys,"  she  is 
not  only  respected;  she  is  obviously 
well-liked. 

These  days,  T:)al  has  her  mind  on 
more  than  legislative  issues.  The 
legislature,  in  session  from  early 
January  to  mid-June,  is  over  for  this 
year,  and  more  imminent  problems 
loom.  The  U.S.  Supreme  Court,  for 
example.  As  counsel  for  the  Catawba 
Indian  tribe  of  South  Carolina,  Toal 
argued  successfully  before  the  U.S. 
Court  of  Appeals  that  the  Indians 
have  a  valid  claim  to  some  144,000 
acres  of  land  in  and  around  Rock 
Hill,  S.C.  The  state,  not  surpris- 
ingly, appealed  so  vast  and  far- 
reaching  a  claim.  "We're  talking 
about  probably  two  billion  dollars' 
worth  of  property!"  says  Toal.  The 
third-largest  Eastern  Indian  claim  in 
the  nation,  the  case  should  go  before 
the  Supreme  Court  in  late  1985  or 
early  1986. 

For  Toal,  displaying  her  litigator's 
skills  before  the  highest  court  in  the 
land  is  merely  one  more  notch  in  an 
already  distinguished  career.  Now 
the  mother  of  two  — Lilla,  4,  was  a 
"joyful  surprise"  in  her  mother's  37th 
year  —  Tbal  recognizes  that  she  is  one 
of  the  lucky  few  who  may  well  "have 
it  all."  Characteristically,  she  is  frank 
about  pulling  it  off.  She  has  a  full- 
time  housekeeper;  her  older  daugh- 
ter, Jean,  is  13  now  and  more  inde- 
pendent. But,  she  adds,  in  the  end, 
"Sometimes  I  manage  it  well,  and 
sometimes  I  don't.  No  one  always 
manages  everything  just  as  she  wants 
to.  But  anybody  who  does  a  lot  of 
things,  male  or  female,  would  say 
what  I  say:  You  have  to  have  a  very, 
very  supportive  family  and  a  suppor- 
tive group  of  friends. "  Fortunately  for 
Toal  and  the  South  Carolina  voters 
who  re-elect  her  term  after  term,  she 
has  both.  D

Traditional  elegance  and  modern, 
practical  innovation.  The  un- 
likely pair  has  come  together 
brilliantly  on  the  Agnes  Scott  cam- 
pus with  the  renovation  of  Jennie  D. 
Inman  Hall.  Formally  unveiled  to 
the  College  community  and  Alum- 
nae Leadership  Conference  m  a 
Sept.  20  open  house,  Inman  Hall 
was  completed  Sept.  6  and  is  home 
to  89  students  this  year. 
And  a  grand  home  it  is. 
Working  from  the  outside-in, 
architects  and  interior  design  special- 
ists have  maintained  Inman's  turn- 
of-the-centur>'  grace  and  beauty, 
while  bringing  the  building  com- 
pletely in  line  with  the  most  modern 
of  standards. 


Built  in  1910  at  a  cost  of  $50,000 
and  dedicated  in  1911,  Jennie  D. 
Inman  Hall  was  considered  a  gitt  to 
the  College  from  Samuel  Martin 
Inman,  chairman  of  the  Board  of 
Trustees  from  1903-1914,  and  was 
named  in  memory  of  his  first  wife. 

Natural  wood  wainscoting,  com- 
plemented by  wallcoverings  in  muted 
shades  of  rose,  mauve,  terra-cotta 
and  green  add  interest  to  the  19-foot- 
high  walls  in  the  main  lobby. 
Wallcoverings  on  each  floor  have 
different  patterns  — variations  on 
the  same  classic  color  schemes. 
Period  furniture  has  been  refur- 
bished, artwork  has  been  reframed 
and  "new"  period  furnishings,  light 


fixtures  and  other  accents  have  been 
purchased  or  acquired  through  dona- 
tions to  complete  the  overall  effect. 
Custom-designed  area  rugs  on  the 
hardwood  floors  pull  the  look 
together. 

Henry  Jova,  founding  partner  of 
Jova/Daniels/Busby  Architects, 
which  handled  the  interior  aspects 
of  the  restoration  project,  notes  that 


the  end  result  is  elegant  and  formal, 
yet  colorful,  cheerful  and  comfort- 
able. "Walking  into  the  lobby,"  Jova 
says,  "you  get  the  feeling  that  you 
might  be  walking  into  the  living 
room  of  someone's  aunt." 

Built-in  lofts  in  the  first-floor 
rooms  allow  residents  to  separate 
living  space  from  sleeping  space, 
creating  a  more  home-like  atmos- 
phere. Windows  are  fitted  with 
Levolor  blinds.  Kitchens  on  each 
floor  have  been  renovated  as  well, 
and  feature  modern  appliances  and 
fixtures. 

The  attic  atop  the  three-story 
building,  formerly  used  for  storage, 
has  been  converted  to  a  study  area 
for  residents,  with  34  individual 
carrels. 

The  $1.6  million  project,  begun 
in  fall  1984,  was  the  first  part  of  an 
$18.75-million  master  renovation 
plan  for  the  College,  scheduled  to  be 
completed  by  fall  1989,  the  College's 
centennial  year.  Other  projects 
already  completed  include  the  crea- 
tion of  a  terrace  dining  facility  on 


■  18  FALL  1985 


the  lower  level  of  the  dining  hall, 
and  the  relocation  ot  the  campus 
store  and  post  office  facility,  with  a 
newly  built  sunken  plaza  pedestrian 
entranceway  and  an  elevator  and 
underground  tunnel  service  en- 
tranceway. The  master  plan  calls  for 
the  renovation  of  Agnes  Scott 
(Main)  Hall  and  Rehekah  Hall,  the 
addition  of  an  athletic  track  and  field 
and  construction  of  a  new  student 
activity  center,  which  will  be  the 
largest  building  on  campus.  A  new 
energy  management  system  will 
provide  state-of-the-art  energy  effi- 
ciency, and  substantial  site  work  and 
landscaping  will  provide  the  finish- 
ing touches.  Several  of  these  projects 
are  already  in  progress.  The  renova- 
tions are  being  funded  by  bonds 
issued  last  January. 

Notes  Vice  President  of  Business 
Affairs  Gerald  O.  Whittington,  "We 
were  trying  to  preserve  Inman's 
Victorian  elegance  while  making  the 
building  as  inhabitable  and  as  safe  as 
modern  standards  could  allow."  The 
project  was  unquestionably  success- 
ful. "There  is  no  residence  hall  in 
the  country  like  it,"  concludes 
Whittington.  "We're  very  proud 
of  Inman." 

Agnes  Scott  held  a  formal  rededi- 
cation  ceremony  for  Jennie  D.  Inman 
Hall,  Oct.  II,  1985,  at  2:30  p.m.

give  her  and  her  comrades  against 
arms  the  time  of  day.  She  carried 
charts  and  films  with  her,  and,  as 
audio-visual  aids,  a  metal  bucket  and 
6,000  BB's;  she  would  hold  the 
bucket  up  to  the  microphone  and 
drop  the  BB's  into  it,  one  by  one, 
making  her  point  about  the  destruc- 
tive force  of  the  world's  nuclear 
arsenal  adding  up  to  6,000  World 
War  lis.  The  U'chunk-k' chunk,  greatly 
amplified,  was  maddening  and  was 
meant  to  be.  "Stop  it,  that's  enough!" 
a  women  cried  at  one  performance. 
That  was  precisely  Dorothy's 
message. 

She  sustained  herself  with  the 
feeling,  or  the  wish,  that  the  move- 
ment was  growing  — that  it  would 
number  in  the  millions  some  not  too 
distant  day,  enough  to  move  moun- 
tains or  even  governments.  But  her 
own  daddy  remained  beyond  the 
reach  of  her  persuasive  powers.  She 
brought  a  second  packet  of  papers  to 
their  luncheon  at  his  club,  hoping 
he  would  read  them  and  unsurprised 
to  hear  afterward  that  he  had  not; 
he  confessed  the  next  time  they  met 
that  he  had  been  playing  golf  instead. 
She  didn't  have  the  heart  to  push 
him.  He  was  a  compassionate  man, 
she  knew  that;  he  had  even  quit 
fishing  because  he  couldn't  stand 
killing  fish.  But  she  suspected  that 
it  was  painful  for  him  to  look  too 
hard  at  the  subject  of  the  bomb,  and 
something  protective  in  her  held  her 
back;  she  could  not  bear  to  cause  her 
daddy  pain. 


"Du  you  really  think  we  can  win  if 


re  s  a  niic

?" 


"If  you  want  to  play  the  game, "  Billy 
was  saying,  "you've  got  to  have  the 
marbles.  If  you  don  t  have  the  marbles, 
you  can't  play.  They've  got  marbles  and 
we've  got  marbles.  No  one  knoivs  who's 
got  the  most  marbles. " 

"Say  we're  about  eqiuil, "  Dorothy 
said,  trying  again. 

"Let  me  say  this, "  Billy  said,  glancing 
at  his  watch  again.  "When  the  stakes 
are  so  high,  you  don't  guess,  because 
the  risk  is  too  high. " 


"No,  1  don't  believe  anybody  can 
win,  Dottie,  honey,  but  there  are  people 
in  the  Pentagon  working  to  prevent  that 
from  happening.  I  just  don't  think  you 
can  take  the  risk  of  believing  that  we 
are  too  strong. " 

"But  you  can  take  the  risk  of  nuclear 
war?"  Dorothy  said. 

They  were  getting  nowhere,  two 
people  armored  in  certainty  and 
restrained  by  love.  Billy  Burns  was 
Dorothy's  Rosetta  stone,  his  resis- 
tance a  code  to  be  cracked;  if  she 
could  reach  him,  she  would  have 
mastered  the  language  of  a  genera- 
tion—the generation  that  had 
brought  the  bomb  into  the  world  40 
years  ago.  But  she  could  not  bring 
herself  to  press  too  hard,  and  he 
could  not  be  moved.  He  liked  her 
fighting  spirit,  the  kind  of  attitude, 
he  thought,  that  makes  millionaires; 
he  wished  in  hindsight  that  she  had 
come  into  the  family  business.  Dottie 
was  an  idealist,  he  thought,  and  he 
was  a  realist;  she  saw  the  bomb  as 
destructive  of  life,  where  he  saw  it  as 
saving  lives. 

Their  conversation  was  moving  in 
circles  when  they  finally  suspended 
it.  Dorothy  forced  her  papers  on 
Billy;  he  dutifully  carried  them  out 
to  his  Eldorado  and  waved  goodbye. 
"Dottie,  1  don't  want  you  to  change 
my  mind,"  he  told  her.  His  case  for 
the  defense  rested  on  the  historic  fact 
that  the  planet  had  survived  the  first 
40  years  of  the  atomic  age.  But 
certainty  had  died  as  a  condition  of 
existence  at  Hiroshima  at  8:15  on 
the  morning  of  Aug.  6,  1945,  a 
casualty  of  the  first  nuclear  weapon; 
it  became  the  lot  of  humankind  to 
live,  permanently  and  dangerously, 
with  the  bomb.  D

everything  from  peace  and  education 
to  "What  if  Women  Ruled  the 
World.'" 

At  the  torum,  Agnes  Scott  assis- 
tant professor  of  Bible  and  religion 
Deirdre  Good,  represented  the 
Southeast  Region  of  the  Episcopal 
Church,  and  at  the  UN  Conference, 
Agnes  Scott  RTC  student  Patty 
Clarke  represented  l.A.R.F. ,  the 
only  interfaith  organization  to  hold 
consultative  status  in  the  U.N.  For 
Good,  the  trip  was  a  return  to  the 
country  of  her  birth  and  childhood. 
Her  parents  served  as  missionaries  in 
Kenya. 

At  the  UN  Conference,  Good  and 


Clarke  caucused  government  dele- 
gates concerning  the  forward-looking 
strategies,  the  primary  document  of 
the  conference.  The  strategies  recom- 
mend indix'idual  and  government 
action  through  the  year  2000  to 
improve  the  lives  of  women 
worldwide. 

By  adopting  the  document,  the 
delegates  of  157  governments  called 
for 

n  affirmative  action  to  include 
women  in  policy  and  decision 
making; 

n  women  to  have  access  to  com- 
munications media  and  to  new 
technologies; 

D  research  to  take  into  account  the 
status  of  wcimen; 
CH  women's  unpaid  work  to  be  in- 


eluded  in  their  nation's  economic 

statistics; 

n  households  headed  by  single 

women  to  he  recognized  and  aided; 

D  violence  against  women  to  be 

named  and  curbed; 

D  family  planning  information  to  he 

made  available  to  all  women. 

Stalled  by  tedious  speeches  and 
political  debate  over  naming  Zionism 
and  apartheid  as  obstacles  to  women's 
progress,  the  document  seemed 
doomed  to  the  fate  of  similar  failed 
efforts  at  UN  conferences  on  women's 
issues  in  Mexico  City  in  1975  and 
Copenhagen  in  1980.  However, 
while  media  covered  the  debate,  the 
women  of  Kenya  were  talking  with 
representatives  of  dissenting  nations 
quietly,  persistently,  graciously  —  and 
effectively.  References  to  Zionism 
were  dropped,  and  the  conference 
adopted  the  document  by  consensus 
at  4:40  a.m.  on  the  final  day. 

Time  and  printing  problems  forced 
the  resolutions  to  go  to  the  UN 
General  Assembly,  which  discussed 
and  ratified  them  along  with  the 
strategies  document  at  its  regular 
meeting  in  September. 

The  diplomatic  success  demon- 
strates women's  negotiating  powers 
and  their  willingness  to  work  to- 
gether to  achieve  the  decade's  goals, 
Clarke  explains.  The  strategies 
themselves  are  important  for  recog- 
nizing the  progress  of  women  over  the 
decade,  naming  remaining  obstacles 
and  prescribing  solutions. 

The  strategies  are  also  a  key  "bar- 
gaining chip"  for  the  United  Nations 
with  its  member  nations,  Clarke 
says.  Although  developed  countries 
may  ignore  the  demands  of  the 
nations  represented  at  the  confer- 
ence, "developing  countries  are  often 
more  apt  to  want  to  be  aligned  with 
the  U. N . , "  Clarke  explains.  The  UN 
Commission  on  the  Status  of  Women 
will  monitor  adherence  to  the 
recommendations . 

"But  I  wouldn't  wait  around  for  the 
U.N.  to  enforce  itself,"  says  Good.

"That  would  be  totally  frustrating." 
For  women  of  the  United  States,  she 
says,  the  document  is  a  guide  to  local 
action  as  well. 

"One  should  use  it  to  pressure 
local  governments  for  representation 
of  women,"  Good  begins.  "Also, 
what  are  we  doing  to  educate  chil- 
dren about  some  of  the  issues  ad- 
dressed there? 

"Or  literacy  projects,"  she  adds. 
"You  don't  have  to  go  to  my  church 
in  south  Decatur  to  see  the  need  for 
literacy  projects.  That  is  exactly 
what  the  educational  parts  of  the 
forward-looking  strategies  suggest." 

Good  also  recommends  that  cur- 
ricula for  the  elementary  through 
college  ages  be  "revamped  to  include 
the  realities  of  all  women." 

Clarke  suggests  taking  seriously 
the  resources  Atlanta  has  in  women 
from  other  countries  who  are  study- 
ing here.  By  spending  time  with  such 
women  and  asking  for  their  input, 
local  women  could  "nurture  the 
diversity  of  our  city"  and  absorb  an 
international  viewpoint  without 
leaving  home. 

"We  must  encourage  international 
experiences  so  we  can  get  over  our 
need  tor  the  security  of  our  own  ideas 
and  ways  of  life."  Such  an  interna- 
tional perspective  is  necessary  for 
handling  the  world's  problems,  she 
says. 

For  her  part.  Good  helps  plan  the 
Global  Studies  Program  at  Agnes 
Scott,  designed  to  offer  each  student 
an  experience  beyond  her  own  cul- 
ture during  her  college  career. 

The  church  needs  a  similar  toler- 
ance for  diversity.  Good  continues. 
"The  time  has  gone  when  we  could 
say,  'It's  important  to  me  that  you're 
a  Southern  Baptist  and  I'm  an  Epis- 
copalian. That  separates  us. '  Now  is 
the  time  to  say,  'There  are  some 
priorities  that  necessitate  not  em- 
phasizing our  differences:  human

dignity,  human  worth,  social  justice, 
equality,  preservation  of  human 
rights,  peace.'  Those  are  far  more 
important  than  what  happens  to 
bread  at  communion." 

They  both  recalled  the  atmosphere 
at  the  forum  was  very,  very  high 
energy.  "Incredible  energy,"  Good 
says.  "Very  exciting,  very  dynamic. 
Totally  exhausting,  but  very 
invigorating. 

"One  would  be  walking  down  the 
street  with  all  these  internationally 
famous  people,  and  then  one  would 
see  a  group  of  Nairobi  male  students 
who  had  come  just  to  see  what  these 
women  were  doing,"  she  laughs. 
"And  then  one  would  see  tribes- 
women  in  their  traditional  costumes, 
bringing  their  kids  along,  selling 
some  of  the  stuff  they  make  in  their 
villages.  It  was  incredible  diversity." 

"Overall,  it  didn't  matter  who  one 
was,  what  one  was,  where  one  came 
from,"  Clarke  interjects.  "She  was  of 
interest.  She  was  welcome." 

During  the  last  decade 
women's  life  expectancy, 

education  and  literacy 
have  increased  worldwide. 

At  the  torum,  Clarke  convened  a 
panel  of  health  care  officials  from 
several  nations.  In  the  informal 
discussion  afterward,  several  Kenyans 
shared  their  triumphs  in  health  care 
in  recent  years.  "One  South  African 
woman  said,  'I  am  excited  to  hear 
about  what  you  Kenyans  are  doing  in 
health  care,  but  I  want  you  to  know 
that  it  makes  me  sad  that  my  sisters 
are  being  sterilized  against  their 
will.'  And  she  began  to  name  the 
atrocities." 

Clarke  says,  "I  could  teel  with  this 
South  African  woman  — articulate, 
bright,  compassionate.  How  she 
even  got  in  (to  Kenya)  I  don't  know, 
because  she  wouldn't  have  been 
allowed  a  passport.  She  was  probably 
smuggled  in." 

A  woman  pediatrician  told  Clarke 


Just  what  we  don't  need: 
A  Women's  Auxiliary  to  the  U.N. 


Would  you  ever,  in  your  wildest  fan- 
tasies, expect  to  hear  about  a  World 
Conference  for  Men,  or  a  United 
Nations'  Decade  for  Men? 

Of  course  not.  That  would  he 
absurd.  There  are  more  than  2  billion 
male  people  in  the  world.  They  live  all 
over  the  globe,  in  every  imaginable 
economic,  social  and  political  situa- 
tion, varying  not  only  from  country  to 
country  but  within  each  country. 

A  World  Conference  for  Women  and 
a  U.N.  Decade  tor  Women  are  equally 
absurd.  There  are  more  than  2  billion 
female  people  in  the  world.  We  too  live 
all  over  the  globe,  in  every  imaginable 
economic,  social  and  political  situa- 
tion, varying  not  only  from  country  to 
country  but  within  each  country. 

We  are  no  more  like  each  other  than 
men  are  like  each  other.  That  is  what 
the  w'omen's  movement  has  been  all 
about,  that  women  he  recognized  and 
treated  as  individual  persons,  not 
lumped  together  in  any  phony  network 
of  sisterhood  that  is  supposed  to  some- 
how transcend  national  boundaries, 
economic  classes  and  cultural 
differences. 

Even  within  a  nation,  we  are  not  the 
same.  In  our  nation,  for  example,  we 
speak  of  "the  women's  vote,"  and  yet 
our  last  national  election  proved  that 
women  are  not  a  monolithic  group, 
with  special  problems  of  no  concern  to 
men,  to  be  dealt  with  in  any  one 
gathering  claiming  to  represent 
women. 

When  men  gather  for  international 
conferences,  they  identify  substanti\'e 
issues  for  consideration.  Each  repre- 
sents the  national  interests  of  his  own 
country,  including  the  women  of  that 
country.  The  men  are  not  expected  to 
subordinate  national  interests  and 
responsibilities  to  personal  concerns. 
As  delegates  of  their  nations,  they  are 
expected  to  operate  within  the  context 
of  national  sovereignty  and  national 
policies. 


The  U.  N .  Women's  Conference  j  ust 
held  in  Naitobi  was,  in  fact,  a  confer- 
ence not  of  women  but  of  governments. 
The  women  and  one  man  who  rep- 
resented the  United  States,  like  other 
national  delegates,  operated  within  the 
domestic  and  foreign  policies  of  this 
nation.  Why  should  we  be  surprised 
that  the  same  differences  that  routinely 
surface  at  other  international  gather- 
ings surfaced  there? 

There  are  no  "women's  issues"  that 
are  not  also  "men's  issues"  and  vice 
versa.  Peace,  pure  drinking  water, 
health,  economic  development  — 
where  could  you  possibly  draw  the  line 
between  what  concetns  women  and 
what  concerns  men? 

Furthermore,  it  doesn't  make  sense 
for  women  who  claim  to  be  powerless 
to  attempt  to  deal  with  world  problems 
for  which  there  are  already  specialized 
U.N.  and  other  international  agencies. 
If  the  15,000  to  1Q,QQ0  women  who 
traveled  to  Kenya  to  attend  the  official 
conference  or  the  unofficial  meeting 
were  to  divide  up  themselves  and  their 
money  on  monitoring  the  specialized 
agencies,  they  might  develop  some 
power. 

We  must  recognize  that  we  cannot 
eliminate  sexism  by  institutionalizing 
it.  And  we  cannot  bring  peace  and

later  that  throughout  her  schooling 
and  career,  "she  was  too  afraid  to 
even  speak  on  behalf  of  her  patients 
if  a  senior  colleague  was  misdiagnos- 
ing or  treating  that  person  poorly. 
Here  she  sees  women  who  live  in  a 
martial  state  decide  they  are  going 
to  do  something,  even  if  it  means 
their  death.  And  they're  doing  it. 
They  even  came  to  Kenya  to  tell 
people  what  they're  doing. 

"She  was  so  impressed  hy  the 
courage  of  these  feisty,  brilliant, 
everyday  women  that  she  decided  it 
was  time  to  be  one  of  them. "  Clarke 
concurs  for  herself:  "It's  time  to  be 
outrageous. 

"The  pictures  in  my  mind  are  of 
women  in  a  variety  of  native  dress 
just  being  themselves  —  as  different 
as  those  selves  are.  Stating  first-hand 
their  experience.  No  expectations 
that  I  could  fix  it.  No  fury  at  me  as 
though  1  caused  it.  Just  'this  is  what's 
happened  to  me.' 

"I  met  women  without  an  expen- 
sive, fancy  library,  who  had  built 
educational  tools  that  were  wholis- 
tic,"  Clarke  says,  her  pleasure  and 
emotion  evident.  "In  health  care 
women  have  learned  how  to  heal 
without  sophisticated,  miraculous 
tools.  Out  of  a  mud  dump  a  woman 
would  emerge  every  day  looking  very 
attractive,  being  very  loving,  quite 
at  peace,  ready  to  give  to  a  lot  of 
new  people,  and  then  to  go  back  to 
her  village. 

"I  also  saw  women  from  developed 
nations  using  their  power  and  priv- 
ilege in  moving  ways  to  struggle  with 
their  humanity  and  the  humanity  of 
their  sisters." 

But  not  every  experience  was  as 
empowering.  The  day  they  arrived 
Good  and  Clarke  were  asked  to  leave 
a  meeting  organized  by  Atlanta 
women  and  Washington,  D.C.  for 
black  women  only.  Clarke  says,  "It 
was  painful  to  have  women  of  my 
own  region  acting  racist  against  me, 
but  the  maturity  of  the  African  black 
women,  who  were  so  apologetic  and 


so  shocked  by  this  kind  of  racism, 
was  healing." 

"Last  year  I  wouldn't  have  told  you 
that  I  was  hurt  by  some  things  at  the 
conference,"  Good  says.  "I'm  very 
English,  and  English  people  are  sort 
of  polite  and  take  care  of  other 
people's  feelings.  I  would  have  con- 
sidered it  my  personal,  private  grief. 

'The  future  gets  done 

by  individual  people 

committing  their 

professional  and  personal 

lives  to  the  work.' 

"But  now  I  think  it's  important  to 
say  that  I  will  not  tolerate  that 
behavior.  If  people  want  to  be  racist, 
then  maybe  we  can't  work  together. 
There's  a  lot  of  pain,  but  I'm  not 
afraid  to  say  that  anymore." 

Women  all  over  the  world  are 
asserting  themselves  in  new  ways, 
speaking  in  their  own  behalf,  Good 
and  Clarke  emphasize.  Women  in 
less  developed  countries  are  going 
beyond  an  intellectual,  theoretical 
feminism  for  something  much  more 
practical:  survival. 

"These  women  are  saying,  'The 
world  of  madness,  which  has  been 
run  by  men,  for  men,  about  men,  has 
touched  the  very  essence  of  our 
survival,'"  Clarke  says,  "and  survival 
has  always  been  under  women's 
domain.  They  are  standing  up  to  say, 
'You  can't  do  it  without  a  fight.  We're 
going  to  get  our  water.  We're  going 
to  grow  our  fruit  and  raise  our  chil- 
dren with  our  husbands.  We're  going 
to  be  recognized  in  the  political 
forces  of  our  tribe  or  our  country.  We 
will  stand  together.'  Congress  can't 
stop  it.  Lack  of  funds  can't  stop  it." 

Some  have  called  it  an  interna- 
tional women's  movement.  Others 
call  it  meaningless  rhetoric.  But 
Good  and  Clarke  doubt  that  it  is 
coincidence  that  women's  lives  have 
improved  during  the  UN  Decade  for 
Women. 

Life  expectancy,  education  and 


literacy  have  increased  worldwide. 
Women  in  most  countries  — except 
the  United  States  and  most  Muslim 
nations  — are  achieving  more  equal- 
ity with  men,  legally  and  constitu- 
tionally, they  point  out. 

Eighty  nations  have  ratified  the 
UN  Convention  on  the  Elimination 
of  All  Forms  of  Discrimination 
Against  Women,  a  document  that 
urges  countries  to  implement  equal 
political,  social  and  economic  rights 
for  women.  Ninety  countries  now 
have  equal-pay  laws,  up  from  28 
since  1978.  Research  on  women  has 
burgeoned. 

If  progress  continues,  Clarke 
believes,  Roman  Catholic  sisters  and 
women  of  developing  nations  will 
lead  it. 

"There  is  an  impetus  tor  healthy 
change  because  of  the  support  system 
of  the  church,"  Clarke  says.  "Now 
it's  the  church's  responsibility  to 
apply  the  fundamental  principles  of 
equality,  development  and  peace  in 
the  local  church  areas.  You  can't 
worry  about  South  African  women  if 
you  live  in  Atlanta  and  don't  worry 
about  the  poor  black  woman  across 
the  street." 

Good  says  religion  was  pervasive 
at  the  forum. 

The  All  African  Conference  of 
Churches,  an  interdenominational 
Christian  group,  started  Karibu,  a 
place  set  aside  at  a  local  church  for 
women  of  various  religious  traditions 
to  gather  and  share.  Karibu  means 
welcome  in  Swahili,  Kenya's 
language. 

Also,  the  Anglican  Church  spon- 
sored an  African  night,  serving 
dinners  of  meat  and  fruit  to  several 
thousand  people  in  the  cathedral 
while  choirs  from  all  over  Africa 
performed. 

Now  the  task  is  to  make  it  happen, 
both  women  point  out.  "I  want  also 
to  be  involved  in  strategizing  with 
Atlanta  women  who  have  been  to 
the  conference  and  with  other 
women  leaders  in  the  church  commu-

The  Celestial 
Streaker 


Comets  may  give  us  clues  to  the  beginnings 
of  the  solor  system  some  4.5  billion  yeors  ago, 


124  FALL  1985 


Comets  —  those  mysterious 
white  streaks  of  spectacle  — 
have  long  been  credited 
with  influencing  fates,  fortunes,  and 
famines.  But  not  until  the  late  17th 
century,  however,  when  a  British 
astronomer  and  mathematician 
studied  reported  comet  sightings 
from  1531,  1607,  and  1682,  were 
connections  between  them  scientifi- 
cally considered.  Based  on  his  work, 
the  astronomer  predicted  the  year 
and  the  course  of  one  comet's  re- 
turn—but he  died  too  soon  to  see 
his  theory  proven  correct  near  Christ- 
mas 1758.** 

The  astronomer  was  Edmund 
Halley,  and  Halley's  comet  —  the 
first  comet  whose  return  was  accu- 
rately predicted  — has  become 
perhaps  the  world's  most  observed, 
examined,  photographed,  plotted, 
and  scrutinized  astronomical  event. 
When  Halley's  makes  its  30th  re- 
corded pass  around  the  sun  this 
winter,  says  Dr.  Malcolm  B.  Niedner, 
an  astrophysicist  at  NASA's  Goddard 
Space  Flight  Center,  "We  will  see 
the  most  intensive  assault  on  a  comet 
in  history." 

Niedner,  married  to  Dianne  Gers- 
tle Niedner  '72,  is  intensely  involved 
in  all  three  of  NASA's  comet-study 
projects  over  the  next  year.  Besides 
his  professional  interest,  he  has  a 
personal  stake  as  well:  his  doctoral 
thesis,  on  why  comets  grow  and  drop 
several  plasma  tails  within  each 
orbit,  will  be  tested  as  part  of  the 
NASA  observations. 

What  is  this  celestial  enigma, 
arousing  such  worldwide  fascination? 
Actually,  relatively  little  is  known 
about  what  comets  are  or  where  they 
come  from.  The  vaporization  part  of 
a  comet's  orbit,  when  it  is  nearest  to 
the  sun  and  easiest  to  observe,  lasts 
only  a  few  months,  leaving  little  time 
for  extensive  study.  Also,  many 
comets  are  small  and  can  be  seen 
only  with  a  telescope,  and  most  have 
such  large  orbital  cycles  that  their 
appearances  cannot  be  anticipated. 
To  date  there  are  about  650  comets 
scientifically  recorded,  many  with 


only  one  verified  sighting.* 

Niedner  describes  a  comet's  core 
as  a  "dirty  iceball";  it  is  thought  to 
be  composed  mainly  of  water  plus 
carbon  monoxide,  carbon  dioxide, 
ammonia,  methane,  and  perhaps 
other  trace  species.  Dust  grains  and 
rocky  material  may  make  up  between 
one-quarter  and  one-half  of  its 
mass.  *  The  largest  comet  on  record 
had  a  nucleus  70  kilometers  (42 
miles)  in  diameter;  the  smallest  so 
far  detected  is  one-half  kilometer 
(one-third  mile)  wide.* 

One  predominant  theory  says 
leftovers  from  the  cloud  of  dust,  gases 
and  other  material  which  first  formed 
our  solar  system  eventually  drifted 
into  orbit,  mostly  as  the  Oort  cloud 
at  the  edge  of  the  solar  system, 
containing  hundreds  of  millions  of 
comet  nuclei.*  These  nuclei  get 
kicked  into  eliptical  orbits  when  a 
passing  star  gives  them  a  whopping 
gravitational  tug. 

When  an  orbiting  comet  nucleus 
comes  within  three  to  five  astronom- 
ical units  ot  the  sun  (one  a.  u.  is  the 
distance  from  the  earth  to  the  sun; 
three  a.u.'s  would  put  it  between 
Mars  and  Jupiter),  sunlight  "cooks" 
it.  The  ice  becomes  vapor,  and  both 
gas  and  dust  particles  are  released  to 
form  the  coma,  which  emits  the  tails. 
The  dust  tail  grows  as  the  nucleus 
approaches  the  sun,  fanning  away 


from  sunlight  in  a  broad  yellow  haze. 

At  the  same  time,  sunlight  ionizes 
gases  and  the  free  ions  also  trail  the 
comet.  This  second  tail  looks  narrow, 
straight,  and  blue  from  light  given 
off  by  the  positively  charged  ions. 
When  the  comet  meets  the  solar 
wind  —gusts  of  protons  and  electrons 
just  beyond  the  sun's  surface,  which 
may  be  1  to  2  million  degrees  Fahren- 
heit—a comet  loses  and  regains  its 
tail  every  week  or  two  as  the  nucleus 
moves  through  magnetic  fields  of 
alternating  polarity,  according  to 
Niedner. 

Exploring  the  details  of  this  proc- 
ess is  one  of  NASA's  priorities  in  this 
comet-watching  season.  And  there 
is  ample  opportunity.  Besides 
Halley's  long-anticipated  return, 
another  comet,  named  Giacobini- 
Zinner,  is  on  hand  —  and  NASA  is 
focusing  considerable  attention  on 
it.  When  the  International  Cometar^' 
Explorer  spacecraft  crossed  Giaco- 
bini-Zinner's  path  on  Sept.  11,  the 
United  States  became  the  first  nation 
to  send  a  mission  to  any  comet. 

Besides  collecting  data  on  the 
comet's  composition,  the  mission  has 
added  to  astronomical  knowledge  in 
two  other  ways.  After  its  1978  launch- 
ing as  International  Sun-Earth 

On  Halley's  pass  this  year 

we'll  see  the  most 

intensive  assault  on 

a  comet  in  history. 

Explorer  3,  it  first  monitored  the 
solar  wind,  then  was  adapted  to 
study  the  earth's  own  magnetic  tail. 
The  three-in-one  mission  produced 
"a  lot  of  bang  for  the  dollar,"  Niedner 
says,  and  was  "a  ver\'  effective  use  of 
funds." 

It  was  funding  that  kept  the 
United  States  from  joining  Japanese, 
Soviet  and  European  scientists  to 
send  a  spacecraft  to  meet  Halley's  as 
well.  The  flinding  crisis  of  the  late 
1970s  led  to  calls  for  restraint  in 
government  spending,  and  a  pro- 
posed Halley's  mission  was  grounded.

Atlanta-area  folks  who  aren't 
planning  an  ocean  cruise  in  the 
southern  hemisphere  during  the 
peak  viewing  days  ot  Halley's 
comet:  don't  despair.  A  short  car 
ride  to  the  country  —  anywhere 
away  from  city  lights  —  will  give  you 
a  look  at  the  once-in-a-lifetime-for- 
most-of'us  event.  But  he  prepared 
to  wake  up  early  or  to  turn  in  very 
late,  because  at  the  comet's  peak 
this  spring  the  best  viewing  will  be 
at  about  5  a.m. 

According  to  Agnes  Scott's 
Alberto  Sadun,  assistant  professor 
of  astronomy  and  director  of  the 
Bradley  Observatory,  Halley's 
comet  will  become  barely  visible  to 
the  naked  eye  in  ideal  (very  dark) 
conditions  in  December.  The  view- 
will  be  best  around  midnight.  As 
the  comet  moves  toward  its  late 
March,  early  April  peak,  it  ap- 
proaches the  sun,  and  the  best 
\'iewing  times  will  get  later. 

At  its  peak,  how  large  will  the 
comet  seem  from  earth?  Well,  hold 
your  hand  at  arm's  length  in  front 
of  you,  with  fingers  and  thumb 
side-by-side.  The  comet  and  its  tail 
will  appear  to  be  about  the  width 
of  your  hand  from  thumb  to 
"pinky."  Binoculars  will  not  be 
necessary  to  see  the  silver-white 
ball  with  a  fuzzy  tail  that  will  be 
Halley's  comet,  but  they  will  much 
improve  the  view,  Sadun  says. 

"Comets  are  a  lot  like  hurricanes 
in  terms  of  predictability,"  Sadun 
explains.  "We  have  to  rely  on  some 
very  crude  predictions  about  the 
comet  in  terms  of  its  brightness. 
Unfortunately,"  he  adds,  "there 
will  be  a  full  moon  when  Halley's 
comet  is  at  its  best;  that  will  affect 


the  view  to  a  great  extent." 

An  open  house  for  the  public  and 
College  community  is  held  at  the 
Bradley  Observatory'  the  first  Friday 
of  each  month  at  8  p.m.,  with 
lectures,  planetarium  shows  and, 
on  clear  nights,  telescope  viewings. 
This  year  the  observatory  programs 
will  em.phasize  Halley's  comet  and 
feature  a  "comet  update"  each 
month.  Public  viewings  are  tenta- 
tively scheduled  after  the  plan- 
etarium shows,  but  depend  on 
weather  conditions. 

Julius  Staal,  director  of  the 
College  planetarium,  recommends 
the  booklet,  Mr.  Halley's  Comet: 
Everyone's  Complete  Guide  To  Seeing 
the  Celestial  Event,  for  people  who 
would  like  more  information  —  in 
lay  terms.  Published  by  Sky  and 
Telescope  magazine,  the  booklet 
offers  guidance  in  locating,  viewing 
and  even  photographing  Halley's 
comet.  For  a  copy,  send  a  check  for

Anita  Kern  '74,  astronomer  and 
physicist  with  DeKalb  County's 
Fernbank  Science  Center,  notes 
that  the  Fernbank  observatory- 
hours  will  be  extended  this  year  to 
allow  the  community  to  see  the 
comet  by  telescope.  Fernbank's 
telescope  is  the  largest  in  the 
United  States  that  is  open  to  the 
public  on  a  weekly  basis. 

A  planetarium  show  "The  Return 
of  Halley's  Comet"  w-ill  run  through 
Nov.  27  and  again  from  Jan.  7, 
1986,  through  April  20,  1986. 
Special  lectures  will  address  such 
topics  as  locating  Halley's  comet, 
and  "Was  Halley's  comet  the  Star 


mt 


of  Bethlehem?"  Bradley  Observa- 
tory, at  Agnes  Scott,  will  also 
sponsor  a  December  open  house 
with  a  "Christmas  Show"  among 
others. 

An  exhibit  of  works  by  Jerr\- 
Armstrong,  local  artist  and  amateur 
astronomer,  will  be  featured  at 
Fernbank  through  December.  An 
informative  —  and  fun  —  hands-on 
computer  exhibit  will  answer  ques- 
tions about  the  comet  and  other 
celestial  subjects. 

Ms.  Kern,  who  teaches  advanced 
instructional  courses  and  is  a  direc- 
tor of  a  research  project  seminar  for 
high  school  students,  says  she's 
excited  about  the  return  of  Halley's 
comet,  and  she's  likely  to  spend  a 
lot  of  early-morning  hours  at  the 
observatory.  "Fernbank  is  trying  to 
provide  ample  opportunities  for  the 
public  to  learn  about  and  appreciate 
Halley's  comet,"  she  said.  'After 
all,  it  only  comes  around  every  76 
years  — not  many  people  get  a 
chance  to  see  it  twice." 

But  Agnes  Scott  has  at  least  one 
youngster  who  saw  Halley's  last 
orbital  cycle  in  May  1910.  Caroline 
"Callie"  McKinney  Clarke  '27 
recalls  at  5  years  old,  "My  father 
taking  me  up  out  of  the  bed  and 
going  deep  into  the  hack  yard  to 
see  the  comet.  Oh,  it  was  exciting, 
though  I  believe  1  was  more  excited 
about  being  out  so  late  than  about 
seeing  Halley."

But  Niedner,  a  consultant  to  the 
project,  is  pleased  now  that  the 
Giacohini'Zinner  study  will  provide 
a  useful  comparison  with  findings  by 
other  missions  to  Halley's  in  March. 
"Isn't  that  better  than  sending  all 
that  spacecraft  to  one  comet?" 

Despite  its  absence  from  the 
expedition  to  Halley's,  NASA  is 
strongly  involved  in  studying  the 
comet  in  other  ways.  For  one  week 
in  March,  as  the  orbit  is  intercepted 
by  the  international  teams,  a  space 
shuttle  project  named  Astro- 1  will 
observe  from  afar.  This  separate 
mission  complements  ground-based 
study,  says  Niedner,  since  Astro- I's 
three  telescopes  operate  in  the 
ultraviolet  portion  of  the  light  spec- 
trum, and  on  Earth  ultraviolet  waves 
are  absorbed  by  the  atmosphere. 

Niedner  sees  this  project  as 
another  example  of  efficient  use  of 
government-funded  equipment.  As 
chair  of  the  Astro  Halley  Science 
Team,  he  and  10  other  cometary 
scientists  determined  how  best  to 
employ  the  three  telescopes,  which 
were  designed  for  other  uses  than 
comet-watching.  Astro- 1  will  orbit 
the  earth  every  90  minutes,  and  on 
at  least  every  fourth  orbit  will  observe 
and  photograph  the  comet.  The 
team  is  advising  the  project  and  will 
help  analyze  and  publish  its  results. 

Scientists  believe  all  the  attention 
paid  to  comets  will  provide  clues  to 
the  beginnings  of  the  solar  system 
about  4-5  billion  years  ago.  "The 
nucleus  probably  contains  very  primi- 
tive material,  "Niedner  explains.  "If 
that  material  is  far  from  the  sun,  it 
stays  cold  and  unprocessed  — pre- 
served by  a  deep  freeze." 

Even  when  the  nucleus  encounters 
sunlight  and  the  solar  wind,  not 
enough  melting  occurs  to  destroy  it: 
the  active  period  within  about  three 
astronomical  units  of  the  sun  is  a 
small  portion  of  even  Halley's  orbit, 
35  a.u.  at  its  farthest  point.  Halley's, 
which  Niedner  estimates  is  slightly 


smaller  than  Washington,  D.C., 
loses  only  about  a  meter  of  material 
in  every  swing  past  the  sun.  Its 
appearances  have  been  cited  back  to 
240  B.C.;*  though  no  one  knows 
how  long  the  76-year  orbit  has 
existed,  Niedner  believes  it's  been 
going  for  thousands  of  years  "and 
probably  has  thousands  more  to  go. " 

On  average,  five  new  comets  are 
discovered  each  year.*  Few  are  as 
long  or  as  bright  as  Halley's,  and 
most  orbits  are  so  elongated  that 
scientists  have  only  one  shot  to 
observe  them.  Comet  West,  for 
example,  appeared  in  1976  and  was 
"one  of  the  brightest  in  the  last 
century,"  according  to  Niedner;  but 
its  orbit  takes  500,000  years.*  The 
much-touted  Kohoutek  of  1973  is 
expected  again  in  about  75,000 
years.  So  Halley's,  which  for  most  of 
us  is  a  once-in-a-lifetime  event,  is  a 
reliable  and  accessible  resource  for 
building  our  knowledge  of  comets. 

The  best  sightings  from  earth  will 
be  in  the  spring  of  1986,  Niedner 
advises,  and  "if  you  have  the  time 
and  the  money,  go  to  the  Southern 
Hemisphere"  to  see  it.  Many  ocean 
lines  will  be  sponsoring  Halley's 
comet  cruises  in  the  spring  for  serious 
pleasure  watchers.  In  late  November, 
all  of  December,  and  the  first  seven 
to  ten  days  of  January,  the  comet  will 
be  well-placed  for  viewing  in  the 
Northern  Hemisphere,  though  it  will 
not  be  as  bright  and  binoculars  may 
be  needed  in  some  areas. 

"It's  a  sight  well  worth  seeing," 
says  Niedner  — and  since  Halley's 
comet  won't  be  back  until  2061,  now 
is  our  best  opportunity.  Happy  view-

nity  in  Atlanta,"  Good  explains. 

Good  and  Clarke  met  with  a  group 
of  women  before  the  UN  conference 
to  be  able  to  better  represent  local 
concerns  to  the  forum.  They  met 
again  Sept.  28  to  discuss  new  plans. 

Clarke  says  such  meetings  will 
help  project  the  forward-looking 
stategies  into  the  future.  "The  future 
is  brought  about  by  individual  people 
committing  their  professional  and 
personal  lives  to  the  work." 

The  recognition  that 

women's  issues  are  for  the 

good  of  the  community 

has  persuaded  men 

to  be  concerned. 

"I  want  to  find  women  who  might 
he  committed  to  local  implemen- 
tation of  things,"  Good  says.  "That 
will  be  more  far-reaching  than  telling 
people  about  the  conference." 

To  illustrate  the  point,  she  told  a 
story.  For  five  years,  Kenyan  Minister 
for  Culture  and  Social  Services 
Kenneth  S.N.  Matiba  had  worked 
with  committees  and  United  Nations 
staff  on  the  conference.  As  it  opened, 
he  welcomed  the  thousands  of  confer- 
ence participants  by  describing  the 
strides  "we  women"  have  made  in  the 
decade. 

"Can  you  imagine?"  an  incredulous 
Deirdre  Good  asks.  "We  women.  And 
he  meant  it!  He's  a  50-  or  60-year-old 
Kenyan,  an  African  who  has  lived 
through  colonialism  and  every- 
thing." 

We  women,  he  had  said.  "It's  this 
recognition  that  women's  issues  are 
for  the  good  of  the  whole  community 
that  has  persuaded  men  to  be  con- 
cerned about  them,"  Good  con- 
tinues. "We  will  not  get  anywhere  in 
this  world  if  we  don't  work  in  partner- 
ship." Women  and  men  together 
must  implement  the  forward-looking 
strategies  adopted  in  the  conference's 
final  hours.  D

Dr.  Edward  McNair  served 
.Agnes  Scott  College  tor  more 
than  a  quarter  of  a  centuty: 
first  as  director  of  public 
relations  and  associate  profes- 
sor of  English  from  1952-1977, 
and  then  in  his  retirement 
when  he  recorded  the  history 
of  the  College  in  Lest  We 
Forget.  Dr.  McNair  died  Aug. 
24,  1985. 

Those  alumnae  who  were 
students  when  Dr.  McNair 
was  at  Agnes  Scott  know  that 


he  never  forgot  a  name.  It  was 
no  secret  that  he  loved  the 
College.  In  the  late  '50s,  Dr. 
McNair  wrote  an  article  for 
the  Quarterly  about  campus 
de\elopment.  He  referred  to 
the  College's  endowment  as 
the  "life-line  to  the  mainte- 
nance of  the  academic  excel- 
lence which  characterizes 
Agnes  Scott."  His  comments 
then  are  just  as  applicable 
today:  "One  is  worthy  of  a 
great  heritage  only  as  he  rises 
to  its  privileges  and  increases 
its  values  for  succeeding 
generations." 

Dr.  McNair  was  an  instruc- 
tof  in  English  from  1947-49  at 
Emory  Uni\^ersity  where  he 
earned  a  master's  and  Ph.D. 
He  graduated  from  Davidson 
College  and  was  elected  to 
Phi  Beta  Kappa. 

He  was  an  active  member 
of  Druid  Hills  Presbyterian 
Church  where  he  ser\'ed  as 
elder,  clerk  of  session,  church 
school  teacher  and  church 
school  officer.

Happy  90th, 
Mr.  George! 

There  are  birthday  parties  — 
and  there  are  birthday  parties. 

Agnes  Scott  helped  to 
throw  a  grand  one  for 
benefactor  George  W. 
Woodruff's  90th.  More  than 
500  guests  joined  ASC, 
Emory  University,  Georgia 
Institute  of  Technology, 
Mercer  University  and  the 
Westminster  Schools  in 
wishing  "Mr.  George"  many 
happy  returns  on  Aug.  27. 

On  behalf  of  the  institu-

with  a  copy  of  the  Aug.  27, 
1895,  New  Yor/c  Herald- 
Tribune;  a  teddy  bear  in  a 


three-piece  suit,  carrying  a 
Wall  Street  Journal  and  a  cane 
with  a  horn  and  rear-view 
mirror.  Another  gift  suggested 
the  ultimate  solution  for  the 
new  Coke-old  Coke  dilemma: 
a  can  of  each  Coke  mounted 
on  a  hard  hat,  with  a  straw 
hanging  down  to  drink  from 
either  one. 

The  joint  gift  from  the  host 
institutions  was  a  Boehm 
porcelain  presidential  eagle 
signed  by  President  Ronald 
Reagan  and  Vice  President 
George  Bush. 

Not  content  to  enjoy  the

Moving Moving Moving Moving 


Agnes  Scott  discovered  this 
summer  that  lots  of  renovation 
inevitably  means  lots  of 
moving. 

When  Main  Hal!  closed  in 
June,  the  administrative 
offices  which  were  on  the  first 
floor  took  shelter  in  several 


new  locations.  The  dean  ot 
students  office,  financial  aid, 
and  career  planning  moved  to 
the  bottom  floor  of  Winship 
Hall.  The  College  switch- 
board and  its  electrical  entour- 
age moved  in  with  the  public 


safety  office  in  the  wing  of 
Rebekah  near  Buttrick  Drive. 
The  public  relations  office 
and  its  new  director,  Sandra 
Cluck,  share  quarters  with 
the  alumnae  office  in  the 
Alumnae  House,  while  the 


publications  office  migrated 
to  the  top  floor  of  the 
gymnasium. 

Student  organizations  and 
student  publications  offices 
are  using  the  top  floor  of  the 
infirmary. 


ALUMNAE  UPDATE 

An  important  message  about  your  credentials  file 


Dear  Agnes  Scott  Alumna, 

In  an  effort  to  improve  its 
services  to  you,  the  Career 
Planning  and  Placement 
Office  is  updating  its  creden- 
tials service,  the  system  by 
which  student  and  alumnae 
references  are  maintained  and 
sent,  by  request,  to  schools 
and  employing  organizations. 
In  going  through  our  files, 
we  have  found  that  many  of 
the  references  we  are  holding 
are  obsolete  —  some  dating  as 
far  back  as  the  1940s!  Al- 
though these  outdated  refer- 
ences are  of  no  value  to 
employers,  we  don't  want  to 
destroy  them  without  your 
permission. 

Please  complete  and  sign 


the  attached  form  and  return 
it  to  us  by  Jan.  1,  1986.  If  we 
do  not  hear  from  you  by  that 
date,  we  will  discontinue  your 
file. 

Upon  receipt  of  this  form, 
we  will  automatically  main- 
tain your  credentials  file  for 
five  years,  until  Dec.  31, 
1990,  at  which  time  you  will 
again  be  responsible  for 
updating  it.  If  your  file  is 
outdated  (from  3-5  years  old) 
we  will  be  pleased  to  send  you 
the  forms  necessary  to  estab- 
lish a  new  one.  References  —  a 
maximum  of  three  —  must  be 
recorded  on  the  forms  supplied 
by  our  office.  We  feel  this 
consistent  approach  helps  to 
project  an  organized,  profes- 


sional image  to  employing 
organizations. 

The  1974  Family  Educa- 
tional Rights  and  Privacy  Act 
gives  students  and  alumnae 
open  access  to  their  tiles. 
Some  employers,  however, 
perceive  closed  files  to  be  a 
more  candid  reflection  of  a 
person's  strengths  and  abili- 
ties. If  you  wish  to  waive  your 
right  of  access  to  your  creden- 
tials file,  please  note  on  the 
attached  form  that  you  wish 
these  files  to  remain  closed. 

Finally,  because  the  cost  of 
this  credentials  service  has 
increased  over  the  years,  we 
must  begin  charging  a  fee  to 
mail  your  references  to  pro- 
spective schools  and  employ- 


ers. Beginning  Jan.  1,  1986, 
the  first  set  of  credentials  will 
be  sent  free  of  charge.  Each 
subsequent  mailing  will  cost 
you  $1. 

We  feel  these  changes  will 
enhance  the  value  ot  the 
credentials  service  to  both 
alumnae  and  employers.  If 
you  have  any  questions  about 
these  changes,  or  if  you  would 
like  further  information  on 
our  credentials  service,  please

tour,  open  to  Agnes  Scott 
alumnae  and  students,  is 
designed  for  those  travelers 
who  do  not  like  to  be  rushed. 
Dr.  Parry,  chairman  of  the

and  lead  discussions  about 
Greek  culture  relevant  to  the
