Year  of  the  Bulldozer 


Alterations  were  evident  when  students  returned  to  campus  located  around  campus.  The  campus  is  definitely  taking  on  a 

this  fall.  Some  of  these  transformations  were  minor  while  others  new  look.  The  new  trees  and  plants  being  planted  will  make 

made  a  profound  impact  on  the  campus  layout  itself.  The  major  Millsaps  look  like  the  Garden  of  Eden  when  they  bloom.  The 

changes  were  readily  seen  around  campus,  such  as  the  con-  constant  changes  on  campus  display  the  willingness  of  Millsaps 

struction  of  the  Olin  Science  Building,  the  fence  around  cam-  administrators  to  continually  improve  the  school's  status  and  to 

pus,  the  guard  houses,  and  the  bell  tower.  Less  obvious,  but  serve  the  student  body, 
more  aggravating  to  students  who  drive,  are  the  speed  bumps

The  Many  Facets  of  Millsaps  Life 


The  events  that  affect  a  student 
at  Millsaps  are  analogous  to  the 
effects  that  a  jeweler  has  on  a 
diamond.  The  jeweler  can  take 
on  many  forms  such  as  teachers, 
extracurricular  activities,  and 
social  life.  The  uncut  diamond  is 
the  student.  The  jeweler  works 
on  the  stone  refining  and  po- 
lishing it  until  the  end  result  is 
achieved,  a  perfect  diamond. 
Such  is  the  desired  result  of  a 
graduating  senior,  to  be  multi- 
faceted  and  complete  via  a  lib- 
eral arts  education. 


No  Change  of  Heart 


1987  was  a  year  of  change  for  the  face  of  the  Millsaps  campus,    of  the  traditions  here  at  Millsaps— are  still  seen  every  day  in 
But  even  though  the  appearance  was  changed,  the  spirit  was    the  life  of  the  students, 
constant.  Sharing,  caring,  relaxing,  and  working  — just  a  few 


Sunny  Days  in  the  Bowl 


With  construction  all  over  campus,  the  students  of  Mill- 
saps  had  but  one  haven  where  they  could  relax  and  have 
good,  clean  fun  together .  .  .  the  Bowl.  And,  truly,  this  year 
the  Bowl  was  bursting  with  activity — there  were  lunches  in 
the  bowl,  performing  artists  visited,  and  don't  forget  the 
infamous  Greek  Weekend  . .  .

Always  Time  for  A  Smile. 


Seeing  new  faces  and  rejoining  old  friends — the  very  heart  of      Along  with  learning,  smiling  seems  to  be  an  inevitable  occur- 
the  Millsaps  student  experience.  rence.

The  1986  Homecoming  celebration 
brought  alumni,  friends,  students, 
and  family  together  for  a  day  of  food, 
football,  and  fun. 

Tradition  was  honored  by  the  choos- 
ing of  class  favorite  as  reigning  queen 
of  the  Homecoming  Court.  Sara's 
hometown  is  Corinth,  Mississippi. 


Holidays  are  welcome  diversions  from  regular  student 
life.  For  some  who  live  far  from  home,  often  campus  cele- 
brations provide  the  only  observances  of  these  special 
times.  On  Halloween,  we  found  these  young  men  who 
appear  to  have  only  tricks  on  their  minds  and  a  jack  o'lan- 
tern  standing  guard  at  the  Chi  O  House.

Christmas  Dinner  on  campus  gave  the  Millsaps  family  a 
chance  to  observe  the  season  together  before  scattering 
for  home.  Santa  even  made  an  appearance — but  doesn't 
he  look  an  awful  lot  like  that  biology  professor  who  plays 
the  "flute-thing"  every  year?  Dean  Good  even  found  the 
Easter  Bunny  passing  out  treats  in  the  Divisions  office  on 
that  happy  Spring  day.

One  of  the  most  challenging  and  satisfying  undertakings  available 
to  a  Millsaps  student  is  participation  in  the  theatrical  productions 
staged  throughout  the  year.  Students  with  acting  experience,  togeth- 
er with  talented  newcomers,  constitute  the  Millsaps  Players.  Guided 
by  long-time  director  Lance  Goss  and  with  technical  instruction  from 
Brent  Lefavor,  student  casts  and  crews  have  never  failed  to  provide 
Millsaps  and  the  community  with  superbly-presented  performances.

The  anxiously-awaited  1987  Spring  Tour 
for  members  of  the  Millsaps  Singers  finally 
arrived  on  Friday,  March  6,  when  64  stu- 
dents filled  one  bus  and  a  van  and  depart- 
ed Jackson  on  nine  days  of  discovery. 

An  itinerary  of  eight  cities  and  a  reper- 
toire of  sacred  music  by  Bach,  Gabriel 
Faure,  and  Rachmaninoff  provided  the 
Singers  with  an  incomparable  experience 
unique  among  all  Millsaps  College  student 
organizations. 

The  stops  included  Atlanta,  Greens- 
boro, Chesapeake,  VA,  Washington,  D.C., 
Aberdeen,  MD,  Mt.  Sterling,  KY,  Nash- 
ville, and  Memphis.  The  Homecoming 
Concert  at  Galloway  United  Methodist 
Church  in  Jackson  capped  the  tour. 

In  Washington,  D.C.,  the  Singers  met 
with  Senator  Thad  Cochran  and  enjoyed 
an  opportunity  to  converse  with  U.S.  Re- 
presentatives Sonny  Montgomery  and 
Wayne  Dowdy  of  Mississippi. 


Retired  Methodist  minister,  the  Reverend  Luther  Bennet  of  Greensboro,  NC,  was  a  member 
of  Millsaps'  Glee  Club  in  1934.  Singers  Beverly  Vignery,  Gib  Sims,  and  Bubba  Cummins  think 
that's  pretty  neat!

The  Ford  Fellowship  (or  Club  Wagon  Clique)  consisted  of,  in  varying  combinations,  Lisa  Bowden,  Ann  Dye,  Eleni 
Matos,  Patton  Stephens,  Michelle  Forrester,  Laura  Barrett,  Susan  Thomas,  Reisa  Collum,  Gib  Sims,  Andy  Andrews, 
Tim  Dennis,  Bill  Abstein  III,  Trey  Porter,  Andre  Vial,  and  designated  drivers  Keith  Cook  and  John  Johnston. 


By  far,  the  hottest  topic  on  campus  this  spring  was  the 
proposed  Honor  Code.  The  idea  of  drafting  an  Honor 
Code  for  the  College  was  born  in  1986  and  was  acted 
upon  during  the  '86-'87  year.  After  months  of  work,  the 
proposal  was  made  public  and  subjected  to  much  de- 
bate. The  spring  semester  saw  the  Honor  Code  dis- 
cussed and  debated  in  classrooms,  newspaper  editori- 
als, panel  discussions,  and  during  question  and  answer 
sessions.  Feedback  led  to  amendments  in  the  original 
code  and  postponement  of  voting  on  the  code.  After 
the  contents  of  the  revised  document  were  displayed, 
the  election  was  held.  The  proposal  was  dealt  a  re- 
sounding defeat  with  over  60%  of  the  students  oppos- 
ing the  code. 


Students  turned  out  in  large  numbers  to  hear  an  outdoor  debate  on 
the  Honor  Code  (left  and  right).  Below,  Andy  Harper  and  Robert 
Mangialardi  moderate  as  representatives  of  the  opposing  view.

Involvement  in  campus  affairs  is  a  hallmark 
of  life  at  Millsaps.  The  student  body  en- 
thusiastically participates  in  the  student 
government  election  process. 


Nobel  Laureate  Elie  Wiesel's  address  to 
the  audience  that  filled  the  Christian  Cen- 
ter auditorium  was  considered  by  many  to 
be  the  high  point  of  an  already  outstand- 
ing '86-87  Millsaps  Arts  and  Lecture  Series.

The  "Bowl"  has  always  been  known  as  the  cen- 
ter of  Millsaps  student  life.  This  is  especially  evi- 
dent when  Spring  arrives.  After  some  months  of 
less-than-hospitable  weather,  students  take  every 
opportunity  to  lounge  in  the  refreshing  warmth. 
One  of  the  most  popular  activities  is  lunch  in  the 
bowl.  The  cafeteria  staff  provides  a  barbeque-style 
lunch  while  a  SBA  band  provides  live  music  for  the 
outdoor  break. 

With  all  the  good  conversation,  entertainment, 
picnics  and  plain  relaxation  that  goes  on  here 
throughout  the  year,  Millsaps  students  continue 
the  "Bowl"  tradition.

Several  organizations  and  departmental 
activities  addressed  the  diverse  and  dy-

the  '86-'87  school  year.  Shown  here  are 
but  a  sampling  of  those  events.

The  College,  in  recognition  of  the  long-standing  relationship  be- 
tween the  School  of  Management  and  the  Else  family,  named  the 
school  in  honor  of  Charles  and  Eloise  Else  on  November  6,  1986. 


THE  CHARLES  W.  AND  ELOISE  T.  ELSE  SCHOOL  OF 
MANAGEMENT 

Charles  Else's  persistence  and  ability  shaped  a  ca- 
reer which  brought  him  from  the  position  of  accoun- 
tant to  Chairman  of  the  Board  and  Chief  Executive 
Officer  of  Southland  Oil  Company.  Wanting  to  en- 
courage others  to  reach  for  their  potential,  Mr.  Else, 
with  his  wife  Eloise,  established  in  1977  a  scholarship 
fund  which  recognizes  the  academic  ability  and 
promise  of  Millsaps  students  majoring  in  business  ad- 
ministration, accounting,  and  economics.  Only  the 
beginning  of  their  benevolence  to  Millsaps  College, 
the  Else  Scholars  program  epitomizes  the  Elses'  com- 
mitment to  excellence.  In  recognition  of  their  phil- 
anthropic example  and  as  a  constant  challenge  to- 
ward achievement,  Millsaps  College  names  the 
School  of  Management  in  honor  of  Charles  W.  and 
Eloise  T.  Else.

1987 


The  Friday  Forum  program  is  a  tradi- 
tion at  Millsaps.  Each  presentation  is 
open  and  free  to  the  public.  A  wide  va- 
riety of  topics  were  discussed  as  part  of

PROFESSORS 


Dr.  Robert  E.  Bergmark 


"I  think  of  life  as  an  opportunity  for  service,"  Dr.  Bergmark  says.  "It's  why  I'm  a 
teacher.  Religious  commitment,  in  my  mind,  is  not  so  much  a  set  of  doctrines  as 
a  call  to  serve,  a  call  to  love,  a  call  to  be  of  assistance.  My  particular  role  in  being 
of  assistance  is  to  be  a  teacher." 

Dr.  Bergmark  has  taught  philosophy  at  Millsaps  College  for  34  years.  His  has 
been  a  distinguished  career:  chairman  of  the  philosophy  department  since  1962; 
from  1964  until  1973,  chairman  of  the  humanities  division;  member  of  the 
academic  council  from  1967  until  1973;  director  of  the  two-year  Consortium  for 
the  Advancement  of  Private  Higher  Education  project  which  encouraged  com- 
puter literacy  among  Millsaps  faculty.  In  1974  he  was  named  Millsaps'  Distin- 
guished Professor. 

Dr.  Bergmark  doesn't  mention  these  honors  when  asked  what  has  been  most 
significant  about  his  career.  "Rather  than  some  one  thing,  it's  more  the  day-to- 
day experience  with  students.  It  simply  is  worth  something,  this  kind  of  work — 
to  see  students  over  four  years  developing  themselves,  discovering  their  minds 
and  their  abilities  to  make  distinctions."

EMERITI 


Dr.  Frank  M.  Laney,  Jr. 


It's  usually  difficult  to  attribute  a  lifetime's  occupation  to  a  single  decision  or 
circumstance.  In  Frank  Laney's  case  it's  easy.  He  became  a  teacher  because  his 
fascination  with  knowledge  made  it  unthinkable  for  him  to  do  anything  else. 
The  pursuit  of  knowledge  as  its  own  end  is  almost  out  of  fashion  in  today's 
technological  arena.  What  explains  a  preoccupation  with  facts,  a  desire  for  truth 
simply  because  it  is?  In  Dr.  Laney's  case  it  is  the  understanding  that  facts,  pieced 
together,  can  bring.  "You  can't  acquire  knowledge  about  anything  without 
gaining  greater  knowledge  of  yourself,"  he  said.  "You  come  to  recognize  where 
you  fit  in  to  things." 

Dr.  Laney  taught  history  for  nine  years  before  becoming  dean  of  the  college 
from  1962  until  1969.  While  he  was  dean,  Millsaps,  in  recognition  of  its  excel- 
lence, received  a  $1.5  million  challenge  grant  from  the  Ford  Foundation,  and 
years  of  planning  for  the  Heritage  program  came  to  fruition.  As  significant, 
perhaps  more  so  in  terms  of  their  collective  influence,  is  the  fact  that  many  of 
the  faculty  hired  during  Dr.  Laney's  tenure  as  dean  are  still  teaching  here.  They, 
like  Frank  Laney,  are  evidence  of  the  dedication  Millsaps  evokes  and  of  the 
enthusiasm  for  knowledge  that  it  fosters. 

In  1969,  Dr.  Laney  left  his  administrative  responsibilities  to  return  to  the 
classroom  where  he  has  taught  history  for  the  past  18  years.  He  first  joined  the 
faculty  in  1953.

MISSISSIPPI  STUDENT  WINS  NA- 
TIONAL AWARD  FOR  SCHOLAS- 
TIC ACHIEVEMENTS 

•  Mr.  COCHRAN.  Mr.  President,  a 
college  student  from  the  State  of  Mis- 
sissippi. Bridget  Falrley  of  Ridgeland. 
has  earned  recognition  for  a  most  re- 
markable scholastic  record. 

She  has  achieved  a  perfect  4.0  grade 
average  in  her  studies  at  Millsaps  Col- 
lege in  Jackson,  MI.  This  is  in  a  cur- 
riculum at  one  of  the  best  smaller  lib- 
eral arts  colleges  in  the  Nation. 

Miss  Pairley  is  scheduled  to  gradu- 
ate in  December  with  a  degree  in  polit- 
ical science,  and  has  expressed  an  in- 
terest in  studying  law  and  becoming 
involved  in  local  and  State  politics.  In 
addition  to  her  perfect  4.0  grade  aver- 
age, she  has  compiled  an  impressive 
list  of  scholastic  and  extracurricular 
achievements. 

What  makes  this  most  remarkable  is 
that  Bridget  Fairley  has  been  blind 
since  birth.  But  she  has  not  allowed 
this  handicap  to  hold  her  back  or  to 
prevent  her  from  succeeding  in  her 
studies  and  other  activities. 

Recently,  she  was  honored  as  one  of 
four  students  from  around  the  coun- 
try at  ceremonies  in  New  York  City  as 
the  recipient  of  the  "Recording  for 
the  Blind's  Scholastic  Achievement 
Award." 

She  was  recently  featured  In  the 
"Good  News"  column  of  the  Jackson 
Daily  News  and  I  ask  that  this  article 
be  printed  In  the  Record. 

The  article  follows: 
Bund  Millsaps  Student  Wins  Scholarship 
Honor 
(By  Ruth  Ingram) 

A  blind  student  who  has  maintained  a  per- 
fect 4.0  grade-point  average  at  Millsaps  Col- 
lege in  Jackson  has  received  a  national 
award  for  her  scholastic  achievements. 

Bridget  Fairley.  22.  of  Ridgeland  was  one 
of  four  U.S.  college  students  honored  by  Re- 
cording for  the  Blind,  a  non-profit  organiza- 
tion that  provides  recorded  educational 
books  to  blind  students  and  professional 
people. 

The  $2,000  Scholastic  Achievement 
Awards  were  presented  May  11  by  CBS  cor- 
respondent Harry  Reasoner  during  a  cere- 
mony in  New  York  City. 

Reasoner's  late  wife,  Kathleen,  was  a  vol- 
unteer reader  for  the  Recording  for  the 
Blind  unit  in  New  Haven.  Conn. 

Fairley.  a  senior  majoring  in  political  sci- 
ence, plans  to  attend  law  school  after  she 
graduates  from  Millsaps  in  December.  She 
hopes  to  pursue  a  career  in  civil  law  or  in 
state  and  local  politics. 

"In  the  midst  of  all  this,  I  hope  to  be  a 
wife  and  mother  and  I  would  place  my 
family  before  my  career."  Fairley  said. 

Her  extracurricular  activities  at  Millsaps 
include  serving  as  freshman  senator  in  the 
Millsaps  Student  Senate  and  as  parliamen- 
tarian of  the  Mississippi  Council  of  the 
Blind. 

Fairley  enjoys  cooking,  political  discus- 
sions, reading,  listening  to  classical  and  pop- 
ular music  writing  short  stories  and  re- 
searching her  family's  history. 

Other  winners  are  Beth  Ann  Anderson,  a 
sociology  major  at  Arizona  State  University; 
Donald  Hert,  a  personnel  administration 
major  at  Quincy  College  in  Quincy,  111.;  and 
Jay  Yi.  an  applied  mathematics  major  from 
the  University  of  California  at  Berkeley.*

cal science  at  Millsaps  for  the  past  21 
years.  He  was  described  by  Dean 
Robert  King  as  "an  imposing  pres-

outside  the  classroom  "he  is  one  of 
the  most  sought-after  counselors  on

Stating  that  Bavender  "brings 
imagination,  enthusiasm,  intellectual 
rigor  and  moral  earnestness"  to  his 
lectures  and  discussions,  King  noted 
that  "He  is  relentless  in  his  efforts  to

them."

Every  semester  members  of  the  Millsaps  com- 
munity gather  in  the  Tap  Day  Assembly,  sponsored 
by  the  Omicron  Delta  Kappa  Leadership  Honor 
Society.  The  purpose  of  the  gathering  is  to  recog- 
nize the  scholarly  achievement  of  those  students 
who  will  be  inducted  into  one  or  more  of  the 
several  honor  societies  on  campus. 

Honor  societies  exist  at  Millsaps  primarily  to  rec- 
ognize the  attainment  of  scholarship  of  a  superior 
quality.  They  recognize  the  development  of  lead- 
ership qualities,  character,  and  good  campus  citi- 
zenship in  addition  to  academic  achievements. 
They  maintain  a  high  standard  of  eligibility  for 
membership  and,  by  so  doing,  membership  in 
honor  societies  becomes  something  to  be  valued 
highly. 

In  addition  to  the  induction  of  new  members 
into  honor  societies,  scholarship  trophies  are 
awarded  at  Tap  Day  to  the  sorority  and  the  frater- 
nity whose  members  collectively  have  achieved 
the  highest  grade  point  average  during  the  pre- 
vious semester.  The  competition  is  keen  and  the 
announcements  are  eagerly  anticipated  by  the  en- 
tire student  body. 

Thad  Pratt  receives  the  Sigma  Lambda  leadership 
honorary  pin  from  Patton  Stephens.

Sigma  Lambda 


Sigma  Lambda  is  a  campus  honor  society  which 
recognizes  leadership  qualities.  In  the  past,  mem- 
bership into  Sigma  Lambda  has  been  bestowed  on 
students  of  junior  or  senior  class  standing  who 
have  shown  strong  leadership  characteristics.  As 
this  runs  very  closely  with  the  purpose  and  re- 
quirements of  Omicron  Delta  Kappa,  1987  Sigma 
Lambda  members  revised  the  organization's  con- 
stitution to  make  it  one  that  recognized  early 
leadership  in  sophomore  and  junior  students.  Al- 
though membership  does  not  expire  after  the  ju- 
nior year,  only  sophomore  and  junior  students 
will  be  tapped  into  the  organization.  This  year 
served  as  a  transition  year  for  Sigma  Llambda,  with 
sophomore,  junior,  and  senior  members  being 
tapped.  Regretably,  no  photo  is  available.

Singers  1986-1987 


The  Millsaps  Singers,  directed  by  Dr.  Timothy 
Coker,  provide  a  way  for  the  interested  student  to 
participate  in  the  art  of  song  and  enable  that  individ- 
ual to  realize  a  spiritually-enriching  and  personally- 
satisfying  experience  of  creative  expression  and  pub- 
lic performance  unequalled  at  the  college. 

The  1986-1987  program  included  four  major  con- 
cert efforts  which  included  the  Spring  Tour  reper- 
toire. Works  performed  were  Bach's  "Lobet  den 
Herrn"  (Motet  VI),  Rachmaninoff's  "Bogoroditse 
Devo,"  sung  in  Russian;  the  spiritual  "Our  Troubles 
Was  Hard"  by  Jester  Hairston,  Faure's  "Requiem," 
opus  48;  "Five  Mystical  Songs"  of  Ralph  Vaughn  Wil- 
liams, Norman  Dello  Joio's  "A  Jubilant  Song,"  as  well 
as  "A  Spotless  Rose"  by  Herbert  Howells,  and  other 
sacred  songs. 

The  Singers  took  their  talents  and  shared  them 
throughout  the  year  with  a  number  of  United  Meth- 
odist congregations,  serving  as  ambassadors  of  the 
College  to  the  United  Methodist  Church.  Not  only 
were  local  congregations  hosts  of  the  Singers,  but  a 
number  of  distant  groups  as  well.  These  included 
Druid  Hills  UMC  in  Atlanta,  Oak  Grove  UMC  of 
Chesapeake,  Virginia,  and  Belle  Meade  UMC  of 
Nashville.

Adult  Degree  Program 


The  Adult  Degree 
Program,  the  first  of 
its  kind  in  Mississip- 
pi, was  announced 
in  April  1982.  The 
program,  headed 
by  Harrylyn  Sallis, 
assistant  dean  for 
Adult  Learning,  is 
designed  to  facili- 
tate education  for 
adults  beyond  the 
traditional  college 
age.  It  is  tailor- 
made  for  students 
24  years  of  age  or 
older,  who  are  un- 
able to  attend  col- 
lege on  a  regular 
schedule  because 
of  family  or  em- 
ployment responsi- 
bilities. The  candi- 
date earns  a  Bache- 
lor  of  Liberal 
Studies  degree.

James  Livesay 


When  then-President  Ellis  Finger  hired  Jim  Livesay  in  1952, 
he  said,  "We  need  somebody  to  do  a  lot  of  jobs  and  we  don't 
have  a  lot  of  resources."  "So,"  recalls  Jim,  "I  rushed  in  where 
angels  feared  to  tread." 

Jim  Livesay  was  the  departments  of  public  relations,  alumni 
affairs  and  student  recruitment.  He  was  responsible  for  pro- 
ducing alumni  publications.  He  was  the  campus  photogra- 
pher, started  the  regular  alumni  fund  and  handled  church 
relations.  For  the  past  10  years,  his  primary  responsibilities 
have  been  in  church  relations. 

Many  people  have  loved  and  do  love  this  college.  It's 
doubtful,  though,  that  anyone  in  its  history  has  been  more 
devoted,  or  more  proud  of  it,  than  Jim  Livesay  (Class  of  '47). 


"I  knew  what  Millsaps  was,  what  it  stood  for,  what  it  meant 
to  the  community.  I  saw  Millsaps  as  an  institution  that  Missis- 
sippi urgently  needed,  and  I  came  here  out  of  the  feeling  that 
all  of  us  have — that  we  want  to  make  a  difference  with  our 
lives. 

"There  is  an  urgent  necessity,"  he  continues,  "for  schools 
like  Millsaps  to  communicate  values.  When  I  think  of  the 
influence  our  alumni  have  had  in  their  communities,  their 
churches— that's  the  ultimate  judgment  of  a  college,  the  ef- 
fect it  has  on  others."  The  ultimate  tribute  that  can  be  paid  to 
an  institution  is  the  loyalty  of  a  man  like  James  Livesay.  He 
retired  at  the  end  of  the  1987  school  year.

hildren's  Center 


For  a  time,  a  unique  learning  environment  existed  for 
little  boys  and  girls  on  the  campus.  The  Children's  Cen- 
ter, for  several  years  an  integral  part  of  the  Millsaps 
community,  accommodated  the  needs  of  students,  fac- 
ulty, and  staff  who  required  an  easily  accessible  and 
nurturing  place  for  child  care.  Children,  ages  1  to  4 
years,  were  provided  supervised  time  and  a  safe  place  to 
interact  while  Moms  and  Dads  were  away. 

In  the  spring  of  1987  the  Center  was  closed.

A  Final  Word 


As  Anthony  Cloy,  the  1986  Editor  of  the  Boba- 
shela,  wrote  a  year  ago  in  the  annual,  "The  produc- 
tion of  a  yearbook  is  never  an  easy  task."  What  he 
said  then  proved  to  be  true  for  the  production  of 
the  1987  Bobashela. 

Because  of  a  serious  illness  and  subsequent 
death  in  her  family,  the  1987  editor  found  it  neces- 
sary to  resign  her  position  in  late  May  with  little  of 
the  yearbook  in  production.  Anthony  Cloy  volun- 
teered to  assume  responsibility  for  the  completion 
of  the  1987  annual  in  spite  of  the  fact  that  he  was 
working  full-time  during  the  summer  at  the  Medi- 
cal Center  prior  to  his  initial  year  this  fall  as  a  medi- 
cal student.  His  personal  commitment  to  excel- 
lence and  his  reputable  experience  as  an  editor 
made  possible  what  you  have  just  read  as  a  signifi- 
cant record  of  the  1986-1987  academic  year.  His 
work  was  undergirded  by  the  constant  support 
and  skilled  craftsmanship  of  photographer  Bill 
Morris  who  is  enrolled  in  the  Adult  Degree  Pro- 
gram. Always  willing  to  help,  Bill's  printed  images 
speak  for  his  persistence  for  appropriateness  and 
quality.  He  spent  many  hours  retrieving  and  re- 
viewing a  plethora  of  photographs,  taking  new 
ones  and  organizing  the  photographs  into  a  mean- 
ingful and  attractive  presentation. 

The  student  body  and  particularly  the  members 
of  the  Class  of  1987  are  indebted  especially  to 
these  two  young  men  who  took  what  was  available, 
used  their  creative  imaginations  and  put  together 
a  yearbook  of  which  we  can  all  be  proud.  Although 
the  delivery  day  of  the  1987  Bobashela  was  de- 
layed, it  will,  like  its  predecessors,  serve  the  basic 
purpose  of  sharing  with  all  of  us  the  character,  the 
quality,  and  the  richness  of  the  Millsaps  exper-
