Homecoming
1998

Homecoming is a Davidson tradition. It nor-
mally entails the return of many alumni, lots of
parties and athletic events. This year's home-
coming occured on a beautiful October day. The
half time festivites were sponsored by P.C.C. and
Alumni Relations. Conner Eldridge, P.C.C.
president, and Leslie Mclver, Alumni Associa-
tion President, presented all the nominees for
king and queen. All fraternities and eating
houses were represented, as well as the BSC,
Independents, and ISA. The king and queen
were Chris Tuttle and Grace Robinson, both rep-
resenting Rusk. The first runner-ups were Max
Nelson for Warner Hall and Rhina Roberts for
the BSC. The secong runner-ups were Drew
Lindsey for Connor and Anna Fenton-Hathaway
for Turner. The day was a great success that
was capped off by a win for the football team
against Randolph-Macon.

Parent's Weekend and
Fall Convocation

Do you remember being in kinder-
garten? Didn't you hate to take naps?
Wouldn't it be great if our professors would
make us take naps in class?

It's funny, because the same kind of
thing happens with our parents. Freshman
year of high school is so embarrassing be-
cause your mom has to drop you off in front
of all the older kids. But now that we are in
college, we wait with restless anticipation
for parent's weekend. Is it that we want to
get a first class dinner out of them, because
they are "so proud" of us? That might be
one reason, but coming to this age we all
realize how important our parents actually
are in our lives.

I remember someone asking me if
my mom was coming for the occasion and I
said, "Yeah, she is. I can't wait!" Their re-
ply? "I am so jealous. Everybody's parents
are coming but mine!" There is just some-
thing about showing your parents how well
you have done for yourself.

Not only do our parents love seeing
what we have accomplished— we enjoy hav-
ing them around. How weird is it that when
something is taken away from you, you al-
ways want it back. We take our families for
granted, and we love seeing them for a week-
end. It's very sad when the time is over.
We say our good-byes, "Can't wait 'till
Christmas!" But Christmas break lasts al-
most a month, and we all know how long a
month seems when our parents are around.

Parent's weekend is a great time at
Davidson to remember the importance of our
families, but thank goodness it lasts for a
weekend. Any longer than that and we start
to forget. —Phillip Stewart

Christmas

Davidson

1 6 Student Life

On December first, Davidson decked Chambers once
again with ropes as study-weary students waited for Santa and
Mrs. Claus to make their yearly rappel down the front of the
college's main building. For a short while, students left vi-
sion of chemistry equations and math problems dancing in
the library and mingled in the light of hundreds of candles.
Although many were not fooled by the Common's attempt to
pass hot apple juice off as apple cider, the spirit of Christmas
could be seen across Chambers' lawn in the smiles of every-
one.

After students read the story of Christmas, the choir
lead the student body in a series of classic Christmas carols.
Santa and Mrs. Claus successfully descended to the music,
jumped into their golf-cart sleigh, and tossed treats to the crowd
while eight tiny freshman elves scampered throughout the
gathered students.

Basked in candlelight, the crowd peacefully sang "Si-
lent Night," and the two large pines in front of Chambers came
alive with lights as the crowd burst into a cheerful rendition
of "Joy to the World." The annual tree lighting ceremony
again proved a merry opportunity for students and faculty to
leave their work behind and kick off the Christmas season.

Left and Below left: Davidson students (and elf) gather with candles to sing carols.

Ada Jenkins Community Center

Davidson students have al-
ways fostered close relation-
ships with the community
through service work. No-
where is this bond stronger,
or more evident, than at the
Ada Jenkins Community
Center. This past year over a
hundred students gave their
time and energy to support the
Davidson community
through Ada Jenkins.

Freshmen spent their
service component of orien-
tation putting tables together
for the after school program.

painting community bicycles,
cleaning out the basement,
and doing some touch-up
painting in the classrooms.

Fifty students volun-
teered each semester with the
after school program. These
dedicated students spent four
hours each week tutoring
children from Davidson El-
ementary School. Tutors at
the after school program were
the green berets of volunteers
with the difficult task of get-
ting kids, who want to be out-
side playing, to sit down and

do homework.

Volunteers who
worked with the Senior Nu-
trition Center served lunch to
elderly community members
in exchange for good, or at
least old, stories.

The Davidson Youth
Activities Committee pro-
vided a safe place for young
teens to have fun and hang
out. Davidson students
served as role models and
friends.

The recently created
Middle School Tutoring Pro-
gram offered help to middle
school students in the area in
a study hall atmosphere.

Davidson students helped witrj
schoolwork and answered an>|
questions the children had.

The Parish Nurse pro-l
gram provided home visits tol
individuals in the area whol
were either restricted to their]
homes or could not afford A
doctor visit.

Several students gave
follow up services and assisted
Beth Blevins, the Parish Nurse.

Free Law services were
also offered at Ada Jenkins.
Students were trained to teach
others how to represent them-i
selves in cases such as wrong-
ful eviction.

GLORIA STEINEM

On Thursday, October 22, Gloria
Steinem, the 1998 Reynolds' Lecturer,
spoke to a sold-out audience at Love
Auditorium. Her lecture addressed "The
Politics of Sexuality."

Steinem talked about the general
population's trouble with the word femi-
nism, saying that "at the same time, we do
and don't know what it means." She cited
the definition of feminism from a dictio-
nary: "The belief in the full social, politi-
cal and economic equality of men and
women." Steinem explained feminism as a
term whose principles many might agree
with, but still have trouble identifying
with, due to society's preconceptions of
what feminism is. The women's move-
ment, she feels, has made progress, but
still has far to go as she said, "Any real
justice movement must have at least 100
years to make a real mark."

Steinem explained that the patriar-
chal structure has gotten men hooked on
the idea that they need to have dominance
over others in their lives. Stressing the
importance of individualism over group-
ing by gender, Steinem stated, "We are all
human. The difference between two men
or two women may be more than the
difference between men and women as
groups."

Steinem is a writer, editor, lecturer,
social activist, and world-renowned leader
of the modern feminist movement. She
serves as a writer and consulting editor for
Ms. Magazine, which she co-founded in
1972. She has also written several books
and has co-produced an Emmy award-
winning TV documentary and a made-for-
TV movie.The Women's Action Alliance,
the National Women's Political Caucus,
and the Coalition of Labor Union Women
were all founded in part by Steinem's
efforts. Steinem was inducted into the
Women's Hall of Fame in 1993.

Her visit coincided with both the
celebration week of twenty-five years of
coeducation at Davidson and with Presi-
dent Vagt's recent approval of the Gender
Resource Center. — excerpted from Laura
McCandlish's October 27th article in The
Davidsonian.

Turner House

Nineteen ninety-nine was the first year that freshwomen were able to self-select into Turner
House. This is Davidson's fourth eating house located across the street from Kappa Sig. The house
was named after Catherine Turner, a Davidson graduate who now works at the Ada Jenkins Commu-
nity Center. With the increasing number of girls wishing to join an eating house, some women of
Davidson College decided to start a fourth eating house. Upperclassmen first selected into Turner in
January of nineteen ninety-eight. The organization of the house continued throughout the semester
and over the summer and came to a culmination in October at the ribbon-cutting ceremony. Before
this, the women of Turner ate at the Union Outpost while they shared a cook with Kappa Sig. Turner
House undertook its first big service project by organizing the Winter Wonderland for children at the
Ada Jenkins Community Center this fall where proceeds went to the after school program held there.
The Turner frogs are a great new addition to Davidson's Patterson Court.

ope You Had the
Time of Your Life

Four years ago we all chose a road— a road
that led to Davidson. We all had different rea-
sons for choosing this road, different hopes and
dreams about where this road would take us. but
by choosing this particular road, we all joined in
a common journey.

Do you remember the first time you stepped
on this campus? Did you ever think that it would
turn out this way? That this sea of strange faces
might become as familiar as your own hand? That
the girl sitting across from you in orientation
might one day be your best friend? Or that all
these brick buildings and brick walkways and
huge trees- that one day you might think of this
as home? Did you ever think that you could
change, grow, learn, laugh, cry, live, or love so
much?

Our common road has led to common bonds,
and memories, good friends and a strong foun-
dation on which to place our futures. As our time
here comes to an end, it is important to remem-
ber the friends, the lessons, and the moments.
Many of us will take new roads now, to find our
place in the "real world . Where will your road
take you?

It has been a wonderful trip. Let us always
celebrate the memories and the times that we
shared on our journey through Davidson.

"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Live the
life you 've always imagined. " -Thoreau

I reflect back on this four year
journey, I am fascinated with the trans-
formations that many of us have expe-
rienced here at Davidson. I am con-
vinced that we have all changed for the
better in some way and we owe that to
the environment that Davidson has
leased to us for four years. Davidson,
unlike most other places, has provided
us with so many opportunities to grow
and discover who we are and what we
are here for. It would be easy for many
of us to complain about the GPAs we
will graduate with or how we could
have done twice as better with half the
amount of work at other schools, but
that does no good. You need to look at
the priceless goods that you are leav-
ing this institution with after four years.
They easily outweigh a mediocre GPA
or having to study 10 hours for a rou-
tine exam. Think of the great friends
you have made over the years and how
you have grown and changed together.
Think of the new hobbies and interests

that you have acquired. We have
learned the value of hard work and how
to endure through adverse conditions at
times. We have obtained new mean-
ings of what honor and integrity are.
We have become better people who will
impact society in positive ways.

Some of us may have mixed emo-
tions about our plans for next year. We
will be thrown into new theaters with
new characters and new story lines. The
show is by no means over, my friends.
We are merely changing the set before
the next act begins. And unlike previ-
ous acts in which the results were pre-
ordained, we control the rest of the
show now.

You are the conductor of a high
powered locomotive that will ramble

down the tracks in whatever direction
you please. It is all right if you don't
know where the train is headed right
now. You can steer it in any direction
and see how you like the route. It is
never too late to change the direction
of the train. Just make sure the train is
never dormant and is always moving
regardless of whether it has a definite
destination.

Instincts and heart are crucial ele-
ments in the decision making process.
It is quite simple though because all you
have to do is follow them. Don't be
worried about immediate compensation
and immediate status. Find something

Martin Court: Life in the Senior Apartments -Emiiy Eagan

Life in the Senior Apartments is not
something that can be described readily in a
yearbook article. Unfortunately for me, my
friends have threatened to kill me if 1 don't try.
Though I am unemployed at the moment, death
doesn't sound all that exciting, so here goes:
Wow. They gave us our own apartments and
told us to start living like adults. No problem.
It's JUST like the real world, I promise. I am
sure that in the real world I will frequently see
huge parties on people's porches where the
primary activity is to throw furniture and watch
it break. I'm sure that everyone has eight cases
of beer in their refrigerator at all times. Oh, and
people in the real world never use keys. No,
they always have these outdated button things
that never work on their doors.

I love living in the apartments because
all of my friends are down here too. It's cool to
"go somewhere" to visit, not just walk down the
hall. Yet Senior slackness shines through even
when you are visiting friends. I love going over
to someone else's apartment because mine is
boring only to find that they are watching TV,
too. There are very few activities that take
place within a Senior apartment. TV watching
is certainly one, but then there is drinking on
the front porch, bouncing off of furniture in a fit
of Davidson-induced psychosis, throwing things
(guys only), singing along to the stereo (girls
only), making pasta for the 97th time, and
various others that I can't really go into. Of
course my favorite thing about the apartments is
5:30 am fire drills. Awww, yeah! Everyone in
their natural state, bleary-eyed and shivering in
the rain (it always seems to be raining during
fire drills). It's always interesting to see who
comes out of the building: "Wait, I thought he
was a Sophomore!"

All in all, the apartments rule. Hope-
fully I have given a few reasons why I think so,
but there are so many more. Everyone's
memories of Senior Apartments will be differ-
ent, but I hope everyone would agree that it has
been quite a year. Living in Martin Court is one
of those Davidson experiences (like seeing
pledges run naked on Self-Selection night) that
is difficult to describe, but impossible to do
without.

one will forget, but a few may
want to burn their outfits.

party. There are many other parties on campus

the outfit, the better the party becomes. Davidson
students like to leave behind their old preppy
clothes and enter a new world of fashion.

The Big 21!

Take a walk on the wild side...

So, you're finally 21 ! Now you can legally buy alcohol and party in
the basement. How does it feel? You can escape the dreaded underfreshmen
by running downstairs and hiding. You can abandon your friends who are
unfortunate and young. You can now hang out with the older kids at
Davidson. You can complain about running beers up and down the stairs
while being accosted by younger kids.

Do you even remember your birthday- a bunch of friends, a few
drinks, and maybe you even prayed to the ceramic gods. Ah, the things
you try to forget but never can. These are the memories that will never be
forgotten. These are the friends that will be with you forever. Celebrate
this time while you can.

The 21st birthday is a huge event in a Davidson student's college ca-
reer. You can now go to 2 1 -year-old night, buy fun stuff at the ABC store,
and become an adult where nothing is forbidden. Be careful not to get too
caught up. Remember, you are an adult now. Good luck!

Kangaroos,

and the

Queen?

After two years of living at Davidson, many
Juniors decide to leave the comfort of the States
behind and travel to new, exotic places around
the world. Many Juniors leave their best friends
behind for a semester of adventure and excite-
ment. The Juniors that go abroad hit many new
places and meet up with old friends. Germany,
Kenya, Zimbabwe, China, Spain, England,
Scotland, France, Australia, and Italy are just a
few of the countries where our fellow Davidson
classmates study.

A handshake with a kangaroo, a party with
the elephants, and a picture in front of
Buckingham palace are just a few of the stories
we can share. We have learned about a new
culture, studied a foreign language, and met
many new people, but we will not forget our
friends back home. We have so many stories to
tell and new experiences to remember. Study-
ing abroad is the most amazing experience, and
we will never forget our time away from the
Big "D." We are all excited about being to-
gether again in the senior apartments, but be-
fore that happens we need to find our way back
home...

Hall Counselors

Reliving freshman
year...

If I could turn back
time...

If I could find a way, I'd re-
live freshman year. As crazy
as it sounds to some, it's ex-
actly what hall counselors do.
Accurately describing the
many roles of a Davidson hall
counselor remains almost im-
possible. If you put an infor-
mation desk, a police chief, a
role model, a "Dear Abby" col-
umn, a friend, and half the en-
ergy in the world into one per-
son, you still would not have
everything it takes to face the
challenge of a freshmen hall.

After completing my fresh-
man year, I always thought it
would be great to do it all over
again knowing what I know
now, and I have to tell you, it's
been fabulous! Being a hall
counselor means the fun of
flickerball, mixers, and the
Baker Olympics without the
hassle of PE 101 or discover-
ing the day-of that "review"
really means "test." Observ-
ing my freshmen fine-tune
email into the beautiful art of

procrastination brought tears of
nostalgia and pride to my eyes.

I didn't realize, however, that
the night before freshman orien-
tation would be my last sound
sleep, that mixers don't plan
themselves, or that crises aren't
always conventiently scheduled.
And the questions, questions,
questions! Now I understand
how a Jeopardy contestant feels.
I still can't explain Internet in-
stallation procedures and do not
know the exact time in seconds
it requires to complete a work
order.

Despite all the hardships, be-
ing a hall counselor has given
me more laughs, smiles, enter-
tainment, and joy than I could
have imagined. My girls have
become invaluable friends and
are 34 of the best roommates
anyone could ask for. Never
have I used so much energy in
one year, but if I could turn back
time, I would definitely do it all
over again.

mean that that extra helping doesn't count!

8. That last pint really might not be a good

7. Fashion is relative.

6. There are places you can "study" where you

don't have to work hard to make good grades.

5. There's no escape from traveling Davidson

students no matter how far you may run.

4. The under-21 drinking age is GOOD!

3. Free Coke refills do not exist any where else

on earth.

David M.
Farrington

May 6, 1978- April 4, 1999

When David Michael Farrington
passed away on Easter Sunday, a terrible
blow was dealt to those who knew him
well. Perhaps the greatest testimony to
Dave's life can be seen in the impact he
had on those around him. His passing
reminds all of us of the fragility of life
and the importance of good friends. We
will remember the joy with which Dave
lived his life, the uniquely brilliant mind
with which he made sense out of the
world, the vigor and determination with
which he faced opposition, and the timely
smile he used to comfort his less steady
companions. As long as Dave is remem-
bered, part of him will remain in this
world. We miss and love you, Dave.

be a Sophomore

10. You can wear clothes on Self-Selection.

8. Living down the hill

(closer to the semi-circle of sin! )
7. You finally know the difference between

the work you're told to do and the work

you actually have to do.
6. Going abroad is that much closer.
5. No longer known as " that freshman."
4. Still young enough to avoid thinking

about your future.
3. You*ve learned the library isn't the best place

to get work done.
2. You know the prof's name and course level

is important.

Sophomores Step Up

Whether it was on the court or in the Union, sophomores stepped up to take
leadership roles. The Class of 2001 was represented on the SGA, the Union Board,
Reach Out, the Davidsonian editorial board, the Honor Council, the Patterson
Court Council, the Photography Club and numerous other organizations. Sopho-
mores held the positions of SGA Vice-President, Quips & Cranks Editor-in-Chief
and Turner House President. Helping to organize such events as Into the Streets,
the Sustainable Campus Development Conference, and Mulit-Cultural Kids Day,
sophomores improved their leadership and planning skills. The Class of 2001 also
demonstrated responsibility through weekly commitments, such as the positions of
Davidsonian news editors, op-ed editor, sports editor, and business managers, and
chairing committees, such as the Rape Awareness Committee, the Environmental
Action Committee, and Council on Minority Affairs. In addition, sophomores
proved that they had big hearts through chairing Reach Out committees, including
Habitat for Humanity and the Pines Fellowship. Through their activities, the sopho-
mores proved they had the necessary leadership skills. —Carrie Arthur

rhe Odyssey ■ a
wilderness
adventure that is

more fun than it looks. It is
freshmen bonding at its very
best. These students have
gear for an entire week on
their backs.

rerra Gill, Jamie
Gilmore and Abby
Johnson-Reid smile
through the grease and grime
as their Odyssey journey left
them a few too many miles
away from a shower.

Deep in the woods of
North Carolina, the laughter of
soon-to-be Davidson freshmen
is heard. It's part of the Odys-
sey- a pre-orientation adventure
created to allow incoming fresh-
men to become acquainted with
their classmates and their new
school. The trip includes three
days of of hiking along the Ap-
palachian Trail, two days river
canoeing, a service project and
a day spent however they
choose. Rain and poison ivy
may prove temporary obstacles,
but having seven new friends be-
fore orientation makes it all
worthwhile. Wonderful friend-
ships are born and the memories
made will last forever.

Top Ten Reasons
Why You Didn't Win the
1998 Freshmen Cake
Race:

10. Confusing detours to
get around all the campus

construction got you lost.
9. The plastic orange fencing

lining the sidewalk tripped

you up.

8. Put on the wrong shoes.
7. Didn't put on shoes.
6. Since it was the only time

you were allowed on the

Court for the next two

months, you decided to

enjoy it.
5. Stopped by Ben & Jerry's

for a Vermonster.
4. Didn't have enough bonus

bucks to buy a Powerbar at

the Union before the race.
3. That guy you tripped was

President Vagt.
2. Didn't wear a tie.
1 . The cross country team !

lickerball

Somewhere between the
NFL and the PeeWee leagues lies
Flickerball, the Davidson intra-
mural sport that is as much tradi-
tion as all-nighters. Flickerball
was probably the brain-child of
the kids who were always chosen
last for pick-up football games.
Since they couldn't play football,
their bitterness led them to create
a quirky little game that combines
football with rugby and has rules
that are impossible to understand.
At any rate, Flickerball '98 was a
great season, complete with refs
in cowboy boots, some friendly
trash talking, lots of ball-flicking
and the occasional finger-flicking.
Yes, flickerball was alive and
well, and we novice freshmen

quickly learned that it was more
than your typical intramural. In
fact, flickerball rivalries were
quite intense, but they brought
halls together quicker than any
mixer ever did.

etting Acquainted

Patterson Court was of-
ficially off-limits for fresh-
men during the first month of
school. The hope was that we
would spend the time bond-
ing among ourselves. Conse-
quently, our beloved hall
counselors organized many a
creative hall mixer. Ideas
ranged from slip n slide with
chocolate sauce to dinners at
Lotus 28 and everything in
between. Two halls learned
to salsa dance while they got
acquainted while others opted
to smear each other with cake.
However messy the method,
getting to know each other
sure was fun.

Andersen is ti lucky guy to be
captured on film with these
beauties.

The social life of a
Davidson freshman was really
quite hectic during first semes-
ter. In between hall mixers,
theme parties and Homecom-
ing there were four semi-
formals to spice up one's life.
Each one of the eating houses
hosted a dance and created a
theme for the evening. As a
result, most of the pressure to
find dates and organize dinner
plans fell on the freshwomen.
Three dances were held in the
respective houses on the court,
but Turner held something a
little more original. Since
Turner House was still under-

going its final stages of con-,
struction, its dance was held in
a tent outside commons.
Sutdents danced the night away
in the fresh October air under
the stars.

Some halls opted to em-
ploy the "screw your room-
mate" technique, and have
roommates set each other up on
blind dates for a dance. Semi-
formals proved yet another ef-
fective way to mingle with
schoolmates.

elf-Selection

The cheers from the eat-
ing houses erupted as the fe-
male members, both new and
old, witnessed a mob of naked,
crazed guys run toward them
over the hill. This special day
started early for the
freshwomen as well as the rest
of the campus, when the eat-
ing houses stormed the fresh-
men dorms to pluck their cho-
sen few from warm beds. The
guys, having already accepted
bids at their preferred fraterni-
ties, began the celebration later
that night. Self-Selection was
not just an ordinary night of
parties and full moons, but in-

stead a starting point for the
strong bonds and loyalties de-
veloped among social house
members.

SGA

This year the SGA was extremely active.
The organization continued to support and run the
Vamanos Van. All Senators were van-certified and
the SGA was responsible for driving each Thursday
night of the year. Perhaps our greatest achievements
came in the area of increasing the awareness of the
diversity of the Davidson College campus. In
October, the SGA held a Race Forum in the
Chambers Gallery that was attended by almost half
the student body. Also, we worked tirelessly to
convince the school to fully recognize Dr. Martin
Luther King Jr. Day. Another success came when
the SGA was able to improve the state of the Union
Cafe by facilitating the return of many of the
students' favorite items. We also held the annual
SGA day where the senators cooked hamburgers
and hot dogs. The committees and councils were
very active and gave students a way to get involved
in campus affairs. Furthermore, we led the annual
SGA Phone- A-Thon to raise money for the college.
One final project that highlighted the year was the
approval of the massive ATC budget. This year
has been tremendous for the SGA and gave the
organization a way to serve our friends, our college,
and the Davidson community.

Honor Council

The Honor Council, led by Asa Hercules and Paul Eubanks, worked under a new committee system designed to meet
the needs of the campus. The committees included Red Book Revision, Faculty Relations, Campus Forum and
Publicity. Additionally, the Code's wording was significantly changed this year, and the Council has found this
change helpful. The Council is constantly trying to educate the campus about the Code and works toward
maintaining Davidson as an institution bound by honor.

Choir

Under the experienced baton of interim director David Tang, conductor of the Charlotte Oratorio Singers and
associate conductor of the Charlotte Symphony Orchestra, the Davidson College Concert Choir and Chamber Singers had
a productive season with a variety of unique opportunities. With Dr. Donna DiGrazia leaving the podium and Davidson
for a position at Pomona College in California, Mr. Tang, graciously and energetically filled in during this transitional
year for the choir while the music department held a national search for a permanent conductor.

Not only did the Concert Choir perform beautifully at the annual Christmas Vespers service, but only a few weeks
into the semester demonstrated its talent and musicality at a Parents' Weekend concert, something new for the choir. The
Spring program included a highly successful concert and a performance of Mahler's second symphony with the Charlotte
Symphony Orchestra.

The Chamber Singers had their annual Fall Concert in November, performing both in Davidson College Presbyte-
rian Church and in Charlotte. The program included a varied repetoire of styles and time periods from the Renaissance O
Magnum Mysteriumby Tomas Louis de Victoria, to the twentieth century, with an arrangement of Ev'ry Time I Feel the
Spirit by Fenno Heath. In the spring, they joined with the Davidson College Symphony Orchestra, under the baton of Dr.
Richard Prior, to perform the Vivaldi Gloria in DCPC.

Orchestra

The Davidson College Symphony Orchestra, under the
direction of Dr. Richard Prior, is one of the principal
campus emsembles. Now in its fifth season, the
symphony consists of sixty students and faculty
drawn from all disciplines. The orchestra occasionally
invites the participation of community members and high
school students. Rehearsing twice a week, the symphony
presents several concerts each semester on campus and in
the surrounding community. Two major performances have
been in Charlotte, one to benefit the American Cancer
Society. The symphony's repetoire ranges from the
Baroque to the twentieth-century, including major works
such as Beethoven's Fifth Symphony and Copland's
Appalachian Spring. Providing a platform for student and
professional musicians, the symphony often presents
concertos, which in the fifth season included Shostakovich
Piano Concerto No.l with Cynthia Lawing and Dr. William
Lawing in the fall. In the spring, the symphony performed
the Lalo Cello Concerto in D minor with the second DCSO
Concerto Competition winner, Lauren Baird. In addition,
two DCSO concerts have been broadcasted on WDAV.
Showcasing student talent and providing the community
with symphonic music, the Davidson College Symphony
Orchestra continues to enrich life at Davidson.

Pep Band

When this year's seniors were freshmen, the Pep
Band had fallen out of existence. Do a little dance and stand
up and shout, 'cause WE'RE BACK! For the second year in
a row, the Pep Band has filled Belk Arena with the sounds
of the fight song, "Call Me Al" and "Zoot Suit Riot" at
men's and women's basketball games. We also packed up
and went to Charlotte for the Duke game and Greensboro
for the Southern Conference Tournament. Open to anyone
who can find their old horn and still blow, we hope to see
our numbers grow. Good luck to both teams next year-
we're ready to go back to the Big Dance. Thanks to the Fast
Break Club for all the support. And thanks to our high
school players: Britt, Ginger, Gayle, Jason, Steve, Dan and
Micheal— we couldn't have done it without you.

Reach Out

This year Davidson students gave up afternoons to
tutor at Ada Jenkins, woke up Saturday mornings to build
Habitat houses, and braved the rain to raise money for
CROP Walk. In all, twenty different Reach Out programs

ISA

One of the more colorful niches of diversity at
Davidson, the International Students Association serves
both campus and community, enticing them to awareness of
the world's cultural riches through an exotic smattering of
presentations and festivals. The fall semester opened with
the International Festival, aromas of biryani and jollif rice
wafting through the Union as internationals offered local
dishes for people to savor as they browsed kiosks of each
nation represented by ISA, feasting their eyes on displays
of flags, textiles and artwork. Chinese New Year of the
Rabbit was ushered in in grand style with an aesthetically-
pleasing and often hilarious lion dance in front of Cham-
bers, which was followed by a martial arts exhibition and a
catered presentation on Chinese culture. Holi, a Hindu
festival of colors, met with an enthusiastic response for its
novelty, (never before having been seen at Davidson) and
racousness. ISA helped to organize Mulitcultural Kids Day,
an arts & crafts version of the International Festival for
children, as well as adding an international to the the
Women's Issues Month in its poster series and lunehtime
quiz. Indeed, ISA brought the world to Davidson.

Established in the spring of 1998, the
Organization of Latin American Students

works to heighten awareness of the international
news events, cultural holidays, and native customs
that are integral in exerting Hispanic presence on
our college campus. We have sponsored Latino
dance workshops and brought El Sazon, a combo
band, to campus several times. During May,
students can relieve stress from exams at our
Cinco de Mayo study break. This fall we were all
amazed to see how beautifully the celebration of
Dia de los Muertos turned out. Hispanic history is
recognized during the month of October and
OLAS created a bulletin board to promote educa-
tion about famous Latin Americans. We are trying
to shift emphasis to the community by volunteer-
ing our time in day care, translation work and
other projects that allow students to act as bridges
between English speakers and Spanish speakers.
The founding board of officers last year
included Mauricio Sauma as President. Marie
Sharp as Vice-President, Magdalena Barbosa as
secretary, and Agatha Degasperi as treasurer. This
year the officers are Sarah Roberson, Alex
Obregon, Ina Spachar and Brent Wilson. The
name OLAS was chosen because the acronym
appropriately means "waves" in the Spanish
language. We are proud to announce that we have
helped West Charlotte High School establish their
own branch of OLAS. We chartered this chapter
because we saw a great need for an organization
providing support to the many Hispanic students
who attend high school in our area. Although
there may be confusion due to the specific nature
of our organization's name, students from any
nationality may join as long as achieving an
understanding of the Hispanic culture is an impor-
tant aspect of their college education. -Sarah

Sanctuary/ Eumenean
Literary Society

Sanctuary is a Christian fellowship that focuses on
faith and service. Sanctuary sponsors events such as
Room in the Inn and the Alternative Gift Fair. The organi-
zation also meets every week to hear speakers or to study
scripture.

Sanctuary members: Jody Moore, Ben Covington, Janice
Baker, Adam Sanders, Sarah Davis, Cader Howard,
Claire Campp, Michelle Markey

Founded on April 14, 1837, before classes first convened, the Eumenean Literary Society continues to foster
e acquirement of literary knowledge, the promotion of virtue, and the cultivation of social harmony and friendship at
>avidson College. In the past year, the Society has grown as students have been invited to membership and initiated according
its traditions. Of course, guests were always welcome at the regular meetings in hall to discuss readings on a broad range of

topics including Scripture as
Literature, Agony and
Esctasy, Compelling Female
Characters, the Darker
Passions, Expressions of
Faith, and Original Works. To
these meetings, those in
attendance brought passages
appropriate to the topic as
well as enthusiasm to discuss
the selections chosen by
others in a convivial
atmosphere. Although the
historic and amicable rivalry
with the Philanthropic
Society continues, it did not
precipitate any duels.

The Society issued diplomas to three graduating members: O. Lee Burnett 111. past President:

Ultimate Frisbee
Service Council

The Ulitmate Frisbee Club team is in its maturing
phase and is steadily improving. This year we played in
many tournaments with the colleges that are in the sur-
rounding area. We also made our first trip to Sectionals
this year, which is a step in the direction of moving to a
national powerhouse.

The team had many returning players that helped
the incoming players adapt to the lifestyle here and more
importantly, how to play frisbee! These people indlude
some of the stars soon to be seen on the national circuit:
Geoff 'the Buffalo' Evans, Andy 'El Commandante'
Rhodes, Joe ' the Supreme' Slember, Coddy 'Head Guy'
Coddington and many more. The freshpeople, or whatever
we call them now, enjoyed the games, tournaments and
especially the socks. We hope next year to maintain our
current level of play and perhaps even become a threat
here in the state of North Carolina.

The Service Council successfully completed
its first full year under the leadership of
Jill Williams and Brian Campbell. The
Council worked to increase communication
among service groups on campus, and
scheduled innovative programs designed
to address many of the challenges that
students involved with service at Davidson
face. The Council looks forward to facing
new challenges and further promoting
meaningful service in the years to come.

Photography Club
DIFA/ Pre-Med &AED

As a relatively new organization on the Davidson campus, the Davidson Photography Club has focused on its
mission statement this year. The club is dedicated to increasing awareness of photography as an art form. To achieve its
goals, the Photography Club has made a presence for itself within the Davidson area by exhibiting in the college union,
sponsoring activities on campus and covering events on campus such as the Lunar Luau, the Day of the Dead and
Mulitcultural Kids Day.

Plans for the spring semester materialized in the form of Women's Month in March, which highlighted respected
women in the Davidson community and teaching more people about photography. Other activities included outings to
Mooresville, a DO trip to explore nature photography, and sponsoring a day to restore photographs belonging to commu-
nity members. The officers of the Photography Club are Matt Clifford, Christa Wagner, Matt West, Amber Worrell and
Maryann Loman.

This year saw the start of a new group on campus, the Davidson Investment and Finance Association (DIFA). The

ub was founded for the purpose of educating students about investing and analyzing the stock market. Taking their cue from
om similar organizations at Washington and Lee, Notre Dame, and UNCC, the club keeps Davidson competitive as more
:hools seek to give their undergraduates an exposure to real world finances and investing beyond the theoretical realm of
conomic courses. The club was granted $200,000 by the Board of Trustees in October. The roughly thirty student members of
IFA meet weekly to present their research, debate the merits of various companies, and vote on stocks to buy and sell. The
•oup is aided by the talents of faculty advisor Clark Ross and administrative liaison Burton Hudson, from Davidson College's
usiness and Finance Office. New members are always welcome; it's never too early to start learning about how to invest, the
ist way to safeguard your future.

Pi Kappa Alpha

here are a lot of great four-
letter words, but it all comes
down to FRAT. Although
many have tarnished the word
"frat" with their antics and
shenanigans, we take pride in
upholding the high ideals of
Greek Manhood. Our ancient
Greek forefathers taught us
that physical fitness and high
endurance in the face of strife
are of chief importance.
Although our mascara ran in
the sweltering month of
August, with dehydrated
bodies and blurred vision we

redefined flickerball and

wiffeball without breaking a
single heel. We are proud of
our six-packs. As any aspiring
Greek knows, "men of action
seek a life of virtue." Despite
losing the intellectual
leadrship of the stalwart
Vince Diamond and the
perennial Chazz Victory, our
overall GPA did not fall
below a 3.9. We maintained
impeccable taste in music,
served only the finest malt
beverages, and by providing
shelter for the Davidson
community we led the
campus in service. Inspired
by Dionysus, the god of
Thunderbird, we applied our
high ideals to the realm of true
Greek assembly. With our

shirts off and our brothers
crowded around the foosball
table, we entertained honeys
from many different nations.
Thanks to the lengthy search
by Brother Toto, we once
again ensured that our
dreamgirl was the dreamiest.
The beautiful Davidson babes
may not admit to loving us,
but we all know they're just
playing hard to get. A true
Greek man must persevere.
After such successful soirees
as Glam Rock, Senio
Champagne Party, 70's Party,
and the going-away dance fo:
Anything for Money, smal
house repairs were necessary.
Using funds from our black-
market organ sales, we
refurbished the house with a
Jacuzzi, Jai Alai court, and
diving board on the roof (pool
to be added later). In short, we
have assembled the mosi
perfect group of beer-swilling
ne'er-do-wells ever bound by
fraternal love. No one has
done more to set the standards
of virtue than we have.
Quoting Aristotle, we have
"redefined the art of living
and imitated it." Aristotle was
not a PiKA. but wanted to be
very, very badly. As we gi
"motorin"' into the ne'
millenium, we invite all
warriors, freebirds, and
questionable characters to
share our wine and cheese,
and enjoy the ride. We truly
live the ancient Greek creed:
"It is better to burn out than
fade." Just maintainin' and
swervulatin'-DFWB

Connor House

The women of Connor gathered together for yet another year of scholarship, service, and fun. They
expressed their diverse talents through participation in student government, theater, music, athletics, and
many other campus organizations. Whether serving as hall counselors or tutoring local students, Connor
women demonstrated their continuing commitment to this campus and to the surrounding community.
Service projects this year included working at Ada Jenkins and volunteering in Charlotte's hospitals, as
well as building homes with Habitat for Humanity. Receiving the Patterson Court Scholarship Award
this fall, Connor women proved once again that Davidson Students can work hard and still have a great

time.
Among the social highlights of the fall semester were a "Twilight Zone" semi-formal, a comedian
Crush Party, and the annual Ladies' Lock-In. During the spring semester, Connor welcomed a new
group of women to the court with a wild Self-Selection celebration. House bonding continued as fresh-
man met upperclassmen while watching ER each week. Screw Your Sister added to the fun, giving big
and little sisters a chance to find the perfect date for each other. Formal proved to be the social high
point of the semester once again, as Connor women danced the night away to their favorite music.
With this exciting year drawing to a close and preparations beginning for another, Connor must say
good-bye to its graduating seniors. They will be greatly missed, and the members of Connor wish them

all the best.

Phi Delta Theta

It has got to be the blacklights.
No one really understands the attraction, but late night at
any house around the Court, when the DJ has spun the last
record and the drummer has put down his sticks, everyone
knows the night isn't really over. It's time for late night at
Phi Delt. Even while on probation for the first half of the fall
semester, Phi Delt logged more attendees at their improptu
parties than any other house on the Court. It could be, per-
haps, the most entertaining fraternity of them all.
For no other fraternity offers such thrills as the famous
"Airband" lipsynch contest, or its x-rated version, "Ladies'
Night." They just don't come close. Toga party exhibited a
raw disply of brotherhood bonding, while the Blacklight

Beach Party gave many the chance to escape to
Margaritaville in mid-January, in a house heated to 90 de-
grees. And, in an earnest display of want for the diversifica-
tion and religious education of Davidson College, the broth-
ers changed the name of the annual "Christmas Cocktails" to
"Hanukah Harvest."
Phi Delt continued their dedication to service and com-
munity with the organization of another successful golf
tournament for the fight against Lou Gehrig's Disease.
Phi Delta Theta members are more than dedicated
students of Davidson College, for members of varsity athletic
teams comprise over half of the fraternity. But Phi Delts are
even more than athletes, the are the most spirited supportes of
all other team - both men's and women's. Members of Phi
Delt attended more athletic events than any other organiza-
tion of Davidson College. The most notable fan contribution
came in the Spring, when Phi Delts were found in the right
field of every baseball game, tirelessly heckling the opponent.
So no on e can really explain the attraction to blacklights
and Phi Delt. But they go hand in nan, just as a good time
does with the exceptional brothers of Phi Delta Theta.

Sigma Alpha Epsilon

The true gentlemen of Sigma Alpha Epsilon had an
exceptional year in all aspects of life at Davidson College.
Beginning in the summer, the committed brothers demon-
strated their philanthropy by producing and selling the annual
charity calenday to benefit E. H. Little Library. The enthusi-
asm carried over through Rush as the Hoddy House brought
together thirteen strong, tightly-knit pledges. Rush also
produced the camaraderie on which the brothers of Sigma
Alpha Epsilon pride themselves. The brothers could be seen
together all around campus from tailgating before football
games to selling calendars through the dormitories of
Davidson College. The closeness of the members of SAE
was apparent in all of their social events and brotherhoods.

The Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity did not limit its
efforts exclusively to social events. Instead it spent countless
hours giving back to the community through events such as
the Crop Lunch. Run Under the Stars, the Bike-a-Thon for the
Ada Jenkins Center, and Halloween at the YMCA. Finally,
through the tireless work of the brothers during their summer
break and early on during the school year, the Charity Calen-
dar, the fraternity's largest service project, was once again a
success, adding to the endowed book fund for E. H. Little
Library.

Socially, the Hoddy House once again contributed to
much fun on and off Patterson Court. SAE parties featured
such bands as Second Hand Jive, Baaba Seth, Deep Banana
Blackout. The Hill, The Campaign, and the Frogmoors.
Sigman Alpha Epsilon also sponsored the biggest band party
of fall Rush with the Blue Dogs. Finally, Tacky Party, our
biggest party of the fall, brought the students of Davidson
College out for a night of Hoddiness dressed in their "best."
The spring semester saw the return of the popular 80's Prom
Party, Spring Frolics, and the annual alumni golf tournament.
Thanks to the efforts of current brothers and the members
before us, we were able to continue the tradition of Hoddy
Pride. We would like to thank all of our alumni for their
generous support, caring, and contributions. Finally, the
efforts of Stephen Lilly. James Tayberry, Angus Billy, and
Haugh D. Balls are recognized for they contributed greatly to
the success of Sigma Alpha Epsilon.

The Brothers of Sigma Alpha Epsilon are: Merritt Abney, Alex Aldrich,

Matt Arhuckle, Freeman Belser. Hall Berry, B.J. Berenguer Andrew
Bowman. Taylor Bit.x, John Clapp. Andy Coddington, Dare Drum. Blair
Easton. McNain Evens, Joey Ferguson, Ben Gates, Scott Groat, Schylar

The women of

Warner Hall

The women of Warner Hall had an awesome year yet again !
We participated in service projects and enjoyed social functions.
But most excitingly, Warner Hall welcomed a new cook to the
house, Candice. The fall got off to a great start with Crush
Party and Oyster Roast. Also, members actively participated
in the Crop Walk in November to raise money for hunger
awareness. In December the house sponsored a small child.
Members of the house bought her new toys and clothes in order
to give her a Merry Christmas. In addition to our service projects
in the fall, Warner Hall hosted its first annual Madonnarama,
an occasion to wear lovely 80's attire. Our semi-formal. Bungle
in the Jungle, was a hit in November, and everyone loved the
house decorated with wild, exotic animals.

The house also joined in our "Goal GPA" program.
Each member set a standard for themselves, and if they achieved
it, they were awarded with new Warner Hall bumper stickers!

Wappa-Happas welcomed their new members in
January at Self-Selection. Fifty freshwomen joined our house,
so Warner Hall celebrated in style with champagne, chocolate
sauce and easy cheese.

Big Sis/Little Sis week helped to further bond the house
together with fun parties and surprises. The Spring Formal was
in Winston-Salem's Millenium Center. In April, we hosted our
first Draft-A-Date which included mud, waterguns and lots of
noodles. Warner Hall wrapped up the year with Patio Party
and sent the class of 1999 off with the Senior Roast.

Kappa Sigma

1998-99 was once again an exciting year for the fine gentlemen
affectionately known as the Squids. The scarlet, green, and white finally
made its wat to the upstairs walls thanks to the backbreaking paint work
of several ambitious brothers, and our back wall was fixed after a mere 2
years and 20 work orders.

Kappa Sig continued to show its pension for nakedness, as Self-
Selection night seemed to have no end. Mrs. Hollis added to the grease
intake of the brothers, though Turner House tried to turn us into herbi-
vores for the entire first semester. We also filled our quota for short
pledges, bad grades in economics, and great success on the backyard
basketball court. Homeruns for Habitat was a big winner this year, and
we have gone corporate in order to make our 10th and final MADD Run
the best ever.

There were parties, foodfights, and an occasional appearence by
alumni. The welcoming of 18 new brothers this spring only added to the
exceptional character of Kappa Sig. So now the seniors leave the
aquarium under great protest (in other words, very few job offers), but in
very capable hands... kicking it Sigma-style as always. A to B!!

Kappa Alpha

Fall of 1998 proved to be an unprecendented year for the Grand Old Order of the South. For the first
time in many years, KA avoided probation and was able to continue the fall with no restrictions. This
catalyst proved to be all that the brothers of KA needed. After First Night Down, KA took contol of Monday
nights, engaging in games of Beirut and pool on our newly acquired table. Trying to stop us was analogous
to shooting a BB at a freight train. Get your button downs, SUVs and Croakies, because the frat dogs are
back in full effect.

We still remained leaders in the Davidson community through increased participation in such things
as community service projects, soccer, tennis, football, golf, wrestling, and rugby teams, student
publications such as the Davidsonian and the Libertas, and the Honor Council. Also, we held another
KArnival in the spring to help our chapter charity, the Muscular Dystrophy Association. Lastly, our parents'
weekend and faculty barbeques were great successes.

We had a truly fantastic semester. Besides our infamous late night jams, events such as Hurricane
Hugo, Homecoming with Dean Dollar. Space Jam with The Brothership, and the first and second ever
Beirut tournaments stunned the student body. Yes, we are that cool.

On a serious note, we would like to list some of our accomplishments. As a house, versus foreign
opponents, we hold a .963 winning percentage in Beirut, led by a couple seniors from Philly. Our days of
wearing soccer cleats and backwards hats and sitting on the walls at parties are over. We have moved the
couches into the house to sit on at parties. Please note the changes. Our house GPA of 0.4 was the highest
among KA chapters on campus. With the addition of our pool table, we are now involved in a gambling ring
at the pub, which has proved very lucrative. We have decided to invest the money in building a replica of the
Rusk porch so that we can continue throwing bottles.

Turner House

This year was a momentous one in the history of Patterson Court as Turner House was established. After a semester of

hard work the spring before, this fall, Turner House had its debut on the Court. In the spring of 1998, a group of Davidson

women got together with the idea to start a new women's eating house. With a membership of 79 girls in the fall, Turner

House is small, yet rapidly growing. Although our house was under construction most of the fall. Turner girls pulled together

in a remarkable show of spirit and enthusiam to establish ourselves on the court. The first semester was a memorable one as

we established new traditions and formed lasting friendships.
We kicked off fall semester by falling into the Bermuda Triangle- a night that brought the girls together like non had
before. The stars came out for our fall semi-formal, Hollywood Nights. Girls donned boas, long black gloves, and sunglasses
o dance the night away in a tent under the stars. At last the big day arrived. On November 7, 1998, construction on the house
was completed and the celebration was on! Girls gathered at the house Saturday afternoon for a ribbon cutting ceremony with
our namesake, Katherin Turner, her family and friends, and Davidson faculty and administration. But the party did not end
here... as the sun went down, we were just getting started. The whole campus was invited to come down to our new "pad" and
christen the house for the Grad Opening Event. From then on, Turner girls were busy preparing the house and paingint out
tables, plus organizing the first annual Winter Wonderland Carnival held at Ada Jenkins. Before the semester was over, we
practiced our dance moves as we learned to swing dance at My Tie.
Our first self-selection was a blast, as we welcomed our newest members to the house. Our freshmen, or "tadpoles" as we
affectionately called them, were literally swimming though the house that evening. For our spring semi-formal, all our fanta-
sies came true with Once Upon a Time as we headed up to our castle on the hill. This was followed up by Big Sis/Lil Sis and
more Turner bonding. Of course, Prince Charming Austin Rios was always on hand to give the Turner girls a "royally" good

time! The Senior Formal in Charlotte was an elegant affair, complete with the lively music of The Maxx, and before the
semester was over, we took one last chance to party at Spring Fling. For this event, we headed outdoors for an afternoon of

croquet and bocce ball in the sun.
All in all, Turner's first year at Davidson was an absolute success!

Rusk House

This year has been, once again, nothing short ot fabulous lor the
Ruskies. As usual we started off the year in style with our annual "Welcome
Back" late night. We had our first chance to really meet some freshwomen
as we hosted a tailgate party before the first nighttime football game. All the
girls had a great time mingling with the freshmen and cheering on the team.
Lamoureux and Lindsay managed to kee Destination unknown a secret, tak-
ing us first to a fun park for a crack at go-carts, putt-putt, and batting cages.
Then it was back to the quarry for a night of hotdogs, s'mores, and beer.
Even though the band didn"t show, we still managed to get crazy... wasn't
out bus driver such a good sport? Cheeseburger in Paradise allowed us to
take a break mid-week and relax. Policeman's Brawl was definitely one of
the best ever. Ruskies rounded themselves up some dates and danced the
night away with a bunch of excited freshwomen, to the tunes of Peace and
Love. In addition to all this fun, our social chairs kept us busy with a host of
other late nights and co-sponsored parties.

Although our social calendars were full, we still found plenty of time
to volunteer. Once again, we got together with the Kappa Sigs for the 1 1th
annual Homeruns for Habitat. After twelve hourse and 100 innings of soft-
ball, we were tired, but proud of our efforts. We also co-sponsored Run
Under the Stars with the rest of Patterson Court. From volunteering at Ada
Jenkins to helping put together Christmas boxes for underprivledged childres,
every Ruskie played an important role.

Before the end of first semester, everyone enjoyed the last chance to
party with friends at Christmas Cocktails. Second semester was kicked off
with our favorite night, Self-Selection! The celebrating began much earlier,
however, when we pulled the newest members of our herd out of bed to
come down for breakfast at the house. While it was a long day after that 6am
start, the new Ruskies showed that they were ready to party with the rest of
the herd, rallying for the REAL celebration that night. Everyone had a fabu-
lous time, even if they did get a bit wet!

Once we recouperated from Sel-Selection, our social calendars heated
back up with Heaven and Hell, where we discovered that we angelic Ruskies
have a little bit of devil in us! Big Sis/Lil Sis was a blast as always, and as
our Rusk families grew, we got to show off unique undergarments provided
by our little sisters. Formal is always a good time, when we leave good old
Patterson Court and invade the real world, showing them what it really means
to party. Longneck Redneck gave us a good chance to enjoy the spring
weather cowboy-style as we presented our Favorite cowboy, Chris Tuttle,
with the traditional belt buckle. Finally. Senior Roast was a wonderful way
for us, through laughter and a few tears, to send the seniors on their way, and
close out our 22nd year.

Phi Gamma Delta

If there was off-campus fun to be had this year, it was to be found at the Phi Gam house tucked away on Beaty
Street. True to past years, the Phi Gam Tram successfully shuttled herds of raving lunatics, or rather "partygoers," to
and from the parties held at the house whether it was the Rave or the infamous Fiji Islander.

This year, Fiji stood out as the intellectual powerhouse of Patterson Court, being awarded for best scholarship at
the Fall Convocation. This aspect is, of course, simply a front for the maniacal partying souls contained deep within,
seen only on rare occasions known as weekends.

Service continued to be a valued component of Fiji, as we worked closely with the Ada Jenkins Center
throughout the year. These service projects provided an excellent opportunity to assist the Davidson community and a
great excuse to wake up extremely early on Saturday mornings.

Athletics

Strong Defense Leads to an 8-2 record

Football

Seven games has often been considered an unreachable goal in light of the caliber of the opposition Davidson faces.
Especially after last year's disappointing 3-8 record, winning anything close to eight games seemed an awfully unrealistic goal.
But nonetheless, the Cats turned their ears away from the critics and fought toward the most celebrated season in Davidson
football history. With this record-breaking 8-2 season. Head Coach Tim Landis has begun to etch his name in the stone of
Davidson's winningest coaches.

Two new coaches, Offensive Coordinator Al Logan and Secondary and Strength Coach Morris Starr, brought in new
systems— an extremely difficult offensive system and an extremely complex defensive system. The season was nothing less
than exhilarating: records were broken and individual accomplishments abounded. Tommy Dugan quarterbacked the team in
the new offense and in the process became the all-time leader in total yardage with 6,078 yards. Sophomore Eric Ferguson,
'Fergi', remained the steadfast horse at fullback and led the team in rushing for the second consecutive year. Jerry Saunders,
Matt Berry and Jamel Wynn had valuable contributions to the offensive line.

The defense made the season a truly "GR8 One." Head defensive coach Trip Merrit anchored the crewwith his prowess,
and Senior safety Clif Henry finished the season with seven interceptions. He ended first in the nation and was nominated to
participate in the NCAA Division I-AA Independents All-Star football game. Wes Thorton was also an invaluable asset to the
defensive line. The Cats finished second nationally among Division I-AA teams in scoring defense with 10.4 points per game;
Davidson ranked fourth in total defense with 23 1 .9 yards per game. Senior Captains Chris Fredericks and Tom Ting helped the
Ends Andre Carelock and Wes "Stuuuuu" Jones stop the outside run. Along with Clif Henry, sophomore nose guard Bo
Henderson was selected to play in the NCAA All-Star game. The 1998 Davidson Wildcats look to break this year's record, for
they feel they have pushed themselves to being part of a winning system. -Enrique Gronjoles

#5 Junior Hart Roper

The 1998 men's soccer season began in difficult fashion. The Wheats seemed to have some trouble
working as a team in the early season, and opened up with a 1 - 1 3 record. At this point, they traveled to
conference rival Furman, who happened to be ranked twelvth in the nation. The Paladins rattled off more
than double the amount of shots that the Wildcats could manage. But with 14 minutes remaining in the
game, junior striker Andrew Holbrook scored the only goal of the contest. The 1-0 victory over Furman
began a small comeback for Davidson. They finished 5-16 overall and had a respectable 4-4 Southern
Conference record. Unfortunately, they were knocked out of the conference tournament in the first round
when they lost to the College of Charleston by a score of 5-2.

Throughout the season, Davidson faced incredible competition. In addition to Furman, the Wilcats
played three other nationally ranked opponents: UCLA, the preseason number one. South Carolina, and
Wake Forest. Although Davidson did not emerge victorious in these contests, the experience gained by
the players will undoubtedly help them next year.

The Wildcats are returning seven starters. This year's points leader, David Buehler, and co-assists
leader, Dane Erickson, will be in the midfield. The defense will be anchored by team MVP Lawrence
Cann and Patrick Miller, who was a first team all Southern Conference selection last year. The only
question for the Wildcats is in the keeper position. Both goalies from this year's squad, Marshall Tyler
and Brad Stroble are seniors. Nevertheless, there are high expectations for next year.

Women's Soccer

It was a streaky season for the women's soccer team.
They opened the season win-less in the first five games
before rattling off five wins in a row. Unfortunately, that
streak was followed by another five game skid.
Throughout the up and down season, the girls had to
overcome several injuries to key players. They were able
to finish third in the Southern Conference with a 5-3
record, and completed the season 7-13 overall.

Injuries hampered the Wildcats all season long. Senior
co-captain Rhina Roberts played only seven games due to
an injured leg. Down the stretch, team MVP Kelly
Rennick and junior Kate McKnight both suffered ankle
injuries. In addition, freshmen standouts Carolyn Stumpf
and Natalie Cox had to deal with nagging injuries.

Although the team was unable to advance past the first
round of the Southern Conference tournament, several
individuals had outstanding seasons. Forward Ginny Dye
notched seven goals to push her career total to 22. Dye
received second team all conference recognition for her
efforts. MVP Rennick made a switch from mid-field to
defense this year where she was an outstanding presence.
Her play earned her a spot on the first team all conference.
Next year the Wildcats will
have a strong nucleus of
experienced players returning.

Field Hockey

The field hockey team emerged victorious in four of its final six games to salvage their season. They ended with a 6-13
overall record, but more importantly, they played extremely well in the Deep South tournament.

In the first of the three games, Davidson faced Quinnipiac. With the game tied at one goal apiece, junior Kate Schoening
scored the winning goal less than two minutes before the game ended. The second game was less fortunate for the Wildcats.
They fell 2-0 to Appalachian State, a team they had beat earlier that week. But the team bounced back in their third match
against Catawba. In this high scoring affair, sophomore Jennie Gold provided the winning goal in overtime.

For their achievements in the tournament, four individuals
were named to the all tournament team: senior co-captain
Lowell Rayburn, team MVP Kim Ceci, junior Shana Byers
and junior Nancy Livingston.

SWIMMING AND DIVING

The men's swimming team ended the regular season
with one of their best dual records ever at 6-7. They were able
to carry their success into the post-season as well. They finished
second at Southern States Championships to newcomer Western
Illinois. Five members were selected for the All Southern States
team: juniors Scott Harper and Terry Dolch, sophomores Kurt
Hirsekorn and Sam Kuykendall, and freshman Graham Gravely.
At ECAC, the men placed eighth in the field.

The women had an equally successful season and took
the Southern States title for the third consecutive year. Four
swimmers were named to the All Southern States team: junior
Mary Shell Broshe, freshmen Starr Daniell, Heidi Hester and
Beth Summerlin. The women notched ninth place at the ECAC.

WOMEN'S BASKETBALL

The women's basketball team flourished under the
leadership and experience of its three seniors— Jamie
Brown, Kerry Brown and Jessica Montrella. They were
the top three rebounders on the team, and were three of
the top four scorers. As a result, they propelled the team
to eighteen wins, tying the record they had established
last year. More importantly though, they helped lead the
women's basketball team to the finals of the Southern
Conference Tournament for the first time in Davidson's
history.

The overall record of 18-10 and the conference mark
of 13-8 gave the Wildcats the fourth sees going into the
tournament. Competition was tight all year long; the top
four teams were separated by only three games. The
women began the tournament with a game against fifth
seeded Furman, who they easily disposed of 62-56. The
next round brought on the toughest challenge for the
Wildcats, the first seeded UNC Greensboro. The game
was very physical. Montrella tore her ACL and MCL,
and Jamie Brown and Katy Kamp both fouled out in the
second half. Down by four with fourteen seconds left
and only two starters on the floor, the situation looked
grim. Heroically, Kerry Brown stepped up and hit a three
off the glass. UNC Greensboro lost control of the ball on
ensuing play, and Kerry Brown was there to gather the
ball. She dished it to an open Jessica Heath in the post
who proceeded to make the game-winning jumper as the
buzzer sounded.

Although they lost the championship game to
Appalachian State, the Wildcats still managed to set a
precedent of excellence for the following teams.

Women's Tennis

Experience leads the
way in tough season

The 1999 women's
tennis team had high expecta-
tions for the year. Due to a
change in post-season format,
the winner of the Southern
Conference tournament auto-
matically receives a bid to the
NCAA tournament. Unfortu-
nately for the Wildcats, they
lost a hard-fought match in the
first round.

Their 8-8 overall
record and 5-4 Southern Con-
ference mark earned them the
fifth seed in the tournament,
they faced fourth- seeded Col-
lege of Charleston in the open-
ing round. After the singles
matches, the wWildcats found
themselves in a bad spot, down
four matches to two. But the
doubles teams battled back.
Freshman Forbes Thompson
combined with senior Kirstyn
Leuner to win the #3 doubles
slot. In addition, seniors Am-
ber Bradford and co-captain
Dana Casner were victorious in
the #1 doubles position. Sadly,
the #2 doubles team was un-
able to prevail in a very com-
petitive match.
