1979  —  the  end  of  a  decade.  In  the 
years  that  were  the  seventies,  what 
did  we  really  remember?  In  1970,  most 
of  us  were  just  beginning  junior  high 
school.  Life  was  relatively 
uncomplicated.  So  we  grew  up  with  the 
seventies  —  and  changed  with  them.  The 
fads  we  took  part  in,  the  crises  we 
lived  through,  the  events  of  the 
decade  have  all  shaped  our  lives  in 
subtle  ways. 

1970  began  as  an  extension  of  the 
60's.  Richard  M.  Nixon  was  president, 
the  war  in  Vietnam  continued  and 
students  demonstrated  on  college 
campuses.  In  May,  President  Nixon 
made  the  decision  to  invade  Cambodia. 
Protests  across  the  country 
culminated  in  the  shooting  and 
killing  of  four  students  on  the  Kent 


State  campus  on  May  18. 

In  1971,  President  Nixon  extended 
his  fight  against  inflation  with  the 
90  day  freeze  on  wages  and  prices. 
During  the  summer.  Congress  passed 
the  Twenty-sixth  Amendment,  which 
lowered  the  voting  age  to  eighteen. 

In  February  of  1972,  President 
Nixon  traveled  to  Communist  China 
for  a  seven  day  visit,  thus  renewing 
relationships  that  had  been  broken 
for  twenty-two  years.  In  the  spring, 
the  Equal  Rights  Amendment  was  passed 
by  Congress  and  presented  to  the 
states  for  ratification.  Late  in  the 
summer,  the  Democrats  nominated 
George  McGovern  and  Nixon  was  chosen 
by  the  Republicans  to  represent  them 
in  the  presidential  election. 
In  November,  Richard  Nixon  won  his 


second  term  in  office  in  a  landslide 
victory. 

The  Watergate  Trial  —  investigatii 
the  break-in  at  the  headquarters  of 
the  Democratic  National  Committee, 
began  in  January  of  1973.  Also,  on 
January  23,  the  Paris  Peace  Talks 
resulted  in  peace  in  Vietnam.  As  the 
year  progressed,  more  and  more 
evidence  of  the  Nixon 
Administration's  involvement  in 
Watergate  came  to  light.  In  July,  it 
was  discovered  that  Nixon  had  taped 
many  of  his  conversations  in  the 
White  House.  Scandal  spread  to  the 
Vice  Presidency  when  Spiro  Agnew, 
implicated  in  bribery  and  corruption 
charges  in  Maryland,  resigned.  Nixon 
nominated  Gerald  R.  Ford  to  be  the 
new  Vice  President.

1974  —  the  Watergate  scandal 
continued.  Patty  Hearst  was  kidnapped 
in  February,  and  in  April  she 
took  part  in  a  bank  robbery  with  her 
captors,  the  Symbianese  Liberation 
Army,  Inflation  was  still  increasing, 
and  there  was  talk  of  impeaching  the 
President.  Finally,  in  mid-August, 
Richard  Nixon  resigned  the 
presidency,  and  Gerald  R.  Ford  became 
the  first  U.S.  President  who  had  not 
been  elected  as  either  president  or 
vice  president. 

Economic  crises  —  1975:  inflation 
and  unemployment  were  high  and  still 
rising,  and  the  country  had  entered 
a  recession.  The  Arab  nations  showed 
their  economic  power  as  they  forced 
oil  prices  up  and  up.  Communists 
took  over  both  Cambodia  and  Vietnam. 


Women's  rights  took  a  step  forward  as 
liberalized  abortion  laws  were 
passed. 

In  1976,  the  United  States 
celebrated  its  200th  birthday.  The 
yearlong  celebration  culminated  on 
July  4.  In  the  presidential  election, 
Georgian  Jimmy  Carter  (Dem.)  defeated 
Gerald  Ford,  the  Republican 
candidate.  This  was  the  first  year 
that  women  were  admitted  into  the 
U.S.  Military  Academies  as  students. 

In  1977,  James  E.  Carter  was 
inaugurated  as  President  of  the 
United  States.  The  winter,  one  of 
the  most  severe  the  country  had 
experienced  in  many  years,  was 
complicated  by  a  fuel  shortage.  Bert 
Lance,  Carter's  budget  director, 
resigned  when  a  scandal  was  raised 


about  his  questionable  banking 
practices. 

Inflation,  the  plague  of  the  70's, 
continued  in  1978,  accompanied  by 
the  devaluation  of  the  dollar  on  the 
world  market.  Peace  in  the  Middle 
East  seemed  very  near  after  Prime 
Minister  Menahem  Begin  of  Israel  and 
President  Anwar  Sadat  of  Egypt  met 
at  Camp  David  with  President  Carter. 
In  July,  Louise  Brown,  the  first 
"test  tube  baby,"  was  born  in 
England. 

1979,  the  seventies  were  coming  to 
an  end.  In  many  ways,  the  public  was 
much  calmer  and  subdued.  But  once 
again  the  people  were  revolting  — 
this  time  it  was  the  middle  classes 
rising  against  government  spending 
and  taxes.  What  a  difference.

In  the  future,  the  1970's 
will  be  remembered  as  the  years  when 
Atlanta  became  a  "Big  city." 
During  these  years  the  "Big  Peach" 
grew  up  and  out.  Construction 
increased  both  downtown  and  on  the 
outskirts,  with  each  new  building 
either  taller  or  more  modern 
than  the  last.  Highways,  for  example 
1-285,  were  outgrown  almost  as  soon 
as  they  were  completed.  Colony  Square 
and  the  Omni  International  were 
examples  of  a  trend  that  went  one 
step  further  than  the  shopping 
center.  These  complexes  included 
hotels,  restaurants,  specialty 
stores,  and  business  offices.  The 
newest  and  most  spectacular  of 
Atlanta's  hotels  was  the 
Peachtree  Plaza. 

Inevitably,  all  of  this 
construction  resulted  in  some 
destruction.  The  Fox  Theatre  was 
almost  sold  to  Southern  Bell, 
so  Bell  could  tear  it  down  and  erect 
a  new  building  there.  But  the  public 
outcry  was  so  great  that  a 
"Save  the  Fox"  campaign  was  launched, 
resulting  in  a  last  minute  rescue. 
Southern  Bell  proceeded  to  construct 
its  office  building  in  a  nearby 
parking  lot. 

The  coming  of  MARTA  (Metropolitan 
Atlanta  Rapid  Transit  Authority) 
caused  upheaval  and  inconveniences 
all  along  the  construction  route. 
Here  in  Decatur, 

MARTA  brought  many  problems. 
Small  businesses  near  the  square 
lost  customers  because  of  a 
lack  of  parking,  and  many  suffered 
from  cracked  walls  and  foundations. 
MARTA  also  disrupted  residential 
areas.  An  example  of  this  was 
Sycamore  Street,  an  older  area 
revitalized  by  younger  couples  and 
their  families.  The  entry  of  MARTA 
resulted  in  the  loss 
of  this  neighborhood  atmosphere. 
Although  changes  in  Atlanta 
had  both  positive  and  negative 
aspects,  there  was  no  doubt 
that  the  city  grew  by  leaps  and 
bounds,  becoming  more  than  ever 
"the  Capital  of  the  South."

Construction  sites  have  been 
familiar  scenes  here  at  Scott  in  the 
last  years  and  have  played  an 
important  role  in  the  modernizing  of 
campus  facilities.  A  retrospective 
glance  will  provide  the  Scottie  with 
insight  into  how  the  college  has 
changed  over  the  past  decade. 

Between  1975  and  1976,  McCain 
Library  was  renovated  and  remodeled 
for  greater  shelf  space  and  for 
convenience  of  the  students.  The 
three  main  floors  of  the  building  were 
totally  redone.  In  1977,  the  flagpole 
in  the  Quad  was  erected  to  honor  Dr. 
Henry  Robinson,  past  chairman  of 
the  Mathematics  Department.  The 
school  year  of  1977-78  was  the  last 
year  that  cottages  were  used  as 
housing  for  boarding  students.  The 
poor  physical  condition  of  the  houses 
made  it  more  feasible  for  the  college 
to  tear  them  down  than  to  repair 
them.  During  the  summer  after  the 
1977  session,  the  tennis  courts 
received  the  resurfacing  they  so  badly 
needed. 

But  the  biggest  undertaking  since 
the  library  changes  has  been  the 
renovation  of  Buttrick.  At  the  end  of 
the  1977-78  session,  the  faculty  had 
to  move  out  of  the  building,  on  the 
understanding  that  they  would  return 
in  September.  However  during  the 
course  of  the  summer,  difficulties 
arose.  It  was  discovered  that  walls 
needed  to  be  moved  and  ceilings 
required  special  holes.  When 
preparing  a  shaft  for  the  new 
elevator,  the  workers  drilled  into 
granite.  Therefore,  only 
administrative  offices  remained  in 
Buttrick,  professors  had  offices  in  the 
infirmary,  History  305  met  in  the 
basement  of  Walters,  and  the 
bookstore  and  the  Post  office  were 
relocated  permanently  to  the  Lower 
Dining  Hall. 

When  the  renovations  have  been 
completed,  all  of  Buttrick  will  be  air 
conditioned,  faculty  offices  and 
classrooms  redesigned,  and  seminar 
and  viewing  rooms  constructed.  Thus, 
the  attempt  to  improve  the 
atmosphere  for  learning  on  campus 
will  have  been  carried  a  step  further.

To  see  how  far  we  have  come,  first 
we  must  look  back  to  see  where  we 
once  stood.  The  following,  taken  from 
the  ASC  Handbook  of  1969,  shows 
us  just  how  much  we  have  changed  in 
ten  short  years:  Agnes  Scott  College 
does  not  approve  the  use  of  alcoholic 
beverages  by  students  enrolled  in  the 
college;  Agnes  Scott  students  are  not 
to  visit  men's  living  quarters  (hotels, 
motels,  apartments,  etc.)  individually 
or  in  groups  except  under 
circumstances  which,  in  the 
judgement  of  the  Dean  of  Students, 
assure  adequate  protection  to  the 
students  and  to  the  good  name  of  the 
college;  Areas  in  which  smoking  is 
not  permitted:  Buttrick,  Dana, 
Campbell,  Library,  Observatory, 
Gymnasium,  Dining  Hall,  Infirmary, 
Dormitories,  and  Faculty  Offices; 
There  must  be  three  or  more  students 
to  walk  together  into  Decatur  after 
the  afternoon  time  limit  and  two  or 
more  to  go  to  P  by  C  or  Watson's. 
Afternoon  time  limit,  set  by  Judicial 
Council,  specified  the  hour  at  which 
students  must  be  back  on  campus 
unless  accompanied  by  a  date  or 
chaperone.  All  students  are  under  the 
curfew  of  11:45  p.m.  on  weekdays 
and  1:00  a.m.  on  weekend  nights  — 
Fall  Quarter  Freshmen  must  be 
accompanied  by  chaperones;  Sunday 
dress  is  appropriate  for  the  noon  meal 
in  the  Dining  Hall  on  Sunday;  Sport's 
attire  is  defined  as  slacks  and 
bermuda  shorts  and  may  not  be  worn 
in  the  following  places:  First  Buttrick, 
Art  galleries  in  Dana,  and  First 
Main,  First  floor  of  the  Library, 
Faculty  and  Administration  offices, 
classes,  and  science  and  art  labs;

an  average  of  1.00,  with  permission 
from  parents  may  have  cars  on  campus; 
Number  of  social  engagements  allowed:

registered  in  the  campus  date  book  in 
the  Dean  of  Student's  Office;  Permission 
from  parents  is  needed  from  all  students 
for  the  following  social  privileges: 
riding  a  motorcycle  or  other  two- 
wheeled  motorized  vehicle,  riding  in  cars 
in  Atlanta  or  vicinity,  going  home  or 
making  out-of-town  trips  by  bus,  train, 
plane,  or  car,  making  trips  related  to 
academic  work  and  sponsored  by  a 
department  of  the  college,  making  trips 
to  attend  church-sponsored  weekend 
conferences,  participating  in  water  sports 
at  off-campus  recreational  areas  in  and 
near  Atlanta,  driving  a  car,  horseback 
riding,  attending  fraternity  houseparties 
at  Georgia  Tech  or  Emory  University; 
Invitations  are  necessary  for  overnight 
absences  and  must  be  filed  in  the  Dean 
of  Student's  Office;  All  phone  calls  are 
limited  to  five  minutes,  after  which  the 
operator  has  the  right  to  ask  that  the 
call  be  discontinued  (all  phones  at  the 
time  were  connected  to  the  Agnes  Scott 
switchboard);  In  order  to  cut  a  class,  an 
academic  average  of  a  C  was  necessary. 
Whew!  —  This  was  Agnes  Scott  in  1969 
—  Could  you  have  survived?

A  piece  of  your  Past... 


Going  to  class  . . .  blind  dates  .  . . 
writing  papers  .  .  .  partying  on  weekends 
. . .  looking  for  mail  . . .  practical  jokes 
. . .  going  to  meetings  .  .  .  complaining 
about  too  much  work  . . .  popcorn  parties 
. . .  washing  clothes  .  . . 

This  could  be  Agnes  Scott  at  any  time 
from  the  1940's  up  to  the  present.  The 
basic  style  of  life  here  has  not  changed 
much.  A  group  of  over  500  girls  in  their 
late  teens  to  early  twenties  usually  tend  to 
have  the  same  general  habits  and  interests. 

So  how  will  the  year  1978-79  be 
distinguished  from  others?  The  attitude  of 
college  students  in  the  late  70's  was  one  of 
concern  for  the  future.  At  Scott,  more  and 
more  students  were  intending  to  begin  a 
career  or  attend  graduate  school  after 
graduation.  A  large  number  of  seniors  took 
advantage  of  resume'  and  interview 
workshops  sponsored  by  the  Career 
Planning  Office. 

Many  students  were  interested  in 
becoming  and  remaining  physically  fit.  The 
newest  fad  was  running  or  jogging.  At  all 
hours  of  the  day  and  night,  Scotties  could 
be  seen  circling  the  basketball  court,  the 
hockey  field,  or  the  campus. 

Of  course,  most  students  were  concerned 
with  more  than  their  health  and  careers. 
After  all,  who  could  or  would  forget  the 
weekend?  TGIF  parties  expanded  onto  the 
grass  in  front  of  the  Hub,  indicating  the 
growing  popularity  of  beer  parties  on 
campus.  Those  who  could  not  wait  for 
Friday  began  celebrating  as  early  as 
Wednesday  or  Thursday  night  with  trips  to 
PJ's  or  Moe's  and  Joe's.  Saturday  night 
was  the  time  for  disco  parties  on  campus, 
the  result  of  a  dance  craze  that  topped 
even  beach  music.

Changes 


Just  a  few  years  ago,  Dorm  Councils 

had  become  lax  and  enforced  few  rules, 

there  were  no  men  in  the  dorms,  the 

Board  of  Student  Activities  did  little 

other  than  approve  beer  parties,  and  not 

many  people  were  aware  of  the  Student 

Government  Committees  on  campus. 

However,  the  past  two  years  have  shown 

a  change  in  our  student  government. 

The  force  compelling  this  renewed 

activity  came  mainly  from  the  leaders  of 

the  various  boards  and  committees,  and 

was  supported  by  student  interest  in 

effective  government. 

Many  changes  had  been  coming  about 

gradually.  Representative  Council  had 

worked  on  various  RC's  since  1976-77 

concerning  the  alcoholic  beverage  policy. 

Last  spring  Rep  came  up  with  a  bill 

providing  for  a  special  room  in  each 

dorm  where  students  could  store  and 

drink  alcoholic  beverages.  This  fall,  Rep 

gave  preliminary  approval  to  an  RC  that 

extended  parietals  to  Saturday 

afternoons.  Last  year  the  Library 

Committee  persuaded  the  Library  to 

extend  its  hours  from  10:30  to  11:45  pm 

each  quarter  during  the 

last  week  of  classes. 

After  spring  elections  in  1977, 

Interdorm  and  Dorm  Councils  worked 

together  to  revise  penalties  and  to 

encourage  enforcement  of  rules. 

Workshops  were  held  to  train  Dorm 

Council  members  to  work  effectively 

with  other  students  on  their  halls.  At 

the  same  time,  the  Board  of  Student 

Activities  (BSA)  was  being  re-evaluated. 

The  size  was  cut  down  to  a  core  group 

which  evaluated  all  the  boards  on 

campus.  Their  conclusions  helped  to 

define  and  revitaHze  other  groups 

governing  the  student  body.

n  the  Future. 


"Do  you  think  Scott  will  ever 
go  coed?"  Although  it  seemingly 
would  not  effect  us,  a  majority 
of  the  students  expressed  an 
interest  and  concern  for  the 
future  of  the  college.  Most 
concluded  it  was  very  unlikely 
that  men  would  attend  Agnes 
Scott  as  full  time  students. 
Then,  what  changes  would  the 
coming  years  bring  to  Agnes 
Scott  College?  Physical  changes 
will  continue  to  be  made.  After 
the  completion  of  Buttrick,  the 
next  project  will  probably  be  the 
construction  of  a  new  gym  and 
track  on  the  land  behind  the 
Physical  Plant.  The  old  gym  will 
become  a  student  center. 

Out  of  necessity,  the 
curriculum  will  also  be  adjusted 
and  updated  as  some  courses 
become  obsolete  and  a  need  for 
others  arises.  However,  the 
course  of  study  will  continue  to 
be  firmly  based  in  the  liberal 
arts.  In  other  words.  Interior 
Decorating  101  will  not  be 
among  the  new  classes  offered. 

As  customs  and  morals 
change,  the  rules  governing 
student  life  at  Scott  will  have  to 
move  with  the  times.  Each 
student  will  most  likely  be  given 
the  freedom  to  determine  her 
own  social  rules  and  regulations. 
The  future  may  include  open 
dorms  and  other  developments 
which  would  shock  graduates  of 
an  earlier,  stricter  time. 

As  the  cost  of  a  college 
education  continues  to  rise, 
many  changes  will  be  instigated 
by  students  demanding  that  the 
college  meet  their  needs.  Even 
so,  the  adaptations  will  not  be 
too  drastic.  One  can  realistically 
expect  to  return  for  her  thirtieth 
year  reunion  and  be  able  to 
point  to  Main  and  say,  "That's 
where  I  lived  my  senior  year

Underwater  Basketweaving  101,  ... 
Basketweaving?  At  Agnes  Scott? 
Well,  the  curriculum  had  been 
updated  in  the  past  year  or  so,  but 
this  course  obviously  did  not  fit  into 
the  liberal  arts  structure.  The  courses 
that  had  been  added  either  expanded 
into  new  areas  of  old  subject  matter, 
covered  entirely  new  topics,  or 
presented  old  materials  on  a  different 
level  than  had  been  offered  before. 
The  adjustments  were  made  in  an 
attempt  to  meet  the  changing  needs 
of  the  students. 

A  major  addition  to  the  curriculum 
was  the  Preparatory  Program  for 
Business.  The  program  was  a 
grouping  of  courses  in  several 
disciplines,  which  combined  would 
provide  a  student  with  skills  and 
knowledge  helpful  in  seeking  jobs  in 
businesses.  The  program  did  not 
constitute  a  major.  Only  two  new 
courses  were  involved  —  Marketing 
and  Advanced  Composition. 

In  the  spring  of  1978,  the 
Economics  and  Sociology  Department 
was  divided  into  two  separate 
organizations.  Also,  the  Economics 
Department  purchased  a  small 
computer  at  the  beginning  of  the  year 
to  use  in  simulations. 

Although  many  of  its  changes  had 
been  widely  noticed.  Economics  was 
not  the  only  area  to  offer  new 
courses.  Freshmen  and  Sophomore 
Seminars,  intended  to  acquaint 
underclassmen  with  upper  level 
seminar  classes,  were  offered  this 
year  in  Art,  Bible  and  Religion, 
Chemistry,  and  Music.  Many  courses 
in  the  Music  and  the  Sociology 
departments  were  redesigned  and 
renamed.  The  Classics  Department 
established  a  class  in  classical 
archeology,  and  non-biology  majors 
could  take  a  basic  course  in  genetics 
and  evolution.  All  of  these  new 
offerings  made  it  possible  for  the 
student  to  broaden  her  horizons  even 
further,  often  in  areas  unrelated  to 
her  major.

Atlanta  area,  Mrs.  Lemonds  has  given 
many  solo  recitals  and  has  performed 
with  Emory  University,  the  Atlanta 
Symphony,  the  Atlanta  Choral  Guild, 
and  the  Augusta  Symphony.  She  con- 
tinues to  teach  part-time  at  Emory  Uni- 
versity. 

In  addition  to  her  musical  activities,- 
Mrs.  Lemonds  enjoys  "playing  house" 
and  baby-sitting  her  grandchildren,  but 
she  adds,  "It  takes  an  awful  lot  of  time 
to  be  a  musician!" 

Mrs.  Lemonds  not  only  finds  the  in- 
tellectual atmosphere  at  Agnes  Scott 
challenging  but  also  enjoys  lighter  ac- 
tivities such  as  Black  Cat,  Junior  Jaunt, 
and  Blackfriars'  productions.  She  takes 
great  delight  in  being  a  part  of  the  Ag- 
nes Scott  community  and  thanks  stu- 
dents for  including  her,  saying,  "You 
make  me  feel  like  one  of  you!"

An  English  professor  can  consider 
herself  fully  initiated  to  life  at  Scott 
when  the  elevators  in  the  library  stop 
functioning  on  the  very  two  weekends 
that  she  grades  papers  and  checks  foot- 
note references.  Such  an  initiation  oc- 
curred to  Dr.  Anne  Warner  who  recent- 
ly joined  the  English  Department  at 
Agnes  Scott  College.  She  teaches  Eng- 
lish 101  and  Advanced  Composition. 
Dr.  Warner  received  her  B.A.  and 
M.A.  degrees  at  Hollins  College  then 
went  on  to  complete  her  Ph.D.  in  Eng- 
lish at  Emory  in  1977.  Before  getting 
her  degree,  she  held  various  jobs  includ- 
ing editorial  assistant  for  a  business 
magazine  and  copy  editor  for  a  four- 
man  advertising  firm.  Her  husband  is  a 
portfolio  manager  at  the  Trust  Com- 
pany Bank,  and  they  have  two  daugh- 
ters. 

Dr.  Warner  finds  the  students  here 
competent  and  curious.  She  likes  the 
sense  of  community  that  a  small  college 
affords  and  is  most  impressed  with  the 
strong  academic  program  Agnes  Scott 
maintains  despite  demographic  and 
economic  pressures.

Dr.  Gordon  McNeer,  an  easy-going 
and  lively  bachelor,  was  influenced  to 
study  Spanish  by  his  Mexican  grand- 
mother. He  graduated  from  Princeton 
in  1965  and  taught  at  the  University  of 
Florida  from  1970  to  1972,  where  he 
received  the  Best  Teacher  Award.  He 
returned  to  Princeton  in  1976  to  earn 
his  Ph.D.  He  has  lived  and  travelled 
extensively  in  Spain,  acting  as  a  transla- 
tor and  working  in  a  Spanish  bank. 

Dr.  McNeer's  arrival  at  Agnes  Scott 
evolved  rather  unexpectedly.  He  had 
come  to  Atlanta  originally  to  fill  a  posi- 
tion at  Georgia  Tech,  but  when  that  job 
failed  to  materialize,  he  spent  a  year 
frantically  applying  to  colleges  in  the 
area  while  his  bank  account  dwindled. 
Fortunately,  he  secured  a  job  here  in 
the  Spanish  Department  and  is  glad  to 
be  at  Scott.

Gus  Cochran,  Assistant  Professor  of 
Political  Science,  has  not  seen  too  many 
changes  in  his  six  years  at  Agnes  Scott, 
with  the  exception  of  more  relaxed  so- 
cial regulations.  He  notes  that  the  liber- 
al arts  are  thriving,  but  feels  that  we  are 
perhaps  too  defensive  toward  career 
orientation.  Mr.  Cochran  thinks  that 
the  College  has  a  more  open  attitude 
toward  internships;  he  finds  this  very 
encouraging,  for  internships  are  like 
labs  for  political  science  students.  In 
comparing  today's  Agnes  Scott  stu- 
dents to  those  in  years  past,  Mr.  Coch- 
ran points  out  that  students  today  are 
less  clustered  and  have  a  wider  range  of 
abilities.  They  need,  however,  to  have 
more  decision-making  responsibility.  In 
addition,  faculty  members  should  en- 
courage students  to  get  involved  in  ac- 
tivities on  and  off  campus. 

Mr.  Cochran  has  a  new  role  this  year; 
he  is  a  very  proud  father!  Since  daugh- 
ter Molly  keeps  odd  hours,  sleep  has 
become  a  rare  and  precious  commodity 
for  him.  In  addition  to  his  busy  family 
life,  he  enjoys  tennis  and  jogging.

The  new  face  in  the  Bradley  Observa- 
tory is  that  of  Robert  Hyde,  Assistant 
Professor  in  the  Department  of  Physics 
and  Astronomy.  Educated  first  at  Col- 
gate, Mr.  Hyde  studied  Physics  at  the 
University  of  New  Hampshire  and  As- 
tronomy at  Penn  State.  His  scientific 
interests  and  activities  have  been  var- 
ied; he  has  been  involved  with  the  space 
program  at  New  Hampshire,  thermo- 
nuclear research  at  Boulder,  Colorado; 
solar  flare  projects  at  Penn  State,  radio 
astronomy,  plasma  physics,  and  theo- 
retical math. 

Mr.  Hyde  is  impressed  with  the  intel- 
lectual atmosphere  at  Agnes  Scott  as 
well  as  with  our  strong  honor  system. 
He  notes  a  commitment  to  the  institu- 
tion on  the  part  of  both  faculty  and 
students.  In  addition,  he  feels  that  there 
is  a  strong  sense  of  community  at  Agnes 
Scott,  promoted  by  the  closeness 
among  faculty  members  and  their  inter- 
est in  and  dedication  to  the  students 
and  the  college  as  a  whole,  rather  than 
just  to  their  major  field.  Mr.  Hyde  finds 
the  women  at  Agnes  Scott  intense  stu- 
dents who  are  willing  to  work. 

When  not  in  the  classroom,  Mr. 
Hyde  enjoys  many  of  the  cultural 
events  offered  at  Agnes  Scott  with  his 
wife  and  daughters.  In  his  opinion,  the 
wide  range  of  events  on  campus  provide 
excellent  opportunities  for  a  family  and 
for  the  community  at  large.

"Anytime  you  choose  a  discipline, 
you  learn  a  lot  about  yourself.  Like 
mountain  climbing,  you  discover  your 
abilities  to  persevere  and  your  motiva- 
tions, and  you  understand  your  rela- 
tionship to  other  people." 

As  Donald  Young  has  travelled  from 
one  teaching  experience  to  another,  he's 
been  forming  this  definition  of  educa- 
tion. Beginning  by  teaching  math  and 
physics  in  the  Navy,  he  continued  in 
this  field  as  he  secured  his  M.A.  and 
Ph.D.  from  the  University  of  Virginia. 
He  then  spent  three  years  at  the  Uni- 
versity of  South  Carolina.  Is  it  strange 
to  find  such  a  "university"  man  here  at 
ASC?  No,  not  since  he  has  "always 
dreamed  of  a  liberal  arts  education  and 
the  opportunity  to  work  closely  with  his 
students."  He  relishes  the  intellectually 
significant  questions  that  his  students 
ask  and  considers  ASC  his  "most  re- 
warding educational  experience." 

"If  I  feel  isolated,  I'm  unhappy."  He 
describes  the  campus  as  being  close 
knit.  As  a  bachelor  originally  from  Ar- 
lington, Virginia,  and  now  separated 
from  his  "spread  out"  family,  he  re- 
gards teaching  as  a  large  part  of  his  life. 
In  view  of  the  future,  he  does  not  want 
to  see  ASC  become  too  career  oriented, 
but  does  feel  that  the  faculty  and  ad- 
ministration need  to  be  aware  of  the 
outside  world  in  order  to  be  able  to 
incorporate  the  best  of  that  world  into 
the  structure  of  Agnes  Scott.

Richard  Parry,  Associate  Professor 
of  Piiilosophy,  very  nearly  became  a 
lawyer.  Accepted  into  both  Georgetown 
University's  law  school  and  the  Univer- 
sity of  North  Carolina  at  Chapel  Hill's 
graduate  school,  he  chose  the  latter  and 
received  his  Ph.D.  in  Philosophy.  Mr. 
Parry  has  taught  at  Agnes  Scott  for 
twelve  years  and  believes  that  courses 
in  Philosophy  help  students  learn  to 
think  independently.  As  they  learn,  stu- 
dents should  strive  for  intellectual  pos- 
session of  themselves.  Dedicated  to  the 
liberal  arts,  Mr.  Parry  thinks  that  liber- 
al learning  and  careers  can  go  hand  in 
hand.  He  is  very  much  in  favor  of  the 
idea  of  pre-professional  committees  to 
provide  direction  for  studerlts  interest- 
ed in  certain  careers.  Mr.  Parry  notes 
that  current  students  are  bright,  dili- 
gent, and  idealistic,  but  at  times  too 
passive  and  lacking  in  self  direction. 

Having  grown  up  in  Atlanta,  Mr. 
Parry  enjoys  the  city's  cultural  events, 
such  as  the  symphony  and  the  theater. 
However,  most  of  his  time  ouside  the 
classroom  is  spent  with  his  family;  chil- 
dren Matthew  and  Amy  keep  him 
"three  feet  under  most  of  the  time!"

At  the  close  of  a  decade  two  emo- 
tions exist,  an  awe  for  the  swift  passage 
of  time  and  a  hope  for  the  new  decade. 
For  President  Perry,  this  period  in- 
cludes the  dual  responsibility  of  evalu- 
ating the  past  and  preparing  for  the 
future. 

In  response  to  the  violent  and  confus- 
ing age  of  the  sixties,  the  seventies  were 
generally  apathetic  or,  at  least,  intro- 
verted. However,  President  Perry  feels 
that  Agnes  Scott  escaped  the  extremes 
of  the  age.  Specifically,  as  outlined  by 
the  President  in  his  Annual  Report,  the 
college  has  viewed  academic,  physical, 
economical,  and  social  changes  during 
his  five  complete  years  at  Agnes  Scott. 
The  faculty  has  been  awarded  more 
fringe  benefits,  and  the  administration 
has  been  reorganized.  Born  in  the  sev- 
enties, the  Return  to  College  program 
has  increased  each  year.  Career-mind- 
ed students  can  now  apply  themselves 
to  the  business  preparation  course,  and 
Financial  Aid  provides  over  seventy 
percent  of  the  student  body  with  aid. 
Air  conditioning  blesses  the  fortunate 
dorm,  Winship,  as  well  as  the  audito- 
riums of  Presser,  and  the  renovation  of 
the  library  met  with  enthusiastic  ap- 
proval of  the  students.  Being  modern 
women,  the  students  of  Agnes  Scott 
have  altered  their  life  styles  with  the 
privileges  of  parietals  and  a  more  liber- 
al drinking  policy.  In  short,  the  years 
have  been  a  steady,  progressive  transi- 
tion from  the  sixties  to  the  future  eight- 
ies. 

To  President  Perry,  "It's  almost  a 
cliche'  to  say  that  the  eighties  will  be 
tough."  The  population  of  eighteen 
year  olds  will  be  smaller.  As  the  col- 
lege-age person  chooses  a  school,  she 
tends  to  be  drawn  toward  highly  tech- 
nological institutions  with  career  assur- 
ances. Still,  the  President  remains  opti- 
mistic, but  aware  of  the  difficulties  and 
problems.  At  the  same  time,  Agnes 
Scott  finds  strength  in  its  past  as  a  lib- 
eral arts  college,  a  tradition  that  has 
survived  over  two  hundred  years  and,  in 
the  President's  words,  has  "shown  itself 
to  be  a  tough  and  hardy  breed."

HEY 
CHUCK! 


The  end  of  Freshmen  Orientation  .  . 
almost  the  middle  of  fall  quarter  . .  . 
the  best  weekend  of  the  year  . .  .  No 
matter  how  one  chose  to  look  at  it, 
Black  Cat  was,  as  it  always  seems  to 
be,  a  highlight  of  each  Scottie's 
year.  Though  very  different  from  the 
Black  Cat  days  of  50  years  ago,  Black 


Cat  1978  generated  that  ageless 
feeling  of  excitement  and  unity 
throughout  the  Agnes  Scott  community 

Black  Cat,  sponsored  by  Mortar 
Board,  officially  began  on  Thursday 
night  with  the  traditional  bonfire. 
Unofficially,  however,  the  Black  Cat 
spirit  has  been  growing  for  weeks.

Singing  in  the  dining  hall  —  "We  love 
yfou  Seniors  . .  . ,"  water  balloons, 
lewspapered  doors,  and  shoes  lined  up 
"rom  Presser  to  Buttrick  were  some 
ndication  that  Black  Cat  was  just 
iround  the  corner.  The  Freshmen  class 
af  '82  had  chosen  their  mascot  and 
Jwith  some  help  from  their  sister 


class  of  Keystone  Cops),  were  trying  to 
keep  it  a  secret.  Meanwhile,  the 
sophomore  Yellow  Pages,  aided  by  their 
sister  Jiminy  Crickets,  attempted  to 
discover  the  new  freshmen  mascot. 

The  bonfire  was  a  time  of  reckoning 
for  everyone.  Each  class  tried  to 
outshout  the  other  in  hopes  of  winning 


the  Spirit  Award.  Next  was  the  Song 
Competition  as  each  class  sang  their 
Sister  Class  Song  around  the  "roaring" 
bonfire.  And  finally,  the  Sophomores 
successfully  guessed  the  new  freshmen 
mascot.  "Yes  Chuck,  the  mascot  for  the 
the  Class  of  1982  is  Peppermint 
Patty!"

WHAT'S 

THE  GOOD 

WORD? 


Friday  was  a  combination  of 
academia  and  fun.  Though  white-faced 
felines  silently  crept  from  class  to  class 
giving  the  OK  for  class  dismissal, 
most  Scotties  found  themselves 
remaining  in  class  listening  to 
good-natured  professors.  When  4  p.m. 
came  around,  however,  the  Black  Cat 


festivities  began  again  —  this  time  on 
the  hockey  field.  Each  class,  adorned 
in  costume,  supported  their  teams. 
After  an  indecisive  hockey  match,  the 
other  games  began.  Crickets  and 
Cops  vied  in  the  egg  toss,  just  as 
the  Pages  and  Peppermints 
fought  in  the  tug-of-war.

Seniors  and  Freshmen  alike 
ran  about  with  innertubes  and  everyone 
enjoyed  the  annual  pie-eating 
contest  and  the  new  mystery  event. 
Following  the  games,  dinner  (fried 
chicken,  of  course)  and  brew  were 
served  in  the  amphitheater 
as  students,  professors,  and  friends 


sat  on  the  grass  and  enjoyed 
being  together. 

Friday  night,  the  Black  Cat 
Production  was  put  on  by  the  Junior 
Class.  Before  the  production, 
the  winners  of  the  competitions 
were  announced.  Taking  the 
overall  Black  Kitty  Award 


was  the  Sophomore  Class.  Next, 
doing  a  spoof  of  "Oklahoma,"  the 
Juniors  presented  a  hilarious  parody

"Scott's- Your-Homa."  Following  the

Quad,  complete  with  hot  apple  cider

PEPPERMINT 
PATTY! 


With  the  climax  of  Black  Cat  over, 
many  Scotties  headed  to  the  dorms  for 
quick  shag  and  disco  lessons  before 
the  Black  Cat  Dance  Saturday  night. 
Hall  fashion  shows  and  magazine 
makeovers  abounded  as  everyone  tried 
to  look  their  best  for  their 
dates.  (Alas  for  those  who  had  not 


snatched  up  a  man!). 

The  dance  Saturday  night, 
sponsored  by  Social  Council, 
was  held  in  the  Atlanta  Hilton. 
To  the  sound  of  "Staircase," 
Scotties  danced  in  close 
quarters  to  varied  music  —  beach, 
disco,  and  bluegrass.

With  hors  d'oeuvres  and  flashbulbs 
everywhere,  many  folks  crammed  into 
hotel  rooms  rented  by  20  couples  for 
further  partying.  With  no  curfew 
Saturday  night,  the  Freshmen  felt 
like  freed  convicts! 

Sunday  marked  the  end  of 
Black  Cat,  complete  with  dead 


corsages  and  Pepto  Bismal.  At  dinner 
on  Sunday,  folk  singers  played  as 
Scotties  began  to  look 
ahead  to  the  coming  weeks  of  study 
and  midterms.  To  most  students. 
Black  Cat  was  a  welcome  break  in  the 
quarter.  For  the  Freshmen,  Black 
Cat  marked  not  only  the  end  of 


orientation,  but  also,  the  beginning 
of  being  a  class  together.  After  being 
oriented  and  reoriented,  they  now 
belonged  as  a  part  of  Agnes  Scott. 
To  all  Scotties,  new  and  old, 
Black  Cat  was  a  special  time  of 
togetherness  and  a  happy  memory  for 
the  future.

I'm  sure  that  many  people  over  the  course  of  their 
years  at  Agnes  Scott  have  wondered  why  in  blue 
blazes  a  nice,  innocent,  quiet  Scottie  would  want  to  be 
subjected  to  the  less-than-amorous,  often  ribald,  at- 
tentions of  forty  males  at  a  fraternity  on  a  nearby 
campus. 

To  understand,  one  first  had  to  revise  the  descrip- 
tion of  the  typical  Little  Sister.  Generally,  if  a  girl  was 
a  Little  Sister,  she  was  not  necessarily  quiet  or  inno- 
cent. It  was  virtually  impossible  to  be  around  a  crowd 
of  screaming  males  and  remain  naive.  If  a  girl  was  a 
Little  Sister,  most  likely  she  was  outgoing,  friendly, 
enjoyed  partying  and  could  hold  her  own  in  drinking 
contests  with  the  brothers.  Few,  if  any,  girls  were 
chosen  as  steadying  influence.  Most  had  been  chosen 
by  a  fraternity  because  they  showed  a  true  ability  to 
get  along  with  the  brothers,  a  willingness  to  work  and 
help  the  house,  and  in  addition,  presented  a  good 
impression  to  those  entering  the  fraternity  for  the  first 
time. 

The  girls,  in  return,  received  the  benefit  of  male 
companionship  —  a  valuable  commodity  seeing  as 
males  were  few  and  far  between  at  Agnes  Scott  — 
and  a  social  outlet.  Granted,  some  girls  might  get  into 
the  fraternity  scene  in  order  to  gain  a  name  or  reputa- 
tion for  themselves,  but  few  lasted  at  a  fraternity 
unless  they  could  truly  get  along  and  relate  with  the 
brothers.  In  the  long  run,  then,  those  girls  at  Agnes 
Scott  who  associated  with  fraternities  at  Georgia 
Tech  and  Emory  —  including  Lambda  Chi,  Figi,  Del- 
ta Tau  Delta,  Sigma  Nu,  Sigma  Chi,  Alpha  Epsilon 
Pi,  Sigma  Epsilon,  Alpha  Theta  Omega,  Sigma  Alpha 
Epsilon,  and  Phi  Kappa  Tau  —  strengthened  our  ties 
with  our  neighboring  schools,  as  well  as  gained  a 
source  of  personal  amusement  and  activity. 


Perhaps  it  would  seem  that  by  virtue 
of  Agnes  Scott's  situation  as  a  small, 
private  women's  liberal  arts  college, 
the  school  would  have  only  attracted  a 
certain  type  of  student.  If  so,  she 
would  have  been  born  and  raised  in  the 
South,  she  would  speak  with  a  magnolia 
blossom  accent,  and  she  would  empathize 
strongly  with  Scarlett  O'Hara  in  Gone 
With  The  Wind. 

However,  just  as  Agnes  Scott  did  not 
represent  merely  the  southeastern  United 
States  in  its  student  body  structure, 
it  also  was  not  limited  in  its  world- 
wide student  culture.  By  the  1978-79 
school  year,  Agnes  Scott  had  become 
"home"  to  more  than  twenty  foreign  stu- 
dents, a  large  number  considering  the 
size  of  the  student  body.  This  group 
was  composed  of  a  smattering  of  cultures 
from  all  around  the  world.  As  usual, 
there  were  the  foreign  language  hall 
assistants  in  French  and  German.  The 
Rotary  Clubs  sponsored  four  students  for 
a  year  apiece  from  such  diverse  places 
as  Norway,  Germany,  and  South  Africa. 
South  and  Central  America  also  had  their 
share  of  representatives  as  students 
from  Panama,  Venezuela,  and  Brazil  came 
for  four  years  at  Agnes  Scott. 

And,  of  course,  Asia  was  well  repre- 
sented. With  one  student  from  Ceylon 
and  a  dozen  or  more  Malaysians,  one  was 
surrounded  by  Eastern  culture.  But,  no 
matter  where  these  girls  were  from, 
their  presence  added  a  new  dimension  to 
Agnes  Scott  socially,  culturally,  as 
well  as  educationally.

They  were  here,  there,  everywhere!  In  the  li- 
brary, on  the  athletic  field,  in  the  labs,  in  the 
Hub,  . . .  they  were  the  Return  to  College  Stu- 
dents (RTC's)  —  55  strong  and  growing  in  more 
ways  than  you  could  imagine.  They  came  in  all 
sizes  and  shapes.  Some  were  young,  not  much 
older  than  the  traditional  students,  and  some 
were  only  young  at  heart.  Their  interests  varied 
as  much  as  their  descriptions.  Chrissy  was  an 
English  major.  Angle  did  an  independent  study 
in  psychology.  Jo  and  Lilian  spent  most  of  their 
time  in  Danr,  and  if  you  looked  downstairs  you 
would  find  Gloria,  turning  a  mean  potters  wheex. 
Nina  was  hoping  to  be  accepted  to  medical 
school  next  year.  Patsy  studied  math  and  mar- 
keting, and  some  like  Gail,  wish  they  knew  what 
they  might  be  when  they  grew  up!  It  wasn't  easy. 
Ask  Beth  what  it  was  like  to  hold  down  a  job  and 
carry  16  hours.  Have  Joan  tell  you  what  she  did 
when  four  kids  were  down  with  the  flu  and  it  was 
exam  week.  Ask  Harriet  and  Carol  how  it  felt  to 
go  back  after  30  years  away  from  the  books. 
Scary?  You  bet!  Do  not  let  anyone  tell  you  they 
did  not  operate  in  the  real  world!  They  may  not 
have  had  parents  to  answer  to,  but  they  had 
someone  even  tougher,  themselves.  They  were 
among  the  first  to  ask  questions  in  class,  among 
the  first  to  volunteer  a  helping  hand.  They  cried 
sometimes,  and  laughed  more  often,  especially 
at  themselves.  They  were  caring,  sharing,  and 
perhaps  most  of  all,  proud  and  happy  to  be  part 
of  Agnes  Scott.

Key  aspects  of  the  Independent  Study  program  were  its 
opportunities  for  exploration,  creativity,  and  growth.  An 
independent  gave  the  student  an  opportunity  for  explora- 
tion through  thorough  research  and  carefully  controlled 
experiments.  The  Independent  Study  program  also  allowed 
a  student  to  be  creative  in  choosing  a  topic,  in  finding  a 
unique  approach,  and  in  developing  a  project  or  paper.  The 
course  of  study  was  independent  and  unstructured,  allowing 
a  student  to  create  her  own  course  of  study.  Topics  were  as 
varied  as  the  people  who  chose  them  and  included  subjects 
such  as  the  concept  of  innocence  in  Faulkner's  novels,  the 
government  of  the  Phillippines,  music  in  the  works  of  Alex- 
ander Pope,  or  tumors  in  plants.  Student  displayed  creativ- 
ity in  developing  a  unique  approach  to  their  subjects.  They 
met  the  challenge  of  finding  something  new  and  exciting  to 
say.  At  the  end  of  her  study  a  student  produced  a  project  or 
paper  connected  with  her  research.  This  project  stood  by 
itself  as  a  creative  work,  something  of  which  the  student 
could  be  proud.  The  Independent  Study  program  was  final- 
ly a  program  which  furthered  academic  and  intellectual 
growth.  Through  independent  work  a  student  developed  her 
research  skills,  both  academic  and  scientific.  In  writing  her 
final  paper  she  became  more  adept  at  presenting  her  ideas 
logically  and  clearly.  Working  on  her  own  outside  of  the 
structured  classroom  setting  required  that  a  student  devel- 
op self-discipline.  Independent  study  also  allowed  a  student 
to  develop  a  working  relationship  with  a  professor  who 
served  as  her  advisor.  Both  students  and  professors  found 
this  aspect  of  the  program  exciting  and  stimulating,  as  they 
exchanged  ideas  and  worked  together  as  colleagues.  Final- 
ly, an  Independent  Study  enabled  the  liberal  arts  student  to 
acquire  a  deep  knowledge  of  her  chosen  topic.  She  became 
an  expert  on  her  subject.  More  importantly,  she  made  a 
contribution  to  scholarship  in  her  chosen  field.  Each  stu- 
dent who  completed  the  program  of  Independent  Study 
could  take  pride  in  her  project  and  in  her  growth  as  a 
scholar  and  an  individual. 

Another  type  of  special  program  available  to  Juniors  and 
Seniors  was  the  internship.  This  program  allowed  a  student 
to  further  her  knowledge  in  a  certain  area,  and  to  apply  the 
knowledge  she  had  gained  to  a  job  situation.  The  Legisla- 
tive Internship  during  winter  quarter  was  one  type  of  pro- 
gram offered.  Two  students,  majoring  either  in  History  or 
Political  Science,  were  selected  to  work  closely  with  certain 
members  of  the  Georgia  Assembly.  Many  students  were 
able  to  design  their  own  internship  with  a  professor's  ap- 
proval.

The  main  objective  of  Agnes  Scott  College  is  to 
provide  for  the  education  of  women  in  the  disciplines 
of  the  liberal  arts.  To  accomplish  this  goal,  Agnes 
Scott  had  to  rely  on  support  from  many  different 
offices  and  departments.  The  contributions  made  by 
offices  such  as  the  Dean  of  Faculty,  Dean  of  Students, 
and  the  various  academic  departments  were  easily 
recognized  and  appreciated.  However,  many  other 
offices  involved  in  the  line  of  support  did  not  always 
receive  the  attention  they  merited.  One  such  office 
was  that  of  Security.  The  Security  Office  saw  its  job 
as  providing  support  for  whatever  needed  to  be  done 
to  accomplish  the  goal  of  the  education  of  women 
here  at  Scott.  Security  was  able  to  provide  this  sup- 
port by  establishing  the  atmosphere  of  a  safe  environ- 
ment in  which  the  student  could  be  expected  to 
achieve  her  highest  potential  for  learning  and  knowl- 
edge. 

The  Security  Office  strove  to  make  the  environ- 
ment safe  not  only  from  crime,  but  also  from  physical 
hazards  such  as  fire.  The  seven  full-time  members  and 
the  three  part-time  members  of  the  security  force 
used  visibility  as  their  biggest  weapon  against  crime. 
They  based  their  work  on  the  belief  that  crime  was 
less  likely  to  occur  in  areas  that  people  knew  were 
watched  and  patrolled.  The  Security  Office  viewed 
the  passage  of  the  new  key  policy  as  a  step  on  the 
students'  part  toward  promoting  a  safe  environment, 
and  they  would  like  to  see  more  initiative  taken  on  the 
part  of  the  students. 

Security  was  also  a  vital  party  of  daily  life  on  cam- 
pus. Security  guards  opened  doors  for  those  who  for- 
got keys  and  escorted  students  across  campus  late  at 
night.  They  were  our  resident  auto  mechanics  —  help- 
ing to  change  tires  and  start  "dead"  cars.  Security  was 
with  us  around  the  clock  serving  as  helpers  and 
friends.  Indeed,  they  were  a  vital  part  of  our  support 
system  of  educators.

The  Lecture  Committee  was  com- 
posed of  twelve  interested  and  con- 
cerned faculty  and  students  from  Agnes 
Scott.  The  Committee's  purpose  was  to 
enrich  the  lives  of  the  students  and  the 
rest  of  the  Scott  community  through 
lectures,  music,  theatre  and  any  other 
related  area.  Requests  for  appearances 
were  taken  mainly  from  the  school  de- 
partments. 

During  the  1978-79  school  year,  the 
Lecture  Committee  sponsored,  or 
helped  to  sponsor,  people  from  diverse 
areas  of  interest.  Eudora  Welty  ap- 
peared on  campus  once  again  as  a  part 
of  the  freshmen  orientation  program.  In 
October,  Elizabeth  Hardwick,  noted 
journalist  and  editor  of  the  New  York 
Review  of  Books,  spoke  in  Dana.  The 
Atlanta  Chamber  Players  performed  in 
early  January,  and  the  Guarneri  String 
Quartet  returned  in  February.  Joseph 
Campbell,  philosopher  and  mytholo- 
gist,  spoke  in  February,  as  well.  Round- 
ing out  the  season.  The  Acting  Com- 
pany presented  Romeo  and  Juliet  in 
April.

Mary's  Lullabye 

Baby,  as  I  hold  you  in  my  arms 
I  feel  a  chill  run  down  my  spine 
I've  never  held  a  baby  before  .  .  . 

You  don't  seem  to  mind  the  way  I  tremble 

You  seem  to  understand 

But  that  can't  be  —  you've  never  been  where  I  am 

No  one  has. 

'Cause  baby,  as  I  hold  you  in  my  arms 

I  hold  a  miracle! 

Child  —  Your  mother's  never  known  a  man! 

No,  child,  the  man  by  my  side, 
He's  not  your  dad 
But  he'll  be  good  to  you 
He's  been  so  good  to  me  .  .  . 

But  baby,  your  Father's  far  away 

I  can't  say  just  where  — 

But  I  pray  you'll  be  just  like  Him. 

Baby,  by  the  way. 

Your  name  is  Jesus. 

That's  what  the  angel  said  to  call  you 

'Cause  you  will  save  our  people  from  their  sin 

I  wonder  how  .  .  . 

Baby,  I  must  admit  I'm  scared  — 

/  don't  know  what  it  all  means. 

But  I  hate  to  think  of  you  suffering! 

'Cause  ever  since  I  found  out  you  were  coming, 

I've  been  reading  what  your  Father  wrote  about  you. 

And  it  breaks  my  heart  to  see  what  you'll  endure  .  .  . 

And  I  rejoice  — 

/  rejoice! 

Messiah!  My  Sa  vior!  Son  of  God, 

and  KING  of  KINGS  someday! 

Just  now,  something  deep  inside  started  aching. 
Just  now,  I  felt  that  I  might  cry. 
And  I  know  why  .  .  . 

In  spite  of  what  you  are  to  me, 

I'm  still  your  mother 
In  spite  of  what  you'll  mean  to  all. 

You're  still  my  son 
And  I  long  to  guard  you  from  all  pain. 
But  that  would  never  do. 
For  just  like  you, 
I  live  to  serve  Jehovah! 
I  am  the  handmaid  of  the  Lord! 

"My  soul  doth  magnify  the  Lord, 

And  my  spirit  has  rejoiced 

In  God,  my  Savior. 

For  He  has  seen  my  low  estate. 

And  from  now  on  all  generations  shall  call  me  blessed. 

For  He  that  is  mighty  has  done  to  me  GREAT  THINGS! 

And  Holy  is  His  name! 

And  His  mercy  is  on  them  that  fear  Him 

from  generation  to  generation. 
He  has  shown  strength  with  His  arm, 
He  has  scattered  the  proud. 
He  has  put  down  the  mighty  from  their  seats 
And  exalted  them  of  low  degree. 
He  has  filled  the  hungry  with  good  things. 
But  the  rich,  He  has  sent  EMPTY  A  WA  Y! 

But  He  has  helped  his  servant,  Israel, 

In  remembrance  of  His  mercy 

As  He  spoke  to  our  fathers,  to  Abraham, 

And  to  his  seed,  yes,  to  his  seed  forevermore!" 

Cods'  word  alone  remains  the  same  — 

Forever! 

Forever!

Throughout  all  space,  minute  particles  of  dust  float. 
Black,  thin  but  dense,  luring  but  forbidding,  the  vastness 

encompasses  all: 
Nothing  but  dust  is  lighted  by  no  light. 
One  tiny  speck  of  dust  clings  to  another, 

the  two  of  them  to  still  another, 

again, 

again. 

Bang,  the  Earth  exists  in  this  endless  nothingless. 
As  more  dust  unites,  more  earths  occur. 

Dust  institutes  man  with  the  Earth. 

Man  gazes  outward  toward  the  gloomy  space. 
He  perceives  his  home  as  he  perceives  what  isn't. 
Man  searches  for  what  isn't  there:  a  task  with  which 

he  cannot  cope. 
His  parts  loosen  in  his  creative  body,  in  his  empty  soul. 
Man  unites  with  the  Earth. 

The  blue-green  Earth  whirls  about,  speckled  by  man,  in 

search  of  motives  for  its  whirling. 
Dust  is  blown  away  in  the  chase,  particles  trailing  along  behind, 

more, 

more. 

Space.

Comme  les  eaux  nacrees  de  ton  immensite 
Qui  en  vagues  de'ferient  sur  tes  plages  grises 
Les  reves  surgissent  la  nuit  pour  nous  tenter 
Puis  sur  la  realite  du  matin  se  brisent. 

Tes  ondes  meurtries  par  tes  dunes  de  galets 
Dans  I'ecume  de  leur  dernier  soupir  se  meurent 
Et    la  mouette  qui  dans  tes  yeux  se  contemplait 
Se  lamente  a  present  et  tourmente  mon  coeur. 

J'aimerais  tant  m'attarder  dans  ce  paradis 
Ou  mes  fantasmes  nocturnes  sont  des  tresors 
Que  mes  larmes  refoulees  rouillent  d'interdits 
A  la  vue  d'un  del  d'hiver  ou  se  noie  1  aurore.

Marion  T.  Clark  would  have  been  the  last  member  of  this 
faculty  to  have  wanted  his  virtues  extolled  in  public,  for  he  was 
a  modest  and  humble  man.  He  would  have  much  preferred 
that  we  be  about  our  business  of  instilling  in  students,  as  well 
as  in  faculty,  a  devotion  to  the  purposes  of  Agnes  Scott  Col- 
lege and  a  genuine  love  of  learning,  which  characterized  his 
life.  These  missions  were  primary  in  his  professional  life  as  a 
chemist  and  an  educator.  In  some  way,  however,  it  gives  us 
comfort  and  new  direction  to  remind  ourselves  of  the  many 
fine  qualities  which  made  this  man  a  very  special  person  to  all 
who  knew  him. 

As  a  teacher,  he  was  thorough,  but  realistic  in  his  expecta- 
tions; he  was  demanding,  but  patient  with  his  students'  strug- 
gles; he  was  serious,  but  jovial  in  conveying  the  fun  and  excite- 
ment of  chemistry. 

Marion  Clark  was  respected  and  admired  by  his  fellow 
faculty  members  not  only  for  his  abilities  as  a  chemist  and  as  a 
teacher,  but  also  for  his  personal  traits  of  wisdom,  honesty, 
compassion,  good  humor,  and  steadfastness  in  upholding  the 
principles  to  which  he  ascribed.  He  was  open-minded  and 
judicious,  but  always  adamant  about  upholding  those  princi- 
ples which  he  felt  were  the  foundations  of  a  good  education 
and  personal  integrity. 

Each  of  us  who  knew  Marion  Clark  was  aware  that  he  was  a 
loving  and  caring  friend,  a  devoted  husband  and  father,  and  a 
Christian  man  whose  every  action  reflected  his  deep  belief  in 
God.  We  are  grateful  for  his  presence  among  us  and  shall 
treasure  the  legacy  he  has  left  to  us.

The  New 
Faces  Of  '82 

Opportunities  for  leadership  came 
soon  to  freshmen  when  fall  class  elec- 
tions were  held.  The  new  Scotties  voted 
Nancy  Blake,  class  president,  and  Lau- 
chi  Wooley,  vice-president.  Maryellen 
Smith  became  secretary-treasurer  for 
the  1982'ers.  Other  potentially  impor- 

"The  class  unity  that  exists 
helps  everyone  feel  more  at 
home." 


tant  positions  on  various  boards  were 
filled  by  freshmen,  beginning  their  par- 
ticipation in  college  affairs.  Elections 
gave  freshmen  their  first  official  voice 
at  Agnes  Scott;  they  used  it  well.

Impressions  Of 
College  Life 

What  was  it  like  to  go  to  Agnes  Scott? 
Classes  held  in  the  basement  of  Walters  or 
in  the  heights  of  fourth  Campbell,  profes- 
sors who  apparently  knew  everything 
about  their  subjects,  course  work  that  cov- 
ered volumes  in  one  quarter  often  came  as 
a  jolt  to  freshmen.  While  classes  went  on 
(and  on  and  on),  there  was  also  Scott's 
dorm  life  to  tackle  —  how  to  choose  one  of 


"I  never  knew  I  could  learn  so 
much  in  such  a  short  time." 


29  possible  dorm  room  arrangements,  or 
ignore  Inman's  heating-percussion  system, 
for  example.  Together  with  new-found 
roommates,  freshmen  gathered  loads  of 
first-year  memories:  convocation  proces- 
sions of  faculty  in  caps  and  gowns,  even- 
ings spent  with  friends  in  Atlanta  or  alone 
in  the  stacks  of  McCain,  freezing  morn- 
ings and  icy  sidewalks,  excitement  at  get- 
ting back  the  first  quarter's  grades.  The 
class  of  1982  shared  it  all.

The 

Experience 
Of  Black  Cat 

If  Agnes  Scott's  annual  Black  Cat 
festivities  can  be  said  to  be  for  any  one 
class,  then  they  must  surely  be  for  the 
freshmen.  Halloween's  explosion  of  en- 
ergy, intrigue,  and  fun  crowds  the 
"cocky  new  girls'"  initiation  into  col- 
lege life  and  establishes  them  firmly  as 
part  of  the  student  body.  Working  with 
their  sister  class  of  Keystone  Cops  and 
behind   Peppermint   Patty   (their  new 

"It's  a  great  experience. 
Black  Cat  makes  us  fit  into 
the  college  community." 


new  mascot),  the  Class  of  1982  gradual- 
ly drew  its  members  closer  to  each  oth- 
er. By  October  20  —  a  day  devoted  to 
pie-eating,  egg-throwing,  and  tug  o' 
war,  the  traditional  rivalry  with  the 
sophomores  had  unified  Scott's  Fresh- 
men and  made  them  a  force  to  be  reck- 
oned with  in  field  day  competition.  The 
tension  ended  harmoniously,  however, 
with  the  Black  Cat  formal  dance  where 
upper  and  underclassmen  alike  cele- 
brated fall's  excitement.

The  Freshmen 
Year  Challenge 

Choices:  Shall  I  go  out  tonight  or  finish 
calculus?  Should  I  write  my  term  paper  on 
women  in  professional  or  traditional  roles? 
Will  I  have  time  to  be  a  Blackfriar  if  I 
have  two  labs  a  week?  Dilemmas  like  these 
gripped  every  student  occasionally,  but  for 
inexperienced  souls,  they  seemed  to  crop 
up  twice  as  often  and  were  more  difficult 
to  solve.  In  their  study  of  schedule-jug- 
gling, Scott  freshmen  could  try  all- 
nighters,  osmosis,  anything  to  get  their 
work  done.  The  challenge  was  to  learn  ma- 

"The  challenges  of  writing 
papers,  working  in  3-hour  labs, 
plus  the  work  required  of  us 
keeps  us  going." 

terial  thoroughly  —  and  quickly.  There 
were  also  social  adjustments  to  be  made  in 
adapting  to  college  life.  The  exercise  of  a 
new  independence  and  degree  of  participa- 
tion in  the  campus  activities  were  deci- 
sions as  important  as  academic  ones.  Be- 
ing a  freshman  and  a  student  at  Agnes 
Scott  meant  growing  intellectually  and 
emotionally.

Freshmen  Are 
Good  Sports 

Since  six  quarters  of  physical  education 
are  required  at  Agnes  Scott,  the  joys  of 
being  a  freshman  included  refining  and 
developing  her  athletic  prowess.  Though 
restricted  in  the  fall  to  field  hockey,  dance, 
and  swimming,  freshmen  soon  branched 
out  into  other  areas.  They  soon  undertook 
fencing  tennis,  camping,  golf,  riding,  bas- 
ketball,   and    badminton.    The    success, 

"Well,  there  are  certainly 
enough  sports  to  choose  from 
and  keep  everybody  happy." 

pride,  and  pain  (at  using  inactive  muscles) 
of  sports  complemented  academic  pro- 
gress. In  many  ways,  Agnes  Scott  was  a 
truly  competitive  place.

Yellow  Pages, 

Black  Kitty: 

What  a  Team! 

The  Sophomore  Class  was  rather 
pleased  with  itself  when  it  met  Peppermint 
Patty  long  before  she  was  ready  to  make 
her  debut  on  the  Agnes  Scott  Campus.  It 
felt  different  to  be  on  the  other  end  of  the 
pranks  and  each  sophomore  prided  herself 
in  being  witty  and  cagey  as  she  tried  to 
discover  the  Freshman  Class  mascot.  Spir- 
its were  high  and  the  excitement  the  Soph- 
omore Class  felt  was  expressed  in  the  mas- 
cot song  which  included  a  fancy  dance 
step.  The  Senior  Class  added  their  two 

"Black  Cat  gives  us  a  chance 
to  get  to  know  the  new

cents  in  with  the  Sophomore  Class  and  the 
two  united  against  the  freshmen  in  fun  and 
pranks.  Black  Cat  was  topped  by  the  win- 
ning of  the  Black  Kitty  Award  —  an  honor 
deserved  and  much  appreciated.

Battle  Winter 
Quarter  Blues 

Winter  Quarter  Blues  was  a  disease 
which  hit  every  Scottie,  but  the  Sopho- 
more Class  has  devised  the  best  possible 
vaccines  against  the  virus.  The  Class  of 
1981  ordered  class  rings;  staged  Sopho- 
more Parents'  Weekend;  participated  in 
Junior  Jaunt;  visited  Tech  and  Atlanta 
frequently  and  avoided  depression  in  any 
way  possible.  The  class  officers  initiated 
anti-blues  programs  under  the  direction  of 
Catherine  Craig,  president.  Helen  Ander- 
son, vice-president,  scheduled  events;  Su- 
san Barnes,  treasurer,  headed  up  T-shirt 


"Winter  Quarter  is  a  good 
time  for  making  new  friends." 


sales  and  handled  class  finances;  and  Lau- 
ra Klettner,  secretary,  informed  the  class 
about  what  was  going  on.  The  Blues  did 
not  seize  many  a  Soph!

We're  Gettin' 

Involved  And 

Lovin'  It 

On  a  campus  the  size  of  Agnes  Scott,  it 
was  a  great  advantage  to  have  sports  and 
activities  that  were  available  to  the  stu- 
dents. These  areas  were  broad  enough  to 
include  something  for  every  taste. 

A  favorite  among  the  Sophomore  Class 
seemed  to  be  Dance  Group,  with  a  little 
over  a  fourth  of  the  group  comprised  of 
sophomores.  Singing  appeared  to  run  a 
close  second  to  dancing,  and  a  large  num- 
ber of  sophomores  participated  in  the  Glee 

"I've  got  so  much  to  do  these 
days.  I  NEVER  have  time  to 
study." 


Club  and  other  musical  groups.  Other  ac- 
tivities which  appealed  to  the  Class  of 
1981  were  Dolphin  Club,  the  Profile, 
hockey  and  tennis  teams,  SGA  commit- 
tees. Language  Clubs,  and  practically  ev- 
ery other  activity  on  campus.  The  Yellow 
Pages  were  not  an  apathetic  or  lethargic 
group. 

In  addition  to  activities  at  Scott,  many 
sophomores  became  involved  in  off-cam- 
pus activities  and,  of  course,  Georgia 
Tech.

You  Mean  It's 
Time  To  Decide 
Already? 


What  is  the  average  Agnes  Scott  stu- 
dent looking  for?  Some  students  come  to 
Scott  with  an  idea  of  which  direction  they 
plan  to  point  their  studies,  but  after  a  year 
of  the  core  courses,  this  direction  may  ei- 
ther be  modified  or  changed  altogether. 
This  spring,  it  was  the  Yellow  Pages'  turn 
to  make  this  big  decision.  A  popular  major 
for  many  rising  juniors  turned  out  to  be 
the  sciences.  Biology  and  Chemistry  are 
very  popular,  with  Mathematics  and  Phys- 
ics drawing  renewed  interest.  Other  popu- 
lar majors  for  the  class  of  198 1  seem  to  be, 
as  always,  English,  History,  Art,  French, 
and  other  foreign  languages.  A  small  num- 
ber are  pursuing  Economics,  Political  Sci- 
ence, and  Music.  And,  some  sophomores 


"That  sounds  like  a  good  major. 
Maybe  I'll  try  that  one." 


very  ambitiously  designed  their  own  ma- 
jors. International  Relations  and  Medieval 
Studies  are  just  examples  of  the  students 
creativity  and  aspirations.

Starting  Our 
Second  Half 


When  Juniors  return  in  the  fall,  they 
are  shocked  to  find  their  class  radically 
reduced  in  number.  In  spite  of  the  re- 
duction, class  officers  search  for  dedi- 
cated Juniors  to  volunteer  for  commit- 
tees. True,  there  are  fewer  Juniors,  but 
the  work  never  decreases  over  the  sum- 
mer months.  Certainly  this  year's  offi- 
cers, Sandy  Burson,  president;  Susan 
Dodson,  vice-president;  and  Lisa  Bes- 
wick,  secretary/treasurer;  felt  the  bur- 


"Being  halfway  through  is 
relieving." 


den  of  unifying  the  Junior  class,  but, 
fortunately,  they  did  not  fight  the  battle 
alone. 

The  Advisory  Council  took  over  the 
responsibilities  of  class  communica- 
tions. Inspiring  class  enthusiasm  and 
participation  in  activities  was  the  most 
challenging  and  time  consuming  task 
for  the  council. 

In  winter  quarter,  the  Junior  class 
faced  the  prospect  of  organizing  an 
imaginative  charity  drive,  lovingly 
called  Junior  Jaunt.  With  the  theme  of 
the  roaring  20's,  the  event  took  place 
January  17-19.

Panic  Was  Our 
Worst  Enemy 


During  Black  Cat,  Sophomores  chased 
Freshmen  threatening  cold  showers  and 
short-sheeted  beds  in  the  attempt  to  dis- 
cover the  hidden  identity  of  the  mascot.  In 
the  midst  of  all  this  frantic  activity,  Sen- 
iors reminiscenced  about  Black  Cats  gone 
by,  and  Juniors  stretched  their  minds  back 
to  Freshmen  year  and  prepared  to  recreate 
the  excitement  and  confusion  of  that  first 
year  in  the  annual  Black  Cat  Production. 

Although  the  comedy  amused  every 
member  of  the  student  body,  it  was  specifi- 


"In  spite  of  the  work,  I  really 
enjoyed  being  involved  with 
the  production." 

cally  given  to  the  Juniors'  sister  class  as  a 
welcome  home  gift. 

Production  planning  began  in  the  spring 
with  the  class  voting  for  the  musical 
"Oklahoma!"  as  a  musical  structure  for 
the  Junior  Production.  The  work  contin- 
ued during  the  summer  as  the  Script 
Chairman  and  Lyricist  hurried  to  finish  a 
smooth  and  witty  musical  before  the  be- 
ginning of  fall  quarter.  All  that  was  left  to 
do  was  the  casting  of  characters  and  the 
scheduling  of  numerous  practices.  The 
staff  and  cast  led  by  Cindy  Dantzler,  Pro- 
duction Director,  and  Sarah  Fairburn,  As- 
sistant Director,  dedicated  their  spare 
time  and  all  of  their  energy  to  the  opening 
night.  All  the  participants  complained  and 
fretted  over  their  work  and  the  lack  of 
time  needed  to  finish  assignments,  but 
when  the  curtain  was  raised  on  October 
20,  1978,  no  one  regretted  the  hard  work 
or  sacrificed  time. 

Revolving  around  the  contrasting  per- 
sonalities of  the  two  main  characters  of 
Mary  and  Jeannie  and  their  growth  into 
ASC  students,  the  Production  explored 
different  aspects  of  ASC  life  including 
blind  dates,  Freshmen  English  classes,  and 
all-nighters.  Whether  the  Production  en- 
lightened and  educated,  or  simply  remind- 
ed the  different  members  of  the  audience 
of  past  experiences,  it  was  agreed  by  all 
that  the  musical  was  a  memorable  success.

Experiencing 

A  Different 

Kind  Of  Year 


By  the  time  a  student  reaches  junior 
status,  she  has  decided  on  her  major 
field.  After  many  erasures,  the  infa- 
mous blue  cards  are  finally  filled  out  on 
the  top  line.  It  does  not  matter  whether 
one's  major  is  the  foundation  for  gra- 
duate school,  for  a  career,  or  simply  for 
pleasure;  in  all  cases  it  is  an  opportunity 
to  enlighten  oneself  in  a  major  field. 

The  Class  Scholarship  Trophy  is  a 
prized  treasure  at  Agnes  Scott.  This 
year  the  Class  of  1980  laid  claim  to  this 
honor.  Fall  quarter,  freshman  year  not 


"Deciding  a  major  was  hard 
enough.  Working  in  your 
major  is  even  harder." 


many  members  of  this  class  would  have 
thought  that  their  grades  would  have 
contributed  to  obtaining  the  trophy. 
However,  diligent  hours  in  the  library 
and  late  night  studying  paid  off  this 
year;  for  the  trophy  belonged  to  the 
Class  of  '80. 

During  this  academic  year,  seven  ju- 
niors spent  their  year  away  from  the 
campus.  Nancy  Campbell  and  Judy 
Smith  braved  Paris  after  an  orientation 
program  in  Tours.  Christine  Silvio 
furthered  her  interests  in  languages  at 
the  University  of  Marburg.  Susie  Ham 
and  Melanie  Hardy  experienced  life  in 
the  Scottish  countryside  as  they  studied 
at  St.  Andrews.  Laramie  Larsen  stud- 
ied medieval  and  renaissance  literature, 
Scottish  and  art  history  in  Aberdeen, 
Scotland.  Debbie  Bolter,  a  chemistry 
major,  participated  in  an  internship  at 
the  Center  for  Disease  Control  in  At- 
lanta during  fall  quarter.

The  Tradition 
Of  Capping 

After  three  years  .  .  .  three  long, 
hard  years  . .  . ,  the  night  finally  comes 
.  .  .  the  night  which  marks  the  begin- 
ning of  the  end.  That  night  makes  it  all 
worthwhile.  To  some  it  might  seem  a 
silly  tradition,  but  capping  is  a  very  sig- 
nificant ceremony  in  our  academic  life. 
It  is  the  symbolic  beginning  of  the  sen- 
ior year.  Each  senior  picks  a  junior  to 

"Capping  is  the  big 
achievement  of  the  first 
three  years." 

"cap."  The  capping  entails  a  special 
dinner  in  the  dining  hall,  a  secret  cere- 
mony behind  Buttrick  and  in  the  little 
quad,  and  usually  partying  before  and 
after  the  ceremony.  The  next  day,  the 
juniors  attend  class  in  caps  and  gowns. 
The  old  seniors  now  relinquish  their 
privileges  with  mixed  emotions.

Investiture: 

The  Official 

Recognition 

Of  Senior  Status 


138 

Seniors 


Dressed  in  traditional  academic  gowns 
with  mortar  boards  carefully  held  before 
them,  the  members  of  the  Senior  Class  pro- 
gressed across  campus  from  Rebekah  Porch 
to  Presser  Hall  on  Saturday  morning,  No- 
vember 4.  Senior  Investiture  Weekend  had 
officially  begun.  Family  and  friends  joined 
this  year's  seniors  to  celebrate  and  to  confirm 
the  senior  status  of  the  Class  of  1979.  After 
three  years  of  life  at  Agnes  Scott,  this  group 
of  students  assumed  the  dignity  of  their  aca- 
demic gowns  with  the  rapidly  approaching 
end  of  their  years  at  Scott  in  sight  and  the 
opportunity  for  a  new  beginning  just  beyond 
the  horizon. 

At  an  institution  embeded  in  tradition, 
what  is  the  relevance  of  Senior  Investiture 
today?  This  service  of  recognizing  and  honor- 
ing the  members  of  the  senior  class  originated 
with  the  Class  of  1908,  and  the  term  "Invest- 
ing" appeared  in  1912.  Until  the  public  cere- 
mony of  the  Class  of  1913,  this  event  had 
remained  a  private  affair  held  in  President 
Gaine's  office.  Saturday  and  Sunday,  No- 
vember 4-5,  1978,  marked  the  special  week- 
end of  this  year's  graduating  class.  The  week- 
end offered  various  events.  During  the  Inves- 
titure Service  on  Saturday  in  Gaine's  Chapel, 
the  senior  class  and  their  guests  listened  to 
Dr.  Margaret  W.  Pepperdene  deliver  an  af- 
firmative address  on  the  value  of  liberal  and 
humane  learning  leading  to  the  kind  of 
knowledge  that  enables  mankind  "To  Judge, 
and  Choose  and  Renounce  and  .  .  .  Create." 
Dean  Gary  placed  the  mortar  boards  on  each 
senior's  head  symbolizing  the  arrival  of  senior 
status.  Following  the  Investiture  Service, 
Dean  Kirkland  and  Dean  Gary  entertained 
the  seniors  and  their  guests  with  a  brunch  in 
Winship  Lobby.  A  senior  exhibit  in  Rebekah 
Reception  Room,  featuring  a  display  of  the 
seniors'  accomplishments  in  their  majors,  ac- 
companied President  and  Mrs.  Perry's  Conti- 
nental breakfast  on  Sunday  morning.  After 
this  breakfast,  in  the  traditional  Sunday 
church  service,  the  Reverend  Richard  G. 
Hutcheson,  Jr.  inspired  everyone  with  his 
message  entitled  "Servant  Leadership  in  a 
Technological  Age." 

Each  senior  accepted  the  college's  honor 
with  a  tinge  of  sadness  as  graduation  drew 
near,  but  acknowledged  an  intense  excite- 
ment with  her  new  beginnings.  And  as  Dr. 
Pepperdene  reminded  the  seniors  of  the  true 
value  of  their  liberal  arts  education,  she  re- 
called the  philosophy  of  old  Phoenix  Jackson: 
"It  gonna  last."

Still  Friends 

After 

Four  Years 


Friendships  at  Agnes  Scott  are  close,  for 
friends  become  more  than  acquaintances; 
they  become  a  second  family.  We  are  with 
our  friends  most  of  the  day  —  taking  classes, 
studying,  eating,  meeting  and  chatting  infor- 
mally. Friendships  provide  opportunities  for 
fun,  such  as  kidnapping  an  unsuspecting 
Scottie  for  breakfast  on  her  birthday,  making 
midnight  runs  to  Krispy  Kreme  or  Dunkin' 
Donuts,  and  taking  trips  to  New  York  or 
Florida  over  spring  break.  Friends  appear  in 
a  time  of  need;  providing  rides  to  the  airport, 
typing  a  last  minute  paper,  and  sharing  tea 
and  sympathy.  In  fact,  sharing  is  the  key  to 
friendships,  and  friends  share  many  things, 
from  sweaters  to  perfume,  or  from  late-night 
popcorn  parties  to  an  evening  at  the  Sympho- 
ny. Friends  also  share  double  dates,  pizzas, 
mountain  hikes,  records,  pencils,  pictures, 
evenings  out,  books,  class  notes,  jokes,  Satur- 
day Night  Live,  movies,  shopping  trips,  all- 
nighters,  goodies  from  home,  and  soap. 
Friends  provide  diversity  and  a  different 
point  of  view.  The  English  major  has  close 
friends  majoring  in  History,  Political  Sci- 
ence, Economics,  Biology,  French,  Theatre, 
and  Psychology;  while  the  dancer  has  friends 
involved  in  theatre,  sports,  Glee  Club,  Dol- 
phin Club,  or  the  Silhouette  staff.  Having 
friends  whose  interests  differ  from  ours  gives 
us  the  opportunity  to  expand  ourselves  and  to 
learn  informally  about  many  subjects.  Our 
friends  are  precious,  and  sadly  we  realize  that 
soon  we  will  be  separated  by  distance.  Yet  we 
reassure  ourselves  that  ties  made  at  Agnes 
Scott  will  remain  strong  in  years  to  come,  and 
our  friendships  will  continue  to  be  shared 
experiences-

Each  year  Agnes  Scott  College  nomi- 
nates a  group  of  seniors  to  be  members  of 
Who's  Who  Among  Students  in  American 
Universities  and  Colleges.  Nomination  is 
based  on  high  academic  standing,  commu- 
nity service,  leadership  ability,  and  poten- 
tial for  the  future.  This  year,  sixteen  mem- 
bers of  the  Class  of  1979  were  chosen  to

Where  Do  We  Go 
From  Here? 

The  time  has  finally  come.  We  are  sen- 
iors and  this  is  our  own  graduation.  What 
next?  For  three  years,  we've  watched  the 
graduates  receive  their  diplomas.  Now  it  is 
our  turn  —  where  will  we  go  from  here?  In 
late  fall,  almost  all  of  us  were  uncertain 
about  what  our  post-graduation  plans 
would  be.  Here  are  some  estimates:  as  of 
that  time,  45  percent  of  us  hoped  to  find  a 
job,  preferably  in  the  South.  A  big  40  per- 
cent of  us  planned  to  go  on  to  do  graduate 
studies  in  such  varied  fields  as  medicine, 
business,  law,  psychology  and  biology. 
Evidently  our  studies  at  Agnes  Scott  have 
made  us  want  to  know  more!  9  percent  of 
us  wanted  to  travel  some  before  settling 
down.  Some  hoped  to  be  stewardesses  or 
just  to  spend  some  time  in  Europe.  Some 
of  us  had  our  eyes  on  England  or  Scotland 
as  a  good  place  to  expand  the  mind.  On  the 
other  hand,  5  percent  of  us  already  heard 
wedding  bells  in  the  near  future  . .  .  The 
remaining  1  percent  simply  had  no  idea  of 
where  we  would  be  or  what  we  would  be- 
come. Whatever  the  case,  may  we  all  pros- 
per and  be  happy  in  whatever  we  do.

What  Famous 
Person  Is 
Buried  In 
Grant's  Tomb? 


For  the  past  few  years,  Agnes  Scott 
students  and  faculty  have  been  trying 
to  build  a  strong  College  Bowl  Team. 
This  year  Dr.  Jack  Nelson,  with  help 
from  Dr.  and  Mrs.  Harry  Wistrand, 
Dr.  Michael  Brown,  Dr.  Linda  Woods, 
and  Dr.  Arthur  Bowling,  coached  the 
team.  Most  of  the  students 
participating  were  sophomores.  The 
students  who  practiced  regularly  and 
attended  competitions  were  Ila 
Burdette,  Carol  Chapman,  Julie  Daniel, 


Kathy  Helgesen,  Helen  Hill,  Lisa 
Merrifield,  Susan  Nicol,  and  Diane 
Shaw. 

The  teams  entered  three  tournaments 
winter  quarter:  the  Early-Bird  Charger 
Invitational  at  the  University  of 
Alabama  at  Huntsville,  the  Tenth 
Annual  Southeastern  Invitational 
College  Bowl  at  Georgia  Tech,  and  the 
Region  VI  ACU-I  Tournament  at  Georgia 
Southwestern  College  in  Americus.  Dr. 
Woods  coached  the  team  at  the  first 
two  tournaments  when  Dr.  Nelson  was 
unable  to  attend.  Although  the 
Agnes  Scott  team  did  not  place  in  any 
of  the  tournaments,  they  did  play 
well.  At  Americus,  Ila  Burdette  was 
one  of  five  players  named  by  the 
coaches  to  the  tournament's  All-Star 
Team.  Only  one  other  undergraduate  was 
chosen,  the  other  three  were  graduate 
students. 

The  team  planned  to  play  a  campus 
match  against  a  faculty  team.  They 
spent  the  spring  quarter  establishing 
the  College  Bowl  as  a  permanent  campus 
organization  by  drawing  up  a 
constitution  and  a  budget.  Another  f 

project  involved  compiling  information 
files  for  use  next  year.  Since  only 
two  members  graduate  in  June,  next 
year's  team  will  be  an  experienced  one

Steam  Rises 
Over  ASC 
Subway  System 


For  the  past  three  years,  most 
Scotties  have  been  aware  of  the 
construction  of  MARTA's  subway  station 
in  Decatur.  In  February,  as  bulldozers 
and  tractors  moved  in  and  began  to 
dig  up  the  campus  in  two  spots,  it 
appeared  that  the  Physical  Plant  had 
started  work  on  the  "Agnes  Scott 
Subway."  After  all,  why  shouldn't  the 
school  have  its  own  feeder  line  into 
the  MARTA  system?  Logically,  the  main 
boarding  area  would  be  in  front  of 
the  Dining  Hall,  with  another  stop 
near  Winship  and  the  Health  Center. 
So  the  trenches  were  dug  and  men 
worked  in  the  red  clay  for  several 
days.  Finally  someone  decided  to  ask 
Mr.  Black,  Director  of  the  Physical 
Plant,  when  the  subway  would  open. 
"Subway,  what  subway?"  Obviously  Mr. 


Black  knew  nothing  about  this  new         ^»f - 
branch  of  MARTA.  Well,  what  was  all 
the  digging  for?  Some  old  steam  pipes 
had  broken  and  had  to  be  replaced. 
Well,  even  though  there  would  not  be     ^s 
an  ASC  Subway,  at  least  Scotties  were  i2* 
guaranteed  warm  rooms  for  the  winter.

Think  Sleet! 

Monday,  February  19,  1979,  will  be  a 
day  remembered  by  Scotties  as  one  of 
the  two  times  in  the  history  of  the 
college  that  classes  were  cancelled. 
On  Sunday,  students  awoke  to  a  sleet 
covered  campus.  Only  Mrs.  Saunders  had 
arrived  to  prepare  and  serve  breakfast. 
So  for  the  next  day  and  a  half, 
Scotties  helped  out  by  serving 
themselves  and  cleaning  off  tables. 
Monday  at  lunch,  Dean  Kirkland  served 
fish  sticks  and  "pushed"  vegetables 
Many  students  borrowed  old  trays  from 
the  Dining  Hall  and  headed  for  the 
nearest  hill.  Even  though  the  city  was 
at  a  standstill,  the  library  opened  as 
scheduled  on  Sunday  and  Monday.  Sunday 
night,  freshmen  began  hoping  classes 
would  be  cancelled.  Upperclassmen  said 
no,  even  when  Dean  Kirkland  called  to 
say  no  classes  on  Monday.  Finally 
juniors  and  seniors  began  to  believe 
an  Agnes  Scott  miracle  had  occurred.

Anne  Lindsey 
Is  Ready 
When  You  Are 

As  many  seniors  know,  getting  a  job, 
especially  with  an  air  line,  can  be 
quite  complicated.  But  this  year, 
Scotties  had  an  edge  on  getting  these 
coveted  positions  because  Anne 
Lindsey,  a  personnel  officer  in  charge 
of  recruiting  flight  attendants  for 
Delta  Air  Lines,  lived  on  the  Agnes 
Scott  campus.  Ms.  Lindsey,  known  to 
some  as  Sarah  Windham,  showed  her 
concern  for  prospective  employees 
by  calling  them  to  verify  and  clarify 
information  on  their  applications 
before  she  decided  which  lucky  young 
women  would  wear  Delta  wings. 


The  Career  Planning  Office  went  out 
of  its  way  to  help  seniors  interview 
with  as  many  companies  as  possible. 
When  Kathleen  Mooney,  Director  of 
Career  Planning,  heard  that  two 
seniors  wanted  careers  with  Ronco, 
Inc.,  she  arranged  for  Mr.  Walt 
Grassner  to  make  a  special  visit  to 
the  campus.  Mr.  Grassner  was  trying  to 
fill  positions  in  the  Department  of 
Research  and  Development  of  Household 
and  Kitchen  Gadgets.  At  the  last 
minute  an  ice  storm  prevented  Mr. 
Grassner  from  arriving  for  the 
interviews.  Even  though  they  had 
missed  their  big  chances,  the  students 
appreciated  Mrs.  Mooney's  efforts.

Rhetorical  Questions  And  Excuses,  Or 

WHY...? 


...  go  to  class?  ...  do  your 
homework?  Afterall,  we  are  on  this 
earth  for  but  a  short  time  —  why 
waste  these  fleeting  moments  of  our 
youth  in  hours  of  study  and  tedium 
when  life  awaits  us  with  its  many 
temptations  (sort  of  reminds  one  of 
Eve  in  the  Garden  . . . )? 

Perhaps,  one  might  retort,  the  fact 
that  Daddy  spends  boo-coo's  of  bucks 
on  his  darling  daughter  to  send  her  to 
something  other  than  a  finishing 
school  or  vocational  ed  school  (see 
pp.  98-99)  will  phase  some.  Still 
others  are  genuine  lovers  of 
knowledge.  These  are  the  souls  who 
spend  Friday  night  in  the  Library 
(nice  as  it  is  since  its  renovation,  the 
Library  hardly  matches  an  aisle  seat 
at  "The  Rocky  Horror  Picture 
Show"),  and/or  feel  guilty  if  they  do 
not  devote,  say,  fourteen  of  their 
sixteen  waking  hours  to  Agnes. 
(Note:  The  two  unaccounted  for 
hours  are  set  aside  for  meals,  those 
invigorating  walks  to  class,  as  well  as 
those  other  personal  necessities,  i.e. 
dressing,  etc.)  Not  that  I  do  not 
respect  these  diligent  individuals  in 
their  struggle  for  academic  solvency 
—  quite  the  contrary:  I  admire  them. 


However  . . . 

Study,  like  booze,  in  too  large  a 
quantity,  can  torque  out  your  whole 
system. 

I  suggest,  on  the  other  hand,  a 
happy  medium  —  a  combination  of 
rational  and  irrational,  work  and  play, 
study  and  booze  ...  uh,  recreation. 
One  can  still  attain  quality  grades 
and  go  "out  with  the  girls"  one 
(maybe  even  two)  nights  a  week.  It  is 
depressing  to  see  a  girl  of  eighteen 
(or  twenty-two,  for  that  matter)  look 
lifeless  and  glassy-eyed  from  self- 
inflicted  over-work  (now,  I  know 
there  are  times  when  teachers  inflict 
the  heavy  loads  —  those  times  can 
only  be  ignored  to  a  certain  poirit  at 
which  time  the  inevitable,  notorious 
"all-nighter"  occurs).  However,  at 
this  age,  a  certain  amount  of 
immaturity  is  essential  ...  it  gives  a 
person  the  roses  in  her  cheeks  and 
the  sparkle  in  her  eyes  that 
differentiate  her  from  any  one  of  the 
books  she  could  find  in  the  Library.  I 
am  not  asking  for  irresponsibility,  just 
fun  within  limits,  liveliness  within 
boundaries  —  and  a  well-rounded 
view  of  life  through  experience.

.  .  .  become  a  well-rounded  individual? 
Experience  the  challenge  of  not  doing 
what  you  are  supposed  to  be  doing  at 
a  particular  moment.  Granted,  there 
is  a  price  to  pay  (no  —  your  professors 
will  not  accept  bribes  —  not  that  kind 
of  price).  Rather,  it  is  the  price 
of  maybe  thinking  up  a  few  excuses. 

A  word  on  excuses  . . . 

Excuses  were  invented  to  pacify 
people.  The  word  itself  carries  a 
connotation  of  a  hidden  design  or 
a  lurking  understatement.  However, 
the  excuse,  in  general,  has 
a  dual  nature:  not  only  does  it  pacify 
the  listener,  but  it  also  soothes  the 
teller's  conscience.  Each  person  has 
the  satisfaction  of  having  been  told, 
or  of  having  told,  some  (hopefully) 
rational  cause  for  an  unusual 
occurance.  Now,  as  to  the  extent  of 
belief  . . . 

Excuses  should  be  reasonable. 
Sickness  is  a  reasonable  excuse. 
Death  (your  own)  is  not. 

Have  the  appropriate  look  about  you. 
Appearing  calm,  cool  and  collected  as 
you  explain  that  your  twenty-three 
page  term  paper  was  in  your  eight- 
piece-matched-set  luggage,  and  said 
luggage  went  to  Paducah,  Kentucky, 
instead  of  following  you  to  Atlanta 
after  your  extended  weekend,  is 
certainly  going  to  earn  a  raised 
eyebrow.  Look  properly  harried  — 
especially  if  it  is  true  (and,  I 
might  remind  you,  we  are  on  an  honor 
system  here  at  Agnes  Scott).  Which 
paranthetical  comment  brings  up  another 
point:  fibs,  white  lies  and  evasions 
of  the  truth  can  seldom  be  hidden  for 
long.  So,  you  were  sick  yesterday  — 
of  studying.  The  Infirmary  does  not 
give  notes  for  spring  fever. 

Also,  drinking  is  no  excuse  for  a 
mid-week  blow-out  of  homework. 
Most  fellow  students  can  empathize 
with  a  sudden  desire  for  the  solace 
found  in  a  pitcher  of  beer.  However, 
beer,  as  a  rule,  does  not  inspire  one 
to  greater  heights  of  understanding 
when  one  finally  returns  to  the  books. 
All  beer  does  is  make  the  bed  look  more 
inviting,  and  the  homework  look  more  as 
if  it  will  keep  until  tomorrow  . . .  and 
tomorrow  . . .  and  tomorrow  . . .

t.J. 
2/ 


Forgetting  for  a  time  my  original 
intention  of  reveling  in  other 
people's  debauchery,  I  flipped 
through  the  paper  in  an  attempt 
to  discover  what  information  it  had 
to  offer  which  would  rival  the 
colorful  Personal  (oh,  how  personal!) 
section.  What  I  found  amazed  me. 
Creative  Loafing  contained  the 
names  of  places,  lists  of  activities, 
suggestions  of  ways  —  to  loaf 
creatively. 

Needless  to  say,  I  was  amazed  — 
not  that  a  paper  should  hold  such 
a  wealth  of  information,  but  that  I 
had  neither  heard  of  nor  taken 
advantage  of  99%  of  these  suggestions. 
Having  absorbed  some  form  of 
rational  thought  from  my  many  years 
at  Scott,  my  mind  jumped  (or  should 
I  say  "leapt"?)  at  the  inevitable 
question  ("chasm")  before  me: 

What  have  I  done? 

I  scratched  my  head.  An  idea 
struck  me  (sort  of  like  flying 
debris) 

I  pulled  out  a  piece  of  paper 


to  make  a  list.  Sitting  at  my  desk 
with  pen  in  hand  I  waited  for  my  mind 
to  click  into  gear. 

What  have  I  done? 

Once  again,  I  scratched  my  head. 

I  fidgetted. 

I  stretched  and  yawned.  Maybe 
this  list  was  not  such  a  good  ideal 
. . .  But  no,  I  was  determined. 
That  restless,  unrelenting  spirit 
that  lies  hidden  deep  within  each 
of  us  had  had  its  curiosity 
aroused. 

What  have  I  done? 

After  watching  the  minute  hand 
on  my  clock  lurch  forward  sporadically 
for  ten  minutes,  I  took  action. 
Look,  I  told  myself,  approach  this 
thing  logically  —  humm. 

Stalemate. 

You  live  outside  Atlanta,  I 
prodded.  What  would  attract  someone 
to  Atlanta?  Hmm. 

Suddenly,  there  was  a  flash  in 
the  night  as  I  recalled  my  impressions 
of  "Hot'lanta"  immediately  preceding, 
as  well  as  during  my  Freshman  year 
at  Scott.  Atlanta  stretched  before 
me,  a  southern  goldmine  of 
entertainment  and  fun.  The  city 
glowed  in  the  sunlight  as  silver 
buildings  reached  for  the  sky,  and 
ribbons  of  roads  showed  the  blur  of 
cars  speeding  by. 


But  what  was  there? 


The  airport 
sight-seeing. 


not  a  place  to  go 


Six  Flags.  I  smiled  at  the 
thought  of  an  amusement  park  —  then 
shook  my  head  as  I  realized  I  had  not 
been  there  since  the  Freshman  Orien- 


tation trip  —  back  in  the  days  when 
tickets  cost  only  one  arm  instead 
of  two. 

The  Capital  building  —  I 
think  that  is  what  it  is  ...  that 
building  on  the  right  as  you  go 
west  on  1-20  . . .  with  the  lady  on 
top  . . .  gold  ...  oh,  well  . . . 

Uhm  . . .  shrines  ...  to  Martin 
Luther  King  , . .  well,  no,  I  had 
passed  that  on  the  Freshmen  tour. 
(Don't  they  have  a  street  named  after] 
him?  I  never  go  to  that  part  of 
town,  though  —  seems  to  me  it  should 
be  somewhere  near  the  Capital  . . . ) 

Braves  Stadium  —  oh,  excuse  me, 
I  mean  Fulton  County  Stadium  —  I 
thought  hopefully.  But,  no,  I  had 
only  seen  the  outside  of  that. 

Now,  I  had  driven  down  West  Pac 
Ferry  to  see  the  Governor's  Mansion 
and  the  ritzy  houses.  However,  as 
I  recall,  I  got  lost  that  day  and 
headed  toward  Tennessee  instead  of 
Atlanta. 

Of  course,  there  are  always 
museums,  but  I  hardly  think  that 
is  what  /  came  to  Atlanta  for. 

I  have  gone  to  the  Metropolitan 
Opera.  I  have  to  admit  I  was  shocked] 
when  I  recognized  a  song  in  the  show| 
Nearly  fell  out  of  my  chair.  The 
Symphony  —  no,  never  got  there.  An 
the  few  plays  were  class  assignments. 

What  about  Stone  Mountain?  (Wha 
about  it?)  The  granite  relief  I  can 
do  without  after  five  or  ten  minutes, 
but  the  park  is  great  for  a  picnic. 

And  there  is  Marietta  —  not  much  ] 
there  except  Cumberland  Mall. 

Speaking  of  which  . . . 

Shopping  I  have  done  . . .  Atlanta 
could  live  on  the  money  I  have  spent 


ill 


on  presents,  records,  clothes  and 
food.  Lenox  Square  I  know  backwards 
and  forwards.  Cumberland  Mall  is 
too  big.  Northlake  has  some  good- 
looking  salesmen  . . .  (just  checking 
out  the  scenery  —  that  is  part  of 
Atlanta,  too,  y'know).  South  Dekalb. 
North  Dekalb.  More  malls  than  people 
to  shop  in  them. 

I  never  have  been  to  the  zoo  (yes, 
Atlanta  has  a  zoo).  Maybe  I  should 
go  there  and  feed  the  elephants 
sometime  . . .  Never  seen  the  Cyclo- 
rama,  either  (look  that  up  in  your 
Funk  and  Wagnall's). 

I  have  been  to  Chattanooga.  — 
but  I  guess  that  has  nothing  to  do 
with  Atlanta. 

Have  you  seen  the  Keebler  factory 
on  1-75  South?  Yes,  they  have  elves 
in  their  tree  . . . 

Central  City  Park  is  beautiful 
in  the  early  morning  —  I  took  the 
bus  to  Lenox  and  did  not  have  a 
choice  about  seeing  the  park.  It  is 
one  of  the  Coke  company's  gifts  to 
Atlanta  (along  with  the  "no  deposit, 
no  return"  bottle).  One  half  of 
Atlanta  is  owned  by  Coke.  The  other 
half  is  owned  by  Gulf. 

Piedmont  Park  is  safe  if  you  are 
heterosexual.  Nice  park,  but  I 
would  not  want  to  be  gay  there. 

MARTA  construction  surrounds  us 
so  I  could  not  avoid  it.  Looks  like 
a  herd  of  giant  moles  are  taking 
over  underground  Atlanta.  Maybe  one 
day  before  I  graduate  I  will  get  to 
ride  the  subway  —  if  the  engineers 
will  stop  playing  with  their  new 
toys  long  enough  to  let  on  passengers. 

I  finally  got  to  see  the  Fox 
Theater.  Impressive.  Too  bad  I  was 
in  nose-bleed  city. 

I  have  driven  up  Peachtree  Street 


and  seen  the  hookers  and  the  traffic. 
I  have  been  inside  Peaches  and  Oz. 
I  have  gotten  a  "slice"  at  Franco's. 
I  have  seen  the  lines  for  the  "Rocky 
Horror  Picture  Show"  —  I  have  never 
gotten  in  to  see  the  toast,  the  rice 
or  the  Scott  tissue. 

I  have  never  been  to  a  gay  bar. 

Bars. 

That  is  another  story.  There  are 
bars  everywhere,  even  on  top  of  the 
Peachtree  Plaza  Hotel.  Impressive. 
Drink  while  Atlanta  circles  below 
you.  The  Hyatt-Regency  has  the 
Polaris  Room.  Although  not  seventy- 
some  stories  off  the  street  level, 
the  Polaris  Room  is  recognizable  as 
"that  blue  thing  on  top  of  that 
building". 

There  are  still  other  bars,  I  am 
told.  I  am  not  sure  where  they  are. 
Of  course  there  are  the  disco's.  I 
have  only  been  to  one  —  Tingle's. 
I  did  not  Tingle.  But  Flannigan's, 
Pogo's  and  Gerald's  are  a  small  drop 
in  the  bucket.  They  are  not 
good  places  to  drink  anyway  — 
unless  it  is  nickel  pitcher  night. 
(I  have  my  priorities.) 

And,  as  for  drinking,  it  seems 
as  if  we  choose  the  same  places 
consistently.  All  the  drinking 
establishments  in  this  town  (even 
if  I  cannot  remember  them,  or  even 
know  that  they  exist  in  the  first 
place)  and  Scotties  still  go  to 
P.J.'s,  Moe's,  P  by  C,  the  Beer  Mug, 
Pippin's  and  Spiro's.  I  plead  "habit" 
for  my  lack  of  drinking  establishment 
variety. 

But,  then  again,  I  guess  habit  has 
dictated  more  than  just  my  drinking 
places.  What  I  do  not  know  about 
Emory,  I  know  about  Tech.  I  could 
probably  drive  the  road  over  there 
while  asleep  —  put  the  car  on 
automatic  pilot.  Heaven  knows  I  have 


driven  back  to  Scott  half-asleep 
enough  times.  I  think  I  would  get 
lost  if  I  were  not  slightly  out  of 
it  while  speeding  down  Ponce. 

I  can  tell  you  virtually  every 
establishment  that  lines  Ponce  from 
Scott  to  Tech.  I  can  make  it  from 
Tech  to  Scott  and  only  stop  for  three 
—  count  'em,  three  —  lights. 
I  know  every  pothole  in  the  road.  I 
could  tell  you  how  late  "Church's"  is 
open.  MARTA  and  Southern  Bell 
construction  behind  the  Fox  has  been 
followed  by  me  because  it  is  "on  the 
way."  Krispy  Kreme  is  a  good  place 
to  stop  for  a  midnight  snack.  Lots 
of  characters.  Watch  the  wierdos 
outside  Plaza  Drugs. 

I  have  ridden  MARTA.  Lots  of 
great  people  on  MARTA  —  a  few 
wierd  ones,  but  you  can  find  them 
anywhere.  The  nice  people  I  have 
met  have  made  the  trips  worthwhile. 
Atlanta  is  full  of  nice  people  — 
genuine  Southern  hospitality,  I 
guess.  They  are  not  afraid  to  talk 
to  a  stranger. 

So,  I  thought,  what  have  I  done? 

I  have  seen  a  little  culture. 

I  have  met  some  nice  people. 

I  have  gatored  with  the  best. 

And  I  have  partied  with  the  rest. 

Maybe  in  my  stay  at  Scott  I  have 
not  taken  advantage  of  all  that 
Atlanta  has  to  offer  me  —  but  I  am 
young.  Those  things  will  still  be 
standing  when  I  finally  get  around 
to  seeing  them  —  someday,  when  I  am 
older  and  am  not  pressed  by  the  rush 
of  fleeting  youth.  Atlanta  still 
stretches  silver  fingers  to  the  sky 
in  my  mind  because  I  know  the 
potential  for  activity  is  here  — 
even  if  I  have  not  tasted  it  to  its 
fullest  extent  • —  yet.

When  All  Is  Said  And  Done 


Many  hours  of  hard  work  have  elapsed  since 
last  spring  when  the  yearbook  was  still  in  the 
planning  stages  and,  although,  the  work  on  the 
yearbook  ended  two  months  ago,  the  purpose  of 
the  1979  Silhouette  lives  on.  Our  goal  for  the 
year  was  to  design  a  book  that  would  become  a 
"piece  of  your  past  in  the  future."  Years  from 
now,  you  will  be  the  judge  for  you  will  know  if 
we  reached  our  goal.  For  now,  I  believe  we 
succeeded. 

I  wish  to  express  my  sincere  apreciation  to 
every  staff  member  whose  talents,  efforts,  and 
patience  did  not  go  by  unnoticed.  The  contribu- 
tions of  three  staff  members  merit  special  rec- 
ognition: Kay  Kirkland  for  spending  many  an 
afternoon  in  the  darkroom  developing  and 
printing  pictures;  Anne  Jones  for  serving  as  an 
efficient  Copy  Editor,  Business  Manager,  advi- 
sor, "administrative  assistant,"  and  wonderful 
roommate;  and  Pat  Arnzen  for  her  mind-bog- 
gling layouts  and  constant  devotion  to  the 
cause. 

Special  thanks  are  extended  to  Dan  Troy, 
our  smiling  representative  from  Josten's;  to 
Phil  Houston  for  his  excellent  photography  and 
unending  supply  of  frat  jokes;  and,  finally,  to 
my  parents  and  Bill  for  their  continuous  en- 
couragement throughout  the  past  year.
