"But what of his work? Shall it end with his death or shall it continue?
I ask you the question. You know it is sometimes said that the youngest
child is the most loved of all. Union College was the last and youngest
of all his works; and so, we think the dearest to his heart. What shall be
its history? Shall it be dear to us because loved by him? Let me answer
the question for you, for I think I know your minds in this matter. I say
no, it shall not die; it shall live and shall continue to grow and shall
add luster to his name."
J.P.Faulkner, "Memorial Address" about Presi-
dent Daniel Stevenson

In 1879, thirty-five local Barbourvillians purchased 20,000 of capital stock to provide funds for the
founding of a college. This was done at the urging of Mr. Abraham H. Harritt, a school desk salesman and
Mr. James T. Gibson, a local dry goods merchant. The formal opening was held over Mr. Gibson's store,
now the Western Auto Associate Store. Judge James D. Black, who would later become the College's
fifth president and a Kentucky Governor, gave the opening address. It was he who named the college
"Union" with the hope that it would serve as a unifying force in the Barbourville community, regardless
of religious or political beliefs. It was in a room above this store also that the first classes were held until a
suitable building could be erected. In October 1886, the College became affiliated with the Kentucky
Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church through the foresight of Daniel Stevenson, a well known
educator of the period.

The first Administration Building was erected in
1880. In 1905 fire destoyed this building and
it was replaced by the new Classroom building.
The Classroom Building? with its gracious tower,
was erected in 1907. It is now on the National
Register of Historic Buildings and is undergoing
extensive renovation. This is a strong contrast
to when the classes were held in James T. Gib-
son's store back in 1870-1880.

Fanny Speed of Louisville,
Kentucky, wanted the girls
who attended Union College
to live in a warm, home- like
atmosphere. With this in
mind, Speed Hall was built
in 1905 with no expenses
spared to insure the girls '
comfort.

Pictured at the Centennial Banquet is the 197& recipients
of the Colonel Harland Sanders Honor Scholarship. To Colo-
nel Sanders and many others, Union College owes an im-
mense debt of gratitude. Through the scholarships and oth-
er gifts offered by these wonderful people, count less stu-
dents have been able to complete their education who
might otherwise have been unable tc> attend.
In preparing the Centennial Section, I have discovered much
to be proud of as a member of the Union College Community.
The 100 years history of service of quality Christian Ed-
ucation is an enviable one. I gratefully acknowledge the
help of Mr. Milton Townsend for his guidance and good will
and the special help of Janet Rose.

Union College was founded the year Albert Einstein was born, 1879. Both had obscure,
unpretentious beginnings. Although told as a young student that he would never amount to anything,
Einstein in his lifetime achieved universal acclaim for his insights into the nature of the physical world.
Because of his stature as an intellectual, his voice was heard in high places when he spoke on social issues.
Similarly, although Union is still a small college and is likely to remain such, its humble beginnings
and early failure were hardly an obvious precursor of the college as it is today. It was founded by citizens
of a tiny Eastern Kentucky town and the immediately surrounding rural community who were
determined to provide for the educational needs of local youth. But bankruptcy was not far away and the
college was sold at public auction in 1886. Immediately, however, it began a new under the auspices of
what was then the Methodist Episcopal Church. Now, as this is being written, a group of foreign
graduate students, young educators on leave from their positions in the Ministry of Education and the
public schools of Liberia, are high over the Atlantic ocean, flying back to their African homeland after
earning Masters Degrees at Union College. As the college matured through the years it attained
recognized academic stature, and grew in size and scope to become a respected institution with a
substantial graduate program. Its influence is now felt in distant places, a role that doubtless far exceeds
the exemplary vision of its founders.
Union College has changed dramatically through the years in keeping with the changes in the society
around it. As it moves into Century II, it does so with a continuing commitment to academic quality and
community service, its goals based on Christian principles, Academic integrity and societal needs. Now,
as in the past, Union College seeks to nurture dedication to Christian ideals and sound learning from
which will emerge creative intellectual activity and spiritual qualities that foster breadth of
understanding and the love of all people. While the commitment to academic quality remains
unchanging, the academic program itself changes and can be expected to continue changing. Thes
changes are a necessary response of the college to the expansion of human knowledge and the
modification of the priorities and the needs of society. The challenge is to effectively serve by making the
right changes at the right time.
A Centennial celebration is a time for reflection as well as for anticipation. We need to ponder our
heritage, giving thanks for the contributions of so many. Union's friends have been legion and much
support has been at the level of sacrifice. Others will follow during the years ahead — friends,
benefactors, and those loyal in their labors. Perhaps the greatest support of all will be from someone in
this Centennial graduating class.
It is a privilege and joy to salute the Centennial Class. Many people have worked hard to contribute
to the fulfillment of your educational, religious, and social needs. The faculty and staff are proud of you,
and we hope you have been pleased with us. All graduates and continuing students have our very best
wishes. For my part, I assure you that Union College moves into Century II firmly committed to
continuing as a Christ-directed enabling influence in the lives of rising generations.

IN MEMORIAM
Phillip Saywrayne, a graduate student from Liberia, died on
March 30, 1979. Phillip was widely known throughout the
Barbourville community and on -the Union College campus. He
was a quiet, friendly man who always wore a smile.
Phillip was the author of Anthology of Original Poems,
Poetry and Speeches, Folk Tales of Liberia and a manuscript
entitled Saywrayne on African Culture.
People who were touched even briefly by Phillip Saywrayne' s
friendly, thoughtful presence regret that he has passed so
suddenly from us.

The Lighthouse Singers are a voluntary group of Christian students from various denominations who
visit churches and colleges to sing and share their faith in Jesus Christ.
This year, the Lighthouse Singers were invited all over the state of Kentucky to share their lives with
others. They provided worship through song for some congregation almost every weekend of the school
year. A lot of moaning, groaning and complaining seemed to go on, but every singer braved Rev. Gibson's
driving, the winding hills of Kentucky and the many self-sacrifices to find new meaning in their lives.

This year the Orange and Black had two editors. During the fall semester, Dena Newman headed the
publication and Kathy Giles took over in the spring. The Orange and Black provided students with
articles on events happening in and around the campus community. The articles were written by both
students and faculty members. Artist Charlie Akins and photographer Steve Rose added their talents to
round off the newspaper material.
Pi Upsilon Beta had a good year of fellowship and brotherhood. Although this year was a slow year for
activities, the brotherhood of the organization grew closer together under the leadership of president
Rick Hill, vice-president Earl Grover, secretary Arnie Bradway, treasurer Dave Pease and advisor Larry
Inkster. PUB had a small pledge class of four in the fall semester, but pledges and members all had a
good time and the.size of the fraternity increased by four.
The major spring activity was a slave sale which raised money for a few of PUB's favorite activities,
PARTIES! The end of the year meant the loss of four members due to graduation, but the remaining
members wish their brothers luck and success in future endeavors.

SIGMA CHI
Sigma Chi Delta is a social and service organization open to all girls
through a two week pledge period. The main goal of the organization is to
promote unity and sisterhood within the sorority and to spread that feel
-ing throughout the campus with their projects.
Sigma Chi Delta celebrated her first birthday this spring with 15 mem —
bers. The girls were quite busy this year sponsoring dances, bakesales ,
hot dog sales, and an ice cream social. The girls also helped with the
Special Olympics, served at the Homecoming Banquet, placed second in the
Centennial Exhibit Contest, had two pledge classes, held a worker-for-a-
day sale and bought their first jackets.
This active group was sponsored by Gayna Akillian and Dick Glasser.

S.N.E.A. - Alive and WeU at Union
This year the student National Education Association of Union College participated in many campus
functions as well as in state association events.
On Campus, S.N.E.A. held monthly meetings at which speakers from on and off campus discussed issues
that are facing the educators of today. The organization also participated in functions that had a special
emphasis on education such as a special chapel service for education majors that was conducted by
S.N.E.A. And the group helped host the Upper Cumberland Valley Teacher's Associational Conference.
At Honor's Day S.N.E.A. presented an award to a senior member that had exhibited a true dedication
toward education. Off campus, the Union College Chapter of S.N.E.A. participated in state association
events such as the Fall Leadership Conference, the State Convention, and meetings of both the state
Executive Committee and the State Task Force Committee. All in all S.N.E.A. at Union College is alive
and well and is expecting another great year of activities!

the week prior to the dance. When the counting was complete, Sigma Chi Delta representatives Brad
Thompson and Emmy Taylor emerged as victors. The other candidates were Becky Houghton and Aaron
Works representing Phi Mu Alpha, Melissa Boswell and Mike Brothers for Circle K, Rita Bryan and Don
Jones for Eta Pi Sigma, and Dena Newman and Bob Beck representing the Orange and Black.
MOB
Mu Omega Beta, sponsored by Dr. Lester Woody, is a social fraternity dedicated to life-long friendship,
brotherhood and service to the community. The members of MOB helped with the activities at Parents'
Weekend and participated in the Daniel Boone Festival. As a money-raising project in order to buy new
shirts, and also as a campus and community service, MOB members sold ads which were printed on desk
blotters. The desk blotters were given away throughout the campus and the community. The members of
MOB also sponsored several parties and dances for their fellow students, plus a few private parties!

as a Christmas party and Easter party for the children of
the Pentecostal Children's Home and a Walk-a-thon for
Cystic Fibrosis. They also contrbuted to campus enhance-
ment by painting lines on the DAC parking lot.

The main activity sponsored by Playlikers was a night full of
"gambling and drink" called Monte Carlo Night. No real money
was used, but the gambler in all of us was brought out as we
attempted to win as much as possible! Refreshments were de -
voured and a disco dance, put on by Union's own Ron Harrison
added color to the evening.
The small crew of workers, who were headed by Allan Green, had
almost more than they could handle. However, at the end of
the evening the completely exhausted crew had another success-
ful Monte Carlo Night to their credit.

FROM THE COACHES
COACH POOLE:
The women's volleyball team, beset with youth and inexperience, managed
only a 1-10 record during the fall.
First-year coach Anjela Poole says that "Volleyball requires that the
six players on the court must know and fullfill their responsibilities.
We lacked this ability because the players are young and have not play-
ed together before."
Coach Poole was impressed with beginning players Teresa Guth, Isabelle
Spriggs , Lori Rodriguez and Sandy Hall who she said were "willing to hit
the floor and get the ball. "Senior Barb Fleming was cited as the team's
best spiker by Coach Poole. She will be the only member of the 1978-79
team not returning.
An experienced squad will return to the volleyball court in the fall in
an attempt to better last season's record.
Like the women's volleyball team, the basketball team, also coached
by Aniela Poole, is losing only one senior. That senior is the same
one that the volleyball team will be missing, Barb Fleming.
The 1978-79 team finished at 8-10 despite youth and inexperience
Coach Poole said that the team relied on quickness and excellent
outside shooting to win those eight games.
Coach Poole added that things look great for next year because of
the large number of returning players and the fact that the new
players this year responded well to inheriting leadership from the
veterns.
COACH MOORE
Union College basketball fans will have an interesting team to watch next season because the 1978-
79 squad lost no players to graduation. In fact, only one player, Durkee Davidson, will be a senior.
The last squad posted a 9-19 record which Coach Pete Moore felt could have been improved upon
with better defense. "Inexperience was the key factor in the weakness of our defensive game," he said.
Coach Moore was especially pleased with the Bulldogs' offensive output of 80 points a game. He
credits accurate shooting as the reason Union is such a high-scoring team.
Overall, Coach Moore feels that rebounding is where Union improved most over the season. "We
began to work together as a team under the boards as the season progressed," he said.
Forward Durkee Davidson was named a member of the All-KIAC team and the All-NAIA District
32 team.
The Bulldogs made a long winter trip to Salina, Kansas, in January to play in the Marymount-
McDonald Classic. Union emerged from the round-robin tourney with a 1-2 record.
Coach Moore is confident that the coming year will be as successful as possible with a still-young
team. "We must improve our defense considerably before we will do much better," he says. "We should
begin the year with more confidence since the team has played a full year together."
Coach Moore hopes that Union will be able to dominate some games while relying on the potent
offense. "I think we will continue to score well and I hope that our rebounding will improve to where we
can dominate a few teams."
COACH BOGGS
Although the tennis team had a number of experienced players in its ranks, the squad was not able to win
a match all year against the tough competition in the conference and in the districts. First-year coach
Sharon Boggs, a Barbourville resident, took over a team that was counting on three seniors. Charlie
Yazell, Mike Goss, and Ron Harrison, one-two-three on the team respective were not able to yield the
kind of year expected of them. The most successful of the three was Yazell, winning two singles matches
and one doubles match over the year.
COACH RAQUET
The internationally popular sport of soccer has been recognized as a varsity sport at Union College,
but the school's players have been practicing and playing patiently for quite a while in anticipation of the
moment.
Ed Raquet, who worked for Union in the computer science department before leaving the campus
during the spring, coached the soccer team through its last season as a "club" sport in the fall. It was the
best season to date for the Bulldogs, who posted a 2-6-1 won-loss-tie record.
Coach Raquet noted that the team's strength lies in determination, enthusiasm and hustle. "The
defense had periods of greatness," he said. "However, as with most young and inexperienced teams, we
had trouble generating any offense."
The high point of the season for the Bulldogs was a crafty 2-1 victory over Georgetown that saw
Union put together a strong defensive and offensive game. "With every game we seemed to improve and
develop better ballhandling skills," Coach Raquet stated. "We were able to put it all together at
Georgetown."
The Union squad is a member of the Kentucky Intercollegiate Soccer Association. At the 9th
Annual KISA tournament late in the fall at Berea College, the Bulldogs were beaten twice. The Western
Kentucky Hilltoppers topped Union 5-0 in the first round. The Cumberland College Indians, victims of
the Bulldogs earlier in the season, won the consolation round over the Union team 3-2.
All-KISA fullback David Pease of Summit, New Jersey, and All-KISA halfback Tom "J.C." Lawson
were the strongholds of the team. Lawson and halfback Ron Harrison of Englishtown, New Jersey, are
lost to the team due to graduation.
Fullback Carl Castell, Bloomfield, Kentucky, forward Basaam Tabeekh, Tehran, Iran, and halfback
Andy Woodward of Lexington, Kentucky, will not be on next year's team because they are transferring.
Coach Raquet feels that the prospects are good for next year when Larry Inkster, instructor of
physical education and Union's championship baseball team coach, will take over the helm. Dr. Judi
Jennings, instructor of history at Union, organized the team for practice games in the spring.
Coach Raquet says that special thanks should be given Dr. Jean Shelton of Dallas, Texas, the
founder and patron of the team. Without her support, soccer could not have existed as a club sport on the
Union College campus.

Five candidates were nominated for the Athlete of the Year Award at the annual Union College
Sports Banquet held at Dishman Springs Monday, May 14, with Henry Wayne Steele, Lexington,
winning the top honors.
Steele a member of the Union College baseball team for four years and has had a batting average
over 300 for each season, Larry Inkster, the baseball coach, called Steele a strong defensive player who in
the catcher position made him a leader of the team. The winner has led the team in hitting for two
consecutive years.
The winner of the Danny Drinkard Award which is given to the runner-up for the nomination, went
to Barbara Fleming of Sergeantsville, N. J., for her participation on this year's volleyball team. "A Union
College senior, Miss Fleming was the outstanding spiker and most accurate server this season," Anjela
Kay Poole, women's athletic coach, stated.
The other nominees included Durkee Davidson, Louisville, Ky., who was co-captain of the Bulldogs
this past season. Davidson was selected to the ALL-KIAC team, the ALL-NAIA District 32 team, and
was selected in March to play for the District 32 team, and was selected in March to play for the District
32 All-Stars against the Mexican National Team, in Berea, Kentucky. Sandy Hale, Lebanon, Ohio, was
listed as the women's basketball nominee. She played as a 5-6 guard freshman. Miss Poole called Miss
Hale a person "who can play either guard or forward positions. The fifth nominee was Chrrles Yazeel,
number one tennis player from Paris, Kentucky. Yazell who is a senior, has had four years of varsity
action with the Union team.
Tennis Coach Sharon Boggs called Yazell "a senior whose leadership qualities have been an
inspiration to the entire team. He is a dedicated player.
Union College Athletic Director Dr. Pete Moore presided at the banquet with the coaches of the
varsity sports making the presentations. These included Larry Inkster, baseball; Mike Goss substituting
for Sharon Boggs for tennis; Anjela Kay Poole, women's basketball and volleyball; and Dr. Pete Moore,
basketball. Miss Frances Patridge, Chairman of the Division of Applied Sciences, read the
recommendations for the top sports honor at Union College.
There is a long history of sports here at Union.
We thought you would like to look back on some
of those moments so we dug up some old shots for
you to look at.

Steven Rose has always complained
that because he has always been
the yearbook photographer, he has
never had his own picture in any
of the previous annuals. We would
like to change that by dedicating
this entire page to Steve in ap-
preciation for all his efforts
for the Stespean.

Editor's Comments
There are many people who deserve credit for the publication
of thes 1979 Stespean. First of all thanks go to President
There are many people who deserve credit for the publication
of this 1979 Stespean. First of all thanks go to President Mil-
ler for his support. Also thanks go to Mr. Milt Townsend who
donated his time and his files of negatives for our use. Thanks
go to Mary Alice Lay for her contribution of editing the Home-
coming section and the Alumni Centerfold. Also Thanks go to Dr.
Jan Finkel for his help. To our advisor, Mrs. Saddler and Becky
Culp. Thanks go to my assistant editors, Janet Rose and Steven
Rose. The Section editors were, Donna Dobo and Dave Ditillio ,
Sports jSherrie Hurst, Students; Rita Bryan, Cenntenial Section .
Thanks go out to all of those who sold the yearbooks especial-
ly Pat Broadbeck.To my photographer, who turned into a dark-
room technician, Bob Malone. But I would like to extend a very
special thank you to Donna Dobo because she helped me more
than any other single person. Thanks Mom. One last thought, it
seems like this staff is big. But however big it seems, we never
have enough help. The editors of any publication never have e-
nough help. So if the yearbook dosen't seem good enough for you
than get involved, work on the next one.
Steven Marshall
P.S. Thanks to Mike Goss Editor
