Picture  perfect  with  the  gothic  buildings  -but  there's 
so  much  more  -you've  got  to  take  a  closer  look  - 
Through  the  Ix)oking  Glass  is  one  wav  to  discover. 


New  horizons.  Oglethorpe's  bell  tower  helps  to  give  the  school  Its  special  gothic  look, 
but  it  also  has  beauty  in  the  bells  sound:  they  ring  at  every  quarter  hour  and  at  the  top 
of  the  hour  there's  a  special  melody  that  it  plays.  Shelly  Watts  and  Mona  Lisa  Hudda  get 
a  different  perspective  of  the  campus  when  they  view  it  from  the  top  of  Lupton  Hall. 


The  Right  Combination.  One  of  the 

unique  qualities  of  a  small  school  is  that 
your  professors  can  personally  help  you  if 
you  have  any  problems  with  their  class 
assignments.  Here,  Dr.  Bruce  Hethering- 
ton.  professor  of  economics,  shows  Mack 
McDaniel  how  to  solve  the  problem  cor- 
rectly.

Focusing 

In 

A  story  book  about  the  92  school  year. 

Stuffed  with  pictures  of  friends  and  lovers. 
Ten  years  from  now  you'll  read  it  cover  to  cover 
Bringing  back  memories,  you'll  cherish  forever 

From  the  school  you  once  lived  so  near. 


Each  school  year  begins  as  an  adventure 

With  everyone  having  their  own  expectations 
And  even  though  studying  took  some  perspiration 
U  could  let  loose  by  what's  known  as  fraternization 

But  when  "exam  blues"  came  there  seemed  to  be  no  cure. 


In  Wonderland  there  were  so  many  great  things  to  do, 

-  a  Chi  Phi  Halloween  jam 

-  a  dorm  room  beer  slam 

-  or  an  APO  helping  hand. 
Students  had  a  hard  choice  to  choose. 


But,  whatever  our  weekends  had  in  store, 
on  Monday,  we  all  had  the  same  fate 
Class.  And  for  some,  that  meant  being  late 
"For  a  very  important  date!!" 

Just  like  the  White  Rabbit  said  before.

Sittin'  Pretty.  Kathy  Lea  and  her  friend  Gwendellon  Gwen 
have  found  a  nice  sunny  place  to  study  together. 


Right  before  her  eyes.  At  the  APO  induction.  Kent  McKay 
taltes  a  closer  look  at  unsuspecting  pledge.  Heather  Champion. 
Becky  Carter  also  pledged  during  the  fall  semester. 


Think 
about  it. . . 

In  the  fall,  OU  began  to  expand  its  gothic  look. 

The  library  expanded  at  such  an  alarming  rate. 

And  all  the  banging  could  make  a  person  irate! 

Where  ever  you  sat,  it  was  impossible  to  concentrate  Nonethe- 
less, they  gave  you  earplugs  to  read  your  book. 


For  sports,  the  year  was  absolutely  great! 

After  13  years,  baseball  returned  to  the  scene 
Basketball  expanded  to  include  women,  how  keen 
And  the  Braves  almost  won  the  World  Series,  but  it 
went  to  the  other  team. 

Next  year,  you'll  have  no  excuse  to  not  participate. 


The  year  was  one  of  remembrance  downtown  and  at  school 
The  core  was  changed  to  be  more  diverse 
Ted  Turner  was  named  "Man  of  the  Year"  (or  universe) 
And  the  hike  in  tuition  took  more  out  of  your  purse. 

The  "Journal"  covered  it  aU,  even  the  ridicule. 


World  problems  made  92  a  year  of  international  relation 

-  Warfare  in  the  Gulf  was  on  the  decrease 

-  The  Soviet  Union  saw  communisms'  release 

-  And  everyone  just  kept  hoping  for  World  Peace. 
Thus  the  graduates  stepped  into  this  world  full  of 

anticipation.

to  fulfill  and  parties  to  attend 
our  lives  seemed  to  never  end. 

Chapter  One 

Coming  back  to  school  meant  having  a  "students  life." 
The  year  was  scheduled  almost  to  the  top. 
Casino  night  started  it  off,  not  w/a  bang  but  a  pop 
&  Halloween  was  a  treat,  but  nobody  drank  soda-pop! 

Amazingly,  throughout  the  year,  there  was  hardly  any 
strife. 

The  vibrant  time  of  Fall  brought  vacation  &  fun  for  all 
Parents  got  a  taste  of  OU  on  a  special  "weekender" 
We  all  marveled  in  the  Night  of  the  Arts  splendor  & 
Boars  Head  ended  the  year  while  we  were  all  slender 

Christmas  break  helped  get  us  ready  for  the  spring 
semester  haul. 

The  flowers  of  Springtime  brought  lots  of  good  cheer. 
Homecoming  helped  bring  back  some  Petrel  pep. 
While  Mardi  Gras  gave  parties  a  whole  new  concept 
&  With  great  expectations.  Spring  Fest  student  slept 

Sunny  days  of  Spring  brought  inspiration  to  the  year. 

The  end  of  the  semester  brought  to  some,  great  stress. 
Midnight  Breakfast  helped  to  relieve  exam  pressure 
But  you  knew  you  were  in  trouble  when  math  problems 

looked  like  M.  C.  Escher. 
For  some,  graduation  was  near  and  definitely  a 
refresher. 
The  year  wasn't  so  bad  after  all,  we  must  confess!

Dude!  It  was  like,  a  total  life 
changing  experience!  It  was  so 
awesome  -  you  know  -  like,  a 
most  excellent  vacation!  I  can't 
wait  to  go  tripping  around  the 
world  again. 

In  the  movies.  Bill  and  Ted 
time-warped  around  the  world  to 
learn  about  history  for  their  high 
school  exam.  But  in  real  life,  sev- 
eral OU  students  also  traveled 
around  the  world  last  summer. 
They  too  were  looking  for  knowl- 
edge. 

Patrick  Grey  volunteered  in 
Dumay,  Haiti,  for  one  week  in 
May;  to  help  out  with  a  medical 
missionary  expedition,  called 
"Adopt  A  Village".  The  program 
goes  to  the  same  village  2  or  3 
times  a  year,  bringing  medical 
supplies  and  nutrition  informa- 
tion. One  of  the  programs  goal  is 
to  help  keep  1  generation  of 
Hatians  healthy;  so  they  can  start 
to  help  themselves.

Helping  Hand.  Because  Patrick  knew 
French,  he  was  able  to  talk  with  some 
Hatlan  boys,  even  though  they  spoke  a 
Creole  dialect. 


Along  With  the  other  13  volun- 
teers, Patrick  helped  about  600 
patients  over  a  3  day  period, 
mostly  unloading  supplies  and 
helping  patients  while  they  wait- 
ed. His  impression  of  Hatians 
was:"They  were  shy  at  first,  but  to 
be  in  such  poverty,  they're  really 
friendly.  I  know  some  French,  so 
it  was  neat  to  talk  to  them." 

Because  of  his  experience, 
Patrick  now  has  a  different  out- 
look on  life  and  has  realized;  "that 
you  can  really  get  by  on  a  lot 
less." 

Omlya,  Japan  became  the  tem- 
porary school  and  home  of  5 
Oglethorpe  students  for  4  V2  weeks 
last  summer.  Craig  Panter,  Stasi 
Bara,  Adrian  Percival,  Nash 
Gussman,  and  Irene  Sorteres 
were  the  participating  students 
who,  ironically  knew  very  little 
Japanese  -  But  that  was  one  of 
the  reasons  they  went  —  to  learn.

Picture  Perfect.  During  their  summer  holiday,  the  exchange 
students  learned  part  the  Japanese  language  and  a  lot  about 
the  Japanese  culture.  They  traveled  to  different  monuments  and 
shrines  like  this  one  in  Kamakura.  Craig  Panter  and  Stasi  Bara 
stayed  for  another  month  after  school  ended  and  traveled 
because  of  their  interest  in  Japan.

ensuous  experience 


The  sights,  sounds,  and  tastes 
of  International  night  gave  the 
evening  a  texture  of  intriguing 
diversity.  Sponsored  by  the  Inter- 
national Club,  this  annual  event 
was  held  September  28  at  7pm  in 
the  Emerson  Student  Center.  The 
event  included  a  reception,  din- 
ner, and  entertainment  to  cele- 
brate cultures  from  all  over  the 
world. 

At  the  reception,  information 
tables  displayed  photographs  and 
cultural  items  from  the  various 
nations.  The  pictures,  toys, 
clothes,  and  weapons  introduced 
the  guests  to  foreign  places  and 
traditions. 

The  dinner  allowed  the  guests 
to  sample  popular  native  dishes 
from  almost  every  continent. 
Among  some  of  the  favorites  were 
Chinese  egg  rolls  and  a  Filipino 
dish  of  noodles  and  vegetables 
called  Pancit.

student  Kotaro  Tanaka  treated 
the  audience  to  Rock  n'  Roll 
Japanese  style.  Many  dances 
were  also  performed.  An  African 
dance  and  several  Japanese 
dances  delighted  the  audience  not 
only  because  of  the  outstanding 
dances  themselves,  but  also 
because  of  the  colorful,  traditional 
costumes  of  those  countries.  A 
group  from  the  Philippines 
demonstrated  a  dance  typically 
done  by  peasant  farmers  to  cele- 
brate the  harvest.  This  dance  was 
unique  in  that  it  is  performed  by 
jumping  between  two  long  bam-

together  imitating  the  sounds  of 
the  crows.

s 


On  the  eve  of  All  Saints  Day.  a 
mysterious  aura  surrounded  the 
Oglethorpe  campus.  The  wet.  vel- 
vet night  was  silent  except  for  the 
lonely  call  of  the  owl.  Then,  in 
strange  groups  they  emerged. 
Oddly  clad  students  deserted 
their  lodgings  and  tromped  into 
the  night  only  half  aware  of  what 
this  evening  held  in  store. 

Some  students  traveled  to  the 
annual  Chi  Phi  Halloween  Party. 
Although  the  sounds  of  laughter 
were  heard,  the  potions  of  which 
they  partook  left  them  with  a  lack 
of  memory  at  dawn.  To  solve  this 
mystery,  these  students  vowed  to 
return  next  year  in  a  better  dis- 
guise.

gather  together  to  benefit  the 
homeless.  The  brothers  of  Alpha 
Phi  Omega  encouraged  each  other 
to  conceal  their  true  identity  with 
clever  costumes.  They  then  per- 
formed the  traditional  ritual  of

and  Slash  (alias  Jimmy  Campbell  and 
Tom  Brambly)  make  a  surprise  appear- 
ance at  the  annual  Chi  Phi  Halloween 
Party. 


Starting  a  new  tradition.  The  former 
"Fall  Jam"  was  changed  to  the  improved 
"Halloween  Jam."  Although  afternoon 
activities  were  in  Traer.  a  Halloween 
Dance  was  held  at  Emerson  that  night. 


'Trick-or  treat"  upon  residents  of 
the  surrounding  community.  The 
brothers  collected  food  and  cloth- 
ing to  give  to  the  homeless  once 
daylight  brought  safety. 

To  add  to  the  evenings  secret 
excitement,  a  Halloween  Jam  was 
held  in  Traer.  Students  seemed 
normal  as  they  ate  and  played 
volleyball  among  other  activities. 

Later  that  night  these  same 
students  donned  freakish  clothes 
to  compete  for  the  best  costume 
award  at  the  Halloween  Dance  in 
the  student  center.  They  also  par- 
ticipated in  such  Halloween  tradi- 
tions as  bobbing  for  apples. 

Prior  to  these  odd  happenings, 
small  gouls,  goblins,  and  ninja 
turtles  invaded  the  women's  dorm 
Traer  to  collect  candy.  The  event, 
sponsored  by  Rotoract,  gave 
neighborhood  children  the  chance 
to  get  a  sugar  high  before  the  set- 
ting of  the  sun.

If  one  were  to  chance  upon  the 
Emerson  Student  Center  Satur- 
day night,  November  16,  he  might 
have  thought  he  had  stepped 
through  a  mirror  into  an  alternate 
reality.  Poker  chips  were  being 
shrewdly  placed  amidst  the  con- 
trast of  smiles  and  grimaces.  One 
could  also  hear  the  concert  of 
people  winning  and  losing.  At  first 
glance,  one  might  have  thought 
that  people  were  betting  their 
lives!  However,  once  inside,  it  was 
obvious  this  sight  was  not  a  hal- 
lucination; it  was  Casino  Night  at 
Oglethorpe. 

The  people  were  not  betting 
their  lives,  not  even  real  money! 
They  were  just  caught  up  in  the 
spirit  of  chance.  The  purpose  was 
to  gamble  the  $20,000  given  to 
each  student  in  order  to  make 
money  to  exchange  for  raffle  tick-

with  the  idea.  The  committee 
hired  the  casino  company,  pro-

Dancers  approached  Cliff  with  the 
idea  of  performing  a  show  girl-ish

Although  it  was  exam  Ume,  and 
few  students  had  gone  shopping, 
OU  officially  began  the  holiday 
season  with  the  Boar's  Head  Cere- 
mony in  Lupton  Auditorium  on 
December  6.  As  tradition  has  dic- 
tated, this  ceremony  included  the 
presentation  of  the  new  members 
of  Omicron  Delta  Kappa,  the 
annual  Christmas  concert  by  the 
University  Singers,  and  the  light- 
ing of  the  campus  Christmas  tree. 

ODK,  a  national  fraternity  for 
students  and  faculty  who  demon-

danced  in  costume. 

The  evening  ended  with  the 
lighting  of  the  Christmas  tree  on

For  many  Oglethorpe  students 
and  faculty  members,  the  Night  of 
the  Arts  was  a  special  opportunity 
to  share  their  creative  talents.  In 
the  Great  Hall  of  Lupton  Hall, 
this  annual  program,  sponsored 
by  the  English  Club  and  hosted 
by  Troy  Dwyer,  featured  musical 
performances,  readings  of  both 
fictional  prose  and  poetry,  draw- 
ings, paintings,  and  photographs. 

Both  vocal  and  instrumental 
performances  were  given  this 
year.  Knox  Burnette  played 
"Autumn"  on  the  guitar,  whereas 
Scott  Lutz  played  an  original 
piano  piece  "Out  of  Autumn,"  and 
Professor  Robert  Blumenthal 
played  Schubert's  "Twelve 
Waltzes"  on  piano  in  addition  to 
accompanying  many  vocal  per- 
formers. DeShawn  Jenkins, 
David  Ross,  and  Sheri  Studley 
were  the  evenings  singers.

the  family 


Parents  Weekend  was  filled 
with  family  fun.  This  special 
weekend  is  reserved  every  fall  to 
give  parents  the  opportunity  to 
spend  time  with  their  children 
while  learning  more  about 
Oglethorpe  University  and  the 
lives  the  students  live  day  to  day. 

Organized  by  the  Community 
Life  office,  the  weekend  features 
several  events  aimed  at  allowing 
parents  to  see  what  life  at  OU  is 
really  about.  During  the  afternoon 
of  Saturday,  parents  attended 
OPU  (Oglethorpe  Parents  Univer- 
sity), where  they  listen  and  partic- 
ipate in  actual  lecture  classes 
given  by  the  university's  profes- 
sors. First,  however,  parents 
must  go  through  an  activity  that 
simulates  registration  while 
selecting  the  classes  they  would 
like  to  attend. 

The  late  afternoon  was  set 
aside  for  families  to  spend  some

private  time  together  and  explore 
the  many  things  the  city  of 
Atlanta  has  to  offer.  Whether  it  be 
shopping  at  I^enox  Mall  or  going 
to  Underground  Atlanta,  there 
was  always  plenty  to  do! 

A  family  picnic  was  planned  for 
the  early  evening,  coinciding  with 
a  women's  soccer  team  game. 
Here  students  and  their  families 
as  well  as  faculty  and  staff  mem- 
bers enjoyed  a  cook  it  yourself 
cookout  with  hamburgers  and  hot 
dogs  pro\aded  by  Service  America. 
Some  families  joined  in  a  game  of 
volleyball  In  the  sand  court  of  the 
upper  quad  where  the  picnic  was 
held. 

The  President  and  his  wife  also 
held  a  reception  at  their  home  on 
Saturday  afternoon.  Fortunately, 
they  strategically  placed  several 
tv's  so  that  people  could  watch 
the  Braves'  game  that  afternoon.

The  1991  World  Series  was 
perhaps  the  most  exciting  in 
the  history  of  baseball.  The 
Minnesota  Twins  squeezed 
past  the  Atlanta  Braves  1-0  on 
a  pinch-hit  single  in  the  bot- 
tom of  the  10th  inning  to  win 
Game  7  and  end  baseball's 
most  dramatic  adventure. 
Never  had  three  Series  games 
gone  into  extra  innings.  More- 
over, the  two  teams  held  the 
suspense  until  the  very  end. 
matching  zero  for  zero,  pitch 
for  pitch,  and  even  turning 
back  bases  loaded  threats  in 
the  same  inning  in  Game  7. 
Although  the  Twins  won  the 
Series,  to  the  people  of  Atlanta. 
the  Braves  symbolized  victor^' 
itself. 


Magic  Johnson,  whose 
beaming  smile  and  sparkling 
play  entertained  basketball 
fans  for  more  than  a 
decade,  announced  Novem- 
ber 7  that  he  had  tested  posi- 
tive for  the  AIDS  virus  and  was 
retiring  from  professional  bas- 
ketball. At  the  Forum,  where 
he  played  for  twelve  superstar 
seasons  with  the  Los  Angeles 
Lakers,  Johnson  told 
reporters,  "Because  of  the  HIV 
virus  I  have  attained,  I  will 
have  to  announce  my  retire- 
ment from  the  Lakers  today." 

However,  Johnson  stated,  "I 


plan  on  going  on,  living  for  a 
long  time."  He  added  that  he 
would  become  an  AIDS  activist 
and  that  he  would  begin  a 
campaign  for  safe  sex. 

More  than  just  a  basketball 
star  who  led  the  Los  Angeles 
Lakers  to  five  NBA  champi- 
onships, Johnson  has  been  a 
prominent  corporate  spokes 
person  and  a  role  model  for 
young  people  everywhere.  His 
familiar  nickname  and  stun- 
ning athletic  ability  have  made 
him  popular  among  people  all 
over  the  world.

Forty-three  year  old 
Clarence  Thomas  grew  up 
poor,  black  and  Democratic  in 
Pinpoint,  Georgia.  Later,  he 
switched  political  parties  and 
became  a  controversial  symbol 
of  Black  conservatism.  After 
President  George  Bush 
announced  his  nomination  to 
the  Supreme  Court,  Thomas 
observed,  "Only  in  America." 


In  addition  to  the  controver- 
sy over  Thomas's  legal  views,  a 
charge  of  sexual  harassment 
was  brought  against  iiini  by 
law  professor  Anita  Hill. 
Thomas  vehemently  denied  the 
allegations  during  several  days 
of  special  televised  senate 
hearings  concerning  the  issue. 

After  much  debate,  the 
United  States  Senate  voted  by 


a  narrow  margin  to  confirm 
him.  On  October  18.  Clarence 
Thomas  became  the  106th 
United  States  Supreme  Court 
Justice.  He  succeed  Thurgood

years  on  the  bench,  to  become

Members  of  the  coup  sent

"Well,  if  you're  traveling  north 
on  the  285  perimeter,  watch  out! 
There  seems  to  be  an  accident 
this  morning  that  is  causing  traf- 
fic to  slow  down  around  the 
Peachtree  exit  number  23.  And 
for  those  of  you  rushing  to  work 
and  plan  to  travel  on  185.  you  can 
take  your  time  too.  1  think  every- 
one in  Atlanta  taking  that  high- 
way left  late.  It  is  backed  up  for 
miles  in  both  directions!"  These 
words  echoing  from  the  radio  traf- 
fic report  are  probably  a  com- 
muters worst  nightmare.  Howev- 
er, it  rarely  gets  that  bad  going  to 
Oglethorpe. 

Perhaps  surprisingly  to  some 
students,  the  university  has  quite 
a  large  number  of  full  time  com- 
muter students.  In  fact,  the  Reg- 
istrar's Office  estimates  that  682 
people  who  attend  Oglethorpe  do 
not  live  on  campus.  Many  of  these 
students  live  in  nearby  apartment 

Is  there  no  such  thing  as  a  free 
lunch?  Every  first  Wednesday  of  each 
month,  commuters  are  invited  to  a  free 
luncheon.  While  they  eat,  they  have  the 
opportunity  to  converse  with  their  profes-

ford  Plantation,  or  Lakeside  Vil- 
las. Interestingly,  a  few  of  these 
students,  such  as  Lee  McGraw, 
ride  their  bicycles  to  campus. 
Most  commuters,  however,  drive 
to  the  university. 

Given  that  Oglethorpe  does 
have  such  a  large  number  of  com- 
muters who  drive  and  that  many 
of  the  students  who  live  on  cam- 
pus insist  on  driving  to  Hearst  or 
Lupton  from  the  upper  quad, 
parking  had  been  the  major  con- 
cern for  commuters.  Fortunately, 
John  Thames,  Dean  of  Continu-

administration  to  transform  the 
abandoned  tennis  courts  behind 
Goodman  Hall  into  additional 
parking  space  in  time  for  the

A  fabulous  Petrel  basketball 
triumph,  a  huge  party,  free  t- 
shirts,  and  two  great  bands  — 
what  do  all  of  these  have  in  com- 
mon? Well,  any  student  knows 
that  when  you  combine  all  of 
these  things  in  one  weekend  you 
get  the  formula  for  one  incredible 
Homecoming. 

Unlike  previous  years,  the 
Homecoming  dance  was  held  on 
the  Friday  night  before  the  bas- 
ketball game.  However,  students 
were  just  as  pumped  as  they 
danced  the  night  away  at  the 
Holiday  Inn  downtown.  One  of  the 
principle  organizers  of  the  event. 
Bo  Pamplin  noted  that  "the  free 
beer  and  wine  didn't  hurt  spirits 
any."  Anyone  could  have  seen  this 
fact  as  they  gazed  across  the 
crowded  dance  floor.  Barbaree 
Church,  the  band  that  also 
played  at  last  years  Homecoming 
Dance,  played  some  covers  as 
well  as  performing  a  few  of  their

original  songs.  Also,  some  stu- 
dents requested  some  DJ 
favorites.  Either  way.  everyone 
seemed  to  be  having  a  fanlaslic 
evening! 

A  few  unstoppable  party  freaks 
even  rose  early  the  following  day 
to  start  tailgating  before  the  big 
game.  They  came  prepared  with 
tarp.  grill,  burgers,  and  the 
works! 

The  OU  Basketball  Team  was 
on  the  rampage  as  they  annihilat- 
ed the  opposing  basketball  team 
from  the  Savannah  College  of  Art 
and  Design.  The  Petrels  soundly 
defeated  them  1  12  to  66. 

The  half-time  program  was 
oddly  entertaining  as  well  as 
suspenseful.  In  an  effort  to  set  up 
the  arch,  through  which  the  can- 
didates for  Homecoming  Queen 
and  King  would  be  presented, 
members  of  OSA  had  a  little 
trouble,  to  say  the  least, 
(cont.  page  29) 

The  candidates.  Among  the  couples 
competing  lor  the  crown  of  Homecoming 
King  and  Queen  were  Heather  Hosko  and 
Mark  Tubesing.  representing  the  LJniversi- 
ty  Singers;  Lisa  Thornton  and  Derek  Witt, 
representing  Delta  Sigma  Phi:  and  Sharon 
Williams  and  Mark  Williams,  representing 
Chi  Omega.

Oglethorpe  Day  has  always 
been  a  time  to  take  a  special  look 
at  the  university--it's  past,  pre- 
sent, and  future.  On  February 
13.  student,  faculty,  and  alumni 
all  shared  in  the  anniversary  cele- 
bration of  Sidney  Lanier's  150th 
birthday.  As  an  important  south- 
ern poet  and  famous  alumnus. 
Lanier's  birthday  festivities 
focused  on  a  personal  perspective 
of  the  history  of  the  university. 

Through  Lanier's  experience  at 
Oglethorpe  (when  it  was  located 
in  Midway  near  Milledge\'ille)  and 
his  life,  the  Oglethorpe  communi- 
ty gained  insight  as  to  what  life  at 
Oglethorpe  was  like  before  and 
during  the  Civil  War  Era.  Particu- 
larly, many  students  were  inter- 
ested in  Lanier's  involvement  in 
the  Thalian  Society,  and  organiza- 
tion still  active  on  campus.  He 
was  the  the  only  sophomore  in

with  a  banner  to  honor  its  tradi-

pring  fest 


So  little  to  do,  so  much  time  — 
scratch  that:  reverse  it.  This 
Springfest  Weekend  was  jammed 
pact  with  activities  for  everyone, 
including  prospectives,  students, 
faculty,  staff,  and  alumni.  In 
addition  to  the  typical  activities 
for  the  prospective  students, 
"Stomp  the  Lawn"  and  Alumni 
Weekend  provided  nonstop  festivi- 
ties all  over  campus. 

Registration  of  prospectives 
began  on  Thursday  afternoon. 
Much  to  the  delight  of  the  Admis- 
sions Office,  so  many  students 
signed  up  to  house  these  prospec- 
tives that  not  only  did  everyone 
have  a  place  to  stay,  but  some 
OU  students  were  disappointed 
by  not  getting  to  have  a  prospec- 
tive. 

These  prospective  students 
kept  busy  all  weekend.  "Get 
acquainted"  activities  Thursday 
night  helped  many  of  them  to  be

by  APO  provided  them  a  chance 
to  develop  a  relationship  with 
some  present  students.  Sigma 
Alpha  Epsilon.  and  Chi  Phi  also 
threw  parties  during  the  weekend 
to  give  prospectives  a  taste  of  the 
social  life.  On  Saturday,  prospec- 
tives pre-registered  for  the  fall 
and  saw  the  "business"  side  of 
going  to  college. 

Also  on  Saturday,  everyone 
participated  in  the  long  awaited 
"Stomp  the  Lawn."  This  day-long 
party  was  named  by  Chris  Ballar 
and  was  primarily  organized  by 
Stasi  Bara,  Tim  Evans,  and  Rob- 
bie Romiester.  In  addition  to  stu- 
dent Elizabeth  Watts  playing  her 
guitar,  comedian  Wayne  Feder- 
man  and  local  Atlanta  band  Jody 
Grind  entertained  a  rowdy  OU 
audience  in  the  Academic  Quad. 

Alumni  were  also  on  campus 
for  their  annual  weekend  reunion.

"We  won't  go  back!  We 
will  fight  back!"  These 
shouts  rang  through  the 
streets  of  Washington  DC  on 
April  5th  as  at  least  700,000 
people  gathered  to  march  in 
demonstration  for  abortion 
rights.  The  march  fell  during 
the  season  when  campaigns  for 
the  November  3rd  nation-wide 
elections  were  gaining  momen- 
tum. Organizers  hoped  the 
widely  publicized  march  would 
secure  many  Americans'  votes 
for  Pro-choice  candidates  who 
would  not  allow  legalized  abor- 
tion to  be  reversed. 

As  the  mass  of  demonstra- 
tors slowly  approached  the 
capitol,  the  Mall  filled  with 
people  from  all  over  the  coun- 
try dressed  in  mostly  white  and 
purple.  These  colors,  the  same 
ones  worn  by  the  early  20th 
Century  suffragettes,  symbol- 
ized the  importance  of  the 
issue  at  stake.  Both  Democrat- 
ic    hopefuls,     Clinton     and 

Photos  of  Ihe  Presidents  and  Terry  Anderson  were 
provided  by  Wide  World  Photos  of  the  Associated 
Press.  The  photo  of  the  Pro-choice  march  was  given 
courtesy  of  Elizabeth  Watts.  Ms.  Watts  also  con- 
tributed the  article  about  the  march. 


Brown,  spoke  at  the  huge  rally 
that  followed.  President  Bush 
had  retired  to  Camp  David  for 
the  weekend.  Other  speakers 
included  Jesse  Jackson,  Presi- 
dent of  Planned  Parenthood 
Fay  Walker,  and  several  1992 
candidates  for  Congress. 

Several  OU  students  attend- 
ed the  march  and  brought 
back  their  hope  for  continued 
legislation  to  secure  women's 
rights  to  choose.  As  one  of  the 
largest  demonstrations  on  the 
capitol,  this  "March  For 
Women's  Lives"  was  a  step 
toward  that  hope.  (Pictured

Who's  next?  The  1992 
Presidential  elections  heated  up 
this  spring  for  both  Democrats 
and  Republicans. 

Those  seeking  the  Democratic 
nomination  initially  included 
Jerry  Brown,  Bill  Clinton,  Tom 
Harkln,  Bob  Kerrey,  and  Paul 
Tsongas.  As  the  semester 
closed,  however,  Jerry  Brown 
and  Bill  Clinton  were  battling  it 
out  on  the  primary  campaign 


trail.  While  Clinton  was  suffer- 
ing from  an  image  problem  (that 
prompted  Time  to  use  him  as  a 
cover  story  with  the  headline 
"Why  voters  don't  trust  Clin- 
ton"), Jerry  Brown  was  heralded 
by  the  press  as  a  "Political 
Chameleon." 

George  Bush  also  faced  com- 
petition in  his  bid  for  nomina- 
tion. Pat  Buchanan  received  a 
significant  percentage  of  votes  in 


the  state  primaries,  but  these 
"protest  votes"  were  not  enough 
to  keep  him  in  the  running. 
However,  President  Bush  also 
contented  with  H.  Ross  Perot.; 
This  Independently  wealthy 
Texas  businessman  captured  a 
great  deal  of  public  attention  as' 
his  campaign  gained  momen-; 
tum.  '

Welcome  home!  After  6 
and  1/2  years  of  captivity  in 
Lebanon,  Terry  Anderson  was 
released  to  US  officials  on 
December  4.  This  was  the  end 
of  a  brutal  hostage  ordeal  for 
both  himself  and  the  United 
States.  Anderson,  chief  Middle 
East  correspondent  for  the  AP, 
responded  to  the  question  of 


what  kept  him  going  by  saying 
it  was  his  companions,  his 
faith,  and  his  stubbornness. 

He  was  the  longest-held 
Western  hostage  and  personi- 
fied the  long-running  hostage 
ordeal  that  haunted  two  Amer-

was  the  13th  &  last  American 
captive  freed  since  the  Shiite 


extremists  began  in  1984  seiz-

ring  break 


The  one  thing  that  almost  every 
student  looked  forward  to  during 
the  spring  semester  is  spring 
break.  By  mid-day  on  the  Friday 
before  this  week-long  vacation, 
campus  was  dead,  and  students 
were  on  their  way  home.  Savan- 
nah, Florida,  west,  or  where  ever 
they  though  they  could  find  fun 
and  relaxation. 

The  students  who  lived  out  of 
state  used  spring  break  as  a 
chance  to  visit  home.  Whether  it 
was  New  York,  New  Jersey, 
Alabama,  Missouri,  South  Caroli- 
na, or  Florida,  home  sweet  home 
had  a  strong  attraction  for  those 
who  had  not  seen  mom  and  dad 
since  Christmas. 

Fortunately  for  Oglethorpe  stu- 
dents, spring  break  fell  during  the 
week  of  St.  Patrick's  Day.  and 
many  took  the  opportunity  to

US,  the  party  lasted  all  night 
almost  every  day  of  that  week. 

The  "Sunshine  State"  of  Flori-

students.  Although  many  ven- 
tured to  Daytona.  A  group  of  the 
brothers  of  Alpha  Phi  Omega

One  of  the  more  unusual 
spring  break  vacations  was  the 
trip  west  that  Debby  Balmes  and 
Elizabeth  Smith  took.  Along  with 
some  friends,  they  traveled  to  the 
Grand  Canyon. 

No  matter  where  they  went, 
everyone  had  great  stories  to  tell 
about  their  spring  break.  The  only 
compliant  was  that  students 
wished  the  break  was  still  two 
weeks  as  in  years  past.

the  wild  side 


This  was  no  walk  in  the  park; 
it  was  the  first  annual  "Walk  on 
the  Wild  Side!"  Instead  of  the 
usual  "Beach  Bash,"  the  Resi- 
dents' Hall  Council  presented  a 
new  way  to  party  during  the 
spring  semester. 

Many  students  felt  that  the 
"Beach  Bash."  which  had  been 
the  spring  event  for  at  least  the 
last  five  years,  had  become  tire- 
some. So  RHA  members  put  their 
heads  together  and  created  some- 
thing totally  different  —  Walk  on 
the  Wild  Side. 

The  party  was  held  in  the 
Upper  Quad  to  take  advantage  of 
the  sand  volleyball  court  and 
greater  amount  of  space  than 
Traer  had  allowed  for  the  "Beach 
Bash." 

The  afternoon  did  turn  out  to 
be  wild  with  the  strange  activities 
that  kept  the  energy  level  high.

Discriminatory  and 
Harassment  Policy 

Debated.  On  September  17 
an  incident  occured  that 
sparked  months  of  debates, 
discussions,  and  seminars 
about  homosexuality,  harass- 
ment, and  Constitutional 
Rights. 

On  this  date,  during  a  pub- 
licized meeting  of  OGLA  and 
OUTYOUTH,  unidentified  indi- 
viduals ran  by  Shannon  CoUi- 
son's  room,  where  the  meeting 
was  taking  place,  and  shouted 
the  word  "faggots." 

Student  reaction  was  imme- 
diate and  diverse.  The 
Stormy  Petrel  carried  sev- 
eral editorials  concerning  the 
issues.  The  outrage  over  homo- 
sexual slurs  was  related  to  a 
school  harassment  policy 
debate,  which  was  related  to 
the  Constitutionalitv  of  OU's 


policy. 

A  new  fraternity?  Pi 

Kappa  Phi  —  that  was  the 
adopted  greek  name  of  a  group 
of  guys  who  were  determined 
to  diversity  Oglethorpe's  greek 
life. 

For  many  of  these  gentle- 
men, the  present  fraternal 
organizations  were  not  appeal- 
ing. They  wanted  to  form  their 
own  group  not  only  for  them- 
selves, but  also  to  help  the 
greek  system  itself.  According 
the  the  Pi  Kaps.  the  addition  of 
a  new,  fifth  fraternity  would 
revitalize  the  whole  greek  sys- 
tem. 

However,  the  Inter-Fratemi- 
ty  Council  was  less  than  recep- 
tive to  the  idea.  After  much 
debate.  Pi  Kappa  Phi  was  imat- 
ed  to  join  the  IFC  and  become 
an  official  organization  at  the 
end  of  the  spring. 


Getting  to  the  core  of  the  prob- 
lem. "Hie  Core  Covo.  a  series  oi  ses- 
sions addressing  the  newly  proposed 
core  program,  was  held  September  17. 


A  new  Core  Curricu-

tion by  a  special  faculty  com-

dent input  was  sought.  At  the 
"Core  Covo"  on  September  17 
in  the  Emerson  Student  Cen- 
ter, a  series  of  sessions  were 
given  addressing  topics  ranging 
from  the  formation  of  a  Core  to

ummer  graduation  1 992 


Charles  Longstreet  Weltner 
'48  OU  trustee  and  Justice  of 
the  Supreme  Court  of  GA,  gave 
the  address  at  the  August  16. 
1991  graduation  ceremony. 
His  speech  is  as  follows: 

"Before  Va'clav  Havel 
became  Pres.  of  Czechoslo- 
vakia, he  spoke  of  the  power  of 
words.  He  said:  The  selfsame 
word  can  be  true  one  moment 
and  false  the  next,  at  one 
moment  illuminating,  at  anoth- 
er deceptive  ...  The  selfsame 
word  can  at  one  time  be  the 
cornerstone  of  peace,  while  at 
another,  machine  gun  fire 
resounds  in  its  every  syllable. 
The  point  is  all  important 
events  in  the  real  world  — 
whether  admirable  or  mon- 
strous —  are  always  spear- 
headed in  the  realm  of  words. 
In  the  beginning  of  everything 
is  the  word.' 

The  power  of  words  resides 
within  several  realms  where 
words  are  of  first  importance, 
(a)  One  such  realm  is  the  Uni- 
versity. The  resource  of  the 
University  is  words  —  to  pre- 
serve, combine.  &  compare. 
The  process  of  the  Univ  is 
words  —  to  examine,  debate, 
and  assay.  The  product  of  the 
Univ  is  words  —  to  explain, 
instruct,  and  enable.  TTirough 
words,  the  Univ  creates  & 
changes  many  of  the  standards 
of  human  behavior.  Rarely 
does  a  person  in  the  Western 
world  rise  to  a  position  of  influ- 
ence without  being  engaged 
with  the  Univ  &  without 
becoming  an  heir  and  a  con- 
tributor to  some  power  of 
words,  (b)  A  second  realm  of 
the  power  of  words  is  the 
Church  (a  term  used  broadly), 
where  the  very  concept  of 
"word"  is  an  ancient  object  of 
reverence.  John  the  Evangelist 
began  his  gospel:  "In  the 
beginning  was  the  word  ... 
The  first  revelation  of  the 
Qur'an,  recorded  by  Muham- 
mad, the  Messenger  of  God. 
was:  "Proclaim  in  the  name  of 


thy  Lord  ...  Who  taught  (the 
use  of)  the  Pen  ..."  (Surah  96). 
(c)  A  third  realm  of  the  power 
of  words  is  the  Court,  which  is 
the  interpreter  of  laws.  Bishop 
Hoadley  once  said:  "Nay  who- 
ever hath  an  absolute  authori- 
ty to  interpret  any  written  or 
spoken  laws  it  is  he  who  is  the 
lawgiver  to  all  intents  and  pur- 
poses &  not  the  person  who 
first  spake  them." 

The  Court  commands  & 
restrains  public  power  &  pri- 
vate interest.  Yet.  it  has  no 
sword  &  no  pvirse.  These 
belong  to  the  executive  and 
legislature. 

How  can  the  Court  stay  the 
have  of  one,  &  void  the  act  of 
the  other?  B/c  to  the  Court 
belongs  the  word.  The  sword 
may  not  be  drawn,  nor  the 
purse  filled  or  emptied,  con- 
trary to  that  word.  The  power 
of  the  Court  is  power  of  words, 
as  spoken  from  its  bench  and 
inscribed  upon  its  writ. 

The  power  of  words  is  based 
upon  the  words  of  power,  (a) 
Words  of  power  signify  the  pri- 
mary values  on  which   each 


realm  depends,  (b)  The  primary 
values  are  those  standards  for 
human  conduct  that  are 
demanded  by  the  best  of 
human  conscience  and  intel- 
lect, (c)  The  word  that  gives 
power  to  the  University  is 
TRUTH:  the  word  that  gives 
power  to  the  Church  is 
MERCY:  the  word  that  gives 
power  to  the  court  is  JUS- 
TICE. 

The  power  of  words  will 
endure  only  so  long  as  the 
words  of  power  reflect  what  is 
a  reality  of  truth,  &  of  mercy 
and  of  justice. 

The  power  of  words  will 
endure  only  when  the  people 
believe  in  the  strength  and 
integrity  of  the  three  realms,  & 
trust  the  authenticity  of  the 
words  power,  (a)  University, 
Church,  &  Court  must  have 
the  strength  to  protect  the 
words  of  power  from  corruption 
by  others.  They  must  have  the 
integrity  to  assure  that  the 
realms  themselves  are  gov- 
erned by  truth,  mercy  &  jus- 
tice. Their  domain  will  depend 
upon  a  steadfast  watch,  within 


&  without,  against  "truth"  that 
is  false:  "mercy"  that  is  cruel; 
&  "justice"  that  is  wrong.  (b| 
The  authenticity  of  the  words 
of  power  will  be  accepted  in  tlie 
same  measure  that  trutli. 
mercy  &  justice  are  secure  in 
the  lives  of  people,  (c)  Hollnw 
words  will  pass  away.  Honest 
words  will  stand. 

What  this  has  to  do  wiili 
you.  as  graduates,  is  this:   (a; 
The  power  of  the  Universitv.l 
Church.    &    Court   is   basic 
upon  the  values  that  are  syin 
bolized  by  the  words  of  power: 
&    is    dependent    upon    tin 
authenticity  of  those  words  oi 
power,    (b)   You   have   tocla\ 
some  of  the  power  of  word^ 
that  has  come  to  you  from  tht 
University:  &  you  may  acquire 
some  of  the  power  of  word 
from  the  other  two  realms,  (c 
Whether  the  power  of  word;- 
that  now  is  yours  will  endure] 
or  increase,  will  depend  upor 
the  extent  to  which  your  life  i; 
guided  by  truth,  mercy.  &  b\

ommencement  1 992 


The  9th  of  May  at  9:30ain 
in  the  Academic  Quadrangle  — 
that  was  the  beginning  of  the 
end  for  the  members  of 
Oglethorpe  University's  Class 
of  1992.  That  Saturday  was 
the  day  of  Commencement.  As 
the  graduates  marched  in  to 
the  The  Peachtree  Bass  playing 
"Pomp  and  Circumstance", 
each  student  knew  that  this 
was  the  last  official  activity  in 
which  they  would  participate 
as  a  student  of  OU. 

President  Dr.  Donald  S.  Stan- 
ton oilers  Lhe  welcoming  remarks  lo

was  held  in  the  Academic  Quadrangle. 


The  program  began  with  a 
welcome  by  President  Stanton 
lollowed  by  the  musical  Call  to 
Celebration  by  the  University 
Corale.  Student  Awards  were 
then  presented  by  various  fac- 
ulty members  in  recognition  of 
outstanding  academic  as  well 
as  leadership  achievement. 

After  the  student  awards. 
Senior  Class  President.  Randy 
Greer  delivered  his  remarks  on 
behalf  of  the  Senior  Class  of 
1992.  The  point  of  his  message 
was  simple  yet  important  not 
only  to  the  graduates  but  to 
the  audience  of  parents  and 
friends  as  well,

After  listing  some  well-known 
problems  with  the  university. 
Randy  noted.  "It  is  a  natural 
human  tendency  to  notice  the  bad 
and  overlook  the  good."  However, 
he  admitted  that  upon  reflecting 
on  his  years  at  OU  he  realized 
how  insignificant  these  "petty 
grievances"  were  and  how  lucky 
he  was  "to  have  attended  and  now 
be  graduating  from  such  a  fine 
school." 

Greer  concluded,  therefore, 
that  instead  of  looking  for  the 
bad.  everyone  should  focus  on  the 
positive  aspects.  To  emphasize  his 
point.  Greer  ended  his  remarks 
with  this  quote  from  Henry  David 
Thoreau:  "If  one  advances  confi- 
dently in  the  direction  of  his 
dreams,  and  endeavors  to  live  the 
life  which  he  has  imagined,   he

Chapter  Two 


August  meant  it  was  time  to  make  the  summer  a  memory. 

And  to  get  prepared  for  our  education. 

Back  to  school  to  gain  some  information, 

as  well  as  lots  of  mental  cultivation. 
It  also  meant  that  it  was  a  time  to  be  scholarly. 

The  curriculum  and  the  core  got  quite  a  new  design. 
Several  changes  were  made  in  history  class 
And  there  was  even  more  composition  to  pass. 
You  could  learn  more  esp.  through  a  looking  glass 

Would  the  new  core  work?  The  answer  is  a  ?  of  time. 

Throughout  the  year,  the  library  was  expanding. 

And  when  it's  all  finished  and  through 

There  will  be  twice  as  much  to  persue. 

In  addition,  a  24  hour  study  room  too! 
And  the  new  books  made  study  time  demanding. 

Thank  your  professors,  for  your  education. 
You  may  think  some  are  "Mad  Hatters" 
Or  that  their  lecture  doesn't  really  matter. 
But  they  deserve  a  little  thanks  or  some  flatter. 

Even  if  you  can't  stand  them  or  their  examination.

The  Honors  program  and 
wards  Night  are  the  two  most 
restigious  ways  in  which  aca- 
emic  excellence  is  rewarded  at 
>\J.  Graduating  with  Honors 
tiows  dedication  to  a  chosen 
eld  of  study,  and  receiving 
nd  award  at  the  annual  cere- 
lony  shows  university  recog- 
ition  of  special  achievement. 

The  honors  program  con- 
ists  of  three  aspects  of  proving 
ne's  dedication  to  his/her 
eld:  observation  of  peers, 
;search  of  a  specific  topic, 
nd  presentation  of  one's  pro- 
ct.  Upon  completion  of  these 
jquirements,  a  review  process 
ccurs,  and  (usually)  one  is 
llowed  to  march  with  Honors. 

Eddie  Zarecor,  whose  topic 


is  "Kant  and  Rousseau:  a 
Comparative  Study  of  Political 
Philosophy,"  explained  that 
this  program  is  a  prestigious 
part  of  the  academic  environ- 
ment. He  expressed  concern, 
however,  saying,  "It  is  demand- 
ing as  you  make  it.  I  think  it 
could  be  regulated  better  by 
some  individual  advisors."  Nev- 
ertheless, he  doesn't  think  this 
criticism  applies  to  his  advisor. 
Eddie  states,  "I  have  a  lot  of 
respect  for  Dr.  PCinippenberg. 
He  provided  focus  and  helped 
me  narrow  down  a  complicated 
subject."

ed academic  achievement  as 
well  as  general  appreciation.

"The  library  expansion  is  a  great  thing 

because  there  will  be  more  books  and 

students  won't  have  to  rely  on  Emory 

anymore." 

Tracy  Frey 

pecial  Edition 


Well,  it  seems  Oglethorpe 
students  will  soon  be  forced  to 
find  something  else  to  com- 
plain about.  Yes,  that's  right. 
The  university  has  improved 
the  library!  Formerly  Loury 
Hall,  the  re-named  Philip  Welt- 
ner  Library  is  not  only  going  to 
be  bigger,  it  is  also  promised  to 
be  better. 

Aesthetically,  the  addition  to 
the  building,  which  covers  the 
entire  rear  and  the  right  half 
(viewed  from  the  front)  of  the 
building,  blends  perfectly  with 
the  Gothic  style  architechture 
of  the  main  building.   Con- 


structed by  the  Van  Winkle 
Company,  it  was  designed  to 
add  symmetry  to  the  main 
building. 

However,  the  new  wing  is 
not  simply  a  stately  facade. 
Along  with  expanding  the  facil- 
ity itself,  library  services  are 
also  going  to  be  expanded. 

Many  students  should  be 
pleased  to  discover  that  a 
twenty-four  hour  study  room 
will  be  available.  Moreover, 
more  books  are  to  be  added  for 
greater  research  (and  pleasure 
reading)  capability. 

As  a  highlight  to  the  library 


expansion,  a  new  university 
museum  was  constructed  with- 
in the  new  wing.  The  museum 
is  proud  to  have  attained  a 
permanent  display.  Mrs. 
Dorothy  McClatchey  graciously 
donated  a  collection  consisting 
of  jewelry,  textiles,  books,  and 
manuscripts  that  she  aquired 
through  her  world  travels. 

Among  the  Jewelry  in  the 
collection  is  such  diverse 
pieces  as  a  pair  of  17th-centu- 
ry turquoise  and  silver  Tibetan 
earings  and  a  19th-century 
French  pin.  The  museum  will 
be  opened  in  the  fall.

Originally,  a  Geek  was  a 
performer  in  a  circus  sideshow 
who  devoured  live  animals. 
Nowadays,  Geeks  seek  their 
fame  and  fortune  by  flying 
paper  airplanes,  building 
bridges  out  of  popsicle  sticks 
and  glue,  writing  excruciatingly 
awful  opening  sentences  for 
fictional  novels,  guessing 
which  definition  of  "sax- 
ifragous"  is  the  correct  one. 
and  figuring  out  just  who  Pro- 
fessor Lee  Boggus  was  pre- 
tending to  be  this  year.  (Mary, 
Queen  of  Scots  was  succeeded 


by  Catherine  de  Medici.) 

Early  in  the  Spring 
Semester,  nearly  a  hundred

the  faculty  participated  in  one 
or  more  of  the  eighteen  (pseu- 
do)intellectual  contests  held 
during  the  Second  Annual 
Geek  Week.  The  competition 
was  keen,  as  Patrick  Grey 
edged  Will  Corum  by  four

"Throughout  all  forms  of  art,  we 
become  better  in  touch  with  the 
brighter  capabilities  of  the  mind." 

Mr.  Alan  Loehle 

hallenge  your  mind 


Oglethorpe  has  seen  a  grow- 
ing interest  in  developing  its 
art  department  over  the  last 
several  years.  Because  there 
are  a  great  number  of  outlets 
for  one's  creativity.  OU  has 
tried  to  offer  many  different 
types  of  art  classes.  With  the 
variety  of  art  classes  that  were 
offered  this  year,  many  stu- 
dents were  able  to  challenge 
their  minds,  tapping  into  their 
own  world  of  creativity. 

Besides  art  appreciation, 
one  had  many  choices  in  devel- 
oping a  particular  skill  in  one 


of  many  arts.  Several  drawing 
classes  were  offered  to  help 
develop  an  individualized 
drawing  style.  For  example,  for 
those  interested  in  sketching 
the  human  body.  Mr.  Loehle 
taught  figure  drawing  as  a  spe- 
cial topics  class  in  studio  art. 

Some  of  the  more  popular 
art  classes  were  the  various 
painting  classes.  The  most 
talked  about  class  was  taught 
by  Mr.  Richard  Serrin.  who  is 
the  Artist-In-Resident.  Having 
an  exhibition,  "Paintings  by

Fall  of  1989.  the  university 
had  the  opportunity  to  contin- 
ue to  have  Mr.  Serrin  instruct 
several  classes  on  the  17th 
Century  Baroque  painting 
techniques. 

Photography  classes  have 
also  been  a  popular  choice  to 
challenge  creativity.  Not  only 
did  one  learn  the  art  of  pho- 
tographing an  image,  but  also 
how  to  develop  the  picture. 

Oglethorpe  has  helped  many 
to  "see"  that  anything  is  possi- 
ble when  the  mind  creates  it.

"I  dread  Hearst."  Spoken

Jennifer  Allen's  sentiments  are 
shared  by  most  science 
majors.  Whether  it  be 
[chemistry,  biology,  or  physics, 
all  science  classes  are  held  in 
one  building  --Goslin  Hall. 

Most  science  majors  view 
the  fact  that  Oglethorpe  is  so 
small  that  all  science  classes 
are  in  the  same  building  as  a 
positive  aspect  of  going  to 
school  here.  Denise  Allen 
e.vplains.  "It's  like  a  big  family. 
Everyone  goes  through  the 


same  things.  We  help  each 
other  by  sharing  what  we've 
learned  in  classes." 

Moreover,  the  professors 
know  the  students  and 
sometimes  adjust  the  focus  of 
their  lessons  accordingly.  For 
example.  Jennifer  Allen  notes 
that  since  Dr.  Roulison  knows 
that  biology  majors  do  not 
really  care  about  physics,  he 
makes  it  fun  for  them.  By 
drawing  from  what  biology 
majors  already  know,  he 
relates  it  physics  to  make  it 
more  interesting. 


Furthermore,  most  science 
majors  do  not  mind  being 
called  a  "Goslin  Geek."  In  fact, 
many  proudly  call  themselves 
that.  Students  view  that  name 
as  representative  of  the  hard 
work  and  long  hours  they 
dedicate  to  their  studies.  For 
example,  Sean  Hyden  con- 
servatively estimates  that  he 
spends  15  to  20  hours  a  week 
outside  class  in  the  labs.  The 
refore,  for  him  and  for  many 
other  science  majors,  being 
called  a  Goslin  Geek  is  a  sign 
of  respect. 


Could  you  help  me  with  this  problem?  Denise  Allen,  a  biology-  major. 
shares  infomialion  uith  a  fellow  "Goslin  Greek"  after  class. 


A  home  away  from  home.  The  lounge  in 
the  bottom  floor  of  Goslin  is  more  than  a  place  to 
get  a  soda.  Students,  like  Mark  Caprio.  do  last 
minute  studying  and  sleeping  here. 

Waiting  is  part  of  the  process.  Dr. 

Roulison  and  some  of  his  students  perform  a 
physics  e.xpeiiment. 


Academics 


S  ummer  school 


Few  students  who  take 
summer  school  classes  can 
take  advantage  of  the  "lazy" 
days  of  summer.  They  struggle 
to  keep  up  with  the  fast  pace  of 
the  summer  sessions. 

Whether  it  be  the  mini-ses- 
sions of  three  and  one-half 
weeks  and  four  and  one-half 
weeks  or  the  nine  week  class- 
es, students  e.\perience  inten- 


sive learning. 

Not  only  does  Oglethorpe 
offer  regular  classes,  such  as 
American  Literature  and 
Statistics,  but  the  schedule 
also  offers  many  special  topics 
courses.  Students  were  able  to 
take  such  classes  as  Special 
Topics  in  History:  Roman  His- 
tory, Special  Topics  in  Politics: 
American   Political  Thought, 


and  Special  Topics  in  Litera- 
ture: Southern  Literature. 

Classes,  however,  were  not 
the  only  thing  happening  dur- 
ing summer  school.  Summer 
school  students  also  organized 
some  social  events.  Chief 
among  these  was  perhaps  the 
Wednesday  Softball  Madness 
organized  by  Tim  Evans. 


Hangin'  out  between  classes. 

Mark  Willlanis  (and  some  anonvinous 
person  sleeping  on  the  couch  in  the 
background)  find  the  Great  Hall  the 
perfect  place  to  wait  for  class  to  start. 

The  lazy  days  of  summer?  Like 
nian\'  other  summer  classes,  students 
in  this  Southern  Literature  class  are 
not  only  regular  OU  students,  but 
some  come  from  other  schools,  such  as 
UGA  and  Sewanne.

gave  Oglethorpe's  clubs  a  purpose 


Chapter  Three 


There's  something  for  everyone.  A  way  to  get  involved. 

Once  you  Join  one,  you'll  see. 

There's  a  place  for  you  and  one  for  me. 

Can't  find  one  you  like-start  your  own-easy  as  ABC 
A  gathering  place  for  leadership.  Does  it  matter  what  it's 

called? 

Service  to  the  community  is  one  objective. 

Clubs  like  APO  and  Rotaract  were  always  there 

to  lend  a  helping  hand,  if  needed  any  where. 

And  Best  Buddies  aided  those  who  needed  extra  care. 

Clubs  who  helped  their  neighbors  were  very  effective. 

For  those  who  like  to  sing  and  dance, 

OU  has  clubs  for  you  to  try  out. 

Also  an  acting  club,  for  you  to  sprout. 

Performance  clubs  are  very  unique,  that's  no  doubt. 
You  never  know,  you  could  perform,  give  it  a  chance. 

Leadership  clubs  can  sometimes  be  a  chore 
But  look  at  OSA  and  BSC  and  you'll  agree 
that  improving  student  relations  and  policy 
is  a  great  benefit  to  both  you  and  to  me. 

This  is  just  a  taste  of  what's  in  store.

Atlanta's  skyline  is  a 
reminder  to  all  who 
live  here  that  the 
thrill  of  a  big  city 
can  co-exist  with  the  serenity 
of  the  suburbs,  the  beautiful 
parks,  and  our  own  Ogle- 
thorpe. Preparing  ourselves  for 
this  fast-paced  world  was 
somewhat  simplified  with  the 
help  of  the  strong  professional 
clubs.  They  helped  to  lead  us 
outside  of  Oglethorpe's  shelter- 
ing walls  and  into  the  heart  of 
the  city. 

According  to  Dr.  Mary  Mid- 
dleton,  the  accounting  club 
was  "One  of  the  most  active 
clubs  on  campus."  Its  activities 
began  with  a  fall  social  that 
introduced  accounting  majors 
to  prospective  employers.  The 


club  also  frequented  some  of 
the  "Big  Six"  accounting  firms. 
Graduates  were  so  well- 
prepared  after  four  years  of 
networking  and  interxaews,  an 
immediate  job  placement  was 
almost  guaranteed. 

Student  Education  Associa- 
tion (SEA)  was  also  busy. 
Oglethorpe  alumni  who  teach 
in  the  Atlanta  area  revealed 
their  secrets  for  successful 
teaching  through  student 
teaching  programs,  which 
allowed  the  education  majors 
to  experience  the  rewards  and 
the  hard  work  of  their  future 
career. 

The  computer  club  was  a 
new  addition  to  Oglethorpe. 
Designed  primarily  to  expose 
members  to  new  software  on 


the  market,  the  club  also 
focused  its  attention  on  dis- 
pelling the  general  fear  of  com- 
puters held  by  the  average  stu- 
dent. Games  and  tutorial  pack- 
ages for  various  academic  sub- 
jects were  introduced  to  mem- 
bers and  non-members  alike. 

The  psychology/sociology 
club  held  frequent  meetings  in 
order  to  discuss  the  problems 
faced  by  psychologists.  The 
members  also  discussed  the 
variety  of  opportunities  avail- 
able in  the  two  diverse  fields. 

Professional  clubs  focused 
on  life  in  the  "real  world". 


Heart  of  the  City.  Atlanta,  the 
largest  cir\'  in  the  Southeast,  provides

graduates.

There  were  nine 
lionor  societies  on 
our  campus  this 
year.  Three  of 
these  we  introduced  earlier. 

Omicron  Delta  Kappa  was 
an  honor  society  for  Juniors 
and  seniors.  There  can  only 
be  fifteen  student  members. 
Significant  achievement  in 
three  of  the  five  areas  of 
scholarship,  athletics,  stu- 
dent government,  organiza- 
tions, and  publications. 
They  inducted  their  new 
members  in  December  1991. 


Tap.  Tap.  Tap!  Omicron  Delta 
Kappa  tapping  new  members  for  this 
year.  They  are  happy  to  be  adding  new- 
blood  to  their  honor  society. 


Phi  Alpha  Theta,   the  cri 
teria    for    entrance    was    a 
three   point   overall   GFA  and 
three  point  one  GPA  in   four 
history  or  related  courses. 

The  business  administra- 
tion honorary.  Beta  Omicron 
Sigma,  was  also  open  to  only 
juniors  and  seniors.  The 
new  members  for  that  honor 
society  were  inducted  during 
the  spring  semester. 

There  was  the  national 
honorary  dramatic  fraterni- 
ty. Alpha  Psi  Omega,  who 
was  sponsored  by  Lee  Bog- 
gus.  To  be  chosen  for  this 
honorary  points  were  earned 
by  participating  in  the  Play- 
makers.  They  issued  invita- 
tions  to   five   new   members 


this  year.  They  also  awarded 
a  new  member  the  Alpha  Psi 
Omega  Rookie  Award. 

Two  honor  societies,  who 
were  not  pictured,  this  year. 
Phi  Eta  Sigma  and  Sigma 
Tau  Delta.  Phi  Eta  Sigma  Is 
an  honorary  for  freshmen.  A 
three  point  five  GPA  either 
in  the  first  or  second 
semester  of  the  freshman 
year  was  needed  to  be  invit- 
ed to  join.  New  members  for 
Phi  Eta  Sigma  were  inducted 
during  the  fall  semester  of 
their  sophomore  year. 

Sigma  Tau  Delta  was  the 
national  English  honorary 
on  campus.  They  inducted 
their  new  members  in  the 
spring  also.

O 


glethorpe  has 

always  been  known 
lor  its  high  quality 
education,  yet  stu- 
dents still  found  the  time  to 
participate  in  its  year-round 
active  service  organizations. 

Rotoract  has  been  a  familiar 
name  on  OU's  campus.  The 
annual  Trick-or-Treat-in-Traer 
was  held  this  fall  for  the  chil- 
dren of  surrounding  schools,  as 
well  as  for  the  "kids  at  heart" 
on  campus.  Hospitals,  youth 
clubs,  and  soup  kitchens  were 
also  among  the  many  worthy 
organizations  that  received  the 
volunteer  services  provided  by 
Rotoract. 

Alpha  Phi  Omega  (APO)  was 
also  consistent  in  its  service  to 
the  campus  and  to  the  commu- 


nity. Collecting  goods  and 
clothing  in  a  Trick-or-Treat  for 
the  poor  provided  a  fun  and 
worthwhile  time  for  all.  The 
local  Boy"s  Club  and  Probe 
fairs  throughout  Atlanta  also 
received  the  help  of  these  car- 
ing students  who  clearly  live  by 
their  motto  of  "leadership, 
friendship,  serxlce." 

Tracy  Larson,  an  active  offi- 
cer of  APO,  brought  a  chapter 
of  the  "Best  Buddies"  program 
to  campus  this  year.  Best  Bud- 
dies is  a  program  designed  to 
promote  special  friendships 
between  university  students 
and  persons  with  mental  retar- 
dation. 

OU  Ambassadors  (formerly 
VISTA)  focused  its  service  on 
the  campus  itself.  Tours,  visita- 


tion days,  and  phone  calls  kept 
the  volunteers  busy  all  year, 
yet  they  still  strove  to  recruit 
new  OU  students  as  best  as 
they  could. 

Alcohol  and  Health  Aware- 
ness was  designed  by  a  group 
of  Oglethorpe's  staff  and  stu- 
dents to  make  the  OU  commu- 
nity more  aware  of  the  prob- 
lems caused  by  drugs  and  alco- 
hol. The  group  sponsored  the 
Great  American  Smokeout  as 
well  as  other  support  cam- 
paigns to  encourage  students 
to  lead  a  healthy  lifestyle  and  a 
"drug- free  life."

AlthoiijJh  Oglethorpe 
was  recognized  as 
being  a  strong  aca- 
demic institution, 
students  were  partially  attract- 
ed to  the  school  by  the  variety 
of  creative  outlets  available. 
The  performing  arts,  which 
included  acting,  singing,  danc- 
ing, and  playing  instruments, 
were  an  essential  part  of  the 
campus  atmosphere. 

The  Playmakers  -  Oglethorpe 
University  Theatre,  directed  by 
Prof.  Lee  Boggus  performed 
Moliere's  Tartuffe  as  the  fall 
performance.    In   February. 


Do  you  trust  my  pious  face? 

Tartuffe  (Troy  D\VT,'erl  convinces  Argon 
(Kevin  Keenan)  of  his  innocence  as 
Damis  (Devin  Pintozzi)  looks  on. 


Alpha  Psi  Omega  pcrforiiu-d 
"The  Rain  of  Terror"  and  'The 
Happy  Journey."  two  one-act 
plays.  Independence  by  Lee 
Blessing  was  performed  as  the 
spring  show. 

With  all  of  the  Playmakers' 
shows,  the  audience  was  sur- 
prised. Along  with  excellent 
acting,  the  sets  were  unique. 
For  Independence  the  audience 
was  seated  on  the  stage  and 
had  the  feeling  of  being  inside 
the  family  living  room. 

The  University  Singers  and 
Chorale  also  had  an  excellent 
year.  Dr.  W.  Irwin  Ray  has 
been  the  conductor  of  the 
Singers  for  six  years.  The  fall 
concert.  Mostly  Mozart,  was  a 
great  success.  Those  who 
attended,  even  those  sitting  in 


the  aisles,  had  an  enjoyable 
evening.  The  Singers  per- 
formed at  the  annual  Boar's 
Head  ceremony  to  a  full  house. 
The  spring  concert  celebrated 
the  sesquicentennial  of  Sidney 
Lanier's  birth.  The  music  for 
this  concert  was  commissioned 
for  the  1991-92  Singers.  The 
poetry  of  Sidney  Lanier  became 
the  lyrics  of  the  songs. 

The  OU  Dance  Company 
was  in  its  fourth  year  of  exis- 
tence and  was  stronger  than 
ever.  They  performed  at 
Atlantic  City  Night  adding  to 
the  atmosphere  of  Atlantic 
City.  Also,  their  performances 
at  the  basketball  games  were 
crowd  pleasing  and  greatly 
appreciated.

There  were  many 
active  academic 
clubs  on  campus 
this  year.  We  had 
The  Writing  Company,  The 
English  Club.  and  the 
Oglethorpe  Academic  Team. 

The  Writing  Company  locat- 
ed on  the  third  floor  of  Hearst 
was  instituted  to  help  students 
in  writing  papers  for  all  their 
classes.  This  service  was  espe- 
cially helpful  to  freshmen  stu- 
dents who  are  being  their  first 
major  college  papers. 

The  English  Club  worked 
at  promoting  Interest  in  the 
arts,  literature,  poetry  read- 
ings, and  music  at  their 
meetings.  They  also  chose  the 
recipient  of  the  Pierian  Award 
which  goes   to  a  humanities 


professor. 

The  Oglethorpe  Academic 
Team  met  weekly  this  year  to 
prepare  for  regular  intercolle- 
giate academic  competitions. 
Several  team  members  partici- 
pated at  every  meet. 

Psl  Chi  the  psychology  hon- 
orary inducted  their  new  mem- 
bers in  early  November,  and  it 
is  open  to  people  majoring  or 
minoring  in  psychology.  The 
purpose  of  Psl  Chi  was  to 
encourage,  stimulate,  main- 
tain scholarship  and  advance 
the  science  of  psychology. 

Oglethorpe's  Alpha  Nu 
chapter  of  Sigma  Zeta  was  ser- 
vice oriented.  It  Is  open  to  sci- 
ence majors  with  a  three  point 
three  grade  point  average  in 
science    and     mathematics 


courses,  and  a  three  point  zero 
overall  average. 

Alpha  Chi  the  primary  aca- 
demic honor  society  is  open 
only  to  juniors  and  seniors 
who  have  high  scholastic  aver- 
ages. These  students  are  rec- 
ommended by  Oglethorpe  Uni- 
versity faculty  for  entrance 
into  this  honorary.  They  also 
have  an  annual  scholarship 
named  for  their  society. 

These  three  honor  societies 
are  also  dedicated  to  aca- 
demics on  our  campus,  they 
are  very  representative  of  our 
small  campus.

Should  we  say  grace?  The  setting

students  and  faculty  to  openly  discuss

issues.

Concentrating  on 
the  vital  issues  of 
the  day.  clubs 
such  as  the  Black 
Student  Caucus,  the  Public 
Affairs  Forum,  the  College 
Democrats,  and  the  College 
Republicans  allowed  students 
as  well  as  faculty  members  to 
express  their  theories  and 
opinions  about  politics. 

The  Black  Student  Caucus 
focused  its  attention  on  topics 
relevant  to  the  people  of 
African  American  heritage. 
Open  to  students  of  all  races, 
this  club  met  to  discuss  the 
problems  among  the  different 
races  and  to  debate  the  politi- 
cal issues  that  directly  affect 
the  black  race. 

The  Public  Affairs  Forum 


was  a  more  informal  meeting 
of  both  students  and  faculty. 
This  group  met  every  Monday 
at  noon  in  the  small  dining 
room  to  listen  to  a  presenta- 
tion on  such  issues  as  "Why 
there  should  not  be  a  NOW" 
and  "Why  the  first  amendment 
does  not  forbid  state  establish- 
ment of  religion."  After  the 
presentation,  the  group  dis- 
cussed various  questions 
raised  by  the  subject. 

The  College  Democrats 
entered  their  fourth  year  of 
existence  at  Oglethorpe  this 
year.  They  participated  in  the 
political  campaigns  of  candi- 
dates such  as  Paul  Tsongas. 
Although  the  members  all  con- 
sider themselves  Democrats, 
most  members  did  not  strictly 


adhere  to  the  straight  party 
platform.  In  fact.  President 
Paul  J.  Kane  said.  "Most  of 
our  members  are  people  who 
hate  the  Republicans."  This 
club  met  every  other  Friday  at 
noon  in  the  small  dining  room. 
The  College  Republican 
went  through  a  reorganizatlon- 
al  year.  Being  out  of  existence 
for  two  years,  the  club  had 
some  trouble  raising  member- 
ship. However,  as  President. 
Kent  Mckay  looked  forward  to 
being  a  strong  voice  in  political 
issues  on  campus  and  to  offer- 
ing students  the  opportunity 
to  gain  information  about  the 
party's  objectives.  The  Repub- 
licans held  several  forums  for 
various  Republican  leaders.

The  Oglethorpe  Chris- 
tian Fellowship  was 
a  very  active  club  on 
campus  and  around 
Atlanta.  At  the  beginning  of  the 
fall  semester  they  held  an  ice 
cream  social  so  new  members 
could  meet  old  ones.  They  also 
went  in  a  group  to  Stone 
Mountain  for  the  laser  show, 
and  other  fellowship  acti\ities. 
A  small  group  also  went  on  a 
joint  retreat  with  the  Emory 
Christian  Fellowship. 

They  held  individual  Bible 
studies  every  Monday,  Wednes- 
day, and  Thursday  with  their 
regular  weekly  meetings  being 
held  on  Tuesday  evenings. 
During  these  meetings  they 


presented  programs  such  as 
Focus  on  the  Family,  Tyranny 
of  the  Urgent,  Concert  of 
Prayer,  Foreign  Missions,  and 
the  Power  of  Prayer.  Every 
evening  -  Sunday  through 
Thursday  -  there  was  a  prayer 
meeting  in  Emerson  Student 
Center  next  to  the  mail  room. 
The  OCF  theme  for  this  year 
was  "Knowing  God". 

They  worked  with  the 
Brookhaven  Boys  Club-  read- 
ing, playing  and  all  around 
helping  out. 


All  together  now!  The  Oglethorpe 
Christian  Fellowship  participates  in  a 
sing-along.

International  Club  was 
one  of  the  most  active 
clnljs  on  our  laiupus 
this  year.  International 
Nif<ht  was  very  popular  this 
year,  and  it  gave  students,  fae- 
ully  and  administrators  the 
ehance  to  experience  several 
different  cultures  at  the  same 
lime.  Not  only  did  they  spon- 
sor International  Night  this 
year,  they  also  brought  back 
one  of  the  performers  from 
that  night.  Mauricio  Amaya 
played  "Music  from  the  Andes" 
one  evening  in  the  Bomb  Shel- 
ter. The  International  Club

as  an  informal  way  of  getting 
to  know  the  international  stu- 
dents. 

The  French  Club  was  very 
busy  this  year,  they  must  have 
spent  a  lot  of  lime  baking. 
They  sf)ld  baked  goods  during 
intermission  at  'Tartuffe".  and 
they  also  had  general  bake 
sales.  The  French  Ckib  also 
sponsored  movies  on  Monday 
nights  in  the  librar\'. 

There  were  also  several  lan- 
guage tables  offered  during 
lunch  on  Thursdays.  The 
French.  Spanish.  German, 
and  Japanese  languages  were 
all  offered  so  a  student  could 
go  and  listen  to  or  converse  in 
any  language  they  wished.

Knights,  kings, 
bishops,  and 
queens.  They  are 
among  the  pieces 
of  the  game  which  made  one 
club  a  team  —  Chess  Club. 

The  club  was  re-founded  by 
three  enthusiastic  officers  and 
since  its  re-founding,  the  orga- 
nization has  had  a  prosperous 
year.  The  members  earned 
enough  money  for  chess  sets 
and  a  tournament  clock  and 
now  have  enough  game  boards 
to  accommodate  all  the  play- 
ers; only  sometimes  there 
weren't  enough  chess  boards. 
In  the  spring,   the  chess

club  participated  in  Geek 
Week  by  having  a  "live"  chess 
game:  meaning  students 
dressed  up  and  acted  out  the 
different  pieces  and  move- 
ments. 

Another  of  the  philosophical 
clubs  on  campus  is  the 
Thalians  Society  and  it  is  also 
one  of  the  oldest.  The  original 
Thalians  has  its  own  "Hall": 
members  had  a  library,  rooms 
to  sleep  in  and  of  course, 
rooms  to  be  philosophical  in. 
Mathew  Thompson,  co-chair- 
man, comments  on  the  club 
itself:  "When  I'm  in  a  meeting, 
I  look  at  all  the  serious  young 
men  and  women  intensely  dis- 
cussing a  topic  and  I  think 
about  the  serious  young  men 
and  women  who  stood  in 
Thalians  Hall  in    1835  and 


troubled  themselves  over  the 
same  problems  ...  and  I  won- 
der if  the  President  back  then 
also  worried  about  members 
throwing  food."  "Why  All  Antl- 
abortionists  should  be  Chris- 
tian Scientists."  was  one  of  the 
topics  that  Thalians  discussed. 
Paige  Mackey  of  Oglethorpe 
Students  For  Choice  presented 
the  topic. 

OSFC  was  formed  two  years 
ago  in  an  effort  to  help  stu- 
dents become  involved  in  the 
issue.  On  Saturdays  members 
escorted  clients  of  the  Atlanta 
family-planning  clinics  who 
were  being  harassed.  Execu- 
tive Round  Table  is  a  more  for- 
mal setting  of  Thalians.  Mem- 
bers meet  at  night  in  the  Tal- 
mage  room  and  are  served  din-

The  four  publications 
of  Oglethorpe  kept 
themselves  busy 
this  year.  Whether 
in  newspaper,  magazine,  year- 
book, or  television  form,  stu- 
dents expressed  their  opinions, 
feelings,  and  memories  and 
recorded  them  for  future  years. 
The  Stormy  Petrel  kept  its 
reputation  of  reporting  infor- 
mative and  moving  stories 
while  exhibiting  students'  opin- 
ions of  both  a  factual  and  a 
controversial  nature.  Every  two 
weeks  students  could  be  seen 
reading  and  discussing  the 
articles  contained  in  the  publi- 
cation, and  the  cafeteria  was 
often  filled  with  faces  hiding 
behind  the  open  papers.  The 


Braves'  ascent  to  the  World 
Series  and  the  Core  Convo 
were  among  the  big  newsmak- 
ers of  the  year. 

The  Yamacraw  staff  kept 
busy  as  well,  for  deadlines 
began  to  appear  left  and  right. 
Dedicated  editors,  photogra- 
phers, and  writers  spent  many 
anxiety-filled  hours  planning 
themes,  layouts,  and  an  overall 
book  of  memories  to  give  to 
their  fellow  students.  The 
Yamacraw  staff  proudly  pre- 
sents the  1992  yearbook  in  the 
hopes  that  it  will  be  enjoyed  by 
all. 

The  Tower.  Oglethorpe's  lit- 
erary magazine,  is  comprised 
annually  of  works  —  both 
graphic  and  literary  —  com- 


posed by  and  for  the  students. 
This  anthology  of  the  artistic 
expression  of  Oglethorpe  stu- 
dents is  one  of  the  finest  col- 
lections of  the  written  emotions 
and  opinions  of  our  student 
body  and  carries  on  the  tradi- 
tion of  creative  excellence, 

"BSTV"  (Bomb  Shelter  Tele- 
\asion)  is  produced  by  students 
interested  in  the  behind-the- 
scenes  action  of  film  and  televi- 
sion. Oglethorpe  was  privileged 
to  offer  its  campus  as  scenery 
for  the  movie  Hot  House,  star- 
ring L.A.  Law's  Michelle  Green. 
The  director,  Menaham  Golan, 
spoke  to  some  students  and 
BSTV  members  about  his 
work  in  independent  film  pro-

Leaders  at  Oglethorpe 
were  faced  with  the 
challenge  of  organiz- 
ing interesting  activi- 
ties. With  the  implementation 
of  the  student  activities  fee. 
OSA  including  Executive 
Council,  Senate,  and  the  Pro- 
gramming Board  have  been 
able  to  plan  bigger  and  better 
activities.  OSA  sponsored  a 
new  event  this  year  called  OU 
Unplugged  where  everyone  with 
acoustics  talent  was  encour- 
aged to  come  to  Traer  on  Sun- 
day afternoon  to  perform  while 
others  chose  to  listen.  This  was 
a  nice  peaceful  study  break. 

The  OSA  outdoor  movie 
nights  were  held  every  first 
Thursday  of  each  month.  Cur- 
rent movies  such  as  Awaken- 


ings and  City  Slickers  were 
shown  as  well  as  old  favorites 
like  The  Princess  Bride  and 
Metropolis. 

Atlantic  City  Night  was  held 
in  November  where  students 
had  the  chance  of  winning  "big" 
with  the  $20,000  they  were 
given  as  they  walked  through 
the  door.  Of  course  this  was 
not  real  money,  but  it  served  its 
purpose.  Oglethorpians  were 
given  the  chance  to  pretend 
they  were  in  Atlantic  City  for 
the  night  rather  than  in  the 
dining  hall.  This  was  an  excit- 
ing evening  for  all.  even  if  they 
didn't  win. 

OSA  and  fy-IA  cosponsored 
the  Halloween  Jam  which 
meant  double  fun  for  everyone. 
Dinner  was  served  in  Traer 


where  the  annual  volleyball 
tournament  was  held  and  a 
costume  dance  was  held  later 
that  evening.  The  RHA  Beach 
Bash  was  a  hit  again  this  year. 

[•(HA  was  involved  with  the 
implementation  of  the  universal 
campus  phone  system  and  hav- 
ing kitchenettes  placed  in  the 
dorms.  RHA  has  made  many 
improvements  to  the  communi- 
ty life  on  campus  by  encourag- 
ing participation  in  the  OU 
Does  Atlanta  excursions. 

On  their  birthdays,  many 
students  were  surprised  with  a 
cake  and  balloons  sent  by  their 
parents  through  RHA. 

Both  OSA  and  RHA  strive 
throughout  the  year  to  make 
campus  life  more  enjoyable  for 
all  Oglethorpe  students.

Oglethorpe  Expedi- 
tions Unlimited 
was  re-established 
this  year  after 
being  inactive  for  a  number  of 
years.  This  group  sponsored 
short  seminars  on  repelling 
and  hiking,  as  well  as.  back- 
packing, canoeing,  and  rock 
climbing  trips.  OUE  is  a  good 
example  of  the  diversity  of 
clubs  at  Oglethorpe. 

ECOS  is  in  its  second  year 
of  existence  and  its  influence 
can  be  seen  all  over  campus. 
Recycling  has  been  made  easy 
in  an  effort  to  preserve  our 
environment.  ECOS  also  spon- 
sors campus  cleanup  days  and 
this  year  has  begun  cleaning 
along  the  outside  perimeter  of 


the  campus.  As  well  as  cleanup 
and  recycling  ECOS  tries  to 
encourage  students  to  be  en\'1- 
ronmentally  aware  of  what  is 
happening  in  the  world. 

The  cycling  club  may  be 
small  in  numbers  but  they  are 
making  themselves  well  known 
in  the  nation  by  representing 
Oglethorpe  at  cycling  races  in 
the  southeast.  In  addition  to 
racing,  they  are  encouraging 
students  to  ride  bicycles,  and 
are  sponsoring  an  indoor 
cycling  class  in  the  spring. 

Chiaroscuro  is  a  club  that 
was  created  for  any  person 
who  enjoyed,  created,  or 
appreciated  art  of  any  kind. 
This  year  they  sponsored  the 
art  exhibit  at  the  annual  Night 


of  the  Arts,  and  the  second 
annual  Art  Show  that  was  held 
in  the  Great  Hall  in  the  spring. 
As  well  as  displaying  art. 
Chiaroscuro  sponsors  trips  to 
the  High  Museum  of  Art. 

As  many  have  discovered,  a 
club  is  not  difficult  to  begin  at 
Oglethorpe.  All  an  interested 
group  of  people  must  do  is 
submit  a  written  constitution 
to  the  OSA.  If  this  constitution 
is  accepted,  an  official  group  is 
created  on  campus.  This  is  the 
way  that  many  of  Oglethorpe's 
clubs  were  begun.  Students 
had  a  cause  and  a  goal,  with  a 
little  bit  of  determination  a  new 
club  was  formed.  This  is  why 
there  is  something  for  every- 
body at  OU.

Greeks  seem  to  live 
in  a  different  world. 


Chapter  Four 

Going  Greek  means  being  part  of  a  special  bond. 

During  "rush"  you  get  to  select 

which  sorority  or  fraternity,  you  think  is  best. 

And  hopefully,  that  special  bond  will  connect. 
You'll  learn  to  party  and  throw-up  on  the  lawn. 

If  you  want  a  fraternity  as  part  of  your  weekend  scene, 

first,  check  out  their  supply  of  beer. 

But  can  each  have  a   different  atmosphere? 

"Oh  yes!"  you'll  say,  but  which  one  is  not  clear 
Chi  Phi,  KA,  DSP,  SAE,  which  one?  Go  ask  the  QUEEN. 

The  sororities  also  have  their  own  events 

They  get  together  to  talk  about  life  and  school. 
The  Tri  Sigs  and  the  Chi  O's  are  really  cool. 
Even  though,  they  can't  shoot  good  pool. 

Sisters  are  ladies  &  fraternity  brothers  are  gents. 

The  highlight  of  Greek  life  is  known  as  "Greek  Week" 

They  get  together  to  battle  it  out  Olympic  style. 

Sporting  events  kept  them  running  for  miles. 

Then  at  night,  they  sing  &  entertain  us  for  a  while. 
End  of  the  week  brings  victory  for  the  mighty  but  loss 

for  the  meek.

The   KA  Skit  was  enlertainin 
tliough  it  focused  on  Ihe  serious  topic 


of  greek  unity.  Pictured  performing  are     i  \

GREEK 
WEEK 


Greek  unity  —  that  was  the 
underlying  theme  of  Oglethor- 
pe's Greek  Week  1992. 
Through  speeches,  songs, 
skits,  and  field  events,  the  seri- 
ous concerns  of  Greek  life 
found  positive  outlets. 

The  speech  competition,  in 
which  one  brother  from  each 
fraternity  orated  on  the  topic 
"What  My  Fraternity  Means  to 
Me."  reflected  the  personal 
conviction  to  one's  own  group 
of  brothers.  Themes  such  as 
the  vital  loyalty  to  a  group  and 
the  fraternity  as  a  family  domi- 
nated the  content  of  every 
speech. 

The  songs  added  comic  relief 
to  the  week  and  characterized 
each  fraternity  accurately. 
Delta  Sigma  Phi  sang  two 
songs  by  Jimmy  Buffet;  Sigma 
Alpha  Epsilon  sang  "I  Use  to 
Love  Her"  by  Guns  and  Roses;" 
Kappa  Alpha  performed  their 
versions  of  "One;"  and  Chi  Phi 
harmonized  to  "Goodnight 
Sweetheart." 

The  skit  competition  com- 
bined some  serious  topics  with 
hilarious  entertainment.  It  was 


perhaps  the  most  positive  way 
in  which  the  different  Greek 
organizations  have  expressed 
their  opinions  on  such  issues 
as  Greek  housing  and  the  pos- 
sibility of  allowing  a  new  Greek 
organization  join  the  Inter-Fra- 
ternity Council.  Not  only  did 
Delta  Sigma  and  Kappa  Alpha 
entertain  the  audience,  but 
these  two  fraternities,  in  par- 
ticular, also  gave  everyone  con- 
cerned with  the  Greek  system 
as  a  whole  some  "food  for 
thought."  Nevertheless,  the 
skit  competition  also  provided 
the  chance  to  show  creativity. 
Sigma  Alpha  Epsilon's  skit  was 
a  spoof  on  the  Andy  Griffin 
Show,  and  the  Chi  Phi  skit 
was  a  wacked  out  version  of 
the  childhood  favorite  Sesame 
Street. 

An  interesting  aspect  of  the 
1992  Greek  Week  was  the  spe- 
cial role  Kappa  Alpha  played. 
In  order  to  impress  upon  the 
entire  OU  community  and 
especially  to  Greeks  them- 
selves the  importance  of  Greek 
unity,  KA  refused  to  take  its 
points  in  the  contests. 


But  I  hate  Jelly  donuts.  The  Delta 
Sigma  Phi  teammates  stuff  themselves  as 
fast  as  possible  in  the  dine  and  dash 
event.  After  running  piggy-back  to  the 


table,  players  had  to  consume  a  doa 
donuts  and  a  carton  of  milk  before  das] 
ing  piggy-back  back  to  the  finish  line.

Sigma  Sigma  Sigma  was  founded  in  1898  and  since 
then,  the  sisters  have  upheld  this  moto  of  the  sorority. 
Because  of  this  moto  the  sisters  were  involved  in  several  activities 
this  year. 

One  of  the  most  important  activities  is  the  visit  to  the  Robbie 
Page  Memorial  Hospital  in  North  Carolina,  which  helps  disabled 
children  through  the  technique  knowiT  as  play  therapy.  Around 
Easter,  the  sisters  make  cards  and  baskets  to  take  to  the  chil- 
dren. When  they  get  to  the 
hospital,  some  ^^/^S>^  one  dresses 
up  like  the  /^^p^VvJ^N  Easter  Bunny

Throughout  the  year,   the 

sisters  held  mixers  with  all  the  fraternities  -  (except  for  Chi  Phi 
because  schedules  wouldn't  work)  -  even  the  unrecognized  Pi 
Kappa  Phi's.  In  fact,  they  were  the  only  greek  organization,  as  a 
whole,  to  mix  with  them,  no  other  organization  made  an  effort. 

The  Tri  Sigs  had  the  same  number  of  members  as  Chi  Omega. 
even  though  Chi  O  has  been  on  campus  longer.  The  sorority  has 
been  on  campus  since  1987.

is  a  I'ralemity  deeply  rooted  in  tradition,  yet  unafraid  of 
keeping  pace  with  a  changing  university  and  nation.  Mem- 
bers are  committed  to  the  highest  ideals  of  Southern  tradi- 
tion —  as  epitomized  by  our  spiritual  founder.  General  Rolaert  E.  Lee. 
After  regaining  the  charter  in  1972.  Kappa  Alpha  —  Beta  Nu  pro- 
vided a  cadre  of  activities  designed  to  benefit  the  fellowship  and  devel-

a  changing  and  diversifying  American  society.  Our  brothers  and 
future  brothers,  therefore,  will  continue  to  share  this  understanding  of 
life  and  commitment  to  excellence.  Consequently,  the  perpetuation  of 
this  philosophy  will  abound  as  the  new  Kappa  Alpha  Order  mo\es 
onward  to  seek  new  direction  in  shaping  the  destiny  of  KA  and  its 
members.

Delta  Sigma  Phi  had  an  interesting  year  in  1991.  First 
of  all.  they  moved  into  a  new  house,  which  is  three 
times  the  size  of  the  prevaous  house.  It  is  able  to  house 
six  brothers  and  has  a  volleyball  court  and  space  for  a 
new  pool  table. 

During  the  fall  rush,  the  chapter  received  eleven  new  pledges, 
the  highest  number  of  pledges  for  any  fraternity  on  campus. 
Because  of  this.  Delta  Sigma  Phi  is  the  largest  fraternity  of  the 
four  on  campus. 

During  the  fall  intramural  season.  Delta  Sig  won  the 
football  champion  ships.

Fralernities  are  a  peculiar  American  insUlulicjii.  While 
eomparable  student  orf>anizations  exist  abroad,  the  col- 
lege fraternity  in  the  U,S,  has  grown  up  as  a  response 
to  real  needs  among  students  in  college  across  the 
country.  Students  created  them,  and  they  will  survive  so  long  as 
they  serve  the  needs  of  undergraduates. 

Sigma  Alpha  Epsilon  encourages  its  members  to  make  a  com- 
mitment to  something  outside  themselves,  to  something  larger 


than  themselves, 
mitment  is  direct 
program  of  the 
the  things  the 
group,  but  mostly

nitt£iihual 


expression  in  tlte  coinmiinity 
gives  OU  a  sense  of  unity. 

Petrel  Personality  cannot  be  defined. 

As  snobbish,  or  weird,  or  as  a  clown. 

for  all  types  can  be  found. 

At  Oglethorpe  our,  "little  town". 
From  "brains"  to  those  who  are  athletically  inclined. 

Tough  courses  a  OU  makes  it  quite  evident 

that  the  students  have  much  knowledge  &  ambition. 

Working  hard  on  each  test  and  composition. 

And  respected  by  all  for  their  efforts  &  position. 
Thus,  coffee  cups  &  baggy  eyes  make  "all-nighters"  preva 

lent. 

College  life  is  one  of  friendship  and  learning. 
Freshmen  learn  what  studying  is  really  like. 
Sophomores  &  juniors  decide  on  a  major  that's  right, 
&  seniors  come  out  the  dark  &  into  "workday"  light. 

Decisions  to  study  instead  of  party  left  some  yearning. 

Whether  faculty  and  staff  are  smart  and  courageous. 

No  one  word  can  characterize  these  folk. 

Who  are  rich,  or  working,  or  perhaps  broke; 

This  personality  variety  makes  OU  no  joke. 
All  in  all,  Oglethorpe  is  definitely  outrageous!!!

D  Byron  Millican  has  been  a 
pivotal  figure  in  OU's  the- 
ater, earning  membership  in 
Alpha  Psi  Omega,  the  national  drama 
honorary.  Along  with  his  English 
major/vvriting  minor,  he  will  be  the 
first  student  to  graduate  with  the 
newly  instated  drama  minor.  Of  the 
numerous  characters  he  has  por- 
trayed, he  says  that  the  role  of  Ren- 
field  in  Dracula  was  his  favorite.

Byron  has  also  written  many  skits 
and  plays  for  OU  events,  including 
the  play  Songs  of  the  Chatta- 
hoochee, which  was  presented  in 
celebration  of  Lanier's  150th  birth- 
day. 

After  graduation,  he  plans  to  devel- 
op his  writing  portfolio  before  entering 
graduate  school.  He  hopes  to  earn  an 
MFA  in  playwriting  and  a  Phd  in  the 
study  of  contemporary  drama  and  lit-

Just  as  his  roles  have  been  many

Debbie  Fitzgerald 
described  her  first 
impressions  of  OU  with 
an  unmistakable  smile:  "I 
came  to  Oglethorpe  and  sat  in  on 
some  classes  ...  I  fell  in  love  with  the 
school  immediately."  As  a  Political 
Studies  major,  she  plans  to  attend 
law  school  after  graduation. 

Her  career  at  school  has  been  a 
mixture  of  Greek  life  and  student 
leadership.  As   199 1's  Panhellenic 


President  and  sister  of  Tri  Sigma, 
she  had  the  task  of  coordinating 
rush  events  with  Chi  Omega.  She 
was  also  a  senator  of  OSA  and  Sec- 
retary during  her  junior  year.  Along 
with  being  on  the  Campus  Life  Com- 
mittee, she  was  a  Resident  Assis- 
tant. The  demands  on  Debbie's 
schedule  called  for  much  time  man- 
agement and  long  hours  with  her 
"family  away  from  home."

hard   lime  finding  a 
Job  that  incorporates 
all    their    interests. 
Barbie  Stanton  does  not 
have  that  problem.  Her  Inter- 
ests are  in  education  and  home 
economics,  and  she  sees  her 
role  as  the  president's  spouse 
almost  like  a  vocation. 

One  of  her  many  projects 
includes  the  Beautification 
Committee.  Mrs.  Stanton  stat- 
ed that  one  of  the  goals  for  the 
committee  is  to  "make 
Oglethorpe  a  part  of  a  happy 
exciting  environment  which 
will  hopefully  enhance  the 
whole  learning  process." 

A  big  part  of  her  "Job" 
includes  entertainment.  She 
organizes  receptions  for  stu- 
dents, their  parents,  faculty 
and  staff.  Some  of  the  biggest 
functions  are  the  Welcome 
Party  for  new  students  and 


Ihcir  parents  and  the  Christ 
mas  Party.  A  tree  is  decorated 
with  ornaments  that  guests 
can  lake  home  with  them.  She 
also  organizes  several  dinners. 
In  October,  there  Is  an  Okto- 
berfscst  dinner  with  lots  of 
German  food  for  the  faculty 
and  staff. 

Mrs,  Stanton  Is  involved 
with  the  two  "sister"  schools  — 
Seigakuln  in  Tokyo  and  Bel- 
grano  in  Argentina.  She  trav- 
eled with  the  president  to  visit 
the  schools  and  has  given 
speeches  to  elementary  stu- 
dents. 

What  Mrs.  Stanton  enjoys 
most  is  "bridging  the  gap  with 
various  groups  and  helping  to 
facilitate  networking.  That  is  so 
Important."  She  added  "It's 
exciting  because  we  have  rela- 
tionships with  so  many  groups 
from  trustees  to  students."

Wow.  it's  snowing! 
One  could  hear 
this  exclamation 
all  over  campus 
the  Saturday  night  of  January 
18.  The  silence  that  typically 
dominated  the  campus  was 
torn  with  the  yells  of  snowball 
fights  in  the  quad  and  Traer 
and  sledding  on  the  white  hills 
ofOU. 

Who  could  study  with  all  the 
excitement?  One  would  think 
that  these  people  had  never 
seen  snow  before.  Well,  in  fact, 
many  students  had  not.  Chris- 
tine Hathaway,  ironically  a 
native  of  Winter  Park.  Florida, 
had  only  witnessed  one  other 
snowfall  in  her  life.  However, 
this  snow  was  exceptionally 
special  for  her.  That  night  was 
also  her  birthday.  She  beamed 
with  delight  as  she  exclaimed. 
"I  can't  believe  it.  It's  snowing 
on  my  birthday!  What  a  great

present." 

Although  the  weather  out- 
side was  frightful,  students 
played  in  the  snow  well  into 
the  night.  Some  students 
found  cardboard  boxes  out  of 
which  to  make  sleds.  The  hills 
between  Goodman  and  Traer 
were  chosen  as  the  best  spots 
to  speed  over  the  snow  —  and 
each  other.  Snowball  fights 
were  also  fun.  In  Traer.  snow- 
balls were  flying  from  every 
direction  as  students  would 
make  ammunition  and  carry  it 
to  the  upper  levels  of  the  dorm 
to  attack  the  unprepared. 

Despite  all  the  chaos,  some 
students  simply  walked  around 
campus  in  awe  of  the  beauty 
only  nature  could  produce. 
Unfortunately,  the  blanket  of 
snow  quickly  faded,  and  class- 
es resumed  on  schedule  Mon- 
day morning.

At  Oglethorpe,  students  work  hard  to  ensure  the  future. 
In  a  world  where  direction  is  Imperative,  OU  students 
are  up  for  the  challenf^e.  Students  here  are  determined, 
proud,  and  disciplined.  Furthermore,  their  interests  are  varied, 
ensuring  all  aspects  of  the  community  will  get  a  taste  of  Oglethor- 
pe. Here's  a  preview  to  what  the  world  can  expect.  As  a  biology 
major  with  a  3.888  GPA,  Margie  Plagwlt2  looks  forward  to  gradu- 
ate school.  She  plans  on  working  on  a  Phd  in  microbiology.  She 
believes  the  knowledge  of  micro  organisms  applied  to  technology 
helps  and  improves  society  in  general.  Margie  has  found  a  true 
love  in  micro  biology.  She  says, "It's  very  fascinating  and  although 
there's  lots  of  interesting  areas,  this  is  the  one  that  interests  me 
most."  In  the  11th  grade.  Sherry  Richardson  found  her  direction. 
She  started  taking  art  classes  to  form  a  solid  background  in  the 
field.  Now  she  is  learning  the  basics  and  the  principles  of  art  to 
decipher  what  is  good  and  what  is  not.  She  takes  great  pride  in 
her  art  desiring  to  do  the  best  every  time.  She  says.  "I  don't  want 
my  name  and  half-steppin'  in  the  same  sentence. "Ultimatley. 
Sherry  wants  to  be  the  editor  of  her  own  magazine.  Elizabeth

wave  from  OU,  directed  &  powerful.  —  M.  Mobley

Parties,  alcohol,  and  sex 
—  the  typical  stereo- 
type of  a  Friday  night 
on  any  college  cam- 
pus. Does  OU  fall  within  the 
scope  of  this  narrow  view  of  of 
college  life?  Most  likely,  howev- 
er, sexual  awareness  on  our 
campus  is  one  of  the  more 
important  issues  of  concern  for 
the  student  body.  Along  with 
the  increased  publicity  on 
AIDS  and  other  sexually  trans- 
mitted diseases  has  arisen  a 
heightened  awareness  for  the 
need  of  responsible  behavior 
behind  closed  doors.  Students 
at  OU  appear  not  only  to  be 
well  educated  in  the  liberal  arts 
but  also  in  the  area  of  sexual 
awareness.  These  students  are 
level-headed  individuals  that 
agree  on  the  dangers  of 
promiscuous  behavior  and 
affirm  that  they  practice  "safe 
sex."   Junior  Alex  Argento 


William  Girton 

Lyndra  Givens 

Gwendolyn  Glenn 

James  G rambling 


agrees  stating,  "I  feel  many 
students  do  make  the  effort  to 
ensure  that  their  actions  will 
be  of  a  responsible  nature."  To 
further  the  practices  of  safe 
sexual  intercourse,  the  OU 
Bookstore  sell  condoms  to  stu- 
dents. RA's  also  provide  stu- 
dents with  free  condoms  upon 
request.  The  fact  is  that  many 
students  are  unaware  that 
these  condoms  are  readily 
accessable.  Junior  Chris  Bailer 
admitted,  "I  knew  that  they 
had  them  (condoms)  in  the 
bookstore  but  not  in  the  FiA 
stations." 

Students  feel  that  the  small 
size  of  OU  reduces  the  oppor- 
tunity for  casual  sex.  A  majori- 
ty of  students  seek  out  rela- 
tionships with  a  single  individ- 
ual and  tend  to  maintain  that 
relationship.

Being  prepared.  Many  students 
don't  realize  that  contraceptives  are 


available  from  Nurse  Patsy  Bradley  i 
the  campus  infirmary.

Most  American  stu- 
dents would  love  to 
visit  a  distant 
country.  On  the 
other  hand,  the  students  who 
are  from  those  countries  would 
probably  love  to  visit  America. 
This  year,  there  were  50  inter- 
national students  who  repre- 
sented 28  different  countries  at 
OU. 

Seiku  Jammeh  is  probably 
from  one  of  the  least  recog- 
nized countries-The  Gambia; 
which  is  on  the  west  coast  of 
Africa.  Even  though  he  adores 
his  country,  he  left  because  he 
"fell  in  love  with  American  ide- 
als and  their  education  system, 
it's  much  broader."  One  of  the 
things  he  likes  best  about  OU 
is  its  "toughness"  in  courses 
and  the  people  because  there 
are  "all  sorts." 

When  Tuan  Nguyen  was  10. 
he  and  his  family  escaped  from 
Vietnam  and  communism.  His

parents  moved  frequently  to 
CA,  FL  and  then  finally  to  set- 
tle in  GA.  He  went  to  his  first 
school  without  knowing  any 
English  but  he  learned  quickly. 
Tuan's  major  is  architecture 
and  one  his  favorite  things  to 
do  is  martial  arts. 

Basil  Halta  is  from  Jordan 
and  when  he  finished  high 
school  he  came  to  visit  his 
mother  who  lives  in  Jonesboro, 
which  is  why  he's  here  today. 
He  does  wish  that  there  were 
more  students  from  the  Middle 
East,  he  wants  to  educate  peo- 
ple about  his  country.

Erica  and  Laurabeth  Bolster, 
Scott  and  Tracey  Frey,  Robbie 
and  Tom  McGuigan.  Chris  and 
Pat  Frost,  and  Lisa  and  John 
Rock  —  A]]  these  are  siblings 
that  both  attend  Oglethorpe. 
The  financial  aid  office  encour- 
ages brothers  and  sisters  to  go 
to  school  together  by  offering  a 
tuition  discount  for  all  siblings. 
In  fact,  that  is  the  reason  most 
siblings  cite  as  why  they  decid- 
ed to  both  get  their  education 
at  the  same  place.  Besides  the 
discount,  siblings  count  the 
mutual  encouragement  in 
studying  as  the  next  big  advan- 
tage. 

Although  most  siblings  listed 
those  two  as  the  advantages, 
each  pair  differed  in  what  they 
saw  as  the  disadvantages  to 
going  to  school  together. 

For  example.  Laurabeth  Bol- 
ster, the  older  sister,  expressed 


her  < onrerii  ihal  i  '  ll'  .  ' 
way  to  break  awa\  iiMn.  lunn, 
ties  and  establish  one's  own 
identity.  She  said  that  this  pro- 
cess was  made  more  complicat- 
ed by  going  to  the  same  school 
with  her  sister. 

Robbie  McGuigan.  however, 
felt  differently.  He  observed 
that  because  he  came  to 
Oglethorpe  after  his  younger 
brother  people  were  more  Inter- 
ested in  getting  to  know  him. 
Nevertheless,  he  did  admit  that 
one  problem  he  has  is  people 
confusing  him  ulth  his  brother 
and  calling  him  Tom. 

The  McGuigan  brothers,  in 
particular,  have  two  other 
interesting  aspects  about 
attending  Oglethorpe  together. 
Their  sister  Marsha  graduated 
from  Oglethorpe.  Also,  both  are 
brothers  of  the  same  fratemit\- 
—  Kappa  Alpha  Order.

growth,  curriculum 
development  and  dis- 
cussion of  important 
human  rights  issues  combined 
with  a  successful  fund  raising 
campaign  to  enhance  the 
already  lively  intellectual  envi- 
ronment on  campus.  The  Uni- 
versity opened  in  the  fall  with 
1,147  students,  a  fifth  consec- 
utive year  of  more  people  and 
more  viewpoints.  The  issue  of 
curricular  reform  brought 
intelligent  action  and  interac- 
tion among  many  faculty,  stu- 
dents and  staff.  Some  mem- 
bers of  our  community  came  to 
know  each  other  better  and 
appreciate  each  other  more  by 
exploring  human  rights  and 
responsibilities  through  dis- 
cussions of  the  discriminatory 
harassment  policy. 

As  the  1991-92  academic 
year  closes,  OU  is  building  the 
level  of  financial  strength 
required  of  an  educational 


institution  with  outstanding 
students,  faculty  and  pro- 
grams. With  a  goal  of  $18  mil- 
lion. The  Campaign  for 
Oglethorpe  had  attracted  broad 
support.  A  total  of  $14.  5  mil- 
lion had  been  received  by  early 
spring.  This  amount  included  a 
well-publicized  gift  of  $3  mil- 
lion from  the  Robert  W. 
Woodruff  Foundation  toward 
the  construction  of  the  Philip 
Weltner  Library,  which  is 
scheduled  to  open  in  the  fall. 
Less  known  but  important  gifts 
have  come  from  FL,  MI,  IL, 
OK,  GA  and  NY  as  well  as 
individuals  across  the  country. 
The  strongest  themes  of  this 
year  atre  the  efforts  toward  per- 
sonal growth  and  institutional 
progress.  For  Barbie  and  me, 
our  greatest  pleasure  is  shar- 
ing in  the  development  of  OU 
and  its  students,  faculty,  and 
alumni.

This  wIiuIl-  process 
has  been  harder  than 
having  a  baby,  worse 
than  having  a  football 
team,"  says  Dr.  Victoria  Wiess. 
You  may  think  she  is  talking 
about  reaching  lethargic  com- 
position students  on  the 
importance  of  a  detailed  argu- 
ment in  an  essay.  She  is  not. 
She  is  talking  about  the  new 
core  curriculm  that  has  been 
developing  slowly  over  the  past 
year.  The  whole  process  of  get- 
ting Oglethorpe's  faculty  to 
agree  on  the  philosophies  and 
courses  present  in  the  pro- 
posed core  has  been  difficult. 

On  September  17.  there  was 
a  CoreConvocation  where  stu- 
dents were  able  for  the  first 
time,  to  see  the  new  core  and 
comment  on  it.  Then,  a  date  of 
November  12  was  set  for  the 
approval  of  the  core  by  the  fac- 
ulty. This  comes  as  a  surprise 
to  most  students  who  have  not 
heard  about  these  changes. 
Many  were  concerned  with 
what  they  would  find.  "For 
most  students,  it  has  been  like 
somebody  was  in  the  basement 
of  Lupton  making  some 
Frankenstein  monster  come  to 
life,"  said  Matthew  Thompson, 
a  junior  on  the  Core  Convoca- 
tion Committee. 

The  philosophy  behind  the 
new  core  is  based  on  five  ques- 
tions that  each  discipline 
should  address.  These  ques- 
tions are: 

What  are  our  present  ways 
of  understanding  ourselves  and 
the  universe? 

How  do  these  ways  of 
understanding  evolve? 

How  do  we  deal  with  con- 
flicts in  our  ways  of  under- 
standing? 

How  do  we  decide  what  is  of 


value'.'' 

How  do  we  decide  how  to 
live  our  lives? 

These  questions  are  broad, 
but  mean  to  introduce  more 
than  a  rote  of  facts.  Most  fac- 
ulty hope  that  this  different 
philosophy  will  bring  depart- 
ments closer  together  and  lorm 
stronger  lines  of  comniunica 
tion. 

Some  of  the  concerns  of  the 
faculty  might  echo  concerns  of 
the  students.  Several  members 
have  expressed  their  desire  to 
see  the  core  use  minority  voic- 
es and  perspectives  in  answer- 
ing these  questions.  "Decisions 
will  have  to  be  made  about  the 
representation  of  non-tradi- 
tional voices."  says  Dr.  Laura 
Calkins.  "Those  decisions  will 
probably  be  up  to  Individual 
instructors  working  within  a 
frame  work  that  the  whole  fac- 
ulty has  accepted  as  being 
legitimate  for  being  In  the 
core."  It  seems  that  the  core 
ahs  the  flexibility  and  space  for 
a  more  world-wide  perspective. 
"I  hope  that  as  faculty  choose 
texts  for  the  new  core  courses, 
they'll  find  opportunities  to 
introduce  pre\aously  marginal- 
ized voices,"  says  Dr. 
Madeleine  Picclotto. 

"A  key  concept."  says  Dr. 
Victoria  Weiss,  "is  courses 
talking  to  one  another."  Stu- 
dents can  hope  that  this  will 
also  mean  that  through  the 
coherency  of  the  core,  more 
talking  among  students  and 
professors  will  occur  as  well. 
Even  though  few  will  admit 
that  the  new  core  Is  perfect, 
"there  Is  no  question,"  says  Dr. 
Picclotto,  "it  Is  much  more 
Interesting  and  challenging 
than  what  Is  now  in  place."

Students  may  think 
that  they  are  the  only 
ones  experiencing  a 
great  deal  of  stress 
and  and  enormous  pile  of 
work,  but  they  are  wrong.  Four 
professors  have  been  given 
their  homework  assignment  for 
the  year,  and  the  subject  is 
tenure. 

Doctors  Jay  Lutz,  Joseph 
Knippenberg,  Madeleine  Pic- 
ciotto,  and  Alan  Woolfolk  have 
elected  to  present  a  portfolio  of 
why  the  University  should 
grant  them  tenure. 

"The  granting  of 

tenure, "says  Dr.  William 
Brightman,  "is  not  automatic 
and  is  extended  to  only  those 
who  have  demonstrated  during 
a  probability  period,  outstand- 
ing qualities  of  teaching,  pro- 
fessional activities  and  ser- 
vice." In  order  to  show  this, 
professors  who  have  completed 
SLx  years  of  teaching  and  are 
up  for  tenure,  compile  a  portfo- 
lio. 

The  Faculty  Handbook 
spells  out  what  sort  of  items 
that  are  to  be  included.  But, 
basically,  the  portfolio  should 
sum  up  what  the  professor  has 


been  doing  the  past  six  years. 
This  puts  a  new  twist  on  the 
old  essay  —  "What  I  did  on  my 
summer  vacation". 

After  the  portfolio  is  com- 
pleted, the  next  part  of  the  pro- 
cess could  be  argued  as  more 
stressful.  What  happens  next 
is  the  wait.  The  professor 
sends  the  portfolio  to  their 
division  chairperson  by  Novem- 
ber 1.  There  is  then  a  whole 
series  of  written  evaluations 
that  go  back  and  forth  between 
the  chairperson  and  the  pro- 
fessor. By  February  20,  the 
final  evaluation  and  recom- 
mendation is  given  to  the 
provost.  On  April  15,  the 
Provost  sends  the  portfolio  to 
the  President  who  then  shows 
it  to  the  board  of  Trustees. 

To  stress  the  importance  of 
this  process,  if  the  board  does 
not  grant  tenure,  the  professor 
teaches  only  one  more  year  at 
Oglethorpe.  So,  if  your  profes- 
sor comes  to  class  ill-prepared 
and  haggard  looking,  he  might 
be  going  through  tenure  and  is 
staying  up  late  at  night  doing 
his  homework.

As  a  professor  of 
Chemistry.  Dr  Keith 
Aufderheide  main- 
tains that  "hard 
work  is  one  of  the  key  inf>redi- 
ents  in  a  successful  college 
career  in  chemistry  and  in 
other  subjects." 

In  order  to  keep  his  class 
from  being  on  of  those  stress- 
es, he  tries  to  keep  his  classes 
interested.  Each  year,  he  adds 
something  new.  Lately,  it  has 
been  the  use  of  computers. 
Speaking  of  his  approach  to 
teaching  he  says,  "It  really 
depends  on  the  class  ...  Some 
of  the  classes  need  to  laugh, 
and  others  need  to  be  terrified 
...  But  I'm  neither  as  mean  as 
some  people  think  or  as  easy 
as  others  think." 

Dr.  Aufderheide  feels  that 
the  primary  reason  for  being 
here  is  to  learn.  When  the 
work  is  accomplished,  then  the 
play  may  begin  but  "there's  no 
time  to  screw  up." 

Tapping  into  the  energy  of 
students"  is  one  of  the  most 
Important  factors  of  teaching  to 


Dr.  Linda  Taylor.  Professor  of 
English,  who  received  her  AB 
from  Cornell  University  and 
her  Phd  from  Brown  Universi- 
ty. Taylor  thrives  on  the  excite- 
ment of  "things  she  hasn't 
thought  of  before."  And  her 
enthusiasm  for  teaching  finds 
its  source  in  individual  student 
reactions  to  literature  or  her 
own  personal  writings. 

By  talking  to  students  on  an 
Individual  basis,  Taylor  hopes 
to  allow  students  to  "realize 
more  than  they  thought  they 
could."  Her  focus  Is  not  on 
memorization  of  facts  or  a  par- 
ticular point  of  view,  but  on 
the  dynamic  relationship  that 
develops  between  a  student 
and  literature. 

Dr.  Taylor  prefers  to  spend 
her  free  time  "looking  out  of  a 
window,  listening  to  music  and 
writing."  Since  her  appoint- 
ment in  1975.  she  has  contin- 
ued to  find  something  new  and 
"unthought  of  in  what  is  writ- 
ten and  said  by  those  around 
her.

Among  national  Liber- 
al Arts  Colleges. 
Oglethorpe  ranks  in 
the  fourth  Quartile 
according  to  US  News  And 
World  Report's  annual  survey 
of  America's  best  colleges  and 
universities. 

US  News  And  World  Report 
states  that  50%  of  Oglethorpes 
students  come  from  the  top  ten 
percent  of  their  class,  that  the 
average  SAT  score  of  an 
incoming  student  is  1120.  and 
that  spending  per  student  is 
$10,950  per  year.  Its  survey 
also  shows  OU  retaining  74% 
of  its  freshmen,  and  graduat- 
ing only  54%  of  its  students  in 
four  years. 

These  last  three  statistics 
are  considerably  lower  than 
other  schools  and  result  likely 
in  Oglethorpe's  lower  ranking. 
Other  schools  spent  consider- 
ably more  per  student  and 
were  able  to  retain  and  gradu- 
ate them  at  a  higher  rate. 
Buchnell  University  in  PA 
spent  $5,000  more  per  student 
and  graduated  87%  of  their 
students  within  four  years. 
Bucknell  also  held  on  to  93%

of  its  freshmen. 

Oglethorpe's  SAT  scores 
were  the  third  highest  in  the 
state,  behind  Emory  and  Geor- 
gia Tech.  OU  was  also  second 
to  Georgia  Tech  in  terms  of 
percentage  of  students  coming 
from  the  top  10%  of  their  high 
school  class. 

However,  OU  lagged  behind 
other  GA  schools  in  the  overall 
rankings.  Agnes  Scott  topped 
the  second  quartile,  while 
Emory  and  Georgia  Tech  were 
both  listed  among  the  first 
quartile  of  national  universi- 
ties. 

The  top  five  Liberal  Arts 
Colleges  were  Williams. 
Swarthmore,  Amherst,  Bow- 
doin.  and  Pomona. 

The  rankings  were  based  on 
standards  set  by  the  Carnegie 
Foundation  for  the  Advance- 
ment of  Teaching:  data  was 
collected  from  the  colleges. 
Faculty  Phd  rates,  graduation 
rates,  and  freshmen  retention 
rates  accounted  for  75%  of  the 
scores:  20%  was  based  on 
finances  and  5%  on  student 
polls.

Winn  consiclcrinii 
collegiate  linan 
cial  aifl.  one 
does  iiol  think  of 
the  admissions  office's  contri- 
bution to  the  whole  process. 
The  awards  process  can  be  dif- 
ferentiated into  two  categories: 
Academic  Scholarships  and 
need-based  financial  aid.  The 
completed  scholarship  applica- 
tion is  sent  to  the  Admissions 
office  where  a  ranking,  based 
upon  criteria  determined  by 
the  particular  scholarship's 
rules,  is  assigned  to  the  appli- 
cation. In  regard  to  Oglethorpe 
University  scholarships,  the 
assigned  rankings  are  given  a 
set  amount  of  money  deter- 
mined by  OU's  administration. 
The  application  is  then  sent  to 
the  Financial  Aid  office  where 
the  mechanics  of  writing  the 
award  letter  and  assinging  the 
pre-set  amount  of  money  is 
completed. 

The  ranking  system  is  based 
on  a  scale  of  one  through  six, 
which  ranges  from  the  highest 
scholarship  amount  a  student 
can  receive  to  the  lowest.  For 
example,  the  highest  scholar- 


ship awarded  by  OU  is  the 
■  James  Edward  Oglethorpe 
s(  holarship.  A  student  being 
considered  for  this  scholarship 
would  be  designated  a  one.  The 
reason  for  the  ranking  system 
is  so  that  the  members  of  the 
Admissions  committee  do  not 
have  to  deal  with  monetary 
amounts  when  determining  ihie 
worth  of  a  student.  The  criteria 
for  awarding  a  grant  can  be 
either  academic  or  need  based. 
There  are  several  types  of 
grants  involved  in  the  finamclal 
aid  process.  One  is  the  Georgia 
Tuition  Equalization  Grant. 
Another  type  of  grant  is  the 
Oglethorpe  Grant  which  is  a 
need  based  grant.  Students 
can  also  get  aid  in  the  form  of 
a  Federal  Grant. 

According  to  the  Admissions 
office,  the  admissions  process 
at  Oglethorpe  University  is 
needs-blind.  This  means  that 
the  admissions  committee  docs 
not  consider  the  financial  sta- 
tus of  an  applicant  when  deter- 
mining admission  to  the  uni- 
\'ersity.

jimply  ridiculous  that  the  per-

sarily the  case,  and  not  that  we 
dislike  the  movie  crews  and  the 
notoriety  that  the  school 
receives;  they  just  should  not 
be  catered  to  in  lieu  of  the  aca- 
demics. 

So  what  is  the  result  of  all 
this?  Perspective  students  are 
given  first  class  treatment,  but 
once  enrolled  they  realize  that 
this  is  only  a  recruiting  tech- 
nique, not  a  slice  of  everyday 
life  at  Oglethorpe.  This  creates 
a  disillusionment  with  univer- 
sity life.  And  the  administra- 
tion wonders  why  the  retention 
rate  is  so  low.  This  university 
does  not  exist  to  provide  jobs 
for  philosophers,  higher  math- 
ematicians, presidents  and 
deans.  The  university,  as  a  tool 
of  the  highest  learning,  exists 
so  that  we  can  receive  a  quality 
education.  Unfortunately,  the 
false  pretext  given  to  perspec- 
tives and  others  about  life  at 


Oglethorpe  dislrai:t.s  Ihcin  hoiu 
their  academic  persults  and 
magnifies  the  problems  that 
naturally  exist  between  stu- 
dents and  the  administration. 

In  summation,  one  can 
receive  a  quality  education  at 
Oglethorpe,  but  in  doing  so.

Chapter  Six 

The  Petrels  spirit  and  determination  filled 
the  gym  with  lots  of  encouragement. 
Athletic  victory  is  a  great  achievement 
because  of  the  new  conference  tournament. 

All  through  the  year,  fans  were  thrilled. 

The  athletic  department  gained  two  new  sports 
They  added  basketball  to  women  in  the  fall 
and  in  the  spring,  after  13  years,  came  baseball. 
Both  were  new  teams,  so  they  started  out  small. 

But  they  will  be  strong,  Jack  Berkshire  reports. 

Team  support  from  students  was  outstanding 
Thus  the  volleyball  team  was  on  a  roll 
and  the  soccer  team  had  foot  control. 
While  the  tennis  players  were  great  on  the  whole. 

Participating  in  sports  can  be  quite  demanding. 

Through  our  spirited  virtues  we  have  spoken, 

that  our  teams  are  made  of  steel 

because  the  Petrels  played  with  zeal 

With  all  the  energy  of  an  electric  eel. 
Time  has  shown,  our  Petrel  spirit  cannot  be  broken.

AltJiough  Jerry  Jerome,  who  is  called  the  "Enforcer"  by 
Coach  Teach,  only  played  OU  soccer  for  two  years,  he  made 
a  lasting  impression.  Jerry  "set  a  standard  for  the  team  in 
training  and  games  of  work  ethic,  discipline,  and  pride." 
Jerry,  a  two  year  starter,  showed  a  lot  of  courage  after  com-

were  "a  great  group  of  guys  to  play  with."  Jerry's  most  valu- 
able characteristic  as  a  player  is  that  he  understands  what 
he  cannot  do.  In  other  words,  he  leaves  the  dribbling  to  the 
quick  litUe  guys  and  contributes  in  the  other  areas.  Jerry's 
leadership  and  strength  will  be  missed  next  year,  but  he  is 
confident  that  the  Petrels  will  have  winning  seasons  from 
now  on.

Young 


team  proves  strong. 


"The  freshmen  did  a  fabu- 
lous job  stepping;  into  the  roles 
and  playing  like  Juniors  and 
Seniors,"  senior  Jerry  Jerome 
said  of  the  nine  freshmen  who 
joined  the  1991  OU  soeecr 
team. 

This  season  was  Brett 
Teach's  second  year  coaching 
men's  soccer  at  Oglethorpe.  He 
has  made  a  big  impact  on  the 
program.  This  year,  for  the 
first  time,  the  men  were  able  to 
be  competitive  with  the  likes  of 
Emory  and  Berry  and  to  beat 
Millsaps  for  the  first  time  in  a 
while. 

One  of  the  most  exciting 
games  was  at  Emory  Universi- 
ty where  the  guys  were  tied  2 


all  with  20  minutes  left  and 
had  a  chance  of  winning.  The 
Petrels  put  forth  a  valiant  efrort 
and  despite  a  few  key  injuries, 
finished  second  in  the  match. 

Because  the  team  was  so 
young,  their  success  next  year 
depends  on  —  if  they  work 
hard  and  work  together  —  and 
if  they  pass  on  their  bonding 
experience  to  the  incoming 
freshmen  —  then  they  should 
continue  to  improve  and 
remain  competitive.  The  final 
standing  of  the  team  was  eight 
wins  and  ten  losses. 

If  only  Pizza  Hut  would 
serve  nice,  then  everything 
would  be  happy  on  road  trips!!

TEAMWORK 


makes  the  difference. 


Defense!  Midfielder  Amy  Baker  rushes  to  defend  against  a  Millsaps  opponent. 


With  six  freshman,  six 
returning  players,  and  only 
three  upperclassmen,  this 
year's  Women's  Soccer  Team 
was  a  very  young  squad.  All  of 
the  members  of  the  original 
club  team  have  graduated, 
thus  the  team  was  a  combina- 
tion of  just  two  recruiting 
classes  and  a  few  walk-ons. 
Because  of  this,  working 
together  as  a  team  was  very 
important  for  the  Lady  Petrels 
this  season. 

Between  long  practices,  road 
trips,  and  six  am  runs  on  the 
baseball  field,  the  individual 
players  slowly  began  to  come 
together  as  a  team.  They  knew 
it  would  be  a  lot  of  work,  so 
the  members  put  their  best 
into  almost  every  practice.  But 
members  of  any  team  sport 
at    OU    are    considered 


student/athletes.  This  means 
that  school  work  had  first  pri- 
ority and  would  account  for  the 
missed  practices. 

One  game  that  really  helped 
pull  the  team  closer,  was 
against  Centre  College.  The 
Petrels  needed  a  win  to  get  a 
place  in  the  conference  tourna- 
ment, and  the  score  was  tied  at 
zero  after  regulation  and  over- 
time. Michelle  Ponte,  Amy 
Baker,  and  Shelley  Robinson 
scored  on  penalty  kicks  to  lead 
the  team  to  a  victory. 

Coach  Brett  Teach  said,  "I 
really  don't  think  the  final 
record  reflects  the  improve- 
ment of  the  team."  By  the  end 
of  the  season,  the  Lady  Petrels 
were  starting  to  turn  some 
heads  in  the  conference,  and 
they  should  be  a  team  to  rekon 
with  ne.xt  season."

in  the  area  of  soccer.  This  year  she  won  the  Most  Valuable 
Player  award  for  soccer  at  the  fall  sports  banquet,  and  was 
honored  by  the  conference  by  being  chosen  for  the  ail-con-

soccer  field.  She  took  ail  of  the  free  kicks  for  the  team,  smd 
even  scored  on  several  attempts,  and  her  position  of  sweeper 
is  one  of  the  most  Important  on  the  field.  As  co-captain  Kll-

Wilh  a  final  rerord  of  10-2. 
Coach  Unger  was  very  satisfied 
wilh  the  team's  pcrfomiaiice 

Most  of  last  year's  members 
were  able  to  return  to  provide 
leadership  for  the  entering 
freshmen  and  those  unfamiliar 
to  cross  country  here  at 
Oglethorpe.  Senior  Kate  Baker 
had  a  very  strong  senior  year 
and  finished  at  the  top  of  the 
team  throught  the  season.  Along 
with  Kate  Baker,  freshman 
Katie  Farrell  also  finished  at  the 
head  of  the  pack  consistently. 

Coach  Bob  Unger  could  not 
have  asked  for  a  stronger 
season.  The  team  really  pulled 
together  at  the  South/ 
Soutfieast  Regional  NCAA  Meet 


HI  Newport  Neva's,  Virgiiiia  to 
finish  12th  overall.  'I"hls  was  a 
big  boost  to  the  leant.  Katie 
[•"arrell  was  also  honored  at  this 
meet  by  being  chosen  to  the 
NCAA  All  Conference  team. 

The  team  deser\'ed  a  lot  of 
recognition  due  to  their 
outstanding  performance 
throughout  the  season.  The 
team  placed  first  in  the  Atlanta 
All-Star  Classic  Invitational. 
During  the  Oglethorpe 
Inxntational,  the  women  took  a 
strong  second.  They  also  took 
second  place  at  the  Covenant 
Invitational.  Finally,  they  had  a 
strong  second.  They  also  took 
second  place  at  the  large  West 
Georgia  Invitational.  A  great 
season!  Congratulations  OU

TAKIN' 


it  to  the  limit! 


Finishing  strong.  Junior  Robbie 
McGuigan  crosses  the  line  after  having 
finished  a  hard  race  at  home.  Soon  after 


the  race.  Robbie  will  discover  what  it  i 
on  the  clipboard  that  is  keeping  Coacl 
Unger  so  occupied. 


The  men's  cross  country 
team  also  finished  the  season 
with  a  very  good  record  of  10- 
1 .  Their  only  loss  was  to  Mer- 
cer and  that  meet  was  a  heart 
breaker  because  the  team  only 
lost  by  three  points.  Like 
Coach  Unger  said.  "That 
hurts." 

Besides  this  one  meet,  the 
team  had  absolutely  nothing  to 
complain  about.  The  season 
was  great  and  ended  with  a 
eight  meet  winning  streak. 

The  team  has  a  lot  of  young 
talent  and  has  much  to  look 
forward  to  in  the  years  to 
come.  The  team's  only  senior, 
Robert  Canavan,  will  leave 
after  having  competed  for 
Oglethorpe  for  the  last  four 
years.  Will  Corum,  Robbie 
McGuigan,  and  Beau  Lyons 


added  greatly  to  the  team's 
success  with  their  determina- 
tion and  skill. 

The  team  had  many  suc- 
cesses this  season  including 
their  first  place  finish  at  the 
Covenant  Invitational.  They 
also  earned  a  strong  second 
place  in  the  Atlanta  All-Star 
Classic  Invitational.  Perhaps 
the  biggest  victory  for  the  team 
was  in  Newport  News,  Virginia 
when  they  finished  8th  out  of 
twenty  four  hard  teams.  At  this 
meet  Beau  Lyons  received  the 
honor  of  NCAA  All-Conference. 
Coach  Unger  called  this 
"Oglethorpe's  finest  perfor- 
mance in  recent  memory." 
Needless-to-say,  he  was  very 
satisfied  with  the  final  record 
of  the  season.  Good  work!

Robert  was  also  chosen  to  be  the  Most  Vjiluable  Player  dur-

When  asked  what  he  thought  about  running.  Robert 
said.  "I  run  for  the  feeling  tt  gives  me.  not  for  any  merits  1

Tracy  Larson  has  been  a  member  of  the  Lady  Stormy  Petrel 
Volleyball  Team  for  four  years.  In  fact,  she  has  been  playing  vol- 
leyball since  she  was  in  the  7th  grade.  Taking  advantage  of  her 
short  height,  she  played  back-row  defense  using  her  well-trained 
technique  of  digging  to  save  the  ball  and  the  team  from  losing  a 


point.  She

Tracy  Larson  is  a  perfectionist  who  is  always  on  her  toes. 
Besides  working  as  a  security  guard  and  majoring  in  Business

What  kept  these  ladies 
motivated  and  determines  to  go 
to  practice  was  the  new  coach 
—  Brenda  Hilman.  "Coach 
Brenda  is  knowledgeable  about 
the  sport  and  hardwork- 
ing. She  is  also  very  under- 
standing, spirited,  and  a  great 
motivator,"  said  Tracy  Larson. 

This  year  most  of  the 
volleyball  players  were 
freshmen,  but  they  showed  a 
lot  of  potential  and  great  skill 
for  their  first  season.  In  fact, 
they  showed  such  capabilities 
with  a  final  standing  of  26

stretching  High.  Cole  Maddox  of 
Chi  Phi  successfully  intercepts  the 


volleyball  and  spikes  it  back  over  to  h 
opponents. 


A  bored,  antsy  student  sat 
around  his  dorm  room  on  a 
school  night  unattentively 
flipping  the  television  channels. 
He  found  a  rerun  that  he  hadn't 
seen  and  plopped  down  with 
some  potato  chips  &  Pop.  He 
anticipated  another  dull 
weekday  evening. 

Then  the  phone  rang.  A 
friend  called  to  remind  him  that 
the  field  house  was  "open."  He 
then  became  one  of  the  many 
students  who  took  advantage  of 
intramurals. 

The  intramural  volleyball 
season  was  successful:  student 
participation  was  one  of  the 
best.  The  tournament 
champions  for  the  men  was  the 


Pi  Kappa:  Tree  Trunks  for  the 
women. 

The  flag  football  season 
contests  consisted  of  a  double 
round  robin  schedule  with  ever>' 
team  playing  each  other  twice. 
There  was  a  three  way  tie  for 
first  place  in  the  men's  league 
with  Delta  Sig,  SAE  and  the 
Soupbones  all  with  a  record  of 
8-2.  KA  finished  4th  with  a  3-7 
record,  Marga's  perfume  was 
5th  at  2-8  &  Chi  Phi  6th  with 
1-9.  The  women's  league 
champion  was  the  Tree  trunks 
with  a  5-1  record.  Tri  Sigma 
was  2nd  at  4-2:  APO  was  3rd: 
and  Chi  Omega  finished  6th. 
The  Tree  Trtmks  were  also  the 
tournament  champions.

T 


his  was  Ogk-thorpe'b 
first  year  in  the 
SCAC  and  Head 
Coach  Dunn  Nuege- 
bant-r  knew  he  had  quite  a 
task  in  building  a  competitive 
program.  "We're  two  to  three 
years  away  right  now."  he  said 
in  his  1992  season  outlook 
and  added  "We're  just  looking 
to  build  a  strong  foundation 
this  season  and  get  headed  in 
the  right  direction."  The 
women's  team  proved  to  be 
headed  in  the  right  direction: 
they  won  4  matches  this  sea- 


son which  IS  great  corii[jan-(i  trj 
last  season's  1  win. 

Playing  with  mostly  fresh- 
men and  sophomore,  the 
women  were  competitive  in  the 
tough  SCAC  conference  and 
improved  as  the  season  pro- 
gressed. Winning  four  match- 
es, the  women  also  lost  three 
close  5-4  contests.  Freshmen 
Penny  Brandt.  Susan  Poston. 
Julie  Martin  and  Lori  Green 
were  major  contributors,  while 
returners  Melissa  Lamar  and 
Rebecca  Thompson  played  a 
big  role.

Men's  season 


ends  winning  six. 


The     men's     tennis 
team  doubled  their 
win  production  from 
the  season  before. 
During  the  1992  spring  sea- 
son, the  men  won  6  matches; 
while  they  only  won  3  last 
year. 

The  returning  players  were 
Tim  Evans,  who  played  the 
number  two  position.  Robbie 
Romeiser,  in  the  number  one 
position,  and  Trung  Vo.  Fresh- 


men Mark  Krabousanas,  Erik 
Dilts,  sophomore  Justin  Hayes 
and  senior  Jeff  Whitehead  also 
played  consistently. 

Head  Coach  Dunn  Neuge- 
bauer,  who  completed  his  first 
year  at  Oglethorpe  this  season, 
commented  on  the  men's  over- 
all performance:  "This  group  of 
over  achievers'  won  6  matches, 
though  the  preseason  predic- 
tion had  the  winning  none."

basketball  team  in  November, 
he  had  plenty  of  reason  to 
worry.  The  men  only  had  two 
returning  starters.  But  regard- 
less of  youth  and  inexperience, 
the  squad  did  win  games  and 
established  respect  in  its  first 
year  in  the  Southern  Collegiate 
Athletic  Conference.  The  men 
finished  the  season  at  16-9  and 
at  one  time,  Berkshire's  bunch 
was  leading  the  nation,  in  all 
three  divisions,  in  3-point  shoot- 
ing and  was  among  the  top  in 
field  goal  percentage. 

Berkshire  was  blessed  with 
sharp  shooting  guards,  as 
senior    Tom    Brambley    and 


■soplKjiiiorc  liriau  KiHj>iiis  Ijtjth 
hit  over  40  percent  from  the  3- 
point  range.  Four  players  aver- 
aged in  double  figures,  including 
Brambley  (13.  6  ppg).  Riggins 
(13.  2),  sophomore  center  Brian 
Davis  (10.  8)  and  senior  David 
Fischer  (11.  1).  Fischer  and 
Brambley  were  the  two  return- 
ers with  experience  and  both 
effectively  played  their  roles  in 
performance  and  leadership. 
Besides  scoring,  Brambley  led 
the  team  in  steals  and  free 
throw  percentage.  Fischer  was 
the  team's  leading  rebounder 
with  8.  9  per  game,  shot  46  per- 
cent from  the  field  and  over  80 
percent  from  the  foul  line.  Fis- 
cher also  was  named  to  the  GTE 
All-South  Academic  Team,  (con-

(continued  from  page  164) 

Besides  these  four,  Berk- 
shire had  several  players  step 
in  and  make  and  impact, 
including  freshmen  Greg  Bar- 
ber, Cornell  Longino  and  Andy 
Schutt.  Barber  led  the  team  in 
assists  and  played  the  point 
guard  slot.  Longino  was  an 
excellent  offensive  player  with 
exceptional  quickness  and 
Schutt  led  the  team  in  field 
goal  percentage  (61.2  percent) 
and  came  off  the  bench  to  spell 
Fischer  and  Davis  inside. 

Berkshire  developed  his 
other  young  players  quickly, 
using  freshmen  Shane  Strick- 
land and  Matt  Schlabs  in  the 
back  court  and  Kevin  Carlisle 
at  forward. 

A    big    highlight    for    the 


Petrels  this  season  was  captur- 
ing their  second  consecutive 
Stormy  Petrel  Classic  Tourna- 
ment. Riggins  earned  tourney 
MVP  honors,  while  Fischer  and 
Brambley  were  named  to  the 
All-Toumament  Team. 

Overtime  losses  at  home  to 
conference  champion  Centre 
and  runner-up  Rhodes  kept 
the  Petrels  out  of  the  race  for 
the  championship,  but  it  was 
evident  that  they  were  competi- 
tive in  their  new  conference; 
they  tied  for  fourth  place.  "I 
have  never  played  this  many 
freshmen  and  sophomores," 
stated  Berkshire.  'To  continue 
our  winning  tradition  while 
doing  so  is  a  positive  sign  and 
an  indication  of  exciting  sea- 
sons ahead!"  -D.  Neugebauer

at  5-19.  Three  of

against  conference  foes,  and 
the  women  surpassed  the  pre- 
season polls  easily. 

"We  haven't  played  anybody 
on  our  schedule  with  near  the 
team  we  have."  Coach  Brenda 
Hillman  said.  "Basically,  we've 
had  to  make  the  transition 
from  high  school  to  college  bas- 
ketball on  the  court." 

And  they've  done  it  well! 
"Hillman  and  Company"  won 
their  first  game  ever,  a  1 0  point 
victory  over  Agnes  Scott  and 
also  wins  over  Fisk  and  Trinity.

MESH  and  the  Bad 
Boys  were  de- 
clared co-champi- 
ons in  the  Divi- 
sion II  Intramural  Basketball 
Championship,  after  the  score- 
keeper  made  a  game-altering 
mistake.  With  just  over  fifty 
seconds  to  go  in  the  game. 
MESH  sunk  two  free-throws, 
but  the  score  keeper  notched 
one  point  for  each  team.  The 
mistake  went  unnoticed  and 
the  Bad  Boys  brought  the  ball 
down  the  court.  "1  got  the  ball 
with  46  seconds  and  the  score- 
board said  we  were  down  by 
one,"  said  Bad  Boy  leading 
scorer  Kevin  Henderson.  He 
went  on  to  explain  that  the 
Bad  Boys  wasted  over  thirty 
seconds  before  sinking  a  bas- 


ket to  put  them  "in  the  lead." 
MESH  raced  down  the  court 
and  Mike  Chambers  got  fouled 
with  eight  seconds  to  go.  He 
missed  both  his  free  throws 
and  the  Bad  Boys  killed  the 
remaining  time.  "It  wouldn't  be 
fair  to  give  them  the  champi- 
onship after  we  killed  the 
clock."  said  Henderson,  "but  it 
wouldn't  be  fair  to  give  it  to  us 
either.  They  did  score  more 
points  than  us."  The  Bad  Boys 
knocked  out  UGPB  in  the  first 
round  and  edged  PSD  in  the 
second,  before  facing  MESH 
who  ousted  Chi  Phi  for  the

Baseball's 


comeback  is  strong. 


A  a  wc  begin  a  new  era 
of  baseball  at 
Ofilelhorpe.  we  must 
understand  that  a 
new  program  means  a  very 
young  and  inexperienced  team 
competing  against  the  best 
teams  that  tJie  NCAA  Division 
III  has  to  offer.  Under  the 
direction  of  Pete  Meyer,  the 
Stormy  Petrels  faced  stiff  com- 
petition from  many  outstand- 
ing programs  Including  the 
1989  National  Champions. 
North  Carolina,  Wesleyan,  and 
Methodist.  It  should  be  noted 
that  of  the  36  games,  32  were 
played  on  Anderson  Field. 

The  Petrels  ended  their  his- 
toric season  with  a  23-14 
record.  They  also  finished  third 
in  the  conference  East  Division 


with  a  9-0  record,  which  gave 
the  the  best  overall  record  In 
the  Southern  Collegiate  Athlet- 
ic Conference. 

One  of  the  season's  high- 
lights was  a  conference  sweep 
of  a  three  game  series  with 
Centre  College.  In  the  first 
game  the  Petrels  came  back 
from  a  shakey  start  to  win. 
With  the  help  of  Tommy  Gam- 
bino  who  drove  in  the  winning 
run  in  the  bottom  of  the  sev- 
enth inning  to  win  3-2.  In  the 
second  game,  Jimmy  Moccio 
drove  in  the  winning  runs  in 
the  bottom  of  the  sixth  to  win 
8-6.  And  in  the  third  .  Matt 
Weiner  hit  a  two  run  homer  in 
the  bottom  of  the  sixth  to  win 
3-2.  The  pitching  staff  was  the

played  key  roles  were  senior 
Jeff  Whitney,  freshmen  Neal 
Bryant  and  LHP  Mike  Thomas. 

In  the  catcher's  position, 
freshmen  Ward  Jones  was  the 
leading  candidate  with  Jason 
Gray  and  Randy  Hawks  vying 
for  time.  Lenz  was  also  an  out- 
standing catcher. 

Tlie  infield  seemed  to  be  the 
Petrels  strong  suit.  Sophomore 
Tony  Cooper  saw  action  at 
both  3B  and  shortstop  while 
freshmen  Tommy  Gambino 


saw  time  at  short  and  28  and 
Jay  Folds  at  2B  and  3B.  Mike 
Thomas  held  down  the  IB  job 
when  not  on  the  mound. 

The  outfield  was  solid  with 
freshmen  Jimmy  Moccio  in 
center.  Chris  Warren  in  right 
and  Weiner  in  left.  Junior 
Jamie  Grambling  and  Will 
Lukow  also  played  outfield.

Cheerleaders 


change  with  the  times. 


im  Digenerro.  a  first 

Tyear  cheerleader  com- 
ments about  the  squad 
and  his  experience:  "I 
enjoy  it  personally  and  believe 
it  or  not,  it's  a  lot  harder  that  it 
looks."  he  adds  "My  friends  kid 
me  about  it;  they  think  I'm 
only  it  it  because  of  the  girls." 
This  typical  stereo  type  of  male 
cheerleaders  didn't  seem  to 
phase  the  eight  guys  who  par- 
ticipated. Some  people  may 
think  that  male  cheerleaders 
are  sissys,  but  in  reality,  it 
takes  a  lot  of  strength,  balance 


and  timing  to  be  capable  of  lift- 
ing girls  above  your  head. 
Some  of  the  stunts  they  per- 
formed were  the  basket-toss, 
the  throw  chair  and  the  torch. 

In  preparation  for  Home- 
coming, they  practiced  5  days 
a  week  for  about  3  hours;  com- 
ing up  with  new  and  original 
stunts.  At  the  end  of  the  week 
Tim  was  sore,  but  he  said  that 
cheering  "limbered  him  up."
