Oglethorpe  is  intimacy. 
Oglethorpe  is  blurred  bound- 
aries. Dunn  Neugebauer  is 
Oglethorpe.  Dunn's  closeness  to 
his  players  and  his  integral  role 
in  campus  community  blur  the 
boundaries  between  coach  and 
player,  teacher  and  student.  As 
guide  and  friend,  as  boost  or 
crutch,  as  flirt  or  confidant,  for 
the  past  five  years  Dunn  has 
brought  enthusiasm  and  passion 
to  everything  he  has  done  for 
Oglethorpe.  In  addition  to 
coaching  tennis  Dunn  goes  the 
extra  miles  to  help  with  basket- 
ball and  soccer,  announcing 
starters  at  home  and  traveling 
by  planes,  trains  (MARTA).  and 
minivans  to  keep  stats  on  the 
road.  Dunn  is  a  columnist  who 
cannot  be  captured  in  print.  He 
is  a  disc  jockey  who  broadcasts 
love  even  when  the  WJTL 
transmitter  is  down.  Like  the 
crosswords  he  is  fond  of,  Dunn 
is  a  puzzle:  a  grown  man  who 
lives  in  a  dorm  and  eats  cafete- 
ria food  with  college  kids  vol- 
untarily.

Left:  Life.  A 
long  passage 
with  some 
beautiful  things 
to  look  at  and 
ponder. 
However,  the 
Oglethorpe 
Museum 
misleads  us. 
The  end  of  our 
means  is  not  the 
Buddha  himself, 
but  the 

enlightenment 
he  found  and  the 
release  from  the 
circle  of  life. 


An  anomaly  is  something  un- 
usual, peculiar,  different.  In  this 
edition  of  iheVamac raw,  the 
staff  wishes  to  feature  the 
anomalies  of  Oglethorpe  which 
give  the  University  its  charac- 
ter. Each  day  in  class  we  en- 
counter questions.  Some  have 
concrete  answers;  others  only 
have  theories  attached  to  them: 
most  we  are  left  to  ponder.  In 
pondering  the  character  of 
Oglethorpe,  many  questions 
arise:  Who  named  the  Ho  Chi 
Minh  Trail?  Is  there  an  elevator 
in  Goslin?  If  Dr.  Neujahr 
knows  the  meaning  of  life,  why 
won't  he  tell  us  what  it  is?  \Vh\ 
do  athletes  sit  on  the  left  side  of 
the  cafeteria?  Are  the  academic 
quad  and  upper  quad  actually 
quadrangles?  In  this  yearbook, 
you  may  fmd  an  answer  to 
these  questions:  for  some  you 
may  find  only  theories.  Most, 
however,  you  will  be  left  to 

ponder.

We  may  take  strength  from  the 
gray  stone,  but  men  and  women 
have  invested  the  might  in  the 
mortar.  Before  a  school  was 
named  Oglethoipe,  a  man  was 
named  James  Edward.  Before  a 
building  was  named  Hearst,  a 
woman  was  named  Phoebe. 
Before  a  road  was  named 
Lanier,  a  man  was  named 
Sidney.  Like  the  Pattillo  Oak, 
Oglethoipe's  roots  continue  to 
grow  deeper  as  her  branches 
reach  higher.  Each  Petrel  has 
the  opportunity  to  define  what 
Oglethorpe  is,  and  what 
Oglethoipe  will  be.  Like 
Hermance  Stadium.  Oglethoipe 
is  beautifully  incomplete,  a 
monument  to  ambition,  impedi- 
ment, and  adaptation.  Class 
after  class  adds  its  own  chapter 
to  Oglethorpe  lore  and  legend. 
Three  hundred  years  have 
passed  since  the  birth  of  Gen- 
eral Oglethorpe.  Over  a  century 
and  a  half  have  passed  since 
Oglethorpe  University's  birth  in 
Midway.  As  Oglethoipe  ap- 
proaches a  new  millennuim  in 
Atlanta,  she  flies  teeth  to  the 
winds  of  a  volatile  world  with 
resolve  in  her  breast  and  a 
proud  past  at  her  back.

Question: 

Why  is  Oglethorpe  an  Anomaly? 


"If  a  school  with  such  a 
large  number  of  tattooed  bodies 
and  pierced  clitori  along  with 
courses  like  Great  Ideas  in 
Modern  Mathematics  is  not  an 
anomaly,  I  don't  know  what  is." 


SteA^Af/vCe  Qxte/i  JolXi\/e\  V/iltiAa^ 


"What  other  school  would 
pay  you  $5-an-hour  to  watch  a 
gate?  If  I  weren't  here  I 
wouldn't  get  the  experience  of 
being  a  human  watch  dog.  It's 
a  fascinating  place  to  be." 


^^C^         t]f^-H-^^ 


"I  think  it's  just  great  that 
we  have  so  many  people  doing 
'their  own  thing'  on  campus. 
Thank  goodness  Petrels  are  not 
satisfied  with  normalcy.  If 
prospective  students  want  to  do 
things  by  the  book,  they  needn't 
bother  coming  to  Oglethorpe."

Jamie's  corpse  in 
Cranham  decayed  long  ago.  but 
no  worm  can  claim  nor  com-

Opal's  wrathful  winds  and  rain 
could  not  quench  three  hundred 
resilient  cake  candles.  While 
Atlanta  was  conquering  Cleve- 
land in  a  savage  contest, 
Oglethorpe  was  nobly  topping 
the  nation  in  table  football. 
MARTA  cartographers  and 
Honduran  carvers  marked 
Oglethoipe's  prominence  with 
timeless  strokes.  When  the 
world  detrains  at  a  stop  named 
OU  we  will  welcome  it  with

What  is  so  anomalous 
about  1996?

tity, even  if  Olympik  never

Oglethorpe  University  is 
a  1 00-acre  farm  of  mental 
cultivation  where  well  devel- 
oped people  are  the  desired 
crop.  Straight,  well-organized 
rows  of  geeks,  freaks,  greeks, 
and  athletes  have  all  been  sown 
with  the  seeds  of  commonality 
and  friendship.  These  rows  all 
receive  the  daily  sunshine  of 
comraderie  and  the  periodic 
watering  of  academic  rigor. 
Events  such  as  Geek  Week, 
Stomp  the  Lawn.  Greek  Week, 
and  athletic  contests  act  as 
fertilizer,  enriching  the  soil 
which  holds  and  nurtures  com- 
munal roots.  With  this  mixture 
of  sunlight,  water,  and  nutri- 
ents, the  individual  grows 
strong  with  time.  Soon  the 
field  is  teeming  with  vigorous 
individuals  each  striving  to  be 
his  personal  best.  This  commu- 
nity of  various  living  creatures, 
growing  and  attaining  their 
lives'  goals  while  at  the  same 
time  affecting  the  lives  of  those 
around  them,  is  truly  flourish- 
ing. We  find  that,  upon  reach- 
ing full  maturation,  these  indi- 
vidual rows  have  disappeared 
and  all  that  is  left  is  a  solid  field 
of  brilliant,  lively  green:  our 
Oglethorpe  University  commu- 
nity.

exemplified  by  Alumni  14. 


'C^i/yh^ 


The  dorm  room  is  a  fundamen- 
tal element  of  the  college  expe- 
rience. Warmth  and  comfort 
play  no  part  in  the  charm  of 
dorm  life.  Power  outages, 
cockroaches,  cold  water,  flood- 
ing, cramped  quarters— these 
are  what  we  enjoy.  They  instill 
a  sense  of  community  among 
the  residents.  The  suite-style 
buildings  are  designed  to  re- 
semble apartments,  and  they 
come  dangerously  close  to 
removing  the  community  ele- 
ment which  defines  the  dormi- 
tory. Fortunateh'.  we  have 
paper-thin  walls  so  that  our 
conversations  (particularly  in 
upper-quad  bathrooms),  are  not 
completely  pri\"ate.  Thanks  to 
these  walls,  the  residents  are 
also  able  to  share  their  musical 
preferences  with  their  neigh- 
bors, thus  enriching  the  connec- 
tion.  And  just  in  case  the  com- 
munity spirit  begins  to  topple, 
nothing  replenishes  the  spirit  of 
dorm  living  like  a  nice  fire  drill 
at  two  in  the  morning.  Yes.  this 
is  the  life  we  have  come  to 
love,  the  land  where  roaches 
are  not  afraid  to  charge,  show- 
ers are  too  small  to  shave  your 
legs,  and  RAs  try  in  \  ain  to 
keep  men  out  or  Traer.  In  domi 
life,  suffering  is  the  one.  lasting 

charm.

Most  students  are  famil- 
iar with  basic  rules  of  etiquette 
by  the  time  they  enter  college, 
but  upon  arriving  at 
Oglethorpe,  they  must  learn 
new  rules  which  apply  only  to 
the  Oglethorpe  dining  hall.  As 
freshmen,  all  students  automati- 
cally take  trays,  but  after  only  a 
few  weeks,  most  women  forego 
the  tray  and  make  separate  trips 
later  for  salad  or  dessert.  This 
aids  efforts  to  fit  far  too  many 
people  at  one  table,  because 
trays  take  up  so  much  room. 
Seating  being  the  most  impor- 
tant element  of  dining  hall 
etiquette,  one  selects  a  table 
based  on  the  design  of  the  table 
itself,  and  on  the  table's  loca- 
tion. Pedestal-style  tables  are  in 
great  demand  owing  to  their 
vast  seating  capacity,  while 
those  with  the  troublesome 
knee-level  bars  underneath  are 
to  be  avoided.  As  for  location, 
certain  social  groups  always  sit 
in  the  same  area  of  the  cafeteria 
(see  diagram).  Most  students 
are  monogamous  in  their  seat- 
ing preferences,  but  some  stu- 
dents refuse  to  submit  to  a 
seating  label,  and  join  different 
groups  at  different  meals. 
Oglethorpian  culture,  you  see, 
revolves  around  dining  hall 
etiquette.

Atlantans  don't  usually  worry  about  Hurri- 
cane season,  but  this  fall  Hurricane  Opal  chal- 
lenged their  sense  of  security.  The  storm  hit  in 
the  middle  of  the  night.  At  first  the  howling  of 
the  wind  merely  made  it  difficult  to  sleep,  but  as 
the  storm  worsened,  the  power  went  out.  win- 
dows began  to  rattle,  and  trees  started  to  fall. 
Security  told  many  of  the  Greek  residents  to  go 
to  the  upper  quad  because  so  many  trees  were 
falling  behind  the  houses.  Meanwhile,  on  the 
upper  quad,  students  had  found  an  opportunity  to 
party.  A  fair  number  of  students  gathered  in  the 


quad  in  the  middle  of  the  storm.  Every  time  a 
large  gust  of  wind  roared  through  the  quad,  they 
screamed. 

The  next  morning  revealed  many  fallen 
trees  and  some  structural  damage,  but  the  prob- 
lem was  that  the  power  was  still  out.  Classes 
were  cancelled,  and  the  power  remained  out  for 
four  more  days.  Then  the  hot  water  went  out.  and 
life  on  campus  became  ugly.  The  dining  hall 
served  sparse  meals  by  candlelight,  so  many 
students  drove  down  to  Lenox,  which  had  elec- 
tricity and  hot  food.  But  hey,  we  survixed.

The  Night  of  the  Arts  is  an  opportunity  for 
students  and  faculty  to  share  their  gifts  in  the  arts 
with  the  Oglethorpe  community.  Favored  by 
students  are  Dr.  Taylor's  contributions  of  poetry 
and  songs.  Another  faculty  performance  revealedl 
that  Dr.  Orme  plays  the  piano  quite  brilliantly. 
The  Night  of  the  Arts  is  consistent  with 
Oglethorpe's  recognition  of  the  importance  of 
dance,  tune,  word,  and  song.  The  participation  of 
the  faculty  demonstrates  their  connection  to  the 
students  through  appreciation  of  the  arts  and  our 
liberal  tradition.

"Oglethorpe"  is  a  name— a  word  to  illus-

about  the  specific.  A  day  meant  to  commemorate 
the  shared  experience  and  ideals  of  our  commu-

February  26.  1996,  was  truly  a  high  water 
mark  on  the  sounding  hne  of  the  river  of  this 
year's  events.  The  excitement  sprung  forth  as 
students  gathered  together  in  pools  of  tailgaters. 
As  current  students  and  alumni  renewed  old 
friendships,  homecoming  excitement  began  to 
build.  Soon  to  crowds  flowed  into  the  basketball 
arena,  where  the  excitement  did  not  ebb  until  the 
last  second  had  ticked  off  the  game  clock. 

As  the  day  passed  by,  people  began  to 
prepare  for  the  Homecoming  dance  at  the 
Fernbank  Science  Museum.  Despite  some  initial 


problems  with  transportation,  the  dance  was 
eventually  under  way.  Almost  the  entire  student 
body  arrived  in  their  Sunday  best  and  read\  to 
celebrate  until  the  early  morning  hours.  Home- 
coming reached  a  fevered  pitch  when  Cathy 
Skinner  and  Kevin  Huitt  were  crowned  Lord 
and  Lady  Oglethorpe. 

After  consuming  all  of  the  fun  that  was  to 
be  had  at  Fernbank,  the  student  body  returned  to 
campus  and  continued  the  Homecoming  cel- 
ebration in  the  familiar  environment  inside  the 
Oglethorpe  gates.

Springfest  is  that  three  day  event  during 
which  prospective  students  flock  to  campus  to 
get  a  taste  of  what  Oglethorpe  is  never  really 
like.  During  Springfest  we  have  better  food  in 
the  dining  hall,  better  parties,  and  this  year,  we 
had  Drivin'  and  Cryin'  play  at  Stomp  the  Lawn.

The  following  is  an  excerpt  from  the  1996  Commencement  address  given  by  Sir  Keith  Thomas  PBA 
President  of  Corpus  Christi  College,  Oxford,  James  Edward  Oglethorpe's  honorary  alma  mater. 


I  suggest  that  what  we  should  remember  about 
General  Oglethorpe  on  this  occasion  is  that  he  was  the 
product  of  the  same  sort  of  liberal  education  which  you 
yourselves  have  enjoyed.  His  life  is  relevant  to  you 
because  it  shows  the  diverse  uses  to  which  a  liberal 
education  can  be  put. 

For  Oglethorpe  was  both  a  scholar  and  a  man  of 
action.  He  had  a  distinguished  military  career,  fighting 
with  the  Austrians  against  the  Turks  and  defending  Geor- 
gia against  the  Spaniards.  He  was  a  member  of  parliament 
for  over  thirty  years  and  a  social  reformer  who  exposed 
the  ghastly  conditions  in  the  gaols  where  people  were 
imprisoned  for  debt.  He  envisaged  Georgia  as  a  place 
where  well-to-do  debtors  (or  rather  debtors  who  had  once 
been  well-to-do)  might  start  a  new  life.  He  planned  it  as  a 
model  society,  though  I  am  afraid  that  it  did  not  entirely 
stay  that  way;  and  he  lived  to  see  the  colony  gain  its 
independence. 

During  this  very  active  life,  Oglethorpe  kept  up 
his  scholarly  interests.  He  read  widely  in  the  history  of 
the  ancient  Greeks  and  Romans,  which  he  had  studied  at 
Corpus.  He  spoke  French  and  German  and  wrote  polished 
Latin  verses.  He  was  a  Fellow  of  the  Royal  Society, 
England's  leading  scientific  academy;  he  helped  to  found 
the  British  Museum;  and  he  accumulated  a  splendid 
personal  library.  When  he  retired  from  public  life,  he 
spent  much  time  in  the  company  of  the  most  cultivated 
people  of  the  age.  like  Dr  Samuel  Johnson  and  his  biog- 
rapher James  Boswell:  the  writers.  Horace  Walpole  and 
Oliver  Goldsmith;  the  painter  Su-  Joshua  Reynolds;  and 
the  orator  Edmund  Burke. 

So  Oglethoipe's  liberal  education  made  a  great 
deal  possible  for  him  and  your  time  at  this  university  will 


do  the  same  for  you.  You  may  not  think  that  now,  but 
before  you  decide  too  quickly  that  Oglethorpe  Univer- 
sity made  no  difference  to  your  lives,  I  urge  you  to 
remember  what  the  Chinese  leader,  Chou-en-Lai,  said 
when  they  asked  him  what  he  thought  the  effect  of  the 
French  Revolution  had  been  on  world  history.  It  was,  hi 
said,  too  soon  to  tell. 

I  am  afraid  that  there  are  still  some  people  who 
donf  think  much  of  a  liberal  education.  They  say  of  the 
study  of  history  or  literature  that  it  merely  teaches  you  i 
despise  the  money  that  it  prevents  you  from  making.  In 
fact,  higher  education,  even  in  a  subject  like  history,  is  < 
good  thing  economically  and  helps  to  make  us  more 
prosperous.  But  that's  not  its  primary  purpose.  If  you 
chose  to  study  here  because  you  thought  it  would  help 
you  to  earn  more  money  later  you  did  the  right  thing, 
but  for  the  wrong  reasons.  You  are  like  the  man  who 
won  a  fortune  in  a  lottery  by  repeatedly  backing  the 
number  twenty-three.  When  they  asked  him  why  he  had 
chosen  twenty-three,  he  explained  that  he  had  a  dream. 
"I  dreamed  the  number  seven.  And  the  second  night,  I 
dreamed  the  number  seven.  And  the  third  night,  I 
dreamed  the  number  seven.  So  I  said,  this  must  mean 
something.  Three  sevens  are  twenty-three..." 

The  real  object  of  a  liberal  education  is  to  de- 
velop skills  and  attitudes  which  will  enrich  your  life. 
You  learn  to  inquire,  to  analyze  and  to  evaluate;  to  be 
aware  of  the  past,  of  different  societies,  of  how  things 
could  be  other  than  they  are.  A  liberal  education  is 
something  which  stays  with  us.  The  last  portrait  we  have 
of  Oglethorpe  shows  him  as  an  old  man  of  eighty-eight 
perusing  a  volume  at  the  sale  of  Dr  Johnson's  books, 
interested  in  learning  until  the  end.

At  its  best  Oglethorpe  is 
intimate  and  ambitious. 
Oglethorpe's  dramatic  perfor- 
mances reflect  the  best  of 
Oglethorpe  University.  No 
member  of  the  audience  is  far 
from  the  performers.  Directors 
and  performers  take  special 
pains  to  bring  the  Oglethorpe 
community,  as  well  as  the  many 
outside  advocates  of  the  arts 
that  frequent  many  of  the  per- 
formances, into  the  very  heart 
and  soul  which  is  Oglethorpe 
drama.  Only  a  school  based 
around  the  dramatic  ideals  of  a 
man  like  Thomwell  Jacobs  can 
truly  embrace  the  art  of  perfor- 
mance. Oglethorpe  does  em- 
brace this  art,  and  the  art  com- 
munity, in  turn,  embraces 
Oglethorpe.  Senior  Michael 
Billingsley  puts  it  best  when  he 
says,  "No  school  is  an  island, 
but  with  the  shows  that  our 
drama  department  puts  to- 
gether, if  Oglethorpe  were  an 
island,  I  wouldn't  mind  being 
stranded  there  one  bit."

Not  pedagogues  in  ivory 
towers  or  lecturers  droning  before 
seas  of  unfamiliar  faces,  the 
Oglethorpe  faculty  are  individu- 
als we  know,  advisors  to  whom 
we  listen,  and  intellectuals  from 
whom  we  draw  inspiration.  The 
third  floors  of  Hearst  and  Lupton, 
and  the  second  floor  of  Goslin 
contain  the  peculiar  havens  of 
these  personalities— the  faculty 
offices.  The  name  plates  on  the 
doors  read  like  a  list  of  class- 
mates. Some  names  are  only 
vaguely  familiar,  others  conjure 
memories  of  core  classes  fresh- 
man year.  Every  once  in  a  while, 
though,  the  name  is  of  a  good 
friend,  and  the  doorway  beckons. 
Passing  through  it  into  the  office, 
you  find  yourself  surrounded  by 
countless  volumes  of  works 
crammed  onto  inadequate  shelv- 
ing. You  may  be  there  to  discuss 
an  assignment  or  an  internship,  or 
to  ask  for  an  extension,  but  you 
would  feel  just  as  comfortable 
dropping  by  to  chat. 

The  Oglethoipe  faculty 
humanizes  the  college  experi- 
ence. Students  try  not  to  miss 
class,  not  just  because  they  need 
the  notes,  but  because  the  profes- 
sors will  notice  they  are  gone.  As 
mentors  and  friends,  the  faculty 
teach  us  to  think,  to  write,  and  to 
work.  Although  as  time  passes 
our  names  and  faces  may  be 
slowly  forgotten,  theirs  surely 
will  not.  The  influence  they  have 
had  on  us  has  shaped  who  we  are.

What's  anomalous  about  the  Oglethorpe  University 
English  department?  Hmmmm... maybe  EVERY- 
THING? It's  a  well-known  fact  that  our  English  depart- 
ment-the  professors,  the  courses,  the  students-are,  well, 
kind  of  different  from  the  other  departments  here  at 
Oglethorpe.  So  what  is  it  that  makes  them  so  different? 
To  fmd  out  the  truth,  we  went  to  those  who  should  know 
best-the  English  majors.  We  begged  them  to  let  every- 
one in  on  the  secret  by  sharing  just  a  drop  of  their  ever- 
flowing  creative  juices.  Their  task:  to  describe  the 
English  Department  in  one  word.  So  take  a  while  to 
ponder  these  most  interesting  word  choices  and  decide  if 


the  English  majors  did  indeed  shed  any  light  on  the 
anomalous  nature  of  the  department  or  decided  to  keep 
it  enshrouded  in  darkness  once  again.

A  student  entering  Lupton  Hall  lor  the  first  time

/orking  furiously  at  business  problems.  At  first  glance 
lat  is  what  she  would  see.  Then  Dr.  Schulz's  dog  would 
an  by  and  the  student  would  begin  to  notice  the  real

haos  reigns  in  Lupton  with  the  line  of  students  outside 
)r.  Baker's  office  and  one  or  more  of  Dr.  Middleton's 
Mother  Mary  to  Accounting  majors)  children  running 
own  the  hall  to  get  some  candy  from  Dean  Tucker.  (I 
aven't  seen  it,  but  I  wonder  what  happens  when  the  kids 
nd  the  dog  meet).  Dr.  Hetherington  will  have  at  least 


one  KA  in  his  ol'ficc,  and  Dr.  .Straley  can  al\<.ays  be 
counted  on  as  a  diversion  whether  in  class  or  roaming 
the  halls.  Each  of  the  professors  in  the  Business  and 
Economics  departments  has  a  distinct  personality  that 
students  will  either  love  or  hate,  but  this  personality 
makes  Oglethorpe  a  unique  place  to  get  a  business 
degree.

You've  seen  Dr.  Wolfs  pink  tlamingo  shining  from  the 
top  floor  of  Goslin.  you  were  never  certain  what  Dr. 
Amerson  was  sipping  on  in  Human  Biology,  and  you've 
seen  Dr.  Matthews'  technicolor  goggles,  but  these  are 
only  a  few  of  the  things  that  make  the  science  depart- 
ment at  Oglethorpe  unique.  Here  are  some  other  facts 
you  may  not  be  aware  of: 

•Goslin  Hall  was  named  for  Dr.  Roy  N.  Goslin  who 
served  Oglethorpe  as  Professor  of  Physics  and  Math- 
ematics and  later  as  Director  of  Admissions. 

•Buckets  of  a  mysterious  substance  known  as  "Goslin 
Goop"  can  be  found  in  storage  closets  of  Goslin.  The 
goop  is  rumored  to  be  left  over  from  Dr. Wheeler's 
(professor  1954-1985)  Principles  of  Science  Lab  and  no 


one  is  quite  sure  exactly  what  is  in  it. 

•Dr.  Amerson  was  Dean  of  Academics  at  Oglethorpe 
before  he  decided  teaching  biology  was  more  fun. 

•Dr.  Cramer  once  found  some  radioactive  material 
stored  in  the  basement  of  Goslin.  Ask  him  about  the 
experience  sometime. 

•Dr.  Schadler  grows  chrysanthemums  as  a  hobby.  You 
may  have  seen  his  plants  decorating  several  offices 
around  campus. 

•Only  two  brave  souls  are  graduating  in  May  1996  with 
a  Chemistry  major— Stephanie  Carouthers  and  Natalia 
Baranovskaya. 

•In  1993  AT&T®  gave  Oglethorpe  a  grant  to  add  a 
computer  lounge  in  Goslin.

Social  Psychology  analyzes  the  individual  in  the 
;ontext  of  the  society  in  which  he  or  she  lives.  For 
:xample,  if  you  wanted  to  analyze  the  individuals  who 
each  sociology  and  psychology  at  Oglethorpe,  you 
vould  find  that  their  individual  personalities  and  pecu- 
iarities  fit  together  remarkably  well  into  a  cohesive 
ubculture  of  the  professoriate.  First,  a  look  at  Dr.  Stone. 
le  is  so  organized  that  his  study  questions  and  class 
landouts  have  been  known  to  spill  over  into  his  col- 
sagues'  classrooms.  Fascinating  and  inspirational  though 
le  is,  if  you  cut  off  his  arms,  he  simply  could  not  teach, 
slow  Dr.  Kerr.  We  love  her  because  we  fear  her,  and  we 


fear  her  because  she  is  a  cognitive  psychologist,  and  she 
knows  how  we  think.  Dr.  Woolfolk  epitomizes  the  role 
of  the  college  professor— immaculate,  intellectual,  sur- 
prisingly entertaining--and  yet  unable  to  set  down  his 
jacket  without  first  turning  his  jacket  lining-side  out. 
Then  we  have  Dr.  Hand.  He  teaches  classes  which  are 
quite  scientific,  and  yet  always  mixes  current  issues  with 
the  molecules.  Students  learn  more  about  the  actual 
workings  of  delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol  in  his  classes 
than  we  are  able  to  discover  on  the  weekends.  The 
subculture  these  professors  create  is  another  Oglethorpe 
anomaly.

Joe  Ancis  once  said, 
"The  only  normal  people  are 
the  ones  you  don't  know  very 
well."  That  explains  a  great 
deal  about  Oglethorpe.  For 
years  people  have  been  marvel- 
ling at  the  collection  of  weird, 
eccentric,  troubled,  and  mania- 
cal people  who  comprise  the 
Oglethorpe  student  body.  One 
student  asked  if  weird  people 
are  drawn  to  Oglethorpe,  or  if 
people  come  here  and  then 
become  weird.  Perhaps  neither 
is  true.  It  may  be  a  result  of  the 
school  being  so  small,  and  the 
fact  that  everyone  knows  every- 
one a  little  too  well,  which 
leads  us  to  the  impression  that 
Oglethorpe  students  are  so 
strange.  Gossip  travels  with 
mesmerizing  speed,  washing 
over  dorms  and  down  hallways 
as  only  a  flood  of  half  truths 
and  bad  information  can.  In  the 
rest  of  the  world,  individuals 
can  conceal  a  few  eccentrici- 
ties, forget  a  few  mistakes.  The 
Oglethorpe  memory,  however, 
is  unforgiving,  and  nothing 
perpetrated  on  campus  can 
remain  unknown.  What  is 
anomalous  about  the 
Ogleth  i-pe  student  body  is  not 
the  chara  ' er  of  its  members, 
but  the  faci     ^t  we  are  all 
acquainted.

Being  a  member  in  an 
organization  is  more  than  just  a 
way  to  occupy  your  time.  At 
Oglethorpe,  membership  de- 
fines who  you  are. 

"Oh,  you  know  Mary 
what's-her-name.  She's  in  APO, 
writes  for  the  Petrel..." 

Suddenly  recognition 
dawns,  "Oh,  yeah,  that  Mary." 
A  student  is  not  merely  Mary  or 
John.  She  or  he  is  Kashima 
Mary  or  International  Club 
John.  Just  as  organizations  have 
an  impact  on  an  individual's 
idendty,  a  handful  of  individu- 
als can  easily  change  an 
organization's  identity.  Organi- 
zations at  Oglethorpe  are  best 
characterized  as  very  small  and 
subject  to  turbulent  change. 
Leaders  beg  and  scramble  for 
more  members;  members 
stretch  the  demands  of  several 
organizations  at  once.  Everyone 
is  more  and  more  involved  and 
yet  leaders  are  always  talking 
about  how  apathetic  their  mem- 
bers are.  The  act  of  balancing 
one  organization  with  another, 
and  all  organizations  with 
studies,  is  a  stressful  task.  It  is 
easy  to  focus  on  one  organiza- 
tion, one  piece  of  your  identity, 
such  that  other  groups  are 
neglected.  Oglethorpe  has  so 
many  organizations  and  so  few 
students  that  there  are  never 
enough  members  to  suit 
anyone's  needs.

The  1995-96  team  boasted  three  veteran 
players:  Stephen  Cooper,  Elizabeth  Stockton, 
and  Susan  Shirley.  All  three  had  played  for  four 
years  at  Oglethorpe.  The  first  team,  along  with 
seven  other  Oglethorpe  players,  participated  in 
six  tournaments  as  nearby  as  Georgia  Tech  and 
as  far  away  as  Mississippi  State.  The  team's  best 
showing  was  at  the  Ben-y  tournament,  where  it 
placed  third  in  a  twelve  team  field.  Stephen 
Cooper  was  the  team's  top  scorer  and  was  se- 
lected for  several  tournament  all  star  teams.  In 
addition,  OAT  sponsored  a  high  school  tourna- 
ment, the  second  annual  Stomiy  Petrel  Academic 
Tournament  (SPAT)  in  October.  SPAT  drew 
about  twenty  high  schools  from  Georgia  and 
South  CaroUna.

The  Black  Student  Caucus  is  an  organiza- 
tion that  promotes  Afro- American  awareness  on 
campus.  The  organization  works  hard  throughout 
the  year  to  plan  activities  to  keep  up  the  campus' 
awareness.  This  year  the  Black  Student  Caucus 
organized  an  on-campus  free-for-all  party,  and 
most  importantly,  planned  and  presented  numer- 
ous activities  for  Black  History  Month.  Two  of 
the  most  memorable  events  of  that  month  were 
the  candle  light  vigil  and  the  key-note  speaker 
Benjamin  Chavis.  The  Black  Student  Caucus  is 
is  open  to  all  students.

A  hundred  years  ago  French  was  the 
language  everyone  learned  as  part  of  becoming 
an  educated  person.  Even  the  Russian  royalty 
spoke  French  at  court.  Today,  however,  as 
America  gains  power  in  the  international  realm, 
and  France  is  no  longer  the  colonial  power  it 
once  was,  the  popularity  of  the  French  language 
is  fading  from  American  life.  As  the  old  joke 
goes,  a  person  who  speaks  two  languages  is 
bilingual,  and  a  person  who  speaks  three  lan- 
guages is  trilingual.  What  do  you  call  a  person 
who  speaks  one  language?  American.  Le  Circle 
Francais  is  seeking  to  reverse  this  cultural  back- 
sliding by  keeping  the  use  of  French  alive  in  the 
university  setting.  After  all,  a  language  as  beauti- 
ful as  French  should  never  be  forgotten,  not  even 
in  America.

"Donde  esta  el  bano?"  wonders  one  of 
Oglethorpe's  intemacionales.  Another  student 
celebrates  the  foreign  customs  of  a  far-off  land, 
while  yet  another  Petrel  exchanges  international 
recipes  during  one  of  the  many  international 
days  in  the  small  dining  room.  But  learning  how 
to  make  French  toast  is  just  one  of  the  many 
reasons  Oglethorpe's  popular  International  Club 
continues  to  draw  members  from  all  over  cam- 
pus. A  celebration  of  diversity  is  too  mild  a 
description  for  a  club  that  teaches  us  that  what 
is  most  exciting  about  being  different  is  our 
innate  sameness.  It  is  the  very  sameness  of  our 
Oglethorpe  that  provides  the  backdrop  for  the 
world  of  diversity  that  is  all  around  us.  It  is  this 
contrast  that  is  the  main  goal  of  the  Interna- 
tional Club  as  they  forge  forward  to  share  and 
entrust  in  us  the  cultures  of  the  world;  that,  and 
they  eat  a  lot  of  French  toast.

Who  are  those  people  you  see  wearing 
black,  long-sleeved  t-shirts  with  a  gold  petrel  on 
the  back?  Most  hkely  they  are  "O"  Club  mem- 
bers, but  they  could  be  sneaky  roommates  who 
borrowed  the  coveted  shirts.  "O"  Club  members 
earn  the  right  to  wear  the  Petrel  by  lettering  in  a 
sport  for  two  years.  Their  job  is  to  support  and 
promote  athletics  at  Oglethoipe.  Activities  in- 
clude aiding  in  recruiting  and  on  visitation  days 
for  high  school  seniors.  They  also  sponsor  a 
college  basketball  Final  Four  party  in  the  Bomb 
Shelter.  The  "O"  Club  also  purchased  some 
equipment  for  the  Schmidt  Center.  In  the  future, 
when  you  see  some  golden  petrels,  help  them 
support  Oglethorpe  athletics  and  take  pride  in 
your  Petrel  teams.

This  year  the  Ambassadors  gave  1 50 
tours,  housed  30  prospective  students  overnight, 
called  560  students,  and  smiled  at  dozens  of 
people  on  visitation  days.  No  one  is  truly  an 
Ambassador,  though,  until  he  or  she  has  survived 
a  Tour  from  Hell.  Yes,  in  the  course  of  meeting 
many  sweet  families  and  intelligent  students,  one 
is  bound  to  encounter  that  anomaly  among  tours 
which  amounts  to  forty-five  minutes  of  misery. 
Tours  from  Hell  come  in  several  varieties. 
There's  the  silent  tour.  Not  even  the  best  anec- 
dotes, quips,  and  follies  can  induce  these  people 
to  speak.  Then  there's  the  paranoid  tour  group, 
including  the  protective  dad  and  the  psycho  mom 
who  want  to  discuss  campus  security,  locked 
windows,  and  visitation  hours  the  whole  time. 
Even  in  the  face  of  Tours  from  Hell,  however. 
Ambassadors  keep  smiling,  keep  talking,  and 
keep  their  fingers  crossed  when  assuring  Dad 
that  campus  security  is  tight.

The  Oglethorpe  Student  Association  mas- 
terminds the  expenditure  of  the  controversial 
student  activity  fee.  They  have  a  collosal  sum  of 
money  to  spend  on  entertainment  and  other 
programs  for  the  students.  This  year  they  orga- 
nized such  events  as  the  fall  carnival  and 
Springfest.  The  elected  members  of  OSA  have 
all  the  power.  All  the  money.  All  the  fame  and 
glory.  Yes,  sometimes  it  seems  they  are  the  only 
students  who  matter.  The  rest  of  us  students 
wander  helplessly  through  our  college  years 
attending  the  grand  events  that  OSA  plans  for  us. 
We  are  like  children  and  they  our  keepers,  our 
benefactors,  our  wardens.  Damn,  they  don't 
belong  in  the  Organizations  section  of  this  book, 
they  belong  with  the  Estabhshment.  They  are  the 
Establishment.  The  Entertainment  Establishment 
of  Oglethorpe.  And  they're  good  at  it.  too.

ODK  invites  academic  leaders  into  its 
circle.  The  selective  honor  fraternity  attempts  to 
bring  Oglethorpe's  finest  students,  faculty,  and 
staff  together.  Following  a  careful  and  mysteri- 
ous selection  process,  new  members  are  tapped 
on  the  shoulder  in  class  and  invited  to  join  the 
robed  procession.  At  Boar's  Head  new  inductees 
got  a  mouthful  of  swine  snout  to  accompany  an 
earful  of  Cramer.  ODK  activities  included  a 
successful  Geek  Week  and  a  faculty-staff  appre- 
ciation reception.

The  print  below  the  masthead  proclaims, 
"Above  and  Beyond  Oglethorpe  University,"  and 
the  dedicated  staff  and  editors  of  The  Stormy 
Petrel  try  to  achieve  this  lofty  goal  on  a  bi- 
weekly basis.  Striving  to  inform,  enlighten,  and 
entertain,  the  student-run  newspaper  works 
feverishly  for  a  fortnight  to  produce  a  quality 
paper.  Though  they  occupy  Oglethoipe's  minds 
and  conversations,  even  the  finest  efforts  of  the 
Petrel  meet  neglect  as  the  timely  and  compelling 
becomes  irrelevant  and  obscure.  Like  1 100  ice 
sculptures  in  11 -point  font,  each  issue  of 
Oglethorpe's  primary  publication  poses  the  ques- 
tion: where  does  the  Petrel  go  after  the  storm?

The  University  Singers  love  to  use  their 
talents  in  service  of  the  Petrel  spirit.  Spangled 
golden  belts  and  somber  black  evening  attire 
added  that  touch  of  formality  to  Boar's  Head, 
Oglethorpe  Day,  and  the  Honors  Convocation. 
The  Singers  braved  bored  high  school  students  in 
Cartersville,  entertained  an  old  man  in  Chatta- 
nooga, and  delighted  sleepy  Baptists  in  Nash- 
ville, despite  Carrie  Adkin's  pink  eye  and  the 
pressure  of  papers  and  exams.  As  a  finale,  the 
University  Singers  and  alumni  filled  Lupton 
Auditorium  with  the  lilting  songs  of  Sydney 
Lanier.

If  Thucydides  were 
called  upon  to  give  a  reliable 
account  of  a  Greek  life  in  1996, 
his  response  would  include 
descriptions  of  groups,  letters, 
siblings,  cafeteria  placement, 
houses,  theme  parties,  formals, 
mixers,  party-flavored  parties, 
colors,  connection,  fall  rush, 
bids,  pledges,  and  Greek  Week. 
Doubtless  the  classical  historian 
would  see  connections  between 
modern  interfraternity  rivalries 
and  the  commotion  which  he 
observed  in  his  own  time  dur- 
ing the  Peloponnesian  War. 
How  much  Oglethorpe's  six 
Greek  organizations  resemble 
Helen  or  hoplites  is  intriguing 
and  inconsequential.  Whether 
antiquity  could  appreciate  the 
boom  and  bump  and  grind  of  a 
frat  party  is  a  question  for  the 
ages.

Greek  Week  1 996  was  marked  by  some  of  the 
closest  competition  in  recent  memory,  but  more  impor- 
tant than  winning  and  losing  is  the  fun  Greeks  have,  not 
only  with  their  own  brothers  and  sisters,  but  also  with  the 
brothers  and  sisters  of  other  fraternities  and  sororities. 
The  bonding  that  takes  place  among  the  members  of 
each  fraternity  or  sorority  could  arguably  make  Greek 
Week  one  of  the  best  brother-  or  sisterhood  building 
events  that  each  fraternity  and  sorority  take  part  in  all 
year. 

Some  of  the  Greek  Week  events  are  softball, 
football,  field  events  (including  the  doughnut  eating 
contest),  the  best  dressed  Greek,  and  the  skit  competi- 
tion. This  year  Delta  Sig  truly  had  cause  to  celebrate, 
though,  as  they  won  Greek  Week  following  a  five  year 
winning  streak  by  ZAE.  Despite  the  arguing  and  bicker- 
ing inevitably  brought  about  by  competition,  everyone 
comes  away  from  Greek  Week  feeling  fulfilled  (often 
with  doughnuts)  and  closer  to  everyone  involved.

If  the  University  of  Geor- 
gia competes  against  Missis- 
sippi State,  anyone  who  cheers 
for  the  Bulldogs  cancels  himself 
out.  When  Louisville  matches 
up  against  Stanford,  things  can 
get  confusing.  In  Division  III 
athletics  and  beyond,  a  cheer  for 
the  Stormy  Petrels  can  mean 
only  one  thing.  No  one  roots  for 
Stormy  Petrels  without  rooting 
for  Oglethoipe.  Even  an 
Audubon  Society  member 
celebrating  the  most  determined 
and  inspiring  of  seabirds  will 
likely  distinguish  himself  from 
a  die-hard  Oglethoipian;  the 
Audubon  Society  member  will 
probably  say  it  wrong  (though 
perhaps  he  should  get  an  e  for 
effort).  Ornithologists  should 
know  best  how  the  bird's  flight, 
feet  near  the  ocean,  earned  the 
Petrel  its  name  (an  allusion  to 
St.  Peter's  walking  on  water). 
And  if  the  same  ornithologist 
were  to  watch  an  Oglethorpe 
sporting  contest,  he  would  see 
that  the  Petrels  are  nobody's 
pet.
