Atlanta Is Ten Minutes Away
By Jane Sutton Hicks '76
Some THINGS just don't change. At
Agnes Scott, field hockey is still a
refreshing expenditure of a gorgeous
autumn afternoon; exam teas are the
most enjoyable interlude of that most
dreaded time; and Georgia Tech still
beckons one away form the library.
The Tower of Main looms over Decatur,
Buttrick remains the primary classroom
building, and Letitia Pate serves hun-
gry students three meals a day.
Some things, for better or worse,
change drastically. One, much for
the better, is the opportunities availa-
ble to the Agnes Scott student once
she sets aside her books and takes a
jaunt to downtown Atlanta. Thanks
to Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit
Authority (MARTA), sights and sounds
of this marvelous city are as close as
a walk past the old Belk's in down-
town Decatur. Beneath the square in
Decatur, trains head for downtown
Atlanta and Avondale every twelve
minutes. Safe as well as clean, MARTA 's
train system is a subject of pride to
Atlantans. Students, and you and I
when we visit, are afforded easy,
inexpensive access to "the Gateway
of the South," and can use MARTA
to enhance studies or to broaden hori-
zons.
Art and architecture students can
now have a field day in Atlanta, due
both to the rail system and the innova-
tive and diverse art forms found in
the city. The Inman Park/Reynoldstown
station is within walking distance of
the delightful pink, blue, brown, and
canary facades and fascinating turrets,
spires, and idiosyncracies of a number
of restored Victorian homes. Although
the interiors are on tour once annual-
ly, the exteriors of these homes are
of interest at all times.

Another must, the famous Memo-
rial Arts Center, is undergoing major
expansion. It presently holds the High
Museum of Art. the Atlanta Symphony,
the Atlanta School of Art. the Wal-
ter Hill Auditorium, and the Alliance
Resident Theatre. This comprehensive
Center was built from donations in
memory of the prominent Atlantans
who died in an airplane crash while
returning from a European art tour.
The permanent collections and the ex-
citing visiting collections make the
High an enjoyable visit at any time.
In October 1983. scheduled opening
of the ""new"" High, the sights will be
spectacular. Designed by Richard Meier,
the High will claim a separate build-
ing, 135.000 square feet, adjacent
to the Arts Alliance. The atrium plan
center will cost over twenty million
dollars and will include six levels. A
covered walkway will connect the
building to the next MARTA station to
be opened, the Memorial Arts Station.
Arts and architecture lovers are eagerly
awaiting the opening.
History and political science buffs
also have a variety of attractions from
which to choose. Atlanta, capital of
Georgia, is Southern hub of political
activity, and the capital building is
one block from the Georgia State
rail station. At the King Memorial Sta-
tion, four stops from Decatur, visit-
ors may pay homage to one of the
South"s courageous leaders, Martin
Luther King, Jr. A burial crypt built
as a memorial to him is adjacent to
the Center for Nonviolent Social Change.
Also near King Memorial is Grant
Park, home of the newly renovated
Cyclorama and Atlanta Zoo. History
comes alive in the Cyclorama depiction
of the famous Battle of Atlanta. Biology
majors and animal lovers can enjoy
the zoo.
Music connoisseurs of sounds from
Beethoven to Beach and from opera
to square dancing can find their souls
fed in Atlanta. Students of classical
music regularly enjoy the Atlanta Sym-
phony, whose home is the Memorial
Arts Center. Students who love op-
era can find that too. Site of the Met-
ropolitan Opera every year for a week
in May. the Atlanta Civic Center is
filled to capacity with opera lovers
from the entire Southeast. The Civic
Center also houses trade shows, bal-
lets, and musical and theatrical pro-
ductions. It claims its own stop on
the North/South MARTA line. The
Center's attractive modem architecture
is quite a contrast to the elaborate
interior of the similarly utilized build-
ing located one step further north, at
the North Avenue station. A few steps
from this station is the fabulous Fox
Theatre. At one time the Fox was
famous as the second largest movie
house in the U.S. Recently renovated
in all of its splendor, the Fox now
hosts a wide variety of entertainment.
Names the likes of and diverse as
Isaac Sterne and the Rolling Stones
appear frequently. The ornate Egyp-
tian Ballroom and the world's most
acclaimed theatre pipe organ are
highlights of any visit to this breath-
taking attraction.
Of course, Atlanta has always
offered a battery of sights and sounds
vying for the leisure attentions of ASC
students. Unfortunately, students have
not always had easy access to them.
Now both the entertainments and means
of transportation to them have increased.
One relatively new attraction is the
Omni International. Located on the
East/West line of MARTA. the Omni
is the heart of convention city. The
Omni International Megastructure and
the adjoining Georgia World Congress
Center make a complete convention
and entertainment center. Located un-
der one climate controlled fourteen-
story high plastic roof are a variety
of exclusive international shops and
boutiques, six movie theatres, restau-
rants, and two office buildings. The
gorgeous Omni International Hotel is
also included in the massive structure.
Adjacent to it is the Omni Sports
Center, home of the Atlanta Hawks
basketball and site of numerous con-
certs, shows, and meetings. Built at a
cost of $16,650.{X)0. this steel and

glass edifice seats 17,000 spectators.
The Georgia World Congress Cen-
ter next door is the second largest
facility of its kind in the U.S. With
350,000 square feet of exhibition space
and a 2.000 seat auditorium, this
unique center has restaurants and sim-
ultaneous interpretation facilities for
six languages.
Also on the MARTA rail line is Peach-
tree Center, "hotel and office district" "
of downtown. Those of us who gradu-
ated in the more recent past remember
the blue-domed Hyatt Regency Hotel,
John Portman's magnificent structure.
A favorite pastime was to whiz up the
high speed glass elevators to the re-
volving Polaris restaurant. Now, still
impressive, this twenty-three story
building is dwarfed by the office
buildings and hotel located next to it.
The Peachtree Center Complex, a
highlight of Atlanta's singular skyline,
has become a $200 million city with
a total of eleven buildings. In the
complex are located the world's second
largest merchandise mart, over forty-one
shops and thirty-two restaurants and
cafes. Peachtree Plaza, also the design
of John Portman, is noted for its ele-
gant decor and 1,100 guest rooms.
Next to Peachtree Plaza is Davison's
downtown department store. Never
was Davison's more accessible to Agnes
Scott students.

cial significance for a number of Agnes
Scott students. Just blocks away, past
the world famous "Varsity Drive In,"
is Georgia Tech, well-known to Agnes
Scott women of all ages.
Naturally, the MARTA rail station
cannot accommodate all of Atlanta's
attractions, but many are accessible
for Agnes Scott students by bus or
by a combination of bus and rail. Stu-
dents can still take the bus from East
College Street to Stone Mountain. The
largest isolated body of exposed gran-
ite in the world and the surrounding
recreational park are a major setting
for picnics, fun. and relaxation for
Georgians and tourists. Another attrac-
tion is in the opposite direction. From
a rail station downtown, students can
catch a bus to the impressive Atlanta
Stadium, opened in 1965. Cheering
the Braves in baseball and the Falcons
in football are favorite pastimes of
Atlantans and sports loving students.
Someday the MARTA system will
continue all the way to the Atlanta
Airport. For now, however, travelers
and sightseers must utilize other trans-
portation to this largest international
airport in the world. Modem art and
four concourses are features of this
newly completed complex.
Transportation to churches and syn-
agogues is easy. There are more than
1,300 churches and synagogues in
the metropolitan area. Some are acces-
sible by train, bus, or two legs. Other
churches offer rides for Agnes Scott
students.
While Agnes Scott has retained the
best of its traditions, its excellent
education and its picturesque campus,
Atlanta is increasingly a source of
educational and extracurricular opportu-
nities. The Agnes Scott student really
does have it all: superior academic
training, ample social life, and all
the benefits of Atlanta at her doorstep.
We alumnae can do our high school
friends a great service by introducing
them to our alma mater. The educa-
tion they will receive on the magnolia
studded campus nestled in Decatur,
so close to the bustling Gateway City
of the South, is unexcelled anywhere.
4 AGNES SCOTT ALUMNAE QUARTERLY
By Wallace M. Alston
Mildred Rutherford Mell 1889-1982
I AM GLAD of this Opportunity to pay
tribute to Mildred Rutherford Mell.
one of Agnes Scott's most respected
and beloved retired professors. Dr.
Mell died in Spartanburg, South Caro-
lina, on September 16 and was bur-
ied September 18 in the Oconee Hill
Cemetery, Athens, Georgia.
Miss Mell came to Agnes Scott in
1938 from Shorter College, Rome,
Georgia, where she was academic dean
(1928-1938), having previously held
the position of dean of women
(1925-1928). Prior to her Shorter
College experience. Mildred Mell was
president of Lucy Cobb Institute in
Athens, and before that, professor of
mathematics in that institution.
Miss Mell received her A.B. degree
from the University of Wiconsin where
she was elected to Phi Beta Kappa.
The University of Georgia conferred
the M.A. degree in 1925, and the
University of North Carolina the Ph.D.
in 1938. Miss Mell was a recipient
of the Rosenwald Fellowship in
1937-1938.
Throughout twenty-two years as a
member of the Agnes Scott College
faculty (1938-1960), Mildred Ruther-
ford Mell served with competence and
loyalty. She was professor and head
of the Department of Economics and
Sociology during the entire period of
her life at Agnes Scott. Miss Mell
taught authentically, keeping abreast
of developments in economics and so-
ciology through persistent personal
investigation and study and through
active participation in such professional
organizations as the American Sociol-
ogical Society (in which she was a
fellow), the Southern Economic Assoc-
iation, the Institute of Labor Studies,
and the Georgia Academy of the So-
cial Sciences.
In addition to her contribution as a
teacher and scholar, Miss Mell was

Lecture Fund.
one of the College's staunchest and
most constructive members of the fac-
ulty. She was independent and unafraid
to voice her judgments, but, whether
or not her point of view prevailed,
she dealt with her colleagues graciously
and with good humor and she was
always a team player. I have no rec-
ollection of anything worthwhile that
we tried to do at Agnes Scott that
Miss Mell did not support with all her
gifts of mind and heart. I particularly
valued the work that she did for a
number of years as chairman of the
College's Lecture Committee.
Mildred Mell's professional interests
and activities extended beyond her re-
sponsibilities at Agnes Scott. She was
active in the Georgia League of Wo-
men Voters, serving as vice presid-
ent and a member of the state board.
She was a member of the Budget
Committee of the Community Fund of
Atlanta for six years. Miss Mell was
active in the work of the Social Plan-
ning Council of Atlanta, the South-
em Regional Council (of which she
was a fellow), the DeKalb County
Red Cross, the DeKalb Family Serv-
ice Society (as chairman of the Board
for two years), the American Associa-
tion of University Women, and the
Southeastern Regional Conference on
Adult Education.
Mildred Rutherford Mell continued
to believe in and to love Agnes Scott
to the day fo her death. Faculty mem-
bers of her quality and stature are
responsible in large measure for the
quality and stature of the College
today. Agnes Scott is grateful for the
legacy of Miss Mell's strong Chris-
tian character and recognized ability
as a teacher and educational leader.
May the memory of her life and work
among us continue to strengthen and
encourage this college community through
many years!
FALL 1982
By Constance A. Jones
T
^: The Department o
Of ALL TITLES "'Update"" provides the
most appropriate introduction to the
Department of Sociology and Anthro-
pology in 1982. This is a department
"brought up to date"" in identity and
scope. Prior to 1978, anyone look-
ing up 'Sociology" in the catalog
was politely instructed to "See Eco-
nomics." In 1978. however, the offerings
in sociology and anthropology, pre-
viously taught within the Department
of Economics and Sociology, achieved
new definition. John Tumblin. who
joined the Agnes Scott faculty in 1961,
presided over the organization of a
new Department of Sociology and
Anthropology. In addition to Professor
Tumblin, Caroline Dillman, Constance
Jones, and a visiting instructor, Kath-
ryn Palumbo, set the course for the
newly separated department. Since the
reorganization, a unified curriculum
with a greater variety of courses, a
more rigorous theoretical and research
program, and a number of challenging
experiences for learning outside the
classroom have been both objectives
and achievements. A significantly im-
proved major in sociology and newly
inaugurated major in sociology-
anthropology now make possible expanded
opportunities for student participation
in what C. Wright Mills terms the
"sociological imagination."
The expanded curriculum in sociol-
ogy addresses the four major areas of
the discipline under the rubrics: Social
Institutions, Social Organization and
Disorganization, Socialization, and The-
ory and Methodology. The first of
these. Social Institutions, incUudes courses
on the family, education, religion,
and social work. Students investigate
these organizational components of
society in order to comprehend the
structures, processes, and functions
of American and other societies.
Analysis of the family as an institution
examines continuity and change across
ethnic, racial, and geographic bounda-
ries in both historical and contemporary
settings. "Sociology of Education" ex-
amines the transmission of culture,
the interaction of the educational insti-

tution and other institutions, and the
inequality of educational opportunity.
Students in "Sociology of Religion"
use the Atlanta area as a site for field
work as they apply theory and research
methods in the observation of contem-
porary religious and psychotherapeutic
movements. Practical experiences in
the application of sociological insights
through field placement comes through
"Introduction to Social Welfare Insti-
tutions." In this course, each student
completes a fifty-hour internship in a
local social-welfare agency such as
Planned Parenthood. Association for
the Blind, the Council on Battered
Women, Grady Hospital, Economic
Opportunity Atlanta, or Volunteer De-
Kalb.
The second rubric. Social Organiza-
tion and Disorganization, refers to
social change and the effects of change
on groups and individuals. Various
courses study the institutional problems
of community disorganization, racial
conflict, poverty, unemployment, and
violence as well as the individual
problems of criminality, delinquency,
drug abuse, and mental abnomialities.
Turning location into a laboratory for
field research, "The South in Transi-
tion" and "Southern Women and Social
Change" explore the urban and rural
environments of the South, the vast
6 AGNES SCOTT ALIIMNAE QUARTERLY
Sociology and Anthropology
social and cultural changes affecting
the region, and the roles of black and
white women as participants in these
changes. In all courses covering social
disorganization and change, students
observe in situ a variety of social
situations, ranging from mill villages
to inner-city communities.
The third division. Socialization,
refers to the processes of learning roles
and statuses in society. "Systems of
Inequality in Society and Culture" ex-
amines social stratification, ethnic
differentiation, and attendant inequities
of power, prestige, and wealth. Cour-
ses in gender roles and human sexuality
explore the attitudes and behaviors
associated with a basic principle of
social organization and stratification,
gender attribution. Advanced students
of socialization, investigating the ways
in which definitions of society and the
self-concepts of individuals are inter-
dependent, examine the implications
of Charles H. Cooley's famous dic-
tum, "Self and society are twin-bom."
The historical and contemporary analyses
of different cultures included in each
of these courses lead students to an
awareness of the complex interaction
of society, culture, and personality in
the formation of human beings and
social groups.
As the "cons" of academic sociology.
Professor of Sociology and Anthropology John Tiimh/in
Theory and Methodology, the final cat-
egory, includes courses in history of
social thought and research techniques.
Theory, methods, and statistical anal-
ysis enable students to survey the literature
of social science and to design their
own research projects. In these proces-
ses of appreciating the past and of
"doing" social science, students "stand
on the shoulders of giants."
The expanded curriculum in anthro-
pology studies the theoretical problems
of the discipline, descriptions of the
lifeways of peoples (ethnographies),
and societal adaptations to environment,
all within a context of cultural evolu-
tion. "Native Peoples of the Americas"
compares the cultural strategies of
tribal (pre-civilized) peoples from similar
environments in both North and South
America. The Incas of Peru, the Mayas
of Central America and southern Mex-
ico, and the Aztecs of Mexico, societies
of greater social, economic, and po-
litical complexity, are the foci in "Pre-
Columbian Civilizations." Systems
within society as well as historical
periods provide the basis for organiza-
tion for these courses. In "Communi-
cation in Culture and Society," for
example, students, after gaining fam-
iliarity with cultural, class, and ethnic
differences in communication, concen-
trate on ways in which verbal and
non-verbal communication both signals
and creates socio-cultural identities,
relationships, and meanings.
The curriculum of the new inter-
disciplinary major in sociology-anthro-
pology includes study of the common
ancestry of the two disciplines, field
experience, and basic methods of re-
search. The mutual dependence of hu-
man beings and their habitats and the
ways people build their cultures out
of systems of symbols unify ap-
proaches within the courses of sociol-
ogy-anthropology. In addition to these
emphases, human physiology and the
cross-cultural perspectives of other dis-
ciplines broaden the learning of the
student selecting the new major.
Students may apply their compre-
hension of sociological and anthro-

pological analysis in independent
research. As a result, a number of
advanced studies on wide-ranging topics
have been completed. Theoretical proj-
ects using historical research have
produced ""The North American Indian;
Problems of Acculturation" and
"Television as Twentieth-Century Myth:
A Structuralist Analysis." A special
study on "Sexual Problems and Dys-
functions in Marriage" helped prepare
a student for an internship at the At-
lanta Center for Reproductive Health.
In "The Unique Problems of the Mi-
nority Family" another student examined
the Southern black family and its tech-
niques for coping with minority status.
Qualitative methods and ethnographic
field work were combined in a participant
observation study. "A Qualitative Study
of the Southern Mill Village."
Quantitative methods, employed in other
projects, led to "The Effects of Pub-
lic. Private, and Parochial Secondary
Education on College Achievement"
and "Images of Women as Portrayed
in Popular Music." Demographic an-
alysis was the basis for "Sri Lanka:
A Study in Ecological Anthropology."
Several of these projects have brought
state and regional recognition for their
authors at presentations in undergradu-
ate symposia.
This update and overview demonstr-
ate to some degree the variety of
sociological and anthropological expe-
rience offered in the new department.
As part of a liberal arts curriculum,
sociology and anthropology at Agnes
Scott combine social scientific rigor
with a humanistic perspective. In service
to liberal education, and recognizing
that mature scholarship demands insight
and retlection. the department's faculty
and curriculum emphasize development
of conceptual skills, theoretical inference,
and interpretive understanding.
Though useful in a variety of ap-
plied contexts, sociological and
anthropological insights are more prop-
erly viewed as essential to a generic
understanding of human experience.
As humanistic social sciences, sociol-
ogy and anthropology at Agnes Scott
provide perspectives on liberal learn-
ing. Applications of these perspectives
in social work, social engineering,
or planned social change may be pur-
sued by majors after graduation in
professional or graduate schools.
During their years at the College,
students find in the new curriculum
a number of rewards improved
scholarship, greater appreciation of
interdisciplinary inquiry, and more op-
portunities for individual research.
Careers after graduation hold another
measure of significant improvement
in the new curriculum. Majors in this
department have followed a variety
of successful pursuits, including gradu-
ate work in academic sociology,
academic anthropology, urban planning,
and law. Others have begun careers
in journalism, business administration,
investment analysis, criminal justice.
and social welfare.
The faculty members responsible
for today's curriculum, though differ-
ent in background and research inter-
ests, exemplify what one sociologist
labels the sine qua non of humanis-
tic social science: a passionate interest
in the "doings" of humanity in
all forms.
John Tumblin (Ph.D. Duke University)
is a bilingual, bicultural anthropolog-
ist whose main interests include racial
and ethnic minorities, ecology, and
the culture areas of both North and
South America. He regularly travels
to Peru. Mexico, and Central America
in pursuit of ethnographic data and
pictures of archaeological sites for cour-
ses in "Pre-Columbian Civilizations"
and "Native Peoples of the Ameri-
cas." In 1981. he traced the route of
the Lewis and Clark expedition across
North America gathering representat-
ive photographs of the prairie, plains,
plateau, and northwest coast habitats
and information on the northwest coast
Indians in museums in Washington
and British Columbia. For "Ecological
Anthropology," he examined the pre-
sent use in bulk transportation of the
four principal rivers of North Amer-
ica. Other field work has produced an
evaluative study of literacy programs
for adults in Central America. Colum-
bia, and Venezuela for the Agency
for International Development and a
post as consultant to an A.I.D.-
sponsored literacy program in northeastem
Brazil. During Professor Tumblin's
latest sabbatical, he studied Olmec.
Maya, Aztec, and Inca archaeological
sites in Mexico, Central America, and
Peru.
Professor Tumblin's dissertation, "The
Southern Baptist Missionary: A study
8 AGNES SCOTT ."iLUMNAE QL'ARTKRLY
in the Sociology of the Professions,"
has been used by Baptist seminaries
in the United States and Brazil to pre-
pare missionary candidates for role
conflict. Three of his articles have been
published in Portuguese in the Brazilian
journal, O Expositor Teologico: "A
Mordomia da Mente (The Stewardship
of the Mind)," "Algums Comentar-
ios Sobre a Relagao Entre a Sociologia
e o Cristianismo (Some Observations
on the Relationship Between Sociology
and Christianity)," and "Responsab-
ilidades e Oportunidades Sociais da
Igreja (Social Service Opportunities
and Responsibilities of the Church)."
His "Culture Shock, Role Shock or
No Shock at All?" was included in
the volume, A Decade of Sociological
Challenges: The Presidential Addres-
ses of the Georgia Sociological and
Anthropological Association. 1965-74.
An active participant in professional
organizations. Professor Tumblin is a
past president of the (Georgia Sociological
and Anthropological Association.
Caroline Dillman (Ph.D. Stanford
University) is a sociologist and educ-
ational specialist whose main interests
include the culture of the American
South, sociology of education, and the
family. An assignment as Associate
Research Scientist at the American In-
stitutes for Research in the Behavioral
Sciences in Palo Alto, California, where
she maintains an affiliation, preceded
her coming to Agnes Scott in 1978.
Experience in educational research
and academic interest in the South
led to research in a Southern mill vil-
lage and her subsequent dissertation
on the effect of Southern rural culture
on children's education. The field
work, which continues, has been the
subject of a number of presentations
at professional meetings. More recent
study of Southern history and women
in the South has gained national pub-
licity and led to several scholarly
papers and lectures for historical soc-
ietes.
Professor Dillman's publications in
sociology and anthropology include
"More on Identifying the Rural Com-
munity" in The Rural Sociologist and
"Ethical Problems in Social Science
Research Peculiar to Participant Ob-
servation" in Human Organization. She
is senior author of two monographs
in education. Writing Instructional Ob-
jectives and Mainstreaming the Hand-
icapped in Vocational Education, and
sole author of Techniques of Editing.
Other selected publications in education
include Handbook for Writing Project
PLAN Modules and "Project PLAN"
in The Christian Science Monitor.
At the Mid-South Sociological Assoc-
iation meeting in October, she
chaired a session entitled "Southern
Women in Transition" and presented
a paper on the definitional complexi-
ties and methodological problems of
researching Southern women.
Constance Jones (Ph.D. Emory
University) is a sociologist whose main
interests include the sociology of religion,
social psychology, and the sociology
of sex roles. She has been at Agnes
Scott since 1973. As Ford Founda-
tion Fellow and Public Health Service
Fellow of the National Institute of
Mental Health, she has conducted so-
cial psychological research into inter-
personal distancing, mental retardation,
and interpersonal tactics. She has spent
two summers on Fulbright programs
in India researching community
development and social change and
her doctoral dissertation was an ex-
amination of the social psychological
effects of the caste system on young
Indians. She has continued her inter-
est in the social institutions of India
and has published "Observations on
the Status of Women in India" in
the International Journal of Women' s
Studies. Most recently. Professor Jones
was Visiting Scholar at the Center for
the Study of New Religious Move-
ments of the Graduate Theological Un-
ion, Berkeley, where she investigated
power and authority in contemporary
religious and psychotherapeutic move-
ments. Two of her articles, "Authori-
tarianism in New Religious Movements"
and "Exemplary Dualism and Auth-
ority at Jonestown" will be published
in the forthcoming volume. Conver-

INVESTITURE
Seventy-Year-Old Custom Celebrated
Wearing black academic gowns and
holding their caps in their hands.
119 seniors, led by the faculty in
full regalia, marched into Gaines Chapel
for Investiture Saturday, October 16.
College Organist Raymond Martin
played "Ancient of Days" for this
traditional procession remembered by
alumnae. Investiture has been cele-
brated at Agnes Scott College for
more than seventy years.
Miriam K. Drucker, Charles A.
Dana Professor of Psychology, was
chosen to give the Investiture ad-
dress, and the topic of her speech
was "Change as Stress and Challenge."
She suggested that the changes the
seniors were experiencing during their
four years at college were minor
compared to the changes they would
encounter next year after their grad-
uation.
In speaking of the ways different
people meet change, she said, "In
each encounter we have, we contribute
the appraisal and so become not vic-
tim, but one crucial determinant of
our own experience. Experience such
Professor Miriam D nicker addresses seniors.
as a situation of change is not just
dumped on us by some malevolent
force out there. The experience is
determined at least in part by our
own contribution to it." She pnxreeded
to discuss four clues which help us
understand variations in response to
change.
In conclusion. Dr. Drucker stated,
"We can alter, if nothing else, being
victimized by ourselves. Such rec-
ognition offers the opportunity for
manageable stress during change and
perhaps manageable challenge also.
As Eric Fromm says, your center is
within yourself. Your capacity for
being and for expressing your essen-
tial powers as a person is part of
your character structure and de-
pends not on the externals of your
life but on you."
On the following day, Sunday, Oc-
tober 17, "Whose Time?" was
the title of the Investiture sermon
presented by Mary B. Sheats. Ful-
ler E. Callaway Professor of Bible
and Religion. Her sermon was based
on the scripture from Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
which begins. "For everything there
is a season and a time for every
matter under Heaven."
Dr. Sheats answered the question
"Whose Time?" in two parts. First,
she said, "It is your time. And you
are free to use the time of your life
as you choose. . . . Our text tells us
that ours is a stated time .... the
propitious time." She explained that
spending time is a stewardship on
our part. Then she continued with
the second part of her answer, "For
when we say that time is our time,
we have said just half of it. Time
does not belong exclusively to us: It
is God' s Time. Therefore it is for
God's purpose that we live." She
emphasized that we must have the
right perspective on how time is to
be used and that we are the custodi-
ans of the time alloted us.
Copies of both the Investiture ad-
dress and the Investiture sermon are
available upon request from the Alum-
nae Office, Agnes Scott College.

10 AliNES SCOTT .ALUMN.AE QLIARTtRLY
On Being a Senior
By Bainl Llovd '83
There is a word that surfaces during
the spring of your junior year which
marks the begining of the ritual of
being a senior. The word is "Cap-
ping" and it refers to that mystical
ceremony when the current seniors
pass down not only their caps and
gowns to the juniors who will follow
them, but also all the intangible things
which make up being a senior.
One of the other rituals which marks
the movement into the senior year is
the learning of the song "Tired Old
Seniors." Its lyrics contain all the
watchwords of the senior experience.
We are tired old seniors
Weary, worn and blue.
We're beginning to wonder
If we'll ever get through
The senior year is full of require-
ments finally fulfilled; independent studies
which carry on far into the night,
for months; the burdens and the joys
of leadership. Getting red-tagged be-
fore registration (which means that
something is wrong with your regis-
tration cards and plans, and that you
must register last after fixing it) just
when your letter of the alphabet is the
first to register is something that must
happen only to seniors.
Another important event marking
the senior year takes place during the
fall Senior Investiture. This traditional
ritual recognizes the senior's status,
privileges, and responsibilities in the
eyes of the College community, parents,
and friends. As the weeks pass, one
begins to feel more and more like a
senior. I remember, as a freshman,
looking up to the senior class, those
sophisticated, knowledgeable, and
soon-to-be-working members of the stu-
dent body. As I reach this point, I
only vaguely feel those things I saw
in the seniors during my freshman
year. Do the incoming freshmen look
at me this way? What do they see
in me that I am too close to recog-
nize?
Four long years we've labored,
Striving for our marks.
Now we're only embers
Where we once were sparks.
Senior Baird Lloxd buys snacks in the Huh.
The senior year is full of things
done for the last time and things
done for the first. This year means
the last Black Cat, so I looked for-
ward to it even more than the fresh-
men. Every passing event means the
last one to by enjoyed or suffered
through. This is also a year of firsts.
Senior clinics, given by the Career
Planning Office, advise us on how
to get into graduate school, how to
write a resume and cover letter, how
to look for a job. Almost all of these
activities mark the beginning of a
totally new life.
We are almost gone now
From these gothic halls.
Onward to a new world.
Full of trials and falls.
People invariably ask, "Now that
you are a senior, what are you going
to do when you get out of school?"
They don't seem to realize that just
being a senior doesn't negate all the
hard work that lies between September
and June. I have to make it to
graduation, first and foremost. This is
not to say that I am not planning
ahead, but this year of school is as
important, if not more so, than the
previous ones.
Proudly marching together.
We have found our way.
Onward to tomorrow
We have had our day I
My college career at Agnes Scott
will end in June, 1983. Now that my
graduation fees are paid and my cap
and gown ordered. I look forward to
graduation with anticipation and some
anxiety. The future, uncertain as it is.
looms large on the horizon, but I
hope to be able to keep in mind all of
the accomplishments that are ack-
nowledged at graduation. This year,
as a senior, is a celebration of the
past, the present, and the future.

Leadership Conference Attracts Volunteers
The 1983 Alumnae Leadership Con-
ference drew 130 alumnae back to
the campus October 28 and 29.
Held each fall. Alumnae Leadership
Conference brings alumnae volunteers
to the College to increase their
knowledge of Agnes Scott today
and thus to enable them to serve
better their special constituencies and
the College as a whole.
During their stay on campus, alum-
nae heard President Schmidt speak
and attended classes and workshops.
Director of Admissions Judith Ma-
guire Tindel "73. Director of the Agnes
Scott Fund Bonnie Brown Johnson
'70, and Director of Career Planning
Libby Dowd Wood imformed the
alumnae about their departments and
charged them to assist. They lunched
with members of the faculty and
Board of Trustees. Following the con-
ference, some alumnae attended the
Blackfriars' fall production. The Rim-
ers of Eldritch .
Alumnae volunteers who partici-
pated in the conference came from
the following groups: Executive Board
members; class presidents, vice presi-
dents, secretaries, and reunion
chairmen; fund chairmen and agents;
club presidents; and alumnae admis-
sions representatives.
Alumnae leaders attend workshops. Top to bottom: Jane Sutton Hicks '76 and Cindy Hodges Burns

%S00,000 More Needed to Obtain Grant
Science Campaign funds rebuild greenhouse .
Alumnae have been responding to
the Kresge Challenge Grant offered
the College by the foundation in Troy,
Michigan. Since the $3,000,000
campaign began in 1981 for the
renovation of the science hall,
$1,950,000 has been received in gifts
and pledges. Another $800,000 is
needed to claim the important $250,000
challenge from Kresge.
In order to keep pace with changes
in science and with new federal
regulations, modernization of Agnes
Scott's science hall has been neces-
sary. According to Dean Julia Gary,
heightened student interest in the
sciences has augmented the importance
and urgency of improving the
building's facilities. Thirty to 40 per-
cent of each freshman class have
indicated great interest in careers in
science and technology.
To claim this significant grant, Agnes
Scott must raise by June 15, 1983,
another $800,000 in new gifts and
pledges designated for the science
hall. Alumnae who have not pledged
gifts to the Science Building Cam-
paign are urged to respond.

Endowment and Other Pemianent Funds
Important Funds Contribute to
College's Ongoing Success
Through the years alumnae and
friends of Agnes Scott have provided
gifts to build the College and to
strengthen its programs. Many of
these gifts have made it possible to
improve faculty compensation, to
increase financial aid to students,
and to add books for the library and
equipment for the classrooms and
laboratories.
Most of the gifts received each
year cu^e unrestricted. The College
can apply them to scholarship
awards or to some other budget
needs. When a gift is designated for
a specific purpose, the College
respects the donor's wish.
Some restricted gifts are made
for the Endowment so that the prin-
cipal will be held intact and only the
income will be used for general or
specific purposes. Gifts for student
loan funds are meeting a growing
need. Sometimes a donor will make a
gift but will select a life-income
plan such as an annuity, thereby
benefiting both the College and the
donor.
Agnes Scott is indebted to alum-
nae and friends for their interest
and generosity in establishing the
following permanent funds for the
College. The amount shown for
each fund represents the total of
all gifts received through Septem-
ber 30, 1982. This list describes
individually all funds of $1,000 or
more, but it does not include
scholarships provided annually by
the donors.
Please let the Development Of-
fice know of any errors or omis-
sions so that corrections can be
made.

36 AGNES SCOTT ALUMNAE QUARTERLY
CLUB REPORTS
President Schmidt prepares to meet with alum-
nae groups.
In addition to carrying out her dut-
ies as Agnes Scott's new president
and fulfilling her many professional
obligations nationwide. Dr. Ruth Schmidt
has already visited an impressive number
of alumnae clubs during a very short
span of time. Between September 23
and October 13 she flew or drove to
five alumnae groups, charming and
delighting each one.
The fortunates so far include Atlanta,
Decatur, Kentuckiana, Minneapolis-St.
Paul, and Savannah. The winter cal-
endar lists New England, December 9:
Washington. D.C., January 13; Jack-
sonville, January 25; Suncoast, January
26; Miami, January 27; Greenville,
February 7; Charlotte, February 8;
Knoxville, March 1; New York, March
10; Delaware Valley, March 24, with
possible dates being worked out for
other cities. If you are in one of the
clubs named, you may want to mark
your calendar for the evening of the
date indicated.
Atlanta
Some 280 alumnae, husbands, and friends
made up the large crowd attending
the Atlanta Club's luncheon September
30. Pots of yellow chrysanthemums
decorated the tables, and President
Schmidt added Agnes Scott's colors
to the occasion by wearing a white-
belted, violet dress. Club President
Clair McLeod Muller '67 presided,
and Vice President Anita Moses Ship-
pen '60 introduced Dr. Schmidt, who
was greeted by a standing ovation.
After graciously acknowledging the
"wonderful reception" and expressing
appreciation for the "privilege of being
at Agnes Scott," she gave a stimulating
and thoughtful address. She spoke of
the changing aspirations of women stu-
dents and said that colleges must
continue to encourage them in their
hopes for choosing their roles in life
but at the same time must build in a
sense of reality about them, "because
the world hasn't changed nearly as
much in terms of opportunities for
women as 1 think our 18 or 20-year-
olds believe when they come to us."
She stressed the importance of socie-
ty's finding an improved organization
of work and nurturing for the future.
"If we have indeed begun to move
away somewhat from the automatic
assumption that women nurture and
men are the breadwinners, we still
need those two functions to be car-
ried out. . . We have not gone very
far in our society in really thinking
through the organization of work. Why
is it that the best jobs are killing
jobs that is, they take more time than
probably one human being should
give to them and why do we not
value the nurturing of children the
way we claim to in our rhetoric? . . .
I think we have a long way to go in
trying to figure out patterns for men
and women in families. How are we
going to keep making sure that we
nurture our children, not neglecting
this important aspect of the next
generation, and yet find satisfying work
in the right proportion and right set-
tings for men and women?" She said
she is "almost daily delighted by
new discoveries of ways in which Agnes
Scott's kind of old-fashioned holding
to standards has now made us almost
avant-garde in education." In her con-
clusion she noted the College's need
for students and suggested "each
alumna recruit one!"

FALL 1982 37
LETTERS
I feel compelled to write to you
about your column "From the Direc-
tor" in the 1982 summer issue of
the Quarterly, because I think you
have distorted the history of Agnes
Scott College and the value all of
its presidents have placed on women
in your enthusiasm over having a
woman as the new president of the
College.
I agree it is time for Agnes Scott
to have a woman president; in fact,
I think it is long past time. Many
students, faculty, and alumnae were
ready to have a woman president in
1973, even if the Board of Trus-
tees was not. Therefore. I think your
statement that President Perry "through
encouragement of women administra-
tors during his presidency . . . provided
a time of transition toward the as-
cendency of a woman whose time has
come" is in need of qualification
and correction. The "encouragement
of women administrators" began with
President McCain, who appointed
women to head some academic
departments an extremely important
administrative office in an academic
institution. President Alston contin-
ued this practice, increased the num-
ber of women holding chairs, and
appointed the first woman Dean of
the Faculty. The 1973 and 1982
College catalogs show that when Dr.
Alston retired there were 10 women
holding departmental chairs out of a
total of 19; in 1982, when Dr.
Perry retired, there were 1 1 women
holding departmental chairs out of
a total of 21. There was no real
change made in appointing women
to chairs between 1973 and 1982.
But in the chief administrative and
supervisory positions there was a change
that does not support your conten-
tion. In 1973, 22 women held chief
administrative and supervisory posi-
tions out of a total of 26; in 1982,
28 women held [such positions] . . .
out of a total of 37. The percent-
age of women holding top adminis-
trative positions in the College actually
dropped from 85% in 1973 to 76%
in 1982. . . .
There is no question but that Pres-
ident Perry brought his own qualities
of leadership to this College in 1973
and continued the unbroken regard
for the value of women that has
always been here. Every president of
Agnes Scott College has valued the
woman: every president has been an
educator in the fullest sense of the
word. To adapt a historian's cliche
to my purpose, let me say that a
College that distorts or forgets its
past simply to accomodate the pres-
ent is doomed to have no future,
because its identity becomes confused
and lost.

I received a questionnaire a while back
from the Career Development Office
concerning students staying in alum-
nae homes while serving as interns
to view "professional" careers such
as lawyers, doctors, dentists, and
engineers. I would like to suggest
that the Career Development Office
also consider making available the
placing of student interns in a home
or homes to observe women with
liberal arts educations who have
chosen careers in homemaking and
raising families. Is there no empha-
sis on this being an important career
any more?
Inflation and the economy are
constantly pushing us, who take our
family lives seriously enough to stay
home to work with our children, to
leave these jobs and go into the
"working" world. Also, other kinds
of pressures those from other wom-
en working, the media, the desire
for more things make us feel that
we are less important than women
who are having careers for pay.
whatever those careers are.
It seems to me that Agnes Scott's
thrust in the Alumnae Quarterly is
more often to the woman in aca-
demics or other paid professions. I
prize my liberal arts education and
am using it daily to teach my child.
to better myself, my church and
community. I read. 1 listen. I learn.
I teach. I always enjoy receiving
the Alumnae Quarterly and reading
about any of our alumnae whatever
they are doing. In addition to enjoy-
ing hearing about those in academ-
ics and paid professions, I would
also like to hear about women at
home nurturing families. It would be
good to know that someone thinks
what we are doing is valuable too!

I found something there a way of

They also found it and wished their
daughters to know the ideals and qual-
ity of life found on the campus in
addition to the excellent academics there.
Dr. Alston said of the College.
"Our roots go deep, but we live in
the stream of the present." Agnes
Scott fosters an appreciation of the
past, prepares for living fully the
present, and engenders dreams of the
future.

FALL 1982 51
From the Director
Set a New Standard
At a recent conference for development
people, those whose ultimate goal is to
advance the outreach of their colleges,
we alumnae directors, as well as public
relations and development workers, were
told that the 80s would be difficult for
small independent colleges for two rea-
sons; first, rising costs, and, second,
declining birth rate. I would like to dis-
cuss alumnae relationship to the first
problem now. In another issue we shall
focus on ways alumnae can introduce
Agnes Scott to prospective students.
Yes, rising costs pertain to colleges
as well as individuals these days. The
expense of operating a college has in-
creased, and foundations are pulling the
purse strings tighter.
Where is the College to turn? To the
alumnae, parents, and friends. The alum-
nae of Agnes Scott are a logical group
to expect gifts from because they are
already indebted to the College. Not only
are they inordinately proud of their Agnes
Scott education, they owe a debt to the
College. Many of us received student
aid and worked a few hours each week.
In the 40s my job was to assist Miss
Laura Steele, who was the secretary to
Dr. James Ross McCain, and I mailed
catalogs to prospective students. Those
students who paid in full for tuition,
room, and board paid only one-half the
actual cost of their education. The same
proportion exists today. Though the fee
charged for one year at Agnes Scott is
now $7,075 (less than the charges at
most independent women's colleges) the
actual expenditure per student by the Col-
lege is $14,000 per year. No student
has ever paid the full cost of her educa-
tion while she attended college. The
only way she can actually pay the debt
she owes Agnes Scott is by giving gen-
erously as an alumna.
Among our alumnae we have those
with independent incomes and those who
are dependent on their husbands for
support. We are hoping both groups will
raise their sights when they consider
gifts to the College.
From the groups of alumnae who are
independently wealthy we need some
$1,000,000 angels, certainly some
$100,000 givers. Many alumnae who
have their own incomes have pledged
$3,000 to the Science Building Campaign
over a three year period. They will be
recognized as "Sponsors of the Sciences"
and may have their own names or names
"in memoriam" inscribed on a plaque in
the foyer of Campbell Science Hall. We
should give as much as we possibly can.
Those alumnae who are dependent on
their husbands for money should expect
the husband to give as generously to the
wife's college as to his own. For her
education has contributed extensively to
the character of the home and the rear-
ing of the children. This considerate re-
sponse by husbands would greatly increase
Agnes Scott's income because many men
set aside hundreds or thousands of dol-
lars to give to their own institutions while
the wives sometimes send whatever they
can save out of grocery money.
Churches, cultural associations, and
colleges have capital funds needs. Our
sister colleges are raising capital funds.
Goucher and Randolph-Macon are in-
volved in $14,000,000 campaigns; Sweet
Briar, in a $12,000,000 drive; Wheaton
and others are preparing for much larger
campaigns. Agnes Scott College is an
important component of our lives. And
we are trying to acquire only $3,000,000
in three years (only six months are left
for pledges to come in). To receive the
Kresge grant, the College will need
$800,000 in new pledges and gifts
before June 15, 1983.
Last year in stressing that alumnae needed
to raise their sights when considering
contributions to the College, we evi-
dently frightened some givers into a state
of not giving at all. For our alumnae
percentage of participation was only 267c.
Though the total amount given by alum-
nae was larger than former years almost
$900,000 and the average gift was
larger $330 only 26% of our alum-
nae contributed. This is not a worthy
record of giving to set before our new
president, who holds so much faith in
the alumnae. We emphasized large gifts
to improve giving habits of alumnae, but
we did not want those who cannot give
large gifts to hold back and not give at
all. We would like to encourage many
more alumnae to give to the College this
year so that our president can go to
foundations and proudly say, "Over 50%
of our alumnae support the College!"
Then her job of fund raising would be
much easier.
I have told President Schmidt that the
alumnae are loyal and supportive. I be-
lieve in us. Now is the time to set new
standards of giving.

Plans have been made for the April 9
inauguration of Agnes Scott's fifth presi-
dent. Dr. Ruth A. Schmidt. Activities
will begin on campus April 6, and the
inauguration weekend will conclude with
the Sunday morning worship service on
April 10.
On Wednesday, April 6, the Lecture
Committee of Agnes Scott will sponsor
"Happy Days" at 8;15 p.m. in Winter
Theatre of Dana Fine Arts Building.
Martha Fehsenfeld and Bud Thorpe will
star in Beckett's drama, considered as
funny as it is rich in language and thought.
On Thursday, April 7, Miss Fehsenfeld,
who is also a director of the Samuel
Beckett Society, a noted scholar of his
plays, and an observer of Beckett's
direction of the Royal Court production
of Happy Days in London, will lecture
at 10:30 a.m. in Winter Theatre on the
transition from text to production in
Happy Days.
At 8:15 p.m. on Thursday the "Inaugural
Celebration Concert" will be presented
by the Glee Club and the music depart-
ment. Throughout these days, the exhibit
in the Dalton Galleries of the Dana Fine
Arts building will be paintings on loan
from the collection of Mr. and Mrs. Harry
L. Dalton and work of the Agnes Scott
art department faculty.
Activities on Friday, April 8. include
a panel discussion on the inauguration's
theme. "Work and Well-Being," and a
reception following the discussion. The
panel will consist of academicians and
business people and will begin at 8:15
p.m. in Winter Theatre. The reception
after the panel discussion will be held in
the Dalton galleries.
On Saturday, April 9, a lecture by
visiting scholar Rosabeth Moss Kanter
begins the day at 10 a.m. in Dana.
Dr. Kanter. who is professor of sociol-
ogy and of organization and management
at Yale University, will speak on "Work
and Well-Being." In addition to her pro-
fessorship at Yale. Dr. Kanter has also
taught at Brandeis and Harvard Univer-
sites and at M.I.T. Chairperson
of the Board of Goodmeasure. Inc..
Cambridge. Massachusetts, she specializes
in helping organizations ensure the ef-
fective utilization of their people. Dr.
Kanter received the B.A. from Bryn
Mawr in 1964 and the Ph.D. in sociol-
ogy and social psychology from the
University of Michigan in 1967.
At 3 p.m. on Saturday, Dr. Schmidt
will be inaugurated in the May Day Dell
(Amphitheater). A reception in her honor
will be held in the dining hall following
the inauguration.
The worship service on Sunday, April
10, at 9:30 in Gaines will officially
conclude the inaugurational activities. The
Reverend Mary Jane Kerr Cornell '74
will deliver the sermon.
Alumnae are invited to all the events
listed above.
WINTER 1983 1
The W)rldly Women of Agne^
By Lind;
The craggy winter-locked old man
loomed over the podium and cracked
his crusty jokes with self-mocking
(and self-congratulatory) gusto;
Better to go down dignified
With boughten friendship at your
side
Than none at all. Provide! Provide!
(or somebody else will
provide for ya!)
The audience that January evening
was crowded close, overflowing the
aisles of Gaines into the loudspieaker-
equipped remoteness of Maclean; but
we responded to the old man's acerbic
pontifications with affection, clapped
warmly, and laughed with the relief
of living the rare evening that was
more than well-spent. Some members
of the Agnes Scott graduating class
of 1962 flushed with the pleasure
of special relationship, for we had
come to this occasion for four years.
(There were those, like the speak-
er, who had been there for twenty!)
We knew we were in the presence
of Poetry, and we were proprietary
even smug! He was, in these mo-
ments, "Our Poet."
Thus Robert Frost, the Califomian
who turned New Englander, and the
Vermonter who turned poet ("Poet
is a praise word," he used to say),
riveted the attentions of our campus
community on the art and living of
poetry for a few days each year
and focused what seemed like the
entire city of Atlanta on Agnes Scott.
He became part of our collective
identity now as then. Subsequent
generations of students have been told
how Agnes Scott's long love affair
with Robert Frost began; how he was
"bribed" into coming to the College,
first in November of 1935, for the
then-princely sum of $500.(X), which
was offered by means of an urgent
telegram when Agnes Scott's inimi-
table Emma Mae Laney grew desperate
because there was no response to
her initial letter. Frost laughed at the
Ruber I Frost visited the campus twenty times.
excesses of her offer later said he
was just slow about returning letters
and seemed delighted that the joke
of his "boughten" friendship was
on her. Miss Laney was well com-
pensated, however, when a belatedly
chagrined Frost sent her a number of
signed editions of his books, which
she then gave to the McCain Library
and the Agnes Scott Special Collec-
tion of Robert Frost's work was begun.
Frost's affection for the College
intensified because of his growing
regard for our long-time librarian.
Edna Byers; because of her as much
as anyone or anything else (It was
surely not the money! It seldom is
with visitors to Agnes Scott!), he
returned to the campus on an almost
annual basis. The last week in Janu-
ary was reserved for his visit, and
he would give his reading to the
2 AGNES SCOTT ALUMNAE QUARTERLY

capacity crowd that had procured their
free tickets well in advance. He
would amble pensively around the
campus by day and continue on his
solitary treks at night. He would sign
books and sip Seven-Up with stu-
dents and prevail in a good-humored
but dogmatic monologue with stu-
dents and faculty in the warmth and
comfort of the Alstons' drawing room;
and at least one English major
sacrificed a grade on a substantial
test in Oriental Art so that she could
be among the lucky students who sat
at his feet one midnight and giggled
partly from nervous awe, partly from
sheer delight at observations made
in that droll, understated, autocratic
manner of his later years.
That was the last of these events,
for in the winter of the next year,
Robert Frost stopped in the snowy
woods and stayed. (My art grade
then seemed a meager price to pay
for being among those in that last
circle of Agnes Scott students at Frost's
feet). But that relationship, fostered
lovingly and wittingly by the Alstons
and Edna Byers and a number of
other Agnes Scott personalities, was
only the principal reason among many
why Agnes Scott students and area
residents alike developed an image
of this College as a place special for
the quality of the encounters with
the great and the talented that it pro-
vided.
And provides ....
T.
his current academic year is
characteristic of all others with re-
spect to its lavish cultural offerings
and prospective friendships. The wom-
en attending Agnes Scott, in 1982-83,
for instance, will have the opportu-
nity in April at the Agnes Scott Writer's
Festival, an annual event of regional
consequence, to woric with poets Donald
Justice, new to our campus this year,
and Josephine Jacobsen, who has been

begged back many times because
she brings such grace and intelligence
to the lecture podium and such joy
to us all in her friendship. In the
fall of this year, our community
enjoyed a performance and master
class by the North Carolina Dance
Theater. This fine young company is
one the professional groups affiliated
with the North Carolina School of
the Performing Arts, and critics feel
that their steady rise to a position
of some dominance in the dance
world is all but assured. The National
Shakesf)eare Company performed King
Lear on our stage in Gaines in Janu-
ary to an enormous turn-out of stu-
dents: reading Shakespeare's great
tragedy in sophomore English classes
has been an Agnes Scott student
experience for decades; for the first
time, our studying and teaching of
WINTER 1983
The Company We Keep (continued)
this play will be enhanced by a live
performance on campus. Samuel
Beckett's Happy Days may draw a
smaller crowd come April, but Marty
Fehsenfeld's production of this play
will constitute an unusual chance for
theater students and buffs to view
Beckett's work from the enlightened
perspective of someone who has
worked closely with the playwright
and his own productions of his plays.
The Kirk Concert Series, only in
its second year, formalizes Agnes
Scott's long-standing commitment to
bringing the finest world-class musi-
cians to the campus, the current
subscription arrangement permitting
the growth and expansion of program-
ming which has been consistently,
even outrageously, excellent. Sensi-
tive and dedicated souls years ago,
under the aegis of the (admittedly
misnamed) Public Lecture Associa-
tion of Agnes Scott College, must
have noticed the sizeable fissure in
Atlanta's musical offerings, particu-
larly where chamber music was con-
cerned. Cultivated and knowing At-
lanta residents came to identify
the College as a place where musi-
cal events of quality and distinction
were offered with dependable regular-
Rudolf hirkusny
ity; Agnes Scott provided, year after
year, opportunities to hear the very
best: the Julliard String Quartet, the
New York Pro Musica, Music from
Marlboro, the Beaux Arts Trio, the
Pittsburg Chamber Symphony, and
(in a series of splendid return en-
gagements) the Guameri String Quartet.
Although the city of Atlanta is by
no means as deficient in its musical
life as it was even a few years ago,
the Kirk Concerts continue to assert
Agnes Scott's devotion to excellence
in all things artistic; they encourage
our young women, and us older ones
as well, to develop the ear for good
music that enriches human existence,
and they provide us all with some of
the most pleasurable evenings of our
academic term. The distinguished
pianist Rudolf Firkusny played one
of the most exquisite concerts ever
performed in the metropolitan area
when he graced our Steinway in
October, and he impressed us with
his graciousness and humanity as
he delighted us with his anecdotes
during informal conservations while
he was with us. (The beauty and
intelligence of the campus apparent-
ly impressed him in response, for
he claimed an interest in Agnes Scott
Josephine Jucohsen
on behalf of his sixteen-year-old
daughter, who is now in the proc-
ess of scrutinizing colleges.) Violin-
ist Henryk Szeryng will celebrate
his Diamond Jubilee at Agnes Scott
in February, and this first concert
to be performed in the United States
during the fiftieth year of his remark-
able career should be an event that
none present will forget quickly. An
extraordinary chamber group, Tashi,
clarinet and strings, will complete
the series of three programs in the
spring.
The responsibility for bringing these
programs to campus is vested with
various individuals and organizations
at this point, of course: the Lecture
Committee, most obviously, as hard-
working descendant of the Public
Lecture Association of early years;
individual academic departments, of-
ten working with the financial under-
writing of Lecture Committee (the
English department, for example,
who sponsored this past October Pro-
fessor Paul Fussell, well-known author
of The Great War and Modern Mem-
ory, with his lecture on "The Fic-
tion of Fact"; or Lawrence Stone,
the distinguished historian from Prince-
ton, whose lecture on "The Origins

of the Modem Family" was a Janu-
ary presentation of the history de-
partment; or the dehghtful Atlanta
Civic Opera performance of Mozart's
' 'The Impresario, ' ' which was arranged
by the music department last quarter);
the president, who has the responsibility
for convocation speakers; her inaug-
uration committee; the Kirk Concert
Committee; and a number of stu-
dent groups who provide suggestions
as well as support for speakers. But
no matter the source, our campus
life is rich with the presence of
these personalities so rich, sometimes,
that scheduling an event on our col-
lege calendar can be the most chal-
lenging and exasperating aspect of
its planning and presentation.
But it is not just the fact that these
events occur that deserves our
notice but the gratifying reality that
in spite of the modest size of our
student body, we can generally depend
on substantial and enthusiastic audi-
ences. Obviously, many of our speakers
and artists perform on other campuses,
but I truly doubt that for students
involved elsewhere the experience
can be as rewarding as it is for our
Agnes Scott women. Probably the
big difference between Agnes Scott's
cultural life and that of larger col-
leges and universities is the degree
to which students and faculty are
engaged in meeting and getting to
know the distinguished visitors to
our campus. When you are one of
five or six hundred and a special
individual is on campus, he is cer-
tainly more yours than he is if his
visit is shared by five or six thousand
or more. We tout our student/fac-
ulty ratio often at Agnes Scott but
this speaker/student ratio should be
commended as well: for our students
have eaten breakfast with Eudora Welty,
have lunched with her on the lawn
of Evans Dining Hall, have observed
an informal media interview in the
afternoon, and then have listened to
her read to the immense public
audiences that she draws to Gaines
(which is all they would have ex-
perienced on most campuses). After-
wards, they may well have enjoyed her
company at a reception (or even pri-
vate party). And so it is, more of-
ten than not. with our visitors: we
expose them to the hospitality of
faculty homes, we dine with them at
local restaurants, we take them in
tow to student hang-outs, we give
them an often-exhausting but plea-
surable stay.
This year, for instance, the Stu-
dio Dance Group, with the generous
support of director Marilyn Darling,
will have graciously entertained the
members of the North Carolina Dance

We thus enjoy the presence of these

the world's most important people
have spent time with our students
and faculty in visits that are differ-
ent in quality from those on other
campuses. Among the personalities
and artists who have expanded our
scope and diminished our potential
provinciality in the last ten or twelve
years alone have been the famous
anthropologist, Loren Eisely; ecolo-
gist, Frank Graham; art historian,
Vincent Scully; actor, Emlyn WiUiams;
historian, Gertrude Himmelfarb; folklorist
musician, John Jacob Niles; chem-
ist, Carl Djerrasi; mythologist, Joseph
Campbell; political debaters like Max
Lemer and Reid Buckley; critic, Nor-
throp Frye; social psychologist,
Jonathan Freedman; distinguished lo-
cals like Dean Rusk, Julian Bond,
and John Portman; productions of
Shakespeare and Greek drama; fem-
inists; theatre critics; Indian dancers;
mime companies; and impressive
writers and artists in residence like
author May Sarton and Sir John
Rothenstein, retired curator of the
Tate Gallery in London.
The past two sessions of the Col-
lege, furthermore, have engaged us
in fullblown projects lasting an en-
tire academic year. Two years ago.
the coming of the Folger Exhibit
on Shakespeare to the High Museum
in Atlanta prompted Agnes Scott's
Festival of the English Renaissance,
an awesome venture which brought
six extremely important authorities
on art, literature, and English his-
tory to the College; it featured a fine
ensemble of musicians and dancers
from New York, who played medie-
val and Renaissance music; it spon-
sored the Acting Company in a splendid
production of Romeo and Juliet (aug-
menting the Shakespearian efforts of
our own Department of Theatre with
their production of Midsummer Night's
Dream); and it saw the campus
transformed for a time as we produced
a Renaissance fair on our own green,
complete with sport and games, feats
of daring, art and music, and the
presentation of Elizabeth herself. We
delighted that special April evening
in a Renaissance banquet held in the
unrecognizable splendor of Letitia
Pate; we all dressed in appropriate'
cosnjme to consume Mrs. Saunders's
elegantly prepared authentic Renais-
sance cuisine complete to the genuine
sugared violets gathered from faculty
homes to provide the adornment for
the dessert cakes.
Last year, a special symposium
on "Women and Mindpower" high-
lighted the opportunities and accom-
plishments of educated women by
presenting a group of renowned and
gifted women, includng the fascinat-
Sir John Rothenstein
ing scientist of shark culture, Eu-
genie Clark; and in a related effort, a
special committee sponsored the
workshop which was to bring Ruth
Schmidt, now president of Agnes
Scott, to our campus for the first
time. The not-so-distant past has
featured a Donne Celebration, a Frost
Centennial, and a couple of Environ-
mental Symposia. The small world
of our campus is a large place.
This enlightened emphasis on
bringing the world of arts and letters
and science and politics to Agnes
Scott began long ago; it constitutes
and extraordinary and noble legacy,
willed by individuals of impeccable
judgment and an unerring sense of
the significant. Consider what the
records of the early Public Lecture
Association reveal. For example, de-
cades before the jargon of formalized
feminism became de rigueur for
women's colleges which did not
possess Agnes Scott's certainty of
vision, Agnes Scott professors, in-
cluding some formidable women
among them, were scheduling lectures
that brought certain of the nation's
most imposing women to this place.
Harriet Monroe, notable among them,
appeared on this campus in 1921,
Max Siirton
6 AGNES SCOTT ALUMNAE QUARTERLY
just a few years after her magazine.
Poetry, regarded as the voice of
contemporary verse in Enghsh, pub-
lished the unknown Eliot's poem,
"The Love Song of J. Alfred Pruf-
rock." There could hardly have been
a woman alive or an individual of
either sex any more important in
the world of letters than she. Just a
few weeks before her appearance
on campus, Agnes Scott students were
listening to Prince Alfonso Louis
DeBourbon lecture on "Women and
Civilization," and a few months
later in the fall of 1921, they would
hear David Robinson's remarks on
Sappho. Mrs. E. N. Blair, chairman
of the Democratic National Commit-
tee, would appear in the spring of
1923. These are just a few of the
lectures cited in the early annals of
our Lecture Committee, and they
demonstrate, I think, the progressive,
forthright, and woman-centered ori-
entation of those early members of
this committee. Clearly, they recog-
nized the value of extending our small
classrooms to include the great teachers
of their time, and they were unself-
consciously ambitious for the Col-
lege in insisting on the intellectual
and artistic quality a first-rate aca-
demic institution requires for so they
perceived Agnes Scott to be. There
is not a light-weight topic among
those listed but they range to in-
clude perspectives on the Far East,
the universe, significant social and
political concerns of this nation, and
contemporary art, music, and letters.
I am impressed to note that follow-
ing Harriet Monroe, Vachel Lindsay,
another of those poets indebted to
Miss Monroe's publication. Poetry,
visited Agnes Scott in 1922. He was
followed by Thornton Wilder, speak-
ing on "Motion Pictures and Litera-
ture," an exciting and provocative
topic for so early a time. Louis
Untermeyer, Edna St. Vincent MiUay,
Carl Sandburg, Andre Maurois, and
Robert Frost were among the distin-
guished literati of the thirties who
came our way. The Irish Players of
Eugenie Clark, shark expert
The Abbey Theatre joined several
Shakespeare companies in presenting
plays. Philosopher, W. Ernest
Hocking, theologian. Reinhold Nie-
buhr, and anthropologist, Margaret
Mead, highlighted the forties; and
with the fifties came such luminar-
ies as Aaron Copland, Pearl Buck,
Randall Jarrell, Katherine Anne Por-
ter, Arnold Toynbee, Sir John Gielgud,
and Madame Pandit. John Ciardi
came in 1961 and a shy Flannary
O'Connor to a precursor of the
current writing festival. Mark Van
Doren, C. P. Snow, Archibald
MacLeish, Peter Taylor, Robert Wal-
lace, Richard Wilbur, W. H. Auden.
and Eudora Welty all made first and
sometimes second appearances under
the auspices of the literary-minded
Lecture Association of the sixties.
Professor Mary Sheats, a former
chairman of Lecture Committee, re-
minds me that almost every biblical
scholar of national note has been our
way. And this is almost equally
true, 1 know first hand, for poets
and novelists. Robert Lowell died,
I felt very inconsiderately, just months
before the visit with him we were
negotiating through Professor Helen
Vendler, an authority on modem
poetry who has been herself on our
campus; but we have had marvelous
days and evenings with Eudora Welty
and Richard Wilbur on return visits,
with Gwendolyn Brooks, Donald Hall,
Robert Penn Warren, Richard Eber-
hardt, Stephen Spender. Howard
Nemerov, Donald Davies, and Mar-
garet At wood.
I haven't dropped many of the
names of the outstanding lecturers
from academe who have come to
Agnes Scott. But for a college of
our size, the list in terms of both
quality and quantity is staggering.
Our students have had the opportu-
nity to "attend classes" by some of
the most distinguished professors at
Stanford, Yale, Princeton. Rutgers.
Chicago, and Harvard as well as
several foreign universities. Some times
these people come for money and
even for the limited exposure that a
small college like Agnes Scott can
provide; but more often than not so
many speakers respond positively
to our invitations because they have
been encouraged to respect this
institution sometimes from far afar
and because they have been led to
believe that we will respect them and
respond to them with the gracious-
ness and enthusiasm that reputedly
characterizes Agnes Scott audiences.
These distinguished colleagues freely
praise our students, and by extension,
we teachers feel reassured about the
work that we are doing.
I have been scheduling lectures a
long time; I suppose my interest goes
back to my student days when I spent
much of my junior year engaged in
lining up "provocative" speakers
for Friday chapel. I enjoyed squiring
around Ralph McGill and the con-

China Revisited
By Nell Allison Sheldon '38
Terra cona charioteer at Emperor Chin's tomb
On a brilliant morning in June
1982, we six Agnes Scott alumnae
posed before the Shaanxi Provincial
Guest Home in ancient Xiao, China,
to have our picture taken. We were
about as far from Agnes Scott as
one can get on planet Earth! We
were ready to board buses to visit
the "archaeological discovery of the
century," a vast underground vault
containing the emerging "terra cotta
army" of Emperor Chin Hsi Huangdi
(200 B.C.). Scientists and peasants
slowly work to uncover the more
than 6,000 lifesize armored battle-
ready warriors and horses stationed
long ago to protect the dead emperor
in his tomb in one of several huge
vaults. They seem to spring from
the ground like specters come alive!
Ambitious, innovative, and ruthless.
Emperor Chin gave his name to China,
unified warring states into a nation
with one written language, and ordered
construction of the Great Wall. Chi-
nese praise him today for his accom-
plishments but hate him for sending
thousands of slave workers to their
deaths at the Wall and elsewhere and
murdering Confucian scholars.
Who were we and why did we go
to China? We were forty-eight Amer-
icans, eager as any tourists to see
the wonders of China, now on dis-
play by the People's Republic of China,
but ours was a tour with a differ-
ence. It was sponsored by the Pres-
byterian Division of International
Mission as a "travel-study tour" and
led by two ministers, one of them
Tommy Brown, husband of Mardia
Hopper Brown '43. Mardia had vis-
ited China as a girl, while her husband,

searching for "roots." Our major
interest was therefore the anticipated
contacts with Chinese Christians. The
other Agnes Scott alumnae were
Anne Thompson Rose '38, Portia
Morrison '66, and Betty LeToumeau
Galyon '68.
All of us were excited over the
seventeen day tour, covering six ma-
jor Chinese cities north to south:
Beijing (Peking), Xian (Sian), Nanjing
(Nanking), Shanghai, Guilin (Kweilin),
Canton, and finally over the border
into Hong Kong. Guided by four
young Chinese, two women from Hong
Kong and two men from China Youth
Travel Service in Beijing, our group
enjoyed very special treatment, staying
at the People's Republic's best ho-
tels (like the Xian Guest house, of-
ten reserved for VIP foreign officials).
How can one describe China to-
day? Vivid impressions flash by the
memory, but the first impression
must be the people. In every city
and town and rural scene, vast num-
bers of people everywhere: walking
broad sidewalks and narrow paths,
riding bicycles and buses and horse-
carts in the north, working with largely
primitive tools in endless fields, fish-
ing in canals and rivers. One can
believe they are nearly a billion! And
the children, in arms, in homemade
carts, led by proud parents and grand-
parents, are especially cherished,
since there must be only one per
family in the present colossal drive
for population control. People were
very simply, even drably, dressed in
sober colored pants and shirts, but
never ragged, and surprisingly clean
and tidy. And nobody appeared hun-
gry-
Another overwhelming impression
was building everywhere, especially
in cities: plain row houses and high
rise apartments springing up to house
the dreadfully crowded, ill-sheltered
people. Whole families live in two
rooms and must share facilities with
Alumnae in China, l-r: Ruth Worth '29. Portia Morrison '66. Anne Thompson Rose '38.

Other families. For all of this, the
sturdy, hardworking Chinese made
no apology and seemed to have pride
in China's accomplishments. I never
heard a boast more joyful than one
girl's assurance that Chinese engineered
the great Nanjing Yangtze River
bridge all by themselves with help
from no one! Apartments rose, vast
fields of grain and vegetables were
tilled, rice planters stood ankle-deep
in flooded fields. And uncounted
thousands of young trees had been
planted along city street and country
lane, in the "greening of China."
Factories small and large hummed.
Of course, the orderly, obedient,
regimented people are locked into a
system where only a very few can
enter higher education, and no one
can choose vocation or residence.
There is no freedom as Americans
know it, but the Revolution is less
blatantly visible now, and the beauti-
ful ballet, opera, and acrobatic shows
entertain with far less political "mor-
al."
And the ancient treasures of China!
Everywhere workmen and artists had
restored brilliant ceiling colors, wall

and roof designs, or were perched
on ladders dabbing at painted eaves,
bringing back art ravaged by time
or war or Cultural Revolution vandals.
We gaped at the sprawling Wall
over the hills; were dazzled by the
perfect Temple of Heaven, blue-tiled
center of old imperial prayers; were
overwhelmed by the vast, wealthy
Forbidden City, home of twenty-four
emperors, embracing 9,000 rooms
full of priceless art; we shivered in
the underground chill in "Ding Ling,"
great stone burial vault of the Ming
emperor and two queens. We lunched
in the "Listening to Orioles Pavil-
lion" in the breezy Summer Palace
outside Beijing; we saw Mao Zedong's
ugly mausoleum in huge Tien An
Men Square and learned that his
cult is fading, while Dr. Sun Yatsen
(whose lofty tomb atop Purple Moun-
tain we saw in Nanjing) is rising
as the people's hero.
We spent a glorious, sunny day
photographing views of the pointed
limestone peaks along the lovely Li
River at Guilin in south China as our
boat floated by, every scene like a
painter's canvas.
Everywhere we looked, we saw
Chinese hands restoring the past, while
struggling to mend the ravages of
the dismal Cultural Revolution. We
saw Chinese eyes looking hopefully
toward the future when China's pro-
duction, industry, and science will
achieve a strong modem nation a
Chinese nation, free of Western
dominance.
The government of the People's
Republic of China is officially atheis-
tic. But in 1979 the ban on religion
and public worship was lifted, and
no one could have predicted the
surge of vigorous life in the Chinese
Church! We visitors made our own
"Pligrims' Progress" of faith, discov-
ering with joy the delight of meeting
and worshipping with Chinese Chris-
tians (rediscovering, for us who grew
up loving the Chinese).
That first Sunday, in Beijing, our
group divided to attend worship at
i
S7 v/-!::^"
Temple of Heaven
two city churches, the Rice Market
and West District Union Protestant
congregations. Chinese Christians
packed the plain sanctuaries to over-
flowing, and we shared fully, tak-
ing communion at the altar rail, singing
familiar hymns in English as others
sang in Chinese, deeply moved by
the strong ties we felt together. Tears
washed my cheeks as I realized it
had been forty-two years since 1
worshipped in a Chinese church. That
same afternoon, we met in a church
building with six Chinese pastors of
Beijing churches and heard them
talk (by interpreter) with warmth and
courage of hardships weathered, di-
vine guidance, and bright hopes amid
jxjverty and trial. The Chinese church
reborn has no denominations and wants
none; it draws on many traditions
and pastors work in teams. More
churches open almost daily for more
than five hundred Protestant congre-
gations in all.
In Nanjing we met with faculty
and some students at China's first
(so far, only) Protestant seminary,
Nanjing Union Theological Seminary,
founded by the China Christian Council,
and heard news of their plans to
train men and women to lead the
emerging churches all over China.
A small smiling woman student said,
"We have much lost time to make
up for, but we love and help each
other. God leads us." They print
their own Bibles and other materials
and ask of American Christians only
their prayers! The first class hopes to
graduate in 1984.
In Shanghai on July 4. our second
Sunday, we wore tiny American
flags and worshipped early in MoEn
Church, the largest congregation, sit-
ting in a balcony above the crowded
sanctuary. Again we shared in beau-
tiful music, prayers, and sermon with
friendly Chinese Christians (this time
in Shanghai dialect, so Ruth Worth
and 1 understood some!) At least
20,000 worship each week in Shanghai.
The head pastor of seven pastors
who serve this large church talked to
us after service, and we exchanged
greetings from our various Presbyte-
rian groups. He told of rapid growth
of churches. An official estimate tal-
lies 3,500,000 Protestants and
somewhat fewer Catholics in China
today. No one really knows, and
no one takes for granted a freedom
which could disappear as suddenly
as it came.
For those of us bom and reared
in China, the climax was of course
in meeting old Chinese friends long
separated. Tom and Mardia met an
old minister and wife in Beijing.
Ruth and I met friends not seen for
forty to fifty years in Beijing, Nanj-
ing, and Shanghai, and our train passed
twenty-five miles from lovely Kiang-
yin on the Yangtze where we were
bom! What memories around a lunch
table in a tiny Shanghai apartment,
what joy in love and friendship still
rich and strong, what assurance that
my teaching parents and Ruth's doc-
toring ones were lovingly remembered!
I finger the smooth sea green
silk dress ordered for me by a Chi-
nese doctor who was my father's
student forty-five years ago and know
that while our China tour went by
like the wind, the memories will never
leave us. God grant that true free-
dom may some day release the
matchless Chinese spirit from its
bonds to show what it can do. The
Chinese people deserve it. i

Your relationship (e.g., friend, relative) to student:.
in my seat as she mispronounced
name after name Sartre, Kierkegaard,
Camus in so distorted a fashion
that even my uncritical ears were
scandalized. I shrank from the back
of Gaines only to run directly into
the awesome Professor Ellen Doug-
lass Leybum, who cast an agitated
eye my way and muttered wonder-
ingly about who could possibly have
arranged for such an embarrassment.
I sort of smiled in sympathetic baf-
flement and disappeared. Perhaps
she never learned; I never told her.
But such rare fiascos aside. I have
been proud to have spent much of
my time at Agnes Scott engaged in
the process of arranging and coordi-
nating public events. I consider it a
high and important calling. I also
consider it fun. As I've often said,
I personally value the contacts with
visiting personalities as perhaps the
greatest emoUument to teaching here:
how else might I manage an auto-
mobile ride with Stephen Spender or
Clive Barnes; enjoy a late supper
with Arnold Steinhardt, not enjoy a
late drink with R. W, B. Lewis, or
have the chance to entertain in my
home an engaging Robert Penn Warren
or a fascinating and frenetic Eliza-
beth Hardwick. It is coping with
Auden's tippsiness that lends drama
to our days or a dinner with Harry
Crews that years later still doesn"t
make acceptable dinner-time conver-
sation. We women and men of
Agnes Scott delight in these incredi-
bly stimulating encounters; without
them, we would be a seriously
diminished place. "Culture,"' said
Matthew Arnold, is "the acquaint-
ing ourselves with the best that has
been known and said in the world,
and thus with the history of the hu-
man spirit." We get it through books,
of course, and through people. And
that BEST (or rather those who can
show and tell it) has come again and
again to our small but important
college in Decatur and pressed our
world to the limits of all that can
be known or felt.i

Tuesday, June 14. Predeparture orientation
at the Agnes Scott Alumnae House. At
Hartsfield Airport we will be the guests of
Lufthansa Airhnes in a special departure
lounge. Our wide-bodied jet will leave at
8 p.m. Arriving in Frankftirt at 11:25 a.m.
on the 15th, we will, after minor customs
formalities, board our comfortable motor
coach that will be awaiting us at the air-
port. A few hours later we will arrive in
Munich, where we will be staying at Hotel
Krone, located on Theresienhohe, near
the famous meadow where Bavarians cele-
brate the annual Oktoberfest. Seeing Munich,
you will understand why it has become
the fastest growing city in West Germany.
It is beautiful, it is a cultural center, and it
is very much alive. From Munich it is but
a short trip to the Alps, to the castles of
King Ludwig II, to lovely lakes and to
romantic forests. We intend to sample some
of the major attractions in and around
Munich: snow-covered Alpine peaks, story-
book Bavarian villages, picturesque churches,
and dream castles.
June 18-19
Crossing the border into Austria, we will
arrive in the Mozart city of Salzburg, Our
hotel, the Winkler, one of the best in
town, will be our shelter Samrday and Sun-
day nights. We will visit the castle, the
old salt mines, places connected with
Mozart and other famous masters of sound,
and we will enjoy the magnificent back-
ground of the Alpine scenery. Musical
events? We are currently waiting for the
official calendar, announcements are
forthcoming.
June 20-22
On our way to the Austrian capital a stopover
at the legendary Weisses Rossel Hotel on
Lake Wolfgangsee is a must, as is a visit to
the baroque monastery of Stift Melk on
the Danube River. Our headquarters in Vienna
will be the stately Hotel de France, located
on Schottenring, within walking distance
to the very heart of the city. Among the
numerous sights to be seen will be Schon-
bninn Casde, Belvedere Castle, St. Stephan's
Cathedral, aRd-*he-Qp3K-H9Bse. We hope
to be able to attend musical events and
to tour museums and historical sites. We
will not forget to sample Viennese Gem-
iitlichkeit, which can be experienced in
any Kaffeehaus or in the many Weinstuben
of the suburb of Grinzing.
June 23-24
After crossing eastern Austria and the heart
of Bohemia, we will arrive in the capital
of Czechoslovakia, Prague, Thursday after-
noon. You will be charmed by the "Golden
City" with its numerous monuments of a
rich cultural past. It has retained much of
its medieval character, reminiscent of the
era when, under Emperor Charles IV, Prague
was the capital of the Holy Roman Em-
pire. If tickets are available we will spend
an evening at the world famous cabaret
theater, Latema Magica. Our quarters until
Saturday morning will probably be Hotel
International.
June 25-27
Shortly after crossing the border of the
German Democratic Republic we will have
a major stopover at Dresden on the Elbe
River, where we will visit one of Germany's
finest baroque castles, the Zwinger. In West
Berlin, where we expect to arrive late Sat-
urday afternoon, rooms have been reserved
for us at Hotel Bremen on Bleibtreustrasse.
Sunday our motor coach will take us on
an extensive sightseeing tour of the western
part of the former German capital. About
one half of the following Monday will be
devoted to East Berlin. Besides seeing the
wealth of exciting attractions in both parts
of the divided city, you will have the
option of browsing in some of the world's
most fascinating museums.
June 28-29
After traveling south on the Autobahn in
the German Democratic Republic, we will
enter West Germany and Bavaria once ag-
ain. We will bypass Richard Wagner's
Bayreuth and reach Nuremberg in the af-
temoon. There you may wish to see the
exhibition, "Martin Luther and the Reforma-
tion in Germany," commemorating the 500th
anniversary of the reformer's birthday. Nur-
emberg's medieval character provides an
appropriate background for our tour's final
stop at Hotel Deutscher Hof on Frauen-
torgraben. After an early breakfast, a short
Autobahn trip will take us to Frankfurt,
where our Lufthansa jet will be waiting for
us. Departing on Wednesday at 12:50
p.m., it will still be Wednesday when we
touch base in Atlanta at 4:20 p.m.

THE INAUGURATION OF

AS FIFTH PRESIDENT OF AGNES SCOTT COLLEGE

Honored guests and college community fill Gaines to witness inauguration .
It was a historic occasion, a mix-
ture of the fine tradition of Agnes
Scott with a foreshadowing of the
future of the institution. Hundreds
gathered to attend the inauguration
of the fifth president and first woman
president of Agnes Scott College,
Dr. Ruth A. Schmidt, on April 9.
President Schmidt appointed an
Inaugural Committee and together they
chose the inaugural theme "Work
and Weil-Being. "' President Schmidt
chose this theme because she is
concerned that ASC develop an out-
side perspective. She said, "There
is a tendency for small places to
become self-centered. We need to
relate to the world."
The four day inaugural celebration
included a concert by the glee club,
a panel discussion, an address by
Dr. Rosabeth Moss Kanter, the in-
stallation, a celebration of the arts,
and a reception. "I wanted a campus-
oriented celebration that would show
off ASC, not just the new president,"
explained Dr. Schmidt.
The ASC Glee Club, Madrigal
Singers, and London Fog Jazz Group
performed in the Inaugural Celebra-
tion Concert April 7. In a special
tribute to President Schmidt, a Span-
ish scholar, the Glee Club sang "Jesu
Dulcis Memoria," written by a lead-
ing Spanish composer, "Guatana-
mera," a traditional Cuban song, and
"Give Me a Love Like Yours."
A "Work and Weil-Being" panel
discussion, held Friday evening, fo-

cused on a variety of issues. Presi-
dent of Wheaton, Alice F. Emerson,
moderated the discussion. Liice Dr.
Schmidt. Dr. Emerson is Wheaton's
fifth president and first woman
president. The panel consisted of six
members: Molly Baskin. project
manager in corporate financial plan-
ning at Coca-Cola; Charles A. Bur-
den, professor of management at
Georgia State University; Angela
Drake "83; Ginger Hewitt-Maurus.
legal secretary and chair of Campaign
Committee of Atlanta Working Wom-
en; William T. Hudson, attorney in
the firm of Harrison, Childs, and
Hudson; and Dr. C. Benton Kline,
professor at Columbia Theological
Seminary and former dean of the
faculty and Bible professor at ASC.
Considered the leading authority
concerning work and well-being. Dr.
Rosabeth Moss Kanter, professor
of organization and management and
sociologist at Yale, spoke Saturday
morning. She is chair of the board
of Goodmeasure, Inc., and counsels
blue-chip corporations including Gen-
eral Electric, General Mills, General
Motors, Honeywell, IBM. and Xerox.
A graduate of Bryn Mawr. Dr.
Kanter said she was "proud to have
gone to a woman's college like
Agnes Scott." She addressed the top-
ics of work and stress, work and
women, and the corporate environment.
She said. "Women who work tend
to have the highest well-being, re-
gardless if they have multi-roles."
The inaugural ceremony was held
Saturday in Gaines, due to inclement
weather. Brightly colored banners
representing 30 campus organizations
donned the hall. Representati\es from
145 colleges and uni\ersities attended
the inauguration, including 22 col-
lege presidents.

the search committee for the fifth
president.
Chairman of the Board of Trustees,
Mr. Lawrence L. Gellerstedt. induct-
ed President Schmidt and presented
her with the Articles of Incorporation.
A portion of President Schmidt's
speech concerned women and work.
She said, "Our society has shown
that it does not truly attribute worth
to the important work of women in
the home by its failure to include
such work in calculating the G.N. P."
She reminded us that "full-time white
female workers are still paid 59^ on
the average for each $1.00 earned
by full-time male workers." Dr.
Schmidt indicated that her important
point was that "in addition to a sense
of well-being personally, we must
consider the importance of work for
the well-being of all."
Dr. Alston gave the benediction.
Following the recessional, guests
were invited to observe the Madri-
gals. London Fog, Studio Dance
Theatre, and the Dixie Darlings, a
new clogging group, before attending
a formal reception held in the Letitia
Pate Dining Hall. Students dressed
as pages, 6,000 purple and white
balloons, and the Georgia State Brass
Ensemble gave the campus a festive
appearance.
Mary Jane Cornell '74 gave the
sermon at the Inaugural Worship
Service, attended by approximately
200 people, on Sunday. Her sermon
also tied in with the theme and was
entitled "Can You Sleep at Night?"
based on Mark 4:26-29.
President Schmidt commented on
the Inaugural Weekend: "It was a
tremendous high point for me. I
hadn't stopped to think what it would
be like to have family and friends
together at this event. It was exhila-
rating."
THE INVOCATION
By Wallace M. Alston
Eternal god, our heavenly Father:
We invoke Thy blessing upon
our coming together at this time and
in this place. As we are met here
today, we gratefully acknowledge that
Thou hast summoned and guided
men and women in the affairs of
Agnes Scott College from the early
beginnings even to the present hour.
We, the successors of these persons
of strong faith and courage, give Thee
thanks for the accomplishments of
the years, particularly for hundreds
of young lives upon whom teachers
and administrators have left their mark.
We would humbly, and yet re-
sponsibly and boldly, rededicate this
College to Thee today. We would
here and now renew the commitment
of Agnes Scott as a liberal arts insti-
tution of quality devoted to the
Christian education of young women.
We would underscore in Thy presence
just now that as an undergraduate
college we have deliberately accep-
ted for ourselves the vocation of dis-
covering truth (God-given always!)
and of focusing truth to the dimen-
sions of developing minds and hearts.
Then, O God, we want Agnes Scott
College to be a vital, creative influ-
ence in the academic community, not
only in Atlanta and the state of
Georgia, but far beyond the bounds
of this campus.
Grant to us, we pray, an under-
standing of what we do here today.
We have come together to ask Thy
blessing upon the relationship of Ruth
A. Schmidt and Agnes Scott College.
As our new president is formally in-
vested and authorized to give lead-
ership to this College, we earnestly
pray for her physical health and
well-being, for intellectual and emo-
tional growth in maturity, for practical
wisdom and an abundance of common
sense. Give her a heart of compas-
sion and the grace of kindness and
understanding. May she seek always
to do Thy will and to accomplish
the ends for which Thou hast called
her to this College. Give her a warm
humanity, a sense of humor, an
honest mind, patience with those who
stumble and blunder a bit, and a
rich friendship with Him Whom Ruth
Schmidt has long acknowledged as
her Master.
Enter Thou with us as we go
forward with this inaugural ceremony.
In the spirit and in the name of
Jesus Christ. Amen.

Greetings to the President
FROM JEAN SALTER REEVES '59, PRESIDENT OF ALUMNAE
It is a privilege for me to represent
Agnes Scott alumnae on this very
important day in the life of the Col-
lege.
For no group, perhaps, is this
event more significant than for alum-
nae. Ranging in age from 104 to
20 and spanning all the four preced-
ing administrations, we, the alumnae,
are in a unique sense, the College's
continuity.
Alumnae loyalty and respect are
based on a personal experience of
those qualities which characterize the
very heart of the College. No one
understands better than an alumna
the integrity of Agnes Scott's lead-
ership, for alumnae appreciation comes
through direct contact with those
individuals who were the personifica-
tion of the ideals of the College
and the interpreters of her vision.
Those privileged to have been stu-
dents here know most profoundly the
value of a college made special by
the quality of its faculty; for who
can speak more personally of inspired
teaching and the exhilaration of class-
room discovery than those whose
own minds were awakened?
Conscious of the importance of
perpetuating the remarkable heritage
which is Agnes Scott's, alumnae
feel today the continued blessing of
leadership and dedication in the per-
son of President Schmidt. It could
be said, with justification, that the
selection of Ruth Schmidt validates
the worth of women. However, far
more faithful to both the breadth of
vision of Agnes Scott and the depth
of character of President Schmidt is
the assertion that in her commitment
to excellence, her vitality of mind,
warmth of spirit, and grasp of that
delicate balance between academic
freedom and religious values, so
basic a component of liberal arts ed-
ucation at this institution. President
Schmidt exemplifies those most impor-
tant human qualities for which Agnes
Scott has always stood.
To Agnes Scott, and to you.
President Schmidt, as you lead her,
alumnae pledge our loyalty, under-
standing, and support.
FROM NANCY CHILDERS '83, PRESIDENT OF STUDENT BODY
It is my privilege and pleasure to
bring greetings from the students of
Agnes Scott College. I would like
to extend a heartfelt welcome to our
new president, Dr. Ruth Schmidt,
and to the new spirit and energy
which she has brought to our cam-
pus. I hope that this new spirit can
be combined with the meaningful
traditions and unique opportunities
which continue to invite students to
learn and to grow in a stimulating
and satisfying environment such as
Agnes Scott. I, furthermore, welcome
you. President Schmidt, to a family
environment where people care about
each other and encourage individual
growth as well as unity as a group.
As a member of this family, you
can work effectively with the imme-
diate College community and all of
our loyal friends who are dedicated
to the well-being and continued suc-
cess of Agnes Scott.
Let me remind you that ours is a
very diversified student body. While
we come from many different geog-
raphic regions, select different majors,
and will choose different ways in
which to spend our post-graduation
years, we all share feelings of re-
spect, gratitude, and love for Agnes
Scott and for the high standards of
academic excellence and the Christian
ideals that are continued here. In
accepting the demanding position of
president of our College, you, too,
have committed yourself to support
these purposes and have already
shown that you are willing to direct
all of your energies towards main-
taining such emphases.
We students appreciate your flexi-
bility, your creativity, and your open-
mindedness. One must be very
flexible in order to make many new
friends (including Indian figures like
Ahwoo and Black Cats who dance),
to adjust to a community which is
as unfamiliar with snow as you were
with the delicacies of grits, and to
be surrounded by students who drink
"Co-Cola" on top of the Hub in-
stead of "soda" or "pop" on their
way to the shore, and all this in
less than one year! With poise and
seeming ease, you have accepted a
new and different lifestyle, and have
been introduced to many different
aspects of our 94-year-old Agnes Scott
family. In turn, you have introduced
to us, as our first woman president,
a new model of determination and
achievement. You have shown that
you can appreciate our heritage, while
emphasizing the necessity of prepar-
ing for our future. Your ideas for
the "channels of creativity" encour-
aged everyone to make suggestions
for improving and strengthening our
College community. You have shown
a genuine concern for student in-
terests and have been willing to meet
with students, for example, in small
groups at breakfast or at special
convocations or on an individual basis
in your office. As students, we are
happy to have as our fifth president
a woman who welcomes our indi-
vidual opinions and suggestions and
who is eager to work together for
the betterment of our "family."
The excitement we students felt
last spring about the nomination of
our first woman president has con-
tinued, and we hope that today's
special ceremony will generate even
stronger feelings of encouragement
and support. Just as the Apostle
Paul greeted the Colossians with love
and respect, on behalf of the stud-
ents, I would like to share these
verses with you:
And so, from the day we heard of
it, we have not ceased to pray
for you, asking that you may be
filled with the knowledge of His
will in all spiritual wisdom and
understanding, to lead a life wor-
thy of the Lord, fully pleasing to
him bearing fruit in every good
work and increasing in the knowl-
edge of God. May you be strength-
ened with all power, according
to His glorious might, for all en-
durance and patience with joy,
and giving thanks to the Father,
who has qualified us to share in
the inheritance of the saints in light.
With our prayers, our pledges of en-
couragement, and our active support,
I extend to you. President Schmidt,
our warmest wishes for your happi-
ness and satisfaction in your work
as we continue to grow, together, as
a family.
FROM MARY BONEY SHEATS, REPRESENTATIVE OF FACULTY
To RUTH SCHMIDT:
You are, for some of us on the
faculty, the first president with whom
we have worked.
You are, for others of us. the
second president with whom we have
worked.
You are, for still others, the third
president with whom we have
worked.
You are, for a few of us, the
fourth president with whom we have
worked.
You are, now, for all of us. the
only president of Agnes Scott College.
As our only president, you deserve
to know what we pledge to you, and
what we expect from you.
We promise to you diligence and
faithfulness in the jobs we have
agreed to perform. We pledge to work
worthily, whether we have the
privilege of tenure or not.
We promise to tend the growing
edges in our students and in our fields,
believing that teaching and research
mutually undergird each other, that
the search for truth and the desire
to share truth are parts of the same
package.
We pledge to you our support,
not only of you but of each other
and the entire College family, with
joy, with respect, with seriousness,
with humor.
We anticipate from you. as our
only president now, that you will be
what you are; a splendid model of
integrity, whom we are proud to have
represent our College: that you will
be what you are: an ardent feminist,
who is at the same time utterly
feminine, making in and for this place
a strong affirmation of the worth of
females.
We expect of you that you will
inspire us to be all we can become,
pushing us. pulling us, providing
for us the resources that will help us
to do together what can be done on
this campus.
And so, Ruth Schmidt, this faculty,
your faculty join with you on your
inauguration day in commitment to
Agnes Scott College, in this favored
spot in the Sunbelt that is for you
and for most of us our adopted
home, to work for its well-being, its
shcilom, in the education of women,
to the glory of the God to whom the
College was dedicated all those
"passing years" and all those great
presidents ago.
FROM ALEX GAINES, REPRESENTATIVE OF TRUSTEES
Nineteen months ago, it was my
privilege to undertake the chairman-
ship of a search committee to identify
the successor to Agnes Scott's retir-
ing president, Marvin B. Perry, Jr.
Our committee received much ad-
vice as to those qualifications we
should seek in our search.
In the final analysis, however, the
committee simply concluded that we
should seek, with divine guidance,
to find that person whom we felt
to be best qualified to lead Agnes
Scott College in its continued quest
for excellence as a "liberal arts col-
lege for the higher education of
women under auspices distinctly
favorable to the maintenance of the
faith and practice of the Christian
religion." Today we are happy that
the person whom we sought was
found, and we thank God for His
guidance in leading us to Ruth Ann
Schmidt.
Your unanimous selection. Dr.
Schmidt, by the Board of Trustees
of Agnes Scott College demonstrates
the enthusiastic support of the trus-
tees, on whose behalf I now greet
you. Agnes Scott has a proud heritage.
Under your leadership, we believe
its future is even brighter, and to
that end we pledge you our support.
We are glad that you are here.
FROM MARVIN B. PERRY, JR., PRESIDENT EMERITUS
President schmidt, Mr. Gellerstedt,
ladies and gentlemen:
It is truly an honor to be with you
on this happy occasion, an occasion
so full of pleasure and promise, and
I am delighted to be able, publicly,
to pay my respects to our new presi-
dent. It would be presumptuous of
me, however, to try to offer my very
able successor advice; I am sure
that she receives plenty of that every
day!
At this inauguration ceremony, we
are indeed "surrounded by a great
cloud of witnesses;" these witnesses,
both living and dead, have shaped
and sustained this College for almost
a century now. A devoted succes-
sion of faculty and students, of ad-
ministrators and trustees and alumnae,
has held Agnes Scott true to her
intellectual and spiritual heritage while
adapting, with courage and imagina-
tion to the changing educational needs
of generations of women. For over
nine decades this College has sought
to set women free free to think
and to learn, free to achieve and to
serve people, and free to serve Him
"whose service is perfect freedom."
But always we have sought to set
women /ree without setting them
adrift.
Lxjng before assuming the leadership
of Agnes Scott, Ruth Schmidt dem-
onstrated, in a distinguished academic
career, her active commitment to
the educational ideals and purposes
which Agnes Scott has held from
the beginning; the pursuit of excellence
and spiritual growth, the motivation
to achieve and to serve.
We are confident, President
Schmidt, that Agnes Scott, with your
able and dedicated leadership, will
continue to serve its students and
through their achievement and service
to give our society leadership in
paths of righteousness and peace.
As your predecessor, I am proud
to salute you today, and, as one of
"a great cloud of witnesses," to
wish you God-speed!
Ceremony of Induction
Chairman of the Board of Trustees L. L. Gellerstedl. Jr.. presenn Articles of Incurponiiuin to
newlv inducted President Schmidt.
It is now my privilege as chairman
of the Board of Trustees of Agnes
Scott College and upon the unani-
mous vote of the trustees to induct
Ruth A. Schmidt into the presidency
of Agnes Scott College.
Dr. Schmidt, I now ask you:
Are you now ready and willing
to assume the responsibilities of the
presidency of Agnes Scott College?
(She answered, "I am.")
Do you promise to support, de-
fend, promote, and carry out the
provisions of the Articles if Incor-
poration of Agnes Scott College and
the By Laws of the Board of Trus-
tees? (She answered, "I do."')
Representative of the undertakings
of the office of president, I now place
in your hands the Articles of Incor-
poration of Agnes Scott College. By
receiving these Articles, you indicate
your acceptance of and dedication
to the purposes and ideals of Agnes
Scott College. (President Schmidt re-
ceived the Articles of Incorporation
from Chairman Gellerstedt.)
And now, on behalf of the Board
of Trustees of this College, I do de-
clare that Ruth A. Schmidt has been
duly installed as the fifth president
of Agnes Scott College, with all the
rights, privileges, authority, and
responsibilities thereunto appertaining.
Ladies and gentlemen: The Presid-
ent of Agnes Scott College
Inaugural Address
Work and Well-Being
By Ruth A. Schmidt
Greetings and welcome to all of
our distinguished guests and to my
family, my colleagues, and friends,
both old and new. We are grateful
for the presence today of so many
representatives of colleges and uni-
versities and of learned societies and
associations and to all who have come
to celebrate the remarkable commu-
nity which is Agnes Scott College.
It is particularly meaningful that
two of my predecessors are taking
part in these ceremonies and that
descendants of the first two presidents
are also with us. They symbolize
the continuity of purpose which is
an important aspect of Agnes Scott's
life. Thank you to all who have
brought special greetings and to
those constituencies which you
represent.
In coming to such an occasion,
I. of course, have reflected on the
persons and experiences of my life
which have made it possible for me
to be assuming the presidency of
this college. The heritage of a be-
lieving family; an educational system
which gave a poor preacher's kid
the opportunity for both undergradu-
ate and graduate education; and the
teachers and friends who have encour-
aged, corrected, and sustained me
through the stages of my life all fig-
ure prominently in my thoughts to-
day.
Although I was bom in another
region of this country and had never
seen this campus before April of
last year, I have come to a College
whose Articles of Incorporation,
which I have just received, clearly
match my beliefs and experiences.
My entire educational and profes-
sional life has been spent in liberal
arts colleges, and I now understand
their crucial importance in our soci-
Work aiid Well-Being (Cuntmncd)

to others. . . than by monetary reward.
ety much more than when I entered
college. I have become an ardent
supporter of women's colleges and
have stated many times that there is
no better place for a woman to be
educated in 1983 than in a good
women's college. And because of
my commitment to Jesus Christ it
is a joy to affirm the Christian herit-
age of Agnes Scott College.
Agnes Scott, like other liberal arts
colleges, is engaged in a highly
practical endeavor: the equipping of
students intellectually, physically,
and spiritually to live life to its
fullest; and work, broadly understood,
is a crucial part of everyone's experi-
ence. I chose the theme "Work
and Well-being" for this inauguration
weekend with the desire that, on this
occasion, we would give serious at-
tention to matters which are intimately
related to the mission of Agnes Scott
College as a liberal arts institution
for women but which also go beyond
our immediate educational purpose
and affect our society as well.
We have been privileged to hear
diverse and enlightening presentations
by panel members Friday evening
and the stimulating address of this
morning. These remarks of mine
may bring you no new thoughts on
the topic, but they will give you
some idea of my views on the theme
and what 1 had in mind in suggest-
ing it.
The most basic connection between
the two words "work and well-
being" is one I heard frequently when
I was growing up. Coming from a
family in which work was seen as
essential and in which all were ex-
pected to participate, I, as a child,
sometimes objected, balked at the
chores to which I was assigned. My
mother then would say to me, quot-
ing Scripture, "If any would not work,
neither should he eat." In those
days before the women's movement
sharpened my consciousness, I knew
that "he" in my mother's quoting
of II Thessalonians 3:10 applied to
me and that my own well-being was
at stake.
Wliat are the relationships between
work and well-being? Clearly, the
connection between work and eco-
nomic reward, the need to earn one's
living, is a fundamental association
referred to in the Scripture mentioned.
Yet a study reveals that 80 percent
of Americans would continue to work
even if they inherited enough money
to live comfortably without working.
Why is this true? Surely there
are additional links between work
and a sense of well-being. Research
shows that people are motivated more
by a feeling of accomplishment, of
finding self-fulfillment, of contribut-
ing to others, of producing something,
than by monetary rewards. And all
of these intrinsic rewards of work
are enhanced by having the opportu-
nity to choose one's work.
The freedom to choose one's work,
or to choose one's responsibilities,
as novelist Toni Morrison has put it,
is vitally important. Work which is
thrust upon a person by virtue of
gender, class, or family expectations
can often be a burden which robs
that work of any personal joy. An
important message of the women's
movement is the legitimacy of ex-
pecting work satisfaction; and work
satisfaction is closely connected to
the freedom to choose one's work.
Traditionally, women have not
been asked whether they wish to do
the cleaning and the laundry and to
care for children. And men have not
had choices about whether or not
they would be chiefly responsible for
the economic well-being of their
families. The rhetoric following World
War II, designed to return women
to the home as the principal place of
work in order to open up jobs for
men who were returning, served the
purposes of the powerful of our
society but not of the women within
it. So rather than being able to
choose their work, women were once
again assigned their tasks: raising
children; cooking, cleaning and wash-
ing; providing transportation for
children to school, music lessons,
and church activities. And then, we
give only lip service to the value of
this work.
If work is defined as an activity
which produces something of value
and if we assess value in terms of
money, we then tend to undervalue
that for which we do not pay. Our
society has shown that it does not
truly attribute worth to the important
work of women in the home by its
failure to include such work in
calculating the gross national product.
It has been suggested that the GNP
would go up twenty-six percent if
the value of homemaking duties
(sometimes estimated at the annual
figure of more than $18,000 for
each full-time housewife) were includ-
ed, but this work does not appear
in the business pages of our newspa-
pers. No wonder that women in
my generation, when asked what they
do, often say, "Vm just a house-
wife." Work for them is defined as
what men do.
Of course, this situation is not
limited to our country. At a
conference last year, a speaker
told of a man in Honduras who
was asked by a social worker if
his wife worked. He said she did
not. But ... the wife arose at
dawn, collected water from the
river and firewood in the forest.

(Charles H. Harrison. "Foreign
Aid That Never Makes Headlines,""
U.S. News and World Report.
Oct, 4. 1982. p. 43.)
On the other hand, fathers I have
known who wish to share equally in
the raising of their children are looked
upon as strange persons and usually
find it even more difficult than moth-
ers to structure their work and home
life in ways which would truly serve
the family best. My understanding
of the women's movement is not
that all women should be working in
jobs outside the home, but rather
that each person or family unit should
have real options in deciding the
pattern of living which is most
affirming for them whether it be
that mother and father both have
full-time employment or that husband
and wife each has satisfying part-
time employment or that one parent
works for pay and the other is the
-principal homemaker. But these choices
must be true choices based on new
patterns. The guilt feelings which
working mothers suffer because so-
ciety infers that they ought to be
with their children constantly and
the opprobrium which fathers remaining
at home with childem are made to
feel must be alleviated. To make this
possible, accessible child-care facili-
ties of quality need to be made
available to single-parent and two-
parent families. We commend an
Atlanta bank's leadership in meeting
this need and recognize that we at
. . . each person or family unit should have real
options in deciding the pattern of living which is
most affirming for them.
Agnes Scott have not yet found the
way.
Think what might happen if gen-
der no longer were a determinant in
the choice of work! We know that
women have been allowed to enter
many professions and vocations from
which they were formerly excluded,
but the patterns of employment and
payment have not changed dramati-
cally even yet. Full-time white fe-
male workers are still paid 590 on the
average for each $1.00 earned by
full-time male workers. (Black women
54(2 and Hispanic women 49c.)
Obviously, these figures indicate that
the work done by women outside
the home is valued less than work
done by men. "Much of the work
that women currently do outside their
homes deflates their self-images."
(Work in America: Report of a Spe-
cial Task Force to the Secretar\ of
HEW. Cambridge, MIT Press, 1973,
p. 58.) It is no wonder that "wo-
men are nearly twice as likely as
men to express negative attitudes
toward their present jobs." {Ibid.)
Women are still employed in stag-
nant jobs, in menial tasks, and in
situations where they are consistent-
ly paid very low wages.
Many women do not have and
have never had the choice of whether
or not to work outside the home;
they must do both. Women of the
working class note the terms we
use have always faced the necessity
of working to add to or provide the
family income and have borne the
double burden, more recently expe-
rienced by middle-class women as
well, of housework and paid work.
And the fact that women are paid less
and bear great responsibility for
child-care has caused the phenomenon
we now refer to as the "feminiza-
tion of poverty." Right now, two
out of every three poor adults in
this country are female and 85 per-
cent of the two million Americans
who live month to month on the
minimum social security payment
are women.
And what of the women and men
who want to work and cannot find a
job? Something is clearly askew when
some people have too much work to
do and others cannot secure employ-
ment. We need the best minds and
compassionate hearts to find the
answers to these human dilemmas.
If women and men had equal oppor-
tunities for education and suitably
paid work, with expectations according
to gender erased, and if they had
access to good child care, we would
then be far along the road toward
true choice of life style for in-
dividuals and families. Most impor-
tantly people would have the
possibility of feeling good about
their choices.
For work to be coupled with well-
being, there must be an element of
choice of work, reward for work,
and freedom to choose more than
once. Perhaps the most important
point I would like to make about
work and well-being is that, in addi-
tion to a sense of well-being person-
ally, we must consider the importance
of work for the well-being of all.
"What will it do for me?"" is
not an inclusive enough question and
neither are, "What will it do for
my family?" or "What will it do
for my city, state, or my country?"
Not even, "What will it do for Agnes
Scott?" is sufficient. Work and well-
being will be truly joined only when
11
Work and Well-Being {Omtmiicd)
we are able to think of our work in
relationship to those who are beyond
our direct knowledge and purview.
As contemporary observers of
American life have pointed out, we
live in neighborhoods segregated
enough that we are able to avoid
seeing the poor even in our own
localities. Christ said, "the poor you
will always have with you."" and we
have used that statement to justify
our comfort about most of the
world's being poor.
Our ignorance enables us to eat
our fast-food hamburgers made from
beef shipped in from countries whose
lands should be producing cereal grains
to feed their own people but instead
are devoted to providing us with meat.
We do not think of ourselves as
privileged for eating hamburgers, but
we are privileged in contrast to peo-
ple in third and fifth world countries,
whose situation is made constantly
worse by our habits of consumption.
As an example, in Central America
and Caribbean countries, with up to
80 percent of the childem under-
nourished, almost half of all the
cultivated land is used to grow the
export commodities of coffee,
bananas, cocoa, sugar, and beef.
And to whose well-being are we
contributing by building weapons we
hope we will never use? Do we
really want to settle for an economy
which can only be viable if we are
prepared for war? Can't we learn to
do with less? A standard of living
we take for granted in the United
States is not our birth-right as
Americans who work hard. We have
no particular mandate to use 33 per-
cent of the world's resources for our
6 percent of the world's population.
We Americans are not providing
an example to the world because,
with the exception of France, the
United States has the most unequal
income distribution of any Western
industrialized country. And our cur-
rent national policies are making the
gap between rich and poor in our
country even wider. White households
and male-headed households will
benefit from the shift of budget and
tax priorities, and the rich will be-
come richer; and the poor, who now
number one in every seven Ameri-
cans, will become poorer.
Our sense of well-being in rela-
tionship to our work will not be

plex world of work. The choice of

complete, and certainly not deserved,
if we merely affirm our right to choose
our work, whether once or many
times. There can be a conjoining of
work and well-being only when the
human family, whatever its particular
geographical location and economic
configuration, is one, and each of its
members is working for the well-
being of all.
And what, you may ask, is the
role of Agnes Scott College in rela-
tionship to these aspects of work
and well-being? Young women en-
tering Agnes Scott come with the
expectation that all professions and
work opportunities will be open to
them. They may not realize that al-
though women's opportunities may
have expanded, their advancement is
still largely controlled by male
definitions of life in the corporate
world. Older students returning to
college have a much better under-
standing of the world that college
graduates face, and they are impor-
tant persons in helping us build in
a sense of reality for our younger
students while keeping their aspira-
tions high. The world has changed
significantly, but not as much as
most 18-year-olds believe.
Agnes Scott graduates are a part
of the educated female work force
which is demanding greater participa-
tion in deciding the conditions and
organization of work. The values which
we have always espoused in a lib-
lifetime, needs the solid foundation
of an understanding of the interrelat-
edness of life, the complexities of
human interaction, of our economic
system, and social fabric, and above
all, hearts and wills attuned to love
and justice. A liberal arts program
can provide such a foundation.
Our students do have legitimate
interest in knowing what work they
will do after graduation, but it is
our task to see that their understand-
ing of their life's work is based on
these tenents: 1) A belief in their
own worth as human beings who
deserve equity and who demand the
opportunity to contribute equally in
our society. 2) A sense of responsi-
bility as American and world citi-
zens to work for justice economic,
political, and personal for all who
live on this delicate planet entrusted
to us.
It will not be the kind of world
we all deserve if we merely edu-
cate women at Agnes Scott to fit into
our old patterns of work and con-
sumption of resources, for there is
much which is not right in our world.
As Robert Goldwin wrote in "The
Future of Liberal Education," (Edu-
cational Record. Spring. 1976, pg.
111-112): "The aim of liberal ed-
ucation is to know the truth, and the
activity of liberal education is to
ask unsettling questions. Liberal ed-
ucation questions what society does
not question: it challenges beliefs that
12
society accepts as true."
How can we provide for the wel-
fare of all people in this world?
How can we sustain those who work
and those who, by virtue of age,
handicap, educational deprivation,
cannot earn a living? Will we in
our advanced technological societies
learn to do with less so that all can
live decently, since our standard of
living can never be the norm for
all? We who have prided ourselves
on fairness and justice for all have
much work to do if we are to make
both work and well-being a part of
the heritage of all. I would like to
live in a society in which gender is
not the determinant of the kind of
work one will do a society which
will provide opportunity for every
person, no matter what color, class,
or sex, to find work which enhances
self-esteem, offers a service for oth-
ers, and brings reward, both financial
and personal.
As Marge Piercy's poem, "To Be
of Use," reminds us:
The work of the world is
common as mud.
Botched, it smears the hands,
crumbles to dust.
But the thing worth doing well
done
has a shape that satisfies, clean
and evident.
Greek amphoras for wine or oil,
Hopi vases that held com, are
put in museums
but you know they were made
to be used.
The pitcher cries for water to
carry
and a person for work that is
real.
I am grateful for the satisfying
and real work you have called me to
do here, and I pledge myself to the
task with joy and ask that you join
me, whether as direct participants
at Agnes Scott or as friends in the
world outside, in the promotion of
a more just society. Let us strive to
make a sense of well-being an inte-
gral part of the work experience of
all human beings on this earth.

Revolution in Progress
3chran
What does Christianity say? Love
one another, doesn't it say that?
It speaks of the generosity of
humanity, of selflessness, of per-
sonal purity, of detachment (from
worldly goods), of the ability t6
sacrifice and to give to others, of
respecting one another, of respect
between parents and children, of
loyalty as brothers and sisters and
as friends. Isn't that what Christi-
anity talks about? I would like all
of us to be like those main prin-
ciples of Christianity. On that day
the revolution in Nicaragua will
have been fullfilled!
Tomas Borge, Nicaraguan Minis-
ter of the Interior and sole surviving
founder of the Sandinista Front for
National Liberation, sf)oke these words
last July to a visiting delegation of
North Americans. We were in Nica-
ragua to soak up as much of the
flavor of that country and its recent
revolution as travel-weary bodies
and interview-inundated minds could
absorb in two weeks. Borge 's words,
and many other signs, seem to indi-
cate that the Sandinista revolution
is something out of the ordinary, pos-
sibly a beacon of hope to oppressed
peoples throughout the Third World.
But critics charge that the Sandinis-
tas are as authoritarian as the former
dictator Somoza, that Nicaragua is
being converted into a beachhead for
Soviet aggression in the hemisphere.
I went to Nicaragua last summer be-
cause I wanted to see for myself
what difference a revolution could
make. Has a right-wing oligarchy
been replaced by left-wing totalitari-
ans? Or is there something new un-
der the (hot, believe me) Central
American sun?
Funded by a grant from the Col-
lege's Professional Development
Committee, I went with nine others
on a tour hosted by the Evangelical
Committee for Development Assistance
(CEPAD), a relief and development
agency of the Protestant churches of
Nicaragua. Although a two week
visit cannot produce an instant expert,
I did gain a deeper awareness of
the twisted tangle of problems con-
fronting Central America. Most of
all, this trip gave me a glimpse into
the complicated and volatile social
forces at work in what we dub, sim-
ply, a revolution. Although I have
no magic formula for predicting the
ultimate outcome of Nicaragua's
revolution, I can share some firsthand
impressions of a revolution in prog-
ress and some reasons I am hopeful
for the "New Nicaragua."
Virtually no one shed tears over
the passing of the old Nicaragua, a
society that approximated the stereo-
typical banana republic. Following
decades of civil war between Liberal
and Conservative factions of the
ruling oligarchy, the U.S. became
interested in this strategically located
Central American country around the
turn of the century because of its
potential as a site for a transisthmian
canal. U.S. intervention culminated
in 1912 with the landing of a
contingent of Marines to ensure sta-
bility and protect American interests.
The Marines stayed until 1933 and
spent the last seven years of their
occupation combating a guerilla
struggle led by populist/nationalist
General Augusto Cesar Sandino.
Upon their withdrawal, the Americans
left behind a U.S. -trained indigenous
force, the National Guard, supposed
to maintain order and to remain
aloof from factional strife. Such hopes
proved to be naive, however, when
Anastasio Somoza, commander of the
Guard, assassinated Sandino during
peace talks and seized power. The
rule of Somoza and his sons, Luis
and Anastasio II, spanned almost 45
years. The Somozas accumulated
by hook or crook a fortune of around
half a billion dollars during their
reign. Anastasio II was only slightly
exaggerating when he reportedly
quipped, "Nicaragua es mi finca"
(Nicaragua is my plantation). Amas-
sing such wealth was a notable, or
notorious, achievement in a country
so poor that one half the children
died before reaching five years of
age and 80 percent of the population
lived in substandard housing without
indoor plumbing.
When peaceful methods of oppo-
sition failed, disenchanted university
students organized the Sandinista
Front for National Liberation in 1961
and waged guerilla warfare against
the dictatorship, initially without much
success. In the seventies, however,
broad sectors of Nicaraguan society
turned against Somoza. including
the churches, influenced by liberation
theology, and the business commu-
nity, unable to compete with the
Somoza's tight grip on the economy.
WTien an earthquake devastated the
center of Managua in 1972, the
spectacle of Somoza and his Guard
cronies enriching themselves off in-
ternational aid shocked many moder-
ate and middle class citizens into
opposition. From 1977 to 1979, pe-
riodic insurrections broke out, pitting
the FSLN and their popular support-
ers ("los muchachos" the kids)
in street-fighting against the Guard.
On July 19, 1979, the revolution
triumphed, and a Sandinista-led Gov-
ernment of National Reconstruction
took power promising a mixed econ-
omy, political pluralism, and a non-
aligned foreign policy.

NICARAGUA: Revolution in Progress (Gmnmiai)
The context of the Sandinista
revolution is not one that inspires
much optimism. Even though I had
read the statistics and experienced
Third World poverty before, nothing
had prepared me for the extent of
poverty and under-development in
Nicaragua. Constant reminders of
deprivation almost overwhelmed me:
whole neighborhoods of cardboard
and scrapwood shanties, women
washing clothes in rivers, buses cov-
ered with riders clinging to the outside
as well as packed within, gasoline
lines and shortages of any imports
requiring foreign exchange, and of
course barefoot, half-clothed children
everywhere. Bullet-riddled houses
and bombed-out buildings (Somoza
destroyed his own factories in spite
before he fled) as well as sidewalk
memorials to fallen "muchachos"
offered grim testimony to the price
tag of the insurrection; 50,000
killed, 100,000 wounded, and $2.8
billion in property losses. Downtown
Managua is just now being rebuilt;
vacant fields, complete with grazing
cattle, and rubble from the 1972 earth-
quake reflect Somoza" s disinterest
in reconstruction. The ruins are home
to Managua's poorest. I especially
recall one family living on the sec-
ond floor of the skeleton of what
had been a four-story office building.
now standing without walls in the
center of town. Elevated and exposed
on all sides, they appeared to all
the world as mannequins in a store
display window.
But the atmosphere in this small
nation is far from one of despair.
Even in the midst of crushing
poverty, there is the sense of start-
ing over, of a second chance; if
not everything is possible, at least
many things that once seemed un-
attainable now are conceivably within
grasp. Everywhere grafitti urge defense
of the revolution, sacrifice for coun-
try, and dedication to reconstruction
with slogans like "They shall not
pass," "Somocismo no, democracy
yes," and "Sandino lives, the strug-
gle continues." Missing are the
usual trappings of underdevelopment;
beggars, prostitutes, petty street
criminals. Three years after victory
the euphoria of the revolution is
gone. The Nicaraguans recognize that
all the initial high expectations can-
not be realized, and the "land of milk
and honey" envisioned in the San-
dinista hymn is not at hand. But if
the magic moment of triumph has
receded, there is still the sober ideal-
ism and visible commitment of a
people hard at work building a new
future for themselves.
Still, there remains at times a sense
of almost electric excitement in the
air, stemming from the release of
energies long untapped or diverted.
A transformation is afoot that could
be described as a cultural revolution.
Signs are abundant that tradition is
being stood on its head. A visitor
quickly realizes that the revolutionar-
ies are a new generation risen to
power, which partly accounts for the
kinetic quality of the society. The
average Sandinista was twenty at the
time of triumph, and the top lead-
ers are mostly in their thirties. Borge,
at 50, is the old man. We talked
to many in responsible positions a
judge, a party representative, union
leaders, a vice minister, the vice
president of the Council of State
(Congress) who appeared to be in
their twenties. Some of the Sandi-
nistas' mistakes, but also their
idealism and dynamism, are attribu-
table to their youth.
Women, too, have risen to the
fore, a new prominence well-earned.
Women accounted for around 30
percent of the combatants in the
insurrection, playing not only sup-
portive roles, but also taking part
in, and leading, combat missions.
Although no women are among the
top nine Sandinista leaders, women
do hold cabinet and other high
posts. And the Association of Nica-
Masaya celebrates Sandinista revolution.

raguan Women, a Sandinista-sup-
ported "popular organization," is
pushing for more, including the
elimination of sexist laws and
policies and the machismo of tradi-
tional culture.
Perhaps most striking is the exal-
tation of the poor, who comprise
the vast majority of Nicaraguans.
Consistent with themes of liberation
theology, the Sandinistas clearly in-
tend for the revolution to "identify
with the poor" and to operate ac-
cording to the "logic of the majori-
ty." Policies to uplift the lives of
the poor include a literacy campaign
that has reduced illiteracy from 50
percent to 12 percent, the preserva-
tion of folk culture and the subsi-
dization of fine arts for the masses,
a shift in budget priorities to spend-
ing for education and health, and
price controls on basic necessities.
My favorite manifestation that "the
tortilla has been turned" is the
virtual abolition of neckties, a
remarkably sensible fashion shift in
Managua, where the year-round cli-
mate approaches that of Atlanta in
August!
The Sandinistas view organization
and participation as the primary
methods of harnessing the previously
neglected talents of youth, women,
and the poor in the struggle for de-
velopment. The popular health
campaigns illustrate the potential.
Using a model borrowed from
CEPAD, the Health Ministry trains
health "brigadistas" in hygiene, polio
or malaria inoculations, and other
simple techniques. These volunteer
workers then return to their homes,
dispensing medicine and teaching
proper health care to their neighbors.
One result has been a reduced infant
mortality rate, down from 121 to 94
per 1,000 births in just three years.
A simple accomplishment like fos-
tering organized self-help efforts
might go unappreciated by most Amer-
icans. We tend to take organized
social life for granted: committees,
clubs, boards, agencies (meetings!)
are part of our everyday experience.
But in Nicaragua, the traditional re-
gime feared social organization and
deliberately fostered isolation, apathy,
and fatalism. After all, people who
can organize to distribute rudimen-
tary health care can also organize to
demand improved benefits or even
to overthrow a government that
neglects public health.
A good part of the heady atmos-
phere in Nicaragua today stems from
the very openness of the revolution.
At times I was awed with the sense
of being in the midst of history
being made. Critical options, some
heroic and others tragic, are still to
be chosen; in short, the final act of
this revolution remains to be written.
Nicaraguans speak of revolution not
as we do, as an event, e.g., the
ouster of Somoza, but rather as an
ongoing process. In fact, about the
thousandth time I heard the "revo-
lutionary process" mentioned, I vowed
never to repeat this overworked
phrase! Now, however, I find some
value in this expression that reminds
us that, in contrast to an older,
more stable society like the U.S.,
so much is still unsettled, fluid, un-
known. One graphic example of the
state of flux still apparent three
years after the old regime's overthrow
occurred when we visited a textile
plant formerly owned by Somoza,
now nationalized. No one could
specify the exact procedures in case
of disagreement between worker
representatives and state-appointed
managers; "dialogue" seemed to be
the final authority.
Of course, the indeterminacy of
the "revolutionary process" has its
potential pitfalls. Established institu-
tions to ensure liberty and democracy
are either lacking, in the formula-
tion stage, or still fragile new crea-
tions. Sadly, the openness of the
Nicaraguan revolution is now being
constricted by attacks led by ex-
Managuans shop in street market.

NICARAGUA: Revolution in Progress {Cnntmn^d)
National Guardsmen launched from
the Honduran border with the openly
acknowledged backing of the CIA.
I am keenly aware that foreign threats
can be used as a pretext to snuff
out liberty. I also know firsthand
now, however, that the "clear and
present danger" of "la contra" (the
counter-revolution) appears much more
real from the vantage point of a
small, weak nation than it does
sitting in the security of Atlanta,
protected by an army larger than the
entire population of Nicaragua. Un-
fortunately, in a state of wartime
defensiveness, freedom does not
flourish, as the history of civil
liberties in our country so amply
demonstrates.
Why are some elements of the
U.S. govermment so opposed to the
Sandinista revolution? In essence,
they believe that Nicaragua has fal-
len to Communism. The reality that
I observed last summer does not bear
out such a contention. Certainly,
many Sandinista leaders are Marxist,
including Tomas Borge, who dis-
cussed religion with us in his office
decorated with crucifixes which he
collects. But the easy formula that
Marxist equals Communist equals
Cuban or Russian surrogate is at
least twenty-five years out of date.
Many Americans persist in believing
that Communism is monolithic despite
such evident contradictions as the
border war between China and Viet-
nam. The media often label Nicaragua
as "Cuban backed" or "Cuban
armed." We rarely hear of the strong
support for Nicaragua by our Latin
American friends such as Mexico and
Venezuela or of the arms aid pro-
vided Nicaragua by France and some
of our Western European allies.
Cuban help for Nicaragua has in fact
been extensive, but perhaps Castro's
greatest aid to the Sandinistas took
the form of advice based on the
lessons of the Cuban revolution. He
advised against nationalizing all
private property and urged the San-
dinistas to avoid becoming dependent

on the Russians.
The complexity of Nicaragua's
revolution does not fit into simple
preconceptions of America vs.
Russia, democracy vs. communism,
religion vs. atheism, good vs.
evil. In Nicaragua the Communists
were no threat to the dictatorship,
having been coopted by the Somozas.
On the other hand, many Christians,
including some priests, were active
participants in the insurrection. The
continuing support for the Sandinis-
tas by many Christians was captured
in a Protestant group's banner at a
fair we visited: "Faith without revo-
lution is dead." That sentiment might
be hard for most Americans to grasp,
but many Nicaraguans are quite
comfortable with their unique blend
of religion and the "revolutionary
process." The great danger is that
policies based on simplistic, either/or
categories will be self-fulfilling: by
attacking the Sandinistas as Commu-
nists, U.S. policy may drive them
into the waiting arms of the Russians.
So far, the Nicaraguan people and
their government remain warm and
friendly to Americans even while
criticizing United States foreign poli-
cy. But as a U.S. citizen, I was
appalled by the near-sightedness
recently noted by Colombian novelist
Gabriel Garcia Marquez in his Nobel
prize acceptance speech. "Why," he
asked, "is the originality so readily
granted [Latin Americans] in literature
so mistrustfully denied [them] in
[their] different attempts at social
change?"
Despite the long odds, I returned
home hopeful about Nicaragua's fu-
ture. The Sandinistas seem sincere
in their desire for "a nation in
which people will be able to partici-
pate to their fullest, to develop the
gifts that God has given to all of us,
and to promote justice," as one
church leader characterized the goals
of the revolution. Most impressive
about the Sandinistas is their will-
ingness to admit mistakes and make
corrections, a rare quality indeed
among political leaders. But the
main hope for a brighter future
lies in the Nicaraguan people, who
liberated themselves through their
own efforts. This experience stands
in stark contrast to some revolutions
in which people were "liberated"
by a party or guerilla band who
fought in the name of the masses but
who promptly, upon victory, became
the new elite. In spite of frustra-
tions and acknowledged imperfec-
tions, the Nicaraguans we met plan
to continue participating in the
"revolutionary process" to build a
truly "New Nicaragua." Whether
talking to people on the streets or in
formal interviews or just gazing at
faces in the crowds, I was most
impressed by the evident determina-
tion of these people to be free and
to forge their own destiny. When
Nicaraguans shout Sandino's slogan,
"Patria Libre, o Morir" (A Free
Country or Death), as they are wont
to do at the slightest pretext, they
mean it.

ALUMNAE/STUDENTS/CAREERS
TWORK
Remember when . . .
You were a sophomore, unable
to decide on a major?
You were a junior, unable to
decide on a career?
You were a senior, wondering
if anyone would hire you?
You were a student at Agnes
Scott, wondering what career
you could pursue with your lib-
eral arts background?
Things have not changed. Agnes
Scott students still express these
concerns. As members of the
Executive Round Table, we strive
to educate ourselves and other
students about career opportunit-
ies. As alumnae, you can help
us in this endeavor by giving us
a "behind-the-scenes" look at
the career you have chosen. How
can you do this? Join the ASC
Network, a group of alumnae
who has offered to assist stu-
dents and alumnae to explore,
enter, and advance in their career
fields. It gives you an opportu-
nity to aid us through a variety
of programs:
SHADOW PROGRAM
Invite a student to spend an af-
ternoon with you in your office.
She'll be interested in learning
not only what you do, but why
you like your job (or why you
don't). She'll want to know the
educational requirements of the
job, what goes on in the office,
and how you get things done.
EXTERN PROGRAM
Give a student the chance not
only to see but to experience
your daily work routine. An ex-
tern would spend an unsalaried
week during school vacation with
you and your colleagues.

INTERN PROGRAM
Challenge a student by creating
a new intern position or filling
an existing one. This longer
"on-the-job" training should pro-
vide a good introduction to a
career field while giving the stu-
dent practical experience at
performing responsible duties. Our
flexible program allows several
options, including taking a stud-
ent on a salaried or unsalaried
basis, part-time or full-time, dur-
ing the academic year or summer.
SPEAKER/ADVISOR/MENTOR
As a "Networker" you might
prefer to assist in other ways,
perhaps as a workshop speaker
or an informal career adviser.
If you are in a position to help
a student or alumna enter and
advance within your organization
or career field, please sign on
as a mentor. A Network of pro-
fessional women who will serve
as mentors for bright, aspiring
protegees remains our highest
goal.
We hope you will consider
becoming a part of the Network.
The only requirement is an in-
terest in helping students and other
alumnae. We need women work-
ing outside the home to be
sponsors and mentors, but we
need all of you who are living
in other parts of the country to
share your knowledge about and
contacts in your area with some-
one moving there and seeking
employment. Your experiences
and friends may be all we need
to get started.

Professor oi Bible and Religion
Mary Boney Sheats Retires
Many recent publications from
Agnes Scott have contained news
items about honors awarded to Dr.
Mary Boney Sheats, such as the
honorary degrees awarded to her
by Austin College in 1980 and by
Presbyterian College in 1983, and
of her selection by the Board of Trus-
tees as the first incumbent for the
Callaway Chair established at Agnes
Scott in 1980. These honors proclaim
more widely what students in the
Bible and religion department, and
many other Agnes Scott students also,
have been privileged to experience
and have gratefully recognized: the
outstanding abilities of Dr. Mary
Boney Sheats as a teacher and a
scholar. The news of Mary's retire-
ment from Agnes Scott in 1983 is
greeted by students and friends of
the College with a mixture of feel-
ings: pride in the many accomplish-
ments of her career, and regret that
further students will not have the
opportunity to study with her.
Mary began teaching Bible at Agnes
Scott in 1949; when Dr. Alston
came to Agnes Scott, he brought her
with him from Druid Hills Presbyte-
rian Church in Atlanta where both
had been serving. In addition to
sharing the teaching of the core de-
partmental courses, Mary developed
a variety of upper level courses span-
ning the Biblical field which give
evidence of her diverse interests and
her expertise as a Biblical scholar.
In teaching the required Bible
course, Mary demonstrated a special
sensitivity. She faced the eager, the
naive, the cynical, and the disinter-
ested students equally with the same
calm resolve that the first task was
to examine thoroughly the Biblical
material under consideration on its
own terms. Her lengthy and carefully-
detailed syllabus made it plain that
a simplistic explication from whatever
perspective would not be adequate.
For those students who persevered,
Mary could provide a wealth of
information and resources. She made
Biblical study interesting in the con-
text of ancient times and highlighted
its continuing relevance for modem
people. Somehow, Mary was able to
convey to students the significance
of faith in her own life without inter-
jecting or imposing her beliefs during
class discussions, thus freeing and
requiring her students to make their
own religious assessments. Her sub-
tlety entertained in the most serious
as well as the lighter exchanges.
In addition to her Agnes Scott
work, Mary was constantly involved
in professional academic organiza-
tions, and in Presbyterian denomina-
tional work at the local, presbytery,
and Assembly levels. She served as
editor and author for numerous cur-
riculum projects, which meant that
frequently she had professional dead-
lines that paralleled her students'
academic ones. (On at least one
occasion, she assigned class papers
for the same day her editorial work
was due, which is an example of
how well she organized her time.)
In addition, she continued to be a
student herself, at one time com-
muting to Emory for Hebrew classes
after teaching her own Agnes Scott
classes, doing post-doctoral work at
Oxford University and attending
seminars in Germany during some
summers. These multiple activities
made her sympathetic to student
pressures but never any less demand-
ing of her students. Mary's energy
in accomplishing many professional
objectives and her top-level involve-
ment in the male-dominated areas
of academic and denominational reli-
gious circles made her an encouraging
example to her students well before
it became the norm to speak of the
need for female role models.
In 1972 Mary and Fran Sheats
were married, and he moved to De-
catur, having retired from his job
in New York. Fran seemed to be
able to do everything he attempted
well, and it was a delight to watch
him dance with Mary at social events
or to dine on the "mixed grill"
he prepared as a specialty sometimes
when the Sheatses had dinner guests.
For a decade Fran enlivened student
and faculty gatherings with his clever
sallies whenever he accompanied
Mary. The College community was
saddened by his unexpected death
in the fall of 1982, after a brief
illness, and by the realization that
the Sheatses' plan for retirement in
a dream house on a bay in Wilming-
ton, N.C., would not be realized.
Mary will be moving to Wilmington
in June where she plans to live
near her three brothers and their
families. However, she will be back
in Decatur in July to teach classes
on the parables of Jesus at Colum-
bia Seminary for circle leaders. It is
hoped that this will be the first of
many returns to Decatur and to
teaching for while Mary clearly
deserves the rewards of retirement,
it is hard to imagine that she will
really stay far from these spheres
where she has been known and highly
valued for many years.
When the ancient Hebrews spoke
of someone's wisdom, or "chokmah,"
they indicated something more com-
prehensive than theoretical knowledge.
They reserved the term "wise" for
those people who were able to inte-
grate their intelligence, abilities, and
skills in productive activity and judged
wisdom to be a gift that ultimately
was rooted in a proper relationship
to God. It seems accurate to say
that Agnes Scott and all those asso-
ciated with the College during the
past thirty-three years have benefitted
from the "chokmah" of Dr. Mary
Boney Sheats. Lauhe Oakes Propsi '64

Served College 46 Years
Mary Walker Fox '36
The official duties of one of the
most dedicated members of the Agnes
Scott community will end this spring
with the publication of the 1983-85
College catalog. Mary Walker Fox
'36 has served Agnes Scott faithfully
over the past forty-six years. Her
length of service is the longest of
anyone currently employed by the
College.
Mrs. Fox exemplifies the ideals
of Agnes Scott College. To those
who know Mary Fox, it is obvious
that the three most important things
in her life are her family, her Chris-
tian commitment, and Agnes Scott.
In her work and studies, Mary Fox
is serious and conscientious. Nothing
less than perfection is acceptable to
her. However, away from her desk
or laboratory, she is a most delight-
ful and vivacious lady. Her sense of
humor and her love of life are a
joy to all who are associated with
her. Her friendship is one of my
greatest treasures. Her understanding
of and sincere concern for others
make Mary very special and have
contributed much to her success as
a teacher.
Mary Fox, a native of Atlanta, is
a graduate of Girl's High. She came
to Agnes Scott as a freshman in
1932. Always proud of the academic
standards of both Girls' High and
Agnes Scott, she received her B.A.
with honor in 1936 and was elected
to membership in Phi Beta Kappa.
A chemistry major with a minor in
English, Mrs. Fox has continued to
utilize her knowledge and talents in
Contributions

ment Office, Agnes
Scott College.
each of these disciplines throughout
her years at Agnes Scott.
Following graduation, Mary Fox
served as secretary to St. Mark's
Methodist Church. In 1937 she re-
turned to Agnes Scott and assumed
responsibility for the introductory
chemistry laboratory. She was an
assistant in chemistry 1937-1941,
1942-1944, 1952-1958, and an
instructor in chemistry from 1958
until her retirement from the faculty
in 1979. Since 1977 she has held
the position of editor of the catalog.
In addition, Mrs. Fox served as sec-
retary to the president for a brief
period during Dr. McCain's adminis-
tration. She also served for two years
as secretary for the beginning of what
is known today as the University
Center in Georgia under the direction
of Philip Davidson. She is currently
recording secretary of the Grand
Jurors" Association of DeKalb
County, Inc.
It was as a freshman chemistry
student that I first came to know
Mary Fox. Perfection was the key
word in her immaculate laboratory.
The exacting measurements and
careful attention to the smallest details
made her laboratory a real challenge
to beginning chemistry students. The
standards of her laboratory were well
known, as shown by the following
exerpt from an article by Marion T.
Clark in the spring 1977 Alumnae
Quarterly:
Long before I came here to
teach, one of the most impres-
sive things I had heard about
chemistry at Agnes Scott was
that even the freshmen in chem-
istry weighed their samples to
the fourth decimal place!
Dr. Clark also captured the atmosphere
of her laboratory by stating:
. . . this learning experience is
accurately enhanced when it is
performed with Mrs. Mary
Walker Fox looking over your
shoulder and threatening any
faux pas with multiple extinc-
tion.
>^f^VK
For the past six years, I have had
the opportunity to work closely with
Mary Fox as she edited the college
catalog. Her "eye for detail" trained
by her years in the chemistry labo-
ratory and her knowledge of grammar
have combined to produce excellent
editorial skills. Her commitment to
the traditional standards of the Col-
lege have resulted in catalogs consis-
tent with the quality of Agnes Scott.
Throughout her years at Agnes Scott,
Mrs. Fox has given freely of her
time and talents in numerous ways
including serving as chairman of
Sophomore Parents' Weekend and as
treasurer of the Beta of Georgia
Chapter of Phi Beta Kappa.
At the same time, Mary Fox has
devoted much of her life to the work
of the Decatur First Methodist
Church. In addition to writing and
editing the history of the Decatur
church for the sesquicentennial cele-
bration in 1973 and teaching num-
erous Sunday school classes and
women's groups, she has served as
lay leader of the church, as secretary
of the administrative board, and as
a representative to annual conference.
Recently, she was honored by being
presented with two life memberships
in the United Methodist Women.
An alumna said to me last week,
"Mary Fox represents the best of
Agnes Scott." That is indeed the
truth. She will be missed on the
campus as her official duties come
to an end this spring. However, I
am confident that her contributions
to and her love for Agnes Scott will
continue. Lea Ann Grimes Hudson '76

Dr. Susan Phillips
Speaks to Phi Beta Kappa
On APRIL 27 Agnes Scott's chapter
of Phi Beta Kappa held its annual
ceremony and banquet at the East
Lake Country Club, initiating thir-
teen new members into the chapter.
Phi Beta Kappa, founded in 1776, is
a college and university honor society
that encourages scholarship in the
liberal arts and sciences. It has been
a part of Agnes Scott since 1925,
when the charter was granted, mak-
ing Agnes Scott the 102nd of all
colleges admitted to the honor soci-
ety and only the ninth woman's col-
lege to be selected.
At the ceremony the chapter initi-
ated the following seniors and
alumna: Beverly Ellen Bell. Amy
Susan Craddock, Pamela Ruth
DeRuiter, Elizabeth Ann Gilreath,
Carolyn Rose Goodman, Brenda Gael
Kitson, Cecily Lane Langford, Patri-
cia Lee Anne Leathers, Amy Irene
Mortensen, Elisabeth Ruth Smith,
Susan Ann Sowell, Charlotte Frances
Wright, and Susan Meredith
Phillips '67.
Following the ceremony, social
hour, and dinner, the chapter honored
five members who will not be re-
turning next year. They are Dr. Don
Young of the math department. Dr.
Claire Hubert Whitehill of the French
department. Dr. Mary Boney Sheats
of the Bible and religion department,
Mary Walker Fox '36, editor of
the College catalog and former chem-
istry instructor, and Pat Amzen '80,
assistant to the director of admissions.
Next, Susan Phillips '67, new
member and the first woman appoin-
tee to the federal Commodity Fut-
ures Trading Commission, spoke.
She gave a ringing testimonial to the
value of a liberal arts education and
amused the audience with stories of
her career and jobs related to it. Dr.
Phillips is currently acting chairman
of the commission and its senior
member.
Diedre La Pin '67 was the other
alumna elected by the chapter to
membership, but she could not be
present for the initiation. She is a
member of the faculty of the Uni-
versity of Arkansas and this year
has been guest professor at the Uni-
versity of Pennsylvania at Philadel-

McNair Writes History
Lest We Forget: An Account of Agnes
Scott College by Walter Edward
McNair. Tucker Castleberry Printing.
Available in hard cover ($15) or paper
($10), Agnes Scott College Book-
store.
The title itself conveys a motiva-
tion for recording the rather remarkable
history of an institution approaching
its centennial. The product of tedious
hours of reading records and memo-
rabilia, this book uniquely chronicles
the College's history. It is the story
of a college founded and led through
trials and achievements by a succes-
sion of men and women with vision
and uncompromising dedication to
common goals and standards of ex-
cellence. This book has the added
dimension of being a valuable refer-
ence. Nowhere is there compiled in
one place more information about
the College. Complete transcripts of
important actions give a reader the
opportunity to understand the evolu-
tion of various policies.
When all is said and done, there
is a singular humanity in the Agnes
Scott history. What the faculty wrote
about Miss Hopkins applies to others
who genuinely gave of themselves:
her "... association with this college
is the moving record of mortal life
putting on immortality through the
identification of personal hopes and
satisfactions with the large impersonal
aims and achievements of a great
cause."
Thanks to the labors of Dr.
McNair, many will not forget and
will have a richer understanding of
a distinguished college where people
"have always tried to think in terms
of the long future." Mildred Love

Prize for Drama for her play, 'Night.

ninety-minute confrontation between
an aging mother and her adult daughter,
who announces her intention to com-

Wins Pulitzer Prize
the mother desperately tries to talk
her daughter out of her decision.
'Night. Mother had its world pre-
miere last December at the American
Repertory Theatre on the Harvard
University campus. In February the
play won Miss Norman the annual
Susan Smith Blackburn Prize, given
to a woman playwright for a work
of outstanding quality for the English
speaking theater. 'Night. Mother
opened on Broadway March 31 and
has been praised by a number of
critics. Dann Byck, Marsha's husband,
is one of the producers of the New
York show.
Miss Norman's Pulitzer Prize
comes five seasons after Jon Jory,
Actors Theatre of Louisville produc-
ing director, directed her first play.
Getting Out. That premiere had a
capacity audience, which gave Mar-
sha and her cast a standing ovation.
The play won enthusiastic reviews
from both Louisville and New York
critics. Marsha was twenty-nine when
she wrote the play, and it drew
upon her experience working with
emotionally disturbed children at Cen-
tral State Hospital in Louisville.
Third and Oak. Circus Valentine.
and The Holdup complete Marsha's
five plays. The Holdup, a western
comedy based on tales told Miss
Norman by her grandfather, is playing
at the American Conservatory Thea-
tre in San Francisco. She is now
working on the book and lyrics for a
musical, The Shakers, in collabora-
tion with the composer, Norman L.
Berman.
Before writing her first play. Miss
Norman taught for six years in the
Louisville and Jefferson County school
systems, taught in a program for
gifted children at the Brown School,
was director of a federally funded

Catherine Marshall 1915-1983
Internationally known author and
certainly one of our best known
alumnae, Catherine Wood Marshall
LeSourd, '36, died March 18, 1983,
of heart failure in Boynton Beach,
Fla. She was the author of eighteen
books which have been translated
into more than thirty languages and
have sold over eighteen million cop-
ies.
Catherine first came to national
prominence as the widow of the Rev.
Peter Marshall, the Scottish-bom
Presbyterian minister who served as
chaplain to the U.S. Senate from
1947 to 1949. Mr. Jones Meets the
Master, a volume of her late hus-
band's sermons, immediately became
a best seller upon its publication in
1949. Her book, A Man Called Peter,
was also a best seller in 1951,
and, in addition to becoming Twen-
tieth Century Fox's most successful
motion picture of 1955, it also fo-
cused international attention on Agnes
Scott through its reference to Cath-
erine's college years and the movie's
being filmed on campus.
In 1959 she married Leonard
LeSourd, executive editor of Guide-
posts. She and Leonard founded
Chosen books, a publishing company
that handled her work and that of
other authors of inspirational works.
In 1979 she founded the Intercessors,
a non-profit ministry of prayer.

Letters
I wanted to write a note to a retired
faculty member about a matter of
mutual interest and found I hadn't
the foggiest notion of her non-college
address. Wouldn't this be a good sec-
tion to include in the next alumnae
directory? After all, those of us who
support the College do so because
of those faculty members.
In addition, thanks so much for
the article on Roxie Hagopian.
Trudy Florrid van Luyn '59
Castle Hayne, North Carolina
Dear Sally,
Your letter {Alumnae Quarterly, fall
1982) deserves the attention of all
feminists and a fuller response than
I can give here. You raise so many
of the issues that press upon women
now.
It seems to me that it would be
irresponsible these days for an edu-
cational institution to teach women
that a full-time career as a wife and
mother is a feasible one. As you
point out, the economy is pushing
mothers out into jobs; what you
don't point out is that less than 10
percent of women have the luxury
of your choice. The rest work. Some
of these are primary breadwinners;
others work to maintain the family's
lifestyle or to make ends meet; some
of them are divorced (two of five
marriages end in divorce these days),
some widowed, some abandoned,
and some prefer to remain single. If
ASC women don't prepare for work
in the paid economy, what will hap-
pen to them when they are divorced,
widowed, abandoned, or if they de-
cide to be economically independent?
It's simply good sense to prepare
to get a good job.
The value of homemaking is another
matter. In our society, bearing and
raising children is women's work,
and it is socially necessary. (Clearly,
a society won't survive without chil-
dren raised to be good citizens).
But it is unpaid work. And, unfor-
tunately, our society values and
empowers those who produce goods
and services in the paid economy
more than it values those who do
not. (The phrase "just a housewife"
was in use long before the women's
movement began.) All the articles
in all the Alumnae Quarterlies in the
world will not change this fact. If
women's work in the home is to be
valued, it must be recognized as
socially necessary. Anyone who stops
to think of it must see that home-
making is valuable to our society;
all the more maddening, then, that it
is not valued. Uppity women unite!
Libby Potter '69

I've just finished a biography of Henry
Adams by Elizabeth Stevenson written
in 1955. In the front she acknowledges
help from Mrs. N. E. Byers, librar-
ian at Agnes Scott, and Miss Lillian
Newman of the library staff. I am
curious to know if Miss Stevenson is
an alumna of the College.
I found the book fascinating,
showing great sympathetic insight into
Henry Adams's character, life, and
friends .
Mary L. Beagle
Oneida, New York
Editor's note: Yes. Miss Stevenson is
an alumna of Agnes Scott, class of
1941 . Miss Stevenson is certainly an
accomplished writer having also writ-
ten The Crooked Corridor: A Study
of Henry James; Lafcadio Heam: A
Biography; Babbitts and Bohemians:
The American 1920s; and Park
Maker: A Life of Frederick Law
Olmsted. She has edited A Henry
James Reader. She has been working
on a book about the northern Rockies.
When I received the ASC question-
naire, I sat down to fill it out,
thinking this was a brainless, fill-in-
the-blanks job with which I could
relax. The first page was fine, but
then the second page loomed before
me and I knew I was going to have
to admit that my "principal occupa-
tion" was what was politely listed
as "homemaker."
I was filled with anger and frustra-
tion. Perhaps I could lie and check
"art/architecture" since I teach two
classes a week of art lessons. Perhaps
I could be obnoxious and check
"education, health profession, reli-
gion," since that's what a mother
does. But I knew soneone would ask
me about that if I did, so I humbled
myself and checked "homemaker."
By that admission it would seem I
am saying that I am a homemaker
(i.e., household drudge), who, un-
able to have a career or even hold
down a job, has been forced to have
two babies and stay at home with
them, thereby disgracing ASC and
all that it stands for.
I moved from that defensiveness
to logic (I hope). The babies were
not forced upon me; I had them
joyfully and praise God daily for
them. In the second place, I had a
job before them and most likely I
could have kept it or found another,
but I really don't want a job at this
time. One of the main reasons I don't
is that I think no one else is capa-
ble of raising my children the way I
want and that belief is due partially
to my education.
First, I have read and continue
to read every book on child-rearing I
can lay my hands on and I am able
intelligently to sOrt out that which is
bunk and what makes sense. Second,
I can challenge my children's intelli-
gence daily. I hear their questions
and I can help them get answers.
Third, I can assure my daughter
and teach my son that, yes, girls
can play baseball, climb trees, or
drive a "Dukes" car. Contrary to
some ideas I run up against, girls
don't always have to be pristine
"mommies" or refer to male good
buddies as "their little boy friends,"
Finally, I hope I am teaching them

Alumnae House Hostess Sought
The director of alumnae affairs is interviewing applicants for the position of
Alumnae House hostess. The Alumnae Association would like to find a settled
woman, who will assume responsibilities of taking reservations, meeting
guests, and depositing rentals in the Business Office in exchange for a small
furnished apartment in the Alumnae House and meals in the College Dining
Hall during the academic year.
Please address inquiries to: The Director of Alumnae Affairs, Agnes Scott
College, Decatur. GA 30030.
Send Questionnaire
The college thanks all the alumnae
who have completed and returned
their questionnaires. At this writing
some 3,000 have been returned.
These questionnaires help the College
in admissions, career planning, and
fund-raising, in addition to providing
many new address changes. These
questionnaires will facilitate the pro-
duction of an alumnae directory in
the not too distant future. The Col-
lege encourages all alumnae to
complete and return their question-
naires; doing so will save the Col-
lege money by decreasing the number
of necessary follow-up question-
naires and letters.

my morals, as they live with me and
see and hear my reactions to daily
problems. So, call it "homemaking"
if you will; I do cook and occa-
sionally I clean up, but that's not
my primary occupation. Rather it is
being a mother, and I would be
foolish if I feel shame on that
account.
The survey is fine; it serves a
purpose, but when you see my an-
swers, don't despair. I have not let
ASC or myself down. I am doing
the job I have at the present to the
utmost of my ability, an ability that
I trust was tested and encouraged
at ASC. And I'll wager that wedged
in between all those corporation
presidents and missionaries are a few
other "homemakers"who should be
allowed to enjoy and have a certain
amount of pride and respect in their
present occupation. And when these
babies grow up, we will move on
to something else, knowing that we
have done one not-so-glamorous job
to the best of our ability and are
ready now to apply those energies
44
outside our homes. Please survey us
again in a decade.
Ellen Phillips Smith "75
Tucker, Georgia
Editor's Note: You bet we will! By that time
you can say you have had the best of two
worlds. We respect motherhood.
Something way overdue in the editorial styl-
ing of the ASC alumnae magazine is the an-
cient practice calling women professors who
have a Ph.D. "Miss" or "Mrs." while men
with a Ph.D. are invariably referred to as
"Dr." In the winter '83 issue, page 2, you
refer in "The Worldly Women of Agnes
Scott" to "Miss Laney." Emma May Laney,
who was one of my professors in the '40s,
had a Yale Ph.D., as good as any other Ph.D.
earned by anyone else, man or woman at
Agnes Scott, perhaps better since she did her
dissertation under Karl Young, one of the
most eminent Chaucerian scholars of this
century.
When I attended Agnes Scott, before ERA
and NOW, in 1941 to 1945, it was, alas,
customary to call all male professors who had
the doctorate "Dr." while all women, regard-
less of their degree, were called "Miss" or
"Mrs."; none were called "Dr." although
almost all women who taught me had earned
a Ph.D.
Surely we are at a point now to realize that
this time-honored distinction constituted an
invidious and discriminatory practice. Either
we should call all men "Mr.," as was the
practice at Yale, where I earned my own Ph.D.,
calling all women "Miss" or "Mrs." and
basing this distinction purely on marital status,
or if we use the title "Dr." for men
who have earned their degrees, we must use
it equally for women of the same achieve-
ment. Anything less implies that scholarly
achievement among women has inferior or no
significance. Is that what we wish to convey
to Agnes Scott students'? I think not.
Inge Probstein '45
Lansdowne, Pennsylvania
Editor's Note: Touche. Inge. You may recall
that I was in Dr. Laney' s English 211 class
with you. I sat fourth from the right, just
under "Miss Laney' s" snapping finger. She
was never called anything else, and I plead
guilty to not even thinking that I should have
edited the "Miss" to "Dr." Believe me,
both the College and the Quarterly try to be
careful about equal treatment. Thank you for
speaking out!
From the Alumnae Director
Virginia Brown McKenzie
You Can Help!
Because of the steadily declining number of
high school students in America today, every
one of the nation's colleges faces a challenge
in recruiting enough freshmen to keep en-
rollment stable. Until 1995, this difficulty
of fewer high school students to draw from
will continue to present problems for admis-
sions offices in colleges and universities
throughout the country. So. in addition to ask-
ing their alumnae and alumni for money,
institutions of higher education are seeking
help from these alumnae and alumni in identi-
fying and bringing in good students.
Helping with this job will be easy for
Agnes Scott alumnae, for we already know
we have a valuable product to sell. We alum-
nae know from personal experience about
the quality education that is available at Agnes
Scott College about the superior faculty,
individual attention, and leadership opportu-
nities; about the space and time for develop-
ment. If we turn our energies toward increasing
the pool of students who will apply to Agnes
Scott, we shall be performing a great ser-
vice for our alma mater.
In order to provide you with some spe-
cific ideas, listed below are six of many ways
alumnae can help the Admissions Office.
1. Learn about the College today and talk
about it. An informed alumna's recommendation
is significant.
2. Send in names of high school students,
your daughters and friends' daughters, so
that the Admissions Office can begin mailing
information about the College directly to them.
3. Bring students to the College. A visit to
the campus provides a favorable impression.
4. Offer assistance to the Admissions offi-
cers when they travel to your area. Your
personal contacts with students and high school
counselors can open doors.
5. Agree to make contact with prospective
students. A telephone call or a note from
you can be influential.
6. Volunteer to represent the College at
high schools in your area. This takes special
training and attendance at Admissions work-
shops.
In the College's search for qualified stu-
dents, the alumnae are the best resource avail-
able. Won't you begin your service to Agnes
Scott College now by filling out the form
below and returning it to: The Director of
Admissions, Agnes Scott College, Decatur,
Georgia 30030.

Salute to Paul McCain
By juhetie Harper 77
FOR THH past fourteen years, Paul
Moftatt McCain has effectively and
efficiently served Agnes Scott as
Vice President for Development. During
those years, the College received
$16,800,000 In gifts, and five of the
College buildings were improved and
renovated. Dr. McCain has worked to
encourage gifts to Agnes Scott, bringing
contributions to the present
average of $1,000,000 a year. The
College's 1982-83 fiscal year boasts a
combined giving total, from all constitu-
encies, of $2.5 million, one of the largest
in the College's historv'.
Included m the $I6.'800.000 raised
during Dr. McCain's tenure are moneys
from two complementary campaigns. In
1981 the College met a National Endow-
ment for the Humanities challenge and
raised $1,000,000 for the humanities,
half of which is for library acquisitions
and half for professional development of
the faculty. A three-year. $3,000,000
campaign for the renovation of the sci-
ence building and for the purchasing of
new science equipment was completed
this past June 15 with a challenge grant
from the Krcsge Foundation. As Dr.
McCain says. ""These two campaigns
covered the breadth of the liberal arts."
Paul McCain has worked with three
presidents and has been responsible, with
them, for the upgrading of several cam-

'82-'83 Fund Report
Combined Gifts Amount to $2,491,235
June 1 5 was a day of celebration at Agnes
Scott. The College had qualified for the
$250,000 Krcsge grant and thus reached
its $3,000,000 goal in the Science Hall
Campaign. Gifts and pledges of alum-
nae, friends, businesses, and foundations
had made this success possible. In this
two-year drive 3,197 alumnae provided
more than half of the goal.
The College owes special thanks to
the Campaign Chair, L. L. Gellerstedt,
Jr.; the Campaign Committee; Helen Gates
Carson "40, Alumnae Chair of the Agnes
Scott Fund; and the hundreds of alum-
nae, husbands, and others who contacted
prospects and wrote letters for support.
During the past year the combined
gifts of 4.465 alumnae, students, parents,
friends, businesses, and foundations to-
taled 52,491,235. one of the largest in
the College's history. This sum includes
By Paul M. McCain
$717,089 in gifts from 3,023 or 32 per-
cent of the alumnae. These amounts
include not only the gifts for the science
campaign but also for endowment,
scholarships, equipment, and many other
improvements.
This year 1 13 business firms contributed
$56,437 to Agnes Scott as they matched
the gifts of 216 donors who were employees
or had other qualifications. Although
most of these firms matched dollar for
dollar, a few matched on as much as a
three-for-one basis.
Except for those who preferred to
give anonymously, all individuals, foun-
dations, and businesses who made their
gifts directly to Agnes Scott are listed
on the following pages. These donors
made their gifts to the College from
July 1. 1982. through June 30. 1983.
Gifts received after the latter date will
be shown in the report for 1983-84.
The names of individuals who have only
made pledges will be shown as they
make their payments.
The Tower Circle is that group of
individuals whose gifts were $1,000 or
more, the Colonnade Club includes those
who gave $500 or more, the Quadrangle
Quorum for donors of $250 or more,
and the Century Club for those who
gave $100 or more. Double asterisks
(**) are for donors who are now deceased.
Please let the Agnes Scott Fund Of-
fice know of any corrections which may
be needed so that we can be sure our
records are accurate.
To worker and donor alike, the en-
tire College community welcomes this
opportunity to thank you and express
appreciation for your fine response!

14 ACNLS SCOTT AlA'MNAfc QUARTtRLY
The President's Report
1982-83
In contemplating the past year, my first
as President of Agnes Scott College. 1
have a great sense of gratitude to God
and to the community which is Agnes
Scott for a very fine beginning in my
new responsibilities. 1 continue to believe
that this is God's place for me to serve,
and the learning and experiences of these
months have confirmed that awareness as
I come to know more deeply this won-
derful College which has been entrusted
to us all. There is a sense of relief that
1 can now be classified as a sophomore
rather than as a new arrival on this
campus, and it is a good feeling to be
less ignorant about this College than I
was in the summer of 1982. Settling in
the redecorated President's House is a
process now fortunately completed, and I
am glad to be at home.
There is. of course, still much to learn;
many alumnae to meet; and I am sure,
a vast array of Agnes Scott and Southern
traditions yet to be discovered and un-
derstood. But a beginning has been made,
and I look back on my first year at
Agnes Scott College with a great deal of
joy and satisfaction.
The high point of the year for me
personally, and perhaps for the College
as well, with all constituencies contribut-
ing their time, creativity, and interest,
was the presidential inauguration. Since
the event was well reported in the last
Alumnae Quarterly. I shall not take this
space to reiterate the details of the week-
end of April 8-10. Suffice it to say that
the responses to the issues incorporated
in the inaugural theme of "Work and
Well-being" continue to be positive.
and we shall continue to emphasize the
interrelatedness of the liberal arts with
life-long opportunities and responsibilities.
A few weeks after the inaugural cere-
mony. "Ruth's Roast" provided a great
deal of fun and camaraderie as a student-
led program at dinner reviewed (and
invented!) various aspects of the President's
life and parodied the inauguration. As
Dean Martha Kirkland expressed it in
her annual report. "While the inaugura-
tion of our fifth President was the high
Presitfent Rulh Schmidi
point of the academic year, many stu-
dents felt the roast of our fifth President
was the ultimate of their creative activi-
ties. The pomp, the pageantry and the
intellectual challenge of the inauguration
were an inspiration, but the joy. camara-
derie and fun of being with Dr. Schmidt
in an informal setting boosted the spirits
and gave the students a special insight
into 'their President.' "
Certainly the successful completion
of the $3,000,000 Science Hall campaign
ranks very high on the list of signifi-
cant events at Agnes Scott this year. The
Vice President Rickard Sci
science hall renovation project was
essentially complete by the beginning of
the academic year, and. with the excep-
tion of the purchase of some equipment,
all work, including the installation of a
new elevator, was accomplished by the
beginning of 1983.
Two visitors to campus helped us em-
phasize the importance of science educa-
tion for women. President Paula Brownlee
of Hollins College, a chemist by profes-
sion, gave the Honors Convocation speech
in September, and Visiting Professor Mar-
jorie Homing of the Baylor College of
Medicine spent several weeks on campus,
her visit to us made possible by a grant
from the Dreyfus Foundation. Professor
Horning worked with science students,
consulted with our faculty (particularly
the host department of chemistry) and
gave a public lecture planned as part of
an evening's celebration of the renovated
Science Hall. What Atlanta calls a snow
storm, and what even this Minnesota-
born President would deem a very slip-
pery evening, forced cancellation of the
dinner for our Sponsors of the Sciences,
but a campus audience heard Dr. Mor-
ning's lecture and toured the attractive
facilities of the "new" Science Hall.
Because the weather kept Dr. Wallace
Alston, in whose first year as President
the Science Hall was opened, from being
with us, I used his 1951 dedicatory
prayer to rededicate the building.
With gratitude to all of our supporters,
and especially to the alumnae who are
responsible for giving and pledging
almost half of the $3,000,000 required
for this renovation, we celebrated on
June 15, 1983, the wonderful response
to the campaign and the claiming of
The Kresge Foundation challenge grant
which provided Agnes Scott with $250,000
as the final portion of the $3,000,000.
Alumnae and campus workers in the
campaign toasted our success, using small
new beakers. We are well aware that
this fund drive has revealed not only
many donors who care about Agnes
Scott but also many effective fund-raisers,
chiefly among our faithful alumnae in

The President's Report (c
(iminued)
Atlanta and around the country. One of
the reunion classes. '43. raised $100,000
in order to name a chemistry laboratory
in honor of Dean Carrie Scandrett '24.
The mini-campaign in Greenville. South
Carolina, was perhaps the most as-
tounding in the increase in alumnae
contributions, and. along with special
efforts in New York. Washington, and
Charlotte, we believe that we now have
the beginning of a network of trained
alumnae volunteers.
In addition to the successful completion
of the campaign, the other effort of
greatest importance involving the entire
campus has been the recruitment of
new students for the fall of 1983. A
very small entering class in the fall of
1982 made it clear that we can no longer
be complacent. Although we have
thousands of requests for information con-
cerning Agnes Scott College as a result
of our direct mailings, a higher percent-
age of these inquiries must be turned
into applications. A lower yield (the per-
centage of students accepted who decide
to enroll) than usual in the fall of '82
contributed to a small class of entering
students, affecting total enrollment for
the next four years. In order to meet
this situation, the admissions process was
changed slightly, and we set a goal of
152 first-year students for the fall of 1983.
Students who had applied for financial
aid were given estimates of assistance
within a few weeks of their acceptance.
These changes in procedures helped us
to achieve our goal by June of 1983.
It is quite clear that the role of the
Agnes Scott family, and particularly
our alumnae, will be crucial in recruit-
ing a student body sufficiently large for
efficient operation of this institution in
the years ahead. The number of stu-
dents in the 18 to 22-year age range con-
tinues to decline. In our adaptation of
the Laubach literacy campaign slogan,
we are requesting that "Each one recich
one." that every Agnes Scott alumna
Give this brochure

Agnes Scott
student.
contact at least one potential student,
including women beyond the traditional
college age. We know that only 49c of
those inquiring about Agnes Scott who
have no contact with alumnae actually
apply, whereas 13% of those who have
some knowledge of an alumna make
application. 1 urge you to see that
the "search piece" inserted in this
Quarterly is in the hands of a pro-
spective student five days after you
receive your issue.
Financial aid policies under which
we operate are being constantly adjusted
and refined in order to make the best
use of the considerable resources of the
College. We continue to meet full stu-
dent need, putting the opportunity to at-
tend Agnes Scott within every student's
grasp, no matter what her economic
situation. The Parent Loan Program
has enabled middle-income families to
borrow from the College, spreading pay-
ments over a five year period for entering
first year students. In the Honor Schol-
ars Program, of 35 candidates interviewed
on campus during a special weekend.
15 accepted our invitation to enroll as
Honor Scholars, and four non-winners
also enrolled.
Attempting to meet a need long rec-
ognized by campus people for increased
academic and administrative computer
facilities, some significant steps have been
taken this year to ensure that Agnes
Scott provides for its students, faculty,
and staff appropriate contemporary tools.
A team of educational computer consul-
tants visited our campus in April, filing
a report which in large part is now im-
plemented. The eagerness of our faculty
and students for more computers on
campus has led us to provide 13 addi-
tional microcomputers, nine of which will
form the first academic cluster on the
ground floor of the library. The appoint-
ment of Associate Professor Thomas
Hogan of the Psychology Department as
half-time Coordinator of Academic
Computing has proved to be essential in
the effort to make computers available
to all students. We expect to hire a
Director of Administrative Computing to
lead us through the complicated process
of computerizing administrative functions.
At the end of the 1982-83 fiscal year,
we were heartened to receive a chal-
lenge grant from the Jessie Ball duPont
Religious. Charitable and Educational
Fund in Jacksonville. Florida, which
promises $125,000 if we raise $374,000
for our needs in administrative and aca-
demic computing within the next two
years. This challenge will form a significant
part of our fund-raising efforts in the
immediate future.
In addition to acquiring computer skills,
faculty members are participating in pro-
fessional meetings and securing summer
grants for their own studies, updating
and expanding their knowledge for trans-
lation into even better undergraduate
instruction. The successful completion
of the NEH challenge campaign brought
$1,000,000 in endowment for the libra-
ry and for the professional development
of the faculty. We are now beginning
to see how much this kind of encour-
agement can mean to faculty members
with increased responsibility to explore
knowledge in their respective disciplines.
Three faculty members and Dean Julia
Gary spent three weeks as guests of the
Lilly Foundation in Colorado Springs this
summer, developing a program for Agnes
Scott's best students which the> will
present to the faculty in the fall. Another
faculty team visited Wheaton College
in Massachusetts in June, where I had
the privilege of seeing the fruition of a
dream initiated three years ago in my
previous position as Provost of Wheaton.
(My first visit to Agnes Scott College in
April of 1982 was as the Director of
Wheaton's project "Toward a Balanced
Curriculum.") Significant progress in
the development of a gender-balanced
curriculum, incorporating the new re-
search on women and transforming the
beginning liberal arts courses to reflect
this new knowledge, was shared in a
conference of representatives of sixty
institutions of many types. Not often
does an educator have the opportunity
to see such immediate and far-ranging
results as have occurred at Wheaton.
We are anticipating various foims of
inter-institutional cooperation close to
home as well, as faculty and students
respond to the challenge issued by
Founder's Day speaker President Donald
Stewart of Spelman College to share
the respective strengths of two women's
colleges of national reputation in
Atlanta,
Improvements in student facilities made
in the last year include smoke detectors
in dormitories and closed circuit TV
monitoring of parking lots. In the area
of student services, career-minded women

are making ever greater use of the Ca-
reer Planning Office programs for test
analysis, internships and extemships,
and informational presentations on cam-
pus. Our graduates face an uncertain
world where women do have wider choices
but not equal opportunities in spite of
an outstanding education.
The quality of our educational program
at Agnes Scott depends on the strength
of people, and we note with congratu-
lations those whose achievements have
been recognized officially in the last
year. (A list of personnel changes for
1981-82 as well as subsequent changes
is provided because no presidential report
for 1981-82 was published.) Dudley W.
Sanders was promoted to Assistant Pro-
fessor of Theatre and Eloise Carter to
Assistant Professor of Biology, effective
with the 1983-84 session. Assistant Pro-
fessors Steven A. Haworth (Political
Science) and Terry S. McGhee (Art)
join the tenured faculty in the fall of
1983.
Even as we greet new faculty members
who enrich our community each year,
we regret the loss of esteemed and expe-
rienced colleagues who retire. We shall
surely miss Mary Boney Sheats who re-
tired in June as Professor of Bible and
Religion after 34 years of outstanding
service to Agnes Scott College. Profes-
sor Sheats and Mary Walker Fox '36,
retiring a second time from Agnes Scott,
first from the Chemistry Department and
now as editor of the college catalog,
were honored at a reception for faculty
and staff in May and presented with
Agnes Scott chairs. Replacing Mary Sheats
as the Callaway Professor is her colleague
Professor Kwai S. Chang who also chairs
the Department of Bible and Religion.
The Board of Trustees continues to be
chaired ably and devotedly by Mr. L. L.
Gellerstedt, Jr. We shall miss retiring
Board members Diana Dyer Wilson '32
and JJarry A. Fifield as we welcome Mar-
garetta Lumpkin Shaw, Class of '52, as
a new Trustee. Dorothy Holloran Addi-
son '43, Elizabeth Henderson Cameron
'43, Jacquelyn Simmons Gow '52, and
John E. Smith, II, all of whom began
their terms as Trustees this year, have
already proved their effectiveness on an
ever-stronger and more involved Board
of Trustees.
The Board is participating in the Col-
lege's self-study process under the direc-
tion of Davison Philips, as a part of
the regular ten year accreditation process
sponsored by the Southern Association
of Colleges and Schools. The campus-
based steering committee for the entire
effort is ably led by Professor Michael
Brown and is composed of faculty, staff,
and students. Although a new President
would not choose to be involved in
such an elaborate procedure in the first
year, the material and thoughts gener-
ated by reevaluation provide a perspective
from which to develop a cohesive cam-
pus plan to take us to our centennial
year of 1989. Providing historical per-
spective on Agnes Scott is the book
published this spring by Dr. W. Edward
McNair, Lest We Forget.
Whether our experience of Agnes Scott
spans decades or is limited to one year,
we know that the heritage this College
enjoys forms the solid base on which we
build a heritage of excellent liberal arts
education, with a Christian perspective.
I am confident of the support of the
wide Agnes Scott family and the friends
who join with us as we seek to
translate the legacy of the past into
contemporary terms for women of all
ages who are today's students.

32 AONtS SCOTT ALUMNAE QUARTERLY
From the Vice President
for Development and Public Affairs
$774,000 Needed for 1983-1984
As the new Vice President for Development
and Public Affairs I have had the opportunity
since July to discover more about what Agnes
Scott College is. What I have learned is that
Agnes Scott is more than just buildings, it is
people: students, faculty, alumnae, staff, and
friends who have a commitment and a concern
for continuing a rich heritage. Agnes Scott is a
lifetime experience for students to discover,
for faculty to encourage, and for alumnae and
friends to sustain.
Throughout its history, Agnes Scott has
charged tuition which covered less than half
the cost of a student's educational expenses.
Today, this remains true. What alumnae and
friends give in financial support makes up the
difference. You, our alumnae, form the living
endowment of the College without your sup-
port we would not be able to continue our rich
tradition of academic quality.
The cost of maintaining high academic in-
struction is increasing the pressure on the budget
at a rapid pace. In fact, for the 1983-84 aca-
demic year over $400,000 in unrestricted gifts
is needed simply to balance the budget. With
the support of our alumnae and friends we
intend to surpass this goal and grow toward the
future.
In addition to the Agnes Scott Fund, the
College is undertaking a special project to
raise $374,000 to match the duPont challenge
grant. These funds will be used to provide
academic and administrative computer capabili-
ties.

A great college, such as Agnes Scott, is
the sum of what its students have experienced,
produced, and taken with them. Agnes Scott
College is not uniquely Agnes Scott because
of what it is today. It is what it is because of
the sum of the incredible mixture of alumnae,
students, faculty, staff, and friends. Education
is the living embodiment of a college's past,
present, and future, and the best and most mean-
ingful education must be preserved in a col-
lege or it will lose its identity and its heart.
Agnes Scott College stands for but one sim-
ple, extraordinary thing: Distinctive Education
for Women. Please stand with us through your
financial support.
