he stands in the graveyard silence of a frozen, barren
basin, bereft of color and wind-whipped into harshness
at the foot of glacier- covered mountain peaks. Powerful winds
sweep away overcast skies to unveil jagged snowcapped moun-
nature forms and land forms. The
Himalayan trek locked me into thinking
tain tops which cut into sapphire blue
skies. A 21-day trek brought her to this
destination, a trip which evoked emo-
tions inside her from fear to elation.
Feeling victorious from the sheer accom-
plishment of getting to the top, she stops
and absorbs the stark beauty of the
landscape.
Agnes Scott art professor Terry
McGehee spent part of her sabbatical
leave in November 1982 trekking in the
Himalaya mountain range to Mount
Anapurna. Her life-changing experience
produced arru'ork which was first exhib-
ited at the College during January and
now travels to Houston, Tex., for a
show in April.
Terry's desire to do the 150-mile trek
came from her sense of adventure and
love for the outdoors. "I'm just now ad-
dressing the importance of my love of
about land forms in ways I've never
dreamed about. It's been a year since the
trek, but I may be addressing landscapes
for the next 10, 20 years. Even my nudes
turn into landscapes because I see the
body, the human figure, as part of the
land."
Terry is not a typical artist, she will ad-
mit. She does not make art to decorate
the walls of Atlanta law offices and bank
lobbies, although much of her work is
displayed in such places. Her purpose in
creating art is to express her feelings that
result from her personal experiences.
"The older I get, the more important
art becomes to me not only because
it's a form of expression but because
it's where I do a lot of my healing. It's

College?
For most women, a 27'year tenure as teacher and Dean of
Agnes Scott College would bring ample career satisfaction.
But at 54, Dr. Julia T Gary yearned for change. This June
she leaves Agnes Scott to enroll as a student in
Emory University's Candler School of Theology on
her way to becoming a Methodist minister to the
elderly.
"It's a long way from chemistry teacher and dean to
minister, but I'm off! I'm excited, I'm offi" she ex-
claims. Her decision to retire early and begin a new
career surprised everyone but her pastor, the Rever-
end Garnett Wilder, of Decatur First United Metho-
dist Church. Since she joined Decatur First in 1971,
she has worked in every leadership positic^in available
to a lay person, including chair of the administrative
board, which is the ruling body of the church.
"She's a marvelous Christian person," says Dr.
Wilder. "She's been a wise counselor to me and a
source of strength to this congregation. She brings to
her tasks a high degree of intelligence, Christian com-
mitment and mature judgment."
Dean Gary would like to work with the elderly as a
staff person of a large church or for one of the de-
nomination's agencies. She will be 58 when she grad-
uates from theology school, but she says, "I'll ha\e 10

good years that's a relatively short career. But if it's
good in quality, what difference does it make what
difference?"
She has few illusions about the difficulties she will
face. "One of my students asked me if my ego could
stand it no large office, no secretary. I've enjoyed

relatively short career But if it's good in
quality, what difference does it make

the prestige of the deanship of Agnes Scott thoroughly
and completely. Now, I'll be with people the same age
as my students," she says. "1 wonder if I can still write
a term paper?"
There was nothing dramatic about her decision, the
dean explains. "I have been restless for the past three
or four years. I was interviewed for other deanships
and college presidencies, but none sounded good to
me."
Her answer came little by little. "I asked myself,
'Who in the world is better able to do something dif-
ferent?' I have no responsibility to anyone. I'm finan-
cially able to survive for three years. I have a strong
sympathy for the elderly," she adds, smiling. "My
knees are creaky I'm getting there myself." Her
students tell her she'll be doing "peer counseling."
"This is a long way from anything I ever thought
about," says Dean Gary. "It was not a career that was
available to us when I came along. Today the number
of women in the ministry is growing by leaps and
bounds. I know I'll encounter some negative feelings.
After all, I'm a woman and I'm olden But I was the
only woman chemist in graduate school. I coped with
it then and I can do it again."
Dean Gary counts the Return to College Program
as her most notable achievement at Agnes Scott.
"In this program, the College has made a posi-
tive statement about its commitment to women. This
is a college for women; this is what we are about."
This quarter the program has 59 women, she notes.
"They are a real addition to the College."
She also takes pride in her work overseeing the $1.5
million renovation of Buttrick Hall and the $3 million
renovation of Campbell Science Hall, for which she
participated in the selection of the architect and
contractor.
In recognition of her contributions to the College,
particularly to the study of science, the Trust Com-
pany Bank has named in her honor the chemistry lec-
ture room, where she spent much of her teaching
career at the College. The room's renovation was
funded by the Trust Company of Georgia Founda-
tion, the Walter H. &l Marjory M. Rich Memorial
Fund, the Florence C. &. Harry L. English Memcirial
Fund and the Harriet McDaniel Marshall Trust.
Dean Gary's career includes service under three
Agnes Scott presidents, each of whom found her
invaluable. "She has a strong mind and is very
frank and honest," said Dr. Wallace Alston, who led
Agnes Scott from 1951-1973. "If she finds her point of
view doesn't prevail, she'll go along with the group.
She's a team perscin."
'*Ji
Dr. Marvin Perry Jr., Agnes Scott president from
1973-1982, described Dean Gary as a "fine scientist
and better read than most humanists. She was a gooc
right hand to me. It's typical of her outlook and
energy to start a new career She brought to her post ;
marvelous sense of humor and fun," he remembered.
"She can laugh at herself."
She has had to. Most Black Cat skits feature an im-
itation of her distinctive North Carolina twang. She
once turned the table on one of her imitators, Mary
Gay Morgan '75, by bringing down the house with a
takeoff on the student in a Black Cat Revue.
Dean Gary credits her unfaltering good humor to
her gardening. She lovingly tends some 30 rosebushes
every day. "You can't think bad thoughts when you're
digging in the dirt," she says.
ulia Gary was well-fitted for the deanship
both by birth and by training," Dr. Alston
believes. The daughter of a Henderson, N.C,
banker, Dean Gary attended Randolph-Macon
Woman's College. "She will sing the alma mater in
Latin with no encouragement at all," quips Bertie
Bond, a friend and associate at Agnes Scott. Dn Gar>
earned a master's degree from Mount Holyoke Colleg
and went on to receive her doctorate in chemistry
from Emory University. Dr. Alston promptly hired
her as a chemistry instructor at Agnes Scott.
"I thought I would stay a year or two," she recalls.
"But the College got a hold on me. I liked the school
and the people, and the teaching was exciting."
When Dr. C. Benton Kline, then Dean of the Fac-
ulty, needed help, Julia Gary filled in for him two
afternoons a week. In 1966, she spent a sabbatical
year at the University of Illinois as visiting scientist.
When she returned, she had to choose between chem
istry and the deanship when Dr. Kline left in mid-yeai
Dn Alston tapped her as acting dean.
"Some people voiced real objections, real reserva-
tions about a woman as dean, but Dn Alston though
it might be all right," she remembers. She was made
Dean of the Faculty in 1969. The title was changed in
1979 to Dean of the College.
Looking back, she sees more flexibility now in the
academic programs and the students' social life.
"The faculty is much younger and now half men
and half women. When 1 first came, there were a grea
many strong, unmarried women. Now the number of
single women is small." The faculty reflects the outsid(
world, she says. "The faculty now makes a li\ing
wage. The students are not \ery different they, too,
reflect the changes taking place in the world."
When she leaves her post in June, she plans to
spend six weeks cleaning out the bookshelves and "re-
orienting my house to a new kind of life." Claiming
she hasn't had a vacation in a long time, she also
plans to sit down and put her feet up.
"Dean Gary has served this College well and she
will be greatly missed," President Ruth Schmidt told
the College community upon announcement of Dean
Gary's resignation. "I will miss her both personally
and professionally. I salute her for her great spirit, her
contributions to the life of this College and the exem-
plary person that she is. She leaves us w^ith a rich heri
tage of commitment to the highest standards of
excellence in academic and extracurricular life."

their twenties to one who is 64.
They take one course or a full load.
They may be married, divorced, single,
widowed. Some have small babies;
others, grown children. Many have jobs.
These are the women who make up the
Return to College Program at Agnes
Scott.
Begun in 1975 with two students, the
RTC program has grown to enroll 59
women this winter quarter. The pro-
gram, designed for women beyond the
usual college age of 18 to 22, welcomes
all women who qualify for admission, re-
gardless of previous college e.xperience.
Marilynn Mallory, Director of the
RTC Program, believes most of these
students come to Agnes Scott because of
its academic excellence, supportive at-
mosphere and size. Because returning to
college can be frightening, RTC students
find the College's small si:e and helpful
atmosphere a more gentle transition
back to school than returning to a
university.
Ms. Mallory says that RTC students
"compare very well, after the first quar-
ter hurdle, with traditional students, be-
cause of the RTC students' maturity and
determination to succeed."
Most RTCs begin slowly by taking
one or two courses the first quarter. If
the student and Agnes Scott suit each
other, as they usually do, Ms. Mallory
says the student is "caught in a wonder-
ful bit of magic," and after two quarters
is usually enrolled for a degree.

GUISE BAILEY, AN "A" STU-
dent, will graduate in June with a
major in English. The mother of
four sons, ages 23, 21, 19 and 12, she
came to Agnes Scott after two successful
years at DeKalb Community College,
where she edited the literary magazine.
She enrolled at Agnes Scott in the
spring of 1981 because the English de-
partment was recommended by several
faculty members at DeKalb. Ms. Bailey
had visited the campus in the fall of '80
on an RTC visitation day. While here,
she attended Professor Mary Butler's
class on Dryden, Swift and Pope. Ms.
Bailey says, "I was impressed with the
discussion in class, the teacher, the stu-
dents and their attitude in the class-
room, and the whole environment of
the school."
Because her work here has gone so
well, Louise Bailey is working on a two-
quarter, 10-hour independent study of
William Faulkner with Professor Linda
Woods. She hopes to attend graduate
school in English or education and to
teach secondary or junior college stu-
dents, or to become a media specialist. "I
would love to earn a Ph.D., but it's one
step at a time right now^"
Louise Bailey, like other RTC stu-
-Bonnie BrouTi-
dents, describes the RTC Program as
marvelous. "The support system among
RTCs and from the College is wonder-
ful, especially for those feeling apprehen-
sive. The only thing I regret is that I
didn't come here sooner."
BONNIE BROWN, IN HER 20s
.and a junior, came to Agnes Scott
in 1980 after several years of part-
time study at Georgia State University.
A friend at work told Ms. Brown about
the RTC Program.
"I am challenged academically by the
intelligent, creative women here," she
says. Although she is closer in age to the
traditional students than to most of the
other RTCs, she finds that her experi-
ence makes her feel closer to the RTC
students. But, she adds, "there is that
point where the challenge of the school
10 SPRING 1984

pushes us all together," whether tradi-
tional or RTC.
An art major and a member of the
Arts Council, Ms. Brown is focusing on
printmaking and praises both art profes-
sor Leland Staven's flexible, supportive
teaching and the print lab and
equipment.
"This is the first time since the eighth
or ninth grade that I've put school first,"
she says. She likes her involvement with
her school work and her college friends
and calls this a special time because of
her different perspective about being in
cational consultant to area child devel-
opment centers in Rochester's Head
Start Program.
One of two black RTCs here fall
quarter, Karen Grantham sees black
RTC students as "excellent role models
for traditional minority students, be-
cause they see the importance of an edu-
cation to these older women." She also
believes that her position as a black
RTC senior resident benefits traditional
white students who "might feel freer to
discuss black culture with an older stu-
dent than with one their own age."
have to retrain as a missile repair person,
she and her husband left the Army.
They enrolled in college together, first at
Florida Junior College in Jacksonville,
Ra., and then at Clayton Junior College
just south of Atlanta, where Ms.
McCracken was elected president of stu-
dent government.
She enrolled here last fall for her first
course, Spanish 01. She says she wanted
a place that "feels like college, and this is
it!" She describes her professor, Luis
Pena, as excellent. "He's convinced me
to do Latin American studies. I plan to

K-'AREN GRANTHAM IS AN
RTC "in the mainstream"; she is
k.the senior resident of Walters
Dormitory. In her third year as an RTC
and a senior resident, she learned about
the RTC Program while working at
Spelman College in Atlanta. In spring
1981, she applied for the senior resident
position and was hired by Dean of
Students Martha M. Kirkland. Ms.
Grantham entered the RTC Program by
taking her first course that fall.
She will graduate in June 1985 with a
degree in psychology and a teaching cer-
tificate in education. She has taught be-
fore as head teacher of a private day care
center in Rochester, N.Y, and as an edu-
Being an RTC student has enhanced
her work as a senior resident, she says.
"It's another foot in the door with tradi-
tional students. They see that I have to
study, too, and I have insight into their
pressures and am more understanding of
problems when they arise."
MARY McCRACKEN DROPPED
out of school at 16 to marry. She
opened her own employment
agency at 19 in Washington, D.C., later
divorced and at 25 she earned her Grad-
uate Equivalent Diploma and joined the
Army for three years. Her work as a
journalist/broadcaster gave her a keen
interest in political science, and her
work as a drill sergeant introduced her
to a fellow sergeant whom she soon
married.

else," Ms. McCracken says. "I want to
achieve my potential intellectually or
as close as I can come and become an
expert in one area, just for me."

Andrea Kivi and Ale.xa Forte, seniors at
Tucker High School, are planning to
apply to Agnes Scott for admission next
fall. They believe they would not be do-
ing so had they not received joint enroll-
ment scholarships from the College this
year
Although Agnes Scott started the
joint enrollment program years ago, this
is the first year scholarships were offered
for the program which allows qualified
high school students to take courses at
the College. These new, merit-based
scholarships cover the cost of tuition for
one course, whether it be one-quarter or
yearlong.
Dr. Linda L. Woods '62, associate pro-
fessor of English, proposed the scholar-
ships in response to President Ruth
Schmidt's Channels for Creativity Con-
test. In her proposal. Dr. Woods said,
"The exposure and goodwill that such a
program would provide would be invalu-
able. We would, of course, be benefitted
by taking into our classes strong students
who would improve the quality of the in-
troductory level courses. . . . We have
much to gain and to give."
Carter Hoyt, assistant director of ad-
missions, oversees the program. She says
it "recognizes the readiness of selected
high school seniors to begin college work
before graduation from high school."
To be considered, a student must sub-
mit a high school transcript, a record of
SAT or ACT scores and a letter from her
high school counselor giving school
approval for specific courses, as well as
the school's recommendation of the stu-
dent. Students are apprcived for admis-
sion to the program by the director of
admissions and for entrance into specific
courses by the dean of the college. Tlie
joint enrollment students are designated
as unclassified students, and the grades
they earn at Agnes Scott go toward their
'88: A JUMP AHEAD
graduation requirements at their high
schools and toward college credit if the
grades are C or better.
Andrea Ki\'i has completed her one-
quarter course, General Psychology,', and
says she "enjoyed the course, the profes-
sor (Dr. Ayse I. Garden '66), and met a
lot ot nice people in class."
Alexa Forte, whose first language at
home is French, is taking a yearlong
freshman English course. "There is a lot
more work and also more reward in this
course compared to my high school
courses," she says. "I like the whole at-
mosphere here." Alexa has arranged her
schedule to spend time on campus and
has enjoyed getting to know Agnes
Scott students. Her course work and her
association with the students have
changed her mind favorably toward
single-sex institutions.
Four other high school seniors re-
ceived joint enrollment scholarships.
They are Meg Bryant from Chamblee
High School, who took Voice and Dic-
tion; Mary Davis from Decatur High
School, who is taking German 101;
Shea Henson from Druid Hills High
School, who is taking German 101; and
Nancy Williams from Lakeside High
School, who is taking English 101.
The six students who received the
scholarships for fall quarter reinforce the
program's intent. While not all sLx plan
to attend Agnes Scott next fall, four cif
the six are applying to Agnes Scott and
three of them would not have applied
without the scholarship.
All six of the students are enthusiastic
about the scholarship program and ex-
press great satisfaction with their ex-
periences at the College. As Director of
Admissions Judith M. Tindel '73 says,
"The Joint Enrollment Scholars are a
strong group ot students. . . . They are
taking a very positive message about the
College back to their high schools."

AGNES SCOTT ALUMNAE MAGAZINE 13
, ^ore than 300 people gathered at Agnes Scott College Oa. 1.1983,
to pay tribute to a very special man. John Flint, longtime employee
of Agnes Scott, was 100 years old. Friends, family, alumnae, faculty
and staff members packed Rebekah Re-
ception Room. A three-layer chocolate
birthday cake surrounded by a variety of
hors d'oeuvres covered the banquet
tables. Former Agnes Scott presidents
Marvin B. Perry Jr. and Wallace M.
Alston joined current president Ruth
Schmidt to give special greetings to Mr
Flint as the College presented him with
a captain's chair inscribed with the Col-
lege seal.
He also received proclamations from
President Ronald Reagan and state and
local officials. His simple statement of
gratitude drew a round of applause.
Mr. Hint came to Agnes Scott in 1910
as a janitor and worked his way to head
waiter in the dining hall and head of
cafeteria personnel. He says he often
served 350 people a full-course dinner in
an hour He was best known as the bell
ringer, calling students to the table and
wearing out several bells in the process.
But he was also a gifted artisan. The
intricate moldings in Rebekah Scott Hall
reflect his design, and he dug founda-
tions for and painted several campus
buildings. A part of campus life, he
would often go into the woods to gather
logs for the students' fall bonfires or
help students decorate the halls for
parties and holidays.
John Hint worked under Agnes
Scott's first four presidents all of them
fine men, he says, although the College's
first president, Dr. Frank Gaines, was "a
little too strict for my taste." Dr. Gaines
built a fence around the campus, and
"he wouldn't let dogs or boys pass
through."
The modest son of a Covington, Ga.,
farmer and preacher, Mr Flint likes to
lift his finger and say, "I haven't got that
much against anyone in the world." He
believes in living by the Bible and says
he's satisfied with his long life.
He enjoys recalling the day President
Alston called him into his office and
said, ""fcu're a good man, Mr. Flint. If
I had a front yard and a back yard full
of John Flints, I wouldn't have a prob-
lem in the world."
Mr. Flint has found few problems with
Agnes Scott folk, either. "Good people,
kind people, Christian-hearted people,"
he calls them, and though he is a devout
churchman, he has always felt his calling
was his work at the College.
During his 60 years at Agnes Scott,
Mr Flint claims he never took a vaca-
tion day and was rarely sick. Besides his
work at the College, he did odd jobs
whenever he could. Many nights, he
says, he painted until 3 a.m., only to
sleep a few hours before going to work
at the College at 6:30 a.m.
Besides his affection for Agnes Scott is
his deep love for his family. He first spot-
ted his wife, Louise, when she was an
1 1-year-old schoolgirl crossing the cam-
pus to meet her mother, who worked in
the custodial department. Mr. Hint re-
members it as love at first sight, and he
made up his mind to stay in Decatur
until she was old enough to "receive
company." Three years later, he asked
her mother for permission to call on
Louise, and in another three years, they
married.
"We had 79 years together," he says.
"We each gave 100 percent to the mar-
riage. That's pure love; that's proven
love. If people would marry for love, it
would be a blessed thing."
The Hints reared their 1 1 ^^

angry," Mr. Flint recalls. Today's young-
sters, on the other hand, cause him
worry, and he regrets the lack of prayer
and Bible teaching in public schools. "If
we had those things, we would have
much better conditions today. Thou-
sands of families don't have time to pray
with their children," he says. "The best
thing is to have your children know
what God means."
Other things about modern life bother
John Flint, too. The divorce rate shocks
him, and he believes most people marry
to get away from home without taking
time to get acquainted first. "Where
there is no love, there is no getting
along," he cautions.
But in spite of it all, he prefers today
to the past. Life is easier today, he said,
explaining that his life on the farm re-
quired sunup to sundown work in fields
of cotton, peanuts, soybeans and other
crops. The quality of life for most blacks
"If people would marry
for love, it would be a
blessed thinp,."
is better now because of the civil rights
movement, he added. Fifty years ago, he
still had to run from white children as
they hurled rocks at him, a 50-year-old
man. He taught his children to survive
prejudice by being nice to everyone,
avoiding trouble and refusing to fight
back. And although he credits Martin
Luther King Jr. and John E Kennedy
with making great strides toward free-
dom for blacks, he maintains, "Christ
one day will set the world free when he
returns."
John Flint has also seen progress in
technology. Although 12-year-old John
was scared the first time he rode in a car,
his first plane ride was just dandy. "Old
people used to tell children about the
chariots in the sky which is in the
Bible and a lot of people thought
that's what the planes were," he says.
Although Mr. Flint accepted planes
for what they were, he still cannot be-
lieve man has walked on the moon.
"Science is a wonderful thing, but man
ain't that smart."
Mr. Flint still lives in the family home-
place in Decatur with his daughter, Mis-
souri Brown, his son Frank, and his
grandson, Edgar Allen Flint. Most days
he reads the Bible often the book of
Proverbs scans the Atlanta Constitu-
tion, walks his dog King and visits
with friends. At 100, he says his
greatest challenge is to be
always "kind and loving
to everybody."

culture folk dancing.
Both an Agnes Scott dance

an, she spient two years travel-
ing throughout Georgia and
the Southeast to research the

tion for the 1983-84 Georgia

arts for dance.
Professor Darling believes

forms, and dance is the
mother of art."
"America is changing so
fast," she says, "from an in-
dustrial to an informational
society." The process began in
1956, she exp ains, when for
the first time white-collar

puter programmers, clerks.
The computer craze has pro-
pelled this revival of the past
and, according to Ms. Darl-
ing, the revival is getting
stronger.
Professor Darling came to
Agnes Scott with a master's
degree in music from Florida
16 SPIUNG 1984
State University. She had
tudied under such well
:nown artists as Martha
jraham, Alwin Nikolais,
Vlvin Ailey and Marcel

Her research inspired her to

ent Ruth Schmidt's inaugu-
ation last spring. Since then,
bey have danced at the
ellow Daisy Festival at Stone
Mountain, the opening of the
High Museum of Art and at
the Great Scott Festival at
Agnes Scott.
During her travels, Ms.
Darling interviewed three
rural residents who were more
than 70 years old and had
lived in the same county for
at least 30 years. She asked
them how society had
changed from when they were
young.
"None of them knew each
other," she says. "\fet all three
gave basically the same re-
sponses. They said that
times were harder
then; less to eat, '
less to wear, homes were not
as nice. But all preferred those
times to today They felt that
there is a sense of 'hostility
and isolation' in society today.
"People are starved for gre-
gariousness, non-isolation.
That's why folk festivals are
such a hit," Ms. Darling ob-
serves. "If we were giving
away gold, we couldn't pack
any more people in some of
the festivals."
She found as many as five
generations participating in
folk dances performed at the
festivals. This provided a
chance for all age groups.

she thinks. "Dance is one of

Modern dance evolved into

more isolation than previous
dances, she says. For example,
many amateur dances are per-
formed without touching a
partner, and professional
dances are performed on stage
apart fi-om the audience.
"The audience does not
want 'formal isolation' with
the dancers on the stage and

the audience off." She noted a
closeness between audience
and performer in folk dancing
in most performances, the
audience practically moved
on stage to see the
performers.
"Folk dances are 'people
dances' and tell society about
itself," Ms. Darling says. She
found both secular and reli-
gious folk dances. Southern
black and Southern white
dances. Southern white
dances, derived from Euro-
pean forms, included square
dancing and clogging. South-
ern black dances began in
Africa but were influenced by
slavery. They included the
Buck Dance, the Juba, the
Ham Bone, the Holy Dance
or the Dance of the Holy
Spirit and Saturday Night
Jive.
Ms. Darling learned that
most black dances came from
slave days when dances were
in coded form. Out of slavery
came numerous slave games,
songs and dances, the only
art forms available to the
black slaves, she says. Because
these art forms directly ex-
pressed ongoing life processes,
they were continually evolv-
ing and changing. Blacks
soon had a secret language
which the white man could
not easily understand. Using
this language barrier to their
advantage, blacks blended
their own set of meanings and
dialogue into the dances and
games to act out their anger
and frustration toward the
white slaveholders, without
fear of reprisal.
"For example, in the Buck
Dance, the 'bucks' were black
slaves," Ms. Darling says. The
white dance form of the soft
shoe evolved from this dance.
TTie Ham Bone is a coded
dance form of hand pats and
foot movements with music
and lyrics. According to Ms.
Darling, during slave days the
white masters would take the
choicest part of a butchered
pig. The slaves got the rest,
which they divided equally
among themselves. The least
desirable part was the back-
LAST YEAR WHEN THE PULITZER
Prizes were awarded, the Agnes Scott
^community cheered for one of their
own. Former student and now play-
wright Marsha Norman earned the 1983
Pulitzer Prize for Drama with her power-
ful treatment of suicide in " 'night,

"/ keep thinking what it is that might be

middle-aged, overweight daughter in
'"night, Mother." "Maybe if there was
something I really like, like rice piuiding or

tion carries the 90-minute dialogue be-
tween a daughter bent on suicide and

ter has lost her husband, her son has

is playing to rave reviews on Broadway,
and the Louisville, Ky., native's work is
expected to win a sweepstakes of theater
awards before the year is out.
According to Ms. Norman, 35, part of
the credit belongs to Agnes Scott philos-
ophy professor Merle Walker. "You look
two seconds at my work, and you see her
influence. That's just a critical part of
me."
She speaks of Dr. Walker's passion for
her field. "Agnes Scott allowed me to be
around that kind of people." She says
the best course she took was Dr. Walker's
course on Plato.

ade, slaves wrote the lyrics,

"Juba is another coded song
nd dance routine which
oes, 'Juba this and juba that
nd juba (food) killed a yellow
at (master)." This dance
volved into the Charleston
1 later years, Ms. Darling
xplained.
"The white folk dance, clog-
ging, with its European heri-
tage, is performed at festivals,
jamborees and country
night spots," she says. A pre-
decessor of tap dance, clog-
ging became dormant in the
1940s until the folk dance re-
vival. Today it rides a wave of
popularity. There are numer-
ous new professional clogging
teams which perform
throughout the country, she
says.
"Like clogging, square
dance is currently one of the
most popular forms of folk
dance. Around 1940, square
and folk dances were danced
frequently at special barn
dances, parties and 'get-
togethers.'
"Festivals and jamborees
sprang up. Square dance be-
came so popular that it was
incorporated into the educa-
tional system throughout the
United States. By 1966,
square dance had established
itself as part of the core cur-
ricula in physical education
and recreation programs at
leading colleges and univer-
sities," Ms. Darling observed.
"Although square dance never
entered a dormant period as
clogging did, it continues to
increase in popularity each
year with no hint of decline."
Professor Darling, who will
continue researching folk
dance, predicts, "The folk
craze will continue until the
technical/robotics change
slows down or until we feel
comfortable with that change.
As high technology advances,
the folk craze will continue to
develop also."

istinctive guess as to what I should de-

Dnment and time to do some critical
"linking about how to make the world
home."
In 1968, after three years at the Col-
:ge, she went to work with disturbed
hildren at Kentucky's Central State
lospital. "Those kids were just the be-
inning. The whole history of my life is
wanting to be of service," she says.
"How could I help? I found I couldn't
help in any way. Those kids were as
much a part of the bureaucracy as the
bureaucrats they served. I lasted two
years and left absolutely brokenhearted."
From Central State she went to teach
gifted children at the Brown School,
then settled down to full-time writing,
doing articles for Louisville Today and
book reviews for The Louisville Times,.
Also, she created and wrote "The Jelly
Bean Journal," a children's supplement
to the Saturday evening Louisville
Courier-Journal.
"I was perceived as charming, funny
and smart, but really of little signifi-
cance." She told an interviewer from the
Saturday Review, "I had nobody to talk
to. I was an alien creature in my im-
mediate world."
Feeling isolated and alone and having
ended her marriage to teacher Michael
Norman, she made the break and did
what she had always dreamed of
write for the theater. She submitted a
play to Jon Jory of the Louisville Actors
Theatre. While it didn't suit his needs, it
convinced him she could write. He urg-
ed her to try her hand with a play about
some serious social issue, perhaps busing.
She countered with the idea of "Getting
Out," based on the life of a young girl
she had known at Central State.
But "Getting Out" has personal mean-
ing, too. Ms. Norman says she has a
"tremendous fear of being trapped to
be trapped in a job, in a marriage, in a
group." Her fear took form in "Getting
Out," in which an angry young woman.
imprisoned for murder, is finally re-
leased. First produced by Jory at the
Actors Theatre, the play went on to

months.

past five years. She believes the ascen-

a general awareness of women to be cen-

change in the attitude toward women in
general. When a change in the culture
occurs, it is reflected in the theater. My
work is an affirmation of my right to

She says she has encountered no prej-
udice in her theater experience. "But
there is one prejudice that could have
been devastating the tendency of the
male-dominated theater to put women
characters in the background," Ms. Nor-
man explains. " ' 'night. Mother' is one
of the few plays in which the mother is

lationship affects everyone. It's an im-
portant relationship and needs to be

Ms. Norman says: "People receive a

known people who killed themselves.
We're left confounded and grief-stricken.
' 'night, Mother' is an attempt to under-
stand what they're doing and to fight it
out with them, to fight both sides of the
issue."
Reviewers have given the play warm
response. "Miss Norman's play is simple

r^ hree Agnes Scott professors are conducting trips
abroad this summer to countries whose food is as
well known as their landscapes. Armed with the
lowledge that the lifestyles of people in different cul-
res are often reflected in what they eat and how they
epare their food, this writer asked the three profes-
rs about their personal culinary likes and dislikes.
With a sense of humor, all the while rueing the
riter's misplaced editorial judgment, the professors
luctantly answered questions about their attitudes

AGNES SCOTT ALUMNAE MAGAZINE 21
Bobbie socks and big band sounds returned to Agnes
Scott in December when a Hollywood movie crew filmed
scenes around the campus.
The College's architecture had lured producer Larry
Spangler to choose Agnes Scott as the main location for
"The Bear," his $8 million movie about
late University of Alabama football
coach Paul "Bear" Bryant. Spangler's
crew sprinkled silk dogwood trees and
fresh flowers across the December-dreary
campus, and the Alumnae House be-
came the site for Coach Bryant's home.
Dressing rooms lined the campus' yellow
curbs, and 100 male teenagers roamed
the women's locker room.
Paint, wallpaper and borrowed furni-
ture transformed Main's McKinney
Date Parlor into the set for the Univer-
sity of Alabama's president's office, and
Winship Hall was home to a chaotic
mass of hairdressers, makeup artists and
wardrobe crew members.
"This school has become our
godsend," said Mr Spangler, an attrac-
tive man in his 40s, with permed gray
hair and a diamond stud earring in one
ear "It's l ike a movie studio."
Z^f he Bear" stars Gary Busey in
I the title role. Busey is best
" known as the star of "The
Buddy Holly Story," and his ability to
mimic people has earned him respect.
Not only could Busey imitate many of
Bryant's characteristics, says the pro-
ducer, but he was the right age for
makeup artists to change him from a
teenager to an older man in the course
of filming six makeovers in all.
Mr. Spangler decided to film the
movie in Georgia after Bryant's family
objected to filming in Alabama. Al-
though before his death Coach Bryant
had given Spangler permission to make
the mo\'ie, the coach's family objected
to the script and some of the casting.
They wanted a more well-known actor
to play Bear Bryant.
Bear Bryant first had hoped John
Wayne could portray him, but the leg-
endary actor died before casting began.
Spangler approached George C. Scott
with the part, but they could not agree
on the actor's fee. Spangler says he also
considered Burt Lancaster, but felt the
actor was too old to play the Bear as a
teenager.
As he considered a list of prominent
actors, Spangler realized most of them
were too short. Someone recommended
he contact Gary Busey, who had plaved
football in Oklahoma and was South-
ern. Busey read the script, lost 40
pounds, had his teeth capped and
started to work.
The actor spent a mc^nth in Birm-
ingham meeting people and listening to
stories about the famous coach; he
watched 100 hours of \ideotapes of
Bryant, and he talked with men who
had played fcxitball under Tlie Bear.
"Gary's knockin' 'em dead," Spangler
says ccinfidently. "He's got Bear's move-
ments down. Busey 's a talented actor
he'll be bankable after this."
Although Busey is a talented actor,
"Gary is difficult to work with," admit-
ted the producer "But I'm difficult to
work with. I treat my people well. I take
care of them, but they work or they go
home."
Spangler predicts Busey will earn an
Oscar nomination for his portrayal of
Bear Bryant. He recalled the scene when
Busey made a locker room speech to the
football team about a Saturday Evening

Big Band plays as hun-

Post article which alleged that Coach
Bryant fixed a game. The crew and ex-
tras gave the actor a standing ovation at
the end of the take. Another scene re-
quired Busey to fake a heart attack.
Spangler said the acting was so convinc-
ing that it unnerved several onlookers.
But the producer isn't the only one
who can almost feel the Oscar in his
hand. "Press your tux," Busey quips to
Spangler, after ending a scene well.
Since the Agnes Scott students were
on Christmas vacation, only a few
worked as extras. But many
Atlantans came to campus to be extras
in the football and dance scenes. For
one dance set in Rebekah Reception
Room, production workers hung hun-
dreds of 45 rpm records from the ceiling
as students in '50s era costumes
ducktail haircuts, saddle oxfords and
bobbie socks packed the noisy room.
In a more elegant dance staged in the
gym, more than 200 people, dressed in
'30s ballgowns and tuxedos, danced to
Big Band tunes to set the scene where
Paul Bryant first met his wife.
Because Spangler had only three
months to film the movie, all the crew
members felt pressured, he says. "All of
us like the recognition," he added, not-
ing interview requests from magazines
and newspapers nationwide Sports
Illustrated, Rollmg Stone and even Andy
Warhol's /ntfrrieic.
/ Z^Phe Bear" has put Agnes Scott
I in the national spotlight. Be-
B sides local magazine, television
and newspaper features, the College re-
ceived mention on "Entertainment
Tonight," in USA Today, in People Maga-
zine and elsewhere.
There were other benefits as well. The
film's production staff repaired and
restored the sites they used, and the
College could choose to keep the set
dressing or have them changed back to
the original look. The date parlors in
Main dormitory were on the list.
McKinney Date Parlor was wallpapered
and Dieckmann Date Parlor got a fresh
coat of paint and some new draperies.
One of the Alumnae House rooms was
also repainted, and Rebekah Reception
Room got a new set of draperies.
This is not the first time Agnes Scott
has been chosen as location for films.
"The Four Seasons," "The Double
McGuffin" and "A Man Called Peter"
were also filmed in part on the campus.
When students returned to register for
winter quarter, few traces of Hollywood
remained. Students will have to wait un-
til the movie's October premiere to see
their campus portrayed as the University
of Alabama.
AGNES SCOTT ALUMNAE MAGAZINE 25
(Cont'd, from page 2)
how I've come to understand mvself. My
art is journalistic it's a visual journal
of my days.
"If I were making art to sell, I'd be
making different art," she says. "I'm not
making pretty images anymore. The
content level of my art is different it's
more emotional, honest, powerful."
Terry's trek was motivated by a sum-
mer she spent in India as a Fulbright
scholar. A veteran traveler, she was
more profoundly influenced by her expe-
rience in traveling in Eastern countries
than her impressions from the art cen-
ters of Europe.
Her journey into the isolated, primi-
tive land of the Himalayan mountains,
where dawn and dusk were the only re-
minders of time, opened a new world to
her of different people and a different
way of life.
"The Himalayan experience was a new
high because it tapped so much of my
life. The least of it is the whole survival
issue being in a fairly primitive space
for several weeks and living the way we
did in a strange culture.
"During this trek, I became intrigued
with where ground and sky merge and
how they don't merge. Where does one
end and the other begin? Where does
man or woman and nature begin and
end? You can take that question into the
environment and what we're doing to
the earth."
Returning from the Himalayas to the
fast world of cars, phones, computers,
and daily schedules, Terry's exhiliration
changed to frustration. She retreated to
a family cabin on the Florida panhandle
to find peace and quiet again. During
this time, she experienced loneliness and
sadness and her moods, again, were re-
flected in her work. Most of her seascape
pictures display dark bold colors which
convey a somber, melancholy feeling.
"I don't like living and moving as fast
as I live and move in this country. Dur-
ing my sabbatical year, having the time
to learn how^ to relax, learning not to
push myself, I found out there was
another way to li\'e. I discovered a new
side of myself that wanted 'to be' rather
than 'to be driven.' We live calendars,
we live clocks. I feel like I'm back in the
fast lane and I mourn the loss of being
in another culture where nobody gave a
damn about the time when it got
done, it got done," she explains.
"1 will never work 8-to-5. I hoped that
I could on my sabbatical. I set up a rigid
schedule, and I found out very soon that
I could not do that. The sabbatical was
so important to allow me time to get in
touch with the 'naturalness' not hav-
ing to compartmentalize my feelings into
making art on Friday afternoons when I
wasn't teaching or at times when I didn't
want to do it.
"A more structured life does not allow
for that ebb and flow of creativity to
come in and out of your life. Different
things trigger me to want to go into my
studio I can go to an art opening, I
can attend a musical event, or I can be
with a special person. I pretty much go
on my natural rhythms."
A professor at Agnes Scott for eight
years, Terry even noticed a change in
her teaching style after returning from
her sabbatical. "I'm more flexible now
with my students. I am still as demand-
ing, but in a soul-searching way. I chal-
lenge them to think more about 'why.' I
teach them technical skills, but I want
them to go further to look inside
themselves and think. I allow for differ-
ent things now a more spiritual
approach.
"We were all born with creativity,
and we want to do something creative,
whether it's to take a photography
course or to learn to weave. But we
don't always integrate this artistic ex-
pression into our lives. At Agnes Scott, I
want to influence these women, who
won't necessarily be artists, but who will
incorporate art into their lives.
"I feel that if we can't share more of
ourselves, whether through visual art,
dance, music, loving, or caring or what-
ever, then what is it about? '^Tiat is life if
we can't share the rainbow we experi-
ence in our lives the darks, the lights,
and everything in between?"

AGNES SCOTT ALUMNAE MAGAZINE 27
Y^o*-^ have to keep open
X the windows of wonder,
maintains Dr. Walter Edward
McNair, Professor Emeritus oi
English at Agnes Scott, former Director
of Public Relations and De\'elopment,
and author of a recently published his-
tory of the College, "Lest We Forget."
Dr. McNair's capacity for wonder,
which sparked a generation of superior
students, has not diminished since his
retirement in 1977. It illuminates the
comprehensive, definitive history he
wrote at his old desk in a handsome,
paneled office on the second floor of
McCain Library. And it sharpens the in
cisive wit with which he now compiles
anecdotes about the College, gleaned
from stories of alumnae all over the
nation.
"Many of us have become so prag-
matic, so practical, so earthbound in ou
whole outlook on and attitude toward
life that we ha\'e lost our capacity to
wonder," he told the Agnes Scott stu-
dent body in an Investiture address in
1976. "Our values have been polluted b'
the commonplace and pedestrian. We
no longer stand v\'ide-eyed in awe before
the beautiful as our imaginations take
flight and excitement runs riot through
our blood."
Dr. McNair bases his capacity for
wonder on three things: the creative
genius of the human mind, our capacity
for love and selflessness and "that the
ultimate realization of selfhood can re-
sult from completely identifying one's
purposes and ideals with a cause or an
institution greater than oneself"
The company of Agnes Scott teachers
students and alumnae who have given
themselves to the College, he says, con-
tinually inspire him. He cites Professor
Ellen Douglass Leyburn, an alumna of
the Class of 1927 and a faculty member
for 32 years, who, he says, "personified
the union of the great teacher with the
constantly producti\'e, publishing
scholar." He also points to Miss Nan-
nette Hopkins, "the first teacher em-
ployed in ISS*^ when Agnes Scott was
still a dream," and Professor Samuel
Guerry Stukes, who gave his life to the
College and was a "devoted husband
and father, a respected and effecti\'e
citizen, and an actively participating
member of his church."
Dr. McNair, legendary for his dedica-
tion to Agnes Scott, began his adminis-
trative work under President Wallace
Alston and continued under President
Mar\in B. Perry Jr. "One could have no
better men to work for," Dr. McNair
says.
.S-
As Director of Public Relations and
evelopment, McNair was compulsively
tentive to detail. "When the ox is in
e ditch, we must all pull together to
t him out," he used to say. Once,
Ken a dignitary was to visit the Col-
^e, Dr. McNair spotted some pigeon
oppings on the front steps of Buttrick
all, grabbed a mop and washed the
:ps himself.
A tap dance of his made campus his-
ry when he kept step with dance in-
uctor Marylin Darling at a Junior
unt Talent Show several years before
retired. The student who asked the
ilding sexagenarian to attempt this feat
"When the ox is in the
ditch, we must all pull
together to get him out.
;ver expected him to accept the chal-
ige. He looked at her steadily through
s rimless glasses and replied, "Of

For two months, on Wednesday and
iday afternoons, Ms. Darling and Dr.
cNair practiced in the basement of
e gym. Frequently Dr. McNair would
jp, stare sadly at his feet, and tell her,
Ars. Darling, my mind understands
iplicitly the four, five and sLx count.
It my feet don't seem inclined to co-

The night of the Junior Jaunt, Dr.
cNair and Ms. Darling dressed in
arching red plaid slacks (his usual
mpus garb), blue vests, bow ties and
mbands, billing themselves as Mac 'n'
are. With verve and precision, they

underous applause, turned to his part-
:r and said with awe, "I believe we did
perfectly."
But "one cannot improve on perfec-
)n," so he refused the junior class
len they petitioned him to repeat his
rformance the next year.
Dr. McNair leavens his formal,
Iwardian manner with a keen wit, and
; is known for his bon mots. Once a
student appeared in his English class 10
minutes late. He looked at her flushed
face and disheveled hair and told her
sternly, "Miss Skinner, you look like the
wheels of destruction going downhill."
Today, Dr. McNair looks back over
a full, rich life. Born in Atlanta near
where the Fulton County Stadium
stands now, he graduated from Boys
High School, "of which I am very
proud," he says. He went on to David-
son College, where he graduated summa
cum laude, then returned to Atlanta to
teach English at Commercial High
School for nine years before joining the
Army as a private in 1942.
For three years, he was stationed in
England, where he says, "the country-
side whetted my love for English litera-
ture." He emerged as a major but later
became a lieutenant colonel in the
Reserves.
When he returned to the States, his
widowed mother, whom he adored, was
in her 70s. Determined to go back to
school on the G.I. Bill, Edward McNair
enrolled in graduate school at Emory
University after teaching one more year
at Commercial High. In 1949 he started
work on his doctorate, and after com-
pleting his course work in 1952, he came
to Agnes Scott as associate professor. He
finished his dissertation four years later.
A bachelor who says he "never found
a girl I loved enough to marry who
would have me," Dr. McNair found
compensations in the single life. "First
my mother was the polar center of my
life," he explains. "For 31 years now, the
polar center has been Agnes Scott. I've
enjoyed my freedom; if I had married, I
might not have had as much time to
give to Agnes Scott."
An active layman at Druid Hills
Presbyterian Church for 40 years, he has
served as an elder for three decades. His
small circle of intimate friends range
from those with silver hair and in their
80s to couples who could be his grand-
children. He has two godchildren and
two namesakes to whom he is devoted.
"It's been a wonderfully fine thing," he
says of the changes he has seen in his
years at the College. "1984 is not the
same as 1952. I have watched the Col-
lege as it tried to keep pace with the
times."
He notes the increased freedom of the
students, recalling how they used to be
required to sign in and out and observe
lights out. "The curriculum has loosened
up. It is relevant, appropriate for the
times, and there's more freedom of
choice in the courses," he adds. "The
faculty is larger, but not one whit better.
There are more married women in the
faculty and more men. When the men
were in the minority, they used to have
lunch together every Tuesday to 'main-
tain their integrity.' "
He also recalls a time when students
wore blue jeans and shorts only on
"Suppressed Desires Day." "Today
they're worn by all the students, 'fcu
rarely see skirts and sweaters anymore."
The student body is much more mo-
bile, he observes. When he came to the
College, students were not allowed to
have cars. "Today most students have
cars, and parking is a problem."
Dr. McNair has seen four new build-
ings go up on campus, and he takes
pride that he was active in the Seventy-
fifth Anniversary Development Fund
which made possible the construction of
the Dana Fine Arts Building. During
that time, under Dn Alston, he worked

center of his life has been

closely with alumnae groups "a great
group of women," he says, beaming.
Since his retirement, he has received
several awards and accolades. A loyal
Davidson alumnus who has served as
president of his class every year since his
graduation, he was given Davidson's
Alumni Service Medal honoring his 50
years of work. An active member and
past president of Phi Beta Kappa, he was
honored by Agnes Scott with a student
fund in his name to support visits to
campus from Phi Beta Kappa scholars.
Although Dr. McNair may stoop
slightly, his red plaid slacks hide a little
paunch and the tiny tuft of hair on his
head has turned white, his taste in
clothes still runs to plaid, and his step is
as spry as ever. Every day finds him at
his old desk between volumes of Robert
Frost and campus archives. When he is
not bound for a civic meeting, he lunch-
es in the dining hall, enjoying the com-
pany of faculty members and students,
voicing his wonder, "What under the
shining canopy of heaven!"

'TheYear Of Introspection'
At the opening convocation in the faR of 1983 I cited the words ofjaroslav
/..\Pelikan, eminent church hslomn at Yale, who speaks of the ongoing life of
JL jL.people and institutions as "the mysterious relationship between continuity and
change. " Most of the academic year 1983-84 was spent in assessing where we r\ow
are in order to dJo the important work of planning for the second century of this great
College's life. We shaR build on our long heritage and on the many studies and
consukatiuns of these last two years to shape a strong future based on common
aspirations.
We at Agnes Scott share a commitment to the liberal arts, to the education of
\vomen, and to the ongoing exploration of the meaning of that commitment in &ds
uncertain year of 1984, just five years from our centennial celebration. Our sharing
this commitment to the kind of college Agnes Scott is and has been makes us a
minority in the world of higher education.
I am concerned that we as Americans tend toward the immediate and what we
deem practical, such as in education. Consequently, many people wiU miss the most
irr\portant aspect of the hherd arts the liberating experience of a liberal education.
It has to do with being freed from the limitations of any one person's understanding of
God's luorld.
The liberal arts are liberating arts, freeing us "from the parochialisms of our own
time ard place and station, " as Princeton's President William Bowen has said. We
study history and dream about the future to expand our hmzons in time. We must
live in this particular and peculiar time, but we can live weR, with understanding and
perspective, ordy by knowing what has preceded us arul by planning for what wiU be.
A liberal arts education liberates us from the slavery of place by curing us of
cultural myopia. One of the most vcduabk things we can ham is that many human
beings with the same God-given talents have structured their worlds in different ways.
B}i understanding another culture, we have greater insight into our own. Perhaps
because of my owii experience of Hispanic culture, one of my dreams for Agnes Scott
is that every graduate wiR have had significant exposure to another way of life,
another language, ar^ther manner of viewing the world.
President Bowen's words remind us that a liberal education should free us from the
parochialism of station as weR. There is nothing so freeing from our anxieties and
concerns as involvement with those whose station in Ufe dictates that shelter, daily
food, and even water to drink and bathe in, are uppermost in all vxiking t/ioughts.
Our privileges and uncommon opportunities as the liberaRy educated derryind that we
devote our lives to the service of others, of those who for many reasons economic,
medical, or political cannot live the liberated life.
A liberal and liberating education prods people to develop mental and spiritual
qualities which enable them to develop unique ways of being modes of relating to
die past, to culture and experiences, but uhmately, individuoRy shaped, unique to
each one. The liberaRy educated person is the one who digs out the facts, tteigfis the
evidence, e:3^lores what has been discovered and what can be known, organizes
materials to influence and persuade others, and makes choices marked by selflessness,
service, and a vision of the whole.
We at Agnes Scott College are dedicated to providing the best possible conditions
for this kind of liberating experience as we live out the "mysterious relationship
between continuity and change. " We are grateful for your participation and support in
this crucial work.

THE PRESIDENT'S REPORT
The 1983-84 academic year was one
of preparation and self-study, a
basic undertaking for an institution
ivhich will observe its centennial
ivithin five years. We at Agnes Scott
ivant to be ready to celebrate a joyous
3ne hundred years and the beginning
af the College's second century. Funda-
mental to this process was the February
visit of a team of colleagues from other
Southern colleges. They did a reaffir-
ntiation evaluation based on a campus
self-study completed in the fall.
During the course of the year, we
invited consultants fi^om other educa-
tional institutions to help us assess our
admissions and athletic programs, and
these refX)rts will also be a part of our
planning.
A new committee created by action
af the faculty performed a very impor-
tant planning function as well. This
Creative Ideas Coordinating Commit-
tee worked diligently to listen to all
constituencies of the College and then
to organize and present suggestions to
enhance this institution.
To show the best of our physical
heritage in our splendid buildings,
extensive renovation must be done
before 1989. The administration asked
the architectural firm of Spillman
Farmer of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, to
develop a comprehensive master plan.
These professionals lived on campus,
ate in die dining hall, and tested their
ideas and sketches by posting them on
a residence parlor wall, involving the
community in the excitement of the
plans. Their plans include renovation
of Inman, Main, and Rebekah Scott
residences,' the infirmary and the gym-
nasium; construction of a new
swimming pool, playing field and
track; and improvement of campus
landscaping and traffic patterns. The
Board of Trustees approved this com-
prehensive plan at its May meeting.
The College has also studied energy
conservation possibilities on campus.
This study calls for the installation of
independent hot water heating systems
in each building and the phasing out
of the antiquated steam plant. Both
the energy and the architectural plans
will be carried out in the next five
years.
To coordinate and carry forward
what we have learned by internal
studies and evaluations by outside
experts, the College formed a Second
Century Committee this spring to do
strategic planning. The committee rep-
resents all areas of the College
community. We look forward to explor-
ing new ideas and directions for the
College while maintaining and preserv-
ing all that is good in the wonderful
heritage of this institution.
Over the years the College has
been blessed by the many people
who have provided strong leadership
and devoted years of their lives in
service to Agnes Scott. The members
of the Board of Trustees are among
those to help perpetuate the tradition
of excellence with their contributions
of time and expertise.
New members of the Board of
Trustees include Susan M. Phillips '67,
who chairs the Federal Commodity
Futures Trading Commission in Wash-
ington, D.C., and six trustees elected
at the May meeting: Jean Salter Reeves
'59, retiring Alumnae Association pres-
ident; Jo Ann Sawyer Delafield '58;
Betty Pope Scott Noble '44; John
Weitnauer, Jr. , chairman and chief
executive officer of Richway, Inc. ; B.
Franklin Skinner, president of South-
em Bell; and Bennett A. Brown,
president of Citizens &. Southern
National Bank.
At a festive dinner in Evans Dining
Hall, the eve of the May board
meeting, the College community paid
tribute to retiring trustees Alex Gaines,
Hansford Sams, and A.H. Sterne. Mr.
Gaines chaired the board from 1973 to
1979 and is the grandson of Agnes
Scott's first president. Mr. Sams, a
great-grandson of the founder of the
College, recently served on the execu-
tive committee and the buildings and
grounds committee. Mr. Sterne's recent
service included the investment and
the academic affairs committees.
That same evening, the College also
said good-bye to retiring Dean Julia T.
Gary, who begins her Master of
Divinity Degree studies at Emory Uni-
versity's Candler School of Theology
this fall. She gave a fine address on
Agnes Scott's liberal arts heritage. Two
other retiring officers, Lee Barclay, vice
president for business affairs, and Paul
M. McCain, special assistant to the
president for planned giving and vice
president for development from 1969 to
1983, were also recognized by the

The College was saddened hy the
deadi in New York June 28 of Cissie
Spiro Aidinoff '51, a fonner Alumnae
Association president who had just
completed a four-year term as alumna
trustee.
As Agnes Scott approaches the
beginning of her second century,
the College is expanding its Return to
College Program under new director
Marilynn Mallory. Working closely
with the Office o{ the Dean of the
QiUege and the Office of Admissions,
the RTC program quickly put to work
a one-million-doUar gift from the estate
of Irene K. Woodruff to endow RTC
financial aid. Return to College meet-
ings and a newsletter have enhanced
communication and awareness of the
gifts and needs ot women beyond the
usual college age of 18 to 22.
Another innovative program is the
academic computing center on the
ground floor of the library. An attrac-
tive facility equipped with IBM
Personal Computers and Apple He's,
the academic computing center is
assisting the faculty and students to use
computers in all applicable parts of the
liberal arts curriculum. Professor
Thomas W. Hogan, coordinator of the
program, has done a fine job in his
first year in charge of the program.
The G'jlleges administrative side is
abo becoming computerized, guided by
Director oi Administrative Computing
Robert M. Thies, who came in Janu-
ary. The imminent claiming of a
$125,000 duPont challenge grant will
complete the half-million-dollar fund-
raising for computers and software for
instructional and administrative uses.
Also new this year was Agnes
Scott's first Alumnae College. The
successful June 18-22 event drew fifty-
three alumnae and friends from as far
away as New York and Pennsylvania to
the campus for one of three courses
taught by Agnes Scott faculty members
Miriam Daicker (psychology), Mar-
garet Pepperdene (English), and
Thomas Hogan (computer). Plans are
already underway to make the Alum-
nae College an annual event, so plan
to be with us next summer
The QiUege alai welcomed its first
chaplain this yean Mary Jane Kerr
Qimell '74, asscKiate pasttir at Qilum-
bia Presbytt^rian Church, led us in
wt^rship and prayer, offering spiritual
encouragement and guidance to the
G)llege community.
Agnes Scott is known throughout
metropolitan Atlanta for its valu-
able contribution of cultural events to
the public. The College not only offers
arts entertainment by members of its
community, but brings in nationally
acclaimed performers and artists as
well.
The Kirk Concert Series' successful
third season included classical pianist
Garrick Ohlsson, classical guitarist
Christopher Parkening, and the Guar-
neri String Quartet.
Agnes Scott provided other musical
entertainment, such as pianist Lois
Leventhal, the Washington and Lee
University Jazz Band, and the
Augsburg College Choir.
Divertissement, "a pleasant diver-
sion," was a half-hour of light
entertainment which featured guests
such as Broadway cabaret singer
Sandra Dorsey, folk musicians Elise
Witt and the Small Family Orchestra,
the illusionists New World Theatre
G:)mpany, and the Atlanta Civic
Opera Studio.
The Lecture Committee, comprised
of faculty members and students,
invited a variety of guests to the
campus. The Roadside Theater pre-
sented Red Fox/Seccmd Hangin' in the
fall. The National Theatre of the Deaf,
known for their spectacular acting as
well as their ability to use voice and
sign language for hoth hearing and
hearing- impaired audiences, and the
Florida State University Dance Theatre
Qimpany attracted large audiences dur-
ing the winter season. Sally Fitzgerald,
editor of The Habit of Being, spoke in
April about her friendship with Geor-
gia author Rannery O'Connor. The
film Wise Bfcxxi, based on O'Connor's
novel, was shown in conjunction with
Fitzgerald's lecture.
Linda Fcistan and Richard Wilbur,
award-winning poets featured during
d-ie 1984 Writers' Festival, entertained
several groups by reading and discussing
selections from their works.
Last fall, the first Great Scott Fes-
tival attracted visitors from throughout
Atlanta. Face painting, a haunted
house, lectures, glass-blowing demon-
strations, slide shows, campus touts,
festival T-shirts, ballcwns, and dance,

1983-84 FUND REPORT
One of the most important
aspects of Agnes Scott College
is the Annual Fund. Throu^ gifts
to the Annual Fund, alumnae and
friends provide for student financial
aid, facuky and staff salaries,
library resources, as well as utilities
and rrmntenance of our physical
plant. For the 1983-84 ^"^nes Scott
Annual Fur^d, over 200 alumnae
volunteers directed and staffed the
drive for contributions. Because of
these volunteers and the generosity
of over 3,400 alumnae, Agnes
Scott's Annual Fund can boast a
record year.
Alumnae and friends gave a
record $523,420 to the Annual
Fund Alumnae contributed
$291,502, surpassing their god of
$250, 000. The most exciting news,
however, is that alumnae participa-
tion increased from 32% to 38%.
Friends of the College also set a
r\ew giving record to the Annual
Fund by giving $231,900, almost
^double their previous high. In dona-
tions to all furuls, which include the
Science Hall, endowment, and
computer, alumnae gave $987, 669
also a record, if bequests are not
included
The response from alumnae,
frieruis, four\dations, and corpora-
tions to the Jessie Ball duPont
Challenge Grant for academic and
administrative computers has also
been excellent. With over a year to
go to meet the challenge, we are
only $27,000 short of our
$374,000 goal We fuRy expect to
claim the challenge grant before
December 31, 1984.
With over $1,886,000 in gfts to
all funds of the College, Agnes
Scott College is very proud of its
alumnae and friends. Throi^ this
valued support we wiR revnain
dedicated to providing the best
academic education possible for
ivomen We hope that everyone
who contributed this year luiR accept
our gratitude and know how very
much we appreciate their support.

Through the years alumnae and
friends of Agnes Scott have
provided gifts to buM the CoRege
and to strengthen its programs.
Many of these gifts have made it
possible to improve facuky compen-
sadon, to increase financial aid to
students, and to add books for the
library and equipment for the class-
rooms and laboratories.
Most of the gifts received each
year are unrestricted. The College
can apply them to scholarship
awards or to some other budget
needs. When a gift is designated for
Gifts strengthen
important
coUege programs,
a specific purpose, the College
respects the donor's wish
Some restricted gifts are made for
die Endowment so that the principal
will be held intact and only the
iru:ome wSl be used for general or
specific purposes. Gifts for student
loan funds are meeting a growing
need. Sometimes a donor wiR make
a gift but wiR select a life-income
plan such as an annuity, thereby
benefiting both the College and the
donor.

nae and frier\ds for their interest and
generosity in estabUshir^ the follow-
ing permanent funds for the
CoUege. The amount shown for
each fund represents the total of
all gifts received through June

This list describes individuoRy all
funds of $5,000 or more, but it
does not include scholarships pro-
vided annually by the donors.

sented by the Career Planning Office.
Forty-three business and alumnae rep-
resentatives talked with students about
career options.
Agnes Scott not only can boast
about its seven-to-one student-to-fac-
ulty ratio, but also about the close
relationships between students and fac-
ulty members. Students list the interest
and caring shown them by their pro-
fessors as the best part of their college
experience.
This year several Agnes Scott faculty
members garnered awards for their
research. A chemistry professor
received a National Science Founda-
tion grant for research in substituted
naphthalimides, and an economics
professor received a National Endow-
ment for the Humanities fellowship to

tion of Southeastern Biologists, the
Southeastern Chapter of the Ecological
S(x:iety of America, the chemistry
division of University Center in Geor-
gia, and the screening committee for
the Fulbright Africa Awards.
Women and scholarship gained
more support this year throughout the
metro Atlanta area with the formation
oi a women's studies group comprised
of staff and facuky from area colleges
and universities. Members of the
Agnes Scott faculty and staff were
instrumental in founding this group
and the first meeting was held on our
campus. In addition, faculty at Agnes
Scott met regularly to discuss women's
political, social, and economic issues.
During the past year, the College
received news of many alumnae.
We encourage all alumnae to send us
news of themselves and other alumnae.
The alumnae we heard from included:
Rachel Henderlite '28, the first woman
ordained by the Presbyterian Church,
U.S., was honored by Union The-
ological Seminary in New York with
the Union Medal, awarded to persons
who embody die mission of the semi-
nary to the world. Austin Presbyterian
Theological Seminary celebrated
Rachel Henderlite Day in May to
honor their professor emerita. She was
president of the Consultation on
Church Union from 1976 to 1980.
Peggy Mathis Lipsey '62 was named
president of the First American Bank
and Trust, a nationally chartered inde-
pendent bank headquartered in Laguna
Beach, California. She is the only

Jean Stewart Staton '46, M.D., is
president-elect of Emory University's
national alumni association.
Elizabeth Stevenson '41 has been
named Candler Professor of American
Studies at Emory University. These
professorships are awarded to Emory
faculty members for excellence in
teaching, scholarship, and service to
Emory. She is the only professor
without graduate degrees to become a
Candler professor.
Priscilla Sheppard Taylor '53 was
named editor of the Phi Beta Kappa
quarterly newsletter, "The Key
Reporter."
Alumnae are a vital part of foster-
ing the intellectual, financial, and
spiritual goals of the College. EXiring
the Alumnae Leadership Conference
in the fall of 1983, some one hundred
volunteers of the Association gathered
at the College to share ideas and to
learn how to better prepare themselves
for their role in serving the institution.
When President Ruth Schmidt met
with seventeen of the seventy alumnae
clubs throughout the United States this
year, several alumnae worked diligently
to get news coverage of her visit to
their city. This coverage helped spread
the word of Agnes Scott College
throughout the country.
Alumnae are not only good "PR
ambassadors" of the College, but they
are capable admissions representatives
as well. Their help this year in
admissions benefitted Agnes Scott's
enrollment. A number of students
enrolled as a result of twelve alumnae
clubs entertaining prospective students.
In addition, alumnae representatives
attended ninety college programs for
high schools in twenty states and saw
almost eight hundred students. Also,
thirteen alumnae daughters entered the
freshman class this fell.
The ASC Network (Alumnae/Stu-
dents/Careers) formed by the Career
Planning Office provided a resource
poo\ of 150 alumnae to be available to
help students learn more about specific
careers and gain on-the-job experience
through the Shadow, Extern, and
Intern Programs. Alumnae also shared
their career knowledge and expertise by
participating in the second Career Fair
held at the College in January.
As part of the Continuing Educa-
tion Committee Programs, alumnae
had a day of art with an art history
lecture during lunch on campus, and
later, a guided tour of the new High
Museum of Art. They also spent a
Saturday with Professor of Sociology
Constance Jones discussing the book,
Peace ivith Your Parents by Harold H.
Bloomfield, M.S. with Leonard Felder,
Ph.D. Other activities included a two-
evening seminar by Dr. C. Benton
Kline on "Theology Since 1960:
Change and Experience" and a day-
long seminar last spring with Dr. Tom
Hogan on "The Computer," which
offered alumnae hands-on learning
experience in the College Computing
Center.
Despite a downpour. Alumnae
Weekend brought six hundred former
students back to campus last April to
see old friends and to learn of proposed
plans for the Centennial Celebration.
Outstanding alumnae and classes of
special achievement were recognized
during the weekend, and more than
170 members of the Fifty Year Club
attended a reception honoring retiring
administrators and a special dinner.
For three weeks in June, thirty-five
alumnae toured the historic sites and
museums in France as they travelled
and learned about French culture with
Professor of French Frances Clark
Calder '51.
The continued service and contri-
butions of alumnae have enriched
the College in recmiting, providing
career opportunities for students, offer-
ing strong leadership, contributing
money to the College's growth, and
caring for the ongoing success of Agnes
Scott. The vital support from alumnae
is the key to the College's bright
future. With your help, Agnes Scott
will continue in the fine liberal arts
tradition while incorporating inno-
vative thoughts and moving in new
directions.
Our year of introspection has given
us some fresh ideas on how to upgrade
fecilities and create an even more
pleasant environment in which to
work, leam, and live. This next year
will be one of implementation
carrying out ways to enhance the
Q)llege as we approach our centennial
year.D

DITOR'S NOTE: Mary Ben
:rwin '25, a volunteer who has
rked in the alumnae office for
ve years, contributed this letter on
Arginia McKenzie's retirement to
tie Alumnae Magazine. See
Virginia's success story on page 28.
^ear editor:
t ivas a good day in 1974 for
\gnes Scott and the nadond
Siumnae Association when
Hrginia Broxun McKenzie '47
ecame director of dumnae
ffairs. It has been my privilege
rui pleasure to work and play in
ie alumnae office often mring
lese 10 years, and my long
riendship with Virginia has
eveloped into one of my most
measured blessings. I am saddened
y the announcement of her
Jtirement in June. At the same
me, I am cheered by the indelible
'.gacy of her charm, expert
ladership, and devoted hydty to
he dumrKie association and her
Ima mater.
Virginia is the chatelaine of the
dumnae House, aware of every
'etaii of making it the attractive
nd hospitable College guest
ouse. Her years as homemaker,
wife, and mother of an active and
devoted farruly prepared her for
these demands.
Active participation in dumnae
affdrs has increased under her
leadership. Alumnae Weekend is
one of tfie hig/iiig/its of the College
calendar. Attendance at the
dumnae luncheon has increased
beyond the walls of the College
dining hall into the amphitheatre.
The Fifty Year Club, recognizing
early dumnae, is a specid feature
of the weekend, with axtendance
of about 175 for dinner and
recognition of outstanding women
in their respective fields of
educaticm, church, professiond,
and community service. Virgmids
vision and energy have made this
a happily anticipated event.
The on-the-spot role of liaison
between the dumnae and the
College administration has
extended to oU dumnae. Under
her leadership, locd dumnae clubs
have grown from 15 to 70
tfiroug/iout tlie country. She has
visited the clubs and knows each
organization as a branch of the
parent stem and knows individud
members who make those
branches flourish. Her knowledge
of 9, 500 Agnes Scott dumnae as
persond friends and products of
the dma mater is one of her
greatest assets.
To everything there is a season
and a time to every purpose under
the heaven, a time to laugh and a
time to dance. It is time now,
Virginia, for you and your
husband John, to lau^ and
dance with your happy brood
around you. We shaR be rejoicing
with you in your delayed fun and
saying, "Thanks, " to you and
your family for having shared your
time, your talents, and the
treasury of your love with us.

A closer look at Agnes Scott

^ by Sandra Earle
Earley '69
ON THE DAY OF HER RETIRE-
ment celebration, her pupils, their
parents, and the schtxil staff
released hundreds and hundreds ot
balkxins blue, pink, yellow, orange
into the sky over South Florida.
Like notes in bottles, but more beautiful
tor their fragility, the balkx)ns carried a
message k>r all who might see them. "The
Gcxd Years," they read.
It was fun and also a philosophy.
"The Good Years" meant the 10 years
that Joella Craig Gcxxi '43 was principal
Coconut Grove Elementary Schcwl, a
racially and ectinomically halved Miami
schiwl, with 310 pupils and 25 teachers
and aides. Gtxxi officially retired July 1,
1984, at age 61. A form of leukemia
threatened not her life, but her health and
energy, making her decide it best to
separate herself from children, their sniffles
and their activity.
But the GcxxJ years will be remembered
as the decade Q)conut Grove Elementary
SchcKil changed.
From a place where tcxi many teachers
read novels or rummaged through their
purses as the children did busy-work at
dieir desks, it changed to a place where
learning was primary, with two programs
for advanced children a virtually
unheard of weakh in a Dade Qiunty
Schtxjl.
From a place where kids knight to draw
bkKid and other children ran from their
classRxims to watch, to a place u'here the
pupils texik it on themselves to stop fights.
From a place where children uimed
their back on the principal in disrespect as
she tried ti> counsel them, to a place
where they bragged aKxit how bad things
used to be, to stress hiiw tine things are
niAv.
"All the kids had what do you call
them? those switchblades," one third-
grader confided to a MitiTiii Hcraki repi.)rter
last July
They didn't, of course, Joella Cjixxj says
now. "Rut they did carry othet kinds of
knives and scissors as potentially harmkil.

"I surely did learn a lot," Good adds.
The former principal is a master of
understatement, a PoUyanna of syntax.

inflame," she says.
Ask her why she worked
so hard and stayed

simply, "I believe it is my job to

Throughout her years at the school,
Joella Good steadfastly refused to paddle
pupils whatever the pressure, the anger, or
the behavior of the children themselves.
She did, however, once buy a paddle and
take it to her office.
During an early faculty meeting, a male
teacher who opposed her stood and asked
her how many kids she had paddled since
she arrived. "I thought, 'Oh, Lord, give
me the words,' " the Presbyterian church
elder remembers. "And I said, 'Every one
who needed it.' "
An area superintendent her bt)ss
issued the same challenge. She told him
flatly that as long as it was a principal's
prerogative to decide as it is in Dade
County Schools corporal punishment
would not be used in her school.
The resolve grew out of a tragic
incident in the Qiconut Grove
community the summer before Gotxi tcxik

typical understatement.

and burned to death by two young boys,

Respect. Pride. Tolerance.
"Mainly we taught people to respect
each other," Gocxd says. "We had to
convince people that we were trustworthy,
reliable, and dependable. As principal, I
had to convince people that I was more
interested in children than in being
principal . . . that 1 didn't need power for
my ego."

IN A WORLD IN WHICH STARVING ETHIOPIANS
die before television cameras, where dictatorships of the
left and right stifle billions of humans, and where gross
poverty is a fact of life, idealistic liberal arts students, must,
It times, feel impotent battling much greater forces than
:hemselves. And how can a student neglect the fact that the
:apitalism that seems to foster some of life's inequities is the
;ame system that allows him or her to attend college?
A group of students and faculty members, including some
rem Agnes Scott and other colleges in the Southeast,
discussed these dilemmas recently at the symposium on
Christian Faith and Economic Values held on Hilton Head
sland. The symposium is sponsored, organized, funded, and
ed by the men of the First Presbyterian Church of Hilton
-lead, a group of executives, most of whom are retired.
Students and faculty members first heard from William B.
OValton, retired vice-chairman of the board and co-founder of
holiday Inns, Inc., who told them how he opposed gambling
3n moral grounds and fought hard in the corporate
bureaucracy against Holiday Inns' opening up gambling
;asinos. When that effort failed, he resigned.
Of course this option is often available to those
;onfronting moral decisions in the corporate world, but does
:he resignation of one man, even such a highly placed man,
Tiatter when a corporation like Holiday Inns finds the lure of
;;ambling irresistable? No, the students seemed to agree in a
discussion following the speech that practicalities outweigh
Tioral imperatives in such a situation. Indeed the executive's
decision can be compared to the students simply giving up.
IN ANOTHER SITUATION DISCUSSED AT THE
conference, what does a highly moral executive do about
his or her corporation's decision to close a plant and
:hrow hundreds, if not thousands, out of work? At one
extreme, should the executive insist that the plant remain
Dpen to protect those jobs even if it's no longer economically
/iable? Or should he or she resign? Again, the only realistic
answer seems to be working within the system to help those
aid off and working just as hard to create favorable
situations at other factories so those people will not be laid
off.
At least the executive who resigned recognized the
problem and the students seemed to agree that
recognition- is a key to solving the problem. In the upper
middle-class society that has spawned most of today's
students, it would be easy to stick one's head ostrich-like in
the sand. But not acknowledging the problem doesn't make it
go away as America found out when blacks rioted in cities
in the 1960s.
THE STUDENTS ALSO DISCUSSED TWO
questions which they considered before the
symposium. One of the root questions for our society
concerns the distribution of wealth. Should those who create
and accumulate wealth be allowed lo keep and invest their
own funds? Or should government take a large share of
private wealth through taxation and reallocate it to
accomplish social goals through government spending?
The consensus growing out of the students' discussion was
that everyone should be given an equal chance in life from
birth. That would be the only way to alleviate the problem of
inequality in the United States and the world. The trouble
with this redistribution of wealth as those who
demonstrated on college campuses in the late 1960s found out
is that it's not going to come about in the foreseeable
future. Our system will allow all kinds of dynamic change,
hut not this one.
But, if our system is not going to lend itself to societal
upheaval, then what can we do? As it turns out the answer is
"many things" because we all have more power than we
think. Not all the activism of the late 1960s was wasted for
instance. After all, students protested vociferously in such
great numbers that they helped fuel American discontent
against the war in Vietnam. This is not saying that taking
one's feelings to the street automatically solves anything. But
it's an available option.
A more realistic option is first deciding what cause the
student wants to embrace whether it is the anti-Apartheid
movement, the push for worldwide arms control, or for an
ethical American policy in Central America. Liberal arts
students are particularly well-placed to identify this problem
with the exposure to society given them by their English,
political science, history, and economics courses.
As Agnes Scott economics professor Dr. William Weber,
who attended the Hilton Head conference, puts it, "A liberal
arts student is best equipped to see problems and work to
solve them. Engineering students might look at the problem
in the same ways at all times while liberal arts students can
ponder different solutions."
Having noted the particular problem, the student must
work hard at the campus level to build a consensus toward
solving it. This may mean on the one hand trying to get class
discussions centered around the issue and, on the other

some, the phenomenon holds out
hopes for bettering humans' lot on this
planet. For others, though, it raises the
chimera of humans tampering with the
very essence of life with incalculable
dangers including widespread infection
and the risk of the process falling into

course which has allowed students to
understand better the science of
genetic engineering, discuss its
potential ramifications, and reach
differing conclusions on the extent to
which it should be used; in other
words, how much power should humans
have over life itself?
The course comes at a particularly
pivotal time in the genetic engineering
controversy. Last year, author and
lecturer Jeremy Rifkin, through a
federal lawsuit, successfully kept a
group of California scientists from
conducting an experiment in genetic
engineering. Now the scientists are
once again experimenting with altering
a bacterium to raise the frost resistance
of plants on which it is sprayed. So the

particular issue is environmental

many of whom have waged battle after
battle for the right to investigate are
divided on all important questions.
Will releasing this new organism into
the atmosphere cause unforeseen
damage? Will it lead to the destruction
of vital elements in our environment?
At first, these questions seem no
different from the usual environmental
concerns about PCBs and other

chemical pollutants, a concern perhaps
amplified by the Bhopal disaster in
India. But there is one big difference
between chemical and biological
hazards. The latter, if successfully
adapted, can multiply sometimes at
a truly mind-boggling rate. No wonder
that these potentially hazardous
consequences are on an entirely
different plane from those of most
chemical pollutants. Once successful,
the biological hazard could grow almost
uncontrollably.
The proponents of experimentation
characteristically minimize the
probability of a disaster and urge
society to weigh the small chances of
something going wrong against the
good consequences of a successful
experiment. Already, for instance,
scientists have developed insulin for
diabetics in a laboratory instead of
extracting it from horses. Insulin
produced in the lab is less expensive
and does not result in complications,
such as allergic reactions, that insulin
from horses can cause.
Opponents point to the little that is
known about the consequences of the
experiment and its probabilities; they
offset the promised good against the
possibility however improbable of
a new plague with the consequences of
a thousand Bhopals.
What is intriguing and a little
frightening to an observer is that
frequently neither side has firm
evidence for its claims. So both sides
deal in probabilities for which there is
very little data. All they agree on is
that knowing the way genes are put
together allowed scientists to change
them to achieve different effects in
living organisms. And most
experiments involve bacterium, in
8 SPRING 1985
which DNA can be altered with
relative ease. Each group takes its
minimal information and projects an
outcome amazingly consistent with its
own scientific ambitions and projects.
Where data is scarce, speculation
abounds.
And what will happen when humans
begin to think about altering the shape
or person of the human an
inevitable step that was heralded by
Crick's and Watson's discovery of the
structure ot DNA. Then what counts
as knowledge will be up for grabs. Such
issues are bewildering in their
complexity and intriguing in their
promise. Clearly, genetic engineering
raises questions that scientists cannot
answer completely at the moment.
Therefore, it seems apt that the
Agnes Scott honors seminar, funded
by a faculty development grant, is
interdisciplinary. To do justice to such
deep issues, students would have to
study the biology of genetic
engineering, the sociological and
psychological background of the
controversy, and the philosophical and
literary dimensions of the controversy.
After an introduction discussing the
seminar's goals, it began its long march
through history, philosophy, and
literature a long march that would
finally return to the present. The
seminar's fundamental thesis is that the
contemporary controversies
surrounding genetic engineering have
roots in that Western tradition of
which the humanities are the guardian.
Understanding the contemporary
controversies results from
understanding their background.
This last point can be illustrated
through the writings ot one of the
protagonists in the genetic engineering
drama. In arguing that this
phenomenon is the ultimate evil
of the technological age, Jeremy Ritlcin
claims that humankind has adopted the
wrong attitude towards nature
humans should cooperate with the rest
of nature rather than exploit it.
But in making such arguments,
Rifkin is unconsciously using concepts
and invoking attitudes which come
from different eras. Evaluating the
force of his objection depends upon
knowing, among other things, how
society's contemporary notion of nature
developed and how other ages
understood the relationship between
humanity and nature.
So the seminar would begin with
ancient Greeks and their notions of the
universe and of nature and end up with
Darwin a vast and endlessly
\
i
I
fascinating journey. Finally, the class
would arrive back at the contemporary
controversies, look at them again and
see what the wisdom of those centuries
can offer to comprehending society's
present problems.
Naturally, such a procedure is itself
controversial. For instance, some feel
CI Will freshmen
have the ability
to engage in such
intellectually
perilous activities?
that, even if discourse between
disciplines is possible, freshmen cannot
possibly have the sophistication to
engage in such intellectually perilous
activities. First let them learn biology,
philosophy, psychology, sociology, and
literature, then let them try to talk
across disciplinary lines.
There is no better answer to these
arguments than the experience here
and elsewhere of those who have
tried. The care with which the
questions are put, the materials
organized, and the students' thinking
and writing guided are the real
conditions for success.
And what about the execution of the
faculty's grandiose plan? The syllabus of
' the course has proven to be remarkably
durable; the intellectual validity of
their approach has time and again been
established. They have discovered
much that illuminates the contemporary
controversies, and this has led to high
ambitions.
And what are those aspirations?
Students must have the experience
of tackling important and difficult
problems of public policy, analyzing
those problems, and producing
solutions. No longer can they be mere
observers; they must use the best
of their analytic abilities and
^, humanistically tempered understanding.
^i If errors in this regard must be made, it
is better to err on the side of
enthusiasm for these goals. And the
subject of genetic engineering is
important enough to call on all their
energy and intellectual talent. This is
the sort of experience that the
professors want for their seminar. D

~T^ r. Margaret W. Pepperdene, the Ellen Douglass Leyhum
JLJ Professor of English and chairperson of the English
department from 1967 to 1984, retires this year after 29 years at
Agnes Scott.
Before coming here she held a tenured position on the English
tiiculty of Miami University in Oxford,
Ohio, where, she says, "I had a 96-srudent
freshman class which 1 rauyht i)n
rele\'ision. Student assistants graded papers
and 1 JLLst lectured into a camera."
She was thinking ot lea\'inK what
seemed to het a sterile profession when IV.
Walter Clyde Curry, her major professor at
Vanderbilt University, reccimmended her
for a position at Agnes Scott. When she
inter\'iewed and met ptofessors George P.
Hayes, Ellen l\)uglass Leyhum, and other
members of the faculty, she found
"teachers who were students. Teachers,"
she remembers, "who quietly and
completely ga\'e themselves to learning
and to teaching."
Attracted by this "whole new kind of
academic world," Dr. Pepperdene joined
the Agnes Scott faculty in the fall of 1956.
No description of L)r. Pepperdene in
the classroom can capture the play
of It. Her lectures are frequently
funny, but her ready laugh only enhances
her serious purpose as she leads her
students to ask hard questi(.)ns of the text.
For Th; CMnierhiry Tciks class she still
types her lectures double-spaced on 8/: x

her fn'orite lectern. E<ich lecture is a fully
developed, elegantly stRictured essay that
illuminates the poetry fot her students.
With every class she makes another
pilgrimage because she believes that with
each reading the poetry speaks new and
fresh and true. She is sensitive to the
class' moixl and to shifts in her students'

she quickly mo\'es from behind the lectern

as vwll as the ones that were. She teaches
her students from the wealth cif her study,
but she is also ready to learn what her
students think and to test their reading
against the text.
Dr. Pepperdene honors her students by
her painstaking preparation for each class
preparation earned by long evenings in
her study at home and by her careful
consideration of their questions or
statements. Her classroom is marked by
the respect and affection and enthusiasm
for the poetry that teacher and students

she recei\'ed a Ft)rd Foundation Graduate
Fellowship to teach at Vanderhilt. She
joined the faculty of Miami University as
an instructor in English in 1952, and two
years later she was granted tenure and
promotion to assistant professor.
In 1954 the Diihlin Institute for
Advanced Studies named her a fellow and
the American Associatit)n of Uni\'ersity
Women granted her a fellowship to
research Celtic smdies in Dublin. Then,
in 1956, Dr. Pepperdene received the
award ccweted hy established artists and
scholars alike: the John Simon
Guggenheim Fellowship to support her
smdies in Old English literature.
/"^ hortly after Dr. Pepperdene came to
J Agnes Scott, alumnae secretary Ann
^^ Worthy Johnsi)n wR)te in the
Alumnae Qmirttrrly that Pepperdene had
"made a special place for herself as a
teacher. "
Dr. Pepperdene wrote in the same issue
that the students at Agnes Scott "possess
an intellecaral energy, an eagerness to
learn, and a delight in the learning
process." This mutual regard between Dr.
Pepperdene and her students has
continued.
Throughout her tenure at Agnes Scott,
Dr. Pepperdene has taught freshman
English, a section of the sophomore course
in English literature, Chaucer's The
Ccmierhiiry Tales, his Truibis aivl Criseyde
and minor poems, and Old English. The
Canterbury Tales course consistently enrolls
not only English majors but students from
disciplines as diverse as mathematics,
physics, French, psychology, theatre, and
chemistry.
Whenever students needed a course but
nci instructor was available, C>r.
Pepperdene often taught it. She has also
taught numerous students in special smdies
courses and has directed independent
smdies for 50 or more English majors not
only in Old English, Chaucet, and the
medieval romance, but also in Thomas
Hardy, Gerard Manley Hopkins, James
Joyce, T.S. Eliot, Flannery O'Connor,
Richard Wilbur, and even Dante.
Rs chairperson of the English
department. Dr. Pepperdene's
primary concern remained with
the smdents, and she inx'olved them in
activities sponsored by the department. In
1972, she planned and directed the
quartercentenary celebration of the birth
of John Donne, inviting eminent scholars
from all over the country She edited the
presentations into the book That SiStik
Wreath.
The same year she organized the first
English department Writers' Festival, in
which May Sarton, then a visiting
professor at Agnes Scott; Michael Mott, '
recently the author of The Sevei\ Miiuntains
of Tkrmas Merum; and Marion
Montgomery, writer- in-residence at the
University of Georgia; were participants.
The Writers' Festival became an annual
event, bringing Donald Davie, Guy
Davenport, Eudora Welty, Reynolds Price,
James Merrill, Richard Wilbur, Josephine
Jacobsen, and numertius others to campus.
On all these occasions. Dr. Pepperdene
arranged breakfasts or lunches with
smdents, or receptions or parties for Agnes
Scott smdents to have every chance to
spend time with the writers.
Dr. Pepperdene's contributions to the
intellecmal life of her smdents go beyond
the classroom and the guest lecturers.
Smdents have in\'ited her many times to
speak to prospective smdents, incoming
freshmen at convocation, senior
investimre, sophomore parents' weekend,
and numerous other occasions. Last
summer she was one of three professors
asked to teach at the inaugural Agnes
Scott Alumnae College.
She has also addressed many colleges,
uni\'ersities, and educational groups on
literamre and on the \'alues of liberal and
humane learning. Last spring she was the
keynote speaker at the symposium
sponsored by Phi Beta Kappa and the
Mississippi Council tor the Humanities at
Mississippi State University for Women on
"1984: The Human Imperative
Technolo,gy and the Humanities in
Perspective."
This academic year. Dr. Pepperdene
has come full circle. Ha\-ing
resigned as department chairperson,
she is back where her long teaching life at
Agnes Scott began in the classroom
with her smdents. Chaucer's description of
the clerk in the general prologue of The
Canterhiry Tales aptly describes Dr.
Pepperdene "gladly wolde he leme and
gladly teche."
Through all the poetry and stories she
has taught, she has touched the place
where knowledge, belief and being do not
separate. Her smdents can best testify to
what their prcifessor once wTOte:
''Knowledge that possesses
the heart as well as the head
pervades the entire being. "

Hello and Goodbye led to
Boesman and Lena (1969).
Fugard's Lena is a mixed-breed
woman who incarnates the will
to live. Destitute, barren (all
children stillborn except the
one who ^
lived only six
months), and battered by her
...*s^-;-"A.r

lifelong companion Riesman,
Lena still dances and sinys in
the mudflats where she spends
one cold evening under the
stars, a female equivalent of
Beckett's tramps. She takes
comfort that her existence has
been ackntwledged by two
living creatures a dog and
an old Atrikan who dies that
night by her fire.
Emasculated by his scxiiety,
Ek)esman can relate to no one,
and when Lena challenges
him, he wants to kill her. She,
however, has the last word in
their ongoing battle of wills:
"I'm alive, Boesman. There's
daylights left in me. You still
got a chance. Don't lose it.
Next time you want to kill me,
do it. Really do it. When you
hit, hit those lights out. Don't
be ttx) late. L\i it yourself"
Fugard told Mel Gussow of
The Neiv Yirrk Times that he
considers B(.ie5nwn and Lerui "an
examination of a relationship
between a man and a woman
in which the man is a bully
and a chauvinist. ... 1 think
my wife [Sheila Meinngj has
been on the receiving end of a
lot of that sort of greed and
selfishness. We've got past that.
I'm a feminist now and the
play is dedicated to Sheila"
(New Yorker, Dec. 20, 1982,
Page 70).
In 1972 Fugard created his
first white professional woman,
a thirtyish, spinster libranan
named Fneda Joubert. She falls
in love with a black high
schixil pnncipal, Errol
Philander a criminal oflense
under South African law. The
play, StuitTTumts after an Arrest
under the Imnurrcdity Act,
lyrically rectiunts their
romance, which is ciimplicated
not only by law, but also by
morality because Errol is
married and has a family. It
also graphically depicts the
horror of their arrest.
Of all Fugard's women,
Frieda comes closest to
dramatizing the tomients tif
love and guilt. Before the arresi
she had ttild Errol; "Go home
. . . and look after your family

LF TOM SAWYER HAD A FEMALE
double, It would be Mildred Jennings,
ew from Jennings' '28 college days
would believe that this woman who spent
much of her college lite "campused" on
weekends, later owned and operated a
nursing home and adopted twt) children as
a single parent in her titties.
"I never meant to break any rules," she
says, raising her eyebrows, "it jast seemed
to happen sometimes."
Her mischievous behavior ninged from
stacking and glueing gentlemen suitors'
hats together as they waited tor their dates
in the domi lobby, to ct)ercing another
student to join her in ha\'ing wisdom teeth
extracted to avoid their taking an exam.
(Mildred paid for the latter trick when the
dentist accidentally briike her jav\'Kine. As
a result, she developed an infection which
caiLsed her to drop out t)t schtx)l for awhile.)
Recalling some of her college
expenences, Mildred said that her respect
tor people and her positive attimde akuit
life which have carried her through her
life's work with the elderly, orphans, and
disabled \'eterans came from the years
she spent at Agnes Scott. The humorous,
quick-witted alumna has earned a

far cry from her adventures at Agnes Scott,
where she faced Dean Nannette Hopkins
regularly to explain her latest prank.
Mildred's relationship with l\*an Hopkins
began when she amved at Agnes Scott
from Augusta, Ga., with a note to the dean
from Mildred's physician father. On
prescription paper, her father wrote:
"Mildred has my pemiission to do anything
she wants. "
That might have been all right with
Mildred's father, but I\'an Hopkins had
other ideas. Not that Mildred and the dean
had a bad relationship. O^nte the contrary,
according to Mildred.
One weekend, when Mildred and three
other students were campused, they asked
TElO
Ella Carey, a Gnllege employee who was a
favorite among students, to gi\-e them a big
tin of apple jelly With jelly in hand, the
pranksters prcKeeded to sneak into each
faculty house and smear the sticky substanc
over the toilet seats.
The next Mcmday, the foursome were
sumnuined into the dean's office, one at a
time. Mildred was the last to face the dean
who by that time, had determined all to ht
guilty. Dean Hopkins kxiked directly into
Mildred's eyes and said to her, "Mildred, I
have just one question for you. VX7i\ did yo
smear apple jelly on all the faculry toilet
seats?"
Mildred's only reply was, "How did they
know it was apple jelly?"

she is the essence of the "all for
love" and "the world well lost"
which defines these
Shakespearean heroines; she is,
in short, a latter-day romantic
trapped in a system which
denies her the personal right to
love.
With The Road to Mecca
(1984) Fugard pierfected his
earlier explorations of female
psychology. Elsa Barlow, the
schcxilteacher, and Helen
Niemand, the sculptress, have
a friendship bom of mutual
admiration and need. From
Elsa's arrival after a grueling
800-mile car trip in response to
a suicidal letter from Helen,
the play unfolds the disciple-
master, pupil-mentor
relationship between the two
women. Edgy, querulous, and
anguished, Elsa questions
Helen, and a portrait of the
isolated artist emerges which
transcends gender differences.
Helen both exults in and suffers
from the consequences of her
creativity a garden full of
cement camels, wise men,
mythological animals, and
Easter Island goddesses and a
house designed to resemble the
interior of Mecca.
At the end of the play,
when Helen admits that she
can go no further on the road
to her vision, that she must
leam to live with the candles
blown out "and all that
means" melodrama gives
way to humor as Elsa produces
some Valium pills as a fitting
accompaniment to a p(-)t of tea.
Sublimely ignorant of what
they are, Helen calls them
"artificial sweeteners." Elsa
laughs loudly and agrees that
yes, that's what they are. As
the lights come down, the
tableau is a joyful Elsa ready to
"leap" trustingly into Helen's

"It seems for a while 1 spent more time

In class, she was often a cut-up, and one
3f her remarks got her thrown out of class.
But professors had their fun with Mildred,

On a Bible test which asked the names of

Vlildred's paper promptly: "The Lord gets an

The administration and faculty
always felt Mildred and her friends were
worth watching, Mildred admits, "But they
always made you feel there was something
fine about you. "
This respect and love for pieople that she
experienced at Agnes Scott carried her
through the years as she completed her
graduate degrees in social work, hospital
administration, and health education.
Mildred taught high schixtl for nine years
and then went to work for the Georgia
Welfare Department, placing orphans in
homes during the Depression in a pexir,

do well in siKial work, she needed propier
qualifications, s<) she returned to school for

Chicago for 12 years. Then she rekxated to
Augusta to direct s(.x;ial work services at the
VeterarLS Administration Htispital where she
placed disabled veterans in the community.
She always set a goal in each of her jobs,
worked hard to attain the goal, and once it
was met, pursued another challenge.
Her rw(.) greatest challenges met with the
greatest obstacles adopting two young
girls in the early 1960s and purchasing a

onions, and tomato sauce.
Dr. Schmidt even has the

gestures against a world-wide evil can
be as effective as Jeremiah's crying out
in the wilderness. But as the late
president John F. Kennedy said, 'A
journey of a thousand miles begins with
a single step." When these small
gestures are multiplied a thousand
times or more, people listen. Building a
consensus is not easy but it can be
done as shown by the students
rights cause in the mid-1960s and, as
noted, the anti-war revolt of the late
1960s.
Interestingly enough, no student at
the conference came down four-square
against capitalism other than
amending it to give everyone equal
rights at birth. No one said that
communism, socialism, or any other
kind of non-democratic system was the
best way to address society's woes. Nor
did anyone decry the advantage given
him or her by capitalism in attending
college. The students realized the
American capitalistic system has its
flaws, but it IS still the best
hope for humankind in solving the
problems that scar the planet.
Activism, whether simple persuasion
or noisy demonstrations, is our system's
best hope for changing the things that
make life unfair tor most of the
inhabitants of the globe.
One can't fundamentally change the
nature of the system, as people found
out in the late 1960s. But, with
determination and energy one can
make the system fairer, as Americans
showed then. It is incumbent on
today's students to make that same
contribution. They may be a quieter
generation than those previously but, if
they are similarly inspired by life's
inequalities, they can still make a
difterence. D

AGNES SCOTT NOTED
FOR POSITIVE MINORITY
ENVIRONMENT
In a recent USA TODAY
article, Agnes Scott was
listed as one of the
predominantly white colleges
that fostered a positive
environment for black
students.
The article was based on a
book, The Black Student's
Guide to Colleges, which was
the result of a survey con-
ducted by Brown University
professor Barry Beckham.
Beckham asked black stu-
dents which colleges had
clo.se relationships between
students and faculty, and
black students and white stu-
dents, and which offered
activities or courses that edu-
cated students on African
and Afro-American culture.
Agnes Scott was cited fot
"good academics, support
services, faculty, and black-
white relations."

,robury House, a manor
_ with cottages and gar-
dens situated on the banks
of southwestern England's
River Wye, lies nearer to the Black
Mountains overlooking Wales than to
Edinburgh or to London. Yet the estate
has a distinctly Scottish ambience
Agnes Scott-ish, that is.
For the past 15 years, Brobury House
has been home to Margaret Andes
Okarma '52 and her husband and
family. Since 1980, the estate has been
the scene ot a unique tra\'el experience
worthy ot Gourmet or Travel and Leisure
magazines. With the help ot two either
Agnes Scott alumnae and a third
Atlanta-area friend, Mrs. Okarma
annually otters a series ot summer
"houseparties" at Brobury. She
accommodates ctnly 16 guests at a time
and treats them to the tull pleasures ot
the English countryside and uianor lite.
" 'If It's Tuesday, This Mtist Be
Belgium' is definitely not us," declares
Mrs. Okarma, sitting in the Buckhead
li\'ing room of Anne-Scott Harman
Mauldin '35 during a trip to the United
States recently. Together with
Elizabeth (Lib) Blackshear Flinn '58
and a Sweet Briar alumna in Atlanta,
Jean M(.)ister, Mrs. Mauldin acts as
marketing representative for the
houseparties, showing slides to
interested groups and mailing brochure^
and sample itineraries on request.
There are no travel agencies, no
advertisements, no sales pitches; all
contacts are strictly word-ot-mouth.
"We like to say that everybody kntnvs
somebody who knows somebody," Mrs.
Okarma explains. Though there is no
official association with Agnes Scott
College, 'A lot ot our guests maybe
15 percent are alumnae from
Agnes Scott."
The typical Brobury houseparty is a

The Brobury houseparty grew out ot
I summer visit to the Okarma
esidence several years ago by some
ongtime Atlanta friends, Elizabeth
ind Bill Flinn. The original Okarma-
'linn "houseparty" was so pleasant that
he two couples decided to try
ecruiting several more couples from
\merica for a two-week, paid
louseparty to show off the estate and
he Okarma's corner ot England.
Since Mrs. Mauldin joined the team
n 1982 to help relieve Mrs. Flinn
the houseparties have taken on a ***
ife of their own. Guests have heard
ibout Brobury from Washington state
o Florida, and quite a tew have
eturned two or more summers in a
ow, often with friends and relatives
n tow.
While Mauldin and Okarma scarcely
ook on themselves as entrepreneurs,
hey're both clearly delighted and
omevvhat surprised with their new
nid-life "career." Mrs. Mauldin has
lisco\'ered the challenges (and
rustrations) of using her own IBM
'ersonai Computer to keep track ot
louseparty details such as itineraries,
;uest lists, and mailings. And Mrs
Okarma says torth-
rightly, "I've
discovered that I iikg. worrying about
the big stuff the bills, the quality of
food coming out of the kitchen, the 16
different personalities at my table."
For Mrs. Mauldin, working with the
Brobury houseparty was "a wondt^rtul
idea" that capitalized ow her lov jbr ,'
travel. Through Atlanta's Friendlhip , '
Force, she had already visited Belgiuip,
England, and Korea as well as "*-*.,
welcomed numerous Friendship jporcss^.
visitors to Atlanta. A
Mrs. Okarma says that after her
children were grown and living ^ '
"J have a t/u'ng about iiomai 'voo&tmg
their Uves. You turn 50, your children
leave home. . . . 1 think you should use
what you've got." -\ '*
elsewhere, she began to see Brobury
House itself as something worth
sharing. "1 have a thing about women
wasting their li\'es," she says. "You turn
50, your children leave home .... I
think you should use what you've got.
What 1 could do was entertain guests. I
found that I ct>uld use my talents in a
way that didn't disrupt the common ,
good, that didn't put my husband
and children at a disadvantage
or disrupt their lives." D

Mildred became a mother when her
lather, a prominent physician in Augusta,
brought her a baby girl who had been
abandoned. A tew years later, this little girl
named Jimmie, began praying tor a little
sister When Mildred found another orphan
girl, she and Jimmie went to bnng home
their new addition to the family, whom they
named Bobbie. Although Jimmie is now
married, the trio are inseparable.
juggling miitherhtxxi with the help of a
nanny, Mildred ran the nursing home,
Jennings Manor, for 13 years, like a "real
home." She installed carpets, cleaned the
facility, and offered individually requested
meals. She hired the most qualified people
she could find, carekilly supervised
activities, and visited patients regularly.
"A// 1 wanted was for those
people to be treated right. . . .
whatever they wanted, as long
as I had a penny, I'd see that
they got it. "
Under her administration, the nursing
home grew from 17 to 79 beds.
"All 1 wanted was for those people to be
treated nght. The nursing home was for the
residents. Whatever they wanted, as king as
I had a penny, I'd see that they got it."
As a full-time mother and nursing home
administrator, she still found time to be
involved in her hometown of Augusta.
There, she has served on the Girls Center
board, was a consultant to the United Way,
on the board of the Salvation Army, and
spearheaded the development ot the Mental
Health Asstxiation.
Listed in Wh)'s Wh) of Amenam Women
and Who's Who m Georgia, Mildred has
been actively involved with the United
Way, Georgia Gerontology Asaxiation,
American Hospital Association, American
Society for Hospital ScKial Workers,
Council of the Royal Society of Health of
London, and Georgia Mental Heakh
AsstKiation.
Although she has since stild the nursing
home and her children are grown, Mildred
remains active. Former employee and close
friend Manon Gelzer describes Mildred as
one who shares her ideas with others,
supports someone in developing community
programs, and then gives that individual full
credit. Mildred's phone nngs continually at
her home with calls from people asking
advice t)r help, which she freely gives.
Her liberal arts education and college
relationships, she says, formed a foundation
on which she planned and lived her lite
to work hard in whatever she pursued, to
increase her knowledge, and to attempt the
nearly impossible and to win. D

IN APRIL 1974, WHEN ANNOUNC-
ing the appointment of Vitginia Brown
McKenzie as alumnae director, Marvin
Perry, then president of the College, said,
"Agnes Scott is most fortunate to enlist the
services of a woman ot Mrs. McKenzie's
winning personality, energy, and
managerial ability so necessary for this
important position." Now, on the eve of
Virginias retirement, as 1 pause to reflect
upon that past decade in which Virginia's
career and my years of most active
alumnae involvement so closely coincided,
I am reminded of just how much her
loyalty and support have meant both to
me and to the QiUege.
A native Atlantan whose parents were
both educators, Virginia Lee Brown
exhibited both in high schcwl and college
the leadership abilities which were utilized
through subsequent chapters of her life. A
1947 graduate of Agnes Scott with a major
in journalism, and the wife of John Stuart
McKenzie, Virginia is the mother of tour
children, one of whom is an alumna,
Cla.ss of 70.
Twice president of the Atlanta Club
and a team captain in the 75th
Anniversary Capital Funds Campaign,
Virginia kept alive those alumnae ties
which have served her well since she
joined the Qillege on a full-time basis.
In the more than a decade of Virginias
service, alumnae affairs have increased in
virtually all areas: alumnae giving,
continuing education, alumnae travel
groups, alumnae participation in QiUege
activities and planning, and attendance for
Alumnae Weekend and Alumnae
Leadership Conference. The award
program for recognition of outstanding
alumnae has become a tradition
enthusiastically repeated each year; the

Fifty Year club, fomied in Virginia's
administration, is one ot the most
energetic in the class organization's
stmcture.
&mtinuing interest in the Gillege was
furthered by a magazine, edited by
Virginia, and published quarterly
Continuing interest in alumnae themselves
was reflected in the systematizing of files
on each one, begun under Virginia's
direction.
Agnes Scott's alumnae director
represents the College on a national level
in the Council for Advancement and
Support of Education, and since 1975, in
ADAPT, an organization composed of
alumnae directors and alumnae association
presidents in 13 U.S. women's colleges.
In 1977, the first alumnae directory- in
29 years was published, a successful
demonstration of the combined efforts of
the alumnae staff and numerous
volunteers. At present, alumnae clubs
throughout the country constitute a
structure intact and ready to be utilized in
the approaching centennial campaign.
Important as all these advances are,
however, those of us who know Virginia
best realize that closest to her heart are
individual alumnae, whose lives make the
strongest statement for Agnes Scott.
Sincere respect and regard for alumnae are
the basis for Virginia's emphasis on the
importance of the alumnae representative
body, its board of directors. In cooperation
with seven alumnae presidents, Virginia
has worked tirelessly to broaden the range
of the Kiard's interest, intomiation, and
involvement. In Virginia's words, "Being
alumnae director has been a privilege - a
sheer joy because Agnes Scott alumnae ate
so very special. " D

OUT THE WINDOW
ome ot the articles in this issue
are uncomfortable to read.
I had trouble editing them
without sensing waves of strong
feeling flowing at the same time I
tried dispassionately to check gram-
mar and catch comma splices.
But maybe that's good. Dorothy
Burns Douglas '61, Eliza King
Paschall '38, Professor Deirdre Good
and Jean HoeferToal '65 are raising
good questions questions that press
us to rethink our answers as the world
changes around us. In this sense,
change is lifegiving. Like the seasons,
or turning up the earth each spring
before planting, change brings us
new problems to keep us thinking
and growing. But change is not
without sadness.
Last Saturday, change hit head-on:
My daughter turned 3 years old. Among other things,
her friends gave her a Lego building set, a pots-and-pans
play set and a black Hot Wheels Porsche, as well as a
pair ot overalls. In spite of our pride and excitement
over our 3-year-old, sometimes I miss the baby who
always could be comforted by nursing, or the toddler
who never refused a hug.
Liberal education prepares us to cope with change
because it teaches us how to keep asking: Who are we?
Why are we here? What do we have in common?
As Eliza Paschall notes in her article, we women
all over the globe, in all social, economic, and political
situations. Nations often have complex divisions among
their people. Surely, these divisions surfaced at the
United Nations Women's Conference in Nairobi, as they
have in any other international gathering.
ive
Paschall argues that when men
gather for international conferences,
they identify' substantive issues,
"represent the national interests of
theirowncountries,"and they aren't
expected to subordinate national
interests and responsibilities to
personal concerns. "There are no
women's issues that are not also men's
issues and vice versa. . . ," she
writes. "We cannot bring peace and
prosperity to women without bring-
ing peace and prosperity to men."
Unquestionably true.
Dorothy Douglas might add: in a
nuclear age, can we bring peace and
prosperity to America without bring-
ing peace and prosperity to the
world? Can we find peace solely in
the framework of our national
interests?
Eleanor Roosevelt clearly thought differently. Ap-
pointed to a "do-nothing" position as U.S. delegate and
chair of the UN Commission on Human Rights, she
outmaneuvered Secretary of State John Foster Dulles to
the day in 1948 when she addressed the UN General
Assembly to speak for passage ot the Uni\'ersal Declara-
tion on Human Rights. Though without legal force, the
document has stood as a common standard ot achieve-
ment for all persons of all nations, without regard to
color, race, religion or other differences. The declaration
set forth personal, political and civil rights that have
been the standard against which the United Nations
has measured nations' treatment of their people tor
almost 40 years.
In this issue ot the magazine, each individual demon-
strates a sense ot connectedness and responsibility for
the world around them that has characterized women's
education and the liberal arts. Lynn Donham

TURNABOUT
I am thoroughly enjoying the new
Alumnae Magazine. Its variety, appear-
ance, and overall quality are delightful.
1 was particularly interested in Mr.
Pousner's article on "The DNA Split."
We all must struggle with problems of
science and ethics, and it is very gratify-
ing to know that Agnes Scott students
are studying such urgent topics.
And I love the article on Margaret
Andes Okarma's ('52) house in England.
Could you put me in touch with Mrs.
Mauldin, Mrs. Flinn, or Ms. Moister,
who arrange the houseparties? Peyton
and 1 hope to go to England sometime
during the next year, and this sounds
fantastic! . . .

The Alumnae Magazine does have
"sparkle" and "pizzazz." The credit for
the photo of that darling baby goes to
you, Julie Culwell, but no word is given
concerning the charming baby the
cover girl or cover boy. Surely the subject
should be given recognition for being
such a photogenic and well-behaved
child!

found the contents to be more or less
interesting, I'm not terribly impressed
with the amount of money which must
go into the magazine's production. It
looks too much like a report to
stockholders!
And am I correct in presuming that
you are now paying for articles ? A far cry
from 1949 when I wrote a brief article
for the then magazine in return for a
"thanks" from Eleanor Hutchens.

LIFESP/LES
Morahan studies body's immune system
Every once in a while
it's good for people to
shake themselves up,"
Page Smith Morahan '61
said. She did just that
when she left a comfortable
home and a good job in
Richmond and moved to
Philadelphia to be the
microbiology chair at the
Medical College of Pennsyl-
vania, 'i was intrigued
with the possibility ot
being chairman at a small
private school somewhat
analogous to Agnes Scott."
Dr. Morahan is one ot
only five female medical
school department chairs
in the country. The Medi-
cal College of Pennsylvania
was one of the original
women's medical schools,
founded in 1850, and has
always attended to the
needs of women. It's co-ed
now, but more than 50
percent ot the student
population is female. The
percentage of women in
most medical schools is
only 25 to 30 percent, said
Dr. Morahan. The Medical
College ot Pennsylvania
faculty has more male
professors than female,
however. Still, she adds,
that's more female faculty
members than most medi-
cal colleges have.
Dr. Morahan said that
she accepted the job be-
cause she "felt like I could
continue doing research in
addition to my teaching
and administrative duties. "
Her main research explores
how the body defends itself
against microbial infec-
tions, particularly the
herpes simplex virus, in
tumors. She agreed that
AIDS has stolen the stage
from herpes and explained,
"AIDS is essentially lethal,"
and that's very rare. "If
someone is diagnosed with
AIDS, he will die within
three years. Herpes is a
tremendous problem if it is
not treated, but there is
little mortality."
She said her research
seeks to design better ways
to fight cancers in mi-
crobes. Now there are
three major ways to treat
cancer: surgery, radiation
and chemotherapy. A
fourth treatment, the use
of interferon, has received
much attention. Interferon
mobilizes the body and is
considered by some to be
preferable over the use of
chemotherapeutic drugs
which harm normal cells as
well as tumors. Scientists
are now tr>'ing to replicate
the body's immunological
hormones a whole new
arm of pharmacology.
"This will take another 10
years to perfect, hut 1
predict that it will be a
major way to treat cancer-
ous patients," said Dr.
Morahan.
Dr. Morahan credits her
success to a "good educa-
tion in science at Agnes
Scott'* the chemistry
degree has the stamp of
approval of the American
Chemistry Society and
to her experience as a
technician. "There are too
many people in faculty
positions without real
world experience," she
said.
Mentor and employer
Howard Schneider encour-
aged Dr. Morahan early in
her career. "He did some-
thing relatively unheard of
then. He put his assistant's
(my) name on a scientific
abstract. I then decided to
go to school full time and
attend Cornell Medical
School. " She got her Ph. D.
from Marquette University.
Dr. Morahan was a
Blackfriar and editor of
Silhouette at Agnes Scott.
Her interests have since
diversified; she lives in
Spring Garden Historic
District, a historically
certified neighborhood,
and IS interested in solar
energy, gourmet cooking,
quality craft art and wear-
able art. Most recently she
has learned to scuba dive
and swam the waters of the
Grand Cayman Islands,
the Bahamas and Portugal.
"I took the rugged 10-week
course with a bunch of
medical school jocks and
only four women were in
the class. I was certified
and have been diving ever
since. I plan to dive in the
Red Sea next year when m\
job will take me to Israel,"
she said.
Dr. Morahan said she
has learned that "it's not
easy to have dual-career
marriages and that one
needs to be willing to move
for one's profession even
though it's very difficult
and takes an extra commit-
ment. " Laurie K.

Bacon mokes mountains of mugs
t's been a family joke that
if one of the children is
going to a birthday party,
I ask him, 'would you like
to take a mug?' It worked
for a while," said Edna
McLain Bacon '66.
Ms. Bacon, a chemistry
major, has made a lot of
mugs since returning to
Agnes Scott for a fine arts
degree. A former Decatur
resident, she took craft
courses at the YWCA and
Decatur Recreation
Center. "I always thought
that you are either artistic
and create art or you enjoy
art and you create what
others have designed.
14 FALL 1985
LIFESmES
Then, I took a creative
stitchery class and discov-
ered I could learn how to
design."
Ms. Bacon decided that
she wanted to earn grades
and credits so she re-
entered Agnes Scott in
1976 tor a second degree in
fine arts and took her first
potter^' course under Profes-
sor Robert Westervelt.
Several years later she
and her family nroved to
Cartersville, Ga. 'As a
consolation tor leaving
Decatur, 1 set up a studio
and started selling pottery
to support my craft."
Ms. Bacon has taught
classes at the Adult Craft
Center in Montreat, N.C. ,
and the Arts Council in
Cartersville. She has
created everything from
wine and ratatouille. "I
don't have any idea how
many 4,000 is, but it's a
lot! I'll never be intimi-
dated about production
again," she said.
"I tell friends that getting
a job like that one is a
matter ot timing, luck and
knowing the right people. "
She remembers sending out
a large mailing in anticipa-
tion ot an upcoming arts
and crafts show. "One of
the recipients was Cloudt's
Catering, and they were
looking for an artist they
could commission to make
the cups." So they called
her and she made several
samples; they chose one
and placed the order.
Two years ago she de-
signed and made the
communion cups for the

coffee mugs to awards for a

greatest coup was a con-
tract for 4,000 wine cups

met Picnic on the eve ot
the Piedmont Arts Festival.
The cups were more like
Japanese tea cups, she
added, and were used for

rian churches. Her husband,
Steve, is a Presbyterian
minister.
Most recently, Ms.
Bacon showed her work at
the Cobb County Jubilee
Labor Day weekend.

Dr. Betty Brown
Sloop '65 has seen
education from
many different angles since
her graduation from Agnes
Scott. As a student, she
went from Agnes Scott to
Georgia State University,
where she was certified in
secondary social studies
and elementary education,
and then to North Georgia
College for her master's
degree in early childhood
education. She earned her
doctorate in educational
psychology from the Uni-
versity of Georgia. As a
teacher, she has been
involved on the preschool,
junior high and graduate
levelsT
Dr. Sloop's broad per-
spective on education led
to her appointment in June
1983 to Governor Joe
Frank Harris' Education
Review Commission, an
18-month project tor which
she served as vice chair of
the personnel committee.
The committee examined
preparation, certification,
staff development, evalua-
tion and compensation for
teachers and administrators
in Georgia's public school
system. The recommenda-
tions of the Education
Review Commission
tormed the basis of the
Quality Basic Education
Act, passed during the
1985 legislative session.
Now a special education
teacher working with gifted
students at Shiloh Middle
School in Gwinnett
County, Dr. Sloop is past
president ot the Georgia
Association tor Gifted
Children. Last summer, she
served on the Professional
Standards Commission,
which makes recommenda-
tions to the state Board of
Education, and was also
assistant director of instruc-
tion for the Governor's
Honors Program, an inten-
sive, six- week program for
academically outstanding
rising juniors and seniors.
At Governor's Honors, she
said, "I was able to combine
my two great loves work-
ing with teachers and
working with highly moti-
vated students."
In their home counr\' ot
DeKalb, Dr. Sloop and her
husband, Steve Sloop Jr.,
pastor of Emory Presbyte-
rian Church, work in PTA
at Avondale High School,
where their three children
attend.
One might wonder if
this dedication to educa-
tion runs in Dr. Sloop's
family; after all, her grand-
father, James Ross McCain,
was the second president of
Agnes Scott College.

Guest gives women 'just the facts'
Felicia Guest '66 said
Agnes Scott instilled
in her a hunger to be
a writer. She started fast
writing pamphlets for
Grady Hospital's Family
Planning Center following
graduation. "My commit-
ment to the subject area
was secondary," she said.

Nov\', more than 15 years
later, Ms. Guest has a
reputation and expertise in
women's reproductive
health and acts as training
coordinator for the Re-
gional Training Center tor
Family Planning, part ot
the Oh'Gyn department at
Emor\' University's School
of Medicine.
"It's a Held I expect to
stay in; it changes all the
time. One important issue
is women's reproductive
autonomy, which must
exist before women ha\'e
choices," she explained.
During the next 15 years
Ms. Guest expects to speak
to the needs of women who
are in the second half ot
their reproductive lite.
"The hahy boomers the
majority of the popula-
tion will be leaving the
baby-bearing years. They
will need to know about
menopause, calcium defi-
ciency, sterilization and
routine health care."
"1 have never met a
woman who felt that all of
her questions had been
adequately answered.
There is a great audience
out there for news about
reproductive health."
Last summer Ms. Guest
took a sabbatical to revise
M>' Body, My Health, a
700-page book she helped
write and edit, now a
classic in the tield. Last
revised in 1980, "the sec-
ond edition had nothing
about pre-menstrual syn-
drome, routine hormone
replacement for meno-
pausal women, or in vitro
fertilization. Also, the
chapter about the Pill was
ver\' negative," she said.
"Now the news is much
more positive. Research
forces you to change your
intellectual opinions."
Four days each week Ms.
Guest teaches and writes at
the training center. "I
write so women can stay
current, and I teach so
professionals can stay cur-
rent." She visits two to
three cities each month
among the eight southeast-
ern states that have family
planning centers to "keep
their stafts abreast of what's
going on in the field. " The
fifth day she commits to
freelance writing.
She also helped write
Contraceptive Technology, a
standard manual for health
professionals now in its
12th international edition.
Ms. Guest said that the
tirst books on contracep-
tion arose from the women's
movement and were \'ery
political. In writing My
Body, My Hea/th,"we
wanted to create a book
that was politically neu-
tral one that gave women
just the facts. I think that
we were very' successful in
that. Consumer Reports
would not have adopted
our book if it had been
political."
According to Ms. Guest
the '80s woman "just wants
the facts. She knows it's
okay to demand services
and ask questions from
doctors. She's more able to
take care of herself now. "

One's surplus is
another's supper
hen a commercial
freezer broke in
an independent,
Memphis grocery store,
Virginia L. Dunaway '56
was among the tirst to
know. She doesn't fix
freezers, but she is director
of the Memphis Food
Bank, and that was all the
grocer needed to know.
The Memphis Food Bank,
and some 75 other non-
profit Food Banks like it in
the country, solicits food
donations from wholesal-
ers, distributors, retailers
and others in the food
industry to be passed to
worthy agencies who help
teed hungry- people in the
community. The goods are
all high-quality, whole-
some foods which tor one
reason or another are un-
marketable to consumers.
The Memphis grocer
chipped in some 5,000
pounds of TV dinners, pot
pies and other frozen goods.
"Sitting in Rebekah
(and working toward a
history degree) I never
dreamed I'd be working
with a program like this,"
says Ms. Dunaway, who
now manages an 18,000
square-foot warehouse and
is well-versed in trucking,
food distribution and food
warehouse sanitation. "I
have found, though, that
my Agnes Scott education
has served me well," she
says. The writing skills she
gained at Agnes Scott have
helped her, no doubt, in
her frequent writing ot
proposals and reports. But
even more important, Ms.
Dunaway says, "I gained
self-confidence through my
education. I feel that I can
accomplish whatever needs
to be done."
A strong believer in
community service, she
was working with VISTA
(Volunteers In Service To
America) and MIFA
(Metropolitan Inter-Faith
Association) when the
opportunity to establish a
food bank in Memphis
arose. She helped develop
the program and became
director. She manages
both operations and public
relations, heightening
community awareness ot
the food bank's services
and soliciting support tor
the program.
It all adds up to tangible
results, she says. "I really
enjoy being in a position
where I can mobilize people
to help solve a community
problem and where I can
see that what we're doing
makes a difference." Lee

Hand-crafted
Homes
by Alisa Wendorph
From the second floor
balcony, job superin-
tendent Karl McPherson
and Judy Mozen go over
blueprints of a "spec"
house in Boulder Creek.
Behind them is the arch-
way of the front entrance.
A small woman backs out of
the shiny black Volvo wagon,
stuffing a roll of blueprints
under her arm. The Georgia clay of
the building site matches her two
pigtails, gathered tight with red craft
yarn. Her shadow, daughter Chelsea,
9, protectively balances a breakfast
bowl of yogurt on a sawhorse in what
will be the garage. Wearing Sasson
jeans, tennis shoes and a bright
flowered shirt Judy Jackson Mozen
'67, designer and builder, stands out
among the sunburned men with
carpenter belts.
Only a few of the workmen even
glance as she enters the framed
house. Another shadow, looking
much like a frenzied businessman in
shorts and a T-shirt, seeks her advice
immediately. Karl McPherson, job
superintendent, explains the
plumber's dilemma and solicits Judy's
quick response, "The faucet must go
here so the owner can reach it
without leaning too far over the tub
to turn it on," she says.
Judy smiles a lot as she talks to the
workmen. Her voice is a soft alto and
often sounds like a patient mother.
"Sometimes that is a disadvantage,"
said Judy. "Someone meets me for the
first time and thinks I don't know
what I'm doing. That 1 can be
pushed around. But I've been in this
for almost 10 years and I've learned
a lot. I just like to pick their brain
first. Then I make the decision based
on all the information I've gathered. "
She does not like to compromise
if the result is something less desir-
able for the homeowner. Instructing
AGNES SCOTT ALUMNAE MAGAZINE 71
the plumber, she insists on more
spigots outside, "I can't stand an
expensive house that has hoses
ever^'where because there aren't
enough (faucets)." She doesn't
scrimp when aesthetics are at stake.
An architect or designer is inter-
ested in the final look and "workabil-
ity" of a house. But the builder must
build the house within an estimated
cost. And building costs saved means
profit gained. Judy designs the house
ami is the builder. "Many feel that it
is a conflict of interest for a builder
to design a house; I disagree," said
Judy. "My heart and ego are in this
house. While I want to get my money
out of it, I'm not about to sabotage
my design, which is an advantage to
the homeowner."
"Judy is a perfectionist," said Dr.
Eugene Davidson. When he and his
wife first saw their house it was
basically finished. "I don't like things
done sloppily," said Davidson. "Too
many houses built in Atlanta, in any
price range, are done sloppily. This
house was built with a lot of care. If
Judy saw something not done well,
whether we had even noticed it or
not, she'd tear it apart and do it
over." Unsatisfied with their previous
homes, the Davidsons looked at more

than 100 houses, hunting one they
would not have to spend all their
time and money rebuilding to their
specifications. "This house was built
by craftsmen rather than just
builders," added Davidson.
Dot and Jerr>' Blum have been in
their house, designed and built by
Judy, four and a half years. "1 feel
like it's only been six months," said
Jerry, general manager of radio
station WQXI 94Q. "We wanted
high quality and seeing the homes
Judy had built, we were determined
to have her build ours when we were
ready. The building experience was
so pleasant, I would gladly do it
again. She's honest and does quality
work."
Quality work on unusual designs
is difficult to find. "There are few
contract construction workers in
Atlanta who do quality woodwork or
rockwork. So we trained a handful
of folks who are not on our payroll
but whom I keep calling back to do
the work on our homes," said Judy.
Blum is pleased, however she does it.
"Our house is not the traditional
Georgian house (square). It was
custom built and the flow of the
house and the construction are a
piece ofart." Patiently, Judy explains
to the hovering workmen, "I don't
want to come into just a kitchen, I
want to come into a nice room."
Judy enjoys relating to the client
family and wants their home to feel
personal, to feel warm. In that she
is successful. "We've been in our
house over a year and love it," said
Davidson. "The combination of
setting and the way the house was
built makes it unusual. The stone
and wood create a nice balance of
natural materials. It's more sophisti-
cated than most in Georgia and very
livable. It's fun, a pleasure to live in."
The attention to detail, a large
part of Judy's success, she says she
acquired at Agnes Scott. She ma-
jored in political science and history.
"The biggest thing Agnes Scott
contributed to what I'm doing now
is the need for perfection. In English,
we had to do it over and over 'til it
was right, and that's important in
what I'm doing now. " she said. Judy
is not a licensed architect only
commercial builders need a license.
'At this stage I can't see taking out
five years from work to go back to
school, my work doesn't fit their
mold. Besides, I don't need a license.
There is something about the Amer-
ican homesteader that will always
preserve the right of someone to buy
their own land and build their own
house. " She adds, grinning, "I would
love to teach some of the things I've
learned, but I don't think they're
ready for a woman."
Judy got much of her experience
by watching and making comments
as her ex-husband, Tom, a licensed
architect, designed houses. "I was
teaching high school social studies
in the Atlanta school system when
Tom and his partner purchased some
property to build the Rising Sun
subdivision. I convinced Tom to let
me design a house. I still have the
cardboard model house I designed."
Tom and his partner built the house
which quickly sold for more than anv
of the previous homes they had built
in the area. "Of course, I didn't get
any money for that one," said Judy.
"So for the next one I requested
$250. Peanuts, right!"
Within two years she left teaching
and was working in partnership with
Tom as half owner/designer/builder of
Handcrafted Homes. She still misses
teaching. "1 miss being able to go
home at the end of the day and not
think much more about the job until
I go to work the next morning.
But more than that 1 miss the kids
and the friendships, and the feeling
of contributing something to the
community. 1 just don't feel the same
sense of community service, except
now I'm giving Atlanta something
artistic to look at. " That's an under-
statement.
Handcrafted Homes stand out in
a crowded neighborhood. "Many
18 FALL 1985
builders repeat an architect's design
over and over, even within one
subdivision. It's easier to repeat
because you've worked out many of
the kinks," Judy said. She wants
each house to be different. Among
the work that marks a Handcrafted
Home is extensive rockwork.
Lynn Smith has been doing the
rockwork on Judy's houses for two
years. He explained that various
types of rock are ordered from a local
company. "She orders lava rock
especially because it gives a good
effect to have one in the wall every
now and then," said Lynn. "It's like
putting together a j igsaw puzzle , " he
said, carefully fitting another piece
into an outside wall of rock.
An onyx and stone bathtub, stone
floors, rock waterfalls and fireplaces
with rocks and semi-precious stones
are examples of the rockwork that
graces the insides of many of her
homes.
Other designs include a hand-
tooled copper and brass fireplace and
a stone fireplace with an inlaid
copper design. She uses stained glass,
hand-carved windows, specialty
imported woods, and hand-split
cedar shakes (for the roof finish).
"Clients usually hire me because I
do unusual and different designs
using unusual materials," explained
Judy, who has only done two "spec"
houses. "Building a 'spec' house is
more scary because you speculate
that you can sell it," said Judy. "I
prefer to work with clients where I
can be more creative in my design.
It gives me the opportunity to try
something exciting."
Judy is now sole owner, designer
and builder for Handcrafted Homes.
Though her job takes up much of her
waking hours, Judy is firm about her
priorities. "My children are most
important in my life. I make myself
set up time with them so they are
not ignored."
Her son Rand, 13, and Chelsea
both go to Westminster Schools.
Chelsea has been going to work sites
since she was two weeks old. "She
kind of grew up going to the sites,"
said Judy. When she's not at camp,
she stills goes with her mom to the
office and the building site. About
four years ago, Chelsea was going to
be a builder, then a computer pro-
grammer. Now she's going to be a
chemist. "The guys (workmen) are
real used to her. She used to take
mud (cement) and put a nail or rock
or something in it and sell it to the
guys for a penny or a nickel." Sure
enough, with her own creativity
apparent, Chelsea soon arrives with
a "spice cake" made of styrofoam and
sawdust, and what is obviously
meant to be a hot dog, complete with
ketchup created from leftover red
wiring.
"Besides my kids and work, well . . .
I love plants," said Judy, fishing for
outside interests.
'And cooking," pipes Chelsea.
"Oh yes, I designed a gourmet
cooking school once and have taken
some cooking classes. I love to cook
when I can squeeze it in."
Judy, Rand, Chels, three cats and
a kitten recently moved, from Atlanta,
to a new home/office in Roswell. "It's

more convenient to have the office
below the house and near the build-
ing sites, at least until I can build a
house on our creek lot in Boulder
Creek," added Judy. One of the cats
caused today's late arrival on the site.
"Asha is sick," she explained. "She's
been part of the family since 1 was
at Agnes Scott. I just couldn't leave
her at the vet; if something happens
she needs to be at home."
While Asha was this morning's
concern, the placement and size of
the water heaters for the house she's
currently working on in Boulder
Creek occupied much of her time
away from the site and office yester-
day. "I can't stand to go into the
kitchen and have to wait for hot
water," Judy tells the plumber,
discussing the water heaters. To me,
she adds, "I build a house as though
I were going to live in it." To the
workmen, 'And watch that crawl-

Let's assume, young lady, " Billy
Bryan Burns was saying, "that
neither one of us had the atomic
humb, and let's assume that the Rus-
sians have twice as many human beings
as we do and the Chinese have three or
four times the amount of human beings
we do. What is the deterrent to war?
How do we defend ourselves? Do we
negotiate from weakness?" He smiled
broadly, a father-knows-hest kind of
smile. "Without the bomb, I think we
ivould be in a terrible, terrible position, "
he went on. "If we can keep from
making a mistake, I think it's the
greatest thing we've ever had in the
whole world. "
"But where are we heading,
Daddy?" his little girl, Dottie,
answered. She ivas Dorothy Burns
Douglas now, 46, married and the
mother of two, but she was still his little
girl
"We're not going anywhere, Dottie,
honey, " Bill;y said. "We're going to stay
static, li(ine\, in this position of no war,
until hopefully the United States finds
some way to neutralize communism. "
110 FALL 1985
They sat over lunch at a handsome
country club in North Carolina,
talking seriously about the bomb for
practically the first time since she
was in high school. His mood had
been expansive, seating his guests at
his table. His white Eldorado was out
on the lot, and his navy blazer, his
Kelly green pants and his golf-course
tan fairly radiated money and ease.
He moved about the club with the
assurance of a man who owned the
place, as, fractionally, he did; he and
Helen Burns were building their
dream home on the grounds for his
retirement. But a summer luncheon
of fruit salad and iced coffee went
half noticed between father and
daughter in the intensity of their
family quarrel. They had become
America debating across the divide
between the generations and the
sexes, talking about how much
longer the world would sur\'ive the
bomb.
Forever was Billy Bryan Burns's
guess, when he thought about the
subject at all. Mostly, if he could
avoid it, he did not. Ho had loaded
the first primiti\e A-bombs, waved
them off for Hiroshima and Nagasaki
and thought little more about them
than that they were his ticket home.
He reckoned long afterward that he
might have gone crazy if he had seen
the mushroom clouds, but he hadn't,
and if he had had nightmares about
the war on his return, as his wife and
daughter said, he did not remember
them. Sometimes he wondered why
he didn't feel guilty about what the
bomb had done. Sometimes he
thought he should feel guilty for not
feeling guilty.
He had had other things on his
mind in the years after the war; he
had been too busy seeking his for-
tune, and to his way of thinking, the
bomb had made the world safe for
him and people like him to do so.
His generation had come back feeling
good about the country and them-
selves and had created more wealth,
raised more houses, fathered more
babies and realized the American

dream more times over than any in
our history. Billy still telt a tingle just
thinking about all the men he
knew guys he had grown up with
in South Florida who had gotten
rich after the war.
He was one of them, a millionaire
at 66. He had started with a $7,000
nest egg and a correspondence school
certificate in general insurance, and
had pyramided them into a fortune
in insurance, real estate and
mortgage lending. He had had a
sideline in elective politics as com-
missioner of the Port of Palm Beach
for 22 years and was talked about tor
governor of Florida. But turning
money into more money was his gift
and his calling. A savings and loan
association he started in West Palm
Beach with some partners was the
fastest growing in the nation when a
larger, wealthier outfit bought them
out. The millions Billy got for his
stock financed his admission to the
leisure class but did not wholly
compensate him tor the loss of his
company. He had always believed
that winning was everything, and
the buyout reconfirmed his corollary
rule that to win, you had to deal
from strength.
"May I express my concerns to you?"
Dorothy ivas saying. She and the
movement people she was working with
had studied the numbers, "And what's
overwhelming, " she said, "is that there
are 55,000 weapons. OK? We have
about 30,000. They have anywhere
from 23,000 to 28, 000, depending on
which estimate you believe. "
A window of vulnerability had
opened in her certitude, and Billy
pounced. "So we really don't know
what we got compared to what they
got, " he said.
"J think most people who are in the
Pentagon will say that we are at parity, "
Dorothy said. "But what is overwhelm-
ing is if you take the destntctive power
of all this. If you take the total air

"You're saying we're in a psychologi-
cal war is that what you're saying?"
Dorotlw pressed. "If that's true, where
do you think xce're going to be in the
year 2000?"
Dorothy Douglas worried a lot
about the year 2000. She won-
dered whether there would he
one. She and her daughter, Laurelyn,
now 17, were watching the news one
evenmg a tev\- years ago and heard
Adm. Hvman Rickover, the god-
father ot atomic submarines, guess
bleakly that there was going to be a
nuclear war someday. Laurelyn, in
her bathrobe, had looked at Dorothy
with searching hazel eyes. She wasn't
sure she wanted to grow up and ha\'e
children ot her own, she said. She
was too frightened ot the bomb.
Dorothy's commitment to the
peace movement, already begun,
deepened thereafter into a fixation;
she was fighting so hard to save the
future tor her children that, for a
time, thev felt shut out ot the present.
She had herself come of age without
thinking much about nuclear
weapons, accepting on faith her
daddy's faith, really that they were
an insurance policy against war. She
was an all-around girl in high school,
class president, prom queen and
leading lady in a school play; the age
ot anxiety tor her centered on
whether Ruddy Reynolds, better
known in later years as Burt, would
notice her on his visits with a girl he
was dating across the street. Her
social conscience deepened in her
years at Agnes Scott College in
Decatur, Ga. , studying, she thought
then, to become a doctor and witnes-
sing the flowering of the civil-rights
movement. She met Martin Luther
King Jr. and Bobby Kennedy, and,
from a girlfriend's house, watched
Bobby's brother Jack walking on the
beach in front ot his family's winter
compound; she let her schoolwork
go hang while she worked for his
election.
He nearly outli\'ed her. She fell ill
the year Kennedy won the presi-
dency; she was hoarse and tired, and
her hands turned purple as if she were
cold. The first guess was mononucle-
osis. The next, and more ominous,
was scleroderma, a mysterious and
sometimes life-threatening malady
attacking both the skin and the
internal organs. Dorothy spent much
of her senior year in the infirmary,
getting weaker, and most of the
summer afterward in the metabolic-
disease unit at the National Institutes
of Health in Bethesda, Md. Her
roommate had been a contender for
Miss America; the room was filled
with the scent ot roses left by the
young woman's suitors, and with the
possibility ot her death.
The siege was an education for
Dorothy at 21 in the coiitingencv of
life, one that did not end with her
discharge; it could not be said tor
certain then whether she had two
years left or 50, and she found herself
bargaining with God for more time.
She spent a long introspective pass-
age thereafter, a sorting-out period
iif rambling dri\'es in the country and
moments of prayer in wayside
churches. The leaves had ne\er
seemed greener to her, or the sound
ot birds more achingly beautiful.
She was only just re-entering lite,
studying microbiology at the Unix-er-
sity ot Florida, when Moscow im-
planted its missiles in Cuba and the
superpowers edged toward the brink
ot nuclear war. Dorothy trusted
Kennedy but she was frightened, and
she headed south in her black Volks-
wagen, drixnng closer to the missiles,
to be with her parents. They waited
together, and one night near the end
the three ot them drove up the coast
to a quiet place where Billy had often
taken Dorothy fishing in her girl-
hood. The sky was clear and starry.
They nosed their boat up the Inter-
coastal Waterway and out onto an
inlet; then they cut the lights,
dropped the anchor and fished in the
still waters with a radio plaving soft
music in the background. "This
could be the end," Dorothy thought.
"This could be the last music I'll e\er
hear." Billy was strong. That night,
the Russians backed off.
"/ really hope, " Billy was saying,
"and I think most people hope, that
we'll find some way to neutrali::e the
atomic weapon. That's our only hope.
We're not going to negotiate with the
Russians. It's not to their adxantage. "
"Well, why not?" Dorothy asked.
"They want to survive like we do. "
"Listen, " Billy said, "they do not put
the same price tag on life as you do or
1 do. Vou'i'e got to understand that.
Different philosophies of different
people. Life to them n\ay not be nearly
as important as it is to you. basically
because you enjoy life more. Your
stantlirJ of lamg is so much higher You
weigh that against your other advan-
tages, and they're not going to negotiate.
They aren't going to gi'ie up their
primary position, which they have. "
"What difference does it really make
how many we have and how many they
have anyway?" Dorothy asked. She
produced more arginnent.s, more num-
bers, and ivas getting nouhere. Bi//\
had begun stealing glimpses at his
u'uteh. She had sent him some papers
a couple of years before, but he hadn't
read them, preferring the harder-line
liews of his Air Force journal.
112 FALL 1985
"You have got to be in a position of
strength, " Billy continued. Dottie didn't
understand, having never run a com-
pany or met a payroll; she thought
geopolitics was like a marital problem,
something you could sit down and talk
out, when it was in fact more like
business. "If you have a million dollars
and I have a million dollars, " he said,
"neither one of us has the advantage,
but we have a chance to talk about it.
If you have 2 million and I have I
million, you are going to dominate. "
The bond between father and
daughter was strong, sometimes
almost too enfolding. Billy was
a tender and vulnerable man under
his leathery hide and did not easily
look pain in the eye; he had had a
hard time visiting Dorothy in the
hospital when it looked as if she
might be dying, and a hard time
again accepting her marriage, fearing
that he might lose her. She had met
John Douglas at Duke University,
where she was pursuing her graduate
work in neuro-anatomy, and he was
a fellow in cardiology. They dated
and, in the spring of 1967, were
married. Billy was unhappy.
Dorothy bore a daughter and a son
quickly, 13 months apart, and,
suspending her own ambitions,
settled, into the comfortable life of a
doctor's wife. She followed John's
peregrinations to teaching hospitals
m San Antonio, Little Rock, New
Zealand and finally in Johnson City,
Tenn. , where he became chief of
cardiology at East Tennessee State
University's new medical school. Her
family became her career and what
energies she had left over were de-
voted to the civic pursuits of the
upper middle class: the arts council,
the repertory theater, the Montessori
school board, the League of Women
Voters. In San Antonio, she had
worried about the SAC bombers
flying low in and out of Kelly Air
Force Base with their nukes, right
over her head; in New Zealand, she
had watched demonstrators in boats
splash a Poseidon submarine with
yellow paint and had mainly felt
sorry for the sailors. But she did not
engage with the subject until the
night her friend Betty Bumpers
called from Washington and asked,
"Dorothy, how do you feel about
nuclear war?"
The two of them had met during
Dorothy's years in Little Rock, when
Betty's husband. Dale, was governor
of Arkansas. Their common interest
then lay in programs promoting the
arts, the sort of good work thought
more suitable to First Ladies and to
doctors' wives than worrying about
the bomb. But Betty was worrying
about it and was organizing a new
group called Peace Links to educate
people to prevent nuclear war a
women's group, because women were
less wedded than men to violence.
Dorothy was drawn along by Betty's
passion, and the night her own
Laurelyn talked about not wanting
to bring children in to a world
afflicted with the bomb, her conver-
sion to the cause became total so
total that it crowded practically
everything else out of her life.
Her first reaction was to read
everything, on all sides of the subject,
as if it were her doctorate she was
working on and not the future of the
world. She guessed later that her
research had been a way to avoid
doing anything, a last vestige of a
lifetime of denial that anything was
fundamentally wrong. The house
was littered with her books,
magazines and learned journals, and
the TV stayed tuned to cable news
deep into the night; every crisis
seemed to her seeded with the poten-
tial for nuclear war. At a second
stage, knowledge led to despair, at
the sheer scale of the problem and at
the difficulty of getting anyone in
Johnson City beyond the hounds of
the university campus to take her
seriously. She worked the phone for
hours, and even when the answers
were friendly, a sense of futility
sometimes came over her. This is
impossible, she thought more than
once; she was a Tennessee housewife
mixing in the business of superpower
politics, talking to other housewives
about MlRV's and Tridents and the
cosmic questions of war and peace.
For a passage of six months or so,
her household suffered from her work
and her moods. "Mom, we wish you
wouldn't do this," her son, Glenn,
now 16, told her once; until she
explained that she was doing it all
for them, he and Laurelyn were
jealous of the movement and dis-
turbed at being asked at school if
their mom was a communist. Her
marriage was tested as well. The
phone bills were running to $300 a
month, and the table talk had to do
with the folly of mutual assured
destruction, illustrated with charts of
projected deaths in an exchange of
nuclear weapons. John's appetite for
the subject was limited, after a hard
day on the cardiology service, and
their life was punctuated by the
sound of slamming doors. "You're
obsessed with this!" he shouted,
fleeing the house. "I can't stand it!"
But he found his own way into the
movement, listening to one of its
spokespersons. Dr. Helen Caldicott,
over the car radio one day; she
seemed to be speaking to him, doctor
to doctor, and when he got home,
he asked Dorothy, "What should I
do?" In three months he had
launched his own vehicle, a chapter
of Physicians tor Social Responsibil-
ity, and was talking throw weights
and kill ratios with his wife. Johnson
City remained unfertile territory,
"the buckle of the Bible belt," the
managing editor of the local paper
called it; its politics wasarc/i-archcon-
servative, and Dorothy achieved a
certain notoriety in some parts of
town as "that peacenik liberal. " But
she went doggedly on with her
presentations, perhaps 200 of them,
to Kiwanises and Junior Leagues and
garden clubs anyone willing to

On Her Terms
by Faye Goolnck
At 16, Jean Hoeter Toal '65,
daughter of a politically
active South Carolina family,
sat on the platform with John F.
Kennedy as he gave a campaign
address on the Colimihia State
House grounds. When his opponent,
Richard M. Nixon, came to town
shortly thereafter, the young Jean
again had a hird's-eye view this
time from the limbs of a nearby tree.
That Jean Hoefer Toal was inter-
ested in politics from tree-climbing
age should come as no surprise. At
42, she is a well-established Colum-
bia lawyer and unquestionably one ot
the most influential state representa-
tives in the South Carolina General
Assembly (D-Richland). And like
many women ot her generation, a
litany ot "firsts" seems to have accom-
panied her every move: first woman
in South Carolina history to chair a
standing committee of the House
(the House Rules Committee), first
woman to serve on the House
Judiciary Committee, first woman
partner in her law firm. She is con-
sidered a likely candidate to become
the first woman judge on the South
Carolina Supreme Court. In the next
tew months, her successful career as
a trial lawyer will reach a new mile-
stone as she argues her first case
before the U.S. Supreme Court.
Yet Toal, a small, open-coun-
tenanced woman who radiates self-
confidence and energy, takes all the
accolades in stride. Tilking earnestly
in her law office on Columbia's Lady
Street, only a short walk from the
Capitol dome, she neither denies nor
demurs when asked about her ac-
complishments. Instead, she offers
a straightforward assessment ot who
she is and why she does what she
does.
"1 find that for a lot of women, the
only real barriers to doing what I'm
doing or [to being] whatever it is
they want to be are their own atti-
tudes about whether they can do it,"
she says, speaking in a husky, distinc-
tively Southern accent. "There isn't
any question that there are still
barriers to the entry ot women in all
professions, barriers that are not ot
women's making. But there are equal
barriers that are ot women's making,
that have to do with their own levels
of expectations about themselves."
Ob\-iously, Toal's expectations ot
herself are high indeed. At Agnes
Scott, she majored in philosophy.
honed her skills on the College
debate team, and increasingly found
herself drawn to the pressing issue of
the day, racial integration. "This was
a very political time tor young
people, " she recalls. "There was the
election, with Lyndon Johnson
versus Barry Goldwater. And there
was the beginning of exchange
programs with Spelman [and other
black colleges] through a U.S. Na-
tional Students Association program
called 'the Southern Project.'" Toal
participated in this summer study
group in 1964, with her parents'
reluctant permission. Looking back,
she characterizes her ci\il rights
activism as "not nearly as dramatic
as some students'. But tor a Southern
child, it was a very heavy invoK'e-
ment," she adds. "I was meeting with
black people and gomg to interracial
meetings, participating in voter
registration, and atone time, picket-
ing. It was pretty hold stuft tor a
Southern person."
Though T^al remains an active
alumna and tirm supporter ot the
College, she is quick to point out
that in the mid '60s, expectations tor
women students were much different
from those tor men. Ambitious
career guidance, tor example, was
one shortcoming in an Agnes Scott

Social Circle), and is a 1*^73 graduate of
Hollins College. Her full time is taken

education. "When I graduated from
Scott with a history ot interest in
politics and involvement in it, there
was no real guidance or direction at
school about the law as a career," she
says. While enrolled in Agnes Scott,
she took a course in constitutional
law at Emory; when she decided to
take the LSAT (the law school
admittance test), she obtained her
information and enrollment forms
from Emory because she couldn't
locate the necessary materials at her
own college.
In law school at the University of
South Carolina a year later, Toal
found herself one of four women in
a class of 130. When she began
practicing law in 1968, there were
only about 40 women attorneys in
the state of South Carolina. "Of that
number, 10 were no longer in active
practice, and only two had ever tried
a jury case," she says.
Law school brought other rewards
as well. Not only did Toal earn grades
high enough to position her as an
editor of the school's law review, but
she also established a strong and
enduring "support group" of law
school friends all men that in-
cluded her future husband, fellow
student (and law review editor)
William T. Toal. The couple married
in 1967. After law school and two
years of working in Greenville,
S.C., Jean with a large law firm
and Bill as a law clerk for a U.S.
Court of Appeals judge the Toals
returned to their native Columbia.
Within a few years, both Toals were
partners in Columbia law firms: Bill
with Johnson, Toal & Battiste, and
Jean with Belser, Baker, Barwick,
Ravenel, Toal & Bender.
In 1974, Jean Tsal's strong pre-
dilection toward politics took a
concrete form: she decided to run on
the Democratic ticket for state repre-
sentative. Her opponent, the incum-
bent Republican, was her old junior
high school principal and civics
teacher. Running and winning
was an exhilarating, terrifying event.
"For women in particular, and par-
ticularly the first time you run, you're
almost taking your heart in your
hands," she says. "It's a real bold
step. I don't care if you do have the
kind of political support group 1
had that first decision to put
yourself on the line, throw your name
in the ring, is a mighty hard decision
for most women to make." With a
daughter, Jean, then 3, and a career
as a trial lawyer, Tjal seemingly faced
unusual hardship in making the
commitment.
From that first race onward, how-
ever, Jean Toal's political savvy has
become more and more apparent
and more formidable. Possessed of a
sharp legal mind and a brash, tena-
cious talent for negotiation two
characteristics recognized by her
admirers and opponents alike Toal
has taken on such legislative tasks as
pushing for a merit-based Public
Service Commission and changing
the parliamentary rules of the Gen-
eral Assembly to restrict prolonged
debate on the House and Senate
floors.
She has not, she points out,
concentrated on or limited herself to
what are usually perceived as
women's issues, even though, as an
Equal Rights Amendment supporter,
she served as floor leader for the ERA
when it was brought to the vote in
South Carolina. (It was unsuccess-
ful. ) And in what seems a contradic-
tion to some South Carolina femi-
nists, she has repeatedly introduced
resolutions urging South Carolina to
support a "human life" anti-
abortion amendment to the U.S.
Constitution. She is a devout
Catholic.
The daughter of an Irish Catholic
mother and a German Catholic
father, Toal clearly relishes the more
expansive, ebullient side of the
stereotypical Irish temperament. She
can hold her own in the saltiest of
conversations, hobnob convivially
with her legislative cronies over
drinks at a local bar, and generally
make her wishes known in no uncer-
tain terms. In the political sphere,
these attributes, though occasionally
aggravating to those who disagree
with her, have earned her a stature
few women ever attain. In a world
peopled with "good ol' boys," she is
not only respected; she is obviously
well-liked.
These days, T:)al has her mind on
more than legislative issues. The
legislature, in session from early
January to mid-June, is over for this
year, and more imminent problems
loom. The U.S. Supreme Court, for
example. As counsel for the Catawba
Indian tribe of South Carolina, Toal
argued successfully before the U.S.
Court of Appeals that the Indians
have a valid claim to some 144,000
acres of land in and around Rock
Hill, S.C. The state, not surpris-
ingly, appealed so vast and far-
reaching a claim. "We're talking
about probably two billion dollars'
worth of property!" says Toal. The
third-largest Eastern Indian claim in
the nation, the case should go before
the Supreme Court in late 1985 or
early 1986.
For Toal, displaying her litigator's
skills before the highest court in the
land is merely one more notch in an
already distinguished career. Now
the mother of two Lilla, 4, was a
"joyful surprise" in her mother's 37th
year Tbal recognizes that she is one
of the lucky few who may well "have
it all." Characteristically, she is frank
about pulling it off. She has a full-

ter, Jean, is 13 now and more inde-

"Sometimes I manage it well, and
sometimes I don't. No one always
manages everything just as she wants
to. But anybody who does a lot of
things, male or female, would say
what I say: You have to have a very,
very supportive family and a suppor-
tive group of friends. " Fortunately for
Toal and the South Carolina voters
who re-elect her term after term, she
has both. D

NMAN HALL
Jennie D. Inman Hall once more welcomes students withi
Victorian elegance and charm. Decorators inventoried

treasures for Inman's renovation.

Traditional elegance and modern,
practical innovation. The un-
likely pair has come together
brilliantly on the Agnes Scott cam-
pus with the renovation of Jennie D.
Inman Hall. Formally unveiled to
the College community and Alum-
nae Leadership Conference m a
Sept. 20 open house, Inman Hall
was completed Sept. 6 and is home
to 89 students this year.
And a grand home it is.
Working from the outside-in,
architects and interior design special-
ists have maintained Inman's turn-
of-the-centur>' grace and beauty,
while bringing the building com-
pletely in line with the most modern
of standards.
Built in 1910 at a cost of $50,000
and dedicated in 1911, Jennie D.
Inman Hall was considered a gitt to
the College from Samuel Martin
Inman, chairman of the Board of
Trustees from 1903-1914, and was
named in memory of his first wife.
Natural wood wainscoting, com-
plemented by wallcoverings in muted
shades of rose, mauve, terra-cotta
and green add interest to the 19-foot-
high walls in the main lobby.
Wallcoverings on each floor have
different patterns variations on
the same classic color schemes.
Period furniture has been refur-
bished, artwork has been reframed
and "new" period furnishings, light
fixtures and other accents have been
purchased or acquired through dona-
tions to complete the overall effect.
Custom-designed area rugs on the
hardwood floors pull the look
together.
Henry Jova, founding partner of
Jova/Daniels/Busby Architects,
which handled the interior aspects
of the restoration project, notes that
the end result is elegant and formal,
yet colorful, cheerful and comfort-
able. "Walking into the lobby," Jova
says, "you get the feeling that you
might be walking into the living
room of someone's aunt."
Built-in lofts in the first-floor
rooms allow residents to separate
living space from sleeping space,
creating a more home-like atmos-
phere. Windows are fitted with
Levolor blinds. Kitchens on each
floor have been renovated as well,
and feature modern appliances and
fixtures.
The attic atop the three-story
building, formerly used for storage,
has been converted to a study area
for residents, with 34 individual
carrels.
The $1.6 million project, begun
in fall 1984, was the first part of an
$18.75-million master renovation
plan for the College, scheduled to be
completed by fall 1989, the College's
centennial year. Other projects
already completed include the crea-
tion of a terrace dining facility on
18 FALL 1985
the lower level of the dining hall,
and the relocation ot the campus
store and post office facility, with a
newly built sunken plaza pedestrian
entranceway and an elevator and
underground tunnel service en-
tranceway. The master plan calls for
the renovation of Agnes Scott
(Main) Hall and Rehekah Hall, the
addition of an athletic track and field
and construction of a new student
activity center, which will be the
largest building on campus. A new
energy management system will
provide state-of-the-art energy effi-
ciency, and substantial site work and
landscaping will provide the finish-
ing touches. Several of these projects
are already in progress. The renova-
tions are being funded by bonds
issued last January.
Notes Vice President of Business
Affairs Gerald O. Whittington, "We
were trying to preserve Inman's
Victorian elegance while making the
building as inhabitable and as safe as
modern standards could allow." The
project was unquestionably success-
ful. "There is no residence hall in
the country like it," concludes
Whittington. "We're very proud
of Inman."
Agnes Scott held a formal rededi-
cation ceremony for Jennie D. Inman
Hall, Oct. II, 1985, at 2:30 p.m.

give her and her comrades against
arms the time of day. She carried
charts and films with her, and, as
audio-visual aids, a metal bucket and
6,000 BB's; she would hold the
bucket up to the microphone and
drop the BB's into it, one by one,
making her point about the destruc-
tive force of the world's nuclear
arsenal adding up to 6,000 World
War lis. The U'chunk-k' chunk, greatly
amplified, was maddening and was
meant to be. "Stop it, that's enough!"
a women cried at one performance.
That was precisely Dorothy's
message.
She sustained herself with the
feeling, or the wish, that the move-
ment was growing that it would
number in the millions some not too
distant day, enough to move moun-
tains or even governments. But her
own daddy remained beyond the
reach of her persuasive powers. She
brought a second packet of papers to
their luncheon at his club, hoping
he would read them and unsurprised
to hear afterward that he had not;
he confessed the next time they met
that he had been playing golf instead.
She didn't have the heart to push
him. He was a compassionate man,
she knew that; he had even quit
fishing because he couldn't stand
killing fish. But she suspected that
it was painful for him to look too
hard at the subject of the bomb, and
something protective in her held her
back; she could not bear to cause her
daddy pain.
"Du you really think we can win if
re s a niic
lear
war
?"
"If you want to play the game, " Billy
was saying, "you've got to have the
marbles. If you don t have the marbles,
you can't play. They've got marbles and
we've got marbles. No one knoivs who's
got the most marbles. "
"Say we're about eqiuil, " Dorothy
said, trying again.
"Let me say this, " Billy said, glancing
at his watch again. "When the stakes
are so high, you don't guess, because
the risk is too high. "
"No, 1 don't believe anybody can
win, Dottie, honey, but there are people
in the Pentagon working to prevent that
from happening. I just don't think you
can take the risk of believing that we
are too strong. "
"But you can take the risk of nuclear
war?" Dorothy said.
They were getting nowhere, two
people armored in certainty and
restrained by love. Billy Burns was
Dorothy's Rosetta stone, his resis-
tance a code to be cracked; if she
could reach him, she would have
mastered the language of a genera-
tionthe generation that had
brought the bomb into the world 40
years ago. But she could not bring
herself to press too hard, and he
could not be moved. He liked her
fighting spirit, the kind of attitude,
he thought, that makes millionaires;
he wished in hindsight that she had
come into the family business. Dottie
was an idealist, he thought, and he
was a realist; she saw the bomb as
destructive of life, where he saw it as
saving lives.
Their conversation was moving in
circles when they finally suspended
it. Dorothy forced her papers on
Billy; he dutifully carried them out
to his Eldorado and waved goodbye.
"Dottie, 1 don't want you to change
my mind," he told her. His case for
the defense rested on the historic fact
that the planet had survived the first
40 years of the atomic age. But
certainty had died as a condition of
existence at Hiroshima at 8:15 on
the morning of Aug. 6, 1945, a
casualty of the first nuclear weapon;
it became the lot of humankind to
live, permanently and dangerously,
with the bomb. D

everything from peace and education
to "What if Women Ruled the
World.'"
At the torum, Agnes Scott assis-
tant professor of Bible and religion
Deirdre Good, represented the
Southeast Region of the Episcopal
Church, and at the UN Conference,
Agnes Scott RTC student Patty
Clarke represented l.A.R.F. , the
only interfaith organization to hold
consultative status in the U.N. For
Good, the trip was a return to the
country of her birth and childhood.
Her parents served as missionaries in
Kenya.
At the UN Conference, Good and
Clarke caucused government dele-
gates concerning the forward-looking
strategies, the primary document of
the conference. The strategies recom-
mend indix'idual and government
action through the year 2000 to
improve the lives of women
worldwide.
By adopting the document, the
delegates of 157 governments called
for
n affirmative action to include
women in policy and decision
making;
n women to have access to com-
munications media and to new
technologies;
D research to take into account the
status of wcimen;
CH women's unpaid work to be in-
eluded in their nation's economic
statistics;
n households headed by single
women to he recognized and aided;
D violence against women to be
named and curbed;
D family planning information to he
made available to all women.
Stalled by tedious speeches and
political debate over naming Zionism
and apartheid as obstacles to women's
progress, the document seemed
doomed to the fate of similar failed
efforts at UN conferences on women's
issues in Mexico City in 1975 and
Copenhagen in 1980. However,
while media covered the debate, the
women of Kenya were talking with
representatives of dissenting nations
quietly, persistently, graciously and
effectively. References to Zionism
were dropped, and the conference
adopted the document by consensus
at 4:40 a.m. on the final day.
Time and printing problems forced
the resolutions to go to the UN
General Assembly, which discussed
and ratified them along with the
strategies document at its regular
meeting in September.
The diplomatic success demon-
strates women's negotiating powers
and their willingness to work to-
gether to achieve the decade's goals,
Clarke explains. The strategies
themselves are important for recog-
nizing the progress of women over the
decade, naming remaining obstacles
and prescribing solutions.
The strategies are also a key "bar-
gaining chip" for the United Nations
with its member nations, Clarke
says. Although developed countries
may ignore the demands of the
nations represented at the confer-
ence, "developing countries are often
more apt to want to be aligned with
the U. N . , " Clarke explains. The UN
Commission on the Status of Women
will monitor adherence to the
recommendations .
"But I wouldn't wait around for the
U.N. to enforce itself," says Good.

"That would be totally frustrating."
For women of the United States, she
says, the document is a guide to local
action as well.
"One should use it to pressure
local governments for representation
of women," Good begins. "Also,
what are we doing to educate chil-
dren about some of the issues ad-
dressed there?
"Or literacy projects," she adds.
"You don't have to go to my church
in south Decatur to see the need for
literacy projects. That is exactly
what the educational parts of the
forward-looking strategies suggest."
Good also recommends that cur-
ricula for the elementary through
college ages be "revamped to include
the realities of all women."
Clarke suggests taking seriously
the resources Atlanta has in women
from other countries who are study-
ing here. By spending time with such
women and asking for their input,
local women could "nurture the
diversity of our city" and absorb an
international viewpoint without
leaving home.
"We must encourage international
experiences so we can get over our
need tor the security of our own ideas
and ways of life." Such an interna-
tional perspective is necessary for
handling the world's problems, she
says.
For her part. Good helps plan the
Global Studies Program at Agnes
Scott, designed to offer each student
an experience beyond her own cul-
ture during her college career.
The church needs a similar toler-
ance for diversity. Good continues.
"The time has gone when we could
say, 'It's important to me that you're
a Southern Baptist and I'm an Epis-
copalian. That separates us. ' Now is
the time to say, 'There are some
priorities that necessitate not em-
phasizing our differences: human

dignity, human worth, social justice,
equality, preservation of human
rights, peace.' Those are far more
important than what happens to
bread at communion."
They both recalled the atmosphere
at the forum was very, very high
energy. "Incredible energy," Good
says. "Very exciting, very dynamic.
Totally exhausting, but very
invigorating.
"One would be walking down the
street with all these internationally
famous people, and then one would
see a group of Nairobi male students
who had come just to see what these
women were doing," she laughs.
"And then one would see tribes-
women in their traditional costumes,
bringing their kids along, selling
some of the stuff they make in their
villages. It was incredible diversity."
"Overall, it didn't matter who one
was, what one was, where one came
from," Clarke interjects. "She was of
interest. She was welcome."
During the last decade
women's life expectancy,
education and literacy
have increased worldwide.
At the torum, Clarke convened a
panel of health care officials from
several nations. In the informal
discussion afterward, several Kenyans
shared their triumphs in health care
in recent years. "One South African
woman said, 'I am excited to hear
about what you Kenyans are doing in
health care, but I want you to know
that it makes me sad that my sisters
are being sterilized against their
will.' And she began to name the
atrocities."
Clarke says, "I could teel with this
South African woman articulate,
bright, compassionate. How she
even got in (to Kenya) I don't know,
because she wouldn't have been
allowed a passport. She was probably
smuggled in."
A woman pediatrician told Clarke
Just what we don't need:
A Women's Auxiliary to the U.N.
Would you ever, in your wildest fan-
tasies, expect to hear about a World
Conference for Men, or a United
Nations' Decade for Men?
Of course not. That would he
absurd. There are more than 2 billion
male people in the world. They live all
over the globe, in every imaginable
economic, social and political situa-
tion, varying not only from country to
country but within each country.
A World Conference for Women and
a U.N. Decade tor Women are equally
absurd. There are more than 2 billion
female people in the world. We too live
all over the globe, in every imaginable
economic, social and political situa-
tion, varying not only from country to
country but within each country.
We are no more like each other than
men are like each other. That is what
the w'omen's movement has been all
about, that women he recognized and
treated as individual persons, not
lumped together in any phony network
of sisterhood that is supposed to some-
how transcend national boundaries,
economic classes and cultural
differences.
Even within a nation, we are not the
same. In our nation, for example, we
speak of "the women's vote," and yet
our last national election proved that
women are not a monolithic group,
with special problems of no concern to
men, to be dealt with in any one
gathering claiming to represent
women.
When men gather for international
conferences, they identify substanti\'e
issues for consideration. Each repre-
sents the national interests of his own
country, including the women of that
country. The men are not expected to
subordinate national interests and
responsibilities to personal concerns.
As delegates of their nations, they are
expected to operate within the context
of national sovereignty and national
policies.
The U. N . Women's Conference j ust
held in Naitobi was, in fact, a confer-
ence not of women but of governments.
The women and one man who rep-
resented the United States, like other
national delegates, operated within the
domestic and foreign policies of this
nation. Why should we be surprised
that the same differences that routinely
surface at other international gather-
ings surfaced there?
There are no "women's issues" that
are not also "men's issues" and vice
versa. Peace, pure drinking water,
health, economic development
where could you possibly draw the line
between what concetns women and
what concerns men?
Furthermore, it doesn't make sense
for women who claim to be powerless
to attempt to deal with world problems
for which there are already specialized
U.N. and other international agencies.
If the 15,000 to 1Q,QQ0 women who
traveled to Kenya to attend the official
conference or the unofficial meeting
were to divide up themselves and their
money on monitoring the specialized
agencies, they might develop some
power.
We must recognize that we cannot
eliminate sexism by institutionalizing
it. And we cannot bring peace and
prosperity to women w-ithout bringing
peace and prosperity to men.
Please no more Women's Confer-
ences. We do not need a Women's
Auxiliary to the United Nations.

later that throughout her schooling
and career, "she was too afraid to
even speak on behalf of her patients
if a senior colleague was misdiagnos-
ing or treating that person poorly.
Here she sees women who live in a
martial state decide they are going
to do something, even if it means
their death. And they're doing it.
They even came to Kenya to tell
people what they're doing.
"She was so impressed hy the
courage of these feisty, brilliant,
everyday women that she decided it
was time to be one of them. " Clarke
concurs for herself: "It's time to be
outrageous.
"The pictures in my mind are of
women in a variety of native dress
just being themselves as different
as those selves are. Stating first-hand
their experience. No expectations
that I could fix it. No fury at me as
though 1 caused it. Just 'this is what's
happened to me.'
"I met women without an expen-
sive, fancy library, who had built
educational tools that were wholis-
tic," Clarke says, her pleasure and
emotion evident. "In health care
women have learned how to heal
without sophisticated, miraculous
tools. Out of a mud dump a woman
would emerge every day looking very
attractive, being very loving, quite
at peace, ready to give to a lot of
new people, and then to go back to
her village.
"I also saw women from developed
nations using their power and priv-
ilege in moving ways to struggle with
their humanity and the humanity of
their sisters."
But not every experience was as
empowering. The day they arrived
Good and Clarke were asked to leave
a meeting organized by Atlanta
women and Washington, D.C. for
black women only. Clarke says, "It
was painful to have women of my
own region acting racist against me,
but the maturity of the African black
women, who were so apologetic and
so shocked by this kind of racism,
was healing."
"Last year I wouldn't have told you
that I was hurt by some things at the
conference," Good says. "I'm very
English, and English people are sort
of polite and take care of other
people's feelings. I would have con-
sidered it my personal, private grief.
'The future gets done
by individual people
committing their
professional and personal
lives to the work.'
"But now I think it's important to
say that I will not tolerate that
behavior. If people want to be racist,
then maybe we can't work together.
There's a lot of pain, but I'm not
afraid to say that anymore."
Women all over the world are
asserting themselves in new ways,
speaking in their own behalf, Good
and Clarke emphasize. Women in
less developed countries are going
beyond an intellectual, theoretical
feminism for something much more
practical: survival.
"These women are saying, 'The
world of madness, which has been
run by men, for men, about men, has
touched the very essence of our
survival,'" Clarke says, "and survival
has always been under women's
domain. They are standing up to say,
'You can't do it without a fight. We're
going to get our water. We're going
to grow our fruit and raise our chil-
dren with our husbands. We're going
to be recognized in the political
forces of our tribe or our country. We
will stand together.' Congress can't
stop it. Lack of funds can't stop it."
Some have called it an interna-
tional women's movement. Others
call it meaningless rhetoric. But
Good and Clarke doubt that it is
coincidence that women's lives have
improved during the UN Decade for
Women.
Life expectancy, education and
literacy have increased worldwide.
Women in most countries except
the United States and most Muslim
nations are achieving more equal-
ity with men, legally and constitu-
tionally, they point out.
Eighty nations have ratified the
UN Convention on the Elimination
of All Forms of Discrimination
Against Women, a document that
urges countries to implement equal
political, social and economic rights
for women. Ninety countries now
have equal-pay laws, up from 28
since 1978. Research on women has
burgeoned.
If progress continues, Clarke
believes, Roman Catholic sisters and
women of developing nations will
lead it.
"There is an impetus tor healthy
change because of the support system
of the church," Clarke says. "Now
it's the church's responsibility to
apply the fundamental principles of
equality, development and peace in
the local church areas. You can't
worry about South African women if
you live in Atlanta and don't worry
about the poor black woman across
the street."
Good says religion was pervasive
at the forum.
The All African Conference of
Churches, an interdenominational
Christian group, started Karibu, a
place set aside at a local church for
women of various religious traditions
to gather and share. Karibu means
welcome in Swahili, Kenya's
language.
Also, the Anglican Church spon-
sored an African night, serving
dinners of meat and fruit to several
thousand people in the cathedral
while choirs from all over Africa
performed.
Now the task is to make it happen,
both women point out. "I want also
to be involved in strategizing with
Atlanta women who have been to
the conference and with other
women leaders in the church commu-

The Celestial
Streaker
Comets may give us clues to the beginnings
of the solor system some 4.5 billion yeors ago,
124 FALL 1985
Comets those mysterious
white streaks of spectacle
have long been credited
with influencing fates, fortunes, and
famines. But not until the late 17th
century, however, when a British
astronomer and mathematician
studied reported comet sightings
from 1531, 1607, and 1682, were
connections between them scientifi-
cally considered. Based on his work,
the astronomer predicted the year
and the course of one comet's re-
turnbut he died too soon to see
his theory proven correct near Christ-
mas 1758.**
The astronomer was Edmund
Halley, and Halley's comet the
first comet whose return was accu-
rately predicted has become
perhaps the world's most observed,
examined, photographed, plotted,
and scrutinized astronomical event.
When Halley's makes its 30th re-
corded pass around the sun this
winter, says Dr. Malcolm B. Niedner,
an astrophysicist at NASA's Goddard
Space Flight Center, "We will see
the most intensive assault on a comet
in history."
Niedner, married to Dianne Gers-
tle Niedner '72, is intensely involved
in all three of NASA's comet-study
projects over the next year. Besides
his professional interest, he has a
personal stake as well: his doctoral
thesis, on why comets grow and drop
several plasma tails within each
orbit, will be tested as part of the
NASA observations.
What is this celestial enigma,
arousing such worldwide fascination?
Actually, relatively little is known
about what comets are or where they
come from. The vaporization part of
a comet's orbit, when it is nearest to
the sun and easiest to observe, lasts
only a few months, leaving little time
for extensive study. Also, many
comets are small and can be seen
only with a telescope, and most have
such large orbital cycles that their
appearances cannot be anticipated.
To date there are about 650 comets
scientifically recorded, many with
only one verified sighting.*
Niedner describes a comet's core
as a "dirty iceball"; it is thought to
be composed mainly of water plus
carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide,
ammonia, methane, and perhaps
other trace species. Dust grains and
rocky material may make up between
one-quarter and one-half of its
mass. * The largest comet on record
had a nucleus 70 kilometers (42
miles) in diameter; the smallest so
far detected is one-half kilometer
(one-third mile) wide.*
One predominant theory says
leftovers from the cloud of dust, gases
and other material which first formed
our solar system eventually drifted
into orbit, mostly as the Oort cloud
at the edge of the solar system,
containing hundreds of millions of
comet nuclei.* These nuclei get
kicked into eliptical orbits when a
passing star gives them a whopping
gravitational tug.
When an orbiting comet nucleus
comes within three to five astronom-
ical units ot the sun (one a. u. is the
distance from the earth to the sun;
three a.u.'s would put it between
Mars and Jupiter), sunlight "cooks"
it. The ice becomes vapor, and both
gas and dust particles are released to
form the coma, which emits the tails.
The dust tail grows as the nucleus
approaches the sun, fanning away
from sunlight in a broad yellow haze.
At the same time, sunlight ionizes
gases and the free ions also trail the
comet. This second tail looks narrow,
straight, and blue from light given
off by the positively charged ions.
When the comet meets the solar
wind gusts of protons and electrons
just beyond the sun's surface, which
may be 1 to 2 million degrees Fahren-
heita comet loses and regains its
tail every week or two as the nucleus
moves through magnetic fields of
alternating polarity, according to
Niedner.
Exploring the details of this proc-
ess is one of NASA's priorities in this
comet-watching season. And there
is ample opportunity. Besides
Halley's long-anticipated return,
another comet, named Giacobini-
Zinner, is on hand and NASA is
focusing considerable attention on
it. When the International Cometar^'
Explorer spacecraft crossed Giaco-
bini-Zinner's path on Sept. 11, the
United States became the first nation
to send a mission to any comet.
Besides collecting data on the
comet's composition, the mission has
added to astronomical knowledge in
two other ways. After its 1978 launch-
ing as International Sun-Earth
On Halley's pass this year
we'll see the most
intensive assault on
a comet in history.
Explorer 3, it first monitored the
solar wind, then was adapted to
study the earth's own magnetic tail.
The three-in-one mission produced
"a lot of bang for the dollar," Niedner
says, and was "a ver\' effective use of
funds."
It was funding that kept the
United States from joining Japanese,
Soviet and European scientists to
send a spacecraft to meet Halley's as
well. The flinding crisis of the late
1970s led to calls for restraint in
government spending, and a pro-
posed Halley's mission was grounded.

fe
Atlanta-area folks who aren't
planning an ocean cruise in the
southern hemisphere during the
peak viewing days ot Halley's
comet: don't despair. A short car
ride to the country anywhere
away from city lights will give you
a look at the once-in-a-lifetime-for-
most-of'us event. But he prepared
to wake up early or to turn in very
late, because at the comet's peak
this spring the best viewing will be
at about 5 a.m.
According to Agnes Scott's
Alberto Sadun, assistant professor
of astronomy and director of the
Bradley Observatory, Halley's
comet will become barely visible to
the naked eye in ideal (very dark)
conditions in December. The view-
will be best around midnight. As
the comet moves toward its late
March, early April peak, it ap-
proaches the sun, and the best
\'iewing times will get later.
At its peak, how large will the
comet seem from earth? Well, hold
your hand at arm's length in front
of you, with fingers and thumb
side-by-side. The comet and its tail
will appear to be about the width
of your hand from thumb to
"pinky." Binoculars will not be
necessary to see the silver-white
ball with a fuzzy tail that will be
Halley's comet, but they will much
improve the view, Sadun says.
"Comets are a lot like hurricanes
in terms of predictability," Sadun
explains. "We have to rely on some
very crude predictions about the
comet in terms of its brightness.
Unfortunately," he adds, "there
will be a full moon when Halley's
comet is at its best; that will affect
the view to a great extent."
An open house for the public and
College community is held at the
Bradley Observatory' the first Friday
of each month at 8 p.m., with
lectures, planetarium shows and,
on clear nights, telescope viewings.
This year the observatory programs
will em.phasize Halley's comet and
feature a "comet update" each
month. Public viewings are tenta-
tively scheduled after the plan-
etarium shows, but depend on
weather conditions.
Julius Staal, director of the
College planetarium, recommends
the booklet, Mr. Halley's Comet:
Everyone's Complete Guide To Seeing
the Celestial Event, for people who
would like more information in
lay terms. Published by Sky and
Telescope magazine, the booklet
offers guidance in locating, viewing
and even photographing Halley's
comet. For a copy, send a check for
$2.50 toJ.D.W. Staal, Bradley
Observatory, Agnes Scott College,
Decatur, GA 30030.
Anita Kern '74, astronomer and
physicist with DeKalb County's
Fernbank Science Center, notes
that the Fernbank observatory-
hours will be extended this year to
allow the community to see the
comet by telescope. Fernbank's
telescope is the largest in the
United States that is open to the
public on a weekly basis.
A planetarium show "The Return
of Halley's Comet" w-ill run through
Nov. 27 and again from Jan. 7,
1986, through April 20, 1986.
Special lectures will address such
topics as locating Halley's comet,
and "Was Halley's comet the Star
mt
of Bethlehem?" Bradley Observa-
tory, at Agnes Scott, will also
sponsor a December open house
with a "Christmas Show" among
others.
An exhibit of works by Jerr\-
Armstrong, local artist and amateur
astronomer, will be featured at
Fernbank through December. An
informative and fun hands-on
computer exhibit will answer ques-
tions about the comet and other
celestial subjects.
Ms. Kern, who teaches advanced
instructional courses and is a direc-
tor of a research project seminar for
high school students, says she's
excited about the return of Halley's
comet, and she's likely to spend a
lot of early-morning hours at the
observatory. "Fernbank is trying to
provide ample opportunities for the
public to learn about and appreciate
Halley's comet," she said. 'After
all, it only comes around every 76
years not many people get a
chance to see it twice."
But Agnes Scott has at least one
youngster who saw Halley's last
orbital cycle in May 1910. Caroline
"Callie" McKinney Clarke '27
recalls at 5 years old, "My father
taking me up out of the bed and
going deep into the hack yard to
see the comet. Oh, it was exciting,
though I believe 1 was more excited
about being out so late than about
seeing Halley."

But Niedner, a consultant to the
project, is pleased now that the
Giacohini'Zinner study will provide
a useful comparison with findings by
other missions to Halley's in March.
"Isn't that better than sending all
that spacecraft to one comet?"
Despite its absence from the
expedition to Halley's, NASA is
strongly involved in studying the
comet in other ways. For one week
in March, as the orbit is intercepted
by the international teams, a space
shuttle project named Astro- 1 will
observe from afar. This separate
mission complements ground-based
study, says Niedner, since Astro- I's
three telescopes operate in the
ultraviolet portion of the light spec-
trum, and on Earth ultraviolet waves
are absorbed by the atmosphere.
Niedner sees this project as
another example of efficient use of
government-funded equipment. As
chair of the Astro Halley Science
Team, he and 10 other cometary
scientists determined how best to
employ the three telescopes, which
were designed for other uses than
comet-watching. Astro- 1 will orbit
the earth every 90 minutes, and on
at least every fourth orbit will observe
and photograph the comet. The
team is advising the project and will
help analyze and publish its results.
Scientists believe all the attention
paid to comets will provide clues to
the beginnings of the solar system
about 4-5 billion years ago. "The
nucleus probably contains very primi-
tive material, "Niedner explains. "If
that material is far from the sun, it
stays cold and unprocessed pre-
served by a deep freeze."
Even when the nucleus encounters
sunlight and the solar wind, not
enough melting occurs to destroy it:
the active period within about three
astronomical units of the sun is a
small portion of even Halley's orbit,
35 a.u. at its farthest point. Halley's,
which Niedner estimates is slightly
smaller than Washington, D.C.,
loses only about a meter of material
in every swing past the sun. Its
appearances have been cited back to
240 B.C.;* though no one knows
how long the 76-year orbit has
existed, Niedner believes it's been
going for thousands of years "and
probably has thousands more to go. "
On average, five new comets are
discovered each year.* Few are as
long or as bright as Halley's, and
most orbits are so elongated that
scientists have only one shot to
observe them. Comet West, for
example, appeared in 1976 and was
"one of the brightest in the last
century," according to Niedner; but
its orbit takes 500,000 years.* The
much-touted Kohoutek of 1973 is
expected again in about 75,000
years. So Halley's, which for most of
us is a once-in-a-lifetime event, is a
reliable and accessible resource for
building our knowledge of comets.
The best sightings from earth will
be in the spring of 1986, Niedner
advises, and "if you have the time
and the money, go to the Southern
Hemisphere" to see it. Many ocean
lines will be sponsoring Halley's
comet cruises in the spring for serious
pleasure watchers. In late November,
all of December, and the first seven
to ten days of January, the comet will
be well-placed for viewing in the
Northern Hemisphere, though it will
not be as bright and binoculars may
be needed in some areas.
"It's a sight well worth seeing,"
says Niedner and since Halley's
comet won't be back until 2061, now
is our best opportunity. Happy view-
ing.

nity in Atlanta," Good explains.
Good and Clarke met with a group
of women before the UN conference
to be able to better represent local
concerns to the forum. They met
again Sept. 28 to discuss new plans.
Clarke says such meetings will
help project the forward-looking
stategies into the future. "The future
is brought about by individual people
committing their professional and
personal lives to the work."
The recognition that
women's issues are for the
good of the community
has persuaded men
to be concerned.
"I want to find women who might
he committed to local implemen-
tation of things," Good says. "That
will be more far-reaching than telling
people about the conference."
To illustrate the point, she told a
story. For five years, Kenyan Minister
for Culture and Social Services
Kenneth S.N. Matiba had worked
with committees and United Nations
staff on the conference. As it opened,
he welcomed the thousands of confer-
ence participants by describing the
strides "we women" have made in the
decade.
"Can you imagine?" an incredulous
Deirdre Good asks. "We women. And
he meant it! He's a 50- or 60-year-old
Kenyan, an African who has lived
through colonialism and every-
thing."
We women, he had said. "It's this
recognition that women's issues are
for the good of the whole community
that has persuaded men to be con-
cerned about them," Good con-
tinues. "We will not get anywhere in
this world if we don't work in partner-
ship." Women and men together
must implement the forward-looking
strategies adopted in the conference's
final hours. D

ALUMNAE UPDATE
An important message about your credentials file
Dear Agnes Scott Alumna,
In an effort to improve its
services to you, the Career
Planning and Placement
Office is updating its creden-
tials service, the system by
which student and alumnae
references are maintained and
sent, by request, to schools
and employing organizations.
In going through our files,
we have found that many of
the references we are holding
are obsolete some dating as
far back as the 1940s! Al-
though these outdated refer-
ences are of no value to
employers, we don't want to
destroy them without your
permission.
Please complete and sign
the attached form and return
it to us by Jan. 1, 1986. If we
do not hear from you by that
date, we will discontinue your
file.
Upon receipt of this form,
we will automatically main-
tain your credentials file for
five years, until Dec. 31,
1990, at which time you will
again be responsible for
updating it. If your file is
outdated (from 3-5 years old)
we will be pleased to send you
the forms necessary to estab-
lish a new one. References a
maximum of three must be
recorded on the forms supplied
by our office. We feel this
consistent approach helps to
project an organized, profes-
sional image to employing
organizations.
The 1974 Family Educa-
tional Rights and Privacy Act
gives students and alumnae
open access to their tiles.
Some employers, however,
perceive closed files to be a
more candid reflection of a
person's strengths and abili-
ties. If you wish to waive your
right of access to your creden-
tials file, please note on the
attached form that you wish
these files to remain closed.
Finally, because the cost of
this credentials service has
increased over the years, we
must begin charging a fee to
mail your references to pro-
spective schools and employ-
ers. Beginning Jan. 1, 1986,
the first set of credentials will
be sent free of charge. Each
subsequent mailing will cost
you $1.
We feel these changes will
enhance the value ot the
credentials service to both
alumnae and employers. If
you have any questions about
these changes, or if you would
like further information on
our credentials service, please
contact Dot Markert at (404)
371 -6397. We look forward to
hearing from you.
