(^gnG8 Scott Co^^ege: 9f(i6 QAio/t^d Jo/t QAiomen

"Educates women to think deeply, live honorably and engage the intellectual and social challenges of their times."

In a world that is constantly changing it is nice to know that some things remain
constant. One thing that has not changed in over one hundred years is Agnes Scott College's
Bell Tower. When current students look at the Main Tower, they are able to connect with all
of the alumnae across the generations. There is much more to that; here at Agnes Scott we
have the unique opportunity to continue traditions, many of which have been happening for
near a century. This year's Si'/fioueffe hopes to continue in the rich tradition of story telling so
famous in the annuals from the 1950s. We have decided to interject a few photos and stories
from that decade to highlight some of the traditions that we cherish today and show how they
celebrated them back in the day. One of Agne's oldest traditions is Senior Investiture which
began in 1908 and is observed each fall. At this ceremony Seniors receive academic mortar
boards in recognition of their standing as a Senior. However, the tradition that went along
with this has long since become but a memory. Little Girls' Day, was celebrated each year on
the day prior to Investiture, and all Seniors would dress up and act like little girls for one last
day before they were expected to be the campus role models. Of course I am sure that this is
why Investiture always happened long after Black Cat. There are few current students that
can not talk about their favorite aspect of Black Cat. The tradition started in 1 91 5 by Dr.
Sweet, the professor of hygiene, in order to curtail the hazing committed by the Sophomores
on the First-Years. When the tradition began it was only between the Sophomores and First-
Years, and at the end of a week of following the Sophomores' rules, the two classes would
put on a stunt, or skit. It was not until the late 1 940s that Black Cat morphed into something
we would recognize today, and it would not be until much later for one of the favorite
aspects. Junior Production. However, there was very active competition between the classes
in the sports of basketball, field hockey, and archery. While the events themselves may have
changed over time the concept remained and the time honored tradition continues to welcome
First-Years to Agnes Scott and make them a part of the college. Of course one of the most
favorite traditions is the ring ceremony. Students who have Sophomore standing are eligible
to receive their rings during Sophomore Family Weekend in February. The rectangular black
onyx ring with "ASC" inscribed on its top holds a special place in most Scotties' hearts. It is a
tangible connection to all other alumnae across the generations. While the formal ceremony
itself is relatively new, the ring was introduced in the 1920s and has remained virtually
unchanged. Along with these remaining traditions Agnes has said goodbye to a few from the
fifties. May Day and its court and play are gone, the Senior Opera, and the Si/fioueffe
Beauties (if you have never heard of that one take a study break in the library and check out
some of the older annuals). We are not suggesting bringing them back; it is good to know
that Agnes Scott changes with the times. However, as we change with the times it is a comfort
to know that the students of the class of 1 906 decided that it was important to have student
government, and that they signed the same honor pledge that we all did as First-Years during
that Orientation weekend. On that note the Silhouette Staff of 2008-2009 presents to the
campus Now ... and Then.

QAie^come ome Scotttes

Orientation gives First-Year Students tlie chance to prepare Agnes Scott Residence Halls to be their homes.

So, you have decided to attend Agnes Scott.
Congratulations and welcome to your new home.
First, remember to go by the parking deck and pick

up your keys and shirt. Then be sure to get all of

your things out the car. This is not 1 950 when you

would have come with just one or two bags. Don't

worry there will be lots of people around to help out.

Then remember to meet your RA and hallmates.

After that it is off to the Honor Pledge signing, Agnes

Scott's oldest tradition. Everyone will be lining up

outside so don't be late. If you follow a bagpiper

you can't go wrong can you? So you will sign the

parchments that will be hung later in Buttrick. The

administration will welcome you and tell you why the

Honor Code is so important to Agnes Scott. Then

there is some time for you to meet new people and

just relax. Maybe you will get to meet President Kiss

or discover who plays Agnes Irvine (the Scottie dog).

Don't forget that the next day will be busy too.

Atlanta Challenge will be here to do some team

building and then you and your ASC 1 01 group will

be heading out to different places in Atlanta. All of

the activities will be wrapped up with a worship on

Sunday. So, if you enjoyed yourself be sure to thank

one of the members of the Orientation Council when

you see them.

Agnes Scott has changed in the past fifty years. New buildings have been built, we have a new
president, and the diversity of the student body has increased. Our enrollment has increased, and
boys are allowed in the dorms. But some things have not changed. We are still a women's college
dedicated to educating the future leaders of America. Agnes still remains a highly respected
institution that sends women in to the world ready for success. In following with the traditions of
annuals from the 1950s, the photos of the campus are presented here for future generations to imagine
what Agnes Scott looked like "back in the day." So, here's to another fifty years. May we grow and
continue to progress while still remembering where we came from.

Black Cat is the one week each year that Agnes
Scott looks like a tornado of yellow, red, green,
and blue has hit it. This year the Gold Diggers '09
decorated with a miners theme, the Phoenixes '10
created the Phoenix City, the Amazons '1 1 played
monopoly, and the Buccaneers '12 decorated with
their color of blue as is traditional for the First-
Years. While our themes may be very different
from that of the fifties the fervor for the week was
much the same.

Party days are a time for each class to throw a
party at dinner for the other classes. This year
the Gold Diggers "09 hosted Mardi Gras, the
Phoenixes '10 invited us to party downtown, the
Amazons '1 1 hosted a RockBand party in the
jungle, and the Buccaneers '12 invited us aboard
to sail the seven seas. These parties are scored
by the number of people who stay at dinner,
your activities, and the decorations.

Senior Investiture is a tradition that dates back decades and decades at Agnes Scott College. It
originated hundreds of years ago in English universities, but has since then become one of the college's
most cherished traditions. Even/ fall seniors gather in their newly received caps and gowns and practice
for their departure into the "real world", only months away. During the ceremony, they are capped with
their academic mortar boards as a symbol of their status. Senior investiture is concluded with a
celebratory family dinner and a worship on Sunday morning.

The chapel is named in honor of the late Julia Thompson Smith '31,

wife of the late Hal Smith, a generous donor and long-time chair of

the college's Board of Trustees. Whether one subscribes to a religion

or not, the Julia Thompson Smith Chapel is most certainly a unique

place for worship and meditation. Tucked away amidst the hustle

and bustle of everyday student life, the chapel's unique design and

purpose invites the busiest of us to rest, think and meditate. One of

the highlights of the new chapel is its simple, non-denominational

design. Those of all faiths and beliefs are invited to meet and

interact. Above all else, inter-faith practices are supported and

encouraged. Along with the inauguration of the Julia Smith Chapel,

the brand new Agnes Scott Believes progmm has begun and is held

each Friday at 10am in this space. This program is based on the

NPR show titled "This I Believe." Each week one faculty or staff

member and one student share their beliefs with the community.

ivery college campus has a jewel. The Julia Thompson Smith Chapel is ours:

"he problem to be faced is: how to combine loyalty to one's own tradition with

reverence for different traditions.

So Did You Know?

before the Julia Thompson Smith Chapel, Agnes Scott never had a free

standing chapel. In fact, the gazebo once functioned as the school's

chapel, as did Gaines Chapel of course.

While Dean Lee had only b
here for a short time when the
semester began, it felt as if she

had been a part of the Agnes Scott community for years. Dean Lee came to
Agnes Scott from Rollins College, also a liberal arts college, where she served as
the Dean of Student Affairs. When I sat down with Dean Lee, she said that one
of the reasons she was drawn to Agnes Scott was that she was impressed by the
women here and the way they express themselves... not to mention the grass that
drew many a Scottie to come here. Women at Agnes Scott, both today and
throughout history, have been willing to share their opinions with others,
making sure that their voices are heard by both the Agnes Scott community and the larger
community. Dean Lee mentioned that women are known to face injustice and inequality that they
see in the world and that women at Agnes Scott are on the forefront of that change. Dean Lee also
spoke to the community that we have here at Agnes Scott saying that there was "a sense of
connection, spirit, and pride" in our school. I asked Dean Lee what she felt was the most important
aspect of being a dean and she said that it was reaching out and making connections with students.
When Dean Lee held up the Black Kitty at bonfire, it seemed that her connection to the Agnes Scott
community grew even deeper. Her appearance at bonfire reinforced her belief that students are
whole beings who work hard in the classroom but also need to have time to play and grow outside of
the classroom. It has become clear that Dean Lee will be with Agnes Scott for many years to come
and will add a part of who she is to the traditions that all Scotties love and cherish. It has been a
pleasure to welcome Dean Lee and her family to the campus and have the opportunity to sit down
and not only talk to her but make a connection with her. I would suggest that every Scottie take the
time to form a relationship with our new dean. Sarah Kalaris '09

This new and innovative club on campus has an amazing agenda selected for this year and years
to come. The Philosophy Club combines all areas of interest at the school into events that everyone
can enjoy and get intellectual enjoyment out of.
This year we've worked hard to create the club around ideas that will appeal to a large range of
people that will help to join them together where otherwise they would be limited to specialized clubs.

We have ideas that include going on excursions into Atlanta that would include the Georgia
Aquarium where we can discuss the ethical issue of keeping animals in captivity for entertainment.
We also have movie nights that are held every month or we just get together to have a game night.

Blackfriars holds the disHncHon of being the oldest theatre company in Atlanta. How cool is that! This
school year has been both an exciting and refreshing season. Blackfriars, the student theater troupe,
was founded in 1915 under the direction of Frances S. Gooch, and as before mentioned claims the
distinction of being the oldest producing theater in Atlanta, as well as the oldest organization on
campus. Working in close cooperation with the theater faculty of the department of theater and
dance, Blackfriars offers students the opportunity to participate in all aspects of production, from
performance to technical theater. Blackfriars presents a major production each semester, as well as a
production for children and a collection of student-generated productions.

Emerging Leaders is a program offered to selected students who have been identified as first-year

leaders on campus.

These young leaders have the opportunity to participate in a multi-week program that exposes
them to different leadership topics and situations in order to refine their leadership skills.

Held every two weeks from January through April, the Emerging Leaders program broadens the

knowledge base of first-year leaders in areas such as creating leadership visions, leading a team,

communicating with diverse audiences, and leading with integrity. In 2009, members read and

discussed the book The Student Leadership Challenge and created and worked towards

accomplishing their own visions for campus and community projects.

The 2009 Emerging Leaders are Danielle Adamson, Dagny Asase, Courtney Brown,

Rebecca Deutsch, Kelly Domino, Stefanie Donham, Ashley Hunter, Lauren Kenney, Jasmine

Lewis, Stacey-Ann Love, Susie Martinez, Beverly McCall, Nadrat Nuhu, Syreeta Pritchett,

Kimberly Reeves, Ginia Taylor, Emily Thomas

The Emerging Leaders participated in a Low ropes course as a way to build and gain trust in each
other. This is an important aspect of working on a team and was a wonderful base for the four

topics the group would be discussing: How to create vision. Building relationships & respect for
others. Communicating like a leader, and Leading with integrity. These topics culminated in a

presentation of their leadership visions.

Each August, student leaders kick off the school year with an overnight retreat. They learn how to
more effectively manage their organizations, reach their goals and visions, and continue
developing as leaders. - ,^

The Fall 2008 Leadership Retreat was successfully held at Callaway Gardens in Pine Mountain,
GA on August 18th and 19th. Student leaders gathered to build relationships, share challenges
and solutions, learn more about each other's organizations, and get motivated for the new year!

The Retreat was attended by the leaders of the 70 plus student organizations, the Orientation
Council, Residence Life Staff, Class Officers, Student Senate, and the Executive Council of the
Student Government Association.

1-3) It sure did seem early in the morning but we were all
excited to go on the Retreat.

4) Our new dean Donna Lee introduced herself to the group
and had us recognize the other leaders we admired in the
group by tying a string around their wrist. This is a practice in
Tibet before a person goes on a journey so that they
remember all of the people who are supporting them at home.

5) Joy Griggs the new Director of Residence Life also
introduced herself.

6 and 7) It was then of course time for some ice breakers to
help us get to know each other better.

Sophomore Family Weekend is a time honored tradition. The high point of the weel<end is when
the Sophomores actually receive their rings. The rectangular, black, onyx stone inscribed with
ASC has not changed since the ring was first worn in 1923. This ring ties all Agnes Scott
alumnae together, and many upperclasswomen tell stories about how they were out somewhere
and someone saw their ring and stopped them to say, "I went to Agnes Scott too!" It is in the
spirit of sisterhood that we welcome the Sophomores to the "Black Ring Mafia" and say
congratulations you are now a full member of the Agnes Scott Community for life. Wear your
rings proudly.

The Sophomore Class display their rings after the ceremony.

The Agnes Scott College Womens soccer
team grabbed an early lead over Maryville
College and actually extended it, but could
not hold on, as they dropped the Great
South Athletic Conference (GSAC)
tournament semi-final game 7-2 on Friday.
The loss ended the Scotties' season in the
semi-finals of the conference tournament
for the fifth consecutive year.

The Scotties got off to a dream start when
senior Ashley Schmidt hit the yard 45
seconds into the game to give the Scotties
their first lead against Maryville in three
years. The start got even better in the 22n(
minute when Kate Schuhlein
(Germantown, Tenn.) split the Lady Scots
defense and doubled the lead.

"I honestly could not believe the start",
Head Coach Joe Bergin said. "To score
one is great, but two is outstanding. And
we hit the cross bar on another shot! I was
hoping we could sustain that energy level
for the whole game."

With several injuries later in the half,
Maryville finished the half on a roll, scoring
three goals in a span of 13 minutes to go
into the break up 3-2. The Lady Scots
finished off the Scotties in the second half
with four additional goals for the final
margin of 7-2.

The score does not look good, but I am so
proud of our kids, said Bergin. To put this
into perspective, we started seven first-
years today against a team that has not
lost in 88 conference games. This bodes
well for us for the future. We have a bunch
of off-season work ahead of us which
includes strengthening our players and the
squad through recruiting.

The Scotties finished the year 7-12-1 and
have advanced to the GSAC tourney semi
finals every year under Bergin.

by teammate and junior, Michelle Bach
who finished 10th.

First-year Merrill Montgomery earned a
spot on the All-Freshman Team as one of
the top five first-year finishers, placing 19th
overall out of 45 runners. Other

"I am very proud of the cross country team
for their hard work and dedication," Head

balance school and athletics and these
young ladies have continued to excel in
both areas."

After leading by one at halftime, the Agni
Scott basketball team fell to Huntingdon
College, 54-46 in the semifinals of the
Great South Athletic Conference
Tournament. The loss ended the Scotties"
season, who finished the year with a 13-1'
overall record.

"When your defense is able to hold a
talented team like Huntingdon in the 40s
before last-minute fouling and execute well
enough to get so many open looks, you an
doing a bunch of things right," Ciccone
said. "We wanted the victory as much or
more than Huntingdon did, but our second-
half shooting hurt us." I

The contest was the final game for Scottie
seniors Kristen Davis, Nicole Maples and
Morgan Smith. Maples and Smith scored
13 and 1 1 points respectively, while Davis
made key plays on the defensive end.

Prior to the game, GSAC Conference
Honors were awarded. Junior Am'asa
Baldwin and senior Morgan Smith were
each named to the All-Academic Team.
Smith was also named to the All-
Conference Team, while first-year Kimberl
Reeves was named to the All-Freshman
Team. Reeves scored 13 points in the loss

After three days and six sessions of
competition, the Scotties shattered three
school records, had one NCAA qualifying
time, and splashed to fourth place overall
at the 2009 Atlantic States Swim
Championships. This is the second year in
a row the squad finished fourth in a field of
12 teams.

Sophomore April Whitley and first-year
Katherine Curtiss led the Scottie charge,
each placing in the top eight for all three of
their individual events. For the second
straight year, Whitley earned an NCAA B
qualifying time of 2:26.67 in her victory in
the 200-yard breaststroke. She also
finished second in the 100-yard
breaststroke and 4th in the 200-yard
individual medley.

Curtiss set a school record in the 400-yard
individual medley (4:48.69, breaking the
old mark of 4:53.71 set by Amy Zvonar in
2001), her performance earning her 3rd
place overall. She also finished fifth in the
200-yard individual medley in a career-besi
2:15.79, and seventh in the 200-yard
backstroke in 2:16.26.

Junior Maggie Hamilton and senior
Shannon Reisner each added three top-12
performances of their own. The duo placed
tenth and eleventh, respectively, in the
500-yard freestyle. Hamilton also grabbed
eighth in the 200 freestyle and 200
backstroke, while Reisner was fifth in the
1650 freestyle and eighth in the 200-yard
breaststroke.

Whitley, Curtiss, Hamilton, and Reisner
joined forces four times, earning fourth
place in all four relays they swam and
setting ASC records in the 400 and 800
freestyle relays (3:52.24 and 8:26.38,
respectively, breaking former records of
3:53.08 and 8:29.16).

A new era of Agnes Scott Softball began
this year with the 2008-09 season. The
Scotties were under the leadership of new
head coach Shawn Bowers. With a solid
core of returning players and a number of
talented First Years entering the program,
Bowers attempted to repeat the success
he experienced during his four years at
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI).

While at RPI, Bowers helped lead his tearr
to the NCAA Tournament, as well as a
conference championship. Bowers was
part of a staff named Conference Coachin(
Staff of the Year, as he specialized in
hitting and outfield play. Bowers will now
attempt to bring his winning ways to the
Scotties, with a conference championship
as the team's goal.

The Class of 2009 entered Agnes Scott in the fall of 2005 and soon adopted the

Muses of Apollo as their mascot. By the next fall the class adopted the Gold

Diggers as their offical mascot for the next three years. The costumes really

reflected the double entandre inherient in the name, they wore miners hats and

gold necklaces. They were victorious in their Senior Black Cat and took top honors.

The class hosted several fundraiser events for Dress for Success and gave back to

the community in as many ways as possible. There were lots of good times with

friends, family weekends, and class events. Four years are coming to a close and

as Orientation said it would be the ride of our lives. Always remember the great

traditions and days. The Class of 2009 will always hold Agnes dear. We may not

know all of the reasons that we love Anges but we do. Farewell, Agnes Scott.

We will miss you!

Dennis first came on the scene in 1951

and since then has become one of the

most recognizable cartoon characters

in history. Dennis the Menace would

make his first appearance as a mascot

at Agnes Scott in 1957, he would

appear two more times as a yellow

class mascot. As the class of 1957

related its class history in the 1957

Silhouette, they participated in many

of the traditions we hold dear at
Agnes Scott today. They also ran a
dry cleaning service, participated in
the Senior Opera and May Day, and
left a legacy for their yellow sisters
across the years.

Class of 1961

The most popular
major in the class
of 1961 was
History. To quote
from the 1961
Silhouette:
"Parties and
~ dances were
^ dimmed by the
more serious moments of Investiture and Graduate
Records. Emotions, too, were mixed. Pride was felt for
things accomplished; regret in things left undone.
There was joy and anticipation of the future; sadness
with the thought of leaving friends behind." It is clear
that the women of the class of 1961 felt much the same
way we do as we are coming to the end
of our journey here at Agnes Scott.

Daisy Mae was the love of Lil

Abner in the now famous comic

strip of the same name. Running

for over 40 years the couple married

in 1952 and lived a relatively quiet

life. Daisy Mae became a domestic

housewife and remained that way.

However, it seems that the women

of Agnes Scott may have picked her

for other virtues. Agnes women

were still majoring in English or

History and not much had changed

in the way of traditions.

The class of 1989 was full of diverse majors but the top two were Psychology
and Economics. The college's centenial year was a year long celebration. The
year was a celebration of one-hundred years of keeping the promise, of
educating women, and a renewed fervor to be around for a hundred more.
The members of the Senior class participated in many social events and
protest both on campus and off campus.

Class of 2001
This class was
most likely
either a
Business and
Economics
major or a
Psychology
major. The
class was much
like the Class of 2009. They were
spirited and not afraid to show it. The
class dominated the Black Cat
festivities and the college was a hub of
activity. Alston was opened and the
Library renovation was completed.
Agnes Scott had plans for the future
lined up but they recognized the
importance of traditions and the rich
history of Agnes Scott.

I want to start by saying thank you to Agnes Scott College, the institution. It has taught me more
about myself than I could have ever hoped to learn and when I look up at the bell tower of Main I
think about all of the good, bad, and even ugly times I have had at Agnes Scott. But, I also remember i
that Agnes will always be there for me when I need it and I can always call it home. I love this place, *
it is in my blood, and I will never forget it. That black, onyx ring we all wear will not let me forget it. '
I was fortunate to be able to follow Dean Hudson's advice during Orientation and get involved like
many of you in the Class of 2009. I will always treasure the time I spent as a Residence Assistant, the |
Secretary of our class, and as a member of the Colonnade Club but, the Silhouette holds a special
place in my heart. So, now to the book and the cause of my writing. Before the fall of 2007 I had *

never been the Editor-in-Chief of anything, I barely edited my papers before turning them in. As I
write now I am thinking about how many picas the text should be from the center of the book and re- j
reading every word as I type. When I became the editor my junior year, I was terrified. I was

involved in so many things that it seemed most days that nothing would get done on time or turned "*
in ever. I quickly learned that working on the yearbook was a labor of love and that I would have to |
do what I could to present that to the campus community. I have never felt like I succeed in my task |
but, I have been told time and time again that the 2008 Silhouette was a success. I owe that success to
several people and to those people I am both grateful and in their debt. For both the 2008 and 2009 ]
Silhouette I must thank eternally Whitney Brown '07. Without her guidance and care I am sure that
more than once I would have thrown in the towel and said "forget it, I hate the book, I no longer care j
if it gets done." She was always at the other end of my telephone telling me that none of those things
were true and that I just needed to take a break, "maybe you should think about some sleep." ,

Whitney, I am forever grateful and blessed to be able to call you my friend and be able to blame my *
yearbook worries and problems on you, since you were the one who said that I would be a great '

Editor. Your friendship means the world to me and I hope that you know I never could have made i
these two yearbooks without you. You taught me everything I needed to know about making a I

yearbook. For the 2008 book I am also in debt to Shannon McKnight '08 whose constant work on the t
book kept me sane. Your layouts were impeccable and you always had a smile to brighten the office. |
I wish you the best in all you do. Pauline, I owe you a big one too. Neither book would have been
completed without your hard work and willingness to listen to me complain at all hours of the night.
Thank you for your friendship over our years here and I hope to stay close for many more. I want to !
also thank my staff from both years as they were a huge help to me and kept me going because we
know that one person can not make the book by themselves. I want to thank Nicoline Strom-Jensen
'06 as a past Editor and friend, you have been willing to listen to me complain about the book to no i.
end and for that I thank you. I want to be sure and thank my parents who have always been in my
comer and never let me think that I could not succeed. I have to thank Erin Howie the adviser not |
only to the Silhouette but to my future. The number of hours that I have spent in your office should
be billed to Agnes as therapy sessions. You always had the time to stop and listen to my crazy 3

ranting, thank you. A big thank you goes out to the Class of 2009, 1 love and adore too many of you ^
to try and make a list but please know that I will not forget you any time soon. I want to also thank %
Kristy Smith, Dean Hall, Kirby Hager Johnson 06, Eunice Li Chay '08, Mia Jacintho '10, Annie Kim {
'06, President Kiss, The Office of Alumnae Relations, Betty Derrick 68, Dean Hudson 68, Dean Lee, |
"^ ^nckson- Minot, and Dr. Coia. The list of people to thank could go on for days but I will have to i
nk you face to face. I just want everyone at Agnes Scott to know "You're the Best!" I refuse to |
suy bye to this place and its people so, until we meet again. I hope that my work on the 2009 1

Silho. vill measure up to the 104 volumes that come before it. With that I give you the 105th i

Volumt the 2009 Silhouette. 1

When my legs weaken, and no longer support

Or my eyes fail me and I cannot see what's in

And these hands tremble and my feet become
incapable of motion-
There will be you.

You give yourself so willingly to me.
My limitations are easily overcome
Because two are better than one.

Oh sister. You found me in the grass

Ard took my hand to lead me around

Mow you are my alibi, my partner.

And where you go I shall always follow.
