There was no doubt in most students' minds that he would be teaching for many years. He was highly re- garded by students as a good psychology teacher, a reliable psychologist, and a dear friend. "Dr. Moffie always seemed to be there for any student who needed help." I knew of many students that received free ses- sions from him, and I feel with- out him they may have suffered greatly," told Chris Erckert. Obviously, the administration felt that Dr. Moffie was not qualified for tenure and they stood strong on their decision. Robert Strozier began a petition that was signed by well over 200 students and the Oglethorpe Student Association Senate sent a letter to the administration. Both were futile endeavors which were done to ask for a review of the decision. Ray Lu- cas, OSA president, and Stephen Schmidt, the Chairman of the Board of Trustees corresponded on this subject ultimately lead- ing nowhere also. It seemed to be a hard fact for some students to accept and many editorials were written on the subject. As the academic year came to an end, and so did Dr. Moffie's last year at Ogle- thorpe, controversy died down it was finally accepted (within the student body). Rath- er than harping on the subject, students began to look ahead; plans were made for a last fare- well in his honor. On the Friday before final ex- ams began, students gathered in a room in Hearst Hall for Dr. Moffie's last lecture. Students arrived up to 20 minutes early in order to get a good seat. As the room filled, anticipation and emotions grew rapidly. Peg O'Neal ran into class and an- nounced that Dr. Moffie was on his way. A hush filled the room as he entered. Then, on a sudden impulse, everyone began ap- plauding. This show of respea lasted a complete 5 minutes, sturming Dr. Moffie to a mo- tionless state. As Dr. Moffie made his way to his leaurn, peo- ple hugged him, shook his hand, and some even began to cry. He was dumbfounded. He stood in front of the class speechless. Finally, with tears in his eyes, he began to speak, only to be interrupted by another wave of applause. Dr. Moffie continued on, speaking to the class with candor on the issue, filling students in on his plans for the future, and finally giving his "official" good-bye speech. His speech brought many peo- ple to tears. ^^^^^e was taken completely by sur- W # prise, because he expected a class of under ten and was received by at least fifty people. Lori Garner; jr.

For this, he said, he would like to think that his teaching "helped to close cultural bonds . . . Helping East Meet West. Dr. Ken Nishimura has definitely come a long way. The professor of philosophy was born and grew up in Tokyo, Japan. Nishimura recalls that the educational system then, at the school he attended, was only nominal. He add- ed that a normal school day included "... practical, military drills" and school atten- dance "dwindled to almost nill." As a boy, he was witness to many of the horrors evoked by the second World War. In March of 1945, just five months before the war ended, he watched his home being destroyed by bombs. He was only twelve at the time: "It's miraculous that I'm still alive," he said. "About half of the people in the town where I lived were killed I was literally stepping over corpses in the streets." In the same year, in August of 1945, Dr. Nishimura journeyed to Hiroshima, where he became aware of the untoUed destruction caused by the atomic bomb. "A feeling of helplessness rushed through me as I saw what I saw ... all the debris and wreckage, the wood- en houses turned to dust and scraps, window panes melted like candy, bent iron poles. There was nothing left." But Nishimura said his feelings were mixed about the war; "I was repulsed on the one hand by the awesome and inhumane destruction, but on the other hand, I realized that it was we who started the war." But all in all, he agreed that "War is," most definitely, "hell." It was Dr. Nishimura's father who inspired his dream of becoming a Christian minister, says Nishimura. "I wanted to be able to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ." In 1948, he gave his life to Jesus Christ, and, as he says, "My whole life was transformed." His life dedicated to God, Nishimura left Japan to come to the U.S. in 1954. He landed in California, where he attended Pasadena College for four years. From there, he went on to the Asbury The- ological Seminary for three years, and after- wards, went to teach at Emory University in Atlanta. He was working on his doctorate when he was approached by Dr. Donald Ag- new at Oglethorpe and asked to teach. In 1964, he accepted the offer, and the rest, as they say, is history. In the same year, 1964, Nishimura was or- dained a minister of the Methodist Church. "Teaching and the ministry are not very differ- ent," asserts Nishimura. "I was called to teach here; I am convinced of that. My parish is Oglethorpe University and the class is my pul- pit. But occasionally, I would like to have my own church. I might do it when I retire." Dr. Nishimura said his greatest joy is to see his students "... translating the teachings of philosophy into their own intellectual insight." He also said, "It is one of the best rewards and deepest compliments." Dr. Nishimura advises students to look at life "... in its total per- spective and to look ahead." He urges them to be in service to God and mankind, "... taking time to seek rewards through unselfish pur- suits." He is a firm believer that peace is the "most crucial issue of mankind." ^eca-^l^etUf 9/ Michael Rulison Daniel Schadler William Shropshire Randy Smith Yearbook Advisor Perry Dement works in the Alumni Development Office.

But over the summer, when three women told of their res- ignations, many people were shocked.

That same week, Martha Sledge Kathleen's replace- ment as W.H.D. also resigned to give her- self more time to dedicate to finishing her graduate studies. Julie Weyer, Assistant to the Director of Financial Aid, left due to her recent wedding. Enjoying themselves during Kathleen Ganey's going away party ate Carole Duffy and Carol Johnston. The administration took months in replac- ing Dean Wheeler his successor was Don- ald Moore. Kathleen and Martha though, left suddenly and the administration had to act quickly because the fall semester was just six weeks away. Leigh Anne Leist was hired in Kathleen's place, and Martha was replaced by Ruth Ryan a student and at the time a Resi- dent Advisor.

The festivities truly began, though, when members of the stu- dent body, faculty, staff and alumni assembled in Lupton Auditorium to view what many referred to as the most successful and enjoyable presentation in the last few years. Coordination of the program was lead by Dean Donald Moore, who felt that a lighter approach would make the day more fun for all and increase student participa- tion. With that in mind, he asked Lane Anderson and Hank Bunnell to combine their talents and create a special presentation for the open- ing ceremony. Mr. Anderrson's past experience with the l')Oth convocation and Hank's 55rF video experience was Enjoying the convocation. Brent Bishop, Rise Nachman, Joey Masden, Kevin Wams- ley, Steve Cumbee, Mike Clance, And) Geeter, and Hank Bunnell watch the video tape that Lane Anderson and Hank Bunnell put together just the ticket to devise an enter- taining film for everyone. Their ar- chive-hound film was a combination 1938 "Two days at Oglethorpe" promotional film and a tape made throughout January that showed up-to-date scenes. Also included in the program was an audience participation sec- tion where Mr. Anderson inter- viewed various people to be added to the film. Dr. Manning PattiUo was asked to describe the average day in the life of the president and proceeded to explain to all that fu- ture policy would include no admit- tance to students with SAT scores over S)00 and grades below C would abolished! (If only that were true!) The festivities concluded on a high note with the introduction of the Stormy Petrel March (1924), dis- covered by James Bohart, arranged "Is there anyone you want to say hi to?" asks Lane Anderson to Toni Tatum, a Senior from California Toni was just one of the few students Lane Anderson interviewed during additional taping for the Oglethorpe Day by Irwin Ray and performed by the University Singers. The audience joined in to show some real school spirit. Leaving the auditorium, the crowd reassembled at the Emerson Student Center for a luncheon pre- pared by Epicure. The luncheon met with some great success as stu- dents wistfully asked "Can't we eat like this everyday.-'" The crowd mingled through the carnival atmo- sphere and a wide variety of foods including "Not-Joe's Nachos," "Marta Subs," and the "Var-City," were served. There was a great feel- ing of spirit and fun that made the entire day a huge success. \ .1 1 1 *7^ ^^& O^t^ ^04O^ Atlanta's snowfall of five to six inches did more than kick- off Spring semester '87, it stilled the busy city's traffic, slowed the nation through the closing of Hartsfield International Airport, and brought joy to every boy, girl, and college student who got to stay home from school. The slow but steady white stuff began falling the night be- fore, becoming seamless blan- kets of snow by the next morn- ing. After the exciting news that Oglethorpe was closed, on-cam- pus students lost no time prepar- ing for fun. Gloves and scarves and boots were donned to stave off the cold. Cameras came out of cases to record the memora- ble scene. And plastic trays were smuggled out of the cafeteria at breakfast and lunch to be em- ployed as sleds. It was only a short time be- fore the hill between the upper quadrangle and Traer Hall be- came a slick slope as students whizzed down on trays and gar- bage can lids. Later in the after- noon "Tennis Hill", a slope equal only to the Six Flags Scream Machine for steep- ness, was created between the tennis courts and the track. This one was definitely not for the faint of heart. For some students, creating "snow art" was a more enjoy- able pastime than hitting the slof)es. Snowmen, women and animals of every size popped up across the campus, adorned by the latest in fashion pinestraw and twigs. A few creations made artistic statements; a particular favorite, entitled "The Woman Scorned," was said to be an ac- curate representation of O.U.'s dating scene. By Monday, most of the evi- dence of the fun-filled weekend had melted away. Atlanta and the rest of Georgia was back to business as usual, almost as if nothing had occurred just four days before. ^^^ the midst of all the excite- ^ M ment during the first few inches, Teri Wall and John Wuichet take a minute out of their fun snowball fight to get a picture taken. Assuming that school would he cancelled, many students stayed up all night to enjoy the unique weather. ^ts Bryan and I walked MmiA along the campus tak- ^ ^ ing photos of all the snow, we found it pretty incredible that it actually snowed this much. But even more incredible was the miniature Lupton Hall that we stumbled upon in our journey it was very impressive. Denice Sayers 00%^gcilking behind the ^^Wm courts, I couldn't even ^rW^ imagine the size of the hill which we were approaching. Be- fore we were finished, our uneasin- ess had turned to recklessness as we formed a chain ofsledders hurdling down the hill. David Turner 7 here's no business like snow business, said Gary Hand when describing this photograph. Gary, Beth Eckard, and about three-fourths of the stu- dent body had snowball fights throughout the night. ci<^4lHf fS5 w The year had hardly begun when disaster hit the U.S. space program, with the explosion of the Challenger shuttle. The na- tion reeled with shock as the im- ages of that ill-fated launch were replayed on TV: 73 seconds of soaring American spirit, of American strength . . . and then there was nothing. A plume of smoke . . . imprinted in our minds. Tragedy around the globe . . . In the USSR, a serious nuclear accident occurred at Chernobyl, north of Kiev. Only a few deaths were initially recorded, but the final toll may never be known, as radiation poisoning kills in decades, not days. Trouble for Libya was tri- umph for the USA when Pres, Reagan ordered air strikes in April. The bombing was in re- taliation for Libyan-sponsored terrorism in Europe. "People Power" triumphed in the Philippines in early 1986, as Pres. Ferdinand JMarcos was ousted after he tried to once again steal an election. Cory Aquino was installed as the new President, but her first few months in office were plagued by the continuing insurgency raging in her nation. After the ouster of Marcos, tackiness also struck the island nation, as thou- sands of shoes were discovered in the presidential palace; they had been purchased by Imelda Marcos. The year 1986 also brought the Meese Commission Report on Pornography, a rather ludi- crous piece of work that was dis- missed by its critics as unscien- tific. Many claimed that the outcome of the commission's investigation had been pre-de- termined by Mr. Meese. And then there was the Statue of Liberty Centennial Celebra- tion, a celebration of the tri- umph of American spirit . . . pre- sented with American overkill. Tackiness was the rule, perhaps best shown by the 200 dancing Elvis impersonators who were a part of the glitz. Needless to say, "Entertainment Tonight" had a field day. Other issues of 1986: America swapped Chief Justices, as War- ren Burger stepped down and William Renquist took over. Drugs became the throwaway issue of the 1986 election, as ev- eryone postured to be more "anti-drug" than his opponent (as if any candidate was truly pro-drugs anyway!). In the elec- tion, the Democrats re-captured the Senate, and Georgia gained a new senator when Wyche Fowler defeated Mack Mat- tingly in a bitter campaign. America got substantive tax re- form, assuring accounting firms of continued business for years to come. And the summit in Rekjavik ended in disagreement and disarray. Two other big issues as 1986 became 1987: Ronald Reagan watched his Teflon chip away, as the "Iranamok" situation con- tinued to fester; damage control attempts by the wounded ad- ministration continued into the new year. Also, there was the march on Forsyth County to demonstrate for Civil Rights. But perhaps the biggest event of 1986 the one everyone was watching intently was the mys- tery assault on newsman Dan Rather. The CBS anchor was at- tacked on Park Ave. in New York by two men who asked him several times, "Kenneth, what is the frequency?" Rather refused to answer (a cover-up, perhaps.') and was summarily beaten. Truly, this was the Talk of the Town. ^kthink the people of America ^/ need to remember all the as- 9 tronauts that were killed in the space shuttle explosion, not just the first civilian. Elizabeth ^^t was about time that the ^M president stopped talking 9 about standing up against terrorism and started to actually do something to deter future vio- lence. Violent men only learn their lessons through violence, and I think Quaddafi learned his. Tom James TT ands Across America was a big success in many ways. It showed that Americans can come to the aid of their own people, just as well as to others. Most important- ly, the event raised consciousness and shed some light on a growing problem. But even though it was very successful, we still have a long to go.

Bette Midler, the queen of comedy, came back strong in two of the big blockbusters of 1986, Ruthless People and Down and Out in Beverly Hills, and Outrageous Fortune in early 1987. Top Gun cruised into town and became the blockbuster movie of the year grossing over 170 million dollars! Marlee Matlin made her debut in Children of a Lesser God, becoming one of the most sought after starlets. Paul Hogan, debuting in "Crocodile" Dundee, charmed the nation in the surprise hit of the year (grossing over 100 million). Si- gourney Weaver came back to the Big Screen and earned the title Ramholini while fighting off Aliens. In music, Madonna tied leg- endary Diana Ross for being the woman to have the most num- ber one hits (according to Bill- hoard) when Open Your Heart hit number one in January. Cyndi Lauper, coming back after a two year absence, sur- prised many critics and fans with True Colors, her follow-up album to her number one debut She's So Unusual. The Boss, Bruce Springsteen, came out with Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band Live 1975-1985 and set re- cord sales all over the nation, jumping to number one on the album charts. The Go-Gos' split and lead singer Belinda Carlylse lost forty pounds and went solo her debut album as a so- loist came out strong but dropped from the charts after only releasing two singles. On television, ABC's com- edy-drama series. Moonlighting popularized co-stars Cybil Shep- ard and Bruce WiUis. Willis, within his two years on the series became one of the nation's fa- vorite television personalities. While off the set of Moonlight- ing, he found time to make Sea- gram's Wine Coolers commer- cials; an album with Motown; a movie; and toured with his band Bruno and the Heaters which was shown on HBO. The most phenomenal thing in the entertainment world was the popularity of Bill Cosby 's se- ries, The Cosby Show. The show stayed in the number one slot for most of the year and charged an astronomical price for each commercial spot! With the help of Family Ties, Cheers, Night Court, and L.A. Law, The Cosby Show kept Thursday night "the night" to watch television. 7 'he Taming of the Shrew, along with King Lear, was one of the shows that The Georgia Shakespeare Festival based at Oglethorpe over the sum- mer performed for their inaugu- ral year. ^^^est known for her role in (^ The Bride of Franken- stein, Elsa Lanchester was an MGM starlette in the forties, she passed away during the winter. ^ymmortalized through his role as the Scarecrow, the brain- less friend to Dorothy in MGM's 1959 musical The Wizard of Oz, Ray Bolger was the last survivor of the main cast. 7ennis toughie John McEn- roe and Academy Award winning actress Tatum O'Neal (Paper Moon) married ten weeks after Tatum gave birth to Kevin Jack. Also married were Academy Award winner Timothy Hutton (Ordinary People) and Acade- my Award nominated Debra Winger (Terms of Endearment). ! eioU^ fS9 m I o^ 'po^u^tA ^&cMtf, ^e^MP^^, ^utcC tAe S^cetA. ta t^ w^Ce^tce^f ^uuC ^PtincAe^ ^ frautt cnlect ^^ to- ^ tnade (mce ^i^^ac^ uut tA^ cu^i^ cto^tCt tA^u^ actcc^ ^^acft4^ a^te dJUCi^ae^tcatadie,09t^tAc^cU^^ta^
