This marker can be found on top of
Lupton Hall. It is one of the few
places in Atlanta where a person can
stand and have a clear view of both
Stone Mountain and Kennesaw
Mountain.

The Guiness Book of World Records identifies the Ciypt of Civilization as "the first successful
attempt of bury a record of this culture for any future inhabitants or visitors to the planet earth"
(1990). The Crypt was first proposed by Oglethorpe's president, Thomwell Jacobs, the "father
of the modem time capsule." It was sealed on May 28, 1940, and it is not to be opened until May
28. 8113 A.D.The chamber is the size of a swimming pool and contains over 640.000 pages of
micro-filmed material, a set of Lincoln logs, a Donald Duck doll, and thousands of other item from
dally life. There also is a device designed to teach the English language to the Crypt's finders.
The International Time Capsule Society was established in 1990 and serves to promote the
careful study of time capsules. The group holds its headquarters here at Oglethorpe University.

Dean Donald Moore, our
illustrious Dean of Com-
munity Life

Like many other colleges and uni-
versities Oglethorpe is plagued with
the necessity for courses. Yet, here
we are granted a strong liberal arts
core program of study. Whether
they teach fine arts, English, his-
tory, education, philosophy, psy-
chology, sociology, business
courses, or science, our professors
are the best. Each faculty member
is well versed in his or her field of
study, and 95% hold a Ph.D. or
terminal degree. The next few
pages display the instructors
you've grown to love and some
interesting facts you may not have
known about them.

Betty Nissley has
the dubious honor
of being Marshall's
secretary.

Professor James Bohart:
Associate Professor of Music

Here at Oglethorpe we are
graced with the presence of
professors who help to
break the monotony of
everyday life. Some do this
by introducing music, art,
and drama into our classes
and on the stage.

Dr. W. Irwin Ray: Director
of Musical Activities

Professor Lee fCnippenbcrg
Director of the Drama Program

The write stuff

"I have a paper due
next week." Does this
phrase sound famil-
iar? Well it should,
since one of the larg-
est emphasis in
Oglethorpe education
is the ability to write a
good paper. And to
help you with this
task, we have a supe-
rior English staff that
is more than willing to
tell you what you're
doing wrong.

Dr. William Brightman: Professor of
English

Dr. Douglas McFarland: Assis-
tant Professor of English

Did you ever wonder how you could embarrass your professors? Well, a
few of them have shared some of their most embarrassing experiences with
us. Have you ever wandered into a class on the first day and later realized
you were in the wrong room? Imagine that happening to the professor, a
few of our own professors have had this happen to them. In addition. Dr.
Ray once conducted an orchestra performance with his tie caught in his
zipper.

Dr. Michael McClure: Assis-
tant Professor of English

Dr. Victoria Weiss: Professor
of English

16

What exactly do these
people do when they
aren't devising ways to
put more stress in our
lives? Believe it or not,
some of them use their
free time to pursue a
hobby, some stranger
than others. Professor
Jim Bohart plays with
model railroads, while
Dr. Dan Schadler grows
ciysanthemums. Dr.
Michael McClure
spends his time feeding
a spider named Gloria,
and Dr. Dean Tucker
does everything from
practicing magic to
building doll house fur-
niture. (And you
thought your professors
weren't interesting!)

Dr. David Chawszczewski: Assis-

How smart are these people anyway?

The I.Q.s of our staff go to various
extremes.

Dr. Hetherington and Dr. Carlisle
share a similar l.Q, of 9.5 which also
happens to be their shoe sizes. While
Dr. Clark gives herself a little more
credit with a response of at least 40.
Then again we have our super extreme
genius Lee Knippenberg who tips the
scales at 2,479.6. (1 think she put the
decimal in the wrong place.) Others
didn't share their I.Q.s with us- -what
are they trying to hide?

Oh! College, what an experience- - one that some are doomed to repeat.
Our professors are some of these people. Let's see where some of them
got started. Dr. Ray: Samford, originally a chemistry major. Professor
Bohart: Northern Illinois University. Professor Nick: Yale. Dr. Schadler:
Thomas More College. Dr. Cramer: Wheaton College. Dr. Clark: Georgia

The Lab Rats

Dr. Keith Aufderheide: Professor
of Chemistry

Dr. Martha Rosenthal: Professor of
Biology

Dr. Daniel L. Schadler: Professor of

We asked the teaching staff what they
would call a movie about their life stories
and who would play them. Did you know
that Dr. Schadler could see himself por-
trayed in a movie by Tom Cruise? As you
can see, we recieved some interesting re-
sponses. Lee Knippenberg sees herself in
"Beyond the Proscenium" with Sandy
Duncan. Dr. Carlisle would be played by
Marty Feldman, while Dr. Clark would be
portrayed by Shirley Temple. So what do
you think of these choices? Who do you
think should portray our fine faculty?

Dr. G. Malcolm Amerson: James Ed-
ward Oglethorpe Professor of Biology

Dr. Monte W. Wolf: Professor of Chemistry

22

It's In The Numbers

Dr. Michael K. Rulison: Professor of Physics

Dr. John A. Cramer: Professor
Physics

Dr. Robert A. Blumenthal: Professor of
Mathematics

Dr. Raymond J. Kaiser: Assistant
Professor of Mathematics

So far we have shared with you some little
known facts we gathered about the faculty.
Some may have been amusing, some you
could have lived without, like Dr. Ray's
partiality towards "Star Trek: the Next
Generation" as opposed to Dr. martin's
preference of the original Star Trek. We
spared you political divisions and other
boring facts. All in all we hope you learned
a little more about your professors, maybe
enough to taunt them.

RHA FALL CARNIVAL

The Fall Carnival, spon-
sored by RHA. brought
sideshow fun to the
Oglethorpe campus. It
featured many games and
prizes as well as a
Starwalk and free cotton
candy. It also provided
the long awaited "Hit

Cream Pie" event. DAKA
provided a cookout and
fun was had by all attend-
ees.

YUMMY! Cotton Candy!

Parent's Weekend

Parent's weekend is a time
when families come to
Oglethorpe and visit their
college kids. (They also
come to spy and confiscate
illegal contraband.) But,
really, it is a time of great
fun to see how the students
live and meet their friends
and professors. During this
year's Parent's Weekend,
parents were invited to
attend lectures given by the
faculty and staff. Other
events that occurred this
weekend were a Petrel soc-
cer game, the RHA Fall
Carnival, a reception at the
president's house, a perfor-
mance by the University
Singers, and a magic show

by Dr. Dean Tucker. ,

Ccin you do this,
on stage?

Cathryne Callaway, Lucy MacGregor,
and Scott Stagg give us their rendition
of "Closer to Fine."

^oiu'd He do that?

Do you have what it takes to get
up on stage in front of an open
audience of Ogelthorpe stu-
dents? Well some of your peers
did earlier this year in the
Bomb Shelter's "Open Mike
Night." Students both new and
old displayed their talents with
music, poetry readings, origi-
nal stories, and even juggling.
Do you think you'll be able to
participate next year? Who
knows, maybe you'll be a hit.

Anyone who has doubts about
the powers of ESP was made a be-
liever after seeing Craig Karges in
action. "Entertainer of the Year"
Craig Karges brought his "Magic of
the Mind" show to the OU campus
in September. He fascinated the
audience with his incredible abilities
as an illusionist. Levitating tables,
making predictions that came true
during the course of the show, as
well as other acts that seemed to-
tally beyond reason were the com-
mon fare.

According the Karges, "We
only use 0-20% of our minds. Think
about the capabilities that must lie
within the 80-90% of our unused
minds." Obviously Karges has
tapped into the 80-90% potential
judging from his mindboggling per-
formance

"Love's Labor's Lost"

On October 14-17, the Playmakers sucessfully
performed Shakespeare's comedy, "Love's
Labor's Lost" under the direction of Lee
Knippenberg. This story tells how King
Ferdinand of Navarre and his three friends
decide to retire to the woods and spend three
years of studjang, fasting, and speaking to no
women. However, their plan is destroyed
when the Princess of France and her three
ladies come to Navarre on a diplomatic mis-
sion. The four men of Navarre become in-
trigued by the French women and write son-
nets to them. The women, after discovering
that the king and his courtiers are coming
with masks to woo them, mask themselves
and see to it that each man gets the wrong girl.
After this is cleared up, word comes that the
King of France is dead and the princess must
return. King Ferdinand asks the princess to
many him, and his lords propose to her
ladies, who join the princess in postponing
their answer for a year and a day. This
delightful play was typically Shakespearean,
filled with word play and consistently holding
the audience's attention.

Submitted by Yoli Hernandez

The princess and three other ladies (Helen
Holifield. Kimberly Worley, Jennifer Wyatt,
and Stacey Geagan) successfully confuse
the king and friends.

The king (Chris Brown) and his men (Troy
Dwyer, James Gramling, and Tharius Sumter)

INTERNATIONAL NIGHT

The belly dancer made sure that Dr. Stanton enjoyed
International Night. But what about Mrs. Stanton?

On November 6th the annual Inter-
national Night, organized by the
members of the International Club,
occurred. This year the club decided
on a theme of "Peace and Festivities"
because the members thought
people needed to think of peace in
the war-torn world of today. There
were special displays of the Euro-
pean Economic Community flag and
the flag of the Philippines, which
tells the story of war and peace. A
May- Pole from Great Britain, the
story of Halloween from Ireland, a
"Vesak Lantern" from Sri Lanka
were just some of the objects on
display. Special contributions from
the French Club and the Black
Student Caucus were also included.
The entertainment for the night
began with a message of peace deliv-
ered by Dr. Smith. A belly dancer,
Greek, Latin American, and Japa-
nese dancers combined with Rus-
sian. French, Arabic, and Georgian
(the Republic) music to make a
wonderfully successful night.

Top Row: Alan Tudors, Beau Lyons, Jeremy Knights, and Alex Csidei.
Second Row: Derek Duplessis, Coach Unger, Chris McDuffie, and Doug Pack.
Bottom Row: Greetje Alting, Katie Farrell, Stephanie Chaby, and Linda Davis.

Final Results: Out of eight teams in Conference, the men ranked fourth and the
women ranked fifth. Both Doug Pack and Stephanie Chaby were named All-Confer-
ence. Out of all the schools in the South, the men ranked ninth and the women
ranked twelfth. Over the last 40 years, both teams have been 40- 1 in dual meets.
Doug, Derek, Stephanie, Katie, and Linda were named All-Metro during the meet that
involved various schools from Atlanta.

Doug Pack qualified for the National meet
held in Iowa this year. Under the pressure
of powerful competition and cold weather,
he ran the five kilometer race in a time of
27 minutes and 42 seconds. Doug placed
162 out of 182 of the best runners in the
nation.

GREEK HOUSING

The majority of the new Greek houses
for the four fraternities and two sorori-
ties on campus were to be completed by
middle to late August. However, several
delays occurred. During the spring and
early summer, heavy rain slowed the
progress of construction. The next
serious delay came when the Greek
members discovered that there were
not going to be any stoves available in
the houses. This delay occurred be-
cause the architect failed to design
proper ventilation to allow for stoves in
the basement of the houses. On Octo-
ber 15th, the Delta Sig and KA houses
seemed to be completed, but both
houses failed inspection. Meanwhile,
Chi Phi was about to be forced out of
their house off of Wieuca with no where
to place all of their possessions. In
November everyone was finally settled
in their new houses.

-Jason Thomas, "Stormy Petrel"

The brothers of Chi Phi were forced lo
find a place to store their possessions
while they waited for the completion of
the house.

The brothers of SAE asked for a lion
to be placed on the front lawn. The
lion was the subject of vandalism
during the completion of the houses.

MEN'S SOCCER

The men's soccer team finished this season with a 7-9-2 record, placing them
sixth in the SCAC. The season was plagued with injuries, arguments, ejections
from games, and ineligibility problems. Despite these problems, several players
achieved All-Conference honors. Will Lukow was named Co-Player of the Year.
Joe Aykempong was named to the first team. Cameron Bready, John Nunes!
and Rob Fearon were named to the second team. Congratulations guys! Several
players will graduate this year. They include Captain Cameron Bready, Joe
Aykempong, and Rob Hutcheson. They will be greatly missed!

The ladies also had players named to the All-SCAC team. Junior
Kirsten Hanszek made the first team, while senior Michelle Ponte

Black Student Caucus
Dance Contest

The Black Student Caucus organized
an all-night dance contest in Novem-
ber. Contestants started dancing at
about 9:30 p.m. and the last dancer
quit at 8:30 the next morning. The
winner was a student from Agnes Scott
who received $50 from BSC.
Oglethorpe students with an I.D. were
invited to the dance for free. The BSC
members worked hard to make sure
the dance was a blast, and they suc-
ceeded!!

THE DATA GENERAL GAMES

Pictured from left are: Ronald L. Skates, President & CEO of Data
General, Paul Mahar, Katie Farrell, David Stevens, and Michelle John.

A team of our students won the Data General Games, which also challenged students
from Georgia Tech and Morehouse College to devise a solution to Atlanta's traffic prob-
lems over the next 20 years. The Games were sponsored by the Data General Corpora-
tion and held at the Inforum on October 26. The Oglethorpe team members received an
all-expenses paid trip to the 1994 Uniforum conference in San Francisco, March 21-24.
In addition. Data General donated a color laptop computer to Oglethorpe. Our winning
proposal recommended creating an automated Nerve Center, which would be in contact
with all elements of Atlanta's transportation system. The nerve center would both re-
ceive and transfer information to and from vehicles, maintaining constant surveillance of
the alternate routes available to them.

OAK

OAK initiates anxiously await their chance to
kiss the pig.

The Gicat Hall is a wonderful place
for a Christmas tree or an initiation.

Omicron Delta Kappa, the national leadership fraternity here at Oglethorpe,
held its initiation as always during the annual Boar's Head Ceremony. This
year OAK more than doubled the size of their active student members adding
nine students to the ranks. OAK also was proud to initiate two members of
our faculty. The Oglethorpe chapter of Omicron Delta Kappa now stands at
43 strong with these people in thier ranks:

BOAR'S HEAD CEREMONY

The Boar's Head ceremony
officially begins the holiday season
here at OU. The ceremony is in-
spired by the Coat of Arms of the
family of James Edward Oglethorpe.
It depicts the profiles of three
beast's heads representing the
strength, courage and vigor of the
Oglethorpe family.

In keeping with tradition, the
ceremony included the presentation
of the new members of Omicron
Delta Kappa, the lighting of the
campus Christmas tree, the annual
Christmas concert by the OU Sing-
ers, and other holiday musical per-
formances, including the OU Winds,
the Recorder Ensemble, Yuko
Nishimura singing Handel's "Rejoice
Greatly, O Daughter of Zion", and
OU's president Dr. Donald Stanton,
singing "I Heard the Bells on Christ-
mas Day".

Following the ceremony was a
reception, held in the Oglethorpe
University Museum, and the new
ODK initiates kissing of the Boar's
Head.

We distributed questionnaires to the student body in order to capture the
spirit of Oglethorpe students. Here are just a few of the wackiest responses
that we received :

Name someone on campus who resembles a famous
person.

* Kent McKay looks like Mr. Clean.

* Dr. Knippenberg looks like Rick Moranis (It's gotta
be the glasses and the hair).

* Will Lukow looks like William Shatner. Hair, side-
bums, attitude... it's all reminiscent of the old Star

Trek.

* Dr. Schadler looks like Mr. Spacely on the Jetsons.

* Mrs. Stanton looks like Margaret Thatcher.

* Julie Agster looks like the girl who played Wednes-

day in the Addams Family movie.

What is the strangest thing that you've caught
your roommate doing?

* Shaving certain body parts.

* Singing loudly and dancing around the room to
country music while half-dressed. (She was un-
aware that the door was open and 1 had a few
friends with me.)

* Studjang.

* Chasing squirrels.

* Waking up in the middle of the night and run-

ning outside because he thought it was raining.

92

What one word do you think best describes the Oglethorpe community?

*STUDIOUS

*GOSSIP

*TIRED

*COOL
*LOONEY BIN

*GOSSIP

*TINY

*CONFUSED

APATHETIC

*SLEEPY

CORPSES

SMALL, DAMN SMALL!
(OOPS, THAT'S TWO
WORDS.)

FRIENDLY BUT
INDIFFERENT

LAZY

93

What do you typically do to avoid studying?

* Read fantasy novels
* Clip my toenails

* Tutor other students in the same subject

* Scream out the window and drink

* Fill out questionnaires

* Clean the bathroom

* Kill people

* Make colorful mosaics with belly button lint

* Watch T. V.

* Talk about meaningless subjects

* SLEEP

* Number One Answer: ANYTHING!

94

What happens when you try to catch a PETREL?

* YOU GET S- -T ON.

* IT STARTS TO GOSSIP ABOUT STUDENTS.

* YOU IGNITE, YOU KNOW THE STORY.

* IT KILLS YOU.

* YOU FEEL STUPID-THERE ARE NO LONGER ANY LIVING PETRELS.

* YOU DISCOVER THE WONDERS THAT BIRD POOP CAN DO FOR YOUR HAIR.

* YOU GET CRAPPED ON, OR YOU BUTT YOUR HEAD AGAINST THE PADDED WALLS
OF YOUR ISOLATED ROOM IN THE SOLITARY CONFINEMENT WARD.

If Time magazine decided to write an article
about Oglethorpe, what would you suggest that
they focus on?

* O.U. men... the three varieties: those who love themselves,
those who love their fraternity, and those who love other
men.

* The lunchroom demi-goddess who wears suits to work with
vulgar food each day.

* Coach Unger-the man behind the mind.

*The theory that O.U. is a psychological testing center, and
the students are the subjects in a psychological experiment.
(Why else would the barbed-wire face inward?)

* The excellent faculty and high standards set for students

compared with the volume of alcohol they consume.

An EXPERIENCE Not To

Be Soon Forgotten!

Imagine riding through a
futuristic cityscape, or flying
into canyons and caves, or
riding on a roller coaster that's
not quite... real. Add a whole lot
of sound and motion and you've
got The Alpha Experience. It is
truly an experience! You get the
feeling of travelling everywhere
and yet you never leave your
seat, you are just on the edge of
it the whole time. Actually, seat
belts are provided so you don't
accidently leave your seat but
they don't detract from the feel
at all and kept you from getting
injured. This virtual reality ride
is one which would be welcomed
again in the future.

The Red Cross Blood Drive

Filling Out Forms

The Blood Drive is a very impor-
tant event. It means people's lives can
be saved with blood transfusions when
needed. It also means free food and
drinks for those who participate. This
school year OU received an award for
the largest percent of participation for
a school its size. It is nice to know
there are people who care enough to
donate blood that is desperately
needed.

Thank you to all the
Oglethorpe students and
staff that participated and
made this project possible.

workers need to
make sure every-
thing is alright

Oglethorpe Leadership Day

This was the second Oglethorpe Lead-
ership Day organized by the Community
Life office and ODK for the development
of student leadership. Bill Kelso and Joe
Buck conducted the days activities. Stu-
dents were asked to answer questions like
"who am I ?", "What do I think of those
around me?" and "How do I interact with
them?"

Students worked on leadership action
plans which were to promote new ideas.
Working in groups they had to come up
with ideas and then develop plans to suc-
cessfully implement them. Questions on
ethics and prejudice were also discussed.

It was alot of fun and a great experi-
ence. We learned more about ourselves and
about each other exchanging ideas and lis-
tening to each other. Learning more effec-
tive methods of leadership, but, most im-
portantly we had a wonderful, enjoyable
time with friends.

The fans

The Petrel's had a wonderful season and
many thought they would go even further
than they did. They finished with a 20-6
record overall (including tournament play).
And a wonderful 12-6 record in conference.
This was possibly the best team we have
seen playing at O.U., and it's only gonna get
better.

entered the land of fairy tales.
Playing for both O.U. students and
children from local elementary
schools, "Thirteen Clocks" had
everything: princes and princesses,

The actmties tair gives prospectives many
options when they come to OU

Springfest is an annual event at Oglethorpe that
allows prospective students to get a glimpse of college
life. At Springfest the prospectives get to live in a
dormitory for a couple of days, eat the cafeteria food, go
to some of the fraternity parties and attend a college
class. The prospective students are also split up into
teams to compete with each other over the weekend in
different events. Also during Springfest were the annual
Stomp the Lawn concert and the Pla3miaker's production
of "Total Abandon" which allowed the prospectives to see
some of OU's talented thespians. Overall Springfest 1994
was a blast; bring on those prospectives next year.

INTRAMURAL SPORTS

Intramural sports
are much awaited times of
the year at Oglethorpe. It
gives everyone a chance to
run around and play some
of their favorite sports
with other groups here.
Intramural sports include
volleyball, softball,
basketball, and flag
football. It allows for
some fun competition and
allows you to strut your
stuff if you've got it or to
get some much needed
practice in if you don't.

STOMP THE LAWN III

"...down the Ho-Chi-Minh...turn right past the Hbrary ...up the hill you'l
find a big grassy field... you'll hear it. A bunch o' college students singin',
eatin' and screamin' and laughin' ... doin' their damndest to kill off the grass.
- complements of the Stomp the Lawn T'Shirt

Sure enough on Friday the 8th of April there
were all the students of OU singing, eating, scream-
ing and laughing doing their damndest to make full
use of a fantastic afternoon in the sun.

The perfect afternoon for laying out was made
even more perfect (let us assume) by the Battle of
the OU bands. There was great competition between
Whore, Black Abner and Harmonal Angst. However
it was Harmonal Angst who came out the victors.
The OU Dancers were also out their caught up in
the tide of spring fever.

As the evening wore on Michelle Malone,
Carey Long and Natalie Farr kept the students
rocking to the beat. While the OU cafeteria not
wanting to disrupt the wonderful setting served
dinner out on the quad. Making a very enjoyable
time of... killing off the grass.

It is the perfect day to work on that tan

OU TRACK

The OU Track Team at
Conference.

Michelle Ponte sprints off to help set the
new OU record for the 4x100 relay

Nathan winning the conference title in the
High Jump

Although getting off to a late start, O.U.'s track
team charged forward with enthusiasm and determina-
tion. This year's team, with thirteen new members,
made some incredible achievements. Personal records
were set weekly as athletes tested their strength and
courage against tough competition. Michelle John
attacked the hurdles. Kim Jackson, Melissa Drouin,
Mark Hannah and Jeff Marmash threw the Javelin like
Greek gods. Jayme Sellards, Tinnie Waterston, Jim
Bowling and Lucy MacGregor jumped to further and
further distances. Our distance men and women (Beau
Lyons, Will Corum, Katie Farrell, Stephenie Chaby, and
Linda Davis) circled the track endlessly.

Besides personal records many school records
were threatened and several were broken. Nathan
Briesemeister led the way with an outstanding high
jump of 6' 9" at the first meet. He went on to place first
at Conference with an injured hamstring and a height
of 6' 6". Alan Tudors smashed the 3000m steeplechase
record in his first attempt and ended with second place
at Conference. Katie Farrell led the women with three
new records in the 800m, 1500m, and 10,000m runs
and was named All-Conference. The women's 4x1 00m
relay team, consisting of Tinnie Waterston, Shelly
Robinson, Jim Jackson and Carol Chisom, also broke
the school record with ease.

They can boast that they are one of
the largest Greek fraternities on cam-
pus, with the addition of 13 pledges
as a result of Fall Rush. Brothers
agree the best moment was FINALLY
moving into their new house on Greek
row. To raise money for their many
social events and projects, the annual
"Rent-a-Delta Sig" was held. This
fraternity also found time to partici-
pate in Atlanta's Adopt- A- Highway
program, cleaning up the highways
twice each semester.

The Pledges of 1993

133

Definition of a Gentleman--- The forbearing use of power does not
only form a touchstone but the manner in which an individual enjoys
certain advantages over others is a test of a true gentleman. The power
which the strong have over the weak, the employer over the employed, the
educated over the unlettered, the experienced over the confiding, even the
clever over the silly-

The forbearing or inoffensive use of all this power or authority, or a total
abstinence from it when the case admits it, will show the gentleman in
plain light. The gentleman does not needlessly and unnecessarily remind
an offender of a wrong he may have committed against him. He cannot
only forgive, he can forget; and he strives for that nobleness of self and
mildness of character which impart sufficient strength to let the past be
but the past. A true man of honor feels humbled himself when he cannot
help humbling others.

Robert E. Lee
These are the ideals that Kappa Alpha holds themselves to and

CHI OMEGA SYMPHONY

"To live constantly above snobbery of word or deed; to
place scholarship before social obligations and char-
acter before appearance; to be, in the best sense,
democratic rather than 'exclusive,' and lovable rather
than 'popular'; to work earnestly, to speak kindly, to
act sincerely, to choose thoughtfidly that course which
occasion and conscience demand; to be womanly
always; to be discouraged never; in a word, to be loyal
under any and all circumstances to my Fraternity and
her highest teachings and to have her welfare ever at
heart that she may be a symphony of high purpose and
helpfulness in which there is no discordant note ."
- Ethel Swltzer Howard, 1909

Since the year 1987, Oglethorpe University has
heard the chant "Sigma Sigma Sigma." This is
because in its past six years ZZZ has grown in
numbers equivalent to that of Chi Omega. And
rest assured Tri-Sigma has made it known. This
year Sigma Sigma Sigma has carried on with their
annual Halloweenie Roast and Christmas parties.
Not only does Tri-Sigma recognize the need to
relax and enjoy themselves, but they also recog-
nize the necesssity to help others. Through both
time and monetary commitments, Tri-Sig tradi-
tionally aides the Robbie Page Memorial Hospital
in North Carolina. For these and many other
reasons Sigma Sigma Sigma has become a voice to
be heard on the campus of Oglethorpe University,
whether it be during intramurals or late at night
on Bid Day.

Alma Mater

Our dear Alma Mater,

to you we sing our praise.

Your gray stone and mortar

give strength for the coming days.

Then like the Petrel, feet near the ocean,

We'll rise through wind and rain.

Yes, Oglethorpe, you're here to remind us:

Nescit Cedere.

145

The room is dim; light gets smothered there.
The overhead flourescent lights only come on
when something small is lost keys, an i.d., or
quarters for laundry; even then, it's dark, be-
cause the loft throws shadows everywhere.
Next to the closet, the black bookcase stands-
-a little crooked. The books overflow along with
papers, pizza coupons, and plastic cups. The
closet door has always been off its hinges, and
is propped up waiting in the common room. A
mountain of dirty clothes spills out from the
closet. The floor is always covered with papers,
tissues, and torn-covered books, with over-
turned coffee mugs huddled around the coffee
maker. The brown recliner with leather all torn
up can't lean back. The red couch covers the
back wall under the window. It's in the best
condition of an5^hing in the room and hugs us
as we lie together on it on cold, rainy days, when
we leave the window open to listen to the rain
hitting the sidewalk.

Out past the quad of lights, where the trees
fight in the shadows against the buildings-
walk out by the security booth filled with a

146

sleepy student and the hum of the radio. To the
right of the entrance lit up on Peachtree is a
rumbled parting of the grass where cement
stones cut into the ground. The stadium glows
under the moon; the wind blows the flags above
the stadium, and they ruffle into the traffic.
Machinery sits in the corners of this basement,
and I find myself back in my childhood fears. I
find the tunnel leading to the stands and walk
out. As I slowly walk up the incline, the blinking
orange lights from the field house crawl up my
face. I turn around at the end of the runway,
face the stop of the stadium along the rim of
clouds and the moon. I climb up the stairs and
listen to the night sounds out on Peachtree
cars flying to Olympic and Red Dot, a girl
hanging out of the car window, screaming at
me. On the twenty- first step upward, I stop
climbing and sit down so the cold stone seeps
through my jeans. The woods loom like black
giants, hovering out behind it all. Out here, I
know this is my home.

THE ACCOUNTING CLUB

The Committee of the Accounting Club with their Advisor Dr Baker

Their activities are geared toward career development with social func-
tions intermixed. During the year, the club usually goes on field trips to two
"Big Six" accounting firms for a tour and a chance to meet accounting profes-
sionals. They also have fall and spring parties to meet recruiters and alumni in
a more social setting. During the spring, speakers from the Atlanta area come
to campus to talk with the accounting club about career plans, recruiting and
interviewing. Another career development activity is mock interviews. These
interviews are for rising seniors in preparing for the interview process. These
activities are beneficial to all accounting majors as they plan for careers in the

Dr Baker and Dr Middleton consider them-
selves the "father" and the "mother" of accounting
here at Oglethorpe. They take great pride in mak-
ing sure that through the Accounting Club all
accounting majors not only meet the academic
requirements but also learn the social skills they
will need upon graduation to get a job. Thus the
Accounting Club is a great asset to all the pro-
spective accountants here at Oglethorpe Univer-
sity.

Alpha Phi Omega is the
national co-ed service frater-
nity founded on the principles
of the Boy Scouts of America.
They provide service to the
campus, the community, and
to the nation as a whole as
well as their fellow brothers.
Friendship, Leadership, and
Service are their cardinal
principles. This year they
have had many successful
service projects including the
blood drive, special Olympics,
bowl for kids' sake, recycling
and clothes drives, and many
walk-a-thons. The Mu Mu
chapter of Alpha Phi Omega
was founded on Oglethorpe's
campus in 1958 and contin-
ues to be a strong and active
part of the school.

the hands of Lee Knippenberg. Not only has Alpha Psi
begun holding a regular performance each year, but its
members have become more involved in other activities
around campus, such as Oglethorpe' s Service Day.
And what about their performances? The production of
"Laughing Wild" was astonishing in its intensity.

Black Student Caucus

Some of the BSC's active members for the
'93-'94 academic year.

The 1993-1994 year was a
good one for Oglethorpe's
Black Student Caucus (the
BSC). Infused with new life by
an energetic group of
Freshmen, BSC hosted the
"Shake it 'til you Break it "
Dance Contest in the Fall that
was widely attended by the
whole campus. In the Spring
BSC held its annual bakesale
(always looked forward to by
our hungry faculty] , had
several movie nights, and
attended Freaknik '94
downtown. The BSC is looking
forward to presenting even
more great activities for all
Oglethorpe students in '94-'95.

Th O Club was re-established this
year by Junior and Senior athletes. The
organization hopes to promote athletic
support within the school and
community. Originally established as an
all male club in the 1920's, the O Club is
now open to men and women who have
lettered in two varsity sports.

The athletes that belong to the O
Club actively support all athletic teams in
the University, aid the athletic
department in recruitment and visitation,
and publicize events around the school.
After getting off to a slow start, the club is
now currently planning for a busy year in
1994.

Ask any member of OCF just
what they do in Oglethorpe Christian
Fellowship and you'll likely get a differ-
ent answer every time. Every Tuesday a
large group meeting is held with special
guest speakers and musicians. Also
during the week, smaller group Bible
studies are conducted, as well as prayer
meetings. Several members attended a
Fall Retreat in Covington, while others
opted to go to the University of Illinois
for a missions conference. These men
and women were part of a group of over
17,000 other students at this winter
outing. This summer, OCF members
will be in Panama City Beach for a time
of fun and fellowship.

Knippenberg, Shaunna Graf, Dr. Dean Tucker,

This year the O.U. Playmakers soared to new heights of excellence.

Shakespeare's "Lx)ve's Labour's Lost," the children's musical "Thirteen

Clocks," and Larry Atlas's "Total Abandon" proved that the Playmakers

were not only versatile but dedicated actors and actresses. However,

what the audience did not see during the rehearsals and performances

was just as entertaining. This was the year of forgetting one's entrance

due to diarhea. This was also the year of "Stomp the Baby," an "R" rated

Barney, and the lovely thigh slap. Quite a few quotes have been

immortalized as well, but no quote can compare with the proclamation:

"Your ass is mine, and I'm a lawnmower!"

In closing, the Playmakers would like to congratulate one of their

own on the occasion of her engagement and upcoming wedding:

Congrats, M.C.! We love you!

had an opportunity to hear various speakers, a podiatrist and an Air
Force health recruiter, just to name a few! At their annual Pre-Med
Banquet, four OU alumni told how the education they received here
helped get them through medical school and on to their present occupa-
tion.

The OU Chapter of SPS spon-
sored a wide range of successful
activities during this 3rd year since its
founding.

Ongoing chapter programs
include the SPS Faculty Lecture
Series, the SPS Sci -Fi movie series,
and regular showings of science
educational films. SPS annually
sponsors several of the most visible
OU "Geek Week" events, notable the
extraordinarily successful Paper
airplane and Popsicle-Stick Bridge
Building Contests. Other SPS activi-
ties included volunteer assistance to
admissions on visitation days, informal
chapter meetings, and assistance to
the Science Division. SPS also in-
ducted members into im. the national
physics honor society operated by SPS.
SPS played an important role in the
university's Fall 1993 Cosmology
Lecture Series.

SPS was awarded the 1993-94
OU Dean's Award in recognition of
SPS's high level of activity as a campus
organization. The chapter was also
named a national "Outstanding Chap-
ter".

Advisors: Bill Brightman, Linda Bucki, Robert Drake.

1993-94 has been a year of
changes for the staff and readers of
the school newspaper, the Stormy Pe-
trel. An updated format was intro-
duced with a broader range of stories.
The staff worked diligently to get the
paper out on time, without sacrificing
the quality. Included was more room
for editorials, giving a voice for many
opinions. Staff members also present-
ed both on and off campus events,
keeping everyone informed. With such
a large staff, every person had to con-
tribute to the finished product. Their
hard work is evident on all the pages
of the Stormy Petrel.

Editor-in-chief Ryan Queen glares at the
camera for distracting him as he edits the
next issue of the newspaper.

"Sweet rose, fairjlower. untimely plucked, soonfaded-
Plucked in the bud and faded in the spring:
Bright orient pearl alack, too timely shaded;
Fair creature, killed too soon by death's sharp sting.
Like a green plum that hangs upon a tree
And falls through wind before the fall should be."
-William Shakespeare

"Crabbed age and youth cannot live together:
Youth is full ofpleasance, age is full of care;
Youth like summer morn, age like winter weather;
Youth like summer brave, age like winter bare.
Youth is full of sport, age's breath is short..
Youth is nimble, age is lame.
Youth is hot and bold, age is weak and cold.
Youth is wild and age is time.
Age, I do abhor thee; youth, I do adore thee.

my love, my love is young.
Age, I do defy thee. sweet shepherd, hie thee.

For methinks thou stay'st too long. "

-William Shakespeare
