None of my previous roles could match the physical and emotional demands that came with this role. When I first heard that the Theatre department had Othello on the schedule for the upcoming year, I said the part would be mine. I began to prepare myself physically and emotionally about nine months before auditions. During the summer I studied the play intensely, trying different facial expressions as I became more familiar with the script. Some people thought Othello would be too big of a challenge because of my hectic schedule and the responsibility of such a major part. But I could not wait for the opportunity to audition for the role of my lifetime. However, close to the end of the summer semester I began to suffer blackouts. Before I knew what happened I was rushed to Crawford Long Hospital in Atlanta. The next morning I was prepped for open-heart surgery. Many people questioned whether or not I would make it back to school for the following semester. However, by the grace of God I lived to see another day and healed faster than anyone expected. After three weeks I was once again gracing the halls of Piedmont College. After returning to school my goal was to audition for the role of Othello. I got the part. I had no idea that not only was I transforming into Othello on stage, but everything I did in my personal life became Othello as well. I began to question love, trust, honor, pride, hate and humanity as a whole. Professor Travis Smith (director and designer) was very inspirational because even when I was frustrated with the role and myself he still believed in me. He coached me through just as an athletic coach does with his players and for that I really thank him. le .i-s Montana The fight ua> choreographed h\ Blane K.\le.

Spring Break is always rul of surprises: making new friends and renewing oM relationships. Who knows what went on with these todies? A JO*Q*Cm*20Q3 Spring Break in North Georgia is something that happens when a practically free trip to Hilton Head is cancelled at the last minute. Hope Morris and I. Darlene Wyant, were put in this unfortunate predicament a couple of days before Spring Break began. Not wanting to spend the break in a bored stupor, we decided to try to do as many activities as pos- sible for as little money as possible. Just to make the adventure a little more interesting we had some friends write challenges for us to do throughout the week. We had them fold up the challenges and place them in an en- velope and we were to open a new one every day. Then we chose our destina- tions. By the end of the week we had achieved our goals. In only five days we went horseback riding, picnicking at Lake Lanier, hiking, had a movie day, visited Helen, Anna Ruby Falls and the Indian Mound, and played a new form of Scrabble. All of this was done for under $40, less than we would have spent going to Hilton Head even though ac- commodations there were very cheap. Our friends' challenges turned out to be interesting as well. While in Helen we had to get a guy to jump on one foot while picking his nose and singing Tm a little tea- pot." We were able to talk the first guy we asked into doing it! One challenge that re- sulted in an interesting find was that we had to get two people on film who knew what NATO stands for. We interviewed every person who walked by our picnic area at Lake Lanier and only one person knew what it stood for. Among other in- teresting chal- lenges we each had to take our picture with a cow. The week might not have been a trip to the beach or a big party with a lot of friends, but for me it was even better. It was an opportunity to spend time with my best friend and have our re- lationship grow. At the beginning of the week we bought scrap- books. We tried to take as many pictures as pos- sible so we could place them in the scrapbook and make a record of our Spring Break. I guess at the beginning of the week I didn't realize that this Spring Break would be something I could never forget. by Darlene \Jq.inl QQMg OMMfcM*" Wes Plemmons swings away Second baseman Daniel Young backs up shortstop Wes Crow as he attempts to make an out Ian McMaster makes an out by catching a foul pop fly- Stuart Lancaster and Steve Kindregan help prepare the baseball field before a game by watering the infield to make it soft and prevent bad hops Head Coach Jim Peeples offers words of advice during a team huddle Ian McMaster looks for the pitching sign from his coach ^^H ^^r W ' ^gf A' ^- ^ v^^^^^^H^i sfe^/j^^J^* ^ ^ .^ ^^s ^f 12 QMarch 2003 Front Row (L-R): Walker Searcy Jeff Dorns Steve Kindregon Steven Foster.

Piedmont's art depart- ment had an amazing time visiting the Big Apple. New York City never sleeps and neither did we. I, along with a Bt/ 5wToh Bae* handful of others, found many ways to exploit the short time we had in the city. From bar hopping to auditions to a Broadway show (oh, and throw in a few museums), we definitely had an amazing few days. Airport security was, of course, a nightmare. And the paranoia was almost funny. Nonetheless, flying was the way to go. Once there, we stayed in a tiny hotel off Broadway. And I mean tiny. Four of us could fit in the elevator if committed to groping each other uninten- tionally. All of this adds to the ambi- ance and excitment of New York. The trip, focusing on the huge amount of art we could view in four days, was amazing. When I "grow up" I want to move to New York and try my hand at acting. After all, theatre is my passion and the art department lets me express myself as a photographer. I am just glad I got to be a part of a trip that took me where I want to always be. 20 April 2003 Fifm Ctob Jeremy Miller helps Film Club leaders prepare for Film Games Night in the Student Center:(L-R) Jeremy Miller, Ben Myers, Tommy Ross and Patrick Young.

Here students are removing the top layer of dirt in marked off squares. In the summer of 2003 seven Piedmont students and Dr. AlPlevsi.ec traveled to St. Petersburg, Russia. From there thev took a tvVo - day journey by train on the Trans Siberian Railroad to an archeological site in the Ural region of Siberia. Af~ tec they returned to St. Pe- tersburg, the students spent a vVeek touring the historic sites of the former capital city of tsarist Russia. The tours included the Winter Palace (the Hermitage), Fyodor Dostoievsky's home, The Peterhof, Peter and Paul Fortress, the Bronze Horse- man along the Neva River, and several Russian Ortho- dox cathedrals. In the eve- nings they attended the cir- cus and the Russian Ballet. In preparation for the trip, the students completed a course on the history of Russiaand the Soviet Union that was taught by the his- tory faculty at Piedmont College. DOWNTIME In the afternoon, students took a break from their activities and played cards at their campsite. STAYING WARM In the evening students gathered around the camp- fire to sing songs, watch the flames and talk about their experiences that day. 26 ( June 2003 THE CATHEDRAL OF ST. PETER AND ST.

Monday through Friday, Margie Fry can be seen leaving her home on Pine Stree "just a ways from the post office" with her husband. For 35 years she has served breakfast and lunch to Piedmont students, faculty and staff. Dur- ing those years, Fry has seen many students come and go. and though she misses the old faces, getting to know the next class of students is something she loves. As the mother of six children, three boys and three girls. Fry knows what it takes to cook for a large number of people. Food is essential to life, but when you are in college, a meal needs to be an unwinding, enjoyable expe- rience. When each da) pulses with deadlines, homework and demanding professors, mealtime can become an anticipated ritual. We all have things in our life we get used to. from the w a\ OUT sandvt iches are cul to the amount of sprinkles we put on our ice cream to the familiar face ol a best friend, and for Piedmont students, somewhere in the middle of all thai is I in gh ing us ample portions ol eggs and bacon to complement bet "good morning" smile. She has lived in the area most of her life ami one <>i bet grandaughters attended Pied- mont. Mar> li> graduated in 1993 with a degree in earl) childhood edu- cation Mar) oeversavt her grand- mother in the cafeteria though. If she was not in class, she was working, proving to be just as dedicated as her grandmother. According to Fr) . > oung adults are not ruder toda) than the} were 35 \ears ago. I be) are just hun- grier. Interesting!) enough, men and women are eating more sal- ads. In addition to cooking break- fast. Frj is also in charge ol the salad bar. And she is \er> proud Ol her salad bar. Young people are just as polite as the) were when she first started working here: onl\ certain areas o\ fashion have changed drasti- cally. Normal dress for a man was B suit and tie; women wore hose and heels. Pajamas were worn onl\ where the) are meant to be worn and bra straps were not con sidered a displayable accessor). Ir\ just laughs at all ol this and points out that \oung people will t.U) as the\ please and no harm is meant In it. Her da) at Piedmont ends after lunch and bet husband is always on tune to pick hei up. She admits to making him wait ever) new and then while she talks \\ hen she is through, l is joins ha bus band and the) gO home I r) has nevet learned how to drive. . . - . 66* Other 2003 7t*? wujawem ^>u.

Ray Cleere When graduates return to Piedmont during homecoming or Alumni Weekend each year, they are always interested in seeing the new buildings and comparing the campus of today with the campus that they remember. Frequently HI hear snatches of conversation that start off with "I remember when that building went up" or "We were the first ones to hold classes in that hall." For those of you who are students this year, you'll have plenty to talk about when your own reunion time rolls around. (And it will come sooner than you think!) Piedmont this year is undergoing a mini building boom, with construction or renovation of several major buildings underway as I write this. At the start of the fall semester, the college opened a new wing for the Center for Worship and Music. In addition to classrooms and practice rooms for the music department, the wing includes Brooks Hall, a recital and practice room for the college's music ensembles. In early 2003 Piedmont also rededicated the chapel in the Center for Worship and Music The centerpiece of the building's complete renovation includes the installation of the Sewell Pipe Organ, built by Casavant Freres of Montreal. With more than 3,600 pipes and a mechanical-action keyboard, the organ provides our music students access to one of the premier organs in the Southeast. World-renowned performers have also treated the community's music lovers to a series of organ concerts. The Center for Worship and Music is now home to Covenant Congregational Church, which was organized by the college chaplain, the Rev. Ashley Cook, in 2003. The church is growing into a vibrant part of the northeast Georgia community and also serves as a teaching church for students interested in the ministry or church music. Two major construction projects also got under way on campus in the fall. Work began on Mayflower Hall, a 60-student resident hall, the third new dorm to open in five years. The hall is located next to the Johnny Mize Athletic Center and Baseball Museum, which opened in 2001. Also near the Mize Center, construction is under way on the Loudemnilk Baseball Complex, which will feature a 1930's style baseball stadium and indoor practice facilities. Two other projects completed this year will the renovation of the Nelms House as the new President's Home and the landscaping of Chapel Alley to provide a beautiful entrance to the north campus. I hope that when you return to campus one day (soon!) you'll look at these additions and proudly tell your friends, "I was here when they built that!" 's&ettr2Q0 Delene W.
