ntroduction

College is not only about retaining information and

taking tests. It is about expanding the mind to think more

openly without judgment, discovering new t hincjs ai u I

exploring new possibilities that create the art inspired by

your dreams. College is an experience to grow and increase

your knowledge. Thus I chose the theme of the hook, Create

Discover Learn.

FORWARD

When I took over the magazine i wasn't really sure what
to expect. I inherited a magazine that had been the
recipien t of many awards, so I knew I had some big shoes
to fill. I assembled a team of writers and creative minds
that I thought would best serve what I had in mind. We
got together and came up with an idea to bring a new,
fresh face to Piedmon t It exemplifies the angles of
stories and issues that may not be already covered. We

search for topics that
aren't mentioned a
whole lot. We have
tried to create a
following through
our work. We love
the responses from
the readers both
positive and negative.

Going to the University of Nottingham was one of the best
experiences I have had during college. Just to be able to see all
these different cultures and people in one place was amazing.
It just felt like everything was more laid back there. There
was also the ease of traveling, which was wonderful. To be
able to get on a bus and in a few hours be at a place you had

\neverbeen before was awesome.
\Going to class was also an experience,
attended some classes that had
nore than 100 people while others
had less than 20. There were so
many choices of classes and they all
seemed interesting. Most of all I will
'ememberall the memories I have
x from going and if! had the chance I
would do it again.

Going to the University of Nottingham was the most
mind opening experience I had. I met people I would
have never met without taking part in this experience.
I was able, through my international friends, to learn
about and take part in cultures from around the globe.
The people I met were the real experience. The country
of England is beautiful, but it is the people that I truly
miss.Everypersonlmethada unique impact on my life
that I will never forget.

Costa Rica was one of the

life. I met people from all

made lifelong friends! The
country was beautiful and
the teachers were so kind!
They were patient and used
a variety of methods to
make learning fun and easy.

I plan on going back this
May to study again and also
to do an internship. I look
forward to getting another
opportunity to travel the
country and appreciate the
rare beauty that can only be
found there.

j resident's Letter

What will you remember about Piedmont?

When you look back at this yearbook in a fewyears,
what will you remember about your experience at
Piedmont College?

Will it be memories of waking early in your dorm
room and walking across the Demorest campus to that
8 a.m. English class?

Or will it be memories of fighting 5 o'clock traffic in
Athens to make it in time to your four-hour MBA. class?

Or maybe, if you were enrolled in one of the many
graduate education cohort classes,your memories of
Piedmont will center on your own local school where you
took classes with a group of fellow teachers.

One thing is certain, memories of Piedmont will be
different for different groups of students. That is because
Piedmont has been redefined in recent years. We are
still the small, liberal arts college in the mountains
that perhaps your parents and grandparents knew, but we are more than that. Even at the
Demorest campus, the curriculum has changed dramatically with the addition of exciting
new programs in theatre, mass communications, and nursing, just to name a few.

At the Athens campus, all students commute, and the emphasis is on career-oriented
majors primarily in business, education and criminal justice.

But no matter which "version" of Piedmont you remember, I know thatyou will all have
common memories of our unusually strong faculty; those "Aha!" moments in the classroom
when a difficult concept suddenly becomes clear; and the time when you first realize that
you as an individual and as a college graduate can have an enormous effect on the lives of
others.

Those are the memories that I hope each of you take away from Piedmont College.
Those are the memories that count.
