The President's Message
by James E. Walter
My warmhearted congratulations to the Class of 1977! You are
graduating in one of the greatest academic years of the entire 80 years
of Piedmont College's history.
Student enrollment in the Fall Quarter of the academic year 1976-77
reached a historic high of 440. Even more importantly, the excellent
quality of the entering students enabled our faculty to hold fast to the
traditionally high levels of collegiate learning, cultural advantages, and
religious standards.
The Fall term also began with the gratifying assurance that the Georgia
State Board of Education Programs at Piedmont College for another
five years, the longest period of approval granted to any college or un-
iversity program of teacher education in our state.
Coupled with this good academic news is the remembrance of our
qualifying in December 1975 for the reaffirmation of accreditation of
Piedmont College by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools
for another ten years. Each June as I award, on behalf of the Trustees
and Faculty of Piedmont College your well-earned diplomas, inscribed
with the degrees of Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science, it is
profoundly inspiring to realize that every Piedmont College degree is
equivalent in value and importance to every baccalaureate degree in
the nation. It is a degree of which you can be justly proud.
Among the high points of 1977 was the reinstitution of women's in-
terscholastic basketball after an interim period of 26 years! The "Lady
Lions'' promptly won their first game in November against a much
taller team from Georgia Tech in Atlanta, and continued the season
with flying colors.
During your undergraduate days at Piedmont College, also, for the first
time a national honorary society was inaugurated at Piedmont College,
the Alpha Chi National Scholarship Honor Society. This society grants
charters to institutions of higher learning whose work is primarily
academic in nature, which are fully accredited by regional accrediting
associations, and which meet other Alpha Chi requirements. Piedmont
College holds the proud distinction of being the fifth institution of
higher learning in the State of Georgia to be granted a chapter in this
national honor society. Under the leadership of Dr. Mary L. Griggs, the
society has already become a vital part of Piedmont College life.
Finally, our academic progress, our scholarship program, and our work-
aid opportunities for every industrious young person who desires and
can profit from a college education will be continued in the future. The
campaign goals of the past three years for Piedmont College Endown-
ment Funds were successfully reached during the Christmas Season of
1976. The Spring Piedmont College Bulletin carried the following
message of gratitude and joy to supporting friends everywhere.
Eureka! The Christmas mail put our Endownment Fund Cam-
paign over the top of the $1,500,000 goal, thereby matching on a
two-for-one basis the generous gift of $750,000.00 from our
Anonymous Friend. I am deeply grateful to God and to every
donor who had a part in this beautiful miracle for our College.
Together we have achieved a new strong vote of confidence in
our work of Christian education. These permanent endowment
funds will produce essential income throughout the future for
the enrichment of young people who seek to "know the truth,"
the truth that shall make them free.
I am especially grateful to our Anonymous Friend who
volunteered this thrilling gift with a challenge opportunity for
all of us. His gracious and generous spirit made it a joy to invite
trustees, faculty members, alumni, students, churches, and
friends everywhere to share in the present and future of Pied-
mont College with a gift, pledge, annuity, or a statement in a
legal Will. Women and men throughout the land have carried
this important project on their hearts and in their daily prayers.
They themselves have given from their own tithes and
benevolences, talked with their neighbors and relatives, and re-
joiced with us in our achievements along the way. "Praise God
from Whom all blessings flow."
Some friends made direct gifts from their savings or capital
stocks for scholarship and work-aid trusts in the name of a loved
one. Others gave Book-of-the-Year units of $150 to provide new
volumes annually in memory of a friend or family. Others wrote
me of their plans for Piedmont College, as stated in their Will.
Together we made it to the top of a new challenge. We press on
to more mountain peaks of excellence in faith and gratitude to
God.
"Blessed be the name of the LORD.''

Many students at Piedmont College work to finance
their education. This page is dedicated to these students.
Their work is done in various places around the college
such as offices, the library, the dining hall and many
other areas. The 1977 Yonahian staff would like to thank
Dr. Walter for his generous donation for this page.

Epilogue
.-:. X^***-' '
year of new events! Many new faces and old ones, also. The largest Freshman class in the history of Piedmont. The
girls' dorm saw three times as many girls as in the past few years. The sports of Piedmont saw a new dimension: Girls
Basketball! The Boys Basketball Team came within one game of going to the National tournaments in Kansas City.
My congratulations go to the team and Coach Cave for bringing this honor to Piedmont. The cheerleaders had men
cheerleaders for the first time. New faculty members came to Piedmont. We had students from around the world-flui
Japanese friends. JMfl ^^^H
This yearbook is a compiliation of these events. My thanks go to Martha Kelly and Ross Henderson, our
company representative. With their help and support we have put together these events for your enjoyment. I hope
u enjoy it.
