HE basic document for the establishment of an 
I arsenal in Augusta is a letter, dated March 9, 
1793, filed in the archives of the State of 
Georgia, from President George Washington's 
Secretary of War, in which it was directed that "an 
arsenal be established with a stand of two thousand 
arms for protection" against the Indians. 

A log fort had been built in 1735, immediately 
after a handful of people had pulled their pirogues 
up the slick sides of the blue Savannah River at the 
present site of St. Paul's Episcopal Church. The first 
fortification had been called Fort Augusta. 

However, after several battles during the Revolu- 
tionary War, the old fort was destroyed. When, after 
the Treaty of Paris in 1783, the United States of 
America began to feel the growing pains of a free 
and independent country, it became necessary to 
construct permanent fortifications, Augusta Arsenal 
was one of the first to be built. 

As the city was growing so rapidly, it was consid- 
ered desirable to move the guns and other equipment 
for protection to a site several miles northwest of the 
old fort (but still on the Savannah River), the location 
selected being the place where the Sibley Mills now 
stand. The property there was approximately 48- 
14/16 acres. 

The new site was given the name Augusta Arsenal 
and by 1819 many buildings had been erected, at a 
cost of $163,905.45, and a detachment of thirty en- 
listed men, two lieutenants and a surgeon, all under 
the command of Captain Matthew M. Payne, Corps 
of Artillery, were assigned to duty there. 

The next year an epidemic of swamp, or yellow 
fever wiped out the entire garrison. Twenty-three of 
the enlisted men, one lieutenant and the surgeon 
were buried in the Arsenal enclosure. The other lieu- 
tenant and the remaining seven enlisted men were 
moved to a camp near Milledge Spring and died 
there. Captain Payne alone survived. He was visiting 
the Walkers at their summer place called Bellevue.

HE death of the garrison resulted in the mov- 
ing and rebuilding of the arsenal buildings 
on the present site of Augusta College. The 
70-acre tract was bought by Act of Congress, 
dated May 26, 1826, from Freeman Walker. The 
land was part of the Bellevue tract in the village of 
Summerville. One acre was excluded as a "grave- 
yard for the Walker family." The Government paid 
$6,000.00 and received a deed dated November 9, 
1826. There were two houses on the land, one called 
Bellevue (which is still standing), and the other build- 
ing was marked on a plat as "Mrs. Walker's house," 
but no reference as to which Mrs. Walker. 

After the purchase of the Walker site, some of the 
arsenal buildings were moved from the Savannah 
River place, and other new buildings were con- 
structed. Initially the buildings moved and rebuilt, as 
well as some new additions, were: Headquarters (now 
the Administration building), two "magnificent sets of 
officer's quarters," a barracks building, and a con- 
necting thick brick loopholed wall. The loopholes were 
to be used in the event of attack by invaders. There 
was an arched sally port under the middle of the 
Headquarters buildi.ig; heavy wooden gates per- 
mitted access to the enclosure within the brick wall, 
and a wooden picket fence was set all around the 
place as a boundary. Water was supplied from a 
deep well. Years later a wooden-pipe line for sewer 
and water was laid and connected to Augusta's sys- 
tem. When the old wooden pipes were dug up to 
make way for the modern supply lines, workmen 
found unidentified human bones. The bones were 
buried in the military cemetery and marked "Un- 
known." 

During the first several decades of the Nineteenth 
century, soldiers from the arsenal, with members of 
the "Richmond Blues," a local home guard, fought 
against the enemy in the Seminole and Creek In dian 
wars to the south. In addition to training fighting 
men, the arsenal stored, repaired and cleaned guns 
and issued supplies to troops, including Charleston 
Depot, Mount Vernon and Apalachicola arsenals, 
Gary's Ferry Depot, and the Ordnance at Tampa Bay. 





mm'-f^ 





I^H ARLY in 1844, a young lieutenant who had 
Injj "imbibed too freely of spiritous liquors" and 
I^^V behaved in such a manner as to bring "dis- 
"^^* credit to the uniform of the United States 
Army," was imprisoned in a dungeon under the 
Headquarters building. A letter was sent to Wash- 
ington, D.C. requesting "disposition" of the young 
man. Washington officials sent Lieutenant William 
Tecumseh Sherman, of the Corps of Artillery, on the 
delicate diplomatic mission to Augusta with orders 
to handle the situation for "the good of the Army." 
Sherman came, captured the admiration of Augustans, 
was entertained extensively by them, and stayed six 
months. When he left, he took the young lieutenant 
with him. 

The first recorded ghost seems to have arrived 
soon after Sherman's departure. He was a young 
man whose uncle (the arsenal commander) had em- 
ployed him as a clerk at the "unheard of salary of 
$2.00 per day." The young clerk had been on his 
new job but a short time when he was "killed by a 
cowardly assassin" and was buried in the Walker 
cemetery. Legend has it that the young man had 
hoped that the family would have "deep apple pie" 
for dinner. He was shot to death on his way home. 
His ghost prowled the commander's quarters, open- 
ing oven and food pantry doors in search of pie! 
Two other ghosts, a lady and a former soldier, moved 
in later and were still around not too long ago. 

Transportation was by horse and mule. Walton 
Way was laid with heavy planks from Fifteenth 
Street up to Summerville. It was called a toll turnpike, 
for the use of which the arsenal paid $76.00 a year. 



That was in 1849 when the arsenal hired slaves as 
"hostlers" at $1.00 a day. The superintendent of the 
guards was paid $1.25 a day. 

But as the restless days preceding the Civil War 
approached, even small things seemed of great 
moment, according to reports. For instance, much 
was made of the fact that the commanding officer's 
cookstove had worn out. After considerable cor- 
respondence, a new stove was bought and installed. 





0N September, 1860, the Mayor and Common 
Council of Augusta passed a resolution re- 
questing that a sufficient force be stationed 
at the arsenal for the protection of the arms 
stored there. The Secretary of War had sent 22,000 
muskets and rifles to the arsenal "in pursuance of 
his policy to fill the southern arsenals with large 
quantities of arms and ammunition." 

Accordingly, in October, Company E, Second Ar- 
tillery, under command of Captain Arnold Elzey, 
came to the arsenal with a lieutenant and eighty- 
two enlisted men. It was Captain Elzey who sur- 
rendered the arsenal to the Confederate Army Colonel 
W. H. Walker, after Georgia seceded from the 
Union. 

Early in 1861, a large brick building was con- 
structed near the eastern boundary. It was used as 
foundry, machine shops and storehouse. During the 
Civil War, part of the building was used as a hospital, 
part as a blacksmith shop, a tin shop and a harness 
shop and equipment department for field artillery. 
Lieutenant-Colonel W. G. Gill was the first Confed- 
erate commander. He was a graduate of the U.S. 
Military Academy at West Point, class of 1848. He 
died June 7, 1862, and was succeeded by Lt. Col. 
George W. Rains. 

Under the direction of Col. Rains, a powder works 
was built on the old arsenal site. It was rated as the 
second largest in the world and supplied all powder 
and ammunition to the Confederate armies. All that 
now remains of it is an obelisk chimney 1 15 feet tall. 
Upon the approach of Sherman's army, the powder 
works and machine shops were dismantled and sent 
to Columbia, S.C., but were returned to the arsenal 
and put back into use when it was found that Sher- 
man had by-passed Augusta.

0URING the Civil War period, the arsenal man- 
ufactured (among other items): 174 gun car- 
riages; 115 caissons; 343 limbers; 110 guns 
(mostly bronze 12-pounder); 21 battery wag- 
ons; 10,575 powder boxes (for gun-powder, of 
course!); 73,521 horse shoes; 3455 saddles; 2535 sets 
of harness; 2477 signal rockets; 85,800 rounds of 
fixed ammunition; 136,642 cartridge bags (women 
made these); 200,113 time fuses; 476,207 pounds of 
projectiles; 4,580,000 buck shot; 4,626,000 lead 
balls; and 10,760,000 cartridges for small arms. 

When the war ended, the arsenal was surrendered 
by the Confederates to Brigadier General Emery 
Upton, U.S. Army, after which United States Army 
troops again occupied the arsenal. Colonel D. W. 
Flagler, of the Ordnance Department, was ordered 
to command. It was he who designed the famous 
sundial, a replica of which now stands in the garden 
to the rear of the Headquarters building. 

The records do not show any exciting activity at 
the arsenal during the period of Reconstruction. A 
double brick cottage was built for married enlisted 
men in 1872 and several other buildings still stand- 
ing. The old arsenal site and the powder works were 
given by the Government to the Freedmen's Bureau 
but later sold by them to the City of Augusta for 
approximately $42,000.00. 

Although in 1874 the commanding officer of the 
arsenal. Captain R. M. Hill, reported that the value 
of the arsenal's land and buildings was approxi- 
mately $305,200.00; that Augusta, with a popula- 
tion of 20,000, was considered by Washington 
officials to be an excellent location for an arsenal, it 
was just a few years later that Congress, in discussing 
appropriations for the fiscal year ending June 30, 
1885, inserted a clause in the appropriation bill for 




sundry civil expenses, to sell Augusta Arsenal. This 
was agreed to by the House, but the Senate refused 
to assent, so the bill failed to become a law and the 
arsenal remained a storage and repair point for 
ordnance equipment. 

At the turn of the twentieth century the arsenal 
became quite active. In addition to repair and stor- 
age, it manufactured large quantities of cavalry 
equipment and seacoast targets and served the en- 
tire South Atlantic District. 







EM ORESHADOWING World War I, activity in- 
.1 creased rapidly. Colonel J. Walker Benet was 
iM commander and had the heavy responsibility 
of expanding the arsenal to serve the troops. 
He set up new departments, trained additional per- 
sonnel, and leased land on the Georgia Railroad 
where warehouses were built. It was during this 
period that Stephen Vincent Benet, who later became 
famous, was writing prose and poetry in the house 
now occupied by the president of Augusta College. 

Following World War I, and during the great de- 
pression hundreds of unemployed persons were given 
work assignments at the arsenal through the Works 
Progress Administration. Buildings were painted, 
roads repaired and paved, grounds dug up, graded 
and replanted. 

When the dark clouds of World War 11 began to 
gather, new buildings mushroomed. Approximately 
fifty were erected, bringing the total to 101 buildings 
valued at $100,000,000.00 Thousands of persons 
were trained, civilian and military, in new occupa- 
tions. At the peak of the war there were 2152 civilians 
employed and the arsenal was operating on a 24- 
hour, daily, 3-shift basis. 

Material was shipped abroad under lease-lend 
agreements. The arsenal's mission included main- 
tenance, overhaul, manufacture and storage of 
ordinance. The optical and fire-control section re- 
paired intricately-wired director systems similar to 
present day computers. It occupied an entire four- 
story building and the upper floor of another large 
brick building. Coating of optics to reduce reflection 
and intensify light transmission, which was a new 
and interesting development in science, was accom- 
plished here. 

After more than a century and a half of continuous 
service, the arsenal finally bowed to the advancing 
age of space. Once considered a large arsenal, in 
1955 it was considered too small to be of effectual 
use to the United States, and it was closed. Even be- 
fore the government-owned property was removed 
from buildings, influential citizens of Augusta were 
taking steps to acquire the site and buildings for 
Augusta College. They were successful; the college 
occupied the site in 1957.

0he walls of the fort are still sturdy, but they 
surround a peaceful garden for displays of 
academic life. The building that once housed 
designers of weapons now houses interpreters of 
music and teachers of art. 

The transition took almost one hundred and thirty 
years, but it came abruptly in 1957 when the Army 
relinquished the arsenal to the county, then to the 
State of Georgia for the expanding junior college. 
Within seven years, Augusta College grew into a 
senior institution of the University System of Georgia. 

The junior college already had a tradition of 
performance and achievement dating from 1925, 
but the expansion of the community and the state and 
the demands for higher education resulted in the 
Board of Regents in 1963 authorizing Augusta Col- 
lege to grant the Bachelor of Arts, the Bachelor of 
Science, and the Bachelor of Business Administration 
degrees. 

It was now up to the people of the state. Through 
their elected officials, they responded immediately 
and $1,500,000 was granted. The already sturdy 
buildings that once housed machines for the manu- 
facture of weapons were converted into classrooms, 
laboratories, and a library. 

Every year the face of Augusta College changes 
sometimes slowly, sometimes rapidly. The classrooms 
and laboratories provide the method for improvement 
of the mind. The library is a place for the hard 
work of intense concentration and study. The social 
realm gives us an outlet and a chance for close rela- 
tionshipsall forming a special purpose. 

This, integrated with the pride of the best of a 
heritage steeped in history, is Augusta College today. 




17 











Those who have been a part of Augusta 

College for numerous years look back at the 

cracked mortar, the crumbling bricks, the 

Civil and World War relics, and the 

chipped, faded paint with a touch of 

nostalgia. A few steps ahead our hearts fill 

with pride as stately brick buildings rise 

from the ground, expansive tennis courts 

are laid, and parking lots are shaved out of 

once-wooded lawns. AC continues to 

achieve a more advanced and varied 

academic program to meet the vast 

demands of higher education. 



f>^f^

20 





The mechanics of education endeavor to 
inflict an order upon the kaleidoscopic pattern 
of life at college. The imposition of labs, 
seminars, lectures, and homework is a rigid one, 
demanding much. The AC students are faced 
with continuous demands of competition and 
achievement. We experience the despair and 
frustration that accompany the learning 
process, the suffocating bitterness of doubt, the 
anguish of life's harsh realities, the victory of 
having reached a goal, the strength of an exciting 
young ideal, and the utter awareness that is 
knowledge. 



21 





This is a place where we spend so brief 
apart of our life. Perhaps we have come 
here with no definite quest. Yet as Augusta 
College reaches a new plateau of 
development, we may strive to realize our 
individual dreams. As self-knowledge is 
the filfillment of life, we become anxious to 
venture into the vary midst of this surging 
stream. We begin to wonder just who 
we are. Moments of joy, disappointment, 
and success combine into past, the present, 
and give rise to the future. The brief 
moments of life are so urgent, each a 
fragmentary glimpse of immortality.

Individually and collectively we are by 

nature progressive. We seem to be striving 

continuously to find our place in society. We 

long for a brief interim when we can be at 

peace with ourselves. We are confused and 

struggling, yet excited. We could betray 

ourselves by being allowed to be molded into 

a pattern, to lose ourselves in the crowd, and. 

therefore, destory the very essence of our 

being. Yet, something pulls us apart from the 

turbulence, and we begin to embrace all the 

characteristics which have been suspended 

from our physical being. There is a painful 

ecsiacy as the inner depth evolves giving birth 

to individuality.

A new spirit is finding way into the 
Augusta College campus. Its radiance pays 
tribute to our glorious past, illumines the 
present, and endeavors to make the future 
even more dynamic. It is evident that this 
spirit plays a vital part in every phase of 
our educational development. Inspired by 
our heritage, we take great pride in the 
growth and aspirations of A C today. We 
are in love with life, devoted to living. The 
boldness of our age may frighten others. 
But through the unique expression of our 
enthusiasm, we infuse a part of ourselves to 
the honor of those before us, creating a true, 
living spirit. 

27 



This year is a time dijferent from preceding 

years, yet strangely similar. We discover new 

ideas, new knowledge through expanded 

curriculum. Rendering service vital to campus 

life, we attain new honors through organizations. 

We reach new heights oj physical prowess and 

new glory through our athletic program. However, 

.Augusta College is faced with the complex 

problems of a growing institution. While it must 

be designed for educational, economic, esthetic, 

and cultural value, it must also be a source of 

pride to the people of the community as a center 

of their growth and aspirations. 

To meet these needs and aspirations, we 

incorporate our proud heritage with hard work 

and a spirit of sincere dedication. Emerging 

from all this are the makers of tomorrow  

our student leaders.

LIBRARY

Library Enables Thought 
and Provides Quiet Spot 



Clarence Day, Jr. has said, "The world of books  is 
the most remarkable creation of man  nothing else that 
he builds ever lasts  monuments fall  nations perish  
civilizations grow old and die out  often in an era of 
darkness new races build others  but in the world of 
books are volumes that live on  still as young and fresh 
as the day they were written  still telling man's hearts 
of the hearts of man centuries dead." 

How can a student on campus broaden his knowledge 
if he doesn't have books? Augusta College takes pride in 
its library which offers a wide selection of books on any 
subject matter. To meet the requirements of a senior 
institution, the library must possess a certain number of 
volumes. Augusta College has met this obligation and 
each month enlarges its stock with the arrival of a new 
shipment of books. This growth is typical of the AC cam- 
pus today. It is not only beneficial to the students but to 
the faculty as well. 

The library opens new perspectives of learning reveal- 
ing the worlds of literature from Shakespeare to Stein- 
beck and O'Neill. However, it is not only a place of 
learning and concentration, but a place where all students 
can relax in the quiet surroundings or with their 
favorite magazines.

FORT GORDON CENTER 



Gordon Center Offers a 
Full Credit Curriculum 



It is a mark of the progressive college, concerned with 
relevance to mankind's need, that it extends its influence 
consistently and significantly beyond the bounds of its 
campus. 

That criterion stamps rapidly growing Augusta Col- 
lege as a vigorous and enterprising institution, and the 
latest demonstration of its alert sense of responsiblity was 
the dedication of the resident center at Fort Gordon. 

Augusta College is the first institution in the University 
System of Georgia, to ofl"er full resident credit courses 
on a military post. In so doing, it has recognized the 
need for expanding the horizons of military men who are 
here a few months or years, and in oflfering them the ed- 
ucational advantages which they might have found else- 
where had their country not needed their services. 

Still more significantly, Augusta College in many cases 
may be enlarging the educational opportunities for some 
men who might have been content with only a high school 
education had they not been in uniform. 

In many ways, Augusta College has become a part of 
the local community, and of the greater community 
which is the Central Savannah River Area. As time goes 
by, this circle of influence and service will intensify and 
expand.

glimpse of the various ways man discovers himself. The 
writer combines his knowledge, his imagination, and 
his skills to convey his own impressions of human motiva- 
tion and behavior. By comparing and contrasting his 
impressions of man to our own views, we are enabled to 
evaluate life more significantly. At times a writer's work 
has a meaning for us; at times we are not touched by 
what he has to say. 

Thus, we attempt to determine a writer's competence 
not only as an artist but as a critic of life. 

It is from literature, then, that we may gain a more 
artistic view of life. In our study of English we see the 
relationship of the past, the present, and the future to 
ourselves. Through the realization of the relationship, our 
knowledge becomes qualitative as well as quantitative. 
We, have this and more to gain through the expanded 
curriculum offered at Augusta College.

HISTORY AND POLITICAL SCIENCE 

History Acquaints Past 
with Challenge of 60's 



A composite . . . comprehending world affairs . . . 
insighting the future . . . recreating the past . . . under- 
standing our heritage . . . unfolding the functions and 
concepts of our government , , contrasting the major 
political doctrines of our world . . Through the studies 
of European. American, Political, and Georgia History, 
the Augusta College History Department coordinates 
the past with the present and enables us to gain a better 
understanding of man  his cultural environment, his 
political developement, his unceasing progress. By gain- 
ing a firm background in history, we are able to recog- 
nize and evaluate more significantly our own society and 
its relationship to current world affairs. The study of po- 
litical science prepares us for participation in community 
life. We are enabled to comprehend the workings of 
our own government on a national, stale, and local basis 
as well as the political functionings of other countries. By 
comparing and contrasting the developement of other 
systems of government, we become better and more 
responsible citizens. Thus, a graduate of Augusta College 
who has completed the full complement of history courses 
is better equipped to cope with and grasp problems con- 
fronting him in this politically-minded world.

Art Enables Expression 
of True, Inner Emotion 



Stubbornly inert things brushes stiff with paint . . . 

canvasses rough and barren . . . white paper containing 
lifeless words a fixed scale and a silent instrument 

. , . the painful ecstacy begins when a person infuses a 
part of himself into these objects, creating a living thing. 

All art is a long, arduous baptism. It is a process by 
which human beings give life and meaning to inanimate 
objects. But what composes the study of art at Augusta 
College? To the conscientious student, art becomes a 
media through which he expresses his fears, his beliefs, 
and his purposes. In solving the problem of expression, 
the artist portrays his individual emotions and creates 
new ideas and feelings on campus. As his reward, he 
receives a clearer insight into culture. Knowledge of the 
principles of line, form, color, and design, develops the 
artist  his imagination, his sensitivity. 

Included in the expanded curriculum are such courses 
as painting, music, and drama. Different techniques and 
media are explained to art students. Music participants 
are taught theory, voice, composition, piano, and organ. 
The drama student displays his abilities in producing 
plays and learning such things as staging, costuming, and 
make-up. 

Augusta College offers a wide variety of courses in the 
Fine Arts preparing the student for a deeper understand- 
ing of his culture.

FOREIGN LANGUAGES 



r 







A Pursuit of Languages 
Is Making World Small 



Emphasizing the importance of communication with 
the world . . Broadening our understanding of other 
cultures Promoting better world relations through 

our knowledge of modern foreign languages. With the 
cultivation and comprehension of French, German, or 
Spanish, we, the students of Augusta College, complete 
the circle of understanding between peoples so essential 
to a well rounded education. Because of the endless 
advances in transportation and communication system, 
the world is rapidly becoming smaller. To keep pace with 
the fast, moving trends, the members of the Augusta 
College modern foreign language department endeavor 
to acquaint us not only with these languages but also with 
customs, culture, and history of the countries in which 
these languages originate. Through the possession of a 
practical knowledge of a foreign language, we come to 
a greater understanding of the problems and ambitions of 
our foreign neighbors, and. thus, we surmount one of 
the barriers between nations. In addition to all of this, 
the professors of this department give us a basic foun- 
dation in these languages and in so doing, instill within 
us a deeper appreciation of the homeland. The pursuit 
of language study prepares us for opportunities as 
translators, interpreters, and language instructors.

PHYSICAL EDUCATION 



Physical Development Is 
Essential to an Education 



The snapping of the tape . . the sounding of the buzzer 
... the piercing of the arrow ... the responding of the 
trampoline ... all a part of physical education. This de- 
partment takes great strides in coordinating physical and 
mental ability and gives the student a thorough know- 
ledge of various recreational sports. 

Coach Vanover and his staff in the physical education 
department encourage all AC students to participate 
not only in the required activities, but also in the e.\ten- 
sive program of intramurals. The mind is at rest and the 
body as a whole is put in action with the strenuous and 
valuable skills in the world of sports. Although there is 
no academic credit given for these courses, the students 
benefit greatly. This physical development is basic to good 
mental health and forms an essential part of a well- 
rounded education. 

To broaden the Physical Education curriculum and to 
keep pace with AC's rapid growth, a swimming pool 
and new gymnasium are being constructed to offer other 
aspects of competitive and recreational sports.

BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION 

Business Departments 
Surpass Goal of Skill 

The click of the type writer ... the hum of the elec- 
tric calculator, the ring of the transcribing and bookkeep- 
ing machines . . the masterful voice of the lecturer  
these are the sounds so often heard in the Augusta Col- 
lege business department. With the ever expanding 
growth of American business arises a need for young men 
and women with a sound knowledge of business tech- 
niques and theories. To meet this increasing demand, The 
Augusta College Business Department strives to prepare 
the student for a professional future in the business 
world. The study of business is not only appealing to 
women with secretarial interests, but also to men who 
desire careers in management, business law or certifical 
public accounting. The business department offers a 
varied selection of courses. Included among them are 
such studies as typing, shorthand, bookkeeping, business 
math, business law, accounting, economics and office 
machines. Where else can a student become better qual- 
ified to meet the challenges of the outside world and the 
phases of business than in the Augusta College business 
department. When a student graduates with a BBA from 
Augusta College, he is better prepared to enter the rapid- 
ly growing world of business administration with an 
excellent foundation.

EDUCATION 



Education Courses Offer 
a Teaching Experience 



Ernest O. Melby has said, "In comparison with other 
professions, education has a pecuUar quality. Compare 
it with architecture and building construction. In the 
construction of a building it makes some difference what 
is done. It makes some difference how that something is 
done, but it makes relativeh little difference who does it, 
as long as the plans and specifications are followed. 

In teaching, also, it does make some difference what 
you do, and it makes some difference how you do it, 
but it makes an enormous difference who does it. 

The question of who does the teaching is probably the 
most important question in the quality of any individual's 
education. The individual teacher places his signature 
on his work just as truly as the painter who writes his in 
the lower corner of his painting." 

Seeing that prospective teachers at Augusta College 
get a sound foundation in the techniques and principles 
of .American education is the goal of the department 
bearing that name. The maintenance of high standards 
and ideals is demanded by the Education Department 
in order that students may come to the realization that 
they, in their chosen profession, are not just people 
working hard to make a living, but builders of future 
generations.

BEHAVIORAL SCIENCE 



Study of Society  Its 
Structure Is Essential 



Analysis of man's behavior . . . orientation of the stu- 
dent to the structure and functioning of the society in 
which he lives . . emphasis on the organism's adjustive 
process in its environment . . the development of appre- 
ciation and respect for groups within our culture and 
other cultures, 

A sound understanding of man's behavior in his social 
and cultural environment is becoming increasingly im- 
portant in all professions and fields. Those in the field 
of the behavioral sciences have taken vast steps in com- 
bating social disorders, progressing toward a firmer 
understanding of mental problems and alleviating society 
of delinquency. Through the intensified study of man's 
behavior and his environment, the knowledge gained in 
the Augusta College Psychology and Sociology depart- 
ments, enable us to have a clearer insight into the society 
and its structure. 

Such courses as Contemporary Social Problems, Ab- 
normal Psychology, Marriage and the Family, Experi- 
mental Psychology, and Social Statistics make up the 
extended curriculum offered by the department. The 
Augusta College Behavioral Science Department encour- 
ages further research in man's pattern of behavior and 
more critical evaluations of certain facts and principles 
included in this field.

MATH AND PHYSICS 



Math and Physics Offer 
Challenges to AC Today 



Mathmatics is one of the most challenging and useful 
divisions of human knowledge. Though math is one of 
the oldest of man's scientific endeavors, we find that it 
is rapidly becoming of great importance in our own com- 
plex society. With the vast advances that are being made 
in all fields of science there has risen an urgent need for 
well trained mathematicians and engineers. Where else 
but the field of mathematics is the student exposed to 
the practical applications of theories? Where else but in 
the field of mathematics can the student truly acquire the 
reasoning ability that will be so vital to him in his future 
occupations and professions? 

At Augusta College students are offered a wide vari- 
ety of subjects ranging from freshman algebra, trigonom- 
etry, and calculus to differential equations, modern alge- 
bra, and abstract math. The mathematics department 
prepares the student to analyze any problem which he 
might encounter and to relate his knowledge to the de- 
mands of the growing society. From there he must make 
his contribution and, in so doing, make a useful place 
for himself.

BIOLOGY AND CHEMISTRY 



Scientific Studies Are 
Essential to Education 



Undergoing strenuous lab sessions . . . comprehending 
class lectures . . encountering the world of nature 
through field trips . . witnessing the disassociation of 
mixtures into elements . . . Through the focused micro- 
scope, the Biology student sees a portion of the world 
unknown. He strains to make his mysterious world a part 
of his knowledge and, therefore, makes his contribution 
to the welfare of humanity. The Chemistry student, too, 
is an investigator of an unknown, unfathomable world. 
He sees the awesome unfolding of the elements of nature 
in his laboratory experiments. He gains insight into the 
chemical workings of the universe, and in doing so, he 
becomes an indispensible part of the scientific world. 

With increasing emphasis on scientific training, it 
becomes obvious that preparation for a career as a chem- 
ist or biologist must be the best and most up to date pos- 
sible. The Augusta College Biology and Chemistry De- 
partments create an awareness of our scientific environ- 
ment, and provide us with the knowledge essential to 
understand its workings. Courses in Zoology, Botany, 
Inorganic and Organic Chemistry, Cytology, Qualitative 
Analysis, Ecology, and Physical Chemistry are offered 
by these departments. Through lecture, demonstration, 
and laboratory experience, the Biology and chemistry 
student at Augusta College receives the tools that will 
help him discover new worlds and further his scientific 
study.

PLANT OPERATIONS 



Campus Maintenance Is 
Job of Plant Operations 



Mowing the grass . fixing a broken air conditioner 
. . . putting new light bulbs . . . checking electrical sys- 
tems . . . cleaning the buildings after the week's classes 
. . . guarding the doors at registration . . . issuing traffic 
tickets . . patroling the campus at night. 

These are just some of the many indispensible duties 
of the men in Plant Operations at Augusta College. 
Through the painstaking efforts of many capable hands, 
the campus grounds are kept in beautiful condition the 
year round. Plant Operations is also responsible for the 
maintenance of the buildings. Light bulbs are replaced 
by precautious hands. Air conditioning and heating 
systems are checked periodically to insure maximum 
comfort on cool and warm days. The Pinkerton. a newly- 
acquired member of the plant operations staff, makes 
the campus a safer place for pedestrians by helping to 
control traffic and parking situations. 

The maintenance men go unobserved about their thank- 
less tasks around campus. Even though their finished 
work goes unappreciated at times, the mark of their 
handiwork is seen in all phases of campus life.

STUDENT CENTER 



Every Phase of Activity 
Cited in Student Center 



The laughter of the students . the cries of excite- 
ment the silence of disappointment ... the ring of 
the cash register . the aromas of good food. Where 
else does one room comprise all the characteristics of 
campus activity but in the Student Center? This is a 
place where students gather for a moment of gossiping 
about their tests, expressing their personal problems 
over the opposite sexes, and the rushing of the hungry 
ones to be fed. 

The Student Center is a complex with a book store, a 
cafeteria, a series of game rooms, a number of student 
assembly rooms, and a main social room. Each quarter, 
the Student Center becomes a more favorite place  and 
sometimes a refuge  for students of every class. As one 
enters the massive room, his eyes will focus on the elec- 
tion posters for Student Government or the announce- 
ment of coming student activities. But without the post- 
ers or announcements, he will remember most the fun 
and friendships shared here  the "good times." 

As the college is the people that comprise it, the Stu- 
dent Center would be a lonely, lifeless place without 
AC'S personable students. To cope with the needs and 
aspirations of the growing campus, there are plans for 
a new three-story center to be completed within the 
next year.

STUDENT GOVERNMENT 

SGA Provides Leadership 
for Student Campus Life 

Student Government is a group of twenty students 
elected by the student body to work in a representative 
capacity. Representatives are selected by popular vote 
from each class on the basis of conduct, integrity, and 
scholastic average. Its purpose is to encourage student 
participation in measures that promote the prestige and 
usefulness of the college and to initiate and sponsor stu- 
dent activities for the betterment of student life. This 
year Student Government is a member of Southern Uni- 
versities Student Government Association. 

It serves as the voice of the students at Augusta College 
and welcomes all suggestions for the improvement of 
any college activities, facilities, or functions. As a result 
of these suggestions, many improvements have been 
made during the past years. 

Student Government also plays a vital part in Augusta 
College's social life. It sponsored several dances, includ- 
ing the Confusion Dance, the Christmas Belle Ball, the 
Homecoming Dance, the Jagland Dance and for the first 
time as a senior college, the Graduation Dance. 

Homecoming week was a week of excitement at Augusta 
College and Student Government did its part to contrib- 
ute to the excitement by conducting a bonfire and a 
Homecoming Project Contest. It also sponsored Field 
Day which is an annual event held during Spring Quarter.

.C CHOIR 



AC Choir Embarks 
on Tours in Europe 



Forty-seven Augusta College students and four adult 
chaperones left from Bush Field on August 29 for a tour 
of Europe, consisting of sight-seeing and giving concerts. 
The Choir traveled through Scotland, England, France, 
Switzerland, Italy, Austria, Germany and Holland. They 
gave concerts in London, Paris. Bad Poerschach, Vienna, 
Murich, Nuernberg, Wersbaden, Zurich, Cologne, and 
Hoensbroek Castle. Performances were given in 
Churches. United States military bases, a Rotary Club, 
a police banquet, NATO headquarters and even a castle. 
Selections were prepared for both sacred and secular 
programs. The choir, as ambassadors of good will, carried 
souvenirs to Europe. The students and chaperones re- 
turned to Augusta. September 19. 

With the trip over, the Choir began to prepare for a full 
schedule of performances in the Augusta area. Under 
the direction of Mrs. Emily Remington, the Choir sang 
at the opening and dedication of the Augusta College 
Resident Center at Fort Gordon, at Honors Night, at 
the Miss Richmond County Green Pageant at Butler 
High School Auditorium, at a special Christmas program 
at the Second Baptist Church, and made many other 
regional performances. 

Choir is active, not only off campus, but also on cam- 
pus. Its members have participated in many of the 
campus activities. This year the Choir's entry in the 
Homecoming Project Contest won second place.

AC THEATRE 



Theatre Presents to the 
Region Successful Plays 



The main objective of the Augusta College Theatre 
is to teach drama techniques and to explain the intricate 
stage craft to all its members. The club promotes the 
dramatic arts on campus by performing complete plays, 
which are presented in the campus playhouse, the Cha- 
teau. 

This year the Theatre provided the Augusta Area with 
two successful plays. It opened its 1966-67 season with 
Edward .A.lbee"s "The American Dream." Directed by 
Walter D. Guthrie, the play was a caustically funny look 
at modern American values, American manhood, and 
the American family. The play was performed October 
14, 15, 20, 21, and 22. This play, one of Albee's earlier 
dramas, was presented in conjunction with the second 
annual meeting of the Georgia Theatre Conference. 

The second play, "Diary of Anne Frank" by Francis 
Goodrich and Albert Hackett, is based on the book Anne 
Frank: Diary of a Young Girl. The story is told through 
the eyes of a fourteen year old girl, Anne Frank. She 
and her Jewish family lived in a three room attic in 
Amsterdam during the occupation of the Netherlands by 
the Nazi. "Anne Frank" proved to be one of the biggest 
successes ever staged by the group.

BAPTIST STUDENT UNION 

BSU Encourages Members 
to Share Life of Christ 



The Baptist Student Union at Augusta College has the 
purpose of encouraging students to share life in Christ. 
It brings the Christian community into meaningful fel- 
lowship and sends the students who are members of the 
club back into the school more involved in its life than 
ever before. Its aim is to communicate the gospel to 
those who are outside the community of faith. 

This year the club presented guest speakers at several 
of the meetings. Representatives from the club attended 
a convention at Rock Eagle from October 28 to October 
30. Members also attended a retreat at Camp Daniel 
Marshell near Clark Hill from February 3 to February 
4. All of the club's activities are centered around the 
needs of the students at the College and around the reli- 
gion on the campus. 

Baptist Student Union is a very active club on the 
College's campus. This year the club sponsored candi- 
dates for Miss White Columns and Christmas Belle. 
Since it was originated on campus, the club has grown 
and has now become an important part of campus life.

Inter- Varsity Members 
Share in Campus Life 



Inter- Varsity is a non-denominational Christian fellow- 
ship for Augusta College students. Its purpose is to 
deepen and strengthen the spiritual life of its members 
and to present the Christian witness on campus. 
Speakers, discussions, and Bible studies are held to 
accomplish these purposes. 

Throughout the year, Inter-Varsity has invited guest 
speakers from various fields to share their ideas on dif- 
ferent subjects with the members of the group. Inter- 
Varsity hopes to stimulate interest in the Christian life 
and strengthen the conviction of its members. Subjects 
shared in the meetings range from theological philosophies 
to the problems facing today's student in campus life. 
With the help of these meetings, discussions, and the clubs 
other activities, the members come closer to sharing 
in the life of Christ.

NEWMAN CLUB

Newman Club Relates 
Campus to Catholicism 



The Newman Club at Augusta College is devoted to the 
practicing of the Catholic faith among students who 
participate in the religion. 

This year the club sent representatives to a state con- 
vention in order that it might come to know what other 
similar clubs are doing. Problems of religion on campus 
were discussed thoroughly at this meeting. 

Under the leadership of Father Ray Cox, the club 
members analyze problems in all fields of study and stu- 
dent relations and try to solve them. By doing this, the 
members of the club become more involved in school 
affairs and learn how to harmonize with the other stu- 
dents at the College. Several members of the club volun- 
teered their services at Gracewood so that they could be 
a useful part of society. The club had guest speakers 
and films to fill their program. The theme of these were 
man's inhumanity to man. 

Newman Club is very active at Augusta College. It 
sponsored candidates for all contests, and the Club 
has the honor of having its candidates win both the Christ- 
mas Belle title and the Homecoming title. The club also 
had an entry in the Homecoming Project Contest.

YOUNG REPUBLICANS 



Young Republicans Move 
Toward Better Politics 



The goal of the Young Republican Party at Augusta 
College is to interest the student body in the basic 
principles of the G.O.P. and to encourage the support 
of its candidates. 

This year the Young Republicans opened Campus 
Headquarters from October 1 until the November General 
Election to acquaint the candidates. Republican candi- 
dates from the Tenth District were the guests of the 
Young Republican throughout the campaign period. They 
sought votes from the student body. 

Representatives from Young Republicans attended 
the annual state Republican convention in Atlanta during 
April, 1967. 

The Young Republicans believe that even though the 
student may not agree with the G.O.P. platform and may 
not endorse their candidates, he or she will benefit from 
the exchange of ideas and find the discussions mentally 
stimulating. An upsurge of interest in governmental 
activities could only lead to more active participation 
in civic affairs and should be an influence for good. The 
club does not try to force its ideas on the students of Au- 
gusta College; it merely tries to let the students be aware 
of its party's platform.

YOUNG DEMOCRATS 

Democrats Nourish 
Need of Their Party 

The purpose of the Young Democratic Party of 
Augusta College is to get the students to participate in 
the Democratic Party of Georgia and to strengthen the 
group by providing for additional responsibilities to 
advance its cause. It provides an additional vehicle for 
participation by the college students in the Young Demo- 
crats and Democratic party. 

The Young Democrats on the College's Campus do 
not try to push their ideas on any student. Instead, they 
try to bring a better understanding of their party's plat- 
form in order that the students of the school may be 
better informed on important local and national issues. 
It is their belief that the student who is well informed 
will become a better citizen, using his right to vote 
whether it be for or against the Democratic party.

HISTORY CLUB 



Club Delves Further in 
Our Past  Our Future 



The History Club was first organized at the beginning of 
fall quarter and offers to ail history majors and minors a 
chance to delve further into problems of the past. The 
purpose of the History Club is to stimulate interest in the 
study of man's progress and its relation to the future. This 
objective is achieved in one way by inviting guest 
speakers to talk to the club. At one meeting an AC his- 
tory professor told members about graduate school  the 
requirements, the courses to take, where to obtain ap- 
phcations, and the better colleges that house graduate 
schools. Another way the club stimulates interest in the 
study of history is by holding group discussions on the 
proud heritage of the United States and other nations. 
A topic is chosen beforehand to give the members a 
chance to investigate the subject matter. Most of these 
discussions result in a debate of two sides arguing a his- 
torical point. During a meeting one might merely make 
a statement and immediately be forced to defend his 
point. 

The History Club, which spent many of its early 
meetings drawing up a constitution, hopes soon to be- 
come a member of the National History Club Association.

STUDENT EDUCATION ASSOCIATION 

SEA Sponsors College 
Day for Freshmen 



The Student Education A.ssociation was renamed this 
year as the Geraldine W. Hargrove Chapter of the Au- 
gusta College SEA. This organization offers to all educa- 
tion majors and minors an idea of the fields and facets 
of the teaching profession by presenting various speakers 
in the education field at meetings. Three area educators 
spoke at meetings this year. A local guidance conselor 
spoke on entering the field of guidance; a principal and a 
teacher spoke on the qualities that today's teacher must 



possess. 

SEA began their year with a membership tea. This 
initiation set ofT the year's series of events which in- 
cluded the annual Christmas Tea honoring the faculty, 
as well as a party entertaining the children of the faculty. 
The four major club officers attended the SGEA Leader- 
ship Convention at Rock Eagle in October. At the state 
convention in Atlanta during February, Karen Brown 
was elected historian of the State SGEA. 

SEA sponsored College Day in February to acquaint 
high school seniors with the vastly different college 
atmosphere and explain major fields and courses of study 
ofTered at Augusta College. Students were divided into 
groups and taken on a tour of the campus. As 
College Day did much to introduce upcoming freshmen 
into the college world, SEA acquaints AC education 
students with the problems and benefits of the future 
profession.

Alpha Phi Omega at Augusta College works with worth- 
while organizations in the community. Each member vol- 
unteers twenty hours a quarter to help with such proj- 
ects as collecting for the March of Dimes and the Easter 
Seal Foundation, helping with conservation projects at 
Camp Linwood Hayne. giving Christmas parties for 
underprivileged children, and donating food to the needy 
at Thanksgi\ing. 

The group has adopted an orphan in India and spon- 
sors a speaker at the college twice a month. Members 
serve as assistant Scout masters and advisors in the sum- 
mer program for Scouts. 

To raise funds APOs conduct car washes, cake sales, 
a comic clave auction, a dance, and a campus sweet- 
heart contest. All proceeds from these drives go toward 
some service project. 

During the school year the boys run polls for student 
elections, assist with registration in September, and help 
visitors from organizations such as VISTA and the Peace 
Corps set up booths. 

In the future the fraternity hopes to sponsor a Korean 
orphan, a blood drive, and a beautification project at 
school.

PHI BETA LAMBDA 



$ B A Members Pursue 
Problems of Business 



Phi Beta Lambda teaches its members the ways of the 
business world before the\' are actually thrust into the 
world of buying and selling. Open to students in the field 
of business at Augusta College, Phi Beta Lambda, a pro- 
fessional organization, began the year with an informal 
party to greet new members and organize the club and its 
officers. The\ also held a barbecue and published the 
school's "little black book," the student directories. 
However, the main purpose of the club is to acquaint 
business majors with real companies and real bosses. 
This purpose was accomplished through programs on 
management and talks presented by men of prominence 
in business around the community. A tour was conducted 
of the Procter and Gamble plant where the employees 
presented demonstrations on conducting interviews. This 
served as the Augusta College club's state project this 
Near. Early in spring quarter, local businessmen con- 
ducted interviews with members of the club interested in 
acquiring jobs in the near future.

CIVITANS 



Civitans Give Money for 
the Athletic Scholarship 



The Collegiate Civitans are sponsored by the Augusta 
Civitan Club. Girls who wished to join the club attended a 
membership tea in September at the First Federal Pent- 
house. New members were then invited to join the Club 
and increased the membership to fifty-five. 

The Civitans sponsored several activities to raise money 
for their scholarship fund. These events were put into 
full swing with a cake sale at the beginning of the year. 
One of the events was the annual Powder Puff football 
game in which the girls played football and several boys 
competed for the title of homecoming "queen" at half 
time. In March Civitans held the Student Faculty basket- 
ball game and during spring quarter, a barbecue was 
held to clima.x the year's activities. 

The Civitans also gave a Christmas party for children 
of the faculty and collected for the Heart Fund. They 
may best be remembered, however, not as well-dressed 
coeds but as the "little people" dancing to music at half- 
time at the basketball games, trying to keep with the 
tempo of advisor Keith Cowling.

CIRCLE K 



Club Donates Scholarship 
Towards School Athletics 



Circle K, a service organization dedicated to the bet- 
terment of the college, the members, and the community, 
is affiliated with the Augusta Kiwanis Club. It is part of 
a national federation of similar clubs. Circle K spon- 
sored several events this year to earn money toward an 
athletic scholarship. Hopefully this is to be increased to 
a full scholarship and presented to Coach Vanover for the 
athletic department. A car wash began what Circle K 
hoped to be their most active year. 

At the beginning of the quarter. Circle K held a get- 
acquainted party for prospective members. This year 
the membership quota was upped to sixty because of 
the increased number of qualified boys. Circle K spon- 
sored quite a few dances for the student body. The 
Miss K-Deb Ball, held during spring quarter, selected the 
new club sweetheart to succeed Miss Linda Harrison, 
1966 Miss K-Deb. Circle K is very active in intramurals 
and other school-sponsored activities. Their float cap- 
tured first place during Homecoming, and they hosted the 
state Circle-K convention in May. The club provided 
transportation for crippled children to therapy to add 
to their participation in the March of Dimes Campaign.

BELL RINGER 



BELL RINGER Published 
Every Two Weeks 



THE BELL RINGER is published every two weeks and 
distributed free to Augusta College students. The news- 
paper staff stands behind their chief, the editor. He 
hands out the assignments, and each staff member is 
expected to contact the persons involved in that story 
to get the required information. Then the staffer has the 
task of writing the story in such a way that the readers 
will be interested in what the writer is saying. So, at 
last, the story is finished, but there is much more to 
getting a newspaper out than that. Someone has to proof- 
read all the stories and then they must be typed. Every 
newspaper must be "laid out" and sent to the publishers 
in enough time to be back in time for distribution. A 
newspaper assignment is not something that can be put 
off. Running a newspaper means giving time, patience, 
and talent  time because for some reason interviews 
keep getting postponed, patience because college students 
want to read stories that aren't too difficult yet not loo 
simple, and talent because it does take talent to be orig- 
inal and to keep things running in order.

BIOLOGY CLUB 




The Biology Club Brings 
a Greater Understanding 



The Biology Club at Augusta College is a relatively 
new club on the campus. Since its origination in 1965, 
the club has grown remarkably. It is open to those students 
who are majoring or minoring in the field. 

This year, with Mr. Harvey Stirewalt and Mrs. Barbara 
Shipes, both assistant professors of Biology at Augusta 
College, as advisors and tour guides, the club took a 
field trip to Gatlinburg, Tennessee. The trip, which 
lasted from April 14 to April 16, was sponsored to let 
members see and collect flora and fauna of the mountain 
area. Mrs. Shipes led the botany enthusiasts who found 
several relatively rare flowers, some of which were col- 
lected for the school herbarium. The most rare ones 
were left so as not to wipe out the entire population. Mr. 
Stirewalt led the zoology enthusiasts who found many 
types of newts, salamanders, and crayfish, some of 
which were collected for further study in lab. Many were 
caught, identified and freed, but the general policy to 
leave the native inhabitants unharmed. Augusta College 
is now listed as a depository for these specimens.

PSYCHOLOGY CLUB 

Psychology Club Is 
Progressive Organization 

The Psychology Club at Augusta College was founded 
for the purpose of bringing together all students inter- 
ested in or majoring in psychology. With the expansion 
of the Augusta College Psychology facilities, the club 
has also expanded. 

Under the leadership of Dr. Stewart, the club met 
twice monthly. During the past year, the club had 
guest speakers to complement its programs. On January 
24, Dr. Harvey Cleckley, internationally known psychi- 
atrist, was the guest speaker, and at the club's final 
meeting of winter quarter, Mr. John Williams, a compara- 
tive psychologist from the University of Florida, discussed 
his doctoral dissertation concerning the learning process 
in Caymens  a dangerous animal similar to the alligator. 

During the 1966-67 school year, the Psychology Club 
proved to be one of Augusta College's most progressive 
organizations. They sponsored candidates for every 
contest and constructed an attractive Homecoming proj- 
ect. With the rapid growth of our campus and the Psy- 
chology Department, this organization has met the 
demands of our student body.

WHITE COLUMNS STAFF 



Annual Is Story of AC  
Past, Present and Future 



The White Columns for 1967 most nearly approaches 
the original purpose for a yearbook  an historical account 
of the year. In the annual is featured a surprise opening 
section consisting of a history of Augusta College from 
the Civil War Days to the 1966-1967 school year. A true 
spirit of the campus is the ultimate goal of the staff. 
Hours were spent on the drudgery of initial and last 
minute planning, such as trying to assign appointments 
for individual class portraits, organizing group shots, and 
most of all the last minute surging of drawing proper lay- 
outs and composing copy. 

During the spring quarter eight representatives from 
the annual staff attended the Southern College and Uni- 
versities seminar at Stone Mountain Inn. New techniques 
and dimensions in yearbook production were discussed 
and illustrated by experts in the various yearbook fields, 
thus giving the staff a better insight to yearbook planning. 

.Although the staff strives for originality, correctness, 
and appeal, its quality of work would be far less without 
the advice of Mr. Dan Troy, representative of the Ameri- 
can Yearbook Company. 

All of these things and much more went into the pro- 
duction of the best Augusta College Yearbook ever.

STUDENT LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE 

SGA Held First Annual 
Leadership Conference 



Before the fall quarter of 1966 more than sixty Augus- 
ta College students convened at the campus student 
center and conducted a two-day student leadership con- 
ference. William Tate the Dean "of Men at the University 
of Georgia opened the conference. The primary objective 
of the conference was to encourage the principal leaders 
to strive for better unification of the four-year educational 
institution and to instill the importance of elected posi- 
tion in student leaders. Officers of all clubs, the two pub- 
lications, and the faculty advisors of the clubs partici- 
pated. The theme of the conference was Leadership 
Through Understanding. The challenge was presented 
by theRev. Daniel Munn, chaplain at the Medical College 
of Georgia. Sam L. Bodie, student body president, 
brought all campus leaders together to discuss questions 
pertaining to student life, to unify the student campus 
leaders toward a central goal, to hear from noted state 
leaders about their views of the attitudes of a leader, to 
demonstrate that Augusta College is striving to encourage 
campus leaders to be leaders before their fellow students, 
and to establish a precedent for the Augusta College 
Student Government Association in the first year of the 
leader's conference.

THE BEGINNING 



Orientation, Registration 
Dance Begin New Year 



Wheels at Augusta College began turning for the 
1966-1967 school year on September 18, 1967. It all 
started with a day of orientation for the approximately 
900 bewildered freshmen. This program featured the 
college administration and faculty members. Augusta 
College President Gerald B. Robins began the orienta- 
tion with a welcome address. Others who participated in 
the freshman program were Dean John H. Gleason, Reg- 
istrar Martin, Dr. Frank Chou, Billy B. Thompson, and 
others representing the administration. Much information 
was given to the freshmen about school policies and other 
general topics. Registration, as always, was quite hectic. 
This year was more confusing than ever due to the over 
2,000 students who enrolled. Many students finished reg- 
istering in a little worse shape than they started, but all 
managed somehow to make it through to the end -the 
parking permit! By winter quarter all students were 
skilled in the art of registering. Orientation and registra- 
tion were climaxed by the "getting-to-know-you-dance." 
The dance was sponsored by the Augusta College Student 
Government and held in the Student Center on Septem- 
ber 30. The music was provided by the Vikings from 
Birrr.'-gham, Alabama. By this time Augusta College 
life was in full swing.

La Bachanale sponsored by Circle K of Augusta Col- 
lege. Julian Smith Casino was the scene for the activity 
in October of 1966. The students danced to the current 
hits provided by Lewis Jones and his band The Pall- 
bearers. The Circle K Dance and Decoration Committee 
put much effort into the success of the dance. The Casino 
was decorated in royal blue and white, the school colors. 
Streamers hung across the arch windows and from the 
ceiling. The stage for the band was also gaily decorated. 
Other members enthusiastically sold their quota of 
tickets for the dance. Willis Roland, president, reported 
that La Bachanale was a great success for Circle K and 
that those attending enjoyed the dance very much.

POWDER PUFF GAME 



Freshmen, Sophomores 
Triumph Over Old Civies 



Augusta College did have a football team this year. 
They may not have been professionals, but they had lots 
of spirit! Of course, the football team referred to was 
the Collegiate Civitans" team  actually two teams. Mem- 
bers of Civitans donned football apparatus and took over 
the role of "pigskin" players. Civitan members of the 
senior and junior classes were pitted against the "greener" 
members of the sophomore and freshman classes. Both 
teams combined what they had of skill and determination 
to make quite a battle of it. The efforts of the "spunky" 
sophomores and freshmen proved to be too much of a 
handful for the "decrepit" seniors and juniors. The 
younger players won out, too! Due to the hard work of 
the cheerleaders, both teams were inspired to play 
their best. These cheerleaders, of course, were none 
other *han H. D. Satterwhite and Lonnie Holliday. Their 
"cheers ' were recognized by spectators to be some of the 
most "unusual" ever presented. Highlighting the half- 
time of the game was the announcing of the 1966 "Big 
Civie". Nominations were made by the Civitans and then 
presented to the student body for voting. Ginger Walker, 
president of Civitans, announced Jimmy Findley to be 
this year's "Big Civie."

SLAVE SELL 

Slave Market in Student 
Center Was Real Bargain 

Anyone visiting the AC campus for the first time on 
February 16, would have been quite surprised if they 
had gone into the Student Center about noon. It would 
seem that the student body had gone back in time to the 
old tradition of selling slaves. Actually, it had, in the form 
of Alpha Phi Omega's Slave Sell. Seven of Augusta 
College's bravest and prettiest co-eds were auctioned 
off to the lucky males with the highest bids. Many of 
the slaves proved to be quite expensive, but a lot of AC 
males seemed to get real bargains. Professor Keith 
Cowling forced himself to serve as the auctioneer for the 
day and did quite a good job ot it. The slaves were every- 
thing from shy and embarrassed to giggly and hammy. 
The slaves and their masters were as follows: "Baby" 
Brenda Rabun to the choir; "Kissable" Karen Cross to 
Keith Cowling; "Vivacious" Vickie Horn to Mike Grover; 
"Petulant" Pam Davis to Art Benton, Duffy Brandon, 
and Bobby Auvenshire; "Delerious" Dianne Dorn to 
Wayne Pulliam; "Hot Lips" Holly Shurtleff to Bill Coal, 
Phil Corly, Ray Ganaway, Jon Davis, and Chuck Nel- 
son; and "Roudy" Ruthie Whaley to David Nuno.

STUDENT-FACULTY GAME 



Professors and Coaches 
Triumph Over Civitans 



On March 1, 1967 the Augusta College gymnasium was 
the scene for the annual student-faculty basketball 
game. The Augusta College Collegiate Civitans spon- 
sored the event in order to raise money for their annual 
project, a basketball scholarship, presented to the Ath- 
letic Department. The winning faculty team skinned by 
the Civitans with a thirty-three to twenty-seven score. 
The co-ordinated faculty players were Mr. Birdseye, Dr. 
Frank, Mr. Freeman, Mrs. Hudson, Mr. Quesenberry, 
Mr. Stirewalt, Miss Townsend, and Coach Vanover. The 
"most unvaluable" player award was given to Mr. 
Stirewalt for his co-ordination and skill in leading his team 
to victory. A squad consisting of Keith Cowling and

STUDENT ELECTIONS 



Students Have Voice 
At Various Elections 



With the supervision of the student activities office and 
the aid of the Student Elections Committee of Student 
Government Association, many elections were held during 
the 1966-1967 year. These elections were numerous and 
plaved an important role in the life of the campus. The 
student body chose two queens. Miss Christmas Belle 
and Miss Homecoming to reign over the two big dances 
of the year. Augusta" College students also expressed 
themselves through voting for class officers and repre- 
sentatives-at-large for the Student Government Associa- 
tion. During fall quarter, there was much campaigning 
and sign posting for the new freshman class officers and 
representatives, also for positions vacated by upper 
classes. At the beginning of the spring quarter, cam- 
paigning began again for the 1967-1968 class officers and 
representatives for the up-coming senior, junior, and 
sophomore classes. Probably the most important election 
of the vear was the adoption of the new constitution for 
.Augusta College. Although the old one was completely 
out" of date, there was much dispute and interest in the 
adoption of the new one written by members of Student 
Government, Faculty, Administration, and approved by 
the Faculty Committee and Dr. Robins.

CONVOCATIONS 



Audience Enjoyed the 
Moods of Town Criers 



The Town Criers, a vivacious vocal group noted for 
their television and nightclub appearances as well as 
their recordings, were received well b\ Augusta College 
students on May 10. 1967. The "Town Criers In Con- 
cert" appeared at eight o'clock p.m. before a capacity 
crowd of students and faculty in the college gym. Not 
onl\ did the group of four \ oung men displa\' great talent 
in the field of music, but also the\ pro\ed to be great 
entertainers in the field of comed\. Each young vocalist 
was introduced to the audience by one of their fellow- 
workers. Presenting a great variety of music, they sang 
songs from the soft, romantic "Go Away Little Girl" to 
the jazz of "When the Saints Go Marching In" to 
many types of the popular folk music. The audience 
was also greath enriched b\ the presentation of "Them 
Poems." a "highly cultural" t\pe of literature, written 
and recited by one of the members of the group. The 
two-hour show was the result of much hard work on the 
part of the Convocations Committee which was headed 
by Phyllis Reese. The Convocations Program was spon- 
sored by the Student Government Association and was 
certainly a treat for all who attended.

Reign Over Dance 



Alpha Phi Omega held its second annual Beauty and 
the Beast Dance this year on Ma_\ 2. the night before 
AC'S Field Day. The event took place at Julian Smith 
Casino and featured the "New Breeds" and "Mr. Bare- 
footin" " himself. Robert Parker. Highlighting the evening 
was the announcement of Alpha Phi Omega's outstand- 
ing brother of the \ear and also its sweetheart for 1967. 
Five brothers had been nominated for this first award 
and were voted on b\ the fraternitv members. He was 
chosen on the basis of his service to his fraternity, school, 
and community. This year's award was given to Ken 
Badke, president of the fraternity. The sweetheart for 
1967 was chosen from a field of seven candidates. Each 
of the girls were introduced to the fraternity brothers at 
a tea and fashion show several weeks before the ballots 
were cast. The candidates were as follows: Phyllis Cadle. 
Marie D'Antignac. Pam Davis. Sharon Day. Dianne Dorn. 
Sheila Hummel, and Brenda Rabun. Ray Ganaway, 
chairman of the dance committee, finally revealed the 
name of the 1967 APO Sweetheart to be Marie D'Antig- 
nac. After being congratulated with roses, her pin, and a 
kiss, Marie led off the next dance with Ken Badke. presi- 
dent and brother of the vear.

FIELD DAY 



Field Day Was Fun Day 
for Spectators and Crowd 



Spirits were higii and the sun shone brightly over the 
AC campus on May 3, Field Day 1967. The day, spon- 
sored each year by the Student Government Association, 
was. as usual, a highlight of the spring quarter. Partici- 
pant-, and spectators alike all left for home a little dirtier, 
but happier, than when thev arrived. With the request of 
Dr. Robins, classes were dismissed at the end of third 
period for the rest of the day so students could com- 
pletely enjoy the activities of the day. Activities were 
man\ and points were given to the classes along with 
each victor). Rivalr\ grew as the highest class juggled 
between freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors. 
But in the end, the proved to be the most versa- 

tile. .And versatility was certainly the desired trait, for 
e\ents were numerous. Skills were needed for water- 
melon eating, leap frogging, sawdust hunting, and three- 
legged racing. Circle K's "Little 500" tricycle race proved 
to be quite an endurance test. David Nuno was 
crowned to reign as Miss Field Day 1967. The pie eating 
contest ended up as a pie throwing contest, and there 
were many more contestants than were planned on. The 
fun-filled da> was the product of much hard work on the 
part of Phyllis Cadle and her Field Day Committee.

MISS WHITE COLUMNS 1967 

Miss Haskell Chosen 
Miss White Column

the first Miss Vhite Columns of Augusta College. At a 
convention held at Stone Mountain, Georgia, four of the 
lop men in the American Yearbook Company chose

was sponsored by the Biology Club. The other candidates 
and their sponsors were as follows: Miss Pam Davis  
Alpha Phi Omega; Miss Linda Harrison  Circle K;

GRADUATION 



Congratulations Are 
Given AC Graduates 



On June 11, 1967, one hundred forty-eight students 
marched into Bell Auditorium to the rigid strains of "The 
Trumphte Voluntary." Dr. Robins conferred the first 
degrees ever given by Augusta College as a senior insti- 
tution on these students. Dr. Lewis Webster Jones, chair- 
man of the Joint Council on Economic Education and the 
main speaker advised that the graduates not to limit 
themselves to formal education, whether in college or 
graduate school. Colleges cannot teach everything, he 
said but "you can, by your own selection from all the 
rich and varied and available resources of the world you 
live in, continue to educate yourself in relevant knowl- 
edge, in appreciation, understanding and enjoyment." 

Professor Joseph Le Conle Talley became an emeritus 
professor of physics during the ceremony. Since the 
college began as a junior college, Talley has devoted 
forty years to its growth. 

Greetings and congratulations were also given by Roy 
V. Harris for the Board of Regents, Dr. Harry B. O'Rear 
president from the Medical College of Georgia, William 
Morris, member of Board of Regents, and Henry Neal, 
Executive Secretary, Board of Regents.

Editor's Epitaph 



The story of a year  the conflicts, confrontations, contributions, and conquests could not possibly 
be revealed between the covers of a simple book. For each individual at Augusta College, the story 
is different and the scope is varied. The degrees of feelings of devotion, effort, and spirit will all 
differ in intensity from time to time, situation to situation. However, as the WHITE COLUMNS 
tries to bring you what is considered a new dimension in yearbook production, I sincerely hope that 
we have captured Augusta College 1967 as you would like to remember it. Many long hours of 
planning and production have been given by a most dedicated staff in hopes that we could bring to 
you the story of a most important year. Not only is 1967 the Fortieth Anniversary of Augusta 
College, but it marks the beginning of many rich and fulfilling lives. In the years to come when each 
of us has left the campus to realize our individual dreams. I hope that we can look back at this 
edition and give it the honor and respect it so deserves. 

So. on behalf of the White Columns Staff, I extend our most sincere congratulations to the Stu- 
dents, Faculty, and Administration for a very progressive and memorable year  a year that is now 
part of the proud heritage of Augusta College. 

Best Wishes,
