"What many don't realize is that Kirby Mc-
Cartney is, in many ways, the face of LaGrange
College: she is often the first person students
see as they begin the process of this college.
How lucky we are that they are greeted by the
bright and cheerful countenance of our Ms.
Kirby! Sure, she's the Administrative Assis-
tant for Student Life, but for me she's so much
more: she's my right and left hands, my protec-
tor and advisor, one of my dearest friends. I
can't imagine this Dean gig without her by my
side and hope I never have to!"

-Dean Jack Slay

"Kirby is the most amazing person, friend, co-
worker, grandmother and Christian I have met.
She is always there to help, no matter the cir-
cumstance. She has cried with me, laughed with
me, prayed for and with me and showed uncon-
ditional love to me and everyone around her.
She is so precious to me and I am very proud
of her."

- Sharon Newton

"Ms. Kirby is the perfect lady to have in the
first-year girls' dormitory. She cares so much
about her girls. Her door is always open, and
she's always smiling too. Ms. Kirby may be the
RD for Hawkes, but that is not her most impor-
tant job - her most important work is done as
Grandmother-in-Residence."

-Laura Dresdow

Ms. Kirby came to the college in 1983
as a member of the Admissions
department. Later she moved to the place
we all know her from- Student Life. Hers
is a face most students coming through
the college remember. She is always
welcoming and willing to help or direct
students to a source of help. One of her
many and most recognizable jobs on
campus is her position as Resident Director.
She has lived on campus in this capacity
for 8 years now. She lived in Turner Hall in
the years before it became the new student
center and then moved to Hawkes Hall
where she can still be found. She attends
Reeds Chapel where she also teaches
Sunday School and volunteers her time.
Ms. Kirby is respected by her colleagues,
loved by the students and adored by her
family. The 2007 Quadrangle Yearbook
Staff dedicates this yearbook to Ms. Kirby.
Thanks for all you do each day!

*

'Ms. Kirby is a wonderful car-
ing person, who is kind and|
loving to all those who live'
underneath the roof of her be-
loved Hawkes Hall."

Fleming Garner \

"Miss Kirby has been our "go-
to" person in student life for
years. Anyone needing some-
thing in student life can count
on Kirby cheerfully to assist.
She is one of our greatest as-
sets."

Ring Ceremony

The Lagrange College ring ceremony
started in 2002 to honor the graduates
for their achievements in all areas. The ring
is gold and features the seal of the college.
The seal includes the year of the college's
founding in 1 83 1 . It also displays the globe of
knowledge and the motto of the college: "The
pleasures of the mind exceed the pleasures of
the body." On one side of the ring the columns
of the historic Smith Hall appear, and on
the opposite side the initials of the college
"LC" appear. This tradition of giving rings to
the Senior class continues this sixth year to
remind the graduates of their alma mater and
recognize their great achievements here at the
college.

his explanation, three remarkable ladies
presented the rings to the class. Mrs. Andrea
Fernandez, Director of Student Activities and
Service, Mrs. Anita Laney, the Director of the
Bookstore, and Mrs. Martha Pirkle, Director
of Alumni and Family Relations presented
the rings to each of the Seniors in this year's
graduating class. Senior Elizabeth Story led
in the singing of the Alma Mater, and Senior
Natalie Hilliard ended the ceremony with the
benediction.

This year gave us one of the most exciting homecomings ever
because it was the first one to feature a football game. The Pan-
thers played one of their most exciting games all season even though
they fell short to the Bears of Washington University 21-31. The
first home touchdown was scored in the first quarter. Nichelle Ortiz,
representing Alpha Omicron Pi was crowned queen. Besides the
game, alumni and current students were involved in activities such
as alumni convocation, a concert by Aerosmith cover band Draw the
Line, a parade, tailgating, and reunion parties.

This season at Price theater has
proved to be just as magnifi-
cent as ever. In Daughters, audienc-
es visited Brooklyn, and the home
of an Italian American family. The
characters were real and humorous
and the set was homey and realistic.
Next, in the black box, audiences
went below the earth to the depths
of hell itself in No Exit, where three
strangers face the confines of hell
and trying to make sense of it all.
In the Spring, audiences went to
yet another new place. This time, in
Six Characters in Search of an Au-
thor, we see several actors crash a
rehearsal for a play and come to find
out that the actors are not what they
seem at all. Price Theater presented
audiences with social problems,
real life dramas, humor, and ques-
tions about life, death and drama.

fhe beginning of this school year, unlike previ-
ous years, was marked with the anticipation
of the upcoming football season. On Saturday,
September 2nd, Coach Mooney and his full roster
of players took the field versus Maryville College
in Tennessee for their first ever game only to
fall 7-47. Thousands showed up to cheer on
the Panthers at their first home game versus
the Rhodes College. Hundreds tailgated
before the game. Several people were
recognized by President Gulley be-
fore the game for their efforts in
bringing football to the college.
The President then was presented
the game ball from the U.S.
Army Silver Wings parachute
team. The Panthers fell 0-30.

Editor's Page

Another year has come and gone here on The Hill. We have all come such
a long way from where we were back in September. The new faces were
there amidst the familiar ones we have come to love. New professors and
redone departments, a remodled cafeteria and plans for future endeavors of
the college for a greek row, new library and new housing. We have seen it
all. We have learned, we have laughed, we have cried, we have lost, we have
stumbled, and we have succeeded. And that is just the students. Those of
us on this year's yearbook staff were there with you experiencing another
year at LC. But we were also there to document the good days, preserve the
embarassing moments, recognize the successes, honor those we lost, and to
collect the memories from a year on this great Hill. It was fun to join you this
year. It was hard to preserve these memories. But it has all been worth it.
The staff worked hard. Some of us followed you across the South, we showed
up at your games and bothered you at your meetings. We pestered you with
e-mails and flyers. And now we present you with your 2007 Quadrangle
Yearbook. Thank you for all your patience and help. This is a memory book
for the students, by the students. We hope you enjoy it! I have enjoyed work-
ing on it even though it has been one of the most difficult projects I have ever
completed. These past two years as your yearbook editor have provided me
with so much valuable experience. I am so glad to have these experinces for
the future. And I hope that whoever takes my place will take what I have left
them, learn from my mistakes, and make next year's yearbook spectacular.
Thanks to all who helped me along the way and to the college for giving me
this opportunity. It has been a great ride and I am off to a new chapter of my
life. I will miss this Hill- the buildings, the friends, the professors, the classes
the opportunities and the food... well maybe not that one!

Thanks for a wonderful two years!

It lies before you now...
The untrod path,
The unopened door,
The mountain peak,
The broad, blue heavens.

We challenge you. Walk that path, open that door,
climb the mountain heights. The sky's the limit. Let
God be your guide and hang toughfollow your
dreams with determination. And when you find
yourself inundated with choices, don't be afraid. Be
wise. Choose God's waychoose excellence.

Ben, we are all so proud of you. We have watched
you mature into a very talented young man.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, seek His will
in all you do, and he will direct your paths.

make his face shine upon you, and be gracious unto you; The Lord lift up His counte-

We love you dearly,

It is unbelievable that the time has already come to be writing
this to you. It seems like just yesterday we were doing this for your high
school graduation! We are even more proud of you than ever before.
You have continued to improve yourself and impress us with each year
that has gone by. You have accomplished far beyond any of our ex-
pectations. We feel confident that with God's guidance and your obe-
dience, you will be nothing short of a blessing to every person's life you
touch. Your character speaks volumes about you without you saying a
word! Sandra, you are the kind of daughter that would make any other
parent envious! We love you for all that you are and all that you strive
to be. We wish you nothing but happiness and success as you graduate
and move into a new career and marriage!

Love,

Dad & Jodi
