Dr. Maurice Karlen Townsend

A new man moves
into Sanford Hall
July 1, 1975

Former Indiana State University administrator, Dr. Maurice
Karlen Townsend, became the new president ot West Geor-
gia College on July 1 , 1 975.

During his tirst year in office, Dr. Townsend initiated
several changes at the college.

Within two months after his arrival on campus, he
announced plans to open Z-6, the food services building
which had remained vacant since its completion in 1972, by
summer of 1976.

However, acting on the advise of several committees he
had set up to evaluate the present student center operations,
he later announced that the new building would be opened
during winter quarter

Students, returning to the college in January, found that
the new building was now open for use and that a bus serv-
ice had been set up to transport them to the building, located
on the west side of the campus.

Along with his announcements of use of the food service
center, Dr. Townsend announced his plans for the utilization
of the Student Center.

Besides housing several student activities offices and a
snack bar, the President said that feasible plans had been
made to move the post office and bookstore into the student
center.

OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT

Dear Graduates:

404-334-4411

This morning marks the culmination of serious and concentrated effort by more
than four hundred men and women. You have conscientiously pursued undergraduate
and graduate studies at West Georgia College, fulfilling academic requirements for
the degrees established at this College. Your work has been significant, not only
to yourselves but to society generally. It is with pride and congratulations that
I turn now to the conferral ceremonies. Because you have earned your degrees, you
also have our respect.

In many ways the noblest and most exacting professional life lies before those
of you receiving education degrees. For you have selected the teaching of children
or the ministering to those who are troubled in our society. All people are pre-
cious but infinitely more important to us all is the learning experience of our
children for therein lies the future of our society and the health to those uncer-
tain about the meaning of their lives for therein lies our social salvation. Be
understanding but above all conduct yourselves in the highest professional sense:
in your care will be our heritage.

To the graduate students, you have now attained another mile-stone in your edu-
cation. This experience will have added new dimensions to your understanding, clear
insights, and hopefully a greater sense of your worth to society. Whatever your pro-
fessional commitment, be aware that this society increasingly depends upon educated
men and women to lead it. Be cognizant of that fact and know that all knowledge
serves us best when it is accompanied by humility and love.

To those of you who have studied in the arts, philosophy, the natural sciences,
literature, or the social and behavioral sciences, these endeavors will have sharp-
ened your social conscience and broadened your understanding. You have followed in
the footsteps of many generations to know more about the human condition, how socie-
ties have lived and died, how cultures have blossomed and developed. Be aware that
you now have begun the lifelong adventure of learning and understanding some of the
deepest and most complex concerns of mankind: the quest of us all to find our purpose
or meaning in time and place.

To the business graduates, you have chosen to prepare for responsibilities in the
world of business or to teach others for those responsibilities. This Republic has
always depended heavily upon commerce and industry for its strength and vision. Be
aware that you must combine knowledge with moral and ethical conduct if you are to serve
that world effectively.

Best wishes to each of you in your endeavors.

rincerely, -^-~"

entertained thoughts of yet another championship year. Seven first place

trophies plus the state crown were awarded the ladies regionally. A tough

regional tournament, in Gainesville, Florida, garnered the team a third place

finish, marking the first time in five years that West Georgia was not represented

in the nationals. It was, nevertheless, another outstanding season's performance

Athletics at West Georgia . . Good sports winning and

Cross country
ot endurance

ourse, Six men in a gruelling test

Volleyball Heroes a strong season but not as long as
expected. A good job nevertheless.

The basketball team gains momentum atter an erratic start.
The home win streak is broken. Another is begun.

Lady Braves are rewarded for another outstanding
year. Paced by a freshman more outstanding years are
in the making.

Cindermen find a coach and a frustrating year becomes
bearable. Three all-American candidates lead a determined
squad.

Men's and women's tennis . . . After six months of practice
they net their just desserts, challenging again, for the con-
ference crown.

It's a rebuilding year for the duffers; in style and class they
stroke through a tough season.

Swinging into action with one of the greatest potential
teams in ten years, baseball tags its mark in school accom-
plishments.

The ever-popular intramurals . . . kicking, passing,
screaming, hitting, driving, rolling, jumping, running, swim-
ming, ad infinitum. Just for the competition . . .? Oh yeah!
Wait till next year!

Sports . . . Someone is always telling you what to do with
them. . . But what would you do without them?

Athletics at West Georgia . . Good sports and bad sports
winning and losing.

It was a good year . . .

The long and tedious job of putting
together a yearbook is finished for another
year.

No doubt, this yearbook will have its short-
comings and not everyone will like it.

We, ourselves, even now see things we
could have done to make this a better book.

However, an honest effort was made by the
people involved in the book's creation.

Even with its shortcomings, we are proud
of the work we have done here because fac-
ing many dilemmas, we have tried our best.

Our special thanks to Buell Cobb, advisor;
Dean Charles Smith, assistant dean of Stu-
dent Services; and Larry Naylor, representa-
tive for Taylor Publishing Company.
Respectfully yours,
Nancy Badertscher, editor
