WEST GEORGIA COLLEGE
CARROLLTON, GEORGIA 30118

THE CHIEFTAIN '81

With an enrollment of some 5,000
students from 36 states and 16 for-
eign countries, and a teaching faculty
that numbers nearly 300, West
Gerogia is a "not too small, not too
big" college. The College is located
45 miles west of Atlanta in Carrollton,
Georgia, a town of some 18,000. Full
and part-time faculty total nearly 300,
over 60% of which hold the doctor-
ate or other appropriate terminal de-
gree. Faculty members come from
throughout the nati n and world.
More than 300 professional and sup-
port staff complement the teaching
faculty. West Georgia's campus is
composed of 400 acres of towering
oaks, grassy laws, and thousands of
shrubs and flowers, making it one of
the most beautiful college scenes any-
where. The campus architecture com-
bines the old styles from the early A
& M School days with the most mod-
ern designs of today. The campus
now includes some 50 structures of
learning, residence and recreation
which are valued at nearly $40 mil-
lion. A free bus service serves the en-
tire campus. There are more than 50

registered student organizations on campus, covering a wide variety of interests, from exploring caves and skydiving to
lifting weights and debate. West Georgia has chapters of 18 national and social fraternities and sororities on campus. They
are active in campus and community activities and provide many opportunities for involvement with with fellow students,
"Rush" periods for pledging new members are held at various intervals throughout the academic year. Many religions
maintain campus centers which serve the campus community. Ministers and priests are available to serve students through
workshop services, personal counseling and group social and service activities. A very active fine arts student activities
program includes the Concert Choir, Chamber Singers, Wind Ensemble, Jazz Ensemble and Concert Band. There are also
quarterly exhibitions of student art and or theatre production is staged each quarter and student directed one act plays
and an opera workshop are annual activities. All students are eligible to audition for such activities and there are a limited
number of scholarships in several of these areas. West Georgia College has one of the top debate programs in the United
States. In 1979 the WGC team was ranked third in the nation, having placed seven consecutive years among the top
teams in the country, including such recognized powers as Harvard and the University of Southern California. Student
publications include a weekly news paper, annual literary magazine and annual yearbook. Each of these publications has a
student editor and staff. Also, West Georgia has a campus radio station which is managed and operated by students. It
provides an alternative form of listening for the student population as well as a valuable tool for those students in the
mass communications program. Presently, West Georgia maintains nine resident halls for men and women. Some 2,000
students reside on campus. Most halls are air-conditioned and include such features as a laundry room, study and typing
carrels, kitchenettes, and television lounges. History is the originator for West Georgia's new logo. The granite memorial
pictured above came to the campus from the Mcintosh Reserve located south of Carrollton. Chief William Mcintosh had a
large granite stone hewn into steps for his visitors to mount their horses. The 200-year old rock has been on the campus
since 1916 when it was moved from the Mcintosh Reserve and used as a cornerstone in a girls' dormitory. It now rests in
a park on Front Campus Drive and symbolizes a "Step up to West Georgia College."

BIRTH OF AN ANNEX

And Finally . . . The Dedication

Last spring, the West Georgia Col-
lege Library was renamed for Irvine S.
Ingram, president of West Georgia
and the preceeding Fourth District A
& M School.

The West Georgia college library Is
one of the most modern, easily ac-
cessible, well-stocked libraries In the
State of Georgia. The recent expan-
sion now gives the four-level struc-
ture more than 110,000 square feet
of space. It presently houses some
275,000 bound volumes, an extensive
reserve of 1,500 magazines from
around the nation and world, and
nearly 1 million pieces of microtext. It
is the district depository for United
States government publications.

^^HK-

The past year saw significant additions to the curriculum'
in the Department of Art. Under the direction of Professor
Ozzie Binion, Advertising Design was established as an area
within the department.

Two internships in Advertising Design were established
with the Atlanta Center for Creative Services, and one with
the Southwire Company in Carrollton. An internship in Fab-
ric Design was instituted with the Milliken Company in La-
Grange, Ga.

A trip to New York City as part of an Art History Semi-
nar in which the major art museums were visited, was con-
ducted by Professor Dotti Joiner. A total of thirty-two stu-
dents made the trip and were fascinated by the "Big
Apple". Other art history and studio classes visited the Bir-
mingham Museum of Art in Alabama to view the perma-
nent collection and see the travelling exhibition: "Art and
Medicine".

A bronze and aluminum foundry was installed under the
guidance of Professor Henry Setter. An electric kiln was
added to ceramics. A radial arm saw with mitre attach-
ments enabled the painting students to frame their work in-
expensively.

Professor Bruce Bobick spent the summer in Cortona,
Italy where he taught two courses in painting for the Uni-
versity of Georgia Studies Abroad Program.

Art students were active in exhibiting their works during
the year. Undergraduate painting students Donna Porschatis
and Carol Gee had watercolors accepted in the prestigious
"Watercolor, U.S.A. Exhibition" at the Springfriend Art Mu-

48

at WGC

seum in Springfield, Missouri. Ms. Porschatis' work was
awarded a purchase award as well. Also Jane Williamson
and Donna Brown had watercolor paintings accepted in the
Watercolor Society of Alabama Exhibition held at the Bir-
mingham Museum of Art. Congratulations to these aspiring
professional artists.

An Art Career Workshop was held on campus in which
225 high school students from area schools were actively
involved, producing art under the direction of the art de-
partment faculty.

The Art Department provided a total of twenty-two exhi-
bitions and lectures during the 1979-80 year.

A 171/2' X 9' ceramic mural entitled "Sporangium Dis-
seminating Spores" by Bruce Bobick and Cameron Covert,
was completed and installed in the addition of the library.
In addition, Henry Setter completed a bronze relief of for-
mer WGC president Ingram for whom the library was
named.

Karen Frasse and Dr. Dotti Joiner Serve Crepes on Language Day

Each year the highlight in the Language Department is the
visit of Georgia highschool students and teachers to our
campus on Language Day. On April 6 we had approximate-
ly 280 visitors who enjoyed a lively program of language
competitions, an international concert, and cuisine from
many lands prepared by our resident chefs our own facul-
ty! In the afternoon it was the students' turn to present a
program of songs, recitations, and dramatic sketches, to the
great enjoyment of a capacity audience. Equally successful
later in the spring was the international sidewalk cafe' our
contribution to the Fine Arts Festival. During the regular
academic year and summer school we offer several mini-
blocks in Spanish, French, German, and Latin. These acceler-
ated courses offer students greater flexibility in planning
their language programs, enabling them to complete the
same coursework in half the time. On a social note, our In-
ternational Club has met on several occasions, offering stu-
dents the opportunity to practice their languages and to
meet people from many lands. The small library in the Hu-
manities building is available as a congenial meeting place
for those interested in foreign languages and music. We
look forward to seeing you there!

Over the past several years, the Language Lab has evolved to serve
areas other than just Foreign Languages. In addition to maintaining tapes
and other learning materials for language students, the lab has extensive
holdings in other disiplines as well. Of course when you visit the lab, you
will still find students studying Spanish, French, and German. But don't be
surprised to find others viewing video tapes of speeches; music students
listening to the great composers works; even Business Education students
transcribing shorthand tapes. The lab is continuing to upgrade its equip-
ment and services to better serve both the college and Carroilton com-
munities.

Language students and faculty enjoy a fall quarter reception.

had and they were glad to have gotten through it all. Tim
Chowns, associate professor of geology, believes that, un-
like other schools. West Georgia provides extensive field
experience and cites the four month van/truck excursion
through the western U.S. as one of the best learning exper-
iences that could possibly be provided

STUDENTS

(editor's note): The 172 students pictured in
this section represent less than 10% of the
total student enrollment. It's little wonder
that in many circles West Georgia isn't tak-
en seriously. 4,000 apathy majors can't be
wrong!

And they're off:

Hundreds of students (at right)
surge forth in a race for that coveted
place at the head of the line. The
fight doesn't end there, however. The
students below battle it out at the en-
trance of the Education Center, site
of the quarterly carnage. Once inside,
it's ''hurry up and wait."
