One of the most significant features of the 1976-77 Agnes Scott Fund was the greater number of alumnae who made gifts to the College. The number reached 3,515 as compared with 2,697 for 1975-76. Alumnae support provided $225,824 which was a major factor again in maintaining the college's financial stability. Included in this amount were three bequests totalling $20,050 and two annuities amounting to $10,000. The major incentive for this increase in donors was the complimentary copy of the new Alumnae Directory given to each alumna making a gift. The thousands of hours of careful preparation which

made the Directory possible is indicative of the fine volunteer support of so many alumnae. In fact, the Agnes Scott Fund itself depends upon more than 500 volunteers as Class Fund Chairmen and Agents who contact the College's 9,000 alumnae. Under the leadership of Diana Dyer Wilson '33 of Winston-Salem as General Chairman and Elizabeth Blackshear (Lib) Flinn '38 of Atlanta as Alumnae Chairman, some 4,531 alumnae and friends gave a total of $737,851 to Agnes Scott in 1976-77. Except for those who preferred to give anonymously, all individuals, foundations and businesses who made their gifts directly to Agnes Scott are listed on the following pages. These donors made their gifts to the College from July 1, 1976, through June 30, 1977; gifts received after the latter date will be shown in the report for 1977-78. The Tower Circle is that group of donors whose gifts were $1,000 or more. Symbols after the other names indicate membership in the other special donor groups: the Colonnade Club (CO for those who gave $500 or more, the Quadrangle Quorum (Q) for donors of $250 or more, and the Century Club (C) for donors of $100 or more. The asterisk (*) in the class listings indicates an alumna who served as a Class Agent for the Fund. The double asterisks (**) indicates donors who are now deceased. Please let the Agnes Scott Fund Office know of any corrections which may be needed so that we can be sure our records are accurate. To worker and donor alike, the entire College General Chairman of The Fund Diana Dyer Wilson attei community welcomes this opportunity to thank you Trustees' meeting with Alex Gaines, left, and A. H. Ster and express our appreciation for your fine response. center. g

This is not a new idea, but it expresses rather a recurrent educational need in our society. It is voiced periodically, usually in times of economic uncertainty or recession and generally in the form of a questioning of the relevance and practical value of traditional baccalaureate education. Indeed, in my inaugural remarks, "... < 2 y/\\ s delivered in the spring of 1 974, I warned of a new manifestation of the impatience or disenchantment with liberal arts education which has been a recurrent phenomenon of American social history." Understandably in times of inflation and unemployment, of an overcrowded job market, students — and their parents — tend to opt for educational training which promises to equip them for entering the job market or the professions. The danger here is that some young people expect a liberal arts education to give them FOR 1976-1977 immediately the kind of marketable skills and vocational training which the liberal arts college, even at its best, has never pretended to offer.

Unfortunately, some of the current advocacy of Agnes Scott is not interested in mediocrity; it has vocational skills on the one hand or liberal arts on the aspired since its founding to excellence — academic and other has implied that they are mutually contradictory. moral. Quality is the essence of our mission as a very As Frederic W.

This past spring the ecology class in the Department of Biology took a field trip to the Sand Hills of south Georgia, the Hatch Nuclear Power Plant, the Okefenokee Swamp, and to the estuaries and coastal areas of northeast Florida. As for new equipment, the Chemistry Department has recently acquired a second PDP-8 mini-computer, donated by Tennecomp, Incorporated, of Oakridge, Tennessee. According to Professor Alice Cunningham, the second computer will allow the Department to use one computer for calculations and programming and the other for gathering data from instruments used in experiments.

Teaching and learning opportunities have not been limited to the campus, however, and Agnes Scott students could be found during the year from the Bahamas to Washington, D. C, pursuing course work in subjects ranging from the fine arts to the natural sciences. Students working in various majors participated in the Washington Semester programs administered by American University in the nation's capital. For example, a biology major studied national policy making in science and technology while other students studied economic policy making, international development, and the processes of national government. In Atlanta two political science majors worked as interns in the Georgia legislature as part of their political science course entitled "The Legislative Process." Sociology students studying deviance developed projects on women and crime for which they talked with Atlanta area police, convicted female prisoners, court officials, probation officers, attorneys, women's rights groups, and other public and private organizations that have contact with female offenders. The Department of Music introduced instruction on the harpsichord and established new Librarian Judith B. Jensen performing groups, including a Recorder Society and a Baroque Ensemble. The Department also sponsored a national composition contest for the best original piece for women's voices. The winning entry is to be published was time for good meals together, some invigorating by a national music publisher. walks, a Saturday night party, and a Sunday morning chapel service. from the enthusiasm, the conferei New teaching resources acquired include valuable Judged was an outstanding success.

is not so large as our last two freshmen classes. Retention of upper classmen has improved, however, and the overall size of the College this fall will be approximately the same as that of last year. We are determined to continue the steady if modest growth in size which our student body has shown since 1974. We are well aware of the factors which militate against such increase today, and we have been studying carefully this summer possible reasons for a somewhat smaller class this fall. While we continue to enroll some sixty percent of candidates to whom we offer admission, our total applicant pool this year was smaller than those of the last two years. After a summer of analysis and study, plus a record amount of preparatory publicity, we are working to regain our momentum in the year ahead. The active cooperation and enthusiasm of faculty, present students, and alumnae are essential in such an undertaking; and we are intensifying our efforts to bring more of these groups into our recruiting program. We have many reasons for encouragement and optimism. One such is the fact that the top high school student in Georgia Director of Public Relations Sara Fountain is entering Agnes Scott this fall.

It is too early yet for definite statistics on activities of t Class of 1977, but there are interesting results available from a questionnaire sent out to the Class of 1976. Of the 121 members of that graduating class, over ninety percen

replied to the questionnaire. Of these 1 12 respondents, sixty-three reported that they were employed, thirty were in graduate school, eleven were not working, and eight were looking for work at the time. In times like these sucl

a record is certainly creditable, indicating as it does that

over four-fifths of the class which responded is either employed or in graduate study.

A college year at Agnes Scott is unfailingly rich in educational and social events which benefit both the College family and the larger Atlanta community. Since

coming to Agnes Scott, it has been my hope to gain increasing recognition for the College as one of the chief cultural centers of the Atlanta area. I believe we are making progress in this respect; certainly campus offerin; during the 1976-77 year in music, art, drama, and public affairs have been of significant number and variety and o high quality.

23 Under the imaginative and energetic leadership of Alumnae Association President Mary Duckworth Gellerstedt, '46, and Director of Alumnae Affairs Virginia Brown McKenzie, '47, the Alumnae Association enjoyed another outstanding year. Once again, I have enjoyed knowing and working with the splendid women, scattered throughout the world today, who are our alumnae. I am especially indebted to the officers of the Association, members of our excellent staff, and many devoted alumnae volunteers everywhere. A landmark this past year was the publication of our first Alumnae Directory in some

twenty-eight years. The decision to distribute it free to all who contributed to the year's Agnes Scott Fund resulted in a dramatic jump in the number of alumnae contributors. Specifically, more than 800 new alumnae contributed to the 1976-77 Fund, an increase of thirty percent over last year. Of our approximately 9,000 living alumnae, thirty- nine percent contributed to the Fund, a jump of nine percent over the preceding year and a very respectable figure indeed for any American college. Alumnae who did not receive a Directory last year may receive a copy this year, while they last, by making a contribution to the 1977-78 Fund.

As a sample of additional achievements of the past year in alumnae activities, let me mention a few specific events. Alumnae Weekend in April brought together more than 700 alumnae, faculty, and staff for class reunions, special celebrations, and the annual meeting and luncheon. At this time Outstanding Alumna Awards were made to Rachel Henderlite, '28 (Distinguished Career); Margaret McDow MacDougall, '24 (Community Service); and Mary West Thatcher, '15 (Service to the College).

The Alumnae Council in October brought back more than 100 alumnae leaders from throughout the country for training sessions and a lively exchange of ideas. Educational seminars were sponsored in Atlanta by the Vice President for Business Affairs Lee A. Barclay Alumnae Association with the following leaders: Dr. Catherine Sims ("Europe since 1945"), Dr. Mary Boney Sheats and Dr. Linda Lentz Woods ("Passages"), Dr. Kwai energy by hundreds of Class Chairmen and Agents for thi Sing Chang ("Hawaii," preparatory to the alumnae trip Fund, and of active members of local, regional, and there).

In the September issue of the President's Newsletter it was my pleasure to introduce five new members of the Board of Trustees, elected at the annual meeting in May. Inasmuch as the newsletter carried pictures and biographical sketches of these new Trustees, I shall merely identify them here and welcome them to a community to which I know they will add fresh vision and strength. They are: G. Conley Ingram, former Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of Georgia and at present a member of the Atlanta law firm of Alston, Miller and Gaines; Harriet M. King, '64, former Assistant Dean of the Emory University Law School and now Associate Professor of Law there; J. Erskine Love, Jr., President of Printpack, Inc., Atlanta; Horace Holden Sibley, a partner in the Atlanta law firm of King and Spalding, and son of Trustee Emeritus John A. Sibley; and the Reverend John Randolph Taylor, pastor of the Myers Park Presbyterian Church of Acting Registrar Lea Ann Grimes '76 Charlotte, North Carolina.

and direction of a college at any given time are much like questions about the purpose of education itself or what constitutes a liberal arts curriculum. They defy pat answers, and sincere respondents who are in general agreement will offer answers which differ in emphasis and details.

Throughout these past four years I have attempted in my public remarks and published reports to enunciate what I conceive to be Agnes Scott's mission and priorities for this decade and the immediate future. For the record, and as a reminder, I want to quote here two statements of our institutional purpose: one general, the other more specific. They are not my words, but they express aims and principles to which I am firmly committed. Each is printed in our current catalog. The first statement comes from the Articles of Incorporation of Agnes Scott College and affirms the Corporation's, i.e. Trustees', purpose to establish and conduct "a liberal arts college for the higher education of young women under auspices distinctly favorable to the maintenance of the faith and practice of the Christian religion." On this affirmation of general purpose, let me comment briefly. First, we interpret the term "young women" very liberally today!

Second, while firmly commited to "auspices . . . favorable to the faith and practice of the Christian religion," Agnes Scott has always been an independent college, free of any public or sectarian control and governed by a self- perpetuating Board of Trustees, membership on which is open to any duly elected person who "shall be in sympathy and accord" with the stated objectives of the College. Third, while proud of its Presbyterian founders and Christian heritage, the College has always been open as the Articles of Incorporation state, "to students of any religion or sect." The same policy applies today to faculty and staff; and all pertinent Agnes Scott publications carry explicit statements of the College's non-discriminatory President Perry charts future. policies with respect to "race, color, creed, and national or ethnic origin."

The second statement of purpose, printed in full in the THE FUTURE: PURPOSE AND College catalog, is as follows: PRIORITIES "In a rapidly changing world of increasing mechanization and complexity, the College continue:

Although involved in serious study during the trip, the group found time for fun. Calling themselves "The Danc- ing Decapods" and naming Dr. Simpson their manager, they improvised skits and songs that they performed spon- taneously whenever the opportunity arose. On the trip were Debbie Ballard, At- lanta, Ga.; Angela Carter, Chipley, Fla.; Carol Corbitt, Anchorage, Alaska; Kathy Fitch, Lexington, Ky.; Laurie Kramer, Vero Beach, Fla.: Beth Mason, Stone Mountain, Ga.; Mary Romeo, Augusta, Ga.; Jennifer Scott, Anniston, Ala.; and Sue Yannone, Grand Forks, Ind. The marine biology course alternates with a summer course in desert biology taught by Dr. Harry Wistrand, assistant professor of biology. The desert biology course takes students through the Chi- huahuan and Sonoran deserts of the southwestern United States.

The prize-winning results of that sug gestion are shown here. Prizes totalin $140 were awarded this fall in th Agnes Scott Student Photography Con test for the best black and white photo graphs of faces, places, and activitie on campus. Judges for the contest were Stev Deal, news photographer with the At lania Journal-Constitution, and Jarro Lindsey, Jr., director of publication and printing at Georgia State Uni versity.

The top prize of $50, for Best i Show, was awarded to Carolyn Pervii a junior from Sylacauga, Alabama, fo

Carolyn also won First Place and cash award of $35 for her picture o a student being carried to the alumna pond for a dunking in celebration o her engagement. Second Place and a cash award o $25 went to Lisa Lee for her pictur of a student walking barefoot in th

Laura Hanson, a sophomore froi Savannah, Georgia, received tw Honorable Mentions. One was for candid shot of a student dressed in Halloween costume and clowning wit a friend, and the other for a pictur of a student studying in bed. Ellen All, a freshman from Marietti Georgia, also received Honorable Met tion. Her still-life photograph symbo izes life at Agnes Scott.

Economics is of a double nature, is a social science and, as such, tempts disinterested objectivity. But

is also a moral philosophy, and for ; of our search for the "truth" in soci causality, the attractiveness of nomics as a study must also be f its humane content. John Mayna

Keynes noted that economics is easy subject, at which very few excel He explains as follows:

The paradox finds its explanation, perhaps, in that the master-economist must possess a rare combination of gifts. He must reach a high standard in several different directions and must combine talents not often found together. He must be a mathema- tician, historian, statesman, philoso- pher — in some degree. He must con- template the particular in terms of the general, and touch abstract and con- crete in the same flight of thought. He must study the present in the light of the past for the purposes of the future. No part of man's nature or his institutions must lie entirely outside his regard. He must be pur- poseful and disinterested in a simul- taneous mood; as aloof and incor- ruptible as an artist, yet sometimes as near the earth as a politician.! Given Keynes' catalogue of ingredier required for the mix which is to rest

in economic genius, is it any wond that those who would teach such subject should feel most at home with an institution bound and dedicated the living of the liberal arts traditio

PREPARATORY PROGRAM FOR BUSINESS For students interested in business careers, the College has selected from its curriculum a group of courses designed to familiarize them with the skills and knowledge to facilitate their entrance into business.

The Program does not alter requirements for graduation; nor does it

constitute a major. Rather, it is designed to serve as an academic bridge from an undergraduate liberal arts curriculum into business careers. Students who choose to follow the Program will complete nine of the courses listed below, including work from at least three disciplines and including Economics 204, 205, and 311. In addition, they will complete Mathematics 101 or Mathematics 120. Their official transcript will carry the notation that they have completed the Preparatory Program for Business.

Dr. Copple writes a weekly column for the Highlands, N.C., Highlander. A collection of his columns entitled One Man's Highlands was recently

published. He is a long-time fan of Emily Dickinson's poetry, which was the subject of his English dissertation, and in 1976, he conducted a con- tinuing education program on Dickin- son for alumnae. He also enjoys gar- dening, genealogy, and bridge. He plays bridge weekly with a faculty four- some consisting of Mollie Merrick. Leland Staven, Linda Woods, and him- self. On Saturdays he leads a campus bridge class for interested students.

Dr. Copple is a native of Albermarle, N.C. He and his family maintain a summer residence in Highlands, N.C.

His wife, Margaret, is a psychiatric nurse at DeKalb General Hospital and is also a pianist with a master's degree in music.

1889-1978

By Eleanor Huuhcns '40

A COLLEGE lives in its members. The buildings, the endowment, the library collection amount only to what they are used for. The curriculum, the fac- ulty, the administration, and the student body, all subject to change, can lose their distinctive composition unless enough of them, and enough alumnae and trustees, carry the idea of the col-

lege in them and keep putting it into effect. These thoughts, summoned by the death of Mary Wallace Kirk, lead to a serious question: how many sur-

vivors will it take to carry the share of Agnes Scott she kept alive? She was a trustee for more than sixty years, possibly longer than anyone else has ever served on the board of a

college. Nobody is in a position to know all she did for Agnes Scott. Each of the four presidents, each of the board chairmen except the first (George Washington Scott) shared part of her

tenure, hut no official shared it all. Several times a year, for generations, she traveled the three hundred miles from her home to the campus, not only for meetings of the whole board but for vital committee sessions at which the course of the college was set and maintained. As a nile. she came sev- eral days in advance. She staved at the Alumnae House and spent three days visiting everybody she knew on campus — and she always knew a good cross- section — to sound out the current state of affairs. These interviews were full of merriment but also doubly charged with purpose: Mary Wallace found out what was going on at the College and she broached, to the people she saw, the issues facing the board and the complexity of the questions the board had to decide. By the time of the meet- ing, she was ready to take an informed

part in the discussion and to bring to it a sense of campus attitudes toward the matters in hand.

Student Interns with Count}^ Government

Agnes Scott students may, with fac- ulty approval, design their own work internships related to their academic studies. Cheryl Houy, a senior political science major, has developed an intern- ship with the government of DeKalb

County, in which the College is located.

She is working for DeKalb County Commissioner Lianc Levctan under the academic supervision of Dr. Gus Coch- ran of the Agnes Scott History and Political Science Department. As an intern, Cheryl spend part of her time in the DeKalh Coimty Court- house in Decatur, only three blocks from the Agnes Scott campus. She said she accompanies Mrs. Levetan "to all the meetings, including county commis- sion meetings and hearings closed to the public. "On some days," Cheryl said, "I go into downtown Atlanta to the State Capitol to help Mrs. Levctan lobby in the State Legislature for or against bills affecting DeKalb County. At other

times I handle public relations activi- ties and inquiries from Mrs. Levetan's

constituents."

American literature on the basis of courses they took as undergraduates. Many of them based their doctoral dissertations on topics they first worked on at Agnes Scott in independent study or in a particular course. A director of graduate studies at a leading mid- western university recently annoimced to his class of first year graduate stu- dents that the best prepared students in their graduate English program came from Agnes Scott. With a curriculum that has proved to be excellent preparation for the pro- fessions without being pre-professional, the department thinks that this curricu- lum is also good preparation for our majors who plan to enter careers in business or industry on the managerial level. The department is emphasizing to its majors the value of their kind of education to a career of leadership in business and we are making efforts to alert business leaders in the community to the quality of our majors. For next year we are planning an "internship" or "on-job experience" for one or two of our outstanding majors for the final quarter of the senior year. We hope to place these students with publishing houses, newspapers, magazines, public relations or advertising firms, or specif- periodic collection of academic verse.

In addition, there is a prize offered by the College to the winner of the fiction contest and honoring Janef Preston. In 1976, Eleanor Hutchens, an alumna and former member of the English faculty, established two prizes of $100 each in honor of her grandparents for the best short story and best poem sub- mitted to the Festival each year. With the outstanding guests v/e bring each year and the handsome prizes awarded, the number of students from Georgia colleges and universities competing at the Festival continues to increase and the quality of work submitted to im- prove. Anticipating Miss Trotter's retire- ment in June 1977, the English depart- ment planned the Writers' Festival that year in her honor. Considering the nature of this occasion, we asked Miss Pat Pinka leaches seventeenth-century English prose and poetry.
