Never before have we seen so many students milting around on the quad and packing the dining hail at lunch and dinner. This year's Black Cat Festivities were made even better by the added numbers and enthusiasm brought to the week. iVlaybe one day we won't even be able to fit in the amphitheatre for the traditional Bonfire night of Black Cat Week. Plans for the upcoming years include an astonish- ing 1 ,000 student enrollment by the year 2001 . Some think it will be a miracle to fit all those students, not to mention all the extra Faculty, Staff, and Administration it will require, onto this seemingly tiny campus. Let's ail hope that the Master Plans everyone has been talking about are truly "all that."

However, few students really know the Agnes Scott Master Plans. Contrary to popular belief, the Master Plans are not the geographical layout for a new and improved campus but a concise expression of the ideal Agnes Scott Col- lege and the concrete steps necessary to bring those goals of excellence to full realization. About a dozen architectural projects are now underway to ensure that campus structures reflect the six compre- hensive derivatives approved by the Board of Trustees last May Changes include renovation of McCain Library a new campus center, a new physical plant, new theater and conference facilities near Rebekah, a new dorm, and the now infa- mous parking garage.

    The Classicists of Ohio Wesleyan University: 1844-2014 © Donald Lateiner 2014 When Ohio Wesleyan could hire only four professors to teach in Elliott Hall (and there was yet no other building), one of the four professors taught Latin and another taught Ancient Greek. This I was told in 1979, when I arrived at Sturges Hall to teach the Classics. True or not,1 the story reflects the place of Greek and Latin in the curriculum of the mid-1800s. Our first graduate, William Godman, followed the brutally demanding “classical course.” The percentage of faculty teaching Greek and Latin steadily declined in the Nineteenth and most of the Twentieth century. New subjects and new demands attracted Wesleyan students. Currently we descry another Renaissance of antiquity at Ohio Wesleyan in Classical Studies. Sturges Hall itself was opened in 1855, its original function, as you see in the photo on the left, to serve the campus as library with alcoves divided by subject. Thomas Jefferson and John Quincy Adams studied and revered Greek and Roman writers, their demanding languages, and their culture. Ben Franklin was not interested. For many decades, mere admission to Harvard College required a solid knowledge of Greek and Latin. One of Ohio’s sons who became President of the United States, James A. Garfield, was both a student and a teacher of Greek and Latin. Legend holds that he could write Greek with one hand, Latin with the other--at the same time. I doubt it, but Thucydides tells us humans usually doubt that others can achieve what they know they cannot.

It was great to have hundreds of alumni, friends and families S back on campus for homecoming, and especially meaningful to combine this annual gathering with my formal inauguration as your 21st president. I wanted the weekend to be a celebration of YHC’s rich history and exciting future. I think we accomplished that! My sincere thanks to all who participated in the inauguration and homecoming programs and to all on campus who planned the events and worked so hard to make sure everything flowed smoothly. I also wanted the weekend to benefit YHC, so we combined a great alumni evening with a benefit dinner to raise funds for enhancing the beauty of the campus and planting trees—21 native specimens that will honor the 21 presidents of the college.We raised more than $10,000 in our Gala for Green and will start planting three groves of beautiful, large trees in the spring. If you missed homecoming weekend, you also missed a great opportunity to reflect on our past, present and future. We honored the decades of service by Dr. and Mrs. Harry Hill by naming our newest residence hall for them, we recognized the achievements of many alumni at our Gala for Green, we paid tribute to more than 40 years of dedicated service by the Mullins family, and we looked ahead by breaking ground on a 200-bed residence hall. It was a great weekend of celebration.
