r Fifty Golden Years Of Brevard College History HI Throughout this yearbook we try to present through words and pictures fifty golden years of Brevard College history. To clarify the meaning of the title of our yearbook, we include the foreward from the first edition of the Pertclote. The name of this book signifies our relationship to our big broth- er, Duke University. The title of Duke ' s annual is The Chanti- cleer. In Chaucer ' s old tale, Per- telote was the hen most loved by the valiant Chanticleer. So, since we are in various ways connected with Duke and are particularly of the same reli- gious denomination, we elected to call our annual The Pcrtelotc. The symbol of the Perlelole appeared on the cover of the first edition. Pertelote. the hen. is a character from The Nun ' s Priest ' s Tale In The Canterbury Tales. As part of their determination to produce an outstanding golden anniversary edition. Perte- lote editors Michael Heater and Paige Dickens spend hours looking through past BC yearbooks.

lie history of Brevard College is a rich and excit- ng one beginning in 1853 when Rutherford College nd Weaver College were formed. In 1934 those wo colleges merged on the grounds of Brevard nstitute to create Brevard College. Approaches ind methods have changed, but many of the same deals and philosophies that sprang from those nstitutions are still practiced today at Brevard. As Brevard College continues to prosper it is im- portant that we remember people who gave of themselves as teachers, administrators, stu- dents, and friends, to build a strong viable institu- tion. The following section depicts in part the history of Weaver College, Rutherford College, Brevard Institute, and the first 50 years of Bre- vard College. Brevard College Campus 1983 Brevard College brought me continued knowl- edge, deep friendships and sincere happiness for two short years. It is a shame that only a few chosen people will experience it. It was the hap- piest and most enriching two years of my life. — Kim Gilbert Class of 1983
