Senior Girls Recognized 2y £L j acuufai6 D cty6ten The annual selection of Milligan ' s Founder ' s Daughter I is one of the most well-known of the school ' s traditions. Any senior girl is eligible to receive this award, and many of the organizations around campus present nominees every year for the position. This year ' s Founder ' s Daughter Convocation had Dr. James Street as the emcee filling in for Eugene Price, who was mourning over a major loss in the recent stock market crash. By Laura Bennett After all the nominees were presented, students cast their votes and anxiously awaited the outcome of the election. At a volleyball game that Friday evening, during Alumni Weekend, Stacy Drogowski was announced the winner, and Amy Sampson was chosen as runner-up. It was a tough choice, and even though only two girls were recognized, many thanks and congratulations go to the other nominees who were chosen as examples of the Milligan spirit!

Authenticity was the most important consideration this December. New roles were created, such as Queen Elizabeth, to provide the audience with a realistic perfor- mance. All those who attended this Christmas season were delighted with the changes made in the production. As in the past Madrigal Dinners were a great success. Milligan College was very privileged to celebrate the Holi- day season with friends and family in the area. Beth Bivins sings ' like a bird ' . Photo by James Rooks Amy Sampson wants to make a toast.
