Flora Edwards To Dr. Earl Strickland for years of continuous service to the Wesleyan community and to the Green Knight Class of 1984. We salute you for your achievements and loyalty and dedicate the 1984 Veterropt in your honor. Foreword Wcslcyanncs have always felt that they were a part of something spe¬ cial. Through our four years here we become not just college graduates but Wcslcynnnes. We take pride in this title and in Wesleyan. But what makes our school so unique, so near and dear to us? It is not any one object or person; not the fountain or a certain friend or pro¬ fessor which makes Wesleyan, well, Wesleyan for so many of us. By the time we leave Wesleyan we have transformed it from a mere campus into the embodiment of all our memories of four years of our lives. It is this which makes Wesleyan so special. How does one arrive at this special feeling of Wesleyan? Well, it takes years of practice — years of studies — sometimes difficult and frustrat¬ ing but always worthwhile; years of friendship with girls who become closer than sisters. The sisterhood and heritage of Wesleyan are princi¬ pal reasons why we take pride in our college. It is the intention of the 1984 Ve- terropt staff to emphasize these unique qualities in a humorous yet quite serious way. We have taken as examples qualities which we feel are representative of Wesleyan and illus¬ trate the true qualities of Wes- leyannes. We hope you enjoy it.

How To Wesleyan: An Introduction College is a time of transition — an interim period between adolesccnse and adulthood. It is a time of changes in personality, at¬ titudes, expectations, and goals. As a period of transition, college is necessarily a time of conflicts and contrasts. The four years are filled with times which are a mix¬ ture both of what has been and what will be. We each must pre¬ pare for this time in our own way. Choices must be made. The first step in the long road to graduation begins with a choice. Our choice was Wesleyan. In making this decision we consid¬ ered Wesleyan in all its aspects; its proud past as well as its opti¬ mistic future. In fact, in consider¬ ing Wesleyan we saw what it meant to be a Wesleyanne. We chose this for ourselves. And by so choosing, we became one. Becoming a Wesleyanne is not a tangible process but an intangi¬ ble one. It is an attitude — a feel¬ ing; one in which we all share. All Wesleyannes are indivi¬ duals who share a common bond of sisterhood. This bond is com¬ posed of qualities unique to each which, through sisterhood, gain unity. This unity, expressed through our ideals, our unique in¬ terpretations of valued traditions, and our individuality, is ... How to Wesleyan. Clockwise from above: 1.

Purple Knights, Tri-K ' s, and Green Knights take a moment to pose for a mug shot. Dressing At Wesleyan Dressing at Wesleyan isn ' t very difficult. A flair for color, texture, and style is helpful but not absolutely necessary. The one absolute requirement for proper attire at Wes¬ leyan is a knack for knowing what ' s right for you. Another important factor in dressing at Wes¬ leyan is to fit the occa¬ sion. After all, your new Yves St. Laurent blouse and Gloria Vanderbilt jeans wouldn ' t do for a night out at Sooper Scooper. Or would it? Clockwise from above: 1. The Lucy Lester Willet Memorial Library decorat¬ ed for Christmas. 2. This peaceful lake scene reminds us that the out doors is just steps away for any Wesleyanne. 3. A familiar scene — most Wcsleyannes visit their post office boxes several times a day in hopes of mail. 4. The Wesleyan Washboard Band draws a large crowd in Rec Room. 8 I Step One: Ideals Developing lasting ideals is a part of maturing. Our ideals guide our everyday life and conduct, lead us to set relevant goals for our futures, and play an important part in deter¬ mining our values. At Wesleyan, our ideals are shown in the manner in which we accept responsibility, the activities in which we participate, and the enthusiasm with which we both lead and follow. Though our goals may differ, our ideals are common to each of us and form a unity among us. The ideals we share are the timeless ideals of all Wesleyannes: they are the founda¬ tion upon which Wesleyan sister¬ hood rests. The quest for knowledge and truth, respect and concern for others, pride in achievement, the dignity of effort even when rewards are small, dedication to service, and loyalty to both our sisters and ourselves are the lasting ideals of Wesleyan. Our faith in and dedication to these goals while at Wesleyan and throughout our lives are the means by which we say to Wesleyan, “Thine ideals are honored. ” 9 Clockwise from right: I. Page Clements gives her rendition of the now famous announcements ses¬ sion. 2 PKs and GHs demonstrate one of Wes¬ leyan’s most spirited traditions. 3. Democratic elections arc important in Wesleyan’s traditions. 4. The fountain plays an important part in many of our traditions. hi Step 4 Traditions With Wesleyan ' s unique heritage as a forerunner in women ' s education, it is only natural that activities which were once regarded as precedents have gradually evolved into Wesleyan tradi¬ tions. These traditions and Wesleyan ' s past are venerated by all Wcsleyannes, as they should be. We are all proud of our college ' s prestigious heritage and respect the traditions which have come to symbolize this past. Without this respect and pride Wes¬ leyan traditions would become mere empty symbols and meaningless repeti¬ tions. Our honor of our heritage, how¬ ever, transforms these traditions into something more. At Wesleyan, tradi¬ tions become the outward manifesta¬ tion of our acceptance of Wesleyan ideals, of her past and her future. They are the personification of Wesleyan and the means by which we learn How to Wesleyan. 11 Step 3 Individuality As wc have been reminded since childhood, each of us is a unique in¬ dividual. At Wesleyan, however, this individuality becomes an integral part of our lives. Wc all live in the same environment, participate in the same activities, dine in the same cafeteria, and attend classes in the same buildings. Without the individ¬ uality of each Wcslcyannc, life here would soon settle into a stifling monotone. Because the uniqueness of each of us adds into every event on campus, however, Wesleyan life is not a con¬ tinuous routine but a constantly varying kaleidescope. The creativity of each combines to make every event, every activity, every tradition, and every day an exciting challenge. Utilizing our unique ideas, feel¬ ings, actions, and reactions to the routine of classes, extracurricular activities, and special events, each of us adds a personal and individual touch to life at Wesleyan. - 1 Clockwise from above: I.

For many years the identities of these mysterious people have been concealed from the Wesley¬ an community. Through detailed inves¬ tigative reporting and daring escapades of espionage, we have uncovered their secret identities. The appalling fact is that they have been right here under our very noses all along, quietly assum¬ ing their aliases to such an extent that we did not even suspect their underlying purpose. Sneakily fulfilling their impos¬ sible mission to educate, instruct, and aid the students at Wesleyan, they move among us, confident in our lack of suspicion. We must admire the single- minded determination these agents show as they execute this painstaking process. Our hats are off to you profes¬ sors, administration, and staff, a.k.a._ The Informers. Patricia S’ Durrette Adm. Asst, to the President Dorothy Riley Coordinator of the Calendar Dr. J. Frederick Wilson Interim President m The Informers Dr. Kayron McMinn Mary Hatfield Herbert C. Mudie Dean of the College Dean Of Student Services Dean Of Admissions Ackerman Elected The election of Dr. Robert K. Ackerman as Wesleyan’s 22nd President was announced at a called meeting of the Wesleyan Board of Trustees on December 16, 1983. It was then announced that Dr. Ackerman would assume his duties in June, 1984 after the conclusion of his responsibilities at Drew University where Ackerman served as Dean of the College of Liberal Arts. The selection of Dr. Ackerman brought to an end an exhaustive nine month search for a new president to succeed Dr. Fred W. Hicks who resigned his position in the spring of Reasons cited for the selection of Acker¬ man from an extensive list of qualified candi¬ dates were his scholarship, his administrative experience, his strong ties and dedication to the United Methodist Church, and his strong support of liberal arts education. Since his eleetton. Dr. Ackerman has also shown a sin¬ cere interest in Wesleyan, its traditions, and the needs of its students and faculty. Evidence of this interest include Dr. Ackerman ' s many visits to Wesleyan to confer with students, faculty, and parents. The Vcterropt joins the Wesleyan community in issuing a warm wel¬ come to Dr. Ackerman. The Vcterropt would also like to pay special recognition to several people whose devotion to Wesleyan during this difficult time was ad¬ mirable. The Trustee Search Committee, headed by Valeria McCullough Murphcy, ' 48. did an outstanding job in the performance of its duties. Also deserving recognition is Dr. J. Frederick Wilson who served as Interim Presi¬ dent for the 1983-84 college year. Dr. Wil¬ son ' s exemplary service to Wesleyan and his concern for the students ' welfare during his presidency have earned him the love and re¬ spect of the entire Wesleyan community. He merits the highest praise we can give him — he has shown us How to Wesleyan. 53 Administration Cheryl Jean Secretary to Academic Dean Nancy Roberts Asst, to Dean of Student Services Sally R.

Almost daily, students are tested in some way. Professors quiz, test, and probe students’ minds in discussion sessions. This type of eval¬ uation is invaluable for the students. It aids them in solidifying information they have cov¬ ered, helps them to conceptualize ideas, and improves their analytical skills. Testing in its various forms also assists students by provid¬ ing needed motivation to study their class ma¬ terial. Students thrive on this pressure — they even pay tuition to get it. Faculty members, however, are deprived of this valuable motivation to learn. In order to keep up with their courses, the faculty mem¬ bers must necessarily do their research, but how do we know they arc learning anything? Salaries are supposed to be incentives, but psychology has already proven money to be a less effective reward than the intrinsic re¬ wards such as students receive. The Vettcropt staff has a proposal which we hope will remedy the faculty’s terrible dilem¬ ma. They have gone long enough with only mere money as a stimulus for their studies. We say let them enjoy the privileges of a student. Granted, they do not pay for this advantage as students must: but we are good guys. The test below is an example of the ones which we hope will soon benefit the minds of Wesleyan professors on an annual basis. We rest assured that this tactic will provide the much desired motivation and we are confident that the faculty members will enjoy this chal¬ lenge every bit as much as students enjoy the tests of the faculty. Despite the obvious intrinsic rewards the faculty will receive from exams such as these. we hope the administration will still demand that professors accept their salaries. After all, someone has to keep up the capitalist system. F.A.C.T. (Faculty All-Comprehensive Test) Instructions: Read each question carefully. Answer all questions.

This course of study not only involved a myriad of activi¬ ties and events — it concerned groups as well. Within groups we may participate in the many activities offered on the Wesleyan Campus, but it is also im¬ portant for us to ally ourselves within groups for other reasons. By defining our area of interest, organizations aid us in identifying and clarifying our self-awareness. Wesleyan Life is a curious assort¬ ment of traditions, special events, or¬ ganized activities, social interaction, and such mundane occurrences as classes, dorm life, and the everyday course of life. As the sum of all that takes place on the Wesleyan campus, Wesleyan Life teaches an important lesson and records an important hap¬ pening — How Wc Wesleyaned in 1983-84. presents y es i e yan Life ices were only Together. Wesleyan Life and Or¬ ganizations form a vital part of our existence at Wesleyan. “The Social Sciences synthesizes all that is 1 Wesleyan.

September Introduces Wesleyan Life The month of September provided bountiful learning experiences for Wesleyannes, both old and new. The most obvious were academic in na¬ ture, with classes beginning on Sep¬ tember 1. For freshmen and other new students, there were also the dreaded but instructiv e Freshmen Seminars. CSA and CRC both pro¬ vided opportunities for learning and social interaction with the Campus¬ wide Day at the River on September 3, and the Meet-Your-Ministers Pic¬ nic by the lake on the evening of September 1. Campus CAPERS Day took place on Labor Day and was a welcome release from the ten¬ sion of returning to school. Fall Convocation officially set in motion the academic year on Sep¬ tember 8. Soon after, CSA held a reception for all new students in the Oval Hall. The purpose of the event was to acquaint the new Wes¬ leyannes with the functions fulfilled by CSA on the campus. The Georgia Writers Series opened for the year with a talk by Jean Sterrett, actress, director, and writer. Amidst this atmosphere of new ex¬ periences and learning opportunities, the Purple Knights, dissatisfied with the freshman class ' understanding of the Wesleyan spirit, undertook the tutelage of the younger students in life Wesleyanne. The Golden Hearts, already straining under their load of classes, seminars, and campus activi¬ ties, were understandably dismayed but came through their crash train¬ ing program like true Wesleyannes. By the end of September, with the routine of things beginning to sink in, the time was appropriate for new activities. Soccer practice filled this void as the 1983 soccer season warmed up. With September, the 1983-84 year was underway. September was a time of beginning and of learning, of meeting and of reuniting. Sister¬ hood, teamwork, scholarship, and friendship had been proven the keys to Wesleyan life. 73 From The Beginning v I New Faces, New Classes, And New Activities Traditionally, September for col- wide Day at the River, centered at lege students is a time of rebirth and of new challenges. Some of us return after a long summer break to resume our studies; others of us arrive to face college life for the first time. Regardless of whether we are return¬ ing Wcslcyannes or freshmen, how¬ ever, the month of September brings new opportunities, new activities, new friends, and new possibilities. With classes beginning on the first day of the month, academics played a key role in September activities. Registration, classes, and Drop Add filled a gre at part of our time during the month. Convocation ceremonies on September 8 took place with Dr. Frederick K. Wilson, Acting Presi¬ dent of Wesleyan, delivering the key¬ note address. Soon after Convoca¬ tion, the Georgia Writers Series be¬ gan for the 1983-84 year. The series, sponsored by the Wesleyan English Department, monthly brings Geor¬ gia authors of note and interest to the Wesleyan campus for speaking engagements. The first speaker of the series was Jean Sterrctt, actress, director, and writer. Social and religious activities were also offered during the month. CRC opened its activities for the year with the Meet-Your-Ministers Picnic by the lake. Ministers of many denomi¬ nations and faiths were present to talk to Wcslcyannes about their var- Wiggley ' s River House, created a sunny and fun-filled atmosphere concucivc for old and new Wes- leyannes to become acquainted. Next, CSA presented the annual Fall Fashion Show, previewing styles from several Macon merchants which promised to be popular in the fall. On the eleventh, CSA Hosted a reception for all new students to in¬ troduce them to CSA activities on the Wesleyan campus. At the end of the month, Wesleyannes were treat¬ ed to a “Welcome Back to College Mixer at NBC Lounge. SRC became active during the month with the sponsorship of Cam¬ pus CAPERS Day, in conjunction with the Office of Student Services. The day featured a series of fun- filled outdoor activities plus a picnic by the lake. Also on the SRC agenda for September were movies, and archery, October Marathon, and soccer signups. Soccer practice be¬ gan on the twenty-sixth with SRC conducting both practice and rules sessions. After a certain tradition, soon to be described, had been carried out, life on the Wesleyan campus settled into a steady routine. By the end of September, most of us had either re- acquainted or accustomed ourselves to Wesleyan life and the customary upheavals which accompany novelty ious churches and young adu nro 3 ?

September - — From The Beginning PKs Join In On Freshman Orientation Although many freshmen had no¬ ticed the dark circles and the slug¬ gish day-time attitudes of their new¬ ly-made sophomore friends for sev¬ eral days, they little expected that the repercussions from this lack of sleep would soon be exacted on their own heads. Many rumors as to the cause of this abnormal behavior cir¬ culated through Persons Dorm, but the only possible answer for the Pur¬ ple Knights Dr. Jeyklc-Mr. Hyde be¬ havior seem to be a collective psy¬ chotic break. Amid speculations such as these, the Golden Hearts waited with bated breath for what promised to be a dramatic conclu¬ sion. The complete break finally did come late one evening, although the freshmen little knew that the episode was only the beginning of their trou¬ bles. On this fateful night, the Gold¬ en Hearts witnessed the PKs open admission of their darker natures. Replete in outfits to accomodate their new personalities, the Purple Knights stormed the GH Tri-K Pep Rally, taunting and threatening the young freshmen. Fortunately, the hardy Tri-Ks were on the scene and acted as a buffer between the nasty Purple Knights and the valiant young group. Finally, the PKs, disgruntled that their dastardly plans were being foiled, were driven away by the in¬ cessant spirit of the new Golden Hearts. The shaken young class ral¬ lied themselves together and pre¬ pared themselves for future distur¬ bances as the last parting shot by the PKs had been a promise to return.

Forced to re¬ strain themselves on front campus, the Purple Knights compensated by giving the Golden Hearts an under¬ stated “cold shoulder for several days. When the Golden Hearts were further harassed by being forced to watch one of the cruel rituals of the newly-demented PKs, their suspi¬ cions of lunacy were confirmed. On their guard now, the freshmen were less surprised and better equipped the next time the PKs ar¬ rived and even learned that being kidnapped could be fun. Realizing that breaking the indomitable spirit of the GHs would be more difficult than expected, the malicious invad¬ ers soon took more drastic measures. Only now did the young freshmen realize the depth of the insanity which had washed over the entire PK class. All that had gone before was deemed insignificant by the GHs when they compared it to the horrors rampant in the PKs new “home , to which the freshmen were rather forcefully invited. The horrors continued as the PKs next performed a secret death cere¬ mony. Realization, however, began to dawn upon the freshmen class as they saw that the frantic episodes were only the manner in which the PKs, in a somewhat demented fash¬ ion, had carried out in order to ac¬ cept the new Golden Hearts. By eu¬ logizing the Class of 1983, the Cere¬ mony had allowed the PKs to accept the Golden Hearts as true Wcs- leyannes. The Purple Knights now showed their true colors to the Golden Hearts as they doffed their ghastly habits and welcomed the freshmen to Wesleyan. A traditional trip to Krys¬ tal followed. The night and the next day were spent in a joyous reunion between the two classes. From The Beginning Golden Hearts Gain Acceptance Soon, however, the cold early light of reality washed over the Golden Hearts as they realized that the Pur¬ ple Knights had once again relapsed into their psychotic frenzy. Not only did the freshmen learn that sopho¬ more did not respect dorm noise reg¬ ulations, the Golden Hearts saw that the PKs had slipped entirely over the edge. Attempting to humor the group’s idiosyncracies at so young an hour was difficult, however, the freshmen managed to survive and even bear up under their captors’ mistreatments. Toying with the young captives like rais, me rurplc Knights at first n leased the GHs and then later r. turned for one final humiliation. At last, the Purple Knights mar aged to control their psychoses. R turning m peace bearing gifts, th Purple Knights offered to the Golc en Hearts Wesleyan sisterhood. A ast understanding the urgency of th PK mission, the Golden Hearts for gave the PKs for their eccentricitic in pusuit of their goal.

The month was packed full of activity beginning with the October Marathon. The Marathon consists of several sports events such as swimming and run¬ ning. Participants have the entire month to complete their events. Next on the calendar, the seniors gave a Stunt presentation for the Freshmen. The GKs attempted to pass on the spirit of Wesleyan’s “main event to the Golden Hearts. Later in the month, the Freshmen proved they had learned well when they elected their Stunt committee. The four class committees then set to work on the March event. Another event important to Wes¬ leyan occurred in October, it was the theater department’s presentation of the play The Mongoose Always Wins. Written by Wesleyan student Michael McKinney, the play illus¬ trated many facets of Wesleyan’s tal¬ ented theater staff and students. The early part of October’s calen¬ dar was rounded out by many club- sponsored events. CRC and Red Cross sponsored a Blood Drive, SRC’s Pool Tournament got under¬ way, and CSA’s New York fashion show was a big success. The Business Club presented special speakers: Faye Popper and Rick King from Merrill-Lynch spoke on You and Your Money. The Art Club’s contri¬ bution for October was a presenta¬ tion by Robert Reedy, a renowned ceramic artist. 83 4 Fathers And Daughters Square Off One of the most important events lor the daughters at Wesleyan oc¬ curs m mid-October.

Each year, CSA outdoes itself by organizing the events for this special weekend. The 1983 Father Daughter Weekend began with a picnic at the lake with entertainment supplied by the Washboard Band. The Washboard Band has found that fathers are the best victims as well as the best sports for their fun songs. The high point of the weekend was the square dance. Everyone appreci¬ ated CSA’s hard work.

The English De¬ partment continued the Georgia Writers series with Michael Bishop, winner of the 1982 Nebula Award for Science Fiction for his book. No Enemy But Time. The Belk Lectures followed with speaker Theodore Runyon. On the lighter side, Wesleyannes began the annual Ping Pong Tourna¬ ment and the very popular soccer season began. October 20th brought Prospective students on campus fol¬ lowed on the 21st by the Fall Dance with the band. Chain Reaction. Due to Wesleyan spirit and the beat of the band, the fall dance was a great success. The fall makeover as well as the fall dance were two examples of CSA ' s activities for Wesleyan stu¬ dents for October. The seniors showed their spirit to us all, very early on Friday morning the 28th, with the annual senior skip day. October also saw the implemen¬ tation of a new recreation form on campus. With the use of the new VCR and big screen TV, Tuesday Night at the Movies became a popu¬ lar event on campus. SGA Spon¬ sored Tom Garguito to speak on Subliminal Seduction which led us to the climatic conclusion of October — Halloween The Halloween festivities began with the Programs and Exhibition ' s movie Theatre of Blood starring Vin¬ cent Price, now of Thriller fame. More Halloween festivities contin¬ ued with the Halloween Costume Banquet and finally the long awaited Witches rise. Each year 10 senior witches rise from the mists of the lake and terrorize willing victims, forcing them to leave their classes and doosing Westleyannes with wa¬ ter — to the enjoyment of all.

November 1st brought the first annual Club Fair in which the wide variety of clubs on campus set up displays and tables to let everyone know what their club was about. The Wash¬ board Band performed and the Club Fair was a success. It will hopefully become a part of Wesleyan activities for years to come. The next week was one of the most popular of the year. Homecoming festivities began on Wednesday night with the school-wide pep rally. The seniors marched up looking very similar to a certain Korean Surgical Hospital group we all recognized. Calling themselves M A S H 4077 — The Wesleyan Chapter, the GKs joined the other three classes to sing homemade words to popular songs. All four classes showed their spirit and sisterhood through the hilarious¬ ly funny songs and the more serious tear-jerkers. Since the Golden Hearts outnumbered the other three classes combined, no one was sur¬ prised that their version of Billy Joel’s Uptown Girl literally blew the lid off the loggia. The next big event on the campus calendar was set for Friday at noon with Color Rush. A great and unique Wesleyan tradition. Color Rush 1983 continued this spirited tradi¬ tion. Sisterhood was truly shown when the Purple Knights shed their purple and revealed green under¬ neath. The PKs proceeded to rush green to their big sisters’ quarter of the field. The Golden Hearts showed their gold and came away winning Color Rush. Homecoming ' 83 was well on its way. Wesleyan Life Club Fair . . Homecoming Pep Rally . . .

The Consolation Match pitted the GKs against the GHs. The Championship game became a duel for the cup between the Tri-Ks and the Purple Knights. After a valiant effort by the sophomores, the juniors came away with their second cham- The Air pionship victory and took with them the Soccer Cup. The PKs earned themselves the Soccer Spirit Cup for their spirited antics on the field. The fans showed their spirit through cheering and various side¬ line activities. Although the compe¬ tition for the prized cups was intense, a spirit of friendship pervaded the players as well as the fans. ■ ! m m 91 4 November Dance The The four classes gathered to wel¬ come and honor the Class of ' 83 as they returned to Wesleyan for their homecoming. During the Homecom¬ ing banquet. Cyndi Bell, president of the Golden Hearts of ' 83 spoke, fol¬ lowed by the four class presidents, Val Marshbourne (GK), Linda Chick (Tri-K), Ann Marie Parker (PK), and Amy Kreuger (GH ' 87). Loretta Pinkston then presented the Soccer Awards for most valuable player and best sport from each class. The freshmen should be ap¬ plauded for their excellent job of decorating the dining hall and the entire campus for this special week¬ end. Night Away Following the banquet, the Home¬ coming court was presented around the fountain. Dr. Frederick Wilson crowned Mary Ann Cunningham Homecoming Queen for 1983. Later that evening, the campus turned out for the Homecoming dance in the Anderson dining hall. CSA supplied the band. The Chap - parra s , and the balloons which floated on the ceiling added to the excitement. The Homecoming Dance supplied an opportunity for old friends to reunite, dates to arrive, and gave the freshmen their first taste of a full-fledged Wesleyan bash. Again, CSA should be con¬ gratulated for a job well done. Showing Your Spirit The Campus Comes Alive November was packed full of ac¬ tivity. The Tennis team was especial¬ ly busy with many matches with oth¬ er colleges in the area. Under the direction of Dr. John Hemphill, the team travlcd to other schools and also hosted teams at Wesleyan. Dance Alive, a professional tour¬ ing dance ensemble, came to campus to perform in November.

Christmas break Dr. Robert Ackerman elected as Wesleyan’s new president .., Christmas After the hectic pace of October and November, December offered some relief in extracurricular activi¬ ties. As preparations were made for finals and the Christmas break, so¬ cial activities, except for Christmas festivities, tapered off. There were, however, some exciting happenings during the first few days of De¬ cember. Art professor Scott Duce opened an exhibit of his paintings and drawings. On December 4th, the Wesleyan Glee Club and the Wes¬ leyannes presented their annual Christmas Concert. This concert is open to the public and has become a traditional part of Macon’s Christ¬ mas celebration. Another important event for Wes¬ leyan occurcd in December with the election of Dr. Robert Ackerman as the new President of the College. Dr. Ackerman’s appointment represent¬ ed an exhaustive search conducted by the Presidential Search Commit- Happenings te e. Dr. Ackerman was slated to take office during the summer of 1984. Another annual event at Wesleyan is the Christmas banquet. The ban¬ quet is the highlight of Christmas for the students on campus. The food service should be commended for the fine array of food and the decora¬ tions for the formal dinner. During the banquet, Wesleyan ' s own Santa Claus appeared to pass out candy to all the students. Ed Starling played his role of Santa very well as he pre¬ sented the students with a giant pop¬ corn popper for the Rec Room. The popcorn popper was purchased by the school to accompany Tuesday Night at the Movies. The students were pleased with the banquet and gift. Following the banquet, the Christmas service con¬ tinued with the reading of the story and trimming of the big tree in Bur¬ den Parlor. Clockwise from left: I.

Ex¬ changing gifts and attending parties with friends rounded out the time before, during, and after final exams. Finals require a lot of hard work and dedication and after a long, hard semester, Christmas break is a wel¬ come relief. After bidding farewell to friends and faculty, the students take off for home and a well-de¬ served rest before returning to cam¬ pus in January to start a new year and semester.

Classes began and ev¬ eryone busied themselves with the new year and new semester. The first item on the agenda for January was a water-color workshop by Alex Powers. This was one of the many such events sponsored by Wesleyan’s art department. The next big event on campus, es¬ pecially for the seniors, was Career Day. Career Day participants con¬ sisted of representatives from var¬ ious organizations and companies from all over the state. These repre¬ sentatives set up appointments to speak with the students, accept ap¬ plications and to give the students information on their organizations. Career Day helped students to use interviewing skills and gain useful knowledge to aid them in their job search. Thanks should go to Virginia Berlin for her work in organizing Ca¬ reer Day. 5 l • I ■ Starting A New Year 102 L January I b Back In The Swing Of Things The middle of January brought Doug Howell to campus.

Spring Break Sophomore Art Exhibit Monica Kaufman Spring Concert Wriggley’s River House Spring Court Spring Dance Spring Has Sprung The March Menu offered a verita¬ ble Smorgasboard of exciting activi¬ ties. Events ranging from academic lectures, art exhibits, and a PS week¬ end to Stunt, Spring break and the Spring Dance promised that every appetite would be satisfield. The focal point of the month was of course Stunt — the last flurry of dress rehearsal and the excitement of performances. Stunt Weekend was capped with a Prospective Student visit as well as Parents ' Weekend in order to bring everyone to campus to share in the excitement. The winds of March quickly swept Stunt Night ' 84 into memories as other important events took their place in the spotlight. As the election results for 1984-85 Wesleyan posi¬ tions were tallied, newly elected offi¬ cers and board members underwent diligent SGA Retreat sessions to map out plans for the upcoming year. This hard work was soon rewarded as Spring Break ’84 arrived. Head¬ ing for home, the beach and other vacation spots relieved the tensions of the previous fast-paced weeks. Classes resumed mid-month with the Sophomore Art Exhibit and lec¬ tures by WSB Atlanta anchorperson Monica Kaufman and Dr. Ellis Ev¬ ans taking top billing. At the end of the month, a series of entertainment events captured Wcsleyannc ' s atten¬ tions. A very popular barbeque at Wrigglcy ' s River House kicked off Spring Weekend and was followed by the court presentation. Senior Page Clements was crowned 1984 Spring Queen as court members from each class looked on. Later in the day, the Spring Dance was held at Northsidc Country Club. CSA sponsored the first annual Spring Fling. Students, faculty, and visitors enjoyed Dr Curry ' s barbeque as well as softball, volleyball and many other activities. Stunt In October, the four classes met at the same time in four designated places to elect five people who would work together to create a unique pre¬ sentation. The complete responsibil¬ ity for organizing and planning in detail thirty minutes of entertain¬ ment to be judged on the basis of production rests with these five girls and the president of each class. Devoting endless hours to serve on Stunt committee holds no tangible reward — not even the Stunt Cup can justify the time, energy, and thought that went into the writing of a Stunt. The committee has its prob¬ lems of various dimensions, but with¬ in that group insights into human un¬ derstanding usually take place. Be¬ ing a part of this effort is an enrich¬ ing experience. The four Stunt Committees were busy the following weeks as a multi¬ tude of ideas for plots were discussed and tossed out until finally one was chosen. The committee members continued to work, writing and re¬ writing, always anticipating that fi¬ nal peak of perfection. The Stunt Committees chose the following people to serve as an advi¬ sory committee for the Stunts: Dr. Fletcher Anderson, Professor of Mu¬ sic; Dr. Earl Bargainnier, Professor of English and Literature; Mr. George McKinney, Professor of Theatre; Dr. Marcille Taylor, Pro¬ fessor of History; and Mr. Art Wergcr, Professor of Art. The pur¬ pose of the faculty Advisory Com¬ mittee is to offer suggestions and constructive criticism concerning the Stunts to each class committee. On February 12 the Stunts were read by the Stunt committees to their classes. After the Stunt com¬ mittees cast their Stunts, the classes began to work on props, costumes, and backdrops. Each class had a lim¬ it of $125 to spend and less than three weeks to get ready for Stunt Night. Excitement, disappointment, laughter, and tears combined to form the togetherness that is Stunt. These emotions were at the forefront as the scholarships were awarded and the Stunt and Spirit Cups were presented. Stunt Cup Three to five judges are chosen each year by the CRC Stunt Com¬ mission Chairperson to judge Stunt. They are chosen for their knowledge in the area of music, theatre, or art. Each judge is given a score sheet and judges each stunt on the basis of uni¬ ty and continuity of script, original¬ ity, music, choreography, backdrop, properties, costumes, and make-up. After each judge completes their score sheets, their raw scores are tal¬ lied by a neutral scorekeeper. The judges are not allowed to confer dur¬ ing or after the stunts until their scores are tallied and a decision reached. Spirit Cup The Spirit Cup is given each year to the class that best exemplifies the true sisterhood of Wesleyan, cooper¬ ation among themselves and with the other classes, and the true spirit es¬ sential to Stunt. The Spirit Cup Committee is comprised of the Ex¬ ecutive Stunt Chairperson, Stunt Stage Manager, Stunt Commission Chairperson, and two membe rs cho¬ sen from each of the four classes. The CRC President acts as an ex officio member of the committee. These twelve people attend rehears¬ als of each of the classes to observe the way the class cooperates as a whole and with the other classes. Stunt Scholarships The main purpose of Stunt, other than having fun, is to provide money for scholarships for rising seniors. The recipients of these scholarships for 1984 were: Rhonda Barcus, Marianne Brotschul, Jay Gordon, Holly Heath, Ellen Hogle, Susan Hullender, Sara King, Anna Lewis, Charlotte NeSmith, and Libbie Powell. Stunt is always very successful and 1984 was no exception. Parents, family, friends, and faculty enjoyed the original presentations. Although it was very hard work for the stu¬ dents to bring Stunt to its final form, perhaps they enjoyed it most of all. Clockwise from left: I.

Next came Alumnae Weekend with several hundred Wesleyannes returning to attend class reunions, recognition services, and especially, the Candlelighting service.

The long awaited Senior Skit Night finally came in April. Senior Skit Night is a series of skits and other entertainment presented to the students by the senior class. The skits represent Wesleyan life and give the students’ views of their professors and administration. The skits are al¬ ways presented with affection for the faculty. Seniors Connie Evans and Deana Haskell presented a special and unique musical interview with a typical Wesleyanne to the delight and amusement of all.

As Wes- leyannes completed their exami¬ nations and left for home, the campus emptied save for the soon-to-be graduates and their hooders. Not for long, however, as graduation practice signalled relatives, family, and friends to flood the campus for the gradu¬ ation ceremony. Saturday, May 5, 1984 dawned bright and clear and the fifty- eight degree candidates and their hooders were left anxiously await¬ ing in the Rec Room. These last few moments as students for the seniors were bittersweet with tears, laughter, and one last burst of class spirit as the sister song was sung for the final time. At last, the moment was at hand and Junior Marshalls cor¬ ralled the group into two lines for the processional march into Por¬ ter Family Memorial Auditorium. When they emerged from the building, the 1984 Green Knight Class would be alumnae. 134 Wesleyan Life Final examinations . . . Commencement Exercises . . bonders . . .

Concentrating heavily on one or two subjects for a month, students during May term keep, a busy schedule. Although the campus is notoriously quiet during May, sev¬ eral events were planned. For one week, boarding May term students shared their dorm with senior citi¬ zens from across the country who were participating in an Elder Hostel at Wesleyan. The participants at¬ tended classes, seminars, and other events at Wesleyan and in the Ma¬ con area. Also during the month. students were treated to a picnic by the Office of Student Services. The picnic gave the students a chance to get acquainted and to break away from the books. As May Term students took their final examinations and left for home, Wesleyan closed out its one hundred and forty-eighth academic year. It had been a year of challenges and triumphs, of joys and of sorrows, and, most importantly, one in which we had all benefited from learning . . How to Wesleyan. The Social Sciences •a Let’s Get Organized Getting involved is a very impor¬ tant part of being a Wesleyanne. The many boards and activities offered give everyone the opportunity to try their skills in various areas. Partici¬ pation in social activities, sports, stu¬ dent government associations, and Christian fellowship groups help us to round out our personalities and to enjoy ourselves in the process. Here at Wesleyan we can become involved to whatever degree we wish. Depending upon your schedule, you can arrange to have meetings week¬ ly, bi-weekly, or every single night of the week — if that is what you want! Joining any of Wesleyan’s organiza¬ tions ensures you that your time will be well spent. So do yourself a favor Get involved! 140 Organizations ) I ) | I t Executive Council (above): Libbie Powell.

Resident Assistants And Fire Marshall Resident Assistants are selected as rising seniors by the Office of Stu¬ dent Services to serve during their senior years as assistants to the Dean of Student Services. RAs reside in their assigned dormitories serving to assist dorm residents in various mat¬ ters, to aid in appropriate dorm man¬ agement, to act as counselor to dorm residents, and to fulfill a myriad of other responsibilities necessary for the smooth running of the dorm. Ba¬ sically, an RAs duties include acting as a mother to her dorm residents, which means she must be equipped to handle emergencies, to settle dis¬ putes, and to act as liason between dorm residents and administration. In order to fulfill all of her duties responsibly, an RA must possess boundless amounts of patience, un¬ derstanding, sympathy, and concern. The Fire Marshall coordinates and implements fire drills and other legal safety requirements on the Wesleyan campus. The Fire Mar¬ shall is elected by the SGA Senate and is under the supervision of the Office of Student Services. Accord¬ ing to fire safety regulations, the Fire Marshall stages approximately eight fire drills per year for each dormi¬ tory. Peer Counselors Peer Counselors are a select group of rising sophomores, juniors, and seniors chosen each spring on the ba¬ sis of their qualities of responsibility, patience, and empathy. Peer Coun¬ selors undergo extensive training during the spring and summer in or¬ der to help new students adjust to college life. When the new students arrive in the fall, the Peer Counsel¬ ors are on hand to answer questions, give advice, and lend a sympathetic ear. Through Peer Group sessions, Freshman Seminars, and other ac¬ tivities, Peer Counselors fulfill the important function of integrating new students into the Wesleyan com¬ munity.

The club’s activities for the year culmi¬ nated in an excellent Student Art Show sponsored and organized by the club. B.S.A. The Black Student Alliance has as its objectives the fostering of the ideals of Black awareness, scholar¬ ship, sisterhood, and community ser¬ vice. In addition, the Black Student Alliance also has a goal to increase the visibility of the organization on the Wesleyan campus through the sponsorship of activities. Among these activities were events during Black History Month and several fund-raisers. Through the carrying out of these club activities, the orga¬ nization also achieved the goal of sis¬ terhood among members.

The Student Georgia Association of Educators functions as the student branch of the Georgia Association of Educators. This state organization, in turn, falls under the National Education Association, a nation¬ wide lobbying organization for teachers. Although Wesleyan seniors majoring in education are required to join SGAE for liability insurance while student teaching, the organiza¬ tion fulfills vital functions for anyone interested in the field of education. SGAE annually gives a send-off par¬ ty for the student teachers, furnish¬ ing them with survival kits including a box of gold stars, the infamous red marking pencil, and other teaching aids.

The club ope ned the year with a picnic and organizational meeting at Anderson Cabin where plans were made for the 1983-84 school year. In February, the Histor¬ y Government Club sponsored Citi¬ zenship Awareness Week in order to promote involvement in and aware¬ ness of political responsibilities and voting privileges. The week’s events included a speech by Congressman J. Roy Rowland, a symposium on the American arms policy, a mock presi¬ dential preference poll, and a survey of students on the important issues of the day.

The magazine also sponsors Scribes, an honorary liter¬ ary organization. The publication annually designates promising artists who have contributed to the maga¬ zine as new Scribes and publishes the works of every contributing member of the honor organization.

I The Veterropt Attempting to capture the events, activities, people and the milieu of an entire year is a detailed, demand¬ ing, endless, and sometimes thank¬ less task. The work of the yearbook staff, like that of the proverbial homemaker, is never done. There are always pictures to take, copy to write, layouts to draw, and errands to run. Despite its demands on patience, time, and sanity, however, the year¬ book is a rewarding experience for its staff. The completion of a dead¬ line or an entire book is an unparal¬ leled moment — one which makes all the frustration seem worthwhile. The 1984 Veterropt staff, al¬ though at first beset with problems of effective leadership, soon found a capable pilot in Editor Connie Evans who assumed her position Spring Se¬ mester. This late start meant only one thing and a flurry of activity fol¬ lowed. At last, however, the 1984 Veterropt was complete and a staff once inexperienced and ignorant presented to the Wesleyan communi¬ ty a yearbook of which they could be proud.

Work on the program begins early in the year with team try-outs, choreography of numbers, and selection of a theme. After months of weekly practices, the Na¬ iads perform with the intentions of entertainment and inspiring appre¬ ciation for water ballet as an art form. The 1984 Naiad performance was “T.V.

Basketball FOUR B.W.O.C.i B.W.O.C.s : rj K i Big Women On Campus Although most of us have noticed a definite tendency to grow during our college career, moving up three clothes sizes does not guarantee one a spot in the B.W.O.C.s section. Rather, the distinction of B.W.O.C. is given to those who have through scholarship and leadership been found worthy of this distinction — regardless of ability to achieve hori¬ zontal physical growth. Whether by election to an award, selection into an honor society, or by well-earned recognition of accom¬ plishments, those selected as B.W.O.C.s have brought both honor and achievement to the Wesleyan community. There academic excel¬ lence, accomplishments, and leader¬ ship skills are an asset to the College as a whole. For this reason, the Ve- terropt salutes these Big Women on Campus. 172 Honors ' i Mortar Board Mortar Board is a national honor so¬ ciety founded for the advancement of women and is now a national co-ed or¬ ganization.

This year’s gift was a stereo and Jane Fonda workout tape for the new weight and exercise room in Por ter. 180 Honors Senior Witches Every year on or around Halloween a strange happening occurs at the lake behind Jones. A motley crew of senior Witches rise from the mist. Armed with water guns and masks to hide their identity, these witches proceed to reek friendly havoc on the Campus. Through the mist of squirt gun-water, these witches dismissed classes and kazooed their way through the day and into the night until their final de-masking at the Halloween banquet.

The 83-84 Green Knight members of Who’s Who were among the finest Wesleyan had to offer and deserved the recognition of this national honor society.

Carol served as the President of the Council on Religious Con¬ cerns for 1983-84, an organization in which she had long been active.

Jeanon Davis Moore Jeanon was known to most Wesleyanncs as the Secretary of the Office of Student Services. Un¬ beknownst to most, however, Jeanon was quietly working on a B.B.A. degree in Management at the same time. Jeanon resigned her position at Wesleyan to become a full-time student in Janu¬ ary, 1983. Despite the demands of juggling home- life, studies, and active community involvement, Jeanon still managed to be active in many campus activities and to graduate with honors.

SRC President during her senior year, Loretta involved herself in the organization ' s many activities with zest. She won an SRC Three Year Award as well as being named to the SRC Honor Roll for her membership on the board for four consecutive years. However, Loretta did not limit herself to athletics; she excelled academically as well. A Wesleyan Scholar, she was an English major and twice won the English Departmental Honor Award. A magna cum laude graduate, Loretta was awarded a full academic scholarship to the Walter F. George School of Law at Mercer University where Loretta planned to continue her studies. 183 Wesleyan Woman Of The Year Page Clements The award for Wesleyan Woman of the Year is sponsored by the Vetcrropt and elected by the student body. This honor is presented to the senior felt to be the epitome of a true Wesley¬ an woman. The 1984 Wesleyan Woman of the Year Award was presented to Page Clements by the student body. Page’s dedication and hard work on behalf of her class and fellow students helped her to earn this prestigious honor. The friend¬ liness and Green Knight spirit Page exhibited characterized the true spirit of Wesleyan. The Senior Honor Award is sponsored by the Times an Challenge Selected by the faculty, the recipient of this award is the member of the senior class which they felt to be outstanding in the Wesleyan community. The 1984 Senior Honor Award was presented to Mary Ann Cunningham.

The four years have yielded times which have been both special and vital to our maturity and identity. As we flip the pages of our college memories, we begin to understand the true value of college life extends far beyond the degree for which we have worked. We begin to question the values which led us along the path to Wes¬ leyan in the first place. Have we ac¬ complished our goals? Have we sought and gained knowledge, friendship, maturity? Our reflection brings satisfaction because we know that these are the things which Wes¬ leyan has promised and which we have achieved. 188 V Clockwise from left: I.

I Autographs Autographs Wesleyan Events You Never Heard About Every year, many happenings on campus either go unnoticed or are purposefully kept secret for a variety of reasons. News of several of these types of events rarely even travel the collegiate grapevine. However, scoops and professional journalists that we are, the Vetcrropt staff felt you ought to know. Dr. Kay Reveals Major Epidemic on Campus — Dr. Frederick Kay, campus physician, recently admitted to the presence of a pernicious virus on the Wesleyan campus during Spring Semester, 1984. Kept hush- hush to avoid a panic, the epidemic hit the senior class particuarly hard. Dr. Kay was quick to note that sen¬ iors were not the only ones effected by the virus. Many whom seemed to have particuarly adamant resistence were befallen. Tagged senioritis sec¬ ond semesterus t the disease cursed its victims with dangerous symp¬ toms. Lack of interest in schoolwork, an inability to concentrate, and an heightened aptitude in seemingly in¬ fantile pleasures were noted as the most prominent symptoms. Other side effects included almost mania¬ cal desires for night life and, as the name indicates, inflammation of the said senior. Also observed were de¬ cidedly stubborn delusions of gran¬ deur. Dr. Kay happily added that the epidemic subsided as graduation and commencement neared. Persons RA ' s Secretly Trainees • I M for Law Enforcement Positions — Reliable sources recently reported that 1984 Persons Dormitory Resi¬ de nt Assistants were actually under¬ cover trainees for law enforcement positions. Receiving life experience credit for their work on the Wesley¬ an campus, the secret trainees felt their assignment an excellent inde¬ pendent study experience and in¬ valuable for their chosen careers. One trainee even stated that her as¬ signment at Wesleyan had aided her in choosing her particular area of law enforcement. “The Vice Squad is definitely for me,” she told a re¬ porter. SAGA Revealed as Undercover Chemical Warfare Practioncrs — Inside informants recently leaked in¬ formation to the Veterropt about an infiltration of the Saga Food Ser¬ vices ranks last year. Undercover Soviet spies used the Wesleyan kitchen as a practice area for several types of chemical poisons. Although the fiends were protected by diplo- mactic immunity, SAGA was able to punish the spies by terminating their paychecks. Before deportation, one of the spies revealed that their tests had been of a more subtle nature than the usual chemical warfare. Luckily, no Wesleyannes were per¬ manently disabled by the food, al¬ though several cases of gastritis and acne were reported. Autographs ■ 196 Learning Alternatives It has long been known that a great deal of learning takes place outside the classroom and that sometimes this non- academic learning is more beneficial to students than the traditional classroom study. Now it is even possible for stu¬ dents to receive academic credit for life experiences. Until now, most of this credit has been going to students re¬ turning after long breaks in their study. However it is about time that tradition¬ al students take advantage of this re¬ warding and fun type of learning. Rich sources of information abound in the typical college community. Below are some ideas for excellent starting points. 1. Television. Forget PBS. The most valuable information can be gleaned Irom prime-time tv. Some examples are listed below. Magnum, PI. — Environmental par¬ ticulars and topical geography of the unique Hawaiian Islands and of trans¬ planted mainlandcrs arc featured. A must for the biology major. Dallas. Dynasty, Falcon ' s Crest, Knot’s Landing — Important documentaries concerning the psychological and social effects of money and wealth, extramari¬ tal relations, and jealousy on the inhabi¬ tants of some of our nation’s most inter¬ esting locales. A rich source of informa¬ tion for the psycholgy, sociology, and business majors. General Hospital, Days of Our Lives Another World. All My Children, etc Same as above for the collegiate with a busy night-time schedule. Benson — An insider’s look at state government with an emphasis on the executive branch and bureaucratic give-and take. Almost an internship for the political science major. Welcome Back , Kotter — Although taken off the air several years ago, this informative program is available as a syndicated re-run. The education major is provided with invaluable practicum in dealing with those special students. 2. Sleep. An excellent opportunity for the psychology major to reap informa¬ tion on the restorative power of sleep, the tension-reducing effect of dreams, and to begin elementary psychoanaly¬ sis. 3. Shopping. While enhancing consum¬ er awareness, shopping is a wonderful opportunity to observe the do’s and don ts of salesmanship, inventory, cus¬ tomer relations, and the latest business dress. The busines major would be lost without this one. 4. Night-time Activities. The Public Relations major can freely partake of her after-college career at one of the many night-time establishments where, as in her chosen profession, first im¬ pressions count most. These type of ac¬ tivities are excellent practicum for those who realize the importance of so¬ cial contacts — salespersons, advertis¬ ing and business executives, and public relations practioners. A ' , Autographs 1 I I I - Truly Important Factors To Consider While Registering While pre-registering and register¬ ing, many unhappy students have had the shortsightedness to merely consider what classes were needed for their ma¬ jors, consult the appropriate advisors, and work out a schedule — without ever realizing their foolhardiness! While these simple steps are the only ones listed as procedure, registration is actually a complex process which has a drastically underrated effect on future happiness and life in general. W ' hile the process is touted as merely a bureau¬ cratic preliminary to classes, BE¬ WARE! In actuality, registration and the con¬ sequences which thence follow will in¬ fluence your entire schedule for the fol¬ lowing semester. I mean. Can we talk? We are all aware that academics play only a small role in collegiate life; some¬ times even an insignificant one. Many successful collcgiates have had a full and active campus life without a mo¬ ment ' s thought or anguish about classes — merely by taking registration seri¬ ously. For your benefit, listed below are some of the truly important questions to ask yourself before registration. Many of the problems which may arise can be resolved by only a little creative resche¬ duling. Several examples are given. interfere with General Hospital? Mum¬ ble and take English as a Foreign Lan¬ guage instead. 2. Social Activities. Accounting 102 only available at night and it’s needed for your major? Scratch it and change your major to Public Relations. Don t fool yourself; effective social skills and opportunities for social interaction are much more important than knowledge in the business world. 3. Shuteye. As collcgiates have been found to need a disproportionately greater amount of sleep as compared to other age groups, scheduling classes around your sleep pattern is a crucial matter. If you fall into this group, try classes in the later a.m. hours or even afternoon time slots. Strange things have been known to befall co-eds who ignore this problem, so take your beau¬ ty rest seriously! An education is not worth serious psychological and phys¬ ical side-effects. A six-year plan may be for you. 4. P.T.H. (Peak Tanning Hours). Scheduling classes around these impor- tat daily events is a must. Although the issue only arises during the warmer months, it is important that this daily ritual be observed. Failure to take this matter into account coud result in your professors linking your class attendance to the weather report.

At this point, we can look and see many things we could have done differently. But also, finally completing a project of this size gives us a sense of acomplishment and pride in our hard work. It will be some lime before the many long hours and all-nighters we gave to this ycartmok seem worthwhile. However the finished product makes us realize that perhaps we succeeded in reaching our goal — portraying Wesleyan as the all-encompassing symbol of the many unique learning experiences we have here We wanted to produce a yearbook which would use as its theme the value and uniqueness of Wesleyan life In our attempt to capture the essence of Wow To Weslenn, we became more fully aware of the many unique things we identify with our college and collectively call esleyan She is both a challenge and a haven, she is friendship and she is sisterhood, and she is the second home from which we emerge young women via the learning experiences we encountered here. After four years, we leave Wesleyan much more independent, knowledgeable, and self-assured women than when we entered.
