Dr. Herbert Coston of the history department and his wife Phyllis, director of the learning center, spent their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary m China Dr. Coston's AIDP study was orig- inally set for Africa, two years ago, but the trip had to be postponed. Collecting materials for the class he teaches in Asian History. Dr, Coston studied the developing areas of Canton, Peking, Sang-Hui and Hang Chou, Phyllis Coston, meanwhile concentrated on the theme of comparative education. Dr, Ernest Capstack, one of Wesley- an's most respected chemistry profes- sors, spent his sabbatical leave in the far east, Dr, Capstack traveled to India and Pakistan by airplane but while in Sri Lenka he could be seen traveling by ele- phant. The most publicized trip was made by Dr, Ju Kuei Sun, associate professor of physics and Dr, Joseph B, Mow, profes- sor of philosophy, who also traveled to China, Dr, Mow used a daily kept journal and photographs to present his trip, in report form, to those living in the Buck- hannon area Dr, Mow's report appeared in a January edition of The West Virginia Hillbilly. Drs, Sun and Mow visited not only Peking but also Manchuria and Can- ton, both are found on Mainland China.

Having traveled to Romania in 1 973 and Poland in 1 974. we auditioned and gladly accepted an invitation from Friendship Ambassadors to perform in Jazz Celebration II in Sibiu, Romania, Thus Romania-Mania became a fact of life on the Wesle yan Campus, Fund raising began almost immediately We pooled our resources, with many students contnbuting the entire amount while others offered as much toward the individual total as their families could afford Using the services of the Wesleyan Computer Center, we traced addresses of Wesleyan band alumni and wrote each of them The band alums were able to send the equivalent of three passages to Romania, Finally, as we came near to our goal, Wesleyan's president, Fred Harris gave the band a green light and Romania-Mania was launched officially. Several problems were encountered almost immediately. Our students had to arrange to lake their final exams about a week early, and seven had to miss their own commencement ceremony. Fortunately, faculty and administration cooperation was outstanding and all went well for our May 1 4 departure. Still, another problem had to be solved, Buckhannon. West Virginia, is nearly 500 miles from New York, making a one day trip to the airport nearly impossible. To solve the problem, we arranged an overnight concert engagement on May 13, the night before departure, in Woodbury, New Jer- sey, the home of one of our trombonists, B, J, Brazier, The students were housed in Woodbury homes on Sunday night, played an early Monday morning assembly program and left immediately for the airport. On Tuesday. May 15th, early morning, we landed in Bucharest and met our guide, Mihaela Fislioc. Our next three weeks were to represent the most profound impression in the lives of our student players. We established last- ing friendships, meaningful relationships, and heard many excellent Roma- nian musicians Our hosts, BTT did an outstanding job in arranging our per- lormances and tours. On our first full day m Bucharest, we exchanged per- formances at the George Enescu High School for Mucic, where we heard soloists of fantastic musicianship. In nearly every city; Brasov, Alba lulia, Tirgu Mures, we met Romanian Id .' players and in many cases, shared the stage in concert. In every per- formance, our ensemble was greeted by a packed house, rhythmic applause, and a presentation of beautiful flowers. The Romanian people are justly proud of a beautiful country. We were dazzled with the grandeur of the snow-capped Carpathian Mountains during our stay in Busteni. the beautiful Black Sea coast at the International Student Hotel at Costinesti and the splendor of dining atop Mount Timpa at the Pano- ramic Restaurant high above the city of Brasov. While in Busteni. the Wes- leyan band and a group of Russian tourists were entertained by an outstand- ing folk dancing group from Ploiesti. the L'Ensemble Folklorique Prahova. One of the highlights of our lour occurred after an extremely gratifying concert in Cluj. We were treated to a slide presentation featuring the West Virginia Wesleyan Jazz Ensemble on lour in Cluj in 1973. Hopefully, we can return in a few years and see slides of the 79 band! Of course, the absolute highlight of our Inp was the festival in Sibiu. Jazz Celebration II. Fortunately, it was scheduled at the end of our tour because everything after would be anti-climactic. Lectures were presented on a vari- ety of subjects including ' Romanian Folk Music in Jazz , the ' 'History of the Development of Romanian Jazz Clubs , and the ' 'History of the Swing Band Era , the latter presented by Fred Kaufman, director of our sister American group, the Eastern Montana State College Jazz Ensemble, from Billings, Montana, We chose as our lecture topic. The Influence of Odd and Changing Metered Music in American Big Band Repertoire . using as examples the works of Don Ellis. Hank Levy, Bob McConnell, Roger Neumann and Bill Holman Jazz Celebration II lasted three days: each of the first two nights saw sev- eral Romanian groups and one of the American groups. Standing room only audiences were the rule of the festival. The third and final night, the Gala featured as a prelude, a film of last year's festival. The concert included most of the groups from the past two days, and as a highlight, a jam featuring several Romanian soloists and groups with the Montana and then, the West Virginia groups. The Gala began at 6:30 PM with the film and was still going strong at 1 1 00 PM! We were treated to rhythmic applause throughout the concert and if chops could hold up. it seemed that we could have kept the full audience all night. II was at the festival that our Wesleyan players understood what I meant icon'lonp 81 .-«ai bf !fc,rf ' :'; Wosleyon o. j the Wr :j lJ L in ■ -% V - «fr'. con'ttromp 26 months earlier when I said that this is one ot our better groups, and I wanted them to experience pertorming in Romania, the most appreciative ol the ten countries I have performed in Dick Mayo, the Ambassadors' representative, expressed it best when he said thai the Romanian people are the best audience in the world. In return, we became the greatest fans of the Romanian people. Perhaps we will tour elsewhere in the near future, but I know we will return to Romania. David Milburn Assoc.

The audience applauded through whole songs, and we were swarmed by eager Romanian students who wanted to see or to play our horns, exchange addresses, or simply talk with us. I brag of having visited a fortress which was defended by the one and only Vlad Tepes during 14th century conflicts. Friends from my native state of New Jersey are amused when I elaborate on the effects ot the stout and sturdy Romanian here A favorite story is the one about the Romanian restaurant owner who attempted to rub some coarse- grained chewing tobacco with me on the shore of the Black Sea. Unfortunately, it took some time and some frantic hand signals before the man understood that the sweet juices should be expelled and not swallowed (con'lonp 30) Wesleyan and the Workt Zd can't Irom p 29 People from the mountain state of West Virginia always seem amazed when they find out Romania is a country with not only a sea coast, but flat farmlands and snow-capped mountains as well But my favorite experience from Romania is one that I rarely talk about. It started the night we performed in the tseautiful city of Brasov. After an after- noon concert we were guests at a Festive dinner held at a ski resort. Dur- ing the course of dinner I met a man who gave jazz lectures and vrfio played some piano and guitar in Romanian clubs. With the help of our tour guide (and some pine-tree brandy) the man and I engaged in a healthy conversa- tion about some American jazz styles and our own preferences in jazz, I never did pick up his full name. For the time, I knew him only as Alexander. Two nights later we were in Sibiu, the last tiand on the opening night of concerts at Jazz Celebration II. Our band was playing well, and the enthusi- asm of the audience helped create that feeling of electricity which makes performing so enjoyable. Our last song was Don Ellis' The Great Divide, a real cooker and a real showpiece. After some good solos and two or three ripping solo sections the piece ended with each laand member ad libbing on the melody line. The musicians then wandered off the stage and into the audience, still playing and filling the air with notes of every pilch and color. As I weaved through an aisle honking on my tenor sax. I spotted Alexander, smiling broadly and gesturing to ine to go over near him and play. It was great to recognize someone in a crowd of unknown laces, and I gladly obliged I stood tiehind him and continued playing. While I played, he reached out and held my right arm. His eyes were beaming, and he bel- lowed out in very understandable English, Play it! Play it! I responded, playing as hard as I could from my toes on up. When our director brought the cacophony to a close, I could do nothing but smile at my new friend. In those few seconds, the language of music transcended the limitations of nationality. This thing called jazz became a bridge tor joy and spirit, unhin- dered by the limits of spoken language. Alexander embraced me heartily, his jewel-like eyes shining with happiness. Overwhelmed by applause and wild cheering, I shuffled my way back upstage feeling giddy, but happy and satis- fied. Perhaps the reason why this memory is a private one is because of my involvement as a musician But it doesn't take a musician to realize how per- fect a medium music is And I hope that it is easy to see that friendship and joy are its premier messages George Evano Buckhannon, W79 30 Vv'eile an ond the World Wesleyort and fhs Wcila RADITIONS 33 In Honor of Our .

Tradrlions ' 35 Queen Meg Reigns Over Festivities Flappers, The Cat's Meow! — The campus of West Vir- ginia Wesleyan College looked like a scene from The Sting on the weekend of October 20, 1978 This was the setting for Homecoming 1978, as alumni, students, trustees, and friends gathered for three days of e vents. Backed by the theme The Twenties and All That JazzI , Homecoming weekend began with the Homecoming Queen Coronation Fhday night in Wesley Chapel, Forming the proces- sion-way were the members of the Freshman Honor Court: Betty Bailey, Dawn Duron, Becky Fast, Wendy Fefolt, Pam Foleska, Karen Jones, Dawn Koch, Donna Myers, Julie Olson, Jeanine Rose, Kelly Rowan, Mary Jane Rulong, Ann Walker, and Anne Zachur. Meg Risinger, a senior music major from St. Albans, West Virginia, was crowned as queen. She reigned over Freshman Attendant, Jane Summers; Sophomore Attendant, Megan Bowen; Junior Attendant Sue McConaughey; and Sen- iors Sandy Clawson, Sharon DeLitzia, Bonnie Gashlin, Ellen Royalty, and Susan Spears. Concluding Friday's events was a concert by Michael John- son and Burton Cummings. In an interview following the con- cert. Burton commented that he was very pleased with the crowd. He did not mind what size audience there was because he could feel the energy pressing hght up onto the stage. Homecoming Queen 1978 Meg Risinger and her escort Jay Parker. 36 .'

Theta Chi placed first in front of Phi Sigma Epsilon. Aboard the Phi Sig float, Jesse Koon and Jennifer Grouse demon- strate the art of dipping while the other sec- ond place float, Zeta Tau Alpha, stnkes up the band for flappers to flap by. Also taking first place honors was the entry made by Alpha Gamma Delta, who wisely advised Glenville to make a quick getaway. Following a picnic luncheon on the lawn of Jenkins Hall, the Orange and Black rallied to record a conference victory over the Glenville Pioneers with a score of 28-21 . Halftime included the presentation of the Homecoming Court and entertainment by the Wesleyan Band. Homecoming Weekend concluded on Sunday morning in Wesley Chapel as the congregation listened to Lt. Col. Theodore J. Wilson, a 1958 Wesleyan graduate. Traditions 39 IS THEXl ' R -v.— I ■ — inw „0tm0 df '. ■ ■ i •• ,• i-r..'

Meeting together at this season of the year to decorate our halls with greenery, we link ourselves with a custom that spans many centuries. Hanging the green is an ancient English custom, boughs of green stood as a symbol of hope and peaqe. When the Christian gospel reached the shores of Great Britain, some of the early rituals were blended with the resplendent celebration of the coming of the Prince of Peace. The custom of decorating the walls with greenery continued to take on new meaning under Christian influence, as a part of the Christmas celebration. Thus, the practice of hanging mistletoe, holly, and ivy over doorways and upon walls has been handed down from pagan times and has become, through the centuries, an inte- gral part of our Christmas observance We hang the green at Wesleyan from year to year to signify the official opening of the Christmas season on campus. Let us hang the green: LAUREL . . . The ancient Romans used the laurel as an emblem of peace, joy, and victory. MISTLETOE . . . The sacred possessor of magical powers. IVY ... An ever-growing, ever-clinging vine, a symbol of our immediate constancy and future concern. HOLLY . . . The holly leaves represent the crown of thorns worn by Jesus on the cross The red berries symbolize the drops of blood, merry Christmas! Traditions 43 44 Tfodttons Troditions 45 Black Awareness Week: Julian Bond This year marked the fifth anni- versary of the newest Wesleyan tra- dition. Each year in the spring the Black Students' Coalition sponsors Black Awareness Week. During this week a number of activities were planned for the entire campus com- munity. This year these events included a presentation of the movie Sounder, sickle cell anemia tests administered by Barnhart Memorial Health Center, and a cof- feehouse featuring members of the Black Students' Coalition. Possibly the highlight of Black Awareness Week was the appear- ance of Senator Julian Bond of Georgia. Senator Bond's lecture, America What Next'' was deliv- ered Saturday preceding a recep- tion in the Chambers Lounge of Martin Religious Center. Also addressing the campus community was Ida S. Baker. Mrs. Baker partic- ipated in a panel discussion involv- ing various members of the Wes- leyan staff and guests of the col- lege. 46 TrodTttoni John Wesley Chapel West Virginia Wesleyan College Buckhannon, West Virginia Traditions 47 Spring Sing 79 The 1979 academic year proved to be one of nostalgia. as both Homecoming and Spnng Weekend generated fond memories of past years. Spring was greeted at Wes- leyan by old fashioned love songs. As traditionally done, the weekend was begun by the coronation of the Spring i Queen. This year that honor was given to senior Carolyn Martin, an art major from Charleston. Carolyn's court con- sisted of Freshman Attendant Karyn Flowers. Seniors Barb Salter, Jenny Grouse, Barb Myers and Sue Spears. Sophomore Attendant Becky Burgess, and Junior Attend- ant Sarah Mangus. After being crowned, Queen Carolyn sat in her throne smiling to everyone who appeared to ser- enade her. 48 Traditions ( ( )( Just an Old Fashion Love Song A queen, a mistress of ceremonies, the Concert Chorale, thir- teen competing groups and two groups singing just for fun was the cast of Spring Sing 79. Lu Ann Goldizen resided as mis- tress of ceremonies as the Spring Court and audience were entertained by a large variety of love songs, sung by thirteen diverse groups. In the men's division. Albatross, under the direction of Jeff Haught, placed first, in front of Phi Sigma Epsi- lon and Theta Xt. The women's division also saw an independ- ent group as the first place singers.

This year the Baccalaureate sermon was delivered by Rev. Charles E. Echols Rev. Echols delivered his sermon, Some- thing Like A Star to members of the graduating class and their families Three members of that class received senior awards To Bob Wilkins. Marvin H, Carr III presented the Francis Asbury Award, Rachel Swanson was awarded the Sheridan Watson Religious Life Influence Award, Finally. Meg Risinger received the William B, Hatfield Arts Award, TradrHons 53 Pinning For some, graduation is anti-climactic, anti-cli- mactic because their real achievement is honored the day before commencement services. How come. of course you mean why does this seem to happen'' The answer: we are speaking of sen- ior nursing majors and possibly one of the most respected accomplishments on Wesleyan's cam- pus .the completion of the four year nursing program. Compared to graduation, in many ways, the pinning ceremony is a more sentimental one, as IS the sophomore ceremony of Capping. The pinning ceremony comes across almost as a fam- ily affair, with members of the nursing family tak- ing part. For instance, how many tears built up as Dons Godsey, a nursing instructor, pinned her daughter Sue? or as Barb Myers sang The Way We Were and how many fond memories were brought back by Cathy Stifter's Reflections ' . . . drug cards, care plans, blue uniforms and 5 am. mornings, all fitting the scheme of require- ments that provide the means to this end 54 Traditions Bccefttennial Y BUC Anticipation As the last comprehiensive final was being com- pleted and as the last paper was being turned in the Wesleyan community prepared for perhaps its most important tradition . . . Commencement Everywhere signs of congratulations and prepara- tion could be seen. And everybody celebrated. Starting with the members of the senior class itself. One of the big- gest of these celebrations was that of the Senior Party, given and organized by several members of the class, including Disco Gus Godsey. who kept parts of the Bicentennial and the senior class grooving to the beat of accomplishment But the graduates were not the only ones seen celebrat- ing. When Saturday arrived, it was the parents' turn, celebrating their sons' and daughters' com- pletion by attending the Senior Parent Banquet Not to be left out, Wesleyan's future graduates also celebrated by spending those last good times with the brothers, the sisters, their friends Of course, anticipation also includes planning. In this case planning seemed to revolve around where to go next, what to do, and how to get four years of memories packed in the car. Traditions ' 55 Amid all the smiles and tears, all the hugs and cheers, picture taking and gown removal there seemed to be a cloaked person roaming around. This, of course, was the famed undercover yearbook reporter With ears perked and a tape recorder running the following was overheard as answers to the question — What are you planning to do after Graduation?

The Bobcats were behind other schools who had the program for several seasons. In 1 979, however, Wesleyan is behind very few schools and is coming closer to becoming the number one team in the state. The Cats under Caroline Horner posted a 16-5 record this winter against the toughest schedule in the school's history They again finished second to Morris Harvey in the WVIAA and placed fourth in the season-ending tournament after being upset by Davis and Elkins and West Liberty The Orange and Black had sevgral great victories during the 1978-79 campaign, but perhaps the highlight of the season came in a 104-101 overtime victory over Marshall University in Huntington. Sophomore forward Betty Cook and senior center Janice Evans combined to lead the Bobcats to their greatest in women's basketball short history. Other tough victories came over Davis and Elkins, Alderson-Broaddus, Salem, Fairmont State, Frostburg State, Marietta, West Virginia Tech, West Liberty, Wheeling, West Virginia State, Concord, and Glenville State. There were disappointing losses including heartbreaking defeats from Virginia Tech and West Virginia University The Bob- cats had chances to win both games, but fell short at the buzzer Wesleyan will miss Janice Evans badly next year as she graduates after having two outstanding seasons. However, the rest of ' the squad will return which should mean that the Cats will continue their battle for the number one spot in the state.

After eight years. Fairmont States domination of the West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Conference in basketball has ended During the past four years West Virginia Wesleyan has been coming back in basketball Memories of the institution's domination of the sport in the late 50's and early 60 s were returning Still, the Bobcats had not reached the top In 1 979 the drought and frustra- tion ended As singer Al Stewart sings in his award winning hit, It Was the Year of the Cat The Bobcats have returned and returned in a very big way After struggling during the early part of the season, the Cats caught fire, winning the conference title and going to Kansas City for the NAIA Tournament, the first time since 1 960 The keys to the success were rather simple. The Bobcats had talent, a lot of class, and togetherness Their goals were simple . . . win the conference and go to Kansas City It was not as easy as it sounds Disaster struck the team in the second game of the season when sophomore guard tVlike Williams broke his foot. The squad did not have an abundance of depth, and everyone in Buckhannon felt that the Cats had to stay healthy to win Everyone in the Upshur County community also knew that John Bates. Mark Davis, and Jim Brogan were great basketball players But could they do it alone'' That answer came quickly when Fairmont State made its first trip to Buckhannon The Fal- cons were ranked fifth in the nation and were heavy favorites to win the conference again The contest was a hard fought one and Bates, Davis, and Brogan were having their usual outstanding games However, Fair- mont's premier center Harvey Austin found an unpleasant surprise Wesleyan's 6-8 center Tim Dixon was a lot better and much more aggressive which made Fairmont's explosive inside offense become somewhat ineffective While this was happening, point guard Rich Cameron, a spot player last season, took control of the offense and before anyone realized it, the Bobcats waltzed by Fairmont 81-68 Cameron had scored 14 points during the last five minutes, and a lot of people's questions about the Cats were answered Of course, as usual the Bobcats lost their next two conference games, which put them behind Fairmont again However, instead of folding, the squad pulled together winning 12 straight conference games to go back on top the WVIAC standings. With Bates and Davis scoring 20 points per game apiece inside and Brogan blitzing the nets from the outside, the Wesleyan offensive machine became almost impossible to stop Cameron continued his brilliant play and Dixon steadily contributed 10 points each night Hess also found another piece of gold in Mike Cardamone. a pesky 5-1 0 guard, who led the team in steals All of this had many conference coaches calling the Bobcats the best offensive team to play in the conference in 1 5 years There were tough games in the 1 2-game winning streak, but the contest that put the Cats in first place for good came in the Fairmont State Feaster Center Thirty-five hundred fans were ready for another classic showdown, but what they saw was a new champion methodically defeat the old one Cameron again killed the Falcons down the stretch, while the rest of the squad con- tinued Its fine play Hess' squad continued winning after the Fairmont encounter with the lone exception, a one point loss to Alderson-Broaddus Finally, on February 19, the Cats clinched the title downing Wheeling 78-62 in the northern panhandle Goal number one had been reached For the past two years, the Bobcats had won the WVIAC Tournament Championship and most observers felt they would win it again After an easy 93-71 victory over Salem, the Bobcats faced old nemesis Morris Harvey For the past two seasons, the Cats had eliminated the Golden Eagles from the tourney and ended their season In 1 979, however, the tables would turn, and Morris Harvey would return the favor to Wesleyan It was another classic semi-final game, with neither team leading by more than tour points Morris Harvey wanted this game very badly They were figured to be a championship contender but saw several injuries reduce them to mediocrity With all players back in the line-up they wanted to redeem themselves by winning the tournament. After changing leads all night, the Eagles prevailed 71-70 despite great efforts by Rich Cameron and Mike Williams, who had returned to the squad after his season long injury After defeating Wesleyan. Morris Harvey needed only one more win to advance to the District 28 playoffs against the Cats However, while Morris Harvey was winning, there was another team who was wearing the glass slipper Concord and its 6-4. 245 pound center Will Johnson had come out of nowhere to reach the finals, and before Morris Harvey could regain its compo- sure the Cinderella Mountain Lions waltzed by them for the title. So It was Concord and Wesleyan in the playoffs, and many people wondered if the Orange and Black would comie up short again That question did not take long to answer as the Bobcats crushed the Mountain Lions in two straight to reach their sec- ond goal — goto Kansas City. As usual. Mark Davis was phenomenal in the playoffs hitting every shot in sight. He led all scorers with 20 and 25 points in each game, while John Bates grabbed 30 rebounds in the two games Cameron and Brogan hit from the outside, and Dixon kept Concord's Will Johnson from doing what he does best — score Wesleyan's draw in Kansas City was ninth ranked St John's of Minnesota The Johnnies brought a 26 game winning streak into the tournament and were in Kansas City for the third consecutive season They were favored over the Cats, and many peo- ple felt that it would be an easy game for the District 1 3 champs But as usual. Wesleyan fooled everyone and both teams locked | up one of the greatest opening round games in recent NAIA Tournament history It was an intense battle with neither team able to stay on top 'After battling for 39 minutes and 50 seconds the score was tied at 71-71 Wesleyan had the basketball and set up for the last shot With six seconds remaining Cameron's 1 2 foot jumper went in and out with one second remaining Bate's follow up went in and out Everyone felt that both shots were in. but somehow they were not The struggle carried into overtime and finally with four seconds remaining St John's Pat McKenzie swished a 20 footer to lift the Minnesotians to an 83-81 win Two players who led them back leave the Wesleyan program and will be sorely missed Rich Cameron had a tremendous season giving the squad its first real floor leader in over a decade Mark Davis also closed out his brilliant career He had endured the frustration of almost winning and enjoyed the reality of the dream coming true — being the champion.

Academics The Merrill Palmer Experience Every year eight to twelve students from West Virginia Wesleyan College leave this campus to study at the Merrill-Palmer Insti- tute in Detroit. The students are ma|oring in Youth Services, a pre-professional study program developed at West Virginia Wes- leyan College for students wanting to work with troubled adolescents. The Youth Ser- vices major is an interdisciplinary liberal arts program requiring, in addition to general studies, courses in sociology, psychology, and government During the junior year stu- dents live in Detroit, studying childhood and adolescence in an urban setting through Merrill-Palmer Between 1975 and 1979 approximately 30 Wesleyan students have completed their Merrill-Palmer internship. Upon graduation Youth Services students find careers in group homes, reform schools, child welfare programs, probation offices, juvenile courts, youth divisions of police departments, and other child-serving agencies.

To this end the faculty seeks to develop in students both a thorough understanding of the diverse operational prob- lems involved in a business world of changing dimensions, and insights into their solutions. In an attempt to master the more specialized aspects of business, students are encouraged to explore social and other cultural values. The exacting demands which face the executive require that he possess more than a high degree of professional competence. He must have a broad grasp of general business fundamentals and a full awareness of the economic, social, and human forces which form the background against which his business career in business leadership must be based upon a broad cultural foundation. The courses offered meet the needs of those intending to enter one of the fields of business, pursue graduate study, or teach business sub- jects.

Personal qualifications are evaluated by a committee of the nursing faculty. Facully 239 Chemistry The Chemistry Department provides a back- ground of chemical science to meet the needs of a variety of students pursuing a variety of careers. The introductory and general courses are general studies courses in science suitable for any stu- dent; these and other courses are utilized to pro- vide the chemistry needed for degree programs dependent on chemistry Two degree programs are offered in chemistry.

West Virginia Wesleyan College attempts to equip prospective teachers with a thorough profes- sional education, ample mastery of the subject matter to be taught, a breadth and richness of lib- eral culture, and a Christian view of the dignity and worth of human personality. The program enables students to meet require- ments for elementary and secondary certificates in this and other states, and tor the West Virginia public school certificate (valid in both elementary and secondary levels). The public schools of the area afford opportunities for directed observation and teaching.

Faculty 243 Home Economics The Home Economics Department provides fundamental preparation for ttiose wishing to enter professional careers in home economics or to enter graduate school. Home Economics synthesizes knowledge drawn from its own research, from the physical, bio- logical, and social sciences and the arts, and applies this knowledge to improving the lives of families and indi- viduals- It IS the purpose of this depart- ment to develop competency in utiliz- ing both human and material resources to further the well-being of society. For this reason, all courses in the department are open to all stu- dents, regardless of their major, if pre- requisites are met. This department has well-equipped laboratories and lecture rooms. In addition, there is a Home Management House in which students live for several weeks trying out new theories and putting principles they have learned in the classroom to actual practice. Students planning to teach at the secondary level are eligible for voca- tional certification in home economics. Students can meet the requirements of the American Dietetic Association for the dietetic internships. Wesleyan is the only private college in the state approved to issue the vocational teaching certificate in home econom- ics and the only private coeducational college in the tri-state to offer the dietic program.

The pursuit of a future degree in law is another frequent goal of the undergraduate major The degree in government can lead to possible employ- ment opportunities in government service with local, state, and national agencies; diplomatic service careers, positions with organizations conducting research; positions in organi- zations engaged in planning activities at the local, state, regional, and national levels, careers in journalism and in specialized writing and editing; and, in the area of politics, the holding of elective or appointive office and positions with full-time professional campaign organizations. 1 Dr Volkmar Lauber, government 2 Dr Herbert Coston. chairman, tiis- tory and Dr. Joseph Mow, chairman. philosoptiy 3 Dr Roy Curry, history, and Dr Mow 4 Dr Ben Martin, his- tory. 5 Ian Taplin, sociology 6 Dr John Warner, chairman, sociology Faculty 245 Religion The courses in religion contribute to education in the humanities through their consideration of man in terms of his religious insights, commit- ments and traditions- Such study of religion encompasses scriptural foundations, historical development, theological reflection and social- cultural expression. In keeping with the tradition of the College, Christianity receives particular attention as a basis for understanding the herit- age of the Western world- The major or minor is appropriate for persons preparing for professional theological study or church-related vocations. However, it is recom- mended for any student interested in man and his cultural development.

Dr. John Saun- ders, English 244 Faculty English The Department of English believes that litera- ture should be an integral part of every student's program In its curriculum listings, the department provides literary experiences suitable to the needs of all students, and teachers can design courses to meet their mutual needs and interests. Non-majors, as well as majors, are encouraged to participate and will benefit from this flexible pro- gram. The department aims are broadly cultural and are intended for persons who wish contact with the world of experiences, ideas, and human rela- tions. The courses are directed toward the stu- dent in liberal arts as well as those interested in graduate school and teaching. Concentration in specialized areas is possible for upperclassmen through a variety of seminars and readmg courses which offer close contact with profes- sors. jK 11 Faculty 247 Music It is the purpose of the Department of Music to afford students an opportunity to develop an understanding and an appreciation of nnusic, and to become accomplished musicians. The curricu- lum leading to ttie degree of Bachelor of Music Education is designed specifically for students preparing for the teaching profession. The curric- ulum leading to the degree of Bachelor of Arts with a major in Applied Music is designed specifi- cally for students who wish to concentrate primar- ily on the study of music literature and in the development of their performance skills. Those wishing to achieve the same degree with a major in Theory will follow basically the same curriculum but with less emphasis on performance and a greater concentration on theory and literature. All curricula offered provide a strong foundation for graduate study. The Music curriculum is a competency based program. Each candidate for a degree in music must satisfactorily complete all competencies currently required in order to be cleared for grad- uation. The administration of the program is explained to every new student during the first semester of residence. 1 Dr Larry Parsons and Karen Lanin 2 Lu Ellen Cobb, Miss Caroline Dees, Donna Coffman 3 Recorder Specialist Peter Braunfield per lorms his Senior recital 4 Dr Bobby Loftis.

One of the notable contributions was the senior class gift of $1 ,800 to the Library Endowment Fund. Herbert L. Sharp, director of college relations acknowl- edged the gift to the Library Endowment Fund and stated that the gift was to his knowledge the largest class gift the col- lege has received for many, many years. The thoughtful and generous gift was made possible through a new fund raising project. The project was reorganized and dev eloped the year before by the Class of 1978 under the administration of President Bill Richardson. Mr. Sharp expressed hope that the gift this year could become a precedent for future years. 263 ' S«n)ors Laura Lynn Adkins Summer sville. VW Kappt Pi.

This editor as have past and future editors must contend with approaching deadlines which may cause a desertion in the ranks of the staff However bitter the campaign has been, it is worthy of the infinite favors from our campus professional photographer How- ard Hiner and staff photography editor Paul Plum. I thank those who went that extra mile to make the yearbook possible: Tricia Appleby, Julie Titus, Kim Smith, Jim Warner of The Record Delta for his sports photography, to Ron Richardson of Taylor Publishing Com- pany for his advice and concern, and to our faithful advisor tVIrs Baldwin for being sup- portive Special thanks to those friends who contributed and to my roommate of four memorable years Paul Dingles Wright who endured my insatiable disposition at times concerning the book but whose vivacity never ceased to provide a blithe spirit. And finally, my greatest appreciation to Dee Hughes whose optimism, boundless creativity, and determination made this book possible. The 1 979 MURMURMONTIS was undertaken beginning in March due to the extenuat- ing circumstances of the 1978 publication. Therefore readers, the disintegrating staff is understandable and hopefully you will realize how certain predesigned features were dis- appointingly eliminated due to the unrelenting time element. An index would have been most desirable but impossible based on the time and limited personnel. This book's structure is innovative, and we have tried to include the majority of academic events, stu- dents, sport events, and campus experiences despite the time factor. To those not associated with our college, the photographs and copy might captivate minute interest, but for persons who composed the 1978-1979 Wesleyan community, it is hoped that this publication will be a moderate representation . . For this: I celebrate you my friend. Greg Wriston, Editor Epilogue Cloiing 303 COPY The poem used in the opening sec- tion written by Grace Zaral , Class ot 1 979.
