He received a B.A. from Southwestern University in Memphis, his B.D. from Union Theological Seminary in Virginia and went on to get his Ph.D. from the University in Edinburgh in Scotland. As a teacher Dr. Ramsay is dedicated to helping students understand the Christian faith and then apply their understanding to real life situations.

He is a minister in the Presbyterian Church U.S.A., President of the American Association of University Professors, a member of the Professional Standards Committee, and a member of the President's Council.

Dr. Bill Ramsey Dr. Waddle Dr. L. C. Waddle has been the main man inthe Religion department for many years.

Over the years Dr. Waddle has achieved his B.A., B.D., and Th.M. degrees and an honorary Doctorate of Divinity. These, plus his many years of experience, make him well qualified in teaching Religion, New Testament Greek, and Humanities 223. Dr. Waddle is also involved on campus as a member of the Faculty Communications Committee, the advisor of SGA, the campus chaplain, and as the tunoffioiall job finder for beginning ministerial students. The fact that Dr. Waddle loves his job is evident from his remarks: I enjoy and am grateful for the privilege of working in a college community. One of my greatest satisfaction is to see a person develop throughout hisfher career professionally. This is especially true in the case of a beginning student who does not seem to hold much promise but who turns out well in later life. Their growth keeps me encouraged about what we are doing as a college community. T Dr. Isobel Wheeler
