For Birmingham-South- ern College and Birmingham, the city where BSC resides, fortunate- ly this change has usually brought about progress and growth. Incorporated in 1871, more than five years ' after the American Civil War, Birmingham is young as big cities go. Dubbed The Magic City because of its rapid population growth, Birmingham has multiplied — in slightly more than a century — from 1,200 people in the beginning to a population of over 930,000 in today ' s metropoli- tan area. Birmingham-Southern College has been an integral part of Birmingham ' s growth for most of the city ' s short but rich history. Birmingham College was estab- lished on the Hilltop in 1898. In 1 918 the school merged with Southern University, another Methodist institution founded 1856 in Greensboro, Alabama. Birmingham- Southern College, as the oldest higher education institu- tion in the city, has a rich history due to its location and its record of teaching and learning, BSC President Neal R. Berte says. That history is inextricably tied to the growth of the city of Birmingham. Until the 1970 ' s, the steel-related industries provided much of the impetus for Birmingham ' s physical and eco- nomic growth. Since the mid- 1970 ' s, however, steel ' s con- tribution to the economy has fallen drastically, forcing the business community to shift emphasis to new areas. The city also needed to leave behind its past of racial violence and segregation. Birmingham has experienced a remark- able transition in many areas in recent years, Berte says. We have shifted from a heavy-industry to a service based economy, and we have formed a more racially balanced city government, and there has been an infusion of con- struction activity in the downtown area. The dozen years since the mid- 1970 ' s has been a time of change and growth for BSC as well. Birmingham-Southern is in partnership with the larger com- munity ' Berte says. As the city grows and develops, so does the college. All of us benefit from the new Birmingham which is develop- ing. At BSC we have been fortu- nate to experience considerable growth in the last few years. We ' ve doubled our enrollment, doubled out endowment, the faculty has in- creased one-third in size, and we have expanded the campus and our teaching facilities. Seniors graduating in 1987 have seen many changes during their four years at Southern. They have watched the construction and completion of Olin Com- puter Science and Mathematics Center — BSC ' s newest building — and the demolition of Erskine Ramsay Hall — BSC ' s oldest building. Growth continues, as the new Marguerite Jones Harbert building goes up to fill the space left by Ramsay, and as workers complete the widen- ing of Arkedelphia Road and construction of a new main entrance to the campus. This continued growth depends on support and finan- cial contributions from members of the Birmingham com- munity, Berte says. The support that we receive from the larger community enables us to fulfill our mission as a liberal arts institution. Birmingham-Southern College is a growing school for a growing city. We certainly have not arrived arthe end of what we need to do, Berte says, but I believe we have a very bright future ahead of us, both as a college and as a community. by John DeWitt I -DIVISION STUDENT LIFE STUDENT LIFE— II CAFETERIA The cafeteria has been a great source of controversy and intrigue this year. After many years of students complaining about the food service, the administration finally decided to do something about it. Committees were formed, polls were taken, and bids from other food services were taken. Just when we all thought a new food service had been chosen, Shamrock comes around and sues the school for breach of contract. Hopefully, by next year, or whenever the trial is over, we will have that new food service, but until then we will have to put up with that taco sal- ad a little while longer. 13 DORM LIFE Living on cimpoj n onr r .prfi nc r no Mudtnt will cvrt lofgfl X uny people iht ««mc gendtf, bout th« umc I agr, «nd in luch tiny I .vf th ttl vn , c«i, ilw ictngfiiloi, ihr ilo.li f dio, th hot rolWri, and the makeupj miffof M plugged in i.. ;:.. i. -li. i X i iimit learn m .

STUDENT LIFE i i6 STUDENT LIFE ■ t ' . i CAMPUS CONSTRUCTION Every year it seems the campus gets a small facelift; a new road here, a new building there. This year it gets both. The new entrance will certainly be an attractive and convenient addition to the campus. It will not only be an a entrance to one of the finest Liberal Arts Colleges in the southeast, but also a gateway to West Birmingham, so says Dr. Berte. But progress sometimes has its downfalls. The loss of Ramsay Hall was much like the loss of a close friend to some, or at least the loss of a great visual aid to some art historians. The new Harbert building should prove to be attractive as well as useful. Only half of us will get to use it since it will not be finished until the summer of 1988. Who knows what will be the next addition to the campus; maybe even more parking space? Nah.

Berte Prepares BSC to Accept Those Changes It ' s a link after 6 a.m. on the Birmingham- Southern Campus. The early fall sky slowly lightens in the East as the dew and mist linger on the Hilltop before the hot day ' s sun burns them away. In BSC ' s old gymnasium, a solitary figure trots briskly around the basketball court as the dawn ' s early light gradually penetrates the buildings gloom. The early morning jogger is Birmingham-South- ern ' s familiar leader dressed in unfamiliar attire. President Neal R. Berte is wearing shorts and a sweatshirt with BSC emblazoned across the front. Pretty boring isn ' t it, Berte says several times as he laps the court 36 times — two miles in a little more than 20 minutes, a pace few college or corporate presidents could match. It ' s mindless excercise, Berte says afterwards as he leaves the gym. But you know sometimes I find that I do my best thinking about important things then, rather than when I ' m at meetings or writing a paper or dictating a letter. Berte excercises every morning, alternating be- tween jogging and rowing on a rowing machine. I think you need to excercise every day when you have a stressful job, he says. Indeed, Berte is a busy man. Today is a typical day: after his excercise, he ' 11 head across Birmingham for a breakfast business meeting, return to campus to handle school business such as answering mail (he dictates dozens of letters daily) , lunch with a new Birmingham resident, spend much of the afternoon in meetings, then attend an even- ing function for the college. Sometimes, he says, it gets to be a pretty long day. Berte defies any notion of academic leaders being removed from the outside world. Not restricting himself to educational leadership, Berte joins the city ' s top business and political leaders as a board member on numerous businesses, civic groups and service organizations such as Parisian ' s Inc., the Greater Birmingham Chamber of Commerce and the Jefferson-Shelby division of the American Heart association. If the ' ivory tower ' concept of the middle ages was ever true, it ' s not now, Berte says. Today we need to be involved in the community. When you ' re the oldest higher educational institution in the city, you have a responsibility to the community. Berte finds outside activity crucial to BSC ' S success, but says, 1 am first and foremost an educator. That ' s what I ' m here for. He says his role on-campus has shifted over the last decade. For the first four or five years the emphasis was on restoring the institution to finan- cial stability and getting the academic program reor- ganized, as well as rehabilitating the college ' s im- age, he says. The last four or five years we have been undergirding the college ' s liberal arts core and improving the physical plant. For the next four or five years we have to capitalize on the momentum of our improved image, to get the recognition as one of the best liberal arts colleges in the nation. At 47, Berte has come a long way in the relatively short time since his youth. Berte grew up in St. Bernard, a small suburb of Cincinnati, Ohio. It was very much a middle -to-lower-income family town, he says. It was very blue-collar — about a third of the community worked for Proctor and Gamble. Berte ' s father owned and operated a dry-cleaning business in St. Bernard and his mother was a secre- tary in a Cincinnati firm. Berte stayed home for college, attending the Uni- versity of Cincinnati all the way through his B.S. and M.S. in political science. He involved himself on campus and displayed his propensity for leader- ship as president of the junior and senior classes and as a newspaper writer and business manager. After receiving his master ' s , Berte received a Rockfeller Foundation Fellowship to seminary. He attended Union Theological Seminary in New York City. His experiences there convinced him to choose col- lege administration over ministry. He married Anne, and they returned to the University of Cin- cinnati, where he entered a doctoral program in counseling, with minors in administration and po- litical science. He completed his thesis, a compara- tive study of international students at Cincinnati and other institutions, in 1965. Berte made two work stops before coming to the University of Alabama in 1970. In Tuscaloosa he was dean and vice-president of New College. He left there to take the helm at BSC on February i, 1976, at age 35. After 1 1 years on the Hilltop, Berte says he had his family are still happy here. I really enjoy working with people, and taking the mission of the college and trying to mobilize the resources in such a way to provide an educational experience. I enjoy immensely the interaction with students and facul- Berte isn ' t modest about his accomplishments,! but he refuses to take credit for BSC ' s growth and I improvement. At best I have been sort of a traffic cop pulling things together. Again I think it ' s the quality of the faculty and students who have been the saving grace — it ' s easy for people to focus the good, and the bad, on the office of the president, but it ' s really no one person. —John DeWitt 22— FACULTY STAFF FACULTY STAFF— 23 D m H e G e P a r n a t d s ' ' e I Gwen Dill — Administrative As- sistant to the Dean of Students Polly Wheeler — Secretary Counseling Center Robert Moxley — Vice Presi- dent for Business Affairs 24-FACULTY 8C STAFF Natalie Davis — Professor of Political Science.

A student who attends college without taking part in some organizations misses out on half of the college experience. No matter what we do in life, we will all be dealing with people at one time or another. Working together as a group towards common goals teaches us a great deal about real life and real life obstacles, not to mention the fact that these organizations enable us to meet new friends with common interests.

I get dressed after my shower and grab my book bag. 7:45 AM — I ' m in the cafeteria at the fraternity table taking about tonight ' s party. Oh, I got to get a date for tonight. I stroll across to my favorite sorority table and sweet talk myself a date. Actually, I did everything short of getting on my knees. 8:15 AM — My Biology professor informs us that we have a four chapter exam Monday. I ' ve got to start studying because I need an A . 9:20 AM — I run into my Chemistry class late because Biology was held over. What a course load. I don ' t know if I ' ll make it through this year. 1 1 :oo AM — I ' m in the library working on a huge term paper for English. This is my last English class. The work is just too hard and boring. 12:30 PM — The cafeteria lines are so long. But, I have to eat now ' cause I want to start studying for my Bio. test and type my paper. 2:30 PM — All the terminals are busy in the computer lab. I wait ten minutes and one opens up. It will take at least an hour and half to finish this paper. I ' m a lousy typist. 4:30 PM — I ' m at the fraternity house emptying trash cans and cleaning up for the party. 6:00 PM — Friday night, fish night in the caf . I see my date and remind her about the party. No I didn ' t forget. 6:45 PM — Shower and shave soon but first I have to pick out my clothes. That ' s a tacky outfit. I pick a different shirt. Girls are hard to please. I guess guys are too. 7:30 PM — I ' m out of the shower and dressed for the party. I ' m walking out the door when the phone rings. It ' s my mom. She calls too much. I ' m in a hurry, mom. I ' ll call you back in a few nimutes from the frat house. Big party tonight. 9:00 PM — I ' m sorry it took me so long to call back. The band is great. My date ' s having a blast. She ' s not the only one. What ' s that mom? No I don ' t think I can come home for the weekend. I ' ve got so much to do. MORE STUDENT LIFE— 131 132— HAPPENINGS Birmingham-Southern College was the sight of a prestigious gathering of women again this year. The college sponsored its annual Gala durning May. Gala 8, keeping with tradition, was a fine success this year. The Gala 8 committee chose twelve very deserving recipients for its honors this year. Those honored were Betty Beale, Donna de Varona, Katharine Dunham, Anne Suther- land Fuchs, Betty Furness, Dorothy Gillespie, Dr. Mathilde Krim, Mary Wells Lawrence, Azie Taylor Morton, Carroll Petrie, Dinah Shore, and Lesley Stahl. Each woman was honored for her particu- lar accomplishments in her chosen field of endeavor. With the tremendous support of the faculty, staff, and students of Birming- ham-Southern as well as committe members and volunteers this year ' s Gala was a huge success. MORE STUDENT LIFE— 133 WHERE DO WE GO? It ' s Friday pushin ' evening, working day is done. Hard week of classes over, now I ' m looking for some fun. Gonna grab a few of my friends And take them for a ride Right down the street right close to home To a place they call The Tide . What ' s an overworked ' Southern student to do when the studying is (well, almost) done? What more could one ask for than the BSC annex , the Tide and Tiger? At the Tide a student ' s stress (and even consciousness) disappears with the surroundings (genuine shrine to Bear Bryant) , the atmosphere (George Jones and Merle Haggard) , the menu (cheap pitchers and chili) , nightly activities (quarters, jet, Mexican, etc.) , and the clientele (friends and others) . The real appeal of the Tide and Tiger is not the atmosphere, the menu, or even the Bear Bryant mementos, but the fact that it is the closest thing to a ' Southern gathering place. In the absence of planned activities, there ' s a place to count on for a little social action. Besides, where else in Birmingham can you hear the Rolling Stones and Conway Twitty on the same quarter? i34._MORE STUDENT LIFE Gonna toss dollar beers, make a few trips to the stalls. Don ' t matter much anyhow, I can always read the walls. Seem to fit right in at the place, no matter how I roam God knows its true the ' Tide and Tiger ' Has got to be my second home. — from The Tide Song by Fentress Seagroves Submitted by Mary Lyn Weaver MORE STUDENT LIFE— 1 35 FASHION 136— HAPPENINGS i ashion on the Hilltop is a complicated issue. Most students live out of a closet and a couple of drawers. Its hard to get up for an 8:00 ' clock class in Organic Chemistry and care about how you look. However, fashion trends do surface in the midst of the turmoil a college tudent goes through at Southern. The campus saw a return to sixties and seventies clothing, Tie-dyed shirts and bleached and torn jeans ' ere prominent styles. Designer clothing was still popular. Names like Ralph Lauren, Liz Claiborne, Georges Marciano, and Perry Ellis ' ere on everyone ' s clothes. Guess and Levis were big jeans favorites while Polo and Forenza ranked high in shirts. New favorites in doth- ig were Outback Red and Coca Cola clothing. Boxer shorts and Swatch watches were still popular among girls and guys. Duckhead lants and Jams were still hot items and a new trend was seen: golf hats for guys. Wrinkled, though a mother ' s nightmare, was the stan- ard since most students don ' t have time to iron. It is evident from the fashion on the Hilltop that most people are trying to strike a hap- ly medium between busy, bothered and stressed college student and GQ or Vogue fashion statements. Apparently, fashion on the Hill- op is in the eye of the beholder. Matt Brown HAPPENINGS— 137 THE INTERIM EXPERIENCE fe V 138— HAPPENINGS Birmingham-Southern offers its students a unique experience be- tween their Fall and Spring terms. In January students are required to take one course in discipline offered at ' Southern. These courses are different and are classes that are not usually offered at the school. The experience is unique in that most of the students would never have a chance to take such classes if not offered during the Interim. The classes are one-of-a-kind type classes that for some will come only once in their lifetime. The Interim program at ' Southern can be divided into two categories: on-campus projects and off-campus experiences. HAPPENINGS— 139 i:-s ' {y ' mm:. 140— HAPPENINGS OFF-CAMPUS EXPERIENCES This type of interim offers students another unique op- portunity. That is to learn while traveling abroad. This year trips were offered to Australia for business, Costa Rica for Spanish language studies, and France and Bel- gium for foreign language study. The chance to travel for some was a once in a lifetime experience. The travel and learning opportunity adds to the Interim Experience. Also, available to students was the chance to go to Tennes- see for a science minimester or to Florida for an interim called Habitats for Humanity. The Interim Experience is one that should be treasured by BSC students. Where else would students get such a unique chance to learn in this way? kM amm i— 141 N. % 142— HAPPENINGS ON-CAMPUS PROJECTS This year the on ampus projects included interims in Photo- graphic Chemistry, Histology, Ada Programming Language, and Performance Practicum in Dance just to name a few. A wide variety of courses was available for students to choose from. Virtually every professor teaches some interim at ' Southern each year. Students had the chance to learn something they may never get to again. This is the value of the Interim Experience. Also, available to the student are contracted internships and off- campus work supervised by a faculty member. Contracted in- ternships allow students to get work experience in their chosen field. Off-campus interims allow students to use their own imagination to create a unique learning opportunity under the guidance of a professor. These add to the interim possibilities. ; ' Vti, ' |V-A-f44. ; - •i - ' ,:-■ ji . • ;:i- i I •iJ INlliliilli!! ' !. •!.!-! HAPPENINGS— 143 ' HOMECOMING 1987 144— HAPPENINGS The Birmingham-Southern Panthers played in their homecoming game on February 7, 1987. The Panthers met the tough Athens State Panthers who were ranked first in the division. The game turned out well for ' Southern as the team defeated Athens 76-58. Support for the game was strong with fraternities and sororities competing for the Spirit Trophy which was given to the group proving the most spirit during various events. Activities included a lawn decoration contest and cafeteria decoration contest. KA won the trophy this year with SN and SAE following. The Homecoming Queen was Christy Bauman for 1987. Homecoming was a big success for all those involved. lii HAPPENINGS— 145 AWARDS DAY Keeping with tradition, the faculty and administration of the school set aside a day to honor some of BSC ' s finest students. That day was Awards Day 1987. Announcements are made about the various student organizations and those students chosen to reside on them. Awards are also given and are mainly non-academic. Two new awards were also announced this year. They were the Genzan Chiba Outstanding International Stu- dent Award and the Southern Volunteer Services Award. Those honored on this day are, truly, the pride of BSC. 146— HAPPENINGS HONORS DAY The annual Honors Day program was held in May this year. Seniors have their first chance to parade in their cap and gown along with the distinguished faculty. This year ' s program con- sisted of the awarding of an honorary degree, presenting campus wide honors, and, finally, the announcement of senior awards and honors. The Honors Day program is traditionally an op- portunity to see BSC at its best.

Their record speaks for itself — they were the SEC champs, won the division I Invitational Tournament at the University of North Carolina — Asheville. The team was also the district 27 runner-up. Impressively, they also had five Academic All- Americans: John Dalton, Steve Rueve, Kurt Senn, Randy Riehl, and David Bryant. They also had one All-Ameri- can, George Harrell. The low point of the season seemed never ending — a long string of injuries that made it take out uncertain who would be able to play each game. The high point of the season was being able to overcome these injuries, resulting in the team winning the SEC championship. Nothing could be a better testament to the teamwork and dedica- tion of the team than to be able to overcome the injuries they sustained. The soccer program is improving steadily at BSC. A nationally reknown camp is being organized for this sum- mer. West Germany ' s Timo Zahnleiter (head coach at Frankfurt) , Graham Roberts, an English National player, and Chris Waddle of Rite English First Division will attend. Moreover, the BSC soccer team will be touring West and East Germany playing exhibition games this summer.

Truly I say to you, If a seed of grain does not go into the earth and come to an end, it is still a seed and no more; but through its death it gives much fruit. John 12:24 Lee Ann Tucker 1968- 1987 Josie V. Woody 1923-1987 In the depth of your hopes and desires lies your silent knowledge of the beyond; And like seeds dreaming beneath the snow your heart dreams of spring. Trust the dreams, for in them is hidden the gate of eternity. The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran 268 Joseph Stephen Noser 1965- 1986 Nothing Gold Can Stay Nature ' s first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf ' s a flower; But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf. So Eden sank to grief, So dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay. Robert Frost 269 270— CLOSING Well, it ' s the end of another year here at B.S.C. I can relax now and look fondly back at all the late nights spent here in this room. I had a tremendous amount of help from my staff and friends. I could never have done it alone (and I never intended to either!) I hoped this yearbook has captured what it was like at Birmingham-Southern in the academic year of 1986-87. 1 tried to show that student life and the different activities here on campus are what ' Southern is all about. Greeks and other organizations play a major role in our lives. It seems that everyone on and off campus is very involved in something whether it ' s maintaining a 4.0 G.P.A. or an active social life or both. This is a growing school and a large part of it is the growing city of Birmingham. I ' ve lived in Birmingham for most of my life and although I do complain about it sometimes (and we all do) , I have a great fondness for it. The novelist, Willie Morris, once said that all Southerners would eventually return to the South if they ever left it. I believe that most of the ' Southerners will.
