Rhoda M wry Doersey A woman President was long overdue at Goucher College. By unanimous agreement, the woman chosen was well worth the wait. F ollowing the decision to fill the Presidential vacancy with a woman of valor, Gou- cher experienced a renaissance. The interest of the student body was reawakened and we felt guided in a positive direction. Faith was renewed in Goucher as an institution for women. Rhoda M. Dorsey inspired the revival. The student body holds great respect for Dr. Dorsey as an individual, a woman, a leader, an educator, and a friend. An initial encounter with the efficient no-nonsense president might intimidate some students. A few minutes of conversation will undoubtedly expose an extremely congenial, compassionate, and witty woman. Each individualis picture of Rhoda Dorsey is bound to differ. This is indicative of our tiFirst Ladyisi, diversity. Pictures of hullabaloo boots, nurses caps, three-dimensial maps, and ijockt, sweatshirts and sneakers help create the collage. Scholarly merit shines through in brilliant colors. Donnybrook Fair wishes to honor and acknowledge Rhoda M. Dorsey. It is our hope that her term be fruitful and fulfilling. With these aspirations we dedicate Donnybrook Fair 1975 to Rhoda Mary Dorsey. Michelle S. Babbitt
