Henry Pfeiffer Library MacMurray College Jacksonville, Illinois 62650 MacMurray 3 FOREWARD MacMurray College has changed greatly since the initial founding ! 1846. The school was charactered as the Illinois Conference Female ' - Academy in 1847, Illinois Female College in 1863, Illinois Women ' s College in 1893, MacMurray College for Women in 1930, and finally MacMurray College in 1955. Several traditions and ghost stories have survived throughout the years. The 82-83 Tartan staff felt that these relics should be preserved and have chosen to focus upon them in the 82- 83 Tartan. - li mtimi .•„ii— - ■iiiiiiaiiiiiitiMiM ps;-- ' 1 !  S . : If HUH ii yL ' Jill 11 n I jiiiiiiiiiiiiihi |ttiwMH||||j ' DICATION IF I I r m I The 82-83 Tartan is hereby dedicated to the Alumni of MacMurray College who helped establish the fine principles for which MacMurray ml m of m stands today. 4 MacMurray MacMurray Hall is a four-story science hall built in 1928 and renovated in 1966.

MICHALSON MONSTER The Michalson Monster for- merly know as the Marker Monster lived on the roof of Marker hall. When Marker hall was torn down, the Monster followed the women, leaving his footprints along the way, down campus to Michalson hall (which had just been complet- ed). The Michalson Monster presently resides on the roof of Michalson. The picture shown here is of the former Marker hall. It has become a tradition for the freshmen to repaint the footprints of the Michalson Monster each year. ' ' AXE MURDER? One of Jeanne Dixon ' s predic- tions has been passed down through the years because all of the details apply to MacMur- ray. She predicted that in a small midwestern town with two small colleges and a state hospital, a murder will take place. This alleged murder will occur on a college campus where two dormitories, (one with pillars), face each other. The dormitory facing east will be the target of an escaped mental patient who, on a rainy Thursday in April, will take an axe and murder half of a floor before being discovered. Fortu- nately this prediction has never been realized. ' ' BLUE LADY A freshman resident of Old Main hall was jilted by her date for Momecoming. She returned to her dorm room to find her date there with her roommate. Sh e killed both of them and then committed suicide by jumping from her window. The Blue Lady is believed to walk the campus wearing the blue gown that she had planned to wear to Momecoming. It is also believed that if she hands a man a black rose ... he will soon die. Ghost Stories 17 The library began i East Main. The books were moved to the west wing in Main Hall. In 1935, President McClelland asked Mrs. Henry Pfeiffer for a gift for a library building. Mrs. Pfeiffer prom- ised $25,000 and, in 1937, increased her pledge to $100,000 if the College would raise an equal amount. By commencement 1940 the fund ha grown to $280,000. including th Pfeiffer gift. Mrs. Pfeiffer later ad- ded $40,000 to her gift. On May 17, 1941, the faculty and students moved the books from Main to the new building. Traffic officers even blocked off the streets for the event Before Annie Merner Chapel was built. Chapel services were held in various places. Music Hall houst the chapel until enrollment i creased. Then, the college attendt Centenary and Grace. In the vei early years, students were require to attend chapel hour every day, de- votions every evening, and morning and evening services on Sundays. Students were escorted by teachers to the local churches. The 1919 Stu- dent Government secured the right to be on their honor to attend ser- vices. It was noted in 1925 that the majority of students were still at- tending on a regular basis. In 1944, Mrs. Annie Merner Pfeiffer agreed to give $125,000 to the construction of a chapel if the College could ac- quire $75,000 from other sources. Annie Merner Chapel was complet- ed in 1948.

We strive to reach our highest goals. With happiness we ' ll find our souls. We won ' t turn back, we ' ve come too far. We want to learn and grow. When problems should arise, we will not stand alone. The staff will understand and faculty will hold our hand. They ' ll help us through our every trial, and always bring us smiles. They always care, they will be there To guide us through the years. ALMA MATER By stately elms surrounded Our dear old college stands, And with a faith unbounded Our loyalty demands. She guides her daughters all a-right As to her sides they cling. And shields them well when dark the night Neath the shadow of their wing. (Chorus) MacMurray dear, we love but thee And will be always true. The color shall our ensign be The yellow and the blue. Hail to our Alma Mater. The pride of all the land. We will loyal be forever And by her side we ' ll stand. Her fame for aye we will unfold Till known to all she ' ll be. And oft her glories be retold By us o ' er land and sea.

In 1928 the soplmnore class decreed that the freshmen wea reen ribba ssothat the freshmen could be easily guisnemtrom t%e dlUfjlLglasses. The freshmen were threatene with a 25 cent fine time they were caught without their ribbon. Also, on e they put on their ribbon, they could not re- move it until Tmmiksgiving Day The tradition of burning the ribbons began jKmpvember 28, 1928. The freshmen women left their dorm, le mkgang kn } as the Rotte mples, and went into the bacl rt. Th rn they burned ribbons in anger, along with anm gy of the sophonrn lassrhe burning of the ribbons became g mly establish ed tradition the following In 1928 the purpose of the tying of the ribbons was to ridicule the freshmen. Now the tying of the ribbon is an official welcome to MacMurray. The tying of the green ribbon is a very old MacMurray tradition. It is also a very special one, in that it binds all the past, present, and future MacMurray women. It is a tie that makes all Mac women, in a way, sisters. With the tying of the ribbon, the wom- en of Mac are sayiru very special way, ' ' Welcome Jx) Mac- Murray. 1 ■)est to you, may your ggms come, true May old father time never be unkind And through the years, save yowr smile and tears, They are souveniers, they makewhusic in your heart.

The team consisted mainly of sophomores and freshmen with three of the freshmen starting each game. Coach Carol Wilson stated that the 4- 25 record did not reflect the girls ' abilities as volleyball players but rather their inexperience of working together. She felt that the girls were the most talented players that she had coached and is very hopeful for next season with many of these players returning with the experience that they lacked previously.

Belles Lettres Belles Lettres is a woman ' s society involved in planning social outings for the children of the Illi- nois School for the Deaf Belles Lattres was the first organization on the MacMurray campus, orga- nizing in 1851. In its earlier days Belles Lettres held weekly meet- ings featuring presentations of essays, debates, mu- sic, and epistolaries. The big events of the year were exhibitions and commencement. Today the members of Belle Lettres are busy planning activi- ties for the children of ISD. Roller skating, bowling, picnics, and pizza parties are a few of these activities. The big event of the year is Go, Fly a Kite Day which is co-sponsored with the Big Brother Big Sister Program. 124 Belles Lettres Phi Nu First row: Lori Lewis, Linn Baker, Lori Dyer, Ginny LaMont, Marilee House, Crissy Mines, Valarie Zeilmann, Merry Rhoades Second row: Susie Coaty, Karen Dolahan, Catiiy Critz, Karen Fitzgerald, Fran McCIain Beth linger, Judy Wysong.

The society has changed consider- ably in character and purpose but with pride in their history, their traditions and their grandmothers. PhiNu began as a liter- ary society but functions at present as a service society. Once very similar to Belles Lettres, Phi Nu has, through the years, de- veloped its own unique personality. Phi Nu 125 T h t a g m a LOYALTY FRIENDSHIP SPIRITED FUN Theta Sigma was founded in 1912. The motto of Theta Sigma is: To faith, virtue; to virtue, knowl- edge.

The birth of the Holy Fools, the orga- nization of which this group is a part, was inspired by the movie The Par- able. Jesus is portrayed in the movie as a clown in a circus who goes about helping his fellow performers. At first they follow him happily, but later come to resent his model of self-sacri- fice and love, and they kill him. The Reverend Bill Peckham saw this movie and conceived the idea of a Christian ministry in clown costume. He started the first Holy Fools group at the First United Methodist Church in Springfield, Illinois. The MacMurray College Holy Fools visit local nursing homes and have written seven innovative worship ser- vices. They perform all over Illinois and, upon occasion, the adjoining states. They hope to spread the love of Christ to all in a new way. 128 Holy Fools First row: Mike Kelly, Paul Schelich. Monica Layden, Rose Ruppel, Tina Thompson.

The Newman Club is an organization of Cathohc students with a Catholic priest as advisor. Its purpose is to help students grow in their knowledge and faith of the Catholic religion. The club dates back to the late 1800 ' s with John Henry Cardinal Newman. With his dedicated interest in the high- er education of students in science and the arts as well as religion, he estab- lished Newman Clubs on university and college campuses across the coun- try. Some of the MacMurray Newman Club ' s activities have included a ques- tion and answer session on Catholi- cism, a blood drive, Christmas caroling at local nursing homes, campus masses and social events. Newman Club 129 Religious Life Committee The Religious Life Committee, or RLC, is a student organization developed to provide a religious base for MacMurray College.

MacMurray CoUege ' sHAWy Oiher, which used to boldly proclaim itself as The only small- college daily newspaper east of the Mississip- pi, now enjoys a new, loftier status: it ' s the only small-college daily newspaper on either side of the Mississippi. The paper ' s masthead added the new claim following the publication of The College Dai- ly in the United States. In compiling the re- port, Dr. Paul Atkins of West Virginia Univer- sity took a close look at the 102 campus news- papers published on a daily basis. Of that total, 101 newspapers are printed on university campuses. The lone college daily is the pride of MacMurray ' s Dr. Allan Metcalf and his staff of journalism students. The Other was one of 16 dailies visited by Atkins last fall. His research pointed out that the annual operating cost of $8,000 is the low- est of all newspapers studied. As for its role as a watchdog for students, Editor Al Lewis told Atkins that The Other ranks as the only way to find out what ' s going on. The above article appeared in the Winter 1983 issue of Mac News. The Daily Other 131 Kay Pitman, Laura Laughlin. Dr. Robert Seufert, Allison Gibson. Nancy Lewis.

The MacMurray Student Association, more commonly called Sen- ate, is a representative body of students elected by the student body. Senate ' s ultimate goal is to improve student life on the MacMurray campus. Senate does this through funding campus organizations, communicating ideas to the administration, and defending student rights. This year ' s Senate attempted to better serve the students by: updating organization recognition, proposing changes to the Judi- cial Board, increasing student representation, holding an open forum on the proposed calendar and curriculum, and improving communication with the administration. 138 MSA The German Club unites all students who have studied German before or are now taking classes with those who have an interest in the German language and culture. It helps to make speakers and outside events available to the campus, but also organizes trips to events off campus or to sites of interest. The German Club ' s service projects usually involve hosting interesting events for the community. Dave McDermitt, Romy Henhott, Rene Schmitt- gens, Anne Marie Fuhrig.

It is affiliated on the state level with Student Nurses of Illinois, and on the national level with National Stu- dent Nurses Association. All MacMurray nursing students are considered mem- bers of MacMurray Student Nurses Asso- ciation even if they chose not to join SNAI MSNA 143 Big Brother-Big Sister The MacMurray Big Brothers and Big Sisters gathered with their httle brothers and little sisters for a group picture, above. Big Brother-Big Sister is a voluntary organi- zation whose major purpose is to provde chil- dren with the needed one to on friendship and guidance. This is done by pairing the child with an adult or college volunteer who will be the child ' s big brother or sister. Little brothers and sisters are children rang- ing from 6 to 17 who would benefit from the guidance, experiences, companionship and un- derstanding a big brother or sister can give. They may be from I.S.D., IS. V.I. or the com- munity. The responsibilities of a big brother or sister include spending a few hours a week or every other week enjoying each other and develop- ing a bond of trust and friendship. The activi- ties that can be shared with a little brother or sister are in numberable. It can range any- where from picnics, walks, sports, to trips to Spatz, swimming at Mac, or just about any- thing of mutual interest. Once a month the Association sponsors an activity for the volun- teers and the children in the organization. In September, they took a trip into St. Louis. They toured the St. Louis Arche, had a picnic in the park, went to the magic House and stopped at MacDonald ' s on the way home. In December they had an annual Christmas skat- ing party. Santa showed up and distributed httle stockings full of candy to the children. Everyone had a great time. Other activities have included swimming, bowling, and a Fun Day at Nichols Park. Whatever the occasion, the time spent with the child is rewarding both for the child and the volunteer. 14.4 Big Br 0 Big Sis Black Student Union First row: Pinkie Murdock, Carol Beal, Leslie Beal.

Expert consultation was obtained in 1978-79 with the employment of Mary Hazzard, R.N., Ph.D., F.A.A.N. She wrote the Proposal to Initiate a Baccalaureate Nursing Program at MacMurray College. The plan was very thorough. An acting director, Betty Richardson, R.N., M.S.N. , was employed to initiate the program in ► 1978. In 1979, Sue Grigsby. R.N., M.S.N., was employed and the program ' began in the fall of 1979 with 8 students. The approach was eclectic and ahe students completed their foundational courses. The initial nursing course was taught during the second semester of the sophomore year, after students had acceptably completed the Momentary courses. Follow- ing completion of the sophomore level, five students were eUgible to continue intMfpursing program. The acting director resigned to contin- ue her e mn and Cathy White, R.N., M.S.N., was em yed in iho Spring of 1981.

DYSINGER 1897-1983 On the morning of February 7. 1983, Wendell S. Dysinger died. A simple statement, but how much of MacMurray and its history passed with the death of this one man. He came to MacMurray College in 1940, and for the next quarter of a century when one said, THE DEAN, they meant Wendell Dysinger. As a student, lam sure I saw him during the year of 1940-41 but my first memory of him is that of the Honor Society ceremony on the steps of Old Mam after the 1941 Honors Chapel There he stood, slightly stooped, hands on hips and with the best vantage point of anyone to observe the activities, for he stood head and shoulders above the crowd. In so many ways, that statement is characteristic of his life. Soon after Dean Dysinger came to MacMurray. he was instrumental in the development of the Graduate School, offering degrees at the master ' s level in Psychology, Education, and Physical Education. This program continued until 1962 In the mid-fifties, with a grant from the Marshall Field Foundation. Dr. Dysinger pointed the College in a direction which would make it known throughout the country as an outstanding institution for the training of teachers of the handicapped. When in October 1955. the Trustees established a co-ordinate College for Men. it was Dean Dysinger who had the responsibility- of assuring that its academic standards would be equal to those of the College for Women. In 1961, Dean Dysinger s title was changed from Dean of the faculty to Vice-President and Dean of the College. At that time he turned his attention to institutional research and directed a three-college study of attrition in liberal arts colleges. Retirement in 1961 brought new duties as Dr. Dysinger was invited to be Acting Dean at McKendree College where he served for three years — two years as Dean and one year as Chairman of the Psychology Department. In 1968. he and his gracious wife returned to make their home in Jacksonville. They could be found on campus frequently having dinner with the students in the dining halL Dr. Dysinger was also associated with the Jacksonville State Hospital and Illinios College m teaching and counseling after his return from McKendree College. Dr Dysinger was an educator, psychologist, ordained minister of the Lutheran church, counselor and friend. His accom- plishments fill pages. Among them are degrees from Wittenberg University and the State University of Iowa Along with three other educators. Dr. Dysinger founded the Illinois Guidance and Personnel Association and served as its president H e received the CA. Michelman award for outstanding service to that organization. He authored three books and numerous articles for professional journals. He served as president of the North Central Association of Academic Deans and received their citation in recognition of his leadership and guidance at the annual Stillwater Conference of Academic Deans. He was a fellow of the American Psychological Association and a Diplomate in Counseling m that organization. He also served as a member of their Examining Board. The list of Dr. Dysinger ' s accomplishments goes on and on, but I really believe that of all the accolades and awards, he was always most proud of the one bestowed by MacMurray students and alums when they called him my triend. The death of Dr. Wendell S. Dysinger saddened the entire campus community at MacMurray in February. At the request of Mac News, two of Dr. Dysinger ' s many friends and former associates — Dr. Phoebe Wilikms and Dr. Ruth Brookhart — 200 wrote the tribute above in his memory. It appeared in the Winter 1983 issue of Mac News.
