Table of Contents 3 . . . started the new school year with enthusiasm. Right from the start you were in the action. Walk- ing the three flights of stairs with suitcases and boxes in hand, you were excited about the year before you. You enjoyed the last of the summer weather at picnics by the lake. And before you knew it you had settled into a daily routine — sleep, classes, eat, homework Friendships blos- somed as the leaves turned brown and the weather turned cold. Comhuskin ' spirit rose high. Picnics with cotton candy and ice cream sandwiches, waterfights by moonlight, big-sis songs that came from the heart, and the deafening noise of laughter and chants in Jones Auditorium. Halloween and Thanksgiving followed as the year flew by full of activities and class work. The grand finale of your year oc- curred the night of the Meredith Christmas dinner. After a full- course meal you and your friends lighted 5,000 luminaries. You created a breath-taking atmo- sphere and shared a joyous occasion. You made first semester special because you were there. Opening Opening 5 « 4 6 Opening WfcdbuJkl Freshmen Orientation! Bumper to bumper traffic as you made your way up the Meredith drive, a rainbow of balloons, pamphlet after pamphlet to read, and smiling faces directed you to your new home away from home. The feelings you had at that moment? — Scared, sad, over- whelmed, and very excited. Your week was packed — hall meetings, information seminars, academic counseling, decorating your room, and making new friends. You are finally here — Welcome to Meredith College!! Opening 7 . . . came back from break ready for the spring semester. You and your friends reunited to discuss Christmas excursions and to plan the new times ahead. Different classes aroused new interests, and you became even more involved in clubs and activities. Then it happened — Spring Fever! The sun came out — and so did you — on the breezeways, by the lake, in front of the dorms, and any place else that the sun shone bright. The seniors painted the beehive with their fondest memories and everyone enjoyed the outdoor picnics. It was a terrific year. You know why it was so terrific — you know exactly what happened. You Were There. ft- r : n 8 Opening Opening 9 YOU felt the enthusiasm and spirit generated during Cornhuskin ' . You were part of a family called a residence hall. You were involved in the issues and you made a difference. You know what Student Life at Meredith College is all about because, You Were There. 10 Student Life Student Life 1 1 Lisa Robie comes out of her cocoon a better butterfly. W ♦ w Becky Smith and Terry Williams command the Junior Army. Meredith College CornhuskirY 1985 was a hugh success. The sopho- more class of 1988 broke-in the new freshmen with lovely morning wake-up calls and midnight lullabyes. The clanging of pots and pans, screeching whistles, and loud voices was enough to get the freshmen on their feet to fight back. The week continued with water fighting, courtyard rolling, and even late night phone calling. Amidst all the class competi- tion, Big Sisters and Little Sisters expressed their feelings, serenading each other by candlelight. The real competition started around four o ' clock Thursday, November 7. Each class paraded into the courtyard yelling their theme songs in their loudest voices. The freshmen entered alone believing that One Thing Leads To Another. The sophomores entered the courtyard by taking a Walk on the Wild side. The juniors chose a more organzied entry chant- ing boot camp phrases to back their theme, Be All You Can Be. Finally, the seniors made a grand debut carrying balloons before a procession of moving history. It began with man ' s invention of the wheel and proceeded through time to the airplane that flew overhead trailing their theme Nothing Lasts Forever ... It Only Gets Better. After a tremendous picnic, everyone headed for Jones Auditorium for the final competition of Cornhuskin ' 85. This year ' s hostesses were Beth Cunningham and Karen Mann. They dressed up as Pebbles and Barn- Bam and helped carry out the overall Cornhuskin ' theme — Back to the Future. As each class gathered in the auditorium, cheers and songs grew louder and louder. The competition started and the auditorium echoed with chants before and after each event as the classes anticipated victory. Benefiting from their previous experience, the seniors ' program ran smoothly from event to event. The freshmen and sophomores, on the other hand seemed to be still trying to get their programs going. The juniors presented great competition against the seniors. It looked like the judges should have a tough time choosing a winner. With the reading of the judges results, the evening came to a climax. Every class was a winner in at least one event. The victory was once again rewarded to the senior class, and spirits soared. Everyone left the auditorium to continue celebrating at Cody ' s on Western Boulevard, fraternity row, and other places off campus. Another Cornhuskin ' that we would never forget was complete. It was great! But to appreciate how great it really was, you had to be there. You were! Freshmen in the courtyard wait for others to follow their lead. 14 Student Life Competition Results Cooperation : 1st Place, seniors 2nd Place, juniors 3rd Place, freshmen Attendance 1st Place, freshmen 2nd Place, juniors 3rd Place, seniors Apple 1st Place, seniors Bobbing: 2nd Place, freshmen 3rd Place, juniors Class Song 1st Place, juniors 2nd Place, seniors 3rd Place, sophomores Tall Tale: 1st Pl ace, sophomores 2nd Place, seniors 3rd Place, freshmen Hog Calling 1st Place, juniors 2nd Place, seniors 3rd Place, sophomores Parade: 1st Place, seniors 2nd Place, juniors 3rd Place, freshmen Cornhuskin ' 1 st Place, seniors 2nd Place, juniors 3rd Place, freshmen 1 k d Student Life 15 There ' s Loretta Lynn!

The Elections Board got everyone excited for the upcoming elections. The Meredith elections board worked hard to make this year ' s elections involve more students and be more fun and they succeeded. Sharon Knight, co-chair of the elections board, said their work had paid off because students were more enthusiastic about running and voting in the elections. The theme for the freshman elections was Get Carried Away, but their feeling seemed to be present in all the elections. There was a greater number of students running than in the past. This provided good competition and resulted in more offices being filled. The statistics from the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd slates were as follows: 1st Slate 52% Total Students Voted Runoff 32% Students 2nd Slak 42% Students Runoff 24% Students 3rd Slate Rising Seniors 44% Students Rising Juniors 28% Students Rising Sophomores 52% Students Special Elections 14% Students Congratulations to all the winners!!! Student Life 19 Fun in the Sun On April 20, 1986, the island and ampitheater at Meredith was transformed into The Celebration of the Year! You celebrated the annual Spring Fling and, this year, you had it Mardi Gras style. Bright yellow, purple, green, and orange beads decorated Meredith women and their guests. The warm day perfect for eating yogurt, throwing frisbees, and canoeing. Blankets covered the island as you sat and listened or got up and danced to entertainment provided by Fat Amnion ' s Band and The Fabulous Waller Family. It was a Sunday afternoon of fun in the sun for you and your friends!

' TALES or the JAZZ AGE 22 Student Life WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE THE TAMING OF THE SHREW t Ulllllll I PCKTCCMS Nineteen eighty-five eighty six was a productive year for the Meredith Performs program. A lot of enthusiasm was put into the extensive undertakings of staff and students. The season got off to a magnificient start with The Sound of Music. This familiar musical was one of the more elaborate productions Meredith has ever done, according to John Creah from the drama department. Lots of backstage work and a large cast made this musical a difficult one to produce. Many people helped pull the show together for its smooth success. In keeping with its unofficial tradition of producing an unusual and unique performance every February, the Meredith Performs introduced Tales of the Jazz Age. This theater piece was created at Meredith and made its debut on February 7th. Legands such as Zelda Fitzgerald (Lisa Robie), Gertrude Stein (Dawn Hutchins), and Isadora Duncan (Carrie Schmidt), came alive on the Meredith stage to recreate the atmosphere and emotion of the lost generation. Set in the roaring 20 ' s, this dramatic production was interesting and enjoyable. Following Tales of the Jazz Age, the dramatic angels took on another challenge. This challenge was the production of William Shakespeare ' s Taming of the Shrew with an all female cast. This idea was adapted from the knowledge that Shakespeare ' s plays were usually put on by all male actors. Meredith decided that the play should involve as many students as possible so the single sex cast idea was adopted and was switched in gen H er. Many thought that this kind of show would reflect the Meredith creativity and also reveal the outdated, sexist views the play presents and make many of them amusing to the audience. Meredith Performs has enjoyed a busy and productive year and will surely continue to bring great performances to the public and especially to Meredith students.

In the 1985-86 year Meredith students journeyed to many foreign places. They had fun in the sun in the sands of Bermuda and Morocco. Through the Meredith Abroad program Meredith faces were seen from Hyde Park in London to the green landscapes of Ireland. And the Meredith Chorale sang their way through Germany, Switzerland, Austria, and France. These Meredith women saw foreign cultures, had an unforgettable learning experience, and best of all had a terrific time. s: During a Moroccan dinner this snake charmer charms more than his slithering friend.

Right: The Bath Tub Ring added their talents to the festivities. 26 Student Life The Religious Emphasis Week theme, Celebrate! , was chosen to brighten up the cold month of January and that it did. A kick-off for the celebration was held in the Chapel Common Room on Sunday, January 19. Monday morning, a special chapel worship was led by Reverend David Moore, a local member of the Baptist State Convention in the Youth and Campus Ministry Division. The Bath Tub Ring also shared with the congregation by rejoicing through song. An early prayer breakfast was held on Tuesday at 7:15 a.m. and the leader of the devotion was Dorothy Preston. The morning was also brightened by Crystal Lennin who sang for the group in the President ' s Dining Room. Chapel on Wednesday was made extra special by Mark Masters, a mime, and by David Moore. These two also took part in the evening communion. Thursday, the festivities culminated as Meredith students celebrated with David Meece and his musical talents. Christian rock, in Jones Auditorium, sounded the success of Meredith ' s Religious Emphasis Week celebration. Building for the future, Meredith students observed Black Emphasis Week 1986 starting on February 9. That Sunday afternoon the foundation was laid by the St. Augustine ' s Gospel Choir and Louisburg High School Ensemble singing in the chapel. Sunday night A Soldier ' s Story intrigued movie viewers in Cate Center. Monday ' s construction began early with a ten o ' clock convocation. Students and faculty watched as Saundra Dunson Franks became Harriet Tubman on stage. Through Ms. Franks, Harriet Tubman ' s experiences and thoughts were -e-created for the benefit of the modern audience. Tuesday, visiting high school students contributed to the atmosphere on ;ampus. Dr. Grissom conducted communion in the chapel that night as a : itting end for the day ' s work. Dr. C. Eric Jncoln and the New Horizon ' s Gospel 3hoir built up students ' expectations and ulfilled them in chapel on Wednesday norning. Another building block was the art exhibition by Minnie McMillan. A step show by Omega Psi Phi and Kappa Alpha D si was a fitting peak for the building of 3lack Emphasis Week at Meredith.

The 1985-1986 dances started with the sophomore Masquerade Ball on October 18. With Halloween approaching, Meredith students dressed up in heir costumes early and joined their friends and their lates in the gym for a night of fun and surprises. November soon came and girls returned to the gym, this ime with their families, for a Parents We ekend sock hop. .ater that month, the Holiday Dance provided a good eason for students to get out their sequins and high heels ind move to the music of Kruze. February came and angels gathered with their friends for the Valentines Dance nd Dating Game. A Best Lips at Meredith contest was tlso held at the Valentine ' s Dance. Many Meredith lips i ere judged from lipstick kisses on paper, but the prize iras eventually awarded to Nan Henry. The traditional Spring Dances were held in April. The ' eshmen sophomore semiformal and the junior senior srmal were both occasions for Meredith angels to kick up leir heels before summer. Looking back at this year, it ' s asy to see that Meredith women don ' t like to dance — hey LOVE it!! Bottom Left: The Thomas ' s are steppin ' out at the Parents Weekend Dance.

These guests were not only distinguished in their own field of expertise but also because they brought their talents to share with Meredith students. C. Shaw Smith, from the National Association for Campus Activities, inspired student leaders at the beginning of the fall semester with his enthusiasm and charm. Carl Rosen and Tom Deluca entertained us with their talents as well. Dr. Thomas Grissom, the pastor of Salem United Methodist Church in New York, visited campus for Black Emphasis Week as did Sandra Franks, who brought us a realistic view of Harriet Tubman in a dramatic re-creation of her. Mr. John Crystal came to campus to speak on Approaching the Job Market for Founders Day Convocation. In October, we were pleased to see Molly Marshall-Green in Wednesday worship. Dr. M. Elizabeth Tidball also visited and spoke at the convocation on October 21st. Singing incredible harmony, the Duke Pitchforks serenaded us in November. David Meece and David Moore brought their energy to campus and succeeded in spreading it to the students. The Dorm Council provided visitors from nearby fraternities for a demonstration on automobile mechanics. The year was topped off with the musical guests Speidel, Goodrich, and Lille, entertaining us at a courtyard picnic. The Very Important Visitors in 1985-86 made this year special and exciting for all Meredith women! 30 Student Life This angel gets a special serenade from a darling Duke devil Student Life 31 sf Playday Intramural Awards Day i MRA presents BLUE HAWAII MRA sponsored Play Day and Intramural Awards Day on April 23rd. The theme was Blue Hawaii and there was a lot of people turning blue in the non-hawaiian weather. Despite the unusally chilly air, students turned out in large numbers for the fun, food, and festivities. At 3:30 the games began. These included a water-balloon toss, a three-legged race, and a bat relay. Frisbees, rollerskates, hula hoops, oversized golf clubs, and a mound of sand also added to the fun in the courtyard. At 4:30 women lined up for hot dogs and hamburgers. Later the Intramural Committee presented awards to dedicated women who organized and participated regularly in intramural sports. The four main awards were the most participating dorm (Barefoot), the hall champions (4th Barefoot), the most participating individual (Carmel Swanson), and Intramural Representative of the year (Stephen Gay). A special award was also presented to Allen Jenkins for her special dedication as director of intramurals for two years. 32 Student Life i rVJst AS . ...1 %T Student Life 33 STUNT 1986 STUNT THEMES: Seniors: Senior Shuffle Juniors: Trial of the Century Sophomores: Take the Plunge Freshman: As the Page Turns 34 Student Life Student Life 35 TIME TO Having adequate time and a quiet atmosphere for studying is a necessity for Meredith women aspiring for success. The time needed to learn is found in different ways and the environment for thinking is found in different places. Many students go to Carl Campbell Library to prepare for tests, work on homework, or do research. Others like working outside on sunny days, when a book and a bench are all that is necessary for learning. Some students prefer to study in their dorms, in classrooms, or in Cate Center. Some even venture over to the library at N.C. State for a change in surroundings. Whether studying alone or with friends, a Meredith student always benefits from her learning time. 36 Student Life LEARN Student Life 37 I ON YOUR TIME 38 Student Life Believe it or not, between classes, homework, and school events Meredith women find time for themselves! After classes students take time out to check their mail boxs and sneak a candy bar at Cate Center. Many students use their time to get in shape — they utilize the Weatherspoon Gym, walk or jog around the Meredith Circle, or go cy ;ling around Raleigh. Dates play a part in freetime — rarely do you only see females on this women ' s campus. Meredith women also spend spare time in the dorm, it ' s a great place to catch the soaps, eat some pizza, take a nap with your teddy and give a friend a perm! On your time YOU choose what you want to do! Student Life 39 VlK ' ' ° - Go oo Mmm . . . Mmm . . . Good! The aroma of pizza drifts down the hall accompanied by voices asking, Who ordered the pizza? I want a piece! Pizza is a popular food with Meredith girls, whether it comes from Domino ' s, PTA, or campus ' service, ITZA Pizza. Some students order it for fun and some order it as a substitute for cafeteria food. The cafeteria serves well- balanced meals all year to faculty, students, and guests. It also provides several special meals during the year. These in- clude Thanksgiving dinner, Christmas dinner, and picnics. Le Greenhouse is another ;jood place to eat on campus. A student can go to this spot in Date Center for a meal with her riends or just a snack between ;lasses. The trench fries and sandwiches are popular foods Dn the Le Greenhouse menu. Many clubs and organizations sell food on campus to raise noney. Ice cream picnics are neld in the fall and big sisters reat their little sisters to dollar sundaes. Some groups sell Vl M ' s, doughnuts, and Dopcorn to make money. Students definitely have a variety of foods to choose from. • Student Life 41 own style «K On a typical day on Meredith ' s campus, sweats, camouflage pants, t-shirts, and shorts seem to be the trend. But when Meredith Angels wanted to dress up, they knew the latest and most stylish clothes to wear. They were seen in anything from pasley blouses to silk blouses, Guess jeans to floral jeans, long skirts to mini skirts, and bulky sweaters to Forenza sweaters. And all of these clothes were popular items with Meredith women. In the fashion of the 80 ' s, ANYTHING GOES! Whatever the style, Meredith women completed their outfits with lots of accessories. With a pin on her collar; a gold chain; long pearls tied in a knot; bright, dangling earrings; a wide belt; lots of bracelets; and a swatch, an angel had it made. She was ready for anything. The 1 985-86 school year was one to wear what you wanted to wear and even to be your own fashion consultant. Nothing anyone put together was wrong. Meredith angels went into their closets in rags (sweats) and came out in riches — no matter what style they chose! Top left: Lori Cogsdale and Carole Goodwin show that seniors have a style of their own. Top right: A jumper and sweatshirt were creatively put together by Antress Johnson.

Students enjoy Deing with their friends, with their boyfriends and with jther people on and off campus. Students interact with faculty members and office staff members. Vleredith is different from most colleges and jniversities in that it is just the right size to enable hese relationships to form between students and itaff. The atmosphere at Meredith also allows the tudents to build strong friendships. Interaction jetween people occurs everywhere but at Meredith hat interaction has a special, personal feeling. WAfJl Student Life 45 yd]©onft g 3 Many students at Meredith have jobs. Some work in Raleigh to earn extra money for spending or for their education. Some also work for experience in their field of interest. Many students also work on campus for the same reasons. You see student workers in the library, in the infirmary, in the cafeteria, in academic offices, and in the supply store. These are just a few of the places where students can earn extra money. On campus jobs are in abundance and easy to get to from the dorms. They usually have no requirements for experience and many students gain experience from their jobs. Students learn a lot and gain good references for their resumes along with the other benefits they receive from having a job on campus.

Meredith College as most of its students know is not an isolated school. Meredith women love to check out the town. During the day students run errands like going to the bank, getting gas for their car and going to Winn Dixie or Kerr Drug. Afternoon is a great time to go to Crabtree Mall. Meredith women love to shop and. check out the eating establishments. When the sun goes down the Angels really come out. Hot ' Lanta, Mitches, Trips and NC State are all favorite hangouts. Steves Ice Cream and TCBY Yogert also catch some girls at- tention. It is evident that even though these women call MC home, they love to go out on the town! The Pavilion at Crabtree Mall is a great place for a casual date. TCBY is a Meredith favorite! Kerr Drugs Store is very convenient for Meredith students What ' s Your Sign? Signs are present all over campus and all over Raleigh. These signs mean different things to different people, depending on the things the messages call to mind. The McDonald ' s sign may mean just fast food to some. But, to students, it means a unique place, styled like the eateries of the 1950 ' s, that offers juke box tunes and old movies along with their hamburgers and french fries. 50 Student Life Hof (antft Itfiaflfttst Signs on t-shirts may not be important unless they reflect a big game in 1986 where the Wolfpack rose above the Tar Heels in basketball. The parking sign probably means more to freshmen and sophomores than to juniors and seniors since it is reminiscent of some attitudes toward underclassmen parking on campus. The Fraternity Court sign is a familiar favorite to many girls who are either little sisters at the frats or who just go there for fun. The cinema sign is one that many Meredith students associate with the year ' s best movies, including Out of Africa and The Color Purple. Hot Lanta is a new sign put up this year. Since the club ' s creation, it has climbed high on many students ' lists. Women Only not only stands for the dormitory policy at Meredith, but also for the graduate school issue faced this year. WOMEN ONLY Student Life 51 Salute to STUDENTS 52 Student Life This year Meredith College sponsored two Awards Days — one for academics and one for student leaders. Both of these programs were a huge success. Meredith students were recognized for their outstanding achievements as friends and family proudly watched. We are all very thankful for these young ladies contributions to our college. CONGRATULATIONS!! Student Life 53 1985-86 NEWS REVIEW Men at Meredith??? On Friday February 28, 1 986 a group of Meredith students, faculty, and alumnae held a demonstration to show how they felt about admitting men into the graduate program. The Board delayed the vote on the issue to gather more information. This was a very emotionaly issue. Some felt a very important tradition would be broken and the perception of the college would change if men were admitted. Others believed the graduate program itself was more important stating that having men was better than having no graduate program. An SGA forum was held to present both sides. Students heard from faculty, alumnae, graduate students, and under- graduate students who held opposing positions. When the 1986 Oak Leaves went to press this issue was not resolved. Transformer Blows Brewer and Faircloth dorms were evacuated on September 8, 1 985 after a transformer blew-up causing a power failure. Because of the power outage no fire alarms went off. The fire was in- side the transformer so there were no flames or smoke, but there was the odor of smoke. Many students were concerned that had there been a fire they would have been trapped since no alarms sounded. Two girls who were riding the elevator at the time felt the elevator drop and were caught between floors. Firemen helped the two out. Both were scared but not in- jured. Angel to the Rescue On February 3, 1986 Meredith girls had some unexpected entertainment. Fraternity pranksters tied one of their brothers to the courtyard fountain. One Meredith student was nice enough to volunteer a towel and a security guard set the bewildered cap- tive free. Space Shuttle Disaster A few minutes after take off on January 28, 1986 the space shuttle Challenger blew up. Seven astronauts, including the first teacher in space were killed. The flags at Meredith and all over the United States flew at half-staff. Meredith students also held a candle-lit midnight service for the victims. Strange Visitor A 200 lb. black bear paid a visit to the Meredith campus this year. Security spotted the bear by the stables. The bear was later captured in Pullen Park. No one was quite sure where the visitor came from. 54 Student Life Dr. Rose Retires After 46 years at Meredith College Dr. iorma Rose retired. She has become a adition, not only in the English Depart- ient but all over the campus. There are ;w who do not know about the high tandards that she upholds. Meredith ollege will miss Dr. Rose ' s teaching bilities and vital personality. A New Look at Women The Distinguished Faculty Speaker Convocation lecturer this year was Dr. Lois E. Frazier, professor of business and economics and MBA director at Meredith. The title of Dr. Frazier ' s speech was A Women ' s Place. She addressed the Women ' ' in the home, community, the church, and the gov- ernment. The Yellow Boot In the fall semester Meredith College security introduced The Boot. ' ' Formally it is called an Auto-Boot Im- mobilizer and is placed on the front, left wheel when the car is parked illegally. A ticket is placed on the car first and if not moved within one to two hours the security place an immobilizer on your vehicle. The procedure was installed in order to cut down on towing. Goodbyes Rhoda Sowers, the Student Activi- ties Director, left for graduate school this year and Francis Thorne retired after many years of service to the college. Thank you both for your spe- cial contributions — we will miss you. New Home The publications found a new and larger home this year. The Oak Leaves, Meredith Herald, and Acorn moved to the basement of the chapel. Luminaries Following the annual Christmas dinner on December 3, 1985, Meredith students lit 5,000 luminaires. This event was a fundraiser sponsored by the SGA for the Raleigh Food Bank. They raised $200 and made the whole campus shine.

With over 600 students enrolled in art classes, sixty-two art majors, the largest exhibition ever, and thirteen students ' works exhibited in different art shows for the academic year of 1985-86, it was evident that this goal was being reached. During the year a period of change and growth occurred; the department became much more professional in its offerings and provided better opportunities in art. There was also plans made and money raised for a new art building. Among these achievements was the establishment of a new organization and Grant. The Student Art Organization reinstituted the Meredith Art Guild, which was a service club that helped make art more visible. The Grant was from the A.J. Flecher Foundation; it provided scholarships for two incoming Freshman who were talented art students. As time progressed, the art department kept striving for its goal. 58 Academics Groups FACULTY: Bottom Row: Craig Greene, Eleanor Reuer, Leonard White, Nona Short.

Old courses went out and new, revised, and exciting courses moved in. These shifts made this department exceptional and prominent once again. Courses in Marketing and Accounting expanded because of increased interest. With the new wave and fast times, computers replaced typewriters, allowing Meredith to comply with this growing need. This department ' s courses provided a stable basis for many fields. The Business Department at Meredith is progressive and naturally changed with the times.

Academics Groups 65 FACULTY: Mary Johnson, Gwenn Clay, Rebecca Murray. EDUCATION A Strong Foundation The Education Department stressed excellence in teaching and did so by building a firm base for its students. They offered certification in K-4, 4-6, 6-9, and 9-12 levels and specialty area such as art, music, and reading. There were three special events during the Spring Semester. During the month of February, there was a Student-Teacher Banquet and a Hands on Science Activities. On March 24, Teacher Network Day took place. Forty recruiters interviewed Meredith students. This first time event included thirty-two school systems. The Spring Semester also brought along a special course for elementary math teachers in the Wake County School System. It was taught by Dr. Clay once a week. This prominent department strived successfully to make the academic year one of excellence and structure. 66 Academics Groups NCAE: Bottom Row: Sally Dozier, Laura Bynum.

Academics Groups 67 Excellence in English The English Department at Meredith College has always been recognized as a department with high standards of excellence. This year was no exception. From Freshmen English to advanced courses such as Shakespeare and Milton, the professors strove to teach their students to appreciate both grammar and literature. The professors also showed their personal excellence this year — Jean Jackson became Dr. Jean Jackson, Gary Walton was recognized by the college for superior teaching, and Norma Rose ended a spectacular 46 years at Meredith.

NORMA ROSE In class Dr. Norma Rose barely exceeds the height of the podium but her strong resounding voice echos in the halls. One day she is Hamlet; the next Lear or even Puck. While the dramatic personae changes from day to day, Rose remains true to he role as a teacher. Rose ' s vanilla-colored hair, cat eye-glasses and plump figure give her the appearance of a typical, gently grandmother. Yet, most people who know her would agree she is anything but typical or gentle. Rose admits that most of her students think she is hard but few think she is unfair. I could have been more popular by lowering my standards, but I wasn ' t willing to do that. I ' m glad I didn ' t. Rose said she was simply living up to the standards of her English professors at Meredith. The greatest compliment any teacher could receive, according to Rose, is She ' s hard, but I like her. Rose will retire in May after teaching at Meredith 46 years. I didn ' t have a choice on this one, Rose said, referring to her retirement which is mandatory at age 70. In Legend of a Good Woman, a tribute to Rose at the faculty banquet honoring her, Dr. Louise Taylor confesses to overhearing an alumna burst into Rose ' s office, saying, Dr. Rose, I can ' t believe you won ' t be here next year. It won ' t be the same without you. Rose replied, No, it won ' t be the same. It may be better. Rose dedicated her work at Meredith to the pursuit of excellence. My greatest satisfaction is seeing students rise to their greatest potential, Rose said. Yet Rose is not one to spoon feed a student. She made eminently clear what she wanted done and when. And then she got out of your way and let you do it. If it came to her attention that you were not doing what she expected, she let you know in a hurry, Taylor wrote. When Rose first entered Meredith she had not thought of being a teacher, but instead entertained thoughts of going into journalism. She worked on the Twig Staff three years and edited the Oak Leaves her senior year, but found the calling in teaching. The Meredith community will mourn the loss of Dr. Norma Rose, but will continue to strive to meet her challenge of excellence, for in the words of Rose quoting Robert Browning, A man ' s reach should exceed his grasp or what is the heaven for.

The four languages offered were French, German, Latin, and Spanish. One of the activities arranged was a film series with the Spanish corridor. It included ten different films to which students and friends were cordially invited. There was also a program in France under the direction of Dr. Pitts, a member of the faculty. The week of March 1 6 through the 21 held many occasions for students to get involved because it was Foreign Language Week. Two professors of the department, Dr. Comeaux and Dr. Winz, produced a French play during the Spring Semester. It was evident that this department strove to provide more than just a classroom lecture for its students ' educations. 70 Academics Groups FACULTY: Bottom Row: Ann Kuntz, Burgande Winz, Nona Short.

Making History Through Community Involvement The department of History and Political Science made the academic year an utstanding one by adding community involvement. It aided in setting up the Episcopal rchives for the North Carolina Episcopal Diocese headquarters and in the planning of he Celebration of the Federal Constitution in 1987. The department also brought Mr. Dexheimer of the West German Government to the campus to speak to the students, rhere were several interns who worked at the Mordecai Society in Raleigh doing esearch and writing in the history of Mordecai Square, and a few others who worked in he North Carolina Supreme Court Library and City Government offices. An exchange rogram with NCSU in the area of politics was developed by the department. A Politics )rofessor from NCSU taught at Meredith and Dr. Clyde Frazier taught at State. The department also taught Soviet classes to the Raleigh Friendship Force. , There were straight history and interdisciplinary majors offered to the students. All xipils were encouraged to prepare for the job world by taking related courses such as )usiness, economics and computer science. This department was very effective in providing the community and the students with special services and a great education.

Among the forty courses offered were ear training, theory appreciation and literature: There were many specialized classes such as Baroque and 20th Century Music. Among these courses there still remained the ones that produced lovely sounds, for instance — handbell choir, chorus, chorale, keyboard and much more. During the year the department was a buzz of activity as one event after another took place. There was the Sound of Music, a program with the Raleigh Orchestra, weekly Chapel services, and a series of organ recitals. On special occasions such as Parent ' s Weekend and Christmas, the handbell choir, chorus, and chorale performed. Chorale is the top performing group at Meredith. This year they traveled to South Carolina and Florida over Spring Break to share their music. During the course of the year, one-hundred recitals were performed by students. There were several other performances by faculty and guests. The music department did more than just provide music for our ears; they also succeeded in entertaining several communities. 78 Academics Groups CULTY: Bottom Row: David Lynch, Alice Daughtery, Alice Goode, James Clyborn, Phyllis Garris.

What a year Meredith College had in the Performing Arts. As usual top-notch productions and activities resulted because of hard and dedicated work. Not only the faculty, but also the students worked hard to make this one of Meredith ' s most memorable years. The fall production was The Sound of Music. This was a reprise of Meredith Colleges first performance. Every year Meredith puts on an original production. The Tales of the Jazz Age was the original one this year. The roaring twenties was given a new twist in this production. The spring brought Shakespeare as never before. A cast of all women dominated the stage in the manly play Taming of the Shrew. This gave the school year an ending which could be compared to none before. The Dance Theatre, led by faculty member Alyson Colwell, also gave a spectacular performance. Speech was an important part of the over all program this year. New faculty member Margaret Douglas helped the speech classes tremendously. Once again the performers and actresses of Meredith Colleqe showed what they can do, and once again it was SPECTACULAR! o n FACULTY: Paul Gabriel, John Creagh, Alyson Colwell, Margaret Douglass. 80 Academics Groups pl - 4f % 3 i ' tl ; a 3L% , _ - jLmJtU Academics Groups 81 82 Academics Groups FACULTY: Bottom Row: Jay Massey, Cynthia Bross, Carol Brown, Marylan Maynard, Alyson Colwell Row 2 Marie Chamblee, Chris Pritchard, Helena Allen, Luke Huggins.

The department once again co-hosted the Annual Carolinas Psychology Conference, the largest undergraduate conference in the corntry. Dr. Huber, Meredith co-chairs Tara Boyette and Kelley Tilley, and many committee members worked hard to make this a success. The Psychology Club, with the help of their advisor Dr. Aubrecht, sold State of the Mind T-shirts. The experimental psychology class, also under the direction of Dr. Aubrecht, completed a study on mental rehersal. After polling Meredith students and faculty and students from other colleges, the department held a winter retreat to discuss its role in graduate education. This decision is still in process. Dr. Marie Mason retired after many years of dedicated teaching and Dr. Rosemary Hornak was welcomed back from sabbatical leave. The Psychology Department was successful in its endeavors this year because of the hard work and cooperation between its students and faculty members. FACULTY: Rosemary Hornak, Marie Mason, Jack Huber, Naomi Wagner, Lyn Aubrecht. Academics Groups 85 A Basic Element Religion and Philosophy are two of the most basic elements at Meredith College. This year the department that teaches religion and philosophy had an outstanding program to offer the Meredith women. The department was lucky enough to have Kenan Scholar, Dr. Hugh Anderson as a professor for the first semester. This was his first visit to the United States since retiring. For the spring semester, Rabbi Martin Berfield taught a course in Judaism. As well as these special people, several speakers lectured throughout the year. Each year the Religion department has presented the McLean award to a student for continious church-related studies at a higher level. For the first time, two scholarships were awarded. They went to Susan Goins and Kelley Milstead. The faculty, as individuals, experienced a good year, also. Dr. Crook had a set of Sunday School lessons used by the Sunday School Board of the Southern Baptist Convention. Dr. Starkey had an article used as the lead article in the International Review of Mission. Meredith College has been very proud of these faculty members. Religion and Philosophy have always been basic elements in the curriculum of Meredith College students. The women of Meredith, this year, obtained a well-rounded underst anding of this basic element that affects us all. FREEMAN RELIGION CLUB: Bottom Row: Kelley Milstead.

The six faculty members and two majors provided the Meredith Student many educational opportunities. This academic year held events to further the department. Dr. C. Tucker conducted a research on Meredith re-entry students and Dr. R. Zingraff went on sabbatical during the Spring Semester. Also in the spring, Dr. John Reed, a visiting scholar from UNC-CH, visited our campus to teach a weekly lecture class on Sociology of the South. This year the department received a very special gift in honor and memory of Dr. Ellen Winston who was chairman of the department during the 1940 ' s. The donation was used to purchase a video cassette recorder and camera to teach interviewing in Social Work and for classroom instruction. The department made its overall emphasis on providing YOU the student with an outstanding education.

MEREDITH RECREATION ASSOCIATION The Meredith Recreation Association is one of the most active associations here at Meredith. The entire Meredith community is included in MRA, but most of the planning is done by fifteen board members. The MRA board meets weekly to organize and coordinate the fun extracurricular and athletic events that are such a big tradition at Meredith. These activities include Cornhuskin ' with the ' 85 theme Back to the Future, Stunt with the ' 86 theme Stunt-The Party, Play Day with the theme Blue Hawaii, Intramural Awards Day, the Meredith Miler, The Outing Club, and Intramurals including Football, Volleyball, Basketball, Soccer, Swimming, Bowling, Badminton, and Battle of the Angelic Stars. Each one of these events allowed Meredith students to apply their talents, to have fun, and to participate in activities with friends. That is what MRA is all about — making new friends and having fun while promoting school spirit. Thanks to the fifteen MRA board members, the whole student body was able to do that this year in an extra special way! Academics Groups 91 MEREDITH ENTERTAINMENT ASSOCIATION The Meredith Entertainment Association seeks to coordinate stimulating activities for the entire college community. Throughout the school year various types of events are offered to students, faculty, staff and friends of the college. This year has been a great year for MEA. The name change from the College Center Association was accepted very well. The new name better identifies exactly what the association does. Events sponsored by MEA have been very well attended this year and went over much better than we ever could have dreamed. Annual events coordinated by MEA were better than ever. The Christmas Dance with the theme of Holiday Cruise featuring the Kruze was a huge success. Umbrella tables, colorful balloons, confetti and boat scenes decorated the Kerr Scott building and gave a great effect. Many students and their dates enjoyed a fun filled night on the cruise. The movies offered this year in our movie series included — Beverly Hills Cop, Silkwood, Terminator. We offered the lowest admission in town at .99c and popcorn and drinks were always available. The Special Events committe of MEA sponsored several events this year. The committee started off the fall semester with Carl Rosen who performed at the Luau that was held in the cafeteria. He made the Luau a huge success with his music and comedy. Tom Deluca was the next performer sponsored by the Special Events committee. He is a comedian hypnotist who performed in Jones Auditorium and amazed the Meredith Community with his one of a kind act. During Cornhuskin ' MEA brought two acts to the campus. First were the Capital City Cloggers. A group of very talented young children that performed in the dining hall during dinner. Next was a group of good looking guys from Duke, the Duke Pitchforks, who also performed in dining hall during dinner. The Special Events Committee ended the 1985-86 year with a bang. Spediel, Goodrich Lille put on a great show in the court yard as Spring rolled around. They won over the hearts of many Meredith girls with their renditions of many favorite songs. MEA concluded the year with Spring Fling, the theme was Mardi Gras. The bands for the event were the Fabulous Waller Family and the Fat Ammons Band. Several booths circled the island including a dunking booth, face painting, cups frisbees, ice cream, beach towels just to name a few. Canoe rides were available on the lake. Colorful Mardi Gras beads were passed-out to everyone that came onto the island. This fun and festive party truly topped off the long list of spectacular events. Thanks MEA for making this a special year!

GOLF i 120 Sports Sports 121 First Year for Fast-Pitch This was the Angels first year to play fast-pitch softbali. The change from slow-pitch to fast-pitch required a big change defensively (strategy ect.) and offensively in the teams hitting. The entire infield, except Aileen Jenkins, was new. Therefore, it took half the season to learn the new strategy and to work together as a team. The outfield was made up of returning players. They played very well all season. As in the past, the girls major weakness was hitting. When they hit well they played well defensively. The success of the fast-pitch team centered around the effectiveness of the pitcher and catcher. The teams pitchers were Joan Wyatt and Debra Kirkland. Catchers were Carla Quinn, Susan Adkins, and Ann Harper. The Coach hopes to get one or two more pitchers next season so that they have more depth on the pitching staff. The Angel team was comprised of seven Juniors, five Sophomores, and four Freshmen. This year was a year for learning. I expect a more successful season next year, said Coach Cindy Bross. Bottom Left: A Meredith player heads for first base. Below: Carla Quinn prepares to hit.

You know that your class was the best because, You Were There. 1 38 Classes CO LU CO CO o Classes 139 Freshmen Maintaining the tradition from years past, on the first day, Meredith College greeted her new freshmen with an arch of balloons in a rainbow of colors across the main drive. Orientation had begun. Soon, the worried parents and the even more nervous freshmen were welcomed by the glowing faces of their student advisors. After show- ing the unknowing student her new home for the next nine months and answering the first round of countless questions to be asked, the freshmen was left alone to unpack and bid farewell to her parents. After settling in, the new students were allowed to show that they had the stamina to stick it out at the President ' s reception. Dressing up in their tea-length and semi-formals, the freshmen greeted President Weems and his lovely wife. A tour of his elegant home was also incorporated into the occasion. After a few exchanged niceities and a handful of mints, the new students were escorted by bus back to a special banquet in the dining hall where other important Meredith staff waited to greet them. Within the first week, the freshmen feels the excitement about the idea of being a Meredith girl and all that these two words entail. She hesitates whether she will make it or not due to the mass amounts of information, pamphlets, and rules presented to her. The first week, she begins to think that classes will be a relief to all the meetings she has been subjected to. Hall meetings soon becomes associated with the word Monday to the new freshmen. The first hall meeting was more of an icebreaker sort of thing. The fun, however, was quickly followed by the rules as the Resident Assistances informed the new students of the materials in the Meredith Angel ' s Bible, their hand- book. Later, a required test was given which officially made the new freshmen Meredith Angels. During the first semester, freshmen were introduced to various aspects of college life through Freshmen Seminars. These were informal meetings which incorporated many of the programs and activities offered at Meredith. All in all, they tried to prepare the freshmen for the things she would endure her next four years at Meredith College. Nothing, however, could better prepare the freshmen for college life than attending class. Registration was an experience all in itself. Deciding what to take and then trying to get registered into that course was like finding one ' s way through an obstacle course in the dark. Adjusting to college life was no easy task. The fine Meredith hospi- tality, however, made all the hustle and bustle of Orientation worthwhile. Now that their first year had come to a close, it was nice to think how beautiful the arch of balloons would be next year across the main drive and all the wonderful memories experienced during that unforgetable freshmen year at Meredith College.

And that it did! The freshmen class gladly adopted this saying as their theme. The freshmen class of 1 989 had no idea exactly what Cornhuskin ' 1985 had in store for them. The early-morning stampedes and the late-night rolling of the courtyard by the sophomores, however, soon made these new freshmen aware that Cornhuskin ' had begun. Then as the events on the official cornhuskin night got un- derway, they quickly felt at home with their upperclassmen as everyone gave in to the over- whelming excitement. The events started with each class performing their parade depicting their theme. Next a selected group recited the Hog callin ' . This was followed by the tall-tale which only one person dramatized. Surely enough as one thing led to another the cornshuckin ' , apple bobbin, and the theme song events occurred also. The night was a success. Freshmen partici- pation proved to be the advantage on that traditional occasion since the freshmen placed first in the attendance category. Yet, as one led to another, that momentous night ended and the freshmen class was pleased to have placed third over-all. Surely no one will forget the ex- citement and the competition that contributed to making this tradi- tional Meredith occasion one of a kind. Above: Emily Warren.

With the help of class officers and other dedicated student leaders the Sophomores ' enthusiasm was successfully directed into many areas — as student advisors helping the Freshmen through their first year, putting on the Masquerade Ball, raising enough money for the Spring Dance, and making a memorable Class Day for our big sisters. As Sophomores, we were more confident having conquered pre-registration twice already, having completed English III, being more experienced in Cornhuskin, ' and being used to a fire alarm going off at 2 o ' clock in the morning. We have experienced and learned much in our first two years at Meredith, but there is still much of the untamed jungle before us — much to learn and experience. We Sophomores with plenty more wild enthusiasm and excitement eagerly look forward to the walk ahead of us and to adventuring into new parts of the jungle.

Living in Faircloth and Brewer dorms had both its advantage and its disadvantages. We were able to live closer to our big sisters and to the sun-bathing areas, but as well we had a longer walk to classes and to Cate Center. This posed no major change however, and life went on as usual in Faircloth and Brewer with pizza parties, deep discussions, crank calls, and no men! Most of all, living on the other side of the courtyard meant that we were Sophomores! Masquerade Ball Where else could one have gone on the night of Friday, October 18 and seen everything from witches and draculas to green M M ' s and beach bums but to the Masquerade Ball, of course! The Sophomores put hours of hard work into making Meredith ' s Masquerade Ball possible, turning Weatherspoon Gym into an eery ballroom — fleecy spider webs, creepy spiders, long black candles, goblins, ghosts, and a graveyard to make it complete. As day turned to night, and the full moon rose high in the sky, masqueraders dressed in a variety of costumes made their appearances at the ball all ready for a fun and bewitching evening. itaSii Martha Ginn Carolina Gomez Vanessa Goodman Teri Goolsby Adrienne Gore Leigh Ann Gossett Lynn Graham Lisa Grissom Meredith Gruehn Jennifer Guilliams Beverly Gupton Suzanne Gwyn Susan Haines Jodi Hamilton Cecilia Hargett Tracy Harrington Mary Snow Harriss Marti Hatch On The Wild Side As October neared its end and November came into sight there was one thing on the minds of all — Cornhuskin ' ! This year, unlike last year, Sophomores knew exactly what was meant when someone mentioned Cornhuskin, ' and Sophomores were wild with spirit and excitement. For the second straight year Sophomores clinched first place in Tall-Tale supporting Janice Bentley as she, dressed from head to toe as a Chiquita banana, told of her life in the wild jungle. This year ' s Cornhuskin ' was also a time for we Sophomores to become even closer to our big sisters who will be graduating this year. We will certainly miss our big sisters next Cornhuskin, ' and we wish them the very best.

History? English? Business? Math? What classes do I need to take for my major? These were a few of the questions being asked by Sophomores during mid-spring semester as once again a list of classes was passed out to each student, and the time came to pre-register and declare a major. Deciding on a major is an important decision that we as Sophomores must make. It is a decision that will affect the rest of our lives. So, we sought the advice of our faculty advisors and carefully planned our schedules as each of us started down a different path to complete our education. 1 56 Classes Picnics The Sophomore ladies enjoyed several picnics this year, including a big sis — little sis party, a Luau, and Spring Fling.

It is a day in which the Sophomores honor their big sister class that will soon be graduating. The Sophomores were up early on the morning of May 10 to gather the daisies and ivy with which to make 2 long daisy chains. That afternoon the seniors marched through the daisy chains held by the Sophomores as they sang songs to their big sisters. It was a day that Sophomores as well as Seniors will remember for years to come.

They sponsored the successful MC W Lip Sine, set up an information booth at the election convention, and held several fundraisers to sponsor such events as the Junior Senior spring formal. These young ladies, along with their committee members, were the backbone of the junior class. They were the ones who made things happen and the ones who made the year successful. Thanks from the class of 1987.

Always ready to help, class members lit lumunaries, provided entertainment for the elections conv ention, and made posters for various events. Each individual added to the community in her own special way, helping out when needed and having the initiative to make a difference.

The class came into the courtyard lead by the class chairpersons all decked out in camouflage. The whole class marched in step up the brick walk lined by freshmen in their bright-red sweatshirts, cheering on their big sisters. All week long the juniors participated in traditional events — singing songs, having waterfights, and enjoying picnics. The long-awaited night arrived and the class of ' 87 put on a spectacular performance. They won the song contest with stunning renditions of favorite American songs. The class finished a close second to the Seniors in the over-all competition. But, Cornhuskin doesn ' t mean competition. It ' s a time when not only one whole class becomes closer but a time when the whole college becomes closer. Cornhuskin ' 87 was a time for fun and friends that the Junior Class will always remember.

Even though it was the last party these seniors attended together the girls were able to hold back their tears and let the good times roll! Classes 181 THE BATHTUB RING The bathtub ring, sponsored by the Philaretian society, entertained the student body at various functions with their hillbilly songs. Here, the seniors, adorned with gradua- tion caps, performed at the senior picnic with their traditional songs which reminded the seniors of their four years of happiness. Thanks to Martha Ann Naylor, Susan Skinner, Susan Coins, Toni Beasley, and Kelly Milstead for a job well done.

This was just one of the touching ideas expressed in senior worship. With a song called Friends, sung by Bridgette Parker and Sheri Davis, seniors remembered cherished moments spent with their special friends. Classes 185 HIDING THE CROOK At Meredith tradition stands strong, and one of the many traditions is the hiding of the crook. The junior class has one week in which to inter- pret the clues and to begin the hunt. Many uniors searched diligently, but with much despair for the junior class the seniors prevailed. Charlotte Kinnard, Dalinda Dunn, Lisa Britt, and Amy Little proudly display the crook.

They squeezed into an old pair of shorts from their freshman year, took paint brushes in, and visual- ly recorded their four years at Meredith. Susan Duck and Connie vanDerdoes enjoyed painting our goodbyes to Mrs. Thorne and Rhoda Sowers. Classes 11 CLASS DAY For many seniors, Class Day marks the end of the memorable four years spend at Meredith. The day begins with the procession of our little sisters carrying the daisy chain and ends with the formation of the class numerals. The class history is read, the doll presented, and songs are sung honoring the Classes of ' 84, ' 86, and ' 88. Lorrie Lippard, Carol Fabry, and Amy Datsun enjoy singing along with their sister class.

Senior Statistics 205 YOU will always cherish the memories from Class Day 1986. The members of the senior class and their Meredith little sisters all wore white dresses to celebrate the day. The sophomores entered first, carrying the traditional daisy chain. Then the Class of 1986 made its way into the amphitheater, lead by their class president Lisa Britt, who carried the crook. The crook being successfully hidden from the junior class in a 3rd Heilman window, was adorned with the classes colors, green and white. The four class historians reminisced about the important events that occured during their years at Meredith College. They covered important national and local events and even touched on humorous occurrences. The class doll was also presented. Dressed in a long straight skirt, long sweater, matching pumps, and pearls, the doll, representing the fashion of the day, was definitely a hit. The day of memories ended with the traditional formation of the class numerals with the daisy chain. The seniors rushed toward the daisies to scoop up one last memory. The day was over and sights were set on the following day, Graduation. . 9. •si I 206 Closing Closing 207 YOU . . . heard Pomp and Circumstance along with the rest of the class of 1986, as you marched into the Meredith Amphiteater. President John E. Weems welcomed family and friends and Louis E. Frazier, a professor of business, gave the scripture and prayer. The Baccalaureate address this year was given by Mrs. James G. Martin, the First Lady of the State of North Carolina. Her address to the graduates was entitled Education for Excellence. The most exciting part of the afternoon was the conferring of the degrees. As each young lady walked across the island in her black robe and cap, shouts of encouragement and resounding applause greeted her from the onlookers. Sandra H. Bledsoe and Lisa M. Britt delivered farewell speeches to the graduates. After the cermonies were completed the graduates rushed to meet friends and relatives. Cameras snapped, mothers made a big fuss, and fathers proudly watched their little girl. It was a day that celebrated each girls years at Meredith College. But, it was also a day for celebrating each young ladies future. Everyone will miss the Class of ' 86. But don ' t worry girls — we ' ll never forget you.

Fortunately, most of those who joined were willing to put in time and effort. There were those who were not so willing, but I feel that they are the ones who have lost. The dedicated members of the 1986 staff will be able to look at this book with pride. I truly hope that the whole Meredith community appreciates the work of the students who designed layouts and wrote articles and captions, and the students who took the pictures that made this book come to life. The 1 986 Oak Leaves staff has set a new standard for Meredith yearbooks and, with continued dedication, this standard will become a tradition. This book is for YOU and I hope that YOU will enjoy it for many years to come. Sincerely, JxaoLr a.C dJLie. ' tei Oak Leaves Editor P.S. Due to pressing deadlines we were not able to put captions under all the pictures and include the people in those pictures in the index. So please be sure to look at all the pages to find the pictures of you and your friends. Special thanks to special people: I would personally like to thank Carolyn and Cindie for putting up with me and for working so very hard. And I would like to thank my mom, Gloria Yedlicka, for typing thousands of pages, listening to me, and for being a great person. 1985-86 Oak Leaves Staff Editor in Chief: Jeanne A.
