DEDICATION Dr. Charles S. Davis, Associate Professor of Bible in the Division of Religion, has been at Mississippi College since August, 1973. In August, 1959, he married the former Nancy Lee Nielsen; Dr. Davis is the father of one child, Dana Gayle, who is thirteen. Davis, a native Mississippian, attended public school in Greneda, graduating from high school in 1954. He was named High School All American in football that year. While continuing his education at Mississippi College, Davis also continued his sports achievements; he lettered in football, basketball, track, and tennis. In 1957, the year before he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts Degree with Distinction, Davis served as captain of the football team and was selected a Small College All American. In 1980 he became the youngest person inducted into the Mississippi College Sports Hall of Fame. From Mississippi College, Davis went to Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky, and to New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary. He received his Master of Divinity from New Orleans in 1962 and his Doctor of Theology from there in 1971. During the past Dr. Davis has served as pastor at Cuba Baptist Church, Cuba, Alabama, and at First Baptist Church, Crowley, Louisiana. Today he serves as interim pastor wherever he is needed around the state. Dr. Davis, whose nickname Puddin’ was given to him by an aunt shortly after his birth, maintains his interest in sports. j Tennis is his love today. He has been a top-ranked singles player in his age group ; for years; in 1982 he was ranked fifteenth ! in the state. Dr. Davis also plays doubles quite well. In eleven years of following the Choctaws’ football team, he has missed only seven games total. Most of those were due to the distance between an : away game and where he was serving as interim pastor. One other activity Dr. Davis engages in ; is Mississippi College’s annual “College Bowl.” Along with a team of trivia- minded students, he has placed either first place or runner-up every year of the event. Dr. Davis attributes this to wide reading and an uncanny knack for retention of facts.
