Pegasus Volume LXII Washington College Chestertown, Maryland 21620 Something Interesting?? Pegasus I You Decide . . . Although Washington College may be a small, liberal-arts college, it is indeed diverse. Students vary from the eager young freshman from Chantilly, Vir- ginia ready to imbibe Shakesperian sonnets to the senior business major from Annapolis, Maryland studying the stock market. Sports add a vibrant taste to cam- pus life, ranging from crew at 5 A.M. to an exhaustive late afternoon tennis match. For the non-athletic, various clubs and organizations are abundant and new ones continue to develop. One can express creative thoughts through a myriad of literary publications or by developing a campaign for an SGA office. A new student need not worry about fitting in at Washington College — everyone can find an activity suiting his interests. — — .r Hr - • t _ fir w M PP — itu i imwr ,■•■ ' n ' ryiifflf ' ii 1 T Faculty Seniors Clubs 16 54 Student Life 70 Sports 82 Supporters 98 Table of Contents 3 Campus Constants In the 80 ' s, we have all come to ex- pect rapid changes in our daily lives. However, we can always find secu- rity in those events and things that stay constant year after year. Wash- ington College, while undergoing many new transitions in its long history, has been able to keep a large amount of its tradition and heritage. The sports pro- gram has kept up its longstanding pres- tige, having sent its lacrosse team to the National Championships very fre- quently in recent history. Most of the buildings have remained static since the turn of the century. Since 1930, the Elm has provided students with cam- pus news every Friday. And of course, Mr. Procolino still delivers. Something that never changes at any college — the need to relax. A college tradition — friends going to class together. One of the newer buildings at WC — the Hynson Pavillion. 4 Introduction Perhaps the strongest memory in students ' minds as they return, William Smith Hall. Not a Roman gladiator, Linda Anders is one of the goalies on the WC hockey team. Despite appearances, a methods of washing clothes have changed and wringing them out is only necessary when a bathroom floods, as it did in Queen Anne ' s. No, WC is not providing students with ironing boards on wheels — the Queen Anne ' s ironing room has just become an extra storage closet. Dr. and Mrs. Parcell play at the annual Bach ' s Lunch. It seems that every year the New Dorms lot is overcrowded — but somehow students cope. Introduction 5 Friends Reacquainted An important attribute looked for in a friend — the owner- ship of a car. How many moonlit walks has this path hosted over the  years? Not only does the college undergo modifications, people also change, sometimes drastically, sometimes very subtly. Life at college can bring new outlooks on life, and few students leave college with the same attitudes as they had when they arrive. Over summer vacations, new principles can be formed and feelings about oneself and others adapt. Friendships that blos- somed the year before can fade away into obscurity, while people we couldn ' t stand suddenly become close to us. New students arrive every fall, making the entire conglomeration of students ever shifting. Whomever the people are, WC students have never had a problem making strong, lasting relationships, insuring that no one will be left alone on weekend nights. 6 Introduction The effects of overstudying on the average student. A group in Reid Hall offers their toast to the WC student body. Enjoying a change from their usual schedules, students en- joy the music at the Bach ' s Lunch. If the Beach Boys ever make a video.

T i i i  JL3 til m mm I WASHINGTON COOEGI Early Starts, Late Nights The few. The proud. The rowers. Yes, getting up at 5:30 each morning and working oneself mercilessly only appeals to a select few brave Washington College students. Nevertheless, to those who brave awful weather and half-asleep crewmates ev- ery day, it is a very fulfilling exper- ience. The thrill of giving it that final push at the end of a hard race to make an incredible comeback gives a feeling of accomplishment that, according to those who row, belongs with the most rewarding experiences of one ' s college Enjoying the sights of the early morning, the novice wom- en ' s crew gets ready for a practice. Enjoying a chance of scenery, upperclassmen take a break for a picture during a visit to the Charles River in Massachu- setts. Doing his Rick Dempsy imitation, Brian Parson relaxes dur- ing the Theta Softball tournament. Jeff Cessna, practicing for his big league debut I can ' t see well this early — Is that a camera? This needs no explanation. H illv .:• ■ :■■■ B vJ- Wis • The Hill Dorms have seen many classes come and go. Now that the game is over the teams show their respect for one another. A sight all too rarely seen to those not in the crew program — the boating pavillion at dawn. 10 Introduction One adjustment that we all must make — walking to class early in the morning. I ' ll clean up when I have time. As the day ends, Bill Smith Hall becomes less important for students, who are often glad to be able to view it from a distance. Fall also marks a return to dorm life after a summer of relative luxury at home. Residents must get used to shar- ing living areas with others. The mov- ing-in stage causes a temporary disor- ganization of rooms, especially for those who tried to bring more than will fit into the room. However, these adjustments do oc- cur with time and by the time the tress lose their leaves, we have all again got- ten used to life at WC. Soon after we return to classes, the leaves change color and the weather turns cooler. After a long summer of relative relaxation, students must end their vacation habits and study. Many students, having enjoyed a carefree, sporting summer, participate in athletics to keep that spirit going. Field Hockey, soccer crew, and fall la- crosse are among the favorites. The ln- termural sports, both those organized by the school and less formal events, such as the Sig volleyball and the Theta softball tournaments. Introduction II As our daily schedules get more hec- tic as the semester goes on, we simply think of the buildings we pass by and enter each day as merely places to have classes, labs and other sundry meetings, forgetting about the fact that Washington College has some very beautiful scenery to offer. Unfor- tunately, most of the time we hardly give the immediate world around us so much as a second glance. Although photographs do not capture the entire feeling of this natural beauty, they re- mind us that sometimes stop and look at the beautiful campus. 12 Introduction Introduction 13 Choosing To Excel September 9, 1987 marked the official beginning of the 1987- 88 academic year, with the 205th Fall Convocation at Washington College. Probably the most notable speaker this year was Maryland Senator Paul S. Sarbanes, who delivered the keynote address discussing the 200th anniversary of our Constitution. In addition to Sarbanes ' address, President Douglass Cater gave a State of the College address, explaining the many changes going on at WC. Several awards and citations were presented that day, including two honorary degrees to Dr. Atlee C. Kepler ' 42 and Nathaniel Wyeth. Washington College FALL CONVOCATION As is evident on this spread, the focus of Fall Convocation is speech- es. Some students may feel that these are long and unnecessary. On the other hand it should be noted that this formal ceremony is part of a long established tradition. This year, the students of Washington College were enlightened by words of wisdom from: Senator Paul Sarbanes, Louis Goldstein, Atlee Kepler, President Douglass Cater, Dean Elizabeth Baer, and SGA Presi- dent Richard MacKnight. Awards announced at Fall Convocation: Fox Freshman Scholarship Medal: Michael S. McGinniss Alumni Medal: Andy Webb Visitors and Governors Medal: Mona G. Brinkley Visitors and Governors Scholarship: Andy Webb S Mona Brinkley Interfraternity Loving Cups: Phi Kappa Sigma Alpha Omega Pi Fall Convocation 15 f I ash ington College has f had a long tradition of boasting an excellent faculty. Although we are a small college, and may not be able to offer them the big salaries of the larger schools, professors are quite willing to come to this col- lege and remain here. The major- ity of professors leave only be- cause they are ready to retire from teaching, not to go on to an- other college. Many of them like the small college atmosphere, where they can actually get to know all of their students. Because of these people, Wash- ington College students are able to get a high quality education. Courses can be taken from noted authorities in their fields, many of whom have been published in journals and books. The small size also allows for a more one-on- one relationship, making it easier for students to speak to professors about courses enabling them to understand subjects of more complexity.

One of the more in- teresting things that can be seen is the variety of places that faculty members are found. Here, the Pegasus was able to catch up with some faculty members out- side of the classroom. Faculty 31 our years ago, the Class of 198S arrived on campus I somewhat excited, some what scared, and full of dreams ol what they wanted college to be Now, after enduring exams, pa pers, dining hall food, parties, anc dorm life, the students may have changed, and some of theii dreams of what college is ma have been modified. Majors ma have changed, and the graduate: may be planning on entering a ca reer that they never could have imagined as freshmen. Although the seniors receivei much from the school, they also gave as well. Seniors contributed to the college throughout their sports teams, in Student Govern- ment, on the stage, and in class. The college community benefited in some way from the class mem- bers ' individual efforts over the four years. So now the class is ready to leave us and enter the real world , and feel just as excited, scared , and full of dreams as they were four years ago.

Seniors 51 Puttin ' On The Ritz 52 Puttin ' On Puttin ' On The Ritz 53 n an attempt to keep from go- ing crazy from study over- load, many WC students find refuge in participating in clubs. The clubs are as varied as WC students themselves, ranging from the Young Republicans to the Young Democrats and from the debate club to Amnesty Inter- national. Most clubs are funded by the SGA, which is willing to help students with a shared inter- est get their organizations start- ed. Clubs are founded for many reasons, whether it be for the en- joyment of those involved, aca- demic reasons, such as the Writ- er ' s Union, or as a service to the college community, such as the publications and music groups. Clubs not only allow students an opportunity to relax, but also often allow them to contribute to campus life. It appears the money used to support them is well spent. Sounds From The Past The Early Music Instrumental Consort (Left to Right): Amzie Parcell (director), Diana Holden, Jannette Hartley, Tim Rohs, and Mary DeMoss Trying to recapture the sound of the music of the past, the Instrumental Early Music Consort performs Rennaissance music on period instruments such as recorders, crumhorns and the cornamusse. Not only do they perform formal concerts through the year, they also are part of the Annual Renaissance Dinner. Dressed in period costumes, they play dances, carols, and other instrumental pieces of the time. The Early Music instrumental Consort allows students to hear (and perform) music not often heard in today ' s world which plays a significant part in the history of music. 56 Early Music Jazzing It Up The Washington College Jazz Band: Andrew Chandler, Mary Jo Decrecenzo, Leah Peterson, Debbie Smethurst, Timothy Anderson, Tim Rohs, Charles Bishop, Keith Wharton, Jonathon Sarris, Robert Fleetwod, Clifton Cotton, Janet Szabo, Kristin Johnson, Christopher Hanson, Ford Schumann, Jeff Cessna, William Faust, Amzie D. Parcel! (director), and Kate Bennett In contrast to the Early Music counterparts, the Washington college Jazz Band performs pieces of the Modern Era. Founded in 1985, Jazz Band has grown steadily and has been able to play an increasing variety of music. Selections presented at their fall concert ranged from Gershwin ' s Someone to Watch Over Me to a funk-rock piece entitled Afterburner . The campus support for the band has also grown, allowing the band to progress from small concerts in the Coffeehouse to well-attended concerts in Tawes Theatre. The Jazz Band hopes to continue to grow and improve in the future. Jazz Band 57 Songs Of Old The Early Music Vocal Consort (not in order of appearance) Kate Bennett, Christopher Brower, Andrew Caporoso, Garry Clarke (Director), Melissa Clarke, Donald Diefendorf , Marti Dyer, David Harter, Deanna Houle. Christopher Martin, Denise LaRue, Kathleen Mc Guigan, Katherine Prendergast, Micheal Sell, Carl Schaller III, Amy Tidball, Melanie Wade, John White Much like their Instrumental counterparts, the Vocal Early Music consort performs music of the Renais- sance. This group concentrates on the vocal music of the time. The highlight of their performing year is the Renaissance Dinner, where they arrive as various Lords and ladies. They are the guests of Sir Phillip of Nottingham. They also give formal performances, where they sing madrigals and other as they try to recapture the vocal sounds of days past. 58 Early Music Dancing Along The Washington College Dance Club (Not in order of appearance): Neal Boulton, Andrew Caporoso, Adrienne De Angelo, Bob Harlambakis, Peter Johnson, Emily Lott, Richard MacKnight Jr., Karen Smith (Director), Wendy Snow, and Dianna Zaring Not all performers at Washington College are singers or instrumentalists. The Dance Club is available to students wishing to perform the art of the dance. The dance club gives regular dance concerts of more modern dances and also performs older dances at the Renaissance Dinner. Dance Club 59 The year at Washington College As usual, the year at Washington College provided many differ- ent and amusing events. One of the biggest concerns was that there was not enough parking for the in- creased number of students who drive. This problem mostly manifested itself in the increased number of parking tickets handed out by security. Also, the master Campus landscap- ing plan drew heavy criticism from both students and faculty. The pro- posed plan, which would increase the physical beauty of Washington College, involved the removal of a number of trees. Once the students found out about this, a number of yellow ribbons were tied around trees while everyone was home for Thanksgiving Break. Pro- tests eventually led to a public hearing of the plan in early December. On the good side, Washington Col- lege was able to proceed with con- struction of the Decker Science Ce n- ter. Throughout the semester, the pro- gress of the construction was evident. Also, plans were finalized for the con- struction of the brand New Student Center. The World Around Us , . Looking back on 1987-88 Outside of Washington College, the world of 1987 went by. Few events affect the students at Washington College, but when these events spark discussion between the students, one knows that they are important events. This year, the topics of discussion covered a wide variety of issues. All of the business majors were shocked when the Stock Market lost 500 points in the middle of October. The drop sparked a number of discussions inside of the classroom in regards to the American banking system and the economy as a whole. This drop also played havoc on the players in the Stock Market Game, sponsored by Dr. Malone and the economics department. Political Science majors had a semester full of activity to watch and monitor. The Iran-Contra scandal, which peeked during the summer with the testimony of Lt. Col. Oliver North, dominated many discussions on the role of the American President as defined by the Constitution. Constitution- al questions were asked over the Supreme Court appointment of Robert H. Bork. The questions here dealt with the role that the Senate can take in regards to Executive appointments to the Judiciary. Also, it was fascinating to watch the downfall and comeback of Democratic Presidential Candidate, Gary Hart. Other events that caught the attention of Washington College students include, the Summitt between Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev, the finding of the Titanic and the controversy that ensued when artifacts were brought up from the watery grave. Events surrounding Jessica Hann, Fawn Hall, and Donna Rice captured the interests of students. All in all, 1987 will be looked back upon as being a year full of surprises. (Who would say in April that the Minnesota Twins would win the World Series?) Life at Washington College can be peaceful, but like 1987, there is always a surprise awaiting around the corner. Pegasus Leftovers By the end of the year, the Washington College yearbook and its archieves are overflowing with pictures. And, every year, the Pega- sus selects the best of the leftovers for this two-page spread. .

Once this snow does fall, the college campus takes on a very different appearance. Covering the ground with the white snow hides the dirt and grime underneath. Since the campus looks so nice under a blanket of white snow, we collect- ed pictures for this spread from some of the more substantial snowfalls in recent memory. ,J 64 We Need a Little Snow Foxwell Daze Set apart from all the other buildings on campus, Foxwell Hall houses the psychology de- partment. Because of the nature of the psychology program, majors are often seen there running rat experi- ments, talking to professors, social- izing or escaping to quiet in the evenings. The Department often at- tracts attention from beyond the campus, as shown by the appear- ance of faculty research in the American Psychological associ- ations Monitor and Psychology To- day and Dr. Marcia Pelchat ' s ap- pearance on the Canadian CTV pro- gram Lifetime . Psychology is one of the most popular majors at the college and majors often form friendships that extend beyond Fox- well Hall. The Department continues to improve and this year published a newsletter. The Department will move to Dunning once renovations on the building are complete, where it hopes to continue to grow and im- prove. A sign that will live forever in the minds of psych majors.

Some would say the water tower. Some would say the Elm. Some might even say the Hill Dorms. But, by far the most popular response would be the cupola of Bill Smith, which we have collected a variety of pictures, from different angles, to represent the most memorable landmark of Washington College.

Concerts are performed late Sunday afternoons in Norman James Theater. Debates are held in Hynson Lounge and appeal to a sizeable portion of the WC com- munity. Clubs hold meetings and plan activities. Drama produc- tions are presented, often with a pre-performance talk to set the mood. Sport teams provide an athletic diversion from the rigors of academics.

A Day 73 Cultural Stimulation One of things that a good lib- eral arts education should provide is a chance to meet and talk with people who have add- ed to the culture of the United States. Washington College does of- fer one that opportunity. This year the noted author William Styron spent a week on campus talking with writers, visiting classes, and speak- ing to the public. Also featured this year was Maryland Senator Paul S. Sarbanes who served on the famous Joint Committee looking into the lran-Contra Affair. He spoke on a va- riety of issues, but focused mainly on the 200th anniversary of the Con- stitution. A few years ago, Governor William Donald Schaeffer came to the College and spoke. The College also sponsors the Concert Series, which brings a variety of profes- sional artists to Chestertown. These concerts are always well-received by the student body. 74 Culture Culture 75 Hangin ' Out Few things are needed on a campus of this size, but one of the most important is time to just do nothing — com- monly referred to as free time. At the start of the se- mester, it seems that everyone has plenty of time to just sit around their room and do nothing. People turn to a variety of exercises to relieve the stress of a college education. 76 Relaxation at Washington College Students In Action The Meaning Of College What does it all boil down to? The reason we are at Washington College is to collect an education. In order to reach the goal of a diploma at graduation, every stu- dent must commit time outside of the classroom to study the mate- rial. When exam time draws near, the number of little study groups that appear on campus is stagger- ing. It seems that everyone looks for someone else to share the ma- terial that they need to study and succeed. x£ iT - • 1 t ' i l r i 1 J7 -L 1 PES: 80 Study Time Study Time 81 favorite pastime of many athletically minded stu- _ dents is, of course, par- ticipation in Washington Col- lege ' s sports programs. Be it la- crosse, field hockey, crew, soccer or any other, sports have always generated much enthusi- asm and support. In addition to building character, stamina, and endurance, sports help students to learn how to make priorities, orient their actions toward a common goal, and make friends with teammates. Even though WC is a compara- tively tiny school, it continually plays (and defeats) much larger universities such as Johns Hop- kins. The continued success of community support. Sporting events have always had excellent turnouts by college fans and this spirit gives everyone the feeling of teamwork. Reaching For Better Heights The Washington College 1987 Soccer team was expected to fair quite well when playoff time rolled around. When the playoffs did start, Washington College made it to the finals of the Maryland State Small College Tournament, where they lost to the Mountaineers of Mt. St. Mary ' s, 3-0. Despite this suc- cess in a post-season tourna- ment, the Washington College team managed through a rough season, compiling a 5-9- 3 record. The leading scorer was Tom Bowman with 6 goals and 5 assists. He was closely followed by Scott Beeler, who scored 6 goals but had only 2 assists. Next year should hold a brighter future for the team. 84 wc Opponent 2 Catholic University 3 Muhlenburg 1 2 1 St. Mary ' s Franklin Marshal 1 1 3 Lebanon Valley 1 Swarthmore 2 2 Salisbury State 2 Western Md. 2 4 Albright 1 1 Ursinus 2 1 Haverford Widener 6 1 2 Gallaudet 5 Johns Hopkins 1 2 Delaware Valley 1 1 Salisbury State 0 Mt.

Washington Col- lege Field Hockey enjoyed its first winning season, capturing a 9-7 record and an llth place NCAA regional Ranking. Eight members of the team were se- lected to play in a Field Hockey Association ' s select team. With a squad with no seniors and seven freshmen, the team surprised everyone with a opening game victory over MAC rival Haverford, 1-0. They then posted their biggest up- set when they defeated Catholic (which had entered the Game ranked number 19 in the country) 2-1. The large amount of dedication, sacri- fice, pride and confidence shown by this young team, un- der Head Coach Diane Guinan, will lead the way for a brighter future.

Finishing with a 14-23 record, the volleyball team met some goals that it had set for itself, while not quite reaching others.

Cars are as diverse as the people who own them. Unfortu- nately, parking at Washington College is minimal, so many must leave their cars out on Gibson Avenue. This inconvenience does, of course, drive stu- dents crazy, but does not stop students from wanting to drive around the small and tiny town of Chestertown. The car also provides a key element of life here, escape. It is for this reason that the students of WC bring their cars and other vehicles to college with them. 96 Cars Cars 97 parents.

Not only does it mark the end of another year at Washington College, it also marks the end of the year- book staff. This year, the staff that worked on Volume 62 of the Pegasus was simply outstanding. When the stress and pressure of deadlines fell on everyone, they all chipped in to assure speedy pro- duction of the book you are now holding. It has been said before, but it is worth repeating: I could not have done it without you. The support given to me this year was outstanding. The long hours, the short tempers, all the troubles that revolve around the yearbook were dealt with in a prompt and efficient manner. I think it shows Special Thanks go to: Doug Martin (Herff Jones Representative) President Douglass Cater Meredith Davies, our advisor Mr. Bob Day (Chairman, Board of Publications) The Elm Staff (especially Michele Baize) And an extra special thanks to Kelly for maintaining my sanity and for supporting me.
