CRUSADER 1987 William Carey College Hattiesburg, Mississippi 39401 Volume 31 Editor Jan Wiggins Sponsor Bekke Ray Carey: Generations of Excellence illiam Carey College has a history of excellence: in 1906, Carey was known as South Mississippi College, a coeducational private institution which thrived until most of it was destroyed by fire in 1910. In 1911, the school reopened as Mississippi Woman ' s College through the graciousness of Mr. W.S.F. Tatum who purchased the land and gave it to the Mississippi Baptist Convention with the conditions that it be used for five years as a Christian school for young women and at least one hundred young women be enrolled the first year. In 1940, the aftermath of the depression era plus the onset of war caused Mississippi Woman ' s College to be shut down and used as housing for army officers from Camp Shelby just south of Hattiesburg. In 1946, Mississippi Woman ' s College opened again and underwent renovations. After more than forty years of admitting only female students, the Mississippi Baptist Convention voted in 1953 to reinstate the college ' s former coeducational status, necessitating a name change for the school. This led the Board of Trustees to name the school William Carey College in honor of the eighteenth century English missionary to India. Besides holding weelily Noondays and various parties throughout the year, the Baptist Student Union also sponsored several activities to raise money for summer missions. 2 Opening Snowpeople became temporary- students due oppoftunity to build c Time out from classes and studying was often spent in unexpected snow in early Apr.l.

Opening 3 ontinuing the tradition of excellence, Carey has excelled in many areas including academics and C sports. From Who ' s Who and Academic All-American honors to NAIA championships, William Carey College has left outstanding marks in many areas. Carey is presently undergoing several renovation projects and relocating several offices in order to provide more ample space and greater accessibility to the religion department and several other places. Lawrence Hall is being renovated to house not only the offices of the religion professors and their classes, but also a chapel, a film room, the office of the Director of Religious Activities, and the Baptist Student Union. The Mississippi Mission — an endowment campaign which will, in the end, give Carey $11.6 million to be used to further the advances made by the college over the past decades, is being used to help finance the various renovations on campus. The endowment fund is also being distributed to several scholarship funds and to the library for further development. Monday morning penained to nursing.

Opening 5 Carrying on a tradition of excellence, Carey continues to grow and expand its horizons. This growth and expansion has taken place not only physically, but also spiritually and numerically. Many firsts have occurred during the past several years. Carey on the Coast saw its first on- campus housing being constructed as well as its first weekly chapel services and the first soccer team in the history of William Carey College. The New Orleans campus saw the institution of a year-round nursing school program in which the students began their nursing courses in the spring semester of their sophomore year. Hattiesburg ' s campus saw the installation of phones in all dorm rooms, the resurrection of light poles all over campus, and the addition of more playground equipment to the Child Development Center ' s playground. Each new semester sees the departures of old friends and the arrivals of new ones. Both short-term and long-term friendships are estab- lished. Old traditions are sometimes replaced by new ones, but still William Carey College contmues its CRUSADE OF EXCEL- LENCE.— Jan Wiggins 6 Opening . A.

Religious Activities Portray Excellence When the first Crusaders thought of excel- lence they probably imagined an outstanding soldier or conquered land. To these first Crusad- ers excellence came in the form of brute force, and the control of others. JMany students view college as simply a time to prepare them for a high paying job or prestige. The Crusaders at Carey are of a different breed for they know as Jesus taught that excellence comes from inside not through vain outward appearances. As the alma mater states, Carey hath taught us love and honor, taught us truth and right, while fitting every new Crusader with thine armor bright. One of the ways in which Carey helps fit each new Crusader with excellence is through the reli- gious activities planned on and off by organiza- tions of the college. Some of the organizations taking leadership m spiritual development were the Baptist Student Union, Evangelicals for Social Action, Fellowhip of Christian Athletes, and the Ministerial Associ- ation. All of these groups proved themselves excellent this year, and set higher goals for such in the future. Most considered their programs and activities a success. There were a tremendous number of programs planned this year centering around the spiritual growth of members through Bible studies, share times, times, worship ser- vices, educational programs, prayer services, stu- dent — led revivals, and fellowships. These groups did not compete with each other but worked together for the cause of Christ. The largest of these was the BSU, but they all played a very important part in the total picture of reli- gious activities on campus. Very descriptive of the religious activities on campus, the BSU ' s emblem pictured arrows pointing in and out simultaneously, a reminder of the importance of both personal growth and outreach. It was in outreach that religious activities found the highest form of excellence. The pro- grams, fellowship, and numbers were important but real success lay in the ministry to others. The numerous fellowships were fun, but they were primarily concerned with relationship building. These groups did not seek influence and popu- larity but service to God, fellow students, and the surrounding communities. BSU exam care packages made the fall semester finals more bearable. Family groups built strong and lasting friendships. FCA meetings and prayers bonded together members to equip better ministry to athletes and campus folks. ESA did not just talk about social problems; members sought Christ — BSU ' ERS PAINTED A map of the world to show God ' s love around the world. MILES TO JACKSON by bicycle ed over S1200 for sun centered answers to the problems in which they could help. Most of the activities were somehow related to missions — campus, community, home, and foreign. Over $3000 was collected for sum- mer missions allowing William Carey to com- mission missionaries to Korea, New York, Washington D.C., and Detroit. The MA and BSU ministered at a nursing home. Students went to Columbia training school to lead juve- nile offenders in worship. Children at the Dean Ash children ' s home were shown much needed love. Juveniles and abused children learned through youth court volunteers of God ' s love despite a bad or unhappy past. Spiritual growth and Christian ministry were seen on the Gulf Coast and New Orleans cam- puses also. Newly formed BSU ' s appeared on both sister campuses as auxiliaries of more ma- ture organizations. Students participated in mis- sion activities, summer missions fund raisers, and Bible studies. Preceded by longstanding tradi- tions of chapel service on Hattiesburg and New Orleans campuses, the coast was not to be left out, and in September opened with a chapel series of its own. Nursing students of all faiths participated in the newly-formed Carey Christian Fellowship, and accented their physical training with spiritual ministering. It is through giving, not receiving that made the Carey Crusaders excellent. — Scott Hummel. 10 Student Life Students Strive for Excellence through Giving instead of Receiving.

Social club activi- ties filled the calendar from August to May and picnics and parties seemed to pop up every month. The fall semester was kicked off with wel- come back parties, orientation sessions, and re- citals.

A BSU lock-in, putt-putt golf night, off-campus movie nights, and the BSU State Convention in Jackson gave students a chance to get off campus for a while. On-campus activities included movie festivals, the Fall Theatre Production, open dorm nights, the Twila Paris concert, the fall talent show, the Halloween Carnival, basketball games, soccer games on the Coast Campus, and various special nights courtesy of the cafeteria. The spring semester brought about more re- citals and more open dorms. Homecoming brought out an abundance of activities. The baseball and tennis seasons gave students activi- ties to fill their afternoons and evenings. The Miss Carey Pageant and the Spring Theatre Pro- duction were two big spring events which filled many hours for participants. Various club activi- ties, elections, and more special dinners closed out the year which culminated in the big event — graduation.— Jan Wiggins Keeping things going at the Phi Beta Lambda spaghetti supper, Carol Swimming was a favorite pastime on the Coast campus.

Student Activities 15 Nurses See Year Through Actively New Orleans SGA Keeps Students Busy Despite Little Free Time Although clinicals, classes, research, and prac- ticums filled the majority of their time, the New Orleans Student Government Association still managed to break academics with creative and innovative entertainments. With a free hour following each Monday as- sembly, the SGA leaders boosted students into the week ahead with parties, events, and enlight- ening programs geared around seasonal and lo- cal activities. Calendar activities throughout both semesters were well-received. The Halloween costume contest, party, and ghoul food were enlivened by the appearance of many incognito apparitions. Susan Toups took home top honors for her imi- tation of a purple grape. The holidays got under- way when the Madrigals from the School of Music presented a special performance at assem- bly, which was taped by Southern Baptist Hospi- tal for patient viewing. Students, faculty, and entertainers enjoyed a traditional, by-request covered dish Thanksgiving luncheon that fol- lowed. As Christmas approached. New Orleans stu- dents spread holiday cheer with the singing of carols at a local nursing home, an event spon- sored by Carey Student Nursing Association. Patients also delighted in the choruses contribut- ed by sing-along pets. Other pre-exam activities included a mid-fall semester pizza party and more professionally- minded programs such as presentations and lun- cheons given by both the US Army and Air Force on nursing careers in the military.

Student leaders took advantage of local events and traditions as they planned the calendar of activities. At the Wel- come Back Winter party immediately following January registration, fix-it-yourself New Orleans style Po-Boys all but broke tradition. Close on its heels were the fun and the festivity associated with Mardi Gras, and king cakes appeared often, even at registration where they were ravely re- ceived by Hattiesburg folks. Green things began peeking through early as spring dawned on the Crescent City and St. Pa- trick ' s Day btought the luck-of-the-Irish color on cupcakes, and decorations to the clinical campus. In the usual spirit of things, a green- blazered Dr. Milton Wheeler traveled 59 South, alias the good saint himself Carey nursing students served as hostesses in the very special Great 100 Activity honoring nurses of the greater New Orleans area. Of those ' top hundred nursing leaders in Louisiana, three. Dr. Joan McConnell, Dr. EUouise Bruce Sneed, and Mrs. Nell Pullen D ' Amico exemplified ex- cellence in the Crusader family, and were hon- ored with a reception at the New Orleans Yacht Club. Highlighting the entire year was the ttadition- al Sophomore-Junior-Senior banquet on April 10. A semi-formal sad and glad occasion, stu- dents and faculty took opportunity to roast and rib one another, some for the last time as profes- sor-student relationships changed to profession- als each. 16 Student Life SCARING UP some fun at Halloween helped Kevin Taylor POST-CLINICAL conversation absorbs Mrs. Mary Nesbitt, and Tracy Templet relax after a grueling day.

A chart-topper with such songs as The Warrior Is a Child, Runner, and The Center of Your Will, Twila presented students and local admirers with what some labeled the year ' s best entertain- ment. Not only was her music spiritually enriching, her heartfelt testimonies were impressive for one of such few years.

Summertime is Hot at Carey! Despite summer heat, students stayed active by being involved in a wide range of activities, on campus and off, including summer missions, Carey Dinner Theatre, and those traditional heat- oriented activities. Three BSU members volunteered to serve as summer missionaries through the Mississippi Baptist Student Union along with 70 other col- lege students from across the state. Susan Bal- lard, Scott Hummel, Renee Nash were commis- sioned to serve in the Philippines, Louisville, Kentucky, and Maryland where they assisted fuUtime missionaries, led Backyard Bible clubs, personal sharing, and surveying. One of the main highlights of the summer was the performances by the Carey Dinner Theatre troupe. In its eleventh season, CDT continued to provide quality entertainment to local theatre goers. As the only college dinner theatre in the Southeast to operate on a regular basis, they enjoyed a reputation of fine food, good com- pany, and topnotch musical entertainment. This seasons shows include PERFECTLY FRANK and REPRISE, a revue of the very best of CDT. Summer jobs, family, vacations, and travel abroad entertained Crusaders out for summer break while others added up credit hours. Coast students enjoyed swimming, the beach, and var- ious other outdoor activities outside of text- books and lectures and test. Baseball and cheerleader camps kept the cam- pus unusually active as did summer school. Feel- ing a higher calling of baseball, Carey pitcher Steve Benton spent his summer touring the country with the Athletes in Action-USA base- ball team. Mock interviews, gown fittings, and talent rehearsals occupied Miss William Carey College Kym Barnes as she prepared to represent the college at the Miss Mississippi Pageant in Vicksburg. Summer at the School of Nursing was initiat- ed with a Step into Summer Party, where stu- dents, faculty, and staff were treated to hot dogs and trimmings by their own SGA and CSNA. Two students walked off with the door prizes which turned out to be more summer fun — watermelons! Juniors were officially inaugurated into the School of Nursing with their Basic Skills and Human Perspectives courses. Completing the end of their junior year, the Class of 1987 labored through Nursing of the Child bearing Family. In spite of the diligent work, students found the time for some diversionary activities as well. Susan Toups and Dorma Abanda were guests of the US Army on a trek to Washington D.C. Not only were they introduced to our nation ' s capitol, but they were also given a grand tour of Walter Reed Hospital. Another senior, David Lawrence, was the recipient of an educational grant from the US Department of Health and Human Services to attend an instructors ' training session on the care of the critically ill child. Several students found the time to volunteer at Southern Baptist Hospital, while others gath- ered their efforts to collect newspapers in sup- port of the Louisianna Special Olympics Eques- trian program. Then there were those who explored the famous New Orleans eateries, toured the French Quarter, or just jogged through Audubon Park. In August, the SGA delegation was welcomed by Hattiesburg students and faculty for an all- day Leadership Conference at the main campus. To close out a long hot summer, students, facul- ty, families, and Hattiesburg guests played and picnicked on the Mississippi levee in uptown New Orleans. Although tempted with all these events, sum- mer seniors kept their priorities in proper per- speaive. While classes of tennis and badmitton. Western Civilization, and English composition occupied the studies of underclassmen, the sum- mer class of 1986 finished up graduation require- ments with those saved-for-the-Iast courses and walked across the stage in August led by honor- ary doaorate recipient Dr. Carolyn Weatherford, executive director of the Southern Baptist Con- vention ' s Women ' s Missionary Union — Shan- non Robert, Claudia Mullen, Sherry Freeman. 20 Student Life BSU MISSIONARIES Susan Ballard, Scott Hummel, and Renee Nash spent their three months off serving stateside and overseas. EVEN CDT HAD its quiet moments. Celena Johj son and Glenn Matthews softly sang to each other whUe audiences enjoyed.

Crusader Review From the Past MAY COURT maids once appeared around McKinnon Pond as a customary right of spring. May Day Highhghted Sixty Years of Spring Beauties May Day ranks as one of the colleges longest standing celebrations, covering a span of nearly sixty years. Although its history goes back to the medi- eval era and students ot American Literature remember it as one of the follies of colonial New England, at William Carey May Day simply af- forded students an opportunity to have an event of pageantry in the beautiful days of spring. Usually the queen and her court were presented to a waiting audience near McKinnon Pond. The sight of coeds in antebellum gowns, escorted by gentlemen in formals, was a pleasant one for spectators seated in chairs on the front lawn of Johnson Hall. The highlight of the day was the May Pole dance, preceded by other acts and skits. May Day programs ended in the 1970 ' s, pri- marily because of a change in semester calendar. Previously the first semester went from Septem- ber to January, with the second semester starting in late January or February. When the semester calendar changed to August-December for first semester and January to early May for the sec- ond. May Day was too close to final exams! Study comes first, so May Day had to go! But it was fun for sixty years. In 1969 Coach John OKeefe ' s baseball team won the NAIA. CRUSADER REVIEW Mather Nutures Excellence in the Field Located on the northeast corner of the Learning Resource Center in McFarland Cen- ter, the Harriet Mather Archives houses col- lections of nursing school records and memorabilia of the Mather School of Nurs- ing of Southern Baptist Hospital in New Or- leans. This collection represents an era of excellence in professional nursing education fron 1929-1972. When futuristic leaders of the Mather School of Nursing foresaw the need for nurs- ing education to take place within an institu- tion of higher learning. The hospital-based diploma school was phased out in 1972 and Southern Baptist Hospital offered its clinical facilities and resources to William Carey Col- lege. The acceptance of these facilities en- abled William Carey College to establish its baccalaureate nursing program which is dedi- cated to upgrade the professionalism and education of nurses. Many Mather alumnae have attended Wil- liam Carey College to obtain their BSN de- grees. Of the current nursing faculty, Mrs. Nell PuUen D ' Amico and Dr. EUouise Bruce Sneed hold degrees from both Mather School of Nursing and William Carey Col- MATHER ARTIFACTS produce historical pride in Mrs, Nell DAmico and Pigskin Par Excellence ... On Enlarging from India to England to Hattiesburg The time has passed but the memories still live in the minds of those who played the game. It was in the falls of 1954 and 1955 that the pigskin was part of the athletic program at Wil- liam Carey College. Since the team was not in a conference, there were no championships, just good Christian fellowship. Most of the players were junior col- lege transfers with a few coming out of high school. The Carey football team played the likes of Milsaps, Louisiana College, Livingston, Delta State, and Troy State, and held their own with such better-established teams. The squad was coached by Les DeVall and in those two seasons Carey posted a 13-3 overall record. Ex-student and player Rev. Bill Mitchell said, Student support was tremendous. We had terrific school spirit. In fact, when the team played in Sherman, Texas, they were ac- companied by a delegation of Carey football fans. Most of the players were Christians and four of them went on to be preachers. The time has passed but the memories still live on. — Carl Owen Two hundred and twent}-four years ago, in late 1761. WILLIAM CAREY was born. His story is one of the most thrilling narratives of the Christian church. It launched a new mission era that has to a great extent accounted for the spread of Christianity a round the wotld. The farm boy from Northamptonshire, England, became a cobbler at 18. He mended shoes with a Bible, history or geography book propped in front of his bench. His concern for the world was so fervent that he wrote in 1792 his Enquery into the Obligations of Christians to the Means for the Conversion of the Heathens. The Enquery stirred interest, but the turning point was a powerful Carey sermon delivered that same year to the Northamptonshire Baptist Association. A call for the evan- gelization of the world, the sermon bore fruit. A mission society was formed, with the humble shoe cobbler as its first missionary. His sermon text had come ftom Isaiah 54:2,3 — Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: Spare not, lengthen thy cords and strengthen thy stakes, For thou shalt break forth on the right and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolute cities to be inhabited In William Carey ' s 41 years in India, he established not fewer than 18 mission stations, set up dozens of schools, and one college, Serampore, translated and printed the Bible in whole or part in 40 Oriental languages and dialeas. launched India ' s first newspaper, and achieved a series of social reforms for which that nation will be forever grateful. It is truly fitting that a man of such high expectations and abilities should be the namesake of a small south Mississip- pi college also founded on similar principles. With excel- lence as a common standard both William Carey and his institution have crusaded to make significant contributions to the world. eSi jss s sB Crusaders Head Home HOMECOMING COURT: Karen Hoffman, Kevin T aylor, Donna Walker, Larry Knight, Shannon Robert, Richard Aspinwall, Darlene Dees.

The excitement began Thursday, February 19 as the campus streets were filled with sounds of merriment and festivity. Hark! the 1987 Home- coming Parade appeared. Participants included Gamma Chi with Here Lies Belhaven, Pi Ome- ga featuring the Homecoming Court, The Ser- ampore Players with their winning entry of The Statue of Victory preceded by the marching band, and last, the infamous entry of the Crusad- er Baseball Team consisting of Cliff White, his car, and toiletpaper. The rainy overcast weather appearing Home- coming day failed to deter participants of Phi Alpha Sigma ' s annual 5-K run. As the winners crossed the finish line, alumni appeared for class reunions and the luncheon featuring former Di- rector of Public Relations, Mrs. Marjorie Row- den Kelley. Honored as outstanding alumnus at the affair was Dr. Don H. Stewart, a Crusader alumnus as is his wife and their 3 children, mak- ing a true family affair. Other alumni events included Old Timer ' s Basketball games and a reception recognizing Dr. Stewart and the 50-year class of 1937. Spirit was its highest when the main event finally arrived. Crusaders and Lady Saders took on Belhaven College in District 30. Amid the half-time Homecoming entertainment, Carey students were presented with their Homecoming Court of Karen Hoffman, the New Orleans Maid and her escort Kevin Taylor, Coast Cam- pus Representatives Leslie Miller and Tim Hef- ferman. Freshman Maid Michelle HoUingsworth and Kevin Sheperd, Sophomore representative Shannon Robert and her escort Richard Aspin- wall, Sharon Coker as Junior Maid and Dewayne Pruitt, Senior Maid Darlene Dees escorted by Vincent Davis. The basketball team elected Donna Walker as their maid escorted by Larry Knight. Maid of honor Donna Hancock was escorted by Philip Price. Homecoming queen Penni Brown was escorted by Bryan Giles and crowned by Dr. J. Ralph Noonkester. Adding to the excitement of the day, both Crusader teams were victorious in their games against the Blazers, securing their places in the District 30 playoffs. In celebration of the event, students joined together for a Homecoming Victory Bash making for quite a memorable weekend. — Mark J. McNeil Homecoming 25 For the Present Valentine Heads Down Under as Fourth Rotary Fellowship Recipient For an incredible fourth straight year, a Wil- liam Carrey senior has won a Rotary Internation- al Fellowship, paying all expenses to the gra- duate school of his choice anywhere in the world! Winning the fellowship this year is student body president Brett Valentine, a biology chem- istry major from Vicksburg. Brett will study bi- ology next year at Otago University in Dunedin, New Zealand, located on the picturesque South Island of the country down under. In addition, he will be an ambassador of goodwill as he addresses Rotary clubs and othej civic groups during the year. Brett ' s success marks a complete college generation of winners for Carey in Rotary Fel- lowship competition. With a winner six of the last ten years, this fourth-in-a-row follows the appointments of Randy Rawls of Forth Worth, who attended Canterbury University in Christ- church, New Zealand; Danny Barber of Ocean Springs, who studied at the University of Queensland in Brisbane, Australia; and Gary Ro- berson of Toomsuba, who matriculated at the University of York in York, England. Interestingly all four had certain common characteristics: they were all pre-med majors; they were all intensively interested in missions; they were all members of the wrestling club (two were captains); and they were all committed to the ideal of CRUSADING FOR EXCEL- LENCE. And speaking of excellence, Brett was not only the first choice of the selection committee, as were the others, he was, according to the committee the unanimous choice.

Two Attend National PBL Convention . from the National Recognition of pre-professional excellence gained from active participation in college orga- nizations was a way of life for some college students, particularly those who held member- ship in Phi Beta Lambda Business Association. As a part of a national organization, the college ' s PBL chapter provided opportunities at state and national levels through regional meetings, com- petitions, and leadership workshops. Two offi- cers from the Carey association, Vice-President Gerald Henderson, and Recording Secretary Danon King pursued such when they attended the National Fall Leadership Conference held in Little Rock, Arkansas, in November as did PBL ' s advisor Dr. Carol Strickland, Professor of Business and Office Administration. While the two officers were attending meet- ings and workshops designed to improve their leadership skills. Dr. Strickland presented a workshop for other PBL advisors on Intergrat ing PBL into the Business Curriculum. The three Carey representatives were among 2,500 high school and college participants from a 12- state southern region. Indicative of the excellence promoted by PBL are its state and national level of competition in selected areas of business administration. The Carey chapter was well represent ed at national competition in July when Danon, the state win- ner in shorthand, brought home first place hon- ors once again. Although primarily a service-oriented associ- ation, PBL exemplifies all that lies behind the philosophy of student organizations at William Carey College by encouraging its student profes- sionals to stretch and achieve excellence in the business field prior to entering the post-gradu- ation job market.

While William Carey students and faculty en- gaged in academic exchanges on three cam- puses, the outside world experienced a rather normal year by historical standards. On the positive side, the nation enjoyed a year of insignificant inflation, with the overall rate at less than one percent. Interest rates were low also, thus helping those businesses desiring to expand. Average interest rates were six to eight percent in contrast to twenty-one percent in 1980. Unemployment likewise was down to six percent. Considering the fact that four percent of our population are unemployable, the year was an excellent year for those who sought jobs. Commuting students were pleased that gasoline prices were low during the year as well. At one time they reached a low of 46.9 in McComb, Magee, and Slidell and averaged 73.9 in the area. This was in contrast to 129.9 the previous year. It was especially a boon for those who enjoy mak- ing weekend trips or longer excursions. But perhaps the most outstanding blessing of the year for the nation was that again the country was at peace. We were not sending alumni or others off to distant lands to fight wars. Nor was a war-time budget draining the citizens of taxes for that purpose. Nevertheless, some dark clouds did cross the horizons of the outside world while we were cheering for our teams, writing book reviews and term papers, and preparing for major examina- tions. Our nation ' s trade balance continued to be unfavorable despite a forty per cent decline in the dollar over the last two years. Congress add- ed to the national deficit, even overriding Presi- dent Reagan ' s veto of a wasteful air and water bill. Unrest continued in Central America as Contras fought Sandinistas in Nicaragua. Private Americans supported the Contras and a few spoke in behalf of the government. President Duarte of El Salvador faced guerilla harassment the entire year. The Phillippines struggled all year in President Corazon Aquino ' s first year. This courageous lady, usually dressed in yellow, was attacked on both sides, by the communist insurgents on the left and by forces still loyal to ex-President Ferdi- nand Marcos, in exile in Hawaii, on the right. Unfortunately, the word terrorism was still on everyone ' s tongue through the year too. Rev. Terry Waite, the Archbishop of Canterbury ' s special envoy, succeeded in the release ot Ameri- can and French hostages in Lebanon, but in turn was captured himself by fanatical terrorist groups. In fact, the Near East remained the most volatile area on earth. Syria tried to bring order out of the Lebanese chaos, but was confounded by the internecine warfare of rival militia units, most of whom were Muslim. Linked to the Lebanese problem was the on- going war between Iraq and Iran. Several times during the year warnings that the larger Iran was about to subdue Iraq were raised, but Iraqi air power managed to hold off the enemy from the east. Iran, it was observed, held considerable influence over Shiite Muslims in Lebanon who had taken a number of the hostages. It was this connection that led to the most serious political problem of President Reagan ' s administration. The National Security Council engaged in arms sales to Iran, ostensibly to court moderate elements in Iran for a rapprochement after the death of the Ayatollah Khomeini but actually to secure the release of hostages in Leba- non, a policy that violated our stated policy of no negotiations with terrorists. The fact that the Democrats gained control of the Senate in the fall elections added momentum for those who would like to embarrass the President. Claims that money from sales to Iran went to help the Contras of Nicaragua complicated the issue even more. The result was that President Reagan, who is one of the most popular Presi- dents in American history, would not enjoy the political power that he had his first six years in office. Also in the troubled Middle East the Soviet Union kept more that 100,000 troops in Afghani- stan in her seven-year effort to keep a puppet regime in power. Signs were that the Soviets were at last winning militarily, but the Afghans ' spirit of resistance remained strong. Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev made sig- nificant progress in his campaign to improve the image of the Soviet Union. He released some well-known dissidents, delivered some remark- able speeches on making the U.S.S.R. more democratic, and tried, in general, to pose as a new man in the Kremlin. He did blame the L;.S., however, for failing to come to an agree- ment in Iceland on disarmament. It seems that the two super powers came close to an agree- ment, but the United States felt that her security could not allow her to shelve her Star Wars defense plans. On other matters, the year was somewhat checkered. We began our fall semester remem- bering the joyous celebrations of the bicenten- nial of the Statue of Liberty and the spring se- mester the bicentennial of our Constitution. But we also had the anniversary of the explosion of the space shuttle Challenger in January, an event that not only took the lives of the seven-person crew but set us back years in our space program. In professional baseball and football it was the year of New York, with the Mets and Giants capturing world championships. Americans in general seemed to be cautiously optimistic about the future. The economy was relatively strong and the nation was at peace. It was a good year for college students to be pre- paring for their day when the world will ask them to take a more active role in its developments. William Carey students can hardly wait!

Several gifts have been highlighted here, but a more complete listing may be found in the college ' s annual fund report McCarty Presents Music Gift William Carey College announced the endow- ment gift of 5100,000 from McCarty Farms. This gift is a part of the Mississippi Mission campaign now underway statewide and is intended to assist the Winters School of Music. H.F. McCarty, president of the Magee-based company, has two daughters who are graduates of William Carey. Patti, a Jackson resident, was a member of the first master ' s in music graduating class of 1974. Kathy, a 1973 graduate in secretar- ial science, is married to Don Flynt, a graduate of Carey ' s church music program. Coast Builds To provide a Conference Center for an en- larged continuing education program and to re- lieve a classroom shortage, the white U-shaped class room building on the coast campus will be converted into a multi-purpose conference cen- ter, college officials announced after the recent board of trustees meeting. According to architectural plans, the grass courtyard of the present building will become a 350-seat auditorium with portable stages and falldown projection screens at both ends. A manual dividing wall will provide the possibility of having two conferences meeting in the audi- torium at the same time. Two classrooms will be on both the east and the west sides of the auditorium. On the north side will be a biology lab, and a lecture class- room. A special sixty-seat conference room will be on the south side of the auditorium, featuring a tall glass window that will afford a view of the Gulf. In all, the 3200 square feet of conference cen- ter and classrooms come after numerous discus- sions of faculty and staff. To complement the center itself, a food service is planned for the student center across the street.

Baptists in this state were faced with a choice of constricting programs because of financial need or extending ministries and chose the latter. The Education Commission of the Mississippi Baptist Convention, under the chairmanship of Dr. Joe L. Tuten, pastor of Calvary Baptist Church in Jackson, began a serious study of critical endowment support for each Baptist col- lege and the children ' s village. At its 149th annu- al session in 1984, the state convention adopted a S40 million dollar endowment campaign, known as the Mississippi Mission, for William Carey College, Mississippi College, Blue Mountain College, and the Baptist Children ' s Village At the Mississippi Baptist Convention in No- vember, 1986, the campaign was entering its fourth and final stages, the congregational gifts division. With the successful completion of the family gifts division early in the campaign, the leadership and major gifts segments were near- ing completion. As the convention convened, Harry Vickery of Greenville, general chairman, was able to announce that over S18 million had been pledged or paid as the S16 million congre- gations division was launched. As of February 6, 1987, the total pledge was 522,808,739. As of the same date the total con- gregational gifts were 51,771,846. This represents 1195 of the 516 million goal from only 3% of the churches. The success of the 540 million campaign will ultimately mean S11.6 million in additional en- dowment for William Carey College. Prior to the beginning of the campaign, the college had less than 51 million in endowment. With the success of this campaign, Carey will be able to expect even greater things from God — Scott Hummel 30 CRUSADER REVIEW Anderson Genealogical Library Housed on Coast Campus William Carey College is into family in a big way due to the housing of the L.W. Anderson Genealogical Library. Anne S. Anderson, who had been interested in genealogy for some time, began to trace her own family history, only to realize that she wasn ' t able to do her genealogy from Gulfport, New Or- leans, or Mobile. So in 1983 she set out to change this by starging her own library with four books in a rented space. Ms. Anderson, with the help of friends and other scholars, collected source books, such as will, marriage records, deed books, and more. Now the library, which is named for her grandmother, contains nearly 40,000 books plus microfilm records. It currently and most appropriately occupies an old turn-of- the-century house at William Carey College on the Coast. The L.W. Anderson Genealogical Library is an undeniable success. It already ranks as one of the ten top such libraries in the South. Corrobo- rating with the tradition of excellence set forth at William Carey College, Ms. Anderson is striving to have THE TOP genealogical institution in the South. In 1985, it was given the National Genealogi- cal Society Award of Merit for outstanding ser- vice. Also, the library was selected over several other sites to host the society ' s 1988 national conference, which will attract genealogists from all over the world. Many thanks should be given to Anne Ander- son, not only for her hard work in this useful endeavor, but also for her willingness to share information with the family of William Carey College. — Traci Davis Admiring a work of art to be presented t kester is Mr. Charles Ambrose.

Tatum Land Gift Substantially Enlarges Campus Financially and Geographically Everyone knows William Carey ' s motto is Expect great things from God; attempt great things for God. This year God has given some great things to William Carey College. Contrib- uting the largest gift of the year, Joe Tatum, president of Tatum Development Corporation, announced during Christmas vacation the gift of 44.5 acres of land and 19.9 acres of road right-of- way to William Carey College. The land adjoins the Hattiesburg campus and will more than dou- ble the size of the home campus. Value of the 64.4 acres alone is $644,000. Timber on the acreage was also presented as a separate gift to the college. President J. Ralph Noonkester accepted the gifts from Tatum and expressed his appreciation for the current gift and past support from the family. The initial 40-acre campus was donated to the Mississippi Baptist Convention in 1911 by W.S.F. Tatum, a widely respected lumberman and Methodist layman. Dr. Noonkester commented, The 19.9 acres of road right-of-way will enable the construction of a three lane parkway (to be named William Carey Parkway) providing access to the college through a beautiful pine forest from Highway 49. The gift of timber will ensure the natural beauty of the new entrance of the campus as well as beauty on grounds for the future de- velopment of the college. The gift of more than 5700,000 adds to the present $12 million in assets of the college. See what happens when we expect great things from God! — Scott Hummel Toward the Futu Oh! Those Forms Lines Identify Registration Long lines, schedule changes, yearbook pic- tures, parking decals, and post office boxes. This conglomerated roster can only mean registra- tion. These are the rites of passage that every college student must endure to be able to take Algebra 101, English Lit 202, and Economics 318. From the length of the lines one could see the admissions office had certainly done a good year ' s work. Of the 2,606 students who regis- tered, 471 were new additions to the ranks. Students maintained good spirits as they greeted returning friends after the summer and Christmas breaks by swapping stories to relieve the monotony of waiting in lengthy but steadily moving lines. The backlog that was experienced on the Hattiesburg campus in September was lessened a great deal in January by the addition of several extra terminals and data entry people in the computer center. Bottlenecks were also eased college wide by the newly acquired VISA and Mastercard system by which students could charge all expenses on convenient plastics. Handfuls of paper were passed out, a few seniors were sent in search of their LD. numbers, news of the evening ' s welcome back party circulated, and plenty of gossip flew.

The student government association spon- sored parties throughout the year. Volleyball matches on the beach reached epidemic pro- portions as competition became vicious when teams took to the sands to outdo one another. Movie nights and socializing in the student center filled spare hours while the Crusader soccer team provided inspirational moments during the fall semester at its NAIA matches. Although most coast students worked full or part-time jobs, the beach was always there, the sun shone most of the time, and Hatties- burg students were usually a bit envious of their well-tanned cohorts.

It began as an informal type of private entertainment following the evening meal in which the lords and ladies performed the music themselves. This Christmas season the Winters School of Music brought to the Hattiesburg and New Or- leans campuses the ninth annual Madrigal Din- ner. People from the community were enter- tained by dancers, the handbell choir, strolling minstrels, harpsichordists, recorders, jesters, and the Royal Madrigal Singers. A group effort, the annual dinner is produced by music students and faculty.

Each show had a hidden message that was brought out by the actors. 3X ALBEE was a funny, entertaining production that displayed some of the talent at Carey. The children ' s theatre production, THE PRINCESS AND THE SWINEHERD, a de- lightful show for younger audiences, proved that a child can have a long attention span.

Newport, faced The Christian Faith and Life ' s Ultimate Questions. Dr. John P. Nea ' pon The Staley Distinguished Scholar Series is a project of the Thomas F. Staley Foundation of New York. The Staley Christian Gospel is always contemporary, relevant and meaningful to any generation when it is proclaimed in its historic fullness. To this end the Foundation seeks to bring to selected college and university cam- puses in America distinguished scholars who tru- ly believe in Jesus Christ and who can clearly communicate their personal faith to the contem- porary student generation. Carey was honored this year to have Dr. John P. Newport as the lecturer during March 2-4. Dr. Newport, the vice president for academic affairs and provost of the Southwestern Baptist The- ological Seminary, has presented formal lecture series in more than forty-five colleges and uni- versities in U.S. .Japan, Europe, the Middle East, Far East, and South America. He attended Wil- liam Jewel College, B.A., University of Basel, Tulane University, Union Theological Seminary, and the University of Zurich, and other presti- gious institutions. Dr. Newport established him- self as an author of note, having published four- teen books, varying in topics from philosophy, biblical interpretation, theology, demonology, contemporary art forms and church history. The topic for the lecture series presented was The Christian Faith and Life ' s Ultimate Ques- tions . Discussed were: the questions of cosmic evil, human morality, man ' s beginnings and de- velopment, miracles, providence, and interces- sory prayer. This particular lecture series was geared toward every Christian who has ever thought seriously about his or her Christianity. Although Dr. Newport is an extra-ordinarily mtelligent man, and at first seemed to intimidate the students, it was not long before everyone realized what an excellent communicator he was with these complex questions. He quickly devel- oped a rapport with many of the students. Many were impressed by his vast travels. When asked what foremost thing he had learned from his travels, he stated that the diversity of Christians around the world helped him to ap- preciate his Baptist traditions. His travels also created in him a deeper conviction concerning the importance of missions. Another question asked of Dr. Newport was, What is the worst thing facing Christianity in the U.S. He replied that it was the tendency of Americans to cultura- lize Christianity which led to a fighting over trivial things and a lack of renewal. The most important thought Dr. Newport left Carey students was the realization that an educat- ed person is one who keeps on growing and searching and not one who simply gets by. Chris- tians should always go the extra mile and be the most aware and informed never being second rate, said Dr. Newport as he was readying him- self to leave the campus after the lecture series. Staley Leaure Series 45 COAST RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES Chapel Services Come to Coast For religious activities on the coast campus, 1986-87 was a milestone year. With the opening of four brand new dormitories the coast campus enjoyed residential living for the first time. Hence, a chapel series was inaugurated and a new era in religious activities dawned. Heretofore all of the coast student body were commuting students and most were also adults taking evening classes. This did not provide a clientele that would lend itself to a day time chapel series. But with the opening of the dormi- tories and the arrival of a fine group of students of the traditional college age, eighteen to twen- ty-two, a daytime chapel series became feasible. Chapel attendance was required according to guidelines established on other campuses: all dorm students were to attend plus those who had Wednesday morning classes. Inasmuch as chapel met from 10:00 to 10:25 on Wednesday morning, students with classes just before or just after that time frame were required to attend. This would not place a hardship on anyone. Chapel met in the student center for the his- toric first year. Next year chapel will use the new facilities of the conference center ' s auditorium. For the first series, speakers were in house. Dr. Milton Wheeler, vice president for student de- velopment, presented the first sixteen devotions from the book of Psalms. In the spring term Mr. Don Fowler, Coast campus coordinator for stu- dent development, chose the speakers and the Another first in coast religious activities was the beginning of a Baptist Student Union pro- gram. Mrs. Cecile Stanback served as sponsor and was assisted by Mr. Tim Thomas, BSU di- rector of Mississippi Gulf Coast Junior College. Activities were held both on our campus and in conjunction with the Jefferson Davis campus BSU. With these two important innovations, the coast campus in the reflections of the future will look back on the year as a major breakthrough in crusading for excellence in religious activities. Academic Coordinator and Student Development Coordina- tor, Don Fowler led chapel services on the Coast campus. The weekly meetings were held every Wednesday morning. 46 Student Life Among his many other responsibilities and undertakmgs, Dr. Wheeler also led chapel services on the coast campus as well as Bible studies at various gatherings on the Hattiesburg The Coast campus student center was the hub of many activities including orientation led by Mr. Joe Moore, Direc- tor of Business Affairs on the Coast campus, and weekly chapel services.

One fellow faculty member has estimated that the red pens of our honoree have marked AT LEAST 60,000 comma splices; 75,000 dangling participles; 100,000 dis- agreements of pronouns and antecedents; and as many as ONE MILLION misspelled words! That ' s quite an allotment of red ink! And, of course, it was all done in the theme of the 1987 CRUSADER, crusader of excellence ! Yes, our student body, faculty, and alumni know by the above observation that the current yearbook is dedicated to Mrs. Georgiann Holli- man, associate professor of English. An alumna of William Carey College (BA) and the University of Alabama (MA), Mrs. HoUi- man has been crusading for excellence as long as her friends have known her. While her enthusi- asm for excellence is known by her students primarily in the realm of essays and term papers, those who know her more intimately are aware that HER crusader is in EVERY category. What is more, Mrs. Holliman does not permit disappointments or difficult situations to stall her crusade. For example, she was a widow with three small daughters when she was a student at William Carey College in the late fifties. Not only did she earn two degrees while rearing three daughters, she found time to be active in her church and community affairs. She then put her three daughters (Sharon, Sandra, and Pam) through college (William Carey, of course). Shar- on married Steve Pierce, a William Carey College student, now Dr. Steve Pierce, who like so many Crusaders, surely heard a cord or two about dou- ble negatives and the like from Mrs. Holliman. Hence, to this lady of quality, who has been crusading for excellence at William Carey Col- lege for twenty-six years (longer when counting her student days), we proudly dedicate our 1987 CRUSADER. THE MIGHTY TERM paper beca McGiU in Mrs. Holliman no foe for Pam GRADING ESSAYS filled many days during Mrs. Geor- giann Holliman ' s 26 years of tenure as English professor when many a student fell victim to her red ink pen. 1987 CRUSADER Dedicated to Mrs. Georgiann HoUiman.

Yes, a fresh new sport blew in from the Gulf and took root on our coast campus. It was cer- tainly a new day in the life of William Carey-on- the-Coast when those fourteen strong young men and their coach moved into the brand new apartments on that campus. Their exercise area included the beach across the street, where they took their morning runs of six miles, and the swimming pool on the front campus, where their games of water polo strengthened their limbs and quickened their reflexes. They practiced Always prepared, faces often turned skyward waiting for the law of gravity to take effect so that the game could be resumed. their soccer strategy on nearby fields in Gulfport and Biloxi. Most of the team came from Florida, al- though there was strong support from fellows from Mississippi, Louisiana, New York, and England. The most valuable player was the all-star from New York, Mike Herlihy, who posed as the team ' s most powerful scoring threat. Perhaps the most colorful player was English goalie Nick Griffiths, whose English dialect confounded of- ficials more often than not. Gary Jacobs of Pen- sacola proved leadership abilities as a goalie as well as on offense. Other than these three, the team was basically freshmen. Despite their youth and inexperience, their not having a home field of their own, their smallness in numbers (after Bill Sargent broke Soccer . . . A New Tradition his leg, their bench had no more than one or two players), and their tough schedule against sea- soned opponents, the first-year soccer team still crusaded for excellence and compiled a respect- able 5-10 record. Surely the highlight of the season was the team ' s upset victory over the University of Southern Mississippi, touted as defending state champions, on Southern ' s home field. Because of a severe thunder storm on the coast, the team arrived in Hattiesburg at precisely 6:59 p.m., one minute before the 7:00 p.m. match, leaving no time for practice or even warm-up drills. Never- theless the rookie team spanked the Eagles be- fore a large crowd, 2-1. Had they not won an- other match all year, the first season had been a success. — Dr. Milton Wheeler Front row: Bill Kimbro, Ray Levitt, John Keeley, Gary Ja- cobs, Paul Ratliff, Brian Treadaway, Gary Williams, Back row: Coach Mark Leuchtman, Bill Sargent, Richard Bran- ham, Patrick Sammis, Nick Griffiths, Mike Herlihy, John Philips, Paul Lowery A little one-on-one competition never hurt anybody. Carey ' s Crusaders sometimes had to bide their time while waiting for a teammate to get into an offensive position. 78 Athletics Pre-game and post-game conferences abounded during their fifteen-game season. One of many such conferences took place between Bill Kimbro and Nick Griffiths. Goalie Gary Jacobs patiently waited for the ball to come to his end of the field many times during the season so that he could carry out his part of the teamwork. ■V, -i-rf rf i  -, A goalie must always e on thf S ' ( ft ' Tw8ie4iEed by.

Crusaders Defeat Hattiesburg Rivals As the back of the stadium of Carey ' s hometown rival loomed in the background, the Crusaders overcame their opponents and gained a victory which was twice as sweet due to its being on the opponents home field.

Students from the Hattiesburg campus showed their enthusiasm, support, and school spirit by their attendance at the local game. Two agamst c Crusader was i didn ' t seem very fair, especially when iring Carey ' s goal. Closmg in on a goal, the Crusaders struggled to i possession of the ball and showed a fme example of team- work in doing so. Although the season ultimately ended in dis- appointment, Katie Eaton says 86-87 was a very good one for her Lady Saders. It was a record-setting year tor the women who finished 18-10 overall and made it to the NAIA District 30 final game before losing to I4th-ranked Dillard 100-81. Mary McCuUom ac- counted for many of those records, but not all of them. The 5-10 junior averaged 32.1 points per game to run off with the national scoring title. McCuUom also accounted for an NAIA re- cord by scoring 899 points this season, breaking the old mark of 895 set m 1984. As for the district records, McCuUom and the Lady Saders rewrote the book, setting eight indi- vidual records and five team marks (and sharing credit for two others). District marks for the season were: field goal percentage — 52% and free throw percent- age — 74%. Both marks landed Carey in the top 10 nationally, second in field goal percentage and tied for fifth (with David Lipscomb, TN) in free throw percentage. PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT and practicing free throws with the rest of the team led Mary McCuliom and the Lady Saders to a Top 10 national ranl ing in free throw and field goal percentages. 1987 LADY SADERS TEAM: Front Row— Donna Hancock, Darlene Burney, Ammie Davis.

Also Carey ' s 98-87 upset over Dillard produced two shared records: most points in a game (195 total) and highest field goal percentage by both teams (57.6). District individual records were set by McCul- iom: season total points, season avergage, season total field goals (356), game field goals and at- tempts (18-of-28 vs. SUNO, Dec. 16); Angel Young: season assist average (lO.O) and game assists (18 vs. SUNO Jan. 22); and Ammie Davis: game rebounds (21 vs. SUNO Dec. 16). Eaton identified two big highlights of the season: upsetting Dillard here and beating Xavi- er on the road in the playoffs. We played all year with a lot of confidence, Eaton said. That helped us win the close ones where last year we didn ' t. There weren ' t many disappointments — drop- ping a 78-77 decision to USM at home and the final game loss to Dillard would rank up there. But Eaton said the biggest was a 76-67 loss to Belhaven in Jackson, costing the ladies a prob- able home game in the playoffs.

For that was what the Crusaders had done for four con- secutive years in District 30, and history would repeat itself for a fifth time around. It was not that the Crusaders played teams easy to defeat. Considering opponents such as Arkansas-Pine Bluff Wayland Baptist, South- east Oklahoma, and Washburn, the competition stacked up nicely. And the Crusaders played nicely. Nor was a winning record due to ease in the district. Spring Hill, Tougaloo and SUNO, and new-comer Mobile College, not to mention arch-rival Xavier, proved that. Perhaps the victo- ries could have been attributed to a well-sea- soned team. Eight were seniors. Seven of those had played together in Clinton gym for at least two years. Their head coach, Steve Knight, had been at it for four years, four winning years. What a force to reckon with on the hardwood. The Crusaders definitely held the upper hand and knew it. After early-season road and home victories, it seemed as if the roundballers were on their way to another record season. With the fall semester behind them and Christmas break at hand, the team took the rest they needed and geared up for district play. Once again though, all eves but theirs looked to Xavier to win the district, and even Xavier planned for it. As one Crusader put it, no way. Even as district playoffs approached, the Crusad- ers were ranked second (behind the Gold Rush), and held uncomfortable losses to Belhaven and Dillard. It could get unnerving. As always, when it counted for good, the team came through victoriously. With a narrow win over visiting Spring Hill in round one, the Cru- saders did what they do best. A certain psycho- logical advantage seemed to follow them on the road. Two season losses to Xavier did not mean the end, and the red-and-black visitors geared up for the BIG game. Still a Championship Team! Crusaders Overcame Odds to Claim District Title Once Again Followed by fans to the Barn, the underrated Crusaders overcame all the odds on that Monday night in New Orleans. Xavier was ready, but the visitors had a reputation to maintain. That is exactly what they did, and no one was more surprised than the Gold Rush. Doing what none in District 30 had before, the Crusaders brought home the title, the trophy, and the trip to Kansas City for the fifth time. KC had become quite a familiar chant to Carey basketball fans. 1987 CRUSADER BASKETBALL TEAM: Greg Hatten, Isaac Simmons, Steve Bankston, Dwayne Jones. Braxton Grumpier.

Scary, in fact. The only thing missing from the NAIA ' s District 50 final game Thursday night was Elvira herself as mistress of cere- monies, De)a vu, mdeed. Final score: Wtlliam Carey 70, Xavier 68, This makes two years in a row that Carey has recovered from two regular-season wipeouts to stun the favored Gold Rush in their Barn in the final The result — lightning strikmg twice in the same place- — left a capacity crowd of 1200 in a state of shock. ■ ' I told you (Wednesday) we were going to wm, said Crusader senior Greg Hanen. This is great! Thursdays victor) ' sends Carey — again, for the fifth straight year— to the NAIA National Tournament in Kansas City, Mo., with a record of 23-12. Xavier finished its season at 22-10. Xavier coach Denny Alexander whose team blew yet an- other district final, fled to the sanctity of his office immedi- ately after the game and was unavailable for comment- Crusader coach Steve Knight had said it might take the best game of the season to overcome the Gold Rush and it very nearly was, Carey executed a brand-new game plan almost to perfection m taking the fight to Xavier right from the beginning. We changed some things with our offense that Xavier had not seen from us, Knight said. It enabled Clarence Gray to get open inside and we were able to get the ball to him. Gray ' s quickness inside proved to be the key early, as the 6-7 senior scored Carey ' s first 8 points and 17 of his game- high 21 points in the first half to spark Carey to an early 12- point lead on several occasions, a complete reversal of form over the previous games, They started out with one man on me. and after I scored four times in a row, they had to go two and then three men, Gray said. We did everything we needed to do Knight also praised defensive execution that held district scoring champ juan Mercier to ]ust 10 points. We did not allow him to get as many shots as he wanted, and a lot of the ones he got didn ' t fall for him, Knight said He didn ' t have a good game and it affected their confi- dence. ' After Xavier figured out how to stop Gray, and with the Xavier guards putting heavy defensive pressure on Hatten { 2- for-9, 7 points), Carey needed a shooter to step forward, and Rocky Evans answered the call. The 6-1 Evans has had something or an erratic senior season for the Crusaders, but in the biggest game of his life, Evans responded by hitting 9- of-10 shots, most of them in a clutch situation, en route to 20 points. I could feel it tonight, I smelled Kansas City, Evans said. I ' ll tell you, the light was on tonight. Evans ' s contribution was needed because the Gold Rush came roaring back late in the first half and early in the second. Ten straight points disposed of most of Carey ' s big lead before halftime and in the second half, the Gold Rush spurted out to a six-point lead, at 48-42 with 16 minutes to go. Instrumental for Xavier was inside work by 6-8 center Alex Williams and 6-5 forward Marc Manuel, who both led Xavier with 16 points. But Evans then hit a jumper, and, after Williams missed two free throws. Gray drove the lane and Stephen Bankston made two free throws to tie it back up. The rest of the way it was nip-and-tuck. as the two teams traded the lead. It looked like Carey might put it in the bag when Robert Young madeapair of free throws with 57 seconds left to give the Saders a 68-64 lead. But Mercier put back a Derrick Collins miss with 46 seconds to go. then Isaac Simmons missed the front end of a 1-and-l for Carey, Williams stuck another putback in to tie it back up. That ' s when Carey turned to Bankston, a steady customer all night in running the Sader offense. Fouled by Collins with 12 seconds to go, Bankston calmly buried both ends of the bonus for the winnmg points. All I could think of was Kansas City, Bankston said. I TWO REGULAR SEASON losses at the hands of the Gold Rush did little to thwart the confidence of Clarence Gray (32). Isaac Simmons (50), and Todd McDonald (40), as they swarmed Xavier to win District 30 ' s championship once again. told myself I was doing it for Kansas City. I can ' t say what ' s inside right now, said an emotional Hatten, who endured tough defense, a sore foot and poor shooter ' s luck to savor his fourth straight trip to K.C I knew we could do It. and we did.

District 30 91 Perhaps some will call the 1987 baseball sea- son the big one that got away . More philo- sophical students will say that it was a graphic lesson on the nature of hfe. At any rate, our baseball team crusaded for excellence down to the final game, but missed going to the regional playoffs by that mere game. The season opened like Gangbusters. A pow- erful veteran team, eyeing another national championship, manhandled the University of West Florida in their doubleheader debut, 12 to 1 and 12 to 2. Victories over Delta State on their own field and over former Coach John Stephen- son ' s University of Southeastern Louisiana (12 to 4) further documented the Crusaders ' prowess. When NCAA contender Indiana State narrowly missed the Crusaders ' bullet (or sword), 8-7, the NAIA national polls saw the Hattiesburg team gaining recognition from coast to coast. Closer to home, the Crusaders jumped into After the 1987 season, all Carey baseball players had a reason to smile. InHelder Craig Fletcher showed his joy over the team ' s record. Pitcher Steve Brantley practiced his pitching while infielder Rusty Phillips waited for the ball to be hit. A Winning Season Crusaders Compile 30-17 Record Gulf Coast Athletic Conference play just as im- pressively. They swept their first three-game se- ries against rival Spring Hill in convincing fash- ion, 18 to 7, 6 to 1, and 1 1 to 5. They then went to Jackson to play another rival, Belhaven. Sand- wiched between a controversial 8 to 7 loss they humbled their hosts 15 to 7 and 13 to 1. In the process, the Crusaders carried big bats, knocking out home runs in all the ball parks. With every batter in the lineup a home run threat, opposing pitchers had difficulty pitching around any Crusader. The team compiled sev- enty-eight home runs, the second highest in Cru- sader history. Rodney Williams and Mike Sum- mer each hit ten over the fences; Vince Davis walloped nine; and Craig Fletcher, Rusty Phillips and Mark Brock each sent eight sailing into orbit. That still leaves twenty-five round-trippers for other team members to slap out, for many teams an accomplishment in its own right. With all the success of the team, however, the nemesis of the season would come from an un- expected quarter, their fellow Baptists of Louisi- ana College. In the first series against the Wild- cats, the Crusaders won two out of three, making twenty victories in their last twenty-one games against the Wildcats. But Louisiana College ' s 4-3 win was so emotional for the team from Pineville that it inspired them to excell in their remaining games and to win the conference championship, their first in history, over the Crusaders in the final game of the season. NAIA pollsters showed their appreciation of the Crusaders by awarding them a No. 13 rank- ing in the nation in the final poll, even though they did not play even one post-season game in district, regional, or national competition. Such a nod was a just recognition for a team that had crusaded for excellence.— Dr. Milton Wheeler 1987 Roster PITCHERS CATCHERS Bryan Giles Randall Mantooth Garren Bates Larry Knight Scott Clifford OUTFIELDERS Donnie Sylvester Kevin Shepherd Cliff White Tony Polizzi Jim Arnold Danny Corliss INFIELDERS Dennis Butler Jeff Miller Mark Brock Dewayne Pruitt Jessie Laird Rodney Williams Vincent Davis Steve Brantley Jeff Mott Steve Benton Mike Summer Richard Burge Rusty Phillips Richard Aspinwall Craig Fletcher Derek Topik Tony Henry ' ¥ff ' M 92 Sports i!!S3 8S S9l 155 :- , Keeping an eye on his team from the outfield, Coach Bobby Halford led the Crusaders to a string of victories.

William Carey College does not work merely to survive but to excel . I am aware that excellence is merely a word as those in the educa- tional community have recently proven. Many are eager to say the word, but few are eager to do the things necessary to attain it. The 1987 Crusader presents to you several things we at William Carey College are now doing in order to move toward the attainment of excellence. We are making headway in our attempt to demonstrate that we will not be satisfied until we have a superior faculty, commit ourselves to the development and maintenance of an attractive physical plant, develop and promote a good library which is central in the activities of the college, develop a thoughtful curriculum, and realize the financial support which will make the above items affordable.

This division, encompassing disciplines of art, biological and physical sciences. Biblical studies, church vocations, English, foreign languages, history, social science, mathematics, philosophy, and sociology, held the highest enrollment of the college ' s academic areas. The traditional academic degree, the bachelor of arts, awarded in most disciplines, subsequently found its greatest popularity with those students studying under the degree plans offered in the college of arts and sciences, emphasizing the tradition of the liberal arts education at William Carey College.

The School of Business team was made up of highly trained faculty and staff of outstanding caliber, whose goal is to provide the very best in learning experiences. Personal interactive com- munication with the student was considered to be extremely important in helping individuals reach their immediate, as well as long-term life goals. The School was totally committed to ' making students aware of their professional, ethical, and moral responsibilities. Graduates of the Carey School of Business are to be found in positions of leadership around the world. The vitalized, strongly ethical. Christian heri- tage from the past related efficiently and harmo- niously to the institution ' s current and future Christian dynamism, commitment, and strength. In this regard, the School of Business was abso- lutely committed to challenging its students to EXCELLENCE.

In addition to its undergraduate and graduate teaching function, the school provides inservice education for schools, agencies, and institutions; conducts re- search in response to educational problems; and provides consultative service to all types and levels of educational or community groups. Administratively, the School of Education is composed of the departments of curriculum and instruction, health and physical education and psychology. In addition, all students in the de- partments of art. Biblical studies, biological sci- ences, business education, chemistry and phys- ics, curriculum and instruction, English and foreign language, health and physical education, history and the social sciences, mathematics, mu- sic, psychology and theatre and speech, who are preparing to become teachers in elementary and secondary schools, must apply and be admitted to the professional program in teacher education to pursue a teaching degree. The college ' s School of Education is regional- ly accredited and is an active member of the American Association of Colleges of Teacher Education.

The implications and applications of this discov- ery contributed to the student ' s cultural, intellec- tual, and character development, his self-expres- sion and recreation, and his practical use of music as a profession. Student recitals, studio recitals, pedagogy lessons, and ensembles such as Chorale, Carillions, Carpenter ' s Wood, and Chapel Choir served to carry out the basic tenets of the school ' s philosophy of training, teaching, and performance. Undertakings such as Madri- ,1s united the efforts of the entire department and benefited the program as a major money- raiser for the year. Smith Auditorium boasted other musical per- formances when the college hosted the Hatties- burg Community Concert Series in its facilities. Although not directly involved the series has become quite a tradition on the Hattiesburg campus and serves as an enhancement to those alrea dy conducted through the department. Spe- cial guests this year included the Westminster Choir, a group that has set the standard for cho- ral excellence for more than 60 years.

To the students they became more than instructors, and challenged the aspiring nurses as advisors and professional role models. The association has endeavored for the past six years to improve the curriculum for the baccalaure- ate nursing program. Not only was the content of each class evaluated and improved upon, but also new courses were added. The result of this continual revamping was obvious when 100% of the 1986 graduating generic students passed their state boards on their first seating. Quite an unusual ac- complishment compared to the national average! But for the class of 1986, the standards had been set when the graduates of the previous year had done exactly the same thing! What a record of excellence for both faculty and students! In addition to evaluating themselves, the faculty welcomed suggestions from the student body. They also initiated a monitoring program by forming an ad hoc committee to review the standards for main- taining clinical competency. Student input was al- lowed because SGA and CSNA presidents as well as class representatives were non-voting members of the faculty association. Several of the faculty served as advisors to various organizations and worked closely with officers and members in preparing them for later leadership and participation in civic, community, and professional organizations. — Clau- dia Mullen and David Lawrence The 1987 CRUSADER salutes those of this fine program who have worked so very hard on the Crusade of Excellence.

Then the Gamma Chi ' s held a spaghetti dinner honoring their new big brothers and welcome them to the Carey social scene. For the FJalloween Carnival, the club quenched thirsties with its coke booth. They also took advantage of the dirt on campus by putting it to use for an ooze-ball volleyball game.

One of the most important things an individ- ual can do is build happy memories to draw from as she travels along life ' s highway. For no matter what happens, no individual nor set of circum- stances can deprive her of her memories. The year in Pi Omega was full of happy mem- ory building. There were memories of a Fall Frolic, a day at Kamper Park, working to raise money for the zoo, the Masquerade Ball at Hal- loween, and the Homecoming victory party for the basketball teams. Car washes, campus clean- ups, garage sales, and a well-received Halloween Carnival massage parlor indoctrinated pledges and members into the sisterhood of Pi Omega. Swans and hearts symbolized the women throughout the year, and Pi Ome ga ' s were visa- ble across campus in their pink and white sweat- shirts. The year cluminated with the memories from a formal dinner cruise aboard the CREOLE QUEEN in New Orleans. Being a member of Pi Omega not only al- lowed ladies the opportunties to build great memories but also provided an additional outlet to make cherished friends as they worked toward the ideals of spirit and beauty.

We now take this time to encourage our and future classes to strive, to undertake, and to achieve. To the future we pledge; a CRUSADE OF EXCELLENCE. Soon life ' s plan will lead us from Carey ' s bosom into our futures. We will take with us the knowledge we have acquired: a pearl of greater price, the ability to attempt and excel in all that we undertake. We have walked through Carey ' s history of excellence as she has struggled through incarnation after incarnation. We have seen heroes past and present: undertakings, renovations, and student achievements. There are other heroes to whom we owe praise: those of Carey ' s children who are not as famous, but are distinguished and dear to all: To her instructors we owe the knowledge they share, their love and guidance that brings Carey ' s sons and daughters to graduation. In the words of William Wordsworth, Great men have been among us: hands that permed and tongues that unered wisdom — better none! And in the views and traditions of Percy Shelley, absolute beauty is mortal and pervades every- thing; it IS our intellectual beauty that is immortal. It is our instruaors to whom we owe our CRUSADE OF EXCELLENCE. To her students we owe social traditions from which all students may benefit. To the newest student whose only hope is to be welcomed and to belong, these traditions are an offered environment from which one may prosper and endure. And it must follow that they too will pass this tradition to future classes. To God we owe our ultimate debt. We are taught to Expect great things from God; attempt great things for God. In our quest for excellence, we must realize his presence. The Crusader staff may take the word excellence out of context in the sense that we have adapted our own definition. But our meaning brings Mother Carey to her true foundation. It is for this reason that we have entitled the 1987 CRUSADER CRUSADE OF EXCELLENCE. —Mark J.

A Word from Dr. Wheeler As most of our college family know, our dean of women Miss Beki e Ray suffered a terrible head-on automobile accident in July while on her way to Vicksburg for the Miss Mississippi Pageant, where she was to coach our Miss Wil- liam Carey. At press time she is in the Hebert Rehabilitation Center in New Orleans undergo- ing intensive therapy. Our prayers are that she will have a steady improvement and will return to her office as speedily as possible. Bekke would want me to point out that Mrs. Ann Nelson, one of our alumni, volunteered to help our staff complete this year ' s volume. I would go a step farther and say that Mrs. Nel- son ' s assistance was INVALUABLE. She worked tirelessly, night and day, for a month to bring the work to fruition. We salute Ann (HoUaday) Nelson for putting the finishing touch to our CRUSADE FOR EX- CELLENCE!

Closing 169 From the Editor . . . Through the past years, William Carey College has achieved a standard of excellence in its many endeavors. This standard resulted in our choosing Crusade of Excellence to be the theme for the 1986-87 CRUSADER. Many people helped to attain the excellence achieved in this yearbook. I would like to take this opportunity to thank them because, had it not been for them, this yearbook would not have been possible. Besides those pictured, I would like to thank Richard Aspinwall, Sarah Bond, Tracy Davis, David Lawrence, Mark J. McNeil, Claudia Mullen, Carl Owen, Mark Scott, DeDe Shows, and Denise Trotter. I would especially like to thank Mark J. McNeil, Shannon Robert, and Denise Trotter for the extra time they put in. A very special thank you goes to Mr. John Forde, Dr. Milton Wheeler, and Mrs. Ann Nelson who all pitched in after Bekke ' s accident. Dr. Wheeler ' s copy writing skills and Ann Nelson ' s abundant help (and experience) in completing the yearbook were a tremendous help. Words cannot express the many thanks which adviser Bekke Ray deserves. Her long nights and extra hours are greatly appreciated. My wish at this time is for her speedy recovery. W Th.
