Beginning a New Era

Dr. M. Dwaine Greene

From The President

arolyn and I are deeply touched by the warm and wonderful welcome we have received during our first few weeks at Georgetown College. Everyone we have met has been so engaging and helpful as we go about learning our way around the campus and

throughout greater Georgetown, Scott County, Central Kentucky and beyond. We are already enjoying shaping friendships with students, faculty, staff, alumni, local residents, and many others.

We are happy that God led us to this community and to this college.

When exploring the invitation to consider the presidency of Georgetown College, Carolyn and I learned much about the rich traditions and accomplishments here. As I stated during my remarks at Opening Convocation in August, recent achievements at the college are most impressive, as are the well-documented historic ones. We found so many things for which to be ‘Georgetown Proud’ that it shines as the theme for this academic year. I hope you share it with me.

As I also said in August, in my view Georgetown pursues a mission to prepare students for productive lives, and in that preparation to foster a high level of academic performance, an appreciation of Christian faith and values, and the exercise of responsible citizenship. This worthy mission is pursued in a caring environment which respects diverse experiences and perspectives.

We look forward with great optimism and great joy to what we will accomplish together.

Again, Carolyn and I are thrilled to be here and we are anxious to meet each and every member of the Georgetown College family. Thank you for the warm welcome we are enjoying.

Blessings,

President, Georgetown College

One of the great paradoxes of life is that,

though we as humans generally like stability

and resist change, it is only through change

that we can grow and progress.

GC Magazine is intended to update,

educate and entertain readers about the

College and its alumni and to serve as

an enduring link between graduates

The inaugural “Lunch Bunch gath-ering” held at the Pendennis Club in downtown Louisville in September was a huge success. Nearly 20 alumni attended, representing graduates from Jefferson, Oldham and Shelby Counties.

The Dutch treat Gathering is a new initiative of GC’s alumni relations of-fice. Plans call for lunches to be held in various communities on a monthly

basis, according to Laura Owsley ’92, director of alumni relations. Laura encour-ages Tigers to connect and says she looks forward to visiting with alumni in the months ahead in local communities everywhere.

Information will be posted in advance on the alumni page of the college Web site, so be sure to check regularly to see when the Gathering will be in an area near you. The city of the month will also be posted on various GC social media outlets.

Alumnus gives a second chance at life

Matthew Hubbard ‘10 has saved a life because of an opportunity he had at Georgetown College. His sophomore year, Be the Match Registry Foundation was in the Caf, looking for possible bone marrow donors. The foundation helps patients who need a bone marrow or cord blood transplant

to fight diseases like leukemia or lymphoma. He joined the registry, and was contacted in May 2013 as a possible match for

a 24-year-old female leukemia patient. This past September, Hubbard had the operation to donate bone marrow at the Lexington Markey Cancer Center.

“It’s almost been two months since the procedure and I’m doing well,” he said. “I just finished running a half marathon, so I think it’s safe to say I am fully recovered!”

He recently received an update from the match registry saying that the leuke-mia patient was doing great, and the transplant was successful. “They said she still had a long road to recovery, but so far everything indicates that she will be cancer free by the end of it,” he said.

Hubbard also received a letter from the patient, written five days after the pro-cedure. “She thanked me for my gift of life and a second chance.” he said. “She hopes that we can become pen pals throughout the next year until we could meet eventually.”

Hubbard said that he is extremely excited to be a part of this experience. “I have to thank Georgetown College for providing this opportunity, and my wife Danielle for her loving support and amazing courage.”

Alumni Relations to hold monthly Lunch Bunch

The ‘Georgetown Experience’ is used by many alumni to describe their four years on campus. At the top of most lists are the

relationships that one develops – the lifelong type. The “G-town Gals” are a great example of this experience. Nearly 50 years

after graduation, Linda Schneider Rhea shared some of her memories. Here is a picture of my ‘G-Town Gals’. We have gotten together at my Louisville home for the past 3 years now. They stay

for a week or more. We have activities, take some local tours, eat at interesting restaurants, and have a lot of big laughs.

Snacks and great food are shared along with recipes. Now we have our own private Facebook page and keep in touch

constantly. We have decided that our personalities have not changed. All the Gals say it is just like our time at Georgetown,

only without the classes. We all lived in the basement of Knight Hall. We played tricks on each other in the 60’s and we do the

same now. We all are a great support to one another on Facebook, by cards, letters, on the phone and sometimes unexpected

visits. Playing and praying together makes us all feel young again. We live in different places, but for one week each year

we gather at my Louisville home for fun, activities, day tours, food and fellowship. We have Gals in from California, Illinois,

Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia and Alabama. Our reunion shirts one year said “G-town Gals - Knight Hall - Sweated The 60’s”.

I have so many wonderful memories of Georgetown, it’s hard to pick my favorite. I think the funniest one is the night that the

rest of the group TP’d Lila and Chyleen’s room and put it in disarray. Afterwards we felt guilty, so we went back and cleaned

it up. So, the first year of the reunion at my house everyone TP’d my bedroom. After all these years, it was so funny. What

a surprise for me. Then everyone pitched in and cleaned it up. It was like dorm life revisited. Linda’s granddaughter, Cailyn

is now a sophomore at Georgetown. Linda says that she has learned a lot at Georgetown. She too, has made some great

friendships. It is good to know that Georgetown has helped her to grow as a person and broaden her horizons in a Christian

environment.

Recently, Linda Rhea named a townhouse in Rucker Village in memory of her cousins and a townhouse in Hambrick Village in

honor of her mother and sisters and in memory of her father.

IntroducingDr. M. Dwaine

Greene

24 th PresidentBY | MELANIE LADD ’94


orn on a small farm in Watauga County near Boone,

North Carolina, Dr. Michael “Dwaine” Greene was of the seventh generation of his family to call the area home.

“My roots there are deep, and the mountains of North Carolina are important to me,” says Dr. Greene. A lifelong Baptist, his parents were both educators as well as operators of the family farm. During his formative years, Dr. Greene was an aspiring athlete, especially gifted at baseball. His love for the sport led him to seek out and accept an op-portunity to play for Campbell University, about four hours from his family’s home. While a student, Dr. Greene determined he wanted to be a col-lege professor.

Dr. Greene met his wife, Carolyn, while he was an up-

perclassman. It was Carolyn’s brother-in-law, Dr. Greene’s suitemate, who introduced them. The two dated long-distance as Carolyn attended school at UNC-Greensboro. The couple has now been married for thirty-three years.

After graduating from Campbell in 1979, Dr. Greene moved on to Wake Forest University for his master’s degree, and earned his doctorate from the University of Virginia. He became a Professor of Religion and Chair-person of the Religion and Philosophy Department at Chowan University in Murfreesboro, NC, where he worked for four years. He then accepted a position at Lees-McRae College in Banner Elk, NC, where he served as a professor, Provost/Dean of Faculty, and acting presi-dent for a time.

He and Carolyn, by then parents of daughters Patricia and Meredith, were thrilled to be able to make a home on his family’s farm in Watauga County and enjoy the richness of daily life with relatives nearby.

“We had every intention of staying there for the rest of our days, but the Lord had other plans,” Dr. Greene relates with a smile.

After eleven years at Lees-McRae, Dr. Greene received an offer from Campbell University to become their Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost. “It was an

days, but the Lord had other plans.”


honor to be called to be the leader of the academic program at my alma mater,” he says. Twenty-two years after his gradu-ation from Campbell, he accepted the position and the family moved to Buies Creek, NC.

During his twelve-year tenure at Campbell University, Dr. Greene led multiple curriculum revisions, established new programs at all degree levels, and played an important role in the school’s negotiation of a new relationship with the North Carolina Baptist State Convention. He serves on the Board of Trustees of the prestigious Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC), a “regional body for the accreditation of degree-granting higher educa-tion institutions in the southern states,” whose jurisdiction includes Georgetown College.

Though he did not initially apply for the position of President of Georgetown College, his reputation led the search commit-tee to seek him out and suggest a meeting. Well-established in North Carolina’s higher education arena, the Greenes never anticipated leaving the state. “But sparks get in you and you realize the Lord has the plan you need to follow,” says Dr. Greene. So he agreed to meet with the search committee. “After our first meeting, we knew he was the right person for the job,” says B.I. Houston, trustee and Chairman of the Presi-dential Search Committee. “But we didn’t think the odds of his leaving Campbell and North Carolina to come to Kentucky were very good. We prayed a lot, and knew the Lord would give us the right answer.”

It was a tough decision for the Greenes, whose daughters are both currently living in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. “Ultimately, we came to the conclusion that staying comfort-able wouldn’t be the right thing to do,” Dr. Greene says. “With the Lord’s leading, we decided to step forward and come to Georgetown College.” In the address he delivered at Opening Convocation, Dr. Greene said, “As I see it, Georgetown pursues a mission to prepare students for productive lives, and in that preparation to foster a high level of academic performance, an appreciation of Christian faith and values, and the exercise of responsible citizenship. This worthy mission is pursued in a caring environment which respects diverse experiences and perspectives.” These attributes appealed to him as a man of faith with twenty-seven years of service in academia.

When asked what changes he foresees for the college, he in-sists it’s essential to first determine what practices, procedures and personnel are already in place. His answer regarding what he finds special about Georgetown College is the “caliber of the people working here”. He is adamant that the college community as a whole needs to not get “wrapped up in the problems, but to think positively. Georgetown College needs to feel good about itself and its wonderful mission, history and academic strength.” He says GC is currently facing challenges that are common among small liberal arts colleges across the country. Dr. Greene believes diligently addressing the need to increase enrollment and revenue will help put the college on solid footing once again, and has numerous ideas to accom-plish those goals. He says, “I am pleased to be here and very proud of Georgetown. I will give everything I can to help this college flourish.”

arolyn Greene is surprised to be living in Kentucky. Born in Trenton, New Jersey, she and many members of her family migrated to North

Carolina through the years, including her two siblings and mother, who remain there. “It’s a God thing that we’re here,” she says of her new residence. “We want to have a positive impact on Georgetown, and I want to help in any way I can to fulfill the mission here and support Dwaine in what he’s called to do while we’re here.”

Mrs. Greene has been her husband’s biggest supporter for over thirty-three years, working in various employ-ment fields as he attended graduate school. Some of her jobs included serving as a Public Safety Information Ana-lyst for the fire department in Winston-Salem, NC, work-ing for the National Legal Research Group in Charlottes-ville, VA, and acting as an administrative assistant for the Psychology department at Appalachian State University in Boone, NC. The fruits of her most influential role, stay-at-home mom, are evidenced by the success of the couple’s daughters, Patricia, 27, and Meredith, 25.

Both girls graduated from Campbell University, then pursued graduate school. Patricia earned a Master’s of Divinity degree from Union Presbyterian Seminary in

Richmond, VA and is now completing a one-year chap-lain residency at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in Winston-Salem, NC. Meredith is in the fourth year of the molecular medicine Ph.D. program at Wake Forest Uni-versity where she is studying osteoarthritis.

Through the years Carolyn has enjoyed doing crewel embroidery, a skill taught to her by her grandmother. She also does other types of needlework and likes to cook. A former intramural volleyball player, Carolyn is a fan of all kinds of sporting events. She played piccolo in her high school marching band and still likes to attend band and choir performances.

While settling into her new home, she discovered quickly the whistle of nearby trains. She found this a comfort, as tracks running near her house when she was growing up led her to develop a fondness for the sound. One of the things she’s been most grateful to learn since Dr. Greene accepted the position at Georgetown is that people have been praying for them for months. “And they didn’t even know us,” she says, clearly moved. “We look forward to getting to know the students, faculty, staff and community,” she says. “We’re very excited to be here.”

VOLLEYBALL: The Tigers have battled some youthful issues, but continue to be a mainstay on the national scene. Georgetown took on one of its toughest schedules to date and finished the regular season 29-9. They notched three more wins in the Mid-South Conference Tournament. In doing so they reclaimed the MSC Tournament Title for the 15th time and first since 2009 as well as recorded the programs 1,100 win. Only three other programs have accomplished that feat in the NAIA. Allyson Wilbourn, Caraline Maher and Rachel Eubanks, all juniors, eclipsed 1,000 kills each within less than a two week time frame. Several players have earned MSC Player of the Week honors, while Maher earned NAIA Player of the Week. Erica Janszen was the last Tiger to receive the national award. The Tigers are poised to make a run in the postseason. They finished with a ranking of 12th.

WOMEN’S SOCCER: The Tigers have been young at times following the graduation of a lot of the offense from the past several seasons. However, when healthy, Leah Crews Castleman’s team has proven to be very strong in all phases of the game. Georgetown has earned several players of the week honors and finished up the regular season 9-6-1. The Tigers saved one of its best games on the road in the quarterfinals of the MSC tournament; upsetting third-seeded Campbellsville 2-1 and making a 14th straight trip to the conference tournament semifinals.

MEN’S SOCCER: Coach Derek Willis’ squad has really benefited from a strong senior class, a successful spring training on the new turf field and a majority of his team staying healthy this season. After posting back-to-back three win seasons, the Tigers re-emerged as one of the better teams in the very powerful Mid-South Conference. GC finished the regular season 5-11-1 with a big overtime victory over Cumberland University (TN). The Tigers fought hard in a quarterfinal match at higher-seeded Campbellsville, but came up on the short side of the scoreboard to finish the season.

GOLF: The men’s and women’s golf teams competed in several fall rounds in preparation for the upcoming spring season. The fall was highlighted by Morgan Reed’s charge in the final match of the season. He finished by earning all-tournament honors for the match at St. Catharine, which will also be the course for the upcoming spring conference tournament. The women had up and down moments, but look to build on a strong finish in Springfield when play resumes in March.

FOOTBALL: Georgetown College football has received its fourth straight and 19th overall trip to the NAIA Football Championship Series. The No. 13 Tigers finished the regular season 7-3, earning a rubber match meeting with No. 3 Carroll College in the first round. The Fighting Saints needed a late surge to overcome Georgetown, 38-28, Saturday, Nov. 23. The Tigers had an impressive season with a 5-1 mark in the Mid-South Conference East and finished second.

ATHLETICS


For recent Tiger athletics statistics, visit

TENNIS: The Tigers were once again the host school for the ITA Regional Tournament. Georgetown played host to 13 teams and Coach Jessica Cunningham had several players advance into action on Day 2 and one make it all the way to the final day of play. The women showed that the team could be a solid contender this season in the MSC, while the men proved, if healthy, they can also make a run at some of the top programs.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL: For the first time in program history, the Tigers are preseason ranked No. 4. The women also were tabbed to finish atop the Mid-South Conference this season, and opened MSC action with University of the Cumberlands. Coach Andrea McCloskey returns all her statistical leaders from her Top 15 team from a season ago. Along with the returners, the third year coach signed two highly talented post players to add length and speed to her guard heavy squad. After five games the Tigers are 4-1.

MEN’S BASKETBALL: The No. 1 Tigers are sitting at 6-0 after a pair of big wins in the Central Bank Jim Reid Classic. Georgetown won its 18th title in the tournament that honors former GC standout and legendary coach. GC began Mid-South Conference action against rival University of the Cumberlands. The team plays two more home games – Martin Methodist and UC Clermont – before finally hitting the road Dec. 2 for a game against Life University.

ACADEMICS: Tigers started strong in the fall semester. The six sports in action flexed their brain power. There were 35 MSC All-Academic honorees (sophomores or above with at least a 3.25 GPA), and 14 NAIA Daktronics Scholar Athletes (junior or above with at least a 3.5 GPA).

WOMEN’S LACROSSE: Georgetown began a new sport this fall as women’s lacrosse started its club year. The Tigers played seven games, posting three wins, including victories over Xavier University and University of Cincinnati’s club team. Coach Brandon Davis is working to gel his team of recruits with several young ladies already at Georgetown that made the team through tryouts. GC will be back in action with another slate of games in the spring.

MEN’S CROSS COUNTRY: The Tigers have unfortunately been hit by the injury bug that has depleted some of the past few seasons’ energy. However, Coach Todd McDaniel has been pleased with his men’s teams effort in every meet. Sam Heaton earned MSC Runner of the Week during the year and numerous runners had personal bests throughout the season. The men finished sixth at the recent conference race to finish the year. WOMEN’S CROSS COUNTRY: Coach Todd McDaniel’s women’s team has been on the rise this season. Lead by sophomore Tayler Godar, the Tigers have finished in the Top 10 four times, Top 5 twice and most recently began garnering votes in the NAIA Coaches’ Poll. The team runs well together and even without a seventh runner at some races, has been able to put five in great scoring position. Godar earned MSC Runner of the Week once and most of the women have set new personal records this season. Godar and Mary Jefferson finished fifth and 11th in the recent conference race, punching their tickets to the Nov. 23 national meet in Kansas. The team overall finished third in the conference.

This year starts a new initiative, Show Your Stripes — a campaign to get as many alumni as possible to share stories about their Georgetown College experience.

With over 19,000 living alums, there are countless memories, each of them unique to every past Tiger.

For example, Angelina McCoy, a 2010 alum, majored in stu-dio art and discovered her passion for art history.

“My first class with Dr. Decker changed my view on art his-tory; I actually enjoyed reading and writing about art for the first time,” she said. Because of her professor, McCoy is cur-rently pursuing a Master of Arts in art history at the University of Cincinnati.

“I look forward to whatever the future holds when I complete my Master’s,” she said. “Whether it be in a museum or a small non-profit organization, I look forward to inspiring individuals and connecting art and people.”

McCoy says that her GC experience “enabled me to grow as an artist, scholar, and individual as well as lead me to where I am today.”

Along with your stories, Georgetown College asks for your support in donations to help fund the education of its future students. Gifts received will not be going towards an endow-ment, but will fund scholarships, providing much needed help for students.

With the arrival of our new president, Dr. Dwaine Greene, GC is hoping for a big response from alumni. As he provides lead-ership to Georgetown, alums can be there to support him.

In the words of Granetta Blevins, “Let us show him how strong the alumni support is through an overwhelming response to this request. Together, we can set a record for both the rate of our participation and the overall sum.”

Rebecca Redding, a 2010 alum, said in her GC story, “No matter where I end up, I am extremely grateful for my education at Georgetown College and wouldn’t be where I am without it.”

The gift you give, in story and/or monetary form, will have a positive impact on GC students and the college as a whole. This is a chance for our GC community to come together and sup-port the college. In other words, show our stripes.

In a letter introducing the

Show Your Stripes initiative, Georgetown’sformer Acting President Granetta Blevins wrote,

People generously gave so that I could have my Georgetown College experience. I give so that others can come to Georgetown and have theirs – an opportunity to learn, to make life-long friends, and to have Christian love, care, and support.

Cindy Peak ‘80

In the fall of 1976, as a young woman from Newport, I arrived at Georgetown College to begin an adventure in engineering studies. I chose Georgetown because it provided me with the opportunity to pursue a degree in engineering along with the well-rounded, Christian liberal arts education that I believed was critically important for any career. I am even more con-vinced of its importance today.

Georgetown gave me a solid foundation in engineer-ing and much more! Taught by actual professors (not students just a few years ahead of me), I was able to get all the basics of engineering studies, and in classrooms of less than 20 students where we were free to interact and ask questions. I avoided the Calculus and Physics studies with 500 of my closest friends common at many schools, choosing instead to be personally in-structed by not only great teachers, but outstand-ing moral men and women. Their efforts allowed me to transform my dreams of becoming an engineer into a reality.

I was the first woman to graduate from Georgetown College with a B.S. in Engineering. After Georgetown, I completed the dual-degree program at the University of Kentucky, where I graduated with a degree in Electrical Engineering and ob-tained many job offers before graduation.

Throughout my 27-year career in engineering, my George-

town education served me well. I designed and built commu-nications systems as an engineer, but doors also opened to do things that required more than just a technical background: technical business development, proposal writing and manage-ment, systems engineering management, and even teaching systems engineering at the graduate level. I represented the United States in international standards development under the United Nations’ International Civil Aviation Organization. I led the development of the first National Airspace System Archi-tecture for the Federal Aviation Administration. And I and my

husband started our own engineering company doing research for NASA. None of these would have been

possible without the solid foundation provided to me by Georgetown College.

In 2011, I retired from engineering to begin a new career writing Christian children’s books, and started a Christian writing and publish-ing company, Frolicking Home. Even in this,

my Georgetown education supports me. Our first book, “The Little Star that Shines for Jesus,”

won the Christian Choice Book Award for 2013 in the Children’s Books category (and Frolicking Home is

honored that Georgetown selected Little Star to be gifted to Alumni who have babies). Our second book, “Little Lamb Meets the Shepherd,” just went to print.

Georgetown College’s motto is “Live, Learn, Believe.” I think it should be “Live, Learn, Believe and Be More” because through Georgetown I was able to be what I had hoped to be and more.

Tyler C. Wash ‘09

If you came into my office and looked around, the only memento of my Tiger Pride you might notice is my diploma, displayed proudly on my wall. However, if you took a seat at my desk and examined the contents of my office carefully, you’d see mementos that represent a very special time in my life, when I called Georgetown College home. These mementos remind me of the values that Georgetown instilled in me throughout my four years on campus: leadership, pas-sion, learning, friendship and faith. Instilled in me in Georgetown, they surround me now in Oxford, OH.

Sitting in my desk drawer is my memento of leadership. It’s a letter opener that has the Col-lege’s coat of arms and the words “2009 Presi-dent’s Ambassadors” engraved. The lessons and experiences which I gained through that program were only possible because of George-town’s commitment to develop its students.

Hanging on the wall is my memento of passion. It is a fraternity composite from the year I was president of the Delta Theta chapter of Phi Kappa Tau. My campus life passions ranged from Phi Kappa Tau, to the Georgetown College Cho-rale, to cheering on the soccer team. The Georgetown experi-ence teaches the life lesson that passion drives success.

A set of textbooks from my political science classes is my memento of learning. While the lessons related to government, international affairs and public administration were important in

developing the person I am today, the overall lesson imparted to me through Dr. Michael Cairo and the political science department was one of lifetime learning. The skills of research, study and comprehension not only allowed me to pass my classes, I also use them every day in my professional and per-sonal life.

Propped next to my window is my memento of friendship. It’s a picture of my best friends at Keeneland. I met everyone in the picture at Georgetown and though we are now spread

out across several states, many of us married and with careers, there isn’t a week that goes by that we do

not talk, text or email. On the left side of my desk is my memento

of faith. It’s a Bible, a graduation gift from the Marshall Center for Christian Ministry. My faith was challenged and affirmed during my time at Georgetown. The quality of education paired with deeply rooted Christian values has molded

me into the man I am today. It is amazing how many conversations are started with colleagues and

friends just because a Bible is displayed on my desk. I have been able to have conversations relating to faith with

people of various denominations, belief systems and traditions. I have found you can tell a lot about a person, regardless of their beliefs, by discussing spiritual issues.

While graduating is important, the idea of producing strong leaders who will go out in the world and make a difference is the defining factor in a Georgetown College education.


After the senior class crosses the stage in May, and underclassmen

return home for summer jobs or head out to serve on summer

mission teams abroad, a quiet calm begins to settle over Georgetown College.

Or does it?

summer programs & camps

at georgetown college BY | ELIzABETH D. SANDS WISE

GC athletic camps date back to the 1980s, but executive director Dr. Peter LaRue, the well-recognized face behind Tiger Bands, has made Summer Programs and Camps more centralized. Due to “a great deal of serendipity factor,” he jokes, LaRue took the program’s reins, going above and beyond what was required.

LaRue’s Summer Programs and Camps (SP&C) team (pictured right) includes Lucas Gravitt ’07 as managing director and Jan Lobitz as administrative coordinator. For the 2013 season, current GC students Travis Mazurek and Jacob Townson, as well as EKU student Kenny Compton, rounded out the team. Members of the SP&C team are on duty around the clock during the summer, with year-round planning required to keep the twelve-week camping season running smoothly.

“That’s the nature of the beast,” LaRue says, “but we’re so well known for our customer service. We have the same clients functionally year after year, and we develop these wonderful relationships. And the way you develop those relationships is to really tend to their needs.”

The SP&C Team keeps the campus connected to the chaotic schedule of camps through weekly “TWAG” (This Week at Georgetown) e-mails. Informative and comedic, they encourage the community to welcome new groups to campus with patience and hospitality.

Kicking off the SP&C schedule each year is the Bluegrass Cycling Club, which has convened over Memorial Day week-end for more than twenty years to organize and host the Horsey Hundred bike race. About 2,000 guests flock to cam-pus from over twenty states and Canada to ride in various bike

races around the bluegrass. Bluegrass Cycling Club president Randy

Thomas praises the SP&C team. “Any successful partnership is dependent on people,” Thomas says.

Certainly the Georgetown campus is a “great location, but more than that, it’s how good they are to work with. They’re tremendous partners. I’ve always felt that they want us there, that they value and appreciate the relationship.”

Rick Bolus’ nationally recognized “Blue Chip” basketball camp organization also makes its summer home at GC. Since 1994, Blue Chip has brought an estimated 25,000 campers

from all over the country and the globe. This year’s camp brought young athletes from at least twenty states, Great

Britain, and Denmark.GC Men’s Basketball Coach Christopher Briggs hosts the Tiger Basketball Team Camp, the largest single residential camp of the summer. More than 800 participants stay on campus, with hundreds more commuting. “We get extremely positive feed-back on our camp from players, parents, spectators and coaches,” says Briggs, 2013 National Coach of the Year for NAIA Division I. “We come across students on campus and even people all over the

region and state who tell us they played in Georgetown’s team camp, sometimes last year and sometimes back in the ‘90s. And they pretty much all say they had a blast and loved it.” Many other Georgetown College athletic teams host camps during the summer as well, including Coach Andrea McCloskey’s Lady Tiger basket-ball team, Coach Bill Cronin’s foot-ball team, and Coach Derek Willis’ soccer team.

An exciting addition to this year’s summer camp season was the Governor’s School for

governor’sschool forentrepreneurs

GSE


Entrepreneurs. With the help and support of the GC adminis-tration, the SP&C crew worked hard to bring to fruition what LaRue now calls a “gift from God.” GSE is a highly competitive program for talented high school students interested in entrepreneurship and innovation. Highlights of the inaugu-ral year included visits from Governor Steve Beshear and John “Papa John” Schnatter.

“Georgetown summer camp staff was instrumental in helping us make sure our students had the ultimate experience while on campus,” said GSE executive director Laurie Daugherty. “Everyone at Georgetown went out of their way to make us feel at home and well cared for.”

LaRue calls the diversity of clients that come each summer the “camp palette.” Rounding out the spectrum were church, dance and academic groups. The campus hosted a missions group from

Smith Memorial Baptist Church in Williamsburg, VA and the Lincoln Avenue Baptist Church youth from Jacksonville, IL. The Kentucky Florists’ Association met here for a week. Dr. Roger Ward, chair of the Philosophy Department, hosted an academic conference for the Young Scholars in the Baptist Academy, while Dr. Rick Kopp and Dr. Jonathan Dickinson brought a group of math and science high school students to campus for two weeks of PAEMS (Pre-College Academic Experience in Math and Science). The Ed Davis Robotics camp was new this year to the college campus, as was Varsity Brand’s National Dance Alliance Camp.

LaRue and Gravitt are quick to point out that it takes the dedication of the entire campus community to keep GC’s Summer Programs and Camps running. The TWAG e-mails express gratitude for the faculty, staff and administrators who welcome guests to campus, but most especially to “the true stars of the campus community,” as LaRue calls them, “the unsung heroes:” maintenance, the grounds

crew, housekeeping, dining services, safety, and

everyone who serves in roles that care for the guests. This summer, about 7,000 camp-ers and guests kept housekeeping and dining services on their toes with over 13,000 nights in the dorms and 35,000 meals in the cafeteria or on the grounds.

GSE

This June, Georgetown

College was privileged to host the first-ever Governor’s School for Entrepreneurs, run by the Kentucky Science and Technology Corporation.

Nearly fifty high school students from all over Kentucky came to campus for a three-week, hands-on experience in the innovation and design of a sustainable business model.

In teams of five, students were mentored by faculty advisors and business coaches, visited with star

entrepreneurs like Papa John’s President

John Schnatter, and

pitched their plans to business owners. Participants were taught a “triple bottom line approach:” caring about profitability, social equity, and environmental conservation.

GSE 2014 will be June 22-July 12 at Georgetown College. Applications will be online in December and are due January 31, 2014. Faculty, team leaders, and resident advisors are also needed.

Dickinson receives Manning Award for teaching

Jonathan Dickinson, associate professor, now in his ninth year of teaching physics at Georgetown College, received the annual John Walker Manning Distinguished Mentor and Teaching Award from Provost Rosemary Allen at Opening Convocation for the 2013-2014 academic year.

One student who nominated Dr. Dickinson described his teaching style as “somewhat unorthodox, but effective,” said Provost Allen.

The award recognizes faculty who have shown a commitment to GC by their involve-ment in extracurricular activities and excellence in teaching.

Combined commencement begins in December

For the first time in recent memory, a December commencement will be held at Georgetown College starting this year.

The newly-added end-of-calendar-year ceremony combines undergraduate and graduate education degree conferral into a single 3 p.m. event on December 14. It will be held in John L. Hill Chapel. The combined ceremony enables December graduates to receive their degrees at the end of term and not have to wait several months.

Beginning in May, 2014, there will be two separate ceremonies. The traditional un-dergraduate degree conferral will continue at 10 a.m. on a Saturday. Graduate educa-tion degrees will be conferred at a new and separate 3 p.m. ceremony that same day.

There will no longer be graduate educa-tion commencement in August.

Campus-wide renovations, restoration, repairs made for an active summerBY | JIM ALLISON

It was a busy summer on campus for the college’s facilities and maintenance personnel, who undertook numerous renovation, restoration, repainting and repair projects in classroom buildings and residence halls as well as other campus locations.

While working around a summer camp schedule which brought several hun-dred young people to campus for intensive academic and athletic activities, 325 student dorm rooms were repainted.

With funds made available by a Brown Foundation grant, all hallways, rooms, and lobbies in Allen, Collier and Flowers were repainted; restrooms in the KA, KD, Lamb, Sigma, Pike, PHA, and Phi Tau houses were restored; three class-rooms in Cooke Memorial were repainted with new ceiling tile and lighting added; and the Great Hall outside the Montgomery Cafe in Cralle Student Center was repainted.

A grant from the Gheens Foundation along with alumni donations enabled the college to install a new gutter system on the iconic John L. Hill Chapel, along with restoration and repainting of its steeple, patching of the slate roof, and replacement of brick at the Jackson Street entrance. Other repairs will be made as funds become available. Alumni donations also funded the much-needed replacement of the roof on Davis-Reid Alumni Gym.

Students, faculty, and staff also now enjoy a refurbished workout area in the Bush Fitness Center that better utilizes available space. Thanks to a grant from Humana Foundation, there’s new rubberized flooring, fresh paint on interior walls and additional equipment that includes the introduction to campus of CrossFit, a strength and conditioning program which will benefit users at no additional cost to them.

Another completed project during the summer was renovation of The Store on the College Street level of Cralle Student Center. As part of that, approxi-mately 1,000 feet of former bookstore space was enclosed to establish a new, more centralized location for the Bishop College Center/Office of Diversity, the entrance to which is between the dining area we call the “WOW Grille” and doors into The Store.

1956John A. Parker is preparing for his fourth retirement having served as interim pastor of First Baptist Church of Micanopy, FL. “For four years, we served Micanopy Baptist during an especially trying time of losing their church building to a renegade group, meeting in the Town Hall of the city, and buying back the building that had been sold to a business man, from whom the church finally purchased it back. June 2 was Celebration Sunday, when the church moved back into the facility that had been First Baptist Church for over 60 years. Now the church is ready for a full time pastor and is experiencing good growth for a small town. Praise God from whom all blessings flow. Love to all, John Parker.”

Don Webb ‘63Don Webb, Sr. ‘63, prominent attorney and

visionary real estate developer, passed away July 19 at Baptist Health Lexington of complications from Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF).

Born in Hazard, Don was reared on a coal mining camp called Hot Spot near Whitesburg. He attended Whitesburg High School and Virginia Military Institute before entering Georgetown College. Don was a member of Kappa Alpha Order and served as president of Alpha Beta Pi and Young Democrats. He also was on the staff of The Georgetonian.

Following graduation, he married the former Julie Howser. He worked in the Department of Economic Development, then earned his JD in 1967 from the University of Kentucky College of Law. He was named a special assistant on the White House staff in Washington, D.C., where he was a legal advisor to the National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders.

Webb returned to Kentucky to practice law. He and his brother, Dudley ’65 formed a law partnership in Lexington and

founded Webb Companies, which changed the face of down-town Lexington with their office towers, specialty centers, and other projects. Webb Companies was the nation’s third largest diversified real estate developer in 1986. It developed real estate projects in more than 20 American cities.

In 1979, Don and Dudley Webb and Dr. Ed Nighbert, with 38 Lexington physicians, established the Lexington Surgery Center, one of the nation’s only free-standing outpatient surgery centers.

A 1987 profile in Building Design & Construction magazine described the Webb brothers’ success in impressive terms: “When you put it down on paper, the story of the Webb brothers of Lexington, Ky., reads like a contemporary Horatio Alger real estate success tale. It’s the kind of story that warms your heart, puts a smile on your face and makes you say, ‘Only in America.’”

Webb served on numerous boards and was chair of the Greater Lexington Chamber of Commerce, chair of the Fayette County Democratic Party, and chair of the American Cancer Society. He had been a director of the Kappa Alpha Order Education Foundation and was a UK Fellow.

Don Webb is survived by his wife, their son and daughter-in-law, grandson, granddaughter, his mother, brother, two sisters, and seven nieces and nephews.

Maxine Jones Clark ’36 Maxine Jones Clark ’36 died September 22 at the home of

her son, Ande ’64, in Nashville. While a student at Georgetown, she was involved in a

number of student activities and was chosen May Queen. Much of her career was dedicated to teaching at Paducah

Community College, where she taught from 1956 until her retirement in 1985.

At her request, her ashes will be scattered near the island of Oahu, Hawaii, where she spent several happy winters.

Dr. Bart Dickinson, professor Dr. Bart G. Dickinson, a retired Georgetown College profes-

sor and former chair of the Department of Math and Physics at the college, passed away November 7.

Born in Glasgow, KY, Dr. Dickinson was a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of the University of Kentucky. He completed his mas-ter of science degree from UK in 1966 and his Ph.D. degree in theoretical physics in 1970.

He was a member of Phi Mu Epsilon, the mathematics honor-ary, and Eta Kappa Nu, the electrical engineering honorary.

Dr. Dickinson joined the faculty of Georgetown College in 1968 and quickly became a campus favorite for his excellence in the classroom and gentle manner.

A member of First Christian Church, he served as an elder, sang in the choir, and was a Sunday school teacher.

He is survived by his wife, Suetta, four children, one grand-son, and four sisters. His son, Jonathan, is an associate profes-sor of math, physics, and computer science at Georgetown College.

Dr. Dickinson’s memorial service was November 10 at First Christian Church.

Frances Cisney ‘38Frances Knight Cisney ’38 passed away in

Greenville on September 27.Born in Greenville, she graduated from

Greenville High School and entered Georgetown College in 1934. Mrs. Cisney

participated in student government, Baptist Student Union, Maskrafters, the Women’s Athletic Association, and was a president of Sigma Kappa sorority.

A member of the Georgetown College Board of Trustees from 1974 - 1981, Mrs. Cisney was a lifetime member of the Georgetown College Woman’s Association. She and her late husband, Wayne, established a scholarship to encourage Muhlenberg County students to attend Georgetown College.

Mrs. Cisney’s father, L.B. Knight, provided the funding to name the lower level of John L. Hill Chapel Knight Hall in the early 1950s, as he did later for Knight Hall.

Mrs. Cisney served her local community in many ways. An active member of Greenville’s First Baptist Church, she taught Sunday School for 30 years and participated in the Girls Auxiliary,Young Women’s Association, Women’s Missionary Union,

Vacation Bible School, and the Joyful Sounds Choir.Granetta Blevins, former acting president of Georgetown

College, said, “Frances Cisney‘s devotion to Georgetown College is both inspiring and encouraging. Her devotion to her alma mater as a loyal alumna and faithful trustee leaves a rich and lasting legacy for all of us who love this school. I am grateful that Georgetown College was a part of Frances Cisney’s wonderful life.”

Mrs. Cisney is survived by her daughter, Martha, her sons, Lin (Ann) and Lucien (Barbara), four grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren. Expressions of sympathy may be made to Georgetown College or First Baptist Church, Greenville.
