Ten years...
I say often that we do what we do better than
anyone else. I know that is true.
Reinhardt is a university of relationships that offers such a unique combination of
challenge with support and encouragement. We have inexhaustible opportunities for
accomplishments and success, and we build self-confidence in our students for today
and tomorrow. We accept the challenge of faith and work to build from our values a
community of unity from our diversity. I am very proud of the community we have
nurtured. While it is easy to count buildings and programs, and each one of them is
vital, the true accomplishment of this wonderful place is its spirit.
I am very proud of our faculty.
Our faculty has brought together a spirit of creativity and imagination with a very
down-to-earth commitment to hard work. They have created learning opportunities that
are exciting and relevant. We remain committed to small class size because the teaching
and learning that occurs at Reinhardt is very personal. Our faculty members are masters
at teaching one-to-one — they teach not only the subject, but also the student.
I am very proud of our Trustees.
They lead this University with faith and commitment, and they are bound together
by an exciting view of Reinhardt’s future while they identify strongly with its traditions
and values.
Eight special alumni and friends were honored on this festive night.
I am very proud of our staff members.

We’re Growing!
Music...
“I encourage alumni and friends
to develop a special interest in
students at the University and
contribute time and finances.
They will find it to be especially
rewarding and very satisfying.”
Only 10 years ago...
Reinhardt had seven students majoring in music. By fall 2012,
Reinhardt will have almost 170 music majors and be the largest
music program at any private institution in Georgia. Contributions to this impressive growth include a new academic program,
highly experienced faculty, additional classroom space and dedicated
supporters and patrons. Reinhardt’s School of Music is growing, and to
meet the demands of this positive growth, a new program, five new faculty
and additional classroom space are being added this year.
New Academic Program: Musical Theatre
The music program will hit a high note in fall 2012 when the musical theatre program
takes the stage. As the only private university in Georgia to offer a degree in musical theatre,
Reinhardt will showcase the talent of more than 15 students this fall alone, with plans to grow
the program as the need increases each year. Faculty for the new program are already in place: Dr.
Tamara Harper will serve as director, while David Nisbet, director of the Reinhardt theater program, will also assist with musical theatre.
New Faculty
Students will soon be singing to the tune of a several new professors. Dr. Martha Shaw has been
appointed as a professor of music. She comes to Reinhardt from Shorter University, where she
served as professor of music and director of choral activities.
In 2008, she was honored with the President’s Award for Excellence in Teaching and
Scholarship. A specialist in vocal pedagogy for all ages, Shaw is active as a clinician and as a
guest conductor throughout the United States. A Cherokee County native, her 15 years of
experience as a public school music specialist
contribute significantly to her work.
In addition, Dr. Chuck Chandler and Dr.
Rebecca Salter, who were both assistant professors of music in voice at Shorter University, are
also coming to Reinhardt.

The Ken White Music Center is a welcome addition to the growing music program. The 4,000
square foot space connects with the west wing of
the Falany Performing Arts Center and includes
six faculty studios, eight practice rooms and a classroom. The public is invited to help dedicate the
Center on Oct. 6 at 3 p.m., during Alumni Day/Fall
Family Weekend.
“The Ken White Music Center will just about
double the space available for our School of Music,
and it would not have been available to us without the
generosity of Mr. White,” said Dr. J. Thomas Isherwood,
president. — LHT

Meet Donor and Loyal Alumnus Ken White 61
C. Kenneth “Ken” White is an ideal alumnus. He’s a successful
businessman who is loyal to and involved with his alma mater.
A Cherokee County native, he received an AA from Reinhardt
and a BBA from The University of Georgia. After working
for several years as a certified public accountant, he opened
Whitecrest Carpets, where he became well known in the carpet
industry. After 20 years, he sold this business and is currently
president of White Capital Group in Dalton, Ga.
He generously provides resources.
While he ran a carpet business, Reinhardt only had to call to
receive carpet for almost every building on the campus. He
has made extraordinary financial gifts to Reinhardt in athletics,
music and numerous other projects.
He gives of his time.
He joined the Reinhardt Board of Trustees in 1983. He is an
active member of the Membership, Student Affairs and Finance
committees, and he chairs the Investment Committee. He is
present at every Trustee meeting and rarely misses a Trustee
committee meeting. He has also served on numerous University committees, including the Presidential Search Committee,
Blue Ribbon Committee and Technology Committee.
He directly helps students.
Many softball and baseball players this year and in previous
years are at Reinhardt because of either his recommendation
or his financial support. He has also mentored students by
meeting with them, learning about their goals, and sharing
career advice. Ken shared why he was so passionate about his
alma mater.
RU: How do you see your role as a RU Trustee?
KW: The buck stops with us. We offer support, make policy
and become Reinhardt disciples in our community. I try to be
knowledgeable in order to make good decisions on behalf of students, faculty and staff.
RU: Why did you choose athletics and music as
two areas to support?
KW: Athletics presents an opportunity for financial support.
For instance, baseball and softball (two teams I enthusiastically
encourage) help fill dorms. The success of these and other athletic teams creates a good image for Reinhardt. As for music, I
believe the School of Music can be a shining star and an asset
for the recruitment of quality students.
RU: Why have you chosen to be so involved?
KW: Reinhardt provided an affordable opportunity for me to
attend college while living at home. When I was first invited
to be a Trustee, I was busy building my business and could not
be as involved as I wanted. When I sold the business, I found
more time to devote to the Board of Trustees and developed
a greater interest in the University as a whole. I care about
Reinhardt and the history of this school and want Reinhardt
to continue to grow and at the same time retain some of our
strong traditions.
RU: Why do you encourage others to
support Reinhardt?
KW: Reinhardt serves an educational niche by helping both
privileged and underprivileged students. Reinhardt welcomes
all with an open door by serving a diverse population. I encourage alumni and friends to develop a special interest in students
at the University and contribute time and finances. They will
find it to be especially rewarding and very satisfying. — JEW

Decade of Accomplishment
“There’s no doubt in my mind this institution has even
bigger accomplishments ahead. We’re not finished. We
are strongly committed to ‘what’s next?’ We have a lot
more to do, and I know we’ll do it.”
Reinhardt President Dr. J. Thomas “Tom” Isherwood (left) and Bettye Jo, his wife and
Reinhardt’s first lady, have served the University since July 2002.
In asking Tom and Bettye Jo Isherwood
for reflections on their tenure at Reinhardt, both smiled widely, but quickly
grew thoughtful.
“Talking about the last 10 years gives
us a wonderful opportunity to show how
much this University has changed, and
yet, how much it has stayed true to its
values and mission,” Dr. Isherwood said.
Mrs. Isherwood said they have benefited from “building upon those who
came before us, and it’s been inspirational to see the institution grow and
develop.”
Enrollment Growth
Athletic Expansion
»» from 1083 to 1300 students
»» from 13 to 18% minority
“This fall we expect to welcome almost
1300 students, which will include the largest freshman class in our history,” Dr. Isherwood said. “The increase in the number of
minority students is also a tremendous victory. Our enrollment growth is in response
to our quality undergraduate programs, as
well as the addition of well received programs aimed at graduate and nontraditional students.”
»» from 10 to 17 teams
“Part of the collegiate experience is sports,
whether you are playing or cheering from
the stands,” Dr. Isherwood said. “We want
to give opportunities for young people to
continue their interest in sports and to develop a lifelong passion for fitness.”
The Isherwoods enjoy Reinhardt athletics. “The games are so exciting, and everyone is looking forward to football,” Mrs.
Isherwood said. Football will begin practice
in 2012 and competition in 2013. Dr. Isherwood also mentioned the benefit of lighting the baseball and softball fields, which
expanded time for practice and games.
$35 Million Raised
Academic Depth and Scope
»» from 17 to more than 40 majors
»» from 54 to 73 full-time faculty
»» Graduate programs
»» Police Academy
»» Convocation of Artists & Scholars
“When I arrived, Reinhardt did not have
the program diversity we needed,” he said.
“Our program growth, as well as our offerings for working adults and graduate students, resulted from faculty creativity and
hard work. As we have added faculty, we
have focused on solid credentials, creativity
and experience. We have also emphasized
a commitment to teaching, mentoring,
community service and scholarship. Our
annual Convocation of Artists and Scholars
demonstrates the excellent work our students are doing.”
Name Change to
Reinhardt University
“The change reflected what our institution had already become in diversity
of programs and complexity,” Dr. Isherwood said. “The new name has been very
well accepted.”
4
“People identify with our mission and values, and even in very tough financial times,
they have supported us with what we need
to respond to our students,” Dr. Isherwood
said. “We work hard to spread the word
about Reinhardt, and we are thankful for
generous alumni and friends who believe in
our cause and give year after year.”
Community Outreach
Mrs. Isherwood has been very involved in
the Falany Performing Arts Center Advisory Board and has enjoyed seeing the Center fine tune concert offerings and become
a cultural destination. She also commends
the Funk Heritage Center for educating
and entertaining school children and history buffs from across the region.
19 New or Renovated Facilities
Over the years, Reinhardt added state-ofthe-art facilities and renovated its older
structures. “We will open four buildings
this fall, our much-needed Science Center
has been funded, and we are considering
adding another wing on the residence hall,”
Isherwood said.
Values and UM affiliation
Despite the tremendous changes, Dr. Isherwood doesn’t think Reinhardt’s commitment to values or its United Methodist affiliation has changed. “We do an excellent
job of communicating our values,” he said.
“There’s a strong sense of commitment and
tradition which is very important to me
and to this institution.”
Mrs. Isherwood appreciates the UM
affiliation and enjoys campus ministry
events. On the Day of Prayer, “I went out
on the front porch and found a brightly
colored card with a prayer for me,” she said.
“Things like that keep us mindful of our
connection to faith.”
Next on the agenda
“There’s no doubt in my mind this institution has even bigger accomplishments
ahead,” he said. “We are very, very successful at meeting our strategic goals, and
this focus has given us financial stability
at a time when many similar institutions
were struggling. We’re not finished. We are
strongly committed to ‘what’s next?’ We
have a lot more to do, and I know we’ll
do it.” — MSW

This symposium was the first in a series that will examine
the history, culture and environment of the Etowah Valley.
G. Richard Wright ’97 ‘05, a local history expert, explains
the antebellum industrial history.
“We are excited about telling little-known
and never-heard-before stories that will
dramatically reshape our understanding
of the development of this region.”

associate professor of middle grades education.
Etowah Valley Iron-Making and the Coming of the Civil War
was held at Reinhardt on March 30 and 31, 2012. It explored the
history of antebellum iron production and was very well received
by more than 100 attendees.
With support from the Reinhardt History Program, the Georgia Humanities Council and the National Endowment for the
Humanities and through appropriations from the Georgia General
Assembly, the event included historic ironwork tours in Bartow
County; a keynote address focused on Jacob and Moses Stroup,
key Etowah Valley furnace builders and iron makers; a lecture
about the Civil War coming to Etowah Valley; and a panel discussion. The event was coordinated by Assistant Professor of History
Philip J. Unger and Professor of History Dr. Kenneth H. Wheeler.
The 2nd annual symposium will be in the spring
of 2013. Please see reinhardt.edu for details.

Familiar Faces on TV & in the News
Police Academy Grads in the Spotlight
Three Reinhardt Police Academy
graduates, Officers Ryan Campbell,
Stephen Delman and Shane Smith,
were recently recognized for exceptional service in the line of duty.
Campbell helped save a life, and Delman and Smith rescued a man from a
burning home.
Police Academy graduates have also been featured in the cable
television shows Pit Bulls & Parolees on Animal Planet and Cell
Block 6: Female Lockup on The Learning Channel.
“Our graduates are working in all types of public safety positions. We have alumni employed by various law enforcement agencies across the state, including the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and the Georgia State Patrol. One of our first graduates was
recently selected for a SWAT team assignment,” Lester Drawdy,
Reinhardt’s Police Academy director, said. “Our graduates are landing jobs in their field. Out of our 155 grads, almost three-quarters
are now working in law enforcement. The employment rate will
continue to increase as our most recent graduates find jobs.”
The 6-month evening program combines college-level academic courses with practical hands-on learning, which differentiates
Reinhardt from other P.O.S.T. certified academies. Students complete the training requirements to become certified peace officers
in Georgia while also earning 15 semester hours of college credit
towards an associate’s degree in criminal justice.
New classes start in August, January and May. For more information, see reinhardt.edu/policeacademy. ––MSW
Reinhardt Adds Online
Degree Completion Programs
& Off Campus Site in Woodstock
To help working adults more easily complete their degrees,
Reinhardt is adding online programs and an off campus site.
The online degree completion program in criminal justice will
start classes in August 2012, with a new group of students
starting classes every 10 weeks. The online bachelor degree
completion program in health care adm inistration will be
offered online beginning in spring 2013.
In addition, the Master of Arts in Business Administration
will be offered at a new off campus site: the Chambers at City
Center at 8534 Main Street in downtown Woodstock, Ga.

Noble Foundation Grant Funds Repairs
at Funk Heritage Center
The Samuel Roberts Noble foundation, Inc., funded a grant to
remove and replace the shingle roofs on two historic cabins and
in the blacksmith shop in the Funk Heritage Center’s Appalachian Settlement.
Since opening in 1999, the Funk Heritage Center has welcomed more than 128,000 visitors, more than half of whom were
school children from 13 surrounding counties.
Dr. Joseph Kitchens, Center director, praised the Noble Foundation for their generous assistance. “The Appalachian Settlement,” he said, “is a central component for both historical and
environmental education programming. It is the educational platform for many of our school field trips, public events and other
programs including our annual Georgia History Timeline. More
than 2,300 students attended this living history program last fall.
While the museum is devoted primarily to the Southeastern Indians, the Settlement is essential to interpreting the Appalachian
frontier.” —MAH

Premiere Science Center
to be Ready for Fall 2013
Named for Loyal Alumni...
Hubbard Hall
Plans for the much-need science center are
shaping up nicely. The Woodruff Foundation,
together with gifts from friends and the George
Lawson estate, will finance the new facility.
The Hubbards have supported their alma
mater with their time, talents and treasure.
To recognize more than 70 years of dedication, Reinhardt has named the newest
residence hall in their honor.
Glenn and Marjorie Humphrey Hubbard ’36 ’37
The new science center will emphasize undergraduate scientific research. As Reinhardt expands its scientific instruction,
University planners can start to consider health professions
such as nursing and medical technology.
The $4.5 million science center will include four fully
equipped labs, three classrooms, various small spaces for student research and new faculty offices. Following its completion, the Samuel C. Dobbs Science Hall will be renovated.
“It’s inspiring to look back and see how this building project has come together.”
— Dr. J. Thomas Isherwood, Reinhardt President
The need was critical. Biology had become one of Reinhardt’s most
popular majors, and space was in short supply. Labs and lectures
were being taught in the same areas, which resulted in less effective
instruction. The strategic plan included a new science center, and
plans were being developed to add fully equipped labs, classrooms,
individual student research spaces and faculty offices. Samuel C.
Dobbs Science Hall would also be renovated. All that was needed
was the $4.5 million to fund the project.
Reinhardt President Dr. J. Thomas Isherwood and Advancement Vice President JoEllen Bell Wilson ,61 have spent the past
several years looking for interested donors. The George Lawson
Estate provided the initial $2 million. Reinhardt trustees and the
Northside Hospital Foundation pledged or donated almost $1
million. The Woodruff Foundation completed the needed funding
with a $1.5 million gift.
Isherwood recognizes the generous supporters who are making
this new science center possible. “It’s inspiring to look back and
see how this building project has come together. I’m thankful to
George Lawson for believing in Reinhardt and putting us in his
will. And to the two foundations for agreeing to help us meet this
need. And to our trustees Nancy Simms, Billy Hasty, Billy Hayes,
8
Deborah Marlowe and several anonymous donors. Because of all
this support, Reinhardt will have a premier science building by the
fall of 2013.”
Science faculty members are looking forward to having additional space designed to meet their needs. Assistant Professor of
Biology Dr. Irma Santoro said the new science center “will allow
us... to finally undertake laboratory experiments that we have not
been able to do because of very little space... We will finally be able
to separate lab and lecture so that we can set up for the lab prior to
the class. This will allow us to incorporate more involved labs into
the curriculum.”
Assistant Professor of Biology Zachary Felix agrees. “With the
new building, we will have more lecture rooms and a dedicated
lab space for each area in biology, which will make instruction so
much more efficient. And, maybe more important, we will get an
infusion of updated equipment. Biology, particularly the areas of
molecular biology and microbiology, are moving so quickly, and
the equipment we have needs to be improved.”
Plans call for construction to start in fall 2012 so the building
can be ready to welcome students for fall 2013. — MSW

I met Glenn and Marjorie Humphrey Hubbard ’36 ’37 in
the early 1990s when I began working as Reinhardt’s alumni
director, said JoEllen Bell Wilson ’61. They were cochairing
a fund raising effort by the Classes of 1934 to 1938. They
wrote letters, called friends and ultimately raised more than
$200,000 to build the Bratton Carillon, named for the president of Reinhardt while they were students. Their efforts also
established the Bratton Scholarship Fund.
Marjorie was born in Ball Ground, Ga., in 1916. (She’s
a young 96-year-old and doesn’t mind that I tell her age!)
She came to Reinhardt in 1935 and lived in a private home
in Waleska while attending classes. After graduating in
1937, she taught for a year at the Etowah School and then
moved to Woodstock to teach at the New Bethel School.
She became reacquainted with a fellow teacher, Glenn
Hubbard, Reinhardt Class of 1936. They courted and then
married in 1940.
During World War II, Glenn went to work for Bell Aircraft Corporation. After the war, he returned to teaching,
but in 1950, he started a career in accounting. He worked
in that field until he retired in 1980. He passed away in
January 2002.
Marjorie, a life-long educator, retired from Woodstock
Elementary School in the early 1970s.
The Hubbards have one daughter, Elaine, who retired as
a mathematics professor from Kennesaw State University in
2003. When the Hubbards were honored at the 2012 Talon
Awards Gala, Elaine accepted the plaque commemorating
the name of Reinhardt’s newest residence hall. (see p. 26)
The Hubbards’ support earned them the 2003 Reinhardt Alumni Loyalty Award. Marjorie makes an annual
gift in her husband’s memory to benefit Reinhardt students,
and Reinhardt is a beneficiary of their will.
To recognize these gifts, and to thank the Hubbards
for more than 70 years of dedication to their alma mater, Reinhardt Trustees have named the newest residence
hall the Glenn H. and Marjorie Humphrey Hubbard Residence Hall.
“I’m looking forward to gathering with Reinhardt
alumni, students, parents and friends for the grand opening
of this fine building on Alumni Day, Oct. 6, 2012,” Wilson
said. “It’s sure to be a fine occasion.” — JEW

Generations of Love for Education
Tippens Memorial Endowment Fund
It was a love story
that began a century ago. In January
1910, Mamie Cleo Cagle and Charles Monroe Tippens met in a
one room school house called Sandy Plains. He was 21 years old
and the “new” teacher for the school, and she was 16 years old, an
older seventh grader anxious to learn. When school let out in June
1911, Monore wrote to Cleo telling her he would like to see all
of his students, but her most of all. As she’d had her eyes on him
too throughout the year, they began to date and were married on
December 24, 1911.
They raised a family of six girls and one boy: Willie B, Annie
D, LeRoy, Ruth, Margaret, Marjorie and Betty. The descendants of
Monroe and Cleo have been the primary beneficiaries of their de-
Field House, Field, Hubbard Hall, Ken White Music
Center, Eagle Statue, Education Classrooms
To get ready for more students, programs and football, the Campus has buzzed
with construction. The new turf field is complete, Hubbard Residence Hall and
the Ken White Music Center will be ready for fall classes, and the Athletic Field
House will open in mid-September. The bottom floor of Paul Jones has been converted to education classrooms, and alumni and students have enjoyed posing by
the new Eagle Statue next to the Hasty Student Life Center. See p. 3, 9 & 35.
Academic Excellence, New Programs & Locations
The Convocation of Artists and Scholars continued to grow in awareness and participation. Reinhardt launched a Master of Education in Early Childhood Education
and added a new site in Woodstock, Ga. Reinhardt’s first online programs, a degree
completion program in criminal justice, was approved to launch in fall 2012, and an
online degree completion program in healthcare administration will start in Spring
2013. A Master of Public Administration with a criminal justice concentration is in
the final approval stages; it is scheduled to start in spring 2013.
Supports Alma Mater with Time, Treasure
“The benefits and opportunities that Reinhardt gives
students come in many shapes and sizes, however,
without these gracious people giving of their time,
talents, and financial contributions, those opportunities
that I was offered wouldn’t be available.”
Music Program Growth; Addition of Musical Theatre
Due to energetic recruiting, a more widely known reputation, and an increasing
number of incredibly talented students and faculty, Reinhardt’s music program has
grown substantially. A new degree in musical theater has been added, and a new
music facility designed, funded and constructed. As a result, Reinhardt will have
the largest private music program in the state of Georgia. See p. 4 & 5 for more.
— Ryan Satterfield ’95
When Ryan Satterfield stepped onto Reinhardt’s campus in the fall
of 1991, he didn’t know what his future would hold, but he knew
he had found a second home. For more than a decade, he has been
a constant champion for Reinhardt, unchanging in his commitment to help other students receive the same opportunities he did.
“It didn’t take me long to realize that Reinhardt was going to
be a special place for me,” remembers Satterfield, a 1995 graduate.
“I immediately became involved in the campus community, both
socially and academically, and the benefits that both of those gave
me paved the way for many more opportunities later in life.”
After graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, Satterfield spent the next three years working in Reinhardt’s Office of Admissions. It was during this time that he began
to see the need for philanthropy.
“I witnessed on a daily basis the impact that giving back had on
our student body and our campus as a whole,” he said. “The benefits and opportunities that Reinhardt gives students come in many
shapes and sizes, however, without these gracious people giving of

“Despite a very challenging economy, this has been a year of
exceptional excitement, energy and activity,” said Reinhardt
President Dr. J. Thomas Isherwood. “Reinhardt University
is the most dynamic institution of learning in Georgia.”
votion to education, and now account for more than 50 bachelors
degrees, 25 masters degrees, and 13 doctoral degrees. To date, 12
of their descendants have attended Reinhardt.
As education, and Reinhardt as well, has been in the forefront
of this family’s existence for the last century, Margaret Tippens
Dobson has established an endowment in her parents memory. The
Charles Monroe & Mamie Cleo Tippens Memorial Endowment
Fund will provide scholarships for deserving students.
“Reinhardt has played a major role in the educational background of my family,” said Margaret’s son, Jeffrey. “What better
way for my mother to honor that heritage than establish an endowment in honor of her parents, the founding members of our
family.”— LHT

their time, talents, and financial contributions, those opportunities
that I was offered wouldn’t be available.”
Satterfield has pursued a career in education and this fall will
begin a new role as an assistant principal at Woodland Middle
School in Bartow County, Ga., but he is still consistently doing his
part to continue the Reinhardt experience. He not only has been
a member of the 1883 Club, a giving society that gives a continual $18.83 a month, he also volunteers his time on the Reinhardt
Alumni Board of Governors.
Satterfield urges his fellow alumni to join him in supporting
the students of Reinhardt. “I would encourage alumni to do whatever they can and feel comfortable doing. In some cases, that may
mean simply telling their Reinhardt story. If you are looking for
an easy way to give financially, the 1883 Club would be a great fit.
If volunteering is something you want to do, contact the Alumni
Office, volunteers are always needed. Regardless of what type of
efforts you are willing to give, I can assure you it will be put to
helping the mission of Reinhardt.” — EPH
Are You Ready for Football?
The eight-person coaching staff is in place. The turf field and
athletic field house are on track. Recruiting has been
very successful, and more than 130 football players
are ready to begin practice this fall. Reinhardt
football has been accepted to compete in
the Mid-South Conference and will begin
intercollegiate competition during fall 2013.
Reinhardt now fields 17 scholarship athletic
teams. Almost 25 percent of the student
population plays an intercollegiate sport.

Looking Ahead: The 3rd Talon Awards Gala will be in March 2013.
Blessed with Ideals True
Watch www.reinhardt.edu for exact date and honorees.
I can never adequately express how much I value my
Reinhardt education... I think what I value most is the
Christian atmosphere and the moral values and principles
instilled in me which have guided me all my life.

I am 94 years old. I graduated from Reinhardt College (now University) in 1936.
My mother graduated in 1906. She and
my father bought a house directly across
the street from Reinhardt to provide an
education for their seven children. All of us
attended, and five of us graduated. Our
family was born and bred Reinhardt.
Remembering the Alma Mater

Recently I had a dream. I was trying to recall the words to Reinhardt’s alma mater. I
awoke singing it and was able to finish it
except for one word. I got online to check
how accurate I was. It was verbatim, and
the word I had left out was “influence.”
Adding that made it complete. Thinking
how I now cannot remember what happened yesterday, I was proud of remembering something from 76 years ago!
It amazed me that as I sang, I felt the
same pride I felt when attending. Nothing
had changed but actually had heightened
as I began to recall the many benefits of
my education.

Aside from splendid scholastic instruction,
there were beneficial extra-curricular activities. Sports were important, both intercollegiate and intramural, and women were
active participants. Athletics were considered “wholesome… and very essential to
the best mental and moral, as well as physical, development.” I played on the women’s
basketball team. To lead our team, we had
a “big captain” and “little captain.” I played
all the time as little captain. I loved the
sport, the rivalry and being a team member.

Brian Frey ’10:
A Hands-On Future
At Reinhardt, Brian Frey ’10 liked that he
could be hands-on when doing projects in
his communication classes, and he’s taken
those experiences to the next level. His
senior thesis project
from Reinhardt didn’t
just sit in a portfolio
in a closet, it is now
an award-winning creation that will soon be
used all over the world.
Frey developed the
smart phone and tablet apps BrailleTouch
and BrailleTeach for
use by the blind.
“When I was first in college in the early 90s, I played a text-based game, similar to World of Warcraft. I had more fun
building on that game and making new
places for people to go, and it was good
practice coding. Once games with graphics became more prevalent, the text-based
games were, however, still popular with
the blind. Since I still enjoyed these types
of games too, I became friends with several blind people. It gave me such a strong
interest then to help this population, and I
turned it in my mind and made these apps
for the blind.”
In fall 2011, Frey’s creation BrailleTouch won first place in the design competition at the 13th International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction
with Mobile Devices and Services held
in Stockholm, Sweden. He worked with
a team of Georgia Tech developers to
further the project he had originally started at Reinhardt.
BrailleTeach will be a free app available
for “teaching” braille, but BrailleTouch
will have a minimal cost and can be used
as the keyboard on the smartphone.
“The difference in our apps from others already out there, is that ours is eyesfree text entry in which
you turn the device away
from you and imagine
you are looking ‘through
the device.’”
Frey credits the professors and adjunct faculty
at Reinhardt for being
the positive examples he
needed to get where he
his today.
“The biggest thing I
got at Reinhardt was that the faculty was
so approachable and so real, that I knew
I could be that successful one day, too. I
went to a really large university the first
time around, and the faculty were never
around and were too busy, so now that I
had all these faculty around wanting to
help, I knew Reinhardt was the experience
I needed to build the foundation for my
future endeavors.”
Currently in the Ph.D. program at the
University of Maryland, Baltimore County, Frey encourages his fellow Reinhardt

National Championships in May 2012 after receiving an individual at-large bid for
the second consecutive year. As a freshman in 2010, he competed with his Eagles
teammates when Reinhardt qualified as a
team after winning the Appalachian Athletic Conference Tournament championship.
Playing at Creekside Golf Club in Salem, Ore., Lindsey shot a three-day, 54-hole
total of 11-over-par 227 at the 2012 NAIA
national tournament, missing the cut for
the final round by just one stroke. His best
18-hole score in nine career rounds at the
NAIA nationals came on his final day of
competition when he fired a 1-over-par 73.
Lindsey, from Kennesaw, Ga., has
earned All-AAC honors the past three years
and was an NAIA First Team All-American as a sophomore. In 11 events and 25
rounds during the 2011-12 season, he shot

Football Update: Up and Running
Reinhardt’s inaugural
football program is up
and running. The coaches

field to practice this fall.
Intercollegiate competition
begins in fall 2013.
Perfect Goals!
Women’s soccer

Senior starter Chelsa Hise plays the ball down the field during a game last season.
Reinhardt’s football coaching staff includes Ryan Anderson, (back, from left), Rusty
Wright, Larry Prather, and Tony Tiller, and Will Heath (front, from left), Reggie Perkins,
Danny Cronic and Drew Cronic.
First on head coach Danny Cronic’s agenda
was to recruit a diverse, experienced coaching staff. Defensive coordinator Rusty
Wright and receivers coach Will Heath
were the first hires, then he added his son
Drew Cronic as offensive coordinator, Ryan
Anderson as linebackers coach and Larry
Prather as an assistant to help with the offensive line. Tony Tiller and Reggie Perkins
came on board to coach the defensive backs
and offensive linemen, respectively.
“I think having a full, complete staff
gave us some credibility,” Danny Cronic
said. “They are all doing a very good job of
recruiting in their areas.

“I think recruits coming in and seeing the diversity and the
quality of our coaching staff has made a difference. It shows
that Reinhardt has made a real commitment to football.” — Head Coach Danny Cronic
“By National Signing Day [Feb. 1], we
had not completed our coaching staff; however, since the middle of February we’ve
signed over 100 players. “I think recruits
coming in and seeing the diversity and the
quality of our coaching staff has made a difference. It shows that Reinhardt has made a
real commitment to football.”
The vast majority of players are from
Georgia, but some are from Alabama, Florida and Tennessee. “When we started signing the good players, it gave us credibility
with other kids. Everybody likes to have
other good players around them.”
Football Conference Affiliation
Though most of Reinhardt’s teams compete
in the Appalachian Athletic Conference,
that conference doesn’t sponsor football
because most of its members do not field
the sport. Thus, Reinhardt was accepted
as an associate member of the Mid-South
Conference, MSC, for football.
Future MSC opponents include Belhaven, Bethel, Campbellsville, Cumberland, Faulkner, Kentucky Christian, Bluefield, Georgetown (Ky.), Cumberlands,
Lindsey Wilson, Pikeville, Union (Ky.) and

In 2011, Reinhardt’s women’s soccer team
enjoyed its best season in the 11-year history of the program. The Lady Eagles won
the Appalachian Athletic Conference regular season championship with a perfect 7-0
record and went on to finish 14-4-2 overall.
Along the way, Reinhardt earned the AAC
Tournament title and the school’s first-ever
berth to the NAIA national event, where
the Lady Eagles suffered a respectable firstround loss to Lee University, which went
on to earn its fourth straight NAIA national crown.
Under AAC Coach-of-the-Year Andy
