Celebrating 150 Years of Faith, Wisdom and Service
Stories of seven Huntingdon people who apply faith and wisdom in service,

Message
From the President
I told our students and families during
the Presidential Convocation this fall that
Huntingdon College is a college under
construction. There’s an excitement about
what’s happening on campus as I make my
way around town – people want to know
what’s going on here.
Of course, Huntingdon College has
always been “under construction.” Only in
1935 did Huntingdon become Huntingdon –
81 years after the College’s founding – when
our Trustees renamed us Huntingdon College
after Selina, Countess of Huntingdon, supporter
of the Methodist spiritual movement in 18th century England. “Huntingdon” sounds
collegiate. Saying the word, “Huntingdon,” summons up crisp, late fall nights;
spirited classroom debates; the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat.
This academic year is the first in the College’s history with more men enrolled
than women – 330 full-time men and 300 full-time women. There was a time when
men were not welcome here. Only in 1934, the College’s 80th year, did men appear
on campus as students. Only in the College’s 92nd year, in 1946, when millions of
World War II veterans were beating down the doors of colleges and were being paid
by the federal government to go to college, did Huntingdon officially become coeducational. Only in 1954, the College’s 100th birthday, were men admitted as residential students.
There was also a time, not very long ago, when the Cloverdale Campus was
a junior high school. Now our students attend classes in a full range of academic
disciplines, act in theatrical productions, and play intercollegiate volleyball and
football there.
We are, indeed – and have always been – under construction. Today is but the
latest chapter in a long, long story.
What makes the building of a college so exciting is the construction of the
minds and hearts of the college’s students. It’s the hallmark of the Methodist tradition
of higher education. It’s what Huntingdon College is all about. It is the job of those
of us who work in these offices, and teach in these classrooms and on these playing
fields, to fashion young people into persons of solid, authentic integrity.
The stakes are high. Indeed, what is at stake in the building of students’ lives
is the very well-being of our society. In fact, there has never been a more important
time to be young and under construction than right now. These years are crucial, not
only for our students, but also for the communities in which they will live and
practice medicine or law, coach or teach or preach, serve as accountants or bankers,
or represent your neighbors’ best interests in the state legislature.
The lives under construction on this campus will make a difference. In that
light, I ask your prayers and your support for this collegium – scholars, teachers, and
learners engaged in the holy task of forming men and women of integrity who will
one day share the Huntingdon legacy of faith, wisdom, and service with new
generations.
Faithfully your president,
J. Cameron West

FAITH, WISDOM, AND SERVICE
C
Certainly, in a 150-year legacy, there are hundreds – if not thousands – of people who have
been associated with Huntingdon College whose outward expression of their depth of faith,
breadth of wisdom, and reach of service is inspirational. Here are just seven of those people.

Serving at Center Stage
Su Ofe
It is March, 2004, the Mr. Huntingdon
competition – known as one of the more raucous
events at Huntingdon. The spotlight is directed at the
Chapel’s center stage, where a young man raises his
guitar to play. The boisterous crowd quiets.
“Tell me all your thoughts on God,” he sings in
his rendition of a song by Dishwalla, “’cause I’d really
like to meet her. Ask her why we’re who we are …” As his
performance ends, the crowd in the Chapel erupts.
Meet John Thornhill ’06, Mr. Huntingdon 2004.
Huntingdon has many students who are
blessed with intellectual gifts, whose talents are broad,
who answer every call to serve, and who are deeply
committed to living lives of faith. John embodies all of
those ideals.
It was Dave Barkalow ’03, now director of campus ministries at Huntingdon, whom John
credits with answering his faith questions and inspiring him to serve. They met at a youth group
meeting when Dave was the youth minister at Capitol Heights United Methodist Church. Shortly
after that, John stepped in as worship leader, and has since led services for Capitol Heights,
Asbury, St. Luke, and First of Opp, Prattville, and Montgomery United Methodist Churches. John
also served as youth minister at the Korean UMC in Montgomery for six months.
With his long, curly brown hair and compassionate eyes, he has been a natural to play
Jesus during the Palm Sunday services at First UMC of Montgomery. This fall, he plays the Jesus
character in Huntingdon’s production of Cotton Patch Gospel, and serves as music director for the
play as well. He often performs at the House of Java in Prattville, following in the footsteps of his
father, Rob Thornhill, a counselor by day and a musician at night. John’s mother is Huntingdon
alumna Cindy Rose Thornhill ’90. John remembers being a small child when she graduated.
For John, life is personal; that’s one of the reasons why he says Huntingdon was the perfect
choice for his college experience. He values friendships and relationships, one-on-one conversations, and grappling for nuggets of truth, all of which he has found are a daily part of a
Huntingdon education. “Huntingdon is about the people – really pulling together,” he says. “You
don’t just make friends at Huntingdon, you make companions.”
The power of those connections was reinforced at a time of personal tragedy. While on a
Jan-Term trip in the wilderness, John got the news that his cousin and best friend, a police officer,
had been killed during a training exercise. “Dr. Gier and Dr. Tubbs listened and talked with me all
the way back. I talked with them like they were friends, not like they were faculty. I respected that
so much. I haven’t met a faculty member yet that isn’t in some way positively influential to
students. We have it good here.”
John’s Huntingdon experience has fulfilled a number of his dreams and goals. “I had three
personal goals when I came to college that went beyond getting a great education: to meet the love
of my life, to be in a play, and to be in a movie. I ended up doing all of those things by the end of
my freshman year.” He was cast opposite his now-fiancé, Robin Steele ’05, in Two Gentlemen of
Verona, and he had a role as an extra in Big Fish, the Tim Burton movie that was made here in
Montgomery, largely on the Huntingdon campus.
Given his passion for performing, one would expect John to major in music or theater, but
John is a biology major who intends to become a chiropractor. “I’m not stressed about what I’m
supposed to do with my life. I love to do so many different things, and I want to be good at all of
them. Everyone who is daring enough to believe in their own potential can achieve things far
greater than they ever imagined, and that’s by God’s grace.”

The Call to Teach
The Reverend Dr. Frank Buckner, Chapman Benson Professor of Christian Faith
and Philosophy, says teaching is a calling and an extension of his ministry.
“I always try to be academically honest with my
students, and be as open and forthright as I can be in
terms of what is expected of them in the classroom,” says
then the challenge is to get that sort of completeness to
the student.”

A LEGACY
& A LEGEND
Archives
The Reverend Dr. John Ed Mathison ’60, senior minister of Frazer Memorial United Methodist Church,
Montgomery, may be the best-known United Methodist minister in the country.
Sir Winston Churchill
once said, “We make a
living by what we get;
we make a life by what
we give.” If that is
true, The Reverend Dr.
John Ed Mathison ’60
has made a life beyond
measure, by giving his
life to the service of
others.
He learned his commitment beginning at the
cradle from his father, The Reverend Marion C. “Si”
Mathison ’49, one of the best known and most-loved
ministers in the Alabama-West Florida Conference of The
United Methodist Church. Dr. Mathison soon followed in
his father’s footsteps, beginning his formal walk in ministry at age 16. “In those days all you had to do was read
a couple of books and they gave you a license,” he chuckles. Now, four years from mandatory retirement at age 70,
this wise and seasoned pastor may be the best-known
United Methodist minister in the country.
He came to Huntingdon College in
1958, transferring in at the junior level
from Young Harris College to be part of
the first basketball team in College history, and to play under legendary Coach
Neal Posey. He was also a member of the
tennis team, losing only one match in
two years. Open a 1958-59 or 1959-60
yearbook, and John Ed Mathison’s image
is everywhere, in clubs and organizations, athletics, and service groups.
During his senior year, he served as student government president – the first male to run and
win the post. Off campus, he served as pastor of two
churches during his senior year, at Pike Road and
Woodland United Methodist Churches.
After graduating, he completed a divinity degree at
Candler School of Theology, Emory University, and a
Master of Theology at Princeton University. He served as
associate minister at Capitol Heights United Methodist
Church and as minister at South Brookley Methodist
Church in Mobile and Trinity United Methodist Church in
Phenix City before settling at Frazer Memorial United
Methodist Church, Montgomery, in 1972. He subsequently
completed his doctorate through Emory.
During Mathison’s 32 years, Frazer has grown
from 400 members to 8000 members, one of the top five
in membership size in the United States, and boasting the
largest Sunday School attendance of any United Methodist
Church in the country. “We’ve had good, steady growth –
we usually net between 200 and 400 new members each
year,” he says, adding that the church is having its best
membership increase ever this year. Each Sunday, there are
seven morning worship services from which to choose. And
for those who can’t make it to the church, services are cybercast on the Web and broadcast on cable television nationally
and on WSFA (NBC) and Frazer’s own station locally.
The Frazer congregation is a reflection of their
senior minister’s dedication, spirit, and leadership. Behind
his kind eyes is a mind that is always thinking, and behind
his calm demeanor is a natural instinct toward action.
There is an understood commitment that each congregant
will serve somewhere in the life of the church. “Our
emphasis is in mobilizing laity,” says Dr. Mathison. “About
90% of our congregation is involved in a ministry here
because we expect them to serve and we train and enable
them to do so.”
The menu of ministries at Frazer is a veritable
smorgasbord. Virtually every group, from babies through
senior citizens, has its own ministry focus. For special
interests, a growing English as a Second Language program, a Hispanic ministry, men’s and women’s workplace
ministries, and Celebrate Recovery, for those who have
overcome addictions or adverse behaviors, are a few
examples of the church’s outreach programs.
Frazer staff members also answer the call to serve,
providing more dollars than all other church staffs
combined to the annual United Way Campaign, for which
Frazer is a Pace-setter institution. Dr. Mathison serves on
the Metro Board for the YMCA and on the National Board
for Fellowship of Christian Athletes, which he calls, “one of
the most effective organizations with youth outside of the
local church.” The Salvation Army, the STEP Foundation,
and Partners in Education are other favorite causes. This
year, the church gave $2.7 million, more than a third of its
budget, to missions both local and abroad.
Beyond every other factor, it is this minister’s tireless service that has built his legacy. He is a seminar
speaker for the Billy Graham Training Center at The Cove,
and is the author of four books and numerous articles for
religious periodicals.
Dr. Mathison says his mentor and life-teacher is his
father, who, at the age of 94, still preaches somewhere in
the Alabama-West Florida Conference every weekend. The
two share ministry experience with John Ed’s younger
brother, The Reverend George Mathison ’67, senior minister at Auburn United Methodist Church and a former
member of the Board of Trustees at Huntingdon. Combined,
the three have devoted more than 150 years to United
Methodist ministry in the Alabama-West Florida Conference.
Their story goes beyond a legacy – it is a legend.

Clothed in Faith
Kim Bullard ’99 and Kate’s Closet have clothed more than 260 women for
roles in society since the clothing ministry began. The ministry provides up to
six professional outfits for women who are reentering the workforce after
serving time at Tutwiler Prison.
The Bullard family represents a
long Huntingdon ancestry, dating
back to The Reverend J.B.
Cumming, who served on the
committee to select the location
when the College moved to
Montgomery from Tuskegee in
1909, and including Mary Ellen
Bullard (Dr. Harrell Bullard’s
mother), who headed a continuing
education initiative for UMC ministry at the College for nine years.
“It’s been the biggest God thing I’ve ever seen in my life,” says Kim Bullard ’99,
marveling about the miracles of the ministry she oversees. “I keep getting in the
middle of it, but I don’t want it to be about me. I want this to glorify Him.”
Standing in the trendy boutique atmosphere of Kate’s Closet, the apricot walls
and chartreuse shelves seem to wink back at her as if there is a special secret here. It’s
a secret that is known to many, since the story of Kate’s Closet has been covered on
UMTV, in the national periodicals Today’s Christian Woman and Good News Magazine,
and in Chuck Colson’s newspaper, The Insider. It’s a secret that has traveled to
Washington, D.C., where Kim was selected for the honor, the national Daily Point of
Light Award, August 2. And it’s a secret known to the women of Julia B. Tutwiler
Prison.
Tucked inside The Rock House at St. James United Methodist Church,
Montgomery, Kate’s Closet is a clothing ministry with a twist, fulfilling a great need in
a community where the needs are great. The ministry is a gift of love to women who
have been incarcerated at Tutwiler and who are nearing parole. In preparation, they are
part of the Life Tech program, which includes character training, job interviewing and
resume development skills, and skills for coping with life’s demands.
The women come to Kate’s Closet about a week before they graduate from Life
Tech, and walk away with arms and hearts full of gifts – both material and spiritual.
The material gifts include six outfits for a working wardrobe and accessories to match,
a basket full of products for pampering and personal hygiene, and a New Testament
10
especially written for those who have been incarcerated –
all free of charge. The spiritual gifts are those found in the
power of prayer and encouragement.
Kim was moved to begin Kate’s Closet after hearing
Kate Richardson, of Project Reconnect, a program within Aid
to Inmate Mothers (AIM), speak to her missions group at St.
James. Kate’s life story made Kim want to make a difference
in the lives of those facing the trauma of reconnecting with society after being incarcerated. The ministry began by offering gift baskets filled with personal hygiene products, which were delivered to the prison and given to each inmate as she was set free.
But Kim and others wanted to take their ministry a step further. They solicited
previously-loved clothing suitable for office environments and accessories to outfit
working women. Then they set up a clothing shop in a barn outside the newly-built
St. James Church facility; the shop has since moved to a vacant home nearby. “We
make it look and feel just like a boutique. When the women come in here, we treat
them just like they are customers at Bloomingdale’s. We ask no questions about their
pasts. We want to ensure that they don’t feel judged.” Kim partnered with AIM to

bring the women to the facility in small groups. Each upcoming Life Tech graduate is
paired with a personal “shopping” assistant, a volunteer from the church. “We love on
them, support them, tell them how beautiful they look, help them pick out their
clothes and accessories, fix their makeup – and we pray with them. We let them
know that these gifts are from God. We’re just vessels. We ask them to use what has
happened to them, both in their pasts and through this ministry, to glorify God.”
Kim, a native of Nashville, Tennessee, met her husband, Montgomery dentist
Dr. Harrell Bullard, on a blind date. They have two children, the first of whom was
born during Kim’s attendance at Huntingdon, as she returned to college to complete
the degree she had not completed earlier in life. Their youngest daughter was born
one week after she graduated, completing majors in history and art.
Founded in 2002, Kate’s Closet served about 100 women during each of its
first two years. Since August, the ministry has already served more than 60 women.
“God always provides. We never run out of clothing or baskets or Bibles. Even when
we are surprised by visitors we didn’t expect, God makes sure we have enough,”
says Kim.
The ministry is making a lasting difference in the former inmates’
lives and in the community. The recidivism rate is low among the

POINTS OF LIGHT and then some
During the 150 years of Huntingdon College’s service as a member of the higher education community,
thousands of individuals have been part of the College’s legacy. From those who have taught to those who have cleaned,
from those who have learned to those who have managed, the College’s reach has been immense, and the touch of those
who have left their mark has been immeasurable.
When the Sesquicentennial Committee launched the 150 Points of Light initiative, it was our hope to uncover
the 150 people who had, in our judgment, done much to advance the College, whether by service on campus or in their
communities, by encouraging students to attend the College, by their financial support, by their actions or decisions that
sustained the life of the College, or by inspiring others to “go forth to apply wisdom in service.”
We received from some heartfelt nominations written in pages of prose. From others, we received lists of names
without a hint of what the nominees did. Even from those whose history with the College was long, few nominations
came in for those who had been part of the College more than 50 years ago. What about all of those people in the
College’s first 100 years, we said. What about all of the people in the last 50 years who weren’t nominated but who
deserve to be honored?
In the end, this initiative created a task that was impossible to accomplish. We learned that there is no way to

College “Adopts” a Florida Elementary School
President West and
members of his First
Year Experience class
write notes to the
children at Oakcrest
Elementary School in
Pensacola, FL.
Oakcrest Elementary School, serving grades pre-K-5,
in Pensacola, Florida, hasn’t gotten much media attention
since Hurricane Ivan. It is just one of the many schools
that sustained damage during the hurricane, and the
Oakcrest students are among some of the many thousands
in Pensacola who lost their homes or property during the
storm. But for poor families, replacing even the little things
is a struggle. When classes resumed in late October after a
four-week respite, many Oakcrest students had no school
supplies.
As the service project for this year’s First Year
Experience (FYEx) program, Dr. Maureen Kendrick
Murphy ’78, director of the FYEx program and associate
dean for academic affairs, knew Huntingdon could help.
“We didn’t have to go out seeking what our service project
would be this year,” said Murphy. “It came to us because of
how close to home this storm hit. An alumna, Terri
Turman Tuley ’79, who teaches in the Escambia County
School System, helped us to identify this particular
school.”
Su Ofe
College collects and distributes school supplies for disadvantaged students as school reopens after Hurricane Ivan
Each of the College’s 22 sections of FYEx has adopted
an Oakcrest classroom. Each section filled a “Classroom
Assistance Basket” (CAB) for their classroom, then sat
down and wrote postcards for each child and for the
teacher. College offices, departments, and residence hall
floors were encouraged to adopt the remaining 10 of
Oakcrest’s 32 classrooms. In addition, Houghton Memorial
Library collected books for Oakcrest’s library.
“This isn’t just a one-time-only service project,” said
Murphy. “We want the students to follow their classrooms
through the year. Service is a huge part of the Huntingdon
educational experience, and we want our students to see
the impact of this project for the lives of the students they
touch, as well as for their own lives. After all, our motto is,
‘Enter to Grow in Wisdom, Go Forth to Apply Wisdom in
Service.’ ”
Huntingdon has been awarded a $25,000 grant from the Alabama Council
for Developmental Disabilities to support the College’s work with Montgomery
Area Nontraditional Equestrians (MANE). MANE is a nonprofit organization
that provides safe and effective therapeutic horseback riding for area children
and adults who have physical, cognitive, emotional, and developmental
disabilities.
The grant provides the funds to create and to stabilize a specialized student
workforce that is uniquely trained to participate in the MANE experience. This
training enables students to accompany those whose handicaps are more highly
involved, and will allow MANE to add a Special Olympics component. In the
past, Huntingdon students have volunteered as riding assistants and have
helped with building fences, clearing land, and creating a sensory trail at the
MANE equestrian center. Bettie Borton, executive director of MANE, said,
“MANE’s relationship with Huntingdon College students has tremendously
impacted our program in a positive way. It’s allowed us to serve many more
clients and provided hundreds of volunteer man-hours for the organization.”

or kids with special needs, and watch
them smile and laugh and gain strength
physically and mentally is incredible,”
says Hallett. “The children show amazing

Majors in Accounting, Elementary
Education, Religion Restored
Blount Foundation Establishes
Scholarship at Huntingdon
A nationwide resurgence of interest in service professions,
coupled with alumni support, has prompted the return of
programs in accounting, elementary education, and religion to the
list of College majors beginning fall, 2005. The elementary education program, to which admission was suspended in 1999 during a
time of faculty retirements, returns with the same emphasis on
optimizing classroom teaching experience before graduation. The
program has moved to the Dr. Laurie Jean Weil Center for Teacher
Education and Human Performance on the Cloverdale Campus.
The accounting major, which was terminated several years
ago because of changes in the requirements to qualify for the CPA
examination, now has a four-year track for those who want to use
accounting knowledge in a general business degree, and a five-year
CPA-prep track.
The religion major has been strengthened with new emphasis
on preparation for the ministry. The major also regains the concentration in Christian education, a field in much demand today.
Majors in international studies, Spanish, European studies,
field biology, public affairs tri-subject, and public administration
will be discontinued next fall because of low interest.
The Roberts and Mildred Blount
Educational and Charitable Foundation has
endowed a scholarship at Huntingdon
College with a gift of $400,000. The
endowment establishes ongoing scholarships intended for students from Elmore
County, Alabama. President West said of the
gift, “Perhaps the most important type of
endowment funding we can receive is that
which establishes scholarships. Roberts and
Mildred Blount clearly understood that
education is one of life’s greatest gifts – an
investment in the future of our world. We
thank the Foundation on behalf of those
students whose educational dreams and
goals will be achieved because of this gift.”
The Huntingdon College Blount Scholarships for Elmore County students will be
available beginning with the 2005-2006
academic year.

Core Curriculum Changes
The College’s core curriculum changed significantly
this fall, when Liberal Arts Symposium courses were
discontinued and required courses such as Old and New
Testament Scriptures were restored. The new core curriculum also emphasizes communication skills in writing and
speaking and restores the requirement for two courses in
Western Civilization. The foreign language requirement
has been removed.
Center for Career and Vocation Established
The Stallstreet Journal now hangs in every bathroom
cubbie; weekly and monthly job alerts are emailed to every
student; a series of workshops on topics such as graduate
school preparation and business etiquette have been held
this fall; and the Career Services library has expanded significantly. These are just a few of the improvements that
have accompanied the establishment of the Center for
Career and Vocation this year, under the direction of
Jennifer Ishler (formerly, Salter), director of student
development and career services. Ishler says the Journal, a
missive filled with interesting tips on the job search
process, is a fun way of getting the word out that there’s
something new happening in career services. Recognition
is, indeed, increasing.
Ishler also brought the Focus Career and Educational
Assessment to campus. Available online to every
Huntingdon student, the test assesses the students’
progress toward vocational goals. The results have been
helpful for both the students and their advisors.
Perhaps the largest shift in emphasis has come in
work with students who have no declared major. This
year, as part of the First Year Experience Program, undeclared students are instead called “Explorers,” and have
attended a number of special seminars on college-related
topics, as well as presentations by each academic major.

Jackson Home to Cloverdale, that facility has been converted
to office space for the Alabama-West Florida Conference of
The United Methodist Church. An extensive improvement
project in Bellingrath Hall has begun, with the initial steps of
waterproofing the ground floor providing support for later
improvements, including an elevator and space renovations.
The Bellingrath project will be accomplished in stages over
several years. Pratt Hall now accommodates a number of
offices for student clubs and organizations and for the
Student Government Association.
Huntingdon College has partnered with VeriSign to produce
a secure site for online giving, according to Cathy Wolfe, director
of development operations. “Our new Online Giving program

Hawks Pick Up 1st-Ever Football Win
On October 9, the Huntingdon Hawks found what
they had been looking for – that elusive first-ever win, 35
to 21 over Southwestern Assemblies of God University.
The team bounced back from their October 2 heart-breaking, last-second, one-point overtime loss to Thomas More
and avenged last season’s loss to the SAGU Lions.
David Smiley ’08 (Business Administration, Mary
Esther, FL), seeing his first significant playing time at the
tailback slot for the Hawks, came through in a big way,
rushing 11 times for 142 yards and three touchdowns for
Huntingdon. The first, a two-yard blast in the first quarter,
gave the Hawks the early lead. His 44-yard scamper gave
Huntingdon the lead at the half, 21 to 7, and gave fans the
sense that they were about to witness something special.
Smiley took away the rest of the Lions’ hope when
he ran 42 yards to his third touchdown of the day with
4:13 remaining in the game. Southwestern added a score
with only seconds remaining in the contest, but the Hawks
had clinched the team’s first-ever win, 35 to 21.
The Hawks had extended their winning streak with a
34 to 21 road victory over the Colorado College Tigers,
October 16; a home win October 22, 21-14 in overtime,
over North Carolina Wesleyan College; and a 53-0 rout
over the University of South Alabama at home, October
30. They finished their second season at a respectable 5-5
record.

and fitting into a homogenous group of students who knew each other
already wasn’t easy. My breakthrough came when I was eating dinner
and was struck by the sight of a pretty blonde girl, seated at another
table, who seemed to be opening her mouth wide to display partiallychewed food. I found this oddly fascinating. Soon I found out that I did
know one person—a girl from my high school—and she knew the
blonde girl and introduced us. She was Madeline Nichols ’72, a freshman from Montgomery.
We sat together at a basketball game not long after that and soon
I asked her out on a date. It was Valentine’s Day. We triple-dated and
went to see a film called Three in the Attic at the Capri Theater. From
then on we were together much of the time. Neither of us had a car so
we walked to the drugstore to get sundaes and spent time on campus.
She improved my study habits and raised my g.p.a. I’m afraid I did the
opposite for her, as she had never skipped a class before I came to
Huntingdon.

I graduated in spring of 1970, went to graduate school for a year,
and then came back to Montgomery. Madeline and I married in August
of 1971, the summer before her senior year. We’ve been married thirtytwo years; this past February we celebrated the thirty-fifth anniversary of
our first date. I give Huntingdon most of the credit for bringing me
together with the love of my life.

At Home at Sundance
Lucy Ridolphi ’79 works as the marketing manager for the
Sundance Resort in Utah, brainchild of Robert Redford, and
birthplace of the Sundance Film Festival and other branch
enterprises.
film, especially the area of writing. I volunteered with the
Sundance Film Festival, starting back in 1993. In 1997, I
attended graduate school at the University of California in L.A.
in the area of screenwriting, but due to a family illness
returned to Alabama. I was offered a seasonal staff position,
which allowed me to stay involved with the area of film. I also
worked for a month at the Sundance Institute’s Filmmaker’s
Lab, which is held each June at the Sundance Resort. As it
turned out, the resort was looking for a programs and marketing assistant and a friend suggested me. I’ve been here a little
more than three years.
Q What do you do at Sundance?
LR Our Executive Director, Raymond T. Grant, oversees
marketing and programs. I am the marketing manager, so I
produce all of the collateral, write press releases, work with
media, coordinate photo shoots or film shoots for PR purposes,
place ads, etc. I also work with a graphic designer who designs
collateral and ads.
Q
Can you describe the relationship between the Sundance
Resort and its entities?
LR Sundance was developed by Robert Redford as a creative
community. The various entities have grown out of that
original idea. The Sundance Institute works with emerging

independent artists to develop their craft. The Sundance Film
Festival was created as a place to exhibit the works of independent filmmakers, as was the Sundance Channel. The Sundance
Catalog was inspired by the Sundance General Store, located
here at Sundance. And it all grew out of the inspiration of the
place, Sundance.
Q What are the Sundance Resort’s purpose and goals?
LR Sundance is committed to preserving the balance of art,
nature, community and individuality. Our vision is to create a
dynamic and significant experience for people, their voices and
ideas. I think anytime someone comes here, it changes his or
her life, sometimes in small ways, like taking time out to
recharge and refresh the spirit, or in larger ways, such as the
artists and filmmakers who develop their work here.

Donor Spotlight:
Elizabeth (Libba) Rush Denson Lipscomb ’50
Who among us can see the future? We have no
inkling of how our relationships and the circles of those
around us create a web of connections – a pattern that is
only evident after time. Even more intriguing, we can’t
know the past bonds, forged by friendship or acquaintance; the hidden links to anonymous faces we pass in the
streets and malls and schools and stadiums we frequent.
The Reverend John Wesley Rush, a son-in-law of the
first bishop for the Methodist Church South, James
Osgood Andrew, and one of this College’s earliest faculty
members and trustees, and Andrew Adgate Lipscomb,
the first president of Tuskegee Female College (TFC
would, after three more name changes, become
Huntingdon College) no doubt knew each other. Their
descendants had to have met and crossed paths in
Huntingdon’s hallowed halls. But they couldn’t have
known that these two families would unite, nearly a century after Rush and Lipscomb first met, with the marriage
of Lipscomb’s great grandson, McAdory Lipscomb, and
Rush’s great-granddaughter, Elizabeth (Libba) Rush
Denson Lipscomb ’50.
John Wesley Rush and his wife, Octavia, had two
daughters who attended TFC/Alabama Conference Female
College (its second name), Mary Henrietta Rush (1877)
and Estelle Perry Rush (1890). Their son’s wife, Julia
Rosaline Roebuck Rush, graduated in 1884. A third
daughter, Mattie Ellen Rush, served as dean of women at
the College after it became Woman’s College of Alabama
(its third name) in the early 1900s. Julia and her husband,
Charles Andrew Rush, had two daughters who attended
Woman’s College of Alabama, Rosalind Octavia, Class of
1916, and Annie Elizabeth, Class of 1918. The College’s
final name change – to Huntingdon College – occurred in
1935. Rosalind’s daughter, Rosalind Augusta Davison,
graduated in the Class of 1943. Annie Elizabeth’s daughter, Elizabeth Rush Denson, was a member of the Class
of 1950.
Andrew Adgate Lipscomb’s second wife, student
Susan Dowdell Lipscomb, and a number of her cousins
or sisters (records are unclear) attended Huntingdon,
including Susie Dowdell (1869), Julia Caroline
Dowdell (1872), Jamie Dowdell (1875), and Arcadia

Connecting the Past to the Present
Libba Denson Lipscomb ’50, great granddaughter of one of the
College’s first trustees, married McAdory Lipscomb, great grandson of
the College’s first president, and continues the family commitment to
the College with her financial support.
Dowdell (1892). But it wasn’t until 1949, when Libba
and McAdory Lipscomb were married, that the many
branches of this family tree were conjoined.
Libba and McAdory met at the Armory in Opelika
when she attended a basketball game during her
Christmas vacation from Huntingdon. He fell in love with
her at first sight. Their marriage endured until McAdory’s
death in 1993.
A quick glance at Huntingdon’s records shows dozens
of people with last names that match those mentioned in
the paragraphs above – including some who are enrolled
at the College at this writing. Just how they are all related
is a mystery that Libba Lipscomb and other descendants
of the Lipscomb family are trying to solve.
What is most striking is that the commitment of those
who were involved with the College in its earliest years is
mirrored 150 years later by their descendants. Libba
Lipscomb, a generous donor to the College, is a member
of The Huntingdon Society, has endowed a scholarship
in honor of her great-grandfather and her grandfather
for history majors at Huntingdon College, has named
Huntingdon as a beneficiary in her will, and has given
a significant contribution to Campaign 150, the sesquicentennial fundraising campaign.
“I give for three reasons,” says Libba. “First, family
connections are important to me. Second, I went to
school there and I enjoyed it. Third, Huntingdon is a
Methodist school, and I believe as a good Methodist I
should support it.”
