A Whale
of a Decade
What’s with the
On the Cover:
Whales swam into W. James Samford Jr. Stadium during the first home football game of 2013, a nearly start-to-finish rain-fest, when Sigma Phi Epsilon
fraternity brought along two inflated orcas that had been purchased for a
fraternity waterslide swap earlier in the week. By the next home game, a virtual school of blown-up belugas bobbed in the end zone. By the last home
game, students had purchased all of the plastic leviathans in Montgomery
and road-tripped to neighboring states or commanded care packages
from home to add to the collection.
That’s the spirit of game days at Huntingdon, when red and white balloons
line Fairview Avenue and signs warn traffic that the Hawks are in town. Fans
mark their stadium seats with scarlet cushions. Children chase tiny red footballs behind the visitors’ stands. Greek organizations rally in their row of end
zone tents, grills puffing the aroma of tailgate food into the almost-alwayswarm Alabama breeze. A buzz emanates from the campers parked on the
front lawn of the Cloverdale Campus, where families cook, laugh, catch up
with their college students and share stories with each other. The stadium
speakers pulse crowd- and player-revving music … until the band begins
the Hawk Walk from Flowers Hall to the field. Brass, woodwind and percussion instruments rumble, blast, crack, and crash, then turn to face the gathered crowds, who stop—mid-chip-and-dip and hot dogs—to explode with
the Fight Song, loud cheers, “Hawk ’em” signs. The Hawks, waiting on the
field, clack, clap, and clatter as they ready for their prey of the day.
This is Hawks football, capping off a week filled with events like the arrival
of the C-SPAN bus on campus, a classical music concert, or the launch
of the Disability Sport Network; meetings of myriad campus organizations,
clubs and groups; service projects on- and off-campus; Greek charity fundraisers and social swaps; residence hall and commuter programs; Chapel, Emerge and bible study gatherings; and, especially, papers, research,
tests, classes, study groups and readings.
Whales, of course, have nothing to do with Hawks, but neither do Tigers
and War Eagles or Crimson Tides and elephants. They’re just another way
of celebrating the new spirit at Huntingdon. Besides, sometimes things that
don’t make sense become legend.

A Decade of
Growth
President J. Cameron
West reflects on
Huntingdon and the
first 10 years of his
presidency.
Q:President West, it’s no secret that the
first 10 years of your presidency have been
marked by an impressive growth in enrollment at Huntingdon. Let’s start by talking
about the parallel growth in academic programs at the College.
A: A key contributor to Huntingdon’s growth
has been a re-introduction of previously
popular majors that had been discontinued
because student populations couldn’t sustain them. Upon taking office, I asked for a
return of a major in religion, which later led
to majors in Christian education and youth
ministry. Majors in music, music education,
accounting, elementary education, and
physical education, teacher certification
in biology, and a music program concentration in worship leadership have been
introduced, reintroduced, or redesigned.
Last year the elementary education major
Since 2002, full-time day enrollment has
grown by 61 percent and the faculty has
grown by more than one-third. More than
27 percent of day students are majoring in
programs that have been reinstated or redesigned in the past 10 years.
transformed to elementary/collaborative
special education, improving graduates’
ability to adapt to teaching special needs
students who have been integrated into
the regular classroom as well as equipping
graduates to teach in some special education classrooms.
We have also created programs to stimulate intellectual inquiry and critical thinking,
such as the Joyce and Truman Hobbs Honors Program, the Jimmy Loeb Literary Series,
and the Huntingdon College Public Affairs
Forum.
Q:You have placed a great emphasis on
student vocation during your presidency.
What steps has the College taken to help
students find what they are called to do
and to prepare them to follow that calling?
A: The Center for Career and Vocation,
formed in 2008, works with students during every phase of finding and following
their vocational paths. We have uniquely
integrated the career services function of
the College into the Office of College and
Alumni Relations to better leverage our
friends and alumni to assist students in internship creation and job placement. Fran
Taylor is providing tremendous leadership
in the CCV, helping each student discern
a vocational calling and prepare for his or
her next step beyond Huntingdon. We have
the resources in place to help our students
in applying for jobs and graduate school
opportunities.
Q:You mentioned the reintroduction of the
music and music education majors earlier.
How has the Huntingdon music program
changed during the last 10 years?
A: The formation of the marching band,
the Marching Scarlet and Grey, attracted
students who love music and who simultaneously filled the classrooms in a variety of
majors. In fact, the major in music was redesigned and the major in music education was reintroduced because of these
student-musicians. The volume of interest
in music also led to dramatic growth in the
Concert Choir and helped establish other
music groups, such as Huntingdon Harmony
jazz/show choir, Huntingdon Winds symphonic band, Huntingdon Jazz, Huntingdon Pops ensemble, BallHawks Pep Band,

a men’s a cappella vocal ensemble, and
various instrumental ensembles.
Q:In 2012, Huntingdon was recognized by
the Montgomery Area Business Committee
on the Arts with a special community award
for the advancement of the arts in the River
Region. How is Huntingdon continuing to
support the arts community?
A: For many years, Huntingdon College
has been a major contributor to the River
Region music and arts community through
our strategic and intentional emphasis on
providing music and other cultural programs for the benefit of our students, the
Cloverdale neighborhood, and the entire
City of Montgomery. In addition to hosting individual student recitals and concerts
by the Huntingdon Winds concert band,
the Concert Choir, and other Huntingdon

ensembles, we are pleased to host events
such as the Blount-Slawson Young Artists
Competition and the Vann Vocal Institute.
Huntingdon also provides enriching music
and cultural programs through the Elizabeth
Belcher Cheek Concert Series, the Faculty
Recital Series, the Harald Rohlig Organ Concert Series, the Stallworth Lecture Series, the
Rhoda Coleman Ellison Writers Festival, and
the Jimmy Loeb Literary Series. All of these
events are free and open to the public,
thanks to generous support from donors
and friends. Baptist Health, for example,
stepped forward to sponsor our Community
and Cultural Events series for the past two
years.
Q:Facility renewal has been a hallmark of
the first 10 years of your presidency. Tell us
about the transformation of Huntingdon’s
Cloverdale Campus.
A: The purchase of the Cloverdale School
property in 2000, spearheaded by trustees
Emilie Hobbs Reid and the late Jim Wilson,
was a transformational moment for Huntingdon College. We quickly moved to renovate a portion of the property to establish
the Dr. Laurie Jean Weil Center for Teacher
Education and Human Performance. The
W. James Samford Jr. Foundation helped
us build a stadium, which originally hosted
football exclusively and now is the playing
field for football, men’s and women’s lacrosse, some soccer matches, and intramural sports. Leo Drum made a $1 million gift to
transform the Cloverdale School auditorium
into the gorgeous 246-seat Leo J. Drum Jr.
Theater, a tremendous asset for both the
College and the community. We added a
paved sidewalk behind Blount Hall this past
summer to accommodate all of the foot
traffic heading to the Cloverdale Campus.
generosity of a number of donors and
friends of the College who have helped us
begin the process of restoring the College’s
physical plant. Huntingdon trustee John Albritton and his sisters provided an enormous
gift to the College early in my presidency
to renovate Bellingrath Hall, which continues to house our widely-recognized science
program. Charles Roland provided more
than $1 million for the complete refurbishment of the basketball arena, named in
memory of his mother, Huntingdon trustee
Catherine Dixon Roland ’58. Twenty-two
trustees of the College collectively gave
$1.1 million to restore Ligon Hall, which now
houses freshmen women. Montgomery architect Renis Jones gave us a wonderful gift
to renovate the art gallery on the Green.
George Gibbs made a very significant gift
to rebuild the tennis court complex and to
add a beautiful arched gate at the Narrow
Lane Road entrance. Most recently, Bill and
Phyllis Gunter Snyder ’53 of Dallas, Texas,
made a very generous gift to restore Jackson Home at the center of campus. There
have been many others who have made
gifts toward various projects around campus— far too numerous to mention—whose
generosity will be appreciated for generations to come.
Q:The relationship between the president
and the chair of the Board of Trustees is crucial to the advancement of a College. How
would you define the board leadership during your presidency?
A: I could not have been more blessed to
have worked with three outstanding Board
chairs—Laurie Weil, Ken Upchurch, and David Hudson ’81. All of them have lent unique
Trustee Chairman David Hudson Jr. ’81

gala event for Huntingdon friends in May
2013, citing the comprehensive advancements the College has made under his decade of leadership.
perspective, gifts, and skills to the College at
a time when they were most needed. John
Albritton and Betty Thurman McMahon ’64
have been a generous, steady presence
during my entire tenure, serving respectively as vice chairman and secretary of the
Board of Trustees. Each of these trustees has
a deep love for Huntingdon College, and
each continues to serve the College with
great distinction.
Q:You have often said that Huntingdon is
“intentional” in claiming its historic mission
as a church-related liberal arts college.
What do you believe are Huntingdon’s responsibilities as a church-related liberal arts
college?
Football, men’s and women’s lacrosse, men’s tennis, women’s golf, and wrestling (new in the
fall of 2014) have added new faces to the line-up of Hawks and Lady Hawks student-athletes.
Q:Much has been done to revitalize other
existing facilities on campus. What are some
of the other facility enhancements?
A: We have truly been blessed by the
5
Huntingdon’s Service of Lessons and Carols
has become a favorite fall semester event
since its beginning 10 years ago.
A: I would submit that Huntingdon’s responsibility is to bear both (1) the perspective of the Judeo-Christian narrative and
(2) the wisdom of other religious narratives
and of secular narratives, in order that students explore with each other and with
their teachers what we might call the Big
Questions. And not as an intellectual exercise for its own sake, but as an intellectual
exercise with an end, a purpose: that of inviting each new generation to embrace for
itself, freely, wisdom leading to an ethic of
servant-hood in which we love our neighbors as God loves us.
Q:How has Huntingdon’s affiliation in
NCAA-Division III led to College growth?
A: In Division III, participants in intercollegiate athletics are true student-athletes
because we do not offer athletic scholarships. The ability to participate in one of
our 15 athletic teams is one of the reasons
half of entering students choose to attend
Huntingdon each year. There is great camaraderie among our student-athletes,
and it is special to see how they support
each other. This year we have joined the
USA South Athletic Conference, made up
of like-minded institutions in Tennessee,
Georgia, North Carolina and Virginia.
Q:What do you say to prospective students
to encourage them to consider Huntingdon
as their college home?
6
A: Huntingdon offers excellent academic
programs that prepare graduates for life
beyond college. Our alumni—thousands of
good citizens who contribute to their communities as physicians, attorneys, educators, ministers, coaches, accountants, authors, businessmen and women, pharmacists, physical therapists, and myriad other
professions—are evidence of the success of
our academic programs. Just as important,
however, is that students have many opportunities to gain leadership experience,
to build skills, and to enrich their resumes
because of vibrant student life programs.
Participation in NCAA-III intercollegiate athletics, Greek life, music and arts programs,
clubs and organizations, Campus Ministries,
and community service not only enriches
each student’s college experience, but
also builds vital skills for life after college.
Huntingdon’s core values of Faith, Wisdom,
and Service provide added value to our
students. Students tell me all the time that
they chose Huntingdon because of the
family atmosphere and because of the impressive faculty, staff and students they met
during a campus visit. There is a tremendous
spirit at Huntingdon, and I invite prospective
students to come see it for themselves.
it is so important for Huntingdon alumni
and friends to continue to give and to give
generously to Huntingdon. We have experienced three consecutive years of record
giving to the Huntingdon Fund and growth
in the percentage of alumni who are contributing. Alumni gifts enable Huntingdon to
continue to provide an affordable, quality
liberal arts experience for today’s generation of students.
Q:Looking back on your first 10 years as
president, what is your favorite Huntingdon
memory?
A: I will always treasure the privilege of living on campus in our beautiful President’s
Home. I walk my Shetland sheep dog, Colin, many nights around campus, and I often
have both profound and light-hearted conversations with students. I enjoy standing on
my front lawn during soccer games having conversations with parents about the
impact Huntingdon is making in their children’s lives. My family enjoys the interaction
with students in the dining hall and at other
gatherings around campus. Huntingdon is
truly our home.
Q:What are some of your favorite campus
traditions?
A: I really enjoy the formal academic traditions of the College, such as convocations, the Service of Lessons and Carols, and
the ability for the president to have the first
word to freshmen at the Presidential Convocation and the last word to the graduating seniors at Baccalaureate. I have great
respect for the time-honored traditions such
as the Oracle Hunt and the Red Lady Run.
I am especially excited about some of the
new traditions that our students have initiated—the presidential lawn party during
Welcome Back Week, the highly spirited Roland Rowdies student section at basketball
games, and the presence of hundreds of
students tailgating in the end zone before
and during football games.
Grant Hayes ’14 was one of many students
served by the CCV in internship placement
last year.
Q:How can alumni and friends of the College be most helpful in continuing to move
Huntingdon forward?
A: First, recruit students. So many students
come to Huntingdon because of referrals from alumni or friends. If there are high
school students in your sphere of influence, please tell them about Huntingdon
or contact our Office of Admission with
their names and we’ll follow up with them.
Second, alumni can secure internships for
students and identify entry-level job opportunities for upcoming graduates. Third,
The Julia Walker Russell Dining Hall
renovation was the major project of
2013, with some finishing touches still in
progress.
Preserving Huntingdon’s
Beauty
Fiscal improvements and renovations have
averaged more than one major project
each year during the last decade.
Charles Lee Field was completed in
2004, with W. James Samford Jr. Stadium following a year later. In 2012 the
field was resurfaced with modern turf
and visitor stands were added on the
former practice field. In fall 2013 lights
returned to the field after a 10-year absence.
Jean Rodgers Chapel was created in
the second floor of Flowers Hall and
dedicated in 2010, named for the Class
of 1949 alumna and long-time registrar
known as “Dean Jean.”
The renovation and expansion of Bellingrath Hall, the College’s science
building, was completed in 2008.
Massey Beach was created in the footprint of the former Massey hall, which
came down in 2009.
The 2011–12 Gibbs Tennis Center project included complete reconstruction
of Huntingdon’s tennis courts and the
addition of an arched entryway off of
Narrow Lane Road and this championship tennis court.
Leo J. Drum Jr. Theater opened in January 2013, funded by and named for the
long-time neighbor and college friend
who died before the project’s completion.
Catherine Dixon Roland Student Center and Roland Arena received new
names after an extensive renovation
of the former gym and improvements
to the building in 2007.
Seay Twins Art Gallery hosted its first
show in the renovated and renamed
space in 2009. The project was funded
by Montgomery architect Renis Jones
in honor of his wife, Noble Seay Jones
’49, and her twin sister, Peggy Seay
Compton ’49.
Ligon Hall received an extensive renovation in 2009 and reopened as the
residence hall for freshman women.
The Dr. Laurie Jean Weil Center, named
for the Huntingdon friend and trustee,
was dedicated in 2004 and houses
Huntingdon’s Sport Science and Physical Education programs.
The Will and Kelly Wilson Community
and Athletic Center houses the James
W. Wilson Jr. Gymnasium, home of
Lady Hawks Volleyball and the Disability Sport Network.
Improvements to Miriam Jackson
Home began in 2013, the first phase
of a two-part renovation that will be
completed during the summer of 2014.
Jackson Home houses the Staton Center for Learning Enrichment and faculty
offices for Religion programs, and will
be the home of the Phyllis Gunter Snyder Center for Campus Ministries.

Applying Wisdom in
In
Service
Huntingdon was notified of its third consecutive year of selection to the
President’s Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll in March 2013.
Led by the College motto, “Enter to Grow in Wisdom; Go Forth to Apply
Wisdom in Service,” students have served churches, schools, causes, and
community organizations in ways too far-reaching to document. If the
Butterfly Effect is true, the good done by Huntingdon people makes the
world a better place every day, all over the world. Here are just a few
snapshots from 2013.
Students and Student Life staff volunteered
for MLK: The MANE Event in January, working on landscaping and cleaning the horse
stalls for the Montgomery Area Non-traditional Equestrians. Huntingdon has sent
dozens of volunteers to work with MANE in
an ongoing relationship with that organization.
Students who are part of Huntingdon’s
Adapted Physical Education course work
with special education students from a
local school—this year, Wilson Elementary
School—whose students visit campus several times each semester.
Huntingdon has hosted the state Division B
(middle school) Alabama Science Olympiad tournament finals for the last 13 years
and the Division C (high school) finals for
the past 3 years. The annual commitment
requires dozens of student, faculty, and
staff volunteers.
The Montgomery Zoo, along with the Montgomery Food Bank , Family Sunshine Center, Common Ground Ministries, Resurrection Catholic
Missions, Adullam House, Faith Rescue Mission, the Friendship Mission, Nellie Burge Community Center, and Rebuilding Together Alabama
were among the community organizations served in 2013.
8
For a number of years Huntingdon
volunteers have worked with SaveFirst, a project of Impact Alabama
that trains and certifies volunteers to
prepare tax returns for low-income
families. HC’s 2013 SaveFirst volunteers prepared 937 returns for working
families who received $2 million in refunds. By filing through SaveFirst, these
families saved more than $281,100 in
commercial tax preparation fees.
Habitat for Humanity, The American Cancer
Society, Muscular Dystrophy Association,
the March of Dimes, the Arthritis Foundation, Make-A-Wish Foundation, Children’s
Hospital, and the Red Cross are just a few
of the national charities for which students
walked, ran, raised funds, played dodgeball, and volunteered during 2013.
During the traditional Big Red Day of Service 2013, 301 students, faculty, and staff contributed a combined 602 hours of community service in the Montgomery area. Participants
painted, built, planted, cleaned, and performed a variety of other services in 12 locations,
including MANE, River City Church, Montgomery Zoo, Habitat Re-Store, Family Sunshine Center, the Montgomery Dragonboat Festival, and three public schools.
The Disability Sport
Network rolls forward
(ACHE) for the purpose of developing afterschool adapted sports in which youth who
have physical impairments may participate—specifically, wheelchair basketball,
wheelchair tennis, and wheelchair track
and field; and to train and equip educators across the state to work with this underserved population. The after-school programs are open to students, ages 6–21,
whose physical impairments preclude them
from participation in organized schoolsponsored sports, but whose cognitive abilities allow them to master the necessary
skills. Youth may enroll at any time—the
program is free. The wheelchair basketball
team is already preparing for a January
tournament. Huntingdon’s DSPN teams will
be known as the Red Wings.
The wheels are turning in Wilson Gymnasium
on the Cloverdale Campus—the virtual and
the physical ones.
In November 2013, Huntingdon launched
the Disability Sport Network (HC-DSPN),
whose purpose is two-fold: creating
adapted sport opportunities that allow
young adults and children who have physical impairments to realize their potential
through sport participation; and training
physical educators, coaches, teachers,
and others to work with individuals who
have physical impairments in sport programs.
HC-DSPN was given a grant from the Alabama Commission on Higher Education
Dr. Lisa Olenik Dorman, chair of the Huntingdon Sport Science and Physical Education programs, developed the program
and has worked to see it come to fruition.
With regard to sport participation, the program’s goal is to teach prerequisite sport
skills that will allow the youth to continue
lifelong participation in organized sport or
physical activities. The intent is that, through
participation in activities such as wheelchair basketball and wheelchair tennis,
participants will develop the confidence,
work ethic, and leadership skills learned
through team sports. Huntingdon alumni,
students, and student-athletes are volunteering as coaches for the DSPN teams.
To prepare for the program’s launch, BlazeSports America offered a two-day training workshop for professionals who serve
individuals who have special needs. Participants, after completing follow-up testing
online, are eligible to earn Certified Disability Sport Specialist (CDSS) credentials, the
first such certification to be awarded in the
state of Alabama.
“Our HC students and DSPN athletes will
tell you that disability often takes place in
the environment when someone with an
impairment is required to participate in an
activity that requires ‘normal body movement,’” said Dr. Dorman. “What is ‘normal’ in wheelchair basketball is that students with often disabling conditions such
as cerebral palsy, spina bifida, Juvenile
Rheumatoid Arthritis, or amputation, are
no longer disabled. In addition to sport
skill development, through this participation they are developing those positive
institutionalized values attributed to sport,
such as teamwork, sportsmanship, playing fairly and treating your opponent in the
same way you would wish to be treated.”
Dr. Dorman said the HC-DSPN will
also develop a parent education curriculum, “allowing parents to access some of
the educational, spiritual, and community resources related to living well with an
impairment in a world seemingly created
for the able-bodied.”

Around the World
In 10 Years
Through the Huntingdon Plan, students may
travel and study internationally during the
junior or senior year with most costs covered
by regular tuition and fees. During the past
10 years, students have traveled in groups
with faculty to Costa Rica, France, the
Netherlands, the Caribbean islands, Scotland, Germany, England, Ireland, Puerto
Rico, Italy, Panama, Greece and Turkey,
Australia, Austria, Mexico, Hawaii, Alaska,
Ecuador, and Canada. Each trip requires
completion of a topic-centered semesterlong course as preparation.
For some students, their international travel
experience is also their first time on an airplane, let alone their first time out of the
country. Without fail, students return to
say that international travel-study was a
life-changing experience. Here are a few
scenes from 10 years of Hawk flights around
the world.
2013 was the first year the Hawk flag appeared in Scotland.
The trip to Greece and Turkey in 2011 followed the footsteps of St. Paul through the Holy
Land.
10
Members of the science faculty have taken groups to Costa Rica in 2009, 2011, and
2013. Ziplining through the rainforest is always on the agenda.
Coming up during 2013–14, students will travel and study in
separate groups the Victorian
era through music and literature
in London; international business
in Lille, France; philosophers and
scientists of Germany; conservation in Trinidad; and historical
movements and monuments in
Paris.
Honduras in 2011 and Puerto Rico in 2010 and 2012 (pictured) were adventure destinations.
Students who traveled to Ecuador in 2010
and Panama in 2009 combined service with
travel/study.
Students have visited destinations in Great Britain nearly every year. A visit to Stonehenge is
almost always on the itinerary.
Students who traveled to Australia with Dr. Maureen Kendrick Murphy ’78, chemistry, and
Professor Eric Kidwell, director of the library, in 2012 created Lib Guides on various topics,
comparing the U.S. with Australian perspectives. The assignment has been hailed at national
teaching conferences as innovative and trend-setting.
Germany, visited by this group in 2007, was
a 2013 destination and will receive more
Hawks in 2014, as well.

heart,” David said. “I left Huntingdon right for the PGA Tour my
first year. That doesn’t happen too often. I enjoyed my collegiate
experience and I want to help our golfers do the same. I want
to help them play great golf, have a great college experience,
get a great education, and leave here with the same love for
Huntingdon that I have.” David earned first-team All-American honors in 1986, 1987, 1988,

all of those lessons with me still today.”

George and Betty Gibbs, left, were on campus for the dedication of the Gibbs
Tennis Center in May 2013, and were joined by (L–R) head women’s tennis
coach Ximena Moore, head men’s tennis coach Charlie Lane ’71, and former
director of tennis Coach John McWilliams. Mr. Gibbs, a former Huntingdon
neighbor who makes his home in Louisville, Ky., has long been a generous
contributor to Huntingdon’s tennis program. His contribution was the lead gift
for the Huntingdon Tomorrow Campaign and led to the demolition and reconstruction of the former 7 courts and the addition of an eighth court and
a gated entrance off of Narrow Lane Road. Construction took place during
2011–12 and the courts opened for the spring 2012 tennis season.

Support
the Huntingdon Fund
What difference did Huntingdon make in your life?
When you make a gift to the Huntingdon Fund, you make a
difference in the life of Huntingdon College and in the lives
of those who are educated here—students who are primarily
from the Southeast and who might not otherwise be able to
afford a private college education; students who are just like
you were when Huntingdon changed your life.
Gifts to the Huntingdon Fund are Huntingdon’s most critical
need at this time. Gifts of any amount are welcome and necessary to ensure the sustained success of this great college.
Those who give at the level of $1,000 or more become members of the Huntingdon Society.
Will you give today?

During 2012–13, Huntingdon experienced increases from alumni donors
representing every decade of living alumni. What struck us the most,
though, was the surge in donations
from young alumni. Throughout this
year’s Donor Report, please enjoy
the statements from some of those
young alumni about why they give
to Huntingdon College.
Louis Hines ’13, left, is the youngest alum to join the Huntingdon Society. He and Danielle Turk, wife of athletic director and
head football coach Mike Turk, were present for a special donor
event held in May 2013.
In March 2013, Huntingdon President J. Cameron West and
Vice President for College and Alumni Relations Anthony Leigh
hosted the monthly meeting of the Alabama Legislative Spouses
Club. The ladies heard a presentation about Huntingdon’s
adapted physical education program and the Hawks on the
Hill internship experience for Huntingdon students interested in
state government.
Joan Loeb enjoyed talking with students during the reception
for speaker Nancy Huddleston Packer following the 2013 Jimmy
Loeb Literary Series, named in memory of her late husband. Pictured L–R are Sherry Leigh Lacey ’13, Taylor King ’13, Katie Jones
’13, Joan Loeb, Kaela Grady ’14, and Katie Scott ’13.
“I give to Huntingdon because Huntingdon gave so much to me in the short time I was there. I cannot put a price on the friendships and memories that I have made thanks to HC!” —Angie Smith ’12

Continue the Legacy!
Alumni can impact positively the lives of prospective students
with the awarding of the $10,000 Alumni Legacy Grant. You
may refer one student annually by sending the student’s
name, address, phone numbers, e-mail address, and current school information; your name, address, class year, and
contact information; and a paragraph or two about how you
know the student and why you think he or she would be an
asset to Huntingdon College. The Alumni Legacy Grant is
renewable for up to three additional years of study, requires
on-campus residency, and requires the student to maintain
satisfactory academic progress toward the completion of his
or her degree. Applications cannot be submitted after the first
day of classes of a student’s first year at Huntingdon College.

“I give back to Huntingdon because I am grateful for the wisdom, knowledge, and experience I gained, which will serve
me in my current and future endeavors. I was challenged to
explore my faith, given opportunities to lead, and encouraged
to serve my community. I want other students to have the same
opportunity to have a Huntingdon experience.”—Chelsey

Huntingdon Adds an Honorable
Name to the Honors Program
During a special gala event
held in May 2013, Judge
Truman Hobbs Sr., Article III
federal judge for the United
States District Court for the
Middle District of Alabama,
retired, and his wife, Joyce,
were celebrated as the
namesakes for the College’s
newly
christened
Joyce
and Truman Hobbs Honors
Program. Judge and Mrs.
Hobbs, who are long-time
friends and neighbors of the
College, were presented
with Presidential Medallions
by Huntingdon President J.
Cameron West.
In his remarks, President West
described the Hobbs Honors Program and Huntingdon’s liberal arts academic
programs as built around
educational success with the
goal of fostering in students a
manifestation of responsible
citizenship. “We want students to learn how to place
the well-being of their communities at the center of their
beliefs, their decisions, their
actions,” he said. “We want
Huntingdon students to learn
how to think critically and
ethically, and to communicate with clarity and civility, so that they can extend
themselves in service far beyond what they have ever
experienced before coming
to campus. ... Huntingdon,
like all colleges and universities with honors programs, recruits outstanding students to
take challenging courses and
to be rewarded for their academic diligence with appropriate scholarship assistance.
Uniquely, however, we are
seeking in the Joyce and Truman Hobbs Honors Program
to create a community of students who live out the meaning of ‘honor’ both in their individual lives and as a body
of scholar-citizens.”
After completing his bachelor’s degree at the University
of North Carolina-Chapel Hill
in 1942, Truman Hobbs, a native of Alabama, served four
years of active duty in the U.S.
Navy, achieving the rank of
lieutenant, then completed
his juris doctorate degree at
Yale School of Law in 1948.
He served as a law clerk for
U.S. Supreme Court Justice
Hugo Black from 1948 to 1949,
then became a private practice attorney in Alabama. He
was nominated to the federal judgeship for the Middle
District of Alabama by President Jimmy Carter in 1980.
He served as chief judge of
the court from 1984 until 1991,
when he assumed senior status. Joyce Hobbs graduated
from Vassar College.
President West said that it is
fitting for the program to be
named for Joyce and Truman
Hobbs as they have both lived
lives of honor and service
to the community and for
the greater good. “... Joyce
and Truman Hobbs would tell
you that all the degrees and
honors from Vassar, Chapel
Hill and Yale; all the Phi Beta
Kappa and military and Supreme Court clerkship accolades; all the prestige of serving in the federal judiciary; all
the recognition that has justly
come from the Tocqueville
Society; all of this and more
would mean nothing were it
not undergirded by a way of
living that is honorable,” he
said. He added, addressing
Judge and Mrs. Hobbs, that
Huntingdon’s Joyce and Truman Hobbs Honors Program
is so named “in the hope and
trust that we will be inspired
to teach outstanding young
men and women to live as
you have lived.”
Dr. Chad Eggleston, assistant provost and director of
the Hobbs Honors Program,
articulated what makes the
program different from those
at other colleges. “Two specific features of our honors
program set it apart: a sense
of the social nature of knowledge and the sense of civic
responsibility that comes with
it,” said Eggleston. “... We
teach students in the Honors Program that they are
responsible not only for their
own success, but for that of
their peers as well. [Our honors students] are responsible
not only to one another at
Huntingdon, but also to others in the community, and
toward that end we encourage students to ... recognize
that their intellectual and academic achievements ought
to be used in service. This is
something more than the simple acknowledgement that
our peers need our help, but
the recognition that the body
politic needs deep, serious
engagement.”
Huntingdon honors students
are required to complete 18
hours of honors core courses,
and then to complete a minor or to participate in interdisciplinary courses. Students
are asked to serve as tutors
for their peers and to be involved in one or more of the
College’s many community
service-oriented outreach initiatives.
Dr. Chad Eggleston, director of
the Joyce and Truman Hobbs
Honors Program, assistant professor of religion, and assistant
to the provost for learning
enrichment, left; Mandy McMichael, assistant professor of
religion, center; and Dr. Lynn
Disbrow, professor of communication studies, were present
for a special dinner honoring
Joyce and Truman Hobbs as
the Hobbses lent their name
to the College’s honors program.
Dr. Frank Buckner, professor
of religion (left, with President
J. Cameron West), was honored with the Mary Mildred
Sullivan Award in May 2013.
The award, made possible by
the Algernon Sydney Sullivan
Foundation, is bestowed by
select colleges and universities in the Southeast upon a
member of the College community in recognition of character such that “the spiritual
standard of the institution may
be judged by the character
of the person to whom the
award is made.”
Dr. Donna Whitley Manson,
professor of history and faculty marshal, and her husband,
Stewart, are members of the
Huntingdon Society.

Student Alumni
Association Formed
The Huntingdon Student Alumni
Association was formed in 2012
by a group of students who
wanted to demonstrate their
loyalty to Huntingdon and to
assist the Office of College and
Alumni Relations by making gifts
of $10 or more to the Huntingdon
Fund. These students’ names are
included among the classes of
2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016. We
celebrate these students for their
foresight; for their understanding that each private college’s
strength is built by the support of
private gifts; and for their enthusiastic support.

Friends
• The Rev. Robert Lambuth Archibald Jr., a former member of the Huntingdon College Board of Trustees and a retired pastor of the North Alabama
Conference, passed away June 15, 2013, in Decatur, Ala. We extend our
sympathies to his wife, Mary Holland Archibald.
• We remember with gratitude the life of
Colonel Robert Barmettler, who directed
theatre productions and taught English for
18 years at Huntingdon during the 1970s
and ’80s. Colonel Barmettler, a retired
Army (WWII) and Air Force veteran who
earned Bronze and Silver Stars for valor, retired in 1970 as a lieutenant colonel after
teaching at Maxwell AFB in Montgomery
and began a second career as a teacher
of English and drama at Huntingdon and
later at Alabama State University. Colonel
Barmettler built the Dungeon Theatre in
Massey Hall and was a keen supporter of
Huntingdon and Montgomery community
arts productions until his death, December
16, 2012, at age 88. He was preceded in
death by his second wife, with whom he
collaborated on writing a number of musical stage plays, retired Huntingdon music professor Dr. Jeanne Shaffer. • Emily Mitchell Reaves Leischuck, a benefactor of the Claude M. and Emily
T. Reaves Endowed Scholarship, passed away April 19, 2013, in Auburn, Ala.
We extend our deepest sympathy to her husband, Dr. Gerald Leischuck,
and give thanks for the lasting impression she made on many lives.
