Playwright Suzan-Lori Parks Inspires Grads with 40 Ideas
N
oted playwright Suzan-Lori Parks provided the keynote address for the Class of 2003 during Commencement on May 18 at the Cathedral of the Holy Spirit/Chapel Hill Harvester Church in Decatur, Ga. Ms. Parks, who recently turned 40, offered 40 lifeincorporating suggestions to eager seniors during her speech, starting with “Think for yourself,” and ending with “Be bold.” She also urged the audience to use their senses plus four more – the sixth sense (ESP), a sense of humor, a sense of sisterhood, and a sense of soul. A Tony Award nominee, Ms. Parks is currently the head of the Dramatic Writing Program at CalArts in Valencia, Ca. She received the 2002 Pulitzer Prize for Drama for her play, “Topdog/Underdog,” and recently released a novel, Getting Mother’s Body (Random House 2003). Ms. Parks received an honorary degree in Fine Arts during the ceremony. Other honorary degree recipients included Ambassador Andrew Young (Doctorate of Laws), legendary baseball great Henry “Hank” Aaron and his wife, community servant Billye Aaron as well as groundbreaking Ugandan educator Sarah Nyendwoha Ntiro. The latter three received Doctorates of Humane Letters. Bishop Vashti Murphy McKenzie, presiding prelate of the Eighteenth Episcopal District of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, also delivered a spirited message to the 2003 graduating class at Baccalaureate Service on May 17 at the Cathedral. l

Founders Day 2003: Signatures of a Noble Calling
T
he Spelman College community commemorated 122 years of black women leaders with a week of Founders Day activities under the theme Signatures of a Noble Calling. The celebration began April 5 with the annual Breakfast at Tiffany & Co., where this year’s Alumnae Achievement Awards were presented. Another highlight of the week was “Conversations with Dr. Tatum” where alumnae discussed various college issues. The festivities closed on April 11 with Major General Marcelite Jordan Harris, C’64, delivering a dynamic Founders Day Convocation speech. Major General Harris was the highestranking female officer in the United States Air Force upon her retirement in 1997. She most recently served as chief of staff for the New York City Department of Education. An honorary degree was awarded to Johnnie Watts Hines Prothro, C’41, a scientist, educator and community servant. Mildred Ponder Stennis, C’47, a retired educator, philanthropist and storyteller, received the Founders Spirit Award. Spelman academic dean Cynthia Spence,
C’78, was honored with the Fannie Lou Hamer Award and Spelman professor of psychology LaConyea Butler, C’56, received the True Blue Award. l

Inside Spelman is published four times per academic year for a readership that includes alumnae, trustees, parents, students, faculty, staff and friends of the College. The newsletter is dedicated to informing the Spelman College family about news, upcoming events and issues in the life of the College.
THE SPRING SEMESTER WAS A VERY BUSY ONE, MARKED by several major institutional events – the inauguration and the weeklong Founders Day activities. Thanks to the efforts of many, the inaugural weekend was a great success. I have received many messages from delegates around the country as well as campus constituents about how impressed they were with all of the activities. My favorite message was from a student who wrote, “I just want to let you know that your inauguration reminded everyone here of what a wonderful place Spelman can be.” Dr. Beverly Daniel Tatum The celebration of Founders Day continued in the positive spirit of inauguration. Our Founders Day speaker was Major General Marcelite Jordan Harris, C’64. Dr. Johnnie Hines Protho, C’41, received a Doctor of Science honorary degree, and Dr. Mildred Ponder Stennis, C’47, received the Founders Spirit Award. Faculty members were also honored: Dr. LaConyea Butler, C’56, received a True Blue Award and Dr. Cynthia Spence, C’78, was bestowed the Fannie Lou Hamer Award. Sisters Chapel was quite a buzz during this lovely ceremony. This buzz continued during “Lord! I Got a Right to the Tree of Life,” the culminating event of Cosby Chair Dr. Bernice Johnson Reagon. More than a 1,000 people packed the Chapel on April 15 for a tribute evening to early African American sacred songs. The electric charge that surged the crowd during this event was transferred to the keys of the Sisters Chapel organ when Dr. Joyce Finch Johnson performed a spirited ‘last gasp’ prior to the Chapel closing on April 28 for renovations. We look forward with a great anticipation to sitting in the newly renovated chapel with airconditioned comfort, convenient restrooms and expanded balcony seating. And when we do, we will know that it was Spelman alumnae, students, parents, trustees, faculty, staff and friends of the College that made these improvements possible. To make a donation, send your contribution to Sisters Chapel Campaign, Spelman College, Box 1303, 350 Spelman Lane, SW, Atlanta, GA 30314-4399. The spiritual life of the campus will be invigorated in another way as well. Dr. Renita Weems, a nationally known Hebrew Scriptures scholar from Vanderbilt University, will join the Philosophy and Religion Department in the fall as the new Cosby Chair in the Humanities. In addition, both Dr. Bernice Johnson Reagon C’70 and Dr. Sheila Walker will remain onboard as Cosby Chairs. Also, former Cosby Chair Ayoka Chenzira is now a permanent member of the Women’s Studies faculty. As I look forward to the 2003-2004 academic year, I reflect on the fact that we accomplished our goals last year through the generous contributions from our alumnae, parents and friends; faculty and staff; foundations and organizations; corporations and our corporate partners. We are enormously grateful for this show of support as demonstrated in a special section of this issue of Inside Spelman. Thank you for reinforcing the student’s comment above about Spelman–“what a wonderful place.” l Spelman’s ninth president, Beverly Daniel Tatum, shared a historic moment with Board of Trustees Chair, June Gary Hopps, C’60, at her Inaugural Ceremony this past March. The Spelman community celebrated Dr. Tatum’s official installation with a weekend of activities including an inaugural symposium, ceremony, student party, reception, worship service and an alumnae tea.

Mathematics Professors Receive $246,137 Grant
S
pelman College mathematics professors Nagambal Shah and Monica Stephens are the recipients of a $246,137 grant from the National Science Foundation for the curriculum development project entitled Collaborative Research: Training Environmental Statisticians Using Complicated Data Sets to Make More Informed Environmental Decisions. The grant is for a collaborative project between Dr. Shah and Dr. Stephens at Spelman College and Dr. William Swallow, Dr. Kimberly Weems and Professor William Hunt at North Carolina State University. Several governmental agencies, including the Georgia Environmental Protection Agency Region 4 and the Georgia Department of Natural Resources are co-supporters and clients of this effort.
The goal of the project is to expose students to an application-based experience in environmental statistics. More specifically, the project will (1) provide a consulting opportunity for the students with federal, state or local agencies; (2) focus on the application of students technical skills through data analysis to a real problem; (3) have the students gain consulting experience; (4) help develop students oral and written communication skills; and (5) keep minority students in the pipeline to pursue graduate studies in environmental statistics and the environmental job market. The project has three major components. A course in environmental statistics will be taught during the spring semesters of 2004, 2005 and 2006. The Spelman Summer
Environmental Statistics Institute will support student research during the summers of 2004, 2005 and 2006. During the summer, an interdisciplinary team of students will work with data provided by various clients such as the Department of Natural Resources and EPA Region 4. The students will then analyze the data and report the results of their analysis to the clients thus helping the clients make better environmental policy decisions. In the third component, materials from the program will be disseminated to the public via the Internet and through workshops so that similar collaborations between other institutions and government agencies may occur. l

Student Activists Launch AUC Peace Coalition
T
he AUC Peace Coalition was created in the fall of 2002. At inception, the coalition centered on opposition to the Iraqi war and served as a voice for peace. During the spring semester, members of the coalition distributed information and unveiled the roles of capitalism, materialism, patriarchy and racism within the motives of the United States war with Iraq. “The war was real,” states Spelman College freshman Sarah Thompson, coordinator of the Atlanta University Center Peace Coalition, “we couldn’t turn it off our television screens and move on with our daily lives. We had a responsibility to the rest of the communities of the world to stand up against oppression when they could not.” Over the past several months, the 25 members of AUC Peace have sponsored a student speak-out, hosted a panel and participated in several local, statewide and national protest rallies. They also participated in a “Day of Silence” in solidarity with those who were detained in this country under the U.S.A. “Patriot Act.” AUC Peace created, signed and mailed petitions with over 500 signatures to several members of the United States Presidential Cabinet, as well as key local and national elected government officials. They have

urged people to call their local senators to vote against policies that made the war with Iraq possible. AUC Peace also held a food solidarity day where members ate a typical Iraqi meal under sanctions – rice and beans. “Spelman’s history as a black women’s institution has given us a special focus on how the war with Iraq affected women and children, especially those of color, because they are the poorest people on earth,” explains Ms. Thompson. AUC Peace’s peer education emphasizes the loss of rights and life that women face as result of war historically, and
the deepened effect of preemptive warfare possibilities that the war on Iraq opens. “We supported a prayer service for people from the AUC and their relatives who were called to fight in the Middle East,” says Ms. Thompson. “We realize African Americans are over-represented in military ranks. We explain to students how this affects our communities. We take time to listen to students’ challenges and questions. We are young and we must create the world that we want to see in the future, today!” l
STUDENT PROFILE
Courtney R. Jones 2003–2004 THOMAS J. WATSON FELLOWSHIP AWARD WINNER Q: What inspired you to apply for the Watson Fellowship?
A: My first exposure to the Watson Fellowship was through the appli-
cation process of several friends. Whether it was never-ending revisions or jitters before their interviews, each of them had to confront the trials of applying for this prestigious and competitive fellowship. I began to seriously consider applying after attending an internal information session about fellowships available for graduating seniors. The Watson Fellowship stood out to me; their focus was on identifying independent young women and men who were willing to take their enthusiasm for whatever they loved abroad for the next year. I jumped at the opportunity to be one of the chosen few.
Q: What do you hope to accomplish as a Watson Fellow?
A: I am truly overjoyed and proud to represent Spelman College as its
Watson Fellow. It is my honor to continue to show the world what it means to be a “woman who serves.” My hope is to learn how grassroots organizations fulfill the roles left vacant by the families of displaced children. In this country, we are in the midst of an era where adults leave many of our own children vulnerable and attempting to raise them-

selves. I have charged myself to gather the insight needed to aid this next generation to see beyond their immediate circumstance and preserve their independence and faith in themselves.
Q: What country do you plan on traveling to and why?
A: My year abroad will be spent in Jamaica and Brazil. Each country has a legacy of mistreatment and exploitation of laborers, unequal distribution of wealth and remnants of colonization. I hope to gain a greater understanding of the experience of Africans in the Diaspora in the time spent in these two wonderful countries.
Q: What is your major and what are your immediate plans after graduation?
A: As an Environmental Science major, I have developed a passion
for helping people overcome the detrimental effects of the built environment on their health. My desire to continue my studies on the Continued on page 6.

Through the Corporate Partnership Program and strength of BMW NA’s top executives, enterprising Spelmanites are the recipients of numerous scholarships and receive priority for professional internship opportunities that help prepare them for future studies and industry junior executive positions. This year, at the Corporate Partnership Program 10th Anniversary Conference, BMW NA’s Campus Champion, Kay Madati, was honored for his hard work and dedication to Spelman College and the Corporate Partnership Program. He received the Campus Champion of the Year Award for his commitment to excellence and leadership and for serving as an effective mentor. BMW NA’s intern, Lillian Hardy served under the leadership of Madati and presented the award. “One of the most positive realizations I had as
an intern at BMW NA is the ability to readily notice their commitment to diversity and women,” says Ms. Hardy. “Often, I had exposure to projects and career opportunities that were not characteristic of typical intern work. It became obvious very quickly that BMW NA’s staff and my mentor Mr. Madati believed professional experiences for students are the most meaningful.” With nearly one-quarter of a million dollars in giving, BMW NA and Spelman’s relationship spans over eight years. Each year the relationship continues to grow because of BMW NA’s continuous commitment to develop dynamic, individualized relationships with Spelman students, faculty and staff.

Creating a Strong Culture of Alumnae Giving
I
n 2000, I took on the responsibility of serving as one of the SpelAgents for the 10-year reunion of the Class of 1990. I was shocked to discover that out of nearly 13,000 alumnae, less than 15 percent were contributing to the College,” says Adrienne Lance Lucas, C’90. “It was then that I made a personal commitment to spread the message to my Spelman sisters about the importance of alumnae participation.” At some institutions of higher education, a strong “culture of giving” is embedded in their history and passed on from one gener-

boast participation rates from 45 percent to as high as 53.5 percent. Although, Spelman successfully benchmarks itself with these reputable institutions academically, our alumnae participation falls far short. In fact, corporations and foundations are Spelman’s major contributors. Together, they provide over half of all private financial resources to the College, while alumnae gifts account for only nine percent. “We are forever in search of a way to ‘spin’ the importance of alumnae giving – some perfect, attractive message that will

Graduates readily accept their responsibility to give back, knowing that their donations should be the largest source of private funding for their alma mater. Their willingness to give continues long after they have graduated and this philanthropic spirit strengthens their bond with the college. This commitment is evident at leading women’s colleges across the nation. Institutions such as Wellesley, Smith and Mt. Holyoke
motivate alumnae to give back to our institution,” says Lance Lucas. “Spelman women should give because it’s the right thing to do.” It’s like paying tithes and offerings in the church. You offer support not solely because of the blessings that have been bestowed upon you and the future blessings to come, but because you know and accept your responsibility to the church,” she adds. “Donations to Spelman should not work
Dr. Harry G. Lefever and Paralee Beck Retire Dr. Harry G. Lefever, professor of sociology, and Paralee Beck, Student Financial Services Counselor, are retiring after 37 and 31 years of dedicated service to the Spelman community, respectively. Dr. Lefever’s arrival at Spelman in 1966 coincided with the emergence of sociology as a separate academic major and department. He is responsible for adding a wide variety of courses to the sociology/anthropology department curriculum and Lefever served as departmental chair for 17 years. Dr. Lefever has published over 35 articles and reviews, and is the author of Turtle Bogue: AfroCaribbean Life and Culture in a Costa Rican Village. He recently completed his manuscript, Undaunted by Fight, in which he chronicles Spelman student involvement in the Civil Rights Movement. In 1991 he
