Spelman Names Building in Honor of ‘Sister Prez’ Johnnetta B. Cole
S
pelman College paid tribute to its first Black woman president, Johnnetta B. Cole, by naming a prominent campus building in her honor. The Johnnetta Betch Cole Living & Learning Center II was dedicated on her 70th birthday, October 19, 2005. Dr. Cole’s historic appointment sparked an era of major growth for Spelman, the nation’s largest historically Black college for women. She was its seventh president, and, as a career academic and renowned anthropologist, its first scholar-president as well. Her most recent publication is Gender Talk: the Struggle for Women’s Equality in African American Communities, co-authored with Dr. Beverly Guy-Sheftall, director of the Women’s Center and Anna Julia Cooper Professor of women’s studies at Spelman, as well as outgoing president of the Faculty Council. She recalls Dr. Cole’s profound impact on the College’s intellectual climate. “Spelman became an even more exciting place to teach and learn. We were a mecca for scholar/writer/activists such as Chinua Achebe, Graca Machel, Audre Lorde, Angela Davis, Sonia Sanchez, Mari Evans, Catherine Bateson, Anita Hill and bell hooks.
During her 1987–1997 tenure, Dr. Cole boosted the College’s public profile and academic reputation, significantly increased its endowment and established several groundbreaking programs. She also strengthened Spelman’s relationship with the business community by serving on several boards of directors including those of The Home Depot, Merck & Co. Inc. and NationsBank South. She was the first woman ever elected to the board of Coca-Cola Enterprises. “It was a joy and a privilege to serve as the president of Spelman College for 10 years,” Dr. Cole said. “I appreciate the acknowledgement of that service by the naming of the Living & Learning Center II in my honor.” Her hands-on leadership style and accessibility to students and faculty earned her the nickname “Sister Prez.” During Dr. Cole’s tenure, the College received the historic $20 million gift from Drs. William and Camille Cosby that supported the Camille Olivia Hanks Cosby Academic Center and the establishment of endowed chairs in the fine arts, social sciences and humanities; applications for admissions doubled, and Spelman received top rankings from several national Continued on page 6.

Artist Amalia Amaki Shakes the Winter Blues malia Amaki: Boxes, Buttons and the Blues, featuring more than 70 mixedmedia works by renowned Atlanta-based artist Amalia Amaki will be on view at the Spelman College Museum of Fine Art from January 26 through May 13, 2006. Dr. Amaki, (b. 1949), draws influence from sources as varied as singer Billie Holiday and surrealist photographer Man Ray. Amalia Amaki: Boxes, Buttons and the Blues, presented in three thematic sections, features photographs, quilts, souvenir fans, mixed media works and digitally manipulated photographs. Incorporating fabric, beads, pearls, buttons, paint and glitter, Dr. Amaki, in many of her works, turns found objects, photographs, and quilts into playful visual puns. Her beaded and button-encrusted heart-shaped candy boxes, for example, are full of tempting faux chocolates made from buttons. A mid-career retrospective, this exhibition examines the breadth of Dr. Amaki’s work, spanning more than three decades. Drawing from such sources as blues music, photography, familial history and American heritage, Dr. Amaki’s work challenges traditional views of African American culture and focuses on positive images of African American life – love, loyalty, pride and strength. Dr. Amaki’s work examines the cultural contributions that Black people continually make in America as well as addressing cultural issues relevant to African American life.

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 our readers about news, upcoming events and issues in the life of the College.
Academic Excellence, Leadership Development, Improving Our Infrastructure, Visibility of Our Achievements, and Exemplary Customer Service are the five key components of the Spelman College strategic plan known by the acronym, Spelman ALIVE. We are working hard on all five areas, but this spring our focus on the “I” in ALIVE will be most noticeable as the renovation and expansion of Rockefeller Hall, the oldest building on campus, is now under way, and construction of a new residence hall will begin this spring. The Rockefeller project is the second phase of a two-part project, involving the renovation of both Packard Hall and Rockefeller Hall, initiated and approved by the Board of Trustees during Dr. Audrey Manley’s tenure. This project has not only provided for improved customer service through the centralization of student administrative services in Packard Hall and the expansion of muchneeded office space in Rockefeller Hall, but it has also insured the historic preservation of two of the oldest buildings on campus. Our newest building, approved by the Board of Trustees in October 2005, will preserve and enhance the residential character Dr. Beverly Daniel Tatum of our campus. Though many alumnae fondly recall their days in the dorms with their Spelman sisters, today more than 40 percent of our students commute to Spelman from off-campus apartments simply because we do not have enough on-campus housing to accommodate them. Though off-campus living offers a level of independence that some young women seek, a long and increasingly expensive commute discourages active campus involvement, limits the valuable interactions with faculty outside the classroom and reduces the opportunity for the close-knit relationships among Spelman women that are the hallmarks of a Spelman education. Further, our goal of recruiting and retaining excellent students is hampered when we cannot assure anxious parents that we can provide housing for their daughter for at least the first two years of her college experience. For this reason, increasing our on-campus housing capacity has been a high priority for me. Scheduled to open in August 2007, our new residence hall will house approximately 300 students in apartment-style suites, changing our current housing capacity from 57 percent to 70 percent of our student population. Though we expect most of the residents of the two-, three- or four-bedroom suites will be upper-class students, the additional space will create the room we need to house all of our firstyear and sophomore students, who will be required to live on campus beginning in 2007. Because our current cafeteria is too small to accommodate an additional 300 campus residents, a dining facility will be included as part of the new housing complex. Also included will be an adjacent power plant to meet the heating and cooling needs of the new building as well as any future construction on the west side of the campus. This ambitious construction project represents the first expansion of the Spelman College campus beyond the current gates. In 2004, we were successful in purchasing some property adjacent to the campus that includes a large parking lot (next to the Lee Street campus entrance), the Milligan office building (which is currently housing the displaced Rockefeller Hall administrators) and a large parcel of vacant land which lies behind the Stewart and Cole Living and Learning Centers and runs parallel to Westview Drive across from the Morehouse School of Medicine. The landscaping plan for the project will create a new pedestrian walkway from the central campus to this new section, and the elegant fence which encircles Spelman will be removed and restored around the new boundary of our expanding campus. Given our current financial status (“healthy but not wealthy”), it would be natural to ask how we will pay for this project, expected to cost approximately $50 million. Our plan is to borrow the money by issuing a bond in early 2006, to be repaid over many years with the revenue generated from the room and board. We must also continue to focus on the twin goals of increasing our endowment through leadership gifts and augmenting our annual funds to support the increase in our operating expenses that a new building represents. Taking on additional debt of this magnitude must always be done with caution; however, we are confident that our financial plan is sound. The need for more housing is urgent if we are to maintain a high-quality residential experience for our students. So the next time you visit our beautiful campus, you may find us living with the noise and mud of major construction projects. Though never convenient, these are exciting signs of progress toward our goal of making sure that Spelman College is nothing less than the best – strong and vital well into the 21st century. ●
Hip Hop Week at Spelman College
A Critical Analysis and Celebration of the Culture
S
pelman College and hip hop pioneer MC Lyte joined forces, October 31 – November 4, 2005, to host a series of events focused on women and hip hop, and the impact this popular culture is having on youth in urban, suburban, rural and global communities. The weeklong series included panel discussions, guest lectures, events organized by the student organizations SisterFire and The Hip Hop Collective, a conversation between Cosby Endowed Professor Pearl Cleage and hip hop pioneer MC Lyte, a surprise performance by musical artist India.Arie and an impromptu performance demonstrating the finer points of rapping by MC Lyte. During the conversation between Pearl Cleage and MC Lyte, author/playwright/feminist/ activist Cleage asked MC Lyte about the role race plays in relation to the images and messages that are popular in hip hop today. “White kids in the suburbs are making hip hop popular . . . being one of its largest consumer groups,” explained Lyte. “Young white consumers are making these artists popular and getting them on the cover of national magazines.” In addition, Lyte opined that young women “are not

quite sure what behavior is acceptable from young men, and they’re getting their answers from hip hop music and videos.” Cleage asked what special role students of historically Black colleges and universities can
play in countering the negative images that are popularized in some hip hop music and videos. Lyte responded, “They can get involved with elementary and middle school students and offer them their knowledge. They can give the kids something to look up to by getting involved in the community.” The week of activities was especially meaningful in the wake of the October 12, 2005, passing of C. Delores Tucker, who was one of the first Black women to candidly and publicly address the issue of negative, hypersexual imagery in hip hop music on a national scale. Other special guests who participated in Hip Hop Week programs included rap artists Chuck D., Cheryl “Salt” James, YoYo, Da Brat, actor/ musician Malcolm Jamal Warner, actor Darryl “Chill” Mitchell, hip hop historian/journalist/ DJ Davey D. and cultural critic Joan Morgan (author of When Chickenheads Come Home to Roost: A Hip Hop Feminist Breaks It Down) as well as Paul Porter, filmmaker Byron Hurt and Spelman College faculty members William Jelani Cobb, assistant professor of history, and Dr. Tarshia Stanley, assistant professor of English. A remarkable success, Hip Hop Week attracted more than 2,500 students and guests from the community at large, and generated national media coverage in such outlets as CNN, BET, National Public Radio, the Atlanta JournalConstitution, CBS 46, Fox 5, WSB-TV, WXIA-11 Alive, and the Associated Press Wire Service. ●

TWO TIMES THREE
Class of 2009 Boasts Three Sets of Twin Biology Majors
A
ll Spelman women are sisters in spirit. Some Spelman women are sisters by birth. However, for a select few Spelman freshmen women, sisterhood has become something exponential, transcending body and spirit. These would be three sets of twins. Fall semester, these three sets of twins presented Spelman College with a unique equation – all of these freshmen siblings are biology majors. It would take a geneticist, a mathematician, and a genealogist working together to calculate the odds of this happening at a small, private, historically Black, women’s college in the laboratories of the AlbroManley-Falconer Science Center. Indeed, Sasha and Asia Curry, Britney and Whitney Hale, and Megan and Morgan Hall are excited to be at Spelman and glad to share the experience with a twin sister. Although none of the girls has close friends or family members who are alumnae, they were all drawn to Spelman for the same reasons. Attending a historically Black college was high on their list. Experiencing life in Atlanta was a close second. “We wanted to go away to college, without being too far from home,” explained fraternal twins Asia and Sasha Curry, from Columbus, Georgia. They felt that Spelman would give them the right balance of independence and

security as they transitioned from adolescence to adulthood. The sisters share a dormitory room – and the same class schedule. Fraternal twins Whitney and Britney Hale live with a bit more autonomy, as they were frequently placed in separate classes while growing up. One year, they even attended separate schools, but they were clear about attending the same college. Of all the colleges that accepted both girls, Spelman was tops. While attending Spelbound, they were drawn to campus life and recognized the value of attending an HBCU. “Even though we share a room, it’s not like we just have to be together all the time, ’cause we

Multiple births are, after all, on the rise. Between 1980 and 1999, the overall multiple birth ratio increased 59 percent, according to the March of Dimes. The highest rate of fraternal twins, at about one in 70, occurs among African Americans. The Yoruba tribe of Nigeria has the highest twinning rate in the world, with one set of twins in every 24 births. Among our

Like any sisters, the twins talk about having typical sibling rivalries – which one is smarter, who has the best hair, and which is the shy one and who’s more outgoing – but their loyalty to one another is abundantly clear. And, while they each possess a sense of individuality, there’s no denying their special bond. Get them all talking together, and you’ll witness communication on a uniquely shared wavelength. The subject of biology invariably comes up.

own twins, only the Curry family has an extensive family history of multiple births. None of their mothers took fertility drugs. Is all this what inspired our twins to study zygotes, genomes and nature vs. nurture? They would say not really – at least, not yet. For now, Asia and Sasha want to work with infants or young children as nurse practitioners or pediatricians. Britney and Whitney would like to be physicians, and Morgan and Megan would like to study obstetrics and gynecology at Emory University School of Medicine. After school, each expects to share a practice with her twin.

Greetings: The generosity of the donors listed on the 2004–2005 Honor Roll is the primary reason that Spelman College can continue its noble work as the leading educator of women of African descent. These gifts directly impact the educational experiences of young scholars at Spelman, who go forth qualified and equipped to lead and serve. Our wish is for every contributor to understand and know that investing in Spelman offers a rate of return far greater than one could ever imagine. Thank you for taking advantage of this and every opportunity to support the College. For the good of Spelman,

12 SPELMAN COLLEGE ANNUAL REPORT
Reunion 2005 Alumnae Donors Recognized at Spelman Donor Appreciation Reception Each year, Spelman honors alumnae during their reunion year whose giving provides the lifeblood of the College. At the Donor Appreciation Reception, the College takes the opportunity to honor the philanthropic spirit of alumnae. Throughout the celebration, Spelman’s message is that every gift counts and that the combined giving from alumnae donors provides a solid financial foundation for the College. Special recognition was given to those who were members of the 1881 Society. Donors who made gifts of $5,000 or more and Guardian Society members (those who made provisions for Spelman to receive planned gifts) were acknowledged during a special festooning ceremony where they received silk scarves commissioned by the College for this occasion.

Sisters Chapel Campaign Supporters Recognized The newly renovated historic Sisters Chapel was officially presented to the Spelman community, alumnae and friends of the College on Saturday, September 24, 2005. Since 1927, Sisters Chapel has served as a catalyst for leadership development and has been the spiritual center of the Spelman community. The Rededication Program, which began a two-day celebration, paid special tribute to the 638 donors who contributed over $3.5 million to the Sisters Chapel Campaign – Revival of the Spirit; more than 500 of the donors were alumnae. Through the generosity of these donors, the integrity of Sisters Chapel will be preserved for years to come thereby enabling Spelman College to continue to embrace its students as well as the Atlanta community. Donors to each of the Campaign’s naming opportunities (from $100 - $1 million) were recognized and presented with appreciation gifts.

Planned Gifts
A Source for Increased Scholarship Support Alumnae and friends of the College are providing scholarship assistance for Spelman students through planned gifts. Cherie Stawasz, the owner of a New York public relations firm, had never visited Spelman’s campus nor was she acquainted with a professor or alumnae of the College. However, she heard of Spelman and identified with its mission to empower young women of color. While terminally ill, she made provisions for the College to receive a bequest of $737,188 for scholarship support from her estate. Ms. Stawasz succumbed to cancer in 2004. The Ida Gartrell Peterson and Roosevelt Peterson Endowed Scholarship was established under the terms of the will of the late Dr. Ida Gartrell Peterson, C’46. Dr. Peterson was a former Spelman College faculty member. Distributions from the trust totaled $87,000 to date and will provide scholarships for students pursuing a degree in education.

“Will Ever Faithful Be… Throughout Eternity” These words from our noble hymn, sung by many Spelman women throughout history, communicates to us that we, as daughters of our dear alma mater, must be faithful, diligent, and enthusiastic to assist our institution in whatever way possible to ensure its duration… throughout eternity. As a recent graduate of Spelman College Class of 2004, I can recall my encounter with dear Spelman as I made my way to my dorm. The feelings of angst, excitement and somewhat of sorrow all filled me as I said goodbye to my weeping parents and embraced an experience that would eventually change me forever. My four years are very memorable, but more than anything, I remember my professors that would not let me quit, who pushed me to my highest and most immense potential, and refused to have anything less than my best. And as I reflect on my many experiences, I realize that my good days far outweighed the bad ones. I made lifelong friendships with some of the greatest women the world has seen. We were taught by some of the most passionate and well-renowned professors in their respective fields of knowledge, and we are well prepared. Spelman has prepared me for future endeavors in regards to my career goals, but more than anything, I am prepared for my destiny. I say this most sincerely, “If it were not for Spelman, where would I be?” For all of these reasons, I give back to Spelman College. I feel I owe Spelman, my alma mater, my financial support and gratitude. I will continue to give back, because Spelman has given so much to me. Tamika L. Sea, Class of 2004 made her first gift to Spelman College as an alumna in the 2004-2005 fiscal year. She is a second-year medical student at University of Tennessee Memphis, where she plans to become an OB-GYN.

Spelman College and Pfizer, Inc: A Partnership to Improve Global Women’s Health African American and other women of color disproportionately suffer from what the National Institutes of Health have described as the “burden of disease and death.” HIV/AIDS, obesity, diabetes, kidney failure, heart disease, and breast and cervical cancer are among a litany of often preventable diseases which increasing impact Black women, robbing our families, communities, and the nation of leadership and talent. As part of its commitment to corporate citizenship and community improvement, Pfizer, Inc. has awarded the Spelman College Women’s Research and Resource Center a $300,000 grant focused on Global Women’s Health. The project’s goal is to focus attention on the health status of African-descended and other women of color and to make a positive impact through collaborative research, curriculum development, and service-learning efforts. The grant also supports the women’s health concentration, the newest component of the Comparative Women’s Studies major. Prof. Aline Gubrium, Assistant Professor of Women’s Studies, has been hired to teach courses related to women’s health, while Dr. Lisa Egbuonu-Davis, the first Pfizer Medical Scholar-in-Residence, teaches a seminar on “Health Disparities,” and spearheads the inaugural Pfizer Lecture Series. As part of that series, Elizabeth Ofili, M.D., M.P.H., Director of Clinical Research Center and Chief of Cardiology at the Morehouse School of Medicine, spoke to a standing-room only audience of faculty and students on “African American Women and Cardiovascular Health.” The second lecturer was Claudia Baquet, M.D., M.P.H., Professor of Medicine, Associate Dean for Policy and Planning, and Director of the University of Maryland’s Medical School Center for Health Disparities Research Outreach and Training, who spoke on “Reducing Cancer Health Disparities.” *Indicates 1881 Society Membership
Other the next three years, the Women’s Center will implement a number of other activities, including a week-long Summer Institute in 2007 to help faculty at other HBCUs explore strategies for incorporating women’s health issues into the social sciences, humanities, and natural sciences curricula at their respective institutions. One of the most rewarding aspects of the Global Women’s Health project is the support it provides to students. Adrienne Brown, a 2005 computer science graduate of Spelman, was the first Pfizer Scholar. Brown received support for study this summer at the University of Cape Town, South Africa before entering a doctoral program in biomedical engineering where she hopes to research health technologies that improve women’s health. The Women’s Center will name two additional undergraduate Pfizer Scholars this academic year and another six before the grant concludes in 2007. The culminating event of the project is a studentorganized conference on women’s health. The Pfizer Global Women’s Health initiative continues Spelman’s long history of producing African American women in science and the health professions. Georgia Dwelle Rooks, the first Spelman alumna to attend medical school and founder of the first obstetrical hospital for black women in the city of Atlanta, is representative of this long standing tradition. The Pfizer project is under the direction of Beverly Guy-Sheftall, the Anna Julia Cooper Professor of Women’s Studies and Director of the Women’s Research and Resource Center. The Women’s Center has been engaged in similar efforts to foster cross disciplinary collaborations between the humanities, social sciences and natural sciences, as well as facilitate collaborations with other universities and organizations in the area of women’s health. In 1999,
the Women’s Center receive a $250,000 grant from the Ford Foundation to strengthen the women’s studies major by inaugurating a new women’s health concentration and enhancing the natural sciences curricula by mainstreaming a range of race and gender issues into the natural science curricula. More recently, the Women’s Center, with support from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), ExxonMobil and Pfizer sponsored an international conference on “Women, Girls, and HIV/AIDS in Africa and the African Diaspora,” which took place in June 2004. Delegations of scholars, healthcare professionals, community activists, graduate students and women living with AIDS attended from the Caribbean, Brazil, South Africa, and West Africa. Pfizer, Inc. is the world’s largest researchbased pharmaceutical firm devoted to healthcare. In May, the Pfizer Foundation announced a new grant program aimed at preventing the spread of HIV/AIDS in the southern United States, with particular focus on under-served African-American and Latino communities in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Texas. “Comprehensive HIV/AIDS prevention programs focused on communities most at risk are our best defense against this deadly disease,” said Hank McKinnell, member of The Pfizer Foundation Board of Directors and Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Pfizer Inc. “By partnering with organizations in small towns and big cities across the South, we hope to help slow the increasing incidence of HIV/AIDS.” The Pfizer project enables Spelman College to contribute to the eradication of HIV/AIDS and other diseases that disproportionately impact people of color around the globe.

A life remembered through the Dr. Tujuana Davie Badgett Scholarship The Dr. Tujuana Davie Badgett Memorial Scholarship Fund was established in June 2004 to commemorate the life of Tujuana Davie Badgett C’89. Margie Davie started the Badgett Scholarship which provides financial assistance to a Spelman student pursuing a career in medicine to honor her late daughter. Tujuana graduated from Newnan High in 1985 and remains the only Black valedictorian in the school’s history. She completed her undergraduate degree from Spelman in three years and graduated magna cum laude. She was accepted for early admission to Boston University School of Medicine and served as chief resident of Ob-Gyn at the University for three years. Torrice Davie Smith, sister of Tujuana, is happy the scholarship will honor her successful, caring and well-respected sister. “She really excelled at Spelman,” she said of Tujuana. “When my sister passed last year, we wanted to do something that would keep her alive in everyone’s memory. The object is to aid a Spelman student en route to her goal of becoming a medical professional,” “Tujuana was a very giving person. We wanted to continue that process of giving because Spelman gave her so much,” says Mrs. Davie. The family will continue to raise funds to support and increase the scholarship fund in order to endow the scholarship in the future. The family attended the Honors Convocation and Scholarship Appreciation Luncheon in April 2005 where they met the first recipient of the Dr. Tujuana Davie Badgett Memorial Scholarship, LaTiffany Gordon, a biology/pre-med major. She has a 3.7 grade point average and received a $2,000 award to further her studies. LaTiffany’s goal is to become a trauma surgeon and to give back to the world what has been invested in her future.
