Snyder Field
Snyder Field
In 1996, with the construction of Gibbs Stadium for the football team, Snyder Field underwent a near-complete renovation. Included in the changes were a widening of the field to make it one of the top soccer-specific stadiums in the southeast. The Wofford men’s and women’s teams have made Snyder Field home since the 1996 season. Located between the Richardson Building, the Campus Life Building and Russell C. King Field, Snyder Field is centrally located on campus. The Wofford men’s soccer team played on Snyder Field until the 1989 season, when they moved to the Terrier Soccer Complex. The facility is named for former Wofford president Henry Nelson Snyder (19021942) and can seat 2,250 in bleachers. Additional standing-room areas are located around the perimeter of the facility.

THE TERRIER SCULPTURE
A sculpture of a Terrier was unveiled on March 25, 2008 outside of the Student Life Building as a gift to Wofford College from the Class of 1956. The following is the text of an address given by Talmage Boyd Skinner, Jr., 1956, Chaplain Emeritus of Wofford College on the dedication. The mascot of a college should, in large measure, represent the character of the place. In this Palmetto State, we are surrounded by a bevy of mascots. There are Gamecocks and Tigers, Bulldogs and a Rooster named Chanticleer, Indians, Paladins, Cougars, Valkyries, and one school has a sock for an ensign. There are Trojans, Pioneers, and Spartans, and various Cats and feathered creatures. In all the land, only two other schools are Terriers. Some will laugh when we affirm that we are the only true Terriers. Some chuckle when we are audacious enough to claim to be unique and even superior in so many aspects of being a college. The most arrogant of us will admit that there are many good colleges. We have even tried to copy some. I have always been a bit uncomfortable when we talk of another school being a – “flagship” that we need to emulate. Hey! We ARE the flagship! Forgive the pride of some old guys who have loved this little school for over half a century. Yes, we did not come to Wofford just to purchase an education; we joined Wofford. We were adopted into the family with a bond that cannot be broken. Many colleges claim to be family. We truly are. Ours is a bond of shared experience hammered out on the playing fields against foes our size and those with more students than we have living alumni. It does not stop with athletics. The term “student athlete” has authenticity at Wofford. The bond is from a shared academic experience that is not content just to pass on socalled facts, but prepares students to think and to continue to grow. The “proof of the pudding” is in the doctors, lawyers, college presidents and professors, teachers, coaches, leaders in business and service - even in the ministry of the Church. A bond is created in the experience of the arts - the theater program, choral music, strings. One thing we lack - a band - not just the band class that plays well once or twice a year, but a BAND for spirit and musical experience. A bond is created through service programs and the physical arts witnessed by so many exhibitions on campus. Not the least is a religious life program that is open and tolerant, that walks with students seeking answers and helps them first learn to ask questions. We, the Class of 1956 present this Terrier to our college as a symbol of Wofford Spirit in all aspects of this place like no other. We want to add to the tradition of this sacred ground. We want to remind the present Wofford that there is a past on which she stands and remind all of us that it all will be forgotten if we do not have a vision for the future. Our goal should be deeper than the usual quest for reputation, wealth, and prestige. Dr. Dunlap has always called Wofford a “kingdom of the just.” May that ever be our watchword. It may be a simple, unsophisticated phrase, but we are called not to be powerful, but good. As the prophet Micah said, “What does the Lord require of you but to do justice and to love kindness and to walk humbly with your God.” The Class of 1956 proudly and humbly presents this physical representation of the Spirit of Wofford College and all those members of our family who ever lived or presently live on the “City’s Northern Border,” and all who are yet to dwell in the shadow of the Twin Towers.

Wofford Administration Dr. Benjamin Dunlap
Richard Johnson
president
Athletic Director
Dr. Benjamin Bernard Dunlap took office as Wofford’s president in July 2000, becoming only the 10th chief executive in the 150-year history of the Phi Beta Kappa liberal arts college. After graduating summa cum laude from Sewanee: The University of the South in 1959, he attended Oxford University as a Rhodes Scholar and Harvard University as a graduate student in English language and literature, receiving his PhD in 1967. Since that time, he has held academic appointments at Harvard, the University of South Carolina and Wofford College, where for seven years prior to becoming president he served as the Chapman Family Professor in the Humanities, a position he still holds. He has twice served as a Fulbright Senior Lecturer in Bangkok, Thailand, and Chiang Mai, Thailand, and was a member of the inaugural class of U.S.-Japan Leadership Fellows in Tokyo. Dunlap’s academic fields include literature, intellectual history, Asian studies, film history and criticism, fiction writing, and the arts. On those subjects and others, especially higher education, he has lectured and spoken widely in this country and abroad. A frequent moderator for the Aspen Institute’s Executive and C.E.O. Seminars as well as its Henry Crown Fellowship and such affiliated programs as the Executive Seminar Asia, the Faculty Seminars at Wye, the Aspen-Rodel Fellowship, the Africa Leadership Initiative, the Central European Leadership Initiative, and the Liberty Fellowship of South Carolina, he has also designed and moderated seminars in Europe, Africa, and the United States for corporate clients as varied as the Netflix Corporation, Young & Rubicam, the Nova Chemical Corporation, and the Arab Banking Corporation. Dunlap’s many publications include poems, essays, anthologies, guides, and opera libretti. As a writer-producer and on-camera talent for public television, he has been a major contributor to more than 200 programs, for which he has won numerous national and international awards. For four and a half years in the 1970’s and 80’s, he performed as soloist and principal dancer for the Columbia City Ballet. Frequently recognized for both teaching and research, he has recently completed a novel, Famous Dogs of the Civil War, which awaits publication. Since 1963, he has been married to Anne Boyd Dunlap. They have three grown children, are partial to large rambunctious dogs as well as terriers, and enjoy life in the historic President’s House on the Wofford College campus. In 2006, he was awarded an honorary doctorate by his alma mater, Sewanee: The University of the South. In March 2007, Dunlap was a presenter at the prestigious TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) conference in Monterey, Calif., as one of the world’s “50 Remarkable People” asked to share what they are passionate about. Among the presenters were former President Bill Clinton, former NBA star and author Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Nobel Laureate Murray Gell-Mann, and Richard Branson, founder of the Virgin Group. In April 2007, Dunlap was the honoree at the annual Toast of the Town fundraiser for The Salvation Army in Spartanburg, with some 800 guests attending the toast-and-roast event.
Richard Johnson is in his ninth year as director of athletics at
2009 Wofford Men’s Soccer Media Guide
Wofford College. The former head basketball coach has been an instrumental figure on campus for over 25 years. Johnson officially began his new duties on Dec. 3, 2001. In 17 years as head basketball coach at Wofford (1985-2002), Johnson had a 100 percent graduation rate for all players who completed their eligibility under him. He was the runner-up for SoCon Coach of the Year honors twice in the Terriers’ five seasons of league play under him. His 200th win was a 79-74 victory at Clemson during the 1999-2000 campaign. A 1976 graduate of The Citadel, Johnson came to Wofford after serving nine years as a basketball assistant at his alma mater under then-coach and now athletic director Les Robinson. Johnson also holds an MBA from The Citadel. During his Wofford coaching tenure, Johnson guided the Terriers from NAIA membership to NCAA Division II in 1988, Division I Independent status in 1995 and the Southern Conference in 1997. Over the past several years as athletic director, he also has been a driving force behind the development of several facility projects. Russell C. King Field and Switzer Stadium returned baseball to campus in 2003. The Richardson Building was renovated in 2008, while the Joe E. Taylor Athletic Building and a golf practice facility were completed in 2009. Johnson has also been responsible for the growth of the athletic endowment, with a long-term goal of endowing all scholarships in the department. He currently chairs the Southern Conference’s men’s basketball committee and is a member of the NCAA’s Men’s Basketball Issues Committee. Johnson and his wife Carol, have two daughters, Lindsay and Lauren, and a son, Rich. Lindsay is a 2001 Wofford graduate, Lauren graduated from Wofford in 2003 and Rich is a freshman at the University of the South. The Johnsons also have three grandchildren. Lindsay and Brad Lowry are the parents of Louisa and Brady Lowry, while Lauren and Reece McWilliams are the parents of Mac McWilliams.
Dr. Jameica Hill Faculty Athletic Representative Dr. Jameica Hill, a professor of chemistry, is in her fourth year as the Faculty Athletic Representative (FAR) at Wofford. In her role as the FAR, Dr. Hill represents Wofford to the National Collegiate Athletic Association and the Southern Conference. The FAR is responsible for certifying the eligibility of student-athletes and assuring integrity in the eligibility process. In addition to supervising athletics policies, the FAR also serves as a liaison between the faculty and the student athletes, looking out for their individual well-being with regard to academics and athletics. Hill, a native of Due West, S.C. and a member of Phi Beta Kappa, earned her Ph.D. degree in inorganic chemistry at Clemson University, where she was a Graduate Teaching Assistant of the Year. She received Wofford’s 1995 Martin Luther King Jr. Humanitarian Award and was also an associate director for a summer program that was funded by a grant from the Howard Hughes Medical Center. Hill’s interest in athletics has been a lifelong one. Her father was a high school coach, and her two children are competitive in many different sports. As a professor at Wofford and the wife of Jason Hill ’89, a former Wofford quarterback and assistant coach, Hill has always supported Terrier athletics. Her daughter Shelby is active in competitive cheerleading (Level 5), while her son J.L. plays football as well as AAU basketball on a team based in Charlotte. Hill was also a cheerleader for the football and basketball teams as a student at Wofford.
The hub city
Spartanburg
The City’s origins predate the Revolutionary War. Spartanburg was named for a unit of American Revolution forces called the “Spartan Rifles” who helped defeat the British at the Battle of Cowpens in 1781, under the leadership of General Daniel Morgan. The town of Spartanburg was incorporated in 1831 and later as a city in 1880 by the 13 Original States and Tennessee. During this time Spartanburg was booming due in large part to the rapidly expanding textile industry. The town grew quickly with many moving into mill villages to staff the mills. In the 1870s, Spartanburg became a railroad “hub city,” with mainline railroads extending from Magnolia Street depot in all directions, taking passengers and freight to Charleston, Augusta, Atlanta, Asheville, Charlotte and points beyond. As many as 90 trains per day could be seen and heard operating in Spartanburg during the golden age of the American railroad, 1900-20. During the 1920s, Spartanburg built South Caro lina’s first municipal airport and claimed the state’s first commercial radio station (WSPA). Its leadership in the state was reflected by the election of several residents as governor. Thousands of U.S. soldiers bound for overseas service in World Wars I and II trained at camps in Spartanburg. The post headquarters for Camp Wadsworth (1917-19) was located at the present site of WestGate Mall, and the Camp Croft (1940-45) was located south of the city. Much of that military reservation has become Croft State Park. After World War II, Spartanburg made a concerted effort to promote its location at the junction of Interstate highways 85 and 26 to international business. One of the greatest successes of this campaign was the development of the BMW manufacturing center in western Spartanburg County, near the Greenville-Spartanburg Airport. Spartanburg’s downtown, which always has been anchored by the campuses of Wofford and Converse Colleges, has been undergoing a major revival since the mid-1990s. In addition to the corporate headquarters for Denny’s, Advance America, QS-1 and several other companies, the city has acquired a magnificant public library, the Marriott Hotel at Renaissance Park and most recently, the Chapman Arts Center. The area surrounding Morgan Square gradually is redeveloping with a variety of interesting restaurants and urban apartment-style housing. Throughout the 20th century, textile manufac turing companies formed the backbone of the Spartanburg economy. The most significant of these companies still in operation is internationally respected Milliken & Company. Blessed by geography and climate as well as by energetic and well-educated citizenry, Spartanburg is emerging as one of the centers of a 21st century metroplex that extends along the South Carolina portion of the I-85 corridor.

Phi Beta Kappa At the end of the last academic year, there were approximately 2,000 four-year colleges in the United States. Only 262 of them have the right to induct their graduates into Phi Beta Kappa, the nation’s most prestigious liberal arts honor society. There are five independent Phi Beta Kappa colleges and universities in the Carolinas: Wofford, Davidson, Duke, Furman and Wake Forest. Phi Beta Kappa has an interesting history. Founded at the College of William and Mary in December 1776, Phi Beta Kappa was the first of the Greek letter fraternities and adopted such rituals as the badge, the secret oath, and the special handclasp from the various secret societies of the day. Phi Beta Kappa, however, was also devoted to the principles of “friendship, morality, and literature (or learning),” and these characteristics gradually attained the greatest emphasis. John Quincy Adams, Edward Everett and Joseph Story, members of the Harvard chapter, are credited with making the fraternity a public literary and honor society for undergraduates in the 1830’s. Women were first admitted to Phi Beta Kappa in 1875 at the University of Vermont. Only two chapters of Phi Beta Kappa existed in the Southeast before 1900, but gradually the historic state universities and the most outstanding private colleges began to secure chapters. The process of earning a charter often takes many years and standards are very high. Final approval comes by vote of all the chapters at the triennial meetings of the United Chapters of Phi Beta Kappa. At the August 1994 triennial meeting in San Francisco, 53 colleges and universities sought chapters, but only seven institutions even qualified for a vote. Wofford received its chapter at the 1940 triennial meeting, bringing to fruition more than ten years of work by three Phi Beta Kappa members who were then serving on the faculty: President Henry Nelson Snyder, Dr. David Duncan Wallace, class of 1894, and Dr. John West Harris ’16, a brash and brilliant young English professor not afraid to campaign
Clark Powell ‘09 is the latest men’s soccer player to be inducted into Phi Beta Kappa at Wofford. He is the ninth student-athlete from men’s soccer and the first since 2006. Powell, from Birmingham, Alabama, graduated magna cum laude with a double major in biology and Spanish.
vigorously in the conviction that his alma mater deserved membership. (Dr. Harris later founded the National Beta Club, which still has its headquarters in Spartanburg). With about 350,000 members across the country, Phi Beta Kappa today sponsors numerous programs to encourage scholarship and learning, including the Phi Beta Kappa Book Awards and the visiting scholar, academic fellowship
and leadership programs. The society’s official journal is The American Scholar, a quarterly magazine featuring articles of cultural and intellectual interest. For these reasons, Phi Beta Kappa Day at Wofford has institutional significance, as well as being especially memorable for the new members, each of whom will receive the traditional Phi Beta Kappa watch key or pin.

The Southern Conference The Southern Conference, which began its 89th season of intercollegiate competition in 2009, is a national leader in emphasizing the development of the student-athlete and in helping to build lifelong leaders and role models. The Southern Conference has been on the forefront of innovation and originality in developing creative solutions to address issues facing intercollegiate athletics. From establishing the first conference basketball tournament (1921), tackling the issue of freshmen eligibility (1922), developing women’s championships (1984), to becoming the first conference to install the three-point goal in basketball (1980), the Southern Conference has been a pioneer. The Southern Conference is the nation’s fifth-oldest NCAA Division I collegiate athletic association. Only the Big Ten (1896), the Missouri Valley (1907), the Pacific 10 (1915) and the Southwestern Athletic (1920) conferences are older in terms of origination. Academic excellence has been a major part of the Southern Conference’s tradition. Hundreds of Southern Conference student-athletes have been recognized on ESPN The Magazine/ CoSIDA Academic All-America and all-district teams. A total of 19 Rhodes Scholarship winners have been selected from conference institutions. The Conference currently consists of 12 members in five states throughout the Southeast and sponsors 19 varsity sports and championships that produce participants for NCAA Division I Championships. The Southern Conference offices are located in the historic Beaumont Mill in Spartanburg, S.C. A textile mill that was in operation from 1880 until 1999, Beaumont Mill was renovated in 2004 and today offers the league first class meeting areas and offices as well as a spacious library for storage of the conference’s historical documents. Membership History On Feb. 25, 1921, representatives from 14 of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association’s (SIAA) 30 members met at Atlanta’s Piedmont Hotel to establish the Southern Intercollegiate Conference. On hand at the inaugural meeting were officials from Alabama, Alabama Polytechnic Institute (Auburn), Clemson, Georgia, Georgia School of Technology (Georgia Tech), Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi A&M (Mississippi State), North Carolina, North Carolina State, Tennessee, Virginia, Virginia Polytechnic Institute (Virginia Tech) and Washington & Lee. Dr. S.V. Sanford of Georgia was chosen as acting chairman
and N.W. Dougherty of Tennessee was named secretary. The decision to form a new athletic conference was motivated by the desire to have a workable number of conference games for each league member. With 30 schools in the SIAA by the early 1920s, it was impossible to play every school at least once during the regular season and many schools went several years between playing some conference members. In addition, in 1920, the SIAA voted down proposed rules that an athlete must be in a college a year before playing on its teams and refused to abolish a rule permitting athletes to play summer baseball for money. Play began in the fall of 1921 and a year later, six more schools joined the fledgling league including Tulane (which had attended the inaugural meeting but had elected not to join), Florida, Louisiana (LSU), Mississippi, South Carolina and Vanderbilt. VMI joined in 1925 and Duke was added in 1929. By the 1930s, membership in the Southern Conference had reached 23 schools. C.P. “Sally” Miles of Virginia Tech, president of the Southern Conference, called the annual league meeting to order on Dec. 9, 1932 at the Farragut Hotel in Knoxville, Tenn. Georgia’s Dr. Sanford announced that 13 institutions west and south of the Appalachian Mountains were reorganizing as the Southeastern Conference. Members of the new league included Alabama, Alabama Polytechnic Institute, Florida, Georgia, Georgia School of Technology, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Mississippi A&M, University of the South, Tennessee, Tulane and Vanderbilt. According to the minutes of the meeting, Dr. Sanford stated that the division was made along geographical lines. Florida’s Dr. J.J. Tigert, acting as spokesman for the withdrawing group, regretted the move but believed it was necessary as the Southern Conference had grown too large. The resignations were accepted and the withdrawing schools formed the new league which began play in 1932. The Southern Conference continued with membership of 10 institutions including Clemson, Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, North Carolina State, South Carolina, Virginia, VMI, Virginia Tech and Washington & Lee. The second major shift occurred some 20 years later. By 1952, the Southern Conference included 17 colleges and universities. Another split occurred when seven schools including Clemson, Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, North Carolina State, South Carolina and Wake Forest departed to form the Atlantic Coast Conference which began play in 1953. The revamped Southern Conference included members The Citadel, Davidson, Furman, George Washington, Richmond, VMI, Virginia Tech, Washington & Lee, West Virginia and William & Mary.

Today, the league continues to thrive with a membership that includes 12 institutions and a footprint that spans five states: Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama and Georgia. Current league members are Appalachian State, College of Charleston, The Citadel, Davidson, Elon, Furman, Georgia Southern, UNC Greensboro, Samford, Chattanooga, Western Carolina and Wofford. Championship History The first Southern Conference Championship was the league basketball tournament held in Atlanta in 1922. The North Carolina Tar Heels won the tournament to become the first recognized league champion in any sport. The Southern Conference Tournament remains the oldest of its kind in college basketball. Commissioner Germann spearheaded the Southern Conference’s expansion to include women’s athletics during the 1983-84 season. That year, league championships were held in volleyball, basketball and tennis. Cross country joined the mix in 1985 and the league began holding indoor and outdoor track championships in 1988. Most recently, the conference instituted golf and softball championships in the spring of 1994 and added soccer in the fall of 1994. The Southern Conference declares champions in 10 men’s sports - football, soccer, cross country, basketball, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field, wrestling, baseball, tennis and golf - and nine women’s sports - soccer, volleyball, cross country, basketball, indoor track and field, outdoor track & field, tennis, golf and softball. The Southern Conference office is located in the refurbished Beaumont Mill in Spartanburg, less than a mile from the Wofford campus.
