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 TERRIER THROUGH THE YEARS

The Wofford Terrier logo has seen numerous variations through the years. Below are several of those logos from the past.

Wofford College Mission Statement

Wofford’s mission is to provide superior liberal arts education that prepares its students for extraordinary and positive contributions to society. The focus of Wofford’s mission is upon fostering commitment to excellence in character, performance, leadership, service to others and life-long learning.

NCAA COMPLIANCE

The importance of following all NCAA rules and regulations is imperative to maintaining the integrity of Wofford College and intercollegiate athletics. We ask all who are associated with the institutions athletics programs to help the College protect the spirit of competition, the athletics eligibility of our student-athletes and the reputation of the College by adhering to the rules and regulations of the NCAA and by contacting the Compliance Office or the NCAA with all questions. If you have any questions about NCAA rules, please contact Elizabeth Rabb at (864) 597-4090, the Wofford website at woffordterriers.com and click on ‘Compliance,’ or the NCAA at www.ncaa.org. What is a Representative of Athletics Interests (Booster/Donor)? All alumni, friends, and employees of the College are categorized as ‘representatives of athletics interest.’ The NCAA stipulates that once an individual has been identified as a ‘representative’ or “booster/donor” he/she retains this status forever even if the individual is no longer associated with the athletics program. Furthermore the NCAA states that it is possible for a person to be a representative of more than one institution at the same time. A representative of athletics interest may not: • Contact a prospect’s coach, principal or counselor in an effort to evaluate a prospect • Visit the prospect’s institution to pick up film or transcripts • Contact a prospect, his/her parents, legal guardians or spouse on or off campus • Contact a prospect by telephone or letter • Make special arrangements to entertain a recruit • Provide extra benefits to a prospect, student-athlete or the parents, family and/ or guardians of the prospects or student-athletes

2014-15 Wofford Men’s Golf Media Guide

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 is 70 miles west of Charlotte on I-85, and presents all the reasons why there is something special about taking the team on the road for camp. Three pristine, Bermuda-grass fields with a stand of tall pines on two sides and a steep hillside -- where fans sit and watch -on another. Fans, many of them young boys and girls, lined up along the fence, getting autographs after practice. It’s a scene straight out of football’s past.”

Vic Lipscomb

Head Coach - 11th Season Wofford ‘70 Vic Lipscomb is in his 11th season as Wofford’s head men’s golf coach in 2014-15. He has guided the Terriers to four tournament victories, six runner-up finishes and 25 top-fives in his tenure with the Terriers, as well as six individual tournament championships. The 2013-14 year was one to remember for Lipscomb’s program, coaching the Terriers to two tournament victories and new school records. The first victory came at the Donald Ross Intercollegiate (Oct. 14-15), where Wofford shot a 16-under-par 824 to shatter the 54-hole program record of 846 set in 2009. The Terriers took home the individual championship as well, with senior George Perkovich earning medalist honors at 8-under 202. A few weeks later, Wofford won its second tournament of the fall, taking home the title at the Hummingbird Intercollegiate (Nov. 3-5) and overcoming a four-stroke final-round deficit to do so. The spring of 2014 saw the Terriers earn two more top-five finishes, first taking fifth of 14 teams at the Davidson Invitational (March 3-4) and later earning third in the 15-team field at the 26th Coca-Cola Wofford Invitational (April 14-15). Wofford completed its home tournament with a 24-under-par 840, breaking the program record for a tournament score in relation to par of 18-under at the 2009 Sea Trail Intercollegiate. Freshman Andrew Novak finished tied for second with an 8-under 208. At the SoCon Championship (April 20-22), hosted at Pinehurst National, junior Cory Taylor shot a final-round 6-under 66 to earn sixth place, while the Terriers finished seventh. At the conclusion of the tournament, Novak was named to the SoCon All-Freshman Team.Last year, the 2012-13 squad’s season was highlighted by five Top 5 finishes, including second place at the Coca-Cola Wofford Intercollegiate. Other top finishes included third at the Donald Ross Intercollegiate, fourth at the Cobra PUMA Invitational, fifth at the Hummingbird Intercollegiate and fifth at the Forest Hills Collegiate. In 2011-12, the Terriers finished in the top ten in five tournaments highlighted by a fourth place finish at the Southern

Conference Championship. It was the Terriers best finish since the 2007 SoCon Championship. Freshman, Brannan Hudson finished in second place with a 218. He was Wofford’s highest individual finisher since the 2003 season when Daniel Sloan finished in a tie for fifth place. Lipscomb’s 2010-11 team finished in the top ten in eight tournaments including first at the Davidson College Invitational. Wofford took sixth that season at the SoCon Championship, while Chandler Brazeal competed for the Terriers in the NCAA Southeast Regional and was named SoCon Freshman of the Year. Brazeal and teammate Brent McKenzie earn All-SoCon Honors. In 2009-10, his Terriers placed in the top five in six tournaments throughout the season. They took ninth at the SoCon Championship as Mark Joye finished in 13th. Joye, that same season, was honored by the SoCon as Golfer of the Month and Freshman of the Year. Garrett Medeiros competed for the Terriers in the NCAA Southeast Regional finishing in 41st place. Wofford had two players named to the GCAA All-Academic team, Medeiros and Mike McKenzie. Medeiros and Joye were both named to the All-SoCon team. In 2008-09, Lipscomb guided the Terriers to their best team score in the Southern Conference championship since 2002. He directed the program to the WCU Intercollegiate title in the fall of 2006 and has coached an All-Southern Conference selection four of his five seasons, including current senior and 2009 honoree Garrett Medeiros. In addition, a number of his players have garnered Southern Conference Player of the Month or Player of the Week accolades including Neil O’Brien who earned All-SoCon and SoCon Freshman of the Year in 2006. Lipscomb returned to the Spartanburg, S.C., campus in the summer of 2004 as the program’s inaugural director of golf. After one season, he assumed the duties of head men’s coach. Lipscomb is a 1970 Wofford graduate and a member of the

Terriers’ Athletic Hall of Fame and the South Carolina Golf Hall of Fame. The Union, S.C., native was also selected to the inaugural Hall of Fame class for Union High School. Among his myriad of honors, Lipscomb was named the 1994 Carolinas PGA Golf Professional of the Year. He was also the 1989 Carolinas PGA Teacher of the Year and the 1986 Carolinas PGA Player of the Year. Lipscomb was the head golf professional at The Carolina Country Club in Spartanburg, S.C., from 1990-2003. Previously, he was the head golf professional at the Country Club of Orangeburg (1977-90) and did a PGA apprenticeship at Scioto Country Club in Columbus, Ohio (1972-77). During his undergraduate days, Lipscomb was a captain and most valuable player for the Terrier golf team. He helped lead Wofford to the 1970 state championship. Lipscomb has remained a successful active player through the years. He has won three South Carolina Opens, a Carolinas Open and a total of 10 major Carolinas PGA championships. He was named the 1986 CPGA Player of the Year and earned Senior PGA Player of the Year honors in 1999 and 2000. He qualified three times for The Heritage Classic and played twice in the PGA Championship. He also qualified for the 1979 Kemper Open in Charlotte, N.C., and two senior PGA Championships. Lipscomb and his wife, Sandra, have three sons: Victor, David and Jonathan.

The Wofford Invitational

History The Wofford Invitational is one of the most prestigious men’s tournaments in the Southeast. It invites participants from around the nation to compete in a two-day, 54-hole event. What sets the tournament apart from the others in the region is the strong tradition that began when the Terriers were a member of NCAA Division II. In the 25 years the tournament has been held, there have been 14 different team champions crowned at the Carolina Country Club and Country Club of Spartanburg. The list of champions and participants is impressive, but it is the golfers who have competed for the individual title that makes the tournament what it is. The Wofford Invitational has instant recognition with the likes of PGA Tour veterans Gibby Gilbert, Len Mattiace, Richard Coughlan, Brett Quigley, Charlie Rymer, and Kevin Johnson all walking the Carolina Country Club as tournament players.

NAIA National Champions Terriers take home the National Championship June 8, 1973

*Excerpt taken from Mike Hembree’s story in the Spartanburg Herald-Journal

National Champions Reunite April 15, 2013

This past spring marked the 40th anniversary of Wofford’s NAIA National Championship. In honor of the event, all five members of the ‘73 championship team recreated the photo they took 40 years prior, holding the national championship banner and standing in the same order they stood that same day. In place of Wofford’s late head coach Earl Buice and the NAIA Commissioner pictured in the original photo, both children of the late head coach Earl Buice held the championship trophy. The event was held in conjunction with the Coca-Cola Wofford Invitational at the Country Club of Spartanburg. After watching the men’s golf team finish its round, the national championship team took part in a dinner and ceremony to commemorate their accomplishments.

2014-15 Wofford Men’s Golf Media Guide

The 1973 championship team claimed the first national title for any collegiate team in the state of South Carolina.

GRAMLING, S.C.—Wofford’s Terriers stunned the rest of the NAIA National Golf Tournament field with a sizzling final round to win the national championship by 14 strokes at the Village Greens Country Club. The Terriers’ title marks the first national collegiate championship won by a South Carolina team in any sport, and the victory margin was among the largest posted in NAIA national golf competition. Campbell College of Buies Creek, N.C., nine shots back after the second round, turned in a fine 297 total, but could only watch as Wofford rolled over the hill-laden course for a 73-72-7572--292 showing. The Terriers posted the best team total in each of the tournament’s three days. But, as fate and the bounce of the ball would have it, the individual crown eluded Wofford. The top individual Terrier was sophomore Marion Moore, who produced a par 72 to finish three shots back of the leaders at 216. Wofford’s Paul Hyman was fourth at 217 and the Terriers’ Pat Crowley tied for seventh at 220. Wofford’s top four players received NAIA All-American honors. Wofford coach Earl Buice was named the NAIA Coach of the Year after adding the national championship to his list of four district championships and two state crowns. Wofford was never challenged the last day as none of the other 16 schools could mount a charge

Wofford Golf History P.J. “Mr. Rules” Boatwright

Moore Crowned Tournament Medalist April 14, 1998

SPARTANBURG, S.C.—Rion Moore carried a four-shot lead going into the final round and finished with a birdie on the final hole to record a 74 to capture the Southern Conference individual championship by one stroke over East Tennessee State’s David Christensen, the first league title by any Wofford individual or team. Moore landed his second shot four feet from the hole on the par-5 18th hole, but could not make his eagle putt which would have sent the tournament into a sudden-death playoff for the team championship. However, Moore did make the birdie try to preserve the individual title.

McGirt Wins SoCon Individual Title April 22, 2001

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn.—Wofford’s William McGirt made par on the first hole of a sudden-death playoff Sunday to win the individual title at the 2001 Southern Conference Men’s Golf Championship. McGirt was tied with East Tennessee State’s Pat Beste at 5-under par 205 after regulation. The Wofford senior two-putted on the 352-yard, par four first hole at the par 70 Chattanooga Golf and Country Club. Beste’s tee shot on the playoff hole went left of the fairway among a tree-lined area, and he managed a bogey to finish as the runner-up. McGirt had been two back from the lead after the first two rounds of play and was one shot behind Beste. However, he birdied his first hole in the final round to close in on the lead. “I felt like I needed to get off to a good start and I did that,” McGirt said. Ironically, Beste was last year’s SoCon medalist while McGirt finished a stroke back to place second. Wofford head coach Dan O’Connell felt that the win was most fitting for the talented senior. “What a great way for him to close out his career,” O’Connell said. “He really, really deserved to win it, especially after last year.” The win, McGirt’s first of the season, coincided with the final competition of his collegiate career. For the senior, there was no better way to finish. “It was a great way to go out,” McGirt said. “I didn’t have a great fall, but the last three tournaments have gone well. I ended on a good note.”

2014-15 Wofford Men’s Golf Media Guide

P.J. Boatwright, a 1951 Wofford College graduate, was the world’s foremost authority on the Rules of Golf. Boatwright was Executive Director, Rules and Competitions, for the United States Golf Association (USGA). Inside the game, he was known as “Mr. Rules,” having helped to write or rewrite many of them. As a senior rules official of the USGA, Boatwright was a towering and familiar figure at U.S. Open Championships. More than any other individual, Boatwright was responsible for the playing conditions and conduct of the Open. Over a period of 31 years, he oversaw the course setup and conduct of virtually every USGA championship. As Joint Secretary of the World Amateur Golf Council, he was responsible for the conduct of the World Amateur Team Championships for men and women. During championships, Boatwright carried his walkie-talkie in the outer pocket of his jacket in order to keep his hands free to finesse his signature pipe. “P.J. Boatwright, for about a dozen years, was the most powerful person in amateur golf and maybe all of golf,” Wofford head men’s golf coach Vic Lipscomb said. “His finger was on the pulse for all golf played in the United States.” Boatwright joined the USGA in 1959 and was its longest-tenured and most revered staff member. He became executive director in 1969 and executive director of rules and competitions in 1980. Boatwright’s stature was such that the quadrennial rules conference between the USGA and the Royal and Ancient, traditionally held at St. Andrew’s, had been rescheduled for Florida in the hope that Boatwright might be able to attend before he passed away. As Michael Bonallack, secretary of the R&A, said, “A rules conference without P.J. would be like strawberries without cream.” Boatwright was the guardian of tradition in all things related to golf, and especially liked to see narrow fairways and slick, firm greens in the Open. Boatwright oversaw his last event in New Zealand in October 1990, when the United States won the Women’s World Amateur Team Championship at the Russley Golf Club in Christchurch, and Sweden captured the men’s championship at the Christchurch Golf Club. The last significant shot he saw was Phil Mickelson’s 40-foot putt for a birdie on the last hole that saved the United States a tie for second place with New Zealand. Boatwright, who was born in Augusta, Ga., walked his first 18 holes at age 10. He didn’t have a club in hand. He was just there to keep his grandfather company. Shortly thereafter, he played his first nine holes at the Augusta Arsenal Golf Club. Growing up in Spartanburg, S.C., Boatwright became a championship amateur golfer. He won the South Carolina Amateur in 1951 and the Carolina Open in 1957 and 1959. Overall, he qualified for four United States Amateurs. Boatwright’s handicap was once a +1. The P.J. Boatwright Memorial Trophy was established in 1992 to honor the team champion at the Wofford Invitational each spring at The Carolina Country Club in Spartanburg. Boatwright was the recipient of the 1990 William D. Richardson Award for distinguished contributions to golf, given by the Golf Writers Association of America. He also received the Metropolitan (New York) Golf Association’s Distinguished Service Award in 1983 and the Metropolitan Golf Writers Association’s 1986 Gold Tee Award. Boatwright was selected as a member of the Wofford Athletic Hall of Fame, the South Carolina Athletic Hall of Photos courtesy USGA. All Rights Reserved. Fame and the Carolinas Golf Hall of Fame.

Golf Facilities The Wofford men’s and women’s golf teams, beginning in the fall of 2006, utilize the newly renovated Golf Learning Center on campus. Thanks to generous gifts from many friends, families and alumni, the Terrier programs have a first-class indoor facility which is exclusively reserved for their use. The center is located on the upper floor of Andrews Field House, the former varsity on-campus gymnasium. The venue contains 17 lockers, one for each of the men’s and women’s student-athletes, a hitting area, video capabilities for swing and technique study and storage capacities. With a clubhouse-type locker room setting, the Terriers can study their academic courses or review their golf game on a large HDTV. Two computer stations are also available with full email and internet access.

2014-15 Wofford Men’s Golf Media Guide

THE HUB CITY

36

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. 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 Caro­lina’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 Interstates 85 and 26 to international business. One of the greatest successes of this campaign was the development of the BMW manufacturing center 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 and the USC Upstate George Dean Johnson School of Business. The area surrounding Morgan Square gradually is redeveloping with a variety of interesting restaurants and urban apartment-style housing. Throughout the 20th century, textile manufac­turing 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.

The Southern Conference

SOUTHERN CONFERENCE

The Conference currently consists of 10 members in six states throughout the Southeast and sponsors 20 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

The Southern Conference office is located in the refurbished Beaumont Mill in Spartanburg, less than a mile from the Wofford campus.

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 1933.

The Southern Conference, which is in its 94th season of intercollegiate competition in 2014-15, 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 postseason college basketball tournament (1921), to tackling the issue of freshman eligibility (1922), to developing women’s championships (1984), to becoming the first conference to install the 3-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 Pac-12 (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 Capital One Academic All-America and all-district teams. A total of 20 Rhodes Scholarship winners have been selected from conference institutions, including Wofford volleyball player Rachel Woodlee, who earned the honor in 2012-13.

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 – 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. A third major shift occurred in 2012-13, when five members announced their departures and three schools were added. College of Charleston announced its decision to leave for the Colonial Athletic Association following the 2012-13 season, while Appalachian State (Sun Belt), Davidson (Atlantic 10), Elon (Colonial) and Georgia Southern (Sun Belt) announced they would depart following the 2013-14 campaign. At the Southern Conference’s 2013 spring meetings in Hilton Head Island, S.C., the league officially extended invitations to former members East Tennessee State and VMI, as well as Mercer, to join the league for the 2014-15 academic year. Today, the league continues to thrive with a membership that includes 10 institutions and a footprint that spans six states: Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia. Current league members are The Citadel, East Tennessee State, Furman, Mercer, UNCG, Samford, Chattanooga, VMI, Western Carolina and Wofford.

After receiving his bachelor’s degree in international economics from The George Washington University in Washington, D.C., in 1983, Samhat received his master of international affairs degree from Columbia University in New York City. He received his Ph.D. in political science from Northwestern University, where he also received a minor in comparative political economy. While at Kenyon, Samhat has overseen a number of major grants, including two from the Mellon Foundation: a Critical Languages and Innovative Pedagogy grant to support post-doctoral teaching fellowships for Russian and Arabic languages, and a grant for the Center for Innovative Pedagogy and The Essentials: Renewing General Education within the Curriculum to enhance the endowment for a previously Mellonfunded Teacher Teaching Teachers grant. Samhat has made a number of presentations, participated in numerous panels and written papers centering on the challenges of the liberal arts college, the role of provost, developing faculty leaders and other topics.

Phi Beta Kappa

2014-15 Wofford Men’s Golf Media Guide

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. 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. 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 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. 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.

Kirk Whitehead (above) is the lastest men’s golf player to be inducted into Phi Beta Kappa.
