THE TERRIER SCULPTUREA 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.

BENJAMIN WOFFORD Born October 20, 1780, Benjamin Wofford rode a Methodist circuit as a lay exhorter from 1806-1807 in western Kentucky, but soon returned to South Carolina that year to marry Anna Todd. With the death of Todd’s father in 1809, Wofford inherited control of the Todd family farm in the southern part of Spartanburg County. Ordained in 1814, he served as an itinerant for only three years. A year after the death of Anna Todd Wofford in 1835, Benjamin Wofford married Maria Barron. Wofford’s business interests and diminished enthusiasm for rural life led he and his new wife to move to the village, at the corner of present-day Magnolia and St. John Streets. There, he continued to invest conservatively and live simply until his death on December 2, 1850. Wofford’s will provided $100,000 for the establishment of a college for literary, classical, and scientific education in Spartanburg, to be under the control and manage-ment of the state’s Methodist Conference. Within four years of Wofford’s death, the trustees he named took the money he bequeathed, secured a charter, bought land, built a college and five houses for professors, hired a faculty, and opened the doors to Wofford College.

TERRIERS Wofford’s nickname dates back to the early 1910’s when Professor E.H. Shuler recalled seeing a terrier named Jack at Wofford baseball games. A cartoon showing a Jack-like dog doing gymnastics appeared in a Wofford Journal about the same time. By 1914, the nickname Terrier was firmly established for the college’s athletic teams. Wofford has had a number of real-life mascots, including Spike in the mid-1950s, and Jocko in the early 1960s. Stymie was Wofford’s mascot in 1972 and ‘73. Most Wofford Terriers have been Boston Terriers, which have a smooth black coat with white markings on th eface, neck, chest, legs and feet. Terriers usually pack a muscular 20 pounds on a foot-high frame.

BOSS THE TERRIER The fearless leader of the Terriers, Boss (short for Boston Terrier) has entertained Wofford fans since 2001. Boss is also the only mascot with his own holiday, October 16 -- National Boss’ Day. Boss participated in the Carolina Panthers “Mascot Mania” football game halftime show at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte in 1996.

Wofford College, established in 1854, is an independent liberal arts college located in Spartanburg, S.C. It offers bachelor’s degrees in 26 major fields of study, and is well known for its programs leading to graduate and professional studies. Affiliated with the United Methodist Church, the college is committed to quintessential undergraduate education within the context of values-based inquiry. Wofford College consistently finds itself as a benchmark for what higher education should be now and in the future, and how students can find an exciting and fulfilling undergraduate experience that also is a good value both in financial investment and in value-added by that educational experience. The college has scored high on the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE), which measures the level of academic challenge, active and collaborative learning, student-faculty interaction, enriching educational experiences, and a supportive campus environment. Wofford can be found in numerous college guides that provide perspectives from a variety of sources. Among those are U.S. News & World Report’s “America’s Best Colleges,” The Princeton Review’s “Best 376 Colleges;” The Fiske Guide to Colleges, The (Yale) Insider’s Guide, and Peterson’s Colleges for Top Students. Forbes.com ranked Wofford as one of “America’s Best Colleges” in 2011, the highest rated institution in South Carolina. In its November 2010 issue, Kiplinger’s Personal Finance magazine ranked Wofford among the nation’s best private college values, at number 31. Wofford consistently lands on “best value” lists in various other national college guides and publications. In U.S. News & World Report’s 2010 “America’s Best Colleges,” Wofford was included in “Great Schools, Great Prices,” a listing of 31 liberal arts colleges. Wofford ranks ninth in the country in the percentage of undergraduates receiving credit for studying abroad, according to Open Doors 2010, a report published by the Institute of International Education (IIE).

The Village, Wofford’s apartment-style housing for its senior students, has earned a number of national recognitions. The Michael S. Brown Village Center opened in the fall of 2011 with loft-style apartments along with a grand galleria, deli restaurant and market. It is anchored by the Mungo Center for Professional Excellence. Wofford was named to the President’s Higher Education Community Service for 2010, presented by the Corporation for National and Community Service, an independent federal agency tasked with fostering an ethic of volunteerism and service in America. Wofford also was included in the 2009 Guide to Service-Learning Colleges & Universities, highlighting the college’s programs to encourage student engagement. Wofford’s entire 175-acre campus is a national arboretum, which was named the Roger Milliken Arboretum at Wofford College in honor of the late longtime trustee and benefactor. More than 5,000 trees have been planted on the Wofford campus since 1992.

Local print and television media from markets including Columbia, Charlotte, Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill, Asheville and Greensboro/Winston-Salem are on campus on a daily basis. According to SI.com’s Tim Layden, “as I like to think of it: Training Camp Heaven. 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.”

rs Head women’s golf coach Angie Ridgeway enters her 10th season at Wofford. Ridgeway has guided the Terriers to unprecedented heights since arriving at Wofford in July 2004. The former LPGA player was originally tabbed as the associate director of golf before being named the women’s head coach during the summer of 2005.

The Terriers have won eight tournaments in Ridgeway’s era. It includes Wofford’s first ever NCAA Division I tournament victory, winning the Wofford Invitational in October of 2004. Ridgeway has also coached the Terriers to 39 top five tournament finishes. A Terrier has taken the individual title at 10 tournaments since Ridgeway came to Spartanburg. Current assistant coach Erin Wells won Wofford’s first ever individual championship, taking the 2007 Wofford Invitational.

Last year, Ridgeway took Wofford to never-before-seen heights. The incredible year began with four top fives in all four of Wofford’s fall tournaments, including a team title at the South Carolina State University Bulldog Invitational. Wofford shot a three-round team total of 884, shattering the program’s low 54-hole record of 921, which was set in October of 1999. The Terriers also set a new low 18 record of 285, and posted the second-best low 36 in program history of 588. Individually, Anne Marie Covar won the tournament with a three-round total of 2-under-par 214, setting the program’s new low 54 and posting the second-best tournament score in relation to par. Two weeks later, Ridgeway’s Terriers posted the program’s second-best 54-hole total of 905, taking second place at the CSU Wendy’s Invitational.

The 2012-13 season had more in store. The spring season witnessed the Terriers earn three more top fives, including fourth place of 28 teams at the C&F Bank Intercollegiate, fourth of 16 in the Terrier-hosted Low Country Intercollegiate, and third of 12 teams at the Mimosa Hills Intercollegiate.

In 2011-12, the Terriers earned two victories, first defeating Radford in a head-to-head match to close out the fall season. Lauren Dunbar led the way for Wofford, shooting an ever-par 72 to earn medalist honors. The Terriers picked right back up where the left off to start the spring season, hosting the Wofford Tri-Match and defeating Appalachian State and Gardner-Webb. Again, a Terrier took medalist honors as Alex Hendricks shot a 3-over-par 75 to lead the field. The 2011-12 season was also highlighted by a second-place finish at the Terrier Intercollegiate, third place at the Mimosa Hills Intercollegiate and fifth at the CSU Wendy’s Invitational.

In 2010-11, Alex Rankin joined Erin Wells as the only Terriers in program history to be selected All-Southern Conference. Rankin finished the year ranked No. 10 in the conference with a 76.59 stroke average and highlighted her season with an individual championship at the Boscobel Intercollegiate, shooting a final-

round 3-under-par 69 to finish the tournament 1 under par. Rankin’s round of 69 remains the second-lowest 18-hole score in program history. She also took seventh place at the SoCon Championships.

The 2010-11 season also saw many other feats. Then-freshman Anne Marie Covar earned her first collegiate individual championship at the Winthrop Fall Intercollegiate, tying Rankin’s season-low round of 69 on the final day. Covar went on to be named SoCon Freshman of the Year, becoming the First Terrier to earn the honors. Wofford took second place at the tournament, and earned a team championship the following week with the help of Rankin at the Boscobel Intercollegiate. Two more top fives were part of the season, including a third place finish at the Tribe Invite and another bronze showing at the Wofford-hosted Low Country Intercollegiate.

The 2009-10 season saw both Alex Rankin and Sarah Hurt earn SoCon Player of the Week honors. Rankin did so the week of March 17 after tying for third place at the Low Country Intercollegiate. Hurt earned the year’s final player of the week award following her victory at the Mimosa Hills Women’s Intercollegiate, which included a final-round 3-under-par 69 to win the 78-player tournament by four strokes. As a team, the Terriers took fifth place.

Wofford earned one tournament championship on the 2009-10 campaign, finishing atop the seven-team field at the Boscobel Intercollegiate. The Terriers fired back-to-back rounds of 16-over-par 304 to win the team title by 19 strokes over Gardner-Webb. The 36-hole total of 608 remains the ninth-best in program history.

The 2008-09 season saw then-freshman Sarah Hurt come on the scene and earn SoCon All-Freshman honors. Hurt began her collegiate career with a runner-up finish in her very first tournament, shooting rounds of 2-under 70 and 3-under 69 at the Great Smokies Intercollegiate. Hurt’s 5-under-par tournament set the Wofford program record for score in relation to par, which still stands to this day. Hurt earned two more top 10s that year and tied for 36th place at the SoCon Championship.

As a team, the Terriers had a very successful year which included four top five finishes, highlighted by a second-place showing at the Wofford Diet Coke Invitational. Ridgeway also led the Terriers to third at the Colonial Intercollegiate, fourth at the Lady Jaguar Invitational and fourth at the Roar-EE Invitational.

The 2007-08 season saw freshman Alex Rankin join Erin Wells as just the second Terrier to be tabbed SoCon Player of the Week. Rankin picked up the accolade the week of March 19 after winning the Gainesville Shootout, and picked up the award a second time the week of April 16 after taking fourth place at the Roar-EE Women’s Invite. She is the only Terrier in program history to earn SoCon Player of the Week twice in a season.

program’s first-ever All-Southern Conference honoree in 2006-07. Wells was the first player Ridgeway recruited after taking charge of the program. The Louisville, Ky., native also became the first Terrier to win an individual tournament title with her medalist honors at the Diet Coke Wofford Intercollegiate in March 2007. Ridgeway coached two Southern Conference Golfers of the Week, Sarah Hurt and Alex Rankin, and had one Southern Conference All-Freshman, Hurt, in 2006-07.

Erin Wells was the first player in program history to garner SoCon Player of the Week and SoCon Player of the Month honors.

In addition, Ridgeway coached the Terriers to a match play win against High Point during the fall of 2007 during the inaugural Paw Cup competition.

In her first campaign directing the women’s squad, Ridgeway guided the Terriers to the first two tournament crowns in program history. Wofford captured the titles at its home tournament in the fall and at the Draper Valley Spring Invitational.

Prior to joining the Terriers, Ridgeway was named the women’s golf head coach at USC Upstate and was in charge of beginning a new program with an anticipated start date in 2005-06.

A 12-year veteran of the LPGA Tour, she played in over 190 events and six U.S. Opens. Her most successful year came in 1992 when she tallied $84,396 en route to over $300,000 in career earnings. She also is a Class A-2 member of the LPGA Teaching and Club Professional Division.

Ridgeway fired a 3-under par 285 at the 1997 Ping Welch’s Championship to garner a fifth-place result, one of her six career top 10 finishes. She also had 10 top 15 showings while placing in the top 25 on 21 occasions. In addition to playing on the regular tour, she also competed in over 260 charity and corporate pro-am events.

As a rookie, she shot a career-low 64 in the first round of the 1992 Sega Women’s Championship. She carded 44 career rounds in the 60s.

Ridgeway had her best years on the LPGA Tour in 1992 and

1993, winning over $159,000 during that two-year span. A native of Indiana and a long-time Spartanburg area resident,

she graduated from Boiling Springs High School before embarking on a collegiate career at Appalachian State. While at the Boone, N.C., institution, she earned a bachelor’s degree in business and finished with a 3.4 grade-point average. She served as the Mountaineers’ team captain and earned medalist honors at two tournaments.

Ridgeway has also advanced her professional development by attending various training programs, including the PGA of America Golf School, the Golf Digest School, the Dave Pelz Short Game School and the Sports Psychology Workshop conducted by Dr. Bob Rotella.

robInson played In the world amateur team ChampIonshIp

RIO GRANDE, Puerto Rico -- Former Wofford women’s golfer Laura Robinson ’05 (Paget, Bermuda) represented her home country in the World Amateur Team Championship, Oct. 20-23, 2004, at the Rio Mar Country Club in Rio Grande, Puerto Rico. The tournament took place at two courses at the country club. The Ocean course was slated for 6,076 yards, and the River course was set for 5,854 yards, both at par 72. Each country which competed sent three participants for the 72-hole stroke play format. The lowest two scores per nation for the 51 women’s teams counted towards the Espirito Santo Trophy. “This is like a major championship for amateur golf and that’s the way we plan to treat it,” said Sidney Wolf, president of the Puerto Rico Golf As-sociation, prior to the event.

In order to be eligible for the event, players must have been amateur golfers under the Rules of Amateur Status of either The Royal and Ancient Golf Club in St. Andrews, Scotland, or the U.S. Golf Association. “It’s a huge honor for her,” said former Terrier associate director of golf and current head women’s coach Angie Ridgeway. “To have a member of your own program in any type of world event is tremendous. We are all proud of her no matter what she accomplishes during the event. She certainly has the talent to play with anyone there.” Robinson was allowed to carry her Wofford golf bag during the World Amateur Team Championship.

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 aca-demic courses or review their golf game on a large HDTV. Two computer stations are also available with full email and internet access.

The City’s origins predate the Revolutionary War. Spartanburg was named for a unit of American Revolu-tion 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 indus-try. 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, Augus ta, Atlanta, Asheville, Char-lotte and points beyond. As many as 90 trains per day could be seen and heard operating in Spartanburg dur-ing 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 com-mercial radio station (WSPA). Its leader ship in the state was reflected by the election of several residents as gov-ernor. 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

THE HUB CITYTHE HUB CITY

State Park. After World War II, Spartanburg made a con certed ef-fort 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-Spar-tanburg 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 redevelop-ing 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

The Southern Conference, which begins its 93rd season of intercollegiate competition in 2013, 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), 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 last year.

The Conference currently consists of 11 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 HISTORYOn 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 1933. 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. 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, the league officially extended invitations to former members East Tennessee State and VMI, as well as Mercer, to join the league for 2014-15. Today, the league continues to thrive with a membership that includes 11 institutions and a footprint that spans five states: Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee. Current league members are Appalachian State, The Citadel, Davidson, Elon, Furman, Georgia Southern, UNCG, Samford, Chattanooga, Western Carolina and Wofford.

CHAMPIONSHIP HISTORYThe 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. The SoCon 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 and field, tennis, golf and softball.

Rachel Woodlee ‘13 (above), a former member of the Terrier volleyball program, is one of the latest Phi Beta Kappa inductees.

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.
