FROMTHEPRESIDENT 

Blessings abound at Union 

Across the Union community during 

the fall semester of 2007, we have 

been giving thanksgiving to God for 

his blessings to Union University over the 

past 12 months. At the top of the list is 

the completion of White Hall, an amazing 

facility for teaching and 

research for biology, chemistry, 

and nursing. We experienced 

a record year in 

enrollment, in non-duplicating 

headcount, in number of 

donors, and in total gifts to 

the University. We are grateful 

for the new partnership 

with the Olford Center. 

Union received its highest 

ranking ever in the annual 

U. S.News & World Report listings. 

The University was also 

included among America’s 100 Best Buys, 

Princeton Review’s Best Colleges in the 

Southeast, Colleges of Distinction, and 

the President’s Honor Roll for colleges and 

universities devoted to community service. 

It has truly been a wonderful year! 

In this issue of the Unionite are photos 

and stories representing many of these 

accomplishments. We recognize that each 

of these markers are blessings of God and 

thus our campus-wide commitment to 

thanksgiving. We ask you to join with us 

as you read through the magazine. 

We are also thankful for the people of 

the Union community. Union is blessed 

with a wise Board of Trustees, generous 

donors, and loyal alumni who invest their 

time and resources in the work of this 

campus. The staff, faculty, and students 

of this University are special. These gifted 

and committed people are all working 

together, pulling in the same 

direction to advance a shared 

mission. Volunteers, advisers, 

and friends make a difference 

in the quality of work 

on a day-to-day basis. It is 

a joy beyond words to be a 

part of the Union family on 

a daily basis. 

We continue to move forward 

toward the completion 

of the Union 2010 plan. 

This vision for excellence 

calls for the ongoing development 

of the campus. At the forefront 

of the current plan is the development of 

a new women’s dorm and a beautiful new 

600-seat banquet facility. Numerous other 

campus renovations have the Jackson campus 

looking better than ever. We will also 

begin exploring ways to enhance the work 

of the Germantown campus. 

For God’s blessings to Union in recent 

days, many of which are represented in this 

issue, we offer our thanksgiving to God 

and invite you to join us in a spirit of gratitude. 

For the prayers, gifts, encouragement, 

and visible manifestations of support from 

so many, we are indeed grateful.

About the cover 

America’s oldest and greatest institutions of higher 

learning were founded on the belief that academic rigor 

and Christian conviction need not be separated. Union 

University scholars are cultivating those historic roots of 

American higher education.

14 Reclaiming the Christian intellectual tradition 

In previous generations, academic discoveries were seen 

as revelations of God’s truth. Is it practical to maintain this 

time-honored philosophy while also engaging modern culture?

National publications recognize 

Union University academics 

Union University has been named 

one of the South’s top tier universities 

for the 11th straight year by U.S.News 

& World Report, moving into the top 

20 in its current category for the first time. 

Union is ranked 20th in the 

“Southern Universities-Master’s: Top 

Schools” category, which includes 

those institutions that provide a full 

range of undergraduate programs and 

some master’s level programs. The 

category includes 574 universities, 

ranked within four geographic areas – 

North, South, Midwest and West. 

Union was ranked 38th in the 

same category just two years ago. 

“The U.S.News & World Report 

listings speak volumes about the quality 

of students at Union University,” 

Union President David S. Dockery 

said. “Simultaneously, it is a tribute 

to the dedicated efforts of our outstanding 

faculty and staff.” 

Among the top tier universities in 

the South, Union ranked in the top 

10 in five subcategories, including 

faculty resources, percentage of classes 

with fewer than 20 students, 

SAT/ ACT scores, 

freshmen in top 25 

percent of high 

school class and 

student selectivity. 

Union was 11th in 

the “student/faculty 

ratio” category. 

Other publications 

are also recognizing Union’s 

academic achievements.

2008 

Princeton Review added Union to 

its “100 Best Southeastern Colleges” 

edition for 2008. Union has also once 

again been named one of “America’s 

100 Best College Buys” by an independent 

research firm and has been 

added to a national guide called 

“Colleges of Distinction.” 

The Colleges of Distinction guide 

identifies four distinctions of superior 

colleges and universities: engaged students, 

great teaching, vibrant communities 

and successful outcomes. 

Card, Panetta provide 

insider’s look at the Oval Office 

Life in the White House is intense and 

pressure-packed, but nothing at all 

like the hit television series “The 

West Wing,” according to Leon Panetta. 

“Watching ‘The West Wing’ on television 

is like looking at the Eiffel Tower in Las 

Vegas,” Panetta said. “It looks real, feels 

real, but isn’t real.” 

Panetta, who served as chief of staff for 

President Clinton, and Andrew Card, 

former chief of staff for President George 

W. Bush, were the keynote speakers Oct. 

23 for Union University’s 11th annual 

Scholarship Banquet and provided an 

insider’s look at White House operations. 

The event drew 1,700 people and raised 

$500,000 for student scholarships. The 

banquet proceeds pushed the university’s 

“Union 2010” capital campaign to more than 

$100 million toward the goal of $110 million. 

“Both speakers provided insightful commentary 

on the work of the White House 

and the challenges facing our nation and our 

world,” Union President David S. Dockery 

said. “For the generosity of our friends and 

the support of the community for this event 

we are most grateful.” 

Lead sponsors were Bancorp South; 

White Investments LLC, Roy L. and 

Martha White; Schilling Enterprises, 

Harry and Beth Smith; and Black & 

Decker Industrial Products Group. 

Premier sponsors were Jack and Faye 

Porter; Northwestern Mutual Financial 

Network, Rod and Amy Parker; Mike 

and Trish Weeks; First Bank, Curtis 

Mansfield and Jim Ayers; Benny and 

Norma Fesmire; Medical Education 

Technologies Inc., Lou Oberndorf; Jack 

and Zan Holmes; The Jackson Sun; Nortek 

Incorporated, Lloyd Hansen; Keith and 

Beverly Absher; Impact 360, John and Trudy 

White; and West Tennessee Healthcare. 

This banquet marked the first time in 

the event’s 11-year history that two keynote 

speakers have been featured on the same 

program. Previous banquets have featured 

speakers such as George H.W. 

Bush, Mikhail Gorbachev, Margaret 

Thatcher and Colin Powell. 

Card’s address recounted the defining 

moment of his tenure as chief of staff – 

the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. He recalled 

getting the first word about a plane slamming 

into the World Trade Center, and the 

analysis that it was only an accident. When 

word came a few moments later that another 

plane had hit the second tower, Card 

knew he had to inform the president. 

“A second plane hit the second tower,” 

Card whispered into Bush’s ear as he was 

reading to a class of elementary school 

students. “America is under attack.” 

Card explained how difficult the president’s 

job is, and said that no decision that 

ever reaches the Oval Office is an easy decision. 

The chief of staff’s job, Card said, is to 

make sure the president is prepared to make 

the tough decisions. 

For Bush, that meant talking to good 

advisers, as well as reading history and 

policy papers, Card said. 

continued on page 5 

continued from page 4 

“But most importantly, I found, was seeking 

counsel from a higher power, and I witnessed 

the president seek that counsel many, 

many times,” Card said. 

Panetta said the ingredients to success 

in the White House are hard work, dedication, 

sacrifice and loyalty. 

“We govern in our democracy either 

through leadership or through crisis,” 

Panetta said. The challenge of chief of 

staff is to help serve the president so that crisis 

alone does not drive policy in this country.” 

Union Forum to 

feature three speakers 

The 2008 Union Forum will examine the 

U.S. presidential elections and will feature 

three speakers rather than two for the first 

time in the 10-year history of the event. 

The luncheon programs begin March 

12 with Paul Begala, who was a top aide 

to former President Bill Clinton. The second 

program on April 2 features Michael 

Gerson, a former senior policy adviser to 

President George W. Bush. The 2008 

series concludes April 16 with Good 

Morning America’s senior national correspondent 

Claire Shipman. 

Begala is a political analyst for CNN 

and research professor at Georgetown 

University’s Public Policy Institute. As a 

top Clinton aide he was responsible for 

defining and defending the White House 

agenda, from the State of the Union Address 

Panetta described President Clinton as 

“the most unique and complex political figure” 

that he ever met in 30 years of politics. 

Clinton was one part “good old boy,” 

one part Yale student and Oxford scholar and 

one part consummate politician, Panetta said. 

“I had the good fortune to serve him 

as chief of staff in his first four years,” 

Panetta said. “And I’ve always thanked 

the guardian angel who told me it was time 

to get out of Washington at the end of those 

first four years.”

Gerson worked closely with President 

Bush to create memorable speeches following 

the 9/11 terrorist attacks. He is currently 

a senior fellow at the Council on 

Foreign Relations and is a columnist for 

the Washington Post. 

Shipman contributes frequently to several 

ABC News programs. Previously, she 

served as White House correspondent for 

NBC News, spent five years at CNN’s 

Moscow Bureau, and wrote a popular column

Enrollment reaches record 

high for 10th straight year 

Enrollment at Union University for 

the fall semester is a record-high 3,310 

students, the 10th straight year for an 

enrollment increase at the university. 

The 2007 figure tops last year’s 

fall enrollment of 3,156. The latest 

enrollment figures show a 68 percent 

increase over the 1,972 students 

enrolled in the fall of 1996, when 

Union University President David 

S. Dockery began his tenure. 

The total 2007 fall enrollment 

includes 2,376 undergraduate students, 

compared to 2,277 last year, and 930 

graduate students, compared to 879 

last year. 

“We are thrilled with both the number 

and the quality of new students who 

have chosen to attend Union University 

and we give thanks for each student pursuing 

a degree this semester on the 

Union campus,” Dockery said. “We recognize 

that the enrollment numbers are 

only one portion of the story at Union 

University, but they are a strong indicator 

of institutional health.” 

The fall enrollment totals include 

the largest number of incoming freshmen 

in Union’s history at 476, and 

the largest number of new students, 

including freshmen, transfers, nontraditional 

students and graduate 

students, at more than 1,100. 

“Students are choosing Union 

because of the serious commitment to 

rigorous academics and the dedication 

across the campus to the university’s 

Christ-centered mission,” Dockery 

said. “We salute the wonderful work 

of our enrollment services team.”

Union honors Moss 

with doctorate 

During the August commencement 

ceremonies at Union University, 

President David S. Dockery presented 

an honorary Doctor of Humanities 

degree to Jim Moss, retiring president 

and CEO of West Tennessee Healthcare. 

Jim Moss (center) receives his hood from 

Dr. Jimmy Davis and Dr. Carla Sanderson 

Dockery said the university faculty 

and trustees vote on rewarding such a 

degree to someone who has demonstrated 

significant leadership and made considerable 

contributions to society. 

“During the years that Jim Moss 

has led West Tennessee Healthcare, 

he has changed the culture of a public 

hospital – a culture that is characterized 

by love and service and care 

for people,” Dockery said, noting 

that during the past 12 years, West 

Tennessee Healthcare has given or 

pledged $6 million to Union. 

Moss is a native of Louisiana and 

is married to Peggy. They have three 

children and five grandchildren. 

Memphis health care group 

donates $1 million 

Baptist Memorial Health Care of 

Memphis has made a $1 million 

donation to the health care programs 

at Union University. 

The gift will be used to establish the 

Baptist Memorial Health Care Center 

for Excellence in Health Care and the 

Baptist Memorial Health Care Professor 

of Pharmacy in honor of Grover 

Bowles. Bowles was the longtime 

director of pharmacy at Baptist 

Memorial Hospital-Medical Center.

The act of giving: 

A kidney donation between friends 

Alvin Jeffery knew that Dustin 

Mayfield needed help, so he leaped 

at the chance to offer it. 

After all, what’s a kidney between friends? 

“I have two of them,” Jeffery said. “Some 

people say God gave you two kidneys for a 

reason. Maybe it’s so you can give one away 

to someone who doesn’t have it.” 

Jeffery, who graduated from Union 

University with a degree in nursing in 

May, donated a kidney to Union University 

junior Dustin Mayfield in a transplant 

operation in June at Methodist Hospital in 

Memphis. The operation was a success, and 

both men are well on the way to recovery. 

“I just feel like 

God lined us up and 

took care of it all,” 

Mayfield said. “I 

love Alvin to death. 

I guess he’s kind of 

my hero. I can’t 

think of anyone better 

to get a kidney 

from than him.” 

Mayfield has a rare 

genetic disease called 

Alport Syndrome that keeps the kidneys 

from developing properly. He has known 

for years that he would one day need a 

kidney transplant. 

He hadn’t experienced any physical 

problems, however, until his first year of 

college at Union, when he could tell he 

was getting weaker and sicker. 

“That was when I first started feeling 

bad,” Mayfield said. “Nothing really hindered 

me at all until the end of my first 

year of college.” 

Mayfield began talking to a transplant 

team at the hospital in August 2006. 

When his Union friends discovered that 

Dustin Mayfield (left) 

and Alvin Jeffery (right) 

Mayfield would need a transplant, some of 

them began offering to donate. Jeffery was 

one of those, and he was serious about it. 

Mayfield felt completely at ease with the 

idea of Jeffery as a donor. 

Jeffery, now on the nursing staff at 

Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, said he 

had multiple reasons for offering to help. 

“I had always thought it would be cool 

to donate a kidney,” Jeffery said. “It’s something 

my mom has always instilled in me, to 

donate an organ if I get a chance to.” 

He also had some selfish reasons for 

doing so. 

“It’s going to teach me how to be more 

empathetic to my patients,” Jeffery said. 

Tests confirmed that Jeffery and 

Mayfield were a close 

enough match, so 

they proceeded with 

plans for surgery. 

Jeffery took his nursing 

board exams and 

donated a kidney on 

successive days. He 

got word he had 

passed the boards 

while in the hospital. 

“The surgery went 

great,” Mayfield said after the transplant. 

“No complications. My kidneys are working 

well and producing a lot of urine, 

which is a good sign.” 

All indications are that Mayfield’s body has 

accepted the kidney. “I could tell people were 

praying for me,” Mayfield said. “There’s no 

way that it could have worked out better than 

it did. Everyone’s been very supportive.” 

Mayfield and his family are thankful 

for Jeffery’s selflessness. 

“I keep calling him our hero,” said 

Gail Mayfield, Dustin’s mother. “For 

someone to step up and give a kidney – 

he knew it was going to be painful. He 

was all for it and never had a doubt. It 

takes someone special.” 

Baptist Worship Identity 

Symposium scheduled for 2008 

Union University will host a major conference 

this winter focused on the 

importance of worship in Baptist life. 

The Baptist Worship Identity Symposium 

Feb. 14-16 will feature a distinguished 

panel of presenters on the Jackson campus. 

They will explore key worship issues and 

present a hymn festival. 

“This project unfolded into a dynamic, 

three-pronged focus: a major symposium, 

worship renewal in partner churches 

and worship renewal throughout our 

campus community,” said Richard 

Joiner, chairman of the department of 

music at Union. “We are blessed to have 

the opportunity to join our churches and 

our Baptist communities of faith with 

this pivotal endeavor.” 

The Baptist Worship Identity Symposium 

and Project is a joint endeavor of Union 

University and the Tennessee Baptist 

Convention. This symposium and project 

are made possible, in part, through a 

Worship Renewal Grant from the Calvin 

Institute of Christian Worship, Grand 

Rapids, Mich., with funds provided by 

the Lilly Endowment Inc. 

Among the presenters scheduled to 

appear is Marva Dawn, author of “Reaching 

Out Without Dumbing Down,” and other 

books on worship. She is a teaching fellow 

in spiritual theology at Regent College in 

Vancouver, British Columbia. 

Also scheduled are Donald Hustad, 

senior professor of church music and 

worship at the Southern Baptist Theological 

Seminary, Louisville, Ky.; Robert Smith Jr., 

professor of Christian preaching at Beeson 

Divinity School, Birmingham, Ala.; David 

S. Dockery, Union president; and George 

Guthrie, Benjamin W. Perry Professor of 

Bible at Union. 

The symposium follows two Baptist 

Identity Conferences at Union in 2004 

and 2007. Those meetings focused on 

key matters of faith such as evangelism, 

church growth, the future of Baptist 

associations and the traditional church. 

“The Baptist Worship Identity 

Symposium was born out of the hope 

that the Baptist Identity Conferences 

would not only affirm the doctrines that 

are essential to our identity, but guide us 

to a worship that grows out of that identity,” 

Joiner said. 

For more information about the 2008 

conference, contact the department of 

music at (731) 661-5311.

$1 million dollar check to Dr. Dockery

President David S. Dockery during a 

chapel service on Union’s campus. 

“Our mission of healing, teaching 

and preaching extends beyond the 

hospital and into our community and 

our schools,” Reynolds said. 

The gift from Baptist follows $5 million 

in donations to Union’s pharmacy 

program from West Tennessee Healthcare 

and leaders of Union’s board of trustees. 

The four-year Doctor of Pharmacy 

degree program will be led by Sheila 

Mitchell, who was named as the 

founding dean of the School of 

Pharmacy in May. 

Union achieves 

accreditation rarity 

The Southern Association of 

Colleges and Schools has affirmed 

Union University’s accreditation for the 

next 10 years, after the university was 

found to be in compliance in all areas 

with no recommendations for changes. 

Union University Provost Carla 

Sanderson said it was extremely rare 

for SACS to find institutions in compliance 

in all areas. 

“The chairman of the on-site visiting 

team in May said that in 30 years 

of chairing on-site teams, Union was 

his first experience where there were no 

recommendations,” Sanderson said. 

The SACS on-site team visited the 

Union campus in May. Final notification 

came from SACS in December. 

Though individual programs of 

study will have to go through accreditation 

processes over the next decade, 

the report means that Union as an 

institution remains fully accredited 

for 10 years.

New university centers examine 

media, culture and beliefs 

Two new university centers will provide 

forums for some widely discussed 

and crucial issues in American culture. 

The Center for 

Media, Faith and 

Culture provides 

Christian communicators 

with perspective 

as they 

engage the culture. 

Michael D. Chute, 

professor of communication arts, is the 

center’s director. 

Also new this fall 

is the Center for 

Politics and 

Religion, directed 

by Micah Watson, 

assistant professor 

of political science . 

This center will 

sponsor conferences, promote 

research and encourage each student 

to consider how faith affects political 

philosophy. 

“It’s sometimes said that we are 

supposed to avoid bringing these topics 

up at polite dinner conversation,” 

Watson said. “But I think Union in 

general and the Center can foster 

robust and charitable conversations 

about these matters that we often 

care about a great deal.” 

The Center will also bring in 

speakers and sponsor conferences 

that will address these topics. Watson 

said two scholars will visit Union 

on President’s Day to talk about 

Washington and Lincoln and their 

approach to politics and religion. 

There are now 10 centers for study 

at Union. Others include the Carl 

F. H. Henry Center for Christian 

Leadership, Center for Business and 

Economic Development, Center for 

Educational Practice, Center for 

Excellence in Health Care Practice, 

Center for Faculty Development, 

Edward P. Hammons Center for

Bulldogs look to repeat 

NAIA tournament run 

From a national perspective, head 

coach Ralph Turner’s team is coming 

off a highly successful season. The 

Bulldogs advanced to the Elite Eight in 

the 2007 NAIA National Tournament 

with wins over, California Baptist and 

Southern Nazarene (Okla.). 

Five players from that team graduated, 

including 56 of the team’s 83 total points 

per game last season. Four of those were 

starters who earned NAIA All-American 

honors during their Union careers: Mack 

Bealim, Deywane Lee, Ben Frederick, 

and Pierry Valmera. 

Ryan Merriman is this year’s lone 

returning senior. He made 21 threepointers 

for the Bulldogs and was a key 

player in Union’s NAIA run. 

Other key returning players from 

last year’s 25-10 squad include juniors 

Brian Lake (12.6 points per game) and 

Tony Brown (11.2); and sophomores 

Tacuma Alexander, Brandon Lay and 

Keith Tollivar. 

Among the leading newcomers is junior 

college All-American Matt Neaville. 

He set the junior college record with 17 

made three-pointers in a game and was 

the nation’s fourth leading junior college 

scorer with 26 points per game. 

“Matt is a special player,” Turner said. 

“Not only is he a great shooter and scorer, 

but he finds ways to make all of his 

teammates better.” 

Lady Bulldogs return top scorers 

Head coach Mark Campbell welcomes 

back four of the top five scorers 

from a team that advanced to the 

NAIA national tournament’s final four 

and took the TranSouth conference title 

for the 10th time in 12 years. 

Merideth Richardson Jacobs (leading 

three-point shooter from 2005 and 2006 

national title teams) is back following a 

medical redshirt season. Kaitlin Dudley 

returns after leading Union in scoring as 

a freshman (14 points per game). Josephine 

Owino will try to better her 64 percent 

field goal shooting last season, the 

second-best percentage in the nation. 

All three players have each been NAIA 

All-Americans during their careers. 

Crystal Eason returns for her senior season. 

She was named a conference scholarathlete 

last year, averaging 10.6 points per 

game while sinking 68 three-point shots. 

Campbell adds another player to his 

roster this year in freshman Kayla Hudson 

from nearby Gleason, Tenn. She was

Practicing Safety: Germantown Nursing Coordinator Dana Wilkinson and RN-BSN student Scott Summars

Germantown campus volunteers 

trained for disaster service 

Students, faculty and staff on Union’s 

Germantown campus have completed 

the Community Emergency Response 

Teams program, designed to produce trained 

volunteers who can help during a disaster. 

Germantown firefighters and police officers 

presented the disaster response training 

to Union volunteers, including Dana 

Wilkinson, nursing coordinator; Tabitha 

Washburn, IT for Germantown campus; 

Donna Sachse, director of nursing in 

Germantown; and 24 students. They 

received disaster relief kits containing official 

CERT gear, bandages and supplies for 

sustaining life. 

Responsibilities and duties accompany 

CERT volunteers. Many were surprised 

to learn that official rescue squads would 

report to the local CERT leader for 

instruction in the event of an actual 

emergency. 

“We never know when a disaster may 

occur,” Sachse said. “The students have 

been trained to respond to any type of disaster 

and will have an ID card that identifies 

them to others. 

“There are numerous types of disasters: 

fire, tornado, flood, earthquake, terrorism, 

winter storm, hurricane, hazardous 

materials release. The students are now 

prepared to respond appropriately.” 

Volunteers learn basic disaster response 

skills such as fire safety, light search and 

rescue, team organization and disaster 

medical operations – including response to 

emotional needs of the injured. Students say 

they found the drills challenging. 

“It’s difficult to keep a group of 

rescuers organized in a situation where 

you have multiple victims with extensive 

injuries,” nursing student Mike 

Wilkerson said. 

Local firefighters supervised as each 

CERT trainee extinguished fires, surveyed 

damage, disabled power sources, 

treated wounds of all kinds and evacuated 

victims from dangerous situations. 

“This has given (students) invaluable 

training to respond when there is a community 

disaster,” Washburn said, who 

also played a victim with various simulated 

wounds during a training drill.. 

“This has also taught the students to be 

proactive, to be prepared. It teaches them 

critical thinking and resourcefulness in 

finding needed supplies.” 

Chi Omega teams with

Armando Sanchez only wanted to 

be able to play with the other neighborhood 

kids. 

That’s not an easy thing to do, as 

8-year-old Armando has a muscle disease 

that makes walking difficult. 

Riding a conventional bike is out of 

the question. 

But thanks to the combined efforts 

of the Union University Chi Omega 

chapter and the Make-A-Wish 

Foundation, Armando now has the 

means to be mobile. The women 

from Chi Omega granted Armando’s 

wish and presented him with an electronic 

tricycle, among other gifts. 

Total cost for the project was about 

$5,000. When he first saw the bike, 

Armando covered his face and cried. 

“It’s exciting,” said Claire Yates, 

Chi Omega’s director of community 

service. “It’s a lot of hard work, but 

then when you see the kids, it’s completely 

worth it.” 

Armando, a child with the Make-A-Wish 

Foundation, plays with one of the presents he 

recieved at a party sponsored by Chi Omega. 

Armando is the third child Union’s 

Chi Omega chapter has helped through 

the Make-A-Wish foundation. The 

sorority raised money for his project 

through a 5K race and a barbecue. 

“He wanted something to play 

with the other kids in the neighborhood,” 

said Tawnette Baker, wish 

coordinator for the Make-A-Wish 

Foundation in Memphis. “All the 

other kids have bikes and he didn’t 

have one and he couldn’t ride one 

because he can’t make his feet pedal. 

It’ll be phenomenal for him.” 

Armando quickly recovered from 

his initial shock and took his new gift 

for a test drive.

Kyle Hathcox 

Memorial Scholarship 

Union University has established 

the Kyle Hathcox Memorial 

Scholarship for physics majors 

and minors. To further recognize 

Hathcox’s contributions to the 

university, Union President 

David S. Dockery announced 

that the physics and engineering 

offices have been renamed the 

Kyle Hathcox Memorial Suite. 

Please address contributions 

to the Kyle Hathcox 

Memorial Scholarship, 

Office of University Relations, 

Union University, 

1050 Union University Drive, 

Jackson, TN 38305 

His students remember him as a professor 

who cared about them – not just 

as physics students, but as people. 

His colleagues remember him as a leader and 

conciliator – someone whose presence was 

always soothing and never disruptive. 

Shortly after being diagnosed with leukemia 

in July, physics professor Kyle Hathcox died at 

the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston. 

A campus memorial service in his honor was 

conducted on the first day of fall semester classes. 

“He was one of the most tenderhearted people 

I ever met,” said Brian Taylor, a 2005 Union 

graduate. “One thing I will never forget. Right 

after graduation I was walking along and all of 

a sudden this big guy just started hugging 

me. It was Dr. Hathcox. He was even tearing 

up. He cared so much for his students.” 

Taylor is a Doctor of Philosophy student in 

medical physics at M.D. Anderson and was able 

to visit Hathcox only a couple of hours before 

his death. 

A Texas native, Hathcox began teaching at 

Union in 1974. He left in 1988 for a six-year 

stint at Gordon College, then returned to the 

Union faculty in 1994. His wife Sandy is a parttime 

education professor at Union. 

“I could tell that he and Sandy loved each other 

very much,” Union physics professor Bill Nettles 

said. “He was almost like a teenager around her.” 

Union physics professor David Ward called 

Hathcox a great campus leader who practiced skillful 

diplomacy among people with differing viewpoints. 

Ward also said Hathcox was instrumental 

in starting both the physics and engineering 

programs at Union. 

“We give thanks for Dr. Hathcox’s years of 

faithful service to Union University and for 

the lives of students and colleagues who were 

touched by his teaching and service,” President 

David S. Dockery said. “We are also thankful 

for Dr. Hathcox’s strong faith in Jesus Christ, 

and while we grieve his loss, we do so with the 

promise and hope of eternal life through Jesus 

Christ our Lord.” 

Barbara McMillin, associate provost and dean 

of instruction at Union, worked closely with 

Hathcox when she was dean of the College of 

Arts and Sciences. She described him as “amazingly 

reliable and thorough,” and as someone 

who handled all situations with grace. 

“Kyle Hathcox was a leader who led by 

example, and he led in a very quiet, dignified 

and effective way,” McMillin said. 

Rob Krauss is a 2007 Union graduate who 

majored in physics, and a graduate student in 

medical physics at Vanderbilt University. Krauss 

said Hathcox’s influence on his life was profound. 

Krauss especially remembers one of the last 

lengthy conversations he had with Hathcox. 

“I sat in his office probably for about an hour,” 

Krauss said. “We talked about science and faith, 

and how science is a way that God has pointed to 

himself, and how the world has forgotten that.” 

Krauss recalls many times in his experimental 

physics class, when they would be waiting for 

the results of an experiment, that Hathcox 

would tell the students personal stories about 

his experiences, studies and life. 

“And we would eat it up,” Krauss said. 

“He was doing the one thing that he 

loved most at Union, which is teaching. 

“He was an example of what people come 

to expect from professors at Union.”

On the heels of opening a $20 million 

White Hall, more new construction 

is in progress during the 2007-08 

academic year. 

The recently completed amphitheatre is 

a gift from the classes of 2003 and 2006. 

Student musician Christopher “Cody” 

Curtis was the first artist to perform a concert 

at the new facility, which is directly 

east of Jennings Hall. 

To the east of the amphitheatre are two 

other large construction projects that have 

changed the flow of traffic until completion. 

The former circle in front of Coburn 

Dining Room’s west entrance has been 

removed to make room 

for a 16,000 square foot 

expansion of the facility. 

The new addition adds 600 

seats for special events and will free more 

of the existing facility to serve students. 

A multi-story residence hall north of the 

Coburn construction is also underway. 

The first step involved construction of a 

new parking lot to replace the space in 

which the residence hall will be built. 

Plans call for 100 private rooms and 25 

suites with common kitchen, bathroom 

and living areas. The entrances to these 

rooms will be through interior hallways. 

Both the banquet facility 

and the new residence hall should be finished 

in time for the start of the 2008-09 

academic year next August. 

The renovation of several areas in Penick 

Academic Center that now house engineering, 

physics and career services was completed 

prior to the start of fall semester. Resurfacing 

of roads and parking lots across the campus 

is also completed. 

Visitors to Coburn Dining Room, 

Enrollment Services or other 

locations in the Barefoot Student 

Union Building will need to follow 

some new procedures throughout the 

2007-08 academic year: Enter the 

campus from the Pleasant Plains 

entrance. Turn right onto Dement 

Drive, then take the first left – a driveway 

that serves the White Hall parking 

lot. Continue to the end of this driveway, 

bear left and enter a larger parking 

lot. In the direction of Miller 

Tower, you will see a sand volleyball 

court. Park in that area and take the 

sidewalk to the right of the court to 

the Barefoot Student Union Building. 

The new addition to Coburn 

Dining Hall now under construction 

involves more than added 

table and banquet space. 

Among the plans for the new building 

is an entry way called Heritage Hall 

that will include two major permanent 

exhibits. One is a historical timeline 

illustrating Union University’s history; 

another honors Union presidents. 

The timeline will exhibit at least 50 

large acrylic glass panels, plus scores of 

documents and other items of historical 

significance at Union University. The 

committee working on the project 

expects to review more than 1,000 documents 

before choosing the featured items. 

“For me, some of the most lasting 

impressions from working on this project 

come from looking into the faces of the 

young men and women who came here,” 

said Steve Baker, associate vice president 

for academic resources and library director. 

“The whole exercise has given me a 

better awareness of how the hand of 

providence has can be seen so clearly 

in sustaining and nurturing Union 

University for the special purpose it 

now espouses within the academy.” 

A 50-inch flat screen 

television will also be mounted in 

the Heritage Hall, allowing for video 

presentations and other temporary 

exhibits. 

The Presidents Wall will include 15 

large portraits of Union presidents. 

Both exhibits will be bolted and 

anchored in the walls and illuminated 

with track lighting. Some of the 

accompanying campus pictures will 

be so large that a 39 megapixel camera 

is required to produce adequate 

resolution. 

“As we install walls of this nature, it 

seems most people are not quite prepared 

for the overall shock of the ‘wow 

factor,’” said Jim Harding of Harding 

Creative Inc., a Memphis company 

that is working with the committee 

from Union to complete the project. 

Harding has installed similar permanent 

exhibits in bank buildings and 

university settings. 

“The finishing touches added by 

our Living Mural Walls have made 

some of the architects exclaim that it 

is the key component bringing the 

whole edifice together,” Harding said. 

The Heritage Hall project is scheduled 

for completion in late spring or 

early summer of 2008. 


The phrase “Christian worldview” 

is heard early and often 

in the careers of Union 

University students. Many 

admit upon arrival that the 

phrase is confusing or even 

intimidating. 

But most leave Union with 

an appreciation for seeking 

knowledge rooted in biblical truth. In other 

words, they see their particular disciplines 

in greater depth because they also see 

opportunities to apply Christian principles 

to their callings. 

The idea of combining academic rigor and Christian thinking is a challenging 

concept in the academy of the early 21st century. The founders of America’s 

oldest and most respected universities treated all intellectual discoveries as 

steps in a journey toward discovering God’s truth. 

This Christian intellectual tradition forms the foundation of Union’s mission 

in 2007 and beyond. It’s a mission President David S. Dockery has examined in 

detail through the years, and a philosophy he conveys in a newly released book 

entitled “Renewing Minds: Serving Church and Society through Christian 

Higher Education.” 

The book has achieved critical acclaim. Baylor University Executive Vice 

President and Provost J. Randall O’Brien says he will distribute a copy to every 

chair, dean and new faculty member. Charles Colson says the book is “a timely 

and valuable resource” and “there’s no greater need for the church than to equip 

the coming generation of Christians to engage the postmodern culture.” 

In this section of the Unionite, that cultural engagement is examined 

through the experiences of Union students and faculty. 

In addition, four members of the Union faculty and 

administration have addressed some of the themes 

that Dockery writes about in “Renewing Minds”: 

• Associate Provost and Dean of Instruction 

Barbara McMillin writes about establishing 

a grace-filled academic community. 

• Charles Colson Professor of Faith and 

Culture Hal Poe examines thinking 

globally about the future. 

• Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences 

Gene Fant looks at loving God with his mind. 

• Dean of the School of Christian Studies 

Gregory Thornbury considers a culture 

without Christianity.

In “Renewing Minds,” Union University 

President David S. Dockery in the chapter 

entitled “Establishing a Grace-Filled Academic 

Community” identifies unity, worship, service 

and the shared life as the calls incumbent 

upon the faculty, administration, staff and 

students who populate such a community. 

As I pondered each of these calls I began 

to consider what a tour of such a community 

would reveal. Taking the tour was easy; I had only to 

look around me at the Union community in which I 

am blessed to serve. 

Unity 

“A coherent picture of life and learning,” as 

Dockery describes it, comes clearly into focus 

when faculty, regardless of the area in which they are 

trained or the type of program in which they teach, 

unite to identify the connections and contemplate 

the lordship of Christ over all disciplines. On several 

occasions just this fall I have witnessed as engineers 

and historians, scientists and musicians, artists and 

accountants have gathered to discuss the myriad 

ways in which their disciplines — all our disciplines 

— are unified in Christ, all being created by Him 

and subject to Him. 

Worship 

Regularly my “tour” takes me 

through the double doors of G.M. 

Savage Memorial Chapel; here 

it is clear that the call to worship 

is heard and acted 

upon by students, faculty 

and staff alike. It is evident 

in these weekly 

chapel services that the 

Union community 

makes “the worship and 

praise of Almighty God a 

high priority,” as Dockery 

writes. When Proclamation 

stirs our hearts in a mighty 

song of praise or when one of our own like Roland 

Porter challenges us to consider our placement in this 

community for “such a time as this,” we are bound 

together in the “internal communion” that Dockery recognizes 

as a characteristic of worship. 

Service 

While service isn’t difficult to find on campus, the 

best perspective requires touring beyond the formal 

boundaries of the bypass and Pleasant Plains, beyond 

Country Club and Union University Drive. 

Recognizing what Dr. Dockery terms the 

“Augustinian tension,” Unionites are finding ways to 

“live in both Jerusalem and Athens.” From studies 

abroad and service projects to internships and GO 

trips, members of the Union academic community 

are indeed representing Christ to and in the world. 

Through these and other means of modeling service, 

we are able to engage the culture without, as 

Dockery notes, accommodating it. 

A Shared Life 

Where are shared relationships found on our 

campus? In the Hundley Center? In Fresh Start 

(the orientation program for new faculty)? On the 

soccer field? In organic chemistry? In the BAC? In 

jazz band rehearsal? In the Greater Faculty meetings? 

The answer is “yes” to all; shared relationships 

are found wherever two or more colleagues, 

two or more teammates, 

two or more musicians, two or 

more lab partners, two or 

more laborers in Christ 

come together and share 

their joys, their discoveries, 

their strengths, their 

weaknesses, their burdens. 

In short, a shared 

life can be found wherever 

there is true community. 

In such a place grace 

abounds. To God be 

the glory!

At the beginning of every semester in my 

New Testament class, I ask how many 

students have been out of the country. 

Twelve years ago, two or three students 

would raise their hands. Today only two 

or three students have not traveled outside 

the United States. They have gone 

on school trips and mission trips and 

family trips. The world is coming to the 

United States, but Americans also travel the world the 

way we once visited other states. 

The experience of visiting other countries, if only for a 

few days, provides students with an insight into understanding 

the world of the New Testament. 

Jerusalem had a military occupation like 

Baghdad. Terrorists called Zealots 

committed assassinations on 

those who dared to work with 

the Romans. But at the more 

basic level of normal day-today 

life across the empire, 

Paul and the other 

Christian missionaries 

found that they could “get 

by” in any part of the 

world if they knew a little 

Greek. It was the language 

of commerce. No matter 

what the local language might 

be in Lystra, Antioch or Rome, 

almost everyone knew enough 

Greek to carry on business. 

I ask our students if they had any trouble 

buying souvenirs in South America, Africa, Asia or 

Europe. It is never a problem, because the rest of the 

world knows enough English to get by. Just as the 

Greek language of Alexander the Great provided a 

basis for trade and the exchange of ideas for more than 

500 years in the Mediterranean basin, English has 

become the new “world language.” 

Twelve years ago when I came to Union, the World 

Wide Web was in its infancy. Now you can do anything 

with the Web except fry an egg, but even that 

will happen. Our daughter was in Oxford this fall and 

we spoke to her every night over the internet instead of 

the traditional telephone. Technology has changed the 

way we do almost everything. 

When I graduated from high school, college education 

was a luxury but not a necessity. We had plenty of good 

jobs in industry and other sectors that provided solid 

middle class incomes and opportunities for advancement. 

That situation has gone the way of the dial telephone. 

In a world of rapid change, international corporations, 

global competition and limited resources, America 

has lost much of its industrial base. 

Corporate America and Washington have bet that 

our future lies with technology and savvy. In the new 

global climate, the next generation of Americans 

need all the education they can possible acquire, or 

they will lose out in the surge of competition. China 

and India can do technology in addition to industry. 

In the end, the worldview that created the West will 

be our greatest advantage in the creative 

competition between nations. 

Of course, in the future, we may 

not see the same kind of competition 

between “nations” that 

we have seen in the past. We 

can learn from the past and 

recognize certain patterns 

about human behavior, 

but the future is always 

different from the past. 

Thinking about what the 

world will be like in the 

future involves more than 

crystal ball gazing. The future 

is always a result of concrete 

actions taken in the present that 

produce a result for good or ill. 

Thinking about the future on a global 

scale involves understanding the differences 

between what people believe and value. If we assume that 

every worldview promotes or desires democracy, we will 

continue to have dismal foreign policy experiences in the 

Middle East and other places. 

World history has often been driven by conflict 

between enemies, but in an increasingly complex 

world in which financial markets never close, those 

who have the wisdom to craft beneficial relationships 

across cultural boundaries have the opportunity to 

lead the direction of the emerging global culture. 

Christians stepped forward during the collapse of the 

ancient classical culture to craft the medieval culture 

and they repeated this feat during the collapse of the 

Middle Ages as they crafted the Modern Age. Once 

again we have a remarkable opportunity as we think 

globally about the future.

As a college junior, I studied human 

cadaver anatomy for my minor in 

biology. The course was one of the 

most rigorous and intense in the curriculum, 

and I was greatly intimidated by it. 

As the semester began, I attended a 

Bible study where the speaker encouraged 

us to study devotionally, to pray 

that we would learn about God as we 

learned our subject matter. What he meant was that 

we should not divide up our time into “learning about 

God” and “not learning about God,” but rather understand 

that there is no part of creation, including intellectual 

pursuits, that is not able to help us to 

understand God more clearly. Such a 

view means that we learn from subjects, 

not about them. 

I did just that: I prayed 

each day as I headed to the 

lab, and I looked for ways 

to learn devotionally. I 

passed the class (no 

small feat), but I also 

learned so much about 

the providence of God 

that is found in the 

human body. The beautiful 

strength of the wrist’s 

bones and sinews. The precision 

of the angle of the foramen 

magnum, where the spinal 

cord enters the base of skull. The delicacy 

of membranes within the chest cavity. 

I fell in love with the idea that I could worship 

God even as I studied my subject matter. 

Years later, I realized that what I was doing was exploring 

the lordship of Christ over all areas of knowledge. I 

switched academic fields, to literature and writing, but I 

saw God’s fingerprints throughout every area of intellectual 

pursuit. I began to discover the brilliant Christian 

intellectual tradition that permeates the Western tradition, 

the sturdy shoulders of godly giants upon 

which I myself might stand as a teacher-scholar. 

As my career has developed, I’ve come to appreciate 

how my faith provides a foundation to the actual 

methodologies I employ. I am aware that I think differently 

because I believe differently. Sometimes this 

means that I am at odds with the more secular parts 

of the academy, but it also means that I must place 

the lordship of Christ over and above all else. 

Loving God with our minds means that we “take 

every thought captive to the obedience of Christ” (2 

Corinthians 10:5). Such obedience employs Christ as 

its ultimate standard of measurement and foundational 

framework for thought rather than any manmade 

system. 

This obedience, though, also results in a Christ-like 

attitude of relational service. As Philippians 2:5-11 

reminds us, Christ emptied himself of his royal privileges 

in order to take on the form of a humble servant. Such a 

model provides us with a further means of loving God 

with our minds: serving as a channel of blessings and 

grace to our world. 

When we seek to follow after 

Christ’s urging, in Mark 12:29- 

31, to love God and love our 

neighbors, we find that loving 

God with our minds is 

inextricably linked to loving 

our neighbors. 

When engineers travel 

to North Africa to work 

on clean water projects, 

their humanitarian engineering 

is a means of 

loving God and others 

with their minds. When 

political scientists work in 

Washington, D.C., to help bring 

integrity and godly influence to that 

important sphere of our society, they are 

doing the same. When sociologists develop 

strategies to strengthen families, or artists implement aesthetically 

significant ventures, or scientists discover new 

solutions to old problems, then God is glorified and 

humanity is blessed. 

When most people take an academic course, their 

goal is to learn about the subject matter, to accumulate 

a set of information or skills. Such an attitude in 

fact treats knowledge as an end unto itself. When we 

learn to love God with our minds, we learn from the 

subject matter in order to learn about God and to 

serve others. This means that our purpose is not relegated 

to being a repository but rather a conduit, a 

channel through which Christ’s grace can effect its 

world-changing purpose. Such an attitude toward 

learning is truly distinctive, and it’s the kind of attitude 

we as Christians should demonstrate. 

20 UNIONITE Winter 2008

In 1971, John Lennon wrote a hymn for the 

secularist faith. The song, “Imagine,” fantasized 

about the state of world affairs if everyone 

were stripped of all beliefs and prejudices 

– with the notable exception, of course, of the 

former Beatle’s favorites. 

“Imagine there’s no heaven,” sang Lennon, 

It’s easy if you try 

No hell below us 

Above us only sky 

Imagine all the people 

Living for today … 

Imagine there’s no countries 

It isn’t hard to do 

Nothing to kill or die for 

And no religion too 

Imagine all the people 

Living life in peace … 

Now while there is certainly nothing wrong with 

peace, love and understanding, the evidence suggests that 

Lennon’s dream world would in fact turn out to be a 

nightmare. That’s the conclusion of historical and sociological 

studies from two of America’s leading scholars: 

Rodney Stark, then from the University of Washington, 

and Samuel P. Huntington from Harvard. 

Without any collusion, they have both 

found that the animating features that 

have made the West great – modern 

science, medicine, democracy 

and its attending freedoms 

– were the products 

of irreducibly Christian 

thinking derived from 

central biblical traditions. 

In his 2004 book 

“Who Are We?” 

Huntington, arguably the 

most respected political 

scientist of our time, contends 

that the United States 

in particular faces a national 

identity crisis. What was the 

original identity? Beginning with 

G. K. Chesterton’s analysis of America 

as “a nation with the soul of a church,” 

Huntington lists the following traits as explanatory of 

America’s success and global appeal: the English language; 

Christianity; religious commitment; English 

concepts of the rule of law; the responsibility of rulers, 

and the rights of individuals; and dissenting Protestant 

values of individualism, the work ethic and the belief 

that humans have the ability and the duty to try to 

create a heaven on earth, a “city on a hill.” Historically, 

millions of immigrants were attracted to America 

because of this culture and the economic opportunities 

it helped to make possible. 

In sum, the Harvard professor avers, it is the Anglo- 

Protestant culture that arose from scriptural foundations 

that made the United States great. Attempts to undermine 

this tradition, whether one ethnically arose from this context 

or not, he argues, are a misguided and dangerous 

social experiment which could unhinge the entire project. 

In a similar manner, sociologist Stark tackles the secularist’s 

mantra that serious Christianity inhibits progress. 

This, Stark argues in his book, “For the Glory of God: 

How Monotheism led to Reformations, Science, Witch 

Hunts, and the End of Slavery,” is pure myth. 

To the contrary, for example, he demonstrates with 

lucid historical detail that “science could only arise in a 

culture dominated by belief in a conscious, rational, 

all-powerful Creator.” Further, against the charge that 

orthodox Christianity is inherently repressive, he 

makes the case that while believers have sometimes 

behaved horribly toward others (i.e., witch hunts and 

inquisitions), only people who believed 

“that slavery was an abomination in 

the eyes of God” were poised to 

defy the evil. “It was that conclusion,” 

writes Stark, “and 

only that conclusion, that 

enabled the West to abolish 

slavery.” The fear of 

God, in other words, 

means freedom for men. 

Imagine a world without 

the Bible, without 

Christians and without 

God? That is truly a frightening 

thought. It would 

mean more slavery, far fewer 

freedoms and unchecked disease. 

Without the moral restraints 

inspired by God’s people, the world 

would no doubt be an unthinkably worse place 

to live. Even a self-professed relativist can appreciate 

that. All those who love liberty, or so it would seem, 

have a vested interest in the continued influence and 

vitality of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.

In “Renewing Minds,” Union University 

President David S. Dockery addresses, 

among other topics, the issue of cultural 

engagement. 

Specifically, Dockery writes that one 

goal of a Christian university should be 

to “influence society in a redemptive 

way without imposing our viewpoint 

through worldly power.” 

But what does that look like? 

A common trend in evangelicalism in 

recent years has been for Christian professionals 

in such fields as art, politics, communications 

and literature to contribute to 

a Christian sub-culture, complete with 

“Christian” art, “Christian” music, 

“Christian” books, and so on. 

That’s not what Dockery had in mind 

when he talks about the importance of 

Christians engaging their culture. 

“We do not believe that our primary 

responsibility and focus as educators is to 

denounce the fallen ways of culture though 

we do believe that one way we engage society 

is through God-centered cultural analysis,” 

Dockery writes. “Yet I believe we need 

to concentrate our efforts on a more constructive 

approach, focusing on ways that we 

can with excellence produce quality art, outstanding 

literature, great music, and 

respectable scholarship grounded in the liberal 

arts tradition while developing servant leaders 

who as change agents can manifest what it 

means to be salt and light in our society.” 

In short, Dockery is calling for Christian 

institutions like Union University to produce 

“roaring lambs,” to borrow a phrase 

from author Bob Briner. These students 

will make positive contributions to the 

culture, and therefore honor God, not 

by withdrawing from it into the safety of 

a Christian sub-culture, but by pursuing 

their calling and doing their work with 

excellence. 

“You’re doing art just for beauty’s sake 

and for the fact that it’s a good thing to 

create stuff, and if anyone is influenced by 

that toward the faith, then that’s gravy,” said 

Kirby Atkins (’91). 

Atkins was an animator for the movie 

“Jimmy Neutron,” then directed some of 

the television shows that followed the 

movie. He has also worked with Big Idea 

Productions and is now at work on an animated 

movie that he wrote. 

“Christians can’t just react to what the 

world makes,” Atkins said. “We’ve got to 

make our own stuff. And it needs to be 

good. It’s got to come from an honest place, 

and then it sort of has a natural, organic 

way of affecting people. 

“If you’re good at what you do, people 

are going to be drawn toward your point of 

view,” he continued. “And if your point of 

view is a Christian point of view, then they 

get to entertain thoughts that they don’t 

normally entertain, and that’s always good.” 

The idea of Christians influencing people 

simply by the way they do their work is a 

concept that Union University art professor 

Lee Benson regularly communicates 

to his art students. 

“We talk a lot about how 

the number one thing 

is the life you live in front of someone,” 

Benson said. “It’s not what you say but 

what you do. It’s how you live your life, 

whether it’s picking up a piece of trash in 

the studio even though you didn’t throw it 

down, to helping someone in need. Those 

kinds of issues are integral parts of our 

classroom everyday.” 

Benson’s daughter-in-law, Allison Benson 

(’07) has taken that instruction to heart. 

Allison and her husband, Aaron, served as 

interns over the summer at the Anderson 

Ranch Arts Center in Snowmass Village, 

Colo. Anderson Ranch is a prestigious 

learning community that provides artists 

with the opportunity to study under professional 

and world-renowned artists. 

The atmosphere is far from what could 

be considered “Christian,” as Allison said 

she and Aaron were probably the only 

Christians working there. So Allison said 

she did her best to demonstrate the difference 

Jesus Christ had made in her life by 

the way she conducted herself. That 

involved displaying a genuine love for her 

husband, not gossiping when others in the 

office were insulting the boss, staying positive, 

encouraging her coworkers and 

being friendly at all times, even when it 

wasn’t easy. 

It also involved speaking 

with people about Jesus 

Christ when the conversations 

veered that way. 

“We just really seized 

every opportunity to 

talk about our faith,” 

she said. “This summer 

really opened 

my eyes to how 

much it comes 

down to relationships 

with these 

people.” 

Union University 

political science professor 

Micah Watson 

points to civil rights 

activist Martin Luther 

King Jr. and Human Genome Project leader 

Francis Collins as examples that Christians 

can follow when it comes to living a 

Christian life in the public sphere. 

King wasn’t embarrassed about his role as 

a minister, Watson said, and he wasn’t concerned 

only with the welfare of other 

Christians – but with society as a whole. 

Collins, meanwhile, though controversial 

because he’s a theistic evolutionist, is an 

unapologetic evangelical. 

“He is someone who has unquestioned excellence 

in his science, and sees no contradiction 

or problem with that affecting his faith,” 

Watson said. “He thinks that science actually 

enhances his faith and they work together.” 

To be effective in the culture, Watson 

said Christians can learn much from following 

the Apostle Paul’s address to the 

Athenians. 

“He finds a point of common ground, 

and then he uses that to build to his argument,” 

Watson said. 

For J. Mark Bertrand (’91), author of the 

new book “Rethinking Worldview: 

Learning to Think, Live, and Speak in This 

World,” Christians who withdraw from the 

culture to build their own institutions that 

run by their own rules are showing that they 

really don’t love the culture to begin with. 

“It’s not about withdrawing from the culture, 

tooling up and then going back to assault the 

culture,” Bertrand said. “It’s really about being 

within the culture and building things that 

contribute positively to the culture.” 

Bertrand said that evangelical Christians 

need to rediscover the truth of the dignity 

of labor – that a job done honestly and with 

skill brings honor and glory to God. He 

added that it’s important for Christians to 

realize they don’t bear the responsibility for 

single-handedly redeeming the culture. 

“Each of us in a very small way is a part 

of something larger that God is doing in 

the culture,” Bertrand said. “It really is God 

working in the culture, not us coming up 

with a way to allow God to work in the culture. 

Cultural engagement is not waiting on 

us to evolve the right theology of culture.”

Sports Hall of Fame Inductees 

The induction of five new members and 

a special recognition for one of Union’s 

most successful basketball teams highlighted 

the Sports Hall of Fame ceremonies at 

Homecoming 2007 in early November. 

The new inductees are M.C. Joyner (’36, 

posthumously), Buford Matlock (’50), Jeff 

Richey (’66), Michelle Street-Czapp (’97) 

and Luis Ortiz (’04). 

1 Joyner competed in football, basketball 

and boxing while a student at Union. He 

was captain of the 1934 and 1935 football 

teams. An injury prevented Joyner from 

playing for the New York Giants, who drafted 

him. Joyner became a highly successful 

high school coach and frequently hosted 

recruiting visits from former Union assistant 

coach Paul “Bear” Bryant. Joyner also had a 

distinguished military career in the U.S. 

Army, serving during World War II at 

Remagen Bridge and “The Battle of the 

Bulge.” He and his wife Frances had three 

children. He died in 1972. 

2 Matlock also played football for Union, 

starting every game all four years. He went 

on to a distinguished teaching and coaching 

career with Jackson City Schools. He has 

also been inducted into the Jackson- 

Madison County Sports Hall of Fame. He 

and his wife Bernice recently celebrated 

their 60th wedding anniversary with two 

children and six grandchildren. 

3 Richey led the Bulldogs to their first-ever 

conference title in 1964-65, earning conference 

Most Valuable Player titles for two years. He led 

the team in rebounding, assists and scoring for 

three seasons. Richey still holds the Union 

record for free throws in a season (231) and free 

throw percentage (88.5%). He is the only 

Union player ever drafted into the former 

American Basketball Association. He and his 

wife Carol live in Carrier Mills, Ill. 

4 Street-Czapp averaged 15.1 points and 

9.4 rebounds per game in 1994-95 to lead 

the Lady Bulldogs. She was named to Dick 

Vitale’s All-America Team, the Kodak All- 

America team and the NAIA All-America 

squad. Her jersey, #00, was retired at Union, 

and she was also elected to the Gibson 

County Sports Hall of Fame. She and her 

husband Jerry live in LaVergne, Tenn. 

5 As a junior at Union, Ortiz was drafted in 

the eighth round by the Boston Red Sox. He 

followed his days on the Bulldog baseball team 

with 14 professional seasons, including several 

at the major league level. But Ortiz came back 

to Union to finish his education, and became 

the first native of the Dominican Republic to 

both play in the majors and complete a college 

degree. He now owns a baseball instructional 

facility in Keller, Texas. He and his wife Susan 

have four daughters. 

6 A special citation went to the Bulldog 

Basketball team of 1967-68, which completed 

a stellar 22-3 record. Two of the three losses 

were to Memphis State (now the University 

of Memphis) and Kentucky Wesleyan, the 

eventual small college national champion that 

year. Among the team members: Ed Braly, 

who went from a bench player to an All- 

Tournament selection; Dan Rudesill, a conference 

MVP; and Lonnie Searcy, the first 

African-American ever to play basketball for 

Union. Bill Henry was the Bulldog head 

coach, with Bobby Carter as assistant coach. 

Alumni honorees 

Five were honored during Homecoming 

ceremonies as outstanding Union alumni. 

The Distinguished Alumnus Award 

went to Rev. Reginald “Reggie” Thomas (’85); 

the Distinguised Service award to Charles 

Millican (’41); the Distinguished Faculty/ Staff 

Award to Gary Carter, (’75); Honorary Alumna 

Award to Heather Olford; and Outstanding 

Young Achiever to Russell Hilton (’02). 

7 Thomas has served as a church planter, 

senior pastor, director of missions and a 

denominational worker in the Southern 

Baptist Convention for more than 20 years. 

He has mastered cross-cultural and team 

building skills that allow him to be persuasive 

in a way that motivates others. 

“Reggie” graduated from Union 

University with a Bachelor of Arts degree; a 

Master of Divinity degree from Southwestern 

Baptist Theological Seminary in Ft. Worth, 

Texas, and is a candidate for the Doctor of 

Ministry degree from Fuller Theological 

Seminary, Pasadena, Calif., with an anticipated 

date of graduation in 2009. 

8 Millican was the founding president of the 

University of Central Florida and in 1993 was 

named president emeritus of the institution. 

The university opened in the fall of 1968 with 

an enrollment of 1,496 students. The fall 2007 

enrollment is 48,897 – making UCF the sixth 

largest university in the nation. 

Millican also led efforts to establish the university-related 

Central Florida Research Park, 

which opened in 1982. The park is one of the 

top 10 research parks in the United States, with 

116 firms and more than 10,000 employees. 

He and his wife Frances have been married 

for 62 years. 

6 

9 Carter is Senior Vice President for 

Business and Financial Services Services at 

Union, overseeing budget preparation and 

administration, facilities management, 

bookstore operations, food service operations, 

and risk 

management. He 

has led management of more than $60 million 

in new construction projects, maintaining 

daily communication with construction 

managers, architects, and planners. 

In addition to his work at the University, 

Carter has provided volunteer leadership to a 

host of church and community projects, including 

American Heart Association, YMCA, 

Leadership Jackson and Englewood Baptist 

Church, serving as a Sunday school teacher for 

24 years and as a deacon chair and chair of the 

finance committee and a trustee for six years. 

10 Born to Christian parents in Northern 

Ireland, Heather Olford surrendered her life 

to Christ as a young age. A gifted pianist, 

Heather spent her early ministry years assisting 

in worship services for evangelistic crusades 

throughout the British Isles. It was during 

this time that she met Stephen Olford. 

Heather and Stephen were married in 1948 

and together they continued to minister through 

crusades and Christian Life Conventions. 

After serving in the pastorate for a combined 

twenty years, the Olford’s, along with their son, 

David, founded Olford Ministries International 

and the Stephen Olford Center for Biblical 

Preaching in Memphis. The Olfords’ served 

side by side educating and ministering to pastors 

and lay leaders from around the world until 

Stephen’s death in 2004. 

In addition to her sons and their 

wives, Ms. Heather enjoys spending time with 

her five grandchildren and continues to live 

on the campus of the Stephen Olford Center 

at Union University. 

11 Hilton graduated from Union University 

in 2002 with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in 

Christian Ethics and History. After graduating 

from Union, Russell served as a social caseworker 

at Youth Town in Jackson, Tenn., 

where he provided social services to state custody 

juvenile delinquents and co-coordinated 

a youth boot camp program. 

In May 2007, Russell completed a fouryear 

graduate program in Law and Religion at 

Emory University in Atlanta, receiving his 

Juris Doctorate from Emory School of Law 

and his Master of Theological Studies from 

Candler School of Theology. 

In September 2007, Russell began practicing 

corporate law in Atlanta at Alston & 

Bird, LLP, which was recognized in 2007 

by Fortune as the number one law firm in 

the nation for which to work. Russell will 

concentrate his practice on public and private 

company mergers and acquisitions, securities 

offerings, SEC compliance and reporting 

obligations, venture capital financing and 

corporate governance.

FACULTYPROFILE 

Don and Marjorie Richard 

By Sarah McBroom (’09) 

After serving in the military for 23 years, Don Richard 

and his wife, Marjorie, came to Union University in 1983. 

“I retired from the military as a lieutenant colonel on a 

Friday,” Don said. “Then, I came to Union to work as a math 

professor the following Monday.” 

Marjorie followed Don to Union in January 1984 as a worker 

in College Services, now called University Services. She retired in 

December 2006. 

The Richards enjoy attending Union events, such as plays, lectures 

and athletic events. The couple also plays string music and 

has played in music groups for university productions, such as 

the “Cotton Patch Gospel.” 

Both agree Union has grown since coming here in 1983. 

“The quality of education and spiritual values have always 

been foremost,” Don said. 

Marjorie agreed, also adding that Union has grown from being 

a small school. 

“When we came here, it was a small, regional, Christian 

college,” Marjorie said. “It is a well-respected and 

well-known campus.”

Erin Brassart discovered Union University when she was 

researching colleges in high school. After visiting the university, 

Brassart decided Union was the right place for her. 

“I found it to be so friendly and more like a family,” Brassart said. 

During her time at Union, Brassart said her English professors 

have been incredibly challenging and have caused her to think 

about several issues. 

“At Union, they allow us to explore literature and explore writing 

with a Christian worldview,” Brassart said. “They really challenge 

us to think about how certain things affect life.” 

Brassart also said Union has provided her with several leadership 

opportunities, such as serving as secretary on the executive 

board of the Student Government Association. 

“I’ve seen myself grow so much in my ability to become an 

independent thinking person through classes, and also being 

involved with different opportunities here,” Brassart said. 

“Union’s faculty really cares about me as an individual and helping 

me grow and become who I need to be.” 

Brassart hopes to teach English overseas after graduation.

ALUMNIPROFILE 

Cynthia Todd Graham (’89) 

Le Bonheur Children’s Medical Center • Memphis, Tenn. 

Cynthia Todd Graham is the director of Corporations and 

Foundations for Le Bonheur Children’s Medical Center. 

Currently she is in the midst of a $100 million capital campaign 

to build a new hospital in Memphis. 

“I love doing fund raising – it’s a lot of fun,” says Graham. “I like 

telling the Le Bonheur story and helping people do what they want 

with their money in the right and ethical way. 

She credits her Union education for providing the “academic and 

spiritual backbone” to do solid, ethical fund raising. 

“I don’t make promises to donors that can’t be fulfilled. My work 

needs to be pleasing to God. I learned that from Union and my 

upbringing,” says Graham. 

At the time of her undergraduate work, Union didn’t offer 

Graham’s major, so she completed her senior year at the University of 

Memphis. Although she wasn’t able to graduate from here, she has a 

great Union loyalty and appreciation. 

“Union was the greatest place in the world for,” says Graham. “I 

met the nicest and best people. Union felt comfortable from the moment 

I walked in the door – it was where I was supposed to be. I realize I didn’t 

fully appreciate that time with students and faculty until I left.”

Bob and Sarah Starnes know that Union is the right place for their 

son Brock. While he was in high school, Union started a relationship 

with Brock that was more than recruiting. 

“There was an investment made in his life early on by those talking 

to him,” says Bob. “The relationship was more than how great are you 

academically. But instead what can you offer the university and what 

can the university offer you. Brock began to see Union as a special place.” 

Relationships and real community make Union a good fit for Brock. 

“Through relationships with professors, he sees a passion in 

the manner in which they teach,” says Bob. “And passion in how 

they conduct and live their lives.” 

“There is real community here that invests in my child’s life. 

He grows in faith and academically. He is helped to reach as far 

as he wants to,” says Sarah. “That has spurred Brock to desire 

deeper relationships and not be just a person with a lot of 

acquaintances.” 

The Starnes encourage parents to seek out the right place for 

their children. They caution not to let money dictate college choice. 

“Know your child,” they say. “Those four years at a university are 

very formative. In realizing that, we found Union to be the best place.”

Kevin Isbell was a little unsure about going to a college in his 

hometown. 

Isbell, a native of Jackson, Tenn., thought college would 

be a good time to explore a new place. 

“I wanted to get away and do something different,” Isbell said. 

However, after much prayer and consideration, Isbell decided 

Union was the right place for him. 

“Union opens doors to students who desire to serve God and 

allow him to work in their lives,” he said. 

Isbell said his professors at Union have challenged him and 

helped him grow as a person, spiritually and academically, during 

his time as a student. 

“You’re pushed to your limits as a student here,” Isbell said. 

“You find out you can do stuff you never thought you could do, 

and you’re stretched and challenged.” 

Isbell hopes to attend graduate school after college, and then use his 

music degree to teach vocal lessons at the collegiate level or perform.

Co-owner, Akin and Porter Produce • Greenfield, Tenn. 

Jeff Perkins lists his Christ-based, Union University education 

as one of his many blessings. As a business major, Perkins 

found the spiritual and ethical emphasis to be primary. 

“Professors were always tying their teaching back to the Bible 

and Christian living,” says Perkins. “I appreciated that approach 

and that it continues.” 

Today the couple’s oldest son Jakob is a Union marketing 

major. They are confident that he is receiving the same quality, 

Christ-centered education that Jeff did. 

There is a family history of support for Christian higher education. 

Jeff’s father-in-law, Jack Porter, has served as a Union trustee. 

The Wendell Wayne Perkins Scholarship fund was established in 

honor of his father, a West Tennessee pastor and Union alum. 

“It’s a blessing to know that children are going to a university with 

a focus on Christ,” says Perkins. “There are many good students who 

deserve opportunities for a Union education. 

“It’s an exceptional way to invest. In my business I invest in products 

like okra, green peppers and egg plants. Think of how blessed to support 

an institution that changes the world by the product it is producing: 

Strong Christian men and women who are making a difference.”

Retired Southern Baptist minister and professor of evangelism at 

Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary • Fort Worth, Texas 

Union University’s campus had a much different look when James 

Eaves served on Union’s board of trustees during the 1960s. 

“(Some of) the proposed acreage for a new campus was Spragins 

Peach Orchard,” says Eaves, “as I recall, rather famous, great-tasting peaches.” 

The land purchase set plans into motion for Union’s move north 

from the downtown area. Eaves assumed the responsibility of overseeing 

the construction of all campus buildings except the residence halls. 

To accommodate a close-knit Christian learning community, 

Penick Academic Complex was designed for everything under one 

roof: Classrooms, dining, library, bookstore, athletics and administration. 

“What a thrill to see Union’s development,” says Eaves. “It was 

a great time in my life.” 

Eaves and his wife Jeane Hillman Eaves (’49) watch Union’s 

growth and continue to be loyal supporters. 

“It’s been 58 years since our graduation, and we have always been 

loyal to Union and prayed for all who lead and serve there,” says Eaves. 

“We praise God for Union’s present outstanding, superior 

leading role in higher education. Union continues to earn our 

complete confidence and fill our hearts with real joy.”

Union alums release two new books 

Jerry Drace (’68) and his wife Becky (’73) announce the release of 

two new books. Jerry is author of “44 Ways to Strengthen Your 

Marriage” and Becky has written “Becoming a Woman of Worth”. 

The books developed out of the ongoing needs and challenges to 

the family in today’s society. 

“I asked pastors to name their greatest challenge in ministry,” says 

Jerry, “and the overwhelming response was a ministry to families.” 

In response, the Draces introduced Hope for the Home, a conference 

which takes families through a weekend series of messages to 

strengthen marriages, communications and parenting. 

The Draces are encouraged by the positive response to Hope for the 

Home. They continually hear from families who have committed to 

reading the Bible together and the difference it is making in their lives. 

“Becoming a Woman of Worth” came as a request from Draces’ 

daughter, Becka. 

“When Becka went to Union, she asked me to do a Bible study 

with her,” says Becky. “I presented her with the published book as 

a 20th birthday gift.” 

Currently Becky is studying for her social work degree at 

Union. The Draces’ two children, Drew (’03) and Becka 

(’04), are Union alums.
