F r o m t h e P r e s i d e n t 

In recent weeks there has been discussion on campus 

about Shepherd, the liberal arts, and the 

College’s classification change by the Carnegie 

Foundation from a Baccalaureate (Liberal Arts) 

College I to a Baccalaureate College–General. 

The classification of an institution as a liberal 

arts college is more complex than it may appear. 

Ultimately, it depends on who defines the criteria. 

David L. Dunlop 

Does Shepherd College have liberal arts programs? 

Definitely, the answer is yes. Do we have a 

core curriculum that is based in the liberal arts? Again, the answer is yes. 

Have we made any changes this year that would make us less of a liberal arts 

college than we were last year? No, we have not. 

However, there is a system (Carnegie Classifications of Institutions of 

Higher Education) that many people use to place colleges into categories. 

Last year Shepherd was in the Carnegie liberal arts category. This year we 

are not. The reason for the shift is that the criteria for inclusion have changed. 

Last year a college had to have selective admissions and graduate 40 percent 

of its students in liberal arts majors to be included. We met those criteria. 

This year, admission standards are not considered as part of the Carnegie 

System, and a college must graduate 50 percent or more of its students in a 

liberal arts major to be included in the liberal arts category. Since we do not 

graduate more than half of our students in liberal arts majors (many students 

are majoring in education, business, nursing, computer science, social work, 

accounting, etc.), Shepherd is not included this year in the Carnegie liberal 

arts category. 

If the number of graduates in the pure liberal arts at Shepherd College 

were to be greater than 50 percent, we would again be in the liberal arts 

category, regardless of whether we became a stronger or weaker institution. 

This particular system makes no attempt to judge the quality of the college, 

but rather, it simply groups colleges together based on the percentage of liberal 

arts graduates. Thus, within the newly revised Carnegie System, a weak 

school with an abundance of liberal arts majors would be considered as a 

“liberal arts college.” This is not necessarily a good thing. Conversely, a 

strong school with excellent programs in the liberal arts would not be in the 

liberal arts category unless more than 50 percent of its graduates were in a 

liberal arts major. In other words the Carnegie System is a relatively accurate 

measure of the popularity of liberal arts majors, but it makes no claim as to 

the quality, or lack of quality, for any given institution. 

In fact, Alexander McCormick, senior scholar at the Carnegie Foundation, 

was quoted in the February 2001 issue of Matrix as follows, “It is the 

source of some discomfort for us when they are used [as rankings]. We see it 

as an inappropriate use.” (McCormick was making reference to using the 

Carnegie Classifications to infer quality rankings of institutions by U.S. News 

and World Report and others.) 

No public college in West Virginia is included in the Carnegie liberal 

arts category. In fact, nationwide, only 5.8 percent of all institutions of higher 

education (colleges and universities) are classified as “liberal arts.” When 

examining the baccalaureate colleges as a group, approximately two-thirds 

are not listed as liberal arts institutions, although many of those colleges

Congresswoman Capito to 

deliver Commencement address 

Congresswoman Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.), 2nd District, 

will be the guest speaker at Shepherd’s 128th Commencement 

on Saturday, May 19. The ceremony will begin at 1:50 

p.m. in the Butcher Center. 

Capito is the only Republican in the West Virginia delegation, 

as well as the only woman. The Congresswoman’s committee 

assignments for the 107th Congress 

include serving on the newly 

created House Banking and Financial 

Services Committee, the House Transportation 

and Infrastructure Committee, 

and the House Small Business 

Committee. All assignments are very 

prestigious for a freshman member of 

Congress, and the Transportation and 

Infrastructure assignment especially 

has tremendous potential for West 

Virginia. 

Shelley Moore Capito 

Elected to her first term in the 

fall of 2000, Capito fought a very close campaign against Democratic 

candidate Jim Humphreys for a vacated seat, which formerly 

belonged to current West Virginia Governor Bob Wise. 

Working hard to get her message of quality education, expanded 

health care access, and meaningful tax relief to all the people of 

the Second District, Capito won the election by 5,500 votes, 

becoming the first West Virginian Republican to serve in the 

House of Representatives since 1982. 

Capito’s political career began when she was elected to the 

West Virginia House of Delegates in 1996, representing the 30th 

District of West Virginia, including a portion of the Charleston 

area. Serving two terms in the state House of Delegates, Capito 

was named Minority Chairperson of the Health and Human 

Resources Committee and a member of the Judiciary and Banking 

and Insurance Committees. She has been a key advocate for 

job creation and retention in West Virginia and has taken leadership 

roles in the areas of children’s health, domestic violence, 

family law, school safety, and anti-slamming by long distance 

carriers. 

Capito played other key roles in the West Virginia House, 

serving as the minority House member on the Governor’s Task 

Force on the Children’s Health Insurance Program, sponsoring 

landmark health insurance legislation for West Virginia children. 

Before her election to the House of Delegates, Capito 

worked as a career counselor at West Virginia State College 

and as the director of the Educational Information Center for 

the West Virginia Board of Regents. Her volunteer activities 

include being a past president and board member of the YWCA, 

a member of the Community Council of the Kanawha Valley, 

Ed Magee named VPAF 

Longtime Shepherd employee Ed 

Magee has been named vice president 

for administration and finance at Shepherd 

College. 

As Shepherd’s chief fiscal officer, 

Magee is responsible for all of the 

College’s budgeting. His responsibilities 

include coordinating all purchasing; accounting 

for the fiscal aspects of auxiliary 

enterprises; oversight of facilities 

Ed Magee 

management; preparation of financial 

reports and analyses; supervision of the computer center and 

the telecommunications office; processing the College payroll; 

disbursement and collection of student financial aid funds; assurance 

of adequate insurance coverage for the College; inventory 

control; and administration of the fiscal aspects of sponsored 

research. 

“Ed Magee brings to this position an extensive finance and 

accounting background and knowledge of higher education in 

the state,” said Shepherd President David L. Dunlop. “As a veteran 

Shepherd employee, he understands the institution and its 

needs.” 

A certified public accountant, Magee has an M.B.A. from 

West Virginia University and a B.S. in accounting from Wheeling 

Jesuit University. 

A 16-year employee of Shepherd, Magee has served as assistant 

vice president for administration and finance (1995– 

2000), controller (1991–1995), assistant business manager 

(1989–1991), and financial affairs coordinator (1985–1989). 

Two times during his Shepherd career Magee has served as acting 

vice president for administration and finance (1998–1999 

and 2000–2001). 

Magee has served as a Medicare auditor for Blue Cross 

and Blue Shield, an auditor in the Legislative Auditor’s Office, 

and an accountant with Hayflich and Steinberg, CPAs. 

His professional memberships include the West Virginia 

Society of Certified Public Accountants, National Association 

of College and University Business Officers, Southern Association 

of College and University Business Officers, and West Virginia 

Association of Higher Education Fiscal Officers. ❧

S h e p h e r d T o d a y 

Students produce public service video for Women’s Center 

One of the rewarding and unique aspects of the collegiate experience 

is being able to take lessons learned in the classroom 

and immediately apply them to the real world. In one such example, 

14 students from the Department of Communications 

recently completed a video for the Shenandoah Women’s Center 

in Martinsburg. 

“The video was something the police told us they needed,” 

stated Reba Weller, service coordinator for the Women’s Center. 

“One of the biggest problems is overcoming people’s misconceptions 

of the center. We didn’t have the resources to create 

the video, so that’s when I decided to get in touch with Shepherd 

College.” 

Weller worked at Shepherd during the early ’90s and was 

familiar with many students from the school who volunteer at 

the center. In September she approached Dr. Kevin Williams, 

associate professor of communications, about creating the video. 

“I get a lot of calls from the community for projects of 

varying degrees,” said Williams. “I thought this was something 

my advanced class might want to take on.” 

He agreed to let her speak to his Advanced Production class. 

The course involves students developing and producing original 

projects in electronic media which may include broadcasting, 

sound design, video, and multimedia. Each fall the class 

works together on a group project during the first half of the 

semester and then on their own individual projects during the 

second. 

The group project for the semester had already been assigned, 

so Weller made two presentations to the class to see if 

anyone would be interested in taking on the video as their individual 

project. 

One of the students who was interested in working on the 

project was Jennifer Petrie, who eventually became the director 

of the video. 

“The idea behind the video was to debunk myths of the 

center,” Petrie said. “Myths that 

going to the center means leaving 

your family, that it is run by manhaters, 

or that the shelter is only 

for victims of physical abuse.” 

In addition to knowing the information 

the Women’s Center 

wanted the video to contain, there 

were also limitations to what could 

be included. 

“There were certain restrictions 

to what we could present in 

the video,” Petrie explained. “We 

couldn’t show the exterior of the 

house, windows, staff members, or 

victims.” 

Dinardo. 

Pictured (l. to r., front row) are Emily Bachschmid, Savannah 

Zoeller, and Leighann McCausland and (back row) Kevin Williams, 

Erin Nissley, Jennifer Petrie, Amber Nichols, and Matt 

Matt Dinardo, who served as head editor, sound engineer, 

camera operator, and a member of the storyboard crew, agreed 

that the restrictions were a challenge, unlike previous projects. 

“It was much more difficult,” he stated. “Not in a technical 

sense, but in the fact that we had so many rules and holdbacks 

we had to follow.” 

That did, however, have its positive aspects. 

“It forced us to be more creative,” said Erin Nissley, “and 

I think the video really reflects that.” 

Nissley helped on the project with digital editing, writing, 

treatment, storyboarding, talent, and character generation. 

“We really had to think about how we could get a personal 

element into this rather impersonal setting,” she stated. 

The video presents a discussion with the center’s director 

Ann Smith in which she discredits the most common myths about 

what the center offers. There is also a brief history of the center, 

a presentation of the services provided, and two re-creations of 

real life scenarios. In the scenes, actors, viewed only by their 

hands, discuss the abusive situations they were in, what their 

misconceptions of the center were, and how they eventually 

found solace there. 

It was this idea of helping people understand the positive 

nature of the center that originally appealed to the class. 

“What I liked best about the project was that it was beneficial 

to people,” stated Savannah Zoeller, who worked on the 

video in digital editing, writing, and storyboarding. “It was for 

some real thing that had some real need that needed to be filled,” 

she said. “And we could fix that.” 

The video will be used for the Center’s Ride Along Program 

(RAP). In cooperation with the Martinsburg Police, the 

program began in 1996 to better meet the needs of the victims 

of violence and was expanded to the Shepherdstown and Ranson 

police departments in 1998. Trained volunteers and staff ride 

with officers and respond to the needs of domestic violence and 

sexual assault once the scene of the 

crime has been secured. The victims 

will then be shown the video if a 

VCR is available and be provided 

with a pamphlet that informs them 

of the services that are available to 

them at the Women’s Center and 

shown photos of the shelter. 

The video will be used as soon 

as the center finds adequate funding 

to make copies. They eventually 

hope to have the video available 

at police departments, hospitals, 

and schools throughout the 

region. In addition, the center is in

Shepherd and the liberal arts 

(continued from page 3) 

have outstanding programs in the liberal arts. 

At this point, I wish to briefly discuss the concept of a 

liberal education. The topic of liberal arts has a long history 

within the Academy, and a thumbnail view of this valued tradition 

may be useful. The word “liberal” comes from the word 

“liberty” and conveys the concept of “freedom”— especially 

“freedom of thought.” A liberal curriculum can be thought of 

as the seven liberal arts that were salvaged from the wreckage 

of the Roman Empire. It was enriched by the three philosophies 

of Aristotle in the Middle Ages, and in the 15th or 16th 

century Greek was added. The 17th century added mathematics 

and the 18th century added formalized science. 

This is the form of a liberal curriculum that reached America 

and was the curriculum hailed by the Yale Report of 1828—a 

liberal education which was sound and good for all time. Notice 

that there is no mention yet of the Great Books; that came later. 

The Yale Report of 1828 failed to define the content of the 

liberal arts, and it continued to evolve. Modern languages, English 

literature, and history all gained admission over bitter 

opposition, and once in the fold, became in turn staunch defenders 

of the revised status quo. By 1900 laboratory science 

had firmly established itself as part of the liberal curriculum 

and the social sciences, economics, government, and sociology 

were gaining in recognition as worthy bearers of the Great Tradition. 

In turn, each of these disciplines evolves in both content 

and emphasis. 

More recently the merits and role of the creative arts within 

a liberal arts education have been debated. Additionally, many 

debate the topic “Liberal vs. Vocational and Technical”; however, 

Francis Horn, former president of the Pratt Institute, believes 

that the real question is not “Liberal vs. Vocational,” but 

rather “Liberal and Vocational.” He believes that a liberal education 

is not so much a matter of content as a way of looking at 

things. For example, traditionally liberal subjects can be taught 

“illiberally” by reducing the discipline to a mechanical drilling 

of skills and hand-to-mouth acquisition of facts. Likewise, vocational 

subjects can be taught liberally—that is, taught in terms 

of their basic principles and underlying structure as suggested 

by the Hutchins School. I would simply add that although this 

may be true, it is also true that some disciplines lend themselves 

better than others to the idea of “general education.” In any 

event it is the form of the instruction that defines a “liberal” 

education, not the popularity of the liberal arts major, nor the 

category in which an institution is placed. 

Hence, when examining the degree to which one receives a 

liberal arts education, the philosophy of the faculty is very important. 

Here at Shepherd, I sense a faculty dedication to meaningful 

instruction, as described above. For most, this goes beyond 

the requirement of rote memory and regurgitation of facts. 

Students benefit from these faculty efforts to teach them how to 

learn independently. Students are introduced to the examination 

of process, intellectual flexibility, and social responsibility. 

As a result, a student becomes a broadly educated person, and 

this has direct meaning in his or her life. 

Curriculum is also important. Assuming that the faculty is 

generally committed to a liberal form of pedagogy, the curriculum 

has a major impact on student learning experiences. From 

conversation with students and from personal interaction with 

our faculty, it is my belief that our curriculum does provide an 

opportunity for a true liberal arts education. 

In summary I would offer that a collegiate education in 

today’s world means different things to different people, and it 

reaches far beyond the Carnegie Classification system. For most 

students it includes a liberal perspective interwoven within a 

career-oriented set of required and elective courses. It is difficult 

to synthesize and describe, and it has evolved through the 

centuries. But I think Schmidt—when discussing a liberal education—put 

it well when he stated, “To one who has never experienced 

it, this attempt to dissect the intangible will be meaningless; 

to one who has, it is superfluous.” I trust that Shepherd 

students will fit into the later group, and I challenge them to 

continue their climb toward academic excellence and to accept 

the heavy social responsibility that comes with being a capable, 

broadly educated member of society. ❧ David L. Dunlop 

Teacher Institute slated for July 

Shepherd College will host the West Virginia Summer Teacher 

Institute July 8-21. This two-week seminar is supported by the 

West Virginia Humanities Council in order to provide a select 

group of middle and secondary school teachers with the opportunity 

for intensive humanities study in order to enhance their 

classroom teaching. 

The institute theme, “Women and Writing: A Different 

Voice,” was developed by Dr. Sylvia Bailey Shurbutt, Department 

of English, after receiving a West Virginia Humanities 

Council planning grant in summer 1999. Participants will discuss 

a number of 19th- and 20th-century women writers whose 

work indicates that women both speak and write in a different 

voice from men. By exploring the writing of such literary artists 

as Sylvia Plath, Virginia Woolf, Adrienne Rich, Anne Bradstreet, 

Jane Austen, Emily Dickinson, Christina Rossetti, Isak Dinesen, 

and Zelda Fitzgerald, and the visual art of such figures as Artemisia 

Gentileschi and Camille Claudel, participants will become 

aware of the different voice of the female student writers who 

also construct text in their classrooms. The critical ideas of 

Deborah Tannen, Carol Gilligan, and Dale Spender will be used 

in the seminar study, so that a broader application of the Institute 

theme might be constructed.

or call 304/876-5207. ❧

in career exploration. 

Quincy’s career began on a Friday afternoon 

in December 1970. He finished his last 

exam, put down his pen, and went straight to 

an interview with Dean Harry Young for the 

position of resident director of Thacher Hall, a 

men’s dormitory. He got the job and started his 

tenure at Shepherd in January 1971. He would 

remain in this position until 1976. 

During those years, Quincy married SALLY 

ZEMKE ’71, finished a second degree in social 

studies and education, and became a father, all 

while running a residence hall where 150 young men lived. 

“The only complaint I ever heard from my wife about living 

in the dorm was about the late night fire drills,” laughed Quincy. 

“I remember when Sally’s mother, sister, and aunt would visit us. 

We’d have 150 guys running around the dorm with all these women 

in my little apartment. They all thought is was funny that we were 

living there.” 

Then in March 1974, Quincy’s daughter Amy Elisabeth Adams 

arrived. 

“When my daughter was born, we turned Room 105 into the 

nursery and told everybody she was the first co-ed at Shepherd 

College,” Quincy remembered. “Many nights when Amy had colic, 

I could quiet her down only by putting her in the car and driving. 

I made many trips to Dunkin’ Donuts in Martinsburg that year.” 

Determined to continue his education, Quincy received his 

master’s in student personnel administration and counseling from 

Shippensburg in 1976. He was then promoted to assistant dean of 

students, becoming responsible for all the men’s residence halls. 

Soon after, his brother JAMES ADAMS ’77 enrolled at Shepherd. 

A favorite memory for Quincy was the Great Shepherd Snowball 

Fight. 

“One winter afternoon in the late 70s, I got an urgent call. It 

had started to snow and by late afternoon, enough had fallen that 

a snowball fight started outside the dining hall. Students were getting 

pelted with snowballs, windows were getting broken, and it 

was getting out of hand. Within a few hours the number of students 

involved in the fight grew to nearly 500,” explained Quincy. 

“The town policeman was called, went in, and was run off campus.” 

Unbeknownst to Quincy, the state police had been called and 

were putting on their riot gear preparing to “go in” when Quincy, 

responding to a call from President James Butcher, jumped in his 

’69 Ford, locked his doors, rolled up his windows, and drove into 

the middle of the fight. 

Dr. John Adams 

“I remember hearing the kids as they 

started chanting ‘QUINCY! QUINCY! 

QUINCY!’ I drove around the circle right into 

the middle of the mess. Kids were jumping on 

my back bumper, hitting my car with snowballs, 

and yelling at me. I didn’t know what I 

was going to do so I just reached over and 

picked up a piece of paper and a pen, made 

eye contact with the students, and started writing 

down names,” remembered Quincy. “It 

was funny how they all just started dropping 

their snowballs. 

“The funniest part of the Great Snow Ball 

Fight occurred as I was writing down names: 

the crowd parted and standing there with an 

armload of snowballs was my brother Jim 

looking right at me,” Quincy laughed. “I don’t 

think he ever forgave me for ending that fight.” 

In 1977 Quincy and his family moved out of the dorms— 

seven years of living with that many students were enough—and 

rented a home in town from former Academic Dean Gordon 

Slonaker. Working in residence life was also getting tiring so Quincy 

moved to his real interest, career development. In 1979 he started 

taking classes through West Virginia University and began working 

on his doctorate from Virginia Tech in 1991. He completed his 

residency in Blacksburg, Virginia, and was awarded his doctorate 

in December 1997. Quincy feels his greatest accomplishment was 

earning his doctorate. 

“It was strange to be in my late 40s, walking around a campus 

of students who were young enough to be my children,” laughed 

Quincy. “Completing my doctorate was not something I had to 

do. It was just something I wanted to accomplish. It’s ironic that 

before college, I never really pushed myself. Now that’s what I 

do—motivate kids and students to achieve their goals.” 

And that’s exactly why Quincy is so proud when he talks about 

the Washington Gateway Program that has as one of its integral 

components the Junior High Gateway Camp.

Alumni profile 

(continued from previous page) 

“One of the components of Gateway is the Junior High Camp. 

We have children from all over the state attend a week long camp 

at Shepherd where they are motivated and encouraged to reach 

their highest potential. They take special skills classes, go to Washington 

and Baltimore, and experience a lot of interaction with each 

other,” stated Quincy. “We track the students who attend and have 

found that over 80 percent eventually attend college.” 

The Washington Gateway Program, developed by Shepherd 

College, was created because of the College’s close proximity to 

Washington, D.C., and all the opportunities available there. The 

State Legislature awarded $100,000 to start the program; Quincy 

was promoted to associate dean of student affairs and was appointed 

director of Washington Gateway Center; and the program 

was off and running. 

“We felt that since Shepherd is the closest West Virginia college 

to the metropolitan area, we needed to capitalize on that. We 

wanted to access all the resources available in D.C.,” explained 

Quincy. “The main components of the Washington Gateway Program 

are the Junior High Camp, the Washington Semester, Saturday 

Bus Trips, Gateway Courses, and the Steering Committee which 

oversees the entire project.” 

The Washington Semester offers internships for students that 

include four days a week working in Washington and one day at 

Shepherd. The Saturday Bus is the term used to describe the 10 

different bus trips to Washington, D.C., and Baltimore. In addition, 

trips are organized specifically for departments. 

Another accomplishment for Quincy was the Cooperative Education 

Program. In 1992 the College successfully competed for a 

Title VIII Federal Grant and received $570,000. Co-op programs 

provide opportunities for students to get the practical, hands-on 

experience of an internship but with some compensation. 

“Before these programs, students were getting their degrees 

but finding it difficult to get a job because they had no working 

experience. Because of the many programs we now offer, based on 

an annual survey, 87 percent of our students are employed with 10 

percent enrolled in graduate school. 

In conjunction with the co-op program, the staff at the Career 

Development Center created the Cumberland Valley Consortium 

that includes 13 colleges and universities. Attracting recruiters became 

easier for all the colleges once they joined together. 

“We found that it was difficult to attract recruiters just to 

Shepherd because 70 percent of our students weren’t interested in 

moving out of the immediate area. So we started the Consortium,” 

Quincy explained. “We had our largest turnout of students attend 

the fair this year.” 

In addition to the Washington Gateway Program, Quincy continues 

to oversee the Career Development Center that is the “umbrella” 

component of most career opportunity programs at Shepherd. 

“The Career Development Center is evolving. We’re working 

daily on our Web site, linking our job bank to potential employers. 

We offer to our students and alumni the SIGI PLUS (System of Interactive 

Guidance and Information) computer skills and interest analysis 

test, and we are available to our alums for career counseling.” 

Dr. John E. Adams was recently promoted again to the position 

of assistant vice president of student affairs where he will add 

to his current responsibilities the overseeing of the College Center 

and Student Outreach Services (S.O.S.). He will also be advising 

students who have not yet decided on a major. 

“Getting the College Center functioning like it should and 

enhancing the Career Development Center Web site are my greatest 

challenges at this time,” stated Quincy. 

“It’s ironic, isn’t it? If you had asked me in high school what 

I’d be doing now, I never would have guessed this! And now this is 

what I do—help students get their careers on track. I love working 

on a college campus.” ❧ Holly Morgan Frye

Spring sports 

Men’s Tennis 

The Shepherd men’s tennis season will have a few question marks 

this year. Senior Scott Eyler’s ineligibility (although he’ll be back 

next year) has now put some extra pressure on head coach Chris 

Stambaugh’s newcomers. Eyler has been leading the way for 

the Rams for the last three years, but now others are forced to 

step up. 

Stambaugh will be counting on big things from Thomas 

Bohrnstedt, Mike Farrell, Greg Selby, Evan Mocyunas, Dan App, 

and captain Adam Kline. Other contributors will be Jason Lewis, 

Steve Askin, and Adam Youssi. 

The Rams are taking aim at a first place finish after finishing 

second at the WVIAC Tournament last year. “I don’t know 

if we’re there yet,” Stambaugh stated. “We need to keep working 

harder. I think Eyler being on the team may have put us 

over the top, but I don’t want to say ‘wait until next year.’ I’ve 

put the responsibility on my shoulders to get these young freshmen 

ready to compete. My expectations are high for them. I 

know Thomas, Mike, Greg, and Adam will carry a lot of the 

load but I need a couple other guys to step up. We have a chance. 

I’ll know better in April whether I’ve done a good job.” 

Golf 

Head coach Mike Jacobs and his team will have to begin the 

season without the services of standout Jason Pierson. Pierson 

suffered an off-season back injury and is not expected to rejoin 

the team until April. 

Moving up to No. 1 will be Justin Pugh who medaled at 

the Stonebridge Invitational last fall. Pugh is a junior with a 

great short game. No. 2 and No. 3 will be played by either Billy 

Clusman or Mike Masters, both of whom are freshmen with a 

good fall season behind them. No. 4 will be junior Ross Shapiro 

who has always posted dependable scores in the past three years. 

Rounding out the team and vyung for the No. 5 spot will be 

sophomores Mat Segal, Glenn Oliveria, and Tom Mohler. 

Softball 

The Rams will try to build upon last year’s fourth place finish 

at the WVIAC Tournament as they open the 2001 campaign 

with a new head coach, V.J. Brown. 

Junior first baseman Amanda Fleming, sophomore pitcher/ 

outfielder Jill Hood, and junior second baseman Shea Sirbaugh 

head the list of returnees at Shepherd. 

Fleming set single-season records in 2000 with seven home 

runs and 15 doubles. She led the team in batting with a .443 

average and also drove in 45 runs. 

Sirbaugh, a first team WVIAC All-Conference choice last 

year, batted .434 with 46 hits, 35 runs scored, and 10 stolen 

bases. She also added 23 RBIs. 

Hood set a single season record with 99 strikeouts and fash- 

ioned a 3.26 ERA as a freshman last season. She also batted 

.316 as the leadoff hitter for the Rams last year. 

Baseball 

Head coach Wayne Riser and his staff look to rebound after an 

uncharacteristic 19-22 mark in 2000. 

Senior outfielder Adam Straskulic (.397, 5 HR, 34 RBIs) 

returns as one of the league’s top hitters. Riser also hopes for 

big things from senior catcher Brian Tozer (.328, 20 RBIs) and 

senior designated hitter/outfielder Tyler Gaines (.352, 4 HR, 22 

RBIs). Junior pitcher Preston Miller (4-4, 4.97 ERA) is the top 

returning pitcher for the Rams. Newcomers Brian Powell (SS/P) 

and Zac Couturiaux (3B) should make an immediate impact 

for the Rams after enjoying successful junior college careers at 

Allegany College. 

The Rams will again have a very challenging schedule. Shepherd 

will face a pair of teams ranked in the NCAA II Preseason 

Poll in Shippensburg (18th) and Mt. Olive (21st). Other nonconference 

opponents include Bloomsburg, Mansfield, and 

UNC-Pembroke as the Rams prepare for conference action. ❧ 

Shepherd duo shines in Cactus Bowl 

James Rooths Dalevon Smith 

Two members of the Shepherd College football team recently 

enjoyed banner efforts in the Cactus Bowl in Kingsville, Texas. 

The pair participated for the East Squad in the annual Division 

II All-Star contest. 

Senior All-Americans James Rooths (Baltimore, Maryland) 

and Dalevon Smith (Beaverton, Oregon) both faired 

well as Shepherd’s two representatives in the game. 

Smith scored the contest’s first touchdown on a 7-yard 

pass from Slippery Rock’s Randy McKavish. The nation’s leading 

rusher finished the evening with 46 yards on 11 carries. 

He also caught a pair of passes for 18 yards. 

Rooths, who was twice featured on ESPN for his prowess 

as a punt returner, was the leading tackler for the East 

All-Stars with six stops, four of which were solo tackles. The 

three-time All-American also had the contest’s longest punt 

return of 21 yards. He added a pair of kickoff returns for 36 

yards. The contest ended in a 33-33 tie. ❧

New school record 

Women set mark with 20 wins 

The Shepherd women’s basketball team finished the year with 20 

wins to set a new school record. Head coach Betsy Blose’s team 

capped a stellar season with a 20-7 overall record, including a 15- 

3 record in the WVIAC. The 20-7 record also set a new school 

mark for winning percentage (.741). Shepherd’s 15 conference wins 

ties the school record (15-4, 1998-99), while 

the 15-3 (.833) WVIAC record sets a new school 

mark for conference winning percentage. 

Freshman guard Cassie Murray became the 

first player in program history to earn First 

Team WVIAC All-Conference honors. Murray 

was also selected to the All-Freshman team. 

Murray led the Rams in scoring (13.7 

Cassie Murray 

ppg), rebounding (6.0 rpg), and steals (1.6 

spg). She also set a new Ram season mark with 

41 three-pointers. 

Also earning All-Conference honors for the Rams were juniors 

Gail Siemer and Makia Staves. The duo was named to the 

Honorable Mention team. 

Siemer came off the bench for the Rams to average 6.3 points 

and 4.6 rebounds, while Staves was second on the team in scoring 

(8.1 ppg) and rebounding (5.8 rpg). Staves also led the team in 

field goal percentage (.514, 94-183). 

Seniors Kassandra Kilby and Stephanie Schwandt completed 

fine careers for the Rams. Kilby finished among the leaders on the 

all-time scoring and rebounding charts. She completed her career 

ranked 13th on the all-time scoring chart with 886 career points, 

while her 482 career rebounds place her 12th on the all-time rebounding 

list. 

Schwandt, a three-time captain, is one of two players in program 

history to lead the team in rebounding for three seasons. She 

finished her career as the number six all-time leading rebounder 

with 646 rebounds. ❧ Chip Ransom

Men finish with 11-15 mark 

The Shepherd men’s basketball team finished the year with an 

11-15 record, including a 6-12 mark in the WVIAC. 

Senior guard Antar Parkman completed a brilliant career. 

He finished among the leaders on many Shepherd all-time lists. 

His 1,624 career points are 10th on the alltime 

list, while his 609 career rebounds also 

place him 10th. He also recorded 233 career 

assists to place 14th on the Ram all-time list. 

Parkman, a First Team WVIAC All-Conference 

choice for the second straight year, led 

the Rams in scoring (19.7 ppg) and rebounding 

(9.3 rpg). He was named to the 2001 

Daktronics NCAA Division II All-East Re- 

Antar Parkman 

gion Team (second team). 

Also adding a spark to the Ram attack were juniors Demond 

Tapscott and Kenny Cox. Tapscott was second on the team in 

scoring (12.8 ppg) and steals (1.9 spg). His .689 (42-61) free 

throw percentage was best among the Ram regulars. Shepherd’s 

top threat from beyond the arc, Tapscott led the team in threepointers 

with 45. 

Cox was second on the team in rebounding (4.9 rpg) and 

third on the team in scoring (12.6 ppg). He also led the team in 

blocked shots with 28. Cox recorded a season-high 36-point 

effort in a win against Ohio Valley and also added a 35-point 

performance in an overtime victory against Columbia Union. 

Sophomore guard Kevin Newsome led the Rams in assists 

(3.3 apg). One of the team’s top defenders, Newsome recorded 

a team-best 54 steals. ❧ Chip Ransom 

New basketball coach search underway 

Shepherd has begun a national search for a new head coach of 

the men’s basketball team. 

The College relieved Coach Denny Alexander of head 

coaching duties in March. A statement issued by Athletics Director 

Monte Cater stated, “Mr. Alexander has made many 

helpful contributions to Shepherd College, but the team has not 

demonstrated the level of competitiveness that we all expect for 

our men’s basketball team here at Shepherd. After a complete 

review of his tenure at Shepherd, we have decided that the College 

must have new leadership in the program.” 

The new head coach must have appropriate credentials to 

teach college level courses. Until a new coach begins employment, 

the administrative management of the team will be handled 

by the Office of the Athletics Director. The assistant coach has 

been asked to continue during the interim period to maintain 

momentum relating to recruiting. The new head coach will have 

discretion over who will serve as an assistant coach next season. 

During his eight years at Shepherd, Alexander’s record was 

87-127 (.403) overall and 58-90 (.392) in the WVIAC. ❧

honorary board member Dr. Sara Helen Cree, this scholarship award will benefit Shepherd communication majors.

Guy Frank Professor Emeritus Scholarship 

Established through a gift from the Shepherdstown Rotary Club in March 2000, this scholarship honors the longtime 


chair of the Division of Creative Arts, Dr. Guy Frank. Dr. Frank became a member of Shepherd’s music department 

faculty in 1950. He went on to serve as chair of the division from 1957 until he retired in 1984. This scholarship 

honors his leadership and will benefit students in the Music Department. 

Jo Anne Swan Greenlee Prize in Women’s Studies 

This prize was established through an honorarium donated by James G. Greenlee after he spoke last year at Shepherd 

on the topic “The Feminization of the British Missionary Movement, 1870-1914.” Greenlee is professor of history at 

the Memorial University of Newfoundland and a well-known scholar of the history of the British Empire. A panel of 

women’s studies program faculty will select student recipients after screening papers submitted in women’s studies 

courses during each spring semester. 

Andrew D. Michael Theater Scholarship 

This scholarship was established by Andrew D. Michael ’75. The scholarship will provide an annual award, which will 

benefit Shepherd students in the theater department. Michael, who currently serves on the finance committee for 

Shepherd’s Contemporary American Theater Festival, has shown his support for theater at Shepherd by establishing 

this scholarship, which will benefit a male student in theater who demonstrates outstanding talent. The head of the 

theater program will nominate scholarship recipients. 

Louise Leonard Scholarship in Political Science 

Former West Virginia State Senator Louise Leonard, currently of San Francisco, California, established a charitable 

unitrust in the Foundation this year with a gift of appreciated securities. Leonard began her public service career in 

1952 when she served as a volunteer for President Eisenhower. She served in the West Virginia State Senate as a 

Republican from 1969 until 1973. Eventually, the trust will fund scholarships for political science students from West 

Virginia. 

Ram Stadium Expansion Fund 

Phase II of the Ram Stadium Expansion, which will include the construction of a sports facilities center, will be 

dependent upon private gifts. Alumni and friends of Shepherd College have joined together to create this fund and are 

leading a volunteer program to raise the funds needed to complete this project. 

John Thomas Reynolds Scholarship 

This endowed scholarship was established in honor of 1964 Shepherd graduate John T. Reynolds, by his father T. Guy 

Reynolds ’33. The John T. Reynolds Scholarship will benefit Shepherd students who maintain a 3.0 grade point 

average and who meet the College’s financial need requirements. 

Ruth Scarborough Library Expansion Fund 

The current project to construct the addition to the Scarborough Library, which will more than double the size of the 

current building, has been primarily funded through state and federal funds. This fund will hold the donations from 

private individuals, businesses, and foundations, which will make up the balance of the funds needed to complete the 

project. 

ServiceMaster, Inc., Scholarship 

This endowed scholarship was established by ServiceMaster, Inc., and will help financially needy Shepherd students. 

Based in Downings Grove, Illinois, ServiceMaster provides management services to Shepherd College for the Housekeeping

Where there is a will, there is peace of mind 

It is amazing how many people do not have a will designed to 

meet their specific circumstances. Don’t be misled. Everyone 

does have a will; they just do not realize it. No matter what 

state you live in, if you have not designed your own will, rest 

assured that your state government has done it for you. You 

may be unknowingly making gifts through a state-designed will 

to people who you do not intend after your death. 

In writing your will, you may wish to consider charitable 

contributions in your bequest. The Shepherd College Foundation 

has received two major gifts from wills in the past year. 

The donors believed that their gifts to the Foundation would 

make a difference to Shepherd College. Margaret Dunn, of Martinsburg, 

designated 20 percent of her estate to create an endowed 

scholarship fund. The Tom and Margaret Dunn Fund 

will provide approximately 10 students annually with the opportunity 

to attend Shepherd. Dr. Sarah Knutti, of Philadelphia, 

had many academic interests as well as a family tie to the College. 

She chose to include Shepherd’s Scarborough Library in 

her estate plans. Dr. Knutti’s gift makes it possible for the Scarborough 

Library to have funds to assist with its physical expansion 

and its long-term acquisitions needs. 

Both of these benefactors were members of the Foundation’s 

Joseph McMurran Society. They joined other alumni and friends 

to support the College through an estate or other planned gift. 

Why did they and others choose to include Shepherd as a beneficiary 

in their wills? Because a gift by will is one of the easiest 

and most common ways to make a gift to Shepherd College. 

The fact is that current tax laws encourage bequests; consequently, 

a bequest is an excellent way to support the College’s 

programs. Bequests work particularly well for those who are 

unable to make an immediate outright gift, but would like to 

aid the College in the future. 

There are three basic categories of bequests to consider: 

• Specific bequests take the form of an outright gift of securities, 

a specific fund of money, a percentage of an estate, or 

other property. In the will, the individual describes one item 

and gives that particular item to an individual or to an organization, 

such as the Shepherd College Foundation. Specific bequests 

are honored after debts and expenses of an estate are 

paid and before other bequests are distributed. 

• General bequests do not provide for the source of payment 

of the bequest. For instance, an individual who wishes to 

transfer $25,000 to his/her child would simply state the amount 

to be given and to whom, and the executor may honor the bequest 

from any available source in the individual’s estate. 

• Residuary bequests are made from what remains of an 

estate after all expenses, debts, and taxes have been paid and all 

specific and general bequests have been honored. If an individual 

does not make residuary bequests, any asset not mentioned 

specifically in the will is treated as if the person had died 

intestate (without a will). 

There also are two variations of bequests you need to become 

familiar with: 

• Contingent bequests take effect only in the event that all 

other bequests, for whatever reason, fail. This type of bequest 

is not one of the basic categories—that is, specific, general, or 

residuary. Instead, it is a rider that attaches itself to a bequest 

and comes into play only when certain conditions are met. It is 

an excellent way to include the Shepherd College Foundation 

in your will. 

• Charitable bequests are similar to contingent bequests in 

that they, too, overlap the basic types of bequests. The Shepherd 

College Foundation, for instance, can be a beneficiary of a specific, 

a general, or a residuary bequest. You may make charitable 

bequests either outright or in trust (using one of the excellent gift 

mechanisms available from the Shepherd College Foundation). 

When making a bequest to the Shepherd College Foundation, 

an individual’s taxable estate is reduced by a 100 percent 

estate tax deduction for a cash bequest or the fair market value 

of property. This deduction results in tax savings whenever the 

taxable estate—after other deductions—exceeds the amount 

offset by individual estate tax credits. Because the estate taxation 

rate increases with the size of the estate, the larger the taxable 

estate, the greater the potential tax savings per dollar given. 

The Office of College Advancement and the Shepherd College 

Foundation will be happy to assist you and your legal and 

financial advisors. Please call 304/876-5195 or 304/876-5391. 

❧ James A. Watson 

Two new members join the McMurran Society 

JOHN ’88 AND LISA WOLFF ’87, of Hamilton, Virginia, are the two 

newest members of the Joseph McMurran Society. They join more 

that 40 alumni and friends of the College who are members of the 

Society, which recognizes people who include the College in their 

estate plans. 

Estate planning is more important than ever. Remembering 

Shepherd College in your estate plan will not only provide many 

tax benefits for you and your heirs, but will help insure Shepherd’s 

future as a quality institution. One of the ways you can do that is 

through the Joseph McMurran Society. Whether they are gifts by 

will, charitable trusts, life insurance, gift annuities, or other means, 

deferred gifts are an investment in the future of Shepherd College. 

Jim Watson, College Advancement, and Monica 

Lingenfelter, Shepherd College Foundation, are available to 

answer your questions and work with you to help develop an 

estate gift to Shepherd. They can consult with you and your 

financial and legal advisors to ensure that the plans you develop 

will maximize the usefulness of your assets. Please call 

the Foundation Office at 304/876-5391 or the College Advancement 

Office at 304/876-5195 for assistance. ❧

Student video 


discussions with Williams to 

have his fall semester class 

create a video that would be 

specifically targeted toward 

the children of domestic violence. 

In order to create the current 

video, the fall Advanced 

Production class spent about 

a week in pre-production, 

about three or four days to 

shoot the scenes for the video, 

and two weeks to edit. While 

some students had specific assignments, 

much of the 

workload was shared and 

tasks were interchanged. 

These included digital editing, 

writing, treatment, storyboarding, 

camera operating, 

sound, talent, and character 

generation. The other students 

working on the project included 

Emily Bachschmid, 

Chris Alcala, Dan Nail, Jamie 

Lee, Amber Nichols, Jennifer 

Elliot, Paola Torres, Stephanie 

Schwandt, Leighann McCausland, 

and Jill Lester. Dr. Williams 

provided music for the 

video. 

To these students, the 

time and effort were well 

worth it. 

“This project was not so 

much for a grade,” said 

Dinardo. “It was more for 

public awareness.” 

Zoeller agreed. “It was 

satisfying to work on something 

that had a greater social 

value.” ❧ Timothy D. Haines 

Phonathon raises $61,000 in pledges 

This year’s Annual Fund phonathon was the most successful 

ever, with $61,726 pledged from 1,345 persons.This success is 

due to the alumni who made generous pledges to support needs 

at the College not covered by other funds. A listing of all donors 

completing their gifts and pledges will be available in the 

annual report in December’s Shepherd College Magazine. We 

hope to see your name there. Thank you to the alumni who 

took the time to talk to one of our 250 phonathon volunteers 

making calls for the Annual Fund Phonathon. 

If you are undecided about how much to give or whether 

to give, please consider the following: 

• The Annual Fund supports academic and athletic 

scholarships, departmental programs, faculty development 

and research, and the purchase of equipment. 

• The Fund covers those needs that the College’s state 

budget cannot. 

• Every dollar donated is tax deductible and can be 

designated by the donor to a specific fund or for general 

needs. 

Each year, area businesses donate items and services as prizes 

for the many volunteers who work at the phonathon. When 

you patronize any of the following businesses, please thank them 

for helping your alma mater.

Change Service Requested 


Alumni, friends, and parents have made gifts to engrave 

some 450 bricks to be installed at the stadium during summer 

2001. 

The engraved bricks will be placed on the walls of the 

newly expanded Ram Stadium to be viewed for generations 

to come. Dedication ceremonies will take place on September 

1, the first day of the home 2001 football season. 

“It has been a privilege to be part of this project,” said 

Jim Schmitt, member of the Ram Stadium Expansion Committee 

and president of Schmitt Construction, Shepherdstown. 

In addition to Jim’s leadership and expert advice over 

the past few months, his enthusiasm for the project has lead 

him to offer his services to complete the brick installation 

project. He will be wielding a saw and trow alongside master 

mason Michael Hauver as the esteemed names of our 

alumni and friends take their honored places on the Shepherd 

campus. 

Ken Boone, chair of the Ram Stadium Expansion Committee, 

notes that the first firing of the engraved bricks may 

encourage other alumni and friends to purchase a brick. 

“Bricks may still be purchased throughout the next year. 

We plan to fire additional bricks in lots of 100. We will 

continue the gift program until the locker room facilities 

building, Phase II of the Stadium Expansion, is completed. 

Once the field house is constructed, the brick program could 

continue and provide some scholarship and equipment revenue 

for Shepherd’s athletic program.” ❧
