AGNES SCOTT 
PARENTS COUNCIL 
Saturday, November 8, 1986 
would like to invite you to 
take a first-hand look at your 
daughter's life at Agnes Scott. 
Involvement in Agnes Scott's 
Parents Council gives you 
opportunities to meet faculty 
members with whom your 
daughter is studying and keeps you 
up-to-date on what's happening on 
campus-what improvements are 
being made to the physical 
environment in which your 
daughter lives and what new 
learning opportunities are being 
provided. 
I encourage you to join us at the 
November 8 meeting of the 
Parents Council. In addition to 
participating in the Council's 
general meeting, you can attend .. 
faculty presentations, meet faculty 
members over brunch, tour the 
campus, and bring yout questions 
to a panel of staff members from 
the Admissions, Career Planning 
and Dean of Students offices. I 
hope to see you November 8.

Student Handbook 1986-1987

Rededication of 
Agnes Scott and Rebekah Scott Halls 
October 10, 1986 
Agnes Scott Hall 
Built in 1891 
Original Cost: $82,500 
Renovation Cost: $1,900,000 
Student Rooms: 50 
Student Capacity: 91 
Rebekah Scott Hall 
Built in 1905 
Original Cost: $70,000 
Renovation Cost: $1,700,000 
Student Rooms: 51 
Student Capacity: 83 
Agnes Scott Hall, or "Main" as it is popularly called, was 
named for founder Colonel George Washington Scott's 
mother. In the early years of the College, the entire institution 
was housed in Main. Today Agnes Scott Hall houses the 
President's office, which has been returned to M'in; the 
Student Health Center; and the Dean of Students, Career 
Planning and Placement, and Financial Aid offices, in addition 
to the student rooms. · 
Perhaps the most exciting feature of Main's renovation is the 
specially hand-cast bronze bell that was purchased for the bell 
tower, which has been empty for reasons unknown since its 
construction. 
Rebekah Scott Hall, named for Colonel Scott's wife, is home 
for the admissions office and is the temporary location for the 
student activities and chaplain's offices. In addition to the 
student rooms on the upper floors, Rebekah contains the 
splendid Rebekah Reception Room, a conference room and 
Victorian parlors. 
In both Main and Rebekah, the extensive renovations have 
blended modern convenience with period decor to create a 
quality environment in which to work and live.
