Psychology/Sociology Department has received a donation of books from
Carlanda Dragoin, wife of the recently deceased former faculty member
Bill Dragoin. Dr. Dragoin was an avid reader who had interests in art,
evolution, learning, anthropology, and some fiction. These books will be
given to interested faculty and students. We thank Carlanda for making
this kind donation.</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzMLpkObuLTP8bkq0IyfKBPvcyp2aj8aj57bQeXRSdnnRSSwTFZpYp-j-D7nyP5dWCkPmgFUftLHq4NNhCXdm3UJsB45enDydrIX5mUcZzG7_t7ckpOsLSK1Uxgmg56W-qhBdJZmSyV0nTsrZfdHyUBw2cdwx6W3qJubWA3felQa7Ku4zncXzKrtwiRBFI/s4096/DragoinBooks.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3072" data-original-width="4096" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzMLpkObuLTP8bkq0IyfKBPvcyp2aj8aj57bQeXRSdnnRSSwTFZpYp-j-D7nyP5dWCkPmgFUftLHq4NNhCXdm3UJsB45enDydrIX5mUcZzG7_t7ckpOsLSK1Uxgmg56W-qhBdJZmSyV0nTsrZfdHyUBw2cdwx6W3qJubWA3felQa7Ku4zncXzKrtwiRBFI/w400-h300/DragoinBooks.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p>Gary Fiskhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14563066019214984545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8909965503482530198.post-74736817777939076582023-12-29T11:35:00.000-05:002023-12-29T11:35:35.010-05:00In memory of Bill Dragoin<p></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFD0BU9T8GfhASbDCH80s5avXrzgFUFKYW8NaOsrLxrwB-m4NZ6q2kZ0mdiR1n5IQv0Sc-9jl3b4nT9Jw3751k_fqj95eJ5KbNv3BtQVZdpOjfF7onaAspE3kotszpJNTAkxH43Tl1S2n_uj7fVqZ1o02Ep5uaC9UxwIppWfx9P3Jw32ZI4SHetr1yrhQq/s921/BillDragoinMemorial.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="Bill Dragoin" border="0" data-original-height="921" data-original-width="770" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFD0BU9T8GfhASbDCH80s5avXrzgFUFKYW8NaOsrLxrwB-m4NZ6q2kZ0mdiR1n5IQv0Sc-9jl3b4nT9Jw3751k_fqj95eJ5KbNv3BtQVZdpOjfF7onaAspE3kotszpJNTAkxH43Tl1S2n_uj7fVqZ1o02Ep5uaC9UxwIppWfx9P3Jw32ZI4SHetr1yrhQq/w269-h320/BillDragoinMemorial.jpg" title="Bill Dragoin, 1939 - 2023" width="269" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Bill Dragoin, 1939 - 2023</span></td></tr></tbody></table><p></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Bill Dragoin, a retired Professor of Psychology and former Chair of the Psychology/Sociology Department, passed away on December 23, 2023. Our department and his former students from nearly 30 years of service at GSW will miss him. He will be remembered for his leadership and sense of humor. In addition, he made scholarly contributions to the field of evolutionary psychology by exploring the impact of evolution upon human sexuality. E<span style="background-color: white;">veryone who knew him should take the time to read the very <a href="https://www.aldridgefuneralservices.com/obituaries/William-Dragoin/#!/Obituary" target="_blank">well-written biography from the obituary page of the Aldridge Funeral Home</a>.</span></span></p><div style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Here are a few stories and thoughts about Bill Dragoin from his colleagues at Georgia Southwestern State University. </span></div><h3 style="background-color: white; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Tom Johnson - retired Professor of Sociology</span></h3><div style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Bill Dragoin was the Chair of the Psychology/Sociology Department when I came to GSW in 1976. I was immediately impressed with his kindness, energy, and friendliness. He had a large network of close friends both within the college community, as well as the larger Americus community. He steered the Department through almost 30 years of growth and development, and did it with the respect and love of his faculty. While he had a mischievous sense of humor, Bill was also a scholar. He had a boundless curiosity, and his scientific contributions were impressive. He loved to read, and would often share his books and ideas with me. I became Chair for a while after Bill retired, and it was then that I came to understand the myriad responsibilities that came with the job - which magnified my admiration for how fluidly he juggled these responsibilities.</span></div><div style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Bill loved his children - the scholarly Regina, and the rascally Anthony, both inheriting aspects of Bill's character. And he loved his two wives - the lovely Camille, with whom he shared his children, and the equally lovely Carlanda, whom Bill luckily found during his widowerhood. His was a life very richly lived. </span></div><h3 style="background-color: white; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Rick Burns - retired Professor of Psychology</span></h3><div style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: arial;">We all know that Bill enjoyed a practical joke, and he enjoyed a good story, especially if he was telling it. Here is a story about one of his jokes: In the late 70s when Bill and I were young men working as professors in the department at GSW, I had a bout of pneumonia and was in the hospital in Americus. Bill came to visit and brought a nice flower pot with a dead plant of some sort to my room. We both had a good laugh. But I took the dead plant home, and a few days later discovered that a small green leaf had sprouted in the barren soil of the pot. It was the leaf of a Christmas cactus. I tended the Dragoin leaf, which flourished. Today, 46 years later, that original leaf still grows in the bay window of my dining room, and the cuttings from that plant grow in the homes of my friends, and my children, and my grandchildren.</span></div><h3 style="background-color: white; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Gary Fisk - Professor of Psychology</span></h3><div style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: arial;">The first time I met Bill Dragoin was very memorable. My wife and I were touring GSW during a weekday in late Spring, 1999. Bill was busy cleaning out his office in anticipation of retiring in a few weeks. To make conversation, I asked Bill about his retirement plans. He got a twinkle in his eye, then enthusiastically responded "Sex, drugs, and rock and roll!" It was unexpected and quite funny. This short story illustrates his wit and enthusiasm for life. </span></div><div style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Bill and I kept in touch during his retirement. When he moved to a new home, he gave me numerous scholarly books, including some classic psychology works. At parties, he shared entertaining stories about his times at GSW and adventures with other faculty members like Mike Urda. Bill would also send me email messages </span><span style="font-family: arial;">occasionally</span><span style="font-family: arial;"> with discussion about a new visual illusion or interesting psychological phenomena. He was a wonderful colleague who will be missed. </span></div><div style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLl_TQFVJCzzLRXV3-stp3qSUeF_7KGnY1moKG2umgDzDwP8Y4irlxaPdFNe1NfTMLAV_WB48nTkm257CC5i8TOPftfsUDJa8EFatnAmWX7U1QwlDKiIOnXo0Umumph58cApUfrXpFGSvctcoF3HkdvjT1ty3Pj8sPwNXAI-6EH2UPm0dBmPIycgrFy_IO/s1428/BillDragoin3.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Bill Dragoin at GSW, circa 1990s" border="0" data-original-height="1028" data-original-width="1428" height="288" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLl_TQFVJCzzLRXV3-stp3qSUeF_7KGnY1moKG2umgDzDwP8Y4irlxaPdFNe1NfTMLAV_WB48nTkm257CC5i8TOPftfsUDJa8EFatnAmWX7U1QwlDKiIOnXo0Umumph58cApUfrXpFGSvctcoF3HkdvjT1ty3Pj8sPwNXAI-6EH2UPm0dBmPIycgrFy_IO/w400-h288/BillDragoin3.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdbP55q8lHzZBNDikxXrVP5hQ-gbB0pFCqjA2eIanVC5Js-Fnsu85GADLU2zxzDXLY_m1rozMFPXrT3aDoVjsfOIr5yugvsKIcaaepgdHMRC7KjKFBZkaAxpNGZaVVQFdtLui4pUMcLNnqSvMw25iahsLUoWC09Sd5256PmxzBktx0Mvp6vCJXpR_IVi5k/s1468/BillDragoin4.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Bill Dragoin at GSW" border="0" data-original-height="972" data-original-width="1468" height="265" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdbP55q8lHzZBNDikxXrVP5hQ-gbB0pFCqjA2eIanVC5Js-Fnsu85GADLU2zxzDXLY_m1rozMFPXrT3aDoVjsfOIr5yugvsKIcaaepgdHMRC7KjKFBZkaAxpNGZaVVQFdtLui4pUMcLNnqSvMw25iahsLUoWC09Sd5256PmxzBktx0Mvp6vCJXpR_IVi5k/w400-h265/BillDragoin4.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjG48DP_dSqwWX32-B9CqRtXXvHpb831dvf4vnL3lWzp8Y6HypJ2N9iYQIjbOiKiI6CmuyeK3voP-fr4xYFwfFIaaY-_5j0REbaZgf3oUiPqy6xyBqrmxGEFHeG2_P5ZHXg65TdxqJE1JKxySfE7o1K3pWgBNjR6o0i4qA3z64gLH3745bdcsrahUlQYgHx/s1728/BillDragoin.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Bill Dragoin in his office, circa 1990s" border="0" data-original-height="1180" data-original-width="1728" height="274" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjG48DP_dSqwWX32-B9CqRtXXvHpb831dvf4vnL3lWzp8Y6HypJ2N9iYQIjbOiKiI6CmuyeK3voP-fr4xYFwfFIaaY-_5j0REbaZgf3oUiPqy6xyBqrmxGEFHeG2_P5ZHXg65TdxqJE1JKxySfE7o1K3pWgBNjR6o0i4qA3z64gLH3745bdcsrahUlQYgHx/w400-h274/BillDragoin.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div style="background-color: white;"><br /></div><div style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><br /></span></span></div>Gary Fiskhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14563066019214984545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8909965503482530198.post-31489223718789237352023-12-14T17:25:00.000-05:002023-12-14T17:25:15.556-05:00Fall Graduation 2023<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Congratulations to the Psychology/Sociology graduates of Fall, 2023!

He
was a beloved and widely-respected psychology faculty member in the
1980s and 1990s. After retirement, he stayed active in psychology by
doing counseling and psychological
assessments of children in local schools. He was also a bicycle
enthusiast who was frequently seen riding through neighborhoods on
the south side of Americus. The department sends condolences to his family and former students. </p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: left;">Our retired faculty
who worked with Dr. Moates shared the following memories.</p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: left;">Tom Johnson, Professor Emeritus of Sociology: “Lamon had a kind and generous
soul. He was one of my mentors when I first came to GSW, and he
became a respected colleague. He leaves behind a loving extended
family, university colleagues, and a generation of students who were
guided by his knowledge as well as his kindness. His was a life
well-lived, and he will be deeply missed.”</p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: left;">Bill Dragoin, Professor Emeritus of Psychology: “For 26 years, Lamon provided
counseling services under the auspices of the Charles Mix Foundation.
His approach was mostly Rogerian Non-Directive, for which he had a
waiting list of clients and I, as Dept. Chairman received many notes
of praise and thanks for his service.”</p>

She graduated from GSW in the early 1980s with a degree in psychology. She then earned her Ph.D. in Psychology at Auburn University, with specialization in behavioral psychology and psychopharmacology. She eventually returned to GSW and taught for 20 years, including courses like learning theory, evolutionary psychology, and human sexuality. In 2013, she received the <a href="https://www.gsw.edu/news/index/354-worthy-wins-professor-of-the-year-award">Professor of the Year Award</a> from the GSW Alumni Association.
