The Playboy Photoshoot at White Arches and Southern Womanhood

...And in 1981 her daughter, a college student at one of the finer institutions of the South became one of the Girls of the Southeastern Conference part 1 in Playboy's September issue at a photoshoot held in White Arches in Columbus, Mississippi. 

Yep, in all their glory lovely ladies from all over the SEC converged on Columbus, Mississippi to show as my daddy would say, “their name, address, and phone number” in various provocative poses at White Arches. Playboy photographers David Chan and Arny Freytag posed the girls in various stages of undress on the verandah, the front parlor, the library, on wicker chairs, and on leather wingbacks. The high beds and antique lamps never looked prettier set off by the coquettish co-eds. Why does the wholesome nursing student leaning on the porch rails look like the girl next door partially wearing some man’s oversized button-down falling off her shoulders? And Miss Alabama looks fit to be “tide” on the back verandah. 

I wonder where they are now? Would they come back and tell of their experience with Playboy?
