The world is our campus. This was the challenge that greeted us as we entered through the gates of Brigham Young University and became a part of the 110 year tradition which is our school. A big part of the experience one had as a student at BYU was gained through becoming a part of the campus. BYU's campus is more than grass, buildings J and trees.

At my first press conference, when asked what my hopes were for BYU, I innocently stammered, To achieve academic excel- lence in the context of Lotter-Day Saint values, Well, the Lord blesses fools, children, and new university presidents because now nearly five years and a formal mission statement , later, this is where I still firmly stand. To succeed in this mission the university must provide an envi- ronment enlightened by living prophets and sustained by those moral values which characterize the life and teachings of the Son of God. In this regard, BYU holds a unique and critical place among institutions of higher education, As a university, we will be engaged in the inextricably linked task of seeking truth and acquiring virtue. As students at BYU, I hope you feel a shared responsibility for seeking this kind of success we describe. However, when the final test of your education comes somewhere ages and ages hence as Robert Frost might say, it will not be the grades you received or the particular configuration of your courses or even the length of time it took you to get them or the jobs they may have helped you obtain. What your education will have meant is what hunger and respect and honor you have shown for truth and what virtues, in both the Greek and Hebrew senses of the word, that truth has helped you acquire and demonstrate and share with the world. M ( resident Jeffrey R. Holland, his wife Patricia and children Matthew, David dnd Mary Alice. Commit to Excellence was the theme of the executive council of ASBYU during the 1984-85 school year. ASBYU Student Govern- ment consists of ten elected student body officers and three appointed officers who are united to help serve the student's interests. ASBYU was committed to helping BYU students recognize the best that they can be through offering programs that cater to variety of in- terests and needs. Students were encouraged to gain involvement and leadership exper- ience through the hundreds of programs of- f erred by the student government. ASBYU was every student at BYU working together to achieve common goals and values, to make BYU and ourselves better. ? ■ 18 ASBYU As the official representatives of the student body, Rob Miller and Steve Col- ton oversaw and coordinated all ASBYU programs.

Priesthood brethern were able to hear BYU Head Foot- ball Coach speak to priesthood holders as- sembled worldwide in the General Priest- hood Session, j ACTIVmES 55 To the people of all nations we extend our love and greetings this holy season. We proclaim that the babe born in Bethlehem nearly 2,000 years ago was indeed the Christ, the Savior of all mankind, in Him all humankind-past, present and future-have hope. In Him can be found the personal peace that eludes so much of the world. The events that began in Bethlehem and ended in Jerusalem are the focal point of all history. The humble birth we commemo- rate was prelude to the awesome events of Gethsemane and Calvary, and Christ- mas takes on its deepest meaning when we recall that the ministry that began in a stable ended with an empty tomb. The proper celebration of Christmas is a joyous expression of thanks to God for the marvel- ous gift of His Only Begotten Son. The sea- son's hymns and carols are a continuing echo of the angelic anthems heard by the sheperds. We join with NephI, the propet of old, in proclaiming that we rejoice in Christ. (2 Nephi 25:26) The righteous of ancient times looked forward to His coming with faith and hope. We look back on His mortal ministry with humble gratitude. We also look for- ward with hope and faith to the time when He shall return again. We pray that oil may seek the peace that is to be found in Christ: that all may look beyond the merchandis- ing and socialising to the One whose birth we celebrate. Among the many lands where Christmas is observed, there is a great variety of holiday traditions. We would encourage a tradition of worship- ping through loving service to fellowmen. May the kindness, forgiveness, and person- al righteousness demonstrated by the Sav- ior be manifest in the lives of countless peo- ple throughout the world. For, just as Bethe- lehem's bright star guided the Wise Men to the Savior, Christlike lives today can be a bright beacon to the many who do not yet know of their Redeemer. That all may find the hope and peace that come through Jesus Christ is our fer- vent prayer this Christmas season and al- ways. The First Presidency, Spencer W. Kimball Marion G. Romney Gordon B. l-iinl ley ACTIVITES 56 Christmas on Temple Square ACTIVITIES 57 In keeping with BYU's mission to help edu- cate its students in all facets of life and to help them become better people, many have worked very hard to provide these exper- iences in the arts. Some even gave them- selves. Concerts from the Utah Symphony, jazz groups and string quartets impressed us with the beauty of music and the diversity that beauty possesses. The gallery floor of the Fine Arts Center constantly held displays of visual art from many distinguished artists, all different, all good. Dance troupes lent grace to our lives for the moments they performed — mod- em, ballet, folk, and ballroom. And the Young Ambassadors did their best to moke us smile. Then in the dark the- atres, we heard echoes of laugh- ter and tears. From the Cheer- ful Arsenic and Old Lace to the soul-piercing All My Sons there was some- thing of the human condition to learn. And in the Arts we learned it.

Ht ORGANIZATIONS 97 ■' li 1984 NATIONAL FOOTBALL CAHMPK. Victorious Cougars lift aloft the 1984 championship trophy. WA On a Saturday afternoon back in Sep- tember, Brigham Young University faced the biggest football game in its history against a University of Pittsburgh team which was ranked third in the nation and favored in many circles to win the national championship. Fifteen thousand specta- tors stayed home, not even expecting a close game. After the game was played the 40,000 fans who did attend, the na- tional television audience, and the herald- ed Pittsburgh players fell stunned and silent as the unranked and largely unknown team from the Rockies emerged the 20-14 victors. The national champi- ons did, in fact, play on that Sat urday afternoon in Pitt stadium. But who would have imag- ined it would be the BYU Cougar Football Team! - : 0. o e . W 98 SPORTS SPORTS 99 A New Quarterback The BYU quarterback position has become one of the most covet- ed in college football. Naturally, amidst all the preseason speculation, the number one question around Utah Valley was, could the talent- ed, but untried Robbie Bosco adequately fill the vacancy left by four consecutive Ail-American BYU quarterbacks? It v osn't long before Bosco hod answered the question completely. Among his many achievements, he was second in the nation in passing efficiency in 1985, and came in second in the balloting for the Heisman Trophy, it 100 SPORTS Season Record Pittsburgh 20-14 Baylor 47-13 Tulsa 38-15 Hawaii 18-13 Colorado State 52- 9 Wyoming 41-38 Air Force 30-25 New Mexico 48- 0 UTEP 42- 9 San Diego State 34- 3 Utah 24-14 Utah State 38-13 Michigan 24-17 Hawaii Rainbows put ttie Cougars to a test. Fans enjoy a brief respite in ftie game. '■ 'm t a- f National Rankings Officially called a rebuilding team, the 1984 version of the Cougs hod been devastated by graduation losses. It was largely an inexperienced and untested team that was playing its toughest preseason schedule ever. But by the time BYU had whipped Pitt, Baylor and Tulsa in three succes- sive weeks, even Head Football Coach LoVell Edwards couldn't stem the tide of national rankings hysteria that was sweeping Utah Valley as the numbers next to the Y on the mountain changed almost weekly. Still there were pessi- mists. On October 24, a Salt Lake Tribune headline blasted, BYU Has No Chance for National Championship. M  % LJL I K flfl T'.sSi .

SPORTS 103 Road To The National Championship BYU opened the 1984 foot- ball season exactly how it had ended it in the spectacular 1983 Holiday Bowl finish dubbed the play . (Eddie Stinnett's halfback option pass to Steve Young). It seemed to be an onnen for the season to come. The Pittsburgh crowd was stunned when, on the very first play from scrimmage, Blaine Fowler, who hod slipped unno- ticed into the lineup at half- back position, took the pitch from Bosco and completed a 38-yard option pass to Glen Kozlowski. Later in that same gome, the Cougar offense again rose to the occasion. With three min- utes remaining and BYU trailing 14-12, the Cats took over on their own 26 yard line. They were 74 yards from victory. Bosco, Lokei Heimuli and Koz- lowski combined for 23 yards and soon had the ball on the BYU 49 yard line. 104 SPORTS It was third down and five yards to go with a minute and a half left in the BYU-Pitt contest. Fans were on the edge of their seats as the crucial first down try of the game unfolded. Everyone; includ- ing BYU Coaches, the Pitt defense, even Bosco himself, figured it would be a short pass to get the first down and to thereby keep olive the hope of trying a winning field goal. What happened will long be remembered by Cougar faithful. Bosco dropped back and sow Adam Haysbert tearing across field behind the Pittsburgh defenders which had moved up. Bosco let loose a spiral which sailed over the outstretched fingers of a desperate Pitt defender and safely into Haysbert's hands. He went untouched the rest of the 51 yards to give BYU its winning touchdown. Helping the Cou- gars to serve the Pitt Panther's their first defeat of the season, 20- ■14. Such was the first of many spectacular clutch performances by the 1984 Cougar Football Team, ir SPORTS 105 The Defense Shined 1984 saw the emergence of a brand new phenomenon in Cougar football-DEFENSE Who can forget the waning seconds of the Pittsburgh game when the Panthers could have pulled off a victory on fourth-and-six of the BYU 29? BYU rushed hard and Pitt QB Cummings had to scramble to find an open receiver. But. BYU's sec- ondary had everyone covered and Jim Hermann and Leon White smashed Cummings to the ground. Seconds later. BYU had its biggest victory ever defeating the Pitt Pan- thers 20-14. Later in the season, there was the brave goal line stand against Air Force when the Falcons had a fourth-and-goal on the one yard line. BYU's great defensive line held and big 'D' went on to limit the nation's number one rushing offense to 1 19 yards, well below its average, • aii. --•W r 1 f k r K Mk dH H i G USS HiTncw«nJn!5 B Ft ' t- ■i ' P k me USS KittrHowk iTs me ci:dc lY Bo i jpnr oarage r Another play, the goal line stand against Hawaii, will long be remembered. Late in the gome. Hawaii had a first-and-goal on the two yard line. For two downs they wouldn't pene- trate the BYU line which held their stance, though pushed back to within six inches of the goal line. This time it was third and goal with the boll practically resting on the goal line. As the boll was snapped the defensive line gave one last push. At that precise instant, defen- sive safety Kyle Morrell. timing himself perfect- ly with the snap of the football, jumped over both teams' linemen, came down behind the Hawaii quarterback, and grabbed his shoul- ders pulling him backwards. Meanwhile, the defensive line surged forward which caused Hawaii to actually lose yardage, Hawaii got three points on a field goal but. the brilliant touchdown saving goal line stand by the Cou- gar defense gave the team the uplift it need- ed to make the final drive which won the game, H 1 106 SPORTS l , 10 nhU ? Bonn por -■ nmUkW- Reaching Supramecy After the Utah game on Saturday, November 17, one could feel excitement in the air. As everyone intently lis- tened to their radios, the only other undefeated teams in the nations, Nebraska and South Carolina v ere beaten. The next Monday, every poll proclaimed what Cougar fans had believed all along: BYU after 64 years, had finally made it to the top. 4 AP Top Ten Brigham Young Washington Florida Nebraska Boston College 13-0-0 6.

BYU fans also saw the in- troduction of the wave , which they had mastered by season's end. The ever pre- sent army of orange-clad portal monitors saw to it that the pigskin wasn't thrown around the stadium after PATs and field goals. This year's season also saw the introduc- tion of some brand new types of after point celebrations which included the showering of plastic cup lids and tortillas through the stands. A new policy allowed signs and banners into the stadium and as the season wore on, fans had responded with imo- ginitive banners of all shapes and sizes. Anti Bryant Gumbel posters seemed to hove the most widespread popularity, next to (of course) BYU 1 banners. Fan participation went even further at some point when referees went flag hap- py in the Utah State game, wiping out an apparent BYU touch down and eventually pushing the Cougars bock to third down and 54 yards to go, the entire stadium erupt- ed in yellow as fans brought out their own flogs , which included napkins, blankets and jackets, and waved them back tauntingly at the referees.

While fans were still celebrating the achievements of the National Champi- on Football team, the BYU basketball team was getting off to a slow start. With attendance at basketball games well below last years average, the cougar cagers were struggling to overcome their two main weaknesses, inexperience and inconsistency. Al- though, inexperience, as was manifest by the apparent inability to execute the basics at crucial moments, was to prove very costly at times, the addition of a few young but talented players to the cougar lineup was a definite plus. Some of the new faces included, Eric Kellogg, Tom Gneiting, and Brian Fink, all of whom were junior college transfers and some talented freshmen including Jeff Chatman, Anthony Mathews, and Alan Pollard. The basketball team did play well enough to stay in contention for the WAC crown for most of the season, as well as chalking up some impressive wins against 7th ranked Washington and UCLA. The Cougars threw the race wide open at one point by upsetting the league-leader UTEP at home. But, in El Paso, they lost a hearbreaker in triple overtime. Veteran forward, Timo Saarelainen, was the man whom the Cougars could rely upon most of the time. Saarelainen, who averaged about 24 points, was named to the all-western Athletic Con- ference team.

Brigham Young University was well known as the home of some of the finest collegiate athletic teams in the nation. Although the Cougar football and bas- ketball teams received much of the publicity during the year, BYU was home to a variety of both men's and women's athletic teams. Soccer, volleyball, gymnas- tics, wrestling, baseball, ski- ing and others all found a place among the athletic teams of BYU. The next pages represent the wide variety of athletic competi- tion available at BYU. « 116 H ' i 118 The years 1984 and 1985 will long be remembered as a time of exciting na- tional and international news stories. Events wtiicti happened all over the globe effected and changed BYU stu- dent's everyday life. 1984 was a year of sparkling celebri- ties. Rock star Michael Jackson em- barked on his multi-million dollar Victory Tour visiting over a dozen U.S. cities. The annual Academy Awards were held in the spring with Terms of Endearment and it's stars Shirley Maclaine and Jack Nicholson taking top honors. The traditional Miss America Pageant was the scene of controversy as Vanessa Williams surrendered her title to Suzanne Charles after sexually explicit photos were revealed. BYU student Sharlene Wells brought the pageant closer to home when she was crowned the 1985 winner. Britains Prince Charles and Princess Diana added another royal member when Prince Henry was born in Septem- ber. Sports played an importont part of our lives as the winter and summer Olympics were held. The winter games in Yugoslavia saw the U.S. win 4 gold and 4 silver medals. Skater Scott Hamil- ton and skiier Steve Monro emerged as the stars of the games. The summer Olympics held in Los Angeles saw a vir- brant U.S. team capture 174 medals. Carl Lewis, Peter Vidmor, and Mary Lou Retton all excelled in their events. The gomes brought a renewed sense of pa- triotism to the country. The 1984 World Series sow the Detroit Tigers capture the title over the San Diego Padres 4 gomes to 1. Professional football fans saw Chica- go's Walter Payton break Jim Brown's 12,312 yard career rushing record dur- ing the 1984 season. The Super Bowl pit- ted the 49ers against a strong Miami Dolphin team, the 49ers came out on top. The Statue of Liberty started on a two year restoration in July of 1984.
