Capturing CC Seniors in the middle of things, it turns out, is slightly more difficult than getting into Introduction to Music 9th block-, not only are they usually somewhere far away from cameras, but even when we could manage to find them, they often possessed rather blurry tendencies — not conducive to the best (?) of photographs. Seemingly, most seniors have resorted (or graduated) to off campus life — a club crackers for dinner — heatless home — SAGA silverware — no two glasses that match — and no vacuum cleaner existence (which phases them not). Besides, they have other worries . . . like what they ' re going to major in . . . and of course the comps theses crises . . . and (above all) how well can they say they did on their LSAT ' s and MCAT ' s and still have their friends believe them . . . Consequently, if some appear unusual, they are . . . As Freshmen, Dick Wood told them that despite their previous academic excellence, about one-half of them would graduate in the bottom half of the class. They laughed. As Seniors, many have stopped laughing. They have, however, managed to cope with 3 ' 2 weeks of insanity followed by four days of recuperation each month. Our greatest ability, as humans, is the ability to adapt. Toward this end, most students have, by their senior year, adopted certain survival attitudes. Laid Back is the expression, and as such, many are presented — in this, their senior section. Actually, some are presented several times, some are never presented, and some presented are not even seniors, alas. Nevertheless, we ' ve given it the good ol ' college try (which is an expression used only by those who have never been to college and seen it in action . . . ), and thus the Nugget presents, with varying amounts of pride, Some . . . SOME SENIOR OFFICERS AND REPRESENTATIVES: Kari Gerlach, Ralph Heninger, John McGlynn, Steve Glista, Lainey Moeser, Jim Madsen (seated) I. SENIORS for the most part Helen Jackson (1911) with nephew Gordon Jackson (1981)

There are some things, dear reader, about this 81st volume of the Nugget, that require explanation if not excuse. For example, there are words, as you have undoubtedly noticed by now. Some words name people in pictures; these words name people left to right, top to bottom (clever, no?) — unless we say different. Other words may provide entertainment and or edification. Still other words are possibly extraneous and can be overlooked. It ' s up to you: remember the First Amendment. Also remember the Second Law of Thermodynamics; all things do move toward entropy — even yearbooks (especially this yearbook). In fact, not wanting to disobey any laws, we followed all Three. We never created or destroyed any energy; we entropied, and we expect we ' ll be getting some equal though opposite reaction. Of some reaction at least, we ' re quite sure — like from the people who should have been but aren ' t included within this ordered energy. But, we have the Law on our side. Besides, most people on this campus are pretty hard to find if you happen to be carrying a camera — and some are impossible to find any time; others, however, are easy to find if you ' re carrying a camera. That ' s why you ' ll see some people quite often — perhaps it ' s not justification, but it ' s true, alas. In the place of many of these missing persons, we have pictures of buildings; partly because they make good subjects-, partly because they stand still and they ' re easy to find, and partly because they may be worth remembering . . .
