Pat Carney and Joe bnipp devoted endless hours (some over spring break) in layout and photography respectively. Dave Pooser was invaluable at group picture time The editors ' friends also played an im- portant role. The index was compiled by Linda Guzman with help from Susan Rankin and Brenda Peinert, who also helped with innumerable administrative tasks. The staff thanks them. Mr. Charles Zuegner functioned as ad- viser to the yearbook staff this year. Z is master of the euphemistic ' helpful reminder ' and gentle, but firm critique. I and my staff received several of these critiques, accompanied by reminders of Deadlines. . .deadlines. . .deadlines. . . and clouds of cigarette smoke. Mr. Z. is, without doubt, the patron saint of the yearbook, and we thank him for all his help and patience. Reflections was to be a conversa- tional, artistically oriented book, and I feel that the staff has done an incredible job. This by combining admittedly meager resources with their own time and considerable talents to produce this chronicle of 1987-88. --Michaelle M. Pearson

A theme... she reflects. Reflections. This 58th edition of the Creighton University Bluejay is an attempt to ac- curately reflect student life at Creighton during the 1987-88 academic year. Our story begins in September 1987. The yearbook staff assembled with high hopes. These were soon shattered due to a drastic reduction in funding from the Stu- dent Board of Governors. The future of the Bluejay looked bleak. Indeed, for a while it looked as though 1987-88 would be left unchronicled. The Bluejay staff valiantly agreed to go ahead with production, in hopes that the fiscal problems would resolve themselves. The lack of funds meant there could be no color pages in the book, and that ap- proximately one hundred pages would have to be cut, but at least there would be a 58th edition of the yearbook. By deadline time in March, the staff had (as yearbook staffs are wont to do) dwindled down to the faithful few.
