Squawks Aid New Students More than 6500 students stood in the 1001 lines at registration each quarter: classes, auditors, meal ticket, scholarship: New students had extra help in the strange procedure in the form of SQUAWKS. (Students Questions Understood and Answered With Knowledge.). An outgrowth of the Orientation Committee, these volun- teers aid newcomers and their par- ents, giving directions and answering questions. During registration the Squawkers are available to assist the new students. — 1 m Registration Students Unwind a Fall quarter had been in session for less than a month, but when the Ogeechee State Fair came to States- boro, many of the GSC students seized the opportunity to unwind. For the students who had a little money leftover after registration, the fair provided the occasion to go out with new found friends and take in the rides and sideshows. 18 Ogeechee State Fair )geechee State Fair Halloween Spooks GSC Students 20 Halloween 22 They ' ll Come From Everywhere 1776 Bic iai 91976 SOUTH CAROLINA They ' ll Come From Everywhere 23 Mother ' s Finest And White Face Ignite Fall Quarter Mother ' s Finest and White Face treated GSC students to their first rock ' n roll show of the 1978-79 school year. More than 3,400 people were on hand October 26 in the Han- ner Fieldhouse for the progressive rock performance. White Face opened the event and set the tempo for a dynamic light and special effects show presented by MF. The one-hour performance con- sisted of hits including Mickey ' s Monkey. However, much of the audience left disappointed because their most recent hit, A Piece of The Rock, was not played. The concert proved to be the first main attraction of the year, with over two-thirds of the audience consisting of GSC students. Not only was the fall show a participation success, the Stu- dent Union Board termed the project a definite financial success. 24 Mother ' s Finest World of Illusion In Hanner Fieldhouse Andre Kole Performs Two Hours of Magic Billed as the greatest magician and illusionist of our time, Andre Kole appeared live in the Hanner Fieldhouse on February 8. The two- hour production was presented by the Campus Crusade for Christ Inter- national. Kole ' s World of Illusion dealt with varied subject matters, ranging from levitation to the mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle. Other acts included Psychic Surgery, Pyra- mid Power, Return of the Dead, and Dematerialization. The show was designed to link fan- tasy and reality while dealing with many spiritual questions. The show, coupled with elaborate lighting, was a magical and spiritual entertain- ment spectacular. The show has been seen by over 70 million people in 68 countries on 5 continents. 2b I World of Illusion Pure Prairie League, Dixie Dregs Kick-off Homecoming 28 Pure Prairie League Pure Prairie League and Dixie Dregs performed in Hanner Field- house, January 25, kicking off Home- coming weekend. A less-than-capac- ity crowd attended the SUB-spon- sored event. The Dregs opened with a cut from their What If album, Take It Off The Top, featuring guitarist Steve Morse. Moedown, Ice Cakes, and Cruise Control followed. As an encore, the Dregs danced around the stage to Disco Dregs. Kansas City Southern was the opening song for Pure Prairie League. They followed with I ' ll Fix Your Flat Tire, Merle, Pickin ' to Beat the Devil, and the title cut from Two Lane Highway. After long guitar solos, the band finally played perhaps its biggest hit, Ami. Homecoming 1979 A New Beginning Pat Fetter First Male Queen A New Beginning thematized the 1979 Homecoming activities that began with the Pure Prairie League Dixie Dregs concert on Thursday evening, )anuary 25. Originally from Georgia, the Dregs warmed-up the audience for the PPL, who is probably best known for its hits Ami and Two Lane Highway. On Friday afternoon Renarda Baker led the Lady Eagles to a 72-60 win over the University of Georgia Bulldogs in the weekend ' s first sports event. The same afternoon saw GSC defeated by one sec- ond in a swim meet against Georgia State. The time was lost in the 400-yard-frees- tyle, resulting in a final score of 59-54. The world-famous Budweiser Clydes- dales, in a rare college parade appear- ance, joined floats, clowns, cars, bands, and marchers on Saturday morning as the rain-soaked parade traveled down Fair Road and South Main Street. More than 4,000 fans watched GSC fall to the Augusta Jaguars, 88-86, in Satur- day ' s basketball game. During halftime Pat Fetter became GSC ' s first male home- coming queen as he was crowned by Debbie Harper, 1978 queen. Fetter, spon- sored by WVGS, was joined in the court by five other finalists: Angie Bellamy (Kappa Sigma), Kimberly Byrd (Sigma Nu), Brenda Lee )ordan (Alpha Kappa Alpha), Beth Mathis (Johnson Hall), and Lee Rohner (GSC Student Recreation and Park Society). Alumni reunions were held on Friday and Saturday, with an Alumni luncheon preceding Saturday ' s ballgame. Former Georgia Governor Carl Sanders, keynote speaker at the luncheon, was honored by a monument dedication for his work as chairman of the Stay and See America in Georgia America Bicentennial Program. Dr. Woodrow Powell, GSC professor of English, was named GSC Alumnus of the year by Kathy Martin, director of alumni affairs. 1 Homecoming 33 Field of 50 Participate In First Annual Dale Lick Rur Kina, Faris, and Carpenter Take Top Honors The first annual Dale Lick Run was held October 31, sponsored by the intramural department. A field of 50 hopefuls turned out for the event to run the 5,000 meter coarse. In the men ' s division, Paul Kina took top honors with a 15 minute two second timing. Debbie Faris out- paced her opponents to capture the women ' s crown. Her time was 19 minutes two seconds. Harry Carpen- ter won the faculty division posting a 17 minute three second timing. 34 Dale Lick Run Alison Delany Miss GSC 1979 Alison Delany was crowned Miss GSC 1979 on Saturday evening, March 10, out of a field of ' 18 contest- ants. Angie Joyner was runner-up and also the winner of the swimsuit com- petition. Marti Brazill won the talent competition. A sophomore from Atlanta, Alison sang a medley of Linda Ronstadt songs which she plans to sing in the Miss Georgia pageant in June. She represented GSC in the Miss Savan- nah pageant on March 27. CLEC Presents Six Programs in 1978-79 Series The Campus Life Enrichment Committee (CLEC) sponsored six events, including a play, jazz concerts, and ballet, during its 1978-79 series. Antigone, a john Housman production, was performed by The Acting Company on October 12 in McCroan Auditorium. Labeled as the finest repertory company in New York by the New York Times, The Acting Company consists of 15 professional actors under the direction of Alan Schneider. Their presentation of Antigone is a modern dress version of the Greek classic by Sophocles. The play emphasizes the tragic view of life that requires a price for everything received in this world. It focuses on the conflict between man ' s law and moral law, political expediency and human dignity. The )amz Dutton Percussion Arts Orches- tra appeared in concert November 30 in Foy Auditorium. Eight musicians blended the contemporary idiom with the classical disci- pline, using 100 instruments with 1000 sounds to produce American, Latin, and Afri- can styles. Each member of the group plays almost every instrument the group uses. The primary instrument is the marimba. Other unusual ones include the African Kalimba, Go-Go Bells, Cabaza, Temple Blocks, Anti- que Cymbals, and Lujon Drums. Dutton, leader of the group, described their sound as exotic, wild, and free. CLECs third program was a Nina Beilina vio- lin concert on January 16 in Foy Auditorium. Acclaimed as Russia ' s foremost woman violin- ist, Miss Beilina has won three major interna- tional competitions — Enesco, Jacques Thi- baud-Marguerite Long, and Tchaikovsky. She has toured in every major USSR city as well as Eastern Europe and South America. Her reper- toire includes complete Bach and Beethoven cycles. Her CSC appearance was part of a USA tour which included her New York debut. The Rod Rodgers Dance Company held a workshop on February 27 and performed in McCroan, Feb. 28 and March 1. The company has been in existence for 15 years. Although it is a predominantly black group, it has demon- strated its ability to appeal to audiences of all age and ethnic origins. The scope of the Company ranges from sen- suous abstraction to more literal drama. It fea- tures innovative jazz ballets and unique per- cussion plays. It also maintains a year-round studio-school in New York. CLEC 39 The Newport jazz Festival All-Stars are veter- ans of the Newport )azz Festival, which has been called the great granddaddy of jazz fes- tivals. The seven member group performed in McCroan Auditorium on March 13. Last summer they celebrated their 25th anni- versary on the South Lawn of the White House with President and Mrs. Carter. The seven members are: Buddy Tate, saxo- phone; lohnny Mince, clarinet; George Masso, trombone; jimmy Maxwell, trumpet; Ray Bryant, piano; Major Holley, bass; David Pan- ama Francis, drums. The Brazilian guitarists, Los Indios Tabajaras, performed in Foy Recital Hall May 3. Rising from a primitive Tabajaras Indian tribe, the duo is now acclaimed as virtuosos on four continents, having appeared in theatres and concert halls of both Americas, Europe, and Asia. They design their own instruments and per- form their interpretations of popular and clas- sic works. CLEC 41 If Tabl Could Talk . 42 If Tables Could Talk Strong reasons make strong actions. — Shakespeare 2 A 44 Strong Reasons Chic Performs In Disco Concert Chic and the ADC Band appeared in CSC ' s first disco concert on Wed- nesday, April 11. Performing in front of only 1,296 people, the ADC Band led off with Reggae Dance, Baby Love, and Long Stroke. Chic per- formed their hit single Le Freak, as well as At Last I Am Free, Chic, and Savoir Faire. The SUB-sponsored event proved to be fatal to their budget. Out of an average of 6,500 students only 500 attended the concert, creating a loss of $12,000. Chic 47 48 Games Students Play GSC Groups Sponsor Career Awareness Day The first campus-wide Career Awareness Day was sponsored on April 18 by the GSC Placement Office, Delta Sigma Pi, and Pi Sigma Epsilon. Representatives from about 50 firms were housed under tents adja- cent to the Rosenwald Building. The purpose of the program is to provide students with an opportunity to dis- cuss careers, hiring trends, and edu- cational requirements with a variety of age ncy, business, and organization representatives. Businesses included Bulloch Mem- orial, IBM Corporation, Georgia Power, Union Camp Corporation, Goodyear Tire and Rubber, Eastern Airlines, and Franklin Insurance Company. Career Awareness Day 51 GSC Helps County Sponsor Alcohol Awareness Festival The Bulloch County Alcohol and Drug Abuse Council along with Stu- dent Affairs and the Housing Depart- ment at GSC sponsored an Alcohol Awareness Festival, May 8, at GSC. The festival, which highlighted Alcohol Awareness Week (May 7-11), was held at Landrum Center. The festival covered both the pros and cons of alcohol, said Linda Serf, house director at Warwick Hall. Facts were given on the choices and responsibilities of alcohol abuse. All philosophies were presented, she said. Thirty to 40 exhibitions were open to students, staff, administration, and the community. Campus dorms participated in a bulletin board contest and in a win- dow painting contest at Landrum. 52 Alcohol Awareness Festival Alcohol Awareness Day 53 Students Honored, Bice Named Professor of the Year Dr. Herbert Bice, GSC math profes- sor, was named Professor of the Year at the annual Honors Day Convoca- tion on May 14. Bice was chosen by student vote conducted by Gamma Beta Phi. The keynote address was given by Dr. Sam Riley, 1978 Professor of the Year. Among the awards received, Cecil Baxter Bray III was named recipient of the 1979 Alumni Association Scholarship Award.

The Eagles were eliminated in a game against Delta State, losing 4-3. Tied 3-3, going into the seventh inning, GSC came up with a two-out, bases loaded situation, but failed to connect. In their half of the inning, Delta State loaded the bases because of a couple of GSC errors, and pushed across the winning run, nailing down the 4-3 victory. In the Regional, )anet Reddick went 8 for 12 at bat and produced the only GSC homerun in the three games. 106 Worn Women ' s Softball 107 110 Women ' s Softball GSC Hosts Tourney; Eagles Win State Title The Lady Eagles captured the Geor- gia State Championship title for the second straight year, earning the right to participate in the region tour- ney in Tallahassee, Fla.

Chess Club 185 Southern Rugby Club Emphasis Is on If Team Effort, Spirit The Southern Rugby Club, formed last spring by Pat Thornton and Skip Hansen, is growing by leaps, bounds, and crutches. Rugby originated in Great Britain in the early 1800 ' s at the rugby school. Games are called matches, the playing field is called a pitch, and a goal is called a try. There are no time outs during a 90-minute match other than the five minute half. No substitutions are allowed, and, if a player is injured and carried off the field, the team plays without replacement. Considering the cutthroat nature of rugby, the spirit of camraderie shared by the players is astonishing. And, even though rugby isn ' t a delicate game, serious injuries are rare. The spirit of the game is what really counts. The public and rugger huggers, or cheerleaders, are invited to all games. Skip Hansen, President; Pat Dobbins, Match Secretary; Pat Thornton, Captain; Bob Boone, Treasurer; Jim Mad Dog Atkinson and David Flesch, Public Relations; Father John Howells and Bill May, Honorary Coaches. 186 Southern Rugby Club Soccer Club It ' s a Kick in the Grass The Georgia Southern Soccer team is alive and kicking.

Since each student contributes a certain amount of money to the Board through an activity fee which is divided among various college agen- cies by the Activity Fee Budget Committee, the Board is viewed as a student union, thereby being run by appointed students who serve as a representative organ. SUB-sponsored events included the Milwau- kee Ballet Company, Mother ' s Finest and White Face concert, Chic concert, and dozens of free Wednesday and weekend movies.

During the four years that WVGS has been in operation, it has widened in scope and now offers such diverse pro- grams as The Great Atlantic Radio Conspiracy, The Chicago Sym- phony Orchestra, and The Comic Interlude. The radio station has gone through four managers; three different logos: a progressive alternative, the radio station, and the current radio for you ; and many, many disc jock- eys. Begun by a group of dedicated individuals, WVGS was unique in that it was album-oriented, free form radio, and it sponsored Georgia Southern ' s first male Homecoming queen in 1979. WVGS is open to all students and organizations on campus and wel- comes student input. So the next time you turn on your radio, let your radio turn you on, to WVGS, RADIO FOR YOU.

George-Anne Staff Wins 10 Awards The George-Anne is published weekly by the students of CSC. The paper pro- vides the opportunity for students major- ing in all areas to work in a journalistic atmosphere. At the 1979 Georgia Press Association Institute the George- Anne won 10 awards, including two for first place in sports coverage and feature writing and a second place in the general excellence category. The paper also placed second in the categories of news, editorial, and general advertising excellence. Four additional awards, listed below, were won by George-Anne staff mem- bers in individual competition. — Eddie Donato, editor, won second place in the Best News Article Based on Objective Reporting competition. — Trisha Keadle, managing editor, took second place for the Best Feature story. — News Editor Wayne Estes and Mar- garet Deason, a reporter, shared a second place prize in Best Sports Story competi- tion. — Music Notes, a series of columns, won third place for Skip lennings in the category of Best Entertainment Feature. The George- Anne competed with papers published at colleges and univer- sities with fewer than 7,000 students. In individual awards the staff competed with all four-year colleges and universi- ties in Georgia, regardless of size. Reflector Staff Concern Is Deadlines The major concern for staffers is usually that of meeting deadlines. However, achieving this depends on a wide range of persons not on the staff, and most often their coopera- tion is not forthcoming. Cooperation stems from communi- cation, which is the problem the staff hopes to lessen each year until the right formula is derived to permit ideal working conditions. Staffers who remained at the end of the year were: Bill Bricker, Organizations; Mike Ingram, Administration Faculty, Organizations; Cindy Sanders, Sports; Tom Deal, Photographer; Pat Leaphart, Photographer; Tom Patton, Photog- rapher; Tim White, Photographer; Dr. Keith Hickman, Darkroom Technician, Adviser.

It is interested in contributing to the GSC campus as well as the community. The sorority seeks to promote scholarship, leadership, and charac- ter. ADPi lives by her motto — We live for each other. Spring quarter of 1979, ADPi was first in academic ranking among sororities and participated in all intramural activities. ADPi was active in Sigma Chi Derby Day and the annual Greek Week. They had several participants in the Miss GSC contest. Alpha Delta Pi 207 Alpha Kappa Alpha Group ' s Goal Is Service to Mankind An organization is an entity composed of members, who through communica- tion, have a willingness to serve, joined for the achievement of a common goal. With this in mind, 20 coeds, in 1908 at Howard University in Washington, D.C., estab- lished the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.; their goal — service to mankind. The now 71 -year-old dedication was chartered at CSC on May 7, 1977, marking the initial existence of a black sorority on this cam- pus. Thus AKA is not only the world ' s first black sorority, but GSCs as well. While membership in AKA is predominantly black, it is not restricted to blacks. In keeping with the goals of AKA, the Lambda Kappa chapter seeks to provide an incentive for scholarship, cultural aware- ness, and social participation. AKA takes on the challenge of being women and reaps the rewards of personal growth and social awareness. m 208 Alpha Kappa Alpha Alpha Tau Omega Goal Is High Level of Achievement Alpha Tau Omega was founded in 1865, at Virginia Military Institute.

Dr. Lick served almost a year before being inaugurated as the ninth president of Georgia Southern College. Instead of having a separate ceremony for the inauguration, Dr. Lick wanted to combine it with Spring Graduation, saving the college about $15,000. President Lick said he liked GSC very much and considers it to be an outstanding institution. He likes the friendly atmosphere on campus. When asked about his plans for GSC, Dr. Lick replied that there is much more to do than can be done, even if we rush. He wants GSC to continue growing on the basics, such as the worth of all people and serving the needs of the people. Dr. Lick believes GSC can serve the needs of the people of south Georgia through instruction, research, and public services. Some of these needs will be met by the planned nursing program for GSC and expansion of the continuing education program. Dr. Lick wants to further strengthen ties between the college and community. He also wants to improve relations between faculty, staff, and students. President Lick ' s first year was active. He worked to improve con- nections between GSC and other col- leges across the state and for the approval of a nursing program at GSC. 250 President Dr. Austin Commends GSC on Atmosphere for Learning After being at GSC for one year, Dr. Charles Austin, Vice President of Academic Affairs, said CSC had a good atmosphere for learning and he likes working with the student body and faculty here. Dr. Austin places primary emphasis on continuing a high quality of edu- cation at GSC. A good general edu- cation and a comprehensive set of programs should also be offered. Dr. Austin holds a B.S. in Mathe- matics from Xavier University, a M.S. in Health Administration from the University of Colorado, and a PhD. in Social Science from the University of Cincinnati. Cook Becomes First Business Vice-President Mr. Bill Cook became GSC ' s first Vice President for Business and Finance as a result of a decision by the Board of Regents in February. Already serving GSC under the title of Director of Administration and Fiscal Affairs, Cook had been functioning as a Vice Presi- dent without the title or promotion. The responsibilities of the job did not change or lessen, but made his job more definable. ■t I I Vice-Presidents 251 I I 252 Deans 1.

In addition to teaching, Joiner also writes, attends theatre, and plays ten- nis. Riley ' s Writing Funds His Travel Fever Dr. Sam Riley has been a journal- ism professor here at GSC for five years. However, his writing-spon- sored travelling is his hobby. Dr. Riley has traveled to Germany, Italy, and around the South. He tries to finance his travels by writing.

Twelve divisions com- peted for the President ' s Cup in softball, volleyball, and other games. President Lick and his wife felt that some event should be held to bring the college people together. A faculty picnic was planned with the aid of Linda Hook, a recreation instructor who headed the project. Over 1,000 faculty and staff mem- bers and their families participated. Children could win points for their parents ' division in any of 19 picnic games involving everything from egg and marshmallow races to relays. Personnel Office, Computer Ser- vices, and Security won the Presi- dent ' s Cup. Auxiliary Services placed second and Student Affairs placed third. Hotdogs, ice cream, cookies, and popcorn were donated by the com- munity for the event. :ulty Picnic Sometimes footsteps falter and some hesitate, uncertain of purpose and lacking confi dence. Others forge ahead. Every man is the architect of his own fortune. — Appius Claudius Together we are undaunted by failure, pain, unhappiness. Our happiness in this world depends on the affections we are enabled to inspire. — Duchesse de Praslin 275 Each is eager to experience all Widely as we stretch our reverent conceptions, there is ever something beyond. — A. Maclaren, D.D. 277 As we gain confidence, individual paths begin to branch off. And, supported by our time together, each one steps out in his chosen direction to follow his arrow. The staff of the 1979 Reflector wishes to acknowledge those people and organizations who gave special services in complet- ing the book: Bill Bricker for designing the cover and endsh- eet; the George-Anne for pic- tures and copy; the Statesboro Herald for copy; Dr. Keith Hick- man, adviser, for his dedication; and Larry Naylor and Joe Bate- man for their services as Taylor representatives.
