A Slice Of Life 3 lUP In Identity Crisis ... lUP ' s colors, thought to be maroon and slate but often ar- gued to be slate and maroon. ... it turned out that lUP ' s colors were neither maroon and slate nor slate and maroon, but actually crimson and gray ... Press Writer Looks At Problem As the fall semester began, lUP ' s students were told of the university ' s identity crisis; which seemed to be magically solved over the summer with a new logo, change of school col- ors and an attempted nickname change. Many students felt this pro- ject was a waste of time and, more importantly, money; however, the project was in its final stages of approval as the fall semester began; so protests were useless for the most part. The image issue caught the ear, or should it be said the pen , of Gene Collier, a sports writer for The Pitts- burgh Press. On Sept. 3, 1986, Collier ' s column featured his view on the situation. The Oak secured permission to reprint this article from The Pittsburgh Press, and we thank them and hope the reader en- joys Collier ' s view of the fUP identity problem. This probably didn ' t show up on Nightline, but there was a benign crisis of identity this summer at lUP. What ' s I UP? Well, there you go. lUP, Indiana University of Pennsylvania, prefers to be known by its initials, which is entirely its prerogative. At least it thought it preferred that until the identity crisis started. I ' m guessing all direc- tives have been suspended until things really settle down. The cause of the crisis was basically three-fold, thought to be superior to the old-fash- ioned, two-fold crises of the late ' 70s. First, printers and artists were playing fast and loose with lUP ' s school colors, thought to be maroon and slate. Second, the school ' s identi- fying logo, three thick lower- case letters arranged in the right order, was battling other logo splinter groups for space and royalities. Third, there was growing discussion that the school should abandon its nickname, Indians, or Big Indians, be- cause it conjured in the con- sciences of the sensitive a screaming, blood-sucking sav- Above: Is it OK to yell Big Indians, or Indiana, Indiana University of Penn- did they change it?

Collier Continued From Page 4 age with a tomahawk in one hand a severed head of a nice person in the other, or at any rate something that would not be flattering to real Indians or Big Indians. Before any of this threatened to take up too much of any- one ' s time, lUP appointed a committee to help solidify and change, if that ' s what it took, the school ' s image. Colleges are becoming much more sensitive about this, said Reed Agnew of Ag- new, Moyer and Smith Inc., a sales promotion agency. It ' s important in what they call re- cruiting, but is, in effect, mar- keting. They ' re becoming more sensitive to anything that can help them in this area. Agnew, who gets consulted about this stuff all the time, began to help lUP find itself imagewise. In the first place, it turned out that lUP ' s colors were nei- ther maroon or slate nor slate and maroon, but actually crim- son and gray, a little-known fact someone uncovered by reading the words to the alma mater. Of loyality our symbols twain Her colors crimson and gray There are other words too. but there it was, the smoking gun so to speak. We don ' t know how it hap- pened, but as of the late ' 50s, our colors began to be referred to as maroon and slate, said Larry Judge, the lUP sports spokesman. The colors aren ' t really being changed; it ' s more like they ' re being corrected. Beginning immediately then, lUP will answer crimson and gray, to all official inquiries as to its official colors and will conduct all correspondence and market a bunch of sweat- shirts under a new logo. The new logo, worked up by Agnew ' s firm, is a wild depar- ture using upper-case letters. It has more of a collegiate flavor, Agnew said. The oth- er one looked like it could be for a toy company. That taken care of, all that remains is the mildly trouble- some question of the nickname and even more mildly trouble- some rumor that lUP was defi- nitely and inalterably changing its nickname from the Indians to the Flaming Arrows. That is simply not true, even though Agnew, Moyer, Smith Inc. did at one point present a new symbol for the athletic teams that was in fact an arrow with attached flames. Basically, it was only for discussion purposes, said Dr. Ron Thomas, executive direc- tor of university relations and a member of the image commit- tee. The (proposed new) nick- name was just Arrows, but af- ter that, people started discussing different modifiers. There weren ' t too many modi- fiers that go with Arrows. Thomas said Blazing was one, but other than Flaming and Rubbertipped, I can ' t think of any either. Said Judge, It was de cided that we could run into some real trouble with the modifier. It probably will be decided at a meeting next week that lUP will, in this image ma- keover, stop short of changing the nickname. It is, afterall, unlikely that the Cherokee Na- tion is going to single out lUP for protest when the Atlanta Braves still employ a logo that features a yipping savage with no lower teeth who you just know has a glove compartment filled with unpaid parking tick- ets. It is further unlikely that IL ' P ' s women ' s athletic teams, now clumsily nicknamed the Lady Braves, will benefit from a change to something such as the , ' rrowettes. Moreover, in the face of the rumored attack of the Flaming Arrows, I UP experienced an outpouring of support for the old nickname. We had only heard from the people who thought about changing it, Judge said. What we found out was that there was such a feeling and attachment for the original nickname. I personally tested this by asking Sam. who works next to me and a graduated from lUP in the prebenign-identity -crisis days. Sam, I said. How would you feel if I UP changed its name from the Big Indians? I ' d be crushed. he said. Why ' I asked. They wouldn ' t change the name of the Fighting Irish, would they ' I nodded solemnly, and thought about the Indians, and the famous loyal twaining sym- bols, and how it might have all gone down in flaming arrows. Sam taught me that I should never worry about I U P ' s image again. -Gene Collier The Pittsburgh Press (NOTE: lUP ' s nickname re- mained the Indians following the meeting Collier men- tioned.) Ha 1 M n : Ir i 1 j; mi|iiijgnT liimn Colin kictn ... undergraduate enrollment increases to 13,248 in the fail of 1|86. the highest in I U P s hislorv. Two Hundred More Freshman lUP ' s Enrollment Reaches Record lUP ' s slice of life grew a lit- tle larger this year as total graduate and undergraduate enrollment increased to 13,248 in the fall of 1986. the highest in I LP ' s history. Two hundred more freshmen were admitted this year than last year, due to the Learning Assistance Act. but this will change, according to Dr. Fred Dakak, dean of admissions. IL ' P will not have to accept more freshmen in upcoming years, although more students are applying than in past years. More students are interest- ed in ILP than ever before, Dakak said. We will be ad- mitting the same number of students, but our standards will be better. According to a survey ad- ministered to freshmen, this in- terest in lUP can be attributed to five main factors: cost, aca- demic reputation, location, size and available curriculum. An expanded marketing ef- fort has brought these factors to more prospective students than before, according to Da- kak. IL ' P is visiting more schools, gets invited to more college nights, and uses more publicity than it has in past years, he said. But along with this increased interest and increased enroll- ment comes the problem of housing. Because of the unex- pected increase, many fresh- men were not guaranteed on- campus dormitory housing upon receiving their accep- tance to IL ' P and had to look for accomodations off-campus instead. Students who would not be provided with housing were warned in advance when they were accepted, according to Melanie Wardrop, assistant di- rector of on-campus assign- ments for the office of housing and residence life. The students were told up front there would not be enough housing and were put on a waiting list, Wardrop said. These students, most of whom were late admitlants, were given information on off- campus housing and dorms. Some delayed enrollment until January, but the majority went into private housing, according to Wardrop. Some students can be hap- pier in private dorms, she said. It ' s a community atmosphere. Although not all of the stu- dents who had to live off-cam- pus were satisfied, many were grouped with other freshmen who couldn ' t live on campus. lUP ' s enrollment trends will probably continue to increase in the future as state schools around the country find their enrollment increasing for the same reasons as IL ' P, Dakak said. .And because of students who graduate or more off-cam- pus, enough on-campus hous- ing should be available to in- coming freshmen in future years, accordind to Wardrop. -Dana Smith Colin Klein J Cynthia Carmickle Top: lUP ' s football crowds increased, change.

Thirteen thousand people living, learn- ing and growing together. In the four (sometimes five) years we spend at IL ' P, we grow from runn -nosed high school kids into young adults with a better understanding of the world we live in. We come from all over Pennsylvania. We come from Philadelphia or Pittsburgh or from any of the hundreds of hamlets that dot the map of the Commonwealth. From 39 dif- ferent states and numerous countries, we converge on Indiana. So who is the typical ILP student? That ' s hard to say. It might be the study hound who spends night and day pre- paring to meet the grueling tor- tures of academia head-on. Or it might be the student- athlete who spends more time at the Memorial Field House than Stapleton Library — but wouldn ' t have it anv other wav. T get bored when we don ' t have practice, says junior Wendy Eckhard, a member of I LP ' s Women ' s tennis team. My grades are usually higher during the season since I bud- get my time better, she adds. .Also typical of the students at IL ' P is the fraternity brother or sorority sister who enjoy a special family closeness that is inevitably missed w hen a stu- dent leaves their real family for the first time. Still, though, we have not found the truK stereotypical ILP student. Maybe its the pretty girl that works the cash register at Roy Rogers. Thousands of students at IL ' P rely heavily on part- time jobs to cover the day-to- day costs of going to college. To many, the challenge is not hou much can be learned from each credit hour, but whether or not they can afford to pay for it! Maybe the typical ILP stu- dent is the ROTC member who rolls in mud by day. studies by night, and jumps from air- planes on the weekend! Or is it the continuing edu- cation student who works a full time job during the day and sacrifices time with their fam- ily to attend class at night? Or the foreign student who leaves their homeland, friends and culture behind to come to I UP to study. Unlike most lUP students, the foreign stu- dents do not enjoy the plea- sures of driving home for a weekend of mom ' s cooking. As we can see, it isn ' t easy to develop one stereotype that encompasses the entire ILP community. That, I think, is what makes lUP so attra ctive to its stu- dents. I U P lets each of us be an individual — searching for who we want to be while not forget- ting who we already are. Se- mester after semester, each of us learns and grown with our classmates, roommates, in- structors and friends. In recent years, lUP has gained a reputation as a party school where kids drink more than study and sacrifice good grades for a good time. I think what people fail to realize, though, is that for every stu- dent they see rela.xing at the bars on the weekends, there are two or three at home studying their eyes out for an exam Monday. lUP ' s personality — it ' s char- acter — is not determined by a handful of party animals. Every student, the athlete, the Greek, the art major, contrib- utes to the University ' s overall image. No two IL ' P students are e.xactly alike. In fact, if you say, Who is a stereotypical IL ' P student? , you are bound to hear thirteen thousand DIF- FERENT answers! -Billy Diskin ... gone 10 the Rec Center in the HUB to relax . . .

After being at lUP for even the shortest amount of time, you ' ve probably experienced one or more of these items. Those of us here know the campus as well as we know the back of our hands. It ' s small, compared to some, but on those days when it was -30 °F and you had to get to Stright from Zink in fifteen minutes- boy, it certainly seemed huge! We ' ve walked those dirt side- walks thousands of times. Or maybe you prefer to walk through the buildings to avoid that blistering wind for just one minute. A few buildings bring about bad thoughts in some students. It may be Accounts Receivable in the Annex where you went to check on your refund or your loan. Heating problems, or the lack of heat, also brings about unrest in some of us. Certain areas of Leonard, McElhaney, and, need we men- tion, the dorms, are cold enough to make you wear your coat during class or hot enough to make you shed clothing. Maybe you dreaded the down- stairs of the library because it meant you had a paper or a project due soon. Or maybe it was the Blue Room for regis- tration that you feared. The computer centers, either loca- tion, have the ability to strike terror into the hearts of many students. What about the good places? Where are they? Well, you have have enjoyed going to Fisher, because it may have meant a concert or a comedy show. Maybe you enjoyed the Theater-by-the-Grove plays in Waller. A quick bite at Sheetz or Roy Rogers could do won- ders for your mood, not to mention your waistline! Maybe a gym class in Zink released some of your pressure. Any- place where your friends gath- ered certainly made the top 10 favorite places. Buildings come alive with people. If a campus had no people, would it truly be a cam- pus, or would it just be a place? -Barbara Conwy A Slice Of Lire 13 Top: The new steam pipes reflect the early morning sun.

The on-campus im- provements and renovations, along with the off-campus mini-mails have made life easi- er for everyone at lUP and the surrounding Indiana area. Probably the most notice- able addition is the mini-mall located near the HUB. The Uni-Mart is a grocery conven- ience store that caters to late- night snackers and cafeteria refugees. They carry every- thing from magazines to meat- ball sandwiches. They are eqipped with a microwave for those who just can ' t wait or who are on the run. Brody ' s — on Campus is also located in the mini-mall. Man- ager Lisa Slicker says that the location of the store is a great advantage. The store is consid- ering expanding their mer- chandise to include men ' s clothing, as they started out carrying only women ' s items. Miss Slicker is very optimistic that the completion of other stores in the Mall, as well as the newly renovated parking will boost business in the near future. Also located in the mini- mall is The Midnight Sun, a tanning and beauty salon. The shop offers manicures as well as tanning booths for the ap- pearance-conscious student. For those interested in fun and games, Aladdin ' s Castle offers video entertainment in the form of Pac-man and other video pals. As of the fall of 1986, the mini-mall is uncompleted, and awaiting the addition of a Wendy ' s as well as various oth- er specialized shops. The Grant Street Mini-Mall is also great for lUP students. Even first-semester freshmen are by now are familiar with Domino ' s located in the Mall. The Country ' s Best Yogurt (TCBY) carries several frozen yogurt concoctions, including shakes and fruit smoothies. On campus, the university is involved in three major pro- jects. Construction started in July 1986 for a co-generation plant. The plant will produce electricity and heat for various University buildings, as well as steam for the present heating system and air conditioning. The present steam distribution system is being up-graded throughout the campus, espe- cially in the North Quad. The new system will be better insu- lated and more efficient. A third project on campus is the construction of a pedestri- an mall near the HUB. The primary result will be expand- ed parking near the HUB and removal of traffic in front of Pratt Hall and the HUB. The university is also en- gaged in approximately 25 oth- er renovation and improve- ment projects, ranging from asbestos removal to roof repairs. Cycads, in the Greenery, be- tween Indiana and Homer City, is new to the over-21 crowd. Although somewhat more than the average student can afford, the nightclub offers an unusual atmosphere. lUP Sohpmore transfer Mike Patti says it ' s a classy place. Indiana now has more to of- fer, both to the campus and community, in the form of shopping and dining and dancing. -Veronica Crowe Probably the most noticeable addition is the mini-mall located near the HUB. ■ TCBV 1 i 9v H I The Countr ' s Best Yogurt car- ries several fro en vocurl cvincoc- Thcsc new apartments near cam- pus will be ci n enieni ■ • ' ' ' residents. ■ ' V Bill Muhlack Anything that has something to do with the alumni of lUP ... is done by the alumni affairs office. ine aiumnr office is very famil- iar with setting up parties since they do it twice a year for home- coming weekend and alumni weekend.

Douglas Macek Homecoming Is Just Part Of It Friend Raising Is The Key I UP, our home for four years — but will you ever come back after you graduate or will you just try to forget I UP? Will you become an important part of lUP ' s future or will you abandon your alma mater? Those who do come back and even those who wash their hands of lUP are the alumni. The coordinators of the alumni functions work in the Alumni Affairs Office, which is located in Sutton Hall. There are four people who work in the office, Mr. Richard T. Wolfe, director; Mrs. Paula McGuire, administrative assis- tant; Mrs. Debra Lezanic, Sec- retary and Gail Patterson, re- cords manager. We are four people doing the work of eight, Wolfe said. We ' re the orphans up here, Mrs. McGuire said. And we are expected to do it all. And that is what they do. Anything that has something to do with the alumni of lUP, those who graduated from I UP from 1920 ' s to the 1980 ' s, is done by alumni affairs office. The biggest job which they do is keeping the files of the alumni current. The records manager is on the phone con- stantly trying to locate lost alumni, Wolfe said. We used to count on the post office for address changes, Mrs. McGuire add- ed. But a few times our litera- ture would come back with DECEASED printed on it. Af- ter this happened we reported them deceased to our alumni. One of the so called deceased people called in to tell us, ' I ' m very much alive. ' They have 60,000 alumni on file. These people are located all over the United States. We have alumni chapters all over Pennsylvania and other states, Mrs. McGuire said. We keep in close contact with them. Mrs. McGuire just sent out a 60-page booklet compiled by the office which contains sug- gested bylaws, a constitution and ideas for events and parties. The alumni office is very fa- miliar with setting up parties since they do it twice a year for homecoming weekend and alumni weekend. They have a booth at the homecoming carnival and they also plan a reunion for all re- turning alumni. The alumni of- fice also chooses three academ- ic departments to honor a graduate of their department during Homecoming Week- end. These three Alumni Am- bassadors speak in the classes in their department. The ambassadors are cho- sen by a committee from their department on the basis of their aspired excellence in their careers, Mrs. McGuire said. I think the students who are here benefit a lot from the ad- vice the ambassadors can give them about the careers avail- able in the field, she added. The alumni weekend which takes place in June every yeai invites the alumni on a five year spand. For example, in June of 1987 anyone who grad- uated in a 7 or a 2 will be invit- ed. During this weekend a din- ner dance is held and seminars are given on such current top- ics as gourmet cooking, mixol- ogy and tax reforms. There are many other events which the alumni affairs office plans for the alumni. One of the most exciting things is the travel program. This year we ' re planning trips to the Bahamas and Las Vegas, Mrs. McGuire said. I ' m sure you think this sounds like a lot of fun for the alumni as well as the people who work at alumni affairs. It is a lot of fun but also a lot of work. Everything we do is for the alumni and the future alumni, Mrs McGuire said. We are best at ' friend raising ' , she added with a smile. -Lesley Holton _c r Siudcnl workers check the alum- ni records.

No, the above list is not HBO ' s line-up for the month — it ' s a list of the many per- formers that came to lUP dur- ing the Fall 1986 and Spring 1987 semesters. This list was just a sampling of the many activities available to lUP students. Students could also attend speeches, go to plays, dance at Steady Mick ' s or work-out at little to no cost (except for their activity fee) on the I UP campus. One activity that few stu- dents miss during their four years at lUP was attending an on-campus movie. Recent, as well as classic, movies were sponsored by the Activities Board and other organizations every week. Some of this year ' s flicks included: Back to the Fu- ture, Top Gun, The Godfather and Gone With the Wind. The many activities avail- able at I UP make the campus more than just an academic in- stitution. If the student makes the most of these opportunities he or she will leave lUP with much more than knowledge of a major but a broader knowl- edge of the world; ACTIVITIES EDITOR BECKY LIGHT Activities 19 HOMECOMING 1986-87 A Time For Memories From the cheers at the game, to the welcome smiles and hugs of ex-roommates and the discussion of remember whens at the bars uptown to an umbrella-filled Philadelphia Street at the parade and the goodbyes and tears to separat- ing friends, this Homecoming was as memorable as ever. The Homecoming carnival started things off on Friday and lasted through Saturday. lUP organizations sold food, photos, buttons, clothes and other goodies under the tents beside Sutton Hall. On Saturday the floats made by the sororities and fraterni- ties along with bands, shriners and other Indiana County or- ganizations paraded down Philadelphia Street as observ- ers stood under umbrellas cheering for their friends on the floats and applauding the band ' s music. ' m I. i I ' m so thrilled and honored. Alpha Gamma Delta and Lambda Chi Alpha won first place with their Roadrunner and Coyote float in the car- toon-theme float competition. They won $300 from the first place sponsors. Country Club Estates and Hogan Landscaping. Other winners for this Homecoming weekend were Tina Kennedy from Douglass- ville and Stephen Kraus from Glenshaw, lUP ' s 1986-87 homecoming king and queen. They were announced at the football game on Saturday when lUP beat Edinboro 28- 10. The king and queen along with the court brightened up the rainy day with their smiles. Em so thrilled and honored, Kennedy said of her new title. lUP ' s branch campuses were also represented by their own kings and queens. Kittaning ' s were Denette Beitko from Tar- tumen and David Copeland and Kittanning. Jeannie Por- ada and Don Airgood both from Punxutawney won at their campus. Even though Homecoming weekend was filled with games, contests and competitions they won ' t be the things that will be remembered most about this weekend. The memories of staying up all night to finish the float, hosting old friends at your apartment for the weekend and squeezing through the crowds at the bars will be the memo- ries of Homecoming 1986-87. One recent graduate summed up her weekend, I re- lived old memories and made new ones. 1 guess that ' s what Homecoming is all about. A freshman said, My first Homecoming was great.

Casavant, the lUP Marching Band provided a wide variety of entertaining shows during its 1986 season. Drum Majors Dan Ebling, Jim Jolly and Brad Genevro led the band in a total of five different shows which consisted of songs such as Tanquero, the theme from the Jetsons, Spies in the Night, Why Not, Summer Sunrise and Somewhere, the love theme form Westside Story and this year ' s biggest crowd pleas- er. Also included in the show was Amazing Grace, the band ' s traditional closer in post-game shows. The shows were performed at football games, the Home- coming Parade, as well as festi- vals throughout Pennsylvania and New Jersey. At their last show the band was honored t o have Vincent De Martin, a re- nowned trumpet soloist per- form with them in the number Fire Dance. The shows allowed the high quality of the band ' s instru- mental and marching abilities to be seen as well as showing off some of the individual abili- ties of its members in solos. Mike McAfee and Jenny Good had trumpet and French horn solos respectively in Some- where. Why Not gave Terrisa Kelly and Dave Wy- gonik opportunity to demon- strate their talents on the French horn and trumpet. Carl Miller played trumpet with Paula Townsend on baritone during Tanquero. Dr. Casavant designed the drills the band executed. Many of these drills included forma- tions in which the band would play to the back of the stadium, a move which allowed the spec- tators sitting in the back to see the formations instead of the backs of the members. The band is a close knit group often referred to as Ca- savant ' s little family. Junior Jim Zaborowski remembers the 1986 season as being a long one. The fall rains turned the practice field into a veritable mud puddle and the band had to contend with slip- ping and sliding through the drills. According to Zabor- owski, Each show had its moments. In view of next year ' s band and how graduation ' 87 will af- fect it, the opinion is We ' re losing quality, not quantity. -Becky Light Top: The majorettes added visual ef- fects to the shows.

Muft,ji« THEATER-BY-THE-GROVE: A Slice Of Entertainment In October, Theater-By- The-Grove presented The Birthday Party. a funny but somewhat confusing play which still proved enjoyable to the audience. The Birthday Party is just that: a party thrown for Stan- ley, played by Keith Edwards. But this is no ordinary birthday party. In fact, it ' s not even Stanley ' s birthday. The plot focuses on two men who mysteriously enter into Stanley ' s seemingly peaceful life as a permanent boarder at the residence of Petey and Meg, played by Bill Martinak and Avril Barwick. The identi- ty of the two men is never clearly established, but they appear to be part of a mob or- ganization. Goldberg, the lead- er, played by Kevin Renshaw, and his sidekick McCann (Da- vid Surtasky) have come to this seaside town in England to punish Petey for some past crime in the organization. They use the excuse of the birthday party to torture him in hopes of ultimately reverting him back to one ot them. The plot is as confusing as it sounds, but the play is typical of its author Harold Pinter. He focuses all of the action in one setting, the living room, con- centrating mainly on the char- acters of the house and on out- side force, Goldberg and McCann, who disrupt their lives. The stunning performances from every cast member dis- play the power of Pinter ' s writ- ing and kept the audience hyp- notized even when the plot seemed hard to follow. Avril Barwick was perfect as the de- lightfully nervous Meg, the concerned motherly type who seemed like she possessed a much more complicated per- sonality than she showed the world. Her vivaciousness was the exact opposite of her calm, level-headed husband. Ren- shaw and Surtasky also acted superbly, playing off of each other brilliantly while giving the audience glimpses of their hidden inner feelings. Their fast-paced conversations de- manded impeccable timing which was never missed. Although a Pinter play might be more suitable for a more experienced audience, even the average theater-goer was overwhelmed by the capti- vating performances of the cast. Raymonde has a flea in her ear. She thinks her husband, Vic- tor Emmanuel Chandebise is having an affair. So she and her best friend Lucienne set up a plot to catch him. Lucienne writes a letter to Victor, setting a trap for him to meet her at the Hotel Coq d ' Or. Victor mistakes the letter for someone else, and sends Romain Tour- nel in his place. Romain finds Raymonde at the hotel and thinks she wants to have an af- fair with him. In the meantime, Lucien- nes ' s Spanish husband, Carlos, thinks his wife is really having the affair because he knows that she really wrote the letter. This action and much more comes to a roaring climax at the hotel where it seems every cast member is running in and out of every room with every other cast member. Things get even further complicated, when Victor ' s twin appears as the the hotel busboy. A Flea In Her Ear, by Georges Feydeau, was per- formed by Theater-By-The- Grove in November. This bed- room comedy takes place in Paris in the early 1900s. The Chandebises, played by Nat- alie Wolf and Matt Giehl. are the center around which the rest of the comedy revolves. It is a play full of misunderstand- ings, mistaken identities, and split-second timings. These factors would seem to make the play a difficult one to per- form, but the cast does it perfectly. Edward Simpson ' s skillful directing enables the audience to understand and laugh through what could be a very complicated plot. - Dana Smith ( bnslupher I t-e Previous page: Top left Barwick.

The cast makes Simpson ' s job easy, as they carry out each scene with the utmost profes- sionalism. It is difficult to sin- gle out any one performance since every cast member was a vital part of the plot. Every performer had to be exception- al due to the liming involved and the nature of the dialogue and action. Special attention, however, must go to Matt Giehl. He not only played Chancbise. but he appeared at the hotel Coq d Or as Poche. Giehl ' s two characters played in scenes so close to each other that it seemed impossible for him to have time to change costumes, let alone shift to a totally different personality. A Flea in Her Ear was an entertaining and hilarious way to spend an evening. The laughter in the theater didn ' t stop during the play and proba- bl continued even aftcruards with thoughts of this funoush funny comedy. A tragedy in the form of a musical comedy. Although what most of us would consider comedv was not found fre- quently in theater-B -The Grove ' s production of Good from February 26-28 and March 3-7, there were some humorous moments. But the humor was in a very tragic sense, as the audience watched the life of John Hadler, played by Mathew Giehl, being taken over b) the Nazi part in Hi- tler ' s Germany. The show was based on Hai- der ' s thoughts and feelings as he gradualK became involved in the Nazi regime. We wit- nessed the demise of his mar- riage to Helen, convincingK portrayed by Lisa Campbell, and an affair with a young stu- dent named Anne, played b Natalie Wolf. These and other cast members gave great per- formances, including an espe- cially comedic performance by Hitler, played by Andrew Manuel. One of the interesting as- pects of the pla was the use of music of offset Haider ' s thoughts. When his marriage was failing and when he was having the affair, a backup band and a vocalist broke into a song which would amplify his feelings. But as Haider began to slip further away, there was one force that tried to bring him back to reality, his friend Mau- rice, portrayed by Ian Gal- lanar. As soon as Haider began to drift into his thoughts and the music, Maurice was always there to try to bring him out of it. Unfortunately, Maurice was a Jew and their strong friend- ship dwindled into the tyranny of the Nazis. Overall, the play seemed to move at a slower pace than the other TBTG performances this year, but the slow, calculated movement of the show seemed appropriate for the subject matter. The show provided an interesting character study and an opportunity to learn more about about Nazi Germans — not just what it did physicalK to others, but the mental ef- fects it had on those who were drawn b its power into the regime. If a night of simple, fun en- tertainment was what you needed to prepare for the last grueling weeks of the semester, Theater-By-The-Grove ' s Dames At Sea might have been just the ticket you were looking for. Dames offered no hidden meanings, no complex charac- terizations and no underlying morals. But it was just this lack of depth which makes the mu- sical so enjoyable. According to director Bar- bara Blackledge, the show was meant to be a playful parody of those lavish 1930 ' s musicals with swarms of chorus girls, glittering sets and costumes and glamorous stars. Indeed the plot resembled those of the majority of this genre of musi- cal: a small-town girl with big dreams goes to Broadway for her big break, falls in love, and eventually gets her chance at stardom. But these inten- tionally simple plots, designed to help alleviate the worries of the depression era, left room for the other ingredients of the show to shine through. The show ' s plot centers around the making of a musi- cal entitled, appropriately Photos by Carl Fakin, Zanne and Douglas Macek enough, Dames at Sea . Hen- nesey, the director of this fi- nancially troubled show, played by John Hindman, tries to keep the show together by appeasing its star, Mona Kent, played by Lisa A. Hulriman. Hurliman was terrifically arro- gant as this pompous and pam- pered star, and Hindman. whose lines were mostly Imiil- ed to the constant nagging and complaining about the state of his show, typified the image of the frazzled director with the ever-present cigar. Ruby, portrayed by Robin Biega, is a naive, innocent girl who is virtually ignored by ev- eryone but the smug but wise Joan, played by Natalie Wolf. Joan has been around the the- ater business for years, and is able to recognize real talent such as Ruby ' s while holding contempt for aging, mediocre stars such as Mona. Through Joan ' s help, Ruby gets a chorus part in the show. The plot carries on in a pre- dictable manner as a sailor and aspiring composer named Dick wanders into Ruby ' s life. They i rvMi 7 fall in love immediately and sing one of Dick ' s composi- tions, titled It ' s You. Dick, boyishly portrayed by Michael John Marra, is practically as naive as Ruby, and is overcome by the interest of Mona Kent when she wants to include one of his songs in her show. Ruby ' s jealousy of Mona ' s attention to Dick carries on through much of the show, while more optimistic numbers take place such as Choo-Choo Honeymoon, performed by Joan and another sailor named Lucky, played by Walt McCready. This was one of the most enjoyable numbers as is any scene in which McCready is involved. His facial expres- sions, comic flair and great dancing were a definite stand- out in the show, and he played them to the hilt in the flash- back number Singapore Sue. Meanwhile, Hennesey is having problems of his own His theater is about to be turned into a roller rink on the opening night of the show. Dick saves the day as he volun- teers to save the show and then must convince the Captain, played by Brian Pedaci, to let the cast perform the show in his ship. Kent of course, can ' t limit herself to her renewed relation- ship with the captain, and when Ruby sees Mona kissing Dick, she breaks into Raining in My Heart, a love song complimented by beautiful choreography and effective lighting. Everything ends up in Ru- by ' s favor after Joan plots the downfall of Mona Kent after the opening number and Ruby must take her place. Biega was charming as the optimistic star-to-be who emerges in full bloom when she lakes Mona ' s place in a glitter-filled produc- tion number called Star Tar. Every aspect of Dames at Sea was enjoyable — the cast was equally and expertly adept as singers, dancers and actors, and the choreography is simple but effective. - Dana Smith This page Top Rub gets her chance in ihc spoilight Bottom IcftlYic casl of Dames Bottom center: Ruby and Dick find love.

The 5 1 -member cast was un- der the direction of Dr. Sarah Mantel, of the lUP music de- partment, and the orchestra and musical director was Jo- anne Luchsinger. I found the cast very easy to work with and enthusiastic, Mantel said about her first ma- jor production since coming up to I UP last year. They were willing to do the tasks they were called upon for. In this type of production, the cast is required to help with setting, lighting and moving things. They were all very cooperative. The production ' s lead role of Maria was played by Diane Steiner, a music education ma- jor, and her suitor. Captain Georg von Trapp, was por- trayed b David Wargo, a crimmology major. in the other lead roles, Beth Ann Hinkle played Mother Abess, who originally sends Maria to the von Trapp home, and Christopher Sciullo por- trayed Max Delweiller, a tal- ent scout who helps discover the von Trapp Family Singers. An unusual aspect of the production is only the eldest child Liesel, played by Dana Scott, a music major with a voice concentration, is fro- mlUP. The other children are children from the Indiana area. According to Mantel, work- ing with the children vsas a pos- itive experience for herself, Luchsinger and the cast. Their enthusiasm added a lot to the quality of the produc- tion, Mantel said. There weren ' t any problems. The children all learned their lines and music of the rest of the cast. The production also used a professonal set, borrowed from Knoxville Opera, and the cos- tumes were provided b Krause Costume Co. in Cleve- land. The musical ' s Benedic- tine Order nuns received direc- tion from Sister Susan Fazzini of the lUP Newman Center, a member of the Order. The Sound of .Music is based on the true story of Ma- ria and Georg von Trapp, who escaped from Nazi-occupied Austria in 1938. The family sought assylum in the United States and toured the country as the Trapp Family Singers. They now own a lodge in Stowe, Vt., and conduct music camps on a regular basis. The Sound of Music is one of the longest-running shows on Broadway and gained a world-wide audience with the movie version starring Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer. The production was spon- sored by the Student Coopera- tive Association. -Barbra Smergalski IXiufij. ljcci Duuji J- Mj ' .ck SPRING BREAK: Summer Fun In Winter Kathy and her four room- mates sit laughing and talking in the Pittsburgh Airport at 7 a.m. on March 14. 1 hope I remembered m number 22 for my nose.

Coconut odors fill the air. Bodies lie inches apart on blankets and towels. Volleyballs and frisbees 11% through the air. Convertibles, T-roofs and pick-ups move at a steady speed of 25 mph. They spend their days on the beach enjoying the water, sun and sand. But they can also do man activities uhile on their Spring Break. Scuba diving, water skiing, fishing and boat- ing are offered to Kathy if she gets bored with sun bathing. Long walks and men matching are also options. Wednesday the watch John Caffertv. He is featured as the week ' s con- cert on the beach. Thursday, Kath cheers one of her room- mates on in the best legs on the beach contest. Contests are not only held during the day. Students can be winners every night in any thing from wet T-shirts to beer guzzling. Kathy and her friends pay 5-10 dollars cover charges to dance and drink in the bars. They receive free mugs, T-shirts and drinks in many of them. Kathy chose to go to Dayto- na Beach because of the price and by suggestions of friends. For more money they could have spent Spring Break in Bermuda, the Bahamas or Cancun. Ft. Lauderdale, an- other popular Florida spot, is on the decrease as a Spring Break spot, according to travel agents. The city police are not hap- p with all the problems the students cause. They don ' t ca- ter to the students as much as Davtona does. one agent told Kathy. Daytona isn ' t more coopera- tive just for the students. .Ac- cording to Daytona Chamber of Commerce officials, their most revenue is earned during the Spring Break season. No matter what spot ILP students chose for their Spring Break, they come back tan, well-rested and ready for class- es just like Kathy and her roommates. (.Although many claim that they need a break to rest up from Spring Break. Isn ' t that what classes are for?) I can ' t believe I didn ' t even look at my books while I was gone.

Angela Darrell Strive for your goals, re- gardless of any obstacles that might stand in your way. Don ' t stop until you reach the top. That advice comes from Miss Black lUP 1987 Angela Darrell. Darrell, a senior medi- cal sociology major, was cho- sen Miss Black lUP 1987 April 26 from among six contestants. The other contestants in- cluded Tonji Good, Valerie Moore, Leslie Day, Theresa Waters and Laura Canty. Canty, first runner-up, re- ceived a standing ovation for her reading of the poem Mother to God and for sing- ing Because He Lives. Good, second runner-up, performed a song acapello af- ter starting her saxophone solo with an accompaniment then deciding she did not need it. She was named most talented performer by the judges and Miss Congeniality by the other contestants. But it was Darrell, wearing a copper-colored tea-length gown, who was the big winner. The crowd cheered as she told what Black History Month meant to her during the con- test ' s question answer section. I stood there and thought for a second, Darrell said. I basically used my opinion of what I thought Black History Month meant to me. I was sat- isfied with my answer, and the crowds response reinforced my confidence. Darrell ' s response to the question was: Black History Month means that blacks should look back to their achievements and defeats in the past and use them as a step- ping stone to make their race better. Darrell ' s duties as Miss Black lUP include developing a community project. I hope to try to unify the black popu- lation of lUP as well as instill- ing the attitude in blacks that it ' s all right for blacks and whites to get along, to work to- gether. I want to get rid of some of the prejudices among each other. The contest, which featured the contestants dancing to Top: The talent portion of the contest was important in the Hnal descision.

Alyce Grimm, a 2 1 -year-old senior music education major from Meyersdale was the one to become Miss lUP 1987 in front of a crowded Fisher Auditorium. I feel wonderful, Grimm said moments after the gradua- tion pageant. She performed the Barbra Streisand hit Superman and won over the judges as well as the audience. She received a $350 scholar- ship, over $600 in cash and more than $500 in gifts. She advances to the Miss Pennsyl- vania pageant in June.

Jacqueline Seifried received a special judges ' award as the most talented non-finalist. She performed a dance and gym- nastics routine to Everybody Dance. Seifried was also voted Miss Congeniality by the other contestants. Jennifer Bradley, Miss lUP 1986, performed a song and dance routines throughout the pageant. First she sang Sum- mer Nights with Rob Pennywell. Accompanied by dancers Matt Ellis and Dan Woodring she sang Hey Big Spender. She also sang Mammy, the song she per- formed to win in last year ' s pageant. Bradley choreographed most of the dance routines for this year ' s pageant including Ease on Down the Road, the group ' s opening number and Dreamgirls, the group ' s clos- ing number. Other performers included Mr. lUP Walter McCready and Miss Slippery Rock Alli- son Brunton. The talent portion, account- ing for 50 perent of the total points, featured vocal, dance, twirling and musical perfor- mances.

At the 1987 Mr. lUP Pag- eant, of course. It was held in Fisher Auditorium on Novem- ber 1 in front of a cheering crowd. Mr. lUP 1986, Jeff Brooks, hosted the Alpha Gamma Del- ta sponsored event. All pro- ceeds went to juvenile diabetes and the Founders Memorial Foundation. Walter McCready was cho- sen Mr. iUP 1987 after four separate competitions and spe- cial performances by Jeff Brooks, Concert Dance and the band. Nothing Personal. McCready, sponsored by Phi Delta Theta, is an Accoun- ting Pre-law major. He also captured the spirit award for collecting the most money in the Oak Grove spirit cans, Mr. Congeniality award which is voted on by the contestants, and the talent award and the formal wear award. I think the spirit award meant the most to me, McCready said. Knowing that my friends, my fraternity brothers and others on the campus supported me is the best feeling. The first runner up was Derek Lassiter, who was spon- sored by Delta Gamma. The swimwear award went to Al- pha Sigma Tau ' s Rick Salvador. The swimwear competition featured the 1 1 contestants in their Jams as they tossed volleyballs and footballs around on the hypothetical beach. From the beach the contes- tants started showing what they could do in the talent por- tion of the program. Jim Bankes, sponsored by Kappa Sigma and Sigma Kap- pa sang an Alice Cooper song. Don Blick, sponsored by sec- ond floor Mack, danced to the song Breakdance in a self- choreographed arrangement featuring moon-walking and breakdancing. Leslie Britt, sponsored by Gordon Hall, sang Neil Seda- ka ' s Breaking Up Is Hard To Do . The women in the audience went wild when Rick Salvador ended his dance to Touch Me with a jump toe-touch split. Jim Gardill, sponsored by Lambda Chi Alpha, sang Memory from the broadway musical, Cats . Derek Lassiter sang Late- ly by Stevie Wonder. The audience jumped to their feet at the close of Walter McCready ' s song and dance routine to One Night Only from the musical Dream Girls . Rick Boorman, sponsored by Sigma Chi Alpha, was dressed in army fatigues as he per- formed a military drill. The Silent Saber. Ken Fries, sponsored by Al- pha Phi Omega, danced to Nasty in a self-choreo- graphed routine. Mike Sofelkanik, sponsored by Phi Mu and the Tri-Halls staff, played the drums to Jungle Love by the Steve Miller Band. Finally, Allen Fox, spon- sored by Alpha Tau Omega sang and played the harmonica to Billy Joel ' s Piano Man. A spokesman from Ameri- can Tuxedo hosted the formal wear competition while contes- tants modeled tuxedos. 1 think I ' ll gain a lot per- sonally from becoming Mr. IUP, McCready said. I ' ve already gained respect for my peers. The help which my friends, especially my fraterni- ty, gave me, not to mention their support, was amazing. As the night came to a close and Mr. IUP 1986, Jeff Brooks, turned his reign over to Walter McCready, the female population of IUP settled down realizing it will be anoth- er year until they can see the men of IUP on stage flexing muscles and wiggling their bods . -Lesley Hoi ton Christopher Lee Activities 37 AIRBAND CONTEST: lUP ' s Renditions Of The Stars It was a music lover ' s dream. One by one, the Beastie Boys, Metallica, the Cure. AC DC. Peter Cetera and Amy Grant. Kenny Rogers and the Rolling Stones took the stage at Fisher Auditorium on February 14 to offer renditions of some of their best music. They were not the real groups; that would be too much to ask for. But it was the next best thing as lUP students participated in the annual Air Band contest, sponsored by I LP ' s .Activities Board. Nine groups performed in the contest, vying for prize money (one-half of the gate in- take, split 50-30-20 among the top three groups), and the op- portunity to compete in the Rock-.A.like contest, proceeds of which will go to benefit Stu- dents Against Multiple Sclero- sis (S.A.MS). The groups were judged on the basis of original- ity, appearance, and lip-sync. Rating the groups were Scott Wolfman, a graduate as- sistant for Major Events and Organizations, .Alison Hand, a graduate assistant for Pro- gramming .Activities and Or- ganization, and Marilyn Hea- ly, campus chairperson for SAMS. When the votes of the three were tallied and the dust had cleared, three bands stood above the rest in their abilities in lip-sync. The third-place performance was given by Greg Fadness, .Mark Frampton, .Mark Spik and Doug Adamson for their air-guitaring. air-drumming and lip-syncing to the heavy metal band Metallica ' s song Battery. ■■ With their long hair and blue jeans, the quartet ef- fectivel) captured the image of Metallica along with third place. For Those About to Rock (We Salute You) by AC DC. as performed by Jeff Carter, Rob Clark, Steve Mauroni and Jim Ross pulled off the second- place finish. Strobe lights, imi- tations of Angus Young ' s school-boy prance and Brian Johnson ' s laid-back dress and trademark hat added the depth of realism to the show. Capturing the top spot was One Hit to the Body by the Rolling Stones. Kevin White, Gary Davis, Jim Burcik, Jim Novosel and Don Miller stepped in for the real Stones, doing an excellent job of im- personating them. Accuracy on details, from Mick Jagger ' s studied swagger to the ciga- rette dangling from Keith Richards ' mouth, lent authen- ticity to the show, giving the quintet a near-carbon copy replication and the chance to be the SAMS Rock Alike contest. -Lisa DePetro Carl Eakm Left: Conteslants relax before their performance.

Performed by the touring company, Aiken Productions, it told the story of Amahl, a crippled shepherd boy (Scott Potasnik). and his widowed mother (Carol Madalm). The two are facing hunger and cold in their empty house as the sto- ry begins. Three kings on their way to Bethlehem stop at Amahl ' s house to ask to be taken in for the night. Astonished with the wealth of the kings. AmahTs mother realizes the gifts are for a newborn child and she be- comes envious. She cannot un- derstand why some of the gifts A Christmas Special The king tells the story of the birth of Christ. are not for her poor and sickly child. While everyone is asleep, Amahl ' s mother attempts to steal some of the kings gold. The kings forgive her and try to explain to her who the new- born child is. Touched by their words Amahl ' s mother gives back the gold and wishes she could add a gift of her own. The highpoint of the musical was when Amahl hands his wooden crutch, his most im- portant possession, to the kings as his gift to the child. Amaz- ingly he is cured of his lame- ness and joins the kings in trav- eling to Bethlehem to see the Christ Child. The audience of mostly chil- dren enjoyed the songs which Amahl sang in a stronger voice than expected in a boy his size. This was one of the events which the Indiana Arts Coun- cil has given the lUP campus in the past 1 1 years. -Lesley Hoi ton 41 THE BLOCK PARTY . . . An lUP Tradition It hits Indiana every Spring, usually around the last week in April. The native residents of Indiana close their doors, for- bid their children to go outside and pray for it to be over quickly, while lUP students, alumni and friends welcome it with open arms, is this some wild phenomenon of nature? Well it swild but many people say it is not natural. It is the annual Regency Block Party. Held at the Regency Apart- ment Complex, the Block Par- ty is a time of letting go and just having fun- sort of a last fling before the grind of last minute projects and finals sets in. It ' s a lime for forgetting all about the Organic Chemistry tests that have been making your life miserable, not to men- tion the Econ. professor who believes the world revolves around Econ 101. It ' s a time for getting wild with your friends before gradu- ation and you go your separate ways to conquer the real world. Unfortunately, some people in recent years have begun to look upon the Block Party as more of a nuisance than the upbeat social event that it is. The State Police have become regulars at the party, but their presence does nothing to daunt the fun-loving students in their pursuit of good times. Alumni come from Pittsburgh, Wash- ington and other cities for this event which lasts from mid- morning Saturday to sometime Sunday morning. The Block Party is just one of the lUP traditions that make the students ' experiences 4 Monica 4aicr at lUP more memorable. May it live on. ■Becky Light Top: The Slate Police check out the action.

His sophisticated humor and easy going personality has charmed audiences the world over for the past fifty years. On April seventh he once again dis- played his indescribable talent as he performed before a packed Fisher Auditorium. Not only did he illustrate his ability to play the trumpet, Gil- lespie also tickled the ivories on several occassions. Yet an- other dimension of his seem- ingly boundless musical talent was brought to stage when he sang several Blues tunes, in- cluding Gee Baby, Ain ' t I Been Good to You . Dizzy Gillespie took control of the stage and performed the way only a master entertainer can. He was so established and confident in his talent that he did not always require the lime light of center stage. Several times he strolled to the back of the stage while the other four band members dazzled the au- dience. Gillespie ' s hold over the audience seemed to be hyp- notic as they responded almost as if they had rehearsed beforehand. The only way one can de- scribe the jazz virtuoso is to say that Gillespie is like a story with no paragraphs; there is no break in the action. - Carl H. Eakin Top: Dizzy on Percussion.

Activities 45 BALLET DE MONTREAL Art And Ideas Come To lUP Eddy Toussant ' s Ballet de Montreal brought its excite- ment to IL ' P ' s Fisher Auditori- um on February 23, 1987. The opening number was performed by Miss CrioUa, Anik Bissonnette, Denis Du- lude and the Company. Swirls of multiple colors served as a backdrop as blue lights set the stage. Most of the first scenes fea- tured modern and jazz rh thms to an upbeat tempo. Solo performance by Denis Dulude thrilled the audience to applause.

Behind The Scenes On Broadway The most honored musical of our time. A Chorus Line. was performed to a full house in Fisher Auditorium on Octo- ber 20, 1986. Set on the empty stage of a theatre, A Chorus Line is the classic story of performers who want a place in the sho«-busi- ness spotlight. Sheila, one of the dancers, trys to seduce the producer in order to win a position in the chorus. Cassie. the producer ' s ex-girlfriend, fights against his belief that she is too good for the chorus. As the musical progresses the audience learns many things about each character ' s life and dreams as they share their experiences with the pro- ducer. Zach. while awaiting the audition results. The com- pany remembers discovering love in the song Hello Twelve, Hello Thirteen. Hello Love. When asked what they will do when they can no longer be in show business. Diana leads the company in the famous song, What i Did For Love. These total strangers begin to work together and become very close. When one dancer becomes injured, the entire company wants to help him, but they realize they cannot. The finale, A Chorus Line, the only scene per- formed with more props than an empty stage and the danc- ers ' leotard, brought the house to its feet. -Lvnne Zoll Christopher Lee Top: Zach directs the dancers to their positions on stage.

There ' s the typical on-cam- pus student who lives in the dorms, eats in the cafeteria and never has a hot shower in the morning unless he gets up at 5:30 a.m. There ' s the typical off- campus student who has the joys of a landlord, clogged plumbing, utility bills and cooking. The types of students differ not only in locations for living but in other ways as well. There are foreign students, adult students, handicapped students and commuter students. All lUP students find enjoy- ment in many different ways. This I UP Fun can be found off-campus, uptown or in any number of locations in or about Indiana.

Someone should be home in a few hours! Situation: YouVe hungry. Solution: In the dorms, head for the caf. Your taste buds may not be satisfied but you can always fill up on french fries. Off campus, head for the kitchen. Do you sud- denly feel like .Mother Hubbard facing an empty cupboard? It ' s either go shopping or have macaroni and cheese . . . again. Situation: You want to have a party. Solution: In the dorms, be quiet. What if your hall counselor finds out? Or even the RSAs or Campus Police? Off campus, break loose! Have a blast! Invite as many people as you d like! Off-campus housing versus dorm living is a decision that almost all college stu- dents must make sometime during their college career. Both styles of living have their advantages. A greater sense of free- dom and independence is found in off- campus living, but dorms offer a better location to campus in most cases, and a lot of monthly bills can be avoided. Disadvantages and advantages can be found in either place. Off-campus living offers more privacy, home-like surround- ings and less noise. There are also better meals in some cases, and there is more room in the rooms. But, on the other hand, someone has to run to the store for milk and make sure that the garbage is out on Wednesday night for pickup the next day. Dorm life has its high points — meals are read} and waiting at the caf each day. the bathroom never needs cleaning, and there is more of a chance to meet people. But, there are disadvantages too. Sharing a bathroom with the rest of your floor is quite a hassle, and those hall counselors can be pretty annoying at times. It really doesn ' t matter where you de- cide to live after your freshman year. As long as your friends are near, you continue to study and you can afford it, it ' s up to you. Decisions, decisions! -Barbara Conrov Bill Muhhck Top: A touch of the beach hits the dorms in winter. Above: Studying in a fraternit house is really possible.

The person is a male freshman student. The third week of school has been completed. He no longer has any clean underwear. His jeans walked to the laundry room by themselves, and his hall counselor keeps checking for pets in his room because that odor has to be coming from something. He is surrounded by the laundry sup- plies his mother carefully packed for him before he left home. Powdered de- tergent, measuring cup and fabric soft- ener. The latter items are quickly dis- carded as not necessary. He picks up the box. For ail fabrics and colors. Good. He throws all his clothes in one washer (why sort them); turns the temperature to hot (kills more germs) and pours about two cups of detergent into the washer. He puts his money in the machine and the disaster of the first laundry away from home has begun. When it ' s all said and done, all his whites are pinks and his wool sweater will fit a three-year-old. But it was a learning experience, and his laundry skills will either improve or he will find a girlfriend to do his laundry. As freshmen, laundry is one of the few domestic problems that face lUP males. However, once they age and move off campus, the situation becomes more complicated. Have you ever used a bathroom in a male off-campus apartment? If you ' re I can bet it ' s growing in the shower. Move on to the living room. Look at the carpet. Sec the pretzels ground into it from the last parly. Pour some water on the carpet, smell the beer . . . smell what was thrown up on the carpet after too many beers. Now to the kitchen . . . where won- ders never end. What is the green thing in the vegetable drawer if it ' s not a pep- per? How long have those dishes been sitting in the sink anyway? Even better than what ' s in the kitch- en is what comes out of it. Macaroni and cheese is a staple. Tuna suprise can be created from one can of tuna, one can of mushroom soup and bread- crumbs. It is then left to cook until the smoke alarm is set off and its chef re- members that he started it in the first place. Blue ribbon cooking can always be found when our domestic wonder creates an omelet. If it ' s in the refriger- ator, not moving and easy to dice, it goes in the omelet. Who says pickles, pepperoni and M Ms don ' t mix ' . ' No matter how disasterous their do- mestic attempts are, it all comes down to practice makes perfect.

Colia tcm lUP Fitness Fanancisin The Quest For The Perfect Body It ' s 8 a.m. on a Monday morning. As you begin your daily routine, you stagger over to the mirror, squint your eyes open a crack and peer in. If you ' re like many of us, you ' re proba- bly not totally happy with what you see. Many of us want to improve something about our appearances: we want thinner thighs, flatter stomachs or firmer muscles. At lUP, students have many resources available to them to help them achieve their fitness goals. A jog around town is always nice for starters, but if you prefer not tripping over the sidewalks or people, the track at Miller stadium is available, as is the large track at Mack Park. Mack Park also offers ice skating for a small fee in the winter. Winter provides us with many fitness opportunities, such as downhill skiing or tobogganing at the University Ski Lodge. Cross-country skiing is also available for those with extra-strong hearts, lungs and muscles. Unfortunately, when the outside turns cold, many of us turn for the inside. It is in these winter months that we may trade fitness for warmth, but never fear — lUP also has plenty of indoor activity for those dreary winter months. First, the recreation center in the HUB. You can start off with a nice relaxing sau- na to sweat off some pounds. Next, move on to the grueling par course, the exercise bikes, the weights, and then top it all off with an hour-long session of aerobics. If this isn ' t enough to exhaust you, you can always jog down to the Memorial Field House for a dip in the pool and then give the weight room there a try. After all of this exercise is over and you ' re feeling like a new person, there ' s only one thing left to do. COLLAPSE! -Dana Smith Lifestyles 55 It ' s A Nice Place To Visit The Decision To Commute Is Difficult SOUTH Parking Commuter, Staff Only What would college life be without dorm rooms, cafe food and all-night dis- cussions with roommates? What would it be like to sleep in the same bedroom where you grew up, eat the same nourishing meals that mom always made, and prolong your flight from the nest? lUP commuters know what it ' s like to live at home and drive, walk or bike to school. Making the decision to become a commuter is not an easy one. Students must consider the cost of living in the dorms and buying a meal ticket versus the cost of gas, parking stickers and the aggra- vation of getting up early to allow extra time for driving. When contemplating over the decision of whether or not to become a commuter, there are good and bad points to becoming a commuter. Frequent complaints include parking problems, snowy driving, inability to study at home and the feeling that they ' re miss- ing out. The feeling that they ' re missing out comes from hearing other students in classes discussing roommate problems, pizza parties at 2 a.m. and all-night study- ing sessions in the floor lounge. Being able to study anywhere is an im- possible feat for a lot of commuters Little brothers and sisters can be louder than you ever thought. Mom and dad never turn the television off, and the telephone never stops ringing. Trips to the library become too inconvenient to handle. After all, you can ' t eat and wear your p.j. ' s in the library. And then there ' s always the ride home afterwards. Driving to and from school can become a hassle, especially when the snowy season begins and parents worry when you ' re out too late. Not all commuters have all these prob- lems. Tom Fidler, a senior commuting stu- dent, said, I enjoy living at home and getting to know my family better. My two favorite pluses of commuting are getting my mom to type my papers for me and having my feet kept warm by my dog. Living with mom and dad during college can be beneficial, especially at meal times. You never have to rely on eating in the cafe. And you don ' t have to pay for that food or the bedroom that you grew up in. That money you save can be spent on the down payment for a car. Using a car can be a plus. When it gets cold, you never have to turn blue in the below-zero weather, of which we have sev- eral days in Indiana. The number one advantage of living at home may be the hours of quiet which occur from midnight to 7 a.m. You never have to deal with screaming, drunk stu- dents who live on your floor. After all, sleep is important when you have a test the next day. No matter whatever you decide to com- mute or not, you still get the education which, after all, we ' re all here for. The education you get from living on your own is important, but commuters aren ' t miss- ing out, they ' re just prolonging it. Realizing commuters do exist and need special attention in certain circumstances is someting this university should achieve. -Lesley Holton OCCALS OXUY VIOLATORS WILL BE TOWED C nthij Cjrmickic Top.

( hn topber Lcc Adult Students Face Odds Learn To Combine Jobs With Education C nlhi3 Cjrmicklc Just getting out of bed for an 8 a.m. class is a difficult task for some I UP stu- dents. There is something thai makes get- ting up at 7 a.m. seem unbearable. It ' s a struggle staying awake enough to make it to the shower. Imagine the thought of getting not only yourself awake and ready for a day of classes; but getting a whole family awake and ready for their days as well. Fixing breakfast for four people, instead of going to the cafeteria or putting a pop- tart in the toaster. Seeing your children off to daycare or school. Finishing the chores that go with any household. The picture is clear. It ' s a situation that can face an adult student returning to ILP for a college degree. There are cur- rently more than 1,000 adult students en- rolled at ILP. This scenario does not face all of them. In fact, over 100 adult stu- dents live in the residence halls and many have a typical college morning of crowded bathrooms and lack of hot water. There are adult students who face dif- ferent odds — such as working full-time while continuing their education. Many difficulties arise from juggling work and class schedules. Efficient time manage- ment is always important. ■Attending classes and getting back to studying is also an adjustment for adult students. There is a difference between the working world and college. The hardest part for me (upon return- ing to ILP for a degree) was being out of school and having to adjust again. said Joann Condran, a senior nursing major and adult student. You go from being an independent wage earner to a student. There ' s some role conflict between family, work and student. _ I had been out of high school for so long that I had a lot of catching up to do. said Kim Husenits. a psychology major. I don ' t feel there is an adequate system for adult students coming into ILP. The ad- ministration had to realize that our num- bers are growing. At times, they (the ad- ministration) seem anti ' - returning students. Both Condron and Husenits were active in the founding of the .Adult Student League in 1982. Husenits noted that things are getting better for the adult stu- dents, including a special orientation pro- gram for non-traditional students. This program was created by the Office of Stu- dent Development under the supervision of Sherrill Kuckuck. The label adult students has caused confusion in the past and still does. Most college students are considered to be adults because they are over 18. It ' s an unfortunate name (adult stu- dents). said Condron. We ' re ' nontradi- tional students, who aren ' t the traditional students, who aren ' t the traditional age or situation . . . We don ' t want to be treated different, however, we are different. Returning to college has its bright spots for adult as well. I enjoy meeting the students and learn- ing about the variety of interests they have. said Doug Hadbavny, a senior food service management major. It ' s like go- ing into a time machine ... I can see myself in the variety of people I meet. I like the challenge . . . there ' s a growth that occurs and a sense of accomplishment that comes with it. said Condron. Husenits agrees with Condron. The challenge of it (returning to school) is the best part. I enjo the intellectual stimula- tion and starting new every semester. It ' s never routine or boring to me. As anyone can see. whether they are called adult students or non-tradition- al students. the have the traditional goal of most ILP students — earning a degree . in higher education. -Cynthia Carmickle 57 Indiana By Day And By Night When Downtown Turns To Uptown What do you do most afternoons after classes? Watch the soaps . . . Munch out on snacks . . . Take a nap . . . Study . . . Why not spend the afternoon some- where fun, with friends or by yourself? Somewhere close and convenient to all lUP students, by a place which goes unno- ticed by most. Yes, of course, downtown Indiana. A place distinct and like no other town. A place where you can hear the trucks and buses, the voices of Indiana residents young and old, the cash registers ringing up total purchases and the buzzers letting you know it is safe to cross the street. Downtown Indiana is also filled with smells of fresh-baked bread, hot pizza and Issac ' s unusual sandwiches. Even though the sounds and smells are enjoyable, the things you see in the after- noon can entertain you all afternoon. While you shop in the 700 Shop and Brody ' s, you see the newest styles and the H best bargains. You can stock up on Hall- marks at the Card Connection or just read the funny cards at Saco. By the time you stop at McCrory ' s for odds and ends, you will probably be hungry. The food choices are endless. Pizza from Tom ' s, fast food from Kentucky Fried Chicken, burgers and fries at H.B. Culpeppers, soups and deli sandwiches from 9th Street Deli and the most unusual salads, sandwiches and desserts form Isaac ' s. But there is more to Downtown Indiana than eating and shopping. You can have some good conversations with other stu- dents, workers on lunch breaks and senior citizens. You can meet interesting people and learn so much about this town. After all, we are here for four years. Most stu- dents leave knowing as much about Indi- ana as when they came. Besides talking to people on Philadel- phia Street, you can take a walk down- town. It is refreshing during both day and night. When it comes to nights in Indiana, a walk is just the beginning. Once the shops close and the streetlights are on down- town, Indiana turns in to uptown. Going uptown is a common practice for lUP students over 21. The uptown bars, Al Patti ' s, H.B. Culpepper ' s, Coney Island and Wolfendale ' s host hundreds of stu- dents each Friday and Saturday nights who enjoy good friends and good times. Wolfendale ' s is possibly the biggest at- traction. Where else can you sing, talk, yell and drink with your friends all on top of the booth benches? Yes, standing on the booth benches is one of the best places to watch for your favorite C.P. (Campus Pas- sion) or to look for favorite new ones. An- other great spot is upstairs in the balcony. H.B. Culpepper ' s is a different type of atmosphere. It is less crowded and friends gather to talk, drink and eat Chicago-style pizza together. H.B. Culpepper ' s, a bar with more character than the typical col- lege bar, is decorated with old pictures. If you and your friends enjoy live music. Coney Island may be the bar for you. Now that you know some of the high- lights of Indiana by day and night, you can take advantage of the town that lUP and its students are a part of.

I like the convenience of everything being right here. ILP s foreign student population is esti- mated at 257. According to Murhe Oz- turan, president of the International Stu- dents Club, this is a plus for the university. I LP has a very large foreign student program. said Ozturan. There is a better chance for mixing. ILP treats foreign stu- dents well. I feel at home here. IL ' P ' s foreign students are active on campus. In September, for example, 15 Central American students took part in a public forum to discuss their native coun- tries as well as their experiences in the Lnited States. During Homecoming, the International Students Club sponsored a tent with assorted foods and various dis- plays. This club also sponsored the Mr. International Students Club contest in the fall. This year ' s winner was Rodolfo Castro of Costa Rica, runner-up was Brian Biddlecombe of England. There are also negative aspects to being a foreign student. The greatest seems to be missing home. But as with any students at any uni ersit . once friends are made and surroundings become familiar, that homesick feeling lessens or even disappears. -Cynthia Carmickle I Cynthia Carmickle Top: England ' s Brian Biddlecombe. .4 bore.- Gwinam Lee of Korea, looks up from studying.

What would it be like lo be in a wheelchair all day, or to be unable to read your textbooks, or to sit in a class without hearing a word the pro- fessor or the students say? Most of us never think about being handicapped or disabled. But there are 60-65 handicapped students, physically and mentally on iUP ' s campus. Catherine Dugan, coordinator of Handicapped Services, is also the coordinator of Advising and Testing. She works with students on work study and volunteers. She said, We try to help handi- capped students in any way we can. The Handicapped Services office, which was moved to Pratt Hall in July, provides handicapped students with tutors, students to take notes for some students, test proctors, who read the test questions to blind stu- dents, and tape recorders and stu- dents to record texts. They also pro- vide books in Braille for blind students. The needs of these students are special and we can understand and help them, Dugan said. The ofnce will help handicapped student but they must come forward and identify themselves to the office. All university students receive a declaration of disability form. If they fill it out and send it, we get in touch with them, she said. We call them when they arrive on campus so we can help them if they have any problems. From there it is all up to the stu- dents to keep in touch with us. We urge students with learning disabilities to come in for weekly help sessions, Dugan said. Besides working directlv with the students, the Handicapped Services Office also works with administra- tors and maintenance when changes are needed on campus. Most things have been done quickly and with little hassles. The restrooms and water fountains are all accessable. There are buzzers in the elevators and maintenance is always quick about shoveling the walks and parking lots, she said. However, not everything is so sim- ple to accomplish. I think we have to educate people on this campus about handicapped students, Du- gan said. This in turn, would lead them to educate employers. Letting them know that handicapped people can be great employees, she said. These are a few of the goals which Dugan said will be achieved with a lot of work and dedication. -Lesley Hoi ton 61 Relaxing, lUP Style Here Comes The Weekend! When a long week of classes and study- ing is over, many students throw aside the books for the weekend and aim for one thing: relaxation. Although some of us don ' t wait for the weekend to unwind and some of us can ' t unwind every weekend, we ' re always look- ing for things to do to take away the frus- tration of a failed test, a pop-quiz or just a rotten week. These things can take differ- ent forms for different people. For example, there is only one thing that crosses some minds on a Friday afternoon: happy hour. This is the beginning of a party-packed weekend for many, when thoughts of school are stored away until Monday morning. For those who don ' t party constantly or who simply need a break between parties, something can usually be found to do around town or on campus, such as con- certs, movies or shopping sprees. The more sports-minded individuals can always find something to do around cam- pus for relaxation — a friendly game of tackle mud-football in the quad, a most relaxing game of racquetball in the HUB recreation center, or even a game of pool. If this physical activity seems to oppose the word relaxation , there are always team or club sports to be seen on campus, and what winter Sunday would be com- plete without watching at least five differ- ent games of football? If sports isn ' t your fancy, there are al- ways other weekend shows to watch on TV while you are lounging around the house. There ' s the Saturday morning favorite, Pee Wees Playhouse. or if your into_ more advance shows, there ' s alwayj Smurfs, Thundercats or G.I. Joe. course the old standards such as Miami Vice, Friday Night Videos and Saturday Night Live still apply, but those cartoons are great when recovering from the night before. Whatever your personal tastes may lUP and Indiana do have much to offer if you look around. But if you can ' t seem to find anything else to do, the weekend will usually provide one form of relaxation that every student wants the most: sleep. -Dana Smith 62 Lifestyles Lifestyles 63 RETROSPECT: The Year In Review A Look Back At The 1986-87 Academic Year SEPTEMBER Around Town . , . September saw the start of the 1986-87 academic year and the start of many changes on campus. Once completed, the cogeneration plant next to Folger and the steam distribution s stem will improve and economize the heat used on campus. Con- struction also began on a cul-de-sac park- ing lot and pedestrian mall near the HUB to help solve traffic congestion in that area. Plans also were made for the renova- tion of Waller, Weyandt, McElhaney. Uhler and Clark Halls, and a contract was signed to construct a new College of Busi- ness building. While these changes were forming to improve IL ' P ' s physical appearance, a campaign was ending to improve lUP ' s image. The .Ad Hoc Committee on Uni- versity Identity officially declared Indi- ans as lUP ' s athletic nickname, after a possible switch to Arrows, among oth- ers. Instead, we chose a new logo to help implant and establish a permanent image. Meanwhile, downtown Indiana was un- der-going a change. The three-year Main Street Project was started in September to help restructure, promote, design and or- ganize the downtown area. As plans were being made to improve parts of Indiana, the first of many fires throughout the year destroyed another part of it. A smoke alarm saved the lives of five students of S.

Meanwhile in the .Middle East, an .American school teacher was kidnapped in Lebanon and became one of six Ameri- cans still missing in that country. Destruction and despair also headlined in September as a volcanic lake in the town of Cameroon in Central Africa spewed deadly gas, killing more than 1,700 people and leaving hundreds more injured. Disaster also hit the airways as a British Airtour Boeing 747 burst into fiames, kill- ing 54. This and other airline tragedies accounted for 1986 being called the worst single year in the histor of civil aviation. Closer to home, drug abuse prevention and education were a main issue in Sep- tember.

Entertainmenl was the main attraction at lUP in October. The lUP and Indiana communities were treated to a variety of speakers, concerts and plays. Fisher Auditorium was filled with the rock of the Psychedelic Furs and the soul-filled blues of Ray Charles. The stage was then set for the story of dancers lives and fears as Broadway ' s A Chorus Line came to lUP. Next the action moved to Waller Hall as The Birthday Party was performed by Theater-by-the- Grove. The entertainment moved to a more se- rious form when different lecturers came to I UP. 1960s political activist Abbie Hoffman spoke on student activism, and former M A S H star Mike Farell spoke on the .American people ' s right and re- sponsib ility to protest government policies.

Some of the provisions of the bill would include interest payments on student loans no longer being deductible, and scholar- ships and other aid that cover non-tuition bills will become treated as taxable income. Reagan administration officials argue that the bill will ultimately benefit col- leges, but students and some financial aid officers don ' t see it quite that way. To students who could lose some or all of their financial aid, it can be seen as nothing but a threat for higher education. Although this was the important news for students. October ' s international was dominated by the Summit talks in Iceland between President Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev. Hopes for an arms resolution were high, but when the summit was over, the men did not reach an agreement on how to control nuclear weapons. In other international matters, congress overrode the President ' s veto of a bill call- ing for stiff economic sanctions against South Africa, protesting the apartheid government of that nation. Major U.S. corporations such as IBM and General Motors pulled all operations out of South Africa as part of a growing trend toward corporate divestment from the nation. Lifestyles 55 NOVEMBER Around Town . . . The dreams of the lUP football team came true in November as they defeated West Chester 20-6 in the PSAC State Game to become State Champs. Sports accomplishments prevailed this month, including a first-place finish for the women ' s cross-country team in the PSAC championships, for the fourth year in a row. The women then went on to win the NCAA Div. II Northeast regional meet and come in 11th at Nationals in California. The men ' s cross-country team also fared well, finishing second in the PSAC championships and placing thir- teenth at the National championships. In other sports, the women ' s volleyball team placed fourth at the PSAC finals which qualified them for States, and the women ' s field hockey team placed third in the PSAC playoffs. This month also saw the crowning of a new Mr. lUP, Walt McCready (See relat- ed story, pp. 36 and 37). The chances of more students seeing Mr. lUP increased as lUP ' s enrollment reached record heights in the fall semester, with 13,248 students enrolled. In state affairs, Pennsylvania voters elected Robert Casey (D) as their new governor, defeating Republican Bill Scranton after a much-publicized, mud- slinging ad campaign. Around The World . . . On November 13th, President Reagan confirmed what would be the biggest crisis during his presidency: that he had, in fact, been involved with 18 months of arms transfers with Iran. The scope of this in- volvement and the roles others played in this drama were to unfold in the following months, causing a shake-up in Reagan ' s administration and months of hearings on what came to be known as the Iran-Contra affair. The U.S. relationship with Moscow also took a step down as Washington and Mos- cow took turns expelling each others ' dip- lomats for alleged spying in their respec- tive embassies.

Meanwhile, in January, Kappa Delta Rho fraternity raised SI, 000 for Chil- dren ' s FJospital in Pittsburgh and Indiana Hospital on their annual Walk to Pitts- burgh. Also, the Interfraternity Council passed a closed party policy in December which prohibits any form of paid compen- sation for beer, effective immediately on campus. This and the dry rush policies began to rebuild lUP ' s Greek system. lUP planned a $4 million asbestos re- moval project to remove the harmful and potentially fatal substance from 22 build- ings on campus which pose a moderate to high hazard potential.

Lifestyles 67 The Year Indiana Burned A sad memory which will last forever For most of us. it will serve as the pre- vailing memory of the 1986-87 year. It haunted us continually, caused us to live in fear and damaged the lives of our- selves and our friends. No one could escape the arsonist ' s deadly game this year. We read about it happening in the papers to someone else. and before we knew it. it was happening to our friends and ourselves. Each time the sirens sounded their trag- ic scream, our stomachs twisted and our hearts raced as we wondered who the next victim was. Was it in our neighborhood? W ' as it someone we knew? Was it us? These questions were the norm this year as 38 fires from .August to March affected 81 adults and 36 children, leaving manv homeless or without much of the propert they had worked so hard to accumulate. -A total of 59 suspicious fires were reported since .April of 1985. and the ma- jority of the fires which hit the homes of students this year were also of suspicious origin. The arsonist left no pattern, no form for investigators to follow. Many of the fires were started in trash left on back porches, but the origins of many of the fires could not be easily determined. So many of us began to take precau- tions: wailing until the night before pick- up to put out the trash, leaving outside lights on all night, being aware of any strange noises or people in our neighbor- hoods, and installing smoke alarms and fire extinguishers. But these precautionary measures were not always enough, and the sirens contin- ued to cry over the loss of a total of two lives and hundreds of thousands of dollars of damage. It didn ' t matter to the arsonist what burned: businesses, student housing. Indi- ana residences and even dormitories were all struck. .A few of the fires throughout the ear included: o ember II. .Allied Electric and .Mil- lard .Appliance w ere destroyed on the ! 000 block of Philadelphia Street. January 7. a total of S22.000 damage from a fire on the 500 block of Church Street while the student residents were on winter break. Vanuary 22. four fires between 1:32 and 3:32 a.m. caused an estimated S70.000 damage to Poor Carl ' s Restaurant and Lounge at 547 Philadelphia Street. Two Indiana residents were found dead. February 3. the home of 3 students at 859 Wayne .Ave was hit. along with an unoccupied house at 311 .Maple Street. February IS. seven students were left with nothing but the clothes on their back when their house on S. Sixth Street ex- ploded in a late evening fire. The universi- ty added S2.500 to the reward fund and the students were given aid by the Red Cross. K-Mart and the Co-op bookstore, but the memories they ' ve collected o er the years were irreplacable. March 5. the vacant old roller rink on Wa ne .Avenue crumbled in a matter of minutes. farch 11, the first on-campus fire, as residents of Whitmyre Hall were evacuat- ed in an afternoon fire which resulted in damage to the building. .A note scrawled on a wall inside the building was found which warned that Whitmyre would be the next target. March 27. a fire on the third floor of Campus Towers apartments was termed suspicious. It was not clear that all of these fires were arson-sparked, however, the terrify- ing effects the fires had around campus and around the state were realized. Controversy fiew over whether the per- petrator was a college student or a town- sperson. but the answer really didn ' t mat- ter to those who became victims. Once April came, the fires seemed to diminish if not cease around Indiana. Ru- mors fiew that the arsonist had actually been caught, but no information on any arrests was released by the police. We can still see the effects around us — houses which once stood tall are now gone, all that remains of some businesses are piles of rubble, and some places are even- tually starting to rebuild. But those of us who lived in fear of the arsonist will ne ' er forget this sad aspect of our year at I LP. - Dana Smith 68 Lifestyles left: All thai remained of Allied Electric was the frame and the sign which once hung outside.

Around Town When the month of March is mentioned to an lUP or any other college student, what ' s the first thing that comes to mind? SPRING BREAK! And yes, the usual flood of tan- and thrill-seekers trekked to Daytona, Ft. Lau- derdale, or even more exotic places like Cancun to bronze their bods and party like crazy. But before and after this mid-semester craziness, life at lUP did continue. The light-heartedness of Spring Break could also be found at lUP in March with such events as the Activities Board-spon- sored Twister Tournament and entertain- ment such as Eddie Money and Marcel Marceau. Sports looked good in March as the women ' s gymnastics team won their fourth straight PSAC championship and the Div. II Southeastern regional meet to move on to Nationals in April. Also, the Apaches Ice Hockey team made it to the league semi-finals amidst financial and transpor- tation problems. Unfortunately, the news of the arsonist was not good in March. More fires plagued Indiana, including the old roller rink on Wayne Avenue and a student home on the 13th block of Church Street. The first suspicious fire on campus took place in March, with residents of Whit- myre Hall being evacuated in an afternoon Around The World fire which damaged the building. March was also the anniversary of the strike by McCreary Tire and Rubber Company workers, which started one year ago this month and whose picketers be- came a familiar sight on Route 286. As the lUP population settled down in attempts to avoid the cold weather, most activities also slowed down. But as many of us were relaxing in our warm homes or rooms in February, twelve girls were busy practicing for this year ' s Miss lUP pageant. When it was all over, Alyce Grimm, a senior music education major from Meyersdale, Pa. walked away with the title and all of its benefits. (See related story, pp. 34 and 35.) The I UP campus was also undergoing some changes in February. A $75,000 sig- nage program, part of the university ' s Im- age Enhancement program, was imple- mented at various points on campus, and the university ' s new seal was adopted. President Welty also announced that the construction which had continually dis- rupted campus life and ruined clothing should be completed by the time we return in the fall. Meanwhile, around Indiana, an anti- pornography campaign was started against local merchants who sell porno- graphic materials. On the international side of the news, American reporter Gerald Seib was ar- rested by Iran as an accused spy of the Zionist regime. Seib, a Wall Street Jour- nal Correspondent, was one of the growing number of Americans accused of spying in foreign countries and subsequently held prisoner. White House resignations as a result of the Iranian arms scandal abounded in February, including Oliver North, a top aide in the National Security Council, John Poindexeter, the National Security Advisor, and William Casey, CIA direc- tor, all top players in the scandal. Deaths in February included Liberace, long-time pianist and showman, who died from AIDS-related pneumonia, and Andy Warhol, 58, pop artist. 70 Lifestyles APRIL MAY Below: May equals graduation Around Town . As the 1986-87 year wound down in April and May, students were warned of a possible SI 75 increase in tuition at ILP. Another possibility for ILP was astro- turf installation for Miller Staduim. a much-debated topic which is still not re- solved. But plans were put in motion to install a new fitness facilit in Zink Hall to be read) for the fall In other sports news, the men ' s golf team took second place at the PSAC championships and the women ' s Softball team tied for second in the PSAC Western Division. Also, the women ' s gymnastics team placed seventh out of eight teams in National competition in Wisconsin as two more gymnasts were named .-Mi- American. Music activities were also available in April as TBTG presented Dames at Sea: Music Theater performed Die Fleder- maus; 1964, a group of Beatle-like per- formers, won much appreciation m Fisher; and of course, Greek Sing. Alpha Xi Delta and Phi Delta Theta took first in Greek Smg, while .Alpha Sig- ma .Alpha won Sigma Chi ' s Dergy Days, raising over S700 for Camp Orenda. Also in April, Robert McFarlane, Na- tional Security .Adivsor to President Rea- gan and a ke figure in the Iran-contra affair made his first collegiate visit since the incident. Around The World In the scene around the world, a second set of arms talks was held with Moscow as the United States tried to reach an agreement of removing all medium-range missiles the two countries have in Europe. Also in Moscow was a growing sex-and- spy scandal, as four Marines were arrested on charges of spying. Meanwhile, President Reagan was busy trying to convince Congress to accept his veto of an $88 billion highway bill, perhaps in an attempt to rebuild his prestige. But Congress overrode Reagan ' s veto and states became permitted to raise their speed limit to 65 on most highways. The lives of public figures became a public battleground as it was reported that the Rev. Jim Bakker, president of the PTL club had participated in a sex-and-money scandal which caused him to resign from his position. Dougljt Mjcek Also caught in the act was presidential hopeful Gary Hart, who withdrew from the race after the Miami Herald reported Hart was having an affair. On the lighter side, Platoon, the Viet- nam war epic, won the Oscar for best picture of 1986. But it was also a sad time for Hill Street Blues fans as the most-awarded dra- matic series was cancelled after seven years. Retrospect 71 7 ■ ACADEMICS lUP prides itself on making academics number one. While some may argue thai too much is spent on athletics, or the new image enhancement projects, the majority of students tuition does go toward academics. Academics is more than the tuition part of a student ' s bill however. Academics is a great deal of time and effort, doing what all good college stu- dents do . . . STUDY! Most students feel you haven ' t lived until you ' ve pulled your first all-nighter or blown off a class. Academics at lUP has also been newsworthy. To date the APSCUF members have not signed a contract, meaning professors could be striking next semester. APSCUF is also concerned with the high num- ber of temporary faculty now at lUP. Lastly, lUP students will have new general education re- quirements in the near future as a special committee devel- oped a new program which has been widely approved by both faculty and students.

Everyone is limited by it. And it never seems to go as far as it should. What is it? Money. College students never seem to have enough and usually attempt to budget their spending. But then again, almost everyone is restricted by a budget in one way or another, in- cluding lUP ' s President, Dr. John D. Welty. But what would he do if given that dream of an unlimited budget? Welty has several ideas. First, Welty ' s unlimit- ed budget would buy lUP additional land, since the university is us- ing almost every piece of its 167 acres. With the additional land, he would build some additional campus facilities, which would include science fa- cilities, a large cultural and fine arts area and a recreational center. Along with i ncreasing the size of the campus, he would like to renovate some of the current buildings including McElhaney, Uhler, Wal- ler and Breezedale. With the next portion of his budget, Welty would like to expand the university ' s activities and resources. However, this budget is only that — a dream. And Welty, with his pre- sent budget, has been able to make certain im- provements to the cam- pus and has a lot of fu- ture plans. One of the improve- ments is increasing the number of permanent faculty. He has also been able to give additional money to strengthen the library ' s resources, which involve increasing the number of staff and the acquisition of more books. He is also working on long-term plans for a computing system on campus. This will make us current and place us in an excellent position to other comparable univer- sities, Welty said. In ten years, I ' d like lUP continuing to make major strides forward and be known as a strong university with some pro- grams that have obtained national stature, and the university viewed as a leader in education in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. — Barbra Smergalski Top left: Dr. Welty listens to the graduation closing statement.

Kolb. The school focuses on people who are learning on the run, he added. It offers people with family and job responsibilities the chance to learn and try dif- ferent things. About 18,0000 people were educated last year in the four major divisions of the school which offer a variety of credit and non-credit programs. The first division is part- time study. These students are not degree candidates, but can become eligible. Pr ograms are offered on- and off-campus at locations such as high schools. lUP provides the faculty, books, and registration and the high school provides the facilities. The second division consists of conferences and non-credit programs. These are general interest courses which include cultural and recreational sub- jects, real estate, computers and even on-site training in hospitals for nurses and medi- cal technicians in health and human services. Special programs like youth experience and mornings with professors (people can meet and talk with them), are also offered. Summer conferences are held when outside groups come to lUP to use the facili- ties and hold their programs. During the academic year, the school works with other de- partments. An example of this was the education conference held in 1986. The highway safety center and motorcycle safety program are the third division. lUP is the state coordinator for mo- torcycle safety and trains the teachers for the rest of the state. Approximately 5,000 people were trained last year, said Kolb. Emergency services are also taught to those who wish to learn or simply improve their knowledge of subjects like CPR or field emergencies. Lastly, the Criminal Justice Training Center, which is non- credit, makes the fourth divi- sion. These students can be certified to be law enforcement officers that may work for the police or government, to name a few. Changes within the school were an office move to Whit- myre and the hiring of a part- time instructor in health and human services, Ernest Detore. The college began offering courses to the downtown busi- ness association and it also made its first attempt to offer TV-assisted courses, said Kolb. These are televised on public television and, along with sup- plemental materia ls, they offer credit for those who live some distance away. Programs are also offered through teleconferences, which are held live, so that partici- pants can call and ask ques- tions. Kolb said that this is a way of bringing top-name people to campus. Non-credit business semi- nars sponsored by Laurel Bank are also offered four times a year. Speakers are brought in for workshops with local busi- ness people. A new credit program was established for an associate de- gree for part-time students. The program is geared toward adults with a short term goal who have never been to col- lege, said Kolb. He added that the School of Continuing Education is for poets who want to be restau- rant owners and restaurant owners who want to be poets. — Maryann Koknchak 76 Academics Opposite Page Center left Dean Nicholas E.

This is re- flected in lUP ' s College of Business, one of the largest col- leges at the university. The College of Business, es- tablished in May 1966, has ap- proximately 4,000 students and 72 faculty members. The College has four depart- ments, which include adminis- trative service and business education, accounting, finance and management information systems and the management and marketing department. According to Dr. Cyrus Alti- mus, dean of the college, the success of the departments are attributed to the quality of the faculty and students, and when the students graduate they are carrying the departments im- age to the community. The administrative service and business education depart- ments prepare students to be- come junior and senior high school teachers, including cer- tification in data processing, marketing and secretarial and distributive education. The accounting department gives students training in pub- lic accounting, accounting in business, industry or government. The finance department is designed to train students in fi- nancial management of a firm and investment analysis. And the MIS department provides a background in business com- puter technology and in the de- sign and implementation of MIS. The management and mar- keting departments cover mar- keting, general management, human resource management and claims management. Over the last eight years, the College of Business has moved from a college setting status to a university setting, Altimus said. We have, in fact, maintained strong even through we must battle a limit- ed budget. Altimus said that the college is in the process of defining its resources and evaluating where it will be going in the next five to ten years. — Barbra Smergalski lUP f COLLEGE OF BUSINESS ACADEMIC ADVISEMENT • Freshman and Sophomore Advisement • Probation Evaluation and Clearance • Pre-Registration Materials • Individual Counseling • Graduation Clearance • Course Substitutions • Group Advisement • WofkahODS DouglMS MMcek . n« Dougljy Vfj f Dougfjs Vfji-ci Academics 79 College Of Humanities This Page Top right: Chairpersons of the College of Humanities, Center left: Dr. Oliver Ford, dean of the college Center right: Reading-an easy way to pass time.

We are chang- ing participants, but the struc- ture is the same, slated Oliver Ford, Dean of the College of Humanities and Social Sciences. The College of Humanities and Social Sciences encom- passes approximately 1,928 un- dergraduates. Thirteen depart- ments comprise the college: Criminology, Economics, En- glish, French, German, Span- ish and Classical Languages, Geography and Regional Plan- ning, History, Industrial and Labor Relations, Journalism, Philosophy and Religious Studies, Political (Internation- al) Science, and Sociolo- gy Anthropology. Currently, Criminology is the most popu- lar major in this college. Ford stated that a Ph.D. in Criminology is now available, as is a Baccalaureate in Reli- gious Studies, a popular minor for theology or pre-seminary students. New types of equipment that have recently been added to the college include a Computer Cartographic Lab for the Ge- ography and Regional Plan- ning Department, a College Micro-processing Lab using IBM computers and a Social Science Data Analysis Center in Keith Hall. Changes have also been made in the study abroad pro- gram. lUP has obtained new agreements with five Chinese universities, and we also have added a consortium in Japan. The Roxton program has been expanded to include b6th the fall and the spring semesters. lUP ' s original study abroad program in Valladolid, Spain celebrated its 25th anniversary this year. Over 500 I UP stu- dents have participated in this program. When asked if he could give anything to his college without having to worry about money, or if he could change the col- lege in any way. Dean Ford stated that he would like to reach for resources and op- portunities that would enable us to accomplish goals in the General Education task force. He would also like to broaden liberal education and the un- derstanding of other cultures. Another major area that Ford is concerned about involves the role of language and the im- provement of writing and speaking skills in upcoming graduates. — Barbara Conroy Thid Mccklet Academics 81 WHAT IS COLLEGE? What is college ' Ask that question to the family of any college student and they probably answer, Where my son daughter goes for four years. Well, hopefully four years. It sounds simple enough. A student graduates from high school and goes on to college. What will he re- ceive his degree in ' . ' His ma- jor of course, but also a de- gree in life. What is college ' . ' Ask that question to actual college students and their answers will probabK be quite dif- ferent. The) may think of it as a place to party, a place to meet people, possibl po- tential wives or husbands, or a place that the can jom organizations for that all- important resume. Maybe it ' s a place to find out what mdcpcndence is really all about Some tvpe of preparation should be given to jnconimg freshmen before they actu- ally begin college. The me- dia paints a rosy picture, but wc all know that things aren ' t always as t h e appear. What is college all about ' College is missing Mom ' s home cooking, cspecialK af- ter reading the dinner choices al the cafeteria or discovering that the only scrap of food that you have left is a box of macaroni and cheese. (Please, no more!!!) It ' s missing the days when you could ask Dad for mon- ey to go out for the night. Now you have to write to him, or spend the money that you alread) don ' t have in calling him. College is missing your boyfriend, girl- friend or best friend so much that your phone bill seems to exceed the national debt. At times, you ' ll swear that you ' ll never go home again, only to find that you yearn for home the next day. Sometimes you ' ll feel as if you ' ve been forgot- ten you wish your phone would ring, just to reassure yourself that vou ' re still alive, or you may launch into a frcn y of letterwriling in an effort to keep in touch with vour farawav friends and famiK. ' V ' ou ' ll wait with anticipation for them to write back . . . what time does the mail come in ' Is it here yet ' College IS walking when you realK don ' t want to walk. You walk to class, to the store, to visit friends, to McDonald ' s . . . evcrv where. Suddcnh Nou ' re forced to S3 It. dfni Ls take an umbrella with you ev- erywhere you go, because you can never be sure of where you ' ll be when a storm hits. Al- though the snow in the winter may look pretty, you ' ll begin to dread it because of those huge, seemingly endless snow drifts that you must walk through. College is money, or, more accurately, the lack of it. You ' re thrust into the world of high finance, where you dis- cover the true hidden value of quarters, dimes and nickels. Just a few of each of these can turn into a can of soda pop or a candy bar during a hectic day of classes, a load of laundry, a Sheet? hot dog. or a copy of the notes from the lecture you slept through the day before. College is one never-ending trip to the Cashstream or Mac machine. College is food. Maybe it ' s pizza or hoagies delivered to your door when you don ' t feel like cooking or walking to din- ner. Or maybe it ' s munching on Oreos. Snickers, pretzels or any other available junk food while watching TV, studying, or just sitting around with friends. You are suddenly able to eat things that your mother never let you eat. at times when she never even thought you would be eating. College is dirty clothes. Wearing your clothes over and over again without washing be- comes commonplace. You won ' t care if your clothes are wrinkled, dirty or torn because you are too busy to iron, wash, or sew them. Here ' s a rule of thumb: You know you are in college when you find that you have enough socks and under- wear to last for a month . . . without washing. College is waiting. You be- come accustomed to wailing for everything from check-in and registration to buying books and Drop-Add. You wait with anticipation (or may- be a few prayers!) for grades to be posted. You wait for your number to come up on the Se- rials screen in the library. You get up earlier so you don ' t have to wait for a hot shower. College is meeting people. You ' re thrown in with your first roommate, whom you probably didn ' t even know be- fore you walked into the dorm. You learn to tolerate people, and you learn to stay away from those that you simply can ' t tolerate. You may notice that you recognize the people that you pass everyday, even though you probabh don ' t even know who they are. College is classes and study- ing. You may wonder how you ever got through eight-hour days, like in high school, hen now it seems difficult to go to more than two or three classes in one day. For some of us. even that day with only one class is a true effort. College is staying up all night to cram an entire semester into your head. You might blow-off your class to watch your favorite soap op- era because the preview looked interesting or because two of the main characters are getting married. College cannot be defined with a simple dictionary defini- tion. It must be experienced. In reality, college is that difficult transition from childhood or adolescence to adulthood, all crammed into four years. It ' s always an academic education, but it ' s certainly always an education in life too. — Barbara Conrov Opposite Page Top left I ' m gelling up . Rcall I ' m .

It has been a big chal- lenge to make the college work, Dean Wingard said. The College of Human Ecol- ogy and the College of Health Sciences joined in July, 1986. I ' ve been pleased with all the faculty and students. The faculty has really joined to- gether to make it work. The college has seven de- partments: Allied Health Professions, Consumer Ser- vices, Food and Nutrition, Health and Physical Educa- tion, Home Economics Edu- cation and Nursing and Safe- ty Sciences. Many students take advan- tage of the internship pro- grams in government and consumer agencies, major ho- tel chains, companies like IBM and hospitals. Other than internships, stu- dents also participate in jobs on campus which prepare them for their careers. The Allenwood Cafeteria, located in the basement of Acker- man, and the daycare center, also in Ackerman, provide real-life settings for stu- dents. They receive hands-on experience and I UP benefits too, according to Dean Wingard. The students are doing great work. Those two facili- ties wouldn ' t be successful without them. Ackerman Hall, the new Sally B. Johnson Hall, Zink Hall and the Memorial Field House house the 13 majors in the college. Ackerman and Johnson Halls are the only two buildings on campus which don ' t allow smoking. We feel this is a good way to promote good health, said Dean Wingard. In addition to this goal of promoting good health, the college also wants to prepare students in the best way for their career choice. The col- lege has a 90 percent employ- ment rate.

The purposes of this col- lege include problem solving, introducing sci- entific techniques, giving a sense of perspective in the development of the sciences, and to give in- sight to the community of its scientific rules and regulations. The seven departments in the college are Biolo- gy, Chemistry, Computer Science, Geoscience. Physics, Psychology and Mathematics. Depending on the pro- gram, students may earn a bachelor of arts, a bachelor of science, or a bachelor of science in education. The College of Natu- ral Sciences and Mathe- matics enrolls 1700 stu- dents. The largest departments in the col- lege are Computer Sci- ence, Biology and Psychology. The college compares quite favorably with oth- er colleges in the coun- try, stated Dr. Charles Fuget, dean of the col- lege. We are always try- ing to improve our de- partments to help to e nhance the students ' education. In addition to their regular curriculum, stu- dents in the college have the opportunity to partic- ipate in cooperative agreements with other outstanding institutions. Students may work with other universities such as Jefferson Medical Col- lege, Drexel University, the University of Pitts- burgh and the Marine Science Consortium. This gives students first- hand experience in their future occupation, ac- cording to Dean Fuget. — Lesley Holton Douglas Macek 88 Academics isni tmss mm mim mmn Opposite Page Bottom left A light at the er d of the aisle?

The college offers under- graduate degrees in all three of its departments: art, music, and theater. The bachelor ' s degree pro- gram is loosely structured to allow students to construct their own major, according to Donald G. Eisen, interim dean. Students can construct their major by choosing three of the following: dance, communica- tion services, music, theater and art. A bachelor ' s in education in music or art is also offered along with a master ' s in the same subjects. Beginning next year, a master ' s of fine arts will be offered in art. A variety of events are of- fered to the entire campus and the Indiana community. The music department is be- ginning a series of recitals, open to the public, in Gorcll Recital Hall. Along with providing art ex- hibits for Kipp Gallery, the college is also responsible for the University Museum in Sut- ton Hall. Eisen said that lUP is the only college of 14 in the state system with a museum. The college has also been busy with changes and con- stuction. The former dean. Dr. J. Christopher Benz, left in August and the college is now looking for a new dean. A new program in the music, theater and dance majors is also being planned. According to Eisen, the biggest initiation this year is the renovation of Waller, which they have been waiting for for 10 years. Construction is hoped to be completed by 1990. The renovation of the music library on the third floor of Cogswell was another project. The library is part of Stapleton Library. Eisen added that there is also a long-range discussion going on about expansion and reorganization of the college. — Maryann Koknchak 90 Academics Opposite Page Top right: A peaceful Kipp Gallery Middle left: Any requests? | Middle right: Now if 1 move this over to here ...

They are smaller than lUP but bigger than a bread box. They are both located within 30 miles of Indiana.

It offers graduate level courses and a certification in real estate un- der the School of Continuing Education. Punxsutawney ' s campus of- fers an associate degree in Criminology, as well as on in the field of Business. This cam- pus has a student enrollment of over 200.

In fact, of the over one hundred schools that currently offer their students a military sci- ence program, lUP finishes in the top fifteen percent. The program at lUP is de- signed to provide the students with new experiences, as well as teach them important quali- ties. From military science, students learn cooperation, honesty and responsibility. They also develop self-confi- dence, learn to obey orders and respect authority figures. Stu- dents participate in a variety of activities such as repelling, marksmanship, water survival, self-defense, orienteering and small unit tactics. These activi- ties test the students both phys- ically and mentally, helping the students to develop into well- rounded individuals. Students at lUP do not elect military science simply to ful- fill their physical education re- quirements; they also elect it for the financial benefits. There are a variety of scholar- ships available for students choosing military science. These two, three, or four year scholarships are awarded to qualified students on a compet- itive basis with awards at lUP of up to $ 1 2,500. Each scholar- ship helps the students to pay tuition, educational fees, and provides the students with funds for textbooks, supplies and equipment. Students also find that after college, their participation in military sci- ence is beneficial to them in the job market. The practical experience that the students gain from military science in leading peo- ple and being responsible for money and equipment gives them an edge in the job mar- ket. When competing for a top management position or pro- motion. Military Science grad- uates have a better chance. Students here on campus have nothing but praise for lUP ' s Military Science pro- gram. Freshmen who originally joined ROTC to eliminate their physical education re- quirements now excitedly await their next semester of Military Science. — Crystal Turner Cynthia Carmicklc Cynthia Carmickle 96 Academics Jim Wakcndd Opposite Pag e Top right: Th e name speaks for itself.

Debates were raised over the possibility of installing as- troturf in Miller Stadium. Ath- letic director Frank Cignetti began conducting a fund-rais- ing effort for the over one-mil- lion-dollar project. Athletics Editor The new lUP identity pro- gram took a slice out of the Big Indian nickname, cutting the recognized name to Indians. The term Lady Braves was also eliminated because of gender confusion. Another change in the ath- letics department was associate director of athletics Ruth Pod- bielski ' s retirement at the end of this year. Podbielski was in- strumental in the development of many of the sports teams and will be missed by the many people who have had the op- portunity to work with her. . r  Thad Meckley I , Above: Junior Chris Lang checks his time in the PSAC gits M«ce championships.

A Year Of Accomplishment lUP ' s football program has set traditional goals for themselves: -a winning season -the PSAC Western Confer- ence title -the PSAC Championship -the Lambert Trophy (given for domination in Eastern Division II football), -a bid to NCAA ' s playoffs -a National Championship This season the Indian squad accomplished thre e of these goals. They were 9-2 on the season. They captured the PSAC Western Conference ti- tle for the second consecutive year. And, they won the PSAC championship in a 20-6 victory over West Chester, a signifi- cant win for lUP because it was the first time they had won the title on the playing field. Regretfully, the Indians were ignored by the NCAA playoff committee, despite an outstanding season. A major factor in this decision may have been I LP ' s 21-13 loss to region rival Towson State. ... Our season was successful because of ... lUP started its season against Division I-AA Buck- nell, losing 23-7. This loss was attributed to four key turn- overs that occurred at the wrong time. Game two was more success- ful, as the Indians defeated Northwood 41-21. They over- came a 14-3 deficit early in the game to secure the victory. In game three of the season the team struggled to a 21-20 victory over Kutztown, like the first game turnovers played a role in the scoring against the Indians. But the game featured explosive running plays that gained 217 yards on 52 carries. Senior Scott Stillmak led the attack with 1 13 yards. Against Edinboro in game four the I UP passing attack fi- nally got on track scoring a 28- 10 victory. Senior Bob Kiel passed for 242 yards, setting a 79.27 completion percentage record. The rushing game was also active with freshman Paul Palamara scoring four touchdowns. 7 ?.: Tt , S Aj |: TyMf Wg J kiiiMkmmm. miwmimm £S s ILP Sports Information The I9S6 Football team: From row— Bob Bunak, Chris Bache.

The game was highlighted by a strong de- fense that kept the Golden Ea- gles on the low end of the score. In game six, ILP trounced Lock Haven 49-14, in an aim- sot error-free contest for the Indians. Travelling to Shippensburg for game seven, ILP scored a 31-14 victory. In this game. I UP had 466 yards of offense, including Kiel ' s 263 yards of passing, plus four touchdowns. The Indians hosted Califor- nia for Parent ' s Day in game eight. In the 39-0 ILP victory, the defense dominated and the offense came up with a big day as well. They totalled 189 yards rushing and 310 yards passing. This win clinched the PSAC Western Title for the Indians. The final two games were hard for the Indians. In game nine, they fought their way to a 14-9 win over Slippery Rock. However, they could not get by Towson State in their regular season closer. lUP lost this key game 21-13, a loss that was at- tributed ultimately to turnovers. When asked about his teams season, head coach Frank Cignetti said. I believe our season was successful be- cause of the players, particu- larly the outstanding seniors who provided talent and lead- ership; the assistant coaches who helped to develop the players to their maximum po- tential; and the support ser- vices such as managers, train- ers and field staff. The team acquired many post-season honors from orga- nizations ranging from PSAC West All-Stars to the Kodak Corporation. In all sixteen players received over 40 awards or special recognition honors, these players were: se- nior Jim .Angelo. senior AI Ar- risher, senior Chris Bache, se- nior Bob Burak, senior Scott ByerK, sophomore Frank Cig- netti Jr., sophomore Dean Contrill, sophomore Tom Fad- koe, sophomore Steve Girting, senior Bob Kiel, senior Doug Niesen, junior Darel Patrick, freshman Rex Pynos, senior Rick Radatovich, junior Paul Thompson and senior Neil Ziegler.

East Stroudsburg 1-0 Saturday morning in a consolation game. The game for our players was a mentally tough one be- cause we lost a 1-0 decision to them in double-overtime earli- er in the season. The players didn ' t want to lose again, and each person had to know what to think and what to do so we could win, Montgomery said as they closed their season with a win and a loss. Yet, in a way the glorious season did not really come to a close. Instead, the lUP team went to attain a final national ranking of 1 6th, having gone as high as 1 3th and no lower than 20th during the year. Mont- gomery, having coached the team for the past nine years, remarked that this was the first time I UP was ever ranked nationally. Plus, the team reached a regional ranking as high as fourth and finished at a respectable si.xth, but being ranked regionally was another first ever for an (UP team. Also, yet another honor was bestowed upon the 1986 ILJP field hockey team. Two players were awarded All-Conference status, juniors Donna Walker (forward) and Molly Burke (halfback), while senior Terri Sacchetti (link) got honorable mention laurels. Montgomery said, That ' s pretty special since only 1 5 are named (to the All-Conference team) with eight in Division 111 alone be- ing selected from the Division I and III teams, and then having Things just clicked. one of the six honorable men- tion titles given out also. And, that speaks very highly of us, she added, considering lUP competes in such a strong con- ference and gicves out scholar- ships as in Division I. We really had a team, Montgomery said. There wasn ' t a superstar out there as in past seasons where players have tried to outshine each other — things just clicked. Leading the offensive charge. Walker tallied 22 goals along with senior Laurie Parker at 10, sophomore Becky Hit? (link) at four and fresh- man Becca Joyce (forward), Sachetti and sophomore Wen- dy Groeneveld (forward) at three each. Hitz and sophomore Kim Si- mon (link) led the way in as- sists with 10 and II, respec- tively, while senior Carol Alarie led the I UP defense, which allowed only 3 1 goals all season. But, with the gradua- tion of only three seniors — Alarie, Parker and Sacchetti — and the loss of two others — Hitz, who is transferring, and Joyce, who is out for the 87 season due to injuries — next year ' s team looks as if it has the means of an equally suc- cessful year. Montgomery will be looking for her talented JV team to keep the ball rolling next year as lUP opens with a newly scheduled pre-season tourna- ment in Lancaster. This event, which I UP has been on the waiting list for the past five years, draws teams from Penn- sylvania and New Jersey. - T.S.

In addition to winning the division, seven players — Todd Hammond, Owen DoughertN and the entire defensive unit, consisting of Frank Paz, Rich Belts, Danny Gehers, Scott Russell and goalie Jeff Paint- er — were named to the WPISC All-Star Team. Three players — John Sharkey, Paz and Hammond — made the PSAC Conference team and, to finish off their star-studded season, Paz and Hammond were named All-Americans.

The next two games typified lUP ' s frustrating season, al- though the Indians won both matches. Against Westminster and WVU, the Indians outshot each squad 30-2, but managed only four goals on the 60 shots as I LP defeated both oppo- nents by a narrow 2-0 score. Our best games as a team were against WVU, Robert Morris, Gannon and UPJ. Celtnieks said. . ' Ml in all, we didn ' t pla bad this year, and we just didn ' t connect on our chances. If you look, we had many players who were recognized for their talents. I think they deserve it and it says a lot for our team. Most of the guys were defensive players, includ- ing our goalie. I think we had one of the best defenses in the conference. Hammond led lUP with six goals and four assists. Trailing closely was behind Sharkey with five goals and five assists and Dougherty with five goals and four assists. With six seniors graduating, strong play and leadership will be needed from Painter, Rus- sell.

In her debut, Benzoni, still injured, managed to place sixth with a time of 18:23. It was unbelievable that she did so well in her first meet back from being injured, Fry said. The team went on to the Paul Short Memorial Race, where many Division I schools were present, coming in eighth place. Penn State won the meet with 70 points, and Princeton. Maryland, Cornell and West Virginia made up the top five. ILP was the first Division II school that placed in the top ten. Despite this Division I competition, Donnelly still captured the event with a new course record of 16:54.3. Instead of attending the West Liberty Invitational, the team chose to participate in the Kent State Invitational, which again would highlight many Division I teams. If you want to be the best, sou must compete against the best. Frv said. So that ' s what the team did. but in turn gave up a first-place finish, losing onh to power- house Division 1 Ohio Lniver- sity. which scored only 34 points. ILP was second with 51. Donnelly, as usual, broke the course record with 17:42, but this time she added a little fiair to it, breaking it b one minute. Finally the time came for the post season meets. ILP cap- tured the first important one, the PS.AC championship meet for the fourth consecutive year, with 37 points. They beat Ship- pensburg, once again. Slippery Rock. Kutztown and .Millersville. Donnelly, Sophomore Patti Kinch, Benzoni, Sophomore Sara Bonaccorsi and Pickering were all in the top 15, gaining All-State honors. ILP then won the NCAA Division II Northeast Regional meet for the past two years. They won with 91 points, beat- ing Springfield, Army, Navy and .Millersville. At Nationals, the team placed 1 1th oit of 12 teams with Cal. Poly Slo. winning the meeting for the fifth consecu- tive year. We have a young team, and I think they just got scared in this important meet, Fry said. 108 Athletics Confusing Regional Meet Highlights Season Confusion at Regionals, a 13th place finish at Nationals and a returning All-American were highlights of the 1986 men ' s cross country season. At the NCAA Division II Northeast Regional meet, 35 teams gathered at Philadelphia Textile to race for three to five bids for Nationals. The confusion occured at the 4.5 mile mark of the lOK (6.2 mile) race. An official misdirected the first two run- ners, with approximately 50 more runners following them in the wrong direction. This mis- direction caused the group to run an extra 1 .3 miles. While these leading runners were lost, the remaining 150 runners took the correct route. The results were off balance to say the least. For example, lUP ' s Tom Doran, an All- American in ' 85, was in eighth place before he was sent the wrong way; he ended up 130th after he found his way back onto the correct path. Angry was the mildest emo- tion expressed by both coaches and runners alike. Officials ended up declaring the race ... We belonged at Nationals. no contest, and ILP, Edin- boro, Keene State, Lowell and Southern Conneticut were giv- en the bids for the Northeast region for the NCAA contest in Riverside, Cal. In an interview with the Penn following the confusion, lUP ' s men ' s cross country coa- ch Lou Sutton said, There ' s no doubt in my mind that we belong at Nationals. We were right there at the regional and would have qualified if things had gone right. Once in California the Indi- ans placed 13th with 31 points. Edinboro won the event, scor- ing 56 points. Doran was lUP ' s top finish- er at Nationals in 49th with a 32;53. Junior Dave Williams was 56th (33:04). Senior John Flaherty was 75th (33:29), se- nior Mark Pedley was 91st (34:01) and senior Jeff Cole- man was 97th (34:12) to round II- P Sports Informjtion The I9g6 Uen ' s Cross Country icjm First row - Joe Crawley.

Bui the result was often the same as they posted a 7-4 overall record. lUP, under the leadership of head coach Jackie Albenzie, proved itself as a team filled with depth by consistently win- ning the No. 3, 4, 5 and 6 sin- gles and the No. 2 and 3 dou- bles positions. ' . . . A team filled with depth ... Although Albenzie juggled the starting line-up early on, players sophomore Kris Fruend, No. 2 singles; junior Linda Hanlon, No. 3 singles; and Lori Ludwig, No. 4 singles, consistently turned in victories. A pleasant surprise for the team came from junior Natalie Musci, No. 5 singles, who had the best seasonal record at 10- 1, and freshman Susan Crist at No. 6 singles. Natalie has played well all season long, Albenzie said. She had to prove at the begin- ning of the season that she could play in the No. 5 singles, and she has proven herself on the court. Musci looked to carry the momentum into the state tour- nament, Albenzie added. But, it was Crist who as- . They did their best ... tounded everyone by puttmg on a solid two-da perfor- mance and advancing to the finals of the No. 6 singles match-up, the only iUP player to do so this season. As a team, IUP took its 7-4 record into the state tourna- ment in Erie and came out fourth overall. I think everyone on the team played well, assistant coach Sue McCalmont said. I think they all felt satisfied that thev did their best. IL ' P Sporls Information 1986 Women ' s Tennis: From row — Linda Hanlon.

Junior Sue Sippel, in her first full season of play, had the pressure of playing No. I sin- gles and faced the best that teams had to offer. According to Albenzie, Sue grew into playing first singles, despite suffering some losses early in the season. Sue can play at that caliber, Albenzie added. The doubles team for IUP also saw their share of wins. especially when junior Wendy Eckard and Hanlon combined their talents in the No. 2 dou- bles matches. Likewise, senior team cap- tain Cathy Crumrine teamed with Ludwig to post a winning season, but fell short at States by dropping a decision to Lock Haven in the opening match. The season had gone basical- ly as expected, Albenzie said. Two of the victories that stand out were the wins over Shippensburg and Lock Haven. The win over Lock Haven avenged last year ' s loss which was decided in the third set tie- breaker in the No. 2 doubles match. But, IUP left no doubt this season as it took 6 out of the 9 matches, . gain. it was the No. 3, 4, 5 and 6 singles positions combined with the No. 2 and 3 doubles teams that spelled victory. - Louie Estrada Women ' s Tennis IUP Clarion OPP 9 9 Slippery Rock 6 Lock Haven 3 9 St. Francis 4 Edinboro 5 6 9 Pitt Dusquesne 3 3 Allegheny 6 5 West Liberty 4 IUP Invitational- 3rd m 6 West Liberty wvu 9 IUP Invitational-2nd Season Record: 7-4 Top: Will the ball slip through the block?

We were training for mental excellence Led by second-year head coach Kim Johnson, the team may have been only 15-18 go- ing into the PSAC West cham- pionships but they emerged victorious — defeating Califor- nia, Clarion, Edinboro and Slippery Rock. Winning the title was the highlight of the nelters season according to Johnson. We were training for men- tal excellence and it peaked at the PSAC West, Johnson said. Three players — senior co- captain Lori Pfennigwerth, ju- nior Lisa Galassa and Louise Hathaway — were named to the All-West Team. Pfennigwerth was named the No. 1 hitter in the conference competition. Galasso was the top setter and Hathaway was No. 4 in the hitter category.

Uir ' T IT 114 Athletics Inconsistency And The Playoffs? I really have mixed emo- tions about this year ' s team, Coach Tom Beck said about the 1986-87 men ' s basketball team that ended its season with 14 wins and 1 3 loses. Without a doubt this was the most inconsistent team I ' ve ever coached, Beck said. One day we would play really well then the next day we would play poorly. Our worst fault was allowing too many turnovers to occur. That ' s how we lost most of the games that . . . We played an excellent game and beat them. we lost. Beck attributed this incon- sistent playing to the injuries and illnesses of the team mem- bers. Every pla er missed at least one practice due to the flu. a sprained ankle or some other mishap. It was frustrat- ing for the whole team. But fortunately the team did achieve one of their goals — making the conference play- offs. The team was also runner- up in the Christmas tournament. I was thrilled to be chosen. One of the most outstanding wins for the ILP squad though came against Gannon University. Gannon won the national Division II title this year. But, during the season we played an excellent game and beat them, Beck said. Many outstanding players made up I LPs 86-87 team.

But, they don ' t have to re- cruit for all new talent with un- derclassmen Matthews and Danny .Michaels returning as key hopefuls for next year, ac- cording to Beck. Mike is the best player in the conference, Beck added, while Danny will be a strong player and our tallest at 6 feet 7 inches.

Bottom The opening of yet another game — a win for ILP Combined Efforts Equals Success The 1986-87 women ' s bas- ketball team did not fare as well as first-year head coach Jan Kiger had liked, but they did establish themselves as a team with speed, determina- tion and a quick-strike offense. The only limitation to the team was its size. With a start- ing lineup that measured 5 ' 10 . 5 ' 8, 5 ' 6 , 5 6 and 5 ' 5 , the Indians relied on their quickness, which got them off to a good start at the Kutztown Tournament at the beginning of the season. We were mentally set, and we had the talent. Despite being seeded last, lUP managed to take second in the tournament and defeat- ed a highly respected Philadel- phia Textile. Last season, Philadelphia Textile had been in the final four, but they were not as strong as they had been, Kiger said. I think it gave us a false sense of confidence. The Indians found them- selves playing their best at their own Christmas Tree Tournament in January, ac- cording to Kiger. Their first place finish was the first ever by an lUP team. We were mentally set, senior captain. Sue Brecko said, and We had the talent. Credit for the wins went to the leadership of seniors Sandy Dowdy, Leslie Padvano and leading season scorer Brecko. The three seniors will be missed, but players juniors Pat- ti Connaghan, Margo Hinton and Aimee Gorda, all of whom saw playing time, will return That game was great because it was home, and we won . . with invaluable experience. One of the hardest problems that ILP will face will be re- placing Brecko at guard. IL P Sporh Informjnon The 1986-87 women ' s baskelball team (uniform): Back row — Head coach Jan Kiger.

Among these of averaging 17 points per game and past the 1,000 point mark in the season, was named to the conference All-Star team. I think some of the girls were too dependent on Sue, Kiger said. If we were falling behind they ' d pass it to her, and if she wasn ' t hitting on that day, well, we were in trouble. Connaghan also had a re- cord-breaking season by be- coming the all-time leader in assists while at one point, Hin- ton and Connaghan at guards had shared the top honors. The three guards combined with Gorda ' s rebounding at center made the team seem un- beatable, as in its victory over conference-rival Edinboro. That game was great because it was home, and we won by so many points, Brecko said. But, division foes such as Slippery Rock University took advantage of lUP ' s lack of height and went 3-0 with them this season, which prevented the Indians from moving into the playoffs. Kiger explained that this season will be built upon, and key players will be looked on are juniors Laura and Leanna Santacroce, and sophomores Diana Rohaus and Robyn Snyder. This season was a good base for underclassmen, in- cluding myself, and next year we will be refining with the added height, Gorda said, adding, Our record also should show our playing ability much better. — Louie Estrada 1986-87 Women ' s Basketball P Kutztown Tournament Philadelphia Text New York Tech.

That ' s how the 1986-87 lUP men ' s swimming and diving team can best be characterized. While lUP may not be a Di- vision II contender like Clarion or Shippensburg, the team made its presence known throughout the season with its culminating success being achieved at the PSAC meet. From day-one back in early September things looked promising with the skills and talents of 17 returning veterans and the added depth of 13 rookies, under fourth-year head coach Dave Watkins. Soon after the annual Ma- roon and Slate mecl. I UP took ... one of the best teams ever ... third at the lUP-Clarion Re- lays at Clarion, opening the 86-87 season. Next, lUP opened its dual meet season at home with an impressive 122-90 win over the Westminster Titans, and con- tinued its victory course as it easily outdistanced first-year foe Frostburg State of Mary- land, 11 6-60 just before break. With the change in pace from closing first semester ac- tion against Fairmont, the In- dians cruised their way down to Plantation, Fla., just outside of Ft. Lauderdale, to do some in- tense Xmas break training in preparation for a tough second semester line up. Returning from Florida Jan. 15 to Indiana, the team began preparing for its meet against the Bloomsburg Huskeys on the 17th just a few hours after their arrival. And, as expected, the Indians easily defeat Bloomsburg (118-72) as a number of rookies came through with personal bests to compliment the few individual races swum by the veteran swimmer along with the per- formances of lUP divers-se- nior Eric Speakman and soph- omore Dan Williams.

Williams set the team record on the three-meter (488.93 pts.) while Mutan set the pool record (595.65 pts.) on the same board. And, Etter set a new one-meter mark (568.95 pis.). All three thereby secured berths at Nationals. Back on the winning trail, lUP posted a 1 15-97 victory over the Fighting Scots of Edinboro, bringing its record to 4-2. One week later, at the Alumni Senior Recognition meet, the Indians scored an avenging 111-92 win over the Fairmont State of W. Va. Falcons. Finally, the team ended its dual meet season on the road with a 1 15-93 victory over the Slippery Rock Rockets. And, juniors Scott Nagel and Chris Lang showed their dominance in their respective events- the 400-yard IM and the 200-yard butterfly- as they each set new SRU pool records. With a 6-2 season record, 1 7 guys and two coaches, and a great deal of determination, lUP ' s ' 86-87 PSAC team went on to secure themselves as be- ing one of the best teams ever in lUP swimming and diving history. One conference champ and record, one conference runner- up, seven new school records and four national qualifying swims were amongst the PSAC highlights as lUP took a very respectable third with 232.5 pts. behind Clarion (628 pts.) amd Shippensburg (431 pts.). But, as the season closed for most, the excitement continued as Nagel received All-Ameri- can status with his 11th place in the 400-yard IM while Wil- liams, Simpson junior Ken and senior Matt Hrdlicka placed in the upper half of the three-me- ter diving, lOO-and 200-yard breastrokes, and the 100-yard breastroke, respectively. — Thad Meckley Men ' s Swimming Diting ILP Opp Cbrion Relays— 5lh 122 WcslminstLT 90 116 ( roslburg ■at l 72 Bloomsburg 118 93 Shippensburg 117 97 Clarion 132 115 111 Edinboro Kairmont 97 92 115 Slippery Rock 93 PS.AC ( Edinboro)— 3rd Season Record: 6-3 Top.

The tension mounted as the relay teams took their positions with the men ' s team arriving to add to lUP ' s support. The electronic beep sound off, and the women raced on to pull out second and third to win the meet. High with excitement from their last win. I UP performed some impressive feats in its loss to Clarion, bringing down three school records.

These are the words of ILP gymnastics coach Dan Kendig on the gymnastics team ' s per- formances this year. It seemed as though they were just putting in time, he said. We had very little quali- ty-time practices this year. Despite the lack of quality in some instances, the team man- aged to capture both the Penn- sylvania Conference and Southeast Regional champion- ship meets for the fourth and third consecutive times, respectively. Then the team advanced to the national meet, sponsored this year by the Lnited States Gymnastics Federation after NCAA dropped the Division II program. They were seeded fifth out of eight but finished seventh. Sophomore Dina Car- rieri became an All-American on vault while sophomore Lori Hankemeyer earned the honor on vault and beam. There were quality individ- ual performances, Kendig said. But there wasn ' t enough consistency in those performances. don Y like to say ' what if . . . What sparked this non-com- mittal attitude? I think because we ' ve been so successful in the past that the girls felt they didn ' t have to work as hard, Kendig said. They never went beyond or above. It ' s tough to win perfor- mances anything that way. The lack of quality practices and performances weren ' t the only problems. Injuries bit some of the girls this year. The major one attacked Rose John- son, a freshman from Toms River, N.J. She was the top all- arounder in the beginning of the season right before her in- jury at the George Washington Invitational She fell from the high bar during her bar rou- tine. The injury forced her to a three-week bed rest and total abstination from gymnastics for the rest of the season. John- lUP Sports Information The 1986-87 Gymna tics learn: Kneeling Ton a Kuslaborder.

What ifs are (9.5), floor (9.3) and all- sour grapes. There aren ' t any around (36.8) records previ- answers, it just happened like ously in this year. Two weeks later, when the team was finally getting over Johnson ' s injury and loss to the team. Henkemeyer, lUP ' s top all-arounder at the time sprained her ankle while warm- ing up prior to the West Vir- ginia meet. It was so tough because the girls were just putting things together, Kendig said. And then Lori got hurt, Henkemeyer was out for the next three weeks until the PSAC meet. The fans couldn ' t tell she had been injuried as she swept top honors in the all- around, vault and floor exercises. Two weeks later sophomore Susan Wahl, one of I LP ' s Ail- Americans last year, landed on her knees during her double back trick on the floor routine at the state championships. That injury lasted for two weeks. Would things have been dif- ferent without the injuries? I don ' t like to sav ' what if, that. Next year, we ' ll learn from this. How well we learned will show up next year when we start working out. As a coach, I really can ' t put that desire and determination in the girls. I can ' t control that. They need to find that out themselves. Hopefully, they will over the summer. - Kenna Belgie Gymnastics lUP 167.5 Pitt 3rd Aut 4lh Geo 3rd Auburn Georgia Col 4ih George Washington Invit. 165.65 Kent State 170.20 West Virginia 170.75 Clarion 3rd Eastern Mich.

Pod Retires Following 32 Years Of Service The only women interested in sports are tomboys. Men ' s sports bring in the money. No- body wants to see women attempting to play basketball. Women should be in home ec. and teaching clubs, but not sports. These were some of the attitudes Ruth Podbielski had to face and overcome when she began her career in 1955 as an asso- ciate professor. Pod, as she is better known, surpassed those attitudes and made the lUP wom- en ' s sports program one of the best in the area. I ' m proud to say we have one of the most comprehensive programs in this area, Pod said. She was honored at a dinner in Febru- ary, 1987, after her retirement, as asso- ciate athletic director, in January. Presi- dent Welty presented Pod with the certificate of appreciation in recognition of her dedicated service to I UP through- out the past 32 years. In addition to receiving gifts and testi- monies from friends and co-workers. Pod got a special surprise — a Podbielski En- dowment Scholarship was established in her honor. From playdays to championship var- sity teams Pod has given lUP the expertise and love she has for sports. Playdays were lUP ' s answer to wom- en ' s sports. Ten students from I UP would meet other teams from the area. One girl from each school would make up a team. While she attended college at Slippery Rock Teachers College (now Slippery Rock University), Pod participated in intramurals. I appreciated that experience, and I wanted to provide it for students at I UP. Volleyball, basketball, field hockey, badminton, table tennis and softball were the first women ' s intramural sports The first year I set up a basketball tournament between the girls playing in- tramurals. I had 13 teams competing. That was a lot of students considering our enrollment was only 1600. This turnout proved to Pod that women students at lUP were interested in sports. We learned in physiology that ' that which is used develop and that which is not used atrophies ' , which applies to both men and women. Society has been critical of women in athletics in the past, but the barrier is being broken. After scheduling a few games with other college teams. Pod began club sports for women at I UP. They played Carnegie Mellon and Seton Hall m their 8-10 team scheduled season, according to Pod. In the early 60s I did receive some money for the sports, but we still had fun- draisers. If I had a nickle for every ham sandwich I made then, I ' d have a nice retirement trip. Those sandwiches paid off though, in 1971 basketball, fencing, tennis and vol- leyball became varsity sports. Field hockey was added in 1972 and gymnastics in the following year. Beginning in 1977, swim- ming, track field, softball and cross country were added one per year. I am so thankful for all those in the athletic department throughout the years. I couldn ' t have done it without those people. Her love for sports gave her the inicia- tive to work for lUP women ' s sports, mak- ing her dreams become reality. But, Pod thinks that although her feelings for sports have not changed that many of the women i n sports today have a different initiative. We all liked to play sports for the in- trinsic value that the sport gave us. I think don ' t feel students play for competing any more. They play for extrinsic rewards. They don ' t play to meet people and chal- lenge their skills against others, instead, they ' ve worrying about a new uniform ev- ery other year. They ' ve lost that feeling of the real joy of competing. The changes that have occured with bet- ter equipment, scholarships, better trained coaches and more space to play have helped the athletes but they ' ve also taken athletes away from the true meaning of sports, according to Pod. One thing that has stayed the same is that the women participating in sports are students first, then athletes. From day one we have checked grades at the end of each semester to make sure everyone was doing okay. If we ' d find one who ' s average was under 2.0 we ' d bring her in and try to help. We ' d suggest sum- mer school to bring up her Q.P.A. lUP ' s women athletes have an overall average of 2.7 and a 95% graduation rate. This shows where our efforts are, Pod added. I UP women ' s sports have come a long way since the days of tomboys and home ec attitudes. Pod used her love for sports to help bring lUP where it is. The effect Pod had on lUP athletics will live on through the students, faculty and fans forever. - Lesley Holton 128 Athletics Cynthid Carmickic Fencers Experience ' ' Different Season Of the three fencing teams, only the JV men ' s team had a winning record in 1987, going undefeated for the entire season.

All the Indians had to do on April 30 was sweep a double- header against Lock Haven to clinch second place in the Western division earning a spot in the playoffs. Before the playoff games started, three seniors- Mar- ken, Van Newkirk and Mike Meyer — were honored for their contributions over the years. Then, the games began. Four runs in the third inning of game-one was all junior, pitcher Mike Sobota needed as lUP cruised to the first win, 6- 3. In the second game, Bedil- lion pitched a one-hitter and led I U P to a 6-0 victory to gain second place. Four teams met at Shippens- burg to determine who would become state champs: 1 1 P, Mansfield, Shippensburg and SRU. The four would partici- pate in double-elimination play starting May 8. lUP looked as though it would bow out early as it dropped its first game to Mansfield 6-3, but shutout- pitching by Sobota in game- two dropped SRU and pitted the Indians against Mansfield in a rematch. lUP got the better of Mans- field this time as it romped to an 18-6 win as sophomore Scott Rhodes contributed four hits.

Donnelly placed sixth in the 10,000 me- ter run to earn Ail-American status once again (she was the NCAA Division II Champion in this event in 1986). Her lime for the race was 37:28.4. Schneider, a sophomore. placed seventh in the triple jump with a team record dis- tance of 40 ' 7V ' 2 and also re- ceived All-American status.

A person would have to be a sup- portive lUP spirit giver to allow themselves to be passed up the bleachers on the hands of the fans. Or to drop off an- other cheerleader ' s shoulders. Or to do a full split (not many of us can do that, can we ' ?). While thinking about lUP spirit the fans can not be over- looked, while they may not lump off someones shoulders. Many fans have probably left a football game with a sore throat after screaming at offi- cals ' calls. Or sat through a rainy baseball, Softball or track and field meet to support the athletes. .And with all the rain lUP gets — it takes a dedicat- ed spirit to be an I UP fan. — Cynthln Carmickic Aboic ILP Foolball fan-. cnjo anulhcr suctcsslul •.caxon n 1SIS6- A special note of thanks is extended to all the photographers, writers, coaches, athletes, Jim Devlin and the lUP photography staff for all their help in making this year ' s Sports section a success.

Six individuals made return appearances to this elite athlet- ic event as lUP . ' Ml- American veterans with senior Tammy Donnelly being the most deco- rated. Donnelly reached the es- teemed level by receiving All- American status for the third time in track, having won the Division II 10,000 meter run in Los Angeles in May ' 86. And, Donnelly was voted to the Aca- demic All-American At Large team by the College Sports In- formation Directory of Ameri- ca (CoSIDA), marking her fifth honoring for her scholas- tic acheivements. 1986 - graduate Kathy Ew- ing, a 1986 cross country All- .American, returned to lUP to join Donnelly as a track honor- ee.

Nagel finished a record-breaking sea- son with a 12th in the 400-yard individual medley at the Long Beach, Calif., meet, while Paz was voted in by the National Association of Soccer Coaches of America. Four of the remaing 10 ath- letes were members of the I U P Southeastern Regional title gymnastics team from the past two years. Two of them — soph- omore Gina Cover and sopho- more Susan Wahl — earned their status at the , ' ir Force Academy in Colorado Springs meet in ' 86. Cover tied for third place on the uneven bars while Wahl tied for sixth in the vault and fioor exercises. Having competed at the OshKosh, WI, meet in 87, sophomores Dina Carrieri and Lori Henkemeyer rounded out I LP ' s best represented team at the dinner. Henkemeyer took eighth on the balance beam while tying for fourth with Carrieri on vault. Next, the 1986 Pennsylvania Conference championship football team sent three play- ers to the awards ceremony. Senior Jim Angelo was select- ed to the Associated Press (AP) and Kodak College Divi- sion I first teams with seniors Al Arrisher and Troy Jackson being named as AP honorable mentions. Senior track and field partic- ipants Dave Maudie and Dave Medvetz posted first-time All- American standings. At the L.A. meet, Maudie placed fifth in the javelin, and Medvetz took fourth in the decathlon. Finally, senior soccer player Todd Hammond was also amoung the rookie All-Ameri- can athletes, who combined with the six veterans compiled 26 All-American awardees.

Who are these athletes you may ask? Well, perhaps you may have missed the few and infrequent articles in The Penn about them. But, these lUP student- athletes are a driving force, ac- complishing numerous success- es for lUP and the athletes themselves. They are . . . the participants of lUP ' s Intramurals and club sports. The lUP Intramural pro- gram, under the direction of Royden Grove and staff, had a very successful and competi- tive year. Among some of the high- lights included the Gang Green team of Rich Davis, Mike Donahue, Chris LaCroix, Ke- vin 1 ouis, Dave Louis, Tom Oldham and Mike Scherer winning the men ' s intamural swim meet with 73 popinls, topping Thcta Chi ' s 52 points, and then with the added help of Ron Feigles, Tim Poor and Wayne Sherback defeated Phi Sigma Kappa 7-4 for the men ' s intramural inner tube water polo crown. In women ' s intramural vol- leyball action, the Those Guys A.C. team of Georgeanne Dorsch, Lisannc Dorsch, Diane Marks, Lise Myers, Lynnc Summerback and Krista Yost battled with Future Tense A.C. for the title, taking the champi- . . . the only (PA) routine to make it to the finals ... unship with scores of 1 5- 1 3 and 17-15, And, in another close com- petition, the Outlaws Athletic Club of Mary Coe, Jean Fole , T o n V Martinez, Scott McCracken, Darin Singola and l.ynne Summer beat the Underdogs AC, 1070-1001. The club teams at iUP in- clude the .Apache Ice Hockey team, the IUP cyclists, the Equestrian team, the Judo club, the I U Pisces synchro- nized swimming team, the Rugby Football club and the men ' s volleyball club. While these clubs do not re- ceive any of the nearly $300,000 of the Athletic De- partment ' s budget, the Co-op board does help to alleviate some of the costs with the rest coming from fundraisers and the athletes themselves. For the IUP Apache Ice team, defenseman Chris Brown and goaltender Frank Cone were named to the West Penn College Association 1986-87 All-Star second team, topping off a season that ended in a semi-final loss to league run- ner-up Duquesne. As for the IUP cyclists, per- haps their season highlight came at the Fastern Collegiate Cycling Federation District Championships at Rensselar Polytechnic Institute in Tro), N.Y., when the five-member team placed seventh in a 44- school field. Cassic White led the team on to its 628 point total as she won the 20 mile lap mile event, sciiring 100 points for lUP ' s cause. Rob Schu- macher and Ross Barber also scored points while Ron Drop- cho and Doug Milliken round- ed out lUP ' s competitors lUP ' s Equestrian team trot- ted on to a number of respect- able placings this season, even taking the reserve champion ribbon at one of the Western Equestrian horse shows.

The IUP Rugy Football Club faired well this year, play- ing such e.xcitmg match-ups as the 13-4 of Juniata defeat on their Mack Park home field. Lastly, the IUP men ' s vol- leyball club brought home much glory this year as they placed second at the Eastern Regionals at Columbia Col- lege, New York, and were in- vited to Nationals at the Uni- versity of Texas in Austin after completing an undefeated sea- son. The club ' s captain. Jay Taylor, was named to the first All-Fast team, and co-captains Mike Darling and Jim Hartz were named second team selections. - T.S. Meckley ORGANIZATONS Involved What do lUP students do with their free time? Eat, sleep, study- but what else is available? Membership in one of the over 100 organi- zations available to students is a great outlet for spare time. This section shows only a slice of what ' s available to lUP ' s population. Everything from Judo to Big Brothers Big Sisters is offered to interested people. Organization membership is a good way to round out four years at lUP. Many groups can offer students professional con- tacts that are useful both be- fore and after graduation. Friendships between members are also a positive aspect of joining an organization. Getting involved, is the key to a rewarding future after leaving lUP-whether it be Judo or Big Brothers Big Sisters.

Orginally called the Hospi- tality Club established in 1976, the group adopted its present name in 1983, serving as an organization which brings food service and lodging majors together. Members get a chance to meet professionals in the indus- try. These professionals have spoken to the group about top- ics ranging from wine to Pizza Hut. The club participates in trade shows in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Monroeville ev- ery spring semester. Members set up a booth at these shows in order to inform companies about I UP and its food service and lodging department. Going to the shows also gives club members a chance to meet and talk with prospective employers. One of the club ' s major pro- jects on campus is helping with the Madrigal Feast held in the Blue Room every December. Each year members help re- create this multi-course Eliza- bethan Christmas Feast.

The group, which began with about 12 members, now has approximately 100 members. The company has three group levels: beginner, inter- mediate and advanced. These groups perform both separate- ly and together at the shows. Auditions were held for each group at the beginning each se- mester. There was also a four- member executive board, which is called the council, that teaches the beginner and intermediate groups. Semester shows were per- formed at Zink Theater and each of these were choreo- graphed by the students. The choreographers also had sepa- rate auditions for their numbers.

Those words repre- sent this year ' s council ' s basic goal. RHA is the student govern- ment for those living on cam- pus in our 13 residence halls. It is comprised of dedicated and active students who have a concern about the residence hall community of lUP. RHA serves as the unifying voice of all the residents and represents these students in matters con- cerning them. Mostly, RHA is known for its wide range of ac- tivities and programs for the students. Some of the building pro- grams involved formals, candy grams, jail-a-thons, speakers, sponsored nights at Steady Mick ' s, dating games, hall newsletters and many more fun programs. On a campus-wide level, RHA hosted a number of successful events. The year began with quad socials to welcome the fresh- men to lUP. Food, music and prizes were available to help the new students adjust to col- lege life and meet new friends. In October we constructed our fourth annual Haunted House in Whitmyer Hall. Over 700 people stood in line to get a good scare and donate money to the Alice Paul House and UNICEF. During finals week, RHA offered parents a chance to send their students a fruit basket. This year over 1000 residents received a nice fruity care package. In February, RHA held a Lip Sync contest to find an airband to sponsor in the SAMS ROCK-ALIKE. In late April, the second Tribal Wars tooks place which was an athletic competition between the halls with prizes, refresh- ments as well as a grand finale of a rock concert. Our RHA was an active member of the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF COL- LEGE AND UNIVERSITY RESIDENCE HALLS. lUP RHA received two regiona awards for the first time ever. The first was a program of the month for the freshmen quad social and the other was an outstanding member of the month that was awarded to lUP campus president, Kelly Barclay. -Kelly Barclay RHA a Bringing All The Campus Together 160 Org;wi7iHions RHA Opposite page, top photo.

No, not a flea market or a giant merchandise store: these items were all found at the 1986 lUP Homecoming Carnival. This year over 25 organiza- tions from both the university and the community, participat- ed in the sixth annual home- coming carnival. The carnival was held on October 3 and 4. and ran from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. both days. Each of the organizations were responsible for setting up their boothes in the huge tents dur- ing the homecoming festivities. And believe it or not. these or- ganizations had been signed up for six months in advance. Who organizes this event and the massive job of plan- ning it at least a half a year in advance? The lUP Alumni As- sociation and its administrative assistant Paula McGuire. McGuire was the first to come up with the idea for the carnival, which began in 1981. Originally, the carnival was supposed to be just food and games. It was supposed to give homecoming guests a place on campus to get a bite to eat and a chance to see campus organi- zations, said McGuire. All university recognized or- ganizations as well as commu- nity and non-profit organiza- tions are eligible to participate in the carnival. The huge rented party tents are a major expense of the event. They are brought in from .Akron. Ohio and are very costly according to McGuire. The administration wholely supports the events. They make sure money is in our budget for it (the tents, etc). There is more to the event than tents and organizations ' boothes. There is music and entertainment as well. Concert Dance has performed free of charge at the carnival many times. Professionals, like the Sweet .Adelines have also per- formed. Al the present time, McGuire is trying to make ar- rangements for a fashion show in the future. McGuire has a special vie of the event; it (the carnival) brings students, facults and the administration together with alumni. People get a view of the entire complex. The carni- val is a service to the Alumni. A special note to future alumni, however, the carnival may be moving from its tradi- tional spot between Sutton and Clark Halls. We d like to move it to a high traffic area, perhaps clos- er to Zink; so far everyone in- volved seems receptive to the change. -Cvnthia Carmickk Bill Mu i jc« The man different groups and clubs at lUP made our leisure hours memoral and this section is just a slice of smoe that enriched our lives. 162 Organizations Opposite page, top photo.

When the Mu Chi Chapter was founded at lUP in 1959, it was all male. Until five years ago, the women who pledged were intiated as little sisters. As a little sister, the women did not have the right to vote on chapter events. The chapter has come a long way in the past five yeras. Women ' s roles in the fra- ternity have greatly changed. It has taken four years for women to move up to positions of authority. It is definitely a unique organization just be- cause it has men and women working on the same level. It s the nature of the organization which helps to bring us togeth- er to work equally, said presi- dent Chervl Cronin. The fraternity was founded Dec. 16, 1925 at Lafayette College, Easton, PA. It was founded on the Boy Scout prin- ciples of friendship, leadership and service. The national office is in Kansas City, Missouri and its colors are blue and gold. The fraternity helps the local Boy Scout troop. Big Broth- ers Big Sisters and local chari- ties. Their biggest fundraiser each semester is the Book Ex- change. December 28-30, 1986 marked Alpha Phi Omega ' s National Convention. Much was learned about the fraterni- ty and how it works at the na- tional level. -Lynne Zoll Alpha Phi Omega members, left to right Row 1: Karen Anderson, Jackie Quader, Lisa Palamone.

In February 1924 at Northwestern Uni- versity, Phi Gam- J ma Nu, a profes- sional business fraternity was founded. Since that time, 93 collegiate and 10 alumni chap- ters have been chartered na- tionwide, including one at lUP. The organization has several purposes: to foster the study of business in colleges and univer- sities; to encourage high schol- arship and participation in ac- tivities; to promote profes- sional competency and achievement; and to further a high standard of business eth- ics and culture in civic and pro- fessional enterprises. lUP ' s chapter involves itself in a variety of community pro- jects each year; past examples include Vistors to the Aged, food bank and Christmas Stockings for the children at Indiana Hospital. The organization sponsors two business speakers per month, celebrates Founders ' Day and participates in region- al and national conventions. Each Year Phi Gamma Nu presents the Scholarship Key to the senior business major with the highest grade point average. The Scholar- ship Certificate is awarded to the chapter member with the highest grade point average. There is also the Phi Gamma Nu Scholarship Cup Award which is presented to the colle- giate chapter with the highest cumulative grade point aver- age for the current year. The lUP chapter has won the scholarship cup for the past six years. To become a member of the organization, the candidate must have a minimum QPA of 3.25. I enjoy the friendships that have formed since I ' ve been a member of Phi Gamma Nu, said Donna Brown. It ' s also helpful in obtaining profession- al contacts. - Cynthia Carmickle To Encourage Scholarship 59 Organizations 167 The Newman Center IUP ' s Newman Center was official- ly founded in 1968 with a three-fold purpose that still holds today. The three areas are (1) to provide a place for religious practice (2) to educate in mat- ters of faith and morals and (3) to open and maintain avenues of communication with the university. The Newman Center spon- sors many activities through- out the year. During Christmas they carol and have a special Christmas party for all those who wish to attend. They spon- sored a used book sale. They also hold special services dur- ing both the Christmas and Easter seasons. This year members of the Newman Center also put on a show called Oremus. that com- bined the music of Amy Grant, Sandi Patti. Michael W.Smith and other artists. The event was held in the Newman Cen- ter Lounge on May 2 and 3, 1987. The Newman Center is the presence of the Catholic Church on campus to help stu- dents, faculty and staff. said Father John Foriska, who was with the lUP Newman Center for four years before being re- assigned this March. Its very existence is because of the Uni- versity. We strive to promote a better understanding of the church in an academic atmo- sphere. We also strive to work with those members who have leadership qualities. We are here for anyone who needs friendship, comfort and a strengthening of their faith. -Cynthia Carmickle Above: The Newman Center staff. Row I- Sister Genevieve Martineck, Sister Susan Faz- zini.

Aside of competing in Na- tionals the club is also active in other events throughout the year. In September they con- duct a Swim Clinic for those students interested in Synchro- nized swimming. In November they have a Fall Show. During February and March they compete against other colleges and universities on state, re- gional and national levels. April concludes the swim- mers year with their Spring Show. This year the ILPisces season was extended until May because they were asked to do a command performance at Fox Chapel High School in Pittsburgh. Another highlight of this year was I L ' Pisces member Kelli Beichler being named Outstanding Synchronized Swimmer of the 1986-87 sea- son following the National competition. The award was based on leadership, placing well in competition and overall sportsmanship. We were pleased with our performance this year consid- ering that we lost nine swim- mers last year, said senior Leslie Cignetti.

Sigma Tau Gamma lost their university recognition and almost lost their house in the fall, as well as other legal problems. Kappa Sigma had legal troubles as well because of a few members. Sigma Nu even had a bomb thrown in their lawn. The Greeks also battled with the Penn. Editorials by Kerri Colvin, the Penn editor, at- tacked the Greek system on a semi-regular basis bringing an outcry from the Greek community. This year also signaled the start-up of dry rush and few fraternity parties- which were big changes from the past. The I UP Greek system is working to improve its image, and perhaps the bad press will stop in the future. I i. S Greek Editor Barbra Smergalski Above: The crowd empties dut of Tb. i ' ' ' ' ' ' teachers aflcr watching Greek Greeks 175 The Greek System . . . From Its humble beginnings at lUP more than 60 years ago, the Greek System has increased not only in its number of national organizations but in its activities on campus and in the community. Sometimes plagued with the image of partiers and fostering false friendships, the chapters have made an effort, particularly in the last year, to improve their image, emphasize their philanthropic work and strengthen their individual memberships. We are making a transformation from the 1950 ' s Animal House image to a legitimate corporate experience, Terry Appolonia, assistant director of student activities and organizations, said. Rush is now a part of marketing and pledging is a part of training. According to Dan Nichols, Interfrater- nity Council president, fraternities are like a business where younger members are en- couraged to get involved and develop their skills. Marta Braun, Panhellenic presi- dent, agreed with Nichols, noting that membership enhances organizational skills, leadership skills and the sense of accomplishing planned goals. Appolonia said although lUP Greeks have not achieved the sophistication of other institutions whose systems have been intact longer, chapter members have a great deal of dedication. lUP students have worked hard, and they don ' t take higher education or their Greek organizations for granted, he said. They are committed to what they are doing. This committment is evident as they seek out information from their national organizations and student activities and organizations on better rush techniques, activities, philanthropic ideas and ways to strengthen membership and campus involvement. Part of their committment to strengthen their chapters and the Greek System is apparent in the policies adopted in Panhel, IFC and the Black Greek Council. These three governing bodies, comprised of indi- vidual chapter representatives, are work- ing to unite the Greeks and remove the existing stigmas. Their goal has not been easily accom- plished and set backs have occurred, such as several chapters losing their charters and chapters placed on probation. Never- theless, the committment still exists. In the past year, the Panhel has changed sorority formal rush to the spring to in- crease underclass membership, IFC has installed dry rush and a new social policy, reducing alcohol consumption and distri- bution at fraternity events and the three 7 op.

According to Braun and Nichols, the Greeks are becoming more united, and this was demonstrated by a less competi- tive Greek Week and Sigma Chi Derby Days. Appolonia agrees Greek Week was a success, stating that Greek Sing entertain- ment was not only better but was well at- tended. He also said other accomplish- ments, such as the chartering of Alpha Chi Rho Fraternity and the 25th year of Kap- pa Delta Rho ' s Walk to Pittsburgh, raising $300,000 for Children ' s Hospital, Barbra Smergalski are commendable. Overall, Appolonia feels the chapters are doing well for their length of time on campus and are working to improve their image. I think the Greek chapter is a very high priority in the members ' lives and it satis- fies that which students are looking for in an out-of-class experience. They are work- ing hard to create a unified system. -Barbra Smergalski 176 Greeks Alpha Gamma Delta Cyntbu CMrmickle Unique Greek -L netie Ralhway The Alpha Gamma Delta Sorority, known as Alpha Gams, sponsored the Mr. lUP pageant in the fall semester.

In the fall, they came in third place with the brothers of Kappa Delta Rho for their BuUwinkle and Rocky float in the Homecoming parade, and they particpat- ed in Delta Gamma Anchor Clanker. Alpha Omicron Pi also sponsored the Sweetest Sweetheart Contest in October, which raised $400 for their philanthropy, the Arthritis Research Foundation. They also sponsored the winning contes- tant in the SAMS Rock-A-Like Contest and a finalist in the Mr. lUP pageant. In the spring, AOTT ' s were active with other Greek events, such as Greek Week. They came in third place in Greek Sing with the brothers of Theta Xi. They also took part in Sigma Chi Derby Days, Delta Gamma Beautiful Eyes Con- test and the Cutest Couple contest.

It is a sorority that con- siders public service a major aspect of its overall goal. One of Delta Sigma Theta ' s projects is an annual Halloween dance for children ages 3 to 1 1 from the Chevy Chase Com- munity Center in Indiana. This year the sorority sponsored its sixth annual dance, which included a dance contest, bobbing for apples and prizes for the best costumes in two categories: children ages 3 to 6 and 7 to II. Along the same lines, the sorority spon- sored its third annual Easter dance for the community center. The events included an egg hunt, a dance contest and bobbing for apples. In November, the members collected canned food for Children ' s Hospital and the Lemmington Home, both in Pitts- burgh. While at Lemmington, a home for the elderly, the members also fed and talked to the residents. In February, Delta Sigma Theta, spon- sored a writing contest and the film Eyes on the Prize to celebrate Black History month. -Lynne Todd Delta Sigma Theta Row .Cindy Buckson.

Also, they participated in a national telethon in Pitts- burgh, which raised money for Children ' s Miracle Network, and they made Easter baskets for the patients in Children ' s Hos- pital of Pittsburgh.

The girls put a lot of hard work and dedication into the sorority this year, Griffith said. We had some bad times in 1986, and everyone pulled together to make our sorority come together and pro- duce a lot of good work. She added that the other officers were a big help to her. They were: Vice President Nianh Caherly, Treasurer DeeDee Mc- Closkey, Pledge Trainer Chris Zack, Rush Chairman Carolyn Joyce, Recording Sec- retary Misty Dragano, Coordinating Sec- retary Julie Meanor and Panhelinic Rep- resentative Lori Ressor.

The Eta Omicron chapter of Sigma Chi has been on campus for a little more than a decade, but their chapter is a strong one, with 60 active members. The chapter be- gan as local Sigma Chi Delta in 1969, and received their national charter in 1973. The brothers participate in many cam- pus and community activities, including Delta Gamma Anchor Clanker, ASA ' s Spring Kick-off, Greek Week and Home- coming, as well as various intramural sports. Each Thanksgiving, the chapter sponsors a food drive which benefits the Indiana area Red Cross and Salvation Army. Each spring the chapter sponsors their annual fundraiser, Sigma Chi Derby Days, which benefits Camp Orenda, an area camp for mentally and physically handicapped children. The chapter also has the seond highest QPA on campus. Dan Nichols, a Sigma Chi brother, is the InterPraternity Council president. And these men can consider men the likes of John Wayne, Tom Sel- leck, David Letterman and Warren Beatty their brothers. The chapter has a lot to be proud of. But what makes them so unique? Chapter President Todd Ferguson summed the group up well, We ' re a group of individuals with different charac- teristics, ideas and attitudes who all share a common bond. According to Ferguson, that bond is de- veloped during pleding, and they stress re- sponsibility as the most important objec- tive in pleding. According to David Reesman, a broth- er, it ' s the diversity of interests, goals and personalities that make the chapter great. — Zanne Miller Barbra Smergalski Unique Greek — Tom Sinclair Row I: Jim Price, Rob Cerrebelli.

This common interest in athletics is evi- dent in the 57 members ' participation in Greek Week, Delta Gamma Anchor Clanker and Alpha Sigma Alpha ' s Hot Bod Contest. Theta Chi ' s motto Extend a helping hand is Titting f or the chapter. Their helping hand has extended to both the In- dian Haven Retirement Home, through the coordination of a benefit Powder Puff Football League, and to a liver recipient in Pittsburgh, through their organization of a volleyball marathon. The brothers raised a total of $300 for the above philanthropies. Theta Chi was founded on Campus Nov. 2, 1957. Their national headquarters is located in Trenton, N.J.

Ail frater- nities and sororities who appeared in the book were elegible to submit candidates, and the contestants appear on their organi- zation ' s pages. The winners were selected by a panel of judges from the Oak staff. None of the judges had any Greek affili- ations. We thank the candidates who participated and congrat- ulate the two winners, JoAnn Halmes and David Westerman. Alpha Omicron Pi JoAnn Halmes ' , most unique female Greek, favorite saying is Go For It, and when it comes to her years at lUP, that ' s exactly what she has done. JoAnn has not only participated in other Greek organizations ' activities but has done a lot in her own sorority. Alpha Omi- cron Pi. She has served as vice president pledge education, chapter relations chair- man, public relations chairman, Greek Sing chairman and participated or headed various committees, such as rush, pledge, special events and activities. In between all of her sorority activities, she worked as education chairman for Stu- dents Against Multiple Sclerosis (SAMS), SAMS recruitment committee, participat- ed in intramural volleyball and served as a student advisor. Along with these activi- ties, JoAnn worked in the Continuing Education Office. JoAnn Halmes Alpha Omicron Pi JoAnn also spent time volunteering at the Alice Paul House and the Latrobe Hospital. And despite her busy schedule, JoAnn ' s academic work did not suffer. She made Dean ' s List and received several scholar- ships including the Jednota Scholarship, Elk ' s National Scholarship, Wahr Schol- arship and the National Society of Ameri- can Education Scholarship. When asked what she has received from the Greek System, JoAnn said it has not only been the close friends she made in her own sorority but in other Greek organizations. I ' ve been given the chance to become more involved on campus, in the commu- nity and with people from other campus- es, JoAnn said. — Barbra Smergalski I9S Greeks Greek Winners . . David Westerman Phi Delta Theta Life is so hard when you have to and so easy when you want to. At least that ' s how most unique male Greek, Dave Wes- terman feels. Dave pledged Phi Delta Thcta in the fall 1984 and has been active in his fraternity ever since. Along with participating in many Greek functions, he served as presi- dent and pledgemastcr. Also, he was a del- egate to the 1986 Phi Delta Theta Interna- tional Convention in Toronto, Canada. But Dave ' s interests extended beyond the fraternity. He was senior class presi- dent, a member of the commencement committee, the senior steering committee and the student cabinet He also served on the executive board of the lUP Alumni Association. .And his hard work has received its rec- ognition In 1984 he was named Phi Delta Theta ' s Outstanding Pledge. Academical- I , O ly. his 3.61 QPA earned highest fraternity QPA, and he was a five-time Phi Delt academic achiever and made Dean ' s List for four consecutive semesters. Dave said that joining the Greek System has taught him a lot about himself and life. I have learned to live together with others, develop and sharpen leadership skills and deal with people, understanding their wants and needs, Dave said. But most of all, I feel I have made strong friendships that will last a lifetime, I be- lieve Phi Delta Thcta is a fraternitv for life. — Barbnt Smergalski Greeks 199 4 cc C uikm Delta Gamma pulled their anchor out of the water and planted it firmly in the ground for their first Anchor Clanker, Oct. 25. Anchor Clanker, a zany track and field event, involved more than 24 Greek orga- nizations and raised more than $500 to support the sororities philanthropies, Aid to the Blind, Sight Conservation and Edu- cational Grants and Loans. Participants warmed up with a 50 meter relay. Then they proceeded to the Ra ce of the Blind. Two members from each team participated. One of the runners was blindfolded and the other guided him down the lane, where the blindfolded per- son unwapped a piece of candy and ate it, ran through a line of cones and then the sighted person directed them on a piggy- back run to the finish line. Next, the fraternities and sororities competed in the Dragon Tail. The six- member teams hooked together and tried to steal a tail attached to the last person in each line. The event proved to be a challenge for all of the participants. The next event was the Conveyer Belt. The teams rolled over top of each other on the ground with the last person landing in a bucket of ice. The final event was a 20-minute scaven- ger hunt, which included a Mickey Mouse wrist watch and a red-haired, blue-eyed Cabbage Patch doll. The event also included the crowning of King Neptune, of Phi Delta Theta, and Queen Neptune, of Theta Phi Alpha. The overall winners of Anchor Clanker 1987 were Phi Delta Theta and Phi Mu. We were very pleased with the turn out and appreciated everyone ' s help in making our first Anchor Clanker a success, Tra- cy Boyd, who co-chaired the event with Cheryl Chrislianson. said. -Barbra Smergalski Barbra Smergalski Above: ATO atlempls to capture Lambda Chi ' s Dragon ' s Tail.

The event held Feb. 7 included dancing to DJ ' s Ron Theiss, WIUP, and Dave Jus- tin, WNQO. as well as several dance com- petitions including the limbo and twist. Prizes, donated by Indiana businessmen, were awarded to the winners. The first place organization received a $300 gift certificate from Mountain View Interiors of Greensburg, and the second place winner received a $100 certificate from Country Manor of Indiana. We received a lot of support from Greeks, especially the sororities, and other campus organizations, Michael Kessler, community relations chairman for the fra- ternity, said. -Barbra Smergalski Far left: They heard it through the grapevine.

Pratt Auditorium was packed, as the men flaunted their bodies. Rumor has it that one of the judges fainted. .-Xt the end of the event, Theta Xi s Jim Baker was crowned lUP ' s Mr. Hot Bod. The three day event was concluded on Sunday with field events. The 13 fraterni- ties participated in Crab Races, Pass Punt and the Mystery Event, which was a running relay that ended in a whipped cream pie. When all the points were tallied. Kappa Sigma took first place in the overall events.

A time of flowers in bloom, love in the air, and hundreds of girls in sorority letters running recklessly through the Oak Grove in search of ... . derbies??? It must be Derby Days! Sigma Chi raised more than $750 this year for Camp Orenda, a camp for physi- cally and mentally handicapped youths, during its 13th annual Derby Days. Derby Days, which was held this year from April 22-26, is an annual event held in the spring. During the week, sororities compete against one another in fun- draisng, derby hunting and various field events. In the evenings, the Sigma Chi house is filled with women cheering and screaming in support of their sororities. Derby Days is considered by all of the participants to be a lot of fun. It was my first Derby Days, and I had a terrific time, Delta Gamma sister Lynne Speidel said. I liked it so much because even though sororities are competing against each other, everybody ' s really working to- gether. That ' s Greek unity, she said. A highlight of Derby Days is the Golden Derby Hunt, which takes place on the Fri- day of Derby Days week. This year, it was found by Alpha Sigma Alpha sorority, who captured first place in the event as well. ASA Barbie Longton was crowned Derby Days Queen. Quynh Luong, an ASA sister, summed up her group ' s feeling about winning. Ev- eryone worked really hard. We were happ that we raised a lot of money for Camp Orenda, and that we were able to win 1st place this year. Eleven sororities participated this year. three more than last year ' s event. Sigma Chi ' s Dave Hockenberry. one of this year ' s Derby Days Chairmen, was happy with the turn out. Everyone involved had an excel- lent time while raising money for a good cause. Tri Sigma sorority placed second and captured the spirit award. Zeta Tau Al- pha received 3rd place and Delta Gamma finished fourth. — Zanne Miller Barbra Smergalski Barbra Smcrgalski Top left: These two teams fight to break the eggs on the coaches heads Top right: Carefully dripping as much of the egg in the cup as possible Center: AST ' s cheer for the judges Above: Zeta ' s waiting for the 3 next event.

At least that ' s what Alpha Xi Delta and Phi Delta Theta found out as they danced their way to first place in Greek Sing April 5, which kicked off Greek Week 1987. Greek Sing was just one of 22 events of the week, which raised S750 for the Leu- kemia Society. Other popular events, according to Kim Hoburg, Greek Week chairperson, includ- ed Greek Gorge with participants trying to eat the most roast beef sandwiches in a given amount of time. 1 think Greek Week went really well, said Jeanne Schuster, a member of Theta Phi Alpha sorority. I had a good time throughout the week and especially had fun playing volleyball. Along with volleybal l, Greek Week in- cluded a campus-wide marathon. Compet- itors would race to different locations throughout campus, tag a person stationed there, and that person would have to com- plete a task — either playing jacks, bounc- ing a tennis ball or eating a twinkie. Field day was also a big event during the week. It consisted of a tug-of-war, a keg toss and a tootsie roll, which had one member of a fraternity and a sorority in a sleeping bag rolling to the fmish line. 1 had a great time during Greek Week, Doug Buxbaum, a member of Kappa Sigma Fraternity. It was fun par- ticipating with other Greeks. The Greeks also sponsored Steady Micks April 10. Greek Week sponsors included Roy Rogers, the Co-op, JT Health and Fitness, Sacos and the Kappa Sigma Fraternity. Tau Kappa Epsilon and Theta Phi Al- pha won top honors of the week. — Lisa Crk venae and Linda DeFazio Top left: Theta Chi ' s struggling in the lug-of-war. Top right Cule — aren ' t they.

The final year at lUP brings a lot of feelings to a senior. The desire to get a job or get into graduate school. The sadness of doing things for the last time or the happiness of getting on with their lifes. The hope of a new future and the despair of leaving friends behind. Seniors saw a slice of their lives ending and another one taking shape, sometimes it hap- pened faster than they wanted it to. Seniors either worked hard or tried not to work at all. But whether or not it was studying or partying a student ' s senior year is almost always memora- ble in one way or another.

Do you think my skirt is too short? Maybe you should leave your purse in the room. Do these questions and statements sound familiar to you? Well, this could very well have been the same conversa- tion you had with your room- mate freshman year before em- barking on your first fraternity party. I will never forget my first lUP fraternity party. My roommate and I were so ner- vous. At 9:30, one Friday night, we set out on a totally new adventure . . . yes, an open party. At that time, the house we were going to was located on Church Street and seemed like a 100-mile hike. It didn ' t matter, though. We were too fired up. We finally got to the house, paid a buck at the door and pushed our way to the bar. 1 noticed that one of the brothers that had been at the door had followed us, and when I started to drink my beer, he started a small conversation with us. He looked a little scary, as all se- nior fraternity brothers did at the time. I kind of got the feel- ing he had the hots for my roommate. After talking for a while, it must have slipped out that I was a freshman. Well, his eyes got all full of gleam and began to twinkle. He started to twitch his right leg and said, So you ' re a freshman. I thought to myself, This guy must be some kind of weirdo or something, and started to giggle. You know, the way freshmen always do. What did I say to create such a thrill in this guy? My roommate pulled me aside and explained that he wanted to scoop me. Horrified, I screamed, What part of me does he want to scoop? Being from the eastern part of the state, I had never heard that before. She gently ex- plained its meaning as used by lUP students. I felt naive and truly embarrassed. From that night on, I learned much about the Ib ' P culture. You can relate, can ' t you? You know, trying to find Uhler Hall, asking what jag- gin ' ya meant, and, of course, the all-nighter. And how can one speak of their freshman year without mentioning their first dorm and roommate? Dorms. Oh my! The worst thing about dorm life had to be the bathroom situation. I had a favortie stall and shower. If anyone would be using MY fa- cilities, 1 would get bent out of shape. Also, the hall counselors meant well, but is it really any of their business if you ' re drinking, underage, in your room? The best part of dorm life for me was my roommate. When I first received a letter in the mail stating her name and hometown, I thought, Oh great, this girl sounds like a real winner. Well, you know what? She was. The only things she packed were six beer mugs, photography cutting knives, two pair of shorts, a few pairs of panties and a case of I.C. Light. (I didn ' t know even what I.C. stood for, but she had me guzzling it right down.) We became the best of friends and taught each other many valuable things. I showed her how to fold her underwear neatly and how to organize small drawers. She in return, taught me how to burp and steal food from the cafeteria. Speaking of the cafe, how about all those 7 p.m. dinners after a Friday afternoon happy hour? Everyone was wearing their perma smiles, includ- ing me and my roommate. But now that we ' re graduat- ing seniors, I can honestly say I am very lucky to have been ar- ranged with this young woman as a roommate. Our friendship grew and even though we no longer live together, we are still dear friends and I ' m sure we always will be. I think the worst year here had to be my sophomore year. You ' re basically a nobody. You don ' t have the experience of a junior, the cockiness of a senior or the attention and ex- cuse of being a freshman. The classes are all electives because now you ' re not sure if you honestly and truly want to be a nuclear physicist or anoth- er Ronald Reagan. Should you change your major or just go undecided? One of the highlights for this particular year had to be up- town. Uptown was new and exciting. Friday night you were Lisa and 5 ' 4 with blonde hair. (You were actually 5 ' 7 and brunette.) On Saturday you were Mary and 79 pounds heavier than usual. It didn ' t matter what I.D. you had — you had to get in the bars. Maybe it was some sort of identity crisis: too old for fraternity parties (so you thought) and too young to realize you weren ' t missing anything at the bars. Another highlight of my sophomore year was living off- campus. For those like me, off- campus housing was an en- lightening experience. The dorm bathroom scene was not my style, but living with five women in a two bedroom apartment wasn ' t heaven either. My one roommate was Note Queen. What I ' m re- ferring to here is the little note taped to the front door on -Sat- urday nights. It read: Dear roomies and scoops. Please be quiet or I ' ll kill you. And, of course, my favorite, Don ' t flush me while shower is on! taped to the toilet. Ah, yes, the fantastic junior year is next. Can we top the sophomore year? YES! Now you ' re basically known on cam- pus (if you like it or not). You ' ve finally chosen a major, but no one notices you because you ' re new to the department. How dare they write fresh- man on your newsletter? I guess you ' re not that well- known after all. This is the year your activities outweigh your credit hours. You ' ve become a regular weekender at the bars. But wait! Now you ' re going up- town on Wednesday nights as well. Classes are harder and much more demanding. Men women are thought of more and ou ' ve still not met your CP (campus passion). But what about those of us who did? It ' s a sad story to tell be- cause you ' ve been infatuated with this guy for three years, and now you finally meet him. and he ' s a total LOSER. Oh well, you ' ll try the campus di- rectory to find the number of your new CP (the one that sits next to you in crim). In all your efforts to make the first move, you find out the number is NOT REPORTED. Nothing can possibly beat senior year at lUP. For the first few weeks, you ' re busy with classes, activities and work. Then, all of a sudden, it hits you. What am I going to do with my life? Resumes and transcripts become nightmares and everything you hear about them is like hearing a dirty word. When is there time to deal with it? Career Services becomes your second home, yet you vow never to step foot in the library. You know, cocky seniors don ' t need to be seen in the library. It ' s very uncool. To wrap up four years of col- lege, HJP has offered friends, fun and Tall Glass Night at H.B. Culpepper ' s. High school seems light years behind you and now you ' re supposed to be ready for a new and challeng- ing life in the real world. For most, that is a scary feel- ing — so they decide to join the five-, six- and seven-year plan, and stay at lUP and major in whatever only requires 15 credit hours. For those of us that had enough work, activities and al- most enough fun, commence- ment was the only thing on our brains. It was time for moving on — leaving dear friends and a secure environment. But never fear, someda , somewhere, somehow, we will once again rein as seniors. -Beth Augello Seniors 223 COLLEGE OF EDUCATION An apple for ihc leacher — and other things a College of Education student might need.

J td MtckJcy During the past four years, many seniors may have felt that they were walking through a county fair instead of a uni- versity campus. There weren ' t any barnyard animals or amusement rides, but there was mud. Watching it drip off their shoes as they walked throiigh pools of brown gloop, stu- dents went to class, often dodg- ing trucks and bulldozers. This dirty sight seemed to in- crease during the 1986-87 year at lUP, much to many gradu- ating seniors dismay. It seemed that when they started here four years ago. there were a few construction projects and yes, there were paths tramped down by students. Today, there aren ' t any grassy areas left to turn into paths. Actually, the mud has been piling up through various con- struction projects since 1983. During the fall ' 84 and spring ' 85 semesters, students slipped and slid their way to the Co-Op Store and the bank as the Had- ley Union Building (HUB) was being constructed. The next project to put ex- cess dirt at the students feet was the construction of Sally B. Johnson Hall, which some- how seemed to extend onto the Oak Grove as they faced mud- dy shoes and splattered pant legs on both sides of Washing- ton Street. During this year, mud was at an all-time high. The HUB parking lot was torn up to make room for a new, im- proved version. Major holes were evident from Whitmyre Hall to Sutton Hall as a new underground heating system was being installed. A con- struction project was being started at Weyandt Hall and a new energy generator plant was underway at the lot next to Folger Dining Hall. Sidewalks weren ' t only mud- dy; in many places, they were gone. Students had to walk over plank bridges, gravel paths and through buildings to get from one class to another The mud from their shoes extended onto the Oak Grove and many of the buildings around the construction site. According to a member of the housekeeping staff in Gor- don Hall, the mud was every- where, especially in the hall- ways and stairwells. It was hard to clean up, Roberta Fairman said. The students couldn ' t help tracking it in. It was everywhere outside. So, as graduating seniors be- gin their careers away from I UP, they may have to give up the battle against mud, unless they live on a farm, work at a construction site or come back to lUP — for graduate school. -Bruce Thiel Top: A shot of the construction by Fol- ger Hall.

Going to classes is one thing seniors won t have to do anymore, such as this stu- dent going into Wilson Hall. Seniors 241 inding A Job Two navy blue suits, leather briefcase, polished shoes, six sections of want ads, 200 re- sumes and a winning smile. Sound familiar? These are the essentials to any college graduate stalking that first job. Career magazines claim it is a full-time job finding employ- ment in today ' s market. What college senior has an extra 40 hours a week during their last year of school? But then again. there is a paranoia among some seniors that if they don ' t have a job before graduation they ' re failures. This is untrue, but it causes a great deal of frustration among these students. There is nothing more upset- ting for a liberal arts major than talking to a business ma- jor who ' s had his job offer from a Big 8 firm since Novem- ber, and he didn ' t even have to leave Indiana. The firm came to lUP to interview. All he had to do is sign up for an appoint- ment and then walk across campus in a suit. Less fortunate students are subjected to finding their own interviews. The student will call the prospective employer. He will be put on hold by a less-than-pleasant secretary. She will transfer his call four or five times. This is all occur- ring long-distance, of course, which will destroy his phone bill. The secretary will finally transfer him to the right person after five minutes. This person will either say, I ' m sorry. We filled that position or The only interview time we have available is tomorrow at 9 a.m. Can you make it ' If the sec- ond response is given, he will of course forget that all of hisj classes are tomorrow, that his suit is at the cleaners and that his car ' s two month overdue in- spection appointment is tomor- row too. The next morning he will go pick up his rented suit in his rented car. He will stop at Mc- Donald ' s to change into his suit. He will drive an hour and a half to the interview. He will have 20 minutes to spare, and he will then take a wrong turn. He will get lost in a strange and scary neighborhood (the kind that you lock your doors in) for 17 minutes. He will sweat on his rented suit. He will pull into the first parking garage he finds once he is in the vicinity of the interview. He will not check the cost-per- hour for parking. He will rush into the office with 10 seconds to spare. He will enter the interview- er ' s office. He will sweat on his rented suit some more. He will be so nervous he will find it hard to hear the interviewer ' s questions over the pounding of his heart. What are your career goals? What would you re- quire for a starting salary? Would you be willing to relo- cate? Do you have any ques- tions for me? Questions for the interview- er? What can he ask? The most polite thing is to ask about benefits or what new programs the company is going to imple- ment in the next five years. What he really wants to ask is HOW MUCH WILL YOU PAY ME!?! He wants to buy the new car he ' s been looking at for months. He wants his own apartment. He wants a VCR and a color television. But it ' s a known fact that you do not ask an employer how much you are going to be paid in the first interview. It is considered to be rude and pretentious. So our student babbles out some polite question about the company ' s softball league and the interviewer enthusiastically talks for an extra 20 minutes — extending the length of the in- terview to two hours. The student thanks the inter- viewer for his time. As he is leaving, he passes the secretary that put him on hold forever. He contemplates taking down her name and charging his next phone bill to her. No, it wouldn ' t create good office morale if he did get the job. He returns to the parking garage to get his rented car. He drives down the steep exit ramp. He pulls a five out of his wallet. It can ' t cost more that that. He hands his ticket to the attendant.

We have secu- rity in this lot, but if anything is stolen, we aren ' t responsible. Terrific, the student thinks to himself. After he adds up the costs of all his expenses (car, suit, parking, phone) he ' ll have to ask for a starting salary of 30 grand. -Cynthia Carmickle A student at lUP ' s Business Day reads a copy of that day ' s Penn. 242 Seniors I COLLEGE OF NATURAL SCIENCES AND MATHEMATICS The items shown, along wjlh computer science, are part of the challenging fields of math and science Carl Eakm Tracy Lynn Abraham Math Ed ; Pittsburgh.

PitUg j-i tjt.ci As the soon to be lUP graduate neared the final days of his college career he found himself with a strange feeling every time he did something. It was the It ' s the last time I ' ll ever ... at lUP feeling. Seniors knew the thoughts, but here are a few to refresh the memory: (1) The last final e.xam at I LP. (2) The last time to suffer through class registration. (3) The last paper to research at the library. (4) The last homecoming game as a stu- dent instead of an alumni. (5) The last happy hour uptown. (6) The last death dog from Sheetz. (7) The last roadtrip with friends to Pitts- burgh or anywhere else. (8) The last three-hour evening class. (9) The last 8 a.m. class. (10) The last trip to the Cashstream ma- chine for money for the weekend. Seniors ran themselves ragged at times trying to get all the lasts in before graduation. Every last gave seniors a sad but somewhat warm feeling. And all of the lasts will hopefully give way to many firsts in the future. — Cynthia Carmickle Above Thoughts of lasl times to fill this gradu.itc ' s head on graduation day Seniors 249 COLLEGE OF HUMAN ECOLOGY AND HEALTH SERVICES People ' s health and physical well-being are the foci of students in the College of Human Ecology and Health Sciences.

In between posing instructions the 5 foot 4 inch photographer sings along with the radio. ■T ' m crazy for you . . . . Timothy J. Valecce does this for a living. If he ' s not taking portraits, he ' s spending the day in his car travelling to colleges like Grove City, Lafayette and even I UP. Tim is the Davor photographer who photo- graphed 950 IL ' P seniors for the 1987 Oak. IL ' P is my favorite school to come to even though it is a long dri e, Tim said concern- ing his trip from Philadelphia. The students here are so friendly and a lot of fun. Tim also enjoys his job over- all. The change in atmosphere IS his favorite part. Travelling is both a plus and a minus in his photography career, ac- cording to Tim. Sometimes it ' s really nice to get away, but it ' s also a pain living out of a suitcase and eat- ing in restaurants all the time. He also dislikes the concep- tion that the media gives to photography profession. Everyone thinks photogra- phy is all glamour. There is a lot of hard work which you go through first before you get even a touch of that glamour, which you may get eventually. The highlights of Tim ' s ca- reer have been photographing a Billy Joel concert, and sitting a row behind Billy ' s wife, Christy Brinkley. He also en- joys the benefits of visiting cit- ies like New York and Pittsburgh. Before working at Davor. Tim attended .Antoneli Insti- tute of Art and Photography for an associate degree in photography. Tim was fortunate to get a job at Davor. Some photogra- phers wait years to find a job in their field. It is a very competitive field, but if you really love it you can make it. Start at the bottom if you have to. and stick to your dream. Tim says he has a long way to go to achieve his dream. But he is on the right track. I would love to go into pho- tographing movies. Audio-vi- sual production would be the perfect job for me. Some day I hope I ' m doing that, but for now. shooting senior portraits at places like IL ' P is great for me! — Lesley Holton Tim is seen here, in the Oak office, giving the polishing touch to one of the 950 seniors who got their senior picture taken for the 1987 Oak.

Journalist Nicholas Daniloff served as the keynote speaker; while Dr. John Wel- ty, lUP ' s president, had the honor of con- fering the degrees of all the graduates. Following the main ceremonies, gradu- ates and their family and friends went to various locations across the campus for the individual department ceremonies where the graduates received their final re- ward — their diplomas. -Cynthia Carmickle Top The smile of receiving a diploma- Center A surprise on the Miller Stadium field Fjr lop right: A little bit of music .46oie The final cheer of the main ceremonies Fur center right Nicholas Daniloff was the guest speaker at the main ceremonies.

More paper work ... l wflj ' Wjii- From High School to College Do You Remember When . . Think back to when you first applied to colleges. The endless pile of applications that came from the SAT Student Search. You wondered why you ever checked yes to being a part of the whole mess. The ironic thing was you never got an ap- plication from one of the schools that you wanted to go to — you ' d have to write and request that. Aside from all the paper work that went with those ap- plications, there was the cost. The application fee was non- refundable, of course, and usu- ally a substanial hit to the old wallet. After you sent out the appli- cations, you waited and waited and waited. For what the appli- cation fee cost you, you thought two weeks would have been enough time. In the two or three months, during which you tried to put the whole situation out of your head, the letters began arriving. Now it was decision time. Where to go ' You got to visit. You got to watch bormg ad- missions slide shows. You got to eat in the cafeteria with your parents. Hypothetically, let ' s say you chose lUP. Guess what you were in for now? More paper work and more money kissed good-bye. You also had better been prepared to memorize your so- cial security number, immedi- ately. From the second you were accepted, you became that number. Read on. number 444-99- 3456. You then paid housing, food and then your tuition pay- ment around July. Please make sure that you include your social security number on the check, because you couldn ' t be identified by your given name and home address. September arrived 444-99- 3456. Welcome to lUP. Fel- low students are allowed to call you by your first name. Pro- fessors tried, however when you asked to see your grades. they inevitably said, What ' s your soc. number? Fast Forward 444-99-3456, don ' t let this discourage you. Think back to high school, re- member when you were a freshman and nobody, except your friends, really knew your name. By the time you were a senior, the teachers knew you, and most of the underclassmen knew you or at least knew your face. I LP is a little too big for that kind of familiarity, but don ' t dispair. When you ' re a senior here, a lot of professors will know your name, especial- ly in your own department. If they are really on the ball, they might know your soc. number. You ' ll have many new friends, and a day won ' t pass by with- out at least one person yelling hi to you as you pass through the Oak Grove. When all of this occurs, you ' ll realize that graduation is only months, not years, away, and you ' ll have obtained a de- gree with or without a name. - Cynthia Carmickle ' You ' ll have many new friends ' What ' s your soc number ' ' A Chorus Line 48 Academics Section 72 Activities Board 158 Activities Section 18 Adult Students 57 Advertisements 289 Air Band 38 All Americans 144 Alpha Gamma Delta 177 Alpha Omicron Pi 178 Alpha Phi Omega 164 Alpha Phi Sigma 170 Alpha Sigma Alpha 179 Alpha Sigma Tau 180 Alpha Tau Omega 199 Alpha Xi Delta 181 Alumni Feature 16 Amahl and the Night Vistors 40 Anchor Clanker 200 Athletics Section 98 B Ballet de Montreal 46 Baseball 130 Black Student League 66 Block Party 42 Branch Campuses 94 266 Index Closing 288 College of Business 78 College of Education 86 College of Fine Arts 90 College of Human Ecolo- gy and Health Sci- ences 84 College of Humanities and Social Sciences 80 College of Natural Sci- ences 88 Concert Dance 155 Council of Trustees 75 Countv Fair or I LP ' 232 D Delta Gamma 182 Delta Sigma Theta 183 Delta Tau Delta 192 Delta Zeta 184 Derby Days 202 D 77 Gillespie 44 Do You Remember When? 273 Dorm or Not to Dorm 52 .

Love MOM, DAD DUANE Senior Parent Patrons 273 Financing A Degree Verification Causes Headaches Remember back to when you were a high school junior or senior contemplating col- lege. Should you even go to college? If so. where? A number of factors proba- bly influenced your decision: location, field of interest, size. But the main thing that proba- bh aided your college choice or perhaps even made the choice for you was cost. Cost is a major reason many prospective students choose IL ' P, a quality institution with a good reputation yet available at a relatively low. state-school tuition. Unfortunately. lUP ' s low cost ma not be quite low- enough for some students, and they must turn to what may prove to be a continuous four- year headache: financial aid. Financial aid is the saving grace for those students who are unable to finance their o n education or whose parents ma not be able to finance it either. In the 1985-86 school year, 10.334 students received some kind of financial aid, the majority of this being loans, according to Sally Abrams, as- sistant director of financial aid. Students fill out form after form before the semester be- gins, only to fill out more forms during the semester, sending more information to get them- selves through the verification process. Verification. This word haunted more students around the country this year than ever before. The process has always taken place, but it has never been as tedious as this year, thanks to a reauthorization bill signed by President Reagan. This form didn ' t cut back the funds allocated to students for all forms of financial aid, it only makes the verification process stricter, according to Abrams. The federal government doubted the accuracy of stu- dents ' applications. Abrams said. These doubts by the govern- ment turned into doubts for the students — doubts about w heth- er they will ever get their aid, how much would they even get, who was responsible, and what they could do in the meantime. Many students were left with no money for rent. food, books. and tuition, and they simply could not wait until their aid was verified. The financial aid office tried to soothe the agony of verifica- tion as much as possible. The workers limited their counter service to students to the after- noon hours and spent mornings engulfed in the complex verifi- cation procedure. We made a concerted ef- fort to get as many done as we could by Dec. 1, Abrams said. She said if some students had not been finished by then, it was because of repeated stu- dent mistakes. The financial aid office also worked on verification for off- campus students first. If these adjustments were not enough, students could apply for emer- gency loans from the university until their aid came through. Although it would seem that the student aid uould be cut back after this long, tedious process, Abrams said that many students actually re- ceived more aid. Unfortunate- ly, no change is seen for this new verification procedure in the future, but the university should be able to work out a better system once it grows ac- customed to the changes, Abrams said. So once you get your money, what are you going to do with it? Your first inclination might be to take that healthy check from the university and spend it all on a trip to Florida for Spring Break. But most stu- dents realize this money has to last them all semester and probably most of next if the procedure this semester is any indication. So they deposit the money in a bank account and employ any method possible to take it back out again. One of the best methods is the check. Once you can deduce your total balance of $5.91, you take that ever- satisfying step of writing a check out to yourself. This could become a very dangerous habit, but it may be the only alternative in many cases. Most of us, however, have another alternative: the auto- matic teller. And you thought getting money from the gov- ernment was difficult. It ' s a good thing those Cashstream machines are all over town — maybe one out of the many around will be able to give you money. For those of you who have awakened from too many nightmares with Temporarily unable to complete this trans- action fiashing in front of your eyes, the final alternative may be getting a job. On-cam- pus jobs are available through work-study and there are even some jobs to be found around town. If worse comes to worse and you have a car, you could always deliver pizzas! Whatever method you choose to finance your college career, it is not an easy task. For the 10.000-plus students who do receive financial aid, there is always one thing to look forward to — paying your loan back after graduation. -Dana Smith Douglas Macek Left: Working in an office provides ex- tra money Below: Students try to sign causes headaches for many.

As you come home from class you think of all the places you arc going to go . . . uptown, Cy- cad ' s then baci to your friend ' s apartment for pizza . . . You arrive home, a little tired but excited for the week- end. Sure, you have a couple of papers due, a test on Monday and a quiz on Tuesday but Monday and Tuesday seem so far away. All you can think about is having a good time. It ' s 4:30, time for happy hour at Wolfendale ' s. Of course that extends into happy hours. You come home with just enough time to fix your hair and makeup and go out again at 10. You finally get to sleep at 3:30 a.m. After sleeping Satur- day away the whole thing hap- pens again. This is what we ' re suppose to be doing. This is what college is for! you an- nounce to your parents when they call to see what you ' re up to. Now it ' s Sunday night. Sud- denly all those papers tests and quizzes are only a night away. After staying up most of the night you finally finish your paper and manage to study for an hour before falling asleep on your book. Your roommate wakes you up on her way out to class. You brush your teeth and run to your class with the same sweats that you fell asleep in. You make it through all your class- es by holding your eyes open and drinking cans of Diet Coke. If you can identify at all with this scenario than you are a victim of Exhaustion-I UP Style. By talking to some oth- er students I found out that ex- haustion is a very common state of being around this campus. Having everything go wrong at one time exhausts me. When things are running smoothly, 1 can usually budget my time Debby Albert, a ju- nior political Science pre-law major, said. Other lUP students feel that it ' s pressure of being the best at everything that exhausts them. Competing for the grade really burns me out, Linda Si- racusa, senior journalism ma- jor said. Pattie Brett said, Working to meet my own standards which are too high exhausts me. She is a junior journalism major. No matter what it is that ex- hausts us the most important thing is having a way of han- dling that exhaustion. 1 usually quit working and do something fun like cooking or screaming and jumping around. I also throw shoes when things get really bad. Pattie said. Hopefully your states of ex- haustions are short lived and few and far between. When you do find yourself staying up all night and living on caffeine, just remember, That ' s what college is for. - Lesley Hoi ton CyntbiM Carmicle Suddenly all those papers, tests and quizzes are only a night away. . . . over your third cup of coffee and second piece of pizza. Bill Stusjnic To Study Or Not To Study The nightlife includes movies, concerts, parlies, dancing, eating, drinking and much more. lUP Nightlife Abounds lUP at night — it ' s a dark and sometimes mysterious top- ic that changes with the night of the week and the month of the year. Some week nights are calm, some are wild and heaven help us on the weekend at lUP. Starting with Sunday — for the most part it is a night of rest. However, it can be a night of all-nighters for some be- cause a lot of Monday papers (due at 8 a.m.) seem to slide by until Sunday night. You know it ' s going to be a bad Monday when you are exhausted from Sunday and a new week of classes has just begun. On to Monday night, it ' s a night of resolutions, even though it isn ' t New Year ' s. I ' m going to finish my pa- per two days before it ' s due, and I ' m going to study in ad- vance for my test next Monday as well. How often have you or your roommates made similar state- ments, only to burn the mid- night oil the night before the big paper or test. But, never fear, you hit your bed, book and highlighter in hand. You ' re usually asleep within half an hour. Sunday and Monday nights are now gone. Tuesday night is here. Because you fell asleep last night, you ' re going to read two chapters and write a rough draft for your paper, which is due on Friday. You intently study and write for 4 to 5 hours and go to bed with a clear conscious. A mid-week crisis hits you as Wednesday night arrives. You think to yourself, I haven ' t had any fun since Saturday. The Wednesday night movie at Pratt seems very tempting. So do the drink and pizza specials that are seen throughout Wednesday ' s Penn. What the heck, the paper ' s only due on Friday and I ' ll have all week- end to study for that test on Monday, you think to yourself, as you put on your coat and head for your favorite Wednes- day weakness. It ' s Thursday night, and guess what time it is . . . paper writing time. The rough draft you wrote on Tuesday doesn ' t seem to make any sense so you decide to start over. Then your roommate yells, Aren ' t you going to watch Cosby? What can a half hour break hurt? So you plop yourself by the television. This half hour turns into two hours, because they kept showing tempting previews of the shows to follow. Back to the paper you go, and by the time it ' s all typed and proof read, it ' s 2 a.m. FRIDAY — TGIF. The weekend has finally arrived and you can forget your classes for a day or two, or can you? A little voice inside your head keeps reminding you, Test on Monday, test on Monday. Oh well, it ' s only Friday night. You ' ll have time to study later. You head out for a night of fun with your friends.

But there is never a weekend at ILP when one of the 13,000 plus students isn ' t having a party. Fraternity parties have been cut some what as the IFC passed a ruling that they may no longer charge admission at parties. Not to worr though, the Indiana bars are more than happy to pick up the slack for the over 2 1 (and sometimes not over 21 ) crowd. There ' s no fear of going hungry at night at ILP either, especialK on weekends. Pizza specials are man . Fast food restaurants extend their hours for the weekend nights. .And if all else fails, you can always count on Sheeiz for death dogs and other night time munchies. Plus if you get bored with ILP, you and your friends ma even consider taking a week- end roadtrip, the possibilities of where to go are endless.

I he week- Bill Muhlack Is Drinking A Problem At lUP? ... we would find so many stu- dents spending Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights up at the bars. The girls come up here to sec the guNs and ihc guvs come up here to ' What do you do on the weekends at I LP? What ' s the big deal about turning 21? What do you do to cele- brate? What do you do when you fail a test? What do you do to meet that guy? The answer to all these ques- tions for some lUP students is drinking. You may feel that drinking is a big problem on this cam- pus, but not for everyone. For those that do have a problem with it there are many ways to get help. Kelly Herlya, Chemical Health coordinator at Pechan Health Center, said, We have a wide variety of educational programs, individual and group counselling. We also have two groups to help adult children of alcoholics. He said that the drinking problems which lUP students have are no different than any other university. But we are handling the problems differ- ently than them. We have taken an active campus approach. We ve done programs in psychology de- partments, health departments, counsellor education, safety sciences and labor relations. Since we ve got all these pro- grams and counselling groups it seems odd that we would find so many students spending Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights up at the bars. But that s where everybody is. Quarter drafts at the Brew- ery, ladies night at Cycads and giant drink night at H.B. Cul- pepper ' s. With all these spe- cials it s almost worth it to go out every night and drink. But according to Patrick Murphy, a bartender at Wolfendale s, that may not be the main at- traction at the bars. I don ' t think most people come here to get drunk. It ' s mainly a social gathering place. One student who is a regular uptown said, The girls come up here to see the guys and the guys come up here to see the girls. Kelly Herlya, however doesn ' t totally agree with this idea. Everyone is pressured to drink. Not just students, peo- ple of all ages, he said. Herlya feels that a lot of stu- dents are getting drunk on this campus which therefore leads to other behavior. Sexual harrassment is usu- ally an unacceptable behavior, but when the guy is drunk it ' s acceptable. And the girl is the one who ' s wrong for not understanding. Drinking and driving is no longer an accepted behavior, so maybe these other behaviors which stem from drinking and drinking itself will one day also be unacceptable. Herlya feels that students must make responsible choices. We must offer other alter- natives for those students who don ' t drink. Steady Mick s, a nonalcholic sM i Aycr ' i Blended drinks . . .

Their shoes are wet and mud covered; their jeans splashed with the muck. Complaints can be heard: Why couldn ' t they do this in the summer? Why did they close olT that sidewalk too? It ' s progress! It ' s the new steam pipes. It ' s the cogenera- tion plant. It ' s the Hadley Union Parking Lot. Name the project and it probably made some sort of mess on campus. There is something to re- member; all of these current inconveniences will be assets to the campus in the future. What does the future hold for I UP? The administration will be working to stabilize the number of students admitted to lUP keeping the numbers around 13,000. I suspect by design we shouldn ' t be much different in terms of enrollment, said Dr. David DeCoster, vice-presi- dent of Student Affairs. When these new students ar- rive chances are certain re- quirements will have changed. Beginning this year, a task force was set up to review the General Education require- ments. Revisions in the current policy are expected in order to maintain the high quality of education available to students now. The College of Business is also expected to take some steps to eliminate the over- crowding in their department. This measure is also being tak- en for the assurance of quality. Students will register for classes differently in the fu- ture. Telephone registration by computer and digital tele- phones is expected to begin within the next year. Students will dial certain codes and the computer will tell them if they are open or closed. Will it work ' Only time will tell. The campus will be looking better in the future. The steam pipes will be installed. The Hadley Union Parking Lot will be finished. The Cogeneration Plant will be completed. And chances are the mud will disap- pear (at least for a little while). There will also be a number of projects in Cogswell, Clark and Weyandt Halls; and Leon- ard. Walsh and Wilson Halls will have their classrooms painted and refurnished during the summer of 1987. The future holds many things for lUP, its students and its graduates. However, the im- mediate future should not change things too drastically. -Cynthia Carmicklc The administration will be work- ing to stabilize the numbers of students admitted to I UP.

Half of the Oak staff were repeat performers, a fact that made planning this year ' s book easier in some respects and hard- er in others. It seemed the 1986 Oak was barely on the presses when it was time to start the 1987 Oak. I, for one, took a deep breath and worked on my self-motivation. Half of the staff tried to figure out how to make their sections or stories better than last year ' s, while the other half wondered what the was going on. Photos became a constant worry for all in the fall. Were they taken? Where were they? Could we use the negatives? etc. We did get the negatives and the majority of pictures were there. I thank the Penn photographers for their help and negatives. New staff members came on the scene with added spunk. Quynh and Bob never let senior pictures go unpublicized. Amy grew to love counting the seniors. Thad learned to ask ev- eryone he knew, Wanna write sports for the yearbook? And Doug became the saviour of the section editors by scheduling photographs and remembering to take them Aside of the calming effect of responsible editors, there was always Larry Intihar, our sales rep from Jostens to inform us that we were doing great . He stopped many a ner- vous breakdown, without telling everyone when their real deadlines were (I did that). The Davor Photo Family made life easi- er on us by printing half of our color in black and white. Ozzie the Computer grimly re- minded us of approaching deadlines (with Gemma sending out notices) and reporting lack of activity in the fall and overload come spring (sorry Mr. Orlick). Jim Devlin, our advisor, was hard to find in the fall, but he did spring back once the Penn ' s computers started working. I just hope they can really do indexing, because 1 don ' t know if I could handle doing the index by hand again. I apologize to all the new staffers for over- looking things that as an oldie I took for granted. You should have tied me down and made me quote layout rules until I turned blue, thanks for sparing me. Working 10 to 12 hours on my deadline was punishment enough, (those humming fluorescent lights can drive a person bonkers). With yearbook number two under my belt, number LVIX for lUP (whatever that means), my staff and I stand for what re- markable things can come about with a small group of dedicated workers. Thanks guys, and I ' ll try to cut down on my Diet Coke consumption. Cindy Above: Jim Devlin plays with his wooden duckie.
