Perhaps the most vis- ible sign of the year in motion was the ever-pre- sent construction around campus. Visitors to the campus . who haven ' t seen it in a few years may thini they stopped at the wrong uni- versity: Pratt Drive was re- placed by a cul-de-sac end- ing at the HUB and a lighted walkway extending to Esch and Wallace halls. Around the Oak Grove, Wal- ler Hall was closed for reno- vations and the steps in front of Leonard and Wilson Halls were rebuilt during the winter. The cogeneration plant started operating in full ca- pacity in the fall although a pipeline mix-up caused damage. Also visible around campus were the huge oil derricks which drilled four wells to general natural gas for the cogen plant. lUP took a step in simpli- fying the registration pro- cess as it implemented a test-run in which 548 stu- dents participated by telephone. Finally, a committee to study AIDS on campus was formed. Top:The HUB parking lot was completed a.s the fall semester began. Fur right: Gymaifl Sue Wahl moves with grace on the beam.

rop.Thu 11 1 ' Urumline displavi fine form at this year ' s Homecnmini? parade. .4 )(n ' e.The 1987 Indi- ans take tn the field for another winning game Nineteen eighty-eight can best be de- scribed as a year in motion throughout lUP. As each month passed during the academic year, moie and more changes were noticeable through campus and around Indiana. Fail enrollment reached record heights with 18,405 students at the Indiana campus, an increase of 157 from fall of 1986. This fig- ure surprised admissions of- ficials who estimated a de- clining enrollment due to a decrease of 18 to 25-year- olds. Along with the in- crease of students, howev- er, may come a tuition increase in the 1988-89 year, as well as definite raises in residence hall and health fees. The university ' s Capital Campaign surpassed all ex- pectations by raising $4.2 million, 170 percent of their minimum goal. Funds from the campaign will be used to increase funding of exist- ing scholarship programs, pay for at least five distin- guished professorships, ren- ovate Breezdale mansion on campus as an alumni and community center, and ex- pand progiams on branch campuses in Kittaning and Punxsutawney. Also, the 1987 Indian football team went farther than ever before by win- ning their second PSAC state title in a row against West Chester and advanc- ing to the NCAA Division II National playoffs. opening
