Marshall University - Chief Justice Yearbook (Huntington, WV)

Text from Pages 1 - 336 of the 1976 volume:

Chief Justice 1976 Marshall University Divide Marshall's activities into the four seasons — fall, winter, spring, and summer. Then ask the question, What do the seasons of the year have to do with us, the students at this institution of higher learning? Maybe nothing, perhaps we ourselves are the ones responsible for what happens here. And yet, maybe the seasons do have something to Ho with at least otir attitudes. 4 9 wrm 5 In the fall, we arrive in Hunting-ton, most of us anxious to get started doing something—whether it be hitting all the clubs and bars once again or just settling down, ready to get this last year over. But many of us get disheartened; nothing has changed—the bars are the same way that we left them, once again the Thundering Herd ends up with a disastrous football record, midterms come up, leaving the fear that this may not be the last year after all. So with the last few traces of optimism, we watch winter arrive. With the -ainy, dreary, cold mornings, comes the rationalizing thought that maybe it isn't all that important to brave the weather, to walk across campus to those early morning classes. And with that thought, we crawl hark into bed, knowing that our grades will suffer; but we can always cram during finals week. Naturally because of the cold weather we are closer to one another, pc'haps undesirably close, with whomever we've been living with, or trying to live with, this whole semester. But we guess we can make it just a few more weeks. Dreaded f.nals come and go. Then we all go; home too, to enjoy winter, to take that skiing trip or fly south to enjoy some warm weathei. When we all come back the long vacation has helped. It's still winter but it's a fresh start. Cries of Boy, I'm going to hit the hooks this semester for a change! are heard across campus; and the cries of good mentions fall short as the bars run their tempting back-to-school specials, the professors seem even more unmerciful. And if that isn't enough, the weathei gets worse. As winter finally fades away we all wonder if anyone, including our administration, has heard our cries of despair over the strong-blowing winds that have carried us across campus. lust in time, spring, the long awaited season of rebirth finally comes. Now it's not so bad to get up early. It's a wonderful feeling to open the window and smell that first fresh breath of spring air. But who wants to waste the sunsh ne and warm weather sweating in a classroom when there's a whole new world waiting to be discovered? For many of us, Ritter Park is where the action is, where we can do whatever we want to do. Even though spring brings about new hopes and reborn optimism, we still don't put them to use on our hooks. There's nothing like an evening walk to wherever our particular place of action is, whether it be a friend's apartment or even to the library, to take our minds off life's pressures. Again we face finals, last minute term papers that have to be written, all in hope of getting out of Hunting-ton to go home for the summer. Spring brings about saying goodbye to many people we may never see again; sometimes that is good and sometimes that is sari. Nevertheless we pack up, most of us leaving our home away from home with a few misgivings but more often with a feeling of relief. Summer comes, but not many of us arc left at Marshall to welcome it. Although a few of us return to take up or make up a few more hours in summer school, the majority of us have fled to spend a few weeks at the beach in order to regain our sanity or to return to the summer job we must have if we plan to return to this place of higher learning next fall. And so it goes, year after year, season after season. We, the students of Marshall University, do have something to say about what goes on here; but we must admit that the four seasons of the year also have something to do with the way we feel, with what wc make of an academic year at Marshall. 6 7 1 12 13 14 Dorm life Steve lake and Dan Brook titling on the (ire escape stairs at South Hall (tnpX Posed picture in Towers fast (above}. 18 Dorm life: what's it all about? No one has ever really figured that question out. There was plenty of action in Marshall's residence halls: shows exchanged between residents of Towers East and West, a streaking party that occurred on a warm Sunday evening In February. Ar.d there were lots of parties—a lot of beer, a lot of pot, a lot of liquor, a lot of speed . . . and a lot of speed letters. However, the lifestyle in each dormitory differed. South Hall was on one end of the spectrum and West Hall was on the other end. Twin Towers ran a close second behind South. Laidley—well, what could be said about Laidley. And then there was Hodges, the hall the jocks lived in. West Hall residents, for the most part, liked a quieter atmosphere. Other students condescendingly compared West Hall to a convent. As for Laidley, many women tried to move out before more sinks fell apart; but at least Laidley had sinks in the rooms. And Hodges . .. well, all freshmen girls knew that they just didn’t walk by there alone in the later hours of the evening. Twin Towers, the skyscrapers that house many types of people with varied lifestyles, was often called a jungle; residents were perhaps just a little less discreet about their illegal activities. Each dormitory at Marshall had its unique reputation. But they were all a great deal alike, too. Dorm directors in every dorm posted the same three Golden Rules: no alcohol permitted, including beer, no members of the opposite sex allowed after hours, and no illegal drugs of any kind allowed. In other words, residents were not expected to live the life of the college student fortunate enough to live in an apartment, or maybe a Greek house, or even at home. Of course, regulations are usually made to be broken, and as a result, the social life in the dormitories could be called pretty normal after jll. It's just the landlords, housemothers, and parents don't write speed letters and R A's do. Surviving the food in the cafeteria was also an important aspect of the dorm experience. Accompanying hangovers suffered from parties the night before, there was the effort to swallow that first cup of coffee the morning after. If that would stay down, the suffering resident knew that he or she was home free. It was often hard for students to believe that they were actually paying hard-earned money for some of the food that was served in the cafeteria. Regardless of all the hassles and problems, dorm life often had its positive aspects too. Despite washers and or dryers that remained broken for eternity, unfair regulations, frequent shortages of hot water, flooding of floors, and a few other inconveniences, residence halls provided an atmosphere of meeting a lot of new people and even becoming close friends with some of them. 19 BAKU KtthtK 513 WEST HALL Two residents of Wea Hall, fifth floor, dunk a fellow dorm dweller into a shower (right).

The art of streaking was revived during a chilly evening in February. A few students shed their clothes and entertained Marshall's dorm population. Hodges Hall seemed to be the center of attention, and dorm residents gathered along the sidewalk from Hodges Hall to Harris Hall (Building A.) The boredom and restlessness of residents were relieved for a few hours, as the excitement lasted until rain and colder weather arrived. 2i Spring cleaning No this is not the women's intramural book carrying contest but the result of spring cleaning In Laidley Hall.

Afterwhich jacquie Lanza quietly sits with the teddy bear, Ralphie. 24 Well, they're scrimping on the meat. There's only one cockroach in the chili today! 27 Dorm residents, always looking for an escape from boredom, often engaged in various pastimes. One of the most unusual activities this year included the pinball playing of a determined pinball wizard. Throughout an entire weekend while other residents were enjoying the sun and fun of one of Huntington's first warm weekends in April, a bearded young man in a cowboy hat refused to move from the pinball machine in South Hall. Attempting to set a world record for pinbail playing, Steve Lake played pinball in South Hall lobby for 48 consecutive hours. Playing over bi'5 games. Lake's point score totaled more than 2 million. Lake decided to send documentation to the Guinness Rook of World Records He said that he made his guidelines as strict as possible so that his record would be hard to beat. Lake attributed his ability to stay awake for the 48 hours to his stereo and to the people who watched hint play. He said that he was alone for only ten minutes during the entire time. The spectators who watched him play donated money to help cover the cost of the games on the pinball machine. Lake spent more than $45 during the 48 hours. The donations were sent to the March of Dimes. 28 A pot plant growing under .� desk lamp llcft). Snorting black h«h in a dorm room (above). 31 33 Crow up! You'rean adult so act like one! Tuition and dorm installment due! No alcohol in dorms! PEANUT NIGHT AT TINY'S Students will be dealt with like any other citizens of Huntington; they have the same responsibilities (How come we don't get the same privileges?)! WEDNESDAY NIGHT AT THE BAIT! No guests of the opposite sex after hours! Mystery meat again?! Tuition and dorm installment due! THE HOLE! Act like an adult but don't expect to be treated like one! Is this what a first year at Marshall is all about? One hassle after another with a few parties in between? Not entirely; it just takes a little time to adjust. As a freshman, one of the first things I had to learn to cope with was living in a dorm, one of those buildings that seemed like a hotel when I visited them for weekends while I was still in high school. However, once I found myself a dorm resident rather than a visitor, there were a few times that I felt a little like an inmate. But I have found that dorm living has had its advantages; it just took me a while to find them. The most important thing I experienced as a dorm res -dent was friendship. I met many new and interesting people, people who often had the same prnhlems I did; so it was fun just sitting around the hall late at night—swapping stories, giving and getting advice, ard raising hell. Bar hopping, raiding the Gino's truck, and ripping off the Pepsi machine were just a few things that helped make the nights more exciting. And that's what most freshmen seem to be looking for— excitement. As far as social activities go, the dorm had a few TGIF's dances, and picnics, but not nearly enough. However, the ones they did have kept people buzzing for days. I learned something valuable by living in the dorm—how to survive! All hough the Horns have many faults, they can be as good as the residents want them to be, if the residents would take an active interest and try to find a solution to the problems. My first year at Marshall has been very successful. I've learned a lot, academically as well as socially.Mar-shall University has a great deal to offer students and has the potential to do much, much more. With the right leadership and equal share of the finances, Marshall will no longer be referred to as West Virginia's other University.

A fiicman looks through the rubble at College Apartments (right) 36 The story of the lives of Marshall students only oegan on campus; classrooms, dormitories, and the Student Center only started the action. Most events happened off campus—In apartments, in bars and clubs and at Ritter Park. Economy and closeness to campus were the main factors students considered when searching for apartments; unfortunately, safety was too often overlooked. Quite a few students found the living conditions satisfactory in an old but economical and convenient apartment building at the corner of Fourth Avenue and Fifteenth Street. But fire raged through the building one night, causing a nightmare for those apartment dwellers who lost personal possessions as well as a place to live. Until they could re-locate in other apartments. most of the students had to move into Marshall's residence halls. However, the majority of the apartments were not fire-traps; they were fairly comfortable places to live. And students who lived off campus enjoyed their privacy; they could study when they wanted to and party when I hey wanted to. And when apartment dwellers grew tired of solitude, they went out and hunted for familiar faces— at Ritter Park, at the Hole on Sixth Avenue, at any club college students were known to invade on almost every night of the week. People were always around, ready to do something, anything. One favorite place Marshall students congregated at was Ritter Park. Although only a ten minute drive from campus, Ritter Park had an atmosphere of freedom; the park extended an open invitation to everyone to come out and relax. At Ritter, a person could lay out and soak up some sun, or let his dog run free for a few hours, or drink some beer with friends, or just sit under a tree and relax and maybe even try to study a little. Of course, one of the big problems that faced apartment dwellers was what to eat. Perhaps they tired of their own cooking, off campus students patronized the many small restaurants around campus. Frank's Steak Shop, Wiggins' Barbecue, ll's Sub Shop, Gino's Pub; the names of such places were a welcome relief for many apartment dwellers who just couldn't stomach hamburgers and pork and beans (again?). Freedom in lifestyle, privacy, and choice of food iradr apartment living attractive (as far as money would allow), especially to dorm residents who sought relief in their friends' apartments. For many, life at Marshall only began outside the gates of Old Main. Scenes at Rittei Park Children romp through the grass (above). A group of students gathes on Sunday afternoon (top right).

Milanese Sophomore Cervantes, the author of Don Quixote, said, The road is always better than the inn. In other words, each goal achieved is like an inn. It is just a temporary resting place along the road of self-fulfillment. Living means motion, movement, turning away from dead ends as we move along the highway to achievement. The fun and pleasure is in the journey, because it is our individual creative ef;ort. The satisfaction of a great painter, is more in the actual creation of a painting than in the final display of it in a gallery. The artist does not stop after one masterpiece. He sets out on a new idea, constantly trying to improve. By the same token, we must reach out for that next goal. As hectic as college life can be, we sometimes are so caught up in the work and the hassles, we forget our friends and the good times we share. Most of us cry, We want out of this place. We need to take time to reflect on the productive, enjoyable moments, instead of dwelling on all the negative aspects. Too many of us sjffer from tension by holding onto the burdens o; yesterday and the fears of tomorrow. When we look into the mirror, what do we see? Fifty percent of whaf we see deals with yesterday. Thirty percent of what we see deals with tomorrow. But where is today? Is is Inst in the panic of yesterday and tomorrow. There are more than one thousand minutes to a day, yet wc live very few of them in the present. We should not live m the past anymore than wc should try to live in the future. I fere is what Pablo Casals the great cellist said when he reached his ninety-third birthday, Every day I am reborn, every day is a new lifetime for me. With this type of outlook in mind it seems as though if we learn anything at all at Marshall, it should he that we must learn to live today, this very minute. Fven if that is the only thing we learn here, it has been worthwhile. 4) 44 Over coming the barriers Asa handicapped student at Mar-sliall the situations I face are not any easier or any harder than those encountered by other students. It is just that some of the problems must be handled in a different manner; for instance, the shortest distance between two points is not a straight line for the handicapped student but a detour down Sixteenth Street and over to Third Avenue. Class problems can be strange; try to convince a professor that the reason you missed his exam was because you had to fix a flat tire. A wheelchair will not wheel with one tire. For all its strange problems, however, Marshall has given me greater freedom and dignity as a handicapped person than I ever had before. The experiences I have had at Marshall left me with a friendly, fighting spirit and a terrible dislike for filling out forms. I have learned some in the classroom, some in the barroom, but even more ir the dormroom. The dorm, which is described by the housing office as a learning experience and by the students as a prison which they must endure, is to me a synthesis between the two. I learned to live well with other people. I learned some would accept me for what I am, while others would think poor little cripple and still others would dislike me The dorm became a prison when I tried to study or party, because for different reasons both were forbidden. The move into an apartment changed my life because when I complained about the food, it was my cooking. The string of people I met and lived with in the dorm went a different direction. But the biggest change was growing away from campus life, the all night card games in the lobby, and the TCIF's. The move gave me a social circle hased on the Memorial Student Center. As a senior on the verge of graduating I cannot look back on my times at Marshall all starry-eyed, and think that it was the greatest thing that could liappen to me. There have been many barriers both physical and administrative for me to think that. However, I cannot as some other students, curse my time at Marshall as being the worst, because for every hard headed administrator who would not help there was a good one that was willing to help, for every unreasonable professor there was one that would help me learn something and for every problem if I looked, there was a solution. 45 Bill Bradberry J6 47 48 No, I'm not different from anyone else, it just lakes me a little longer to get there, said Jan Lilly, Marshall student. I like Marshall and enjoy the people, most are friendly and helpful. The only problem I have is getting around on campus. It's relativley easy with the sidewalk and building ramps, but it's time consuming Of course, there are some places I can't get into, such as the theater in Old Main. I was termed a fire hazard and asked to leave. I suppose there are mental as well as structu.il barriers everybody has to over come. The Coffee House, yes, that's the place, my favorite place. It's friendly, quiet and exciting, I enjoy being there with my friends and drinking a beer I can honestly say that my experiences in the Coffee House and on campus have contributed to my personal growth. I met many people during my four years, but two played a most important part; Dr. Bill McDowell, professor of education and Steve Meadows, professor of counciling. I owe them a great deal. What more can I say about Marshall, I like it. so 51 Wendell Atkins being greeted by liis new fraternity brothers, the Umbdj Chi Alphas during the fall rush Fall rush Friday September 19, a day many male Marshall students will long remember. This day ended the week long event of fraternity rush. Smokers, TGIF'S, house parties and formal dances were used to get fraternity men and potential pledges aquainted. Rushees were given house tours and explanations concerning what each fraternity had to offer. Friday culminated the week when rushees gathered nervously in the Science Building awaiting their bids. Fraternites mingled outside trying to look cool and not worry over who would pick up their bid and who would not. Bids were given, some rushees left dissapointed, most left with a yell and bounded through the Science hall doors into the crowd which displayed his new fraternity flag and long awaited brothers. 52 Phil Barium looks on whilr Tom Moore is tossed in the aii by his iuturc fraternity brothers of Sigma Alpha Eysilon (left).

S3 Pike's Peak Pike's Peak, the annual event of competition between sororities, was held at Central Field on a cold Sunday afternoon in October. Sigma Kappa sorority captured first place honors. Second place winner in the competition was Alpha Xi Delta, followed by Delta Zeta in third place. Lynn Kuhl, a member of Sigma Sigma Sigma sorority, won the title of Miss Pike's Peak. Contestants, arriving in everything from wicker baskets to rages, paraded in swim suits for the judges. Competitive events included: a trike relay, an egg toss, a water chugging contest, comedy relays, a pie-eating contest, an egg roll, and a tug-of-war. The sororities aiso participated in an egg throw at the Pike pledges. A TGIF with the Pikes and the first place trophy were the awards won by Sigma Kappa, the winning sorority. 54 55 1 f J Kidnaping: 30's style ington policeman, who was shot and is now disabled. Sororitcs were asked to collect ransom money and fraternity members stopped traffic on Fifth Avenue asking for donations. At the end of the day, the housemothers were returned and a check for money collected was presented to Lt. Ottie Adkins, head of the fund raising project for Jim Mills, at the Marshall-Mt-Neese football game. Mom, here they come! , Alpha Xis screamed as several Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity men dressed in 30's attire proceeded to capture housemother, Esther Raabc. Mom Raabe's comment was. I'm glad I got my hair done She was then wisked into a 1930's Olds-mobile, as were all the housemothers and taken to the Lambda Chi house for lunch. The purpose of this planned kidnaping was to raise money for Jim Mills, Hunt- S6 Halloween Party A visit by the Groat Pumpkin (Becky Nicely) highlighted the annual Alpha Xi Delta Halloween Party for children at the Stella Fuller Settlement. The children were treated to games, prizes, cake and candy plus Alpha Xis in costume. House Parents Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity was fortunate to have young house-parents this year. Thomas and Sharon Ferrell, the houseparents of Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity, lived in a four room apartment located downstairs in the rear of the Pike house. Tom, twenty-four, and Sharon, twenty-three, began their job in August and have been married almost two years. Both arc working for their M.A. degrees, Tom in physical education and Sharon in finance. The Ferrell's duties as house-parents included collecting rent and making rent deposits, taking care of minor repairs and contacting the alumni if something major happened or needed fixed. Tom, a Pi Kappa Alpha alumnus, said he knew what it would be like to live in the house because he had lived in it before. On the other hand, Sharon said she was a little more apprehensive about the idea at first. She said, When Tom first asked me if I wanted to live in the Pike House, I thought, 'What are these guys going to say who are twenty-one, twenty-two, twenty-three years old about a girl living in their house.' As it turned out, the Pikes were very receptive to the idea of the Ferrells moving in. Both Tom and Sharon agreed they enjoyed staying in the Pike house and they planned to live there at least through the summer. They pointed out the biggest advantages were the closeness to campus and the free rent. Tom pointed out that more of the sororities and fraternities are going to younger house parents. Young people understand what the younger people are doing and do not let it bother them as much as older persons. 59 Living in a Greek house offers students the opportunity to meet new people and learn about new situations. Greeks who liave chosen to live in a fraternity or sorority house have enjoyed the experience. A person can count on a party every night in someone's room, according to one member of Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity. In most cases, living in a Greek house is cheaper than living in a dorm or an apartment. The life style, especially in a fraternity house, is much freer than in a dorm. With no restrictions placed on visiting hours and alcoholic beverages permitted in the houses, Greeks were able to be more open about their activities. The dominant concensus of Greeks was that living in a Greek house provided the chance to make lasting friendships. fnrnHi fly fri bee tor fun (tcp).

The week long festivities included, a college quiz, bowling tournament and a concert by ART held in the Student Center. Rounding out the week, was the Greek Carnes, chariot races and an all Greek TGIF at Bachelors Bait. 6$ With only a year left, it's hard to believe that I've spent three years at Marshall. When I was a freshman, I thought that I'd be here for an eternity; and there are still times when I do wonder if I'll ever make it. I wouldn't have traded these years for anything. Although I am here for an education, that doesn't strictly limit it to books. And I think that the greatest contribution Marshall had made to my life has been my friends. Staying on campus gave me the chance to live with people from different backgrounds and lifestyles. It also gave me the opportunity to grow with these people. Although many were acquaintances that fled with time, others turned out to be lanterns in the dark. I found out that having a friend means having someone to share all of your joys and sorrows. I also discovered that you can't have a friend without being a friend. When I came to Marshall, I milled around in crowds of nameless fares. I walked to class with strangers. But now, I recognize smiles and hear familiar laughter. I feel that at this time Marshall is my home. One day in the not too far away future I will say goodbye to Marshall University, but not to my friends. They may not walk beside me, but they will always be in my thoughts. Although there are many acquaintances who will leave tomorrow, you, a friend, will remain forever. Kathy Dodd Junior 66 Commuting The faces of many commuting students showed disgust and even panic throughout the year as the transients discovered their cars had been ticketed or tovsed away. Legal places to park just couldn't be found around campus—unless a person agreed to pay for a block of cement to house their vehicle. But, the administration is trying to solve the parking problem by arranging for the demolition of old buildings around campus to make room for greatly needed parking facilities. And, while the commuters rray be pleased with the solution, many Huntington residents and businessmen, forced to evacuate their “condemned'' buildings were not elated over the idea. 70 Claudia Lewis Senior Give instructions to a wise man, and he will be still wiser. Teach a righteous man, and he will increase his learning. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. Proverbs 9:9,10 Marshall University introduced me to the most important person in my life—Jesus Christ. Because of the love of Christ, the ministries of interested Christian groups, and the freedom of religous teachings on Marshall's campus, I have come to know Christ as my personal Lord and Savior God has directed me into the field of Biblical Counseling for the mentally ill, and Marshall University made it possible for me to obtain instruction and training in this area. I have Marshall to thank for providing me with educated and motivated professors, interested and qualified administrators, and rewarding friendships. All of them combined have made it possible for me to fulfill God's will. As I leave Marshall, with four years of experience behind me, I feel that I have gained a great deal of koowledge about life in what now seems like such a very short time. God, inspire and prosper this school in all its works, and grant that by our diligence and faithfulness, useful learning may abound to the good of mankind and the glory of Your great Name. Amen. 71 Black Awareness Black Awareness Week, a lime for everyone to share the experiences of blacks at Marshall University. A time to speak, a time to listen, to learn, and to enjoy.

Graduate school is a study of frustration, a form of frustration so ineffable no one can describe it . . . hut what the hell. I'll take a shot at it; after all, they expect more from graduate students. The life of a perpetual procrastinator is nor an easy one, especially when attending graduate school. Ah, how well I remember a few months ago, sitting back enjoying a beer, contemplating, giving my solemn oath to Mom, Dad and myself, Yes, I will do well in graduate school. I will go to class, study, get my masrers, make you proud. I arrived full of dreams, hope, indecision and disillusionment. Here in the hallowed halls of Marshall was everything to be desired, learned or felt—just like undergrad, right? However, a few weeks into that fateful first semester the dreams began to fade away and the realities took over. They actually expected me to work and study! Then the big shocker. You find out very shortly that you are on your own in graduate school. Sure they push you, guide you, encourage you, but success in graduate school all boils down to this: Can you pass your comps? Will they accept your thesis? In this whirlpool of research, investigation, analysis and professionalism, one expects to find answers. Instead, there are mostly people who say there are no answers. Or, if there are answers, most won't admit it, you have to find out for yourself. You aren't forced to do this, most of what you learn is on your own. You are taught how to learn by yourself, not only about your chosen field of study but about life: a woman's place is not a ways in the home; the president is not always right (Hayes or Ford, take your pick); what is good for the CIA is not necessarily good for America; progress is not progress if it destroys the countryside. Yes, I appreciate those who tax my mind and sharpen my ability to analyze and think rationally. I appreciate those who are preparing me for my chosen profession. 1 only wish I would take better advantage of it. I hope the knowledge and skills I am acquiring can and will be put to constructive use, that they will not stagnate after I receive that cherished piece of paper hearing the words Master of Arts in Journalism.

The fraternity is a brotherhood, unified in its pursuit of excellence, drawing its strength from its own diversity. Members collected over $3,200 for Jim Mills, a seriously wounded Huntington police officer. Along with Delta Zeta Sorority, Lambda Chi Alpha sponsored a Valentine's Day dance at Green Acres. The fraternity annually holds an intrasorority basketball tournament which includes a beauty contest, trophy awards, and a TGIF with the winning sorority. This year Lambda Chi Alpha sponsored the Colonial Conilane, which consists of members from various chapters of West Virginia, Kentucky, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Maryland.

The festival began Thursday, Jan. 29, with the world famous trumpeter Maynard Ferguson's clinic and concert. Ferguson's concert, a c omplete sell-out, was one of the festival's highlights. Friday night's program included performances of three college bands: Fairmont, W.Va. Wesleyan, and the Marshall Jazz Ensemble. Saturday's schedule was filled with performances of high school bands and clinics sponsored by the guest artists. Buddy Bakei, professor of music at the University of Northern Colorado, conducted a clinic in trombone. A clinic: on improvisations was raught by Btinky Green, professor of music at Chicago State University. Rehearsal techniques was the topic of the clinic conducted by Bob Morsch, director of bands at Western Illinois University. The 1976 Marshall Jazz Festival ended with the combined performances of the Marshall Jazz Ensemble and the guest artists on Saturday, Jan. 31. Marshall's assistant professor of music and festival director, J.D. Folsum. said that the MU Jazz Festival has given students the opportunity to learn the tools of the art and to see professionals use them. 136 Maynard Ferguson's jar? clime prevented in (he Keith-Albcc. 117 138 Mayrard Ferguton appearing In the; Keith-Albee laiiuay 29 [above).

The band, under the direction of Kenneth W. large, played at all the home football games, and in various parades in Huntington. Also, the band traveled to the King Coal Festival in Berkley, W.Va. and to the Marshall-University of Dayton game in Dayton, Ohio to perform during halftime. The band endeavored to wake up the often disgusted fans and tried to revive spirits that seemed to have died out many times at Fairfield Stadium.

Chief Justice The musical epic, The Chief Justice: John Marshall, written by Dr. Paul W. Whear, MU professor of music, was performed in Washington, D.C. on May 11. Marshall's Department of Music, which performed The Chief Justice, had the honor of single-handedly -epresenting the Mountain State at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. Selection of Whear's epic to represent the state was made by the National Music Council and the National Federation of Music Clubs, co-sponsors of the state days in the bicentennial salutes About 160 performers made the trip to Washington, including students, faculty and Huntington residents. The epic required two narrators, two soloists, a choir and an orchestra. The composer. Dr. Whear, conducted the performance. 144 146 James E. Morrow Library James F.

The Center offers such programs as contemporary worship, community service, coffee house, Bible study, prayer and singing groups, faculty ministry and counseling. This year, one of the events sponsored by the CCC was an ecumenical Thanksgiving Praise Experience, where students of different religions united for an evening of fellowship. Rev. Paul D. Dippilito, Methodist minister at the CCC, said he hoped the service would be the beginning of many other ecumenical services in the future. Josh McDowell, an international representative of the Campus Crusade for Christ, spoke at the Cabell County Memorial Field House and in classrooms at Marshall. McDowell, who lectured on Prophecy and Maximum Sex, was sponsored by the Campus Crusade for Christ and the Baptist Student Union. 161 Father Franklyn Becker and Mirkie ( umminc celebrating M«t in the C ampin Christian Center. 162 163 Speech and Hearing The Speech and Hearing Clinic serves an important function at Marshall University. First, the clinic offers free assistance to Marshall students who have a speech or hearing problem. The Speech and Hearing Clinic also gives training in clinical procedures to future public school speech and hearing therapists. I he training in the clinic offers future therapists a valuable experience, as they work first-hand with youngsters who have speech or hearing problems. Normally a young child works directly with a student therapist. Herbie, a young boy with a speech problem, has been assigned to Dolores Crummett, a future speech therapist. After Delores had won Herbie's confidence and friendship, the two then spend the afternoon in an informal therapy situation. One of the techniques used by the student therapist is known as the Peabody pictures. The children also play with cards and tell stories while they arc under- going therapy. The informal and friendly atmosphere in the clinic provides an excellent opportunity for the student therapist to make progress in helping the children with their individual speech or hearing problems. The Speech and Hearing Clinic, located in Smith Hall, is operated by the Department of Speech. The clinic, as well as assisting Marshall students, also serves the Huntington community. The Speech Improvement Program provides special training for students requiring speech improvement. Students admitted to this program come from a screening procedure required as a part of courses in education and speech, from self-referral, or by the request of any University instructor. 164 Mrs. Holstein and Herbie wailing in the clinic lounge before the iherapy sesson begins (opposite page) Herbie and Dolores Grummet:. a student speech therapist, getting arqua nted in the clinic lounge.

If someone had to point out a center of action for all of Marshall University, that place would have to be the Student Center. Think about it, if you wanted to see someone during the course of the day, where else would there be but the plaza outside the Union? There's always someone, there's always something at the student center. Whether it be the cafeteria, the Coffeehouse, the game room, or the fire place. there is always a place to sit and talk. And how many freshmen have felt their initiation info Marshall wasn't complete until they took a midnight swim in the Memorial Fountain? The student center is exactly what its name implies, a center for the students. And it's not just a place to socialize; it's a place to get a check cashed in a hurry, a place to buy books and supplies, j place where you can get a good cup of coffee in the morning to help you make it through the morning after. It isn't just a big building with a iot of room; the Union seems to be :he heart of Marshall's student life. It's a place we know is always there :o fulfill whatever need we may have. 170 Students at the fireplace in the Memorial Student Center lobby (above). Jennie Taylor.

Lee Booten claimed the title of Pin Ball Wizard, beating out nearly one-hundred eighty competitors by scoring a total of 175,790 points. Second place honors went to John Powere and third to Paul Doessinger. Recreation Director John D. Short said, The competition was really far out.

On Tuesday, Oct 25, a pep rally was held by the water front outside the flood wall, and the climax of the evening was a burst of fireworks. With the spirit of homecoming officially under way, students began to take part in many activities. In keeping with the spirit of independence, a historical musical satire, The Boston Tea Party, was presented by MU students on Thursday. While dormitories, sorority houses, and fraternity houses were being adorned in various displays of crepe paper and posters, West Hall residents were busy working on another endeavor— their annual carnival, which was held this year in conjunction with the homecoming festivities. An occurrence of two firsts in Marshall's homecoming history helped highlight Homecoming 75. Michael McGhee, the first male to ever enter queen competition, was elected to the position of coqueen, along with Helen Kitchen, in the first tic in Marshall's homecoming history. The attendants were Stacy Fama, senior; Ruth Maynard, junior; Kathy Jarrell, sophomore; and Mary Poindexter, freshman. Janet Pearson was elected Miss Black Pearl. Another highlight was the football game against Western Michigan. With Marshall trailing 19-7 in the beginning of the fourth quarter, more than half of the 11,91)0 fans left the game early; little did they know that the Herd was preparing to make a sensational comeback. With 2:38 left in the game, Ray Crisp made a fingertip catch over his shoulder from Larry Bcrkcry to put the Thundering Herd out in front, 21-19 for a comc-from-hehind victory. 133 Saturday night at the Memorial Field House 9,150 students rocked with the Doobie Brothers .

Members of these classes, as well as three teachers in the science department, spent an October weekend at Spruce Knob, the area of highest elevation in West Virginia, collecting benthos (all the larvae and other creepy crawlers which live in the bottom of streams). Interest in limnology, the study of inland waters, led to the development of the biological expedition. Students kept busy seining the streams and collecting specimens ranging from fish to dragon fly larvae. The collections were brought back to the classrooms and used the rest of the semester, as the students attempted to identify all the specimens they had collected. The idea of being uninhibited in the outdoors cane to life as the biologists found time to have some fun, too. Rather than just collecting specimens, several of the students found more excitement by throwing leaves and larvae at each oilier. The trip was headed by Dr. Don Tarter, Dr. Margaret Bird and Dr. Ralph Taylor and the university helped sponsor the finances. The research and field experiences proved beneficial to the students. Perhaps it is easier to tiptoe through live benthos rather than stumble over a textbook description of them. West Side Story The excitement and jitters start before auditions, build while looking at the cast list posted on the call board ( I did it! I did it! I got the part I wanted! ), decline along with morale during the nine long and tedious weeks of rehearsal, but almost reach an unbearable point before the first show. As the production progresses, some are unsure of their ability and usefulness, others are pompously confident of their talents and openly critical of others. New friends are made but almost inevitably so is an enemy or two. A large cast show such as West Side Story , with its many small parts and the fierce competition for the leads and principle parts always breeds jealousy and contempt. It doesn't always show but it's there, as it is everywhere in the entertainment world. Actors aren't the only people that work to put the musical together. There are the musicians, choreographer, the all-important director, technicians . . . everyone is important. Opening night approaches and the excitement mounts. Technical rehearsal—the setting of lights, sound cues, etc.—is long and boring. Tempers flare but everyone keeps on working. Ab, at last, it's opening night. Tension runs high. Everyone from the director on dowr. has opening night jitters. The small dressing rooms are filled to the brim with actors, make-up people and well-wishers. Some sit quietly, thinking about the upcoming show. Others pace nervously, tell jokes, talk, review lines. In place, ready to go on, :he murmur of the audience can be heard. On stage the glare of the lights hides the audience from view. It's almost as if the audience is one person, each night a different faceless personality demanding to be entertained. No two audiences are alike and each performance differs from the others. Then, after the stage is swept, the memories and fatigue of nine long, hard weeks of rehearsal and six performances can still be felt. There is a wonderful warm and content feeling during rhe curtain call with the whole cast on stage and the audience enthusiastically responding to the performance. Now! Time to head for the coup de grace—the cast party. 190 wr University Theater A tceni' from Fa hions in Old Vain Auditorium (above). 1% 197 198 Guest Speakers .V � v f Guest speakers on the Marshall University campus appear as part of the Artists Series, guests of rhe Student Activities Office and through other special interest groups.

The crowd watching from the stands (above). 216 The Thundering Herd football team, under the direction of new head coach Frank Ellwood, again suffered a disappointing season, winning only two games. The course of the season took on many disappointments. Ellwood stated many times throughout the season, Our goal is to eliminate mistakes. With twenty-three freshmen and twenty-four sophomores on the squad, there may he hope for next year's team, as inexperience does not necessarily mean a lack of potential. The starting line-up was dotted with freshmen. Herman Bud Nelson received the call to play quarterback, and the Herd showed an entire backfield of high school grads from the class of 74. Ellwood refused to use this ack of experience as an excuse for a poor season, insisting, They're not freshmen after they've played in their first ballgame. Perhaps an indication of the Herd's fate could he seen during the week of the season's opening game against Akron when place-kicker Ed Hamrick was declared ineligible to play. Hamrick, a transfer student from Ferum College in Virginia, had participated in preseason games, but he had to sit out the season because of a NCAA rule stating that a transfer student must wait a year before he is eligible to compete. The first game set the stage for the entire season; the twenty to eight loss was termed a matter of mistakes . The game was also marred with tragedy for Akron, as one of their players collapsed on the field and later died of a heart attack. The following week was a windy Saturday in Oxford, Ohio, and Miami blew' past the Herd with the embarrassing score of liflv to nothing. With two losses behind them, the Big Creen Machine” had hoped to pull out a victory for their fans in the first home game against Morehoad. For awhile, confidence was felt throughout Fair-field Stadium; hut a last second field goal by Morehead dashed the Herd's hopes. Their record now stood at no w ins and three losses. The Herd recovered from their dismal record the following week when lllnois State visited rairfield Stadium. I he freshmen sepmed to have come of age with their help in a thirty-six to three victory. Ellwood summed up his first win as a head coach with the comment, We didn't do anything different but play good solid football and eliminate mistakes ” No one had heard of McNeese State so an easv victory over them was expected by the crowd in the third home game of the season However, a freshman team can look great one week and bad the next. This was demonstrated when McNeese State rolled over the Herd with a score of lliirly-tliree to three. Hoping to prevent another losing streak, the Herd traveled to Philadelphia for a contest with Villanova. The city of brotherly love” was cold and rainy, not a very good setting for a comeback. Down fourteen to nothing at the half, the Herd managed to score two touchdowns, only to lose twenty-one to fourteen. With a record of one win and four losses, the Herd had to worry about pulling off a homecoming victory. With a male queen to attract students as well as bewildered alumni, 11,980 fans showed up at Fairfield Stadium. It was a long and disappointing first half, with the Thundering Herd behind all the way. With the coronation of Marshall's first male queen over, the weather beginning to get a lot colder, and Western Michigan leading thirteen to nothing, the stands began to empty after halftime. When the Big Green Machine” ran out onto the field, onlv half the fans were still there, 2nd most of them were shivering rather than yelling. Before long, everyone soon forgot the cold weather as the Herd began one of its most exciting performances of the entire season. An unbelievable come-from-behind victory was clinched with two minutes left in the game, when Larry Berk-cry lofted a pass to Ray Crisp, who had slipped through the opposition's coverage, and was all alone in the end 7onc. The Herd had grabbed the victory, bettering their previous year's record by one game. 17 The glory was short-lived as the Herd dropped their last four games to Kent State, Central Michigan, Dayton, and Ohio University. The final game of the season, a home game against Ohio University, was also the final game for seniors Jesse Smith, Mark Brookover, Steve Morton, Andre Heath, Fred Bader, and Al Mayer. One bright point of the season was the fact that John Fuzzy Filliez, a junior, managed to tie the school record for re- ceptions in the last game with 126 receptions. On the positive side of a dismal football campaign, the Herd managed to double the number of victories over the previous year. Reflecting on his first season at Marshall, Coach Fllwood seemed confident for the future, as he said, I'm disappointed but not discouraged . 219 Basketball fans and observers expected great things from the Herd in 1975-76. The team looked shaip in the early part of the season, and they got off to a fast start winning their first four games. The fans' optimism was reinforced in early December after the Herd pulled off their biggest upset of the season against Austin Peay. The Mll cagors edged heavily favored Austin Peay in one of the most exciting games ever witnessed by Field House regulars. However, the optimism was soon replaced with disappointment during the Marshall Memorial Invitational Tournament as the Herd, the perennial champions in the tournament, was unable to take charge aga nst Xavier, and eventually found themselves on the wrong end of a 78-77 score after one overtime period. This was the first time Marshall had lost the tourney since 1969. The team appeared to steadily decline during the campaign. In a trip to DePaul, they suffered the worst defeat in Marshall's history, losing hy a disastrous score of 118 to 62. Even the Hankie Gang failed to generate enthusiasm as home game attendance dwindled. Coach Bob Daniels found his strategy being sccond-gucsscd by fans, as evidenced by the mixed emotions of the crowds. The referees aiso found themselves under attack by crowds that often seemed on the brink of becoming hostile. The Herd still had the chance to finish with a winning season by beating Jacksonville in their final game, the last appearance for seniors Joe Hickman, Pete Polo, and Kim Humphreys. Jacksonville was in control most of the game; a last-ditch effort by the Herd to pull off a come-from-behind victory was halted when Earl Williams was called for dunking an easy lay-up. Again the referees were forced to listen to verbal abuse. The Herd lost the game by the score of 64 to 54. The I lerd closed out the year with a record of 13 wins and 14 losses, their first losing season in six years. For Coach Daniels, it was his first losing season in a highly successful coaching career. 220 Marshal; playes in action against Baldwin Wallace (left) and uttin Pea) tbciow) in the Memorial Field Home. 221 222 Marshall's Little Herd began its basketball season with a victory against Fastern Kentucky. Coached by C.J. Woolum, the junior varsity basketball team compiled a record of five wins and seven losses. Not a big team physically, the Little Herd had to out hustle their opponents if they wanted to win. After defeating Fastern Kentucky 99-83 in the season's opening game, the )V squad then defeated Pikeville, 101-90. They dropped three games in a row, losing to W.Va. Wesleyan, Southern State, and Ohio University. From then on out, it was a seesaw season as the IV team defeated Rio Crande and Armco Steel but lost to Scoreboard, Pikeville, Fastern Kentucky, and Shawnee State in the last game of the season. 224 MU lunior Varsity vs. Southern State in action at the Memorial field House (above). CoarheiCJ.I Woolum and lom fcrrell (JoftX The Green Gals, with a record of thirteen wins and thirteen losses, ended the season by unexpectedly capturing the state championship. MU's team was seated No. 3 (behind W.V.U. at No. 2 and Morris Harvey at No. 1) at the state tournament held at W.Va. Wesleyan College. In a highly competitive tournament, the Green Gals first defeated Morris Harvey, who had won two games against MU in the regular season. In the championship game, the MU 226 women cagers edged W.V.U., 69-68. Speed, hustle, and spirit helped the Green Gals overcome their lack of experience and their disadvantage in height. Coat hed by Donna Lawson, the women's basketball team played the toughest schedule in the state. The Green Gals were invited to the Mid-West Regional Tournament in Michigan, which consisted of over sixteen teams. Losing their first two games in the tournament, the Green Gals were defeated by Steven's Point of Wisconsin in the first round and by Ohio State in the consolation round. Traveling to away games by van, the Green Gals team was entertained by a tape player and a television provided by Coach Lawson. The girls also were able to enjoy several social activities while on their trips, such as a visit to the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, Tenn. 228 T —' The Women's lunior Varsity Basketball Team rolled through the season with an undefeated record. I he team, consisting of freshmen and sophomores, was coached by Gwen Hoover, a graduate assistant. Winning seven games, the junior varsity played against junior varsity teams from other colleges. Several JV players traveled with the varsity team to tournaments and away games, and many of them dressed for the Green Gal's home games. President Hayes sponsored a dinner in April at the Student Center for the junior varsity team as well as the varsity. With a great deal of potential, including accurate shooters and quick movers, members of the junior varsity team should make a large contribution to the power of next year's Green Gals. 129 1 N The Marshall Women's Golf Team competed in two tournaments during their 1976 season, including the Marshall Women's Invitational Tournament played at the Kiviera Golf Club. Members of the team, coached by Dorothy Hicks, were Nancy Bunton, bally Wallace, Connie Reed, and Mary Hendricks. Nancy Bunton won medalist honors in the Marshal Women's Invitational.

Intercollegiate on March 8. The golf team finished sixth out of twenty teams; quite an accomplishment for the Herd in a field consisting of some of the top teams in the country. In the next tournament, held at Durham, N.C., the Herd finished seventh in the 14-team field in the Iron Duke Classic. Other tournaments the golf team participated in were the Marshall Invitational, the Collegiate Masters, the Kepler Invitational, the West Virginia Intercollegiate, the Purdue Intercollegiate, the Mid-American Invitational, the Morthern Intercollegiate, and the Spartan Invitational.

Coached by Joe Feaganes, head coach for four years, the golf team consisted of four returning letter-men, including Harold Payne, a junior who was honorable mention All-American in 1975. Other let-termcn were Scott Davis, Tim Star-rett and Jay Guthrie. Lee Martina, Nick Nicely, John Tignor, and Jim Peet rounded out the team’s roster. 23.1 year, again headed the team. Other returning lettermen were Brett Thompson, George Lambros, Robert Woefel, and Clarence Perkinson. The netters' roster was rounded out by five freshmen, all from West Virginia: Nick lambros, |ohn Beasley, Steve Taylor, Charles Barley, and David Sisk. The Men's Tennis Team began the season optimistically and ended by netting nine wins and six losses, their first winning season since 1970. Second-year coach Bill Ca'roll had five returning lettermen f'om last year's team.

Going into the tournament with a record of seven wins and three losses, Marshall's women netters, met with seven other state schools, and battled sleepiness and fatigue during the 75 stare tournament held at the Barboursville Tennis Club. Originally scheduled as a two-day event, rain and lack of time moved the tournament indoors, creating an all-night mara- thon running from 3 p.m. Friday afternoon until 8 a m Saturday morning. Marshall's team captured third place in the tournament with seven points, losing to W.V.U. with twelve points and Morris Harvey with eighteen points. Capturing trophies for MU were Lisa Gergely, second place in No. 3 singles; Ame Evans and Terri Miller, second place in No. 1 doubles; Jill Duncan and Burt Chenoweth, second place in No. 3 doubles. The team of eight girls worked their way to a winning season with the help of Coach Linda Holmes, a graduateassistant. One member of the girl's tennis team commented that tennis could be a bigger and better sport if people would support it more She said, Tennis usually comes out with a winning season even though we have few supporters and hardly any money. 236 217 The Thundering Herd Thinclads was a young track team strong in middle and distance races. Of the squad's thirty-two members, seventeen were freshmpn and only five were returning lettermen.

Marshall University's Track Team in ac-tior. at the second annual Hall of Fame Relays being held at MU. 2 39 The first Women's Track Team at Marshall started with a successful season. Coach Arlene Stookes, a Pennsylvania woman with ten years of coaching experience, had a young but determined team. Of fourteen women on the roster, seven were freshmen. The second annual Hall of Fame Relays marked the debut of the women's track team. Competing against Morehead State and West Virginia University, MU entered eight events.

Suzanne CibMM., fviU diver, -valchinu w.m loam competition (left). 2- 5 MU's wrestling team compiled a record of six wins and five losses, the Herd's fourth straight winning season under Coach Robert Barnett. This is the best talent we have had since I've been here, Barnett said. But our depth at several positions is very thin and this is what could make us or break us. If we get hurt, we might not have anyone to put in. Heading the list of returning wrestlers was three-year letterman, and team captain David Carr, a 142-pound senior from Parkersburg, W. Va. Other outstanding returnees included 118-pound Matt Chovanec, a Martin, Ohio, junior and two-year letterman; Dennis Johnson, Warren, Pa., senior in the 150-pound class; Mike Scherer, Pittsburgh, sophomore in the 167-pound class; and Sam Peppers, Columbus, Ohio, sophomore who wrestled at both 118 and 126 pounds. lop newcomers to the Herd's squad included jerimiah Gagnon, Havenhill, Mass., sophomore— heavyweight; Brian Haynes, Toledo, Ohio, freshman in the 126-pound class; Tom Moore, Lindenhurst, N.J., freshman (134); Terry Parker, Ironton, Ohio, sophomore (190); Dan Scior, Ironton, Ohio, freshman (167); Frank Vronovich, Washington, Pa., sophomore (177). Six MU grapplers advanced to the NCAA Division I Eastern Regional at Cleveland State University. Jim Wulf, Lancaster, N.Y., junior, advanced to the quarter finals before being eliminated. Chovanec, Scherer, and Peppers also competed. Coach Barnett was assisted by graduate assistants Garret Break-iron and Larry Schollenberger. With the aid of a twenty-four man squad which included eleven lettermen, Barnett became the winningest wrestling coach in Marshall's history, guiding the team past a rugged schedule which included Kentucky, South Carolina, Miami of Ohio, Tennessee at Chattanooga, Virginia Tech, and West Virginia University. Marshall's baseball ream, last year's winningest independent team in District Four, fell short of its goal of three successive 20-win seasons, but continued its winning ways with an 18-13 season despite losing the heart of last year's lineup after graduation. We lost our number two, three and four hitters in the lineup, Coach Jack Cook said before the season began, and we don't have a real slugger left, he said. But as it turned out Cook had little to worry about. Four Herd batters hit over .300, led by John Wilson at .380 and followed by Lou Packer at .348, Mike Mueller at .333, and Dave Ramellaat .305. Carl Burgess led the team in runs batted in with 20, followed by Mike Horan with 19 and Packer with 18. By the end of the season Marshall committed no more total errors than opponents and outscored them 185 to 150. Pitching was another key to the Herd's success. Greg Kappas put together another winning season, compiling a 7-1 mark in a teamleading 52 innings pitched. Abbie De Young also had a good year, winning four and losing one. The tri-captains for this year's squad were Gary Hanes, C.R. Burgess, and Fred Faulkner. 248 249 IN 2 251 I'm not a hustler ' was the comment emphasized by Jack Austin, a MU senior, who has won several championships as a pool player. His most recent achievement was winning the Region Four Championship, which is composed of colleges in West Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. Austin, a native of Huntington, began playing pocket billiards (the correct term for the game more commonly known as pool) twenty years ago He contributes his success to his father, Curn Austin, who taught Jack how to play the game on a table no more than three feet wide, with pool balls the size of large marbles. Jack Austin has advanced quite a long way from that first pool table, as he has won his way into the A.C.U.-I. National Tournament, a tournament consisting cf fifteen of the best amateur pocket billiard players in the country. Having been in competition for three years. Jack has gotten a great deal of satisfaction and recognition out of playing pocket billiards. However, his pr mary concern has been his education; he hopes to become a teacher. The competitive game of pocket billiards is known as continuous shooting without missing Jack explained it this way: The balls are knocked into the pockets until one ball remains. The balls are racked after the fourteenth hall has been knocked into the pocket The strategy of the game is to shoot the one ball and make it, as well as breaking out the rack. Jack's record is knocking in fifty-eight consecutive balls. The key to Jack's success has been shooting with knowledge He is talented at knocking in balls located anywhere on the pool table, and he has several techniques which he calls trick shots. A main concern of Jack's has been the stereotype that many people have placed on professional pool players. He stated that the pool table has long ago moved out of the dirty, dingy pool halls and beer joints, and the professional pool player is not lazy or good for nothing. Like Jack says, the skilled pocket billiards player, himself included, is not a hustler. Intramurals 1975-1976 Intramural Champions Co-Recreational: Mixed Tennis Doubles—I Holmes and H.

And now—a new med school Dr. Robert W. Coon, interim vice-president and dean of the School of Medicine, and Donna Beckct, secretary, working at Doctors Memorial Hospital, home lor the med school. 27C Marshall University finally made it. After years of proposals, arguments, pleas, and fights, Marshall got the go ahead for their medical school. West Virginia University fought it, the Board of Regents was a stumbling block, hut the staff, faculty, and students, as well as the support of Huntington residents and interested West Virginians paid off. Marshall's med school is scheduled to open its doors in September of 1977. A great deal of work has to be done to meet that deadline, but the future looks optimistic. The Veterans Hospital and Doctors Hospital on Sixth Avenue will be used for classrooms. The oig task now is to select a dean for the long-sought medical school. The interim dean is Dr. Robert W. Coon. Dr. Robert C. Parlett, who was the dean of the med school, resigned before Marshall got the okay. The controversy between Parlett and President Robert Hayes put a damper on the jubilation when the Liaison Committee on Medical Education affirmed Marshall's request for a reasonable assurance of accreditation. Hayes said that Parlett resigned, and Parlett said that he had been fired. However it happened, Parlett is gone and Marshall is looking for a dean to head the med school. The curriculum of Marshall's med school has been announced. The medical training will be primarily concerned with general practitioners, and special emphasis will be placed on the medical profession In rural areas of the Mountain State. Perhaps the first graduating class in 1981 will help alleviate West Virginia's shortage of doctors, particularly in the rural areas. Marshalls acquisition of a medical school means progress for West Virginia. There is now the opportunity to have more doctors, more competition in the medical profession, and better health care for state residents. It also means greater status for Marshall University. The plans have been laid out and the money appropriated; Marshall is rolling along the road called progress. Marshall's population will remember the school year 1975-76, with all the petitions, editorials, recommendations, arguments, and the final cry of WE COT IT! splashed across the front page of The Parthenon. 271 Scot I Bookman Editors note: The photographs and art work in this section represent the works of various photographers and artists at Marshall University.
