Opening 3 A Key to Winning Success Came From Preparation, Work Students realized that the road to success is not always perfect and orderly. They well knew that problems and concerns would constantly lx obstacles in their paths. Nevertheless, students were ready to meet the challenges, as they developed the confidence that they possessed the ability to confront problems and meet the challenge of numerous disappointments and failures until a successful solution is reached. With this determination, they were destined to achieve a position that would culminate in an enjoyable, challenging, and satisfying life. Students took great pride in doing things well, of doing them better than anyone else, and they looked to the future with justifiable hopes th.it their efforts would be recognized and rewarded.

Many students made time to study on the plaza of the Memorial Student Center. 4 Opening Working intently on deadline for The Parthenon are Dave Jenkins, Mike Fnel and Chris Miller. Sometimes a telephone break can relieve some work stress, as Nick Schweitzer found out. For Hassan Gamael, graduate assistant in math, practice in teaching is excellent preparation for a career. Opening 5 Looking Toward the Future Nitzschke Lends His Advice At first, the assignment seemed simple. Write a letter to the students and give advice on how to have a successful career, the Chief Justice editor said. Trusty pen and yellow tablet in hand, I sat down to whip it out, and wound up staring at a blank page for 10 minutes. How do you define success? What is a successful career? Is it being president of a Fortune 500 company? Is it getting rich and retiring by the time you're 30? Is it winning a political office? Is it writing best-selling novels? Being president of a university? Discovering life-saving vaccines? Or could it be teaching handicapped children to tie their shoes, or to write their names? Perhaps it is nursing sick people back to health. Maybe it's simply finding a field you like and putting forth your best effort every day. In other words, a successful career can be defined in a thousand different ways by a thousand different people. It depends on who you are, what you want to accomplish with your life and how you go about doing it. You can be a chairman of the board and have your picture on the cover of a national news magazine but if you're not happy, you are not successful. On the other hand, you can be a modestly-paid social worker and be extremely successful if you help other people and derive joy and satisfaction from your work. So much for a definition of a successful career. Next, how do you achieve a successful career? There are some obvious answers — Inherit a successful company; win the West Virginia Lottery. Better yet, the Ohio Lottery. Failing that, marry the company president's daughter — or son, as the case may be. You could, as many have done, set a course for your success, determine where you want to go, what you want to be — set your sights and never vary from your objectives. Or, as Chuck Yeager suggests, you can take life one day at a time, await the opportunities that come your way, put your talents — and luck — to work, and see what happens. For some, closely following a plan works out best. For others, the Yeager approach produces wonderful results — as it did in the case of General Yeager. For most of us, a combination of those two approaches may be best. A detailed, closely-followed plan may be a great idea, but the world changes. So you have to be flexible enough to alter your course from time to time, take advantage of changing circumstances while staying as close to your ultimate objective as possible. In other words, make plans but don't chisel them into concrete. Be ready to roll with the punches, go with the flow, or whatever the cliche of the day may be. Don't be so tied to your plan that changing conditions can destroy the plan — and you. The key is preparation. Prepare yourself for life, not just a specific career. Prepare yourself in your Marshall classes — all of them, not just your major field. Decide in general terms where you want to be 10, 20, 40 years from now. Read all you can find that pertains to the career you've chosen. Talk with people in the field. Work. I earn. Prepare. And be ready for change. It's almost inevitable. If, in 15 years it becomes necessary for you to come back to the classroom and reorient your career course, look at it as a new challenge — not the end of the world. Increasingly in the years ahead, many of us are going to be forced to change our goals as our society and our world change. President Dale F.

BAG 12 Student l ife While the new turf was being installed, the football team was forced to move its preseason practices to the track field on Marshall's campus. SporTec International employees work to install the end zone section of the stadium turf. Relief for MU Teams Turf goes down George Chaump's football team as well as Jack DeFazio's soccer team welcomed the new athletic year with a new $550,000 surface at Fairfield Stadium. The Board of Regents, after some deliberation, agreed to Gov. Arch A. Moore's request that the stadium's nme-year-old SuperTurf lie replaced. Marshall's part of the bill was only $150,000 and the BOK paid the rest. Mead football coach George Chaump said he felt the old turf was not very flexible and caused problems for the team. last season. I think the old turf played an important factor in injuries, the coach said. One such iniury was that of placekkker |ohn Mitchell, Because the old turf was not very flexible, often players were injured when practicing or during a game. Bones were strained because the turf should have been more flexible. Coach Chaump. however, felt the new turf took care of this problem. He said that the number of injuries had dramatically decreased since the 1986 season. As for the players, they agreed that the new turf was much better than the old one. The new stadium turf is probably the best surface I've ever played on or will ever encounter, said left Wood Watseka, III. junior who was red-shined from the position of full-back during the '87 season. The new OmniTurf, which was installed by SporTec International, featured a silica-sand mixture worked into a three-fourths of an inch fiber at the rate of four and a half pounds per square foot. Coach Chaump described the turf as unique, but good. The first game played on the turf was a high school game on Sept. 4. The Thundering Herd made its debut the next day in a 29-0 win over Morehead State Despite constant rain, standing water was not a problem during the game, as it was in the '86 season. Players did have to contend with flying sand during the first game. By the next home game, a 38-13 victory over Youngstown State September 26, the sand had settled and the players were able to enjoy the new surface. The OmniTurf is the third artificial surface installed at Fairfield Stadium since 1970, when Astro-Turf replaced grass. Superturf replaced the original surface in 1978 Student Life 13 Fun, Fun, Fun! Homecoming Week The week of Homecoming is always an exciting part of the year and this year was no exception. This year's theme was the roaring 20's. Even though most students weren't around during the era, they were still able to duplicate the styles effectively. As always, the Memorial Student Center was an active place throughout the week. Various competitions were organized by the homecoming committee. The guys enjoyed the pizza eating and the pie eating contests while the girls chose to watcn. A new twist was added to this year's events — the Toilet Bowl. Greeks and non-Greeks alike competed in such competitions as the egg toss and flag football. The two teams that made it to the finals were the Alpha Sigma Phi fraternity and the GDI's (a group of non-Greek students). In the end, the Alpha Sig's were the winners of the pizza party and the Toilet Bowl trophy. Homecoming week ended with a parade complete with floats and a bonfire Friday evening.

The Fun Doesn't End Saturday's Game Wide receiver Mike Barber set a record in the number of yards passing during the game, and Mike Beasley, a wide receiver from Cincinnati, OH, scored the first touchdown of his college career. Many students, however, could have cared less about the football game. Instead, they were interested in knowing who would be the 1987 Homecoming Queen. During halftime, the suspense ended. Sheryl Coles, Charleston senior, received the crown from last year's queen, Sheila Day Mullarky. Also, the halftime activities included the first Mr. Marshall to be elected. Kenny Green, Huntington junior, received that honor. Green, who also played for the Herd, escorted Ms. Coles off the field. Elation! Coles is 1987 Homecoming Queen and Kenny Green is voted Mr. Marshall. Above: People travel for miles to celebrate the tailgate party during Homecoming.

Coles basks in the glory of winning Homecoming Queen. Student Life 17 Party! By the time the weekend arrived, studying was the farthest thing from most Marshall students' minds. Instead, night life and dancing seemed more important. After a full week of studying, most were more than ready to trade their text books for a pair of dancing shoes. So, friends would get together and go to local hot spots to dance the night away. Students developed their own style of dancing, many of which were copies from movies and television shows. Many weekly shows helped keep students up-to-date on the current fads and crazes. Movies also played their part in influencing dancing styles. The popular movie Dirty Dancing, which starred Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey, reflected the dancing style of the '50s. Many students thought of dancing as a way to show off to their friends. And, area clubs gave them the opportunity. Robb s sponsored one contest that was patterned after the movie. One requirement of the contest was the use of music from the sound track. Otherwise, contestants were free to develop their own style. The winners of the contest were Bill Gandee, first place, and Brenda Bailes, second place. Why did students like to dance? Rebecca Purvis, Poca junior, explained her views. It's fun. When I'm out with my boyfriend, we like to dance and have a good time. Other students still preferred the challenge that competitions offer and also the thrill of winning, not to mention the prizes. heaturmg music with a different fla- Dancing at Hobby's, these customers vor, the Rock and Roll Cafe featured enjoyed great music and videos on bands every night. large-screen TV. 18 19 Celling some straightening up done in her dorm room in Twin Towers is Bev Smith.

Dorm Life Life in halls not that bad It's a rule freshmen and sophomores were required to live in one of Marshall's six dormitories. Dorm life. Like anything else, had pros and cons having a friend a door away, being near classes and activities on campus, eating in the cafeteria and waiting hours for the washer. The good, the bad and the ugly they were all part of the experience. It's not something experienced alone — roommates, resident advisers and 20 other people were there, too. So many people on one floor had advantages and disadvantages as well. There was always someone there to share a pizza or listen to problems or to do things with. On the other hand, there was never any privacy and it seemed like the people upstairs were always having well attended square dances to loud acid-rock music. At first, it seemed as if each room and floor would be identical — they were made the same, weren't they? But once residents discovered the wonders of paint and that beds could be taken apart and rearranged in a number of ways, life was well once again. There never seemed to be enough closet space, though, and no matter how the room was arranged, students always managed to stub a few toes in the morning. As with most things, it's all in how you Ux)k at it. Sludenf life 21 Some are different Apartments Alternatives For Many While the resident halls satisfy some students for as long as four years of college, some just have to get out. And the favorite alternative is always an apartment alone or with a close friend. Popular styles of apartments were usually old homes which had been converted to apartments because they were inexpensive and usually close to campus. But some students preferred more modern apartment complexes. Students without cars sought abodes near campus, but the place most students with transportation liked to live was in and around the Ritter park area. Apartment life offered many advantages, including freedom, kitchen privileges and privacy. But chores such as house-keeping and taking out trash and higher expenses including paying utilities and groceries balanced the charms. Sarah Justice, Williamson sophomore, said she plans to move into an apartment. I think any trouble with living in an apartment would be worth it for the freedom. Mary Lewis, Pratt sophomore, agreed. It will be nice to have the privacy having your own place would give you. Two students who share an apartment, Andrea Hunt and Kim Mitchell, verified their ideas. It's great to come and go as you please, Kim said. Andrea added, We share all the expenses and chores, and that minimizes the disadvantages. Kim Mitchell, Grafton sophomore, discovers Doug Smock, Huntington senior, relaxes in his that having an apartment includes doing apartment. housework. 22 Student Life Doing some assigned reading at his apartment is Scotty Hendrix, Huntington sophomore.

Student Life 23 Everybody wants it Scrambling to the Owl for weekend cash Money doesn't make the world go around, but it does have a lot to do with how fast it spins. Needless to say, the quality of a student's life of ten depended on cash flow and cash flow depended on some form of banking institution. Whether it be a home or local bank, a banking machine or a direct cash line from mom and dad. A lack of cash could bring a student's life to a standstill. To halt this standstill, students went to one of any number of local banks to draw on whatever finances available. Twentieth Street Bank was a popular institution with Marshall students on campus because of the convenient location of both its main and branch banks, 1900 Third Ave. and 1751 Fifth Ave., repectively. Students could just cross the street to find their pot o' gold. Just as convenient for students and staff alike was The Owl, an auto- mated teller, located at the Memorial Student Center. Thanks to First Huntington National Bank, those with the plastic could just walk up, press a few buttons and walk away with hard cash. Owl machines were not without problems though. It was very easy to scramble a checkbook’s balance with the slip of a stray finger. This was a friendly fate to many students when they needed cash in a hurry. 24 Student Life Celling fundi lo finance a nighI ou Davidson usei his Owliardal the r. outside the student center.

The answer from most students would have probably been the same — registering for classes. Long lines and closed classes were enough to give most students a headache. Some even became so frustrated that they considered dropping out of school. And, of course as the list of classes closed grew, so did student anxieties. Sometimes I wonder if I'll ever get my schedule fixed, Julie Reed, So. Charleston sophomore, said. In the fall of 1987, some students were faced with an additional hassle. Mandatory advising became the policy of several schools on campus. In order to register for the next semester's classes, students in the College of Liberal Arts, the College of Business and the School of Nursing had to have their adviser's signature. In addition to the signature, each professor was provided a stamp with the name of the college and the number the professor was assigned. Faculty members approved of the move, saying it helped the students. Students won't be taking electives that they don't need. Students, on the other hand, had mixed feelings about the new rule. Many supported the rule, saying it was a good idea. I know it caused problems for some people, but I think in the end, it will be for the best. It's good to have someone to help you choose the right classes for what you want to do, Mary- J. Lewis, Pratt sophomore, said. Others, however, felt the rule was childish and uncalled for. They argued that by the time students got to be juniors, they should be able to look in a catalogue and tell what classes they need and that having to get the signature was a pain. If you can’t you don't deserve to graduate, Rebecca Purvis, Poca junior, said. Finally at the front of the line, students hoped they would get the classes they needed. This student made last-minute decisions when he realized his first choices were closed. Here's where the waiting began for many students who pre-regislered. A faculty adviser was helpful in narrowing the choices. 27 Learning from ihe top down. President Dale F. Nitzschke receives a phone system lesson. Printing out the name of the office or person being called, the phone system brought technology to Marshall. UGH! New equipment requires training The summer brought a new phone system to campus and, at first, many headaches connected with learning such a modern and efficient system. Allen R. Taylor, associate director of the computer center, said the system was installed in the summer because fewer people were on campus. Complaints poured into Taylor's office about the system, but Taylor said most of the complaints were the result of the user being a beginner with the system. Once everyone made the adjustment, the new system was much more efficient than the old one. Not only did everyone at the university including students — have to relearn how to use the phone, everyone had to learn new vocabulary words. Audix and “voice terminal” were musts to the new lexicon. And everyone became accustomed to the computerized laser disk they heard when they were put on hold. Taylor said installation — including groundwork — took nine months, during which time 14,569 linear feet and 285,942 conductor feet of fiber optic cables were installed with more than 13 million conductor feet of copper cable. And training sessions for the system were held over a three-week period. About 800 people were instructed on how to use the system. Featuring laser disk music on Audix, the new phones caused headaches for everyone. Installing fiber optic cable, these groundsworkers compute length of cable of the new phone system. 29 A little culture Theater entertains Marshall's Theatre Department offered students a cultural experience they would have otherwise missed. During the 1987-88 year, the theatre Department put on five distinctively different plays. The topics ranged from a musical to an adult play. Marshall was also the site of the world premiere of Craig Johnson’s play. The Fighting 69th. The play dealt with the reality of World War II and how it affected one squadron in New Mexico. Not only did students act in the plays but they also were responsible for most aspects of production. The sets were designed and built by students, as were the costumes. Those students who had a valid Marshall ID and an activity card were admitted to plays free. Others were charged a small fee (usually less than $10) to cover production costs. The theatre Department provided students with learning as well as entertainment.

Changes Improve Cafeteria C-A-F-E-T-E-R-l-A. While Webster's spelling of this word means a self-service restaurant or lunchroom ' for many Marshall students it has meant I-N-D-l-G-E-S-T-l-O-N. Complaints ranged from overly hard brownies and tough steaks to the early clearing away of food and low-hanging plants. However, this year both Holderby Hall and Twin Towers cafeterias tried to improve the variety and quality of food and service, as well as make the dining rooms themselves look nicer. Holderby Hall's manager, John Ruggiero, noticed students were waiting in line an inordinate amount of time during the lunch rush, so he implemented the double line system. While this did speed up service, students were faced with yet another problem: seating. Before, students waited in line 15 minutes for their food; now students zip through the line only to wait 15 minutes for a free table. Joyce Lydon, Weston sophomore, said, The line should have been better thought out. But Markita Black, Nitro senior, said she thought it was a good idea, but it needed to be pushed more because some students were still unaware of it. The variety of food changed also. Joe George, Twin Towers manager, said since he had been there, both cafeterias have salad and sandwich bars which helped to break up the monotony of hamburgers every day. Holderby also installed a fresh fruit bar that was a huge success. Black said in the four years she has been here she's seen much improvement. She said they offer more variety of food, especially lunches, and I folderby is kept cleaner. To help the ARA food service improve, representatives from each dorm. the housing office and the managers, formed a food committee. Since the committee has been formed it has brought complaints from students to the attention of the managers, and together with the representatives they worked to bring about change. All complaints and suggestions were considered, but not all suggestions could be followed up on. The student representatives also recognized the good points in the cafeterias and brainstormed to come up with theme dinners. So, although students complained (as usual) about the food, this year was the beginning of many improvements for the dining facilities. Both George and Riggiero are optimistic about the changes and are working hard to satisfy the students. 12 Student I ife One student expresses his opinion of cafeteria lunc hev Two students discuss their day over lunch in lowers' Cafeteria.

Serving as a substitute for cafeteria food or a late-night snack, pizza was the only way to go. One of the main reasons pizza was so high on students' lists was tfie ease with which you could get it. Only a phone call away, most pizza places would deliver to the lobby of tne dorm or to an apartment door. Pizza came with a variety of toppings and in a variety of price ranges. Pep-peroni, sausage, and extra cheese were again old standbys. Mushrooms, peppers, ham and even pineapples were among other possibilities. Domino's and Dominick's were favorites among students because of the quality of their pizza. Lor students with an empty pocket, DiCarlo's, Giovanni's, Gino's, Lorenzo's and Pizza World were popular choices. With the variety of prices came a va- riety of sizes. Pizzas could be ordered for one or for five, depending on the appetite of those eating. As an incentive to order (as though there need be one), Domino's offered two pizzas for just a little more than the price of a single pizza. Most students didn't need an incentive to order, though. If anything, students needed an incentive to eat in and save money. 34 Student Life 3! The Huntington Mall was a favorite spot for these guys who are enjoying the game Road Blasters. Stand-up video games weren't the only popular games. Here these guys enjoy a driving game that includes a seat. 36 Student Life Fun and Relaxation Video Games Whether you like the computer age, or good ol fashion Foozeball, Marshall students know how to enjoy their free time. Video games are a favorite pastime for many college students. They are a way of escaping from the pressures of school or just having fun with your friends. Foozeball, usually played by teams of two, is enjoyed by everyone. It's exciting, different, and pure fun. Despite the fact that you need concentration and some motor skills, these games are good ice-breakers and can make it easy to start a conversation, with practically anyone. Electronic gomes were popular, but many still enjoyed the older gomes such os Foozeball. The Varsity was o popular place tor many, such os these, to enjoy the game.

Student Life Where the The Memorial Student Center houses the university book store, which otters books (or classes and pleasure. In the basement of the MSC, students have many opportunities to play pool, video games or ping-pong. A place to meet friends, to eat, to take a break between classes, to do a little shopping or studying. The place is the Memorial Student Center. On the main floor, students could always be seen eating in the cafeteria, going to the bookstore, glancing at the bulletin boards for highlights of upcoming events, and gathering around the fireplace to chat. The basement housed a wide variety of recreational activities. Students bowled, player! Ping-Pong, shot pool, patronized the tanning salon, and stopped by the commuters lounge for a short rest or soap opera update before going to class. Marco's, the student pub, was the setting for many live performances, weekly movies, and the consumption of a few beers. On the third floor, students attended lectures and benefits in the Don Morris Room, visited the offices of Student Government and Student Activities, or just found a carrel along the wall to study or take a snooze. The plaza was also a popular site when the weather permitted. Dozen of students gathered on the plaza to relax, participate in Greek affairs, enjoy entertainment, or just listen to the gossip of college life. For whatever the reason, the student center was where people played, ate and slept. The MU Student Center Students Are Student Life 39 Students Caught Sherry Lockhart.

Sleeping is essential to everyone's life, but Marshall students seemed to value snoozing more than the average person. No matter what the time of day, students could be seen on campus yawning as if to say, “I'd rather be sleeping. And, of course, the epidemic spread. Once one student yawns, ten others follow suit. One student described the situation as involuntary. Once you start thinking about sleep, yawns seem to follow.” Many students considered time between classes as time to catch up on their sleep Students living in the residence halls had the convenience of simply going back to their room for a snooze. Those living off-campus, however, found it difficult to take a sleeping break. Students could be found sleeping in very unusual places. The various benches and steps on campus were popular 40 Student Life ■1 during warm weather. Students, however, moved their slumber indoors when temperatures dropped. While sitting around the fireplace in the Student Center, students could occasionally be seen drifting into a peaceful sleep. Between classes wasn't the only time students chose to sleep. When lecture classes seemed long or boring, students found it next to impossible to keep their eyes open, much to the teacher's dismay. Preparing for class, otherwise known as studying, was also energy draining. After a certain period of time, letters and numbers seemed to blur together and the eyelids crew heavy . .. Students then decided the need for sleep was more important than the search for knowledge.

Sunset and Campus A Different View Campus looked like any other place during the day. That all changed with the sunset. As the sky turned dark and the lights came on, Marshall's campus seemed to become a different place. Many students didn't like the dark. They felt it meant they had to stay indoors. “Campus is unsafe after dark, or even at dusk ' said Kimberly Mitchell, Grafton sophomore. Others, however, felt campus was prettier after dark. They felt the lights added a certain beauty to the normal every-day surroundings. Most did agree that the setting sun brought with it an air of mystery to the campus. Shadows hid many things that were clearly visible in the morning and afternoon hours. Trees and buildings seemed to change and take on new forms. The shadows seemed to swallow up a portion of reality, such as the litter and the cracks in the older buildings. All that was apparent was the outline of the buildings with faint light cast upon them. 42 Student Life The newly risen moon shines through this tree near the Memorial Student Center.

Inner thoughts and concerns of the artist are apparent on this graffiti found on campus. Writing on the Walls Paintings Show Dorm Personalities The residents of Twin Tosvers West's third lloor chose to decorate the floor with an ocean scene which included this drawing of a dolphin. What gives a dorm personality? Most Marshall students agreed a coat of paint was a start. Many residents said by designing decorations for their floor, they displayed the personality of the floor, as Gena Collias, Sistersville sophomore, explained. Each floor has a personality all its own and by decorating the floor, that individuality was expressed. she said. And. individuality was expressed in many ways, ranging from cartoon characters to exotic settings in the girls' dorms. One interesting theme was found on the ninth floor of Twin Towers West. The girls on this floor decided the best way to describe their personality was through a far-away place the beach. The lower portion of the walls displayed sand with typical beach sights such as umbrellas and towels. The upper portion of the wall depicted the ocean and sky. Maria Curia, t tepseba sophomore, explains the floor's choice. That's where we wish we were. Buskirk Hall, another all-women dorm, also had Garfield and Odie were the dominant characters on the third floor of Twin Towers West. a variety of floor decorations. The girls on the fourth floor chose a scene from a popular comic strip. Bloom County. The scene included the funky penguin. Opus, and the outrageous Bill the Cat from Berke Breathed's worid. The men's dorms on the other hand, were dominated by such themes as a lost treasure scene. The guys in Twin Towers East chose another approach when decorating their floors. For example, the fourth floor resembled the bottom of an ocean. Walls displayed various types of ocean creatures, including a shipwreck complete with a mermaid. The background was painted dark blue to help express the mystical atmosphere. Many students felt that by working together to plan floor decorations, a special friendship was created among the participants. Some proiects took as long as three months to complete. That meant much time spent working together. When you work with others that closely, you can't help but become friends, explained Sarah lustice.

In a random survey, students expressed just how individual they could be. Most answered the questionnaire in their own unique way, not being influenced by their friends' opinions. The answers varied as much as those who took the poll ... As a matter of fact, no two surveys were remotely alike. Some preferred the old types of music and movies to the new.

They provided a chance for people to participate athletically even if they weren't on a varsity team. Many group sports were offered. Residence hall floors and fraternities formed the teams for these. The activities included basketball, volleyball, water polo and many others. There were also individual sports offered. Tennis, badminton and racquetball were just a few offered. Co-ed events were also offered in the form of darts, two-on-two basketball and beach volleyball.

Ball put in his personal best in the 10,000m at the University of Virginia Invitational with a time of 31 min. 6 sec. The leadership provided by Stewart had positive influences on young team members, which was crucial since Brachna was depending on the freshmen to run the races of their lives to help out the team in the SC Tournament. The women's season provided some exciting moments as Debbie Dukes ran the fastest women's 5,000m ever by a Marshall runner. Her time of 18:06 was set at the University of Virginia Invitational. The women defeated Last Tennessee State for the first time ever this season and came the closest ever to defeating Pastern Kentucky, falling behind by only three points.

These loners” have a wide variety of sports to choose from at Marshall. The two weight rooms in the Henderson Center provided opportunities to use either free weights or Nautilus equipment. There were also exercise bikes and rowing machines at students' disposal. For others who preferred more active sports, there were also facilities available. Eight tennis courts were located around campus so crowded courts were usually not a problem. There were eight racquetball courts located in the Henderson Center for those who preferred to stay indoors to exercise. Students also had access to racquets and ball for the game through the Intramural Office. Running was also a popular activity among many students as well as faculty members.

Other important individuals, then, go unrecognized even though they are a vital part of the team. During a sporting event, a player was injured. Who then had the responsibility of providing that player immediate medical attention? Sports trainers were vital to the team's performance. Football players especially valued the capabilities of the trainers mainly because of the large possibilities of injury in the sport. Jeff Wood, Watseka, III., junior, said that without the trainers, the team would not be at its peak performance. Other sports also relied on trainers a great deal. Baseball and basketball also incorporated trainers into their programs. Even though the trainers were instrumental in their efforts, without them college sports would not have been as high in quality. Immediate attention is c rucial to a player's in- from further injury.

Molina Pets Enhance Student Life Human companions were usually most students' choice. A few students, however, chose to have friends who were animals ... Pets were some students' answer to loneliness or depression. Pets offered a companionship that couldn't be found among humans. According to Kim Mitchell, Grafton sophomore, pets were good listeners as well as secret-keepers. A student's choice of pets was usually reflective of his personality. Some chose hamsters, others chose dogs or cats, while others were a little more creative with snakes for pets. Many, however, had to settle for fish because of housing restrictions. Those living in the residence halls were only allowed to have fish for pets. Many apartment buildings around Huntington also didn't allow pets.

Newsome Sophomores 125 Letters from home add spice to life Most students found it difficult living away from home. Getting letters from friends and family usually, however, offered some comfort. Students who lived in the residence halls looked forward to receiving letters and packages. Family members, especially grandparents, were more than happy to accommodate their lonely college student and sent cookies and other care packages. Most students agreed that a friendly letter from a far-away friend was the best cure for a depressing day. A letter from a friend you haven't heard from in a long time can sure brighten your day, especially if it is good news, Gena Collias, Sisterville sophomore, said. Care packages, especially those containing food, were greatly appreciated by residents of the dorms. Many considered them necessary for survival. According to Diana Long, Sutton freshman, packages from home help make life a little easier when living in the dorms. Dorm residents were not the only students who enjoyed getting mail. Students who lived off-campus looked forward to seeing the mail carrier each day. Apartments can get lonely and depressing too. There is just more room than in the dorms, Kim Harold, Spencer sophomore, said. Many considered academics and a social life to be the most important aspects of college life, but for many others, the bonds formed by the mail were equally as important.

Youngblood Freshmen 141 Walking In A Winter Wonderland When the cold weather settles in over Huntington, students and faculty alike are sure of one thing: the snow will get there. Many winters, the air turns nippy as early as October, but snow is delayed until January. But this winter, the first light sprinkling of snow came in November, followed by another during the first of December. While snow made beautiful scenes on campus everything from snow-dusted buildings, landscapes blanketed in white and iced-over local landmarks — not all students enjoyed the precipitation. Such weather brings with it bitter cold and wind and requires students to pull out all their heaviest clothes (even long underwear sometimes). Commuters often battled the white stuff to get to class; that fight included scraping windows and navigating slick roads. And those who walked whether they be were-or off-campus dwellers had to watch their steps on slick sidewalks. These minor problems, however, were bearable to many students who enjoyed the lovely change of scenery a snowy campus provided. to cUm! 0” °f 3 Warm' COZV dormroom',hes the snow to get 144 lust one sight of the beauties of winter, scenes such as these can be seen all over the campus during this time. I Not letting the snow put a damper on things, this student faithfully trudges to the library in order to hit the books. Cautiously walking, these loyal students found that maybe it wasn't worth it. 145 Before even thinking about standing in line, students selected a set of classes right for their careers. 146 Success depends on three things: who says it, what he says, how he says it and of these three things, what he says is the least important. John, Viscount Morley of Blackburn 147 There was always plenty to read for students in the College of Business. Lecturing to a class in the College of Business was Ron Bieber. Discussing some paperwork with a College of Business secretary was Steve Lahoda. 148 Academics Taking care of business Established at Marshall University in 1969, the College of Business educated students in every aspect of the business world, from management to economics. Seven departments make up the College of Business including accounting, computer and information science, economics, finance and business law, management, marketing and military science. There are several degree programs a student could have received, including bachelor of business administration, bachelor of science, master of business administration, master of arts in business education, master of science in accounting and a special program in military science. After selecting the college, students are assigned a faculty adviser in their designated major department and are provided full-time advising. In order to graduate, all students in the college are required to complete general university requirements. Taking a test were David Martin and Tim Scott. A class full of business students practiced working with computer systems.

Headed by Dr. 1 ester Bryant, several good things happened for the school. For the first time, two local hospitals were involved in a cooperative venture which also benefitted the school. A magnetic resonance imager (MRI) facility was placed on Marshall property — the corner of Sixth Avenue and 18th Street. The facility, one of 100 or so in the nation, served several patients daily through its sensitive scanning ability. The piece of diagnostic equipment was used to detect disorders of the nervous system, hearing, lungs, liver, kidney, brain and bones. The $2.7 million facility was a joint venture of St. Mary's Hospital and Cabell Huntington Hospital, and Keith Biddle, operations manager, said the clinic would benefit the entire community for years to come. Some new faces appeared at the school's facilities, as well. Dr. Mark Simmons joined the staff as an assistant professor in the Department of Pharmacology. Coming from Fmory University in Atlanta, Ga., he brought with him a $100,000 research grant to study nerve cell communication. The VA Medical Center, which acted as a university hospital for the medical school, greeted Timothy B. Williams as the new director. At the same time, the hospital acquired a $48 million clinical addition, which included 40 surgical beds and TO psychiatric beds. The VA also granted medical school faculty $400,000 in research grants. Seven VA-funded projects were conducted by six faculty members. Doing some paper work, third-year mod student Bob Anton fulfills one of his responsibilities. Med School 155 Med school center ot exciting studies It was a year of experimentation and discovery for the School of Medicine, but especially so in the area of infectious diseases. I he most exciting area of research at the School of Medicine was testing for a vaccine for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) vaccine. In August the Food and Drug Administration approved one brand of vaccine for testing by the National Institute of Health (NIH) in Bethesda, MD. Marshall's School of Medicine was one of five medical schools across the country selected for Phase II of the testing which would take place after several months of testing at NIH. The selection of subjects for the study got underway this year, according to Dr. Robert B. Belshe, head of the testing team, and others in- volved planned for the actual testing. Marshall's testing involved at least 25 subjects for each candidate vaccine. Doctors said they looked for young, healthy students to participate in the testing. They were required to answer a questionnaire, have a physical examination and blood work. They were chosen from a low-risk group and promised to follow safe sexual practices. In most subjects, doctors said, the only reactions expected were a slight fever and some swelling at the site of the injection. All in all, the vaccine was perfectly safe. Other schools involved in the testing procedures were Johns Hopkins University, Baylor University, University of Rochester and Vanderbilt University. Grazyna Grace Oraweic, lab niedical technician, conducts one of the several thousand viral tests run in the MU laboratory of Diagnostic Immunology each week. Sheryl Morris-Meyer works with living cells which are grown in biological research in infectious diseases ami in endocrinology. Checking living cells for evidence of virus infection is Dr. Robert Belshe. 15b Jean Read, lab medical technician, looks on as Dr. Robert Belshe conducts viral tests in the AIDS laboratory, a special facility constructed by the VA Medical Center to work with the virus that causes AIDS. Dr. Robert Belshe conducts tests on a potential croup vaccine. Dr. Maurice Mufson, chairman of medicine, works with pneumonia viruses from babies in Huntington. 15? St. Mary's Mixes Tradition and Practical Skills The St. Mary's School of Nursing underwent a significant change during the 1987-88 year as it accepted its first class under the new two-year program, a switch from the traditional requirement of three years. The school has been offering a nursing diploma for 62 years, and although the program has not been shortened, the school still provides its steady enrollment of students with numerous hours of clinical experience, the opportu- “The school attempts to guide its students to where they acquire knowledge, judgement and skills necessary to be a competent nurse.” — Ruth Jones, director nity to work as student nurses outside the school, and laboratory and classroom instruction. Upon graduation, students are eligible to take the state board examination to become a registered nurse. Its students spend plenty of time on the Marshall campus and in the classrooms. The school is affiliated with the university, and its curriculum requires students to take 30 hours of courses in the natural and behavior sciences, and hu- manities. I he school attempts to guide its students to where they acquire knowledge, judgement and skills necessary to be a competent nurse,” Ruth Jones, director of the school, said. “It's thoroughly stressed that learning is enhanced through repetition and practical application.” Nursing students help take blood at a blood drive. 158 Academics or Academics 159 f Daydreaming on the plaza, Mike Chapman reviews his notes before class.

Because of this, students find a number of creative ways to avoid hitting the books. Procrastination is probably the most popular method. Putting off until tomorrow what one can do today often ends in all-night cramming sessions and an endless stack of work collected on your desk. Daydreaming is another method. Students settle down with a clean sheet of paper and a poised pen, only to find their minds wandering to exotic locations and sexy men and women. Unfortunately they'll snap out of it only to find the pen stuck in their mouths and clean sheets of notebook paper. Studying with friends doesn't usually help. The books end up getting tossed in the corner while you talk about the movie you saw last weekend.

Mandatory advising new COLA guideline Say the words mandatory advising and many people immediately think of the College of Lib-eral Arts. Beginning with registration for the Spring semester COLA students were required to see their advisor and obtain schedule approval, according to Dr. Warren G. Lutz, associate dean of the college. The new rule was activated in an attempt to improve student -advisor contact and get people to be where they should be in their program. The COLA had the largest faculty on campus but, according to Dean Lutz, the college was still understaffed. We are serving a greater number of students than ever before with the least amount of faculty. The college added geography to its curriculum and worked with the Society of Yeager Scholars to create seminars that are part of that program. 162 oapTHENO Proof reading The Parthenon was Abbey Dunlap, staff member of the publication. Marshall graduate Craig Johnson wrote the play The Fighting 69th which was produced by the University Theater.

Conferencing on the telephone with a student was Dr. Robert Bickel, associate professor in educational foundations. Professors teach students to teach While it may sound strange, teaching must be learned. And teaching the skill of teaching was the service faculty in the College of Education provided education majors. In addition, the college was involved in the continuing education of all professional teachers in the state. Students in the College of Education and their professional counterparts were faced with the challenges of teaching our future generations. The education of soon-to-be teachers involved not only a number of courses to teach classroom methods and curriculum development, but also many hours of observing other teachers in action and student teaching. During student teaching, students conduct classes in area schools under the supervision of university and school advisers. The criticism from these advisers prepares them to enter the teaching profession. Student teaching is a lot more than it seems. It's not just up there and talking. I have to do lesson plans, fill out a register and take roll. I have to do everything a regular teacher does. Teaching looks easy to us as students because it becomes second nature after five or six years, said Chris Knott, Logan senior and biology student-teacher at Huntington East High School. 166 Academics Dr. Harry E.

Morrow Library. The installation of the VTLS system, a computerized card catalog, in 1983 helps cut the confusion. Librarians are constantly adding to the number of books and periodicals in the system. With a collection of 300,000 books this is a time-consuming task. The library offers an extensive collection of nearly 300 periodicals and newspapers from around the world, as well as a media room in which to view documents on microfilm and audiovisual materials. The Morrow Library is also a great place to find a complete section of government documents. The Great Confederate Collection, a set of Civil War documents, was donated to the library by Rosanna Black. In addition to the main collection of books housed in the Morrow Library, the library system has three branches. The Music Library is on the first floor of Smith Music Hall. Tapes, records, and some reference material are available here. On the lower level of the Community College is the Health Science Library, containing materials concerning the health sciences and related fields. The Chemistry Library provides current periodicals.

Organizations 211 Busy Students help run university You saw them everywhere. Work study students assisted professors and university personnel across the campus. Work study student jobs varied with the department in which they worked. The Parthenon employed two file wenches each semester to assist in filing newspaper articles, designing bulletin boards and helping whenever needed. My job gives me practical experience plus some extra money, said Rob Fouch, work study for The Parthenon. It's been an advantage in that I have more knowledge of how the newsroom is run than other freshmen. Other work study students were seen in the Memorial Student Center renting equipment in the recreation area and serving as secretarial help in offices. Students were able to schedule their work hours around class times. Michelle Schotl was called upon to serve The Parthenon in many ways as a work study student, including making and taking phone message's and helping with mailings. 212 Organizations Helping Kelli Muni gel some paper work started in the W.

The buildings provide the look and feel of the olden days, much to the pleasure of those who live in and visit the city. The textures and shapes of buildings provide interesting visuals to shoppers. City 237 Closing 239 A dedication ... from the staff As with most special projects in all disciplines, the time spent and energy exerted to produce this book brought the staff very dose together. Many weekends the staff spent long evenings — sometimes entire nights — putting together page after page of pictures and copy. We are grateful for the long hours spent working on this book because it gave us the opportunity to know Anita Kniceley, a very special person. Anita was People editor of this book, a Parthenon staff writer, a dedicated worker and an excellent student. She was killed January 14, 1988, in a car accident not far from her home in Braxton County. As we completed this book we realized how much a part of this project Anita was and how much we truly miss her. But Anita is not the only important person lost during the year. Many in the Marshall community experienced great personal losses of husbands, wives, brothers, sisters, friends. The Chief Justice of the 1987-88 academic year is dedicated to those we all have lost.

In a show of spirit the Big Green Marching Machine displayed its support on the field. 242 Precision marching and hours of intense practice were responsible for the intricate patterns created by the band. It got hot in those band uniforms, but as this band member shows, the heat didn't slow down the musicians in the marching band. Spirit was boosted when the brass section led the crowd in a verse of the school song.

Many other teams in the Conference had also had a season of ups and downs and coaches were optimistic going into the tournament.
