You can feel it the second you step foot on the red brick paths of the College Green, you can see it in the classrooms, and you can hear it at every athletic event. The pride of Ohio University is very much alive in Athens. It is engraved everywhere and the sentiment is campus-wide. That ' s why when people ask if we ' re from OU, we all proudly say, Oh Yeah! From the moment the land ordinance for the state of Ohio was passed in 1803, the Ohio General As- sembly established an act to found Ohio University. And in 1808 in a one-room schoolhouse on the Col- lege Green, one professor and three students founded the pride of OU. The central focus of the university. Cutler Hall, stands amidst the green ' s criss-crossing paths as a National Historic Landmark. We ' ve been around for over 180 years and if that doesn ' t shout our pride loud enough, we ' re the oldest school in the state. Today we ' re a classic college town situated in the heart of hills, rivers, lakes and forests.

The pride is alive in Athens picturesque, the Georgian architecture can take your breath away, and the small community greens which encompass the campus make small, homey neighborhoods for the students. In spite of OU ' s national historic acclaim, people still manage to confuse us with Ohio State Universi- ty. That ' s hard to believe since OU had been grant- ing degrees decades before OSU was even char- tered. OU ' s vanity overcomes this lack of popular knowl- edge as did Ohio Magazine when it stated, ... that if you need to ask the difference between the two you are not worth enlightening. In addition to living in Athens, Ohio, OU is a place that many of us have come to love and respect. This pride and dedication in OU is expressed in the more than 100,000 living alumni, 20,000+ students and 1,000 faculty and staff members. It is often said that there ' s no typical OU stu- dent. And it ' s true. We ' re a state college with stu- dents from every county in Ohio, from every state in the U.S. And from more than 90 different countries around the world. This is the magic of OU according to Dean of Stu- dents, Joel Rudy. Rudy said, A lot of what is learned at college happens outside the classroom and with the nature of the student body, that educational exposure is invaluable. We ' re large enough to offer lots of variety and yet small enough to appeal to the individual. Rudy stat- ed, We have seen a university move from one that questioned and was questioned for its commitment to excellence to a university that has been recognized in the state, in the country, and in the world as one that has achieved program excellence. Our Sports Administration program is considered the Harvard of sports medicine and our E.W. Scripps School of Journalism has more accredited sequences than most schools in the nation.

The pride is alive in Athens We have made medical history in genetic research while our photojournalists learn from a program ranked second-best of its kind. The strides in excellence don ' t end there. OU has the largest independent study program through correspondence available world-wide. Meanwhile we maintain a one of a kind honors tutorial program. Our students study abroad in exchange programs and head teacher training programs in places like Botsawana. We are also the only university to head a program such as the Business Administration Degree at Malaysia ' s MARA Institute of Technology. Encouraging more program excellence of this kind, there is more than $23 million granted each year in scholarships and financial aid. OU invests in its future and keeps the pride going strong and com- ing back. The pride began in Athens, but it will carry on in our lives, professional and otherwise, long after we graduate and leave the red brick paths of this campus. More Halloweens, MAC Championship titles, new facilities, big name concerts, loud, roaring trains passing through the campus and record-breaking events will happen and go on happening. These are the things forever engrained in our minds along with the friendships and all the other memories. You just can ' t stop feeling it, seeing it or hearing it because we have shouted it so loud in every way. And when we are asked or just think back on it we ' ll say, OU, Oh Yeah. [q] An hour between classes can tempt many students to sit on the College Green laivn for a little studying or a lot of re axing. Opening — 7 CAMPUS LIFE Ohio University might not be on the well beaten path, but the stu- dent body is involved and up to date on current events and national trends. And there ' s always something happen- ing. OU ' s voter registration push got 4,000 new voters signed up. Also, several stu- dents were active in campaigning for the candidate of their choice. The latest fashions can be seen on the streets and in the bars. And on and off Court Street there are a few new bars that the flourescent socks and cropped jeans can be seen. International fashion can also be seen around campus. OU is fortunate enough to have a large and involved international population. Each spring the students from abroad plan a week of ethnic festivities that cumulate in the International Street Fair. Reasons for celebration are never in short supply on OU ' s campus. Each in- dividual green has a weekend set aside during spring quarter. The granddaddy of them all, is the campus wide, ever popular, Springfest. Planned events aren ' t the only crowd drawers for OU parties. OU style Hal- loween is a very popular form of cele- bration. People come from all over to visit friends, get a little crazy and stroll along the infamous Court Street. Athens is not a forgotten town nestled away in the hills of Southeast Ohio. The popular duo of Hall and Oates paid us a visit. Also, the Milton Bradley Company shipped in over 300 Twister mats in an attempt to stage the world ' s largest Twister game! Even though OU might be a little out of the way, it ' s an active, strong, outgo- ing, noticed institution. Oh Yeah! cr Q a 3 3 Q ft ft) Campus Life 9 BAKER CENTER A college of student activities By Erin Sweeney Karen Sliman. vice president of CPB is found at her desk fianked by two of her friends heJping out. T3 aker Center — isn ' t that where D they cash checks? a student asks. Oh I know, there ' s a Jubilee machine in that building, another student said matter-of-factly. So just what is Baker Center? Ac- cording to Mike Sostrich, director of Student Life Programming, First and foremost Baker Center is a program for the university. We try to establish a comfortable atmosphere in which student programs are carried out for the student ' s benefit. Baker Center is essentially the living room of the uni- versity. The living room: Since when do you cash checks in a living room? a confused freshman commented, clutching an OU meal card and open check book. Baker Center is not just a four-story glorified check cashing facility. I think there are probably some offices or something up there, a sophomore squinted up at the ceiling, but I ' m not sure. In fact, the center houses student offices, programming committees, study rooms, meeting rooms, and many student services. Baker Center was built 30 years ago to house Ohio University ' s student union. At the time, the first two floors contained offices and the two upper floors were designated as dormitory rooms. The building ' s facelift occurred when students moved their belongings out and their desks in. The fourth floor concentrates on programming and contains the vague acronyms of CPB, PCC, BSCPB, SDS, and SLS. The centrally located programming office oversees the activities of CPB, BSCPB and PCC. The assistant direc- tor in charge of programming is tf Beverly Cohen. The BSCPB, or Black Students Cul- tural Programming Board, sponsors concerts, lectures, plays, and other cultural events representative of the Afro-American culture for Ohio Uni- versity students. Nestled in between the Springfest office and PCC, the Student Lecture Series offers intellectual stimulation through the thoughts of personalities from different fields in life, accord- ing to Jonathon Hutchings, SLS Presi- dent. SLS often co-sponsors lectures with student organizations and pro- vides a directory of speakers for campus groups. 10 — Campus Life A A - X LASTCHAUCI poutkm . x ;.- Hi IS i-4 '  « _ Tim Geoghegan The Frontier Room offers the students a taste of local talent.

SDS works closely with judi- ciaries and students to advise on punishment. The third floor boasts a host of meeting rooms and student offices, in- cluding the Student Activities Office. The Student Activities Office is the place to start if you want to become involved in any sort of student organi- zation. It publishes a list of organiza- tions along with the names and phone numbers of the current president or chairman. Terry Hogan, Director of Student Activities, along with Nance Lucas, Assistant Director of Student Activities, are determined to make student organization involvement a re- warding experience through leader- ship programs and the publication of Campus Connection, the Ohio Univer- sity newsletter for campus organiza- tions. The Athena Yearbook office, BACCHUS, SAC, Student Senate, SES, and Greek Councils are all located on this floor. BACCHUS is a nationally affiliated organization committed to alcohol awareness through dorm program- ming. Mixology and a virgin bar? No problem — BACCHUS sponsors a program just for responsible party planning. BACCHUS isn ' t against drinking we ' re here to provide counseling referrals and to encourage responsible drinking, said President Lori Eskeck. The Student Activities Commission funds various student organizations based on quarterly program outlines and monetary requests. Student Escort Service, manned largely by the Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity, provides an option for the student walking alone after dark. Members escort as well as dispatch. The Athena staff is dedicated to producing a quality yearbook repre- sentative of the multi-faceted life at Ohio University. Members copywrite, photograph and edit the student-run publication. Traveling down yet another set of stairs, the visitor confronts the mainly administrative second floor. Made up of meeting rooms, a ballroom and the Alurnni Lounge, it also contains the Student Life Programming office. Mike Sostrich. director of student life, can be found in room 205. The first floor, yes, has check cashing and a Jubilee machine. But it also contains many student services such as typing rooms, a directory of all registered students, two local phones, a TV lounge and a study lounge complete with a piano. The desk sells such items as pencils and pens; it also hands out literature on various topics. Below the main desk is the ground floor which includes the offices of the Post; Suzi Greentree ' s, a local eatery; and the Frontier Room. Although the Frontier Room has a spring quarter reputation as the place to hang out in the sunshine on the beer garden walls, it is primarily in- tended as a programming device. Pro- gramming is done six nights a week to expose movies, comedy and cultural experiences. The Baker Center basement con- tains a recreation room, the bike and camping shop and a bowling alley. Baker Center ' s diversity may seem confusing to the average freshman, but within its walls are housed the central functioning organs of all student life activities. Every committee needs dedicated members and the diverse offerings of Baker Center accomodate the interests of every student at OU.

It was the beginning of a gang led event, as 908 Ohio University students played Twister, The game that ties you in knots. It was advertised as the World ' s Largest Twister Game and it was the thing to do on college campuses Spring Quarter of ' 84. The OU version was held in Byrd Arena on Saturday, April 28. The Center Program Board sponsored the game, which was co- ordinated by CPB member Kelley Al- len. The Black Student Center Program Board P.R.S.S.A. and members of Alpha Phi Omega assisted in registering players and refereeing the game. Ohio University held the title for the largest game for two weeks before Colgate University, in New York, broke the record with 1138 partici- pants. Students began packing into Byrd at 10:30 to register. The game didn ' t start until noon, and some people left to grab lunch, while others took a seat and eyed the floor of the Arena. It was covered with Twister mats. The game began with a set of rules and an announcement that free Twister shirts would be awarded as participants lost in the game. Music was played between rounds and stu- dents danced and cheered while waiting for the next round to begin. Many students started out playing on a mat with people they knew, but through elimination and consolidation ended up with strangers by about the third round. People became fast friends, though, when their nose is pressed into someone else ' s knee. The game lasted approximately three hours and 24 rounds. The crowds were cheering when the win- ner was announced. The champion twister of Ohio U. was Junior Rick Amiet, a civil engineering major from Applecreek, Ohio. Amiet said that he and a couple of friends decided to play because of the lure of a free t- shirt. Amiet was given his own Twister game for winning. When asked how he felt after winning the event, Amiet replied, I was too ex- hausted to think about it, but later I realized that I won and I was thrilled to know that I was the winner of 900 people. The knots were all untied by late afternoon and everyone went home — maybe a little tired and maybe a little grimy, but in agreement that it was indeed a very large Twister Game. qj â– ci - A 14 — Campus Life Twister Game — 15 Dividing the south and east greens are the tracks of the Chessie railway. Jeff Mirgon RAILROADS The tribulations of life across the tracks By Michelle Cofta The residents of South Green have that special acquired status of liv- ing across the tracks , the railroac tracks that is! The railway affects no ' only the South Green but almost al the students on campus in some way usually it ' s the noise. The residents of South Green have to deal with this railway daily; cross- ing it to go to and from classes or up I town. The train can make you late fo. class or simply put you behind sched ule if you have to wait for it. So it ' : not unusual to see students bolt a.| soon as they hear its shrill whistle That noise is easv for those who livi 16 — Campus Life here to get used to, but those who are new to campus may find it difficult to sleep with the bustling train cruising hrough campus at 4 a.m. You can ' t jse it as an alarm clock though, since he timetable varies daily with the ine. Not many students, however, know axactly where the train goes or even what it carries. The Chessie Systems •ail line circumscribes the College and Sast Greens. This line is used exclu- iively by the Chessie Systems and its lain function is to transport chemi- cals from Chillicothe to the Ashland Chemical Plant in Parkersburg, West Virginia. The train journeys through campus approximately four to seven times daily and is considered one of their heavier-used lines. The West Green area, although sep- arated on the map, doesn ' t have to deal with the train except in terms of noise. Student safety, not convenience, is the main concern for the risks, in- volved in people crawling under the train, or walking home from up town after a night on Court Street are fairly serious. Students have become accustomed to the rail line which winds through the university on its way Parkersburg or Chillicothe. To some of us it ' s a small reminder that life does exist outside Athens, to others it ' s merely a hinderance. But no matter what your view it can be agreed upon that the railway gives Ohio University a distin- guishing feature to be remembered. Railroads 1 7 BARS_ Old places, new faces by Amy I. Schneider As I strolled down memory lane the other night, I noticed that few memories were gone. Gone was the Phase and Mug and Margarita; open and hopping with new action is now Pawpurr ' s and Gee Willeckers. I met the two new bars with mixed emotions. On one hand I wished it could be like my freshman days. On the other, I hoped an exciting experience would result from my first visit. Pawpurr ' s is more conservative than the infamous meat market of the Phase, but Tuesday ' s drink and drown still rocks the place. The unique oval shaped bar is gone, but the beer spe- cials, the flirting and the challenges of the Phase lingers on. Talking about unique bars, Mug and Margarita ' s rally in the alley and Bucket Night had its own crowd. I was happy to see Gee Willeckers continuing the bucket tra- dition but afraid that the traditional fun would be missing. I ' m happy to report that the buckets are still overflowing and the beer games, dancing and nostalgic scenery are still abounding. For those who remember M M ' s, the memories aren ' t gone, just replaced with new ones. A totally new bar located beneath Artifacts Gallery on Court Street is the Grotto. The Grotto is a quiet drinking and dining establishment which hosts some live bands, if not all of the best reggae and jazz bands. For live, up- beat entertainment in a pleasant atmosphere, the Grotto is the place for you. Other new social spots, such as the upstairs of the Greenery and CJ ' s bar are just additions and revovations to old familiar buildings. The Greenery expanded their business by clearing all the rooms on the second floor to make way for the new dance floor and bar. This expansion was a neces- sity in a college town that only had one bar for dancing, The Nickelode- on. Century House replaced the Bakery with a bar. CJ ' s bar is a comfortable place for a get together among friends and couples. The bar has cleared the old kitchen and now a bar, booths, a dance floor and live DJ ' s can be found there. CJ ' s has several specials during the week with their own DJ ' s playing everyone ' s favorite hits. It was great to see the business people of Athens finally upgrading the quality of their bars. Hangar 5 is another new bar lo- cated far from Court Street on Mill- iron closer to the east and south greens. Originally known as Tool ' s Tavern, this bar is a converted ware- house. Hangar 5 has chain link fences to resemble runways, and other air- plane memorabilia to get a person in the spirit. The bar includes two bars, a live DJ and a stage for live bands along with plenty of picnic tables. 18 — Campus Life Students head to Gee Willeckers following a rough day to relax and talk over a buck- et of beer.

Wi 20 — Campus Life -REGFESL- Beer brings voters out By Lisa Abraham Tim Geoghegan Despite its title, Regfest was not a reggae music festival sponsored by Student Senate. Similar to a mini Springfest, Reg- fest, which stands for Registration Festival, was sponsored by the Stu- dent Vote Campaign ' 84. On September 28 Senate members took over the Putnam playing fields for the purpose of registering students to vote. Despite the cold weather, close to 800 new students were signed up to vote in Athens. The idea for Regfest was the brain- child of Vote campaign manager Scott Treibitz. Regfest had all the elements of a great outdoor festival — bands, beer, and food. Voter registration tables made the only difference. Treibitz was pleased with the success of Regfest because it was planned in such a short time. As the kickoff for nearly two weeks of voter registration activity, Senate and the Vote campaign committee were pleased with the success of Regfest. However, the Vote campaign was busy for most of fall quarter register- ing and educating student voters. I would consider Regfest a great success. The Student Vote campaign ' 84 committee deserve a lot of credit. said Senate vice-president Scott Elisar. Elisar was responsible for Senate ' s very successful 1983 registration drive which registered over 4,000 students. Vote campaign committee members set up registration tables at the college gate and in the cafeterias on campus. Despite their efforts, however, this year ' s total was sizeably smaller than last year ' s — with only about 2,500 total students registered. Treibitz was still very pleased with this year ' s outcome. I think of every new voter we ' ve registered as a plus, he said, we now have 2,500 more pluses in this election. According to Treibitz, OU rated high in the state again, proportionately registering more students to vote than any other state university in Ohio. Ohio State registered 5,000 students but percentage wise that ' s not a lot of people at all, Treibitz said. [%] Malhew Zwick puts his name in as a registered American voter.

Schneider After going through the trials and tribulations of dorm life, things can only get better, right? That all depends on where you live and who you lease from! The day has come. You ' ve finally earned enough hours and convinced your parents that you ' re ready to move off-campus. But are you really? Do you realize all the disadvantages you may en- counter? Unless you carefully go over each stipulation and get the landlords to write-in further promises, you may be in for the student sting. But some things aren ' t covered in the contract. Some freak accidents do occur. You ' ve got to take everything into account. After the lecture your parents lay on you, it ' s time to look at it through a student ' s point of view. Almost guaranteed, it ' ll be about the best time of your life. Sure, there are some disadvantages, so make the advantages out-weight them! Just think, no more cabin fever enclosed in those four drab brick walls. As far as entertainment goes, the ist is endless. (Athens police are slower than a resident assistant.) Get- togethers and parties are by far the biggest advantage and privilege of the off-campus elite. All in all, it ' s an experience in freedom and responsibility.

FRESHMEN An ode to freshmen By Kim Walker We all have to start somewhere, and it ' s at the bottom where we build the foundation of our future. Freshmen are the novice youngsters their first quarter at OU, the people we love to pick on and joke about just for the fun of it. We laugh at their clothes, laugh at their friends, and even tease them about wearing new white sneak- ers on the first day of classes. We glare at them in the cafeteria, play Twenty Questions when we meet them at a bar, and treat them like children just to get on their nerves. A freshman is an individual, a per- son with thoughts and ideas of his or her own; someone who, like the rest of us, has a dream to fulfill. The thing that makes freshmen so different from the rest of us, however, is the excitement they feel about the future. They ' re anxious to be somebody, a desire which doesn ' t always last and is often hard to find. Nevertheless, everyone, including freshmen, has ex- perienced community showers, hall elections, weekend road trips and hangovers, ignoring quiet hours and driving their neighbors crazy. Fresh- men are people too. It ' s still easy to pick a freshman out in a crowd. First of all, they all have these silly smiles on their faces and are dressed in new school clothes. They don ' t go anywhere alone, except to the bathroom, and they don ' t skip classes, at least not in the first few weeks anyway. They sit near the front in a lecture room, gain weight on cold pizza and cry when they don ' t get mail on a holiday. Freshmen are teens. Freshmen are adults. They are people on the road to becoming whomever they are going to be. That is, if they can survive cafete- ria food, obnoxious roommates and drink- -drown. They ' ve got such a long way to go, yet they ' ve come so far. Young and inspired, they go on fantasizing, hoping someday to be a surgeon, a journalist, or maybe even a presidential candidate. Nevertheless, they are humans and should be looked at like the rest of us, for they will spend the next four years of their lives dreaming in green and white too. njn The Freshman Story 25 Volunteera Athens Mental Health Center By Kimberly Clawson To most students, the Athens Mental Health Center is a strange place. Few ever consider visiting the patients on the bus trips up to the center, unless of course, it ' s required for a class. Carlene Breedlove was one of the students required to visit the AMHC for her sociology class. She figured it was easier than writing a paper, which was her only alternative. The more time I spent there, the more attached I became, said Carlene. Now Carlene is a resident volunteer at the AMHC. She ' s a junior, studying criminology and psychology. Living at the mental health center gives Carlene the opportunity to inter- act with the patients on a regular basis. She feels that her close relationship with many patients will help her in her career. Carlene hopes to become a counselor in the judicial system, working mainly with the criminally in- sane. She works often with the patients in developing their social and communi- cation skills. In addition, she takes them on outings to McDonalds, bowling and field trips around the community. Although Carlene works with all types of patients at the center, she has a special interest in the younger resi- dents. She feels that it ' s important for the younger people to talk to a peer. Most of the residents and workers at the center are older. Therefore she spends some extra time being a good friend to someone her own age. The AMHC was contracted in 1868 and completed in 1874. It was originally called the Athens Lunatic Asylum. Carlene admits it ' s a little different living up on the hill as a volunteer. But after a short while she has become accustomed to the atmosphere and en- joys her work very much. It ' s not an illusion, people running around in white coats, it ' s just like an y other hospital, said Carlene. Larry Lankas, director of student volunteers at AMHC said, Carlene Breedlove is doing an excellent job. EB Tim Geo hegan Athens Mental Hospital volunteers stand outside the Class Gateway for evening com- muter buses. 26 — Campus Life Many students volunteer at the Mental Hospital for cJass extra credit or practical experience. Carlene Breed is one of the few dedicated understaff members who care for the mentally in- sane. Tim Geoghegan Tim Gcoghegan Athens Mental Hospital — 27 Where ' s our Money Going There ' s more to it than tuition By Gretchen E. Jenkins Jeanine Ward Jt takes a large amount of money to keep this University going, and yet the sources of that money are quite vast . The source that most of us think about is the student ' s tuition. What happens to the money each one of us pays? According to William Kennard, Ohio University ' s treasurer, the tuition that we as students pay is 43% of all the money spent to run the university. Compare this figure to the 47% contrib- uted by the State of Ohio and the 7% from the federal government. The money does not stop coming. During the fiscal year 1984 OU took in $12,731,940 for research and sponsored programs. Each year Adam J. Marsh, manager. Office of Research and Spon- sored Programs compiles a report of the money coming to the university through professors ' solicitations for funds to do research or develop special programs. Marsh ' s report breaks down the university into colleges, then each college into departments. Through the Office of Research and Sponsored Programs the money comes through in one of two forms, either for externally sponsored programs or for externally sponsored research pro- grams. Under the category of externally sponsored programs roughly $9 million found its way to our campus. Several interesting projects were undertaken by our professors. In the College of Arts and Sciences Ernest Johansson of the English department headed a project entitled, Books our Children Read: Communication through Literature. For his project Johansson acquired roughly $62,000 to create a film which was shot at Fort Frye High School in Beverly, Ohio. The film debuted in April and received the honor of a mentioning at the Athens International Film Festival. The second channel which money comes into the office of Research and Sponsored Programs is through externally sponsored research pro- grams. The University received around $3.5 million in this area. In the College of Osteopathic Medicine, Dr. Walter J. Costello of the department of Basic Sci- ences received $20,000 from the Mus- cular Dystrophy Association for his re- search in the area of Genetic Analysis of Neurotrophic Influences in a Developing Motor System. Dr. Costello ' s project has been ongoing since January 1983 and has a prior funding of $20,000. These are only a few of the projects underway in all areas of the University. So you can see that it takes more than students to keep our school going and we are not the only people in- volved. As Students and members of the Ohio University community we can take pride in our school, as the Beach ] Boys sing, Be true to your school. Wej not only educate students, but we aidj the world with research developments! and breakthroughs achieved on our campus. So when we look to the future we have the knowledge that the people of Ohio University are making the world a better place to be. fj ] 28 — Campus Life Staff photo A student ' s wallet gets a work-out in four years.

Where ' s Our Money Going? — 29 Why come to OU? Out-of-staters find it worthwhile too By Laura Sutkus â– i An outstanding pho- tography curriculum brought feff VonHoene all the way from Bir- mingham, Alabama. Lynda, Paul, Jeff, Henning and Mooi. They are five individual stu- dents, yet they have one common char- acteristic. Each one has traveled hun- dreds and even thousands of miles from their homes to attend Ohio Uni- versity. Why did each of them leave the se- curity of family and friends to begin a new life at Ohio University? Lynda Flory from LaFayette, Calif., said she came to Athens because OU offered her a full swimming scholar- ship. She was offered scholarships at other universities, however, most of them were located on the west coast. I wanted to live where there was snow, she said, explaining why she chose OU over the other universities. The OU institutional research office reports that 17 percent of OU students are from out-of-state. The office also said that 49 out of the 50 states are re- presented by students at Ohio Univer- sity. The only state not currently repre- sented is Wyoming. The civilian branch of the Air Force Institute of Technology is what brought Paul Blanzy all the way from Melborne, Fla. to Athens. The institute let Blanzy choose between the Univer- sity of Florida and Ohio University. I chose Ohio University because of the different climate, he said. I also wanted to see what was going on in the north. The outstanding photography curriculum is the reason I chose to transfer here, said Jeff VonHoene, a photography major. VanHoene originally from Birmingham, Ala., transferred to OU from Auburn University in Auburn, Ala. I like the adventure of being in the north. he said. In addition to out-of-state students, a substantial proportion of Ohio Univer- sity ' s student body is composed of stu- dents from abroad. International students come to OU from 84 countries world-wide, with the largest population of students coming from Malaysia. Foreign students account for 10 percent of OU ' s population. This percentage is the highest among state supported universities in Ohio. On the average, other universities in Ohio have a 3-6 percent population of international students. Like Flory, Henning Klemp, from Oslo, Norway, came to OU on a swim- ming scholarship. A few of Klemp ' s friends had come to OU a few years before him and told the swimming coach about Klemp ' s swimming abilities.

Her hair was short and blonde on top with a six inch black tail in the back. She wore three earrings in each ear and the button on her shirt read, Wearing buttons is not enough. My friend turned to me, lifted an eyebrow and murmured, Trendy. I took off my Risky-Business-sun- glasses-on-a-string, to get a better look. We all, in one way or another, succumb to the latest trends and fads on campus. During the warm weather students can be found playing Hacky Sack on | all parts of the campus. You know, that -f game with the little round ball, where u everyone stands around in a circle. P while the ball ricochets off various knees and feet. Another fad that hit the entire country was the popular game of Trivial Pursuit. It was a challenge to many minds and in many circles winning was anything but trivial. Many of the trends were brought on through favorite, popular performers. The Madonna look was a huge hit, which included hair tied with rags and gloves with stub cut fingers. A store advertised gloves with or without. Michael Jackson ' s style influenced many people with his voice and flashy clothes. It can be pretty easily assessed that soon the day-glow orange will be used to wash the car, and the hacky ball will be placed in a drawer somewhere to make room for something else. Afterall, where are your elephant pants and yo- yo ' s? % Bracelets varying in thickness and style are the way to go when Julie Moore wants to complete her outfit for the day.

Wallick Fashion, people wear it and improve upon it, but what is it? There ' s really no one way to define it nor one way to do it. Yet fashion, year in and out, can define almost anyone ' s personality and lifestyle. Designs for ' 85 pointed in many directions. With OU ' s diversity, that reason is clear. Main emphasis for the year however, can be narrowed down to fashion from the waist up. With America ' s old stan- dard, the blue jean, providing fashion ' s building block, every college student was sure to have more than one pair in his or her closet. However, over the past few years new twists on the old western style have been made. The look of blue jeans has never been better. New pat- terns, colors, textures, with an array of zippers, snaps, pockets and leg shapes have added dimension to the once plain blue jean making it a fashionable asset. As for the look from the waist up, designs continue to be preppy, with argyle sweaters and vests, as well as sporty, with rugby shirts and sweatshirts. Adding to the list, but cer- tainly not completing it, is the trendy new wave look in bright colors and oversized styles. The leather and lace of punk attitudes is still very much the look to have. Students are known to sport a little of every style during their stay at college. Although the look from the waist up AH designs of ean jackets were the most preferred jnbetiveen season coat.

Ear piercing, hand gloving and waist belting have been recycled and inno- vated by both guys and gals. Outfits for ' 85 wouldn ' t be complete without that certain pair of shoes, jacket or cardigan sweater. There ' s really no one way to define fashion, but one thing is for sure, peo- ple will continue to dress in jeans and just add to the look from the waist up. Who ' s to say what fashion will be from year to year. As for defining fashion, well, there ' s no one way to do it. But you can bet it will continue to define the times and the people who wear it. Uf] Fashion ' 85 — 35 PARENTS A special time with the folks By Kim Walker les, it ' s that time of the year again. The first planned weekend for your parents, better known as Parents Weekend. It ' s the first time you actu- ally remember to change your sheets and water your plants. It ' s the morn- ing you jumped out of bed instead of rolled out and then hopefully dis- guised you most recent late night out- ing with a smile. It is one of the fa- vorite occasions during fall quarter, not to mention one of your best trips Krogering. Yes, we love getting visits from our parents. Our heads stand higher for some reason, our clothes appear clean and ironed for the first time all quar- ter and there is a warm sentimental feeling swimming in our hearts. The morning is mostly busy work, like making the bed, washing dirty dishes and sweeping. We find our- selves dressing in our best clothes and possibly even being ready on time. The arrival is dramatic. When you see the family car drive up, your heart leaps with excitement and even more so when you see the care pack- age of goodies from home. But the game is about to begin so you rush over to Peden Stadium and search for seats near the thirty yard line. Within minutes, the Bobcats have scored. What then could be more exciting than a grand appearance at half-time Christopher Powers by the Marching 110. They serenade you with new tunes and entertain you with amusing dance drills. But the Bobcats could not walk away with the victory. The game ended in a tie, 17 all. After the game you and your par- ents find a nice place to grab a bite to eat. Over a few cold beers you inform them of your grades, your newly pledged honorary or social group, un- usual profs or interesting classes and describe the personalities of all your new friends whom you know they ' ll just love! During the evening there are many activities planned. You and your folks might attend the Black Organizational Expo and later the Weekend Twilight Concert or East Green Spotlight. There are films, dinners, speeches and parties. So much to do in so little time. When the visit from your parents comes to an end, you walk them to the car to say your goodbyes. Some- how it feels like you are saying good- bye for the first time all over again. But you are no longer a timid begin- ner, but a mature and independent college student. It is not until later that day when no one else is around that you open your heart and remi- nisce on a very special weekend spent with very special people, [gf] 36 — Campus Life Sporting two variations of Bobcat war paint are freshman Brian fhrig and Ben Gelfand.

President Ping Up close and personal By Gemma Eiswerth The people at Ohio University seem more friendly than people at most other colleges and universities. Perhaps it ' s the diversity of people that come here that makes people more open. OU also has a very aesthetic campus. Those are two of the things that drew Presi- dent Ping to this university. Ping says that when he first thought about taking on the job as the number one administrator here at OU, it was primarily the people that drew him here. Once he started visiting the campus he could tell it was a place people felt very deeply about. When asked to describe OU, Ping said, it ' s a cosmopolitan campus, in a rural setting. You get the best of both. He went on to explain, the heavy international population and the range and sophistication of academics make it cosmopolitan-like. The physical geo- graphical make-up and location are very rural. Ping has spent most of his career in the university life. He ' s been president here for 10 years. Before coming to OU he taught philosophy at four different institutions, was the dean of faculty at Tusculum College, a liberal arts college and was provost of Central Michigan State University. He enjoys teaching and he ' s glad he is able to do some- thing he likes and feels is important. Born in Philadelphia. Ping grew up all over the country. His father worked for the public health department, so the family moved quite often. As an undergrad he went to Southwestern at Memphis. He went on to get graduate degrees in philosophy and theology, with a Ph.D from Duke University. As as undergrad Ping was very in- volved in athletics and student government. He was the president of his senior class, president of the honors society, president of his residence hall and an officer in a fraternity. He also said, I studied a lot, too. Now Ping spends a lot of his free time swimming or reading. He also likes to golf, although he doesn ' t have much time to fit it in. Another thing he enjoys but doesn ' t have much time for, is woodworking. The family owns a cottage in the lower part of Michigan ' s Upper Peninsula. The framework was all up, but Ping has been building the inside, cabinets and other interior finishings, for the last 20 years. Ping is married and has two chil- dren. His son, Andrew, is in his third year of medical school and his daugh- ter Ann is married and living in England. She just had a baby boy, Sam. Being the first grandchild, Ping says, he ' s our pride and joy. Last year almost saw the transfer of President Ping to Oregon State Univer- sity. But OU still has its 18th president, and we ' re glad he ' s here for his 10th anniversary. [%] Summer brought the pre-college event, meet the President.

President Ping — 39 JVIASCOL OU ' s best kept secret By Amy I. Schneider lnother trivia question for you! Who is Ohio University ' s best, cutest and longest-lasting couple? Right! The Bobcat and Bobkitten! Ohio University was always known either as Ohio or the Green and White. However, thanks to Hal H. Howland, a former student, O.U. is now known as the Bobcats. In 1925, the athletic board decided the university needed an offi- cial nickname, so the members spon- sored a contest. Hundreds of names poured in. After much debate, the bobcat won out. Some 35 years later, on October 1, Homecoming 1960, at 2 p.m., an ani- mal sprang from under the west stands of Peden Stadium; gave the Redskin mascot a menacing sneer and signaled victory for Ohio. The crowd stood and went wild! The rest is history. (The Bobcats also defeated bitter rival Miami for the first time in 14 years and thus, became known as the good luck charm. ) The animal was the bobcat clad in a bright green sweater with an Ohio baseball cap perched at a cocky angle on his paper-mache head. Now the best part ... it was all a gift from the men of Lincoln Hall. They decided to donate something perma- nent to the university — the symbolic Ohio University Bobcat. The first task was to make sketches for the costume and then make a real suit. The head, being the most complex part of the costume, was sent to France for construction because the workmanship was less expensive. Bob Wojcieszak Total cost was $250, which was tak- en from the Social Fund of Lincoln Hall. One final pending question con-j fronted the committee. Who was going to make the mascot live? Because of the suit ' s size, the per-J son wearing it could not exceed 5 ' 11 I in height. Dan Nichols, class of ' 63. was the first Mr. Bobcat. He set] precedent that all Mr. Bobcats must live in Lincoln Hall. Campus Affairs Committee decided that the Bobcat would be a permanent member of the cheerleading squad and would cheer at all football and basketball games. Although keeping the identity of the! Bobcat can be difficult, the mascot dresses at the game and does other things to ensure secrecy. For instanced one (student) will do half the game and another will do the other half taj confuse people. In Lincoln Hall, try- ing to discover the Bobcat ' s identity if the big thing , but few students suc- ceed. 40 — Campus Life i So now you know the rest of the story. As far as the Bobkitten history goes, there ' s not a thing listed in Archives. Thanks to some family resources, it is known that the Bobkitten originally was initiated by the girls of Howard Hall. Because the dorm was torn down in 1972, the Bobkitten outfit was left vacant. Going way beyond the call of school spirit and loyalty, sec- ond alternate Bobcat Steve Schneider proudly filled the Bobkitten mascot that fall. These days the Bobkitten is worn only by the sisters of Chi Omega. How the suit ' s place of origin changed ihowever, is unknown. No matter how tough-looking the opponent ' s mascot may be, the Bobcat always seems to psyche him out with •his cool attitude and the Bobkitten is always right by his side. Indeed, the Bobcat and Bobkitten are by far O.U. ' s best couple. May they live happily ever after. fif A usual sight at all athletic games is the parading Bobcat and Hob Kitten.

An es- timated 8,000 alumni came back to re- new old friendships and continue old traditions. There was something for everyone to enjoy during the weekend. Along the entertainment line, the School of Theater presented the comedy Bus Stop and famed jazz musician Dizzy Gillespie entertained a sold out audi- ence at Memorial Auditorium. The weekend started off with the Konneker Golf Classic, followed by President Ping ' s annual State of the University address. The evening con- cluded with the annual Homecoming bonfire and pep rally at Peden Stadium to get everyone into the spirit for Satur- day ' s game. Saturday ' s activities began with the Homecoming parade down Court Street. The clear, sunny day was perfect for parade-goers to enjoy the many spirit of Athens themed floats, the always exciting OU Marching 110 and the Alumni Band, which puts on a good show of its own, kept the spirit go- ing. It was perfect football weather, Boh Uojocieszak which is rare to Athens, to watch the Bobcats take on Kent State. Unfortunately OU lost the game, but the enthusiastic crowd cheered throughout the game with the delivery of the game ball by ski-divers, and the announcement of Delta U psilon and Sigma Kappa as winners in the float competition. The weekend ' s activities culminated with the announcement of Regina Rose as this year ' s Miss Black Homecoming Queen. She was crowned after raising $573.24 for the Blackburn-Spencer scholarship fund. The coronation took place at the Homecoming Ball, spon- sored by the Black Student Cultural Programming Board. All in all, it was possible for every- one to catch the spirit sometime during the weekend.

Wallick Big Bam Boom! Sounds like something from a dyna- mite explosion doesn ' t it? Well that ' s almost what happened November 7th at the Convocation Center as Daryl Hall and John Oates performed their Big Bam Boom tour. Although in direct competition with the national election 6,000 people put those thoughts aside for an hour and a half and listened to the popular group perform on campus. OU ' s first real big name concert in the Convo since Neil Young proved to campus concert organizers that Athens can be a good market for popular top-40 performers. Pop Concert Committee President Adam Caskey stated, The PCC wanted to stay away from the traditional concerts presented at OU in the past and break new ground. We feel we did that with Hall and Oates. He also felt that the PCC established OU as a viable concert market, although from a promoter standpoint it is still hard for OU to compete with major metro- politan markets. Even Daryl Hall ad- mitted to the crowd after the opening number that he never knew there was an Athens in the United States. The Dynamic duo, with a better than 10 year history on the nation ' s billboards, chose Athens as their 6th kiss on their concert tour list. At 9 P.M., Hall pounced on stage clad in a black jacket, bullseye t-shirt and white gogo boots, and Oates in his skin tight lion patterned spandex pants, started the crowd breakin ' with their top hits Out of Touch and Method of Modern Love. Tracing back their top hit tracks they reminisced the crowd with Private eyes, Kiss on my List, Wait for Me, You ' ve Lost that Lovin ' , as well as Adult Education, and Maneater. Although a post-concert press party planned at Gee Willikers following the concert was not graced by the band, the night, all in all, was a success according ' oxjiexan to reviews and student opinion. As to the future of Athens hosted maneater concerts in the tune of big names, it looks as if the Big Bam Boom made by Hall and Oates may just be the beginning, m 44 — Campus Life CPB ' s president Bryan Thayer, PCC member, and PCC president Adam Caskey stand outside Memorial Audi- torium Box office mak- ing sure ticket sales go smoothiy. Hall and (Dates — 45 Halloween We ' ve created a monster by Laurie Cornet Have you ever had a party and then not show up because you knew that all your guests would have a good time whether you were there or not? It ' s kind of a strange thought, but some- thing to remember when thinking about Halloween in Athens. Many peo- ple think that our party now belongs to everyone but us. As usual this year, Athens ' biggest party attracted a monster crowd. An es- timated 9,000 people jammed in Up- town to socialize and check out the cos- tumes. Court street was taken over by the crowds at 9:15 p.m. and for the next six hours partiers roamed in and out of bars and up and down the street. Although the partiers were calmer this year, it appeared that they were also more creative with their costumes. Perhaps the star attraction was the Brady Bunch, who performed the show ' s opening sequence on the steps of the courthouse. And during the course of the evening, the Richard Nix- on could be seen mingling with the members of ZZ Top and the Marx brothers. There were no Little Bo Peep ' s visible, contrary to the rumor that a maniac dressed as Bo Peep would be stalking the OU campus this year. Ac- Parading costumes could be even more thrilling from the basket of a shopping cart as this HaJJoiveener discovered. cording to many students, these same rumors circulate every year, although admittedly they were a lot more widespread this Halloween. A few stu- dents even profited from the rumor with the sale of their Bo Peep Buster buttons. The huge crowd seemed more controlled than in years past, perhaps because of the unusually warm October weather. There were at least 50 fewer arrests this year compared to last year, however, the majority of those arrested were not OU students. What is it that brings people to Ath- ens for Halloween? We came to see old friends, party and check out the great costumes, said Todd Large, a former OU student who travelled from Dayton. That seems to be the attitude of many of the out-of-towners. It makes no difference that many of them don ' t know anyone in Athens. Despite efforts by OU administration and local offi- cials to down play the festivities, it appears that the number of out-of-town Halloween partiers increases every year — a definite sign that Ohio ' s biggest party will remain in Athens for awhile. m The Halloween festivities brought out the fun in most peo- ple. Here on their zany rampage through the crowd are student imitations of the Marx Brothers.

Whenever you plan something for the weekend, it rains, and besides, it ' s May and the weather is naturally unpredictable. To tell you the truth, it really doesn ' t mat- ter to me because my mom was travel- ing all the way from Connecticut to be with me this weekend. I wasn ' t going to let the weather or anything else inter- fere with our fun; we were going to have a good time on Mom ' s Weekend. The weekend of May 5th saw the arrival of several hundred moms for the annual event of Mom ' s Weekend. Dad was driving mom down from Co- lumbus on a gray Friday afternoon. They arrived around 5:30 and the welcome was long awaited. After a quick intro to my roommate and a few of the girls on the floor, we were off to dinner. Dad footed the bill at a nice restaurant where we talked about everything you just don ' t have time to talk about on ole Ma Bell. Dinner was fun and I enjoyed the time with Dad. We returned to the dorm where we sent Dad on his way back to Columbus to visit with other family members. There we were, two ladies ready for a hot weekend in Athens, Ohio. Friday night brought us to the Forum Theater for the production of Buried Child. It may be hard to believe but after the play we didn ' t go uptown, which from what I understand, was a very busy place. We made it an early evening and hit the hay around mid- night, after a long mother daughter By Gretchen E. Jenkins talk. Saturday morning came and we took our morning meal at Frish ' s, making sure I kept mom as far away from cafe- teria food as possible. The day slid by under a constant gray sky as we roamed from the President ' s reception to a campus tour and a jaunt down Court Street during the International Students Street Fair. Other events go- ing on during the day included a free brunch at Tupper Hall sponsored by the Home Ec. Students Organization, and a fashion show in Voigt Hall as well as a mother daughter newlywed game. Saturday night it was out to dinner with the girls. My roommate and some close friends and myself were treated to Pizza Hut. Mom enjoyed finally meeting all the people she ' s heard me talk about all year. Afterward we checked out the uptown scene. Sunday morning came a little too soon. We rose for church and the end of a good weekend was drawing near. After church we headed up town for a bite to eat. The time went too quickly and Dad was back to pick her up be- fore I was ready for her to go. She was gone for now, but she ' ll come back, they always do.

Mom ' s Weekend — 49 MARTIN LUTHER KING a day for remembering by Valerie A. Linson A though the Reagan Administration did not make Martin Luther King Jr. ' s birthday a legal holiday until 1986, OU students and administrators orga- nized on campus to commemorate the life and work of a man admired and loved by many. Classes were not in session on January 15th as students and faculty gathered in various places around campus to remember Martin Luther King. A rally sponsored by the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity at the College Gate challenged the 150 people in attendance to walk in the humanitarian ways of Dr. King. There was a dance clinic offered as one way for students to see the beauty and power of traditional black art. WOUB-TV and WOUB radio aired several programs about the life of Dr. King, among them, From Montgomery to Memphis which aired on WOUB- TV. Other programs discussed current issues in the black community such as high unemployment and poverty. The feature speaker that day was former Chairman of the U.S. Civil Rights Commission, Arthur Fleming.

Many students used the day to catch up on class work or, unfortunately, sleep late. But whether students attend- ed the day ' s events or not, the signifi- cance of the day off from classes will some day not be forgotten. Not enough can be said about Martin Luther King Jr. ' s contribution to America. He taught love and patience to a country brimming with hate and prejudice. To say that King only helped black people in America is to give him only half the credit he is due because his humanitarianism spread to all peo- Ple- [gi] 50 — Campus Life Martin Luther King Day began with a benediction on the steps of the Class Gateway.

Another was West Green Weekend, May 4 and 5. East Green Weekend was sponsored by East Green Council and WLHD, who organized the event. The party was centered on the thirtieth anniver- sary celebration of the green. Kicking things off, an all gTeen cookout was held Friday night. Then the sounds of Chasing Dinosaurs, Touch and The Bangorillas filled the air. Carnival like vendors sold popcorn to baked potatoes to beer from their stands set up around the green. Sophomore Karen Steinbach said, Nachos and beer. My life felt com- plete for a weekend. A portion of Saturday was delegat- ed to special games with prizes for participants. For the more athleticly inclined, a golf tournament and a 5K run were held in the morning. It as a neat idea to have the golf and run, said Kelli Palumbo. but the only part I participated in was the drinking, laughing and dancing. The last night began with an open green stage for those who wanted to share their talents. The stage was occupied the remainder of the evening by Scav- enger, Rebel Rousers and Voices. For two consecutive years, West Greeners were rained on during their weekend. However, West Green Weekend ' 84 experienced more enthu- siastic moms and students, than rain. The weekend started off with ' airbands ' followed by an all mixer hosted by Sargent Hall. Saturday was sunny and pleasant. Moms and students milled around the green while drinking, eating, listening to music provided by WXTQ, and playing games. Moms and students could buy a sledge hammer hit for 50it. A car was donated by J and B Salvage and slowly demolished by the sledge hammer throughout the day. Saturday afternoon and night ' s en- tertainment was provided by Voices, No Question, Rebel Rousers and The Touch. Skies stayed fairly clear, and music could be heard all over the green while moms and students enjoyed an alternative to uptown for Moms Weekend, according to Dick Frick, Sargent Hall ' s resident director.

Or run? Athens is the city where jaywalking pedestrians rule the streets and crosswalks were made for freshmen. In fact, the last time Athens Police cited a jaywalker was in the early 1970 ' s. Whatever your class rank, your legs are probably your main means of transpor- tation around our fine campus. It was probably one of the early planners of the university that decided to place all three residential greens at least ten minutes walking distance from the college green. In speculating, this action was the only way the adminis- tration could enforce a mandatory ex- ercise program on all students. (No consideration was given to the possible epidemic of fall quarter shin splints: a disease that plagues most out-of-shape hoofers.) You might call it the first phase of the current wellness cam- paign. By Kimbo Nickolai Students also have a say in their ev- eryday walking routine once they reach their junior or senior year at OU. Most decide to move into an off-campus house or apartment. Those with a love of walking, a car, or a lack of distance perception choose to live in places like Carriage Hill Apartments. Others who don ' t want the added hassles of owning a car or don ' t have time for a relaxing walk to class make their homes in the College Inn or an uptown apartment. Even those who live close to their scheduled classes find that getting the necessities in life doesn ' t always involve just a trip around the corner. A walk to the post office, grocery store, li- quor store or even Rax could tie up an entire afternoon. A new hazard that the city threw in on our walking habits was the Washington and Union Street revi- sions. Before fall quarter, a block of each of these uptown streets was one- way. The learned hiker who instinctively looked for oncoming traffic in one direction soon found out that to save his tush, he needed to inspect both options for attacking drivers. Usually after a year on campus, ev- ery Bobcat tries to come up with some creative forms of transportation to relieve his aching paws. One of the more classic attempts at eliminating a few steps from the walk uptown is de- touring Jeff Hill by riding the Music Building elevator. In the winter, the journey down the Hill can be done much quicker by jumping on inner tubes, cardboard, borrowed cafeteria trays and laundry baskets. Through it all, as much as people complain about trudging to class, excursions to Strouds Run for a day of hiking or to the mountain for a climbing lesson still turn out to be two of the more popular things to do when you blow off your spring quarter classes. f57| LOGAN ' S UNIVERSITY BOOK STORE j Walking from Lindley Hall to any other building is a quick trot when you only have 10 minutes.

With a starless twilight sky hanging low over the crowd on Friday night, ideas of fun, food and frolic be- gan to dwindle. But after a slight rain during that evening ' s entertainment, the second day of 1984 ' s final green weekend turned out warm, bright and quite eventful. South Green residents pride them- selves in having the Springfest Warm-Up Party on the lawn be- tween Wray House and Nelson Com- mons. And May 12th, the Saturday of South Green weekend, brought the appropriate weather to tempt students staff and visitors away from any homework or business for hours of sunny relaxation and excitement. South green residents and friends prepared for an afternoon and even- ing of music by local talent. Adding to the atmosphere of the party, food stands attracted partiers who were un- willing to leave the grounds for sup- per. The drizzle sent much of the crowd away later that night, but some held their ground to hear the final band which was Voices, an area fa- vorite. A novel addition to the sidelines this year was the water balloon stand which was second in popularity only to the beer booth. This creation of Wray Complex hall government wasn ' t only a source of pranks and practical jokes, but also provided a refreshing service in the afternoon ' s high temperatures. Selling for a quarter each, who could resist one or two pitches at an understanding pal or a friendly enemy?

As Saturday wound down, some people filtered off to get ready for a night uptown, while others sat back in a different state of mind to observe the proceedings. Still others enjoyed the company of friends and a warm spring night.

Wallick There is an old saying that says something like: Wherever you lay your hat you call home. Well, if we change that a little to, wherever you lay your body you call home, more de- scribes the scene as people corralled onto the Mill Street fields for the party of the year, Springfest ' 84. As com- pared to the 1983 Mudfest, this springfest took on a warmer tone. The Sunfest drew a crowd of about 8,000 bodies which sprawled out on blankets soaking up an array of music styles and decibles along with the 80 degree weather. It wasn ' t easy pulling off the all day concert which had an operating budget of $12,000, not including the contracting budgets for the bands. Janeen Walker, director of fundraising for the May 19th event, began the money-making schemes early winter quarter. The largest funding came from the beach party, a mini star search, buttons and donations made by students in the jars for bars campaign. The all day concert headed off at noon. Food stands surrounded the area as well as beer vans and fest t-shirt stands. Warming the stage was the cross-cul- tural reggae group, Irie, and the acts that followed suited all musical tastes. Three time blues grammy nominee Koko Taylor and her Blues Machine resounded their inspirational blues while new wavers bopped to the tunes sung by the MTV publicized Exotic birds. The stage closed early evening with the funk-and-roll group, Players, former members of the Ohio Players. The band which highlighted the day was the fest ' s first imported act, Eng- land ' s prince of pop, Paul Young and The Royal Family. New on the US scene and another MTV promoted band, they featured their top 40 hits Come Back and Stay and Love of the Common People. In between the main acts the fest had its first ever side stage perfor- mance of local talent to provide continuous musical entertainment. Among the local talent was a Christian vocal group called New Life Quartet and a popular break-dancing group better known as The Ice-breakers. After the last band performed, the crowd that drank 133 kegs of beer left as the numb fields were cleared. Another successful Springfest party ended. But you can be sure that every year the Springfest fever struck party goers will keep showing up on the Mill Street fields for their annual fest-fix, come mud or shine.

A typical Saturday on a typical college campus. Almost. Actually, OU isn ' t a typical college campus and it wasn ' t a typical Satur- day. The special event that took place on that Saturday in early May is one of the reasons why. It was May 5th. The event . . . the International Street Fair. The festivi- ties included food, dancing and just plain old fun. The fair gives American students a chance to see and get a taste of the countries that our fellow students come from. Also, the international stu- dents get a chance to experience each other ' s heritages. This was the third year for the fair. International Services started the event along with the uptown mer- chants. The international students also worked very hard to make the fair a success. The fair is a community event. Patty Patton, International Student Advisor, said, It gives all residents of Ohio University and southeastern Ohio a chance to explore the diversity of international students. Court Street was closed to through traffic for the event. The fair is a showcase of different cultures repre- sented here at O.U. Palestinians, Ni- gerians, Malaysians and Latin Ameri- can cultures were part of the twenty five groups that participated, including a group from the United States. There was a wide array of different foods, arts, and clothing displayed. The performing arts for the day in- cluded: song and dance from Malay- sia, a street band from the Caribbean, modern dance and interpretation from the United States, a Lion dance from China, music from South America, and an international costume parade. The International Street Fair was held in conjunction with international week. International week started April 30th and the grand finale was the street fair.

The monotonous routine is broken by a chromatic inter- val that leaves its inhabitants spellbound. Students entering OU ' s campus fall quarter, whether it be for the first or last time, are likely to witness a transition from humid, watercolored afternoons to frozen, pearl like morn- ings that melt into the fun filled months of spring. Students are tempted to take over The Wall in front of the Frontier Room, to drink beer, meet people, or simply have an intelligent conversation. They meet on the benches in front of Bentlv and Chubb and on the walks in front of Morton. Alden library becomes a significant spot for studying, especially at the mid- dle and end of a quarter. The center of campus. College Green, isn ' t only the easiest way to get where you ' re going but a chance to en- joy a beautiful day. Walking to class is stirring, the patch- work atmosphere brings out the comfort of the surroundings. Winter brings out some fun times, even if it does mean landing on top of someone at the bottom of [eff Hill after a tray ride. Yes, Jeff Hill is probably the most talked about place on campus. It may get us uptown to drink a few beers or to the library to study for ex- ams, but it almost always leaves us ex- hausted and out of breath.

Some of the events that took place this past summer were Pre-college for incoming freshmen and a jigsaw puz- zle contest. Precollege is a day and one-half of college academic orientation help in July and August, the main purpose of precollege is to enable incoming freshmen and their parents to meet with other students, faculty, and staff advisors to prepare a fall academic schedule. Precollege also gives stu- dents the opportunity to be tested for placement or wave certain freshmen classes. While the freshmen are being tested and making their schedules, there is a joint program available for parents to attend. In this program the parents meet deans of different colleges and the president or vice-president of the University. There are also seminars on financial aid and different groups from the college and town come and talk. These groups include banks, churches and some of the school or-l ganizations. To end Precollege the Summer Theater presents a play for the stu-j dents and their parents. This year the dinner theater play was called The Robber Bridegroom. Besides Precollege, the National Jig- saw Puzzle Championship is held each summer in Athens. Both the i Dairy Barn and the Athens Chamber of Commerce sponsor the event and Hallmark is the corporate sponsor. There are two separate contests, singles and doubles. The doubles contest was won by two sisters, Lisa 64 — Campus Life ieiser and Lori Reezes. Lisa is a tudent at The Ohio State University ind Lori is a teacher, and both are rom Columbus. The singles competi- ion was won by JoEllen Beifuss from )uke University. Besides entries from Ohio and sur- ounding states there was an unusual ntry this year . . . Sadie Lilly, a re- ired public typist from New Zealand, ihe came to Athens specifically for he jigsaw contest. A few other events that took place iver the summer were: yearbook and Durnalism seminars for high school nd college students; a day at the cir- us with the Roberts Bros.

J984L Year of triumph and tragedy. by Lisa Dreyer Although George Orwell was wrong about Big Brother, 1984 was full of fantastic strides and dismal failures destined to shape the future. Wheaties sweetie Mary Lou Retton, who was overall gymnastics champ, and four-gold medal winner Carl Lewis were the United States ' outstanding summer Olympic stars. But the U.S. really triumphed when Romania, the only Soviet bloc Olympic participants, marched into the coliseum during the opening and got a standing ovation. Another summer hit was grown-up Michael Jackson, who became the year ' s Thriller with his hit singles, videos and Victory tour with his broth- ers. In October, Gary Trudeau ended his sabbatical and re-introduced his Doonesbury cast to college crowds and editorial pages. The annual Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to Bishop Desmond Tutu of South Africa for his struggle against apartheid. The presidential election produced several surprises for the American electorate. Baptist minister (esse Jackson became the first black to run for president and Geraldine Ferraro became the first woman to run for vice- president. But Ronald Reagan buried the Democrats in one of the biggest presidential landslides ever. For the second time in two years, a Vietnam memorial was erected in Washington, D.C. A bronze statue of three soldiers looking for their lost companion stands near the first memo- rial designed by former Athens resi- dent Mia Lin.

Two new buildings are under con- struction to upgrade their respective departments. One is the E.W. Scripps School of Journalism. The other is the Stocker engineering building. The School of Journalism will have the new Scripps Hall because of a grant from E.W. Scripps and the state and the engineering students attributed their new facility to the late C. Paul Stocker and donations from friends, alumni and industries. Computers are now the standard me- dium and the university ' s acquiring a lot of the space age equipment in de- partments all around campus. Senior Brad Neavin said, The School of Music has been using com- puters for a while but it just got several new computers that will further improve the quality of education. Mary Wharton, a senior in the Col- lege of Education, said, The education department is now requiring its majors to take a computer class. I think it ' s great, but I wish they would ' ve started sooner. OU has received millions of dollars for research work. And OU has re- ceived national recognition for its work with genetic research. OU academics are striving to be the best they can be. Oh Yeah! cr O CD Q ft 55 CD 1 Academics — 69 Three Quarter ' s Time The pros and cons of quarters all in the eyes of the beholder BY KIM WALKER What would you do if, all of a sud- den, the administration at Ohio University declared a change from the quarter system to semesters? Would you mind giving up your six week break in exchange for two? How would you feel about having 16 weeks instead of ten to form a positive understanding of a class and a professor? The quarter system, as well as the semester system, has advantages and disadvantages. Ohio University changed from a quarterly academic year in the fall of 1966. The switch was part of a state wide program instituted by the Ohio Board of Regents. A common calen- dar for all state universities was a dominant factor leading to the switch. However, the switch was based pri- marily on political, administrative and financial considerations. Then OU President, Vernon R. Al- den, believed the switch would make Ohio University a livelier and more ex- citing place, since the faculty would take a fresh look at the courses in evaluating them for the quarter system. He felt quarters would break up the year into more even packages and stu- dents could choose which quarter they wanted for vacation or go to school year round and graduate in three years. The Board of Regents believed a newly added quarter system and a common calendar would encourage (Continued on p. 73) Tim Geoghegan Everybody needs a break away from the quarterly grind.

The faculty wasn ' t ready for such a drastic turn around and protested in October of 1966. However, within a year ' s time, the student body at OU had appraised a quarter system which was to greatly affect their college careers. The number of classes was reduced by V and active parti cipation increased by 2 3. With less time to get things done and even lesser time to procrastinate, students confronted the switch and kept the calendar rolling. Advantages to our quarter system are clear to see. We get out for break in mid-November which gives us first pick in the Christmas job rush. United Parcel Service visits OU weeks ahead of time, searching out students to help during the busiest season of the year. Although classes aren ' t over until mid- June, students once again have the op- portunity to get part time jobs in recreational atmospheres, because the two biggest holidays of the summer don ' t occur until July 4th and Labor Day weekend. We are practically the only students left to work through La- bor Day. On the other hand, many de- partment stores won ' t hire in the mid- dle of June. So the situation can either ' Three Quarter ' s Time — Playing in 3 A time the Marching 110 takes summer band camp practice in stride.

A lot of people argue that ten weeks isn ' t enough time to get to know a pro- fessor and or the subject matter of the class. But, some students grow bored with classes and professors. The three quarter system helps in keeping inter- est levels high. Dean of Students )oel Rudy said that if we were to ask a student how he or she felt about quarters or semesters, he or she might say, I like it just the way it is. Rudy said this may be due to the fact that most students have never ex- perienced anything different. I have a real bias toward semesters, but if the change is to take place, it will come from the faculty and students, said Rudy. Nevertheless, according to recent polls the student body prefers the quarter system. It looks like the future of the quarter system at OU is Vim GcoshCRan Occupation Resource files are available year round in Career Planning and Placemenl.

Three Quarter ' s Time — 75 Arts and Sciences A strong foundation makes education programs flow GEMMA EISWERTH The College of Arts and Sciences is the oldest and largest college on campus. The college ' s 20 depart- ments include majors from Afro- American studies and botony to lin- guistics to zoology. Ohio University was founded as a liberal arts college and remained that way for the first 100 years. But with modern technology and an increasing- ly specialized society, the curricula has had to expand and new colleges have been established to meet the demands of the society. Dr. George Klare, dean of the Col- lege of Arts and Sciences, said, the main objective of the College of Arts and Sciences is teaching, research and services in the humanities, natural sci- ences and social sciences. The College of Arts and Sciences is of vital importance to the central purpose of OU. The university was founded to provide students the op- portunity to secure a sound liberal education. A liberal education stresses the importance of progress and open- mindedness. Therefore, the curricula of the college consists of courses that have traditionally been regarded as providing people with an understanding of themselves and their world. A student striving for a major in the College of Arts and Sciences is re- quired by the individual department to take classes in the specific major only. The other liberal arts classes are taken under the university ' s general education requirements. Most depart- ments allow for up to a year of elec- tive study. The college offers 27 regular ma- jors, 16 minors and six majors ar- ranged in cooperation with other col- leges. The most significant change within the college this year was the replacing of the dean. Dr. William Dorrill stepped down from the position after seven years as head of the college. Dorrill left to take a position as provost of the University of Louisville. Dr. George Klare took over as acting (Continues on P 78) 76 — Academics FOCUS ' Sophomore Bill Brand works on his French in Ellis Hull Janguage lab.

Over half the classes taught here on campus are within the arts and sciences college. To teach those classes, the college employs half the faculty of the univer- sity. While the college claims half of the faculty, only 2,500 students, or 17%, are enrolled in a major within the college. That ' s including students from all campuses. But the amount of faculty is justi- fied, because it does serve curricula requirements in other colleges. Journalism, for instance, has the most majors enrolled, but almost 75% of the required courses must be taken outside the realm of journalism. Most of the classes are therefore taken in the College of Arts and Sciences. It may not be the dominant college on campus anymore, but it will al- ways be an integral part of the basic educational purpose of OU. f5F| 78 — Academics Arts and Sciences — 79 Business People Making professionals JEANINE WARD Returning to her col- lege, 84 aiumnus Lee Ann Urban speaks with Herschel R.

The col- lege also holds a full accredition for both its undergraduate and graduate courses from the American Assembly of Collegiate Schools of Business. The main purpose of the college is to prepare students for professional careers in business, non-profit organ- izations, and government. In helping to prepare the students for a career, the college brings representatives from the business world into the classroom. The business people, during their stay, provide the students and faculty with their views of issues that are affecting or going to affect the business world. The college is divided into four dif- ferent departments: Accounting, Finance, Marketing, and Management systems. They offer thirteen different undergraduate majors, some of which are accounting, business prelaw, finance, computer systems in business, marketing, and international business. The faculty of the College of Busi- ness Administration is comprised of fifty highly qualified professors. Many of them have done previous work in the fields of business, foil 80 FOCUS ' Gary Canlan converses with Dean John Slinson of the College of Business Administration.

Fall quarter 1984 marked the opening of the College of Business Administration ' s second computer instructional laboratory. Because the new equipment was installed this past summer, the instructors and students had to work together to learn how to use the new computers and software. Under a matching grant agreement with Digital Equipment Corporation, the College received more than $600,000 in computers and supporting systems— a VAXll 780 small mainframe computer, 40 Rainbow microcomputers and DCE software, including the ALL-IN-1 automated office information center. Digital provided an outright gift of $300,000 and the College is in the process of raising $300,000 over the next two years to complete the payment of the equipment. In addition to this, Cincom systems have given the College its relational database sys- tem, ULTRA, that is valued at $140,000. It ' is designed for use on Digital ' s VAX 11 780 and is being used to teach two new data base courses in the Computer Systems in Business major. Dr. James Perotti, Computer Systems in Business, wrote the grant requests for both Digital and Cincom, and now as a result, Dean Stinson has made the following obser- vation of the new system.

He feels that the College of Commu- nication stands a step ahead of other colleges in the area and in surround- ing states. We ' re in a class by our- selves simply because of our number of sequences each of which has its own individual strengths. Other reasons are our heavily accredited journalism sequences, our increasing size, and the fact that we offer hands on practical experience to every student. Some students attend college to sim- ply learn what ' s in a text. At OU we offer experience. Our students don ' t just learn what ' s in a book, but how to crop a picture, layout a page for a newspaper or magazine or how to handle the pressure that arises from working in the field of broadcasting. We pride ourselves in knowing that our students know how to do some- thing when they graduate, said Nel- Working with a rare Ph.d. program which offers opportunities for exten- sive research the college is attempting to internationalize the program and become more sensitive to the needs of developing countries. Also, some of our professors visit other countries and aid them in their learning of communications. Teaching new courses in the school of telecommunications by way of a new high-tech method, the micro- wave were David Mold, Bryon Scott and Charles Clift. This was done by using video technology and micro- waves which transmitted from both Lancaster and Columbus. The specific title is Teleconference. Which means a professor in Lancaster can see, talk, and hear from someone in Columbus instantly. This is only one way in which the school is growing rapidly. A new edition to the college is the idea of utilizing a Board of Vistors, which consists of outstanding gradu- ates among them the President of NBC. These people aid the college by informing them how to keep the pro- grams strong and updated.

He painted on the stone arch at Seigfred, the outdoor auditorium for those who need time alone or an opportunity to express their ideas creatively. Before Eldridge covered the wall with white paint and black lettering, a colorful mosaic had been painted there. The six columns of literary art now explicate the literal version of what had once been the mural. It is a less reasonable facsimile of what ' s underneath, said Eldridge. Nevertheless, it now covers the unfinished mural he hoped to complete in the spring of ' 85. With clauses like, Beyond the world of gravity and A class of men whose whole delight is destroying, one might draw his or her own conclusions about such a work of art. Even so, it is a picture formed into words, a story arranged by thought and an idea for ev- eryone to ponder. In finishing his work of art, Eldridge left a small painted animal claw in the right hand corner. This was left over from the first mural, as some sort of link to the past.

The college is the only osteopathic medical school in Ohio, and one of 15 nation wide. Three former dorms were remod- eled, and now comprise the core teaching and clinical facilities for the college. They include Grosvenor, Irvine and Parks Halls. The college has an approximate enrollment of 400. Admission to the college is very selective; only one out of 13 who apply are accepted. While in osteopathic medical school, students go through four phases of study, each of which lasts about one year. Although the first two phases emphasize classroom study and last two phases emphasize work in a clini- cal setting, doctor-patient interaction is stressed from day one. In addition to teaching, medical re- search is also performed within the college. In the summer of 1984, Tom Wag- ner, a scientist studying how genetics relates to superior characteristics in farm animals, received a $3 million matching grant from the state to further his genetic research. The osteopathic college provides many services to the surrounding community. The Osteopathic Medical Center is one of the services. The center provides health care services to the entire Athens area. The medical center staff consisted of 20 physicians who are also faculty members of the college. In addition, the college was cosponsoring a series of monthly town meetings to further educate the public on current health issues. The meetings consisted of both lec- tures and discussions given by osteo- pathic faculty members. 96 — Academics Medicine is only one of Osteopathic Medical College aspect Dr. Murray Goldstein speaks to a near capacity audience in Irvine hall about aizheimers disease.

The college acquires the cadavers through the Willed Body Program under the direction of Gene Thurston. Thurston said that in his program, a donor signs a legal form stating that upon his death, he will donate his body to Ohio University ' s college of Osteopathic Medicine for medical research and education. When the donor dies, the body is shipped to Ohio University. Here the body is em- balmed in a special way to preserve it for a period of time for use in anatomical study. The cadavers, kept in a large cooler located in Grosvenor Hall, are used by med students for approximately two quarters. Following the medical research, the cadaver is cremated, and the ashes are disposed of as specified by the donor. An average of 25 cadavers are needed each year. However, because the College of Osteo- pathic Medicine is so new, it often falls short of its cadaver quota. When this occurs, the college must purchase the cadavers from oth- er university ' s. pjF] Cadavers used in study upon death he will donate his body to Ohio University . . .

As some of you may have observed, some of their teaching techniques can, at times, be quite bizarre. Though if you ask one of these profs why they are so strange, they will probably deny being unusual in the first place. They look at their job as getting a point across to their class, whether it be by convention- al means or not. As one professor put it, When you begin to notice your class reading the Post , or starting to doze off, that ' s when you realize you ' re not getting through to them. ' ' Reading quotations is often employed to break up the monotony of a lecture, as are slides and other visual stimuli. More extreme methods can also be used. When one prof began class by lay- ing on the lecture table, he explained it as, trying to show them how people expect certain roles to behave. They expect the prof to come in and lecture the class, not go to sleep on the lecture ta- ble. So the next time your professor stands on a ta- ble or shouts at the blackboard, just remember that they are only trying to make an important point clear. Richard Vedder.

The two smallest colleges are International Studies with 124 and undecided gradu- ates with 48. Our graduate programs excel in many areas, according to Mrs. Sands of the graduate department. She also added, Ohio University ' s Sports Administration program is very unique, it is actually the only one like it in the entire United States. Therefore, it is filled with the best students from all over the world and is very competi- tive. Besides Sports Administration, Mrs. Sands also says that psychology, com- munication, theater, biology, are also very well-known and quite competi- tive. The graduate department offers 64 different sections of study; 45 masters degrees and 19 Ph.D. programs. The department also offers 3 differ- ent types of graduate admissions; de- gree, nondegree, and transient. A degree admission is a student that is working towards a degree, while a nondegree student is one that is taking graduate courses but is not working to- ward a degree. The final type of admis- sion is a category called transient. This means that the student is working for credits at OU but getting a degree at another college.

Graduate Research — 103 University Publications Gifted Students Honors Tutorial; the added advantage LAURIE CORNETT Ohio University has one program that is like no other one in the United States — the Honors Tutorial College. OU can be proud of the fact that we have the only degree-granting honors program in the nation. Many institu- tions have honors programs, but ours is the only one in which a student can receive a degree. There are currently about 150 stu- dents enrolled in the honors program here, and they have their choice of 23 majors, including Journalism, Market- ing, Economics, Physics and Theater. The student is able to take advantage of the honors program, but is able to major in whatever he she chooses. The Honors Tutorial College was created to meet the interests of cre- ative, high-ability students, and is modeled after the honors programs used at the British universities, most notably Oxford and Cambridge. There are several goals of this program, in addition providing a chance for the gifted student to be in- volved in a one-on-one learning rela- tionship rather than a lecture-type atmosphere. The student and tutor have weekly conferences where they can discuss previous assignments and prepare for upcoming ones. One important aspect of this is the I ability of the tutor to prepare al curriculum which incorporates depart- mental requirements, yet also appeals to the students ' interests. Each tutor is a ! full-time faculty member at O.U., and each one has a thoroughly professional background in his her area of special- ization. Obviously a program of this sort must have very selective admission require- ments, because the college can only ac-! cept so many majors per year. Most 1 04 Academics ■■— r FOCUS Did you ever notice the University Professor nomination blank at the top of your registra- tion form? Did you ever use it? One of six students here fill it out every year. Those students are indirectly taking part in an unusual program that gives them a voice in their educations. The University Professor program began in the spring of 1970. It was spearheaded by Edgar Whan, professor of English. I think it was a reflection of the times, said Mark Graham, advisor of one of the University Professor Student Committee. The students were taking an active role in their edu cation. They want- ed to reward their professors for good work. Students get to take the experimental courses that would not normally be offered. The faculty profits by getting release time to develop their own courses and they get a financial reward of $1,000 that goes toward research and professional devel- opment. Four hundred professors are nominated each year, said Graham. About one-half of the faculty. The votes are counted. Then the professors are rated by the number of votes and the percentage of votes they received as opposed to the number of students they taught the past year. The two lists are integrated, then the top 15 begin to go through the process of becoming a University Professor. In order to make their decision, committee members interview the nominated professors and attend the professors ' classes. The instructors are evaluated on how they interact with the students. Students choose special professors by Ellen Two professors from the School of Curriculum and Instruction were chosen this year. Dwight Rog- ers, an elementary education professor taught a course on Fathering. Assistant Professor of Sec- ondary Education George Wood instructed a course on Growing Up in America. Madeleine Scott, assistant professor of dance, introduced her course of Relaxation Techniques and Theory. Thomas Peters from the school of journalism taught his Advanced Advertising Seminar. Chemistry Professor Clifford Houk designed two courses this year, Smoke, Fire, Myth and Magic and Toxic Substances Toxicology. Also, William Kaufman presented the math department with Mental Games.

The international students enhance the university, ex- plains Mr. Felix Gagliano, associate provost for International Programs and director of the Center for International Studies. Ten percent of the student enrollment is made up of international students representing 90 countries. This is the highest ratio of all state assisted universities in Ohio. In fact, it would be difficult for an American student to spend four years in Athens and not have any contact with international stu- dents. Many don ' t realize the role international students play. Although it may be an unconscious influence, the day to day interaction between students creates a cultural awareness to other ways of life, besides the American Way. The students ' backgrounds, ages, personalities and customs, vary. Ohio University provides them with the op- portunity to learn from both the formal structures of curriculum and the infor- mal contact with people. In return, they provide the American students with an understanding of the world ' s vast scope of different people, customs, religions, values, issues and problems. The department of International Studies was established in 1964. Degree programs at the graduate level were developed first, followed by undergraduate programs and then cer- tificate programs in international studies in the College of Arts and Sci- ences. They are a cooperative involve- ment of our faculty in many depart- ments. In 1968 the Ohio Program of Inten- sive English was established. O.P.I.E. was the first of its kind in Ohio. It teaches English as a second language and facilitates the communication needs of international students, helping them to further their English-training skills. The Center for International Studies was designed in 1964 and concerns the expansion of an international commitment of Ohio University. The center coordinates teaching, research and publication activities. Their major focus is on Africa, Latin America and South East Asia. They also work with the development of courses and provide library materials. The center supports visiting lecturers, films and seminars. The International Students Associ- ation and other affiliated groups, such as the Malaysian Students Association, the Nigerian Students Association, and the Muslim Students Association sponsor a continuous series of lectures and cultural presentations for the en- tire community. The International Week, held in the winter, aims at the international aspects of the University. Thus international students add an important sphere to the life in Athens and to the various cultural dimensions of our University.

For those who have long since sat in a classroom, have a steady job, but would still like to earn a degree, Expe- riential Learning allows those individ- uals to put together a documentation learned on the job through work experience that equates to what is taught in the course, said Joseph Tucker, associate vice-provost. This program allows adults to obtain a degree quicker, without repeating material they may have already learned on the job. I am elated at earning 47 credits through Portfolio Development using my 30 years of professional experience, said experiential student, Evajean F. McKnight. Continuing Education, offers classes to individuals not enrolled in a university degree program. Another avenue of continuing Ed. is Communiversity, which provides class- es to those simply interested in learn- ing. Classes range from dance, to real estate. The final office of Lifelong Learning is Independent Study in which 5,000 students took part. Three methods of study were Independent Study Courses by Correspondence, Independent 108 Study Projects and Course Credit by Examination. Students enrolled in Course by Cor- respondence participate in a one-on- one tutorial relationship with a profes- sor. Students enroll in Independent Study Projects because they want to study a course that was not currently taught at the university. For people who already have exten- sive knowledge in a field, but want credit, Course Credit by Examination may be the easiest way of obtaining that credit. Lifelong Learning is an important part of the university and community. It enables adults to further their educa- tion in a convenient way.

At Ohio University-Zanesville, traditional students are being surprised by a very non-tradi- tional student — Mary Covert, who is 80-years old. She is the oldest student at the Zanesville campus, and is a journalism major. At first she was taking correspondence classes, but then enrolled in regular classes of English, journalism, philosophy, sociology and history. Mrs. Covert ' s GPA is close to a 4.0. She says she does not really get too worked up over her grades; the most important thing is that she learns the material. She chose journalism because she has always been interested in writing, and even wrote stories and poems at 12 yrs. She would eventually like to write children ' s literature.

Library Extends Services Alice continues to aid student research LAURA SUTKUS With its collection of over 1 million books. 1 million pieces of microforms and 400,000 pieces of visual and auditory equipment, Alden Library is not only the quietest place on campus to study, but is also the ul- timate place to discover information on virtually any topic. ALICE, an on line card catalog and circulation system, first introduced in July of 1983, has made finding a book in the library a simple task. A library patron can use ALICE to check on the location and availability of any book. Books can be checked out by passing a light pen across the terminal screen. ALICE is connected with the uni- versity ' s mainframe computer and can be accessed from any university com- puter terminal on campus. Bill Betcher, Director of Associate Services for the library, said only a few universitys possess a computer- ized card catalog system like ALICE. However, he said the demand for these systems is growing. We ' ve had many representatives from colleges i n Ohio as well as out of state come to OU to survey ALICE and learn how it works, said Betcher. Knowing that OU is advanced in its computerized catalog system makes us very proud. In July, the library received two grants from the university ' s 1804 En- dowment Fund which will be used to expand ALICE ' S functions. These two grants totaled approximately $90,000. Betcher said the first grant will be used to add a magazine index onto ALICE. The second grant will be used to connect Ohio University ' s regional campus libraries with ALICE. Then, students attending regional campuses will have access to all the books on the main campus. 1 1 — Academics The seven fJoors of Alden Library have use oj a sturdy spiral concrete stairwell. The library also has two other computerized information units to help locate information on any topic. In the computerized information re- trieval service (CIRS) students and faculty can have a tailored bibliogra- phy made for the topic they are re- searching, no matter how specific the topic is. Through the Online Interlibrary Loan System (OILS), books can be borrowed from over 3,000 institutions throughout the United States. Betcher said this year, the library will strive to develop a library orien- tation and introduction program to guide new students on how to use the library. BJ] FOCUS ' the large amount of traffic on the fourth floor by Laura ButiuH Jf you walk on the west side of the fourth floor in Alden this year, underneath you will be brand new carpeting. According to Bill Betcher, Director of Asso- ciate Services for the library, Because of the large amount of traffic on the fourth floor, the carpeting needed to be replaced badly, said Betcher. We ' ve been trying to get funds for a couple of years now. The installed carpeting replaced carpeting that was 15 years old, as old as the library building itself. The recarpeting began in late August and was completed within the first week of the fall quarter. The approximate cost of the recarpeting project was $23,755.00. The money for the recarpeting was allocat- ed to us from capital improvement funds, explained Betcher. [%] New carpet gets tread.

Obvious ecamples were the theater perfor- mances at Kantner and the Patio Theater, the Performing Arts Series at Memorial Auditorium, and the dance and musical per- formances by their respective schools. The arts also included the literature, lec- tures, and illustrative works that were read, heard and seen all over campus. Sources for enjoying the literary arts were the Post , Sphere Magazine, Athens Magazine, and Outlook for the lectures — the Student Lecture Series, and for the illustrative works — Trisolini Gallery, Small Space Gallery, and Seigfried Gallery. All the arts reflected the time that we were living in and the attitudes of people.

Syi he Ohio University Theater Depart- ment presented two high quality performances during the fall quarter of 1984. The Boys From Syracuse based on Shakespeare ' s Comedy of Errors with music by Richard Rodgers. lyrics by Lorenz Hart and book by George Abbott, got the year off to a good musical start. The only musical performance of the quarter highlighted the vocal talents of many OU theater majors.

Even Antipholus of Ephesus ' own wife Adriana, played by Janetta Davis, can ' t tell them apart. This updated adaptation of a true classic brought laughter to three energet- ic audiences. The Bus Stop by William Motter was the last theatrical performance of 1984 for the College of Fine Arts. This enter- taining drama was well done by the members of the cast. The entire play takes place within a few short hours on a cold, snowy night. The characters are all inside a small cor- ner restaurant waiting for the roads to clear so they can continue the bus ride to Kansas City. But within those few short hours, the little lessons of love and of life, change each character a little bit. as well as the audience. The light humorous master piece brought smiles to the audience members.

A meilowphone player is fust one of the band members creating another famous marching 110 sound. Many of us have gone to the football games, seen the Marching 110, and been delighted with their sounds of music. But the marching band and it ' s musicians were only one small aspect of the exciting School of Music at OU. According to Dr. James Stewart, Director of the school, We are probably one of the best kept secrets on campus. Excellent faculty and students worked hard and performed musical background for many musical productions. Some of the out- standing performances included the operas The Crucible by Robert Ward, and The Gondoliers by Gilbert and Sullivan. In addition to operas there were many solo faculty performances, orchestral chamber music shows, and of course the jazz band who entertained us with their ses- sions out on the College Green. Along with these activities there were also lab critique reviews of students who partici- pated in studio lessons in voice, piano, wind and string instruments and percussion. The School of Music also sponsored the Scholarship Series which brought to the uni- versity visiting artists from around tne world. Such performers have included Stephen C Q u s 5 122— Arts si.

Taming of the Shrew, the first of the quarter was an excellent rendition of this masterpiece. This fast-paced, hilarious dra- ma was well received by the audience. The student cast members brought off ex- cellent performances portraying the characters of this familiar classic. But there was an added twist. A couple extra scenes were added to make it a play within a play. Shawn Watson, assistant professor of Re- naissance literature, served as dramaturg for the production. The powerful performance by Sly Petruchio, Jeffrey Glover, kept the intensity level of the play high. Also, the zanny antics of Marion Grumio, ]ane Browning, kept the audience laughing. The second Shakespeare performance of the quarter was King Lear. This Shake- speare romantic tragedy chronicles the dev- astating effects of ingratitude within two families. The story of Lear is an absorbing one and very emotional. The strong performance of King Lear was turned in by Dr. Alvin Kaufman. For Dr. Kaufman, a professor in the School of Theater, this was his last performance be- fore retirement in the 1985-86 school year. The School of Theater involved the local schools with this project to make it a truely educational process on both sides. The area school children studied the script and history of King Lear before sitting in the audience and watching the OU performance of this classic drama. The School of Theater should be applaud- ed for its community involvement through talent, as well as producing two excellent Shakespeare shows.

I sat in the Shively Resturant and Fly Farm Monday morning, wishing they had Froot Loops and feeling the tea eat away the mucous lining of my stomach, peacefully enjoying my Post. I began to read Marty ' s thoughts on Bobcat Hockey, reliving the rush of adrenalin I ' d felt in Bird Arena as I. too, screamed for the end of a Buckeye ' s hope for fatherhood. Personally. I enjoyed the violence; I ' ve yet to meet a Buckeye who doesn ' t think that because the name of his school is THE Ohio State University, our fair institution of higher education is a waste of land. I suppose he ' d rather use it for an agricultural experiment, like how to grow more steroids so that may- be OSU could beat USC in the Rose Bowl one of these years. But I ignored Marty ' s attempts at pop psychology. After all. he may be a know-it-all. but occasionally he ' s a clever know-it-all, and I liked his fresh viewpoint Suddenly, there it was. A glaring mistake. Something so terribly wronge. so offensive, that I spit out my mouthful of acidic tea on my favorite sweater and was compelled to write. Marty.

It ' s been an excellent season for the OU Basketball team. The champs in the MAC and contenders for the NCAA tournament. Coach Danny Nee said this year ' s team is especially unique because, it ' s a team of no stars. It ' s just a lot of peo- ple playing together to win. The women ' s track team did equally as well this year. Winning the 1984 Mid-American Conference Champion- ships, they ' re the first team to hold the title for two consecutive years. The men ' s track team was not quite as fortunate. With a lot of young, inexperienced members and several injuries, they rounded out the season in eighth place. Coach Elmore Banton feels next year ' s team will be stronger, because they ' ll have the experience. But there ' s a lot more to OU sports than just at the varsity level. The club sports have good, strong teams. OU should be proud to have such hard working, dedicated athletes that repre- sent OU, but don ' t always get the rec- ognition they deserve. The club sports range from boxing and hockey, to ulti- mate frisbee and waterskiing. And, if you ' re the type that would rather play sports, than just watching, the intramural department probabl y has something you ' d like. OU has a wide array of offerings from broomball to swimming. Then there ' s always the sideline ac- tion at the sporting events. Of course, there ' s the official representative of Ohio University, the beloved Bobcat. And the one group that can always get the crowd going, the Marching 110. The most exciting band in the land!

There is a lot more to a basketball or football game than just the players on the court or in the field. A lot happens on the sidelines. All the different people on the sidelines are there to give support to the players. Even though they may not always be in the spotlight, they are just as important to what ' s going on. The people I ' m talking about are the cheerleaders, the band, trainers, coaches, ball boys, the Crazy Cats and, yes, even the fans.

Bobkitten and Crazy Cats keep the spirit of the fans up to cheer on the teams. Also giving support to the teams, but in a different way, are the trainers, assistant coaches and coaches.

Winning did not turn out to be the main objective until late in the season by Brian Schwieterman The 1984 men ' s lacrosse season started off with some changes. Off the field, new president, Chip Weber, was named. He was able to schedule OU to a ten-game season. Then it was up to the veterans to mold the team into a game-winning form. It seems that having fun overruled hard and grueling practices and OU dropped the first two games to Marietta and Miami by very wide margins. After some changes in the practice format, the team lost another game to Marietta College. This time though, OU closed the margin of defeat to within one goal. The next weekend, the team faced two road games with Wittenberg University and the University of Dayton. Once again, the team fell into the old pattern of losing but this time it was due to the fact that some of the club members could not make the road trip rather than a lack of skill. The Bobcats finished the season off right by capturing their first win over Earlham College. After that game, they avenged an earlier season loss to Miami by beating them in front of their home fans by a score of 8 to 5. The team had four games in their fall quarter season. They went .500 winning two and losing two. There are 14 games scheduled for the spring quarter season. The team is sponsored by Coors and Kerr ' s Distributing.

The few previous years the conference had been divided into east west. The Bobcats went into the 1984 season as one of the favorites; the MAC was ranked as the second toughest conference in the nation by pro-scouts — giving them pretty prestigious ranking. But the team had problems getting a set starting lineup, therefore they just didn ' t have the right chemistry to win the MAC. But. they finished a respectable third, behind Central Michigan and Miami. Two of the bright spots in the Bobcats ' lineup were Wes Harrington with a .380 average and Keith Vrotsos with a .341 average. Also, consistent performances were turned in by the pitching staff. Although the team didn ' t finish too badly in the division of nine teams, second baseman Mike Jaworski said, It was a disappointment because I thought we had the talent to win the conference. But for baseball fans the Bobcats had a strong finish. The last weekend of the season, they took 3 of 4 games from Eastern Michigan. Although depleted by graduation, the Bobcats are still optimistic about next season. Third baseman Mark Adams said, If we have productive years from the veteran players, we ' ll contend for the title.

Collectively, the Bobcats led the MAC in hitting (.251) and broke school records of hits (251), singles (212), doubles (32) and stolen bases (28) in a season. According to coach Stadeck, the victory over defending MAC champion and nationally ranked Central Michigan was the Bobcat ' s finest hour.

According to Coach Elmore Banton, the ' Cats, by placing eighth in the Mid-American conference, did better than anticipated with the injuries sustained by the team. Injury to key players almost always means automatic point loss for OU because of its lack of depth. The many injuries that occurred in the latter part of the season, along with the abundance of new talent committed the squad to a building year. I am looking forward to next year when OU track will have the experience it needs to become one of the top teams in the MAC, Banton stated. The 1984-85 squad should prove to be a tough competitor with all but field specialist Dale Gehman rejoining the ranks. Returning players expected to contribute to the team ' s success include sprinter Stuart Hinds, field specialist Reggie Scott and middle distance runners Rodney Neal and joe Shepard.

Success is not new to the team, with this win comes the distinction of being the first MAC team to acquire two consecutive titles. Many factors contribute to the success of a team of this caliber. The 1983 and 1984 MAC Coach of the Year Diane Stamm sites mental toughness gained from experience as a major factor. Once you ' ve won you know what it takes. This certainly holds true for senior Kathy Williams, who received All-MAC honors in the 800 meter event and went on to compete in the National Qualifiers in Oregon. Also qualifying were junior Cathy Taylor in shotput and discus; and sophomore Selina Christian in the 400 meter hurdles. These three All-MAC champions have proved to be valuable assets in the past two years. The loss of seven seniors will be most evident in the sprinting events. The field and middle distance events should provide depth for the 1985 season with the return of Taylor. The desire to win and support for one another are evident in this team placing a third conference title within reach of Stamm and the women ' s track team.

Under the direction of president Delia Pearson, the women ' s Ultimate Frisbee Club, better known as the Windjammers, completed their 1984 spring season at the central Region tournament at Southern Illinois University, Carbondale. Both the women ' s and men ' s teams practice seven days a week and continue their practices into the winter at Grover Center. It ' s a year-round sport and we ' re constantly playing, said Jennifer Clark, the vice-president of the women ' s team. Ultimate is always in season. The men ' s team, also known as The Stray Cats, wrapped up their 27-6 spring season by placing first in sectionals held here at OU. From there, the team traveled to the Central Region tourney in Illinois where they finished second. At Tufts University in Boston, the team placed fifth out of ten of the top-ranked teams in the nation vying for the first national collegiate tournament championship . The men ' s team consists of about 20 men who are dedicated and enthusiastic enough about ultimate frisbee to keep it going without the university ' s financial support. The club teams are responsible for providing their own equipment, transportation and lodging. To help offset some of these expenses, the team holds an annual team body auction at C.J. ' s Bar. Last year the team raised $210. Ultimate is a fever, explained junior Greg Daniels.

Langs, who received All-MAC honors, along with teammate Steve Pruett, is anxious to break into the record books by attempting a third consecutive MAC singles title in 1985. Stephenson termed it a phenomenal accomplishment that his team finished 12 points ahead of defending champion Miami and ultimately placed third overall.

This however, did not foreshadow their finish. The ladies ended their season with a 7-10 record overall, placing them seventh in the Mid-American Conference standings. First year coach Jane Burkhart and her squad of nine faced a series of mid-season losses which led to a decline in player dedication and confidence. It became apparent that OU just did not have the talent to compete in the MAC as it lost its eight of nine final matches, seven of them consecutively. Co-captains Stephanie Osborne and Donna Patterson, the number one and five singles players respectively will graduate, leaving the 1985 squad with even less depth. More problems plague the squad with only six returning players, of which three were freshmen in 1984.

The Ohio University Women ' s Field Hockey team may not have taken the Mid-American Conference title, but 1984 certainly exemplified a winning season for them. With a starting forward line of freshmen, and no graduating seniors, head coach Kim Brown realized the potential for her striking team. I definitely feel that next year ' s team is championship material, she stated. We ' ll be twice as determined, especially since we didn ' t get our chance this year. The statistics for the OU ' Cats reflect a season of inconsistency. The determination to beat a Big Ten contender such as Ohio State was offset by losses to Davis and Elkins; who was beaten by OSU. The apparent reason for such inconsistency was the inability to set the tempo of the game early in the season. With a record of 12-10-2, OU ranked fifth in the conference and placed two members on the AI1-MAC Honorable Mention list: uniors Jeri Pantalone and Linda Irace. Irace recorded 298 saves while allowing only 31 goals. Leading scorers were Lynda Vogt and Gail Lewis. A major adjustment for them and the rest of the squad, was a new college rule which removed the 16-foot shooting circle. By being able to score from anywhere on the field, OU doubled their shots on goals. This offensive advantage can allow a new strategy for this young team. With such depth and ability one can only predict a bright future for OU field hockey.

Rookies ' enthusiasm carries rugby team through season. by Michelle Coffta and Erin Sweeney Endurance and tenacity are two qualities possessed by the Ohio University women ' s rugby team. Rugby, which is a combination of soccer and football, boasts continuous action without substitutions or play stoppage. Ohio University fields a strong women ' s rugby team in fall as well as spring. The Bobcats squared off an impressive 3-1 fall record in 1984-85. I think the highlight of our season was defeating Ohio state, said Club President Rhonda McLin. It ' s always great to beat a Big Ten school. McLin cited the influx of many new players as a reason for the surge in rugby interest. Practices in the spring were poorly attended, but I think the enthusiasm of this year ' s rookies will encourage veterans to try harder. Since the team is a club sport, it is often difficult to predict which athletes will go out for the sport in a given quarter. We lost some talented players like Kim Stewart last year, but we ' ve got the talent on campus. It ' s just a matter of getting the players to go out for the sport, McLin explained.

Predictions for Spring show early optimism and hope by Michelle Coffta and Erin Sweeney ii AT e will be competitive in the Mid- V V American Conference this spring, asserts Rugby Club president Bryan Irvine. Although last spring saw the Bobcats lose to both of their MAC opponents. Irvine is optimistic that the OU rugby team will be a surp rise contender in the 1984-85 spring season. We were 3-3 in the fall. Irvine said, and with the organization of indoor practices in the winter we should dominate the MAC. The 1984-85 squad, while losing key wings Bill Scherer and Jim Clancy, will retain most of its talent to represent Ohio University this spring. The only major problems Irvine sees confronting the organization are scheduling games and soliciting crowd support. Since Ohio University ' s academic schedule is broken up into quarters, it is often difficult to schedule rugby games with universities on the semester system. This places OU at a disadvantage. Although we try to schedule around the schools on semesters, it ' s hard because they have two extra weeks of game playing, Irvine adds. We ' d also really like some more support from the student population, Irvine said. We sell beer and food at the games to try and create a ' fun ' atmosphere. I think if more students saw a game they ' d come back again. [%] 1 58 — Athletics Hough tackles slopping the action make up just one seg- ment of rugby excitement.

Although the team failed to post a winning record for the ninth straight year, the Bobcats have definitely come a long way since wrapping up the 1983-84 season. Head coach Jamie Ianni sights dedication and cohesiveness as key factors in the steady process of improvement that transformed last vear ' s dismal 6-26 season into a 14-18 overall record in 1984. Ianni ' s ' 84 squad, led by senior powerhouse Margaret Garwood and junior setter Mary Weisberger, did have its ups and downs. Surprising early victories were offset by a mid- season slump in which the ' Cats dropped six consecutive matches. However, unlike past years, the team recovered to champion six out of ten of their final matches, raising their Mid- American Conference standing from ninth to sixth. The most visible force behind OU Volleyball is senior Margaret Garwood. Garwood is ranked tenth in the nation for blocking and was the first OU player to be named a member of the second All-Conference team. Margaret is definitely an asset to the team. Ianni remarks, her improvements throughout 164 — Athletics the last four years have been incredible. But don ' t think the loss of one key player will deter the team from its course. Ianni has plenty of returning young and talented players, including two starting freshmen. And goals for the future? I ' d like to see OU ranked in the top five next year. Ianni said, and with the success we ' ve had so far, I think it ' s entirely possible. With a strong nucleus of young players returning and Ianni ' s optimistic predictions for the 1985-86 season, expect Ohio University to create some serious waves throughout the MAC in years to come. R Slafl photo Volleyball — 165 End of season turnover follows 4-4-1 record by Michelle Coffta and Erin Sweeney T ' he tradition of Ohio University football underwent a major change following the 1984 season, head coach Brian Burke and his coaching staff were relieved of their positions following the final game. This was an extremely tough decision to make, but we did not feel that the football program was proceeding as we thought it should, stated Harold McElhaney, Ohio University Athletic Director. Burke lead the Bobcats to a 31-34-1 record during his six year career, only two of them winning seasons. In his final season at the Ohio helm, Burke coached the Bobcats to a 4-6-1 record overall. 4-4-1 in the Mid-American Conference. There During a home game, a Bobcat breaks through Mi- ami ' s defensive Jine. 166 — Athletics appears to be no lack of talent on this team with Dennis Swearington directing the passing game and completing 117 of 185 throws for the year. Tom Compernolle led on the receiving end with 35 catches and a 13 yard average run. Defensively it was Brian Mays with 106 tackles on record, close to 50 of them solo. The problem appeared to be an inability to establish a running game, but on occasion being able to establish a strong passing game pulled the Bobcats through. With the loss of head coach Brian Burke OU faces the 1985 season with uncertainty. His replacement is Cleve Bryant, OU alumnus and starting quarterback for the Bobcats in 1967 and ' 68. He brings with him experience as an assistant at Miami (Ohio], North Carolina, and defensive backfield coach for the New England Patriots. His ability to communicate and recruit were cited by McElhaney as his best assets, and with these high priority coaching abilities the future of OU football looks brighter already.

Her efforts got Flory named MAC Outstanding Swimmer. Freshman Betsey Carr made history by becoming the first OU student to capture a MAC individual title in her freshman year. Carr won the 1,650 yard freestyle with a school record of 17:23.35. Junior Laura Holler placed first and second in the 100-yard breaststroke and 200-yard breaststroke respectively to set new records. Divers Amy Butler and Dayna Green aided the Bobcats with respectable fourth place finishes.

Despite the creation of ten new school records this season, the Bobcats placed a disappointing fifth in the Mid-American Conference.

Men ' s Swimming — 173 Chance in NCAA was icing to MAC title By Nick Blizzard Twenty-win seasons are getting to be a tra- dition with the Ohio University men ' s bas- ketball team. For a school record third season in a row, fifth year coach Danny Nee and his blue-collar working Bobcats conquered the 20-win barrier. But this year the Bobcats ' 22-8 mark brought them something OU students hadn ' t seen in 11 years: a regular season Mid-American Confer- ence Championship. Although the ' Cats lost to Kansas 58-49 in the first game of the NCAA. At the beginning of the season I said 14 wins would take the conference, said Nee, whose club put together 11 wins in a row mid- way through the year, a school record for con- secutive conference games won. If you would have told me in October or September that we would end up 14-4 and 20-7 I would have tak- en it and not played a game. OU ' s success was not without accolades. Ju- nior co-captain Robert Tatum (the Bobcats ' leading scorer with 15.2 a game) and senior center Vic Alexander (14.6, 7.6 rebounds] both earned second team all conference honors while senior guard Rick Scarberry received honorable mention. But in December it didn ' t appear that OU would be around to claim the conference title in late February. After a 90-73 loss at Indiana, Tatum was sidelined for four weeks with a broken hand. A few weeks later Alexander suf- fered a shinbone injury that kept him out of the starting lineup for most of the conference sea- son. With these two mishaps and an injury to another player Nee planned on starting (Steve Bruning, who was lost for the season in No- vember with a stress fracture) the Bobcats ' untested talent began to gain experience.

So opportunity came to senior first-year guard Eddie Washington, who walked onto Nee ' s squad after finishing a fine football career at OU. Also seeing plenty of ac- tion were centers Rich Stanfel, John Rhodes and freshman forward Henry Hindu Smith. Although the newcomers ' performances were solid, regulars Scarberry, Eddie Hicks and Paul Baron were expected to pick up the scoring slack while Nee pasted together what seemed to be a different starting lineup every game. In the process, the Bobcats discovered a team-oriented style which drastically differed compared to the explosiveness Nee ' s teams (led to John Deveraux) have had in the past. At one point in the season all five of OU ' s regulars were averaging more than 10 points a game. As Ball State coach put it, There ' s no one player you can key on. For team leadership, it was Baron, a junior co-captain. For defense, Hicks led the charge. Paul Baron ' s the oil in the machine, he makes everyone feel much better, Nee said. As for Hicks, who many coaches considered the conference ' s top defender, he contained the MAC ' s most explosive players all season. The 1984-85 men ' s basketball team brought a new style to the Bobcat team. Perhaps Washington said it best, We set goals. The first goal was to win the MAC Championship, then to win 20 games and then to win the tourna- ment. I really felt inside myself that I had what it takes. The coaches molded us together. It didn ' t happen overnight, it took time. We had little problems everywhere, but the seniors and the captains got everybody together. It ' s just like a unit. If one guy does something wrong, the whole team does something wrong. If we win it ' s not the five players out there that win, it ' s the whole team.

Scrambling for the balJ, ivith a Northern Illinois player breath ng down her necK is Angel Miller. Convo is packed to see Mast break record By Michelle Coffta and Erin Sweeney A tough league and a lack of consistency led the OU women ' s basketball team to a seventh place finish in the Mid-America Conference. Despite the unparalleled performance of junior sensation Caroline Mast, the ' Cats only posted an 11-6 overall record in 1985. According to first year coach Amy Pritchard, the women faced tougher MAC competition this year, as well as the necessary transition to a new coaching style. We definitely played a more defense- oriented game this year, Pritchard explains, and it necessarily took awhile for the team to adjust to my style of coaching and to learn what was expected of them. The squad improved through the season due to efforts by Mast and seniors Deneen Day and Cathy Taylor. Lack of consistency still plagued the Bobcats however. Aside from Caroline, Pritchard stated, playing ability varied widely from game to game. You just can ' t have a championship team without day-to-day consistency. The one outstanding exception is the 5 ' 11 forward from Coshocton, Ohio who breaks collegiate records with dizzying ease. Mast became all-time leading OU scorer this season, as well as all-time leading rebounder. Expectation of Mast ' s record breaking basket led students to attend the OU-Ball State game in record numbers. Mast does not confine her honors to Ohio University, however. She was 1 78 — Athletics the only unanimous pick for All-MAC this year, as well as the only Bobcat represented on the honorary team. Placing on the second All-American Academic team. Mast was also recommended for All-American honors. Although OU is known throughout the MAC as a one player ball club, Pritchard sees a definite nucleus of strong sophomores and juniors returning to see the bulk of next year ' s playing time. With the transition of two transfer students and talented freshman recruits, Pritchard looks for a top five MAC finish in 1986.

The vast amount of individual improvement over last year was particularly exemplified in sophomore Darrin Mossing who took the MAC title in the 134 pound weight class and lead the Bobcat to a fourth place finish at the MAC tournament. We improved quite a bit over last year, said Coach Harry Houska. Senior co-captain Dick Zippert reiterated the team ' s success by stating. The improvement from one year to the next with basically two changes in the lineup was great. The key to the ' Cats development of some quality young wrestlers such as freshmen Ben Collado and Larry Grimes along with veteran seniors Dick Zippert and Jeff Courinos who added depth and experience to the squad. The Mid-American Conference Wrestling Championships, a two day event held at the convocation Center, brought a first place finish to the Northern Illinois Huskies. OU was unable to match the Huskies who amassed 89 points to the Bobcats 43 and held a 40 point spread over second place Kent State. Following Mossing ' s first place finish over Miami ' s Mark Townley were four other Bobcats who placed in the top four of their 1 80 — Athletics Trying not to lose his Miami opponent is Ben Collado. respective weight classes. Seniors Dick Zippert and Jeff Courinos finished second at 158 pounds and third at 190 pounds respectively, while junior Kevin Penzato (150) and sophomore )ohn Szalai (167) finished third in their weight classes. Several players racked up an impressive number of wins for the season despite the tough competition. With the experience and improvement gained during the season the team looks to a bright future. f T] WRESTLING. Front: Mori; Bos- ton. Dorrin Mossing. Nick Mayer, Mark IV ' imberiy, Ben Coiiado.

Ultimate Frisbee. by Erin Sweeney and Michelle Coffta Do you relish spirited competition and the thrill of victory but find there ' s no place for you at the collegiate level? Perhaps you were a high school letterwinner or someone who just enjoys physical activity and fitness. Either way, Ohio University ' s club sports program has the answer for you. With over 20 different activities to choose from, there ' s something for everyone: from boxing to waterskiing to orienteering. Many OU students are unaware of club sports and the diversity they represent. Club sports offer many opportunities and students should take advantage of them is how Bob Bell, president of Power Volleyball, feels about the program. It ' s not difficult to get involved, all it takes is a desire to play and a liberal amount of dedication to the sport. It may seem like a lot of hard work, time, and expense, but the benefits far outweigh the costs. Most students are at least acquainted with the more popular club sports such as ice hockey but what about the Rifle Club, Waterskiing Club, or Tae Kwon Do? Some of these such as the OU Karate Club, have been in existence for some time. Sean Jones, an officer of the Karate Club, stated that their club was founded over 20 years ago and is one of the oldest in Ohio. The competition is fierce and some of the 48 members have gone to the Pan American Games in the past. With such intense contention, practice is year- round on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at the Grover Dance Studio. Club sports do offer serious competition for those involved. The Orienteering Club, run by President Ann Cottier, is one such example. Mitch Bentley, a cross country runner for OU has even competed at the international level by attending orienteering meets in Europe. For those of us who don ' t know, orienteering s considered a combination of cross country ' running, land navigation, and topographical map reading. A participant runs a course equipped with only a compass and the map; whoever finishes first is the winner. Competition is divided by age bracket and skill level, men are pitted against men. women against women, except in team competition. There are approximately 10 to 15 members on the team and spring remains their most active time of the year when they hold meets at Stroud ' s Run with ROTC. Power Volleyball is a sport which has grown out of a men ' s varsity team. In existence since 1978, it has maintained a good reputation with the university. This co-ed squad consists of approximately 20 people divided into A and B teams competing against regional teams in Ohio and then leading to National Playoffs. At this level the squad â– â– nM 1 82 — Athletics A breather during an ener- getic lacrosse match is a wel- comed moment.

Club Sports — 183 r CJub Sports: a JeveJ between intramural s varsity athletics faces confrontations with such varsity teams as Notre Dame, Purdue, and the University of Michigan. If what you ' re looking for isn ' t available, then you can attempt to form your own club sport. In order to be recognized as an organization and qualify for funds from the Student Activities Committee, a club sport must be a registered student organization which is done through the Student Life Office at Baker Center. This involves filling out several forms concerning the type of sport, number of players, and a statement of purpose. Once these are completed and approved you have an official club sport. If you ' re in need of fellow players who share your interest don ' t be distressed. A list of all sports, their officers, and how to contact them is displayed in Grover Center near the Intramural Office. Here you can get a form to join the sport you ' re interested in or possibly a chance to try out. To qualify, you must be registered for at least seven hours of academics and there is usually a fee involved which varies with each individual sport. Club sports have much to offer those involved and Paul Chatel of the OU Barbell 1 84 — Athletics Toe Kwon-Do demands a firm discipline of the mind and body.

Awareness remains a major obstacle; participants work diligently for recognition but it seems that student apathy is a prevailing factor as far as spectators.

Students and faculty enjoy a change of pace in schedule by Gemma Eiswerth Jntramural sports are open to all students, faculty or staff interested in playing in competitive, organized sports, but not quite up to playing on the official OU teams. One can participate as an individual or as part of a team. OU offers a large and diverse program. The events range from bocciball to water polo to tug-of-war. Fourteen events are offered in the fall, 13 in the winter, and 17 in the spring. From the numbers, many look forward to participating in the different activities, said Dick Woolison, director of intramural club sports. Indeed it is a popular program at OU. Last year, there were 12,140 participants in the intramural program. (That could be counting some people more than once, if they were signed up for more than one event during the year.) Junior Dan Hudson is just one of the thousands of people who takes advantage of what the intramural program has to offer. It gives me a chance to play on a team again, like in high school, commented Hudson. Hudson played basketball in high school and has been on an intramural basketball team all three years he ' s been at OU. Although basketball is his first love, he also participated in other intramural offerings: football (both coed and men ' s], broomball and softball. I love sports, and intramurals is a great way to get involved, added Hudson. Woolison said broomball is one of the most unusual intramural events. OU was one of the first universities to offer it. It seems to be one of the best liked sports, observed Woolison. But because of limited ice time, the number of teams has to be limited to 150. And Woolison said they usually have to turn a few teams away. 1 86 — AthJetics Sports Administral on and the Delt Crush were two of many intramurai footbail teams that were co-ed.

Students and faculty enjoy a change of pace in schedule One of the most unusual intramural sports, is a very common all American sport: baseball. OU is one of the only universities in the country that offers baseball.lt is also the only intramural sport that requires an entry fee. That is for safety equipment and new balls for every game. Because of the expense the number of teams must be limited to 16. Woolison said, We opened at 8 am and by 8:15 all 16 slots were filled. Then, there ' s Softball. There is no limit to the number of teams that can play and it ' s the most popular event. Those two factors equal between 275 and 280 teams for the spring competition. Woolison added that there are always men, women and coed teams we never make distinctions among the sports. Also the faculty and staff play along side the students, there are no distinctions there either. The intramural program is free to full time students, faculty and staff. Officials, scorers and equipment are supplied. And the winners of each event receive a framed certificate at the end of the season indicating that they were the champs. Intramurals is open to students, faculty and staff interested in competition with like teams, concluded Woolison. So, if one ' s interested in exercise, fun and competition, the intramural program has a lot to offer. [ig| 188 — Athletics Stdll phot. Broomba J can turn out to be a wild version of Hockey.

Denton has been involved with Stu- dent Senate for over a year and since his involvement, he ' s seen an increase in student participation. I ' m finding more clubs are sponsoring events, so there has to be more student involvement, said Denton. Whatever your fancy, there ' s an or- ganization for you. The Student Activit- ies Commission has 186 registered or- ganizations, from Advertising Club to Water Ski Team. There is no limit to the number of or- ganizations one can join, only the inter- est and time constrictions of the stu- dent. There are no set standards to join the organizations, each group estab- lishes its own guidelines. SAC Director Terry Hogan said that the number of organizations stays roughly about the same from year to year. But Hogan claims, The types of organizations are changing. We ' re see- ing more academic and less political and cause-oriented organizations. Hogan said it appears that more stu- dents are interested in joining organiz- ations because there has been an in- crease in inquires about them.

INFORMAL GATHERING S Unrestricted organization and unusual meeting places draw people into new groups by Kim Walker n hi ° Wbool Sljff plinlu A group of two Sigma Kappa ' s passing a spring a fternoon on a Blndow ledge is a Bothering bused on friendship. Informal gatherings are sometimes sparked by an unusual event. In this case. Brown all residents and friends watch a fraternity event on South Green. University ' s Student Hand- ' book contains lists of even, ' orga- nized association and or clique on campus. Dynamic and outgoing pursu- ers fulfill their schedules with such things to do as rushing a sorority or fraternity, joining the ad or art club, and signing up for intramural sports. When those inspired Bobcats aren ' t planning or organizing a meeting, where are they? After leaving the classroom, students casually socialize on the benches in front of Bentley and Chubb or in front of Morton. Whether it ' s to borrow notes for history class or pass on a new joke, people stop to say hello any time of the day. Sometimes a great meeting place can be on The Wall at the Frontier Room. It gives you the opportunity to drink cold beer, chat with old friends, or simply gaze at the passersby. Old friends introduce you to new friends and your list becomes infinite. You don ' t need an organization to do just that.

[J] Informal Gatherings 195 SPORTS GROUPS WITH A TWIST OU offers serious alternatives to the conventional group system By Gemma Eiswerth OU has all the major varsity sports, but it also offers several sporting groups for people interested in the less traditional activities. Volleyball may be a popular backyard activity. But the OU Power Volleyball team has sincere, dedicated players. The team practices five days a week. The team travels to compete in tour- naments. There are four other schools in OU ' s league; Bowling Green. Tole- do. Notre Dame and the University of Michigan. Of the five teams, OU placed first in the league. OU has a unique team, in that it is the only coed team in the league. New rules adopted by the league say that no women are to play on the teams. But President Bob Bell said. We have a sincere interest in keeping the club coed. So the team continues to operate under the old structure. Along with traveling to tournaments. OU also hosted one. February second, Miami, Ohio Wesleyan and Wooster traveled to OU. Ohio Wesleyan re- ceived top honors, with OU finishing a close second. The OU Rifle Team also travels for competitions. They went to the smallbore (.22 caliber] competition in the Lake Erie Intercollegiate Rifle League. The OU team shot against both club and varsity NCAA teams. They shoot targets from three posi- tions; standing, kneeling and prone. The team practiced once a week in the range under Peden Stadium. The Tae Kwon-Do club does not do much traveling, but it offers students interested in the marshal art of Tae Kwon-Do the chance to practice and improve upon their skill. President Charles Munguia said the group gives demonstrations to acquaint people with the marshal art and give them an idea of what it ' s about. It ' s the Korean Style of the marshal art and uses the feet and hands, said Munguia. The group practices four nights a week learning and perfecting the tradi- tional style. Whether one wants to spend one or five days a week practicing, there are a wide array of sporting activities. [ 7| TAE KWON-DO. Front: Scott Miles, Joe Mid- dleman.

One can gain that needed experience through such clubs as the Advertising Club. Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA], or the Hearing and Speech Club. According to jeanette Gianfagna, Ad Club ' s president, Ad Club ' s main project was to work on a campaign for the American Advertising Federation. We received an imaginary budget and account and worked on it like a real advertising agency would. To raise money for this campaign they held a raffle and sold t-shirts during the school year. The club began in 1976, according to Jeanette, and this year was a rebuilding year. The group ' s plans for next year include another campaign and increasing their membership even more. Along with Ad Club, PRSSA— Public Relations Student Society of America — also had a very busy year. Two representatives from the club at- tended the annual public relations con- vention held in Colorado. One of the major projects worked on and planned by the group was Communications Week during spring quarter. The club itself is divided into many areas: the ju- nior and senior members worked on actual accounts for businesses that brought the club $75 for each account, while the freshmen and sophomore members were encouraged to work on one of the five different committees within the group. Besides the Ad Club and PRSSA, there is also a Hearing and Speech Club. Even though the club is consider- ably smaller (15 to 20 people] than the other two groups, they have also ac- complished quite a lot. One on-going project they had was to provide the children that attended the hearing and speech clinic with entertainment at dif- ferent times during the year. They usually had parties for the children during different holidays. They also helped the clinic by purchasing materi- als through fund-raisers like selling t- shirts, car washes and bake sales. A big project that the group worked on was the Spring Alumni Day. They invited the alumni back to lecture and teach workshops. The group was rekindled in 1980 locally and they plan to stay a lo- cal group, not grow to the national lev- el like the Ad Club and PRSSA. All three of these clubs van, ' in size, but they give their members one thing in common, experience to gain good jobs in the working market.

Members of the Green and White Chess Club meet for an afternoon of chess at Baiter Cen- ter. 200 — Organizations SOUTH GRBM COUNCIL, SNOWBIRDS, GALA Three groups that focus on service, community, recreation and culture add to the university atmosphere in differing ways by Laurie Sutkus A wide variety of organizations are available to OU students. The Snowbirds, South Green Council and Gay and Lesbian Association are only three of these organizations. South Green Council ' s main purpose is to sponsor activities for the residents of South Green, according to President Wendy Strack. The council consists of 25 representatives from each of the hall governments. In the fall, the council sponsored a blood drive in coordination with the Athens Red Cross, added Strack. The primary activity the council or- ganizes is South Green Weekend. Dur- ing the weekend extravaganza, 12 to 14 bands, ranging from jazz to country- western to rock and roll, travel to South Green to display their musical talent. In general, it ' s one big party. We have a cookout, sell beer and have vendors selling food, said Strack. The Snowbirds, Ohio University ' s ski club, is a social as well as a recreational club, said President Chuck Deems. The club often hosts parties and has its meetings at different bars uptown. This year the club took four long dis- tance ski trips and seven weekend trips to local slopes. A trip to Aspen, Colorado high- lighted winter break. While other OU students basked in the sun during spring break, some members of the club journeyed to Steamboat Springs, Colorado. We ' ve also taken trips to Holiday Valley in New York and Seven Springs in Pennsylvania, Deem said. The purpose of GALA is to provide a means of social contact for gays and lesbians and those not yet certain of their sexual orientation, said Steven Renner, former chairman of GALA. The association ' s meetings focus on the political issues regarding emotional and sexual human rights. They also act as a social gathering and support group adds Renner. GALA sponsors various speakers and hosts a gay awareness week each spring. In 1984, GALA tried to pass a gay- rights ordinance in the city, said Renner. The organization has recently estab- lished a gay studies fund for the purpose of purchasing books, periodicals and audio visuals for Al- den Library. Four days a week, GALA sponsors a phone line. The program is for people to call in and have their questions re- garding sexual orientation answered by trained volunteers, said Renner. % GALA: Gerald Herron, secretury, Steven Renner.

Student Senate, under the guidance of president Neal Denton, is continuing to commit itself to bettering the lives of students at OU. This year the group has enlarged the successful Student Escort Service by including the off-campus community in the escort area. Senate has issued a course description guide for the College of Communication and is continuing their work on the alterna- tive bookstore. SAB also had a busy schedule during the year. They are in charge of distrib- uting final exam Survival Kits, pro- grams for Mom ' s Weekend and coordi- nating the newly-created, but successful. Senior Weekend. SAB also helped a phone-a-thon raise money to create a scholarship commemorating the 35th reunion of the Class of 1950. CPB is an organization that keeps its hand in almost every major event at OU. In an effort to please the many diverse personalities of the students here, they sponsored a wide variety of events throughout the year. The many themed parties held in Ba- ker Center Ballroom, usually complete with live bands, a cash bar and re- freshments, such as the Luau, are CPB type activities. Also popular are the After Midnight parties, where the excitement and energy of the New York City nightlife is brought to Ath- ens. Center Program Board also plays a big part in the Homecoming activities at OU. They are in charge of organizing the parade, as well as sponsoring the bonfire and pep rally held at Peden Stadium every year be- fore the game. Other responsibilities of CPB include: brochures for special week- ends such as Mom ' s Weekend; helping with the Beach Party at Bird Arena, a major fund raiser for Springfest; and they helped plan the twister game at Bird Arena. Organizations such as Student Sen- ate, Student Alumni Board and Center Program Board add to the quality of student life at OU. Although their work may be taken for granted by some, they are composed of dedicated, hard- working people. They would be sorely mised by the majority of students if they weren ' t around. Kesler.

Phi Gam- ma Nu, Mortar Board and Gospel Voices of Faith are three such opportunities. Phi Gamma Nu, a business honorary, used its recognition to maintain an ac- tive schedule. As fund raisers, the group had an OU clock sale, a Valentine ' s Day button sale, a quarterly pop sale, and several other minor activ- ities. They plan to use the money raised to finance a trip spring quarter, 1985. It would involve traveling to Washington D.C. to visit several corporations. Other notable accomplishments are volunteering for the Red Cross Blood- mobile and the Athens Mental Health Center, and attending the annual Phi Gamma Nu Founders ' Day celebration in February. Phi Gamma Nu offers the opportu- nity to meet professionals in our field in addition to learning about careers for direction, said president Karyle Fitzpatrick. Gospel Voices of Faith is a singing group meant to uplift the name of Christ through song and exhaltation of Christian unity according to their motto. They achieve this through singing on campus for occasions like Martin Luther King Day and away from campus with concerts at Mt. Zion Church in Cincinnati. Sophomore Natalie Banks said that this religious organization provides fellowship and spreads the Word through song. Mortar Board is a selective honor society which is open to any major. Thirty-five students are chosen from the junior class to be members during their senior year in school. This membership is based on scholarship, leadership and service, as well as nominations by administrators and professors according to president Gwen Howe. This group was involved with the president ' s Scholarship trophies, usher- ing graduation in the spring, a tea with faculty fellows, volunteering for the bloodmobile, donating money toward The Post ' s Christmas Wishbook, and a Valentine ' s Day raffle. [%] Another religion-based organization on cam- pus is the Navigators. Here they have a song session during one of their meetings in Mor- ton HaiJ. 204 — Organizations r « i it 1 4 . .

The market- ing club ' s big project was to get stu- dents to apply for major credit cards. According to this year ' s president. Debbie Forgrave, we also did major research projects for a company in Findley. Ohio. OUAMA tried to get speakers from the professional field of marketing to attend their meetings and talk about their field of work. One speaker they had was from the XEROX company. Their group enrollment has more than doubled from last year; 45 to 92 people this year. Besides the OUAMA club, the ASID club also had an increase in the amount of members. President Lisa Lyman stated that every year a few more people find out about the club and join. The club met a certain day every week and also enjoyed a guest speaker at several of their meetings. Their speakers were from their field of interest. Lisa also said, the club at- tended two conventions during the school year; one in North Carolina and one in Michigan. The CSB Club was a relatively new one, but their president Scott Wright thought they had accomplished much during the year. He said, we took a tour of the Nationwide Insurance building in Columbus and CinComm in Cincinnati. Besides concentrating in their field, Scott also added that they had incorporated a few workshops into their program, one such program was a resume workshop. All of these clubs, OUAMA, CSB, and ASID vary in many ways, but have one common goal: to give OU students the necessary experience in their major fields of interests, (oil By: Jeanine Ward Members in attendance at most OU Sludenl Recycling Group meet- ings are Edie Slerbenz.

Wallick What is 9x14, has 272 pages and costs over $25,000 to produce? No need to try guessing. You ' re holding it in your hands right now, the Athena Yearbook. Everything inside the Athena happens in a year ' s time. Since 1936 it has spared the faded newspaper clippings and bent photos students col- lected of their college years, from be- coming only a memory. No longer were the years at OU left to happenstance. As our publisher rightfully states. Memories fade, yearbooks don ' t. Today, 60 years older, the Athena is still faithfully turning out a publication which preserves the year ' s happenings from freshmen to alumni. As the times have changed, likewise has the yearbook. Since its appearance on campus it has improved vastly. It has increased form its original size of OVixll, went from no color to color, which has now tripled in pages since 1983, had as few as 112 pages and changed names twice. The first name change occured in 1975 when the staff felt that the change would better repre- sent the campus and the times. From 1975 to 1983 the yearbook was called The Spectrum Green. During those years the book was more issue oriented than event oriented and the format changed every year. With the coming of the university ' s 180th anniversary, the name was changed back to the original Athena. This move helped re-establish the year- book on campus, at the same time, celebrate tradition and a more stable editorial content. Unlike the yearbook at Kent State, which after its 71st year is printing its last volume this year, the Athena is still going strong. Across the state and na- tion as well, yearbooks are finding that it ' s not getting any easier. It hasn ' t been easy for the Athena either, but the small group of staff members manage to pull it off each year. The main struggles have been PR, sales and senior sittings. But since the name change in ' 84 things have looked up. Even though students now know that the university has a yearbook, only 1,000 of the 15,000 students buy a book. And of all the space available for indi- vidual senior portraits, only 900 of the 2,500 manage to find time to sit in front of the camera and smile for the birdie. Many times a person will call and ask for their yearbook a few years after they graduate and most times the pub- lisher nor the yearbook staff have any extra copies and the alumnis is left out. Despite these unexplainable facts the yearbook is improving and is a small treasure for those who are fortunate enough to have remembered to buy one. This year has been no exception to the past years. There will always be rough ends which can be as big as late pictures and stories, low advertising re- sponse, money shortages to shortage of photo paper and only one cropping pencil to pass around. Tempers and nerves tend to run short on pressing deadlines, when all of us need eight more hours of sleep, time to study for a test or time to just sit and take a breath- er. It took us one summer and two quar- ters and uncountable hours in the mak- ing and this is it. This is our $25,000 baby. We hope you enjoy it as much as we, in the long run, have enjoyed mak- ing it for you. % 208 — Organizations ATHENA YEARBOOK.

Vanessa GREEK SYSTEM INVOLVEMENT Fraternities and sororities show how fun it can he to do more than study By Gemma Eiswerth Jt ' s true, Athens is a college town. But the Athens community has special needs just like any other American city or town. The members of the greek sys- tem at OU take the time to get involved with the community and help out where they can. The greek system also offers students the opportunity to be part of a special family while living away from their natural families. The brothers of Delta Tau participate in a big-little brother program with the Athens Children Service. Some of the Delt ' s adopt a disadvantaged boy, who may not have a family of his own, from the service. Then once a week or so the two brothers will do something special together. Also, during spring quarter the Delt ' s rebuilt the Church Street playground. They leveled the ground and put up railroad ties to keep it from flooding. Junior Mark Helmus, activities chair- man said, Delta Tau Delta offers di- versity. We have lots of types of people. We try not to characterize people and just accept them as they are. Senior Kimi Morris, president of the Phi Mu ' s said her sorority is very diverse. It ' s open and outgoing. And we get very involved. Indeed they do. The Phi Mu ' s held a telethon and an ice cream social for Project Hope. Project Hope is in- volved with helping under-developed countries. They collected the most food in the Lambda Chi food drive for the Red Cross. They also participated in Sigma Chi ' s Siglympics and donated to the American Cancer Society through Beta Theta Pi. Participating in the recycling program is another way the Phi Mu ' s get involved with the community. All this earned them The Chapter of the Quarter in the fall from their nationals. Morris sums it all up, It ' s a place to grow into a successful woman. The Alpha Delta Pi sorority also par- ticipated in the Lambda Chi food drive. They turned some of their efforts to- wards raising money for Ronald Mc- Donald houses. They did this by selling buttons on Mom ' s Weekend. President Luarie Hayden said, The sorority is good for building leadership skills because everyone gets an office. It helps you to meet people. And we become very close. We also get in- volved with the community. Getting involved with the university is important too. The Chi Omega ' s helped the school of theater by usher- ing plays. Having a professor tea was a way for the professors to get to know some of their students outside of the classroom and vice versa. They also participated in Siglympics. They were involved with the com- munity by visiting the Hickory Creek Nursing Home. On Valentine ' s Day some of the Chi O ' s delivered cards and cookies to the elderly. The Chi O ' s were second overall for the highest GPA in the greek system fall quarter. junior Natalie Phillips said, Chi Omega offers a strong sisterhood. There ' s lots of room for individuality and growth. The sororities and fraternities at OU don ' t only work on bettering their indi- vidual houses, but they get involved with the university and community as well. |0|i Holmes. Brendo Poivell.

A SISTERHOOD OF SORORITIES Community involvement, activities in greek system, and charitable contributions keep them on their toes By Gemma Eiswerth Social activities are a big part of the sorority life, along with building a close sisterhood. But getting involved with the community and raising money for charitable organizations also are key roles in sorority life. We try to help the community, it helps encourage responsibility and helps build leadership, said Pi Phi president for ' 85- ' 86 Jean Sheldon. The Pi Phi ' s put a lot of effort into philanthropy projects during the year. They donated clothes to My Sisters Place, participated in the Wellness Program Jump Rope for Heart and donated the money to the American Heart Association, helped the Kiwanis Club with their pancake dinner, and collected money for Muscular Dystro- phy with Siglympics. The Pi Phi ' s were active within the greek system too. During spring quarter Greek Week they came in s econd overall and first in the banner contest. The Alpha Xi Delta sorority also joined in raising money for MD during Siglympics. They also helped the Lambda Chi ' s gather canned food for the Athens Red Cross. During spring quarter the Fuzzies caddied for a golf tournament at the OU Golf Course to raise money for the Lung Association. Scholastic achievement plays an im- portant role in the Delta Sigma Theta, Inc. sorority. During spring quarter they raised enough money for two $100 Sadi T.M. Alexander scholarships. This win- ter they awarded a $500 scholarship to the person who sold the most ads for Jabberwock. Jabberwock is a booklet that is 212 Greeks ALPHA XI DELTA.

This year they held a Family Feud among the greeks along with other ac- tivities. Delta Sigma Theta also volunteered at the Athens Mental Health Center and they collected money for the Sickle Cell Foundation by trick-or-treating on the street corners during Halloween. Sisterhood is important in sorority life and so is helping those in need. [q7] Pi BETA PHI. Greeks — 213 GREEKS Efforts are made to make the system more cohesive By Gemma Eiswerth No college campus would be com- plete without a greek system. The greek system at OU is diverse and of- fers students an opportunity to join the type of sorority or fraternity that fits their own personality. The National Pan-Hellenic Council, NPHC, gives the black sororities and fraternities a chance to get together and talk about programming and talk about different problems within the system. said senior Paul Mosley, president of NPHC. NPHC includes the entire black greek system and according to Mosley, promotes greek unity. However, Mosley said NPHC worked on getting more involved with the entire greek system this year. He said he wants the entire system to be- come a more cohesive group. Senior Brian Breittholz president of the Phi Kappa Tau fraternity said, We pride ourselves with close brotherhood, while stressing academics. The Phi Tau ' s are also very involved with helping the university, community and charitable organizations. They helped raise money in a phone-a-thon for the Ohio University General Fund. They had over 30 brothers participate and raised $20,000 for OU. They also got involved with helping the community through the Athens County Book Sale. And their annual dance marathon for Muscular Dystro- phy has raised over $30,000 for MD over the last nine years. Fall of 1984 saw the Phi Tau ' s initiate its largest pledge class in 11 years. The trend is now moving towards larger greek systems. More students are interested in getting involved. The sys- tem has a lot to offer in helping a stu- dent receive a well rounded college experience. gr| 214 — Greeks NATIONAL PANHELLEN- IC COUNCIL.

That q- quarter four years ago 2,986 new students emerged onto the OU campus. Many have come and gone since that time. According to Gary Moden, direc- tor of the Institution of Research, about 50% of the original freshmen graduate from OU. That ' s a little above the na- tional average. Through the good times and the bad hundreds of students have stuck it out. This class came in at a time when the university turned a corner. This class seems to have special attatchment to this institution, said Dean of Stu- dents Joel Rudy. Rudy said the leadership of this class is exceptional, adding that Senior Class President Paula Keiffer and her staff are doing an outstanding job. They are not only working for the present, but the future as well. I seem to know more seniors this year and I have to believe it ' s because they ' re more involved, explained Rudy. Rudy said it seems that more seniors have kept active than in the past. He feels that is a positive sign. About 2,500 seniors will graduate in June 1985, and Rudy said, We ' ll prob- ably see a more effective job place- ment. Oh Yeah!

By Betsy Uppy Facing optimistic job-outiooks seniors await the pay-off Take A Closer Look Approximately 2,500 graduates will leave OU ' s campus in June and venture into the working world. Those 2,500 represent only about half of the students who began the academic journey through higher education four years ago. And, according to adminis- trators, that trek through the tiers will pay off in the form of job availabilities for graduating seniors. We ' re seeing a very steady and consistent growth in employment, said Bobbi Frey, placement coordinator with Career Planning and Placement. Overall, the outlook is very good. She added that while most categories of employment have substantially in- creased in reference to hiring college graduates, electrical engineering has been the field with the most openings. Even in bad years, the job outlook is strong for engineering majors, ex- plained Richard Robe, dean of the Col- lege of Engineering and Technology. A very high percentage of our stu- dents are placed in jobs in their fields. Several of the other college deans are just as optimistic. For students graduating from the College of Busi- ness Administration, the job outlook is the strongest it ' s been in four to five years, according to Dean John Stinson. Likewise, Dora Wilson, dean of the College of Fine Arts, claims, The aca- demic curriculum in the college pre- pares students for a wide selection of careers. We have a great diversity and when students apply their skills in the proper area, they have a good ' market- ability ' . Some graduating seniors, however, fail to be so optimistic. One senior psy- chology major admits, Various sources have told me I won ' t get anything, es- pecially in this area, without a master ' s degree. Dee Hollis, a senior from Elyria, Ohio, graduating with a degree in social work said, The need for so- cial workers is on the rise this year, particularly in mental health and geriatrics, but those jobs usually begin at very low salaries. Despite these drawbacks, students graduating from OU will have an edge on, or will be equally competitive with their counterparts from other regional schools. OU is in the top two or three in the region, said Dean Stinson. We ' re up there with Miami and Michigan. Dean Robe agreed saying. A diploma from OU competes very well. We ' ve had many major corpora- tions, from GE and on down, hire our graduates. That speaks for itself, he concluded. Placement coordinator Dobbi Frey attributes OU ' s prestige to the growing popularity and increased quality of its academic progr ams. But, she also ad- (contlnued on p 221 A Closer Look — 219 Some students like Jim Donchess have planned to continue their education after receiving their Bache- lor ' s degree.

Counselor, Robert Faine helps students prepare for the big moment. 220 — Seniors n v balance 4u. Opening Ihe door !o CPP of- len leads studenls (o a less hectic job search. Facing optimistic job-outlooks seniors await the pay-ofj mits that OU ' s students are equally impressive. Employers have told me that the OU grads they hired are very capable, quickly promoted and that they are much more preferred. However, an OU degree, no matter how impressive it appears, or a GPA, are not the only qualifications a gradu- ating senior should carry into an inter- view. I don ' t think an employer is ever totally impressed with a degree, explained Frey. They look at leader- ship skills, career-related experiences and those qualities that make for a well-rounded person. And, according to the 1985 Northwestern Endicott Re- port on employment trends for college graduates in business, 52 percent of the corporate respondents said that grades were not a predictor of future success in their companies and, therefore were not a prime factor in hiring. All thumbs are pointing up for OU ' s graduating seniors. The economy is on the rise; administrators are optimistic; and the overall job outlook is strong. Four years of studying, taking exams and awaiting grades have finally come to an end and. if the predictions hold true, they will pay off for the 1985 grads. fu] A Closer Look 221 Congratulations 1985 Seniors Class officers increased involvement and built pride A major goal of the 1985 class offi- cers was increased involvement by class members. With that, a sense of pride for Ohio University would be carried with them when they left Ath- ens. The first step in creating this sense of involvement was the establishment of the Senior Executive Council, a group of thirty to forty volunteers who, together with the class officers, planned and carried out class activities and fund raisers. The Senior Discount Card, a service for seniors allowed them to receive dis- counts from over 10 Athens merchants and raised over $300 for the class. The Homecoming Run, an annual event sponsored by the senior class and the Alumni Association, raised over $350 that went into the Senior Class Schol- arship Fund. In an effort to raise enough money for the class gift of a brass flag pole to complement the Peden Stadium renovation, the class officers initiated a Senior Phone-A-Thon. A phone- a-thon has been successful on other campuses around the country, but it ' s never been tried at Ohio University. said Brenda Pool, treasurer of the class of 1985. Just as we expected, the seniors really responded well as we collected over $2,000 in pledges. Because of the added publicity commencement had generated in the past few years, the class officers felt a genuine need to get more involved with the planning of the 1985 ceremo- ny. As a result, the officers, with the help of the executive council sent congratulatory cards to all seniors, who worked with various university committees and with President Ping in attempting to bring a nationally known figure to speak at commence- ment. Overall, we were very pleased with how the seniors responded to all of our activities. said Paula Keiffer, president of the class. We felt our main goal, that of generating a pride in OU through our activities, was achieved. Ken Karch.

Buchana ournaJism 224 — Seniors By Gemma Eiswerth Life in the Fast Food Lane Cheeseburger in Paradise: lack of proper cooking skills leads students to ordering out I o you have enough food? Are -• . you eating enough? Does that sound familiar? Well I talk to my mom about twice every three weeks and at least once during the phone visit these questions are injected into the conversation. I always say yes. But she knows my eating habits and college life easily lends itself to bad eating habits. So ev- ery once in a while a few cans of soup, tuna fish and fruit show up on my doorstep. Since I don ' t cook, don ' t know how nor have any desire to learn, she has to send things that come ready made, or close to ready made. Soup is one of the few things I can prepare using a heating source. Frozen pizzas and hotdogs happen to be about the only other things I don ' t burn with regularity. But I don ' t worry too much about not having enough to eat. In this great modern society of ours, one can get al- most anything at a fast food restaurant. Better yet, Athens has a wide assortment of food places that one nev- er even has to step foot in to indulge in their specific specialty. Just pick up the phone and within 30 to 40 minutes a hot sausage pizza, juicy beef hoagy or succulent turkey sub is on the table. And never in short supply, the Ken- tucky Fried Chicken ' s, McDonald ' s, Hardees ' , Rax ' s, etc. of the world are just a short drive (or nice hike) away. I suppose once OU isn ' t home anymore I ' ll probably have to put a lit- tle time into supplying my body with food substances. But being in college and not on the meal plan, it ' s easier and less dangerous to let someone else prepare my food. College life in the fast food lane.

This scene is as American as mom and apple pie. Sounds have been echoing out of Cutler Hall tower for the past 164 years. The first sounds from the tower came in 1820 from the bell, the same one that still rings on the hour today. In 1917, the graduating class set the groundwork to provide Cutler Hall tower with chimes. But, in 1940 this fund was still in existence and the $28, 000 accumulated was spent on the con- struction of the Class Gateway. So where did the chimes come from? Good question, one that no one knows the answer to. Thank you who ever you were. The sounds you hear now are not chimes that are hand operated as in the beginning days of the chimes but, they are chimes on a tape recording. This came about in the early sixties when the chimes started to age. This prompted the sounds that we hear to- day. The chimes system in use today was donated by OU Alumnus Stewart McKee in 1964. A plaque in the lobby of Culter Hall honors Mr. McKee, the donator of our present daytime chimes system. As stu- dents of OU, we would like to personally thank Mr. McKee for pro- viding us with a means of keeping in touch with the images of traditional college life. Thank you, sir.

' hen walking on the Col- lege Green, whether to class, the library, or uptown, one is likely to notice a monument of tradi- tion and history, yet a recreational sight known as The Statue. Students congregate daily on the steps surrounding the archaic monu- ment to discuss homework, week- ends, or simply to take a break from routine. The statue has become an occasional meeting place for every- one, as well as an important part of the growing historical beauty sur- rounding OU. The statue was erected in 1893 in memory of the soldiers and sailors who fought in defense of the Union from 1861 to 1865. Athens County contributed 2,610 men to fight for the Union, to perpetuate free govern- ment. The statue is a symbol repre- senting patriotism, valor and an undying love for the freedom of this country. The statue consists of five soldiers, four around the lower stage and one alone on the top. The men are each dressed in a different uniform. Each holds a gun at one side which once destroyed the enemy. The five men represent an army of courageous fighters from a town we call home. The monument is also decorated with several steel plates which present different factual readings of what occured with the history of the statue itself. It lists the Board of Commissioners whose status and contributions led to the building and declaration of the statue. Some years after the statue was placed on campus, a motion was giv- en to build walkways around the ex- terior and seats that would offer ad- mirers a place to sit and enjoy the historical scenery. Although the statue has been the It ' s more than a monumental experience The Statue sight for an occasional Toga Party or toilet paper escapade, it was erected as a Call to Glory and now remains a campus tradition and a comfortable place to visit, [if] The monument on the College Green is a popular congregation spot for students- Students con always be seen relaxing and watching pussersby from the statue steps.

Ganson Matft I d Christine E Gardner Spei : .- The comedy class here at Ohio University is one of only three like it offered at colleges and univer- sities in the United States. Its popularity has grown dramatically over the years. Each class contains approximately fifteen students and at the helm, all his witt and wisdom, is Melvin Helitzer. Helitzer is an associate professor of journalism here at Ohio University. He has been writing humor for over thirty years. In 1956 he was part of Comedy Class Live Adlai Stevenson ' s speech writing team, directing radio and TV. He has written award winning humor com- mercials, as well as material for Sam- my Davis Jr., Art Linkletter and Shirley Temple. And now he has created and is currently teaching the humor writing course here at OU. The course has been described as a true workshop with hands-on experience in writing, critiquing, pro- ducing performing and selling materi- al. The course outline includes psychological theories of humor, how to write humor into a speech, how to submit humor articles to publications and how to write humorous advertis- ing copy. Students also learn how to make money writing greeting cards, t-shirt logos, bumper stickers and posters. The final exam is taken at the Fron- tier Room in Baker Center. Most would say that this sounds pretty easy, but these students have to perform a stand-up comedy routine in front of a packed room full of fellow OU stu- dents as their final exam. And if that doesn ' t sound nerve wracking enough, their grade is based on audience ap- plause. Can someone be taught to be fun- ny? Helitzer says, Yes. If the student has the desire and drive to work, he can become a successful comedian. Is this true? Who knows. But one can ' t help but believe it when he sees the success of one of Helitzer ' s former students, Matt Wickline. Wickline is currently working as a staff writer for the Emmy award winning David Letterman Show. Who knows where other humor class graduates will end up? % Jim Krivacek lakes a try at humoring a drunken crowd to pass his unusuaJ final.

We begin with a foundation. Throughout periods of time, with the help of bright and creative people, not to mention added funds, the foundation grew into an outstanding university we can all be proud of. The future, always one step ahead of our view, keeps us striving for self betterment and the betterment for that which surrounds us. Keeping the future in mind, we look ahead to see what ' s in store for OU and its student population. February 19th marked an exciting day when the new 750,000 Computer Lab was christened in Copeland Hall. Thanks to this great effort in modern technology, students will be able to determine future capabilities with which they can work. Another popular advance for OU will be the increase in cable viewing audiences as soon as the quality of telecast needed is achieved. The university athletic department and Athens Video Works will beat sending tapes to Midwest Teleproduc- tion, said Glen Coble, OU director of Sports Media Relations. This will be an excellent relation for recruiting athletes and possible administration increases. Senior Rick Scarberry said, This is the ultimate, the night the OU Bas- ketball team ran over Ball State to capture the MAC championship on February 27. Although this isn ' t an unbelievable accomplishment, or something we can look forward to from year to year, the publicity and pride may help in recruiting good ath- letes to OU. It gives us a chance to boast about how terrific we really are. The E.W. Scripps Hall will be opening its doors sometime next fall quarter. The Stocker Engineering Center is also another reason for the vacancies in some campus buildings. 1 W— ' r 8 i t i 1 1 III 1 1  f Till â– â– â– 1 3iRI RH ( IH If II Jl 1 11 fin •, r  - - •- OU ' s advancements are full of pride and progress Lasher Hall, the Engineering Build- ing and the Industrial Technology Building will have new places to call home come next year. Another change for fall will be the closing of Wilson Hall, which will be used as a new genetics research lab. With the closing of one dorm comes the opening of another. Bryan Hall will reopen as an upper class, coed dorm in the fall. A different step toward progress at OU can be found in the greek sys- tem. Dean of Students Joel Rudy said, There is a resurgence of inter- est in the Greek Life. Chapter sizes have increased enormously and now make up 10 percent of the campus. A good greek system looks optomistic for OU and offers another interesting outlet for students wishing to enroll. Something new to look forward to will be the introduction of the seven meal plan. Students wishing to eat either one meal a day or three meals a day, twice a week, may do so. It ' s an advantage for people whose hec- tic schedules keep them out of the cafeteria during certain dining hours. The list for the future seems never ending. With one accomplishment following the next, OU has the op- portunity to express multiple feelings of pride with the constant change and progress, every student, faculty and staff member can look into the future with a great capacity of self esteem. We shall forever continue to repeat the pride filled phrase, OU, Oh Yeah! fj] Bryan I lull was closed for a vear of renova- tions, to be opened fall 1.985. Joseph P.

Come on, you just have to have a matching set of green sweats with the white paw prints going up the legs and arms, with Ohio University scrawled across the front in six inch le tters. I ' m sure, you really don ' t expect me to believe that you go to OU when you don ' t even have a pair of OU leg warmers with matching scarf, mittens and hat. People are suppose to know that you go to the Home of the MAC Champion Bobcats but, they won ' t when you don ' t have a t-shirt boasting our magnanimous victory? Please, you have an honest face but actions and clothes speak louder than words. You know a true student of OU by his attire. He walks with an air of su- periority as he sports his green and white nylon jacket with white block letters — OHIO sewn on the back. A top his crown sits the one and only green cap with the stately O adhered to the front like the crown jewel. These OU students know how to dress and better yet, they know how to wear their OU garb, with pride! How you dress is not the only form a student uses to show he goes to OU. There are OU playing cards for those late night poker games. Mugs and ashtrays adorned with the symbol of OU for the quiet Friday night party. Soap dishes for your bathroom, a sign of true loyalty. OU pencils and stationary to write those long awaited letters to home to tell them everything is good. And who can live without those OU car stickers to show the world where you go to school. I have saved the best for last, who can live without those adorable stuffed Bobcat and Bobkitten for the added room decoration. The list is vir- tually endless. You know there is probably not one student on this campus who does not have something with OU on it. or something green and white. The students of Ohio University are a special breed. You can see it in their faces and on their bodies because they are usually wearing something to tell people they go to the best school in the land. OU, Oh Yeah!! The paraphanalia of the Bobcats is a visible part of the OU pride. PARAPHANALIA PLACES College Bookstore Logan ' s Woolworth ' s Image Graphics Campus Sundry Hallmark Cards Heather A.

Lenegar Buck Night The Only Catch is that it Costs a Buck Fifty What do you do when you don ' t have any real homework and you don ' t have a lot of money to spend? Don ' t fear, buck night is here. |ust snatch up that last crinkled dollar bill, grab a friend and head for the theater. It ' s that easy. One such night fell upon my room- mate and I Fall Quarter. Buck night, that ' s it! we said in excitement as we grabbed our coats and ran uptown. We waited in a line longer than those ex- perienced at book rush only to find that when I slid my money under the glass arch that I didn ' t have enough. No way! This is buck night isn ' t it? I asked in a smart aleck tone. That ' s when the truth came out. The ticket teller, with all the patience expected from custom- er service etiquete, answered such detail, buck fifty. And with a curt look announced, next. There we were, Betsy and I, looking like two homeless people, dejected and extremely embarassed. We made our exit, shrinking away from the ticket booth hoping not to be noticed. We stood on the curb under the lighted marque confused. Why call it buck night when it costs a buck fifty? False advertising, I shouted. Determined to do something, we debated on running across the street and getting ice cream. But food wasn ' t what we needed. What we needed was one more dollar between the two of us to get in and see, Revenge of the Nerds. Almost resigning ourselves to f.T. Strotacovoski forks over additional money for a movie on Tuesday - night outing. munching and heading back to our room and call it a night, Kimbo showed up. Handing over a dollar as if donating to a needy cause, she saved us from an evening of unneeded extra calories. Once again it was to the back of the long line. It was like playing Mother May I, we did something wrong and we had to go back and start over. Better yet it was like playing a Parker Brothers game that ' s been around for years, except the rules had changed and not ev- erybody knew how to play. When we reached the ticket booth again I gave the ticket woman a snide smile and smacked down the bills, the correct amount this time. Betsy and I passed go, collected two tickets and entered the theater. The theater was cramped and the people behind us put on their own comic act. louder than the one on w â– ' JJAV DHL, screen. I couldn ' t put my feet on the seat in front of me like I usually do since someone was sitting there, nat- urally he was the tallest person in the theater and I got a neck ache after having to look around him for the entire two hours. Despite these small inconveniences the movie was fun, more fun than homework and a lot of cheaper than the regular nights of $3.75 a ticket. Besides, what should I have expected on buck night? The only thing I can think of is an extra fifty cents. [q7] MAS Kelley D. Lomax Pre-Med Zooioji Tracey A. Leonard Poll ; Marcl A. Leonhard Physical i tin n Heallh Janie S. Leonowich TefecommujiicaNons C. Renee Lessig Marketing Alan A. Lewis FIjslon Poiiti Looking back, one of the most memorable events was defeating Depau in overtime. One of my first memories of OU is walking across the College Green with my female companion on pro- spective student weekend. I was a sen- ior in high school. She was an OU freshman. When we walked to the spot where five paths meet in a point, she stopped walking. You know they say if you ever meet a girl on this spot, you get to kiss her, she smiled while bouncing on her toes. It was a corny line, but it worked. I kissed her and thought, This is going to be a great place to go to school. Now four years later, the female companion is either engaged, married or living with someone and I am just a little more cynical. The four years I have been calling Athens home have been the most tumultous in my life. Like most every- one else I talk to, I too, am not the same person I was four years ago. Some talk about the loss of inno- cence as a signpost of growing up. But they always talk about the loss of sex- ual innocence. However, there is the loss of mind and soul innocence. Four years ago, my mind was enveloped in a Norman Rockwell view of the world. The most serious problem I had to worry about was whether or not Mary Lou was go- ing to the prom with me. I was obliv- ious to the happenings outside my rural commmunity. I lost my mind innocence my fresh- man year when David Beals told my political science class, We do not live in a democracy. I was shat- Looking back on experiences bring lasting impressions and attitudes. tered. It was like someone said, Yes Virginia, there is NO Santa Claus. I recovered from my shock and learned the endless theories of C. Wright Mill ' s power elite. The homogeneous stream of class- es flew by. I can only remember the few good and bad classes. The rest are lost in by subconsciousness. But it doesn ' t matter if one can not remember a philosophy professor from fall quarter or that I could not tell you what happened in Great Britain in 1923. However, I did learn. I learned how to open my mind to new ideas, how to accept new people despite race or creed and how to discover myself. By discovering myself, I mean I questioned my earlier values and beliefs. It is then that I lost my soul innocence. I found myself doing things I had never dreamed about — both good and bad. I developed new and hope- fully better values and I also kept some from my childhood. My memories of my four years at OU may be similar to almost every other senior. I ' ll remember the three Court Street fires that scarred the Athens skyline. And the night the OU bas- ketball program showed it was a real powerhouse by defeating DePaul in overtime. And, of course, the fun and fellowship spent in the uptown bars. I also remember the lasting friend- ships I made at my two homes dur- ing my college career — my fraternity. Phi Gamma Delta, and The Post. But most of all I ' ll remember how Athens changed my character and my way of thinking. This is what I ' ll never forget.

Students in OU ' s 10 colleges partici- pate in a diverse number and variety of internships throughout the nation. From legal research to interior de- sign, internships enable students to take a peek at professional life, yet re- main a carefree college student. Charles Pinyan, editor of the Post, in- terned with McGraw-Hill World News in Paris. I learned a lot about different ways of applying journalism skills. he said. The journalism training in the classroom is helpful, but you don ' t know what it ' s really like until you do it. Walter Tiger Thiel, jr., a Recreation Wilderness Skills major re- ceived intern credit by working at Camp Akiba in the Poconos. Another person and I were in charge of the entire organization of programming. he said. Within two yea rs camper involvement grew from 15% to 100%. Internships in Political Science are offered during the summer and throughout the school year. Dr. Edward Baum, associate professor of political science is in charge of the program. In the program, students can receive five to fifteen hours of credit by working in local offices 12-40 hours a week. The internships provide students with first-hand experience in a public office or agency, Baum said. They get a feel as to whether they want to go in to that type of work on a permanent basis. Bob Kalinsky. a Communications ma- jor interning with Mayor Ed Beckett, decided to participate in the program for something different winter quarter. I ' m learning how a city operates first-hand, not from a textbook, he said. I had a free quarter before I graduated so I decided to work for the mayor. Other local interns include students working for the university, as well as Education and Hearing and Speech major student teaching for a quarter at local Athens City Schools. Some colleges even require its majors to obtain an internship be- fore graduation. Christina Sidoti, and interior de- sign major, interned with the Red Brick Store, Inc. In Brecksville last summer. She was required to have the internship, but also wanted a summer job in her field. Being able to use my skills from here (OU) and applying them to my job in Brecksville was really enjoy- able, Sidoti said. Meeting the cus- tomers made me feel like a professional — not a student. Whether you ' re in Paris or even Poconos. internships provide stu- dents with valuable experience and can decide the future of students undecided about their career goals. GO Ways to get experience. Internships By Cindy Code By Kimbo Nickolai Drinking Games Students turn spare time into non-academic creativity Hi Bob! Bullshit. Lets Vroom, Zoom, Schwartz, Pfigliano and Buzz Up the river down the river. Thumper, Fuzzy Duck, Cardinal Puff, Red and Black all Sink the sub with Mexican dice and Quarters, then Chug-a-Iug and Passout. If you recognize any of the words in the previous sentences you ' ve probably been involved in a college party. After class work was done students directed their innovation and creativity toward get-togethers that at times focused on a certain drinking game. After all, isn ' t it a bad sign when you drink just to feel good? The major ingredient to any of these games, obviously, was beer. The quan- tity used varied. A keg might be re- quired for a large group gathered for an evening of Hi Bob! This game takes place while watching The Bob Newhart Show. A chug is taken when- ever someone on the show says Bob and the beer is finished whenever they say Hi Bob. The quantity of beer could even be as small as a 12-pak when two or three friends get together for a fast paced game of Buzz. This is where certain numbers are chosen to be replaced by the word buzz as numbers are recited, beginning with number 1. The most popular of drinking games on campus was the infamous Quarters. At its simplest level, Quarters involves a group of people taking turns trying to bounce a regular quarter off the table top and into a small glass of beer. And if you are a good shot, you get to direct the glass to someone else for drinking purposes. The people who are experts at this game have further refined it to add such rules as: 1) no one can say anyone else ' s name, 2) no pointing is allowed, 3) no form of the verb to drink may be mentioned, 4) you must refill the glass after drinking and before setting it down, and 5) on your throw, one quarter can ' t go off the table. If one of these rules is broken, the punishment of drinking a beer is slight but can take its toll on any player that isn ' t being cautious. These are just a few of the games that students participated in during their free time. Burp, see you later Bob. An afternoon of Quarters is be- ing played by this group at the Frontier Room. Scott Sanford is taking a chance while Mike Petroff is taking his penalty for missing. John Gaynor and Greg Herman are enjoying a little breather. Julie E. Morton Mum. Mislnn Paul E.

How many pages do we have for to- morrow? This doesn ' t fit. Get the quote book. Can my story be ' late ' ? Arrgh! For nearly 75 years, these and many other phrases have echoed throughout the offices of The Post . Ohio Universi- ty ' s daily, independent student newspa- per with a circulation of 12,000. Fi- nanced by un iversity funds and advertising, The Post has been devoted to giving the university community complete coverage of Athens and OU, and providing students with the Oppor- tunity to apply the skills they have learned in the classroom. I meant to become a journalist, and I felt The Post would give me the experience I would be missing by tak- ing plain journalism classes, said sen- ior Marty Minor, who was managing editor and After Hours columnist for the newspaper in 1984- ' 85. The newspaper also provides experience for photographers, graphic artists, and advertising and business students. When all members of the staff work together, the paper can realize its full potential, said Charlie Pinyan, The Post ' s editor. The better the paper is, the better CJraphics editor, Lena Niro carefully sets trie copy for The Post ' s most controversial page the Editor ' s page. the staff feels about it. he said. And the better the staff feels about the pa- per, the better it becomes. The Post will celebrate their 75th an- niversary in 1986. The Post ' s prototype, The Green and White, was issued vol. 1, issue 1 in De- cember of 1919. In January of 1920. vol- ume 2 was issued. Over their years at the newspaper, staff members have become good friends. The quote book is a collection of profound and interesting statements the staff members have made and by which are fondly remembered. A stepping stone toward internships and jobs, The Post has become an insti- tution within the university. Always controversial and seldom dull, it has enriched the campus community for a long time. As it modernizes, students can look forward to even more im- proved coverage by the paper that is First on the beat, first on the street, daily. nj] The Post 75th Anniversary Lorrie J Rowe Michael P Rowland Elizabeth A Roy Robyn D Rubel David S.

Shaffer interpersonal Communication Ahed Al Shakaa There was a time when many of the women in college were there to meet a husband. The times have changed. In this age of equal rights Ohio Uni- versity students are more serious about their educations. Social life and mate finding has taken a back seat to educa- tion for many college students. Yet in this new age of conservatism many students are staying with the same companion for long periods of time. This is not to say that everyone is getting married. They ' re not. Or at least not immediately after graduation. Students are waiting to get their own lives together before they bring someone else into it — forever. Lots of happy couples meet here at OU. just like they always have and probably always will. With the com- mon interest of OU, couples have a base before they start. Some students try to keep a long-dis- tance relationship going while staying at OU. This is more difficult. Despite huge phone bills and waiting anxiously for the mailman, many students find it difficult to relate the happenings in Athens to anywhere else in the world. Students in long distance relationships tend to think about marriage more. So in this new age of Ronald Reagan and The Young Republican Club, one night stands are just about as out as wearing polyester and disco. Students are staying with the same partners.

Former students form Ohio University, that ' s who! Mike Schmidt, now making $2,130, 000 a year according to Sports frustrat- ed, graduated with a degree in Busi- ness Administration in 1971. When he was at O.U. he was not on any kind of scholarship, according to Bob Wren, the baseball coach, but he was the Philadelphia Phillies 2 pick. In 1981, Mike was honored with the O.U. Med- al of Merit for extraordinary achieve- ment in Pro Athletics. A 1960 graduate also made it big in the world, Betty Thomas. She is now Lucille Bates in the successful Hill Street Blues series. She also recieved a Medal of Merit in 1983 from O.U. but was unable to recieve it personally because of show taping conflicts. Paul J. Gapp and architecture Critic for the Chicago Tribune, graduated form O.U. in 1950. Since then he has recieved many honors and awards; such as the prestigeous Pultizer Prize in 1979. He also was awarded with the O.U. alumni Medal of Merit in 1980. He has returned to his alma mater once to help dedicate Lasher Hall. The President of CBS News, Van Gordon Sauter, also graduated from O.U. in 1957 form the school of Journalism. In 1981 he was given the O.U. alumni Medal Merit for Out- standing Achievement in the communi- cation field. He has returned to O.U. To speak at the 1983 graduation cere- mony. Sammy Kaye, now a successful or- chestra leader graduated from the OU Alumni Excellence is awarded School of Enginerring in 1932. He has since returned to O.U. for the 150th anniversary parade in which he was the grand marshall. He has also given a scholarship in his name to the school of Music for a worthy student. One can see that many fam- ous people have graduated from O.U., and who knows when perhaps the next maybe from the class of 1985. g] Wanda J Thompson PoJiii â– Brooke M.

Alcohol is mandatory for any road trip, especially when you go to Miami. It ' s hard to deal with all those prepies. Our road trip is one that should go down in OU history! It ' s a memory neither one of us will ever forget. It happened one spring weekend: what a beautiful weekend it turned out to be. The entire men ' s lacrosse team and I packed our equipment and stuffed our coolers. Being one of the drivers, I laid back in my ' 84 Celica and took it easy, for I knew it would be a long weekend. Earlham, Indiana was the first stop of the weekend. The OU lacrosse team kicked their butts! Unfortunately Earlham is a dry school, no drinking allowed. So we packed up our beers and set out to kill Miami. We arrived in Oxford late that night, just in time to pack the bars. We took over one bar at a time and showed the Miamites how to have a good time. The night ended with the entire mens la- crosse team doing the Hokey Pokey. After closing down the bar we head- ed for our overnight accomodations. Mike and I decided to camp at Houston Woods. We put up the pup tent and crashed. When we awoke the next morning, the light of day revealed the most awkward looking tent. The Miami game started at 1p.m., with hangovers and all. The game was long but we killed them, as usual. It was a long journey home. One of the last road trips of our college career turned out to be one of the best! [%] Weekends ore made for Michelob ' and roadtrips for this rowdy crew.

Fucal Wagner— Zumkehr — 25 1 I N D X Amidst the frequent tragic fires of uptown, such as the Athens Ho- tel fire on January 14, 1985, where 49 Ohio University students lost their homes, one might wonder why a busi- ness would ever stay in Athens. The main purpose of any business is to make profits, but they also serve as a form of convenience for consumers. Businesses like Greyhound Bus Lines are in Athens to help Ohio Univ. stu- dents find ways to go home. While bars such as The Greenery and Pawpurr ' s literally serve their customers. Other businesses, such as Woolworth ' s, provide O.U. students with the Athens residents with any- thing from hot pretzels to t-shirts. Most businesses are proud of O.U. and have no plans of moving out of Athens. Davia Ferrel, an employee speaking in behalf of the owner of The Lollipop, claims there is little vandal- ism or destruction of their business, ex- cept for the fear of fires. Some businesses are trying to improve uptown by remodeling. The Hallmark store just finished the expan- sion of their store and now offers many new products; while Revco is just be- ginning to change by moving across the street into the building that used to contain Bartleys.

Court Street 18 Varieties Colophon — 267 The spirit of Athens never ieaves any Bobcat after they graduate from OU. These two alumni along with 8000 others, returned for the largest Home- coming turn-out ever. 268 — Closing 1 LL MB A football game never begins or ends without the Marching 110 addressing the crowd. Here the flags of the schools in the MAC are paruded as the band takes the field. With the year waning to an end, the bunks of the ! locking get more of a workout by sunbuthers than the cJussrooms or books. The pride is alive in Athens by Kathleen D. Wallick As the academic year draws to a close and the once popu- lated greens find silence from the year ' s chatter, everyone will look back on the time spent here and reminisce. We felt it from the day we moved in and trekked the hills and red brick paths across the campus and made friends with people from across the U.S. and from other countries around the world. We saw it when we focused on Cutler Hall, our National Historic Landmark to the groundbreaking of the multi-million dollar facility for the school of journalism. But most of all we heard it when 8,000 cheering alumni, the largest gathering in our history, returned for Homecoming and to the cheers shouted in the convocation center for the men ' s basketball team on to the road to the MAC Championship title and the NCAA tournaments. The pride of OU is very much alive in Athens and engraved in our hearts. It doesn ' t matter if you ' ve been here a year or more than four years, the feeling won ' t fade. As it was over 180 years ago and it is today, we ' ll feel that special link with Ohio University from todav on for the rest of our lives! m Even though the downtown, affectionately called uptown , loses a section every year to fire— the pride of OU never dampens. Winding up the year at Spring quarters ' bash, Springfest, Mitch Purst shares his sun ana fun with the help of some cool Hawaiian Punch. OU, Oh Yeah. ' — 269 .
