Texas Tech University - La Ventana Yearbook

“I After our second year to edit the La Vcn- tana, some things seemed much easier. But there were still several rough edges that many people helped us smooth out. Throughout the year, many things, both good and bad, happened during the produc- tion of the La Ventana. However, the best pan was working with you, our staff and all the people here at Tech. Without sounding like Academy Awards, there are many people we would like to thank. First, our outstanding staff, who without their dedication and hard work to the finish, you would not be reading this La Ventana. Many times we griped at them and stayed on your backs, but it paid off. They were tre- mendous and we are extremely proud of each and everyone of them. Also, the Student Pub- lications office staff, Pam, Barbara, Kay and Richard Lytle, all worked with us and were a great help in prcxiucing the finished product. A very special and heartfelt thanks goes to Darrel and the photography staff. Without their hard work and late hours we couldn ' t have done it. We thank them very much. Thanks go to Trac7 and Ronny for their extra hours in helping with two of our largest deadlines. Our families were invaluable. Their under- standing and support helped us through many hard times. Without their understand- ing of our late dinners and short tempers we could not have made it through the year. Included in our friends is the advertising staff. Without their bad jokes and sense of humor, our days would have been a lot longer. Special note to Malcolm Bordelon and Bob Fuchs for their patience when we bit off their heads as they came in the office to visit. A special note to Jean Finley whose guid- ance and faith in us never waivered. We appreciated her help and she was sorely missed by all of us. It has been a long hard year, but a very worthwhile one. It is our baby and we present it to you — the students — with loving care. f^^*-^ *^ & rt Staff La Ventana Co-editors Elizabeth Edwin Beverly Jones Magazine Editors Tina Driessner Melody Donges Elizabeth Thurman Sandy Mitchell Ronny Hutchinson Gigi McKinney Sabrina Houser Tracy Brown Staff Mark Brown Kristie Kerbow Kane Kidd Copywriters Donnay Adair Tracy Brown Bobby Pickett Ann Reeves Jody Sneed Jeff Tinnell Director of Student Publications Richard Lytle Director of Photography Darrel Thomas Photographers Dave Dmytriw Richard Halim Mark Hobgood Jerry Raign Steve Rowel 1 Contributing Photographers Ma.\ Faulkner Ron Jenkins Mike Perez Mark Rogers Business Affairs Jean Finley Barbara Boatwright Pam Knerr Kay Perkins Advertising Kristie Krahn Jan Parsons Art Editors Geoff Hager Carol Houk f Acknowledgements Lubbock Area Merchants Jerry Clark Taylor Publishing Co.
