Yor ' bobk Yourbook AVILA Pronounced It (yoo) Avila Anthem. vila in ’86 — You were the history makers. You welcomed a new college president, while budgeting the tuition increase and the purchase of your first While Bill Cosby and Whoopi Goldberg kept you glued to the screen, you scooped up live comedy at the Funny Bone and Stanford Sons. The list of movie sequels grew longer than the cafeteria line with Psycho III, Poltergeist II, and Rocky IV. New flicks also caught your eyes as Tom Cruise reached for the Top Gun, Ferris Bueller took a Day Off, and Rodney Dangerfield went Back to School to earn a little respect. As Avila soccer players sported stud earrings and a 4th ranked position in the national poll, girls’ volleyball demanded the best with mother-to-be Coach Ice at the helm, and the basketball team warmed up for sizzling seasons. Fashions were bold and bright as you consumed hoards of AppleBee’s chicken wings and Mickey D’s french fries. It didn’t matter if you were a resident, commuter, full-timer, or part-timer, you made your impression on Avila . . . and on 1987. 7

It’s pronounced “Stoodant Lif” Sounds of Life The parking lot hummed with engines and horns as students arrived at Avila. The unraveling of receipts was heard down the corridor of Blasco, as well as the chirping of the switchboard phone. Admissions murmured with the rhythmic pitter-patter of typewriters. The tunnels echoed with thunderous voices. Shuffling feet rushed through O’Rielly as students hurried to class. Pencils scratched across paper in classrooms as teachers lectured. The library resounded with faint giggles and whispers. The piano sang in the McKeon room during the noon recitals. Beyond the grove lies the soccer field and gymnasium, which clamored with roaring Avila fans, who cheered the team to victory. Stereos blared from the residence halls as students enjoy the afternoon. Montessori children filled the playground with laughter and play. Whoosh! went the revolving doors of Marian Centre. Pots and pans clanged in the kitchen. The snack bar vibrated with the sound of an eight ball which sank into a corner pocket, and the ping-pong ball bounced mer- rily across the tennis table. The T.V. in the Alumni Lounge amplified soap operas. Applause filled Goppert as the audience enjoyed another tremendous production. The chapel chimed with tranquility as the evening closed in on Avila. It’s pronounced “Avila.” 8
