Orientation is the official first taste of college life. It introduces incoming stu- dents to one another, the philosophy and policies of the college, and its environment. Gullible students are en- couraged to participate in a variety of per tricks (ice breakers) designed to stimulate student interaction, and test their sense of humor and embarrass- ment. These tricks become learned behavior, and become a part of their college life. Students are given hand- books and handouts stating the in- stitution ' s purpose and operating pro- cedures. These philosophies and policies fend to seem irrelevant at the moment, becouse students are pre- occupied trying to formulate their own purpose and method of operation. Campus tours ore given by currently enrolled students who serve as Ori- entation Leaders. These leaders usu- ally have a vogue idea of where they are going — maps ore used. P Above: Ken Dudzik, do an about face and get rhar carper back in the hall! Right: New Stu- dents have to go through a lot in order to register for classes! Just one of the get- acquainted ' ' activities during orientation Candis Donell Registration is commonly referred to os the rat race. This can be the most frustrating and ironically the most re- memberable part of college. An im- age of a human ping pong ball in a maze co mes to mind. The ultimate in strategic planning and memory recall Is required to success- fully accomplish move-in. The objec- tive of move-in is to transport all be- longings from home to school In one trip, and load the elevator with as much as you possibly can and still have room for yourself. There are two key thoughts to keep in mind when moving in. First, save your energy for arranging your room; avoid using stairs and carrying heavy boxes — use elevators and two wheelers. Sec- ond, remember to pack everything; especially everyday necessities. Sure, you packed the both towels . . . but where ' s the soap? — Patrick Wood and Mary Pat Veerkamp I Candis Donell 10 Orientation Condls Donell Left: Renee Mozeitis of the Student Ori- entation Stoff leads o group of new students in o victory celebration during orlentotion activities.

You soy, if I hove o question — raise my hand. And you ' ll be more thon hoppy to expand. You ' re giving us knowledge and that ' s a good gift. I appreciate the way you chollenge me to grow, the way you stimulate my mind, and how you lend me a helping hand when I ' m failin ' behind. Yeah teach.

I ended homecoming weekend by ploying flog football this after- noon Residence Hall Association sponsored a game between Corondelet and Ridgway. I don ' t know who won — we kind of forgot to keep score. It was a game my body will long remem- ber! SATURDAY: I went to the soccer gome of 2 o ' clock and watched the guys beat Lindenwood. Then I proceeded to Mabee Fieldhouse to see the Volleyball team win marches against William Jewell ond Horris-Stowe. I got bock to my room to shower ond dress by 7:30 just in rime for my dote ond I to leave for dinner. We went to this really elegant restaurant before the homecoming dance. Remem- bering proper table etiquette was difficult, we hod become so ac- custom to eoting with our hands of McDonald ' s ond Pizza Hut (the not so elegont restaurants). We arrived ot the dance o little after 9:30 pm. It was held ot Em- bassy Suites on the Plozo. When we walked in the joint was jump- ing. The donee was put on by Student Union Board. With the theme being Until the Clock Strikes Twelve, the decorations consisted of o cosfle ond silver clouds ond stars with o lit replico of Big Ben hanging from the ceiling. Director of Student Development, Gory Morgan, wos our D.J., ploy- ing tunes from the 40 ' s to the 60 ' s. We donced ourselves ragged. FRIDAY: A group of us got togeth- er ond went to see the home- coming production Solt Water Moon . It wos about on 18 year old guy, Jocob Mercier who re- turns to his native home just in rime to woo his former love, Mory Snow, who is about to marry. THURSDAY: I went to the bon-fire that RHA sponsored behind Mabee Fieldhouse. There were a lot of students there, both resi- dents and commuters. It reminded me of o Peanuts cartoon where Charlie Brown and the gong were comping out, gathered around the fire roosting marshmallows, re- flecting on life and enjoying their contentment. — Patrick Wood Jacob Mercier (Tom DeDoker) enlightens Mory Snow (Francesco Poscolini) on the structure of the constellations os she looks on with interest.

I enjoy my newly found independence. I hove the chance to moke my own de- cisions. However, along with this independ- ence comes certain responsibilities. For in- stance, I hove learned the importance of keeping o doily schedule and setting pri- orities (I never thought I would ever hear myself soy that). I hove learned to balance my checkbook — 1 kid you not; and I now use a measuring cup when calculating the amount of soop to use in the washer. I am developing an appreciation for the finer joys of life . . . you know, study breaks, Avila food, parties, gomes, and friends. I enjoy study breaks so much that I take them before and after studying. My friends and I are big on gomes, sometimes college seems like a second childhood. Ve enjoy getting together and acting goofy; we have water fights, play soccer in the hallway, play twister (yeah it ' s still around), or boogie to tunes in our rooms . . . the funny thing is I don ' t know why! I guess you could say its our way of relaxing . . . ”yeoh that ' s the ticket! What I enjoy the most about this new life are the friend- ships I have made. I don ' t know . . . it ' s just something special knowing that you have a friend. — Robert Scoles and Patrick Wood Liz Von Nore Oh embraceable you! Rick Trumon ond Kassie Dougherfy exchange worm expressions of love — isn’t that special!?! 16 Residence Life R.A.ing : WHAT IT IS Delow RA ' s Deb Amos and Mark Hoffman shore o little staff support Bottom The 1987-88 Residence Hall Staff left to right Shoron O ' Reilly, Jonet Aguirre, Micki Show, Mark Hoffman, Beth Moren, Mory Godlew- ski, Darrin Nooh, ond Deb Amos The residence halls are facilitated by a staff of six student R.A. ' s (Resident Assistants) and two staff members, Beth Moren, Director of Residence Life, and Mary Godlewski, Ass’t. Director of Residence Life and Marian Centre Manager. Below right Seriously, I never ployed o gome of pool in my life, ' ’ cloims Jonet Aguirre as she challenges Tino Caldwell But little do we realize — how much time and energy goes into the job of an R.A.. The R.A.’s are responsible for programming, are a liaison between faculty and administration, enforce residence hall policies, provide safety and security, have general admin- istrative task, and build community, said Beth Moren. I look for someone who ' s o good tole model, effective leader . . . someone who wonts to leorn and is interested in continuing that process . . . someone who genuinel y cares about others . . . a hard worker . . . someone who is enthusiastic,” added Beth. When asked What it is like being an R A.?”, Mark Hoffman, a first year R.A. commented by saying, We do a lot of things to show we really care. We ore more of a friend than an authority.” It challenges me — I have to schedule my stuff, with R.A. stuff. It shows me I can cope with responsibility, and still come out on top!” added Janet Aguirre, also a first year R.A. It’s tough. There are times when you just wont to run to your room, ond close your door; but you can ' t. You want to be a regular student; but you can ' t. It ' s a challenge — you learn a lor about yourself when the work piles up . . . it ' s a growing experience,” concluded Deb Amos, o third semester R.A.. — Patrick Wood Condls Donell Mark Rice CARONDELET Below The Residents of Corondelet Condominiums — L-R, from row: Rossel Luron, Gory Myers, Jeff Kuhns.Bob O ' Reilly, 2nd row: Scoff Anderson, Kaushik Bhoduri.Jon Pork, Tony Parsons, Ron Brown, Greg Morfinez, bock row: Shannon Ennis, Duane Grieve, Dorrin Noah.

The halls ore a home. Residence Life is on extension of the classroom. It is o learning center — together the students create o community where they shore responsibility for ond take the ownership in what occurs wirhin rhor community, commented Beth Maren, Director of Residence Life. As a member of this family one quickly leorns whot it is like to be o victim of another sibling ' s practical joke. We tied the 5th floor door knobs together and Soron-wropped their toiler seats claimed sophomore Janet Aguirre.

COLLEGE YEARS We shored our books, We shored our notes, We swopped our sweorers, and our coots. You rubbed my bock I scratched yours. You were the one who Always found something For us to do whenever We were bored We ' d go to a movie, Or for o cruise in Your cor. On occasion We ' d stop for an evening Sncck at the local grill And bor. You were so understanding Thor night I come home Sloshed You even pur My dirty laundry to wash Although we would sometimes Disagree, our differences of Opinion never changed my feelings Towards you, nor your feelings Towards me. We were rhere for each other. We would offer our philosophies Of life, whenever one of us needed Advice. We shored both smiles and tears.

Mike Zohorchok, Chaplain and Director of Compus Ministry. Fr Mike, along with his student staff of thir- teen, design and organize programs and ac- tivities that give witness to basic religious val- ues and help build community. We hove sponsored the Christmas Mass, and city wide programs — where people donate their rime ond talents to help renovate homes , such os Christmas in October, and the Mercy Housing Project, said Chris Oleson, junior His- tory Major. Compus Ministry hos helped me to develop leadership skills . . . such os . . . organiza- tion. I hove also gained o good knowledge of people, commented Julie Meissen, Sophomore We try to spread the good news of Christ throughout the campus. For some college students, social life comes first, ond God comes lost — it’s not healthy Religion mokes us more holistic ond well- rounded ... it mokes you aware of your- self, added Julie. — Patrick Wood Dr. Lorry Kromer offers Maureen Word rhe Blood of Christ. Lay ministry is another form of ministry which enables people to take on active port in rhe cel- ebration of the Eucharist. Condis Donell Rick Truman, Carol Drown, and Tim Mercer plan lighting strategies for an up coming production David Steinberg, director of Romeo ond Juliet, rokes time to relax wirh his cost during o brief intermission 24 Theatre Porrich Wood Patrick Wood Gory Mitchell ages himself os he purs on the finishing fouches for his character Sir Monrogue in Romeo and Juliet Theatre Elements The lobby is full of murmuring voices, ond the rustling of programs People ore gradually being ushered to their seats. The theatre is full. The lights fade to block. The audience reclines backwards into their seats, preparing for the two hours traffic which they are about to witness on stage. But, there are many elements and phases of a theatre production that must be developed before a play is presented to the public. The actors must rehearse, lights and sound must be designed ond coordinated, and scenery and costumes must be constructed After auditions, the cast is selected and the rehearsal process begins The director conducts rehearsals usually for o periods of five weeks(fhis may vary depending on the director and the time factor). During this five week period the director brings oil the theatre elements to- gether The director assists the cast with memorizing lines and stage movements, the analyzing of the script, its characters and their relationships to one another. While the director and actors are busy with their stage work, the set and costumes are being constructed, and lights and sound are being designed. These elements are all designed with a particular theme in mind, relating to the director ' s interpretation of the playwright ' s words. One of the biggest challenges for me as light designer for Romeo and Juliet, was deciding how to do the lights . . . we considered realistic and non-realistic. We decided on non-realistic. The non-realistic lighting helped us sat- urate things to be a little bit darker — helping us with creating different intensities of emotions and moods, said Mark Sutherland, junior, speech theatre major. At the beginning of the final week of rehearsals a tech- nical rehearsal is held which brings all the elements together. The director incorporates the actors with lights, sound, make-up, costumes, and scenery. Lights and sound are coordinated to correspond with line cues from the script, „ and the costumes ond make-up are used by the actor; to enhance their characters. All of these el- ements come together to create a realistic and en- tertaining drama. — Patrick Wood HANDS-ON LEARNING Experiential learning compliments book knowledge. It coordinates theory with practice. Students hove the opportunity to apply what they learn in theory , com- mented Sr Dorboro Moore, Chair- person, Deportment of Nursing. Avila tries to provide its students with as much experienriol learning os possible. Hands-on learning con be gained through a variety of curricular and co-curriculor activi- ties. Experiences such os nursing clinicols, student reaching prac- ricums, television production class, newspaper, yearbook, public re- lations internships, and working in the Child Core Center provide stu- dents with realistic job training I appreciate the learning expe- rience and honds-on training I get from working in day care I es- pecially enjoy the interaction I have with the children. I enjoy learning about how children three to six (years old) act — their feel- ings and abilities. Most of oil I en- joy the involvement — having the feeling of being needed, said Carmen Conzonere, senior ele- mentary education major Senior nursing major, Penny New- man shored her comments on her clinical rotations. You ore actually doing things instead of reading about it — you also get the feel- ing of what the hospital is really like. Students work with real cli- ents from o variety of different racial and economic backgrounds of o variety of different agencies”, added Sr. Dorboro Moore . T V. production has given me a tech- nical understanding of the equip- ment that many companies want you to hove before coming on the job, replied Angela Holder, se- nior communication major. — Pat- rick Wood You ore actually doing things instead of reading about it ... — Penny Newman Angelo Holder and Jeff Kraus check rheir equipment before roping o commercial for T V production class.

The group consisted of Geri Sudfelgre, Pat- ty Kampeter, Jock Pork, Shannon Ennis, Patrick Wood, Beth Moren, ond Julie Kovich. The seven drove eighteen hours from Kansas City, Missouri to Horlon, Ken- tucky. Horlon is o small mining county located in the Southeastern part of the state. It has o population of 75,000, most of the people there used to moke their living working in the mines, until mining companies began to close and sell their mines in order to break the strength of the local unions. With many of the mines closed, much of the population has been left un- employed They hove no means of support. Families hove been left to live a life of poverty and strife The Servite Sisters ore missionaries who organize relief for the needy families of Harlan. They ore o source of food, clothing, coal, small mon- etary loons, education, ond religious instructions. Throughout the year volunteers (like the group from Avila) visit Horlon, Kentucky ond assist the sisters ond the community in any way they con. We orgonized and stored food and garments, distributed food, mingled with the people, participated in a ' workday, tutored in the school, and climbed mountains, commented Jack Park, Junior Business Major I think Avila should sponsor more v trips like this one . . so the other I students con hove the chonce to ex- I perience this — and appreciate the I food, school, and dorm rooms, said Shannon Ennis, Senior Chemistry Ma- I jor.

Not only does she ploy the celto os a hobby, but also ploys with the Medical Arts Symphony at the University of Kansas Medical School. Linda is well suited for this group because she has played professionally with the Little Rock Symphony and also in Pennsylvania.

These trivial matters are important to Avila and could nor be put aside, for they are the tradition which supported our college. Avila started as the College of Sr. Teresa, the first private women ' s college in Kansas City, in 1916. In 1940 Avila became a four year college, and in 1946 was accredited by the North Central Asso- ciation. In April of 1961, 48 acres of land were pur- chased for the construction of new facilities. Then on No- vember, 21, 1963, the col- lege was renamed Avila — after our patron, 5t. Teresa of Avila. It wasn ' t until 1969 that Avila became a co- educational institution. Each building was named for a special reason. For exam- ple: O ' Rielly Hall — Marga- ret ORielly was the first graduate of 5t. Teresa ' s. Marian Centre — Named af- ter the Blessed Virgin. Carondelet Hall — Named after the Society of Sr. Jo- seph of Carondelet — the founders of Avila College. The official college seal was designed by Mary Finney Black, a 1935 graduate of Avila College. The seal reads Deo odjuvante, non fimendum. -”God helping, fear not. — Todd Perkins 48 5ophomores Maureen Ward ■ l � •i ssi EbSSssw m D if f vX MV! rv | n J , .

Presidential hopeful Gary Hart made headlines but not because of his campaign. His affair with Donna Rice was the news in the tabloids and on talk shows. Hart dropped out of the race following the initial dis- closure about the affair — bur reentered saying, Let the American people decide! He hoped they would make the right decision based on the facts of his campaign — nor his indiscretion. Another major scandal often discussed was the Jim and Tammy Bakker controversy. Both the Bakers and the PTL Club lost millions of dollars due to the adverse publicity surrounding Jim Bakker ' s affair with church secretary Jessica Hahn. Fcreifin Affairs Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev was always in the news in 1987 — 88. Gorbachev was actively win- ning over the American people with his charm and his efforts towards goodwill between the American and the Soviet people. His visit to Washington D C. was the first visit by a Soviet leader to the United Stares since 1973. However, while the signing of a treaty to eliminate medium range nuclear missiles was greeted with optimism by the American public, polls taken by Time and Newsweek indicated that the majority of the American people still do nor trust the Soviets. Tensions in the Persian Gulf ran high. A U.S. owned supertanker was hit by an Iranian missile. Then twenty-four hours later a missile also fired by Iron struck a U.S. flagged tanker in the Persian Gulf. Both the incidents occurred in the territorial waters of Kuwait. Condis Donell The news in 1987 — 88 was always new, somerimes exciting — bur never unnoriced! 74 Mini-Mag Economic Matters Wall Street was up and down in 1987 — 88. Everyone was nervous with the unsteady stock markers and the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropping so rapidly. Major exchanges scheduled early closings several days in a row in order to curb the enormous volume building up since the October 19rh plunge when the stocks lost more than $500 billion in value and the Dow plummeted 508 points. Copyright 1987 Washington Post Writers Group, reprinted with permission Copyright 1987 Washington Post Writers Group, reprinted with permission Foreign Affairs The Iron-Contro hearings were in the news for months in 1987. Who was ot foult? Did we ever really find our? Many people were questioned in on ottempt to find out who knew about the trading of arms to Iron.

Mini-Mag 75 SPCCTS rcctball The Notional Football League Player ' s Association ended its 24 day strike in 1987 by sending its members back to work, and filing an anti-trust suit against the Notional Football League. They hoped the low suit would accomplish what the players union could not, or either the negotiating table or the picket lines. 1987 was a disappointing year for the Kansas City Chiefs. They maintained their sol- idarity as a team throughout the strike but back on the field they simply couldn ' t get it together. An- other Missouri teom wos in the news in 1987. The St. Louis Cardinals were on the move — they ' ve gone to Arizona — to stay. And whot o gome!

Showcase Theatre be- came an expected event with Rick Truman as the Church Lady , while al- so doing song and dance numbers. The depart- ment also worked on pro- moting the campus shows. Students were re- minded that they re- ceived a complimentary ticket to every show thus the turn our was better. The theatre took on a new oir os more filled the seats for opening nights in ' 88 . LIso Shore Avila Intramurals Mork Rice A major part of campus life or Avila was the Intramural program. Produced by two srudenr assistants, Steve Foerstel and Erin Gibbons, many tournaments and two trips were scheduled during the year. Championship T-shirts were given to teams in co-ed volleyball, softball and basketball to name a few. Other sports included tennis, bowling, women ' s indoor soccer and men ' s volleyball. The traditional ski and spring break trips were successful as always. The ski trip took 10 students to the Summit in Colorado for some great skiing over Christmas break. Spring break couldn ' t get any better than if was as a bus load of students spent a week basking in the sun at South Padre Island. And who said college life was tough? It was a great year for Intramurals with sports, trips, and recreation for everyone! Candis Donell Top Left: Steve Foerstel watches the softball after a hit as Sharon O ' Reilly looks on.

AVILA ANTHEM Mark Rice Yearbook — for most people it brings to mind the end of the school year, a book with pictures of friends, activities, sports . . . Bur for a few hardworking individuals it means much more. For the 1987-88 An- them Staff it means a hundred rolls of film, late hours in the dark- room, drawing and redrawing layouts, writing and rewriting copy, cropping pictures and many hours on the computers. It was cre- ativity, frustration and excitement. It took a lot of hard work and commitment to publish o yearbook soid Editor Lori Peterson, but we oil know that when those books arrive in May, oil of the hours of hard work and frustration will be only o distant memory — replaced by pride on o job well done. 106 Avilo Anthem Lisa Shore Center, Top- 1st Row, L-R,: Tosneem Bader, Liz Von Note, Lori Peterson, Liesa Davis, Lisa Shore, 2nd Row: Debby Amos, Sports and Speciol Interests Editor.
