ST 3 1833 07442 4455 GC 977.202 M920 1986 R emembering an unen- cumbered time when life was young and carefree, each student will recall some special reason why Ball State made a difference to the past and to the future. Whether it was the first class or the last, every one is left with a particular image of what it meant to be a student. Through lonely hours, at times burdened with confusion, students tackled course request forms. Each quarter’s attempt to find the right number of hours produced for many an abun- dance of stress and resignation. There always seemed to be some reason why registration wasnt right the first time. One little change of mind often meant a second trip to the ad- viser’s office and another wait in line at the registrar. Waiting was common place. Whether it was at registration or at the bookstore checkout, whether it was waiting for din- ner in the residence hall or at the Tally, even the walk back to one’s room created a wait at the Scramble Light. But once students adjusted to the customary delays, they were ready for an eventful year to begin. Newy designed ban- ners adorn the front of the Arts Terrace during graduation ceremonies. The banners, designed by William Zack, an in- structor of Art, were the least controversial part of the altered tradition which featured new sub- ceremonies for the indi- vidual colleges. Biecken Library owns almost a million vol- umes. While 448,345 items got checked out in the 1985-86 year, stu- dents often complained that the library wasn’t open enough. The home team always wears the darker jersey, but the home advantage didn’t help the Cards as Miami of Ohio defeated them 17-13. Out of the five home games played, Ball State only won one game. Stusents learn to rap- pel across the Duck Pond as part of ROTC training exercises. Other exercises included rap- peling on the Ball State Football Stadium and building rope bridges from Botsford Hall to Swinford Hall. Ghristy Woods, located behind West Quad, is a popular retreat for stu- dents. The small pre- serve’s numerous vari- eties of trees provided students with cover for a few quiet moments.
