May, Coordinator Lee Charles, SADD Organizer New Fine Arts Complex Scheduled to Open in Fall The new Fine Arts Complex will be fully operational by the Fall of 1985. When completed, the 13 million dollar Center will consist of three main components: an art wing designed to house sculpture and painting studios as well as a student art gallery, a performance wing which will contain two studio theatres, a dance studio, and a 450 seat chamber, and the main component, a 1200 seat indoor-outdoor auditorium that will feature a retractable rear wall. The Complex hopes to attract support from the campus as well as from the community in its aspirations for the Center. Throughout the academic year, the Center plans 1o present a mixture of campus and non-campus artistic productions. However, during the summers, the Complex will mainly host performers from outside the academic community. 3 New Campus Services In eager anticipation we ran around checking out the three new campus ser- vices that made their appearances this year. We expected the most changes from Marriott who took over the campus food services. Nothing appeared to be different on the surface except for the Pub. Instead of the muraled walls which we all came to love, the walls were painted institutional- like beige. The hanging ferns over the bar do give it a nice touch. The food doesn't taste much different although now we buy food by the inch, and the Mini Mall is finally open before 11:30 for coffee. Mar- riott also offers an on-campus delivery ser- vice which is an alternative to midnight Domino pizza attacks. The Barnes and Noble bookstore is an improvement with extended check cashing and an immediate sales discount on text- book purchases. However, no one expected to have to pay twenty cents for every check cashed. In addition, a bookbag checker en- sures the safety of our belongings. And for computer buffs, Barnes and Noble offers discounted computers and computer software. Versatile Vending make the most unex- pected changes. Digital and very polite vending machines offer a more sophisticated variety of foods. Microwave ovens were installed throughout campus. Now we have more of an excuse to take a break from studying to vend. Versatile also brought back Coca Cola products to cam- pus now we can once again enjoy Tab along with Diet Pepsi. 21 22 Almost overnight the Greek way of life has exploded onto the SUNY-B campus. From only three members in 1981 the Greek system has grown to in- clude 23 fraternities and sororities and includes chapters of both national and local organizations. The growing in- terest in fraternities and sororities 1s attributed to a return to tradition on campuses nationwide. Although each shares a common bond, they are all unique and represent a wide range of academic, athletic and social interests. Delta Sigma Pi, the management fraternity, is the only fraternity that has both male and female members. The Inter Greek Council, the ruling body of the Greek system, oversees the organizations, policies, and events of all the fraternities such as running fun- draisers for charity. This year, the IGC held its first annual Greek Olympics which was won by Delta Omega Phi. The IGC has been encouraged by the favorable response to the Greek system. The system has spred throughout campus offering an alternative way to socialize. Whether it's by sponsoring a MM athon Sigma Delta Tau, rolling a keg from Syracuse to Binghamton FET, or running Carnival TAU, each fraternity is responsible for raising money for charity. The other side to Greek life is parties, step shows, beauty pageants and fashion shows. With the growing trend of go- ing Greek, SUNY-B has turned into a pot-pouri of colors. For the untrained eye it might get a bit confusing so: blue and gold AEPi, red, white and blue Delta Omega Phi, pink and green AKA, green and white FET. ..

At the time of graduation, all students have a common achievement the completion of 126 credits. Though some have fulfilled this only in the classroomm, others have opted to earn credit while gaining invaluable experience in community service programs and professional internships. Still others traveled to foreign countries where they lived and learned in new and fascinating environments. We asked some of these students to share their experiences in order to illustrate other facets of education at SUNY-B. Through Depth. .. In interviewing professors for this sectioin we learned something very valuable they are both ap- proachable and friendly. They are more than willing to share their ideas and personal experiences with students. In these pages, they have stepped out of their academic roles and answered some of the ques- tions students always wanted to ask them. To Perspective. . . What would an overview of campus be without a look at the physical changes that have taken place? Movement of offices, departmental expansions, and attempts at alleviating tedium through com- puterization are just some of these. Also, a look at the library, which serves as a microcosm for the whole campus from the first floor social atmosphere to quiet study corners, this is the place where most of us have spent a good deal of the past four years. heanlsten i For ten years the third floor of Science 1V has been occupied by the Children's Unit for treatment and evaluation, a facility which has gained respect throughout the country for providing intensive, one-to-one treatment that is both sensitive and sym- pathetic to the needs of autistic children and children with other severe disorders. The Unit has computer and lab space, offices for counseling, staff, and administration, and rooms for classes, therapy, and play. Qualified professionals including clinical psychologists, special education teachers and speech pathologists, supervise all programs. While many of us may be unaware of the Children's Unit's existence, 545 undergraduates have been actively involved. The majority of students are trained to perform specific therapy programs designed to eliminate the autistic child's negative behavior traits and to help the child acquire speech, social skills, and self-help ability. Other students are data analysts, summarizing results of each child's performance and behavior to provide precise feedback for staff and families while some are involved in research projects such as the use of computer instructions to reduce behavioral problems. Artistic students make many of the stimulus materials that are used to create a healthy school environment. The Unit also trains undergraduates to model basic teaching techniques to parents in parent-training sessions which enable them to help the child in the home. Work-study students and nursing students are also involved. This part-time undergraduate staff shares responsibility with the professional staff to insure individual treatment to each child in an effort to habilitate and func- tionally prepare the child for a regular school system. Whatever the particular function one has at the Childrens Unit, all will agree that it is unlike any course. The Children's Unit is more than research or laboratory work, independent studies, seminars, or lectures; it is an experience into a dif- ferent way of life. Ferne Pomeraniz The internships available through the Off Campus College of- fer students a wide range of opportunities in which they can ac- quire valuable and practical knowledge to supplement what has been learned in theory. My internship at the New York State At- torney General's office has done this and more. It has enabled me to learn a great deal about the law, consumer law in particular. The Attorney General's office attempts to mediate problems and misunderstandings which sometimes arise between consumers and merchants, or landlords and tenants. I have full responsibility for the cases I am assigned to and also participate in investiga- tions against habitually occurring fraudulent practices. I enjoy serving the public and resolving disputes that are brought to our attention. The internship has also had a positive effect on my future. It has enabled me to explore various career possibilities in the field of law I am interested in. Suzette M. Melendez Childrens Unit As a senior majoring in Political Science, with a con- centration in Public Administration, I have found my internship experience to be extremely rewarding both personally and academically. Working in the Presi- dent's office at Broome Community College has pro- vided me with valuable insights into many aspects of the administration of an educational institution. My internship involves attending meetings with the Presi- dent on a variety of topics, including budgeting and program development. 1 also serve as a co-advisor to the International Student Organization at B.C.C. The insights that can be gained through hands-on work - e such as this can never be thoroughly conveyed in a tex- My internship at WBNG-TV 12 has been the highlight of my four years at Suny Binghamton. It has afforded me the opportuni- ty to explore a career I have always been interested in. I have learned how to edit, operate a television camera, write scripts for broadcast, and create and produce stories. My internship began in the Fall 84 semester, in the general production department. Then I became involved with Action News for Kids after producing a segment on juggling. I was thrilled when I was asked to return in the Spring as the separate intern for this show. I was very for- tunate that WBNG was giving me this opportunity to learn more about the broadcasting business, especially in the field of children's programming. I have gained a lot of practical ex- perience from my internship, experience I could never have ac- quired by just attending classes every day. 1 have learned about television production in real working conditions, and most impor- tantly, 1 am now sure that this is the career I wish to pursue. tbook. Internships demand a certain amount of self- motivation and initiative, as well as the ability to ac- cept responsibilities. Although my internship requires more time and energy than a traditional class, it is well worth the effort. 1 have found my internship to be a valuable tool in helping to make an educated career choice. 1 believe an internship is an excellent way to enhance the academic experience at SUNY Binghamton. Nadia M. Rubaii Mary K. Miller I e e T e Off-Campus College Internships 119 120 AN AMERICAN Study abroad in London England! It sounded like a dream which 1 could never fulfill. But as they say, Dreams do come true. Before I knew it I was on the plane and staring Big Ben in the face. Being an English major, London was especially intriguing. All of my readings were no longer of unknown regions. Chaucer's Canterbury Tales came to life as 1 stood within the walls of Canterbury Cathedral. Shakespeare's plays took on new meaning as I explored his childhood home of Stratford-upon-Avon. The River Thames, Westminster Abbey, Trafalgar Square, and Piccadilly Circus were all real places, not simply names invented by authors, and Sherlock Holmes really did live on Baker Street. I was enrolled in four courses at the Polytechnic of North Lon- don and I enjoyed attending class, even if just for the sim- ple pleasure of hearing the accents. In general, England's educational system is quite different from ours, stressing reading and writing as opposed to memorizing and testing, which suited me just fine. I learned a great deal in class, but most of my education resulted from traveling and exploring. I wish everyone could have the experience I have had. The world is ours to discover. 1' London Diane Spelman .? As much as I have enjoyed my years at SUNY-Binghamton, the highlight of my college career was the semester 1 spent on a study abroad program in Paris. This once-in-a-lifetime experience opened my eyes to a new culture and lifestyle. By simply explor- ing my city and striving to be accepted as a true Parisian, 1 learned more than can ever be taught in a classroom. The people 1 met and the many experiences I had made it easy to call Paris my second home. 1 will never forget those strolls along the river Seine, those peaceful days passed on park benches, those hours spent ad- miring Notre Dame. 1 would not trade those memories for anything. Years from now when I think back to my college days, I will always remember my semester abroad with a smile. P s S e Tel-Aviv is the economic and cultural center of Israel, a country at the heart of the volatile heart of the Middle East. I spent a semester at Tel-Aviv University in order to experience life in this complex and fascinating region first hand. The Overseas Student Program at the university offers a wide range of courses given in the English language. The emphasis is on the political and social structures of Israel and her Arab neighbors. The program also sponsors trips across Israel and these outings provided me with a real feel for the land, its history, and people. I gained numerous other advantages from my semester in Israel including the opportunity to share my liv- ing quarters with three young men of the Druse faith. They are an Arabic people who live in the Golan Heights. 1 found their beliefs and opinion on the region to be quite valuable. Also, since Israel is of religious interest to many people, I became acquainted with pilgrims from all over the world. I view the entire experience as a great way to gain insight into a complex region and also have a very enjoyable time When I was a junior at SUNY-Binghamton I elected to study abroad at the University of Copenhagen. The program there was a comprehensive one, allowing for a change of perspective. It not only served to broaden my educational background but also pro- vided the mechanism by which I could examine our own culture. In Copenhagen, 1 was presented with various opinions about the The fall semester of 1984 proved to be a challenging and transitional experience for me because I spent the semester studying abroad in a SUCNew Paltz program in Seville, Spain.

In the age of the nuclear arms race and the ever-present tension between the superpowers, this view is understandable.

The director of the program urged us to take ad- vantage of the diverse nature of Spain and regard our op- I portunity to study there as an important cultural and linguistic one. At the risk of sounding like a tourist brochure. 1 should say that my trips throughout Spain presented as much pleasure as the thought of having gourmet food buffet-style. 1 visited cities like Cordoba and Madrid and walked through miles and miles of cathedrals and other places of historical interest.

One thing you can do given that p we don't know the meaning of it all is try to find out what everything is all about. That's why I teach.

But there's a kind of growth I may never reach an end but somewhere every year I am better than I was the year before. Martin C. Dillon, Philosophy 122 77 1 The first class that 4 comes to mind was a course on Heidegger. It was the first time that I understood that there was a whole ter- rain of thought that I had never seen before. I don't know that I ful- Iy understood what it was like, but it was the first time 1 was kissed by a philosopher, as Kiekergaard would say. It was magical. Dennis Schmidt, Philosophy I don't really remember ever deciding to teach. I've just always wanted to teach and I think thats due to the teachers 1 have had. The most rewcarding things are the contact with students and with colleagues of course. And getting a salary to read lots and lots and lots of good books. Patricia Speyser, English psvchology In my early 20s, I attended the London School of Economics, and o0k a course on international economics and the balance of payments. For the first time, 1 realized that no country can live in isolation. The course was given by James Mead, later to win the Nobel Prize. In addition to being a great scholar, he was a warm human being. Now, when 1 get angry at my students I always remember him and I try to cool down. Jan Michal, Economics I once took a seminar dealing with an exploration of a new theoretical approach to perception through ecology. It showed me that in order to understand psychology, one must also understand nature and how science relates to it. I then saw that everything that I enjoyed learning about could be put together into one line of study which is now my career. Claudia Carello, Psychology Experimental has rewarding? The only person that real- qIy affected me as my teacher was Robert Goldwater. He gave a seminar on symbolism in late 19th century art. Robert wasn't a scin- tillating lecturer, but he listened and asked a lot of questions. 1 feel that he gave me permission to think. He paid respect to my mind, and gave me the courage to adventure.

My students believe the Grenada invasion was the key; they feel it was an accomplishment and to them, that's what Ronald Reagan sig- nifies a sense of accomplishment. Walter Filley Political Science e A Although 1 can't speak specifically about college r students think certainly one of the most important factors for his popularity in general is because of the economic prosperity which he's brought. Charles Bischoff, Economics Frankly I don't know. I didn't even know he was that popular among college students. Harold Babh, Psychology Reagan's popularity has its overwhelming consequence in economic growth. 1 think in a sense you had Candidate A and Candidate B, p and it happened that Candidate A was identified with economic growth, which I consider to be only an illusion, and Candidate B was identified with the first woman to run for nationwide office, and that bothered a lot of folks. I would say that Gerry Ferraro played a small role, the economy was overwhelmingly important, and marginal issues like Alffirmative Action explains why Ronald Reagan is popular among students. Andrew Milnor, Political Science 124 The most striking thing in recent years has been that students are less rebellious. They don't tend to challenge ideas presented to them, as much as in the past. They seem o be more career- oriented, and so more conservative in their attitudes. While it is easier for a professor in the classroom, it is also disheartening that the students don't seem to be as interested in the curriculum as in the grade. Harold Nieburg, Political Science The thing that strikes me the most these days is that students are looking for a justification in choosing the liberal arts, in a way that they never did before. They are more concerned than ever about telling their parents why a The greatest change in liberal arts major is acceptable. 1 have a handout titled d the students is in their Y hat can you do with an English major, and it seems to be a more valuable and popular hand out than it used to be. Alvin Vos, English lack of preparation for college. They are more concerned with career 4 interests. While many students used to come through school on their way to graduate school, the trend now is toward making themselves marketable immediately after the armers e OgrsT four years. ! in fl:ffr f!df! Donald Trow, Sociology I don't think the students are as high caliber as in the past. There is more competition among schools now for top students, so less are com- ing to Binghamton. With this comes a decline in the quality of work pro- duced, and in study out- side of the classroom. It gets kind of depressing sometimes.

I am very supportive of this move. We need good physi- p cians, and good students become good physicians. Good physicians must be aware of the human factor as well as the human mechanism. One thing that fosters this is a strong liberal arts education. 1 try to en- courage this in my students. Bruce Norcross, Chemistry ! think itis a fine thing for the medical schools to be interested in those who are not narrowly educated, those who have taken ad- vantage of the opportunities offered to them at the undergraduate level. When doctors work, they deal not only with test tubes, but also with people, some with different backgrounds than their own. Liberal arts teach doctors how to relate to all patients, in a way that is advantageous to both of them. Daniel Konowalow, Chemistry Medical students need to have strong science backgrounds in order to work at the advanced level of medical school. But as doctors, they may have to treat patients from different I think it is an ex. cthnic groups, or work with ethnic-linked diseases, and so cellent idea, and it familiarity with human and social behavior is important. amazes me that Therefore, incorporation of behavioral science electives into medical schools have the rigid pre-med program can prove very beneficial. taken so long to do Michael Little, Anthropology - this. Emphasis on only v technical training reinforces doctors tendencies to treat pa- tients as objects rather than people. The broader an education they get, the better they will be able to relate to their patients as fellow human beings. H. Stephen Straight Anthropology I always tell my students that they should not come to school with only the goal of becoming a medical student there is always the chance that they will not get in to medical school. Their goal should be to get an education. By coming to school to learn, they will have more success coming out of school, as more oppor- tunities will be available to them.

Students still prefer on line registration because they know whether they got into a class or whether they were closed out right away instead of having to wait until the results come in the mail. Most students end up on line in the gym changing their schedules anyway. Administration says that the com- puterized system responds better to stu- dent and professor needs. One component of advance registration that was modified was the dropping of alternaties. This was in response to the increased schedule satisfaction of primary choices and the response of the academic department to student course requests. And so the debate goes on. but for now, computerized registration is on the SUNY-B campus to stay. Student Services Have a New Home - When we returned to campus this fall, we found that what was once the Professional Building was now the home of the Engineering School. Displaced students wandered around like incoming Freshmen trying to find the five student services offices. We finally found them in the Classroom Wing. Classroom Wing? No, not any more. That too was renamed Stu- dent Academic Services. Students could no longer enjoy the roominess of SIRR with its tables and chairs for schedule mak- ing. Instead, like the other offices, SIRR is just a door in a crowded hallway. As a result, the lines formed by waiting students all con- verge into one mob, and the line to hand in grid sheets extends into the Lecture Hall. Although on the surface it ap- pears that everyone has accepted the move, when you pass one of those long lines, you can overhear students and employees mumbling about the way it was in the days of the Professional Building. 129 Glenn G.: Our Home Away From e - Progress: More Computers and More Another part ol campus that was under construction this year was the Computer Center. The renova- tions were necessary to make room for new computers and to accom- modate the many users of the Room Center. IBM PCs and Apple Ils were the new microcomputer addi- tions and a new VAX 11785 main- frame computer was installed. In all, approximately 50 new ter- minals and microcomputers were added in the public terminal and microcom- puter complex. In addition, the POD was recarpeted and bathrooms were installed all in an effort to make the endless hours spent there more comfortable. High Technology Comes to SUNY-Binghamton . : The Watson School of Engineer- : ing, Applied Sciences and Technology found a new home this year in the newly renovated Engineering Building. Currently 1,100 students are enrolled in the School which was enthusiastically welcomed by the academic and industrial communi- ty of Binghamton. In order to develop the School, hire instructors and construct facilities, SUNY-B received state appropriated funds as well as finan- cial pledges from local industries. Presently, only third and fourth year engineering students are enrolled in the Watson School but in the future, freshmen will be ac- cepted into a full four year program. 136 s a . o v a:-n-- e ',:' 4 1 A3 L 2 P 137 139 e - o gg photos by Matt Mendelsotin 141 145 146 147 148 149 150 151 154 John Bohn 157 158 Matthew Mend o o - 161 162 163 164 165 167 168 169 172 173 175 176 178 e 4 179 180 - INGAAMT.

That is the question you all ask She was one of us your classmate, Our best friend. It seems like only yesterday when we laughed and joked of things that were, and things that would be. Never expecting that she would be someplace else a place we can only dream of. Her smile was like magic when she smiled the world did. The memories of her smile, her beauty, her love, will last forever. How very lucky we are to have known her. Who was Lisa? Someone who has touched our lives. Someone who will be with us always. For there are never any endings, only new beginnings. 291 295 298 TREFa . e g - s oy e B BT A It T R s ST PRI A SR TTES IO T 8t e PRI T S TS T K T A PR R T AU ot Sl e P G R ey ALY sy S 1 Matt Mendelsahn 303 idney yony?
