WELCOME TO B.U.! DEDICATION Mr. Ruby Wray This year, the yearbook staff is proud to dedicate the 1986-1987 Beaver Tales to Mr. Ruby Wray. Mr. Wray has served as head of the Business Administration Department for nine years and recently as advisor to the yearbook. Mr. Wray has gained the respect and ad- miration of his students through his constant dem- onstration of professional- ism and hard work. Mr. Wray sets high standards and inspires his students to meet these standards. His dedication to his students is evident by the hours he keeps to make himself avail- able and the thoroughness of the attention he gives in helping his students regis- ter. Mr. Wray has touched us in many ways and will not be forgotten. “Mr. Wray is what dedication is all about; he puts forth the time and effort to help students succeed in life. There is never a moment when he is not there for you. Through his leadership, he enables students to believe in themselves and become successful in life. | feel very fortu- nate to of had him a part of my four years at Blackburn.” Scott Brendle, Class of '87 eX “If |were asked to name one teacher that has had the most influence on me, | would answer Mr. Wray. As a teacher and advisor, he has helped me learn and has always been con- cerned with my progress. But above all, he has given me the encouragement to grow; the ability to believe in myself. He has rooted in me my desire to succeed - not only in business, but in all areas of life. | will always be grateful to him for this. Thank you Mr. Wray! I'll miss you!” Susan Kramer, Class of ’87 TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction 1 Faculty | 4 Organizations Events 13 Dorm Life 44 Work Program 52 Staff and Admissions 67 Athletics 74 Candids 97 Underclassmen 111 Seniors 120 Graduation 128 Advertising 138 Dr. Iqbal Akhtar Ms. Geraldine Albins Economics Physical Education Ms. Rusalyn Andrews Dr. Mark Armstrong Speech Communication Chemistry Dr. Melba Buxbaum Spanish Dr. Ann Barnard English Dr. Alberto Cacicedo Ms. Marion Carlson English Physical Education Mr. Mitchell Clark Mr. William Collman Art Physical Education % i if . e i 8 Dr. Richard Crowell .
