Thanks and congratulations to one of the most loyal and supportive student bodies in the country. Bill Flynn, Athletic Director here is no national Institution greater than the dignity of the student. Fr. Hanrahan, Dean of Students Deirdre Reidy I he process of active involvement is as important as the product it creates, because within that process one can transfer and apply the skills learned beyond the college experience. Extracurricular activity provides a learning laboratory to test out one ' s values, goals and abilities. Carole Wegman, Director OSPAR Peter Klidaras B L oston College ' s main responsibility is to provide its students witli an excellent education, botli inside and outside the classroom, A talented and dedicated facult worl lng together with a gifted and responsive student body have helped (BC) to respond to that challenge very well. I hope the members of the class of 1985 will always support BC ' s commitment to academic excellence. Joseph R. Fohey, S.J., Academic Vice President B i L oston College blossomed In our four short years into one of thie most prominent and Influential Universities In thie nation. Our class hielped uniquely by giving BC a football legend, significant changes in extracurricular activities, and higher academic standards. We tal e with us a well-rounded education, solid friendships, and memories of our time here that will last forever. Jeff Theilman, President UGBC Peter Klidaros Opening 15 HI Boston 17 city of tradition, tiiis diverse town strives to recognize ali forms of culture and intellect. For Boston In 1636 when Harvard was founded Boston was already a major port of call. In the late 1700s, when John Adams and Co. were agitating for home-rule, Bos- ton was on affluent merchant communi- ty. When Turner turned out his thesis on Manifest Destiny and other educated men spoke of the great American ex- periment—the melting pot of European cultures, Boston was a cauldron at full boil. What was this city in 1985? The Athens of the new world? An actively political town where freedom and hu- man rights were still defended? A Yich mosaic ' of cultural pride and diversi- fication? The answer was yes. The Boston we knew OS students was and would always be the manifestation of the original American ideal — Freedom: Freedom to pursue the most excellent education a brilliant mind deserved; Freedom to be free, to hove a say in government, to worship in whatever fashion one ' s con- science led, to enjoy culture, sports, the benefits of hard work; And freedom to revel in being uniquely American — Ital- ian-American, Irish-American, Chinese-American, Bristish-American, Polish-American, the list was unending. Boston was not, however, the Came- lot of the east. It had had racial prob- lems, political muckraking and under- handedness. Where else could a man like Jake Curly have been elected mayor while serving time in prison? Hadn ' t the news clips of Boston police breaking up riots nearly become a high school subject? It was common to see an Indigent picking through a trash can in search of food while a seemingly in- different crowd of well dressed, well fed people hurried off to the Gardner Museum or the Top of the Hub. No one talked about the C ombat Zone. A cab- by would only go there If he had a revolv- er in the glove compartment, But these problems did not dominate the city ' s lifestyle. Concerned Bostonians actively waged war on these abuses and injus- tices. The Salvation Army ran soup kitch- ens where a hungry person could get a meal and talk to an understanding, concerned listener, Whomever was run- ning for mayor at the time swore to clean up the city and sometimes the promise lived through the elections, Bos- ton was one of the few cities where a black mayoral candidate like Mel King could lead a Rainbow coalition of people from oil racial origins in a close mayoral race even though demo- graphically the city was predominantly white, Boston ' s unique flavor came from a fine blend of seasonings from the North End washed down with a Guiness stout from the South end. Boston ' s classy taste was enjoyed by the precocious Harvard freshman who seemingly lived in the MFA, the BC student who went early to get good seats at the Symphony shell, and by the MIT researcher who denied herself a night on the town to be able to volunteer at the Children ' s Hospital, Bos- ton ' s liveliness got out of hand now and ttien at ttie Garden dieering on ttie Celt- ics, Its intensity would not be quieted at rallies and fund raisers. The final view of Boston was perhaps best seen from the Heights at BC. There was no better city to live in while at col- lege. Seniors looked at the old Hancock building reflected in the Hancock sky- scraper and saw there not only the cultural heritage of a great city but how It hod completed our education, mak- ing us citizens of Boston and, in a larger sense, of the free world. — T.H.

BLUE line, GREEN line . . . B-line, C-line, D-line ... All of these terms were associated with the trolley or T , Boston ' s infamous transit system. Not.only did this system provide a means of transportation, it was also the source of more humor than any comedy club in Boston. After a few years at B.C. every student knew at least one good T tale. The emotional requirements for riding the T were rather simple. One needed to have a very good sense of humor, an anything goes attitude, and the men- tal preparation to encounter a variety of strange people and events. For some unknown reason the trolley ride was like a full moon — there always seemed to be an element of lunacy in the air. The types of people riding the T ranged from small children enroute to school, to a tired businessman on his way home from the office, to the woman whose life ' s possessions were carried in a few large shopping bags. Then there were the zanies such as one young man who was observed carving his ini- tials onto the back of his hand while he was waiting for a train at Park Street Station. One came to expect the unex- pected. There were a number of amusing events that happened on the T . For example, one December, a gentleman got on the T with a case of beer under his arm. He announced that it was his job to make sure that everyone on that train was happy. At this point he handed out cans of beer to the passengers and in- vited all to sing Christmas carols with him. Another occurrence took place in the Copley Station when a man in an old overcoat set up a washtub string guitar and broke out in strains of Some Enchanted Evening . There were certain things that simply had to be accepted when setting out for a ride on the trolley. The T wanted would invariably be the T which just pulled away. If the D line was desired it was a certainty that it would come only after half a dozen C and B trains rattled by. Daring to take the T during rush hour, required stami- na. Learning to be squeezed, jostled and shoved against complete strangers became a necessity. Remember also that people who were not yet on the train firmly believed that there was al- ways room for one more. — Gretchen Popagodo staff Photo 20 Boston staff Photo Who needs a car? The pass above could get one anywhere: To Washington Station, out from Kenmore, or rushing to who knows where. Northeastern had Huntington street, was anyone jealous? Boston University had Kenmore square, did anyone care? Emerson had . . . where did they keep Emerson anyway? But, BC, BC had the place of honor among colleges in Boston. BC had Chestnut Hill. Chestnut Hill was a fairytale town with the grass always being greener on its side. It was a suburban neighborhood, But since Boston College was on the bor- der between the city of Boston and the suburb of Newton, it derived benefits from both the large metropolitan city and the residential suburb. The residential suburb of Newton was located about one mile from the col- lege ' s main campus. Nev rton was a marvelously ritzy, elite, little neighbor- hood. Just driving or walking along Commonwealth Ave. from BC toward Newton, it was easy to notice the typical New England houses. The ivy palaces of Nev on was made of warm, red brick or perhaps laid out in a Tudor style. The Newton Campus of Boston Col- lege was a big part of this classy com- munity. The students who lived on the campus had an opportunity to interact with Newton ' s residents on a personal and educational level, whether it be babysitting for a local family or learning | management at one of Nev 4on Cen- j ter ' s quaint shops. in addition to Boston College students interacting with residential Newton, BC , also benefited from Boston itself. The . Circle was just one of the more popular ' locations for off campus residents to live during their year of off campus housing. Many students rented an apartment in Cleveland Circle with three or four of their friends, it was a circle of public facilities, such as movie theaters, a park, stores and a mass transportation center surrounded by purley Bostonian apart- : ment houses complete with baywin- dows and fireplaces, Boston College ' s domination of the Hill provided BC students with much more than a good view of the city. Chestnut Hill embodied a Camelot for coeds during their four undergraduate years. The coeds in turn would be loyal and tnje to it and their alma mater in the i years to come.

Kim Langdon 22 Boston Makis latridis Boston 23 Cooped Up Just across the Charles River from Bos- ton was Cambridge. It had a definite character of its own. Harvard and MIT contributed to the atmosphere of edu- cation that pervaded the area, but the abundance of intellect was not the only quality that distinguished Cambridge from its surroundings. Sometimes the city seemed trapped in a time warp, a ref- uge for left-over flower children, but at the same time it was at the vanguard in diverse areas as technology and social issues, It was an area full of free spirits, each contributing his or her own views to form a composite which made Cam- bridge liberal, experimental, intellectu- al, and eccentric all at the same time. Harvard Square represented the core of Cambridge, and the heart of the square was Harvard University. With an academic tradition that dated back to 1636, Harvard was the pinnacle of elite American education. It was amazingly private considering the city that sur- rounded it, but the bookstore that served Harvard was a mecca for any- one who wants to purchase anything from a micro-computer to a deck of cards. If an apartment or dorm room was looking a little barren, the ' Coop ' was the place to go for all decorating needs. With all the diverse articles in the Coop ' , it was sometimes hard to re- member that it was a bookstore. If the Coop ' didn ' t have what was wanted, the neighborhood stores did, Urban Outfitters carried Esprit clothes, weaved mats, and kitchen utensils. The Garage, right down the street, counted Newbury Comics and a specialty cof- fee shop among its boutiques. Specialty shops, many of them selling the ever popular ice cream, were places at which people congregated. Two out- door magazine stands sold everything from the most recent Paris Match to Pravda, the official newspaper of the Soviet Union, Harvard Square offered free enter- tainment outside during the evening. The entrances to the Coop offered great acoustics to all sorts of musicians and their audiences. Leaflets advertis- ing everything from cults to shoes to so- cial issues were handed to the crowds heading by. Some headed for off-beat movie houses in the area like The Orson Welles and the Brattle Street Theater. Cambridge was not defined by Har- vard Square aione. It was also the Hyatt with The Spinnakar restaurant and Cen- tral Square. The Inn ' s Square Men ' s Bar showcased some of the best local bands in intimate, surroundings. With such diversity and uniqueness, Cam- bridge continued to be a place which was included on many people ' s itinerar- ies long after graduation. — Laura Swain Cloekwls from right: a cr w t am tcull along the Charles River; sailors take advan- tage of a summer breeze; a patch of green on Harvard Square; the gates of Harvard Yard John Boswell 24 Boston Specialty of the Day Every once in a while tl ere came the time when food at the dining hail just didn ' t make the grade. Or a quick search in the refrigerator to find some leftover macaroni and cheese only re- suited in a half stick of margarine and a box of Arm and Hammer Baking Soda. That was the time to eat out . . . Luckily, Boston offered a wide variety of culinary delights ranging from the good old hearty pizza pie to the elo- quent creations presented by the more sophisticated establishments around town. No matter what the occasion was there was always some restaurant which would fulfill your needs. Faneuil Hall always ranked highly on the list of favorite restaurants. Here at the food hall you had the possibility of eat- ing every course of your meal at a differ- ent place. For starters who could resist the stuffed spinach cheese mushrooms as a quick appetizer? And for the health food addicts there was always the fresh fruit salads. The difficult part was deciding what to choose for your main course. Inevitably, some par- ticular aroma would successfully entice a . you into purchasing more food. Who could forget No Names? Talk about generic no frills dining! The in- teresting aspect was that its simplicity actually enhanced its wonderful non- sensical atmosphere. It always helped to eat some snack before you left home because the chances were high that you would be standing in a line which started yards outside the front door, wound up and down a set of stairs, around a pole and overto the reception desk before you could see the tables. Yet no one ever seemed to mind the wait because by the time you were almost seated, you and your friends had polished off the case of beer you had brought along to drink with dinner. As a matter of fact you were just beginning to help the group behind you finish their bottle of wine when the hostess was pull- ing you into the dining room. Whaaat . . . dinnertime already??! Top favorites in the ethnic foods in- cluded the North End ' s prize winning European Restaurant and the Mexican Guadalaharry ' s. If Oriental food was more your dish Aku-Aku or the Hong- Kong were the places to visit . . . without forgetting to bring your picture-ID. What about those nights when Ched- dar cheese and sour cream potato skins (with bacon bits) seemed a little too high for your daily calorie requirement? Well, thats when Souper Salad always wove its way into every disciplined diet- ers heart. Every once in awhile your date was so special that he or she made 33 Dunster St seem like Wendy ' s. That was the time to put on your fancy outfits and enter the elegant dining atmosphere offered at Union Oyster House or the Charthouse. The magical air was just the touch to make that lasting romantic impression on your date. Inevitably, in the course of you r dining history at Boston College, you soon dis- covered that not only did Boston ' s res- taurants offer great food, they contrib- uted to some very fond memories as well. — Tania Zielinski Staff Photo 26 Boston American Heritage Like any other large city, Boston had its own ethnic sections such as the North End, the South End and Chinatown. To an outsider, these areas might have suggested a segregation of sub- cultures. However, unlil e any other large city was Boston ' s enormous student pop- ulation, bringing with it fresh, open- minded enthusiasm. For those of us who had the opportunity to explore Boston over our years here, we knew that our city was not composed of isolated sub- cultures, but instead was a blend of var- ious sub-cultures, inviting all to partici- pate. To observe the influence of this melange, one needed only to struggle through the crowded food halls of Fanueil Hall. Here the olfactory nen es were bombarded by the aromas that drifted from various stalls advertising their ethnic cuisine. If a relaxed sit-down dinner was your preference, there were several restaurants in the immediate vicinity to choose from — a la francaise at the IVIagic Pan or ' south of the border ' to Guadalaharry ' s. If immerson was sought, the Italian North End was only a stones throw from the Marketplace, There local residents would converse heatedly in their native tongue while coeds sipped their cap- puccino in the Cafe Paradise. Strolling through the streets while a feast took place was an experience in itself. Natur- ally the word Italian connotates visions of delectable specialties ranging from canneloni to canoli! The Asian influence was not central- ized in the peep-show district of China- town. The Hong Kong in Cambridge and Aku-Aku in Back Bay were often fre- quented by students from all over Bos- ton. After a couple of the infamous Scor- pion Bowls whether the restaurant was in Boston or China became blurred. Last but far from least was the Irish population in Boston which constituted the largest ethnic group in the city. Even without a drop of Irish blood, there was always that one day out of the year that fell somewhere in the middle of March. For B.C. students, St. Patrick ' s Day im- plied a self proclaimed holiday (or for those more dedicated students, a half day of classes] that begun at noon and Makis Icrtridis lasted until the wee hours of the mom ' . Droves of students flocked to the famous establishments such as The Purple Shamrock and the Black Rose. The most heart-warming aspect of the event was that singing, laughing, and dancing in the bars were people of all ethnic back- grounds as well as Irish, enjoying it just the same: this was the real advantage to the blending of ethnic cultures in Boston. — Maureen McNicholi Geoff Why 28 Boston Cash or Charge? Remember the first time you were in Boston and living away from home? The first time you realized that you were run- ning out of your special soap (or after- shave) and you casually told your room- mate that you had to go out to CVS and pick up some more? But sudden panic and sweaty palms took over as you real- ized that you didn ' t even know where a CVS was or worse yet what it was. If they hod to pick a name for a drug store why did it have to be something that sounds OS deadly as CVS? Better yet do you remember trying to decorate your room? You thought when you first saw it, cinder block walls just won ' t do. The RA had mentioned some- thing about a place called the Harvard Coop. It seemed strange that you could actually get discount posters at a coop but they were probably so cheap because you had to go to a chicken coop to get them. Oh well. chickens or no, the new checkbook needed some breaking in. But then senior year rolled around and you thought you were just so worldly. You knew the location of four CVS ' , four malls, three Telio ' s, two Hit or Misses, Filene ' s, Jordan Marsh, Brooks Brothers, Bloomingdale ' s, Macy ' s, Faneuil Hall, all the specialty shops on Newbury street, a variety of shoe stores, and three Lim- iteds. Face it; whenever you were able to close that closet door (or curtain an up- per campus dorm-dweller will so fondly recall) you knew it was time to hit the streets of Boston and find some more clothes to stuff into it. And what a selec- tion to choose from! Filene ' s was proba- bly the most frequented until you found that weird little Experienced Clothing shop over in Cambridge and from then on in it was downhill until mom started buying suits senior year forcing you to face the reality that the real world was quickly approaching. Fortunately, Boston offered a number of different stores for the variety of tastes it had. Thus shopping in town served a dual purpose of fulfilling the needs of the shopper and getting the BCer into the city to do some exploring. Wide selec- tions showed us that there is life beyond sweatshirts and Levi ' s. Shopping in Bos- ton was a pleasure, an adventure, a figure in the checkbook, a bargain at Telio ' s that you saw at Jordan Marsh for fifteen dollars more, the little heart shaped stone with I Love Boston painted on it that you bought at the Bull Mari et for your little sister. But above all shop- ping was the end of your senior year when you were still trying to figure out how to balance your checkbook . . . — Tenia Zielinski Alison Brooks 30 Boston Events that shaped the world as well as our daily lives Making News Boston was a city of ever-changing tides and waves. New winners and ios- ers, deiights and tragedies, improve- ments and demolitions were making tineir mark on the city. The municiple events of the past four years had a major effect on Boston and the schools it hosted. Below are some of the most im- portant happenings between Septem- ber, 1981 and May, 1985. Sports On June 12, 1984, the Boston Celtics won their fifteenth National Bas- ketball Association Championship against the L.A. Lakers. The score was 111-102. Larry Bird was named Most Valu- able Player of the seven game series. The Celtics started the 1984 season with a new coach and a new owner but they proved that their talents could over- come these obstacles. Mayor Ray Flynn congratulated the team, saying their victory symbolizes the new spirit of Boston. Boston Red Sox fans witnessed the end of an era as Carl Yastrzemski retired from baseball on October 2, 1983. Yaz had played for 23 years, in 3,303 games, which is the most ever played in the majors. He was 44 years old. Yastrzemski finished out his career as the designated hitter pinch hitter for the Red Sox. He was best known for winning the Triple Crown in 1967 with the top average (.326), most ajns batted in (121] and most home runs (44] for that year. Politics A new mayor of Boston was elected in 1983. On November 15th, Raymond L. Flynn had a 66%-34% win over Melvin H. King. King was the first black to become a Boston mayoral finalist in the city ' s history. The election marked a major shift in Boston politics. Former mayor Kevin White ' s sixteen years in office ended, as did his style of governing. Both Flynn and King followed very per- sonal campaigns; pledging support for better housing, improved jobs, educa- tion and neighborhood renovation. White had emphasized downtown de- velopment of hotels and office build- ings. The two candidates each spent about $400,000 on their campaigns, in contrast to White ' s $2 million average. Mel King ' s nomination in the primary was a turning point in Boston politics. It brought a sense of relief from the racial strife and the problems in the ethnic neighborhood that have plagued the city for the last twenty years. Flynn accepted his nomination with the prom- ise to work for the kind of people he came from. He was the first Boston mayor to be a native of South Boston. Accidents On January 23, 1982, a World Airway DC-10 landed at Logan Airport about 1000 feet beyond the nor- mal landing point, ran off the runway, and slid into Boston Harbor. The acci- dent occured at about 7:45 PM in icy conditions. An Air Florida plane had crashed into the Potomac River only eleven days earlier. Two passengers, seated in the nose section that broke off the plane, were never found and were presumed dead. No fatalities were known until three days after the accident because the flight passenger list contained only 196 peo- ple and all were accounted for. New openings A stunning example of Boston ' s explosive commercial growth was officially opened in April of 1984. The Copley Place, a 3.7 million square foot group of buildings, housed two hotels, four office buildings, 100 apartments, a movie theatre and over 100 shops and restaurants. The atmo- sphere was definitely high-class, with stores such as Neiman-Marcus, Tiffany ' s and Godiva Chocolates opening their doors onto a mall filled with marble, sky- lights and a waterfall. Crime Four men were found guilty and two more were acquitted in the Big Dan rape trial of March, 1984. In March of 1983, a woman claimed she had been gang raped on a pool table in the Big Dan Tavern in New Bedford, Mass. while onlookers cheered. The trial was historical because it was the first to be carried live on cable televi- sion and radio. The victim ' s name was revealed on the Today show, breaking the precedence of privacy in earlier rape coses. Another scandal sur- rounded the verdict, as Portuguese- American groups protested that the de- fendents were treated unfairly because of local prejudice against Portuguese. The four men found guilty of aggra- vated rape faced a sentence of six to ten years in prison. Religion Bernard F. Law became the eighth Archbishop of Boston on March 23, 1984. He was appointed by Pope John Paul II to take the place of Humber- to Cardinal Medeiros who died the pre- vious September. Law was from a dio- cese in Missouri and was known for his ecumenical stance. The 52-year-old priest was appointed to a city of 2 mil- lion Roman Catholics, the third largest in the country. The installation coincided with that of John J. O ' Connor as Archbishop of New York City. — Colleen Seibert The new Copley Place 32 Boston 11 The audiences of the Performing Arts of Boston enjoyed the best of two worlds. They hod access to the tours of high caliber dance, theater, and musical tal- ents while their city was called home by diverse entertainers, some of whom were world famous themselves. Boston ' s most enduring musical export was the Boston Pops, The orchestra first received national recognition under the direction of Arthur Fiedler. Through re- cordings and public television, the Pops performances were enjoyed by many people who could not have seen them at home in Boston. The traditional free concerts on the Charles were continued by the Pops under the direction of John Williams of The Star Wars Theme fame. There was a variety of ways to enjoy the classical Performing Arts in Boston. Enjoying the local talent of the Boston Ballet Company under the tremendous- ly talented Sarah Caldwell, or waiting forthe Boston performances of artists like flutist James Galway, and soprano Kiri Te Konawa were just a few, Boston was not a place for touring artists to simply perform. Sometimes, the city ' s reaction to the performance is used as a barometer by which Broad- way bound plays are measured. Tom- my Tune ' s My One and Only made its trial run here, but only after alterations had been made did the musical move on to a successful run in New York. Boston had a tradition of theater that was quite separate from New York. The Boston Shakespeare Company pro- duced plays ranging from Dostoevsky ' s Uncles Dream to Richard III . The American Repertory Theater and local university theaters like Harvard ' s Hasty Pudding Club Theatricals and BC ' s own Dramatics Society could employ cre- ative license where large scale produc- tions in New York could not. Boston also had its share of long run- ning plays. Shear Madness enjoyed a very long run in Beantown. Active audi- ence participation had become a part of Boston Theater. The Improvboston, and the defunct Mobius relied on audi- ence response for the direction of the play. On-the-spot improvisation was not li- mited to the theaters. It played an im- portant role in the Bostom comedy as well. Clubs like the Comedy Connection and Nick ' s Comedy Stop had opened in response to the demand to see good, stand-up comics. Some bars like Play it Again Sam ' s had their own comedy nights. The Paradise was once exclu- sively a music club, but it had added Stitches as a comedy section with posi- tive results. Live performances of popular music had a home in Boston. Big name bands could be seen at the cavernous Boston Garden, at the converted theater that was the Orpheum, or at the Channel. Dunng the summer the Boston Com- mons was the site of large scale con- certs by such bands as the Eurythmics, the Go-Go ' s, and Huey Lewis. Smeller clubs like the Inn ' s Square Men ' s Bar in Cambridge and The Rat in Kenmore Square hosted bands anxious to follow the footsteps of local bands such as The Cars, Aerosmith, and Boston. Boston was a city in which the per- forming arts played a large and impor- tant role. The city welcomed all the traveling performers. This made many entertainers call Boston their home. — Laura Swain Clockwise from above: a young admirer lis- tens to an outdoor concert; ttie Arttiur Hedler memorial; ticket tiolders line up for a perfor- mance; a billboard for ttie play Shear Mad- ness Staff Photo 34 Boston Curtain Calls Perspective In the fall of 1985, Boston College be- come a member of the Museum of Fine Arts. For the first time, BC students could get in free with a college ID. BC was one of the last area schools to join the museum, but fortunately the administra- tion realized what a worthwhile cause it was. The information and beauty to be found in museums cannot be underesti- mated. Boston ' s interest in history was manifested culturally in its wide variety of museums. Painting, sculpture, textiles, and music were preserved in some of the finest museums in the country. The IVluseum of Fine Arts was the city ' s largest museum. Its specialties were Asiatic art and Impressionist paintings. There was also an extensive collection of Greei and Roman sculpture. These traditional exhibits were balanced by collections of musical instruments, 18th century furnishings and a history of print- making. The MFA was very aware of its relation to its patrons and its schedules, lectures and classes reflected his con- cern. This museum was a perennial fa- vorite because it was so accessible and exciting. Across the street and in direct contrast to the MFA was the Gardner Museum. It was a reconstruction of a Italian Renaissance palace and its insides were crammed from floor to ceiling with paintings, furniture, tapestries and sculpture. An especially unique museum was the Museum of Science. It was best l nown for its hands-on exhibits and chil- dren-sized experiments. Such additions as the Theatre of Electricity, the Hayden Planetarium, and live animal shows rounded out the complex. The museum was divided in sections such as Mathe- matics, Physics, Human Physiology, and Astronomy. The exhibits ranged from sci- entific experiments in action to short films on famous scientists. The Museum of Science was a favorite of children and adults alike. Another destination of many school field trips was the New England Aquarium. With its fabulous location on the Harbor, the Aquarium had exam- Dies of over 2,000 different types of sea ife. The large cylindrical tank in the mid- dle of the building hosted some of the largest fish in captivity. The Aquarium also offered a floating sea lion and dol- phin show, and whale watch trips in the summer. There were several special ex- hibits each year, such as the one on frogs and toads in 1983. Because of its close proximity to Faneuil Hail, the Aquarium was a favorite tourist attrac- tion. The Fogg Museum, the JFK Library, the Institute of Contemporary Art, the Chil- dren ' s Museum and The U .S.S. Constitu- tion rounded out the list of Boston ' s top museums.

The word xeonphobia spray-painted on a wall represents the fear and anger a large number of Bosto- nions feel about the Boston community. Xenophobia is the fear of strangers. It is the fear of the unknown. This fear is an inhabitant of the bacl alleys, the part benches that are homes to derelicts, the insipid hotel room in the combat zone. It is an insidious virus which thrives in the mind of a prejudiced fool. It is a scurri- lous creature which turns the call girl ' s shame, the unemployed man ' s embar- assment, and the homeless indigent ' s hunger into anger. The anger is con- tained at most times but it can explode into riots and city-wide confrontation, Boston, the idyllic postcard town, eajpted violently during the seventies over desegregation and forced busing. The mutual fear of whites and blacks would not be reconciled. But this prob- lem was merely the latest unleashing of a controversy first bred into the poor im- migrants at the turn of the century who were told by signs in shop windows and on pork fences that Italians need not appl y or Irish must keep off the Grass. Yet this side of Boston, the dart er side, was one seldom seen by the BC student. The hot spots were Quincy Market, Aku- Aku, The MFA, Copley Place, and all were scrupulously policed to keep mal- contents and undesirables away. The MBTA ' s Green Line transported business men and retired folks along with the stu- dents. It was on the Orange Line that one needed a cadre of Guardian Angels to feel safe. True, an element of con- cerned students dedicated themselves to fighting local injustices but it was too often world issues and the abuses of other countries which captured their best efforts. The need beyond the ever- so-well manicured lawns of Chestnut Hill was most often ignored. The true enemy of fear is knowledge. What can be understood can be ame- liorated. How ironic that so many of the students at so many of the educational institutions were misled by the promise of a high-paying job and forgot the altru- ism with which they came to school. How ironic that the darker side was left largely untouched by enlightened stu- dents. — T.H. McMorran The Side We Never See Makis latridis Boston 39 Fair P ay The Globe ' s here, was the famous saying that revolved around the Heights, and it only began to spell out he unique- ness of sports in Beantown. Boston con- tinued to be one of the better sports cities in the states, while it reigned as the sports kingdom of the Northeast. Whether it was the whirrr of a puck at a Bruins game or the crack of a bat at a crowded Fenway Park, the whish of a Larry Bird jumpshot, the uhhh of col- liding bodies at Sullivan Stadium, or the chant of Heisman in Chestnut Hill, Boston was the HUB when it comes to sports. Boston had all four major league sports clubs to call their own in conjunc- tion with the excitement of college sports, which heated up in many spots throughout the city. In addition to the more common sports, Boston possessed a uniqueness in sports ranging from crewing on the Charles to the main event of spring, the Boston Marathon. Now for the local football fanatic, one had a variety from which to choose. The Patriots provided a big league orga- nization for those interested primarily in professional football while the Boston College Eagles, — The Beast of the East , appeased the football fans look- ing for a rising foottxill power in the East. If hockey was one ' s pleasure, Boston offered a great range of teams from which to choose. The Boston Bruins high- lighted the list as the team that couldn ' t win in the playoffs. But, to a younger generation looking for a good time, col- lege hockey was very hot. The Beanpot was the spotlight of the season as it pit- ted Boston College, Boston University, Harvard and Northeastern in a battle for city pride. Fenway Park was the stage which set the tone for many long conversations at the dinner table about the Red Sox. From April to October, Kenmore Square was oblivious to all chatter except that which had to do with baseball. And who can forget the Celtics, the team who captivated the basketball world in 1984 with a thrilling seventh game victory to take home the coveted World Championship Trophy. Tickets were scarce as hoopla mania invaded North Station in the winter months. But what about the other sports which occurred in Boston? The streets were lined from Hopkinton to Boston in April as the greatest event in the East took place, the Boston Marathon. Run- ning became the overwhelming favor- ite sport among fitness and health en- thusiasts in the Boston area. One could not take a drive in the area without see- ing dozens of joggers and runners in all types of weather, doing what they loved to do most. Biking was also a major in- dependent sport in the Boston vicinity, especially with so many beautiful and scenic suburbs and countrysides that took one through farmland, mountains, and shorelines. Well, all this has been said about Bos- ton Sports, but what about the people who kept the sports in motion, thie fans? From a sold out Sullivan Stadium to an overcrowded Boston Garden, it was very apparent that the fans supported their teams 100%! Putting these factors together, they added up to a center of athletic unity, support, and success. When asked, How do you spell SPORTS? , the New Englander ' s response was B-O-S-T-O- N. — Keith Gnazzo 1 Makis latridis OKAGO MOSCOW THE MOVIE LOFT Pete Hillenbrand 0 Makis latridis Clockwise from above: a display of Boston ' s unique magazine; a hard-core BC fan — Bob Lobel of WBZ-TV; a radio station dedicated to rock ' n ' roll; a newsstand In Copley Sq. offers all tlie local magazines and news- papers.

This paper appealed to those students who were afraid they could not live without The New York Post or Scratch for Cash . A paper with a more artistic thrust was The Boston Phoenix. Always on the leading edge of music, art and style. Phoenix writers sought out the inane and the insane. Students who wished to expand their knowledge of contempor- ary fashions could turn to this weekly. A good review could mean a big break for a local band or artist. A uniquely bostonian publication was Boston IMagazine. The magazine was well known for its annual Best of Boston issue which reviewed the most interest- ing and exciting aspects of the city. Monthly feature articles looked in-depth at issues important to Boston residents. It is indicative of every large city to have a wide variety of media. Each form has its own audience and these are divided even more into specific segments. The communication leaders in Boston served their city, while also giv- ing its college population opportunities to become a part of the happenings for four years; and the students embraced them eagerly. — Colleen Seibert staff Photo Boston 45 Friendly Riv Clockwise from top left: BU ' s Marsh Chapel; the domed skyline of MIT; the entrance to Harvard Yard; BC competes with BU In rugby Boston. College. The two words de- fined each other in every sense of the words. It was a combination which was well recognized by most people throughout the cultured world. Defining the word college , not only referred to the Chestnut Hi T university but also the numerous other institutions which made the city of Boston a purified college town. Within a 60 mile radius of downtown Boston, there were 30 four-year col- leges, on outstanding figure for one city. The big names include, of course. Har- vard, MIT, Boston University, Boston Col- lege, but what about some of the lesser knowns such as Wheelock College or Curry College? These schools added to the enrichment of Boston ' s college life as well. The rivalry between the colleges across the city was an integral part of Boston. At BC, a sense of rivalry was evi- dent in the sport of hockey. It was most evident in February as the four Boston hockey powers clashed for Boston ' s most coveted prize, the Beanpot trophy. BC, BU, Harvard, and Northeastern faced-off in this annual war. The victor of this tournament was allowed to savor the supremacy of their school over the opposition for a full year. But, there was not always bad blood between the area schools. It was com- monplace to overhear students on the Chestnut Hill campus state, yeah, let ' s go visit Stevie over at Hahvahd tonight. Many a student travelled to Pine Manor for Thursday Night at the Pub too. Many schools tried to attract visitors from the other area schools by posting signs as to the upcoming events. Even in Boston students sometimes got the urge to take-off for a weekend and for a road trip . A favorite spot for BC students was the University of Ver- mont in the city of Burlington. In the win- ter especially, the new fallen snow attracted many anxious travellers (aside from the eighteen year old drinking age]. The city of Boston will continue its rich tradition of catering to the young peo- ple. It will continue to prosper as long as students still want to study at a place called Beantown. — Keith Gnazzo als Boston 47 mm r Sir ' 0 4 loston Is Mdrchliig By Words — Herbert A, Kenny Music — Theo N.

BC fans hoped that this was the year that would prove to be the best since the early 1940 ' s when the Eagles travelled to three major bowl games. In 1984, the Eagles looked forward to surpassing 1983 ' s 9-2 regular season record, winning another Lambert Trophy, playing in a major bowl, and who knew, maybe even win- ning the National Championship. 1984 was a special season because it was the senior finale for a 5 ' 9 three-quarter quarterback from Natick, Mas- sachusetts who, namely Doug Flutie, was one of top candidates to win the Heisman Trophy. BC 44 Western Carolina 24 In the opener against Western Caroli- na, the Eagles rolled to a 44-24 victory over the Division 1-AA school. BC jumped to an early lead which it never relinquished. Flutie had little trouble in throwing for 330 yards and four touch- downs, but some weaknesses were evi- dent in the contest as Western Carolina was able to move the ball fairly well. Flutie ' s fourth TD pass of the day equaled the BC career mark of 44, and Doug still had all season to surpass it. BC 38 Alabama 31 On September 8, the Eagles travelled down to the heart of college football, Birmingham, Ala- bama, to play the Crimson Tide. Trailing 31-14 after Kerry Goode ' s 99 yard kickoff Peter Klidaras 56 Sports return to open the second half, the Eagles received a brea k of sorts. The unstoppable Goode was stopped by I an injury and the Alabama offense sput- ! tered, Doug Flutie and the Eagle offense I went to work as Flutie ran for one touch- down and pitched off to Jinn Browne for ! another. With that, a field goal by Kevin Snow, and a rejuvenated defense, the Eagles and the Tide found themselves deadlocked at 31 with just over 5 min- utes left in the game. Tony Thurman ' s third interception of the day set up the game-winning drive, and Troy Strad- ford ' s 44 yard burst up the middle pro- vided the winning margin, BC 38 Ala- bama 31 , It was a comeback which will be remembered in Eagle history. BC 52 North Carolina 20 The next foe was supposed to be a formidable one in the Tar Heels of North Carolina, who were led by outstanding lineman Micah Moon, and flashy tail- back Ethan Norton. Sullivan Stadium and a national TV audience were awed at what occurred. When it was all said and done the Eagles hod erupted for a 52-20 win, in ore of thie most lopsided contests of BC ' s recent history. Flutie the Magician was on track as he com- pleted 28 of 38 passes for 354 yards and an incredible 6 touchdown passes. The Eagles at one point in the contest held a gaping 31-0 lead before Norton sparked the Tar Neel offense to manage 20 points of their own. The Eagles ended September with a 3- 0 record which included two victories over formidable opponents. The Eagles then had a three week layoff to climb up in the polls and to prepare for the Owls of Temple. BC 24 Temple 10 After the three week layoff, the Eagles hosted the Owls of Temple. The layoff affected the Eagles as evidenced by their dismal first half. It took the Eagle? almost 19 minutes before Kevin Snow put one through from 26 yards for a 3-0 BC lead. It was shortlived though as Temple charged back to take a 7-3 lead on Paul Palmer ' s 4 yard TD run. It appeared the Eagles would go into the locker room trailing, but Flutie showed his magic by hitting Gerard Phelan with a 51 yard Flood-Tip TD miracle and the Eagles led 9-7 at the half, Temple took a 10-9 lead early in the fourth quarter and the Eagles unbeaten mark seemed in trouble. But a two yard Steve Strachan touchdown run and a Dave Periera interception, which he re- turned 35 yards for a score, put all doubts to rest in this chippy affair. The Eagles were on to Morgantown with a 4- 0 record, coming out of this one with a 24-10 triumph. West Virginia 21 BC 20 As the undefeated and highly ranked Eagles travelled to Morgantown to take on the Mountaineers of West Virginia, memories lingered in BC minds how this team had ruined their two previous sea- sons with two impressive defeats of the Eagles. There were also memories of how Flutie had never beaten this team and in order for him to complete his storybook career, this victory would have to be a chapter, On the other hand. West Virginia had some advantages of their own. They had their third largest crowd in history and also they wanted revenge on the Eagles for stealing their Lambert Tro- phy the year before. But, the storybook season did not seem to be endangered as the Eagles showed their strengths by taking a 20-6 halftime advantage on a couple of Kevin Snow field goals, a Steve Strachan draw play TD run, and, of course, a Flu- tie TD pass. In the second half, things began to turn sour. A defensive mistake allowed WV quarterback Kevin White to hit Willie Drewer on a 52 yard bomb inside the (continued on p. 60] Sports 57 (continued from p, 56-57] BC 5. No worry though, BC still hod on 11 point lead of 20-9, But, Ron Wolfley put it over from the one and with one quarter remaining, the Eagles lead had di- minished to 20-15. The West Virginia defense stymied Flutie and the Eagle offense (19 yards total rushing on the day]. So the stage was set with the Mountaineers with the ball on their own 20. A star emerged on the drive as running back John Gay car- ried for much of the yardage on the drive, including the gamer, a five yard burst with 4:52 left. No panic, there was still time for Flutie magic. But, today it was not to be. Flutie did complete 21 of 42 passes for 299 yards and a touchdown, but he missed his final two passes and the Eagles dreams of an undefeated season had vanished. BC 35 Rutgers 23 Back at Alumni Stadium, the Eagles produced another subpar perfor- mance, but they managed to defeat the vastly improved Scarlet Knights from Rutgers. The Eagles took a 21-10 halftime edge as Flutie hit Troy Stradford, Kelvin Martin and Peter Casparillo for first half TD ' s. The second half started out well as Flutie rushed in from the one to make it 28-10. But Rutgers had weapons of their own and they dominated the rest of the second half. Newly converted quarter- back Eric Hochberg (23 51 249 yards] teamed up with great receiver Andrew Baker (12 catches 141 yards] on two key scoring drives and it was suddenly 28-20 BC. Andy Ryan 60 Sports The Eagles put to rest the critics as Ken Bell took it in from eight yards out to give the Eagles a 35-20 advantage, Rutgers could only manage a field goal in the late stages to complete a 35-23 score. Flutie watch: 21 30, 318 yards, 3 TD ' s passing, 1 rushing, 2 interceptions. Penn State 37 BC 30 Even though Doug Strang completed only 4 of 18 passes coming off the bench, he keyed the Penn State 37-30 victory over the BC Eagles. Things looked fine for the Eagles as Kem Bell broke it long for a 71 yard touchdown run and BC led 7-3. But BC ' s fortunes were shortlived as Penn State running of D.J. Dozier (143 yards, 1TD] and Steve Smith (126, 2) keyed a drive which put Penn State ahead for good 10-7. The Eagles ' s were scrapping from behind all day. It got worse as Strang connected for one of his big plays, a 42 yard scoring strike to Herb Bellamy; 17-7 PSU. BC couldn ' t score from in close and had to settle for o field goal and a 17-10 half- time disadvantage. Doug Flutie finally put it together under all the Nittany Lion pressure and the Eagles closed the gap to 29-23 with 9 minutes remaining. But, Jock Bicknell elected to go for a two-point conversion and their failure to convert seemed to take the wind out of the BC sails. Strang then put on his clinic as he fooled everyone with a 28 yard gain on third down and long which kept Doug Flutie (29 53, 447 yards, 1 TD, 2 in- terceptions] and company off the field. To moke matters worse, Dozier took it in from 39 yards out on the next ploy and it was now PSU 37 BC 23. Once agofn, Flutie gave BC hopes with his continued magic against Penn State and the Eagles only trailed by 7. But, Strang rushed for first downs on two key third down plays to make it BC ' s second loss in three weeks. BC 45 Army 31 The highlight of Flutie ' s final home gome at Alumni Stadium was some- thing to be remembered. It was on 18 yard pass from Flutie to Kelvin Martin which put Doug Flutie atop the list as the all-time total offense leader in colle- giate football history. Otherwise, it was a day of ups ana downs which saw a different brand of football for the New England fans, the wishbone. Quarterback Note Sassa- man (136 yards rushing] and key runner Rick Block tore apart the Eagles line all day to give BC defense fits. Army managed to close the gap with a two minute wishbone drill at the end of the first half and it was 28-14 BC. Army closed the gap to 38-31 with twelve min- utes left on a Jorvis Hollingsworth 10 yard run, but Flutie (19 29, 311 yards, 3 TD ' s] hit Kevin Martin (7 catches, 133 yards, 2 TD ' s, 45 yard TD punt return] from 17 yards out and the Eagles were 6-2 on the season. BC 24 Syracuse 16 It was a trek to Sullivan Stadium to ploy a team which had dashed BC ' s Fiesta Bowl hopes the previous year in the Carrier Dome; it was revenge; it was the Syracuse game. With a Harold Goyden TD run and a Don McAuley field goal, the previous season ' s nightmare was being relived, 10-7 Syracuse at the half. On a cold day which saw Flutie hove trouble passing (10 21 , 136 yards], it was the running gome which took control. Troy Strodford ' s five yard TD run put the Eagles ahead to stay 14-10. A Kevin Snow field goal and Kelvin Martin ' s 78 punt return for a score put the gome out of reach at 24-10. It was Flutie ' s running (81 yards] and the BC defense which keyed this 24-16 victory and a berth in the Cotton Bowl.

It was a ganne tt at lived up to its billing, and them some, It was probably one of thie greatest college football games in hiis- tory, It was a game which made Doug Flutie a national hero, and then some. Flutie started the show with two quick TD ' s and a 14-0 BC lead, and thoughts of no-contest lingered in BC minds. It was not to be. The defending champion Hur- ricanes battled back with their superstar Kosor (447 yards passing) and newly found sensation, running back Meivin Bratton (4 TD ' s). It was a game in which commentator Brent Musberger jokingly stated, The team that has it last will win this one. It seemed that team was Miami as Bratton scored his final TD of the day from one yard out to put Miami up 45-41 with just 28 seconds to go. After completing 2 of 3 to the Miami 48, Flutie (472 yards passing] had only :06 remaining on the clock, Enter once more the magic. It was a pass which was seen by most of the nation, and it skyrocketed Flutie into fame and made believers of all. The ball travelled 64 yards in the air and nestled itself in the arms of Gerard Phelan who snuck be- hind the Miami defenders in the end zone. There was no way to describe it in words. Flutie had done the impossible . . . once again. BC 45 Holy Cross 10 A sold out Fitton Field in Worcester, Mass. was on hand to witness Doug Flu- tie ' s final regular season college foot- ball gome. He had done it all, including becoming the top collegiate passer of all time. But, there was one more thing that Doug Flutie wanted to accomplish in his final collegiate game, and he did just that, connecting with brother Darren on a TD pass in the third quarter. The game was not an early romp as most fans expected. Holy Cross be- lieved they could pull the major upset, and when QB Peter Muldoon scored on a two yard burst with :32 left in the first half, making it 17-10 BC, the impossible seemed within reach. But, the second half was a different story for the Crusaders as they experi- enced the explosives of the BC offense. Troy Stradford raced in from 44 yards out and then it was Flutie to Flutie to make it 31-10 Eagles. The onslaught continued as Darren Flutie ran one in for his first career rushing TD and then Flutie [276 passing yards) connected on his third TD pass of the game, this one to Kelvin Mar- tin to make the final 45-10 BC. BC finished the season with an impres- sive 9-2 record and a ranking of 7th in the Associated Press poll. Doug Flutie flew out of Worcester and received his Heisman Trophy on the eve of the Holy Cross game.

The Volunteers, which had not lost a regular season game in three years, led 7-0 at the half but Joe Zabliski ' s recovery of a blocked punt set up Harry Connolly ' s tie-making touchdown and extra-point in the third quarter. Tennessee came right back to take a 13-7 lead, but Mike Holovak ended a 60-yard drive when he scored BC ' s sec- ond touchdown. However, Leahy elected to run Holovak for the extra point and Mike was stopped, and the score remained tied 13-13. Don Currivan blocked a Tennessee field goal in the fourth quarter, and this started BC on its winning drive, as two passes to Ed Zabliski from O ' Rourke got the ball to the Vol ' s 30-yard line, Two plays later, O ' Rourke, behind Hank Toc- zylowski ' s blo ck, ran 24 yards for the win- ning TD. Orange Bowl, Miami, Florida Janu- ary 1, 1943 Boston College 21 Alabama 37 This was a wild affair, as BC once led 14-0 on a pair of Hollovak TDs. Mike scored three that day, one on a 65-yard run another on a 34-yard sweep. After Alabama grabbed a 19-14 lead, Holovak ' s third TD, a two-yard plunge, and Connolly ' s PAT gave the Eagles a 21-19 lead. By this time, injuries had begun to pile up for BC (Mario Gianelli, one of the team ' s best linemen, broke his toe getting dressed for the game and never played] and Alaba- ma took the lead for good on a field goal. They soon had a 28-21 advantage and the Eagles missed their final chance when unable to score from the eight yard line in the fourth quarter. Tangerine Bowl, Orlando, Florida December 18, 1982 Boston College 26 Auburn 33 Eagles quarterback Doug Flutie put on a dazzling performance, complet- ing 22 of 38 passes for 299 yards and two touchdowns (he also scored on a five-yard run and accounted for a pair 68 Sports Photo courtesy of sports publicity Photo courtesy of sports publicity cont. from 68 of two-point conversions), but the Eagles ' furious second-half rally fell just short of victory. The Eagles scored on the first drive of the game, and then played tremendous defense, stopping the nationally ranked Auburn Tigers twice on drives Inside their own five-yard line without surrendering a touchdown. The Tigers, who had beaten Alaba- ma In their final regular season contest, used their blinding outside speed to score three TDs In the second period, however, and opened their lead to 33- 10 by the end of the third. Boston College ' s coaches and play- ers never gave up and battled back In the fourth quarter of this nationally- televised game which saw Flutle pitch- scoring passes to tight end Scott Nizoiek and wide receiver Brian Brennan in a last-ditch effort to win. Brennan caught seven passes for 149 yard and one TD in the game, but It was Flutle who was named Outstanding Offensive Player by the national broadcast crews. Liberty Bowl, Memphis, Tennessee December 29, 1983 Boston College 18 Notre Dame 19 Despite bitter 1 1 -degree temperatures (zero with the wind-chill factor), Flutle shined once again In post-season ac- tion, completing 16 of 37 passes for 287 yards and three touchdowns.

Alison Brooks r1 Peter Sarram Serving an Ace The men ' s tennis team at Boston Col- lege has a proud history and the 1984- 1985 season was no different. The stage was set and a squad compiled of undergrads was prepared to capture another Big East Crown, The 1984-85 edi- tion of the team was without the services of the 1983-84 Big East singles and dou- bles champion John O ' Connell, and also without senior Bill Kelly who de- parted from the team before the start of the season in September. So with two stars of the team no longer in uniform, what was to be expected of this new edition of young men? Accord- ing to the Boston College Men ' s tennis coach Mike MacDonald, This was the youngest team I ' ve ever had. He wasn ' t kidding. The layout of the team in- cluded two juniors, five sophomores, one freshman, and no seniors. The top rated players for the squad were Carlos Silva and Louis Nunez. Silva, first seed on the team, was a sophomore from Poto- mac, Maryland, while Nunez, second seed, was also a sophomore who hailed from Madeline, Columbia. These two also paired up for the number one doubles combination on the team. The number two doubles team was the combination of the co-captains Jim Garaventi and Paul Rolincik, Garaventi was a junior, with much tennis experi- ence, coming from Moorestown, New Jersey. In the other captain spot was Rolincik. He too was a junior. But his home was close to the B.C. campus hail- ing from Lexington, Massachusetts. These two men played extremely well together. They had much experience as a duo, having been a pair since fresh- man year. Rolincik and Garaventi teamed up in doubles as freshman to clinch the 1981 Big East Championship for the Eagles. The remaining four players on the squad came from diverse back- grounds. They were as ladened with tal- ent as the rest of the squad. Much depth was added by Bob Con- klin, a sophomore from Fairfield, Con- necticut, who had a solid year while he was a frosh. His solid game has added some experience to a team in which it was much needed. Newcomer Brian Bortnick added to the youth of the team, but also to the immense talent. Brian was a freshman who coach MacDonald said, is going to be a good one — a sleeper. Bortnick came from Chevy Chase, Maryland. Filling out the roster for the dedicated squad of racketeers were sophomores Chris Smith from Joliet, Illinois and Eric Weinheimer from Syracuse, New York. — Keith Gnazzo Alison Brooks Sports 71 1 Cross The 1984 editions of the men ' s and women ' s cross country teams had im- pressive campaigns, For the first time in Boston College history, and also the first time in New England history, both the men ' s and women ' s teams qualified for the NCAA Championships. The women ' s team experienced its best season by far, which was made evident by their record, Among the Eagles laureates included wins against Northeastern, UMass and Brown in a tri- meet. The ladies also claimed second place finishes in the National Catholic Championships, the Greater Boston Championships, and the BIG EAST Championships. To culminate the com- petitions, the Eagles took first in the New England Championships. The team was led by Junior Michele Hallet whose successes included a course record 17:52 in the Greater Bos- ton Championship. Other key runners on the squad were Ann Fallon, Virginia Conners, Mary Helen Peterson, Sharon Willis, Jennifer Weeks, and Therese Doucette who aside from Hallet were all selected for All-New-England. Coach Jack McDonald was excited about their qualifying for NCAA ' s. It ' s like the Rose Bowl for us. It guarantees national ranking and that ' s the first time for Women ' s Cross Country at BC. But, he noted, we have done a lot of things this year that we have never done be- fore. The men also conducted an impres- sive campaign as they made their way into the NCAA tournament. The highlight of the season came at the New England Championships as the men battered everyone in the tourney, with their closest oppositions being Yale, who was thirteen points behind. The Eagles were led by Todd Re- nehen, Fernando Braz, Joe Rocha, John Clopeck and Paul Plissey for the year. Jack McDonald was very pleased with the BC success in the cross country de- partment last year. The teams exceded all expectations and went on to the most productive campaign in BC history. Geoff Why 72 Sports Sports 73 Men ' s Golf 0 Geoff Why Chris Hanley On the Links The 1984-85 edition of tl e BC Golf Team came back with much experi- ence. Ten lettermen returned for the sea- son. A feeling of confidence surfaced among the veterans. Mentor Eddie Car- roll, BC golf coach since 1961 and Assis- tant Athletic Director for the 1984-85 ac- ademic year, was confident about the new team which derived an 8-6 record from 1983-84. The 1984-85 squad was led by senior Captain Phil Callahan. Through his natu- An incoming fresli- man golfer doesn ' t need time to season, lil e most footboii players do ' ral talent and devotion, Phil became the number one golfer at Boston Col- lege. Ranking behind Phil as the key golfers at the Heights were: Chris Van- der Velde, Paul Buckley, Mike Hayes, Bob Doherty, Jim Devlin, Mike Sherry and Peter Collins. The only newcomer to this group was Doherty as he was a standout freshman who held his own on the team, Boston College was among the top 5 teams in New England over the past few years. Callahan stated in the fall, This spring should be no exception! On the competitive side, Boston College played such top name teams as Brown, Dartmouth, Harvard, and MIT. BC also competed in a number of tournaments, such as the Big East Tourney, the ECAC tournament, and the New England tour- nament. With his job as Assistant Athletic Direc- tor, Carroll could not give as much time as he would have liked to the team, therefore Brad Vermeulen served as the organizer of the team. Though Carroll was not a golf pro he did assist the play- ers with the mental aspects of the game as best he could. Carroll felt that age didn ' t matter in the sport of golf as it did in a sport such as football. An incoming freshman golfer doesn ' t need time to season, like most football players do, said Carroll. The Boston College golf team found its home at the Charles River Country Club located in Cambridge. — Keith Gnazzo Geoff Why 4 Sports Under the direction of first-year coochi Chiorlene Morett, the Boston College Women ' s Field Hockey Team com- pleted the season with a successful 1 3-4- 1 record. Headed by the high-scoring duo of Lynn Frates and Linda Griffin, this was a team to be reckoned with. The team got off to a rough start as the Eagles suffered two tough overtime loss- es to the likes of ever-powerful UConn, and Springfield, who they met later In ttie ECAC ' s. So, after 7 games, the ladies were at a 3-3-1 clip, on about the same pace as the 9-8-2 1983 squad. BC became a force as they ripped off victories In ten of their final eleven matches. In the middle of that streak, goaltender Cathy O ' Brien registered three consecutive shutouts over the likes of Northeastern, Bentley and Rhode Is- land. The Eagles had won eight of their last nine as they headed into the ECAC ' s looking for victory and more important- ly, a berth in the NCAA ' s Final Twelve. Morett ' s statement, The ECAC tourna- ment was definitely the highlight of the season, was solidly backed up, as the Eagles got revenge on Springfield 3-2, and then defeated Ursinus 3-0 to cap- ture the 1984 ECAC Championship in front of a home crowd at Chestnut Hill. It was a storybook season: The Eagles had a new coach, they had only Tour losses, they were nationally ranked, and they had just won the ECAC ' s. The next logical step in the progression was a berth in the NCAA tournament. But, it was not to be, as Virginia was given the final playoff spot, a team which BC had beaten 2-1 in their opener. Morett stated, We were definitely dis- appointed by not making the NCAA ' s, buT I am very proud of the women ' s achievements this year. We ' ll just have to set higher goals next year. They had to set those goals without Lynn Frates, who led the team with 14 goals. She was lost to graduation along with reserve goalkeeper Nancy Gon- salves. But, the return of Linda Griffin was something to look fonvard to. Gnffin nailed home 7 goals and assisted on 15 others to complete the year with 22 points. Other top scorers who returned were: Lori Kelfer (5 goals 8 assists 13 points], Cecilia Moreno (7-1-8) and Shannon Murphy (5-1-6). The backbone of the defense, goal- keeper Cathy O ' Bnen, also returned to the squad. O ' Bnen was impressive in 1984 as she obtained an impressive 1.16 goals against average, while register- ing 6 shutouts. when Morett was asked as to her overview of the 1984 season, she re- sponded, Above all, the team now knows they ' re winners; they feel they can play with the best. — Keith Gnazzo Peter Klidaras 76 Sports Women ' s Soccer Ever since BC implemented a women ' s soccer program, ttie quality and caliber of the play, as well as he players, improved each year. Under the guidance of new head coach Suzanne Kaplan, the women were scheduled to compete against many of the top soccer teams in the United States. Among these top teams included 2 ranl ed UConn, 3 UlVlass, 4 Colorado College and 5 ranked Cortland State. After losing two tough overtime games to UVM and UConn, the women jumped right bock on their feet to begin their procession to the top of the ladder, in hopes of making the N.C.A.A. tourna- ment and their ultimate goal — Ihe fin- al four in ' 84. The teams first great victory came in early September at the Cortland State Invitational Tournament. Battling three top notch teams in two days, the women Eagles were honored with the first place trophy. Under the leadership of co-captains Kathy Brophy and Peggy Fleming, the women continued to grow and learn together to produce a top ranked na- tional team. The time has come for us to play so let us take a minute to pray. Lord help us do the best we can, and go real hard until the end ' (C. D ' Entremont] Anchoring the defense throughout the season were Senior goalkeeper Kathy Brophy and the unbeatable Chris D ' E- ntremont. Juniors Patty Hill, Karyn Hesse and Sophomore Maria Montouri all con- tributed to make one of the strongest backfields in women ' s soccer today. Performing in the midfield spots were: Lynne Collins, Peggy Fleming, Jenn Fitz- patrick and Betsy Ready. Senior wingers Cathy Murphy, Ann Porell and striker Martha MacNamara took care of the scoring opportunities. Seven of the team ' s varsity players were departing seniors. Their team spirit and leadership earned the veteran team to a most memorable season. This team not only had fun on the field, but they also enjoyed their friendships off of the field. It made no difference if you were the number one player on the team or the twenty-third. In each others ' eyes everyone was equal. They were a team of hard work and fun. And a team any athlete would want to iDe a part of. — Peggy Fleming (Co-captain) Andy Ryan 78 Sports Sports Publicity 80 Sports Women ' s Tennis The 1984-85 edition of the women ' s tennis team at Boston College was something special. f?elying on freshmen in four of the ten spots on the varsity roster, the team had o questionable out- lool . But, any questions were laid to rest by an impressive fall campaign for the Eagle netwomen as they posted a flaw- less 8-0 record. The spring lool ed promising as the Eagles closed out the fall season with a Second Place finish at the Big East Championships in Syracuse, and then a victon at the New England Cham- pionships in Vermont. The Eagles were paced by, of course, their number one seed, who happened to be the unbeatable junior Katie Molumphy, who posted an impressive 24-4 record in the fall season. Included in those merits, Molumphy copped the Big East and New England individual titles. The next two seeds were freshmen, but they didn ' t play as though they were newcomers to the college courts. Amy Richardson and Lisa Rosamilia com- bined for an incredible 39-7 record, and they both captured victories in their flights in both the Big East tourney and the New England ' s. The fall season went extremely well for the Eagles as their closest match came against Dartmouth. Even though the score was 5-4, the Eagles had gone 5-1 in the singles part of the match so when the doubles play started, the ladies already hod the victory wrapped up. But, the Eagles success did not rely on just the top three ladies, The rest of the squad combined for a record of 58-27 to round out the fall success of the Bos- ton College ' s women tennis team. Rounding out the top six seeds for the Eagles at the end of the fall season were Julie Walsh, Heidi Kunichika, and Nanett Hansen. Nanett had an unblemished 6- 0 record in singles competition, She also happened to be the elder stateswoman of the team as she was the only senior on the squad. Hansen served as a responsi- ble captain during the 1984-85 season. Christine Callahan and Lynn Christ- man led the way for the Eagles in the doubles competition as they won the Second Doubles Flight in the New Eng- land tournament. Howard Singer continued his success as mentor of the Women ' s Tennis team at Boston College. With the best autumn of his college coaching career. Singer ' s overall record at BC blossomed to an impressive 43-16 record. After a tremendous fall season. Singer and his women ' s team looked forward to an even more successful spring of 1985. — Keith Gnazzo Sports 81 82 Sports Soccer After beginning the season witt an anennic1-5-1 record, thie Boston College men ' s soccer resurrected itself, going 6- 3-2 in tlieir final games to finish at a respectable 7-8-3. Coach Ben Brewster summed up this upswing finish by stating, We played two seasons. We were 1-5-1 in the first and 6-3-2 in the second. The key game to the team ' s turnaround was the 2-1 de- feat of rival Harvard. He said, We really mode the most of our chances in this gome; we played very timely soccer, Brewster was extremely happy with the team ' s turnabout by stating, We could ' ve quit after our tough start, but the guys didn ' t and they gelled into a good unit. Victories along the comeback trail in- cluded wins over Harvard, Merrimack, Vermont, Northeastern, Holy Cross, and BU. The only poor performance in the second half of the season was at the hands of Big East power Providence, who thrashed the Eagles 3-0. In the scoring department, the Eagles were led by injury-riddled Steve Masiel- lo, who notched 6 goals in only 10 games of action, Co-coptain Paul Con- nors finished second in team scoring by netting 4 goals to go along with 2 assists to finish with 10 points. Moving to the department of defense, the goaltending duties were split by Eric Hasbun and Mike Wood. Hasbum ployed the first part of the year and wound up 4-6-1 with a 1 .69 Goals Against Aver- age (GAA), while Wood came on in the latter stages of the campaign to post a 3-2-2-mark with a 1.04 GAA. The Eagles had outstanding years from many players, especially Eric Wise and Eric Brown on the defensive aspects of the game. Others who garnished praise for their performances were Jacob Lehrer, Scott Jones, and co- captains Connors and Ed Capobianco. Brewster felt the losing start was good for the team in a way. He said, Most of these guys on this team had never ex- perienced losing. I feel like this team was similar to Jack Bicknell ' s first as coach at BC. His team was 1-5, then turned around to finish up at 5-6. Hope- fully our future will be as successful as the football team ' s. — Keith Gnazzo Peter Klidaras Sports 83 Makis latridis Sports 85 Andy Ryan Since Boston College was a Division One school In major college athletics, many superior high school athletes didn ' t even get a chance to shov their talents on the teams at this university. But most people did not realize that much of that pool of talent participated In in- terschool athletics known as intramurals, In the fall of 1984-85, the number of students who were a part of the Intra- mural program numbered 2674 strong. Including men and women. From an amazing 862 participants in Men ' s Bas- ketball and 712 members in Touch Foot- ball to a miniscule 16 participants in the Field Goal Kicking Contest, Boston Col- lege had its share of intramural athletes. The intramural athlete had the unique mixture of taking his her sport seriously and also having a good time doing it. For instance, how many non-serious athletes would get up at 6:00 AM once a week for a hockey game. Keeping this in mind, one had to believe that these people were serious about their intra- mural team. On the other hand, these teams did not run wind sprints and hold vigorous practice sessions as the Varsity Teams did, Speaking of football, the 1984-85 fall season boasted 51 teams, with such wacky names as Jerry ' s Kids and the Rat Packers. But, these teams were not wacky on the field. Out of the 24 teams which qualified for the playoffs, 4 of them ventured in undefeated. They were Bloke ' s Revenge, Spread Eagles, Thrust, and the Dwad Squad. In the tour- nament itself, the undefeated Dwad Squad battled its way into the finals to face a rugged team known as the Gamecocks (who posted a 7-1 regular season record]. November 18, 1984 was the date and Alumni Field was the site as the underdog Gamecocks shut out the unbeaten Dwad Squad 10-0, The 1984 Coed Softball League had 26 teams numbering 429 participants. The Jungle Survivors did just that during the regular season, finishing with the only unblemished record in the league. The Jungle Survivors had no trouble reaching the Championship Game where they met inter-division foe Marvin and the Swaggiers. But, the Survivors couldn ' t stay alive in the finals as they were dominated 18-3 by the victorious Swaggiers. The Women ' s Volleyball League end- ed up with 9 teams, of which Marvena and the Swagglets finished the regular season with a perfect 14-0 record. Their main competition would be the Fig Newtons, who finished the season at 14- 2, But the Swagglets polished off the Fig Newtons In the semi-finals 2 games to 1 on the road to a 3-0 victory over the Mod Squad in the fi nals. — Keith Gnazzo Sports 87 Geoff Why Coming off a disappointing 11-16 record in 1983-84, the Boston College women ' s basketball team looked to make a significant improvement during thie 1984-85 season. This optimism was based upon sever- al factors. One was the return of four startersfrom the 1983-84 team, including juniorforward Sally Madeira who led the Eagles in scoring and rebounding in the previous season. Also returning were seniors Biz Houghton and Jane Haub- rich, and sophomore Pam Thornton. Five other players also returned to the squad for the 1984-85 season. Increas- ing BC ' s potential for success was the addition of BU junior transfer Morie Grant and Freshman Ann O ' Doy and Mary Gervais. O ' Doy a 5 ' 7 point guard from Connecticut, was named to the Big East ' s pre-season all freshman team. Even with all the laureates, the ladies still had to put the ball through the hoop on the court. At the time of press, the Eagles were an 11-5 squad with a 5-2 mark in the Big East, The Eagles jumped out to a 3-0 start with victories over foes such as Brown, UMass and the University of New Hamp- shire. Next it was on the the University of Detroit Classic against some nationally ranked teams. The Eagles lost the open- er to UDetroit 66-48, but bounced back to take third place with a 55-47 win over Cheyney State. The Eagles split their final two games before Big East play to have a 5-2 record going into league competition. They trounced Harvard 75-49 but lost a heartbreaker to BU 68-67, despite a tremendous 20 point performance by O ' Doy who led BC scorers with a 12.5 average. After a win over UConn and one over Northeastern, the Eagles were awakened to the big time, as they were destroyed by highly touted Penn State, 85-43. BC upped their record to 10-3 with victories over St. John ' s, Providence and Syracuse. But, that streak was ended as the Eagles lost in Philadelphia to the league-leading Villanova Wildcats. ' Nova ' s 57-50 victory gave BC its first conference loss. Heartbreak stuck once again as the Panthers from Pittsburgh hit a last-second jumper to give the Panthers a 53-52 vic- tory over the hard-luck Eagles. After the loss to Pitt, the Eagles did come back and soundly whip George- town 59-50, to have a 5-2, 11-5 record as the book went to press. The Eagles looked for continued suc- cess throughout the 1984-85 season, to finish up with an impressive campaign. — Terence Connors 88 Sports Basketball Peter Klidaras After coming off a njgged 18-12 sea- son mired witin controversy end strug- gles, the outlook for the 1984-85 cam- paign was not ail that positive. Add that to the fact that BC v as losing its leading scorer and rebounder. Jay IVlurphy [19.8 points per game and 7.3 rebounds per game] and also the ever consistent Martin Clark (10.8 ppg, 6.4 rpg] and BC was picked to finish between fifth and seventh in the Big East. Michael Adams (17.3 ppg), Stu Primus (7.0 ppg) and Roger McCready (9.5 ppg) would have to pick up the scoring slack which would be missed from the two leaving veterans. But, that factor had to be diminished slightly as senior Primus was declared academically in- eligible for the first five games. BC had to look for a new combination. But, on the I ighter side, the Eagles had made some decent recruits from the off- season. One of the keys was junior col- lege transfer, Trevor Gordon, who would be the Eagles ' giant ' at 6-9. His presence would allow Roger McCready to move back to his more natural position of for- ward, after battling for an undersized year In the middle at 6-5. Out of the Jay Murphy mold came Skip Barry, a 6-7 forward who had the potential to shoot the nets out of a basketball hoop. BC ' s two other recruits included 6-8 forward Tyrone Scott who was known as a ieaper and rebounder, and the pesky little guard from Providence, Rhode Island, Jamie Benton, who was In the moid of John Bagley. The starting lineup was to consist of four veterans and the new man in the middle. The guard combination of cap- tain Adams and the speedy Dominic Pressley was one of the quickest in the country. The forward line would be McCready and senior Terence Tailey. McCready was a smart player inside who always knew where the basket was and how to draw the foul. Tailey, on the other hand, was rot known for his scoring but for his defensive work. He was a scrapper, who always gave his all, game in and game out. In the middle Gordon was the presumed starter with 6-8 sophomore Troy Bowers to see a lot of playing time off the bench. The Eagles opener went as expected as they routed their annual early season foe, the New Hampshire Wildcats 86-63. Adams darted around the court to pour in 24 points while the impressive McCready added 23. An inspiring per- formance was given by starting guard Pressley, who netted 10 points, grabbed 8 boards and dished out 5 assists. But, the Eagles would get a n early season test as they went to the Garden to take on the highly touted Demon- Deacons of Wake Forest and the ACC. The speedy backcourt of Adams and Pressley was good for 35 points and they helped the Eagles overcome a second- half deficit and win the game 82-76. Another star emerged from the contest, as freshman Barry proved he was a shooter, dumping in 12 points, mostly from the outside. The Eagles had a big win under their belts and they traveled to Brown for their next contest. Tailey led the way on the boards for the second straight game with 10 to go along with his 11 points. Adams and Pressley this time combined for 40 points to lead the offensive attack as the Eagles scored 90-70. It was home to Roberts for their opener to take on Stonehill. The Eagles had little trouble in defeating Stonehill 98-71 as Dominic Pressley netted 19 points for the second straight game. Pressley was averaging 17.0 ppg after the first four after only scoring 4.4 the previous year. His newly found offensive output bright- ened the hopes for the 4-0 Eagles. Another bright spot for BC was the inspir- ational shoottng of freshman Benton who showed his scoring ability by sink- ing 10 points. BC ' s next game was against surprising Rhode Island. The Eagles won this one in usual fashion but did now show the flair that they were capable of. It was on uneventful 70-50 win with many stretch- es of scorelessness throughout the gome. McCready led the way with 19 points. Traditional rivals were always tough teams to beat, no matter who had more talent. Such was the case against Holy Cross as the Eagles hod to come from behind to defeat the Crusaders 85-63 in a game which was closer than the score indicates. Adams and Pressley con- tinued their teamwork for 37 more points to lead the Eagle offense. This was also an important day as Stu Primus came back to the lineup to net 6 points, but more importantly, he would be the sixth Sports 91 (continued from page 91] man for the remainder of the season. Trevor Gordon had his first double fi- gures game, scoring 10 points and also adding to his experience in the middle which he would need when Big East play began. The Eagles had one more game before they travelled to San Diego for the Cabrillo Classic and their second true test of the season. The victim was Randloph-Macon as the Eagles completely annihalated them 87-43. Barry once again produced scoring in double figures for the fourth time in the young season. Gordon netted his season-high 13 points and the Eagles were 7-0 heading out west. Critics believed that the Eagles would finally fall from the unbeatens in this Christmas tourney. The opener, against highly rated Michigan State, proved to be a thriller with Eagles pulling it out 82-78. Michael Adams ' clutch play was key as he had 19 points and 5 assists. Adams garnered tournament MVP honors as he had 23 points and 6 assists in the championship victory over TCU 92-75. Roger McCready had a superb game, scoring a season-high 31 points to lead the way. Were the Eagles for real? Well they were 9-0 as they headed for their biggest challenge. The Big East. BC opened at RoPerts against the Friars from Providence and downed them 67-55. McCready was high man once again with 16 points and the now consistent Barry added 12. It was time for the real test as the Eagles travelled to the nation ' s capitol to challenge unbeaten and number one ranked Georgetown. Fouls mired the Eagles but they stayed with this Hoya team causing an overtime session. BC couldn ' t get the lead in OT and the Hoyas barely avoided the upset, 82-80.

A I nine point second half lead dwindled at ;the hands of Pearl Washington and the Eagles were 10-2 with a disappointing 64-58 loss to Syracuse, The Eagles seemed to be a different club as they had trouble at home de- feating Seton Hall, 69-66 in a game which saw the ' waterbug ' Adams score 24 points to lead the Eagle offense, The next three games proved dis- 1 astrous for the Eagles, as they dropped them all, including an unheard of loss to Pitt at Roberts Center, Villanova clawed the Eagles in Philly 85-66, as BC suffered its worse loss in over a year. Next it was to the Garden again to take on second- ranked Saint John ' s of the Queens. BC squandered a big second-half lead only to fall down again 66-59 in front of o national television audience. The low- point of the season came on January 21st against Pitt. BC saw a 13 point second-half lead evaporate as fresh- man Charles Smith scored 27 points, 19 from the charity stripe, to set a Big East record. BC lost 61-55 to drop to 11-5 and 2-5 in the Big East. But, the Eagles did not fold, running off a string of five straight victories culminat- ing with a win over Syracuse. Along the way, victories came over UConn (an OT thriller], Hartford, Northeastern and Pro- vidence. The Syracuse game topped them all. BC went into its usual trend, taking a 7 point second-half lead and sicwiy letting it slip away. This time Syra- cuse took the lead 66-65 with under a minute to play. It seemed over when Rony Seikaly went to the line with :06 left in the game. He missed the front end of a one-and-one end Michael Adams was miraculously fouled with one tick left. Adams pleased the 10,436 fans as he hit two free throws to throw the Garden into a frenzy 67-66. Georgetown was coming to town end the Eagles were ready for the team that had now lost 2 straight Big East games. The Eagles rallied from on 11 point deficit to pull within one, but it would not hold as the Hoyas took com- mend and defeated the Eagles 78-66. The Eagles were 16-6, 5-6 in the Big East as the season went down the homestretch. The NCAA tournament was a good possibility as was the 20 win plateau. The Eagles had once again responded to their role as underdog with an impressive regular season. Only time would tell what would happen in the post-season. — Keith Gnazzo Makis latridis Sports 97 Makis latridis The men ' s track team, as the women ' s, was anchored by supportive coach, Jack [Track] McDonald. Mc- Donald brought back a mixture of veterans and new blood Into the 1984- 85 season with bright optimism. The team was led by senior Craig Coffey, who led the team in spirit as well as demonstration. One of the high- lights of Coffey ' s final campaign was the Greater Boston Championships as he broke the point total In his victorious pentathalon performance. Coffey scored 3,661 points breaking the record set the previous year by, you guessed it, Coffey himself. Coffey also excelled in the 60 yard hurdles and the mile relay. The big men of the Eagles track team were just that; BIG Jim Kenney was the key Eagle who soared in the weight throw, while senior football full- back Jim Browne did a respectable job with the shot put. Ray Hawkins, a sophomore, was BC ' s specialist In the jumps, as he com- peted in both the long and triple jumps. As for the runners, the Eagles were led by John Clopeck, who copped the 1984 Greater Boston Championship and New England Championship in the tv o-mile event. Also aiding in the cause were Paul Plissey (long dis- tance], Rob Davis (sprints] and Ross Muscato (sprints].

It was a team whiichi had captured ttie Greater Boston Track and Field Cham- pionships for the first time the previous year, But, what was McDonald to expect for the 1984-85 season at Boston College. Well, for starters, McDonald spoke high- ly of the franchise, Leslie Freeman and Janice Reid. Freeman, a junior, was mainly a sprin- ter, as she specialized in the 220 yard dash, the 60 yarder and 880 relay. Reid ran the individual 440, anchored the relay 880 and ran the mile relay, all as a sophomore, But, no team was complete without a leader and that lady was captain Susan Goode, Not only was Goode captain of the forces, she was also the New Eng- land pentathalon champion. Other key contributors were Beverly Luken (sprints), Therese Doucette (long distance), Mary Mooney (long dis- tance), Mary Helen Peterson (long dis- tance), Carolyn Conigliaro (long dis- tance), Lisa Wilkins (long jump), Marybeth Paul (high jump) and Virginia Connors (long Distance). One of the highlights of the 1984-85 season was the women ' s defense of the Greater Boston Championships as they edged out Boston University 88,5 to 80.5 on the last day. After winning that co- veted prize, the women looked forward to the New England ' s, the Big East and the NCAA Championships. 102 Sports Track and Field 104 Sports The 1984-85 season for the Boston Col- lege wrestling teem looked promising under the guidance of second-year mentor Joseph Guinta.

As for members, the team consisted of four seniors, John Hanlon, Bill Kaliff, Dan Murner, and Carl Traylor; two juniors, Robert Fitzgerald and Joseph Traggert, five sophomores, Mark DeAngelis, Thomas Giachetto, Ted Hughes, Eric Sherbacow, and John Zogby, and also two freshmen. Bill Gallucci and Tim Mar- tins. The three keys to the success of this team relied on three top seniors: Hanlon, Mumer, and Traylor. Hanlon, in the 167 pound class, had quite a successful his- tory. He had already been a two-time New England Champion and a three- time NCAA qualifier. Hanlon had done all this in his first three years. He posted an 18-2 record in 1983-84 and was also the New England All-Star Meet Winner. Another key was Murner. Mumer par- ticipated in the 177 pound weight class and he posted a 14-5-2 record in 1983- 84. In 1983, Mumer also had a great year as he was crowned the New England Champion. The other major veteran on the 1984- 85 squad was Traylor. Traylor posted an 18-2 record in his junior year participat- ing in the 150 pound weight class. Traylor also won the New England All-Star Meet. But, three men does not a wrestling team make, and BC was no exception. This team hod eleven other returning let- termen who proved their value the pre- vious season as the Eagles copped third place in the post-season tournament. Along with all the experience on the squad, the Eagles received two top re- cruits from the high school ranks. Tim Martins entered Boston College coming off a 30-0 senior season which included the Idaho State High School Champion- ship in the 142 pound weight class. The other blue-chipper was William Galluc- ci who posted a 25-2 senior season. His merits included the New Jersey High School Regional Championship for the 134 pound weight class. With a lot of experience and a good influx of new talent, the 1984-85 edition of the Wrestling Team at Boston College looked to be a strong one at the Heights. — Keith Gnazzo Makis latridis Sports 105 The Boston Colle ge Women ' s Ice Hockey Team had come a long way. Over the past ten years, the lady Eagles had grown to become a fine addition to the great athletic tradition at the Heights. Led by senior tri-captains Judy Ahem, Kerry O ' Connell, and Liz White, the 1984- 85 women ' s team had a large number of new, talented players joining the re- turning skaters, The 1984-85 team was coached by senior Robert O ' Brien assisted by Albert Wislalka Their ' solid ' first year coaching had brought tremendous enthusiasm to this very young team. The defense was led by Kerry O ' Con- neil. Over her three year tenure at BC, Kerry had matured Into a powerful point with excellent defensive instincts. Joining Kerry on defense were returning players Judy Ahem and Kris Smith, both moving to the defensive line from the wing posi- tion. Joining the veterans at the defen- sive end were juniors Lisa Kiiey and Anne Marie Linehan and also three quick talented freshmen. The forward line was one of the strongest the Eagles had In the past few years. Joining four year veteran Liz White with newcomers Peggy Fleming and Linda Griffin proved to be a great move made by Coach O ' Brien. The three ska- ters learned very quickly to skate together mixing Liz ' s talent and experi- ence with Peggy and Linda ' s fancy stick work and power. Coach O ' Brien also made a valuable move by sending Sheryl Wakins to the forward line. Her speed and strong desire to score fit in well with the front line style. The 1984-85 team alternated be- tween sophomore goalies Jackie Caine and Sue Hughey. Both girls showed tremendous natural ability and instincts and throughout the season both goalies made spectacular saves that proved them both to be very capable shot- blockers. The highlight of the season was the annual Beanpot. The teams from North- eastern, Harvard, Boston University and Boston College played in the annual tourney which proved to be very fast and exciting to all those involved. — Judy Ahern Makis latridis 106 Sports Hockey Men ' s BC hockey had just enjoyed one of its most productive Seasons in 1983-84, compiling a 26-13 record, by far its win- ningest season in a long time. There were still questions despite their overall success. Injuries hampered BC through- out the season. Bob Sweney, a junior, missed 16 games due to injury. Sweeney was the MVP of BC ' s 1983 Beanpot championship team and was sorely missed at times. A big step was taken with the formation of the seven team Hockey East and its coalition with the WCHA, BC was faced with its toughest schedule ever and offense would be a key in matchups against the midwestem clubs. The focus of recruiting would be to land some offensive minded for- wards, and they went out and got them. Leading the pack was Ken Hodge Jr. of St. John ' s Prep, along with Billy Kopecky, Austin Prep, Dan Shea, BC High, John Devereaux, Scituate High, Chris Staple- ton, New Prep, Michael Gervasi, Weymouth North, and defenseman Joe McEachern of Division I champion Matignon. It was hoped that this was the crop that would bring the national championship. BC began Its season with six returning seniors, led by captain Tim Mitchell and alternate David Livingston, who were linemates along with Dan Shea. The Eagles got off to an Inauspicious start, standing at 7-5 after twelve games, while suffering two humllating defeats at the hands of the Golden Gophers of Minnesota, Outscored 12-4, the Eagles were not producing offensively and de- fensively they were becoming very porous, Despite scoring 61 goals (5.0 goals per game], the maroon and gold surrendered 54, The highlights of the first two months were an opening night vic- tory over the Huskies of Northeastern, a 6-3 victory over BU, and a 5-0 whitewashing of Providence, Over the course of the next month, the Eagles began to gell. The team was playing very balanced hockey, both offensively and defensively. The goal- tending combo of Scott Gordon, Sean Real and Joe Donovan was superb. They posted a 10-1-1 record over the next twelve games, giving them a 17-6-1 record overall along with a Hockey East leading 15-6 and 30 points. Since suffer- ing an 8-4 loss to Minnesota-Duluth, the Eagles were 6-2 including a victory over the same MInnesota-Duluth club, win- ning 4-2, Highlights of the season up to this point were coach Len Ceglarski ' s 500th career win, a ranking of 4th nationally and the emergence of the second line, centered by Ken Hodge Jr, flanked by junior Doug Brown and soph- omore Kevin Stevens, The major dis- appointment was a last-place finish in 108 Sports  4 r 0 Peter Klidaras Sports 109 Hockey 112 Sports (continued from page 108] the Beanpot, as the Eagles were eaten up 4-2 by the Northeastern Huskies and ttien edged 6-5 by Harvard in the con- solation contest. The strength of the team thus far had been its uncanny ability to put the pick in the net. The team was averaging an incredible 5.9 gpg. Defensively they were solid, allowing on the average 3.8 gpg. Over the last 20 games, BC had posted a 16-3-1 record and the goals against had dropped to about 3,4 per game, National ranking and the Bean- pot were now afterthoughts and the re- mainder of the season (and postsea- son?] laid ahead. The similarities of the two teams, 1984 and 1985, had been mentioned. The 1985 version seemed to be more offen- sive-minded, more aggressive along the boards, and, at times hungrier than past teams. In recent years BC had been a team that relied on defense and backchecking. The concentration of offense let loose weapons like Scott Har- low (27 goals — 29 assists — 56 points] and linemate Bob Sweeney (26-25-51] as well as fellow junior Doug Brown (25- 26-51, 5 power play goals, 5 short- handed goals]. Two freshman came into their own as collegiate scorers and two more were on the rise. The freshman were led b y Hodge (15-37-52] and Dan Shea (13-16-29]. These two played on the power play as well as the first W o lines all year long. Billy Kopecky (6-10-16] and Chris Stapleton (6-6-12] provided coach Ceglarski with a steady check- ing line centered by senior Jim Heriihy (8-13-21]. The consistent play of the four lines had been a welcome blessing for the coach, who in previous years felt fortunate when he had two healthy lines. With the addition of the fresh recruits, playing time had been very difficult to distribute. The defense was anchored by Domi- nic Campedelli (4-36-40], Bob Emery (2- 8-10] and John McNamara (3-5-8], all juniors, as well as seniors George Boud- reau (1-2-3] and Bruce Sizzle Milton (2-10-12]. Junior Michael Barron (2-3-5] scored the first two goals of his collegi- ote career and played steadily on the backline. Sophomore John McLean (2- 7-9], although inconsistent at times, was beginning to come into his own when academics forced him out for the re- mainder of the season. Sophomore David Whyte and freshman Joe McEachem played well at times, but were inconsistent due to lack of experi- ence, Michael Gervasi, a freshman, went from wing to defense and was the probable replacement for McNamara or Campedelli after they graduated. Gervasi (1-6-7] suffered from the switch back and forth but should improve with increased playing time. Goaltending had been a very consis- tent area for this unit. Junior Scott Gor- don showed flashes of brilliance and only recently displayed his newly de- veloped weapon, the quick glove hand, Gordon (19-7-1] shouldered the burden for most of the last tv o seasons. Sean Real (4-1 , 3,36 goals against aver- age] had proven to be a more than adequate back-up and had the well- deserved confidence of the coaching staff. Joe Donovan saw limited action but provided valuable insurance in the event of an injury. The long term goals of the players and coaching staff remained the same. The idea was to win Hockey East and cap- ture a berth in the NCAA Final Four. The next step would logically be to win the national championship. Legitimately three teams stood in their way; Michi- gan State, RPI and Minnesota-Duluth. One could be sure the Eagles would be flying high in February and March. And they said hockey took a back seat to Doug Flutie and football at the Heights. — Richard Neary Peter Klidaras Sports 113 With the winter must come snow, and with snow the skiers. Once again for 1984-85 Boston College possessed two nationally ranked ski teams. The fact that they didn ' t receive as much publici- ty as they might deserve does not marr the list of accomplishments that the team chalked up ' throughout the season. The magnitude of the ski teams ' potential for the ' 84- ' 85 season was real- ized early in that the men were ranked number one in a preseason poll. The women, also highly respectable in their efforts, were ranked seventh nationally the week of January twenty-first. Such noteriety and accomplishment did not come without talent. The men had the services of several outstanding athletes throughout the season. Among them were, Mike Leider, John Cough- Ian, Jeff Lewis, freshman George Abdow, John Crowley, and Eric Vanson. There were triumphs and set backs but as was the case with any truly unified team, there seemed always to be someone to pick up the slack for Boston College. Evidence of this was January twenty-sixth when, as a result of an injury to Leider, Jeff Lewis filled in and posted a respectable sixteenth place finish in a league race at Waterville, New Hamp- shire. The women ' s arsenal included Laura Hourihan (captain), Ingrid Vanson, Cor- nie Ryan, Monica Connell, and Tare Glackin. The team could be especially proud of the performance of its fresh- men members, Ryan, Glackin, and Connell in particular, who nonsistantly finished in the top fifteen. ' 84- ' 85 was a success, and more of the same could be expected in the fu- ture especially in light of the young tal- ent which Boston College skiing pos- sessed. — Tony Cammarota David Monahan 114 Sports David Monahan Sports 115 Men ' s Swimming Although suffering a loss in its opening meet, the men ' s swimming team went on to win the two following meets to start the 1984-85 swimming season. Putting Villanovo behind them, BC went on to face Worcester Polytech, The WPI meet was a boost in morale for the Eagle squad. Team captain, Lonnie Quinn performed well in the 1000 frees- tyle and 200 backstroke to lead the team to an outstanding victory. Fellow seniors Al Lawrence and Mark McCul- logh added strong showings in the 200 butterfly. The BC verses Providence College meet was one in which BC proved its superiority over its Big East rival. While swimming somewhat off events, Lonnie Quinn was the winner of the 50 and 100 freestyle and lead-off swimmer in the winning medley relay. Al Lawrence swam to a strong second place finish in the 200 backstroke. Duke Moloney twisted and piked for a graceful first place in the 1-meter optional diving events while also placing second in the 1-meter required competition as well. Over Christmas break in Puerto Rico, the senior squad worked very hard in swimming as well as in bringing the team together to form a strong unit. In addition to serious training, the squad performed well at the Donee Copa Navidad. Returning to Boston to face long-time rival URI, the team was high-spirited and looking great. Although losing a close meet to URI, great swims were abun- dant. Captain Quinn placed third in the 200 backstroke. McCullagh and Lawr- ence both performed strongly in their events. Duke Moloney competed to take second ' place in both 1 -meter and 3-meter boards. Though the senior squad would be missed both in person and perfor- mance, the returning juniors were more than ready and able to take their place OS leaders, Sophomores and freshmen both showed great potential to com- plete another great Eagle squad inr 1985-86. — Kevin Foley y Peter Klidaras 116 Sports I Women ' s Swimming Geoff Whv 118 Sports The women ' s varsity swim team be- gan its season with a very competitive line-up against Villanova, Harvard, and Maine. Led by co-captains Mary Ken- nedy and Denise Callahan, the Eagles were looking forward to a great year. Opening the season was the Pen- tathalon, an intersquad meet in which all the swimmers showed impressive times. Senior Denise Callahan stole the show and racked up the points to be the women ' s individual winner. Next was the BC co-ed relays in which the women combined their efforts with their male counterparts. The 11th annual event was further enhanced by the addition of Norwich University, Provi- dence College and the nemesis, the University of Connecticut, NCAA Division II swim rankings as of January placed co-captain Denise Callahan second in the 100 backstroke and fellow senior Christine Alola seventh in the 200 back. Veteran Tara McKenna was in second for the 100 breaststroke and also first in the 200 breast. Newcomers Suzy Sullivan, a freestyle sprinter, Kristen Murphy, a breaststroker and Kathy Koval, a butterflyer quickly placed themselves among the top ranked. Mary Kennedy held a solid first and second in the 1000 and 500 free- styles according to NEW ISDA top 25 times. Senior Linda Dixon was holding high in the ranks in the 100 and 200 breaststrokes. Liz O ' Keefe was also doing well in the backstroke events. Siobhan Sheehan, the only senior di- ver, continued to master the three meter board, trying to break her previous record. Other veterans Diane Flaherty, Lauri Berkenkamp, Jane Feitelberg, Claire Madden, Sheila Malloy and diver Anne O ' Brien, all juniors, were swimming hard and bettering times of the previous year. Sophomores Julie Churbuck, Shel- ly Erwin, Marybeth Jacobs and Erin Ler- sung added to a great effort. New additions were Julie Callahan, Kristen Achille, Kate Belavitch, Linda Gailus, Marianne Glynn, Cathy Glynn, Casey Jamieson, Katie Kennedy, Sonja Krusic, Marilyn Lamed, Colleen McFad- den and Mary Pawiack added to a thus far fun and eventful season. — Mike Cusack Sports 119 Chris Hanley Under head coach Dawn Rice, the 1984 Women ' s Volleyboll team had a disappointing year, posting a dismai 4- 33 record before the Big East Tourna- ment. It was basicaiiy a rebuilding year, or a training year for the youngsters to gain some valuable varsity experience, as six of the twelve members on the team were freshmen, Coming off a disappointing 7-23 record in 1983, Rice didn ' t know what to expect on a team which was anchored by her three seniors, co-captains Jan Gibson and Karen McNuity and also Gerri Moriarty, They were the backbone of the team but beyond them there was not much college experience on the squad, Michelle Hanson was the only junior on the squad, while the only other up- perclassmen were sophomores Cheryl Carozza and Cathy Rieder. As for freshmen the team was loaded. 120 Sports Volleyball (continued) from page 120 They were Ani Leal, Diane Coiaianni, Barbara Goil, Kris Andrew, Kristin LaPrise and Karen Ramsey. Even thougi the 1984 season was a disappointment, the youth on the Eagle squad shouid be a l ey for strong Eagle teams in 1985 and 1986. — Keith Gnozzo Chris Hanley Sports 121 Finally Magic Man does not work solo, and mirrors ore not a part of his act, He may be the guy in the spotlight with all the glitter and pizazz, but keep an eye on his assistants, are the words Coach Bill Yeoman of the Houston Cougars repeat- ed to his team on numerous occa- sions. The name, Doug Flutie, has come up in almost every conversation about Bos- ton College football. But, was Doug Flu- tie the whole team? The BC Eagles proved that there were other ways to win a football game when Doug Flutie was playing a subpar game. The Eagles went to Dallas with one goal in mind: a BOWL victory. The Eagles did just that by beating the Houston Cougars in the 1985 Cotton Bowl Classic: 45-28. The 1984 football season started with plenty of talk as to which bowl BC would be playing in. After the victory over Ala- bama, fans started thinking Notional Championship and New Year ' s Day bowl. The hopes to win the National Championship were dashed with the losses to West Virginia and Penn State, but the talk of a bowl continued. Repre- sentatives from the Orange, Sugar, Cot- ton, and Fiesta Bowls started scouting the games early In the season. BC was high on everyone ' s list, but why not. We had the potential Heisman Trophy win- ner, on exciting football team, and of course, fans willing to support their team. Once BC beat Syracuse, a major de- cision had to be made. Which bowl bid to accept? BC wanted to play in a New Year ' s Day bowl, and the one which was willing to accept the Eagles at that moment was the Cotton Bowl (remem- ber, the Miracle Pass hadn ' t been thrown yet). So, Bill Flynn and the BC football team voted to unofficially accept the Cotton Bowl bid after 42 years of not appearing in a New Year ' s Day Bowl. After BC ' s miraculous victory in Miami, a crowd of over 3000 students watched as Father Monon accepted the official invitation to play in the Cotton Bowl. The ceremony ended with the Cotton Bowl ' s Executive Vice President, Jim Moss Brock, saying, We ' ll have the greatest Bowl game in history. If you don ' t come down and have a good time, it ' s your own dam fault! The day after the bid was official, the Boston College Athletic Association started selling the 12,500 tickets allotted to BC. By 5PM, BC had sold over 10,000 tickets. When the ajsh was over, BC had sold over 17,000 tickets from Roberts Center. The football team still had one more game to concentrate on before it could think about the Cotton Bowl. Once the Eagles easily defeated Holy Cross and Doug Flutie hod received his Heisman, the talk was all Cotton Bowl and the Houston Cougars. The players enjoyed a week off; to study for exams, but started condition- ing practices on December 10th con- 122 Sports (continued] from page 122 tinuing until the 13tl-i. They hod from the 14th to the 1 7th off, with practices begin- ning on the 17th. The players were llowed to go home on the 22nd for Christmas and were all flown to Dallas on the 26th, The players enjoyed a week of fun including a Willie Nelson concert, a night at Billy Bobs and Confetti ' s, and a day at a ranch. But, January 1, 1986 came all too fast. The New Year was celebrated in style, except for the team who had a 11PM curfew. The long awaited day tiod come. Noth- ing dampened the BC fans spirits. The only hindrance was the weather: low 30 ' s with gusts of wind from 20 to 30 mph, The Dallas Morning News summed up;: the BC spirits by saying: In the end, nothing bothered thenf Not the cold winds that dropped the wind-chill factor in the Cotton Bowl to near zero. Not the subpar (for him] per- form ee f quarterback Doug Flutie. And not the revival of the Houston Cougars in the second half. No, Boston College Eagles had climbed too far up the mountain of re- spectability for that, The tiny school from Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts, with pre- tensions of grandeur was not about to squander its first New Year ' s Day invita- tion in 42 years. It was not about to let Flutie, the Heisman Trophy winner and America ' s newest coverboy end his col- legiate career without the satisfaction of a bowl victory, The first half of the game appeared as though BC would have a cake-walk with the Houston Cougars. The defense silenced their critics with their superb effort in holding bock Houston ' s veer-T offense. A major part of the defensive story was the antics of freshman line- backer Bill Romanowski, who led the Eagles with 13 tackles and was voted the Defensive Player of the 1985 Cotton Bowl. With the help of Mike Ruth, Scott Harrington, Dave Pereira, Peter Holey, Dave Thomas, and Chuck Gorecki, Houston was held to only 14 points in the first half and BC had a 17 point lead. Even though Doug Flutie was having what he considered to be a mediocre day, 13 of 37 fa 180 passing yards, pass- ing for 3 touchdowns, and throwing 2 interceptions, the offense still produced. The major reason the offense was so successful was because of the running game which features Troy Strodford, who rushed for 196 yards, and Steve Strachan, who ajshed for 93 yards. Steve Strachan was voted the Offensive Player of the 1985 Cotton Bowl for ability to make big plays when the Eagles needed them, plus getting those all im- portant short yard first downs. The second half of the game proved to the fans that it really was cold in Dai- las. The Cougars started to close the gap by scoring 2 touchdowns in the third quarter to bring them within 3. The Eagles began to dominate in the fourth quarter by scoring 2 touchdowns, com- pliments of Strachan and Strodford, and putting the game out of reach. With the decisive defeat over Hous- ton, The Class That Nobody Wanted soared into football history. The 1984 Boston College football season was capped off by winning the Lambert Tro- phy as the best team in the East and by finishing as the fifth best college football team in the country as voted by AP. — Kerstin Gnazzo and Cheryl Cop- Peter Klldaras puccio Makis latridis Makis latridis 124 Sports Lacrosse Lacrosse, a sport that had always been associated with Boston College, had posted yet another successful season. Both the men ' s and women ' s teams were forces to be reckoned with in their respective divisions. The men, a NCAA division one team, had several factors in their favor this season. It was a team that possessed both the old and the new. The old was personified in the three seniors, and four year starters, captains Mike Hannan (mid-field), Pete Burger (defense), and Ed Konstolanski (attack). The new came in the form of a new coaching staff consisting of Aps Kianan and Ed Moy, and several outstanding freshman team members including. Bill Ghan and Per- ry O ' Grady. This interesting mix of o new coaching staff and both returning and newly discovered talent led the Boston College La- crosse team through a rather unique season.

The team ' s challenging regular schedule in- cluded the University of Massachusetts, Brown and the University of New Hampshire This years Lacrosse team, though, was obviously one that en;oyed meeting chal- lenges head on They were able to do this with the help of a few odditional key players, Paul Stenburg, Jeff Morgan, and Tom Hone (teem goalie) all of whom were juniors.

December 1, 1984 New York; The Heisman room on the thirteenth floor of the New York Downtown Athletic Club (DAC) was the sight of the pre- sentation of the Heisman trophy for 1 984. As was sometimes the case, the audi- ence anxiously awaited the inevitable, yet, there was suspense; excitement which culminated with DAC President Harold A. Reinauer standing before the podium, and announcing: We con- gratulate and welcome the golden anniversary Heisman trophy winner — from Boston College, Doug Flutie. Among those present were Boston College officials: Jack Bicknell (head coach], William J. Flynn (Director of Athletics] and J. Donald Monan, SJ (Uni- versity President], Cotton Bowl Executive Vice President Jim Hoss Brock, family members, and roommate and receiver of THE PASS, Gerard Phelan. They had all accompanied Flutie from Worcester, Massachusetts, where he had just play- ed his final regular season college foot- ball game against Holy Cross that atter- noon. The final score was 45-10 BC. The nonrecruited underdog had been the Heisman favorite, He had been referred to as perhaps the greatest college football player ever, and still, upon receiving the award Flu- tie expressed, You dream of winning the Heisman, but you can ' t make it a goal. This is something special to the whole BC community. — Kathy Pelaez and Tony Cammarota 128 Sports Alison Brooks 130 Student Life Spare Time Henry Hyder Studying always had its ups and downs, for thie most part it was down. Yes, down as in stretched out on the livingroom sofa, a cup of coffee in one hand and a chewed up yellow outliner in the other hand, Somewhere under- neath the wads of crumpled up papers was your book that was supposed to provide you with the wealth of wisdom that impelled you to sign up for the course. Ah, the sweet discipline of college life and the woe of studying and grinding out the papers just didn ' t seem to equal the some exhiliration of lying back in the recliner and dozing on a mellow Sun- day afternoon. Eventually the cruel god called Motivation forced you to trek up to that seat in the library that had your name written all over it. Studying and sleeping always seemed to battle until the crafty Siren of relaxation successfully lured one into its enduring state. After all relaxing was im- portant as a means of airing out the weary mind and preparing the student for their n ext homework assignment. 132 Student Life Tail gating vt; parties, kegs, and cook-outs originating from ttie trunks of cars or ottier vel icles beginning hours prior to footbail games, lasting tliroughiout the game and even afterwards. Tailgating was a phenomenon at BC. in fact, generations of BCers returned to their alma mater annually to don every article of Boston College paraphernalia ever manufactured, and then some! The menu included everything from hamburgers grilled on makeshift barrel- halves to gourmet hors d ' oevres dished up on servers bearing the official school seal with maroon and gold Boston College cocktail napkins on the side. The student plex parking lot was the prime location for the pre-game party. Ex- tremely enthusiastic ' gaters were even spotted on the plex ' s roof from time to time. Travelling to Sullivan Stadium in Foxboro for some home games did not hinder the BC tailgater. But the bowl games boasted the most avid, faithful BC fans. They proved that no matter how far away from home the gome is the tailgate must go on! — Mary Leonard Andy Ryan Andy Ryan 134 Student Life Tom Smith . . . That seemed to be ttie ttieme for Boston College weekends. What was a typical Boston College Party anyway? The word seemed to have a different meaning for each BC student. For most, it was a means of escaping the heavy grind of classes and homework. A typical Thursday afternoon involved the imperative search for weekend parties. After a tough day of relaxing on Satur- day, it was time to venture out into the party world. Due to extensive party selections, the party route was always important. Hill- side parties had the apartment living rooms which provided ample room for dancing while simultaneously managing to hold onto a beer . . . The Mod parties had the reckless, open air format. With the keg in the kitchen and the back door open party-goers had the freedom to wander in and out depending on the standing-room conditions. Measure for measure the parties at BC were equal in the sense that no matter where they were, it was the people there that made it a memorable time. — Lauren Wilkins Partying Dustbowl It ' s a great day to bowl it, announced Bob, a tall blond senior as hie stuffed hiis bookbag under his hiead and reclined on a large segment of grass. It sure was! On any day when the sun shined brilliantly over BC, the stretch of grass between the quad and McEI- roy, known as the dustbowl, was the place to be. Bob, who appeared to be a profes- sional bowler, was displaying just one of the qualifications of dustbowling. to hang one nnust be completely at ease with all that is happening around him. The attitude one developed was not one of apathy, but rather that of lan- guishing the opportunity to bask in the sun. To aid in the sheer pleasure of taking it all in a few accessories must accompa- ny one. First, sunglasses, preferably Raybons or Vuarnets must be worn. Next, frisbees, or any other recreational outdoor gadgets were added to the re- laxed playful atmosphere of the dust- bowl. Lastly, books had to be in sight, projection the student image of the eter- nal dustbowler as he unwittinglly mis- sed his last class to relish the glorious day that would quietly evade him.

Deirdre Reidy 142 Student Life Deirdre Reidy Off Campus: The Lighter Side On the great scale of human expe- rience, off cannpus life was a memory to be reckoned with. Apartment hunt- ing usually came down to the deci- sion between the distance from Bos- ton College and the amount of cock- roaches that were scurrying about the kitchen floor, There were always the condos which were notorious for their rent which was well beyond the financial grasp of the typical college student. Yes, those Cleveland Circle landlords were sitting on a goldmine. However, the BC student was not to be daunted. Off campus parties provided an RA-Free atmosphere which only added to the festive spirit. Maturity was the key factor when it came time to deal with real world problems such as paying rent, electricity and buying gro- ceries. And of all horrors, knowing that one had to commute to school pro- vided the needed impetus to set the alarm on extra fifteen minutes early. About six mc ths into the school year when it came time to think of leaving, one began to realize that the mixed assortment of furniture, the cracks in the closet door, and the makeshift curtains in the kitchen had actually made their way into your heart. It may not have been the ritziest dwelling but nevertheless, it was home.- And that ' s a memorable experience! 144 Student Life Grocery Shopping? It all happened to us either junior or senior year when we were no longer de- pendent upon the Point Plan. At first this experience could be a little frightening by the thought of six roommates having to buy and plan meals for a whole week. The right grocer store wos impor- tant and we chose to do all of our gro- cery shopping at Heartland. When entering Heartland you first en- countered the fruit and vegetable sec- tion, The store has almost every type of fresh produce imaginable. If unsure of what the weird mushy orange thing that you were buying was, why not take a bite — just to make sure you liked it. The next section was our favorite — the food bins, In these bins you could find all sorts of foods, everything from yogurt cov- ered raisins to dried apricots. If you were a cheese lover you would be happy to know that in the cheese aisle there was on assortment of cheese samples. Next stop was the fish and meat section. There every roommate could be satisfied including the vegetar- ian, carnivore and kilbasi lover in the crowd, The following section was the dairy produce aisle. You would be amazed at the large variety of yogurt flavors the store carried. The lines in Heartland were rot that long end moved fast. All in all grocer shop- ping wasn ' t bad and could become a good excuse to get away from studying. — Deirdre Reidy Deirdre Reidy Karen Michaels Student Life 145 Regatta As a recreational and studying site in tlie spring and early fall, thie Charles Riv- er couldn ' t be beat, But one event in particular endeared thie Charles River to Boston students — the-Head-of-the- Charles-Regatta, which celebrated its tv entieth anniversary Sunday October 21, 1984. One of the preppiest and most color- ful sporting events to be attended in all of New England, the Head-of-the- Charles Regatta was the largest rowing event in the world. Each October over 720 boats from all across the United States, Canada, Scotland, and Eng- land competed in the 18 separate events which lasted throughout the day. Over 3,000 rowers covered the three miles beginning at the Boston University Boat Club near the BU Bridge to the finish Mary Leonard line (about a half mile beyond the Eliot Bridge near the WBZ Studios), creating a vertible pageant of rowing. In 1984, the Regatta, America ' s Foil Rowing Festival, began at 9:30 am with the Men ' s Veteran ' s Singles, made up of scullers of at least 50 years of age. Youths, women, and clubs also vied to be crowned Head of the Charles River for the ensuing year in their respective classes. The premier event, the Men ' s Championship Eights concluded the affair with the U.S. Naval Academy de- fending its three-year title. Boston College sports enthusiasts also took a part in the sideline festivities for a different sort of taiigating, with even an occasional Rolls Royce to be found. — Mary Leonard ! SmS photos left and above by Alison Brooks Student Life 147 As we began our final semester at Boston College, it suddenly occurred to us that our carefree, relatively worry free student days were reaching a conclu- sion, Soon the confrontation with the real world would be an inevitable occurence and each of us approached the idea of our future with nervous anxiety. Nerves were evident in the sense that these four years of stu- dious finally began to take shape. How could we avoid the momentous sweep of Time as it pushed us closer ond closer to that fated day of graduation? With the Career Center ' s monthly dead- lines and unlimited numbers of worl - shops, we soon joined the flow of the job searchers. Competitively, we tried to maneuver ourselves into the most profit- able position for attaining our future goals. The only problem was that with one foot still firmly lodged in the party- study style of academic life and the other foot slowly stepping towards the life of independent, responsible adult- hood, those future goals seemed a little nebulous. Resumes, interviews, suits, black pumps and Business Weekly wormed their way into our daytime thoughts as Career Center: Makis latndis 148 Student Lite The Hunt Begins ORGANIZATIONS RECRUITING ON CAMPUS well as our evening nightmares. How many times over Christmas vacation and during the second semester ' s many party gatherings were we asked, What are you going to do after graduation? How many times di d we fumble for a response to this everlasting question. How many times did we stand in front of the bathroom mirror and, with a nervous shudder, ask ourselves, What am I going to do after graduation?! The only answer was no answer because unless we were one of those fortunate few who had our lives conveniently plotted out already, no one knew exactly what the future held. Whether we chose jobs in the business world or opted for a life of living each day to see what happens in the job market or decided to continue our ed- ucation in pursuance of a medical, le- gal or other type of masters degree, we eventually made the decisions for out futures. Yet, even though we made them, somehow the future still escaped us. We soon realized that even though we grew older and stepped into the adult world with both feet. Future was always one step ahead. — Tania Zielinski Deirdre Reidy Peter Hillenbrand Student Life 149 I found my roommate one day, lying on the living room couchi, his head propped atop two pillows. One arm was draped across his forehead and the other tightly clenched a bottle of Budweiser. His sweatpants were ripped on both ' knees and his shirt, drenched with sweat, was matted to his skin. I asked him, softly, if there was any- thing 1 could get him, Aspirin, water, the phone, his favorite baseball mitt, any- thing, For some particular reason I felt some mysterious compassion for his apparently abused muscles. Ah, the discipline of the plex fanatic. In a moment of sincere benevolence 1 stepped over to the chair next to him, took the basketball off and sat down, I proceeded to begin my speech about the traumas of a rigid exercise routine. Who needs the plex with its basketball courts, tennis courts, swimming pools and worst of all tortures, the indoor track? Who needs intramural activities to interact with people? Why not settle for walking to and from classes? Or go to the library? Just then his tennis partner phoned. Tennis, tonight? 6 o ' clock? Sure, I ' ll write it down for him. I hung up the phone and looked over. He had turned to grin at me with a mis- chievous smirk, Masochist. — TAZielinski Andy Ryan 150 Student Life Mary Leonard Student Life 151 7:30 am: You awaken to the smells of bacon and eggs and frestily brewed coffee.

Although BC alumni and students did not find warm weather in Dallas they were greeted with worm southern hospitality. Each night BC chose a different nightclub to visit such as Confetties, Monopolies or Croco- diles, Days were spent shopping and ice skating in the Galleria or discovering new foods prepared in the southern kitchen. Many students stayed in the Quality Inn which became Dallas ' ver- sion of Walsh Hall. The magic began at the Pep Rally held in the Anatole New Year ' s Eve, BC fans gathered along with the BC band to cheer on the football team.

Makis latridis Remember the times when you were in need of o little extra cash? Those times when a certain feeling of desperation set in because you didn ' t have enough money to participate in the exciting so- cial events happening on and around the Boston College campus. One alternative was to call home, but the money wouldn ' t always arrive in time. We could borrow, but most of our friends just didn ' t have it to lend. The only other plausible alternative to guarantee a steady cash flow was to work. Luckily, the BC campus offered us a number of opportunities to obtain that extra needed cash. The Plex, Bookstore, O ' Neill Library, various offices and din- ing halls were all popular places to work and did not require outrageous time commitments. Off campus establishments were generally very happy to hire a hard working BC student. While Mountain Creamery, L ' il Peach, The College Sup Shop and Star Market were usually in need of help, especially when school was in session. — Cheryl Cappuccio Sports 159 Getting Some people soid I had no survivol instincts; some said I lacked common sense; most told me to take lessons. I loved to ski, so whiat was the problem ' ' I didn ' t know how to ski, that was the problem! How anyone could strap two six-foot long slabs of waxed wood on his feet and race flawlessly down a seventy de- gree slope of sheer ice was beyond my knowledge of physics. An appropriate title of this story would be A beginner ' s Guide to Spectacular Wipe-outs and Related Skiing Mis- adventures. As a human being and a victim of countless accidents myself, I felt that I was capable of such delinea- tion of the sport I adored so much. The first piece of advice I had to give was to look like you belong as you walked through the jam-packed lodge enroute to the lift ticket booth. Don ' t be abashed if people were laughing at your skis that looked like Rossignol ' s answer to the Model-T Ford and your boots that had laces instead of buckles. As long as you donned a $500 down parka and a mul- it-colored, pom-pommed snow hat you should fit in with the rest of the ski- crowd. The ability of a skier was directly prop- ortional to the number of lift tickets attached to the zipper of his jacket. Never ski with someone who had more than three different lift tickets and espe- cially stay away from anyone with tick- ets printed in foreign languages. As a general rule, always select a fellow be- ginner for a partner. It was relatively easy to discern an expert from a novice. The expert glided down the mountain with a smile on his face while the novice screamed down the slope, careening from tree to tree. Now that you found a partner, the next step was to get on the chairlift — no sweat, right? Wrong. You had exactly three seconds to trek from your place in line to a squat position twenty feet away, in front of the oncoming chair, with skis parallel. If you should happen to stumble on the way to the chair, it would be in your better judgement to duck because the chairs did not stop for anyone. It was a smooth ride to the peak of the mountain, so a conversation was needed with your chairlift companion. Hopefully you would be pleasured with the company of someone of the oppo- site sex because many interesting rela- tionships developed from chairlift en- counters. Don ' t send out the wedding invitations too early, however, because according to beginner tradition, the first time someone was on a chairlift, he al- ways lost one of his skis three-fourths of Down the way to the top. All of your big-shot ski-talk (you probably had her believing that you were a member of the US Olym- pic Ski Team or that you owned the en- tire ski resort) slid down the mountain with the abandoned ski. Once at the top of the mountain, one should take time to digest the panor- amoic view provided by such a high vantage point. This comfortabte feeling could easily be transformed into ner- vous fright, however, by merely reading the name of the slope off a posted sign. Satan ' s Revenge . So here you were, uni-skied on an expert trail, looking straight downward at the bug that two- thousand feet ago was your car, and shaking out of fear for your life. You guys go ahead first, I ' m right behind you, was your first remark. Chances were they would not bother to look back and witness your futile attempt at main- taining balance anyway! All that you had to do to begin your battle with the devil was lift your ski poles from the snow. There was no need to push off because the mountain was like a magnet drawing you into your darkest nightmare [unless, of course, the thought of impending death delighted you!] At first, the trail was simple with a few hills and slight turns that were surpri- singly navigable. You hadn ' t con- quered the mountain yet, though, be- cause just ahead was a ninety degree cliff and the skiers in front of you were not slowing down, much less stopping. Watching the others drop off the edge of the earth would probably cause you to give up early and close your eyes, missing your spectacular wipe-put. Your eyes were the only functional part of your body so with them they fol- lowed the blue streak from the seat of your jeans to the point of impact with the snow about four-hundred feet above. Listening for Rod Serling ' s voice would not help because you were not dead, just in severe pain. After you unsuccess- fully tried to convince the ski-patrolman that you were a professional stuntman filming a movie and that you would ski down the rest of the trail, he would roll you onto a sled and bounce you down the mountainside to the first aid shack. Thank the doctor for putting stitches in your forehead and a cast on your leg because now you had a legitimate ex- cuse for staying away from the monster that some call a ski-slope. It was cold outside but it was warm in the lodge with a large mug of hot chocolate mixed with a tad of peppermint schnappes. Besides, all the really pretty ski-bunnies gathered inside by the hearthstone fire- piece anyway! — Dan Wheeler Student Life 161 Fad-tastic Trends Deirdre Reidy Alison Brooks 164 Student Life As the years came to pass, they be- came characterized by the things that made them unique. 1985 was no excep- tion.

No, a Mac was not a McDonald ' s Big Mac; it was an Apple Macintosh computer. Boston College purchased 120 new computers which were placed in Gasson and the O ' Neill Library for use by students and faculty. This craze also included a deal for BC full time students. As long as a student was still enrolled at BC, he was allowed to purchase his own Mac for $1260, as compared to a retail selling price of approximately $2500. Many students took advantage of the offer because it was a great deal , others did because of the convenience. For commuting students, it meant not hav- ing to spend additional hours on cam- pus just to get computer time. The prob- lems students ran into was getting com- puter time. With the Macintosh being so light, 22 pounds, the computer room needed user assistants whenever it was open. This meant that students could only work on the computers until 12 AM Monday thru Friday and knew that Sat- urday was a wasted day, since the computer room was closed. Students could no longer pull all nighters in Gas- son basement. They could at least get 8 hours of sleep (the computer room didn ' t open until 9 AM], But still, the Macintosh had taken BC by storm. — Kerstin Gnazzo Where are the books?

The clothing section of the book -store had been enlarged significantly with the selection changing upon every visit. With the success of the BC Football team and Heisman Trophy winner Doug Flutie, the sales at the BC bookstore had been booming. And BC students we- ren ' t the only customers. Probably half the state composed this diverse clien- tele who were more than likely in search of the perfect 22 football jersey or bumper sticker.

As I forced myself to my 3:00 class Thursday afternoon, images of a frosty cold beer were already drift- ing through my mind. It had been a long week; reading, a test and two papers, but hopefully Thursday night would moke all my hard work worthwhile. After hitting the sub shop for my daily intake, I went to the plex futily trying to work off the inevitabel beer-gut . Now feeling that I had just done something healthy and beneficial for my body, that justi- fied all the BAD coming to it. Feeling like a lean, mean, dancing machine, I jog- ged to my mod with high hopes for the future. I hopped through the sliding door of my mod . . . PSYCHE, someone had my idea ... a case of cold brews were sitting on my dining room table. In one swift motion I snatched one from the pack and plopped down in front of the tube to catch up on World News. (I won- dered how the Celts were doing anyway.) Get up, you lazy bum, my hyper roommate screamed throughout our sound-proof mod. I reluctantly dragged myself to the shower to get my room- mate off my case. The refreshing water suddenly brought me back to reality . . . This was Rat night! Lines usually discouraged most peo- ple at BC, not me I 1 was a senior ... I had connections. I strolled in with rela- tive ease to check out the situation. Some friends, some scopes; it was going to be a good night. At the end of the evening, mod num- bers never stuck in your mind, but the throbbing pound in your head the next morning reminded you that you had a good time. Was this Saturday? I hoped it was, but my alarm clock interrupted this hopeful thinking reminding me that I had my 10:00 gut. While on campus for my only class I was filled in on the vague gaps that clouded my memory of the previous night. I tumbled into bed for a few more hours of beauty rest before getting decked out for Friday happy-hours. Being the responsible senior that I was, I made this an early night, forcing myself to go home after the last bar closed, to prepare myself for the early afternoon tailgate. Saturday nights we were itching to go into the city, but a low budget student- income kept us at the usual ritual of mod-hopping. I understood what the good Lord was doing when he made a day of rest; Sun- days fit his purpose extremely well. — IVIary Roddy Student Life 177 eniors Deborah Elsasser Age 22 Major: Organizational Studies Marketing Right now I ' m worried about get- ting accepted to Law school; and i as May approaches I ' ll be worried about not seeing my roommates after graduation.

The students, under the backing of UGBC, had been fighting for some type of responsible drinking establishment on campus. It took a long summer of fight- ing but the administration finally approved the plans for great, yet safe and mature drinking. Beginning each vyeekly series was The Sunday Night Cafe held Sunday evenings at the Golden Lantern. Bottled beer and hors d ' oeuvres were served from 9-12. An occasional visit by a BC musician provided the entertainment, Monday ' s pub was held at the Rat in Lyons Hall. Minday Night Football Games were shown on wide-screen TV, Unfortunately, pro football was not as exciting as BC ' s and the series had to be cancelled. A Charitable Toast to Tuesday was the theme for Tuesday ' s Dinner-Lecture Series, Held in McElroy ' s main dining room this series lecturers included Lisa Bimbach and Dr. Ruth Westmeiner. Pizza and Pitchers were available every Wednesday night at the Golden Lantern from 9-12. BC musicians made occasional appearance here to help cure those mid-week blues. The most popular of the Pub Series nights were The Traditional Rat Nights held each Thursday evening. Hosted and run by the Rat staff. Rat night was a guaranteed good time for all those who attended, Good Stuff was the DJ deemed most popular by the students. In addition to them the Rat also hosted its ever-popular Air Band Contest (a smashing success), a Mr, and Mrs. Michelob Contest, and Frito Lay Night, Attending the Rat ' s Attitude Adjust- ment Hour every Friday afternoon was a great way to start the weekend. Enter- tainment was provided by jazz musi- cians and comedians. With the advent of the increased drinking age the student ' s are proving the fact that they can drink maturely and responsibly. Keeping the drinking on campus, keeping the students off the roads, and promoting responsible drink- ing was the goal of the Campus Pub Senes, The organizers learned what does and what does not work which can only help the success of the next series. — Mary Kennedy Student Life 183 Janice Gill One of the highlights at the RAT in the 84-85 season was a unique concept known as AiRBAND. Gone were the days when young hopefuis were forced to sing to their hairbrushes while drying their hair before their nnorning classes. Now, with the aid of tennis rackets, hockey sticks and spoons, future stars could perform live, on stage, before screaming fans to the music of such BC favorites as Springsteen, the Stones and the Jackson Five. The event was hosted by emcee David Smith complete with with tux and jokes. Behind the scenes (and on stage], was the man was the man directly re- sponsible for organizing the AIRBAND Contest — Chris Patton. While a panel of four judged each of the groups on the categories of talent, originality and dress, the reactions of an enthusiastic audience were certain to influence their decisions. Not only were people dense- ly packed atop tables and chairs as well as on the floor, but also outside the windows, eager to get a glimpse of this exciting experience. The active partici- pation of the crowd was contagious and a key factor in the success of the event, In fact, the spirit carried through the intermission while the masses joined the D.J. in singing Don McLeans ' Ameri- can Pie .

Passing through seasons of sunshine and storm that help us to thrive and to grow. Nutured by our visions of a golden des- tiny, our hopes grow ever stronger, reach ever higher, seeking the endless possibilities of tomorrow. — Debra Manning ' Ml ' . — sr en Geoff Why Geoff Why 188 Student Life Being Yourself Of course the weather ir fluenced peoples ' moods. Try to imagine this scene: suddenly, the Heights was buzzing and tanned students clad in t-shirts, shorts, and donning the ever- popular Ray-Bans were sprawled out on the Dustbowl. The Mods abounded with hibachis and a con- tinuous flow of beer ran from the kegs. The anticipatory climate was char- acterized by lively chatter rising from outdoor happy hours. Could you guess which season governed this scene? The sociable, expectant atmos- phere which pervaded BC when stu- dents returned to begin another year, was in sharp contrast to the quiet, cozy days of winter. Winter was a time when moods began to change easier and a lot quicker. The weather made all the sun bums dream of war- mer days and chronically complain about the situation at hand. To com- bat this point, spending time with close friends was preferred to ventur- ing out into the biting cold. Makis latridis Alison Brooks 190 Student Life (continued) The physical appearance of the campus itself ' weathered ' any sea- son, and during the winter months, there were few things as picturesque as Gasson tower at snowfall. It was this subdued attitude that allowed students to fully appreciate the arrival of spring. Students who got ' spring fever ' quenched this desire by getting rid of their ' cabin fever ' and venturing to Florida for Spring Break. It was a per- fect upper to put an end to the dol- drums of a cold northern winter. Springfest Weekend marked the official beginning of spring at BC, cul- minating with the Boston Marathon on Heartbreak Hill. Once again, the students come alive as optimism and a renewed energy took over the Bos- ton College campus — in the dust- bowl, frisbees were flying, the tennis courts were full and the Resevoir challenged tireless runners. Spring would quickly become summer and all too soon, the season- al clock would drift to another Sep- tember and the Heights would greet returning students once again. — Maureen McNicholl Deirdre Reidy Makis latridis Student Life 191 Is Coke It? Drugs at BC While some students came to BC for the footboll or the Jesuit tradition there are many who chose BC primarily be- cause it was known as a partying school. Although the subject was considered somewhat of a taboo by the administra- tion it was no secret to undergraduates that marijuana and cocaine were pop- ular among many students. For some students alcohol and drugs became a problem. Addiction was not un- common. The good times or addictions of some students was the income of others. For some selling cocaine was a way to pay their $10,000 tuition bill without working full time. The fall of 1984 saw two students thrown off campus for intent to distribute cocaine. That charge became quite controversial since it followed the arrest of one of the football players for posses- sion of cocaine and he was not asked to leave campus housing. These two inci- dents made it clear that despite the hush hush attitude drugs were a big part of the BC community, Tried and True Mary Ann ' s — (affectionately known as MA ' s) — Truly a BC hangout. One al- ways found someone he knew drinking here on any given night. Thursday nights were for freshmen, while Wednesday nights were big for Juniors and Seniors. Always crowded late night, MA ' s was home to preps and pigs . Chips — When MA ' s was too crowded. Chips caught the overflow. Smaller and more subdued than MA ' s, it was per- fect for those who felt too cool to deal with crowds and conversation. Sam ' s — (short for Play it Again Sam ' s] — Although not in walking distance from BC, Sam ' s was conveniently lo- cated off the B-line. What made Sam ' s so special was its large drinks and its extensive ballot of films shown down- stairs. It offered a large Sunday brunch — a perfect cure all for nagging Sunday morning hangovers. Who ' s — (Better known as Who ' s on First?) — The bawdiest of all bars BC students ever patroned. Freshmen went for the Friday happy hours only to never return Sophomore, Junior or Senior year. It was great for those who loved scream- ing, singing, chugging and falling in two inches of dirt and beer. One never wore their favorite shoes or new sweater. The Bacicyard — A quiet quiche and salad place. If you were tired of all the typical BC hangouts, this place was great for quiet, meaningful conversa- tion. Occasionally, one might have spotted a BC couple sharing a bottle of wine here! White Mountain — With lines that went out the door. White Mountain Creamery was the place for procrastinators with a sweettooth. Like the bars, this place was guaranteed to be crowded late at night. White Mountain was responsible for the Freshman fifteen still seen on Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors. Uno ' s — (Pizzeria Uno ' s) — A fun place to go to grab a pizza. When there was nothing better to do, one could always, go to Uno ' s and then decide . FFF — (Fantastic Food Factory] — Lo- cated at the comer of Chiswick Road and Commonwealth Avenue, this was the home of greasy pizza and gooey Ice Cream. Consuming food from FFF more than once a week probably would result in cancer. Christy ' s — ( Open all night! ] — When there was no food in the apartment and only a handful of change in a coat pocket, one was bound to find some- thing that would cure the hunger pains here. Located across from MA ' s, this was often the last stop before returning home from a rough night of socializing . — Clare Kennedy Peter Hillenbrand Student Life 193 Activities ■1 1 Peter HiiienDiand 194 Activities Activities 195 196 Activities The 1984-1985 academic year marked a new era for the Undergradu- ate Government of Boston College (UGBC). The undergraduate govern- ment, headed by president Jeff Theil- man, began a multitude of new pro- grams so there would be an activity on campus every night. The campus pub series kicked off the new school year with wild new events like, The Sunday Night Cafe . Monday Night Football Baseball . ' Pizzas and Pitchers and Attitude Adjustment Hour . In addition to the Campus Pub Pro- gram the government sponsored a series of Social Justice Lectures. The lec- tures included William F. Buckley, repre- sentatives of Mothers Against Drunk Driv- ers, Dr. Ruth Westheimer, and John Anderson. Topics ranged from The Controversy over Abortion featuring Phyllis Schaffley and Sarah Weddington to Alcohol in Advertising lead by Jean Kilbourn. The Humanities Series featured Daniel Berrigan, SJ, Reading from his poems , James Tobin, Full Prosperity or Stagfla- tion , Denis Donoghue, Resenting the Past , Denise Levertov, Reading from her poems , and Peter Amott, Oedipus the King . The Weekend Series designed by the committees on the programming board introduced innovative ideas which had never hit the Heights before. Pep Rallies, a Burger for a Buck barbe- que, Monte Carlo Night in O ' Connell House, and a Homecoming Worth Coming Home For wetB just a few of the new events, The Film Board, O ' Connell House and the Casba featured traditionally popu- lar movies such as West Side Story, The Graduate, Boys from Brazil and Sleeper. More current films like Terms of Endearment, Splash, and The Deer Hunter were also available for student entertainment. Murray House continued its tradition of Spaghetti Dinners and the Piano Bar, The staff of Murray House also intro- duced new items such as the Thursday Barbeque and an Outdoor Movie Spec- tacular to their agenda this year as well, however, UGBC also provided the BC commu- nity with such imperative programs as the book co-op. The co-op enabled students to exchange used books for far Jeff Thielman and members at work in ttte UGBC offices. Mark Mendolla less than they cost to purchase at the bookstore. The co-op could save a stu- dent up to 200 dollars a semester, quite a hefty sum for the average undergrad budget! A Festival Of Friendship was under the direction of UGBC too. It provided a day for interaction between student volun- teers and children with special needs in the surrounding community. The Free University, otherwise known as Free U offered students courses which were not available in the regular curriculum like Bartending and CPR . Information about programs like Free U was brought to the attention of the student body through the Communica- tions Committee, This hardworking group was responsible for all UGBC publications such as the Freshman Reg- ister and the UGBC Newsletter, — Geri Murphy 4 Mark Mendolla stop the Presses Each and every Monday morning stu- dents tieaded toward McElroy to pick up the weekly issue of one of the school newspapers. The Heights was Boston College ' s independent, copyrighted student weekly that was recognized as BC ' s most familiar publication. Each week the staff produced a quality 24 to 36 page newspaper that allowed the diverse voices of the student body to be heard. The weekly publications offered stu- dents up-to-date coverage of local events, as well as an overview of press- ing national and international issues. The Heights not only provided students with news, but also with campus infor- mation, extensive sports reviews, spe- cial events of the week, and editorials. The Heights helped make the student body of Boston College more aware of the matters that both directly and in- directly shaped their lives and society.

Students, especially seniors, flipped through the pages of this precious recording of memories of Bos- ton College and the surrounding com- munity. For nearly three quarters of a century. Sub TurrI had documented happenings, events, and activities that occured under the tower during the course of the academic year. This professional publication was completely student created by a dili- gent staff of writers, photographers, and editors who work some 40-plus hours a week, many times pulling all nighters to document and record an everlasting book of memories of the Heights.

Photo Editor Geoff Why Asst. Photo Editor Andy Ryan The Observer, in its third year at this printing, was still fighting to remain a permanent fixture on the BC campus. With no office, no typesetting equip- ment and no support from the school, The Observer had become an under- ground publication of sorts. Yet a fresh group of students set out at the begin- ning of the year determined to further the development of the paper, hoping eventually to rival The Heights in terms of circulation and staff. The Observer was founded as an independent student publication de- voted to both campus and national issues. However, publisher Rick Rizzo and editor George DeAngelo began the year with the goal of increasing canrv pus coverage while reducing political commentary. In doing so. The Obser- ver helped to create a forum for de- bate among students at BC. Moreover, Mark Mendolla 198 Activities Mark Mendolla the Observer had provided informa- tive and interesting coverage of nnovies, entertainment, sports and iiterature. Through increased fundraising efforts and continuai alumni support, the Observer was abie to double its cir- culation and increase its off-campus, distribution. The content of the Observer vjas written by a staff of regular contributors. There were also a dozen regular staff members who assisted as sales repre- sentatives, circulation aides and typists. The Observer was one of many new student publications promoting a con- servative agenda. Yet the Observer had no affiliations with any political party. In 1984 the Observer was cited by various national and local publications as an outlet for the latest conservative youth movement.

The music ' s soft rhythmic beat began to pulsate throughout the auditorium as the spotlights flashed live- ly patterns on the empty stage. Sudden- ly, the bright light was filled with a mass of vibrant color which moved in motion synchronized with the music. It whirled and leapt about the stage, daring the spotlight to follow its energetic pattern until it reached a climax filled with elec- trifying emotion. At this point the music ' s tempo slowed and the lights dimmed leaving the stage in paralyzing dark- ness. The audience searched the dark- ness for the mysterious vision of color which had mesmerized their attention. This motion was a live performance of the artistic talent in BC ' s Dance Ensem- ble. Each fall the entire BC community was free to audition for the ensemble which graced the stage with ballet, jazz, tap and modern dance. The troupe was dedicated to enlightening the audience with the art and beauty of interpretive dance as well as fostering an appreciation of the dancers ' talents. The presentation format encouraged the students to personally choreograph the dance and select their own partici- pants. The 1984-85 Ensemble was directed by Ann Archimbaults and aided by As- sistant Directors Allyson Hawkins, Mau- reen McFarlane and Suzie O ' Grady. The season ' s hit pert ormances included Cabaret for Parents Weekend and the Autumn performance of Baby I ' m a Star. — Tania Zielinski Activities 201 Noteworthy The 1984-85 edition of the Boston Col- lege band continued to live up to the rich tradition of past BC music ensenn- bles. Through dedication and many hours of hard work, this unit matured to perfection during the course of the past year, The band was 190 members strong, with the color guard, the t A irlers, and the band itself included in this figure. Peter Siragusa once again engineered this fine group of young individuals as he has done for the past 35 years. Siragusa stressed perfection, and his persistency was a key factor to the success of the Screamin ' Eagles Band. Even though Siragusa was in charge of the group, much control of the band was taken by the students themselves. Heading the student elite was Band President Mark DiVincenzo, who totally dedicated himself to his duties. The Vice-President was Margaret Neeser while the Secretary was Renee Sullivan and the Treasurer was David Sullivan. The band, which is the largest orga- nization on campus, had a great sea- son which was highlighted by a trip to the Miami football game. Also, the band gave its total support to the school by playing at all of the home sports con- tests. The University Chorale also had another tremendous year in 1984-85. For those not familiar with this organization, it was a singing group which featured liturgical music, but also performed contemporary music as well. The Chorale was once again headed by Dr, C. Alexander Peloquin, who con- ducted the organization for his twenty- ninth straight year. Peloquin was known as a Composer-in-Residence. He also was an accomplished pianist and con- ductor, as well as being a renowned interpreter of liturgical music. As for the Chorale itself, it was com- posed of 140 members, which included undergraduate students, faculty mem- bers, and graduate students. The group performed many concerts and masses during the Academic Year. Also during the 1984-85 year, the organization par- ticipated in the O ' Neill Library Dedica- tion to Speaker of the House Tip O ' Neill. The musical combination was not confined to the limits of Boston College. They had in the past travelled to such places as Rome, New York City, Lon- don, Washington D.C., and Paris. The 1983-84 edition of the Chorale travelled to West Germany. The University Chorale had another impressive turnout during the past year. With a dedicated group of young adults, this organization continued to strengthen its strong roots. — K.G. LM. The B.C. Chorale performs at the O ' Neill Li- brary dedication. Staff Photo 202 Activities staff Photo Activities 203 Faces of the Future The Student Admissions Program was one of the iargest student organizations on campus, This year over 800 students, from all four undergraduate schools, volunteered their efforts in hopes of con- veying their pride in BC to applicants and their parents. During this 1984-85 academic year, the program grew under the direction of Theresa Chmara, Head Coordinator, in both number of volunteers and in the diversity of services offered to the Admissions Office. The Day Visitation Program was the best vjay for a high school student to get acquainted with BC. Every weekday during the academic year, dozens of SAP volunteers greeted prospective BC students with similar academic interests and spent the day with them on the campus. Tour and Group Information Sessions were also another area where SAP volunteers helped prospective students learn about BC. Over 100 students volun- teered their time as tour guides of the campus and another two dozen con- ducted Group Information Sessions at the office, where they gave a presenta- tion of BC facts and then answered any questions about the college. Special programs were also active in the SAP this year. AHANA (Afro- American, Hispanic, Asian and Native American], a program which dealt pri- marily with minority admission, had a greater amount of volunteers this year than ever before. Coordination and De- velopment, a special program which dealt with a potpourri of projects, ran such events as the socials, the Letterwrit- ing Campaign, and the Newsletter, ful- filling its goal of establishing greater communication within the program and with prospective students. Coordinators for the 1984-85 program were: Theresa Chmara, Head Coordi- nator; Andi Mullin, Interview Coordina- tor; Jane Papademetriou, High School Vacation Bisit Program; Cynthia Bailey and Rich Ferrara, Day Overnight Visit Program; Mymie Breton, AHANA; Jim Treanor, Tours; and Mark Seman, Coor- dination and Development. — Mark Seman Geoff Why 204 Activities LYONS HALL; ADMISSIONS Gold Key Blood Drive Holly Hillenbrand 206 Activities Every Drop Counts The American Red Cross Blood Ser- vices, Northeast Region, gave service to two hundred hospitals in IVIaine and Massachusetts. They collected 1,300 pints everyday in order to meet pa tients ' needs. Three times during the academic year, fall, v inter, and spring, the Gold Key Society sponsored blood drives on ' both the Chestnut Hill campus and the Newton campus. The Gold Key assisted the Red Cross by providing publicity, a location, and workers during the drive. I Boston College was noted as one of the leading donor communities in the state of IVIassachusetts. Giving blood was a very satisfying ex- perience for many. Knowing that it could have saved another ' s life was a great feeling. Like they said, Every drop counts. I Gold Key members helping out with the Blood Drive at BC. |l - Talk It Up Show and Tell There were many different alleyways or e could follow if they were interested in the field of Communica- tions. Boston College, through WZBC Radio Station, The Filmboard, and the Advertising Club, offered students a chance to get a head start in their field of work. All three clubs were exclusively run by Boston College students who bro- fessionolly learned how to inform and entertain their fellow classmates. WZBC, the BC radio station, was broadcast on both AM and FM. While broviding the listening audience with a wide variety of music, WZBC-FM also offered educational and informative programming. Under the guidance of General Manager, Kevin Convery, the radio staff organized a selective and diverse program schedule, allotting time on weekdays from public affairs shows dealing with such subjects as faith healing, sports, and controversial BC issues. Block programming was used on weekends, specifying definite, equal time for musical and informative listening. Unlike WZBC-FM, WZBC-AM broad- cast only to the BC campus. It is at this station that beginners in radio gained experience in radio announcing. Students, if not interested in radio, could become familiar with the film in- dustry through involvement in the Film Board. Headed by chairperson Mike Nyklewics, this club entertained the campus weekly by selecting and show- ing a variety of films, On Fridays and Saturdays, these films were shown on Main Campus in McGuinn auditorium, while on Sundays they were shown in Barry Arts Pavillion on Newi-on Campus. The diverse selection allowed every BC student an opportunity to view films of their preference. Rear Window, West Side Story, and Trading Places were a few of the favorite movies offered by the Film Board in 1985. In order to encourage a better under- standing of various aspects of the advertising field, the Advertising Club of Boston College came into existence. Members of this club were exposed to both good and bad advertising skills, allowing them to distinguish between different types of promotion. The club, led by President Barry Hutchinson, spon- sored guest speakers, workshops and field trips to different advertising agen- cies. Members received, through these activities, a better understanding of the jobs that will hopefully be facing them in the near future. — Amy Seigenthaler Geoff Why Activities 209 Community Awareness; Several organizations at Boston Col- lege were dedicated to serving othiers in the Cathiolic tradition. The Gold Key Society was one of thie largest student organizations at Bos- ton College, Its members had an oppor- tunity to serve the university and its sur- rounding community through a number of diverse service oriented events, Friendship, the sense of community ser- vice, and sacrifice were the aims of this group. Gold Key members could be seen ushering at athletic events, lectures at the new theater, and during Orienta- tion week. Members also worked with off-campus organization such as the . Red Cross Blood Drives and Boston Citi- zen Seminars. The president of this orga- nization in 1984-85 was Lisa Berm- ingham. Circle K was the world ' s largest col- legiate service organization, repre- sented by over 700 clubs located on campuses throughout the Western Hemisphere. Its members were those who wished to become involved in acti- vities and projects which served the community ' s needs. Besides partici- pation in service activities, members also were involved in social events, learning leadership skills, working with business and community heads, and forming long-lasting friendship while striving toward common goals. The Student Council for Excep- tional Children was port of the School of Education and was active in helping and entertaining children with special needs. This organization was nation- wide and was open to any concerned student, regardless of their major. This chapter organized and thirew parties and fundraisers for the Campus School. Members also planned events with the Festival of Friendship and the Special Olympics. PULSE was a social service group which worked with communities and in- stitutions throughout the Boston area, stressing disciplined philosophical and theological reflection in the classroom and in society. Through the combination of reflective, academic work and field experience, the program encouraged the student to form critical perspectives on society, community and self. Stu- dents were encouraged to analyze the causes and complexities of social order and disorder, and to foster a commit- ment to personal responsibility for addressing these injustices. The program provided placements in such areas as: research and legal work, emergency services and shelters, spe- cial needs, the elderly, mental health, correctional systems, youth work andl peace work. The group was continually investigating and expanding new placement prospects through the PULSE 210 Activities Makis latridls j( continued] Advisory Program. 1984-85 was PULSE ' S fifteentli ' anniversary on tine BC campus and jmany special events were planned to celebrate thie occasion, The NAACP or National Association for the Advancement of Colored People continued its concern for helping black students coordinate their educational, personal and career needs and goals. By sponsoring activities like membership drives and job fairs, they provided stu- dents with guidance in obtaining their goals as college students. The president of NAACP for the 1984-85 academic year was Maya Handwerk, — Kathy Reilly Makis laTriais Activities 211 Geoff Why 212 Activities Makis latridis When those books become too much of a headache and it was time to let off a litt ie steam, students always headed jforthe nearest cafeteria. Food, the tradi- tional cure for study blues, provided not I only energy but a chance to socialize ' with friends. Eagles Nest and McElroy Dining Hall were some of the favorite places to venture out to. Eagles Nest, conveniently located j near the post office, was often the spot ' for the old habit of scoping. It was a great place to munch on a blueberry muffin and cup of coffee while check- ing out who was walking by and calling to friends. Lyons Hall was a big social place, particularly for commuters. The discarded cups and napkins became almost part of the establishment as stu- dents bustled in and out between classes. Haley House served as an action resource base promoting social justice concerns at BC. The ten member resi- dent staff shared a community living ex- perience and provided lectures, films. and workshops on a variety of contem- porary social issues, considering them primarily from the perspective of justice. The personal committment of commu- nity-living, coupled witti an active con- cern for those in our wider social spheres provided a foundation for responsive and responsible living. Some of tfie services included a net- work which provided a forum for repre- sentatives of affilliated groups on cam- pus to share information and develop skills. They had a resource center that provided information on many social justice issues and groups. They had ben-- efit coffeehouses and nights of cider and song in support of a local shelter or service organizations. Haley House was sponsored by the Chaplains Office. Murry House was the commuter cen- ter at BC. It contained meeting and function rooms, lounges, study areas, a TV, typing room and game room as well as complete kitchen facilities. The large backyard solicitated a variety of out- door activists ranging from barbecue fans to Frisbee and volleyball players. Murray House provided a place for commuters to get together for entertain- ment and relaxation outside of the classroom. Student managers were Karen Brostoski, Mike Collins and Tom Shannon. Shaw House, the Honors Program House, was located on Upper Campus. The house provided a place where stu- dents could meet with various professors and talk informally about university mat- ters. Greycliff House was the foreign lan- guage house located on Common- wealth Avenue. The requirements of this house were that the residents speak in French or Spanish. What this did was to create an opportunity to practice one ' s ability to socialize in a foreign tongue. Obviously, the rewards for this were tremendous because everyone knew that true fluency only comes when you have to speak in that tongue all of the time. This helped in the classroom as well as providing a challenge to cam- pus living, Obviously, with the abundance of uni- versity houses that were designed speci- fically with programs which gave stu- dents a chance to get together and ex- press their views, opinions, or merely provided a place to let it all hang out, these social outlets were the popular places to make that quick escape to. And so we did. Activities 213 O ' Connell House Geoff Why Geoff Why 214 Activities Geoff Why As one clearly remembers, a stroll through the Upper campus revealed several brick and cinderblock structures which hod been built in the traditional rigid manner of a dormitory building. Therefore it was always refreshing to view the stately mansion otherwise known as O ' Connell House. Positioned in the middle of upper campus, it en- hanced the atmosphere with its classic architecture, O ' Connell House was formerly the Lig- get Estate and was donated to Boston College as a gift from Cardinal O ' Con- nell in 1937. Since the fall of 1972, it served the community as a Student Union, It was operated by Boston Col- lege and funds for programming events were furnished by the Undergraduate Government of Boston College. The staff consisted of five undergradu- ates contracted and supervised by the Office of Student Programs and Re- sources. Their duties included general operation and programming of events i ' n the House. The management of O ' Connell House was o very propitious experience for students not only be- cause of Its development of future ca- reer possibilities but primarily because it contributed much to the personal grov th of the people who worked and resided there. Staff duties included arranging and scheduling events of sig- nificant variety: drama, music, film, etc. Some of the film selections for the year included: The Graduate, Bedtime for Bonzo, The Wizard of Oz, Murder And Then There Were None, The Return of the Pink Panther, The Sting and The Shining. The O ' Connell House was known for drawing in crowds of fun-loving students and offered many traditional social events such as Middle March Ball and My Mother ' s Fleabag . The former event included an interesting little means of purchasing tickets. Due to the tremendous popularity of this formal event, students were given mysterious clues prior to the sale of tickets so that only those who solved the riddles would know where the tickets were going to be sold, Fleabag was a comedy, mod- eled after the format of Saturday Night Live, which was performed by Boston College ' s own top comedians. The general uses of O ' Connell House were divided into two areas. On week nights, O ' Connell was used as a study facility, a meeting place and for special educational films, lectures and read- ings.

Thie myriad of different cultural clubs at BC proved ttiat the need for education in and ex- pression of one ' s roots was a strong con- cern of students. The diversity of the clubs ' activities showed that their mem- bers wanted to share their experiences with other students in the university. AHANA represented the interests of Black American, Native American, Asian American, and Hispanic students. The organization provided aid for those students needing academic, social or emotional support. The group spon- sored a summer orientation program to introduce freshman minority students to BC and its resources.

A series of Spanish classical films was shown and the members also gave an exhibit of hand-made garments. The members tutored Spanish-speaking stu- dents in all subjects, as well. — Colleen Seibert Activities 229 cademics Turn On To BC Academics The students of Boston College were noted for many outstanding traits over the years. Magazines listed BC as one of the top ten partying schools in the nation in the seventies. The Preppy Hand- book listed it as one of the top ten cam- puses in the eighties. And the Associ- ated Press listed its football team as number four in the country in the aca- demic year of this publication. But more attention needed to be turned to the roots of Boston College, its academic practices and standards. Boston College was recognized for its academic excellence for decades upon the commencement of the 1984- 1985 academic year. And yet the Uni- versity decided to implement changes and new standards that year to put their best foot forward as well as keep pace with the other colleges across the na- tion. The major change for the university was the inclusion of a review of each student ' s record at the end of every se- mester. The biannual review, seemingly sparked by a controversy over the aca- demic standards of undergraduate athletes, was the creation of a commit- tee on academics and extracurricular activities. It was explained in a memo- randum to all students in late September by Father Fahey, Academic Vice Presi- dent. Students may be dismissed if they accumulate excessive deficiencies (grade of either W or F] or if their cumula- tive average falls below the required minimum, ' the memorandum from Fahey explained. The required minimum grade point average was set at 1 .667. In other words, students could participate in extracur- ricular activities until their GPA fell to 1.666. Not until three deficiencies occured would participation in activi- ties be disallowed. Student reaction to the new policy story cent, on 234 232 Academics Makis lotridis Peter Klidaras Academics 233 Turn On To BC Academics was surprisingly uniform. Despite a front page article in the Heights and the let- ter from Father Fahey the majority of stu- dents questioned were not aware of the new policy late into October and thus declined to comment on it. Students both on and off campus claimed that they received no such letter and there- fore did not understand the new policy. In other areas of academic life the university strived toward improvement of their level of academic integrity through the development and opening of the Thomas P O ' Neill Jr. Library located on middle campus. The library was dedi- cated to O ' Neill in a gala ceremony held on October 14. The new Central Library immediately became a center of activity for the student body. Students not only attended the library to study but also to meet with groups for projects or just to get out and see others. Admissions for the class of 1989 also presented an increase in the level of academics for BC. Applications reached a record high at 14,398, a 16% increase over 1 984. The SATs of the 2 ,050 chosen for the class of 1989 were 10 points higher in both math and verbal scores. Though this did not seem to be a vast change it was significant for the students and the school as a whole. The increase in the average SAT score indi- cated an increase in The ability to han- dle t e work load at BC. This allowed stu- dents more free time to participate in other activities on and off campus thus balancing their education. Members of the various honor pro- grams on campus maintained their tra- ditional standards of excellence in academics, extracurricular activities and character requirements. The honor programs in each school provided ex- ceptional students with recognition for their talent and dedication. Though all students were not be accepted into the honor societies that graced BC this was not to say thai they did not work just as hard as those who were. Virtually every major at BC pro- vided students with the opportunity to work in the field that Ihey were in- terested in entering through an in- ternship program These programs en- abled students to find out if the field they were studying was reolly for them. The honor programs, the internship programs, the new library and the stress on strong academic standards des- tined BC not only to be remembered by alumni as fun, pretty or having a great football team. Instead these programs instilled the BC community with the memory of their alma mater as a fine institute of higher learning. — Geri Murphy 234 Academics Nurse Capping Boston College School of Nursing ' s first initiation into the clinical setting began with the series of capping events. Usual- ly the nursing students had a fun filled, enthusiastic dinner dance at the Park Plaza Hotel the Saturday evening prior to capping. Parents, boyfriends and roommates v ere all invited to this ele- gant night out on the town. The Park Plaza featured a delicious gourmet din- ner, a live versatile band and a large spacious dance floor to demonstrate exotic dance steps. Most students agreed that this evening was memor- able and a stepping stone for the future. Sunday arrived soon after the viva- cious evening out. Sunday was the se- rious day — the day in which sopho- more nursing students received their caps in St. Ignatius Church and wore their clinical uniforms for the first time. A subtle feeling of accomplishment was expressed by the innocent smiles on stu- dent nurse ' s face. Guest speakers, sig- nificant nursing faculty members and a Jesuit priest spoke to the audience and complimented the student ' s achieve- ments. Finally each student ' s name was called — the procession and distribu- tion of caps began, the names were called alphabetically, each row assembled itself in the aisle simul- taneously. Friends among nursing stu- dents applauded each other as the cap was placed on the student ' s head, a professional picture was taken, an in- dividual candle was lit and a long stem- med rose was handed to the newly capped nursing student. After everyone was capped, a farewell speech was heard. Everyone was invited to a reception in St. Thomas More Hall. The nursing students filed out and a SON portrait was taken on St. Ignatius Church steps. Students spent the rest of the day celebrating with fami- ly and friends. This was certainly a meaningful event which was cherished throughout a student nurse ' s career. — Emilie Ann Blais 1 . ..Mi ■ Mark Mendolla 236 Academics Mark Mendolla Academics 237 Where Should We Meet? Did you ever plan to study end find that ttie spot was already occupied? It l appened more thian once, didn ' t it? You wall ed around thie entire campus and still found yourself out of luck, Ttiat was probably because you were checking out all the standard locations where people traditionally study. Perhaps the third floor in Gasson? The lab rooms in Higgins? Or the most for- midable spot on campus, the library? Chances of finding space in these places was slim, especially around fin- als time. In accordance with this fact, many students managed to find refuge in the most unusual places imaginable. Take some pointers from these ingenious stu- diers. After all, how many times hove you found the nearest tree occupied with scholarly BC students? How about your cor? IVIaybe your bathroom, maybe not, but if you wait long enough, there ' s a good chance it ' ll be free soon . . .

Books! tis a dull and Geoff Why Academics 239 Teach Your Children Well Boston College faced the transition of the passing on of a number of dedi- cated professors during the 1984-85 school year. Chestnut Hill was unfortun- ate enough to lose the services of four good men, John A. McCartfiy SJ, James P, Larkin SJ, William Griffin, and Richard Shea SJ. Fr, McCarthy had been with Boston College since 1938, and he was part of the Philosophy Department. He was also dean of the College of Arts and Scien- ces from 1960 to 1964. Fr. McCarthy was laureated as BC ' s first Campus Counci I ' s Teacher of the Year Award, and an hon- orary Doctor of Letters in 1972. Larkin died at the age of 74 after a long illness on August 18, 1984. Larkin dedicated his life to Boston College and also to the Middle East. Larkin spent mis- sionary time in Iran and also Iraq. Griffin passed away on August 2, 1984 after serving as Associate Professor in the School of Education at Boston Col- lege. Griffin was a World War II veteran who arrived at the BC School of Educa- tion in 1964. He was also Chairman of the Division of Education Administration and Super ision while at BC. Father Shea passed away on March 25, 1984 after serving as University chap- lain, and literature, philosophy and the- ology. Shea was also a chaplain in the US Air Force, and then he became Uni- versity chaplain until 1969. An era of good has passed and these men will be sorely missed. They were great contributors to the BC as well as the worid community. May they rest in peace. 240 Academics Dean Henry J. Mc As the 1984 academic year ended we were saddened by the news that Dean Henry J. McMahon was ill, but the sadness was tempered by the word that he was recovering. When later we learned that he had died, the news struck with the suddeness as though he were the victim of an accident. This was so, I suppose, because no one could Imagine Boston College without Henry. The event prompted an outpouring of sympathy and a tribute rare even for BC. Those of us associated with the University in all of the various ways it was served were joined by students and alumni who remembered how they were served by Henry. More impressive perhaps were the many whose association with the University as students, faculty and ad- ministrators ceased years ago. Thus it was that Boston College, through its ste- wards of the present and past, paid homage to one whose stewardship had been served so faithfully. Now that some time had elapsed and we reflected to Dean McMahon ' s death, our sadness in his absence was t empered by memories of him. Each of us remember him in his or her own way, I suppose, but it must be the recollection of incidents in our lives that were shared with him that we recall often. These re- membrances were an occasion of ple- asure for many. Those former students whose encounters with him were not the occasion for joy at the time will remem- ber him now in a different light, the illu- mination of mature experience, My memory of Henry covered many years. The first was as a classmate in the senior philosophy courses of the time. I did not know him, but recognized in him an un- usual man, an opinion that was con- firmed when he was elected to the Alpha Sigma Nu, It was not until years later that a close association with him. developed. As a department chairman I had many opportunities to observe him as a dean. Students who sought permis- sion for one reason or another might be surprised to learn that the Dean and I had many telephone conversations as he sought some way round a regulation that would benefit the student without doing violence to the rules or the Dean ' s keen sense of duty. It was through these conversations that I came to appreci- ate his devotion to maintaining high standards yet with a deep concern for the welfare of all students, for whom he had deep affection. 1 missed him at lunch this year. We often met there and enjoyed conversa- tion with colleagues. The topics were many and varied, often serious, but in- terspersed with humor. Henry thoroughly enjoyed a good laugh. Fresh in my memory also were the many occasions as we returned to our offices from McEI- roy that students stopped to inform their Dean that they had been admitted to low school or hod other good news to relate. These were happy occasions for them and for me as an observer. Be- cause of his position Henry served on several boards and committees where his interest, close attention and dili- gence were apparent to all. He was re- quired also to attend many other func- tions of a more social nature where he always gracious and attentive to all. The faculty members and administrators alike enjoyed his company as he obviously enjoyed theirs. At the Commencement Ceremonies this year for the first time in many years Henry would not be present to carry the University Mace to lead the procession. I shall remember then what I had often thought over the years, How appropri- ate that one so dedicated to University and its ideals should have this honor. Alumni, faculty members and adminis- trators shared this opinion 1 am sure. 1 used many commonplace words and phrases to describe Henry J. McMa- hon, They were all accurate, I believe, but they were the words that he would have used under similar circumstances OS we shared a common heritage, edu- cation and culture. Among other virtues that were emphasized was reticence. To say that Henry displayed a concern for the ideals of Boston College and the students of Alma Mater is unfair to his memory. It would be more accurate to say that Henry had a deep and abiding love for Boston College and all who were associated with it, but certainly not the least, the students of Alma Mater. — Professor Robert O ' Malley John McDorgh Theology professor John McDargh built o strong reputotion among stu- dents for teaching one of the finest the- ology courses on campus, Faith and Identity. Faith and Identity was a small and highly popular class. Obtain- ing a place on McDargh ' s Faith and Identity syllabus was a difficult trick in- deed, But for those who did make their way into professor McDargh ' s course the effort proved to be well worth it. The main goal of the Faith and Identity course was to encourage the growth of the bond between the stu- dents ' spiritual and personal facets, The course acheived that encouragement leading to growth for most of its students in many ways. Readings such as the biography of Malclom X by Alex Haley helped students see that others also faced the crisis of reconciling their faith with their self identity at some point in their lives. Additionally, the various read- ings offered different solutions to this re- conciliation thus assuring students that no one way was right, The second method of prompting this growth was through the keeping of a journal. Students were required to keep weekly entries in the journals. They re- corded events and the spiritual and emo- tional effects of those events. Thiis con- crete account often helped students to gain perspective on where their faith was going and who they were, The class discussions provided the stu- dents with a forum to voice their experi- ences in and listen to the experiences of others. But the prevailing and best method of drawing out the grov h of the student was found In the teaching methods of professor McDargh himself, His openmindedness spread to the stu- dents. Every student ' s opinion was wel- comed by every other student as a re- flection of oneself. But even more impor- tantly students could tell from professor McDargh ' s mannerisms that he was not playing a part. Professor John McDargh truly cared and diligently worked to help students to learn the experiences of others, to search for their self identity and their beliefs and to put those pieces together. Makis latridis 242 Academics Donald Fishman Makis latridis Dr Donald Fishman, chairman of the communications department, taught what was to many communications stu- dents their most memorable course. Dr. Fishman ' s course lived in the minds of his students for the decades following its completion because each student was required to participate in a group project with five other students, selected by Dr. Fishman. The project required the students to write, design and perform a skit. During the course of producing these skits however the students were also required to analyze each other ' s behavior in the group. And of course, only one A would be given. Imagine it. What fun. Six college stu- dents thrown together with a little less than a month to write the script, design the sets and co stumes, and learn their lines, (Where are the cue cards!? I forgot this part!] IVIeanwhile, they were all ana- lyzing every word and every movement each one made. Even things that some- one didn ' t do were recorded and picked apart, And each group member knew that while they were analyzing you, you were analyzing them. It seemed as though analysis was just what the doctor (Fishman of course] ordered, IVIany students were on the verge of needing therapy following the skits. And if they weren ' t, they looked as though they might. The last four weeks of the semester boasted speech com- munications students dressed as horses, tasmanian devils or the messiah standing in the hallway on the third floor of Lyons, blushing appropriately as others gaped and giggled on their way to class. Despite the embarrassment most students admit that they learned a great deal about group communica- tion through the project. They grew to understand where they fit into a group and what other types of people they could expect to find in the groups they would work in, A sigh of relief was expelled by most students after completing the Man and Communications course required, de- signed, and produced by Dr. Fishman because once it was out of the way Dr. Fishman became a friend rather than a foe. He was a valuable ally indeed. Dr. Fishman was available to all students in the communications department not only for advice but also for contacts. Internships as comfortable as well worn boots were set up by Dr. Fishman on a regular basis. But if the position was not working out he was always ready to lis- ten with a well trained ear. Academics 243 Eugene Bronste in The sign on the door of Fulton 301G read Eugene Bronstein, Director of Hon- or ' s Progrann, Sohool of IVlanagement, Students were in line in front of the door, Why? Because as a marketing natural, Bronstein knew how important it was to be visible. Fortunately, this was totally for the BC students ' benefit, Bronstein, a History and Economics graduate of Dartmouth College, re- cieved his MBA from Harvard Business School. After graduation he began working in New York City in the market- ing management program at Abraham and Strauss. He soon moved up to the position of buyer and eventuolly came to Boston where he spent twenty years working for Filenes. As of 1985, Bronstein had left the business world and had been sharing his experiences with DC students for nine years. In the fall of 1983 he was appointed as Director of the SOM Honors Program. In his nine years at BC, Bronstein soon established himself as a lecturer who clearly believed that the ultimate re- ward in any teaching situation was the self growth of the student. His sincere concern was not just limited to the class- room but extended to long after the class hours had concluded. How often had students thanked him for his time to which he would emphatically reply, raising his eyebrows and peering over the edge of hornrimmed glasses, Don ' t thank me for my time, you ' re paying for iti In the classroom and out one often heard Prof. Bronstein expound on his theory of the well rounded student. Sur- rounded by the business minds he would constantly antagonize the stu- dents, challenging them to experience areas out ot the traditional SOM arena. It ' s important to me to see that the stu- dent Is sensitive to areas which are beyond pure academics for It is the hu- man aspect on one ' s personality and not the mechanical training, which makes a successful manager. It is said that a teacher often identifies with the student who best harmonizes with his personal values and beliefs. Therefore, it was no surprise to hear Bron- stein relate the characteristics of his most memorable student, A young man . . . with a zest for accomplishment . . . always questioning and provoking . . . great listener . . . compassionate and anxious to accomplish without being overly selfish, Sounds a lot like Eugene Bronstein. Makis latridis Professor Christopher Wilson hod been a member of Boston College ' s English department for five years. Af- ter receiving his Bachelor of Arts in English at Princeton University, he vjen] on to obtain his master ' s degree in American Studies at Yale. He had taught required courses for English majors, including Critical Reading and Writing and Practice of Criticism, English electives in American litera- ture and graduate courses for Ameri- can Studies, As well as teaching. Professor Wil- son was also the head of the Ameri- can Studies Program at Boston Col- lege, The masters program was not just the study of American history or American literature. It was the study of the American Society. On the un- dergraduate level, there was also an American Studies minor. It involved taking courses which focused on the American society in various disci- plines. These included English, Histo- ry, Sociology, Political Science and Fine Arts, By taking these courses, stu- dents obtained a broader perspec- tive of American culture. Professor Wilson saw the English de- partment as a strong branch of the university. With many talented profes- sors and many courses available, he felt the English department had a lot to offer. Though many courses were similar, each professor added their own style while at the same time meeting a goal set by the depart- ment. This diversity could have been extremely advantagious to English majors because many were not sure what they wanted to do once they graduated. Because the require- ments were not as structured, stu- dents majoring in English could obtain a well-rounded liberal arts ed- ucation. Professor Wilson had seen subtle as well as obvious changes within the university. The most obvious being the exposure the university had recieved greatly due to the sports program. BC had come into the limelight. Perhaps the most significant change he noticed could be seen after closer analysis of the student body. Students were no longer the stereotypical low- er middle class commuters. Boston College had much broader horizons. On the whole. Professor Wilson saw many advantages to being a student here. The student body was diverse which adds depth. People were ex- ceptionally friendly. And because of its connection to Boston, it was an especially rich environment for those interested in American Studies. — Roberta BIaz Academics 245 Peter Kreeft Peter Kreeft ( that ' s Kreeft as n Bee- thoven ] has been with Boston College since 1965. Since that tinne, his reputa- tion as a professor with new angles on old subjects, has earned him the respect not only of his students, but of his peers as well. Before joining the faculty at Boston College, Kreeft graduated from Calvin College in 1959 with a degree in Philoso- phy. At Fordham, he received a mas- ter ' s degree in 1961 and his doctorate in 1965. He was a man with many ideas about the various subject matter he discussed. Always entertaining and frequently amusing, he at times surprised himself to discover an irony previously gone un- noticed. Here he would stop, reflect on the new discovery, smile, and move on. Not strictly a professor, Kreeft has tried his hand at writing more than a few times. In 1976 his first book Love is Stronger than Death which deals with the five faces of death — enemy, friend, lover, mother, and stranger. Another re- lated issue, namely heaven, is a fre- quent topic in Kreeft ' s books as illus- trated by Heaven, The Heart ' s Deepest Longing [1980], Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Heaven, But Never Dreamed of Asking (1982] and Between Heaven and Hell (1982]. This last book, by far his most popular and successful work, is presented in conversation form with C.S. Lewis, John F. Kennedy and Aldous Hux- ley making up the cast of characters. These three great men become en- gaged in a conversation about the identity of Jesus while waiting between heaven and hell. This book in wonder- fully satyrical as well as thought provok- ing. The following two works make great use of one of Keeft ' s most admired phi- losophers, Socrates. In The Unaborted Socrates (1983], the subject of abortion is discussed while the values are the topic in his latest The Best Things in Life (1984]. Constantly on the go, you may see him walking swiftly through the dust- bowl on his way to his next lecture, off to teach students what he often learns through writing. Being a major factor in his life, he has other writing projects cur- rently in the planning stages which are sure to be both intriguing and stimu- lating. As an associate professor here at Bos- ton College for many years, Peter Kreeft has made a very real impact on many students ' lives, both spiritually and intel- lectually. Having been a student of his in more than one course, I can testify to this and thank him for his invaluable insight into many of the complexities which confront our daily lives. — Sue Spence Peter Klidaras 246 Academics Richard Hughes The smoke from his pipe would often f i II the a i r outsi de Co mey 459 creoti ng a most distinguishoble oromo. For those passing by, for those returning a second or third time, the scent wos more then just a signal. Indeed, it was a kind of invitation, a welcoming to a world few visit, a world filled with old men and old women, fresh roses and broken hearts, a world unconscious to many but very conscious to one man. Yes, Prof. Hughes was in his office. Resting in his favorite arm chair, he sot still staring into a puff of white smoke produced by a small wooden pipe. In his lap lay a book creased open with the title The Rainbow by D.H. Law- rence. If is a book he has read from cover to cover many times by an author he has studied and identified with for many years. Sharing Lawrence ' s view with in- tense passion, Hughes sits thinking about ideas few ottempt to understand — ideas which are best described as those one not just learns but feels. One can sense this approach by being in his classroom. But to even begin to com- prehend it, one must get to know Hughes, that is, become friends with the man. Why does Hughes regard Lawrence ' s work with such high esteem? Perhaps both men share a similar outlook. Law- rence once spoke of an emotion essen- tial to life and relationships. Many like to call this emotion love, but for Lawrence it was destined to remain unnamed. Perhaps it is this mystery that disturbs Hughes and drives him to explore a new understanding of the word through the unconscious mind. Nevertheless one need only be in the same room with the man to sense a rare quality in him. Unfor- tunately, there is no English word to de- scribe this attribute. There is, however, an old Greek word that comes close. It is called agape. Agape is love in action, that is, a love for what you are doing. This attribute strongly reflects Hughes ' overall character, and it is something his stu- dents have sensed for a long time, Hanging on one of the walls in his office is a large abstract painting. It is a piece of art composed by many hands and by many minds. It was made for him by a group of his students, In a strange way, it is symbolic of the collective effort of all his pupils, an effort which Prof. Hughes inspired by his teachings in the classroom. Like him, it is very colorful and very alive. Peter Klldaras — P ler Klidoros Academics 247 O ' Neill Library The wind swept through the plaza of O ' Neill Library on October 14 with a sharp biting edge, But the bitter weather could not quelch the rising warmth that grew among the 1,500 person crowd gothered on the steps for the library dedication ceremonies. With all the pomp and circumstance required for such a ceremony, the pro- cession from Gasson tower began. A group of student leaders led the aca- demic procession of deans, faculty, and trustees. With the 1984 political campaigns at a high point, the crowd sparkled with prominent political figures like John Kerry. But there was no cam- paigning today, Today had been set aside to honor Thomas P, O ' Neill, Jr., BC ' 36, Speaker of the House of Repre- sentatives, husband, father and grand- father. Speakers President J. Donald Monon, SJ; Prof. Albert Duhamel (En- glish); Ernest Beyer, president of the Car- negie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, and Thomas O ' Connell, University librarian honored O ' Neill, the new library and the Jesuit tradition of excellence In education, Although there were some people who joked that the library should perhaps be named after the 1985 Heisman trophy winner, Doug Flutie, it was clear that the library had been properly named as Speaker O ' Neill concluded his speech, I have declined many offers to name buildings after me, Quite honestly, I do not believe in naming them after public officials who are still in office. But this time I mode an exception because this college has meant so much to me, to my family and to my community, I am proud of its post and I am proud to play a part in its future, I am particularly grateful that all of you came here today to join in this memorable dedication. Thank you and God bless you. 248 Academics A New Beginning Academics 249 Foreign Studies Makis latridis 250 Academics Spending a semester abroad was probably one of the best moves I could have made during my college career. Of course that didn ' t go for everyone but for an English major to be let loose in the streets of London, England, it was close to heaven, Life wasn ' t always bliss because, quite naturally, there were cultural adaptations to make. For example, one had to adjust to the British accent and often times it seemed as if they were speaking in a com- pletely dif- fer e n t tongue. Also, al- though the stu- dents seemed a little un- friendly at first, after a few pints of ale at the univer- sity pub, everyone warmed up a bit. Yes, Brit- ish people drank tea, A lot. But they drank coffee too. [Sur- prise?] It was very social and polite to offer a visi- tor a cup of tea or coffee . Yes, we LiseGirard did that here in America too but if I were to go over and visit the guys next door to my Hillside apartment I don ' t think they would have asked be if I wanted to have tea. In fact, the first time I was at a friend ' s apartment in London and he asked me if I wanted to have a cup with him, I laughed in his face. It seemed so, well, so adultlike! Talk about politically aware. My American buddies and I had a hard time keeping up with the Brit ' s well in- formed barbs against our political ac- tivities. Frantically, we searched the headlines of The Times and The Guardian and whatever other news- paper we could get a hold of just so we could mutter some sort of intelligent re- ply to their well directed questions. Although the continuous periods of cloudy, damp days could put one in moods of depression, a jog out in Hyde Park could always lift one ' s spirits. Or a jaunt down Ox- ford Street or a stroll through the Na- tional Gal- lery on a rainy day made one realize that Lon- don was a city filled with eye- opening Culture. It wasn ' t en- dowed with all the comforts of home but it cer- tainly was a very rich learning e X p e r i- ence. I ' ll never forget my return from my seven week spring vacation that was spent travelling in Europe. Having spent the lost three weeks speaking only German I was a little confused about languages. So when 1 handed the British Officer my passport i asked him, in clear German, if he spoke English. He looked at me strangely, stared at the American seal on my passport, looked at my suddenly embarrassed expression, (I had realized my space maneuver], and laughed. Yes love, he replied, Welcome back. What a guy. What a country! — Tania Zielinski Academics 251 Joseph Levine One could clearly see that Josephi S. Levine was whiolly engrossed in his pro- fession. An assistant professor of Biology who graduated from Tufts and con- tinued his studies at Boston University and Harvard, Levine was involved in many writing and teaching projects out- side his work at BC, However, his home remained on the Chestnut Hill campus and Levine was very pleased that he took up residence here. During the pastten years, five of which were spent at BC, Levine had been con- ducting his major, independent study on the function and evolution of color vision in animals. Levine ' s research, pre- sented through his writings in both books and periodicals (including Scientific American), provided the scientific world with information concerning animal ' s vision while also leading to in- novations in human vision, Levine stated that his findings concerning color had much to do with how organisms in- teract with other organisms, leading to findings regarding color blindness as well as color communication when mat- ing in animals. Teaching at BC hod been a good experience for Levine. He discovered that bright people were often unin- formed on biological issues at BC. Levine felt, ' 1fiat an av ful lot [of students) have their hearts in the right places. Also, at Boston College, Levine saw stu- dents to be individuals who would play a great part in the future. This was due to the fact that they, most probably, would be well off, well educated and voting. Therefore, Levine wished to inform his students of what needed to be done concerning environmental issues. In the future, great expense and difficulty would be spent in correcting mistakes that had been made. Students must be aware of these events so that they could make educated decisions concerning future questions. Accompanying his wish to increase awareness of environmental issues, Levine also desired that students realize that learning is not a process of memor- izing. Instead it involved assimilating and digesting the material that one was fed and putting this information into practice. Levine found that the best stu- dents were those genuinely interested in the information they were studying and also intrigued with continuing investiga- tion of the subject. — Amy Seigenthaler 252 Academics Makis latridis John Heineman On a wall in professor John Heine- man ' s office, in a glass frame con- structed by h s fattier, was a German passport dated September 5, 1848 along with German identification pa- pers. They belonged to his great- grandfather, George Heineman, the first Heineman to come to America. It was Heinemon ' s ancestry that initi- ated his interest in German history — an interest he hod intensely pursued for twenty-three years as a history teacher ot Boston College. It wasn ' t until my junior year at Notre Dame when I was left S500 by my aunt that I decided to visit Germany, said Heineman. In 1958, his senior year at Notre Dome, Heineman wrote on honors thesis on The German Army in 1919 which gained him a Gulbright scholar- ship to the University of Berlin where he studied German for the first time. Now, in his office in Carney 173, amid a vast profusion of haphazardly strewn papers and some 500 bool s with well- worn pages, the former chairman of the history deportment (1970-76] spoke about his course entitled, Hitler and the Third Reich . I hod been the beneficia- ry of a broad interest in this subject. It was a fantastic atmosphere to teach in since students were not easily intimi- dated and were constantly challenging my conclusions and assumptions, said Heineman. Professor Heineman was the author of Freiher Von Neurath, suPtitled Hitler s First Foreign Mininster Py Heinemon ' s publisher who deemed it necessary to put Hitler into the title. Last summer, Heineman tool 38 stu- dents, primarily from BC, on a tour of Germany that he described as two weeks of sheer enjoyment; very stimulat- ing, My colleagues admired the cour- age I showed in taking on 38 students, he mused. Professor Heineman demonstrates a tremendous amount of enthusiasm for what he teaches, He gets involved and would go out of his way for people, said Joseph Schwegmon, 1985, one of the students who joined Heineman on the tour of Germany, Germans don ' t throw anything away. Just look at this office, Heineman joked referring to the clutter. But in a real sense perhaps he was referring to the history of the German people. — Thomas Zombito Makis latridis Academics 253 Ronald Tacelli, SJ According to Ronald Tacelli, SJ, 37, one of the youngest Jesuits at BC, Stu- dents have more of a hunger for truth and are nnore open-minded now, than his 1969 BC graduating class. We were idealists during the ' 60 ' s, myself Included, but we did one thing wrong — we were too close-minded, said the dark curly-haired Tacelli, Our opinions were hardened into absolute truths, Now, I see students who are not cynical and are genuniely searching to know the real truth, Ordained in 1982 84-85 was Father Tacelli ' s first year as a full-time assistant professor of Philosophy. It ' s a lot bigger place than I left, and a lot busier, said Tacelli of his return to BC after spending four years at the University of Toronto working on his masters and PhD. in phi- losophy and one year on a research fellowship at Oxford University. In his office in Carney 223, some 250 books were neatly arranged of which included copies of Frank Sheed ' s, What Difference Does Jesus Make?, Rous- seau s Social Contract and a Boston Globe Sunday Magazine article enti- tled, Mind, Body and Medicine , In the spring of 1985, Fr. Tacelli was teaching four corses including one on Emmanuel Kant and another on Thomas Aquinas. He also had developed a course devoted to his main field of inter- est entitled, The Mind and Its Body . My Interest in this area Is In response to the writings of contemporary scientists which denied the existence of any non- material element In human beings, said the often pensive Tacelli as he rub- bed his right palm across his forehead, There are substantial elements in a per- son that cannot be reduced to matter — those that effect our ability to know and to choose. Describing the extent of the Jesuit in- fluence on the BC campus today, Fr. Tacelli said, There Is less of a corporate Jesuit influence here simply because of sheer numbers. There are not many Jesuits, Now, the influence Is more on an individual basis. It was on April 22, 1969 during his se- nior year at BC that Fr, Tacelli was struck by the Idea that he should be a priest. If not, he said, I would not have been satisfied. In this third year as a Jesuit, Fr. Tacelli hoped that the drop in ordinations to the priesthood is not because of a lack of response to vocation, I hope that peo- ple are not denying their calling. The world will be lessened by their participation. — Thomas Zambito ' 85 254 Academics Makis latridis Amanda Houston Makis Icjtridis My physician says God gave me bad knees because he was deliberatty trying to slow me down, Amanda Hous- ton laughed. That attempt it seems was a futile one. Houston, chairperson of the Black Studies Department relaxed in her chair on a sunny afternoon in February discussing the similarities of the African and Irish cultures. There is a commonality to the oppression of the block and the Irish. We were both oppressed by the British, Houston explains. Houston sees other similarities in black and Irish history also. The Jews tend to seek power through commerce. The black and the Irish seek it through municipalities, through poli- tics. Houston is a graduate of Northeastern University. She completed her graduate studies at Harvard. As she sat in her Lyon ' s third floor office overlooking the quad she considered the role that BC played in Black Studies. Houston was impressed by the support the program received from the administration, Harvard is known for its study of Afri- can culture, Houston says. BC is noted for its study of African culture and na- tional black culture. But no college has specialized in local culture, white or black. BC is moving into that vacuum. Houston, former Assistant Director of Admissions at Harvard had been at Bos- ton College for five years in 1985. She taught Perspectives on Black women in America, American Labor and the Black Worker, Organized Labor, and Issues of Civil Rights. As the mother of two, Houston was concerned by the arrest of Harian Jones a Boston University student. Jones was arrested by BC cam- pus police for being a disorderiy per- son when he helped BC sophomore Denise Paquin unfuri a banner reading, Paying $7,500 to an ultraconservative multimillionaire is a social injustice, dur- ing a speech by William Buckley. Pa- quin was not arrested. Never, in my wildest dreams, said Houston, did I imagine that this could happen at BC in 1984. It shocked the local black community. It shocked Har- lan, As middle class blacks our children were not raised with the awareness that there are still people, in pockets out there that would treat blacks like that. I look back at the 60 ' s and wonder. What did we go through it for? The struggle for freedom is never won. It has to be fought for, constantly. And it is not over. It is not over yet. — Geri Murphy BOSTON COLLEGE CHESTNUT HILL.

However with the be- ginning of the 1984-85 year, students were faced with yet another place where social Interaction Just seemed like the natural thing to do (as opposed to studying of course). Ironically, this new social area was conveniently situated in front of the brand new BC library. Before long. The Thomas P. O ' Neill library had established itself as a mecca of social activity. An hour spent there in the morning resulted in an hour of seeing everyone you knew either walking left or right across the library terrace. ' Tip ' s Place , as it was fondly referred to, was the newest building on the Heights in 1984-85, In between such gothic greats such as Devlin Hall and Saint Mary ' s it looked a little out of place at first. However, once you grew accustomed to its modem design you appreciated the old traditions of Boston College College that were sur- rounding a building which was likely to es- tablish some new traditions of its own. The architect that designed Tip ' s Place wasn ' t intending on having his structurally significant parts used for such insignificant behavior. The pillars in the front of the li- brary, which were designed so they would face McElroy and make the library a part of middle campus, were used for leaning against to do one or more of the three S ' s: study, sunbathe or snooze. The benches on the terrace were also used for these things, but they were mostly used as an integral part of the ail-American pasttime of peo- ple watching . This place was great for social activity because when you stood on the top step, everyone that walked by was so easy to see. It became the place to meet someone on the way to lunch or on the way back up or down to the dorm. On a warm Indian summer day, it was hard to believe that all the students sprawled across the benches didn ' t have ten-o-clock classes to attend. Spirits were high and conversations abounded. This warm scene appeared to be endless but when the January winds started blow- ing across those brick walkways, students made their route across as fast as possible. There was no more leaning against the pil- lars and no more people watching . In- stead, there were the quick meetings inside the foyer of the library. However, as soon as those first rays of sun- shine appeared on the bricks in the spring, BC ' ers were anxious to get themselves back outside of Tip ' s Place and to return to the sunny activity after a long winter of hiberna- tion. — Susan Towey LAUREN E.

They were worn on rainy days, cloudy days and hazy days. They were worn to parties, semiformals and the Rat. Like many other things their main function seemed to have gotten lost in the shuffle. They were an accessory, a part of your wardrobe. Shades said a lot about your personal- ity. There was the stud with his black way- farers made popular by Jake, Elwood and Tom Cruise; the voluptuous blonde with the great tan and bright yellow rims (to accen- tuate the tan — as if it needed it!!]; the nerdy freshman with his clip-ons attached to his bi-focals; the girl with the red shades propped on her head who seemed to be saying, I don ' t care what they look like on my face as long as they look good on my head ; the girl with her flouresent green shades that matched her flouresent green socks, . .a slave to fashion; the guy with the mirrored shades . . . you could never tell where his eyes were wandering. Shades were funny things. They seemed to create whole personality around a person. When shades were worn personalities could shift from wimp to hard guy, drip to intellectual, off the wall to laid back. Some of the BC students were avid collectors of shades. They had every color and variety that could be imagined, big ones, little ones, grey ones, blue ones. Others couldn ' t keep their hands on a pair of sun glasses for more than 24 hours if you paid them to. They would buy ttiem at roon ard lose ttiem at six. Then ttiey would buy anottier pair and promptly sit on thiem. No matter wtiot kind or color, stxxJes were a glaring reflection of your personality. LILY M.

He was the one who set you up with the gorgeous blonde for Screw Your Roommate. She was the one who called from work when she was bored, He was the guy you went home with over breal s because you couldn ' t go home. These were your roommates. During college, they played a very Important role in your lives. Whether you lived with the same one for all four years or whether you had a different one each year, they knew you in a unique way, They knew how you handled pressure. They could tell when you needed to talk and when you wanted to be left alone. And, they knew how bad you looked in the moming. It was a special relationship. She wasn ' t your sister and he wasn ' t your brother so you didn ' t feel as free to take the same liberties that you might with a sibling. It was a relationship that required much give and take. It taught most of us a valu- able lesson in compromise. After all, in many cases you were just two people thrown together by fate from different comers of the world or just different parts of the east coast. Who could forget ali those, Wake me up when you get out of the showerl , notes you found on the bathroom sink. Or all those times she dragged you all over Boston looking for the right dress. Or all the times he stumbled in at 3:00 a.m. just as you ' d fallen asleep (crashing into the garbage can that had been in the same spot all year). Or all the times she took you to breakfast because you couldn ' t find your points. Or all the times he said Don ' t worry about it. I ' ll spot you a ten, Or all the Sundays you spent together . . . making repairs from the party the night before, Or all the afternoon hoop-games at the plex. Or all the times she bor- rowed your red sweater. Or all the times you came home from a long night of studying to the wel- comed greeting of We ' ve been waiting for you . . , let ' s goto M.A. ' s for awhile, Through it all, they weren ' t just your roomnnates, ttiey were your friends, too. And, wtx3t woukd you have done wittxxjt ttiem? Who else could put up v tth your aazy quirks and bad hobits? Whettier you were like day and night or two of a kind, just ttie word roonn- motes gave connotations of a unique relationship.

Cheryl jumps up , . . Hello? HI!!! , she squeals excitedly while the heads of her five roommates drop back down to their books. What was more pleasing than answering the phone and hearing the voice of a hometown friend on the other end of the line? It was a feeling right up there with smelling Mom ' s cooking as you walked in the door, or running into an old friend at a hometown hangout. But somehow, phone calls were more endearing. Although the miles separating you from home seemed endless, the voice of an old friend could temporarily bridge the distance. So, what ' s up? Oh, not much! I talked to Lisa last week. She wants to tranfer to UNH so she ' ll be road-tripping soon. I ' m psyched to go into Boston with her. Andrew called a while back. Soccer is going well but he ' s still look- ing for the perfect woman. Got a letter from Lynn. She and Doug are the epitome of the happy newiyweds . She mentioned that Debbie and Andy are still going out . . . some things never change. Got a letter from Robyn. Eric was here when we played Army. He was starting. He asked about you, I knew that would make you happy. Haven ' t heard much from Glen. We keep missing each others ' phone calls. Meg has on inter- view with IBM over Christmas break. She ' s going to be a nervous wreck so brace your- self. Steve got into Notre Dame ' s grad school but he ' s still waiting to hear from Georgetown. Saw Tim last week. He ' s hob- bling around on crutches because he broke his leg wrestling with Bob . . . Memories can bring back oil sorts of txDr- ror stories that somehow linked themselves to that wonderful invention, the telephione. What about the time when your roommate accidentally tripped over the phone cord and broke her ankle? And if that wasn ' t enough, the phone broke too. That meant days of hearing the phone ring and not be- ing able to hear the person on the other end. Talk about frustration!!! Or then there was the inevitable busy sig- nal. It seemed that the first thing someone always did when they called was to com- plain about how long it took to get through to the line. Well, there was no way of getting post that problem because who could help sheer popularity?! The worst situation was expecting the phone coll of the evening , , , wondering if he or she had forgotten to coll . , , watching the clock in your bedroom . . . waiting for your roommmote to get off the phone witti the friend from Economics class (couldn ' t they discuss this in class??) , . . waiting . . . impatiently waiting . . . and suddenly the phone rings . . , you let your roommate an- swer, holding your breath and listening for your name.

When you were study- ing for your.calc final, you thought this mo- ment would never ar- rive. Everyone experienced those I cannot wait to go homel moments: having waited for the bus in °20 weather, opened the refrigerator to find it lacked all the things you craved most, or woken to the sound of a fire alarm at 4AM. During first semester the desire and the need to go home were much greater than during second semes- ter. How many times did you hear friends and roommates scream I can ' t wait til Thanksgiving! The thought of being home, having spent time with family and friends, helped you get through the weeks. Christmas break was always fun. It was four weeks of vegetation and catching up on the soaps. For some, it was four weeks of wort ing to earn spending money for second semester. One tended to forget he ' s home . . . living under mom and dad ' s roof , one had to conform to the rules again. What was home without some yelling from mom? If a curfew was broken, mom still sat by the door and worried.

CELAYA School of Management BS Economics LAURA CELU Arts Sciences AB English In Search of the Great Pumpkin Halloween, It was just one of those days that brought out the child In all of us much the same way that the Grinch and Rudolf did. Every year as those Christmas classics rolled around students would gatherto see Hermie the misfit elf with a burning desire to be a dentist or Little Cindy Lu Hoo {who was no more than two) who caught the Grinch in the act. By the same accord you would see BCers dressed up on Octo- ber 31 In assorted costumes, Childhood days of plastic masks with two eyeholes poked out and the little orange pumpkin for carrying treats were long gone for us. We had more mature ways of celebrating. During the grade school days the selection of costumes left much to be de- sired; Little Red Riding Hood, Snow White, Batman and Robin. College students made use of all their resources to come up with interesting get-ups. There was the doctor will- ing to examine any young lady and the priest hearing the true confessions In the comer and the ladies of the evening selling their wares and bums with their trusty brown paper bags. Given Vr e chance every college student had their own creative flair. Perhaps one of the biggest goofs though was for BC to schedule parents weekend for the one traditionally reserved fa Halbween. Was ttxi supposed to stop ttie sludents from dressing up or something? Well, who knows why they did it. As Linus knows there is really no standing in the way of a sincere Haloween and so parents weekend or no parents weekend the BC undergrads donned their traditionally out- rageous Halloween garb and invited Mom and Dad to join the party. Oh well, so much for the party. It was tough to understand why Mom and Dad didn ' t appreciate Kegs and Eggs, one of the finer delicacies in BC life. But since it wasn ' t their cup of tea there was no sense trying to force it down their throat, go outtobreakfasti What a fantastic idea. There was this great place right behind Kenmore square called the Empire Deli. They ' d love it. Eeeeeeeeekl mother screamed as Dracula pressed his nose against hers. I want to suck your blood.

CONIGLIARO SctvDol of Marxagement BS Computer Scler ce Marketing Makis latridis Frittering Boston College students, like other stu- dents had a lot of spare time. Actually, it vy asn ' t spore time at all. It was time that should have been spent on the iDooks. Many students were unsure of just exactly what spare time was. Many actually didn ' t think they had any. These people seemed to create it to fulfill the lack they thought they had. This was the phenomenon known as Wtterlng , Basically there were two main classes of fritters: person-based and social- relations based. These fritters seemed much more com- mon than originally thought, It was difficult to estimate just how much time was actu- ally frittered away but it seemed to total a hefty sum by the end of one wor1 week. Person-based frittering was done alone. By believing one will wake up after a cold stiower or by taking a walk outside, one had justified to himself that these were in- centives to help him study. Ordering p ' tzza was another great fritter. One wasted an Inconcievable amount of time just trying to track down one or two more hungry souls to split the cost. Once the call had been placed, one couldn ' t possibly expect to get any work done with visions of greasy, luke-warm pizza sliding down the throat. A lot of these Ideas were simply attempts to combat the age-old student enemy of fatigue. The most famous and certainly the most widely used fritter was the I ' ll get up early In the morning when I ' ll be able to work better fritter. Some other person- based fritters included the focus on your past achievements or the rest on your lau- rels fritters. These occurred when people decided not to study for a test because they had done okay on the last one with a minimal amount of effort, But pertiaps the most popular form of frittering was sleep. Anytime, anywhere. . .that was always the perfect time and placel The reasoning be- hind this was that you ' d be more refreshed afterwards. The second major class of fritters was the social-based fritter. These employed other students in the actual process of avoiding school work. Included in these social- based fritters was the infamous group dis- cussion. This involved students getting together under the false pretext of studying. Everything from how difficult the particular course was to plans for the upcoming weekend were discussed. When studying was actually accomplished, the meeting served another purpose. It allowed a stu- dent the opportunity to find out how the others students in the class were doing and to compare it to their own progress, or lack there of. When students chose to compare their wot1 with that of others, they usually looked for someone they knew was not as far advanced as they were. Now he wouldn ' t feel as guilty about frittering his spare time away. Even though many peo- ple felt that the group was rewarding. It really wasn ' t unless everyone was willing to wortc. What ended up happening many times was that students would start out dis- cussing the question or problem at hand and one thing would lead to another. Sud- denly you were discussing the Bruce Springteen concert. Frittering was an art. And no one could find more ways to waste time In a justifiable way then B,C, students.

With studying, partying, eating, etc., who could find eight consecutive hours to devote to sleep? Sometinnes you couldn ' t even sleep when you wanted to, taking the noise factor into consider- ation, But, most resourceful Boston College stu- dents could find time for a nap now and then. Where was the best place to catch up on some sleep? On a nice sunny day , who could resist those rays calling you to the dustbowl? Why not? You had an hour to kill between classes. Once the stream of students rushing to class died down, you felt yourself dozing off . . . after what seemed like ten minutes but in reality had been forty-five, you woke up just in time to get to class. Another exciting fiflv minutes in Shakespearean Lit. You took your coat off, pulled out the old note- book as the prof sat up on the table and prepared to lecture on the murder of Julius Caesar, Just as Caesar headed off to the Senate, you felt the fa- tigue setting in . , . yawn ... not a good sign. You propped the elbow in its stategic position, rested your chin In your palm. , , suddenly the eyelids just became to heavy. You thought to yourself, That ' s the last time I ' m going to MA ' s after the Rati! Your mind drifted off to a hundred different places. Sud- denly, a startling head-drop awoke you. I can ' t believe I fell asleep. The prof was now talking about Mark Anthony ' s funeral oration to Caesar. You slept through the entire murder. No biggy. I ' ll just go over that scene at the library. The Tip , What better place to catch some Z ' s . Those chairs were just too comfortablelll You could walk through at any given time and see people sleeping with their feet propped up, their books in their laps and their heads resting on the back of the chair. Many had probably been sleeping for hours. Somehow, with a few Z ' s here and a few Z ' s there, students managed to accumulate a de- cent amount of sleep between Sunday and Thurs- day. Ah, all rested up . . . just in time for the weekend. — Roberta Blaz A Nap ... the pause that refreshes Mary Leonard CATHERINE P, CONNOLLY Arts Sciences AB Speech Communication JOSEPH P.

It was two minutes in the life of Harold Dodge, the pho- tographer from Yeartxjok Associates. He graced McElroy 103, the yearbook office, for five weeks, Monday through Friday, 8;30AM to 5;30PM, taking pictures of the close to two thousand seniors who wanted their picture in their yearbook. Always cheerful, always with a sarcastic quip to make someone crack a natural smile. All those pictures, he must have taken thou- sands of BC seniors over the years. A true pro, he always managed to position your head, so you couldn ' t see the zit on your forehead.

DALTON Arts Sciences BS Biology Pre-Medical 290 Seniors Just Friends Boys were boys and girls were girls. Though there was something unique about spending the day shopping with the girls or watching a football game with the guys, there was also something special about guy-girl friendships. Two guys, as close as they might have been, didn ' t often have deep talks. Generally, they knew each other so well that anything one was feeling about girls, school, or just life was known but not discussed, Advice about ever thing and anything was often asked In a lighthearted fashion, Girls, on the other hand, did spend a lot of time talking. Many times it was trivial gossip but many hours were also spent on late right talks. Who can forget some of those 3;00 A.M. — after M.A. ' s chats. Some of the most honest talks occurred when the buzz hadn ' t quite worn off. Relationships between guys and girls were often harder to come by. Sure everyone had their pla- tonlc friends they could eat lunch with or have a few laughs with during class to break the monot- ony, but how many opposite-sex friends could you stay up all night talking with? It was so different from same-sex friendships. You both had to pass the stage successfully to have a strong relation- ship, The stage being the point In the relationship when you both knew you were just good friends . When you were just getting to know someone, of course you went through the period of second guessing . After all, you got along great ... did you like him her? Did he she like you? The question stared you In the face, No , you thought to your- self, things are great the way they are. It may have taken a long time but once passed that stage , you knew you had something great. Something that can only be shared between friends. More effort had to be put Into a guy-girl friendship. Two guys or two girls could become great friends In a matter of weeks . . , common Interests, common views, common experiences. A guy and a girl had to cultivate the relationship more carefully. The interests and the views which sparked the friendship may have been the same but each person ' s experiences were often so dif- ferent that one helped the other gain new per- spectives, It was often a relationship built on two principles, the casual attitudes of guys and the openness of girls. It was often less demanding. You didn ' t have to go out with the guys or the girls. It wasn ' t based on a group . It was more one-on-one. What was it that made you so close, yet, with no romance in- volved? You shared views on everything from world affairs to what teacher to avoid. The masks were taken off, the walls were brought down. And whether days, weeks, or months passed without the two of you spending time together, you could always pick up where you left off. But with all this, v y not more? Would it have ruined It? Why risk a wonderful friendship for the pressure of dating? If you changed the relation- ship, the Individuals were bound to change as well. Romance came and went but friendship was much less fragile. The Ice wasn ' t as thin, you didn ' t need to be as cautious. While there was still the respect of the other ' s feelings, there was rarely hes- itation to hold opinions back. The most special friendships of all are those between a giri and a guy. They take a little more effort but are worth the rewards. Makis latridls Seniors 291 MARGARET DALY School of Nursing BS Nursing PAUL F. DALY Arts Sciences AB Political Science SHEILA M.

DEQUATTRO Arts Sciences BS Psychology The Great Escape Everybody, at one time or another, experienced the tre- mendous pressures which all college students faced, Exams, papers, roommates, jobs, AP and UPl rankings etc . , . could have a profound effect on most student ' s anxiety levels. However, there were also many activities which allowed student ' s to escape these pressures, even if just for o short time, Some students chose to leave the campus entirely. They took a weekend trip home (for Mom ' s home cooking and laundry service), a drive to the beaches of Cape Cod, or a scenic Jaunt to the northern mountains. These were all won- derful and relaxing things to do on the weekends. However, as students, we could be faced with pressures at any time of the week. In this case, we opted for a closer get- away. Some ventured to Faneuil Hall, virile others visited Downtown Crossing or Harvard Square. These outings each offered a different means of escape such as shopping, mov- ies and people watching. Boston also offered great nightlme escapes such as the clubs of Landsdowne Street and Kenmore Square and exciting sporting events such as the Celtics, Bruins, and Red Sox. The local Boston College vicinity itself presented a number of great escapes. The Plex and the Resevoir were both great places to avoid the run-around. Some students chose one of the many other recreational activities offered by the Plex. These included everything from swimming and weight lifting to Intramural sports. Throughout the years, the organized team sports of B.C. offered many of us an excellent opportu- nity to watch fine athletes at work as well as an exciting diversion from the books. For those who were only athleti- cally inclined enough to lift a spoon to their mouth or a can to their lips. White Mountain Creamery and liquor or conven- ience stores were only a short walk or T ride away (and most of the pizza places delivered). However, when a really quick escape from everyday stress and strain was needed, closing the books and chat- ting with friends, watching T,V. or listening to the radio al- ways worked well. We had many different outlets available to us to escape the everyday pressures of school. It was up to each one of us to find ttie most enjoyable and relaxing activity to suit our needs. — Cheryl Cappuccio Andy Ryan Seniors 293 NINAM. DERBA School of Management BS Computer Science LYNN M.

We hoped that classes would be cancelled. But there Is a duality to snow — it can be lots of fun or lots of problems. Snow is wonderful when there is no place to go. The first big snow- storm freshman year gave us all the chance to have a good time, On both Newton Campus and Upper Campus, we ran outside, armed ourselves with snowballs, and engaged In snow battles. That first snowfall gave us such a feeling of unity. The snow brought alot of people together In spontaneous fun for the first time in our college careers and foreshadowed the good times to come.

And oil night long doesn ' t re- fer to the Lionel Ritchie song which states once you get started you can ' t slow down. Unfortunately, our version of all night long is not capable of generating enthusiasm. B.C. all nlghters are those sometimes inevitable experi- ences when you are forced to stay up all night to meet a deadline ... or even an extension of a deadline. They are the closest students get to the dreaded real world. They are a race with the clock during which the memor works. . . all night long. The reason for pulling an all nighter is never as bad as the actual event. The same work done during reasonable hours would only be worth complaining about. After surviving an all nighter, the haunting sound of bed-time magic , the writer ' s cramp . . . anyone can drum up sympathy from any other student on campus. In order to cure yourself from day after all nighter syn- drome , hand In your assignment or take your test, then crawl home and clamber into bed for a much deserved rest . . . hopefully, all night long. — Elizabeth Seigenthaler Andy Ryan HANLEY DONAHUE School of Management BS Computer Science KATHERINE A.

FERRIGNO Arts Sciences AB Speech Communication Andy Ryan Hometown Friends By the time senior year had rolled around most of us had faced a painful reality. As we sat at home over Thanksgiving breaks watching BC football games with home- town friends, we began to realize how things had changed. We had grown apart over the years. We no longer shared com- mon experiences on common ground. As we watched ourteam , we realized to our hometown friends it was just another foot- ball game. Whereas we once shared feel- ings of comradery in high school, the loyalties we felt toward our colleges ran much deeper. While they weren ' t interested in the football game we weren ' t interested in their fraternity talk. In many cases it was an inevitable thing, but in some cases the friendship suffered from lack of time spent together. There were new friendships, new interests, new goals. Freshman year the let- ters went back and forth, the after 11:00PM phone calls were frequent. The vacations which only fell five weeks apart seemed to take forever to arrive. The time between visits dragged on forever. It seemed that we just couldn ' t live without our hometown friends. To loosen the grip brought on waves of fear of losing them for- ever. But the friends like those from home cannot be lost so easily. They ore there to stay. As the years passed the letter box didn ' t fill up as quickly. The phone bills weren ' t near as high, (thank goodness). But the decrease in phone calls and letters did not mark the end of the relotionship. Just because there weren ' t as many calls home didn ' t mean the visits weren ' t just as valu- able senior year as they hod been fresh- man year. The friendship didn ' t die ... perhaps the changes should just be filed under growing up. — Bertq Blotz Seniors 301 Junior Point of View For many, our junior year was the most exciting and yet frightening of our collegiate years. The senior class was grad- uating ... It would soon be our time to shine. Senior year was a few short months away with all the glory it had to offer from first choice of classes to tvtod life. That was the excitement. The most frightening aspect that hit at the end or junior year was the reality that only one year; 52 weeks; 366 days separated you from the real world, Senior year, with all the fun, would also be full of Interviews, resumes, applying to grad school, more interviews and alot of worrying. The security blanket of college would soon be lifted. Senior year would be the prepa- ration to face the real world and lotsoffunll — BertaBIaz EILEEN A. FIASCONE Arts Sciences AB French JOHN A.

But, you quickly got sick of reruns of Love Boat and old movies on TV 38, This was one of those situations in vi hich being a student was to your advantage. BC offered many student discounts for various forms of enter- tainment. As you went to the loookstore Monday through Friday between 11-3, there was someone sitting in the McElroy Tickey Booth. This Idox held some of the best bar- gains in town. Okay, so you had to stand in line for hours for Homecoming and Screw Your Roommate tickets. For many that was their only trip to the ticket booth. But, it had more to offer . . . everything from tickets to student Shakespearean events or just movie passes. One could buy a movie pass to Circle or Showcase cinemas for about $3. $3 for a flick . . . What a bargain. Okay, so that was the bargain of the day for social activities, But what does ' bargain ' mean beyond the social sense of the word? Yes, you ' re right — shopping. Don ' t tell me that you didn ' t feel the need to buy those flowers outside of McElroy because they seemed so much cheaper than the over- age price at the flower shop in town. And clothes. Oh yes the clothes. The col- lege student always had a sharp eye for those special sales that made it a little easier to spend that money (that Dad sent for groceries) on the sweater that had caught your eye in the store window. McElroy lobby was famous for it ' s vendors that came in with their handmade items. Usually, if you kept your eyes open some item eventually seemed worth its price.

At the helm of the UGBC was president Jeff Thielman. A political science and philosophy major, Jeff had many goals set for his year of administration. He felt it was necessary to open a university forum In which students, fac- ulty and administration could gather and discuss issues important to the university such as ROTC. This allowed all views to be voiced. He saw the need for more concrete university programming. The Campus Pub Series gave students a place to go with friends any day of the week. He also felt that there should be more financial aid to less publi- cized sports, especially women ' s sports. Teams should not have to rely on money from the mem- bers of the team only, He felt most of the goals the UGBC set at the beginning of the year were met or slightly modified to compromise with administra- tion. He felt that the ability to communicate with the administration was an important reason for the success of his administration. He felt that BC had changed a great deal since his freshman year. The most obvious change was the dominance of sports. It wasn ' t important to get season tickets to any of the sports. Tickets were always available. He also noticed a growth of po- litical conservatism and that most students came from a higher socio-economic background, Every class has grown more intelligent and more tal- ented. As a result, the curriculum grew more chal- lenging. The emergence of two organizations has had, and will continue to have, a significant im- pact. One being Student Agencies, the other be- ing The Observer, an alternative to the Heights. He also noted some things that hadn ' t changed, but needed changing. The university is not admit- ting in enough minorities. He feels a change in this will bring about a more diverse student body. He also felt the administration needs to be more open. His Idea of a forum was an attempt to fulfill that need. He sees many positive things here. B.C. offers more that most university ' s in the country. It has one of the best libraries In ttiie northeast. It has some of the best professors in their respective fields. And how many schools have produced a Heismann trophy winner? It ' s a great school. The character and spirit of the student body makes Boston College. That said it all. Geoff Why 308 Seniors ROSANNE E. GIAMBALVO Arts Sciences AB Psychology JOSEPH D.

Some ttiings never, not even in ttie Hig- glns stairs, seemingly endless but suddenly ending Journey from frestiman to senior year, cease to be needed. There are just certain necessities of life, vital to human ex- istence. Necessities such as all night study sessions. White Mountain icecream breal s, and Mom. (Gone are the days of just plain apple pie.) From Keyes North to Mods 2A, Mom-need can be seen. The laundry bag, with clothes hanging ever so distastefully out of it, Is filled twice beyond the capacity Mom would allow before she Just did it herself{pout). The eye catches sight of a crumbled granola bar, aged quite well. A circled calendar date reinforces the Mom-need even more — who else can remember Uncle Harry ' s birth- day? Ttiere does come a time, however, when all the reminders do not seem very signifi- cant. In the day-by-day treadmill, sure, but in the long run? After all, the laundry will get done when the sock drawer is empty, the food the sock drawer is empty, the food will remain In the kitchen after one episode of sleep-crushed Oreos, and Uncle Harry stopped counting birthdays years ago. No, In the reflective days of Senior Week, Mom probably won ' t be remembered for that. There ' s just more to it. . . Finals week is here. A finance exam with the potential for causing the first docu- mented case of a 21 -year-old cardiac ar- rest patient hovers threateningly on the Wednesday morning horizon A computer project has a catch ttx3t only Mr. Wong might be able to debug, and an odvertis- Ing meeting ended in a screaming battle. (And then ttiere ' s always the kitchen floor that no one will clean.) So tt en Mom colls and you tell her all about It — and she never calls collect. Admit It, you love fx)w she wor- ries. The phone conversations always seem to be the same. For the most part, she talks and you nod at the receiver. But ttie end Is always the some — a request for FOOD. (Not depending on B.C. Dining Service doesn ' t guarantee homemade chocolate chip cookies sent interstate anymore, does it?l) And even if she ' s livid just because you ' ve bounced a check — for tt e third time in a month — she ' ll probably send something. Through it all, one constont remains. Sometimes it ' s only Mom that knows wt en things ore really bod and you ' re rxjt Just bkaw- ing up as you usually do the third Wednes- day of every month. She hears when your roommate is being a lazy slob and your English teacher has decided to pick on you this semester for no reason.

So nnany questions to ask your- self. Would It be better to take all my classes In the morning and have ttie after- noons free? Or would it be better to take all my classes in the afternoon and have the morning to sleep late? Should I try to get all my classes on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays and have Tuesdays and Thursdays free? Should I take a class at night for three hours once a week? Or should I just take it during the day so I don ' t have to sit there for three hours? And then there were the actual courses . . . Which ones should I take? Should I take Practice of Criticism this semester with a teacher I don ' t want and a bad time just to get It over with? Or should I wait and see who ' s teaching it next semester? What ' s a good ' gut ' to fill my science requirement? And wtxat about the professors ' ' it was hard to know how to judge a professor. If you asked twenty different people wtx) ' ve had him before what he likes, you ' d un- doubtedly get twenty different responses. And wtrat about tiow he grodes well, those who did well would say he was a fair grader but those wtio didn ' t do as well would say he was much too trard. And it you asked a professor you respected what he thought of the professor in question, he would always end his response with; But then again, that ' s just my opinion as a col- league not as a student. In that respect, I don ' t know what value it will be to you. And in the end, it really didn ' t seem to matter. By the time you got to registration all the courses you had carefully ctiosen were full. Back to the drawing board. — RMB ELISABETH HAASE Arts Sciences BS Biology JOHN L.

HILLMAN Arts Sciences AB Economics History 316 Seniors Jesuits Boston College, it was tradition, it was gottiic buildings surrounded by beautifully manicured landscapes. It was warm and old. But more ttian all ttiat. It was ' that Cattiolic sctiool, witti Its Jesuit tradition. Pertiaps with some prejudice it was said, but Boston Col- lege did stand out among othiertop ranked sctiools, And a great deal of ttiis notoriety could have been attributed to its strong Christian ideal constantly idealized through its Jesuit community. This past year, there were one hundred and twenty Jesuits on campus, seventy three of whom held administrative or teaching positions. Twelve years of schooling were required to become a Jesuit. The Jesuits at BC follow the principles and Ideals of St. Ignatius. In a nut shell, one could summarize them as the necessary function of seeking God in all things. And this was the purpose of the Jesuit community here at BC : to lead students toward wisdom and understanding which came from personal growth; that was to say, the attainment of self confidence, judgement and awareness in all things. A BC student was more apt to grow personally with the ideals of the Jesuits entrenched into their heads through the various core courses which were taken that were taught by Jesuits. Tradition was nothing without meaning and the Jesuits would be nothing more than men In black suits if it were not for their belief in the St. Ignatius philosophies. If they did not strive the way they did to produce not only intellectually, but more importantly, spiritually, men and women who obtain a strong moral basis, they would be leading a life in blind faith rather than having knowledge as their shield for life. It is Important for these men and women to learn that their life will be enhanced with this newly found knowledge. For many, BC was their favored choice for c college edu- cation, not only for its curriculum, but also for the moral and Ideals it stood for. The curriculum at BC did not over empha- size the Jesuit tradition, but it was possible to take a Jesuit if one wanted to learn from a Jesuit point of view. Wittxxrt such values and people like the Jesuits to supplement these Ideals and guide students spiritually, Boston College ' s grad- uates would not have the edge that they possess: a fine education concerning scholarly things coupled with an un- derstanding of what it truly has meant to be of peace with oneself and so with the wortd. — Elizabeth Lamb Brian Morrill SCOTT W.HINES Arts Sciences BS Chemistry Pre-Medical LAURA M.

HOLTSNIDER Arts Sciences AB Economics Once Upon A Freshman Year Boston College, an everlosting academic Institution of higher learning has long been a beautiful structure gracing the slcyllne of Chestnut Hill ' s wooded suburbs. It ' s gothic ar- chitecture has been inspirational to the Catholic tradition of Education. As seniors recall BC, as It was when they arrived as a freshman, those with good memories rememloer a BC cam- pus that has changed over the years. The most obvious and striking example of this Is the new O ' Neill Library. Seniors only, will recall the old. Jesuit par1 ing lot that used to exist on that very spot. Many residents of lower campus will also remember the old gravel pathway that connected lower to middle cam- pus and represented a much less tiresome altematlve to the dreaded Higgins stairs. The path was a showcase for cre- ative graffiti. Other changes Included: the two million dollar renovation of Alumni Stadium, New Dorm becoming Walsh Hall, the Townhouses becoming Cardinal Medeiros Townhouses, and the New Theater opening. Changes continued to be a part of BC with the University plans of major changes for Lower Campus. — Leo M. Melanson Makis latridis ELISABETH H. HOLZER Arts Sciences AB English Philosophy BRIAN J.

Or working on that paper only to come down with a severe case of writer ' s block? Sounds famil- iar, right? The cure, of course, was as much a part of college life as skipping classes — the study break. The key element of the study break was Its contagiousness — any excuse to blow off work would do and join- ing friends with the same sick-of-studying point of view made it all the better. When left to the Imagination, study breaks could take almost any form from spontaneous parties witti a couple of pals to some vicious snow fights at three-o ' clock in the morning. The most popular study breaks during underclassman years ranged from massive popcorn sessions on the floor and late-night excursions to FFF or MDQ ' s to heading down to the Plex with the guys for some intense hoop games. With the openings of the Casba and White Moun- tain Creamery, late night munchies be- come rriore accessible and consequently much more appealing. At those late night hours when the mind was filled to Its max- imum with theories and principles and mathmatical formulas, who was con- cerned with the intellect? All the student was Interested in was letting a little of that book-stuff out and letting in some good clean fun. Who cared about how many calories were in a hot fudge, large scoop oreo Ice-cream with two mix-ins sundae?ll As the late junior and senior years ap- proached, the event of legality gave the late night break an added dimension. With Chips and M.A. ' s almost around the cam- pus comer, a couple of Budwelsers (or Bud- welser Lights If you prefer) often put an enlightening perspective on the theory of the fundamental, psychoanalytical studies of major literary cirticlsms. Even though these pubs were christianed as BC favor- ites, the idea that one could go into the city and hit up some of the downtown establish- ments was an exciting and innovative idea for curing the study blahs. The most bizarre study breaks usually oc- curred during the final examination period when students ate, drank, and slept with their books propped open in front of them. Around the point when one realized that they had about three more chapters to learn, (which had never even been read once), a final paper that was to be handed in the next day and still needed an intro- duction and concluding paragraph and . . . dawn was only hours away; one usually felt that inescapable need to stuff one ' s face with something that was totally irratio- nal and therefore most appealing. Hence the infamous, yet bizarre munchies ma- nia . Or, just an outlet to let off some steam (like a yell out the window) helped immea- surably. One senior remembers a huge wa- ter figtit during the spring finals sophomore year that left the hall floors drenched for three days. Sit back for a minute and try to recall the most memorable study break during your four years here at BC — now what ' s that big grin on your face for?!! — Maureen McNicholl and Tania Z. MINDY R.

No one wanted a room of white walls and empty shelves. Once again, the resourceful B.C, students could not be outdone. Competition was fierce in ttie apartment or dorm room decorating arena. Each year, as we all piled our room decorations on top of the bulging suitcases in the back of the station wagon. Mom and Dad would wonder what we needed with those huge flags and street signs for. But after a week of decorating and hammering nails (oops), those little extras were exactly what made those rooms special. Apartment decorating was quite a fad. In any given apartment, one was likely to find quite a wide variety of room decora- tions acquired by the apartment resi- dents. Among some of the more popular Items were . . . STREET SIGNS; One has to feel sorry for the frustrated driver who is carefully trying to fol- low the directions given to him. Directions to turn left onto Roberta Court , or Michael ' s Street , or Eagles Avenue or trying to find Norton Park Road (to name a few) were useless unless he happened to be roaming the dorms of Boston College. FLAGS: The Stars and Stripes were the perfect wall decoration, They were large enough to cover an entire wall and colorful enough to brighten up a room. McDonald ' s flags were also a popular item. The symbol of those Golden Arches was close enough to the thought of cheeseburgers arKJ Mc- Donald trench fries to worm any students heart. For those with a special attachment to their heritage, flags of various countries were proudly displayed. TRAFFIC SIGNS: Along the lines of Itie lyp- ical street sign these were a particulariy dangerous acquisition. Try arxj explain to the friendly police officer why you just had to have that blinking Detour sign thiot was on the side of Interstate Highway -84. In the some breath, try and explain this odd de- sire to yourself I NETWORK SIGNS: With the college stu- dents particular affinity to sports, ABC, CBS, NBC, KATZ, and ESPN must all have gone into a field or onto a court expecting to lose their signs to the crafty hands of some ad- venturous college student. CRATES; The milk crates non-chalantly stolen from the back part ing lots of grocery stores (or various other places where dairy products are supplied) were probably the most useful of the acquired items . They were perfect for storage use, shelving food, books, albums, or sweaters. For some it was a hobby. For others, it was an adventure. For still others, it was just one of those crazy college things you always wanted to do. These deviant tendencies didn ' t make you potential bonk robbers. At the end of the year, the sign, plaques, and flogs get placed into a trunk to be long forgotten. Until one day, many years from now . , . think of the laughs it will bringi — Berta Bioz JUAN H.

Christmaslll Whether it was Bruce ' s Santa Claus is Coming to Town or Bing ' s White Christmas , after Thanksgiv- ing, the mood was set. But with finals the third week in December, how was one supposed to get in the spirit of things?? Well, anyone who ever wrote a letter addressed to the North Pole, or left out cookies and milk, or woke up at the crack of dawn to run downstairs and open presents could un- doubtedly find a little time to make the yuletide gay. Once back from Thanksgiving break, the Heights was filled with Christmas fever. Everyone needed to break loose just one more time before finals and what better way than with a Pre-flnals Christmas party? And, of course, everyone was decked out In their most festive outfits. Mods dec- orated with green and red streamers and a little garland here and there set the scene for a typical Christmas party. Santa Claus caps, kisses under the mistletoe, and sips of Peppermint Schnappes helped to bring spirits to a merry mood. For many it was the last chance they would have to party with BC friends before heading separate ways for the holi- days. Music cranked at its highest volume got the wild partiers rockin ' on the living room ' s converted dance floor, Singing along to old Christmas carols could be heard well into the morning hours. For those daring enough to battle the elements and brave enough to expand upon their singing talents, there was Christmas caroling. Whether it was just around the mods or all through the neigh- bortioods of Chestnut Hill, some decided to share their Christmas cheer with others. One of the most exciting events of the Christmas season was the annual lighting at the Prudential Center. More singing of Christmas classics, hud- dling with friends to keep warm and the Oohl and Aahl as the lights came on all added to the cheerful festive mood.

Since the four buildings that surround me were constructed, I have been one of the best known landmarks on campus. As the years have gone by, IVe seen thousands of students come and go. Hundreds passed through me each day. I was the hub of social activity during the week. People were always meeting in the quad . I remembered the ' all-boys ' ' days, the conservative suits and ties that were daily attire. There were the World War II days when uniforms of army grey, marine green and navy blue were commonplace. As the ' 50 ' s came and went, a new look emerged , . , girls were now crossing my brick pathways. I remember the flower- child days of the ' 60 ' s and the mini-skirts and bell-bottomed pants of the 70 ' s. But, through It all were the die-hard preps, refus- ing to surrender ttieir ' pink and greens ' for the wild fashion fads. As the ' 80 ' s arrived, so did the renewal of the ' preppie look ' . I ' ve seen many changes on this campus. As it has grown, the diversity of students has also grown. In the ' 80 ' s, students have let their own individual characteristics shine. They have ' dared to be different ' . With the completion of the Tip O ' Neill Li- brary, the crowd-gathering events no longer took place between the four Gothic buildings. But, on warm, sunny days, stu- dents flocked not only to the O ' Neill plaza, but also to me. No matter how many new buildings were added students would al- ways return to me. Since the days when there was nothing here but grass and trees I watched. I knew that would always be a special spot in the heart of every Eagle Alumni because I was the center of the Uni- versity. It was nice to know my benches would never gather dust. — Roberta BIaz Seniors 329 DAVID M.LIVINGSTON School of Management BS Marketing ANTHONY J.

LYU Arts Sciences AB Fine Arts 330 Seniors Ft. Lauderdale We Just had to go. Spring Break was tho vacation of the year and Ft. Lauderdale was the spring break capital, where millions of college students united for one thing — FUNI We did make it to Ft, Lauderdale sophomore year, but we prefer to classify that as a learning experience. We were even more ready this particular year, We were juniors living off campus, so we were mature women of the world. We were going back to Ft, Lauderdale and we would drive ourselves down. Why pay an airline pilot? We would be our own pilots. On March 1, we left for Ft, Lauderdale — thirty short hours away, We gathered gas money and kept it in a BC cup. This cup was sacred — only to be touched when buying gas, We cruised down with no problems, and soon we were settled In our deluxe hotel. Our week in Florida was fantastic, full of sun, fun and excitement, but soon it was time to return our fatigued yet bronzed bodies back to Boston. We got out the BC cup, packed the car, and were on our way. Everything seemed fine when suddenly I heard a thud. Our BC cup was in the middle of the road and all our money was blowin ' in the wind, You never saw four girls move so quick, and we were able to get all our money back. This slight horror made us thirsty so we kept our eyes open for a store. My roommate must have been very thirsty, be- cause she cut off two lanes of traffic to get to the store. Unfortunately, she didn ' t turn fast enough and a car crashed In behind us. No damage was done, but the other car con- tained four senior citizens who insisted on calling the police. A policeman finally came, and he wanted to give us a ticket. Could you believe it, just for cutting off two lanes. Well we took care of that by pouring on our female emotions, with my roommate clinching it by crying hysterically. (This was her privilege since It was her car,) We escaped the ticket, got our soda, and moved on. It seemed to take forever to get out of Florida, but we did make it back to Boston, and back to the reality of our apart- ment, where we had no electricity because ttie landlord was experimenting . However, the fact remains that we did make it. We got our tans and had our fun. We had con- quered the quest. — Mary Parry Andy Ryan LOU-ZEN MA School of Management BS Accounting PAULJ.MACDONALD School of Management BS Marketing SUSAN M.

MANGANELLO Arts Sciences AB Mcrthiematics RJ McMation Vandalism at its Prime A letter to the Editor: I lool ed at ttie brand new educational structure, ttie Tip O ' Neill Jr. Library, and I wondered if it would retain it ' s modem fa- cade. I wondered if it would remain as clean and spotless in the future as it looked to me then. Or would it be subject to this University ' s greatest eyesore, vandalism, Now when I speak of vandalism. I am not referring to the spray paint on the dustbowl, nor to graffitti in the bathrooms. In fact, when I speak of vandalism, I am not refer- ring to It as it is commonly viewed, as sense- less destruction of property. Rather, I am speaking of a greater form of vandalism which was commonly accepted on this campus, This vandalism not only ruined the aes- thetic beauty of this lovely campus, it also created more work for those who had to clean up this refuse. This Vandalism ' to which I refer was the posting of signs, letters, pamphlets etc. on the building doors and walls of our educational facilities which promoted various groups and events. This promotional activity was supposed to seive 0 purpose for those who were perceptive on campus, but I felt that ttie aesthetic evils far outweighed the benefits, Clearty these signs diminished the beauty of ttie campus yet they were openly accepted and al- lowed to exist. As I looked at the O ' Neill Library, I won- dered if this vandalism would spread to its doors, walls and hallways. Would this al- ways remain the tastefully adorned site that was so powerful in its austerity? Or would it ' s clear gloss doorways lose their importance OS an entrance to tradition and become another billboard for campus promotions? Only the future could say . . . — MBL NANCY M.

MASCOLO School of Education AB Human Development Right out of Rockwell SCENE: December 21, a couple shopping in Boston, each carried a full shopping bag. Appeared to be a first date. Snow was lightly falling. As they walked along, the young man noticed an empty horse drawn carriage at the next comer. How could he resist? Excuse me, sir. You busy? No. , replied the driver, with a slight Irish accent. My friend and I were Just waiting for a couple like you to come along. Would seem a shame to let a beautiful horse like this be idle on a day like today. Let me help you up here, young lady. As she handed him her bag and took his hand, the young man walked over to a gentleman selling roses. I ' ll take one, please. Tell ya what, why don ' t you just make It an even dozen. A dozen it is, sirll He headed back to the carriage and handed her the roses. As she cradled them in her arm, she gave him a subtle peck on the cheek. Her smile said it all. Anywhere special, folks?

MCNICHOLL School of Education AB Human Development 338 Seniors Doug Flutie ... up close and personal When one heard the name of Doug Flutie thoughts of quick scram- bling and miracle fourth- quarter posses came to mind. The word magic became commonplace and the numbers five, nine and three-quarters become of utmost impor- tance. Because of his praise as a quarterback on the gridiron, people tended to forget that, like the rest of us, he was also a BC student. One early Thursday morning after his senior picture was taken, we talked student to student . In 1981 , Doug was a Natick High School senior. It was then that he made two very important deci- sions. He had lettered in three varsity sports: foot- ball, basketball and baseball and wanted to play one in college. As far as colleges, he was in- terested in the University of New Hampshire, Brown and Boston College. Though his build was more suited for baseball and his interests more in bas- ketball, football was the sport in which he excelled In. So, when BC offered him a foottDoll scholarship, the decision was made. Much has changed at BC because of Doug Flutie and that decision. However, when asked how he felt BC had changed, he commented on the various ways the university had grown. He also mentioned that he was glad to see the emphasis on the athletic programs. He saw It as a positive focus. Though we put ourselves on the map, he didn ' t see BC becoming a football school. He compared the future of BC football to the image that one associated with Notre Dame: and out- standing university with a traditionally strong foot- ball team. Doug was instrumental in shaping our strong football team . As a result, his name was a house- hold word in football circles and his picture made the cover of most major sports magazines, includ- ing the likes of Sports Illustrated and Sport. How did he handle this recognition? He admitted that, alttTough he liked it, it could be awkward. He didn ' t like to call attention to himself. Basically, he wanted to be known as a BC student rather than an All-American football player. Like many kids at BC, Doug had a sibling here. His brother, Darren, was a freshman in 1984-85. He enjoyed having him on campus although they didn ' t spend much time together. He felt like the typical big brother, keeping an eye on him, help- ing him out if he could. As far as football went, he enjoyed having him on the team. It made the game more meaningful and personal. He was concerned about Darren being Doug Flutie ' s lit- tle brother , but he believed that they were differ- ent individuals and it wouldn ' t hinder Darren in any way. Who knew? Maybe one day, Doug would return to BC, walk through the dustbowl and have heads turn again. Only, he just might hear, Hey, there goes Darren Flutie ' s big brother. In retrospect, how did Doug feel about his ca- reer at BC? I came to Boston College expecting a lot less out of football. I thought I ' d be sitting on the bench for four years, taking advantage of the scholarship and the education it would provide. I never expected things to turn out the way they did, I ' m just thankful I ' ve been able to give the university something in return. — Roberta Blaz Seniors 339 KAREN M.

But she never warned me about the cost of a college education. Nevertheless, students had to face it and each year we all got the lovely maroon and gold BC bill that listed the exorbitant cost of another semester at an Institute of higher learning, It hit some of us harder than others but the reality behind those increases in Board and Tuition was a Ihdts life enlightenment. The bottom line to tl is reality was the fact that we all chose to come here. And so, some way or another, we eventually paid that staggering, eye opening price for fame. — Tania Zielinski Financial M |, iliiuUnn (£nllciic a ' )raiiiuitc IFiiuuuial AiJi 5ln«structinn lUuik ll U Lililj LJ Geoff Why THERESA M.

They banged on your door when there was a fire alarm in the wee hours of the morning to make sure you didn ' t bum to death. Resident Assistants, They were cho- sen from a large pool of applicants. They went thru a series of interviews and were selected as the most responsible, or- ganized trustworthy, and well-rounded In- dividuals the university had to offer. Sure, it had It ' s benefits but they sacrificed a great deal for our benefits. Many Thursday nights at the Rat were Thursday nights on duly. Many Friday night parties were missed, Many Saturday night football games were watched on TV, Those were Just the general things. But it was a lot harder than non-R, A, ' s can Imagine, No R,A, enjoyed taking the beer from the underaged student. No R,A. liked breaking up a party after the third warning knowing that they were being cursed at by the departing guests. No R.A, enjoyed writing up a drunken student who had caused problems. No R.A, enjoyed be- ing the bod guy. But it was their job. It was a responsibility they had been willing to un- dertake to ensure the safety and well-being of Boston College students. But they weren ' t Just figures of authority. They were friends we turned to for advise, fun, laughs and even a drink now and then (off duty, of coursell) R.A.

O ' MALLEY Arts Sciences AB Political Science Peter Hillenbrand Time ' s a Wasting So much of an ordinary day went to waste. In some classes it was voluntary. In other cases it just happened. Voluntary wastes included things like sitting in the caf- eteria for another twenty minutes, playing video games, calling an old friend (that was sure to kill at least a half hour), or just reading the paper. Afterall, it was always easier to start studying at hour or half-hour Intervals. If it was 7 ;10 you ' d wait til 7 ;30, but why? No, the question was, why not? Invol- untary time wasters were things ttiat you had little or no control over. Waiting for the elevator, waiting for a bus or waiting in any line were involuntary time wasters. Well, no matter what, everybody got around to studying eventually. There was the classically defined bookworm. This was the studier who never allowed himself any free time. God forbid that he should ever pull himself away from the books at the end of a weeknight much less to go out on the weekend. Then there was the Boston Col- lege Converted Bookworm . He knew when enough was enough. He studied hard but knew when to play. He even manoged to fit in a weeknight excursion now and then. Then there was the I ' ll get my work done when it ' s due studier. Work was done when it had to be done and only when it had to be done. These were the people at M.A. ' s four out of seven nights a week. And then, there was the blow-off studier. He rarely attended class, (he got the notes from some sucker who went to class everyday]. His work was delayed indefinitely and assign- ments were often handed in late. Every Boston College student was some- where in that catagorizotion. Much time was wasted but sooner or later it did get done. — Berta BIaz and R.J. McMahon SenlOK 349 LAUREEN p. ONEILL MICHAEL F. O ' NEILL EILEEN M.ORIE YVETTE ORTIZ STEPHEN P.

They had a few problems as they worked on the book and sent this letter to the pub- lisher. Dear Mr. Printer: I thought I ' d sent page fourty-four. But I just found it on the floor. It is enclosed with ninety-eight I ' m sorry it ' s a month too late. I said I ' d send the rest myself. These ten were lying on a shelf. The pages i sent as six and seven I ' d like to send as ten and eleven. That is unless they ' re already done in that case make it ninety-one Please send page twelve and thir- teen back, I should have made those two girls ' track. Instead I sent girls volleyball and that can ' t go in there at all. I had it planned wrong that ' s the thing I plumb forgot it came in, Spring . I ' m sorry all our stuff was late. Could that affect delivery date? Love, The Editor The above poem has been re- printed due to popular demand (mine) and extreme similarity to this production year. Seniors 351 DANIEL G.

Serious shoes — Give pinching reminders of summer sandals and Plex sneakers of lost college years. Tailored for steps on the road to Success. 3. Tie — Almost always a shade of maroon. School spirit, perhaps? Will become un- comfortable after a half-hour because you have never worn it that long before without loosening it. 4. Resume — Begins with an objective they told you that you had to have, even though you have no idea what you wanted to do. Filled with activities that were joined for fun but which sound so alien when described with such Career Center adjectives as al- located , supervised , and delegated . Complete with list of summer jobs that show an interest in your field. Will tt ey go for landscape maintenance when it was only lawn-mowing? All was typset on fine paper to impress them with your tasteful at- tention to detail. (See briefcase). 5. Briefcase — Emborassingly empty ex- cept for copies of resume and letters of rec- ommendation. Usually monogrommed if Mom gave it to you for Christmas. 6. BC Ring — Prominently disployed. espe- cially during football season. Besides, it matched the tie. 7. Firm handshake — Accompanied by practiced direct gaze. Showed confi- dence but always revealed a sweaty palm. If you ore female, this was the hordest part to learn well. 8. Positive outlook — Always helpful if you get turned down.

Somehow with a week left before finals, we always managed to be at least four hun- dred pages behind in our read- ing. It was a simple fact of life. It was almost as if it couldn ' t be avoided even if you tried. Each semester, books go unopened and papers don ' t get typed until 11 :00 pm the night before they ' re due.

Imagine struggling to understand a foreign language on a day-to-day basis. Imagine trying to make friends with people who viewed you as a foreigner, pertiaps even viewed your homeland with dislike. That is what an in- ternational student had to face. From Can- ada, Brazil, Argentina, Switzerland, Japan, Thailand; they came from everywhere. They had to be admired. For some, it was a subtle change from what they were used to. But for others, it was drastic. The minute they reached the United States, they were on for- eign soil. Sure the trees looked the same and the sky looked the same, but it was very different. Many had no idea where to go or what to do. Tasks that seemed trivial in one ' s homeland were so how much more com- plicated In a foreign land. For some the adjustment was easy. But for others, it was traumatic. Some made friends with American students easily, Some chose to make friends with other foreign students w ho were experiencing the same culture shock . The homesickness we may have felt freshman year would hove to tripled to match the homesickness many of them felt. They couldn ' t just hop in the old cor and go. Some couldn ' t even pick up the phone and call it wasn ' t that simple. It did get easier for many. They weren ' t expected to accept American ways nor were they expected to abandon the tradi- tions of their homelands. They had to blend the two traditions together. Those who were able to do so successfully found that the shock wore off and America had much to offer. Seniors 363 LISAJ.SCIBEnA RICHARD F. SCOCOZZA JEFFREY A. SCOH SUSAN E.SCOH GINA M.

I have a paper that ' s due tomorrow too. Looks like a long night, huh? Yep, Gonna sit here and study all night. All night. Gonna get it done. Yep. Yep. Who are we kidding? The Rat — now — let ' s go! Pm mobilel There was some magnetic force sur- rounding the Rat on Thursday nights that made you go, even if you had absolutely no Intention of setting foot in the door. Pa- pers, exams, speeches — all were shoved aside by 10;15 every Thursday to hit the big- gest (and only) school sponsored meat market on campus. There were a few unspoken but well de- fined rules involved in going to the Rat on Thursday. First, it was definitely not cool to come to the Ratbefore10:00, or9:45 if there happened to be a band. Most everybody could find something to do in the eariy eve- ning, so that they could come to the Rat at the fashionable hour, The one exception to the iate Rat rule was the first night the Rat was open in September, when people lined up outside the door at 6:30 to get in. It was usually safe to bet that no one would dance on the dance floor until he or she had had at least two beers. Occasion- oily, either a very outgoing or very eccentric person would start bopping early, but the average BC ' er needed a little loosening up first. Of course, once the happy student had downed a few, he became a maniac on the floor. No one was safe from flying arms and legs, flying beer or flying dance partners. Speaking of dance partners, probably the favorite activity at the Rat on Thursdays was the weekly, Pick-Up-A-Thon, where charming BC students attempted to scoop on each other while drinking and dancing simuitaneousiy — no easy feat. Another ' Yun feat was the scramble for the first available waitress. There was a defi- nite art to this. First, you had to find the wait- ress with the most beer on her tray. Naturally, that meant that she had just left the bar and the beers would be relatively cold. A good plus was to remember her name or shirt and give her a decent tip. Chances were high that towards the end of the night, when it got very crowded, it would be a clear advantage to be in with the waitress. Why did we do this week after week — drink ourselves to oblivion and wake up on Friday afternoon dying of embarrassment about what we had done or said the night before? Or missing that important Friday morning class even though you knew you hod a quiz?

The case could not have been more true for the residents of McElroy 103 over the past three years. Duds were the more common name for those malfunctioning ma- chines. Still others called them lemons. But still others referred to them ever so fondly as Apples. The computer age first thrust itself upon Sub Turrlan writers when the 1983 edition was being compiled. The work of the staff writers was cut in half. Efficiency was doubled. 1984: I can ' t find it!H l, screamed Kathy Kopy from the computer room. What do you mean you can ' t find it, Ted Itor growled.

SWAIN School of Management BS Finance Mary Leonard Custodians No university could function properly without the dedication of its employees, BC was no exception. Fortunately, however BC had that dedication. The men and women who kept the university running during the four years that the class of 1985 spent here were as much a part of the university as any student, If one took a good look around the cam- pus in Chestnut Hill, a common sight would have been that of a hard working individ- ual. In the dorms, the cafeterias, the class- rooms; wherever one looked was a person known to everyone as a janitor. They were responsible for first and foremost; cleanli- ness. But, the janitors did much more than clean. They, of course did their job dilli- gently , but they also found time to be pleas- ant and coopera tive with the students. The janitors really cared about the university and the personnel. One such individual was known to most only as Henry. Henry was one of the janitors. He dedicated over 30 years of his life to Boston College. Finally he decided to retire with his pension and memories of BC. In allowing Henry to retire BC let go of one of its most valuable resources. Henry may well have known more about BC than the director of the archives. His years at BC were spent in the offices of the people who de- cided the directions BC would take in the future. He saw first hand the changes in how BC was run and the people who did so. Employees like Henry could not be re- placed only, retired.

Win, lose or draw, you had to be there. This wasn ' t a bowl from the who cares? column. There were all sorts of reasons for going to the Cotton Bowl. One was the simple fact that everyone else seemed to be going. Naturally that only added to the Importance of this rare event. The second reason was dam it this was 1985 and we were all paying big money to attend this won- derful institute of higher learning. Face it, with tui- tion, room and board fees hovering near the twelve thousand dollar mark, (if not more) and about fourteen thousand dollars in school loans to pay back when we graduated from college, what was a mere $300.00? A drop in the bucket of course. Most important, when Doug Flutie accepted that Helsman trophy he said he did it with the sup- port of the entire BC community. And if that BC community couldn ' t follow our team down to the Cotton Bowl where they had led us, well that wouldn ' t be too supportive would it? We were proud of ourteam and our school and we revelled in the popularity that the football teams success had generated. This was big time ... it would be a long time before we would have this opportunity again . . . the folks at home would just have to understand . . . call the doctor ... win the lottery ... the BC community was Dallas bound ... we were head- ing for Dallas, Texas . . . many of us for the first time ... in the city ' s bar ' s we would herald the new year . , .

Your heart took the plunge. The best rela- tionship of your life was over. Who consoled you? The big game approached. An honest autumn nip clipped through the air. Tail- gates awaited your arrival . Who did you go with? Best friends were a rare breed. While it seemed that everyone had one there were few people who could fill that role for any one person. (Best friends had the prerequi- site of being individually tailored to said friend ' s irrational needs and wants at any point in time.) It is comforting therefore to know that when one is made they will last a lifetime. Best friends stick by you through every- thing whether it be a disaster or celebration. Ah . . . the celebrations, how wildly sweet they were, It all started sophomore year after you finally got away from that loser the university gave you for a roommate, Hi Hi Is Teresa here? No, she ' s uh . . . at the library Oh, I ' m Lisa ... I live down the hall. Would you want to play backgammon? Sure anything to blow off economics. It ' s my major, but I hate it. I ' m failing it too. Maybe that ' s why I hate it so much, i never particularly enjoy something I stink at. On hour later and the three gammons later. Remember how I told you I didn ' t enjoy things I stink at? Yeah Well I think backgammon just became one of them. Funny how best friends managed to be- gin losing after a while to make sure you didn ' t throw the board at them. Sometimes things just click. That ' s usually the way it is with best friends. But that doesn ' t mean there isn ' t room to grow closer. And during the college years that is exactly what happened. So it took her two and a half years to realize that the theory that Springsteen was God ' s gift to the world was 100% correct. It wasn ' t always that much fun of course there were those gigantic fights. The time you went skiing in New Hampshire and got cabin fever you almost ripped each others heads off. It was okay though, she left her boots in the car and skied with frozen feet the next day for it. Well, it was mostly her fault wasn ' t it? Oh, maybe not. Best friends do a lot of funny things. They actually listened when you made abso- lutely no sense. Yeah, best friends definitely had the funny ways of doing things. One minute they would swear that they would never leave, that they would always be there for you and the next minute they would take off to Europe for a semester. That was a fine how-do-you-do (as mother always said). But through the months they would spend abroad letter after letter and postcard after postcard would be sent to remind you that they still cared and in fact had never really left. ' What have you been doing? I want names, places and all the intimate details, you screamed at eoch other in unison upon reuniting. Ah well, there was always the sec- ond half of senior year to share together. Though college ended and we may have drifted apart our memories cannot be stripped from us. And through those mem- ories our hearts will remain forever with our best friends, Seniors 375 House Calls Whoever thought, while spend- ing many un- pleasant Sunday mornings a r u g u i n g with our par- ents because they wanted us to wear our Sunday outfits to mass and we wanted to wear our jeans and sneakers, that someday while we spent four years at Boston College the largest Catholic Uni- versity in the nation we be wearing sweats and shorts to mass? It felt quite appropo to just flop on a pair of flip flops, or slip on a pair of socks before walking down the hall to the lounge for mass. The lounge atmosphere was another factor making the masses a unique experience. Fresh- man year on Newton campus dorm masses were held once a month. That was the Jesuit way of breaking students into the culture shock sitting on the floor Indian style for the communal Catholic ceremony rather than sitting up straight in pews and kneeling down and up and down and up and down and up. The laid back atmosphere of the dorm mass coincided with the relaxed atmo- sphere of ttie lounges on Newton. The lounge was used for everything from occasional studying to frisbee, football, late night bull sessions and ice- cream sundae parties. It was amazing how a priest, a white table cloth, a couple of candles and some guitars can transform a usual place of fun and frolic into one of serious thought and prayer. The upper campus experience was similar to the Newton Campus one. On lower campus dorm masses seemed to grow up a little because the lounges were the sight of some pretty serious studying. So now dorm masses were being field in a place vAiere Shake- speare was read, ecoroTnics was paniced over and Freud was figured. But on Sunday nights the lights were dimmed and an atmosphere of a chapel was created. That ' s what the dorm mass was: a place where roommates, friends, neigh- bors and classmates came together to take an hour to spend some spiritual time together and reflect on life. What better place to do so than in one that is part of everyday life. Why should a suit jacket or pair of high heels be required? Some pretty serious soul searching was done sitting In- dian style on the floor leaning against a radiator wearing sweats and socks. Sharing community was an important part of the mass. What better atmosphere than one where all those who partici- pate lived together? — Sue Towney Alison Brooks MAHHEW F. TROY Arts 8c Sciences BS Economics PAULA A.

If I didn ' t say Mlchelob, I could have said 0 number of other things. But hey, the infa- mous jingle demanded the word in order to make it a complete advertising sentence. Yet, it really wasn ' t the name of the beer that carried the magic, it was it ' s associa- tion to that key word of words — weekend. It was no small wonder that everyone thanked God for Fridays because they really were a saving grace. Weekends meant freedom from the dreary, structured classroom schedule. Weekends meant time to do what you wanted but never had the time to do. So, what did we do on those wonderful weekends? Well, there were the parties. In fact Thurs- day and Friday were usually spent in the assessment of all the weekend ' s parties and their stats how many kegs? In the fall, football games were a primary event. With the tremendous popularity that the BC Eagles claimed, everyone seemed to get swept up in tt e whirl of foottxjil frenzy and tailgate plans abounded Winter brought the cold and many a frosty night was spent engaged in a gome of Trivial Pursuit with friends and o pitcher of Bloody Marys. Not to forget were the weekervds that were spent in the library writing ttiat twenty page research paper or studying for that terrible exam. Those weekends never seemed to really be ' weekends ' but then Monday would come and soon it would be Thursday and the past weekend would be forgotten in the anticipation of the coming one. When it came down to it, the true end- ing to that jingle wasn ' t really Mlchelob because weekends weren ' t made for beer, they were made for YOU. — Tenia Zielinski KIMBERLYA.

Such are the comrades who were as close even at three in the morning as they had been at noon. At gradu- ation it is not necessary to leave, friends, only the common ground on which you met. And yet this ground, at least is not one of dirt and grass from which stately Gothic towers rise. It is a tradition — a tradition of the ages. For no matter how much is forgotten or even how much we are able to remember, there is something, whether we are aware of it or not, that we have deposited and gained there , . , Although com- mencement is a symbol of our new beginnings, we begin from a height reached by the effort of others.

Numerous skills were developed and refined at BC, but the one skill which was com- monly nurtured by all was the gift of gab. Conversations abounded on campus and everyone was obliged to participate in one or more varieties every day. Al I had to learn to recog- nize the variety of conversation, their proper role in it, and that which they were expected to contri- bute, The varieties included the mindless con- versation with a casual acquaintance, the short but interesting conversation with a former room- mate, the intellectual conversation in a professors office, the precise conversation with people at Student Accounts, the impassioned registration conversation with the chairman of the Economics department, the risky conversation with that spe- cial member of the opposite sex and finally, the late night raps with the roommates — - the most pleasant of them all. Each of these conversations carried its own un- spoken format; the length, topical boundaries, emotional input and degree of interest were all silently agreed to by convention. For Instance, if, while engaging in a mild conversation with an acquaintance you were asked, How ' s it goin ' ? , you should not have begun weeping and then set off on a depressing diatribe about the ten page paper you had to write. Also, if it was after mid- night and your roommate wanted to argue about toothpaste brands it was not proper to roll over and fall asleep; you should have taken a stand and defended it. All of us began our conversation training (BC style) when we arrived here our freshman year. The What ' s your major? routine may seem silly now but it served as an Introduction to this fine art. If it was September we asked, how was your sum- mer; later in the fall it was, How ' bout those Eagles? and in the spring we queried, What are you up to this summer? . These BS sessions were as rewarding as they were time consuming. They were at once enjoy- able, humorous, intellectual, silly, adversarial and personal. Whether the topic was the opposite sex, a professor, a class a news item or last weekend ' s party, it was within the context of these joyful dia- logues that we really came to know one another.

I have decided to include o letter from the editor in this volume becouse the staff always looks for one end all fttey get is a dry, boring colophon. The staff of Sub Tun1198S is to be congratulated. At the commence- ment of this academic year our staff was larger than it hod ever been in the past with well over 70 active members. As usual that number dwin- dled swiftly. The final figures found approximately 20 students contribut- ing regularly to the book and no more than 10 dedicated and 100% rellQbie. The following people therefore deserve to be than ked by every member of the senior class for putting in endless hours to create a book of memories with virtually no help from their clossmales. The order is random for no one can be valued more than any other. Without all these people this book as you see It would have been impossible. Makis lattldis, Photography Editor, had the task of following in some of the best footsteps ever to walk through McElroy 103, His organizotlonol abilities coupled with his photographic talent and knowledge allowed him to surpass the traditionally high level of photography Sub Turrl has come to be known for In recent years. There Is no question that the block and white quality in this book Is at least twice as high as it was lost year. Mokis ' personal emphasis of photography as art rather than Journalism gave Sub Turrl not only o clean, fresh look but also a new section. Mokls Is directly responsible for the creation of the Gallery section and stiould be thanked by all future photo editors for providing a place in Sub Turrl to present the besi work rather than going to the Slvlui. Tony Cammarota, Sports Editor, better known as the man stuck in the middle, faced the Incredible challenge of dealing with photographers who had to have hvo pages for their shot . . . Just look at it, it ' s my best stiot everlll But where are we going to put the story? You mean we have to leave room for a stoiv on the page? Such patience as Tony had was a rare gift, especially In McElroy 103. Cheryl Cappucoio took on the job of Managing Editor in the middle of the fall term. Though Cheryl had only Joined the staff the previous spring, her natural sense of stiucture and incredible track record fa reliability made if clear that she would be the best person for the position, Her constont grinding through the phone calls, moil, contracts and answering machines truly earned her the title managing editor. Keith Gnazzo and Tania Zlelinski, the Copy Editors, put in many thankless hours assigning, typing, editing, and proofing Just to be con- stantly nagged by photographers that there was too much writing In the book. Both Tania and Keith walked into ttie posittons in ttie fall and therefore hod no tinne to make contacts with other writers. Tania, a senior, was responsible for the miajor structuring of each deadline. She made sure that the stories were assigned and fumed in. Keith, our freshman godsend, had an uncanny knack for cranking out sports copy In six seconds flat. Peter Klidaros, chief Greek, was mainly responsible for driving me crazy Peter was the head creative consultantto the book. (Wait . . . I ' ve got a great ideal) As required for any creative genius Peter had a tendency to let Ideas develop over time . . . right up to the last second. But it Is such ideas, developed with such painstaking care that give yeoitjooks the ability not only to remind students of the events that took place but to also let them relive the emotions of those times. Kersfin Gnazzo, Business Manager, was responsible for keeping all the above mentioned artists within the realm of reality iDetter known as the budget. The trick was rot easy for someone who at heart loved spedd effecte and spot cotexs just as much as those who were begging for ttie extra money to use them, especially given the fact ttiot the exact amount available to be spent wasn ' t determined until the end of the year when the books were sold. Despite that, Kerstln ' s sharp sense of business and knowledge of the value of certain effects over others allowed her to keep the budget balanced and the book creative. She additionally aided in all areas of production from overall structure to reporting. Every senior should kiss the feet of Roberta BIaz, Senia Section Editor, whofelt funny about being a junior. Were It not for her organization, hard word and Innovation there would have been a good chance that you would not have appeared in the book. And the end of the senior section deadline did not mari the end of Roberta ' s assistance as if so often does with senior section editors. She continued to help through the final deadline and sales. Geoff Why, Assistant Photography Editor, must be praised for all of his hard wort both in shooting pictures and working in ttie darkroom. As a freshman, he had no idea as to what was Involved In dedicating time to the yearlDOok. He learned fast and was always there when we needed him. Andy Ryan, Assistant Photography Editor, must also be commended for his dedication and hard work as should all the section editors. It Is those who take the responsibility on bit by bit throughout the year that keep the editor from going crazy. Kathy Reilly and Amy FrocossinI handled the Activities section with virtually no prior knowledge of how a yearbook wort ed and did a fantastic job, thank you both. Colleen Seibert and Tom McMorron designed the Boston section and are to be congratulated for their fine work under the restraints of such a short deadline period. Father Leo McGovem. our advisor, cannot be thanked enough for his guidance and time. Ending an editor ' s letter has always felt like such a final stroke on the canvas. But as Peter Klidaros once emphasized you can never say, This is it. This is my best. Ttiis book Is the best I can do. This is the extent of my abllit . You have to be constantly able to learn and grow from what you ' ve accomplished and go on to improve upon It. 1 am sure that Sub Turri and the members of this year ' s staff will grow and Improve as a result of this production year. And while we may not be able to say , This is it. This is the best. We gave it our best try.

The facility not only became a meca for research but also a buzzing social center for campus activities. Contrasting this pinnacle of achievement was the arrest of Harlan Jones, a Boston University student during a social justice lecture for what many students believed to be merely an exercise of his freedom of speech. As long as Boston College and its alumni continue to strive for excellence they must not only revel in the glory of their achievements but also confront and combat injustice across the world and at home.

Financial aid flowed from every corner of the nation. As graduation loomed closer and closer students had to face the reality of leaving their home field.

Water polo is played in a pool thirty meters long by twenty meters wide and with a depth of at least six and a half feet. Each team consists of seven players, The object of the game is to swim the ball down the pool and score goals. Water polo is a fast and furious sport which involves lightning quick reactions, excellent ball handling skills, tremendous endurance and physical strength. Boston College Water Polo had a banner season this past fall, Lead by senior tri-captains, Brian Zeug, Gonzalo Fernandez, and Jeff Kenkel, the team finished with a 14-6-1 record. BC cap- tured the New England Division II East Crown and was invited to the New England Championships. They never left the top 10 poll all season. Despite an in- consistent performance at the New Englands, the Eagles were invited to attend the Division II Eastern Seaboard Photos bV Peter Klidoras Championships, but had to decline the honor due to a scheduling conflict with varsity swimming, BC was given a final ranking of 8th for the East Coast in Divi- sion II. A major highlight to be noted was the fact that BC soundly thrashed its green line rivals BU on three separate occasions. One of the keys to this year ' s success was the goaltending of senior Sean Joyce. He had the abi lity to turn a game completely around. Joe Stockwell was the team ' s offensive threat constantly giving opposing goalies fits. Leading scorers for the Eagles were Stockwell, Zeug, Fernandez, and sophomore standout Roberto Where ' s my green card? Ayala. The defense was anchored by Kenkel, Joyce, and sopho- more sensation, Tony Ryan. The freshman trio of Randy Teteak [Mr. Assist], Ed Bums, and John Arrascada were explosive and added incredible talent to the squad. All three were talented enough to be starters at one point during the season. Seniors Steve Sheehan and Matt Cronin played con- sistently and gave the Eagles much needed experience. Tom Boyle, Paul Goudreau, Tom Guilderson, Greg Greene, Tom Papadametrio, and Al DeLeo comprised the talented youth who were lighting the way towards a bright future for Boston College Water Polo. Friendship and team spirit flowed wonderfully with the competitive edge, Time has come today in Agua una Sanguinem Mittimus. 452 Supplement SCHEDULE AND RESULTS FOR FALL 1984 Sept. 14 . 15: The BC Invitational BC vs Bridgewater State (13-6) win BC vs Boston University (10-4) win BC vs UCONN (4-3) win BC vs Trinity (10-3) win Sept. 24: at Bridgewater State BC vs Bridgewater State (17-2) win BC vs Boston University (5-5) tie Sept. 26: at Boston College BC vs Williams (5-4) win sudden deathi BC vs Dartmouth (7-2) win Oct. 6 . 7: Division II Tournament at UCONN BC vs Bridgewater State (12-3) win BC vs Boston University (6-5) win BC vs UCONN (14-7) loss BC vs URI (15-12) win Oct. 11: at Boston University BC vs Boston University (11-8) loss Oct. 20 . 21: Division II Tournament at Bridgewater State BC vs Boston University (12-8) win BC vs UCONN (13-12) win BC vs URI (9-7) loss BC vs Bridgewater State (18-8) win Oct. 26: at Boston College BC vs Coast Guard (13-7) win Nov. 3 8 . 4: New England Championships at Brown University BC vs Williams (14-5) loss BC vs URI (15-10) loss BC vs Amherst (8-5) loss FINAL RECORD 14-6-1 Supplement 453 After BC came back to oust Minne- sota in an exciting two-game total goal series, it was Final Four time in Detroit for thie Eagles, Providence was thieir foe and BC had beaten thiis team twice already. Tt ere was one problem, A goaltender named Chris Terreri was on fire and his play brought the two teams to overtime. An exciting and nerverack- ing second overtime was ended when Providence scored and ended BC ' s hopes for a national championship, One of BC ' s most successful season ended in a fourth place finish to give the hockey team as much respect as the football team. BC hockey returned to the forefront in 1985 and 1986 looked even more promising. 454 Supplement Photos bv Ted Hanss Supplement 455 Basketbal After Troy Bowers ' desperation shot rolled out of the basket against Syracuse in the Big Easttourney, BC fans were saying, Wait ' til next year! about the hoop team. But, thanks to an expanded NCAA tournament format, the Eagles once again found themselves in the midst of post-season excitement. The first-round saw the Eagles slip by Texas Tech, but BC ' s next opponent was heavily favored ACC foe Duke. BC fought from behind throughout the second half and managed to squeak out a one point victory over the Blue Devils. Memphis State and Keith Lee were next, and the Eagles were once again one step away from the Final 8. As in the previous game, the Eagles battled from behind, and with twelve ticks remaining on the clock, BC was actually in command with the ball and a tie game. But, the dream turned into a, nightmare as the inbounds pass bounced off Roger McC ready ' s foot and the Tiger ' s Andre Turner hit a skyrocket jumper as time expired. The dream season was over and the aspirations of an all-Big East Final Four had gone by the wayside. ' Weii, there was always next year. The 1985 edition of the Boston College baseball had its ups and downs. The team endured a subpar season but highlighted the hitting by cracking many timely homeruns, The team was victorious in some Big East contests and looks forward to the strengths of Seton Hall and St. John ' s in 1986, Supplement 459 462 Supplement MAUREEN CAMPANELLA Arts Sciences AB Speech Communications ANN T.

There was no better way for seniors to start their last few days at BC then to attend their final Rat. This was no ordinary Rat. It consisted of just seniors. Underclassmen were not allowed in the door. The setting was very familiar, pretzels. beer, and of course. Good Stuff as the D.J. The floor was messy, the doors were closed at 8:45, but the atmosphere was different. For everyone, it was their last Rat as an undergrad at BC. The night ended on a happy note with everyone holding each other singing Bye, Bye Miss America Pie. Senior Night At Tlie Rat 464 Supplement Photos by Kerstin Gnozzo and Marie Camey Tuesday, May 14th This activity was labeled ' Tacky Hawaiian Night, It was off to the Glenn Ellen Country Club In Millis for a Luau. It was a big, BC beach party inside, Everyone danced until the bitter end. The dance floor was overcrowded and the evening ended too soon, Friday, May 17th The highlight of the Clambake wos food . After an hour and a half of traveling, most students were excited to find lunch on the table upon their arrival. It included, what else, ciom chowder and clamcakes. Many of the students spent the day playing volleyball, horse- shoes, frisbee or softball. The lazier ones were asleep in the sun. Supper was served promptly at 7 PM. The appetizer was steamers — all you could eat, followed by lobster or chicken with stuff- ing, onions, fish, and watermelon. The entertainment was a band featuring big band era music. __1 The Nowhere Cruise Friday-Saturday, May 10th-11th WHAT, a 24 hour booze cruise for $75? Many peopie chose not to attend this Senior weel activity ' be- cause they thought it was a 24 hour booze cruise for $75. Well, those who thought that were wrong. Those who went were in for a big surprise. The first comments out of people ' s mouths were, This is the Love Boat. Before one boarded the ship, his picture was taken. So much for spending time in Portland, Maine. Nova Scotia, here we come. Each person was assigned a cabin. Some were priviledged and had showers while others just had sinl s. The cabins weren ' t big enough for 4 people, let alone 5. Once everyone settled in, the partying began. Beer was only a dollar and most students had at least 6. Once the boat was sailing, the slot machines were humming while some seniors tried their luck at Black Jack or craps. Entertainment was provided by comedians from the Commedy Connection, Mark Timmons, and Mr. Mayor. Twenty-four hours was too short. The deck was covered with people Saturday catching the rays or recovering from a hangover. It took about 10 hours after the cruise was over before rooms stopped swaying. 466 Supplement I nil ■III ■III Monday, May 13th The twenties were in for this Senior Weel activity. Most students took the buses provided from BC to Castle Hill at Crane ' s Beach in Ipswich. Some even took the pleasure route on Lincoln ' s bus which had a flat tire and broke down on the way in Burlington. On arrival, cameras were out and in full force, Everyone took in the gorgeous view of the beach. Mors d ' oeuvres were served. They included an assortment of cheese, crackers, peanuts, sand- wiches, and even, shrimp. Once stom- achs were full, the dance floor was packed. The DJ played top 40 songs, plus a few songs from the 20 ' s. The eve- ning was topped off with a spectacular fireworks show which lit up the sky for miles. Comnnencement Ball Thursday, May 16th Commencement Ball was one of the main romantic highlights of the week. It was a long-standing Senior Week tradition. This was the only formal activity to be held during the week. It was held at the Sheraton in downtown Boston. Those in attendance were charmed by Lester Lanin and his 15-piece orchestra, who had played at the wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana. They played both current tunes and oldies. The evening began with cocktails, followed by an average tasting meal, and continued into the night with dancing. 470 Supplement I. If!
