Do You Remember? Homecoming? Greek Week? The 1982-1983 school year was filled with many activities, laughter and learning. The Campus was reborn in August as students arrived to begin another aca- demic year. While students took time to readjust to campus life, organizations be- gan to provide people with numerous ac- tivities to entertain them. The first main event was Greek rush. Throughout the year students took study breaks to attend many of the fun programs that had been planned since last semester. Several organizations spon- sored week long events such as Greek Week, which was sponsored by IFCXPAN HEL the Black Student Alliance's Garret Week as well as lDC's Dorm Daze. During the year students worked very dilligently in and out of classroom making the 1982-1983 academic year one of learning and growth. And yet many peo- ple found time to become involved in intramurals, organizations, attend a con- cert at the new Peoria Civic Center and become involved in the November elec- tions. All in all, 1982-1983 was a highly pro- ductive year. Despite problems like the All School Elections controversy students managed to work together in making the year a good experience.

Founder's Day Celebration, Look t Bradley Today! As renovations began on the new mu- sic recital hall on Barker Ave., the stu- dents, faculty and community gathered to celebrate the 85th anniversary of the Uni- versity's founding. The University was founded in 1897 by Lydia Moss Bradley as a living testimonial to her family. The first Founder's Day was October 8, 1897 and was then called Bradley Polytechnic Institute. Bradley began as a four year academy with a two year junior college and today it is a 7 college University. On October 8, 1983 an audience of over 300 people gathered in the Hart- mann Center for the Performing Arts to honor Mrs. Bradley and those at Bradley today who have worked to fulfill her goals. At the ceremonies speakers like Dick Steubinger, President of the Nation- al Alumni Association and Nate Martin, All School President, spoke about Ly- dia's dedication and ideals and related them to today's University. Dr Romeo B. Garrett addresses the audience at the Founder's Day Ceremonies Photo by Chris Cantele Dr Abegg congratulates Dr. Dwyer, from the English Depart- ment as he is honored with a service award at the Founder's Day Celebratnon Photo by Chris Cantele Following a performance by Bradley's award winning Chorale, Dr. Martin Abegg, Bradley University President, presented service awards to faculty mem- bers who had served the University for over twenty-five years. Next, the Francis C. Mergen Memorial Award for Public Service was presented to Dr. John R. Howard. Dr. Howard had been an ex- tremely active community member and was well deserving of the award. After this Dr. Gustav Olling, Chairman of the Manufactoring Engineering Department, was presented with the Award for Profes- sional Excellence. The final award pre- sented was the Putnam Award for teach- ing excellence which was presented to Dr. Joseph Emanuel, Chairman of the Industrial Engineering Department. Both Dr. Olling and Dr. Emanuel were given certificates and checks for 3500. Also receiving awards on Founder's Day 1982 were two alumni, Robert D. Morgan and Gary Roberts. The Distinguished Alum- nus Award was given to Mr. Morgan and Mr. Roberts was presented with the Out- standing Young Graduate Award. In 1847, Lydia Moss Bradley came to Peoria, Illinois. Following the death of her six children and her husband, Mrs. Brad- ley began a quest to build a living testimo- nial to her deceased family. Today, in 1982 that dream is a reality. Bradley Uni- versity was the dream of a determined remarkable woman and her dreamed has prospered and grown by the dedication and caring of the many people who served Bradley since 1897. The Founder's Day Celebrations at Bradley are a time to reflect on our past and to honor the wonderful woman who began Bradley. However Founder's Day should also be a time to look towards the future and at the 85th Founder's Day Celebra- tion the gathering looked forward with hope and inspiration.
