As the school year began, the college community had visions of what the year would bring. They envisioned a year of new academic challenges, intense athletic competition, taking in the breathtaking campus scenery, exploring the choices for activities, and sharing the special times. Many times those visions were only that: visions. Now, in 1987, these visions turned into realities. died against the evening sunset, Boyden Hall rves as the central edifice at the Bridgewater ate College campus. 1987 Visions Yearbook Bridgewater State College Bridgewater, MA 02324 At his desk. Dr. Indelicato attends to the many matters that require his attention as President of Bridgewater State College. Become the Best State College in America. Speaking at the Convocation ceremonies, Presi- dent Indelicato invited the college administration, faculty, and students to help him attain this goal of excellence. I Visions for the Future From the moment that he applied to be the ninth President of Bridgewater State College, Dr. Gerard Indelicato has had a clear vision for the future of the college. The primary focus of his duties here, he says, is to make Bridgewater the best state college in the nation. This message has been consistently reiterated, as he has invited the students, faculty, administrators, and friends of the college community to help him achieve this goal. Many changes have been made already, some cosmetic such as putting up gold lettering on Boyden Hall and red signs on all the campus buildings, and others more substantial, such as obtain- ing funds to build new dorms which will be ready for occupancy in the fall of 1989. The President has advocated the need for an MBTA station on campus as a part of the the newly revived South Shore commuter rail service. There is a renewed sense of pride and tradition on campus in Bridgewater, and can that be credited to our new Presi- dent, Dr. Gerard Indelicato. Taking an interest in student affairs, President In- delicato takes time and effort to be a part of many student events. Here he is vvith Kerry Quinlan, just before he runs in the Monster Mash Dash spon- sored by the Program Committee. 3 Reaching for Excellence Students were setting new goals for themselves academically, and also pushed themselves to their utmost potential. Students attended Bridgewater primarily because of its reputation for academic excellence and there was support from classmates, faculty and advisors to help them to live up to their potential. The curriculum is rich and varied; courses include GERs and major re- quirements. The GERs (General Educa- tion Requirements) are usually com- pleted by the end of the sophmore year, and are a reflection of the College ' s com- mitment to provide its students with a sound liberal arts education. This ex- posure to broad fields of learning is a foundation for specific studies in a stu- dent ' s major field. There are over twenty-seven undergraduate majors, and a variety of concentrations, which offer students more than 100 areas of study. Reaching their academic potential was a primary vision here at Bridgewater, and provided satisfaction as they turned those visions into realities. In warm weather many students take to the put- doors to study for their classes. Studying outdoors provided a break from regular studying in dorm room, at home, or at the library. Choices for Activities students do their only With over 50 clubs and organizations and over 300 activities and pro- grams to experience, many not have school work as concern. The various organizations, whether it be academic, service, social, or athletic, all recruit students to join their organization. Through the Student Government Association, students have a voice in the college governance system, and almost all the clubs and organizations on cam- pus are sponsored financially by the SGA. The Program Committee provides most of the on-campus entertainment, ranging from movies to popular concerts to art exhibits and celebrity and faculty lectures. The Greek fraternities and sororities provide students opportunities to gain close friendships; and organizations such as BAIRS (Bridgewater Association for Intermurals, Recreation, and Sports) provide opportunities to participate in non -varsity sports. Being a part of a club or organization provided students opportunities to work together toward a combined vision, and to see that vision turn into reality. The annual Fall Concert sponsored the Program Committee featured the main attraction of the Human Factor. PC sponsors over 250 programs each year. Taking time out from a busy schedule of school and work are Christine Blanchard and her two friends at the Rat. The Rathskeller is a place where many over 21 spend time relaxing and visiting with friends. Dancing to the music, Maureen Doherty enjoys herself at the Homecoming Masquerade Ball, spon- sored by the Class of 1987. Many dances were sponsored by many different organizations in the ARCC Ballroom throughout the year. Coming back to Bridgewater, George Conway, Class of ' 86, helps his Sigma Chi fraternity brothers by put- ting on the finishing touches on their first place winn- ing float. Involvement in the Greek system often resulted in close and long-lasting friendships. As the campus focal point, Boyden Hall is where most of the administration offices and several classrooms are located. Built in 1926, it is named for Albert Gardner Boyden and his son, Arthur Garke Boyden, both of whom served as presidents of the college. T Named for former President Zenos Scott, Scott Hall houses appoximately 140 students. It recently went co-ed last year, introducing women to the former all-male dormitory. New England is known for its gorgeous fall foliage, and Bridgewater State College is no excep- tion. On the fringe of the campus, the trees around Carver Pond shows the true colors of autumn in its spectacular hues of yellow, red and orange. m 1 ■ Taking in the Campus Scenery The breathtaking campus scenery of Bridgewater State College is a source of favorable comments from visitors and a source of great pride to the students, faculty, administration, staff, and alum- ni. Upon seeing the campus for the first time, many people exclaim, This is how a college should like. Twenty-six major buildings, har- monious in distinctive red-brick architec- ture, are spread over a 170 spacious acres in a small college town. The quiet residental community of Bridgewater is a town of pleasant homes, small businesses, and scattered farms. The college enjoys an ideal location, a short drive from Boston and is situated on the South Shore, the fastest growing area in Massachusetts in population and businesses. The changing seasons of New England leave their mark. Each fall the many trees which line the campus paths turn into spectacular hues of brown, red and yellow in the cool breezes of autumn. Winter brings brisk, cold winds, occasional snow, and brillant blue skies. By late March, spring arrives and the Quadrangle is green once again. The breathtaking campus scenery and buildings is Bridgewater ' s best asset, reflecting the college ' s nearly 150 years. As the oldest existing campus structure, the Art Building Was built in 1906 as a gymnasium. Throughout the years, it has served as a library and a of- fice building. It now houses the Art Department and art classrooms. Just beyond commuter parking lot is the Shea Durgin Hall, largest residence hall on cam- pus, housing over 700 students. Sharing the Special Times The Bridgewater Family. Many students, as well as the rest of the college community of ad- ministrators, staff, faculty, and alumni, find it to be one of Bridgewater ' s most unique assets. Started in the early days of Bridgewater Normal School and con- tinued as the school grew into Bridgewater State College, the Family has remained as a caring and supportive campus community and environment. It reflects the college ' s belief that the col- lege years can be, and should be, years of adventure and happiness, full of fresh ideas, and enjoyable experiences. Being a part of the Bridgewater Family begins on the first day of Orientation and never actually ends, as the students graduate as a part of the over 25,000 alumni. The administration, faculty, and staff go out of their way to make the students feel at home, offering advice and solutions to problems. Over the years, students meet a wide variety of people in their classes, dorms, clubs and organizations. It is rare that they do not find people who soon become their best friends in celebrating the good times, and being there for the bad times. Sharing the special times with the Bridgewater Family is one of the unique realities of the Bridgewater experience. In front of the Campus Center, Lisa Apovian, Kim Haiman, Stephen Frati, Beth Welch, Bill Moreth, and Tina Pecoraro all hang out together. 10 Close friendships is one of the best reasons for joining a fraternity or sorority. Both Carol Pakiela and Sylvie Camacho are members of the Phi Pi Delta fraternity. Instant friends. Julie Affanato and Pamela Hall quickly get together for the camera, as they enjoy the music at the Fall Concert. New Friends! Incoming freshmen often find new friends by joining a club or organization. Carolyn Hearn, Linda Dutra, Michele Donnelly, and Krysta Koppenal are members of SARC (Student Alumni Relations Council). 11 Olympic Visions Rivaling the spirit of the Olym- pics, the Bears athletes achiev- ed the best in BSC Sports. Last year, Bridgewater won the Smith Cup, an honor that goes to the school with the best overall athletic achievement in the Massachusetts State College Athletic Conference (MASCAC). This year Bridgewater had to compete intensely to retain the Cup. Being the best is a part of the strong athletic program that predates the Civil War and the tradition continues to this day. For the particpiant or a observer, there is a large number of opportunities to be part of the Bears ' intercollegiate and intermural athletic program. There are 18 intercollegiate varisty teams for men and women and the inter- mural sports program includes flag foot- ball, volleyball, and street hockey, and club sports such as women ' s soccer, wrestling, and men ' s lacrosse. This athletic program allows the students, faculty, and staff opportunities to compete in a wide range of sports in an atmosphere that stresses sportman- ship, fun and enjoyment. The Bears roar as they rush toward the field just prior to the Homecoming Game against Worcester State. They won the game 20-13 and ended the season with a 6-1-2 overall record and by winning the MASCAC championship. 12 Limbering not only physically, Andrew Bernard limbers mentally as he prepares for the game against Suffolk University. The men ' s soccer team ended the game in 1-1 tie. Jumping high, Jeanne Gately eagerly deflects the ball to her teammate, Colleen Campbell. Women ' s soccer is a club sport. + _ v Student Life A unique part of the Bridgewater experience is the student life one experiences here on campus. Whether they are spectators or active particpants, students are a part of a wide variety of events, ranging from the formal to the fun. Living in one of the six dormitories or commuting to school is another aspect of student life, as well as having experiences that only college students can experience such as working the crazy hours of work-study, the intense desire to skip classes, or that sinking feeling just before tests (or worse, finals). It not just being a part of the events, or living on campus or commuting that makes up the student life ; it is being around friends and a college community, The Bridgewater Family, who care about making your col- lege years the best years of your life. This is what makes student life a special part of the memories of Bridgewater State College. 15 1 1 Over 400 people came to the All-College Barbecue , held behind the Kelly Gymnasium. The Welcome back . . . we missed you!, the bright administration created the event to help everyone red and white banner proclaimed as students in the College community to get to know each returned to Bridgewater in September. 16 Serving a hamburger, President Indelicato greets the many students, faculty and staff that came to the All-College Barbecue . Here he is with Betty Ann Wray, the Campus Center Reservationist. All the dorms were prepared to greet their new residents. Barbara Kowalczyk and her father Stanley move her worldly belongings into Pope Hall. Members of the Football Team helped their fellow classmates move in by carrying many of the heavy milk crates, boxes, and suitcases. It made moving in easier for many people. Moving In I didn ' t know that they had such impressivr talents, said President Indelicato of h. fellow adminstrators, Vice Presidents Deep and Chicarelli. Maybe next time, we ' ll try something more challenging, like pizza. There was a warm and friendly feeling in the air, as students prepared for their first day of classes. Residents were carting their belongings in boxes and milk crates into the dorms. Commuters arrived on campus to buy their books, as the new incoming freshmen went to the Campus Center Auditorium for their class meeting. That afternoon, an All-College Barbecue was held for the students, faculty, administration and staff behind the Kelly Gymnasium. Serving and cooking the hot dogs and hamburgers were the new president and the vice- presidents. It was then for the first time that many saw Bridgewater ' s new Presi- dent. For some it came as a shock. I can ' t believe he ' s cooking, and wearing shorts, said one upperclassman. It was terrific to see so many people having such a good time in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, said Indelicato. That sense of belonging together, of family, is important and needs to be fostered through our work, study, and recreation. Sophmore Karen Melanson enjoyed herself immensely. I think it ' s good that the president is out meeting the students, said Melanson. On this campus I think the students expect the President to be accessible. This was a good way to show it. Barbara Murphy 17 CltfS Leading the way for the pro- cessional are Dr. George Weygand, College Marshall, center, and class marshals Jac- qui Gravel and Kathy Ryan. This was the 26th consecutive year that Dr. Weygand has served as College Marshal. 1 i . Tradition, said Tevye, The Fid- dler on the Roof , Tradition is what gives us balance . . . Tradition is what keeps us from falling off the roof. With these words, the President ofj Bridgewater State College, Dr. Gerard Indelicato, began his message at the Convocation Exercises, offically opening the 146th academic year at the college. The largest Convocation audience in years was on hand in the Student Union Auditorium on Tuesday, September 16th, for the colorful ceremony which featured an address by Dr. William Mur- phy, Class of ' 63 and professor of special education. Convocation 1 m f m liiiiu f 1 BRIDGEWATER STATE COLLEGE J ' . 18 After the ceremony Christine Moore, Michelle Lombardo and Lisa Pakus wait to exit the Auditorium. They then went to the Commuter Cafeteria for the Convocation Luncheon. ■ Promptly on schedule the procession to the auditorium began, led by the Col- lege Marshal, Dr. George Weygand, Class of ' 53, and professor of physics. Representives of the four undergraduate classes followed Dr. Weygand, as well as Class of 1987, and other various student leaders. Following the President ' s message in which a challenge for Bridgewater to be the best state college in nation was presented, John Beaton, President of the Student Government Association, and Kevin Kinderegan, President of the Class of 1987, responded to the President. John Beaton, in his response, said the students welcomed the challenge which the college president has placed before the community, a theme echoed by Kevin Kindregan. Our class can be the first to embrace academic ex cellence as a goal, and someday in the future, when a historian seeks out when Bridgewater students accepted the challenge, that historian will say, ' Yes, this is where it began, with the Class of ' 87. Dr. Murphy, who delivered the Con- vocation address, said that he had ' per- sonal response ' to the challege which Dr. Indelicato had presented. He felt that for Bridgewater to become the best state col- lege in the nation, resources must first be obtained to achieve that goal. The lessons are right in front of us, he con- cluded, We can see where we ' ve been and we know where we are. And we have a vision of where we want to go. I have every confidence that working together, we will get there. And thus, Bridgewater State College opened the academic year with a vision and a challenge to be the best state collge in the nation. Bridgewater Today sc f ■ t • r -  Marching in step, the Class of 1987 proceeds toward the Auditorium for the 146th annual Con- vocation Ceremony. Addressing the Class of 1987, Dr. William Mur- phy urged the class to help Dr. Indelicato fulfill his goal for Bridgewater to become the best state col- lege in America. Dr. Murphy was the first faculty member to be selected as the Convocation speaker. • S 19 Mack the Knife (J™ Colby) spends an evening with a few friends.

Morning Anthem. 20 Threepenny Opera The Ensemble Theatre kicked off their 1986-87 season with Ber- tolt Brecht ' s satrical musical, The Threepenny Opera . With the book and lyrics by Brecht and music by Kurt Weill, The Threepenny Opera , is a story of Mack the Knife who is a rogue, thief and murderer. To quote the direc- tor ' s note from the program, the over- riding theme of all of Brecht ' s work that we are puppets or prisoners of corrupt social forces is immediately apparent in Threepenny . In directing a show with so much social commentary, Dr. Ramczyk drew inspiration from American Vaudeville and Burlesque houses. The cast viewed movies of such film greats as the Marx Brothers, W.C. Fields, Th e Three Stooges, Mae West, and the Keystone Cops to use as examples to help the with the task ahead. The cast of The Threepenny Opera received the honor of working with some very special guests. To fill out the cast, in the role of of J.J. Peachum was a professional actor, Thomas Oleniacz who made himself available for discus- sions and workshops for the theatre students as well as his fellow cast members. They also had a professional designer, Penny Walrath-Bullard. Ms. Walrath took great steps to see that the show had the desired Burlesuqe motif to succeed. Students took advantage of their guest costumer designer by spen- ding many hours in the costume shop helping to complete the costumes for the show.

The Fall Concert Campus Center Program Com- mittee sponsored their annual fall concert on September 12, 1986. Originally scheduled to be held behind the Campus Center, the impending threat of rain brought the concert inside the Commuter Cafeteria. But even this last minute change of loca- tion did not dampen a great performance. The concert featured Human Factor , a Hartford-based band who played many cover songs as well as some of their own original songs. Human Factor ' s first set contained several older Police tunes, some Prince as well as Ain ' t Nobody by Rufus and Chaka Khan. The second set of more Police songs, several originals, and blistering version of Inxs ' What You Need. Despite Mother Nature ' s contribution to weeks of planning, the Fall Concert was a great success. Decorations went up, balloons passed out, and food was cooked under the ledges of the caferteria roof. The only thing missing was the ants in the grass!! People danced and bopped around the Commuter Cafeteria to the highly energetic sound of Human Factor. The turnout for the event was only slightly less than usual, and everyone at- tending enjoyed themselves. The hard work of the Program Committee was not in vain as the annual Fall Concert prov- ed to be a blast! Donna Boudreau 23 Displaying a natural friendiness and enthusiasm, members of the Program Committee, Jane Flynn, Peg Corbett, Donna Boudreau, Karen Walton, and Bonnie MacDougall manned a table in the Ballroom. Open House O verwhelming is definitely the word to use. This year ' s Open House was an enormous suc- cess, says Dr. Gerard In- delicato, President, describing the tur- nout of parents and prospective students who came to Bridgewater for the annual fall Open House. A crowd estimated at 3,500 people spent Sunday afternoon, November 16, taking bus tours of the campus, atten- ding admissions and financial aid infor- mation sessions, and visiting with pro- fessors, students, and administrators at various displays and booths set up in the ARCC Ballroom. Traffic at one point was tied up well back on Route 24 and the campus park- ing lots were quickly filled. Guests began began arriving shortly before noon, even though Open House did not begin until 1:00 p.m. By the time Open House was finished at 4:00p.m., the consensus was that this was by far the most successful ever. President Indelicato, who greeted parents and students at each Information Session, (where there was standing room only ) said, Admission to Bridgewater is very competitive. The at- tendance today gives you some idea just how competitive. We are committed to becoming the best state college in We ' re very, very pleased with the turnout, Dean of Admissions said, surveying the large crowds which packed the ARCC Ballroom. And I think our faculty, students and staff did a fine job of making people feel welcome and providing them with useful information. I think students and their families thinking about college got a good idea of the kind of school Bridgewater is, said Indelicato. The warmth and pride they saw and felt from our faculty, students, and administrators is genuine. They got an accurate impression of how special this campus really is. 24 Showing a picture, Professor Alice Kirby and Dr. Lidia Medeiros explain to a prospective student what the Special Education major is all about. 1 f fife Hfl Hnfe - ■ MP ' - Ww°wf ■ if Tw w n ■ Outlining the basic requirements, Ms. Nanette Baines of the Admissions Staff answers a question about the admissions process.

A renewed sense of pride and spirit on the Bridgewater State College campus made this year ' s Homecoming Celebration, held on the weekend of November 1, a little extra special. Planning for this year ' s Homecoming began just after last year ' s Celebration was over. Planning so early was a change, however, last year ' s Homecom- ing Committee chairperson Dan Darcy felt that new fresh ideas were needed as well more manpower to help plan and put on the entire weekend. This year ' s Homecoming Committee Chairperson was SGA Vice President Erin McDer- mott, and helped to organize this year ' s extravaganza. A major highlight of the Homecoming Celebration was Homecoming parade, held on Saturday at 11:00 a.m., which was coordinated by Parade Chairperson Mike Volpone, who was last year ' s Heritage Day Parade Chairperson. The Parade included eight floats, a marching band, and President Emeritus Adrian Rondileau as Honorary Parade Marshal. Monster Mash Dash, sponsored by the Program Committee, was a new event added to the Homecom- ing agenda. As one of the participants, Elaine Flaherty was a bug being chased by a can of Raid. Oohs and Aahs for Bridgewater ' s royalty. Homecoming King and Queen were announced during the halftime at the Homecoming Football Game. The honors went to seniors Heidi Berry and John Pozerski. 27 Homecoming ' 86 The winners of the Homecoming Parade Float Competition were the Stu- dent Alumni Relations Council, winning Third Place; the Student Government Association, winning Second Place, and First Place went to the Sigma Chi Fraternity. The heartbreak story of the Parade centered around the four floats the Alumni Office helped to sponsor; The Class of ' 87 King and Queen Nominees float, the Young Alumni Float, the Athletic Hall of Fame float (assisted by the Greek Council) and Stu- dent Alumni Relations Council float. The floats were constructed primarily of cardboard material, and just minutes prior to the start of the parade, strong gusty winds blew the float over, spewing cardboard onto the field behind the Kel- ly Gym. Only the SARC float managed to stay together, and went on to win third prize in the float competition. A dramatic come-from-behind victory in the Homecoming Game versus Worcester State College provided an ex- citing and happy conclusion to Bridgewater ' s Homecoming Weekend. Tailgating parties was one of the many events students got together and enjoyed themselves dur- ing Homecoming. Shown here are Front Row: Bret Morgan, Tom Devin, Andy Thomas, Rob Sarnie.

A dramatic, come-from-behind victory in the Homecoming football game versus Worcester State College Lancers provided an appropriately happy conclusion to the Homecoming Celebration. The Bears were 20-13 winners in the inaugural game between the two schools. Homecoming ' 86 The Bears were 20-13 winners in the inaugural game between the two schools, thanks to a pass interception by cornerback Gary Lane in the fourth quarter which he returned for a touchdown. Gary Camarillo booted field goals of 31 and 40 yards plus two PAT ' s, and Frank Dennison scored a touchdown as well (he had his third straight 100-plus yards running game). All throughout the game, the fans ' spirit was tremendous and helped the Football team roar to victory. Remarked Alumni Director Phil Conroy, the spirit was fabulous; it ' s the most school spirit I ' ve seen in years. Returning to the tradition, during halftime the Homecoming King and Queen were announced by President In- delicate The honors went to seniors Heidi Berry, from Danvers, and John Pozerski, from Brockton. Indelicato also presented Bridgewater State College scarves in appreciation to the student leaders, Erin McDermott, Dan Darcy, Christine Hayes, and Mike Volpone for their efforts to make Homecoming such a success. That evening, students turned out to celebrate at the Homecoming Mas- querade Ball, sponsored by the Class of 1987. Students donned their costumes, and danced to music of DJ Paul Bonitto. Celebrating at the Masquerade Ball and other parties on campus and off provid- ed a happy conclusion to Homecoming Weekend. As one of Bridgewater ' s most treasured traditions, Homecoming 1986 continued to be a success, as the vision of the Homecoming Committee turned into reality, creating a very special and exciting weekend for Bridgewater State College. Ron Pettit 31 Christmas Festivities Years ago, there was a tradition of students going caroling around campus and musically celebrating the coming of the holidays. With the many changes the College has undergone past several years, it seemed as if that tradition had been lost. Several people began, with the help from the Choral Society, to try to bring the tradition back by presenting an even- ing of festivities on December 5, 1986, which included a Reception, the Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony, and the Choral Society ' s annual Christmas Concert. The Reception was held at Tillihghast Hall was held at 6:30 p.m. as refreshments were served and light cocktail music was played by a live musicians. At 7:30, the Christmas tree was lighted, followed by a candlelit pro- cession to the Horace Mann Auditorium for the Christmas concert with a punch reception following. The Chorale program consisted a variety of musical selections ragning from Rachmaninoff ' s Ave Maria to Fantasia On Christmas Carols by Robert Vaughan to My Lord What A Mornin ' , a spiritual by Harry T. Burleigh. The major work of the evening was To Us A Child Is Born , Cantata No. 142 by Johann Sebastian Bach. The audience was also invited to sing along with the chorus in a few traditional Christmas carols. Heather Eggert Over several hundred turned out for the evening of Christmas festivities, and a fun time was had by all. 32 With the Tree in the background, several students pose for the camera, just moments after the lighting ceremony took place.

The first band of the night was The T-Birds , doing Summer Days, Sum- mer Nights from the movie Grease. They were a great opener, as their choreographed steps and great lip-sync set the mood of the evening. Next up was U2 and they did ex- cellent lip sync to a couple of U2 favorites from their live album. Third on the star-studded list was Jumping Jack Flash , doing the Stones ' tune of the same name. Jack reminded everyone of the real Mick Jagger, right to the stage gymnastics. RTM ' 87 was next with their version of Sandman , complete with nightshirts and teddy bears. The Show was the next act to perform, do- ing a very special rendition of Whole Lotta Rosie by AC DC. The sixth act of the evening was Magnum and the Mannequins with Robert Palmer ' s Addicted to Love , complete with six girls in white makeup and black dresses. Last, but not least, were The BSC Boys with You Gotta Fight for Your Right to Party . The BSC Boys were great, and had the Rap At- titude down perfectly. After the encores and the judges tallied their decisions, the results were: in third place, winning $25 was RTM ' 87 ; in second place was Magnum and the Manneguins , winning $50; and in first place, for $100 was The T-Birds .

Where else in mid-March would you find sand, swimming, beach balls, and 400 people in multi- colored jams all looking for fun? The Campus Center Cafeteria may have been one of your last guesses, but on March 28th, a little sunshine crept into the Commuter Cafeteria during Ray Boston ' s Beach Party. The idea originated when the Campus Center Program Committee felt that students needed a little lift from those mid-winter blues. The beach party con- sisted of swimming pools, a golf-course, twister game, beach, ice cream stand, and so much more. Ray Boston provided a lively assort- ment of music ranging from We ' re Hav- ing a Party to Surfin ' U.S.A. , as well as judging dance contests and awarding orange Ray Boston Lifeguard t-shirts to the winners. Students took advantage of all that the beach party had to offer, including lying in lounge chairs in the sandy beach area and splashing and dancing in the pools. They also ate Ben Jerry ' s ice cream and boogied, twisted, and wormed on the dance floor. All who attended this sold out event were happily surprised at all the party offered, and a great time was had by everyone. Some friends enjoying the sand and sea at Ray Boston ' s Beach Party.

(shortened from Knowledge, Interest, Creativi- ty and Kinetic energy) was formed by students in a public relations class, setting out to do something about the problem of student apathy as well as getting a part of their semester grade. The Spirit Day Campaign began in early Febraury, as the class elected Brian Alford, Diane Mills, and Tom Tuttle as their chairpersons, and responsibilities were broken down and each student was in charge of a particular event. Promoting Spirit Day to the college community was an important step in the process of organizing the event. The strategy was to have an element of sur- prise during the promotional campaign. Tidbits of information were slowly filtered out of the KICK organization and into the Comment and Bridgewater Today, through flyers and word of mouth. On April 22, the day appeared cold cloudy, and gloomy. That was only the weather, it was the spirit of KICK and the estimated over 350 students that kept the momentum at a high. Dr. Indelicato opened Spirit Day with a speech stressing the importance of having a positive attitude where you learn. Contests such as the Jellybean Guess, and What ' s in the Box were plen- tiful. Barbecue style food was served, thanks to Food Services. Also in conjunction with spirit Day was Hands Across Campus, organized by Karen Medeiros and Shirley Placid, and helped in presenting the message of togetherness. Ending the day was the planting of a blue spruce tree to commemorate the first Spirit Day, with the hope that as the tree grows, so will the spirit of Bridgewater State College.

Yelling a most spirited Bridgewater State Col- lege was a requirement in claiming a prize. Here, Tom Tuttle makes Jane Flynn do a spirit cheer. 42 The time was right for Bridgewater State College to have a Spirit Day. It was a perfect time for all to get close and have some fun. There is nothing quite like friends getting together to support a cause. In this case, it was Spirit Day and Hands Across Campus . In conjunction with Spirit Day was Hands Across Campus to help promote campus unity. 43 Atop a hill at the Pits, a site for many of the events Building a pyramid, members of the Phi Pi Delta of Greek Week, fraternities and sororities watch fraternity join in with spirit of Greek Week. their brother and sisters compete.

Greek Week As the biggest event of the year for the Greek fraternities and sororities, Greek Week is sponsored annually by the Greek Council. The annual event helps to promote unity between the different greek organizations and fulfills the Council ' s main goal the best. The Third Annual Greek Week was held in late April, and consisted of Olympic Game events at the Kelly Gymnasium and the Pits. Events includ- ed volleyball, singing contests, pyramid building, and included the new events inaugurated last year such as twister, musical chairs and miniature golf. Beginning Greek Week was a kick-off party at the Rathskeller, and a cook out was held at the Catholic Center, and a dance was co-sponsored by the SGA amd the Greek Council at the C ampus Center Ballroom. The fraternities and sororities com- peted in the Olympic Game events to either win the trophy or just to have fun. In the events where they compete for the trophy the first, second and third place winners gain a certain number of points. The fraternity or sorority with the most points wins the trophy. This year ' s champions was Phi Pi Delta, dous success, as many different fraterni- ty and sorority brothers and sisters had a lot of fun of being together for a week.

Once again the Outdoor Concert was brought in- side to the Commuter Cafeteria. Despite the horrid weather condi- tions, the Spring Concert was a huge success. The concert featured the New York based band, The Touch. The band played many top 40 hits with terrific likeness to the the original singers. The lead singer hit the high notes of Janet Jackson ' s When I Think of You with such accurateness that listeners would not believe it was a male vocalist. The band also sang Point of No Return, several U2 songs and much more. The concert was the result of many dedicated hours of members of the Program Committee. The last minute change of location did not dampen any spirits, and students danced around the cafeteria to the beat of The Touch . This versatile and lively group has such an incredible sound, and we are bound to see more of them on the college circuit and beyond. The band gets an A for a terrific performance. And the indoor concert? Let ' s just say it was worth staying in for. Donna Boudreau Is it live or is it Memorex? Really, is he listening to the band or his Walkman?

The Class of 1989 Of- ficers asked to help with putting on the only semi-formal dance at Bridgewater during the year, and the Class of 1988 Officers eagerly accepted the offer. What resulted was a very special night to remember for all those attended. Enjoying the night at the Spring Ball are Bobby Fries, Sharon Guilmet, Gail Lucchese, and Stephen Stabile. Ladies on the town are Annie Roy and Marthy Ed- dy with their friend Emily ( center ).

The Spring Ball is made especially for couples such as Neal Pokat and Tracey Nee. 50 Spring Ball As Bridgewater ' s only semi-formal during the year, several hundred students grab the opportuni- ty to dress up and to have a night on the town. Held on Wednesday, May 6, the Spring Ball was renamed the the Spring Candlelight Ball due to the decorating theme of having candlelight on every table. It was held at the Imperial Room at the ritzy Park Plaza Hotel in Boston and entertainment was provided by the band Moonlight , and DJ Paul Bonitto. This year ' s Spring Ball was a qualified success, as the event was sold out over three weeks in advance. The officers made room in the floor plan to add over 50 more couples because of the demand for tickets. The success was also due to the hard work of the officers who spent many hours publicizing the event, plan- ning the floor plan, entertainment, menu, and selling the tickets. Through their efforts, they made the annual Spring Ball a night to remember. Organizing the Spring Ball were the Class of 1988 and 1989 Officers. They were Sylvie Camacho, Carol Mulgueeney, Patricia Greico, Christine Despres, Elizabeth Hallal, Linda Egan, Christine Howard, Sharon Cignetti. Enjoying themselves at the Spring Ball are Elaine Flaherty, John Leahy, Lisa Reitman, Vinnie Donegan, Donna Boudreau, Russ Gasbarro.

The major highlight of the weekend was the Heritage Parade in which the Heritage Day Committee planned the parade to be the largest extravaganza ever, with marching bands, twenty floats, antique cars, and a special feature attraction of the famous Clydesdale horses as they appeared in the parade for the first time. Ms. Ellen Cuttle of the Office of Alum- ni Relations and Development coor- dinated this year ' s parade, and she said, This will be a spectacular parade because so many people have con- tributed their time, energy, and ideas. Against the New York Skyline, F. Scott Longo and Debbie Sammons dance at the Esprit Ball. F.

Al D ' Errico, a graduating senior with a physical education major, is the president of the Phi Pi Delta fraternity who sponsored this entry in the Heritage Day Parade. Winning First Place in the Heritage Day Parade was the Woodward Hall float, who have won two years in a row. Mindy Craver was the teacher in the mini-classroom float, complete with a blackboard, desks, and students. 54 With lots of enthusiasm, the Alpha Eta Rho com- petes with their float which included a replica of the Wright Brothers ' plane. Alpha Eta Rho also particpated in the day ' s festivities with a airplane fly-over, doing formations and aerial stunts. The first Heritage Day Parade took place in the spring of 1982. Mr. William G. Mullen III, then the President of the Student Government Association, and Mr. Peter Hartel, formerly of the Office of Student Services, developed the idea and since then every following year the parade has grown in size, making it now the largest college parade in New England. That evening, the Inaugural Ball took place in the Campus Center Ballroom, while in the Commuter Cafeteria, the student inaugural celebration, Esprit took place. The Commuter Cafeteria was transformed into a glitzy nightclub com- plete with giant video screens. On Sunday afternoon was the In- vestiture Ceremony and Dr. Gerard In- delicato took the oath amidst the colorful and enthusiastic celebration. Presiding at the investiture was Dr. George Weygand, college marshal and professor of physics, and the invocation was read by the Reverand James S. Findlay of United Church of Christ, Can- ton. Closing the ceremonies with the benediction was Father Robert Connors.

Dr. William O ' Neil, president of the Massachusetts College of Art delivered the inaugural address, and he said, He is committed to offering students a quali- ty education . . . He will always demostrate a genuine concern for the welfare and the well-being for the in- dividual students, and he will always be a strong advocate for the proper number of faculty, learning resources, and facilities necessary for the students to achieve their goals. At the same time, he will never relent on his high expecta- tions for the students who attend Bridgewater, so that they, in turn, will have high expectations for themselves, their families, and their college. Dr. Weygand then introduced Gover- nor Michael S. Dukakis to offically in- duct into office the ninth president of the college. Governor Dukakis addressed the inaugural audience, speaking of im- portance of education in the economic success and the future of the nation and also speaking of the need to create a sense of community. With pride and dignity, Dr. George Weygand, college marshal and professor of physics, leads the procession into the Adrian Rondileau Campus Center Auditorium. Offically inducting Dr. Gerard Indelicato into the office of Bridgewater ' s ninth President was the Governor of the Commonwealth, Michael S. Dukakis. With pride . . . and great optimism about the Col- lege ' s future, I assume the presidency full of con- fidence that together we will continue the building of a great institution. 56 Posing for the camera just prior to the beginning of the Inv estiture Ceremony are some of the student delgates, Ed Nicoletti, Karen Walton, Lisa Veilleux, and Dean Toppi.

Jumping out of the cake, the King and Queen of the Hill and their court (Shea Durgin ' s Executive Board) sing Happy Birthday to You . . . One of the great tasks Dr. Indelicato has before him, as every president or governor has before him or her, is to try to create a sense of community, that sense of caring, among faculty and students and alumni, and the town in which you happen to be located. Gerry Indelicato has what it takes to create that sense of community, and I think you ' re beginning to realize that ... I know he ' s serious when he says he want this to be the best state college in the land. I ap- plaud him for that, because we ' ve got to aim high and our goals, and standards, and aspirations must be far-reaching.

The future for us in this Commonwealth is unlimited, and the future of this college is unlimited. Governor Dukakis then asked Dr. In- delicato to join him at the podium and inducted him as the the ninth president of the college. In his address, President Indelicato talked of the college ' s mission, stressing the importance of teaching, and scholar- ship, and urging his colleagues to join him in developing new inititives in what he termed the liberating arts. Also in his address, Dr. Indelicato said, ... I use this opportunity to make a public avowal of my faith in the princi- ple of equity and excellence, those same enduring principles which have guided my predecessors over the course of 147 historic years. 59 Graduation 1987 On Saturday May 23, 1987, a total of 810 undergraduate and graduate degrees were conferred on a blustery Saturday at Bridgewater State College ' s 147th Commencement Ceremonies. The average citizen must broaden his political education and participate in the process for the common good instead of the professional activists operating out of self-interest, said U.S. Magistrate Joyce London Alexander. We all need to participate in political life and community life, said Magistrate Alexander. We must have the ability to reshape society so it will respond to the needs of the poor and disfranchised. Par- ticipate for self-interet and the common good. She attacked the hidden bariers to op- portunity and underlying signs of discrimination that still exist in a free and open post-civil rights era America. Don ' t inhibit the freedom of move- ment, Alexander said. No implied signs of ' Go where no man has gone before. ' This is not Star Trek. This is America. By simply particpating in disputes over what common good should be, citizens improve society, Alexander said. She closed with a axiom that summed up her entire 18 -minute speech on par- ticpatory democracy: Do something. Be involved. Say to yourself: If it ' s to be, it ' s up to me. Magistrate Alexander was the first black women to be sworn in to U.S. Magistrate in August 1979. Currently, she is chairman-elect of the Judicial Coucil of the National Bar Association and the Chairman of the Massachusetts Black Judges Conference, among many legal professional affiliations.

Scandals included Presidental can- didate Gary Hart dropping out of the race after a well-publicized tryst with Donna Rice, minister Jim Bakker and wife Tammy being ousted from their PTL Ministry after a takeover by Rev. Jerry Falwell, and at last, but not least, the Iran-Contra scandal where money used from illegal arms sales to Iran was diverted to the contras in Central America. So, in 1987, events happening in our state, nation, and around world con- tinued to shape our lives, and in ways we had never envisioned.

The working hours on campus are short, scattered and are hard to come by. But we are willing to do anything for a little pocket money, to pay for the phone bill, to eat, to sur- vive, (or worse, pay for the car!). Take your average Campus Center In- formation booth employee who works from 8 am to 8:50 am, 12:00-2:00 pm and any other odd hour that fits into the schedule, all to serve you. Let us not forget the early morning breakfast crew who rise with the sun to serve us breakfast at Tilly and the Hill. What about the Rat employees who have to bartend and waitress during all the Djs and bands, serving their favorite friends instead of enjoying an evening out? Speaking of friends, how could we forget those dedicated bus drivers? The ones you ' d like to kiss when they turn the corner during a torrential downpour.

You see students working all around the community — Papa Gino ' s, Rico ' s, Super Place, Decelles. Not, we ' re not working 9 to 5, but we certainly are working hard (and crazy) hours to combine studies with a little financial self-support. Working your way thru school is not an easy task to complete. But, we get thru, with a little help from Christmas break, Spring Break, and of course, Mom and Dad. (Thanks!)

But what happens on Thursday night that carries right through to Sunday? This is the time when the social develop- ment of college comes through with full force. After a long week of classes, it is definitely time to have some fun. Nightlife in Bridgewater is not com- parable to Boston or New York, but it is not undertaken without the upmost en- thusiasm and spirit. In the Rat, Eleanor Plotner and friend socialize, takign a break from studies. The key word in socializing is to have fun, like the three girls in one of the area bars. Bands in the Rat often add excitment to the Nightlife at Bridgewater. Afterhours On the calmer side of things, we can see a movie in Brockton at discounted prices, attend programs in the Campus Center such lectures or comedy shows, or stay in the dorms watching TV, chat- ting with friends or attending one of the dorm parties. If we ' re looking for something more adventurous, the Campus Center has the Rathskeller where we can come and have a beer or soda, some popcorn, and socialize with our friends in an at-home atmosphere. Off campus nightlife includes parties, at fraternities, houses, or apartments. But where do we go when the Rat closes, the parties are broken up, and there ' s nothing left to do?? To Tony ' s of course. Tony ' s will always remain Larry ' s in the hearts of many graduating seniors. This small but eloguent bar is the host of many late night parties where friends find old friends, and make new friends. Other places we can go off campus to include the Wooden Nickel, which often has Thursday evening entertainment with my favorite DJ and yours -Paul Bonitto. Julio ' s can not be compared to anywhere for its ever delicious stuffed pizza and cold beer. And we ' ve often caroused to Costello ' s, the Portugese club, and had our ever popular homecoming adventures at the Citizen ' s Club. Being here at Bridgewater has left us with many funny stories, many I can ' t believe I did that last night , and many fond memories. The social side of college and the nightlife has teaches us things we don ' t learn in the classroom. More importantly, it is what will leave with us, some of the best friends we ' ve ever had, and friends we will continue to grow with. And I think that, in a nut- shell, is what college is all about. Donna Boudreau As the center of the social center scene, the Rathskeller is a place where many students go to relax and socialize. The Rat often shows movies and video concerts on its giant sceen TV, and is an attraction for many of its customers. Hanging out together, this group of friends, in- cluding Scott Esau, John Dupuis, Erin McDermott and two other friends, enjoy the sounds at the Fall Concert. 75 F E A T U R E S Spring Break Classes had ended and books were put away, to remain closed for seven glorious days. Suitcases had been packed since Wednesday, awaiting pa- tiently for this wonderful moment to come. They emptied their rubbish and unplugged appliances, shades were drawn half-mast, and lights were turned off. Spring Break ' 87 had arrived. For some, it was a chance to spend time at home, relaxing with families, or working to earn spending money for the remaining weeks of school. For most, it was a chance to break loose and and to have some F-U-N!! Students headed for every warm tropical geographic area imaginable: the Bahamas, California, Jamaica, Ft. Lauderdale — the list is endless. For seven fun-filled days they enjoyed the balmy days and breezy nights, the tur- quoise waters, and white blinding sand. Waiters walked on the beach, wanting to serve cocktails and fast food. Girls looked at boys, and boys looked at girls. Success was rated on the smallness of waist, the skimpiness of your bathing suit, and the darkness of your tan lines. Nightlife was everywhere, as millions of people of the same age were drinking, socializing and partying. But as everything is, it ends all too soon. Seven days fly by quickly, and soon you find yourself at the aiport, waiting to board the plane home. But not empty-handed. Souvenirs, rolls of films, t-shirts, and sand in everything you own bring back many fond memories. Donna Boudreau On her way to class, Jennifer Coates is with a tour salesman, trying to sell her a tour package for Spring Break to Florida. Jennifer opted not to go on the tour. 76 77 September 2nd . . . Woke up for classes with all good intentions, Attendance was cancelled today — did I mention? (So, I stayed in bed for the rest of the day.) September 4th . . . It was almost noon and I was ready to much, And I mistakenly scheduled my classes through lunch! (Took the day off due to severe hunger pains.) Procrastination 101 Couldn ' t resist the temptation to put off writing that paper, couldn ' t you? Napping soundly . . . Caught us photographing him napping soundly. October 1 st . . . I woke up this morning and it was pouring rain, And I left my umbrella at home, what a pain! (Stayed in bed to avoid the cold and flu season.) October 17th. . . Fire alarms rang 12 times just today and tonight, They rang, and I went outside in my PJ ' s. (Felt I needed a day to catch up on sleep.) November 3rd . . . For two long months I ' ve done my best, But, I think I need a break from all this stress! (Took a mental health day.) December 1st . . . Snow started falling at twenty of noon, I realized I had also left my galoshes at home! (Had to stay in to avoid wet feet, and possible pneumonia.) December 20th . . . Went out last night to find some Christmas cheer, Sang Christmas songs and drank too much beer. (Never mind — home tomorrow — and this final was optional.) 78 The second semester went a little bet- ter but we definitely do have those times, when nothing, no one, was get- ting you of bed for classes. It ' s hard to be motivated when it ' s pouring rain and you don ' t own an um- brella or when there ' s a blizzard going on and they haven ' t cancelled school — yet. We ' ve all had our share of late night fire alarms, hangovers, papers not quite finished, or plain laziness that just prevents us from attending a class now and then. The trick is to learn the difference be- tween deing unmotivated and absolutely not caring. We all learn from our mistakes, missing notes when test time comes, professors not recognizing you — never mind your name. But after all, they were young once too, weren ' t they?? Donna Boudreau Having fun provides an excuse not to do school work Doing everything else but studying in the library The weather plays a big role in our decision to be productive or to be lazy. F E A 79 Attention Seniors: Things we ' ll miss the most and the least As we approach our departure from Bridgewater, we reflect on the four wonderful years we had here. There were cer- tainly some things that will stand out in our minds as we look back on our col- lege days, and as we begin our careers, there are definitely some things we ' ll miss the most about college life: Having scheduled classes starting at 11:00 a.m., allowing us to sleep late almost every morning. When you ' re employed, you can ' t take that kind of liberty. Having snow days. Your boss isn ' t go- ing to give the day off to drink madly or whatever it is you do because there ' s too much snow on the ground. Having cat-naps . You can no longer hide away for a few hours after class for an afternoon nap — unless you sleep in your car during your lunch hour. The Soap Operas. No longer can we have a crowd in the afternoon together to watch Days of Our Lives or General Hospital. We must keep up-to-date on the soaps during the Kiss 108 Update, vacations, and sick days. (Unless you have a VCR!) Sharing clothes. (Definitely for Apart- ment Dwellers Only) You no longer have six wardrobes to choose from, unless you are fortunate enough (?) to move in with five other people again. The other things we ' ll miss are: Lying out in the sun in March behind the dorm and amazing your family and friends with the first tan of the season. Care packages from your family, and receiving a few bills now and then in the mail. Late night chats about everything from studies to world peace, the cafeteria food to sex. Nightlife in the Rat — where else do you bring 200 friends together in one place? Jean Fitzpatrick ' s sex class — luckily you learned all that you needed to know in college. The ultimate feeling of that last final, term paper, class. The ultimate taste of Julio ' s stuffed pizza. The joy of getting time off: in December, March and all summer long. And most of all, we ' ll miss the friends and special memories at Bridgewater. As well as the sorrow of saying goo bye to professors, friends, the security col lege life, there are some the we ' ll good-bye with pleasure! The food. No matter how hard th try, it ' s not Mom ' s cooking. Housemother Security guards. Yo mother does not chase through tl house or ask your friends for ID ' s wh they stop by. Parking problems. One car, oi driveway, and one ' s day walk to get One of the things we ' ll miss most are our friends, and the Bridgewater Family. They helped to make our years special ones. One of other things we ' ll missed most was tr snow days (and some not so good excuses) to ski classes, to enjoy a day off from classes. 80 F E A T U R E S the house. Yee-ha! 8:00 am classes. Even most jobs don ' t start before 9 am. Whoever thought of that un-godly hour! Phone bills. At least your parents pay the monthly bills and installments, and they still have good credit with AT T. Registration. No longer an overnight stay in the Union foyer. Your job lets you came back after vacation without any problems! Finals. No more of that sick feeling in your stomach from No-Doz, too much coffee, nerves, and the feeling that oh, yes, you have once again waited to the last minute . Bookstore. Nothing will be missed about standing in many hours long lines to buy books and paying that of a down payment on a house, and selling books back in even longer line, and receiving enough to buy both you and your room- mate a Snickers on the way out. Laundry. No more hunting for quarters, and your Mom won ' t throw your clothes on the counter if you leave them in too long. Mondays on days other than Monday. Who has the sense to reaarange the days of the week? Having Mommy and Daddy opening the grade report before you do, and knowing that you have received less than outstanding grades. Donna Boudreau ■■■ i K W ' Certainly one of the least missed things will be studying late at night at the library for a test (or worse, finals) or writing a term paper. The parking lot. Need we say more, other than Good-bye! at the top of our lungs? ?!; :jsTeedle.ss to siy we ' ll a o .iayj sp? - SS tracj afldj he bijdg ' e no ne jeVej: uf trainj5-wg rajgly ever sfe porv fheTtfacki). •„ JS ' - 81 Pope Hall Pope Hall, named after Sarah Elizabeth Pope, houses over 160 upperclasswomen. Sarah Pope was a woman who was dedicated to Bridgewater State College for fifty-seven years as an instructor, Dean of Women, and the Executive Secretary of the Alumni Association. Pope ' s Executive Board for the 1986- 87 academic year consisted of Mary Beth Brady as President, Karen Leslie as First Vice-President, Maryann Mason as Se- cond Vice-President, Janet Donovan as Treasurer, and Susan Clark as Secretary. The Board had valuable help from the Resident Assistant, Patty Grieco, and the Graduate Resident Assistant, Linda Paltrineri. Activities in the dorm ranged from the formal to the fun. In November, a student-faculty gathering has held to greet Dr. Gerard Indelicato as Bridgewater ' s new President. On the lighter side of activities, a baby shower was held in honor of Timothy (who is Staff Assistant of Student Services) and his wife Carol Millerick ' s impending birth of their daughter Ashley in October. The Pope Hall Pages Editors, Bar- bara Kowalczyk and Jennifer Bryant, would like to dedicate these pages to retiring Housemother Irene Mello for her years of dedicated service to Pope Hall and her residents. 82 Are the girls in Pope really nuns? Not these vivacious girls who have fun everywhere they go! Shown are (from top to bottom) Peggy McTavish, Jane Campbell, Liz Ruggerio, Mary Wood, Deanne Marino, Susan Myers, Heidi Ganss, Patti Wheelock, Cori Lyon, Diane Duarte, Lisa Parrish, and Patti Grieco. Named for Sarah E. Pope, Pope Hall houses over 140 upperclasswomen, and is located on the lower campus across from the Adrian Rondileau Campus Center. Up . . . Up . . . Oops! At the All-Floors Party held in January, the ladies attempt to build a pyramid. Some people will do anything to get into the Yearbook! 83 Pope Hall One of the most exciting dorm-wide activities was an All-Floors party in January in which the Yearbook Photo Editor Henry Beckvold and Yearbook Editor Ron Pettit had the distinct pleasure (on top of being the only men at the party) of taking pictures for this layout. By far the most hilarious time any of us had was when Mr. Francis Cloutier, a professional hypnotist, came to Pope for a presentation on hypnotisism. Three brave young ladies (Mary Wood, Sue Myers, and Andrea Cieri) volunteered to be hypnotized and went where no one has gone before. Space travel, landing in other galaxies, Dating Game, and observing a nudist colony were just a few of the experiences they had without leaving their chairs. The more regular goings-on were hav- ing periodic birthday parties for all the girls who had birthdays the previous two months, going apple-picking in October, and having welcome diversions of movie nights with VCR and using the color TV to watch shows like Dynasty and Dallas, having coffee and donuts during finals, and doing aerobics to work off the donuts. All in all, it was a fun and exciting year at Pope Hall... Barbara Kowalczyk and Jennifer Bryant The Octopus is Renee Brunelle and her two unknown friends. Renee was elected in late spring to be the President of Pope Hall ' s Executive Board for 1987-88. Just hanging out Jannette Cummings, Lisa Duval, Amy Margulis, and Donna Tierney find a moment of rest in the Second Floor Lounge from the their busy schedules. 84 Up the Down Staircase!

Jennifer Bryant, Barbara Kowalczyk, and Barbara DiMartino are seen everywhere together, and also are always playing practical jokes on each other. Jen and Barbara were co-editors of the Pope Hall Pages. 85 Scott Hall Scott Hall, located on lower cam- pus, is named for former Presi- dent Zenos Scott and houses over 140 upperclassmen and upperclass women . A 3rd floor resident, Tim Pappalardo said, Scott Hall is the most convenient place to live on campus. It ' s only fault is lack of an elevator! He chuckled when he said that. Tim also whined that not enough people play Springsteen on the 3rd floor. Too much funk!! he exclaim- ed. Curtis Bailey, 2nd floor, said It ' s the best place to live on campus! It ' s close to classes. I ' ll miss it when I ' m gone. Other residents found Scott to have a much more mature atmosphere from other halls on campus. Ed Nicoletti of Room 126 had this to say, It ' s a mature, relaxed atmosphere. Very Quiet. A big change from the Hill. Tyler Falcone, a 3rd floor resident, said, It ' s much better than the Hill — being on Lower Campus is great. You ' re treated like an adult here. John Beaton of Room 122 said, I love living in Scott Hall. It allows you more freedom than the other dorms. The people are really responsible here. Just Hanging Out O ' Hara. are Matt Collins and Tom Huddled around their favorite place, the bar, are Rob Sarni, Joe Dwelley, Dave McKinney, Tim Philpott, Rick Waldren, and Chris Foglietta. 86 Scott Hall, named for former President Zenos Scott, houses over 140 students.

Brian Farley and Mike Gallagher pose for the yearbook camera. 88 Scott Hall Steve Lopes, Captain of the Men ' s Basketball Team, lives on 2nd floor. He was graduating senior and will miss Scott Hall. He said, I love the interac- tion with other residents! Everyone gets along well with one another. It is so con- venient! I get up 10 minutes before class. But, the best thing is, it ' s close to the gym! It ' s challenging to be an R.A. at Scott, said Neal Pokat, one of Scott ' s two Resident Assistants. He organized a fishing trip in fall on a charter boat. It was a great success. Mike Brewer, a 3rd floor resident, said It was a blast! I caught five fish! But, I threw them back! Non-residents also found Scott to be an exciting place and had similar things to say about the dorm. Paul Bonitto, renowned DJ on campus, said, Even though I don ' t live at Scott Hall, I like to visit my friends there and to do my laundry there! Diane Duarte, a member of the Program Committee said, I live at Pope but I love to visit Scott Hall! It ' s such a friendly atmosphere and the people are so nice!! Cori Lyon, from the Student Apartments, I love Scott Hall — I think it ' s cool. They throw great parties there! It ' s one of the nicest dorms on campus! Heidi Ganss What are you looking at, Brian, ask Brian Alford ' s friends, Mike Whelan, Frank Flaherty, Mike Dobbins. Has anyone seen my bleach, asks John Zalomis. 89 Wood Hall Woodward Hall, located on lower campus, is named for former professor, Sara Woodward, and is the oldest dormitory on campus. Wood Hall, housing over 260 women, consists of three floors with a basement known as the Pit for quiet hour studying. Tammy Canastra, the President of Woodward Hall ' s Executive Board, thought that Wood Hall is full of pride and tradition. All of us are very close, kind of like a family. We all share our problems with one another when we were down, and on a happy note, spread our joy among each other when we were happy. Wood Hall on the whole is a very tight unit. Sophmore Chris Manley said that Woodward Hall is an institution of a special kind of learning. One of Chris ' roommates is Kerry Horey who felt that the dorm has a positive approach. Wood Hall displays a friendly, united atmosphere which seems to be most beneficial to the in- coming freshmen. It is a dorm which houses most of the underclassmen, creating a place that feels like home. Drawing up a poster for the Dorm Christmas Par- ty, Tammy Canastra and Linda Walenty get help from their two friends. Just outside their room, roommates Tami, Tina, Lisa, and Dorrie poses for the camera. 90 K l n T 3 3l B l % v - t V ' -. 1? p 1 i a |S j ■ p 1 3! i ' •■■ ' ;« ■ | § ' . f -1 __ t I F ' - ' I L 1 , m mpi ■ «fe Mi _.,_. _ ,„ jlJI d lul ; ' J C fiJ Named for Sara Elizabeth Woodward, Woodward Hall is the oldest dormitory on campus.

' Tickle! Tickle! Now don ' t you feel good after a good laugh! You ' re right, NO!, I do not want my picture to be taken! 92 Sitting around in empty hallways is our favorite hobby! Late night with oh, no, not with David Letterman, but with Orville Redenbacher! Wood Hall Sophmore Lisa Dewing expressed that Wood Hall has an old-fashioned feeling of togetherness. Freshman Katie Tedeschi said, It is just like home without the parents! Yet, there is always someone around that cares. And if you need to talk, there is always someone there to listen, whether it be your roommate, your neighbor across the hall, or your R.A. (Resident Assistant). Resident Assistant Nancy Parkinson said that Wood Hall is the homest dorm on campus; a comfortable athmosphere where you can sit in the hall and talk, like a friendly community environment. Dianna Fiske, a freshman at Wood Hall, felt that Each person brings something different to the dorm, making it a unique atmosphere to live in. It is in continual living and learning experience as one progresses throug the year. Tracey Nee, presently living at the Student Apartments who had lived at Wood for the past three years and was a R.A. there her junior year, said, As I am working as a Dorm Security Guard, I see residents walking in and out of the dorm and in passing on the floors, I sense a feeling a closeness among them. It is like one big happy bunch. Susan Gentile 93 The Hill Shea and Durgin Hall, better known as The Hill , houses over 600 students who are pr imarily freshman and sophmores and is located next to the Student Apartments. Shea Durgin ' s Executive Board for the 1986-87 academic year consisted of Steve Roper as President, Liz Gilmette as First Vice-President, Cheryl Brown as Treasurer, Joanne Trodella as Secretary, Gretchen Yoder as Publicity Social Director, Lynn Perron as Residence Hall Council Representative, and Darryl Aviza as Food Service Representative. The Board had valuable help from the Head Residents, Maureen Healy and Amy Beckerman, and the Resident Assistants. For many students, living at the Hill is their first experience in living on their own away from home. At times, this ex- perience can be difficult and scary. However, the atmosphere at the Hill makes the transition easier and also a lot of fun. There are the Resident Assistants, two assigned to every floor, to help the residents if they have academic, social or personal problems. There is also the Ex- ecutive Board which programs events that encourages students to meet each other and have fun. This year, Social Director Gretchen Yoder said, we ' ve had tremendous suc- cess with all the events that we put on because of the great turnout and enthusiasm. Just two gorgeous ladies at the Hill; Michelle Conley and Lisa Orlandello.

The major event of the year, as the newsletter from Shea-Durgin Hall read, Happy Birthday to Me, 1967-1987 , was the twentieth anniversary of Shea- Durgin Hall. The annual Hill Week had a special meaning as between Tuesday, April 21, and going on to Saturday, April 25, many activities including dances, scavenger hunts, outdoor events, a com- edy night, and other happenings took place as the residents of Shea-Durgin celebrated the building ' s twentieth anninversary. The April issue of Roomers , the newsletter of Shea-Durgin, had this to say about the anniversary: History is my strong point although I ' m up on the more social issues as well. I survived the radical sixies, the screwy seventies, and I ' m more than halfway through the exotic eighties . . . The students who have live within the four walls of my building have been and are filled with pride and tradition. As promised by the Exec Board, Hill Week was an exciting and fun-filled celebration, just as living at the Hill is all year round. Ron Pettit Thursday nights become party nights, and enjoy- ing the fun are Warren Richards and Tony Gutierrez. As one of the benefits of the Hill is that it is co-ed, providing many opportunities to meet girlfriends or boyfriends in the same dorm. Joe Weathers is one lucky guy, knowing girls like Karen Joyce, Karen Maganello, Mary Flaherty, and Diane DeGloria. 96 On Fourth Floor Durgin lives this exciting group of girls; Nanci Burgio, Pam Guisti, Beth Farricy, Joanie Finnigan, and Karen Shine. Working as dorm security, Diana Sullivan enjoys living at the Hill for most of her friends live there. Always smiling, Shelley Nedeweckas has had a rewarding year as a Resident Assistant, helping new residents adjust to college and enhancing the dorm experience. 97 At their pad, Tom Vermilya, Kevin Kindregan, and Bob Walnista spend some time together.

You have such a dirty mind! Sara Marciniec is a member of the Program Committee. Apartments The Student Apartments are located on the upper campus, near Shea Durgin Hall. It is a 32 apartment complex housing approximately 200 students, 2 3 of which are women. Maureen Devaney, Secretary of the Executive Board and a resident of Apartment 2D said, I love living at the apartments! There is more freedom than in the dorms. I hope to continue living there next year! Jane Lemenager of Apartment 9C said, I ' ve learned time and money management. It ' s different from living in the dorms because you have to make your own meals and you must work together as a group or else there ' ll be conflict. You have to sacrifice and expect others to sacrifice for you. It ' s a give and take situation. Karen Medeiros of Apartment 7C had this to say, It ' s a good experience because you learn how to make compromises and work together with other people in group decisions. You get a greater feeling of independence than living in a dormitory or at home, yet you ' re still close enough to the campus. Pamela Kenny and Ellen Cuttle, both from the Class of 1982, reminisced of their apartment days. We loved the barbecues in the quad and entry 7. We like to think we were the welcoming committee of the apartments. We loved developing a sense of community with other apartments dwellers. We learned how to divide phone bills among six people. It was a more mature, independent college living experience. We learned to love Kraft Macaroni and Cheese and tuna fish! All in all, we LOVED it! 99 ' Too bad Lisa and Donna aren ' t here — then it ' d be complete. Their roommates are Kerry Quinlan, Kathleen Ahearn, Elaine Flaherty, and Jane Flynn.

All in all, I ' ve had a blast in the apartments and I ' ll miss them when I graduate! Summing up the apartment ex- perience, Jane Flynn of Apartment 3D said, It ' s great fun!! There ' s a great sense of comraderie, friendship, togetherness, and unity. It prepares you for living on your own after graduation.

It already had a strong foundation; the people at Bridgewater were friendly and helpful, and equally committed to the success of the college.

Indelicate As an alumni of Bridgewater, having graduated in 1971 with a bachelor ' s degree in education, Dr. Gerard Indelicato is the third graduate of the col- lege to become its president. Digging deep into the pumpkin, President In- delicato draws the name of Daryl Isles for the two tickets to a Celtics games he donated to the Wood- ward Hall Executive Board after they did a com- munity service project. Shown with Dr. Indelicato is Woodward Hall President Tammy Canastra. If he has it his way, Dr. Gerard In- delicato will be changing a lot of people. Changing people ' s percep- tion that is, on how people regard Bridgewater State College, because as he said in his inaugural address, Bridgewater is not the same as other colleges . In fact, his primary goal at Bridgewater is to make it the best state college in the nation . By improving the already good qualities and creating solu- tions to the problems Bridgewater has, he hopes to change people ' s perception of Bridgewater to a competitive institu- tion of higher learning, with a highly regarded faculty, and a solid academic program. Dr. Indelicato is a graduate of Bridgewater State College and it may be with his background that the feeling of accomplishment is evident. A Boston native, he earned a bachelor ' s degree in education from Bridgewater in 1971. After graduation, he served elementary teacher and later was appointed the first full-time Director of Community Education in the City of Brockton. In 1973 he earned his master ' s degree from Bridgewater, and in 1977 earned his Ph.D. from the University of Connec- ticut. At that time, Indelicato was selected as a Mott Fellow while com- pleting his doctoral studies. 124 FOCUS As Bridgewater ' s ninth president, Dr. Indelicato was offically inducted into office on May 3, 1987, by Governor Michael Dukakis. Also while studying for his doctorate, he was appointed assistant pro- fessor of education and associate director of the Northeast Community Education Project at the University. After earning his doctorate, he was appointed director of adult educa- tion in the Massachusetts Department of Education, remaining there until 1981 when he was named dean of undergraduate studies at Worcester State College. In 1983, Governor Michael Dukakis invited him to join his administration as Special Assistant for Educational Af- fairs. During his tenure he was in- strumental in the drafting of the most comprehensive education reform law in the history of the state. Missouri Governor John Ashcroft ap- pointed him in 1985 to a national task force on College Quality. The task force will continue to study college quality and will present its finding in a report scheduled in 1991. He received the Bridgewater Alumni Award in 1985, due to his efforts as Na- tionalChairman of the Bridgewater An- nual Alumni Fund Drive campaign. Speaking at the Convocation ceremonies, Dr. In- delicato stated that Bridgewater can be, and will be the best state college in the nation . With his wife, Paula, President Indelicato enjoys the atmosphere of Esprit , the student inaugural celebration in the Commuter Cafeteria which was transformed into a glitzy nightclub. 125 FOCUS Reduction of the incoming freshman class and advertisement for nine new faculty positions to reduce the faculty to student ratio, inception of 10 new full scholarship for qualfied black students, introduction of the Boyden Fellowship program allowing full semester from teaching to develop, research, initiation of the President ' s Lecture Series allow- ing faculty members to lecture on a topic of their expertise were among the many accomplishments Dr. Indelicato achieved in his first year toward improving the quality of learning at Bridgewater. Also, he has aimed at meeting as many people as possible, from students, their parents, prospective students, faculty, and staff. He has been everywhere, from All-College Barbecue, Open House, Christmas Tree lighting ceremony, Homecoming, Spirit Day, Heritage Day, Alumni Day were among the many events and programs he went to. In- delicato has stressed the need for achievement through a united campus. The person who best sums up In- delicato ' s first year is Dr. William J. Mur- phy, who spoke on behalf of the faculty and librarians at the Inaugural Ceremony at which Indelicato was of- fically inducted at president. Today we happily celebrate the in- auguration of the ninth president of Bridgewater State College . . . Our message to President Indelicato is this: we wish you well as you offically assume the presidency, and we know your tenure will be marked by great suc- cess and accomplishment. During your first year, said Dr. Mur- phy, you have shown that dedicated service, accessibility, interest in the Bridgewater tradition, and vigorous per- sonal support for the academic enter- prise are characteristics of your presiden- tial style . . . This has been a successful year, a year of important new scholarly initiatives, such as the Presidential Lec- ture Series and the establishment of a scholarship program for black high school graduates, and it ' s been a good year of communication among the segments of our college family, good communication that has meant, sidewalk chats, formal meetings, and continous recognition by you of in- dividual achievement and accom- plishment. A succesful year marked by many ac- complishments is an indication that Bridgewater State College is on its way to becoming the best state college in the nation , due to Dr. Indelicato ' s vision for Bridge water ' s future. Linnea Walsh Dancing at the Inaugural Ball are two presidents, President Indelicato and President Debbie Sam- mons. Ms. Sammons was elected in late spring to be the President of the Student Government Association for 1987-88. With milk and cookies, Dr. Indelicato entertains children from the Burnell Campus School. Dr. In- delicato takes an interest in all aspects of campus life. 126 Candids 127 128 b - Sports Bridgewater athletes envisioned being the best in Bridgewater State College sports. After winning the Smith Cup last year, an honor that goes to the school with the best overall athletic achievement in the Massasachusetts State College Athletic Con- ference, the Bears hoped to continue being the best . From varisty sports to inter- murals, there was a wide variety of choices for many students to be a particpant or a spectator. As students participated and supported Bridgewater ' s athletic program, they helped to make that vision into the reality of another successful year. 129 130 Football The Bridgewater State College Football Bears finished the 1986 season with their best record ever since the re-instatement of football at Bridgewater in 1961. The Bears, under the helm of twenty-one year coach Peter Mazzaferro, went 6-1-2 on the year. The Bears were crowned the MASCAC champions and placed four players on the New England Football Conference All-Conference Team and three on the ECAC All-Star Team. Punter place kicker Gary Carmarillo, who holds every punting and kick scor- ing record at Bridgewater, was named to the NEFC and ECAC All-Star Teams for the third year in a row. Defensive tackle Bod Fries was a unamimous choice for the NEFC Team as he was Bridgewater ' s leading tackier with 87 tackles and 11 QB sacks. Defensive end Doug Barnard and offensive guard were named first team ECAC All-Stars. After a season opening loss to Curry College (20-8), the Bears stormed past Fitchburg State (33-7) and Nichols Col- lege (20-8). The tie syndrome hit the gridders as the settled for a (7-7) score with powerful Plymouth State and a (14-14) score with Mass Maritime Academy in the eighth annual Cranberry Bowl. The Bears then picked up the pace Booting his last kick, Gary Camarillo remains at Bridgewater ' s all time leading punter and field goal kicker. Huddling up at a practice sesson, the Bears discuss a play as they work toward to making this season the best ever. 131 Posing with a Bridgewater Fireman, the Football Cheerleaders Lisa DiCicco, Jeannine Rasmussen, Julie Kane, Beth Ruppenthal, and Christine Glynn await the start of the Homecoming Parade.

Bridgewater then finished the season highlighting a muddy (12-0) win over Maine Maritime and captured the MASCAC Crown in a (13-0) win over Framingham State. Talented freshman running back Frank Dennison was the top yard getter with (619) yards, and was named ECAC Rookie of the Week for his (177) yard performance in the Bear ' s win over Westfield State. Transfer Tom Egan gained (514) yards from the fullback slot. Quarterback Mike Wallace was the team ' s top passer with (493) yards; Wallace also led the team in scoring (7) touchdowns followed by Dennison ' s (5). Tom Hartley snared the most receiv- ing yards with (210), followed by flanker Mike Goyetch with (169) yards. Defense played a big part in the ' 86 season ' s success allowing a total of (2045) yards. Big games of the year were Nichols College (70) yards total yardage, Westfield State (175) total yards and league leading Maine Maritime (172) total yards. The offense on the other hand gained an impressive (1468) yards on the ground and added (634) yards in the air for (2102) total offensive yards. At the start of the Homecoming Game, the Foot- ball Cheerleaders help the Bears roar on the field. The Bears won the game 20-13 over Worcester State. 132 1986 Football Team.

The Lady Bears placed second in the MASCAC with a 8-2 record and were seeded third in the ECAC Division III Championship held at Plymouth State College. Bridgewater bowed to Universi- ty of Southern Maine (1-0) in the open- ing round to end the 1986 season. Senior attack Sue Larson led the team in scoring with (11 goals, 3 assists). Goalies Amy Barton and Sharon Lee shared netminding duties and came up with goals against average of 94% and 33% respectively. Post-season honors included Sue Lar- son and Karen Nash being named to the MASCAC All-Conference Team. Amy Barton and Michelle Magner were named Honrable Mention on the MASCAC team. Led by captians Karen Frederico and Amy Barton, the Lady Bears were a young team comprised of many freshman and sophmores that got im- mediate experience.

Their fall season consists only of MASCAC opponents while in the spring the netmen play a more extensive, in- dependent schedule against various Division III teams. This year the Bears played better in the fall ending with a (3-4) record and a tie for third place in the MASCAC con- ference. In the spring they could only manage one win as they finished with a (1-7) season. Both team were completely different in their makeup as coach Joe Yeskewicz did quite a bit of juggling of personnel to put Bridgewater ' s best possible team on the court. In the fall the team captained by John Hayes and John Eaton was very competitive in most of the matches and had considerable depth with thirteen players. That number fell to seven in the spring with quite a few faces taking the court for Bridgewater. Even the captains were new with Jim Barton and Ross Keifer being chosen. One mainstay of both teams was freshman Ho-Jun Park who made the MASCAC All Conference team in the fall, and was the team leader in the spring. M -U jg .

Behind coach Linda Smith, the team also placed third out of approximately 22 teams at the prestigious MAIAW Tournament. Team Co-Captains Amy Gryzbinski and Pam Rollinson paced the team in the record setting season. Amy Gryzbinski was name to the MASCAC All- Conference team, as were Efi Cotsapas and Gina Barbero, however, they re- ceived the honors in singles only.

Co-Captains Jeff Terrio and Bob Graves led an impressive group of talented players. Jeff Terrio was the team leader in scoring with (4 goals, 4 assists). Mike Meers an aggressive midfielder, notched (4) goals. The talented brother combo of Mike and Larry Newcomb combined for (5) goals. Defensively, Andy Kasparis was an immediate success in the nets playing over 90% of the season and allowing a miniscule (1.13) goals per game. Two dominant figures in front of Kasparis were Scott Tolan and Paul Marino, who were aggressive and quick to react to the play. The highlight of 1986 season was an inspire 0-0 tie with Westfield State as Bridgewater had four top performers on the sidelines due to injury. The tie cost Westfield State the MASCAC Championship. Working together, Bob Graves and Mike Newcomb add excitment during the game, and notching another goal. In position for a header, Mike Meers attempts to get another goal.

Heading that list was junior Michelle Joohnson who became a three- time All- American in the javelin as she finished with a toss of 139 ' 9 . In the EC AC Championships two weeks prior, she threw the javelin for a personal record of 142 ' 7 . Senior Tom Keating also won NCAA All American honors in the 3000m steeplechase. With his fourth place finish he proceeded to break his school record by 5 seconds with a time of 9:05.59. Also making the trip west for Bridgewater were Gregg Cornell (5000m) and Ed Bombardier (800m). Both are the present school record holders in their respective events. In addition to these individual award winners the men ' s team took third place in the MASCAC Championship meet. The women ' s team had an off year as in- juries plagued them for the most of the season, in particular, captain Cheryl Cor- bett who was unable to compete most of the season. ' ' r ' Captain of the Women ' s Team, Cheryl Corbett, and Sue McCloskey both finish a hard workout. Keeping pace, Joe Reardon runs with 1987 Male Athlete of the Year Gregg Cornell. 143 Volleyball Enroute to a 14-11 overall season behind Coach Kimberly Motely-Phillips, the Women ' s Volleyball Team broke of the 500 mark in the latter part of the season. The volleyballers were 5-1 in the MASCAC League, which was good enough for second place. The team was led by Tri-Captains Cathy Karl, Sue Long, and Janine Fagan. Post season honors went out to Cathy Karl who was named to the MASCAC All-Conference Team. Sue Long was also selected Honorable Mention to the MASCAC team. The Lady Bears had an up and down season in which they were never able to get on any lengthy winning streak early in the year. There were many new faces on the squad and their consistency in play didn ' t really come around until the ending stages of the season, when they won seven straight matches. ■ During a practice session, Coach Kimberly Phillips gives the team a few pointers.

However, under fourth year Coach Mark Cham- pagne, the Men ' s Basketball Team re- bounded to finish with their best record in four years going (13-10). One of the season ' s highlights was capturing the Roger Williams Tourna- ment for the first time ever. The team also competed out of the country as they travelled to Montreal, Canada, where they played in the Concordia University Invitational Classic. Tri-Captains Steve Lopes, Chuck Jaehnig, and Jeff Barry were mainstays in the Bears lineup throughout the year. 6 ' 9 center Rich Maguire came back from first semester knee surgery to lead Bridgewater in both scoring 13.7 ppg and rebounding 7.4 rpg. Also scoring in double figures were Steve Lopes with 13.5 ppg, Rob Pimental with 10.8 ppg, and Chuck Jaehnig with 10.2 ppg. It was not uncommon to see four or five players scoring in double figures each night as the Bears played solid team offense and defense at both ends of the court. As one of the Tri-Captains, Steve Lopes during a game looks for an open man. During a timeout, Coach Mark Champagne talks things over with his players. 147 Women ' s Basketball The Lady Bears were on their way to the NCAA Division III Championships when an eligibility violation forced them to forfeit twenty games and to be overlooked for the tournament. Before the unfortunate event, they had com- pleted the season with a 22-3 record and the MASCAC Championships. The season had numerous highlights as Bridgewater captured the 1986 Manhattanville Tournament in New York, as guard JoAnn Runge was named the tournament MVP with center Mary Crawley making the all tourney team. Big wins over Clark University and Salem State during the year catapulted the Lady Bears to the 16 spot in the na- tional rankings of the NCAA. Senior JoAnn Runge finished an outstanding career at Bridgewater as she was named to the ECAC All Star team for third year in a row, a MASCAC all conference selection for a third time and a NEWBA Coaches all star for the fourth time. She was also honored at Bridgewater by being na med 1987 Female Athlete of the Year . Statistical- ly, she became only the third player to surpass the 1,000 point mark in a career while also giving out 600+ assists. This year Runge led the team in scor- ing, netting 12.4 points per game.

The men ' s vic- tories came at the hands of UMASS- Boston (93-68) and Connecticut College (78-77), while the women ' s only win was over UMASS-Boston (102-52). For the men, standout swimmers in- cluded David Savaria (middle distance free, sprint free, 100 butterfly), Lou Per- reira (diving), and Bryan King (100 breastroke). On the women ' s side, Joanne Ander- son (sprint free, distance free, butterfly, breastroke), Sandra Monard (diving), J en Murgone (backstroke, sprint free), Christine Murgone (distance free, sprint butterfly), and Lynne Mulkerrin (sprint free, sprint breaststroke) were all hard nosed competitors.

They ended the year will a 14- 13 record, but that mark wasn ' t really in- dicative of the quality and the talent of this ball club. Bridgewater led the MASCAC Con- ference in both team hitting (.334) and picthing (3.05) ERA. Outfielder John Kie- ly led the Bears list of sluggers with a school record (.495) batting average. He also hit 14 homeruns and knocked in 50 RBIs, another school record. After such an outstanding season, Kiely was selected to the first team All New England that played against the Division I All Stars at Fenway Park. He was alo an unanimous selection to the MASCAC All Conference team. In addition to his hitting prowness, Kiely also was the top pitcher for the Bears in both wins (5-1), strikeouts (51), and ERA (2.57). John wasn ' t the only one who had an exceptional season. Catcher Chris Mer- cadante (.357, 14 HRs, 39 RBIs) was a second team All New England selection, and freshman third basemen Dave Enos (.400, 6 HRs, 29 RBIs) was a third team All New England selection. Other key personnel in the lineup included Shawn Barry (IB), Ed Kangas (SS), Mike Mar- shall (OF), Glenn Flannigan (OF), and pitchers Bryan Nichols and Paul Duffy. An All New England selection, John Kiely was the Bear ' s big man both the mound and at the plate. Co-Captain Glenn Flannigan came thorugh with some clutch hits this year. 155 Softball Lady Bears made it to post season play for the fourth consecutive season as they qualified for the ECAC Championship Tourna- ment as the 1 seed. Overall, Bridge water compiled an 18-10 record and took second in the MASCAC conference. Coach DeeDee Enabenter began the season with a team that was composed primarily of freshmen and sophomores, including a rookie pitching staff. For- tunately, the ladies became veterans in a hurry, combining clutch hitting, solid team defense, and consistent pitching to carry them into the ECAC ' s. Third baseman Cathy Karl was the spark that made the team go this year. She led the team in both batting (.347) and RBIs (27). The sophmore sensation was selected to both MASCAC All Con- ference team as well as the NEISCA Coaches All Star team. Other standouts for the Lady Bears included co-captains Sheila Maloney and Donna Landry, along with JoAnn Runge, Cindy Mello, and Kathy McGough. The pitching duo of Judy Reid and Stephanie Ponte did a super job on the mound in only their first season at Bridgewater. In fact, they combined to no-hit Stonehill College twice in a key doubleheader late in the year.

Even though the Lady Bears had a 5-6 record, Coach Mary Lou Thimas ' charges won five of their last six matches to impress the tournament selection committee. The team evolved around their all- time leading scorer and tri-captain Sue Larson, who netted 52 of the team ' s 99 goals this season; an average of almost five goals per game. She was selected to the New England District All American squad to cap her oustanding career at Bridgewater. Also playing major roles for the Lady Bears were sweeper Jeanette Albee (tri- captain), Karen Frederico (tri-captain), Wendy Stoddard, and Andrea Ericksen. Kim Madden, in her first year as a goalkeeper, did a solid job between the pipes. Going into into the last game of the regular season against Plymouth State, they needed a win to make the ECACs. The ladies rose to the occasion and came away with a hard fought 10-8 decision. In the tournament, they went up against Tufts Univeristy who was then ranked 10 in th e nation. After a slow start, the Larson-led crew ended up on the short end of a 11-5 decision. All American Sue Larson could always be found around an opponent ' s net looking to score for the Lady Bears. A key player, Jeanette Albee keep the opposition from the Bridgewater goal. 158 1987 Women ' s Lacrosse Team.

Under the tutelage of coach Mike Storey, the twenty-two member squad outscored their opponents 37-10 during the season and never gave up more than two goals in any game. The season was highlighted by some outstanding games against MASCAC opponents Salem State (5-1), Fram- ingham State (2-0), and a narrow (1-0) loss to ECAC-bound Westfield State. Tracie Beale led the team in scoring with 12 goals, followed by Colleen Campbell (5), and Donna Mondeau (4). Senior fullback Laura Campagna was selected to play in the NEWISA Senior All Star game which consisted of players from Divisions I, II, and III. Because of the club ' s outstanding suc- cess over the past years, it was decided that the program would be given varsity status for the 1987 season. This was the overall goal of all the players to achieve this season, and their hard work and commitment paid off in a big way. The players congratulate each other as they make another goal.

The club finished the year with a 14-4-0 overall record. They captured first place in the New England Small College Water Polo Conference and third place at the New England Championships at Lewiston, Maine. The Bears are the founders of the new- ly formed Division III NESCWP Con- ference and host such teams as Bates College, Clark University, College of the Holy Cross, Trinity College, Wesleyan University, and Worcester Polytechnic Institute. Captains of this year ' s club were senior defenseman Michael Young and junior goalie Rich Faucher. The club average d 16 goals per game while allow- ing only 8. The scoring was led by Scott Goodrich (82 goals), Michael Young (58 goals), and Bryan King (42 goals). Goodrich set a club record with 12 goals against Trinity College while Young net- ted 10 against Clark. Goodrich, Young, Faucher, and Darryl Aviza were all picked as All Conference selections. Although there some individual ef- forts and many highlights to the season, it was the team play of all the members that insured success. Sharon Waleik, Bob Hoefer, Jay Deneault and Mike Richards all contributed to this style of play. The formation of the new conference has not only brought a positive winning attitude, formed new rivals, increased in- terest in the Water Polo Club, it has also allowed the teams at the same level to compete against one another.

Students participated on the Stu- dent Government Association to WBIM Radio to the Earth Sciences and Geography Club. When they joined a club or organization, they became a part of group united for a combined vision, and sought to make it a reality. Turn the pages, and see all organizations that made their visions into realities. Student Government Association created Controversy Changes hanges are always occurring and the 1986-87 Student Government Association cer- tainly had its share of changes. Last year, the SGA ratified a new con- sitution that separated the powers of the executive branch from the legislative branch by removing the Executive Board from the the Senate. The legislative branch was also restructured by the ad- dition of a twenty-five member House of Representatives. However, this year when the bicameral system was implemented, the change failed to produce positive results. There were various reasons for why the two house system did not work. The strongest reason was the loss of many members due to academic proba- tion. The loss crippled the legislative branch, therefore an emergency amend- ment was passed so that the House and the Senate was combined into one body, called the General Assembly. The executive branch was also af- fected by the loss. John Beaton had decided to resign from his position as President of the SGA at the beginning of the Spring semester. Erin McDermott, Vice President and Mike Volpone, At- torney General also left their offices. Elections were held to replace Beaton, McDermott, and Volpone. The offices of Vice President and Attorney General were won by Lisa Veilleux and Jacqui Gravel, respectively. In the final election for the Presidency, the competition was intense between Dan Darcy and Dilip DeSilva. It was a close race as Dan Darcy was declared the winner by five votes. Since it was a close margin, there was a recount. As a result, Dilip DeSilva was declared the winner with over twenty votes. Continued on page 170. Campaigning hard with his supporters, Dilip DeSilva was a candidate for SGA President to replace former President John Beaton. DeSilva became President, serving for only two and a half months. Having to make tough decisions was in store for the voters as they voted in the elections in February for the SGA President, Vice-President, and Attorney General. The election had one of the highest voter turnout for a mid-year election with over 750 voters. 168 Winning second prize in the Homecoming parade was the SGA ' s float depicting the Crossing of the Delaware.

The House at the beginning of the Spring semester was dissolved along with the Senate into a General Assembly. Running for the primaries in the spring elections for SGA President were Dan Darcy, Peggy Hayes, Joe Mucci. Dan Darcy won one of the two slots for the final election; Dilip DeSilva won the other slot. Student Government . Continued from page 168. However, the final election was believed to be invalid by Elections Direc- tor Dean Toppi and Attorney General Jacqui Gravel. The invalidity was con- firmed by Chief Justice Chris Clark and the Student Court Justices. The verdict was based on the fact that there was a 7% margin of error in the ballots. Another election was held for the Presidency. Dan Darcy asked to have his name removed from the ballot, and Dilip DeSilva ran and won unopposed. Thus, Peggy Hayes ended her month long term as Acting President and returned to her office as Executive Sercretary. With a new President and a re- jeuvented General Assembly, the SGA began to work on various projects. The members worked to revise the consititu- tion by re-establishing a one-house system and creating stricter election pro- cedures. The SGA began to work together as an unified force and strived for a more professional image. Peggy Hayes Unselfish consideration for my fellow students ...

The Campus Center Board of Gover- nors is comprised of 23 members who vork with the Director to recommend policies for the operation of the campus :enter and its programs. The member- hip of the Board reflects the composi- ion of the college community, students, : aculty, administrators, staff, alumni, and continuing education. Actions taken by the Board included the renovation of the Commuter Cafeteria, the purchase of artwork and chairs for the Bridgewater Dining Room, awarded the trophy for the most spirited Homecoming Float, and placed clubs and activity groups into suitable rooms located within the campus center. The Campus Center is part of the education program of the college. Through its various boards, committees, and staff, it provides a cultural, social, and recreational program aiming to make free time activity a cooperative fac- tor with study in education. Its goal is the development of persons and as well as intellects. As the living room or the hearth- stone of the college, the Campus Center provides many of the services, conve- niences, amentities the members of the college family needs in their daily life on campus and for getting to know and understand one another through infor- mal association outside the classroom. The Campus Center serves as a unify- ing force in the life of the college, cultivating enduring regard for and loyalty to the collge. The Board of Governors plays an important role in making all this happen. Peg Corbett 173 The whole gang turned out for the Monster Mash Dash, held on Halloween.

As the fall semester began, the school ' s weekly newspaper was pretty calm under the leadership of Editor in Chief Roger Spring and Manag- ing Editor Barbara Murphy. The entire staff, including editors, writers, photographers and typists, and secretary Pat Hogan, had everything under control. Because of the work by The Comment staff, many changes were made in and around campus. Lights were installed on the path leading to Burrill Avenue from the commuter parking lot after a story appeared in the first issue concerning the attack of a female student there. When free hour was changed by President In- delicate) to late Friday afternoons, The Comment fought to have it changed to a more reasonable time. The fountains around the Campus Center were cleaned after a commentary pointed out the con- ditions of them. And above all, the paper made the students, faculty, and ad- ministrators more aware of what was go- ing on around Bridgewater. Mi C Jhe Comment as they covered the issues, Had The Write Stuff Members of the editorial staff trav- elled of Washington, D.C. in early November for the national College Media Advisors Associated Collegiate Press convention. They learned much about the production of college newspapers, saw the sights, and even managed to return the rental van in one piece. After Roger Spring moved on to the real world, News Editor Brent Rossi was elected by the staff to become new Editor in Chief. He held the position for only one issue, but had a great time while he did, and vowed to to return one day as Editor. After Brent Rossi stepped down, Managing Editor Wildfred Bilodeau assumed the office of Editor In Chief, and after a short period, the staff decided to make it offical in an election. After taking the position, Bilodeau appointed Christine Howard, Managing Editor, John Beaton, News Editor; John Burns, Living Editor; Elizabeth Kelly, Copy Editor; and Lisa Hanson, Entertainment Editor. They joined Sports Editor F. Scott Longo, Photo Editor Michael Abusheery, and Business Manager Ann Marie Sliney, all of whom had been previously appointed by Rossi. It was at the beginning of the spring semester that the controversy began. Many people were shocked to see the first issue tell of major losses in the SGA ranks. Controversial issues kept on com- ing throughout the semester, as The Comment reported on stories such as Head Football Coach Peter Mazzaferro ' s claim that he was let go because of age discimination; the long-running SGA elections, which were declared invalid and held over again; the death of student Tracy Spinazola, Class of ' 90, in a hit and run accident; the stripping of The Lady Bears basketball team of its MASCAC title, and denial of that team ' s entry into the NCAA tournament because of questions concering the eligibility of one of its members, senior Fran Leeman. One of the year ' s biggest controversies centered around a letter to the editor written by a former Bridgewater student. The highly critical letter touched off a mass of letters, writ- ten in defense of the college. Through it all, the Comment had the write stuff , as it entered in its 60th year of publication. Louise Calandrella Every week, Editor Roger Spring puts in time to do production work, helping to ensure a high quality Comment every week. 177 The WBIM Mural on the wall of the third floor of the Campus Center greets visitors as they walk toward the offices and studio of Bridgewater ' s radio station.

Breaking Ground in Music WBIM Radio BIM (91.5 FM Stereo) is the non-commerical, educa- tional broadcasting station for Bridgewater State Col- lege. It is located on the third floor of the Adrian Rondileau Campus Center and is on the air daily from 9 a.m. to 12 midnight. Run by Bridgewater students who work in staff positions similar to those of U.S. major radio stations, WBIM is the station to listen to for what ' s happening on and off campus, to tune into for a live broadcast of home football and basket- ball games, and for the music. WBIM is known for its progressive music format, often playing hits and bands before they appear on the national charts. WBIM is indeed breaking ground for radio here at Bridgewater State College.

As it had been in the past years, the main focus of the year was to define its role in the Greek community and to allow the Greeks to get to know each other better. Each semester, the Greek Council held, in conjunction with the Amercian Red Cross, a blood drive. This event is traditionally sponsored by the Greek Council as well as is a good community service in a time of need as the blood banks are low in supply. Another event was informal softball games held Back to Education for the Future of our Children was the theme of Kappa Phi Omega ' s float in the Homecoming Parade, as the sisters and new pledges set up a mini-classroom complete with a teacher. periodically throughout the year, and was a quick and easy way for the council members and their sponsoring organiza- tions to get together and have some fun. The highlight of the year for the Council was the annual Greek Week. Held on April 21st to 26th, Greek Week provided olympic games for all the fraternities and sororities to compete; some events for points to win the Trophy and other events just for fun. The plans for the Greek Week were in the works since school began and was the payoff for the Council members. The members looked forward to the event since it accomplished the goal of togetherness the best. Ron Pettit appa Phi Omega is an organization composed of thir- ty five active young women, dedicated to their sorority, They promote unity within themselves, as they know this is what brings suc- cessful results from their endeavors. They perform many community services and fundraisers to promote the better- ment of society and to provide themselves with a feeling of accomplish- ment. Their sorority began in October of 1983, when five women decided that the campus needed a sorority to help promote a Greek community. At the time there were three fraternities, with no sororities. These young women, with help from the Theta Zeta Chapter of f f ua iha in IS ' ' si a ||Cl 4 la ea I 180 Sigma Chi, wrote to their grand consul, requesting assistance in creation of their rituals. Also, steps were followed to enhance their application as a sorority: a formal written application of recognition was sent ot the Dean of Student Services, a slate of officers was created in order to assume full responsibility for the con- duct of the organization, a group of at least ten members was formed, and finally a written consittuiton was created. The three purposes of Kappa Phi Omega are to encourage and promote a high degree of scholarship, to foster friendship in every way, and to provide meaningful, beneficial service to the community. Kappa Phi Omega feels that there are two words that could basically describe them, dedicated and involved. They are involved in many services, organiza- tions, and activities. They are very anx- ious to join a national sorority, a goal that they arrived closer to this year. A national sorority would provide a con- nection which would strengthen the group as well as the campus. Kappa Phi Omega Greek Council. Front Row: Dave Colby, Jerry Rymill, Mike Gibbons.

Alumni on the float were Ralph Plotke, Nancy Collins, Kathy Boyd. Togetherness is the key to Success Lifetime of Brotherhood ' that ' s what it says at the top of the fact sheet given to all new pledges. Immediately they are told that the national fraternity of Sigmna Chi was founded on June 28, 1855 by seven undergraduate students at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. Since then it has grown to become an interna- tional fraternity, with 197 active chapters accross the United States and Canada. It ranks fifth among fraternities in amount of active chapters, and second in the total number of initiates. Today there are over 150,000 living Sigma Chi brothers. The Theta Zeta Chapter was intalled at Bridgewater State College on April 23, 1983. The idea of bringing Sigma Chi to Bridgewater began when members of a local fraterneity, Pi Upsilon Pi, met some Sigma Chi brothers at Spring Break in Florida. They contacted the national headquarters in Evanston, Illinois, who sent representatives to Bridgewater to work with their prospective brothers. Within a year, Pi Upsilon Pi became Sigma Chi, the only national fraternity on campus. Since then, the Theta Zeta chapter has had considerable growth and involve- ment in campus activities. They run the Homecoming Bonfire, and have won the Homecoming float competition the past two years. Community services such as visits to the Shriners Burn Institute and the Bridgewater Nursing Home are now regular parts of the pledging program. Three of the last four Homecoming Kings have been Sigma Chis and there are Sigma Chis on almost every sports team, as Resident Assistants, in the Children ' s Developmental Clinic, and at the WBIM, the radio station. Sigma Chi involvement both in school and the chapter has earned them the Peterson Significant Chapter Award in each of the three years since they became a chapter here at Bridgewater. Rick Wallwork hi Pi Delta was founded in 1963 when ten students united and formed a constitution. It was then that they established the goals, attitudes, and values of Phi Pi Delta, promoting a basis for an everlasting bond. In 1978, due to a decreased member- ship, Phi Pi Delta became co-ed under the presidency of Jim Nosel, thus break- ing its fifteen year tradition. This year brought changes in the pledging procedures, social activities, and the overall philosophy. Deltans sponsored a float in the Homecoming Parade, held a Pinning Party, a Survival Game Hunt, and went to Medieval Manor for a dinner-party. With the assistance of President Al D ' Errico and Alumni President Richard Robinson, many lost traditions were reinstated as Phi Pi Delta prepared for their 25th anniversary in the fall of 1987.

As an Appellate Board member the student hear judicial appeals of students of cases from the Judicial Boards. The president of each hall is an ex-officio member of the Appellate Board. The primary activity was to organize and publish a phone directory of all par- ticipating residential students.

With her floormates, Shelley Nedzweckas enjoys her duties as Resident Assistant. She lives on Shea Fourth Floor. Helping the Shea Durgin residents live In Peace And Harmony ecoming a Resident Assistant is not an easy process. There is an intense competitive application process of written applications, group interviews and individual inter- views. After the process is done, Bill Drapeau, Staff Assistant in charge of the RAs, Maureen Healy and Amy Becker- man, both Head Residents, review the applications and interviews to finalize the RAs for next year. The week prior to the first day of school, the RAs receive their training in couseling, dealing with problem people and situations, programming activities for the floor, and being a referral source for campus facilities and services. During the school year, the RAs have offical on-duty hours when they can definitely be reached. They do not really have any off-duty hours, as if the residents need them, they have to be there for them. This year the RAs tried be more of a friend, so they could break down the party-breaker image. And by working together so closely, the RAs became a close-knit group. Being a RA has helped me grow a lot, an become more confident about myself. I know that it ' s a cliche, but it ' s very true, said Renee Mitiguy, Fifth Floor Shea Resident Assistant. Ron Pettit hea Durgin Judicial Board was created several years ago as a separate entity from the other Judicial Board that was created for Pope, Scott, Woodward Halls and the Student Apartments. This was done because of high number of students at the Hill. The Board hears and recommends sanctions in instances of alleged viola- tions of College policy in and or around the Shea Durgin Hall. Candidates have to have good academic and be in good disciplinary standing with the College in order to qualify to run for position on the Board. Ron Pettit 187 Shea Durgin Hall Executive Board.

Events such as the Hallo- ween, Valentine ' s Day, and Spring Break Dances have been successful with over 200 people attending each one, and had Paul Bonitto as the DJ. Other events included the pool tour- nament, and door painting contests for indivdual floors, and a special luncheon to recognize the cleaning staff. Their two major events included the Lip Sync Contest and Hill Week. The Lip Sync Contest held in conjunction with the Speak Break Dance, gave the $100 first prize to Joe Spence for Old Time Rock-n-Roll. Hill Week, held on the week of April 20th, was a celebration of Shea Durgin ' s 20th Birthday. Events in- cluded a burying a time capsule, a birth- day party night, the third Comedy Night featuring both amateur resident and pro- fessional comedians, Field Day with games such as tug-of-war and balloon fights. Ron Pettit cott Hall Executive Board tries to encourage dorm interest and particpation. Like the Shea Durgin Board, they hold events to offer the residents something different to do. A rap session The Good, The Bad, The Ugly, fishing trip in October, Mon- day Night Football raffle run by Neal Pokat and Bryan King, and a Christmas dance with Pope and Woodward Hall were some of the interesting and suc- cessful events held in the fall. In the spring, they held a Cookout for the residents and had a float in the Heritage Day Parade. Holding weekly meetings, the Board provides the members with valuable ex- perience in governing the dormitory and the creativity in developing new and in- teresting activities.

The Earth Science and Geography Club has been active at Bridgewater for over a decade, and their claim to fame is that they have sponsored numerous trips to many pa rts of the world, study tours for students seeking first hand experiences in dif- ferent evironments. In 1986, the club went to the Yucatan, Mexico in which 20 students of several different majors participated and en- joyed the challenges of travelling together. This year, the club travelled to Mexico City to see how the other half of Mexico lives. The club also had weekend trips to New York, and places in Connec- ticut and Maine; and there were also day trips, in such trip the members viewed the American Gemstone Jewelry Collection. Each semester the club, in coordina- tion with Earth Science and Geography Department, sponsored a lecture series of three guest speakers to for the entire college community. Lectures on apar- theid to the recent earthquake in Mexico have been hosted. In additon, they have had guest speakers during regular club meetings lecturing on various topics. John Lee, a senior and three year member of the club said that he had learned more on some of the club field trips than his regular classes. Donna Pa- quin, former club president and senior said that what she most enjoyed about being an officer in the club was the sense of comraderie with fellow members. It ' s like being in one big family. They ' ve taught me so much about being a leader, qualities that I will bring with me in the working world when I graduate im May. Although all the professors of the Earth Science and Geography Depart- ment help out in club affairs, Dr. Richard Enright has been the club advisor and the motivating force behind many of the club field trips. Under his direction, the members of the club have planned and carried out trips to Iceland, Mexico and Grand Canyon. Chris Sellstone, a graduating senior and a three year member of the club has this to say, People live and die, students come and go, but rocks live on.

Every year with its two major productions, Ensemble Theatre tries to bring quality theatre to the campus. Every fall, a musical is mounted for sometime in the middle of the semester. A normal sight to see is students study- ing sheet music and reading over the musical for which they are studying for. This year ' s fall musical was The Three Penny Opera . In the spring, Ensemble Theatre mounts a straight show. What that means is simply that a comedy such as Neil Simon ' s Plaza Suite or a dramatic piece such as Peter Schaeffer ' s Equus is presented. How the shows are picked is very in- teresting. The Executive Board of the Ensemble Theatre appoints students from each class year to the Reading Committtee for the selection of the plays. They meet with Faculty directors of the shows and receive their three choices in order of preference. The reading committee then reads all of the scripts, discusses their advantages and disadvantages and then meets again with the directors to arrive to a decision. Besides their two main productions, the Ensemble Theatre helps out with two other shows. The Children ' s Theatre, run by Dr. Richard J. Warye, has its auditions at the beginning of the spring semester. The performances run during Spring Break as the students play to almost packed houses of school children bused here from Taunton to Fall River. The other show is the Laboratory Theatre, which is a course open to Juniors and Seniors. Started by Dr. Richard J. Levine, the course is designed to put on shows of more intense acting and style pieces to give the theatre major a wider base of experience. This year ' s show was The Sam Shephard Plays . The Ensemble Theatre has tried dur- ing the past year to produce quality entertainment for Bridgewater and to help the actors refine their craft. MarkPimenta 193 Student Alumni Relations Council.

A major part of the organization ' s pur- pose was to do fundraisers, so each semester they planned their primary fundraising activity, a tuition raffle. The first one was in December, with a grand prize of one semester ' s in-state tuition. With only three weeks toi prepare, SARC forged ahead to mail let- ters to all the families of the students, and to sell tickets outside the Bookstore and within all the dorms. Through all the delays and confusion, SARC raised over $1,000 to donate to the Alumni An- nual Fund. BSC Closer Together SARC had another raffle in the spring, this time the grand prize was a full year ' s in-state tuition. President Jim Lam- pasona said, This raffle went a lot smoother than the first one, since we learned from our mistakes. They also sponsored the publicity for the Chorale Society ' s Christmas COncert by drawing and placing table cards in Tillinghast and Commuter Cafeterias. Members of the club participated on the Heritage Day Inaugural Day Committee. I think that, considering that we were new organzation, we accomplished a great deal, said Jim Lampasona, Presi- dent. He felt that due to the officers ' strong leadership and true pride in the college and with the dedicated members, SARC helped to make Bridgewater a more spirited community. Jim Lampasona ringing international and cultural awareness to Bridgewater is the International Club ' s main purpose, as well as to bridge the gap between the interna- tional students and American students by intergrating their cultures into the American cultures and by absorbing ideas and culture of America. The club undertook several activities and projects this year. The major event they put on in the fall was the Model United Nations. They collectd funds for hunger projects, put on International Beer Night in the Rathskeller and members of the club attended a con- ference for international students. For the spring semester they planned to go on a educational trip to Washington, D. C. during spring break, to send members to represent Bridgewater in the International Olym- pics, as well as hold their traditional and successful International Night.

Since then the program has grown under the direction of Dr. Tracy Baldrate, SCEC ' s advisor and the current organization ' s officers. In order to facilitate professional growth and development, SCEC spon- sored several programs and activities aimed at meeting this goal. One such program is the Give a Gift program at the Paul A. Dever State School in which gifts are either brought or donated and given to the residents of the school. SCEC also assisted with and partic- pated in the Massachusettts Federation of CEC Convention as well as the Na- tional CEC Convention, and is spon- sored in part by the Student Govern- ment Association. SCEC also invited several guest speakers to address topics as parent advocacy (Ms. Artie Higgins) and interviewing (Dr. Charles Elliot, Principal, Duxbury Schools). Janet Coffey ne of the many activities of the Psychology Club was a tour through the Bridgewater Maximum Correction In- stitute where students saw first-hand the everyday life of a convict. In conjunction with the trip was a showing of the movie A Titicut Follies ; a graphic movie about life at the Prison. Currently banned in Massachusetts, the movie is shown only to those interested in the human services field, and the Psychology Club was glad to make it available to the soon-to-be professionals.

One of the main purposes of the club is to provide the members a view of what is happening in business and bring guest speakers to inform the club on the latest business trends. SAMS had Lindy Bragg from El Toritos who spoke on restaurant management and liquor liability, Keith Powers from Burger King who spoke about operations manage- ment with his company and other related companies, Pitney Bowes spoke on careers in sales in their company, which deals in postage meters and re- cording devices and many other speakers. SAMS also participated in the annual open house, held in the fall for prospec- tive students and their parents. They set up a booth to show what the club could offer as a part of the management pro- gram at BSC. SAMS also participated in a new program called Industry Day, in April. The club also maintained a bulletin board in the Management Science Department, which was changed fre- quently as well as distributed weekly newsletters to keep the members of the club updated on what ' s going on with SAMS. SAMS was successful in bringing many diverse speakers to Bridgewater State College to broaden the horizon of the types of organizations and in- dustries that are open to the members when they graduate. As president Ch ristine Tammaro said, We hope that SAMS will continue to grow as the management field will in the next few years. Christine Tammaro merican Production and In- ventory Control Society (APICS) is also a new club on campus, started by Pro- fessor Englund. The goal of APICS is to help its members gain an understanding of how important pro- duction and inventory control is in the business society. 200 APICS is a local chapter that is af- filated with the New England APICS; it is through the South Shore Chapter that is accomplishes its main purpose. The club receives notices regarding monthly dinner meetings in which APICS send its members to these meetings that in- clude speakers and allows the students to meet businessmen so that they will be able to learn about the real business world. APICS held two 50 50 raffles as fundraisers each semester. Raising over $250 each time, the club pays for the member ' s fee for attending the dinner meetings. The club also helps its members gain certification in the area of production and inventory control. Although not required by the business world, this certification allows the cer- tified person gain promotion and in- creased salary opportunities. APICS allows its members to become closer to being a professional, by the very nature of its activites, said Christine Tammaro, club secretary.

Both Dance Corps and Karate Club are Kickin ' Up To Success nder the direction of Dr. Nancy Moses, the Dance Corps is group of dancers, both amateur and experienced, who want to learn more about dancing. For the first time, the Dance Corps held a fall dance concert entitled Salute to Broadway, allowing the members of the club to gain more performing ex- perience and to gain more exposure for the club. Also they held a raffle in the fall; grand prize was a VCR. Their winter dance concert raised over $200 in ticket sales. Dance Kaledeiscope, their spring concert, was held in April. In the fall, they participated in a Masters Class given by Sharon Dicrosta and brought in a dance residency given by Dance works. Another Masters Class and a guest choregrapher, bringing more dance knowledge their members, were planned for the spring semester. The president of the Dance Corps, Melissa Tarzopoulos, said this about the group, We hope to bring a greater awareness and appreciation for dance at Bridgewater State College. Colleen Tierney rimary focus of the Karate Club is to promote karate in the tradi- tional way as well as to develop the character of its participants. In order to do this, they hold practice three nights a week, learning the steps and maneuvers in the traditional manner of karate as well as host tournaments here at Bridgewater. In the fall, the club held a tournament and the results were: Both mens novice teams placed 2nd and 4th in sparring competition. The mens advance team placed 2nd in sparr- ing competition. The advanced Kata team placed 2nd, overall. The club is a member of the North American Karate Federation and the New England Collegiate Karate Conference. Ron Pettit 205 Over 200 students went on the Halloween Cruise, sponsored by the Class of ' 88, requiring the class officers to order more buses. The Class of 1988 and 1 989 Officers Created Special Times ike the Class of ' 87 Officers, the Class of 1988 Officers were without an advisor until this year. Ms. Maureen Healey became their advisor. This change came about because the of- ficers felt they need professional assistance and feedback. They sponsored the Holiday Ballon-a-grams, which they delivered over 300 balloons with messages of holiday cheer and love. Traditionally sponsored by the Junior Class, they held the Spring Candlelight Ball at the Boston Park Plaza Hotel. The Class of 1989 Officers asked to help organize the Ball, and the class of- ficers welcomed the offer. Working together, they helped to make it a special and magical evening to remember. Ron Pettit All Dressed Up and a place to go! To the Hallo- ween Cruise, that is. Waiting for the buses to take them to Boston Harbor are Elizabeth Hallal, Sylvie Camacho, Linda Egan. 206 t the end of the spring 1986 semester, there was a lack of interest from the class during election time. Only two posi- tions were filled, President by Christine Howard and Vice President by Susan Gentile. Enthusiasm for the class was back at the beginning of the school year, as elec- tions were held for class officers, and the once vacant positions were filled. The spirit of pride was revitalized by the team of class officers, working to be suc- cessful in their many events. Fundraising began the very first week of school year, greeting the Bridgewater students by selling Welcome Back Can- dy Kisses . Valentine ' s Day in the spring semster, Bridgewater students surprised their sweethearts with Valentine ' s Day Grams, enclosed red boxes with assort- ments of candies and heart warming messages. The big event for the class officers was working together with the Class of 1988 Officers, helping them to coordinate the 1987 Spring Ball. Working together the junior class officers made the night even more special. The class officers were able to grow with their experiences at Bridgewater, and involvement with the community. The officers tried to bring their class together, and felt that 1987 was a suc- cesful year. A lot of regrouping had taken place which united the officers as a tighter, working unit.

The Class of 1987 and 1990 Officers Created Excitement Explaining a point to Christine Hayes and Ron Pettit is Philip Conroy, Director of Alumni Rela- tions. Chris was doing door sales for the Homecoming Masquerade Ball. Phil Conroy was advisor to both the Senior Class Officers and the 2987 Visions Yearbook . lass of 1990 Officers were determined to help the class be the best class ever. The class officers ' goal was to create a strong unity between the students and the faculty, and to have a good time. Their first priority was to have a fundraiser, selling over 1200 boxes of M M ' s. Also in the fall, the officers organized a game of flag football be- tween the freshman class and the faculty administrators. The game was rained out and was rescheduled for later in the spring. In the winter, they had a Montreal ski weekend that wa s a big success. They held a formal dinner in the spring for the freshman class and their parents in the Campus Center Ballroom. As the College ' s 150th Class, the class officers got their class off to a strong start. Mark Bemis nn 208 his is our last year, and it ' s go- ing to the best year ever, declares Kevin Kindregan who was the President of the Class of 1987. He was a part of the team of the class officers whose main function was bring the class closer together in their last year at Bridgewater. In order to do this, they coordinated events such as the Homecoming Masquerade Ball, Jim Plunkett in the Rat, Air Band ' 87, the senior Countdown Parties as well as the traditional action packed Senior Week. The key to their success was finally defining their role as class officers, and finally getting an advisor. Phillip Conroy 72, Director of Alumni Relations, became advisor in the fall and Ellen Cut- tle ' 82, Alumni Relations Staff Assistant, replaced Mr. Conroy. Because their ad- visors were alumni and had experiences similar to the class officers ' , the advisors were able to help them make their events more successful. All the officers agree that by their ex- perience as student leaders they have learned how deal with people better. Working together to bring the class even closer together brought the class officers a great of pride and enjoyment; and has brought the Class of ' 87 special memories of Bridgewater.

As one senior remarked, I don ' t know where all the time went, and I can ' t believe graduation is only a month away. I remember in high school, that I waited forever for the day I ' d graduate from high school, and now, it only seems like yesterday. Whether it seems like yesterday or an eternity, the years spent here at Bridgewater were special ones, and unique to each senior. But, no matter what made each experience unique, the Class of ' 87 can take pride in the fact when people ask, they can say, I went to Bridgewater State College ... 211 Marie M.

However, he tragically died from a brutual mugging in New York City dur- ing the Fourth of July Weekend. Doug ' s mother gave me a poem, written for and delivered at Doug ' s funeral, saying that it meant a great deal to the family, and thought it would be nice to share it with Doug ' s Bridgewater Family. I think so, too. Ron, Editor. Heroes are not announced; they are not declared. Heroes are not made. A hero emerges from the textures of the life he weaves. This hero had an open smile that reached out from the core of his being and embraced us to his heart. He never held himself back, but gave us power to touch and delight him. This hero had big, big feet . . . not great for walking the commonly trod path. But these were the feet that carried us with him . . . elated and proud and exhilarated over the Finish Line at the Marathon. They were most comfortable in work-boots, hiking through God ' s country. They brought him to the mountaintop. This hero was always eager for a challenge, ever-prepared to surmount any obstacles. On my honor, I will do my best ... and you did, Doug, your very best. You showed us how to break through our limitations, how to use out potential, how to turn dreams into possibilities. This hero had the courage to seek the Truth. He did not speak in angel-tongues, but lived the deeds of a truly Christian spirit. Loving and trusting enough to be always sincere, He showed us, in his innocence, that we are all fragile and vulnerable. And sometimes, we turned away, not brave enough to face the truth we saw in him. But Doug, ever patient-compassionate kept faith in us, and just . . . kept loving. This hero had the generosity to honour all others. He was a loving son and brother, a devoted friend, and steadfast in his faith. He could express deep joy for all our accomplishments. He could see the best in everyone, knowing that we are created to share our Goodness , and only together will we rise in glory. A hero lives his life with purpose, and lifts us beyond ourselves, toward each other. Dearest Doug, you always headed directly for the toughest questions. And the answer rings purely, clearly, and steadily through all your days with us. Love — simply love . . . and Oh, how you could love! Abide in our hearts. We will welcome you and cherish you and learn from you That we all can be heroes too. 257 In Memoriam Tracy Spinazola We dedicate this page in Loving Memory to Tracy Spinazola February 3, 1987 Tracy, You were the one who made each day fun You were the one who gave us all your love You were the perfect friend And we all thought we ' d be together till the end But no matter what, you always cared A part of you has grown in us Which will remain always and never part You may be far in distance But you are so close in our hearts Friends are Friends Forever Love always, _ f • • .. . 4f 1 Tracy Spinazola was a member of the freshman class, Class of 1990, and was involved in many activities such as the Student Government Association. She died as a result of a hit and run accident, and her new Bridgewater Family felt her loss. Her friends asked if they could dedicate a page to her, and I felt that it would be appropriate to honor her memory in this way.

Special thanks to . . . Beth Sternbane, Steven Straceski, and Barbara Kowalczyk for being my best friends, and Mom and my brother, Brian for the love and sup- port over the years. Well, it ' s July 30 (one month, one day later than last year!), and I can ' t believe that the book is finally done. It seemed like that the layouts were sitting forever in my room, and it was never going to get done. But it did, by some sheer miracle. Now, I can live a normal life. My second year as Editor began with a vision (I guess I ' m going to beat the theme to death) of a totally dynamite yearbook that would transcend my first book. I ' m not going to tell you that it turned out the way I envisioned because it didn ' t. Things went wrong, and we had to make compromises because of a million and one reasons. But, for the most part, the final product turned out almost the way we wanted it, and I think that we have got a real good book. I hope that you will enjoy reading the 1987 Visions Yearbook as much as all of us enjoyed putting it together for you. This Yearbook is the result of help, suggestions, and ideas from many people; this book could have never been produced without them. And here I go again . . . thanks to Donna for doing all the copy writing (especially the features that were dreamed up on a Cape Cod beach) . . . Heidi for doing the senior section . . . Peggy for double- checking and finishing them up . . . everyone who wrote copy for the Organization section . . . the Senior Class Officers (Kevin, Chris, Connie and Denise) for sup- porting me . . . the SGA for the their wonderful generosity (after some discussion) in allocating the additional money that we desperately needed. Major thanks go to . . . Phil Conroy and Ellen Cuttle who are so incredible that I could not have made it all without them. They ' ve taught me so much about dealing with people, and how to get things done. They are such a godsend, words alone are not enough to thank these guys. Sorry, you ' re not getting a Mercedes, nor total devotion. Paul, Stan, and Mary Kay at Varden Studios who have helped to give us the best photography we have ever had (and for all the special rush jobs!). Henry Beckvold whose dedication to Yearbook for two years was sometimes only surpassed by myself, and for taking all those desperately needed photos. And Barbara Kowalczyk for putting up with me (again, for another year!) but real- ly, all in all, you pushed me and got me thinking (a little!) in your direction. Sometimes I thought it was a mistake (after our first fight, and the many more after that) to have a best friend on the staff (in an editorial position, no less), but you con- tributed so much, the book is yours as it is mine. What are friends for? I feel like I ' m writing an Oscar acceptance speech; if I ' ve forgotten anyone I ' m sure I ' m going to be hit by a bolt of lighting one of these days. So, if your name isn ' t anywhere on this page, I ' d like to say that your help is just as appreciated as those who are listed. Running out of space and time before that the wonderful postm an comes and takes this FINAL shipment of copy, so, farewell and see you next year. Yes, I ' m Editor again, for the third year in a row! Will I ever learn? God help me! Sincerely, Ronald B. Pettit Jr. Editor 272 Dancing up a storm at the Inaugural Ball are Editor Ron Petrit and Senior Section Editor Heidi Berry.

All the members of the Bridgewater Family all worked together to help achieve the goal being the best state college in the nation, initiated by Bridgewater ' s new President, Dr. Gerard In- delicate The goal of excellence encompassed every facet of the campus life, ranging from the starting of a campus beautification program, establishing new academic policies, to the renewed sense of spirit and pride, and re-estabishing the unique Bridgewater traditions. While Bridgewater still has more work to do before it achieves the goal of excellence, many accomplishments were made and Bridgewater moved closer to achieving the vision of success. So, in 1987, it was a year of visions becoming realities. 275 Celebrating the Heritage of BSC On Saturday, May 2, the sixth annual Heritage Day was held at Bridgewater State College as a part of a weekend that included Alumni Day and the Inaugural of President Indelicate The Heritage Day Committee planned an exciting agenda of events from the traditional Heritage Day Parade to the Pride in the Arts program to Esprit , the student inaugural celebration. The parade was the largest ex- travanganza ever, with marching bands, twenty floats, antique cars, carriages, and other attractions. A special feature attraction in this year was the appearance in the parade for the first time of the famous Clydesdale horses, thanks to Mr. Dennis Barry of Middleboro, who lent them for the parade. Ms. Ellen Cuttle of the Office of Alum- ni Relations and Development coor- dinated this year ' s parade, and she recruited a large and enthusiastic com- mittee to to help make the parade a big success. Continued on Page 279. SARC had an ace up their sleeve as they won a prize in the Heritage Day float competition. Linda Dutra, Carolyn Hearn, Michele Donnelly, Leisa Miceli, James Lampasona, Jane Hahn, Marci Skid- dell, Renee Mitiguy, John Loomis, Mike Feltman, John Foster, Diane McGuire, and Dawn Wray com- plete the deck of cards. Wowing them at the Inaugural Ball with their fan- cy footwork are Heidi Berry and F. Scott Longo. Mr. Longo was elected to be Student Trustee on the Board of Trustees for 1987-88. 276 MMMM Having a great time at the outdoor concert, a part of the Pride in the Arts program, in front of Boyden Hall are Steve McCasey, Jennifer Koenig, Frank Brown. Also having fun at the outdoor concert are Rob Sarnie and Kathy Glynn. Friendliness is a hallmark of the typical Bridgewater student. A whole lotta guys and, of course, a whole lotta of fun. CJ Potota, Jeff Seeley, Mike Gallagher, Jim Thomson, Mike Saparito, Kevin Sadowski, Barry Taggart, Matt Collins, and Bruce Long are enjoying themselves at the Heritage Day Parade. 277 It was during the Heritage Day Parade many saw the newly created sorority Lambda Gamma Chi. Showing the now famous Bridge water pride and spirit are Debbie Orlando, Emily LaValley (co- founder), Cath y Warren, Peggy Lehehan, Liz Ven- tura, Lauren Walsh, Tammy Hickey, and Cindy Holt. Striking an impressive pose are Jeff Selley, Andy Thomas and Todd Belham at the the outdoor con- cert which was a part of the Pride in the Arts pro- gram on Heritage Day. Celebrating Heritage Continued from Page 276. This will be a spectacular parade because so many people have con- tributed their time, energy, and ideas, she says. The first Heritage Day took place in the spring of 1982. Mr. William G. Mullen III, then the president of the Stu- dent Government Association, and Mr. Peter Hartel, formerly of the Office of Student Services, developed the idea and since then every following year the parade has grown in size, now making it the largest college parade in New England. An awards ceremony took place im- mediately after the parade with Wood- ward Hall winning first place, and then the Scott Hall Band performed on the steps of Boyden Hall. In the Horace Mann Auditorium, the college community was invited to watch the Pride in the Arts program with groups such as the BSC Dance Corps, the Ensemble Theatre, and the Theatre Alumni Group performing. That evening students were invited to The Commuter Cafeteria in the Campus help celebrate tomorrow ' s inaugural of Center was transformed into a glitzy President Indelicato by attending the nightclub, complete with giant video student inaugural celebration, Esprit , screens and the New York Skyline . Watching the floats of the Heritage Day Parade are Beth Ruppenthal, Michelle MacKinnon, Han- nah Cracower, and Kellie Hoar. Several hundred people turned out to watch the twenty-plus floats, marching bands, antigue cars, and the famous Clydesdale horses. Bearing it up with pride and spirit are the members of the Program Committee. As one of the most succesful groups on campus, the Program Committee puts on over 250 programs and events each year. 279 Looking their best, the student delegates, Diane Duarte, Cori Lyon, Heidi Ganss, and Patti Wheelock, await for the procession to start. They are all on the Progam Committee. .• ik Having a great time at Esprit , the student inaugural celebration, are Robert Zonfrelli, Kathy Ryan, Jane Hynn, Patti Wheelock, Heidi Ganss, and Jane Lemenanger. Surprisingly enough, many guests of the In- augural Ball upstairs gravitated to Esprit for the different atmosphere of a glitzy nightclub. 280 Pomp Glory With pride in our wonderful traditions, and great op- timism about the college ' s future, I assume the presidency full of confidence that together we will continue the building of a great institution. Amidst the pomp and glory, on Sun- day afternoon, May 3rd, the ninth presi- dent of Bridgewater State College was offically inducted into office by the Governor of the Commonwealth, Helping to present the Presidental robes and medallion to Dr. Gerard Indelicato is Mr. Vincent Magno, Chairman of the Board of Trustees. The medallion was designed and created by Professor John Heller of the Department of Art. Michael S. Dukakis. Dr. Gerard Indelicato, with his wife Paula and children Erica and Jason look- ing on, took the oath and became the ninth person in 147 year — and the third graduate of the college — to assume the presidency. The Inaugural Ceremony was the centerpiece to a weekend that included Alumni Day, the Heritage Day Parade, the Pride in the Arts program, the In- augural Ball, and Esprit , the student inaugural celebration, and after the Sun- day afternoon ceremony, a choral pro- gram performed by the Bridgewater State College Chorale Society and the Jubilate Chorale, Inc., of Brockton. « ■ J JtJIJ 5 4 .A ilt Wi . i ■ W £ m-S ' ' — - -w i HL ■ p S Lkl. 1 t J Prv i Lx r mJ : i _ j ftJfcflhftH MM I j Having just met the president and his wife in the receiving line, senior class president Kevin Kin- dregan and senior class vice-president Christine Hayes rum their attention to meeting the other guests for the Inaugural Ball. Leading the procession is Dr. George Weygand , college marshal, and leading the student delegates are Class of 1987 marshals, Bryan King and Heidi Berry. 281 At the Senior Dinner Dance, Kathy Ryan and Sharon Ferullo spend their last night as Seniors making it a night to remember. Final Visions As their years at Bridgewater came to an end, the Class of 1987 sought to make their last year the best year ever, both academically and socially. Trying to achieve their the best academically, they worked hard as they struggled with their major ' s most dif- ficult courses which came during senior year, while they double checked to make sure that they were fulfilling all the the GER and major requirements. With the friends they made over the past three years, they also tried to to make every moment special and filled with fun. The senior class officers helped tremendously by putting on events just for seniors , creating many memorable moments. The vision of finally achieving that long coveted degree came closer to reali- ty as the last few weeks of school rolled around. During the last weeks, attending events such as Heritage Day and the In- augural, the Spring Ball, the Senior Week activities including the Senior Din- ner Dance, and, of course, Graduation provided the graduating seniors with their final visions of Bridgewater State College. At Convocation, senior Leisa Miceli smiles as she envisions the exciting year ahead. Leisa was vice- president of membership of SARC. Awaiting the big moment, Lucy Hannouche remembers all the special times that she has had over the years at Bridgewater. She earned a degree in Communication Arts Sciences. 282 Many graduating seniors write messages on the mortarboard to tell the audience their feelings on graduation. This message is especially appropriate, because after graduation, finding that first real job can be difficult. Enjoying the festivities at the Senior Dinner Dance, are Betty Mcintosh, Gary Carmarillo, Lisa Duval, Yoshitaka Ando, Christine Hayes, Carla Vittozi, Pamela Hall and two friends. The Senior Dinner Dance is the most traditional event of Senior Week, held the night before graduation. 283 A Home Away from Home Since over 25% of its students live on campus, Bridgewater has made it a commitment to make residence halls much more than just a place to live while going to school. They believe getting a college education here includes not only classroom learn- ing, but becoming a part of a community. Being one of the first public colleges to build residence halls, as well as construc- ting two new dormitories for completion and occupancy for the fall of 1989 reflect that commitment. There are also administration and staff members committed to making the dorms a home away from home. There are the Head Residents, Resident Assistants, and Graduate Assistants in every dorm to help make the residental experience a positive one. The Executive Boards of each dorm program events to bring excitment to the dorms. Living on campus twenty-four a days while eating, sleeping, going to classes, studying all provide a total immersion into a college community, a college com- munity known as Bridgewater Family that cares and makes the living on cam- pus a special experience. And, that is also another reality of the Bridgewater experience. Living at the Apartments provides a much more independent experience, with almost every one having their own room and sharing the kitchen and the living room. Shown are Andrea Habe, Lisa Lima, Sara Marciniec, amd Jane Lemenager. 284 Named for Sara Elizabeth Woodward, Woodward Hall is the oldest dormitory on campus, housing over 260 women. Living at Pope Hall, Jane Campbell, Renee Brunelle, and Beth White join in one of the many activities that the Executive Board held during the year. Renee was elected in late spring to be the Board ' s president for 1987-88. Scott Hall, named for former president Zenos Scott, houses over 140 men and women. It was Bridgewater ' s first male dormitory, and recently went co-ed, introducing women to the former all- male dorm. 285 All Time High Pride and spirit at Bridgewater State College was at an all time high in 1987. The renewed sense of pride and spirit began with the arrival of the new president, Dr. Gerard Indelicate Speaking of pride and tradition con- stantly, and not settling for less, he in- spired many members of the Bridgewater Family to become more positive and spirited about the college. Serving as a catalyst, Dr. Indelicate encouraged other students and as well as organizations to take matters into their own hands. So, organizations like SARC and com- mittees such as the Heritage Day and Homecoming committees sought to in- crease pride and spirit through their ac- tivities and programs. Even the classes got into the act as a public relations class created Spirit Day . Speaking at the Inauguration, Senior Class President Kevin Kindregan spoke of the renewed sense of pride and en- thusiasm on campus. The Bridgewater Spirit is contagious around the campus, he said. On roller skates, Rob Langford skates around, of- fering ballons during the first annual Spirit Day. Over 350 people turned out for the event put on by a public relation class as their class project. As a part of SARC, Student Alumni Relations Council, Caroyln Hearn, Michele Donnelly, and Krysta Koppenal work to acheiving the group ' s main goal which is to instill pride and spirit in Bridgewater State College. At the Homecoming Football Game, the fans show the most spirit in years by roaring loudly, do- ing cheers, and of course, the Wave. Backed by the fans ' support, the Football team went on to win the game against Worcester State. 286 287 Y isions turned into realities in 1987 as every member of the Bridgewater Family sought to achieve the goal of being the best . As their goals ranged from the campus wide goal of being the best state college in the nation to personal academic or work goals, members of the Bridgewater Family dedicated themselves to the challenge to achieving those goals. As the Bridgewater Family achieved their goals, the year of visions became a year of realities. Springtime arrives onces again to the Quad and the entire Bridgewater State College campus, providing a beautiful setting for learning as well as socializing. The breathtaking campus scenery is one of Bridgewater ' s best assets, reflecting the college ' s almost 150 years. 288
