From that time on, he is caught up in the buzzing atmosphere of complex courses, humming motors, hurrying students, and is kept busy as any bee. This is one of the reasons that the Citadel staff chose the ‘‘Hornet’s Nest’’ as the theme for the 1950 publication of the Citadel. Even the huge fortress-like building itself, which houses State Tech, assumes the air of a hornet’s nest. State Tech’s colors, black and gold, also belong to that ever- active insect. Our theme is apparent in the social life of the State Techer, when our ‘‘Queen’’ is chosen to reign at the greatest social, ‘‘The Queen of Hearts Ball’’. In the field of sports, so important in our college life, the ‘‘Hornet’s Nest’’ is again suggestive, for our basketball team, officially dubbed the ‘‘Hornets’’, does in- deed resemble its namesake, as it streaks down the court stinging to defeat almost all opponents. The baseball team too has developed a sting. The State Techer himself may also be likened to the hornet, for with the courage and tenacity of his namesake, he has clung to the slide rule and typewriter to become a member of the class of ’50,the second class of graduates. It is for this class that the Citadel staff has endeavored, with the publication of this book, to retain memories of friends and events in the Hornet’s Nest. The class of 750 will buzz no more through the halls of State Tech, for like the hornet who migrates from the mother nest to build another, they too will buzz out to make a beeline for their own new nest. DEDICATION DAVID E. MEADE Registrar The Registrar is an integral part of any successful college, for he has the re- sponsibility of keeping all permanent records pertaining to the college. As a student’s future often depends on the complete and accurate records of his past work, much of our progress is dependent upon this one man. State Tech has been fortunate in having for its Registrar, Mr. David E. Meade, a man well qualified for this important position. Mr. Meade attended N.Y. State College for Teachers at Albany, Hobart College at Geneva, New York University, and received his B.S. degree from State Teachers College at Oswego. He received his tecnnical experience working in the electrical departments of three industrial concerns and his academic experience teaching in high schools for twelve years. Prior to and during the war, he worked as supervisor of industrial and technical education in the State Education Department. At State Tech, the term Registrar embodies more than the maintenance of records. Mr. Meade is responsible for student recruitment which entails a great deal of counseling and some traveling. He has complete charge of all matters pertaining to the Veterans Administration. He is director of the extension school and teaches Teacher Training on an extra-curricular basis. A member of the publicity commit- tee, he spends many hours on pamphlets to acquaint future students with the program at State Tech. Mr. Meade is a ‘‘behind-the-scenes’’ worker, for he has little actual personal contact with the students after admission. However, the students realize the enormity of his duties, and in appreciation of the excellent organization and maintenance of the Registrar’s Department, the graduating class of 1950 sincerely dedicates this second volume of ‘‘The Citadel’’ to Mr. David E. Meade. PAUL F. TITCHENER LAWRENCE L.

The- social season opened on September 15th with a Get-Acquainted Party in honor of the freshmen. This served as an introduction to college life and was the beginning of many new friendships. October 10th marked the organization of the new Junior Varsity Cheerleading Squad. In previous years, the Varsity Cheerleading Squad reigned supreme, but the Junior Hornets’ progress demonstrated that they too were worthy of a cheerleading squad. October also included a Halloween Party on the 27th, and student participation in the county-wide Diabetic Drive. All the laboratory examinations for this event were con- ducted at State Tech. November breezed in with the organization of the Wrestling team and a dance, the annual Turkey Trot, held in the gym preceding the Thanksgiving festivities. December proved true to the spirit of giving. The Social Committee gave a Christmas Dance, the col- lege gave a Christmas vacation to the students, and several of the students gave some of their treasured blood to the Broome County Blood Bank which came to the college and set up their equipment in one of the classrooms. Dad’s Day, a newly added annual affair, was held on January 14th. The entertainment included several selections by the Dance Band and Glee Club, a tour of the college, a buffet supper, a wrestling exhibit, a basketball game, anda dance. January saw the defeat of Triple Cities College by the Hornets at the annual Polio Benefit basketball game which gave the Hornets the first round on a trophy donated by IBM. The popular Queen of Heart’s Ball, the scene of the crowning of a new Queen, Miss Rita Duffy, was held on February 10th. After the awarding of flowers to the five contestants, the Queen Bee and her attendants led the Grand March. Dominated by basketball honors, March marked the debut of State Tech into the field of television with the appearance of Coach Baldwin and four Hornets on a sport’s program to demonstrate some of State Tech’s powerful strategy. This month, for the first time in three years, the Hornets broke an old jinx and defeated Triple Cities College with a record of three wins and one loss. On March 9th, 10th, and 11th, State Tech was host for the annual NYS Institute Basketball Tourney. Mother’s Day was celebrated at State Tech on May 13th with a planned program of a baseball game, a buffet supper, entertainment, and a dance. This affair was well attended and a tribute to the mothers who could not get anything done because of their offspring’s ‘‘homework’’. The ’50 Hornets have buzzed through a busy social season and now buzz away with a fond ‘‘Farewell’’ 28 een cay Cn eecensenoeene™ eel - a owSS i oil anion MEMORIES DECI HURS NATIONS 25° IR UNIFORAS = T see —_ oS ie —— om) Op. a r tie ae, Li =) ae CY) SENIOR NOTABLES Joke A my Naturet most Likely to Succeed Bes Natuxen Most Popu Par Most FecRle mit Si on xcwnt gr CLYDE E.

Orinik Bottom Row Ore Zicanr A hard-working and fun-loving group is the class of Senior Chems. Since entering State Tech two years ago, they have progressed from a group of ill-at- ease strangers to the closely-knit group they are today. Although their schedule has included long hours of school and much outside study, they have always taken an active part in the college’s sports’ program, entering teams in bowling, basketball, softball and volleyball intramurals. In their first year, they captured the intramural basketball championship, but in their second year, their sports’ activity was weakened due to the fact that the two sec- tions were seldom in school at the same time. They have not, however, limited their participation to sports, but are also rep- resented on the staffs of Tech Talk, the student newpaper, and the Citadel, the yearbook, and in Mu Alpha Sigma, The American Chemical Society, and the Glee Club. Members of the class have held offices in the Student Council, including those of Secretary and Bookkeeper, A member served on the Social Committee for two years. In addition to becoming chemists, they have also had to learn to be electricians, mechanics, typists, and all -around handymen (and women) in order to complete their experiments. Their education has included not only the theory behind problems, but also how to attack them, how to improvise equipment when none is available, and how to use their own ingenuity in determining methods of solving them. They have learned to depend upon themselves-a lesson no textbook could teach. By working together on experiments and problems, they have discovered how much can be accomplished by a spirit of co-operation, and this knowledge will help them become better citizens upon their departure from State Tech.

Wright In September of 1948, a group of young men met and formed the Electrical Technology Class of 1950. Reserved and rather quiet at first, they soon became welded into a solid group. Taking an interest in State Tech’s student government, sports, and student activities, they demonstrated their strong organization. Three of the four Student Council presidents and two of the four vice-presidents were electrical students. The class vice-president was chosen from the electrical section. The chief playmaker and a co-captain of the varsity basketball team was an electrical student, as was one of the varsity baseball pitchers. Prominent in all the intramurals, the electricals offered stiff competition. Having participated in State Tech’s activities for two years, the Electrical Technology Class of 1950 leave to apply their arts and sciences tothe industrial world. They leave an enviable record behind them. 38 CLASS OF ‘51 ELECTRICALS ELECTRICAL SECTION A - 1-2 Front Row - David Dopp, Lawrence King, Ignatius DiBello, Walter Black, Julian Close, William Knapp, Pierre Greene.

During their two years at State Tech, the Mechanical Technology class have added much to the advancement of the college. Although the students devoted many hours to slide-rule procedures, they took time out to participate in extra-curricular activities. Several students of the mechanical class were active members of the Southern Tier Technical Society. Two were officers of the graduating class, the president and the treasurer, and two were members of the State Tech Dance Band. In the field of sports, the mechanicals have added their bit. Two have contri- buted to the success of the bowling team. One was a member of the conference- winning varsity basketball team, and three were members of the junior varsity. As for baseball, the class contribution was two. In intramural sports, they have participated in basketball, volley ball, and soft ball. The Mechanical Technology class graduates with a fine record both in scholar- ship and student activities. 42 CLASS OF ‘51 MECHANICALS Left to Right Row 1 - Arthur Banfield, Edward Heineck, Frank Delanoy, Boyd Frost, Eugene Burns, Edgar Hymes.

As the modern automo- bile becomes more complicated so does the problem of adequate diagnosing and servicing. A need has developed for responsible personnel to perform these duties, and the Automotive Technology course is de- signed to train men to fill these technical positions. Recognizing the increasing need of automobile diagnosticians in the expanding automobile industry, State Tech contacted the education department of the General Motors Corporation as to the possibilities of such a course. The response from General Motors was most enthusiastic. Plans were formulated for a National Advisory Committee to assist in the planning of the program. Representatives from General Motors, Chrysler, Ford, Sun-Electric, and Delco-Remy served on the committee. During the summer of 1949, plans for the program were finally completed, and the first class was organized in September. AS no space was available within the walls of State Tech for the placement of the new equipment for this course, an annex was opened across the street to house the Automotive Laboratory. The Automotive Technology course is basicallya technical one emphasizing the fundamentals of chemis- try, lubrication, hydraulics, electricity, and the internal combustion engine, together with special applica- tions of the fundamental sciences to the operation and maintenance of the automobile. Social sciences and business courses are also taught in order to familiarize the student with the business management and sales phases of the business. The first year is set aside for the teaching of basic technical subjects. The second year is devoted to the application of the basic technical subjects to the automobile. Special equipment is required for this course, and State Tech was fortunate in obtaining the necessary material. The laboratory boasts of a distributor tester, a generator and regulator tester, and an engine diagnostic machine. The pride and joy of the class is a co-operative fuel research engine (CFR) which is used for octane rating and anti-knock qualities of fuels. This engine can be set up for both diesel and gaso- line engine operation. The graduates of this course will fill the gap that exists between the automobile mechanic and the auto- mobile engineer. They will serve as diagnosticians, service technicians and supervisers, and service station managers and owners. State Tech is indeed proud of the Automotive Technology course as it is the first of its kind in the United States, excluding the courses taught within the automobile industries. The first class will graduate in 1951 with the proud knowledge of being a pioneer group. 44 CLASS OF ‘51 AUTOMOTIVES SECTION A Row 1 (left to right) Richard Jones, Richard Lowe, Kenneth Dar- vey, Alan Libglid, Robert Lantz, Sherman Decker, John Lawlor.

Kalbaugh Bottom Mary G. Kushner Although they spent much time buzzing around with syringes and needles, the Medical Office Assistant class also bestowed a great deal of their energy on student extra-curricular activities. They played a major part in the editing of this Citadel serving on various staffs and holding the offices of Editor-in-Chief, Circulation Editor, Literary Editor, and Business Manager. Several members spent their free time in contributing to Tech Talk. M.O. students held the offices of treasurer and bookkeeper of the Student Council and the office of class historian. An M.O. planned the college’s social affairs by serv- ing as chairman of the Social Committee. Other members were active in the Camera Club and Glee Club. A peppy, little M.O. captained the Junior Varsity Cheerleading Squad through a victorious season. Displaying their professional spirit and community interest, the M.O. class participated in the county- wide Diabetic Drive performing 1694 urinalysis examinations for sugar detection, disclosing 190 positive results. The Medical Office Assistant class demonstrated their capability not only in the techniques of their class work but also in the extra-curricular activities of State Tech. They leave to apply this ability to the medical profession. The Queen Bee (the Queen of Hearts) waS a member of the ever-active Technical Office Assistant course. The class, composed of male and female students, had representatives in almost every activity at the college. They served on the staffs of the Citadel and Tech Talk, the editor of Tech Talk being a T.O. The Hornet, buzzing through the pages of this book, is a creation of a T.O. who provided a great deal of the art work for the college. In sport’s activities, the male students of this class starred on the varsity baseball and basketball teams, and the female students starred in and captained the Varsity Cheerleading Squad. Two other positions held by these active students were the senior class treasurer and secretary of the Student Council. A T.O. girl was sent, as one of two students representative of Binghamton State Tech, to the Buffalo Symposium on the modern university. Several members of this class were active in Mu Alpha Sigma, Camera Club, Glee Club, and the Social Committee. The Technical Office Assistant class graduate with ambitious plans of transferring their spirited activities to the business world. 48 CLASS OF ‘51 MEDICAL OFFICE ASSISTANTS First Row - Kay Proper, Helen Myers, Shirley Miner, Mildred Fore- man, Jean Hastings, Myra J.Gage, Mary Ann Hudy, Elizabeth Chapman.

During the class hours of the day and two evenings a week, a study-room atmosphere prevails with many technical books and magazines for ready reference. The friendly, efficient librarian, Miss Foley, helps the students with their various problems by guiding them to the technical or general subject books that fill their needs. During the noon-hour, the library changes into an informal gathering place with chattering students rushing in to read the newspapers and the latest popular magazines. Whether for work or for play, the friendly atmosphere makes the library one of the most popular spots in State Tech. OFFICE STAFF Left to Right.... Mrs. Minnie Bright, Mrs Jane Ulrich, Mrs. Arlene Zicari, Car- oline Wynnyk, Mrs. Jeanne Edson, The success ofa new school depends largely on the efficient management of the office staff. A great deal of credit should be given tothe office staff of State Tech as they have the responsi- bility of keeping track of State Tech’s approximately three hundred students, while in school, while out on their co-operative working period, and after graduation. The staff issues the Students’ grades, prepares the Directors’ List, welcomes new students, maintains all records accurately, and regulates the financial structure of the college under the direction of the Bursar, State Tech students are indebted to our efficient office staff for their fine work.

STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council is the very bulwark of our entire school life. The elected officers, representatives, and committee chairmen regulate all student activities and facilitate a congenial relationship between the students and faculty. Elections are held twice a year with officers serving six months, at three-month intervals. This is done so that the officers and representatives serve while they are in school and not during co-operative work periods. The committee chairmen serve the full year. One of the important functions of the Student Council is the planning of the budget which is done at the first semester of the school year. Each club, committee, or activity is allotted a certain per cent of the budget for new equipment, maintenance, and operating expenses. All material purchased from this budget becomes the property of the Student Council. The Student Council has made excellent progress and is a credit to both the students and State Tech. em omnes Brae ee Student Council Officers (2nd 4th Term) First Row: Patricia Mayhood, Robert Reid, Betty Downey.

STATE TECH ACTIVITIES The AMERICAN INSTITUTE of ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS has a large membership of electrical students. The students belong to the Student Section, Binghamton Area Sub-Section of the Ithaca Section. Meetings are held once a month, at which time, discussions are led by guest speakers from the electrical field. Many of the technical students are members of the student section of the SOUTHERN TIER TECHNICAL SOCIETY. Through this organization, the student is able to attend lectures and programs which help him understand the demands of industry. One of the outstanding benefits of belonging to this organization is the students’ contact with professional men in their field. The student often gets information as to future employment, as well as obtaining current technical information. Many of the chemical students have become members of the Student Affiliate of the Bing- hamton Section of the AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY, which extends membership privileges to all college chemistry students. The students are encouraged to attend the lectures by fam- ous scientists, as well as the social gatherings held by this section. The publication ‘‘Pipette’’ is received by the student members. The ORCHESTRA, under the direction of Tony Callea, adds to the pleasures of the State Tech students. It is to this group the students owe the chance to spend many happy hours “dancing the whole night through’’, for it has provided the music for nearly all of the social affairs held at State Tech during the year. In March, Mr. Porter, an accomplished musician, became the director of our GLEE CLUB. The club has been active, performing at the Christmas Dance, Dad’s Day, and Mother’s Day, as well as at several student assemblies. New choir robes add much toward making this an outstanding group. MU ALPHA SIGMA, or the music appreciation club, meets to learn about and listen to the music of great composers. This club’s popularity is reflected by the number of students found relaxing to the music of Tchaikovski, Victor Herbert, and other composers. The credit for the well organized Mu Alpha Sigma belongs to the devotees of classical music. Our CAMERA CLUB, which this year adopted the name of ‘‘Shutterbugs’’, is one of our active organizations. Under the watchful eyes of two faculty advisers, much has been accom- plished. The new darkroom is the pride of the club; for after a year of manual labor, ham- mers, Saws, and paint brushes have been put away; and the members have settled down to learning the art of photography in a strictly homemade but a well-equipped, well-organized darkroom. Every first Wednesday of the month, the members of the STUDENTS’ WIVES ASSOCIATION have their monthly ‘‘get together’’. This group is made up of the wives of our students, and our married female students. The purpose of this organization is to provide a social gathering where the members may relax and talk over the problems of the day. Approximately fifteen of State Tech’s students are taking wings. One day a week the FLY- ING CLUB meets for instruction in the theory of flying and each Saturday they are given actual flying experience. The FLYING CLUB was started in the latter part of March with a first-year Electrical as instructor. It is hoped that the interest and co-operation will continue to grow. 3 LIST OF ALL FRESHMEN: Name and Division Acquaviva, Stella Angel, Charles Bailey, Clifton Banfield, Arthur Battaglini, John Beswick, C.
