Students are encouraged to accept the challenge to serve society and exemplify the highest Christian ethic. This Christian heritage emphasizes the wholeness of human life, the interrelatedness of knowl- edge, and the entire Centenary family pride. Centenary is a Methodist affiliated Institution. Brown Chapel symbolizes the 143-year relationship of the College and the Methodist Church.

Dr. Barrie Richardson, the new Dean of the School of Business speaks at a Convoca- tion. Opening • 7 A Search For Excellence We aspire to have one of the best small college programs in business in the United States by the year 1988. that is the thesis statement of A Search for Excellence, Dean Barrie Richardson ' s plan for revitalizing the Centenary College School of Business. There are several goals contained within the mission statement of A Search for Excellence. The plan ' s chief goal will be to upgrade the quality of the School of Business ' s undergraduate and graduate programs. Other goals include making Centenary graduates more sought after by employers and graduate schools, attracting the brightest high school students by creating a more chal- lenging undergraduate business program, and to earn a reputation for the scholarly and professional competence of the business faculty. A Search for Excellence acknowledges the fact that good grades and success in the business world are not necessarily related. However, it also takes into account the fact that a college, such as Centenary, provides an excellent environment for the development of future business leaders. To achieve the goals outlines, A Search for Excellence will lead to numer- ous changes in business, economics, and accounting curriculums. The business department will be more rigorous and challenging, with students required to demonstrate high levels of proficiency in communication skills, quantitative analysis, economics, and core courses in management, finance, and marketing. Students in the business department will also have the opportunity to apply classroom concepts to the real world, through internships, unpaid staff assis- tantships in local businesses, and case studies of local businesses. Arrangements will also be made for students to study for a semester in Washington, D.C., New York City, Dallas, Chicago or Atlanta. Centenary ' s economics and accounting major programs will also undergo changes as part of A Search for Excellence. Economics will come into its own as a major program, which will be completed by only a small number of the students who begin it. Students studying accounting will, in the future, be required to earn a B or better average in introductory courses if they wish to pursue an accounting major. It is the goal of A Search for Excellence, in regard to accounting, to have one of the highest pass completion rates on the C.P.A. exam in Louisiana. A Search for Excellence will lead to definite change in Centenary ' s M.B.A. program. There are currently several models for the program under consider- ation by the faculty and administration. There is, however, the distinct possi- bility that in 1988, Centenary will no longer have an M.B.A. program. Accord- ing to A Search for Excellence, if Centenary maintains a graduate program in business, it will be distinctive, while also suited for Centenary ' s resources. An idea, new to Centenary College, to come out of A Search for Excellence is the Centenary Management Scholar program. The program will involve a select group of individuals, identified at the end of their sophomore year, who have met high levels of performance. Students in the program will be involved in special seminars each semester and trips to financial and business centers. The program will also include honor scholarships given to program members and special ass istance in seeking admission to the country ' s best M.B.A. pro- grams. While the goals of A Search for Excellence are ambitious, they are, in the minds of the faculty and administration, obtainable. And in the words of A Search for Excellence, If we come close we will have one of the most outstanding programs in the country. by CLAY ROBERTSON Dr. Barry Richardson, Dean of Centenary ' s School of Business. Dr. Harold Christensen, Director of Economics Education Center. Magale Library is the academic heart of the campus. V Mrs. Barbara Regan is a professor of Business. Mr. Jim Reburn, accounting professor, has been at Centenary for two years. A Magale Library has about 145,000 volumes and about 800 current maga- zines, as well as local, area, and na- tional newspapers. The collection is housed on two floors according to the Dewey Decimal System. Current magazines, the microform room, the reference section, and music listening rooms are on the first floor. On the second floor there is a lounge area and group study rooms. There is one main card catalogue with authors, titles, and subjects in alphabetical order ac- cording to subject. The last five draw- ers of the catalogue, following Z ' s contain cards for the record collec- tion. Most books may be checked out for a period of two weeks. The due date is always on a Thursday and can be renewed by the telephone. The fine is 10 cents per day for overdue books. Your Centenary I.D. is also your library card, so it is helpful to have it with you at all times. Books for which there is a heavy demand are kept on reserve behind the circula- tion desk. Most of these books must be used in the library. Others circulated from 1-7 days and are nonrenewable. The library provides a copy machine for student use at 10 cents per copy. Ask for the key to the copy machine at the circulation desk. Any of the library staff will be glad to help you if you need help. Don ' t be shy about asking. Members listed as director Will Andress gives details of the Mickel Hall fire which destroyed the choir loft on the first day of school. So How Was China? The Centenary Choir is one of the most active collegiate groups in the country. In all, the choir gives 75 concerts a year, includ- ing at least one tour in a foreign country. In 1980, the group traveled as singing ambassadors of good will on a concert tour of Russia and Poland. In 1982 the choir traveled to Europe with a command performance for the President of Switzerland during which officials representing all of NATO were present. The 1983 tour was a successful visit to China. While in China, members .... dressed up a bit!

Below us the ields lay in neat squares around the commune uildings. The thought I ' m entering a Communist ountry and a host of associated words — red hreat, Cold War, Communist plot, invasion — rilled into me since birth raced through my mind. wondered if we would be welcome. Any fear for our safety or anxiety concerning ur welcome in China proved to be groundless. It eems that China ' s population is one billion warm, enerous, smiling people. Everywhere we went the hinese appeared as curious about and eager to  arn about us as we were them. When verbal com- lunication was impossible due to the language arrier, as it was in most instances, the citizens of ur host country employed waves, bows, and — lways — big smiles to express their sentiments award Westerners. I received a demonstration of the Chinese peo- le ' s kindness and friendliness one afternoon in ian. Needing a battery for my camera, I took dvantage of an hour of free-time before dinner to xplore the area round the hotel and to search for a amera shop. In each of the four Chinese cities we visited, the hoir drew crowds of Orientals anxious to observe )ccidentals; however, Sian evidently saw even swer Westerners than the other three cities, and a ill, fair-skinned red-headed female found herself unrounded every time she stopped by groups of wenty or more Chinese eager to look upon such a trange visage and to listen to such strange sounds those of English). After discovering through a isplay of my camera and its battery that the first hop I ventured into did not sell the necessary :em, I made my way through the crowd of onlook- rs and stood on the sidewalk looking for another hop. As I was about to cross the street, a man in his tid-thirties who had witnessed my demonstration i the shop approached me at the same time that a irl of twenty or so pulled up next to me on her icycle. The two conversed a moment, and then be girl smiled at me and said in rather good Eng- ish, Weil help you find a battery. During the late afternoon it had begun to drizzle ain. While most people were making their way ome after the day ' s work, these two led me from shop to shop. If a likely-looking shop had already closed, the man and girl would knock on a side door and the three of us would go behind the shop to the living quarters where they would explain what we were searching for. After half an hour, I explained that I was late for dinner and thanked them both for their help. The girl walked be back to the hotel, all the while practicing for an upcoming American history exam. George Washington was your first presi- dent, yes? And Martin Luther King was a very great man? Yes, and there are the Appalachian Mountains in the United States, yes? The exper- ience was such a warm one that I didn ' t care about not having found a battery. Throughout China, members of our group were approached by language students, such as the girl in Sian, desirous of testing their English. He ex- plained that both language teachers and language learning materials are in short supply in China. He was disappointed because he had begun to learn French (a popular foreign language after English), but could not continue his studies because he no longer had a teacher. So desperate for English teachers are the Chinese that no more is required of a native speaker of English who wishes to teach than a high school diploma. The favorite English teacher of one of our guides had been a store clerk in Texas before teaching in China. One of everyone ' s favorite experiences while in China was the visit to a kindergarten in Shanghai. The children, aged four to six, were doing arts and crafts in some rooms, dancing (in which we were invited to participate) in others, and playing on playground equipment and in a sandbox outside. After a tour, we were treated to a program in which the students sang, danced, recited comedy dia- logue, and played musical instruments. Everyone was awed by their skill, talent, and memory. I was surprised to find that, almost without ex- ception, the kindergarteners were quite outgoing and uninhibited in their interaction with foreign adults. Perhaps this is due to the fact that most Chinese children are now growing up as only chil- dren. In order to slow the rate of the country ' s population growth, the government is encouraging marrying late and having only one child. Two children are permitted, but one is much preferred. Being an only child and thus receiving all the attention of both parents and much of that of the grandparents may have such positive effects as those witnessed at the pre-school. However, one guide expressed the fear that these circumstances might lead to spoiled children. The relationship between Chinese parent and child made a deep impression on me. Whether riding a child in the bicycle basket, holding his hand walking down a crowded sidewalk, or sitting with him on a street corner idly watching people come and go, the parent treated the child with apparently infinite patience and caring. It was es- pecially refreshing to see that fathers gave their children the attention and tenderness usually giv- en only by mothers in our culture. Pride in their progeny was obvious, especially when an Ameri- can asked permission to take a picture. The parent would become very enthusiastic, pushing the child in front of him and encouraging him to wave and smile. These people would not spank their children in Safeway. I left China feeling that I had been visiting an- other world, yet, ironically, being more impressed with those things we held in common than those in which we differed. Incredible. That ' s how China was. -Carole Powell Sk vBt t 4J V mm ■ttjn ■ B ' V ' St | U.

It grows with each practice and every sore muscle. It ' s what makes you push harder even when you don ' t think you can push anymore. It ' s the drive and determination necessary to bring individuals together to make a team. It is that feeling that makes working out on the hottest day or that extra hour of practice possible. It ' s what makes hard work, the sweat, and the tears all worthwhile. Winning is a frame of mind, a sense of pride.

All Americans, National Champions Shine At Centenary Lauren Cotter Ingram and Patty Hamilton Outstanding Student Gymnast, Jill Brown. All American Athletes are not uncommon on the Cente- nary campus. The Spring of 1983 In the spring of 1983 this high award was presented to two of the Centenary Lady gymnast, not for the first time either. For Ladies Jill Brown and Jennifer Forshee, becoming an Ail-American is easy. They both have accomplished this feat four times, to be- come Centenary ' s first four time All-Americans. Jill also was awarded the honored Outstanding Student Gymnast Award at the NAIA National Championships held in March, 1983. In tennis, Coach Jimmie Harrison once again brought a team home with highest standing in the NAIA women ' s competition. Senior, Lauren Cotter Ingram became the NAIA Women ' s Singles Champion when she defeated a Charleston player by a score of 6-2, 6-3. Sophomore Patty Hamilton also advanced to the semi-finals before being defeated. The Ladies team places second in the final compe- tition. Other members included Sandy MacMillian, Tam- mie Kelly, Cynthia Vanderslice, Edie Carroll, Missy Moore, Liz Montgomery and Cherie Winters. 4-time Ail-American, Jennifer Forshee NAIA Singles Champion, Lauren Cotter Ingram 4-time All-American, Jill Brown 13 After 4 Years . . . Where To Now? Graduation is a moment to reflect upon all those projects and all-nighters which had been suffered through, and to feel a sense of genuine triumph in overcoming it all. It is triumph tainted with the sad- ness of saying good-bye to friends and even Centena- ry. Yet, jubilation will win out in the end as the Graduates of 1984 bid Centenary a loving farewell and move on toward the future, walking away with everlasting pride. Meeting four years ago, Michelle Whitt and Claire Weigand will share a special friendship for a lifetime. Angela Estill seems to enjoy her last year participating in Chi Omega Rush.

Today ' s campus is expanding from virtually every side. New rose gardens and many renovations have become a familiar sight around campus. A lively college campus, full of spirit and pride makes for a great college life. The annual Fall Ball has become a big event to Centenary students. High School Weekend is also a popular event to celebrate. Practically every weekend during the semester offers some type of social event, varying from concerts in the shell to VCR movies in the coffee house. All students here have something in common, whether it is trying to talk Smitty out of that 3rd parking ticket or getting into the caf without your I.D. The students follow fad fashions, begin the weekends early on Thursday, sometimes Wednesday nights, and take part in the 6 AM fire drills and still make it to their 8:20 AM classes. Oh well, this is student life at Centenary College. t ' lm Welcome To Centenary Established in 1825, Centenary College has long been a part of Shreveport history, moving to the city in 1908. Together the college and city have shared patterns of con- tinued growth and mutual support. Home for over 350,000, Shreveport and its sister city, Bossier City, are the metro- politan center for northwestern Louisiana as well as a large part of East Texas and Southwest Arkansas. Located only two miles south of downtown, the campus is in the heart of Shreveport. Moderated temperatures year round encourages residents to water ski, camp, sail, canoe, and fish in over a dozen nearby lakes. Springtime offers Holiday in Dixie-a series of events varied enough to suit any fancy. In the fall, artisans and craftsmen from near and far gather by the side of the Red River in a celeg celebration of the arts known as the Red River Revel. Locally, the arts flourish as evidenced by the Shreveport Symphony, several art museums, and active community theatre groups. Excellent medical care is available through the ten general hospitals and two treatment centers in the area. Night life is active in turn-of-the-century clubs on Shreve Square and in spots throughout Shreveport and Bossier. And the tempo accelerates during the thoroughbred horse racing season at Louisiana Downs in Bossier, where more than a million spectators gather annually from early summer through late fall. Chi Omega celebrates the end of Rush Week and welcome home new little hooters. T© « Centenary has been a part of Shreveport since 1908. Freshman student, Renee Poole is a work study student in the President ' s office. 22 • Student Life Centenary is a place to meet new faces which will become life long friends. The shortage of parking spaces is evident as students arrive on campus for the new year. Centenary is a community of learners. That it tries to be truly a community, with a spirit, and inclusiveness, even a kind of surrogate family atmosphere, I hope you will soon know, personally and gladly. And that, as we are all alive, we are all learners, is obvious: students, teachers, staff are each unique, but each is, in dia- logue and in process, sharing insight and experience. Part of education is formal. Formal education requires curricula, procedures, even, some regulations! Bear with us, and with them, when they seem not to fit perfectly. Talk with us about it. But much education is informal. It oc- curs in the spaces -member ... in a corner of the library . . . And self confi- dence in the use of knowledge, comes in both ways. So, I welcome you warmly to a com- munity of learners: we are glad you are a part of us. Dr. Donald A. Webb President Freshman Rynelle Harrington arrives on campus. The campus, with its shade trees and running brooks, is an assett to the Shreveport community. Student Life • 23 Home Sweet Home?!?

If you ' ve entered the Caf yet, you may have noticed the prominent sign proclaiming a $25 fine for removal of cafe- teria ware and food items. This is just the beginning of a reestablishment of caf policies. Besides the rule against bor- rowing any glasses, silverware, and such, there will also be a rule against any takeout meals. This includes cokes, coffee, water, and even ice cream cones. No outside glasses or cups will be allowed in the caf, either. If you try to foolishly get away with any of these rules, be forewarned: You may meet up with Mattie, the fierce (but likable) caf moniter, who has been hired to ensure the policies will be carried out. Other policies which will be in effect are simply old policies that have been reinstated. For instance, the doors will be locked between meals and no one will be allowed in before or after hours. Also, the kitchen will be off limits. For faculty and staff brown baggers , drinks and a prepared salad can be purchased for lunch. The drinks ca will be 254 per glass and prepared salads can be purchased for $1. Usual- ly on Tuesday evenings, a special meal will be served. These specialties may be a Mexican Fiesta . . an International Meal , or a Make your own Banana Split , to name a few. Plans for picnics have been made during the fall and the spring. For those times when you don ' t feel your best and are unable to make it to the meal, sick trays may be obtained by contacting your RD or RA for a sick tray request, filling it out, and getting a friend to bring the request to the caf. The reason we have all these wonderful new rules to follow is very basic to all of us: We need better food. In order to obtain the money to get better food, the caf is making these changes in hopes of saving money. According to Dottie Deaton, the caf manager, they are trying to up- grade the quality of the food by getting rid of the extra expenses. An expense survey will be taken later in the year to determine if there is a measurable difference in the num- ber of cokes, etc. that have been drunk. So, even if this is an imposition, try to grin and bear it. You may be grinning for another reason soon: You may have actually enjoyed your meal! by: Lea Burelbach ■ •■■■Hi SJ-L.-! ■■■■ ■ ■■■■■l rJ i — r --■■■■■ ■■■■■Hi.  j .: «;;; ■■■■iki «- - r TIJ8222 ■ ■■■■(.. ._--_--- jrri U law ' ■■■ — Ml — «■!

Recognizing the value of the gathering of the faculty, administration, and student body as a campus community from time to time, the faculty has established the period from 11:00 am to noon on Thursday as a period reserved for such gatherings for academic and religious purposes. No other meetings may be scheduled during this period, by either faculty or students. Cultural Perspective credit is given to stu- dents for this participation. 27 The Sub Is Not Under Water! Contrary to popular belief a SUB is not always a vessel full of sailors that submerges under the water for long periods at a time. Rather it can be and is a building on Centenary College campus where students cong regate for the sole purpose of enjoying themselves. Like the before mentioned sub (as in marine), food is available for consumption. Though the menu may be slightly different (for example, Deli Casino ' s famous Gent sandwich), goodies are there for the munching. Let me elaborate on many other items and activities the C.C. SUB has compared to the Navy ' s version. While munching on delicacies such as poboys, yogurt, or the famous coffeecake, you can kick up your keels and enjoy your favorite program on the big screen T.V. in the Coffeehouse. But beware, the T.V. has magical powers that cause it to be flipped to All My Children at 12:00. There are also VCR movies almost every night with a wide variety to fit all taste. And mentioning taste, there ' s free popcorn to snack on while enjoy- ing the movies. If you enjoy a challenge the SUB has video games, ping pong and pool. Many important issues have been settled over a friendly game of pool. I want to thank the students, faculty, administration, and staff of Centenary for helping to make the SUB not a sinking ship, but a strong vessel where friendships and fun memories were formed. Kathy Heard, Director Student Activities The ping pong tables are used a lot during the break tii Organization Fair offered many freshmen the opportu ty to get involved in student activities. During break many students go to the Sub for a gam ' of pool. 28 • Student Life The newly covered pool tables are an asset to the Sub. Joy Jeffers and Kathy Heard enjoy the orientation activities. The Sub was filled during the annual Organizations Fair. Pierre Bellegard plays the video games in the Sub. Students go to the Coffee House to view the Big Screen TV.

Many of Centenary ' s students have obtained the honor of being granted fellowships and being accepted into prestigous graduate programs. The high standards set by the faculty encourage each student to reach his fullest potential. Pride in academia is not simply the joy of making an A, but in knowing that one ' s fullest capabilities have been reached. Earning an A at Centenary means that one has worked very hard to excel, and being an honor student is certainly something of which one can be proud.

It is neither a hard task, nor a chore. The pride one finds here is not, though, the kind that undermines character or undoes what is modest or kind; but it is a delight in quality. It is a pride in the place — in the campus as an environment, which we have as our trust for a while. From the archeological evidences hereabouts, it has been peopled for millennia. Long before the settlers came, Caddoan tribes lived all about here, with cultural and economic development advanced enough to maintain stable societies for centur- ies. In the lore of the Caddo tribes is a legend, that when all the world was drowning by a great flood, the Great Spirit placed near here, on a high point beside Clear Lake, one family of Caddoques, who alone were saved; and from that family all the Indian peoples descended. It was hardwood country — and yoncopins grew here! Mink, bear, wolves and lynx ran these groves - buffalo grazed the open spaces. And since first ground was broken on the modern campus, eighty years after our founding in 1825, bricklayers and carpenters have built handsomely here, and gardeners have taken pride in its groves. So that when each of us came to Centenary, we found it beautiful. And we committed ourselves that when the time comes to leave it, we shall leave it more beautiful still. The place is lovely; we take pride in it. But more important is our pride in its people. Here, people care: they believe in each ' s abilities, strive alongside each other to elicit the best in everyone, work for quality — and, experience it, delight in it! People achieve more than they dream possible here, because everyone assumes we came here for the finest we can be. And it is so! I ' m proud to be a part of this community. Dr. Donald A.

They are proud of its 159-year-old history: through wars, depressions, tech- nological and social change, achievements in many areas the College has been faithful to its charge of educating young people in the liberal arts. These graduates of the College are a continuing source of pride to the faculty. And well they should be, for they are loyal in their support of and interest in the College. It is gratifying to the faculty to follow the careers of the alumni in home-making, citizenship, busi- ness, and the professions. One group of which the faculty is understandably proud is the trustees and other patrons without whom there would be no College. Finally, the faculty are proud of one another and of the dedication and commitment evidenced by their contributions to teaching and scholarship. It is not amiss to say that faculty pride is a key component in Centenary life. Dr. Lee Morgan l | ■ ■■ ■ PBHB H ■• + ,;; . ' ; . • ' « n j .

Pride is for the mighty who can play the game with self respect and dignity, yet not simply for self glorifica- tion. Pride is having that stately spirit but not allowing that spirit to cause you to stumble to arrogant or foolish behavior. Pride won ' t cover up the mistakes we make, yet it will help us to face those mistakes and learn from them. Be proud and hold your head high when you set out on the field of competition. You ' re out there to show something you ' ve worked for and should be proud of. Your self esteem and opinion of yourself is a reflection of your self pride. Don ' t be haughty or conceited, but be proud. Pride is the key to winning the game. Jill Brown, gymnast 4-time All-American Men ' s Basketball Women ' s Basketball Nov 26 Oklahoma State Univ.

The program offers orga- nized, highly structured competition for all Centenary students and faculty. Each year over 200 people participate in Intramural activities. The entire Intramural program is an excellent way for students to get involved, meet people, and stay in shape all at the same time. With the variety of sporting events offered, there is an intramural event for everyone. 190 191 192 193 Greeks Greeks are a vital part of college life. Every year fraternities and sororities go through the process of recruiting those who will carry on tradition and become life long friends. For members, rush is a frantic, exhausting time but, also one for reunions with old friends. Being a member of a sorority means always having a sister to turn to when you need one. It really doesn ' t matter whether you are an alumna with a fifty year pin or a new pledge who has just lived through rush week. Being a member of a fraternity means always having a brother to go to when you need to get something off your chest. It really does not matter if you are an active giving orders or a pledge participating in the 6 AM cleanups. You never really outgrow the feeling of being a Greek. The best thing about it is that you can be yourself at the same time. A lot of students go through rush simply to get involved in campus activities and to meet new friends, but, many of them find themselves in a group of other students which whom they have a common bond of sisterhood, brotherhood, love, friendship and pride.

Centenary has many facets in which to excel and one of those is the Greek system. Sororities offer lasting friendships; service projects and social activities to help develop a more well rounded person. Panhellenic Council includes six representatives from each sorority. In the Fall, they plan and enforce Rush rules. Throughout the year they work towards maintaining good relations between the women ' s Greek organiza- tions. Communicating with the faculty and administration about ideas or problems is another important job of Panhellenic. 198 Interfraternity Council Ron Whitler, John Harrison, Scott Davidson, Kevin Murphy, Ron Viskoski, Jay Greenleaf, Jeff Robertson, Stacy Brown. FRATERNATIES? BROTHERHOOD? The experience of college life is a cold, strange one to the incoming student. Academic achievement, being the basis for college attendence, is foremost in your mind. Within a few weeks, you will settle into a comfortable class study schedule and, perhaps even know your way around campus. The friends that you have made along the way will serve to comfort and entertain you. All of a sudden, you look around and realize that you ' re only on the fringe of what college has to offer. I want to be somebody! you cry out. After everyone quits laughing and pointing at you for your untimely outburst, a confident man strolls up to you and, seeing your predicament, escorts you to his fraternity house. Before you know it, you ' re swamped with people anxious to find out who you are and what you ' re all about. These men are students but they share a common bond far stronger than the college campus. They are brothers. Wow! you exclaim. This is one big family! Where are Mom and Dad? The sounds of laughter echo throughout the frat house as you watch yourself stumbling again. A kind hand reaches out from the crowd and pats you on the back as a proud voice explains: You ' re right. In a way, we are a big family, for what we share is brotherhood. Brotherhood is a big word you ' ll hear alot during RUSH. It is a word that attempts to describe the mood, atmosphere, and feelings that eminate from within a fraternaty. Brotherhood offers you that feeling of belonging; that friend on a lonely night; the guys you pull an all-nighter for Biology with; the fellas you party with; the bunch that tells you women are no good when you get dumped on; and, most of all the guys that you ' d do anything for and that offer you the same in return. The decision is yours. Alot avails to you in your college years.

But to students at Centenary College, it has a different, unique defini- tions book, full of memories, a yearbook. Centenary, a campus por- traying everlasting pride ... is not only a very fitting theme for the 1984 yearbook but for the entire campus and the 1983-1984 school year. Whether it be in academics, athletics or student life, Centenary students and faculty take pride in all they see here, take part in here, and accomplish here. In Athletics we see All-Americans, All State Athletes and National Champions. In Academics we see Initiations into ODK, members of Alpha Chi, and students accepted to into prestigous Graduate schools. In organizations we see our World Fam- ous Choir, Rivertown Players presenting plays in New York City, the Media staffs working overtime to get a paper out, a show on the air, and the yearbook deadlines met. There is everlasting pride on this campus, just look around, you ' ll see! Dawn Calhoun The Last Chance This is the time when the most people are in the library, when we walk through the SUB and the gardens and people are studying, not socializing. For every beginning there has to be an end and the semester is no exception. What started as anticipation over papers, projects, and study suddenly turns into frustration as the papers aren ' t typed, the projects aren ' t finished, and the study-well, there were parties, ballgames, dates and phone calls-that never got done. How can something as much fun as Fall Ball and basketball games end in exams? Who knows, but here we are. We ' ve put off so long there are some of us who have forgotten what we put off. Here we are, 3 or 4 days to do a whole semesters of work. How does the professor expect us to remember the first lecture? But they really do expect it. It is amazing how interesting history becomes when you study it while doing calculus. And it is hard to keep your mind on studying, you ' re trying to figure out who all of those people are you ' ve never seen before, showing up in the library. And, then it ' s time. Test after test is taken . . . There are questions about things you ' ve never heard about before, let alone studied! But at least it is over ... all we do now is wait and hope. Some have clinched an A, some have grabbed a B or C ... others will try again. We know and believe that education is more than grades. It is what we are learning every day in our daily experiences. And every day is rich if we do not waste it or pass it by. Thanks Centenary for FINALS. You ' ve opened the oor to yet another semester. 226 • Closing ■■■Mm Closing • 227 The End Of Another Year The study hours are over, exams are complete and final grades are in the mail. Students are packing up and leaving this place they called home for eight months. As the boxes are loaded and students leave, the campus is silent; the dormatories are quiet, and hallways and classrooms are empty. Looking back, you remember the registration line, that first fraternity party, those midterm grades, intramural ballgames, concerts in the shell and even convocations, but most of all you remember the friends you have grown close to and will remain close to for a longtime. Some students will return home for yet another semester at Centenary in September-others are now college graduates and the end of the 1984 school year brought an end to their education here at Centena- ry College. 228 • Closing Closing • 229 Centenary College A Campus Portraying Everlasting Pride 230 • Closing Message From The Editor Jhe YONCOPIN staff has worked hard this year to produce a yearbook which we hope you will enjoy and be proud of. I ' d like to take this opportunity to thank each of the section editors, staff members, photographers and those of you that have helped make this yearbook possible. Special thanks must go out to a few special people: Janie Flournoy for always having her door open, Kathy Heard for providing me with an additional office, and to Rick, for always getting the pictures on time, putting that extra effort in your work, and for helping me through the trying times! We made the deadlines, missed the deadlines and even compromised with deadlines. We did make it; through the budget cuts, the lost pictures, cut classes and late night sessions. We all learned a lot about each other and at times grew tired of each other. We lasted though, to produce the YONCO- PIN for you-the students, the faculty, and the administration. We are proud of this 1984 YONCOPIN, hope you will be too! - Closing • 23 Student Index Abrams, Delton-51 Adams, Donnie-189 Adams, Lynette-41 Alien, Kathy-55 ' ' T i jl Allen, i an-56, 116 E mQ 3Si4oB3 AIIert KSt-53 jUKCl £2w T% Allred, Rebecca-54, 200, 202 KmPVI Amels, Veronica-63, t 6, 155 1 . L ' Anders, Rick-58, 100, 122, 123, 212 Anders, Todd-9I ; 105, 212 Andrews, ]im Ijj) Iftlf ' f lXjdgjO Andrews, joe 45, 50, 216 Andre$v Pg3y M ' T jJ f Andrie% Holly-62, 104, Sgra Armst r T 0 Arnold, John-62 '  y - ' : Ssl i 3 tc A twell.

Eighty-one year old Russell Barrow, an investment banker and member of the Board of Trustees, has enrolled at Centenary to work toward his degree in business, which he nar- rowly missed earning at the University of Texas over fifty years ago. In the classroom, Mr. Barrow sits on the front row where he tape records the lectures and participates in class discussions. After class, Mr. Barrow heads for his office in downtown Shreve- port. Mr. Barrow has been a member of Centenary ' s Board of Trustees since 1957. In 1967, he established the Physics Labratory in honor of his mother, Addie Johnson Barrow. He has also been active with fundraising efforts throughout the years. And what are his plans for the future? Mr. Barrow says, If I get my degree, I ' ll say ' Good! ' But I don ' t plan to go for my Ph.D. Closing • 253 254 Trustees The People Behind The Power Trustees For 159 years, the Board of Trustees has been a vital, ever-renewed bulwark for the college, Not only have the members given direction and guidance to the institution, but the members have ever been the most generous financial contributors to its support. The family names of many of its members appear on campus buildings and sites, and date far back into th e history of the College, for membership on the Board has become a family tradition, passed on to succeeding generations, not so much as a privilege but as a deeply felt obligation. Churchmen, bankers, lawyers, doctors, businessmen, alumni, civic leaders and just plain citizens give generously of their time, talent, and worldly goods to perpetuate the ideals of Centenary College, often times without public recognition. To account specifically in a work of this type for the generosity of donors, both on and off the Board, is impossible, but to ignore their contributions would be unforgivable. Thank You. William G.
