• tVetcoMie Back The Pulse is here by Michelle Bair ftff Hi, and welcome to Cowley. To those who are sohomores, welcome back. What you ' re reading is a special edition of the PULSE, a student magazine started two years ago to replace the College ' s yearbook. We ' re especially proud of the PULSE because last year i t was named the number two general in- terest student magazine in the nation by the Society of Collegiate Journalists. But that was last year. This year, the staff is already at work to serve you. While you were attending your last minute before-school-starts parties, six members of the staff (the ones we could get in touch with and who were available) were cleaning out summer brain rot and got together to put out this special issue just for you. The entire staff will be working to bring the student body an up-to-date look at cam- pus life and recapture the memories before they ' re filed into the brain to collect dust. The PULSE will be published four more times this year and you can look for it in late Oc- tober, December, March and May. But this isn ' t the only student publication on campus. The 4 f Welcome Back » PULSE Survival Guide TIGER ' S ROAR, a daily newspaper, will keep you up to date on Cowley events of the current week. The editor of the ROAR is Lori Schwintz, a Win- field sophomore. The first issue is scheduled for Aug. 28 and you can look for it every day thereafter. THE CYCLE is a monthly newspaper and is more like the one you are used to at home. The editor is Arkansas City sophomore Steve Dye and the first publication date is Sept. 5. THE CYCLE will be out the first Friday of every month. I look forward to an exciting year for the magazine and the other publications, and I hope you like the extra edition sur- vival guide that a small group of the PULSE staff has put together. In addition to all the begin- ning-of-school policies you ' ll be asked to learn and know by heart, I want to add one request of my own. Read at least a small part of the PULSE- every issue. After all, you ' ll never know if you like it until you try it. Believe me, we ' ll be working hard to see that Mikie and you will definitely like the PULSE. Have a great year, Michelle Bair, PULSE Editor-in-Chief Mini-Mag Editor Steve Dye Photographer Jeff Dzeidzic Writers Stephanie Bruner John Dalton April Houston David Mclntj re This issue of the PULSE has been produced by a small por Hon of the PULSE staff as a welcome back to school edition.

GUIDE TO LIFE AT COWLEY

Who ya gonna call? by David Mdntire It ' s a cool October morning. As you rush down the dorm step, you trip on your size 10s and get to know the stairs and landing up close and per- sonal. While assessing the damage to your frame and that stunning ensemble you jumped into not minutes before, you notice your left ankle has swollen to the size of a large, very large, grapefruit and is the color of Smurfette ' s nose. As a popular movie of a few years back asked, Whatcha gonna do? If you ' re not a native of Arkansas City, this could be a sticky situation. A survival list of numbers is included here to help you out. First is 911. This one numer will get the police, fire depart- ment, or ambulance in just three digits. It ' s for emergency situations only so calling 911 to complain about that parking ticket you got last December wouldn ' t be advised. There are numbers for that, too. Those numbers, 442-3344 for the police department, 442- 2324 for the Fire Department, and 442-1410 for an ambulance are manned 24 hours a day, and if the dispatcher can ' t an- swer your question, they can connect you to someone who can help. If you need medical attention but the situation isn ' t pressing enough to call on 911, one of the places to go would be Arkansas City Memorial Hospital which is located at 1st Street and Birch Avenue. The phone number is 442-2500, and the emergency exit is located on the south side of the building. If what you have is the snif- fles or a dull ache or lumbago, any of a number of physicians will ' cure ' you in exchange for some of your (or mom and (Continued on page 14) Us EASY ENROLLMENT Susan Rush-Johnston enrolls three for either day or night classes at largest enrollments the College has freshmen college students.
