Student Life Staff members in upbeat mood for new year Dennis Mclntire Dennis Mclntire, who has been appointed resident manager of the New Dormitory should have his hands full the next two semsters. Dave Burroughs One of the new faces you may see around campus this year will be head baseball coach, Dave Burroughs. Burroughs, who will also oversee the intramurals program, accepted his position at Cowley for several reasons. I decided to come to Cowley for the opportunity it offered me, Burroughs said. College While most students will be getting settled in their classes. Mclntire will be juggling 40 student residents, approximately 24 baseball players and a new bride. Mclntire is no stranger to life in the dormitory. I just got out of a dorm situation myself so I know more or less what is going on, said Mclntire. I ' ve been around the students six years now in classes and while coaching so I think I can anticipate some of the students ' needs. The baseball season is a bright spot to Mclntire who says they are cautiously optimistic. We ' re starting to get excited about the season. We think we might have enough pitching and that is always the key to the season, he said. According to Mclntire the key to success at Cowley is involvement Get involved with something, Mclntire advised. I attended Cowley back in ' 82 and ' 83. In my first semester all I did was go to class and go home. I didn ' t know anybody and I even thought about quitting school. The second semester I played baseball and got involved that way, and I ' ve been here ever since. by Julie Reed coaching is one of the things I have always wanted to do. Burroughs also feels Cowley provides a better chance for a one-on-one relationship with the students. There are a lot of benefits to attending Cowley, said Buroughs. It ' s more personal. You don ' t get lost like you would at a larger university. Although Burroughs has some new events planned for the intramurals program it is obvious that baseball is his first love. Baseball is it, Burroughs exclaimed. We ' ll have a chance with a little hard work. Hard work is apparently an understatement We ' re going to put the players through the Bataan Death March for the first three or four weeks, Burroughs said. We ought to have a pretty decent team.

PUS rmitory kelson Center md dormitory W.S.ScottAuditorium- Gymnasium Just a couple of weeks from now, cheers and yells will fill W. S. Scott Auditorium as the Lady Tigers open their 1987 volleyball season. From that time on, this building will be the focal point of Cowley athletic events. But Scott Auditorium will also house many other activities, such as dances, physical education classes, and special student productions. W. S. Scott Auditorium features the Tiger Booster Club Room, offices for the basketball coaches, and a fully equipped weight room. Galle-Johnson Hall The heart of CCCC is Galle-Johnson Hall. Everyone who attends Cowley visits to Galle-Johnson in order to register, consult counselors, or pay fees at the Business Office. The college president locates his office in G-J, along with the Financial Aid, Public Relations, and Atheletic Directors ' offices. However, most students know they should show up for class, and that makes Galle-Johnson Hall the place to be. The variety of classes meeting in this building ranges from Art Appreciation to Biology and Psychology. The instructors at CCCC keep regular hours in their office areas located throughout Galle-Johnson Hall, and the other campus buildings. Business Technology If the business courses are the reason you are at Cowley, then you will spend much of your time in the Business-Tech building. The accounting classes meet in Business Tech, along with the computer and office education classes. Galle-Johnson Hall is connected to the Business Tech building by the student lounge, a favorite student hangout. Nelson Student Center There is a new look this year at Nelson Student Center. The College Bookstore has moved from its previous basement location to a new, bigger facility on the main floor. The game room has also moved, and it is now in the former site of the dining hall. This has allowed more space for games and conversation areas. The new dining hall boasts a scenic view of part of the Cowley campus. A major part of Nelson Student Center is the dormitory. Housing is available for 80 students, and laundry facilities are located on the lower level of Nelson. Ireland Hall The Police Science and Cosmetology departments make their homes in Ireland Hall. Although Ireland Hall is one of the older buildings on campus, it is on the National Register of Historic Places, and its architecture is distinctive and unique to the Cowley campus. New Dormitory How new is the new dormitory? Well, if you have a good sense of smell, you might be able to detect a whiff of paint in the air. The New Dormitory opens its doors for the first time this fall, and many of the Cowley students are eager to be the first to occupy this facility. Housing is provided for 40 students in this building. The residents of the New Dorm have a television room on each of the second and third floors, and the resident manager has an apartment located on the ground level floor. The New Dormitory increases on-campus housing to over 120 ' student residents. by Mark Patrick Pulse
