Preface 1 Traditionally, the Chanticleer has been a non-traditional yearbook. During the 1970's and early 1980's, it was ac- cused of being a forum for artistic ex- pression at the expense of an accurate representation of Duke students and their experiences. In 1983, we have at- tempted to present Duke University as it is experienced by the members of the student body. In so doing, we've used all the artistic ability at our disposal to cre- ate a book which, although hardly tra- ditional in the high school sense, as- pires to be truly representative in scope and outlook. Of course, the Chanticleer is, and always will be, an art form. This year, we wanted to produce a book which provided a historical record of the year at Duke, using artistic expression to tell the story. History is certainly an important part of our work. The Chanticleer is un- doubtedly Duke's most permanent pub- lication, and we must therefore produce something which will be meaningful years down the line. The fact that the yearbook sits on the shelves of nearly 6000 alumni isn't enough for us; rather, we envision a book that is really worth dusting off in ten or twenty years. Our staff wants you to be able to remember the soccer team's rise to national pow- er, the first annual Mary Lou Williams Jazz Festival, and the April 18th snow- storm that had us all shaking our heads in disbelief. The years we spend at Duke are unique for each of us, and the 1983 Chanticleer is designed to help us re- member the times we treasure most. It is unfortunate that the Chanticleer cannot document every experience of every student. Instead, we've tried to create a book which will stimulate each member of the Duke community in a unique way. Although every student isn't in the yearbook, we believe that, given a little individual imagination, the pages that follow will make you think, feel, laugh, reflect and, most of all, re- member. The 1983 Chanticleer is an ar- tistic, but not overly unorthodox, ex- pression of the personality and quality of University life as a whole, and it is our hope that it will be valued by students — both now and in the future. We hope you enjoy it. —The Editors The 1983 Chanticleer Volume LXXI Lewis A. Borofsky, Editor-in-Chief Copyright 1983 by Lewis A. Borofsky and the 1983 Chanticleer.
