As a result. - many colleges and universities across the nation have virtually ignored their Flag Football Intramural programs in an effort to remain competitive at the intercollegiate ' rr level. Eastern Connecticut State College. however. has refused to adhere to such thinking. Eastern has preserved its reputation as offering one of the finest Intramural programs throughout the entire New England area- in both the quality and quantity of its programs. Though the Intramural Department has been under the guidance of three different directors in the last three years, its widely varied activity format has not suffered in the least because of this rapid turnover. In fact, former Directors Robert Fisk, Dr. John Keleher. and current Director Susan Stethers have all instituted their own fresh ideas and policies which have continually improved the program and kept it constantly growing. Well over one half of the ECSC student body is now involved in one form of activity or another. Throughout the academic year, events ranging from bas- ketball to softball to bowling are offered- and most everything in-between. In all, more than I5 different activities- five male. five female. and five co-ed team sports, along with numerous individual activities. are organized for student enjoyment. This past fall, a women's flag-football league, which culminated in Super Bowl I, was added to the constantly' expanding list of activities. Intramurals has, in the past. and will more than likely' continue to bc. the most participated-in form of extra-ciricular activity at the college. Besides providing an outlet from the pressures of studying. Intramurals plays a vital role in the all around development ofthe college student. By offering good. clean competi- tion and enjoyment, ECSC's Intramural program continues to be an essential - -f f . ---Q ,cf .Ln no--A.-not-' .-.A--,s.ni.sn
