So I was disappointed! -Nancy Mosier, math instructor ARRAY i Blood Drive Campus Project a Huge Success As voters waited to cast their votes at the polls on November 6, Kansas Tech students lined up to donate life-saving blood in the cafeteria. Though the morning was relatively slow, that afternoon the number of donors picked up considerably. The final talley of pints drawn reached 125. Though the end amount did not equal the goal of 130 established by the American Red Cross, 96 percent means success in anyone's books. We had a better percentage this year than last year, said Jana Kahle, Student Blood Services Chairperson. lt all went much smoother. Jana Kahle, president of TOT, and Paul Cousins, Dorm Director, coordinated the annual blood drive which is Kansas Tech's only community service project. Several donors earned celebrity status. Bill Powell of the Civil Department reached as life-time total of having donated 50 pints. Brad Defore and Choirtz Reinhold were both recognized for having given nine gallons over the course of their lives. Don Cassett, computer instructor, hit the three-gallon mark, while Gerry Giroux and Gary Jordan both managed to go over the five-gallon mark. A total of 139 people showed up to give blood, though only 125 were accepted. Donors were rejected for simple medical reasons. Those who did voluntarily give up their blood were served beef stew with crackers, doughnuts coffee, tea and orange drink. We donated all of our left-over stew to the Gospel Mission qof Salinaj, said Jana Kahle, and they were tickled. Several area businesses made the meal which was served possible. They were as follows: Dillons, D. M. Premier, McDonalds, Ashtons, Weeks, G 8: J Meats, Beverlys and Cruce Produce. American Red Cross nurses from Wichita worked to attain the goal of 130 pints of blood. Registered nurses from all over the Salina area were on hand to assist in the drive. 4 - i R At left, Greg Smith represents the crazies on the third floor in the dorm as he donates life-saving blood.

Students and faculty watched over the next two and one half years as the building took shape. When Tom Creech first began visualizing what was to become the Technology Center, he thought in terms of Kansas Tech's mission. The concept of training technicians for the nation's workforce would play an integral role in the design of the building. On May 11, 1985, Creech welcomed Governor John Carlin to campus for the purpose of officially dedicating and opening the building for use. Other state administrators were on hand to share in the festivities, which included the celebration of Kansas Tech's 20th anniversary, as well. The finished design of the building held up to everyone's wildest reveries. The sharp angles, the clever use of glass, the colors of steel and blue and the aerie feeling within exemplified Kansas Tech. The Tech Center will be used as the hub of the campus: other buildings will eventually go up which will be connected to it as spokes to a wheel. As new educational facilities crop up across the high-tech campus, the remnants of Schilling Air Force Base will be torn down. Looking at the Technology Center from its east side as viewed from its south end below, shows the grounds after provides the viewer with futuristic thoughts. The glass panels landscaping. The hopes are that the Tech Center will be the overhead will allow plenty of natural light to filter throughout springboard of more physical improvements on the campus. the interior.

Regents Center would give KTI greater ty, and allow KSU to expand its out- mrogram, supporters said Wednesday. iter would operate from KTI's newly ed Technology Center but would be ietedmand staffed by KSU. - lidyfeommittee will make a report to Ioardubf Regents at its me-nth-f' administrative merger of KTI's two-year pro- gram with KSU's School of Engineering, ac- cording to regents member Larry Jones, Wichita, who was chairman of the special study committee. The idea of a Regents Center - similar to one operated in Kansas City by Kansas Uni- versity - grew out of various discussions in recent days between officials of the two schools and the regents staff as they weighed the pluses and minuses of the proposed merg- er. KSU President Duane Acker noted that his school now offers 32 courses in Salina at five locations. It seems logical that offering them at one location would be advantageous to us and the consumers of Salina, Acker told the com- mittee. L4 and we come away talking about a Re, Center, said Jones, one of three re, members on the committee. As Wednesday's discussion strayed the merger idea to the Regents Center cept, Salina banker Gerald Shadwick url quick burial for the original purpose fo committee study. I don't hear K-State saying it's entl about getting KTI, Shadwick said. I think KTI doesn't want to go. I'd like to let's put that issue to rest. Shadwick suggested several ideas foi proving KTI's image, including the Re, Center, an advisory committee to review school's mission, and consideration of a program in Wichita I E9 on two key fac I ,Hd la mmm, U. lurnal ge 'few Wmak His o pl ers f mi drubusner K an QEZQKQ poi fg to mer ' t, ge Ig LORI BRACK, Weekend Editor lplgjffahsas GOQM'-'JL s U lard and JIM HMG, Night Editor , A KH ol-,es TER SQ. fxpre Sen. of Re NSJ ponde 6 171 ssed St Ben PGS!! gems X Tl, at ni ' ' Lf 1' b ergef toni' o Thnfche idea friday e Kansa 1? is 'for f?

On April 30 the selected members who made up the Feasibility Study Committee met at Kansas Tech. The predominant attitude of members rang clearly throughout the four-hour meeting. Merging the two schools would not produce the desired effects listed by Stan Koplik in his original proposal. At the second meeting in June, the question ot merger was dispelled entirely. All present felt that Kansas Tech would serve the state, community and its students better if left to pursue its mission ,- without K-State. age n lik ica ha i e contr I w I nst ontri uc I wa of thi he si: D0Sal O ' 1 9 - i 3 S A ' in Q Z I ' f - . , .

As Director of Academic Affairs, Creech developed the courses and requisites for programs. He continued to update the programs and hire faculty for the next ten years. It wasn't until alter a year off that Creech took the president's position which he will now relinquish. After nine years as President of Kansas Tech, Tom Creech will step down and assume yet another role on campus. Fall semester '85 will usher in his official post as Placement Officer. His new job will provide students a spring board for locating iobs in the volatile market place. Wearing one hat can sometimes be an overwhelming task for some people. There are a rare few who are capable of successfully donning three, especially in an education environment. Tom Creech is rare, indeed. fi 4 fi-.DX Kahle, Heublein, Greenwood Share Honors As an acknowledgement of appreciation for their work, two students and one faculty member were given the highest awards possible from Kansas Tech.

Rap Sessions Provide Answers to Questions Twice over the course of the academic year did administrators appear before the student body in order to answer their questions and to generally rap with them. Fall semester saw President Creech, Dean Jensen, Jim Friesen and Dean Prosser at the Student Union fielding student questions. The Kansas Tech Reporter sponsored the event which was generally well attended. Administrators felt that the rap session was successful, while most students were slightly frustrated with the evasive responses. Spring semester found the same group of administrators in CD 103, headed by President Creech and Dean Jensen. The students on hand were substantially fewer than those who had attended the original rap session. The major questions asked by students revolved around the merger issue. They were mostly concerned with clearing up any of the confusion surrounding the proposed change. Literature and Technology What is man's role in the whole scheme of what they considered to be one of the more things? What is the purpose of advancing the enlightening classes taught on Kansas Tech's theory of progress, thus technology? How is campus. After reading selected material, both nature effected? What is good and what is bad fiction and non-fiction, students argued both fact in our technological society? These questions and premise. The course was the first of its kind and others were raised in Dale Sullivan's offered at Kansas Tech, and probably the last spring-semester offering, Literature and since Dale Sullivan has abandoned us. Technology. Fifteen students were enrolled in SAC Student Activity Council organized several events throughout the year for student enjoyment. It was this council, headed by Brad Richardson, which put on the overwhelmingly successful Spring Olympics. Ol 5 ill 31.3 tl-lla TECHNOLUGICAL SOCIETY '52 KCIDSCIS Tech Accredited Kansas Tech received a check up May 1 through May 3 from the North Central Accreditation Team. North Central visits college campuses around the country determining Cthrough extensive research, questioning, and studiesy whether or not a particular campus deserves to be accredited. Dr. Nancy Noll Cleftp, a member of the team, talks with students to get input about faculty, classes, facilities, financial aid, and the image of Kansas Tech. As a result of North Central's findings, Kansas Tech received a five year accreditation. Kansas Tech Enrollment Falters Enrollment figures for Kansas Tech dropped approximately for next year will be higher. From the look on Rick Dinkle s 221, from the preceding semester. Consequently, the tuition lace, there was nothing funny about last year's tuition.

Membership grew in swells, fundraising efforts were extremely successful. Above all, however, TOT should be remembered for its having established a scholarship fund for worthy Kansas Tech students. After having raised 600 dollars by way of a bowling tournament at King Louis' All-Star Lanes of Salina, officers approached corporations for matching funds. Many hours of legwork and mental frustration accompanied TOT officers on their search for the appropriate company. Finally, Lodgistix, Inc. of Wichita came through. At the May banquet which traditionally marks year's end, an executive of Lodgistix presented Jana Kahle with matching funds to make the scholarship fund a reality. TOT was able to disperse five scholarships to present and incoming students. Dave Ahlvers and Rosie Goll advised. Tech Reporter The Kansas The Kansas Tech Reporter achieved major milestones during the academic year. It became known as the voice of the student under the editorship of Betsy Greenwood and her staff. For the first time in the history of this publication, advertising appeared: Denny Greenwood spearheaded lucrative campaigns to make this happen. Staff writers for the paper included: Brad Harper, Lee Pepperd, Ruth Kelley, Joe Mauricio, Jackie Proffer and Greg Smith, who also circulated the paper. After much experimentation, it was discovered that the production of the paper could be achieved entirely on campus. With the help of SGA, who allocated enough money to buy a letter-quality printer, The Kansas Tech Reporter was produced using the Zeniths and the printer. Not enough can be said of the advice gleaned from certain faculty members. Sid Barnes, Greg Stephens and Dale Sullivan offered massive amounts of assistance. LAYOUT BRISTOL W layoulgm A if'-44'-5 044310-of 5 74-Jaw-Ia Peacock's Pride Symbolized on Although the peacock has been the campus mascot for years, it has never been boasted so highly as it has during the past year. Disregarding its origin, the peacock is quite appropriately a valuable symbol for Kansas Tech. The intentions of the peacock now begin to have meaning as Kansas Tech enters post-adolescence. Webster defines peacock as one making a proud display of himself. Considering the academic and extra-curricular excellence, as well as the image improvements made over the last three years, one would be correct in asserting that Kansas Tech has every right to be proud. The peacock has been used in the campus newspaper and appears in the yearbook-in both instances it was used to provide comic relief. But the campus mascot acts as more than a cartoon, if we look at it anatomically. The peacock as a campus mascot is an appropriate choice considering the current campus conditions. The proudly spread plumes serve as symbols of Kansas Tech's outstanding student populus and its strikingly new campus architecture: its body, sound and solid, represents the strong administrative force of Kansas Tech: its delicate head is the Board of Regents, which determines the proper direction we should take. Campus The sculpture pictured at right stands in the entry to the mechanicalfcivil building. A close-up can be found on page 63. I I ' Student Government Association The Student Government Association Cbetter known as SGAJ provides a needed balance between students and administration as well as a valuable source of monies for various campus organizations. SGA also represents Kansas Tech at outside functions. These include the Educational Fair, the Kansas Tech Open House, and the Kansas Tech Parent's Day. SGA ls a part of the many committees on campus also. Committees SGA has a voice in are the Trafflc and Parking Committee, Student Union Committee, and the Financial Aid and Scholarship Committee. When we look at SGA we must not forget that they are involved in making college life interseting and fun as well as comfortable for the student population. Some of the events or programs SGA worked at or distributed monies for were the Red Cross Blood Drive, Circle K International Convention funding, the purchasing of a Juki printer, and many others including attendance to the Wayne State Leadership Conference in Wayne, NE by SGA members. This year, the race for an officer position in SGA was the toughest this campus had seen in a long time. The campaign posters qbelow righty were more elaborate and professional than ever and stimulated people to get involved in the election. Another first was the meeting in the unlon of rival candidates to answer questions from students and verify campaign promises. The photo at right qabovey shows Harlan Ross QSGA president for 19843 and Matt Wilson Qnew SGA president for 19859 talking with students at the meeting.

The man of many hats has decided to leave his post as president of this high-tech campus. However, he hasn't left us all together. Tom Creech assumes the post of Placement Officer beginning fall semester '86. Though he won't maintain the position that we have all come to view as being his, he will maintain a seat ot importance on the campus that he loves so much. For all of his years of dedication to the Salina campus, we, the staff of the yearbook wish to show our appreciation. So, to you, Tom, this book is dedicated. We are with you as you carry on.
