La Salle University - Explorer Yearbook (Philadelphia, PA)

Text from Pages 1 - 296 of the 1987 volume:

Explorer 1987 La Salle University Philadelphia, Pennsylvania hen we looked out of the classroom window f as high school seniors on those long, hot w w springtime afternoons, most of us thought only of meeting friends at the end of the day, arranging rides for the prom, or at best, making plans for summer vacation. Four years later, however, as we come to the end of our stay at La Salle, our daydreams un- doubtedly take on a much more serious tone. No long- er do just immediate plans lie beyond that window, but rather, the goals, desires and concerns that will ac- company life after commencement day. College has weaned us from the security of our par- ents and prepared us to face the challenges of society on our own. The complicated world that appeared so vast and indistinguishable in high school now seems to function more clearly as we begin to visualize ourselves within the framework. By acting as a safe but broad observation window that allowed us to survey every- thing around us, La Salle has widened our vision of the community gradually, so that now we can participate equally in the decision-making process. On the pages of this book, we have preserved the past year at La Salle as though it were a view from a large picture window. Our impressions of the pictures will change in the years to come just as the scene in the window is altered by the light of day or the passing of the seasons. May we remember our dreams not as unattainable visions beyond the window, but as the important foundations for what we will achieve tomor- ' Mm MLG and EWS Taking a Second Look Behind the Comedy — Dedication and Professionalism For sixteen years, Dr. John Reardon has been re- presenting La Salle at area high schools to recruit prospective students. He believes that in order to attract good students, you just can ' t sit back. You must give them something that will make them look at La Salle a second time. If anyone can make students look twice, it ' s Jack Reardon. Even if they don ' t notice his uncanny resemblance to Robert Redford, they ' re sure to respond to his sincerity, enthusiasm, and humor. Every year he continues to receive outstanding evaluations from his students, and his sections are the first to close at registration. His classes are fun. Charm- ing, suave, and witty (multiple choice answers that often appear on his tests describing you-know-who), Dr. Reardon makes learning enjoyable because if stu- dents aren ' t with, he says, they won ' t learn. Hence, the scribbling on the walls and closet doors, the Hallow- een and Christmas stories, the vignettes, the heel kicks, the threats to jump out the window, and his infa- mous critique of African Queen. His performance, however, is no act. Although comic on one level, the underlying theme is serious and de- rives meaning from his own experience. He teaches about learning — his jokes, expressions, and spontane- ity are merely props. There he stands at the front of the class, relating some of the most embarrassing mo- ments of his life, just to make his students laugh. Most of his humor is directed toward himself; he plays upon his own insecurities and limitations. Because students rec- ognize Dr. Reardon ' s ability to joke about himself, they also respect and trust him. When he tells how he almost passed up a college education for a career making bobby pin tips, they don ' t doubt his earnest plea to take their educations seriously. Each semester, he sets aside a class period to talk about choosing courses wisely — not just to meet reauirements, but to take advantage of the learning opportunities that will be gone after graduation. His dedication to students won him a Lindbach Award for Distinguished Teaching in 1969, after only seven years at La Salle. A La Salle gradute himself, Dr. Reardon has a sense of the changes that the school has undergone in the past thirty-five years, and he continues to be an active force in La Salle ' s develop- ment. Well-respected for his integrity and judgment, he was elected to the faculty senate for 13 years, and then elected by the senate to the University council. Dr. Reardon is one of three academic counselors for the Pre-College Counseling Program, has moderated the Accounting Association, and, most recently, was appointed to the committee commissioned to ap- prove the building of the new library. In 1986, he was awarded the Sigma Phi Lambda Roland Holroyd Award for these and many more contributions. A devoted family man with two children at La Salle, Dr. Reardon is admired for other, intangible qualities best described by his colleagues. Brother Gerry Moly- neaux of the Communication Arts Department, and once a student of Dr. Reardon ' s, marvels at his ability to adapt and respond quickly to situations while remain- ing calm and offending no one. His judgment is a val- ued commodity at faculty meetings where controver- sy can often lead to heated discussions. Even in his younger days, Jack Beans Reardon was looked up to, and as head baseball coach Gene McDonnell remi- nisces, He was quiet, but a team leader. With pride, we dedicate the 1987 Explorer to one who has given twenty-five years to our school, and whose uniaueness has added new dimensions to the words teacher and friend.

O ' Brien The new La Salle University Library, presently being constructed on the southwest corner of 20th Street ana Olney Avenue, is expected to be completed in February or March of 1988. Its arrival will thrust La Salle into the age of technology and aid in the provision of a better education for present and incoming La Salle students. When La Salle received an initial donation of $2.5 million, three plans for a new library were considered. Technology Forges New Concept for the Library constructed in 1952 when the college had an undergraduate enrollment of 1,050 full-time students ana 1,020 part-time stuaents. With a planned life expectancy of approximately twenty years, it has served the school for almost thirty-five. The Wister Hall Annex was added in 1973 to provide more volume space. Although the two facilities house almost 210,000 volumes, a larger library is needed to accomodate La The ground breaking ceremonies took place June 9, 1986. Because the school designated a new library as top priority, the donor, who later contributed an additional $8.5 million in the fall of 1985, approved the proposed use of funds. La Salle ' s present library facilities are housed in two separate buildings on campus. The David Leo Lawrence Library was Salle ' s growing enrollment. The Library Building Committee (LBC), established in January of 1985, met seven times during the summer of 1985 with Brother President Patrick Ellis and other administrators to review the presentations of prospective architects an d construction firms. The The design for the New Library showing the east elevation. Presiaent and Provost Bro. Emery Mollenhauer, following consultation with representatives of the University and the LBC, chose the highly regarded architectural firm of Shepley, Bulfinch, Richardson and Abbott of Boston, Massachusetts. The firm has had a distinguished list of commissions, including libraries at Harvara, Cornell, and Dartmouth. Nason and Cullen, Inc., of Rosemont, PA, was appointed as the construction firm. The LBC also made visits to three college libraries (Widener, Drexel, and Lehigh) to assess the strengths of their newly built libraries. The visits provided the staff with insight concerning features that have been implemented at these institutions. With all the planning stages completed, groundbreaking ceremonies were held on June 9, 1986, and Nason and Cullen began construction in early September. Decisions to be made during construction will be the responsibility of administrators working directly with the architects and the manager of Nason and Cullen. The new library will have the capacity for 500,000 volumes, compared to the present limit of 150,000 volumes at the Lawrence Library. The 105,000 square foot structure will contain three floors and have a seating capacity of 1,250 students. The combined seating of the present two facilities is listed at 600. The new facility will feature the Library of Congress Classification system (replacing the Dewey Decimal system), ' an automatic card catalogue, computer terminals, twelve group study rooms, and a large classroom complete with a television projection system. The first floor will contain the Reference Department, Current Periodicals, the Inter- Library Loan Office, and two rooms with personal computers. The second floor wili serve as home for the Paton Receives Degree By Jack Scavicchio The construction site is located on what was formerly the faculty and student parking lot. Students now find alternative parking at Good Shepherd. administrative directors, and also hold group study rooms and stack space. In addition, it will house an audio-visual department with visual tapes, compact discs, micro-tilm, and microfiche. And to provide more reading space, there will be a Special Collections Room. The top floor will be situated under an eighty- foot skylight which will provide a pleasant atmosphere for studying and reading, which will be the primary function of the third floor. Jean W. Haley, La Salle ' s director of library services, said that the skylight is an example of La Salle ' s destined direction in the use of technological advances. The new library will be adaptable to any and all future technological advances, Ms. Haley said. There also will be an informal student lounge on the ground floor which will accomodate students with vending machines and coin- operated lockers. Ms. Haley sees the new library as a great addition to the La Salle campus and welcomes the adeauate space for students. With the new library, students will have access to more volumes, longer hours, additional departments, and a lounge. It will be many things wrapped into one. The date for moving the collection from Lawrence ana Wister to the new library will be announced at a later date by Ms. Haley. The Lawrence Library will be converted to administrative offices, and the Wister Annex will be a combined bookstore, textstore, and computer lounge. Brother President Ellis announced in the late spring of 1986 that the donor will underwrite the full $11 million cost of the project. The University has been afforded a magnanimous gift and has not been forced to increase tuition. The costs for converting the book collection from Dewey to Library of Congress cataloging (currently underway) and for conversion from manual to a fully automated library operation are being borne outsiae the project budget. The La Salle community anxiously awaits the new addition to the campus. It was a fine Sunday afternoon in October as the La Salle community gathered for the 1986 Honors Convocation. The purpose of this annual event is to recognize the achievements of those students who have attainea Dean ' s List status during the previous academic year. South African writer and political activist Alan Paton was chosen for special distinction at this year ' s convocation, receiving the honorary aegree Doctor of Humane Letters, in recognition of his outstanding work for the improvement of the human condition over the past six decades. After the students ' names were read by the deans of their respective schools, all attention turned to the guest of honor, who actually began his career as a physics teacher in 1925. Mr. Paton, however, soon left this profession to pursue other interests, and first gained international attention in the mid 1930 ' s for his efforts to reform the South African penal system. Then, with his first novel, Cry, the Beloved Country (1948), he embarked upon a literary career which wouia see him explore the underlying causes and effects of the apartheid system in South Africa. As Paton ' s reputation grew, so did his active involvement in the internal political turmoil of his native land. A firm belief in the eguality of all men caused him to join the multi-racial Liberal Party, eventually becoming its National President in 1958. He bravely endured government harassment, which included the revocation of his passport for ten years and constant surveillance by the secret police, while continuing to speak vehemently for the peaceful reformation of government policies toward the native black population. As introductory speaker Mr. Claude Koch pointed out, Paton ' s literary reputation in the west was probably his only protection against more drastic reprisals by the South African government. This literary reputation is a Brother President Patrick Ellis and Professor Claude Koch congratulate Alan Paton. Koch sponsored Paton for his honorary degree. direct result of Paton ' s ability to prevent his political beliefs from vitiating the quality of his art. In his fiction, Paton is always able to portray realistically the social and psychological consequences of the apartheia system through carefully constructed plot and character development, rather than through mere propagandist exposition. Commenting upon this difference between Paton and other political writers, Brother Patrick Ellis remarked that, It is rare indeed to find a politically motivated individual who manages to retain his artistic integrity while still being able to convey his political message. Using the Literature and Religion theme of the convocation as a basis, Mr. Paton discussed this ability of the highest art to effect positive change in the human community. He began by describing the dual nature of mankind as the capacity to perform the greatest deeds, or the worst. He sees these worst deeds, emanating from the animal part of man ' s nature, as being directly opposed to the potential for good acts which comes from the development of man ' s more spiritual faculites, language and reason. Only through the cultivation of these tools, he explained, can man form a more solid bond with his Creator. Mr. Paton emphasized the role of the artist in the formation of this bond by citing Sydney ' s idea that the poet is mankind ' s closest spiritual link to God. His mastery of the Word places a special moral obligation upon the writer to use his talents to make the rest of mankind aware of its Creator ' s wishes. This prophetic role of the poet was exemplified by a short excerpt from William Blake ' s poem, The Tyger. While observing the majestic beast, the poet asks, Did he who made the lamb make thee? Paton understands Blake to be sifting through the multiplicity of the natural world in order to comprehend clearly the intention of its Creator, and hence to perceive more precisely the role of man in that creation. This constant probing and redefining of the human condition must result, says Paton, in a more just and moral course for the race as a whole. The presence of this great man, eighty-three years old, who has witnessed the worst of violence and persecution during his lifetime, but who, nevertheless, has the courage to stand before the world and say, Yes, I do believe that there is hope for the future, surely served as an inspiration to those in the audience about to begin their own careers. His life ' s work places into proper perspective the real purpose of education: to enable the human race to make decisions intelligently and collectively that will improve the quality of life. And that, as Brother Emery Mollenhauer remarked in his closing address, is the whole purpose of education at a liberal arts university, and what the 1986 Honors Convocation was all about. McCloskey Marks 40th Anniversary By Mary Goldschmidt 1986 saw many changes among La Salle ' s administrators. The departments formerly supervised by the Vice President of Public Affairs Mr. John McCloskey are now headed by the Vice President of Development, Fred Foley. Foley has replaced former Vice President John McCloskey, while McCloskey now occupies the position of Director of Public Affairs. Also under Development are the directors of Alumni, Career Planning and Placement, Communications, ana the News Bureau. The Special Activities Office has been phased out. 1986 also marked Mr. McCloskey ' s fortieth year at La Salle, and on Sunday October twelfth, he was honored with the La Salle University President ' s Medal for outstanding and dedicated service to the school. A reception, held in the ballroom, was attended by Wilson Goode, Mayor of Philadelphia, Senator Joseph Rocks, and representatives from other area high schools and colleges. Other personnel changes include the appointment of Dr. Alice Hoersch, of the Geology department, as Associate Dean of the School of Arts and Sciences, and Mr. Greg Bruce, formerly Director of the M.B.A. Program, as Associate Dean of the School of Business Administration. Upon the resignation of Dr. Joseph Brogan, Mr. John King has been named the new Director of Admissions in the Evening Division. Actors from the British Stage By Anne Undine For one week in October, the La Salle community enjoyed the talents and energy of five British actors who made up the Actors- in-Residence Program. Faculty coordinators Dr. Barbara Millard and Mr. Sidney MacLeod arranged to bring these representatives of the British stage to campus through an educational program developed by the Alliance for Creative Theatre, Education, and Research (ACTER). ACTER draws its members from companies such as the Royal Shakespeare, the National Theatre, and the BBC. Almost as soon as they prrived on campus, actors John Burgess, Vivien Heilbron, David Rintoul, Michael Thomas, and Philip Voss began a whirlwind agenda of workshops and class lectures. Michael Thomas met with members of La Salle ' s Gavel Society and offered tips on oral interpretation of poetic and iSeutue tl?£ §ptrtt of Ultam §l?akesp£are dramatic works. Members of the Masque were priviledged to receive the insights of David Rintoul, John Burgess, and Michael Thomas on the value of improvisation and voice techniques. In addition, members of Lambda lota Tau, the English Honor Society, sponsored an informal, open discussion with Michael Thomas who answered a myriad of questions ranging from acting for television to the proposed reconstruction of the Globe Theatre. The actors also spoke in several English classes, sharing their experiences from the contemporary British stage. Vivien Heilbron and David Rintoul delighted students studying Shakespeare ' s plays this semester, as they explained how five actors work their way through the text of a play to decide how it should be interpreted on stage. They believe that Shakespeare ' s plays are meant for actors to interpret, and that each performance is a unique play. Of course, the actual performances of these gifted actors were the focus of the week ' s activities. As a part of the Concert and Lecture Series, Michael Thomas presented a series of selections from the works of British poet Dylan Thomas. Michael Thomas ' infectious enthusiasm for the poet ' s work spread to the audience who especially enjoyed Dylan Thomas ' numerous apologies and excuses for procrastination expressed in his letters. On Wednesday and Friday evenings, the actors presented sold-out performances of William Shakespeare ' s Hamlet. This impressive show was done without costume or scenery and only a few essential props; but the most fascinating aspect of the performance was the way in which over thirty roles were undertaken by only five actors. The audience followed the action of the play easily with the help of cues in the play, and the laudable characterizations by the actors. The sharing of Featured in an exhibition in the Art Museum were pictures of the most famous Hamlets, and a Poor Yorick skull prop. Vivien Heilbron and David Rintoul roles, in fact, added to the richness of two incredible performances. The shows were highlighted by David Rintoul ' s Hamlet and Vivien Heilbron ' s mad Ophelia. Few will forget Philip Voss ' s frightening ghost of Hamlet ' s father or John Burgess ' s stunning Polonius, as well as his role as the amusing gravedigger. Michael Thomas gave a moving performance as the emotional Laertes, and succeeded spectacularly as both Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. The actors ' last show was on Saturday with An Evening with Noel Coward. They enacted short excerpts from such popular Coward plays as Private Lives and Design for Living, as well as some of his songs and poems. Following a week of serious drama and literary discussion, actors and audience alike found the performance enjoyable and fun. The actors ' stay at La Salle was a rare and exciting opportunity for anyone who was fortunate enough to attend a show or class. What also made the week special was the generosity and enthusiasm of the actors who gave so much of themselves at every opportunity. Brother Patrick Ellis. President, La Salle University A view of Bro. Patrick ' s new office in the renovated farm house on the Mr. Raymond Ricci. Director of Planning Belfield property. Setting The Example By Elizabeth Vrato When asked about his main goal or hope for La Salle. Bro. Emery Mollen- hauer laughs, There are so many! It is precisely this characteristic of having many hopes and goals for La Salle that has made Bro. Emery such an important administrator and teacher over the years. Bro. Emery came to La Salle in 1960, serving as the Dean of the Evening Divi- sion from 1961-69. In 1969, he became the Academic Vice President, a title which was later changed to Provost. Along with his administrative duties, he has been a Christian Brother for forty years, and teaches in the English De- partment. Bro. Emery graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Catholic University of America, and he earned his masters and doctorate from the University of Pittsburgh. At present, not surprisingly, Bro. Emery characterizes himself as a work-oriented person. He serves as chairman of several committees: Aca- demic Affairs, Curriculum, Tenure and Promotion, Academic Scholarship, and Leaves and Grants. Along with his many responsibilities, Bro. Emery still finds time for a wide range of activities. For instance, he has been swimming every night for several years. He has read the London Times Literary Supplement every week for over thirty years because he thinks it is the best review of the arts and litera- ture. As to his favorite movie, he says The best one I ever saw is The Deer- hunter. He most frequently reads the works of John Updyke, Peter DeVries, Barbara Pym, and Robertson Davies; he also has a special affinity for all the de- tective stories of Edmond Crispin and P.D. James. And a relaxing summer re- treat on weekends is the Christian Brothers ' home in Ocean City. That Bro. Emery is so well-rounded re- flects his belief that La Salle ' s successful growth over the years is due, in part, to the school ' s attention to its own well- rounded development. He relates some of the changes that have taken place since he has been here. He states, We ' re a much more compli- cated institution. We have larger num- bers and larger programs. Perhaps the biggest change is the expansion of the committee system since 1969. But one thing that has never changed is the very real collegiality which character- izes the institution. Bro. Emery says that La Salle has evolved — academically and adminis- tratively — with the best American col- leges and universities. He believes we are in collusion with other major institu- tions, as evidenced by the memorable visits from Alan Paton and the actors from Britain this year, about which he says, Similar occasions — moments — are special interludes to remember. They are essential to the quality of our education. He finds a change in today ' s student body in that students today are prob- ably more docile than fifteen years ago. I ' ve always liked La Salle students because I find that their basic values are consonant with those of the broth- ers and of the university. And I think we have a larger number of students of great intelligence than we appreci- ate. Looking to our future, Brother be- lieves: I am honestly very confident that the vitality that marks so much of La Salle at present will be sustained and advanced because of the spirit and objectives of our faculty, administra- tors, and students.

Administrative Assistant, Arts and Sciences Bro. John Owens, Chairman, Roster Committee Defying the Laws of Physics: Undiminished Kinetic Energy By Maureen Ryan Remember all those questions Broth- er Gerald Fitzgerald posed to you dur- ing your pre-college interview with the Admissions Office? Perhaps the most difficult one was What can you bring to La Salle? If Br. Gerry were respond- ing to the question, he would be able to give quite a few answers. Most people know Br. Gerry in the administrative position of Director of Admissions, or as a faculty member in the Accounting Department. Residents may also recognize him as a member of first floor Albert ' s. Greeks know him as advisor to Alpha Theta Alpha and Pi Kappa Phi. Asked which role is his favor- ite, Br. Gerry is quick to respond, From early on, I knew I wanted to be a teacher. As anyone from his accounting classes would know, Br. Gerry ' s idea of teaching consists of much more than lecturing and testing. His goal is to get students enjoy learning, because, If you can get students to start liking something, they take off and fly. He declines to give any kind of advice to students, but, rather, he wants to instill in them the motivation to be aware that they have the ability to do tre- mendous things for themselves, the world, and La Salle. And why ac- counting as his chosen field? Solving many of the social problems of the world comes down to dollars and cents, and Br. Gerry sees his role as a teacher as making sure that people dealing with the economy have a con- science towards those less fortunate. It is not surprising that teaching is Br. Gerry ' s favorite role, since the students Bro. Gerry Fitzgerald are his favorite part of La Salle. Seeing them progress through college life an d their career development is what he finds rewarding about his relationship with La Salle students. Br. Gerry enjoys his home in Albert ' s with its revolving door because he is among students day by day. A La Salle graduate himself, Br. Gerry describes his college years as the unique times of the Vietnam War. His freshman year at La Salle also marked his entrance into the Christian Brothers Community. He says of that time, I felt I knew what I wanted to be: Christian Brother and teacher. The biggest challenge of his college career was justifying that goal to other students around here. Br. Gerry faces another unique chal- lenge. As those around him can attest, his high energy level and enthusiasm seem to remain undiminished, even after a long day of Discover the Differ- ence or high school visits. Occasionally, this presents a difficulty for him. I tend to be very kinetic and nervous. I always have things done yesterday that are due next week. The task is learning how to control my kineticism. Even Br. Gerry has a need to get off campus now and then. During the win- ter, he frequents the ski slopes, Spring Mountain in particular. In the summer, he takes off to the Chesapeake or the Jersey Shore to sail. When the frustra- tions of normal life attack, he says, I run out to the water where there is no telephone! It is difficult to imagine Br. Gerry re- charged; however, that is what he is like after one of his vacations. Perhaps it is his ability to maintain such a high energy level that prompts his col- leagues to tease him about being per- fect to teach the third grade. He does not rule out the possibility. He says that I ' ve taught on every level except the elementary. I ' d like to try that before I retire.

Director of Financial Aid 47 A Life ' s Journey to La Salle By Chris Combs If you look through his wallet, you ' ll find only two credit cards (he ' s shred- ded all the rest). One is a Mastercara. The other is an American Express Card. You may know him. He is Ronald C. Di- ment. (Catherine Dunworth liked this open- ing, despite its attempt for a cheap pseudo-laugh, and since I like Cather- ine, I decided to keep it. But this is about neither a wallet nor Catherine.) Affectionately known on official Resi- dent Life Office memoranda as Ronald C. Diment, Ron has ably served as the Director of Resident Life at La Salle since 1979. Ron is a complex charac- ter, not easily described or under- stood. To those how don ' t know him well he seems like a relatively simple ana easygoing man, but those who do know him realize that he is a deep person with many different sides. Perhaps there is no better way to under- stand such a person as Ron than to examine his humble beginnings. The man is a derivative of his own tale. Ron was born in Boston, but he and his family moved to Philadel- phia when Ron was five years old. As a small child Ron remembers belonging to a gang, the 55th Street Gang, which spent most of its time competing against oth- er street gangs in street sports like stickball, rather than engaging in terrorist-type activities. Ron was a good kid, and showed remarkable ma- turity in separating himself from this loose conglomeration of adolescents at age thirteen. Not so coincidentally, his family also moved to Havertown at this time. Scholastically, he attended a private school, Friends Central, through high school where he captained the baseball, basketball, and soccer teams. Describing himself at that time as the thinking man ' s jock, Ron was voted Outstanding Athlete of his senior class. In reviewing his childhood, it is readily apparent that Ron was ex- posed to a myriad of ethnic and cultur- al practices, giving him a strong base of understanaing for his destined job at La Salle. Ron moved on to attend Lafayette College, for which he aamits he was ill- prepared. When I first went to col- lege, I was clueless ... as clueless as the most clueless person on your floor, Ron fondly reminisces. Placed in a five- year dual B.A. B.S. degree program, Ron finished his first semester with a G.P.A. of 1.30. Not one to ignore bla- tant omens, Ron quickly switched to a four year B. A. program, majoring in psy- chology. Again, he was active athleti- cally, participating on the soccer and baseball teams, and he even served as a Resident Assistant his junior year. So- cially, Ron was a member of the Phi Del- ta Theta fraternity, which had a repu- Ron Diment tation as an Animal House before National Lampoon, and at first was the kina of guy who tossed guys in their un- derwear out of fourteenth story dormi- tory windows. Later, in further develop- ing as his own person, Ron once again cut his ties with a group, this time leav- ing the fraternity after his junior year when student concerns focused much more upon social ana political issues than on social groups. Ron graduated in 1971. With a low araft lottery number, Ron was very nearly conscripted into the armed forces. However, he remained on his life ' s march to La Salle when he failed his draft physical. Before he could be redrafted, Ron scampered off to Penn State where he received his Mas- ters degree in Counseling College Stu- dent Development. While there he acted as a Resident Director. Noting that he was tired of being a student, Ron fled, oddly enough, to Southside Virginia Community College for his first job, as a counselor. Southside was a rural school which served ten counties. For his first year there, Ron lived in a room atop the town ' s general store, whose proprietor was a man named Abel Bottoms. The towns peo- ple immediately labeled Ron the man who lives on top of Bottoms. Unsatis- fied with these conditions, Ron moved out onto a farm for his remaining four years at Southside. It was great. I lived with a family ... I fell in love with a hog, Ron recalls, hastening to add, I got to work with the animals in keeping up the place. His final stop prior to La Salle was at Saint Andrew ' s Pres- byterian College in Lavrinberg, NC, where he was appointed As- sistant Dean of Students and gained valuable experience as the school ' s director of housing. Ron remained there for two years. In June of 1979, Ron finally ar- rived as Director of Resident Life at La Salle. For the first three months of this job he occupied La Salle Apartment D4, while some students were to be placed in houses on Olney Avenue and Twentieth Street. Ron ' s first chal- lenge presented itself when he appeared before the city ' s zon- ing board and was greeted by a busload of neighborhood people protesting that students were in these houses. In light of the enor- mous opposition and being unpre- pared for this demonstration of neigh- borhood solidarity, the students were moved to Ron ' s apartment and Ron moved into the house along Olney Avenue, where he ' s been ever since. He purchased the house from the school two years later. Since then things have gone much more smoothly for this old pro. The high- lights are many, the lowlights few, and some of the memories are as vivid to- day as when they first occurred. There was the time the huge sign was stolen from the corner of Twentieth and Ol- ney during Senior Week, which is part of the reason why there no longer is a Senior Week. There was the George Bush, the shrub outside the hall during Development Mr. Fred Foley. Vice President of Development Mr. Robert Lyons. Director of News Bureau the presidential campaign of 1980. There was the time ProhiPition was de- clared at Theresa Court, when resi- dents were mixing it up with a gang from Kensington. I ' ve seen it all, says Ron, meaning it. As a man, Ron is heavily into sports. In his childhood, he idolized Richie Ash- burn. He also enjoys attending the the- ater. At home is a Persian cat, Emily, who Ron claims will sit up and beg on command, a trick Ron frequently per- forms in his office with students. On September 27, 1986, Ron wed his girlfriend of three years, Mary Ann Mc- Kenna, who currently teaches art at the Pennsylvania School for the Deaf. The story of their meeting is classic: Ron came up to these two women at the bar at the Depot, one of which was Mary Ann, and asked her to dance. Both women accepted. In fact, up until the end of the night, it was still undecid- ed between the two girls who would be the lucky one and get to keep Ron, but Mary Ann prevailed. The rest is his- tory. What does the future hold for Ron? He hopes to have children eventually. Occupationally, he is on no timetable. When asked if he is grooming the giant Assistant Director of Resident Life, Marty Brumme, as his successor, Ron re- plied, My comb can ' t reach that high, in typical Dimented humor.

It is the people who make up La Salle — the students, teachers, and administrators who give the communi- ty its character. — La Salle University Bulletin ' 86- ' 87 Dr. Lynn Miller has been enjoying the people at La Salle for six years now. It all began on Dr. Miller ' s first day as a faculty member here at La Salle. She was in the checkout line in the Union cafeteria when she realized that she had forgotten her wallet. Much to her initial surprise, the woman at the regis- ter told her not to worry about it, just bring the money in later. It is this attitude of people caring about people that has most impressed Dr. Miller about La Salle. Her first day experience has carried through to the present, making La Salle an enjoyable experience compared to the formality of graduate schools. The atmosphere at La Salle, the research support avail- able, and the well balanced program between research and teaching have all contributed to her desire to contin- ue working here. Dr. Miller teaches a variety of man- agement, statistics, and quality of work life courses to undergraduate stu- dents. Students leave her classroom with a well rounded appreciation for the subject matter instead of a pack- age of raw facts. Her blend of psychol- ogy and human factors with her knowl- edge of computers and statistics adds a certain element of realism to her teaching style. Contrary to the image I have por- trayed to this point, Dr. Miller does not live at La Salle. She also enjoys an active personal life centered around her favorite hobbies of jogging, tennis, and writing. She shares these hobbies with her husband, Dr. Richard Weiss, who is very much involved with her re- search as well. She is currently doing research relat- ing job classifications to types of leisure activities to see if people who have un- fulfilling jobs spend their leisure time the same way or if they compensate for an unsatisfying job by engaging in more active or exciting activities. Together, Dr. Miller and her husband have pub- lished articles on organizational culture, employee satisfaction, and organiza- tional analysis. As a faculty member, Dr. Miller has become what she admired most about La Salle University when she first arrived, a person who cares about people. Management Dr. Kathryn Szabat Mr. George Swoyer Screamer of the Week By Michael Sepanic If you ' ve ever taken a marketing course at La Salle, you ' re probably fa- miliar with the following scenario. You ' re sitting in class, trying desper- ately to pay attention and take notes, when suddenly, from down the hall, there comes a scream that sounds like bloody murder. You pause for a mo- ment, then continue your work. A few minutes later, another such bellow comes thundering down the corridor. Your teacher smiles, shakes his head and says, George is at it again. Such antics are perhaps what George Swoyer ' s students will always remember him for, yet he must be do- ing something more than simply making a lasting impression; 1987 marks the year of his fortieth anniversary as an instructor here on La Salle ' s campus. Mr. Swoyer ' s personal history with La Salle, however, extends back even fur- ther, back to 1934 when he entered La Salle as a seventh grade student. At that time, Benilde Academy was locat- ed on the grounds of La Salle, and so he continued through high school and some of college here as well. After World War II, Mr. Swoyer was employed by a local newspaper, a job which soon ended as the result of an extended strike. A friend, who was also a profes- sor at La Salle College, offered him a job as an economics instructor in the rapidly growing business school, and Swoyer accepted. I never thought of teaching until the job was offered to me, Swoyer ad- mits. He made the switch to marketing after the Korean War, which provided education to many under the G.I. bill which, in turn, caused a substantial in- crease in the enrollment of the business school. This expansion led to a shuffling in duties, and so Mr. Swoyer became one of the first marketing professors to teach at La Salle. I remember when the entire staff of the business school consisted of myself, Flubacher, Halpin, and Brother Francis, Mr. Swoyer re- calls. NOW look at our staff. We ' re a whole separate school and every- thing. His classroom antics and hi-jinx have their purpose. In his estimation, a good instructor is one who ... knows what he ' s talking about and is able to hold the attention of the student. You have to make the student interested in the topic; that ' s your job, Holding interest doesn ' t seem to be a problem with Swoyer ' s classes; rather, getting the students to let go of some topics is challenging. I get some students who come into my office, and maybe they ' re offended by something I ' ve said, or maybe they agree, but the thing is that they ' re thinking, they ' re in- terested in the topic. And the students do remember. Mr. Swoyer can relate a litany of names of former students who have returned to extol his teachings. Understanding that the field of marketing contains perhaps more than its fair share of shady deal- ings, Swoyer tries to imbue the stu- dent with recognition of these less- than-admirable qualities. I see all that garbage on TV, and it disgusts me, he states. His classes emphasize a more proper way for advertising, a method which would at once sell the product and not insult both product and con- sumer. Getting past the gruff exterior, he admits, is usually a challenge for the students who have made the journey to his office. Indeed, he has nothing but praise for the La Salle community, stat- ing that he feels it to be a highly under- rated school. I think we do a fabulous job in terms of both educating the stu- dents and preparing them for life. I just wish that the campus realized that La Salle is as good as it is. After forty years of service to. La Salle, some might argue that Mr. Swoyer now has his act down pat. I guess there ' s something of the frus- trated actor in me, he confesses, which might explain the earaches suf- fered by various marketing classes. Still, there is a certain amount of staying power to the man, an endurance which has grown along with La Salle. Advice for future marketing classes? At the risk of sounding, well, corny, take Mr. Swoyer. Why? Ask anyone who has had him, and they ' ll tell you; you ' ll re- member what was taught, and you ' ll use it. Just don ' t forget your earplugs. 56 Marketing Ms. Melinda German Biology i Bro.

This can ' t possibly be the office of . . . Are you Bert Strieb, the physics professor?! He may claim to be a physics profes- sor, but those who know him in his other roles may wonder. Bert Strieb is a man with serious interest in a bunch of sub- jects as varied as they come. He runs — sometimes twelve miles in a day. He loves music — contempo- rary, classical, and jazz are his favorites, and he is often downtown grooving to a live jazz performance. Strieb is a film freak and will discuss at length almost any director. His favorites appear to be foreign, including Indian director Jean Renoir, whose films, in a beautiful and simple way, deal with accepting peo- ple the way they are. Added to this, the man even cooks — he bakes his Physics — Plus a Whole Lot More! By Doree Sitkoff own bread, and can expertly put to- gether probably any Indian dish you can name (and certainly some you can ' t!). It ' s a very impressive, and far from complete list — but what about phys- ics, Bert? Well, Strieb shows his true col- ors when he speaks about one person who has had a great deal of influence on his life: Albert Einstein. Strieb empha- sizes his respect for Einstein and that whole generation of physicists who tried in their own way to bring peace to the world, especially after seeing the destruction their creation, the atomic bomb, had wrought. In this same spirit, Bert Strieb is involved in many activities of anti-war focus, including La Salle ' s Peace Group, and the La Salle Central America Study Project. All of his stu- dents are aware of how committed he is to being a part of this movement. With his bright eyes and slightly over- grown white mustache, Bert Strieb does remind one of AI- Bert Einstein as he lectures on the quirks of nature described by modern physics: If it doesn ' t blow your mind, you haven ' t really understood it! Truth to tell, Strieb is most inspiring when he talks physics; his incredible abilities as a teacher have attracted students of all majors — biol- ogy, English, accounting — to take an interest in the fascinating and chal- lenging, mind- opening aspects of the universe investigated by theoretical E n =(rn-?)h(jj n= 0.1,2, r,;. ? ft h ' TT physics. Inherently, his aim as a teacher is not only to provide the knowledge, but to get sutdents excited about what they are doing, so that they can become active participants.

Efroymson A stranger wandering through the corridors of Olney Hall might be a bit surprised to see a mathematics teach- er with arms outstretched hopping around in a classroom. The students in- side have been initiated into the world of Mr. Joseph McHugh, where such be- havior is not only normal, but welcome. This is the manner in which they can most easily visualize, for example, the normal line to a solid in three-dimen- sional space. Mr. McHugh is an educa- tor at La Salle who makes facts live in his classes. He is a paragon of enthusi- asm both within and outside of his pro- fession. The concepts that he most enjoys bringing to life are found in Advanced Calculus and Differential Equations, his two favorite courses. He justifies his ca- reer here by saying simply that he likes math and wants to tell everyone about it. It is the definitiveness of math- ematics that attracts him to the study. You don ' t have to go arguing up street and down alley. Mr. McHugh ' s interest in mathematics extends to extracurricular pursuits. He has written articles on topics in Elemen- tary Mathematics, including The Os- culating Spiral which recently ap- peared in Mathematics Magazine. He has lectured here at La Salle University on the mathematical allusions in Alice in Wonderland, which, as he puts it, just jump off the page. And he directs problem-solving sessions for the infa- mous Putnam Exam, a national math- ematics contest in which a good score consists of one out of twelve correct answers. Mr. McHugh ' s need for definitive- ness is evident in his other hobbies. He is currently teaching himself the Chi- nese language, a laborious process for a Westerner. Yet for McHugh, the difficulty is mitigated by the fact that the language strictly adheres to estab- lished rules of pronunciation and to fa- miliar modes of grammar. There is a quasi-mathematical logic to it. Mr. McHugh also takes pleasure in playing the piano and in building and repairing furniture, two interests which he has had the opportunity to unite re- cently. A harpsicord, now found in the Art Museum, was donated to the Uni- versity in less than perfect condition. Since nobody else could fix it, McHugh decided to try. Having successfully re- vived the Renaissance sound, he is now the campus harpsicord specialist. The harpsicord is the instrument used to accompany the Collegium Musi- cum, a campus singing group to which Joe McHugh belongs. (He is the bearded one in the back row whose head bobs up and down to the music.) An avid and talented tenor, he is also a member of his church choir. The right and wrong answers in mathematics have their analogues in the notes and rhythms of songs. And when the tenor section achieves perfection, the evi- dence lies in Joe McHugh ' s uncon- cealed grin. Jane Woods, the director of Collegium Musicum, remarks, If you don ' t get enthusiasm from Joe, you won ' t get it from anyone. Mr. Joseph McHugh 73 2 , P Political Science Dr. Robert J.

By Susan Kennedy Teaching is a familiar task; it ' s not easy, day after day, to present familiar material to students in a way that comes across as fresh and interesting, keeping them not only awake but aware for fifty minutes. One who has mastered this task is Dr. William Gros- nick. In his hands a class that may start out as a mandatory requirement often becomes a unique learning exper- ience. Fortunately for La Salle, Dr. Grosnick realized young that he wanted to teach. He always adhered to his deci- sion to teach, though the path he has followed to teach religion at La Salle is an interesting one. He began his under- graduate career at the University of Wisconsin as a math major during the Vietnam era. Like many young people at that time, Dr. Grosnick was deeply affected by the war. Examining his life and values in those changing times, Dr. Grosnick decided that for him, math was too abstract and lacking in hu- man significance. B ff HHp ' 1 b % 1 I K Dr. William Grosnick He switched to the study of com- parative literature, graduated and proceeded to the University of Chica- go Divinity School, greatly influenced by Martin Buber ' s land Thou. It was here that William Grosnick made his state- ment about the war, declaring himself a conscientious objector. After a neg- ative decision by the draft board con- cerning his c.o. request, he appealed and was officially awarded his c.o. sta- tus. Leaving school, he started his alter- native service working as a hospital maintenance man. At this time he be- came interested in Buddhism through conversations with another c.o. He re- turned to Wisconsin at the end of his service and took a job selling life insur- ance. Though he was successful at the job, he knew it was only temporary and. soon began doctoral work in the Uni- versity of Wisconsin ' s Buddhist studies program. Upon completion of his dis- sertation at Tokyo University, he re- turned to the United States and started teaching at La Salle, where he has been for the last seven years. When not teaching, Dr. Grosnick spends a lot of his free time playing tournament bridge where he has achieved the rank of Life Master by amassing the necessary points through tournament play. He also busies himself by fixing things around the house and by running. The latter pasttime he shrugs off with his ususal self-deprecat- ing humor saying you can write that you can ' t tell by looking at him, but- he runs. His involvement with politics, which started during the sixties, continues to this day. He devotes time to the politi- cal system by working as a Democratic committeeman in his district, a minority position in a largely Republican com- munity. During the summer, he also tries his hand at scholarly research. At the end of each summer, however, he looks forward to returning to teaching and the gratifying work of interacting with students. 78 Religion Bro.

If the name is not familiar to you, it is most likely because the nursing offices are hidden away on the mezzanine level in Wister Hall. A nurse, a teacher, an ad- ministrator, a writer, and an editor, Dr. Donnelly is the pride of La Salle ' s De- partment of Nursing. La Salle ' s RN BSN program, well known in its field, offers advanced courses to Registered Nurses, emphasizing holistic health the- ories and practices. Dr. Donnelly, whose field is psychiatric nursing, has written several books emphasizing the theory and practice of nursing asser- tiveness. (All four of her books are available in the David Leo Lawrence Memorial Library.) She has conducted assertiveness and stress-management workshops here in the United States and in Canada, and has lectured on this topic locally at both La Salle and Germantown Hospital. Currently Dr. Donnelly is working on a coauthored core nursing textbook for Saunders Publishing that will be one of the five major texts in its field available in Amer- ica. Presently she also edits the interna- tional journal Holistic Nursing Practice. But what is Gloria Donnelly the person like? I am a very down-to-earth per- son, she says. Reflective of this is Dr. Donnelly ' s speech and prose, which are direct and straightforward. In the classroom, this attitude also predomi- nates, as Donnelly never simply lec- tures or follows a text, but allows plenty of time for discussion. As some ninety percent of the nursing students work full or part time in addition to studying, discussions are often in response to practical problems the nurses may en- counter at work. Her book, RN ' s Survival Sourcebook: Coping with Stress, shows Donnelly ' s deep understanding of an immense range of problems and situa- tions that nurses encounter, and the author ' s strong sense of humor. Even people outside the nursing profession can both enjoy and benefit from Don- nelly ' s tips on dealing with stress, such as her illustrated advice on how to d eal creatively with a tirade from a chron- ically irate supervisor (such as Ms. War- horse). To imagine a humorous redefini- tion of certain facial features, or to vi- sualize embarrassing forgetfulness on her part in dressing are two of the sug- gestions. Among other things, this small example shows the author ' s ability to combine playfulness and sound practi- cal advice, just one more skill that, along with professional talent and knowledge, has served to rank Dr. Don- nelly as one of La Salle ' s most success- ful and prestigious teachers. With all she does, however, Dr. Don- nelly still has time for her students. She is now serving as senior consular for the Nursing Honor Society, which she is as- sisting in its application to become a chapter of the International Nursing Honor Society, Sigma Theta Tau. Suc- cess has certainly not made Dr. Gloria Donnelly aloof, for her heavy adminis- trative workload — due to the fact that the nursing department must meet both La Salle ' s standards and those of the National League for Nurs- ing — has as a component the periodic answering of the department phone. Evidently no task is too small or too large for Gloria Donnelly. Dr. Gloria Donnelly, Chairperson Evening Division ACCOUNTING R. Michael Dummer Robert Miedel James A.

Machado Ellen Starer Student Life y «r Want to Ponce, Then Dance By John Convoy Along with the construction of new tennis courts and the foundation for a new library, another project that resulted from La Salle ' s Campaign for the Eighties was the newly reconstructed Union snack bar. Transformed from a typical college cafeteria , the old snack bar has been changed in nearly every aspect. Within the snack bar boundaries there are now two institutions. The restaurant, tenatively known as Food on a Whim, has an entirely new menu offering such delicacies as chicken wings, stir-fried vegetables, pan pizza, and barbequed ribs. A salad bar has been added that rivals the one in the main cafeteria. For those students seeking dessert, an ice cream bar has been added. The night club, called Backstage, features a full-length dance floor, a disc jockey ' s booth, a state-of-the-art stereo system, a 7-foot wide TV screen, and a fully equipped stage. The reaction of the student body was overwhelmingly positive. While the construction of a new college cafe was viewed as something long overdue, the creation of Backstage surpassed everyone ' s expectations. The task of remodeling the old snack bar was first delegated to Steve Greb in 1984 when he accepted the position of Director of Food Services. A committee, chaired by Greb and composed of representatives from the Food Service, Student Life, Resident Life, and CEW offices, drew up a list of criteria which they presented to the architectural firm of Bartley, Browstein, Long, and Mirenda. This particular firm, a major force behind the recent Restaurant Renaissance in Philadelphia, has been responsible for such other projects as the 16th Street t t t Bar and Grill, Eden, Frog, Hard Rock Cafe (in New York), and Bandstand. One of the main reasons for the creation of this new facility was, in the words of Greb, to give the students new life blood. Since the enforcement of the new alcohol policy began, the administration has felt obligated to give something back to the students. They realized that, as the university continues to grow and expand, the social needs and desires of the student body must not be forgotten. A Yearbook Editorial on the Institution of the New Alcohol Policy The following is an excerpt from an article by Trish Troilo which appeared in the October 1 issue of the Collegian. It outlines the infamous new alcohol policy adopted by La Salle this past year, The policy is as follows: A student of legal age may consume alcohol on campus as long as such consumption does not interfere with the rights and privileges of other community members. The policy goes on to state that students of legal drinking age are permitted to drink in the privacy of their residence hall rooms, apartments, or at registered events. The primary rule of thumb to remember is that no one under the age of twenty- one is permitted to consume alcohol on campus for any reason. For the students who are twenty-one and older, the guidelines of the new policy must be adhered to. The policy is not difficult to understand. If the student is twenty- one or over, the policy ' s rules are as follows: 1) Doors must be kept closed, since an open door causes a room to be considered a public place; 2) All guests and residents consuming alcohol must be of legal age; 3) The number of residents and guests may not exceed eight in a residence hall room and twelve in an apartment or house; 4) Residents are responsible and will be held accountable for the behavior of their guests; 5) Kegs, beer balls, and grain alcohol are not permitted. If said items are observed, they will be confiscated and the students subject to disciplinary action. The disciplinary actions vary from the first and second offense and vary among the offenses. The most drastic penalty is for the possession of grain alcohol. There is a fifty dollar fine and specific probation for this offense. All information in the policy is outlined in a pamphlet entitled, Individual consumption, and is available to all campus students from either the resident life office or the student life office. Some La Salle students enjoy Octoberfest before the days of Prohibition. The policy has changed the practices of all organizations that sponsor parties, and has presented major obstacles to the drinking habits of individual students. More important, however, is that the policy now complies with State Law, and, therefore, that the University ' s liability is greatly reduced. While almost everyone conceeds that the policy is in the school ' s best interest, not everyone agrees on the fairness of the r ules La Salle has imposed in addition to the State Laws. For example, some students over twenty-one are indignant over Resident Life ' s stipulations about how, what, where, and with whom they can drink legally. Other rules, such as the cans only law, have sparked such comments as Was the ' cans only ' law inducted because of the many well- known bottle-related deaths in the North Dorms Complex, or because they ' re phallic symbols? Beyond the theoretical debates and controversey, however, are the resident assistants and directors who deal with the day to day problems of enforcing the policy. While their task is difficult, and sometimes very unpleasant, most RA ' s have taken a positive approach to the situation. Chris Adams, RA on first floor Katherine ' s, believes that despite the dissention the new policy has caused, La Salle was, is, and always will be a solid community. He says that La Salle is able to survive change through belief in its own strength and resiliency.

O ' Brien Bob Mullen, first-year athletic director at La Salle, needed only a split second to answer the question: How have you enjoyea your stay thus far? Very much, said Mullen, both of his duties as director and of his relationship with other administrators. This is a first-class organization with an eye toward the future. The transition has been fine because of the excellent people with whom I ' m involved. I ' m glad to be here. After compiling impressive credentials as athletic airector at Loras College ana Southern Coloraao University, Mullen traveled all the way to Philadelphia to accept a challenge — to help La Salle regain national recognition. When former director Bill Braashaw packed his bags and departea for DePaul University, many assumed that the new AD would be someone with a aegree from La Salle, or with some Big Five ties. Everyone thought that the search committee would stick by an easy rule of thumb: select a candidate from within the family. Instead, however, La Salle reached way beyond 20th Street and Olney Avenue to Southern Colorado where they found Bob Mullen, a man eager to answer the committee ' s call. Ironically, Mullen spent his early childhood in Delaware County. When his father was forced to relocate with his company, the Mullens moved to Chicago, Illinois, where Bob attended grade ana high school, and earnea his bachelor ' s and master ' s aegrees from Northern Illinois University. He then coachea basketball at Chicago Catholic High School. After more than ten years of coaching basketball on the high school level, Mullen acceptea a position as athletic airector at Loras College, locatea in Dubique, Iowa. Loras, whose enrollment is approximately 2000 stuPents, won the NAIA men ' s basketball championship while Mullen was at the wheel. In effect on other small universities who have recently instituted Division III football. If it looks as if it couia benefit the La Salle University campus and students, then we will take a closer look. At present, it is at the very initial stages. After Loras, Mullen landed the athletic airector ' s job at Pueblo ' s University of Southern Colorado, a school with an enrollment of 5000 students. When he got word of Bradshaw ' s sudden departure in the summer of 1986, however, he did not hesitate. He cut addition, Mullen reestablished the football program, an accomplishment many La Salle stuaents would like to see him repeat here. Mullen hedged when asked if he plans to reinstate football at La Salle at the Division III level. We have not totally aiscarded the idea, but there are many people here . . . who are opposed to such a program, he explained. But we are studying its short his stay at the Goodwill Summer Games in Moscow, where he servea as an administrator, and hopped the next plane to Philadelphia. Mullen was well aware of the Big Five tradition before arriving on the Philadelphia scene. Obviously, the Big Five has an excellent basketball tradition, said Mullen, who was a track star in high school. Although Temple and Villanova showea interest in leaving the nest, Penn, La Salle, and St. Joe ' s fought for a ten- year agreement that keeps intact the Big Five schedule. Although the situation was resolved before Mullen came to La Salle on August 12, he regrets that basketball has become big-money dominated. He realizes, however, that the best way for Temple and Villanova to receive an NCAA Tournament bid is to win the conference title, and or to face more nationally known teams. Mullen turned to the auestion of La Salle ' s chances of receiving one of the sixty-four bids. The MAAC conference is likely to send only one team to the tournament, he said. Therefore we plan on winning it. Rather, we expect to win the tournament. In terms of exposure for La Salle, the basketball program receives the most national recognition. Obviously, we are going to do the utmost to excel in that program. In addition, there are the financial benefits of making the NCAA Tournament. Right now, it is our top priority. We want to see where the basketball team is in . three years, he said optimistically. We want to be the odds-on favorite to win the conference and receive the NCAA bid that goes with it. We want to be the new power in the MAAC. Mullen was auick to point out that he is equally concerned with the other sports programs at La Salle. I administrate over all twenty-three sports. My job is to make sure that each Homecoming: 1990 and every program is run as well as possible. Does he miss the coaching part of the business? The first year it really hurt, he admitted. But I still get emotionally involved in the games. The adrenaline still flows. The only part I don ' t miss is the recruiting and traveling, he jokingly added. Even if everything was going right at Southern Colorado, he said, I still would have come to La Salle. There is no question about it. I ' ve been connected with basketball and athletics all my life. The idea of going to a Division 1 school in the Big Five was too big to pass up. I enjoy the family atmosphere of a small Catholic university, Mullen said. You feel like you are a member of a close-knit family in which everyone cares about the others. I ' m feeling right at home at La Salle. By Bruce A. Brien It certainly doesn ' t seem like three and a half years since I graduated from La Salle, but I guess it has been. Homecoming has really changed since it was introduced back in 1985. What? You haven ' t come back since graduation three years ago! You ' ve really missed a lot of changes. The days of a few sporting events, accompanied by one ceremonial dinner and a few hundred spectators are over. La Salle ' s homecoming weekend is fast becoming a major tradition around here. Last year about four thousand people showed up for the weekend, mostly alumni! McCarthy Stadium was filled to capacity for the Explorers vs. Villanova soccer game. No, you did not have to get here that early; the game is played at 3 o ' clock now and has become the highlight of the afternoon! Aren ' t you sorry now that you didn ' t come back. Well La Salle and Big Five rival Temple collide at the Palestra. don ' t feel too bad; this year should be even better than ever. They are expecting almost seven thousand people to turn out. What?!? You can ' t be that uninformed, well I ' ll fill you in on the weekend. The weekend starts Friday night now, as it should. For the alumni, there is a fantastic welcoming reception at the Adam ' s Mark hotel; you should stay there next year, For the students, there is an outdoor concert at Good Shepherd featuring three local bands and a huge bonfire. It begins with a pep rally for all of the teams that will play this weekend. Saturday ' s activities begin with a 10 A.M. tailgate party and picnic at Good Shepherd. At noon there is a Cross Country meet featuring men ' s and women ' s races and a host of teams from around the country. There is also an exhibition baseball game with Temple that begins at noon. These events will be followed by the day ' s featured events, a soccer game at McCarthy Stadium and a women ' s field hockey game right next door. Saturday evening includes the usual weekend events for students such as a band at Backstage , a resident life party, and a Masque production that also attracts many alumni. Earlier in the evening, the faculty and alumni enjoy the President ' s banquet in the Union Ballroom. Homecoming Weekend closes on Sunday with the La Salle Carnival Fair where student groups compete in different activities such as obstacle courses, tug-o- wars, and a competitive fundraiser. Groups are awarded points for victories and an overall winner is chosen at the end of the day. There are many booths and activities arranged around campus for guests to enjoy. The grand finale takes place at McCarthy Stadium where there is a concert given by a national recording artist; this year ' s guest will be Tommy Conwell and the Young Rumblers . Well, I guess the Welcoming Reception is going to start, so we had better go inside before it gets too crowded. Don ' t forget to spread the word to other alumni that you see during the next year; but most of all, enjoy La Salle ' s greatest new tradition. The Explorer staff appreciates the tremendous effort in establishing Homecoming Weekend in 1986 and hopes this tradition will be continued and expanded in the future. fTlen ' s Soccer Jake Morris. Joe Toner, and Mike Curley celebrate after a goal. Wilkinson Announces Retirement After 14 Years The Class of 1987 witnessed the end of an era in La Salle soccer history. Sen- iors Mark Melvin, Bob Wagner, Jake Morris, Mike Dennis, Pat Flood, and Bob- by Brill were being dunked ceremo- niously in the muddied remains of Fair- field University ' s soccer field after a 1-0 victory over the home team. They were well aware that this comedical romp through a miserably cold and wet November Saturday marked their last match as La Salle Explorers. While both celebrating and lamenting the end of their largely successful careers, they were beckoned together along with their teammates by coach Bill Wilkin- son, a fixture on the La Salle campus for the past seventeen years. It was then that Wilkie shocked them with the announcement that he was hanging up his whistle for the last time. It was the perfect ending to what had been a bittersweet season for the soccer varsity. East Coast Conference champions for the first time in 1982, and Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference champs every year since La Salle ' s en- trance in 1983, our kickers finally relin- quished their reign over MAAC oppo- nents. They still finished with a very re- spectable 5-2 MAAC record, good for third place in the conference and 10-7- 2 overall. This included a 2-2-2 mark against the extremely competitive Philadelphia Soccer Seven schools. Autumn of 1986 saw the continued development of several key veterans on the Explorer squad as well as the emergence of some bright, new tal- ents. Co-captains Brill and Melvin distin- guished themselves as halfback Brill was named to the MAAC All-Aca- demic Soccer Team, and goalkeeper Melvin earned a spot on the MAAC All- Conference Second Team for the sec- ond straight year after making the First Team in his sophomore year. Junior sweeper-back Steve Friend was named to the MAAC ' s First Team, and, along with Melvin, was named to the Metropolitan Life Classic All-Tourna- ment Team, in which La Salle met na- tionally-ranked Old Dominion University and William and Mary. Sophomore Ter- ry White was also named to the MAAC ' s Second Team of halfbacks. Midfielder Mike Conners and stop- per-back Bob Wilkinson dominated just about every game they stepped into, and Jim Boyer and Chris Kelly continued their reliable ways in the backfield. Newcomer Mike Bradby led the team in scoring, while his twin brother Bobby showed the potential to be just as po- tent an offensive force. Sophomore Ed Carboy, a forced redshirt last year, was the surprise of the year as he became a rock-solid fullback. Wagner, another MAAC All-Academic selection, filled the nets capably when called upon, and freshman Paul Centofanti showed promise as the goalie of the future. For- ward Morris continued his ball handling wizardry, Flood displayed his custom- ary level-headedness in midfield, and Dennis provided speed up on the front line when needed. Though the season opened with a win over Villanova and a strong losing effort against nationally-ranked Fair- leigh Dickinson, a total defensive col- lapse against Drexel foreshadowed the inconsistency that was to follow. Textile, a perennial contender for the MAAC Top Ten, walked away happy with a tie, and Lehigh was sent down to defeat. The Explorers held their own in tough losses to powerhouses Old Do- minion and William and Mary on the Vir- ginia swing, and returned home to up- set undefeated Seton Hall, then num- Per eight in the country. A 1-0 setPack Py Temple and a 2-1 loss to Fordham, the eventual MAAC champion, were Poth lackluster performances Py La Salle. After a tough 2-2 tie with Penn and a 3-0 Plowout over Holy Cross, the Explor- ers readied themselves for a pivotal showdown against the Army Black Knights. Just as in the past three years, La Salle had to come to grips with a do- or-die situation to remain in competi- tion for the MAAC title. A grueling nine- ty minute struggle seemed worthwhile when White notched the only goal of the game in the closing minutes. How- ever, Army rallied for a score just be- fore time ran out, and went on to win 2- 1 in overtime. Lady Luck had finally abandoned the Explorers after four ter- rific years in her favor. The La Salle eleven went on to cap- ture their final five contests, Put it was a case of too little, too late. Still, it was a fine way to send off Wilkinson, who compiled a 142-97-29 record and four- teen campaigns at .500 or over for what had been a losing cause before his hiring in 1969. If the Explorers get the production expected from standout forwards Joe Toner and Jackie Wom- bough, injury-free years for Chris Vaughan, Rey Jiminez, and muscle- bound Chuck Kling, and continued de- velopment by the Bradby brothers, there is no reason why new head coach Pat Farrell, who has been assis- tant coach here for eleven years, shouldn ' t continue such winning ways. Though our booters are happy to be under Farrell ' s guidance, Wilkie ' s devo- tion, strategic mastery, and good hu- mor on long trips up and down the turn- pike will Pe missed. And rememPered.

Under the direction of head coach Betty Ann Kempf and assistant coach Cheryl Vasta, La Salle ' s team provides a much needed second choice for area play- ers who want to play Division I soccer; presently, Villanova is the only other school with Division I soccer for women. Former girls ' coach at Cardinal Dou- gherty High School and a participant in various Philadelphia clubs since grade school, Kempf was appointed in Au- gust, 1986. The late start left little time for composing a schedule, and less time for recruiting. Consequently, the 1986 team did not have the depth that a more established program might show. Although the booters ' first sea- son was not a success on the score- board, it does reflect how much the team improved over the course of Kicks three months. Excluding the final two games, the defense went from allow- ing thirteen goals in a game to just three. Solid performances from right full- back Toni D ' Alessandro and halfback Shelly Smith bolstered the backfield, while the front line ' s most consistent player was forward Lisa Boccuti. Assistant coach Vasta says the team is enthusiastic about next season. The schedule is expanded to eighteen games, including more Division I teams from outside the area. In addition, ten area high school players have already contacted coach Kempf and decided to come to La Salle. Their experience will make La Salle more well-rounded, and certainly, more competitive. Women ' s soccer is here, and warming up for a great 1987 season. Forward Michele DiFilippo takes the ball downfield.

New Tennis Courts are Christened with a Victory By Peggy Seydow The women ' s tennis team christened La Salle ' s new courts with a season- opening victory over Eastern College. Their strong play at home continued with powerful victories over Chestnut Hill, Rider, and Textile; during this string they sustained just one defeat, a hard- fought 5-4 loss to Rosemont College. Although they ended the season with a 5-5 record and a fifth place finish in MAAC competition, the year was an improvement over 1985, when they lost to both Chestnut Hill and Textile. Jeff Marmon, in his seventh season as coach of both the women ' s and men ' s teams, attributes at least part of La Salle ' s success to the new format they adopted after the Eastern match. In- stead of playing three singles and two doubles matches, La Salle began play- ing with the six-three lineup used in MAAC competition. Sophomore Jill In- gandela was strong in the number one spot, as was freshman Kim Saab at number three, but it was freshman sen- sation Jill Weigner who stabilized the top of the lineup with her consistently excellent play at number two singles. Ceil Campbell, a senior who also plays varsity softball for La Salle, and senior co-captain Peggy Seydow each com- piled winning records in the number four and five positions, and senior co- captain Kerri McGinley turned in her usual dependable performance at number six. In doubles, Coach Marmon paired Saab with Weigner, Campbell with Ingandela, and freshman Jennifer Vandermolen with Seydow. Sopho- more Meena Kumar and freshmen Elaine Marley and Renee Wilson filled in at doubles, and played several exhibi- tion singles matches. Although he would have preferred to have more experience at the top of the order. Coach Marmon lauded the efforts of the underclassmen, and was pleasantly surprised by the singles play of his three seniors. Overall, he was pleased with the performance of this predominantly young team, and plans to improve this year ' s .500 record.

Ending on a Positive Note By Ed Skorpinski In what can best be described as an average season, the 1986 edition of the Men ' s Cross Country team enjoyed good times as well as endured less memorable ones. By the end of the season, five runners had five of the ten best times ever at Belmont Plateau for La Salle, and one member of the team, sophomore John Schwab, came ever so close to qualifying for the IC4A Na- tionals. Along with Schwab, junior Matt Cos- tello, junior Bill Selgrath, freshman Bill Donovan, and sophomore Paul Sauva- geau completed record-setting runs at Belmont this year. In fact, none of La Salle ' s top seven runners were seniors, an acknowledgement of the youthful- ness of the men ' s team. The season began innocently enough with a split in a double dual meet with Kutztown and East Strouds- burg. The following week, Schwab and Costello led the Explorers to a sweep over Brown, Fordham, and Philadelphia Textile. Then, despite a third place finish by Schwab on September 27, La Salle was swept by four other teams at Le- high. In the MAAC Championships at Van Cortland P ark in New York City, the men ' s team endured a third place finish behind Army and lona, La Salle ' s worst showing since they joined the confer- ence. During Homecoming Weekend, the Explorers competed in the first cross country meet on campus in re- cent years. Navy, Georgetown, Rutgers, and Syracuse, all major pow- ers in the East, overwhelmed the home team, as Costello turned in the only top-ten finish. Then, just when things seemed to hit a season-low at the Paul Short Memorial and the Big 5 Cham- pionship, the Explorers rebounded with an astounding first place victory at the CTC Championship ahead of twenty other schools. Among these were lona, who fin- ished second. Despite everything else that happened, this event left the team with a positive attitude on the past season and an encouraging out- look for the next one.

Women ' s Cross Country Schwind and Broderick Lead the Pack By Judy Ring Coach Brother Jerome Benway had enrolled the Women ' s Cross Country Team in a two-week camp before the start of school as preparation for a challenging season. Although the Ex- plorers did not better last year ' s fifth place finish in the MAAC Champion- ships, they did reap the benefits of their training with many outstanding individ- ual performances. In the first meet of the season, the team outran both East Stroudsburg and Kutztown, and sophomore Drea Schwind set a school record for the 3. 1 mile Belmont Plateau course with a time of 18:06. Next came two close losses to Delaware and St. Joe ' s, fol- lowed by a win over Mt. Saint Mary ' s, and a final loss to Syracuse. Leading the lady harriers throughout the season were sophomores Drea Schwind, Bernadette Mulligan, and Verlinda Taurino, along with freshmen Elissa Broderick and Heather Shields. Al- though the team did not fare well at the Big Five Championship on October 18, Elissa Broderick ran the Belmont course in 17:43, breaking Schwind ' s re- cord of September. Another highlight of the season was the Collegiate Track Conference Championship Meet on November 2. Of fourteen teams, La Salle placed a respectable sixth. Showings such as this, along with strong individual out- ings, promise a winning season for a team who ' ll be coming into its own in Opp. 23 East Stroudsburg 32 27 Kutztown 28 30 Delaware 27 34 St. Joseph ' s 23 27 Mount St. Mary ' s 29 7th Trenton State Invitational 5th MAAC Championship 37 Syracuse 22 15th Paul Short Memorial 4th Big 5 Championship 6th CTC Championship ECAC Championship Elissa Broderick ran a 17:43 Belmont course Roster: Andrea Schwind (Captain), Betsy Baker, Elissa Broderick, Gretchen Heebner, Beth Leneweaver, Bernadette Mulligan, Patty Oehlbeck, Judy Ring, Heather Shields, Verlinda Taurino.

Stolen Van Caps off a Frustrating Season By Patty Fallon The Field Hockey Team looked for- ward to the 1986 season, predicting it to be one of their finest in a long time. The team was confident in its second- year coach. Donna Partin, who instilled in them a positive attitude and led them in several strong outings against nationally-ranked teams last season. The Explorers also saw the healthy re- turn of some key players who exper- ienced an injury-filled season last year. The team was in good shape after in- tense summer workouts; what could go wrong? Unfortunately, the outlook on the season could not be matched by the outcome. The Explorers finished at a disappointing 8-12. It was a frustrating season for La Salle, which included sev- eral games against nationally ranked teams. Despite solid, competitive play in all but one showing, the team could not come out ahead. The defense was strong, but the offense couldn ' t click; inexperience was the main culprit. Toward the end of the season, con- ditions worsened. After a game at Duke, the team van, along with all its contents, was stolen. This left the team stranded in Virginia, and upon their re- turn, to face their opponents without practice. The girls never quite got back on their feet after that incident, and ended up losing the remaining three games. The 1986 season did, however, have its bright spots. The Explorers ' biggest victory came on Homecoming Day against Big Five rival Villanova. It was a tough game but La Salle triumphed, coming from behind to win 2-1. An- other highlight was the emergence of senior goalie Donna Vitorelli. After be- ing sidelined last season with a presea- son injury. Donna earned the honor of Honorable Mention All-American in her first year of starting. The keys to next season will be a stronger offense, and a new coach, for Partin announced her resignation at the end of the season. Her positive atti- tude remains, however, and around this the team is building a solid nucleus which will, hopefully, uphold the opti- mistic predictions that are already be- ing made about next season.

After a sluggish start, in which they won only one of their first seven matches, the Explorers battled back over the course of the next sixteen contests, compiling an 8-8 record. An example of the spirit of persever- ence and determination that was the trademark of this year ' s team is the match against West Chester. After los- ing the first two games, and almost los- ing the third as well, the girls came back from a 7- 14 score to win the third game in overtime, 17-15. They went on to win the match with fourth and fifth games scores of 15-11 and 15-8. The second half of the season was even more impressive. The team tri- umphed in eleven of their next four- teen matches, winning seven in a row at one point. Above all else, this sea- son was truly a team effort. This was a more well-rounded team than any I have played on at La Salle, said senior Rose Whalen, captain and four-year starter, Among the notable performers for La Salle this year were: senior Vicki Missar who led the team in kills and was named to the All-Tournament Teams at the Big Five Tournament, the West Chester Tournament, and the MAAC Championship Tournament; freshman Gina Jakubauskas who in her first year performed outstandingly as the team setter; senior Joanne Patton who was named to the NCAA District II Volleyball Academic Ail-American Team, a first for a La Salle player; and the sparkling play of Whalen, Sue Canfield, Gayle Gumkowski, and Aileen O ' Brien. Under head coach Geri Weiner and assistant coach Denise Franchetti, La Salle placed third in the MAAC Tourna- ment behind the formidable Army and Holy Cross.

During the 1986-87 season, the Explorers powered themselves to an amazing 14-3 record, the best year the team has ever had. Even more astounding was the fact that only one member of the squad, Co-Captain Mike Animal Stoughton, was a senior. Through good recruiting and even better coaching, Tom Murt had brought together the makings of a wrestling dynasty. Several individual performances are worth recognizing, most notably Co- Captain Chris Schubert ' s 19-1 record with only a few matches left in the sea- son. While Co-Captains Chris Sparky Mars and Tony Massetti enjoyed strong seasons, freshman Greg Connors, wrestling at 118, seemed to pin just LA SALLE WRESTLING Standing: Tom Murt, George Scaglia.

Stoughton, wres- tling anywhere between the tough 177 and HWT classes, suffered only four losses all year. In fact, to be truly fair and mention all of the people having a good year, one would have to men- tion everyone. It is no wonder then that only Kings, Swarthmore and Ursinus were able to beat them in match play, while the Explorers placed third, first, and tenth in the Explorer Invitational, Juniata Invitational, and Lebanon Val- ley Tournaments, respectively. All three of the contests placed La Salle ' s grapplers against some of toughest competition in the area. What was the secret to Coach Murt ' s success? Four tough practices a week was the answer, followed by wrestle-offs between team members to decide who would represent La Salle during the next match. Explorers who wanted to wrestle varsity every week put even more of their own time into workouts on the track and in the weightroom. Unlike other sports, no scholarship money is granted for wrestling; all of the team members are there because they like to wrestle. According to Mars, wrestling is a unique sport in that it de- cides irrevocably who ' s the best in one-on-one competition. While it is a team sport, when you ' re out on the mat you control your own destiny. Because of the team ' s success, fan support this past season was better than in previous years, but there is still room for improvement. There is no doubt that if the team continues its winning ways, UHF networks had better look out.

Women ' s Swim- ming Off to a Slow Start In what was a disappointing season as of January, the Women ' s Swimming Team had won only three of their first ten meets. Their victories came against Notre Dame (110-107), Villanova (88- 52), and Lehigh (157-107). Yet, a closer look at the results reveals competitive La Salle swimming; Boston University won by only fourteen points, and Ford- ham and Bloomsburg by only thirteen each. Last year ' s highest-point scorer Barb Leutner (200m and 500m freestyle) continues to do well, as do junior Kim Long (1000m and 500m freestyle, and individual medley) and sophomore Donna Gerhardt (breaststroke). Coach Lyons ' team is young, (Val Selser is the only senior), and with the continued development of the five freshmen, four sophomores, and four juniors, the Women ' s Swimming Team will be a strong contender in the MAAC for years to come.

Staying Afloat in the MAAC By Tim Patten i i i i i i Under coach John Lyons, the Men ' s Swimming Team has won seven titles in as many years. 1987 appears to be no exception as the men have won seven of their first eight meets, including im- pressive wins over West Virginia and Villanova. Their only loss came in their first meet, against Maryland, with a score of 54-28. Leading the team have been fresh- man Jeff Gershe and senior Steve Wil- liams. As of January, Gershe was un- beaten in both the 500 and 1000 frees- tyle. In the 200 butterfly, Williams was unbeaten as well. Other scorers include senior Chris Cummings, an all-East swimmer in the individual medley for the last two years, and freshmen Mark Sermarini and Mike Travers. Rounding out the team are seniors Chris Loughlin and Joe Weindorfer, and sophomore Dan Ebel. Of special note is diver John Madden, who has aualified for this year ' s NCAA Championships in Austin, Texas in April. A semester break training period in Miami has helped the team prepare for their three remaining meets against Bucknell, Penn State, and Harvard, and, of course, the highlights of their season: the MAAC, NCAA, and Eastern Seaboard Championships. The men are expected to continue their winning tradition and bring yet another title. Xisr, Steve Williams models the Explorers ' new travelling outfit. ?SJgfry ' .

La Salle Competes in Title Game for the First Time in Over Thirty Years By Ed Skorpinski The 1986-87 edition of Explorer Bas- ketball has to be broken into two dis- tinct seasons. The first ended as an- other one of those couia have been seasons with an opening round loss to Fairfield in the MAAC Championships. The seconp, however, began on March 12 with an first round National Invitational Tournament victory over Villanova at the DuPont Pavilon and continued until the championship game versus Southern Mississippi. Al- though they lost in their final game against tough USM outside shooting, La Salle reignited the winning spirit that has been dormant at 20th and Olney since the days of Tom Gola. Led by their new coach Bill Speedy Morris, the Explorers showea that La Salle bas- ketball is back and will be worth watch- ing in future years. During the regular season, the Explor- ers faced a tough scheaule that includ- ed four of the country ' s top teams, namely Temple, North Carolina (rankea No. 1 in the nation at the time), DePaul, ana Notre Dame (who had just beaten No. 1 North Carolina during their previous game), In all four games, La Salle took an early lead, only to let it escape their grasp during the last few minutes. Nevertheless, the team earned respect, and the Palestra be- came a corner that visiting teams feared. In MAAC play, the Explorers would slowly rise to the top throughout the season, beating every team in the conference at least once before en- tering the MAAC Championship tour- nament at the Meaaowlanas. The reasons for La Salle ' s success in- cluded both individual and team per- formances. Highly recruited freshman forward Lionel Simmons, named to the Freshman All-American team, led all NCAA freshemn in scoring ana re- bounas, in aadition to leading the team in scoring, rebounas, steals, and blockea shots. Senior captain Larry Kor- etz, at forward, who led the team in three-point goals, finished his college career having started every game. Having scored a season high 32 points against Eastern Kentucky, junior guara forward Tim Legler finished sec- ond on the La Salle scoring list. The oth- er two starters, sophomore center for- ward Craig Conlin ana junior guard Rich Tarr enjoyed fine seasons, with Tarr dishing out a record 189 assists. The first two men off the bench were senior guara Gary Jones and senior center Ron Barnes, who was second on the team in blocked shots. Freshman for- ward Bob Johnson, junior forward Ken Palczewski, sophomore guard Len Rob- inson, .junior center Eric Lee and sopho- more Marvin Woods saw more limited playing time. Lee was also injured dur- ing the fifth game of the season and never returned. As a team, La Salle provided a bal- anced attack that stymied opposing teams. Unlike previous years, in which the offense centerea around one or two players, the Explorers ' four-to- score offense was tough to defend against. Koretz, Legler, and Simmons took turns as game high-scorer, and nearly every game had at least four players in double figures. The only in- gredient the Explorer game plan lacked was a strong inside game. Al- though the team possessed very tal- ented perimeter shooters, the ab- sence of a dominant center cost La Salle the edge in a number of games. Especially near the end of the second half, after opposing defenses adjusted to the perimeter offense, even the La Salle ' s best shooters lost their effective- ness, As mentioned earlier, this was Speedy Morris ' first year at the helm, taking over from departed head coach Lefty Ervin. Previously, Morris had been the successful coach of La Salle ' s Women ' s Basketball team and a long- time high school coach at Roman Catholic. It was Morris ' reputation that help convince Simmons to come to La Salle, and there is no doubt that it will help in future recruiting as well. As Rich Tarr remarked, Speedy tried to take the pressure off of the players (that the rest of the campus placed on them) . . . he made us feel confident that we could beat any team, even the big schools like North Carolina and DePaul. Entering the MAAC Championships, La Salle was the clear favorite, but ev- eryone knew from past experience that there are no guarantees. After the opening loss to Fairfield, most people wrote off the season as typical , re- ferring to the Explorers ' finish in recent seasons. A surprise bia in the NIT, how- ever, gave La Salle a second life and they made the most of it. Following the 86-84 win over Villanova, the Explorers beat Niagara 89-81 in Buffalo, destor- yed Illinois State, 70-50, at the Palestra before 5,000 screaming fans, ana blew out Arkansas-Littl Rock, 92-73, in the NIT semifinals at Madison Sguare Garaen. In the finals of a major post-season tournament for the first time in over thir- ty years, the Explorers sent the campus into a frenzy. Thirty busses, carrying blue and gold-claa students, faculty, alumni and friends, made the trip to New York City for the big game. With La Salle ' s perimeter shots miss- ing the mark in the first half, USM ' s three-pointers put the Explorers down by as many as ten early. By halftime, though, the team was able to climb back to within five points, 39-34. In the seconp half, La Salle managea to tie the game at 43-43, but the Golden Ea- gles ' would again extend their lead to over ten points midway through the half. With less than a minute left, USM led by eight, 82-74. Then, a Simmons tip, a Jones steal, two Tarr foul shots, a Conlin basket and a USM five-second violation put the Explorers within two, 82-80, ana gave them the ball with only fifteen seconas left. The miracle come- back would not continue, however, as USM forced a turnover with a tight de- fense ana maae two foul shots to ice the game. One more basket would have been super, but no one can really be upset over the finish of the 1986-87 team. As everyone else has already told you, thanks for a great season, Explorers. Thanks for all of the excitement, and take it even farther next year. i 4 i Craig Conlin fights for position against Temple. Tarr concentrates on the second foul shot.

No Apathy Here By Ed Skorpinski Why am I a cheerleader? Because it ' s a lot of fun and a heckuva lot easier than sports. Although this remark, made laugh- ingly by sophomore Miriam Dvorak, would lead one to believe that being on the Explorer Cheerleading Squad means nothing more than jumping around like over-exuberant children during a basketball game, it is a little more involved than that. For yet an- other winter sports season, the Cheer- leading and Dance Teams, along with the mascot, have entertained fans during Explorer basketball games, What most people don ' t realize, how- ever, because they are usually too en- grossed in the game, is the tremendous energy that the twenty-two sideline performers exert and the stamina they must possess to constantly goad the crowd with cheers and routines. Un- doubtedly, many a cheerleader has held her breath as she drops from a pyr- amid formation into the waiting arms of her partner underneath. Cheerleaders: Ed Borbin, Miriam Dvorak, Lisa Mackes, Jennifer Delio, Lisa Giacometti, David Santerian, Kevin Williams, Kathy Bertino, Karen Rio (Co-Captain), Debbie Chiaravalotti, Michael Castello (Co-Captain), Dom Catrambone, Frank Faber, Lisa Donnelly (Mascot), Teresa Andris (Coach), Pete Torres (Assistant Coach). Dance Team: Maria Esposito (Captain), Judy Rosboschil, Janice Polinsky, Tanya Perfecky, Stephanie Wan- kel, Cindy Bradford, Lisaeve Smulktis, Janet Fricker, Teresa Andris (Coach). It is true that cheerleaders do not practice as hard as athletes — only three times a week in two-hour sessions — but they expend just as much ener- gy during game time. And La Salle cheerleaders do follow along on a few of the team ' s trips (though not as many as they would like); for instance, they travelled to Connecticut and New York for the Fairfield and lona games this year. When asked how she thought the fans really reacted to her group, Miriam responded, It depends a lot on the team ' s performance that night. If La Salle isn ' t doing well, then nothing will get their attention. If the team is hot, though, we can get them cheering even louder. Moreover, she declared, No matter what kind of a night it is, we can always v out-cheer ' the competi- tion. Thus, even on a campus whose students are often criticized for their apathy, one can always find school spirit on the La Salle Cheerleading Squad. 144 La Salle Captures First Big 5 Title By Mary Coyle Women ' s Basketball The 1986-87 Women ' s Basketball team had a very tough act to follow. Last season ' s team compiled an out- standing record of 21-9, and captured their first-ever MAAC Championship, under the guidance of head coach Bill Speedy Morris. This year ' s team found itself without the services of three graduated 1000-point scorers and coach Morris, who left to take over the men ' s head coaching job. Replacing Morris is John Miller, 39, previously head coach at Monsignor Bonner High School where his team fin- ished the 1985-86 season with a 20-8 record. He has also coached at Roman Catholic and Archbishop Ryan High Schools, and, like Morris before him, has had to make an adjustment from coaching boys ' high-school basketball to women ' s college basketball. Under Miller and the dedicated lead- ership of senior co-captains Kelly Briar and Allison Hudson, the Lady Explorers have proven they are just as good as the MAAC Championship team of the previous year. Throughout the season, La Salle played competitively with sev- eral formidable opponents. One major victory which stands out is the defeat of the Lady Hawks of St. Joe ' s for the first time in sixteen meetings. This key win enabled the Lady Explorers to cap- ture their very first Big Five Champion- ship. Former player and present assistant coach Gina Tobin described what it was like to finally beat St. Joe ' s, It was tremendous. A Big Five victory against St. Joe ' s after so many years of defeats was special. It ' s great to still be in- volved with La Salle women ' s basket- ball, even though I ' m not out on the floor scoring points. Another highlight of the season was the prestigious La Salle Invitational Christmas Tournament. A field of eight tough teams battled it out on the hard- wood of Hayman Hall, including nation- ally-ranked James Madison University. La Salle faced JMU in the final and lost in a very close, hard-fought game. La Salle ' s own Kelly Briar had a fantastic tournament, and was named to the All-Tournament Team. Briar said of her accomplishment, I played as hard as I could to win, and I was just happy that others noticed. Senior co-captain Allison Hudson added more excitement to the season by scoring her career 1000th point against Fordham on January 23 at the Palestra. She is only the seventh player in Lady Explorer history to reach this mi- lestone. I was extremely happy to have finally scored my 1000th point. Al- though I ' ll be credited with the accom- plishment, it was really a team effort. I could not have done it without my teammates. The outstanding play of the Lady Ex- plorers can be attributed to much hard work and a great deal of talent in all areas. Other players who rounded out this fine team include guards Cheryl Reeve, Kelly Greenberg, and Sheila Wall. In the forward position, Linda French and Tracy Sneed are both key contributers. The intense desire and dedication of all the members of the La Salle Wom- en ' s Basketball Family have, and will continue, to make them a great suc- cess. Coach John Miller takes time out to review the strategy. Sheila Wall directs the team into position.

Led by Coach Jim Gavaghan and Co-Cap- tains Tim Collins and Jim Gulick, the Ex- plorers maintained a busy indoor and outdoor schedule that included such prestigious meets as the Millrose Games, the Princeton Relays, the CTC Championships, the Penn Relays, and the IC4A Championships. Because of limitations imposed by the NCAA committee on the number of athletic scholarships a school may distribute, La Salle is not able to partici- pate in the full range of track and field events. Rather, the Explorers concen- trate their efforts on the middle dis- tance events which better accommo- date cross country runners, namely the two-mile relay, the distance medley, the sprint medley, and the mile relay. In the past, La Salle was always able to qualify everyone on the team for the IC4A Championships, generally considered to be the ultimate goal for small colleges. More recently, howev- er, qualifying runners for the IC4A has not been so automatic. Recruiting bat- tles have kept a lot of local talent from coming to La Salle, and it was the goal this year to rebuild the strong nucleus that had been lost. One of the ways which the men ' s team attempted to do this was to es- tablish a Track House on campus where track team members could en- joy nearly year-round housing free from dorm closings during periods when school was not in session. Wister House, which formerly housed the Special Ac- tivities and Travel Office, was acquired from the Resident Life Office for this purpose. The appointment of Bob Mul- len as the school ' s new athletic director also had important implications for t he Explorers. A former track participant himself, Mullen is a strong supporter of the track program at La Salle. Finally, the most important event of the year was the announcement of the construction of a new $300,000 track in McCarthy Stadium to replace the bad- ly-worn cinder track. Helping in the de- cision was an agreement by the re- cently-formed track alumni association to contribute a portion of the building costs. Consisting of several Olympic participants, the alumni association has been helping to support the track team both vocally and financially since spring 1985. When completed, the eight-lane tartan surface is hoped to provide a state-of-the-art facility that will allow track meets to be held on campus, as well as lure more talented recruits to La Salle.

Injuries Hamper Women Runners By Judy Ring Kathy Rivera. Gretchen Heebner and Judy Ring run a sprint during practice. Indoor track follows quickly after the cross country season, and sprinters couldn ' t be happier to see the new events. Along with the new season, however, come other changes as well: a much busier schedule with at least one meet per weekend; indoor prac- tices, this year on the newly re-sur- faced track in Hayman Hall; and a whole new wave of injuries. La Salle ' s Women ' s Track Team has, unfortunately, suffered more than its share of injuries. Top runners Drea Schwind, Heather Shields, and Elissa Broderick spent most of the season on the sidelines with stress fractures. Many runners, such as Verlinda Taurine raced with minor but nonetheless ham- pering injuries. These setbacks caused a marked difference in the overall quality of the team ' s record. Among the notable individual perfor- mances, however, were sophomore Judy Ring ' s success in the sixty-yard hurdles, and freshman Maureen Hig- gins ' sub-sixty quarter miles. The outdoor season will hopefully mean recovery from the injuries that have plagued the team thus far, and a chance at some solid team outings. Standing: Bro. Jerome Benway (Asst.

Watch The Birdie By Ed Skorpinski Although it is perhaps the most little known team on campus, the golf team at La Salle has certainly caught some attention around the rest of the league. Coached by Father Robert Breen, the team has already made a strong showing in three fall matches, with a much longer spring schedule to follow. In tournaments at Georgetown and Bucknell, they placed fifth and fourth respectively against strong fields in both events. In addition, at Bucknell, the team shot an amazing average round of 78. The third tournament, at Yale, was probably the toughest of the three, yet La Salle managed to place seventh out of twenty against several Ivy League powerhouses. Obviously, the golf team does not play on the La Salle campus; their home course is the Philmont Country Club, in Huntingdon Valley. Every spring break, they venture to warmer weath- er in Florida to begin spring practice and to participate in the Sunshine Invi- tational Tournament. Until May, then. La Salle ' s linksters will play matches at Philmont and at other colleges in the eastern Pennsylvania area such as Vil- lanova, St. Joseph ' s, West Chester, and Ursinus. Last spring was somewhat disap- pointing for the golf team, despite a third place showing in the MAAC Championships at the Pelham Manor Country Club in New York. With many returning members, it is likely that La Salle will give Army and Holy Cross a tough battle for the title this year. They are led by Tomas Kelliher, a sophomore import from Ireland who placed elev- enth overall in the MAAC Champion- ships and captured the Irish (American) Open at Frankford-Torresdale in the off season. Other key team members are senior Joe Hughes, juniors Jim Boyle and Joe Kelly, and sophomores Joe Quigley and Jim Green. Great things are also expected from new golfers Tom Co- vello, a transfer from the University of Maryland, and freshman Fran Malley and Glenn Perri. Most people probably picture golf as simply a leisure sport played by doctors on their days off. As Kelliher remarks, however, At La Salle, golf is just not a social event — because we are a var- sity sport, we are expected to per- form. This sense of seriousness is evi- denced by daily practices and team discussions with Coach Breen after- wards to discuss course strategies. As Kelliher adds, though, the team is out there because they like the sport and have a lot of fun at it. Hopefully, the right combination of fun and concen- tration will bring the golf team even more success in the future.

ITIen ' s Tennis Freshman Captures MAAC Singles Title By Peggy Seydow The men ' s tennis team headed for Forest Hills and MAAC Championships in October with just three players return- ing from last year ' s winning season. Sophomore Evan Weiss was outstand- ing at number two singles, losing in the semifinals to the eventual winner of the division. Senior Michael Holt was strong at number four singles, but he truly ex- celled at number two doubles; paired with junior transfer Jim Simone, the duo made it to the finals before rain can- celled their match. Freshmen Scott Piro and Lester Powder played well at num- bers five and six, and junior co-captain Pete Teluk played his usual excellent doubles, leading La Salle to a third place finish. However, the real star of the team, and of the tournament, was freshman Darryl Mack, whose brilliant play earned him four victories at number one singles and made him the champi- on of the MAAC. Never before had La Salle had a player in the championship final, but Mack did not allow tradition to deter him; he fought his way to a tough third set victory over his Army oppo- nent, the previous year ' s champion. Coach Jeff Marmon was thrilled with Mack ' s victory, especially because his young sensation was playing in his first collegiate tournament. Although the men ' s season is in the spring, they play MAAC championships in October, at the same time as the women ' s team. The men ' s powerful performance has Marmon looking toward a great sea- son; with the new advantage of home courts, he hopes to better last year ' s 10-4 record. The team is young, but the leadership of co-captains Holt and Te- luk, and the potential of Mack and the other freshmen, signals a bright future for the 1987 season. Coach Marmon congratulates Darryl Mack for winning the No. 1 Singles MAAC Championship. 1986 graduate Gary Block gets ready to smash a serve against his opponent. 1986 Men ' s Tennis: Pete Teluk, Evan Weiss, Wasyl Manko, Ray Pescatore, Mike Holt, Gary Block, Mike Patterson, John Mercurio, Jeff Marmon (Coach).

Softball Recruiting Problems Plague Softball Team Two Years in a Row In his twelve years here at La Salle, head softball coach Rick Pohlig has led the team to a 170-1 12 win-loss record. Every season has seen a .500 or better average. 1986, Pohlig admits, was an exception. It was a transitional year, he says, explaining that tor the first time, re- cruiting was very difficult. Despite a good schedule, last season proved to be too much for the lv under-wo- maned team; where there are usually eighteen players, there were only twelve. Numbers and inexperience were the major obstacles to upholding the .500 or better standard of which the team ' s history can boast. Nevertheless, Pohlig does not view the 1986 season negatively. There were the wins against nationally- ranked North Carolina at Chapel Hill and East Carolina at the George Ma- son Invitational. There was the tie against Rutgers, to whom La Salle has always previously lost. And there were the honors earned by freshman Anne Richards and sophomore Sonya Wil- moth, both of whom were named to the MA AC All-Tournament Team. Left- fielder Richards performed flawlessly at the MAAC Championship, after achieving a regular season .350 bat- ting average. Wilmoth pitched with an ERA of .140, posting a 12-11 record, In addition, Wilmoth had an impressive .267 batting average. Hopes of making it to the MAAC Tournament Championships, however, By Mary Goldschmidt were dashed in overtime when Holy Cross won 1-0, putting La Salle in third place. For the 1987 season, recruiting was still a problem. Fortunately, many play- ers are returning, and their experience will add greatly to the strength of the team. Coach Pohlig is optimistic in his outlook and confident that the team will finish with a winning record. A special meaning will accompany every 1987 game, for the team has dedicated the season to the memory of former teammate Chris Mazurek, a 1985 graduate who died tragically in 1986. It is hoped the team reaches all of their goals. La Salle ' s on deck and ready for victory.

The Naturals By Ed Skorpinski Coming off a disappointing 17-20 re- cord one year earlier, the Baseball team entered the 1987 season cau- tiously predicting one of their best sea- sons in recent years. Losing just two players to graduation, this year ' s team had what long-time Coach Gene Mc- Donnell called the best infield the school has ever seen. Returning was MAAC MVP Barry Petrachenko, who led the league in hitting last year with a .453 average in addition to leading the team in hits (63), runs scored (49), dou- bles (8), and stolen bases (37). Joining second baseman (and Asst. Captain) Petrachenko were shortstop Mark la- covelli, whose fielding was exciting to watch, third basemen Steve O ' Donnell, a hard-nosed player who dove for ev- erything within reach, and pitcher first baseman (Captain) Pat Waninger, who sat out the entire last season with an injury. Other key returning players were (Asst. Captain) Sero Cardamone and Darren Cromwell, probably the most consistent player on the team. There were a couple of reasons for the demise of the previous year ' s team, most notably of which was the injury to Waninger. Already down one pitcher, therefore, injuries to other pitchers during the season affected game outcomes significantly. In addi- tion, two of the infielders were ro okies. Despite La Salle ' s fourth-place finish in the MAAC standings, there were no team members pointing fingers. Another factor contributing to the Explorers ' chances of winning the MAAC is the experience of Coach O ' Donnell. Unlike some other coaches, O ' Donnell does not try to mold players to his own liking, but rather allows them to develop their own style provided that they are successful. In order to prepare themselves for the season, the baseball team made their annual trek to Florida to practice as well as to play preseason games against Florida league teams. It was hoped that this year ' s squad would seek revenge in the MAAC and beat out rival Temple. A noted absence on the Explorers was that of Assistant Coach Chet Di- Emidio, who was signed by the Chica- go White Sox organization to coach one of their farm clubs. He was re- placed by Bob Vivian. Sophomore Mark lacovelli awaits the pitch. Coach Gene O ' Donnell checks the stats during team tryouts.

Enjoying Some Success Despite The Odds By Ed Skorpinski Due to the departure of several sen- iors and upperclassmen from the pre- vious season, the 1986-87 Men ' s Crew team entered the fall season in a very tough predicament. While many other schools had teams of thirty rowers or better, La Salle, under the new direc- tion of Coach Dave McGuigan, was forced to work with only twelve to eighteen people. In crew, sheer num- bers can often make the difference between victory and tired oarsmen who must enter every race. Neverthe- less, the Explorers made a surprisingly strong showing against several Ivy League powers, particularly in the Frostbite and Braxton Regattas, with their Novice-4 boat winning both races. In the spring, however, things did not get any easier as the crew team faced the bulk of their racing season. In addi- tion to races against city rivals Temple and Drexel and MAAC opponents Holy Cross and Army, La Salle also partici- pated in the prestigious Dad Vail Re- gatta, the premier race for small col- leges. With their team somewhat swelled in number, the Explorers en- The Novice 4 boat goes out on a practice run. tered four events when they could: the Novice-4, the Novice-8, the Varsity Heavyweight-4 and the Varsity Lightweight-4. By far, crew is the most demanding of all the college sports. Most people don ' t realize that serious crew team members have two workouts a day — rowing from five a.m. to eight a.m. in the morning and a land workout in the afternoon. Many people, in fact, quit the team when it becomes too much for them. For those that remain, how- ever, there is a very strong feeling of comradery that is not experienced in other sports. For La Salle rowers, this is evidenced by the existence of the crew team ' s own little fraternity known as the Buddy Club. Finally, not to be forgotten is the im- portant role that crew alumni play in maintaining a crew program at La Salle. Only through their continued moral and financial support can the crew team function competitively, Roster: Peter Borowski, Paul Brabant, Frank Ca- taldi (Co-Captain), Bill Collins, Paul Connor, Mike Cunning, Jeff DeVuono, Gerald Futi, Joe Hentz, Kurt Marrone, Mick O ' Brien, Thomas Williams, Kevn Byrne, Dave McGuigan, Daraius Unwalla (Asst.

Of thirty-three boats. La Salle ' s crew captured fourteenth place. This very respectable finish came against mostly Ivy League and Club Crews, and both coach Tim Conrad and sguad members were extremely pleased with their performance. In the spring season. La Salle will race in the Dad Vail Regatta with a Varsity Lightweight-4, averaging 125 lbs. The sguad includes co-captains Stephanie Gamble and Sue Byrne, Peg McCabe, Ann Meehan, Andrea Bonaccorsi, Shar- on Cody, and Ira Jones. The women hope to do even better than last year ' s sauad which placed twelfth among thirty-three boats. The freshman crew, who spent the fall on basics such as rowing style, will practice with and against the varsity sauad come spring. They hope to build both strength and confidence as they face their first races. As senior co-captain Stephanie Gamble pointed out, a rower is also a runner, a weightlifter, a cyclist, and, above all, a determined athlete.

Mulcahy Deciding to go to Switzerland was surprisingly lacking in WHYs, but filled, instead, by a single, strong WHY NOT? It was with this auestion in mind that most of us signed up. Then came months of details: passport, medical and dental check ups, money, and then more money. When we stepped off the plane in foggy Amsterdam, our decision hatched and came to roost in our minds: different roads, different cars, a different smell, the sound of Dutch, and a thought — MY GOD, WE ' RE HERE! Fribourg, Switzerland was two days and a long bus ride away. We brought to Switzerland different reasons for having come. Some just wanted to be away from home, in a different place, so as to test their own mettle. For them, Switzerland was like boot camp, a training ground for the rigors of real life after La Salle, without parents, dorm rooms, or meal cards. They wanted no more wombs to sleep in. For others, a chance to study in Europe was one that should not be missed: becoming part of another culture, learning their language, and seeing as they see, would improve our perception of ourselves and our country. Switzerland offered an opportunity to step back for ten months and assess American culture, while taking a good look at our part in its evolution. Sitting in a cafe reading an American newspaper, was like sitting in the stands watching the American Dream running, tackling, and flea-flicking before your eyes. We saw hostage crises, exploding space ships, and the bombing of Tripoli. It all seemed so tense from the stands, while sipping a tall beer. In Switzerland, we savored the calm, and the view, as those at home pushed on in a stressful, frantic, bone-crushing game that looked so fruitless. Some went to Switzerland to get away from their everyday boredom, their everyday worries, and their everyday wish not to lead everyday lives. They went with full pockets that they wanted to empty, and empty hearts, that they wanted to fill with meaning in the form of expensive memories. Whatever our reasons were for going, we each had one thing in common: a satisfying sense of having done something worth doing. It was this sense that made us happy in Fribourg. It was this sense also that put confidence in our eyes, even during our first week in Switzerland, when every store clerk and waiter seemed to speak too guickly, and every road seemed to lead us away from where we were going. For me, Fribourg remains in my mind as a series of images. I guess that ' s the nature of memory. I like how the images are constantly changing, and how they can be evoked by just a word or a smell. A ten volume photo album helps too. I can still see my Swiss landlady, her eyes bulging through her thick glasses, standing in my doorway with a question: why didn ' t you scrub the bathtub after your bath? When I began scrubbing after every bath, she became much more pleasant. I can see the classrooms at the University of Fribourg, and can still hear all of that French. My eyes would wander out the window and look at the snow-capped mountains in the distance; that was the Swiss horizon. The Swiss students were muc h too serious to daydream. While my mind was in the mountains, they took notes that you wouldn ' t believe: complete, organized, and doodle free, like Switzerland itself. I remember sitting on my backpack at Athens International Airport, the day after Tripoli was attacked by Back row: Mary Zaleski, Gail Brenan, Chris Lynch, Karen Lamport, Bob Mingle. Front row: Gina D ' Ambrosia, Lisa Gallagher, Kevin O ' Donnell, Joe Doyle, John Mulcahy. U.S. forces. It was 3 AM and the Greek security police were walking in pairs near every exit while looking at everyone ' s bags, submachine guns at ready. I was mumbling the Hail Mary while trying desperately to remember the Canadian national anthem. When my flight landed in ZGrich, I felt at home. Then, Fribourg was like being in my mother ' s arms. We each tried to find our own kind of happiness there, and travel was what we did best. Usually we found happiness together, in the cafes, or at the university cafeteria, even when some of us had to work there, scraping and cleaning dirty dishes with the other foreigners. In Fribourg, I had no television or radio, and I lived alone. For ten months my mind worked like a machine. I exercised my memory by memorizing long poems, and passages from Shakespeare. I wrote extensive letters, and tried to capture every sound, color, and feeling from each city that I visited. I also became a good judge of wine and cheese. It was, undoubtedly, a wierd, excessively literate way to live. But, believe it or not, I was happy. When I returned to the United States, I watched television for a week and shot it all to hell. Of course, not everyone lived like me. We each had a different living situation. Some lived in the city, oth ers lived just outside of the city. Some lived on a farm. A few people lived with a family, while others, like myself, had a single rented room. Regardless of our situation, we all learned a great deal about how to get along with people, how to live on our own, and most importantly, how to speak enough French to stay warm, fed, and in the good graces of those who kept us that way. The memories will always be with me, and I know that they ' re a big part of everyone who went to Fribourg. When I ' m alone, my memories are like little pieces of joy. When I ' m with others from our group, those little pieces of joy become a full scale banguet. I read that Hemingway called Paris a moveable feast. Now, I know just what he meant, because Fribourg too is a moveable feast. WRITTEN IN MEMORY OF VIC TORIA MAAR. MA Y GOD SEE IN HER WHA T WE WHO KNEW HER SA W.

Byrnes When La Salle College opened its doors to part- time students and became the first area institution to offer a bachelor ' s degree program which could be completed entirely at night, the enrollment stood at seventy-nine. Today, forty years later, La Salle has grown to a university, and the Evening Division has become a viable, expanding part of its community with an enrollment of 2000 students. Each year approximately two hundred Evening Division candidates receive The end of a long day for most Evening Division students comes only after a full-time job and night classes. degrees. Accommodating this growth has meant continuing change. College Hall, the only builOing on campus in 1946, was home to the original six class sections. Now, four classroom buildings are bustling with Evening Division students late into the night. At that time two degree programs were offered. Presently, seventeen undergraduate and five graduate degree programs are available at La Salle. A program uniaue to La Salle ' s Evening Division is the Bachelor of Arts in Electronic Physics. The addition of the Nursing Program in 1980 fulfilled a real need for area registered nurses who began to see their BSN as a reauirement for advancement in their field. The program is praised by nurses for its holistic approach and the curriculum which is geared to build on their existing knowledge. Nursing students are treated not only as students, but as the professionals they are. Instructors in the Evening Division are a mix of full- time professors from the Day Division, and part-time teachers. Students find faculty members knowledgeable in their fields, as well as easily accessible and understanding of the varied responsibilities facing the evening student. The average class size is nineteen, which gives teachers an opportunity to get to know students on an individual basis. The Evening Division administrative offices, under the direction of Dean Glenda M. Kuhl, Ph.D., can handle just about anything an evening student will ever need while at La Salle. A staff of counselors is available to offer advice and guidance in areas of course selection, financial aid, the earning of credits through the College-Level Examination Program (CLEP), and good old moral support. Integral to the program is the Continuing Education for Women office, directed by Mary Rutkowski. The staff helps ease a woman ' s return to the classroom with both academic and personal counseling. The 1985-86 school year saw the renewal of the Evening Division Student Council. Their goal is to have the Evening Division student body become more actively involved in the school. Projects undertaken include: a survey to determine what activities would interest the students; an Evening Division newspaper; the Christmas party for children of Evening Division students; and the designing and sale of night- school sweatshirts. One of the biggest changes over the past forty years, however, has been in the student body. Originally an all-male group, the Evening Division is now seventy percent female. While some students are rather recent high school graduates, many have returned to the classroom after long absences. Beginning a college career later in life, even with one course, can be even more traumatic than the situation faced by the typical eighteen-year-old freshman. Most evening students must juggle full- time jobs and family responsibilities while attending school. Some work full-time and attend school full-time simultaneously. A relatively small number of students are pursuing their education full-time and are not presently employed. The decision to attend night school later in life changes the life style not only of the student, but of family members as well. Someone else may have to cut the grass, do the wash, grocery shop, cook a meal, or clean up the house occasionally. Perhaps these chores may not get done at all! The many students who are single parents must find ways to allocate quality time to children in face of the additional demand on that already scarce commodity. Husbands and wives of students may suddenly find themselves alone in their spare time while their favorite student is hitting the books. Since the decision represents a major commitment to a goal that can take anywhere from four to ten or more years to achieve, understanding, cooperation, support, and most of all patience from family members make great year-round gifts for the evening student. Naturally, this decision to pursue a degree drastically affects the student. At least two nights a week it means a mad dash from work to school, no time for dinner, less time for family and social activities, and being prepared for class. Study habits need to be refreshed, and learning to set priorities is essential for maintaining one ' s sanity. The first few days on campus are spent trying to locate everything without looking like an incoming freshman. The perceived advantages of small classes disappear when students find out that their teacher knows their names and actually expects them to participate. The fear of failure by giving a wrong answer sometimes causes students to withhold their thoughts. Slowly but surely the brain cells shift into high gear, and the learning begins. Eventually, it dawns that giving a wrong answer is a way of learning, and that participation is a vital part of the process. Evening students learn not only from their books and instructors, but also from one another. Many new friendships are formed Children of Evening Division Students meet with Santa at Christmas. as students meet their challenges together: quizzes, tests, mid-terms, papers, finals, and too-little time. The exchange of ideas among people with varied life experience fosters education that cannot be found in books. When frustration and work overload set in, there is always a fellow student who understands and provides encouragement. In freshman year, graduation seems an eternity away. Course by course, however, progress is made, and the successful completion of each semester is incentive to push on. Entering the final semester of senior year seems like a dream; after so many years, it is hard to imagine life without school. What will graduation mean? Practically speaking, it may mean a promotion, a new career, or perhaps graduate school. Socially, there will be more time for family and friends. Families that have adjusted to the student ' s absence will be forced to readjust to life with a graduate. The whole family can now work on undone home projects from the last ten years; there will now be someone home every night to cook real food; and there may be an extra person to fight for the TV. In addition, the family will no longer be subjected to the excuse I have to study, when something needs to be done. But graduation will also mean saying farewell to the many people at La Salle who were always there in a pinch. As graduation approaches, this evening student reflects on the people that make the institution, its philosophy of education, and the effect they have had on me. At La Salle, students are encouraged to develop both intellectually and spiritually. My years here have indeed broadened my horizons. I know much more about God, our world, and its people than I did six years ago, but I am also keenly aware of how much I do not know. For me, graduation will not be an ending, but the beginning of the next phase of my education. No matter what the future holds, the education will continue. Suddenly, the hard work, times of frustration, anxiety, and many sacrifices seem worth it. The dream is about to become reality. Aspell, Marie E. BSN, Nursing. Phila, PA. Baessler, Christina A.

Staff Artist: Bruce Brien Special thanks to everyone at Davor Photo, Kathy Schroder and the Student Life Office, Herff Jones Yearbooks, Marti Cook and the Sports Information Office, and everyone at the News Bureau. Although it ' s difficult for me to believe, the book is finished and Ed and I are headed into the ranks of former editors. We may have disagreed on a few things thoughout the year, but I know that we now agree on at least two points: that the sight of falling snow at sunrise is beautiful, and that the hard work and sacrifice (and many good times) that went into this book have definitely been worthwhile. During the year, however, it was easy to become discouraged, and at those times it was Ed ' s perseverence that brought the 1987 Explorer to its suc- cessful completion. Therefore, I owe my deepest thanks to you, Ed, for giving so much of yourself to make this book what we both always wanted it to be. Bruce, I ' ll have to admit. I ' ve never . . . met a financial ex- ecutive as competent and dependable as you who also dou- bles as resident painter, carpet layer, artist, layout copier, buddy, and Hideaway escort. Enjoy yourself in Texas! Terry, thank you for your royal presence; we would have been sunk without your hard work and dedic ation. Take care of Mr. Davine for us. and good luck next year and in ' 89. Frank, you certainly made life interesting! Good luck in medi- cal school. Pauline and Carolyn, pages of this book would be blank right now if it hadn ' t been for your dependability — thanks for all of your help. I ' m grateful to everyone who took time from busy schedules to write articles; Jack, thanks for all of your L. and C. Dr. Millard, your calm, reassuring manner, good judgment, confidence in my ability, and wonderful smile not only helped me through some rough times this year, but will also be a source of inspiration in the future. Thank you for everything. 8ob and Rita, what would we have done without your of- fice phone number? As so many editors do. I too will remem- ber your invaluable help in times of crisis, our Monday morning meetings which (how often?) turned into Tuesday night drop- offs, and, especially, our many laughs together. The Explorer is fortunate to have you. Mom and Dad, thank you for your unwavering support, for putting up with my moods from lack of sleep, and for enduring the mess. Walt, thanks for all the rides — now that you ' ve seen the book do you think it was worth it? Donna and Peggy, I owe both of you many thanks for put- ting me up so often. Peggy — what ' s a zot? Donna — see you in London! MF and MAM, thank you for always being there when I need- ed you. I am also indebted to my teachers, whose advice and con- cern have enabled me to meet the challenges of the past four years, and inspired me to follow their example, especially. Dr. Kerlin, Dr. Butler. Dr. Millard, Dr. Allen, Dr. Haberstroh, and Dr. Fallon. Finally, Ed, I wish you success in medical school, and may you never fall victim to the Fate. — Mary Well, another year — another yearbook. After all of the marathon weekends, all of the cold pizzas, and all of the sunrises that peaked through the new blinds , the book is finally done. And boy am I ever glad. Ellen was right, Mary, putting the Explorer together isn ' t easy. I can hear that snicker all the way from East Oak Lane. Nevertheless, we did manage and a great deal of thanks are owed to a number of people who helped out. First of all, sincere thanks go to my co-editor, without whose organiza- tion the Explorer would have never stayed on schedule. Good luck in grad school, Mary, and don ' t try to push yourself too hard. To Bruce, I thank you for just about everything else, since you did just about everything else. Without your keen business sense, we never could have swung that Florida trip on the company tab! (Just kidding, Kathy . . .) I hope you find every- thing that you ' re looking for. To the true Queen of Yearbooks, Terry, thanks for all of your help. Good luck in Organic next year, at the helm the year after that, and with your friend. Just stay away from those boathouse parties Thanks to all of the photographers; Frank, Pauline, and Carolyn. Frank — its okay if you drop the camera, as long as you don ' t drop the scalpel when the times comes. Pauline — be sure all of those Harvard law students make their class visits. Carolyn — have fun next year ... so far you ' re all they ' ve got. Thanks to all of the writers: whoever you are! Hey, I ' m just a chemistry major — I let the English major find all of the writers. Thanks to all of the copy editors (a.k.a. all of the people I suckered into proofreading): Rebecca, Sue and Ann. You there when the chips were down and our backs were to the wall. Thanks to Bob and Rita Davine: This is it guys, I ' m hanging up my proper cropper. Thanks to Kathy Schroder: for letting us redecorate! Now, if only we could ' ve gotten the rest of the campus to cooperate with a computer . . . Thanks to all of the Davor people: for impeccable service all year. Finally, thanks to all of the people who may or may not have helped the book, but sure made La Salle a lot of fun: AL — Delaware ' s a good chemistry school, too . . . made you can teach them your own special technique. DS — Good luck at Penn; who needs Harvard anyway. SK — Get rid of that car! LR — Your car got rid of itself. PJW — Oh, the things I wish I could have said in this statement. SS — It ' s all yours next year, chief. MT — I hope you have a great time taking those little monsters to the zoo next year (by yourself, ha, ha, ha . . .) SL — I think we had both better retire from hoagie sales. TB — to my self- proclaimed archrival , let ' s call a truce. DR — who could ask for a better lab partner (you did all of the work). DM — I ' ll never forget that lunch date; best of luck in the future. JL — Who- dunnit! Chem Faculty — I sure hope you guys (and girls!) en- joyed making me sweat for four years. Bio Faculty — If I had to do it again . . . TC — Thanks for three great years of dorm life and friendship; have fun watching the kids next year. JE — Keep a close eye on TC. BL — Stay cool and relaxed about school, just like me. FJH, JM, JB — Thanks for the Vice ... so when are we going to the shore? EB — to a great friend and the one person who could get me in a lot of trouble if he opened his mouth . . . you ' d better keep quiet or I ' ll start talk- ing too. Let ' s see if you can be a bastion at Penn. LS — Luv ya kiddo . . . thanks for putting up with me all these years. MOM — Don ' t worry, there won ' t be any more yearbooks in med school. RAE — Remember, things always work out the way they are supposed to. Anybody else I might have missed — Sorry!
