In the beginning, the student enters the university with an open mind, ready to learn new things and a new way of life. But full of expectations and hopes. Full of desires, perhaps optimistic, perhaps naive, perhaps impractical. Opening 5 How does time change the person who is a student? Do his idealistic expectations materialize? Or do they become instead worldly, pessimistic, bitter — or merely more sophisticated? 6 Opening Opening 7 Time changes everything. It is not likely that the great expecta- tions a student brings with him when he enters the university world will remain the same. They will change just as the student himself will. 8 Opening Who is to say that this is good or bad? It is a simple fact of life. The student will grow and mature, and, in the same way, his ideas and dreams will grow and mature with him. Opening 9 It is safe to say that for most students, the time they spend in the environment of the university will modify their attitudes and outlooks and goals. Maybe the change is greatly obvious, or perhaps it is scarcely noticeable. 10 Opening Opening 1 1 12 Opening Opening 13 14 Opening Opening 15 16 Opening JL H 1 El - ' ' ' «H Mi n 1 ' - Bl l SH 3f- | ■ - •■AfvfCf HR iffl • _ _. -- ' ' { ra| 4b r ' ' • ' •■ ' ■ - •■ • ' ■ ' • HHb ' PJ H JR i m ' ■ ■ ' ■ T ®3i8t£M336 f k . ■ !

Some cannot or will not accept the challenge and will move on to find what they are looking for somewhere else. Some are so impressed with the challenge they become a part of and promote it without ever meet- ing it. Some are so frightened by the challenge they pretend it does not exist and try to escape it, though they remain in the university. But some meet the challenge head-on, and in doing so, change and have the chance to grow. Every student needs to ask himself the question: Into which group do I fit? If the answer is not the some who meet the chal- lenge, change is needed. Why? Because life itself is like Memphis State University. At its every turn the challenge is there, and without change there is no chance to grow. And without growth there is no life. Academics 21 Gov. Winfield Dunn attends the inauguration of Dr. Jones. The President 22 Academics Dr. Billy M. Jones Memphis State University has a proud history of progress and achievement and has contributed greatly to the educational and cultural life of Memphis and the surrounding community. It is in reflecting upon this heritage of service and excellence that we most clearly recognize the challenge of the future. The University faces the chal- lenge to change in accord with a rapidly changing society and is challenged to grow to meet the ever increasing demands of an urban environment. We cannot be content with the status quo, but must continue to seize each opportunity to meet the educational needs of the present and the future. The traditional and non- traditional programs of education at Memphis State University have been evaluated carefully to assure a total offering of contemporary teaching, research and service to the people of our state and region. We are enthusiastic about the status of our existing programs, particularly those for which traditional com- prehensive universities are known. We have also discovered some new areas where we can be of service, and we have accepted those addi- tional responsibilities. We believe in the concept and the practice of lifelong learning at Memphis State. Students of all ages and interests can continue to improve intellectually, culturally and occupationally through the versatile approaches to learning offered by continuing education, and by innovative delivery modes in some of the more traditional programs such as Weekend Uni- versity and our off campus centers. Our enduring challenge is to provide the best education possible for the widest variety of interest levels, and we are committed to work toward this goal. The chal- lenge of the students is to take the fullest advantage of what is offered by Memphis State University and to use this knowledge for the better- ment of themselves and of society. I am confident of the success of both efforts. Our Enduring Challenge Scotty, Jeff, Woody, Rusty and Mrs. Jones look on as Dr. Jones takes aim. Dr. Major L. Wilson - History Dr. Brodie T.

Humphreys retired this year as Chancellor of the Board of Regents of the Tennessee Higher Education Commission to assume a position in the Memphis business community. He began his career at Memphis State in 1937 as an instructor in history. At that time the institu- tion, known as West Tennessee College, had an enrollment of only 1,000 students. When Dr. Humphreys retired, Memphis State University consisted of four major colleges with a combined enrollment of 22,000 students. During more than thirty years of service to Memphis State, he was Coordinator of Public Relations, Athletic Director, Director of the Graduate School and Assistant to the President. From 1960 through 1972, Dr. Humphreys served as President of Memphis State, guiding the university through its years of greatest change and growth. In 1972 he was appointed Chancellor of the Board of Regents with the responsibility of overseeing the operations of all state colleges and universities.

Academics 43 A helping hand was extended to more students as the university continued to expand its counseling services. The Educational Support Program was initiated to provide tutoring in English composition, mathematics, reading and study skills. Student Development Services offered a new course in leadership skills and continued its peer counseling sessions. Good news came from the Veterans ' Affairs office in the form of a twenty-three per cent increase in benefits. Even though the local employment situation was bleak, the University Placement Office and the Student Part-time Employ- ment Office continued to place students in full and part-time jobs. The University College remained in existence to advise freshmen and sophomores, despite rumors that it would be phased out. Personal psychological counseling was available through University Counseling Services, and limited medical care was offered to all students at the Health Clinic. Whatever the problem— academ- ic, personal, financial or medical- help was available on campus. Granville Edmundson, co-ordinator of Veterans ' Affairs, counsels a veteran.

Academics 45 College Of Arts And Sciences The liberal arts program at Memphis State University encom- passed a range of man ' s knowledge and skills. The College of Arts and Sciences provided for the explora- tion and development of unique individual interests. The broad spectrum of liberal arts studies enlarged the sphere of human values while preparing a student to translate beliefs into actions. The College of Arts and Sciences fulfilled its teaching activities by offering a historical perspective, a knowledge of other peoples and languages, a sharing of human experiences through literature, a scientific search for causes and an intellectual sensitivity for the fine arts. The advancement of the individual and his creative powers was achieved through a variety of means. Student drama productions, science and language laboratories, the University Orchestra, up-to-date communication facilities and numerous internship programs contributed to the formation of an inquiring and disciplined mind. In addition, the development of interdisciplinary programs within the College allowed students to follow a course of study corre- sponding to their needs and curiosities. Dr. Walter R.

Academics 49 Expansion and refinement of professional laboratory experiences for undergraduates was a major objective in the College of Educa- tion. Early experiences in actual classroom situations was the goal of several new programs developed in the college for education majors. Tutoring assignments in Mem- phis public schools gave sopho- mores a chance to interact with school children on a one-to-one basis. The Teacher Apprentice Program allowed juniors to teach a class under supervision before their actual student teaching assignment. Much publicity was given the Resident Intern Program which provided in-class experience with enrollment in methods courses. The Cooperative Urban Teacher Education project served as a model for other universities across the United States. An exchange program was developed with South Dakota State University, and some Memphis State students were given the opportunity to do their student teaching in Guatemala. The Individually Guided Education experiment in its second year at Campus Elementary School proved to be a success. This innovation created a new labora- tory experience f or the undergradu- ate.

Markle, Dean of the College of Business Administra- tion, announced his retirement after many years of distinguished service to Memphis State. In his years as dean, he saw the enroll- ment in the college double in size. Dr. Markle ' s absence will be felt by students and faculty alike. The college sponsored its annual Business Outlook Conference in November. Trends in business from the past year as well as the outlook for business in the upcoming year were discussed.

The departments in the college exhibited projects they had worked on throughout the year. Many nationally known companies held demonstrations displaying their work in engineering and technolo- gy. All displays were open to the public, with special invitations issued to high school students interested in engineering. The exhibits included a display by Westinghouse concerning its ocean research, a display from the Atomic Energy Commission at Oak Ridge, and a demonstration by South Central Bell of future laser communication systems. NASA sponsored a look at its work on the upcoming Space Shuttle, and the geology department sponsored an explanation of the working of a seismograph. There were various displays on developing energy resources for the future. Informa- tion on career opportunities in engineering was available for interested students. A high school student watches his physiological responses being recorded. A display on the future development of energy is relevant. Water flow is demonstrated to students in this exhibit. Law School The Law School was in the process of undergoing an expansion which would eventually double the size of the school. The enlargement would give the school much-needed classroom and library space to facilitate its ever-increasing enroll- ment. Continued efforts were made by the Law School to admit more female and minority students to the law program. A law student presents his case before the Moot Court. Robert D. Cox, Dean of the School of Law. The law library stores a vast amount of information with which students prepare their arguments. Graduate School A young student receives instruction from a graduate assis- tant at the Speech and Hearing Center. Dr. Glen E. Peterson, Dean of the Graduate School. Ajax, a new-born bushbaby, gets nourishment from a graduate psychology student. As the trend toward specializa- tion in business and the greater need for knowledge increased, the Graduate School showed a remark- able growth over the past five years. Four new graduate courses were added in educational administration and supervision. Reflecting the importance of neuropsychology, the department of psychology broadened its new program in that field, one of the few in the country. The Ph.D. degree was offered in five disciplines, with the Ed.D. degree offered in three. Other departments likewise worked toward meeting the needs of the ever-changing fields of graduate education. Academics 59 Continuing Education Continuing Education expanded its programs to over 500 courses for both credit and non-credit. This was the first time Memphis State offered such a wide variety of subjects for part-time students. Classes in this program ranged from auto mechanics for women to belly dancing. A new program, Weekend University, was designed for the working person who had no time during the week to attend classes yet wanted to further his educa- tion. All courses offered in this program were degree credit courses. These classes came to the aid of people who enjoyed learning in order to enrich their lives. Young, old, black, white, rich, poor, those who desired to learn could benefit from Continuing Education. Dr. William A. Brotherton, Assistant to the Vice Presi- dent for Public Service and Continuing Education. mBmM Dr. John Rhodes, Vice President for Public Service and Continuing Education.

Dr. Kennedy relaxes backstage waiting for the curtain to go up on That Championship Season. A unique experience was in store for students who enrolled in SPCH 1551, Introduction to Theatre, as taught by Dr. Keith Kennedy. Instead of listening all semester to lectures on the history of the theater, they wrote, produced, directed and acted out their own mini-dramas. Games such as charades were a part of the course too. For the final exam, each student had to create a work of art and share it with the rest of the class. The projects ranged from metal sculpture to home-made ice cream. Dr. Kennedy said that he enjoyed teaching a freshman class as much as directing his numerous successful plays, the latest being That Championship Season. He did both with equal dedication; the actors in his plays and the students in his classes shared a true learning and growing experience. 62 Academics Miss Clanton shares a moment of laughter with her students. An Evening of Soul surrounds Miss Clanton. J ■ ' • I I I I I Miss Erma Clanton Miss Erma Clanton, a former student of Dr. Kennedy ' s, treated her students to a very special experience in SPCH 291 1, Speech for the Elementary School Teacher. Improved communication between different racial and ethnic groups was the chief aim of this course. Students learned to understand and deal with ethnic languages unfamil- iar to them. Miss Clanton felt it was critically important for future elementary school teachers to be able to understand the language of and communicate with children of all backgrounds. Teaching was only one of Miss Clanton ' s contributions to Memphis State. She continued to serve as co-ordinator of the Snack ' n ' Rap series and director of forensics. Her special creation, An Evening of Soul, played to audiences through- out Memphis. Academics 63 « I maH - Thinker ' s Creed Let me be open-minded on all subjects so that I may grow mentally and spiritually. May the time never come when I will be above learning from the humb- lest person. Let me never forget that a closed mind is a narrow mind. May I never fall into the bad habit of expressing opinions on any sub- ject unless they are founded upon reasonably dependable knowledge. Forbid that I should ever find fault with anyone because he may not agree with my opinions on any subject. Restrain me, always, Oh Power of Reason, from speaking out of turn, where I have not been invited to speak. May I always show a wholesome respect for those with whom I may not Keep me ever reminded that the thing I know is that I know too little about anything; that the sum total of knowledge acquired by the whole of mankind is not enough to justify any man in boasting of his knowledge. Give me the courage to admit that I do not know when I am asked a question about anything about which I know but little or nothing. May I always share willingly with others such humble knowledge as I may possess which could be of help to others. And never let me forget that humility of the heart will attract more friends than will all the wisdom of mankind. Let me remain always a student, in search of truth, and may I never pretend to be a finished scholar on any subject. And may I always remember that the greatest of all privileges is that of expressing tolerance by example. Give me some good books, some loyal friends with whom I dare to be myself, and never let me forget the words, Hope, Faith and Charity. from Napoleon Hill ' s Science of Personal Achievement Activities 66 67 68 Activities Perhaps one of the most significant transformations a person undergoes during his or her lifetime occurs during the years of college involvement. For most people it is within this four-year span of time that the binding chains of ado- lescence are broken, and some level of maturity is reached. Accustomed to the prestige warranted by high school senior- ship, college freshmen experience a reversal of situations as they find themselves again at the bottom of the totem pole. Unfortunately, their predicament is one of dis- orientation and disparity. Nevertheless, a point is finally reached when that initial shock subsides, and the subsequent years become a time in which the student develops— Activities 69 physically 70 Activities socially Activities 71 emotionally 7 2 Activities mentally Activities 73 4- Lifetime Dream Miss MSU As she paraded down the runway as the newly crowned Miss Memphis State, Connie Kelley achieved her Once in a Lifetime Dream.

Under the leadership of Dr. Thomas Ferguson, Arthur Theil and Rudy Mosier, the 215-piece band put in long hours of practice, as evidenced by the gradual disappearance of grass on the practice field. Colorful flag girls, Tigerettes and the Golden Girl, Nancy Moffitt, added to the pageantry and excitement of the half-time shows of MSU ' s Mighty Sound of the South. v..Cfc. ' . •«. ' ■ ,„.;:.

Practice, competition in band festivals, a guest performance at the Music Educators Convention in New Orleans and a tour to south- west Missouri aided these four bands in developing their musical talents. Guest appearances by bands such as the Clark Terry Big Bad Band and the U.S. Army Jazz Band enhanced the concerts during Jazz Week, an annual presentation of the Jazz Bands.

Director of the MSU band. Dr. Thomas Ferguson, selected sixteen girls from the group of eighty who auditioned. Candidates were judged on experience, body rhythm and beauty. Led by Nancy Moffitt, head Pom-pom girl, the squad enter- tained the fans with lively dance routines and supported the team with enthusiastic cheers. Activities ' ' 87 88 Activities Fine Arts Upon entering the sphere of college life, students often feel the desire to establish some form of identity for themselves. For some, this self-expression was accom- plished through the arts. Students had a variety of artistic fields for displaying their talents. Those with an interest in acting worked together in the producing of speech and drama presentations. The music depart- ment offered students the oppor- tunity to pursue musical careers or simply enjoy music. For those with artistic ability, creativity could be expressed with paintings, sculpture and handicrafts. Through these opportunities students learned to transform a blank canvas into a beautiful pastoral scence, a mass of scrap metal into a work of modem art, or an empty stage into a dazzling production. Activities 89 That Championship Season Jason Miller ' s That Cham- pionship Season proved to be one of the most successful plays at MSU. Keith Kennedy ' s direction and five talented actors helped to give the play dramatic impact. The coach still ruled the lives of the men, three of whom had remained especially close. George Sikowski was seeking re-election as the town mayor. His campaign was run by James Daley, and financed by Phil Romano. Each of the men ' s lives had been filled with tragic events, including the misfortunes of James ' brother, Tom, who had turned to alcohol. Tom was the only one who could face the fact that the trophy was won dishonestly. By the end of the play, however, he had suc- cumbed to the union the men had built for themselves. An old high school cheer is remembered by James and George.

The sad love affair between Lieutenant Cable and his native love and the more hopeful romance between Nellie Forbush and Emile De Becque had a timeless appeal to the audience. The romantic I ' m in Love Witli a Wonderful Guy and the tender Younger than Springtime are songs that create the picturesque mood of South Pacific. Activities 91 The Memphis State music department production of Purlie was a sell-out each night during its second consecutive summer presentation. The musical, a jazz version of Purlie Victorious by Ossie Davis, ran from July 12 to July 28. Under the direction of Harold Pierson the cast brought to life the story of Purlie, a black minister, and his efforts to free his people from 01 ' Cap ' n Cotchipee, the cruel owner of a modern plantation where the play took place. Clyde Williams played the role of Purlie who, with the help of Diane Reed as Lutiebelle, managed to outsmart Cap ' n Cotchipee, who was played by Russ Brown. Purlie and Lutiebelle embrace after Purlie gains control of the church. Deborah Manning delights the audience with her animated portrayal of Idella. Purlie 92 Activities Abounding talent makes Purlie a sensation. Rodolfo serenades Mimi with Che gelida manina. La Boheme Puccini ' s La Boheme was presented early in the fall by the Memphis Opera Theater at MSU. The opera was set in Paris in the 1830 ' s and dealt with the lives of the struggling, impoverished artists who gathered in the Bohemian quarters at the Cafe Momus. The poet Rodolfo fell in love with Mimi, a young girl who embroidered flowers that depicted springtime. She was frail and even more beautiful than Rodolfo ' s daydreams. Things were not all roses for the lovers, however. They became separated because of Rodolfo ' s jealousy. The coldness of winter in Paris took its toll on Mimi ' s health. By spring she was fatally ill. In a tragic and touching scene, the lovers were briefly reunited before Mimi ' s death. The curtain fell on a silent, sorrowful cast.

The students and administrators were all affected by the endless increase in prices. There were many differing opinions as to the cause and solution of stagflation. The views and attitudes expressed by those on the MSU campus were represen- tative of many opinions throughout the nation. Some people were knowledgeable of all sides of the issue while others held on to ideas they had adopted from a single source. Chairman of the department of economics, Dr. Kurt F. Flexner, attributed the cause of inflation to the Viet Nam War and the ill- conceived monetary policy in our nation. Dr. Flexner said that the operating expenses MSU had to pay interfered with the quality im- provements the administration tried to make. The administration found it hard to begin new programs to benefit the students, who once again had to face a rise in tuition costs. The faculty members were directly affected in that they were deprived of raises in their salaries which would help them meet the cost of living. When asked how students could help fight the economic problems Dr. Flexner replied that the major step was for young people to become educated in the viewpoints of each issue along with their strengths and weaknesses. One hope for a better future lies in the young people becoming educated. Without education democracy cannot win, and the future looks dim, Dr. Flexner said. He added that the most important thing students could do would be to become aware of their rights and responsibilities by voting, writing government officials and practicing good citizenship to make their voices heard. 100 Activities Teresa Wood, a junior pre-dental major from Memphis, said the increase in gasoline prices affected her most because she commutes to school. I ' m learning to conserve energy around home. I always think twice before throwing anything away, now that I ' ve become aware of the serious economic situation and the continued spiraling of prices, she commented. I have learned to do without many expensive items or to substitute them with cheaper products. I guess the economic crisis has taught me to be a wise consumer, Teresa reflected. Brad Gabriel, a 21 -year-old senior political science major from Memphis, said he was very pessimistic about the economy. High prices will be around for the rest of our generation, he said. He attributed economic ills to U.S. expenditures in the Viet Nam War. When asked about possible solutions Gabriel said, New solutions will have to be found, because in this case, history really cannot teach us anything since the current crisis is so different from the situation in the twenties. Gabriel also mentioned that he had learned to tighten up and watch his spending. If gas prices go up another twenty cents or more, I may be forced to a ride a bike or catch a bus to classes. I really don ' t expect the situation to improve, he concluded. A Memphis senior majoring in home economics, Sylvia George said she had been forced to take a part-time job to help meet inflated expenses. The part-time job market has been severely restricted because of the cutbacks in business expendi- tures. This placed an added burden on students who needed extra money to cope, Sylvia said. As a student I ' ve had to face higher cafeteria prices, because when you commute you can ' t afford to use extra gas to leave campus for lunch. Sylvia said she believed indi- viduals could help alleviate some oi ' the burdens of the slumping economy. A general cutback in consumption and the follow- through of proposed car pools arc two possibilities, according to Sylvia. Activities 101 Sidney Payne, senior political science major from Holly Springs, Mississippi, offered the opinion that the University Center should be under more student control. Things like restricting card playing to certain areas of the UC are examples of programming that do not cater to student interest. Payne thought a variety of music played continuously in the Uni- versity Center would be in the student interest. The worst problem is student apathy. When only two or three thousand out of twenty thousand students vote in campus elections, something is wrong somewhere, concluded Payne. Betty Pennington, a freshman business major from Halls, said, Homecoming was a disappoint- ment. It lacked a spirit of involve- ment. There just wasn ' t enough cooperation between different organizations and dorms on campus. Homecoming should have been talked up more by students. Betty said she would like to see more interaction between the different departments on campus. There should be more oppor- tunities for students to ask ques- tions of the faculty. Responding to proposed course requirement changes, Betty said, English requirements should be lowered from twelve to six hours, but the foreign language require- ments should be maintained. The major priority at Memphis State is sports rather than aca- demics, said James Munson, a Connecticut senior majoring in marketing. This is evidenced by President Jones going all over the country to interview prospective football coaches, but a student can ' t even get into his office to see him, Munson complained. Munson also spoke of what he called MSU ' s easiness when it comes to kicking out students with bad grades. He said, Too many instructors are anti-MSU, and it doesn ' t make for a very good learning situation because the instructor feels the need to talk down to the students. 102 Activities KIllO 1 Con StiJIDo Their Job «T5 eCOHCl V lci l 3 Granstaffl een Oiwiw reatmentJ S c Parkins Heads f-t-ipe.

During the general elections, candidates abounded, making promises and speaking on all sides of the issues in pursuit of student support. The University Center Speakers Committee brought in such notables as George Gallup, pollster; Jeanne Dixon, clairvoyant; Jessie Hill Ford, author; and Lamar Wallis, Regional Director of the Office of Economic Opportunity. The SGA, Tennessee Student Association, American Marketing Association, Pre-Legal Society and campus organizations and depart- ments within the university sponsored various lecturers and speakers who were experts in their respective fields. The Goodwyn Institute pre- sented eleven illustrated lectures. Each lecture featured a different country or section of the world, offering audiences the opportunity to share in the politics, beauty and culture of the whole world without ever leaving their seats. Candidate for governor, Lamar Alexander, makes a point. Arthur Rodbell from the National Student Association speaks at MSU. Dr. Bill DeLoach lectures on The Unclassifiable William Jones. Activities 105 The Studio Theatre in the Speech and Drama Building provided the setting for discussions, lectures and speeches on a wide variety of subj ects throughout the year. An informal and informative air characterized the Snack-n-Rap sessions where students, faculty and special guests munched doughnuts and popcorn, drank coffee and engaged in lively exchanges of knowledge and opinion. Sessions included discussions of the pros and cons of women ' s rights and the ERA, President Ford ' s pardon of former President Nixon, Soviet policy toward India by Dr. Richard Remnek of the Memphis State political science department and Professor Donelson of Vander- bilt, and the media ' s coverage of the fall elections by Dr. Richard Mahood, Dr. Michael Osborne and Henry Bark III.

Caravans ' 75 was organized to acquaint students with the pro- gramming and governing bodies of Memphis State. This forum also gave students a chance to question those in authority at MSU and to register their complaints and suggestions. Other programs sponsored by Caravans ' 75 included represen- tatives from the Ripon Society, a lecture on earthquakes, a rap session discussing the problems of foreign exchange students at MSU, a self-defense demonstration for women and exchanges about such political issues as the economy, discrimination and the future of George Wallace.

' UVO University Center A symbol of architectural excellence, the University Center offered students a place to seek and find refuge from often relentless academic problems and pressure. And this they did— en masse. Those in quest of tranquility and solitude retreated to the fourth floor study area to isolate them- selves and read or reflect. Chronic readers spent hours exploring the offerings of the bookstore, while socialites idled away entire days over seemingly endless cups of coffee in the cafeteria. Loafers nonchalantly dozed on second and third floor sofas, and those around them chatted amiably about subjects ranging from Friday night ' s date to upcoming exams. Students also collapsed in front of television sets and between walls of stereo- phonic music; others shot pool and indulged in games of air hockey. Yes, the school year was made more bearable, thanks to the University Center facilities. Without them, some would certainly never have survived. 1 10 Activities The Voice OfMSU EXECUTIVE OFFICERS: From the left: Frank Holmes, president; Dennis Harkness, press secretary; Sam Blustein, executive vice-president; Hugh Steckol, administrative vice-president; Bruce Williams, parliamentarian; Annette Co z,AWS president; Dean Emily Weathers, adviser; Maria Holmes, secretary.

Not pictured: Mike Fre di, Student Defender; John Lowry; Mike Booker; Elmer Holder; James Hollingshead. 112 Activities The Student Government was made up of three branches, executive, legislative and judicial. Each spring semester elections were held to select the governing body for the following year. Senators were elected on a proportional basis from the Colleges of Arts and Sciences, Business, Law, Education, Engi- neering and the University College. Executive officers and court justices were elected at large. Commissioners appointed with the approval of the Senate, were a part of the executive branch. The SGA was involved in every facet of the university. It served as a liaison between students, faculty and administrators. It worked in co-operation with almost every group and organization on campus in an effort to bring appealing activities and needed services to the university. The most important goal of the SGA was to effectively represent the needs of students at Memphis State. To do this, it recognized the need for a viable organization with the manpower capable of articulat- ing student needs and the influence to make those in authority listen and act. The SGA maintained a full Senate and demanded involvement and dedication in all branches. A Constitutional Revision Committee was formed to investigate ways to make the SGA a more efficient body. While reorganizing itself, the SGA Court was involved in revising and updating the traffic rules pamphlet and was successful in getting the color code for parking lifted one hour earlier in the afternoons. The Court greatly expanded its role, allowing students to appeal disciplinary decisions decided against them. The Court was also instrumental in obtaining new parking facilities and spaces marked exclusively for small cars. During Homecoming week the SGA sponsored Homecoming elections and, before the game, a massive pep rally. An Apprecia- tion of Students Night was held in an effort to draw 1 0,000 students to the Homecoming game. Pom poms were distributed free by the SGA. Under the leadership of Mike Brady, Spirit Commissioner, the SGA greatly encouraged school spirit.

Candidates for SGA President, Al Madonia, Edwin Reed and Frank Holmes address students on the mall. Beginning at registration, the SGA proved it was working for students by distributing booklets containing discount coupons and information about Memphis. A Book Co-op sponsored by the SGA meant savings in both money and energy to students who availed themselves of its services. The SGA also presented a $50 bond to Miss MSU, held a parlia- mentary procedure workshop, arranged for WTGR to be piped into the University Center, made it possible for Dean ' s List students to receive a certificate for their achievement, put a student on the Tennessee Board of Regents, installed more lighting outside the UC and had spot signs placed around the campus to aid new students and visitors. Activities 1 15 Many minority students en- countered problems which were virtually unknown to their peers. Difficulties such as discrimination, frustration and adapting to cultural differences were just a few of these problems. The aim of the Black Student Association was to help the black students gain strength to face and overcome these problems. The fellowship of a large number of members partially accomplished this goal, along with activities which gave members enriching experiences. The BSA reached its goals through democratic elections of officers, its annual Unity Con- ference, splash parties and hosting visiting speakers from the com- munity. This year the BSA was under the leadership of the following officers: Jackie Parker, President; Yolande Mosley, Communications Chair- man; Stanley Tyler, Financial Chairman; Janice Moore, Education Chairman; Robert Dubose, Public Relations Chairman; Willie Rhodes, Program Chairman; Khrystal Shipp, Recreation Chairman. BSA Aims For Strength President Jackie Parker proofreads a copy of the BSA ' s African Express. Democratic processes are vital functions of the BSA. 1 6 Activities AWS — Sounding Board For MSU Women As AWS president, Annette Cole also serves on the executive staff of SGA. Annette Cole, president, and Barbara Schmitz, vice-president, make plans for the St. Jude Blood Drive. The Associated Women Students was not a militant feminist group aiming to destroy the system, nor was it aiming to be so harmonious as to be almost non-existent, to carry the banner of to be seen but not heard . Its aim was to represent the interest of all Mem- phis State women by means of programs and services. This organization ceased to exist at MSU after the ' 74- ' 75 school year. It was written out of the SGA constitution. Its aims and dreams did not vanish although the organization did. Its successes as well as failures built a framework of involvement for MSU women. Activities ] 17 Phoenix rises atMSU Memphis State ' s English department published its periodical, Phoenix, during the spring semester. Phoenix provided a format for MSU students to display their talents and ideas. Contributions were solicited from all students, but a majority of those responding were from creative writing, journalism or art classes. Emphasis was placed on quality by the student editor and the two faculty advisers. Professional layouts, printing and photos were the goals of the Phoenix staff. Exercising his duties as adviser, Jackson Baker suggests a change in format to Mark Bosak as Gordon Osing watches. Gordon Osing expresses the purpose of Phoenix to Jackson Baker and Mark Bosak. Mark Bosak proofs a unique cover design for Phoenix. 118 Activities DeSoto — Hard Work Pays Off Identifying half-hidden faces at 3 a.m., writing creative copy with a blank mind, wishing that God had never meant for pictures to have captions, hunting and pecking on dilapidated typewriters, cropping pictures into impossible spaces— these were the causes of an array of ailments for DeSoto staffers. Bloodshot eyes, staffers ' hysteria, ingrown typists ' nails, writer ' s cramp and cropper ' s elbow were a few of the plagues of deadline nights, but there were positive results. The DeSoto staff was rewarded with a first class ACP rating for its 1974 edition. At least the case of Alka-Seltzer lasted through the final deadline.

There was the Hemingway nut (Brad Warthen), the Manilow nut (Kini Kedigh), the Dylan nut (Jasmine Malvezzi), the money nut (Clay Bailey) and other assorted nuts. Serving as successive chief nuts during the fall semester were Susan Taylor Madonia and Dan Hender- son. Henderson, as editor, carried the Helmsman staff into the spring. The paper underwent several changes in layout format, headline styles and logo.

Founded as a fortnightly in 1966 to give journalism majors practical experience in reporting and editing, it became a weekly in 1972. The Statesman received collegiate journalism ' s highest honor, the All-American rating, during the ' 73- ' 74 school year from the Associated Collegiate Press. Statesman staffers also captured four of six awards given last spring by the Memphis Gridiron Club. Focusing on depth and background stories, the Statesman covered day-to-day activities of the universi- ty faculty, student body, staff and administration.

The executive staff was greatly aided by volunteers who assisted in such projects as the Halloween Flea Market, which was attended by an estimated 1,000 people. Mrs. Joseph Hardison, Jr., served as the chairman of the community volunteer group called FRIENDS. One of the major projects of the year included the airing of Fe eling Good, a weekly series which was aimed at adults and children and designed to improve their physical and mental health. WKNO crews also broadcasted on radio 91.1 FM seven days a week. Special interest programs ranged from Jazz Unlimited and The Young Career to European Review. 126 Activities WTGR Manned only by students, WTGR broadcasted another year of closed circuit programming from the Speech and Drama Building. The disc jockeys provided enter- tainment for the listeners, while work at the station gave them first hand experience to supplement their studies in the fields of radio, television and broadcast journalism. In addition to a variety of musical selections, interviews with guest speakers and announcements of public interest were aired.

STATE UNIVERSITY PRESS Utivities 131 Students Gain Independence Residence halls meant indepen- dence, new friends and a different atmosphere for the residents of Memphis State dorms. Many freshmen looked to their indepen- dence with bubbling enthusiasm. However, they soon came to learn that it was easier for Mom to do the laundry, that the prices of food really were inflated and that loud stereos could be annoying. After cases of homesickness subsided, most dorm residents felt that the advantages of independence still outweighed the problems of living away from home. While doing her laundry Phyillis Sparks asks, This is independence?

For some this meant seeking solitude and a place where medi- tation was possible. Others felt more comfortable in a lively atmosphere where they could be in the company of friends. 136 Activities h 138 Activities Activities 139 For some busy and industrious students, studies occupied much of their time spent out of class. Oftentimes the desire to excel in class called for the sacrifice of leisure time. Sooner or later, however, everyone seemed to take advantage of the opportunity to relax. 140 Activities ■B Mw  ■.: fef|f v r Rh ' Tl $ ' 1 1 , Sj § ' j _ ■ 1 1 JmLt.fr s 1 1 f J Hi 4 mSmr ' J ' ' — 1 ■ HHbHj| •V i V ■• S r ' ' • - s2 I, y ! IMfcL Activities 141 Sports 142 143 Four years at Memphis State University are quite often respon- sible for great changes in the individual who comes here. From the time of his entrance until the time of his graduation, the student is in a environment set apart. When entering this strange new existence, the student needs a secure basis from which to expand in this new life. One factor which the student can rely on is the sports program. 144 Sports Spoils 145 146 Sports 1 ' %, « - ' ii Probably the most important phase of athletics is the varsity level. For the athlete, such sports provide a means to improve his expertise in his chosen field, whether for a future professional career or merely for personal gratification. For the student, they provide a chance to mingle with other students in an informal setting. For the university, they serve to instill pride and school spirit into the student body. For the community, they offer an opporutnity to see students as real people. Intramurals are the other part of MSU ' s athletic program. They are important because they give the student a chance to compete in a spirit of sportsmanship and friendship. MSU ' s sports program offers the student so mething stable to grasp. Because of the turmoil which accompanies four years of college life, a varsity team to support and a chance to compete with fellow students can teach the student to accept defeat or victory, helping him to grow physically and mentally. Sports 147 Tigers Win Second Straight Over Ole Miss David Fowler (7). Van Anderson (51), Steve McCarty (48), David Ligon (55), Ken Niemaseck (64). • After a successful 8-3 season last year, the experienced Memphis State football team returned in ' 74 hoping to improve on its record. Under Coach Fred Pancoast, the Tigers had many offensive and defensive lettermen returning, including starting quarterback David Fowler. The Tigers met Louisville in the season opener.

This season the Tigers again had a chance to prove themselves— this time under a new head coach and with a number of new players. The preseason polls showed confidence in the young team, ranking them in the top 20. Some sportswriters thought more highly of the Tigers, one rating them fourth. Wayne Yates, who moved to the position of head coach in the spring of ' 74, found two new assistant coaches— M. K. Turk, former head coach of Copiah-Lincoln Junior College, and Vertes Sails, previously head coach at Melrose High School in Memphis.

Paul Bannon, the amazing freshman who shat- tered the old school record in the three and six mile runs earlier in the season, sustained a stress fracture in his right tibia and was out for the remainder of the season. Reuben Fairfax, who injured himself in the Tennessee Intercollegiate Athletic Championship, was not fully recovered, and a lack of field event depth also contributed to a poor performance. Suffering from the loss of Ed Hammons, the sprint attack was weak. A 440-yard relay team, which previously set a national record at 39.6 seconds, was struggling to cut its time to the lower forties. All was not gloom, however. In addition to Bannon ' s two records, freshman Gary Garner set a school record in the 880, with a 1:51.2.

Accordingly, the Greek system has also changed to meet the changing needs of college students. Even though membership in a sorority or fraternity may mean parties and a good time, it offers much more to the individual-true friendship and individual growth through interaction with both Greeks and independents. 196 Greeks 1 % r 1 r i 1 1 m J Through membership in a Greek letter organization, a student learns to accept the responsibility that comes with being involved. The Greek system teaches pride in competition and the acceptance of victory or defeat. The busy Greek learns unself- ishness, making him ready to stand on his own for his own. 200 Greeks The Seventies have brought a period of constant change for the college student. The Greek life helps him meet this change, beginning with pledgeship and working for him and with him through his college career.

He cannot be a part of every facet, yet he still holds his position as an individual. He is typical of a whole. What he is and what he participates in is a part of what he will become. College is a beginning, a turning point, and a finish. Every part is a continuous learning process. The university is a greater organization structured in unlimited areas of interests. There are as many interests as there are students. Organization is a key to how we work for others and ourselves. The organization or club is a smaller version of the give-and-take one experiences in the outside world. 256 Organizations to J Organizations 257 A professional club may provide insight into one ' s chosen field of work. The honoraries create incentive to achieve a high scho- lastic record. Service organizations profit not only the individual in self-fulfillment, but also give an opportunity to perform services for others in the community. Religious groups bring those of a certain faith together in worship and fellowship. A special interest club concentrates on teaching a specific ability. 258 Organizations An organization is much like the growth of an individual. The struggle of beginning, the increased growth and activities, and the maturation into an established group with a purpose. Working toward a common goal, the students benefit from the organi- zation. But each student must also contribute part of himself. It is a learning experience. A living experience. It is future tense in the present.

A kaliedoscope of committees were united under the UP Executive Board to coordinate the educational, recreational, cultural and social functions of Memphis State. University Programs was funded by Memphis State, but all the deci- sions and the work were performed by students. Formed to train students in areas related to their career, the organization welcomed each stu- dent who volunteered his services. Each committee was designed not only to give its members experience in various areas of interest, but to reach beyond and help every student. The committees co-sponsored program with individual academic departments and also worked closely with stu- dent organizations such as SGA, BSA, RHA and the Chinese Student Association to organize university activities. Thirty-five Hostesses were chosen during fall rush to help with recep- tions, conferences, ticket taking and seating at events sponsored by UP. They served not only as a Uni- versity Program committee, but also as coordinators and sponsors of the university and community as a whole. Film Committee The UP Executive Board, comprised of committee chairmen, coordinated the activities of the entire organi- zation. Sleuth, Clockwork Orange and Paper Moon were among the films shown for a small admission fee by the UP Film Committee. A Classical Series of films, featuring flicks such as Never Give a Sucker an Even Break and King Kong, were presented in the Psychology Lecture Hall and were free to MSU students.

Organizations 297 People 300 People Watch a freshman who missed pre- college counseling struggle through registration, trying to pull cards, then being forced to forget his pre- arranged schedule to form another one from what ' s left. Watch a sophomore, remembering when he went through that hectic registration, chuckling at the freshman who does not know what to do, where to go, or what to write a check for next. Watch a junior have to juggle only a couple of classes to get what he wants, then watch a senior get every class card he needs. Watch a freshman sitting in his seat five minutes early for an 8 a.m. class, and watch a sophomore slide in ten minutes late. Watch a junior cut class, and watch a senior stroll in at 11 a.m. for his first class of the day. People 301 302 People Watch a freshman hike for two miles to the campus from his parked car, and watch a senior drive to the center of the campus and pull up to the white curb. Watch a freshman pull out his map the first days of school, and watch other students telling him, Yeah, it ' s that building over there. Watch a freshman drift through the Student Center to check it out, then watch the juniors, sophomores and seniors sit down to make themselves at home. Watch the freshman, watch the seniors. Watch the sophomores and the juniors. They are experiencing different freedoms, asking different questions, adjusting to different situations and meeting different demands. They are all in different stages of university life. All these moments are a part of the university experience, hap- pening to different people ... in different places ... at different times.

Everywhere. The wind is playing Gently With my hair. Thunder ' s roaring Loudly Over there; Not yet near enough To scare. The air smells sweet Smells clean. The earth ' s small patches of color Sprinkled on green Are whispering . . . The squirrels in the trees Are chattering . . . The birds in their nests Are chirping . . . And all the earth around me Is singing — Of the coming rain. - By Peggy Woods 344 Ideas By Willie Cole By Lois Tragarz ldeas 3 45 My old friend, I met you when the world was new to me, In the childhood of my life it was only you I could see, You were always there to help me when the air was so cold, Once again I offer my hand for you to take ahold. As a teenager of fourteen my parents couldn ' t understand, Why 1 didn ' t want to move to a new and different land, They said better things in life for me were on the outside, You were the only one I knew who had a place to hide. In the manhood of my life I went out on my own, But without the shelter you gave me I felt so alone, I tried so hard to forget what I left behind, New ideas, success, or fortunes was what I tried to find. The years went by quickly, too quickly for me to know, That the paths I was following were the wrong ways to go, But now that I ' ve returned I can plainly see, That time altered you as it did to me. The outside world has aged you my old friend, I wished that I had never left you for your pain is great, You sheltered me but not yourself from a world of hate, But the time has come for us, my home, to meet our peaceful end. - By D. R. Powers 346 Ideas By Larry Plant By Ron Spielburger So much to say So little coming out So much I feel That you ' ll never see So much I know That you ' ll never hear So much to do So little done Before the setting Of the sun. - By Peggy Woods By Cindy Ehrlich Ideas 347 My birth was into a world that ' s hard and cold, Where to be a success you must sell your soul, I ' ve struggled for an identity that ' s easy to hold, But my life has been empty like a bottomless hole. These inherited chains that have binded me, Can never be broken so I ' ll never be free, What I want in life cannot be found, As long as these chains have me bound. I ' m proud of what I am, never been a ashamed, Even though I ' ve lost more ground than I could gain, - By Willie Cole My heart is troubled and my mind is confused, These chains make me feel tied and misused. My inherited chains came with my race, My way of life, the color of my face, I ' m not judged by my feelings from within, People only judge me by the texture of my skin. I ' m proud of my heritage, it makes me strong, At least somewhere there ' s a place where I belong, But still these inherited chains cause so much pain, And the hate in this world will make them always remain. - By D. R. Powers 348 Ideas KBXBSSwBVI mKk : __ r s - By Lois Tragarz Ideas 349 $g® m -. ?aya2« ir$i. m I planted a seed of doubt today Small, but poignant. Hope that it isn ' t smothered With fear, Drowned in tradition. Pray that it will grow Into questions, And then a never-ending Search For answers. - By Peggy Woods Wmm f awe-s ) -c£ ow r i By Willie Cole 350 Ideas By Larry Plant There you are all by yourself, Because of your age the world has stuck you on the shelf, Knowledge that you ' ve gathered for so many years, Cannot be shared for it falls on blind minds and closed ears. - By Larry Plant The laughter, the tears, the confidence, the fears, You ' ve known them all before, And still you ' ll learn more through the years, Until you ' ve closed behind that locked, darkened door. You wander aimlessly just trying to stay alive, The memories of your past are your constant drive, The wonders in the world you ' ve seen and can ' t comprehend, Have made life more suitable, made you lose your friend. An old man is known only by his age, His tired brittle bones in a wrinkled cage, There seems to be no use for him when he ' s old and grey, And his death will bring sorrow but be forgotten the next day. - By D. R. Powers ldeas 351 By Sylvia Turner - By Patty Kennedy By Stephanie Dewey ne cha A year comes and g It brings new life, new experiences f- Times of vitality, To spread his arms, To feel the earth below him, To watch the sky above. 3T JkvGm 354 Closing ■ - v Closing 355 Times to pause, To listen, To read, To think. 356 Closing Closing 357 Times to reach out to a brother, To find a familiar face, a sympathetic ear, To make a new acquaintance, To find a friend. 358 Closing Closing 359 360 Closing Closing 361 Times to feel, To know joy— and sorrow, To face discouragement And still, to hope. « ' XT, I ■ : ' 362 Closing -M •■v..
