Miami reacted by becoming the home of three new fraternities within a few years, thereby establishing its own Greek tradition and earning the name Mother of Fraternities. Thus, not only did Miami fail to receive support from Eastern colleges, Miami reinterpreted the transplanted Eastern heritage. Another factor that makes Miami a school with strong traditions is that the people who built and attended the early school believed in it. Miami had difficulty opening. A grammar school was started in 1811, but Miami did not open as a full college until 1824. Even then, finances were shaky. For a variety of reasons, the school was forced to close in 1873, and it did not open again until 1885. The STRONG The college of Old Miami .con- sisted of three buildings; Harri- son, Elliot and Stoddard Halls. administrators, faculty, students, and alumni who supported Miami throughout its years of difficulty grew to love the school. Consequently, they expressed their beliefs by establishing traditions 1. traditions which reflected Miami's peculiar situation. Russian Jews and Miami University are not so different as one might think. Each group has a history which defines what it means to be a member of that group today. Like those associated with Judaism, those associated with Miami should investigate their heritage and learn their traditions. For a knowledge of the school's heritage certainly adds to the meaning of being a member of the Miami community.

Spring and Patterson. Prior to the The Slant Walk originally ended at Northeast and Southeast Halls, where Miami students lived dur- ing the days of Old Miami. Between 1880 and 1890, Miami's faculty was called the Dude Fac- ulty. These men brought a bit of scandal to the campus, for they were rumored to have danced in every capital of Europe. Even though they earned their degrees at Princeton and Yale, their social reputation was greater than their academic reputation. A LIBERAL ARTS In 1824, Miami began its first year of college instruction. The curriculum was strictly classical, consisting of Greek, Latin, algebra, modern geography, and Roman history. Students recited their lessons in class and spent long afternoons preparing them. By the next year it was realized that may students were interested in training for more practical professions. Miami decided to offer a course of study leading to certification instead of a degree. Run by the newly created English Scientific Department, the curriculum offered applied mathematics, modern language, and political economy. By this time students were receiving a smattering of botany and geology lectures, and a few lessons in English composition. Professor McFarland introduced practical engineering and astronomy. But most of the students' time was still spent reciting the classics. In an attempt to bolster enrollment in the 1870's, President Hepburn liberalized the academic organization. Written examinations replaced the previously oral tests. An English Language and Literature Department was added. Still enrollment dropped, and in 1873 Miami closed its doors. When Miami reopened in 1885, the old curriculum was noticably outdated. President Thompson re-established the BS. degree, and again made modern language an option. The departmental honors program that is still in use today was established. A Normal School for women was established in 1902. The college was integrated with the regular university. Only the methods courses were separate. The William McGuffey Lab School was established to provide experience for those in the Normal School. Celebrating the 100th anniversary of college instruction, President Hughes set forth his program for the school's second century. It called for the retention of personal relationships between students and faculty, and gave ample provisions for superior students. Hughes felt it necessary to emphasize spiritual values over material things. Miami University was the first school to develop a tradition of the artist-in-residence, that was soon a APPROACH national trend. In 1920, President Hughes appointed Percy MacKaye as working poet to be supported entirely by the university. The position had no obligations or teaching duties; its sole purpose was to support the creation of art. Alfred Upham became president in 1929, bringing with him the desire to keep Miami unified and personal. He established the adviser system to give students a personal relationship with the faculty. Separate schools were created for Fine Arts and Business Administration in order to keep their organization small and personal. During World War 11, Miami prepared enlisted personnel by providing. programs in radio training and flight training. War emergency courses, including map-reading and first aid, were offered to all students. In the summer of 1953, Miami University Abroad scheduled its first European tour, a season of travel and study which could be used for credit. The idea caught on, and in 1968 Miami opened its branch in Luxembourg. President Millett felt the need to insure all Miami's students a broad base of knowledge. In 1953, he established the Common Curriculum, Which laid down With the turn of the century Miami became CO-educational. Here, two of the original coeds study for an exam. Miami used to have a 27 member board of trustees which controlled the school's affairs. Between 1965 and 1968 state laws gradually re- duced the number of members to nine. general requirements for all divisions to keep students from specializing too narrowly. Later, the CC was modified to become the University Requirement. The most welcome change in requirements in Miami's history was the removal of the phys-ed requirement in 1969. Surprisingly, the result was an increase in this department's enrollment. To keep from losing students, the department had added new courses in bicycling, hiking, and self-defense. The university soon had to place a limit on phys-ed credits. In the last 20 years, Miami has experimented with new teaching methods, has developed the innovative Graduate and Undergraduate Fellowship Programs, has experimented with trimester and quarter calendars, and has set up the interdisciplinary Western Program. Last year Miami was accredited full status as a mature university, responsible only to itself in insuring the quality of the university program, - Janice Gott TEN DOLLARS PER SESSION - In 1903, President Benton orga- building tit is known to present nlzed 3 P019 RUSh to replace Its Miamians as Elliott HalD.

A twin dormitory, Southeast Hall, was built in 1835 for $9,500. This dorm is now known as Stoddard Hall. For junior and senior men, Southeast provided the lux- ury of private rooms, whereas Northeast Hall necessitated the housing of two or three men per room. Furniture costs for a single room usually averaged near $3.50. For this price, the student could obtain two Chairs, a table, a bed, a washstand and a quilt. The first Miami students were called to a study period at 5:00 am. Except for meals and two exercise Dorm life at Old Miami bore lit- tle resemblance to present resi- dence living. After many problems were finally resolved, the first clas- ses at Miami University met in November of 1824. There were two sessions in the academic year, with a total expense of $93. The fees in- cluded $10 per session for tuition, $1 per week for board and $5 ses- sional fee for servant's hire. The rooms were let to the students at no extra expense, but all the fur- nishings were provided by the students. In 1829, another building sepa- rate from Old Main was built. Offi- cially named Washington and Clin- ton Hall, the dormitory was more commonly known as the N ortheast periods, the men continued their studies through the day until even- ing prayers. Classes were sum- moned by trumpet, since a bell was thought to be an extravagance at this early stage in Miami's histo- ry. Meals could either be bought at the University Inn -- a dining room within Southeast Hall - or the students could buy food and prepare it in their rooms. Some- times the men bought supplies col- lectively; corn meal and potatoes could be had for 12V2QE per bushel, and meat was priced at 11kg: per pound. Rules for living became much stricter during the 1840's. George Junkin, an unpopular president at this time, initiated several regula- tions for the Miami men: written evidence of good moral character was made mandatory at the time of application; a pledge to obey all the rules of the university was taken by all enrolled students; the faculty designated the amount of time to be spent in study and reci- tation; all students were forbidden to attend any ball, dancing school, theatrical exhibition, or horse race. The 1850's saw a relaxation of these regulations, and as a result, the students became more careless with their living areas. The condi- tion of the rooms became so bad that a dorm ledger was kept, de- The May Pole Dance was a tradi- tionally festive event held in front of Hepburn Hall. The program was discontinued in the late 1930's. scribing the initial appearance of the room. Rent for the rooms was charged - $5 a semester. In Old Main, one student was given free room in exchange for ringing the newly acquired college bell. Besides serving as sleeping quar- ters, the dormitory rooms were used as meeting places for campus organizations - including early Greek societies. Several fraternities were founded in dorm rooms, and then met regularly to discuss plans. In addition, the powerful literary societies of Old Miami often used dorm rooms for impromptu gather- ings. Dorm life expanded beyond the limits of prayer meetings and Sun- day worship to include new ac- tivities. As the age of Old Miami came to a close, team sports such as cricket and baseball broadened the social atmosphere of dorm life, and served as a prophesy 0f resi- dential life of the New Miami to- day. - Brad McConnell At the turn of the century, Miami men relaxed by playing cards be- tween study periods. On the roof of a home on Spring Street, two co-eds frolicked in the first snow of 1922. Music has always been popular at Miami. This band represents the continuance of that tradition in the early twentieth century. Women entered the Miami sports scene in 1907 with their own bas- ketball team. Cap Stone was their coach. FORE RU N N E ORGANIZATIONS This derbied group represents the Miami bicycle club, which was popular during the 1890's. Now that there are 4,000 bikes on cam- pus, there is no club. The STUDENT office was housed in Irvin Hall during the 1950's. The STUDENT moved to its present office when the Univer- sity Center opened in 1957. The Women's Recreation Associa- tion Lodge was built in 1936 on a 22 acre site off Oxford-Milford Road. The building is at present used by university organizations for workshops and seminars. The most important organiza- tions of Old Miami were the liter- ary societies. Founded in 1825, one year after the arrival of Miami's first students, The Erodelphian and the Union Literary Societies pre- dominated the extrawcurricular ac- tivities of the campus. Origionally, the members of these organiza- tions were men interested in ca- reers of law, teaching, or religion. The societies rounded out their course of preparation by develop- ing skills in debate and critical analysis. President Bishop aided the liter-a ary societies in their formative period by providing quarters in Old Miami. These rooms served as debate halls and meeting places for the groups. Each year, the societies accepted new members from among the student population, and invited well-known politicians and other important persons to accept membership in the organization. The Erodelphians, for example, were able to boost the memberw ship of Washington Irving, Henry Clay, Andrew Jackson. Great rivalry existed between the two groups. Not only did they Vie for student membership, but the societies also competed for greatest university recognition and favor. In order to advance their standing in this latter, the Union Literary Society commissioned Horace Harding to produce a portrait of President Bishop, which hung above the doorway totheir quar- ters. Consequently, the Erodeln phians were in a great quandery as to a course of action which would allow them to out do their rival so- ciety. They arranged for the mold- ing of a bust of the President, and thus managed to hold an equally favorable place with Bishop. During the first president's turn of office, the literary societies ob- tained a permit to become separate from the administration and the state. This action was not found to be desirable by several of: the fac- ulty members, and was the first time that the groups faced any major campus dissatisfaction. Nevertheless, the literary societies continued to hold a strong place in the lives of the Old Miami students. Discussions were held on the relevence and significance of classical literature, and devate of current affairs was a favorite soci- ety occurance. Each year, the Union and a Erodelphian groups sponsored exhibitions, at which time speakers from other parts of the country were invited. to spend time with the members. One major disagreement be- tween the societies and the admin- istration involved the scheduling of anniversary speakers. The uni- versity had had a regulation which stated that all Visiting guests to the campus were required to be ap- proved by the administration. Be- cause of the literary societies' in- dependence from Miami, they re fused to comply with the regula- tion, and therefore set the stage for a shaky rapport With the universi- ty. When, after three years of re fusal to submit to the newly emerg- ing Greek letter fraternities. Certainly, though, the literary societies had a great deal of influ- ence in the formation of present Miami organizations, most notably the fraternities. Like their Greek successors, the literary societies re- villed in secrecy, in pride for their group, and in the utilization of symbols, in this case roses,for the identification of the societies. When New Miami opened, the literary socieites had, for most purposes, lost their former stand- ing, and had been supplanted by the now-dominat fraternity sys- tem. However, the influence of these literary societies has been greatly felt by other campus groups. - Brad McConnell Miami Yip Yip Miami Yo Ro Boomerang Boomerang Ho Ang Ho Eureka Miami Sis Boom Bah Miami Varsity Rah Rah Rah. While the lyrics which cheer the Redskins have changed over the years, the spirit of Miami athletics today echoes the enthusiasm of days gone by. From the first football game with the University of Cincinnati in 1881, to the MAC title holders of 1976 -- athletics at Miami remain deeply rooted in tradition. At the start of Redskin athletic competition, the President of the University was more than an en- thusiastic fan; He was an impor- tant member of the starting line up. President Warfield is remem- bered for many contributions to the academic area of the university but his initiation of the athletic program may well be one of the most significant and lasting of his efforts. Along with Professor Brideman, President Warfield started the first football squad, and thus a great Miami tradition was born. Presi- dent Warfield was unable to par- ticipate in the first Redskin com- petition due to a knee injury, but his moral support led to a success- ful athletic program. Soon competi- tion would be limited solely to student, and faculty would be re- signed to the roles of coach and fans, but for a time, adminis- trators, professors, and students worked side by side on the football field as well as in the Classroom. At first, the goal of athletic com- petition was Viewed as a construc- tive valve for releasing the pres- sures of student life. Again, little has really changed from the cam- pus of 1881 to 1976. It was noticed that with the rise of organized sport, no more sheep were carried into the Classroom, no cattle were turned into Chapel and there wers no more racoon fights staged in the dorms. But soon the merits of intercol- legiate athletic competition were more fully recognized and the pro- gram moved into a higher realm of progress. By 1895, an athletic field was laid by a surveying class. A one-half mile track was prepared along with a baseball diamond and a football field. One year later, $25,000 was appropriated for a new gymna- sium. In 1899, the athletic associa- tion held a field day, with baseball, track and tennis adding to the growing list of Miami sports. The first full-time football coach joined the staff in 1906 and thus launched another Miami tradition. The Cradle of Coaches became a symbol of excellence, and the many avenues of competition were ex- panding to demonstrate the versa- tility of sports at Miami. By this time athletics had grown from a Redskin squad of professor student football enthusiasts, to en- compass both indoor and outdoor baseball, tennis, basketball, golf, track, wrestling, ping pong and womens basketball. Yes, Miami had a place for the woman athlete. In order to partici- pate in any sport, women had to meet certain standards of athletic proficiency, and in 1913, the female athlete was required to complete a five mile walk in one and one half hours. She was quite different from the Miami woman athlete of today, who can compete on any number of intercollegiate After Miami defeated Purdue for the nationwide upset of the year, the crowd advanced uptown to celebrate.

Although Miami places high values on the traditions that have developed since the first football game in 1881, Changes and prog- ress have been considerable. In terms of both function and size the $25,000 gymnasium has long been outgrown. Withrow Court, ' Millett Hall, Billings Natatorium and Phillips Hall are insufficient for the ever-expanding needs of athletic competition. With the ice arena nearing completion, the athlete has yet another facility in which lies the potential of set- John Pont returns his lst col- legiate punt for a TD, in 1949.

Throughout the history of ath- letic growth, a high-degree of ex- cellence has been achieved, and the trophies and placques lining the halls serve as convincing evi- dence. In 1952, sprinter James Gordon made Miami's name well-known for both athletics and academics. Bill Mullikan was another example, When eight years later he led the world's swimmers in the 200-meter breast stroke. Bob Schul as the Winner of the 5,000-meter race at Tokyo, in 1964 added to the grow- ing list of famous Miami athletes. The athletes of '76 are by no means outdone by their predecessors, as witnessed by the three Redskin football stars chosen in the pro draft. Miami remains rooted in the traditions stemming from the first football team: they remain unal- tered despite the growth and de- velopment of today's nearly- professional organization. - Chris Jahoda 11 The history of Greek societies at Miami University, the Mother of Fraternities , spans 140 years. Originally, fraternities were Closely related to the literary organiza- tions, such as the Erodelphian So- ciety and the Miami Union. In 1835, two new initiates of Alpha Delta Phi fraternity opened a chapter at Miami, and was thus the first fraternity west of the A1.- legheny Mountains. The Alpha Delts were soon joined by three Miaminfounded fraternities, known as the Miami Triad. John Knox, president of the Union Giterary? Society founded the Beta Theta Pi fraternity in 1839, and Robert Morrison began the Phi Delts Theta fraternity in North Hall in 1848. The Phi Delts took a pledge against the use of alcohol and, at the meetings, reprimanded The Kappa Kappa Gamma are en- gaging in party festivities in 19570 The Kappa chapter was estab- lished in 1940. 12 The lower end of High Street was the location of Old Frat. Row. The Deke's, Sigma Chi's and Phi Delt's were the proprieters of the original houses. Violators of this oath. Three of- fenders were expelled from the fra- ternity, and they, along with Kappa Chapter of Delta Kappa Ep- silon in 1852. The Dekes divided over an election of a poet t0 the Erodelphian Society, and in 1855, splinter group formed the Sigma Chi torginally Sigma PhD fraterni- ty, the third member of the Triad. In 1868, Delta Upsilon joined the growing Greek community. In 1906, Dean E.E. Brandon and William H. Shideler established a non-fraternity association. The group derived its name, Fre-nom com or Phrenecon, from a combie nation of Miami Friends, Non- fraternity, and Miami Com- rades. By 1916, the Phrenecon As- sociation had evolved into the Phi Kappa Tau fraternity. In the early days of fraternities, the groups met in various mem- bers' rooms. They later rented rooms from the university and Ox- ford businessmen. By 1909, Miami offered to lease land on lower High Street to the fraternities. The Phi Delt's, Deke's, and Sigma Chi's all built houses there, thus creating Miami's first fraternity row. After World War I, a new fraternity row sprang up when Delta Tau Delta and Sigma Nu built houses on Tal- lawanda Avenue. A fraternity square developed with the con- struction of houses by Phi Kappa Tau, Delta Upsilon, and Sigma Alpha Epsilon. As academic build- ings spread further south on High Street, the Phi Delt's, Deke's, and Sigma Chi's moved to new houses. Not long after Miami became coeducational, sororities joined the fraternities of the Greek system. Fighting for the league champi- onship, the Pike's scare again. The Greeks have played an imporn tant role in the continuation of in- tramural sports. Founded STET in 1902, Delta Zeta was the first sorority on cam- pus. By 1920; it had been joined by Delta Delta Delta, Chi Omega, and Alpha Omicron Pi. The 1930's saw a dozen sororities 0n Miami's campus. Like fraternities and liter- ary societies, sororities first met in Classrooms. They now lease suits on the first floors of Hamilton, Richard, and MacCracken Halls. 1 , Today, one out of ten fraternities .. ' . .. i. 9. . .

The usual response is a patient, amused shake of the head and the obvious answer that Oxford 18 Miami University. There was no Oxford before the chartering of Miami University in 1809. When the surveyors arrived in 1810, the total population con- sisted of several squatters living along the creek. The area was com- pletely forested and an Indian mound stood where Stoddard Hall is now located. The university opened officially in 1824 with twenty students. Not surprisingly, the original Slant Walk soon emerged as a well-worn dirt path from Franklin Hall, the first build- ing, to the saloons along High Street. The campaign against liquor was initiated in the first years and was finally won in 1905, after the cook from Oxford College lost his month's wages by gam- bling at one of the bars and shot himself. Oxford is now a town of 20,000 residents, most of whom are the 14,000 Miami students. Although the dimensions have changed, the dependence of Oxford on Miami remains. This is exceptionally clear in View of the fact that about half of Oxford's workers are directly employed by the university. Many businessmen rely for their exis- tence on the student trade. What other midwestern town would have five banks, five bars, two travel agencies, and a rumored seventeen stores that sell wine? Town-gown conflicts have appar- ently been few and, for the most part, minor. Several of the uptown merchants were disturbed when they learned that the new Univer- sity Center, started in 1956, was to include a bookstore and restau- rants. They felt it was unfair that their taxes should go to support competition. More recently, during As exemplified by these Pike's who often hang out outside of the Tallawanda Theater, hanging out uptown was indeed popular dur- ing the 1950's. Although the past decade has brought many transformations of High Street even during the 1960's it was Oxford's booming business district. One of the first sidewalks in Ox- ford, this elm-shaded path was built of flagstones soon after the Civil War. Professor McGuffey's octagonal desk, which he used while he was a professor at Miami. It adorned the library in Old Main for several years. the Viet Nam War protests of 1969, there was a good deal of tension between the townspeople and the students, and the leaders of the conflict conducted themselves with considerable restraint. The only property damage was one broken window, and most of the trouble was caused by Oxford citizens who overracted to what they saw as a threat of uprising. The latest con- troversial issue has been the liberalization of the liquor and marijuana laws, which many feel certain was brought on by the stu- dent vote. When both proposals passed on November 4, 1975, Ox- ford made the news for hundreds of miles around. Once known as the 3.2 capital of the world, Oxford was named Pot City, U.S.A. and sprouted a healthy crop of wine venders. Most of the businessmen inter- viewed agreed that, if it weren't for Miami, Oxford would be just another College Corners. The cul- tural events, such as lectures and concerts, the sports competitions, and the summer conventions at- tracted by Miami's facilities are a part of the force that keeps Oxford from being nothing more than a large farm town. But mentioned most often as the main advantage of living in a college town was the youthful and active spirit the stu- dents lend to Oxford. The townspeople enjoy keeping up with the happenings on campus and guessing which fad the stu- dents will come up with next. The town endured the streaking of re- cent years with surpressed amusement and surprisingly few complaints. And, as one busi- nessman pointed out, the students kept their youthful humor even during the disorders of the spring of 1969 - in protest one evening, they played volleyball under the street lights uptown. Once the situation is surveyed, one is brought to the conclusion that what was suspected is true m Oxford would not exist in any form camparable to its present state without Miami University. But the dependence is not a one way affair. Miami could not hold the affection and loyalty of its students the way that it does if it weren't for the school's location in this backwards little town that we all ridicule but deep downl truly cherish. - Ann Marshall 15 IVIIAIVII'S ARTS AND SCIENCES HAS INTEQNATIDNAL FAME Miami has always produced significant scientists. Before the school's closing, John Witherspoon Scott taught here. He developed for his courses one of the earliest chemistry textbooks. Old Miami was also the proud owner of the second observatory ever built in the United States. The stone on which the telescope mount was placed still stands at its original location outside Bishop Hall. According to CK. Williamson, Dean of Arts and Science, Miami has always played an important role in basic research. The earliest important research Miami sponsored was research into the use of X-rays From there, Miami's research program has blossomed out. Even the following partial list of current research projects is enough to indicate that Miami is quite active in this field. Dr. Hal Mattox, Botany, algal research. Dr. Jerry McClure, Botany, phenolic compounds in plants. Dr. Jnanendra Bhattacharjee, Microbiology, lysine biosynthesis in yeasts. Dr. Ivan Kochan, Microbiology, tuberculosis immunity. Dr. Gilbert Gordon, Chemistry, rates of chemical reactions. While Miami has produced; no N oble laureates, it is interesting to 16 note that several professors at this school have international reputations. All of the scientists on the above list are known nationally. Dr. Gordon has over eighty publications to his credit, and Dr. McClure has won both Humboldt and Fulbright-Hays fellowships. In addition, Dr. Heimsch of Botany has served as the president of the American Society of Botany and has edited the JOURNAL OF BOTANY. There are, of course, many others, and each of them has helped to establish Miami's reputation in the sciences. ' -w Forrest Houlette The present Hall Auditorium was once the home of 1We Merrie Players - not a medieval minstrel show, but an early theatre group of Miami University. Founded on campus in 1910 by the Public Speaking Department, Ye Merrie Players performed two plays each school year. Among their repertoire were such classics as Shakespeare's MERCHANE OF VENICE, OTHELLO, and HAMLET: Henrik Ibsen's HEDDA GABBLER: George Bernard Shaw's CANDIDA: as well as contemporary shows by American playwrights. As outgrowth of Ye Merrie Players were the Freshman Players, a group of undergraduates who performed a number of one-act plays each year in the theater known as The Towers located in the old Harrison Hall. Beginning in 1935, Ye Merrie Players , under the direction of Professors Gates and Abegglen, performed their shows for area high school students. These free performances attracted audiences bussed in from a 40-50 mile radius. Hall Auditorium, then known as Benton Hall, was often filled with 400 to 500 students, the majority of whom were experiencing live theatre for the first time. Music and dance were also very much alive at Miami during the Depression. The Artists' Series, still in operation, was established in the 1930's. During these years, 9m of professional artists, musicains, dancers, and actors were unemployed and looking for engagements. This fact enabled Miami, which was relatively sound financially, to secure many talents for a price Which would not have been possible otherwise. One of the first performers to come to Miami under the auspices of the Artists' Series was Helen Jepson, Who sang to an enthusiastic audience in Withrow Court in 1932. Other world-renowned talents followed, including Isaac Stemes, Violinist Jascha Heifetz, and the Iosse Ballet Company from Europe. The latter performed The Green Table at Miami, an anti-war satiric ballet which is still being danced worldwide. - Pam Achter pha Phi statue: To help beautify 2 Hub, Alpha Phi donated this .ititled statue in 1974.

Niswonger: Miami's effect has been two-fold.I think our most im- portant effect has been the large number of our graduates who have made successful careers for them- selves, both in regard to economics and to community service. In the first 25 years of the business school's existence, we turned out a number of C.P.A.'s, Vice- presidents, and partners in big eight accounting firms. Over our second 25 years, we've seen several presidents and chairmen of the board. Next in importance, of course, is the number of business text books that Miami professors have written. Former Dean Glos has an introductory business text books, and Professor Seibert also has a marketing text. MY AC- COUNTING PRINCIPLES just sold its three millionth copy this month, and right now I am co- authoring another text. RECENSIO: Could you tell us whether Miami has han an equally impressive record in business re- search? NISWONGER: The research done at Miami has not been as impressive as the record of our graduates. For awhile, we had the Bureau of Bus- iness Research here at Miami, but that has been consolidated at Ohio State University now. Our profes- v Paul M. Green graduated from Miami in 1926 and is now the dean of the bus- iness school at the University of II- linois. sors do research, of course, as the department's annual report shows, but we haven't produced any breakthroughs, to the best of my knowledge. RECENSIO: What are some of the accomplishments of Miami graduates? a NISWONGER: Well, Jack R. Ander- son is president of Hospital Af- filiates International. Robert F. Tenhover is a partner in Arthur An- the whole campus has an influence on our graduates 18 derson and Company, the account- ing firm. William G. Gisel is presi- dent of Bell Aerospace's Division of Textron. A RECENSIO: Mr. Howard, of the Of- fice of Public Information, indi- cated that several Miami business graduates have gone on to law school. What kind of influence have they had? NISWONGER: Considerable. Off- hand I can think of two of our people Who have gone this route. William Shank is counsel for Chemetron Corporation and Lloyd O'Hara is an attorney with Smith and Schnacke in Dayton. We've had quite a few corporate lawyers and people who have a law degree and are working with a law firm. GIIIIEIIMMENT Benjamin Harrison graduated in 1852 and was inaugurated as president on March 4, 1889. When Old Main was rebuilt in 1959, it took the name of Harrison Hall. RECENSIO: Finally, Mr. Nis- wonger, is there any way that you could characterize the effect of Miami on its business graduates? NISWONGER: Yes, I think the whole campus has an influence on our graduates. Miami has a tradi- tional collegiate atmosphere that I think has inspired our graduates to be conscientious in their work and to take part in a variety of commu- nity affairs. , - Forrest Houlette For a school established to be separate from the government, Miami certainly contributed its share of governmental figures. Charles Anderson t1833i became governor of Ohio and Charles Har- din, who graduated from Miami is the 1840's, became the governor of Missouri in 1876. 1.1. McRae t18341 was governor of Mississippi from 1854-58, and served in both the Union House of Representatives. and the Confederate House of Rep- resentatives. Robert C. Schenck and Caleb Blood Smith were two of the first members of Miami's Union Literary Society in 1825. Each worked for the nomination of Lincoln at the Republican conven- tion of 1860. Schenck later became a Brigadier General for the North and Lincoln appointed Smith to his cabinet as Secretary of the Interior. Another alumnus, Benjamin Harri- son t1852i was elected President of the United States in 1888. Miami's record as a producer of major governmental figures has diminished since the school reopened in 1885. But Miami has maintained a long record for sup- porting the government in other ways. During the Civil War, Miami provided soldiers for both the Union and the Confederacy. At the outbreak of the war, Ozro Dodds, organized the University Rifle Company. The University Rifles be- came Company B of the 20th Regi- ment, Ohio Volunteer Infantry, which saw action at Shiloh. While Company B was fighting, Professor Robert White McFarland trained a Home Guard back on the Oxford Campus. In May, 1862, this group became part of the 86th Ohio Reg- iment. From Miami also came Joseph R. Davis, nephew of Jeffer- son Davis, who became a general officer of the Confederate arrny. In the next century during the fall of 1917, troops again drilled on the Miami campus. This time they were the troops of the University Battalion. The year 1918 also found . several Miami alumni in various service positions. Henry Beckett t191D edited a service magazine at Camp Sheridan. In Paris, Guy Pot- ter Benton was in Charge of the Army Y.M.C.A. John R. Simpson t1899i was a colonel in the Army Ordinance Department. When World War II broke out, Miami took a more active role. Fisher Hall was converted into a .Navy Training School for radio operators. Several faculty members volunteered to teach war emergency courses on the Oxford Campus as well as in Dayton. As President Upham summarized the attitude on campus, College is not an escape from the responsibilities of patriotic citizens . . it is actu- ally a preparation for better ser- vice. Five thousand Miami men and women in service attested to the accuracy of his statement. Miami's most recent effect can best be summed up in the attitudes of the students graduated during 9 the 1960's. Of them, Mr. Having- hurst has said, Involvement was the aim of the most aware and con- cerned, an involvement in the troubled world as well as in the changing university . Their con- cern, whether it be over a lack of student voice in university policy or over the futility of the Vietnam War, demonstrated government. Miami, being an institution seeks the best possible world for them-. selves, helps foster this demand, and is providing graduates who can put their concerns to work in government jobs. - Forrest Houlette 19 Left: Ron Tammon's Room - the boarded windows and vacant walls will forever hold the secret of his disappearance.

The ritual of the late- night gathering in the kitchenette with a dim light glowing and muffled voices passing on the legends is part of the indoctrination to the Miami way of life. Miami's pet ghost is Ron Tammon, the student who in- explicably disappeared from Fisher Hall on April 19, 1953. He vanished only two days after a Visit from his parents and left, behind all his belongings and money. His brother, then a freshman at Miami, had no idea where he had gone. Several hundred people joined in an extensive search that lasted for weeks, only to admit defeat. Some say it was suicide, some murder, some a kidnapping, but no one knows for sure. Later that spring, many of Ron's Classmates unmistakably heard his voice singing in the nearby formal gardens, at the stroke of midnight. After col- lecting their wits, they ran toward the voice, but the in- stant they reached the gardens, it stopped. A search re- vealed nothing e no sound equipment, no trace of any- one. The second night, the voice returned, exactly at mid- night. A race to the gardens and a thorough search again were fruitless. The next day, in anticipation of another oc- curence, Ron's friends searched the gardens before dusk, then formed a ring around the gardens, and settled uneas- .20 ily for the night to see if the song would continue. As midnight approached, their bodies taut with forebod- ing, they again heard the eerie voice arise from the vacant garden. At a signal, the students rushed the garden, at which point the song abruptly ceased. As they vainly searched the garden for the third night, a tall, slender figure clothed all in white darted from behind the bushes and ran west, easily eluding all the young men. The fol- lowing night, no voice was heard. What happened to Ron Tammon? Is he dead by his own hand or others'? Does the fact that he went to Hamilton Kinstead'of the local infirmary for a routine blood test five months before his disappearance give us reason to believe he may still be alive somewhere else? Or, as many claim, is he still among us, as the ghost of Fisher Hall? Fisher Hall is closed to the students now, but in the days when it had been converted from a dormitory to a theater, Ron made his presence known. There are reports of mea- sured footsteps following a man from the third floor to the basement, although no one else was in the building at the time, and of lights dimming when the dimmer switches were off. On opening nights, the lights would go on in Ron's corridor on the second floor, despite the fact that there was no longer any electricity connected there.

Perhaps eeriest of all was the incident involving a portrait in Xa lounge! which was locked, the portrait was found to have been removed from the wall and set on the floor each time in a different place. When traced over a number of days, the pattern resembles the initials of Elias Fisher as inscribed in a diamond stick pin which he was known to have worn. The portrait was put away and the room closed for good. Though Ron Tammon's story is best known, Miami has other tales to tell. There is the case of the co-ed at Western College who often spent her evenings playing the organ in the chapel. Late one night as she played, she sensed some- one approaching her from behind. Hesitating and turning, she glimpsed a man with an empty stare moving heavily towards her. Overcoming her impulse to rush for the door, she returned quickly to her music. The madman seemed calmed by the organ, stopping in his advance to listen. The girl played on through the long night, fearing to stop, for each time she did, he came closer. The next morning, three students passing by the chapel on their way to class heard the organ and stopped to investigate. They found the girl, stillrplaying relentlessly, apparently insane, her hair turned snow-white. Later that day, a luna- tic who had escaped from the Oxford Retreat was returned to his cell; Another story tells of a student living in Oxford College in the early 1900's who was awakened late at night by a scratching at her door. Assuming it to be a prank, she went back to sleep. The next morning she opened the dOOr. to find her roommate with an ax buried in her skull e and scratch marks on the door. a Our most recent ghost is Roger Sayles, a student coun- selor shot to death in Reid Hall in 1959. Roger has since been known to show up at the SAE house, his old fraterni- ty, but has more recently appeared back at Reid. One resi- dent lately reported being surprised by a ghost-like figure standing in the lobby when she returned late one night. When questioned further, she described Roger perfectly. Many students and alumni dismiss these accounts as mere elaborations of frightened but Vivid imaginations. Admittedly, the existence of the specters would be all but impossible to prove to'cynics. Yet, how many of us can pass Fisher Hall on a solitary, moonlit walk, watch the play of the shadows on the windows, and hear the hushed voice of the wind in the trees without giving the possibil- ity a second thought? -- Ann Marshall 21 1909 l959 19763 The Miami Centennial marked a century of progress for the school and found the campus undergoing an important change. A Miami alumnus, John Shaw Billings t1857l, convinced Andrew Carnegie to start his program of library building. Carnegie offered his libraries to any English-speaking community in the world that would contribute ten per cent of the building's cost for its up- keep. The year 1906 brought an offer of $40,000; from Carnegie to build a Miami University library, on the condition that the university match the amount. Now without some dif- ficulty, Miami raised its portion of the necessary funds, and by 1909, the library was completed. Chris- tened the Alumni Library, the build- ing came into use in time to help celebrate the Centennial. The Centennial celebration itself incorporated several events which m-arked the difference between the Miami of 1809 and the Miami of 1909. Students 'Night , which began the celebration, included a parade of historical and humorous floats. The series of receptions, reunions, and exercises which fol- lowed brought old and new graduates together with current stu- dents. On Centennial Day, the Pro- gram of twenty speakers included five past presidents of Miami, in addition to Ohio's Governor Har- mon and other dignitaries. Profes- sor Brandon Mathews of Columbia and Reverend Lyman Abbot, editor of THE OUTLOOK, addressed a graduating class of 55, the largest to that date, on Commencement Day, the high point of the celebration. Along with the rCentennial cele- bration'came a group of publications dealing with the history and de- velopment of Miami. Bert S. Barlow t1893l collected information on all of Miami's alumni and produced the 'ALUMNI CATALOGUE, which gave a biographical sketch of every student who had attended Miami during its first century. Professor Upham published OLD MIAMI, a nostalgic look at the school's past. THE REAL COLLEGE, a book dis- cussing the responsibilities of the small college in the twentieth centu- ry, was. written by President Benton. . In addition, in 1907, two years ear- lier, the university printed a fac- simile reproduction of the first catalog, originally published in 1826. What better way to show the difference between old Miami and new Miami? ' The Sesquicentennial year tl959l found the campus in the midst of even greater change. Old Main was torn down and rebuilt as Harrison Hall. Laws, Culler, Dennison, Bran- don, and McFarland Halls were under construction. The Radio-TV building was rising to where the new women's gymnasium would be. A new wing was being added to Gaskill Hall to house the Audio- Visual Service. The Alumni Associa- tion sponsored the construction of the Sesquicentennial Chapel to commemorate the event. Miami now had 7,000 students enrolled at Ox- ford. But the school had also grown in another way. Three thousand more students were enrolled at off- campus centers in Norwood, Hamil- ton, Middletown, Dayton, and Pigua. Miami had thus expanded its geographical area of service several fold. A Charter Day luncheon started the Sesquicentennial celebration, and featured a seventy pound birth- day cake. A series of, lectures and discussions dealt with such topics as The Artist is American Society To- day and New Directions in the Management of Business Enter- prise . There were four lecturers on famous men born in the same year as Miami: Abraham Lincoln, Charles Darwin, Edgar Allan Poe, and Oliver Wendell Holmes. During the summer, an art exhibit dis- played The American Scene in 150 Years of American Art . The origi- nal edition of Havinghurst's THE MIAMI YEARS was published in time for the celebration. Well-wishers from outside the university also participated in the celebration. President Eisenhower and Ohio Governor DiSalle sent greetings. Secretary of the Interior Fred A. Seaton and Postmaster- General Arthur E. Summerfield Vis- ited the campus. Representative Paul F. Schenck of the Third Ohio District presented Miami with a Congressional resolution of con- gratulations, and Senator John F. Kennedy Visited the campus. A 12- cent Benjamin Harrison 'stamp printed in Miami red was issued in Oxford. Ohio automobile license plates were painted with the school colors. ' One event, however, sums up the spirit of the Centennial and the Ses- quicentennial. On June 19, 1959, the remains of President Robert Hamil- ton Bishop, first president of the university, were removed from their burial site in Cincinnati to their pre- sent location in the Formal Gardens. Old Miami was thus united with new Miami in a very appropriate way. In a time of the celebration of change, one symbol of the past and its traditions was memorialized on the growing campus. On February 7, 1976 President and Mrs. Shriver hosted a Bicentennial Ball. The event itself exceeded all expectations. The day after, those who did not attend heard reports of the warmth of the host and the host- ess, of the costumed guests, of the music, of the dancing, and of a gen- eral good time. It was a celebration intimately connected with the his- tory of the country. As a part of the nationwide Bicentennial celebration, the ball earned its place among the many commemorative events taking place this year, even those as far away as Salinas, California. But the ball was even something more. Soon after Miami was estab- lished in 1809, the township of Ox- ford was established to support it. The two have grown together over the past 167 years. They have pro- duced statesmen, businessmen, ar- tists, scientists, and educators. In- deed, one could easily say that Miami has had an effect in each of these areas quite disproportionate to its size. The Bicentennial Ball cele- brated this heritage as well as the national heritage. The Oxford heritage, the Miami heritage, the national heritage -- these three savory liquors were mixed that night into a delicious punch for the celebration. Essen- tially, it is this punch that Miami has to offer the Bicentennial celebra- tion. This punch is a strong drink - LOWER LEFT: tpg. 22 Today the Sesquicentennial Chapel serves as a- symbol of Miami's past and 'a plan Ego? of tradition.

The option took the form of the following four questions: 1. Should 6'44; beer, wine, and prepackaged .mixed drinks be sold for off-campus consump- tion? . 2. Should these same beverages be sold in taverns and restaur- ants? 3. Should spiritous liquors lover 2070 alcohoD be sold for off- premises consumption? 4. Should a state liquor store or state agency store sell spirits in Oxford? Despite the pro-Oxford commit- tee's insistent protests that A mark for the option was a mark against Oxford, election returns found that Oxford voters had approved passage of those liquor options which al- lowed package sales. The liquor re- ,ferendum which affected approxi- mately one third of the 14,701 Miami students will bring in a 14 thousand dollar annual increase of revenue to Oxford. ' . Headed by Frank K. Snyder and Larry Smith, the pro-Oxford com- fmittee represented all those against the liquor option. The committee l atieallyt gainst bar, 3 in our town contended that the passage of the liquor referendum would turn Ox- ford into a cross between Ohio Uni- versity and Kent State. One townsperson summed up their Views: Most responsible people are emphatically against taverns and bars for our town. In a community such as Oxford, more emphasis should be placed on learning and less on entertainment. That same Tuesday voters put Ox- ford on the map as the first Ohio town to decriminalize the casual possession of marijuana. Within the boundaries of a mile square, possession of 4 ounces of marijuana is a misdemeanor. The law is analagous to the new state law which creates a distinction for the casual possession of marijuana and limits the penalty to a $100 fine with no prison sentence for any number of similar offenses. It is the arresting officer's decision as to whether the state or local law will 'be enforced. The passage of the marijuana and liquor referendum demonstrates the power of the voters and Oxford's po- tential for change. 4 Franeine Sevel 27 An outsider passing through Ox- ford would inevitably ask the ques- tion Why does anybody go up- town? Freshmen year going uptown is for everyone. In fact the Whole cor- ridor usually goes together. If you're a freshman girl uptown is a great place to meet a guy. If you're a freshman guy its a little harder to meet anybody because the freshmen girls are usually looking for an up- perclassman. Some people go uptown for the Greek Life. A Visit to the Boar's Head, Al 8: Larry's or the Purity Will attest to this. Others go uptown because they want to dance or drink. Unfortu- nately the bars Close at 1:00 p.m. this means last call is at midnight and at 12:00 they start stacking the chairs. After this you can either sit under the water tower or go to Beas- ley's. No matter what your motives are uptown is a good way to escape from the pressures of classes, roommates, or romances by getting drunk. So the next time you feel the need to get away from it all journey to uptown Oxford and be prepared to ask or answer the following ques- tions: 1. What's your name? . What's your major? . Are you in a sororitylfraternity? . Where are you from? . Do you come uptown often? . Have you seen the formal gar- dens? . Do you want to go to bed? ONthUJN V A typical small town -- 3 banks, 2 theatres, a few bars, a few nice restaurants, a vol- unteer fire department, and a water tower. 28 PhotographsiLinn Howell Oxford is a university community. In a sense it is a mirror Which re- flects the attitudes and lifestyles of its students. In some ways all small towns are alike, in many ways they are each unique; Oxford is no exception. It has four hardware stores, six laun- dry and dry cleaners, Beasly's, two plant stores and The Oriental Rug Gallery. Founded in the 1960's the Oxford Retail Merchants Association repre- sents these and forty other local merchants. Because 75070 of the town's revenue is student derived, the prime objective of this organiza- tion is promotion of merchandise to students. Unlike industrial cities Which are often shaped by economic factors, the direction of the community is shaped by the students and must change as they change. TOP: Oxford, Ohio 45056.

A! win 3a m ies fwdied In an October issue of their news- paper, PRAXIS published Miami faculty and administrative salaries, after spending .five hours copying those figures available in the Presi- dent's office. While reporter-student Ken Resnick said the publication and analysis of the salaries were to show the obvious inequities between salaries and what the catalogue de- - scription says of how salaries are de- termined, President Shriver called the printing bad taste. The catalogue states that capability and merit are the basic criteria for employment. However, considera- tions of how good professors are in their discipline, how long they have been on the faculty and what their job opportunities outside the university are, should be considered, Provost David Brown noted. Shriver said keeping University salaries relatively private was analog- ous to the concern students had for keeping their own records private, as a . insured by the Buckley Amendment. N0 NEWS IS 6000 IIIWS The Miami Redskins football team will not soon forget their glorious Victory over South Carolina at the Tangerine Bowl, or their re- ,. laxing trip to see Mickey Mouse at Disney World. The Miami students will not soon forget the glorious $3,005 Carlton House Hotel bill for damage that the team also incurred. After almost a month's con- troversy from the time THE MIAMI STUDENT broke the news, until coach Dick Crum announced the damage costs at a press conference, conflicting figures had been coming out of the Comptroller's office and the sports office. Crum said he maintained a $200 damage figure in his opening statement because it was the only figure the Carlton x House gave me. The breakup included: $1,095 hotel damage, $300 of which was water damage to the hotel carpet, and an additional $1,100 for labor and clean up. Crum read a statement saying that there were approximately 300 persons in attendance and that 25 per cent of the team was not in- volved with the party.

The chance for students to ex- change ideas and cultures seemed to be lost in the maze of criticism by people like Prof. Lars Schoultz, political science, who said that the money that the students spent flying to America 1'could have been used by the poor to prevent problems that cause the making of such films as l'Torture in Brazil. The documentary was an overview of the leftist Communists and the country's dictatorship. Still under debate, the Bra- zilians may take the side of the STUDENT and sue the Univer- sity for defamation of Character. Fear Of Rape Exemplary of a national trend, Oxford experienced an increase in the number of attempted and confirmed rapes this past year. During September alone, eigh- teen sexual assaults were re- ported, whereas the same period one year before had seen a re- port of only seven such offenses. Although some metropolitan centers have obviously experi- enced a much greater number of rapes, the assault situation in Oxford is no less alarming. The police department released a composite drawing of one indi- vidual allegedly responsible for the majority of the reported rapes. Despite added lighting of campus sidewalks, many women still fear night-time walks. Until the number of rapes is reduced, the best course of ac- tion seems to be a program of awareness and defense.

Before Miami, they Vis- isted Ohio State University and the University of Cincinnati and met no trouble , Smock said, But here the word of God was discriminated against. Security responded to complaints from four professors who said they could not continue class while Smock was preaching at that location. We were told we couldn't preach without a permit. But when conflicts arise with rules, I must obey God rather than man, Smock said. How- ' ever, Miami officials said he would have been asked to move whether a permit had been issued or not. The fact remains he was speaking so loudly that he was bothering classes, said Bob Howard, office of public informa- tion. .4 Miuw Next year when the Miami Redskin center hikes the football during prac- tice, he could be surprised to find a female receiving. Well, maybe not next year. However, Miami has planned a 7 number of changes in the athletic pro- gram to comply with Title IX, a regula- tion prohibiting sex discrimination in federally-assisted education programs. Affecting Virtually all public school systems and post-secondary education institutions, the regulation was for- malized July 21, 1975, and all schools must be in compliance by July 1, 1978. There will be sweeping effects in every college, said Michael Montgom- ery, Affirmative Action officer. No university is in compliance with Title IX. Regulations require that during the year, those in education begin a self- examination to identify any discrimi- natory policies or practices which may exist within their institution and to take whatever remedial action is needed. While Title IX does not state that an equal amount of money has to be spent on men's and women's athletics, it does state that funding and financial aid must be based on criteria other than a student's sex. In 1975, the wom- en's athletic: budget increased from $59,940. to $62,000. This is not a large budget compared to the men's athletic budget. Yet, gate receipts cover most of the athletic programs and women's participation is relatively small. Miami will begin offering sports scholarships to womrn, and equalizae tion of housing, equipment and privi- leges are still needed in order to come in compliance With the regulation, President Shriver said. Additionally, women's track will be made an inter- collegiate sport in the 1976-77 school year. In some respects, Miami perhaps will be a pioneer in its field, according to Elaine Heiber, coordinator of wom- en's intercollegiate athletics. What we are tending toward is the philsophy to completely intergrating non-contact sports on both men's and women's levels right down the line. We hope to make them co-educational with one coach and the same facilities. 33 According to Dr. B. Derrell Hart, associate dean of Stu- dent Life, Miami University's resident program is the best program in the nation. Hart accredits its success to the strength of the student staff. In addition to the 55 advi- sors, Miami employs 300 undergraduate residence advi- sors. The major emphasis of the residence hall program is on freshman dorms. The freshman program concentrates on establishing friendships quickly, in order to'ease the transi- tion from high school to college living. Furthermore it is believed that freshman year forms the basis of a student's social life. The relationships in freshman dorms are very intensive, more often than not meals, study time, and so- cial activities are done in a corridor group. Sophomore year due to increased interest in one's major plus invol- ment in campus activities students tend to be more indi- Vidualistic. The value of the residence hall experience is that it af- fords an opportunity to live in Close contact with people not selected by personal choice. Moreover, it provides stu- dents the opportunity to meet others who represent vari- ous cultural backgrounds and lifestyles. The past few years have seen an increase in the number 34 of upperclassmen who choose to live in dorms. This can be accredited to factors such as the rise in food costs, rent inflation, and the increase in crime. Many students who would like to live off-campus hesitate because of poor lighting conditions and the fear of being molested When walking home. For others the advantage of having your own place, outweigh the disadvantages of apartment life. Many stu- dents feel that when you live in an apartment you are better able to escape the feeling of being constantly in school. Co-ed dorms provide an opportunity to do your laundry With the opposite sex Without moving off campus. Accord- ing to Dr. Hart there have been no major problems With Miami's co-ed dorms. Although Logan, Flower, Hahne and Thompson Halls have alternate floors of male and females, they follow the same Visitation rules as the rest of the campus. The only exception is that they do have 24 hour lounges for residents. Regardless of whether one chooses to live on or off- campus the experience of living with others is an intregal part of one's college life.

The association involves 1100- 1200 students, most of whom choose to commute either for monetary reasons or because of attachments at home. They travel, each day, an average of 20 miles to attend classes in Oxford. For many years tucked away in the student wing of the University Center, the commuters are now very pleased to have found a new location on the first floor. There, they have found that more Miamians are aware of their pres- ence, and have interacted with them. Advised by Fanny Kisling, the commuters organize so- cial functions each year. In the past, they have planned canoe trips, dances, and beer blasts. A weekly event is Lunch and Lyrics , a noon mealtime program involving speakers and musicians as entertainment for the group. There are some disadvantages to commuting -- for example, locating parking places, and the necessity of studying at home, where conditions are often not advan- tagous to the college student. For these reasons, many commuters make the transition to resident life. e Brad McConnel ouooel amwlsqdelgoioqd ABOVE: Quarters for married students, the Manor is conviently located near campus.

It is called Miami Manor, a group of apts. for married students which has been operated by the Univer- sity since 1957. There are 108 furnished units, of which about two-thirds are efficiencies and the remaining third are one bedroom apartments. Facilities for tennants in- clude laundry rooms, a playground, a study room, and a basketballlvolleyball court. Rent at the Manor is probably the lowest in Oxford. The University takes responsibility for all maintenance, under the supervision of Jim Glachen, the Manor's amiable and efficient manager. Most of the students like living at Miami Manor because it enables them to meet other families with similiar inter- est and lifestyles. They appreciate the opportunity for their children to have playmates, and are especially pleased by the availability of babysitters. About one third of the couples in the Manor have children and 10-15 babies are born annually. Many married students, however, have voiced some complaints about living at Miami Manor. Some of these displeasures include: lack of space, lack of privacy, noise from neighbors, outdated furniture and appliances, plus plumbing and heating problems. The residents often feel that the University should listen more attentively to their needs and respond more quickly. Many of them feel that the married-student housing should be updated and ex- panded. -- Lyn Iacano :meU nomEmSwoaowE English Language for Foreign Students I am a foreign student from Saudi Arabia and I would like to express my experiences in how I learned English. I took English back home but it was simple English. Then I came to the United States and found out that I had to learn it. I asked myself such questions as: How am I going to make friends with American people? How am I going to understand them or know their way of life and their society? All these things depended on learning their language. I I would like to explain the difficulties which I encoun- tered.

I faced a lot of trouble. I couldn't understand what peo- ple asked me. I couldn't go any place without my husband. When people made jokes everyone laughed except me. I used to love to read a lot of magazines and newspapers, but when I came her it was difficult for me to read an American magazine or newspaper. When I came here, I turned on the TV; only I couldn't understand it. Then I decided to learn English. I had to learn it and to learn to depend on myself. I was fortunate to meet many sympathetic volunteers who liked to teach English to foreign wives. Every Tuesday afternoon I went to the Methodist Church, where Miss Helen Fuller was my teach- er. Also every Monday morning I would go to see Miss Fuller in the English department, she let me listen to tapes and gave me books to read and summarize. I thank the Methodist Church for letting us use the church. I ap- preciate the kindness of Miss Fuller and the other Ameri- can Volunteers. I am hoping one day to return their kind- ness by teaching Arabic language to Americans in Saudi Arabia. I decided to continue my education here, as I didn't finish high school back home. I went to Talawanda High School until I graduated last year. This year I decided to attend Miami. Now I am so glad to study here. I like Miami.

Western College is often referred to as The Miami Accross The Street. Formerly, a woman's college, Western is currently a residential college of interdisciplinary studies, within, and a part of Miami University. Although living at Western is a long walk home, for many Miami students it provides a unique opportunity to enact with students who are in a different type of educa- tional program. In many ways if offers a dual opportunity of attending one university and living at another universi- ty. Founded in 1853, the Western campus possesses a sci- enic beauty Which is often a refreshing change from the red bricks of Miami. Miami students have found that Western College tends to attract students who tend to be very individualistic and highly motivated. Although their education doesn't solely center around Classrooms and textbooks, Western students are very serious in their educational intentions. Miami students who live on the Western campus tend to be more concerned with their community and their rights as students. Perhaps, the smallness of their campus affords more opportunity for personal interaction and involve- ment. The Concerned Students Organization was founded at Western, and the fight against the new communications building being located at Western, began with a group of MiamiiWestern students. The difference between the student who lives on Miami's campus and the students on Western's campus is mainly personal concern. Western seems to attract a type of student who cares more about the quality of campus life. Or perhaps it is the environment which renders the student more aware of campus life and student rights - the realm of existence which doesn't solely include aca- demics, greek life, sports, and how to find a job. - Forrest Houlette ABOVE LEFT: Place des Martyrs, of Luxembourg city looks toward the Avenue de la Liberte. BELOW LEFT: Many of Luxembourg's older houses and buildings date back to the seventeenth century. LEFT: The main building of Miami's Luxembourg Center, provides a meeting place for students and faculty. BELOW: The View from the Bridge Ponte Adolf of- fers a scenic View of the city of Luxembourg. Did you say Luxemburg? How do you spell that? Is it located in Germany? These are a few of the many ques- tions people will ask if you say that you are going or have been to Luxembourg. Miami University, however, is well- acquainted with the Grand Duche and offers a fine oppor- tunity fOr its students to do the same. To clarify the point of Luxembourg's location, I will say here what I was told at the first Luxembourg meeting that I attended: Luxembourg is located in the center of every- thing! Looking at Luxembourg onra map, I saw that Lux. does in fact have a central location, but I didn't realize just how conveniend Luxembourg's centrality was until I began my travels in Europe. Luxembourg, surrounded by Belguim, France, and Ger- many, has a population of approximately 300,000 people. The country's main sources of income are the steel indus- try, banking, and agriculture. The people of Luxembourg city enjoy such forms of entertainment as discotheques, fine restaurants, the theatre, and of course, cafes. Miami University is situated in an accessible part of Lux. city, ten minutes from the train station and 30 sec- onds from two bus stops where transportation to all parts of the city can be obtained.- The four-floor building known as the center is the primary site of classes and social events. In the fall of 1974 a new library for Miami Univer- sity and. the Lux. community was built. The new library is also well-placed, two blocks away from the center. Be- cause of the small-number of students attending the center tbetween 50 and 80L the students enjoy the advantages of a small school atmosphers; that is, the students are able, to get to know one another and their professors in an inti- mate, informal manner. The students who attend Miami's branch campus in Lux. live with families who accomodate the students' de- sire to speak either French or German, or both. Many Luxembourgers are able to communicate effectively in four languages: Luxenbourgish, German, French, and English. This allows the families to meet the students' needs quite readily. The family with which the student resides feeds the student a continental breakfast and provides the stu- dent with a room. No two students experience the same kind of relationship with their family. In my particular case, the family with which I lived treated me as their third daughter ! I feel that the relationship which my family and I cultivated was the most beneficial aspect of my stay in Europe. . Since Lux. occupies such a central location in Europe, students have a great opportunity for travelling. Paris can be reached in a matter of four hours, Amsterdam in six. Even far away London can be reached in twelve hours. The. possibilities for travelling are Virtually endless. Ar- rangements for various excursions can easily be made in Lux. city with many student rates available. The center sponsors at least one trip per quarter, including a trip to the Soviet Union. It is obvious, then that the experience which students have in Luxembourg are plentiful and broadening. Flying home on the plane, I had six hours to sort out my thoughts about what had just passed and what was about to begin. I knew that I was glad to be returning home, yet I knew that I was sad to be leaving what had been my home for six months. It was at this time that I began to understand what was meant by the Lux. slogan, You'll never be the same again. a Marianne DiStefanp .. .e . .m+nEWJ1an saBan.olp .mpWJmh Id es 8 ku mammWMa W om$P ammumsbu mmioggw SGKSMHLm Mstwmm mmmwmkw 008mm W.

Miami University employs a significant number of stu- dents in many capacities ranging from office help, to resi- dent assistants, to maintance workers to library assistants. A11 campus employment is under the auspices of the Fi- nancial Aid Office. Located in Joyner House, the Financial Aid Office operates under the philosophy that no student should be denied a college education because of a lack of funds. First preferences for jobs are given to those students on the College Work Study program. In most instances the job is accompanied by a loan or a grant-in-aid. Whenever possible students are placed in a job which is related to their field of study. For instance a student interested in the medical profession might be placed at the hospital, or at a job in which he aided a professor doing scientific research. The average student work load is 12-15 hours a week, which would allow the student to earn between 200 and three dollars per quarter. The placement office of Laws Hall has found that part- time and summer employment is one of the five criteria that perspective employers consider to be of prime impor- tance. Regardless of whether a student to Chooses to work for the university or one of the many uptown merchants, the experiences of working while attending college is a valuable one. Not only does the student learn to budget his time, but he has the opportunity to interact with other members of the university community. Educators agree that the ability to relate to various types of people is a Vital skill. - Francine Sevel iamiLifestylest orking Students ABOVE: Coordination of the -R.A. program is one of the many duties of B.

Student Life Coordinators Implementing decisions and facilitat- ing the decision-making process is the role in which most student-affairs ad- ministrators see themselves. There is no notable decision making within the Student Life division, said Dean William Hollingsworth. Decisions can be made as long as they are within the guidelines of the Student Handbook and other publications, he added. Derrell Hart, Hollingsworth associate dean for residence learning, said his guideline for making decisions is which he feels comfortable making. I am not primarily a decision maker, Hart added, but someone who rec- ommends to bosses. I am not a policymaker, said Mary Evans, assistant dean for co-curricular programming. Still we operate most of the time without consulting Dean Hollinsworth or Dr. Etheridge. she said. On the other hand, Naomi Brown, dean for program development said she saw herself in the roles of decision maker and implementer, though not necessarily one more than the other. She said she was in no way a puppet on a string. The person closest to the situation should be the one to make the decision concerning it, Hollingsworth said. Staff meetings are held to discuss any major policy. Rarely are decisions made by indi- viduals in isolation, Brown said, citing the use of advisory boards and com- mittees. She estimated that 85 per cent of University decisions are made with consultation. Since he feels free to make recom- mendations on rules or to negotiate with another office, Hart said, that he therefore feels he has influence on certain decisions. As an implementer, Evans com- mented that she may see an reat that needs clarification or Change and thus recommends change to the approp- riate source. Going informally outside the Chan- nels can only be done, Brown said, when it is a question of policy. People have been extremely willing to be con- ciliatory, she has found. Brown went on to attribute some of her feeling of effectiveness to the way Robert Etheridge, Vice-President for Student Affairs, runs his division, with much judiscious delegation of responsibility. - 1.1.

The Infirmary has evolved from a one room office to a ninety bed facil- ity and finally to its present facilities which include only out- patient services. The Center was built during the Great Depression of the 30's and was named after its first president, Dr. Wade McMillan. The central wing of the building was built thirteen years ago, in 1963. Presently, the health center offers the services of a gynecologist, two psychiatrists, five part-tirne physicians, three orthopedics, two lab technicians, four radiologists, five phsyciotherapy student trainers, one pharmacist and a nursing staff. The facilities include a labratory, a whirlpool and a pharmacy. Last year's total prescrip- tion sales amounted to well over $31,000. The philosophy of the health center is not to make a profit a but to break even. Dr. Rardin, director commented on the importance of the health center, It is not only an asset, but it's essential. Not only does McCullough-Hyde Hosptial provide a facility for the Health Service's overnight patients, it is also the place where patients are sent after the Health Center's closing hours. The $33 dollar student health insurance fee covers medical expenses at both the Health Center and the Hospital. The seventeen year-old hospital recently completed a two million dollar facility expansion which included new operating suites, labratory, x-ray, out-patient facilities, and a shelled-in area for future bedspace.

Prof. Robert Brown, head of Miami's Student Counseling ser- vice, spent Thursday afternoon talking with students, just as he has done for the past 14 years. Yet he described the afternoon as scintillating. Because student's statements to counselors are kept confidential, Brown cannot expound on the details of his afternoon, except to say that he had met some great people. But Brown says that he and the other six counselors on War- field's basement floor, might have spent the afternoon counseling, a homesick freshman, a transfer student, a baseball player who cannot get along with his coach, a history major wondering what graduate schools to apply for. In addition to offering individual counseling on educational, vo- cational, and personal problems, the counseling service also offers h group counseling, individual testing, an educational-career li- brary, drug information, referrals to other agencies and limited psychotherapy. Until recently, counselors encountered about an equal number of problems in each area of educational, vocational and personal problems. Now personal problems seem to be on the rise, Brown said. Loneliness is the No. 1 problem at Miami, Brown added, and includes not a small number of Miami students. A continuing problem for many students, according to Brown, is simply time management. Brown helps these students by suggest- ing they keep a log of their their time. He summed-up the philos- ophy of the counseling service by saying, Our goal is to put the student back in the driver's seat. Despite the tightness of the economy the year 1975- 76 saw an increase in student attendance at the various campus functions. N ot only were the traditional large concerts, plays, and special weekend events popular, there was also a significant increase in attendance at campus lecturers and symposiums. Morever, events which are traditionally labeled Cultural brought in diverse types of audiences. A major factor in the success of this year's events is the bicentennial. Many programming bodies encorpo- rated the bicentennial theme into their programs, and thus many quality events were brought to campus which otherwise might not have been possible.

Other events of the weekend included a Sib's Nature Hike in Peiffer Park, the M.U.S.F. 20l20 Bike Race and picnic, a Lab Jazz Band Concert, plus a variety of filmshowings both Creature Features and Laurel and Hardy. In all likelihood Li'l Sib's Weekend will continue on a combined ac- tivities basis, as opposed to the ear- lier procedure when Li'l Sibs and Li'l Brother weekends were conducted seperately.

Honored at the game's half-time festivities were Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Goggin, chosen as Parents of the Year . The Special Parent's Week- end Committee of C.A.C., working in conjunction with Associated Stu- dent Government, selected the Gog- gins from suggestions submitted by the Office Of Public Information. Mrs. Strom said the entire weekend success can be in part attrib- uted to the publicity efforts of the Alumni Association. Mrs. Strom sees great potential in the future for big- ger and better Parents Weekends as campus-wide organizations maintain their drive toward more coordinated activities for all of 'the university's special weekends. e Lyn Condron 55 56 0 The sixth annual Spring Carnival was once again a successful event, despite adverse weather condi- tions. Beginning on Friday, May 14, and continuing through Sun- day, rain drizzled through most of the operating hours. Nevertheless, students and townspeople turned out in large numbers to take ad- vantage of the' many treats avail- able at the Cook Field site. Pro fessional amusements were pro- vided by Kissel Brothers, while student organizations added to the offerings by their sponsorship of games booths and concessions. One complicating factor of this year's carnival involved the possi- bility of illegal intervention by Bu- tler County officials. Because of the confiscation of pinball machines due to their supposed gambling as- pect, several university administra- tors felt that there was a possibility for a similar ruling in terms of carnival games. For this reason, Program Board, the sponsors of the carnival, was advised to seek ver- ification by the state Attorney gen- eral's office. Due to the element of skill involved in most games under consideration by the student groups, nearly all were able to be offered at the carnival. Spirits were high, as those who attended the carnival amused themselves with rides and games. Many delectable foods were offered by the groups, including hot dogs, ice cream sandwiches, bagels, and frozen bananas. In addition, games of skill involved basketball and a sponge-toss. WMUB's radio station provided a jazz background, and offered album give-aways. For those that were able to neg- lect the effects of weather, the Spring Carnival offered an alterna- tive to weekend uptown activity. e Brad McConnell Y PhOtogl'rfaphXILiIiri-jjlpwelrl Photograpthike Iacono namoH uunMd21801oqd FAR LEFT: An encouraging hug always helps to prepare a prospective winner.

A toasted roll, please echoes in the Redskin Reservation at least 300 times a day according to Mr. Richard Bystrom, director of the University Center. A nominal sum of $3,000 keeps the multi- purpose complex daily as a matching average of 3,000 students and faculty members pass through the Center's doors. Since its opening in 1957, the Res had doubled the size of its food service. Presently, the Center's four public dinning rooms, six pri- vate dinning rooms and four administrative offices employ 65 full-time and 135 part-time employees. Mr. Bystrom Cites the new 24-hr-a-day service as the biggest and most beneficial improve- ment that the Res has undergone. Forthcoming changes in the University Center include the con- troversial expansion of the bookstore t0 the third floor of the building. The expansion is scheduled to be completed prior to the 1976-77 academic term. Mr. Bystrom sees the reasonable expan- sion as being necessary to make the center a more I'complete ser- vice t0 the students. This decision to expand the bookstore into the student office wing was not favorably supported by a large segment of the student population. Though it is generally agreed that more space was required for the bookstore, the loss of student offices in the facility is felt to be an example of the fact that the building is a g'jUniversity Center not a Student Union. Other features of the center include the Heritage and Towers R00nis,rten student offices, and the games room. The games room encompasses both the pool and bowling areas, which accomodate approximately 250 phys. ed. students weekly. In View of these many features, Mr. Bystrom feels that the facility is indeed a uni- versity center as opposed to a student center, since the complex represents service and entertainment to both the students and the entire college community. e Lynn Condron ouoael axwwqdelgoioqd A Student Union Or A University Center?

Performing on October 31, Berger kept the audience spellbound and silent for two hours. When asked why mime? He replied, I watch people and learned about the silence behind what people say. Berger's feelings for mime are so intense that he feels he can only explain his desire to perform by comparing it to physical emotion. I wanted to capture that special electricity that passes between the eyes of lovers and put it into all actions. A Broad Spectrum Of Entertainment It is not uncommon for the office in 247 of the University Center to get calls to order Joni Mitchell tickets or to take the blame for late concerts. However, the answer is always the same e Wrong Number. l Not wrong game, just the wrong number. Program Board, in 247 of the Res, programs for the campus - With the unique distinc- tion of only programming in the Res. In addition to bringing pro- fessional entertainment to campus, Program Board provides an opportunity for area talent to gain experience and exposure. The student board is comprised of five standing committees - dance and concert, films, fine arts, publicity and special events. Each committee is headed by 2 co-chairmen selected in the spring to coordinate programming. The dance and concert committee attempts to schedule local stu- dent talent, While concentrating on the procurement of small-hall concert artists, as exemplified by Kenny Rankin and Jaime Broc- kett. A large scale popular film series and an International film series highlight the film program. The board seeks to present cinematic features that may be enjoyed by the greatest number of students, and to screen some films that the student might not otherwise have a chance to see. Fine arts committee presents an annual Human Liberation week, and schedules a dinner theatre plus small scale lecturers and craft demonstrations.

Competing with 20 other contestants Perkins was judged on the basis of talent, interview, swim suit, and on-stage personality. Contestants 0f the Miss Miami contest must be 18-28 years of age, must be female, single, and never have been married, divorced, or had a marriage annulled. In addition, the contestant must be a high school graduate. The winner of the pageant represents Miami at the Miss Ohio pageant. In 1971, Judy Jones, Miami's entry in the pageant, was Chosen Miss Ohio and received a $200. scholarship. Judging the preliminaries are local residents having a background in dance, music, voice, drama, or phys- ical education. Later in the week, the final pageant contestants are judged by a panel of five members - three of which must be approved by the Miss Ohio Scholarship Pageant. At Miami, the contest began in the 1964-65 school year. The pageant has had varied campus response.

A new addition to the pageant was the on-stage personality category. In this area, each girl was given 20 sec- onds to summarize their age, school, and future ambitions. -- 1.1. Ulsh Richard Gowdy, a senior from Dayton, Ohio, majoring in personal management, hypnotized the audi- ence with his magic-comedy routine and won the title of Mr. Miami 1975-76, during the first annual pageant fall quarter. The pageant was sponsored by Program Board, and boasted as its mistress of ceremonies Sharon P. Blocker a former runner-up to Miss America, and a member of the execu- tive board of the Miss America pageant. Miss Blocker now travels regularly through the country to support the Miss America pageant. The poise and smiling confidence exhibited by Gowdy during the for- mal wear and talent competition was multiplied during the swim trunk judging, when he flexed his Chest muscles during the walk down the runway.

Oxford, as a Bicentennial commu- nity, must demonstrate its involve- ment in three areas emphasized by the national coordinating institution: heritage, justice, festival, and hori- zons. Thus, the Bicentennial can be seen as an opportunity for the recog- nition of the past, the celebration of the present, and the contribution to the future. To this end, both the University and the city have planned events which will follow these criteria, and provide educational and entertainment benefits to the resi- dents. Sue Frazier, executive assistant to the Vice President for Student Af- fairs, is the chairman of Miami's Bicentennial committee, and a member of the Oxford community Bicentennial group. As such, she is quite knowledgeable of the plans of both groups for this festive year. Her assessment is that Miami and Oxford will work together to make the area celebration one that adhers to the three important aspects. According to Ms. Frazier, .Oxford has several projects already under- way. A special reprint of Smith's book OLD MIAMI HOUSES AND- THE PEOPLE WHO LIVED IN THEM has been initated by the local committee. As the title suggests, the book deals with historical homes in the Oxford area, and offers short his- tories of their original inhabitants. Another publication made avail- able for the celebration is a unique Bicentennial calendar. This special print records the events of the com- munity as they pertain to this histor- ical period. Retail merchants are doing their share to further the goals of the 64 STAR SPANGLED CELEBRATION Bicentennial, says Frazier. Already in production are a limited number of unique park-style benches that will be presented to the community. The benches incorporate the theme of the festival, and will serve as long- standing reminders of this special year. Other interest groups, such as the garden club, advocate small scale patriotic demonstrations by the community residents. In addition, the city plans to bury a time capsule containing memoribilia, to com- memorate the event on behalf of its citizens. The university is involved in Bicentennial planning, also, stated Ms. Frazierx The McLellan lecture series, for example, deals with as- pects of colonial life; the text of these lectures is to be published in book form, Other conferences deal with diverse aspects of university study, and incorporate a Bicentennial theme. They are sponsored by the respective departments, and show great originality. TWO HUNDRED YEARS OF MATHEMATICS IN AMERICA and GERMAN HERIT- AGE AND THE OPENING OF THE WEST are examples of such pro- grams. Entertainment events for students, faculty, and the community are also offered by Miami. The Artist Series, a yearly collection of great cultural performances has incorporated'a number of special programs for the Bicentennial. The music of Charles Ives is one such unique event, as is the jazz concert by Cleo Laine and the dance performance of the Dayton Ballet company. Certainly one of the most promi- nent Bicentennial events planned by the university for both the school and the community has been the Bicentennial Ball. The dance was planned for February, at the Millet assembly hall. There, a great festival for the purpose of juxtaposing stu- dents, faculty, and Oxford residents, so that a greater bond might grow among them. l'For Miami Bicentennial events, members vary considerably, but at- tendance has been impressive, noted Ms. Frazier. She feels that this fact demonstrates the community in- terest in the bicentennial programs. In particular, the Bicentennial ball drew a large number of people, with estimates of attendance as high as 7500. Another aspect to the Bicentennial celebration includes the flying of his- toric flags at the flagpole of Roudebush. In addition to this, Miami has initiated a collection of papers toriginal and on microfilmi connected with the life of Benjamin Harrison, in the hopes that the uni- versity may someday become re- nowned as a seat of this information. Ms. Frazier sees this as the good beginning of one long range effect of the Bicentennial planning. Funds for the special events are derived from several sources. Com- munity activities are largely financed by donations from Citizens and from merchants. The sale of the Bicenten- nial calendars has proved to be un- successful as a profit rendering activ- ity, and instead has not been suffi- cient to cover the cost of their print- ing. Miami's sources for its Bicenten- nial activities include the President's office, which absorbed the cost of the Bicentennial Ball. Most other ac- tivities are covered by funds derived from the Office of Student Affairs. In some cases, individual schools and departments contribute to the same cause by incorporating this theme into their functions. An example is Program Board, which published a special Bicentennial issue of their yearly datebook, MIAMI MEMOES. Top: At the Bicentennial Ball: the Howard A. Miller Hag collection was displayed.

Bottom: This seal is the symbol of the Miami Bicentennial celebration. 65 In a long range perspective, Frazier feels that much will be ac- complished by the Bicentennial. All activities are open -- the uni- versity and town are both wel- come, she noted. Because of this, an increased sense of community is one hopeful outcome; and intensifi- cation of the cooperation between town and gown may be expected. 66 In later years, as 1976 is looked at in retrospect, it will be possible to see the manner in which the Bicen- tennial has exerted its influence. At the very least, Frazier concludes, the Bicentennial will make this year memorable. It has been a good time for us. In commemoration of the Bicen- tennial, the theme of Homecoming weekend was America On Parade. Although the parade was rained out; it can be said that homecoming weekend saw Miami on parade. By nature, homecoming is a time which brings together the combined efforts of various programming bodies, greek organizations, residence halls, and other campus organizations.

A YEAR OF THEATRE 72 Located in the Center for the Performing Arts, M.U. Theatre celebrates its sixty-sixth season. The prime objectives of the thea- ter department are to provide its students with an educational training lab, while at the same time providing the audience with quality entertainment; en- compassing various genres of live theatre. Plays are not selected on the basis of expected revenues nor are box office revenues the mea- surement of a play's success. The learning experiences of the cast and crew are variables which cannot be measured by monetary gain. Similar, to litera- ture or film, theater attempts to reflect on human existence and to heighten awareness. When a play does this the theatre de- partment has reached a goal. For their sixty-sixth season, M.U. theater staged six produc- tions, covering a wide-range of theatrical tastes. The first of the series was Thornton Wilder's THE SKIN OF OUR TEETH, a Pulitzer Prize Winning comedy about the survival of the human race. This production served as Miami's entry in the American College Theater Festival. The following play was A VIEW FROM THE BRIDGE, Ar- thur Miller's examination of be- wildered passion and the de- struction of causes. GODSPELL was the third production of the season. This lighthearted musical based on the Gospel according to St. Matthew, was a sell-out for every performance, and highly received by the audiences. Strindberg's masterpiece, THE FATHER, was the next theatrical work. Although the play was written in 1887, its portrayal of the battle of the sexes is still considered relevant to our mod- ern times. The Miami University Dance Theatre and special guest choreographers collaborated on the direction and production of Dance Theater, the following production. Utilizing the theme of New Dimensions in Modern Dance , Dance Theater strives to combine Choreography and de- sign in one inovative program. The final production of the season was William Wycherley's THE COUNTRY WIFE, a bawdy restoration comedy written 300 years ago. The play deals with the romantic shenanigans of a deceiving husband. h m H o 5 H :r n W 2 a. In P G o n.

Bottom: Tracy Wodrill applies her make-up prior to the GODSPELL performance. For every performer on stage there are five to eight backstage workers. This in- cludes the scenery crew, lighting and sound techni- cians, wardrobe, and the staff of house management. The house management staff is composed of box office personnel, ushers, ticket takers, and the publicity staff. The theater depart- ment designs all of its own programs, posters, and other promotional materials. Performers are chosen on the basis of an audition, which always consists of a reading and often encom- passes singing, dancing, improvisations and move- ment. Students are encour- aged to tryout for a produc- tion as opposed to a specific part. Whenever possible ac- tors preferences are consid- ered, when casting roles. Tryouts are open to all stu- dents enrolled in the univer- sity. Aside from the monetary aid received from the Uni- versity the theatre depart- ment is entirely self- sufficient. The entire set -- everything from furniture to costumes is self-generated. After the show the costumes are stored and the sets are either stored or rebuilt. In terms of staging, Godspell was a very elabo- rate and complex produc- tion. It demanded the co- ordination of lights, sound, voice, body movement and improvisations. Godspell was a cast of ten working as one 5 throughout the entire performance the cast re- mained on stage. Approximately 3,400 people Viewed the nine per- formances.

Every winter, Concert Board does random surveys to see what types of artists the students are interested in seeing. The actual selection of the artists depends on the artists availability and the availability of Millett Hall. If an artist crest, and 030 has other bookings in the region not only do we save on transportation costs but the cost of the concert is usually less expensive. Because of the high demand for Millett Hall during winter quarter Concert Board reserves their dates for the next academic year. The basic concept of Concert Board is not to make a profit but to bring quality entertainment to Miami's campus. All Concert Board funds are self-generated. The cost paid the performer is what varies the cost of the ticket. Aside from the fee paid to the performer the expenses of an aver- age concert run between nine and twelve thousand dollars. . This includes Millett Hall maintance, security, ushers, ticket takers, chair set-up, supervision of the box office, equipment rental, publicity costs and fringe benefits to the performers. Fringe benefits include hospitality, lodging, transportation, and any other comforts requested by the performer. Liquid beverages are pretty much a standard comfort . Occasionally a performer will request flowers. Per- formers always travel in style; limosines are rented to transport them to and from the airport. The majority of this year's popular concerts were solo artists. This lack of diversity caused some student disap- pointment. October 18, 1975 e Homecoming weekend David Crosby and Graham Nash surprised many by their fine duo performance.

Bob Hope was the largest concert of this year and Millett Hall's third largest con- cert. When one speaks of humor in America one does not describe Bob Hope as a per- former, but as a genre of humor in which both ourselves and our parents were raised. Those who attended the concert were im- pressed not only with the performer's humor but with his warmth and genuine- ness. February 2, 1976 - Joni Mitchell and the LA. Express. Traditionally a folk singer, Joni Mitchell's style has Changed to folk-rock in the John Denver style. Those who came to hear the Joni Mitchell of the 70's were favor- ably impressed with the quality of her per- formance. However, those who came to hear the Joni Mitchell of her folk-singing days were sadly disappointed. Unlike Bob Hope, who related well to both the audience and those helping backstage, the attitude of Joni Mitchell left much to be desired. 806 Hope and Joni Mitchell. . . in terrain : of distinction PhotographstRiCk LuBuono 80 In commemoration of the anniversary of the birth of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Ralph Abernathy and Fred Shuttles- tional president of the South- ern Leadership Conference.

According to the Miami catalogue, the College of Arts and Science has as its primary purpose provision for a well-balanced liberal education. It seeks through a flexible program, with reasonable opportunities for election of courses, to develop a broad cultural background as a foundation for later professional study and work in a changing world. On graduation, the student should be qualified to pursue his special interest effectively, to ap- preciate the intellectual, aesthetic, and ethical values of life, and to act credit- ably in the society of which he be- comes a part. In its 167 years, the Col- lege has witnessed the expansion of Miami to include the schools of Busi- ness, Education, Fine Arts, and Applied Science, and the addition of the liberal arts Western College. The College has also withstood changing student attitudes toward the liberal arts. One often comes to wonder what has happened to the love of learning for its own sake, said Botany Chair- HHTSESCIEMES man Charles Heimsch in a 1973 ad- dress to the Botanical Society of America. He stated that pragmatic benefits and relevence are frequently applied in weighing the value of a course. While Heimsch cities in his address the presence of a humanistic backlash the College has maintained a two per cent growth rate with current enrollment Of 6000 students. The School's 375 faculty teach Close to 60070 of the credit hours of the university. Career oriented education doesn't bother me said Communication and Theatre chairman Jimmie Trent. It's a great asset that people are trained to 010 technical things in a number of fields with a good Humanities background. Other department heads concur that the key for a liberal arts major is a specific career goal. English department Chairman Robert Johnson added that the types of jobs available don't specify a specific major. The study of humanities prepares a person to deal with life rather than to make a living, said Spanish and For- tuguese Chairman R.L. Moloney. In long term evaluations, making a liv- ing is easier to do than making a good life. To judge the merit of an aca- demic program solely by the way it prepares the student for a job is to judge in terms of quantity, not quality. Dean Williamson said that the Col- lege of Arts and Science teaches stu- dents to adapt to a host of job oppor- tunities. He maintained that with Miami's stabilized student population, and with the constraints of budget, quality must be retained with smaller fiscal support. The singular challenge is to uphold Miami's reputation as the best academic school in the state sys- tem. 87 Fixing broken equipment is one aspect of glass- blowing.

The sciences are a necessary part of the liberal arts educa- tion, said Geology Chairman David Scotford . In a Chemistry department that is presently fourteenth in the nation, Chemistry graduates and undergradu- ates are encouraged to become in- volved in research. We try to get stu- dents involved with it, said Asst. Prof. Jan Jaworski, students should get exposed to research methods, espe- Cially if one is looking forward to grad- uate school. The natural scientist also finds op- portunity for research and career orien- tation at the Bachelor Wildlife Estate, the Institute of Environmental Science, Aton Lake and the joint field station with Earlam College at Whitewater Re- sevoir. Many have gone into the re- lated areas of ecology and the enVi- ronment, said Zoology Chairman Charles Vaughn. In terms of its un- dergraduate enrollment the Zoology department is the largest department in the College of Arts and Science. It prepares graduates for the professional schools of medicine, dentistry, veteri- nary medicine, and fields of Medical Technology and Physical Therapy. Prof. Robert Hayes said that students interested in medical school usually distribute themselves between the Chemistry and Zoology departments, but there is no such thing as a pre- med major. He added that the 115 Medical schools in the nation require only five courses: Freshman English, General Chemistry, Organic Chemis- try, Organic Chemistry, General Zool- ogy and General Physics. With an in- flection of pride in his voice Hayes said Medical school candidates from Miami have an acceptance rate of 5570 which compares with the national rate of 3370. Current research projects include the search for an economical and powerful solar cell a I started in the Spring of 1975, said senior Pat Slomeckel about his project with Professor Joseph Can- trell. Each professor has their speciality on a variety of interests, and if a Chem- istry maj or wants to do research within that range he may do so. He added that the students are as serious about the research as the faculty member that as- sists. Other research projects include the tracing of lead in the environment. William Hoyle and undergraduate as- sistants examine tree rings made annu- ally, to determine the amount of lead in the environment. The faculty will act as advisors on interested proposals by students, Hoyle said. Prof. James Pyle of the Chemistry department concludes that there are a lot of good programs and good people working on them in a number of de- partments. The humanities division of the uni- versity explores the aspects of man and his achievements in order to under- stand those human characteristics which differentiate him from other liv- ing beings. The role of the humanities division is to be persuasive in demonstrating the fact that these are essential values; understanding history and literature is a Vital part of an individual culture, said French and Italian chairman Nathaniel Wing. The number of humanities majors has steadily declined due to the lack of 89 agere'cwl; , - enrollmeht inlanguage c1 9O security in finding employment. The Humanities major has the advantage of job adaptability when one gets that first job, said Prof. Johnson chairman of the English department. In the humanities the most infamous course for the undergraduate is English Composition and Literature, better known as Freshman English. In 1976 national controversy arose over the reading and writing deficiencies of students graduating from secondary schools. Johnson says that the writing problem on the national level is severe but not new. There is needed more specific understanding of what hap- pens in the whole composition pro- cess. Many students have abandoned the traditional areas of literature. Con- sequently, the faculty are teaching more basic courses. Johnson added that English majors are shifting to the realm of journalism, a more career- oriented major, as opposed to a major in literature. Languages are another area of the humanities which have suffered from lack of interest on the part of most stu- dents. Wing said there should be more stress in this realm. In a world that is becoming increasingly international, Americans are sadly deficient in their linguistic competence. America de- pends on small countries for Vital re- sources, he said, and not knowing their language means a great disadvan- tage. In the remodeled Irvin Hall, Spanish . majors and faculty mingle in the Newman lounge, and in Hall Audito- rium classics majorsutilize the Clark lounge, which contains a collection of non-circulating Greek and Latin texts. In the Umanities casual conversation over coffee and tea is a reflection of the intimacy between faculty members and students. Prof. Stanley Kane of the Phi- losophy Dept. feels that the strength of his department is the faculty interest in students, and in their concern to main- tain relations both in class and out of Class. The faculty is very active in ad- vising student groups in political and community issues, stated Kane. In the Seventies the humanistic studies have undergone other subtle changes besides student enrollments. Twenty years ago the field of speech was consisdered to be basic public speaking, said Jimmie Trent of Com- munication and Theatre. Presently most CAT courses are social courses, and many faculty in the department consider themselves social scientists. Trent added that the number of CAT majors has increased by approximately 5070 over the last five years. People recognize the importance of communi- cations. Although communications studies may be classiffied as a fad,their merit is demonstrated by the fact that many academic departments require students to take communications courses. Other areas of the humanities reflect this same trend to interject courses into the general curriculum. In the French and Italian department there is an at- tempt to address a diversified group of students not only directly in the lan- guage, but in French Studies, Cinema and Modern French Thought. Prof. Michael Goldman of Philoso- phy says that the lower level philoso- phy course are now filled to capacity mainly because of the need to fullfill the University Requirment. This dif- fers from the stand of 1970 when stu- dents were anxious to take philosophy because of an attempt to come in con- tact with politically active professors. Due to the University Requirement many humanities courses at the lower levels are still filled to capacity, but be- cause of an unstable economy which doesn't recognize aesthetic values, the future of humanities is not in the humanities division, but in the way these subjects can be intergrated into other aspects of the University. Uohnsoni e Amellia Washington 91 The social sciences involve those fields of study that explore the be- havior of societal man. This division of the University has undergone subtle but drastic change in its outlook on ac- ademics and its impact as a force in the intellectual milieu of the nation. So- Cial scientists don't have the confi- dence they had fifteen years ago, said Carl Jantzen, chairman of the Sociology and Antropology department. The thing of the future is to focus on a grea- ter need to the application aspects of our theories. Jantzen added that among the social scientists there is a tendency to put emphasis on methodology Without concern for its application. The social science fields picked up enrollment in the sixties, due to the greater interest Which was caused by expectations that within social knowl- edge lies the answer to injustice. Stu- dents in the seventies, however, have to a greater extent replaced the ideals of the sixties With what Prof. Alan S. Engel of Political Science calls Employment Consciousness . The Po- litical Science brochure sums up the situation in a tongue in cheek manner by stating that, if worst comes to worst, one's political science background can always help one lobby more effectively for higher welfare benefits! Jantzen said that because majors of Public Administration and Social Work relate to job futures, their enrollment has increased. Because of the recognition that one's education extends outside the Clas- sroom, internship programs have be- come available for political science majors. The internship program offers majors an opportunity to pick up credit hours for carefully supervised and aca- demic related experiences. The student arranges the internship Within his par- ticular interest: the courts, police, City Manager's office, or elections and cam- paigns. In order to receive academic credit the student negotiates with the department on readings and papers. Another opportunity for independent study is the summer Archaelogical Fieldwork program. The program Which is in its sixth year, is under the supervision of Anthropology instruc- tor, Robert H.

Goggin addressed the 1975 summer commence- ment. Roudebush to a Miami student means long lines, paperwork, change- of-schedules, and payment of fees. In short, Roudebush Hall has become synonymous with Miami administra- tion. The administration building was in use for 9 years before being named in honor of Wallace Roudebush, class of 1911, a former secretary to the Presi- dent, Vice President, and Treasurer. Roudebush Hall contains the offices of the President, and the offices of business, academic, and student af- fairs. This area of the building is not perhaps as well known as the first-floor windows of the Registrar and the Bur- sar. Nevertheless, all areas of administra- tion are intregral t0 the life of the stu- dent. President Phillip R. Shriver, Miami's seventeenth president said the philos- ophy of the administration is based on a liberal arts tradition. It is acceptable that the university be accused of being an ivory tower, he said, It is a place To a Miami student the first floor of Roudebush Hall means long lines and paperwork. Photo raph 1 John Lindsey where ideas abound, where creative activity should be encouraged, that one can be prepared to adapt to whatever change occurs. Vice President and Provost David G. Brown said the administration's pur- pose was the continuation of liberal education as a background for all stu- dents, including those in special areas. The university is bringing potential employees to campus, providing in- ternships for students and assigning materials that relate to the real world as well as the ivory tower. Miami has a reputation for uphold- ing traditional administrative policies. The Insider's Guide to the Colleges, fourth edition said of the university, The administration is very conserva- tive and more responsive to alumni than students, with the result that Miami has more alumni support than any other Ohio school. In December, Miami held its first Board of Trustees meeting under the Ohio Sunshine law. The law stated that all meetings deal- ing with regulated individuals must be open to the public. Dean Myron Lunine of Western Col- Photograph lIohn Lindsey Robert Etheridge, Vice-President for Student Af- fairs, found his role to be controversial due to his involvement in administrative actions against student proposals. Vice-President for Finance and Business Affairs is Lloyd Goggin. .95 In 1976 Doanld C. Fanta became the ninth trustee member. When the term of William Beckett expired, Scott Knisley became chairman of the Board of Trus- tees. FIRST ROW: Scott M. Knisley, Lucille Crowell Cooks, Carl Morgenstern, Mary C.

Former Chairman William Beckett, whose term expired in March told the STUDENT the audience of the first meeting was like a cheering section. Scott Knisley, Board Chairman since March reported that the audience re- sponse was definitely helpful in decision-making. At the first meeting the Board turned down a bid for a student sub- committee of the Board, but directed Student and Academic Affairs to work out a procedure for student and faculty response. The fact is that no student any- where on this campus has a real or meaningful voice in what goes on at this school, stated Geoffrey Baer to a student rally held in South Quad April 15. The non-Violent rally was in protest of the administration Changing from proposals to reports student-based suggestions for a coed dorm on West- ern Campus and the equalization of Visitation Violation policies. As a re- sult, the Board could not vote on the issues. Our administration runs this aca- demic factory as if it were a Mac- Donald's Hamburger Stand, clean and efficient with a rapid turnover, and special orders not accepted, said stu- dent John Coble at the April rally. The administration's reply to the protest was that it was a legal action as detailed in the University handbook President Shriver said he would not be a rubber stamp president or a clerk. But the realization of little student voice in the decision-making process lead to student dissatisfaction. - Amelia Washington Photograph i John Lindsey In the Affirmative Action office of Roudebush Hall, Michael Montogomery and Kathy Graff re- view paperwork.

These inter-departmental courses re- flect the faculty and student awareness that the complex problems of the 20th century cannot be defined or solved through one discipline. In the Journal of Environmental Education Miami faculty members concurred that When one carefully scrutinizes problem areas such as pollution, and resource man- agement, one recognizes that they are inter-disciplinary in nature. No one discipline is able to effectively deal with such problems. Judith Fryer, director of the Ameri- can Studies program also values the advantage of an interdisciplinary ap- proach. For instance, in terms of the novel, one does not look at it through a narrow discipline - one looks at the politics, the history and the culture which produced it. Moreover, the arts ,cannot be judged solely by the realm of creativity, they must also be judged within the context of the times. Similarily, Marian Musgrave, direc- tor of Black World Studies, feels that it is more beneficial to take inter- departmental courses dealing with the Black World, rather than major in Black World Studies. She feels that these courses give students a perspective on the black, in relationship to the world in which they move. Morover, Black Studies programs have gone beyond faddism and have become well con- structed and well though of academic programs. The Institute of Environmental Sci- ence is Miami's most successful inter- disciplinary program. Gary Barrett, di- rector of the IES said that their gradu- Dr. Mildred M.

This award was received for contributions in the field of environ- mental education. In February the IES was chosen as an information resource center for the International Referral systems of the United Nations Envi- ronment program. e- Amellia Washington 99 Many graduate students also teach in- troductory courses, such as the one being taught by this economics assis- tant. 100 Comprised of ten doctoral programs and thirty masters degree programs, Miami's Graduate School awarded its first degree in 1830. However the school's real beginning is considered to have been in 1949 when the graduate school council was formalized. Ten years later, in 1959 the school named its first dean. Since the late fifties when technology began to put a greater emphasis on math, science, and engineering, there has been a steady increase in graduate school enrollment. .The years 1959-1970 witnessed an annual 1-270 increase in enrollment. Due to economic factors the growth in the seventies is only moderate, as opposed to the precced- ing period of high growth. Still educators ponder as to whether we are preparing to many doctoral candidates for too few college teaching positions. The seventies have also witnessed a shift away from the liberal arts to courses of study which are more prac- tical in nature - i.e. fields of study in which more jobs are available. For in- stance students who might have taken masters degrees in English literature are now seeking degrees in journalism, or even M.B.A. degrees. This trend raises the fundamental question re- garding the purpose of graduate study. In the past students chose further edu- cation for the primary purpose of studying an area in greater depth. However, the seventies have witness- es more and more students enrolled in graduate study because they cannot find a good job with just a B.A. So- ciology majors admit that a B.A. is meaningless - you need a masters de- gree to get anywhere in sociology. In many ways a university is a mirror which reflects the changing values of society. Through the university we see exactly what the society values and re- wards. ' Admission to Miami's graduate school is based on a minimum 2.5 ac- cum. However many departments have admission standards which are much more stringent.The G.R.E.'s,the Miller Analogy Exam, and letters of recom- mendation are required by many de- partments. The Pyschology department requires a 3.0 average as a prerequisite e to admission. Although Miami's Graduate School is not as well known as some of the older institutions, its reputation is solvent. Last year the North Central Accrediting Association gave Miami its highest academic rating. This means that Miami can introduce new doctoral 3.: ides study carrolles .graciua'te ' students King Library pro1 where faculty an v can find solitude.

Unfortunately, Miami is not in a metropolitan area and will not benefit as greatly as will universitys such as the University of Cincinnati, or Cleveland State. e Francine Sevel Peabody Hall is one of the largest buildings on Western's campus. It accomodates a diverse range of facilities, including faculty, and staff of- fices, academic classrooms, and student living quarters. Dean Mike Lunine, a familiar person on campus talks with students about the new curriculum and how to utilize it most effectively. 104 One of the Western discussion groups gets underway, as Leslie Wessel debates a point. These discussion groups provide an important medium for exchanging ideas. Basking in the winter sun is Beth Jackson. Her second story window provides a unique place to ponder an English theme. This is Miami's sixth and newest ac- ademic division. The College was con- ceived in 1973, and by the spring of 1974 had a general structure and guidelines for the shape, nature, and purpose of the College. This was done by a Miami University Planning Com- mittee and a Miami University Interim Committee. Further development was, and is, continued by Western College itself. The aim of these efforts is to es- tablish a residential college of interdis- ciplinary studies within, and as part of, Miami University. From the outset, deep values, high goals, and long-range purposes have influenced the development of West- ern's program. Mike Lunine, Dean of Western, articulated these values, goals, and purposes; We would be, within Miami Uni- versity, a residential college of inter- disciplinary studies. We would be a small, personal, human-scale learning community, in- tegrally a part of Miami, with equal ac- cess to all of Miami's resources, facilities, activities, programs, and people. We would be a division of Miami University, offering a combination of interdisciplinary liberal arts. courses and programs and the opportunity for each Western division student to con- centrate, according to his or her tal- ents, tastes, and needs, in Virtually any of the scholarly disciplines, scientific and technical fields, and pre- professional programs of the other di- visions of Miami University. Western's philosophy is converted from the ideal to the real through its unique program of Interdisciplinary Studies. During the first two years at most universities one takes courses in the natural sciences, the social sci- ences, and the humanities. One is ex- pected to inter-relate them individu- ally. In contrast, at Western, faculty and students engage in a continuous and intentional effort to make connec- tions between the courses and tie the various subject areas together. Within Western there are two divi- sions: the Lower, which includes freshmen, freshwomen, and sopho- mores, and the Upper, which includes juniors and seniors. The Lower Divi- sion curriculum is based in the general studies of the liberal arts tradition, in- tegrating central themes and issues. We have a commitment to combining traditional lib eral education with prob- lem solving, futuristic perspectives, through a coherent and shared curricu- lum, said Lunine. The Upper Divi- sion centers around individualized programs. The students become in- creasingly independent and responsi- ble, The Bachelor of Philosophy Degree and its major of Interdisciplinary Studies offered by Western has five re- quirements: Residence, Breadth, Methodology, Focus, and Depth. Residence as a requirement is simply living in the Western College Learning Community for the first two years of college enrollment. The Learning Community of Western is comprised of 250 student, 15 faculty, Western staff, and their spouses, and Children of the facu1ty, staff, and their spouses. They are some 275 in number, In order to take advantage of the spring weather, Prof. Trry Perlin relocated his English Class into the Western amphlitheatre. Laura Baker takes time to do some late afternoon studying in the solitude of Peabody Hall's Lounge. The comfortable lounge provides a per- fect atmosphere for concentration. 105 Consulting with Prof. Rich Hancock, Richard Raymond reviews his last writing asignment. Curt Ellison tleftl, Prof. of English, discusses 'Walt Disney's life and films with Karen Buehler, Mike Irwin and Cindy Smith. Disney, along w1th Orson Wells and Francois Truffaut, were part of the spring quarter's creativity and culture core course. 106 most of whom live on Western's cam- pus. In addition to the formal academic contact with the faculty, students have opportunities to spend time together with faculty and non-faculty. They may meet in conversations over meals, in social activities, and in spontaneous get-togethers. This, combined with the common curriculum has provided the basis for students to share intellec- tual experiences and learn from and teach one another, said Allen Davis, Assistant Dean for Community Learn- ing at Western. We have taken a sig- nificant step toward developing a living-learning community where for- mal and informal activities inside and outside of the Classroom complement and reinforce each other and where re- lationships, to a great extent, are formed on the basis of mutual interest and respect rather than authority. Breadth is the successful comple- tion of the Lower Division curriculum. There are three Core Courses in the curriculum: Natural Systems, Social Systems, and Creativity and Culture. Satisfaction of this requirement also satisfies Miami's University Require- ment for graduation. Natural Systems I tfor Freshmenl is an introduction to the concepts and methods of the natural sciences, focus- ing on a series of fundamental scien- tific ideas drawn from the physical and biological sciences. Social Systems I is an introduction to the central concerns and methods of the social sciences. This course has two central themes: the individual and his or her participation in social groups, and the structure of society. Creativity and Culture I focuses on a study of the concepts of self-hood as it is developed and artistically expressed in different cultures and time periods. Natural Systems 11 tfor Sophomoresl is intended to develop one's ability to evaluate the impact of science and technology on human society. Social Systems 11 is a study of mod- ernization: industrialization, urbaniza- tion, and population Changes and the effects of these changes on people's lives. Creativity and Culture II provides a historical dimension to the study of arts, humanities, and culture. This look at the bonds between the past and present is accomplished by examining a variety of cultural products. Discipline-crossing aspects of spe- cific themes under study are, as a rule, investigated. A number of times throughout the year all three Core Courses look at the same topic from many different angles. Western's curriculum is a combina- tion of a general, liberal arts education lof the Lower Divisionl joined with areas of concentration of specialization tin the Upper Divisionl. As sopho- mores each student composes a State- ment of Educational Objectives, which is a student-designed, advisor-guided plan of education. The intention of the Statement is to assure both the inter- disciplinary Character of each student's advanced program and its self- conscious direction. In the Statement the student explains the choices made for the fulfillment of the remaining re- quirements for a Western graduate: Focus, Methology, and Depth. Focus : In consultation with an ad- visor, each student chooses a group of The coming of spring does not excuse studies, but does allow one to study under very pleasant conditions.

Focus is just that: a concent- ration and specialization of one's studies. Courses chosen for these cred- its might include an emphasis in courses that would meet the major requirements in a department outside of Western, though the i'major for all students working for the Bachelor of Philosophy Degree is Interdisciplin- ary Studies. The fact that only one major is available to Western stu- dents does not mean that it is confin- ing or restricting. On the contrary. Quoting Mike Lunine from a letter to a prospective student: '1 work will be done where an individual's tastes, talents, and needs apply, so that one could combine the Western Inter- disciplinary and Residential experi- ences with a concentration in a schol- arly field, or a technical field, or a pre-professional program; the Inter- disciplinary Studies major encompas- ses all areas of educational and voca- tional interests. HMethodology is the completion of advanced work in a year-long interdis- ciplinary seminar, usually taken in one's junior year. It will be in an area appropriate to the student's Statement of Educational Objectives, and has the general intention of guiding students to an interdisciplinary perspective by looking at specific themes, theories, and techniques of interdisciplinary work. The junior seminars are orga- nized around three general areas and roughly parallel the Lower Division Core Courses: science, technology, and environment; behavior, institutions, and and social Change; arts, humanities, and culture. Depth is accomplished through participation in a senior project work- shop which revolves around each stu- dent's senior project and its interdis- ciplinary aspects. The project Could be a scholarly paper, a scientific experi- mental project and report, a creative ef- fort and performance in the arts, or an extended field study research project, all being a culmination of the Western College experience. The beauty of the Western of Miami arrangement is that each student is en- abled to combine the liberal, interdis- ciplinary aspects tsuch as learning how to learn, how to approach and maybe even solve problems, how to express oneself and communicate with othersl with practical, career orientated skills. If the graduate has so chosen, he or she will have gained one or more special skills, and be well-prepared for ad- vanced study in law, medicine, gradu- ate school, or professional school, or for meaningful employment in any number of business, government, so- cial service, and other positions. Western College is an integral part of Miami University, despite its unique- ness. Much discussion has taken place about relations between Western and the rest of Miami. Allen Davis, in the 1974-75 Annual Report, said It is dif- ficult to strike a delicate balance be- tween being different and not separate on the one hand and being an integral part of the University with out losing our identity and distinctiveness. Mike Lunine commented: Since our pro- gram is in its second year we have only freshmen and sophomores. In the first two years of the program, the em- phasis is on developing a Western community. In the junior and senior years, most classes are taken on the Main campus and the Western empha- sis is lessened somewhat. When we have third- and fourth-year students, there should be a greater integration with the University. a Ed Tappel 109 In. order to catalog its vast microfilm collection ng L1brary utilizes a filing system. LIBRARIES The library system of Miami Univer- sity plays a Vital role in developing the purpose of higher education. King Lib- rary serves as the central library for the Oxford campus. Six branch libraries also serve the faculty and students: Art and Architecture Library located in Alumni Hall, Chemistry in Hughes Laboratories, Geology in Shiedler and Physics and Mathematics in Culler, and Hoyt Library on Western Campus. The worth of the libraries is depen- dent upon the person using them. Fac- ulty often use reference materials either for more detailed class lecturers or for publication purposes. The student uses the libraries primarily for studying. The libraries on the Oxford campus contain 850,000 catalogued volumes, 40,000 reels of microfilm, and presently receive more than 5,000 periodicals and newspapers. King, the largest library, has a seating capacity for 2,000 stu- dents and 550,000 catalogued volumes. King Library, also has 150 study carrols for graduate students and faculty. Special collections include the Samuel Covington Library of Ohio Val- ley History, the Ohio Archives of Folklore and Folk Music, and the Ed- ward King collection of Children's Lit- erature. King Library also has a collec- tion of the works by William Dean Howells. Future plans for library expansion include consolidation of natural science libraries into one facility, to be located in Hughes Hall. -- Gordon Moser The Art and Architecture library, located in Alumni Hall offers periodicals for reference and browsing.

A degree from the ar- chitecture division enables one to be eligible for professional registration as an architect, and the divisions of music and art strive to produce professional artists and muscians. Founded in the late twenties, the School of Fine Arts has almost tripled its enrollment during the past ten years. In 1975 the school awarded 139 undergraduate degrees and 12 masters degrees. The administrators are com- fortable with the size of the school and do not forsee any major Changes in the LEFT: Listening to tapes by various composers is one requirement of Fine Arts 23.

However,. if the school were to expand, they'd like it to encompass more departments. At many universities where the Fine Arts division is strong, the division encom- passes the theatre and creative writing departments. Columbia University and the University of Iowa both have pro- grams of this nature. A degree from the architecture divi- sion can lead to a career in urban plan- ning, landscaping, professional ar- chitecture, and subsequent degree can lead to college teaching of architecture. The architecture program was formerly a five year program which lead to an apprentiship, then registration as an architect. It is now a four year pro- gram, which is followed by a two year masters program, which is followed by an apprentiship. The two year masters degree is considered to be the profes- sional degree e the degree which is the equivalent of the doctoral degree of other fields. Miami's architecture division is very successful in placing its graduates. Often Miami's placement office Will be told of an architecture opening before it is publicized. Another factor which this success can be accredited to is the strong links that Miami has With her alumni. Miami's alumni support ranks 3rd in the nation, and her alumni tend to prefer to hire Miami graduates. The fact that Miami's placement effacy has BOTTOM LEFT: Run by man power this primitive wood lath, is being used to design a table leg.

Presently, there are more students enrolled in architecture pro- grams than the total number of regis- tered architects. In addition to training students to become certified in art education, the art division prepares its students for careers in painting sculpture, printmaking, graphic design, and crafts - such as jewelry making and weaving. Choosing between a career in graphic arts or painting is analogous to choosing between a career in journal- 113 114 ism or creative writing. When one Chooses either graphic arts or journal- ism, one is choosing a more marketa- ble skill. When one chooses painting or creative writing one is choosing a skill in which it is extremely hard to attain professionalism and a field where monetary gain is only at the top of the ladder. Students choose careers in the creative arts because they have some- thing which they want to say. They re- gard the arts as a vehicle of self- expression. The division of music offers both the opportunity to become certified and the chance to study composing, con- ducting or to develop the performance skills or vocal and instrumental music. Although the school itself does not ABOVE: Choral Union, a one credit hour voice class is one of the most popular courses offered by the univer- sity.

Although the school's music lessons are open to any- one enrolled in the university, because of the limited number of faculty mem- bers, first priority is given to music majors. However, membership in any of the school's vocal and instrumental groups is open to all qualified students. Groups such as orchestra, Choraliers and Glee Club require an audition. Choral Union, a one credit hour, music ensemble is designed for students who do not have a trained voice but seek the opportunity to sing in a group. In addition to preparing students for professions in the arts, the School of Fine Arts offers courses which fulfill the University requirements. Western Art, Western Architecture, and West- ern Music have proven to be very pop- ular ways to fulfill the humanities re- quirement. Though Miami's fine arts program is not as technical as the program of an art institute, or music academy, it has its definite advantages. The university requirements of the liberal arts college provide students with a broad educa- tion; not just technical training. Educators concur that a broad educa- tion is one of the primary purposes of a college education. e- Francine Sevel LEFT: In Art 367, which is a course in weaving, students learn the fundamen- tals approaches to the craft of hand weaving, and how to operate the loom.

The summer of 1976 was one of the more active such ses- sions in recent years. Apartments were sublet with little difficulty, as students scrambled to find quarters which would be more home-like and comfort- able than the dorm rooms offered by the university. Many reasons were given by the students for their decision to remain in Oxford. Certainly one of the most im- portant reasons was the conversion from quarters to semesters. In order to satisfy university requirements, many students were faced with the obliga- tion to enroll in a semester-long course if they were to wait until the fall to sat- isfy it. In order to lighten their load, these students elected to attend sum- mer school, thereby shortening their attendance in required Classes by 5 weeks. The smaller classes offered by sum- mer school also enticed students to en- roll for the summer months. Because the number of student-to-profesor ratio was decreased, with the bene-of more personal interaction with the instruc- tor. Many difficult courses were made easier by the readily available profes- sor aid.

Each curricu- lum within these departments includes basic technical professional and sup- port courses which provide the founda- tion for advanced study in a profes- sional field. The school of Applied Science en- compasses the departments of Pulp and Paper Technology, Office Admin- istration, Systems Analysis, and Nurs- ing. The Paper Tech department is one of only eight such departments in the nation, and is the largest. George Bowers, dean of the school, feels that Miami's Applied Science program ranks very high compared to other schools, on the basis of citations from magazines and business. To en- sure the school's quality faculty mem- bers are chosen by the criteria of de- grees and recent job experience.

In the departments of Pulp and Paper Technology, Engineering Technology, and Systems Analysis, the use of laboratories broadens the students knowledge in their respective fields. The function of the labs is to em- phasize the practical application of generally accepted theories. The diver- sity highlighted through the laboratory experiences is also a priceless source of knowledge required of the Applied Science major. In trying to solve practical problems, the student not only broadens his gen- eral knowlege of his field, he is also able to analyze accepted theories. The solutions gained through the work in the Various labs are essential for pro- viding the Applied Science major With the necessary knowledge for a future career. - Gordon Moser Liquid nitrogen vacuums must be hand-led carefully, and only by those trained to do so. 123 Photographs l Brain Parks Intently, Doug Wilbur, Brad Tonner and Mark Shaver transcribe today's lecture on the nation's economy.

The present enrollment of the school of Business Administration is 19020 of the undergraduates and 8020 at the graduate level, and Moeckel estimates that 2570 of the 1976 freshmen will en- roll in the school. This year eight new faculty members were added, but the student enrollment wiped out the gain. Moeckel said. The increase of the studentlfaculty ratio in the school created the need for the enrollment constraints placed on the school in March of this year. It is a move to maintain quality, said President Phil- lip R. Shriver, It applies only to the School of Business Administration, and we do not plan it to be a perma- nent policy. The enrollment-constraints will limit the number of transfers into the School of Business by establishing the condi- tion that students must have a 2.25 grade point average for 45 quarter hours or 30 semester hours. Students from other higher-learning institutions who plan to enroll in the school must have a 3.0 accumulative average for 90 quarter hours or for 60 semester hours at the previous institution.

Beginning freshmen, after September 30, will be admitted as pre-business majors and will be required to earn a 2.25 grade point average on at least 30. semester hours to be elibible to con- tinue in the business program. Shriver said the reason for the con- straints was to insure that students wishing to major in the School of Busi- ness Administration receive their re- quired courses and to insure that majors in other divisions receive the business courses they require. The enrollment constraints were enacted to preserve the quality of the school as re- flected in it's philosophy; which is for the business major to gain understand- ing of the private enterprise system within the existing economic, social, political, and legal environment. The Business curriculum centers about the development of the basic analytical and quantitative tools neces- sary for the effective understanding of business-related data. The Business School expects its graduates to have the increased capability to society as an individual in private enterprise, gov- ernmental service, or non-profit orga- nizations. The School's assertion of its standard of quality is its accreditation since 1932 by the Assembly of Col- legiate Schools of Business tAACSBy. The assembly is the only nationally recognized agency in collegiate busi- ness education, and according to Moeckel only 150 business schools in the nation received accreditation from the agency. The Graduate Business School has been acknowledged by AACSB since 1960. Location of the Business School in the Miami Valley, an area of high commercial and industrial activity, provides direct contact with the busi- ness world. Moeckel said the Schools' Business Advisory Council is made up of thirty-one business leaders, many of Whom are alumni. The primary Objec- tive of the Executive-In-Residence pro- gram is to provide for effective and in- formal communication between a suc- cessful business practitioner and stu- dents. This January the Executive In Residence was Jack F. Meyerhoff, chief financial executive of the Brunswick Corporation. A unique organization of the school of Business is the Laws Hall and As- sociates. Meeting during the winter quarter, under the direction of Mr. John Maggard, this group of marketing majors concoct advertising campaigns for a major business firm.

Laws was an inventor, financier, educator, physician, theologian, and once general manager of the New York Gold Ex- change. Students listen carefully as their professor elabo- rates on the fundamentals of business adminis- tration. Laws Hall and Associates were the only group responsible for the adver- tising done'for the Marathon Oil Com- pany. Matters were complicated by an agreement between the Marathon company and the government, which stated that Marathon would not adver- tise in order to bring people to the gas pumps. Laws Hall and Associates di- vided into teams, each producing a complete advertising campaign e from television to handbills. The Marathon company judged the best campaign and the winning team received $100, a trophy and a great marketing experi- ence. The school is also served by the Ca- reer Planning and Placement Center which is Visited annually by represen- tatives of over 200 business firms and 127 f Photograph l Ray Cushing graduate schools to conduct interviews with prospective graduates and alumni. The Business School plans a million and a half dollar fund drive for the construction of the Executive De- velopment Center. The building, ap- proved by the Board of Trustees, would contain 30 sleeping rooms, con- ference and seminar rooms and faculty offices. It's purpose would be to present short refresher courses for executives returning to campus. Rapid change, advancing technology and the increasing complexity of both private and public operations all exert increasing pressure on management at all levels to improve its performance. said Moeckel. The seven departments in the Busi- ness School a Accountancyt Business Analysis, Business Technology, Eco- nomics, Finance, Management and Marketing Management - offer courses in instruction leading to As- sociate degrees in Business Technol- ogy, Bachelor of Science in Business, Bachelor of Arts in Economics, and Master of Business Administration. Hamilton and Middletown campuses offer two year Associate degrees in AC- counting Technology, and Banking- Finance. Two thirds of the business faculty hold doctoral degrees, four have law degrees, and sixteen hold the CPA certificate. Forty-seven faculty mem- bers belong to Beta Gamma Sigma, the business scholarship honorary. Moeckel maintains that the dynamic growth of the Business School is due to the practicality of the students. Stu- dents today are more career oriented. It's no longer fashionable just to be going to school. Moeckel also said the Provided with an opportunity to exhibit their knowledge, competitive business students attack tests. As exemplified by John Borstein, the electronic calcultor has become an important tool for busi- ness students.

The division of education was founded in 1902 When the Ohio General As- sembly established a system of normal schools. In 1928 this program was ex- panded to create the present day school of education. The school's primary goal has always been the preparation of competent teachers. The program offered by the divison represents a very broad range of educational opportunities, encom- passing almost every aspect of teacher training. Although the Elementary Ed- ucation program has always been in high demand, the past few years have witnessed increasing demand for both this program and the Special Education program. Basically, the Special Educa- tion program encompasses the Educa- tion of the Mentally Handicapped, Learning Disabilities, and Behavior Disabilities concentrations. The School of Education also offers a large secondary education program. This program covers a Wide spectrum of concentrations, including the humanities, natural sciences, social LEFT: William Holmes McGuffey is the author of the famed McGuffey readers.

Prospective elementary school teachers gain experience and insight through work at McGuffey Lab School. sciences and the Practical Arts. The Practical Arts deals with concentrations which by nature are practical; these in- clude Physical Education, Industrial Education, Health Education, Home Economics, Music and Art Education. Moreover, a student majoring in sec- ondary education can become certified in most majors offered by the universi- ty. ' The Division of Education is in- volved in many special programs, which are not directly affiliated with the University. Many of these pro- grams are subsidized by special state funds. The McGuffey Lab School and the Heinhold Teacher Education Pro- gram are two of the special programs. The basic aim of the Heinhold Program is to aquaint students with the inner- city school systems. The department LEFT: Insect behavior is explained to an elementary school child by an edu- cation major as part of a Science Methods course.

With the help of hand puppets and an education major, children learn to freely express themselves. Home Economic majors learn cooking techniques and information concerning nutrition through departmental courses. also offers a program in which perspec- tive teachers are able to work with migrant farmers and their families. Thus it can be said that the school of Education offers many types of teach- ing experiences, dealing with various types of educational difficulties. There has been a recent proposal to Change the name of the division to the College of Education and Community Services. The prime motive for this proposal is the fact that education majors are increasingly obtaining employment in the area of social ser- vices, vocational services and business education. ABOVE: In recent years the blackboard has been replaced by the overhead projector. LEFT: Although the projector may appear complicated, media specialists learn to operate it with ease. Many classrooms employ Video tape technology as part of their daily routine. Secondary education majors can be cer- tified in the field of architecture. Due to the lack of availability of jobs in the field of education, Miami has tightened her standards in an effort to give students a better chance in the in- creasingly competitive job market. The university also advises the student to Obtain field experience early in his col- lege career. The merit of field experi- ence lies in the opportunity to gain ex- perience both in the classroom, and in interaction With teachers, adminis- trators and parents.

'x' a Student teaching is the most impor- tant requirement of teacher prepara- tion. Coordinated by the Office of Field Experience the student teaching program places the perspective teacher in a classroom situation. Under the auspices of a faculty member at the participating school the student teacher is given first hand experience in the problems that encompass the teaching profession. Miami faculty member counsels the student participant in all aspects of this training program. Miami has been very successful in its placement of student teachers. In the 1975-76 academic year Miami placed 865 perspective teachers in various school environments. Special programs are also offered including the opportu- nity to teach in Luxembourg or Mexico. Other programs include Camp Kem, a live-in-experience in environmental education, and the Heinold Project, Which gives the candidate a chance to work with inner-city children. The Hamilton project combines method courses with student teaching. Re- cently, a student teaching center was established in Mount Healthy, provid- ing extra guidance and help to both the cooperating faculty and student teach- er. Prospective teahcers learn the ability to listen is essential in the classroom. - Joyce Gallmeier 141 V 5 h E.- W ' .nllellllll 142 mucinmzn'rlons iiSomething agar 6Everyone The past few years have witnessed an in- crease of student involvement in extra- curricular activities. Some accredit this rise to the fact that students of the seventies have channeled their interests away from social and political concerns toward more personal inter- ests, which often produce more immediate re- sults. The placement office at Laws Hall has found that leadership and involvement in extra- curricular activities is one of the five major criteria which perspective employers feel to be most valuable for predicting employee success. Often times a company interested in someone to fulfill a managers position will seek a stu- dent who has served as a club treasurer, or as business manager of a student organization. Furthermore, professional school such as law, medicine, and dentistry also seek applicants who have demonstrated leadership abilities. At Miami there are over 200 extra-curricular activities in which students are actively in- volved. Encompassing everything from musi- cal groups, to religious organizations, to ser- vice organizations, to honor societies, Miami's co-curricular program comes very close to haV- ing something for everybody. In addition to providing students a diver- sion from the routine of academic life, extra- curricular organizations are largely responsible for the campus' cultural and social entertain- ment. Music organizations provide students the opportunity to develop their vocal or in- strumental talents, while at the same time pro- viding the university community with fre- quent evenings of musical entertainment. Religious organizations heighten campus awarness toward their particular concern, and allow members to interact with others of the same beliefs. Currently, there are fifteen reli- gious organizations which are active on campus. Campus Activities Council and Program Board are the two largest student programming bodies. Although their funds are self- generated, these organizations have substan- tial budgets and consequently are able to bring quality events to campus at a low cost to the student. Surveys and attendance records have demonstrated that there is a need for well- developed campus entertainment programs. Miami's co-curricular program serves the many needs of the students and the university community. Regardless of whether a student is involved in the band or in student goverment, the experience of working with a group, to- ward a goal, is truely a worthwhile experience. - Brad McConnell The variety of organizations available for student participation include: CLOCKWISE FROM LEFD STUDENT, MUSF, SEA, Marlins, Choraliers, Marching Band, and Cheerleaders.

The group works at the book exchange each quarter. To raise money for scholarships, the club conducts an annual mum sale for parent's weekend. Next year, SPERS Will be a coed honorary for junior men and women. tLeadership and eSchol arship In 1918, a group of interested college women from Swarthmore College, Ohio State University, the University of Michigan, and Cornell organized the first national honor society for women, which they called Mortar Board. Membership in the or- ganization was based upon the demonstration of scholarship, leadership, and service. Presently, 167 Chapters of Mortar Board are to be found at Ameri- can colleges and universities. The Miami chapter of Mortar Board is the suc- cessor of an earlier organization known as Pleides. This group received its affiliation with Mortar Board in 1922. Following the resolutions set forth by the 1975 national convention, Miami's Mortar Board group now plans to accept men, in order to recognize excellence 0n the part of all seniors. This year Mortar Board presented two China displays and participated with ODK in a cookout at Lewis Place. The major project of the year was the selection of new members and the subsequent initiation of these students into the organization.

Associated Student Government represents the Miami student's opportunity to be in- volved and have influence on his experiences as a student. Working through the numerous councils and committees, ASG involves ap- proximately 150 students, in addition, the Stu- dent Affairs Council and University Council committees, appointed from applications and interviews by the Executive Cabinet, offer an equal number of other student positions in University governance. In many ways, ASG serves primarily as a service organization, working to fill the needs of the entire student body. Examples of these services include: lectures, concerts, special weekends, etc., sponsered by Campus Ao- tivities Council; the Freshman Register; Bicentennial Babble tweekly newsletteri; the Student Book Exchange - to name a few.

Miami's Men's Glee Club founded in 1906, is currently the second largest col- legiate male vocal group in the coun- try. Ranked among the top three vocal groups of the nation, Glee Club is a mixture of both music and non-music majors. Basically, it is comprised of in- dividuals who enjoy singing, and the fellowship which accompanies singing. Members agree that the highlight of the year was their September concert tour of Europe. Together With their sis- ter group, the Choraliers, the musical organization spent 19 days in Europe. The groups were very well received and very pleased with their warm re- ceptions. Winter quarter brought a three day concert tour of Western Ohio and a combined concert with A Capella, Choraliers, and Orchestra. Their spring concert with the Highlander choir from Pittsburg is considered to be one of the group's finest performances. Other successful and enjoyable events in- clude a fall concert with the University of Cincinnati, an annual football game with the band, and an annual Hal- loween party with the Choraliers. The group is directed by Dr. John C. Warbuck Jr., who is also the conductor of the Chamber Chorale, Renissance Singers, and the Choraliers.

Membership in the Choraliers affords the participant much more than the one credit hour. First, it provides a unique educational experience which allows the student to perform good music of all periods and styles. Second, it allows for personal growth through group effort, Whether that effort be directed toward the production of a concert, preparation of a tour, or participation in a social function. Many of the sixty-six-year-old organization agree that providing the listening public With fine concert, re- flecting various musical periods, is in- deed a satisfying reward. Together With the Glee Club, the Choraliers have had the privilege of premiering the works of various artists, including premier pieces of Charles Davidson's PRAISES , Otto Frolich's PAX ATERNA , Mahler's SYM- PHONY NO. 8 and many other works. Undoubtedly, the many opportunities afforded the Choraliers reflect their fine musical capabilities and their sense of dedication. 153 4 i hty marching Photograph i Lynn Icano 154 For the Miami Marching Machine, the 1975 sea- son started as soon as the '74 season ended.

It was organized by a small but dedicated group of Black students and charged itself to address the social, cultural, and political needs and desires of Miami's Black students. Enveloped in the social rights fervor 0f the times, B.S.A.A. sought to increase Black pride and consciousness, to combat all forms of discrimination, to act as a representa- tive voice of Black student opinion, and to es- tablish an effective rapport betweeen the uni- versity environment and the members. These objectives were not minor tasks, but signifi- cant and far-reaching goals. And today, some eight years later, those same objectives under- lie all the functions and activities of the orga- nization. The present school year has seen B.S.A.A. take a more campus-wide approach to it's ac- tivities, attempting to involve the entire Miami and Oxford communities in the unique perspective it has to offer. Highly noted speaker lsuch as Lerone Bennet and Carl Rowam have visited Miami and spoken on to- pics ranging from the Black Americans' cele- bration of the Bicentennial to American in- volvement in Angola, all under the sponsor- ship of B.S.A.A. Theatrical groups such as Voices, Inc. and musical groups as represented by the Ohio State Jazleock Ensemble have appeared here due to the efforts of B.S.A.A. In addition, the organization has involved itself in organizing bus trips to neighboring univer- sities in order to allow Black Miamians to Visit the Black Cultural Centers of other schools. Fi- nally, B.S.A.A. has involved itself in the Uni- versity's attempt to make Miami more amena- ble to its Black students by meeting with uni- versity officials and scheduling open forum discussions.

Starting anewx each year by means of spring tryouts, past cheering squads have had to contend with apathetic fans, lack of fi- nancial support, racial con- flicts, and cross-fire from other campus agencies. However, they strive to serve the University to the best of their ability. This year's squad has built itself into an imaginative, flexi- ble group, always exhibit- ing their pride in the Miami Redskins.

The Miami STUDENT was first pub- lished in 1827 as a literary magazine called the Literary Focus e and it was a total failure. Luckily, it has evolved through the years and has established itself as the oldest college newspaper in the United States. With that reputation in mind, new features were started -- a wrapup of area entertainment events, a health column, and a consumer col- umn. The focus of the STUDENT began to Change too. Back from Christmas break, a little checking from one of the STUDENT reporters resulted in the story of the football team's damage in Florida. Another story in which the STUDENT gained prominence was the question of Miami's involvement with the Brazilian exchange program. Dur- ing the spring, the STUDENT report- ing brought to focus the issue of Presi- dent Shriver's decision concerning the coed proposals. With the advent of spring, and a new editor, the STUDENT again began to shift its focus, this time to incorpo- rate national affairs as they affect Miami students, such as the President- ial primary, into local and campus news coverage. The STUDENT hopes it serves the students and the University community in which it operates as both an informer of events and as a mouthpiece for student opinion.

This year Recensio changed its for- mat. The picture book that had pre- viously typified Recensio Magazine journalism became a thing of the past, bringing with it copy, continuous spreads and captions. The inclusion of an academic, a special historic section, intensive coverage of women's sports, recollections of Miami from alumni brought about a new dimension not found in preceeding books. Striving for better quality in pictures and writing, the use of photo and copy credits was also employed. The result brought about by these changes were evident by the hours of research and work each staff member devoted. The book is hoped to be an indication that this year's Recensio was not just another Miami yearbook, but that it was a comprehensive coverage of the 1975-1976 academic year.

GREEK LIFE: 143 YEARS OF HERITAGE It's only fitting that Miami, as the Mother of Fraternities , should have such a strong Greek system. Currently, one out of every three Miami students is an active member of a sorority or fra- ternity. Even those who are indepen- dents cannot ignore the activities and spirit which comprise these Greek- letter societies. Beginning with the kickoff Beer Blast, the Greek Week ac- tivities of each fall are structured to at- tract the interest of students who are not yet affiliated, as well as to provide entertainment for participating mem- bers. Moreover, the significant number of students participating in the annual rush activities, further demonstrates the popularity and solvency of Miami's Greek system. Presently, twenty-six fraternities and nineteen sororities are active on Miami's campus. Three of these frater- nities and one of the sororities origi- nated at the school. Since the arrival of the first fraternity in 1833, Miami's Greek system has continued to produce Greek organizations of high acclaim. The strength of the Greek System is evident in many ways. The atmosphere of loyalty and commandry is one inte- gral factor. The many service projects and charitable events sponsored by the various groups is yet another earmark of Greek life. Also of importance is tradition, which plays a major role in the continuation of the chapters. Through initiation ceremonies, meet- ings, interaction with alumni mem- bers, and annual events, the chapters strive to link the past with the present. There are many advantages to mem- bership in a fraternity or sorority. For freshmen the Greek system offers a sure way to meet people and become involved. Others join the Greek system for the various social events. These events encompass a wide spectrum ranging from beer blasts, to formals, to pledge pranks. Although each member joins the Greek system for their own set of reasons, the large number of students involved demonstrates the system's capacity to fulfill the needs of its mem- bers. The 143 years of Greek Life and heritage is one indicator that frater- nities and sororities will remain a in- tegral part of campus life. - Brad McConnell 181 Diligently painting, Cathy Schaeffer, Lisa Ful- ton, Michelle Gilbert, and Shelly Livner apply the finishing touches on the Tri-Delt and Chi 0 entry.

Sponsored by International Frater- nity Council and Panhellenic Associ- ation, Greek Week is a tradition serv- ing to display the collective spirit of the Greek system. A variety of com- petitive events provided a chance for everyone to participate, and the competition increased the unity within each organization. Greek Week 1975 started on Fri- day, October 10, with the Window Splash and the Kick-Off Dance. The week's activities included such events as the Chi Omega Bridge Tourney won by the Tri-Delts and the SAEs, the Pi Phi and Kappa Sigma Bike Races won by the Theta's and Fiji's respectively, the Delta Chi Marathon won by the Phi Psi's, and the Chi Phi Trivia Bowl won by the Fiji's. The Zeta's and the Phi Psi's won the Kappa Delta Roller Derby, the Beta's finished first in the Phi Delt Swimming Competition, the Delts won the Lambda Chi Chariot Race, and the Kappa's took first in the TKEquacade. The Beta's pulled first place in the Puddle Pull and finished first overall in athletic events, winning the SAE Trophy.

The Beta Tau Chapter of Alpha Chi Omega was honored this year by being awarded the National Council Trophy for the most outstanding Alpha Chi Chapter in the nation. The chapter opened the year with a full calendar of both social activities and services. A philanthropic project that was most rewarding was the an- nual Cystic Fibrosis Marathon held uptown. Alpha Chi's hold a 24 hour air hockey marathon to raise funds for children who were stricken with Cystic Fibrosis. The many social activities of Alpha Chi included the Beer Chug Contest, in which they remained the champi- ons, softball, volleyball, and bowling tournaments, formals, serenades, song groups and overnights. Alpha Chi was founded at Depaul University on October 15, 1885 and In Window Splash competition, Sarita Kapur moved to Miami in 1941. and Janice Bruno pool their talents to finish the Alpha Chi entry. 184 PhotographsiCraig Harmon ance Tom brothers, In a solo peer rushees, x ,, WWW.

Winter Quarter brought the annual formal at the Be- verly Hills Supper Club in Cincin- nati, and a successful rush resulting in 19 new members. Spring Quarter saw the Alpha Delts co-sponsoring the annual Greek Songfest with ZTA. This year marked the 25th anniver- sary of the reestablishment of Alpha Delta Phi at Miami. Although the AD's were the first fraternity at Miami in 1833, the Chapter closed after the Civil War not to return until 1951.

Volunteering at the Oxford Head- start Program is one way in which the sisters are working toward the accomplishment of their goal. They feel that helping children is more rel- evant and personally satisfying, than projects which are fund raising. Alpha Epsilon Phi was founded at Barnard College, In New York, on Oct. 24, 1909. Locally, it originated as the Phi Lambda Sigma sorority, which became national on Dec. 13, 1940. Annual events encompass such ac- tivities as, the Alpha Epsilon Phi window splash, a leadership training workshop with the national officers, a founder's day celebration and a spring formal.

E 3' Alpha Epsilon Pi's Alpha chapter was founded on November 7, 1913, at New York University, under the guidance of Charles Moskewitz. When the Miami chapter received its charter on May 17, 1964 they became the fraternities eight-third chapter. This chapter was formed in the B room of the ABC rooms tin the Uni- versity Centerl, once held meetings above Beasley's Bakery, and now re- sides at 404 E. Withrow. The Alpha Tau chapter offers its members the opportunity for active participation and chapter leadership. In addition to participating in intra- mural activities and various campus activities, the Brothers of Alpha Epsi- lon Pi boost a history of high aca- demic standing. Although Alpha Epsilon Phi has a great deal to offer, they do not try to be all things to all people. Instead they encourage their members to de- velop their fullest potentials. 187 In 1975, Miami's Omega Chapter of Alpha Omicron Pi reached its highest membership with 101 sisters. The thirty Fall pledges got the year off to a great start by capturing first place in the Sigma Chi Melon Mess competition. Later they took sixty sisters on a walkout to Purdue Uni- versity. As the fourth oldest sorority 0n Miami's campus, the AOPi's took a great deal of pride in both service and social activities. Every February, the sorority sells and delivers Sing- ing Valentines to raise money for their national charity, the Arthritis Foundation. Local service projects include ushering at Miami Univer- sity Theatre Productions and work- ing at the Student Book Exchange. The chapter also sponsors an Ameri- can Indian child in Montana.

On April 13, 1952, the Alpha Phi Sorority was founded on Miami's campus. Their national Founder's Day was October 10, 1872. The chapter participated in Greek Week and sponsored a sportsman- ship trophy. Along with fraternity parties, the sorority held a hayride in the fall, a Halloween party with the Tri-Delts, and a Big-Little Hunt. Winter Quarter opened with a se- nior Christmas skit, followed by the traditional Sig Ep Beer Breakfast and winter formal at Forest Hills Country Club. Alpha Phi also received recog- nition from the American Heart As- sociation, the sole recipient of their philanthropic drive. This year the chapter expanded Heart Fund collec- tions to the entire Oxford area, and broke the previous collection record.

These men held a Vision of an orga- nization designed to promote a more perfect union among college men. This organization would de- dicate itself to instilling the desire for personal progress into the minds of its members. It would seek to further develop brotherly love and to foster a fraternity spirit in the hearts of its members. It would also be concerned with the task of social justice. Based upon these ideas, these men founded the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. They established as its aims manly deeds, scholarship, and love fOr all mankind. Building on these ideals the fraternity has grown from its original seVen members to Over 60,000 men. There are presently over 236 college and 249 alumni chapters in 44 states. Miami's chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha was founded on May 29, 1953, with the assistance of Dayton's chap- ter. The accomplishments of the brothers range from All American to Phi Beta Kappa. In addition, the chapter has received both regional and national recognition by the fra- ternity. In 1970, they were awarded the Mid-WeStern Regional Chapter of the Year. Ever striving to improve upon its past, the Delta Upsilon chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha is presently involved in university and student affairs. 190 BELOW: The brothers of Alpha Phi Alpha enjoy an evening with friends.

Since that time, Chi Omega has grown and become actively in- volved throughout campus. In an effort to promote unity and friendship among all Miami's sororities, they sponsored the first Panhellenic Picnic. Held at the For- mal Gardens, this event was open to all Greek women. Another noteworthy activity was the traditional Chee-Omunga Party with this year's theme being a mock New Year's Eve party. Other activities included their walkout to Purdue University, a Famous Pairs Costume Party for which each couple dressed up as a pair of some- thing, and a barrel toss booth at the Program Board Carnival. As a service project, the Chi Omegas also deli- vered Easter baskets to the elderly in Oxford.

Membership expanded to well over 70, increasing from 29 just two years ago. In sports, the Delta Chi teams proved to be very competitive taking the league Championships in fOotball and volleyball, while finish- ing a close second in basketball. The, biggest social event for the year was the Fort Lauderdale House Dedication Party. The new house which was completed in the Fall of 1974 was officially christened on May 22. During that ceremony the Delta Chi's received recognition from their national chapter for being the top ac- ademic house in the Michigan, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and West Vir- ginia region.

The Sisters of Dikaia, the first Lit- tle Sis organization to be established on Miami's campus, was founded with the purpose of helping the pledges through Hell Week . This original purpose has been expanded, and today the group represents a brotherly and sisterly relationship within the fraternity. With the result of many long hours, sore muscles and blistered hands the Sisses captured lst place in the Puddle Pull, for the third con- secutive year. In addition, the sisses placed third in inter-sis basketball, and finished 6-6 in inter-sis softball. The group which believes yery strongly in planning joint activities for the brothers and sises, had a very successful sis rush, pledging '35 women. 201 The Alpha Chapter of Delta Zeta is the only sorority founded on the campus of Miami University. Delta Zeta also holds the distinction of having their sorority pin displayed at the Smithsonian Institute in Washington DC. The Delta Zeta's also have the largest number of chap- ters of any sorority in the nation. Miami's chapter of Delta Zeta is composed of fun-loving and versatile girls, who are involved in many types of campusactivities. Winter and spring formals, a RiVerboat party and a Halloween party are among their many social events. This year EDelta Zeta hosted a State Day for all Ohio DZ's . At a banquet held in the Heritage Room awards were given to the most outstanding individuals of the various DZ chapters. A Bingo Night uptown is the DZ's annual philanthropic project.

The Nu chapter was founded at Miami in May of 1974. Although their activities and many of their philosophies are similar to those of greek fraternities, the struc- ture of the organization differs greatly. Candidates are selected from eligible high school seniors, who must reside in Ohio. Scholarship, and leadership are two of the basic criterions for membership. The Evans Scholars do have mem- bership in the Intrafraternity Council at Miami, and participate in Greek activities. Greek Week, the Greek Songfest, and intrafraternity sports are among the events participated in. Social service projects include being Big Brothers to Hamilton children. Personal growth is their goal, group living is their means. 203 Gamma Phi Beta was founded at Syracuse University on November 11, 1874. The Beta Epsilon chapter was established on April 12, 1947 and since its beginning has taken an active role in both national and local activities. On the national level, the Gamma Phi's helped sponsor two summer camps for underprivileged children - one at Indian Hills, Colorado and another at Schelt, British Columbia. Miami's chapter also adopted an underprivileged boy and was re- sponsible for all his needs. A Delta Tau Delta 1 Gamma Phi Beta philan- thropy picnic was another annual project. Since its founding, Gamma Phi has grown to be an active, diver- sified group which strives to pro- mote the individuality of each member.

This year the Gamma Upsilon Chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta cele- brated the twenty-fifth anniversary of their founding at Miami. In com- memeration of their anniversary, Theta's donated money to Miami's speech and hearing department for desperately needed equipment. This coincided with their national speech and hearing philanthropy, the Insti- tute of Logopedics. Theta's also won many awards in- cluding a third place in the national Chapter standings last year. They won the spirit award for Greek Week this year and took first place in the Powderpuff Football Tournament. Among their many social activities, Thetas held a Pansy Breakfast, Theta Night Uptown, and several hayrides. Kappa Alpha Theta sorority was founded at DePauW University on January 27, 1870.

Every Chap- ter member buys special Kappa Delta Christmas seals each year, and the money collected from this project is donated to their national philan- thropy, the Crippled Children's Home in Richmond, Virginia. Locally, the Gamma Nu chapter of Kappa Delta was opened at Miami in 1958. Since then Kappa Delta has es- tablished many annual events, such as the Spring Canoe Trip, the Greek Week Roller Derby, the spring for- mal, and the senior farewell. The sis- ters also enjoy an annual Get Day when the entire chapter gathers to- gether for a great evening of outdoor fun.

The fraternity's four principle founders were Warren A. Cole, Albert Cross, John C. Mason, and Raymond IFerris. Presently, Lambda tChi Alpha is the fourth largest college fraternity in the na- tion. When the Zeta Upsilon chapter of Lambda Chi was formed at Miami on January 24, 1950, it became the 148th chapter of the fraternity. ' The year 1975-76 was certainly an eventful year at the Lambda Chi house. In the fall, together with Sigma Alpha Epsilon, the fraternity collected 1200 dollars for Muscular Dystrophy. Quarterly rushes brought a total of 31 new brothers to the house. In April the chapter hosted the Midwest Conclave of Lambda Chi and also won first place in the invitational basketball tournament. The Formal Gardens was the setting of the Lil SisSerenade by the brothers.

This year the chapter has been in- volved in a number of philanthropic projects. These philanthropies have developed a keen sense of productiv- ity Within the Brotherhood. A major project of the year was the building of an addition to the west side of the house. The brothers feel that their improvements have 'made the living conditions at the house unparalled on campus.

The Fiji's were founded at Jefferson College in 1848. They C01- onized at Miami in 1956 and were chartered in 1957. A relatively new fraternity on campus, the Fiji's have strong alumni support. Miami's chapter re- ceived a national trophy last year in recognition of their outstanding graduate relations. Each spring the Norris Pig Dinner provides an op- portunity for alumni to return and spend a weekend at the house. To accomodate an increasing member- ship a new wing was added to the house. A new library and chapter room were part of this expansion. In service to .the university, the brothers were strongly represented in student government. John Wil- liamson was Student Body President and Rob Mulligan was Executive Vice-President.

Since its instal- lation in 1972, the chapter has wit- nessed not only the building of a new chapter house, but also the graduation of its founders. Ohio Lambda of Phi Kappa Psi en- joyed many memorable events beginning with Homecoming and the return of many of the original founders of the chapter. The Phi Psi's earned third place in both Greek Week '75 and in Homecoming float competition. Rounding out Fall quarter, Ohio Lambda hosted an ed- ucational and leadership conference for Phi Kappa Psi chapters of the Mid-Western United States. The house also took third place in the fraternity basketball league and third highest GPA for fraternities Winter quarter.

This year's members again took part in many campus activities. In the fall; they sponsored their annual pumpkin sale and donated the profits to Miami Chest. Their traditional Mountain Dew Party with its truly hillbilly atmosphere was another noteworthy event. Their basketball marathon, which was open to all interested groups and or- ganizations, was again well received on campus. The proceeds from this event were used to sponsor an adopted Navajo Child. As their pledge service project, the twenty- eight pledges gave blood to the Angel Flight Blood Drive. According to President Dan Johnson, The Phi Tau's may not be first in everything, but we're defi- nitely one of the best. This year's Phi Taus were successfully re- presented throughout the campus.

With a background rich in heritage, the Beta Eta Chapter just began to es- at Miami. On April 3, 1976, the new Phi Mu Chapter was installed with alumni, parents, and Panhellenic Phi Mu's first year at Miami was an active one. One week after pledg- ing, 85 Phi Mu T-shirts were pur- chased, and the charter member of Phi Mu plunged into the activities of Greek Week, winning the Special Spirit award. Other social activities included Garter Day, Carnation Ball, and intramural softball. Faithful t0 the opening line of Phi Mu's Creed, To lend to those less fortunate a helping hand, Phi Mu supports the The Pi Beta Phi sorority was founded on April 28, 1867 at Mam- month College in Illinois. This year the Zeta chapter held many service and social functions. Arrowmont, an Indian settlement in Gallenburg, Tennessee was the site of their major philanthropic project. Pi Phi helped aid the settle- ment of Arrowmont by selling their crafts to students and donating the money to the organization. Another noteworthy service was the Ruth Lyon's Fund grant of a $100 dollars for a children's playroom in the McCullugh-Hyde Hospital. Their social activities included formals, canoe trips, Pi Phi night up- tOWn, wine 8: cheese parties and baseball games. This year's contribu- tion to Greek Week was the sponsor- ing of the first all-girl bike race. The success of this event established it as a Greek Week tradition. With the help of Karen Tracey, the Pike fire truck is transformed into a covered wagon. This Homecoming float was a joint effort of the Pi Phi's and Pikes.

According to President Jeff Tre- main, Involvement is the key at Pi Kappa Alpha and this involvement breeds a sense of pride and to- getherness that we feel is surpassed by none. Pi Kappa Alpha was founded na- tionally on March 1, 1868 at the Uni- versity of Virginia. Here at Miami, the 99th chapter of the fraternity was opened in 1947. This year the Pikes' involvement was widespread. Their intramural football team captured the all- Campus title, and the brothers built and ran the first Pike Obstacle Course in Greek Week. In the spring elections, Dave Hart was elected A.S.G. presidet, and Bill McGuire was voted Vice-president of campus activities.

With 290 chapters across the country they rank second largest in chapter number. Late in the night of March 9, 1886, eight young men at the University of Alabama at Tuscaloosa formed the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity. Al- though the fraternity struggled for sur- Iival it gradual spread throughout the' South. With the outbreak of the Civi EWar all of the secret documents and ar- tifacts were entrusted to a Southern belle, Lucie Patty. She latter became the only woman ever to be initated in the fraternity. The Ohio Tau chapter of Sigma Alpha Epsilon was founded at Miami in 1919, at the present site of the Ac- cacia house. The SAE's moved one other time before moving to their present location on Fraternity Row . The brothers have been active in many community service projects.

The brothers of Sigma Alpha Mu pride themselves on the fact that there is no typical Sammy . Their house is composed of various types of people with diverses tastes and experiences. In terms of academics they are consistently ranked among the top three houses on campus. In terms of athletics the brothers hold the title of racquet ball Champions, and are second place in bowling.

Since then it has grown to encompass both fnational and international chapters. The activities of the Alpha chapter include the annual sponsoring of Derby Day and Mellon Mess, which are held in honor of the sorority pledge classes. The SX's also sponsored a Marathon Run from Columbus to Oxford, the proceeds of this event went to Wallace Village for Children.

It carried with it a jeweled torch as its national symbol and a golden tea rose as its flower. At Miami, Alpha Chi distinguished itself from other SDT chapters by adopting the elephant as its mascot. Sigma Delta Tau members partici- pated in a variety of social events, including winter and spring formals. Along with other Greek organiza- tions they became involved in a number of philanthropic projects. The sister of SDT were very proud of their rush efforts and the fact that the 1975-1976 pledge class was one of the largest of their pledge classes.

Known for their Viking Party in the fall, they continued their party- ing spirit throughout the year. Their annual Luau Party was followed by the spring formal at the Netherland Hilton in Cincinnati. On the university level, a recep- tion was held in April for the Board of Trustees and Miami dignitaries. President Shriver headed the receiv- ing line. Seeking to serve the com- munity, the Sigma Nu's also spon- sored a blood drive. The Sigma Nu Fraternity was founded at the Virginia Military In- stitute in 1869. The fraternity settled at Miami on April 29, 1927. 221 Parties climaxed weekends at the Sigma Phi Epsilon house.

Its Kappa chapter was chartered at Miami in 1911. The Sorority's main philanthropic project is the Robbie Page Memori- al. Robbie, the son of a former na .tional Tri-Sig President, died of polio at the age of five. The memorial sup ports a children's ward at the North Carolina Memorial Hospital at Chapel Hill and the Cardinal Glen- non Memorial Hospital in St. Louis. Locally, the girls adopted an underprivileged orphan, Tammy. They also arranged a puppet show for the children of Oxford. The show was complete with clowns, a magi- cian, and a pocket lady With poc- kets full of candy. The Tri-Sig's competed in Greek Week, sang in the All Greek Songfest, and participated in the Beta Softball tournament. Beside traditional beerblasts, they had pic- nics, ice cream socials, retreats, and went on a walkout to a John Denver concert in Cincinnati.

Ac- AL REGISTRANTS STUD CED , PLA GRADUATION - The Alpha b Graduation 4 The Alpha and the Omega. For the graduate commencement day earmarks both the beginning and the end of an era. For many it marks the first step in which they be- come active participants in a society which is best described as changing. If the academic education is successful, its merit cannot be evaluated solely by the criterion of G.P.A.s and future job placement. If the education has taught the student to relate well to others, and established in him firm values, and a sense of direction which will provide fu- ture guidance, then the education is success- ful. Perhaps the fundamental merit of a college education is that it provides students with an exposure to various idealogies and the oppor- tunity to synthesize and form their own opin- ions. The experience of meeting and interact- ing with others of different lifestyles and cul- tural backgrounds is a learning experience whose intrinstic value cannot be measured. On the 13th of June, 1976 Miami University held its 137th Annual Commencement which graduated 2,450 candidates. This list of candi- dates included 143 for associate degrees, 2,047 for Bachelor's degrees, 232 for master's de- grees, and 24 for doctorates. The largest groups were 681 candidates for the degree ofiiBachelor of Arts, 458 for Bachelor of Science in Educa- tion and 407 for Bachelor of Science in Busi- ness. Former U.S. Senator I.

They were busy years - and happy years. Miami then was small but still in many ways as it is now . . . a univer- sity with the rather unique combina- tion of a lovely campus and fine teach- ers who provided a superior educa- tional opportunity . . . a place to come to grips with one's objectives in life.

SMUCKER OMPANY I am grateful to Miami, for my years there laid a firm foundation from which to grow. My experience at Miami was a combination of the trials of learning to discipline time and thought and the joys of making happy and lasting relationships. Miami had a friendly atmosphere generated by the administration and the community. I found there an excellent balance of academic, tradition, social and athletic activities, and physical environment. This balance prepared me to meet future challenges. DUFF D.

N ODINE COOK H HENNIGER-MILLER - 1960 CITY OF COLUMBUS AMBUDSMAN I thoroughly enjoyed the four years I spent at Miami, despite the fact I thought Oxford was alot like San Quentin. In retrospect, I must have majored in practical jokes, cards and movie going, instead of history. Granted one goes to Miami for an education. I got that by the up all night method. But more important to me, I learned to get along with all kinds of folks, a few of them pretty flakey, and to laugh at myself. All three have paid off pretty well over the years. ROBERT J.

FLETCHER KNEBEL CLASS OF 1934 AUTHOR I always think of Miami and Oxford with that tortuing blend of joy and sorrow. I return but seldom, for I'm not a man Who courts pain and I know that troubling ghosts stalk the Slant Walk and drift behind the great, bowering trees . . . Yet I hold Miami clear as one does an old and early love. Sometimes at night I hear Whispers of a college serenade or the soft slap of a door on the poet's shack that once stood in the woods of the lower campus. It is good to know that early love still lives even if I lack the courage to revisit her. JILL JOHNSON KAREN E.

Age, experi- ence and maturity allows one the privi- lege of a better evaluation and analysis of the past. My Miami Years hold a special place in my life span. In refelction, it has meant an education and springboard to the future . . . an opportunity to par- ticipate in an excellent, well governed athletic program . . . an exposure to the social graces . . . and the opportu- nity to meet the girl who would be- come my Wife and mother of three Ox- ford born children. Beyond the brick and mortar of a Miami building were the real people of the University; solid, fair, and the ones Who provided an intellectual atmos- phere. In addition to my undergradu- ate years, I had the privilege of coach- ing Miami teams for six years and liv- ing in the community as a student and a coach for almost a decade. DONNA L.

I found friendliness and opportunity, all on an individual basis that I would have been too timid to seek out in a larger and more impersonal aca- demic setting. My college years were among the most rewarding of my of those men and women Who made them so are no longer around to receive an overdue word of grateful thanks. DEBBIE MILLER: DEBRA A.

ADERS CLASS OF 1947 UNDERSECRETARY OF LABOR I must confess that reflections on Miami are not always academic. As pleased as I am with those recollections, I must admit that the fun side of it always comes back first. I hope Miami never loses that magic balance of intellectual stimulation and real human enjoyment that students of my generation enjoyed . . . It was a small campus in those days and despite the overwhelming number of Naval personnel there, still a quiet college town With no hint of the postwar boom. 287 288 LARRY J.

One should teach us how to make a living and the other how to live.' He must have been describing Miami. ' Miami helped to provide me with a realistic approach to cope With the challenges in my personal and profes- sional life; to set my goals high and to reach toward them by working to- gether with family, friends and CO- Workers and to respect people for their strer'igths, Periodically I think back to the ring- ing Beta Bells and what now seems like the care-free life of a student. At times I yearn to return and talk to those professors who helped to influence my path in life and strengthen my en- thusiasm for the future. RITCH M.

However, athletics is more than a free ride through college or a chance to see the USA. while playing ball, it is an opportunity for talented individuals to de- velop their physical skills. Contrary to popular belief a player does not join the team just because it's a family tradition - their brother was the linebacker for State or their father was captain of the team in high school. The reason for participating in sports are both as diverse as the individuals and as universal as sports itself. Perhaps the most universal motive is the satisfaction of being a part of the team; working with others to achieve a goal. The feel- ing of exuberation when your team wins the big game makes up for all the hours of practice and all the ounces of sweat. Football player Bill Wiggins feels the competition and discipline of organized sports better prepares you for the real world. a At Miami football and basketball are the sports . They bring in the most spectators and consequently the most revenue. However to judge the value of a sport by the number of spectators is comparable to judging the merit of a course by the number of students enrolled. To do either of the two is to measure quality in terms of quantity. The level of audience participation has a very significant effect on the players. As Jim Feucht sums it up, the crowd ex- citement motivates you to do your best because you don't want to disappoint the crowd. Men's sports still receive a significantly larger turnout than do wOmen's sports. Sure, athletes get scholarships. However the free ride through college consists of not the keys to a Corvette but free tuition, books and room and board. Athletes do not get blanket A's, the answers to Monday's exam or dinner at five star restaurants. According to Bill Wiggins, Athletes do not get any special favors! We're treated like every other student except we have a training table and all that means is that we can have seconds at dinner. The number of scholarships given by Miami is a definite asset in the recruiting of athletes. Although Miami's recruiting program is not as high-keyed as the programs of other schools, Miami still has a level of quality and a reputation to maintain. The latest figures released on grants and aid to athletes are those of 1973-74. the total was $355,000, football players received $176,000; basketball players $142,000; That year academic grants and aid, including the work study program totalled $918,000. Generally male athletes agree both that women's athletics should be funded and that scholarships should be given to the women. This attitude stems from a recognition of women as athletes. Educators would agree that the opportunity to meet people of diverse cultures and backgrounds is a learning experience whose intrinsic worth cannot be measured. In this respect organized sports are a fundamental part of the educational process. e Francine Sevel M Ell AND 62777672 The lady is a champ. The phrase ringstrue to those in- dividuals knowledgable of the state of women's athletics at Miami University and across the nation. The woman athlete of today despite the unfavorable conditions pre- sented her, is a champ because she has Chosen and bene- fited from athletics. The jock image of the sports minded female is one of those adversities. Sadly, there are still those ignorant individuals who adhere to the image of women in sports as dumb, showy, muscle-bound egotists. For them, there is much to be learned before they can aC- cept that the lady in sports is indeed a champion. Gener- ally, it is the individuals who have participated in sports e or those who have held true dedication for anything e who will first recognize the falseness of the jock image. The freedom for women's athletics must be allowed. Those individuals who still adhere to the image of athletic women as bra-burning, anti-male, aggressive jocks must alter their conception so as to View women athletes NOT as jocks, but as women who happen to be athletes. Women's sports offer the same aesthetic Values that men's sports do, but the female attitude differs toward her sport. Personal enjoyment and freedom from pressure to win are. stressed. The belief in the excellence of achieve- ment and in the intrinstic values to be gained by the pur- suit of excellence are of primary importance. Clearly the objective of the women's athletic program is to keep com- petition from becoming limiting or degrading to the athlete's non-athletic potential or to the sport itself. At Miami the Women's Athletic Department has recently been separated from the physical education department; it's office being moved from Phillips Hall to Millett. The use of Billings Natatorium, Withrow Court and Millett by the women's teams is an aid to their development. After a four year campaign to obtain a coach Miami has recently hired it's first full time coach for women's sports. Her sole responsibility is coaching. Miami's women compete with the toughest available competitors, and have the opportun- ity to achieve national ranking. In 1976 the jock image is no more than a relic, reminis- cent of a time when women were just venturing into sports. Madison Square Garden has been filled to capacity to observe a woman's basketball game. Excitement? Yes. In Tennessee All City and All State selections are made, just as they are for men. Excellence? Yes. In Iowa, women's basketball is the number one sport in the state. Loyalty? The answer once again is yes. These achievements are hardly to be rewarded by the label of l'jock . They are in- stead the sign of a champion who has overcome many un- favorable circumstances to deserve that title. For the lady is a Champ. e Julie VanDeMark 307 In '76 M.A.C.

Crum is intelligent and understands the psychology of getting the most out of his players. I just wish he'd smile more. As members of the defensive team, Feucht and Wiggins were administered by the defensive coordinator, Joe Novak. Along with Crum, Novak saw the Red- skins achieve a second-in-the-nation rank- ing in rushing defense and a sixth in total defense. Novak is a great guy, says Feucht. He relates well with the players.

Crum ended the season with an impressive 2 year record of 20-1-1, and was selected Ohio Coach of the Year for the second year in a row.

Cooperation and Hard Work: Ingredients for Success For the third consecutive year, Miami capped its season by par- ticipating in the Tangerine Bowl Classic as winners of the M.A.C. crown. The Redskins certainly de- served this honor; they showed only a hard edge to all of the teams they encountered, and ended the season with a 10-1-0 record overall. Dick Crum, in his second year as head Coach of the Miami Skins, was able to boast a 20-1-1 tally for his double season effort, and was again awarded the title of Ohio Coach of the Year . The credit for Miami's success does not lie solely with the coaches, however. At the heart of this winning team were several outstanding players. Sherman Smith, co-captain of the Redskins, served admirably as quarterback. In the area of total offense, Smith ranks second among all-time career leaders, and ranks third in the area Photograph - Mark Finamore 312 of rushing. During the 1975 sea- son, Smith gained 938 yards in 208 rushing attempts for 592 yards and 5 touchdowns. He personally scored 11 touchdowns. The most valuable player of this past season was Randy Walker. He readily demonstrated his versatility when he played three different positions within the course of the season: wingback, tailback, and fullback. Gaining more than 1000 yds. rushing, Rob Carpenter, a junior tailback, again contributed to the success of the Redskins. His rush- ing record of 1022 yds. is only the fourth such event in Miami football history. Defense was one of the strong points of the team, as the Skins ranked second nationally in rush- ing defense and sixth in overall de- fense. Mark Hatgas and Jeff Kelly led on the number of tackles and Photograph - Craig Harmon assists. An early prophesy of Miami suc- cess occured in the first regular meeting of the season. At Miami, the Skins defeated Marshall by the incredible margin of 50-0. The next game saw the end of Miami's 24-game winning streak, as Michigan State narrowly de- feated the Redskins by 14-13. With little difficulty, the Redskins dominated the remaining teams on the season roster - Ball State, Pur- due, Dayton, Ohio University, Bowling Green, Toledo, Western Michigan, Kent State - and ended the season by defeating their tradi- tional rival, Cincinnati. On Dec. 20, Miami faced South Carolina in the Tangerine Bowl at Orlando, Florida. The triumph and title were fitting rewards for the fine showing the team had made in its 1975 football season. - Brad McConnell The feeling of exuberation when your team wins an important game or a championship makes all the hours of- hard work and ounces of sweat worthwhile.

The team then took revenge on OSU, the reigning state champions, with a stunning 6-0 con- test. With only another two days rest Miami tied UK 1-1.

WOMEN'S BASKETBALL ENDS ON A HIGH NOTE Despite their slow start, The Miami Women's Bas- ketball team ended the season with a 9-12 record, Win- ning 5 of their last 6 games.

Ice hockey, the fastest team sport in the world, is the most difficult of all games to play and watch. Performing 0n skates and wearing a dozen pieces of protective equipment, the hockey player must move with his head up at all times to avoid body checks and free-swinging sticks. In addition he must manage to control the puck at the end of his own stick. The player must keep his balance and his composure despite severe body contact, and he must execute all of hockey's compli- cated maneuvers without breaking his skating stride. With 13 returning players this year and With key rookies Mike Burke, Gary Eckis, and Paul Kinney, Miami faced the toughest schedule it has ever had. In compiling a 7-15 season record, Miami found leading scorers in Gary Delong - 31 goals and 25 assists, Gary Eckis 2 17 goals and 26 assists, and Jim Phillips - 13 goals and 17 assists. Delong and Eckis worked well together and were a key team. Asbury, Delong, Eckis, and Sandusky also contributed as each scored three goals.

Although the scores do not show it, the Miami wom- en's volleyball team had a highly successful season. The Miami women were involved in competition with many of the area's best teams, and despite their average size of 5'5 , were evenly matched With most of their opponents. When the season ended, the team held a place among the state's top twelve organizations. Becky Pond is a senior volleyball and softball team member who has been a varsity netter each of her 4 yrs. at Miami. She has seen many changes in the univer- sity volleyball program. As a freshman, the team practiced 3 times a wk., paid for their own meals when traveling, and wore the same uniforms as the women's basketball teams. Since then, the emphasis upon women's sports has brought many additions to the team. Uniforms and shoes were pro- vided for the volleyball players, along with transporta- tion to away games. Also, the university supplied the coaches and trainers with a salary for their efforts. Pond has noted a difference in attitude toward all women's sports while at Miami. For example, she related that the use of Withrow Ct. was initially limited to men Despite their average hei ht of five feet five inc es, the Miami women's volleyball team, managed to block the net effectively and return the ball for points. only. However, this site was opened for use by the V01- leyball team. In at least one instance, several of the men aided in the set up of Withrow Ct. for volleyball matches between the Miami women and varsity netters . Conditions of the women's sports program have im- proved but still many inequities have remained. A lack of funds, for example, caused the cancellation of plans for a reserve volleyball team. In addition, publicity for women's athletics has been limited, such that the crowd attending the matches consisted mainly of parents and a few interested women. 3? ' V m t nix?

This year Miami's rugby team got off to a slow start but finished strong, losing only one game to Ohio State. The A team completed its season 5-4 and placed seocond in the MAC Tourney.

During fall semester of 1976, a beginnings course in Tae Kwon D0 will be offered for academic credit. The skilled club member administering the class Will be aided by Black belt stu- dents. The purpose of this class is to provide added exposure for the club and to increase it's student member- ship. UUHELUHUHELUHUHELUUVH 335 I In addition to standard sports such as basketball, foot- YO l I D ' ball, and baseball, Miami University's Intramural Depart- ment also sponsored some events of a more special nature. These include competitions in a tug'of war, a fencing tour- H A V E I O B I i nament, a Turkey Trot tcross country race and several other specialties. All told there were 18 different intramu- ' I ' I , I ral events and many of these were offered to mens, wom- G 0 OD O AY en's and co-ed teams. The atmosphere of intramurals is for the most part a good one. It generally lacks the kind of competitive win- THE G AME or-die attitude often associated with varsity athletics while still offering enough competition to satisfy the former high school athletes who can't make, or don't want to make, the varsity grade. -- Matthew Erb OPPOSITE PAGE, TOP: Softball team members observe while their team solidly defeats the op- ponent.

Despite very little support from the stu- dent body and from the administration, Miami's Volleyball Club went on to make it's second year a good one. This was the first year in the Midwest Inter-collegiate Volleyball Association and the players made a distinct impression on the other 12 teams by walking away with the champi- onship, winning over Michigan. The teams season record was only 7-3 but they were more outstanding in tour- nament play. Out of 4 invitational matches, the spikers took 2 firsts tinclud- ing their own tourneyL 1 second, and one third. The team should be strong again next year with only one graduating senior. Re- turning to the squad will be All- Conference players Bruce Nicolls and Al Minerich, who were the founders of the club. They led Miami through it's first season, one which was still unsatisfactory: they had only 3 matches and 1 tournament. Hopefully next season the dedicated vol- leyball players will get more of the recogni- tion they deserve.

Lyn Goldthrop became the lst Miami woman to qualify for the State meet, Kath Saunders received the All-Around award, and Mary Larkin, the only senior woman gymnast, re- ceived a plaque. Under the leadership of Coach Mike Kniffen and captain Ted McGuire, the men's club also improved greatly and broke eight records.

How- ever, to lessen the severity of their fi- nancial status, the gymnasts sponsOred many fund raising projects. The profits of these projects covered their expenses of travel, uniforms, equipment and judges. As a result of their endeavors, the gymnastic. clubs are no longer in debt for the year. The Club will receive only one-half the amount of funds needed to function without a debt next year. It is unfortunate that such a tal- ented organization is limited by finan- cial difficulties. - Nancy Kuck First Row: Seniors; D. Beadle, M. Bonar, M. Lodwick. Sec- ond Row: D. Monnin, C. Haynam, J.

Their record was 9-2 and the team placed a close second behind Ohio State in the State Tournament. The Miami team con- sisted of 1 senior, 3 juniors, 2 sopho- mores, and 5 freshmen. These team members, though new to the Miami Tennis Team, came to Miami with fine credentials and proved to be effective against their opponents. In their last five outings of the season they deliv- ered shut-outs to all of their oppo- nents including Denison, Bowling Green, and Ohio University. In the State Tournament Barbara Graham placed first in 3rd Singles. Their merit- able performances earned this fine team an excellent reputation and great promise for the future. Much to the surprise of Coach Strome and the squad, Miami's Varsity Tennis Team had an outstanding year. During the first part of the season Strome was dismayed by the slow start. During a spring through the South the squad managed only 2 wins in 6 matches. Captain Steve Kendall, who was a junior and the oldest member of the team, and Bob Gardner, an MAC champion last season, pro- vided some continuity to the otherwise young and inexperienced team. This year was the first time Miami's Tennis Team hosted its own Redskin Quadrangular, but Miami showed no mercy to its guests by defeating each 9-0. Even though OSU temporarily set back the Skins with a 9-0 shutout, they were soon back on their feet and in- creased their MAC winning streak. Although Coach Steve Strome in- sisted that his team was young, inex- perienced and had a long way to go, he would have had a hard time convinc- ing the MAC coaches of that fact.

Though the season was marked by injuries, there was a significant increase in spectator attendance.

He has graciously consented to a mock inter- view with the Recensio Sports staff. The questions were chosen so as to elicit these comic responses. RECENSIO: Is it true that bowling can cause you to go blind? VINCE: The way some people bowl, I, as an instructor, wish I could go blind. RECENSIO: What can you tell me about the rumor that bowling will be outlawed since it promotes gambling? VINCE: Well, the sheriff's deputy would have to walk up and down the lanes to catch people in the midst of their beer frames. RENCENSIO: Is it true that Chris Erb and Joyce Gallmeier were your best students? VINCE: Except for showing up ten minutes late each class period, and except for continually bowling below 100, and except for going over the foul line every time, and except for not knowing how to properly hold the ball, and except for bombing their scoring quiz, and except for not knowing how to throw the ball down the proper lane, and except for blowing the final, they were probably the best students I've ever had. RECENSIO: Is it also true that last winter quarter, 1976, the Championship game was under protest? VINCE: All I remember as the instructor, is that one hotheaded, steaming student left the class screaming I'm going to protest! I'm going to protest! But as of this day, no formal petition of protest has been filed with the B.P.A., P.B.A., A.A.A., C.I.A., FBI, or the P.F.U.A. RECENSIO: What is meant when a bowler yells, Oh Fudgel ? VINCE: It could mean one of two things. First, it could mean that he wanted to use foul language but by following the rules of etiquette, covered it up with this harmless word, or secondly, he may just want a piece of candy. RECENSIO: Is it true that bowling instructors are looked down upon as being dumb and uncoordinated? VINCE: First of all a dumb, according to the dictionary, means that you can't talk. You can ask my classes, I defi- nitely can talk, I do it all the time. As for being uncoordi- nated I can successfully walk and chew gum at the same time. So I don't know where they get this unsubstantiated evidence. RECENSIO: And for our final question, what are your goals in the big world of bowling competition? VINCE: My goal is to bowl in a grudge match against some women's libber, to have national television cover the match, to have celebrities pay 100 dollars a seat to watch, to walk away with 100 grand twin or losel, and then to fake, a blis- ter on my thumb the night of the match. That way if I won I'd be a national hero, and if I lost I'd have the world's greatest excuse. RECENSIO: Thank You very much, Mr. Vilkoski, for your time and your insight into the bowling world.

Despite the fact that the Miami Varsity Baseball team set a record of 40 victories, the 1976 baseball season could certainly be labeled disap- pointing. The team finished fourth in the M.A.C., and lost their own in- vitational in the bottom of the ninth inning. In addition, the Miami players missed a chance for an NCAA tournament bid by dropping important games near the end of the season. It seemed that whenever the team needed that extra something, it just wasn't there. The blame can be placed in no par- ticular area, but some unforseen cir- cumstances had much to do with the Skin's inconsistencies. These misfor- tunes came in the form of injuries to several key players, not the least of which were short stop Mark Naehr- ing, outfielders Paul Gbur and Danny Hall, and pitcher Bill Earley. Three of these four were out for the balance of the season. In addition to injuries, the team lacked that killer instinct that makes the difference in the close games. For these reasons, baseball at Miami was not entirely successful.

The Women's Softball Team had a great season this year, with a record of 15-1. Whereas last year the team lost two games to Ohio U., the women beat last year's record and also beat Ohio U. in two contests, paying back what they considered their only debt. The team was a young one, with only 2 seniors. The freshmen were un- believable. There were 20 players on the team, and their ability was equal to the tasks put before them. When sub- stitutions were made there were no losses of skill. Defense was what won their games. In slow pitch, where it is easy to get the hit, the team was able to come through with the tough defensive plays. FAR LEFT: Sophomore Milley Holoviak swings the bat for a hit against the oppo- nent.

Talent is first, of course. Talent, however, is not the only important factor. If a player has the wrong attitude all the tal- ent in the world can go to waste. Duane Thomas and Alex Johnson exemplify this fault in attitude. A bad approach to- ward the sport at which a sportsman is gifted can often lead to the end of a brilliant career. A third characteristic of the star player is concentration. When in competition With other talented sports figures, those Who can keep good concentration and not allow themselves to be distracted are bound to come out on top. Being a good team player is the most important quality any athlete can possess. Without the ability to be an effective, cooperating member of his team, the star shines alone. - Matthew Erb BASEBALL CARDS: Beginning left and going counter-clock- Wise.

Formed Heritage The past, the present, and the future are three intergral parts of the continuim. In order to accurately evaluate the present one must judge it in the context of the past. Some say that the past is only important as a vehicle which brings us to the future. However, to sever the past from the present is as short-sighted as attempting to sever the influence of the future from the present. Old MiamilNew Miami is an attempt to present a foundation of values, lifestyles and cultural influences on which Miami University has revolved. It provides a framework from which 167 years of academics were molded. Moreover, an examination of Miami's history reveals that her students have influenced every major aspect of the 20th century - government, sports, academics and culture. Miami has done her share to ensure the quality of American life. . Each student comes to Miami because of different I motives and seeking to fulfill personalized goals. Some come for the fine academic reputation - it's the best state school in Ohio; others come hoping to follow in the footsteps of Paul Brown; or because Miami is known as the Mother of Fraternities and Sororities. Regardless of the reasons a student selects a university, each comes with his own set of values, and the hopes of future enrichment. A major asset of an academic education is that it provides students the opportunity to be exposed to varying idealogies in the hopes that the student will synthesize and form his own opinions. The merit of the University lies not in its ability to mold students but to produce students who will be molders. The handbook, This Is Miami University states that che fundamental meaning of a university is Upham Hall bear the words, Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall set ye free.

If the change also provides ' A the student with a foundation of values and aspirations which equip him for life in a changing world, then and only then is the university successful. 360 OPPOSITE PAGE LEFT: A three year winning per cent of .995 has given Miami's football team national recognition. 1976 saw the team being selected as one of Sports Illustrated's top twenty teams.

Although it is note entirely accurate to do so, if one were to judge the solVentness of the Univer- sity by the ability of students to put into practice the philosophy of the, University requirement, then one would be forced to admit that the year 1969-1970 was a solvent year. It was solvent because students were aware of social injustice, hunger, en- vironmental destruction, and pov- erty. Unquestionably, they did dis- play their awareness through the wrong channels, yet one cannot say that the questions were wrong, merely because the erng means iwere utilized, in answering, them. Undoubtly, the light of social justice did not lie in the torchlight, nor the taking over of Rowan Hall. Yes, 1970 was a time period when many lost perspective on the univer- sity and-the world. It was a time when hundreds of students occupied Rowan Hall, although aware that anyone remaining in the building Will be guilty of breaking and enter- imprisonment. Concerned Here. ing, which is punishableby fine or However, it was also a time when mace and tear gas was hurled at students.- Butler County sheriff Harold J. Carpenter stated the following, I had some of- ficers hurt, so I was going to have some students hurt. 9' Leonard Haines, of' the Black Stu- dent Action Association, summed up the situation very accurately, hu- manity is what's concerned here. - We must strike until the University has made a fundamental change in its policy -- no matter how long it takes. What Haines was referring to was the proposal that the university increase their black population to ten per cent of the total enrollment. :However, the real truism lied in his first sentence, humanity is what's concerned here. Unfortunately, when Violence becomes an ansWer, humanity becomes a perversity. The year 1970 also attempted to examine the relationship between the university andwother institutions. On May 19, 1970 Robert Etheridge, Dean of Student Affairs, made the following statement: As an institu- 7 tion the University cannot become involved in social issue. We must .prepare individuals to exercise their own- Viewpoints and to use their tal- ents to find solutions to the issues, - but the university itself cannot be- come involved. . Perhaps H.B. Adams more accu- rately defined the role of a University when he said that the influence of a teacher is eternal. Because the uni- versity is one of societies most in- fluential institutions it must do its utmost to ensure the quality of life...

It strove to recognize the past, celebrate the present, and contribute to the future. Sadly, the second objective was the one most emphasized. Many will remember the year of the Bicentennial as a year of promotion, when the word Bicentennial was inserted on everything from half-dollars to peanut butter jars. At Miami the Bicentennial was commemorated primarily through cultural and social events. In many instances monies were set aside to bring qtiality entertainment to campus, which otherwise might not have been possible. The high attendance at all Bicentennial events can be accredited to both the quality of the events, and to the need to escape the pressures of school. Since this is a year to commemorate the past, it must also be one of retrospection. Ayear in which we compare ourselves to our idealogies, and to the idealogies of those who have gone before us. A comparison of the students of 1976 with those of 1970 reveals that there has been a turning away from both politics and public causes toward private interests. Unfortunately, private interests have not been accompanied by private solutions. The interest in ending the war in Viet Nam has been replaced with an interest in finding a job. In View of the current state of the country's economy, one can hardly blame students for being job conscious, yet can one condone being ego-centered? The passage of the liquor and marijuana referendum demonstrated that our university community does possess a capacity to change. In order to utilize this capacity to its fullest extent we must Channel it away from private cause to social concerns. We must strive to be concerned with the quality of life. We must not let ourselves measure quality in terms of quantity.

Yet, in many ways Miami University is a paradox. We pride ourselves on tradition, yet we don't take steps to preserve our traditions. The razing of Western's Alumnae Hall, the depreciation of Fisher Hall, and the proposed sight of the Communications Building, are all indications that neither aesthetics nor heritage are being preserved. Perhaps the most significant implmenter of change has been a group of students known as the C.S.O. The Concerned Students Organization was formed on April 10, 1976 when President Shriver changed two student proposals into reports for presentation to the Board of Trustees. In response to Shriver's action the group organized many rallies and confrontations with Shriver, emphasizing the fact that student rights were being neglected. John Coble, a C.S.O coordinator summed up the purpose of the organization: The central most important thing we did this year was to raise consciousness of everyone involved in the Miami University Community. Not only did C.S.O. raise consciousness, they were successful in implementing change. In May, SAC passed two resolutions concerning the process of transmitting council actions to the Board Of Trustees, and of determining recipients of Board agendas. Although many criticize the C.S.O. by saying that they are raising the same questions which were raised years ago; one must keep in mind that these students seek their rights not through Violence, but through administrative channels. It can be said that they are intergrating idealism With realism. Similarily, art professors Robert Gatson and Steve Hopkins, also found that they could no longer accept the status quo. Because both had dissatisfaction With the structure of the status quo always winning over the quality of education, they resigned their positions With Miami University. Gatson commented, At Miami a student has to learn in spite of the striic- ture instead of through the help of the structure. Hopkins' decision was based on similiar feelings: Miami University is a strange contradiction. It talks about a tradition but this is not a tradition of excel- lence, because it does not involve the idea of true self-examination. The university will function most optimally when men like Gatson and Hopkins not only refuse to accept the status quo, but strive to change it. In the realm of the continuim Miami can best ensure her future by commemorating the idealism of her past. Indeed the dream that a university in the middle of no where would survive, flourish and influence the world, is a dream of Don Quixote. Somewhere is the spirit of the men of Old Miami -- the men who mixed idealism, with realism, and formed a heritage. - Francine Sevel 366 LEFT: The natural beauty of Western is soon' to be converted into building space as Miami expands. .OPPOSITE PAGE, LEFT: Graduation is one'of the traditional activities of a university; for the graduates 9 it marks both the beginning and the end of an era.
