The vagueness, however, is what makes it so special. It can mean something different to nearly everyone on campus. To seniors nearing gradua- tion, it can mean the last semes- ter or year at the university. To an incoming freshman, it can describe the anxiety and anticipation of their first year of college life. To everyone else, it may mean gearing up for another year or finally having course- work turn from general studies to focusing on courses in ones major. These opening pages are de- signed to give a litle taste of the sights and sounds that made the year special, so hold on and pre- pare for an exciting look back, because This Is It!

Dukakis ' speech focused on the issues in which he feels the Republican party has not been dealing with effectively. In his speech, Dukakis states My friends, this election isn ' t about meaningless labels and it is not about fancy economic theories, it ' s about jobs and schools and health care and a clean environment in which we all can live. Dukakis also didn ' t pass up the opportu- nity to take jabbs at George Bush ' s running mate, Dan Quayle from Indiana. Quayle ' s service in the National Guard during the Vietnam War was largely questioned by the press. Dukakis states of his running mate, I ' m glad no one has questioned the qualifi- cations of Llyod Bentsen . □ staff Wayne Cartwright Wayne Cartwright Dukakis emphasizes a point to an estimated crowd of 1,300 people that gathered to hear him speak.

We expected an increase, but not this much of an increase, said Cliff Gillespie, Dean of Administration and Records. Students were met with long lines and a sea of red denoting closed classes in the card bank which created tension and stress for some students. It was a nightmare, said senior Kelly Marlin. I spent half of an hour in the card bank getting cards and taking cards back trying to get my schedule to work out. On Thursday alone, 5,879 students regis- tered which was an average of twelve per minute. □ by Ken Salter Sometimes two heads are better than one.

More than 5,000 Middle Tenn- essee citizens and MTSU students gathered to be a part of the campaign hoopla and to get a more personal and up close look at the Republican can- didate. George Bush dicussed his views on some of America ' s important values. He touched on such issues as jobs, tax increase, abortion, and drug abuse. If elected president, Bush promised to not raise taxes. He also voiced his support for mandatory sentencing and capital punishment for drug deal- ers. Bush also used the campaign as an opportunity to compare himself to his opponent, Michael Dukakis. He stated his beliefs in adoption instead of abortion, volutary prayer in schools, and recite- ment of the pledge of allegiance by children in the school sytems. The Vice President ended his speech by saying he was the man to continue the move of America towards prosperity. ...I see a new pride in the United States of America, this is no time for a retreat to the policies which failed us in the past. □ bxj Kelli Davison As state dignitaries and security look on.

Students, faculty, and friends gathered to observe this special day at campus. Hot, summer weather gave way to more fall-like temperatures to make the event more pleas- ant. The shaded, green area between Cope Administration and Peck Hall became the perfect site for a picnic. Workers from ARA Food Services set long rows of white clad tables. Burning grills were set up at the end of each table, and gave the picnic a more traditional smell of burning charcoal. Trucks laden with food provided picnic favorites like hot dogs, hamburgers, pork ' n beans, potato chips, and beautifully pre- pared potato salad and cole slaw. Earlier, the days festivities began with several organizations sponsoring booths sel- ling all lands of baked goods, candied apples, and T-shirts. Carnival games, cake walks, balloon tosses, and a dunking machine for those brave souls who wanted to try their accuracy. Throughout the crowd of MTSU students were Murfreesboro citizens who came to help the university celebrate its birthday. Brightly clad clowns showed off their juggl- ing skills, or amazed children with their bal- loon tying talents. Nashville ' s WGFX 104.5 provided the music, playing a mixture of classic and new hits. Young and old were able to appreciate this blend of music and all were able to enjoy a wonderful atomsphere. Around 5 p.m. the hamburgers and hot dogs were grilled to perfection and served to the hungry celebraters. Most everyone took advantage of the price of $2 and en- joyed the opportunity to socialize with others. After the hearty supper, the focus of at- cont. page 20, Frank Conley 18 Founders Day Frank Conley A dunking booth was one of the attractions at Founders Day.

The front of KOM was transformed to a showcase complete with bleachers, lights, sound system and platform. The stage was set for entertaining night. The Murfressboro Community Band per- formed at 7p.m. providing a rousing patrio- tic show comprised of John Philip Sousa. The crowd showed their enthusiasiam by giving standing ovations after such songs as It ' s a Grand Old Flag and The Batde Hymn of the Republic. Everyone stood in respect as the band finished the evening with The Star Spangled Banner. Jerry Clower continued the entertain- ment for the evening with his unique perfor- mance and his trademark aawwaahh excla- mation. Clower is a member of the Grand Old Opry amd a five time winner of the Country Comedian of the Year. After Clower, the band Cruise Control took the KOM stage and provied the music for the street dance. □ by Maria Carttvright The Carnival provided groups an opportunity to sell goods and gain exposure on campus.

Wayne Cartwright 20 Founders Day Founders Day 21 Campus holds its own Oktoberfest It was far from Germany, but Oktoberfest was a celebration just the same. Oktoberfest was the theme for the week-long Homecoming ' 88 celeb- ration. The week began with the fight song competition. Sigma Alpha Epsilon won the fraternity division with Kappa Delta wining the sorority division. Tuesday ' s events included the window decorating contest and the chili cook-off. Winners in the window decorating contest were: Beta Theta Pi in the fraternity division; Delta Zeta in the sorority division; Gore Hall in the male residence hall division; Wood Hall in the female residence hall division; and Phi Mu Alpha and Delta Omicron in the open division. A good time was had by all who gathered in MTSU ' s Livestock Pavilion. More than 400 people came and enjoyed the western atomsphere with home cooked chili, foot stomping music, and good companionship. This year was ASB ' s second annual Ocktoberfest Chili Cook-Off, and it was a success. ASB president Harry Hosey arranged for musical guests Walk the West to entertain the crowd and add that western flavor . Local musicians Eleven 59 made a guest appearance and opened the set for Walk the West. Different from last year, the event was held on campus rather than at Cannonsburgh. The choice between Cannonsburgh and the pavilion was between beer and electricity, said Hosey, we chose electricity. Last year beer was allowed since it was held off campus, however, there was no electricity at Cannonsburgh. Taking first place was a local insurance company Miller and Loughry. According to Libby Jones, a bookeeper, it is a secret recipe. Its been in the family for over 80 years, she said. Campus Pub grabbed second place, while Sigma Chi won third place. Also on the evenings agenda was the Sauerkraut Eating Contest. Jim Gannaway won it for Kappa Sigma and Stephanie Heath won for Chi Omega. Wednesday ' s attraction w as the scavenger hunt which required groups to collect items on a list. Each item on the list had a different point value based on difficulty. Thursday was activities day. The competing groups gathered on the lawn between Cope Administration Building and Peck Hall for events which included a keg roll and an egg toss. Kappa Sigma took first place for fraternities, while Chi Omega claimed the honors in the sorority division. In the male residence hall female residence hall and open divisions, Clement Hall, High Rise West, and Wesley Foundation won respectively. Oktoberfest reached a fever pitch on Saturday as the annual parade and football game were held. In the float competition, Phi Mu Alpha and Delta Omicron took first place in the open division while Kappa Sigma and Kappa Delta won the greek division. The football team made the weekend a complete success as they pounded Morehead State 49-0. At halftime, Rita Stone was named Homecoming Queen. Miss Stone was sponsored by United Students Association. Also during the halftime ceremonies, Kappa Sigma won the overall spirit competition in the fraternity division and Chi Omega won for the sororities. □ by Ken Salter and Kelli Davison Alpha Delta Pi sister Dee Dee Nicodemus raises her hand in triumph after successfully throwing the football through the tire as part of the pyramid football toss at activities day.

The 8,000 fans that filled the arena were not only vocal, but showed the tremendous popularity of the Nashville native as they sang along with several songs and were po- lite and attentive when Grant shared stories of her childhood and taking classes at Van- derbilt. Grant left no part of her career untouched during her performance as she sang Shadows, All Right, and Wait for the Heal- ing from her new Lead Me On album as well as the old favorites that first launched her into stardom like Friends and El Shad- dai. Michael W. Smith, a long-time col- laborator with Grant, opened the night with a 40-minute set that included a mix of up- beat tunes and ballads. Especially memora- ble was the ballad Hear Leesha, a song about a 15-year-old Nashville girl who was killed in a automobile accident. Gary Chapman, Amy ' s husband as well as a singer songwriter and guitar player in her band, was also given an opportunity to take center stage as he played a six-song set about mid-way through the show. Chapman was a big crowd pleaser as he presented a mix of music and humor. After Chapman, Grant was back and launched into her more widely known songs like Wise Up from her Unguarded album. The show closed with Grant singing Say Once More. □ by Ken Salter With intensity and emotion, Amy belted out Shadows. Pulling double duty. Michael W.

This version of the play was enacted in a form similar to that of the Reader ' s Theatre — there were no props other than chairs, there was no scenery, and the perfor- mers remained on the stage for the entire play. Unlike Reader ' s Theatre, however, the performers did not read form scripts; they fully played their roles. Also, instead of fac- ing during the dialogue, they directly faced the audience, creating an intimate relation- ship between the audience and the charac- ters in the play. Anouilh ' s Antigone not only was per- formed in a modern form, it also contained modem dialogue and content. Even though this was a modern version of Antigone, it lost none of the drama of Sophocles ' classic version. The passion for the performers was not bridled by their use of modern dialogue. Creon, playecfby John Lennon, and Anti- gone, played by Gina Brandon, are to be commended for their excellent perfor- mances, which never quite crossed that fine line between being life-like and overdrama- tic. Indeed, all of the performers did a fine job. The solemn figures on the stage in half- silhouette needed no scenery nor elaborate costumes to bring life to this play. □ by Amanda Cantrell Cast members assist each other, with the aid of the make-up crew, in applying theatrical make-up schemes.

The plav is a chronicle ot three sisters who were betraved by their passions. It takes place in the small town of Hazelhurt, Missis- sippi. This was the first student directed pro- duction and was guided by Shannon Parnell. a theatre student with involvement in seven past productions. When asked how it felt to be the first student director, Parnell said that it had been priviledge. I was verv proud of the outcome. Parnell said, including the positive reception by the audience and the excellent performance given l)v the actors. II I hail it to do over again, I ' d do it in a minute, Parnell said. The plav was broken into three acts. All of the acts were held in one room, the kitchen, which gave a type of realism and a sense of intimacv to the characters and the story. The audience seemed easilv seduced into a feeling of involvement with the characters of the plav, which could have been influ- enced bv the closeness of the audience to the stage. The three sisters are Babe Botrelle (plaved bvWendv Bundy), the youngest who still hasn ' t grown up; Meg Magrath (played bv |ennv Alexander), the rebel who is wreck- less; and Lenny Magrath (Rachel Mavbern), the oldest and most responsible. The sisters convey a strong sense of com- passion for each other when they are reun- ited after being seperated for sometime. The cast performed before sold out audi- ences for five consecutive nights in the Arena Theatre, which seats 150 people. □ Jnj Tunja R Forte 34 Crimes of the Heart The three Magrath sisters (Wench BinuK. leiinv Mexander and Rachel Mavlierrv) line each cither for Defense lawver Bamette Llovd, plaved In Keith Duke, takes notes for Bal e ' s ease.

In addition, the band has been distinguished hv guest ap- pearances at various football bowls, profes- sional football games, and festival guest ap- pearances. In the past, the band has per- formed at receptions for two U.S. presi- dents. I he lacets ol the band are manv; perhaps the most visible is the marching band, com- plete with auxiliary units. This group, in ad- dition to enlivening hall-time at all home football games, sponsors the nationally tele- vised Contest ol Champions, which is at- tended 1 band enthusiasts from across the country. This event is held even ' October on Horace Jones Field, and brings over 3,000 participating students and their par- ents to MTSU. The Symphonic Band has contributed to establishing the wind band as a serious medium ol musical expression in keeping with the highest standard of the profession. Its repertoire includes a varietv of styles in- cluding skillful transcriptions ol standard and orchestral literature, contemporary compositions, and inarches.

Duke founded the Middle Tennessee State University Jazz Ensemble in 1974. In the fall of 1979 they added the name Blues Crusade. Under the creative direction of Duke, the group performs the best of big-band jazz literature. The arrange- ments they perform are from the libraries of Count Basie, Stan Kenton, Maynard Ferguson, Buddy Rich and the Thad Jones-Mel Lewis Orchestra. The Blues Crusade also performs original compositions and ar- rangements composed by the band members. Over the years artists such as Kai Winding, Jamey Aeber- sold, Don Shelffield, Beegie Adair, George Roberts. Larrie Lodin, Nashville Jazz Machine, Jimmy Raney, Buddv DeFranco, Vince DiMartino and Denis DiB- lasio have performed with the group. MTSU enjoys the prestige of having Duke as its Blues Crusade director. George Peabody College for Teachers in Nash ille granted Duke his B.S.,M.A., and Ph.D. degrees. He has formly directed the bands of Lewisburg and Cohn (Nashville) High Schools and Tennessee Tech University. Al Hirt, Perry Como, Louis Armstrong, Elvis Presley, Edgar Winter and Doc Severenson are names Duke is familiar with; he has recorded with them all. Duke has been a member of the American Feder- ation of Musicians for more than 38 years.

These services are performed 1 commis- sioned officers, non-commissioned student officers, and other student employees. The commissioned officers provide serv- ices that include assisting motorists In ' jump starting vehicles or unlocking them and as- sisting county and city officers when re- quested. The officers perform routine police duties which include investigating cases in- volving burglaries, breaking and entering, larceny, drunk drivers, book theft, and traf- fic violations. The full-time non-commissioned student patrol officers serve as the eyes and ears of the campus. Thev write tickets for parking violations, escort females, secure buildings, and patrol campus on foot. Student patrol is best recognized for the escort service provided by the department after dark for females walking across cam- pus. During the past vear, student patrol performed approximately 1,115 escorts. Probably one of the more important stu- dent jobs on this campus is that of the dis- patcher. Duties for the dispatcher include answering the phone, taking messages, re- ceiving calls and complaints, while at the same time, recording, monitoring, and handling radio traffic, dispatching officers on calls, handling irate recipients of tickets, and issuing RIM studio keys to students. The dispatcher is the central link of the department who connects the officers to the public. Above Right: Book ' em, Danno.

The mellow music that comes into listen- ers ' homes is quite a contrast to the activity that takes place on the other side of the microphone. There ' s a casual, if not a little crazy, attitude on the part of the DJs, but the) say it is a necessary part of their job. I read books, pick out music, really do about anything to help the time pass, said Bruce Thomsen as he spun around on a stool. Although rock and roll is the favorite music of college students and most of the DJs, there is an audience for the station. We are listened to mostly by older people and the station ' s music is used in offices, said Thomsen, who is one of the seven stu- dents who make up the entire crew of DJs. So we do have to be careful, especially dur- ing the day, not to play some of the progres- sive jazz that can get a little loud. The DJs themselves are given a lot of freedom as they are allowed to choose their own music for their shows as long as they follow the short list of guidelines the station has. All of our music is numbered and there is a number rotation on the wall which we follow, said Joe Sims. As we go through the rotation, we just look at what number we are on and pick a song that has that number on it. We also try not to repeat all daw but other than that, it is our choice. WMOT is a public radio station which has no commercial; it is underwritten, ac- cording to Thomsen, a recording industry management major. Like any DJs, the WMOT air personalities get their share of requests and phone calls. There are people who call us up and try to tell us what jazz is, said Simms, who is a broadcast major. Things like that can get annoying sometimes. The experience of working at a radio sta- tion seems to be the major concern of the DJs as they only make minimum wage. I love the experience I ' m getting here, ' related Simms. I hope it helps me get a job at a rock and roll station someday. That ' s what I really want to do. □ Ken Salter Frank Conley With a tremendous amount of titles to DJ [oe Suns finds it haul to choose |nst 42 WMOT Bug out! foe Sims momentarily breaks up during a break between songs.

Mary Lee Arnold graduated, receiving her Masters in HPERS. This graduation was very important to me, Arnold said, because of my family s love and support. Arnold said that she had tremendous problems previously in her personal life and was able to slowly pulled herself together. In spite of these problems, her spirits were high as Arnold participated in her fourth graduation ceremony in Murphy Center. In May 1973, Arnold was a member of the first class to ever graduate in The Glass House, when she completed her studies at Oakland High School. She also recieved her Associate Degree in Nursing from MTSU in 1977 and her bachelor ' s degree in Health Education from Middle in 1983, before completing her masters in Health, Physical Education and Recreation in December. Students used their caps as billboards to show thanks to supporting family members. Over the past year 1,815 students graduated with degrees, including certifi- cates; 735 in the spring semester, 492 in the summer, and 588 in the fall. □ By Tanja R.

He was fired after onlv one month of serv- ice because of rules no- tations. Fall Editor Mark Brown was relieved of his post on September 21 after his request of a suspension of the credit hour requirement rule was denied. According to Sidelines operating papers, the editor is required to be enrolled in nine hours of classes during his tenure. Brown was enrolled in onlv six. Blown cited the fact that past editors had not carried the required load, but his plea fell upon deaf ears. He was relieved of his post, and Kim Harris was named interim editor. Later, Harris was named editor for the remainder of the semester. Homosexual activity revealed Contraversv hit the campus early in fall semester as Sidelines ran an article which revealed and de- scribed in vivid detail, homosexual activities which were occuring on campus, specifically in the Keathly University Center and Kirksev Old Main. Writer Tony Stinnett based his article on one month of research into gay lifetsyles. The article in- cluded photographs of homosexual graffiti, and explicit quotes describ- ing the activities. The article also revealed that a gay magazine listed MTSU, specifi- cally the KUC, as a place to cruise. Frank Conley Editor in race for ASB president fn the spring ol ' 88. Sidelines made its own headlines. Controversy, was found in the campus papers own backyard as editor Tom Stin- nett made a bill to become ASB President. Upon announcing his candidacy, the ac- cusations ol conflict of interest began to come from both inside and outside the paper. The accusations persisted even after Stinnett announced that all editorial deci- sions concerning the presidential race would be made by Chris Bell. In the end. Stinnett lost in the primary election, but his attempt made a potentially boring election exciting. It even prompted the Student Publications Committee to re- vise its operating papers to prohibit future editors from running for student govern- ment ' s highest office. Pepsi wins bid The campus became Pepsi ' s NEW CENEBATION as they outbid Coke for the campus beverage contract. Pepsi outbid Coke 53.6 percent to 47 percent. Evervtime a student puts 45 cents into the machine, MTSU receives 53.6 per- cent of that 45 cents, explained fames Cist of the MTSU business office. The profit from the beverage machines is considered auxilarv service income and is like any general fund in developing the overall university budget. Police crackdown Murfreesboro Police issued over 800 citations for moving violations on Tenn- essee Boulevard near the University dur- ing late August and earh September. The crackdown netted the city about $23,000. Monev is not the issue here. Police Commissioner Bill Jones said. We ' re not necessarily going to collect near that amount of monev. Jones estimated that about half of the citations were issued to MTSU students. 50 Campus Local News Texas town gets nod in coll ider battle Tennessee lost its hid for the Supercon- ducting Super Collider(SSC) in early November. Waxahaehie, Texas, a small town south of Dallas, was chosen as the site for the S4.4 milllion project. Tennessee was one of the finalists in the running for the SSC. Had it been awarded to Tennessee, it would have occupied ground in Bedford. Marshall. Rutherford, and Williamson counties. One of the prime reasons Tennessee was overlooked was the reported poor secondary education level. The largest scientific instrument ever built, the SSC will he encompassed within a 53 mile-long oval underground tunnel.

That was the ease as the Blue Raiders, who were picked to win the OVC by the coaches in pre-season, finished second to Murray St. a team predicted to finish fifth. The season began with the Raiders in the pre-seaon Big Apple NIT. The Raiders played host to Virginia Tech in the first round which was played at campus sites. Chris Rainey scored 31 points to lead the Raiders to an 88-85. With a victory under their belt, the Raiders were off to New Jersey to play Seton Hall. The team from the Big East was too much for the Raiders as they pulled away early for a 91-63 vic- tory. The Raiders entered their OVC scedule with a record of nine wins and four losses. The first conference test came from arch rival Tennessee Tech. As usual, the game came down to the wire with Teen erasing a late deficit to force the game into overtime.before falling to the Raiders 69-67. The Raiders first conference loss came at the hands of the Murray State Racers. The Racers came to Murphy Center and sped away with a 79-67 win. The Raiders barely had time to re- cover when just two games later East- ern Kentucky bombed the Raiders 88- 70. The loss left the Raiders with two losses in the conference, one game be- hind Murray. The Raiders appeared to be firing on all eight cylinders as they entered the second game with Murray. Once again, however, Murray was up to the test as they defeated the Raiders 82-66 and all but sewed up the OVC cham- pionship. The Raiders entered the OVC tour- nament as the second seed and after defeating Youngstown St. in the first round, had to face Austin Peay for a third time.

When the NIT bids were an- nounced, the Raiders not only found themselves in the field, but also matched up for a showdown with the University of Tennesssee Knoxville in Murphy Center. UTK ' s bad year, by their standards, didn ' t lessen the enthusiasm sur- rounding the game. People waited in line outside Murphy Center for tick- ets, and scalpers were reportedly sel- ling some for up to $50. 11,250 people packed Murphy Center for the game.

That, however, wasn ' t the case for the Ladv Raiders. The Lady Raiders surprised everyone and won the Ohio Valley Conference champion- ship on the way to a 22-8 record and a bid to the NCAA tournament. After being picked to finish third in the pre-season, the Lady Raiders raced to a 12-2 OVC mark to claim the champioship despite a season ending loss to rival Tennessee Tech. The Ladv Raiders avenged that loss bv pounding Tech 83-56 in the OVC Tourna- ment championship game. The OVC tournament championship earned the Lady Raiders a trip to the NCAA tournament where thev were upended by Kansas 81-75, ending their season with a 22-8 record. The loss, however, didn ' t put a dark cloud over the season. Getting to the NCAA tour- nament was far bevond the expectations of the team since thev had no returning seniors and only one true star in Tawanva Mucker. Mucker led the team in scoring and re- bounding as expected, but the contributions of the rest of the team were the kev to their surprising season. Freshmen Stephanie Capley and Kim Collier stepped in and made important con- tributions to the team. Capley was second to Mucker in rebounds and Collier ran the offense at point guard. □ staff Leading scorer and rebounder Tawanva Mucker drives to the basket. 64 1987-88 Women ' s Basketball First vear coach Lewis Bivens gives instructions from the liench.

In the OVC tournament, the Raiders were forced to take the tough trip through the losers bracket after an 0-5 loss to Eastern Kentucky in the first round. After MTSU defeating Morehead St. and Tennessee Tech, however, the Raiders got another shot at EKU. In the first game, George Zimmerman captured the win as the Raiders forced a second game with a 12-7 victory. The second game was a blow out as the Blue Raiders offense exploded and rode the pitching of ace Dave Richardson en route to a 20-3 victory. The NCAA Regional in Starkville, Miss, opened with the Blue Raiders facing fifth ranked Texas A M. Using the strong pitch- ing of Dave Richardson, the Raiders shut down the Aggies for a 3-1 win. However, MTSU ' s hopes for a trip to the College World Series were quickly dashed as losses to Missouri and Mississippi St. eliminated them from the tournament. For the season, freshman catcher-outfiel- der Jay Owens led the Raiders in hitting with a .377 average. Leading the team in homeruns was Mike Messerly with 19 and 71 RBIs; both of these were school records.

Shortstop Ed Pve slides hack into first base on a pick off attempt Wayne Cartwright Baseball 67 FALL P o r t s Frank Conley Despite title hopes, Raiders falter again As the old saying goes, Hope springeth et- ernal, and as head coach Boots Donnelly and his MTSU Blue Raider football squad headed into September, 1988 hope abounded among players, coaches and fans alike. Coming into football season, the Blue Raid- ers appeared to have a team that was a definite contender for the Ohio Vallev Conference championship. Although several key offensive players were gone from the 1987 squad, Donnellv had re- turning virtually intact a defensive squad which had led the conference in almost every statisti- cal category the previous year. Offense was an entirely different storv. We are young on offense, no question about it, Donnelly said prior to the seasons opener against Tennessee State in Vanderbilt Stadium in Nashville. We have a lot of freshmen who are going to see playing time. That is probably going to make things exciting when we have the ball — maybe more exciting for Marvin [Collier] than he wants it to be. Quarterback Collier, the OVC offensive player of the year his freshman season in 1985, was the only experienced offensive player the Blue Raiders had. The strengths and weaknesses of the Blue Raiders were immediately apparent in the sea- son ' s early going. Although the team held a 4-2 record — with wins over Tennessee State, Western Kentucky, Georgia Southern and Mississippi Vallev and losses to Northern Illinois and Alcorn State — upon beginning the heart of their conference schedule against Morehead State on Oct. 15, defense was definitely the name of the game for Middle. Through the first srx contests the Blue Raider offense had sputtered for a average of 238.8 yards and 20.3 points per game, while the de- fense had limited opponents to 240.7 yards and 10.8 points an outing. Following victories over Morehead and Au- stin Peay, the Raiders headed into Richmond, Ky. to face the Eastern Kentucky Colonels in a showdown for the OVC lead. The expected showdown never occurred, however, as the Blue Raiders decided they would rather concede the title to the Colonels and dropped a 27-10 decision. With their hopes of an OVC championship clashed, the Raiders faced the Racers of Murray State in Murray, Ky. the following week with only a possible at-large bid in the NCAA Divi- sion I-A play-offs on the line. Once again, the Raiders decided they were 70 Football H£— Hji Frank Conley not up to the task as the Racers squeaked out a 28-22 victory. The Raiders concluded their season with a 51-0 thrashing of intra-state rival Tennessee Tech in a game played only for pride ' s sake. The team ' s 7-4 record was the third consecu- tive disappointing season for Donnelly ' s charges following their last OVC championship vear in 1985. In spite i)l only winning one league cham- pionship, the 11 seniors from the 1988 squad posted the fifth best winning percen tage for a group of MTSU seniors since 1967. For their tour seasons of play, the Blue Raid- ers Class of 88 was 30-15 for a winning percen- tage of .667. Those ending their MTSU careers were NCAA Division I-A Ail-American linebacker Don Thomas. All-OVC defensive end Kenny Tippens, All-OVC defensive tackle Jack Pittman, quarterback Marvin Collier, safety Tommy Barnes, defensive end Marty Euverard, safety Dejuan Buford, defensive lineman Brent Shepard, defensive end Brad Cowan, defensive lineman Tonv Bradlev and defensive back Rodney Young. In an effort to replace the departed seniors, Donnellv and his staff began recruiting for the 1989 campaign by signing 14 area high school plavers — induing four running backs, three defensive linemen, two linebackers, two defen- sive backs, one tight end, one split end and one offensive lineman — on Feb. 8 of this vear. □ hi Mark Broun Frank Conley Big Hit!

Led hv seniors Chris Rainev and Kerrv Hammonds, Middle showed their Soviet guests little hospitality as they charged hack from an 11 point deficit with 6:30 remaining in the game to defeat the Olympic gold medalists 101-95 in overtime. Tliev just rolled up their sleeves and went to it, a juhuliant MTSU head coach Bnice Stewart said ot his team after the victory. They wanted to win. It ' s unfair that this game doesn t count. Although thev were outmanned inside — the Soviet front line of Tiit Sokk, Valeri Tikhonenko and Arvidas Sahonis was 6-3, 6-9 and 7-2 respectively compared to MTSU ' s 6-7, 6-6, 6-9 front line of Hammonds, Quincy Vance and Randy Henrv — the Blue Raiders managed to stay close to the Soviets, trailing hv two, 47-45, at half time. And suprisinglv, it was MTSU ' s inside combination ( Hammonds and Henry, who combined for 22 points in the first half, which kept it close. However, mid-way through the second stanza, the Soviets, who are generally regarded as the best amateur team on the international circuit, began to assert control, riding a 15-0 run to take an 81-70 lead with 6:30 to play. Fifteen seconds later Gerald Harris got two points on a fast break bucket and Mike Buck followed with a jumper to cut the score to 81-74. Valdemaras Khomichus responded for the Soviets before Henrv hit two free throws and Rainev nailed a three- pointer to pull Middle within tour. An Aleksandr Volkov juniper built the lead back to six, before the Soviets received a major blow when 7-2, 264 pound center Sahonis, who spent most ot the first half on the bench with foul trouble, left the contest with five per- sonals. From that point on, the game was MTSU s for the taking. Harris hit two from the line to pull the Raiders closer at 85-81 with :29 to plav before Rainev made it a one point contest on a three-pointer. A Rimas Kurtinaitis free throw gave the Soviets a two point margin, setting-up a juniper from Rainev which knot- ted the score at 86-86 with : 16 to plav, and sent the contest to overtime. The two teams traded baskets in the extra period, until the Raiders took a 97-95 lead on two Rainev tree throws. Rainev added four more freebies in the last :27 to ice the victory. This was one of the greatest victories we ' ve had. If not the g reatest, Henry said. We just knew that if we came together and sucked it up at the end we could make our run or it was over. Although his team finished their American tour with an 8-3 record. Soviet head coach Yuri Selikhov, appeared upset hv the losses, especially the last one. We lost three games while we were here. We lost two because we plaved bad and because of the officials. Tonight was only because of the officials, he said. □ By MA. BROWN 80 USSR Basketball CLOCKWISE: In your face!

They also blew a 10-point halftime lead at Alabama St. and lost bv 10. Their only road win came at UT- Chatanooga 88-87. The plav of the team in Murphy Center, though, was alwavs solid.

Though the team didn ' t plav well on the road, thev held their own in Far West Classic in Oregon. After losing their first round game to Clemson 81-77, the Raid- ers bounced back to capture wins over Chicago St. and Colorado in the consola- tion bracket.

The Spring semester was the final one for Dr. Gerald Parchment who retired. In March, Dr. Parchment completed 40 years as an MTSU professor, the longest term lor any current faculty member. While MTSU lost a valued faculty member in biology, it gained two new pro- fessors in Chemistry and Phvsics. Both Dr. Jubran Wakim, a biochemist with a Ph.D. from Indiana University, and Dr. Martha Wellere, a physicist with a Ph.D. from California Institute of Technology, came to MTSU in the Fall. Three chemistry and phvsics professors took noninstructional as- signments during the school year. Dr. A.E. Woods was in China lecturing and consult- ing the food industry. Dr. Robert Carlton conducted research in Oak Ridge, Tenness- ee, and Dr. Roy Clark spent the Spring semester writing a freshman chemistry textbook. Also Dr. Judith Boricamp was in- vited to Washington, D.C., with the National Science Foundation to evaluate research proposals. Along with the activities of faculty and the purchase of advanced instrumentation, was the activities of student organizations within the two departments. The Biology Club, the Chemical Society, and the Society of Physics Students was open to all students having interests in those areas. The Biology Club, the second oldest club on campus, sponsored the recycling program which helped fund thirteen scholarships and par- ticipated in caving, hiking, rapelling, canoe- ing, and rafting excursions. The Chemistry Society heard various speakers throughout the year and sponsored the semiannual de- partmental picnics. The Society of Phvsics Students held an invitation of under- graduate students into Sigma Pi Sigma, a physics honor society. Beta Beta Beta, the biological honor society held its semiannual plant sales and, in the Spring, went to a convention where Traci Turner served as Southeastern Regional Secretary. Both the Biology Department and the Chemistry and Phvsics Department con- tinued to grow in 1988-89. Dr. Patrick Doyle summed it up by saving, Students who go on to Graduate and Medical Schools (from MTSU) have excellent success rates; that speaks well of our departments.

The majors include Agribusiness, Animal Sci- ence, and Plant and Soil Science. The pre- paratory ' programs include Pre-Agricultural Engineering, Pre-Forestrv, and Pre-Yeteri- narv Medicine. The opportunities to use agricultural knowledge is no longer limited to a family- owned farm, hut also extends to non-farm aspects such as business, science, education, and communication. MTSU offers a farm laboratory that helps students work toward the goals of improving quality of all livestock species to the highest possible level and to optimize production levels for the cropping systems.

Sandra Rennie Sandra Rennie School of Basic and Applied Sciences 99 Journalism Tlic major purpose of the School of Mass Communications at MTSU is to produce broadly educated students familiar with the range of knowledge in the liberal arts and sciences and competent practical skills. The school offers two majors leading to the Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree. The major in mass communications offers opportunities to specialize in advertising, public relations, news-editorial, magazine journalism, graphic communications, broad- casting and photography. In addition, a printing management op- tion is offered through an interdisciplinary program with the Department of Industrial Studies and is designed to train management personnel for the printing industry. The curriculum for the major in Mass Communications, constructed around a core of basic courses, is designed to provide stu- dents with practical communications skills, while acquainting them with the history, theory, ethics, social responsibility and law of mass communications. Students majoring in mass communica- tions must take 33 hours of course work in the department. No more than 33 hours of mass communications can be applied to the 132 hours required for a bachelor ' s degree. The emphasis in journalism offers prepa- ration for students who wish to be news reporters, copy editors, feature writers, editorial writers, sports writers or print media executives in either the magazine or newspaper areas. According to Glenn Himebaugh, acting chairman of the Journalism Department, MTSU offers unique opportunities for po- tential journalists. There are a lot of advantages to the MTSU journalism program, he said. We have the new mass comm building that will be open in 1991, which will be a state of the art facility. We have quality faculty, and we are con- vienently located to the news capital of the state — Nashville, so we have a lot of oppor- tunities for guest speakers, internships and job openings. The broadcast emphasis offers students the opportunity to study the broadcast in- dustrv through class work and hands-on ex- perience through the university ' s student run television station — Cable Channel 33. Dr. Sam Ingram [MTSU president] has allowed the broadcasting department sev- eral funds which have allowed our station to upgrade itself, Tony Stinnett, Channel 33 sports director and senior broadcast major said.

Students interested in careers in the bus- iness, technical and artistic areas of the re- cording industry are among the RIM majors at the university. Success in the recording industry de- mands skill, knowledge and the ability to work under pressure with other people. A successful RIM graduate needs a positive outlook, a sense of creativity ' and just the right amount of assertiveness. The program is designed to prepare stu- dents for entrv and middle level jobs in vir- tually anv phase of the industry from market- ing of recordings to music publishing firms, recording studios, record companies, talent agencies, concert promotion firms, record store chains, record distribution firms, tape manufacturing companies, audio consulting firms, trade publications and a number of other areas. The program has been designed with con- sultation and continuing advice from the Na- tional Academy of Recording Arts and Sci- ences Institute, the National Association of Recording Merchandisers (NARM), the Audio Engineering Society, the Society of Professional Audio Recording Studios and the National Music Publishers Association.

School of Mass Communications 103 School of Business The School of Business consists of five departments. These departments include Accounting; Business Education. Distribu- tive Education, and Office Management; Computer Information Systems; Economics and Finance; and Management and Market- ing. Objectives of the School of Business are to provide a higher education and training for successful business careers, to apply basic knowledge and other abilities needed for futhering your education, and to extend to the public services through special pro- grams and projects. During the fall of 1988, the School of Business received a new Dean. Dean Bar- bara Haskew took over the position upon leaving TV ' A as an operations manager. She enjoys playing golf and has set out to im- prove the student-faculty open-door policy. This will increase class participation and allow students to get to know their profes- sors on a one-to-one basis. The Accounting program qualifies stu- dents for jobs such as, auditors, managing accountants, or financial accountants. It complies with the academic requirements set by the Tennessee State Board of Accoun- tancy to provide students with an opportu- nity to expand their knowledge of account- ing. They also have a fraternity, Beta Alpha Psi. The requirements are a 3.0 GPA, 3.0 in accounting courses, and completion of Intermediate Accounting I. The Business Education, Distributive Education, and Office Manage- ment! BDOM) program offers three career opportunities. These include office manage- ment program, teacher certification pro- gram, and a two-year business program. These programs prepare students to become secretaries, office managers, or business teachers. The two-year program is designed for flexibility in preparing students for entry level positions. This program has been ap- proved by the Tennessee State Department of Education. The Economics and Finance program is designed to give students an understanding of economic concepts and to provide them with a thorough knowledge of the techniques of financial analysis. This pro- gram is supported by three chairs: The Mar- tin Chair of Insurance, The Weatherford Chair of Finance, and The Jones Chair of Free Enterprise. Dr. Kenneth Hollman is recognized by the Chairman of Economics and Finance as a Superman for making the insurance program one of the best in the nation. Dr. Hollman stated that one finds a breadth of expertise in almost any insurance industry including claims adjust- ment, underwriting, accounting, and data processing the very nature of the insurance business requires a performance of numer- ous highly specialized functions. Most stu- dents that select insurance as a major or minor can find work that is compatible with their personal and professional interest. The Management and Marketing pro- gram helps prepare students for specialized careers in management and sales. This pro- gram also includes Business Administration which helps students to work in the business world without having a particular business field of study. The tools ot a computer programmer.

The B.S. degree requires a minimum of 36 semester credits in Psychology plus two minors of at least 18 hours each. The B.A. degree requires a minimum of 36 semester credits in Psychology, one minor of 18 cre- dits, and 12 credits of a foreign language. Minors usually include Sociology, Nursing, Business, Speech, Computer Science, Biol- ogy, or Criminal Justice. The M.A., M.Ed., and Ed.S. are advanced degrees and require approximately 45 credits of graduate level Psychology courses. The undergraduate program is designed to meet the needs of students with a variety of interests and career goals. The Psychology curriculum has three major purposes: to provide the knowledge in undergraduate courses needed to advance to graduate level, to prepare students to pursue careers in a variety ' of jobs, and to provide students with a familiarity of Psychology that will help them advance in their careers.

As well as a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree in criminal justice, the department also offers a Masters degree in the discipline. To be admitted into the Masters program, a student must have a minimum of IS hours of work at the undergraduate level in Crim- inal Justice or an approved equivalent. Each applicant must also take the Graduate Record Examination (G.R.E.) or the Miller Analogies Test (M.A.T.) and the Cooperative English Test. The department chairman is responsible for the screening of all applicants. The individual applicant should be admit- ted to candidacy after having completed 10 semester hours credit and before having completed 16. The applicant must maintain a cummulative grade point average of 3.00 in criminal justice. No fewer than 10 and no more than 16 semester hours may be counted toward the degree before the individual is admitted to candidacy. A degree plan must be filed with the can- didate ' s committee at this time, and all courses for the degree must be listed. The individual will also indicate at this time at which institution, MTSU or Tennessee State University, he will do his research and thesis. Students must take at least nine hours of the program at each school. Frank Conley 3 • TSIJ MINAIjus! Left: The halls of justice.

Programs in the department lead to the Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree with majors in Elementary Education, Early Childhood Education or Special Education. The Early Childhood Education is offered through an interdisciplinary program with the Department of Home Economics. A minor in Special Education is also available. As an extra benefit to Education students at MTSU, the department announced last fall the formation of a chair of excellence named in honor of 1988 National Teacher of the Year Teny Weeks. Weeks, a graduate of the MTSU Educa- tion Department and teacher at Central Middle School in Murfreesboro, was named National Teacher of the Year by Pres. Ronald Reagan last spring. It ' s not necessary to go to a preppy Ivy League school in order to be successful in life, university Pres. Sam H. Ingram said of Weeks achievement, quoting another MTSU alumnus, 1986 winner of the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics James Bucha- nan. Sandra Rennie The wonders of youth. Dr. Joyce E.

She leads him by the hand to his classroom, cheerful in its bouncy yellow and white countenance, and turns him over to his teacher. But wait, isn ' t this colleger ' What are chil- dren doing here? Actively participating in the broad educa- tional goals that all students on the MTSU campus have. Many children, ages 3 to 5, live on campus in family student housing and when their parents attend classes or go to work, the children go to the MTSU day- care facility. The official name for the facility, which is open to children of MTSU students, fac- ulty, stall and the community, is the MTSU daycare lab. Its function is not only to care for children, but also to educate college stu- dents in dealing with children. Although James wants to encourage other students to isit, most are education, nursing, and psychology majors who use the daycare to learn about children, hence the term lab . One comforting advantage of the day- care lab is its location in the middle of fam- ily housing. The most obvious convience is the loca- tion, says Karen Weller, MTSU student and mother ol twin boys, Shawn and [oseph. Weller takes a seat in the tinv, brightly colored chairs. She stops bv daily to pick up both her 4-vear-old boys who attend the daycare lab. A maximum of 25 full-time children are currently enrolled in the program and many parents feel more secure with their children in this environment. It ' s nice how it ' s set up, Weller says as her boys flv paper airplanes over her head. I like how it s one big room and the children don ' t get lost here, she saws, turning to smile at one of the student teachers, Jerome Marsh, an elementary education major. Parents, especially those attending col- lege on a tight income, must also consider the cost of their daycare options. Moneywise, it ' s less expensive than other daycares, Weller says. Other daycares in town were in the $45 to $50 dollar per week range, while the on-campus facility is $38.50 per week, Weller explained. The weekly fee for part-time enrollment is $28.50, while full-time enrollment is $38.50 according to Nancy James, director of the facility. James was a temporary worker at the day- care lab all last semester and was named the directors position this year on fan. 9. The only other full-time staff member is Zona Frazier, an employee of 4 years. James experiences in the childcare field include working in the public school system and at Opryland Hotel ' s 24-hour daycare service for the hotels employees. When I first got here, Zona asked me if I was used to the noise, James recalls in the soft silence of the now empty school- room. The daycare at Opryland had 200 children of a wide age range, from 6-weeks- old to school age. and I thought to myself, You don ' t know what loud is, James says with a quiet laugh, her eyes a little distant. It ' s such a nice setup here, fames says. Since the daycare is only for children from 3 to 5 years old, we are targeting children in basically the same learning range, fames says, hands articulating in the air. The older children are not bored; they ' re still excited about what the 3-year-olds are just learning how to do, fames says.

Priseilla Van Tries , Project HELP teacher and ad- ministrator, works with the children on visual com- munication skills.

Wayne Cartwright Project HELP There is a time in everyone ' s life when the help of another person is needed; in fact, life is full of situations where assistance is required for a person to overcome and adapt to certain obstacles. And hopefully in the future the recipient of such good will can return the deed by helping someone else. At Project HELP (Help Educate Little People), located on the MTSU campus, as- sistance is given to children four years old and younger who have developmental dif- ficulties and need extra nurturing during the early, yet critical, stages of their lives. The service is provided to anv family in Rutherford County that requires help with children that have certain physical, mental, and or emotional difficulties. A large per- centage of the children will be in the mainstream of the educational process when they leave Project HELP, while others may require further aid in their educational de- velopment in later years. However, it is important to realize that these children are just the same as other children in that they enjoy playing games, listening to records, playing with a variety of toys and having all the attention thev can possibly grab from adults. Dr. Ann Campbell of the Education De- partment started the program in 1983 with the help of various federal grants and has watched as the program has expanded. MTSU students from various departments on campus work in the program as volun- teers. Daycare Center Project HELP 113 First Aid and Safety Each year more than 140,000 Americans die from injuries while more than 80,000 suffer from permanently disabling injuries. Motor-vehicle accidents cause more deaths in the age group 18-24 than anything else. These are important reasons to offer first aid in the university curriculum. First Aid, a class in the HPERS depart- ment, is a unique course combining skills with theory. The course is designed to pre- pare students with first aid knowledge and skills necessaiy to care for most injuries and to meet most emergencies. It also provides accident prevention information. First Aid is one of the most popular classes offered at MTSU and is regularly taken by over 400 students a year. Since the professors who teach this course are affiliated with the American Red Cross, students receive Red Cross certification upon successful completion of the class, making them eligible for jobs where Stan- dard First Aid and Cardiopulmonary Resus- citation training is required. First Aid has been an important course in the HPERS curriculum at MTSU for over 50 years. At one time, it was taught by ag- riculture profesor B.R. Gracy. Coach Joe Black Hayes guided the program from 1950 until his retirement in the late 1970s. Safety and First Aid was required of all students in education until recently. Safety and First Aid serves as a required course for HPERS majors and as an elective for students throughout the university. Many students who have received the training have become community instruc- tors throughout the state. First Aid teachers in the HPERS department this year include Dean Hayes, Jimmy Earle, George Camp, Katherine Strobel and Ralph Ballou. The class is unique in that it combines theoiy and skills. For example, not only does a student learn the risk factors associated with cardiovascular disease, but what steps to take in giving CPR in case of heart failure. Doctors recognize the importance of laymen being trained to care for the injured until professional medical help arrives at the scene of an accident. The Safety and First Aid class provides the training which could make a difference. Wayne Cartwright Above: The kiss of life.

The more than 5,000 students annually who take activities courses can also choose from whitewater canoeing, bowling, scuba diving, roller skating, backpacking and bicycling in appropriate off-campus loca- tions. The HPERS Department offers a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree with three emphases. The Health Education emphasis prepares students for certification to teach health in elementary and high school. A non-teaching curriculum is also available. The Physical Education emphasis pre- pares students to teach P.E. in grades K through 12. A non-teaching curriculum is available. Students may also choose the Recreation emphasis which has three areas — outdoor, specialized or therapeutic. The department also offers minors in ath- letic coaching, dance, driv er and traffic safety education, health, health and phv sical education, phv sical education and recre- ation. Sandra Rennie Sandra Rennie School of Education 115 English A university education should prepare a student for life as well ass making a living. The English Department at MTSU feels it can help in students in preparation for both. Developing the ability to read, write and understand the English language is both an end in itself and a means to an end. When students become better readers and writers, thev also become more knowledgeable of themselves and of their world, more at home with both. Thev learn to live more fully. At the same time, thev acquire skills that will give them an advantage in the market place. MTSU requires 12 semester hours of gen- eral studies English of all students for gradu- ation. Students complete this requirement In- taking Enlish 111 and 112, in sequence; English 211; and either English 221, 223 or 224. Juniors and seniors establish English minors by completing three upper-division English courses after taking the four courses required during the first two years. English is a popular minor at MTSU be- cause the uncomplicated requirements leave students a wide choice of courses, and because many students and their advisors see the English minor as complementary to majors in such fields as history, political sci- ence and pre-law, mass communications and the arts. Juniors and seniors establish English majors by completing ten courses beyond their required freshman and sophomore courses. The ten courses consist of English 300 and courses choses from six groups rep- resenting major aspects of literature and lan- guage studies. Frank Conley 116 Academics Sandra Rennie Foreign Language Learning a foreign language can he a very enlightening experience for any college stu- dent, and MTSU foreign languages depart- ment aims to provide that enlightenment. Foreign language study at the university can increase a graduate ' s career oppor- tunities in the business world, and can pro- vide them with a competitive edge other prospective employees won ' t have. Surveys have shown that multi-linguists have higher verbal scores on many standar- dized tests. Learning a forcing language also improves English skills. On top of all that, foreign language study at MTSU fulfills a General Studies require- ment in all departments. General studies courses are offered in French, German and Spanish. These courses are designed to teach basic com- munications skills in these languages. Advanced studies are also offered in these courses. II a student has previously studied one of these languages, they may opt for the de- partment s Placement Exam, which allows students to earn up to i2 credit hours for language skills attained in high school, (lur- ing foreign residence or at home. The test allows the department to deter- mine at what level a student should enroll. Credit earned on the Placement Exam will be awarded when the recommended course has been successfully completed. The Foreign Language department is equiped with a new, modern language lab- oratory, and offers students the opportunity to hone their skills in foreign countries through various education programs. The department also offers opportunities to interact with native speakers in a social setting, and is operated in a friendly and sympathetic atmosphere. Art department MTSU students seeking a career and art will be glad to find that the university ' s art department is actively invoked in helping individuals do just that. The Art Department ' s programs are designed to open doors into the world of visual expression and intellectual development. The department encourages students to sample a variety of art disciplines and make an informed choice about their direction in art. Two degrees are offered in the program — the Bachelor of Fine Aits (B.F.A.) and the Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree. The B.F.A. is designed for students who wish to study in preparation for a career in studio arts such as painting, sculpture, printmaking. ceramics, jewelry, commercial art and photography. The B.S. degree is designed for students who aspire to teach art in public schools. Two special minors are also offered to complement the B.F.A. and B.S. programs. These art- the pre-professional programs in Art Therapy (minor in Psychology), Art Therapy-gerontology (minor in gerontology) and Art Administration (minor in Business Administration). A special minor can be designed by a student and the chairperson of the Art Department if existing minors do not meet the unique needs or interests of an individual student. The Art Department also has the Bam Gallery and the Student Center Gallery, which frequently house visiting artists and critics to share their ideas and world experience through workshops, lectures and seminars.

The university offers majors in both geog- raphy and geologv on the undergraduate area, with four emphases in geography and two under geology. Geography students may choose a Foreign Area Emphasis, which consists of 30 credit-hours credit work with 15 coming from geography and the remainder includ- ing a foreign language and courses in inter- national relations and diplomatic history. A physical geography emphasis is offered which consists of 30 semester hours includ- ing required and elective geography as well as a course in soil science. Two minors must also be taken, with one being either biology, chemistry, physics or mathematics. The cultural geography emphasis requires 31 semester hours chosen from a variety of regional and topical geography courses. A minor a social science, either economics, history, political science, psychology or sociology. The final geography emphasis, park sen- ice, includes a core of eight geography courses plus two courses which the indi- vidual student selects. Students must also take related courses from other departments including criminal justice, economics, polit- ical science, agriculture, biology, industrial studies and health, physical education, rec- reation and safety. A minor in geography is also available. For the geology major, either a Bachelor of Arts or a Bachelor of Science degree may be earned, with two emphases offered. The earth science emphasis requires 30 semester hours to be determined by whether or not the student desires to lie- come a teacher or seek a post as a geological tehenician. The technical curriculum in- cludes the requirements that one minor be taken in chemistry. The certification cur- riculum includes a minor in secondary edu- cation. The geology emphasis is for students who desire a career as a professional geologist or who plan to do graduate work in geology. A more rigorous program than earth science, the emphasis requires considerable work in mathematics, chemistry, biology and physics in addition to 31 hours of geology. Atten- dance at a summer field camp is strongly recommended. A minor in geology earth science is also offered. A major is social science is also offered which consists of 18 hours in one social sci- ence field plus six hours in each of the other four. Students will select from economics, geography (cultural emphasis), history, political science and sociology. A major- minor combination is also possible. A number of summer trips to various foreign countries are also offered by the de- partment. These field courses designed to provide insight to a selected foreign culture and are conducted at a minimal cost to the student. According to department literature, Members of the Department of Geography and Geology are dedicated to providing each of their students with personal attention needed depending on their individual goals and backgrounds. ... The department is especially proud of the on-campus reputa- tion they have for outstanding instruction and for a close-knit relationship with stu- dents.

The music industry ranks among the ten largest industries in our nation and provides job opportunities for a wide range of talented and trained musicians in a variety of musical fields. The Department of Music at MTSU has facultv members with diverse training and backgrounds, modem well-equipped facilities and a variety of program options. Students majoring in music begin study immediately upon entering the university and continue it for all four undergraduate vears. In addition to music, during the first two vears the student receives instruction in gen- eral studies covering the major fields of human learning and ideas. The Music Department offers the Bachelor of Music degree with emphases in instrumental music for those wishing to be- come instrumental teachers; certification in school music for those wishing to become choral or general music teachers; voice per- formance for those wishing to teach voice; instrumental performance; music industry for those wishing to enter the music indus- try; and theory-composition for those wish- ing to become composers or arrangers.

The programs provided by the depart- ment are designed to give students a Firm academic foundation of of a traditional na- ture combined with applied and practical training and experience through field work, internships, laboratory work and the compi- lation and interpretation of data. Another plus for the department is its geographical proximity to such political re- sources as the Tennessee State Capital and several federal agencies located in Nashville. Extensive contacts between the depart- ment and government officials through in- tership programs and graduates in public administration have facilitated student re- search, field trips and employment of graduates. Other than the Bachelor of Science ( B.S. ) degree in political science, the department offers a separate major in international rela- tions. The Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) degree attracts students who are interested in careers in government, military service or in business with international aspects and those who want a broad, liberal education. To earn ' out the varied programs of the department, facilities convenient to students and faculty are available. A reading room with helpful material is located within the main office complex, while classrooms are on the same floor as the offices in Peck Hall. Ok, get this down in writing. Dr. lack Turner, political science professor, deftly lectures his students as to the nature of the ghastly beast in the far right comer behind Philosophy The Department of Philosophy at MTSU offers courses intended to acquaint students with philosophical methods, systems and problems, as well as supply a philosophical background for graduate study in philosophy or related areas.

The combination of solid classwork plus actual doing gives students the skill and con- fidence essential for a productive career. Students may earn either a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree. The emphasis in speech communication is an exciting and challenging study program which provides students with marketable skills.

The emphasis in theatre offers a sound background in theatre as well as practical experience for the undergraduate student. The curriculum is planned to provide a back- ground for an intelligent appreciation of the drama, training in interpretation and experi- ence in the presentation of plays. The emphasis in speech-language and hearing provides training for a career in the rehabilitation of the more than 1 (),()( )(),()()() communication-handicapped children and adults in the United States. The range of courses provides the therapist with the working tools of the field, and the Univer- sity ' s Speech-Language and Hearing Clinic provides the site for practical experiences. The Speech and Theatre department also offers extracurricular activities through the Forensics Program, the University Theatre and the Honors Program. Swallowed by the cracks.

Organizations 135 Tau Omicron HONOR Tau Omicron was established on the MTSU campus in the fall of 1930 to satisfy a need for an honorary society for young women. The purpose of the society is to bring into close fellowship a group of the brightest stu- dents for mutual help, both to each other and to the college, to promote scholarships, and to uphold the standards and ideas of this institution of learning. The insignia is a papyrus scroll, on which the letters T.O. shall be inscribed. The flower is a pink carnation and the colors are pink and white. Membership requirements call for a minimum of sixty hours of credit and an earned cumulative gpa of 3.2 or above. Each spring semester Tau Omicron pro- duces a campus wide musical competition called All-Sing. All organizations are encour- aged to participate and prove their musical talent. Aside from All-Sing, most of our activities are community service projects. In the past we have prepared care packages for the Rutherford County Nursing Home, tutored handicapped students at MTSU, sponsored a number of underprivileged children at Christmas and Easter, conducted a clothes drive for the battered women ' s shelter and arranged an interview job hunt workshop.

MurfreesboiD, Tenn 371.32 198 Staff ■wrr Frank Conley It ' s been a long year for the Midlander staff. Budget cuts, low sales, lack of staff, and scheduling problems provided obstacles during the production of the book. Nevertheless, we prevailed and completed the book as evidenced by the product you are holding. The book was by no means a solo effort and I would like to take this time to to thank the people who dedi- cated their time and effort to getting the book out. Tanja, who stuck it out even when it seemed like we were never going to the book done, holding down the fort while I was gone, and taking on the big projects in the book and seeing that they got done. Without vour help this book would not have gotten done. Frank for taking all those pictures even when vou didn ' t want to. When the photo staff evaporated, you were there to see that we had the pictures we needed. Your help was also essential to the completion of the book and your dedication to seeing that it got done was invaluable. I ' ll never forget that. Wayne and Maria Cartwright for the great photos and stories. Mark Brown for stepping in at the last minute to write stories and do whatever else you could to help the book get out. Sandra Bennie and Michael Johnson for the excellent photos and lor getting them done on such short notice. Kathy Slager, Ann Whitaker, Paige Cantrell, Kevin Portugal Spain and all of the student workers for vol- unteering to do the monotonous, but necessary work of typing in names and drawing layouts. And, of course, for anvone I forgot.
