Growth is a silent process, taking place beneath the surface. The campus is almost barren, the exceptions being the ever- greens, the year-round students going to summer school, faculty members to teach them, and administrators preparing for the next year. On the grounds, out-of-class activity is nonexistent and buildings stand forsaken, alone. 19 June 20 UNIVERSITY STORE summer is different, more casual Spring finals and graduation were over. Every- one packed and went av ay ... to travel, to work, or just home, except the skeleton of faculty and administration who had to stay and prepare. Occasionally a student who did not leave for the brief week between the academic spring and summer wandered through the campus. There was some life, a high school journalism institute, a homemakers ' convention, a state police meeting. The next week the campus was suddenly busy. Registration for the first summer session was the usual confusion although there weren ' t nearly as many people as expected. The frustration of closed classes was gone. Then came the time to buy books. It seemed a waste to spend so much on a book to use it such a little time, but with so few people around it was difficult to find one to borrow. The thirteenth of June classes began. Old friends appeared unexpectedly, to get those one or two classes out of the way. Everything was more casual in the summer. People were different, friendlier. Secretaries smiled more. Campus cops didn ' t give as many parking tickets. Sleeveless shifts and bermuda shorts were the standard uniform. The sub was being remodeled, so between classes everyone gathered in the Hubert Room or the cafeteria to have the morning infusion of coffee. Classes started at the early hour of 7:00. It really was too hot to walk back to the dorms or apartments off campus for a few hours. UPPER LEFT Casual, comfortable dress marks the campus.

CENTER The ordeal of book buying proves hard on the pocketbook and arms. 21 classes start; end too Professors really poured it on. Courses seemed to have barely gotten under way, and it was finals day. Grades were posted the next day. It had been so hard to stay caught up with the work. There was one quick weekend to go home to party. Most students partied or slept. Some went to watch the movie being filmed down by the river. Registration for the second session was not crowded at all. A good many left after the first. Back into the groove of reading three or four chapters a night. The pressure for better grades was on. There weren ' t so many parties, but as many dates, usually to the show with a group of friends and liquid refreshment. The campus was emptier, not many people around in the afternoons. Unless they had a lab, high temperatures kept them indoors. Milton Stu- dent Center looked forlorn. The sound of a lawn- mower was familiar. Everyone in sight was study- ing, hoping to do better this time. July 22 quickly FAR LEFT Chemistry Hall has steady bench warmers between classes.

The population, small as it was, left as soon as possible. It was very quiet. Those with jobs or no money to go elsewhere stayed. For the last month the campus was populated only by Hadley inhabitants, construction workers, and birds. Green exploded over the grounds in a final fling before fall drabs. The tower bells chimed In a silence broken only by hammer blows from the ever-present construction work. Then, almost sneakily, the campus began preparing itself for autumn. Truckloads of books, a few for stu- dents, and fall clothing styles trickled in. For a few days, NMSU hovered on the edge of the annual holo- caust. 24 LEFT The Journalism department is the only one to lose space during summer construction.

From the solitude of vacation time, the campus bursts with stu- dents, parents, faculty, and a myriad of others. Activity is frantic. Moving into dorms, registration, orientation, book buying, and first classes are crowded into a few days. After the first rush, there are intermittent flurries, like different plants emerging and blooming in riots of color, beanie red, new shoe camel, and notebook blue, the univer- sity has the sweating hard work of A-Day, the scampering freshman, and the corsages and cheers of Homecoming. 27 CS 9 fi ' football ' 67 nmsu opponen s 17 lamar tech 6 14 arlington 15 10 Utah state 9 31 north texas st 31 27 Wichita St 14 31 west texas st 10 48 louisiana tech 7 24 u.t.e.p 46 90 northern arizona 54 u.n.m 7 NMSU Football Roster 1.

Woodson, Athletic Director and Head Football Coach, left New Mex- ico State University in 1967, as one of the nation ' s winningest coaches . His overall win-loss record stood at 239-110- 20 for a span of 40 years. He will be on the coaching staff at Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas. The 1924 graduate from Baylor Univer- sity took over as football coach at NMSU in 1958. NMSU had not defeated their arch rival University of New Mexico since 1937 or neighbor foe Texas Western Col- lege since 1946. Woodson ' s 1958 team toppled TW and then beat UNM in 1959. If any phase of Woodson ' s game stood out above the others, it had to be on the offensive ledger. He is considered the genius in many circles because of his revolutionary offensive sets like the Wing-T, Space-T and Slot-T formations which he invented while at Hardin-Sim- mons. Another Woodson trademark has been national rushing champions— ten of them to be exact. His latest honor was awarded by the Football Writers ' Association for meri- torious service to college football . LEFT Leading the 1967 Aggie cheers on the football and basketball sidelines were Betty Warnke, Sheila Riddle, Mary Ann Rivera, Toni Reay, Barbara Bouvet, and Dana Castleberry. The sponsor for the group was Mrs. Pierce Hubbard. ABOVE Coach Woodson receives a plaque fo r his services to NMSU. 29 thirteenth home victory starts winning season Football season started September 1 6, with the thirteenth straight home victory when the Aggies defeated Lamar Tech 17-6. Statistically, NMSU led Lamar Tech both in passing and rushing. Out- standing fullback Doug Dalton carried the ball 16 times for 105 yards. The Aggies fell on September 23 to Arlington on the Rebels ' field by a score of 15-14. They led by a touchdown with four minutes remaining in the game until the Rebels recovered a fumbled punt on the NMSU 24 yard line. Arlington capital- ized on quarterback Mike Baylor ' s passing for the score. Going for broke, the Rebel squad made the two-point conversion on a deflected pass. mrr rr 30 TOP Aggie defenders Bob Severini (30), Roy Gercia (42), and Dwane Schaars (60) bottle up a Northern Arizona back.

The combination of Olivas and Carroll late in the final quarter brought the North Texas State game to a 31-31 tie. The Oc- tober 7 game ended the home winning streak at fourteen. The Aggie half-time lead was broken and passed by Eagle intercep- tions. On October 14, Wichita State led ' the Aggies 7-0 at half-time. Second half action saw the Aggies score four touchdowns and hold the host team to one. With the running of Dalton and passing of Olivas the Aggies pulled the game out 27-14. In defeating Louisiana Tech 48-7 on Oc- tober 28, Aggie quarterback Sal Olivas broke Charley Johnson ' s passing mark for most yards gained in a single game when he passed for 361 yards. A polished passing attack, led by quar- terback Dawson and end Wallace, and the overall experience of the University of Texas at El Paso were enough to defeat the Aggies 24-26 in the Sun Bowl on November 4. Wmi ' 34 aggies reset record marks When the Aggies defeated Northern Arizona University 90-0 on November 14, the teann broke the school record for the highest score ever of the Woodson Era . A! Gonzales broke the con- versions-after-touchdown record by booting 12 extra points. End Howard Taylor broke the season pass-receiving mark previously held by Hartwell Menefee by catching five for a total of 43 passes for the year.

He was named to a quarterback position for the North in the Blue-Gray football game. While at NAASU Olivas broke or tied eleven different school records. He signed as a free agent with the Dallas Cowboys. Mike Carroll, noted kickoff-return performer, signed a pro contract with the Oakland Raiders. He caught 32 passes for 771 yards for an average yards-per-catch of 24. Carroll and Olivas also set the longest pass-run-play of 80 yards. Joe Schmiesing, middle linebacker and transfer, played for the Aggies one year. He was the team ' s second leading tackier behind Kelly Olive for 88 tackles. Schmiesing signed with the St. Louis Cardinals. Doug Dalton was named the year ' s Most Outstanding Aggie Athlete at the annual Spring Awards Dinner. Dalton ranked among the top five rushers in the nation. He aver- aged almost six yards per carry and almost 1,000 yards overall despite NMSU ' s predominant passing attack. Harold Gargus, a three-year-letterman, was a defensive standout and third in tackles with 69. The individual players who broke records and whose names appeared in print most often owed much to the ones who block, tackle and executed the plays and drives that win games. These individuals were rarely noticed if ever recognized. To these playe rs went the squad ' s and the students ' thanks for their vital efforts. 37 FAR RIGHT As usual registration is quiet and well organized.

September beginning bustles with enthusiasm The morning of the fifteenth was quiet. By evening a small bustle of activity was felt. The residence halls were open and a few eager stu- dents had returned. September 18, things really began to hum. This was the beginning of fresh- man orientation and registration. Most students had returned. Some had a fading tan as a telltale sign of that last summer holiday. All had the re- newed enthusiasm typical of the beginning of each semester. This semester will be different. I ' ll stay caught up with my subjects and make better grades! Student activities got into swing right away- even before classes— with the Red Beanie Ball. This is the first chance for freshmen to get to know each other and the upperclassmen at a social function. Here new friends are made that last throughout college and life. Classes started the following day and over- night they became a way of life. 39 During the following week the freshmen found themselves guests at various functions. First was the President ' s Reception. This annual social event, held by President Roger B. Corbett, was not only for new students and fac- ulty, but involved most students. Entertainment at the reception was presented by Carlos Mon- toya, classical guitarist. The next morning began A Day. This day wa s presented by the upperclass- men for the benefit and educa- tion of freshmen. The frosh were given an opportunity to dis- play their artistic talents by weed- ing and white-washing the A on A-A ountain. They learned the Aggie spirit song and were trained to survive under duress. A tug-of-war on Miller Field de- termined that the freshmen would not have to wait until Homecoming to lose their inferior status. A dance ended the long day and beanies became mem- oirs. freshmen are hosted i ■ 1 m © o ; ' :% ,o- % i FAR LEFT Carlos Montoya entertained with his classical guitar at the President ' s reception.

The day also opened the International Seminar on Tourism. The first of the Lyceum series presented come- dian Dick Gregory. A potent force behind the civil rights movement and a regular picketer, Gregory amused the audience with anecdotes stemming from his life and the national scene. When a wave of fires swept through Las Cruces toward the end of the month, N.MSU also found itself a victim. One of the haybarns belonging to the College of Agriculture and Home Economics burned to the ground after some children tried to play barbecue . 43 homecoming leaves memories Friday night, October 21,. the bonfire began the weekend fes- tivities of Homecoming 1967. The fire, built by the freshmen, was lighted north of Fraternity Row. A large crowd was on hand as the cheerleaders. El Guillo, and his Bandidos provided spirit for the occasion. Following the bonfire, the Homecoming Court was announced at a dance held at the tennis courts. Dodi Huston was elected queen with Dorinda Montoya and Smoky Glass serving as her attendants. Saturday morning the Aggie Alumni Association held an 8 a.m. Eye Opener Breakfast for members of the senior class and the Aggie alumni. The breakfast was held to acquaint the future alumni with the functions of the AAA. The same afternoon a stu- dent-alumni barbecue was held at Miller Field. The annual Alumni Banquet, held prior to the game, high lighted the day ' s activities for the alumni. During the banquet the James F. Cole Memorial Award, presented to outstanding alumni, was awarded to John M. McGurn and John Henry Campbell. John W. Clark, professor of civil engineering, was also presented an award for the recognition that his research has brought NMSU. Saturday afternoon 18 floats built by numerous campus organi- zations and carrying out the theme of Metropolises of the World, paraded past the judges ' stand in downtown Las Cruces. Lambda Chi Alpha, for the sixth consecutive year, captured first place with their float, Atlantis . The engineers won second place with their theme, London .

Judges for the event were Royce Washburn and Yunk Griffin. Dickie Beal added comedy as the rodeo clown. Seven events and the Wilson stock provided competition for the girls as well as men. Top hon- ors in the men ' s divisions were taken by Curt Kell- ing in bareback riding, Ron Moore on a saddle bronc, Joe Croom in tie-down-calf-roping, Sammy Teel in ribbon roping, Larry Cohorn on steer wres- tling, and Tom Salmon in bull riding.

Another October event was the annual Angel Flight-Caper football game. This year the final score was: Angels 21, Ca- pers 7. Finally, the fierce masks and giggles of children at doors on and off campus brought nostalgia to students on Hallow- een. 51 — I r K- ag day features competition Ag Day festivities began early Saturday morn- ing, November 4, as the seventh annual cele- bration opened at NMSU. Sponsored by the College of Agriculture and Home Economics, various organizations presented exhibits to the public to acquaint them with the functions and contributions of agriculture and home economics to people in today ' s world. Agronomy and Horticulture won first place for their exhibit, one of several exemplifying the theme, The World of Modern Agriculture and Home Economics. A luncheon for visiting students from the ag- ricultural college in Juarez was held at the Mis- sion Inn, hosted by Dean Philip Leyendecker and Ag Council members. A tour of Las Cruces was conducted for the guests. A greased pig contest, fish-catching, a wheel- barrow race, and corn-shelling were included in the afternoon ' s competitive events. Competition ended with the diapering of a calf. Block and Bridle club was awarded the traveling trophy for the highest number of points in the contests. Climaxing Ag Day was the Aggie Bawl, at which Lynne Harmon, sponsored by the Wildlife Club, was crowned queen by Dean Leyendecker. 52 november FAR LEFT The Wildlife department sponsored a Know Your New Mexico Wildlife exhibit outside the Ag building.

November 10 was the third program of the fall Lyceum. The guest speaker was David Schoenbrun, well- known journalist and foreign correspondent. He spoke to the students about the Viet Nam War-how the United States got involved and how it should get out. Many parents visited the school on Parent ' s Day, Novem- ber 11. Sponsored by ASNMSU, Parent ' s Day afforded the students ' parents the opportunity to talk with the faculty and administration. In conjunction with Armistice Day, parents of former Aggie students who gave their lives in the battles of World War II, Korean War, or the Viet Nam conflict were honored. Nocturnal visitors to the campus painted a sidewalk in psychedelic patterns. The next morning student reac- tions were varied and there were many guesses as to who donit. The supposedly dead Aggie spirit arose at a pep rally later in the month. Pep rallies were frequent as fans and cheerleaders incited NMSU teams to greater victories. 54 LEFT The Aggie spirit returns from the dead at a pep rally held by cheerleaders.

Designer ' s concept of the three million dollar Corbett Center. i - ' 56 students help blueprint new corbett center New Mexico State University ' s three million dollar Cor- bett Center will open in the fall of 1968. Both directly and indirectly the New Mexico State University students have helped to plan their new student center. Consulting directly with Mr. Campbell, Milton Student Center Program Director, and the cafeteria and bookstore Mr. Rasmussen, Assistant Director of Food Service takes time out for a cup of coffee. staffs, the students have aided extensively in planning the construction of the snack bar, cafeteria, ballroom, bookstore, and decor of student offices. Indirectly, every student at New Mexico State University has taken part in the planning of the new complex. The bookstore has kept records of the supplies students use and prefer. Extensive studies of phone calls made from Milton Student Center has determined the number of phones installed in the new Corbett Center. Likewise, stud- ies were also made on restroom facilities and their loca- tion. A student center is one of the most highly complex and specialized kind of building. It provides special services which meet students daily heeds: food services; recreation areas; bookstore; and, student government activities. The key to an efficient student center is flexibility In order to give maximum use, the ballroom was designed as a 160 foot, 6 inch long by 72 foot, 6 inch wide room with partitions which separate it into three equally divided rooms. One of the advantages of this highly flexible ball- room is that a Stomp Dance and a Cat Dance can be held simultaneously in two of the rooms while preparations are made for a banquet or dinner in the third. La Casa del Guillo, the snack bar, was especially con- structed to fit student needs. As a social center, a cozy, warm atmosphere requirement was solved by erecting a fireplace with booths, tables, and chairs encircling it. One of the luxurious assets is a mer u dining room overlooking the scenic view of the Organ Mountains. It is erected with the idea that it is the living room or the hearthstone of the college. It provides for the services, conveniences, and amenities that the members of the college family need in their daily life on campus, and for getting to know and understand one another through informal association outside the classroom. 57 larkins successfully defend championship The Original Larkins, defending Intramural Touch Foot- ball Champions, made it two years in a row by de- feating A.S.C.E. in Memorial Stadium The Larkins romped over the Engineers 36-0.

There is the quiet of summer, the steady growth of learning personalities, and friend- ships. Silent times come at Thanksgiving and Christmas, when all have left for other places, or celebrate quietly in their homes near school. Before finals there is another sjlent time of intense study and anxiety. It is similar to the summertime period of dusty, dark green heat, when nature concentrates on growing, making the most progress in the small time left. 61 henson leads aggies through record year When Coach Lou Henson came to NMSU from Hardin-Simmons in 1967, he began rebuilding a perennially losing basketball team. In two years he brought NMSU not only winning seasons, but two NCAA playoffs. Writers and sport fans across the nation have begun to watch NAASU and respect the position the Aggies have at- tained in college ball. This year ' s squad, which boasted a 23-6 season, had many outstanding and dependable players. Senior Ernie Turner set the pace for the Aggies and then maintained it. He completed his eligibil- ity at mid-term but continued to support and sta- bilize Aggie action from the bench second se- mester. Senior guard Robert Evans led the team in assists and was the team ' s outstanding de- fensive man. Senior Paul Landis called and set up most plays. Sophomore Hardy Murphy is a prom- ising starter in that position for next season. Richard Collins, a 6-6 forward, was a big asset under the basket as the second leading rebounder. Sophomore Jim Collins gained national recog- ntion as a clutch player in pulling several games out for the Aggies. He was a crowd pleaser with dazzling ball control. Sophomore John Burgess showed improvement at his forward position in rebounding and defense. Sophomore center Sam Lacey was the Aggie high scorer and leading rebounder.

The game was played in the Lobo Snake Pit in Albuquerque, it went into the final seven seconds tied 71-71. A foul sent Lobo Gregg Howard to the free throw line. Howard made the first of a 1-1 and missed the second shot. The Aggies rebounded and Jim Collins brought the ball up court. As he went up for the lay-up the horn sounded, ending the contest with the ball squirming off the rim. Though there were 23 fouls on the Aggies and 21 on the Lobos, no one was pulled out of the game. Hardin-Simmons upset the Aggies 91-89 in their final game of the regular season. The Aggies were unable to pull the game out after two overtime periods.

Weber State paralleled the Aggies in most categories and both teams boasted a 21-5 record. The Aggie 68-67 win over Weber State came after deliberate ball control that saw several Wildcats starters foul out or in foul trouble. Aggie determina- tion for the win was summed up by Sam Lacey, I wanted a chance to play against Alcindor and UCLA, and Weber State was in the way. The game against the Big Sky Conference champions was played in Salt Lake City, Utah. The Aggies met UCLA in the Lobo Sports Arena in Albuquerque. UCLA was held to 40% from the field and only out-rebounded the Aggies 41-35. The difference ' = = in the cold shooting of NMSU. The Aggies, who had an average of 43% on field goals going into the game, shot a losing 33% against the Bruins. Most decisive was the Aggies ' 44% from the free throw line, compared to their usual 75%. The Aggies were the only team to come clos to the Bruins ' successful drive to the NCAA champion- ship.

Boasting the services of five scholarship boys with high cre- dentials, the freshman team was definite proof of the depth of the ' Tou Henson Era at NMSU. Jeff Smith, a 6 ' 8 ' All-American, was considered one of the best prospects ever to attend NMSU and was the best of- fensive big man in the program. Chito Reyes led the scoring his senior year at Los Angeles and was a definite asset at his forward position. Varsity guards received help from Herb Bowen who led the team in scoring, and the quarterback of the team, guard Walt Tague. Mike Banks, a Santa Fe man, was considered the finest prepster in the state and was also a tough rebounder despite his 6 ' 3 height. The remainder of the squad was made up of student walk-ins. Tops among them were Marty Smith and Robert Hard- ing. 68 FAR LEFT The freshman squad boasts the talents of Robert Bryant, Walt Tague, Fred Quimby, Mike Banks, Robert Hard- ing, Jeff Smith, Bill Harvey, Coach Ed Murphy, Marty Smith, Bob Curtis, Chito Reyes, Joe Cabarrus, Herb Bowen, and Paul levell.

Cram was the word of action for a large percentage of unprepared students. Hours spent in the Sub and at the river seemed so few until many counted back on where all the time could have gone. Finals week was a quiet one of unbearable nervousness, deadly anticipation, and the realization of a long-sought-after dream for January graduates. finals semester 83 february February is a month of hearts and flowers; at NMSU it was this plus a month of dances, big dates, and late hours.

The married students, who made up 35 per cent of the school ' s enrollment in the 1967-68 school year, had complications from finding adequate studying hours to a husband ' s scorning for money spent on nylons. A large percentage of campus wives worked during the past year. According to the figures, 75 per cent of the wives did most of the supporting. Husbands worked an average of 20-25 hours per week. This strain was probably the rea- son why few husbands and wives be- longed to fraternities or sororities; al- though sometimes, the husbands be- longed to a club of their major. The Department of Married Students Housing cared for less than one third of married students. Within the three hous- ing complexes, 471 residents were quite comfortable last year. Most appealing to the couples were rent, location, and main- tenance.

The trees on cam- pus that suddenly become bright and active are Easter vacation, Engineers ' Day, Greek Week, and Spring Rodeo. Then, as the leaves fall on the first day of winter after the growing season is over, so the campus empties when commencement ends and the students have fulfilled their year of growth through education and relationships between themselves. 89 trackmen lack depth Aggie Track Coach Art Mor- gan had only eleven men on his team. With no depth each athlete many times had to perform in three or more events. Pacing the team this year was Gerald Conley. A Las Cruces boy, Conley rated among the nation ' s best In the 440-yard run and the 440-yard hurdles. On most occa- sions he also had to perform in the 220-yard dash and the 440- yard relays.

Studying becomes a real chore. Just as at other colleges across the country, for a while, students are students in name only. For a brief time, when the leaves start growing and the air smells fresh, student interest switches from textbooks and tests to outdoor sports, the opposite sex, and other nonacademic pursuits. It is during this short natural flight from reality that some of the best dreams are dreamed and some of the happiest days are spent. 101 This year ' s foreign student popula- tion came from forty-six countries. The largest representation was from India. This was followed closely by students from Mexico and China. Most foreign students majored in agriculture, engineering, or science. Depending on their sponsorship, they must go to school twelve months a year or else go to work part of the time.

This was the last time that commencement exercises were to be held outdoors in the stadium. In the future they will be held in the Pan American Field House. For the graduates the day was one of mixed feelings, happiness because of a goal attained and sadness because some college friends will not be seen again. Graduation marks the end of college, but the beginning of a whole new way of life. Now jobs and responsibilities face the graduate as he leaves to take his place in the world. 675 graduate 117 people Campus expansion and growth begin With the people in Hadley Hall and other small offices scattered on the university grounds. These are the people who look to the future, plan for it, and put these plans into action. Their concept for a larger school in all respects began taking tangible form with t he first intermittent staccato of hammer blows and wavering growls of con- crete mixers. Despite the growing pains of large numbers, the administrative staff strives to maintain personal contact with each stu- dent, from entering freshman to the gradu- ate student receiving his doctorate. 119 In August, 1955, when Dr. Roger B. Corbett became NMSU ' s president, the total physical value of State was $5 million, while construction devel- opments this year alone totaled eleven million. In his 13 years as president, the campus itself has grown to be one of the largest in the world, with 6250 acres plus various University-owned lands throughout the state such as re- search stations and branch colleges. Academically, 65 per cent of the University ' s staff now have Ph.D.s and the curriculum has broadened, increas- ing the number of Ph.D.s offered. The setting of policies under which the University operates concerned the Board of Regents in 1967-68. Included in their work was the confirmation of the continuation of mandatory ROTC, reviewing the progress on the con- struction of new buildings, approval of an increase of fees for the addition to Health Service, adopting the budget, and considering proposals for new de- gree programs.

O ' Donnell, for- mer senior vice-president, who retired at the end of the 1967-68 year. The former secondary school teacher and principal held a com- plex yet varied job while senior vice-president. Among his many duties were to serve as chief administrative officer in the ab- sence of the President, legisla- tive coordinator, chairman of the Faculty Senate, and budget co- ordinator. He was also Dean of Students at ENMU and NMSU, professor of education adminis- tration at NAASU, and executive secretary of the New Mexico Edu- cation Association from 1953-56. For the past eleven years, Mr. O ' Donnell has held the position of Senior Vice-President. He plans to relax in Las Cruces and to make some short trips after the end of the school year, but he said firm- ly, I ' ll always have to be close by where I can follow the Ag- gies. 121 - S 2 -: i3 - administration The position of vice-president of development was established by President Corbett last Septem- ber. The position itself was not only new but the Vice-President of Development, Paul Rader, was also new to NMSU. Mr. Rader sought to find financial support for NMSU at a national level through national philan- thropies, federal support, and individual help. He looked at every department of the University and its potentials to find the many things which add together to put the school on the national map. Mr. Rader talked in public relations terms— of how NMSU is unique in its own way and why it deserves national support. The formation of a new athletic association was one of the major projects handled by Carl R. Hall, Assistant to the President and Faculty Representative to the National Collegiate Athletic Association. If successful, it will have many values to our university, stated Mr. Hall. Addi- tional prestige and publicity will be given and recognition will provide greater incentive to ath- letes who participate. As one of President Corbett ' s two assistants, Edmund Engel assessed the possibilities of re- furnishing existing academic buildings at NMSU, the need for expansion, and the necessity of building new quarters for the various departments. ABOVE Kay Hafen, Vice-President of Finance double checks budget figures. LOWER RIGHT Vice-President of Develop- ment, Paul Rader points out the Pan. American highway in relation to NMSU. UPPER RIGHT Carl Hall, Assistant to the President gazes through the beams in the new activities build- ing. FAR UPPER RIGHT Studying maps of an expanding NMSU is Edmund Engel, Assistant to the President. BELOW Vice-President of Student Affairs, Philip S. Ambrose, works closely with the Student and Faculty Senates. 122 By 1977, according to Engel, 11,322 students should be enrolled at NMSU. Said Engel, If the present increase in enrollment continues over the next ten years, then the estimated 255,000 square feet of footage required by 1977 for expansion of academic buildings and research facilities will be inadequate. For the first time at NMSU, in 1967-68, stu- dents were members of the Faculty Senate. Ac- cording to Vice-President of Student Affairs, Philip S. Ambrose, this enabled the Student Senate and Faculty Senate Committees to work together to involve students more in recommending policies. Responsible for all the finances of NMSU was Kay R. Hafen, Vice-President of Finance. He pre- pared the school ' s budget; and, as he put it, kept track of the money. 123 ' .5fc. Vice-President of Research, Dr. Richard H. Dun- can, was responsible for the Engineering Experi- ment Station, the Research Center, the Physical Science Laboratory, and the Water Resources Re- search Institute, which is the state-wide center for water research. The Graduate Study Program was a new addi- tion to P.S.L., directed by Harry A. Posner. It was a work-study arrangement for students work- ing towards advanced degrees in engineering and the physical sciences. Creation of a non-degree program at NMSU ' s branch colleges has been the major project con- ducted in 1967-68 by Dr. Burns Young, Director of Off-Campus Instruction. Under the provisions of the new program, students not desiring a degree might take courses to earn college credit for personal development or professional ad- vancement. The 1 1 per cent increase in enrollment from the 1966-67 year could be partially credited to George Dennard, Director of Admissions. Keeping pace with the fast-changing world and informing and advising students about college opportunities as they change were his jobs. Next year the Corbett Center will be used for registration. Dr. Robert Leestamper, Registrar said that the flow for registration should be much smoother than in previous years. Business Manager, George W. Roberts report- ed that in conjunction with the Computer Center, his office last year was in the process of re- vising the payroll system to receive more infor- mation and to receive it faster.

Mr. Sears is also liaison officer be- tween the Las Cruces community and the foreign students, the majority of which are from India with Mexican students numbering second. During the past four years, the NMSU Placement Service, directed by Alex San- chez, has tripled the number of compan- ies which send representatives to inter- view graduating students. A new pro- gram. Career Counseling, which assists the individual in planning his career ac- cording to recent information on job op- portunities, has been activated. The Com- puter Center is also being used more in connection with the placement office to give placement employees more time to spend with the students. As Dean of Men, Larry O. Stockton directs the freshman orientation program besides handling the affairs of men stu- dents and whatever problems they may have. In 1967-68 an additional orienta- tion program in the summer was estab- lished to give students the opportunity to register before the regular registration period. Concerned with all women on the cam- pus is Martha Hall, Dean of Women. The office of the dean of women has, in re- cent years, and is continually, cutting down the number of rules women stu- dents must follow. According to Dean Hall, the decrease in rules is warranted because, When women come to NMSU I accept them as being mature adults, and I assume that they ' re fairly responsible and should be given as much responsi- bility as they can take care of.

Tarlowski and Senior Associate Dr. Walker H. Powe planned during the 1967- 68 year for the new services which would be available to students the next fall. Twenty-four hour care with a staff mem- ber always on duty was to be added. The staff itself would have a 7 to 22 member increase. Also added to the Health Service would be a 1 6-bed in- firmary converted from part of Regents Row Residence Center. The new Garcia dorm, which can hold 900 students, is the Housing Department ' s addition to the new buildings on campus. Director of Housing, William Grabbs re- ported that in its first year of occupancy this new dorm was filled on the men ' s side and was 75-80 per cent filled on the women ' s side. It was expected that Gar- cia, which consisted of four patios, would be completely filled in 1968-69. The Physical Plant, headed by Fred A. Day, worked as the go-between of archi- tects and builders of the six major build- ings under construction. They were the Business Administration building, the Teacher Education building, physics addi- tion, chemistry addition, Corbett Center, and the activities building. Director of Information Services, David Rodwell, observed firsthand that, with the expansion of the University, the volume of worthy press material was also grow- ing. The dissemination of news was main- ly regional, but Rodwell believed that, with the speed at which State and its programs were developing, the dissemi- nation would soon become national. 128 I UPPER LEFT Dr. Hal Powe, Health Service Senior Associate, prepares to administer a pre- scription to Dr. Carl Tarlowski, Director.

Van Pelt. The Academic Assistance Program was established to start libraries in each residence center. Many new phases will be added to the food service with construction of Corbett Center, and the book store will double in size. In a year at NAASU, James Campbell helped plan the Pan American Center and the Corbett Activities Center. He designed the staging for both buildings. Before coming to NAASU he was a professional In the field of music, having com- posed songs which have been published and recorded. 130 LEFT Chancy D.

The importance of the Guidance Center was reflected in the hiring of one more counselor this year to help the two other full-time coun- selors and the four graduate assistants, headed by Dr. Joseph Liggitt. Captain of the University Poice, Samuel Jen- nings, noted that the increase from 6,000 to 7,000 cars on campus in 1966 to 1967 caused more and bigger problems for the force. John Cox, Director of Milton Student Center, welcomed Corbett Center and the Pan-American Center as revitalizing forces on the campus. One of Corbett Center ' s highlights will be the Student Activities Complex in which student government, publications and organizations will have access to modern facilities and plenty of space. It will also boast a huge multi-purpose ballroom. The Center also will offer a snack bar displaying a sunken fireplace and a menu restaurant featuring waitresses serving noon and evening meals. The Pan American Center, scheduled for com- pletion by the 1968-69 basketball season, will house intercollegiate athletic events and programs of concert and theatrical nature and will seat over 12,000 basketball enthusiasts. The Alumni Association, headed by Gene H. Elliot, supported the adoption of the new NMSU symbol. It is built around a theme of threes. It symbolizes that, as a land-grant institution, NMSU pursues education, research, and service. The school is built upon three cultures, Indian, Latin American, and Anglo. Interstate 10, or the Pan- American Highway, is also shown on the symbol as a triangle around NMSU. 131 colleges M %. Today ' s students do not look like students of previous years. They wear short skirts, long hair. But, beneath the facade, they are thinkers and doers. It is the job of the faculty of the colleges to work them and their new- ness in with new buildings, teaching tech- niques, or faculty members. ■ ?% ' ' ■■ '  ■. w ma:. 1 133 agriculture and home economics The College of Agriculture and Home Economics has met the demands of mod- ern times and increasing enrollment with many improvements. This year the academic senate approved the Ph.D. programs in Animal Science and Agronomy. This demonstrated the growth of interest and importance of these areas. A new program in the college was the Agriculture Institute. This two-year train- ing program offered instruction in Agri- culture machinery and mechanics. The rapid expansion of the institute was proof of its pressing need in the ag program. The newest addition of the college is the warm water fish hatchery located just below Elephant Butte. This is being used mainly by the Wildlife department for teaching and research. 134 ABOVE Dean Philip Leyendecker pauses to look at Herefords used in animal studies In his college.

This com- mittee composed of the faculty, attempt- ed to evaluate every course in the college. To accomplish this they had on file a syllabus of each course and in most cases, samples of the tests used. This group was constantly revising the curriculum to im- prove it. For the first time, some teach- ers were evaluated by their students. By plotting profiles from these evaluation forms the committee was able to make other forms of improvements. If this is successful, this type of student evaluation will become more widely used through- out the college. Due to its large size, the Ag and Home Ec college is unique in its close faculty and student relationship. This is stimulat- ed each spring through the selection of the outstanding student and faculty mem- bers on Awards Day. ag and home ec N 136 oa !  o c .• I • ' , V v e w-r. ,j fT ' '  rw •■v ' i ■ ' .. - ABOVE Tomatoes and poinsettias growing at the same time in a horticulture greenhouse are tended by Don Scoggin.

Concerned by the relatively lov number of graduates, they developed a program geared espec- ially to freshman motivation. In the pro- gram advisors could, in some cases, juggle the usual freshman curriculum so that students took several introductory agriculture courses their first year, pick- ing up the required basics, such as chem- istry, and English, during the following years. The plan served two main pur- poses. Through it freshmen learned how to study for college courses while taking courses which interest them most, and at the same time learned why they would need the other subject areas. In 1967-68 the plan showed definite results, and Dean Phillip Leyendecker felt it will be used often to build more graduates. € 138 ABOVE A fish hatchery near Elephant Butte is a new addition to the College of Agriculture and Home Ec.

LEFT Performing an hysterectomy on a sheep is Dr. Jack Ruttle. 139 New spaces for research, new depart- ments, national grants, and new teaching techniques are some of the many ways that the College of Arts and Sciences changed in 1967-68. As part of the new face of the college, a million dollar addition was being added to the physics department. This will triple the space for research. For the first time the psychology de- partment was made a part of the College of Arts and Sciences instead of the Col- lege of Education. The change involved a new department head and a new idea for psychology lab. The new lab, engi- neering psychology, is aimed at making man more compatible with his environ- ment. The math department received a grant from the National Science Foundation to support its Christmas Symposium and another to support its summer institute. The music department received a Ford Foundation grant from the Music Educa- tors ' National Council because of its pro- gressive teaching methods. With it, an electric piano laboratory of 18 units was purchased. It was the first of its kind in the Southwest and a totally new way to teach piano to a class. Team teaching had a trial run in the biology department. By this method it was hoped that students would receive a broader background in introductory courses. Active responding, immediate confir- mation, self-pacing, and more supervision was tried in the French classes of the for- eign language department. If successful it will be expanded to include other lan- guages. The English department formed a new course by combining 101-102. The course, English III, was four hours of compre- hensive reading and writing. It included the new concept of a writing lab. The first Guggenheim ever awarded to a professor at NAASU was presented to Dr. Ralph Raift this year. Also a first here was a Distinguished Professor of Math- ematics, Dr. Reinhold Baer. The year marked Dr. Richard Barrett ' s last year as Dean of Arts and Sciences.

X The most talked-about change in the College of Education was the new education building. A bid was accepted in July 1967 for the con- struction of the William B. O ' Donnell Building. In September 1968, the building will be ready for occupancy. It will house the faculty and will have a closed circuit television so that activities going on in one part of the building can be observed in others. Other advantages of the new building include a laboratory for conducting research and a large classroom that will seat two hundred people. Another teaching aid has been brought into the college this year. It is a portable video tape setup. This will be a great aid to the beginning teacher. After students have practice-taught their classes, they can see an instant replay to discover what they did wrong. Fall of 1967 found the second group of the National Teacher Corps on campus. This federally subsidized program gives college graduates of other areas other than education a chance to enter the teaching profession. In the program, participants worked in teams of four, each man team having a master teacher to work with them. During the two year interval it involves, they take not only education courses, but also work in the public schools as interns. The co-op program went into its third year. There were approximate- ly 100 students benefiting from this program. Not only do co-ops benefit financially, but in the practical sense as well. They received valuable training in the classroom. education 153 CHILDREN LEARN WHAT THEY LIVE IF A CHILD LIVES WITH CRITICISM . HE LEARNS TO CONDEMN [% IF A CHILD LIVES WITH.

The school year 1967-68 was no exception. The mechanical engineering department partial- ly constructed a wind tunnel, capable of pro- ducing wind velocities up to ten times the speed of sound. This will aid in the research of high speed fluid mechanics. Meanwhile, the chemical engineers were concentrating their efforts on high temperature heat properties of plastic materials and the rate at which temperature rises. Improvement in the instruction in civil engi- neering was accomplished by combining courses. This was to help the student to obtain broader knowledge of his field. Agricultural engineering started incorporating the use of computers by undergraduates as a way to clarify some studies. Engineering technology completed its mobile lab- oratory which can be moved throughout the state to branch colleges. 157 engineering The past year marked the approval of a new graduate program in electrical engineering. It included utility manage- ment which is a private industry spon- sored program. One of the main reasons for the im- provements within the college was stu- dent participation. Students are natural- ly important to us, said Dr. Edward Thode, head of Cham. E. We try to in- volve them as much as possible.

Accreditation of new departmental graduate programs in all colleges was the biggest breakthrough of the year. A big- ger and better graduate program is grad- ually evolving through the development of increased research facilities and recog- nition given to this college in the form of grants. This enables graduates to work as assistants as they earn their degrees. 162 LEFT The job of coordinating the studies of graduate students at NMSU belongs to Dr. Merrell Thompson, Dean of the Gradu- ate School.

I groups Organized groups of students are what provide the extra-curricular life of the stu- dent. They bring in speakers, arrange dances set professional ideals, cheer sports teams, and hold off-campus activities— picnics, par- ties, kegs. They are the uniting force of students. The organizations bring people to- gether, give them goals; and applaud their successes.

The main event of this club is the annual Ag. Day celebration. Here each club has its own contest, display, and queen candidate. The queen is picked by popular vote by the Ag. students. The Ag. Day is closed with a western dance, at which time the queen is crowned. The Ag. and Home Ec. Council also made a visit to the Juarez School of Agriculture, and helped the School of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine at Asuncion, Paraguay build a new student union building. 168 ag econ club To begin the fall semester, the Agriculture Economics Club held a smoker for freshmen. The club later earned funds by having the concession at the rodeo and a popcorn stand at high school football games. Among other fall activities, they published a graduat- ing senior employment brochure, hosted the New Mexico Banker ' s Banquet, and the Economics Club Banquet. During the spring semester they initiated their activities with Ag Day, which was followed by hosting the Senior Breakfast. A spring picnic was held in May for members and their guests.

A wide-range intramural program and dances for the entire student body were arranged by the group. The club also co-sponsored the uni- versity ' s inter-collegiafe livestock, meats, and wool- judging teams in competition across the nation. Although the club is primarily for students inter- ested in animal science, membership and active par- ticipation is open to any student interested in good fellowship and education in the field of animal science.

NMSU was repre- sented by seventeen of the eighty chapter members. The chapter aids the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the New Mexico Game and Fish De- partment in programs by working on check sta- tions and assisting in census reports. During Wild- life Week, the club showed films to the public and contacted over 4,500 people. The Spring Banquet, highlight of the year, fea- tured a distinguished guest speaker and the pre- sentation of the Bighorn Sheep Award to the outstanding club member.

For the first time, monthly luncheons were held with President Corbett during which there was discussion of student problems. It was also the first time student leaders were invited to and took part in a meeting of the Board of Regents. The main issue of the meeting was mandatory ROTC. Another first was that students participated on Faculty Senate. This provided a direct voice of students in the formation of policy that affected them. Student leaders and faculty worked together in several committees of the faculty senate. They proposed policy changes such as the revision of the calendar, regulations on the use of uni- versity facilities, and changes in the grading system. The Faculty Senate appointments have provided a chance for student power to exist at NMSU. The student government also initiated a new spirit organization known as the ' Encantadores ' or enchanters. The girls ' drill team is to perform at football and basket- ball games in 1968-69. The organization should help to build spirit at NAASU. New officers for ASNMSU were elected in April with the largest percentage turnout yet at NMSU.

The year ' s constancy of progress was, however, more pertinent. An effective Student Rights Bill clarifying the Consti- tution passed in 1966-1967 was complet- ed. The Teacher and Course Evaluation Program, in which the students rate pro- fessors and courses, and the Student Dis- count Program, in which Las Cruces mer- chants-cooperated to give student dis- counts, were initiated. Choice ' 68, a national collegiate presidential primary in- volving over two million college students, was held on the New Mexico State Uni- versity campus under the auspices of Senator Ray Sandoval, Chairman of the Election and Membership Committee. The mandatory vs. voluntary aspects of ROTC training at NMSU were discussed, and a resolution was sent to the Board of Re- gents by the Senate. Other highlights in- cluded action directing dis-affiliation of NMSU from the Pacific Student Presidents ' Association; the completion of a Lower Courts Bill; the petitioning of student grievances to the NMSU administration; an effective orientation program for new- ly-elected senators; and the appropriation of a $107,000 budget for the 1968-69 school year. 183 associated women students The Road Not Taken was the theme of the annual AWS Women of Achievement Banquet on May 2. It cli- maxed a year of new events and activities for the group, including the Starlight Ball, the Christmas Happening, planned programs, selection of the AWS 10 Best Dressed Coeds, a Romp ' r Stomp dance, and election of officers for 1 968-69. Three of the new officers attended the Inter-Collegiate Association of Women Students ' Region I Convention at the University of California at Davis.

Bandido pledges once again proved able to the yearly task of fountain cleaning around the horseshoe. The group gave increased support to the Aggie ath- letic program and also hosted a Cheerleader ' s Appre- ciation Night after the last home football game. Throughout the year, the Bandidos worked closely with the Lyceum Committee and other groups in stu- dent government, helping to insure the successfulness of concerts and other events. To wrap up a year of fun and work, the group sponsored a Tintype Gallery booth at spring carnival. : li. r.-- ; 186 BOTTOM LEFT Athletic director lou Henson explains a fine point during Cheerleader Appreciation Night.

Emphasis on progress and growth included an increase in the size of the newspaper staff with the addition of an associate editor, regu- lar columnists, and an increased number of staff writers. With the larger staff to cover routine news, more editorial attention was directed toward the many facets of student and administrative life. Mandatory vs. volun- tary ROTC, civil rights, student rights, and student government were subject to editorial campaign throughout the year.

For years, the school ' s Physical Science Laboratory has employed students in fourteen jani- torial positions, and this year the crew decided to try their hands at school spirit. Huge signs at football and basketball games were one facet of the effort. For basketball season a huge wooden Aggie was constructed. Music and signs were supplied for several out-of-town games. Effort and imagination produced a home- coming float and a booth for Spring Car- nival. In other competition, the group spon- sored Dorinda Monfoya for Homecoming Queen, Janis Krivokapich for Sun Princess, and Carol White for Spring Carnival Queen. 1967-68 was a big party year, too, highlighted by the gala Spring Formal.

The Council was formed in the fall of 1967, just as construction began on the new Business Administration Building, scheduled for completion in the fall of 1969. Since its founding, the council had done much to improve communications in the college by working with business organizations as well as faculty members. The fund-raising project for this past year was the Bridge Marathon. The funds collected will be used to finance scholastic programs within the college and for en- tertainment during Business Week, cli- maxed by the Business Administration Junior-Senior Banquet. 200 mri ' m r Accounting Club 1.

The executive council of Patio III purchased a new rug for the lobby and installed an ice ma- chine. 219 wrc patio i Included in Patio I of the WRC during the regular year was the only honor dorm on the New Mexico State University campus. This section of the patio was for those upperclass girls who had at least a 2.2 over- all grade point average. Any woman who had com- pleted her sophomore year was eligible for this dorm. Despite these rules, there were two benefits, the privi- lege of attaining their own key to the dormitory and the leeway of one and a half extra hours past the posted curfew. During the calendar year Patio I was also involved with several social functions. One of the most important was the Christmas tree and door decorations of the patio itself, which won the first prize for the campus as a whole. Another was the spring party that was held on May 12. The festivity theme was Treasure Island. The patio was decorated to resemble the storybook land. Dinner and dancing were the featured events of the evening. WRC Patio I 1. Samia Hindi, Pres. 2.

The work on this program was begun in the summer to ensure each fresh- man girl a big sister from the many upperclass co-eds who participated as well as all the Spur members. These big sisters wrote letters during the summer to prospective freshman girls. They were also on hand to welcome these girls to NMSU and help with their problems and questions. Spurs promoted school spirit, supported the activities of the student body, fostered a spirit of loyalty and helpfulness among women, and up- held the traditions of the university. Other projects included reading to visually handicapped students, selling A books, a Founder ' s Day coffee for past Spurs, washing car windows before Christmas vacation, ushering at plays, working during night club night, and even assisting at an Aggie swim meet.

The largest project of the year was the second annual High School Invitational Drill Meet. Capers 1. Momilani Tio 2. Cynthia Carroll 3. Sharon Fishback 4. Lupita Enrlquez 5. J. E. Evans 6.

The course of in- struction included weapons, communications, srnall unit tactics, demolitions, rappelling, first aid, counterguerrilla operations, hand-to-hand combat, survival, land navigation, camouflage, field problems, and examinations. The Counterguerrillas participated in three daylight tac- tical exercises, four night tactical exercises, and three weekend maneuvers. Young S I.T.J. 2. J. H. 3. J. C. i. M. L, J. D. R. A. A. J. ,P.

Depue pershing rifles Company C, 17th Regiment, National So- ciety of Pershing Rifles, is an integral part of the ROTC program at New Mexico State. Since Pershing Rifles draws its membership from all three services, it is the only organi- zation within the structure of either the Mil- itary or Air Science Department which offers the opportunity for inter-service orientation and joint operation. The Pershing Rifles of NMSU presently num- bers 24 members. Their activities are wide and varied and executed with such a degree of proficiency that Co. C, 17th Regiment, is being considered by the national organization for selection as the most Outstanding Persh- ing Rifle Company in the United States for school year 1967-68.

RIGHT The cadets of I Com- pany stand at parade rest. 286 Parades were an important part of the Army ROTC Drill. The cadets learned es- prit de corps and discipline from march- ing together as a unit. Going with the pa- rades of the Army ROTC Brigade were ceremonies conducted to honor important individuals or to present awards or dec-- orations. The Military Scien ce Department was honored by visits from high-ranking officers of the United States Army. Among the several men to come to the New Mex- ico State University campus last year were Major General Francis J. Murdoch, Deputy Commanding General Reserve Forces, Fourth United States Army. No military unit would be complete without inspections. Each spring the Fourth United States Army sends an in- spection team to each ROTC unit in the area. This team checks all facets of Army ROTC, including the cadets on the drill field. Horses of the Army ROTC Color Guard are reminiscent of the old United States Army Cavalry, and last year the mounted color guard added another embellish- ment to the Tuesday drill. The horses are owned by the cadets who ride them. Last but certainly not least, is the mas- cot of the Brigade, Private Streak. Streak was obtained two years ago from Mr. Lee Stryker.

There have been changes in the type of layout and staff organization. However, the basic goal of the book has remained the same. It is first of all a book for the student. If students can pick up the Swastika and smile over some JBci lent or person that had been forgotten, then the effort was worth it. Swastika Photographers 1. Brad Bane 2. Thomas Baird 3.

It is for and because of the student that massive structures are built, lawns are mowed, sec- retaries take notes, and lectures are written. It is for him, the youth with ideals, hopes, and plans, that the entire system exists. He is the only important person at the uni- versity. 297 anxiety, hope typify frosh A freshman ' s world is a newness. A newness filled with anxiety toward the freedom and responsibility they have earned. It is a transition from the past that will influence and mold their futures. It is a world with a different system, different rules, and different morals. It is a year of adjustment. A new kind of pressure is realized. How that pressure is handled means success or failure. A freshman adjusts to a two-hour break between classes and invariably fits in subology at least one hour a day. Surviving registration and initiation is the first obstacle toward the many goals they will set; toward many they will fulfill. A fresh- man learns to contribute as well as cooperate and he starts learning on A Day. A Day is from the first refrain of Aggies, oh Aggies ... through the weed pulling, lifting whitewash barrels, trading licks with an upperclassman, rebelling, and the tug-of-war, a beginning. A beginning of friendships, fun-hating, straining, and then the realization of truly belonging. A freshman ' s world is roommates, suitemates, and wallmates. It is a year filled with acquaintances and friendships that will last. It is a world of discovering other people, other ideologies, but mostly it is a year of just finding themselves. 298 i FAR LEFT An unidentified co-ed receives part of the rebellious action of freshman.

ABOVE A tired freshman questions her A Mountain experience. 299 assurance marks sophs Soph omores are a new breed. Some are determined to do better while others are satisfied by just trying to hold on. A sophomore realizes his potential and his expectations. The year brings weeding out, measuring up and meeting requirements. A sophomore returns to find some friends already dropped by the wayside. A sophomore thinks he is top dog and only later realizes he really was not. The revenge on underclassmen just does not seem to bring as much satisfaction as expected. Sophomores know the right places to go and the right people to know. They know the way to get by and some even know the right way. Sophomores worry about grades, about the draft, about the freshman girls, but mostly they worry about this time next year . p iiii|b9sii 300 ABOVE Sophomores battle with freshmen during A Day activities.

RIGHT An NMSU co-ed does research in the new Branson Library. juniors stabilize, look Jun.ors are almost there. They have carved a niche and the goal ,s defined. Juniors are coming close and some are letting go. The sen.ors are on their way out, but the juniors have the experience and another year to function. They take a more active and serious interest in student government. Next year ' s policies will be theirs and they want to change them or perpetuate the ones that agree with their own philosophies. Junior year is one of meeting deadlines and realizing the mal year of classes leaves little choice. Some have left an easy load, but there are just as many who will be uncertain of that degree until final grades are posted. A class ring is ordered with hopes the year on it will coincide with the year on the diploma A lunior ' s circle of friends is smaller than during the first two years, but the friends that do remain will be the ones remembered and kept in touch with through the years. Juniors file for degrees and practice teaching, both sexes date underclassmen, and some become engaged or make final prepara- tions for their weddings. This year and the summer that follows bring the biggest number of marriages compared to the other classes. Mostly juniors just hope. ?02 LEFT An AKL helps cheerleader Toni Reay wrap ,he goal- posts before a game. CENTER Brenda Branson, a lournal- u pEr ' R°[GH; ' ; ' ' ° ° ' broadcasting studios.

LOWER RIGHT Linda Eastwood compares not s with a classmate. ahead 303 seniors plan, remember A senior year is filled with final preparations and demanding activities. Traditional activities are done with pride. Pictures, purchasing commence- ment invitations, measuring for cap and gowns, and wearing that class ring truly stabilize the reality of senior status. There are many job appli- cations to be filled and interviews that stimulate. This is the culmination of years of studying and striving. The uncertainty of freshmen days are still present. Perhaps more crucially felt now is the self questioning of their ability to take the role they have prepared for themselves. The formal ceremony is met with a mixture of feelings. Relief floods many, but to all some degree of nostalgia must certainly be felt. A senior ' s memories are many. The football games, the homecomings, parties, discussions under a tree in spring, inspiring professors, kegs at the river, the chimes, and people will never be re- captured though remembered so, so many times. A diploma signifies more than credit hours, more than long hours of study, and more than a vast reservoir of academic knowledge. It is the possession of experiences, experiences numerable enough to tap into usefulness for a lifetime. 304 LEFT Dick Thomas, recruiter from Union Oil, interviews senior Ron Mauldin for a potential job opportunity.

It is a refuge of sorts, and I feel as though it is honne. I am not alone. From the same balcony, the tree has heard the en- tire staff yell orders, plead for help, socialize, and bemoan our many plights. We have had troubles with Swastika ' 68. We have tried to produce an annual of which the student body can be proud. To do this we had to make many changes. We differed the staff structure, book or- ganization, layout procedure, and subject approaches. As with any change in movement, there was inertia. It took many gentle proddings and heated arguments to convince staff and students that the differences would be effective. Another major difficulty was photography. We could only build our staff by trial and error, as it was a new field for us. It resulted in misunderstand- ings and mistakes throughout the year. We thank you, the students, for your patience. The Swastika needed the photography staff build- up because our best (and, at times, only) photogra- pher, Wes Lovett, was to be graduated in June. Wes has stuck by the Swatiska through mountains of work and late payments for four years. Only when he is gone, I am afraid, will he be fully appreciated. Another change taking effect in the summer of 1968 is the move to the new offices in Corbett Cen- ter. A great deal of time has been spent designing and deciding the shape and size of each room and piece of furniture for the new building. It will be sad to leave the old office. The yearbook has been in the MSC rooms for 20 years. It may be hard to part with the poor lighting, rickety desks, and roaches for the shiny efficiency of Corbett Cen- ter. We will miss most poignantly the balcony and the tree about which we all feel so possessive. For myself, it will be doubly so. Ending my edi- torship brings many memories, both happy and pain- ful. The arguments, panics, late nights, jokes, parties, and tears come back as I look at the tree, my tree, our tree, now black against a streetlight. wixie sherwood editor swastika ' 68 336 f
