A'T'E Location and opportunity combine to entice students Only one half of all college students who seek a baccalaureate degree will actually achieve their goal, according to the US Education Department. If this statement holds true then it is probably that NSU has seen 69,738 students pass across her campus. Since 1909 with the establish ment of the Northeastern State Normal School, precisely 34,869 proud students have accepted their diplomas with joy. What attracted all of those young ambitious students to Northeastern? Was it the location, the educational opportunities or was it the people? Dr. Frank Redd, president ofthe Normal School felt that Tahlequah as a campus location was one of the most beautiful in the southwest. He boasted that Tahlequah was regarded as the most picturesque town in Oklahoma. uThe springs. the surrounding hills and mountains in the near distance all combine to make our school town ideal for its scenic beauty. The value of such surroundings as the home for an institution of learning cannot be overestimatedf was Reddis description. The educational opportunities have expanded from teaching certificates to graduate level programs in education on to professional programs in nursing and optometry. Most people agree that NSU is attractive because of its people. The university is built around caring and sincere faculty who are concerned with the education which they present to their students. NSU has a hometown atmosphere with 7,000 studentSv all of whom are individuals. This is what makes NSU. This is the reason why those 34.869 graduates are proud to be alumni from Northeastern. Going beyond the conventional The Cherokee Nation establish' ed the first free, compulsory, cw educational public school system in the world in 1841. Fires destroyed the original school buildings, but the Female Seminary was rebuilt, completed April 18. 1889. Twenty yearslater, the state purchased the seminary. creating Northeastern State Normal School. Academic standards varied greatly in the Normal School. In ndditiun to the usual courses of academic studies, mathematics. history. English, science. ancient and modern languages. there were the following special departments: Pedagogy. domestic science. agriculture, manual training. vocal and instrumental music. oratory. art and complete commercial course and athletics. While the intellectual and physical development of our students is amply provided for, so also attention is given to moral training. The faculty consists of Christian men and women who, working through the school and in conjunction with the pastors of the different churches of our city. combine to furnish a splendid spiritual environment, according to President D. Frank Redd. in contrast. the 1984-85 catalog states. With a strong committment to a diverse constituency of students, alumni, businesses and the professions in eastern Oklahoma, Northeastern provides programs beyond conventional and formal educational opportunities. Among these services are extension, public service, continuing education and televised instruction. Over the years Northeastern has continually expanded its academic programs. In the 1950's Northeastern emerged as a comprehensive state college, broadening its curriculum at the baccalaureate level to emcompnss liberal arts subjects and adding a fifth year program designed to prepare master teachers fur elementary and secondary schools. By the early 1970's the function of the instituion had been broadened to include degree options in the field at teacher education at both the baccalaureate and the master's degree levels as well as new programs in liberal arts. business and selected service areas. The Northeastern State University College of Optometry opened in 1979 and made history wheti its first doctoral graduates received their degrees in the spring of 1983. With all its changes. President Redd's remarks still fit today - We have an ideal and healthful location 2m unsurpassed faculty and an enthusiastic student body . 8 Mini mag ' 9n $ Who 04;!!th Jami Admission process develops into complicated ordeal Each year junior and senior year high school students file into designated testing areas to submit themselves to the pressure of the American College Testing,7 Program 1ACT1.

Ballenger is older than Seminary Hall and M the university itself, but he is still an active part of 0M Northeastern State University and Tahlequah. Ballenger came to NSU in 1914 as a history Qr M professor, five years after state creation of Northeastern State Normal School. previously the Cherokee Female Seminary. He taught at Northeastern for 35 years before retiring in 1951. Being an NSU tradition himself, Ballenger remembers the ultimate college tradition of homecoming as the single biggest clay at Northeastern. According to Ballenger, the celebration was a combination Ofcollege homecoming and the Cherokee annual meeting. They would have a picnic south of Seminary Hall at the foot of the campus by the big spring. It was a social gathering. A lot of Northeastern people would return at this time, he commented. The picnic dinners would be complete with fried chicken and all the trimmings. The day of festivities included a street parade followed with a meeting of former students at an old drugstore in downtown Tahlequah. A group would hang around for a while and later go to the college for a noon lunch. Then they would go to the football game in the afternoon, Ballenger remembered. Celebrating his 102th birthday in December, Ballenger still attends the Redmen football games, is an active participant in Kaleidoscope Week and occasionally visits the NSU library. In his spare time, Ballenger is busy writing. When 1 think of something that hasn't been written and know about it, 1 write it. he commented. He has written about 15 articles for The Chronicles of Oklahoma and is also an honorary life member of the Oklahoma Historical Society.

Each day at 5:30 AM and were assigned to details in the hall. The students were to clean their rooms which were inspected daily, sweep. make fires and wash dishes. Such details were deemed necessary for all students. The remainder of the day was spent in classes and in exercise which usually consisted of a one to three mile walk daily. After dinner an hour was allotted for study and lights were promptly out at 9:00 PM. As for visitation there was none allowed by the opposite sex whatsoever. The students never left campus without an adult chaperone and there were no more than six girls to a chaperone. Intentional disrespect of any officer of the hall resulted in suspension. Today verbal abuse of staff members results only in a $10 fine. SHOWTNU OFF HIS fancier steps. Chris Harrod enjoys the Homecoming Dance, the female students were awakened days of the Female Seminarians in A 1946 graduate, Dr. Valgene Littlefield was the 1984 Faculty Member of the Year. This outstanding educator didnit plan to teach at all. He was pursuing a career in law. 4f M In grade and high school there was no speech program. but I was always an extrovert and enjoyed being in plays and speaking contests. I had no plans at all to teach. I was much more interested in government and history. My real objective was to become an attorney, said the NSU speech teacher. In 1967, Littlefield was named Alumnus of the Year by the NSU Alumni Association. This award is given annually to the Northeastern graduate who through personal achievement and service has brought honor and distinction to the University. I really cherish that award. 1 have been so fortunate to receive several wonderful honors, he said. I was speechless when they announced my name for this latest honor. ldon't believe anything has meant more to me than this particular award. To be chosen for such an honor by your peers means so much. Your peers, perhaps more than anyone else, have a more complete awareness ofthe job youire doing in the classroom. Littlefield loves Northeastern and has witnessed many changes over the past few years.New programs and rapid growth account for the most noticeable changes. There was a time when everyone knew everyone else on campus. Thatis changed. Itisjust no longer possible. Fortunately, we're still a friendly school with Close ties, he said.

Maples and Doug Quinn cook hundreds of hot dogs for hungry NSU students. Varsity sports grow as reputation develops The history of sports here at NSU dates back to the very early years of this century. On October 23, 1909 their was a football game between the Jones Academy and the Cherokee Seminary which ended with a score of 100 in favor of the Jone Academy. However as football progressed through the years so did the Redmen and in 1958 they won the NAIA Championship by beating Arizona State at the Holiday Bowl in St. Petersburg, Fla. To this date NSU has been ranked in the top 20 almost every year. Unknown to many students the old wall that separate Haskell Hall from the Library and its parking lot used to be the old east side stands of the original Gable field that was built in the early 2015. During the mid to late 20's two club organizations were started. The N Club organized in 1922 was a club exclusively for athletes that had lettered in a sport. The other was the Tom Toms Pep Club. During the late 205 they held a pep rally for the teams on their road trips and were at all the home games. In 1926 a wrestling team was added to the Athletic Department but only lasted three years from 1948v1951.There was a boxing team coached under Jimmey Williams, who at one time was ranked among the top five contenders for the feather weight championship of the world. Basketball has been a big sport at NSU throughout the years and in the 197879 season. The Redmen started with a bang winning their first eight games in a row and finishing with a 214 record that gave them a birth in the NAIA Playoffs at Kansas City. In 1963 a varsity track team was formed at NSU and has become a very popular sport here. In 1973 athletics took a step forward by adding the first varsity womenIS basketball team. And in 1981 varsity soccer which is also very popular, discontinued to be just a club sport. In 1980 Bill Cochran took over coaching the baseball team and really turned it around taking them to the District 9 playoffs in 1981. Mini mag 13 TRADlTllGlN U'P'D'A'T'E From free to Because of their increased service, the financial aid office has installed a computer system to improve the processing of and distribution of the money and awards students receive each semester. The financial aid program has a variety of aid available to needy students including, 15 hour per week employment on campus for minimum wage scale through the work study program. There are various loans and grant programs such as the Pell Grant and the $253: School OTAG which are designed to meet the educational expenses students canlt meet. With the establishment of the Northeastern State Normal School in 1909 the state of Oklahoma funded the process for students who wished to further their education past the eighth grade. There were no tuition fees or fees of any kind. Students were responsible for transportation, board and books only. The state payed the salaries ofthe faculty and from reading, lriting and ,tithmetic costs rise furnished all materials needed to establish the Normal. All courses were absolutely free. Today when faced with an average 15 hour lower division enrollment of $253 per semester excluding books or board, students often turn to financial aid. The NSU financial aid office presently serves approximately 4,500 students. 60 percent of the student body. This is the largest number of students per semester ever served through the financial aid office. Curriculum changes has kept NSU up to date During the Seminary days in the 1890's before the normal school was established, the educational foundation was rigid, possessing little or no flexibility in the courses offered. Students were required to take eight semesters ofmathematics and English including grammar, composition, rhetoric and literature. Bible lessons, drawing and vocal music were also taken during the four year term. Once the normal school was established in 1909 the curriculum became more varied, allowing specialization in such fields as natural science. English and agriculture. The only drawback to the normal school was the limited number of majors available with all of the majors being directed toward a teaching certificate. Today we have moved from a small college to a university which is constantly upgrading its educational opportunities. Students who are pursuing a baccaleurate degree are required to enroll in a minumum of 33 semester hours of general education requirements. FACULTY MEMBERS DON GRADUAe TlON garb as part of the 75th anniversary celebration.

Certificate programs in areas such as police science and paralegal training are also available to students who have no aspirations for a college degree. Northeastern State University will continue to uphold and refine the superior educational foundation that the Cherokees formed over 100 years ago. 14 Mini mag LEARNING DOESN'T ALXVAYS take plan- in the classroom, us the outside air sonmtimus providus a rufrcshing approach to studying.

Speakers shared their views and explanations of how these stereotypes can be avoided. Bob Hicks, the only American Indian to receive acceptance to the American Film Institute presented his film Return of the Country. In dealing with public education, Rev. Martin Brokenleg, a priest at the Sioux Falls, SD. Orthodox Mission, suggested that Indian children don't do well in language and math; instead they tend to be more artisticXcreative.

It was the worst record by an NSU team since 1977. Take into consideration, NSU probably had the toughest schedule in the history of the school. Playing the likes of 1982 champion Central State, 1983 semi-finalist Central Arkansas, NCAA Division II powerhouse East Texas State and the always-tough members of the Oklahoma Intercol- legiate Conference, classifying it as a utough schedule may be an under- statement. At one point during the season, four of NSU's nine opponents were rated in .the NAIA top 20. And, the Redmen were there, too. Northeastern State started in great fashion, downing Langston, 30-0, and Central Arkansas, 20-14, both in Tahle- quah. The NSU-UCA game was a rematch of the 1983 NAIA quarterfinal contest, won by UCA, 18-7. East Texas inflicted the first loss of the season on head coach George Elliottts squad, a 48-20 thrashing in Commerce, Texas. When Central State invaded Gable Field a week later and prevailed by a touchdown, 31-24, with only 25 seconds to play, it seemed like the whole season had come to an end. A 16-15 victory over Cameron Oct. 6 and a 26-8 victory over Southwestern in the annual homecoming game and OIC opener, put NSU's playoff hopes back into perspective when the Redmen owned a 4-2 mark and nation- al ranking. All NSU had to do was beat two OIC foes, both rated in the top five, North- western and East Central, to qualify fer post-season play. But, 1984 was not meant to be for NSU when Northwestern crushed NSU in Alva, 47-14, and East Central es- caped with a hard-fought 24-10 victory in Ada. If it was any consolation, NSU closed out its regular season with a 23-13win over Southeastern as the Redmen rolled up 549 yards total offense.

But one national honor will be remembered for years to come. After coach Ken Hayes' Redmen won their first 11 games ofthe season, many thought the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics had better take notice. On Dec. 18, 1984, NSU was voted the nation's No.1 basketball team at that level, an award not achieved by Northeastern State since the 1967-68 season. Northeastern State's record for consecutive wins in a single season is 14 games. When NSU journeyed to Enid to take on Phillips, last year's District Nine representative to the national basketball tournament in Kansas City, Mo., the record was at stake. The Redmen downed Phillips, 81-74, and ran the overall mark to 1i tying the school record. But, as fate would have it, t season's basketball team would denied the record when Langs upset the No. 1 Redmen, 96-84, Langston. Despite losing to Langston, N remained atop the NAIA Division I l for three consecutive weeks. When NSU did fall out of the N position, it wasnt far, only to No Then four games and four victo later. Northeastern State moved up No. 2 when the Feb. 4 rankings w released.

But, Willis' squad tenaciousiy battled back to rallyto the .500 mark, 7- 7, over the Christmas break as they aunwl' won three straight to capture top honors in the Pittsburg State Coal Miners Classic.

I'd even go as far as saying we've t a chance to compete in the Inference for the championship, Nowlin said. A pair of sprinters, Nowlin adds, will be the backbone of the program as sophomore Byron McClellan and senior Jonathon Lawrence should provide the much needed consistency. Another event which should be particularly strong for the Redmen is pole vaulting. This year's edition of Redmen tracksters have two vaulters who can better the 14-foot mark.

Returning senior Tom Cartwright, owner of the schools record of 14 feet 6 inches, and freshman Pat Baldwin of Chicago, Nowlin says should both have a very good year and will provide strength in the conference for NSU. ltWith our added depth due to the total number of people outthis season, we should have a very good year, Nowlin said.

Administration Faculty 57 Webb spirit of NSU 6 SThere is a lot of expectation placed on th position of president. t 9 What would you say is Northeasternis tlbiggest plus ? According to President Roger W. Webb the answer is ilSpirit: a spirit that is embodied in the environment here, you can feel it in the trees, on the lawn, and in the classrooms and labs. Others would say Northeasternis Hbiggest plus is the spirit personified in its president. A spirit that reaches out to those around him with the unique talent of making each person feel as they are the only important person. A spirit of truly caring for the individual. His spirit is evi- dent in the many activities he is involved in. Whether it be a football game or meeting with students in the snack bar. President Webb is a visual part of campus. Everyone else on campus has a speci- fic assignment, .but the President has to see the University in terms of its totality and try to get all the parts moving in ' concert rather than conflict, said Webb, speaking of the qualities needed for a good presi- dent. He further explained that a good president needs to havethe capacity to create a structure whereby the talents of the people can be used in a more opportune fashion, he said. Patience and endurance are other qualities needed. There is a lot of expectation placed on the position of president. it is humanly impossible to satisfy all expectations, but the president must attempt to accommodate as many people as possible. It requires a capacity to work long hours, Webb added. Frustration is a big part of being a university president. The most frustrating for President Webb - the constraints of time. . .going home at night knowing there were phone calls I didn't get to 58 Administration return, problems that needed attention, and correspondence that needed answering--that is perhaps that greatest frustration I have, he said. Webb came to NSU as a former Commissioner of Public Safety. A native of Heavener, Webb graduated from Oklahoma State University with a B. A. degree in history and received a juris doctoral degree from the University of Oklahoma in 1967. Coming from outside the educational circle, Webb feels he was least prepared to face the insecurities on the part ofthe University employees N. and faculty. There were more insecurities than I had anticipated. Stability is an important component for an effective University campus, Webb comment- ed. l was surprised at how quickly rumors and misinformation can upset the University equilibrium. You have to continually put out brush fires in order to maintain stability, he added. In the six years of his presidency Webb has tried to maintain an open atmosphere. Not a day goes by that he doesnt have a student, faculty member or administrator in his office. uAlthough I'm not a good evaluator of my own effectiveness; people don't hestitate to stop me and talk, no matter where I am on campus, he said. Webb feels the external image of the University has changed in the years of his presidency. NSU draws students from outside the normal recruiting areas. We've recognized there is talent . creativity here and broaden t acceptability. NSU is having a gre. impact and influence of the proces higher education in the state, W. commented. Webb sees refinement as a goal the future. To seek greater depth in basic curriculum. With limited resources you c either do a few things well, or a lo things poorly. he said. NSU still faces problems in the ar of finance a resources. W- points out the n to secure m resource for edu tion in this state. Celebrating 75th annivers. Northeastern been a histori tradition for learn that goes back to days of the se regio nary. This place been a lightho for those who w to learn new kn ledge, explai .7 ; i Webb, as the si t contributing fao to NSU's continued growth. I usually handle it by not letting mind become clouded by an thoughts to avoid some kind emotional outburst. It's a m effective way in dealing with proble if I can get past the initial emoti- response, Webb commented. Being a university president, Webb's own admission, is a ti consuming job, which takes time a from his wife Gwen, and two sons. It would be normal for any family feel, at times, that the job takes a from some family experienc Conflicts do develop in ti constraints. We are able to work through th however. The family is very support They enjoy doing a lot of the univer activities, so we do a lot of thi together through the univer- framework, he said.

Howeverthere is adistinctgroup that remains from year to year - the personnel which comprise the more than 70 offices throughout the cam- pus. It is these offices which comprisethe community within a community. At first this seems like a highly complex society. But after close examination one can see that each office serves a distinct purpose, whether it be a division office, maintenance or the business office.

If one more form is incomplete or there's just one more unpaid hold sheis likely to scream. Who is this mistreated individual? Another student? How about a business office employee completing just one of 6.000 enrollments. Most students are familiar with the duties of the business officeepayroll, cash collection, and financial aid disbursement-but not with the people behind the counter. Susie Sanders, director of Business Affairs, has worked in the business office for 18 years. She's seen three university presidents, the rising of the Practical Arts Building and thousands of students, of which she hasn't met one she didn't like. Being director of the business office since 1981 Sanders has dealt with more paper work than people, but when students have problems which can't be taken care of in the main office she is more than willing to push away her innumerable accounting reports and assist. After all, she was once a student at Northeastern herself. Sanders has seen the 19605 enroll- ment of 2,000 students exceed 6,000 for the '80s With NSU on the rise, she and other administrators are looking for ways to refine the enrollment pro- cess. At this point they are considering a year-round open enrollment period to alleviate the rush students now experience in completing the process within one short week. Despite ingenious proposals and approaches to refine the enrollment period Sanders says she and other business office employees suffer from pre-enrollment syndrome. The only known remedy is to see familiar faces of students they know, visit for a while and break the routine. 70 Offices MUST PRESENT ID T0 PICK UP CHECK DAVE FLANAGAN, TULSA. receives assistance 1 from Jake Chanate, Veteran's Counselor.

Imagine if you can what it would be like if there were no computers involved. There are those who can recall what enrollment was like 8.0. tbefore computersl, back when the process could take days instead of hours. Before the new system was installed in l978, there was no such thing as pre- enrollment, and there was no way of knowing whether a class would ever exist until after everyone registered. Even as recently as five years ago NSU was in the dark ages of computing. What little equipment we had was underpowered and was used primarily for administrative tasks. That meant students who needed to run their programs had to submit them in the form of punched cards and wait, sometimes for days, before programs were run and results returned to them. We've come a long way. Today the data processing needs of both students and administrators are serviced by the computer center. Under the direction of Larry Hogan, the center's dedicated staff controls the operations of two Hewlett Packard minicomputers tHP 3000-llli. One of these machines is dedicated to ADDING THE NEW phone system multiplied Larry Hogan's problems many times over.

The second computer is for student use and can be accessed via terminals in either the Practical Arts or the Math and Science buildings. Because the computers operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week, running the computer center is not always a 9 to 5 job; someone has to be on call in case of an emergency. What kind of problems does the computer center face? Mainly Oklahoma weather, especially thunderstorms. In fact, lightning strikes account for most of the down time. Of course there is an occasional mechanical failure, but on the whole the computer is up and running 99.9 percent of the time.

Computer Center 73 The process improves The headline read: Microchip Revolutionizes Financial Aid Process. One would think the computer can do anything: the fact is that it can't without proper programming. Developing one such program proved to be a fantastic experience for Jocelyn Payne, direc- tor of Student Financial Aid. With the help of senior programmer analyst Jim Davis, Payne was able to develop a program suitable for the financial aid process. Payne presented to Davis the manual steps which were presently in use. He in return proposed a correlative computer program. Once the proposed program was submitted for a hands-on trial in the actual setting, employees often found the program too tedious or complicated. What may have seemed to be a sound idea in the computer lab wasn't necessarily applicable in the employee setting. This process continued for approxi- mately twenty months. During this time financial aid personnel not only put in extra hours, but learned their regular hours would be long and hard until the system was completed.

We have complaints of fighting, noise, and vandalism, just like a town does? Most people think all we do is give parking tickets, they are amazed when I tell them all the other things we do, he added. The 10 officers in NSU's campus police force have no quotas to meet, and spend much of their time in activities other than writing tickets. We handle all the law enforcement on campus including such things as making all banks runs, securing all buildings at night, delivering and picking up any student who needs to go to the hospital, patrolling parking lots, and helping students with a variety of other problems, Frusher reports. Students who find themselves locked out of their cars, with a flat tire. or with a dead battery, may find the campus police a real blessing. Students are provided with 24-hour security through two patrol cars running at all times and another on stand-by. One full-time dispatcher, with student dispatchers filling in at other times, also helps to provide the 24-hour security. We run 18 to 20 miles in just one circle around the campus, which includes the football stadium and the downtown playhouse, Frusheradded. Parking fines generate over $25,000 a year to the general fund, but nothing directly to the security department, Frusher points out. The same holds true for the parking decals. Many students think their parking decal is a permit--it isn't. In reality it's just a means of registering your car with us, he said.

Bobby Harshaw, Campus Policeman, is otten called to the scene. On other campuses the parking permit allows the students to park in certain reserved lots, however NSU does not have such a program, Frusher explained, stating that he would like to see such a program instituted. Providing more security for evening students has been a major goal of the security department for the last couple of years. I encourage units to be seen in the parking lots at the time evening Classes are letting out, comments Frusher. Besides the campus police, some work-study students with walkie-talk- ies are employed to be in the buildings as evening classes are let out. Students have improved in their behavior so much over the 16years I've been here-they're just fantastic. I'm so pleased. I think good leadership in the Student Senate for the last three to four years has really made a difference, Frusher concluded.

This person plays pro ball now. tCatron would not reveal the namej When the person was a student, the cafeteria staff informed Catron the man was stealing. One day Catron watched as the man passed through the line, ordering six pieces of chicken. When the person got to the cashier Catron told the cashier to charge the student for six pieces of chicken and not just the two on his plate. When the objections started, Catron calmly reached over and pulled bones out of the guy's coat pockets. The meal was paid for and they never had anymore problems with that individual.

Maintenance is divided into four branches: systems, structures, grounds and custodial. Its 100 employees comprise the largest department on campus. Much of the credit goes to President Webb on the physical improvements around campus, said Bob Patrick, Jr., physical plant director. ttJust last spring we added 200 jonquils and tulips. We also added many geraniums this past spring. Patrick explained the mostsatisfying moment was when he was at Lovets one day and overheard a group of students talking about the beautiful campus. That's when he receives his reward. Not only does the color add to the charm of the campus, but the abundance and variety of trees add a special appeal. Last year an additional 100 trees were planted. Although you may not notice the employees in the background, you can tell by looking that they've been there.

In September of 1981 the initial planning began for Northeasternls baccalaureate degree program for registered nurses. This spring the first graduating class of 14 students proudly accepted their diplomas and brought a dream to reality for Elaine M. McMinn, nursing division chairman. uWe worked very hard to get the program started and it's a wonderful feeling to see our first students graduating, said McMinn. Most of the students in the program are full-time working nurses with families who are earning their baccalaureate degree on a part-time basis. As a surprise to McMinn the first graduating class decided to leave a time capsule behind for their fellow students. Participants placed 82 Offices Capsule offers clue to past ' II Ah mementos in the capsule including names of the first graduating class. faculty, newspaper clippings aboutthe division and Florence Nightingale material. A concrete slab which read, The greatest oak was once a little nut that held it's ground, was placed over the capsule. Each succeeding class will chip out their year of graduation on the slab and in 2004 a reunion of the first class is planned. The capsule will be retrieved and its contents reviewed. McMinn expects the enrollment to grow in the years to come once NSU receives word of its national accreditation for the nursing division. A school must graduate one class before it can be reviewed for accreditation.

Our gift line also sells well, said Shirley Evans, director. These items include stuffed animals, music boxes, figurines, and plates. The newest item for sale in the bookstore, is one that is rapidly becoming a household itemethe computer. We sold some Digital Rainbow computers to someofthedivisions and staff personnel on campus and hope to sell to students also, said Evans. We sold the Rainbow computers at a good price, but we can special order other brands to fit students' needs, she added. Sweatsuits are perhaps the best- selling item in the bookstore at present, with sweat suits selling well all year according to Evans. Other items available in the bookstore include office and school supplies, over-the-counter medica- tions, candies, cigarettes, mass market trade books and even children's books. Each fall for the past four years the bookstore has offered weekly discount coupons to students. We really get a good turnout on the coupons. I think the students really appreciate them, said Evans. The University Bookstore employs seven full-time workers, four part- time and 11 student workers.

Some say you have to experience the hard times before you can truly appreciate the good times. Whoever invented that statement must have had college students in mind. After moving away from home and jumping head first into the life of a suave, independent college student many students quickly realize just how dependent they become financially. Money is a hard commodity to come by in college. Holding down a job and carrying a full load of classes often seems impossible to accomplish to the newly independent student. When that paycheck, no matter howsmall, arrives the hard work at last all seems worthwhile. Being poor is an accepted and Students feel crunch expected characteristic of college students. The few dollars earned through work study or other part time employment usually goes toward paying outrageous phone bills, late night munchies and gasoline. The type of entertainment most students can afford doesnlt exceed much beyond dollar movies at the UC. and road trips to Tulsa. Even though many poor students look at their life now as one spent in deprivation, eating out only at McDonald's, unable to afford a nice meal and a $5 theatre ticket, there will be a day when they reach their career goal, earn a real salary, and wonder where all the good times have gone.

Only two returned when the band of weary lndians stopped on the grounds of what is now Northeastern State University, and, as the colorful legend goes, a Cherokee leadersaid, uTah-Ie- ya-quah meaning two is enough or plenty to make the decision. From the upstart of a small village in turbulent times, their work contributed to the annals of history by the construction of a Cherokee capital building, which became the oldest public building in Oklahoma; the installation of the first telephone in the state and the erection of Cherokee Male and Female Seminaries to educate their people. The Cherokee Nation established the first free, compulsory, 00- educational public school system in the world in 1841. Fire destroyed the original school C E t ' SCHUIMLRILH i t 1n f miallh Coinunlou r 104 Seminary Hall buildings, but the Female Seminary was rebuilt, completed April 18, 1889, after the Tahlequah brass band led a procession of 1,500 that witnessed the laying of the cornerstone. It became the largest building ever erected by an Indian tribe, yet when it opened Aug. 26 of that year, many prospective students had to be turned away for lack of accomodations. Twenty years later, the state purchased the seminary, creating the Northeastern State Normal School, and its beginning now marks NSU's 75th anniversary as a state-owned university. Seminary Hall, the emblem for NSU, towering at the south end of the campus, symbolizes the first institution in America to pay equal salaries to men and women professors. It also symbolizes the alma mater of more Indian students than any other university in the nation. Few educational institutions in any place of any time can boast of the heritage, atmosphere of romance and adventure, history and culture, w ennobles Northeastern, n Cherokee history researche Halliburton Jr., who provided background on the Cherokee Mal Female Seminaries. uThe seminary trained hundre young women noted as the flowe the Nation. They later occu positions of responsibility, honor, and profit in the Cherokee Nation state of Oklahoma and the U States, the NSU professor of hi said. NSU's objectives are to continu superior educational experience Cherokees made into a tradition. university has graduated such al as Senate President Pro Tem M York and House Speaker Jim Ba Whether the legend of Tahlequah got its name is true or the legend that Seminary established for educatio opportunities goes unquestioned. Hearing bells ring Have you ever been scurrying across campus and noticed music filling the air? Have you ever wondered where it comes from? The music comes from the bell tower of Seminary Hall, filling the campus with magic refrains and ringing out memories of the past and hopes ofthe future. The bells haven't always rung on the campus of NSU, so when did they begin? The carillon took its place in the heritage and hearts of NSU and Tahlequah in December of 1978. Dr. Major McClure, professor of education, recalls, ttThe old clocks in the tower quit working so we went looking for new clocks. 'fThe clock manufacturers showed the committee information on the carillon and the cost wasn't much more than having new clocks installed. The carillon McClure refers to is aset of bells, hung and arranged, so they can be played as a musical instrument. The carillon is an electro-mechanical unit weighing only a fraction of the 71,000 pounds a set of foundry bells would weigh. The tones of this type of carillon come from tiny bars of bell metal that are struck by individual hammers activated by a keyboard or auto playing device. A large number of faculty work make the bells a reality, said MCCI 'iStudent representatives w included on the committee, makin campus-wide project. Share certificates were sold to r donations of $15,000 needed for carillon. Five-dollar shares were to students, with an incentive of a year tuition scholarship to NSU. Twenty-dollar shares were sol staff, faculty, and alumni. Share $100 were sold to community and groups. Donor's names were plac a drawing for a $250 wardrobe. The $15,000 was raised and carillon became a reality. At five minutes before each h two selections are played, and the is sounded.

They choose a 4-by-1O inch piece of paper to declare their sentiments in the form of a quote, cliche, or poem. Some stickers are catchy, others are bold and outspoken. Some are even designed to make a profound statement aimed at changing the course of the readers life. Todayls generation wants to be heard. Bumper stickers are one means to exercise our right to freedom of speech. And stickers allow people to speak their minds loud and clear. They are a very effective method of communication.

Bumper messages are very diverse. For instance, some state individual beliefs such as llEducation expensive? Try Ignorance, Heaven is real. Do you have a reservation? , Hang Loose, l'l love my soaps, and Warning: I brake for unicorns. Sometimes stickers advocate certain people or interest groups. In this category we find such statments as Nigh, HPresley's Mountain Music, uBox is Tops, Willie Nelson for President, ul love Delta Zeta and Nothing runs like a Deere. Some have more individual expressions such as uAsk me about my grandbaby, llHappiness is a warm gun, lllf a man's house is his castle, let him clean it!, HOld fishermen never die, they just smell that way, and ' rather be hunting.

Keeping in pe has become the thing to do for o by Mark Mauro many fad-conscious individuals. Could it be that this rush of body awareness will subside as quickly as it arose? Not likely in the case of NSU's co-ed aerobics instructor Patricia Schmitt. As a native Californian, Schmitt be- came involved in the art of physical fit- ness almost five years ago. Her involvement in this area goes much farther than a one hour aerobics class four days a week The scores of students and Tahlequah residents that fill the gym- nasium at the physical fitness center every weekday at 5:30 pm. work themselves not only to look and feel better about themselves, but because of all the encouragement they receive from their instructor. Schmitt assures her class that they need not worry about doing all four sets of each exercise, but that they Iis- ten to their body and be aware of the danger signals such as dizziness and muscle pain. She stresses the impor- tance for each student to watch their heart rate and not push themselves be- yound their maximum rate, which she has charted for everyone according to their age. Each day after class Schmitt makes herself available to answer any ques- tions her students might ask. She admits that she might not have all of the answers but she will find someone who does. Maintaining a close rela- tionship with her students is top priority. Rhonda Thompson. Coweta Richard Todd, Henryetta Jimmie Tramel.

It's often prepackaged, additive-laden and preserved to last longer than we will. We're here to celebrate junk food, the wonderful world of the empty calorie. Take the Twinkie for example. It may not be the best-tasting of the junk foods - the cake itself is pretty uninspired - but the Hostess Twinkie is one that they'll be talking about long after the famous ttTwinkie Defense of Dan White has long been forgotten. The Twinkie was developed by a Chicago baker specializing in sponge cake for strawberry shortcakes. When strawberries went out of season the baker decided to fill the cakes with sugary cream so they could be sold year round. The name Twinkie,' arose when the baker spotted an advertisement for Twinkle Toe Shoes. If he had decided to call the cakes Toes instead ofTwinkiestheentirecourse of history might have been changed. During World War II our boys had a bigger problem than the Germans. Yes, you guessed it - chocolate mess. The chocolate bars sent to our soldiers for quick energy gave them sticky trigger fingers and almost lost us the war. Through the development of M8tMs, the chocolate that melts in your mouth, not in your hand, M8tM Mars Corp. not only saved us the war but developed a junk food for the masses. In 1980, the chief of the Cavity Prevention and Research Branch of the National Institute of Dental Research said the cavity-producing potential of various foods ttcannot be assessed simply on the basis of concentration of sugar. The junk food industry rejoiced and printed up many pamphlets to provide to all of those worried closet chocolate maniacs. So mg, 11 MCD SHELLS.

They can see themselves cruis- ing down the 4-Iane in a shiny, new convertible or behind the wheel of the stainless steel DeLorean that appeared on campus last fall. But dream as they may, most NSU students had to be content with a prac- tical econobox, a hand-me-down, barely goin' rattletrap, or at best a sporty Ford or Chevy pickup. The national car market was differ- ent this year. The past several years - 1983 and 1984 - were noteable fortheir introduction of high-excitement autos such as the Firebird, Camaro, Fiero, Corvette, Mustang SVO and CaravanNoyager mini-vans. While 1985 wasntt a vintage year for cars, it was a healthy year for Detroit and they contented themselves with renewal and revitalization of their middIe-of-the-road products. They re- fined many existing models. The top cars, according to Motor Trend magazine were sound and weII-engin- eered. Their pick forthe 1985 Car of the Year was Volkswagen's GTI.

Such a statement was enough to arouse terrifying nightmares in even the most studious of college students. Semesters pass, hours accumulate and graduation draws near as upperciassmen take time to look back upon the earlier years and wonderhow they ever made it this far in pursuing the infamous degree. Was their success in completing college due to the 30 hours of study they spent per week for every 15 hour semester course load they carried? For a few, probably far few than we choose to acknowledge, studying every day after class and preparing for an exam one week ahead of time was a way of life . . . but for most, college life went hand-in-hand with all night cram sessions. How many pounds of salted popcorn and gallons of Pepsi were consumed on any given Thursday night before a Friday exam? How many uncombed heads arrived to class on Friday morning with nothing to show fortheir sleepless night other than bags under their eyes? The search for the ultimate method of making the grades is never ending. Whether it be by the secret of studying or by the grace of chance in multiple choice. college students will continue to sweat out the GPA. MAKING THE GRADES can mean long hours in the library searching through the seemingly endless supply of card catalogs. Grover T Duffield, Jr.. Claremore Lisa Duffield, Claremore Joe Dunaway.

Today the composition of our grad- uate school is much more varied. ltThere are still many educators, but as our school and its prog rams has ex- panded we now have students within many other disciplines. We have two M.A.s, four M.S.s, two M.B.A.s and se- ven M.Ed. degrees. The 1,500 students are pretty evenly spread throughout these areas,n said Dr. Marjorie Holland, graduate dean.

Long range benefits eyed I Leaving the security of job, home, an auxilary business and two steady incomes for sub-Ievel poverty and hours of stress and study is not a trade most are willing to make. For Jim and Charlene Dunn the decision to walk away from the life in Poteau forthe risk and uncertainty of going back to school was not an easy one. There's no guarantee that you'll make it, Jim explained. After all, there are some students that drop out each year. But I decided that my degree wasn't going to take me where I wanted to go. I knew lid never be a group research leader or a head of a laboratory. After several years that began to gnaw on me and I realized that I wanted to go back to school and specialize in something. 'lAt first Charlene wasn't in favor of it. She had a good job as an office manager and a chance for advance- ment. We had purchased a beautiful house overlooking Poteau and had a side business. But even though we had a good income we couldnlt renovate the house or do the things we wanted to do. So, we thought about these things and decided that the only way we could ever control our own finan- cial destiny or have the freedom we wanted was to be self-employed. Charlene really wasn't too excited about leaving her home and moving to Tahlequah. ltl wasn't ready to give up our house and we were pretty comfort- able. We both had good jobs. I felt like we were in Poteau to stay. We knew about the possibility for a couple of years since our initial dis- cussions. He was taking some prereq- uisites at Carl Albert that he didnt have. We knew that it was a possibility, but until he got the acceptance letter I 140 Optometry Closeup hadn't felt like it was actually going to happen. I guess that's when I started having misgivings. Until that time I thought there was a possibility that it wouldn't go through and I wouldn't have to worry about it. But it wasn,t long until I realized that it wasthe best thing. I have no regrets. Jim earned his bachelor's degree in Wildlife Research from OSU in 1976. Following a brief stint in the forestry service, boat building and drafting, he accepted a position with the US. De- partment of Agriculture as a biological technician at a research laboratory outside his hometown. While he enjoyed his work, he soon recognized the need to return to school. He and Charlene began inves- tigating the options that matched their goals. Knowing that his decision would rest in a science related field, they narrowed their choices to the health care professions. After careful study they selected optometry and NSU's newly formed College of Optometry provided just the right opportunity. Leaving their comfortable lifestyle behind, Jim and Charlene packed up, moved to Tahlequah where Jim entered the school in 1981. Do they regret it? No. While it certainly was an investment, they expect to see returns for the remainder of their lives. They also feel fortunate in coming to NSU. They're high on Northeastern's College of Optometry and according to Jim, not without good reason. We have an unusual opportunity here. After talking with many optometry students, this school prob- ably offers the best clinical education in the United States, possibly the world. At most schools students see only indigents or students who get rate or inexpensive services.

Immediately after spring tryouts the new squad began practicing together. This preparation continued into the summer for the purpose of competing with other squads at a four day workshop in Dallas on the campus of Southern Methodist University. Many new cheers were learned as well as new and more difficult stunts. The many hours of preparation paid off as the squad received excellent ratings each night during their stay in Dallas. This year there are an even number of men and women on the squad. With the increased manpower the difficulty of stunts has also increased. Injuries have plagued the squad this year. Lynna Hembree dislocated her elbow during the SMU workshop. Amazing stunts prove dangerous Surgery was required and she was expected to be out for six months. However she was cheering again in less than six weeks.

Hlt could have been a lot worse, but the girls bounced back quickly and we're all happy about that. When in full force the squad performed amazingly difficult and exciting stunts.

Years ago her love for music helped her to become a professional singer in her hometown of Houston. Today after witnessing the power of music in other areas Miller has put aside her professional singing for a teaching certificate. Before Miller came to Northeastern she taught a Head Start class in which she met David, a highly disturbed little boy with no interest in school. Miller said David would bang his head on the wall, but when music was played in the class he would mellow down and become very content. At that time she did not realize educators were actually using music therapy as a means of communication between the instructor and the emotionally disturbed student; Miller only saw its effect from her own experience with David. Today after 14 years, she is attending NSU to earn a degree in learning disabilities with a minor in music so she can go into the study of music therapy. As president of the Student Council for Exceptional Children, Miller and other members are admired for their work with exceptional children through art shows and the Special Olympics which are held each spring. These programs provide entertain- ment and a feeling of personal achievement for the children while aiding campus students in theirfield of study -mental retardation. learning disabilities or the emotionally disturbed.

Students had plenty ofopportunities to meet new students and to renew old friendships from the previous year. This group of approximately 35 dedicated students didnlt stop there. Each week throughout the year featured movies, bonfires or pep assemblies. They seemed to know the pulse of the students and what was needed to keep them interested and coming back. With the popularity of boardgame Trivial Pursuit. the NAB offered another first, a Trivial Pursuit Tournament to test the students mental capacity for remembering the trifles of life. With so much going on all the time, said Ann Jackson, president, iirunning out of time is our biggest problem. It's frustrating when you have more to do than time allows.

On-the-job training Experience instead of luck is often the key factor in gaining employment. Every year college graduates face tough competition as they enter into the job market due to their lack of on- the-job experience. Captain Victor Bero of Northeastern's Army ROTC program feels that those students who do gain practical experience in the Army possess the competitive edge. In i984 the Army ROTC program registered its iargest enrollment in history. This is largely due to the fact that the US. has outgrown the Vietnam era and the nation's mood is on an upswing. The ROTC is designed to train men and women to become officers in the United State Army. Upon completion of the MS IVyearthestudent enters the Army asasecondIieutenantandfulfiils a military obligation of up to eight years combined between active and inactive duty. Major Michael Donovan, professor of military science, feels that becoming a leader requires more than just learning leadership skills. Students must enact the be-knoew-do concept in their learning-they can be a leader through knowiedge of their duties and actions in field trials. One area of the ROTC which should soon show an increase on campus is that of nursing once national accreditation is received for the nursing division. Since tactical training didn't benefit future nurses as much as it did combat specialists, ROTC managers began a special camp for nurses only, The students work with Army nurses and gain real experience in the world of Army health care and spend only one week in field training and weapon familiarization.

We feel like weive been through a war together. Everyday was wild, just one story after another. Actually, we had a blast. While we knew each other in passing beforethis, we really became friends during that week. I imagine we'll be sending each other Christmas cards when were 60. The organization boasted a membership of approximately 50. The number was estimated because it kept growing each time they met. While concerned with profit, the group considered themselves in the people business. Other activities within the year were a Christmas party hosted and planned by the marketing club, participation in Business Week and Kaleidoscope, and attendance at the American Marketing Association conventions in St. Louis and Chicago.

Marketing 157 Indian culture still thriving Holding the nation's highest enrollment of Native Americans, Northeastern is proud of its Indian heritage which extends back to 1889 when the Cherokee Female Seminary was first erected. Although that proud moment was many years ago the Indian culture is still thriving today from the concerned efforts of the Native American Student Association INASAI. Jake Chanate, NASA sponsor, feels that the organization provides students with a cultural enlightenment along with their education. uEducation has excelled, but we forgot who we were. We need to slow down and let our culture catch up with our scholastic and social ability, commented Chanate. As a Kiowa Indian, Chanate shares his heritage through the art of storytelling. The language of the Kiowa has no written alphabet; therefore, Chanate fears that his generation may be the last to speak the language. He repeats Kiowan stories to his children in the hopes that one day they too can pass on the pieces of their ancestral history as he has done. NASA members also promote activities such as Chanate's storytelling to preserve their culture. Each fall they sponsor a powwow which according to Chanate is away to express themselves and the love for their culture. During the 12th Annual Indian Symposium, Roberta Ferro, J.D., Office of Affirmative Action. Univers of Kansas, felt that teaching American indian culture should only be passed on within tribes, that it must also be shared with othe She explained that the amount knowledge made available to other extremely important in formation their personal attitudes.

They planned their finest owing for Oct. 20, Homecoming-in - rain. aiting 10 years for new uniforms, - members of NSU's Marching Band re anxious to display their newly rchased green and whites. Sure ough, first time out they marched vely on the field to be greeted by rents of rain which continued for ir entire performance. n spite of the untimely autumn aather which also dampened their amecoming performances, the new 3k was seen and appreciated by the edmen fans. The new uniforms are structurally sound and able to withstand the rain, said band director Bob Bailey. The greatest danger from the rain is not to the uniform, but to the students. They might catch cold! Uniforms are made to last. They are braced and reinforced and the colors are guaranteed not to run. Students assume responsibility for their care within the school year. lfthey get dirty they must pay to have them cleaned. The snappy green and white uniforms were designed by Bailey whose purpose was to design a timeless uniform. lfstyleschangethisonewillchange with them. We chose the military style for that reason. It wasn't the cut or the style on the old onesthat dated them. It was the logo on the back. It was so predominant that they became obsolete. It contained the large letters, tNEOSUI When those were new they were beautiful and current. The military styling is classic. It looks nice, but is also neutral in time period. We can look back in a few years. and they will still be fitting and attractive. Designed with a two-fold purpose in mind the uniforms are striking on the field, but add the shoulder-braids, take off the hat and it has a dignified, formal look on stage. 80, come rain or shine, inside or outside, NSU's band is dressed in style for any occassion. Band 169 Professor seeks interpretive freedom Donald StudebakerIs office is arranged to meet the demands of his intense daily activities. An upright piano stands opposite a small desk with several neat, high stacks of manuscripts, music scores and texts. The doctoral dissertation in process there focuses on choral conducting and literature. From a similar desk, Studebaker wrote HThe Liszt Requiem, an article published in the Choral Journal of the American Choral Director's Association, in May of 1983. Another article HPart Books, Then and Now is slated for this fall in the same journal. Seated at his larger desk, facing the door with files and bookshelves behind him, the recently appointed Director of Choral Activities for NSU was in the process of organizing concert tours for the coming semesters. As he mentioned, he had spent the day on the phone contacting the dozens of people involved in bookings. With the understanding smile of one who is experienced, he indicated that the project had yet to be approved. Studebaker has been the Director of Choral Activities at the University of Northern Colorado and Choral Director at Pueblo East High School in Pueblo, Colorado. He welcomes the moist atmosphere of Oklahoma's Green Country. For, as a bass soloist with the Colorado Springs Symphony Orchestra and Chorus and the Greeley Philharmonic' Orchestra and Chorus, he has had considerable experience maintaining vocal strength in a dry atmosphere. When asked if he might miss the mountains or access to urban areas, Studebaker expressed optimism at expanding his professional involvement into a new territory. Just as he knows the value of his expertise and commitment in teaching at NSU, he recognizes the importance of pursuing association with other music professionals. The deep, abiding respect for art that you like, study and perform is communicated as an example. In high school music education, he continued, Itfacts are taught. Yet, in college, where the students are motivated to be here. you reiate an attitude of curiosity and appreciation. It gives them a foundation from which they grow in knowledge.

Tucker, was pastoring a growing ? 0, , in church in Tahlequah. He enjoyed his ; i position, but when parents of new students at NSU asked him to visittheir children and see howthey were doing, he found that many of these coeds were questioning the values and teachings of their parents and churches. As Tucker describes it, 'Most of them were away from Mom and Dad for the first time, and they were in the process of making the faith their own. Today, although CCF is involved in a wide range of activities, its primary goals are still the same. tiMany students say they' ve been run through Photo by James Smith a religious cookie cutter, said Tucker, And they're looking for something more personal. 'The fellowship tries to provide a setting where students can ask questions and then encourages them to put those answers into action. To accomplish this, CCF has something going almost every day or night of the week. For example on Sunday, outreach teams go to area churches to present musical or dramatic programs, on Tuesdaysthere is the main fellowship meeting at the campus house and during the week small family groups of from seven to 12 students meet for a more personal time of sharing. Tucker stresses that CCF is not in competition with any local church or any other Christ centered group on campus, HOur goals are to present the good news of Jesus Christ to those who haven't heard it, and to encourage Christian students to maintain and increase their faith, and to bring Christian students together.

But the articulate brunette is h associate pastor of First United hodist Church of Tahlequah and ctor of the Wesley Foundation, the pus outreach ministry of the hodist denomination. ou have to laugh. Sometimes pIe will come to the door and ask if the pastor's wife. You should see look on their face when I tell them , no, I'm the pastor. They look ned, like, 'Oh my gosh, what do I now?' I do look younger than I am. One e this. guy asked me if I was the ysitter. It was hard to convince him t I was one of the pastors of the rch next door. he's quick to admit that while there comical aspects to her profession, ting there has had its difficult ments. ook first sensed her call from God ate high school. I was on a retreat anyon Camp. I would always walk ugh this beautiful area. It was ing this time that I felt His call. It always in my mind and heart after t. fter college at Oklahoma City iversity she decided to take a year tbeforeshe madeadefinite decision Iattend seminary and pursue the nistry. She was program ordinator at Linwood United ethodist Church in Oklahoma City. 'The minister there pushed me to nsider ordination and to look at that Pastor's wife? Maybe. Babysitter? Probably. Minister? Never! Youthful Carol COOIK has lots of surprises in store for the people she serves . . . part of my call. The first time I preached l was scared to death, but after that experience I knew that was the way I needed to go, said Cook. In college I had great opposition from several of my male peers. One was very outspoken and quick to tell methatto bestudyingthesethingswas okay, but I dare not think about seminary. He was athorn in my side all of that time. Through that I began to see just how important the ministry really was to me and how I did feel drawn there. During seminary I often wondered what I was doing there. Professors were good about reminding students, particularly women students, of the kind of antagonism that would come their way. Then there was the anticipation of your future appointment. I was prepared and enthusiastic to serve, yet lwondered if there would be a place to serve. Things were narrowed down and limited more for me than for my male collegues. Cook feels fortunate in receiving her appointment. So far she hasn't encountered any real opposition within the church or the Wesley Foundation. Her senior minister, Stan Warfield. and the congregation have been very supportive and encour- aging. I know there are people within the community that disapprove, I will have to prove myself often. I'm sure there are people on the campus as well. I hopetheywillsee meas clergy and asa minister in this area. I know I have to be very careful about things I'm willing to take a stand on. My strategy has to be sharper for dealing with change or implementation because there is scrutiny there. She credits her mother, several youth directors, her professors at OCU and the women faculty at St. Paul's School of Theology for helping her find the courage and inspiration to follow her call and realize her goals. She's excited about the possibilities at the Wesley Foundation and sees its ministry to young people as vital within the campus community. She hopes to develop a rapport with the students and to establish an active program which includes Bible studies, worship, fellowship and various service activities. The college years are a critical time in life, she said. I hope the Foundation will be a place where students feel free to share their struggles and questions. I hope that here they can find a support community to stand with them. We can't always take them out of a problem, but we can help them through it. The issue of whether women should serve as clergy is certainly a stormy one and not easily put to rest. But the fact that Carol Cook is prepared both intellectually and spiritually, to serve is quite clear. With her warmth and her compassionate heart she is uniquely suited for her job. Wesley Foundation I 75 Leadership pays dividends Why is senior Susan Reid grateful to the Readers Digest and why does Lee Marcum feel especially thankful for Riverside Press of Dallas? Because both students received financial assistance from the respective companies in the form of Graphic Arts Technical Foundation scholarships. They feel doubly honored because these are the first Foundation scholarships given to NSU students. The monetary awards are given to deserving graphic arts students who demonstrate leadership qualities, talent and scholastic excellence. Predictably, both Reid and Marcum maintain an admirable GPA and hold leadership positions in a number of campus organizations. Reid, from Bixby is vice president of Epsilon Pi Tau, an honorary professional fraternity in industrial arts and vocational education, while Marcum, Gore senior is president. Founded in 1929 in recognition of leadership potential, membership in EPT is by invitation only. It is a particular honor which signifies that peers and colleagues recognize leadership accomplishments and leadership potential. To qualify a student must maintain a 3.0 GPA in their industrial major and have taken 16 hours of industrial classes. Every pledge, or apprentice, is given a metal triangle which bears the EPT insignia. Each triangle must be completed according to the specifications required by the fraternity. Each apprentice must obtain the signatures of members and fellow apprentices for the purpose of introducing them to each other and to members. Members stay busy during the fall semester planning and preparing for the initiation cermony and banquet. in spring, the members took an out-of- state weekend field trip to the Dallas area where they toured different companies.

I 78 Organizations in Oklahoma With tourism bringing in $32 billion to Oklahoma and with parimutual horse racing on the rise, the state must be prepared to handle the influx of tourists. This is a prime example ofthe need for well trained touristry managers, Ed Polivka, director of tourism management feels that he has just the people for the job. Five years ago when Polivka took over as director there were only 10 students in tourism; todaythe program boasts over 125 and enables the students to go beyond the classroom setting for learning by way of travel into the real world of management. Each year students journey to booming cities such as Chicago, Dallas and New Orleans to acquire hands-on experience in the world of business while enjoying lifestyles different from their own. Polivka feels that by experiencing Big bucks spent large city business, students become more travel oriented and less reserved in their career goals enabling them to a better chance at 'tmaking it in the big time. Tourism majors may also gain an extra competitive edge in the area of meeting and convention management since NSU is only one of two universities in the US. with such a program. Each year business executives spend $29 billion in convention expenses to train their personnel. The annual expense of such conventions exceeds the record and movie industry combined by almost $21 billion. Oklahoma's central location is helping the stateto become a preferred choice for business conventions creating greater need for trained professionals to handle such problems as accomodations and entertainment.

'We have 35 to 40 PLC students on campus at any given time. Most of them are from Eastern Oklahoma. They are academically bright and possess leadership skills, said Caughman. PLC members hold monthly meetings and are involved in such activities as Homecoming and Kaleidscope. ltOurs is the most superior leadership program in the state. We try to afford our students with opportunities besides just the scholarship, he commented. Field trips, seminars and conferences are all a part of the program. PLC members host the High School Leadership Conference for the students across the state. uThe program is designed to bring students from across the state together in a forum where they are exposed to speakers they might not otherwise have ever metJ' Caughman commented. llWe try to bring in people from outside the speaking circuit. The class also sponsors a leadership forum in November for on-campus organizations. ill think sometimes these students are stereotyped. The diversity is really unbelievable. They aren't all the Pre- Med type students, in fact their major area of study is not a determining factor in their selection, he said.

Over the years, Delta Zetas have had many things to be proud of, but more than anything membership means friends. According to Julie Holmberg, vice president of the local chapter, getting to know other girls is the greatest advantage to sorority living. 'Not only do you make lasting friendships, but girls get leadership experience by being in the executive council. Sisterhood, big sisters and little sisters, thatls important, said Holmberg. It's nice to have a group of friends to do things With. Its good to have study buddies too to help out with school work. Delta Zeta tries to search for just the right pledges, considering such things as responsibility, a good GPA, activities and committment. On Dec. 1, the D23 had their Christmas party and then a week later their Christmas formal. Both events are popular with all the members. During Greek Week in April both sororities compete in games. Weather permitting, they begin with a canoe race on Sunday followed by a sunrise breakfast the next morning. The sorority getting the most members present acquires more points. One day of Greek Week is devoted to indoor sports in the Cue Bowl. They also compete in backgammon and Pente.

These young women have a noble reason for their trip. They are trick or treating for donations to the Robbie Page Memorial Fund, a national philantrophy of Sigma Sigma Sigma sorority. The donations provide play and physical therapy equipment for three hospitals in the US. Giving to such a worthy cause wasn't the only distinction the Sigmas earned during the year. The also won the national chapter achievement award for improvements and increased efficiency. ltln a span of two years the group grew and became much more active in the national organization, said sponsor Cheryl Kinion. In addition they won the scholastic award during Greek Week last April. We're really proud of that achievement. 196 Greeks The Sigma's also play a major role in the activities of Kaleidoscope as well as Greek Week, both held annually in April. Founded at Northeastern in 1928, the women are still striving toward excellence. Their most immediate goals are to increase chapter membership and the leadership roles that the members assume on campus. They would like to make non-Greeks aware of the advantages to campus life that a sorority can otter. HSororities in general can do a lot to expand a students knowledge of the social graces and broaden their outlooks, said Kinion. Welre looking for women who have good ideas, are concerned with their scholastic achievements 'and are willing to play a relevant role in the life of NSU.

Pi Kappa Alpha 199 Phi Sigma First fraternity on campus Sigma Tau Gamma Celebrates 60th birthday The Sigma Tau Gamma fraternity was the first fraternity on campus. They celebrated their 60th anniversary this year and President Webb cut a ribbon on the fraternity house during the ceremonies. Sigma Tau Gamma is a national organization established in 1920. In 1924 this chapter became the fifth in the organization. A fraternity must have five chapters to be a national fraternity therefore,this chapter holds the distinction of being the first fraternity on campus as well as establishing Sigma Tau Gamma to a national level fraternity. The fraternity is active in community affairs. A group in allegience with the Children's Medical Center took a Epsilon - Sigma Tau Gamma - Phi Sigma Epsilon - Sigma Tau Gamma - Phi Sigma Epsilon - Si group of disabled children to visit the Tulsa State Fair while here in Tahlequah the fraternity is involved with the Special Olympics each spring. When choosing new pledges, the fraternity members look for students who are of good academic standing, exhibit leadership ability and are concerned with the organization's charitable functions. The Sigma Tau Gamma members aren't only kept busy with IFC, Kaleidoscope and their annual Christmas formal, but they are in planning to build a new house in the summer. The fraternity proudly boasts the only Greek organization house on campus. Plum: by Faiz Halvhi Phi Sigma Epsilon in it for the money The Phi Sigma Epsilon fraternity is set up as an incorporated business to make a profit. Their major investment is the three to four acres they own. This land is located across from the baseball field. They are discussing the possibility of building a house on it in the future. The requirements to pledge also inspire the businessman concept. The members and pledges are encouraged to dress in clothes befitting the business attitude. Every Tuesday is coat and tie day and Wednesday is for wearing the Greek letters. The Phi Sigs are also active in community services. They sponsor a social night every Wednesday. They also give Christmas gifts to the underprivleged children of the area. This is done in association with the 200 Greeks city. The fraternity gathers together the gifts and the city distributes them. Out of approximately 100 chapters this one was the third formed. The fraternity is a nation wide organization, but most of the chapters are located in the mid-western region of the country. The fall is their busy semester with pledges and new officer initiation. The pledges are initiated the seventh week of the fall semester. The requirements for the fraternity are mainly to conduct themselves in a gentleman like manner. This is probably the most important aspect of the frat requirements. The members must maintain a 2.0 GPA. The pledges are selected with these qualities in mind and are encouraged to carry on this tradition and reputation in the future. El Phum by Mihr' Hruu'n . H391 'r 4 k ' 1 7'. NE?

Gathering often at Bobby Thompson's house, the group prides itself on being competitive. ttWelll compete with anybody for anything, said Thompson, who joined because he had friends in the fraternity.

During spring break their vacation place is at South Padre Island. They're very proud of their alumni. This year Northeasternts Outstanding Alumnus of the Year was a member of Phi Lambda Chi, Jack Graves. When looking for just the right pledges, Phi Lamb members consider young men who are committed, willing to help others and want to be involved with the group's activities.

The Zeta Rho chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi set high goals for their members according to Robert Jackson. 'We stress achievement - in school, scholastically and in business. Our pledges must spend four hours a day, everyday for up to six weeks in the library. As regular members, Kappa brothers meet every two weeks with a school counselor to learn techniques of time management and good study habits. Founded in 1909 as the first black fraternity in the country, the local chapter was established in 1972. There are 16 members in the NSU chapter with about 12,000 members nationwide. While primarily a black fraternity, anyone can pledge, regardless of color. According to Jackson, membership is for life, '1once a Kappa, always a Kappa? Some famous Kappas include Alex English, a forward on the Denver Nuggets basketball team, former NBA player; Mayor Tom Bradley of Los Angeles; tennis star Arthur Ashe and Wilt Chamberlain. Besides striving for brotherhood and good grades, Kappas also do their share of good within the greater community. Around Thanksgiving time they go door-to-door collecting canned goods to be given to underprivileged people of Tahlequah. Putting their business sense to work, they also sponsor a revolving loan, a Iow-interest loan available to anyone on campus. During the Christmas season undergraduates get together for a turkey dinner. Last year marked the first Kappa Bail, an annual dance held at the Tsa La Gi Lodge. The dance is open to all. During the event the Kappas crown their queen. Some distinction was also gained in sports last years, as the Kappas won th regional championship in intramural basketball. The playoffs were held in Tulsa at the Hilton Hotel.

The Acacia Alumni Committee, concerned with the state of the chapter, contacted the National Acacia Association prompting the leadership consultants to come and help reorgan- ize the fraternity. With very few senior Acacia mem- bers, the new recruits were basically in charge of the new chapter, forming house rules and setting up standards for the fraternity. The alumni also helped immensely with the reorganiza- tion efforts. providing support and gui- dance after the consultants left. 204 Greeks Instructor'of music, Ed Myers is chapter advisor. Acacia was founded at the University of Michigan on May 12, 1904 by fourteen Master Masons. Since 1904 the fraternity has changed with the times and student needs, no longer restricted to the Masonic obligations except through informal and spiritual ties. The Acacia Alumni and the Educational Foundation provide funds for scholarships given to Acacia members. Aoacians live by the uHuman Services motto striving for better academic and leadership qualities. Currently there are 50 chapters nationwide and 26,000 active alumni members.

Another19were wounded after James Huberty entered the McDonald's, and with three weapons which fired 257 rounds, committed the worst one-man massacre in US. history. Patriotism headed the conscious- ness of American citizens during the Olympics held in Los Angeies. From the victories of runner Carl Lewis and THE THREAT OF dumping sewage into the Illinois River sparked student interest in STIR. Mary Lou Retton to the tragedy of trackster Mary Decker. Americans spent hours watching the Olympics coverage. Olympic spirit was not only present in Los Angeles however; souvenirs and collectibles were everywhere. From stuffed animals to coins to Olympic flags. Americans were often overwhelmed by Olympic advertising; however, most didn't seem to mind, viewing it as a patriotic act. Another race which kept American spirit high was the presidential race. Winning his re-election bid by a landslide in the electoral college, President Ronald Reagan called his victory a mandate for a continuation of his policies. Reagan gained 525 electoral votes compared to Democratic candidate Walter Mondale's 13. Mondale won only his home state of Minnesota and Washington, DC.

I hope this is the way you feel after Viewing the 1985 Tsa La Gi. What we have tried to do is freeze time by gathering accomplish, ments throughout the year which were special and ale lowed us to chalk one up? We had many events that were unique. You only have . a 75th anniversary once, you know. And I hope each of you will have memories from this year which are oute standing. Capturing a year of your life has not been easy, and much of the credit for this book goes to an excellent staff and complete cooperav tion from the faculty, staff and administration. As you browse through this book we hope you will feel - to borrow a phrase . This is your life. A special thanks for letting us be a part of it. Billie Jean Parker Editor in Chief
