A World In Itself At first glance, Pembroke State University may seem like a trivial campus university, situated in a minute, quiet Southern town where life slowly flows within the long, serene days. By-passers or new students who are not familiar with the school may even underestimate its significance. It is the purpose of the 1983 Indianhead, therefore, to prove this campus anything but ordinary. A lengthy analysis of the campus, and life within it, portrays Pembroke State as a world in itself . . . When you consider the great variety of personalities, morals, values, backgrounds, languages, activities, experiences and events that comprise this vital campus, the shared invol- vement in PSU becomes something special. Students help, accept, and learn from one another, overlooking individual differences. The student body successfully manages to remain unified, despite the variety and individuality on campus. The Pembroke State University world suggests different things to different students: for some it is a world of new ideas and ideals; for others it is a place of sharing and friendship; for some it constitutes a place to mature and grow with a purpose in mind; for others it is a world of intellectual fulfillment and challenge. This is the place where students set some of their standards and make their biggest plans. This is the place where students discover strengths and weaknesses, and hopefully improve in spite of them. A challenge awaits every student: to enjoy and benefit from the broad scope in the Pembroke State University world.

Exterior P.S.U. Thousands of people drive by Pembroke State University each day; some are by-passers, but most are Pembroke natives. As they glance toward the campus, from highway 711 or state road 1569, their eyes rest on Sampson Hall, Old Main or the Performing Arts Center. The doric architecture of the older buildings helps convey simplicity, vigor, and solemnity. If onlookers happen to drive by at the right time of the year, they are fortunate enough to witness the exquisite flourishing trees and blooming bushes. Perhaps people wonder what the school is like. It is difficult to judge from the exterior; hardly any students are seen from the outside view, and activity resides within the campus. It is the yearbook staff ' s hope, therefore, that these people will have the chance to see the 1983 lndianhead and allow us to analyze this campus. Through this yearbook, people will understand, familiarize themselves with, and gain valuable knowledge concerning P.S.U. — its functions, its people, and their limitless capabilities.
