This may hold true-but certainly not in Malibu. With no distinct deadlines heralding the transition from storms and rain to sun and heat, Malibu has many seasonal facets, nonetheless. Malibu residents may wonder what changes quicker-the weather or the town. It would seem with all the construction and with the heavy building equipment parked up and down the coast that Malibu is in the midst of a growth boom. No, Malibu is in the midst of a struggle against those things even money and tradition cannot measure up to: the finite against the infinite. Perhaps that parallel best lends itself to the history of Malibu. A struggle in the finest and the worst sense of the word describes the early Adamson-Rindge fights to keep the country out of their country, and the slow defeat that quickly led to an opening up of a virtual wilderness. From that point on, Malibu has become a solid word that to its residents means home and to the rest of the country means surfing and vacational beaches. During the summer, tourists literally wash up with every wave and try to capture a little of the ambience that the early Indians called Malibu, the settlement by the water. There are those who have successfully made a home and a fresh name for themselves here. Pep-perdine University is one of those stars which one finds twinkling after dusk in the clear blue-black shadows of hills and sky. Malibu and Pepperdine still continue to view each other in a novel sort of way. Neither is leaving, so one is not a toy that the other can afford to tire of. There are few palm trees in Malibu. Bad roads and hazards of fire, storms and landslides are the last frontier in many senses. This is what makes the town what it is-an adventurous contradiction to be shared by those who can take risks. And for those who cannot take risks is the bumper-sticker advice found on Malibu Rolls Royces and jeeps- Welcome to Malibu, now go home! —by Bill High 4 NEW WAVES Clockwise from top left.

NEW WAVES 5 • Like an ideal resort in a travel brochure, Pepper-dine is indeed a place of beauty, offering students many opportunities other than academic excellence. I first saw Pepperdine in Battle of the Network Stars.' I took one look at the beautiful scenery and thought. I'm going there! commented Kristy Kyi, a Pepperdine freshman. I live in the Midwest and had never been to the ocean. I couldn't pass up a school that overlooks the ocean! said a Seaver junior. The Christian atmosphere and ideals of Pepperdine are what attracted me, Mike Donaldson, a senior religion major commented. I always envisioned Malibu as this ritzy, rich place where all the movie stars are and Pepperdine would be the ideal place to be exposed to all this, freshman Lisa Storms said jokingly. The Waves, man! Ron Throckmorten, a sophomore exclaimed 'thats what added the icing to the cake. Pep is the ideal place to get an education and go surfing. One hundred seventy-five students were polled and asked, What were some of the reasons you decided to come to Pepperdine?

He dreamt that he w.is walking along the he,uh with the lord Across the sky Hashed scent's o1 his lilt' Ini eath scene. he noticed two sets ot footprints, one belonging to him and one to the lord As the� scenes Hashed before him. he looked at the footprints and noticed lh,il many time's along the path thc'rc' was only one set ot footprints m the sand. He also notic ed that this happened during the lowest and saddest times of his life. This really bothered him, so he questioned the' lord. Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you, you would never leave me' and that you would walk all the' way with me' hut I noticed that during the' troublesome time's ot my hie. there was only one' se'l of of footprints. I don’t understand why, whe'n I needed you most, you would desert me.” The Lord replied, My precious, pri'cious child. I love you and would neve'r leave you. During the times of trial and suffering when you see only one' set of footprints, it was them that I earned you. -author unknown Faith in Cod. It's something that is so often proclaimed and yet so hard to practice. Jesus told us to have faith in Cod (Mark 11:22), but as students, we don't often comprehend the pure meaning of faith, especially around finals time. Pepperdine University, in its affirmation of faith, simply states that Cod is and challenges us as part of our spiritual commitment to strive for excellence. It is through our spiritual friendships that we may join together in establishing an ever-strengthening faith. Together we can share and grow during our years at Pepperdine. In years to come, we will look back and smile at the friendships we made, the singing and rejoicing at devotionals, and the encouragement we gave each other in times of need. Yet there is only one thing that should be remembered above all else. As we look at our footprints in the sand, let it be remembered that all these things were said and done in the name of Jesus Christ, Our l ord and Our Saviour. -by Valerie Eidson Opposite page: (clockwise from top left) Laurel Stevens finds time for prayer in Stauffer Chapel; the sun sets on Phillips theme tower; Stauffer Chapel is illuminated at dusk. A NEWWAVFS The advent of another week brings more pen-exhausting lecture notes, endless pages of tedious reading, and fruitless promises to yourself to finally get caught up in all your classes. It's an endless cycle until finals week arrives sooner than expected and everything has to be done—or else. The pressures of academics. We thought we knew what we were getting ourselves into when we applied to Seaver College, but how could we ever have envisioned the stack of books required for Western Heritage I and all those hours in the library listening to the tapes. We were jubilant when it was over, but there was yet another monster to confront-Western Heritage II. If these are just general education classes, what are upper division classes going to be like Many Seaver College students believe that there are too many general ed requirements. I didn't like taking all those classes, I just want to take classes related to my major, one student stated. Others said that the 60 units of required general ed courses helped them to become well-rounded. My major is computer science, and I don't think I would have ever learned to appreciate art and music V I hadn't been forced to take Fine Arts, a sophomore said. The wide expanse of subject matter covered in lO NEW WAVES the general ed classes has been helpful for students who are uncertain which direction to take for their future studies. I entered Pepperdine with no idea what my major would be, but after taking Man and Society, I discovered that sociology really interests me, one freshman revealed. Since distractions abound at Pepperdine's Malibu campus, it is often difficult to concentrate on studying. With the beach located minutes away and the pool's crystal blue water tempting even the most dedicated scholar, students are never idle. In fact, sometimes it's a wonder how professors can expect the students to study so much. But despite its distractions, the campus' location serves as a particularly helpful setting for a student who wants to study and absorb some of Malibu's sunrays. The students are grateful for these rays because in a way they help to relieve academic pressure. —by Christine Carley Clockwise from top right: Pamela Pawlak rides an Arabian gelding as James Wylie, Pepperdine's riding instructor, holds the horse's reins; Brian Good, Todd Sacks, John Daly.

One visitor remarked that Pepperdine's Seaver College resembles a fashion show more than it resembles an academic institution. Seaver senior Lisa Vanco offered an explanation. First of all, the campus looks like it could be the perfect backdrop for a fashion spread. In fact, many commercials and advertisements are shot here. I really think that the image of a glamorous Malibu influences the way students at Pepperdine dress because they want to fit into that image. The beach atmosphere at Pepperdine influences the casual, yet stylish clothing of the guys. The girls on the other hand are more preoccupied with the latest look in fashion; a lot of them are overly concerned with clothing trends, stated freshman Iris Yokoi. Pepperdine students are individuals who have chosen either to stick with the style norms or make individual fashion statements of their own. Today's typical Pepperdine student might have closely cropped hair or a natural, windblown style. Seaver student Melanie Wong summarized the fashion attitude at Pepperdine University. As a group, Pepperdine students have high standards and expectations. This is demonstrated by the cars they drive, the clothes they wear, and the university they choose to attend.

Pepperdine University is vastly more dependent on the caliber of its students and its extra curricular activities than the spectacular setting' that initially attracts scores of students to Malibu. Lisa Heinz, a veteran Pepperdine student, felt like leaving after her first year as a student at the most beautiful campus in the world. due to unmet anticipations. Heinz recounted with a knowing smile that it was hard gaining a s x ial foothold and that feeling of belonging that is so important to most first year students. Several seasons later, she bubbled when asked why she still attended Pepperdine. I found my own place here, and with the help of friends and sorority sisters. I now have my own little community to which I belong,' Heinz contentedly and confidently conveyed Pepperdine's social life differs from other Southern California universities in that it is not located in a college town such as UCLA's Westwood in Los Angeles. Malibu is as Chris Christiansen puts it, a plat e where most people go to get away, and when you're in college you want to be where it is at. Getting away can be where it is at, especially for those who en|oy the ocean surf, the rural countryside, and the Malibu campus' isolated setting. On the other side of student taste, a faster pace may be obtained by driving into the twinkling lights and glamorous nightlife of internationally known Los Angeles. Pepperdine and Los Angeles complement each other the same way that Kansas and Oz balanced each other out in the well known movie, The Wizard Of Oz, as each destination seems worth the trip when you arrive, but sooner or later you start looking back. For home is where the heart is. Pepperdine University is a home with heart as its administrators and students find ways of providing that link between 'social' and setting,' by being there for each other in many ways. From sororities to swimming pools and classes to clubs, the social life at Pepperdine is as varied as the students who want to find and partake in it. -by Bill High (lock wise from top left: leanne Si Merman enjoys Pepperdine's Raleigh Runnels pool; Stephanie Turman, Anita Rogers, and ( arolyne Keeler dress up for Halloween; time exposure photography creates an interesting landscape on Seaver s campus. 14 NEW WAVES 16 NEW WAVES Left: The Olympic flag flies beside the U.s flag and th � Pepperdine flag at Seaver College Above: Jeff I undeen practices diving for the Olympics. . Games of the XXIIIrd Olympiad Los Angeles 1984 Pepperdine University was the proud location of the water polo competition for the 1984 Summer Olympic Games held in Los Angeles. And while the university took shape with Pepperdine University, the Stars in Motion logo and Olympic rings planted by the landscape crew in red, white and blue petunias on the hill above Raleigh Runnels Pool, flags of magenta, orange and green of the Festive Federalism dotted the campus. Meanwhile, the Olympic college band practiced on the track field, the Olympic Torch made a stopover and run through Malibu to the delight of 2,000 assembled on campus for a 1 a.m. welcoming and many university staff members and students played a part in history in various support services and as volunteers to the Los Angeles Olympic Organizing Committee. Also, the university welcomed the California Highway Patrol officers, Los Angeles County Sheriffs deputies, the U.S. International Water Polo Congress, U.S. water polo officials, FINA officials, water polo players from 12 nations, the many sponsoring corporations, members of the working press and the many thousand visitors who watched the exciting water polo competition-in which the team from Yugoslavia received the gold medal—during Aug. 1-10. Pepperdine University was also represented by eight competitors among alumni, current and former students on teams announced July 28 as the Games of the XXIlIrd Olympiad began. Representing the United States were: -Craig Buck, a member of the men's volleyball team. -Linda Chisolm, a 1981 Seaver College graduate, who was a member of the women's volleyball team. -Terry Schroeder, 1981 Seaver graduate and captain of the water polo team, recognized as one of the world's top hole men. -Kelly Jones, who played men's tennis, a non-medal demonstration event for the L.A. Games. Representing other countries were: -Carlos di Laura, Peru, men's tennis. -Marcos Leite, Brazil, men's basketball, who attended Seaver during the mid-'70s. —Daniel Mulumba, Uganda, swimming. —Peter Rohde, Denmark, swimming. As the Games came to an end on Aug. 12, three of the Pepperdine Olympians had received medals: Buck was the recipient of a gold and Chisolm and Schroeder each had been given silver medals. The Summer Games brought the nation together; the competitors performed skillfully, those in support roles made an enthusiastic commitment to excellence and 2.5 billion people around the world watched television eagerly as the spirit of the Olympics transcended everything else during the days and nights of the Games of '84.

George, Pepperdine first became interested in Helen Davis when he noticed her at a church function. He sought information about this intriguing woman from a friend. This friend, Helen Porter, who was also close to Helen Davis, quickly suggested that the two women take a walk by George Pepperdine's San Fernando Valley home. Helen Pepperdine still clearly remembers the home and its unique garden. He had a lovely garden, there were seven terraces of flowers. The generous nurturing that George Pepperdine extended to lis flowers overflowed into his ondness for Helen Davis, his future wife. While she was attending a night class in sociology at USC, she worked in a photography studio. Unknown to her at the time was that George Pepperdine was paying her salary. Helen and George were married and subsequently Pepperdine College was established in 1937. Helen Pepperdine is still i tied very closely to Pepperdine c University by more than just her name. LIZ WHATLEY: What was George Pepperdine's incentive to start the college? MRS. HELEN PEPPERDINE: His in-! centive to start the college came from the Christian schools known as the “Bible Belts. George came from Kansas, and they didn't have a church in town. They had to take a wagon six miles to hear a preacher. They studied the Bible in their home and George was very intrigued by the Church of Christ. He noticed schools like Abilene Christian and Harding University in the South. He thought that where there were Christian schools, that was where the churches grew. It was the opposite, the churches were over the schools. In the West, there were no Churches of Christ and he wanted the church to be strong. He wanted to do something good for the church. He wanted to help establish the Churches of Christ on the West Coast. George wanted to see a Christian school out here with good education under Christian leadership. He wanted to help young people have a good education. LW: Do you think the university is upholding the philosophy of your husband? HP: Yes, I think so. It has waived a few times because we couldn't get people who were highly educated who were Christians. George’s idea of a Christian was that you had to be a fundamentalist. We try to have Christian instructors and Christian students. We have never lowered our standards educationally or financially, but we have regretted the rise in the cost of tuition. LW: Do you feel Pepperdine will lose its spiritual aspect? HP: No one can predict that.. . are we going to have another war? No one knows. Our intention is to keep the spiritual life growing on campus and the Board of Regents are dedicated to our emphasis. They are not all fundamentalist Christians, but they are Christians and they appreciate what is being done. LW: What are your feelings of Pepperdine today? HP: I am delighted at the progress it has made both in its academic quality and its spiritual growth. The young people today appreciate a Christian education. Education is like athletics is to the body; it is just a training. You are only shaping your mind to get more education along the road. The more you know, the more you want to know. That's the purpose of education. LW: What changes have you seen over the years? HP: There are so many. The students see the progress we have made. We are attracting finer students. LW: Can you compare the students of today to the students of the past? HP: Today, we have a more relaxed student body. When it comes to planning, they seem to be unimaginative. We had a fine social program on the L.A. campus. LW: What traditions would you like to uphold? HP: We used to have chapel every day. No one objected. The school likes to call it convocation now and we can't get back to calling it chapel. The students say that chapel sounds too “churchy. LW: Why don't you live on campus? HP: With my disabilities, and the uneven land in Malibu, I am safer at the home I lived in for 30 years. -Reid Sams FEATURES 21 VM U 5 v w ' ' FHE TRENDS AND TRENDSETTERS OF 1983 ► America's relations with other nations and galaxies usurped much of the time and space of the American media during 1983. Queen Elizabeth's visit to America, the Russians shooting down an unarmed Korean passenger plane, the American invasion of Grenada, and the release of Return of the ledi the third part of the Star Wars triology, were among the top stories of 1983. The year will be remembered as the one during which Sally Ride, the first American woman astronaut, blasted off into space on the space shuttle, Challenger. One month later the first black took the space shuttle beyond our atmosphere. These events marked a mile stone for women and racial minorities. 1983 will be remembered with tears caused by the deaths of many of our Marines who spent much of the year fighting on foreign soil. Two hundred thirty-nine Marines died in their sleep in Beirut at the hands of a lone terrorist. In Grenada, 18 American soldiers died defending the safety of the Americans residing there. 1983 was the year the America's Cup in yachting was lost to the Australians. The people of Baltimore will cherish 1983 because the Orioles won the World Series. But the world's biggest sports story was Los Angeles' preparation for the 1984 Summer Olympics, in which Pepperdine would host water polo events. 1983 was a year that had big business crying and smiling. American Telegraph and Telephone Co. was divided up by the Justice Department. The divesture was called by some the break-up of an unfair monopoly. Others insisted the move merely gave AT T the opportunity to venture into areas beyond telephone service. Chrysler celebrated as it paid the huge debt it owed the government. Politics in America during 1983 was often strange and kinky. On the kinky side, two congressmen were forced to publicly apologize for having sex with teenage pages. Strangely, the M.X. missile was finally approved by Congress after the Bilateral Nuclear Freeze Resolution was passed weeks before. Two bombs exploded in Washington-one real, the other, a pay raise the Senate voted for themselves. For much of 1983, news of strife in Central America dominated headlines: a civil war in El Salvador, 5,000 American troops playing wargames in Honduras, and the four-year-old revolution in Nicaragua brought fears of a Viet Nam repeat. Congress voted to end American funding of Nicaraguan Contras (counter-revolutionaries), but later reversed that decision in a compromise on the Defense Authorization Bill. Relations between the Soviet Union and the United States worsened in 1983. Over the Sea of Japan, a commercial Korean 747 carrying 269 passengers was shot down by the Soviet Union. Music was definitely an international headliner during 1983 with Michael Jackson taking charge of the charts. Jackson had the world dancing and singing to his hit-filled album 'Thriller.' Also especially strong was the acceptance of the Culture Club throughout Europe, Australia and America. The group's lead singer, Boy George, shocked many people with his long, ribboned hair and heavy make-up; but not many could complain about his smooth singing voice. The movie 'Flashdance' and its soundtrack was not only a surprise hit at the box office, but the movie also initiated a widespread fashion craze; ripped sweat and tee shirts became the trendy styles for the summer of 1983. President Reagan's popularity climbed with his demonstration of strong leadership in foreign policy and improved economy. A trip by President Reagan to South Korea, which included a history-making visit to the Demilitarized Zone, was greeted by more than a million flag-waving Koreans. Henry Wolfgang Carter -iUndy Cupp FEATURES 23 V Students “byte” into the computer era by Chris Genzberger Are you computer literate? Unfortunately, many people lack even basic computer skills. A major reason may be fear of the unknown. But individuals, especially students, must realize the significant role that computers play in today's competitive job market. Whether it be in communication, business, or any other field, computer usage is re quired almost everywhere. The computer has already penetrated most business areas, replacing standard office equipment, Daniel Jolliff, a senior public relations major, said. If a person is not computer literate, he will have to depend on others who are able to work on computers. Beginning in 1984, Pepper-dine University has a goal to help every student become computer literate, Dr. Luista Archer, associate director of academic computing systems and planning, said. She explained that services to bring about student and faculty computer knowledge exist throughout the university school system. In addition to the variety of courses being offered, electronic classrooms and computer labs are available for student access. Computer software packages can also be purchased Opposite page: Tsion Taye works on a computer assignment. Right: Chriss Bures typesets in Student Publications at a discount price. Archer stressed that the academic computing department provides opportunities for students and faculty, yet does not rest with the responsibility of instilling computer skill. The department provides support services to enhance faculty in carrying out objectives to accomplish computer literacy goals, she said. Faculty and students must take an active role themselves in order to gain the necessary knowledge. We are in an everchanging world dominated by the computer. No one can dispute the fact that computers are revolutionizing the world. Illiteracy is a side effect which must be corrected in order to keep pace with the significant role of the computer today, and the future. -Rjndy Cupp FEATURES 25 Monday begins like any other day in your life until suddenly, you remember the scheduled Heritage test that you haven't studied for. You gulp down your breakfast to make time to study; your heart pounds as you try to review a chapter in fifteen minutes. Driving to school, you get trapped in traffic. Horns honk and the light turns red three times before you make it through the intersection. Finally in class, your heart still pounds, your mouth is dry and you say to yourself that you will never procrastinate again. But, surely enough, you will do the same thing again next week, as you did last week and the week before that. This typifies a regular day for some Pepper- dine students. Pepperdine student Joe Mad-dalena noted, A lot of people work better under pressure. For many, it's natural to wait until the last second. Many students find that there is pressure in school besides studies. Students take for granted that the foreign students are away from their friends and family for a year or sometimes longer, said student Chay Yew. I Sometimes we have an urge to go home, but we know we can't. It gets especially lonely | around the holidays. Lisa Blankenship, counselor at the Campus Psychological Services, states that 'Pressure among students is a combination of many different things. Academic pressures can be 26 FEATURES c I caused by parental over expectations or self expectations. A student's major is also a big determinant in creating pressure. Some students suffer from test anxiety; although they know the subject matter, they clam up for a test. For this, she recommends counseling. She adds, In addition to academics, interpersonal tension can lead to pressure. Many students have problems dealing with relation-ships-more frequently with roommates than with a boyfriend or girlfriend Social pressure is significant at Seaver College. Many may question whether they will fit in with their peers. Will you have to change your style, your attitude, your identity? Would you drink to fit into a certain clique? are questions college students ask themselves. Student Bonnie Newman comments, Many people are great to talk to on a one-to-one basis, but when I talk to them in public, their whole attitude seemed to change. We finally make it to our senior year. All of the college pressures are almost over. One important question remains in our heads: Will we get the jobs we were hoping for? Suddenly the pressures we put upon ourselves cramming for the Heritage test seem insignificant. We live in a fast-paced world. We are continually bombarded with responsibilities and decisions to be made. But life is truly what we make of it. And so is pressure. Conrad Theodore FEATURES 27 -David lea$«r don't believe it, it's him!' Battle of the Network Stars by Kerry Graffy Yes, it was that time of year again when things were getting a bit weird around campus. My first clue was the bleachers set up on the intramurals field. The grass was colored, camera equipment was in position, cables zig-zagged across the turf, and planes and helicopters circled above like vultures waiting for their prey. I knew something was up when I passed a group of girls on my way to the pool. They were completely awestruck, clutching pieces of autographed paper. They didn't respond to my hello so I moved on. One young man was proudly displaying a towel to his comrades that Heather Thomas of The Fall Guy had used. One sports jock, who never before seemed to be at a loss for words, now could not seem to find his tongue because he had actual eye contact with Heather Locklear, a sexy star of TJ. Hooker and Dynasty. Although many Pepperdine students act rather nonchalant, unimpressed, and bored with the Battle of the Network Stars, the truth of the matter is that many students, businessmen, mothers and children alike are transformed into wild, screaming, autograph-seeking star gazers. Things were getting a bit out of hand, so I decided to analyze this. What exactly is a star? Are they super-human, untouchable gods and goddesses made immortal by film? Through a plan best not mentioned, I managed to get up to the stars' trailers, hoping to catch a different side of these much sought after people, away from their screaming fans. To my amazement, I saw one star asking another for an autograph. I saw Donna Mills, of Knots Landing under the makeup tent with her hair in curlers and Ana Alicia of Falcon Crest sitting on the ground rubbing sore feet. These were REAL PEOPLE! I couldn't wait to tell those disillusioned fans that these were people just like us; people who dieted, had idols, and put their shoes on one foot at a time like the rest of the world. I really get nervous, admitted Heather Locklear, especially in the Kayak competition, right before it's my turn. Billy Moses,of Falcon Crest con fided that he doesn't get ner- vous about performing in the Battle. Luckily, I love sports and stay in shape. One year they called me the day before and asked if I would be in it! Ana Alicia was practicing for the baseball dunk. After hitting the target twice, she finally missed. Now that's more like me, she exclaimed, I usually always miss. Lottery star Ben Murphy excitedly told of his most memorable event of the weekend. In the bicycle race, I took this one turn really sharp and actually got ahead of Mr. T and beat him! Mr. T, from The A Team enjoyed entertaining the crowds and playing with the children. If they had made a bouncer competition, I would've won it! he joked about his big build. Battle 15 was not much different than the other 14, but maybe this year some of us can sit back and laugh at ourselves and admire the stars for being real people.

The building features Smothers Theatre and the Helen Lind lurst Foyer. To accommodate the increased enrollment at Pepper-dine, 75 on-campus apartments have been constructed. Each unit includes a kitchen, living room and two bedrooms. At the separate Commons Building located within the apartment complex, students can gather for meetings, watch television, or just lounge on couches. JoAnn McKee, a junior, commented about the current changes at Pepperdine, I took off from Pepperdine for a year. When I came back, it seemed like a new place. I think Pepper- dine is trying to build unity by bringing the upperclassmen and faculty on campus with the new housing facilities. O n May 1, a $100 million Wave of Excellence fundraising effort was announced for future expansion that is to include a fine arts building and gallery, an administration building, a communication building, a business building and expansion of the School of Law. Construction is to occur in the next five to six years. According to Dr. Michael Adams, there were 40 major requests for inclusion in the expansion proposals, with only 3 i the aforementioned five buildings commanding top priority. Other proposed developments include additional classrooms and laboratories, athletic facilities, housing and parking, and a student union building for both the School of Law and Seaver College. Pepperdine has recently allotted $1 million toward the construction of the $10 million administration building. Larry Hornbaker, senior vice president of Pepperdine University, stated that the university will not build a facility until we have the commitments in hand, or we have the resources available to build the facility. Linda Powell FEATURES 31 ''Seaver must achieve a new degree of toughness. Dr. John Wilson by Heidi Bernard Uncommon potential are two words that can be applied to Seaver College and Dr. John Wilson, Seaver College's new academic dean. Hailing from Springfield, Mo., Wilson's previous credentials include being an administrator, religious professor and author, and director of the Christian Center of Southwest Missouri State University. Wilson has a very positive image of Pepperdine. I'm impressed by the campus and the ability and concern of the faculty. Seaver is ripening to excellence after its move to Malibu from Los Angeles and continued expansion of new schools, he says. Being a good school is shooting for top quality.” His aim is to have a strong faculty involved in the outside academic world where the action is. I hope the faculty (members) will in their own way seek national and international recognition in their fields. Pepperdine has to live up to its academic reputation. Pepperdine's combination of academics and concrete Christian values appeals to Wilson. Some schools go to the extremes with a constrictive system while others affect a total avoidance of values, he says. In contrast, Pepperdine is a school with a definite value system that is presented to the students while preserving their personal rights and freedom. Pepperdine's value system combined with a good liberal arts program results in the very best way to educate people. Wilson stresses that Seaver College is a liberal arts school. Students must decide that general education requirements are necessary and not to be gotten out of the way.' Seaver students have an edge, an advantage because they can read Shakespeare and enjoy a symphony as well as program a computer, he says. I want Seaver to be the best at giving students a general liberal arts education. 'To concentrate on what we have and make it the best is SeaveKs goal. Pepperdine is improving itself by an approximate 30 percent increase on entrance scores and higher test results for Pepperdine students. Seaver College must achieve a new degree of toughness. Wilson's forecast is that as Pepperdine's academic standards are increased, so will its reputation as a superior learning institution.

A trimester in London is now offered as an exciting alternative to the learning experience at Seaver College. The London program received an enthusiastic response from Seaver students. Many qualified students applied for the 26 allotted openings. The minimum requirements to be considered for acceptance are a successful completion of 32 units and a minimum G.P.A. of 2.5. The London program is the result of detective work on the parts of Dr. Herbert Luft, dean of European programs, Dr. John McClung, director of the Year-in-Europe program at Pepperdine, and Ms. Colleen Graffy, co-director of administration in Heidelberg. After searching London for a location, they decided on the Imperial College in Knightsbridge. Knightsbridge, located near Hyde Park, is one of the most distinguished areas in London. It serves as an excellent home and study base. Our students live in the heart of London and can constantly experience its thrill, culture and excitement, stated McClung, director of the program. Students can shop at the famous department store Harrods, ride the tube to the houses of Parliament, the Thames, Buckingham Palace or visit one of the many fascinating museums in London. Home for the 26 London students is a hotel that was once a lovely English residence. Visiting Seaver professor Dr. Clarence Hibbs resided in the hotel and taught psychology and religion classes at Imperial College during the Winter trimester. Business classes were taught by Dr. Farrel Gean in the spring. Other courses in history, literature and fine arts were taught by distinguished professors with doctorates from Harvard and Cambridge Universities. Dr. McClung is enthusiastic about the program, declaring it the brightest star in Pepperdine's crown of success. —by johanne Liebermann ACADEMICS CAPITOL INTERNSHIPS A chance for students to study in Washington Washington D.C., is the na-lon's center for government, lusiness, special interests, media, and the arts. The Washington Cen-er of Learning Alternatives in affiliation with Pepperdine University offers a complete internship program for Seaver ollege undergraduates. The academic program in-ludes internship placement, orientation, counseling, evaluations, a term-long academic seminar, guest lecturers and special events. Stephen McHargue, director of the program at Pepperdine, said he receives about 20 applications per trimester, but only about two or three students actually go. Students can earn up to 16 units of credit working in an internship setting. All students, especially political science and communications majors can benefit from this experience. A meeting is held for those interested in the program, but most students learn of the program by word of mouth. McHargue said the best input is from returning students. They (the students) find Washington D.C. is different than they think and become immersed in what goes on there, said McHargue. The Washington Center is truly a great chance to grow and mature in a setting apart from Malibu, yet connected with Pepperdine. -by Heidi Bernard ACADEMICS 37 HEIDELBERG: HEART END HOME Meinen Damen und Herren, im vvenige Minuten erreichen wir im Heidelberg. This phrase echoes in the ears of students returning home to Moore Haus, Pepperdine's German housing facility, after a weekend of European travel. It means Ladies and gentleman, in a few minutes we will be arriving in Heidelberg,” a serenely captivating and romantic town. Vear-m-Europe director. Dr. John McClung claimed. Moore Haus is the pearl and pride of Pepper-dine. Nestled in the hills above old Heidelberg, within sight of its famous castle, Moore Haus is an outstanding jewel among a pile of treasures. Heidelberg extends the learning process from the traditional classroom scene to the excitement of true experience. Field trips across Bavaria on the Romantic Road, through East Germany, France, and Greece help form a broad understanding and appreciation of European culture. Personal growth and development are complementary attributes acquired by living in a foreign culture. Karen Brown, a Pepperdine student for two trimesters in Germany, characterized her stay in Heidelberg as a time of togetherness. An irreplaceable and unrepeatable experience, was Nancy NorquisTs evaluation of her year in Europe. European travel is truly wonderful: that night in Paris, ice skating in Garmisch, or gelati in Italy. In 1983, Pepperdine's Year-in-Europe program celebrated its 21st year in Heidelberg. McClung stated. I think we are very fortunate that we offer a credible European program which stresses academics. It makes me feel good to know we are academically sound. The continued enthusiastic response by applicants and Heidelberg alumni supports the reputation of this program. Pepperdine's Year-in-Europe program offers the hope and chance of doing things never dared before. These are the things that dreams are made of. —by Heidi Bernard Photo (above): Dr. John McClung directs Seaver's Year-irvEurope program.

SUCCESS IN BUSINESS Qoth incoming students and the outside business world are attracted to Pepperdine's business division, particularly those interested in an accounting major. Dr. Jere Yates reported that there is an increasing amount of interest being shown in us by the 'Big-Eight accounting firms. The business world is recognizing that our program is turning out good people. Pepperdine's business curriculum is designed to prepare students for careers in accounting, business and management. Economics, marketing, management, small business, finance, and computer science are additional areas of interest for business majors. These areas help prepare students for entry level jobs while business re quirements widen the field for professional opportunities. An accounting major is another possibility for business students. Dr. Farrell Cean, associate professor of accounting said that graduates of the program have excellent opportunities, especially with the attention paid to Seaver by the Big-Eight firms. The success of the division relies on the quality of the students and faculty. Pepper-dine has good quality students who are bright and eager to learn. The faculty has spirit and cohesiveness that relate to purpose, Yates said. The division is a growing and active one. Four new professors were added this year to fill the gaps created by the increasing number of students. Professional activities of the faculty are on the upswing. They are writing and having articles published in professional journals and books, Yates said. A five year accounting program is foreseen by the department. This would provide for a two year pre-accountancy period to fulfill master's acoun-tancy requirements. -by Heidi Bernard 40 ACADEMICS Dr. Michael Summers advises a business student.

KMBU radio station offers students a chance to perfect their broadcasting skills. I he communication division at Seaver College offers majors in broadcasting, communication, foreign languages (French, Spanish and German) journalism, speech communication and theater. In the communication major, sequences in communication theory, organizational communication, advertising, public relations, and international affairs are given. The master's degree is offered in communication. Communication majors can further develop their skills through the campus media (student publications) or Pepper-dine's broadcast stations. Smother's Theatre also sets the stage for speech and theater majors to practice. Several other special opportunities are available for communication majors too. Journalism and broadcast majors compete in the California Intercollegiate Press Association conventions and competitions. Internships are available to journalism, broadcasting, public relations, organizational communication, advertising, and photocommunication majors to work in a professional capacity with local newspapers, radio and T.V. stations while completing their academic training. For the theatre majors, major drama productions and one-act plays are performed. The communication division at Seaver College has grown into a well-known and respected department both nationally and abroad. The communication division has set high standards and is gaining a good reputation from its graduates. -by Melanie Wong M 42 ACADEMICS Steven Ames,Ed.D...................Assoc.

Dr. James Smythe, human-ities fine arts division chairman, stated that studies conducted at Harvard and Vale universities find the largest percentage of people who go to the top in business have undergraduate majors in the liberal arts. A liberal arts education enables a person to adapt easier. Thus, a person with a liberal arts major has been taught the learning process. The humanities fine arts division enthusiastically welcomed the addition of Dr. Lydia Wilburn to the staff. Wilburn instructs students in ArADFMICS Students perform Fiddler in Smothers Theater. Western Heritage I and various upper division literature courses. Her special interest area is the late 19th and 20th centuries. The art of the fine arts divi- sion is often displayed in the Seaver College Art Gallery. Other examples of artistic excellence are featured in the university's student publications. Ahmanson music building provides excellent rehearsal, classroom and recital facilities for both theater and music majors. The works of this division are displayed to Seaver students and the Malibu community in many popular performances and productions. The humanities fine arts division at Seaver College continues to provide students with a well-rounded liberal education to enable them to succeed and be productive in our society. -by Erin Urrutia Dr. Paul Piersall directs the Seaver College Singers during convocation. lames Atteberry.

ACADEMICS 45 UPDATING SEAVER’S SCIENCE DIVISION I he natural science division surged ahead with new programs and ideas for the upcoming year. The Victor 9000 microcomputer drew the most attention this year. Stan Warford commented, When digital watches and calculators first came out, they had limited capabilities and were very expensive. Eventually their capabilities increased dramatically and their cost came down. Computers are in the same category. They are becoming much more powerful, inexpensive and ubiquitous. The equipment in the computer lab followed this new trend in computers. In contrast to the old computers, the new Victor 9000 microcomputers have four times the main memory capacity, two disk drives instead of one and better graphics. Phil Oldham joined the natural science division as an analytical chemist. His main responsibility was to teach freshman chemistry and analytical chemistry. An honors research program Kambiz Behzad studies in Murchison's science lab. in biology will be added to Pep-perdine's curriculum this summer. The program is designed to provide students with a realistic and practical look at the biological sciences, Dr. Gary Tallman, associate professor of biology, said. According to Tallman, the goal of the program is to better prepare students for careers in the biological sciences. Another major addition to the Malibu campus and the natural science division is the new Helen Field Heritage Hall. The focal point of the building is the sports medicine fitness center. It attracts many students to its line of Nautilus equipment and Olympic weights. The response to the gym is overwhelming. The gym is used frequently and at certain times students have to wait to use the equipment because it is filled to capacity, Dr. George Fairbanks, assistant professor of sports medicine, said. On the same floor is an athletic training room used exclusively by sports team members. It is mainly used for rehabilitation and treatment of sports-related accidents. The Heritage Hall also houses offices and a banquet room with space for displaying school trophies. Dr. Howard White's office will use this room to entertain members of the L.A. Olympic Organizing Committee in preparation for the '84 Summer Olympic Water Polo games. -by Stephanie Bohannan 46 ACADEMICS Carol Adjemian, Ph.D....Assoc.

A religious atmosphere is essential to a growing Christian, and Pepperdine fulfills the void that secular colleges have. Students have many opportunities to become involved in various church functions. Bible studies, devotionals, and retreats are sponsored by Cam- pus Ministry and SCA's spiritual life committee. In cooperation with the Church of Christ, Pepperdine offers the Heidelberg Bible School. In the two-year program, students are prepared for careers in the ministry and as future church leaders. Classes are taught in German. The religion division gives an extensive academic background while serving the students with a multiple on-hands experience. Spiritual growth and knowledge are sure benefits from this department. -by Melanie Wong 4ft ACADEMICS - Royce Clark, Ph.D.... John Free, Ph.D...... Stuart Love,Ph.D.....

ACADEMICS 49 T AN ADVENTURE IN LEARNING Dr. Jon Johnston prepares for his summer trip. L earning not only in the classroom but about new people and places throughout the world proved to be one main emphasis and adventure of the social science division in 1984. With what could be called a combination of multi-campuses, professors and students were spread from London to Israel. A new trimester in London program began in January. Dr. Clarence Hibbs, chairman of the social science division, was the first visiting professor to teach and advise in London. The students will surely have benefited by the cross cultural experience, he said. And Dr. Jon Johnson's annual trip abroad took students to Israel during the spring trimester. Participating students were able to receive anthropological credits. Meanwhile at the Malibu campus Dr. Bob Gilliam was busily involved in computer literacy. Dr. Ron Fagan and Dr. Lewis Aiken also taught and researched in the computer literacy area. The tutoring program at Camp David Gonzales in Malibu Canyon was continued and students earned extra credit units. Students also had an opportunity to work at Camarillo State Hospital. Areas of social science are economics, political science, pyschology, sociology, youth agency administration and teacher education with a major in liberal arts. An additional major was added in clinical psychology. -by Karen Brown Lewis Aiken, Ph.D..............................Prof, of Psychology Ola Barnett, Ph.D..............................Prof, of Psychology Nancy Magnusson-Fagan,Ph.D.....Assoc.

For P.E. majors and other students, it plants a sense of competition, knowledge and pride in their minds and bodies. For those majoring in physical education, the course offerings are a lot more than “rocks for jocks. Courses are designed to train men and women in coaching, teaching and commercial Fitness program areas. The sports medicine major is ACADEMICS also tied in closely with the physical education department. Majoring in sports medicine allows a student to prepare himself for the more technical aspects of exercise science, Bill Gray, a sports medicine major, said. The sports medicine program provides a strong background for graduate level work in fields like exercise physiology, physical therapy and chiropractic medicine. Students must prove competency in team sports or other individual sports, as well as tak- ing health and organizational oriented classes to complete the major. Four units of physical education are required by state legislation and Pepperdine to graduate. Therefore, almost all students have participated in a physical activity on or off campus. Pepperdine provides a very at tractive array of electives to choose from. Sailing scuba, sur fing equestrian and skiing are some of the most unusual. There is something for everyone, be it on land, water, court or horse. Student-run special interest clubs cover a large variety of sports. The windsurfing, water-ski, Alpine ski, soccer, and newly formed lacrosse clubs are all very popular and active. Pepperdine provides many opportunities to improve physique and mental strength through its P.E. program. Every student has a chance to take advantage of this excellent competitive conditioning experience. -by Heidi Bernard Laurie Billes, Ph.D......Assoc. Prof, of Physical Ed.

Helpful librarians and student assistants direct students in their learning experience there. Many research papers and projects have originated from the collection of approximately 250,000 volumes available to students from the University Educational Center Libraries. Payson Library itself houses over 193,800 volumes and the School of Law Library approximately 171,000. All of these collections are available to Seaver College students. Virtually all college classes give students assignments in library research. Librarians Margaret Ahlburg, William Deese and Virginia Randolph point them in the right direction toward books, records, periodicals, pamphlets, documents and microfilm. The library also provides many quiet corners for hours of study. In the far left section, students wander up to the art gallery to muse and study or hide in the stacks to sleep. In the middle section, students write papers on tables covered with huge reference books under the eyes of assisting reference librarians. The media center in the front provides access to a microfilm collection of many newspapers and magazines, as well as a copy machine. Around the corner, while watching the waves of the Pacific, students read in front of huge panoramic windows or lis-tent to tapes of classes that the library loans out. In the back of the library, students peruse the magazines or use the copy room. The periodicals' librarian assists students searching through old magazines, kept there for research purposes. Frequent use is made of the study rooms provided for groups of students who need to study together. In one back corner, students make use of the typewriting and newspaper room; in the other, the music and curriculum lab. Finally, on the far side, students can be seen studying, outlined against the windows facing the campus. Dr. Harold Holland, director of libraries, is always looking for ways to improve the library. A computer system is being considered for the library's future. Holland and the other librarians all have faculty ranking and have obtained special educational service training. With such excellent assistance and facilities, the Pepperdine student is ensured scholastic success studying in Payson. -by Heidi Bernard Margaret Ahlberg, M.L.S William Deese, M.L.S...

For many unacquainted with the school, these three words characterize Seaver College. Indeed, a casual observer might easily mistake the bright stucco buildings perched in the Santa Monica Mountains for a resort rather than a bastion of intellect. The Spanish-style buildings with sloping roofs hardly conform to the traditional brick-and-ivy that epitomizes many colleges. The school's proximity to scenic beaches enhances this reputation. Yet, the students who go there, spending many sweaty hours in classrooms and toiling over exams find that sunseeking takes a backseat to academic pursuits. Favorable polls taken by The U.S. News and World Report, the “New York Times Index, and a survey of college presidents attest to Pepperdine University's growing stature as an academic institution. The recent U.S. News and World Report survey of college and university presidents ranked Pepperdine among the top five comprehensive liberal arts institutions west of the Mississippi, Dr. Howard White, university president, said. Determined to maintain this standing, the university recently embarked on a $100 million fundraising drive to enhance academics at Seaver. The plan entails the construction of an administration building, an art building, a student recreation 56 ACADEMICS center, a student union and a graduate and undergraduate business building on the university's 836-acre Malibu campus. Also included in the plan is the establishment of more chairmanships and professorships in each school and an increase in endowment funds for each school. This should enable us to provide a stronger academic program and provide more opportunities for research ' White said. White justified the increase in tuition from its current $235 per unit a trimester to $263 for the 1984-85 year with several comprehensive improvements to enhance Seaver academics. Foremost is the purchase of a $500,000 academic computer system to augment the mainframe computer and telecommunications system installed this year. The natural science division's nationally acclaimed biology program will also receive a greenhouse next year. Additional laboratory equipment and more funding for the London program round out the academic improvements. Despite the school's expense, Seaver boasts an 82 percent retention rate. This suggests that while it may be the sun and surf that attracts students to Seaver, it is the academics that keep them at Malibu. -by Tammy Clarke ACADEMICS 57 Administration QUALITY IN DEPARTMENT STARTS AT THE TOP It is said that the quality of a program is a reflection, of the administrator in charge, and vice versa. Wayne Wright, Pepperdine's athletic director, would probably be proud to have that statement applied to his program in Malibu. Under Wright’s administration in 1983-84, no fewer than seven Pepperdine athletic teams earned a national ranking at the Division I level at one point during their season. For a school with an enrollment of 2,500 as compared to other universities with well over 25,000 students, that is quite an achievement for the program. Wright's administration includes associate athletic directors Dr. Marv Dunphy, who doubles as head coach of the men's volleyball team, and Tim Wilhelm, a Pepperdine graduate in charge of the department's promotion. The Sports Information Director is Michael Zapolski, a senior journalism-history double major. Zapolski took over the position during the fall of 1983, replacing Greg Fritz, who took a job with a national public relations firm. The department's faculty adviser, responsible for overseeing the academic progress of student-athletes, is Dr. Warren Kilday. 60 ATHLETICS The Year in Sports PEPPERDINE ATHLETICS: LIVING THE GOOD LIFE Distinguishing the winners from the near-misses in the Pepperdine athletic department was a difficult task in 1983 84. Whereas tears fell following a successful water polo campaign, the smile remained on the faces of other coaches who experienced less successful seasons in terms of wins and losses. Water polo began the athletic campaign on a strong note, finishing with a No. 4 national ranking despite missing the NCAA tournament because of a poor showing in the Pacific Coast Athletic Conference championships. Following the last loss in a 28-6 season, coach Rick Rowland fought back the tears as he talked to a reporter, despite the fact that his club had just completed the most successful season in the sport's history at Pepperdine. Elsewhere, happiness was found in what some would consider lesser achievements. Cross country coach Greg Fritz was able to take pride in watching his program record its first win in its two-year existence. New women's volleyball coach Nina Matthies didn't appear to lose her zeal for the sport despite a dismal season. In fact, her recruiting campaign nabbed at least four top high school players that should return the program to past heights in coming years. In men's basketball, the cornerstone of the Pepperdine athletic department, the Waves' string of three straight conference championships was snapped in a disappointing 13-13 season. Nevertheless, attendance increased, the radio package was continued and coach )im Harrick succeeded in graduating all eight of the seniors on his roster. New w omen's basketball coach Ron Fortner assumed his role well after the recruiting season was over, but took a group of holdovers and two transfers well past the expectations of most ! followers of the program. Now he awaits the chance to recruit on his own. The spring sports, meanwhile, proved to be much more fruitful for the university in terms of winning percentages. Five Pepperdine spring teams earned national rankings, and at least three were in the running for the national championship of their respective sports. The men's volleyball team, despite a nearly crippling string of injuries, still found itself as the only legitimate challenger to defending champion UCLA as the season wound down. Both tennis teams, as expected, gained national prominence. The men of coach Allen Fox's team were rated third in the nation much of the year, while Gualberto Escudero's women's team vaulted from a No. 11 preseason ranking to a top-eight spot by knocking off USC at home (to end an 88-game Trojan win streak) and No. 5 Texas. The spring also had its surprises. The swim team, under the direction of Rowland, gained its first top 20 ranking with a strong NCAA championship effort that followed its first PCAA dual meet title. And in baseball, coach Dave Gorrie took an inexperienced squad that seemed destined for a rebuilding year to the top 10 level in the nation. Tears or none, all had their reasons for happiness during the 1983-84 season. 62 ATHLETICS Mark Walkup (left in photo above) and Greg Outcalt rise for a high-five after Pepper-dine's water polo team defeated Stanford for the first time in history; Kirk Kilgour (left), once an all-World volleyball player, still keeps in contact with the game as an assistant coach on the men's volleyball team; baseball coach Dave Gorrie embraces former Waves' standout Ralph Sheffield before the annual alumni game. ATHLETICS Women’s volleyball NEW COACH HOPES TO REVIVE PROGRAM It was a rare occasion during the 1983 season that first-year coach Nina Matthies could be pleased with the performance of her Pepperdine women's volleyball team. The squad won only five games all year (against 26 losses), and dropped noticeably from its previous form when it reached the NCAA tournament. The entire fault did not lie with Matthies, as she inherited the program late in the recruiting season and was unable to bring in any new players. In the growing sport of women's volleyball, the lapse was fatal. But Matthies has already taken steps to ensure that 1984 won't be a repeat of her first campaign in Malibu. Her recruiting efforts will bring four top high school players into the program, and hopes are once again high that the squad will return to national prominence. New players or no, Matthies would probably be happy to salvage one aspect from her 1983 team-courage. With losses stockpiling as the season progressed, the team never gave up. In fact, it turned in perhaps its finest performance of the season in its next to last game, a five-set win over UC Irvine. Wins and losses aside, in respect to attitude, Matthies had a quality club in 1983. On opposite page.

ATHLETICS 65 Men’s basketball WAVES WCAC DOMINANCE FINALLY COMES TO AN END uch is the price of success that once it's attained, it becomes expected, is also the tale of the Pepperdine men's basketball team in 1983-84. Success in basketball has become commonplace in Malibu in recent years. Pepperdine had won three straight West Coast Athletic Conference championships coming into the season, making three straight postseason tournament appearances in the process. Cone in 1983-84, however, were four National Basketball Association draft choices, and with them most of the offensive punch and rebounding that had turned the program into one of the finest on the west coast. Still, promise remained for the 1983-84 team. Two starters returned, along with four experienced redshirts and two highly-touted freshmen. The team opened the season with a last-second victory over S Such ► See Waves pg.69 Forward Eric White didn't play much like a freshman for the Pepperdine men's basketball team. White's shown here tipping in a rebound against the University of Missouri-Kansas City. 66 ATHLETICS Victor Anger (52) capped a four-year starting career with typical inside presence here against Gonzaga, but back injuries kept him from full effectiveness during the middle of the season. The result was agonizing for coach Jim Harrick (right), who salvaged a winning season but not a postseason tournament berth out of a frustrating year. ATHLETICS 67 Sophomore Dwayne Polee (above left) came off a redshirt season to present Malibu basketball fans with a dazzling style of fullcourt basketball, but it was senior point guard Mark Wilson (4) that dictated the Pepperdine offensive tempo.

Despite two horrendous road trips, Pepperdine still was 10-6 heading into conference play. The WCAC, though, was particularly well-balanced in 1983-84, and the Waves never did recover fully from a conference-opening loss at Santa Clara. The team finished in fourth place, and out of postseason play for the first time in four years. Now some wonder what went wrong with the basketball program, and the answer may be, simply stated, nothing that a few made shots or lucky breaks wouldn't have turned around. In the past few years, we had won some ball games that maybe we shouldn't have because we got a few breaks, jim Harrick, Waves' head coach, said. This year, we didn't get any. Harrick isn't likely to panic over one disappointing season, however. The nucleus of a solid program remains, and with some added experience and a few frontline recruits, the coach knows his club could be back at the top. Freshman Eric White, perhaps the team's most consistent player during the season, will return at one forward next year, while 6-6 redshirt Dave Brittain and 6-6 frosh Artis Jones will look to replace graduated Scott McCollum and Victor Anger. juniors Dwayne Polee and Jon Korfas will form the backcourt along with senior Grant Gonrezick, leaving Harrick at least four seasoned veterans and some talented youth. With a key recruit or two, the Waves could contend again in 1984-85. A lot of people are expecting it. ATHLETICS 69 Men’s volleyball MALIBU ROOFING CO. GOES AFTER UCLA, NATIONAL TITLE As far as Marv Dunphy knows, the magic remains in Westwood. Oh, it may no longer be found on the basketball court, but surely it still exists around the volleyball nets at UCLA. For the name in collegiate volleyball is UCLA, winners of 10 of the 14 NCAA-sponsored national championships. Al Scates is the resident Wizard these days, assuming the role of but not replacing John Wooden. In any other setting, Dunphy would be a wizard in Malibu. But the sport he coaches is volleyball, and UCLA is only 20 miles away. Instead, he contents himself with putting together the best team possible, which makes Pepperdine no worse than second best in the nation-and the only legitimate challenger to UCLA's domination. The 1984 season wasn't any different than usual, with UCLA winning the California Intercollegiate Volleyball Association title, and Pepperdine forced to work its way through an NCAA regional tournament before advancing with its neighbor to the championship bracket. Pepperdine's goal was to be at Pauley Pavilion across the net from UCLA in the national final, hoping to repeat its 1978 upset of the perennial collegiate champions. Health, however, stood to be the team's greatest obstacle. Injuries, including a pair of broken bones, kept the team from fielding its regular lineup much of the season. Freshman Matt Rigg (opposite page), shown here trying to block against UCLA, came on to play a big role for the Malibu Roofing Co. in its drive for the national tide.

ATHLETICS 71 Women’s basketball LADY WAVES ADJUST TO DIVISION I BALL The situation for the Pepperdine women's basketball team in 1983-84 was similar to that of the women's volleyball team. A new coach-Ron Fortner—was added just before the season began, meaning that the top recruits had already been taken and that a holdover group of undersized overachievers would have to carry the proverbial load. To their credit, they did well. Little was expected of the team, but it finished just under .500, and at one point had an outside shot at an at-large berth to the National Invitational Tournament. The team was led by leading scorer and re- bounder Maureen Formico, while guard Stephanie Turman and junior college transfer Anita Rogers provided speed and leadership. Fortner, meanwhile, looks to 1984-85 with understandable optimism. The coaching veteran-he previously assisted the men's program at Pepperdine on separate occasions and also had several other coaching stops before landing in Malibu again—will have a chance to bring in ballplayers designed for his program. Some new talent, combined with some courage leftover from his 1983-84 team, might be the ingredients that combine to make the women's basketball program the success at the Division I level that it was at Division II.

For the past two years, the club had been operating as an unofficial university activity, and carried no ties with Pepperdine other than using the school name and students. The funding decision, noteworthy in that by dropping the private sponsor the club receives no financial support from the university, will make it possible for the team to reapply for university charter, Pepperdine officials say. In the water, the team surfed its home meets at Zuma Beach, and was led by Cory Basso, Dave Anderson and Randy Basso. The trio combined to lead the team to a season-opening win over USC, before losing to Los Angeles Pierce College at the start of a long season. 74 ATHLETICS HJSgyWfflLJ.i11 PPPWPMPW Above left, Ric Collins battles a Zuma wave, while on the opposite page, Jon LaLanne and Cory Basso (inset) crouch through tubes.

If he did, he probably would have written the 1983-84 season off as a rebuilding year, and left it at that. Instead, he instilled confidence in a group of underclassmen that carried over to a top 10 national rating and a challenge for the Southern California Baseball Association title. Displaying the free-wheeling offense of base stealing, hit-and-run and bunting that has characterized Gorrie's style, the team raced to a 25-8 record midway through the season and was eyeing a regional tournament berth that seemed unrealistic at the season's outset. Led by 5-7 second baseman Andy Stankiewicz, a sophomore who hit six homeruns by the season's midway point, the team was scrappy on offense and tough defensively. Freshman Mike Fetters came from Hawaii to post a 7-0 record as the season entered the finishing stages. Included in those wins were decisions over Pac-10 foes Arizona State, USC and UCLA. And, despite the supposed shortcomings of experience and power, the Waves found themselves with a good shot at returning to the regionals, where they went onto finish third in the nation in 1979. It came as little surprise to Gorrie, who hadn't been listening along the way anyway. Forecasts are for analysts. Performance is the coach's measuring instrument. 76 jovtu uov« Uavei Uavei Uovtf UQVt, Uavei uiavey- On the opposite page, second baseman Andy Stankiewicz led the way for the Pepperdine baseball team in 1984, and here he led a Northridge baserunner to an out with a little help from first baseman Jon Smith.

Swimming TANKERS TAKE FIRST PCAA DUAL MEET CHAMPIONSHIP The return of Rick Rowland as coach of the swimming and diving program was marked by a Pacific Coast Athletic Association dual meet title and a top 20 rating-both firsts for a Pepperdine team. Led by a strong diving contingent, depth and an international collection of Olympic hopefuls, Pepperdine defeated UC Santa Barbara to end the Gauchos' six-year conference dual meet reign. In the conference championships, Pepperdine placed second, 50 points behind the Gauchos, but responded with a No. 19 effort at the national meet. Junior Brett Beadle and Danish freshman Peter Rhode led the team in the water, the former making his third national championships appearance and the latter shattering conference freestyle records. The divers, led by Chris Monahan and Jeff Lundeen, gave the team a strong one-two punch, and promise of a potential knockout in the future. 78 ATHLETICS On opposite page, Brett Beedle churns toward the finish, while in photo above, diver Jeff Lundeen pursues an NCAA invitation.

But on the cement hardcourts just behind the basketball fieldhouse, the men's tennis team of Allen Fox has been pounding on the door for a second title. And 1983-84 seemed like as good a year as any for Pepperdine to break through to the top. The team was rated third in the country much of the year, led by senior Jerome Jones and a host of talented underclassmen. The program has reached the point of go-between for high school standouts still intent on getting a sound educational background and the pro tour. It graduates more than the average amount of students for schools of equal standards. With Fox recruiting the top junior players in the world, there is seldom a variation in the team's quality. The program has lost at least three undergraduates to the professional tour, yet stays on top by adding top juniors like Carlos DiLaura of Peru and Ed Nagel. They come to Pepperdine for a variety of reasons, the most notable of which is Fox, who made a name for himself on the pro tour as a skilled player whose mental approach to the sport put him in the top 10 in the world. He stresses that same mental preparedness to his team, which may be just the reason that the Pepperdine program is growing into one of the nation's finest.

Forced to play three games in one day by a Pacific Coast Athletic Association tournament format, Pepperdine was routed by UC Irvine, the Waves' second loss of the day and missed out on a national tournament berth. It was an unfitting end to a season which saw Pepperdine defeat eventual national champion UC Berkeley, 5-3, in a thrilling match in Malibu. Consolation came only in the fact that the Waves were rated fourth in the final national coaches poll-ahead of four teams that advanced to the NCAA championships. The prospects for an even better 1984 are real. The Waves lost only two starters from last year's team and will add Victor Pusic, a leading scorer who redshirted in 1983. Just as promising is an initiative that would abandon the PCAA conference tournament for a double round-robin format that would favor year-long consistency instead of one-day endurance. Either way, the Waves, with goalie Vukan Ruzic and first-team All-American Mike Grier, an alternate on the 1984 U.S. Olympic team, will be back in 1984. ATHLETICS 03 Women’s tennis PEP WOMEN’S TENNIS: A WELL KEPT SECRET The best kept secret at Pepperdine in 1983-84 just might have been the women's tennis team. The ladies of coach Gualberto Escudero were almost invincible for most of a season that saw' Pepperdine snap USC's 88-game home winning streak. The Waves also defeated No. 5 Texas as they climbed from a preseason No. 11 rating to No. 7. Given a shot at a top-eight seeding in the NCAA tournament, the team had a chance at its best season ever. Escudero, a former Pepperdine tennis player, assembled an international cast in his quest for a national championship. The team's top-seed was Pam Jung, while Spain's Marisa Sanchez, Canadian-American dual citizen Carole Bertrand, and Japan's Akemi Nishiya were also among the top six. Mariana Layland, Elisa Fernandez and Jarilyn Josef rounded out a quality squad. Although all were top individual players, Escudero believed that the key to the team's success was in their camaraderie. Because the team worked well together, he said, it had improved as a unit. Nevertheless, alongside four other nationally ranked spring teams at Pepperdine, the team seemed to play in obscurity for much of the season. Accomplishment eventually overcomes all forms of competition, though, and that fact sent the team toward its rightful spot atop the women's athletic department at Pepperdine. The best kept secret on campus in 1983-84 might have been the Pepperdine women's tennis team. Marisa Sanchez (opposite page) came on strong for the Waves by season's end, while Elisa Fernandez (inset) was perhaps the team's steadiest player.

The Pepperdine cross country program is a perfect example. In only its second year of existence since its formation by coach Greg Fritz, the infant program began to take steps. The team won the first dual meet in its brief history, and set another precedent by hosting the first cross country meet ever held on the Malibu campus. That meet will forever be remembered, not only for the ground it broke but for the fact that one Pepperdine runner got lost on his home turf to add to the problems brought on by a demanding, hilly course. In addition, the harriers moved out of the Pacific Coast Athletic Association cellar with a seventh-place finish at the conference championships at St. Mary's College of Moraga. The accomplishments were all made by nonscholarship athletes, as the program is not allowed any grants-in-aid by the athletic department at this time. The feats do not necessarily suggest a national powerhouse has been started, but the baby had to crawl before it could walk. And who knows how long it took the kid to run a 10K?

A lacrosse club was formed, and in its infant stage was manned by a group of students who had never played the sport before. It was quite a task for coach Brian Nichols to handle, but by season's end, the payoff had been reached. When the team won its first game, 6-4, over Riverside, the fruits of its labor had been justified The team was sponsored as a university club, but as such received no financial assistance from the school. Playing on the team, though, gave students a chance to become major college athletes, even if it was on an unofficial basis as far as the NCAA was concerned. The team got off to a quick start in its opener against UC Davis, scoring two goals in the first two minutes before losing. The expected losses followed, but to the team's credit, most of the games were competitive. And despite a lack of training, conditioning and experience, the club got that elusive first win in its first season and established groundwork for the future.

Working together as a cohesive team during the 1983-84 school year, SGA provided Seaver College students with a wide variety of activities and opportunities to get involved. Throughout the year, the group of officers also worked to build a bridge between student and administrative relations. SGA held various faculty-student events and drafted resolutions in a conscientious manner, taking into consideration both the students' and administration's viewpoints. Under the direction of president Liz Whatley, SGA worked diligently toward its goal to provide a series of well-rounded activities for students. Several successful ice cream socials, concerts by well-known bands and weekly movies were just a few of the many SGA-sponsored events. The initiation this year of the Student Series, a combined package of entertainment vouchers, was another major accomplishment for the SGA. We are here to serve the students, and we encourage student input, Whatley, a senior public relations major, said. To further serve the students, the SGA senate met every Tuesday night to discuss activities and to vote on resolutions prepared by the various officers for the students' welfare. The senate's concern for the students was evidenced in the passage of resolutions on such issues as an alternative meal plan for dorm residents, a change in the add drop fee, the re- pening of a 24-hour study room and mail-in registration. It's our job to make the administration aware of what the students want, Whatley said. Although uncertain regarding how much influence SGA has with the administration, Whatley suggested that efforts to create a good working relationship have been a step in the right direction'' toward SGA's second goal of establishing a good rapport with the administration. Being a female SGA president didn't intimidate Whatley. Whatley felt she was respected by Pepper-dine's administration. I was treated just like any other president, Whatley said. The entire administration supported me. According to Whatley, The SGA administration works together as a team. Assisting Whatley in leading this team were the other members of the executive board: vice president David Booker, treasurer Mark Rychlik and secretary Laurie Holt. Whatley praised her staff, saying, Dave was always there when I needed him. He was a tremendous help. Mark always cheered me up, and our secretary Laurie Holt was so encouraging. By emphasizing an open-door office policy, the SGA provided Seaver College students with a caring attitude toward improving campus policies and activities. -by Rowen Monroe and Iris Vokoi Photos from the left: SGA president Liz Whatley and vice president Dave Booker preside over a meeting.

Just six years after Dr. Ron Whittaker initiated the program, TV 3 has established itself as one of the top student television stations in the state. As proof of an outstanding year, TV 3 left the California Intercollegiate Press Association competition with three first place and one second awards. Malibu Magazine won best news magazine and second place in the news magazine category. The staff also snagged the best sports story and best public service announcement honors. Senior broadcast major and TV 3 staffer Jack Cannon said that teamwork plays a crucial role in television production. Everybody supported each other this year, Cannon said. According to Whittaker TV 3 continued to grow during 1983 84 and broadcasting is now the second largest major on campus having only about 250 less students than the business program. However, Cannon and Whittaker agree that the improvements in 1983-84 were measured in quality not quantity. I think that our commitment to quality paid off and will continue to show in the years to come. Cannon said. Besides being a year of accomplishment, 1983-84 was a year of change at TV 3. Beginning next September TV 3 will broadcast on Malibu Cable Systems. Programming will be available to homes throughout Malibu with the capability for 24 hour a day broadcasts. For Whittaker the new broadcast capability represents the fruits of four years of dedication to this goal. We signed a contract with Malibu Cable that should mark the beginning of a whole new era for the Pepperdine television broadcasting program, Whittaker said. Ironically, Whittaker will relinquish his responsibilities as head of the television broadcasting program beginning next fall. I will be devoting my time to teaching, research and writing, he said. -by Dave McCombs 104 ACTIVITIES TV 3 expands into Malibu community Combining the talents of business, journalism broadcast and drama majors has given KMBU, Pep perdine University's radio station, the ability to serve varied needs and interests of the Pepperdine and Malibu communities. One thing I think some students here don't realize is that there are opportunities here (at KMBU) for nearly every major or career field, Lori Szybist, KMBU program director, said. During the 1983 84 school year KMBU expanded into areas it had never covered before and changed its profile as a campus radio station. Working with the athletic department, KMBU forged an agreement with KFOX and KCOE radio to broadcast Wave's basketball games to be engineered and produced by the KMBU staff. This arrangement allowed the KMBU staff to achieve exposure to the massive Los Angeles radio audience. With expansion comes change and KMBU saw a number of changes take place in the past year. The news department was reorganized to include a newsroom writing staff that works with broadcasters in preparing news stories. The news-minute, 60 seconds of headline news, was added to each hour of programming. Community Close-Up and Music Alternative, two special programs added an in-depth perspective to the straight news programs. Sundays KMBU featured 12 hours of Christian programming consisting of Christian contemporary music and a 10 minute sermonette featuring student views on contemporary issues. Tune-wise KMBU modified its format to adult contemporary. Lionel Ritchie, Culture Club, The Beatles and the Eurythmics are just a few of the most often played groups on the new format. -by Dave McCombs Photo above: (front row) Ghia Geisel, Steve Melonas, Kristin Spamer, Jenifer Openshaw, Brenda Bos, Tom Miller and April Kelly; (2nd row) John Haffner, Andy Weigler, Kris Glaser, Heidi Fisher, Gerardo Marti, Linda Nimchek, Diane Borroel, Ron Sellers, Laurie Holt, and Steve Getty; (back row) Edgar Gonzalez, J.T.

The Graphic. ACTIVITIES 107 inA ACTIVITIES therefore allowed a good deal of time to develop their skills. This is combined with the students' positive professional attitude and pride of working together creatively, Ames said. Aside from receiving awards, two important things have been accomplished in 1983-84, according to Dr. Joseph Webb, professor of journalism. The first is that the range of the publications has been expand- increased gradually from eight pages to a 20-page paper this year. Ames cited the fall trimester's staff as producing the most (pages) ever for a publication that began in 1937. Also increasing in size, Oasis magazine, which had been an annual publication, became bi-annual in 1983-84 and Impressions yearbook continued to serve as an important journalistic vehicle. By expanding the publications, more of the 60-70 students in the program are given a chance to gain In the past four years.

The Young Democrats have certainly made a strong impact upon the political scene here at Seaver College. Henry Carter, president of the Young Democrats, has brought key issues to the forefront. I believe that college students have a right to get involved with the decision-making process. The question of nuclear proliferation, women's rights, solving high unemployment, and ensuring a high level of education for all age groups are questions that have to be faced. Democrat outings included trips to stimulating political movies such as The Right Stuff and Testament and mixers that introduced students to the social side of politics. Carter, the club's president, took responsibility for maintaining an interest in the political group. Young Democrats at the university attended several important political events. On December 5, Students for a Better America hosted an important debate featuring student Democrats from various universities. Several members of the Young Democrats from various local institutions attended a January conference on leadership at Seaver College. According to Carter, The 1983-84 school year proved to be an exciting one for the Pepperdine Young Democrats as they came to life in an election year. -by Rowen Monroe Photo above: Dan Rystrom, Regina Ackerman, Henry Carter, Dan Lareva, Dawn Ortiz, Ernie Mantes.

C llege Republicans are progressively becoming me e actively involved not only in campus and com-mi lity activities, but in state and national campaigns veil. Ir the past, the university’s College Republican Cli ) has been involved in political campaigns and ha; had several guest speakers on campus to ad-dr( ss pertinent and controversial topics which will be a r ajor part of the Republican Party platform. T le club's social activities include receptions for st speakers, progressive dinners, attendance at dinners for the Republican Party and the versity and the club's own informal mixers. 1 le College Republican membership exceeds 90 ve members making it one of the largest nberships for College Republican clubs within the e. I ie club plans to hold many political events such oter registration on campus, political debates on campus, a political awareness week including a mock presidential election and a forum of guest speakers including former Lieutenant Governor Mike Curb, Congressman David Dreier and Los Angeles County supervisors Mike Antonovich and Deane Dana. Political involvement needs to originate now because the decisions being made today affect our present and future lives. As individuals, our responsibility is to take an active part in the decision-making process of the future. This will afford us an opportunity to see our goals of making Once More in '84 a reality. -Brian Cesario Photo above (front row) Linda Koch, Joey Fuschetti, Patsy Stewart, Tracey Toth, Pam Medders and Lisa Melvedt; (back row) John Hall, Holly Clair, Amy Scearce, Jeff Maloney, Perry Webster, Donna Samluck, Brian Cesaario and Todd Schnit-zius. Pepperdine's Students for a Better America launched its organization on the Malibu campus in the early part of Autumn 1983. From that point on, PSBA saw membership rise rapidly as students embraced the club's “non-partisan, political education goals and commitments. PSBA sponsored a Great Debate involving College Republicans and Young Democrats in November 1983. Pepperdine, UCLA and USC debated topics such as arms control, domestic issues and the environment. During the year, PSBA co-sponsored different senators such as Gary Hart and Tom McClintock. Wrapping up the year was a long-anticipated PSBA program, Perspectives on Peace: an International Forum. Delegates from several different countries talked about improving world peace. PSBA is a non-partisan, non-profit organization dedicated to the political education of the student. This is what the club actively sought to do in 1984, and will continue to strive for in the future. -by Bill High Photos above from left: (front row) Bill High, MaryCarolyn Stewart, Daniel Rystrum, Amy Branch, Chet Beiler; (second row) Mitch Disney, Art Zepeda, Mike Lacorte, Bob Perrin, Dave Leaser, Bruce Kahl; Amy Branch and Bill High taking a well earned break. Combining an investment in the future, a recollection with the past and concern with the present, the Student Alumni Association (SAA) continued to establish itself as an increasingly visible liaison between Seaver students and Pepperdine University's parent Alumni Association. Key to the organization's growth has been its efforts geared toward building stronger ties between itself and the student body. One way in which the organization has done this is through its annual Orphan Retreat Weekend. Orphans from Hillview Acres Orphanage visited Pepperdine and were hosted by on-campus students. The increased student response to this year's retreat reflected its growing popularity, a trend that has made it SAA's most noteworthy event. Fundraising is an integral part of SAA's activities. Through its annual phone-a-thon SAA raised over $10 thousand for the third consecutive year-money which will be used for financial aid in the form of scholarships and grants. SAA closed out its year with the second of its trimester-ending final survival kits drives. Final survival kits are care packages with snacks and toys assembled by SAA to ease the pressures of finals.

Pepperdine Ad Club is a college chapter of the American Advertising Federation (AAF). The primary objective of the Ad Club is to encourage young people to enter advertising as a career and to enhance the quality of advertising education, thus strengthening the skills of future advertising practitioners. The Club offerred its members numerous benefits in 1984. Each person received the monthly Communicator, a newsletter of the AAF. In addition, the Ad Club published Ad Lines, a bi-monthly newsletter. Senior members participate in the AAF job Clearing which helps advertising students obtain employment. The publication contains abbreviated resumes of AAF College Chapter seniors. Alpha Delta Sigma Honorary Society is another service provided through Ad Club membership. The honor society was formed to recognize outstanding academic achievements among advertising students. Since its initiation in the spring of 1976, students nominated by their faculty advisers have been selected by division leaders to the only national honorary society for advertising students. As an AAF organization, the Ad Club offered unlimited experience, opportunity and enjoyment to more than 50 members in 1984. -by Dodie Blair Photo above: (front row) Karen Smith, Merrideth Webber, Susie Root; (2nd Row) Susan Welsh, Celia Demg, Kerry Graffy, Meridee Alter; (3rd row) Dr. Jeff Warr.

Because public relations opportunities are vastly multiplying, the Public Relations Student Society of America was created to prepare college students for a successful career in the field of public relations. According to Jackie Smith, president of the Pepperdine apter, PRSSA gives students the opportunity to ex-l rience professionalism while still in school. tubers are given national and local exposure t; ough special conferences and professional makers. PRSSA promotes a better understanding of the ofessional world of public relations, Smith stated. n October four PRSSA chapter members attended e 8th annual PRSSA National Conference in New York ity. Smith was joined by board members Lori Bartok, ly Campos and Tessy Stadler for four days of minars, luncheons and general sessions. 'It was a good place to make contacts and pass round my resume Bartok said. Representatives :)m some of the top public relations firms in the country like Hill and Knowlton and Burson Marsteller were there. At the conference, the chapter submitted a paper nominating Dr. Fred L. Casmir for the best adviser at the National Award competition. Also in October, PRSSA members attended the Los Angeles premiere of Show Your Spirit and hosted an alumni dinner to support their social activities. PRSSA's goal is a more solid foundation for the group. The club now has between 70-80 members. In the last three to five years Casmir cites a greater feeling of purpose in the program, due mainly to the growth of student maturity. For Casmir, public relations combines professionalism with commitment and involvement. As a preprofessional organization, Casmir feels that PRSSA is an important preparatory step toward becoming active in the P.R. profession. -by Rowen Monroe Photo above: (front row) Jo Lieberman, Lori Bartok, Tessy Stadler, Jennifer Herrera, Michelle Barona; (back row) Davor Gjerasik, Charlie Hrvatin, Amy Montgomery, Jackie Smith, and Ray Campos. Pepperdine's Cheeerleading squad promoted team spirit and student participation in the university's athletic program. The squad attended all major athletic events at home and away during the 1983-84 season. This was the second year that Pepperdine's squad included male members. It is evident that this will become a tradition at Pepperdine which will be long lasting ' squad member Leo Marchetti said. The squad spent many hours perfecting routines. This was obvious by its performance at half-time. Many people commented that the squad adds a tremendous touch to the spirit of the game, Marchetti added. Moreover, the squad may help bring people to more of the games. -by Chriss Bure Photo above: The squad during a halftime performance. Inset: Two cheerleaders showing their spirit.

ACTIVITIES 117 Perhaps the most interesting part of the Zetas' act was Amy Branch's costumes which won an award for the group in addition to its award for set design. Another corner of the world was featured after the intermission. The Theta Alpha Phi Sorority and Phi Zeta Chi Fraternity and Friends took the stage. The group won the sweepstakes award for its adaptations of American songs New York, New York, Summer Nights and One (from A Chorus Line ) into an Egyptian theme. The Nu Independents were the final group to perform. With talented musical direction by Michael Downing, the Nu's won the musical award.

There are no national fraternities or sororities permitted, so every group is an original, existing only on the Malibu campus. Each has its own individual reputation and traditions to uphold. One thing all of these groups have in common is a membership that thrives on involvement. The fraternities and sororities are all highly active on campus and provide a valuable service to the university and its students. Every trimester these groups offer numerous activities for both their members and the student population at large. This fall, the Delta Tau Omega sorority sponsored Moonlight Harvest, an all-school formal dance. The Lambda Omega Sigma fraternity helped over the summer to install shelves in all the dormitory L-closets. During the fall, it sponsored an old-fashioned steak night for the entire school. Theta Alpha Phi, another sorority on campus, held an allschool mother daughter luncheon that included a fashion show by Encore, a local clothing store. Several of the Creek organizations sponsored needy children and participated in service activities for the community. And all of the groups took part in the school's annual Songfest competition. In addition to these activities, the groups sponsored many other events reserved for participation by their members. So, as it's obvious to see from all they do, the Greeks at Pepperdine are definitely going strong. -by Chriss Bures ___-aaggggggggaagSBStBamaiaaaasaBIlaufiteBj otos clockwise from left: Sigma Epsilon pledges enduring ell week activities; Theta Alpha Phi actives and alumni hav-; a great time at the annual Christmas formal; Phi Zeta Chi •mbers in a rowdy mood; Delta Tau Omega pledges posing th Dr. David Davenport; Lambda Omega Sigma members lertaining the crowd during the fall steakhouse. :::::::::::::: One banner year seemed to follow another for Phi Zeta Chi. The highlight of the 1983-84 academic year was the re-instatement of the charter with Pepper-dine University. In 1984, the fraternity's primary service projects included painting over graffiti on the Malibu Canyon tunnel and a Christmas party for underprivileged Los Angeles youths. Phi Chis aided Malibu residents during the storms by sandbagging beachfront homes. Social activities included numerous dances and formal events and participation in Songfest with Theta Alpha Phi sorority. Phi Chi members participated in numerous other activities including student government and varsity athletics. The annual Little Sister program was a great success, earning an all-time membership high of 48 Pepperdine girls. The fall pledge class was composed of well-rounded school and civic leaders. Pledges did volunteer work at the Malibu Flea Market and the Malibu Community Center. The retirement of the fraternity's adviser, Dr. Paul Rothchild, paved the way for a new pair: Dr. Mark Mallinger from the busines administration department and Dr. Gary Galles from the economics department. Through the combined efforts of its advisers, current president Dave T. Aitchison and dedicated members, Phi Zeta Chi lived up to its award winning reputation. -by Mike DeLaHousaye Photo above: (front row) Mike DeLaHousaye, Rob Rowan, Drew Carlson, Angelo Gulotti, Moki, Gardner Martin; (second row) Rick Kay, Jeff Moss, Larry Ramirez, Paul Boulange ; (third row) David Aitchison, Jim Evans, Cameron Trotter, Jim Regitz, Glen Freter, Greg Combs, Jim Evans, John Allard, Roger Schwinier, Wade Watson; (fourth row) Kevin Luskin, Chris Christianson, Harry Braun, Jeff Fulmer, Chris Baker. 122 ACTIVITIES We’re the Theta Alpha Phi Girls We're the students you saw clustered around the fountain laughing between classes.

ACTIVITIES 123 With the growing number of students at Pepper-dine and the diversity of their interests in mind, it became apparent in 1983 that it was time for Seaver College to gain yet another fraternity. In late October, the charter for Lambda Omega Sigma was approved and the new frat on campus was born. The project began over a year ago when Pepper-dine alumnus Bruce Calvin began investigating the value of a service-oriented fraternity on the Seaver campus. Through president Kevin Wilson's efforts, a constitution was ratified by the 22 charter members. The Lambdas set forth to accomplish the goals outlined in their constitution, particularly servicing Pepperdine and the Malibu community. The Creek letters Lambda, Omega and Sigma are in fact the last three letters of the Greek word thoulos which means servant'. Under the guidance of Wilson and faculty sponsor Dr. Don Thompson, Lambda Omega Sigma participated in several service projects during the year including work with the City of Hope and fundraising for kidney dialysis patients. In its first year on campus, Lambda Omega Sigma remained committed to breaking the Animal House fraternity mold and to upholding the ideals of the university. In strict harmony with the goals of the organization, Lambda Omega Sigma strove for academic excellence within the membership and the college body. In the firm belief that high academic standards reflect the motivation and potential of a student, Lambda pledges must have a 2.5 GPA at the time ‘ they pledge. Thereafter, a 2.75 GPA must be maintained to remain active in the group. Study sessions and tutoring among the members raised academic standards and fostered a sense of brotherhood and concern. Lambda Omega Sigma planned to be an important influence upon Greek organizations at Pepperdine and a dynamic, recognizable force on the Seaver College campus. —by Kevin Wilson Photo above: (front row) Ron Crawford, Steve Jordan, Mike Williams, and Kevin Wilson; (row 2) Troy Stegenga, Jim Sook, John Reed, Eugene LeDuff, Sam Schmidt, Tim Lewis, and David Soderquist; (back row) Ian Marksbury, Ron Locklear, and Alan Hall. Diversity, devotion and a desire to relish friendships as sisters through a college career typify members of Delta Tau Omega Sorority. Pink ribbons and bows still symbolize the 40 member sorority that serves the student body and community in a variety of ways. The annual 'Moonlight Harvest dance was again a sell-out event as the sorority continued hosting the traditional girl-ask-guy formal dinner dance. Deltas were homecoming hostesses as Delta sister Jackie Smith was named Homecoming Queen in this year's ceremony. Financial support was continued for a sponsored child overseas. No matter how extroverted or shy, active or inactive, blonde or brunette, Deltas are a living example of a diversified organization whose foundation is built upon friendship, honesty and a love of life. —by Kelli Fast Photo above: (front row) Traci Reitz, Heidi Heiklmyer, Tania Shetabi, Holly House, Helen Brenshava; (second row) Kelly McIntyre, Susie Graham, Gail Jones, Jeannine Spiner, Becky Baird, Kelli Fast, Jackie Smith, Dana Sheehan, Melinda Parker; (third row) Sue Constuble, Karen Brown, Heidi Bernard, Margy Sperry, Michelle Barona, Dierdre Hamilton, Liz Whatley, Marci Diamond.

Tau Rho Sigma fraternity is one of Seaver's most service-oriented fraternities. The members of Tau Rho are intent upon making friends with a variety of people and contributing services to the university and the Malibu community. Tau Rho's number one obligation is to God, and members strongly uphold Christian values and life from a Christian standpoint. Rush activities include car washes and a prayer breakfast. Members are also expected to participate in various bible studies to unite social and spiritual lives. . .

T PZ Zeta Kappa Sorority was chartered in 1938 on Pep-perdine's Los Angeles campus and was rechartered after the university's transition to Malibu. Zeta Kappa is a social-service sorority with a contemporary image and a traditional background. According to Barbara Booth, executive director of Zeta Kappa Alumnae Association, the sorority has a history of being the most selective and prestigious or campus. Its constitution requires that there be no more than 30 members, each maintaining a 2.5 gr ide point average. Some of the highlights of this year's activities inch ded the initiation of Honorary Member Mrs. G( orge Pepperdine at the sorority's annual Alumnae-A( :ive celebration. The Zetas also had a mother-da jghter luncheon at Malibu's Baja Cantina, ex-ch inges with fraternities from Pepperdine and other cc leges and a holiday Christmas Bash at the Be naventure Hotel. ctivities include several service projects th oughout the year. In November the Zetas par-tic pated in a Dream Auction sponsored by the City ol Hope. Along with members of Lambda Omega Si ma they took bids for the phone-a-thon in Beverly Is. The proceeds went to cancer research. Am- boline, a child from India, was adopted by the soror-tiy in 1980, and is partly supported by the group. The Zetas also try to make time for faculty and administrators and hold a faculty dinner annually. This year's theme was a celebration of the Chinese New Year and was held at the home of Dr. Gerry McCormack.-----McCormack is the sorority's adviser and a Zeta Kappa alumna from the Los Angeles campus. Before the school year ended the Zetas had plans for a Palm Springs weekend and a trip to Tahoe after finals. In all these functions, and in their lives, the Zetas emphasize leadership skills and encourage a goal oriented attitude, making their college experience a fulfilling one. -by MaryCarolyn Stewart Photo above: (front row) Patty Grill, Tina, Donna De Leon, Mary Carolyn Stewart, Lori Zumwalt, Leslie Wynn; (second row) Anne Makofsky, Janice Herlacher, Amy Branch, Carole Mayo, Becky Klein; (third row) Gina Maluccio, Julie Conway, Kelly Me Barron, Shannon Me Barron, Karen Millet; (fourth row) Jennifer Me Cabe, Janae Addy, Jonna Spathe, Ann Mendenhall, Laureen Hubbard, Patsy Stewart. ACTIVITIES 127 Sig Eps celebrate anniversary The Sigma Epsilon fraternity celebrated its tenth anniversary at the Malibu campus in 1984. Seventeen new members were added this year during Rush bringing total membership to more than 30. As in past years, the Sig Eps (as Seaver students know them) were very active in the university's intramurals program. The fraternity took second place in football and went to the finals in softball. Sigma Epsilon had a number of social events and road trips. These included a ski trip, a bowling tournament and numerous parties and dances. The fraternity ended the year with its annual golf tournament held in Rancho Bernardo. _______________________________________________-by Kent Bulza Photo above; (front row) Matt Gillig; (second row) jim Bretado, Dave Mills, Miguel Hidalgo; (third row) Scott Harrison, Jon Murphy, Dave Fischer, Rob Crosby, Gary ‘Toad Beatty, Jerry Ristrom, Pat Sullivan, Randy Lee; (fourth row) Trent Jewell, Greg Porter, Robert Katch, Mike Pet-terson, Pete Peterson, Kevin Hoban, Todd Bentjen, Kurt Slingsby (fifth row) Ken Yeck, Robert Beal, Vince Ortuso, Kent Bulza.

'30 ACTIVr liiii Intramurals has developed into one of Pepperdine's most popular student activities. Byron Hemingway, director of intramurals, said, “The primary purpose of jintramurals is to serve the student. Despite the hectic student schedule, the intramural staff continues to work hard to provide healthy activities. “The intramural staff conducts programs v. hich reflect the needs and interests of students, cording to Hemingway. A wide variety of activities • continuously offered to Seaver College students i the university community, such as volleyball, -ketball, football, ping-pong, tennis, softball, video irnaments,racquetball and backgammon. Our ll is to reach everyone, said Hemingway, well-balanced array of leisure sports and com-itive sports activities were planned including off-lpus trips to football, basketball and baseball les, game shows, museums and Southern Califor-amusement parks. When the student needs a break from studies, he should remember one slogan: Give academics your mind; intramurals wants your body. Craig Alter, a senior business major, said, I enjoy the competition intramurals provides because it is challenging and it gives me a break from studies. A Banquet of Champions was held in honor of more than 25 Intramural Champions who competed throughout the school year. Awards were presented to the various champions - by Rowen Monroe Photo, opposite page: Pepperdine students compete in Seavers intramurals basketball games.

ACTIVITIES 131 I don't ever intend to retire in the sense of just sitting around and doing nothing, waiting to see when they're going to haul me out.'' Dr. Howard White by Parris Ward Since 1958 his work and dedication have helped shape a small, little known West Coast college into a widely recognized university. After retirement in April 1985, Dr. Howard White, president of Pepperdine University, plans to remain involved in the school as long as he is able. When I leave the presidency, I expect to remain a member of the Board of Regents, White said. White said he would also like to continue supporting the university in informal ways, such as assisting in development work. Recently White bought a condominium on campus for his retirement. I want to live on campus, White said. I want to be close so if I want to I can go down to the library or to a ball game or a music program. White said he also has two or three writing projects he would like to pursue. I don't ever intend to retire in the sense of just sitting around and doing nothing, waiting to see when they're going to haul me out, he said. I will be busy with something as long as I'm able to do anything. Looking back at his 25-year career at Pepperdine, White said he thinks that today's students are among the best the university has ever produced. I really think that the students we have now are the finest in every way that I have ever known, White said. They have met the highest academic standards we've ever had. They are the most gracious and the most friendly I've ever seen. I have always thought that the students at Pepperdine were very special, White added. I have been on accreditation teams at many universities and colleges, but I've always felt— and that may just be bias on my part-that compared with other places Pepperdine students have generally been more respectful, more courteous and seem to have a more positive attitude than I've found in so many other places. White remarked that Pepper- dine has always turned out good graduates since George Pepperdine endowed it in 1937. At that time it was a school that was unrenowned. White said he has seen it grow to a school that is widely recognized as one of the quality institutions of America. White cited a recent article in U.S. News and World Report that polled college presidents across the country regarding which institutions gave the best baccalaureate degrees. Pepperdine was rated fourth of schools of its kind, west of the Mississippi. For a school our age that is an awfully high rating, White stated. To have presidents vote us as one of the top institutions of our kind is really an honor. Pepperdine was also included in the New York Times list of the 250 best and most interesting schools in America, White said. I think Pepperdine has been a good school all the while but I think we have greatly improved academic quality, White said. 134 ADMINISTRATION it 10 Dr. Howard A.

In 1970 he was promoted to executive vice president and in 1978 he was named president. Pepperdine has helped me to grow a great deal as a person, and I'm still growing as a person, White said. Pepperdine has helped me to have a greater appreciation than I had previously had for people of different backgrounds and different cultures. I know it's trite and such a cliche to say, but I think the most important thing I can tell students, is in looking to their future, I encourage them to think of themselves as total persons, rather than pursuing narrow, limited goals. I think all of our lives we must seek to develop intellectually -read good books and go to cultural events that help us to expand our knowledge and our sense of aesthetics. White thinks young people should also be concerned with spiritual values. While people are young they should ask themselves, Who am I? and 'What's the purpose of all of this?' Some will find their answers in religion and some will find them elsewhere. ADMINISTRATION 135 l---oug Plank, who is in charge of Pepperdine University's Alumni Relations office, embodies many of the aspects that characterize Pepperdine alumni. The graduate administrates a five-man staff, manages a $200,000 budget and coordinates alumni relations with several older, key personnel in the university structure. Functions of the alumni office include seeking donations from the former students, writing publications tailored for the graduates and organizing social gatherings. The primary purpose of alumni offices at many universities is to garner funds from alumni, but Plank points out that Pepperdine alumni contribute less than 2 percent of the university's budget. The area of alumni contributions is an area which Plank knows is in need of improvement and candidly admitted that the university has not made all the effort that it could in this direction. “If you look at the great educational institutions and their progress, a lot o it is directly related to the support of the alumni, Plank said. “It helps the status of their degree to be involved in promoting the school. As an institution what we do—what we represent-places more value on ALUMNI ASSOCIATION 136 ADMINISTRATION ir u th ir degree, so with time that d gree should always get better at d better. lumni participation doesn't e d with donations.

Most likely they were the students cheering loudest at the basketball games or the freshmen dressed in costume during festivities or perhaps they were the juniors rehearsing long hours for Songfest. Plank described the alumni as enthusiastic people continuing the interest in the university that they began as students. The campus, just like people, has character, Plank said. They're (alumni) excited about the new campus and they share the same vision as the university. —by Dwayne Moring Photo above: The 1984 alumni baseball game involves as much action as the college games.

ADMINISTRATION 137 BOARD of REGFMTQ I homas Bost, Pepperdine University's chairman of the Board of Regents, joined the Board in 1974. His interest increased rapidly as did his power within Pepperdine's governing body. The year he joined the Board of Regents, he was elected its secretary. I view it (Pepperdine) as a really unique prospect. It's a very exciting school, and it's exciting and rewarding to be involved, Bost said. Pepperdine is an innovator. It's entrepreneurial in the way it approaches things. It's always try- ing something new, and the Malibu campus gives it an air of excitement. As chairman, Bost oversees the meeting the Board holds four times a year as well as those of the Executive Board, which meets monthly. Because the Board consists of 40 members, the Executive Board comprising 11 members was established to settle business arising when the Board is not in session. The Executive Board members are chosen by the Board of Regents and are authorized by it to make decisions when the board does not meet. 'There are so many things that are happening up at Pepperdine, that it's necessary to make more meetings. But it would be impractical to have a Board meeting every month. Some have to travel great distances for them, Bost said. Usually meeting in (fast's downtown office, the Executive Board makes the same kind of decisions as the full Board. It runs the whole gamut—increases in salaries, major capital improvements like building i p be dings, business transactions an I personnel transactions, he said. le Board sets overall general pc cy and makes general deci-$i is, then delegates the ai iprity to the administrators of °epperdine. It doesn't run th school on a day-to-day b: is, Bost said. s a businessman, it's not sur-pr mg that Bost should think th t Pepperdine's budgeting pr cess is an interesting pro-ce s. Although Pepperdine is in sc md financial ground, careful m nagement has really helped it, he pointed out. Even so, Bost said the Board is especially sensitive when dealing with increases in student tuition and faculty salaries. We're very conscious of the burdens on students. We're concerned with middle income and low income families. I feel somehow they might be squeezed out of the education system, Bost said. Sometimes middle income families think they don't qualify for anything in particular as far as financial aid. We re very sensitive to that. Bost further noted that faculty salaries have been lifted to respectable levels in recent years. Pepperdine was in the lowest in five faculty pay levels. We've catapulted over many universities. The Board of Regents makes important decisions affecting the future of the entire university. -by Aliza Heymann Photo above: The Board of Regents Room.

It was! He had been accepted by his dream school and yet he knew his acceptance as well as his excitement was in vain. Pepperdine was a financial im- possibility for his family. He dejectedly put the envelope aside and prepared to register for a less expensive college. The next evening he received a call from Pepperdine offering financial assistance. The financial aid did in tact materialize. The prospect of attending Pepper- dine became a reality. The fact of the matter is simple. Without financial aid Pepperdine would spell impossible for a great many students. The financial aid department at Pepperdine offers relief to people who financially would be unable to attend. 140 ADMINISTRATION The man who makes every effort to assist students in their enrollment is Israel Rodriquez, head of Pepperdine's financial aid department. The best way to assist sh dents is to provide them with information, assist them with th ir problems and find solu-tic ns to those problems ' the ur issuming Rodriguez said. ith my background in ps chology I can help students w h personal problems as well as inancial problems. When a student comes into m office I look at him as a per-so i with both strengths and w aknesses. Some weaknesses ca i be improved and it's a cf illenge for me to try and h p with them. With support and guidance, the student can overcome his weaknesses for a strong total personality. Solving students' problems is only one aspect of a job that encompasses many tasks. In an office where $10.2 million are funneled through to 65 percent of the student population at Pepperdine every year, other problems come into the picture. But Rodriguez handles these problems as a skilled craftsman would: one at a time. In the financial aid business it is important to work with the students on a one-to-one basis, he asserted. In order to do this job right you can't look at the students as a number or a commodity. Rodriguez does not run a one- man department, however, and he is quick to point out the qualities of his staff. This is a very stable office, he said, Most of the people have been here for five to 10 years. I don't look at this as a job; I look at it as a way of living ' Rodriguez said, It's a way of satisfying personal goals ... to show students that education is possible. -by Jake McGowan and Melissa McKinstry Photo above: The chief commodity in financial aid.

ADMINISTRATION 141 • INI BOOKSTORE A ssistant manager of the Seaver College Bookstore, Masoud Mahmoud's first concern is for the customer. Our objectives are to provide the best service for our customers and to run the bookstore as professionally as possible, he said proudly. I'm looking forward to making the bookstore better and better every day, he said as he gazed around the store. The mistakes we've made in the past we ll try to avoid. One improvement in the bookstore that Mahmoud helped institute was the leasing of the store to United College Bookstore Company (UCB), an dUt East Coast company that has recently moved West and now runs the Seaver Bookstore for the school, according to Mahmoud. The school decided to change over since this is UCB's business, Mahmoud said. Because of this, they're able to provide the bookstore's customers with better service. In addition to providing better service, Mahmoud, who is the only employee who has worked under both the former Pepper-dine management and UCB, wants to keep the bookstore prices down. He says that UCB's large volume of business allows it to get cheaper prices on books. Mahmoud obviously knows what is going on in the store. He can recite off the top of his head what inventory the store has in stock. He can also easily answer questions that store clerks have about any of a number of topics, such as refunds or the arrangement of display items. Mahmoud looks to the future with optimism and interest and is not afraid to try innovative ideas in the bookstore. One new concept of how to alleviate the mad rush for books at the start of each new trimester is to have students indicate what books they need or a computer printout sheet and 142 ADMINISTRATION 1 have a student worker get those books from the storeroom. This differs from the old system, in which the books were out on the shelves for students to choose from. This is the first year for the new system, according to Mahmoud, and Seaver is one of the first schools to institute such a change. The new concept, which was developed by UCB and implemented by Mahmoud and his staff, was very successful. We got through the last book rush (at the start of the winter tr mester) with the whole pro-o ss-selecting books, getting c ecks approved, paying for b )oks-taking not more than 10 n mutes per student on the a erage, said Mahmoud proudly This new concept is just one e ample of how Seaver's b okstore is being used as a t- sting ground for new products a id services. We're selected by t: e home office (of UCB) to try s mething new, Mahmoud said e citedly. If it's successful, they t it elsewhere. Another example of a product or concept being tested is the new computer section in the bookstore. This section contains guides to home computers and programming books for all different models. Mahmoud's desire to see that the university community is satisfactorily served by the bookstore extends to all areas, including inventory. We (UCB) always base a store's inventory on its location and what kind of people it serves, he said. For example, Pepperdine will host the 1984 Olympic water polo competi-tion-as a result, we will be carrying more water polo and Olympic clothes than other stores. The Olympics may be affecting the store's inventory, but the Summer Games will not have any affect on its hours. We don't go by the school calendar, Mahmoud said, indicating that the bookstore is basically a year-round operation. The bookstore is open from 8:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Friday and from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday. The Saturday hours are new-this trimester is the first time the store has been open every Saturday. Mahmoud takes great pride in his work. His goal as assistant manager of the Seaver College Bookstore is very simple: to provide the students, faculty and staff of the university with the best possible service and the lowest possible prices. Mahmoud is very optimistic that UCB can achieve these objectives and that it will be soon. We're trying to serve the university better. That's why we're here, he said as he turned with a smile to help a bookstore employee who had a question. -by Rob Gibbany Photo above: Kristin Spamer selects a sweatshirt at the bookstore; Opposite page: Masoud Mahmoud, assistant bookstore manager, tallies the da s income.

This responsibility is in part the role of the Campus Life office. Headed by Sara Jackson who is assisted by Carlos Aurellano, Laura Horowitz, and Marian Piersall, Campus Life also employs a staff of 18 students.

Living in the dorms is really a good way to get to know people. At first communication is forced, but then it becomes natural and pretty soon everyone in the suite becomes friends, Lisa Mehling, a dorm three resident said. Housing employs student resident assistants who supervise each dorm. All female dorms and their residents are under the supervision of Cynde Morgan.

PRIDE OF PEPPERDINE In an attempt to commemorate the accomplishments of especially dynamic graduating seniors, the Pride of Pepperdine was created in 1982. Through careful collection of data and special recommendation by an academic division, four students were selected in 1984 to receive this award. These individuals left a great impression on Seaver faculty and students. We’re proud to feature them here. Humanities GAIL WESTON Seaver's 1984 valedictorian Gail Weston graduated with a degree in English journalism. I came to Pepperdine because it was fairly small and had an atmosphere where I could learn from other people, as well as from books, she said. Weston became involved in a number of activities at Seaver. She was editor of Expressionists magazine, Pep-perdine's literary publication, executive managing editor of the college weekly newspaper. The Graphic, and a contributing writer for the student magazine, Oasis. Weston received faculty scholarships for two consecutive years and graduated from Seaver College summa cum laude with a 4.0. Business REBECCA KILDAY Business major Rebecca Kil-day graduated from Seaver College to enter the world of accounting and employment with one of the Big Eight' accounting firms-and she said she feels fully prepared for the endeavor.

Social Science ADRIENNE LINDSAY Communication DREW BROWN Communication religion major Drew Brown has taken full advantage of Seaver College's spiritual life opportunities. Brown spreads his belief for God with Seaver's Christian singing group, the Seaver College Singers. Singing with the group has contributed significantly to my years at Pepperdine as our purpose is to bring forth the Christian message, Brown said. One of Brown's most beneficial classes has been interpersonal relations. Through it, he has developed the ability to communicate and work closely with individuals and small groups. I would like to complete a doctorate in communications and teach forensics or debate at the high school level. Eventually I would like to be a professor at a university, Brown said. It is very possible at some point that I will become a minister. I have already applied for a position as a youth minister. Adrienne Lindsay chose to come to Seaver College four years ago because she wanted to attend a private school with an emphasis on the student as an individual. She found what she was looking for. I felt like the professors really tried to help students get involved in their fields of interest, and this proved to be very beneficial and rewarding to me, Lindsay said. In addition to what she refers to as book knowledge, Lindsay gained practical experience in the field of psychology through volunteer programs, internships and field experience. Also, because she worked her way through school for her four years at Seaver, Lindsay said she was highly motivated to do her best. I wanted to get as much out of school as much as I was putting in, she said. Lindsay chose to major in psychology because of her love for children. She plans to go on to graduate school and become a child counselor. Portland C. Addy T.V Broadcasting Evelyn C.
