Plymouth State University - Conning Tower Yearbook (Plymouth, NH)

Text from Pages 1 - 186 of the 1982 volume:

2 K©vm Donie Plymouth State College—her history and her legacy date back to 1871. And she certainly has changed over the last one hundred and eleven years. While walking across the campus, one cannot help but notice the old Conning Tower on Rounds Hall or the proud pillars of Mary Lyon Dorm flanked on all sides by newness—right down to the new brick walkway on Alumni Green. Such change is unevita-ble. There exists (and has existed) here at Plymouth State College, however, a certain undeniable constant—the indomitable spirit of the Plymouth State student, staff, and faculty member-felt in every aspect of life at this college. Much like a backward study of a PRISM, which breaks light up into the spectrum, contributions of spirit—in the excitement of a football game, in the stillness of the library, in the earnestness of the classroom, and in the heat of a fraternity party or of a NAP—come together to form an overwhelming unity that we can proudly call Plymouth State College. Being here daily, weekly, even yearly as we are, we find it tempting to deny the existence of this spirit, this unity, because in the midst of the forest, we cannot see the trees.” No one dares deny it, though, for essentially, it is at the heart of all we do. 3 Plymouth State College . . . ... it is, after all. not just a place but a way of life. For the hundreds who have preceeded us in a history spanning over a hundred years, for the hundreds not yet born who will follow us. there remains nothing more steadfast and constant than that intangible, often underspoken aspect of student life unique to Plymouth State College, which surely occupies some place in our every endeavor. This intangible is not easily defined, but brings us back to the notion of school pride and spirit. It is not that we just go to school here for four years, but that in the process we are consumed and shaped and molded by our very existence here—even if occasionally destined to stumble under the burden of growing pains as we search for an identity of our own. This is equally as true for us today as it was for our predecessors one decade, two decades, even ten decades. ago. The CONNING TOWER, then, exists for one reason; to capture as much of this spirit and vitality of our life here as possible—and in doing so provide for future generations a viable record of the 1981-82 school year. The challenge is to be fair and accurate and comprehensive in the coverage of the year and. ideally, to house an appeal for the entire student body. If this goal is achieved, then the notion that good yearbooks are a dying breed becomes pure rubbish and our publication can stand on its own two feet. Stop for a moment and consider the necessity of the CONNING TOWER; its place in the future history of Plymouth State College must remain secure and unending. And. also, stop to enjoy the spirit, pride, and unity of Plymouth State—YOUR college. 4 5 Robin A. Porringer 6 Aion Croft ■ axi'.rMjvj n Dr. Kasper C. Marking Eleventh President Of P.S.C. Speaks On The College Community “Five years at Plymouth State have confirmed again and again my initial perceptions of the campus community - an excellent faculty, capable and concerned administrators and staff, students who are energetic and charming, and who deserved to be challenged. This college is on the move, and it is because of its people. Colleges which are worthwhile are always buoyant and optimistic places. They always look to a better future—always toward higher standards of accomplishment. Colleges like Plymouth State are determined about their mission and their worth to society, but never are they grim or without high spirits. This is a great campus now, but what a place it will be in five, and ten, and fifteen yearsl We are justified in being proud of our college and in our determination to make it even better. m 12 Dedication The Senior Class of 1982 dedicates this edition of The Conning Tower to Mr. Richard L. Church. Mr. Church is an inspiration to all the students here at Plymouth State College. His enthusiasm and dedication in helping students further their learning experience should be recognized. Jim Leek 14 My First Time recollections of a freshman by Kevin Dome I still rsmsmber my first trip up 93 to Plymouth. I was going up to start my freshman year. The paper that the school sent told me to move myself in between 10 am and 3 pm. This was a� the information that my father needed. we'd better pack the car ahead of time, to be ready early in the morning. he told me. He's always been that way. Whenever there were instructions to get somewhere between one time ond another, my father always arrived no more than two minutes later than the earliest specified time I'm sure that if Plymouth wrote, move in between 4 am ond 9 pm , my dad would deliver me right on the doorstep of the dorm by 4:02 am With the car all pocked. I found myself woken up at 8:30 am; my mother telling me. Hurry up. or else you'l be late getting up there '. Slowly I readied myself. If there's one thing a freshman doesn't want anyone to know, it's that he is a freshman. I figured that only a freshman would show up. over eager at 10 am. so I took my time ond drogged my heels. I held off leaving for as long as I could. Breakfast was a cfcaster. My parents both stared at me os l entered the kitchen. (Please, please don't give me any advice!) You know dear. my mother started in. “if you don't like school, you con always drop-out and come home. It won't really be quitting. She always has that way about her As she said these words, her tone both said that she realy dKJ believe it was quitting, and that she was already sure I'd be a falure in colege. My father held off on saying anything. but watched as I picked at the cornflakes in the bowl before me. The very second the last soggy flake went past my lips, he announced. It's time to get going . I checked my room one last time. (Had I brought too much stuff? Not enough?) I heard my parents toeing from the kitchen. He's going to have to learn to travel bghter. my father was saying He'l learn once he gets to college. my mother od-ded. but you can't tel hum anything. he knows it an. (The same tone of voice) Not finding anything that I could make up on excuse to bring. I faced the inevitable truth, it was time to go to Plymouth Dad led the way to the car. I skd onto the front seat bestde him. I looked up just in time to see my mother locking the bock door (Please let her go to her cor. Don't let her come too! Only a freshman would come up to school with both school with both Mom ond Dad!) She walked up to the car and stood with her hands on her hips beside my door. (Even her look is in that tone of voice) I got out of the front and sulked into the back seat And we were off Once on the h ghwoy. things worsened Packed cars flew by us Inside were kids, travelog up to school alone or with their friends I consoled myself. (Probabaly juniors or seniors) My embarrassment grew with each passing car My mother turned off the rodo and I took notice of my parents Mom was wearing blue cheenos. (At least she's not wearmg polyeater stretch pants) Relieved that I wouldn't hove to be embarrassed by the way she looked. I caught a gtmpse of my dad. He'd been good enough to wear a normal shirt and the pair of Levi's I'd given him for Christmas, but he had on his well worn Budweiser pork pie hat. I nearly died Taking my mind off what I thought my roommate might say about the hat. I occupied myself (cont. on page 58) Unloading truckloads of stuff.

The Plymouth Green Summer Changes For PSC “Our college is located in one of the most beautiful areas in New England, indeed all of the United States. Many of our students are attracted to Plymouth State in part because of its outstanding location Yet our campus is without a central green area in which students can relax and converse or study in an outdoor setting. This situation seems to me incongruous. During the major expansion of the last decade, emphasis was placed on bricks and mortar and fewer dollars were available to provide natural areas within the campus. We now have the opportunity to remedy that situation and the proposed college green is the first step in that direction. The completion of this much needed project will make the college more beautiful and comfortable for those who study or visit here and more attractive to those who are potential applicants. Kasper C. Marking President ■rick by brick the walkways of the new Alumni Green were completed in time for the return of some 3.200 students. Paid for entirely by donations from alumni, the 2,000 feet of walkways are part of a new green which will eventuoty contain trees, shrubs, informal seating areas, and a small amphitheater for educational and social gatherings (top left). 17 What's Entertainment? ntertainment is amusement, fun, diversion, relaxation, recreation. Entertainment is a broadway musical, a play, a casino in Las Vegas, a carnival, a burlesque show. Entertainment is a talent show, a road race, a football game. Entertainment is Homecoming. And we were entertained ... Chi Alpha Zeta Soroity was responsible for the organization of the homecoming events with the aid of John Fischer and campus response was enthusiastic. On Friday. September 25. events began with the PSC John C. Foley 6-mile Invitational Road Race and shortly after Wynn Grubbs received his trophy as the victor of that race, the Homecoming Talent Show began in Foley Gymnasium. The show featured John Galiagher-a comedian from Boston-and the best (and worst) talents of the participating campus organizations. Hall Dorm took the honors for the evening when, clod only in towels, ten of their best performed their rendition of “King Tut”. Kappa Sigma Phi sorority and Smith Hall were awarded Honorable Mentions. Following the talent show was a display of fireworks behind Foley and Homecoming T98T was officially underway. On Saturday, the Homecoming Parade began at TO o'clock with sixteen floats and Plymouth community participation from the Royal Eagles Marching Band and the local Fire Department All floats involved in the parade showed great ingenuity but Hall Dorm. Pemi Hall, and Alpha Theta Fraternity were exceptional and placed first, second, and third respectively Athletic events occupied the afternoon with Plymouth Field Hockey vs. Bowdoin College, Plymouth Football vs Western Connecticut College, and Plymouth Soccer vs. Keene State College. The announcement of the victors of the various events came at halftime of the soccer game. Lee Richard was presented with the Jason Holder Award as the Most valuable player in the Homecoming Football game. Pemi Hall was victorious in the banner contest while Tau Omega sorority and Alpha Theta Fraternity were awarded honorable mention. Smith Hall's Shelia Hengst and her King. Greg Gardner, were crowned homecoming King and Queen T98T. Aside from the scheduled events, the campus was alive with parties All dorms, apartments, fraternities, and sororities were lively as alumni, parents, and of course. Plymouth students swarmed the campus. What's entertainment? Homecoming T98T . . Let Your Talent Show “Heigh ho, heigh ho, to home coming we go!1’ chanted lota Delta Chi Sorority (lower right). Smith Hall's Heather Brotherton danced to an honorable mention with a guitar ac-companiement (lower left).

King and Queen are selected by a campus wide election. This year second and third places were not selected. The Parade • a M A D R GIAILID R The Fourth Annual Madrigal Dinner. an Elizabethian Celebration, brought together the sights, sounds, and feast of the past era. The feast was highlighted with a roast boar. Among the entertainment were the Madrigal dancers, singers, and musicians. A head table exemplified the traditional feast ceremonies attended by the Queen and her Court. The Madrigal Dinner was regarded as a successful evening of pure entertainment. 28 I I Dr. Mary Bilheimer I Dr. Mary Bilheimer, professor of noturoi science at Plymouth State Cotege talks on ste In Plymouth m 1982. On the classes she teaches: I teach one major subject every year, microbiology. Every other year I teach a class in histology which is the study of Ivmg tissues. The rest of her classes are for lay people, which I enjoy very much Of course, the thing I feel the greatest satisfaction from is my Birth Defects course because it started as a module and is now a three credit couse. It's always one of the first filed at registration time. By spitting the class. I can now accomodate more students—about 200 per semester Teaching these classes puts me in touch with o wide perspective of the students, that's what I like, working with so many different students ” On the award given to her at convocation: It was from the student body to the person who they thought had gn en their greatest dedication or devotion to the student body. I was surprised and pleased to get it. On her education and previous work experience: I just had my 26th graduation. I spent two years teaching junior high. Before that I was an instructor at Cokjmbia University while I was getting my doctorate degree. I also received my masters at Columbia My undergraduate work was done at Gettysbug Coftege in Pennsylvania. Dr. Bfrieimer chose to attend the same colege where her father was on the faculty, serving as the director of athletics and the head of the physicol education department. On the question, “Would you recommend Plymouth State College?” Weil, I'm still here. I've looked around, and I sti Ike Plymouth, On the administration: ’1 think sometimes we (the administration) make changes too rapidly before we have had time to assess the previous change. On her teaching style: “I teach for the students. My subject matter is a vehicle and I hope students learn, but I also want to see and watch students gro and develop in my course. In other words. I teach the students, not the subject. On her Involvement: I enjoy being involved in student activities. Working with the students is the most enjoyable and gratifying aspect of teaching.

ROGERS AND HAMMERSTEIN'S KLAHOMA! 3T Distinguished Education Professor Retires The following article appeared In the Clock on Thursday, April 5th, 1982 This June one of the most distingushed teaching careers in New Hampshire higher education wl come to an end. Dr. Norton R. Bagley, professor of education at Plymouth State Cotege. will retire after 29 years of preparing teachers to meet the educational needs of the New England region Richard A Morse, chairman of the University System Board of Trustees, recently expressed the esteem which members of the board have for Professor Bagley when he wrote, “I know of Dr. Bagley's contributions to the college not only from more than one generation of students, but from the wealth of friends on the faculty and staff of the cotege and throughout the State of New Hampshire. Dr. Bagley has been a significant force in the sfe of the cotege. and I think it is appropriate that he be recogntsed on the occasion of his retirement os one of the truly great faculty people in our state university system, Professor Bogiey's dedicated service to teacher education in the Granite State was recognised during a testimonial dinner at the college's John C Foley Gymnasium. Dr. Bogiey's teaching career at Plymouth has spanned more than a quater of a century. One of the few professors to have taught at Plymouth under it's three different names — Plymouth Normal School. Plymouth Teacher's College and Plymouth State College of the University System of New Hampshire. Professor Bagley has seen tremendous changes in the institution. From a teocber preparation school with on enrollment of 250 students, almost all of them women, to today s rrxiti-purpose coeducational college serving some 3.400 young people. Plymouth State has grown and changed over the Bagley years But the one thng that hasn't changed in afl the years I've tought here is the students. he sold. The one thng rewarding to me. and that's probobKy why I sti teach, that we have a fine group of students They are eoger. highly motivated, want to improve themselves and. compared with most, ore extremely wel behaved and very considerate and po«te. Professor Bagley has seen the cotege curriculum change from what he termed less subject matter and more experience in the 1950's to an Increased stress on subjects In the 60's to today's trend to combine a strong experience base with a subject-oriented base Becouse of a reduction in the demand for teachers, he has also seen education go from the major taken by almost ci of the cotege's students to one currently attracting less than one-third of them What does he see as the future of teocher education? Trends in teacher education enrollment depend upon the birth rate in the past two or three years. I would expect that by the end of the decode enrolment will rise drasticaKy The Education Department sees the need to improve it's curriculum now. whle the enrollment is st low. There is now less of a need for high school teachers, but a growing demond for day care and preschool teachers. As to his own future following retirement. Professor Bagley intends to bring his trio of books on Ns famly history up to dote and do more research on the Dr. Norton R. Bagley history of New Hampshire ond the Plymouth area He recently summed up his bo$� c phtos-ophy on the subject of teoching by saying. The idea is that you have to treat pupils as people and that you have to have a strong subject base to teach from. A teacher also has to be a role model for his students. Put the most Important part of teoching is what happens between the teacher ond the pupl, that (is what) makes the cNd want to learn You can't predict who wi be successful as a teocher It's a chemistry between the pupl and the teacher and it's hard to te who will have it. In 1972 the trustees of the University System of New Hampshire honored Dr. Bagley with a Gronite State Award for outstanding service to education in the state. A native of Derry. NH. and a graduate of Pinkerton Acodemy. Norton Bogley received Ns B Ed. degree from Plymouth In 1941, Ns M.Ed. from Boston University and Ns Ph D. from the University of Connecticut. FoBowmg his graduation from Plymouth, he taught grodes seven and eight in Pittsfield. ond was later principal of Mdndoes Academy In Vermont. Dr. Bogley supervised the laboratory school at Plymouth from 1945-46 and 1950-52. He was cho man of PSC's Department of Education from 1965-78 ond also served Ns alma mater as dean of Instruction for two and one-half years, dean of student personnel for three years and director of public relations for a year. His book One Hundred Yeors of Service Plymouth State i 32 College 1871-1971 is concidered the definitive history of the college He is a member and former chairman of New Hampshire's Council for Teacher Education and in that capocity accredits cotege education programs and odvises the State Board of Education and the legsiature on state teacher education. Professor Bogley is also a member of the American Association of Coleges for Teacher Education. the American and New Hampshire Personnel and Guidance Associations, PN Delta Kappa, Kappa Delta Pi and the American Association of University Professors When asked why he decided to become a teacher of teachers more than 30 years ago. Dr Bogley repfced. I thought I could do more to improve the schools by training those who were going to teach than by teaching myself.

I got a lot of personal growth out of this job Fish says. Developing worth-whie student programs is rewarding Students are less Bcely to drop out of school if they are involved m extracurricular activities. It's a service that exists and should be taken advantage of. If students don't get involved, they are missing a large part of co ege Fish is no stranger to involvement at PSC.

Her optimism stemmed from a team of 25 good, solid, ai-oround soccer ployers. Despite losing five graduating sectors. Riz-zieri had a successful recruiting season and attracted one of the finest freshmen classes ever. Our freshmen can fill any gop we hove.” says Rizzieri. They are extremely skilled and the only thing that they lack is college playing experience. According to Rizzieri. the team also had some exceient returning material”. Rizzieri is very high on senior goalie Linda Altman of Pittsfield. Mass. In 12 gomes last year. Altman conceded only 15 goals in re-cordng an impressive 1.25 goals against average. The backup goalie was promising sophomore Ann Jealous, a transfer from Hartwick College, which supports a Wei-known soccer program Freshman Ann Poirer of Winchester, Mass, hod some big shoes to fill at the sweeper position. She replaced lost yeor's top defensive player and All-American sweeper Nancy Donahue. The rest of the Panther defense was first-year sophomore. Sharon SeyKer of Middle-bury. Vt.. freshman Cynthia Goodell of Rochester. N.H. and junior Deb Rocke of West Canaan. N.H. Sophomore Michele Lamon-tagne of Manchester. N.H.. and freshman Judith Farrond of Manchester, N.H. were also expected to play of the finback slot. Perhaps the team’s strongest area is the midfield, where the Panthers hod three returning veterans. Junior center forward Kathleen Driscoll of Winchester. Mass., who led last yeor’s squad in scoring with 14 goals and seven assists; sophomore Dee Sharpe of Point Pleasant. N.J.. and junior Joan Morrissey of Newton. Mass. Talented senior Josee Pothier worked up front with Carolyn Edwards, an impressive freshman center fuBback from Simsbury, Ct.

But this season's Panther soccer express could be tacking some of this offensive firepower—due to the loss of high scorers Lew Simmons. Jack Driscoll and Lance Brown, who set a PSC record with 16 assists in 1980. The Panthers did have plenty of talent returning. however. High-scoring sophomore Steve Clark of Cambridge. England set a PSC goal-scoring record as a freshman with 24 goals in 17 games. He was selected to both the NCAA Divion HI All-American Honorable Mention Team ond the All-New Engiond Team. Another key returnee was senior co-cop-tain Chris Desjardins' of Newmarket. N.H.. who was named the team's most valuable defensive player last season, after being offensive MVP his first two seasons. Senior co-captain midfielder Pick MoJette of Raymond. N.H., was counted on to anchor the young midfield of the Panthers Probably the key to our success in the past, say Lut-ter. has been our ability to control the midfield. A midfield is like an engine and we wanted to have a smooth running car again this season. Foced with perhaps the toughest schedule in the NCAA Division I ranks, the Panthers competed against top-notch teams from ol three divisions. One player whose performance was critical to the team's success was sophomore goalie Chirs “The Rat Ratmusson The Fal Mountain. N.H. native has been coiled by Lut-ter as the best freshman goalie we've ever hod here at PSC. That's high praise from the man who coached NASL goalie Pete Simonini of the Jacksonville Teamen, who set a New England colegiate record for most shutouts in a season (14) and in a career (43) while at PSC. Other key players for Plymouth State this fall were junior defenseman Kirk Abrohamson of Rutledge. VT., sophomores Kraig Brown of Ploistow. N.H.. Jeff Rocke of West Canaan, N.H.. Devon Parchment of Manchester. N.H.. Doug Karwoski of Wilmington VT., Bob Andrew of New London. N.H., freshmen Ken Hosster of Henniker. N.H and Emmanuel Hi-deos of Storrs.

Hard intensive study in an upright position for a long period of time is hard, if not impossible. This is the obligatory page devoted to study which in itself is the obligation of being a student. First Time cont. from pg. 16 thought my roommate might say about the hat. I occupied myself looking out the window. We hardly seemed to be moving at al. How fast are we going? I enquired innocently. Fifty-two damn mies an hour, and I don't see any reason why I should speed, my father said, angered. (He must have picked up a thing or two from Mom) I didn't want to be the first person there, but al I could picture was al those people waiting in Plymouth and loughing os they recognized ours os the car that was creeping along the highway. More people sped by and I sunk down in the bock seat hoping that nobody would see me and remember me later. I Forced Her A Weak Smile While My Stomach Churned. We passed the Ashland exit and a sign that read, Plymouth 6 (Six miles! Turn around. Turn Bock I Don't make me go!) My mother looked back and smiled. I forced her a weak smile while my stomach churned Before I knew it. we were in Plymouth. Paling up to the dorm parking lot. I noticed one station wagon in particular out of the hoard of cars filling the town It was filled with a family larger than the Waltons. A guy. (obviously a freshman) was saying goodbye to his family. His mother was kissing him al over whle Grandma was taking snapshots with the instamatic. His father shook his hand and put his hat on. A Budweiser pork pie. Things weren't quite so bod anymore. We're al in the same boat when we're Freshmen. Softball cont. from pg. 130 shortstop Deb Demers led the team with 21 R8l's and was fourth in batting at .386. Outfielder Sue Hutchinson batted .404 whie sophomore Kate Moran was the top hitting reserve with a sparking .769 batting average in just 13 at bats.

The assistant coach of the squad wos Shaun Donahue, while Ann Jealous was the manager and Angela Sombdd helped out os the trainer. Getting To The Regionals Was An Accomplishment Probably the only low point of the Panthers' season occurred in the EA1AW Division I tournament, when PSC dropped an 11-5,14-0 double-header to powerful Wi-Bam Patterson (N J.) Co� ege. We just didn't play oil that well and sort of hung our heads a little in the second game. admitted Rizzieri. But just getting into the regionals was an accomplishment.

Conn There Is Good Balance In Our Conference The panther kicking conbination of punters Sorocco and Kneetand and kicker Jim Thompson wos also expected to be a positive foctor in the team's performance. Cottone predicted that. Our kicking game should be very sound, we've got some guys in Sorocco and Kneetand who con really punt the footba . Our Kickers ore also long and consistent. They should get us out of a few holes this season. Cottone thought that Norwich, Maine Maritime. Framingham State and possibly Mass. Maritime would be tough to defeat in 1981. Bridgewater State was also expected to be talented. There is good balance in our conference. agreed PSC defensive coordinator Chris Clarks. “Teams such as Framingham State always play us tough and can never be counted out. Along with Clarke, other Panther assistant coaches were offensive coordinator Charles Currier, defensive line coach Bi Hay. defensive bock field coach Ralph Naples and receivers coach Ernie Genece 58 THE PUB Hand Stamping And Foot Stomping First, you listen around campus to hear what is going on.

Within a span of one week, vandals were successful in stealing college property from three different places. Of course the vandals were not seen in their malicious acts— or were they? I have an inkling there are are witnesses but nobody wants to speak up and get involved for fear of peer pressure”. The ultimate replacement cost comes out of your pocket. This pilferage has got to cease and only with your help will this be possible. The latest theft involves a sculpture which has been a visable part of PSC's improving character. This sculpture was installed during the 1981 graduation weekend. The piece is in the shape of a newborn, symbolizing a rebirth or renewal and is the work of Deborah Charles. Debbie is a native of Bermuda and a 1981 Art Education graduate of Plymouth State College. She is currently teaching in her homeland. As a junior in the fall of 79, Debbie enrolled in the advanced sculpture class. Sculpture for Public Places with a dream to fufill. She wanted to leave behind a piece of work given to the college in gratitude of the education and associations she had gained here. The work began in the fall and by winterim 1980 the model for the large piece was completed. Second semester was dedicated to the molding of the work. During this time Debbie carried a full academic load and was very involved in campus activities, most notably the Foreign Students Association. The clay model was not completed in time to be cast, but Debbie promised to complete the piece upon her return from Bermuda in the fall. At tt « dedication In 1981, Professors Robert Morton and Al Davit helped Deborah Charles to uncover her sculpture, Just days before It was stolen. The academic 1980-1981 year was Debbie's last. One semester was devoted to student teaching, thus she was unable to enroll in Sculpture classes because of the priority of graduation requirements. Debbie spent weekends, vacation, and spare periods casting the work, polishing up the loose ends and finally dedicating the sculpture in front of Boyd Hall. If in fact the sculpture is a symbol, it is as much a symbol of a person's dedication to his her work as to keeping a promise and the fufillment of a dream. The ammount of physical work and long hours spent on this project are staggering. The search for perfection is admirable but the demonstration of personal integrity is inspiring. Does it mean anything to you that an individual has left such a gift to the college only to have it stolen? Why can't we take pride in our campus and leave things where they belong? Debbie Charles knows nothing of this theft. I certainly don't want to tell her, do you? Editors note: As of this writing, in June of 1982, no new word on the theft has been heard. One can only hope that the piece will be returned. HIMC1I KfVltW THf COMPANY Jane Austin. Dana Bailey. Terese Bellmo. Dove Connolly. Steve Cuthbertson, Robie Desmond. Scott Fortier. Kevin Gilbert.

Keefe: My position Is the Director of Coiege Union Student Activities. That emphasises that my first responstoity is to make sue that the coiege union functions with positive impact on college life, that it meets the budget so that l don't go in the red Towor Who decides what goes into the Union? Keefe: There's a Coiege Union board which is mode up of some faculty, administrators, and students. They ore in essence an advisory board to me. We meet on a semi-regular basis to dtscuss upcoming problems or construction. the budget and it's impact on students. what we're going to do with the money each year and how the income areas ore doing. The Coiege Union is an auxiliary enterprise; what that means is that we pay to be here, we get no money from the college We octualy pay the coiege for energy and rent Those funds are generated through the income areas of the buldrtg- gome room, snack bar. college irton fee. those sorts of things, Tower Then, you could move this bmkSng. or it's services anywhere you wanted to? The coiege doesn't own the budding? Keefe: Wei. the building is owned by the state. None of the buikSngs on this campus are owned by Plymouth State College, they're a owned by the University system, which is under the ownership of the state. If I wanted to knock out out four wols and build a muiti-m on dolor addition. I'm not going to be able to do that on my own What goes on in the bufding. we pretty much have complete control over. Tower The Coiege Union fee is fouty dolors per year, and it has been for several years. How can you afford to keep the rate constant when virtually every other service of the college increases in price? Keefe: Wei. for starters, the price next year is gomg up one dolor per semester. There was a lot of pressure to raise it $10 lost year, but I held off on that. I've been adjusting a lot of the income areas of the bulking, increasing them significantly, the gome room has quadrupled in income in the last four years through putting in video games and phasing out the pinbol machines Tower: You sakJ that the income has increased in the last four yeors. is that when you come here, four yeors ago? Keefe: Yes. that is to say that's when I come to this job Before that I ran Blair haD for a year and a half. I got experience for that running a dormitory at Potsdam State in New York. State? Keefe: I chose Plymouth because I wonted to be in New Hampshire. As a kid we hod always summered in southern New Hampshire and most of my New York family had relocated out this way I was looking for work in January, when there was a position opening here, so I snogged it. Tower You attended school in New York? Keefe: I went to Potsdam, where I was a three year RA I was offered a graduate internship as a residence drector so I stayed a year. Wh e there I got a BA in Psychology and a MEd in Education. Tower If a person were interested in a position ike yours, what kind of educational background should he have? Keefe: Any kind of Student Personnel degree. The actual Student Personnel degree. Counsemg degrees, they look for those sorts of things. There are, however, any number of degrees that could lead you into this type of a career. Towor Right now what ore your big goals and projects? Keefe: I'm realy thrifled about the outdoor equipment rental center for next year, it'll probabaly have a big impact on this coiege in terms of octivity oriented services oval-able to the students. It'l be in room 24 at the Coiege Union. Right now we're complying with federal giidefnes for harvlcopped enterence. so we re putting in a ramp to the front doors of the bukJing Tower If there is one thing Plymouth State needs, what, in your opinion is it? Keefe: If I could do anything. I'd let everyone outside the Plymouth State College community know what Plymouth is about. I feel to a certain extent that we ore not known property. We have a semi-overty social attitude. The cdege's reputation has grown pheno-minaly in the five years that I've been here, but we need to have it grown further. We need to spread that word Our students are our own best advertisement though You look around and see our sister institutions toeing turmoil and having a declning enrolment that we have not yet hod to face, and I think that the reason is because this is a heck of a nice pioce to go to school. We have so much to do here and I would Ike to let everybody In the world know that. This Is A Heck Of A Nice Place To Go To School. Tower What made you choose Plymouth Plymouth Is My College Conning Tower: Where did you attend school? Dean Storer: Plymouth i$ my college, although at the time I was here it was Plymouth Teacher's College and we were oil in the teacher education program The number of students enroted was much smofler. my graduating class had 21 or 22 people in it which is Quite different from the number you find now. I first started here during World War I, there were fewer people to fake port in academic things because oil the men were off in the armed forces. Many of the women were involved in war related activities in industry so there weren't as many people interested in education. This school wasn't able to accomodate the numbers of students it has now. Tower: What did you do offer grodu-otion? Storer: I got a nice job in Claremont, N.H. teaching fifth grade, stayed there for two years, then I came back to Plymouth and fought at what they called the Lab School The elementary student teachers used to student teach on the campus, this buJcttng (Speore) was a primary school; the buldng where the bookstore is now located was a junior high. I taught there for two years and then I went to California. Tow r: What brought you back? Storer: A job. I've been here 19 years now. The opportunity was a position then cated Dean of Women, now caned Associated Dean of Student Affairs, and to teach part time in the education department. Tower: How has your job changed since you storted in the early sixties? Storer: The job has changed a great deal because of societies' expectations of women students, and what coleges should do for women students. In 1963. it was very important that women students be in at a certain hour at night, with them signing in and signing out so that someone knew where they were at oil times. The dean was responsible for making sure that they were al in. The housemothers would call me if Mary Jane wasn't in; I would go out and try to find Mary Jane. Societies expectations hove changed, plus the fact that young women have much more independence than at that time. As registrar I'm responsfcle for organizing the processes of registration which begins with taking the information the departments give us os to which classes win be offered through the stream which ends up with the grades being recorded for further record, and all the things that go in DEAN PATRICIA STORER Registrar between in terms of time room schedules, on Ine registration, that whole thing. Tower: How has the office grown recently? Storer: The office itself has grown because of the increase in the number of students that there are at the co ege and the function that are requred of a registrar's office. The computer streamlines many of our operations. However, os we get more proficient in our data colection and storage, more is requested of us in terms of using this information. Departments and administrators are making additional and more sophisticated requests than they did before. As our capabilities grew, so did the demands mode on us. We're working on a more computerized transcript which would make a lot of things easier, such as grade changes that now have to be done by hand Tower: What changes do you see for the future of the registrar's office'’ Storer: On a year by year basis-try hard to meet needs of students in terms of academic offerings, new majors, minors, concentrations, programs, inter-department and cfccptryyy formats. 73 Student Plymouth State College Junior, Diane Hamlin, served this year in the important position of student trustee of the University System of New Hampshire.

Dearborn: I think it's financial more thon anything else There ore. however, more people teaching the math through lectures but they're not tenured faculty so they are not considered part of our deportment faculty Tower Could you describe you involvement with the Alumni Association? Dearborn: I've been a class agent for obout six years A class agent is a person from the graduating class who sends letters of encouogement to send donations of money to the Alumni Associoiton We keep track of our class members ond we plan reunions for them.

The highsght of the Panthers' eight-gome win streak came on Apri 28 when they upended Division I opponent Dartmouth College 8-6.

The PSC laxmen were involved in seven one-goal games during the season and emerged victorious in only two — a 10-9 victory over Merrimack College and a 5-4 overtime win over Bates College. ”1 thought we had a real good year. said PSC head coach Dave Webster “Despite our record, we were very competitive in all our games except Bowdoin College and possibly Montclair State. The Panthers experienced a complete turnaround from the 1981 season, when they relied solely on a strong offense and a porous defense. The 1982 edition featured a strong defense led b senior co-captain Matt Fogarty of Madison. Conn., and by briilant freshman goa e John Jay of Burlington. Moss. The 6'4 . 210-pound Fogarty proved to be a strong cornerstone on defense for PSC, usuolly guarding the opposition's toughest scorers. He had on excelent season and won the Panther Leadership Award and was selected to the New England Intercollegiate East-West AH-Star Team. Other standouts on the PSC defense included senior Bryon Murphy of Derry, who won the Most Consistent Player Award, junior Dick Whitny. junior George Boivaird, who won the First Annual Panther Hatchet Award (for best checks and penalty minutes) and junior Mike Gorrity of Londonderry Offensively for the Panthers, high-scoring senior co-captain Dove “Dabdo Hodtey was the main man.

N.J., ended his final yeor at Plymouth Stole with 32 goals and 16 assists for 48 Points Hodley's offensive play and leadership earned him a spot on the New England Eost-West Al-Star Team. For the second year in a row. Webster has nominated Hadley for the NCAA Division III All-American Team. “I'd say he's got a good shot at making it ' said Webster. He's an outstanding two-way player.'' Sophomore midfielder Terry O'Brien enjoyed a fine season with 18 goals and seven assists, while junior Ben Cole scored 15 times and added four assists. Junior midfielder Bob Olson scored eight times and dished out eght assists. “We had more scoring opportunities than anybody else, which was a good indication of the kids working hard. said Webster.

We got off to a great start with some strong pitching, balanced hitting and a great attitude. But then we had our troubles late in the season ” Despite the late-season slump, the PSC baseball team outscored the opposition by a convincing 114-80. It set several new team records and played an exciting brand of baseball. Probably the greatest improvement was the pitching staff, which posted a 3.79 earned run averoge and set new team records for most strikeouts (132) and complete games (12) under the tutelage of Bagonzi.

He ends his four-year stint at PSC with os-time team records in most home runs (14), RBls (56). total bases (164), highest on-base average (.458) and highest slugging percentage (.672). Richard ond Parker were both named most valuable players for the 1982 Panther basebal team. Kneeland, who ployed left field when not on the mound, proved to be an excellent captain and hit .343 (23 for 67) with 13 RBls. Two outstanding newcomers were freshman Gold Glove second baseman Dove Dutra (.284) and strong-armed freshmon catcher Bruce Koskela (258) who were voted co-rookes of the year for PSC.

Undo A j. I A . Ji f- v- j: 1 Donna Mayhew Scott Fortier Tommy Coss CO Last Writes We , os you've probably oH reoized by now, this yearbook «$ late. We know, enough of you have told us. We also know that this is the best j yearbook that the students of Plymouth State College have ever produced. No one person can do it alone, and on the preceding two 1 pages are photos of the staff who helped me. Here is my space in which I may thank them. First of all. there is Scott Fortier, the guy who j didn't have enough time to be on the staff again, yet ended up laying out all of the pages which involved the Plymouth Players or Silver Hall j A late comer to the staff. Scott did a job that everyone else was avoiding, and did it quite wei. We were lucky to have him. Tammy Cass, another late comer, was available to us to drop everything to type whenever we needed her. With help from Nancy Daigle. Donna Mayhew ond myself. Tammy typed over and over again every word that appears o print in this book. When that was a done, it was her job to check the proofs for mistakes. Without Tam's dedication, this book would not be in your hands now. Donna Mayhew. copy editor and general assistant editor, was responsible for the lively writing that shows up on nearly every page This book has more copy, and more inte egent copy than the average Plymouth State yearbook. You have Donna to thank for that So do I. Another great help when it came time for copy deodfcnes and past due deadlines was Susan Abraham. As editor of the Clock this past year. I Susan wrote a few things specifically for us. as well as allowed us to reprint onything from the paper that we saw fit. Look through the book one more time, this time focusing on the quality of the pictures and you'll see ninety-five percent tobe of excellent I quaSty. The high co� ber of pictures was brought about because of Alan Craft, photo editor. With over six hundred photos to have taken, I printed and ploced in the book. Alan hod a monumental job to do and did that plus more. The sports section was completely handled by I him. A novice to layout and design, he learned quickly, and I must thank him for undertaking a job that he simply could have walked away from. Alan had a fine bunch of photographers under him. but well over three quarters of the photos in the book are by him. Photographers include: Kevin Danie. Robin Porringer. Tara Chose. Kim Trisciani. Nancy Brubaker. Scott Fortier. Harold Harrxlton. Donna Mayhew. Helen ' Demetry, Jim Leek. Patti Perkins, and Kevin Gibert. And that leaves me. I did everything that nobody else wanted to do. a little of everything. Since I'm on a roll thanking everyone involved. I wish to mention our advisor Tim Keefe. Thanks for not .yelling too much. Every book has a company representitive to help prod them along and te them their ideas are going to cost more money than is in the budget. The Josten's company has blessed us with a super representitive in our friend Jon Pankoff. In short, it has been a tough year trying to bring to you a promise I made to myself at the onset of the school year: to make the best yearbook I possibly could. Thot dream was realized. Maybe next year I could get it delivered on time. In the long run, a month, a year, or ten years from now. the focf that this book was delivered late won't matter. What will matter then is that this is a good record of the 1981-1982 SCh0OlV OT KevnDor Editor
