Arefit� 1989 CRIMSON “THE PHOENIX HAS RISEN” Letter From The Editors: When it looked as though the completion of this yearbook would never take place, we as concerned Ripon College students, decided some action needed to be taken. With a three-week deadline from start to finish, we began our endeavor of reformatting, reorganizing, and completing the layout of the 1989 Crimson. We strove to do the best job we could, working with a very limited budget and using all the 96 pages we were alotted. As students of Ripon College, we feel that preserving our years here through the creation and comple- tion of yearbooks to be a necessary and challenging feat. The years we spend in college are special timefc where we grow as individuals, and being able to capture a glimpse of those times through a yearbook makes all the work seem worthwhile. We, the editors, would like to take this opportunity to thank all the Ripon College students and faculty who aided us in our cause of finishing this yearbook, through their contributions of photos and their aid in“recapping” the past year. The years we spend at Ripon College are times of growth and friendship; times to hold close to our hearts and to never forget. Andrea L. Grant Tammy R.

Our laws, our literature, our religion, our art, have their root in Greece. The speaker is Shelley, the language poetic, the effusion Romantic, and the truth abbreviated in that it neglects the role of the Romans in the foundation of Western Civilization. Originally simple farmers and citizen soldiers in central Italy, the Romans were endowed with a practical genius which led them toward magnificent architecture, durable political administration, and solid civil engineering like roads, bridges, and aqueducts; but it led them away from the theory and ideas so precisely and comprehen- sively studied and written about by the Greeks. Yet that same genius and pragmatism prompted the able among the Romans to bring from the Greek world its special achieve- ment and to teach it in Roman schools. The Romans thus began the transmission, the handing over, of earlier culture and civilization, enabling new generations to build imme- diately upon the old; and the stability of Roman political administration both at Rome and in the provinces insured a firm grounding of the new schooling which continued through pagan and Christian schools and has survived the fiercest barbarian attacks through all subsequent centuries. Although clearly conservative in its preservation of the most relevant of the past, the Classical Tradition nevertheless liberates us from the structures, strictures, and fads of the contemporary. The unstated assumption in this observation is that individuals de- serve to be free from inhibiting forces, whether political, social, religious, superstitious, or even natural, in order to achieve their full human creative potential. This profound anthropocentric assumption, as vulnerable and fragile as often taken for granted, is the quintessence of our Graeco-Roman heritage. In Athens of the fifth century B.C. the individual emerged from sculpted marble, walked across the tragic stage, and had his voice in the assembly of the citizens. There were talent, knowledge, and wisdom may have elevated some above others Pericles seems to have been a first among his equals — any citizen apparently had the right to express his opinions and make himself heard. 4 Introduction Both the beginning and the end of Ripon’s 1988-89 academic year were marked by the Graeco-Roman heritage of rhetoric and politics. In early autumn students held their own notable assembly in front of Middle Hall to protest certain administrative policies, and the May Commencement theme, The World of the Media. was but a late twentieth- century version of an issue defined by the Greeks: How do words lead and mislead us? The problem is epitomized in the derivation of the English words grammar and glamour from the same Greek root meaning 'write'; and it is formally elaborated in such philosophical treatises as Plato’s Gorgias. Thus the Graeco-Roman heritage continues to have a lively existence at Ripon. as it should at a liberal arts college. The new flourish this year is that after a period of dormancy in part-time status, the Classical languages. Latin and Greek, have been restored to full-time status in the Ripon curriculum. Thanks to the Marie Zarwell Uihlein Chair in Classical Studies, conceived by the enthusiastic vision of President Stott and endowed by the sensitive generosity of Mrs. Uihlein, Ripon students can again examine the words of the Greeks and Romans without the medium of a translator. All of us can now without any intermediary continue such inquiry initiated by the Greeks as. How and what can I know and believe? How and what do I communicate? How and what do I live? Eddie R.

Coach Doug Bradley’s Redmen were a young and talented team that played some of its best football in sports against the better teams. Only a series of misfortunes at the end of the First half against St. Norbert and Beloit and a host of turnovers against Lawrence offset the Redmen’s efforts and eliminated any hopes of a winning season. A quick glance back at the season will show that this year’s team was improved but inexperienced with many freshmen called upon to play, especially on defense. Facing the prospect of replacing only five seniors, offensive linemen Scott Duff and Todd Blessing, quarterback Dave Tomczak, split receiver Jim Brown, and defensive end Chris Barstow, the Redmen appear ready to turn the corner to greater success. 42 Sports ROSTER: Phil Updike.

C'r ri A Sports 43 Men’s Basketball The championship aspirations of the men’s basketball team came to a screeching halt as the Redmen dropped an 82-71 Alumni Night” decision to Beloit College. One week later the Bucanneers defeated Monmouth College 76-74 for the conference championship. The Redmen, who finished the season with a 15-7 record, 9-3 in the conference, capped their season with a thrilling 82-80 overtime victory over St. Norbert College. The Beloit loss, however, prevented Bob Gillespie’s Redmen from capturing their fourth consecutive division title. Two all-conference performers Tyrone Kleinhans and Mick Augustyn led Redmen in 1988-89. Kleinhans, who was also named to the NCAA III Midwest District second team, repeats as a first team selection, and was the most dominant inside player in the conference the past two seasons. Augustyn, who had some great conference games, was a huge threat at the high-low post. The St. Norbert game also marked the end of the careers of Kleinhans and Pat Broeske. Kleinhans, who vaulted to number seven on Ripon’s all-time scoring list with 1164 career points, was a driving force in Ripon’s championship efforts. Broeske, whose career was plagued by injuries, was a four-year letterwinner and great example of the determination and perseverance of the Ripon College student-athlete.

The Redmen, who finished the season with a 7-14 record, 1-7 in the conference, were always exciting as they lived and died with the 3-point shot. Major highlights of the season were the 84-81 major upset win over division power Lake Forest College and the very successful semester break trip to Indiana. In the end. however, one bad break after another prevented coach Elaine Coil’s Redmen from finishing with their eighth consecutive winning season. All-conference performer Kathy Russell led the Redmen in scoring with 320 points, second on Ripon’s all-time season scoring list. She also established single game scoring (35 points) and game (6), season (40). and career (43) 3-point field goal record in 1988-89. He uncanny long range accuracy often placed her among the top ten 3-point shooters in the nation in NCAA II. The 1988-89 season also marked the end of the basketball career of Sandy Secor. Secor, who is an honor student in Chemistry, team captain of volleyball, basketball, and softball teams, and an all-conference performer in volleyball and softball, ended her career as Ripon’s seventh all- time leading scorer with 580 points.

The players were optimistic as the season began. Co-coaches Jennifer Shimer and DeAnn Buss, however, were faced with the task of working their way through a host of nagging injuries. The Redmen ended their season at 7-8 and 3- 3 in the conference; not quite what they had hoped for, but yet very respectable. Junior all-conference forward Tracy Kinard was once again Ripon’s chief offensive threat, and she received able help from Liz Wheelihan, Molly Drebes, Tracy Sanford, Shelley Adriance, and Trudy Ferguson. With only two seniors on the team, Maria Rzezotarski and Kristin Adomeit, the Redmen look to be tough as nails again next year.

However, disaster, in the form of a plague of disabling injuries, struck the Redmen early and turned another promising season into a 1- 13 campaign. With a severe shortage of returning veterans and others playing through injuries or playing at unfamiliar positions, the Redmen were forced to play with many inexperienced freshmen, and fatigue more often than not did the Redmen in. In the end, the Redmen showed significant signs of improvement, and there is hope for the future as the young players become a bit more competitive. The 1988 season marks the end of the short but brilliant career of midfielder Rick Fredland. Fredland, who was the leading scorer for the second year in a row, specialized in centering the ball on corner kicks and long throw-ins and. time after time, kept the Redmen in contention with his all-conference skills. Other seniors were midfielder Scott Gustafson, fullbacks Tom Matthews and Jim Girouard, forward Rick Bowhousen, and goaltender Mike Wong. ROSTER: Scott Ahern. Fr.; Pete Anderson.

Coach Chuck Larson’s netters, who finished the dual meet portion of the season with a 12-2 record, won the title with 84 points. The 1989 championship marks the first time in Ripon College athletic history that any Redmen team has won five conference titles in a row. After singles play on the first day, the Ripon netmen had won two singles championships, finished second in two others and were tied with Lawrence University with 48 points. The tide quickly changed in the doubles’ semifinals as the Redmen reeled off six straight match wins, three of them in head-to-head competition with Lawrence, to sweep the three doubles titles. And, look for more of the same in 1990 as all six starters return from this year’s team.

Indeed it was, as the Hedmen netters finished the season with a perfect 14-0 record and jumped from a seventh place finish in the conference in 1987 to the championship in 1988. And, the best is probably yet to come, as all of the netters will return next year to defend their crown. Individually three netters finished the season with outstanding records: Katie Trapp 17-0 at 2 singles; Alicia Nemecek 16-1 at 5 singles; and Nemeck and Mario Yao 17-0 at 3 doubles. Other individual highlights of the season were the conference championships by Katie Trapp at 2 singles, Alicia Nemecek at 5 singles, Maria Yo at 6 singles, Kris Semrad and Kris Colby at 2 doubles, and Nemecek and Yao at 3 doubles. Also Trapp and Penny Precour were runnersup at 1 doubles.

Sporu 49 Track The Ripon College men’s and women’s track teams again turned in some outstanding individual performana but lacked the numbers to make a big impact as a team. Coach Mike Pringle’s men’s and women’s teams bo improved over last year’s finish at the conference championships. The men moved up to eighth place with points and the women moved up to seventh with 48 points.

Although the turnout was still small, ten men and five women, the Redmen runners were an enthusiastic group all through the season. Coach Dick Hendricks was hopeful that both the men’s and women’s teams would escape the cellar at the conference meet, and that they did. The men’s team finished ninth with 237 points, and the women’s team, competing for the first time ever as a full team, finished eighth with 178 points. The 1988 season marks the end of the short careers of three seniors: Jim Czarnik, Cliff Serwe, and Milda Vickerman, All three were instrumental in the rebirth of the cross country program on the Ripon The premier runner in the cross country program was _ campus after a ten year leave of absence, freshman Lori Stich. Stich, an outstanding distance runner in track during her high school career (her hometown high school did not sponsor cross country), earned all-conference honors with her fifth place finish, the highest place finish ever for a Ripon woman, at the conference meet. Her all-conference finish also qualified her for the NCAA III Regional where she finished 26th, one place away from qualifying for the nationals.

Sports M Wrestling During most of the season the Redmen grapplers placed in the middle of the pack in the invitational tournaments leading coach Doug Bradley to believe the Redmen would do well in the conference. That was not to be. The wrestling team concluded the season on a rather disappointing five points earned by Alan Votis, who placed fourth at 177, and David Brooks, who won a wrestleback match at 142. A rough draw hindered the Redmen as Eric Goldberg, Dan Barzyk, and Jeff Anderson, three of Ripon’s main hopefuls, fell to top seeds and did not place.

Senior, four-time, all-conference selection Ev Wood’s usual strong pitching performance, timely hitting and solid defense propelled coach Bob Gillespie’s Redmen to an 11-6 conference record, a 17-12 season record and the Midwest Conference Championship. On the first day of playoffs, Ripon beat Knox College 11-2, but lost to 1988 conference champion and heavy tournament favorite Monmouth 3-1. On the second day. the Redmen got complete-game pitching performances from Mike Williams, Wood, his second in as many days, and Tom Dott to surge through the loser’s bracket of the double elimination tournament. The Redmen held off Lawrence University 8-5 and nipped Monmouth 6-5 and 4-2 for their first baseball championship since 1974. Although Ripon loses only four seniors from this year’s championship team, all were keys to the Redmen success. Wood will be especially hard to replace but the great team performance in the playoffs will keep everyone optimistic for next year.

Although Ripon’s 7-14 record was far from outstanding, the women were not very far from turning those numbers around. Coach Doug Bradley’s Redmen improved as a team in nearly every statistical category and were very competitive, especially against the top teams in the division. The seven wins represent the most wins in a season since softball became a varsity sport and seven of the fourteen losses were by two runs or less. Youth dominated the statistics as four of the top five hitters were freshmen. Diane Gardetto, Jill Przedwiecki, Letty Kinas, Tracy Whitt, and Alicia Nemecek led the team in hitting and runs batted in. And, with only one graduating senior and two juniors on this year’s team, everyone is looking forward to continued improvement next year.

Unfortunately the Redmen did not qualify for the championship bracket at the conference tournament and had to settle for an eighth place finish in the conference. The 1988 season record marks the 15th winning season out of the last 16 years for coach Elaine Coil’s volleyballers. The 1988 season also marked the end of the careers of two steady performers, hitter Sandy Secor and setter Sue Wagoner. This year’s team was young and inexperienced and will certainly look to be much improved in the future.

The women’s team, behind Chris Racine, Meg Munar, and Kristin Stika, scored 84 points to finish in seventh place at the eight-team conference championships. Racine placed third in the 100-yard butterfly, seventh in the 200 butterfly, and twelfth in the 100 freestyle. Munar placed tenth in the 100 butterfly while Stika placed twelfth in the 200 freestyle. The men’s team, behind Mike Dusza, Joel Cook, Ed Juda, and Mason Powers scored 92 points to finish in seventh place at the eight-team conference championships. Dusza placed seventh in the 200 individual medley, eighth in the 100 freestyle, and ninth in the 100 backstroke. Cook placed ninth in the 200 butterfly and eleventh in the 100 butterfly.

Under coach Paul Weiler, there has been a resurgence of quality on the golf team as four of the top five golfers are capable of breaking 90. The Redmen, how- ever, finished last with a score of 753 at the 1989 Midwest Conference Championships. Jayson Berg led the Redmen, who are only one or two big sticks away from being quite competitive, with a pair of 88’s for a total of 176.

There are many fine musical performance organizations at Ripon College. One has the choice of playing with the Jazz Ensemble, the Symphonic Wind Ensemble, and the Orchestra. One may also sing with Chora Union, Chamber Singers, or Collegium Musicum. These ensembles perform at least once each semester Often, they combine their efforts, as did Choral Union and Orchestra in order to present Gilbert and Sullivan’s H.M.S. Pinafore this April.

Hmmm what's that burning down at the end of the line? 'I had to do a whirlwind cleaning job on my room before my mom came,” said freshman Barbara Smith, ‘You know, hide any incriminating evidence.” On the weekend of September 16-18, parents were invited to see the campus and visit their sons and tughters. This meant that students had to prepare for inspection, clean rooms, wear socks, and get enough p to be relatively coherent. lipon College entertained the entourage by offering tea at President Stott’s house, an opportunity for jnts to meet their offspring’s professors, and a picnic with a blues band. My mom liked the campus,” said Smith, “but she did give me a strange look when she saw people playing risbee Golf. I just said, “Hey, Mom, this is college.” Student Life 65 1988 Homecoming I-et's tear ’em apart! What should I do now? thinks Mike Putnam For one week out of the year Ripon slides back in time. Homecoming week is a deja vu of graduates of past years, along with all the fun and excitement that comes with it. Women toughed it out at Ingall’s Field during the annual Powder Puff game. Buddy Mondlock provided entertainment for everyone in the Pub. Living groups competed in window painting at Memorial Gym. Behind Storzer Gym, a bonfire provided warmth and good times for those who made the journey down. On Saturday morning, a festive parade down Watson Street boosted everyone’s spirit before the game. And at 1:30pm, the football game began. Also included in the weekend events were a tug-of-war competition, a greased pole contest, an outside dance, and a rugby game between the Alumni and the present Ripon team. The week was a great trip through the past and the present, as Homecoming is meant to be. ■fth 66 Student Life Ripon Slides Back Student I.ife 67 r-i cr POC Featuring Benedick and Beatrice were living proof that opposites attract.

Student Life 69 Winterfest, an annual Ripon College events, took place this year on the weekend of February 10th. There were a wide range of events, accommodating everyone from those interested in a relaxing evening of music to the active sporting events in the Quads and a great evening of comedy. It all kicked off with a Dessert Theatre Presentation featuring Dan Hart in Great Hall. Dan Hart is an excellent performer, and many people enjoyed his music, as he played and sang requests from the audience. Following the Dessert Theatre, a Roommate Game was held also in Great Hall. The first two rounds included both men’s and women’s teams. Then one round was played in the typical “Newlywed Game fashion with couples on the stage. An Air Guitar contest followed the roommate game. Four teams competed, performing a lip-sync to their favorite music while the crowd cheered each team on. Festivities continued Saturday with Phi Delta Theta’s Tray Ball in the Quads behind Mapes, followed by Beta Sigma Pi’s Snow Volleyball competition. “Trivial Pursuit’’ and “Comedy Sportz” were later held in Great Hall, providing great entertainment for everyone who attended, including those from the audience who were chosen to participate up on stage.

This protest was an action of the student body organization WWAS (We Want A Say). “We feel that we are not properly represented in the decisions of the administration regarding policies that directly affect our lives.” This was what WWAS claimed was the reason for the demonstration. The demonstration consisted of students voicing their concerns about problems on campus which were representative of the type of situations in which the students want a more significant say. The demonstration at its height was attended by students as well as faculty, numbering around 700. 4 ince Company 1989: Under the direction of Corey Wiley Hutton, the dance company « able to put on a tremendous show. Special guests included none other than What or? This year's company was able to recruit a few good males to make the company a il success. Some issues that were raised at the demonstration included: problems with washer and dryers, police involvement on campus. The Commons, the alcohol policy and student apathy on campus. The opinion voiced by those in the administration about the demonstration as a whole was positive, as stated by Dean Young. “The students showed the correct attitudes and conveyed interest in improving the college.” In his interview with Channel 5, however, he cautioned. If they start making end runs and think it's going to change the decision-making process. I think they have another lesson to learn.” This sentiment was echoed by Dean Northrup who said that. Peaceful demonstration is an unconditional right and that this demonstration represented education in action,” but expressed concern of how the interest could be best carried forward.
