Rochester Institute of Technology - Techmila / Ramikin Yearbook (Rochester, NY)

Text from Pages 1 - 260 of the 1982 volume:

The May 10, 1982 issue of TIME magazine carries an article about graduating engineering students; within this article is a feature on RIT n particular, which generalizes the student body as follows: The RIT students are a sober, goal-oriented group with little interest in poetry or campus politics. They spend countless hours in the school’s 15 laboratories, which are humming from 8 in the morning to 10 at night. From the start, an RIT education is geared toward the molding of marketable skills Some students protested this statement strongly, feeling it portrays our lives as being cold, sterile, and so career-oriented as to eliminate any interest in other creative or personal activities. Others sadly agreed. It is true that RIT stresses goal- orientation and the development of marketable skills. In fact, that is why most of us have come here. That does not, however, mean that our educations begin and end on that note. What one gets out of RIT is largely a matter of personal choice. The poor quality of student life at RIT has been a hot topic of discussion for years on this campus, but still a great number of students cannot see past the apathy and emptiness they encounter. They walk away with bitter memories of the Institute. On the other hand, many have found real life inside these brick walls — real friendship, fulfilling activities, the so-called well-rounded education. The attitudes of the people that make up RIT are diverse, the expression of them, personal. The 1982 Techmila, entitled Dimensions , has given individuals a chance to express and explore their feelings, their own interpretation ol the RIT Experience , their frustration and loneliness, their relationships or lack of them, their successes or failures. It is the synthesis of the many dimensions of our lives, our time at RIT Jcsw a — 2 You find it safer to criticize Than to resolve the situation; Apathy is easy to rationalize At an institute filled with frustration. Break through self-made isolation, Forget the learned apprehension, Question the depth of education, Understanding may ease the tension, Allow yourself to be vulnerable, find a new dimension. 3 Sharon Stockman Techmila Staff Kraska John Pask Editor-in-Chief Contributing Photographers Paul Brown Lisa Campanile Dan Chidester Dinah Coops James Craig Kevin Dean Robert Fast Jeffrey Felmus Steve Fletcher Mike Freeman Daniel Holmes Eric Klinefelter Mark Kraska Andrew LaValle Jane Levien Russ Lunn Kate Mon cure James McDonald Scott Nibauer Chris Paffett John Pask John Payne Robert Pfiefer Vincent Plaza Steve Puglia Robert Ripps John Rivera Robert Savage Quentin Schwinn Ariel Shaw John Williams Larry Woods David Zokaites Senior portraits by Delma Studios Dimensional photos by Mark Kraska Deans portraits courtesy of RIT Communications 4 Kraska Kraska Kraska Mark Kraska Managing Editor Sharon Stockman Art Director Michael Freeman Business Manager Kraska Kraska David Zokaites Photo Editor Chris Paffett Darkroom Technician Dan Chidester Staff Photographer 5 6 institute schooling environment brick boxes, beauty in careful structure occasional sun reflected orange facade placed on farmer’s lowland foundation now sinks essential corporation institute's bank account blackens we graduate knowing fundamentals of corporate life specialized techos students proud of ignorance of subjects not their own master technicians worth lots of bucks scholars can’t get jobs Julia Anne Wyant Shaw Chidesfer 7 ZokailfrS 8 Chktestar The magic of friendship Sweeps over us At the most unlikely of moments The hand that reaches out When we have fallen Under the burdens of our own humanity The shoulder that comforts us When we cry Over unexpected failings The eyes that see for us When ours are clouded over With the mists of our own ego The heart that warms us When other fires Have grown cold For friendship is a kind of love Subtle and persuading Persevering and constant And it is found Anywhere we care to took Yet that is why we so seldom find it For rarely do we open our eyes To see the beauty in those who surround us. 9 John Beckman Casual indifference Lends itself Smoothly To fate I caught Your image As it passed me And landed on my retina The night is light Why wait Our lives cross On an exponential curve At point (1,3) And again at (-1,3) Casual indifference Lends itself To the calculus of the night Bright in dim light But Casual indifference Lends itself Poorly To a relationship I lost The matchbook cover With your number 10 Dale Watdt McDonald I find myself drawn To darkened places And lonely moments For I often feel Cold and empty And I have a need For those times And that solitude To sort my life To seek out meaning To search my mind And heart For purpose and strength But all too often In these quiet times I find the questions I seek answers for Are insignificant When I consider how many of them Would be answered If I simply opened myself To those around me.

I cannot hear the leaves rustle beneath my feet. I cannot tell the velocity of a creek by sound. I can only look and imagine. I’m not doing very well. Every sound I attempt to dream up becomes a nightmare and quickly fades away. Like all my friends did when I entered the world of the non- hearing. They slowly disappeared. My mother said that, if they can’t accept you now, they were never good friends in the first place. Thanks, Mom. I guess I never had any good friends then. Maybe I. too, can fade away.

Over 100 Student Orientation Service volunteers helped the new students move in and become familiar with RIT's campus. The dormitories had almost 1,500 new residents moving in. Apartment complexes housing students began swelling to their largest occupancy levels ever. Applications to RIT increased seven percent this year, an 85% increase over the number of students ten years ago. One half of the students are entering programs that did exist just five years ago. The number of students this year ex- ceeded 16,000. The move-in process was an intricate and difficult affair. The dedication and commitment of the Orientation Committee members who remained at their posts from seven in the morning until three in the afternoon was the reason that Moving-In day was a success.

Contestants collected money by obtaining sponsors who pledged money according to the number of hours they danced. Many of the 35 starting couples completed the entire 24-hour marathon. Music was provided by the Rubber Soul Band, 8th Avenue Breeze, the Wells Curtis Band, the Joe Salzano Band, and Delroy Rebop 44 woods Chidester 45 Richard Simmons Paflett Dressed in pink and shouting 'I love people! television personality Richard Simmons burst energetically onto the RIT Ice Arena stage, Fast- paced exercises kept the 3700 plus people busy and Simmon's personality kept them entertained, Children, mothers, grandmothers, teenagers, men, and women swayed to the music, following Simmon’s every movement. Overcoming his own handicap — being grossly overweight — Simmons told of his desire to develop a chain of 300 exercise studios across the country with the intent of offer- ing handicapped people appropriate facilities. During a special re- ception for NTID students only, he asked how he might better serve the hearing impaired and asked several students to appear on a future tele- vision program. Whether it was to the beat of music or to his signaled cue, exercising followers leaped, stretched, and sprinted to lose weight by following in the footsteps of Richard Simmons. He is the motivational force behind this throng of people who want his leadership in exercising to lose weight.

This event was part of a larger project entitled “A Genesee Falls Celebration”, initiated by Gyorgy Kepes, the Kern Institute Professor in Communications at RIT this year. The purpose of this project was to increase public awareness of the falls areas and to explore potential ways of developing the surrounding urban environment. RIT students from several disciplines worked with Mr. Kepes and faculty advisors to make this project a success. Students, faculty, and Rochester residents participated in the celebration at the Genesee Upper Falls Terrace Park. Activities included dancing, playing frisbee, and entertainment by the Borinquen Dance Company, the Rochester Juggling Company, the Dady Brothers, and the Mime workshop. 48 Puglia Puglia 49 Spring-In W r tJ H? 1 ‘ w + • . • . ■■ . f - ROCHESTER IN i f 1 fiJTfE O F TECH' 3 Y : . ..

While featuring area bands such as RIT’s own Gordy and O’Grady, Joe Salzano, Autumn Skies, and the Eastman Jazz Ensemble, Spring-In also hosted the Ultimate Frisbee Contest, Tug of War, softball, and the Clothesline Art Exhibit. Topping off the weekend was an in- credible fireworks display on Sunday at dusk on the Union Green. 50 VI Klinefelter Mini-Baja As the defending champions the College of Engineering hosted the t982 Mini-Baja East Competition. Forty engineering schools from 18 states brought their all-terrain vehicles to RIT for the competition held on May 13-14. This was the third year that RIT has participated in this national contest. The event gave engineering students an opportunity to put their class- room learning to the test, designing and building their vehicles. Each car must compete in a variety of events including: a 12-mile endurance race, land and water maneuverability, acceleration, braking, and a chain pull. Ail cars were powered by identical eight horse power engines. Mechanical problems kept the RIT Mud Muncher from repeating last year's victory. During the third lap of the endurance race, the car broke down and RIT finished in eighth place overall. The 1982 champion was the University ot Maryland.

No commencement speeches were given. Following the ceremonies, each college conducted an open house and displays of student work. 54 Zokaites Zofcaites Kraska 55 Moving Out Zo aites The permanence I find ten weeks at a time has run out again; Goodbyes to old friends Promises to stay in touch All forgotten in time; Uprooted, unsettled try to make a new place my home”. Pull dusty trunks from storage Fill them with precious possessions; My nostalgia interrupted by the shattering of my favorite memory. I sweep up the fragments, Swear I'll never move again. ses 57 Zokaites Sports There is a great emphasis on academics here at RIT. I believe this is only part of the commitment to a well-rounded education. I have chosen hockey as a way of achieving the other aspects of this education. Through hockey I have been able to relieve some of the tensions and pressures of academics while at the same time improving my campus life. This has come through increased social activities and interaction with coaches, faculty, and staff In my two years of hockey at RIT, I have gained experience in team- work, sportsmanship, and especially leadership. Last season I was named co-captain of the team; it was a great honor to work with the coaching staff and with fellow athletes. My teammates were dedicated, hard working, and made me feel proud to be part of an intercollegiate sport. I feel this experience will have a solid influence on my behavior and acceptance in today’s society. 58 '11 OflvKJhaiv 59 Hockey Patiett 60 Paflett ttraska 61 Basketball CfiKJesTer 62 Chidester 63 Swimminq 64 Kraska Kr� Ska 65 Soccer 66 Kfaska KrasKa 67 Rugby 68 Zofcaites Paffett PaHtit 69 Womens Rugby Payne Payne Payne 70 Payne Baseball Cntarater 71 Water Polo 12 Lacrosse Parfett Paftett 73 Tennis 74 Kfaska 75 Volleyball 76 Kra ka Krasks KrasKa 77 PaMelt 79 Greeks I found Ihe answer while sitting in an emotional meeting The last of the year. Several of the brothers were in tears as each person took his turn to express his feelings about the house. Ears were attentive, eyes moist, voices cracking. After each brother spoke, we rushed to the center of the room and sang the psych song of TKE, a song about a town in New Jersey where one brother came from seven or eight years ago. He was not an outstanding leader, just “one of the guys”. No one in the room that Wednesday had ever set foot in Vineland, but 50 men were huddled arm in arm with wobbly knees singing about it at the top of their lungs. When I first started to write this, I began to write down all the “things that have made my past four years as a member of Tau Kappa Epsilon so special; the friendships, the sporting events with crowds of up to 100 fans, parties and social events, late night bull sessions, personal development, traditions and ideals by which to live. Though it may be difficult to experience all these “independently”, most can be found by joining any student organization, not just a Greek house. But I can't imagine what college would have been like if I hadn't joined TKE. What one thing is it that's so important to sixty men who differ from each other in so atJ 6 Psi . °n ph - 'Lon r-HA Pity many ways9 You see, there is no “thing that explains a fraternity. That’s why it's hard to tell someone what pledging is like, to explain why we giggle like kids and sing stupid songs in the quad when the pledges get into the house. It's just that someone else now has the chance to share in the unexplainable experience of being a Teke. Fraternal life is a life of the heart. It's not just a life of wearing TKE 1 buttons, bandanas, and other fraternal clothing. These are nothing more than a feeble attempt to show outwardly the life that exists inside the heart.

Campus clubs and activities offer student members an opportunity to develop leadership skills, to get to know people outside of their major, to make a valuable contribution to the RtT community, and to have fun. These experiences recorded on the resume can also make the student appear more well-rounded, and therefore more appealing, to the employer. Brand new on campus, the RIT chapter of Women in Communications. Inc. has grown in membership from a group of four committed friends to an established club of sixteen. Starting a new organization on campus has been challenging and difficult at times. However, WICI shows promise of making a valuable contribution to the RIT community and to enrich the lives of those who join.

You must be together due to the lack of space. Tripling, or putting three people in a room designed for two, squeezes people even closer together. Friends and others not quite so friendly are only a few steps away. Togetherness does have its problems. Blasting stereos on different stations, each coming through different walls, tends to be quite maddening. Just about anything goes in a dorm. Putting in the hallways, rooms stuffed full of newspaper balls, the typical freshman pranks. And then there is the alcohol. For many, dorm parties are their first real drinking experience. This has its pleasures and casualties.

The images and symbols which can truly domesticate the newly revealed aspects of nature will be developed only if we use all our faculties to the full — assimilate with the scientist’s brain, the poet's heart, the painter's eyes. It is an integrated vision that we need; but our awareness and understanding of the world and its realities are divided into the rational — the knowledge frozen in words and quantities — and the emotional — the knowledge vested in sensory images and feelings. Artists and poets on the one hand, scientists and engineers on the other, appear to live in two different worlds. Their common language, their common symbols, do not exist. To develop a vision which brings the inner and outer worlds together, we need common roots once more. We are like Antaeus of old, whose strength, ebbing whenever he lost contact with the Earth, his mother, became renewed each time he touched the ground, Spun out of our heads, science and art remain anemic and without root, and need strengthening contact with nature once again. The natural world remains the common basis for all of us, even though it is changed beyond recognition from the world of nature known to our fathers. It still starts for us where we come in contact with it — through our senses. Science has opened up resources for new sights and sounds, new tastes and textures. If we are to understand the new landscape, we need to touch it with our senses and build the images that will make it ours. For this we must remake our vision. From the new landscape by Gyorgy Kepes Kraska Gyorgy Kepes — R.I.T Kern institute Professorship in Communications, 1981-82 MFA Photography Working with photography is a very deliberate choice on my part. It forces me to look with the utmost concentration not only at the physical appearance of things, but also at their interrelationship. This gives me a grip on a piece of reality which in turn encourages me to go on using photography. It enables me to disentangle things that seemed chaotic at first. This is true in my sequences and equally so in my photo-reportage and photo-montage. As a photographer, I start out from the observation and registration of reality as I experi- ence it. Making sequences means, for me, working with a structured form with which I can record my observations. My sequences are the outcome of my search in that direc- tion, the transition between un- identifiable and identifiable. By concentrating exclusively on what I see and how I can record that with my camera, I try to extend in limits of my perception further and further. —Alexander Syndikas X X Photographic imagery is becoming more and more a point of de- parture; not an end in itseff. The integration of the hand-generated, and the “machine-generated image offers a wide range of picture- making possibilities to me. Drawing can embellish or alter the photographic image, it can directly correspond to or neutralize the subject matter It can contradict or eradicate the photograph. To mark or otherwise manipulate the photograph is an act which, for me, is liberating, ft denies the conventional idea of the fine print and redefines photography as a medium among many other media. Or, as Alex Sweetman has said, ... all media are potentially interdependent aspects of one vast picturemaking activity —Christopher Harrold I always consider the Halloid- Xerox machine as a copier machine. When I work with it, I think of its ability to record and render the finite detail of the image. This is, by the way, a kind of excitement when I handle the machine. This is again, because, in the first stage of the process, the latent image is always fugitive. The formation of the image then depends on “the manor’1 of the toner (toners) and the nature of the fixation. The fine detail of the final image that appears in a print will solely correspond to these factors. Besides that, while working with this machine I am conscious of getting a series of identical editions — which always is impossible. All of these con- ditions give me a special kind of challenge and motivation while handling this unique machine. —Ismail Abdullah Sometimes I feel the need to put things Together. Sometimes they are words in different Combinations, Sometimes they are pictures (photographs) with drawings Included. She told me that they looked fine so I Gathered Fragmented parts of us and Reconstructed What I thought constituted pictorial reality; Congregated Under an arm. a Group Of pictorial realities, sometimes called a visual Folio — A spontaneous flocking Of my mind’s visualness. The struggle of the creative-self within me causes the creation of images — a sort of purging of my creative mentalness. To rid myself of crazy ideas I write, make men- tal notes, draw, photograph, and combine. 1 often speak of my statements as if they belong to someone else, although I realize that they are extremely autobiograph- ical. I have a conscious craving to be consumed in metaphor, to be spoken of and about in the vocab- ulary of my other self. —Larry D. Lean C X vva- P- Photography when first invented had many limitations. One major restriction was its lack of color, to which hand coloring' affected an alternative, Prior to the introduction of color photography, hand coloring was used to achieve realism in the photographic image. Applied color was not considered an art but a profession, and prospered in the commercial studios. Coloring or drawing on photographs is still flourishing, but the motivation has changed. Currently, the trend is toward the other extreme, to transcend reality, to the unearthly and or the blatant use of color. I feel the combination of the photographed and hand-worked elements of the picture creates an exciting visual irony. The individuality ot each photograph is one of my major con- cerns. Through the use of selective colors (photo oils) on toned black and white prints, I can translate the apparent photographic reality into my own personal vision. I can go beyond what the camera has done. —Silvia Lizama Glenn Treffeisen Jeanne Arnold Anne Marie Punzr Ruth Vaughan Frank Towner Stephanie Cimino Malt Handy Steve Guy Joyce Livingstone Aliza Orent Rene Palumbo Rosemary Mall Dan Taylor Brian Murphy Tom Lindsay Dan Chidester John Kovaleski Barbara Fox Shawn Williams Pamela Susan Hawkins Cindy S.

Processing Center ACADEMIC DIMENSION Applied Science and Technology My main attraction to RIT is the Cooperative work-study program. I believe that it is beneficial to both the student and the company participating. For the student, on-the-job experience allows for personal growth in that one leams how to apply the knowledge obtained while attending college. Also, one leams how to provide for the future needs of a technical field. The Co-op program is beneficial to an establishment because the student can be an investment. The company may prepare the student for employ- ment immediately after graduation; the student then becomes an asset to the company. As a direct result, RIT profits by building or maintaining a good reputation as a contributor of these assets. 178 I came to RtT in 1977. I had been employed as a professor and an administrator at two universities prior to coming here. Both of the institutions were much larger and, according to some standards, more sophisticated than the Institute. However, the past four years here have convinced me that no institution of higher education in the US has more spirit, more drive, and more opportunity to move to the forefront in technological education than RIT. When I first arrived, I was caught up in the vigor and vitality that is shared by all of the employees of the Institute. This total commitment to the place makes me feel good about being here. Our close linkages with the business and industrial marketplace, the entrepreneurial zest which is ingrained in the very roots of the Institute, and the excitement of new curriculum development typifies an institution with tremendous potential for the future. I personally believe that RIT is an educational institution that does not suffer from the majority of problems that hamper the growth and potential academic excitement of the vast majority of other colleges and universities in the US. I am proud to be a part of RIT. 180 Sugforto Adhmar� Bachelor of Technology Civil Engineering Josephs Albanese Bachelor of Technology Electrical Engineering P«p M.

Tain Bachelor of Technology Computer Science woods 188 189 Business degree iraBusiness Foods Administration is offered at co! eges Fortunately, RIT bes offer tipdegree and also maintains Jfeh standards for its curricuiuflf The required courses reiate directly to my needs in the future and the electives allow me to ej$and my knowledge in specific arefis that I am interested in. Many pie feel that foods is an easy ogram, but I must disagree. The ab hours are long, the homework tedious, but without a doubt, each course has been interesting. The Co-op program also gave me the opportunity to step out into the business world before I receive my degree. Not only does the experience help you in getting future jobs, but it also teaches you responsibility and increases your awareness as to what will be expected of you in the future. I have only two regrets about RIT; the first is that it has taken so long to decide to renovate and expand the Foods Department; the second is that only 3 or 4 food companies are invited to the Central Placement Service each quarter I've enjoyed the smallness of RIT and my department, and feel that the program and Co-op experience have successfully prepared me for my job search. 190 Virginia DeGroff at the Marriott Hotel - I believe the most attractive feature of RIT to be its emphasis on applying theoretical knowledge to the practical problems faced by today’s organizations. The practical content of courses, the problem focus of research and the direct service provided to business and other organizations are all aspects of the special challenge of a college determined to have a real impact on the professional effectiveness of its students, and through them, on society's organizations. 192 Jeffrey Ama do Bachelor of Science Business Administration Uw L.

One factor that I had not considered was that by being exposed to different aspects of engineering at different Co-ops, I was able to decide what type of engineering to enter, Originally, I had been interested in mechanics, dynamics, moving parts, etc. Since working at Energy House, however, and being exposed to solar energy, solar heat transfer, and the design of solar energy systems, I have become more interested in the thermal fluid sciences. My Co-ops at RIT Research Corporation have proven to be very useful to me in setting my overall future goals. I feel that attending RIT and progressing through the Co-op program has helped me mature as an adult, more so than if I had attended a traditional school. Work blocks give you a chance to work and communicate with professionals, something a normal 4-year school wouldn’t offer. The one gripe I have concerning the Co-op program is that the 10 week period of employment is not long enough to get substantially involved with some engineering work, 1 think C3V that two work blocks back to back would work better than alternating 10 weeks of work with 10 weeks of school. Although I will graduate a year later than I had initially planned, I will have approximately one year of engineering experience under my belt when I start my search for permanent employment. This experience, combined with an engineering degree from RIT, helps me feel that my future is in good hands. 202 Dick Shelton at Energy House. I came to RIT beacuse it combined exciting academic programs with a refreshing understanding and relationship with the world of business and industry beyond the campus. I'm still here, and just as excited as I was twelve years ago, because RIT remains one of the most innovative and alive campuses in the nation. If you have good ideas and the willingness to work hard for them, they can most often be implemented in the progressive environment of RIT and Rochester. Our curricula in Engineering, it seems to me, reflect the reality of the rapidly advancing world of technology while preserving the integrity and the timelessness of the best in the academic community. One of the main characteristics of RIT that makes it attractive to me and others on the faculty is that as we grow academically through our scholarship, and grow we do, it is without the concomitant growth in academic stuffiness that so often gets in the way at other institutions. 204 Douglas W.

The limited facilities in my direct area (blacksmithing) encouraged me to acquire knowledge from another source. This led me to Albert Paley’s studio, where knowledge and growth is unlimited in my field. The experience has been so rewarding that I have decided not to complete my degree, but to continue with my direction. Even though I have not graduated, the Institute played a large part in helping me find a career. 212 Albert Paley Studio. Michael Ficalora ai Guides1� ' RIT is a family” kind of institution. People matter. It is career oriented and down to earth. It provides opportunities for each of us to contribute and grow, it serves our society and can serve emerging third world countries with much needed technology. It is a strong institution. It mixes technology and design, art and craft. It encourages intellectual permit as well as the mastery of skill. It’s great!

In comparing RIT with other colleges within a 100 mile radius, I feel that RIT offers the best BSW program. I think my particular program measures up very well to my expec- tations It will give me the best background possible to go into my F chosen profession of Social Work. One of the challenges RIT presents to me is the chance to stimulate my mind and broaden my perspectives about people. Another is going to the library here to explore the pros and cons of current controversial issues. RIT has contributed to my personal growth by giving me the opportunity to be in the environment of diverse minority groups who have different ideas and concerns. A few things I dislike about RIT are the high cost of tuition, the fact that required courses for my program are not offered all quarters, and the requirement that I pay a student health fee even though I am an off campus student and have my own health insurance, etc. As a Social Work student completing my field placement as an Ombudsman, an advocate for the elderly, I have developed an awareness of the many problems that patients encounter while living in long-term care facilities. It has been a rewarding experience for me to be a part of a problem solving team trying to enhance the quality of life for patients in nursing homes. The successful use of the skills I learned at RIT and through the Ombudsman program have adequately prepared me to assist my clients. ChrtJssier Pearl ie Trotter ai the Mariner House 221 At heart I am a teacher ot literature and writing. I came to RIT in 1969 because I particularly wanted to teach RIT students who are not majoring in the liberal arts the enduring value of literature and of social and humanistic thought. I hunger to see RIT men and women develop the whole potential of their minds and hearts. This is of course an educational struggle for General Studies teachers and for their RIT students who tend, at first, to be too narrowly focused on a too narrow conception of their future lives and careers, and to undervalue the full capacities of their minds. But it is an extremely rewarding moment when, for example, an engineering student realizes what poetry or painting means to him, when a woman majoring in accounting gets awakened to the reality of international politics or the impact of American history, and when an art student starts to care more deeply and knowledgeably about the dynamics of the U.S. economy or the social consequences of technology. 1 1 am particularly proud of the students who pursue Social Work and Criminal Justice degrees in our College. These men and women are powerfully motivated by social and human concerns. They are headed toward careers primarily in the “not for profit sector of our society. That intention runs counter to the profit orientation of much of our society, yet these students enter the ancient pro- fessions dedicated to social order, the common good, and human betterment. Their future work will directly benefit many individuals and the society as a whole. For me the true test of our students' General Studies education will come many years after their graduation. Will they then appreciate the beauty ol music or architecture? Will they take an intelligent, responsible part in the political process? Will they respect the natural environment of this planet9 Will they know how to reason critically when faced with difficult choices? Will their happiness and personal peace be founded on a sound understanding of human and social realities? Will they be mature, wise professionals in their chosen careers? Will they know how to use their leisure time in the fullest human way? RIT has contributed immensely to my own personal growth because I believe profoundly in life-long learning, and I have learned so much here — from students and colleagues. What I admire most about RIT is the strenuous daily effort RIT faculty make to be good teachers and scholars, and the great desire they have that students learn as much as possible of what is so worth learning.

Wood Bachelor of Sctence Criminal Justice 225 Graphic Arts and Photography During my years at RIT I have found very few reasons to be disappointed in their academic offerings, but in many other aspects, RIT leaves a lot to be desired. The most disappointing and aggravating part of this school is its attitude toward the students. While in high school we were disillusioned by RIT's recruitment staff (whose tactics, I feel, resemble those of a used car salesman), but upon arrival find we are nothing but a number to the administration. We are treated as such until we become alumni, at which point we are asked to contribute generously to help support the same stifled, apathetic atmosphere we experienced while attending. On a more positive note, I think RIT's Co-op plan should be highly commended. For me, the Co-op experience has been the most instructive part of my education so far. it has enabled me to utilize and organize that which I have already learned and has given me a better grasp on my future educational and career goals. Although I do not regret my years here at RIT, I somehow think the school administrators should be more considerate of the needs of the students, especially when considering the investment we have put into our education here.

As a student it was possible to innovate in many different ways through the various media, clubs, and organizations, I was Associate Editor for the Techmila in 1948 and Editor-in-Chief in 1949, In 1946 there was an enormous influx of WWII veterans who were quite vigorous in their outlook on life, and I found RIT to be a lively place to be. After working in the printing industry for 10 years after my graduation, I returned to RIT to obtain a Bachelor of Science degree. After completing that Degree and a Masters degree, RIT hired me for the School of Printing faculty. While on the faculty, I found that there were still many ways for one to innovate and RIT continued to offer the climate for this to happen. The Institute gave me assistance and a leave to obtain a Ph.D. degree. It allowed me to formulate a masters program for the School of Printing. As a faculty member I was able to start four or five new courses, and as Director of the School, the faculty and I instituted three new baccalaureate programs. We feel that these programs are the best offered in graphic arts today, and the printing industry’s satisfaction can be measured by the extremely high employment rate of our students. It is my firm belief that the RIT climate continues, in large measure, to allow for innovation and provides an exciting and friendly climate in which to be employed. The atmosphere which is generated is one which cannot always be found in other areas of employment! 228 Wilbam J. Alberti Bachelor ol Science Printing Management Donald C.

RIT is one of two colleges that can provide the support J can benefit from, but RIT is the only college that really allows for integration between the hearing and the deaf. I remain here because my Social Work program has a good reputation, and also because I love the people and the theatre here. From what I understand, statistics show that graduates in my field have readily found jobs in a variety of service areas in government, education, and law. Apparently, my curriculum measures up to professional standards very well and I am proud of it. I am also very proud of being able to help ■fiers help themselves. For the past five years, RIT has r given me a greater sense of confidence and a greater feeling of responsibility for myself and others. I have had the opportunity to become more self-sufficient. I have had the responsibility of leadership in government, student activities, and in my major. The greatest challenge RIT presents to me is perhaps one of deeper and fuller integration between the two populations, and one of reducing boundaries between people of different cultures, backgrounds, and communication facilities. I also find it very challenging when I try to communicate my feelings and thoughts to my hearing peers and staffs. However, it has been a very rewarding experience for me to meet different individuals here at RIT. I do think that perhaps the curriculum here can be too confining. In the past, there has been no opportunity for credit in Manual Communications courses, thus hearing friends have limited opportunity for aid that would help or encourage them into reverse-mainstreaming activities. I do like the good relationships I have developed with other students very much. I love the freedom to test myself; I mean to grow or to fail. I love NTID Theatre very much, and also like several of the teachers who really care! 245 Matthew Moore at the Office of Vocational Rehabilitation. Helping in the establishment of the National Technical Institute for the Deaf was what brought me to RIT in April 1968; and the continuing growth and development of NTID remains my chief challenge fourteen years later. In addition, two years ago I assumed a vice presidential responsibility for RIT’s program of Creative Arts in Complimentary Learning, and in January of this year I assumed a vice presidential responsibility for RIT’s programs in cooperative work experience, senior placement, and career education research. Assumption of these three responsibilities has given me the opportunity to develop expertise in deafness, in technical education, and in given aspects of student life. It is my opinion that the curricula of RIT, including those of NTID, continue to match up well with industrial standards and, for that reason, job placement for graduates remains at a very high percentage level. I like that about RIT. If there is something not to be liked about RIT it is probably the overall lack of community spirit, but that can be changed. P £os l£jU- 246 Karen Ambrifi MS Medical Records.

No other college that 1 was interested in had a work-study program in Biology, It is a very diversified field of study and specialization is necessary. Co-op is giving me a chance to evaluate my options in research and industry first hand. In the College of Science, I am continually challenged academically; at the same time, the RIT community challenges me socially. Through these challenges, especially in my curriculum, I am provided with the background I will need to attend graduate school. 250 In its dual role as a college granting undergraduate and graduate degrees in over ten different fields of study as well as providing support science and mathematics courses for nearly every RIT student, the College of Science is an integral part of both the foundations and the programatic structure of this institution. The faculty of the College of Science are committed to not only quality classroom-laboratory instruction but, also, research and other professional activity beyond the classroom. These commitments form the basis of our educational philosophy in that we believe that the eventual beneficiary of these types of activities and commitments is the student. 252 Kevin Belfield Albert Biega Denise Blaszcyk Cynthia Briggs Matthew Bryant James Carey Bachelor ol Science AAS Bachelor of Science Bachelor of Science Bachelor of Science Bachelor ol Science Chemistry Russian Nuclear Medicine Biology Chemistry Chemistry Susan Chen Bachelor of Science Biology Thomas Edwards Bachelor of Science Biology Glenn Fehr Bachelor of Science Math Ray Gibson Bachelor of Science Physics Terry Hahn Bachelor of Science Physics Brian Haynes Bachelor Science Medical Technology Jeanne C.

New York. Techmila 1982 was printed by offset lithography by the Delmar Company, Charlotte, North Carolina on substance 80 and 100 Warren Cameo Dull coated paper and substance 70 Champion Carnival uncoated paper. Headlines were typeset in Lubalin Graph medium and extra light. Body copy and picture captions were set in Helvetica medium and light, and News Gothic Condensed bold and regular. Special thanks to; Susan Brown, RIT Student Directorate secretary; Bill Sloane, John Sequerth, and Jim Hunter of the Delmar Company; Laurie Pask; John Walley; Sam Abrams, GS Faculty; Symposium; Joan Hantz, CFAA Faculty; Jim Castelein, RIT Communications; Gault Piper, Duane Hanson, Howard Levant, and John Retallack, SPAS Faculty; Tim Toothman, NTID; and Dan-o. The question most frequently asked of the Techmila (pronounced Tek-MILL- uh) staff this year was 1 ‘What does Techmila mean? The simpliest answer we could give was that literally, Techmila means technology speaks. The name Techmila was originated with the 1945 issue. Prior to that time. Techmila was known as the Ramikin, and RIT was the Rochester Athenaem and Mechanics Institute. Regardless of the name chosen, this institute has always been oriented toward the future, meeting and commanding any trends in the technical fields of tomorrow. Technology does speak, and Techmila is but one of its many voices. Each of us fortunate enough to belong to RIT comprises a unique dimension to the voice of technology. © Copyright 1982, RIT Student Directqiate
