Through it all we ' ve man- aged to laugh together, love together, cry together, party together, and grow together. It takes people to put the life into college living. Individuals with differ- ent backgrounds, different outlooks, different goals, and different expecta- tions. Each one of us discovered that life at G.S.C. As we matured we be- came a part of that life — student life. Some weeks were so tough we thought they would never end . . . struggling through exams and just try- ing to get out of bed for that 9:30 class. However, as we now look back, the time seems to have slipped through our fingers. New doors have been opened for us. We now look out onto new horizons. Some of us will stay, and some will travel far, but where ever we may end up, the memories of G.S.C. will remain with us forever. 10 Student Life Student Life Student Life 13 14 Student Life this ride no, recommended for guests with heart conditions, high blood pressure or expectant mothers Student Life 19 20 Student Life Student Life 21 G.S.C.

Camden Campus 25 26 Camden Campus Camden Campus 27 ....... -i - — We all have a need to feel we be- long. A need to find a place where we can loosen up and be ourselves. We need a place where we can share our individuality and work together to reach a common goal instead of struggling alone to make a grade . Many GSC students filled that need through campus clubs and organiza- tions. The clubs and organizations of- fered an outlet for people to express ideas, dreams and images without the restriction of a classroom. They were places where individuals could voice their opinions and put plans into ac- tion ... a place where students could make changes. 28 Organizations ORGANIZATIONS Student Government Association President Michael Collins Executive VP Rick Kramer Second VP Paul Capelli Treasurer lames Gray Secretary Melissa Field SFCB Chair Meghan Maynard PR Director Brian Hujdich Statewide Team Chair Sue Guggenheim Camden Campus Liaison Floyd Holt Senate Chair Tom Murtha Advisor Robert Zazzali SGA establishes a coordinating body for all student activities, pro- motes the general welfare of the student body, and represents all students as they relate to the college or higher education system of New Jersey. 30 Organizations Student Financial Control Board Chairman — Meghan Maynard Asst.

Everything they do wrong is magnified, and every- thing they do right is glorified. Rarely do they go unnoticed. The Greeks have always had a mys- terious aura about them. There are tales of frightening pledge periods and fantastic parties that every soror- ity and fraternity can tell. While there are those who are in- different to Greeks and those who don ' t care for them at all, you can bet that those who pledge brotherhood or sisterhood take it seriously and really are loyal to the Greek society. Greeks on this campus, while they too have their share of harsh judg- ments passed, are, for the most part, concerned about and aware of cam- pus happenings. One need only go to an event and he ' ll find that many of the people supporting it and encour- aging participation are Greeks. This year saw the Greeks making adjustments. Pledging was toned down a bit due to controversial new rules, and there was migration onto campus by Alpha Phi Delta, Sigma Phi Epsilon and Delta Zeta. The three Greek organizations moved into Laurel and Oak. But wait ... no alcohol is allowed in dorms. No beer at a fraternity party? That ' s like the fourth of July with no fire- works. Not to worry . . . where there ' s a will there ' s a way, and you can rest assured that the Greeks found a way. 58 Greeks GREEKS Greeks 59 60 B.O.G.O.

Most of us, as spectators, size up the team only by the number of wins and losses, the number of goals or points, or by the number of All-Stars on a particular team. What we don ' t see are the long and sometimes grueling daily practices. We don ' t see the coach reaching deep inside to find a way to get all he or she can from the team. We don ' t see a team ' s progress as communication between the players and coaches becomes more finely tuned. We don ' t see the sacrifices made by the players, coaches and their families. What we see by attending the sporting events, and by reading about Glassboro ' s teams in newspapers, are the teams ' victories and losses, the conference and the league standings, and the teams ' performances. In short, we see the results of all the intangibles — dedication, motivation, and the will to compete. While, as spectators, we some- times lost sight of all but the teams ' obvious successes ' and failures, what we mean to say is, We ' re behind you. We appreciate your hard work, and that ' s why we want to share it with you. 70 Sports SPORTS Sports 71 Cheerleaders It was a completely different style this year, said co-captain Tricia Mor- gan of the 1984-85 GSC cheerleaders ' season. This was due, in part, to the addition of two male cheerleaders to the squad. Rather than singing cheers, the squad performed cheers that were forceful and to the point. They incorporated mounts this season that were different from last season, and also performed lifts — something unique to this season ' s squad. The squad ' s repertoire consisted of about 100 sideline cheers, 10 long cheers, or floor cheers, and two dance routines to use throughout the season. The GSC cheerleaders work very hard to prepare for the football and varsity basketball seasons, planning cheers during the summer and then returning a week before the start of school to practice nine hours a day. They practice at least twice a week during the football season and travel to every home and away game — that can mean two or three games per week during the basketball sea- son in addition to finding time to prac- tice. 72 Cheerleaders Cheerleaders 73 Baseball The Prof Baseball team swept the Southern Regional Tournament competition when they won three games straight, capturing the dou- ble-elimination tournament with- out a loss. This gave Glassboro a spot in the Division III World Se- ries—a competition GSC hadn ' t seen since 1979. Unfortunately, the Profs were eliminated in the first two games at the hands of the Number 1 and 2 ranked teams. Named to the All-Tourney team for their efforts in the Regional play were Jeff Groves, Kevin Healy, Tom Troost, Rich Datz, Pat Murray, Mike McKeever and John LaRosa. The 1984 season also saw senior Jim Paulsen break the career home run record when he hit his twenty- sixth against Kutztown. Paulsen then went on to belt in two runs breaking the 1979 RBI record of 47. 74 Baseball Golf Coach Richard Wackar had confi- dence in his team from the time they returned from pre-season tourney ac- tion in Florida, and he was not disap- pointed. The Prof golf team finished with a 13-5 dual match record led by freshmen O.J. juhl and Tim Carlson, both of whom were named to the New Jersey Athletic Conference All- Star second team. 76 Golf Lacrosse The 1984 Lacrosse squad saw their first post-season playoff action since 1980 when they faced Cordtland and season opponent Swarthmore. Swarthmore was the second of the Profs ' games in the U.S. Women ' s La- crosse Association Division III Invita- tional Collegiate Lacrosse Champion- ship. A loss to Cordtland dropped the Profs to the consolation round where they lost to Swarthmore 7-6. Coach Penny Matthews looked forward to a .500 mark, but the wom- en ' s final record was 7-5-1. The Lady Profs boasted an unstoppable offense led by Sheila Howard, Jean Devanney, Janice Martin, Janet Sweeney, Renee Cioffi, and Lisa Wilkins, who leaves the Profs with 67 goals. Elaine Ellis also had a very solid season in the goal. Lacrosse 77 Men ' s Tennis The Men ' s Tennis Team netted a successful season, capturing the New Jersey State Athletic Conference title. Highlighting their season was an 8-1 victory over Montclair after handing Ramapo College an 8-1 defeat also. In the Ramapo match, the Profs won five of six singles matches and all three doubles matches. Stan Celia ' s squad shut out Rutgers Camden 9-0 after bouncing back from a 7-2 loss to Salisbury. 78 Men ' s Tennis Men ' s Track Field Another successful season for Coach Oscar Moore as the Prof team won their fifth consecutive NCAA Di- vision III track and field champion- ship—an accomplishment unique to GSC. Many of the qualifications for Nationals came at the Colonial Relays where GSC was one of a few non- Division I schools. All American honors this season went to Anthony Stone, Ron Moore, Robert Abdullah, Ed Lamhing, Ron Deckert, Don Deckert, Robert Rimkis, Len Hernandez, Peter Sharpless and Mark Tucker. Four National Championships also came out of the 1984 season. Don Deckert won the honors in the 3000 meter steeplechase while Ron Deck- ert claimed the 5000 meter run. The 1600 meter relay team of Anthony Stone, Ron Moore, Robert Abdullah and Ed Lamhing earned a National championship as did Peter Sharpless in the 110 meter high hurdle event. Men ' s Track 79 Women ' s Track Field Finishing second overall in the Divi- sion III Conference Championships, the 1984 GSC Women ' s Track team has good reason to be proud of its season. In the meeting of the State colleges, Nancy Buhrer ' s team was second only to Trenton and came away with plenty of individual victo- ries. Emma Painter ' s javelin throw, Kathy Wherry ' s 5,000-meter and Jennifer Rainey ' s 10,000-meter runs were all first place performances at the com- petition. The Profs finished their con- ference record at 3-1 and faced ten Division I teams this season. 80 Women ' s Track Softball This was a growing season for the Lady Profs who finished 9-21 overall and 3-9 in the New Jersey State Ath- letic Conference. Cathy Kunz be- came the softball team ' s new head coach, Roseanne Parzanese graduat- ed from the diamond to assistant coach, and nine new players took the places of four graduates. The Profs had problems keeping in control under pressure, but when they won, they won big. Beth Kerr led the team to a 3-2 victory in extra in- nings against Fairleigh Dickinson Uni- versity— Teaneck. And in that wave of confidence GSC went on to defeat Ramapo College 16-0 and 18-9 in a double header. Finally, after a disap- pointing loss to Division III leader, Trenton, the Lady Profs came back to take Seton Hall 7-3. Softball 81 Women ' s Tennis Although this season wasn ' t as suc- cessful as Coach Rod Norris had hoped for his Women ' s Tennis Team, he has much to look forward to in his team ' s underclassmen. The Netters finished off the season with a win as Alexis Korsak, Louisa t Reider, Pat Fralinger, and Terry £ McCormick won singles matches against Kean College. McCormick f f f f jfl was joined by Jeanette Corsino to ; ; ' ; capture the doubles win along with imLUt - Reider and Fralinger. 82 Women ' s Tennis Field Hockey f CI . . ■ I I H •4 — • a. „ The Glassboro State Women ' s Field Hockey Team produced an outstand- ing 1984 season. Seniors Mary Dam- mingo, Bonnie Donovan, Denise El- dridge, Connie Ewing and Beth Kerry paced the Lady Profs to an 11-5 re- cord and a second place finish in the Jersey Athletic Conference Standings. A pair of losses came at the hands of National Collegiate Athletic Associ- ation Champions Trenton State as Glassboro finished 6-2 in the Confer- ence. Renee Cioffi, Caroline Cioffi, Connie Ewing and Bonnie Donovan were named to the jersey Athletic Conference All-Conference Team. Field Hockey 83 Football The Profs had a good shot at the New Jersey State Athletic Conference championship this season but unfor- tunately were hampered by inconsis- tency. However, the gridders turned in an excellent performance before the Homecoming Day crowd, defeat- ing William Paterson in a come-from- behind victory 33-20. Earlier in the season, Ted Kershner ' s Profs defeated Ramapo 31-16, Trenton State in a close game at 15-14, and jersey City in a shutout 23-0. 1 : ■ 84 Football For the first time ever Glassboro ' s Women ' s Volleyball Team captured the Jersey Athletic Conference Cham- pionship. Coach Penny Matthews ' team came away with the title and a 5-1 victory in the Golden Dome Tour- ney, victories over rivals Stockton and jersey City and a first-place finish in the JAC. Now that ' s coming a long way for a team that ' s never before finished any place but last. The Lady Profs ended the season with a winning 26-10 overall record and an 8-1 record in the JAC. What was the best thing about the 1984 Lady Profs Volleyball Squad? Just about everyone will return to play next season! 86 Women ' s Volleyball Women ' s Cross Country Pam Okolita and Kathy Wherry paced Nancy Buhrer ' s Women ' s Cross Country Team this season as it placed thirteenth in the National Col- legiate Athletic Association Division III Mideast Regional meet. The runners placed an impressive third in the sev- en-team NjAlAW Championship be- hind Rutgers University and Trenton State. And in the Jersey Athletic Con- ference Meet, Glassboro placed sec- ond only to Trenton State. Standouts like Wherry, Okolita, Ka- ren Bogart, Jennifer Rainey, Sue O ' Toole, and Margaret Ginter bol- stered the Lady Profs as they im- proved steadily throughout the sea- son.  Women ' s Cross Country 87 At mid season, a 5-2 victory over the Academy of the New Church Col- lege was the highlight of the Men ' s Ice Hockey Team ' s season. In that game, Scott Marsden fired in two goals for the Profs, while Bob O ' Donnell, Steve Ruggerio and Tom Borkowski each scored one. The squad ' s record stood at 2-5-2 in the Delaware Valley Colle- giate Hockey Conference. The sec- ond of the two wins came to the Profs due to a forfeit. Tom Borkowski claimed the most points scoring 5 goals and 5 assists. The 1985 season marks the alumnus Bruce Lawrence ' s first as head coach of the GSC Ice Hockey team. Scott Marsden, Joe Hunter, Bob MacEwen, joe Mullen, Lewis Gambl and Mike Fleck were the squad ' s senior mem- bers. Ice Hockey 88 Ice Hockey Winter Track The men ' s indoor track and field team ' s outstanding performances in the first two warm-up meets of the season at Princeton University set the pace for the rest of the season. Pitted against a majority of Division I teams in the New Jersey College Champion- ships, Willie Lawson, who gained Ail- American status during the outdoor season, placed second in the 500 me- ter run to qualify for the Vitalis Olym- pic Meet held in the Meadowlands. He also qualified for the OA ' s. Coach Moore was also proud of his relay team ' s success at the state meet when they finished third. Outstand- ing performances were given by Andy Sokolowski and Robert Pyott at the states as well. At the Princeton Relays, GSC took third place both in the sprint medley and the mile relay. Among Division I schools at the relays, GSC ' s Pyott placed eighth in the 300 meter run. Following the Princeton Relays, Coach Oscar Moore looked forward to the OA ' s and the National Colle- giate Athletic Association meets. Winter Track 89 Men ' s Cross Country An 11th consecutive New Jersey State Athletic Conference dual meet championship was claimed, a conference win streak was stretched to 50 meets, and a 59-meet win streak was halted by Rider College. You could say that is was an eventful season for the GSC harriers and coach Bill Fritz. They finished 6-1 in the dual meet season. The Profs placed third in the New jersey College Champion- ships, Ron Deckert placed first and Don Deckert second. All- Conference honors were claimed by John Montgomery in fourth place, Jim Lauck in seventh and Andy Hart in eighth. At what coach Fritz called the Profs ' best meet of the year, Glassboro captured the National Collegiate Athletic Association Division III Mideast Regional championship. Sophomore Don Deckert earned the individual honors, making this meet the fourth consecutive time the individual title was captured by a GSC runner. In the same meet, John Montgomery finished sev- enth, Tim Peters eighth, and Jim Lauck was eighteenth. And although the Profs finished eighth in the NCAA Division III National Championship meets, Ron Deckert earned All Ameri- can honors, Don Deckert finished 29th, A. J. Bruder was 78th, Andy Montgomery 91st, Jim Lauck, 109th, Bob Pyott 168th, and Tim Peters 176th. Ohio Wesleyan hosted the nation ' s 21 best teams for this national championship. 90 Mens Cross-Country Women ' s Gymnastics Injuries hampered the women ' s gymnastics squad this season leaving them three or four members short of a full team at each meet. However, Sue Levy, a versatile gymnast, was able to compete in all of the team ' s events. Tracey Engell ' s exceptional skill on the balance beam made that event GSC ' s strongest according to coach Gillespie. Women ' s Gymnastics 91 Wrestling It was a season of rebuilding for the Prof grapplers. Although they began the season with losses to Rutgers- Newark and Delaware State, a victory over Newport-News Apprentice Col- lege got them back on their feet. GSC suffered a 27-11 loss to Trenton State but went on to claim a three-match winning streak over Wagner, Kean and Salisbury State. Later in the sea- son, a win over Rutgers-Camden upped their New )ersey State Athletic Conference record to 2-3, followed by victories over Elizabethtown and Swarthmore and then a loss to Dela- ware. Leading the Profs this season was captain Blair Mullen at 144 pounds who had wrestled to a 15-1 record by the end of the Elizabethtown- Delaware Swarthmore meet. At the same time, Ed Spinelli ' s mark was at 14-3-1, and Jeff Jansen claimed a 7-3 record. 92 Wrestling Women ' s Swimming After a 77-60 victory over Bryn Mawr, coach Donna O ' Leary ' s wom- en ' s swim team took Salisbury State 64-54 and then dropped meets to Frostburg, 60-76, and Towson, 63-72. Senior Connie Ewing qualified early in the Profs ' season for the National Collegiate Athletic Association ' s Na- tional test capturing the 200 breast- stroke at 2:34.38 and the 100 breast- stroke at 1: 10.8 during a meeting with Towson, Frostburg State and Salisbury State. Also capturing a first place award against Towson was Lynn German in the 500 free. Women ' s Swimming 93 Men ' s Swimming A lot of hard work went a long way for Tony Lisa ' s Prof swimmers this sea- son. Wins against Widener and Ram- apo not only assured the team of a winning season, but also brought their 11th consecutive New jersey State Athletic Conference title with a per- fect 4-0 conference slate. In addition, several squad members and a win- ning relay team qualified for the Na- tional Collegiate Athletic Association Division III National Championship meet. Their winning season wasn ' t sur- prising though, since the swimmers opened the season with 2 broken re- cords and eight personal best-ever ef- forts. Sophomore Greg Glover broke a seven year old GSC record when he swam the 200 freestyle event in 1:48.19. He went on to win the 500 freestyle at his personal-best 5:00.2. Kevin Franceschini won the 1000 freestyle with a personal record of 10:34 just after finishing second to Glover in the 500 with another per- sonal-best effort of 5:00.2. Also at Swarthmore, Darren Hick- man broke the 200 backstroke record with his time of 2:09.7, jeff Reeves captured the 50 free with a 22.9 time and john DiCara claimed the one-me- ter diving event with a 128.55 score. 94 Men ' s Swimming For Cathy Kunz ' s women ' s basket- ball squad it was a reconstruction sea- son as the team was plagued by inex- perience and the challenge of a new system. Almost at the close of the season after hosting Marymount Col- lege, the Profs stood at 7-12 while their Jersey Athletic Conference re- cord was 1-5 after defeating Rutgers- Camden. One highlight of the season was a thriller over Widener University. The other was, of course, junior Tammy Steele ' s 1000th career point scored when GSC visited Georgian Court College on December 20th. Only halfway through the season, Steele had plenty of time to become the all- time point leader at GSC by breaking the former record of 1032. Steele had a very impressive season averaging over 20 points per game and leading the team in ten statistics categories for most of the season. Senior guard Jayne Mauro also put in an impressive performance this sea- son sharing game-high scoring honors with sophomore Geri O ' Keefe when they each built up 28 points against Upsala. Mauro also averaged 20 points against both Kean and Mary- mount, with a 23-point effort against Kean. Women ' s Basketball 95 Men ' s Basketball Though coach Greg Ackles was pleased with the efforts given by the members of his 1985 squad, inexperi- ence and the inconsistency of a young, seniorless team hampered Glassboro ' s men ' s basketball team this season. The team ' s record looked like a see-saw through the first half of the season. After splitting a pair of games in the New Jersey State Athletic Con- ference — an 85-77 loss to Stockton State and a 46-45 victory over William Patterson College — GSC went on to trade wins and losses with the Univer- sity of Delaware, Kean, Ramapo, Widener, Rutgers-Camden, Mont- clair, Trenton State, Oberlin, and Mar- ietta. A five-game losing streak followed, but a pair of victories upped the Profs ' record to 7-10 overall and 5-7 in the NJSAC. junior Rod Davis showed his versa- tility by alternating between the guard and forward positions and car- ried a 14 point-per-game average. Sophomore Shawn Norwood reached a career high 29 points in the GSC-Ramapo contest. Men ' s Basketball 97 Soccer The men ' s soccer team finished with an excellent 1984 season. Although Coach Dan Cilmore and the Profs were disappointed at not participating in the National Collegiate Athletic Association Division III post-season tourney, the sea- son wasn ' t without its highlights. First of all, the Profs can boast a 14-4-2 record overall. Way back in the beginning of the season, Glassboro defeated St. Law- rence College and Scranton University to win the Nike Glassboro Invitational. The Profs went on to finish third at the Wheaton Invitational in Chicago. Also, six Glassboro players were named to the three New Jersey State Athletic Confer- ence All-Star teams. Kenny Le Munyon and Mike Adams were named to the first team, goalie Kurt Johnson to the sec- ond, and Tom Olbrich, Glen Chladik and Wayne Hogarth were named to the third team. Olbrich had a record tying 14 assists while Le Munyon led the team with 11 goals. 98 Soccer Soccer 99 A big change in Glassboro State College ' s Administration came about this year when the Board of Trustees announced the appointment of Dr. Herman lames as the college ' s fifth president. James took office a few weeks be- fore classes began in the fall. He start- ed his job at a time when the New Jersey Board of Higher Education be- gan discussing a controversial propos- al to unify New Jersey ' s nine state col- leges into a University of New Jer- sey . GSC also saw a reorganization in the administration in an effort to im- prove coordination and effective- ness. However, even in this year of rapid change and reorganization, there was one thing that did not change. Glass- boro still provided individual atten- tion. Professors who cared about their students ' education gave a part of themselves to each individual they taught. 102 Faculty and Administration FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION Dr. Herman James This year of change began with the appointment of Dr. Herman James as Glassboro State College ' s fifth presi- dent. Not only is James the first black president, but he is also the first presi- dent promoted from within the col- lege. James ' career background helped him to secure his seat in the presiden- tial search. He served as Associate Provost and Assistant Chancellor at the University of Massachusetts and as Vice-Provost at California State University before coming to Glass- boro. At Glassboro, he has served as Vice-President for Academic Affairs for the past two years. James holds a Bachelor of Science degree in education from Tuskegee Institute, a Masters degree in sociolo- gy from St. John ' s University and a Ph.D. in sociology from the University of Pittsburgh. James, his wife Marie, and their three children chose to take up resi- dence in Hollybush, the old campus mansion where President Lyndon B. Johnson and Soviet Premier Alexei N. Kosygin held their historic talks in 1967. We need to develop an educa- tional system which will recognize the kinds of rapid changes that are occur- ing in our society, says James. Most individuals will likely make major changes four or five times in their lives. We have to prepare students to be adaptable and to cope with this change. To Glassboro State College this change means looking at programs of the future, beyond the profession- al technical programs in the arts and sciences and the humanities, which will help the students to be more adaptive and be more critical in their thinking, James says. Herman James, 41, viewed his ap- pointment as a fulfillment of the American dream. I come from hum- ble beginnings. James grew up in Harlem and the East Bronx of New York City. He was one of nine children. When he was nine, his father died and his mother, Frances, took a job as a maid to sup- port the family. Of all the goals James hopes to achieve as president of G.S.C., he feels that improving the college ' s reputation both inside and outside the campus has priority. James summarized his plans for G.S.C. as an attempt to reverse a trend that he says has been common in many state colleges and universities in recent years — lack of enthusiasm among the students. I ' m hoping students won ' t want to miss out on the good things as they get their college education here, James said. I ' m hoping they ' ll come away feeling excited about the place. 104 Administration Lawrence Reader V.P. for Administration Finance Robert Collard Asst.

The lives of students are bombard- ed by the many stimuli in ways that shape and mold the personality for years to come. The people who affected our views of GSC are those who some- how ' stood out. ' They achieved goals, gained recognition and set standards. Perhaps it is through these people that many of us found the strength to achieve personal goals. From McDonalds to the Brewery, while we were there, Glassboro was our town. This is where we socialized and it ' s where we made lasting friend- ships. Indirectly, the places of The Boro helped us grow and change. World and National events play a major role in how we set goals, make decisions and deal with problems. This year we saw the first woman run for Vice President, and we saw terror on the faces of those facing famine in Ethiopia. While some things never change, this is one area that always will. The people, places and things that we consider important will be gone to- morrow. They ' ll be replaced by new achievers, new restaurants and new events. What we keep in our memo- ries depends on who we are and what we believe in, and to each of us those memories will be different. 120 P eople, Places Things People, Places, and Things People, Places Things 121 PEOPLE 122 People Who ' s Who This year, thirty-two students from GSC were named national outstanding leaders in the 1985 edition of Who ' s Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges. This is one of the most highly regarded and long- standing honor programs in the nation. It has earned the respect of college faculties and administrations. Selections to Who ' s Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges are made by a nominating committee made up of representatives from the student body, faculty and administration. Results are based on academic achievement, community service, extracurricular activities, leadership and potential for continued success. The following students join a group of students selected from more than 1,500 institutions of higher learning in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and several foreign nations.

The five seniors; Brian Hujdich, Lynn Chimento, Amy Frommer, Kara Nikles and Christie Martelli, were known as the Levi Five. They are members of Prac- tion, the student-run PR agency of the GSC chapter of the Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA). Out of a field of 14 finalists, narrowed from 40 schools, they took first place, beating student agencies from major universities including the University of Florida and West Virginia University. Glassboro was the only state college selected for the competition. Their challenge was to develop and execute a program to publicize Levi ' s 501 jeans on campus and in the metropoli- tan area. The group had two weeks to come up with a proposal and six weeks to execute it and report the results in written form. The group came up with the slogan, Live All Your Lives in Levi ' s 501 jeans. Their research concluded that the product wasn ' t viewed as an all-purpose jean that could fit most any occasion. We wanted to cure what we felt was a miscon- ception about the product, not just publicize it, explained Hujdich, the group ' s chairperson. They divided a typical student ' s life into five aspects — student, athlete, consumer, worker and socializer — then devised an event that would highlight each aspect. For the student role, they participated in a Library Day, burying a time capsule containing jeans and displaying a 501 jeans timeline. For the athlete, they entered a float in the homecoming parade (which took second place) and staged a Levi ' s 501 Olympics in which students, wearing huge, oversized jeans, competed in athletic events. The Great American Stitch-Off embodied the worker and consumer. Students, following the example of Dr. Her- man James, paid 10 cents to put a stitch in the world ' s largest pair of hand-stitched jeans. A fashion show was also held, unveiling Levi ' s hew holiday line, modeled by GSC Students. The Levi ' s 501 Blues Bash highlighted the socializer. Held in the Rat, the bash featured WYSP ' s jerry Abear. A check for $1,005.01, raised from the proceeds of all five events, went to the Vital Age Adult Day Care Center at — where else? — Jeanes Hospital in Philadelphia. The Levi Five received $750 for Praction by winning the competition. They were flown to Levi ' s San Francisco head- quarters to present their campaign to top company officials.

It was none other than ' Mr. Who, ' the official mascot of GSC doing all he could to ruffle referees ' feathers and encourage the GSC fans to cheer their team. While in 1983 a giant owl could often be seen strutting on the football field and basketball court for the Profs, he wasn ' t recognized as a mascot by the administration or Athletic Association until 1984. The Prof owl, who is Brian Kass by day, retired his homemade uni- form and now sports a disguise de- signed and created by a costumer. Our mascot works closely with Mrs. Edie Thompson and the GSC Cheerleaders to bring out the best in the GSC fans. In October, 1984, this GSC owl had a few feathers plucked when suggestions for this nameless bird flew the coop. The owl was a victim of vandalism when the Name the Owl ballot box was destroyed and ballots were stolen. The Prof owl was not amused with this stunt. I don ' t appreciate it when peo- ple take potshots at me, said Kass. Our mascot flies around stimulating crowd participation. It ' s probably one of the hardest jobs I could ever take. It ' s a tough job trying to please a lot of people. 126 People Spotlight; The P.R.O.S. The Peer Referral Orientation staff (P.R.O.S.) at GSC introduced itself to our campus this year. The P.R.O.S. began in spring 1984 when a group of 30 students were trained to take part in the freshmen ori- entation program. The students lived in dorms with incoming freshmen during the two-day long sessions. They helped the new students make the sometimes difficult transition to college life. After the orientation, Cindy Lynch, P.R.O.S. advisor and Assistant Director of GSC ' s Counseling Center, chose 13 students who would work at the P.R.O.S. Center during the school year. The students attended training ses- sions in which they learned how to as- sist peers with emotional, academic, and social misunderstandings . During the year, ongoing training sessions are held for the P.R.O.S. who must contin- ually brush up on their para-profes- sional counseling skills. According to Lynch, the premise is that students are more comfortable sharing their worries and information with their peers. Housed in Hawthorn Hall, the P.R.O.S. offer assistance with referrals, conflicts, complaints, studies, etc ... They also offer group discussions and private sessions. The P.R.O.S. program is the most personal satisfying activity I ' ve ever par- ticipated in, said Paul Capelli, a junior. While the P.R.O.S. is personally satis- fying for the students who act as peer counselors, that is not the only reason they exist. Sandi Smith, a senior Communica- tions major feels that being one student among thousands can be lonely. Knowing there are other students to whom they can turn when things go wrong or when questions arise is a very comforting feeling . . . That ' s what we ' re all about. The para-professionals who work at the P.R.O.S. Center are a mixture of vol- unteer, College Work study and Institu- tional Work Study students. They take their work very seriously and hope that as more classes enter GSC more stu- dents will take advantage of the ser- vices they offer. The success of this Center cannot and should not be measured by how many people come through these doors ... it should be measured by the quality of the time and effort we make for those people who do come to us, said Melissa Field, a junior Communica- tions major. We will be successful if we do this for no other reason than ' we care. ' People 127 PLACES 128 Places Welcome to Glassboro . . .

The articles on these pages re- flect both the good and the bad. Even with all its problems, 1984 wasn ' t all that bad. At least it wasn ' t like what George Orwell had suspected. ' 84 Going for the Gold For almost three weeks in July, the eyes of the world were on Los Ange- les, California. L.A. was hosting the games of the XXIIIrd Olympiad. The time leading up to the games were filled with controversy. First there were strong new drug tests put into effect. Then came the real controver- sy: the Soviet Union boycotted the games and their satellite nations quickly followed suit. The Soviets claimed that their athletes could not be protected. But once again, as in 1980 with the U.S. boycott of the Moscow games, politics interfered with athletics. The games however, renewed a spirit of patriotism and some say Na- tionalism. In the end, the United States had won an unprecedented 83 gold medals. Some people around the world called it the United States Olympics because of what they called biased coverage by the Ameri- can Broadcasting Co. The Olympics made us cheer as well as cry. Probably the best remem- bered moment was the perfect 10 scored by Mary Lou Retton in the women ' s gymnastics competition. The men gymnasts fared equally as well winning the gold in the team competition. Meanwhile, in the track and field competition, Carl Lewis from nearby Willingboro, N.j. won gold medals in the long jump, 100 meters, 200 me- ters, and the relay. The most painful moment came near the end of the games in the women ' s 3,000 meter competition, when Mary Decker from the United States, the favorite to win, tripped after being cut off by Zola Budd from Great Britian. Another American, Joan Benoit, won the Women ' s marathon. It was the first time that the event was of- fered in the Olympic games. All in all, the games ran smoothly due in part to thousands of volunteer workers. Murder at McDonalds For one day during the Summer Olympics, the games took a back seat in the news. At 4 p.m. on July 18 the worst one-man massacre in United States history took place. The setting was a crowded McDonalds fast-food restaurant in San Ysidro, California. That man, James Huberty, was an un- employed security guard. When it was over, Huberty had killed 21 peo- ple and wounded 19 more with the three weapons he was carrying. Hu- berty was killed by a SWAT Team sharpshooter. The people killed ranged in age from 8 months to 74 years. The 74 year-old-man was getting ready to celebrate his 50th anniversary. One man was only two days short of his retirement. Two pregnant women were killed and one woman had been working at McDonalds to pay her way through college. McDonalds corporation eventually tore down the building after the kill- ings and donated the land to the town of San Ysidro as well as $1,000,000 to the survivors fund.

Ronald W. Reagan, the 40th Presi- dent of the United States, ran unop- posed in his bid for the Republican nomination. The Democratic race for President was intriguing due to the fact that there were a dozen contenders at the beginning of the race. Soon, they dropped-off leaving only three; Gary Hart of Colorado, Jesse Jackson, and Walter Mondale. The three cam- paigned right up until the Democratic National Convention in June. Hart, fairly unknown to the general public, began building momentum for his campaign after his upset win in the New Hampshire primary on February 28. Hart proved to be the most popu- lar candidate among young people. Jackson, the black minister, ran his campaign on the premise of having a rainbow coali tion , where everyone would work together. Mondale, the ex-Vice-President and eventual winner merely stated the differences of the Democratic and Republican parties and ran on that platform.

Her son became the new Prime Minis- ter following her death. .3.  .--. % ■ ■ I Crisis in Ethiopia The famine in Ethiopia came to the attention of the whole world this year after a news reporter traveled to the country on the east coast of Africa. The pictures that followed in the next few months showed the horror of thousands of people starving to death. Governments, corporations, and individuals soon came to the aid of these people and began raising money to buy food and other neces- sities for the victims. Here at Glass- boro, the G.S.C. Hunger Appeal was formed for just that purpose.

For the first time ever, a woman was nominated for the position of Vice- President in a major political party. The woman picked was Geraldine Ferraro, a congresswoman from Queens, New York City. Ferraro, who had previously been a lawyer, was approved immediately at the Democratic National Convention. Airborne Along the campaign trail, Ferraro, an Italian Catholic, encountered many problems some related to her just being the first woman running for that posi- tion and also some personal problems. These problems included an investiga- tion of her finances and especially those of her husband, John Zaccaro. Another problem was a run-in with Bishop john O ' Connor of New York who did not approve of her position on abor- tion. Many Democrats hoped that a woman on the ticket would bring in a large woman ' s vote . The Republicans claimed that this was the only reason that Ferraro was picked and that she was not qualified for the job. It is hard to tell if Ferraro did indeed help the Democrats campaign because of the landslide victory by Ronald Rea- gan, who carried Ferraro ' s home state along with 48 others. This year, the publications said goodbye to another one of their fellow publications. The Airborne, the graphic arts magazine was dechartered due to a lack of members. It was the second publication in two years that was dechartered.

Pg. 4 A Reagan Landslide President Ronald Reagan won a re- sounding election in November, carrying forty-nine of the fifty states while his challenger, Walter Mondale carried only his home state of Minnesota and the District of Columbia. Reagan had been the fore-runner throughout the Presi- dential race and had a twenty percent lead in the popular vote. Experts ex- plained Reagan ' s strong showing by stat- ing that people felt that the economy was looking up, the nation was at peace, and the military was better prepared than it had been when Reagan took of- fice. Another key factor the experts be- lieved was the personal popularity of the President. In New Jersey, Reagan carried the state with a commanding lead, howev- er, many Democrats were elected to key positions. In the Senate race, incumbent Bill Bradley, the ex-basketball star won easily with more than a two-to-one mar- gin over Mary Mochary. In the U.S. Con- gress race, Democrats Jim Florio and Bill Hughes both won re-election. In many local races however, Republications fared much better and took away many seats that were previously held by Democrats.

Scandal Scandal rocked the Miss America pageant this year, when it was discov- ered that this year ' s Miss America, Vanessa Williams, had posed in the nude. The photographs were printed in Penthouse magazine just before the end of Miss Williams reign. Pageant officials forced Williams to resign and to turn in her crown because they felt that she had disgraced the image of Miss America: goodness, whole- someness, and sweetness. The new Miss America for 1985, Sharlene Wells, was a Mormon who played the harp. Many felt that the choice was an obvious attempt by pageant officials to bring back that image that was Miss America. Things 141 I Events at Glassboro State College are as changeable as the people who plan them and the people who take part in them. Chances are everyone will remember at least one event that he attended whether it was the Spring weekend that he had too good of a time at, or the Ballet that opened her eyes to a new form of art. Somehow, at every event, people were changed. The planners, the par- ticipators, and the performers were all affected, in some way, small or large, by the things they saw, did and shared. That ' s what events were all about, people sharing ideas, interests, and good times. Events . . . some successful, some unsuccessful, whether fun, enlighten- ing or inspiring played an integral part in creating the most cherished prize for college years . . . memories. 142 Events EVENTS Each day comes bearing its gifts.

Along with the students, Glassboro also bid fare- well to its president of 15 years, Dr. Chamberlain. Dr. Chamberlain was presented wth an honorary doctorate from the college. Chairman of the board of Trustees, Delbert S. Payne, presented Dr. Chamberlain with the degree commenting that Dr. Cham- berlain had made many outstanding contributions to the college. The presentation was kept a secret be- cause A pleasant surprise was to be received by the recipient. Dr. Cham- berlain expressed slight embarrass- ment and surprise when he realized what was taking place. The normally humble ceremony was livened by commencement speaker Frank J. Stone, associate di- rector of the Franklin Institute Science Museum and an adjunct instructor. He is a marketing and personnel de- velopment consultant and also regu- larly conducts inspirational and moti- vational workshops in effective com- munication for college audiences. With the enthusiasm of a television evangelist, Stone preached to the graduates about the importance of in- dividuality and their potential for growth and success. Act enthusiastic and you ' ll be en- thusiastic, Stone told the students. That is the one basic fundamental key to success; and it works everytime. Stone added, Tell yourself, ' until tomorrow, today is the best day of my life. ' Dr. Chamberlain said that he had felt a tinge of sadness about leaving Glassboro. He said his thoughts did not wander to past or future graduat- ing classes. ! was completely, 100 percent, focused on those good peo- ple here today. Graduation 145 146 Graduation Spring Weekend Yet another Spring Weekend passed by in ' 84, attracting about 3,000 people to its various activities. Mardi Gras ' 84, Bourbon Street in the Boro, was a proving ground of sorts. Because of past problems with alcohol and violence, this year saw stict drinking rules imposed. If one wanted to drink at the Sun- shine Jam, it was a matter of waiting in a very long line and proving one ' s age with two ID ' s. To make sure that no minors skipped the line, a fence sur- rounded the field reminding us all that Big Brother was watching to make sure little brother didn ' t drink. Saturday ' s Sunshine Jam, always the highlight of Spring Weekend, pro- vided GSC ' ers with some key enter- tainment. Robert Hazard headlined the musical lineup, and the New Edi- tion energized the crowd as Hazard ' s warm-up band. Over 200 students and friends at- tended Sunday ' s picnic and enjoyed the chance to unwind from the busy weekend. Yes, Mardi Gras ' 84 was a proving ground, and it proved that partying is not necessarily getting drunk and rowdy. Partying is being with friends, enjoying good times, and making memories. 148 Spring Weekend Spring Weekend 149 150 Spring Weekend Beautiful weather and a large turn- out were two key factors in produc- ing the most successful homecoming weekend in years. For the first time, Family Day was incorporated into the homecoming festivities. Activity be- gan in the beginning of the week with the decoration of the Student Center pit, but the real action started on Thursday night with the Beru Revue concert in the Ballroom followed by all night movies. Meanwhile, in the Rathskellar, a larger-than-usual crowd attended the All American Bash . Fri- day ' s activity began with a Trivial Pur- suit competition held in the pit. Friday night, the practice football field be- came the center of attention as G.S.C. President Herman James rekindled an old tradition by lighting the bonfire and beginning the homecoming pep- rally. Saturday began with the home- coming parade of floats made by var- ious clubs, fraternities and sororities on campus. The parade wound its way through the streets of Glassboro and arrived back at the football stadi- um for the beginning of the football game against William Patterson Col- lege. The Profs treated the packed stadium to an exciting game, coming from behind to beat William Patter- son who was favored to win the game. The G.S.C. band performed during halftime and the winners of the float competition were an- nounced. The combined effort of Zeta Beta Tau fraternity and Delta Zeta sorority was rewarded with the first place trophy in the competition. About 100 students attended the Levi-501 Olympics held on Sunday. The games included an obstacle course, three legged race, relay race, and a tug-of-war. The event was sponsored by the PRaction club and the sophomore club. All-in-all, the event-filled weekend showed students, faculty and parents that the homecoming spirit lives on at G.S.C. 154 Homecoming Homecoming 157 Beru Revue 158 Beru Revue Michelle Margotta Benefit Excitement leaped from the stage at Wilson Concert Hall during Diane Hull Dance Company ' s upbeat per- formance of, Bits from Hits, on Sep- tember 21st and 22nd. However, the performance had an unusually deep meaning to the per- formers and the audience. It was giv- en in an effort to raise money for Mi- chelle Margotta, a former G.S.C. Communications graduate and a Hull Dance Company charter member. Margotta had been stricken with myelodysplastic syndrome, cancer of the bone marrow. The young, vibrant dancers poured it on in their stimulating on stage movements and exhilarating singing. 42nd Street, Chorus Line and Dancin were among the many mini-skits in their two-hour perfor- mance. As guest artist with Lionel Hampton and his orchestra, the Company has performed at Radio City Music Hall, the Presidential Victory Party and a series of engagements in the Catskills. The Company raised a total of $3,200 to assist Margotta in her up- coming bone marrow transplant surgery. Michelle Margotta Benefit 159 MS Marathon This year ' s MS Dance Marathon was labeled the biggest and the best. One hundred twenty-six students took part in the marathon held in the Student Center Ballroom in February. Their combined efforts raised over $4,000. The atmosphere in the ballroom was casual. The dancers wore sweat- pants and jeans. Some even wore shorts, and after five hours on their feet, most had taken off their shoes. By the 24th hour when the music had ended, 92 dancers were still go- ing strong. However, all are to be commended. Because of their sweat and strain for a good cause, the night was a big succes. One hundred dollars was awarded to the first place winners, Joyce Wermer and John Magill, for raising the most money, $329. Second place winners, Beverly McCullough and Blair Stewart, raised $318. A special award was given to Kenny Scales of DKE, for the Greek who raised the most money, $145. Also, two plaques were awarded to Kappa Lambda Psi, for the Greek organization which raised the most money. BOGO, the dancers and everyone who worked so hard to pull the mara- thon together should be proud. The money was used to fight MS. Not only did those who participated have a good time, they also had the gratifi- cation of knowing that their efforts went to help millions suffering from the disease. 160 MS Marathon Earth Day STOP Students for Social Responsibility (SSR), made their statement at Earth Day ' 84. SSR is anti-nuclear, anti-cor- porate, anti-military and pro-environ- ment, said member Kevin Madden. The day ' s events included live mu- sic, speakers and information booths.

There were three rounds in the competi- tion including a still pose, in which the contes- tants were analyzed on their proportions of muscular size in comparison to their height (symmetry); mandatory poses, comparing each contestant to the other in muscularity, definition and size; and individual poses, where contestants were judged on their pre- sentation, symmetry and muscularity in a rou- tine to a song of their choice. Trophies were awarded for first, second and third places in addition to the best poser and most muscular. A second place trophy along with the best poser trophy was awarded to Scott Ziegler Accepting the third place trophy was |ohn Huenke. |ohn Duffont not only took first place, but also presented such incredible physical attri- butes that he also was the recipient of the most muscular trophy In Lisa lohnson ' s individual pose, she per- formed to Foreigner ' s Woman in Black, which depicted her attire for the evening. Lisa ' s ability to display her physique was most impressive with her body movements co- ordinating with the song. She looked like what every female probably wishes they looked like in a little two-piece bathing suit. Even though the audience ' s attention was focused on the contestants, the judges served such a vital purpose to the evening ' s event that they should not be disregarded. The six judges were Dr. William Kushner, head of the Speech and Theatre Depart- ment; Bob Rickenback, All-American offen- sive guard at Penn State, player for the Cali- fornia Sun, the Philadelphia Bell and the Phila- delphia Eagles; Dan Rozmes, Birches Elementary School guidance counselor and CSC assistant football coach; Ted Kirshner, CSC head football coach; Pete Westhead, Mr 1980 CSC; and the reigning Mr. GSC, Rick Robinson. It seems that in any bodybuilding contest, there are always a few bodies that stand out in the competition, and Glassboro body- builders were no exception. Exquisitely formed bodies with rippling biceps, triceps and all of the other ceps, gave the audi- ence plenty of opportunities to show their enthusiasm and support for the contestants along with their high degree of satisfaction with the entire program. It was truly a night to remember. 162 Mr. Ms. G.S.C. Physique Contest Subliminal Seduction rr In April 1984, the Student Center Ballroom was filled with attentive ears. Lecturer and author, Wilson Bry- an Key, spoke about his pet subject: subliminal advertising. Dr. Key ' s presentation included a slide show, interesting personal per- spectives and conversation that last- ed well after the end of his talk. The title of the lecture was Sub- liminal Seduction. This is a term he used to describe the manipulation of our minds that most advertising con- tains. Using Dr. Key ' s statistics, at least 700 messages out of the 1000 we re- ceive daily contain these subliminal messages. These may be sexual sym- bols in a cologne ad, hidden death messages in a liquor ad or the most involved example of the Howard Johnson placemat, which was the in- spiration of one of Key ' s books, enti- tle Clam Plate Orgy. Key pointed out that the subcon- scious messages created in advertis- ing is not a recent relevation and not only restricted to advertising. He gave the example of a painting dated back to the 13th century and a rock album with demonic messages. Dr. Key gave no clear explanation for this phenomenon. We don ' t even know how these messages are affect- ing the mind. But Key thinks that if companies think it works, they ' re go- ing to use it. Key thinks that Subliminal Seduc- tion is even more prevelant than we think, and he doesn ' t see an immedi- ate end to it. Presently, there are no laws governing the problem, but judi- cial intervention should be in the pic- ture soon. Dr. Key was very interesting and gave the audience something to think about. You ' ll know the people that attended— they ' re the ones that are looking closer at the art work in ice cubes, the mouths of beer bottles and the garnishing on plates. After all, as Dr. Key said, Only in the art depart- ment can you get sex in your parsley. Subliminal Seduction 163 Special Olympics On May 5th, more than 100 GSC students arrived at the team house to receive instructions for the coming day ' s event. Glassboro State College was the host of the 14th annual N.J. Special Olympics Area 7 Track and Field Meet. The superstars marching band, con- sisting of Burlington County special ed. students, played the Olympic theme song while Enz Gauduiso, 18, proudly carried the torch signifying the opening of the day ' s events. Mentally retarded athletes from 30 schools in Gloucester, Salem, Cam- den, and Burlington counties partici- pated in events such as, the 50-meter dash, softball throw, standing long jump, 400 meter relay and special wheelchair events. There were more than 400 winners. Big Shot , the Philadelphia 76ers mascot, entertained students through the day. Rep. James Florio made his seventh Special Olympics appear- ance. Dino Hall of the Cleveland Browns, and a GSC alumnus, an- nounced the names of the winners. Dr. Mark Chamberlain also spoke em- phasizing the importance of Glass- boro ' s role in the program. The Reverend David Beebe of the GSC Newman Center gave the invo- cation at the opening ceremonies ex- pressing joy for all participating par- ents, teachers, students and athletes. Fifty years ago these kids would have been hidden away. Today, they are being shown off. It ' s a great ac- complishment, remarked Father Beebe. The athletes ' s feelings were summed up when Jack Boyle, Area Seven Coordinator of the Special Olympics led them in the Special Olympics oath, Let me win, but if I cannot win, let me be brave in the attempt. 164 Special Olympics Miss G.S.C A new queen was crowned at the 1984 Miss Glassboro State College Scholarship Pageant — Michelle Gal- zerano. The 21-year-old speech communi- cations major also won the talent and swimsuit competition against ten oth- er women. First runner-up was 21-year-old Donna Anne Purcell, while 19-year- old Karen Stone became the second runner-up. Kim Flaim and Kathleen Coghan were the third and fourth runners-up, respectively. Galzerano represented Glassboro State at the Miss New Jersey Pageant and was first runner-up to Miss New Jersey, Suzette Charles, when she was Miss Gloucester County in 1983. For her award-winning talent, Gal- zerano performed a medley of Watch What Happens and Let ' s Hear It For Me. Miss G.S.C. 165 The GSC football field was filled with the sights and sounds of nine high school bands from the South jer- sey area at the second annual March- ing Band Festival held in October. Hard work and long hours of prac- tice paid off as the bands performed for the audience and judges. Each band was evaluated in music, march- ing and overall effect. The festival is sponsored by the GSC Marching Band, and was started in 1983 by senior music major Bill McDevi tt. I hope it becomes some- thing which can be carried on, said McDevitt. The participating high school bands included West Deptford, Glassboro, Overbrook, Clayton, Gateway, Edgewood, Northern Burlington, Pit- man and Holy Cross. The College Marching Band also performed in ex- hibition. Marching Band Festival 166 Marching Band Festival Miss Black G.S.C Ik Jeanette Brown was crowned Miss Black Glassboro State College 1985 in Wilson Concert Hall on November 9, 1984. The Miss Black GSC contest offers black women on campus the oppor- tunity to speak out for what they be- lieve in. Miss Black GSC represents not only the black college population, but the entire campus as a leader. The pageant consists of the intro- duction during which the contestants present their philosophy on life, a ca- sual wear segment, tal ent competi- tion, and formal wear segment. Final- ly, the contestants are asked a sponta- neous question. Love, trust and honesty are the key ingredients in life, and if you keep these in mind, you can accomplish anything life has to offer, said third runner-up Joyce Adams of her philos- ophy on life. For Adams, the pageant was an excellent opportunity to speak in front of an audience. Cer- tainly, it was a good experience since the girls were under pressure and, naturally, nervous. The first runner-up was Denise Da- vis, second was Stephanie Wilkins, and fourth was Joana Allie. Miss Black G.S.C. 167 Psychedelic Furs In the Esby Gym at 8:45 on Sunday, November 18, a restless crowd await- ed the Psychedelic Furs as they be- gan their second to last date on their world tour. Band members, Richard Butler — vocals, Jim Butler on bass, )ohn Ashton on lead guitar, with sup- porting musicians on guitar, saxo- phone, keyboard and drums, opened their fifteen song set with Love My Way. The performance was intensified by the special effects created by myr- iad lights, extensive use of fog, and mirrored balls. Some outstanding songs were Alice ' s House due to its intense sound, while Sleep Comes Down visually displayed a thunder- ing crescendo of light and sound. The Furs closed their two hour show with an uplift version of For- ever Now. They returned to the stage as the crowd cheered for more, and encored with two fast-paced dance songs, Into You Like A Train, and India. The concert proved to be a tremendous success due to the selection of songs and creative use of special effects. 168 Psychedelic Furs Spy Guy Dressed in a blue suit and black tur- tleneck, with black hair and black mustache, something about Peter N. James suggested mystery. And why not? He ' s the ' Spy Guy ' , and he dropped into Mimosa Lounge in December to talk to students about his life . . . the life of a spy. James is an author, a physicist, an adventurer and a world traveler. His career as a spy began after he attended the International Space Conference in Athens, Greece as an aerospace engineer with the Pratt- Whitney Aircraft Florida Research and Development Center, a division of the United Technologies Corporation. It is here that James began to come in contact with the Russians. The CIA said to me, ' You have a degree in physics, you have gained knowledge in Pratt-Whitney, and most importantly have rubbed el- bows with Russians in Greece. ' The (CIA) wanted me to use international conferences as excuses to meet Rus- sians and find out what they were up to, explained James. I had a great ' cover ' too. I was playing myself ... a Pratt-Whitney air- craft engineer. Since that time, the ' Spy Guy ' has travelled to such places as Spain, Italy, France and Belgium. Spy Guy 169 Communications Day Six communications organizations brought the Communications Day Conference to the Student Center last April. The day featured eleven professionals covering many different topics in the communications field. The attending audience of these lec- tures received a headful of vital infor- mation and many helpful hints. The organizations which brought this day together were: PRSSA, The Advertising Club, Radio TV Associ- ation, WGLS, The Whit and Women in Communications. Bernie Dillion, the new marketing director for Harrah ' s Trumph Plaza in Atl antic City, discussed different vari- ations of marketing and the steps he took to coordinate the July 4th Beach Boys concert on the beach in Atlantic City. Ron Patel, a managing editor of the Philadelphia Inquirer, addressed a group of would-be journalists stress- ing the sacrifices that had to be made in order to become a successful jour- nalist. Michael Sokolove, from the Phila- delphia Daily News, spoke on foreign correspondence and news blackouts. Alan Halpern, of the Atlantic City Magazine, presented a workshop fo- cusing on breaking into the magazine business. Myra Chanin, author and media personality, explained to the audience how she deals with book publishers. Carolyn Tyson, associate producer of City Lights , a half-hour weekly entertainment program geared to- ward the black community on KYW- TV, discussed finding a job in televi- sion production. Other speakers included Dale Tay- lor from D.T Associated; Elaine Ko- bernick, of Northeastern Hospital; Bob Shroyock, from Storer Commu- nications of Gloucester County; Edith Schwager, a freelance medical editor and Karen Siefring-Messer, from the Center for Counseling and Career Development at Glassboro State Col- lege. 170 Communications Day The First Opera Scholarship Benefit Concert, sponsored by the GSC Op- era Workshop, was held in Wilson Recital Hall in mid-November. Soprano Sandra Ruggles performed magnificently for the eager audience. She sang Rossini ' s Cat Duet and se- lections from Marriage of Figaro , Old Maid and the Thief and Ma- dame Butterfly . Ruggles has performed with the National Touring Company, The New Jersey Symphony, Pennsylvania Op- eras Festival, and the Children ' s Free Opera. Opera Scholarship 171 Shannon Their appearance may seem strange to some, but not to the small audience that was gathered in the ballroom in November. Pretty Poison, the warm-up band for Shannon, delighted both the ears and eyes of the energetic crowd with their punk rock songs and dazzling light show. The audience exploded to their hit song performance of Night Time. . . . and the main attraction, Shan- non. The moment she stepped on to the stage, the audience was filled with excitement. What a show! The audi- ence danced and sang along with this enthusiastic performer as she over- filled every expectation of the audi- ence with such hit songs as, Give me tonight, and Let the music play. Although this performance was far from a sell out, both the performers and audience had a lot of fun. 172 Shannon Pretty Poison 44 The Dining Room rr In November, the department of speech theatre dance and Campus Players opened their production of A.R. Gurney, Jr ' s, The Dining Room to a full and receptive Studio Theatre audience. Under the direction of Dr. Joseph Robinette, 10 GSC students performed 53 roles in a series of skits in a dining room setting. The 90-minute play of fascinating characters, unbrittled emotions and unspoken words unvailed to each of the audience how other people live their lives. The play also demonstrated that people with class and cash also have emotions, complete with all the prob- lems that are inherent in relationships in any social class. The casts flawless performance took the audience through the im- mense disappointments and sense of betrayal young Michael (Robert Wolfe) felt when his family ' s servant (Valerie Pettineo) decided to retire. We also saw a riotously funny birth- day party at Winkie ' s (Anita Gae Levy) along with an unconsummated affair. Bravo! 174 The Dining Room Tim Kides is more than just an aver- age GSC physical Education major He made his mark by raising over $500 for the Glassboro Cancer Fund for Kids during Project Santa 1984. How does one man raise all that money? By doing sit-ups of course . . . 30,001 to be exact. Kides ' feat began at 5 p.m. on No- vember 28, 1984 and ended over 22 hours later. Along with raising money for charity, Kides broke the current world record for sit-ups which, ac- cording the The Cuiness Book of World Records is 29,051. Kides is obviously in excellent phys- ical condition. To prepare himself for his record-breaking stunt, he did 1,000 sit-ups a day with a two and a half pound weight on his head every day for a month. That ' s a lot of sit-ups, a lot of time, a lot of dedication, and a lot of self-discipline. Congratulations are in order for Tim Kides. He succeeded in not only breaking a world record, but also in helping Project Santa help children. Tim Kides 175 Project Santa For eighteen years, Project Santa has been raising money for charities; this year, all proceeds were donated to the Glassboro Cancer Fund for Kids. There is no greater cause than can- cer, President Herman James said of Project Santa ' s cause, this is especially true when it involves children ... The annual Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony began this year ' s events on December 3. It was followed by the Kickoff Dinner in the Owl ' s Nest. State Senator Dan Dalton (D-Camden) at- tended the dinner. Any area can be a borough, he said, but a community means people reach- ing out to help each other . . . Glassboro is every person ' s town. Highlights of the week ' s events in- cluded a giant flea market on Tuesday and Wednesday. For those who enjoy a good show, Tuesday night ' s Drag Beauty Contest and Male Physique Contest were where the entertainment was. On Wednesday, the Celebrity Auc- tion stole the show. The Budman and the Eagles ' Cheerleaders were on hand to help Project Santa raise over $1,900. Thursday came in with a kiss and went out with a bang! The Kiss Off Con- test started it all off, and, after a Lip Sink Contest and the TKE Slave Auction (these guys raised over $400!), the 1985 New Years Eve Party brought this year ' s Project Santa to an official and successful close. It really is better to give than to receive ... the folks who participated in and planned Project Santa can tell you that. And in return, they received the knowl- edge that they helped in man ' s greatest battle ... the battle against cancer. 178 Project Santa Project Santa 179 Winter Dance Concert In early December, the stage in To- hill Auditorium came alive with the Dance Ensemble ' s Winter Dance Concert. Glassboro students performed with style and presence such pieces as A Drop in the Bucket , a modern dance that brought clothes on a line to life; Albinoni Variations , a ballet piece in which seven dancers performed graceful variations to Thomaso Albin- oni ' s Concerto A Cinque in C Ma- jor ; and The Lady in Red , a sexy, sultry jazz piece. The dancers were choreographed by members of the Dance Faculty in- cluding Gwendolyn Bye, A Drop in the Bucket ; Alexei Yudenich, Two Last Songs ; Melanie Stewart, Roses are Red, Violence is Blue, Pistols are Happy, Machine Guns Go Boo Hoo ; Victor Moreno, Albinoni Variations; A. Tage Wood, Marias ; and H. Edw. Roy, The Lady in Red . 180 Winter Dance Concert The Would-be Gentleman The Would-be Gentleman 183 The Hooters and Paleface Sunday, February 3rd was far from an ordinary quiet Sunday night. Pale- face and the Hooters came to Glass- boro and gave an outstanding perfor- mance in the Esby gym. Paleface, the warm-up band, wind- ed down and the anxious audience awaited the Hooters. An electrifying sound filled the gym as they began their set with songs such as All You Zombies, Hanging On A Heart- beat, Fighting On the Same Side, Amore, Blood From a Stone, Don ' t Wanna Fight, Concubine, and Birdman. Performing members in the Hoot- ers include: Eric Brazlian — vocals, gui- tar, and saxophone; John Lilley — gui- tar; Bob Hyman — vocals and key- board; Rob Miller — bass and vocals; and David Vosillinen on drums. The audience couldn ' t get enough of the Hooters. They cheered them on for not one, not two, but three encores. Wrapping-up the show they performed Time After Time and Man in the Street, the latter being the first song that the group ever per- formed together. 184 The Hooters The Hooters 185 A ctivities Day To benefit the 600 new transfer and Freshman students at Glassboro, February 6th was declared Activities Day. From 10 a.m. until 4 p.m., some of Glassboro ' s organizations showed interested students what they ' re all about. Each organization had the op- portunity to show-off in the Stu- dent Center pit. Many of G.S.C. ' s organizations had representatives available to explain activities, give performances, distrib- ute literature, and show displays. Activities Day was an invitation to all interested students to discover what Glassboro ' s organizations have to offer. 186 Activities Day K-2 The story of survival, K-2, was pre- sented by the Lab Theatre in early February on the Wilson Recital Hall stage. This heart-warming dramatization took place on an icy ledge, 27,000 feet up on the side of K-2, the second highest mountain in the world. The cast c onsisted of only two characters, Taylor (Wayne Langsdorf) and Harold (Dave Mermelstein). As the story unfolded, the audi- ence saw these two friends struggle to survive after a climbing accident which left them stranded on an icy ledge. It told of their fight against the odds and elements of nature and re- vealed the strong bond of love which held them together. Under the direction of George H. Brown, these two actors won the hearts of their audience with their re- alistic performances. K-2 187 Artist ' s Reception Glassboro State ' s artists displayed their works at the Artist ' s reception held on April 4th. The Wesby Art Gallery was filled with exquisite drawings, paintings, and ceramics, ranging from the unique to the traditional. Each piece reflected the amazing talents of each creator. You could feel the surge of creativity light up the room as you entered. Senior, Sherri Kappes, assisted the coordination of this event under the supervision of Herb Appleson and Jo- seph Tishler. 188 Artist ' s Reception Terrorism Lecture (Editor ' s note: A World Educational Council spokesperson attempted to impose a limited embargo on information provided by a State Department official in a speech open to the college community in the Wilson Recital Hall Despite the fact that the speaker, Isabel lohnstone, had been identified in a press release issued by the World Educational Council a week prior to the event, the spokesperson said that Ms, lohnstone should not be identified by name or photography, or quoted directly in any account. Because the speaker was identified prior to the session, and because the event was open to the public, the Image has decided to disregard the embargo ) The startling account of 500 terrorism incidents reported for 1983 has already been topped for 1984 and these occurances are expected to rise in 1985, according to State Department estimates. In early December, the World Educational Council presented Isabel Johnstone on the topic of International Terrorism: At Home and Abroad, at the Wilson Recital Hall. Johnstone, an intelligence officer of the U.S. State Department, has the duty of analyzing terrorist groups and their threats and predicting problem areas. Although no sensitive or classified State Department information was revealed, tape recorders, cameras, and video equipment were barred. Johnstone described her office as having the duty of identifying terrorist groups by looking at their goals. Four major, non-exclusive categories of terrorist groups were described: Nationalists have a grievance against a specific country; rightists aim to destroy certain enemies; leftists carry a Marxist Leninist idealogy, and other terrorist groups are controlled by the state, according to Johnstone. Johnstone outlined recent trends in terrorism as skyjacking in the late 1960 ' s and early 1970 ' s and seizures of diplomatic missions in the late 1970 ' s to early 1980 ' s. The latest trend, said Johnstone, is to kill indescriminately large groups of people, as in a suicide mission car bombing, whereas large numbers of innocent bystanders are victims. International efforts to halt terrorism may never be a reality since what is a terrorist group to one country may be a freedom fighter to another, according to Johnstone. The most effective way to prevent terrorist acts is to make it clear that America will retaliate with force, said Johnstone. Terrorism Lecture 189 Dan Wagoner In early February, Wilson Stage ex- ploded with the fast moving and var- ied movements of Dan Wagoner and Dancers. The company, which has been to- gether since 1969, has toured throughout North America, South America, Europe, and Asia. It is one of the nine recipients of the 1984 Na- tional Endowment for the Arts Ad- vancement Grants and has been se- lected by the South Carolina Arts Commission to establish a second home in that state. The seven-mem- ber company is known for its techni- cal virtuosity and performance magic. Included in the company ' s out- standing performance was a retro- spective consisting of segments of dances from the past fifteen years. 190 Dan Wagoner Suzuki Violin Method The word Suzuki brought new meaning to a young group of children that are part of The Community Fine and Performing Arts Program on cam- pus. Suzuki is a method of teaching young children to play the violin that emphasizes a rote method which in- cludes playing games along with en- couraging the enjoyment of music. These violinists performed a dem- onstration concert to show off the skills that they learned in class with their instructor, Deborah Heid. Since they are taught to play the violin by imitating Heid, the children do not use music to read from in their performances. It was difficult to be- lieve that these children could strum out so many songs without the aid of reading music. It was some- thing that had to be seen . . . and heard. Attending a concert starring these delightful pint-sized violinists turned out to be the ultimate way of sharing such a fascinating event. Suzuki Violin Method 191 A campus is more than just the buildings. It is the people that brought life to the buildings by teaching, learn- ing, and sharing. Ours is a campus that seemed to spring up out of nowhere this year.lt was reorganized, renovated, and re- juvenated. New signs, new buildings, and new inhabitants all gave our cam- pus a new look. For those of us who are leaving Classboro, the campus will always re- main, in our minds, as it is now. To each of us, the image will be different. It depends on where and how we spent our time. Some of us won ' t re- member the new dorms, some of us may never have stepped foot in Wil- son or Memorial. The buildings are just that . . . build- ings, but they symbolize a broad spectrum of emotions and ideas and changes. They symbolize the lives we lead and the roles we played in them. This is the campus that we built . . . This is the campus that we will always remember. 192 Campus Scene Campus Scene Campus Scene 193 Of all the changes we ' ve seen at Glassboro State, probably the great- est are the changes that each and ev- ery one of us have experienced dur- ing our years here. We ' ve gone from being freshmen to seniors in what seems like over night, and it has been no easy up hill climb. We have all challenged our- selves academically, socially and per- sonally. We have all had our times of failing and our times of triumph. What we leave behind is a little bit of ourselves in the lives of the people we ' ve touched along the way. What we take with us are countless memo- ries, invaluable knowledge, and a sense of pride that comes from knowing that through all of the hard times, the times of doubt, anger, and frustration, we made it, and we ' ll keep on making it. Over the past four years, we have found within ourselves the power and the need to reach out. We ' ve opened our minds and our hearts. We have grown within ourselves and we have grown together — and yes, this is the greatest change of all. 204 Seniors SENIORS Seniors 205 Roberto Aguilar Political Science Marianne Aiello Law Justice Carol Albert Home Economics Kathryn Albert Art Dorothea Alberta Business Adm.

The material expressed in this book does not necessarily represent the views of Glassboro State College, its administrators, faculty, or students. Rather it represents the opinions of the editor and her staff. The Image apologizes to those people, clubs and organizations whose activities were not in- cluded in the 1985 yearbook. Due to a time factor in publishing and a limited number of photogra- phers and copywriters, we were unable to cover some events. SPECIAL THANKS TO . . . Tina and Sally for all their help and support. D.S. Robin for all her time and patience. D.S. Chris Dickerman and Peggy Veacock for their help and patience. S.D. Ben Resnik, jack Gillespie, and Don Stoll for being so understanding and always being there when needed. D.R. Julie for walking beside me and being my friend. L.C. Robin, for everything! BBBWW We had hoped to express the changes that took place on campus over the past years in this book. In some cases, those changes are evident. We saw physical changes within the buildings and on the grounds, and we saw structural changes that saw fraternities and sororities move on campus and the Rat close its doors to week- end partiers. We even saw new buildings com- pleted and filled with dorm-dwellers. These changes are obvious, yes. But they are not the most intriguing, nor are they the most memorable. Those of us who grew together over the past four years, who shared, and laughed, and worked, and played together . . . those of us who participated in the experience of college living will see the most memorable, the most intriguing changes in these pages. They are the changes that are hidden behind the stillness of the pictures and words. They are the changes that took place within us all, and to each one of us, they are different. 270 Closing I could tell you my adventures - Beginning from this morning — At least I knew who I was when I got up this morning, but I think I must have changed several times since then. — Lewis Carroll COLOPHON Volume XIV of the Glassboro State College Im- age was printed by the Delmar Company, Char- lotte, North Carolina.
