Sandy, besides working on a double major of Secondary Education in English and History, belongs to Theta Kappa Chi, Young Democrats, Cheshyre Cheese, and Phi Theta Kappa, and was on the Dean ' s Honor List. Choosing her majors because of her love for history, politics and literature, as well as a longing to help people by passing on knowledge, this University of Texas hopeful and Thomas Jefferson High School graduate has received a $100 per semester Pryor scholarship since her ar- rival at SAC. While praising the deep educational insight gleaned from her instructors, Sandy explained, The personal relation- ships I feel with my teachers have instilled in me the desire for knowledge and learn- ing. She also fills non-school hours by working part time as a salesgirl and by playing tennis, swimming, and skindiving. 104

David Karney David Karney got plenty of walking exercise as he trotted across the McAl- lister Auditorium stage four times at the Awards Assembly, May 7. He received his second Top Ten certificate, the Hallmark Trophy as the most outstanding Ranger athlete, a track letter, and an all A award in German. As president of the Beta Nu chapter, David was one of 500 students at the national meeting of Phi Theta Kappa in Aberdeen, Washington. He also co-cap- tained the San Antonio College track team the past year. Running the hurdles, he won three seconds and a third place in compe- tition at the state and conference meets. David describes mathematics, his ma- jor, as having a certain beauty that re- wards diligent study. In the spring of 1963, he won the Mathematics Award as the top student in that subject. David has been on the Dean ' s List since coming here. Among the professions that he is con- sidering are math, teaching, and nuclear physics. 105
