PROLOGUE I wos originally hired os a photographer for the Saxigcna in November 1979. At thot time, I learned that the majority of the existing staff was to be either graduating in December, or doing their internships this spring semester. Becky Cohen, the previous Saxigcna editor, was one of those doing on internship — in Philadelphia. After considerable self-interrogation, I applied for the editor's position. Becky and I seemed to have on instant rapport, and when the night for interviewing came up, being the sole applicant for the position, I was hired. Except for a couple of people, the Saxigena has on entirely new staff. Entering this first year of o new decade, we decided to give you, the students of Slippery Rock State College, a new yearbook. New in format, new in size, and new in perspective. Hopefully, this will also be the beginning of a new wave of creativity and the end of the scrapbook-yearbook . What I have given you is a two part book. Port one being a portfolio of the school year in photographs and part two, accomplishments and organizations of the school. I hope your reactions are pleasant. Jonet Gill Shilling Editor-in-Chief

 HoObltdtfiOy Dougherty I've been hongin' around for, oh, a little more than a year now. I'd hove to say it's been a pretty exciting year at that. I guess I should introduce myself, huh? Well, you see, that's kinda' hord considering I don't have a name. I just am, I exist, that's all. I was made in o factory, just a piece of rock glued on a choin — junk. My life really began when Jenny put me around her neck. I've been there ever since. I was a present to Jenny from her parents the day she left for college. Real sentimental I know, but it was the turning point of my life and hers too. U
