THE 19 Keeping in Mind the Past . . . Expanding into the Future . . . 37 SOU ' WESTER I v Opening 1 Traditions can be important, planned events such as Commencement oi Homecoming. However, traditions don ' I have to necessarily be institutionalizeJj events. Some traditions last simply bei cause they are an integral part of collegg life. Often these types hold the fondesl memories. : ' 1 • . - ««f. Administration Students The Administration and Staff of Veteran seniors mix with the juniors,. Southwestern plan, and predict the fu- sophomores, and the newly initiated ture to keep the ball rolling through- collegiates,-the freshman, out the years. 54 ■slillpv- ■-■ ;;;; . 64 i Campus The campus at S.U. is not }ust an anal- ogous group of edifices. These buildings I have character. The oldest, such as the Cullen building, gives one a sense of rooted establishment and sentimental- ity. The newest additions, Mabee Hall I and Ihe new addition to the library sym- bolize the futuristic aspirations of our comrhunity. Faculty The faculty members participate in college life as much as the students. The faculty student ratio has always been good at S.U. so that faculty members never have to spread themselves too thin. From this, healthy relationships be- tween students and faculty members evolve. Events Whether it was the historical home- coming or the first annual Christmas Ball, both types of events filled the 1987 calendar. 40 Sports No, S.U. does not have football. It nev- er has and it probably never will. But it does have some devoted athletes play- ing volleybafl, basketball, baseball, ten- nis, golf, and lacrosse. Organizations One of the oldest clubs at S.U. is the Mask and Wig Players. Since the school ' s establishment, many other or- ganizations have survived throughout the years. Also, many new clubs have evolved in order to meet the needs of the students and keep up with the times. Student Life Candid photos portray college life at its best. Friends - old and new- laugh, cry, and live together. 94 108 154 . :, ■ ' ■ : ' Good Health - Good Studying (Five medically) sound health study tips as revealed to two conscientious stu- dents playing shuffleboard in a local laun- dromat, when, in a poof of cigarette smoke and a blinding flash of light, a wiser old sage with a downy soft beard and a lisp suddenly appeared and said I ' m a doctor, and I know what I ' m talking about, OK?! 1. Never study with music or TV. Radi- ation emitted from TV screens and stereo speakers causes severe swelling and irri- tation of the eyelids. 2. Don ' t study in bed. Dangerously high sheet to book ratios have been known to cause Rocky Mountain spotted fever in laboratory rats. 4 Opening 3. Don ' t cram for tests-read assigned work when it ' s assigned. Cramming for tests only leads to painfully knitted brows and lockjaw! 4. Don ' t eat while you study. Research has shown that simultaneous operation of the digestive system and the intellect may lead to painful cuts and abrasions on the palms of your hands and soles of your feet. 5. Assemble a study group of your classmates. Studying in large numbers significantly reduces risk of stretch marks and age spots in the facial region. Keep studying- and keep fit! by Syd Gary and Beth Chapoton Opening 5 Parties S.U. Style Southwest? Isn ' t that a party school? No, sir. You ' re thinking about Southwest Texas in San Marcos. This is Southwestern, in Georgetown. But we do have parties. Whether school, independent, or Greek sponsored, the calendar is filled with them. Clever themes add life to these festive affairs making get - to - gethers turn into extravaganzas. 6 Opening ; SL 1 IIP m mm p M 1 ■ E a ' 1 1 i Wl tt F | N 1 1 I -— 1 ■Bk. MMESWr M J 1 ■ . ' . ' 1 ' - ' ■ - SI 7 P i f jt I r ■ % P Breaking Away Although classes aren ' t out until five, students begin packing their bags and loading their cars for Spring Break around noon. This break has the potential to be the wildest, most thrilling vacation time for students. All of the elements are there: fun, sun, the hint of summer, and freedom from school for a whole week. Someone once told me, Spring Break is great. There are no pressures to be with family or to do anything hokey except maybe to get a job. Many students do head home for these leisure days and promise mom they ' ll be employed this summer. Others save spare change, and with some ingenuity, have the time of their lives at a hot vacation spot. Spring Break transforms pale, bookworm, body-concious students into bronze beauties, well fed and rested Momma ' s darlings, brave campers, or even easyriders. Rolling Right Along . V Students at Southwestern have always enjoyed the countryside surrounding the University that begins at the rock and extends to . . . well, wherever . Rolling is the concept of enriching the students ' lives through closer glimpses of this milieu. These glimpses are effectively captured through the rolling process which involves a car, more than one occupant, and a beverage of any kind. Through years of experienced rolling, students have acquired favored spots that are a must for breaking in new rollers. These hot spots include The Walburg Angel, Bitch Bridge, the Cotton Gin, Heaven and Hell, Pecan Grove, Snuffy ' s, Possums, and assorted drinking holes. The l-House was fast developing into a hot spot until its destruction on February 19; however, its memory will live on in imfamy. These exclusive sights generally have their own legends incorporated in their fame. These legends are told during late-night rolls and effectively inspire fear and awe, two elements that always add excitement to rolling, by Katie Parvin 8 Opening Opening 9 tJm %l mm ' E mr 1 y |, 9 1 10 Opening 12 Campus Southwestern University ' s campus has been called one of Texas ' most beautiful and best planned college facilities.

Faculty 39 40 Events ' Ml Events 41 HOMECOMING A Traditional Weekend The first Homecoming festivities at Southwestern were held April 21, 1909. A contemporary historian described the oc- casion as the biggest event in Southwes- tern ' s history. The town closed its business doors, decked itself in black and gold, and wel- comed 1,500 ex-students, some of whom had not been on campus for over a quar- ter of a century ... At noon a barbecue dinner was held on the campus - it was nearly rained out - and the tables were filled three times. Although Homecoming at S.U. hasn ' t always meant barbecue for 1,500, tradi- tionally, it has been a time of celebration and a chance for collegiates to interact with alumni. With no football game to pro- vide the central focus, S.U. has, over the years, come up with its own itinerary of Homecoming traditions. Most of these have been designed with students in mind. University Sing was Friday. There were nine official entries and six filler acts this year. Saturday ' s activities kept everyone happily entertained with a parade around the campus circular drive, a barbecue lunch on the lawn between the SUB and Chapel, and a performance of the top singing winners of Sing for the Alumni As- sociation ' s Award Ceremony. Old-tim- ers baseball and basketball games fol- lowed this. The event for Saturday night was the Homecoming Dance, and the place was the Country Palace in Round Rock. The weekend ended on Sunday with the tradi- tional worship service, which held special significance for all involved in the South- western community, by Teresa Deal. 42 Events k Events 43 SING A HOMECOMING TRADITION Sing has remained a Southwestern Uni- versity tradition which everyone looks forward to. This year ' s show was a great success. All four sororities and fraterni- ties entered the competition along with numerous individual acts. There were some inspiring skits which resembled Broadway productions. The Zetas grabbed everyone ' s attention with their elaborate version of Cats. Everyone took a trip back to the big band era with the Delta Zeta ' s all out presentation of songs such as Rum and Coca Cola and Apple Blossum Time. The Pikes kept up a tradition of their own by winning first place yet another year with their produc- tion of songs of the old south. A few entries reflected on campus life. First, the Campus Life Staff shared a be- hind the scenes look at the Maintenence Crew. Their humorous versions of the words to the songs from The Sound of Music won third place. The Tri Delts ' DDD T.V. opened Sing with an overview of Southwestern life by rewriting words to sitcom themes. In the end they left the audience with Such a Good Feeling in the true Mr. Roger ' s spirit. The Best Lit- tle Frat House in Texas presented by the Kappa Alphas exposed all, even though they did contend that There ain ' t Nothin ' Dirty Goin ' On. The final glimpse of campus life came when the Alpha Delta Pi ' s split up into the roles of boys and girls to portray the complexity of Southwes- tern ' s Dating Game. Everyone enjoyed their clever insight. In celebration of their centennial, the Sigs kept to their own tradition of singing songs around a campfire (actually a can- dle). No need to worry, a fire extinguisher was close at hand. Finally the Phi Delts were out to enter- tain with classic party songs such as Twist -n- Shout and Louie, Louie To the audience ' s amusement they were dressed appropriately in their togas and boxer shorts. Sing was a hit. The alumni and students really got into the spirit of fun thanks to the sororities and fraternities, great indi- vidual acts, and witty M.C.

IVI .(.iMIVIOUIV  ART I Campoigning For The Ticker Campaigning for the Republican party ticket, United States Senator Phil Gramm made a campaign whistlestop at Southwestern University on October 27th. The impetus for the visit by Gramm, which was sponsored by the University Republicans and the South- western Committee to elect Bill Cle- ments, was a very successful voter reg- istration drive netting over 250 new reg- istrations on campus. The well-known Junior Senator spoke to more than 125 students, faculty, and Georgetownites. by Steve Katsurinis 46 ST. EDWARD ' S MIXER M. W : : M Boxer Jam The St. Edwards mixer proved to be a great social merger for many students. SU ' s Union Program Council negotiated with the Student Activities Council at St. Edwards University. Austin and brought the two schools together Ben Sherman was behind the SU scene of the Boxer Jam. The Jam took place at St. Ed ' s in hon- or of their newly renovated gym. Every- one danced the night away, the dance featured the newly up and coming band Caruso. Amidst all the singing and danc- ing, students from both schools got a chance to mix. For those who had more than meeting on their mind the planners arranged a computer scamming game. Couples were matched by the computer according to their expressed interest in the one another. Even those not partici- pating in the game had fun watching the results and meeting new people. op: Steve Rucinski and Jennifer Flex flash a winning nile for the camera at the Boxer Jam. eft: St. Edward ' s students look for their perfect .U. match at the Boxer Jam with Southwestern. Events 47 THE CHRISTMAS BALL A Nighr ro Remember Saturday, December 6, 1986 set a new tradition for Southwestern Universi- ty with the Christmas Ball. This event was unique because it did not only cater to the students, it included the entire university community of staff, faculty, administration and students. The Union Program Council ' s Recreational Com- mittee planned this extravaganza. Mem- bers of the committee included: Tracy Harting, Trisha Rickey, Jill Brown, Patty McClure, Bridget Collins, Laura Kimball, Rebecca Lincoln, Laurel Hoel, Debbie Volker, Laura Byrd, Sharon Graham, and Kristy Sorenson. Tracy Harting, the committee chairperson exclaimed, I think it ' s great to invite everyone, it ' s the first time that the entire school com- munity has been invited to such a party. It will be good to see all of the groups 48 Events mingling and having fun. Besides mixing and mingling, the guests were able to dine and dance the night away. Bob Stage and staff pre- pared succulent delights. The menu of- fered the guests their choices of turkey breast, baked ham, minature eggrolls with the appropri ate sauces, home made rolls, chicken drummettes, and cheeseballs covered with almonds. For dessert, Christmas cookies dipped in chocolate were served. Punches were submitted by the sororities and the best punch received a prize. The Zetas won. Guests had the opportunity to work off the calories on the dance floor by swing- ing to the rhythms of Clifford Zirkel ' s big band sound. Dance lessons were given by Dr. Kain to show people how to real- ly dance. For some additional fun, three Georgetown police officers were deckec out in Santa Claus outfits. A huge Christ mas tree and white lights sparkled over head to add to the festive atmosphere Door prizes heightened the giving spiri of the season. Besides 4 $50 gift certifi cates from Heritage Men ' s Shop and La keaire cleaners, a calculator, free VCF and movie rental, and gift certificate? from various restaurants and retailer; were given away. Trisha Rickey conclud ed, I think it will give everyone the op portunity to celebrate Christmas witr the people who they see, live, and woH with every day. Perhaps this gala even will set a new tradition at S.U. A- BROWN SYMPOSIUM fhe Age of Computers Southwestern University ' s Interna- tional Brown Symposium on computers, was held March 25-27, to demonstrate how dramatically computers have changed our everyday thinking in a short amount of time. Dr. Naomi Baron coordinated the symposium. Because computers are common- place, we are no longer wondering whether to use a computer but which one to use, she explained. In many cir- cumstances we have little choice but to use a computer; in fact, because of the general, rapid growth of technology, computers and computing impinge on our lives in ways that we don ' t even think about anymore, she said. The symposium was entitled Pando- ra ' s Box. Computers in Everyday Life. According to Baron, computers offer a Pandora ' s Box of possibilities: Though many people are apprehensive of them, computers have the potential to affect each of our lives profoundly. Baron recruited a host of internation- ally-known computer experts to speak at the symposium, including Alan Kay, who has been called the father of the personal computer ; Joseph Deken, au- thor of the best-selling book The Elec- tronic Cottage; sound Synthesis expert John Chowning of Stanford University; science fiction author Issac Asimov; and other experts in areas such as robotics, Fractals, expert systems and biome- chanics. Many states have passed computer literacy requirements, some for stu- dents, others for schoolteachers. Many of the landmarks in the computer indus- try have been established only recently- the first Apple computer was introduced in 1979, the first IBM Personal Comput- er in 1981, the first Apple Macintosh in 1984- and the world of computing has changed dramatically since then, said Baron. The Brown Symposium demonstrat- ed how much change has come into our everyday thinking in a short amount of times because of computers, states Naomi Baron. CASINO NIGHT A Gambling Extravaganza The grand-finale of Southwestern ' s Al- cohol Awareness Week happened Satur- day night from 8:00 PM to midnight in the Union under the auspices of Casino Night. According to Don Heins, the program ' s director, Casino Night was designed as a demonstration of fun without drinking. The events planned proved to make a gala affair with representatives from all sectors of the campus community on the invitation list. Along with blackjack tables and faculty card tricksters, participants found a wide range of vice producing games. Such games ranged from three crap tables and two roulette wheels all equipped with professional dealers, six- teen blackjack tables and a Wheel of for- tune. Everything was set up to look like and convey the ambiance of a real gambling hall including bank windows where folks cashed in many chips for cash vouchers made, some say, on Kirk Treible ' s home- made press. Upon arrival each student received $10,000 worth of chips and was let loose. With their winnings at the end of the night they could bid for fantastic prizes during the auction, by Kenny Simon 50 Events Top: Robin Biley plays at high stakes.

Alma Marer One hundred and sixty seniors graduat- ed from Southwestern University in the month of May, 1987. The ceremony fo- cused on the importance of the human- ities. The program employed a A Defini- tion Of the Humanities by Ralph Perry to explain and define this concept. The pro- gram proceeded in the traditional way with the response from the candidates, the statement by the President, the con- ferring of degrees, the greeting from the Alumni Association, and the Alma Mater. Following this, was the benediction and the recessional song Gloria from Heilig- messe. Outstanding graduates were recog- nized from each department. The current cumulative grade point averages for hon- ors were established in 1983. The re- quirement for a cum laude honor was a GPA of 3.65; 3.80 for a magna cum laude honor; and at least a 3.95 for a summa cum laude honor. Cum laude graduates included: Jennie Jones, Jeffry Lace, and Mary Olivares. Magna cum laude gradu- ates included: Scott Carrell, Deborah Ste- fek, Georgia Beth Yandell, Brian Cress- man, Francoise Cressman, Katherine Dunn, John Janssen, and Jon Rice. Sum- ma cum laude graduates included: Doug- las Wells, Ruth Davis, Tiffany Hillin, Mi- chael Weir Jr., and Kristi Lynn Wright, by Stephanie Gimenez 52 Events «•£ II ' Events 53 I I 3 e 54 Administration Above: President Roy B. Shilling stands with his secretaries Norma Shaw and Francie Schroeder. Roy Shilling ' s Got What It Takes Roy B. Shilling, Jr., president of Southwestern University in Georgetown, is among the 100 most effective college and university leaders in the nation, ac- cording to a two-year study recently completed at Bowling Green State Uni- versity in Ohio. The study, entitled The Effective Col- lege President, examined the personal characteristics, professional back- ground and attitudinal differences that personify the men and women who have been identified by their peers as the na- tion ' s most effective college presidents. Questionnaires were sent in 1984 to 485 presidents, scholars and leaders of foundations and associations. The ques- tionnaire asked people to name the five most effective college presidents in the nation, and resulted in 412 names. The list was narrowed to 100 by selecting people who were nominated the most often, as well as through interviews with 18 higher education leaders across the country. Dr. Shilling has been president of Southwestern, a private university with 1,100 students, since 1981. During that time the endowment has grown from $26 million to more than $87 million, putting Southwestern among the top thirty in the nation in terms of endow- ment per student. Southwestern also has increased faculty salaries to among the highest in the nation for institutions of its kind, and has emphasized recruit- ing students who are highly talented academically. Dr. Shilling, who has been called on frequently as a national spokesman on higher education administration and val- ues-centered education in the liberal arts, is serving a four-year term as presi- dent of the University Senate of The United Methodist Church, the accredit- ing body for more than 120 United Methodist church related universities across the country. Southwestern has maintained strong ties with the United Methodist Church during its 146 year history. A courtesy of the Megaphone.

The 1986-87 team failed to advance past the St. Mary ' s Rattlers in the NAIA District IV championship, losing 47-53. This year ' s young team did without experienced point-guard Wally Myers, All-American Bobby Deaton, and the off- the-glass rebounder Troy Bijou. Instead, Coach Paul Peak casted a new starting line-up of young faces and old hands. Senior point-guard Greg Potter, five foot nine inches, gave up his hectic ten- dencies of the past to help the team with sound ball-handling, solid defense, and impressive offensive stats. Pete Fink guarded with Potter to provide an ex- tremely stable dribbling department of the Buc ' s game. Freshman Ray Baranco, and honor- able mention in the NAIA All-American poll and All District player, provided ex- plosively powerful offense from his small forward-big guard position through all 33 games, averaging 21.5 points per contest. Veteran senior forward Bruce Lewis remained a mainstay in the Pirate ' s de- fensive effort and often spurred and set the tone of offensive play. Senior rough-houser Jim Rathburn, Southwestern ' s center and captain posed a serious threat to the offensive drives of opposing teams and contribut- ed passing skills and clutch shooting to the offensive effort for the Bucs. Rath- burn averaged 10.3 rebounds per games which statistically made him the second best in District 4. Other players from the bench pro- vided Southwestern ' s team with sound depth and a promising future. Freshman small forward Tim Hickman and cente Gerald Embry increasingly helped th team throughout the year, adding con sistent and energized assistance ir many games. Motivational leader: Keane Fedosky and Jeff Knebel alsc filled in throughout the year, solidly de fining a complete team. Coach Peak ' : son, David, was sidelined for most of th season with knee problems. Peak set the national playoffs in Kan sas City as the Team ' s goal for next sea son. Fink, Baranco, and Peak are ex pected to play guard positions. Injure big - man Steve Henderson should re turn to add some offensive muscle t the Bucs game, helping Tim Hickman ii the forward positions.

Ranked in the NAIA Top 10 until their final week of play, the Bucs had their season of Buc-Ball cut short by the St. Mary ' s Rattlers in the District Four Fin- als . Some outstanding offensive players for the Bucs in 1987 were designated hitter Danny Cohen, who hit .444 with 20 homeruns and 91 RBI ' s; outfielder Don Shelton, who batted .398 with 92 hits and 35 stolen bases; and a outfield- er Derek Kempf, a .372 swatter with 12 HR ' s and 67 RBI ' s. The defensively strong rocket arm of catcher Lauren Hudson helped the Bucs quiet opposing players on the basepaths while he hit .329. Two outstanding freshman pitch- ers, Ben Austin (6-1) and Don Childs (6- 2), helped the seasoned veteran Mike Timlin (7-6) off the hill. Mike Timlin was drafted in the third round by the Toronto Blue Jays as a 3.28 ERA turned the heads of Pro- scouts. Danny Cohen was looked at by the Cincinatti Reds and Atlanta Braves. Seniors Tommy Collins, Lauren Hudson, and Jeff Allen have also left the team but Coach Mallon predicted another suc- cessful season in 1988. Rounding out the season at the othe positions were Jeff Giusti at first, Ja LaGrone at second, Pat Myers at shor stop, and Tom Collins at third base Todd Fagg and Mike Patronello helpe Kempf and Shelton in the outfield.

Volley For Victory Coach Glada Munt had high hopes for the upcoming season as 5 starters were returning from last year ' s team, but the Bucs fell just shy of their goal - a national championship. The team started out well and moved into October ranked 8th in the NAIA poll . The Bucs gained mo- mentum into the second half of the sea- son when they took first place in the Missouri Western Invitational Tourna- ment. The Bucs beat NAIA-5th ranked Uni- versity of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, NAIA- 2nd ranked Arkansas-Little Rock, and handed the host team NCAA Division II- 4th ranked Central Missouri State their first loss. After this spectacular showing, the Bucs were ranked in the top 5 of the NAIA poll throughout the rest of the sea- son. The Bucs beat Texas Lutheran Col- lege for the NAIA IV title (15-11, 13-15, 15-12, 15-11) and then travelled to Ft. Worth and beat Texas Wesleyan College, the NAIA District VIM champions, in 5 games (16-14, 9-15, 18-16, 5-15, 15-11) to take the BiDistrict Championship. The next stop for the Bucs was the NAIA Na- tional Tournament, which was hosted by Texas Wesleyan College in Ft. Worth. The Bucs were seeded second going into the tournament, but they ran into noth- ing but bad luck and bad bounces. The Bucs fell to Brigham Young University- Hawaii, Graceland College-Iowa, and Mesa College-Colorado. They ended their season 31-13. Tela Lindsey (34% kill efficiency, 5.3 kills per game, 92% serving percentage, and 85% passing percentage) was named to the NAIA All-American Second Team. Both Tela and Kathy were voted to the NAIA District IV First Team and junior Kristy Horton was voted to the NAIA Dis- trict IV Second Team. The Bucs will be losing 3 seniors this year: Tela Lindsey, Kathy Chapman, and Ann Hargrove, an excellent middle blocker who has won various all-tourna- ment awards throughout her career.

While the team didn ' t quite make a .500 season, it was a winning year in many ways. For the first time in the history of the team, Southwestern brought home a victory over arch rivals, the Baylor Bears, during the season opener. Other big wins included a blow-out victory of 17-3 over Louisiana State University. The game against Louisiana marked the highest score during one game for the Bucs. Another first for the Bucs was a 12-7 win over the Texas A M Aggies. Other wins for the Bucs included two victories over the Houston Lacrosse Club. The 1987 season was a season of re- cords for the Bucs. Don Earles set a re- cord for the most goals scored during one game with six goals against the Ag- gies. Earles also lead the team in total scoring with a total of forty goals. Rob Ranee and Dan Boobar set a record for most assists in one game with four as- sists each. Ranee led the team with twelve assists, followed by Boobar with nine. The team gained national recognition with attack player Wynne Haemisegger. Currently she is the only woman playing men ' s lacrosse. It is estimated that over three million people have heard of Southwestern and the Southwestern La- crosse team due to all the publicity she received during the past year. The annual lacrosse banquet was held April 15. Three awards were given to three outstanding players. Sophomore Don Earles was named most valuable player for his forty goals. Senior Dan Boobar was named most improved play- er and freshman Reid Morrison was named Rookie of the Year. The captains also awarded some special awards to some special team members. Senior Russell Klawunn was awarded the hatchet award for his devotion to the penalty box. Sophomore Rob Ranee was given the hot dog award for his spectac- ular dancing on the field. The end of the 1987 season marks the end of an era for the Bucs. Five of the seven remaining charter members of the team will be graduating. These five are Treg Taylor, Russell Klawunn, Jon Rice, Dan Boobar and Travis Mathis. These five along with charter members Monty Curtis and Matt Norris were with the team when the Bucs didn ' t score half the goals Don Earles scored during one season. They played during the year when the team was so small that substi- tutes were something the other teams had.

Coach Mike Fabritius was pleased with the results of the tournament and the season as a whole. The men ' s team compiled a 6-5 record, while the women were 7-4 for the spring season. In the tournament three Southwest- ern players reached the finals. Andrew James lost a close match in the finals to Schreiners number one singles player. Liza Brethouwer also lost in the wom- en ' s singles finals. Liza then teamed up with Kim Haney in the doubles finals and came away just short of the victory. Coach Fabritius said, The season was a great one. Anytime the kids compile a winning record against scholarship teams, they have to feel good about the job they have done. 106 Sports lr ' ■ - - - ■ Players Awarded For 1987 Achievements Honored at the Southwestern All-Sports Picnic held in April were: from left, freshman Ray Baranco, men ' s basketball, All-District (first team), All-America (honorable mention); sophomore Stephanie Baker, women ' s basket- ball, All-District (first team); senior Jim Rathburn, men ' s basketball, All District (second team); junior Kristi Horton, volleyball, All-District (second team); senior Kathy Chapman, volleyball, All-District (first team), All-America (second team); senior Tela Lindsey, volleyball, All-District (first team), All-America (first team), and senior Greg Potter, men ' s basketball, All-District (honorable mention).

In the 86-87 year, the Art Association succeeded in almost doubling its membership from the pre- vious year. Sponsored events included two museum trips, one to Fort Worth to see the Kimball, Amon Carter, and Fort Worth Museums of Fine Arts, and one to the Houston Museum of Fine Arts. The trip to Houston was coupled with an ar- chitectural tour of Houston given by Dr. Howe. Other events were a film series on artists and a reception for the stu- dent art show at the end of the year. 110 Organizations Top left: Art Association members touring Houston museums and galleries.

Organizations 111 The Megaphone The 1986-1987 edition of the Mega- phone will go down in history as Volume 81. The editor-in-chief was Joey Gimenez. His able-bodied assistants were; Joe Ev- ans, sports; Stephanie Gimenez, arts and entertainment; Aimee O ' Malley, fiction and reporting; Katie Parvin, on-campus activities; and Teri Parvin, sports. The staff reporter was Kenny Simon. Typeset- ting was diligently labored over by Heidi Lewis, Laura Byrd, and Lara Stewart. Jill Boone helped the Assistant Editors com- plete the lay-out each Wednesday night. Heidi Lewis managed the advertising. Sean Williams, Chuck Flagg, Joe Weeden, and Shelly Boykin contributed their pho- tography skills. The art contributions came from Stephanie Gimenez, Wes Wil- laert (creator of the Whip cartoon), and Chris Douglas. The form and content progressed steadily over the year. Because SU does not have a journalism department per se the Editor and his assistants relied heavily on the ideas and assistance of the head of the Student Publication Board, Ben Sher- man, and University Relations writer, Jill Mayfield. With their aid the Megaphone steadily refined a professional look and increased the Megaphone ' s popularity. The best thing which occured over the course of the year was the increasing in- volvement of the students with the news- paper. Their contributions made the Megaphone a very well rounded and cam- pus-oriented publication. Hopefully the future will produce such similar interest in the communication outlet provided by the Megaphone. by Joey Gimenez Top: Joey Gimenez. the intrepid editor of the Megaphone, is busily at work.

To raise money for our philanthropies, Children ' s Cancer Research and scholar- ships for collegiates, we held our annual Spaghetti Dinner in November, and sold Crushes for Valentine ' s Day. We also don- ated food to the Mary Bailey Day Care Center, a local organization. In addition to our philanthropy, we were very involved in activities and orga- nizations on campus. We participated in University Sing, put in strong perfor- mances for intramurals, and had several members involved in theatre. This year, our chapter celebrated its seventy-fifth anniversary. We held an Alumnae Barbecue in San Gabriel Park. We had the opportunity to meet many Tri Deltas, sing songs, and ate great food. That night, March 28, 1987, we had a formal at the La Mansion Hotel in Austin. Everyone had a great time with collegiate members and many alumnae. 118 Organizations Top: Deltas at their 75th Barbeque celebration. Above: Deltas on a chapter roll. Delta Zeta Delta Zeta was founded at Miami Uni- versity in Oxford, Ohio, on October 24, 1902. Delta Zeta is the largest national sorority on the Southwestern University campus and the Gamma Zeta chapter is recognized as having the highest grade point average in Texas and New Mexico for the past seven years. The Gamma Zeta chapter is also recognized for having many members involved in different cam- pus activities which include: membership in Alpha Chi, Cardinal Key, SNEA, Resi- dent ' s Life staff, Student Foundation, Stu- dent Senate, Student Affairs, Union Pro- gram Council, Mask and Wig, the Literary Magazine, Delta Omicron, Who ' s Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges, Representatives to the Hu- manities Division, Student Representa- tives to the Search Committees, SCOPE, and the founding of Student Christian Fel- lowship and the English Society.

Xi Chapter has sponsored the Great American Smokeout on campus. Re- sponse to this year ' s smokeout was the best ever. On November 19th, Xi Chapter received an award from MDA for fundrais- ing efforts which equaled to over 1,000 dollars for MDA. Xi Chapter was quite active on campus. Joe Evans was president of the student judiciary: Joey Gimenez was editor of the Megaphone; and Steve Katsurinis was the president of both IFC and the student senate. In addition, four brothers served on the student judiciary, six served as stu- dent senators, and eleven members played Varsity Lacrosse. Besides its tradition, philanthropies, and involvement on campus. Xi Chapter of Kappa Alpha held many social events throughout the year.

It is a charming city catering to tourists without being touristique . The Angevins fondly have named Universite Catholique de I ' Quest of Angers as the Cato. What most people don ' t realize is that thanks to years of work by former professor Dr. Regine Reynolds-Cornell, Southwestern has a sister relationship with the Cato whereby any student with department approval may study there with automatic transfer of credit. One group from Southwestern included Andrea Burleson, Jill Carpenter, Ridge Dacy, Jay Huddleston, Elizabeth Rath- burn, Karyn Sahl, Rick Whittacker and Buffie Evans. Our class days were long and tiring. There was not a lot of work outside of class but the work in class I found pretty demanding. There were students from something like forty countries in the in- ternational program at the Cato. I loved meeting all those people and learned quite a lot about other cultures from my conversation and oral expression classes with them, by Buffie Evans Top: Andrea, Buffie, Karyn, Jill, Jay and Elizabeth prepare for a night out in France.

All of the problems of everyday existence were still present, as well as the good times, but it was all in a new context with new surroundings. That is precisely what made the semester abroad such a valuable experience. One of the everyday occurrences that was an integral part of London life was the subway system called the Underground or tube. The tubes were a necessity for getting around, but at the same time pro- vided a good opportunity to see the diver- sity of the London population. When not using the underground sys- tem, simply taking a walk was an incredi- bly enjoyable way to spend an afternoon. The special thing about walking in London is that no matter where you go, you can always find some obscure historical spot or famous person ' s home. There is just so much history behind the city that it never ceases to provide some new aspect to a place that may have been visited many times before. I had many wonderful experiences there, as well as abroad, and there is not a single reply to explain the months spent there. I think this program is an invaluable asset to a Southwestern education. I guess it will have to suffice to say that it was an experience in life, and one that I will remember, and treasure, forever, by Leslie Williamson Top: Members of the London Program.

Organizations 131 Alpha Delta Pi On February 7, 1907 Zeta Chapter of Alpha Delta Pi was founded on the South- western University campus. Eighty years later this strong sisterhood continues its long standing traditions. Under the leadership of Karen Schroeder as president, the ADPi ' s par- ticipated in various events throughout the 1986-87 school year. They performed in Sing as guys and girls and showed up as pumpkins for the Homecoming Parade. Later in October the annual Alpha Delta Pi Play Day took place. Proceeds went to their national philantrophy, the Ronald McDonald House. Rush proved to be very successful for Alpha Delta Pi, bringing in twenty-one women to strengthen the life of this sis- terhood. Perhaps the most exciting event the ADPi ' s participated in was their 80th Birthday party on February 7, 1987. They were honored to welcome back daugh- ters of their Charter members and many other familiar faces. Another honor the ADPi ' s enjoyed was receiving the highest scholarship among sororities for the fall semester with an overall GPA of 3.22. March was the month for the Alpha Del- ta Pi State Convention and Zeta chapter brought home many awards to add to their previous ones. There were many other activities in which the ADPi ' s could be found partici- pating in throughout the busy school year. Zeta chapter looks forward to an- other eighty years of a strong and suc- cessful sisterhood. Top: 1987 Pledge class at KA Derby Day Above left: Leslie Wilson and Sheri Roberts at ADPi Lion Hunt.

Organizations 133 The Yearbook Staff Members of the Yearbook Staff worked this past year to create a quality year- book. Members attended workshops where they designed pages, typed arti- cles and captions, and organized photo- graphs and data on the pages. Staff members included Tonia Cook, Brooke Burris, Jill Boone, Alison Green, Katie Parvin, Holly Marshall, Michelle Glick, Tracy Phillips, and Heidi Lewis. The 1987 Sou ' wester photographers were Joe Weedon and Chuck Flagg. These pho- tographers undertook taking portrait pic- tures of SU students, the organization group shots, photos of the campus, and many of the other candids which appear in the book. Kenny Simon contributed his photography and writing skills as well. Ben Sherman advised the editor Steph- anie Gimenez. Jill Mayfield and many oth- ers, including Dan Yoxall, also cooperated in the creation of the book. Top: Tonia Cook and Heidi Lewis work on a layout.

Organizations 135 Mask And Wig Players As the year draws to a close it seems one can look back and find that in 1986- 1987 we have seen a lot more of Mask and Wig than in years past. Few may real- ize that Mask and Wig is one of the oldest organizations established here at South- western. The group membership accepts both theatre and non-theatre students, however it does require participation in at least two shows. Performing in Home- coming ' s Sing started off the year with songs from A Chours Line, Grease, Little Shop of Horrors, and La Cage Aux Folles. This year ' s performances were The Mer- chant of Venice with guest artist David Fox Brenton; Hayfever, John Oertling ' s last show to direct here at S. U.; the musi- cal How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying; and the traditional Experi- ments in Theatre. Activities such as skat- ing, bowling, rolling and attending shows filled our year, creating both the best and the worst of times which is typical in the life of the theatre. 136 Organizations ■ ■ Top: Tim McGarity and Kim Breckon portray Romeo and Juliette.

Athletic Recreation, and Leisure) is devot- ed to the development of lifetime athletic recreational skills and to service to the campus and community in the develop- ment of fitness through recreational exer- cise. PEARL swung into action in earnest in its second year at Southwestern, high- lighting the year with a rockclimbing trip to the Enchanted Rock State Natural Area in April. PEARL also provided service to the campus and community by provid- ing marshalls for the Georgetown Classic Bicycle Race, judges for several local ju- nior high school track meets, served as concession workers at the state Cross Country meets and selected Southwest- ern baseball and volleyball games. PEARL provided academic stress relief in both the fall and spring semesters with two tubing trips down the upper Guadalupe River out of New Braunfels as well as sponsoring the first annual Strongest Man and Woman on Campus Contest. 138 Top: Members of PEARL Above: PEARL mem- bers rappelmg down the East Face into Three Cracks Cave at Enchanted Rock State Natural Area Top Left: PEARL members at Enchanted Rock State Natural Area.

The top six callers this year were Kate Butler, Matt Dean, Laura Degenhart, Mi- chelle Glick, Judy Lukert, Tom Oliver, and Steve Sergiovanni. Chaperone Dan Yoxall took the six top callers on a cruise to Nassau, Bahamas. The trip was filled with fun, excitement and many unforgettable moments.

Organizations 145 Resident Life Staff One of the things I just loved about be- ing an R.A. were the 4:00 a. m. lockout calls from partied-out people. Just a small part of our 24 hour job was then finding out that their keys were in their pockets. But most people think we ' re on duty only a few times a week to lock the doors at night and kick the guys out after mid- night. For us, though, the realities of being an R. A. are more serious and entailing. Problems that we helped others encoun- ter included rape, pregnancy, suicide, de- pression, and other trials of college stu- dents. Being an R. A. helped me develop quick decision abilities and reference skills for aiding others in solving the di- lemnas. We did not try to be police officers. The rules we enforced were courtesy or safety related and depended on resident co-op- eration. One of the worthwhile elements of being an R.A. was the trust and friend- ship that developed out of a small amount of caring and help. The difficulty of Time Management was a major factor in being an R.A. We are students, we play intramurals, have extra- curricular activities and meetings. On top of this, though, we were always available for our residents to use us for advice and for problems that needed outside help in solving, by Natalie Marshall Top: Male RA ' s and SA ' s. 146 Organizations Top left: Resident Life Staff members participate in Homecoming.

[it v_ Organizations 147 Animal Rights Advocates The rights of the animals have been a controversy for hundreds of years. Slowly people began realizing that men like Descartes, who said animals feel no emotions at all, were wrong and the push for better animal welfare began. The 1900 ' s have seen great advances and setbacks in the animal welfare is- sues. However, the animal rights move- 148 Organizations ment has gained considerable momen- tum in the past five years. Animal rights issues range from a local campaign to have dogs and cats spayed and neutered to ending the baby seal slaughter. Southwestern ' s Animal Rights Advo- cates sponsored programs and disscus- sions on contemporary animal rights is- sues. We helped educate the campus community on responsible pet owner- ship and helped the Williamson County Humane Society. We had films and speakers. Before this year, there was not an animal welfare organization on campus and several students expressed a need for one. The Panhellenic Council The Panhellenic Council, composed of two representatives from each of the four national sororities on campus was originally created as an advisory and governing organization to promote in- ter-Greek relations. The Council be- longed to the National Panhellenic Con- ference and abided by National rules re- garding rush and inter-sorority relations. The Panhellenic Council at Southwest- ern encouraged growth and develop- ment of individuals and sororities and worked to create a strong unified Pan- hellenic spirit. The Council promoted a Go Greek campaign, worked on Greek Week, spon- sored a scholarship reception recogniz- ing members in all eight Greek social organizations on campus who had a GPA of 3.5 or better, and provided a pledge picnic for the Spring pledges of all eight Greek social organizations, as well as regulating Rush throughout the year. The eight member council was stronger and closer this year than ever before and was proud of all that Panhellenic had accomplished. XYZ XYZ is a fairly new organization that jwas established in the Spring of 1985. XYZ stands for Xtra Years of Zest which lis similiar to adopt a grandparent. XYZ provides interaction between college students and older adults at the Wesley- an Retirement Home. The organization has several mixers a year with the resi- dents at the retirement home along with providing an errand service once a week. The older adults enjoy the fellow- ship and the members of XYZ are able to increase their knolwedge through work- ing with residents. Organizations 149 Zeta Tau Alpha The sisters of Zeta Tau Alpha have worked to uphold our strong links to tradi- tions in modern times. The national fra- ternity, founded in 1898 at Longwood College in Farmville, Virginia, has grown to the third largest greek organization in the nation. Lambda chapter, established at Southwestern in 1906, has remained active both on campus and in our national organization. Last summer we received the Member- ship Selection Award for Excellence at our International Convention. We also placed second in University Sing with our Cats presentation. We came in first place in ADPi playday, and have been competitive in intramural sports. For the first time this year we began a traditional Iron-a-thon to raise money for our nation- al philanthropy, the National Association for Retarded Citizens. By ironing over seven hundred shirts, we raised approxi- mately $370. Yet, more important than any award of recognition we have received, is the spe- cial bond between ZTA sisters. Although we are diversified in personality and ac- tivities, we compliment one another un- der our common respect and love for one another. Within our organization we have representatives of lacrosse, basketball, music, international studies, honor soci- eties, fraternity little sisters, every major, and members of other governing bodies on campus. We have members in every facet of university life. The sisterhood within ZTA provides a strong foundation from which a member can develop and explore the various aspects of college life; making the experience one that is com- plete and fulfilling. 150 Organizations t L Top left: ZTA ' s with KA ' s on Derby Day.

UPC consisted of committees for music events, special events, recreation, travel, student activities, films, cultural events, and a radio committee. These commit- tees provided concerts, dances, lectures, films, and outings for the university popu- lation, usually at no charge to the stu- dents. Some of these activities included juggler comedian, Edward Jackman; the musical group, Regency; an all-campus Christmas Ball (preceded by ballroom dancing lessons); an inter-collegiate dance with St. Edwards University; and a student talent show; among others. Involvement in UPC existed at three levels; students could simply be audi- ences participants, they could be com- mittee members, or they could apply for a position as committee chairperson. In- volvement in UPC provided students with an opportunity for expansion of cultural tastes, growth and responsibility, and the ability to learn new skills and discover new talents. Psi Chi 152 Organizations S.C.O.P.E The Student Coalition For a An Orga- nized Peace Effort (S.C.O.P.E.) was formed in the Fall semester of 1985 by several Southwestern students whose concern over the nuclear arms race and escalating U.S. intervention in Central America compelled them to come togeth- er and work for world peace. S.C.O.P.E. works to accomplish its goals by educat- ing the campus community on peace is- sues and participating in various forms of political action, such as writing to legisla- tors, circulating petitions, and becoming involved in anti-war demonstrations. S.C.O.P.E. is a chapter of the National Organization United Campuses to Pre- vent Nuclear War.
