Dedication Does this person seem familiar? Well for some they may think he is just another student on campus, but for most of Susquehanna University ' s staff, faculty and student body know him as Dr. John H. Longaker, Jr., professor of history. Dr. Longaker is a native of Camden, N.J., and attended public schools in Pottstown, Pa. He received his B.A. from Lafayette College, and holds a M.A. and Ph.D degrees from the University of Pennsylvania. Since his arrival at Susquehanna in 1962, he has been awarded various honors for his outstand- ing teaching and service to the campus community. In 1965 and 1969 he was named Professor of the Year by vote of the student body and in 1974 he was se- lected by his peers on the faculty as recipient of the Lindback Foundation Outstanding Teacher Award. Dr. Longaker currently is the head of the history department, and campus coordinator for the Woodrow Wilson Visiting Fel- lows Program. Susquehanna University is proud to say that Dr. Longaker is part of our campus community, and for this we dedicate this 1987 edition of the Lanthorn to you. Dr. John H. Longaker, Jr. We really do appreciate all the years and dedication that you have given us over the years.

Just as you feel when you look on the river and sky, so I felt, Just as any of you is one of a living crowd, I was one of a crowd. Just as you are refreshed by the gladness of the river and the bright flow, I was refreshed . . . —Walt Whitman
