Educational goals brought us to the University where we discovered that it also served as our first unifying factor. In the academics area, the input of students, faculty and administration energized our interdependence. The value-added concept continued its influence as we searched for academic excellence, evaluated our programs and investigated the possibility of becoming the state’s liberal arts university. Divisions tightened stand- ards to upgrade the quality of education, which was seen in the revamping of the math general education require- ment. The state legislature changed secondary educa- tion criteria to provide better- prepared teachers. Our educational methods kept learning innovative with travel workshops, unusual and diversified majors and the improvement of facilities. Our continued growth in the educational process focused our attention on the combined efforts of shared strength. In focus — Television broadcasting students. Helmut Dumfahrt. fr.. and Shelby Burgett. jr.. put together a music video for their class project. They were required to create their own versions of the trendy art form.
