 A mplified potential H The University received national at- tention because of our recognition as an innovative institution of higher educa- tion. What we did not want to forget was the role we played in that reason for exposure. Without the support of any one group on campus — students, faculty, administration or staff — we could not have continued our growth with the sus- tained endurance to reach for our full potential. A successful year required effort from all of us con- nected with the Univer- sity. Mo one’s role could be called in- significant, especially when an attitude of teamwork and cooperation prevaded every aspect of main- taining our reputation. In effect, the name “Mortheast Missouri State University” became synonymous with shared strength. Games people play — Bill Barge, jr., Bill Newberry, so,, and Bob Clark, sr. win the Trivial Pursuit contest sponsored by the Pershing Society.
