The number of states on the rise for instituting safety first by making it a law to wear your seat belt, the rise of drug use on all levels and the rise, once again, of Northeast Missouri State University. The conquest of NMSU started long ago at the state level, but with a dramatic jump out of obscurity; this institution of higher learning was focusing its sights on further goals that could only have been seen in the many tomorrows yet to come. By touching reality now and starting educational advances today, NMSU made a quantum leap to the national level. That did not seem enough though and the value-added band- wagon loaded up and traveled overseas. Paris, France, was in the visions of tomorrow and this international flavor only highlighted the already successful run of many BLOWIN' IN THE WIND Members of the Showboat Gambler guard perform several times at each game.

Media exposure in nationally acclaimed periodicals allowed NMSU to touch those who had only been stuck in the mud, unwilling, perhaps, to lift their feet and travel today in hopes of reaching tomorrow. Changes are always a part of striving to be the best and NMSU did so in a major way. As the ink dried on House Bill 196, the flood gates opened on a new stretch of land not yet explored by a Missouri state university.

Though the year of new directions and remodeled avenues has passed, many items in the NMSU agenda remain the same. NMSU will continue to provide the academic leadership and excellence it strived so hard to obtain. Tomorrow may bring another set of roads to choose from. By learning today to prepare for our many tomorrows, we can lift our heads and set our sights without any reservations. For those that have just started this journey at NMSU, a special touch of developing and adapting awaits your every move. With the grind of classes and activities, tomorrow seems light years away — but in reality, it is you who must lift your feet out of the mud and stare straight ahead.

Student life is not the glue, but the cement, which allows friendships, organizations and interactions to flourish. During the week, when all is supposed to be business, students cause, create and celebrate togetherness. An SAB dance, a Lyceum speaker or a road trip out of obscurity, influences the mesh of student life. A life, as we re constantly told, not of the real world, but one of growth, expectance and maturity — the life of our world. Whether it be a class project, quarter-draws at the Tap Room ora quick trip to QuikTrip, the stu- dent's life rarely remains in neutral.

'Til Tuesday played to an audience much smaller than what their top 10 rep- utation usually attracts. However, the evenings opening act found them- selves in a much different situation. Avalon, a local band composed of three NMSU students, opened for til Tuesday after being asked to play only two hours be- fore they were to report for rehearsal. The Neo-Terrics were originally scheduled to open at the concert but til Tuesday's management decided to cancel them and replaced the Neo- Terrics with another band. The new band cancelled out the day of the concert, leaving til Tuesday's pro- duction manager with the task of finding a band for that evening. The mem- bers of Avalon were eating lunch in Missouri Hall cafe- teria when 'til Tuesday's manager asked them if they would be the opening act. Avalon's drummer and vocalist, freshman John Peterie, said, I was unbe- lievably overwhelmed when they asked us to play. I was so shocked I al- most enjoyed PFM that day.” David Qiltner, sopho- more guitarist and vocal- ist, added, I was in com- plete shock when they asked us to play. It was sur- prising and a fantastic ex- perience.' ' Avalon played nine se- lections including Twist and Shout,” Baby Come Back” and two originals; Maria” and Stay.” Sophomore Tom Jumps, Avalon's bass player and vocalist, de- scribed the band's style by saying, We provide a fresh sound by playing a wide variety of music. We don't have an image, don't want an image and we re not an alternative — we re just us.” Til Tuesday came as somewhat of a surprise. SAB didn't get the contract until about three weeks be- fore the concert. SAB con- cert chairman, senior Brian Childs, said prepara- tion still went well even though so much had to be done in such a small amount of time. Til Tuesday's contract was for $14,000 which in- cluded the cost of the show, transportation, lighting and food. This was considerably less than Cheap Trick's contract in April 1986 $25,000. Despite the short period of time to prepare, SAB still sold 1,034 tickets, which was only about 200 less than the sell-out crowd for Cheap Trick. Voices Carry,” til Tues- day's title song from their first LP which went gold and was also in the top 10, brought the crowd to their feet. Love in a Vacuum,” another hit, also brought the crowd to life. As lead singer Aimee Mann danced across the stage in her tight black knit mini, the crowd screamed and clapped to the beat of the music. Til Tuesday's five-mem- ber band played with a new bass player, Dave Darby. Other members of the band include: keyboard player Joey Pesce, drum- mer Michael Hausmann and guitarist vocalist Rob- ert Holmes. Following What About Love,” the last song of the concert, Mann told the au- dience they had been very nice” and thanked a member of the audience for a necklace given to her during the song. Many students were very satisfied with til Tuesday. They were great,” sophomore Clare Cassity said. I've heard them in concert before in North Da- kota but I really enjoyed some of the new songs they played at this con- cert.” I loved it,” freshman Vicki Porter said. I would definitely come back if I had the chance. I thought the keyboard player was hot — really hot.” Although a lot of people enjoyed the concert, not everyone was impressed by the performance. The band was a big let- down,” freshman Natalie Kim said. I've seen them before and they were a lot better. I think they knew they didn't have to per- form their best because they were playing in Kirks- ville. They were really mel- low and so was the crowd.” For Avalon, the concert is certain to have an effect on their reputation be- cause they were exposed to a much larger crowd than usually hears them on Thursday evenings at the Nite Life Lounge. The crowd was really receptive,” said Qiltner. When you have girls Jum- ping up and down and screaming, it really makes a difference.” For til Tuesday it was the same old thing—just another night on the road with the same routine. Af- ter playing ten songs and signing several auto- graphs behind Baldwin Hall, the band loaded up to head for their next concert destination in Chicago. — Michelle Blotevogel — ELECTRICAL MAYHEM A W Tues- day stagehand checks over the bands equipment pryor to the Dec. 5th concert in Baldwin Auditorium played in front of 1,000 fans.

Weeks before the con- cert, anticipation began to build. Local radio station KTUF, co-sponsor of the concert, gave away tickets prior to the concert. SAB also sold tickets and filled the 1500 seats of Baldwin Mall two days be- fore the actual concert. Bonnie Neuner, chair- woman of SAB s concert committee said, I don't think you could find a bet- ter show for the price that the students paid. I was re- ally pleased with the way things went with the SAB and the band. The best part of it was Kick Nielsen. He got the crowd involved, senior Bill Akers said. Lead singer Robin Zan- der belted out lyrics as Nielsen jammed and threw guitar picks into the excit- ed crowd. The crowd really be- came a part of the show, singing along with the band on their more popu- lar songs such as I Want You to Want Me. It didn't seem hard to coax the band back onto stage. More, more, more. the crowd chanted. Cheap Trick played Surrender as an encore. I think all along they planned to come back, and saved their best for last, junior Dan Sitzmore said.

Fortunately, this scenar- io was only a drill to train REAL-LIFE DRAMA Campus and community cooperate to produce on award- winning disaster people to act quickly and effectively in the event of a real disaster. March 19 was the date and Missouri Hall was the site for NMSU's first-ever mock disaster. The mock disaster was organized by the Residence Life staff but organizations outside NMSU also participated. When The Association of College and University Housing Officers met Nov. 6 and 7, the members of the Residence Life staff were presented with an award for their efforts in the mock disaster pro- gram. NM5U was selected for the award from among 215 schools in an eight-state region. When ACUHO met in LaCrosse, Wis., Ron Gaber, director of Resi- dence Life, said the award was given to the school that promoted the most in- novative and radical idea in safety. A variety of schools en- tered their ideas on safety awareness, but none of them were as original as ours,” Gaber said. The idea to have a mock disaster situation came from people within the Residence Life staff. The facility committee tried to brainstorm ways to improve safety awareness in the event that a real dis- aster occurred, Gaber said. Senior Penne Eiken played the role of a con- cerned parent when the mock disaster took place. Her duty was to call the NMSU Public Relations Of- fice to find out more as the mock disaster unfolded. ‘1 feel they deserved the award because the event did involve carrying out a lot of planning, Gaber said. I think the event made the community aware of what could hap- pen during a real disaster, especially in training peo- ple on how to effectively deal with such a problem. Lori Haxton, assistant di- rector of Residence Life, participated in the mock disaster. Her job, along with others, was to make the mock victims up to look as if they had really sustained injuries. It was a lot of fun, Hax- ton said. The doctors who checked the victims' injuries at the hospitals commented on the excel- lent make up. Many agencies outside the University were in- volved such as the Kirks- ville Police Dept, and Grim Smith Hospital. The KPD is showing tapes of their in- volvement to train people on disaster procedures. Gaber said all involved learned a great deal from their experiences, but said such an event won't take place every year. Right now we think we might have one every third or fourth year, Gaber said. ACUHO will hold their in- ternational convention in Los Angeles this summer. This meeting will provide schools from all over the world a view of what the Residence Life staff here at NMSU did in order to estab- lish a mock disaster. ----- Scott Hawkins ------ CLUSTER or PAIN Participants In this drill, put on by Residence Life, lie waiting for assistance from volunteers who helped In the reality of the event.

Photo by Dixon Munday Student Life 15 Disaster For a brief moment on September 30 at 8 a.m., approximately 70 students carried on the national rec- ognition held by HMSU. There were no com- mon achievements among them that led to their fame. Some were Student RISE AND Senate members. Others were cheerleaders or soc- cer players. Still others were members of the Inter- national Association of Business Communicators and other organizations. But these chosen 70 were united to address millions of Americans, by reciting the famous phrase, Good morning, America!” “It was neat to see peo- ple I knew,” Elin Cogan, graduate student, said. “I think also that it was good publicityjust because peo- ple hear our name.” The idea to be on “Good Morning America” was thrown about last spring, and was originally planned to be a part of Dog Days '86, according to sopho- more Homecoming chair- man Tim Bahr. Because of lack of time, the sponsors. Alpha Sigma Tau social sorority and Student Senate, decided to delay the project until fall, and make it a part of the Homecoming events. Alpha Sigma Tau's respon- sibilities were to act simply as a liasion between the Student Senate and KTVO, which filmed the spot. Bahr said there was a lot of controversy about Al- pha Sigma Tau's participa- tion. “A lot of people thought Alpha Sigma Tau just went out and picked people they knew, and that just simply wasn't true,” Bahr said. Bahr sent out releases about the project with the Homecoming registration forms, which were distrib- uted to all campus organi- zations and to the resi- dence halls. “We tried to make it available to anyone who was interested, not just Greeks and not just one or- ganization. We wanted a wide representation of stu- dents,” Bahr said. Bahr did admit that there were a few that were asked to be in the spot, such as Jessica Coleman, 1985 Homecoming Queen and a football player and cheerleaders, as a symbol of Homecoming. Mine takes of the stu- dents were videotaped on September 11, in front of the Kirk Memorial Building by KTVO cameraman Mark Anderson. There were three sets of three different takes, to give ABC a variety to choose from. “I had a lot of fun with it,” Bahr said. “I know it was short, but it was neat. And with our national rec- ognition as it is, when you hear our name, it sticks.” “I thought it was a lot of fun, because people would be watching us in their pa- jamas all over the coun- try,” junior Kevin Fitzpa- trick said. “I called my mom and dad in St. Louis, and my aunt and uncle in Hew York, but they didn't see me,” he added. Fitzpatrick was repre- senting the Pundit. Junior Liz Greene also saw the advantages of the taping. “Of course there will be some publicity, as it is a national show, and people from all overgo here.” she said. “I think it was just a little push for HMSU. ---- Helen Turnbull ----- ROLL CM Photographers from KTVO and I ABC film the long awaited good morning.

Three desks, stacks of plastic milk crates and another bed are crowded HOUSE FULL Skyrocketing enrollment forces creative arrangement of students into the remaining floor space. This scene — a compact triple room — has almost disappeared from the University, caus- ing a lack of space for in- coming freshmen in the residence halls. The number of compact triple rooms in Centennial and Ryle halls was de- creased from 100 to six. The remaining six will be phased out by next year. Darlene Baker, Resi- dence Life Assistant, said the elimination of the com- pact triples caused a lack of living space for incom- ing freshmen. 'We had enough room in the male halls, but we were unable to house all of the women, Baker said. Freshmen roommates were assigned to the 26 resident advisers in the women's halls. All of these were con- sidered temporary hous- ing. Most students were able to move into another room after the first few weeks, Baker said. Freshman Diana Lawson was assigned to live with sophomore Janet Clay- poole, Blanton Hall R.A. 'I liked living with Janet, but I didn't get to see her much because she was so busy, Lawson said. Lawson moved to a two- person room in Blanton in the third week of school. I didn't get to have the Student Life Overcrowding fun of arranging our room and deciding where to put everything. She had al- ready been at school for a couple of weeks and had everything put together, Lawson said. Freshmen were also placed in both Fair and Campbell apartments. We placed somewhere between 30-35 students in the University apartments. These were also consid- ered as temporary hous- ing, Baker said. Other freshmen were able to arrange to live off- campus by working with the Residence Life Office or the Admissions Office. Many students chose to live with brothers or sisters or other relatives. When we ran out of spaces in the halls, we encouraged stu- dents not to attend school here, Baker said. If the halls were that full, classes would also be closed. Deadlines for both re- newal and new student room payments were made due in June. Previ- ously, renewal payments were due in July. The initial $40 deposit was also made non-refundable. Students often used us as a cheap insurance poli- cy. They could renew their rooms in the hall and then if something better came up, they could cancel, Baker said. Making a fina- ncial commitment makes them make a decision. Despite the crowd at the beginning of the semester. Residence Life did not in- crease the number of com- pact triple rooms. It's the intent of the Uni- versity to stay at around 5,700 students. We had to consider that and decide if we wanted to crowd our liv- ing space. Our answer was no , Baker said. Instead of bunkbeds and milk crates, residence hall rooms may soon be hous- ing easy chairs, Japanese- style futons and coffee tables in the extra space. -----Callen Fairchild----- LOADED DOWN A student, get- ting help from her mom, moves into Ryle Mall.

When they named my division I yelled like I've never yelled be- fore. It was a great feeling. ” Bachelor's degrees were presented to 917 students, 73 students earned mast- er's degrees and 11 stu- dents received education specialist degrees. Four seniors earned a perfect 4.0 grade point av- erage during their college careers and were named valedictorians. The four were Susan Plassmeyer, Sherry Jack- son, Karla Ponder and Rick McVeigh. Once all of the degrees and awards were pre- sented the graduates and audience joined together under the direction of Clay Dawson, associate pro- fessor of music, to sing “Old Missou.” The song summed up the ceremony in the words of Basil Brew- er, a 1901 graduate. Junior Lori Merman said she was surprised at how casual many seniors seemed to be about the ceremony. “Because I know almost everyone considers col- lege graduation to be one of the major milestones in their lives it was different to see them being so casual — cups in their hands, waving to the crowd, mes- sages on their mortar- boards. There are always a lot of mixed emotions at graduation time,” Herman said. “I was sad to see a lot of really good friends leave, yet I was glad for them be- cause I knew they were ready to move on.” When the ceremony was over, students were seen celebrating all over Kirks- ville, ready to begin a new phase of life in the quick and ever-changing world. ----Callen Fairchild----- Feelings of excitement and anticipation filled the atmosphere as more than 1,000 students filed into Pershing Arena on May 9 for spring commencement FINALLY MAY exercises, realizing they would soon be touching tomorrow today. Families and friends cre- ated a wave of pastels as they squeezed into the crowded gymnasium.

Whistles, cheers, and shouts were heard ev- ery time friends or family were spotted in the crowd. Shaila Aery, commis- sioner of the Missouri Co- ordinating Board for High- er Education, delivered the commencement speech. Aery said rapid changes would occur in the next 10 years, making the world even better than it was for the previous generations, and that each graduate had the capabilities to make a difference in this world. “These changes will not take place mechanically,” Aery said. “It takes human participation and vision. Each of us has the capacity to change the world.” Aery concluded: “Com- mencement is always a time of celebration.

Mo reason for the drop in numbers was established. Some fraternity members BYE BYE BEER Fraternities have mixed opinions on the effects of the new dry rush policy however, attributed the decrease to specific fac- tors which affect their own groups. The biggest controver- sial issue that faced all fra- ternities was the dry rush policy that went into effect last fall. The policy stated that no alcohol would be served during rush activi- ties. Dry rush received both positive and negative re- views from fraternities. Most fraternities agreed that dry rush benefited their rush efforts because it eliminated the so-called professional rushees. Everyone who signs up is really interested in join- ing a fraternity and not just interested in going to all the parties, senior Roger Walgren, Sigma Tau Gam- ma rush chairman said. I think dry rush was beneficial for our organiza- tion, junior Jeff Rayfield, Alpha Kappa Lambda president said. Several organizations held barbecues along with athletic activities. Phi Kappa Theta altered their annual band party by serv- ing non-alcoholic beer, while Pi Kappa Phi held a Student Life 22 pinball and a video night. It wasn't hard planning activities. It just took a lit- tle more thought than sim- ply going out and buying a keg,” sophomore Chris Jordan, Phi Sigma Kappa rush co-chairman said. I think the hardest part of organizing it is over, Rayfield said, nowall the members know what to ex- pect and we've already done the brainstorming to create activities. The activ- ities will stay basically the same from now on. Although the activities were planned according to the dry rush policy, some fraternities were reported- ly investigated for alleged alcohol violations. Dean of Students Terry Smith said. Mo fraternities were penal- ized. The policy was not uni- versally adhered to, but there were no flagrant violations that warranted penalties, Smith said. Penalizing an organiza- tion for holding a party away from the fraternity house was complicated because it was difficult to prove the purpose was for rushing members. Smith said. Rush chairmen and the Interfratemity Council members attributed any disorganization or lack of communication to the fact that this was the first com- pletely dry rush. “It was rough as far as getting it organized. Down on paper it looked fine, but there were problems in communication such as getting date notices to the fraternities, sophomore John Witte, second vice- president in charge of rush for the I PC said. Junior Mollice Clark, member of Lambda Chi Al- pha, felt that scheduling and organizational prob- SPIRIT WITHOUT SPIRITS Members of Pi Kappa Phi fraterni- ty and little sisses attend a foot- ball game to promote themselves to potential rushees. Photo by Valerie Hoeppncr lems existed. The night we had rota- tion there was a dance on the mall, and a lot of guys went to it to see the girls rather than participate in the rotation, Clark said. Rotations involve divid- ing the rushees into groups and rotating them to different fraternities for an allotted amount of time. Another problem Clark cited was a communica- tion gap with freshmen rushees. They were not informed well enough about where to get their IPC cards and did not fully understand the rotation system, he said. A communication gap was not the only problem that Sigma Tau Gamma had concerning freshmen. Because the fraternity's grade point average for spring '86 dropped below the average GPA of their last five semesters. Sigma Tau Gamma was not al- lowed to rush members without 15 hours of estab- lished credit. Fraternities found that there was a strong move toward a nationwide prac- tice of dry rushes on col- lege campuses. We found at our na- tional Conference that the number of our chapters who participate in dry rushes had more than doubled in the past year, sophomore Todd Pruett, Phi Kappa Theta rush chairman said. Our na- tional gave us several ideas for activities, but we did not get them in time to organize them. It will take a few years to work out all of the bugs, but it is a productive rush method, Jordan said. I believe it was orga- nized pretty well for the first time, Rayfield said. -----Barb Dietrich-------- Dry Rush FRATERNITIES PULL TOGETH- ER Phi Kappa Theta members participate in non-alcholic activi- ties held during rush.

Dermatologist Lloyd Cleaver at the Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine is very much op- posed to the use of tanning beds, he saw the effects of sun exposure while work- ing a private practice in California and also while working with the Los Ange- les Olympics and the Navy. We re just starting to see the results from the tanning craze 10 to 20 years ago. In another 10 to 20 years we ll find out what the intense exposure of UVA rays will do to the skin, Dr. Cleaver said. Sunlight is composed of three basic ultraviolet rays, the UVA, UVB and UVC. The UVA (ultraviolet alpha) is believed to be the least harmful of the three. The theory behind tanning beds is to remove the UVB (ultraviolet beta) rays, which are the most damag- ing and harmful, and to leave the UVA. Managers and owners of the tanning salons claim the beds are safer than the sun because of this theory. Using the tanning beds, they say, is good for you, making you look and feel better. Studies show, however, the tanning beds emit wav- elengths different and more hazardous than the sun. The UVA rays can damage blood vessels in the skin and might affect the immune system, as well as damaging connec- tive tissue, making the skin age earlier. I don't think it's any- more detrimental than the sun, but I realize it in- creases my chances of skin cancer and it may speed up the aging pro- cess, junior Beth Cun- ningham said. My awareness of the dangers of tanning is in- creasing. With continued usage, I discover more about it, Cunningham added. The American Medical Association has sent let- ters and information about the hazards of the ultravio- let rays used in tanning beds to dermatologists. Dr. Cleaver said UVA ra- diation can contribute to skin cancer. He has done studies on the effects of UVA radiation, which the Academy of Dermatology is now furthering. Even though this is true, many continue to tan. The businesses in Kirksville alone bring in approxi- mately 254 people on an average day. It makes me feel better about myself. I am suscep- tible to colds and tanning makes me feel better phys- ically and it is relaxing. senior Dawn Porter said. “I think it's worth it. I'll do anything for a tan, sophomore Robin Cav- anaugh said. Dr. Cleaver stated there is no such thing as a healthy tan and if you con- tinue to expose yourself to ultraviolet radiation, you're playing with fire. ----- Kathy Betcher----- ROUND STRETCHING RAYS Karen Walker, so., uses the imitaiion sun to darken her skin.

This new business was the Gym.

Weight training with both free and circuit weights was offered to members only. The Gym used Badger equipment. Women like it better than nautilus. The equip- ment seems to fit women better, but men use it also, Tucker said. There's much better equipment at the Gym; it's newer and much better taken care of. You can lift at your own convenience, not at set times like Per- shing, junior Andy Rein- holz said. “I use the Gym instead of Pershing because of the hours of availability and the space, senior Dave McWhorter said. ----- Kathy Betcher------- Student Life 25 The Gym • . mn The month of April wel- comed a new tradition at NMSU. Student Senate and vari- ous campus organizations organized the first cam- pus-wide University week. We had a tri-fold pur- A DOG's LIFE pose in mind when we were planning the week. One, to celebrate the new mission. Two, to bring unity to cam- pus and three, to have something especially de- signed for the students in the spring, Student Sen- ate President Bonnie Nuener said. Dog Days 86” was the name given to University Week which ran from April 24-27. At the opening cere- monies on Thursday, Uni- versity President Charles McClain proclaimed the week officially open and in- stilled Dog Days” as its permanent name. The NMSU jazz band played at the opening cere- monies. There were perfor- mances from two black fra- ternities, Franklin Street Singers and the Showgirls. The NMSU cheerleaders closed the opening cere- monies with a few crowd participation cheers. Other activities during Dog Days 86” included an ice cream social and a service auction, where members of the student body and faculty were auc- tioned off for services. McClain was sold at the service auction for $27 and his service was to buy his purchaser lunch at the lake. The service auction raised $98. This money, plus the proceeds from T- shirt and button sales will go into a student loan fund started by the Student Sen- ate. On Friday night the rock band Cheap Trick put on a concert in Baldwin Hall Au- ditorium. Anticipation for the con- cert had begun to build weeks before the actual event. SAB sold 1500 tick- ets and Filled the seats in Baldwin Hall Auditorium. As lead singer Robin Zander had powered out the lyrics of many of the band's popular songs like I Want You to Want Me” and More, More, More,” guitarist Rick Nielson got the audience involved. Saturday there was a Spring Fest on the court- yard in front of Blanton Nason-Brewer. Most of the events were held on the Blanton Na- son-Brewer courtyard. We picked this place because it was centrally lo- cated and a heavy traffic area for students,” Neuner said. The Final event of Dog Days 86” was a pic- nic at Thousand Hills State Park which was sponsored by SAB. We thought that stu- dents needed something to do in the spring, so we planned the week right be- fore finals so they could use it as a tension re- lease,” senior Alice Pope, representative for Gamma Phi Delta social sorority said. I was really happy with the way it went. I think all the events were success- ful. I hope its even better next year,” Neuner said.

But the wet weather did not stop parents from trav- FAMILY FUN eling the distance to Kirks- ville. Instead, it boasted the largest Parents' Day at- tendance since its begin- ning 31 years ago. Parents' Day 1986 began in the Student Union Build- ing Quiet Lounge, where students introduced their parents to roommates, friends and instructors. Alpha Sigma Gamma service sorority distributed campus maps and Par- ents' Day itineraries and sold meal and football tickets. They also pre- sented two programs for younger brothers and sis- ters and a What's NMSU All About?” program for ol- der kids. Parents were invited to attend a presentation in Baldwin Hall Auditorium, which began with a per- formance from the MEMO Singers. The record-break- ing 5,110 group of parents crowded into the auditori- Moms and Dads arrive on campus for a picnic, speeches, and football um, leaving many standing in the wings. President Charles McClain, Dean of Students Terry Smith and Student Senate President Bonnie Neuner spoke to the crowd. You are appreciated. You're there for support when we need you,” Neun- er said. In her speech, Meuner attributed her scholastic success to her parental support. Smith led an audience participation activity which revealed that some par- ents were from places as far away as Fort Worth, Texas and Sacramento, Calif. Lorraine Lee of LaPlata, Mo., attended her 11th Parents' Day with her son, Mike. Lee, a senior at NMSU, will be the fourth child from his family to graduate from the Univer- sity. 1 really enjoy Parents' Day. This one is the most crowded and the rainiest,” Lee said. McClain, in his address to the parents in Baldwin Hall, had a Thank-you” for them. Parents support higher education. That's the best thing they can do for the country,” McClain said. He also had a reminder for the students. Don't forget to say I love you Mom and Dad .” Lunch was served 11 a.m. -1 p.m. as a picnic in Pershing Arena. While some families enjoyed the indoor picnic, others visit- ed residence hall rooms and investigated the cam- pus. Parents' Day gives peo- ple a chance to see the Uni- versity in session, when we're not exactly putting on a show,” Smith said. It gives them a more realistic view of the campus. Parents like to meet roommates and teachers, people they can't meet in the summer or at orienta- tion, director of Student Activities Vonnie Nichols said. The rain usually only affects the football game attendance. Although Parents' Day saw a wet morning, the sun began to shine by after- noon. By kick-off time, the sky was clear and sunny. The Bulldogs brightened the day further with a 33- 28 victory over the Red- men of Northeastern State University of Oklahoma. Parents' Day activities ended with a performance by comedian Tom Parks in Baldwin Hall Auditorium. He appealed to both stu- dents and parents with his hilarious insights into col- lege experiences and how they effect everyone later in life. I thought he was hilari- ous. I thought it was appro- priate for Parents' Day, freshman Deirdre Brenner said. Parents' Day 1986 was a success because it com- bined two very influential forces in a student's life, education and family. Student Life 28 Parents' Day CAN WE TALK?

On Feb. 25 the Resi- dent's House Associa- tion sponsored the Mr. and Ms. University con- test. The scene was hectic. In Baldwin Hall, contes- tants, male and female alike, ran back and forth behind the stage cur- tains blurting out ner- vous reactions. How did you do,” one of the behind-the-scenes people asked Miss Cen- tennial Hall, junior Haney Hanson. I didn't! ' she said. Though just a contest of fun and friendship, tension and nervous- ness rose before each event. I feel like bouncing my head off the wall,” Mr. University for 1987 Les Nunn said. Flexing, going over dance steps in the stair- well and doing flips in the basement hallway were all ways of preparing and relieving tension. Through it all though, the words of advice spo- ken by last year's Ms. University, junior Shelly Lee, seemed to ring out. Keep smiling and have fun,” Lee said. The event was actually much more than the 12 contestants. Music, com- edy and an opening number helped create a full package. The contestants were selected through vari- ous means. Each resi- dence hall could spon- sor anyone interested. The final totals were sev- en entries for the women and Five for the men. Some of the entries were self-made and others were lured to perform. Perhaps the oddest sequence of events happened to Nunn, Mr. Dobson Hall. He was submitted as a prank and then ended up the men's winner. Ms. University for 1987, junior Dawn Porter was persuaded into filling out an application by her Brew- er Hall director. She said, 'Please ... please. I always see you working out, you're in Showgirls and you're so smiley and peppy, please do it for me,' ” Porter said. On the previous Sunday, each contestant went through a 15 minute inter- view with judges. The judges for the event were Jane Bartling, Physi- cal Education Division; Jason Haxton, Fine Arts Di- vision; Virginia Lee, KRXL radio station; Dave McWhorter, 1986 Mr. Uni- versity; Gina Myers, Admis- sions; Katie Steele, Stu- dent Union Building. The questions, though bizarre in nature, were asked to each contestant. They asked me what my favorite color was and how I would describe it to a blind person,” Nunn said. I told them it was an erotic color, between icy cold and really dead hot.” Nunn, a freshman, be- lieved the interview was the deciding factor in his victory. He said he re- mained open and told them exactly what came to mind. Senior Jackie Hanson said the interviews were wild” and she couldn't believe some of the ques- tions. They asked me how I would spend a million dol- lars on myself, if I could travel anywhere, where would it be and then they asked who I thought were the top Decmocratic and Republican nominees for President,” Hanson, Miss Brewer Hall, said. The three areas of vot- ing, not including the inter- view, were swimsuit, eve- ning wear, and aerobic routine for the women and muscle flex for the men. While Nunn stuck by his claim of doing his best in the interview the crowd re- sponded crazily to his muscle flex routine. Nunn, perhaps the best built of the five, used the song Walk like an Egyptian” by The Bangles. At first 1 had Big Time' by Peter Gabriel. Everyone would ask me, 'What song are you doing?' 1 told them and they would go ohhhh.' So that was my second choice and I swit- ched to it.” Porter said her experi- ence in Showgirls helped her deal with her nervous- ness and the reactions of the crowd. Also, awards were given for Mr. Personality and Miss Congeniality, repre- sentative of the w ork atmo- sphere during practices. Mr. Personality, senior Greg Dailey, Mr. Blanton- Nason Hall, said his advice for anyone wishing to per- form in the future would be, Be open-minded and have a good time because it is a really good experi- ence. It gives you a chance to meet people you might not ever have met.” Other contestants were, sophomore Amy Rhodes, sophomore Patty Grigsby and sophomore Susan Hill, first runner-up and Miss Congeniality. They were all from Ryle Hall. Se- nior Valerie Widmar, sec- ond runner-up, was from Blanton-Nason. The other male contes- tants were sophomore Monte Creger, Missouri Hall; senior Jerry Schneid- er, second runner-up, Blanton-Nason and fresh- man John Beida, first run- ner-up from Dobson Hall. -----Greg Swanson--------- Student Life 30: Mr. and Ms. University GREASED LIGHTNING Qrcg Dailey, sr.. boasts his brawn be- fore the screaming audience.

All the hard work seemed to have paid off since the audience was 20- 25 percent larger than the previous summer's audi- ence. If this trend contin- ues, the theater depart- ment will soon meet its goal of building an audi- ence up from the commu- nity. It already has a strong base — 200 private indi- viduals gave contributions this summer. In an effort to further in- crease the interest and the audience, three different types of plays were used: a farce, a realistic drama and a contemporary comedy. The cast of Summerplay was joined for the season by Jeff Strong, a profes- sional actor and graduate of NMSU. Also, James En- dicott assisted as compa- ny manager and Lloyd Rhoades, instructor of the- ater, served as technical director. The student cast mem- bers of Summerplay were: seniors Monica Castro, Jason Grubbe and Amy Wood, sophomores Janet Meadows and Steve Schied. The first offering of the summer season was the play first to Last, by George feydeau. This play consists of two one-act farces. The first is The Boor Hug,” and the sec- ond was Caught With His Trance Down. They were directed by Sean Griffin, veteran of television, film and Broadway. Griffin said he was glad to be away from the intense pressures of Broadway and savored the opportunity to work with the students involved in Summerplay. The season continued with the play Little fox- es, by Lillian Heilman. The play involves the con- niving tactics used by a Southern family in their quest to raise money. Little foxes was direct- ed by Drew fracher, vice president of The American fight Directors. He is one of only nine fight masters recognized by the Society. This group specializes in choreographing fight scenes in movies. The season drew to a close with the play The Good Doctor, by Neil Si- mon. The play is a musical comedy set in Russia at the tum of the century and is based on short stories by Anton Chekhov. A dinner theater format was tried for the play. Smka described this experiment as very successful, as he said the entire series was. WHAT'S UP DOC? Portraying the good doctor. Jason Grubbe. sr., diagnoses fellow ac- tors Ellen Tucker.

Smka said that the big- gest challenge associated PLAY Rehearsing long hours brings about a worthwhile learning experience with the plays is the im- mense pressure of the time factor. But this is off- set by the fact that most summer actors are very dedicated, he added. The tight schedule pro- vides a very intense experi- ence, sophomore Steve Schied said. I learned more about theater than 1 otherwise would have in the next couple of years. The time factor also brought the cast and crew together. Everyone just clicked and it showed up on stage, Schied. Some of the most valu- able experience I gained from Summerplays was learning to work quickly WORK AND You can blow out a can- dle, but you can't blow out a fire. Once the flames be- gin to catch, the wind only blows it higher,” Peter Gabriel said in Biko — a tribute to Stephen Biko who was dragged from his VARIOUS FREEDOMS Chapter formed to acknowledge the trouble worldwide, keeping fires ablaze home and murdered in September of 1977 by South American police. Twenty-six years ago, London lawyer Peter Be- nenson began what he called the Appeal for Am- nesty, 1961. Pounded on two articles of the United nations Universal Declara- tion of Human Rights — declaring freedom of thought, conscience, reli- gion, opinion and expres- sion. The movement was to work for the release of those imprisoned solely for their beliefs. Through that move- ment, Amnesty Interna- tional was born. Voltaire said, I detest your views, but am pre- pared to die for your right to express them.” Amnes- ty International supports this ideal. Lighting a Biko-ish fire of their own, NMSU students banded together in the fall of 1986 in support of hu- man rights to form a chap- ter of Amnesty Internation- al. We want to help to free prisoners of conscience, of course, but we also want to raise awareness,” fresh- man Teri Siweck, president of the local chapter, said. So many times Ameri- cans feel that things like this are not our problem or they say, What can I do Student Life Amnesty from Kirks ville, Missouri?' We want them to know that they can and should help. This is a problem of peo- ple, not a problem of gov- ernments. All people should be concerned.” In December, the organi- zation sponsored a peti- tion drive that culminated in a candlelight vigil cir- cling the campus. Signatures asking for the release of prisoners were collected and sent to offi- cials in power. The chapter also held a walk-a-thon and a write-a- thon to fund its efforts. Other officers include freshmen Mike Ribas, vice- president; Brian White, secretary; and Kathleen Tripp, treasurer. Amnesty International describes itself as an in- dependent worldwide movement working impar- tially for the release of all prisoners of conscience, fair and prompt trials for political prisoners and an end to torture and execu- tions.” The group has mobi- lized legions of volunteers to literally bombard op- pressive governments and officials with letters both requesting and demand- ing the release of prisoners of conscience — that is, those held for the non-vio- lent expression of their be- liefs — and swift, fair trials for political prisoners. Stopping execution in the name of protecting so- ciety is also a top priority for Amnesty International. It works. The results speak for themselves. Am- nesty International's more than 500,000 members worldwide have dealt with about 28,000 human rights cases, most of them successfully. Julio de Pena Valdez, a Dominican Republic trade union leader was held in an underground cell. In one Amnesty publication, he said, When the first 200 letters came, the guards gave me back my clothes. Then the next 200 came and the prison direc- tor came to see me. When the next pile of letters ar- rived, the director got in touch with his superior. The letters kept coming and coming, 3,000 of them. The president called the prison and told them to let me go.” As commemoration of its 25th anniversary in 1986, Amnesty pointed out 123 nations judged to be insufficient guarantors of human rights.” This list included both East and West, both the Soviet Union and the United States, which, as Amnesty notes, now holds over 1,450 prisoners on death row. Amnesty International is well known abroad, as is evidenced by the fact that it was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1977, but has not enjoyed the same following here in the United States. To combat this problem and to raise money for Am- nesty, rock stars Sting and U2 headlined a six-stop concert tour across the United States during the summer of 1986. The Conspiracy of Hope” car- avan for human rights, also with Bryan Adams, Pe- ter Gabriel, Lou Reed, Joan Baez and the Neville Bros., toured to raise awareness of Amnesty In- ternational as well as to raise money for it. It may take many thou- sands of letters to dent the pride of some oppressors, but it can be done. Amnesty International continues to build the fires of human rights, hoping to stop torture and execu- tion, to insure quick and fair trials for political pri- soners and to free prison- ers of conscious before they too, like Stephen Biko, become martyrs. ------ Kirt Manuel ------ SEATED AMD KEADY Amnesty TUCKER OT HOPE Students International members keep up from Amnesty International gath- with club happenings and pro- er together at a candle lighting for vide input to their role of demand- world peace and human rights, ing the release of prisoners.

CENTER STAGE Nor only singers and dancers, rhe Franklin Srreer singers ore more rhan enrerrainers They are the Franklin Street Singers and they represent some of NMSU'S finest musicians and vo- calists. The 23-member troupe was founded in 1978 by Al Smka, the group's choreographer and general manager. The group has been growing and changing ever since. The Franklin Street Singers originally began as a recruiting organization for the University ' re- members Srnka. We are still recruiting but we do a great deal more entertain- ing. We do at least 20 shows a year and Franklin Street has a lot to offer the performers as well as the audience.” Senior Doug Teel has been a member for three years. He served as the group's music director this year and was also a singer and musician. I introduced the music to everyone and was in charge of making sure it was the right music,” Teel said. It had to be exciting to the audience.” “Franklin Street has grown and improved a lot. If you're interested in this type of performance it's re- ally the best we could of- fer, Teel said. Laurie Davis became in- terested in the Franklin Street Singers as a senior transfer student. Davis not- ed that the organization provided an excellent way to meet people and to get involved. I'm not a music major, but music is something that I have always en- joyed, Davis said. “For me, it provided an outlet. 1 looked forward to every practice. I've been very happy with it. If it didn't make me happy, I don't think I could have done it.” “I have been affected positively by Franklin Street,” senior Karen Ed- wards said. Through the group I have met special people not just interested in performing, but in mak- ing people happy. We aren't just in it for prestige, but we do it to make peo- ple feel good.” “The dancing and move- ment makes the group dif- ferent. You have to have coordination and be able to keep a beat. This made us closer because we needed to move together and create a blend. We were constantly watching and listening to each oth- er. Devotion was neces- sary.” Senior Scott Locke par- ticipated in Franklin Street for three years. Locke said the group is different from three years ago. “It's taken on a new style that is difficult to de- scribe,” Locke said. I feel a routine has been broken and sparks have been added. We've gotten a new shine.” Locke went on to stress the importance of audi- tions. Auditions are held each year early in the fall semester and it's great to have a big turnout. The University has a great deal of talent to choose from and Franklin Street is the perfect place to display musical abilities,” Locke said. We are always trying new things and we really don't set any limits on our performances. Franklin Street is a very special group. If you enjoy singing, dancing and even a little acting — there's no group at MMSU quite like it,” he said. ----- Carol Kloeppel ----- SINGING IN STYLE Members of the Franklin Street singers dress casually for rehearsals.

The action of the opera ILL-FATED LOVE Performers odd American humor ro 100 year-old Japanese operetta began as The Mikado of Japan's son, Manki-Poo, played by senior Rich Ko- sowski, has fled his fath- er's court to escape mar- riage with an older lady named Katisha, played by junior Karen Dabney. As- suming the disguise of a musician, he fell in love with a fair maiden, Yum- Yum, played by senior Jody Kessel. But, the two were forbidden to marry by Yum-Yum's guardian Ko- Ko, portrayed by senior Shawn Cassidy. Me wished to marry Yum-Yum him- self. Ko-Ko, however, was condemned to death for flirting — a terrible deed in Japan at that time. Act I and Act II of the opera re- solved all this action, as Manki-Poo discovered himself as the son of the Mikado and gained Yum- Yum as his bride. Jim Severns, professor of language and literature, served as director of the show, which ran for three nights in Baldwin Hall Au- ditorium. Severns noted that there were some im- portant differences be- tween directing a musical and directing a production that is strictly theater. You must cooperate with the music depart- ment, Severns said. You must give and take and ac- commodate yourself to other's needs. Generally I feel that we were success- ful in doing this; I feel that the show was a success. Dale A. Jorgenson, head of the Division of Fine Arts, provided the musical di- rection and conducted the orchestra. “There is always a cer- tain amount of tension be- tween the actors and the musicians in a musical production. I feel, howev- er, that in putting together The Mikado' we overcame many of these problems. There was a very coopera- tive spirit, Jorgenson said.

In The Mikado' I feel the orchestra was more in- volved in it as a show. It was a type of family affair, he said. PiMSU also put its own brand on the production by modernizing parts of the script and making it more up-to-date. Colorful sets also helped spice up the differ- ent twist MMSU put upon the opera. Instead of using traditional props for The Mikado, MMSU's version involved a modem and lively set. Props such as suspended signs bearing such popular logos as Sony, Honda and Mitsub- ishi were used to symbol- ize the contemporary set- ting depicted in this partic- ular version of the opera. “I feel the changes we made were beneficial to the production, Cassidy said. Things like making the Mikado ride out on a motorbike or having a seg- ment where a rock band played — they added a lot of understanding and en- joyment for many people. I also feel that we kept the analogy the play was fo- cused on when it was writ- ten, a mix of Eastern and Western culture. Senior Bill Higgins por- trayed the Mikado. I think that the changes made op- era more acceptable, he said. ' I appreciated the hu- mor injected by NMSlTs unique interpretation, sophomore Debra Steiner said. Because of conflicts in scheduling, the cast of The Mikado only had about one month to pre- pare for the show. We had good casting and good chemistry, said Jorgenson. Everything came together. We had a lot of techni- cal additions and consid- ering we were on a very tight work schedule, I feel things went exceptionally well, Higgins said. As the retiring head of the Fine Arts Division, Jor- genson had a special rea- son to feel good about The Mikado. It was a lot of fun and there was a good feeling all around, Jorgenson said. I was very satisfied in this final performance. I hope musical theaterwill contin- ue to be a part of HMSU. It's important to the audience, the actors and the musi- cians.

Hopefully that's never happened in Kirksville, but MALE MISFITS Men wear dresses and give a new meaning to rhe word beauty knowing this town it prob- ably has. On Feb. 27 a chance arose, allowing men to dress as women in the first-ever MisLead Pag- eant. The Activities Room in the Student Union Building played host to a lively, sur- prisingly large crowd of approximatey 300. Twelve contestants were judged on creativity, which consisted of dress, wom- an-like appearance and detail in makeup; poise, which consisted of grace- fulness, turns and walk; and audience appeal. The top female-man for 1987 was freshman Rob Laux. His creativity was ob- viously the key. He repeat- edly turned every question asked by the master of cer- emonies, Jason Haxton, into a comedy routine. I was scared. I think all of us were. As a matter of fact, we were all in the hall- way before it started. about to piss our pants, Laux said. Haxton, a Fine Arts grad- uate assistant, was also brilliantly witty. He con- trolled the pageant in a comical manner which kept the audience and the contestants guessing what would happen next. I really wasn't going to prepare because not much was expected. It was a First- time event and if it didn't go over well, then nothing was really lost. When it started and the crowd started filing in, it was evi- dent it would turn out bet- ter than expected, Hax- ton said. Many of the people in the crowd kept asking, Who would think of such a bi- zarre event? The idea for the pageant originated when the Resi- dence Life Association urged the halls to come up with weekend events for the students who stayed in town. Senior Brewer Hall Director, Janis Goodman, bounced the idea off a few of her resident advisers. Goodman said after the idea was finalized, she mentioned to each house within the residence halls that they would be expec- ted to sponsor a male. What made the event great was that it was so di- verse in people. Often times Greeks and non- Greeks don't have a chance to mix together in something like this, Goodman said. Domino's Pizza was also a major part of the event's success. The top four run- FECULIAK PAGEANT Mislead- ing contestants display their cre- dentials while waiting for the overall winner.

To many that may seem better than the $50 cash prize awarded to the overall winner. Domino's was very helpful, but you can't spend pizzas and that made the difference be- tween prizes, Goodman said. I didn't think I'd win, I was just looking to win the pizzas, Laux said. The third runner-up, sophomore Pat Weston, was as nearly as witty as Laux in his spontaneous answers. He said he en- tered out of pure fun. Some girls I knew from Ryle Hall asked me to be in it. I figured it would be a blast, so I did it. 1 was really impressed at the turnout. I definitely think it will be an annual event, Weston said. There were four judges for this contest of role re- versal. They were senior Mike Odneal, junior Dawn Porter, Lou Ann Gilchrist, assistant professor of counseling and Diane Hess, division of business secretary. The other contestants were, first runner-up junior Tim Fine, second runner- up senior Greg Dailey, fourth runner-up freshman Les Nunn, freshman Grant Becker, junior Hollis Clark, senior Jerry Schneider, ju- nior Gary Jones, freshman Buddy Archie and sopho- more Jim Dvorak. Student Life MisLead Tor many students the question of where to live after their freshman year is a major step to indepen- dence. Some students pre- fer to stay on campus since the residence halls are THE DIG MOVE To live on or off campus . . . that is the question to answer close to most classes and they have the convenience of not having to clean house, pay utilities, gro- cery shop and cook. This leaves more time for study- ing without added respon- sibilities. Sophomores Sandy Duncan and Janice Crim- son have mixed feelings about living in the resi- dence halls after two years. ''We've been best friends for 14 years and ev- eryone said sharing a dorm room would make us hate each other, Crimson said. “We made it last year with an extra person, and after this year we re even closer than before. The two women like the convenience and security of living on campus. You don't have to wor- ry about people breaking in or roaming through the halls at night, Duncan said. This past year was a lot different. All our friends either moved off campus or didn't come back. Most of the girls in the dorms were freshmen, and we just didn't feel a part of the dorm life anymore. The two women said they thought some of the rules in the residence halls were unnecessary. They said they believe that if a person is mature enough to leave home and go to college, they should be able to exercise some of the responsibility without so many regulations. What is life like off cam- pus? Senior Jeff Hardie, said he loves it. After living in a house with two room- mates he said things worked out great. “We each had our own room, so when we needed to study, we could just close the door, Hardie said. I didn't like the dorms because there was always noise. If my room- mate didn't have the TV on or the popcorn popper screaming in my ear, there were always a bunch of morons chasing each oth- er up and down the hall. Hardie said he likes be- ing responsible for his own house and doesn't have to worry about someone tell- ing him what to do. For sophomore Lisa Hale, living off campus was the best decision she ever made. Hale lived in a house close to campus with two other women and their two dogs. I believe college should be a complete learning experience. Liv- ing in your own house is a great way to leam to sur- vive on your own for the first time, Hale said. Hale said she didn't stay in touch with her old friends because they lived farther away. She said she was able to stay in touch with closer friends and make new ones too. I'm a Delta Chi little sis and both of my room- mates are TKE little sisses. I didn't really know any TKEs before we lived to- gether, and now' I've made a lot of new friends, Hale said. Junior Russell Knapp liv- ed on campus for two years before he made the off-campus jump. When you live off cam- pus you have to cook your own meals, pay all the vari- ous bills and clean up a lit- tle more. By living on campus you only have to pay a few installments and every- thing is there for you. Both have their own advan- tages, but I'll take the ones' that go with living off campus, Knapp said. I think living on cam- pus offers a big conven- ience as far as not having to cook meals or go shop- ping, junior Kathy Golden said. “I just think it's eas- ier to have all my meals prepared for me. Plus, I'm too lazy to look for off-cam- pus housing. I like being on campus because of the conven- ience, junior Candy Hen- sley said. If I need to go to the library or different places for meetings, I am right here. It's nice to be on campus because if you need any help with classes or just have a problem, you have a lot of people to talk to, sophomore Melissa Pem- berton said. INTERCEPTION Students living both on and off campus enjoy the use of the field behind ISIanton-Na- son Hall. The field is a popular lei- sure spot. I'hoto by Matt Hlotevogcl Student Life On OfT Campus Diana Fisher has found freedom. Freedom from Mom. Freedom from Dad. Freedom to do as she pleases. She found this freedom by moving out of her parents home and into Centennial Hall. ON THEIR OWN Students learn, experience more, and rely on themselves and others Fisher is a freshman from Horwolk, Iowa, and like many freshmen, living on her own for the First time. I like being on my own. It doesn't make any differ- ence how late I come in,” Fisher said. My parents won't be waiting for me like they usually are. I went to a Delta Chi party and 1 was dancing and not worrying about the time. When 1 got back to my dorm, it was 4 a.m. The next night, I went to another Delta Chi party, I ended up getting to the dorm at 5:30 a.m.” Many students get their first taste of independence in college. Ho longer do they have to abide by their parents' rules. Ho longer do they have to worry about coming in late and facing their parents' wrath. But they also find many re- sponsibilities along with the freedom to stay out late and party. Responsi- bilities that vary from do- ing laundry to budgeting time to finding self-disci- pline. When I first got up here, I was basically wanting to get away from my parents and be on my own,” soph- omore Kelly Werner said. Many students won- dered if they would have the self-discipline to study on their own. At home there was always Mom and Dad to remind the student what would happen if their grades slipped. GEEZ.

Up at college, I wor- ried that I would just blow it off. Well, I didn't because I'm still here.” Other students found the situation reversed. Sophomore Judy Polly said, Living at home. I'm more apt to do other things than study. When 1 go home for a weekend, I never crack a book. Up at school, the atmosphere is different. Up at school. I'm always studying.” Because the homework load can be more taxing than many students were used to from high school, they had to leam to budget their time more effectively. This was a new concept to some students. -------Mike Rolands-------- Student Life 47 On Off Campus It's 7 p.m. on a Friday night.

COURTS OF LOVE Hearts, roses don't score in love; women start serving on their side of the net Students at MMSU who date go all kinds of places, do many different things on their dates, and date at many different times, both weekends and weekdays. Dating is defined in Webster's Dictionary,” as an appointment to meet socially. A date serves as an opportunity to get to know someone you think you may be interested in. I date just to get to know someone and then see what happens from there,” junior Doug Kerr explained. Guys now seem to have lost the initiative when it comes to asking out girls. Girls need to let them know that they are inter- ested, even if it means we have to be the first to ask them out,” junior Denise Kempker said. Dating gives you a chance to have outside fun with a person you like,” freshman Melanie Coving- ton said. Sometimes you can Find out a lot of things about a person with no strings attached.” Dating provides the op- portunity to talk. For ex- ample, a dinner date pro- vides a nice and public atmosphere where it is easier to get better ac- quainted. On a dinner date, you can talk in a nice atmo- sphere rather than at home with the television,” Covington said. In a fairly small-sized town like Kirksville, it isn't always easy to find a place to go on a date. I don't think there's anywhere interesting to go in Kirksville on a date,” sophomore Felishia hunt- er said. We don't have a variety of things to choose from,” sophomore Kathleen Johnson said. Activities and places to go are limit- ed.” Regardless of the limita- tions of being in a small ru- ral town, MMSU students always seem to find some- thing fun to do and some- where interesting to go on dates. Movies are popular dat- ing attractions. The lake adds nice atmosphere to a date and many students take advantage of that at- mosphere. There are many places to go for a dinner date. These places range from more formal surround- ings, such as Minn's Cui- sine, to casual atmo- spheres like Golden Cor- ral, to very informal sur- roundings like those found at fast food restaurants like McDonald's. And of course, the bar scene is an ever-enduring great place to take a date; or to meet one. The Oz is a great bar to go to if you like to dance, or for a more casual atmosphere. Two Tail's Too is a good spot. Some students leave the city and sometimes the state to find something in- teresting to do. Junior Robert Snider traveled to Iowa on a date a few times. Students may have to be a little more creative in Kirksville to have an enjoy- able time on a date. That creativity is obviously alive and well with the students at MMSU, because dating is certainly not a thing of the past here. There is a lot to do in Kirksville,” junior Dave Purdy said. You just have to look for it.” I like to take her out to dinner and to a movie, and if she is old enough, go have a drink or two at Two Tails. If they like to dance I take them to the Oz,” sophomore Jim Shearer said.

It's so crazy, you'd think it was a Boston con- cert, one Student Activi- ties Board member re- marked. But this wasn't a Boston concert. It is a perform- ance by Christian musi- cian David Meece. Sponsored by the Stu- dent Activities Board Oct. 24, the David Meece con- cert was different from the average rock concert, yet it generated a similar enthu- siasm for the 1,000 fans that packed Baldwin Mall Auditorium. As with any pop music concert, the majority of these fans were of high school and college age. But these audience members differed from the usual rollicking concert- goers. One young man re- turned an extra ticket to the box office after the worker accidentally hand- ed him two. At least we don't have to worry about drugs and alcohol, pointed out an- other SAB member, who had stood at the door of previous concerts check- ing for such contraband. This audience definitely reacted during the con- cert. They sang along and clapped and stood up. But the aura was not one of wild, frenzied excitement. Instead, Meece's music united them in pensive re- flection. Mis music and his five al- bums do have a top-40 sound, that attracts to- day's youth. But it's his lyrics that affect the audi- ence so differently. He didn't sing about sex or drugs or purple rain. It's the lyrics that dis- turb me most about secu- lar music, Meece told the audience. I could not get excited with writing songs about fictitious liquids. Instead, he gets excited helping people know that God loves them. “Will you forgive me for all that I've done? he sang, accompanying him- self on a baby grand piano. Your love can change me from what I've become. This concern for reach- ing the lives of others was accentuated after the con- cert when he related the story of a suicidal 14-year- old girl from whom he had received a letter. The girl had written to tell Meece that a song on his 7 al- bum encouraged her and changed her mind about suicide. Meece's audience and message may be different than those of secular groups, but he could pass for a top-40 star based on his looks. While he didn't wear psychedelic makeup, his longish hair was poo- fed up on top. Me sported well-fitting, white para- chute pants, a blue and white T-shirt and an over- sized blazer. Between songs Meece bounced around the stage in his white tennis shoes talking to the people about everything from breakfast cereal to his beginning as a Christian musician. But after the concert Meece was far more unas- suming than the average rock star. Other groups usually disappear back- stage to eat the mountains of food they have request- ed. Cheap Trick, for in- stance, requested 24 baked potatoes, several pizzas, cases of soda and a big cake after their SAB concert last April. GETTING TO THE POINT David Meece. one of the best piano players in the world, gives a dy- namic performance at his Chris- tian concert. Photo by Matt Blotcvogel Student Life 50 David Meece But Meece returned to the auditorium to meet with a group of children who didn't arrive until the end of the show because their bus broke down. He gives them all free posters and signed autographs. Meece isn't big on auto- graph-signing. (“After the first time the thrill is gone ' he said. “You real- ize that it's just signing your name.”) But he does it for his fans — to make them feel good, to spend a little personal time with each of them. After more than an hour signing autographs and chatting, Meece left to eat pizza and then to attend a gathering at the First Bap- tist Church. There he an- swered questions and signed more autographs until 3 a.m. Early the next morning Meece loaded up his car and returned to St. Louis to catch a plane for his next concert destination. Contrary to what most performers expect, there was no crew or manager to take care of the details. But that should not be surprising. Meece may be a pop performer, but he certainly doesn't live like one. ----- Karman Wittry ------ TIED UP Singer David Meece has to sign another autograph. After the concert.

Workers were trying to get the last section down when the rain hit ' Schneider said. They worked until the lightening finally drove them off the roof. Soon after the rain start- Construction on campus goes over like a wet blanket with students Student Life 52 Construction ed, leakage from the roof came into the building. Most of the rain came in the area around fans and pipes where detail work still had to be finished Campus Planner Doug Winnicker said. Some people found that the construction alone was a deterring factor in their classes and in their atti- tudes. It was a pain! There was a lot of people muttering comments under their breath, senior Marsha Barnett said. I thought that it was way too loud in classes, and that it disturbed a lot of the classes, graduate assistant Sandy Gamer said. I have a studio there, but it wasn't particu- larly loud. Studentsand instructors alike were surprised by the amount of rain that did come in hallways and classrooms. “It was kind of senseless for them to be working on the roof now anyway, knowing Kirksville weath- er, junior Maria Atchison said. The floors were satu- rated and it was dripping all over, Kaye Bertels, in- structor of composition, said. I was told that it was leaking pretty bad in the piano studios which didn't improve anyone's mood, Barnett said. After the initial on- slaught of rain had stopped, the building be- gan to smell of mildew, bothering some people. CONSTRUCTION ENDEAVOR Workmen replace the asbestos In Baldwin Mall with foam.

After Laughlin Hall was tom down, the KHEU stu- dio moved to Ophelia Par- rish. However, the station couldn't broadcast during the school year because of unexpected occurrences. Originally scheduled to broadcast on Jan. 30, the KHEU air date had to be moved back. “We thought it was a re- alistic time table, Lori Dunseith, KHEU adviser, commented. “It was possi- ble but we didn't get move- ment until the beginning of February. Because of communica- tion failure with Cablecom, Dunseith didn't receive an exact figure for the FM ca- ble convertor or for repairs PICKING OUT THE HITS Chris Holmes,Jr., charts the KHEU rec- ords that were saved during the big move from Laughlin Hall to Ophelia Parrish.

Long before this figure was set, the administration approved $25,000 to help finance the switch to FM cable. “Financially it was a nice chunk of support, Dun- seith said. “It will get us on the air. With this money, the FM stereo convertor was pur- chased and those tran- smitters which were im- properly installed or no longer working, were fixed. The money left over helped pay for new studio equipment. Since the radio station had previously operated on the AM frequency, much of the equipment was mono broadcasting mode rather than stereo. Dunseith hoped that in the future a complete turnover to stereo equipment could come about. So why not save these expenses and keep the station on AM? “We have to go on FM, Dunseith said. “We thought it was a choice, but we had to stick with it. “The broadcasting sig- nal came through a big panel in Laughlin Hall, Campus Technician Gene Brown explained. “The lines were all tom out with the building. This major transition to FM also gave Dunseith and sophomore Courtney Stewart, station manager, a chance to clean up the station's program act. Jazz, classical, Motown, radio dramas and talk shows: these were just a sample of the new selec- tions played on the air. An- other feature planned to broadcast news from vari- ous countries as they re- ceived it from the wire ser- vices, both in the original language and in English. Covering such issues as psychology, sports and current events, the three talk shows were created to provide listeners with a question-answer format. Sal Costa, instructor of psychology, was to be scheduled to air on Wednesday nights. Creating the new format with an educational point of view, Dunseith believed it fit into the definition of liberal arts. Offering a change from top 40 hits, KHEU could be a successful station. “I hope people will look for- ward to it, Stewart said. “I hope they will say, 'Let's listen to KHEU.' ----Joann Heitman-------- and ---- Helen Turnbull ----- Student Life 54 KNEU READY TO SPIN Kathie hood, sr.. and Chris holmes, Jr., are two of the many student assistants that helped pick KhEU up and put them back on the air.

NMSU senior Christie Dean said it takes a lot of time and hard work as well. Dean was crowned Miss Kirksville 1987 at the 18th Annual Miss Kirksville Pag- eant in Baldwin Auditori- um Jan. 17. Along with the title. Dean received a $500 scholarship, a $500 ward- robe and $250 in gift certifi- cates from local mer- chants. The pageant, which Dean and 10 other women participated in, included interviews, swimsuit, tal- ent and evening gown competitions. Senior Bridget Trainor entered the pageant for the second year. I had scholarship on my mind and I like to perform. I went to improve my perfor- mance from last year and I think I did, Trainor said. It was kind of disappoint- ing that I didn't place this year and last year I did. I think a lot of the Miss Missouri program. It's a good way to complete an education. It is not a beau- ty pageant. That's the idea of the whole program, Dean said. All of the finalists were NMSU students; sopho- more Angie Petre, first run- ner-up and Miss Conge- niality; senior Valerie Wid- mer, second runner-up; sophomore Lori Zoll, third runner-up; and senior Amy Rosine, fourth runner-up. Each finalist received scholarship money rang- ing from $25 to $150. I entered the pageant, because it offers a scholar- ship to further my educa- tion. And it gave me the chance to meet and work with the other contes- tants, Petre said. I think the most impor- tant aspect is to know that everyone's a winner even if you don't walk around with a crown, Petre added. I participated for scho- larships offered. I had a lot of fun and had to schedule my time, but I was worth it,” Widmer said. By no means a newcom- er to pageants. Dean has participated in 10 over the past three years. This was the third Miss Kirksville pageant for her. She en- courages girls to get in- volved with pageants and said winning is not the only thing you get in return for the participation. A friend talked me into participating. I'm glad I had the experience, but for me that was enough and it was a one time thing, Zoll said. I met some special people and became more confident in myself. The most important thing is the scholarship money. They have pretty well paid for my college ed- ucation, Dean said. Dean cited gaining per- sonal growth and commu- nication skills also. As a re- sult of the pageant inter- views, Dean feels she has gained the confidence and skills necessary for a suc- cessful job interview. Pag- eant interviews not only deal with personal ques- tions about the contestant but require input on cur- rent events and political issues. You've got to be up on what's going on in the world and sure of your opi- nions, Dean said. Another important re- quirement of pageant con- testants is talent because 50 percent of the judging is based solely upon it. Clas- sical piano is Dean's tal- ent, which she is still per- fecting, after 14 years. She constantly prepares for the pageants she enters. You really have to learn how to manage your time. It takes a lot out of your so- cial life too. But I have no regrets. It has become an important part of my life. It seems like it just gets into your blood, and you've got to keep going for it, Dean said. Dean, an English educa- tion major, is the daughter of Ron and Carol Dean, of Peculiar, Mo. She has lived in Kirksville for the past three years, including summers. As Miss Kirks- ville, she wants to help out the community in whatev- er way she can. Winning the title of Miss Kirksville also qualifies Dean to vie for the crown of Miss Missouri, which she has already begun prepar- ing for. I definitely want to make the top 10 in the Miss Missouri pageant this sum- mer, she said. ------ Barb Dietrich ----- MERE SHE IS Miss Kirksvllle, Christie Dean, sr.. takes her tradi- tional walk dowi the runway.

According to Olin Swede” Johnson, direc- tor of Safety and Security, SAFETY FIRST Campus police provide a safe haven for students to live in and more the department is respon- sible for many things. Our main purpose, ob- viously, is to provide a safe and secure environment for everyone on campus, and to achieve that, we do what is needed,” Johnson said. I see Safety and Securi- ty quite a bit around cam- pus,” sophomore Lisa Mi- nea rt said. I never see Safety and Security around,” junior Todd Winter said. But I feel protected.” I never see Safety and Security more than once or twice a month and when I do, it's to unlock a door,” freshman Erik Mor- gan said. I think they need more people around, especially at night,” freshman Kelli Hoopingarner said. The department ac- counts for the security of buildings on campus, in- cluding the residence halls. Safety and Security makes their rounds at night to turn off lights and lock up buildings for re- duction of theft and van- dalism. Safety and Security pro- vides free bicycle registra- tion for HMSU students. The purpose for this is if a bike is stolen, the depart- ment has its serial number and its description to make locating the bike easier. Another service of Safety and Security is administer- ing car registrations to ev- eryone with a car on cam- pus. There are three color types: blue for commuters, green for those students living on campus and red for faculty and staff. The department does this to ensure fair parking regula- tions. Everyone would like to park right next to the door they have to go in, but in order to keep it fair we have to regulate strict parking,” Johnson said. Safety and Security also helps to provide a safe en- vironment by aiding the Kirksville Police Depart- ment. When vandalism or theft occurs on campus. Safety and Security is noti- fied to investigate the crime and turn any possi- ble suspects into the po- lice. In the fall there were problems with vandalism in the residence halls. The washing machines and driers in Centennial Hall were superglued in a way that prevented tokens from being inserted. This caused the laundry room to be closed for almost a week, putting Centennial Hall residents at an incon- venience. The Safety and Security department was called, they found sus- pects and turned them into the Kirksville Police De- partment. Safety and Security also assists the K.P.D. with city functions, such as par- ades, by directing traffic. Safety and Security be- came an independent de- partmental HMSU in 1970. Prior to that year, it was classified as a part of the maintenance department. It consists of three full- time employees, two night watchmen and five honor guards. Honor guards are HMSU students who work part- time. They receive a salary and carry the same re- sponsibilities as the full- time employees. There are no physical or academic requirements to become an honor guard. Being an honor guard gives students responsibil- ity and experience. It is a terrific way to earn some money while going through school,” Johnson said. ----Catherine Stortz ----- MY BODYGUARD Von Abbott. of Safety and Security is one of the many officers assigned to pro- tect Jcanc Kirkpatrick, as well as the other prominent guests.

From the tearing down of Laugh- lin Hall to digging in the Quad to the scaffolding on DANGER ZONE Workers remove asbestos first discovered in buildings on campus four years ago Baldwin Hall, there seems to be constant change tak- ing place. One change that oc- curred this past summer that may not have been no- ticed was the removal of asbestos from several buildings on campus. Physical Plant Director E. Gene Schneider said that asbestos is a natural occurring fibrous material. He said you can barely see asbestos because it's mea- sured in microns, but it looks similar to white cot- ton candy. Since asbestos has been known to be harmful for such a long time, I'm surprised it took the Uni- versity so long to take ac- tion and finally remove it, junior Gaye Lei Shores said. I don't know what the chemicals are that make up asbestos. I just know that it can be bad, fresh- man Tina Carter said. Schneider said that as- bestos is not a dangerous material, but it has the po- tential to become danger- ous if it is disturbed and BOARD STirr Construction workers repair the roof on Bal- dwin Mall.

If asbestos is inhaled into the lungs it will not grow because asbestos is inert, but the natural par- ticles in the body will cover up the inhaled asbestos dust. When the dust is cov- ered it creates a tumor which can cause either as- bestosis or cancer. Asbestos was discov- ered in the 1930s and was found to be a resistor against heat. It could with- stand high temperatures and was excellent at insu- lating pipes and houses. It was also found to be useful in sound proofing audio visual rooms. It usually takes 15 to 20 years before asbestos damage is detected. In the early 1970s, the govern- ment said that asbestos was a hazard and it either had to be contained, sealed or removed. 1 have been here for four years. It's nice to know now that they found it after four years, senior Kelvin Kllndworth said. Asbestos was not actual- ly found this year. It was four years ago when the University did its first in- house survey to determine how much asbestos there was and just how danger- ous it could be. That survey lead to the first phase of the asbestos removal in the basement of Blanton-Nason Hall. They had the pipe insula- tion there removed and re- placed with fiberglass. Two years later, an ex- tensive number survey was used to determine which buildings were to be worked on first. I can't believe the Uni- versity was so slow in re- moving it, when they've been removing it from the high schools since at least five years ago, junior Teri Looney. Looney, a residence as- sistant in Ryle Hall, said they removed some from there this year and had several areas marked off limits. The formula that the contracting company used was based on a scale of 0 to 173, with the higher numbers representing in- creasing danger. “We felt fortunate in that we did not have any situa- tions that we felt were extremely dangerous, Schneider said. The highest number that the University received was 66 because of the haz- ardous ceilings in both Baldwin Hall and the Per- shing building. Both of these ceilings, in addition to some pipe in- sulation from several of the residence halls, had the asbestos removed over this previous sum- mer. The contract removal for this summer was esti- mated to cost in the area of $400,000. Schneider said the Uni- versity will continue to re- move the asbestos as long as the funds are available. He said the entire removal of asbestos will be com- pleted in about two to three years. Freshman Martin Yoa- kum commented about how the students are reac- ting to the asbestos re- moval project. He said, ”We are doing as-best-as we can. ----- Jan Capaccioli ----- FOND FAREWELL The graft!- tied remains of the Index office in Laughlin hall stood exposed to the elements, after the roof of the building ivas removed.

Suddenly, a voice cried out loudly from the audi- ence. CHICAGO'S BEST Second City comedians return with o show of skits and improvisation “This is crap!! Why don’t you do a skit about some- thing important like nu- clear arms or world peace?” The audience erupted into nervous laughter. Was this guy for real? The ques- tion was answered as the man, dressed in a trench coat, ran on stage with a machine gun and was joi- ned on stage by a number of other cast members all making absurd demands. Then the cast of the Sec- ond City Touring Company introduced themselves to the Oct. 4 Homecoming crowd. For the second year, the Student Activities Board sponsored the Chicago- based comedy troupe. “We had brought them here and the event was very successful so natural- ly, we wanted to bring them back so more people could enjoy their come- dy,” senior Mike Odneal, SAB president said. “Last year we had under 1,000 people and this year, we MOW DO YOU PLEAD? The Su- preme Court takes on a new twist in one of the skits with the chief Justice singing We Lean to the Right.

Using only chairs as props, the cast took the audience from the Vietnam Memori- al in Washington D.C. to a Catholic school to the in- side of a woman's ovary. Another skit portrayed men watching football in their underwear. Each skit was comical, but many also contained a serious concept about living and dealing with simple day-to- day experiences. My favorite thing was the skit about underwear, underwear, underwear' be- cause it was so funny! It kind of shocked me when they came running out in their underwear. It'd be kind of neat if we all just wore our under- wear for a day. It was origi- nal for sure,” senior Kox- anne Malone said. The show was preceded with a performance by the Franklin Street Singers. Franklin Street is a combi- nation jazz show choir. “Franklin Street was great. I heard they had only practiced for 20 hours all together before the show — it sounded like they had practiced much more. Their show was very well organized and I loved their songs. I just loved the whole evening!” Malone said. Second City's perform- ance was the final event of Homecoming Week. The performance was an excit- ing way to end the festive week. ---- Callen Fairchild --- STUDENTS ANTHEM Members of the Second City troupe be- come the Dullard family to sing a rousing rendition of We Mate Liv- er.

Photo by Matt Blotevogel Student Life 63 Second City Lyceum Series - October Jeane Kirkpatrick An exciting world of inter- national relations — includ- ing issues such as the nu- clear arms race and terror- ism — was brought to life for students and Kirksville resi- dents on Oct. 28. Jeane Kirkpatrick, former U.S. ambassador to the United nations, opened the 1986 Lyceum Series with a lecture titled Remarks by the Honorable Jeane J. Kirk- patrick. Kirkpatrick told the crowd at Pershing Arena she chose this title to allow her to speak about a variety of to- pics of interest to everyone. ”1 like to talk about events that are somewhat in the news, Kirkpatrick said. Kirkpatrick's first topic was the recent Reagan-Gor- bachev summit in Reykajav- ik, Iceland. Kirkpatrick said the sum- mit basically left both coun- tries at the same point they were at before the summit, referring to the summit as the hightest stake poker game in the world. As we reflect on it, we can see that it wasn't really a poker game at all because the pot was left on the ta- ble, Kirkpatrick said. Defending the Strategic Defense Initiative proposal, Kirkpatrick reminded the au- dience that most experts es- timate the SDI will be capa- ble of shielding 85 percent of the incoming missiles. We can have 85 percent or zero percent. The choice is obvious to me, Kirkpat- rick said. Kirkpatrick advocated a “get tough policy to deal with the problem of terror- ism. We must make terrorists understand that targeting Americans is not a cost-free demonstration, Kirkpatrick said. Kirkpatrick named the pre- vention of the establishment of an oppressive dictator- ship and prevention of So- viet bases in Nicaragua as the two motives the U.S. has in aiding the Contra rebels in Nicaragua. Summing up her one-hour speech, Kirkpatrick said the U.S. should recognize its lim- itations and that the kind of strong, collective action hoped for from other coun- tries will not happen. We (the U.S.) should low- er our sights a little and wor- ry about protecting our own, Kirkpatrick said. If we remain true to our ideals and the pathways made by Truman, America will be as good for the next 40 years as it has been for the last 40,” Kirkpatrick said. A variety of questions were then fielded from the audi- ence, covering everything from Kirkpatrick's appear- ance in the Bloom County comic strip to Reagan's per- sonal side, to more serious issues such as U.S. aid to the Contra rebels in Nicaragua. Senior Carlos Rodriguez said the speech was informa- tive although he didn't agree with everything Kirkpatrick said. I disagreed with her thinking that the U.S. is goodie-goodie and has done nothing wrong. Especially when she said the U.S. has never made any war-like ag- gression, Rodriguez said. Several students felt Kirk- patrick was impolite to those whose opinions differed from her own. “I was appalled as to how she personally attacked some of those who asked questions instead of attack- ing their viewpoints, Rodri- guez said. She was rude to some of the questioners. If you had a different definition of some- thing, she answered you abruptly, sophomore Ange- la Long said. -----Callen Fairchild ------ EXPERIENCED SPEAKER Jeane Kirkpatrick's visit was sponsored by the Kirksville College of Osteopath- ic Medicine and the Kirksville Re- gional Arts Council. Photo by Val Mocppner Lyceum Kirkpatrick NMSU played host to Vin- cent Price in September. This visit marked the eighth time the 75-year-old film leg- end has come to MMSU. Price's visits to Kirksville be- gan in 1960 when he was part of the first Lyceum Se- ries along with Eleanor Roosevelt. Although Price only stayed for two days, many faculty members and students got a chance to hear him speak and ask him questions. Price participated in a question and answer open forum as well as a symposium includ- ing film clips on his work in the movie business. Price commented on to- pics which students were cu- rious about. The future of the theater, trends in horror films, the making of the al- bum Thriller,” and his fa- vorite movies were subjects covered at the open forum. The veteran actor is con- stantly challenged to be cur- _ rent with young people and purposely does things older people do not normally do, such as the Thriller” album and a Disney movie he re- cently finished. I try to find purposeful ways to keep kids' attention,” Price said. I enjoy his work,” senior Heath Paulson said. I like his old stuff better because there is not so much blood and guts and more mystery and suspense.” Price keeps a busy sched- ule by choice, and claims he has never been busier. After leaving Kirksville, he was on his way to Maine to finish work on a film with Bette Da- vis and Lillian Qish. For an old guy that has done tons of stuff I think it is terrific that he takes time out to visit a podunk school like this,” Paulson said. Acting is a natural pastime for Price. Things are easier if you like what you're doing. And 1 love what I'm doing,” Price said. He (Price) likes to look at things differently than most Vincent Price people,” sophomore Clau- dia Seaton explained. He takes ordinary circum- stances and makes a drama out of it.” As Price told students how important art has been in his life, his eyes seemed to light up with enthusiasm. He praised NMSU as being one of the few schools left that is still a liberal arts school, and said he could not have sur- vived in the film business without a liberal arts educa- tion. Art is everything. It is an approach to life. That's why I love this place, it teaches the importance of art ... if you close the door to art, you close the door to life,” Price said. Price not only encouraged the arts with his words, but with his actions as well. Price donated $1,000 toward an art scholarship. He said it was a way to pay the Univer- sity back for all of the gener- osity given to him. Over the years and many visits, a special bond has grown between Price and NMSU. He expressed a genu- ine affection for NMSU when he talked to students. I feel very' much a part of the Uni- versity family,” Price said. Missouri is his home state. It's nice to have a place to go where people re- member you, there is conti- nuity and friendly faces,” President Charles McClain said. As long as Price continues to come to NMSU, crowds of students will continue to line up to see him. Whatever he wants to talk about. I'll listen, junior Marc Jackson said. Freshman Chris Swartz saw Price perform in St. Lou- is, but wanted to see him when the audience was not so large. Here you get to see inter- action between Price and the students. You're able to state your views as w'ell as listen to his views,” Swartz PRICELESS WORDS Or WISDOM fin live St. Louisian Vincent Price speaks about his unique experi- ences while making films for the second consecutive year. Photo by Matt Blotevogel said. This past year Price has served as the University's National Fundraising Chair- man. Although this was somewhat of an honorary ti- tle, Price had a great amount of influence. His consent to let NMSU use his name on letters to alumni helped so- licit donations. It is important to have someone people can relate to. I would never have done it if I were not familiar with the school or had never visit- ed it,” Price said. After seven visits to the campus. Price admits that he has seen changes, espe- cially in student trends and attitudes. On the other hand, he said he feels the curriculum has remained consistent in liberal arts. Price said that as long as the University keeps asking him back, he will continue to come to NMSU. -------Barb Dietrich --------- Lyceum 65es£ Lyceum Series - September Lyceum Series - October State Ballet of Missouri The Lyceum Series brought the State Ballet of Missouri, formerly the Kan- sas City Ballet, to NMSU Nov. 13 for its fourth visit to the University. During the troupe's two- day visit to Kirksville, the troupe conducted a jazz- masterclass, a lecture dem- onstration and concluded the visit with its main per- formance in Baldwin Hall Au- ditorium. Danial Catanache, a mem- ber of the artistic staff of the troupe, conducted jazz exer- cises during the workshop which were open to those with a background in dance. Students from Kirksville senior high school and the Dance Factory, as well as NMSU students, watched and learned from him. About 70 people attended the lecture demonstration that incorporated ballet his- tory with numerous demon- strations of steps and tech- niques by members of the company. The troupe's main per- formance consisted of three works. The first was Napoli, followed by Mother Goose Suite and The River. Many college students at- tended the performance. Some were required to go for a class, others just went to enjoy. I liked the whole thing and found the last part the most interesting, freshman Michelle Santoyo said. There's not a lot of op- portunity to see stuff like this in Kirksville, so when the op- portunity arises I go, senior Heath Paulson said. The ballet was all right, but I've seen better. I was required to attend it for my music appreciation class, said freshman Jean- nie Heins. Since I've never been to a ballet before I didn't really understand some parts, but it was kind of fun to be exposed to something new. Sophomore Holly Macken- der decided to go for other reasons. I went just be- cause I was interested in the ballet and I don't have a chance to go to too many things like this in Kirksville. I was impressed and I think other students should at least try things like this with- out being forced to go by pro- fessors and teachers, she said. The performance was un- der the direction of Todd Bo- lender. Bolender, also a dancer and choreographer, was a member of the New York Ballet for over 15 years. The Kansas City Ballet be- came the State Ballet of Mis- souri on July 1 of this year. The company decided to change its name due to an expanded scope of opera- tions. The troupe plans to build a performing calender in St. Louis so that it will eventually be able to dupli- cate the season it already has in Kansas City. ------ Laura Foxall ------- SWEET MOTHER GOOSE nursery rhymes will never be quite the same, after the troupe performs Mother Goose Suite.

Lyceum 66 State Ballet of Missouri Lyric Opera of Kansas City The Lyric Opera of Kansas City presented Tosca to a full house in Baldwin Hall Audi- torium Oct. 20. Tosca, an opera written by Giacoma Puccini, was brought to Kirksville by the Lyceum Series and The Mis- souri Arts Council. The opera revolves around a jealous lover, Flo- ria Tosca, played by Gail Ha- dani. The opening act re- veals Cesare Anglotti, an es- caped political prisoner, played by Robert Ferrier, rushing into a church for safety. A painter named Mar- io, played by Edwardo Evanko, recognized his friend and offers Anglotti food and clothing. The duo's attempt at hiding Anglotti is tangled by the arrival of Tos- ca, Mario's lover. She mis- takenly believes Mario has been unfaithful to her and leaves the stage in tears. The plot continues to un- fold as Tosca is persuaded to reveal the hiding place of Anglotti to Baron Scarpia. the chief of secret police, played by Brian Steele. Be- cause Tosca reveals Anglot- ti's location, Scarpia prom- ises to spare Mario's life, who he had captured and threatened to execute un- less Tosca talked. The climax of the opera builds as Tosca kills Scarpia, Mario is executed anyway, and Tosca is about to be arrested for Scarpia s mur- der. Devastated, she throws herself off the battlements to her death. Excellent theater!'' Dr. Dale Jorgenson, head of the division of fine arts exclaimed. Visually it was beautiful, and the diction was clear, so even those at their first opera could under- stand. The audience re- ceived it well, which shows it was excellently done. I found some parts very moving, graduate student Paul Resnick said. I felt the actors weren't portraying characters, but characteri- zations of human traits. I had to come for music appreciation class, but I en- joyed it, freshman Kelly Nelson said. It was in- tense. The sets were beautiful, sophomore Sharon Lang- horst said. I think maybe they were designed for a big- ger stage than Baldwin Hall's, but it worked well. Junior Karen VVeidinger said that she thought the op- era was important for all stu- dents. Seeing the opera on stage helps students under- stand better what they read and hear in music and the- ater classes. I'm really glad this type of theater is offered right here on campus, Weidinger said. I didn't think I would like an opera, but I really enjoyed it, freshman Rae Robertson said. The whole opera was very productive and I en- joyed it a lot, freshman El- len Tumbleson said. It was well worth the time it took to go and see it. ------Jean Pfeifer--------- CRIMES or PASSION The pas- sionate Tosca, portrayed by Gail Ha- dani, agonizes over the decision to reveal Anglotti's hiding place while trying to save Mario, her lover. Lyceum 67 Lyric Opera of Kansas City Lyceum Series - October Lyceum Series — February Guthrie Theater of Minneapolis It was one of those plays that couldn't be synopsis- ized. Even Mr. Cliff would have had a hard time writing notes about it. nonetheless, the play Candida, pre- sented Feb. 15 in Baldwin Auditorium as part of the Ly- ceum Series, proved to con- tain such interesting under- tones and intriguing dia- logue, it deserved at least one attempt at some sort of explanatory description. The Guthrie Theater of Minneapolis brought the George Bernard Shaw play to Kirksville as part of their 1986-87 national tour. All as- pects of the production re- flected the Guthrie's top- notch level of professional- ism. So intense was the play that even the company's own colorful program didn't attempt to explain the play with a synopsis. Instead, letters written by Shaw in the late 1800s and early 1900s were printed throughout the pages, giving the puzzled pre-curtain audi- ence only a hint of what the play was to be about before the house lights dimmed. Many theater-goers had no idea at all. But, they were all prepared to listen, learn, and hopefully enjoy the 3-act play. The plot unfolded some- what slowly. The play's events occurred entirely in GRIPPING ENCOUNTER Peter Vogt proves his point to David Pierce in one of the scenes of Candida. The up-and-down plot consisted of a bizarre love triangle. INTENSE READING Helen Carey and Da vid Pierce of the Minneapolis- based Outhrie Theater rehearse a scene from Candida. The per- formance took place In February. Lyceum 68 Candida the drawing room of Rev. James Morell's Manhattan townhouse. The audience eaves- dropped on the conversa- tions of the 6-member cast on what would prove to be a quite untypical day in the early 1900s. Morell, a gallant, well-edu- cated preacher with a bent toward socialism, earnestly awaited the return of his wife, Candida, from an ex- tended trip. When she ar- rived. Morell is surprised to see her accompanied by a young poet named Eugene March banks. Candida, a noble, digni- fied woman, reassured Mor- ell that the nervous, effem- inate Marchbanks was mere- ly an innocent wanderer whose romantically-elo- quent philosphies of life and love interested her. She brought him home to meet Morell and join the house- hold for conversation and dinner. Morell quickly discovered that Marchbanks was infatu- ated with Candida. The young poet challenged Mor- ell for her love and dedica- tion, saying the elder gentle- man did not truly under- stand her womanly wisdom. Marchbanks went on to un- veil the hidden motivations and inner truths of Morell's overly diplomatic character. This, in turn, caused Mor- ell to re-evaluate his chau- vinistic attitudes toward his wife and his life, but not with- out countless comic inci- dents and humorous one- liners between Morell and the play's other characters. For example, Mr. Burgess, Candida's rotund, Irish-busi- nessman father, provided ample comic relief, as did Miss Proserphine Garnett, Morell's prim-and-proper personal secretary. In the end, the underlying theme of the play finally sur- faced. During the last con- frontation between March- banks and Morell, March- banks asked Candida to choose the man most-de- serving of her dignified love. Candida chose Morell over the effeminate Marchbanks, explaining that Morell, even though he seemed to be the stronger and wiser, was actu- ally the weaker of the two.

Mo., is mentioned. However, for the past 22 years the Grammy award winning St. Louis Symphony Orchestra has performed at the University. The symphony was ranked as one of the top two orches- tras in the United States in a 1983 Time magazine article. Despite the large amount of praise for the orchestra, wide-spread acclaim has not meant fewer concerts in the symphony's home state. Conductor Leonard Slat- kin was named music direc- tor and conductor of the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra in 1979. He has been the re- cipient of a number of awards and has included fre- quent European conducting engagements on his agenda. This is definitely the best symphony we can get for the money we have,” William Fitzsimmons, professor of music, said. The total cost of bringing the symphony to Kirksville was approximately $33,500. The symphony was spon- sored by the Lyceum Series and the Jan. 28 performance also received financial assis- tance from Union Electric Company and the Missouri Arts Council, a state agency. Gilbert Kohlenberg, chair- man of the Lyceum Commit- tee, said the symphony has always been a popular at- traction because it is such a high quality organization. More than 1400 tickets were sold or given out for the concert and about 30 people stood in the halls or the bal- cony after Baldwin filled to was very exquisite,” said capacity. graduate student David Tin- It's education but it's gley.

Connor was hon- ored for regaining America's Cup. Khoto Courtesy of DPI Separation nation; few rule many Black protesters in South Africa fought helplessly with rocks against tear gas, gunfire and sjamboks (short leather whips). The white supremacist South Afri- can government released a state of emergency after almost a year of black protest against apartheid, the country's rigidly enforced structure of racial separation. The violence did not end with the state of emergency. Blacks were still being mugged, shot, killed and smothered every day. nations around the world were concerned about the unsolved issues in this area that had been oc- curring for more than 15 years. Protesting and the selling of stock in South Africa were just minor ac- tions other countries took to show their disapproval with apartheid. Governments like the United States expressed concern but opposed sanctions. Blacks in South Africa have no vot- ing rights, no involvement in govern- ment issues and are basically politi- cal prisoners of government brutali- ty. Segregation underscores the dif- ference in the way South African blacks and whites live. A black ear- ning an average income is often forced by the government to live in a ghetto. Many black women provide their family's main source of income by working as a domestic servant in middle-class white homes. There is approximately 73 percent black to 15 percent white in this au- thoritarian country. Blacks must car- ry passbooks at all times outside of their homelands while whites have few, rarely enforced movement res- trictions. The life expectancy of blacks is 57.5 years as compared to whites' 70 years. This ongoing scandal in South Africa defies the United State s goal of civil rights and equal opportunity for both blacks and whites. -----------Vicki Horn------------ Home, sweet, home for America's Cup Dennis Connor, the weathered skipper who invaded the American news scene in Feburary, did what many believed to be the impossible. He brought America s Cup back home. The name Connor gave to his sleek yacht was fitting — The Stars and Stripes. In four races against the less-experienced Australian team of the Kookaburra III, Connor and his shipmates won the highly-televised yachting race which cost investors from seven different countries an es- timated $200 million. Connor lost the Cup to the sailors of the Australian II in 1983 which un- shackled the 132-year grip the Hew York Yacht Club had held on the $700 silver trophy. Connor, not a typical aristocratic sailor, was seen standing alone after being abandoned by the members of Hew York's prestigious yachting club sobbing over his loss of the Cup. Connor told Time magazine, “In defeat, I found something I never knew in victory.'' He spent the next three years making sure the Ameri- ca's Cup found its way back home. -----------Peggy Smith---------- NASA joins jet set with world trip Just as Charles Lindbergh's solo flight across the Atlantic made histo- ry in 1927, the Voyagers flight around the world made history in 1986. Voyager, the first plane to circum- navigate the earth on one tank of fuel, left Edwards Air Force Base on Dec. 14,1986 and landed nine days later, completing a 26,000 mile jour- ney. The idea for the Voyager began five years ago as a sketch on a cock- tail napkin. Burt Rutan along with the help of co-pilots Dick Rutan and Jeana Yeager designed the craft.

They were squeezed into a cubicle, 2 feet wide and 7 feet long, and suffered through noise that exceeded 300 decibels. The craft had to change routes to avoid storms. The Voyager also was said to be too low on fuel at times. Through these hardships the craft made the 26,000 mile trek on a sin- gle tank of fuel to break the previous record of 12,532 miles set in 1962. -----------Rick Rining-------------- It started with the glares of a tradi- tional heavyweight prize fight. The Goliath, incumbent President Fer- dinand Marcos and the David, challenger Corazon Aquino. Marcos had made a successful de- fense before, ousting Aquino's hus- band Bemigno, who was slain on his return from exile, back in 1983. Marcos' 20-year reign, pitted against Aquino's two-month cru- sade against the evils stirring in the Philippines. Wearing yellow at every political rally, Aquino pledged People Pow- er and refused to be taken lightly. Voting fraud followed in the latter rounds. The United States, a Marcos supporter, refused to get involved. The fraud became so obvious that rioting soon broke out. It was Mar- cos' army against the People Pow- er of Aquino. As the tide shifted, Marcos' supporters, mainly Defense Minister Juan Ponce Enrile and Lt. General Fi- del Ramos, flowed with it and swit- ched comers of the ring joining the Aquino troops. One incident led to another. With- in 24 hours of his self-proclaimed victory and inauguration, Marcos left the Malacanang Palace for the friendlier shores of Hawaii. Aquino's surge ended and started a reign in the Philippines. With the pride of the people re- stored, Aquino was named Woman of the Year by Time magazine. -----------Greg Swanson----------- Birthday bash lights up July sky What can be done with 60 pounds of chopped liver and 14 feet of choc- olate used to commemorate the 100th birthday of our nation's free- dom? The liver and chocolate were used to make two statues of Miss Liberty. Besides celebrating 100 years of existence, the statue received more than $66 million in repairs and addi- tional restorations of Ellis Island, where the statue is located. Around the world, the Statue of Liberty's birthday was anticipated with emotions ranging from enthusi- asm to indifference. I think some people may have forgotten the true meaning behind the statue during the celebration, sophomore Teresa Judd said. Senior Karman Wittry, who attend- ed the Hew York celebration, said most people there truly felt good about the celebration. She added that some people real- ly got corny the night of the fourth and began singing happy birthday to the Statue. She was really surprised there were no really big problems that occurred while waiting for the statue to be lit. ------------Vicki Horn-------------- Newsbrief International Today was the place — NMSU in the USA A USA Today article featuring riMSU and the value-added assess- ment program was published Feb. 2. The article looked at the origin and development of value added. It included faculty and student reac- tions and explained how the test scores were used to advise students of their strengths and weaknesses. Although MMSU was the primary fo- cus, other colleges were also includ- ed. These major universities were the pioneering assessment models and were the pathbreakers.

The worth of this pro- gram was controversial there, al- though it has had legislative sup- port. Their research-based series will show how assessment has changed NMSU. The University gave the reporters information about the concept of value added and data about stu- dents test scores. Then, the repor- ters interviewed administrators, fac- ulty members and students to get their reactions to value added.

Photo by Val Mocppncr Madman Makes Wright Wrong The small, quiet town of Wright City, Mo., some 50 miles west of St. Louis will always be scarred and reminded of a phantom madman who threatened to show up any- where at anytime. Michael Wayne Jackson, 41, of In- dianapolis, Ind., terrorized his hometown along with several others just west of St. Louis. In April, 1966, Jackson was re- leased on probation from the United States Medical Center for Federal prisoners in Springfield, Mo., after serving time on a federal weapons conviction. Twenty years later in Indianapolis, Jackson killed a federal probation officer and a market attendant on Sept. 22, 1986. After abducting several people in Indiana, he continued his streak in Missouri. St. Charles County Police suspec- ted Jackson of shooting a man in the head before the man ran his car off interstate 1-70 and hit a utility pole. Criss-crossing his way through Wright City, and neighboring eastern towns, Jackson abducted and in- jured several people, stealing their cars and personal possessions. The Missouri Highway Patrol troo- pers, FBI agents, local police officers and sheriff s deputies after a long, drawn out search finally pin pointed Jackson to the Wright City area. After an 11-day search, Oct. 2, Jackson was located in a bam ap- proximately two miles south of Wright City. Jackson had shot himself in the head. Police found his body about five hours later. Previously he had vowed that he would never be taken alive. -----------Vicki Horn-------------- Hewsbricf 72 State Fraudulant use not licensed The Missouri Department of Reve- nue reported January that it will be- gin mailing tamper-proof' driver's licenses to people who renew or re- ceive original licenses.

Post is sole voice for St. Louis readers St. Louisjoined the ranks of one- newspaper cities Oct. 29, 1986. The 134-year-old Globe Demo- crat established itself in the St. Louis area with a circulation of 146,432; later it abandoned the stands because of financial prob- lems. Under several owners, the finan- cially troubled daily made three at- tempts at survival. It eventually went down taking more than 350 employees with it. The ending occurred when the Missouri Supreme Court refused to hear a suit for the approval of $15 million in industrial revenue bonds. This money was to cover the Globe's operation costs. The Globe would have to be radically different than the Post- Dispatch to survive. If it took a dif- ferent approach to the news or was only a morning paper it would have done better, junior Kevin Fitzpatrick said. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch was the Globe's only other competing daily newspaper, having twice the circulation and more conservative viewpoints. The Dispatch did hire several former Globe journalists and picked up some of its recently obtained syndicated material. ---------- Vicki Horn ---------- Locol senate favor has a muddy flavor The intense campaign for the U.S. Senate seat between former Repub- lican Gov. Christopher Bond and Lt. Gov. Harriet Woods drew national at- tention. The campaign, which headlined the Nov. 4 ballot, was closely watched by the nation because of the campaign tactics used and the possibility of Senate control swing- ing in favor of the Democratic party. Students focused their attention on the mudslinging tactics practiced by both candidates. Personally, I think Bond could portray his campaign in a more tas- teful manner. I think Woods has done a much better job than Bond, as far as name calling and finger pointing is concerned, graduate student George White said. White also said he thinks the pub- lic was happier with Woods' cam- paign because it was more positive. Bond has a very negative cam- paign and I think people are getting tired of negative campaigns because they are so common, White said. ”1 thought they played dirty. Out of the two, I thought Woods was bet- ter. I like her ideas and the way she presented herself, sopomore Judy Polly said. The main negative aspect of the campaign was the mudslinging by both candidates. One of Woods' commercials portrayed a farmer who lost his farm because Bond al- legedly sanctioned its foreclosure. In Bond's commercials, he called Woods' techniques, sleazy and shallow. With national attention on this election, both Bond and Woods made use of prominent people for endorsements and fundraising. Woods drew support from U.S. Sen. Bill Bradley, D-N.J., U.S. Sen. How- ard Mettenbaum, D-Ohio and singer- actress Barbara Streisand. The most prominent supporter for Bond was President Reagan. Obviously, Reagan's support and Bond's platform were enough to clinch the seat, with Bond taking the votes by a large margin. ------------Index staff---------- flewsbricf THE GREAT DOORS Dr. James Paulding, professor of Humanities and Allied Arts, didn't let the power outage disrupt his Arts and Nan class as he teaches outside.

The north section of Kirksville along with Downing and Queen City were experiencing a blackout. Most students in classes were more than happy to return home while others, less fortunate, had in- structors that managed to overcome the problem by holding class either outside or with available natural sunlight. I was on my way to class and no- ticed the halls seemed pretty creepy,” freshman Mike Carpio said. I didn't know what was going on. My teacher, Glenda Clyde, held class anyway since there was enough light in the room.” Junior Karen Allen said ”1 was standing in line at the cashier's win- dow and for once the line got short real quick and I got out quickly. At the book store it was bad because they had problems finding books.” The blackout was caused by a fail- ure at the Union Electric substation, located one-half mile east of the Highway 63 intersection and High- way 11. The substation converts high voltage electricity into lower level electricity by a larger trans- former for smooth distribution. Ncwsbrief Campus Gary Quick, district manager of Union Electric, said they used an al- ternate system to reroute currents from another electric substation. The company never really knew ex- actly what caused the substation to fail. Quick thought the reason could have been a faulty piece of equip- ment, the transformer, or in the transmission line. Most businesses were able to car- ry on as usual. Jerry Baxly, assistant manager of Quik Trip on Franklin Street said, Our cash register was open so we were able to go ahead with business as usual. The only thing that didn't work was the soda fountains so we just sold can soda instead. The Kirksville Fire Department was not handicapped at all. The de- partment has a back-up system for emergency power failures. The lights and phone lines went out for just a second and then our auto generator kicked in,” fireman Bob Foss said. We re prepared for situations like that.” Some students living off campus were affected by the power failure also.

Brad- ley House won the pizzas in a drawing from the 20 groups with all members participating. • Other campus events during the United Way drive included the placement of canisters around in campus buildings to collect donations and a Fun Run was sponsored by Delta Chi so- cial fraternity. Letters were also sent to cam- pus organizations asking for do- nations. f Another event was a competi- tion among sorority pledge clas- ses to cam the most funds for the campaign. --------Callen Fairchild------- FAKING THEM OUT WITH FALSE FLASH Student life encompasses many things outside of the classroom. The desire to relax and get away from the educational demands of college have brought the use of alcohol into focus for many. With the drinking age in Missouri set at 21, underclass- men have to be a little more creative in their attempt to acquire the bever- age of their choice. Attaining fake identification cards is a prominent way for students to get around the legal drinking-age laws. Students have used such methods as simply borrowing a friend s driver's license, applying for an ID from a magazine or even pay- ing large amounts of money for a le- gitimate student ID or driver's li- cense containing false information. Yet local liquor store owners claim they are becoming more strict and are catching those with illegal cards. Ron Jones, owner of The Tabacco Shop, said that they will not accept student IDs for the purchase of alco- hol. Legally, we are required to check and accept only driver's licenses. We do not take student IDs, Jones said. The manager of the Colonial Party Mart admitted that mistakes are fre- quent, even though they are strict. Waitresses at Too Tails Two are re- quired to card drinkers. We've established a reputation, waitress Stacy Jones said. We have to be strict, so we have little problem with underaged people trying to gain access, she said. Sophomore Joann Ruddy plans to have an ID made this year. ”1 don't want an ID just to drink, I just want access to the bars. I like to socialize at them and I can't get in without an ID. I don't have to drinkjust because I'm there, Ruddy said. One student who wished to re- main anonymous said she has used a friend's ID since the age of 16 and just memorized the information on it. Freshman Orinthia Montague said she would like to have a fake ID, but has had some luck without one. I just go to the bar and walk in. If they card me, I leave. If not, I thank them under my breath and then I get a drink. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, Montague said. ----------Kathy Golden -------- WEEK TESTS A WARE HESS Many MMSU students partici- pated in national Alcohol Aware- ness Week, which was Oct. 20- 26. Activities were scheduled dai- ly to enhance students knowl- edge of the effects of alcohol, and to present students with an alternative to alcohol-related ac- tivities. Activities began Monday with drinking on the mall. Partici- pants drank one beer every 10- 20 minutes, and were periodical- ly administered sobriety tests. These tests ranged from a Breathalyzer exam to walking a straight line, alphabet quizzes and counting tests. Later that evening, Ryle Mali's main lounge was the sight of a non-alcoholic happy hour. Tuesday night many students took advantage of the opportu- nity to spend an evening at The Oz. Mon-alcohol beverages were served and music kept everyone dancing. I think they should have The Oz open one or two nights a week for everyone, said sopho- more Julie Bextermiller.

The United States had been making secret arms sales to Iran, the same nation that kept Am- ericans hostage for 444 days in 1979. After publicly denying approving the sales to Iran, President Reagan released a statement claiming that a third party was involved with the secret project. With the statement incoming infor- mation about dealings being uncov- ered, Reagan's public image hit bot- tom. The secret batterings were sus- pected to have been an arms-hos- tage release deal. The United States made the arms deal in efforts to as- sure the release of American hos- tages held by Lebaneese terrorists. Iran persuaded the terrorists to re- lease three hostages after the deal was made. The arms sales were not successful in securing the release of all hostages held in lebanon. Bits of information leaded to the American public and caused further anger. The profits from the sale may have been used to fund pro-contra congressional candidates and to pay for their political advertisements. As a result of the scandal, Lt. Col. Oliver Wendell north, Robert Bud McFarlane and Donald T. Regan re- signed from the White House staff. -------------Amy Owca--------------- Soviet-American talks result in icy stand-off Despite President Reagan's plea not to blame either side in the Iclan- dic Summit, it seemed apparent that October's talks would indefinitely postpone world arms control. Reagan refused to concede to So- viety General Secretary Gorbachev's proposal to terminate the U.S. Stra- tegic Defense Initiative. Many criti- cized the president in this agree- ment for damaging a chance which would have reduced strategic nu- clear weapons by 50 percent. Reykjavik has brought home to everyone that the major obstacle to arms control is the president s vi- sion of a strategic defense, Spur- geon Keeny, executive director of the Arms Control Association, said. At home the Reagan administra- tion campaigned to portray the sum- mit as a success. We are closer than ever before to agreements that could lead to a safer world without nuclear weapons, Reagan said. Giorgi Fediyashin, editor of Soviet Life, did not agree. The results of Reykjavik undermined the hopes and aspirations of people around the world, he said. Pressure to come to an agreement on the reduction of nuclear arms was increased when Nicholas Dani- loff, U.S. News and World Report Cor- respondent, was taken hostage by the KGB. The Daniloff affair was seen as the overriding motive for pro- gress on larger American-Soviet issues. -----------Peggy Smith---------- Some information was provided by the Associated Press INew cola puts Jolt back into soda industry Jolt, a new soft drink took a differ- ent approach to advertising.

Photo by Ray Jagger Value added to French vocabulary Early in the morning two men were spotted jogging past the Eiffel Tower. Mo they didn't have flowers in their hands, and it wasn't an Impulse commercial. Who were they then? Why, it was our very own NMSU President, Charles McClain and his sidekick. Dean of In- struction Darrell Krueger, enjoying a little French air. McClain and Krueger were invit- ed to spend a week in Paris to learn more about higher education inter- nationally as well as to share with them facts about our value-added concept. The conference was about assessment and evaluation of high- er education and was organized by the Center for Educational Research and Innovation. NMSU was one of only two universities from the United States invited to attend; the other was the University of Tennessee at Knoxville. In America, approximately 50 percent of high school graduates go on to higher education. In western Europe, 10 to 15 percent will attend a university comparable to ours. There is a lot more selectivity in lower levels of education. This causes them to have less problems of quality control in higher educa- tion then we have in America, McClain said. Participants at the conference shared some of the problems of im- plementing a system that would con- tinually measure standards of the students. They also discussed some of their challenges and discoveries such as the fact that students' opi- nions of their education often tend to parallel their test data revealed. ”Our program, in a sense, is an attempt to make sure that we re all reaching our goals so that our grad- uates with degrees have indeed achieved some level of national competitiveness, McClain said. Reactions from others were ba- sically, Why do we need this type of a program? The Europeans didn't understand the concept since they have not actually been able to see how our system works. They are un- able to see the connection between evaluation and higher education, af- ter having only read about the per- centage of American students who actually continue their education. Other countries have a lot of respect for the American education- al system, because it is so rich in di- versity, McClain explained. McClain also said he learned quite a bit about the culture of Euro- pean higher education and of the people who provide leadership to that education. One thing that both McClain and Krueger observed was that although it was an international conference, nearly 95 percent of the participants spoke English. Krueger said he found it inter- esting that everyone present was provided with a pair of headphones, lie said that interpreters sat in a glass booth and relayed messages through the headphones. McClain said he feels that this is one of the real disadvantages that the United States faces today. We are not as knowledgeable in the oth- er cultures and their languages as the other cultures are in ours and our language, McClain said. When students were asked what they thought of NMSU being chosen as one of the two universities to rep- resent the United States, most reac- tions were similar. I think it's neat that we were chosen, but I don't even know what value added is myself. Maybe they could spend some time telling us what it is instead of people in other countries, junior Tim Flemming said. It's good that our University is represented and that we re achiev- ing world-wide recognition, senior Tim Breck. I really don't know much about value added except what I've no- ticed on tests. More questions are based on why you chose your an- swer instead ofjust an answer or def- inition. I guess this is supposed to make us better, freshman Jim Overschmidt said. It's good to be recognized in- ternationally because people will know NMSU students are better than those from other universities, freshman Beth Kem said. I wish they would make sure that the people here at NMSU would understand value added first, but it's great we got recognition, senior Bridgett McHone said. McClain and Krueger did not at- tend the conference to persuade others to adopt the value-added concept, but more to share the expe- riences and the knowledge gained by using it. McClain thinks that it is a good idea for everyone to experi- ence travel for education. There is a certain education that can only come about as a result of travel. There is a certain world view that one just cannot capture by reading books or literature. It must be experienced, McClain conclud- ed. -----------Janice Pratt ----------- MAKIPT SMALL TALK. President McClain and Governor Ashcroft discuss value added in American education. Ashcroft cited facts from Degrees with Integrity in his reports.

But this year, NMSU has been the leader instead of the follower — in the area of education. For 12 years, the University has successfully carried the value- added assessment program, and with the help of Gov. John Ashcroft, it has placed northeast among the leaders in education. Ashcroft, as chairman of the national Governors Association Task Force on College Quality, recommended to the Gov- ernors Association that every state should establish a mission for each higher education institution and de- vise a system of assessment similar to nMSU's. The purpose of the task force was to make an intense study on col- lege quality, specifically, to investi- gate possibilities of assessment and accountability in undergraduate ed- ucation. At a hearing in St. Louis in De- cember 1985, President Charles McClain addressed the task force, in- troducing to the governors the suc- cess of the value-added program. Assessment is viewed at north- east as a means to an end — not an end in and of itself. The purposes are improved quality and accountability — improved quality in teaching and in student performance, and ac- countability to the state, to the em- ployer, to the student, and to the parents,” he said. As a result, Ashcroft made the recommendation to the association this past summer, featuring NMSU as the role model for assessment and accountability. Also, because of the university's program of estab- lishing missions,” Missouri be- came the first state in the country to require every college to define and evaluate the mission of that college. Ashcroft felt that the public had a right to know what the taxpayers were getting for their money and that the adoption of a highly-focused mission for each college would prove whether or not their money was well spent. northeast Missouri State Un- iversity's approach to assessment is being adopted by other colleges and universities and is being considered by state legislatures and higher edu- cation coordinating boards,” Ashcroft said. Value added has also attracted interest across the globe. We've had inquiries from West- ern Europe asking us about how they're doing things at northeast Missouri State University and asking assistance in establishing similar as- sessment programs in Europe,” Ashcroft said. The governors were in favor of adopting the value-added program and cited nMSU as the public univer- sity model for innovations in higher education. Sharing their citation was Alverno College of Milwaukee, Wis., for their similar contributions to the private sector. So, the country may have been wearing California Jams” this sum- mer or waiting in long lines to see Mew York's Cats.” But its trends in education have been derived from a somewhat less glorious place in the middle of Missouri: a small farming town called Kirksville. --------- Helen Turnbull ------------ VALUED “TEST IMOMAL President Charles McClain and Gov.

Many students found the library a productive place to study. Photo by Kent Snipes “Post”-ing a new sign of the “Times” for your “Money” Quick! Check your dictionary. Is MMSU listed there yet? Maybe it's next to a picture of the cupola on top of Kirk Memori- al? Ho? Okay, thumb back to the V section. Is value added” listed there yet? Mo? It must be an old dictionary. Instead, try looking in the Read- er's Guide to Periodical Literature. Your chances of finding information about MMSU are much better. In the past two years, HMSU has been written about in six national consumer periodicals — magazines and newspapers that normal, every- day people can buy at the local su- permarket. Plus, HMSU has also been recognized in two journal-like publications and three educational books. Perhaps the most highly promot- ed and remembered national recog- nition came from the May 1986 issue of Money magazine. In the education section of the magazine, writer John Strickney described Ten Public Col- leges with an Ivy Twist.” Strickney outlined the special traits of some innovative state schools. He com- pared their educational quality and costs to traditional Ivy League schools like Harvard and Yale. The section about northeast mainly describes value added in general terms for the readers. Strick- ney says HMSU has attracted na- tional attention from educators na- tionwide for launching a testing pro- gram designed to grade the institu- tion as well as the students.” Apparently, USA Today saw some merit in Strickney's article about HMSU. On May 1, the national news- paper listed HMSU on the front page of the Health and Behavior section. The paper restated Money maga- zine's list of ten quality colleges un- der the headline, Get your money s worth at these public colleges.” The newspaper pointed out the low cost of these schools. Average costs for these 10 public colleges was $5,600, compard to a whopping$ 17,000 for the private counterparts like Har- vard, University of Chicago and Stan- ford. Other national newspapers have also carried news about HMSU in the past few years. These articles were by no means large, full-page descrip- tions of HMSU, but they were small snippets of information that gave HMSU a short glimpse of the na- tional limelight. For example, the March 21, 1986 edition of the Wall Street Journal list- ed HMSU accounting students as scoring in the top 10 nationally on the Certified Public Accountancy exam. HMSU's average score was 29 percentage points above the na- tional average and only 14 percent- age points below the top average score. The Hew York Times and the Washington Post have also included HMSU recently on their printed pages. The Hov. 5,1985 issue of the Hew York Times mentioned HMSU as an example of a college that changed its curriculum due to as- sessment test results. The article went on to describe how HMSU suc- cessfully revamped its mathemat- ics program after standardized tests in 1979 and 1980 showed that stu- dents' performance dropped be- tween their freshman and sopho- more years.” In the Oct. 17, 1985 issue of the Washington Post, writer Barbara Vo- bejda also described HMSU's testing program. In describing value added to the Post's readers, Vobejda said students take standardized tests as entering freshman, at the end of sophomore year and again before they graduate, to indicate what they have learned. Even the fashion magazine Seven- teen included HMSU's name in its April 1986 issue. Ho, the article was not about Kirksville s fashion con- sciousness. In fact, the only thing mentioned about the second was the name. An article titled. Three American Girls described the di- verse lives of some high school sen- iors, explaining their daily routines, personal views and future plans. One of the featured students, Mi- chele Stahl from Princeville, III., said HMSU was one of her college choices. I'll probably go to the Uni- versity of Illinois,” the magazine quotes, but I like northeast Missou- ri State, too.” Granted, recognition like this is small and short, but it is national recognition nonetheless. Appar- ently something at HMSU has sparked the interest of writers and editors of well-known magazines and newspapers across the nation. But it does not stop there. HMSU has also been recognized in national educational journals and books. In the Oct. 2 issue of the Chronicle of Higher Education, writer Scott Jaschik goes in depth about HMSU's testing programs and their effects. This small town in rural northeast Missouri seems like an unlikely place for a major trend in higher ed- ucation to start,” Jaschik wrote. But it attracts a steady stream of educators and political leaders, all coming to study northeast Missouri State University's value-added” as- sessment program.” The article, one of two stories about HMSU that appeared in the Chronicle, outlined specific examples of value added that occur at HMSU. Reactions are also quoted from HMSU administra- tors, state administrators and HMSU students. In the fall of 1986, HMSU was fea- tured as an educational example in the national Governors' Task Force Report on College Quality. The task force, chaired by Missouri governor John Ashcroft, cited HMSU as a public innovator” whose model should be followed by the nation's other public colleges. Although as- sessment is an area in which only a few institutions of higher education have had long experience,” the re- port states, it is an area in which colleges and universities should in- Mini Mag 85 national Attention (continued) vest significant time and re- sources.” Prior to the task force report, NMSU's educational example was featured in three books. The first was titled “In Pursuit of Degrees with Integrity.” The paperback was published by the American As- sociation of State Colleges and Universities in 1984, after NMSU received AASCU's prestigious 0. Theodore Mitau Award for Aca- demic Excellence. The book ex- plains exactly how a value-added program could be integrated at other colleges and universities. In 1985, author Peter Ewell in- cluded NMSU in his book, “The Self-Regarding Institution: Infor- mation for Excellence. Again, NMSU was described as an exam- ple of successful self-assessment in higher education. Most recently, in the spring of 1986, NMSU was one of 20 top schools included in the book, “Searching for Academic Excel- lence: 20 Colleges and Universities on the Move and their Leaders.” The authors profile the recipes for suc- cess that made the schools such ed- ucational standouts. NMSU's recipe for success has ap- parently been quite palatable to the nation's writers and editors. And here at NMSU, the national attention has been an unexpected treat to stu- dents, faculty and administrators. What kind of recognition is next for NMSU? Perhaps Mr. Webster and his staff of definition-makers will add two new entries in their next revised and updated dictionary — one listing un- der “N” for NMSU, and another one under “V for value added. ----------- Mike Odneal ----------- Did you Know ... NMSU was the first Missouri Insti- tution to connect with the On-line Cataloging System, which allowed access to books in more than 300 libraries throughout the United States. NMSU Accounting students have achieved an 85 percent passage rate on the CPA exam. The nation- wide average is 15 percent. Northeast offered 140 four-year programs, 21 one and two-year certificate programs and 25 gradu- ate programs. Eifty-five percent of NMSU's stu- dent population were female; for- ty-five percent were male. add insight to Valued program Students NMSU has gained national and international recogni- tion because of its value- added assessment program. Ar- ticles appeared in such periodi- cals as “Money” and “USA To- day”. In each article, the success of value-added has been reported from the administrators side. Here the students were asked how they really felt toward Value-Added: ‘ 7 don't see how it adds value to education.

The group was a mixture of politi- cians, business men, secretaries and students. People were laughing and talking. Yet black books were ly- ing open on the tables, ready for their content to be discussed and de- cided upon. The Board of Governors was about to begin its first meeting of 1987. The Board of Governors is one of the most important bodies of NMSU. It consists of eight board members. The president of the Board is Robert Fenlon from Mexico, Mo. The other board members are William Weber, Myra Baiotto, Inks Franklin, James Conway, Frederick Lauer and Rich- ard Pryor. The eighth member is se- nior Ric Brockmeier, the student rep- resentative and a non-voting mem- ber. The Board makes policies for guiding the University, such as tu- ition costs, improvement policies and admissions policies. The Board's decisions could include equipment purchases, campus re- novations and tuition increases. The Board is a policy-making body, as distinguished from the ad- ministrative body,” University Presi- dent Charles McClain said. The Board doesn't deal with day- to-day grievances, McClain said. The most effective board hires ad- ministrators to take care of the day- GCT TO THE POINT Board of Governors members Hilbum Plshback and Myra Baiotto discuss the University's issues at the January meeting.

McClain, himself, does not try to accuse the Board or try to duck re- sponsibility if something does not go right. I'm responsible for the total wel- fare of the University,” McClain said. I don't carry the burden alone, but I feel responsible. Ric Brockmeier was appointed as student representative in Jan. 1986. He is an official mediator between the body of students and the Board of Governors. I receive information from the students and represent them at the Board of Governor's meetings,” Brockmeier said. This is the third year a student rep- resentative has been on the Board of Governors. House Bill 998 provid- ed for a student to sit at all open meetings. Any full-time student, resi- dent of Missouri, can be a student representative. Students Fill out an appplication and then are interview- ed by a committee of five students. The committee decides on three stu- dents and sends their applications to the Missouri governor. The gover- nor makes the final decision. It is a learning experience, Brockmeier said. It is also a chal- lenge to do the homework, such as to know the agenda before the meet- ing and to leam what the students want.” The Board is required by House Bill Ho. 196 to meet once a year. McClain said the decision of how of- ten to meet depends on the agendas and what issues are coming up. Students perceptions of what the Board does and what the student representative does vary. I don't understand what the Board is there for. They make deci- sions on how much we have to pay for tuition, and what we have to do to get in here, but half the time the students aren't aware of the deci- sions,” junior Crystal Baker said. Ric Brockmeier is on the Board to represent the student body, but isn't given the right to vote, so what good does he do?” I think they need a PR campaign so students are more aware of what the Board does. If there was as much publicity about the Board of Gover- nors as there is about value added, a lot of people would be more aware of it,” senior Steven Lund. The first Board of Governors meet- ing of 1987 ran overtime. The Board quickly wrapped up the final details so two members could catch their plane rides. The room now stood empty and silent; the people were gone and the decisions had been made. ---------- Vivian Franje----------- THE PRESIDENT SPEAKS President Charles J.

He is seen in his office in the Admin- istration Humanities Building, in Pershing Arena, in the cafeterias and residence halls. Me knows many students by name. He supervises all of the student ser- vices on campus and handles stu- dent discipline, as well as many oth- er tasks. But what lies behind the Dean of Students? How does he see himself? Smith came to NMSU in 1975 after teaching political science at several different colleges and universities. He describes himself as optimistic, gregarious, loyal, fun-loving, objec- tive and independent. My greatest strength is probably intelligence,” Smith said. I'm not afraid of anything but heights.” He listed the ability to concentrate extremely well and to remain cool under pressure as other strengths. But sometimes I can be too trust- ing. I don't like to be wrong and I can be really stubborn,” Smith said. He said the best thing about his job is being a part of the changes the University is undergoing. Most people never have the chance to be part of something like this in their entire lifetime. I feel very fortunate to have the chance,” Smith said. The fact that I can literally make a difference in people's lives that is hopefully constructive, is another good thing about my job,” he added. Smith said student discipline problems are the worst part of his role. Unfortunately, many students think that's all I do. Actually, it's only about three percent of my job,” he said. Smith relates to students in vari- ous ways, but he said he always tries to remember at least two things about a person when he meets them: their name and where they are from. A person's most precious pos- session is his name. It's the one thing that can't be taken away from them,” Smith said. It's almost like you owe it to them to try and remem- ber their names.” I think he understands and copes with students fairly well,” freshman Shawn Oberreiter said. We are not just another social security number to him.” I think he does a pretty good job, but sometimes he is close-minded and not very willing to make changes,” sophomore Becky Barker said. Smith enjoys doing things with his family (he has four children), read- ing and thinking about and discuss- ing current events. Smith said in the future he would like to be president of a college or university. A long time ago I decided it never meant a lot to me to be rich. Once you decide that, your life can move in a whole different set of directions. That's essentially what directed me into education in the first place. I've been in higher education since I was 17 without pause — and it's been absolutely fabulous. I hope I can retire in higher education,” Smith said. ---------Callen Fairchild---------- DEAN'S DINNER Smith hikes time out to dine in the Centennial Mall cafeteria.

Hot only did Churchwell make up the course schedules, prepare the academic calendars and assign classrooms, but he also found the time to listen to faculty and student problems. ‘T take care of most of the minor problems, leaving Dean Krueger (dean of instruction) more time to concentrate on the larger problems on campus,” Churchwell said. Internship approval and gradua- tion ceremonies were also up to Churchwell. With all of these and many more responsibilities, one might wonder how he was able to keep things so organized. Some- how, he always managed to get his tasks completed efficiently. With wallpaper made up of month- ly calendars, yearly planners, the ac- ademic calendar and daily remind- ers it was no wonder why Churchwell was able to perform detailed jobs ef- ficiently. When the opportunity arose for Churchwell to take advantage of a little spare time, he enjoyed shoot- ing hand guns. 1 like to go to the shooting range after a hard day and fire a couple of rounds,” he said. ------------Tammy Kopecky----------- KEEPING THE DATE.

Towne and Kohlenberg have had a lot of common memories at NMSU. They began a friendship in 1951 when Towne arrived at the University as a temporary instructor. It was the beginning of a friendship which has lasted throughout the years. Many of the memories the two shared during their careers at NMSU involved the Delta Zeta social sorori- ty. Both began to do things together with the sorority when Towne be- came the adviser of the organization in 1953. Kohlenberg became a Delta Zeta Dad in 1964. They've both been very close friends to all the Delts, freshman Bridget Utsler said. ‘They're dedi- cated, helpful and will be greatly missed.

Kohlenberg said he would contin- ue to teach one social science class for another year after his official re- tirement. But he's also included many other plans in his future, such as travel abroad. The former Dean and the former Division Head were both known for their specific routines and precise schedules. Every day held for each one, a schedule which entailed defi- nite duties and responsibilities. But, also included in their schedules, were special times set aside as short breaks. Towne and Kohlenberg went together to the Student Union Build- ing every day for coffee tea breaks. A few of the things which kept Koh- lenberg busy at NMSU, besides be- ing a division head, were serving as the head of the Lyceum committee since its beginning and being the ad- viser to the interfratemity council until 1967. Kohlenberg, one year away from mandatory retirement, chose to re- tire at the end of the spring semes- ter. I felt I had done all that 1 could for northeast and I needed to move on.” Towne kept extremely busy over- seeing the records of all graduate students on campus. But her job en- tailed much more than simply that. Herjob ranged from serving as chair- person of the Graduate Council to approving graduation bulletins and publications. I've done so many different things since I've been here that I can't say particular ones stand out ahead of others, Towne said. I've probably chaired half of the councils and committees on campus. 1 served as editor of the NEMOscope and I've done a lot of writing, but I just consider it all a part of the job. ------Michelle Blotevogel --------- and --------- Margeret Blouin -------- Mini Mag 93 Kohlenberg Townc Value added, value added, value added. Enough, enough, enough. These words and thoughts often chime togeth- er though the implications rarely make it to the forefront of our minds. Starting out small in Missouri, leaping nation- wide and then stretching overseas, the mission is not new” to us but its rewards may soon be. MMSU and its administrators have made great strides in the advancement of Liberal Arts and in a more defined and sculptured student involve- ment toward this academic initiation. We looked at innovation as hindrance and not help. With the fog still about us, the questions re- mained healthy and the student concerns genu- ine. Two opposite worlds trying to define one com- mon goal — higher, much higher, education. This was not a critical look by students, but a curious investigation on a span in life involved in setting up a future. The academics of this past year are remodeling the views of tomorrow.

The Laughlin Hall cornerstone was opened before the eyes of more than 250 people in Baldwin Hall Au- ditorium as a part of Homecoming Week celebrations. After a brief history of Laughlin Hall by David March, professor emeritus of history, the Laughlin family presented photographs of Harry Laughlin and other family members to President Charles McClain. Robert Fenlon, president of the Board of Governors and senior Bon- nie Heuner, Student Senate Presi- dent then revealed the contents of the cornerstone to the audience. Among the items found were local newspapers, journals, documents, a Bible and a 1905 school bulletin. There was nothing in there that really surprised me,” sophomore Kim Wacker said. ”1 figured there would be things like yearbooks and newspapers.” The cornerstone was actually opened about one week prior to the ceremony. We had to make sure there were contents and that nothing was dam- aged,” Terry Taylor, assistant to the president, said. Some of the items were slightly mildewed but were treated before the ceremony by Special Collections Librarian Odessa Ofstad. “I let the papers air and then pres- Acadcmics Cornerstone 250 pairs of eyes witness the opening of the stone sed them between sheets of acid- free paper,” Ofstad said. After the old contents were re- moved, new items were placed in the box to be rededicated and used as a cornerstone for the new addition to the library. Items included were the invitation to the ceremony, copies of local newspapers including the Index, a copy of House Bill 196, which desig- nated HMSU as the statewide liberal arts university, the alumni newspa- per Hemoscope and the title page of the 1986 Echo. The rest of the Echo was transferred to microfilm and will be placed in the cornerstone at a lat- er time. The moving of the cornerstone from one place to another is symbol- ic to a change that is going on at our university,” Bryce Jones, chairman pro-tem of the Faculty Senate, said. Most upperclassmen attended at least one or two classes in Laughlin, as the big lecture room was used for many library resource and popular general education classes such as world civilizations and human be- havior. Several students commented about their memories of Lauqhlin Hall. Tearing it down was kind of like tearing down a part of the history of the campus. Many people seemed to picture Laughlin as a basic part of campus because almost everybody had class there at one time or anoth- er — complete with leaky ceilings and bugs running across the floor,” senior Fran Walker said. Sophomore Keith Robertson said he didn't think most students really cared that much about Laughlin. Junior Rose Mantia said she was afraid to walk in the building. I was always scared 1 would fall or something would fall on me every time I walked in the building. I'm sure Laughlin meant much more to those teachers and students who have been here longer, so the cere- mony was a nice idea,” Mantia said. Hot attending HMSU that long, sophomore Amy Gregory said she was not really phased by the de- struction of the building. One of my friends asked me to go to the ceremony, but I didn't want to go. To me the building was worth- less. ”1 thought the ceremony was neat because it's something that won't probably happen again for another 80 years or so, Wacker said. -------Callen Fairchild--------- TEP IN THE PAST Student Senate Presi- lent Ronnie neuner. sr„ and Board of Gover- nors President Robert Fenlon examine the Ime capsule's contents. ’hoto by Bryan Hunt TAKE A PEEK Board member Dr. David March, Dr. Bryce Jones, associate professor of business administration, and Myra Baiotto examine the box, which was opened before the ceremony.

The cornerstone of Science Hall was laid And blessed with Masonic dignities. Parasolled ladies in high-buttoned shoes Held the arms of high-collared gentlemen; Old Baldwin’s image shimmered on the lake. Our world and school seemed much younger then. For eighty years Science - now Laughlin - Hall Has stood near the real heart of our school And touched thousands - indeed, all our students - With twinned discipline of dream and rule. Legend insists Laughlin's ivy was brought From Harvard. May its spirit be the ghost - Still reverenced though the walls be gone - haunting Us to cherish work, truth, love - and love the most. In Sunken Garden flowers Old Baldwin lives. Our founder’s statue rises above shores Of a vanished lake. Old Laughlin’s walls Are being picked apart, no magic stored In beams or joists. But Laughlin's passing Serves, teaches still: how fragile and precious Are wisdom and skill; how quicksilver, time. Grant us such use before we turn to dust.

I could go to the Tap Room, you Know it is quarter draws tonight. Mo wait, maybe my 1.09 QPA could use a lit- tle studying help. Geez, how do those Pershing Scholars do it? OK, a quick show of hands — how many of you have had this con- versation with yourself? Too many, right? Well, study habits can be al- tered, revamped or completely ov- erhauled to help meet the needs of a successful” GPA, and those of you that haven't had this conversa- tion aren't reading this story anyway. Last year I simply did not study, and that is definitely not a good study habit. I went out a lot and my grades sure did show it. Then my parents reminded” me that I was in school to learn — to study. I have picked up some better study habits now. I still go out, just not as often, one Centennial Hall resident ex- plained. I think that part of the reason that people don't have good study habits and don't get good grades is because they lack time manage- ment skills, senior Rick Brockett, a Dobson Hall Resident Adviser said. Brockett conducted a program Budgeting time proves to be a class in itself in the hall about improving stu- dent's study habits. He believes that not reading as- signed material and procrastinating are poor study habits and contribute to students receiving poor grades. Among the high grade achiev- ers on campus, each have devel- oped their own methods of studying. I try to do homework right after class if it's possible — while the ma- terial is still fresh in my mind, fresh- man Sheila Duncan, Pershing Scholar winner said. Duncan admits, though, that she does procrastinate sometimes, spending late nights studying before exams. She said she finds writing material down on paper helps her to remember it better than simply read- ing over it. Sophomore Sue Steinhauser, a Pershing Scholar, said one of the things she considers most impor- tant in making sure all of her home- work gets done is to make a list and be organized. I use little bits of time during the day so I don't have to study as much at night, Steinhauser said, and working ahead when I have ex- tra time helps a lot, too.” Steinhauser is involved in many organizations on campus, such as Student Senate, Student Ambassa- dors. and the Mewman Center. She said she enjoys being involved and feels they enhance her education rather than take away from her study time. Well, now you know how some Pershing Scholars get good grades and high GPAs. Maybe Pickier doesn't sound too bad after all. --------- Maura Kolb ------------- STUDYING SOLO John Gansmann. fr.. finds a quiet, isolated spot in Dobson hall's lounge in order to study for his anthropology class.

NMSU has taken that step. The in- creasing demand for video cassette recorders in private homes has led NMSU to produce a recruitment video available to students. The video, entitled, Degrees of Integrity , was electronically com- bined from two previously made vid- eos by Ray Jagger, University pho- tographer, with the help of Techni- sonics, a consulting firm in St. Louis. The idea to promote NMSU on video was first started in 1985 before the VCR craze. It was orginally pro- duced for high school guidance counselors to keep on file at the schools and show to their students. But as Jagger explained, as more homes acquired VCRs, sending the film directly to the student became more effective. The further away from campus, the more popular it became. It was Flick the switch, get a laid-back tour of the campus a way for students to look at the cam- pus without actually visiting. We've taken them right into a calculus class, an English class, a Russian Class ... Jagger said. This year, Jagger sent out approxi- mately 700 videos for high school students and their families to watch as they try to make a decision for the future. In our research, a lot of people haven't heard of us, other than as an advanced junior college.' We wanted to show that we are a full-size liberal arts university,” Jagger said. President Charles McClain, Walter Ryle, professor of history, and Mer- man Wilson, professor of English, were among several faculty mem- bers that spoke in the video. It car- ried the deciding student from differ- ent classes, through a Japanese ex- change program, into sports and ex- tracurricular activities held on campus. A well-rounded education is not limited to classroom activity. It is a part of a total education environ- ment; part of a total educational ex- perience, if you will. It's rich in those social experiences, that enlarge the tastes and talents of all of us, the video said. The video was just another way that NMSU put technology to work for them. ---------- Helen Turnbull -------- SHIP 'EM OUT Rebccka Albertson, so., helps the riMSU recruiting cause by labeling a video sent out to prospective high school students. Photo by Matt Blotevogel Academics 100 Video TRANSFER Due to in-depth admission re- quirements and difficulties encoun- tered when entering a new univer- sity, transfer students often have an awkward time making the transition from a community college or four year institution to MMSU. This year the faculty senate passed a ruling which added re- quirements for students wishing to transfer to MMSU. Transfer students are now admitted on the basis of their high school academic rank, previous college extrance exam scores, cumulative grade point aver- age for earned transferable college credit and the strength of their high school and college curricula. Previ- ous requirements for transfer stu- dents were a cumulative QPA of 2.0 and 30 or more semester hours. Stu- dents with fewer than 30 credit hours were admissible on beginning fresh- man standards and had to have a cu- mulative QPA of 2.0 In the fall of 1984,392 transfer stu- dents enrolled at MMSU. In 1985, the number dropped to 338 and in 1986 the numbers dropped even more. In September 1986, 572 transfer stu- dents applied to MMSU. Of those, 285 were accepted and 227 actually enrolled. Registrar Lee Myers said she be- lieves the drop was because of the rigor of programs in addition to the increase in admission require- Academic rigors are tough in transition for students ments. Additional admission require- ments are not the only problems transfer students have faced. Junior transfer students Richard Wurl and Sarah Stevenson said they felt that these students have had a difficult time fitting in at MMSU be- cause they have not been highly in- formed. Part of the problem with fitting in for me, was that I'm a junior — and a new student, Wurl said. The oth- er juniors had already formed tight circles of friends, the freshmen all stuck together more or less, so older transfer students were left out in the cold. Stevenson stated she too had problems figuring out where she fit in, but was a little more fortunate due to the fact that she roomed with a freshman. My roommate would get flyers on upcoming events and pass the infor- mation on to me, she said. Even the simple things, such as getting parking permits or enrolling, can often be difficult for transfer stu- dents. When we arrived for enrollment, we were not informed on how to go about enrolling properly and it was confusing, Wurl said. Although many difficulties do ex- ist for transfer students, there is one organization that was created espe- cially for these students. Phi Theta Kappa is a national or- ganization based on the nation's communty and junior college levels. At community and junior colleges. Phi Theta Kappa members are honor students. At MMSU, membership in Phi Theta Kappa is offered to transfer students. Phi Theta Kapa is an orga- nization through which transfer stu- dents are given the opportunity to make an easier transition from a community college to a four year in sitituion. It also offers two students, one in-state and one out-of-state, full scholarship. The students must meet the required QPA and exhibit a good performance at the junior college level. -----------Margaret Blouin -------- MOVING ON Transfer students Sarah Ste- venson. jr„ and Richard Wurl.

Although the dollar figures changed, the actual amount in- creased more on paper than in reali- ty, Melinda Wood, systems manager of Financial Aids, commented. The Higher Education Act, which officially went into effect Jan. 1, in- creased the amount of money avail- able to students. The maximum award amount set for Pell Grant re- cipients jumped $200 to now total $2,300 for 1987-88; the bill provided that the amount would continue to grow by $200 annually. This looks nice on the surface,” Wood said. Wood explained that the $2300 projected for next year's grant awards was not approved by Congress. Congress appropriated only enough money to still give $2100, Wood said. However, Congress approved a four percent monetary increase. This figure restored the funds origi- nally given to the University before they were taken away the previous year. The aid increases gave students the opportunity to receive $4,000 for a Supplementary Educational Grant. But, the University only allows a maximum of $500 to be awarded. Juniors and seniors may apply for a $4,000 Guaranteed Student Loan while freshmen and sophomores Are students’ knowledge and money taken for “grant”-ed? are eligible for $2,625. The Perkins Loan, once known as the national Direct Student Loan, al- lows students to receive up to $4,500 during their first two years. Previously, students have re- ceived aid money in one check and were then able to deposit it into a bank to collect interest. Mow, the money is given in installments. According to Wood, this is to en- sure that the students who remain enrolled are the ones who get the money. How, the Financial Aids Office checks the enrollment list to make sure that the student stays enrolled for the spring semester too. Opponents to the change argue that the government wasted more money and more time on the new policy than necessary. “The government is spending dol- lars to save cents,” Trey Young, as- sistant vice president and loan offi- cer of the Bank of Kirksville said in an Index article. Institutions are dropping out because of all the pa- perwork.” The forms necessary to receive fi- nancial aid have expanded to com- bine the Pell Grant and Guaranteed Student Loan forms. Everyone ap- plying for financial aid must now fill out the longer ACT form. This makes the process more time consuming for those only wanting a loan but it also reduces the paper work for those who want to apply for both. Trying to get a GSL is a pain, ju- nior Sheila Porter said. I filled all the paperwork out, then had to do it all over again.” Many students didn't receive their loans until the end of the fall semes- ter. Senior Elaine Catron faced finan- cial difficulties because of the de- layed loan. I couldn't register because I owed the school money for tuition which I couldn't pay until I got my student loan. And I couldn't pay my emergency loan either until I got my student loan,” she said. Other students have found that getting their Guaranteed Student Loan from Financial Aids was no problem. I haven't had any trouble with my loan. It's been on time and definitely a great help,” sophomore Robin Cavanaugh said.

Photo by Margaret Blouin Academics 103 Financial Aids EXTRA YEAR At a university that evolved from a teacher's college, changes in teaching should come as no sur- prise. To Keep up with the on-going changes in the field of education, members of the Division of Educa- tion began redesigning the teacher- training program two years ago. Dan Ball, head of the Division of Education, said they decided to dis- continue the current Bachelor or Sci- ence in Education degree and re- place it with a five-year professional degree with psychology and educa- tion courses at a graduate level. The new program will consist of a B.A. or B.S. degree with 72 hours of general education, 30 major hours and 22 hours of electives. Ball recommended a B.S. in En- glish for students planning to work in elementary education. It has course work and content fitting for elementary teachers. What better area to study in depth?” Ball said. Under the new plan, a student would receive his undergraduate de- gree at the end of four years and be- gin graduate course work the follow- ing summer. Then, the student would intern at a cooperating school district for the following academic year. Ball said the internship would dif- fer drastically from the current stu- dent teaching program. It will be much more systematic and demanding to establish an in- ternship. Student teaching offers an orientation to the classroom, but the Education majors earn master’s in new five- year plan student internship gives induction into the teaching profession,” Ball said. The majority of internships will be set up on a full time basis for approx- imately one-half the base pay for the district. Of course, that will vary depen- ding on the district,” Ball said. Each student would be supervised by a master teacher.” A master teacher is one with five or more years of teaching experience and recommendations from school ad- ministrators. After the internship, the student would return to NMSU to complete the remaining course work and grad- uate, with a master's, in August. To be admitted into the program, students must score in the 50th per- centile on the Graduate Record Exam or have a 2.75 GPA and be ap- proved by the Division Admission Committee. To receive the master s degree, students must pass a comprehen- sive exam over the education course work of the master's program. The new program will go into effect in the fall of 1987. Current students have the option of remaining in the B.S.E. program or switching to the five-year plan. By 1999, the B.S.E. program will be completely phased out,” Ball said. Students had mixed reactions to the changes. Senior Pat Mitchell said he thought it was a good idea for incom- ing freshman education majors, but it might cause problems with those who decide their sophomore or ju- nior years to become an education majors, do they have to start the five- year program then? “Instead of the five-year plan be- ing manditory, it should be option- al,” Mitchell said. It's not right for the students who have been here for four years work- ing their tails off — it will be taking away jobs from them” a senior edu- cation major said. Ball said some students wished they were younger because they re- alize the benefits of the new pro- gram. We shouldn't forget that our ex- isting program is good, too. I really believe it is. It was just time for change,” Ball said. Ball said he hadn't received any strongly negative reaction to the new program. -------- Callen Fairchild ------- Academics 104 5-Year Plan MASTER PLAN Michael McManis. asst, com- missioner for the Coordinating Board for higher Education, outlines his plan to Board of Governors members Ric Brockmeier. sr.. and Myra Baiolto.

Photo by Matt Blotevogel Academics 105 5-Ycar Plan DRASTIC SHIFT This summer, efforts to start the new mission of MMSU as a liberal arts and sciences university began. Part of these efforts included new outlines for each division, shedding MMSU of its old academic major re- quirements, and making way for the new university. An organizational group was form- ed, headed by Dean of Instruction Darrell Krueger, to create a planning document, as required by Mouse Bill 196. The bill stated that the new Board of Governors must submit a three-year plan outlining admis- sions requirements, fees and pro- gram changes appropriate to a liber- al arts and sciences mission.” The mission of northeast Mis- souri State University is to offer an exemplar)' undergraduate educa- tion, grounded in the liberal arts and sciences, in the context of a public institution of higher learning. To that end the university offers undergrad- uate studies in the traditional arts and sciences as well as selected pre- professional, professional and mast- er's level programs that grow natu- rally out of the philosophy, values, content and desired outcomes of a liberal arts education,” according to the document. In order to fulfill this new mission, the planning group made many drastic changes in undergraduate and graduate requirements. Each di- vision packaged their own curricula and suggested changes to the plan- ning group. The majority was written by the faculty,” Krueger said. It was a Uni- versity-wide effort. We also worked closely with Peter Uhl, an outside consultant and editor of the docu- ment. He helped us create descrip- tions of what the majors should look like.” Changes play mind games, alter views of students The faculty spent many hours planning for the future, trying to jus- tify which areas of concentration were programmed for the new mis- sion. The results were a tightening of the curricula in each division, as in the elimination of the Bachelor of Science in Education degree. Ap- proximately 30 education degrees were combined into one five-year master's program, in which the stu- dent takes graduate courses of edu- cation in their respective fields. The advantage of this, (the five- year plan), is that our education teachers are not only in education. It (was) easier with our structure to change. It was more of a shift than an elimination,” Ed Carpenter, head of the Division of Language and Lit- erature, explained. Areas of concentration were also altered. By decreasing the areas, the University hoped to create an em- phasis on creative and critical thought and leadership, as opposed to promoting degrees focused on a specific job market. In the Business Administration major, five areas were deleted, leav- ing students to emphasize Finance, Management, or Marketing. In the agricultural area, three majors. Agronomy, Animal Science, and General Agriculture. Plus, 12 areas of concentration were tightened down to a single major. Agricultural Science, with three emphases. We could not afford to risk very narrowly prepared students with vo- cational oriented majors,” Robert Dager, head of the Division of Busi- ness, said. We re going to school to leam a vocation,” sophomore Mary Urban agrued. Urban, an animal health techni- cian, failed to see the importance of a liberal arts education. They shouldn't make us take a history course if it's not going to help in the field.” Overall, approximately 100 ma- jors, undergraduate and graduate, were trimmed down to 39 majors. Ar- eas of concentration were also cut from 75 areas down to 17 A question that has probably gone through students' minds as they have experienced these changes is, If the old University was such a na- tionally acclaimed institution, why change it? What was wrong with the old multi-purpose institution? There was nothing wrong with the old institution,” Krueger ex- plained. We love the old institution. It was fine. We turned it into the best regional institution in the Midwest,” he said. Krueger explained that the state gave MMSU the possibility of being an even better, more finely- tuned university. And these were the changes that have begun to lead the institution in that direction. --------- Helen Turnbull --------- Academics 106 Division Changes DIVISION or WHAT? new signs identify the di- CHANGING TIMES A secretary for the Di- vision name changes throughout the University, vision of Family Sciences begins to sift Due to curriculum changes it was necessary to through the piles of paperwork that await change the division names. her.

Mow they have a second chance for scholar- ship renewal, under a new University policy that was announced this year. Under the new policy, to take effect in the 1987-88 academic year, stu- dents can have as low as a 3.25 over- all QPA and still have their scholar- ships renewed. Previously, a 3.75 overall QPA was required for renewal of all academic scholarships; ex- cluding the Pershing scholarship. “With the new higher standards at MMSU and the increasing difficulty in maintaining a 3.75 QPA this policy is an appropriate thing to do, Presi- dent Charles McClain said. Students who have fallen below their scholarship requirement will now have a chance to have it renew- ed, in return for some sort of service to the University, whether in the form of a special project or working in a division office,” Kathy Rieck, ex- ecutive assistant to the president of the Admissions Office, said. Reick said the amount of service a student will have to do depends on the amount of the scholarship. The new policy requires students who have an overall QPA below3.75, but above 3.25, to sign the work WORKING MIS WAY TMROUGM Airt Man- uel. fr.. helps Joyce Almquist.Jr. tie worked in the Writing Center as part of his scholarship requirements.

Students with a QPA above 3.75 will not have to sign a work agree- ment. I'm really happy about the new plan. I don't think doing some sort of service for the school, in return for the scholarship, is asking that much, freshman Teresa Kaemmer- er said. “We wrote every student we thought the new policy would have an impact on and made them aware that June 1 was the deadline, Reick said. Junior Denise Pratte lost her scholarship last year and is one stu- dent who plans to get it back. I will be submitting a proposal of some type. 1 think a 3.25 is a lot more reasonable, since it's so hard to keep a 3.75 when you've had so many classes behind you, she said. The Admissions, Dean of Stu- dents, Financial Aids and Business offices will be answering any ques- tions students might have Reick said. After the proposals have been made they will be reviewed by a com- mittee of four people; one person will be represented from each office involved. The idea for the new criteria came after a period of discussion among administrators because of the in- creasing number of students who have lost their scholarships. ”1 like the new criteria because it gives students more flexibility in their grades, freshman Damon Roush said. This new policy has a sense of fairness, McClain said. What we hope to achieve with this new crite- ria is more student involvement in the school. --------- Brian Richardson ------- Academics 108 Scholarships BIG MONEY Creating napkin holders out of Popsicle sticks or sewing Cabbage Patch Kids may seem like interesting hobbies for the less adventurous, but James Paulding, professor of hu- manities and allied arts, has a hobby that he shares with few others. In the last ten years, Paulding has raised approximately $250,000 for a scholarship fund at NMSU and con- tinues his projects without pay for his work or receiving any of the money himself. The fund started because I start- ed raising money for historical grants, Paulding said. Little by lit- tle, I got used to raising money. I learned where to go to get money and found that I could do it. I got a kick out of it and decided that I would help the University as a hob- by. This year, Paulding mainly con- centrated on finding scholarship funds for students by appealing to corporations across the United States. Funds raised by Paulding will not be used in place of current scholar- ships, but will supplement the cur- rent dollar amounts offered. We have great results with our programs and want to continue them,” President Charles McClain said. One of the ways we can sup- plement them is by obtaining private sources of money. 1 am pessimistic about the possi- bility of moving into a first-rate, high- quality institution with only state support.” McClain said. The way to achieve a difference is through pri- vate giving. Fund raising hobby helps supplement student’s financial aid Paulding plans to continue raising funds until the spring of 1988. By that time, Paulding hopes to have raised $100,000 to $125,000. Paul- ding and McClain will evaluate the progress made by 1988 and then de- cide what action to take for the fu- ture. Teaching full-time is Paulding's main concern and with 700 students there is not a great deal of spare time available. To begin a correspon- dence with a corporation requires a great deal of time. Pickier Memorial Library was one of Paulding's most important sources. After identifying a corpora- tion, the next step involved looking at its budget to determine how much money might be available. I ask the corporation for all of the written information available about the company, Paulding said. “I then go to the people and express an interest. You can't get money with just one try, it's a building process. The process might have seemed fairly uncomplicated, but trying to convince a corporation that it should give money to NMSU, instead of another university, can be diffi- cult. Paulding's main effort was con- vincing the company that the Univer- sity is a worthwhile cause. It's almost like playing roulette, Paulding said. I have yet to see a true pattern I can rely on. The first large dollar amount came from the William Randolph Hearst foundation in San Francisco in the amount of $15,000. This will be used in the form of three $5,000 scholar- ships in art, music and mass com- munications. Money for a German scholarship in the amount of $10,000 was also received this year from the Max Kade foundation in Mew York. Raising money is one of the har- dest things in the world to do, Paul- ding said. That difficulty is increased considering that Paulding only takes on this project as a hobby. Jean Machen, an MMSU graduate student, assisted Paulding. This type of research and fund raising is stimulating and challeng- ing work, Machen said. The funds received from Paul- ding's part-time hobby will be used to make it economically easier for students to attend MMSU. My hope for the future is that I will be able, in my own meager way, to build up an endowment for the stu- dents at MMSU, Paulding said. ------Michelle Blotevogel-------- INTENTLY GAZING James Paulding, pro- fessor of humanities and allied arts, is key money raiser for the University.

People need something to enjoy their leisure time and have a break from all the academia and testing — they need to relax a little bit and it's a good class,” Lindhorst said. They leam a little something about the culture of our country, plus they leam how to move and that's a lot of fun.” The course, worth one credit hour, was offered in both the Spring and Fall semester. It usually had a larger enrollment in the Spring, with an average of 20 students, most of those being women. ”1 wish more guys would sign up for the class, but I think guys, espe- Students dance during class for college credit dally in our country, are a little hes- itant to sign up for a dance class. They're afraid they might have prob- lems with the movements, or that dance is something that girls do, but once they get in the class they have fun.” Lindhorst said. This girl I know talked me into it, it wasn't what I expected at first. I thought it would be all country and western, but it's not,” sophomore Chris Funke said. The first day I was worried after we did the Cotton-Eyed Joe, but we listened to Alabama and big band and other stuff too.” Recreation majors were the only students required to take the class. I was required to take it, but it didn't really do anything for me. Monday night class got to be a drag. I was more than content to take my B and leave,” junior Steve Kretz, a recreation major, said. Lindhorst said her students had skills tests over the waltz and the swing that focused on performance. It's mainly an activity class and that's how I test,” Lindhorst said. The music used for the class ranged from the old to the new. Rock Around the Clock” was a pop- ular tune for swing dances while Robert Palmer's, When I think of You” was good for the hustles. Swing is great because you can use country western music, the big band sound and rock 'n' roll, but with each different type of music you adapt a style that's a little bit differ- ent,” Lindhorst said. The thing that's fun about the class is that it has a lot of variety in different types of music and dance,” she added. Englebert Humperdink has a lot of waltzes and I drive my class crazy with that.” Most students, besides learning more than 10 different dances, genu- inely enjoyed the class. A lot of them I'd never heard of before, but you can alter the dances with your own variations to different music,” senior Holly Bagby said. It's learning a lot of basic steps to all the different dances and you take those and go from there.” I took the class as an elective and had a great time. I would definitely take it again.” sophomore Diane Spading said. Lindhorst said students from a va- riety of majors signed up to take the course,and most students needed electives. People sometimes get so caught up in classes they have to take that they're not aware of other classes — electives.” Lindhorst said. ---------- Tracy Showalter -------- A SMOULDER TO LEAN ON holly Bagby, sr.. and her partner Chris Funke, so., practice their dance steps during a lively country song.

The University started putting together this toy last spring, says Ed McEndarfer, the instructor responsi- ble for wanting to bring the comput- er graphics system to students at nMSU. The set now includes the Ar- tronics computer and two IBM AT computers. (Each is sold separately and batteries are not included — or needed.) The IBM AT computers are more technical than the Artronics system. The students who play with them don't just use the existing INSTANT AKT By using the wand from the new computer system.

The students who play with these computers concentrate on de- veloping software that will be the ba- sis for new curriculums and will be intergrated with existing classes, McEndarfer says. Of course, you do not buy this kind of equipment with Betty Crock- er coupons or Campbell Soup lables. At approximately $20,000 each, these computers are an invest- ment for students, McEndarfer ex- plains. It may be an expensive play- toy now, but the system will benefit computer science and graphic arts students as they prepare for a world filled with computers. Senior Dan Reiff is enrolled in an independent study course that uses the computer graphics system. He believes the work will be ofjob-seek- ing benefit. Videos and TV graphics are two fields where a lot of comput- er graphics are used and anyone who can approach a potential em- ployer with proof of experience in this area will have an advantage, says Reiff. Sooner or later, it's going to come into its own a little more, Reiff says. But he admits immediate uses for the equipment are a little out of focus. I'm not cutting it down, he clarifies, You use it to learn how it will benefit you in your other classes. It's a tool. But, he says he needs to experi- ment more before applying Artron- ics to his practical studies. With another wave of the magic wand, he puts a frame around the or- ange scribbles and the blue box. What else can we add? A purple cir- cle? A bright yellow rectangle? Maybe that triangle will do the trick It's a lot of fun, says Reiff.

Three retirees, Charles Fast, pro- fessor of health and education, Joa- quin Penalver, associate professor of Spanish and John Ross, professor of education, were honored for their years of service to NMSU. Also recog- nized were eight other faculty mem- bers for their 25th anniversaries and 16 other employees with 10 years of service to the University. After the service recognition and dinner, guest speaker John Godfrey, president of the University of King's College in Nova Scotia, presented a lecture entitled Oxford on My Mind. Godfrey's lecture concerned the five principles that make an Oxford education what it is. The first principle stressed the need for a university to be just the right size. It cannot be too large or the dy- namics start to break down. You need the energy of students and teachers constantly bumping into one another, talking about things at all times of the day and night, for- mally and informally, Godfrey said. Honors bestowed on worthy members of NMSU Godfrey commented on NMSU's liberal arts program. He discussed the differences between a liberal arts school and other colleges that have an industrial model of education. Another principle Godfrey stres- sed about education in Oxford is the certain, undefinable sense of style. It is important to offer your un- dergraduates an experience they cannot find elsewhere. Don't hesi- tate to invent tradition; we cheerfully do it all the time. Too often students and teachers subscribe to a nine-to-five view of life, Godfrey said. Having fulfilled their minimal contractual teaching obligation, fac- ulty members under the industrial model then go off and do something they are pleased to call their own work, also called research. Godfrey expressed that the impli- cations are that teaching undergra- duates is not their own work, but a burden imposed on them by an un- feeling, uncaring, tax-paying public. After his lecture, Godfrey spoke with faculty for a brief time and then turned his attentions to students. He spoke casually with students about such topics as Libya and Student Senate elections. He had some good ideas. Maybe they were not all applicable to NMSU, but they were interesting, sophomore Joe Bantz said. Keith Lawson, mailroom supervi- sor who was honored for 10 years service to NMSU, said that Godfrey was excellent. He was humorous, but he had a lot to say. He's the type of speaker you would go back to hear a second time, Lawson said. Irma Beets, supervisor of the Un- iversity's printing services, said the evening was enjoyable and added that she was thrilled to be honored under the new liberal arts banner for her 25 years of service. ENCOURAGING WORDS Guest speaker John Godfrey offers his opinions and sugges- tions concerning bettering higher education. After the reception, he talked with students and listened to their opinions.

Echo Staff Photo Academics 114 Baldwin Lecture NEW GOALS What's this? Another letter from HMSU? Come to school early? WHAT?! Read a book? How? I wonder what kind of school I've gotten my- self into? These may have been the thoughts of the 800 freshmen busi- ness and science majors when they were asked to attend a three-day Fall Leadership Orientation Conference Aug. 21-23. The conference, the first of its kind, was sponsored by the Division of Business Accountancy and the Division of Science. Essentially, the purpose of the conference was to bring students in to discuss leadership and greatness and to make friends. Basically it was to introduce them to all facets of stu- dent life,'' Ricki Trosen, business ac- ademic adviser, said. Each of the three days had a spe- cific focus, Trosen said. The first day was a get-acquainted day for the selected divisions. “We played some getting to know you games and formed groups that we used later in the conference, Trosen said. The second day placed its empha- sis on academics. Business students heard six speakers from outside the division speak about liberal arts and then discussed how the liberal arts can be applied to business situa- Freshmen attend a fall conference to discuss the future tions. Science students attended three seminars led by faculty members and then participated in hands-on research. On Saturday students in both groups discussed leadership, great- ness and goal-setting. The aim of the conference was to look at leadership through a broad spectrum and then to bring it down to a personal level and end up with goal-setting and writing the resume of the future,'' Trosen said. Thirty faculty members from vari- ous divisions and 40 student leaders from various majors assisted with the conference. “It was a good opportunity to share our insights with the fresh- men, junior Gayla Glaspie, student leader, said. “I attended the conference and it basically helped me to get to know other freshmen who were in my ma- jor. I also learned my way around campus, freshman Chris Kempker said. About 80 percent of the new busi- ness majors and more than 90 per- cent of the new science majors par- ticipated in the conference. “The conference gave us a chance to get to know people who are study- ing the same things we are. It gave us a head start over the other stu- dents, freshman Karen DeHaan said. Freshman Michelle Beck summed up the conference: “1 didn't mind coming to school early. It's been worth it. Last year's conference went so well that plans were made to hold conferences for each division next fall. All the counselors must go through an application and inter- view process. There are four divisions of counse- lors. Two of them are in the Career Planning and Placement Center and two in the Academic Planning Ser- vice. --------Callen Fairchild---------- PENCIL PUSHER Business major Karen Conlon. fr..

Photo by Matt Blotevogel Academics 117 Fall Leadership TAPED TALKS The changes in academics at NMSU are noticeable in many areas. Faculty are advocating quality speakers for students to hear and learn from. One such instructor, Pat Ellebracht, associate professor of business, has developed a tech- nique to bring quality speakers to campus, via a very different media. His idea was telelectures. Through the use of a portable tele- phone, Ellebracht was able to talk with top businessmen around the country, showing his students the ideas and strategies valued most by these successful men and women. 'I think the students benefit be- cause most of these men began at the bottom. I think the students see the determination to succeed ' El- lebracht said. Ellebracht's techniques have been selected for recognition. The upcoming book Great Ideas for Teaching Economics” (third edi- tion) will cite the concept Telelecture An Innovative Class- Professor interviews businessmen for classes via the phone room Tool”. Ellebracht said he wrote to vari- ous company heads, preferably lesser known companies, asking for an opportunity to interview them. These interviews were taped and played for marketing and other busi- ness courses. He then sent them copies of topics to be discussed and established an interview schedule. He has several tapes that he hasn't used yet. Many companies in- clude his series projects in their newsletter making him well-known to other companies. Students reactions have been pos- itive. The interviews themselves are interesting. They put the concepts presented in the books into perspec- tive,” sophomore Jill Gehner said. They work as a goal incentive.” Freshman Joan Fulhorst said she believed the idea was a good one. 1 think it was interesting, but perhaps the presentation's follow-through could add a little more if it were ap- plied directly to the text. The only problem with it is there isn't the feed- back of having a speaker before you.” Ellebracht's lectures were another example of the increased quality brought to students through NMSU's quality emphasis. ----------- Kathy Golden------------ NUMBER PLEASE rat Ellebracht, assistant professor of business administration, uses the concept of telephone lectures to supple- ment his classes.

It wasn't for freshman Beth Richardson. She was a graduate of Upward Bound. I wasn't even sure 1 wanted to go to college. Upward Bound showed a film at my school (Putnam County High School) my freshman year. I thought it was a really good way to become more socially and educa- tionally oriented, Richardson said. Upward Bound is a federally fund- ed program developed in 1966, by the Department of Education. It was designed to build a high school stu- dent's educational and motivational skills, in order to prepare them for postsecondary education. The De- partment of Education evaluated HMSU every three years to measure the programs effectiveness. Wayne Fiewman, director of Up- ward Bound, said approximately 85 students were selected this year from 12 different schools. He explained that selection of stu- dents for Upward Bound was not aca- demic intelligence, but rather, aca- demic potential. We do not look at high school range percentiles. We don't look at the ACT (American College Testing). You don't have to have a certain score to get in, Newman said. The program consists of two com- ponents: bimonthly meetings with a counselor during the school year and a five week session in the sum- mer on the NMSU campus. Students have usually begun Upward Bound in their junior years and continued the program straight through to col- lege. After the students' senior year, JUST MY TYPE Donna Banner works on the computer in the Upward Bound office. She was the receptionist and helped coordinate the summer program. Photo by John Meadows Academics 120 Upward Bound Teaching teenagers with more than just books Upward Bound offers them a sum- mer Bridges program, in which they immediately begin taking college hours. Our goal is to increase (a stu- dent's) overall performance within a given year. There are certain re- quired courses but some flexibility, Newman said. Students work closely with coun- selors not only to determine their college careers, but also to enhance their high school careers. I made increases in my high school GPA because there was al- ways someone encouraging me. Richardson said. They kept every- thing on schedule, making sure we were filling out the right forms at the right time, seeing us through the ACT. It was like having your own per- sonal counselor, she said. During the school year, the partici- pants met after school and planned small homework assignments in the needed areas of the individual stu- dents. On campus, the classes are suited to individual students, in subjects ranging from counseling to mathe- matics. The college has many motiva- tional devices to encourage the stu- dents, Newman said. He explained that familiarization of being on cam- pus helped ease the transition into college life. But Upward Bound is not all books and studying. We don't give grades, Newman said. My favorite class was called Value Clarification, Richardson said. We really got to know each other. There were really shy people in the class — by the end we all felt we could voice our opinion and not be looked down upon, she said. We try to get them involved, Newman said. We try to broaden their scopes. A student in a regular high school summer program deals with the same people. We expose them to different schools, different backgrounds, different perspec- tives. We work with their social life, their curriculum, their future. Upward Bound also exposes stu- dents to cultural events, by taking them to Kansas City or St. Louis. I had never been to an art muse- um before Upward Bound. There are paintings I've seen that I'll always re- member — paintings I had only seen in books before, Richardson said. Upward Bound was a perfect set- ting for motivational encourage- ment. There were no grades, no tu- ition, no emphasis on GPA's and plenty of social life. And it must have worked. Last year, NMSU's program proved to be 90 percent effective. ----------- Helen Turnbull -------- BUSY BEE Wayne fiewman. director of Up- ward Bound and head of professional devel- opment. confirms appointments for counse- lors.

Photo by Matt Blotevogel HISTORICALLY SPEAKING Mot only teach- ing. Carson, a Harvard graduate, emphasizes to her students the importance of accepting challenges and instilling those beliefs. Photo by Dixon Munday Academics 122 Carson IVY LEAGUE MMSU claims to be the Harvard of the Midwest, where you can receive an ivy league education at a reason- able price. Who's to say if this is an accurate comparison or simply a statement of puffery? Mina Carson, associate professor of history, can and does make that comparison. She earned her bache- lor's, master's and Ph.D. in history from Harvard University. While at Harvard she was an instructor of his- tory and served as an assistant se- nior tutor in charge of Fellowships at Dudley House. Dudley House is the administrative and advising center for non-resident undergraduates. Carson continuously stresses the importance of ideas and analytical thinking. This is one noticeable dif- ference between the students who attend Harvard and those attending HMSU. Although Carson said she has had some awfully good stu- dents” at HMSU, who were excited by ideas, many of the students at northeast find the analysis of ideas a chore rather than a pleasurable task. The students appear to resist accepting new and challenging ideas. Students here are pretty good but they don't seem to have had much experience with the trappings of the life of the human mind, like reading and writing. They can do it, but they're not used to it,” Carson said. This problem surfaced in a recent class of Carson's. A student contin- ued to look at her with an expression of anger and Carson confronted her with the problem and asked if she was mad at her. The student replied, Yes, I'm mad because you're mak- ing us read whole books!” Another noticeable difference be- tween the students of the two schools is their sense of self-confi- dence. It's not that all of the students at Harvard liked to read books, but they were more self-confident,” Car- Harvard graduate compares philosophy and classes son said. The students attending Harvard knew they could do anything when they got out of college. This is the impression Carson wants to instill into the students attending NMSU. That's what I want people here to realize. That with a liberal arts de- gree you can do anything that your personality can get you into,” she said. In terms of skills, it teaches you to mix with educated people.” Another advantage of a liberal arts education cited by Carson is its abili- ty to make one skeptical and to Car- son, skepticism is what constitutes a good citizen. Good citizenship is not loyalty. It's the ability to question and if you can see all of the crazy things of the past then you need to ask questions of the present.” The liberal arts and sciences phi- losophy directly compares to Car- son's own educational philosophy; the dispersion of ideas and the anal- ysis of content. Liberal arts and sciences educa- tion is as good as any. Content is su- premely important ... with a back- ground as to what people have thought in the past, literature they've written and the way they've grappled with problems in the past gives you an incomparable window on the world,” Carson said. I was heavily into my books. It was complete luxury to have plenty of time to read, study and think.” Carson stumbled onto the study of history purely by accident. She de- cided to broaden her horizons and enrolled in a European history course her sophomore year in col- lege. That was all it took to lure her in. It was that textbook. I read it and thought, this is magic, this is great - this is exactly how I want to think about the world.” As one would expecLCarson feels that studying history should be a vi- tal part in everyone's life. History is unique. I don't think you can understand anything with- out a temporal dimension of change over time. One's view of the world is singularly flat and one dimensional if one doesn't have a sense of what came before,” she said. She's brought lots of great ideas to the University and is an excellent colleague. People search out her opinion and value it,” Susan Shoaff, undergraduate council chairwoman said. Carson originally applied to many prestigious schools, but she knew the competition was very tough. Many of her competitors had already published books in the field. HMSU offered her a job in the social sci- ence division and she accepted. When hiring new faculty mem- bers we look for bright candidates who desire to work with students. Mina certainly has those character- istics. She's very proficient in her field,” James Lyons, social science division head, said. It was a solid job, at a good com- petitive salary in a different part of the country,” Carson said. People at Harvard thought I was nuts be- cause they had never heard of it... but I wasn't.” ----------- Ann McBride --------- Academics 123 Carson A LONG WAIT Around 1546, Johann Qutenburg became the first man ever to print a book, using a printing press, mov- able type, and special ink. He chose Cardinal Mazarin's handwritten Bi- ble for his first publication. More than 500 years later in 1986, NMSU became the first liberal arts and sciences institution of Missouri, using its value-added assessment program and accountability tech- niques. It was evident that these two con- tributors of history would soon meet, with the help of the Pickier Me- morial Library. In 1986, the library brought students closer to the medi- eval era by obtaining a limited edi- tion replica of the Qutenburg Bible. The two volume set, was pur- chased through the Midwest Library Service in St. Louis for $3,900. NMSU bought edition number 1022. It was accompanied by two volume guides that translate the medieval Latin in which the Bible is written, into mod- ern Latin and English. Because it was printed in medieval Latin, students had difficulty deci- phering words and letters. It was sort of like Japanese, but these letters were straight ' fresh- man Wayne Coats explained. I couldn't even make out a letter. NMSU was placed on a waiting list for the replica long before it was SPIRITUAL Lirr Wayne Coats, fr.. eyes the new library addition. This replica is $2,396,100 cheaper than the original Bible Quttenberg printed. Photo by Dixon Munday Replica of Bible joins history and library, all for $3,900 completed. Funds for the book came from the budget given to the library through the University. Anyone interested in viewing the replica could see it between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. weekdays, in the special collections section of the library. Odessa Ofstad, director of special collections, explained that the Bible fits in with the University's new mis- sion. Vie are trying to upgrade the sys- tem. We wanted to bring in some- thing that people here might not otherwise be able to see, Ofstad said. The replication process was com- pleted by chemistry and photogra- phy experts at the Mazarin Library in Paris, France. The original publica- tion was photographed page by page, and retouched to correct any damage done from aging. Experts then used Gutenburgs printing techniques with the same type of special ink in order to create the closest replica possible. It was also printed on specially manufactured paper similar to that Qutenburg used, with identical watermark li- nens. was kind of in awe with the size, the language and the art in it and that NMSU had it, Coats comment- ed. James Harmon, assistant profes- sor of humanities and allied arts, took his classes to see the Bible be- cause it is ‘ one of the foremost pieces in printing. There were only about 20 original Qutenburg s in the world, and only six of them in the United States, each valued as high as $2.4 million. Thus, the purpose for creating these reprints was to allow more people to appreciate the work as a master- piece of art and literature. Because there were limited edi- tions and only about three in Mis- souri, the replicas have become yet another unique form of education available to students of NMSU. ------- Helen Turnbull ---------- Academics 124 Gutenberg Bible LINC TO PAST The facts and the myths of his life are to be an American possession, shared widely over the world, for thousands of years ... This is be- cause he was not only a genius in sci- ence of neighborly human relation- ships and an artist in the personal handling of life from day to day, but a strange friend and a friendly stranger to all forms of life that he met.” When Carl Sandburg wrote this about Abraham Lincoln in A Lin- coln Preface,” he was hoping to reach someone who would share his obsession with a great man. One of the people he did reach out to was Fred Schwengel, a 1930 graduate of MMSU. Schwengel had picked up The Life of Abraham Lincoln, an 1866 biogra- phy by J. Q. Holland, in Kansas City. At one of his lectures, Sandburg in- spired Schwengel to begin a collec- tion of Lincoln memorabilia and in 1978, Schwengel's hobby became the Lincoln Collection of Pickier Me- morial Library. Schwengel first began donating his artifacts in 1976. The book he had found in Kansas City turned into four copies, one translated into Ger- man. Soon the collection evolved into more than 3000 paintings, plates, stamps, postcards and per- iodicals. We have all kinds of groups come in to look at the collection — histori- Alumnus donates honest art of the “rail- splitter” cal societies, girl scout and boy scout groups, high schools and grade schools,” Odessa Ofstad, li- brarian, said. A highlight of the collection was a seven-panel series of drawings of the life of Helen J. Hinrichsen, from Dav- enport, Iowa. To compliment the collection, contests at high school and colle- giate levels have been held annually in art, oratory and essay categories, funded by the Lincoln Foundation of MMSU. It is believed to be one of the larg- est collections of Lincoln ever as- sembled by an individual. What inspired Schwengel to do all of this for MMSU? He explained in a speech at the University in 1976, that his generosi- ty is a result of what MMSU once gave him: This, then, becomes a down pay- ment for what is owed to this school for the patience and talents shared, for inspiration and spiritual guid- ance, for encouragement and finan- cial help, for the growth and stature earned and most of all, for the devel- opment of a desire to serve fellow men.” In 1858, Lincoln himself said, If we could first know where we are and whither we are tending, we could better judge what to do and how to do it.” Schwengel's success shows how he followed Lincoln's advice. With the help of a football scholar- ship, Schwengel graduated from MMSU with a Bachelor of Science in Education in History. He also taught and coached in both Kirksville and Shelbina school districts. Schwengel has served eight years in Congress for Iowa and since 1962, presided over the U.S. Capitol His- torical Society. Later, he was the co- author of We The People,” a histo- ry book that has sold over three mil- lion copies. Schwengel has stood among many scholars who have had an endless passion to study Lincoln and by contributing the collection to MMSU, he has allowed students as well as local citizens to enjoy the many faces of a multi-talented man. -----------Helen Turnbull----------- HONEST PORTRAIT Scott Wilson, fr.. stares at the legendary Abe Lincoln.

Well, it de- pends on whom you ask. At six feet three and 325 pounds, John Ware is not a dream. The articulate 27-year-old Ware resembles an over- grown Terminator, if that's possible. His brush- style haircut sticks up like a porcupine. His deep, slowly- calculating voice thinks through every syllable. This former Drake Univer- sity honorable mention All- American and current HMSU offensive line coach is pro- jected as one of the top pow- erlifters in the world today. Of the five major meets. Ware has captured a title in three. He has won the national Powerlifting Championship, Collegiate Powerlifting Championship (while still at Drake) and the YMCA na- tional. Impressive enough? no. I've always wanted to wake up one day and be the best in the world at some- thing. That is the drive which keeps me going. If I could win it all, just once. I'm not sure I would stay in it much longer, Ware said. With only the Senior na- tionals and World Cham- pionships eluding his grasp, that news would only be good to his competitors. Ware recently won the YMCA meet with a 909 lb. squat, 556 lb. bench press and a 794 lb. dead lift — a 2,259 total. Following that, he pro- duced a 912-and-a-half pound squat at the Central USA meet, where he also took first place. Ware focuses in on the to- tal weight record of 2,425 pounds, wanting to break it by the time he turns 30. The total world record I think is in my grasp. 1 figure if I can squeeze out a 600 lb. bench, 1,000 lb. squat and an 830 dead lift. I'll be right where I know I have reached my potential. Those would be astro- nomical numbers for a man who doesn't exactly lift in America's hotbed. To a degree weights are weights. I was out in the orig- inal Gold's Gym when it was the place to be. It's not the facility, not the chrome-plat- ed fancy equipment — it's the overall atmosphere. If you have a lot of posi- tive people around you then you can go a long way, no matter where you are lifting. The only thing I desire is to have somebody a little closer to my strength level with whom I can train. With training a necessity to stay atop his profession. Ware has the task ofjuggling three roles. He originally came to HMSU to work toward his master's in psychology. Also hired as a strength coach for the football program. Ware now had another priority to attend to. This past fall, coming in as the full-time offensive line coach. Ware knew powerlift- ing could not hold the spot- light. When all my responsibili- ties are done then I workout. I have to be satisfied with quality, intense workouts in order to make it all work. I'm not one of those types of people who have to work out twice a day, eight days a week. When you get to the upper levels the train- ing isn't as often as one would think, Ware said. The busy schedule in- cludes teaching weight train- ing courses for the Univer- sity's Division of Health and Exercise Science. When Ware comes into contact with students starting out for the first time, his presence can have an effect. The stares and muffled conversa- tion increase when he enters the student weight room. This E.F. Hutton effect doesn't inflate Ware's ego. I don't concern myself with an image. If you take things in stride and can be a good person, your image will take care of itself. The only difference be- tween myself and a guy just starting out is the amount of time that has been put in, and the desire to do it. Ware's desire and effort started when he was in school at Drake. His intense lifting won him many com- petitions and his size got him a job as a body guard for the rock group AC DC. All of this coming at an early age for the native of Ottumwa, Iowa. Ware mentioned that his family's support helped in- still his confidence and men- tal drive. My mom thinks it's dan- gerous. She doesn't tell me not to do it — it makes her happy because she knows I enjoy it. My dad has always been highly athletically competi- tive and he appreciates what I do. He's always been a driv- ing force behind me. I guess now he understands why I didn't pursue a pro football career. Ware had many tryouts with professional teams, both in the HFL and the now idle USFL. I made it down to the 49ers last cut, the year after they won their first Super Bowl. I've been invited back there and to other camps. I loved college football, but as for pro football much of the zest and zeal is gone for me. 1 didn't appreciate it as much. His busy schedule really doesn't allow the satisfied Ware to seriously contem- plate his future. He men- tioned the fact of powerlifting becoming an Olympic sport. If that were the case he said he might consider staying in. until 1992, assuming it would be inducted that quickly. Right now, powerlifting is on its way back. In 1978 and '79 it was at its peak, then it became a little political and lost its appeal to the masses. With a renewed image the Olympics are a possibility. One definite is his upcom- ing marriage to Melissa Tho- mas this May. As for another profession ... I've actually entertained the thought of pro wrestling. I wouldn't mind looking into it. I'd have to develop a niche, a certain hype and personality. The thought of someone Ware's size pulling off an atomic drop from the top rope turns this one-time fairy-tale dream into a shud- dering nightmare. ------Greg Swanson----------- Sports 129 Ware VOLLEY OF YOUTH' nee neither a winning season nor a conference champion- ship was in the cards for the 1986 women's volleyball team. Its roster listed no sen- iors and its record showed the need for experience. In the end, this need made the 1986 season all the more productive as the five jun- iors, one sophomore and three freshmen gained valu- able playing time through- out the season. Head Coach Debbie Mas- ten said the team often played against a starting lineup of all seniors. Howev- er, she saw the majority of underclassmen on the team as a boost to its coming sea- sons. We re young and that hurt us in working together and we were up and down a lot. It would have helped to have a few veterans, junior Tami Billerbeck said. As a team I felt we could have finished better because of so much talent. I was happy personally with the way I played throughout the season, though I could've done bet- ter, junior Beth Tank said. The team finished its sea- son with a 17-26 mark and a fourth-place finish at the Mis- souri Intercollegiate Athletic Association championships at the University of Missouri- St. Louis. The Lady Bulldogs went five games against UMSL but won only the sec- ond and third games. The women then beat northwest Missouri State University (Maryville) three games to one before losing in their last round 3-1 to UMSL At the beginning of the season I really didn't know what to expect. I thought we would be pretty good if we worked well together,” freshman Stephanie Deere said. I was disappointed, be- cause I felt we didn't reach our full potential. We had a lot of talent but for some rea- son things just didn't click for us,” she added. Another highlight of the season was the team's win over Qraceland College. They're our big rivals and we d already lost to them once, so beating them at home was a real boost,” Bil- lerbeck said. All conference honors be- ing given to three players was another positive aspect of the season. Junior hitter, Jody Steirs, was named to the MIAA first team. Tank, who served a variety of func- tions for the team, received second-team recognition and sophomore Jackie Vow- ell, a strength on the de- fense, was given honorable mention. Steirs and Tank led the team in hitting percentages; Steirs ended with a .335 mark and Tank close behind at .328. Tank also led the Lady Bulldogs on defense with 117 blocking stuffs and 498 digs. Offensively, Biller- beck served 46 aces over the season. Tank had 39 and Deere had 36. Overall, Masten feels that the fact that she had so many young players, the team as a whole became more competitive as individ- ual players gained much- needed playing time. ------ Janet Waddell ----- SHOOTING TOR THE CEILING Jodi Steirs, Jr., sends one skyward as teammate Jackie Vowcii, so., arrives on the scene.

What these numbers mean may be a good question. What they represent is eye- opening. First off it was a drizzly, gray, windy and frigid 58 de- gree day at Thousand Hills State Park on Sept. 4. Terrible, right? Wrong. This type of weather is ideal for a triathlete. If times are an indication then we know the weather wasn't a factor,'' Dan Martin, manag- er of the KCOM Thompson Center and triathlon organiz- er, said. Last year's winning time on the international course (three-quarter mile swim, 18 miles of biking and a five- mile run) was 1:43:21 — this year it was 1:33:22. So the 58 meant degrees to the weath- erman but nothing to the triathletes. The first person to cross the finish line was Jim Heady from Columbia, Mo. This is where the number two comes into play, and in a ma- jor way. Heady was the first to cross the finish line but not the official winner. Be- cause of a two minute biking infraction. Heady was bump- ed to second and John Reif (1:33:22) was declared the overall winner. We had an informational meeting the night before to explain the rules and he (Heady) couldn't make it. He wasn't mad. He understood the circumstances,” Martin said. Heady was not without a couple of amazing feats. He ran the final mile of the race in a blistering 4:38. The time was good, but also misleading because it was almost all down hill,” Heady said. But after previ- ously swimming the three- quarter mile route, biking the 18 miles and running the four miles, that final mile time would be good no mat- ter what hill it was run down. Heady also forgot to place his running shoes next to the exchange area for the switch from the bike to the run. I yelled at my brother who was standing near the exchange area, but then I re- alized I had left them in the van. I ran back to get them which probably cost me a minute and a half to two min- utes,” Heady said. Reif who later found out he was the overall winner was unavailable for comment. The overall sixth-place fin- isher was KCOM student, Paul Mausling. Mausling is a world-class marathoner (2:16) and he compared the two sports; Triathlons are very tiring because of the transitions, but they are not as tiring as a marathon.” The second-place finisher for the women was young also — 48 years young. Patsy Hudgins of Kirksville, said, I plan on doing this as long as possible. People will make comments about me and my age, at the beginning of the race as well during it. The remarks are not deroga- tory in any way and I get a kick out of them.” Though the top 10 fin- ishers in both the men's and women's flights qualify for the national at Hilton Head, South Carolina, Hudgins does not plan on going be- cause of previous commit- ments. One woman who does plan on going, as she did last year is HMSU senior Lucia Brown, this year's third place finisher. Last year the ocean tore me up on the swim, but this year I plan on doing all of my water training in the lake. The waves in the ocean were so big you couldn't see peo- ple 50 feet in front of you,” Brown said. The women's top finisher was Gloria Mielke (2:01:56) who describes herself as a natural” swimmer; she competed four years in var- sity swimming at St. Kath- erine's Hamline University in St. Paul, Minn. Mielke was the second individual out of the water after the three- quarter mile swim. Swimming is obviously my strongest event and I would like to mention I thought the entire event was ran very well,” Mielke said. Martin said that the growth of triathloning, (this year's field more than doubled last year's), the bringing in of better athletes and the fact that there were no injuries at all, aided in the smooth run- ning of the event. He also added that these were the main ingredients for the fast- er times. Martin simply described the triathlon as a success, citing the 112 individuals en- tered (the final and most im- presive number in the group), five of those from the 50 and over age category. There were 21 three-man teams which each person on the team took part in one of the three stages. The winning team included NMSU junior Craig Lange- meir (swim), Joe Rodgers (bike) and Tom Owens (run) with a time of 1:34:25. -----Greg Swanson------ WARMER THAM AIR Despite air temperatures in the 50's and an oc- casional drizzle, the triathtetes found a challenge from only each other Instead of the elements.

The men im- proved their record for 4-10- 4 in 1985 to 12-6-2 in '86. The women also experi- enced an improved winning percentage, moving from 0- 15 to respectability at 5-9-1 this past season. Mew players aided in the development of the men's season. Incoming freshman as well as junior college transfers were integral parts of this second-place Missou- ri Intercollegiate Athletic As- sociation conference team. Sophomore forward mid- fielder Quinn Ross was one of those new faces. Ross not only made the jump from Portland, Ore., to Kirksville but he did so with apparent ease. Ross was chosen to the MIAA first team as he was second on the squad in scor- ing (20 points) and first, with a near-record breaking per- formance, in assists (eight). For the fourth straight year senior Steve Schlichtig, a three-time MIAA First-Team selection, led in scoring. In 20 games, he scored 12 goals and gave out seven as- sists for 31 points. Steve was a leader in his own way. He's definitely an All-American candidate and will be a hard one to re- place, Head Coach Dave Poggi said. Schlichtig credited much of the team's success to be- ing in good physical shape and much of his own success to the play of Ross. Quinn was one of the rea- sons why I was on the MIAA first team. He set me up a lot, Schlichtig said. Assistant Coach, Dan Ho- gan, said conditioning was a key because a lot of guys needed to be stronger. When you first look at the season, especially right after the loss to UMSL (University of Missouri at St. Louis), it was kind of an empty feeling. There weren't any extrinsic rewards ... it was just over. But, after you've taken time to reflect on it, more impor- tantly, the intrinsic rewards became real obvious, Poggi said. Poggi was voted MIAA co- Coach of the Year by his peers and Schlichtig was co- Player of the Year. Others on the all-conference first team were senior midfielder Tony Drennan and sophomore back Bobby Atherton. Second-team members were junior Steve Goldbeck, sophomore goalie Butch Siering and freshman Bart Berry. Coming off two initial sea- sons that produced only two wins and a tie, the women's program received a boost by winning five games. The squad tripled the pre- vious year's marks for goals, assists and total points and set every new scoring record in the third year of woman's soccer. In addition, the Lady Bull- dogs won consolation hon- ors in a first-ever home tour- nament, the HMSU Invita- tional. Much of the team's scor- ing and success can be at- tributed to 10 freshman. Doing most of the scoring was freshman forward Deidre Brenner, who shatter- ed the previous scoring re- cord of four goals in a sea- son. Brenner netted seven goals and had two assists for 16 points. I was surprised by my scoring. I hoped I could score in college, but I wasn't confident at the beginning, Brenner said. She led all scorers but still has more potential. She had a lot of pressure on her to score all the goals, which limited her from playing her best. With a little experience behind her, she could be great, Head Coach Alvaro Duran said. Another freshman, mid- fielder Tracy Deutsch, not only controlled the center game defensively but man- aged to also score occasion- ally. Deutsch scored three goals and had two assists. The numerous freshmen were not without senior lead- ership and guidance. Senior wingback Helen Turnbull, last season's MVP, and senior midfielder Jan- nine Reaka, this season's most improved player, were two main elements in this ex- ample-setting role. Jannine did a complete turnaround from the previ- ous season. She was a great plus the entire season, ju- nior stopper Val Hoeppner, said. Duran added, It was a pretty successful season, considering how many fresh- man were depended on and the numerous injuries we had throughout the sea- son. -------Greg Swanson------- and ----------Jim Davis------- rront row.

This was probably the best team in the seven years I've been here,” Women's Head Cross Country Coach John Cochrane said. The women finished sec- ond only to Southeast Mis- souri State University (Cape Girardeau) in the Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic As- sociation championship meet. We probably finished as well as we could on that par- ticular day,” Cochrane said. Southeast was a pretty tough team. They ran really great that day,” senior Cheryl Mitchell said. After the conference meet the team posted a fourth place finish in the Great Lakes Regional and as a team did not qualify for the national meet. Leading the way through- out the season was fresh- man Kerry Greenwood- Knepper. Knepper finished fifth overall in the confer- ence meet, second at the re- gional and 45th at the NCAA Division II meet in Riverside, Calif. Nationals was more than I expected,” Knepper said. Harder than I expected.” The women had three freshmen in their top seven runners which turned out to be an asset. The men also completed a banner year, though finish- ing a disappointing 16th place at the NCAA Division II meet, also at Riverside. We had a main goal to qualify for nationals,” senior captain Tim Brown said. The Bulldogs finished sec- ond in both the MIAA and the Great Lakes Regional meets to SEMO. After their second-place finish. Head Coach Ed Schneider was named Great Lakes Region Coach-of-the- year. I think that regionals was our best overall team effort,” Schneider said. NMSU was led by Brown who took first place individ- ual honors in the regional meet, marking the first time a Bulldog runner had ever won that race. Schneider said he was skeptical going into the sea- son not knowing what kind of shape his team would be in. The turning point was probably the first meet of the year. It indicates that we had some guys in better shape than what I thought,” Schneider said. A key in the successful season was in the talent of the freshmen. Both fresh- men Stan Johnson and Rob- ert Lawrence were consis- tent runners throughout the season and competed in the national meet. It was real exciting run- ning at nationals, it's some- thing I didn't really antici- pate at the beginning of the season. I mean, I knew the team was going to be pretty good but running at nation- als was more than I expec- ted,” Johnson said. 1 was really impressed with the quality of the fresh- men, junior Phil Reinke- meyer said. Reinkemeyer and junior Royce Hardesty, along with sophomores Don Obert and Darrin Schneider, also com- peted in the national meet. 1 think we ran to our po- tential — up until nationals. We needed to put more em- phasis on going to nation- als,” Reinkemeyer said. Schneider said this year's team had a high amount of depth and the high competi- tion among the team helped the quality of the team. ------ Steve Fisher ----- AT A GLANCE Mn‘l CrOtS Country OPP.

The Lady Bulldogs en- joyed one of their best sea- sons ever, placing fourth in the national tournament in posting a 34-14 record over- all, 15-4 in the Missouri Inter- collegiae Athletic Associa- tion. It was the second best winning percentage (.708) in school history. We were successful be- cause we had strong leader- ship and good communica- tion, to go along with talent. The experienced players provided good leadership,” head Coach Tarry Parrish said. We got there because our kids had good leadership skills. A little bit of luck was involved also. You have to have a little bit of luck some- times to go that far,” Parrish said. Parrish noted the MIAA conference championship while sophomore utility player Deb Weno looked to- ward the regional champion- ship victory. The game we won at re- gional that qualified us for nationals was the highlight of the season,” Weno said. Twenty-four school rec- ords were set during the '86 campaign, with most falling in the pitching department. The Lady Bulldogs ranked third in the nation in team pitching last year with a 0.47 eamed-run average. Partly responsible was senior pitcher Trish Kongable, who rewrote 12 of those records. Last season, Kongable be- came the sixth Lady Bulldog ever to receive All-American accolades, being named to the second team. The over- powering right-hander was voted as the Most Valuable Player in the conference, as well as a member of the All- Central Region team. It was great. It's some- thing you always work for, but the team came first. It's nice to get those things for yourself. It accomplished some goals that 1 set for my- self,” Kongable said. Trish had a banner year for us. When she stepped on the mound, you knew things would be under control and she relayed that to her team- mates,” Parrish said. A 20-game winner in 1986, Kongable ranked among the national leaders in eamed- run average (0.25), strike- outs (181) and most victo- ries (20). However, it was a trio of pitchers who dominat- ed game in and game out. Junior Tami Billerbeck ranked among the national leaders in strikeouts per sev- en innings (8.5). The first team All-MIAA utility player boasted an eamed-run aver- age of 0.81 and a 9-3 record. When not pitching, she played first base where she led the club in hitting (.336). Weno was the final third of the pitching rotation. She was just as impressive with a 6-4 record and 0.63 ear- ned-run average. Our pitching was definite- ly a strength. It was very con- sistent the whole season,” Parrish said. Coming into the season, the Lady Bulldogs set their sights on the national tour- nament. The road to the Fi- nal Four was a long process, however, they accomplished their year-long goal in the end. We met our goal in reach- ing the Final Four. We found out we could play with the best teams in the nation. They (the team) were glad to get there. They were appre- ciative of getting there. I kept telling them to take it one step at a time,” Parrish said. HMSU was well represent- ed on the all-conference units. Making first team All- MIAA were; Kongable (pitch- er); Billerbeck (utility); se- nior outfielder Liz Chavez, who hit .310 as the team's leadoff hitter and senior sec- ond baseman Johnna Fields, co-captain and only Lady Bulldog to play on two NCAA Final Four teams (1982, 1985). Weno was selected to the second team as a pitcher. Junior shortstop Jeanette eleven and junior catcher Pat Hernandez were chosen as honorable mention picks. We had good pitching and were able to get base hits in key situations. We did everything we wanted to,” Weno said. It was really exciting go- ing to the Final Four. It was a worthwhile experience.

The swing of the clubs kept getting better through- out the 1986 season for the NMSU golf teams. Making their way through the spring without a place to practice the Bulldog men managed to win their third consecutive Missouri Inter- collegiate Athletic Associa- tion conference champion- ship and finished 14th in the national Collegiate Athletic Association Division II tour- nament at Tarpan Springs, Fla. Because of renovations being done to the Kirksville Country Club during the spring, the men were unable to practice. 'We would just go to the tournaments wondering how we were going to do. junior Jose Fabres said. However, the Bulldogs were able to practice a few times in Macon. Pacing the Bulldogs throughout the '86 cam- paign was freshmen Juan Velasco who tied for fifth place in the NCAA meet. Velasco's finish gave NMSU its first golfer ever with All-American status. I really wasn't conscious of what an All-American was because I'm not American, Velasco said. But I am proud of it. Velasco finished the four- day tournament with 298 strokes. ”J.P. (Velasco) has had a lot of experience on the Chile national team, Head Coach Bill Richarson said. He's played some of the very best courses inthe world. He thrives on compe- tition. Richarson said he thought the team could have finished higher in the NCAA tourna- ment. We just didn't seem to play all well together, Ri- charson said. Still, in all, it's tough to beat those Cali- fornia and Florida teams. Richarson said the squad kept improving as the sea- son progressed and by the time the conference and na- tional meets came up the team was playing to their best. Fabres also finished high for the Bulldogs in the NCAA meet, coming in 51st. I had hoped for a higher finish, Fabres said. I didn't meet up to my expecta- tions. . Only in its second year, the NMSU women's golf team closed out their fall season with a second place finish in the Division II section of the College Invitational (Des Moines, Iowa). In the spring, I knew, or at least I thought, we wouldn't be that good, sophomore Michelle Wirth said. It was tough practic- ing without a course, but as the season moved on, we came together as a team. Head Coach Sam Lesseig said he was happy with the improvement of the predom- inantly young team and new program. Our main goal for the season was to win a tourna- ment and we did that, Les- seig said. I think we've shown a lot of progress in the last two years. In the fall we play an easier schedule, mostly Divi- sion III schools, and then in the spring we play a tough Division I schedule. The conditions of our course really didn't affect us that much, junior Beth Fol- som said. The Lady Bulldogs fin- ished first at the Simpson College (Indianola, Iowa) In- vitational. Leading the way for the women throughout the sea- son was junior Kristin Les- seig who finished third in the College Invitational. Also aiding in pulling the team through the fall season were senior Sandy Capesius and junior Beth Folsom. “We've been very consis- tent this year, Capesius said. I think all of us were happy with the season. Lesseig said he has had problems building the pro- gram from the ground up. The toughest part is get- ting people to know you even have the sport, he said. ------ Steve Fisher------- rKONT ROW Beth rotsom. MichcHe Wirth. SteptiJrriC Oiermatl BACK ROW Kristin Lesseig.

The Bulldogs found out that the toughest task in any sport is repeating a confer- ence title. The people we had com- ing back worked hard at it. We as a coaching staff felt that we were capable of win- ning conference again. We would of had it not been for the loss to Central, Defen- sive Coordinator Dave Harms said. The Bulldogs had some very worthy opponents on their non-conference sched- ule. They opened up the sea- son by facing Division I-AA nationally ranked Eastern Il- linois University. Then their schedule took them to northern Michigan Univer- sity, where the Dogs were routed 34-0. To make matters worse, the Bulldogs had to close out their season on the road against the no. 4 ranked Di- vision II team at the time. Central State of Ohio. The Bulldogs ended their season at 5-5 overall. “I think that was the toughest Division II non-con- ference schedule that there was in the country, without a doubt, Offensive Line and Strength Coach John Ware said. The Bulldogs began their quest for another confer- ence championship on the right foot with a narrow Homecoming victory over northwest Missouri State University (Maryville). But then, a stubborn Cen- tral Missouri State University (Warrensburg) defense pro- vided a huge roadblock in the 'Dogs path toward re- peating as conference cham- pions. “It was the biggest disap- pointment of the season. I think it got a lot of people down. After that everybody basically knew that we couldn't win it, senior offen- sive lineman Pete Simpson said. Even though we lost, I think it was our best game of the year. Both defenses played well. We just made some mental mistakes, se- nior defensive end Matuu Matuu said. The loss knocked the Bull- dogs out of the driver's seat in the conference race, which was eventually won by CMSU. The Bulldogs then set their sights on second place in the MIAA, but those hopes were dashed when they lost to Southeast Missouri State University at Busch Stadium. The 'Dogs gave up two touchdowns via kickoff re- turns in suffering a 38-23 de- feat. SEMO returned a kickoff 82 yards for a score. The sec- ond touchdown against NMSU's special teams oc- curred on a bizarre on-side kick the Dogs attempted late in the game, which back- fired. Those two kickoff returns killed us, Head Coach Jack Ball said. “That's 14 points. What did we lose by — 15? That obviously was a killer. The season was not with- out top-notch personal efforts. Senior wide receiver and All-American Russell Evans broke two school single-sea- son records in the game, most pass receptions (82) and most reception yardage (1,167). The 82 pass catches was also a conference re- cord. “It was ironic doing it against Rolla. It is something I am always going to remem- ber, Evans said. Evans led the MIAA in re- ceiving and was second in NCAA Division II receptions. He was a candidate for the Harlon Hill Trophy (top Divi- sion II player in the nation). Russell's stats speak for themselves. We threw to him in about every crucial situa- tion and he always came through. I've never seen a competitor like Russell Ev- ans, Receiver Coach Ken Manwaring said. Although the Bulldogs fin- ished third, there were some bright spots in the season. The Bulldogs led the confer- ence in total offense, junior quarterback Matt Heidmann led the league in passing and junior running back Roketi Esau led all rushers in the conference. “We lacked consistency, but we had a desire to win. Everybody gave all they could. The bond that the team had played a big part in the season, too, junior de- fensive end Ernie Myerson said. Tour players were selected to the A1I-M1AA first team; Ev- ans, Esau and sophomore center Jim Burchett on of- fense and Matuu on defense. Second team selections for the Bulldogs were Heid- mann, Simpson, junior tight end Ed Stowe, junior line- man Kevin Gorgal and junior lineman Kevin Urbatsch on offense and Myerson on de- fense. Honorable mention recipi- ents were senior linebacker Scott Griffith, junior line- backer Mike Bellers, senior defensive back Dave Kramer and junior defensive back Pat Fine. —Jamie Knapp — CLEARING THE WAY A path is LOOKING IT IN Russell Evans, made for Vernon Whitlock, Jr., by sr., gets a grip on the pass rifled Chuck Clemens, sr., and Kevin Ur- chin-high.

Photo by Kent Snipes Photo by Kent Snipes SPLISH SPLASH swimmers make ■ big waves In his second season as MMSU's head Swim Coach, Chuck Arabas was pleased with the performance of his athletes throughout the 1986-87 campaign. I think we had a much better season than last year ' Arabas said. We had really good times.” Both the men's and wom- en's teams posted winning records and even erased a few school records. The men came out of the year with a 7-4 dual mark and a disappointing fourth place finish in the Midwest Regional Championship, which was held in the MMSU natatorium. The nationally ranked Uni- versity of Missouri-Rolla won the meet. The Lady Bulldogs swam to a 7-0 dual record and a third place finish in the Divi- sion II competition of the notre Dame University Invi- tational (South Bend, Ind.). Both squads were ham- pered by pool maintenance problems and were unable to practice for three days be- fore the Midwest Regional meet. It really hurt them, there's no question about it,” Arabas said. It was diffi- cult for them to tell where they were on turns.” Even under these condi- tions, the Bulldogs were able to break two school records in the meet. Junior co-captain Chris Mixon erased his previous mark in the 100-yard butter- fly with a time of :53.0. Mixon along with juniors, Doug Grooms and Scott Shettle teamed up with se- nior Matt Winter to clock a 3:19.08 in the 400-yard freestyle relay. Coach wanted to see improvement,” Shettle said. And everyone really im- proved greatly. The men set four other records this season, includ- ing the 400-yard medley (3:43.23) of Winter, Mixon, Grooms and junior Dale Brown. The season went well but toward the last champion- ship meet we wanted to do better,” Winter said. Winter added that their times did not allow them to do that. Arabas said the men's squad was a well-rounded team effort that was up against stiff competition. The undefeated Lady Bull- dogs were led by senior di- vers Sherri Haas and Shelly Kester. Both were four-time MCAA Division II qualifiers. Haas, who earned an All- American honorable men- tion status in '86, spent the later part of the '87 season sidelined with a back injury. Yet she still competed in the national meet. I set a goal to be All- American this year,” Haas said. That's pretty tough to accomplish when you've been out so long.” Sophomore Lori Walrath in her first year also qualified for this year's MCAA meet. The national meet took place in Orlando, Fla., on March 12. Of the three women di- vers, only Kester advanced past the qualifying round. In the 3-meter preliminary, Kester finished with 328 points and placed 17th. Walrath and Haas both didn't make it past the quali- fying round. The women swimmers turned in their best preform- ances this year at the Motre Dame Invitational. We could have had some better team spirit through most of the season,” Arabas said. In the end, at Motre Dame we all came togeth- er.” The women rewrote the MMSU record books at Motre Dame. Sophomore Lori Ter- zopoulos, along with juniors Robin Gillis, Suzanne Mik- lich and Jennifer Warner turned in top performances in the 200 and 400 freestyle relays. Warner broke her own pre- vious record in the 100-yard freestyle with a time of :56.50. Then, Terzopoulos sunk that mark with a record performance of her own. Her time for the 100 freestyle was :56.16. A combination of Gillis, Terzopoulos, Warner and Miklich estblished two rec- ords. The 200-yard freestyle re- cord fell to the group in a time of 1:43.40. Also, the re- lay team took more than three seconds off the old 400-yard freestyle mark. The record they established is now 3:45.47. Miklich also turned in one of her best performances in the 100-yard butterfly. I was close to qualifying,” Miklich said. This was prob- ably the best season I've ever had.” Arabas complained that the women's schedule wasn't as tough as he would have liked to have been. I wish there were more women's teams around here that could compete with us, Arabas said. Even if there were some teams that could compete with MMSU, after a 7-0 cam- paign they may not want to step forward. -------Steve Fisher-------- LEFT TO RIGHT Rob Laux. Chris Allen. Dale Brown.

Last summer the liMSU Bulldog cheerleading squad competed in the Universal Cheerleaders Association competition in Memphis, Tenn., bringing home two awards for their accomplish- ments. It marked the first time that a Division II school re- ceived any awards for cheer- leading in national competi- tion. NMSU was also the first Missouri state school to bring home an award. The Bulldogs took first place in the chant competition, fourth in the cheer competi- tion and were one of seven fi- nalists in the fight song com- petition. After the camp, the squad had an overwhelming desire to compete nationally. They practiced about 10 hours per week. We seriously thought about national competition, but only two teams could make it in Division II, senior Quentin Deck said. Cheering is a top priority for all of us, along with grades. All the time put in is definitely rewarding. It is like PREPARE rOK LANDING Monica Mueller, so., hopes mission control is ready for her end-over-end de- scent.

We treat it as a sport, se- nior Mike Adelstein said. ”We are 12 individuals who work together to form a har- monious unit. It (cheering) is well worth the time and ef- fort, knowing that you can participate and be a part of the school by helping pro- mote school spirit. Cheering is just like a sport. It takes a lot of timing, ability, flexibility and agility. It takes an athlete to do this. But the most important thing is that we have fun, senior Jerry Riggs said. To be the best, everything has to come under cheerleading. Senior captain Randy Erickson said, It takes a unique personality to be a cheerleader. During the summer the cheerleaders jogged, lifted weights, swam and did ae- robics. The female members of the team were required to maintain a weight of 120 pounds and the male mem- bers were required to mili- tary' press a minimum of 120 pounds. They tried out last spring before a panel of six to eight judges, who, in their evalua- tions were looking for ability, appearance, coordination, timing and balance. The Bulldog mascot this year is Spike, senior Tim Breck, who also attended the cheerleading camp in Memphis. To be an MMSU cheerlead- er requires that squad mem- bers maintain a 2.25 grade point average, and be full- time students. Cheerleading squad mem- bers for 1986-87 are; Tim Breck, Quentin Deck, Randy Erickson, Jerry Riggs, Mike Adelstein, Mark Peiffer, sophomore Kari flare, Chris- tine Coleman, sophomore Monica Mueller, senior Barb Brown, sophomore Julia Abel, senior Lesa Robinson and sophomore Matt ham- ick, a new edition to the squad this fall. Their adviser is Katie Steele. -----Jamie Knapp---------- RIDING OUT THE WAVE Tim Breck, sr.. hangs out on his dog house while Barb Brown, sr.. tries to awake the crowd.

Spike, the HMSU Bulldog mascot got a real facelift this year with a new $600 suit and a new person to play in that suit. He also got a do- ghouse and a pair of jams, which may have helped him get his new girlfriend. Senior Tim Breck, the per- son inside the suit, is pleased with his new new props and has added a few more, such as a bubble wand and a beach ring toss game. At the Universal Cheer- leaders Association College Spirit Camp in Memphis, Tenn., last summer, Breck learned about mascot char- acterization and put that knowledge to work. for example, during a game he points at a young girl (but doesn't let her see him) and gets the attention of those sitting around her. he then mimics her every move. In a few minutes. more and more people are watching Breck. Finally the young girl notices and starts to giggle. He mimics her giggling and she giggles even more. This is the only one of the gimmicks Breck uses at foot- ball games. Another one of his favorites is playing char- ades with small groups of fans. I point to a group of peo- ple, gesture for them to guess what I'm doing, and then go on with the charade. Sometimes they don't un- derstand right away, but they usually laugh when I'm done,” Breck said. The ju- nior high and high school kids are the best ones to do this with because they are the most apt to be a little cra- zy.” The younger fans espe- cially enjoy it when Breck blows bubbles with the bub- ble wand. It doesn't always work out when I blow bubbles because there is such a big space between the mouth of the bulldog and my mouth. A lot of the time it just sprays, which makes the kids laugh,” Breck explained. Breck could get embarras- sed easily doing what he does in front of the crowds, but he doesn't worry about it. With the suit on I become the bulldog. I think the new suit helped to develop the dog's character,” Breck said. I am anonymous in the suit and I feel it should be that way. Besides, I can have any expression on my face and no one knows what I am doing.” Breck might have hidden the expression on his face when he got engaged to his Bulldog girlfriend, played by sophomore Mary Anne Mi- norini, at the Homecoming game. The cheerleading squad had planned a wed- ding for the Southeast Mis- souri State University (Cape Girardeau) game, but plans were still tentative even days before the game at Busch stadium in St. Louis Hov. 1. Squad adviser Katie Steele and Breck had talked about having the wedding at a bas- ketball game if the plans for Busch Stadium fell through. Breck and Vonnie Hichols, director of Student Activi- ties, both said they think each year the mascot adds something new to the squad. The mascot is likely a per- manent fixture on the cheer- leading squad, even though each person who puts on the suit has a different personali- ty, reflected in the personali- ty of the dog. Breck has a unique per- sonality which really comes out in the bulldog's charac- ter,” Hichols said. -------Janet Waddell------- FURRY COUPLE Tim Breck. sr.. and Mary Anne Mlnorini, so., stroll cozily In the sun.

Photo by Val Hoeppner Mascots NO NEAR FALL.XSr The wrestling program at MMSU, which has been in ex- istence for 21 years, officially terminated its affiliation with the Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association confer- ence. The announcement was made last year by Athletic Di- rector Kenneth Gardner. Gardner said there were sev- eral reasons for the dismiss- al of the program. 'It takes four teams in the conference for it to be a con- ference sport. Rolla dropped wrestling, so it made sched- uling very, very difficult. Also, interest had deteriorat- ed a great deal since we first started wrestling, Gardner said. With only three teams in the MIAA, including us, scheduling had to be done out-of-state and the program didn't have that kind of bud- get. We couldn't live within the budget that was allocat- ed for wrestling. There was no fan interest, no fan sup- port, Gardner said. I don't think the school was putting that much money into the program. It didn't cost that much to keep it. They didn't take a lot of things into consideration. We could have been really good in the next year or so because we had eight out of 10 wrestlers coming back, sophomore Shawn Elling- son said. “I worked too hard to have it taken away from me. It's the reason I came to school here. I've lost a lot of time, effort and money due to the dropping of the sport, ju- nior Tim Tribble said. northwest Missouri State (Maryville) and Central Mis- souri State (Warrensburg) are now the only MIAA schools with wrestling pro- grams. Wrestling, an intercolle- giate sport at rtMSU since the 1965-66 season, is the sec- ond sport Gardner has had to drop. The first was wom- en's feld hockey. Gardner said it's hard to predict if wrestling will ever be installed back at MMSU. Former MMSU Head Wres- tling Coach Don Frazier was relieved of his duties by the University after a year-end- ing controversy. Frazier sup- plied alcohol to minors on the wrestling team as they were returning from the MIAA conference meet. Fra- zier was unavailable for com- ment. Gardner said the incident and the termination of the program were unrelated. It had nothing to do with the decision, not as far as I was concerned. I recom- mended that he be relieved of his position way before we dropped the sport, Gardner said. The MMSU team last sea- son compiled a 5-10 dual re- cord and finished fourth in the MIAA Tournament. The Dogs' bright spots were the breaking of two school rec- ords, most falls (54) and escapes in a single season. With the loss of the pro- gram came the loss of Dave McLaughlin. McLaughlin, a freshman sensation for the Bulldogs last season, trans- ferred to William Penn Col- lege (Oskaloosa, Iowa). He compiled a 28-7 record and earned more victories than any other freshman wrestler in MMSU history. His 28 wins were the second highest on the Bulldog all-time single season record chart. The 158-pounder finished third at the 1986 national Colle- giate Athletic Association Di- vision II Midwest Regional Championships. Gardner said there are no other intercollegiate sports programs at HMSU that are in jeopardy of being dropped. I don't see any, but it's harder to predict something like that. I don't however, foresee it. -------Jamie Knapp-------- Sports 150 Wrestling ThE LAST TALL?

ECHO staff photo TAKING AIM shooters on ■ all season Concentration and hard work are vitally important to being successful in any sport. However, for this sport it is a must. It requires preci- sion, accuracy and total con- centration. The sport is rifle shooting, and it has been in existence here at HMSU since 1969. Although the HMSU team had only four matches this year, it took a lot of hard work and time. The team practiced two hours a day, three days a week. Their hard work paid off, as it showed in their 3-1 record. Their only loss came at the hands of the University of Missouri (Rolla) one of the prominent rifle-shooting teams in the nation. HMSU also faced the University of Missouri (Columbia), West- ern Illinois (Macomb) and Kemper Military School (Booneville). The season went well. Hot as good as I'd like for it to have been, but we only lost once so I can't com- plain, Coach Sergeant Her- bert Mitchell said. When you think of the rifle team, do you think sport or hobby? It's probably viewed as a hobby more. It may be due to the fact that not many peo- ple know we have competi- tion shooting,” sophomore Scott Voelkel said. At the conclusion of the season, the team journeyed to Hew Orleans to participate in the Mardi Qras Match (Feb. 27-28) where they competed with 52 other schools across the nation, including Rolla and South- west Missouri State (Spring- field). Before the season, tryouts were held to determine the five shooters that would be shooting this season. We gave them a weapon and showed them the appro- priate position. Then they shot at targets and afterward we looked them over and picked the five best out of the 25 that participated. We only needed five for a team, so we called those people and invited them back for an- other tryout, Mitchell said. The tryouts weren't too bad. I had shot in competi- tion before in high school, but basically they gave me the equipment, showed me how to put the equipment on the weapon and I fired, se- nior assistant captain Brad Snow said.

The concentration level is the hardest part of shoot- ing. It takes a lot of concen- tration and a lot of muscle control. Actually, what it takes is a lot of discipline, but the main part is to have fun, Snow said. Mitchell said rifle shooting is becoming well known to people all over the country. People in every state have rifle teams competing in a whole lot of universities. So it's a widely-known, rec- ognized sport. They have it in the Olympics. If our guys shoot good enough they can go to the Olympics.

This is everyday reality for the people on the sidelines, the guy or gal on the very end of the bench, the Mr. and Ms. “Fix It” behind the scenes. Mo, they're not wear- ing any white uniforms or red crosses, they're just plain- clothed people there when the athletes need them most. The trainer s job just may be the most demandingjob on and off the courts and fields. The pre-practice tap- ing, the rehabilitation, the care and treatment of injur- ies, are just a few of the end- less tasks a trainer performs. “Taping is the first learned and the easiest of the jobs we do. Training is much har- der than just tapping ankles,” senior Kathy Jobe said. MMSU has eight student athletic trainers on staff to assist Mead Trainer Clinton Thompson. Thompson just accepted his position at MMSU last year and is completing his first full year as the master of injury care for the University. Me said he relies a great deal on his staff. The staff is made up of the following people: graduate-student Dave Ghena, senior Kathy Jobe, juniors Joel Cagle and Amy Head, sophomores Marc Rice and Brian Azinger, along with freshmen Marla Thomas and Kelli Pixler. MMSU is the fourth univer- sity for which Thompson has been trainer. Me started 24 years ago as a student train- er at the University of Texas (Austin) and has since been trainer for Michigan State University (East Lansing) as well as Colorado State University (Fort Collins). Thompson also did private work while in Michigan. Sports JlDZ Trainers He has worked with such athletes as “Bubba” Smith, Steve Garvey and “Magic” Johnson to name just a few. I've enjoyed everywhere I've been,” Thompson said. “Each place has a different personality.” He added that coming from a Big Ten conference school to a Division II school makes the demands of his job no less. Thompson praises his staff and especially his “right-hand man,” which is actually a right-hand wom- an, Jobe. This student staff works just as hard as any other staff I've worked with,” Thomp- son said. I depend so much on Jobe because of her ex- perience.” It seems that most of the student trainers became in- terested in doing the job from personal injury experi- ences in their own athletic careers. I played football, basket- ball and baseball in high school and dislocated my collar bone five times,” Ghena said. 1 visited a sports medicine clinic and became interested.” Jobe and Cagle both have suffered knee injuries in their athletic careers. Jobe was impressed by her train- er; however, Cagle had no assistance. 1 got interested because I had no one to work with me,” Cagle said. After college each student trainer has different plans. Jobe plans to stay on in Divi- sion II and continue her practice. Cagle said, I hope to go on to a major college or maybe professional foot- ball.” Ghena hopes to start his own sports medicine clinic. Most of a trainer s time is spent doing their many jobs. Let us not forget that the staff members are also students. They have classes and also make the long roadtrips with the teams. It takes up every bit of so- cial life,” Jobe said. I've even gotten calls in the mid- dle of the night about injur- ies.” Injuries differ from sport to sport, from a blister, to a dis- located knee, even injuries resulting in death. Thomp- son said he has seen an ath- lete die from a heat stroke. Jobe said football and wrestling are the sports in which she has seen the most injuries in, but the worst she ever dealt with came in soc- cer. “A dislocated and broken ankle all at the same time is what I remember the most, in that instance we could re- ally only treat for shock and have the athlete ready for the ambulance,” Jobe said. The job is not glamorous. Monetheless, trainers deal with one of the most amaz- ing complexities known to man, the athletic body. --------Steve Fisher------- Kathy Jobe, sr.

Turner hit a lofty .363, followed by junior rightfielder Don Coons, at .341, and senior leftfielder Kevin Paulson, at .304. Senior Rich Qrobelny, topped the Bulldog pitching staff with a 1.88 eamed-run average and freshman Mike Schimmel led in wins with five. Yet the Bulldogs finished the season below the .500 mark with a 14-15 record overall and 5-7 in the Mis- souri Intercollegiate Athletic Association conference, good for third place in the northern Division. There were many reasons why the Bulldogs couldn't get over the .500 mark. I thought the pitching was go- ing to be better,” Head Coach Sam Nugent, said. It was disappointing. If our pitching would have been good, we would've had a good season. Some of our veteran pitchers had bad years. Several -experienced players disagree, saying that coaching is one of the main reasons why the program has never lived up to expec- tations. In Nugent's 20 years as head coach, four have produced winning seasons. Junior pitcher Matt Winter thought last year would be different than previous years. Rich Grobelny. sr. ”1 thought we had a shot at being over .500. We had a lot of veterans returning and a strong pitching staff com- ing back. I expected to make the playoffs. You could say it was a disappointing sea- son,” Winter said. I thought we had a shot at a playoff berth. The league was not that strong, Nugent said. In the past 10 years the Northern Division of the MIAA conference has been dominated by Central Mis- souri State University. (Warrensburg) and North- west Missouri State Univer- sity (Maryville). They have dominated for so long because they have bigger budgets so they can get better ballplayers, plus they get great support from their athletic departments, Winter said. The Bulldogs began the season with a spring break trip to Arkansas, where they found themselves playing outdoors for the first time all season and finishing with a 1-5 roe£ord. That first ballgame down south was the first time we played outside, Nugent said. We played good ball- clubs down there, the coach added. After the southern trip we had a good season. After the Arkansas trip and a doubleheader sweep at the hands of the University of Missouri-Columbia, the Bull- dogs went 13-8. I was disappointed with the start of the season, but happy with the rest of the year. We came back and turned it into a pretty decent year, Coons said. The Bulldogs rebounded from their slow start by win- ning 13 of their last 19 games. Nugent attributed the younger players. We stuck together and got more out of ourselves, Turner said. “Last year's team was the best I ever played on as far as morale and positive atti- tude, in my two years here, Paulson said. The seasoned veterans said that the blend between themselves and the new- comers was part of the rea- son for the success of the team. ”We had a pretty good rap- port with the newcomers, senior Ned Gillette said. Everybody got along. It was fun to go out and play ball,” Turner added. the late-season success to better play in all phases of the game and a couple of line-up changes. “The pitchers became more confident, Paulson said. Pitching is the key to any successful winning base- ball team and our s was good but didn't meet up to winning standards at times. We had a lot of experienced pitchers, and at times they pitched well, but we couldn't get a rotation in there that could consistently win. Also contributing to the turnaround was morale. “I think that's why we started winning.

Con- stantly marred with gloom, the entire 1986-87 men's basketball season served as the worst nightmare for the Bulldogs, which they found themselves never waking from. Two horrendous losing streaks led to the worst re- cord in the history of HMSU basketball. They finished in the cellar of the Missouri In- tercollegiate Athletic Associ- ation conference, won only three games all year (all against HAIA opponents), broke the school record for consecutive defeats (12) and then almost broke that mark, the saving grace being the end of the season, yet the team still had an optimis- tic outlook despite the los- ing skids. It was a miserable sea- son. But the players didn't quit, and our final game was a case in point (Southeast Missouri State, Cape Girar- deau, beat MMSU, 89-72). We played our hearts out and were in that game until the last couple of minutes,'' head Coach Willard Sims said. It seemed like everybody looked forward to all the games and wanted to win, but it just didn't happen. I couldn't see anybody not looking forward to the games,'' senior Erik Hansen said. Shortly after the season got underway last October, a sign of things to come occu- red. Returning senior and leading scorer Steve Liford suffered a disc injury in his back and was originally scheduled to miss half the season. However, after sur- gery was completed, it was learned that he would be withheld from competition for the entire year. The loss of Liford put too much pressure on our re- turning players and took away a strong outside shoot- ing threat. Liford's loss made other personnel play different roles, and we played freshmen more often because we had to, not be- cause we wanted to play them more, Sims said. It was hard sitting there and watching. I could have helped the team, but I don't think they would have been much better with me be- cause they didn't have a true point guard. But I think we could have finished at least .500, Liford said. With only three returning players, the Bulldogs started their season on somewhat of a high note, posting a 2-1 re- cord. After that, the downhill ride began, as they dropped 12 consecutive games. After snapping that streak, they worked on another, reeling off 11 successive losses in losing 23 of their last 24. Although Sims' team fin- ished at the bottom of the MIAA and had a 3-24 overall mark, there were some bright spots to this dismal campaign. The performances of ju- nior forward Dan Storck and Hansen, the top two scorers and rebounders on the team, carried them through- out the season. Hansen, led the conference in reboun- ding (9.5) and Storck scored in double figures in all but one game, nevertheless, it was a lack of leadership and talent that made this season a bleek one. The talent all-round was not as good as other teams in the conference. The chemistry was not right. We didn't have the depth. We were a young team with a lot of inexperienced freshmen and they had tojump right in there and do the job. It's hard to adjust from high school to college basketball so fast, Storck said. I came here to play, and the jump ended up being a big one. In college the players are bigger, quicker and stronger. In high school you would see a good player every once in while. Here, they're on the court every night, freshman Dennis Derrieux said. When the Bulldogs ended their first losing streak by de- feating Southwest Baptist, it looked as though the team's morale might change. Storck said that game had a lot to do with the outcome of the season. When we beat Southwest Baptist, it raised our morale. After beating them we thought we could turn things around, but when we lost the next game our morale start- ed to lower again. Having a season like this can hinder the Dogs' chances of getting excep- tional players. The Bulldogs' problem this year was that they had no floor leader, no- body to take control at the end of a game, plus they didn't have a true point guard. We didn't get leadership from our upperclassmen, either. Hot having a true point guard to lead us really hurt, Sims said. Hot having a true point guard really hurt us this year. If we can recruit the point guard we need, we re going to be really tough next year. The new players we had this year will know what to expect in the conference. This season was just a fluke, Liford said. HMSU will lose only Han- sen from this year's squad, so Sims will have plenty of experience to work with. The return of Liford and Storck and with some good recruit- ing, the Bulldogs could be a major force to reckon with in the MIAA next season. ------Jamie Knapp--------- rROMT ROW Mike Arnold.

In the 1983-84 season, when Head Coach Terry Parrish first took over the team, the Lady Bulldogs went 5-20. But the team stuck togeth- er, gained experience and ended up with a 12-13 record last season, the highest number of victories since 1981-82. Senior Jeanette eleven credits the improvement of the team to experience. All four years of us (the four starters) together has really helped,” eleven, the teams leading scorer (17 ppg), said. Parrish credited the improvement to experience and time. It takes a while to build a program. It takes a while to find success and I think women s basketball is again enjoyable at Northeast,” Parrish said. The team's record see- sawed back and forth during the season. The only lengthy streak came at the end of the season, when the Lady Dogs dropped the final five games of the year. A different perspective can be brought into the women s season. The insight of an in- dividual who watches every game, never playing but able to see trends, changes and emotions fluctuate. Freshman manager Jenni- fer Sturm said she sensed a down note at the end of the season, Toward the end we dragged a little. The loss to Northwest really hurt be- cause of the playoffs. At home the team's record was 7-4. On the road the tables were turned, a record of 5-9 proving to be the Achfi- le's heel. Individually, the ladies set a few records, eleven, who was the team's leading scor- er in 16 of its 25 games, set school records for highest single season free-throw per- centage (.854) and highest career free-throw accuracy (.800). In addition to those two records, eleven hit in double figures for 20 of the 25 games. Defensively, junior Dawn Lubbert racked up 30 blocked shots, easily beat- ing the school record of 20. The Missouri Intercolle- giate Athletic Association also recognized the efforts of the women, naming eleven to the second team all-con- ference and giving senior Sandra Fitzpatrick honor- able mention. But the experience that brought on NMSU's success will be leaving. Four of the five starters, eleven, Fitzpa- trick, Tami Billerbeck and Jackie Thornburg, are grad- uating seniors. This has left some big holes to fill for next year. We need everything for next year, Parrish said, guards, forwards and cen- ters, particularly a shooting forward and a point guard.” Why the worries? The four players leaving accounted for 54 percent of the team's total offense and 43 percent of its total rebounding. Also, on the average, the four sen- iors played an average of 28 minutes a game. Much of the offense has left. The experience on the court is gone. With 12 wins this season and four starters to replace, Parrish faces another re- building year. This story has been told to her before, and each time her teams have responded. As the old saying goes, The names and faces change but the results keep getting better, (well, it goes something like that). ---------Steve Ward-------- SPLITTING HER DEFENDERS Tami Billerbeck, sr., drives the lane for a quick hoop against northwest Missouri.

First-year Coach Roberto Azcui didn't have much ex- perience to work with. The only returnee for the Bull- dogs from an 8-10 team in 1985 was senior Kevin Heath. However, several promising freshmen and a deadly brother combination proved to be the start of something big for the Bull- dog netters in 1986. Coming into the season with a relatively young and inexperienced team, our goals were not stretched that far, Azcui said. Things changed as the Bulldogs got further along into the season and started gaining confidence. “We set our sights on a conference championship and hopefully placing some- body in nationals, Azcui said. That somebody was se- nior Claes Engell, who, at Ho. 1 singles guided the Bull- dogs to their successful sea- son. Egnell was dominating throughout the entire sea- son, losing only four matches while winning 23, to qualify for the national Col- legiate Athletic Association Division II national tourna- ment. My serve was consistent the whole season, plus I was a senior and gained much experience, Egnell said of his masterful season. He had a really great sea- son, one of the best records at Ho. 1 singles in school his- tory, Azcui said. Indeed, Egnell was a big plus for the Bulldogs. Mow- Sports I DU Men s Tennis ever, their lack of experience hurt them in their quest for a conference title. Taking the role as a team of destiny, the Bulldogs gave a valiant effort in trying to capture the con- ference crown. It came down to the final doubles match. HMSU was unable to come out victorious, thus giving Southeast Missouri State University (Cape Girardeau) the Final advantage, and the title, 36-34. We did pretty good con- sidering we were a young and inexperienced team. I think we had the potential, but lack of experience hurt us, Egnell said. We had three conference champions and came so close with such a young team, so we should be pleased, freshman Eric Fleming said. If it is any consolation, the Bulldogs had a tremendous season. They had a tough schedule, facing 10 Division I teams. Five of their six losses came at the hands of Division I schools. Teams such as Iowa State, Bradley and Southwest Mis- souri handed the squad ear- ly losses. But after a loss to Arkansas State the Dogs did not lose again until the bitter disappoint at the conference tournament. Those loses did not side- track the team as it derailed Division I opponents north- ern Iowa, Western Illinois, Drake and Missouri. Toward the end of the sea- son the Dogs won the Jeffer- son Junior College Tourna- ment by beating Jefferson JC, William Jewell and UHI for the tourney title. The other, to conference champion SEMO during the regular season. It was a very good sea- son, Fleming said. We beat some good Division I teams. We beat some very diffi- cult Division I teams. That's pretty good considering our inexperience, junior Mike Egnell, Claes' brother and Ho. 2 singles player said. Engnell had just as im- pressive a season as his brother, going 21-5 and win- ning a conference champi- onship at Ho. 2 singles. The brother duo combined for a 10-2 doubles record. Mike played excellent tennis the entire season. He was a very consistent performer, Azcui said. With every good team comesa balanced line-up. At Ho. 6 singles, freshman Mark Caldwell had a remarkable season, especially for having so little experience. Hot only did he notch a 17-7 record, but won a conference cham- pionship as well. I was happy with my per- formance, Caldwell said. I didn't know what to expect. I didn't have experience go- ing into conference. Azcui said about his fresh- man phenom, He came through for us in the Ho. 6 position. I could always count on him scoring a point for us. The Bulldogs came into the season just looking for respectability. Predicted to Finish in the middle of the pack in the MIAA, the second place performance in the conference meet climaxed a truly successful season. I never expected to do this well and come so close to winning a conference championship with such a young team, Azcui said. The team definitely met ex- pectations. Losing five of their top six players from the previous year, nobody expected the Bulldogs to accomplish so much, but indeed, they were a team of destiny. ----- Jamie Knapp -------- GLIDE AMD SLIDE Claes Egnell.

With these successes. Coach Sharon LaRue was named the Mis- souri Intercollegiate Athletic Association Coach of the Year. In the conference tourna- ment April 25-26, HMSU dominated the doubles; sen- iors Lori Davis and Holly Bur- ton won at the Ho. 1 doubles spot. Senior Kanista Zuniga and freshman Tricia Cope were the Ho. 2 doubles champions. Freshmen Liz Kucheraand Kelli Ritter took the title at the Ho. 3 position. Burton also triumphed by winning the conference title at the Ho. 1 singles spot. This put her season record at 12-8 and her career record at 34-23. I really did expect a good season,” LaRue said. Of course, you never know what new people the other teams will have, but I knew before the season we'd be a strong team.” The teams's conference successes at all stages, either singles or doubles, al- lowed every member to be- come a conference cham- pion. Cope said the team's strength was in its competi- tive attitudes and experi- enced players. Of the top six players, four were seniors. Cope said she learned a lot about working together from watching and working with the older players. We really worked as a team. Over the season I learned to do this. In high school, tennis was more of an individual sport. At north- east, it is a team sport,” Cope said. In regular-season play, the Lady Bulldogs went 12-7; all seven losses were to Divi- sion I or l-AA schools (HMSU is a Division II, smaller, school). LaRue thought playing bigger schools was to the team's advantage. We played a lot of Divi- sion I schools, which is something we haven't done in the past. It was a tough schedule, but I think it pre- pared us mentally to dig in at conference,” LaRue said. Because 1987 will be a re- building year for the team, LaRue said they will not be playing the same type of schedule. The only two Divi- sion I schools the team will play are Southwest Missouri State University (Springfield) and Oklahoma City Univer- sity (Okla.). The Lady Bull- dogs will play the SMSU ju- nior varsity, not the varsity team. The four seniors that were in the top six positions dur- ing the 1986 season will be gone, including Davis, Bur- ton, Zuniga and Cindy Streb. However, senior Julie Pri- chard can play one more year and is expected to be back along with Cope, Kuch- era and freshmen Jennifer Poe and Kelli Ritter. Cope said because the team will have a majority of young players, practice ses- sions will probably revolve around improving basics. To prepare for this sea- son we ll probably be spend- ing more time on strategy and the fundamentals of the game. This season we didn't have to do that,” LaRue said. With their success coming in pairs the coaching will also serve a double function, teaching them two at a time. Sports 162 Women s Tennis AIMING HIGH Lori Davis, sr..

Len Bias, the University of Maryland basketball great, passed three physicals given by the Boston Celtics', new York Knicks', and Golden State Warriors' organiza- tions. About 40 hours after he was drafted by the Celtics he died of cocaine intoxica- tion. Don Rodgers, the All-Pro defensive back of the Cleve- land Browns, had only the fu- ture to look forward to. Rod- gers also died from the recreational” use of co- caine — the day before he was to be married. University of Oklahoma standout Brian Bosworth was also affected by drugs, but in a different manner. Bo- sworth failed to pass a man- datory test before the Or- ange Bowl, traces of anabol- ic steroids were found in his system. Because of this The Boz,” a two-time recipient of the Butkis Award for the na- tion's best linebacker, was not allowed to play in the new Year's Day bowl game. These events stirred up the fact that if Bosworth were tested and found to have marijuana in his system he would have been eligible to play under NCAA rules. Steroids, a legal drug in our society prevented his play, but marijuana, an ille- gal drug, would not have hal- ted his presence on the field. The drug related deaths of Bias, Rodgers, and the Bo- sworth incident brought forth a lot of controversy re- garding drug usage among athletes, both on the ama- teur and professional levels. Athletic franchises and university athletic depart- ments around the country have adopted drug testing to prevent such problems from occurring. But is this stop- ping the use? Are the real problems being detected? Beginning with football this past fall, and men's and women's basketball, NMSU has adopted their own drug test for each respective sport. Because of the cost of the test, $67 per person, only these sports participated. It is expected that every ath- lete involved in a varsity sport in the 1987-1988 school year will be required to take the drug test. Mandatory drug testing is required only if a team parti- cipates in post-season play. Athletes are tested for stimulants and street drugs such as cocaine, marijuana, heroin and speed; along with diuretics (weight loss drugs) and steroids. Our goal is to help the student athlete, not to pun- ish them,” Athletic Director Ken Gardner said. The test was Gardner's own idea. Gardner said if nothing else it would give the athletes in these sports a somewhat clean name, as far as drug use is concerned. Len Bate Sports 164 Drug Testing ■ three sports probe athletes Gardner said he called other schools around the country for ideas about tes- ting. I wanted to get all the guidelines I could.” Two collegues Gardner called for advice were Wake Forrest University (Winston- Salem, N.C.), which Gardner said he believed tested the entire student body and Southeast Missouri State University (Cape Girardeau) which began testing last year. The athletes are tested during their preseason physicals. A urine sample is taken and analyzed at KCOM (Kirksville College of Osteo- pathic Medicine) for the street drugs while a special test for steroids is done at a laboratory in Indianapolis. If an athlete tests positive, her or she is sent through counseling with a drug abuse counselor, the trainer and the athletic director. Then the athlete is retested 90 days later. If they test pos- itive again, they are then sus- pended from their team for the remainder of the season. They are also given the op- portunity to make the team the following year provided they pass the test. But are drugs a problem among NMSU athletes? We thought maybe we had some marijuana problems,” Gard- ner said. We had a suspect last year, asked him to take a test but it wasn't manda- tory.” Athletics are an enter- taining part of college. It comes with the territory,” Head Football Coach Jack Ball said. Athletes are more than the average students.” Of the athletes tested the majority were offended that only their sports were being tested, and even if drugs were being used by athletes, why would they be different than any other student. I think they should have it, but for everybody,” junior defensive back Tim Fine said. I don't think most people stereotype athletes as drug- takers,” sophomore Baron Olden said. Athletics are such a big part of college, be- cause of the representation is much more wide spread, that it creates problems.” Clinton Thompson, who is beginning his second full year as trainer at NMSU, said he would like to see drug testing become mandatory for all Missouri Intercolle- giate Athletic Association schools. Athletes who came to practice high or drunk are a high risk,” Thompson said. He said in his years as a trainer he has seen athletes do this. The most abused drug, without a doubt, is alcohol,” Thompson said. Just how accurate is a drug test? It depends on wno exam- ines the sample,” Thomp- son said. In some cases samples are tested up to three times, so that a techni- cian can be certain.” All the athletes are ob- served, to make sure every- one is tested with their own samples because a sample could be substituted. Just how long will it take before athletics and drugs no longer run hand in hand? Testing should not and prob- ably will not improve the quality of athletics, however it may stop an athlete from using drugs before death does. If it helps one person, it is helping,” Men's Basket- ball Coach Willard Sims said. --------Steve Fisher ------- STRAIGHT TO THE POINT By us- ing this special print, the women s identity has not been revealed.

Photo by Matt Blotevogel Sports 165 Drug Testing SIMILAR FEETS running woes against foes Two relatively young track teams had a rough route to run this past spring. The nMSU men's and women's track squads had disappointing showings in the conference meets; both indoor and outdoor. The men finished fourth, roof or no roof. As for the women, a third-place showing came in- door and a fifth-place effort came in the outdoor meet. The man were led by se- nior sprinter Chuck Sim- mons, who was a key scorer as a relay man and open- event runner, he was a main- stay in the 400 meter relay which, along with senior Dave Pinkerton, sophomore Rodney Scott and freshman Kelly Marsengill, just missed the 41.7 NCAA Division II na- tional qualifying time by run- ning a 42.17. We didn't have a meet where we got all the handoffs perfect. That probably was the reason we didn't quali- fy,” Pinkerton said. Another strong leg on the squad was senior hurdler Dave Paddock, who finished second at the conference meet in the 110 meter high hurdles. One pleasant surprise for Head Coach Ed Schneider was freshman decathlete Steve Danner, who placed fourth at conference. Sports 166 Track We had some disappoint- ments but he (Danner) should really become an as- set for us. He has the poten- tial to move up,” Schneider said. Danner said the weight events in the decathlon were the weakest part of his ten- stage sport. He said he prob- ably lost hundreds of points in those events. Most of the strength came from the young middle-dis- tance runners. With the ex- ception of the long jump the field events showed a sub- stantial weakness. Our field events weren't particularly strong. We were very weak in the shot and discus,” Schneider said. The women's season could almost be a mirror of what took place with their male counterparts. I was disappointed we didn't compete better in the outdoor season,” Head Coach John Cochrane said. NMSU was led by senior Teri Gipple who was in- volved in some of the best performances of the year, in- cluding the heptathlon. Ju- nior distance runner, Cheryl Mitchell, was also in on the act by breaking three school records. Mitchell's records includ- ed a 10:25.81 time for the 3,000 meters, 17:39.6 in the 5.000 meter run and a 36:31.9 clocking in the 10.000 meters. Mitchell placed second in both the 5.000 and 10,000 at the con- ference meet. I could feel it when I was running. I knew I was going at a good pace each time I broke a record. When we re finished running we always go over and meet with the coach, that's when I found out. I didn't know it while I was running because, when I run, I am oblivious to the clock,” Mitchell said. After breaking those marks, Mitchell's feelings are good ones but they probably won't be there too long ' she joked. As a junior who broke the records she may be the senior who breaks them again. The women, like their male running mates, proved to be strong in the middle and long-distance events. But, also like the men, both squads really never seemed to catch their second wind. MAKING ms MOVE Ron Barnett, sr., is in the midst of a major over- haul, surpassing the pack. Barnett was a middle to long-distance run- ner, both indoors and outdoors.

By way of hobby, profession or need, the names of Amnesty international, the Society of Profes- sional Journalists and Alpha Phi Sigma help com- prise a list of organizations which stands currently at more than 160 in number. The recipients of our togetherness and leader- ship are spread wide throughout many spec- trums. A blood drive for the Red Cross, a fund-raiser for United Cerebral Palsy and The American Heart Association's awareness days all gained support and momentum from many campus groups. Joining an organization is an individual choice. Individuality is not lost once on the inside, but strengthened and bonded with other individuals to work in a long chain of success. A chain of this size is susceptible to weakness. At NMSU not a single link is willing to yield.

Ever since the fraternity re- ceived a charter in March, 1979, they've juggled their residences all over town. Mow, with the help of ATO alumnus Kevin Flynn, the fraternity owns its own house for the first time. Flynn offered to place a down payment for the loan of the house. The fraternity's alumni association then planned to buy the house and sell it to the ATO House Corporation, which in turn planned to charge the local chapter rent and give them an allowance to maintain the house. ATO moved out of their last rented location, 516 E. Jefferson, in January and settled in at 312 S. Mulanix. ATO President, senior Jim Hurst said the fraternity was relieved with the change. Everyone agreed (before we bought the new house) that we weren't going to live there anymore, he said. The old house was run down,” junior Robert Horton said. The floors were really bad. Everytime you walked across them, it felt like the house shook. The new house is very nice and has brought a lot of excitement for us.” Hurst said th'e new home features a larger basement, new carpeting, and a more sound structure. The fraternity eventually plans to install another bath- room downstairs, put on a new roof and build an addi- tional room. ----- Helen Turnbull ------- inTCRI'KATERMITY COUNCIL Trout Row: Cdw-aitf Coil, present John Witte. second Vice iwcsHtcnt in Charge of rush: llollkc Clark. secretary.

Though slavery was abolished more than 120 years ago, it ap- peared often on campus, as a fundraiser. The Pi Kap lil' sisses need- ed to make a lot of money in a short amount of time. By holding a slave auction, the members accomplished this while doing something dif- ferent than the average bake sale, even though five auc- tions had already been held that month in Missouri Hall.

For the most part, these parties have left sentimental memories in the minds of many Greeks. But, some memories were not so great. It was my freshman year at our Christmas formal,” senior Christy Hajek, of Del- ta Zeta sorority said. The guy I took asked if 1 could bring a sister of mine to date a friend of his. Both guys ig- nored us all evening and got really drunk. Then, he got into a big fight, and we had to take them home. They wanted to come up to our dorm rooms and it was late. I was written up and 1 was not a happy person.” It was our fall party my freshman year,” junior Al- pha Sigma Alpha member Angie Luby said. I took a date that was very stuck on himself. He had more fun with himself at the party than with me.” Sometimes it was just a bad day for a date party. Ev- erything seemed to go wrong. It was spring formal — first of all we were asked to leave the place. Then I fell asleep under a sunlamp and fried my skin. And then, 1 was promised to a guy and we broke up that night. It was not a good day to say the least,” said senior Sigma Kappa member Marie Gow- en. There was probably only one thing worse than going to a date party with the worst date. That was, BEING the worst date, as junior Phi Kappa Theta member Greg Jameson explains. I WAS the worst date. It was Halloween — I was a lit- tle drunk, dancing on tables, making a fool out of myself. Then I picked up another girl dressed as Boy George. I fil- led a squirt gun with beer and squirted everyone. I re- ally made my date mad,” he said. ----- Helen Turnbull ----- LAMBDA CW ALPHA rront Row: uny Thorn � , president: Troy Cox. vice president; Toro Magnam. secretary; Mark Schneider, treasurer.

Anyone traveling from Lancaster to Kirksville on Highway 6 that day couldn't help but slow down and take a second look ... or maybe even a third! Sig Taus decided to have a fund raiser unlike any oth- er. They not only wanted to make money but also draw attention to United Cerebral Palsy. A few ideas were tos- sed around until someone suggested walking from Lan- caster to Kirksville in boxer shorts, creating the first From Here to There in Un- derwear.” The fraternity planned to make the trek an annual event and to begin it at differ- ent locations each time. When we brought the idea up, the UCP was ecstatic about it,” junior Eric Chur- chwell, Sig Tau member, said. Many establishments in Kirksville were also eager to help. Robertson Chevrolet provided transportation to Lancaster and Golden Eagle Distributors printed posters advertising the walk free of charge. Paglias, Deli Works and Taco Bell were other businesses who helped with the event. McDonalds and Pepsi also provided free food and drinks for those who walked. The 22 mile walk began at 9:00 a.m. and took seven and a half hours with one break at a roadside stop in Greentop for lunch. Many of the fraternity members wore their boxer shorts over sweats because of the cold weather that day. At 4:30, 58 tired Sig Tau's arrived at their fra- ternity house, mission accomplished. The fraternity raised $2,500 from various sponsors, both individ- uals and local busi- nesses. ------Janice Pratt ----- SIGMA TAU GAMMA rront Row: Tony Kasha. president: Pat McAfee. vkc presidentofeduca Hon: Bob McLaughlin. vice president of management; Roger walgren. vice president of member- ship.

The Greek Life Office was established in the summer of 1986 be- cause of the need for a cen- tral location for Greek orga- nizations. During the 1985-1986 school year, junior Beth Cunningham, Panhellenic vice president in charge of rush, and junior Robert Mor- ton, Interfatemity Council vice president in charge of rush, presented the idea to Dean of Students Terry Smith, who provided funds for the office and two part- time student workers. The Greek Life Office was located in the Ryle Mall foyer. Melody Marcantonio, assis- tant Panhellenic adviser, and Morton, assistant IFC ad- viser, were hired to work in the office on a part-time ba- sis during the year. ' The very fact that there are student staff members is very important, Vonnie Michols, director of student activities, said. We can now be engaged in long-range ac- tivities instead of just a very' minimum short-range activi- ties. It's a central place on campus for Greeks to be able to gather information, Marcantonio said. It has es- tablished an open line of communication between the IFC and Panhellenic. The IFC and Panhellenic Council held meetings at the Greek Life Office. People in- terested in the Greek system could go through the office to receive information on Greek policies, especially those dealing with academic regulations for Greeks. This was a year of trial and error for the office and it started off slowly. Activity picked up second semester, however, Marcantonio said there were probably 500 stu- dents through the office in Phi SIGMA KAPPA Tront Row: Russ Kowbottom president. Dave Whelan. treasurer.

The Alpha Sigma Alpha sorority, along with several other sororities and fraterni- ties, has used the Greek Life Office on several occas- sions. We used it as an informa- tion center. It is used as a go- between for the panhellenic council and the Alpha's, se- nior Rita Howdeshell said. We used it recently to co- ordinate activities for Greek Week, junior Jacque Krum- rey said. She agreed with Howdeshell and called the Greek Life Office an informa- tion center. Previously, rush activities had been conducted at vari- ous areas throughout cam- pus. Rush sign-up had to be held at the Student Union Building, the residence halls and in the Student Activities Office. The Greek Life Office pro- vided grades for rushing and pledging. Plus, they had in- formation about all of the in- dividual sororities and fra- ternities. “There are also files with information about where you can get banners and sweatshirts, Marcanto- nio said. The Greek Life Office was also created to serve many other purposes. The Greek Development Conference was run through the office. It was also the location of the Panhellenic and the IFC Ex- ecutive Board meetings. As Greeks were becoming more prevalent on campus, approximately 17 percent of the student body was Greek, the Greek Life Office contin- ued to grow and provide many valuable services. ---- Ruth Scherich ------ PHI KAPPA THETA rront Row: Randy Bailey. president; Gary Genenbachcr.

Very possibly the root of the problem is the popula- tion of blacks on the cam- pus. There isn't a large num- ber and therefore a lack of awareness has been creat- ed ' David Clithero, Interfra- temity Council adviser, said. For the first time, the sev- en black Greek organiza- tions sponsored a Black Greek Awareness Week to show the campus their pride and heritage. The week was directed to- ward better awareness of black Greeks on campus and also to let people know that black Greeks exist. It brought attention to black fraternities and sorori- ties and it let the freshmen class know that there are black fraternities and sorori- ties existing,” Emest Green ill, president of Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity said. The week consisted of a sing-a-long, a symposium, skating party and a free pic- nic, which brought the black Greeks together. Another first for black Greeks is the national Pan- hellenic Council which is in the process of being chart- ered. The national Panhel- lenic Council was formed in 1930 to provide a unified voice of the predominantly black Greek organizations. The nPHC will cater more to black Greeks' needs. Cer- tain Interfraternity Council things don't pertain to us, Green said. The Panhellenic Council can not serve all the needs of the three black sororities either. The week went over very well. We didn't get publicity and we worked with limited funds, but for the most part we got good feedback, Tony Edwards, president of the local chapter of the MPMC said. ALPHA ANGELS rroni Kcm.

Phi Kappa Tau, has attracted members who overwhelm- ingly claim they chose the organization because it has a very new approach to the Greek way of life. It seems that many of the members have shared the same anti-Greek attitude be- fore experiencing the Phi Kappa Tau organization. I've always been anti- Greek. I met some of the Phi Taus and they were actually friends — they shared a brotherhood bond. They weren't shallow, which was a feeling I had received at oth- er rush parties,” senior Da- vid Ferguson, Phi Kappa Tau Special Interests member said. Sophomore Shelle Palas- ki, a little sis, said the atmo- sphere at Phi Taus is what appeals to her. The mem- bers really seem interested in others at parties.” The guys are close and we hope to share that,” sophomore Michelle VVirth, also a little sis, said. The organization has yet to receive either campus or national chartering. But President Scott Griffith ex- pects the organization to be notified of its national accep- tance sometime in the spring. Phi Kappa Tau currently has 48 members and 24 bummer that they are using the same colors and have the same letter as we do. It looks like they're sponging off our already established senior Terry King. Phi Kappa Theta mem- ber said. ------Kathy Golden-------- founding Little Sisses. An older fraternity on cam- pus, Phi Kappa Theta, now has to share its colors (ma- roon and gold) and its letters with Phi Kappa Tau. This provokes a different outlook toward the new fraternity.

A proposal to the Faculty Senate by Dean of Students Terry Smith started the ball rolling on a subject headed for a great deal of debate. “We feel the Task Force is needed to improve different aspects of the Greek sys- tem, Walter Ryle, instructor of history and chairman to the Faculty Senate Greek Life Task Force, said. This Task Force was set up by the Faculty Senate who appointed members select- ed to represent a Greek and non-Greek point of view. The members were then appoint- ed to one of three subcom- mittees and given individual areas and topics for discus- sion. The topics ranged from grade point averages, to the possibility of reintroducing a houseparent system. Although no permanent resolutions were made thus far, the most significant pro- posal brought up by the sub- committee concerned with Internal Policies, was in re- gard to a Deferred Rush pro- gram. Deferred Rush was the idea that a GPA of 2.5 and 12 credit hours must be attain- ed by a student before he she could be eligible to pledge a fraternity or sorori- ty. The proposal was the subject of much controversy as Greeks joined together to speak out at the Feb. 10 meeting. Many fraternity men were concerned about the variety of ways this policy might ef- fect their organizations. “Our First semester pledges are primarily re- sponsible for our second se- mester pledges.

All freshmen men ac- quired a 2.44 GPA last fall and now they're trying to say Greeks need a 2.5. They're not going to let people into a fraternity who meet the av- erage but may fall short of a 2.5 I think the 2.5 require- ment is too high, junior Robert Horton, Alpha Tau Omega and IEC assistant ad- viser, said. Linda Costic was one of the Greek Life Task Force committee members and an instructor of language and literature. We chose the 2.5 only because the sororities already have that figure and it was a place to start, Cos- tic said. Although sororities would not have seen a change in the GPA requirement, there were still several concerns cited by sorority members regarding the delayed pledge season. We feel we would lose girls to other activities, se- nior Rita Howdeshell, presi- dent of Alpha Sigma Alpha, said. As meetings of the Task Force continued, the only understanding reached by the committee was that they agreed to disagree about the Deferred Rush resolution and at a meeting held Feb. 24 decided to delay talks about the proposal until a later time. The fraternities argued rather persuasively. The present academic programs that the Greeks have institut- ed do seem to be working, Costic said. Although the outcome of these proposals was left un- decided, the Greek Life Task Force intended to continue to look for ways to improve the Greek system. What the future held for Greek life was also uncertain, but we could be assured of many changes ahead, as the atmosphere of the University continued to change. ---------Lisa Hale ---------- member of t Greek Task listens.

Gail Jung Organizations 179 Social Leading the Greeks in Besides parties, meetings and other social events, the Sigma Kappa social sorority has put their main interest into raising their grade point average this year and it paid off when the grades were re- ported this fall. The Sigma Kappa sorority topped the list of panhellen- ic sororities with a 2.8 QPA. Sigma Sigma Sigma came in a close second with a 2.77 QPA. For the past two years we put our focus on raising our QPA. We really worked hard on it and it paid off for us,” Stacey Conley, president of the sorority, said. In order to raise their GPA's, the organization be- gan study halls for both the pledges and the active mem- bers. The amount of hours they spent in study hall de- pended on how high or low each member's QPA from the previous semester had been. Grades were also monitored each week and discussions were held to help improve them. The study hall helped, you had to be quiet so you got a lot done and it helped to budget time,” freshman Kim Qregg said. If you needed help, there was al- ways someone there to help you.” We re really proud of our is- positive pledge program. We want the pledges to learn about the sorority but we re- alize that we are here for aca- demics so we allow quality time for that,” Conley said. Although Sigma Kappa was Mo. 1 in academic stand- ing in comparison with the other sororities, almost five years ago, they fell down to number four where they stayed until fall 1986. We took a look at how our academic standing was and decided to do some- thing about it,” Conley said ---------Debbie Lain----- ALPHA SIGMA ALPHA rront Row: Rita Howdershetl. president Beth Cunningham. vice president of Collegiate.

Then the big deci- sion of which one?” is left hanging over the students' heads. One choice many women on campus have made is that of joining Gam- ma Phi Delta social sorority. Gamma Phi Delta is rela- tively new. This past year was only its third at NMSU. The sorority has been grow- ing each year because there are many factors making it attractive to students. Because Gamma Phi Delta is not a national sorority, flexibility and lower costs are two factors which have made it an appealing choice. We don’t have national regulations to follow. We abide by University policy, yet we re able to do activities others (sororities) are un- able to, such as our Beer Bash. We have some flexibil- ity that others don't, junior member Cassie Payne said. Gamma Phi Delta's dues are lower than most social sorority's because they don't have to pay national dues. Another appealing quality of Gamma Phi Delta is that the sorority's grade point av- erage is higher than any oth- er social sorority's on cam- MEETING or THE MINDS Member Mcndy Sports- man. so., checks her notes as Linda Earnest, sr.. pre- pares to speak at a Gamma Phi Delta meeting, held in the Student Union Conference Room.

Gamma's aren't just social. I feel I'm also a member of an organi- zation involved in service and scholastic projects.” Our organization allows each person to be them- selves. It isn't necessary to completely live Gamma Phi Delta, but you get out of it whatever you put into it,” ju- nior Stephanie Riley said.

Sta- cey Knuisen Organizations 181 Social Contributions and hard work How many times have you walked across campus with- out seeing some arrange- ment of Greek letters? Most of the time when these curi- ous letters drift by they rep- resent to others only the rec- reational side of social orga- nizations. Even the service groups, which concern themselves with philan- thropic activities are not fully recognized for the tasks that they perform. Although Greek life, both social and service, has the rewarding fun side, it also has the sometimes unnot- iced side that incorporates determination to reach worthwhile goals, such as philanthropic projects. The Pi Kappa Phi social fraternity, pushed toward reaching a goal of $1,000 to donate to disabled chil- dren's developmental cen- ters. This fifth push-a-thon started Oct. 18 and ran through Oct. 22. It consisted of a wheelchair that was pushed around campus for a total of one hundred hours. Our collection total was $1,384 which we plan to raise next year ' senior Mark Osmanski said. Each year the money col- lected is united with funds from the Rolla and Columbia chapters and put into an es- crow account. The Pi Kap or- ganizations plan to continue raising money until there is sufficient funds to build a de- velopmental center in Mis- souri. Things went well, but I hope to see additional out- side help from sororities and others that would like to get involved,” sophomore Joe Hickey said. Sigma Kappa sorority, devotes time to people as well as collecting donations for charity. The members spend time each week visiting elderly people. They have an adopt- ed grandmother named Madge that is a Kirksville res- ident. Once a week members visit her at her home.

But, they were all a part of Career Expo '86 held Nov. 6 in the Student Union Building. One hundred companies answered questions and provided information about majors, careers, summer employment opportunities and internships at the eighth annual Career Expo. This year's expo was the largest one yet. Coordinator Jan Fishback said the expo may have to be a two-day event next year because this year there were about as many companies in one day as is possible to have. I enjoyed the expo but I was a little upset because a few of the companies I wanted to talk to didn't show up, junior Mick Nutter said. Some of the bigger compa- nies had long lines and it might have been helpful to have more representatives from the larger corpora- tions.'' Although 67 percent of the people who attend Career Expo '86 are juniors and se- niors, the event is beneficial to all students. The size of Career Expo grows each year as compa- nies hire or interview NMSU students and come back to find more students of equal caliber. Fishback said recog- nition of value-added has aided the success of the expo. It provides a chance for a lot of companies to talk to and recruit a great number of students, Detective George Damos, representing the St. Louis County Police Depart- ment said. This is a produc- tive thing for positive recruit- ing. — Michelle Blotevogel------- CAMPUS VOLUNTEERS Rront Row Kevin Me Dona Id. president: Lisa Hicks secretary; Jen niter t urtiin. secretary Kevin Luther, treasurer Second Row; hand!

The fair was held Oct. 16 and was sponsored by Cardinal Key service so- rority and the Student Activi- ties Office. More than 50 organiza- tions were represented by booths stocking pamphlets, pictures and members to an- swer questions. Many dis- played wares from their or- ganizations. The members of the Society of Physics Stu- dents had a hologram and an ' anti-gravity'' device. Other displays included a set of optical illusions at the Psi Chi honorary psychology booth and an array of medi- eval garb displayed and worn by the Society of Cre- ative Anachronism. One of the fair's highlights was the SNEA limbo contest. Spike, the bulldog, was a spirited contestant, but his ears kept knocking the stick down. The unofficial winner was Carrol Smith, alias Loig- ie Bologna, of the Society for Creative Anachronism. General reactions to the fair were positive. Dean of Students Terry Smisaid the fair was successful and there was a good deal of interest in j ssss the hinds of activities they engage m. Photo by Bob Singleton the organizations. Some organizations how- ever, felt that the fair was re- ally a very minor part of their public awareness cam- paigns. Senior Hope Ann Warren, public relations chairwoman for the Baptist Student Union, said she had no real way to gauge the suc- cess of the fair.

The beginning is the hardest part. The trek gets better if a student has questions, but if no one in the group acts as if they can speak, you're in for a long tour. Tor the past three years. Barb Dietrich has been a Stu- dent Ambassador. It is not difficult or time consuming Dietrich said; however, it can be quite a challenge. People probably think giv- ing tours is not the most ex- citing thing to do for one hour each week. Often that is not the case. The role of the Student Ambassador is important. The first impres- sion a student gets when he or she visits a school strong- ly influences the image they create. Last year, I was walking on campus and a girl came up to me and cheerfully said, 'Hi Barb, how are you doing, remember me?' To tell you the truth I had no idea who the girl was at the time, but of course I didn't tell her that,” Dietrich said. Quickly, I commented that she definitely looked famil- iar. She explained that I had given her a tour the year be- fore. Over a year after the tour. the girl still rememberd her name Dietrich said. ”1 was impressed. I wondered to myself if my contact with her had any influence in her coming to riMSU,” she added. David Noble, Admissions Counselor and special events coordinator, said he feels that the Student Am- bassadors do a great service to the University. Student Ambassadors provide a key service to Uni- versity visitors and their fam- ilies by giving a unique per- spective from a student's point of view, noble said. ------Kathy Betcher-------- and ------Barb Dietrich-------- Recruitment by way of a Rerso I ( ouch STUDENT AMBASSADORS front Row: l.ort Briggs, president; Jo ll Andrews, vice presi- dent.

However, for riMSU students, lack of money doesn't have to mean a lack of entertain- ment. The reason? For $10 any student may purchase a sticker from the Student Ac- tivities Board which allows free or reduced admission to all SAB-sponsored events. The entertainment provid- ed by SAB covers a wide range including recent movies, excursions, con- certs, guest speakers, com- tudent un edians, a campus talent show, outdoor recreation and other special events. A barn warming, a Chinese Magic Revue and a concert by contemporary Christian singer David Meece, were just a few of the new events the SAB sponsored this year. SAB is trying to provide more diversified activities that ap- peal to everyone's interest. We provide a variety of events and a lot of them, se- nior SAB member Bill new- burry said. “Other organiza- tions may just sponsor one event, but we provide a litle of everything.” “SAB has a lot of fun things for students,” senior Larry Lee said. “1 liked new events like the Chinese Mag- ic Revue. Most of the movies are OK too and I go to almost all of them.” This year a new commit- tee, the Long-Range Plan- ning Committee, was added to the nine existing commit- tees in an effort to provide the best possible entertain- ment at a reasonable cost for students. “SAB provides a break from studies for students who don't have much money to spend on entertainment,” junior Carolyn Hathaway said. — Michelle Blotevogel — STUDENT SENATE rront Kox: Donnie Meitner, president Joe Hants, vice in orient Jennifer Serati secretory; Det Webb. treasurer: foul Holdup couiKilpcrson-ol-lorge Secoixl Kowi l.outj Obcrmeyet.

Alpha Phi Sigma, a na- tional honorary scholastic fraternity, gained campus- wide recognition for the first time since its beginning at NMSU in 1930. Getting itself reorganized was the organization's main project for the 1986-87 aca- demic year. “The University is becom- ing recognized and it’s about time the fraternity is too, se- nior Rob Dickerson, presi- dent, said. If Alpha Phi Sigma is bet- ter known, it will fit right in with value added and the new mission of the Univer- sity, senior Katherine Dut- ton, vice-president, said. “Our sole purpose is to pro- mote the love of learning. “An additional purpose of Alpha Phi Sigma is to admin- ister a strong support team for this institute for higher learning, as well as our peers, Dickerson said. Those eligible to join the organization must have achieved a minimum accu- mulative grade point aver- age of 3.25 and have com- pleted 30 college credit hours. Another requirement, cre- ated this year, which differed from the past, was involve- ment within the fraternity. Mew members from the fall of 1986 and later had to at- tend at least 50 percent of the meetings and be in- volved with one function. “It's going to be a much better organization than it has been, junior Cindy Is- real. Alpha Phi Sigma mem- ber, said. “I think the in- volvement will create soli- darity to benefit the organi- zation. There are approximately 250 members in Alpha Phi Sigma, including 40 pledges from the fall of 1986. “It's a good club in the way that it goes along with the to- tal philosophy of the Univer- sity with the emphasis on grades, junior Jennifer Dar- nell, vice-president of mem- bership, said. -------Cathy Stortz--------- UNIVERSITY USHERS rront Row: IWtiWj McAllister. co-captain- Sharry Bakin . coca plain PSI CHI rront Ken..

But for about 40 students, recalling those memories is something they do for fun. Interested in numbers, the members of the math frater- nity Kappa Mu Epsilon worked toward organizing the annual Math Expo; how- ever, this year the group in- cluded a contest in their high school math invitational. The contest was purely the idea of students in KME, Mary Sue Beersman, advis- er, said. We always have the Math Expo, but students Melan- he time gdviscr Members flu n W leBrcf SMu eersmam decided they wanted to do something bigger this year. Responsible for all of the planning involved, the mem- bers coordinated lunch, tours and guest speakers for the visiting area high school students. This year, the numbers of schools invited expanded to encompass a 90-mile radius, three times the area covered last year. The Math Expo is our big event of the year, senior Mary Moore, president, said. in addition to the plan- ning, KME members created a 50-question test included to this year's agenda. Three tests were developed for each grade level present at the Expo. The high school students were sophomores, juniors and seniors. The members of KME also creat- ed a group test. Three winners for each of the 12 categories received an engraved medal. The school with the most total points was awarded a sweep- stakes trophy. nightmares of high school math classes may have haunted a few members while they constructed the tests for the contest, but these were nightmares of choice, accompanied by ex- perience in planning and or- ganization. — Michelle Blotevogel — KAPPA MU EPSILON front Row.

Who are these people who do so many different activi- ties? They are the members of the Delta Sigma Pi business fraternity. Who are the win- ners of the Most Outstanding Chapter in the nation award, winners of the Most Out- standing Community Ser- vice Chapter of the Midwest award and winners of the Midwest Regional Travel award. In addition, their ad- viser, Liz Mossop, was named Midwest Regional Ad- viser of the Year. The 77 co-ed member chapter competed against 165 other Delta Sigma Pi chapters all over the United States for this year's Most Outstanding Chapter in the nation award. Senior Bill newburry. Del- ta Sigma Pi president, said the awards they won were based on community ser- vices, professional activities, and organization within the chapter. With this chapter, I don't know if it's the same for all Delta Sigma Pi chapters, but this one is really strong and its members do most of the work on their own. And the adviser is in it in an advisory capacity, Delta Sigma Pi ad- viser Liz Mossop said. ‘ She is great. She is will- ing to lend her time to help out with members of the chapter whenever they have a problem, newburry said. The prestigious awards were based on scholastics, leadership abilities and aca- demics. -------Jan Capaccioli------ DELTA SIGMA PI rront Kowi Kill Newburry. president: Kristi� Hershnwn. senior vke presi deni.

Seniors Den- ise Vineyard and Jackie Han- son are co-presidents in a tri- al arrangement that is the first of its kind in the history of the organization. The idea for such a duality was con- ceived to cope with the busy schedules of both women. They hoped that if the two shared responsibilities, the organization would not be neglected. The main purpose of the organization is to serve the community. To this end they have done community ser- vice projects including in- volvement in the Special Olympics. The main empha- sis is on service activities; however, they do ceremoni- al and social events as well. This year, as in the past. Kappa Omicron Phi had a garage sale with proceeds going to Crossmore — a home for disabled children. They also plan to get in- volved with the battered wife hotline which is currently forming. The organization also visits and aids local nursing homes. The organization currently has 18 student and seven faculty members with Moni- ca Oibbs being the faculty adviser. Co-president Han- son said The organization is kind of transitional right now. In the recent past, mem- bership has been as few as five people. An effort is being made to increase member- ship and make a larger num- ber of students aware of the organization. Hanson added that to be a member of the organization, a student must be at least a sophomore with a 3.0 grade point average. Hot a lot of ex- tra time is required to be- come involved in their orga- nization. The group also considers an applicant's community involvement and moral standing. --------Curtis Cox--------- KAPPA OMICRON PHI rront Row; Denise Vineyard, president Shawn Shaffer. kc presi- dent Cathy Rasmussen, treasurer Second Row: Koc.nmc Malone.

Everyone else has to get a 3.75 to Keep their scho- larships while theyjust have to get an easy 3.5. And what about this experienceship deal? Stuffing letters into en- velopes for eight hours a week takes up a lot of time, doesn't it. Many students believe it's that easy, but there's a lot more involved in being a Per- shing than a cushy job like being a paper pusher. Pershings take a lot of knocks from others,” sopho- more Pershing Philip Me In- tosh, said. “Many don't see the time and committment an experienceship takes.” Created more than eight years ago, experienceships solved the unfairness many students believed occurred because of the Pershing Scholars' lower QPA require- ment. Besides maintaining a 3.5, the 57 Pershings must also perform a service that would benefit the University and themselves at the same time, according to the exper- ienceship stipulation includ- ed within their scholarship. A student can lose his scholarship by falling below his academic standing, while Pershings can lose their scholarships by having a 4.0 and not being involved. Dean of Students Terry Smith commented. We wanted Pershings to feel like they have enough academic flexibility to take some risks,” Smith said. Working six to 10 hours simply to peform a service for the University can be risky to the students' study time and their attitudes about the program. It takes a lot of time away from other things, like study- ing,” Me Intosh said. I really don't like to do it,” freshman Deborah Crumes said. It's kind of a pain.” Although both students agree that the added hours spent fulfilling the experien- ceships become tedious af- ter a while, they also agreed it is a small demand to ask in exchange for the full-ride scholarships the University provided for them.

Dewitt, presi- dent of the Pershing Society, stressed the importance of liking what you do. DeWitt advised that finding an experienceship to enjoy should come before concern about what to get out of it. During her freshman year, DeWitt found herself in a sit- uation much like the one she advised others to avoid. ”1 didn't enjoy my first ex- perienceship. It made it hard to put in those eight hours. The same experience hap- pened to junior Jackie Hoo- ver. Hoover, vice president, switched work places-choos- ing eventually to work within her area of study. Depending on the way a Pershing tackles the exper- ienceship project, valuable skills and added practical experience can be gained. It can help to look at it as a learning experience and not look at it as a chore, Me Intosh said. In the past, several Per- shings took advantage of the opportunity to involve them- selves in their area concen- tration as a way to meet their service requirement. An experienceship can be similar to an internship, freshman Angela Kern re- plied. It gives you a feel for what you want to do in the fu- ture. In many careers, practical experience separates one person from another. DeWitt believed the knowledge she gained through the three years of work with her exper- ienceships helped prepare her for the job market. When you graduate from college and you have no ex- perience, you can't go as far, DeWitt explained. Me Inosh concluded with a realization Pershings should keep in mind. If they didn't want to work the experienceship, they shouldn't have accepted the scholarship. ------Joann Heitman-------- PERSHING SOCIETY Tront Row: Deann 0«Witt. president.

'There's a lot less room in Ophelia,” junior Tracy Showalter, Echo editor, said. It is also a lot drier than Laughlin Hall.” Laughlin Hall had several leaks in the roof and it was a common site to see buck- ets all over the place to catch the drips. It was a careless move. As far as I understand there was no supervision,” In- structor of Communications Lori Dunseith said. A lot of things were lost or destroyed in the move,” Echo and Index adviser Kathy Armentrout said. We lost nearly every copy we had of last year's Index and the prior year's Index,” senior Marianne Hemming, editor in chief of the Index, said. Hot only did we lose a record of what had been done, we lost the capability to reproduce any ads from those issues.” KHEU does not plan to broadcast until January 1987. We still have to get peo- ple who are interested in working here and work out a lot of technical things,” Dun- seith said. We are tryng to switch over from AM to FM cable,” sophomore Courtney Stew- art, KHEU station manager, said. There will be an addi- tional fee to hook up KHEU to a cable box. Our concern is for it to be an educational facility,” Ed Carpenter, head of the Divi- sion of Language and Litera- ture, said. We are trying to provide experience for un- dergraduates.” If you don't have any ex- perience you won't get any- where in the job market,” Stewart said.

The alternative newspa- per, the Pundit, put out its first issue on September 2, 1986. It is a biweekly news- paper with a circulation of 5,000 copies. “We are 100 percent ad- vertiser supported,” junior Kevin Fitzpatrick, editor and publisher of the Pundit, said. There is no charge for an is- sue of the Pundit. The staff consists of about 12 editors and managers and a pool of 15 to 20 news- writers. Junior Michael Stark helped Fitzpatrick over the summer with ideas for the new publication. Other editors included se- nior Rita Hiscocks, manag- ing editor (fall); senior Monty King, sales manager; fresh- man Kirt Manuel, deputy edi- tor; and Paul Gusftafson, photo editor. The Pundit is made with desk-top publishing. It is then sent to the Kirksville Daily Express to be printed. “I would say that after the paper comes out at 8:30, all of them on campus are gone in about two hours,” Fitzpa- trick said. “The reason I would rath- er work for the Pundit is be- cause you get involved,” ju- nior Jean Pfeifer, contribut- ing editor, said. Fitzpatrick said the news- paper was started “because I had a lot of experience and talent and I saw the need. The potential was there and the market was there.” When Fitzpatrick gradu- ates from MMSU he will sell the paper and the staff can negotiate for contracts. — Carolyn Hathaway--------- WINDFALL Maty Jo Schmldi.

They perform a mix- ture of service-type functions such as fund raising. Senior Sherry Benz, president, said the organization is not very well known on campus. A lot of people think it is just for elementary educa- tion majors, but it's not. Any education major can join it.” Senior Babbs August, vice- president, said, SMSTA is not widely known around campus because in the past the group members haven't really been too involved. I don't think there is much in- volvement and there isn't any campus-wide publicity. This year the group has obtained over 40 active members. Project Plus, Benz said, was a very much needed pro- gram in the Kirksville com- munity. A lot of adults can't even write their own names, read to their own children, or read a job application to fill out for a job,” she said. As part of the project. SMSTA had a guest speaker come to NMSU in February to address the adult illiteracy problem. Dean Weitenhagen of KTVO is actively involved with the adult illiteracy pro- gram in Kirksville by actually working with people and helping them learn to read. Benz said the members seemed to enjoy Weitenha- gen's presentation and got a lot out of it. Several of them after- ward considered becoming volunteers, so it showed they must have been inter- ested in it.” Benz said that the organi- zation is progressing, as shown by an increase in membership. It's a good organization and it stands for a lot of good things. It's very valuable for experience for future teach- ing,” junior Brenda Bogert, SMSTA member said. ------Jamie Knapp---------- STUDENT NATIONAL EDUCATION ASSOCIATION rronl Rom Martin Blind, prcsi- dent- Teresa Claasscn. vice-president.- Lisa Hechter, treasurer Second Row; Beth Spann.

It is a group of special education majors that does special things for handicapped people. One of the biggest projects the organization undertook was Special Olympics. The members helped with the bowling and track Special Olympics, and they set up, and were in charge of, the running and basketball Spe- cial Olympics. Several Greek organiza- tions were involved in help- ing the student council set up and run the Olympics. The kids were all en- joying themselves and the older people were having fun too, freshman Debbie Ken- nedy, Alpha Sigma Alpha so- cial sorority member, said. There were four skill fields organized for the kids to compete in. Ribbons were presented to the top three places in various age groups. Lunch was served by Phi Kappa Theta social fraternity and the food was provided by local merchants. I think the project did a lot of good. The kids were re- ally excited. They kept show- ing us their ribbons and were very proud of what they ac- complished, junior John Brouder, Phi Kappa Theta member, said. Each special kid was as- signed to a buddy who would make sure that they got to their next activity. The bud- dies also encouraged and cheered on the kids. Everyone has a really good time getting to know each other, junior Kristen Hunt, vice-president of 5CEC, said. I feel that the Special Olympics benefited the kids that went because it gives them a whole day to have fun and meet people. Everyone is a winner, junior Deanna Bergmeier, SCEC member, said. It's a great feeling to see the kids' eyes light up and to see their smiles. -----Cristy Van Essen ---- ASSOCIATION rOR THE EDUCATION OP YOUNG CHILDREN rrom Rem, Kc� Yenger. vke-p evident Janet Moyers, secretary.- Becky Snyder, treasurer Back Row: Sandy Schwab.

Those participating in the NMSU version of the game- show had the opportunity to help a good cause, as well. The Speech Pathology Or- ganization sponsored the game and raised $300 for the northeast Missouri Headstart Program. This money helped buy an impe- dence audiometer — a ma- chine used to detect fluid in the inner ear. SPO's version of the game probably would not have been mistaken for the Holly- wood set, but all the ele- ments were there: a board of hidden letters concealing phrases and names of fa- mous people, the all-impor- tant wheel and that host and hostess with the mostest. Acutually, Pat Sajak and Vanna White could not at- tend the three nights of games at NMSU, so SPO ar- ranged for various University professors to take the ce- lebrities' places. Carolyn McClanahan, instructor of communication disorders, took her turn at playing the famous hostess by sporting a blond wig and a long, slinky dress. James Doc” Sevems, professor of dra- matics, made a memorable host. He was a real card,” junior Michelle Cassmeyer said. Contestants for the game were teams of students who donated $15 each to partici- pate. Alpha Sigma Tau so- cial sorority won first place in the game. They received a trophy and gift certificates donated by area businesses. Previously, SPO had spon- sored Campus feud, their version of Family Feud.” This year they decided to emulate Wheel of Fortune” because it was a more popu- lar show. The switch result- ed in more students coming to watch the games, al- though the number of teams participating did not change much, senior Julie Hoff- mann, president, said. It was fun.” Cassmeyer concluded, but it was for a good cause too.” ----- Karman Wittrey ------- NATIONAL SCIENCE TEACHERS ASSOCIATION rront Row: Lisa Lock presi dent Diane Olidcwell.

That's why the College Credit Card Corporation of- fered to pay 50 cents for each credit application made by a college junior, senior or graduate student. And that's why the Business Adminis- tration Club jumped at the chance to collect the appli- cations. BAC is made up of 75 members who major or mi- nor in any field relating to business. So the BAC arranged to re- ceive applications in the mail and set up tables around campus to recruit students for five different kinds of credit cards. That's how we did it at first, but it didn't go over so well,” senior Sue Rhodes, BAC president said. So then we had different mem- bers take them out and try to get 10 or so. It worked a lot better.” Dean Shilenok of CCCC said credit issuers are very, very lenient” with col- lege students who apply. Companies may ask for a student's credit history, in- come and stability, but then discard these criteria be- cause the students repre- sent the up-and-coming mar- ket, Shilenok said. CCCC boasts an 80 to 90 percent acceptance rate for fully completed applications. Freshman Brad Martin, BAC member in charge of the moneymaker, said the group gathered about 200 applications for CCCC. How- ever, many of these were re- jected by the corporation be- cause they were incomplete. BAC received only about $50, Martin said. I was very disappointed,” Rhodes said. Despite the fact that BAC members weren't totally sat- isfied with the project, they helped five U.S. companies tap into that $600 million that college students have just lying around. ----- Karman Wittry------ ACCOUNTING CLUB rront Row sandy Pfadcnhaucr. president Jennifer Benedict. vice president; Charlene Caulkncr. secretary Jerry Schneider, treasurer Second Row; Laurie Turner, adviser Becky Grooms Susie Bohrer.

A pre-professional stu- dent from NMSU is definitely able to be competitive with other students, senior Mike Moore, pre-veterinary stu- dent, said. All schools with pre-professional programs have about the same f AT race ”4 Totj courses. Here you take the same general education re- quirements as everyone else and your pre-professional training is part of a core cur- riculum. The individual deter- mines how competitive he will be after graduation. se- nior Toby Vandenberg, pre- medical student, said. The material is available and the individual decides as an un- dergraduate student wheth- er he will get as much out of a class as he can or simply leam enough to get by. NMSU students also have had a number of opportuni- ties to work with faculty members on various re- search projects. A detailed hands-on research experi- ence could have been a cru- cial deciding factor for a stu- dent applying to a profes- sional school. 1 think a liberal arts back- ground is very important, freshman Angie Hamm ex- plained. You need a well- rounded background to be competitive in today's pro- fessional business world. Insight into the actual ca- reer situation could also be gained through member- ship in one of the Univer- sity's pre-professional orga- nizations.

Craig Ragland Organizations 200 Departmental physician's club was com- posed of pre-professional medical students. Some of their activities included visit- ing the University of Missouri (Columbia) medical school and the Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine. This year, a new biology honor society. Beta Beta Beta, was formed to promote undergraduate camaraderie among science students. The society was initiated as a local chapter, becoming one of 320 chapters nation- wide. The recent renovation ad- dition to Science Hall not only increased the amount of space in which to conduct experiments, but also strengthened the capacity for in-depth research. The purchase of physiographs and improved microscopes allowed pre-professional students to utilize top-of-the- line equipment for research and classroom work. The classes changed from five hours, which to four hours caused disadvantages for some pre-professional students . If a student had not planned a careful sched- ule, it was possible that stu- dents following the new pro- gram found that they did not have as many credit hours as they had anticipated. The reason for this dis- crepancy was due to the transition between old and new catalogs. A course in- volving a lab (such as Organ- ic Chemistry) might formerly have included a total of five credit hours but then be- came worth only four. Stu- dents who had planned to take a sequence of two clas- ses completed the courses with only eight hours instead of the former 10. We have the facilities, in- structors and research opportunities available. A person can be in the top of the class at any medical school if they are willing to work for it. What you get out of a pre-professionals pro- gram all depends on what you put into it, Moore said. — Michelle Blotevogel-------- PRC-PMYSICAMS CLUB rront Ren� -: Julia McNabb. president: Mark Hechter, vice president: Gary Lahti, treasurer; Trcd lewercnz. secretary back Row: Karen tllas. 8ecky Bartcc.

Who are these people? What ex- actly are they doing there? Well, the women at foot- ball games are members of Purple Pride, and those at basketball games are in Pur- ple Pack. Members of both groups volunteer their time to actively support the teams. To join the organizations, the women had to fill out applications and then go through interviews. Eric holm, assistant football coach, talked to Pride hope- fuls, while Pack applicants were interviewed by Jack Bowen, two faculty members and a basketball player. The women are asked to attend every home game. In addition, members of Purple Pride are requested to go to one away game. We've never had any problems with attendance so we don't have a set poli- cy,” junior Packer Tammy Crist said. Purple Pride has more members to divide up the work. The women sell pro- grams at football games, and they work in the press box to keep the people there supplied with soda-pop and food. They also usher and keep an eye on stands for any problems. We're not really able to watch the game. The first quarter especially is kind of busy 'sophomore Janet Morlan said. HEALTH AND EXERCISE SCIENCE CLUB rront Row: David Johnson, president.

But the women are Kept so busy they don't even notice. Some of the day games it would actually be hot be- cause we were running around, a member of both organizations, senior Trisha Hamm said. The work does not end at the games though. The women are required to spend one hour per week working in the football office. They send recruitment let- ters to high school students and give tours to them if they come to visit the campus. Purple Pack members work at the basketball games. The women keep the reserved seats clear for the booster club members and distribute programs and halftime statistics to them. They also take drinks up to the press box. A lot of high school kids would like to sit in the re- served seats, junior Angie Briscoe said. Another difference is that Purple Pride members wear slacks and Purple Packers wear skirts. The only part of the uniforms that the Univer- sity supplies is the blouses for Purple Pack. The women must pay for the rest them- selves. However, all their dedica- tion pays off. The women agreed that a main reason for joining was to meet the teams. Purple Pride mem- bers decorate the players' lockers, and Purple Pack members cooked a dinner for the players and had a pic- nic with them. Another reward for Purple Pride was their trip to St. Louis for the game against Southeast Missouri State University. (Cape Girardeau, Mo.). The women worked the game in Busch Stadium. Morlan said that this trip was the most fun part of the sea- son. ---- Karen Klingemann ------ Trish of the watch PURPLE PRIDE rront Row: Tart Snider. Janet Morlan. Teresa Brennan. Jennifer Poe.

The cur- tain rises and the actors take their places. You study the characters in the play to un- derstand the plot. You no- tice that one character lights a candle while another pours himself a glass of wine. Throughout the whole play, you're noticing even the smallest of details. You walk away from the play thinking that you picked up on even the most minute gestures. But have you ever thought about who placed the matches on the table for the candle or who mixed the col- ored water so it would look like wine? If you're like most. probably not. But if you did wonder who did those things, chances are, it was most likely the University Players. This organization plays an important role in the theater department. The members contribute to a majority of the work that gets done, on and off the stage. Because there are only 25 members, they are all hard at work up to three or more hours each night during pro- duction practices. Senior Darren Thompson, president of University Players said, We re just people who want to get in- volved with theater because we love it so much. Mot every' member is a theater major, but we are still involved for the experience. A person can get experi- ence in everything, every facet, junior member Shar- on Vlahovich said. University Players help with make-up, lighting, props, errands and other various responsibilities. Also, they are often cast members of various plays. Many of the Players spend a lot of time making sure ev- erything runs smoothly dur- ing performances. So next time you watch a play, think about the people hard at work behind the scenes. Without them, the play could not be a success. ------ Matalie Kim-------- SHOWGIRLS front Row; Sharon WilMS. captain Dec Ann Dugger, coupuin; Holly Bagby, SCC- rcuiry.

Their mission is to recreate what life was like in the Re- naissance period. Their monthly meetings are called moot. Any English terms that can be traded for terms of the Renaissance pe- riod are faithfully used. They try to reproduce what every- day life was like before 1600. The historical battles and events they hold do not have predetermined outcomes. The moot holds regular business, just like any other club, only in costume and court. Local guilds carry on the arts and crafts spch as costuming, embroidery, archery, the making of ar- mory and fighting, with swords of retan instead of metal. A person really gains re- spect and a feeling for our ancestors' daily life, Senes- tal Sue Peeler said. Just try- ing to recreate a recipe gives you an idea of how hard it was to be a housewife then. Last spring a national festi- val was held at a permanent Renaissance festival park in Texas to celebrate the SCA's twentieth anniversary.

In the Student Nurses Associa- tion, members involved themselves in activities to prepare them for the nursing field. “Murses maintain the quality of life, junior Lynn Jackson said. “That's what we're doing in the organiza- tion with our community pro- jects. During the year, the group helped with the Great Ameri- can Smokeout, donated to the United Way campaign on campus, gave blood pres- sure screenings and provid- ed CPR classes for any group that approached them. Choosing health-related projects, the nursing group was able to apply the infor- mation they gained in class, while getting a chance to view the profession first hand. “The projects give insight to that side of the field, plus we all get to know each other better, sophomore Nancy Suttie commented. Although the number of nursing majors appeared small compared with other areas of study on campus, the small size allowed a cer- tain closeness other groups might not have witnessed. “Being a smaller group, we re a lot closer and we feel like we get more accom- plished, Suttie explained. One of the requirements set for the local section in- cluded meeting the set num- ber of national members. In the past, they failed to meet this stipulation, which de- leted the group's voting priv- ilege at the convention. “As far as nationals were concerned, NMSU didn't ex- ist, Jackson said. However, this year 39 stu- dent nurses joined the na- tional level, an increase of 600-700%, Jackson added. -----Joann Heitman------- ASSOCIATION OF BLACK COLLEGIANS front Row: rmest Green. president Jen- nifer Vaughn, vice president Andrea Jackson, secretary.

Providing them with an- imals, the Humane Society chose animals that seemed most likely to be adopted, Vera Rogers, director of an- imal health technology, said. We get animals in that are real scroungy,” Rogers said. They go back fat and sassy and much more adapted to different peo- ple. The AHT practiced clinical techniques. The animals each received a thorough cleaning, medical treatment, if needed, and complete physicals which included ev- erything from blood samples to teeth cleaning. The stu- dents took responsibility for the animals up until the time when they were returned to the shelter. Getting up a 7 a.m. when it's 10 below zero to walk the dogs can get on your nerves,” sophomore An- nette Willman said. But when you get out there, it changes.” Purchased by the Univer- sity in 1976, the animal hos- pital allowed students a chance to become prepared for their careers after gradu- ating from the two-year pro- gram. After May 1988, the last section of students in the program will have graduat- ed. The clinic and the nation- ally-acclaimed program will be eliminated because it failed to fit into the new liber- al arts mission. -----Joann Heitman -------- ANIMAL HEALTH TECHNOLOGY CLUB rront Row; Melody Croteau. president Peggy Mart, vke president.

They are planning to sponsor more varied and possibly longer trips in the future. For the first time there are study programs offered in Europe as well as the ones previous- ly offered in Japan and Costa Rica. Instructor of Language and Literature Vera Piper and Instructor of Foreign Language Ruth Bradshaw are sponsoring a trip to Spain, France and England this summer. This trip is not Kiel, West Germany along with the University of Utah in Salt Lake City. Students will spend five- and-one-half weeks at the Cristian-Albrecht-Universitat in Kiel studying a wide range of German classes. Students must have had at least one year in German to be eligible to sign up. worth credits and anyone is eligible to sign up. Students will be studying the culture and history of the countries as they tour many famous cities and historical sites. Most of the students signed up to go have studied either French or Spanish. The tour will be carried out by Cultural Heritage Alli- ance, a professional educa- tional tourguide company. It will leave from Kansas City around the first of June and spend a total of 15 days abroad. In Spain, students will visit Granada (Malaga) on the Costa del Sol, Seville, Cordoba, La Mancha, Madrid and Toledo. The cost per student is $1,334 — plus lunches, tips, and personal expenses. Ev- erything else is included in the price. Instructor of German Mar- en Partenheimer is sponsor- ing an educational tour to TRENCH CLUB rront Row: Jenny Buschc. Kayla Joiner. Steve Lieske Back Row.

The cost is $850 and in- cludes tuition and dorm room. Students must cover the cost of food, books, transportation and personal expenses. There are many academic grants and stu- dent loans available though. Connie Reid, assistant professor of foreign lan- guage, is also sponsoring a trip to Germany. This trip will go to a university in southern Germany. Betty McLanes-lles, assis- tant professor of French, is sponsoring a trip to Quebec this summer. Six hours of French credit can be earned. Students from various lev- els, elementary to advanced, will undergo intensive study programs July 6 through Aug. 14. They will study four hours every morning plus labs at the University Lalual in the city of Quebec. They will live with French-speak- ing families and participate in outings and excursions. About 10 students will be going, each paying $866. That money will include lodging, meals, tuition and books. McLanes-lles said she hopes the program will be- come a regular program at HMSU and stressed the fact that nothing can help you learn a language better than immersing yourself in a cul- ture that speaks it. To continue the existence of these programs and to look into other programs, the Division of Language and Literature has a committee for these purposes. In the fu- ture, students may be able to choose from a variety of ex- change transfer programs lasting a semester or a year at universities around the world. ---- Courtney Stewart----- talks to in- educational BRIDGES TO INTERNATIONAL FRIENDSHIP rront Row Dan rotd. president.

They have to Keep fit,” Lt. Col. Clyde Johnson, com- mander of the military sci- ence division, said. In do- ing this it's not to see who was there and who wasn't. It's a test of their leader- ship.” The students in ROTC came from different back- grounds, had different goals and sought different aca- demic careers. But all the ca- dets joined the Bulldog Ba- tallion (MMSU's ROTC divi- sion) to improve their lead- ership. “Everything we do in this program is oriented toward leadership development,” Johnson said. Jumpingjacks at 5:30 a.m. were just the beginning of the extra leadership training for the cadets. ROTC stu- dents spent three hours ev- ery Thursday afternoon in a leadership lab. Cadets were responsible for the lab's agenda, developing exer- cises that increased the stu- dents' speaking and organi- zation skills as well as en- hancing their initiative. During the summer, ROTC cadets spent six weeks in an advanced leadership camp. Senior Jan Tallman added special training in her sum- mer as she enrolled in air- borne, or parachuting school. “It was tough physically and mentally, especially get- ting over my fear of heights,” she said. “But it was fantas- tic. It was neat because I met all types of people — at dif- ferent ranks and we shared the same experience.” But did ROTC prevent stu- dents from joining other or- ganizations as well?

A person active like that with a 2.75 QPA is more valu- able to us than a student with a 3.75 QPA that doesn't participate.” Tallman held 18 credit hours of biology in the spring semester and man- aged a 3.9 QPA. It keeps me busy, but I find the busier I am, the bet- ter I do in school,” she said. It's like that saying. When you're juggling glass and rubber balls, you've got to know which ones to catch and which ones to drop.' But I wouldn't give up ROTC for anything.” I joined for the opportuni- ties that it gives a person and for the responsibility and self discipline it teaches,” soph- omore Michael Stagoski said. HMSU has been compared to Harvard. As a result, the ROTC program has been comparable to West Point. The Bulldog Batallion been ranked as the second- best ROTC program in the re- gion. Johnson said the sup- port and reputation of the University accounted for their success. Taxpayers pay $250,000 for a cadet to graduate from West Point. Here they can re- ceive the same training for $4,000.” Johnson said the most valuable experience for any future Army officer was a lib- eral arts program such as HMSU's. Liberal arts en- hanced officers' leadership abilities by enabling them to adapt to more and different views of the people they will have worked with. Hot all ROTC students continued their military ca- reer. Some HMSU ROTC graduates have become dairy farmers, others, state representatives. Many pur- sued post-graduate work. But they all took pride in themselves, in their work and in the University as a re- sult of ROTC. -----Helen Turnbull ------- ROTC RAIDERS rront ROW: Cdl. Capt. Scott lleeiner. rjidcr commander.

Vis- ions of artists hunched over light tables comes to mind, but the Graphic Arts Club showed that there was much more to their organization than that. Winning the Homecoming banner contest was an ex- ample of their efforts. We really have fun in the club, senior Kris Adams, secretary treasurer said. We re doing all we can to let people Know who we are and what we re about.” Paul Wohlfeil is the club's adviser. This year's club was considerably more moti- vated than clubs we have had in the past. They were brainstorming so many new ideas, that it was impossible to handle them all. They also raised more money for the club than we have in past years, Woklfeil said. The money the group raised was used toward trips that they took each semes- ter. The places we toured gave us a more hands-on ap- proach than if some teacher just told us about the pro- cesses, sophomore An- nette Trote, president of the organization said. This way we can actually see the pro- cess and leam in a way the University can't provide be- cause of the expenses. When you go on a trip, said Wohlfeil, first and fore- most, it become a bridge be- tween the academic student and the professional. They can find out what their job will be like and even if they want to stay in their field. The club also completed some fund raisers that in- cluded selling St. Patrick's Day buttons and also T- shirts that they silk-screened themselves. They also co- sponsored a photo contest with Rider Drug. We're trying to get more than just people in the graphic art field interested in our club, Trote said. We are going to be mailing infor- mation about our organiza- tion to other majors, such as mass photography. ----- Cristy Van Essen ---- False Visions GRAPHIC ARTS AMD PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB rront Row Sandy Diederich. presi dent; Unda ralmltcr. vice president Kris Adams, secrctary treasurer Second Row: Michelle Cass mcycr.

Today the club in Kirksville has decid- ed to build a new structure to house their Mewman Center. A new facility is needed be- cause of the increase in the amount of Catholic students attending MMSU and also be- cause of the poor condition of the present building. The number of Catholic students has increased con- siderably,” Rev. Les Miem- eyer, director of Mewman Center, said. The increase is somewhere around 30 to 35 percent.” The present structure was built 43 to 44 years ago dur- ing World War II and was pur- chased by the diocese in 1967. The Mewman Center has problems with the founda- tion and the roof. The tile brick in the foundation is sheering and the roof leaks. The cost of the new facility will be somewhere in the neighborhood of $250,000. The cost will vary depending upon the location. It may be built in the present location, or new land may be pur- chased. The money will hopefully be raised in a year and a half through alumni, founda- tions, parents of students and the local parish. The new building will in- clude a large multi-purpose room used primarily for wor- ship, a student lounge, li- brary, chapel, kitchen, of- fices and room for two to four people to live. Across the nation, Mew- man Centers are located near campuses to provide a place for students to worship in the Catholic faith. “At Mewman Center there is a real close-knit peer at- mosphere,” sophomore Sue Steinhauser, vice-president of the Mewman Center coun- cil, said. --- Carolyn Hathaway----- NEWMAN CENTER rront Row: ratty rat cr.

There is an excellent SAB movie showing, but then what? When the movie ends, the remaining options seem numbered. This lack of varying social activity on campus prompt- ed the Residence Life Office to seek a way to present al- ternative, entertaining social activities for students. By in- creasing activities. Resi- dence Life hoped students remaining for the weekends would have more options and that more residents would choose to spend their weekends on campus. Each of the seven resi- dence halls were given a weekend, beginning in mid- February, to schedule one large, campus-wide event, program coordinator and Grim Hall director Sheila Middendorf said. The event could be any- thing from a dance, to co-ed tournaments, to a casino night featuring a Las Vegas type atmosphere with fake gambling for donated prizes. It's not to keep people here as much as it is to give options to those who do stay hereon weekends,'' Midden- dorf said. Middendorf said it seemed that northeast was attracting students from a greater dis- tance, but when classes were over, students were left hanging. Laurie McLaughlin, Cen- tennial Hall director, said, Our hope is that the cam- pus recognizes the impor- tance of providing social ac- tivities for students and that students take advantage of them so they feel as though they have reason to stay on campus.” The University is gaining CAMPUS CRUSADE FOR CHRIST rront Row: Kristine Scolari.

They need some- thing to do during the week- ends because they can't go home as often ' Middendorf said. Many students seemed to feel that alternative social activity was lacking on cam- pus. There's a need for some- thing to keep students occu- pied because there is noth- ing to do here ' sophomore Daryl Jones said. Sophomore Joann Ruddy said, There is nothing to do after the SAB movie. 1 don't particularly care for the meat-market atmosphere at fraternity parties and the programs are an excellent idea.” Our focus is that we want to provide quality programs for the whole campus, but we're also planning events for Centennial residents,” McLaughlin said. McLaughlin said residents of Centennial planned to take part in events through- out the day, including do- nuts and cartoons, a volley- ball tournament and an ice cream social. That evening, February 21, a casino night was planned in the Centenni- al Hall cafeteria. Because we live across campus in Centennial we don't have the opportunity to socialize with those in the other residence halls,” freshman Heidi Miller said. Ryle Hall made plans for the weekend of March 27. Di- rector Mary Vimoche said they planned to host a beach party. I just hope we've met the needs of students through weekend programs, because it builds unity and allows stu- dents to play an active roll in what is happening on cam- pus,” McLaughlin said. ------Kathy Golden------- RESIDENCE MOUSE ASSOCIATION rront Row; Mariljn DyKstra. president: Adam NATIONAL RESIDENCE HALL HONORARY Anne r.ikcn.

Knowledge outside the c Ki ass oom Five students dashed madly to the Student Union Building mall. One grabbed Dean of Students Terry Smith while another shoved a Polaroid camera into the hands of an innocent by- stander. Will you take a picture of our group?” she gasped. After a quick snapshot, the students ran wildly to a waiting car and screeched off to Domino's Pizza to snap the next person on their list. The students were partici- pating in Snapshot,” a type of photographic scavenger hunt sponsored by Blanton Mall as a get-acquainted pro- gram. Snapshot was only one of the many programs and ac- tivities offered to students in residence halls. Each Resident Adviser was required to present two edu- cational programs per se- mester. In addition, each hall director could require RAs to sponsor additional programs in other areas. Carol Farrell, director of Blanton Mason Hall, re- quired RAs to present the two educational programs plus one cultural, one social and one recreational pro- gram per semester. Therese Malm, assistant director of Centennial Hall, required RAs to fill out a pro- posal form before schedul- ing a program. The proposal tells what components the program covers — social, education- al, etc. One program may cover more than one area. I must sign the form at least a week before the program and afterward the programs are evaluated,” Malm said. Hall governments and houses, as well as hall direc- tors, provided programming in addition to the RAs pro- grams. Sheila Middendorf, direc- tor of Grim Hall, said ideas for programs came from a combination of the RA's, Grim Hall Senate and her- self.

A majority of the pro- grams are social, but we also have four educational pro- grams per semester. One re- ally good one dealt with as- sertiveness,” Middendorf said. The beginning of the school year was marked with a number of residence hall programs to help students adjust to their new environ- ments and get acquainted with each other. Centennial Hall sponsored a live band and lip sync con- test, the Blanton Nason staff did a take-off on the game show Jeopardy” to explain hall rules. Brewer Hall spon- sored an orientation for in- dependent freshmen living in the hall. Student-oriented issues were common topics for the required educational pro- grams. Centennial Hall RAs invited University President Charles McClain to speak about how to get the most from a degree from north- east. The RAs and also spon- sored programs about scho- larships, birth control and sorority life. Blanton Mason programs addressed issues such as rape awareness, stress and death and dying. Students found a variety of services such as aerobics, tutoring services and study buddies, book buying and selling and tips on time man- agement available through the halls. Because residents of Brewer Hall were already ac- tively involved in sororities, the staff developed a pro- gram called 20 20 to deal with time limitations. The program consisted of 20, 20 minute programs through- out the year. Topics includ- ed such things as self-de- fense and aerobics. Brewer Hall Director Janis Good- man said the 20 20 was de- signed to cater to the resi- dents' busy schedules. ---- Callen Fairchild ------- DOBSON HALL SENATE rront Row; Matthew Kuchl. president- Erie Thomassen, vice presi- dent- Brian Johanpcler. secretary Jim Moon, treasurer Second Ken..

Trying times added faith, depth and learning to each day and each en- counter. A professor who made us laugh, think and ex- plore is a person we all recall. Behind these pages of faces await the people who helped comprise the recognition cast upon NMSU, the people who provided the confidence to try a major academic overhaul. Our friends grew out of strangers. A new face in the hall or in an adjoining seat allowed the roots to spread. Go over these pages slowly. The faces who helped us touch tomorrow today should not be rushed through. Our friendships took time to build and should be given equal time to be re- freshed. ficosta Susana Acosta Graphic A ns Kristen Adams fhocoyjphy Jeffery Adkins Lori Adkins Special education Athanatius Alagwu rh ic Rhonda Allison Mathematics education Tamer Amad Compute Science Christine Aman Oovncvs MmUMtfilkn Charles Ammons Industrial Occupations Joel Anders Buvness Admmotratlon Lynn Anderson rtJM Communication Richard Anderson Business AdmWstrallon Jodi Andrews Business Administration Lisa Archer nursing Mayumi Arino elementary education Jerry Armentrout Criminal Justice Terry Armentrout Criminal Justice Mancy Asher Accounting Molly Bagby Builncxt AdrrinHtrjOOo Laura Bagby Ca bli Mucibyi Linda Ball Speech rathdogy Janice Baltisberger elementary educacicn LoisAnn Bardot Business Administration Krista Barker Accounting Shelley Barnes Wort rroecssing Marsha Barnett Musk Buskess Pamela Barnett C looting and TcstHes Retailing Rhonda Barney Biology Ellen Barry rre-Medical Technology Sandra Barton Accounting Dawn Becker riursaig Carol Behlmann Child Doetopnaent Gary Belcher Mathematics education, Siecondacy Jennifer Belzer Cicnxnury WtXJOoo Jennifer Benedict Accounting Kevin Begjamin Computer VKnee, Statistic� Eric Bennett Criminal Justice Matthew Bentz economic� Sherri Benz etemceoey education Lori Berendzen Interpersonal CcmmwrUcatlocas Deneen Berry Graphic Arts Katherine Betcher Mass Communication DeWayne Billue Business Admfiistratton Kendall Bimson Mathematics education Michael Blackford Business Administration Karen Bock Business Administration Robin Boggs r y ho(OQy Carey Boleach Mass CommmKaUon People 220 Seniors Balancing both good grades ond outside activities mokes the Board's non-voting member MOR€ THAN A STUD6NT VOICE Or THE STUDENTS Rlc Brockmcicr, sr., offers input during a board meeting to member Frederick C. Lauer. Brockmeier had the Job of chairing the special events committee on SAB. Photo by Dixon Munday When they see you, that is their vision of northeast, so you have to Keep that in mind,” senior Ric Brockmeier said about his role as student representative to the Board of Governors. The student representative must be a resident of the United States and the state of Missouri, who is enrolled as a full-time student. The applicant must also be a junior, sophomore or fresh- man who is able to complete the two- year term. A committee is formed to help choose an applicant. The committee consists of the Student Senate president, the cur- rent student representative to the Board of Governors and three students chosen at large by the Student Senate president. The committee screens the applica- tions, conducts interviews and then se- lects three applicants. The governor of Missouri then chooses the student rep- resentative from those three people. The University is a Missouri tax-sup- ported institution and that is a major reason for the requirement,” Dean of Students Terry Smith said. Another reason is that two-thirds of the students are from Missouri. You are going to elim- inate some good candidates, but I don't think it is unreasonable,” he said. The Board of Governors meets ap- proximately once a month and the stu- dent representative attends. The stu- dent representative is a non-voting member. He she cannot make motions and cannot go to closed meetings. There is no way that one person can really truly represent the 7,000 students on campus,” Brockmeier said. ‘‘I try be- fore meetings, to have a pretty good idea of how the students feel. I use the Stu- dent Senate and then just my involve- ment in other activities and my other contacts.” Brockmeier is a member of the Per- shing Society and the Student Activities Board among others. ----------Carolyn Hathaway---------- ronrest Bollow Biology David Boone routkal VK«t Carla Boss tkmmury Eduction Mary Bowen Animal Vlerx c Timothy Bower ni� too Mtxjiioo Donna Bowman Drifting and Design Tracy Boyd Dullness Administration Miriam Braker A Shawn Bray Criminal justice Timothy Breck Interpersonal Commurtcatlont Lori Briggs MsrSetlng. refSOnnel Management Nancy Briggs Interpersonal Communications Kimberly Blinker Eusmess Administration Richard Brockett Graphic Arts Eric Brockmeier Statistics Leslie Brooks rhysleal Education Nanette Brooks Blokr� Barbara Brown Elementary Education People 221 Seniors Broujn Charlene Brown rioTicnUry Education Heidi Brown Otology r.iixjiion Jeffrey Brown Accounting Kathy Brown Bull� � A«lmtn Mf� Oon Sandra Brown Crlmkol .HnUcc Peggy Brummitt rKiTKnury EducKton Jane Buckley CrMrval JuMJet Debbie Buckman BvWk� AdfftfnHtratfon Kathryn Bugh Mjlhcnuf Cc«rtxil� i 4 ttntx Karl Bullingcr dCClrc C Brian Burr Cflmlrul JuMitt Jana Buwalda nwning Scott Cameron P o ooy Diann Campbell Eltmtury MucKlon Ladonna Campbell VOCMIOnM It0«r Economics Sandra Capesius MKhoralk.% edwC40on,'3«on6� ry Carl Carlson Compc««f Science Kathy Carlson rsychoioflj Summer vacation:” It was all work and always very exciting, the apple is big and AS for M€, it was €fiSV TO DIG6ST Students throughout educa- tional history, at one time or another, have probably ex- perienced the trials and tri- bulations of the dreaded How I Spent My Summer Vacation” essay. English teachers across the nation are re- nowned for requiring students to pain- fully compose a complete rendition of an entire summer's activities in less than 1,000 words. If senior Karman Wittry had been re- quired to do such a task last fall, she probably would not have had much problem. First of all, she had plenty to write about, since she spent her summer doing an internship in Hew York City. Se- condly, condensing all of that exciting information into one short paper would have been easy for her. After all, her in- ternship was with Reader's Digest. Wittry's unique summer experiences stemmed from her acceptance into a na- tional internship program sponsored by the American Society of Magazine Edi- tors (ASME). She had applied in Decem- ber 1985 and the good news came back during the following Spring Break week of 1986. At that time I didn't know yet what magazine I would be assigned to,” Wittry said. I had to decide whether I was go- ing to do it without knowing where I was going to be working.” With her acceptance letter, Wittry sub- mitted a list of five magazines at which she wanted to work. And, like a true stu- dent, she waited until much too close to the Final deadline to turn in the neces- sary papers. I typed them in a hotel room in San Antonio, Texas, because I was there on a speech team trip,” Wittry said. Two months later she was in another room in another big city — Hew York City, in downtown Manhattan on the campus of Hew York University. All of the ASME interns stayed in a 17-story dormi- tory on the comer of Fifth Avenue and 10th Street. Wittry vividly remembers the uncer- tainty of going to work on the first day. The bigness of the city caused some queasy feelings about getting lost, and Wittry said she was not even certain about how she and a fellow intern were supposed to get to the Reader s Digest offices in Pleasantville — an hour's trip north from their dorm. All we knew was this guy named Darryl was going to pick us up in a red- and-white van in front of the Bagel Buffet and we were supposed to get in and go,” Wittry said. That's all we knew.” But, after those first few nervous days, Wittry settled into the magazine staff quite easily. She was amazed at how helpful the other staff members were to- ward her and the other intern. I didn't meet a single person the whole time I was there that wasn't willing to drop whatever they were doing and sit down to talk with us, about Reader's Di- gest, the tasks we were working on, about what we wanted to do with our fu- tures,” Wittry said. There were so many people who were truly interested in what we were doing.” While she was there, Wittry worked two weeks in each of four different de- partments, doing specific tasks for the upcoming issues of the magazines. Her first stop was the Research Depart- ment, where she researched the Life in These United States” and Quotable Quotes” sections of the September 1986 issue. Hext, she moved to the magazine's Copy Desk. In that department, she basi- cally read over all the articles of the soon-to-be-published September issue. There would be a lot of different cop- ies of each story — one that the editor in chief had read, one that the issue edi- tor had read, and one that the executive editor had read,” Wittry explained. I would take the changes from those People 222 Seniors Corson Teresa Carson MjlkCOnQ Christi Carter AMOunttig Rhonda Carter ►UrVOnfl Duane Casady 0 0 0® CduuUon Shawn Cassidy SpMCti ThcMK MuCJIIOn Cynthia Catron Duiincj� Mmwvrjoon Michael Chalk Computer Vktxt Tamara Chalk Murk MucMlon Mark Chambers rrvjlIWi Yu-Muel Chen BulWM APMnlUrjIlon Cara Chlckering rrt-rh � lc� t Thtrrpj Brian Childs PutWe� X ntMrM)on Yiu Chlng Computer Vlenee Jan Chu Computer Vtcnec Teresa Claassen ElemenUry eoucjtton Suzanne Clark FCHhemtUu rawcMIon Ronald Cllngman Kenee Cllthero rrt neotcei, mo� � three copies and make sure that they all had been made correctly on the final copy, that they had been converged right. Then, for another two weeks she worked in the Excerpts Department, helping to put together the December issue's Campus Comedy section. That involved reading about 17 nine- inch stacks of contributions from way back, Wittry said. She even came across a contribution from a student at MMSU in 1979. It was something about the Physical Plant people scraping snow really early in the morning, and some guy yelled at them out of a window, Wittry explained. It wasn't very funny, but I knew it had happened here — I was sure. The Reading and Cutting Staff was Wit- try's next assignment. What did she do while in that department? They have a list of magazines and newspapers that you have to read, cover to cover, every article, and evaluate whether it is possible to use it as a pickup' for the magazine, Wittry said, explaining that previously printed ar- ticles from other publications makes up about half of the content material of Reader's Digest. I read a lot of Wall Street Journals, she added. However, Wittry's summer was not all work and no play. She took advantage of the chance to experience the excite- ment of the Big Apple. Being in Hew York for a summer is a fantastic opportunity culturally, Wittry said. It was really interesting just to walk around. Wittry's walking adventures led her to many of the well-known sections of the city, like nearby Greenwich Village, Little. Italy, and Chinatown. She even traveled on the subways without being mugged. Once I rode at night by myself, which is not a smart thing to do, Wittry said. She explained she and her roommate had been shopping uptown until about 7 p.m. on a Saturday night. She wanted to see a show and I didn't. So, 1 walked back through Times Square to the subway by myself. It was just starting to get dark, and all of a sud- den I realized, Oh my God, I'm alone in Times Square, walking to the sub- way! ' Wittry said. Obviously, Wittry survived Hew York and returned to the rural Midwest with a wealth of experience and wisdom. I went to my grandparent's farm for a few days and felt how neat it was to be in wide open spaces, Wittry said. It was neat to see that juxtaposition of the cultures. I knew that Hew York really wasn't the culture that I belong in. ----------Mike Odneal---------------- HITTING THE BOOKS Returning back to the ho- hum college life is OK for Karman Wittry. sr.. as she managed to keep herself busy with all her other campus activities.

Photo by Matt Blotevogel NOTCD MUSICIAN The most important thing for me to do with my talents is to give them back to God, Doug Teel, a fifth-year senior music education major said. Working with people who have a specific purpose — to glorify God, that's just one more way to link everybody. For a man to hold a conviction in such a world as this requires that he have faith, faith to persevere through both the good and the bad, the ups and the downs, the praise and the criticism. It seems Doug Teel can hold his convic- tion. I feel that I've really been blessed this year in general with all the chances to be in positions of leadership, with Franklin Street and Public notice, Teel said. Working with peers is nerve-rack- ing, Teel said. There are people in Franklin Street who have been there as long as I have, so it's hard to lead them. After I made sure that everyone is doing what they're supposed to, I get back in line and am just another performer. As a performer, Teel said that audi- ence imput affects an entertainer's per- formance. He said that facing a non-re- ceptive audience can present itself as a real challenge. If you're watching a per- formance and you're smiling, a perform- er is likely to look back to you several times. It's hard to keep a good mood and smiling when you look around and the audience is all frowning, he said. In addition to being the Music Director for the Franklin Street Singers and Pub- lic notice, a choir from the Baptist Stu- dent Union, Teel has been involved in many other activities around nMSU. These activities included the nEMO Singers, marching band, concert band and jazz band. In jazz band he plays lead alto saxophone. ”1 began playing the saxophone in fifth grade, Teel said. That was when I first started to get into music. “When I first came to northeast, I was thinking pre-med. Then I went to busi- ness, then music and eventually music education, Teel said. The Phi Mu Alpha music fraternity opened a lot of doors for me. That was the first year that anybody here found out that I could sing. During the summer of 1984 Teel and three friends formed a quartet, audi- tioned, and were hired to perform at Worlds of Fun amusement park near Kansas City. That fall 1 joined Franklin Street, Teel said. The summer of 1985 also proved to be an interesting one for Teel. He was se- lected to be a member of the Walt Disney World All-American College Band. It was just incredible, Teel said. When I got that letter saying I was going to Disney World, I couldn't even fathom being in the same group with the best musicians in the United States. I just don't think of myself as that caliber. I was playing with the best musicians in the nation, so it was a lot of fun. When you're here, or in any comfortable envi- ronment, you tend to get sort of compla- cent, but when I was in Disney World, I was about the worst player there and I'm sure other people felt that way about themselves. Everyone tried harder. After college I plan to teach in a high school fora while, Teel said. 1 may get my master's before I do anything though. I might like to teach in a small college. It would be ideal to have a jazz de- partment, with jazz bands and vocal groups, too. I've also thought about working at a Christian college. Jazz was my first diversion from pop music during high school. I started get- ting into groups like Spyro Gyra. From there I just went down the jazz road from fusion to big band and to be-bop. In the last couple of years I've listened to much contemporary Christian music. That music says a lot. So, what does Doug Teel think about Doug Teel? As a singer I'm not the best; I'm not the worst either. It comes back to God. He's given me some talents and I need to use them, but its none of my doing. I'm responsible for them and I need to work on them so that God can be glori- fied. It's not like I think I'm wonderful or anything. ------------- Kirt Manuel------------ People 225 Seniors €dae Laura Edge Sfwh r� tho(og Karen Edwards CvMyu Adm4fW«rjlioo Todd Edwards rhf%KJl Cdo Jlkoo Tony Edwards emvoomtnol Vkrxf Claes Egnell BvWKtt AdmlncMuOon Anne Eikcn Hook tfoncmlaSotrm UcjUon Pcnne Eiken rood� and nutrition Janelle Elmore AuoufltinQ Angela Elson Education William Ensminger A CuSkftCM Bulcnt Enustun BudnCM AdmMMratlon Randy Erickson Induitnal Occupac n� Tammy Erickson Statistic Jill Erlandsen L«ral Art� Shelly Estes Chemistry Gina Ewart Accounting Douglas Ealler Business Adnsnlstcation Barbara Earnen Accounting Initial failure spurs Neuner in drive to join and then lead a campus and its organizations YOU DESERVE A BREAK TODAY Bonnie neun- er, sr.. Student Senate president, takes a break at the annual activities fair. Bonnie attended many functions thoughout the year to listen to students' views. Photo by Matt Blotevogel__________________________ IN FOUR FULL V€RRS What is it like to be one of the most known people on campus? For the answer to that question just ask Student Senate President Bonnie Neuner. Neuner, a senior pre-law history ma- jor from Linn, Mo., feels that her col- lege career has almost been a rags to riches story. During my freshmen year, I ran for Student Senate and the Sudent Activ- ites Board and lost both, Neuner said, “but I never gave up, and made it the second time around. With these successes under her belt, there was the beginning of her road to the top. Besides being a member of Student Senate and SAB, she also joi- ned Phi Alpha Theta (honorary history fraternity) of which she is now presi- dent, and is also on the pre-law adviso- ry committee. When asked why she wanted to be a part of so many organizations and ac- tivities, she said she always wanted to be a part of student government. I've been encouraged by many peo- ple to join the organizations. I have. I was associated with Susan Plassmeyer before coming to school here, and she encouraged me to try for SAB. I also work for Walter Ryle on campus and he influenced me to continue these en- deavors. Even with all the organizations and activities she has been involved with she does have one experience that is really unforgettable. When I ran for Student Senate presi- dent, I met so many people and through meeting all these people 1 have attained a diverse background, Neuner said, this background has helped me because there is now no as- pect here at NMSU that 1 have not had some contact with. This contact has taught me to be prepared for any- thing. After graduation, Neuner will attend law school, preferably at the University of Missouri-Columbia. With all that she has going on at once, does this have an effect on her GPA? These activities have been hard on my grades, but I still have a pretty good one. Although it's not a 4.0,1 wouldn't trade all the experiences I have had for one. ----------- Wanda Stone ----------- People 2 2 fi Seniors Farrell Patricia Farrell Mai� ComrmrMjIUn Charlene Paulkncr Auou rt] Sheryl rechtllng 8uUiku Edueuoon Rodney Tchlhafcr CrtmUjI JuiOcc Pel-Wen Feng Bv%to€xs A4rJnl«rjOon Deirdrc Findling Elementary MauOon Martha Pishcr MWh Education Mary Managan Interpersonal Communication� Kenjamin Ployd CiMul Juttke Carol Pocrster interpersonal Communications Peter Poggy InduslrSil Occupation� Paul Pongkwa Economic� Nancy Popma CMi) Oestlcpment Lonnie Porrest BioiOO Jonl Poster Crtmtnal Juttke Douglas Pox Industrial Tcchnolo® Jeffrey Pox Accounting Jill Pranck MI-CH A nWll it«n Sue Prccman Oraltlng and OcUgn Jane Frizzell Social Science education Becky Fulmer Bu� a� eM MmWjiraKn Lynette Punkc Mathematic� Education Natalie Funke Computer Science Mark Carton Spanish Susan Gaughan «mac Sandra Gilbertson Clothing and leatite� Aetattiog Matt Gildehaus Suihcu AdmWst atkn Diane Glidewell CWoffl Mark Goddard Busk � AdmtnUtiatton William Goers Mathematica Kim Poh Goh finance Dana Gooden Speech radiology Bradley Gosney Bull neu Administration Cynthia Gray Accosndng Lisa Gray Butlncaa Administration fiancee Gray History Ernest Green Builneaa Administration Josephine Green EmVonmental Science Scott Griffith Lisa Grubrlch Business Administration Paul Gustafson Environmental Science Education Lisa Maas Elementary Education Sherri Maas Speech radiology Mohamed Maek Computer Science Christine Magen Computer Science Steve Maight Accc-c.tlog Dianne hall nnance Greg Malvcrson rhyskal Education People 227 Seniors Hamachek People Timothy Mamachek Electronics Trisha Hamm Ouilwu Administration Jane Hampton Accounting Erik Hansen Butlneu MmMUfjilon Jacquelyn Hanson Clothing and Tetlllrt KcUllng Betty Harbal Business Administration Lori Harness Music Education Bradley Harris Ay� Business Gayla Harrison Agrl-Buslne� Christine Hart rsjehotogy Barbara Haug Sociology Lori Hazelwood Market V-.} Lisa Hechler nmtnui) Uuudcn Mark Hechler rrcOstcopathtc.'Bioiogy Marisa Hecker Legal Sttitmy Sally Heisler HMhtmMlCi MuCKlCO Beth Helsse ■lurking Paul Helton Computet Science Mariane Hemming M s CommufttCACton Kevin Hendricks rre-Yctcrtnary Lori Hermann Speech rathcac-ay Pat Hernandez Criminal Justice Sandra Hernandez Mall Communication Penny Herren Social Science Judy Herrera Biology Kristin Hcrshman Accounting Lori Heschke Home Economics Paul Higdon f USIc Shinji Hirabayashi Computer Science Rita Hiscocks Interpersonal Communications Kristopher Hisle interpersonal Communication� Michael Hoekel trviunrui Technology Ellen Hoclschcr r� )choiogy irc Julie Hoffmann Speech IMthotogj Anita Hofman Murslng Nancy Hogan vocational Home Economics,'CTIt Richard Hollowell Huilntu Admins ration Paul Holtrtip Accounting Kathle Hood Mass ComnxmfcaOon Sarah Horning Spanish education Scott Horras Criminal Justice Marnita Howald Speech rathoiogy Rita Howdeshell Management Eric Howell Business AdmMstratlon Chlh-Chen Huang AcconnCksg Antoinette Hughes Gutlnni AdmJnWfjUon John Hulse industrial Science Susan Humes Child Development 228 Seniors Humphrey Joetta Humphrey Burinctt Adn-Jniwiallon Denise Hunsaker CrUrtrUl JoMJtt Daniel Hunt Industrial TfCtuKto© Kelly Hunt Cl nu y MucaUon Joan Huntaberger Bvilnm Mutation James Hurst nucka Mtute Kim lossi Mu k Terry Irick BuHneu AdmlntaUMIon Jo Vcta Isgrig tkmwiuo Mot Jiloo Ruknul Islam Ccntputo Wtixe Kimberly Jackson CKmcnuay Mutation Darrell Jaeger Induttrtai Ttthncaog� Alicia Jarboc EJtmcnu y Mutation Lois Jaynes InduMrtal Tcthnotov Dennis Jenkins roWcal Science Joy Jenkins Inttrptrtonal Communkatloni Adam Jennings Bu� me� � AdmlntoUOon David Johnson RccrraOon Senior theoter mojor claims the spotlight with hard work, declaring that THE NAME OP FAME Having the same name as another actor. Shawn Cassidy, sr.. performs dur- ing fiMSU Live. Cassidy took time off from school to study in California. Photo by Bryan Hunt IT'S MOR€ THAN A NAM€ Life consists of choices that are made consciously and subconsciously. They're all important. You have a bigger part (in life) than you may think, senior Shawn Cassidy said. Originally a pre-law student enrolled at Lewis University, he chose to transfer to Culver-Stockton College. From there he made another choice to study speech and communication at MMSU. The summer before attending MMSU, Cassidy was involved with the Summer Play in Kirksville. When school started, he went on to be seen as Buck in A Mid- summer Might's Dream, his first ap- pearance as a MMSU actor. After that performance, I was addicted, Cassidy said. He would go on to be seen in many more plays and to direct at MMSU. During his senior year, Cassidy found himself out of money. He traveled to San Francisco where he found a temporary job while gaining practical experience in the theater. During his stay in California, he worked both on stage and behind the scenes. He was the artistic director of a show to benefit the homeless. Cassidy's other interests besides act- ing and directing, are singing, dancing and playing the guitar. After his year and a half stay in Califor- nia, he decided to return to MMSU. “Just when you think you've got a hold of the theater, you realize that it has a hold of you and you need to do it desperately, Cassidy said. During his last year here, he has per- formed in 'Clothes for a Summer Hotel and in Mikado. For his lead role in Mikado he received a nomination for the Irene Ryan Scholarship. Cassidy said teaching interested him. He will spend his last semester student- teaching and then graduate in May. After graduation he is looking forward to be- ing employed with the company Bass Film Productions. He said he will always love the theater and act in plays throughout his life. When asked if there was anything he's looking forward to doing, Cassidy said, ”1 have never written and I'd like to try, -------------Matalie Kim-------------- People 229 Seniors Johnson Ellen Johnson RuvnfM M.

Index staff photo IRVING IT ON TH€ UN€ During the 1985 football sea- son, the NMSU Bulldogs had one of the most explo- sive offensive attacks in the nation in Division II. As a matter of fact, they led all Division II teams in total of- fense. It was an offense that could strike at any time and when the Bulldogs needed the big play, they called upon their three All-Americans, quarterback Chris Hegg, wide receiver Larry Tisdale and running back Andre Gillespie. Two of these three All-Americans went on to pursue a chance to play professional football. Hegg, who quarterbacked that team to an 8-3 record, was drafted in the elev- enth round of the national football League draft by the Atlanta Falcons. Tis- dale, who holds the school record for most touchdown catches in a season with 11, was not drafted by an NFL team but did have a week-long tryout with the St. Louis Cardinals. Both Hegg and Tis- dale were eventually cut. It came down to them keeping just two quarterbacks.

They (the Cardinals) said that they needed some wide receivers. They brought in 15 new wide receivers and had five receivers already. They cut all 15 rookies plus a veteran, so they didn't keep any receivers. It wasn't a matter of talent, but a matter of space on their team. It was a weird situation, Tisdale said. Hegg led the nation his senior season in the total offense category, exceeding more than 400 yards per game. He was named to three All-America first teams and went through a four week training camp last summer. I think the toughest part of training camp was meeting new people and try- ing to get the system down, Hegg said. nevertheless, Hegg was thrilled with the Falcons' selection of him. I was elated. I thought I would be signing as a free-agent with Denver, but then Atlanta called. I was ecstatic and went out and celebrated. Hegg said it was tough to watch the Falcons on television last season, but fun to see all the players he practiced with. About his tryout with the Cardinals, Tisdale said, It was good. When I got out there and started practicing I gained a lot of confidence because I thought that I was as good as anybody there. I thought I had a real good chance to make the team. Tisdale said the biggest difference be- tween the play in the fiFL and college was the physical contact of the players. The contact is harder. The players are bigger, stronger and faster in the pros. The average hit in tryouts is one of the harder hits you get at northeast. You definitely know that you're playing somewhere different. ”1 saw one defensive lineman pick up a running back, clear off the ground, slam him to the ground — like he was nothing. I turned to Freddie Thompson (former NMSU player), and he said Welcome to the NFL.' That's when I knew I was really playing with the big boys. Hegg's future plans for professional football are on hold until February when he meets with his agent to discuss tryout possibilities with other NFL teams. Hegg said he had no perference of what team, just as long as he gets a chance to tryout again. As for Tisdale, no plans are official and he won't know until January. Tisdale said if the opportunity arose that he would tryout for a Canadian football team.

Starting at age 17. Hansen has progressed in the American game consistently. Photo by Tim Barcus ON€ WAV IS NORWAV He didn't start playing bas- ketball until he was 17 years old, but since then, senior Erik Hansen has come a long way in his brief, but suc- cessful stint as a basketball player. Bom and raised in Drammen, Norway, Hansen was unfamiliar with the sport of the basketball and never played it as he was growing up. For many years, the 6- foot-9-inch center for the NMSU Bulldog basketball team played team handball. It was not until seven years ago that his brother got him interested in basket- ball. Now, Hansen wishes that he would have started playing sooner. It's a lot of fun. It's a fast-paced game. I like basketball because things happen all the time and it' fast. There's not that much difference, though be- tween basketball in Norway and the United States, except that it's more physical in Norway,” Hansen said. Hansen came to the United States as a high school foreign exchange student for one year, where he played basketball at Sumner High School in Sumner, Wash. After returning to Norway, when the program ended, he came back to the U.S. to get an education and play basket- ball at NMSU. A graduate assistant coach from Nor- way, contacted Head Coach Willard Sims and that is how the burly Hansen found himself in Kirksville. “He was the contact. He was the one responsible for me being here,” Hansen said. Since Hansen had already come to the U.S. before coming to NMSU, he knew what to expect. “It wasn't really that hard coming from Norway to the United States, there's not that much difference. It was the transition from high school to col- lege that's what was hard for me,” Han- sen said. As for the future after graduation, he will look to the two places which he can call home, Norway and the U.S. --------------Jamie Knapp-------------- Kim Me Kay Bvtlneu Administration Leona Me Kay r� ycho 0© Education Lillian Me Kuln Accounting Mike Me Meley Animal Science Terri Me Mullen Crtmlnal JuMlee Debra Me Phcrson tieme«JO Education Robert McCarty r� }Cl� OtOSD Brldgett McMonc r� yel oto® Jean Melnke EuUku AdmW.v.r tlon Jennifer Mciser mwoey education Margaret Meyer Lee Mickael EltCtrtC } Electron .} Grady Miller Bloto® education Laura Miller rsuralng Susan Miller Vocational Home Economic Tamela Miller Mathematic education Thomas Miller Agrtcsatvfe Mary Mlnard Element r} education People 233 Seniors Students take the opportunity MASTER OF THE ARTS Joni Kuehl. sr., works with pottery for a class assignment. She was one of the chosen to attend the Costa Rican exchange program this year. Echo Staff Photo to experience different ideos ond leorn to €XCHflNG€ CULTURES A mixture of internal conflict and economic turmoil is the image many people re- ceive when Central Amer- ica is mentioned. However, despite neg- ative impressions, several HMSU stu- dents have first-hand experience that dispels these popular beliefs. The national University of Costa Rica and nMSU participate in an exchange program that allows students to attend the other country's universities. nMSU senior Kert Hubin returned from a nine- month stay in november. Americans don't pay much attention to our neighbors in the south. We need to increase awareness and heighten sensitivity to the situation in Latin Amer- ica,” Hubin said. Costa Rica is a Spanish-speaking country with a democratic political sys- tem. Although the culture may differ from that in America, Costa Rica is not characterized by poverty or political vio- lence. One of the most obvious difficulties for the students in the exchange pro- gram is becoming fluent in another lan- guage. To be selected for the program, an HMSU student must exhibit compe- tency in Spanish. This is evaluated through course work, consideration by a faculty committee and an essay the student writes about himself in both Spanish and English. Instead of being involved only in the nine-month program, students have the opportunity to visit the Latin American country for two months during the sum- mer. Senior Joni Kuehl participated in both programs offered by the University. I felt like I was prepared, especially since I had been there before, but it is always challenging to understand the people because they speak very quick- ly,” Kuehl said. All of the classes in Costa Rica are taught in Spanish. “I thought I was pre- pared when I went,” Hubin said. “Getting used to the classes was a big stepping stone. It took me a whole se- mester to get really proficient because the language barrier made everything more difficult.” The campus in Heredia, Costa Rica is about the same size as HMSU but is dif- ferent because of the arrangement of di- vision areas. Different disciplines are each organized into separate schools with their own buildings. But the ar- rangement of the campus and the lan- guage spoken in classrooms are not the only difference. “I was not prepared for the differences at the university, Hubin said. “I thought the classes were somewhat dis- organized compared to here. The ap- proach is very laid-back. People talk while the professors are lecturing and it is accepted. The sides of the classrooms are open because of the heat and you can hear people hollering outside right next to class. I was used to quiet class- rooms and found it very hard to concen- trate. In addition to a new classroom atmo- sphere, students also must become ac- quainted with a new culture found in the home. The university does not have campus housing so exchange students live with a local family. Kuehl lived with the same family she lived with during the summer program in the neighboring city of Alajuela. All of the people are very friendly and love Americans, Kuehl said. “My family was very supportive. Kuehl and Hubin both agree that they would recommend the exchange pro- gram to anyone whether or not they are People 234 Seniors .1 Th a Spanish major. Their personal rea- sons for going include an obvious inter- est in the Spanish language and a desire to travel and get to know a totally differ- ent culture. “The ways the program has and will continue to benefit me are limitless, Hubin said. “You get to know a totally different culture, you become familiar with how others live, conduct their hou- seholds and businesses. Also, living in a native-speaking country allows you to become fluent in a second language. “When I came back to the United States everything seemed so easy be- cause I didn't have to convert things or think in another lauguage, Kuehl sai ‘ The exchange program usually ir volves two semesters in Costa Rica, fror February to Hovember. One or two sti dents are chosen and are provided wit! all housing and tuition costs. Vera Gomez Piper, instructor of Lan guage and Literature, advises student: visiting her native country of Costa Rica plus accompanies the summer group. “The trip allows the student to be come totally immersed in another lan guage and culture, Piper said “Students grow as people and leam tc become more tolerant of other beliefs and people. The benefits gained are defi- nitely worth the cost. The eight-week session includes a trip to Panama, a visit with the president and travel throughout the country to provide students with a cross-sectional view of the country. Junior.Tina Hammond was one of the group member involved in the latest summer program in 1985. “The program teaches you to be more open to different ways of thinking and not to be prejudiced, Hammond said. ----------Michelle Blotevogel---------- Mitchell Cheryl Mitchell rhjvc !

Fuji — all of these are places senior Barb Diet- rich could once be found during her four years at HMSU. Since her freshman year, Dietrich has been involved in a wide variety of activi- ties. In her freshman year she joined Sigma Tau Gamma Beta Babes and par- ticipated in hall activities. Dietrich said she tried to add a few new activities every year. I try to do a lot of different things; ev- erything I have been in has helped me grow in some way by letting me move in lots of different circles,'' Dietrich said. Dietrich has also been involved in Stu- dent Ambassadors, Gamma Phi Delta social sorority. Student Senate, Interna- tional Association for Business Com- municators and Bridges to International Friendship. Every year I tried to do something new,'' Dietrich said, Sometimes I wish I could have put all my efforts into just one or two activities — but I don't regret being in all the things I have been. Dietrich also was a resident advisor in Brewer Hall, a Homecoming Queen can- didate in 1985 and participated in the summer Japanese Language and Cul- ture Exchange in 1986. One of the most exciting and surpris- ing things that happened to me was be- ing nominated for Homecoming Queen. It was something I'd never dreamed of and really showed me that I did Know a lot of people, Dietrich said. Dietrich served as an intern in the Pub- lic Relations Office and plans to eventu- ally work in that field in the future. I never realized how much I could leamjustfrom doingan internship, she said. It feels like a real job and I'm put- ting everything I have learned in the classroom so far to use. I'm a student, but I don't feel like it. This has definitely helped to prepare me for a job in my field. Take advantage of the things you can while you're in college — that's what college is all about. You may never have the chance to experience these things again, Dietrich said. -----------Callen Fairchild --------- People 236 Seniors PoHvoat riancy Pollvogt Anlm !

Growing up in Rolla, Mo., ever since he was big enough, he and his two older brothers would go out in the backyard and play football. That was how I got interested in foot- ball, going to all of my brothers' games and practices,” Evans said. My brother Rick got me started in football. He was the most influential. He did a lot for me, I owe a lot to him.” Evans started playing organized foot- ball in eighth grade, where he was much smaller than other kids his age. Despite his small size, Evans went on to become second-team all-state his ju- nior year in high school and first-team all-state his senior year at wide receiver and honorable mention all-state at de- fensive back. Several schools recruited Evans out of high school in 1983, most notably Iowa, Michigan State, northwestern, Illinois State, Auburn and some Big Eight schools. After they found out how small I was, I never heard from them again. I was pretty set on going to northwestern for pre-law, but when they found out about my size I never heard from them again either,” the 5-foot-7-inch wide receiver said. Evans was then faced with a problem. He had nowhere to go to school. Enter nMSU into the picture. Evan's high school football coach, Jim Anderson, came to nMSU after Russell's junior year to become offensive coordinator for the Bulldogs. When he found out that 1 wasn't go- ing anywhere to college, he called me. I came up here because 1 knew the offen- sive system pretty well and I wanted a chance to play,” Evans said. Evans said the transition from high school to college football was no prob- lem. It was no big deal. I didn't see any- thing really different myself. The only thing I can think of is that football is a lot more scientific in college than in high school.” Evan's progression during his career at nMSU was marred by a serious knee injury his sophomore year. That's my only regret. Sometimes I think back at that and what would have happened if I wouldn't have done that,” Evans said. It was Evans' junior year that pro- pelled his career. 1 wanted to get a 1,000 yards in re- ceiving, but 1 missed by 60 yards, so that kind of gave me a lot of self-confidence going into my senior year,” Evans said. That self-confidence led Evans to many accomplishments in his senior season. He was nominated for the 1986 Harlan Hill Trophy for the top Divison II player in the nation which helped cap off four years of offensive greatness. In his career he was twice selected as the MIAA co-offensive player of the week, he ranks second on the MMSU ca- reer list for receptions (154), first-team all conference in his senior year, holds HMSU's single-season record for recep- tions (82) and yardage (1,167) and he finished second in MCAA Division II for receiving with an average of 8.2 catches per game. So the football that Russell Evans first picked up has been carried this far, and he rarely dropped it. --------------Jamie Knapp------------- BREAKING INTO THE OPEN Quick footwork by senior wide receiver Russell Evans puts him into the fast lane.

Most of the things that I've been asked to do have been for a good cause. Basically, it's a privilege. I feel that it's important to become involved in a variety of activities, but I try to use my time well and not get behind, Eiken said. Sometimes it does get too busy and I have to say that I'm sorry but I can't make it. Sometimes you have to make priorities, that's just a part of it. Eiken and Odneal also acknowledged the fact that it's important to be able to work with people. I have always been involved in groups that deal with people, Odneal said. Odneal is a mass communications major. I really don't know what may have made someone vote for one candi- date over another, but I feel that having people know you or know what you do — it's definitely a factor. People are real- ly important. Eiken mentioned that her work in the residence halls has also helped. Being a resident adviser has done a lot. It's helped me to become more open and it's made making contacts much eas- ier. Eiken is a home economics mass communications major. This is my last full year here and it's really been nice. I'm proud to be a stu- dent at northeast and to take part in Homecoming this way. It's something you never forget. Something you can tell your grandkids someday.

Photo by Matt Blotevogel The man gently handed the girl a half sheet of white pa- per. The message, stamped United States Government, was to be read and then signed. The young girl eagerly began to read. She read the first line. The rest of the mes- sage she Knew by heart. She has been reciting those words since her first day in a public school. The half sheet of white paper contained the words to the Pledge of Allegiance” to the United States of America. Senior Lisa Collins had just become an official citizen of the United States. Collins, bom in Saskatchewan, Can- ada, in August of 1962, vividly remem- bers the day she became an official citi- zen. I was 15 and I wanted to get my driver permit,” she said. To get my permit I had to have a social security number and to get a social security number, I had to claim citizenship.” To claim citizenship, Collins had to go to the federal buildings in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, to meet with a representative of the U.S. government who would swear her in as an official citizen. My brother and I went with Mother to the federal buildings and we met this guy from the government. He was on a circuit-type deal, so he was there every two months to take care of people who needed to apply for citizenship, Collins said. Collins and her brother then had to pose for passport pictures to be at- tached to their citizenship papers. The official then handed them the half sheet of white paper. I looked at it and said 'I pledge alle- giance to the flag...' and I thought, hey, this is the Pledge of Allegiance. It was re- ally neat because all through elementa- ry school we said it and I don't think we really thought about it. It just made me think about being a U.S. citizen and what it really meant,” Collins said. Although she has lived in the U.S. since the age of three, Canadian blood still runs deep in Collins' family. The Collins' settled in Dubuque, Iowa, in 1965 and despite the distance from their roots, the local people of Dubuque had no doubt about their new neighbors' past. We still celebrated the Canadian hol- idays. We celebrate Boxing Day, Domin- ion Day and other Canadian traditional days,” Collins said with a grin. Boxing Day is celebrated the day af- ter Christmas. Traditionally, Christmas Day is reserved for the family, while the following day is spent venturing to friends' homes with presents and goo- dies. Thus, since you box the goodies, you have the Canadian Boxing Day,” she said. “We have relatives that come up and visit every Boxing Day and we exchange gifts,” Collins said. Another time that proves interesting every year for the Collins', is the early part of July. In Canada, the citizens cele- brate their independence on July 1 with Dominion Day. This is only three days before the traditional United States In- dependence Day on July 4. We always fly both flags starting on July 1. And every year, people always say we are three days early, Collins said. Although Collins has lived the majori- ty of her life in the United States, her spe- cial birthplace will always be remem- bered. I probably won't pass down the tradi- tions as much as my father, but I will probably always celebrate the Canadian holidays, she said. I guess when they say Home is not where you place your hat, it's where you place your heart,” they know what they're talking about, just ask Lisa. -------------Martin Cox--------------- Lisa Yount NuOlna Gust Zangrilcs AdminIKrjUon Kimberly Zelger tmerpcnonM ConvnunKHom Melinda Zimmerman A Mturt Corucnuilon Jane Zmolek UcrrxnUiy MwCJOOn William Zuspann BwUMU A.S Jnl rjUon People 243 Senior The challenge to be someone he's not, do something he usually doesn't, con allow him to WHAT'S THE LIME?

Index staff photo ACT HIS OWN PART Senior Jason Grubbe has been acting for 12 years; beginning as a junior high student. I found out I enjoyed acting and stayed with it. When you're 14 you're not old enough to realize how bad you are — so you stick with it, Grubbe said. Grubbe is a theater major from Cedar Rapids, Iowa and first came to HMSU in 1979 after living in Austin, Texas for year after high school graduation. During his first two years at HMSU, Grubbe acted in several productions, including Hold Me'' and The Cherry Orchard. In 1981 Grubbe left Kirksville to spend several years acting in Denver and Chicago. Chicago's a good place to get started since the cost of living is only about half as much as in Hew York. It's also easier to get parts and get your face seen,” Grubbe said. Grubbe returned to HMSU in the fall of 1985 to finish his degree. He performed in Romeo and Jeanette, The Rivals and Zulu the King, among other productions. Grubbe also directed several lab shows, including Muzeeka and 'dentity Crisis. The challenge acting presents was what Grubbe described as being his favorite thing about acting. The challenge of assuming another personality is fascinating. I enjoy trying to get people to forget I'm Jason Grubbe and believe I'm the character I'm portraying, Grubbe said. He said the worst thing about acting is dealing with difficult directors. “I have had to deal with a few incompetent directors; I tend to do things my own way, Grubbe said. While some actors do not enjoy practicing, Grubbe said he enjoys rehearsals. People 244 Seniors I like the whole process — exploring the role, having fun during rehearsal, trying new things. It's fun, especially with improvisation. It gives you a chance just to go nuts with it, Grubbe said. After graduation Grubbe plans to return to Chicago. It's a real hoppin' theater town, he said. Grubbe's ultimate goal is to own his own theater. I'd like to have the freedom to choose, direct and act in plays. Someday I'd also like to go to California and try film acting. It's a totally different approach to acting, Grubbe Said. Although much of his time is spent working in theater, Grubbe also enjoys reading and playing the drums.

People 245 Undergraduates Freshman chosen by governor to represent her oge group on topics of PRIVATE BOARD MEETING Jane Ycckel. fr., barely has time in her day to study. The task force obligations she Is involved in kept her busy. Photo by Margaret Blouin ADOl€SC€NT S6XUALITV My roommate told me the Governor's Office called while I was out ' laughed freshman Jane Yeckel. I said. Yeah, right not believ- ing a word.” But her roommate was tell- ing the truth. Yeckel was appointed Oct. 3,1986, by Gov. John Ashcroft to the Task Force on Unwed Adolescent Sexual Activity and Pregnancy, a committee whose goal is to decrease sexual activity among ado- lescents and thereby decline unwanted pregnancies. Ashcroft contacted President Charles McClain to find someone under 20 who would be a good person to fill the ado- lescent position on the committee. 1 had met Jane with her parents pre- viously and had had some contact with her after school began,” McClain said. Since Jane is from an urban area, where at least the number (of pregnan- cies) seems higher, and since it had to be a female, 1 felt she would be a good person for the position.” The committee had met once a month since October 1986 and will continue to meet until December 1987. The task force hears speakers, re- searches issues related to its goals and discusses possible causes and effects. At the first meeting, 1 pointed out to the committee that even if a girl doesn't get pregnant, she can still be devastated by emotion and psychological effects from sexual activity,” Yeckel explained. Embarrassing remarks can only be ex- pected when one serves on a committee about sex, right? Well, some people do say things like 'What kind of prude are you?' but they are almost always just joking,” Yeckel commented. In fact, people ask me about it. They talk to me in my classes and ask ques- tions about what the committee is doing and what it exactly is. Hardly anyone is mean.” As a committee member, Yeckel can include personal input to the pre-marital sex discussions, a topic she takes seri- ously. She said she tries to be impartial. ----------- Kirt Manuel ------------ Dave Barla. fr. Aikk 1.1 Barnes, fr. Leslie Barnes, fr. Mary Barnes, so. Chris Barnett, jr. Amy Barnhart, fr. Noelle Barr. fr.

Piece by piece, stick by stick, o man of many colors is built from the couches and mouths of many GUM MOMSTCK Rod fehlhafer, sr.. shows off his gum creation, instead of stamps or coins. Rod chose to collect gum. and his collection is in the form of a monster. Photo by Dixon Munday BUBBl€GUM LOV6RS Oh the days when we were young. Those crazy bug, comic book and bubble gum card collections. Well, when we were sorting through those cards and chewing the gum that came with it, senior Missouri hall Resi- dence Adviser Rod Fehlhafer was pa- tiently waiting for the gum to be thrown away. Yes, Rod has a gum collection — that's ABC gum to finer collectors (al- ready been chewed). Fehlhafer said the collection started when he was a junior at Springville High School in Springville, Iowa. I bought this rock that was called a gum pal' and you're supposed to put your gum on it at night so you don't stick it to something and I just never cleaned it off, Fehlhafer said. Mow the bizarre hobby has led to a molded gum man. ”1 finally finished it at the beginning of this year, that's when I put all the detail on it, he said. He can even remember where and who gave him certain pieces. Part of the selection came when Fehlhafer was a counselor at the Thousand Hills Sum- mer Youth Camp. ”1 let other people contribute. It has a lot of memories on it.” When Fehlhafer sees a particular kind he likes, he asks the person to place it in his mailbox. Other times he grabs it whenever he can. 1 found some stuck to the couch in Ryle Hall and it had all of this little fuzzy stuff on it so I made it into the hair. That gum belonged to Ryle Hall RA ju- nior Brenda Froisland. I knew Rod was a very unique person. I think it's funny that he has a hobby like that and 1 also think it's great that he pursues it, Froisland said. I think it's art and someday it will be in a museum, Fehlhafer said. As for the future of the collection, Fehlhafer added, Tm going to make a gum woman to go with the gum man pretty soon ... they'll probably have gum kids. ------------Greg Swanson---------------- People 249 Undergraduates Cervo Diana Cerva, fr.

Intellectual advice given by Mega's best member who happens to be the smartest person in PRESSING THE POINT Marilyn vos Savant pur- sues her theme on thinking. She visited the cam- pus. and met with students, sharing her knowl- edge on many topics. Photo by Matt Blotevogel TH€ €NTIR€ WORLD At first glance, Marilyn vos Savant seems like any ordinary Manhattanite with her long lanky frame and thick black hair. However, from the moment vos Savant begins speaking, it is clear that she is anything but normal. Nov. 19, vos Savant, hailed as the smartest person in the world, appeared in the Georgian Room of the Student Union Building. Her appearance was sponsored by the Student Activities Board at a cost of $1,000. The SAB promoted vos Savant's appearance by advertising that she has in IQ that is more than 200. According to The Guinness Book of World Records she received the highest childhood score ever on an IQ test. As a 10-year- old, she achieved the ceiling score for 23-year-olds, giving her an IQ of 228. The 1987 edition of The Guinness Book of World records also states that the most elite IQ society, the Mega Society, has 26 members with percentiles of 99.999 or one in one million. Vos Savant received the highest score on the Mega admission test, which was devised by the society's founder, Ronald K. Hoefiin, with 46 of 48 questions correct. Vos Savant's lecture was titled You forgot Your Parachute or Jumping to Conclusions.” The main point of her lecture was the importance of thinking and not forming opinions before all the facts are known. She began by asking the audience to relax intellectually,” by stressing that the less intellectual tension we have, the better the intellectual function. She encouraged the audience to reach toward greatness by letting go of the security that our parents give us. “We got a lot more from our parents than we would like to believe,” vos Savant said. She said they provide us with a false measure of security and we need to be courageous and knock that base out. Throughout her speech, vos Savant told the audience to relax their grip on their own opinions. She continued by saying most people are intellectually apathetic even though they are full of opinions. Vos Savant concluded her lecture by strongly suggesting that each individual should cultivate friendships with those of different backgrounds. By interacting with these people, you can obtain different perspectives. ------------- Katy Askeland------------ People 250 Undergraduates Cleormon C .il he i me Clcarman. fr. Debbie Clift. It.

The staff of the Index didn't know either, so it bravely took on the challenge of rating Kirksville pizzas. If there's one thing students know better than mid-term exams or parties, it's pizza. five local pizza restaurants were rated for a variety of services. Merits were giv- en out to those that added an extra touch to their services. Demerits were given for areas of service that needed changes. Domino's, Kens, Pagliai's, Piz- za Hut and Spiro's were rated. Domino's, Pagliai's and Pizza hut were rated on delivery time and friendli- ness of the deliverers. Ken's and Spiro's do not deliver so their delivery time was considered from the time the pizza was ordered until the staff arrived back at the Index office with the pizza. Categories that the pizzas were rated for included the following: fastest deliv- ery, best crust, best quality toppings, best service, worst service, hottest piz- za, largest large pizza, greasiest pizza, lowest prices, best all-around pizza and the worst all-around pizza. In the fastest delivery category. Pizza AVOIDING THE NOID Kimberly Gcorgcn, so., re- ceives a pizza from the Domino's Pizza man.

All faces were turned upward in attention, but thoughts of the weekend occupied every mind. It was 3:20 p.m. Friday, and the week was officially over. now that free time existed, what was there to do? Several options immediate- ly came to mind — the prospect of a journey home or an impulsive trip to anywhere. Tradtionally a suitcase col- lege ' the University, nestled in the mid- dle of northeastern Missouri, was at least 90 miles away from any city of rea- sonable size. This distance translated into at least a two hour trip in any direc- tion. After I'm done with class, I'm out of Kirksville. I'm in Kirksville to go to class and study. As soon as I'm done with that, zoom — I'm gone,'' junior Dana Voras said. However, if transportation did not ex- ist, students found other alternatives to fill their out-of-class hours. The Student Activities Board offered weekly Friday night movies. Some movies were older, but recently released films like Top Gun and Stand By Me were part of the series. Besides movies, SAB offered activities ranging from a Saturday night dance in Red Bam Park during October to a No- vember excursion to see a dinner the- ater in Kansas City. Again, these activities were not the preference of all students. Some opted tojoin the party-goers. Fraternity parties provided entertainment for individual members and all campus women; how- ever, most men who were not in a frater- nity had to create their own party atmo- sphere. For those over 21-years-old, another option arose. Local bars received pa- tronage from many college students. During the week I have all kinds of stuff to do — meetings and homework. On weekends though, nothing is due to- morrow, so, I go on a binge for the night, senior Robert Norton said. Thousand Hills State Park and Rain- bow Basin Ski Resort were other diver- sions. During warmer weather the point at the lake attracted sun worshi- pers; whereas, winter weather brought skiers to Rainbow Basin's slopes. There are a lot of things to do that aren't established like going to ski. I People 254 Undergraduates Fitzsimmons Liu ritisimmon . If. Lori ritislmmons. (r. Kathy nando� k William n«k.

I study during the day on weekends, but then for a study break I like to go out to the parties on weekend night ' soph- omore Brenda Carmean said. Homework, the last weekend activity desired, was a reality that students had to deal with. Weekends are a break from routine. It's a time to do what I want, catch up without worrying about being some- where at a certain time. It's the time I ar- range my day around what I want to do which often includes school work ' se- nior Renee Schlueter said. So no matter where thoughts wan- dered on a Friday afternoon, the week- end did arrive. The hours were spent in various places doing a wide variety of ac- tivities, but one constant was present — Monday followed Sunday and the rou- tine continued. --------- Melody Marcantonio------- VAIL OR KIRKSVILLE?

Is your class schedule arranged so that you can be in the cafe- teria the entire time it is open? If you can answer yes to one or more of these questions, you might just be calorie-conscious, or you could be the victim of the unrelentless freshman- 15.'' College means freedom to stay up late, come home late, dress the way you want to, choose your own friends... the list is endless and can mean a new way of life. This list also includes the free- dom to eat whatever you want, whenev- er you want, wherever you want to eat it. Complete control over your own diet means new eating habits which can cause a gain or loss in weight. These new eating habits can trigger a weight gain of five, 10, 15 or more pounds. Thus, the term freshman 15. The biggest problem is that students don't regulate what they eat ' director Dennis D. Markeson of dining services, said. Many students said the problem with cafeteria food is not that they eat too much of it, but that a lot of it is starchy or greasy. My main complaint with the food is that too much of it is deep-fried 'junior Amy Brune said. I never ate a balanced meal, I would eat meat and potatoes and never get any vegetables. Professional Food Service Manage- ment (PFM) manages the dining service at NMSU and designs meals with bal- anced nutrition in mind. Markeson said all of the recipes have been nutritionally analyzed within the last three years to try and provide students with meals that promote good health and provide vari- ety. Although no one can tell a student what to eat, PFM tries to make students more aware of what they are eating in several ways. Each cafeteria has a nutri- tional analysis board which tells the per- centages of fat, protein and the number of calories per ounce in the main dishes. This year PFM has also added table tents, which provide information about various aspects of nutrition. Despite all of the information avail- able to increase students' awareness of their diets, extra pounds do creep up on some. However, a number of students find that not eating Mom's cooking has the opposite effect. Everybody at home used to joke that we were all going to gain so much weight when we went to college ' freshman Tara Wemer said. It's really not that hard if you exercise. I didn't gain any weight because I took Health and Well- ness first semester, so I had to exer- cise. In high school I was a lot more active and I was always running around doing something ' junior Ron Nason said. Here, I just sit around on my derriere and enjoy life 12 ounces at a time. Exercise helps bum extra calories for some students, but others lose weight simply because they eat less. I lost weight when I came to school,” fresh- man Ann Thompson said. The food is unappetizing and they make food I don't like to eat. The result of not enjoying the food in the cafeteria is often the munchies. After eating yet another bowl of Lucky Charms with ice cream, hunger pangs often are answered by a call for a pizza or by eating food stashed in a student's room. Having food in your room makes a big difference, said frshman Trina Solo- mon. At home you can get whatever you want to eat, but here, about the only food you can keep in your room is junk food and then you start gaining weight. However, students and scales have re- vealed that the test of making decisions concerning eating habits does not al- ways mean a move to larger sizes. Know- ing the number of licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop might come from experience, but truly health-con- scious students probably just want to calculate the number of calories they bum while eating the tootsie pop. ---------Michelle Blotevogel----------- Undergraduates Gustafson Ann Gustation.

Science now explores the channels of communication ond helps give the direction to be KEYS TO COMMUNICATION Lauren Tctzner. co- editor of the science newsletter Inter nos. gets set for a current press run. Photo by Margaret Blouin AMONG US R6GUIRRIV Meaning “among us in Latin, the “Inter Nos newsletter opened chan- nels of communication for everyone frequenting the Science Hall. The brainchild of seniors Randy and Lauren Tetzner, “Inter Nos, a science newsletter, first appeared in the fall of 1986. “I first saw the need for better commu- nication when the Missouri Academy of Science came and went and no informa- tion made it to the students, Randy Teener, co-editor of the newsletter, said. Students remained uninformed un- less they belonged to special groups or cliques, he continued. “I proposed the idea and it was approved, and from there it's taken off quite well. The newsletter included pieces that better acquaint students with teachers, stories of students' summer trips, cur- rent information on scientific groups and sometimes random interviews of students. “One good thing we helped with was the Missouri Native Plant Society, Tetzner said. They posted signs and we ran an article to increase awareness of the group. The response was over- whelming and now there's a Kirksville chapter. “We ran an editorial that fired up some controversy, Tetzner said. “We accused the administration of not in- forming people about worker's compen- sation. Tetzner was burned in a lab fire and also cut while working for the University. He did not know that worker s compen- sation was available, and neither did a faculty member who helps edit the grammar of the newsletter. “It got some people upset, but it is 100 percent true, he said. The newsletter has helped organize several activities for science students. One activity was a chemical pursuit con- test, a playing tournament of a chemis- try trivia game similar to Trivial Pursuit. “I hope the newsletter is perpetual, Tetzner said. “It's a place for informa- tion to be published without red tape or going through division heads. It helps everyone in the science field to know what current research is being done. “Por this University to be successful students need to be able to express ideas and share experience. The “Inter Nos bridges the gap of communica- tion, he said. --------------Jean Pfeifer-------------- People 259 Undergraduates Student overcomes hordships ond develops philosophy thot helps her jump right into i TAKING A DIVE Lori Tcrzopoulous, so., affec- tionately nicknamed Zop. takes off during a regional competition meet. Photo by Mike Parsons TH€ SWIM OF THINGS Sophomore Lori Terzopoulos strives on, living by a special philosophy. A philosophy that came early to the 5-foot- 7,140 pound NMSU swimmer. A philoso- phy that has got her to where she is to- day, how can you take care of others until you have learned to take care of yourself. When Terzopoulos, known as Zop by teammates and friends, was a senior at Hickman high School in Columbia, Mo., her mother died suddenly of a stroke. With her sisters having their own lives to live and her father in Greece, Zop was forced into independence. Taking care of herself is no problem for Terzopoulos. When Zop graduated from high school in 1985, she had set her goals on attending college but she knew money would be a problem. With NMSU as a choice in the back of her mind and the University offering her a scholarship, her decision was made. Zop said she feels that dreams, hard work and people are all important in be- ing successful and happy, and in taking care of herself. Zop hasn't forgotten about the team. Lori has definitely improved from last year, Chuck Arabas, swim coach, said. She is definitely more competitive and her times are much faster. The ca- pability of her qualifying for nationals this year is not an impossible goal for her, he said. I've always loved to swim, Zop said. Not for the fact of money, but for the fun and thrill of competing. I like being in- volved. Zop has participated in many activities besides swimming. Although her swim practices took up 15-20 hours a week and she carried an average of 16 hours, she still found time to spend as an active member of Kappa Mu Epsilon (a math honor society) and the Delta Chi little sister organization. In addition to taking classes, swim- ming and belonging to two other organi- zations on campus, and Zop has to sup- port herself financially. -------------Mike Parsons------------- Val Hocppner.

Greenfield won an all-ex- pense paid trip for four to Palm Springs, Calf, in a contest sponsored by Campus Voice magazine. “I couldn't believe I won,” Greenfield said. When the man from Campus Voice called my dorm room, I thought it was a joke.” It was the easiest thing I'd ever won,” he said.

Index staff photo next to Palm Springs. The contest included trips to five dif- ferent places. Each entrant was to check one of the places. The other four choices were Dallas, Miami, San Francisco and Daytona. Greenfield was chosen from 18,000 people who entered the contest to re- ceive the trip. I have been contacted several times with different information on the trip since the initial phone call,” Greenfield said. The day after the first call, he re- ceived an affidavit through Federal Ex- press. He was to sign it, have it notarized and mailed back within 10 days. Greenfield and three friends planned to leave for Palm Springs March 6 and return March 8. Along with the free round-trip air fare, the four were provid- ed with two double-occupancy rooms and a total of $500 in spending money. I'm really glad he chose me as one of the people to go along with him,” sophomore Tim Clark said. Sunny Palm Springs beats the snow and cold winds in St. Louis.” Picking only three of my friends for something like this was hard,” Green- field said. Along with Clark, Greenfield invited freshman Andy Fishback and sopho- more Dan Burke. Greenfield planned to spend the ma- jority of his time in Disneyland and also hoped to visit an indian reservation. The other three looked forward to relaxing for hours pool side and enjoying all of the beautiful scenery Palm Springs has to offer. --------Tammy Kopecky-------------- Him natdllc Kirn, fi Donna Kiwcl. so Kill KIM If.

Square sound is no joke , Rockfest explodes to provide alternative and original music READY TO ROCK Members of the band gather to- gether for some last minute preparations before per- forming at the Rockfest. Photo by Paul Gustafson FOR THOS€ UJILLING The Rockfest, sponsored by The Pundit newspa- per and the Internation- al Association of Busi- ness Communicators (IABC), was an innovative idea created by junior Kevin Fitzpatrick that exposed stu- dents and citizens of Kirksville to an alternative form of rock music. Hopefully, we will spark people to take an interest in new music and get them away from corporate music, Brian Wooldridge, 23, said. Wooldridge played bass for The Squares, one of the Rockfest's featured bands. Accompanying The Squares were The Joker s Henchmen, who opened the show and Exploded View, who fea- tured former Kirksville resident Alex Bal- lard on bass. All three bands originated in Milwaukee, Wis., where most of their audiences were small bar crowds. They also played at several dances there. Wooldridge explained that it wasn't the size of the audience that mattered but their attitude. They should have an open mind — we really stress originality. The bands played for three and one half hours to a crowd of approximately 300 peo- ple in Baldwin Auditorium. There was little profit. It wasn't meant to be a money-making event, Fitzpatrick said. We broke even. It was a public relations event. 1 did it as some- thing fun for the students that the Pundit would be associated with, he said. IABC was chosen as a co-sponsor for the event because they were a public relations organization and they had a charter, a re- quirement in the reservation of the auditori- um. By choosing Baldwin for the event, Fitzpatrick wanted to prove someone be- sides SAB can bring entertainment to this campus and community. ---------------Helen Turnbull ----------- People 1 .

If you are a student enrolled for the fall semester at NMSU and planned to spend most of your vacation in Kirksville, then a summer job could be just what you are looking for. According to Ron Gaber, Director of Residence Life, there were many jobs available. Such jobs included: desk staff, host or hostess, maintenance and repairs in the halls. Gaber, who planned to hire between 75 to 100 workers, said that this summer the big demand was for painters. There will be more painting projects being done in the residence halls, and this will take large student groups, Gaber said. Job requirements for summer em- ployment were that a student must be enrolled for the fall of 1987, but not nec- essarily attending summer school and they didn't have to be MMSU students. Other jobs available were at the li- brary, working in the division offices and working for instructors. The jobs allowed the student to work up to 39 hours a week, but if the student chose, they could take fewer. Once the student was hired, on-the-job training was provided. Gaber said the biggest problem with these jobs in the past was that the stu- dents sometimes quit before the sum- mer was up. We sometimes have people that want to take a two week vacation and just quit, Gaber said. Gaber said that if this happened, the student could not use their maintenance job as a reference in future jobs. We ll take seniors who have just graduated, as long as they are enrolled for the coming fall, Gaber said. The jobs, which are institutional and pay $2.85 an hour, gave the student the chance to pick out as many hours as he or she liked throughout the summer. 1 think it's a really good opportunity for anyone who wants steady work, Gaber said.

Photo by Dixon Munday PROBLEMS OF COLLEGE I Know it's not really a big prob- lem, but what can I do? Tor the first time in the Univer- sity's history students with this thought had a place to turn. Last fall the Student Senate established the Com- mittee on Student Concerns to create a channel for students to effectively deal with problems. Whether academic or personal, as long as it was University re- lated, the committee attempted to help. We work on channeling students in the right direction and also as their con- tact, particularly if it is a confidential concern, acting as an objective person from the outside,” Senate Councilwom- an Sue Steinhauser, chairwoman of committee said. We wanted to make sure when we started that we did a good job and didn't slight anybody,” Steinhauser stressed. I think that the cases we have done so far have been successful overall. Our main setback is trying to get students to use it.” One of the problems the committee has taken action upon concerned the Conference Room in the Student Union Building. There weren't paintings of all the presidents, so they've been ordered. Another problem the committee han- dled dealt with ants in a residence hall. The committee took the problem to Ron Qaber, director of resident life, and the problem got some attention. The 12 non-senator members of the committee were appointed by the sen- ate. Steinhauser and Councilwoman Tina Hammond served as permanent members, then chose three others from the pool of 12 to appropriately deal with each concern. The members, recom- mended by senators, were chosen on the basis of involvement and trust. Con- fidentiality was the key to success of the committee. Administrative support for the com- mittee was positive, but an underlying concern was the need for the committee. I wish the University was good enough to put them out of business and I say that in the positive sense,” Dean of Instruction Darrell Krueger commented. ------------ Rita Hiscocks-------------- LeAnn Mattes. fr.

ULihile also HELPING n FRIEND help pay for Duggan's school fees. When I heard he needed some finan- cial assistance, I wanted to help. He's a nice guy and everybody knows him real- ly well. He really cares about us,” fresh- man Jon Byman, Douglas House resi- dent said. Several of the residents organized the fund drive. Together, the men collected more than $400 in donations from stu- dents, staff and others who knew Duggan and wanted to help. The re- sponse from everyone was very support- ive and enthusiastic. One resident of Douglas House said he had a great time getting the money collected. Freshman Sherif Malek was one of the effort's organizers. Basically, we did it because we were selfish. We didn't want to lose Philippe — he's a great RA, Malek said. When we have problems, whether with school work or anything, Philippe's door is always open for us. He cares not just for us as students because it's his job ... he cares bout us as friends and human beings too,” freshman Kevin Kaestner, Douglas House resident said. The whole project was kept secret from Duggan. If Philippe would have known about it, he might have refused the money,” One HMSU student is back this semester due to the efforts of his friends in Mis- souri Hall. The resident adviser of Douglas House in Missouri Hall, senior Philippe Duggan, thought he might not return in the spring due to financial difficulties. 1 didn't think I had enough money for school, and I wasn't quite sure what I was going to do,” Duggan said. Besides a $200 MEMO Singers schol- arship, Duggan had only $114 that he had saved from taking a summer job. If he could not come up with the money, he contemplated staying out of school for a semester and working to raise money. Duggan told his residents that he would try to find some way to return. Seventy-five of those residents decided to give Duggan the best Christmas gift they could.

Right before Christmas break, Malek asked Duggan to go with him into the lounge. Gathered there were the Doug- las House residents, Missouri Hail R.A.s and several other people. Sherif handed Duggan a card containing a check for $405 and receipt for pre-enrollment. Duggan was not sure what was going on. I just looked at it and 1 couldn't be- lieve it — that's a lot of money, Duggan said. Since receiving the gift, Duggan has received two other scholarships as well, just enough to pay for this semester. Duggan said he tries not to preoccupy himself with worrying about expenses. try to be optimistic and think things will work out for me. I have a lot of good friends and a super host family. I figure that things will work themselves out, Duggan said. Duggan admitted that he was worried about how he would pay for this semes- ter. His host family helped pay for his tu- ition since he came to the United States in 1983 as an exchange student from Bangor, Wales. Recently, his host family encountered farm-related economic set backs, which caused Duggan to seek other means of financial support. Duggan first came to the United States through an exchange program spon- sored by the Lions Club. His stay in Keo- sauqua, Iowa, was eight weeks long. However, before those eight weeks were up, his host family asked Duggan if he would like to stay in the United States and finish his education. Duggan attend- ed Southeast Iowa Community College in Burlington for two years before trans- ferring to NMSU. He is majoring in spe- cial education. The 3'h years away from his parents and his friends in Bangor has been long, but Duggan said he gets by with the help of the friends he has made in Missouri Hall. I miss home at Christmas time and I miss my friends back home obviously, but I will feel like I've lost a whole big chunk of me when 1 go home. I feel so close to everybody, it kind of feels like a second home. These guys are just great, Duggan said. He is not sure why his residents did what they did, but he has a few ideas. think the guys genuinely care about other people. I try to give them some- thing from myself and I think they helped me out last semester because they were trying to give me something back, he said. --------------Barb Dietrich----------- •WHALE or A FUND RAISERI Thanks to the efforts of his house-mates, Philippe Duggan, sr„ is able to return to his position on staff at Missouri Mall.

Photo by John Meadows Developing Knowledge and skills to maintain a fitness lifestyle was one of the course objectives of Health and Wellness. William Richerson, Health and Exer- cise Science Division head, said Health and Wellness (HE 194) was designed to establish the continuity that was sup- posed to be present between Health (PE 100) and Physical Activities (PE 101). This class met daily and enabled stu- dents to apply concepts learned. The reaction to the new program was both positive and negative among stu- dents. It may be based on a good principle, but I don't like the way the class has been set up,” freshman Susan Schmidt said. Five days a week is a lot of time devoted to a two-credit physical educa- tion class.” I basically like the class, it is an as- signed time for me to work out which is helpful. It is also teaching me how to set goals and know my limitations of how hard I should push myself,” senior Christine Laird said. The Monday, Wednesday and Friday sessions were directed toward planned physical activities, while Tuesday and Thursday sessions were lectures about health concepts. The physical activities part of the pro- gram divided classes into groups ac- cording to individuals' strengths and abilities which were detemined by pre- testing done at the beginning of the se- mester by the department. These groups were switched from ac- tivity to activity that included jogging, swimming, aerobics, nautilus and free weightlifting. We will be doing pre-testing and post- testing to make students aware of fitness and hopefully show them the impor- tance of good health, Richerson said. The department did testing of the HE 194 classes as well as the PE 100 classes for possible future studies as well as evaluating students fitness. Those students who only took PE 100 or PE 101 before the development of HE 194 had options. If a student took Health and not Physical Activities, any activity class could be used for the general edu- cation requirement. However, if a stu- dent had not taken Health, the student must enroll in the special sections that were offered in the fall, spring and sum- mer. A student could also enroll in Tues- day and Thursday lectures. -------------- Mary Snell ------------- People 7 0 Undergraduates Patton Jerry Patton. so. Lynda PMky. ft. Cj«Ic Payne.

People 272 Undergradutes Wants and needs of students create feeling of isolation and frustration as homesickness is a FAMILIAR DIS€AS€ It is a disease. Almost all college students face it at one time in their college years. Some stu- dents have severe cases; others will catch it from time to time; still others will only have mild forms of the disease. There is no Known cure, no preventative measures to take. Remedies are able to bring the disease under control — at least until it strikes again. What is this disease? Homesickness. Many causes of homesickness have been discovered. It can strike anyone, at anytime; it discriminates against no one. I miss my fiance every day, sopho- more Robin Van Gorp said. I go home SENT WITH LOVE Jennifer Cunningham, (r.. reads a letter in the privacy of her room. Getting mail from family and friends were important to many students. Photo by John Meadows about every weekend. I get homesick because I miss my girl-friend a lot, freshman Bill Kephart said. I get homesick because of the pres- sures of the job and school, sopho- more Janet Claypoole said. And since I live so close to home, it's easy just to go home. I get homesick a lot because I miss seeing familiar people and places that were a part of my everyday life, fresh- man Kathy Hill said. When I get letters from my mom, or when 1 don't get letters for a while, I start to wish I could go home. Usually when 1 get homesick I try to keep myself occupied. Whenever something bad happens and school isn't going well I want to go home, sophomore Chris Funke said. 1 usually call my mom, go see friends, or go for a walk when I get homesick. For those students who have their own transportation, many decided to pack their bags and go home when they felt homesick. Visiting friends and family distracted students from thinking about college pressures. I get homesick when I'm out of money and when I start to miss my friends, freshman Shawn Oberreiter said. I have my own car so I can go home whenever I need to. I usually man- age to surprise my parents by suddenly appearing on the doorstep. When I was a freshman I was home- sick all the time, senior Shelii Ryan said. My roommates were gone, and I spent a lot of time by myself. How I've found friends to do things with. Cameron. Ross. U.

Photo by John Meadows (continued) and my family, Pardue said. ‘And I miss the familiar atmosphere of my room. I miss the freedom of home, since here there are rules to abide by. And I miss good food. The remedies for curbing homesick- ness are as varied as the causes. Howev- er, the predominant remedies are going out with friends and giving the tele- phone companies some business. I get involved in activities in the hall and social activities on campus, Clay- poole said. Seeing a good friend also helps. ”1 try to get around lots of people or I'll call home, Ryan said. I think a lot comes with maturity also. I call my girlfriend, Kephart said. ”1 go out with my roommates and get my mind off of it, De Priest said. I try to get busy with activities in the hall or on campus, Webb said. “There are several programs one can become involved in. “I call my fiance or I try to keep very, very, very busy, Van Gorp said. “I take a walk by myself or turn on the stereo, Werner said. Sometimes I'll go visit some friends. I go out to McDonalds since I used to work there, Pardue said. Or I play some old tapes real loud. Although there are no ways to avoid this disease, take heart, there are ways to lessen the severity.

She was crowned Miss ABC 1987, at the seventh annual pageant, sponsored by the Association of Black Collegians. “ABC acts as the black Student Sen- ate. They represent the black student body. As Miss ABC, I too, will represent the black student body, Metcalfe said. Dwayne Smith, minority counselor and pageant coordinator since 1984, was a freshman when Miss ABC began in 1979. “it has grown so much since my fresh- man year. Back then it was more or less a coronation. Now it gives young black women the chance to express their intel- lect, poise and talent, Smith said. He explained that previously the pag- eant was used as a chance for the ladies to participate in the Miss Kirksville Pag- eant, based on the contestants' talent. But the criteria for Miss ABC changed, as talent became a less important factor. The eight 1987 contestants were judged on their talent, poise and partici- pation in pageant promotion.

Then her eyes became thin slits on her face, muscles twitching, struggling to re- main open. She tried to take notes, but the voice just faded in and out. She lost control, her pen began on wild tangents across the page of her notebook, her fol- der fell to the floor, as her head resem- bled a lead weight, pulled slowly by grav- ity into the palm of her hand. When her eyes closed completely her arm passed from beneath her chin as her head floa- ted to the desk top, leaving her undistur- bed. Sleep is one of those necessities in life that college students just never seem to get enough of. Everyday millions of col- lege students face the problem of get- ting up and staying up for those early morning classes. Alarms went off, but students still ten- ded to neglect them or hit the notorious snooze button at least three times. Fi- nally, the half-conscious student crawl- ed out of bed and somehow managed to maintain a standing position. Students have had trouble getting up for and remaining alert in classes for many reasons. Knowing the high-quality students the value-added program has attracted, I am sure the major reason people can't stay awake is because they spend many hours studying each night,” sophomore Amy Gregory sarcastically said. Other reasons have included partying, working and being too involved in cam- pus sporting or social activities. James Sevems, professor of dramat- ics, explained that students may have had difficulty remaining awake because not all courses were of immediate inter- est to them. Many times the atmosphere added to sluggish behavior. Many instructors blamed poorly lit and overheated rooms as a reason for students to nap in class. Instructors were aware that some stu- dents displayed fatigue during classes. People 278 Undergraduates Trovers Sjmlia Tiavcrv It. Christopher Treece. If. LlM Tribble Jr Kimberly Tripp. 40.

Sal Costa, instructor of psychology, said, To read straight from a textbook is boring and an insult to a person's in- telligence. I try to tell jokes and use dra- matization relating to the subject to hold students' attention. Professional lecturers have said the average group has an average attention span of 20 minutes. Therefore, a break of some sort or a change in activity schould be instituted after that amount of time, to hold the audience's attention. Elizabeth Otten, assistant professor of language and literature, abided by this criterion. She tried to provide various ac- tivities throughout her class to keep stu- dents interested. When people did end up dozing in class, some instructors ignored the situ- ation as long as the sleeping student did not disturb the class. Other instructors have had unique solutions to the prob- lem. Sometimes, more dramatic measures were necessary. Sevems remembered one student who constantly fell asleep in his class. One day Sevems quietly dis- missed the class, leaving the student to wake up in the middle of the following class that had silently filed in. To say the least, the student was upset, he said. Senior Peggy Oshea remembered one day when her friend fell asleep in her three-hour night class. “It wasn't 15 minutes and he was dead to the world, Oshea said. Our teacher soon realized this and had the entire class yell Wake up, it's Tuesday morn- ing!' He was so scared, he must have jumped three feet into the air. Kenneth Stilwell, professor of mathe- matics, said, I don't take it as a person- al insult when someone falls asleep, at least they made an attempt to come to class.” “When a student falls asleep in class, they are the ones losing out, sopho- more Amy Meyer said. They are not awake to absorb the material discussed in class, so their grades may suffer. Getting enough sleep (except during class) was a must. Many students have suffered embarrassing moments and lost out on valuable class time because of their lack of sleep. Besides, who knows what we look like, sound like, or do when we re sleeping. Do we really want our classmates to be the ones to tell us? --------------Vicki Horn------------- LINEN HIBERNATION ShaMi Oberreiter. fr.. par- takes in the essential commodity of sleep, riot enough sleep can put you back in bed.

Photo by Val Mocppncr TH€ N€W Every year, a new sea of stu- dents washes over the cam- pus. And every year, they bring with them a new wave of fads and fashions. The most noticeable changes were in clothing and accessories. For the women, the in things were big, oversized sweaters and loose-fitting blouses that were left untucked. Faded denim was also popular, as Western shirts, skirts and jeans came back into the campus scene. Mini skirts and col- ored high-heeled pumps seemed to be another way of addressing the fashion statements. Accessories were also used in a wide variety. Big broaches, earrings and belts were worn and turquoise seemed to be the big heavy metal. Metallic belts, bows and shoes flashed down the hallways and walkways. Big colorful bows that matched outfits and colored banana combs” with rhi- nestones, pearls accented hair. Hair- styles were usually pulled back into a ponytail or kept short in the bobbed style of last year. Boots were also in style, especially if the pants were tucked into colored socks. For the men, turtlenecks were seen on campus, as well as dress pants with sus- penders. Bright tailored shirts and pais- ley ties were also seen adorning the necks of the male population. Another popular dress style were cut-off sweats and high-top tennis shoes. According to the Index survey of what's in and out , wide silk ties, cleaner looks and classic watches were the keys to success. Unlaced sneakers, contact lenses and crew cuts were defi- nitely out. riot only did the fashion styles change, but so did the ideals. According to the Index survey, romantic marriages and traditional weddings were the in thing for 1987, while profanity and rude- ness were to become things of the past. On a campus of this size, individuality was bound to override what fashion magazines deemed to be acceptable or not. --------------Susie Sinclair------------ Thomas White. Ii. ZMiliquc White. It.

Photo by John Meadows SOUND PHIIOSOPHV The trees lining the pasture were filled with birds floating and fluttering from tree to tree, singing, leading the girl further and further from her grandfath- er's home. This girl was special - different.” She could not hear the spring breeze in the trees, nor could she hear the birds sing- ing. She could not hear her feet crushing the castaway branches beneath her, for she was completely deaf. If I could be anywhere, I would be at my grandfather's farm. I just love watch- ing Mickey (her grandfather's horse) and walking through the woods - grand- father's woods,” she said. Sophomore Minette Stemke was not bom deaf, but by her freshman year of high school, she had lost all hearing. Her twin sister. Marietta, was born deaf. They both are able to communicate by reading lips. An older sister, Marla, also attends NMSU. She is not deaf. I love just talking to Grandpa. I love to walk on his farm, getting my thoughts together,” she said. She began to laugh. Her eyes widened as she spoke of her Grandfather. “He likes to tease people.” College life is not that much different for Stemke. She is awakened mornings by a special vibrating alarm attached to her bed. On occasion, however, it has fallen from her bed and bounced like a ball on the end of a rope. A resident living below Minette called one night to complain about something loudly hitting the ceiling. It happened twice, but the first time I had no idea what it was,” Sternke's former resident adviser, Sandra Newman, said. Stemke is able to keep up with her classes by hiring note takers, or asking friends to sit in a class with her to take notes. Last semester it took me three weeks to find a note-taker. Sometimes when I ask people to take notes for me they gasp and act very surprised, but they usually will,” Sternke said. Another change she has encountered is with instructors. Teachers in high school knew I was deaf and they automatically compensat- ed for it. Here, I have to go up to the teacher and say. Ok, I'm deaf. I may have to ask you questions about class. I may have to come for extra tutoring,” she said. Once, I forgot to tell the teacher I was deaf and he called on me in class. I told him I didn't understand him and I had to read his lips,” she begins to laugh. So he called on someone else. Sternke's hearing loss began at an early age. She received her first hearing aid in second grade. The hearing loss was gradual from then on. In fourth grade, she began speech lessons. From there lessons continued at the Institute for the Deaf in St. Louis. It was there that she learned to read lips. She vividly remembers her prognosis. She recalls the trip to New York's Mayo Clinic for a week of testing. While in the sixth grade, doctors de- termined that her ear's structure was perfect. There was nothing that could be done. That changed the whole way I looked at it. Back then I could still hear, but when they told me there was nothing they could do, I knew it was going to hap- pen,” Stemke said. Within three years, she had lost all hearing. Much of her strength can be attributed to involvement in organizations and ac- tivities. She has gained much confi- dence through the Girl Scout organiza- tion. She is now the president of the Girl Scout organization on campus. It gave me something to be proud of. I got the gold award, which is the highest award you can get,” she said. My mom would keep me up until midnight look- ing at the stars so I could get a badge for it. Scouting is something I could do.” Her love of mathematics and English has prompted her to study accounting. I've had a couple of jobs. Usually they have written down the stuff they've wanted me to do, and I've done it. I think eventually I may have to get an interpre- ter, that may be the easiest, Stemke said. It seems somewhat awkward, but Stemke insists she has no desire to re- gain her hearing. People ask me if I want to regain my hearing, no I do not. I have heard every once in awhile for maybe 10 seconds when I have had new batteries in my hearing aid.” But she has now quit wear- ing the aid. When I hear, it's one big sound. It makes me dizzy because I'm not used to it. And if I could hear. I'd have to learn to hear all over again. I'd have to learn to distinguish between this person and that person. I'd have to take out all the background noise,” she shakes her head. It's just too much trouble. I'm used to this now.” ------------ Kathy Golden ----------- People 283 Undergraduates RcJoms Michael Adams A«c« na Jenifer Anderson s «h raoxxoar Jacqueline Barrow itumin «oouxo Alastair Basden ccunwini ■ . ) Gu.joikc Peter Buban m «ui neaioi coun«.vyj Beverly Casady u� k Mutation Li Chun Chang n«-un Knowta mumjiuum Jana Chapman Auou or a Tung-Shan Chou muouoo A r,m� ir,� ooo Shull Rio Chu humin HOOUKO Scott Determann Animii iieiiih T«hnoio9� William Dichiser Accountng Carol Farrell neam� uxmo« Anthony Ghidorziccwn« ii� }jndOub5 iKc Paul Gies l.ing-Kang Go cot� n i.«a j ouw xt Janis Goodman coun « i j o� w� nct Ann Gordon David Groncfcld sde to Laura Guy Accounting Aziz Maffar v� t� A«v-«ni� ifiu5o C � thw� j Musical direction, strong uuork ethic aided by European background form o mon who hos ENERGIZED CONDUCTOR Michael Braun- Schweizer, graduate student, prepares the Univer- sity orchestra to practice a piece during rehearsal. Braun also played in the group. Photo by Matt Blotevogcl BRAINS AND BRAUN I am convinced that you never stop living as long as you keep learning. Are these the words of a wise, old philosopher? no, not by far. This philosophy is one of Michael Braun-Schweizer, a 32-year- old graduate student from Salzburg, Austria. As a violinist studying conduc- ting at nMSU, you would expect to see him diligently practicing, wearing a black and white tuxedo. Rather, the tall, curly-haired Austrian can be seen strol- ling around Baldwin Hall wearing his fad- ed Levi's, plaid flannel shirt and black workshoes, all pulled together with his wide, colorful suspenders. Although Braun has had much schooling, many jobs and frustrations, he has always kept music as a direction in his life and is still searching for a ca- reer. Braun graduated from the Mozartium- in Salzburg with an orchestral diploma and a string education diploma when he was 26. Teaching was frustrating: I wanted more music, Braun explained of his teaching career before attending the Mozartium. Braun felt he needed to dis- cipline himself more, so he thought the violin would teach him this. Through various odd jobs in Europe and a symphony tour in America in 1979� the unsatisfied Braun moved to America. He began teaching at a Waldorf school in Black Hills. S.D. The Austrian was quick to leam that his European background in education did not work in America. It's artificial; kids are different here, Braun explained. Even though, I would never go back. Braun said he realized he had much to learn, thought he was immature and that teaching wasn't for him. He then moved to Colorado and worked in con- struction. Still not happy with himself, Braun again started thinking about school and his music. That's how he ended up at HMSU. It doen’t bother me that I'm 32 and still don't have a career. I never worry about money; I'll always find something to do. Many more people here in Amer- ica go back to school when they're older than in Switzerland and I think that's great. I enjoy it. According to his philosophy, Braun is still learning and living life to its fullest. ---------------Paula Todd-------------- People 284 Graduates Huong Mci-Ying Huang s«o«- «a Ya-Lin Huang .iu k Greg Landwehr nununrcmuko MiMjtmwi Jennifer Leamons cduuow Bea-Ching Lin Diane Mason MjIhOTUltU Dan Mika viokc Keith Moore OuhUncc d Counxllng Young-Woo Park mcow Julie Prichard nipicd u� � � Juana Risser hum m-okio-.

DcFaula returned from Brazil to cam his master's. Photo by John Meadows There is no time, there is only things to be done.” This thought ran through graduate student Paulo De- Paula's conscience for many years be- fore he began work on his thesis about Cuban theater in exile. In the late 1950s many Cuban actors, playwrights and directors went into ex- ile. They, like many others fled from the Cuban Revolution in order to retain free- dom, freedom from the regime of Fidel Castro. For the past few years DePauIa has been contributing nearly all of his time to discovering the history of the Cuban theater in order to complete his thesis at NMSU as part of receiving his master's degree in allied arts. DePauIa, a 1953 grduate of NMSU, has been more recently instructing in the fine arts. DePauIa has instructed students at John Hopkins University (Baltimore, Md.) and Georgetown University, then returned home to Brazil to work in the- ater and teach at the University of Espiri- to Santo (Vitoria, Brazil). DePauIa is familiar to theater; it has been a big part of his life in his native Brazil. He has been everything from “Fim de Note” (Night End) talk show host, to the writer of “Frei Pedro,” a his- torical play which is performed annually as part of a festival on the sight where DePaula's state won its freedom. With a need to become more educat- ed in the theater, he took a leave of ab- sence from teaching to return to NMSU to earn his master's. DePauIa has been traveling to Miami since 1984 to get to know many of the writers, actors and directors deported from Cuba who had been in the Cuban Revolution. He spoke with them con- cerning their experiences. I am learning about the writers and actors in exile and seeing its blending with American culture,” he said. “My hope for this thesis is that people will see the Cubans' feelings of exile and notice the development of the writings.” DePauIa said his thesis will be done in April, so he hoped to receive his Mast- er's in the spring. DePauIa is planning to return to Brazil after his graduation to re- sume teaching and is not sure if this will be his last contribution to fine arts. --------------Steve Fisher ------------ People 285 Graduates Rnderson Linda Anderson. ftcjn of Student s Office Kathleen Armcnlrout.

International Student Adviser Similarities cause giant '‘leip out of division into a book on o German composer UNDER A WATCHFUL EYE Dale Jorgenson, head of Division of Fine Arts, peers over the mem- bers of the concert band, during a fine-tuning ses- sion. Photo by Bryan Hunt WITH BflCH INT€R€ST Dale Jorgenson, head of the Division of Fine Arts, enjoyed talking about his latest book, Moritz Hauptman of Leipzig.” But, why a book on Hauptman, a man whose work became obscure soon after his death? Most people here know my background in music and understand why 1 wrote the book. I think though, that after the book is printed, there will be some people who ask — Why Haupt- man?” Hauptman was most noted for his work on preserving and piecing together the complete works of Johann Sebas- tian Bach, Jorgenson's favorite compos- er. Most of Bach's works were lost until 1829. In 1830, Hauptman started the Bach Society which devoted its time to putting Bach's works together. The proj- ect was not finished until 1900. Jorgenson's interest in Hauptman was sparked by the similarities he shared with the man. Hauptman was involved in chorale, much as Jorgenson has been. Both men studied music theory intensely. Jorgen- son received his doctorate and Haupt- man was a master of the art. As lead can- tor of the Leipzig Conservatory, Haupt- man devoted much of his time to di- recting music students, as Jorgenson does today. In addition, Hauptman was deeply religious. Jorgenson said he ad- mired that, himself being a Disciples of Christ minister. Jorgenson did some of his research on Hauptman at the library at Indiana University and at Pickier Memorial Li- brary. However, he spent two months in Leipzig, East Germany to get the infor- mation that would be the heart of Moritz Hauptman of Leipzig.” His leave during the summer of 1984 came after almost two years of thinking about writ- ing the book. I have the University to thank for let- ting me take the time off to go to Leipzig. Darrell Krueger was especially support- ive,” Jorgenson said. 1 don't think that he needed to thank me. It's what I would do for any faculty member who would want to do what Jor- genson did ... I would support any member of the faculty who would want to write a book like this,” Dean of In- struction Darrell Krueger said. --------------- Peggy Smith ------------- People 287 Faculty McWhorter UiDcllc McWhorter.

Assistant to President Cleor brush with greotness hos these transla- tions going from backyard to the publisher and R€AD AT ALL COST A small prefab office in Bald- win Hall is the new home of of Paintbrush: A Journal of Poetry, Translations and Letters. Into this office walks the found- er and editor, Ben Bennani, associate professor of language and literature. Bennani has been at NMSU since August. Me has also taught at the Univer- sity of Wyoming (Laramie), northeast- ern University and Tufts University (Boston). Arabian Gulf in Bahrain, the State University of new York and Georgia Southwestern College. He grew up in Lebanon and came to the United States as a student on a Ful- bright-Hayes Grant to Dartmouth. He is proud of his U.S. citizenship and feels America has been good to him. Paintbrush publishes the work of poets unafraid to take risks. It does not follow any one literary movement. It of- fers novelty, but nothing cute. It gives mavericks a chance to be read. Paintbrush offers translations from major languages as well as neglected ones, on top of local authors. I like clear, vivid imagistic poetry ' Bennani said. And I like things that are local, indigenous. Too many people look far away for deep meaning and overlook the beauty in their own back- yard. Indeed, Paintbrush began in Ben- nani's own backyard. Thejoumal started while I was teach- ing at the University of Wyoming in Lar- amie. It's name comes from the Indian Paintbrush plant which is common near Laramie and of course, the artist's uten- sil, Bennani said. I saw a need for a legitimate literary magazine worthy of fresh, living, breath- ing artwork. Too many magazines are too eclectic, accepting only one kind of poetry with no chance for change or new ideas. Paintbrush has done translations from languages all over the world. The list includes oral alphabetless lan- guages, native American tongues, all ro- mance languages, Greek, Latin, Scandi- navian, Sanskrit and Hindi. Well known contributors from around the world also live in the pages of Paint- brush. G. Wilson Knight, the Shakes- pearian from England; Carlos Fuentes of Mexico; Scandinavian Rolf Jacobson; and Kawabata Bosha of Japan area few.

Science Melinda Wood, financial Aids and Denise Levertou also have their place. My reasons for creating Paintbrush’ are selfish,” Bennani said, It's fun; I en- joy it! Working with print, editing and bookmaking are things I always wanted to do. I grew up with Eastern tradition where word eals with God. It still holds that fascination for me. I do it for the love of it and never pub- lish my own work in it. I am happy to say some of my own work has been printed elsewhere, however. One time 1 had to sell my car to pay for the printing,” laughed Bennani. I was between jobs and needed to get the issue out. I could never pay the contributors what they are worth,” Bennani said. When it is financially possible he tries to pay them, he always pays them with cop- ies. ”1 have had many contributors tell me they would rather appear in ‘Paintbrush’ for free than be paid to ap- pear in other journals. They like the treatment they receive and the company they appear with; serious original wri- ters.” Although he said he felt the quality of the magazine is superior, Bennani may change Paintbrush” from a semian- nual to an annual publication due to costs. Printing costs run between two and three thousand dollars per issue and there are other costs such as mail- ing. When I started Paintbrush,' the idea had been in my mind for quite some time,” he said. Only when I was sure of myself did 1 go ahead with it.” Deans and provosts from institutions where Bennani has taught have offered kind support for Paintbrush.” Both Darrell Krueger, dean of instruction and Ed Carpenter, head of the division of lan- guage and literature, said they would like to see Paintbrush continued in Kirks ville. “They understand the quality and the needs it serves,” Bennani explained. It is good exposure for their institution.” ------------Courtney Stewart----------- PASSIONATE PROrESSOR Ben Bennani dis- cusses the theme of' Animal Farm'' with students in his English composition class.

Were you ever just too physically exhausted to climb those two flights of stairs to get to your room, or were you just too lazy? The residence halls solved your problems, or so they thought, by having elevators installed when the buildings were first built. And there was the problem. The elevators were not only very slow, but half of the time, they did not even work. And just when you thought you could get the most use out of them, moving your stuff in and out at the end of the school year, you found yourself jam packed in the creaky old elevator with six other students and their stuff, praying it would just make it to the first floor.

'228 Historical Society 209 Index 293 Touching Tomorrow Today ug H Defined as: an affectionate embrace was essen- tial on those days when nothing went right. Hugs were appropriate for many reasons: after bombing a big test, not getting any mail for a week, calling a suicide pre- vention hot line and getting put on hold, putting your bra on backwards and having it fit better, having your identical twin forget your birthday, having your roommate give you all her clothes that are too big, waking up after throwing a big party the night before and finding your apartment is in no better condition than the local garbage dump ... or just to say I love you! Our staff conducted a poll to find out how often a person wants to be hugged in a day. We got a variety of answers ranging from 0 to 100. The most popular response was between three and five hugs a day. Ibviglin, Karen 2 VJ llo-iglin. Maty 2%9 Hob!� . Jamie l.� a . '.’.V� Hodge . Klivalielli 21.'� Ilmlgkin .

Working with an almost entirely brand new staff and different work- ing conditions since the move from I aughlin Hall to Ophelia Parrish, the Index provided a source of local, na- tional and international jews.

After many attempts, the women sponsored the equivalent to the male panty raid a jock raid. Running from the male residence halls shouting, whistling and chanting semi ohscene songs, the women demanded the men throw their jocks out their windows and into the hands of the lucky (or not so lucky, depending on the condition of the jock) recipient.

No, not there, must be the other Kirk. There is a group of students with a common bond. These were the lucky students who had a class in Kirk Memorial. The only classroom used in the building is located next to the foreign student office. And for the brave, there is the museum in the basement. Although very few students have ventured there, student ambassadors inform prospective students of its existence. Oh, it’s the building with the eternal flame in front of it.

Most students put off washing their clothes for as long as they can. The fortunate can take theirs home to Mom. another fate awaits the others. When they're down to their last pair of underwear, they lug the basket down to the laundry room, hopefully there is a working washer. Students try to save money by stuffing as much as they possibly can into one machine. Then, after everything turns gray, students save time by sorting it lat- er. ud I W I Mud puddles as well as mud-slinging left a trail of destruction across the campus. Rain pounded the pavement throughout the year. Even during the winter months, the Quadrangle created an obstacle course for students as they dodged the mud pits on their way to class.

L.A., or New York. No. What city is it that never sleeps? Kirksville. of course, known to many as simply Party Town. University stu- dents lived fora break from classes and looked forward to Kirksville nightlife. By the way, thanks Hardee's for staying open after midnight on the weekends. Pundit Defined as: Kick ass, free voice ■ Clark Win- slow, fr. The Pundit was an alternative paper started by junior Kevin Fitzpatrick in the fall. His paper offered lots of controversy, as his opinion pages were filled with such headlines as Instructor Deserves Brick to the Head and his photographers captured President McClain posing by the $750 trash can behind the Student Union. Observatory The observatory is another hot spot to be at night. Students, faculty and staff members got up at J a.m. with the hope of seeing Halley's Comet. Unfor- tunately, night after night viewing was cancelled because of cloudy skies. Finally, the weather cleared and atopic were admitted onto the roof and into the silver dome. Pa- tient starwatchers were able to gel a quick look through a powerful telescope at the comet. Quik Trip It's midnight and guess what, you've got the munchies. For many students a late night walk a couple of blocks to the university Quick Trip helped cure this late night problem. Those living Uptown would often stop on their way to and from class for a coke, or maybe a lottery ticket Quik Trip is the place to go for the 3 a.m. munchies. - Jennifer Schulz, fr. Room mutes Wanted: Someone to share a room. Low rent and utilities. Please call. This might have been the way several students ended up as roommates, either in off- campus apartments or in the residence halls. Roommates could be one of the closest friends a fterson could have, or they could be somewhat like a brother or sister (that you left home to get away from in the first place). Hacker� .

However, no NMSU race ever had as much controversy as the U.S. Senate Race between Kit Bond and Harriet H'oorfs. Walking .4 vital mode of transportation forstudentsal• tending NMSU. There were many types of walkers. There were those who walked side-by-side and were so engrossed in their conversation that the only wav to pass them was to walk in the grass, mud or snow. Then there were those who walked with their heads down and always managed to run into you. There were those who would play chicken and move the same way you intend- ed to move. Getting away from the hassles of walking was just about impossible. Maybe we should just follow the ad- vice of Hun DMC and walk this way. Waddell. land 192. ISM. 195 Wade. Tamara 179. 280 Wadle.

The tropic zone. The love zone. The twilight zone. What about the people zone? For instance, you ask your roommate to pass the salt, and he she tells you that it’s supposed to snow tomorrow. Or how about when you re daydreaming in class about a big thick pizza you want to order for dinner. The instructor calls on you in class, and you tell him to hold the anchovies. Or you listen forever to your friend, who’s telling you a story and she ends by saying OK lady, sol left, and that has no bearing at all on her story. If you've ever encoun- tered any of these examples, or done some of them yourself, then you have zoned out and officially entered into... The People Zone. Zahner.

Behind us we leave the visions of a marshland called the Quad and a mountain of rubble, which we knew as Laughlin Hall; its destruction paving the way for a new library wing. Hopefully, stronger and clearer insights to who we were and how we grew, will shine through the fog of CAPPING IT OFF reelings con- cerning the value-added program invade even graduation ceremo- nies.

We thank you for laying the groundwork that brought the Echo out of mediocrity and up to the level of an award-winning book that we can be proud of. We thank you for all you taught us about ourselves and our abilities, and for the support system you provided that kept the '86 staff and many other staffs together. With your guidance, hundreds of deadlines were met through the years, and out of chaos, a yearbook was bom. We dedicate the 67 book to you.

Editor in Chief Tracy Showalter 1987 Echo Staff Assistant Editor Susie Sinclair These were the times that tried men's (and women's) souls... Actual- ly: we tried a lot of things, and. Thank God, they were successful. Copy Editor Andrea Stamey Before, after and in between so much in my life this year, there was the Echo. Computers Jammed with words to change and rearrange ... read this book... find the words — I'm there. Sports Editor Greg Swanson It's an experience all right; if you like people bitching at you every five sec- onds. On the other hand, its those four seconds in between that will make you laugh your ass off. Organization Editor Dylan Stolz 7 would like to give my gratitude to the Jolt Cola Co. of Rochester, n. Y. All the energy and twice the work. Kirks- ville received it Just in time for my worst deadline. Photo Editor Val Hoeppner In bed by 1 a.m., that's a Joke. A true Echo photo editor is always in the dark, it takes all kinds, whatever dicks your shutter. Darkroom Tech Janet Moore ' For the last couple of months I've hi- bernated in my darkroom in total dark- ness. Expose me to light and I go blind. So don't try to brighten my life or I'll pop you in the chop! Index Editor Terri Vlahovich During my short time on the staff, I have found it is possible to function without sleep. Seriously, what other organizations let you walk around the roof of Ophelia?'' This year's staff has given me so much — a clean, organized desk and the chance to improve my skills at drawing folios. Layout Editor Margaret Blouin If laying out your life, you find your- self trapped between elements, be thankful you're not in padded white space. If that fails, head for the gutter with the rest of the staff. Adviser Kathy Armentrout The hours may be as long for the adviser, but at least most of them are in the daylight, and these editors sure made my day brighter. Index Editor Rae Robertson Index Editor Lori Gettemeyer (fall) People Editor Karen Klingemann 'I've never experienced so much, with so many people, in so short a time, in so small an office, as I did with my staff. They call me Brubaker, but I know they love me. Copy Editor Kathy Betcher Half the time I don't know whether to laugh, cry or scream. You can 't expect a lot of sleep or free time, but you can expect some good memories, friends and experience. Feature Editor Joann Heitman I'm bald now from pulling my hair out over writers that don't know what deadline means and avoiding staff members that do. But, I'd like to thank the Pope for guidance.
