At halftime, the crowd anxiously awaits the announcement of the new homecoming royalty. Michele Beller of Phi Mu and Dave Good of Phi Kappa Tau reign as the 1986 fall homecoming queen and king. This year’s fall homecoming took on a whole new look in University of Evansville’s Arad McCutchan football stadium. Impressed alumni returned to their alma mater to find the stadium completed after slow progress in construction. The Aces got their stadium, but pe could not pull of a win. There were plenty of activities throughout homecoming week for UE students. Comedian Yakov Smirnoff brought his standup routine and movie “Moscow on the Hudson” to a packed house in Great Hall and was a huge success. Lawn displays on the front circle were set up by various organizations and dorms on the Friday before homecoming. Their many hours of hard work were judged by faculty and administration members in both mechanical and non- mechanical categories. First place in t he mechanical division went to Alpha Omicron Pi and Tau Kappa Epsilon, and the non-mechanical trophy was won by Chi Omega and Sigma Alpha Epsilon. These awards were announced at the pep rally that night, at which Alpha Omicron Pi won the spirit award. Although UE was defeated by Valparaiso, halftime festivi- ties provided some winners. Phi Mu’s Michele Beller and Dave Good of Phi Kappa Tau were crowned homecoming king and queen. Fall homecoming 1986 was brought to a close with a well- attended dance at the Sheraton Inn, sponsored by the University of Evansville Alumni Association. The women of Alpha Omicron Pi took the spirit award at the pep rally on the eve of homecoming. Chi Omega and Sigma Alpha Epsilon teamed up to win the non-mechanical lawn display competition. An old green friend showed up to give Alpha Omicron Pi and Tau Kappa Epsilon a first place trophy in the mechanical lawn display 4 competition.

What involves girls runnning relays with watermelons between their legs, a gong show and more than $10,000? Lambda Chi Alpha’s annual Watermelon Bust, of course! As in the past, the men of Lambda Chi participated in car washes and bucket brigades to raise money for their philanthropy, Evansville Association for Retarded Citizens. The four sororities and Brentano Hall also raised money in support of their Watermelon Bust queen candi- dates. The Lambda Chis added a new money-raising event with their first annual gong show. Organizations entered all types of acts, which were judged (and often gonged) by the queen candidates. The dance team from Chi Omega took the first place trophy in this event. The day of the Watermelon Bust began with the games. Greek organizations from the University of Evansville and the University of Southern Indiana as well as dormitories competed in games of tossing watermelons, eating pizza, chugging beverages and carrying watermelons between their legs. Sigma Phi Epsilon won the men’s competition with Sigma Alpha Epsilon second. The women’s competi- tion was taken by the Alpha Gamma Delta sorority of USI, and Phi Mu placed second. From the games at the Lambda Chi house, the party moved to Lot H of the UE parking lot. There the men of Lambda Chi Alpha had constructed a 36-by-40-foot backdrop for the Bust. The bands “Autumn” and “The Pits” entertained the crowd, and Christine Olsen of Phi Mu sorority was crowned the 1985 Watermelon Bust queen. Neil Tucker, Watermelon Bust chairman, presented Thomas Jones of Evansville Association for Retarded Citizens with a check for $10,172. Does the Bust stop here? No way! The Lambda Chi’s are already planning for a bigger and better Bust for next year. CHANGES ..with a touch of madness Musical Madness brought its blend of entertainment and competition to the Shanklin Theater stage in early February. Seven groups competed in shows following the theme of “Changes” with Sigma Phi Epsilon and Chi Omega winning top honors with their entry of “The Best Things In Life Are Free”. Zeta Tau Alpha and Phi Kappa Tau placed second with “Music, Music, Music” and also captured the Spirit Award. Third place went to Phi Mu and Sigma Alpha Epsilon, followed by Alpha Omicron Pi and Hale Hall in fourth place. Brad Allen of Hughes Hall was awarded overall best directer. True to its theme, Musical Mad- ness experienced a couple of changes this year. For the first time, Greek organizations and campus dormitories teamed to compete in Musical Madness. Also, the 1986 Madness featured a show presented by a group other than a dormitory or Greek organization. This show was put together by the Kappa Chi Chris- tian Fellowship and titled “The Difference.” Most importantly, two thousand dollars was raised through this project and donated to the Evansville Rescue Mission, this year’s chosen recipient. The mission was pre- sented with a huge donation, winners went away with trophies, but everyone went home with some very special memories.

The University of Evansville Theatre marked their 20th season in Shanklin Theatre with Shaw’s “Arms and the Man”, directed by John David Lutz. The production was enhanced with a visit from Sam Smiley who directed the same farce in 1969 as UE’s first entry in the American College Theatre Festival. The department continued its successful year with productions of “Loot” and William Shakespeare’s “The Comedy of Errors”, which was guest directed by Cynthia White of Southern Methodist University. The year’s studio productions were a combination of “Chamber Music”, “Action” and “Shivaree”, directed by student director John Creech. The highlight of the 1985-86 year for UET was the berth to the American College Theatre Festival Regional Competition at Ohio State University in Columbus. This invita- - tion marked UET’s fifteenth trip to the regional conference. “Strider”, directed by John David Lutz, was a musical featuring Jay Albright and Lisa Dove. Both of these students were chosen to represent the university as the Irene Ryan Founda- tion Award acting contestants at the conference. Jay Albright made it to the finals of the competition. Although the production did not move on to national competition, students were recognized for their achievements throughout the year. Lisa Dove received a set design award, and David McClaine and Pat Tapp both received design honors in the regional festival’s Design Exposi- tion.

BIG MAN ON CAMPUS What do the women of Zeta Tau Alpha at the University of Evansville do to give men a taste of their own medicine and at the same time provide a night of entertainment? They sponsor their annual Big Man On Campus contest. Twenty-two male students, sponsored by campus organiza- tions, promenaded across the stage at the National Guard Armory wearing Western, Summer and Evening attire. Five participants were selected as finalists and took part in a question-and-answer session. Gary Luker of Sigma Pi was selected by the judges and was crowned the 1986 Big Man On Campus. Greg Pence, representing Chi Omega, was voted Mr. Congeniality. Zeta Tau Alpha raised more than $900 in its third annual BMOC contest for its phil- athropy, Evansville Association for Retarded Citizens. 23 Winter Homecomi The 1986 Winter Homecoming king and queen, Greg Anita Steinhagen prepares to Pence of Lambda Chi Alpha and Lisa Culiver of Phi Mu. — crown the 1986 queen.

Five groups created their own themes and presented 12- minute shows that ranged from well- known songs of Broadway to songs about a variety of foods. Shows by Phi Mu Lambda Chi Alpha, Chi Omega Phi Kappa Tau, Hughes Hall, Hale Hall, and Brentano Hall Moore Hall enter- tained the audiences for two nights with the proceeds going towards SAI’s annual scholarship fund. The talented women of Sigma Alpha lota also presented an exciting non- competition show of their own. Chi Omega Phi Kappa Tau took home the first-place honors with Moore Brentano receiving second place and the spirit award. Phi Mu Lambda Chi placed third, and Hughes Hall’s Keith Gambill was awarded the Best Director award. Louisa Kaiser and Brett Morrow teamed to be part of Chi Omega and Phi Kappa Tau show. {RENNES ee Lynnea Brumbaugh, Brad Reysz, Mary Habiby and Ron Freson wear their formal attire for the Phi Mu Lambda Chi Alpha show.

Money was raised through organized roadblocks by sororities and women’s dorms, in addition to a very successful Jail-a- thon at Eastland Mall. The fraternity collected over $25,000 for their local philathropy, the American Cancer Society. This amount set a new record for the largest amount raised in a philanthropic project at UE. Derby Day started early on the front circle with Derby games, in which sororities and women’s dorms participated in pyramid building, tug of war, egg toss and other competi- tions. Later that evening, Phi Kappa Tau hosted an all-campus party on Parking Lot H. During the party, trophies were presented to Phi Mu for first place in the games competition and to Chi Omega for first place in fund-raising.

The squad was young, with only 12 seniors on the roster. Seniors on offense were Karl Brown, Mike Post, Corey Greening, Scott Schuler, Kelly Malone, Craig Helfer, lain Forrest and Bubby Lewis. The defensive seniors were Phil Miller, Eric Green, Chris Dykal and June Handy. “The young men worked hard and had a never-say-die attitude,” Coach Moore said. “These young men are the ones that have started and helped lay the foundation for a win- ning football program.” The season got off to a start with a disappointing loss in Jefferson City, Mo., to Lincoln University, which used a 42-yard field goal during the last minute of play to win by one, 24- 23. The Grand Valley game was close for three quarters. Then UE failed to field a punt starting the fourth quarter, and Grand Valley went on to beat the Aces by 714 points, 28-14. A windy day in Rensselaer ended on abad note. The Aces had the win- hing touchdown called back with only 38 seconds to go in the game and fell to St. Joseph’s, 10-7. Valparaiso came to Evansville for homecoming, but UE did not show up to play in the first half. The Aces came fighting back in the second half to score 28 points only to lose by six, 41-35, be- cause time ran out. The Aces next traveled to Butler to play UE’s big rival. UE played its best game of the year, fighting back to tie the game with omly 28 seconds to go. UE made the decision before the game started to go for the win and not the tie. The two-point effort failed, and the Aces fell 21-20. The team took it hard, but they were beginning to believe in themselves. 90 Football The next week UE took on another top-20 team in Indiana Central. The Aces jumped out to a quick lead, but Central came rushing back and returned a punt for a score with seconds to go in the first half to go ahead. UE could never catch up, los- ing to the Greyhounds 38-17. The following week UE took on a tough, physical Ashland College in Ashland, Ohio, and lost 36-24. “They were the best team we played all year, and we scored some points in the fourth quarter'to make it look respectable,” Coach Moore said. “We will need to live in the weight room for two years to catch up with the physical football players at Ashland College.” UE came back at home against Georgetown College and jumped out to a 21-point lead only to go behind in the fourth quarter after Hobson threw his third interception of the day. The Aces were down by 2 with 3 minutes to go and came storming down the field in front of the home crowd. With 38 seconds to go, the Aces lined up for Craig Helfert to kick what would have been the winning field goal only to have it blocked, and UE looked at defeat for the eighth straight time — this time 23-21. “This team always tried hard each week and maybe would not always put it together for four quarters,” Coach Moore commented, “but they were always giving great effort.” The Aces closed on a strong note, with two victories — 35-34 over Franklin and 34-7 over Kentucky Wesleyan. “The Franklin College game was one that the defense played hard and the offense did not show up in the first half, and we ourselves down by 28 points — four touchdowns down — at the half,” Moore said. “We were all positive at the half and made the adjustments.” The Aces raced to their second win in a row behind the strong arm of Randy Hobson, the tough running of Billy Joe Masters and the speed of Jerry Johnson. The defense played the best that it could and only gave up seven points as the Aces won by 27 points. “The season went fast, and the young men tried each week,” Moore said. “They are all fine young men with good heads on their shoulders. We are looking forward to recuiting and getting some bigger and stronger men on the defensive line and some faster players in the defen- sive secondary. It was a learning ex- perience for us all, and the Heartland Conference is a fine league.” After the season it was announced that the Aces would drop to Division Ill as soon as scheduling would allow. aes Re re Dine) ane ae tees Sener ee omer CON, % Head coach Dave Moore is perhaps the most optimistic coach around.

Quarterback Randy Hobson found himself in trouble a lot this season. The soccer Aces achieved two firsts for University of Evansville sports teams competing in Division | by being named No. 1 in the country and reaching the semifinals of the na- tional tournament. On Nov. 5, 1985, the soccer Aces reached their first milestone, the No. 1 spot in the Intercollegiate Soccer Association of America natonal rank- ing. The honor came after a victory over the University of Wisconson- Madison to give the Aces an 18-0-1 record. With the No.1 ranking, the Aces faced a tough St. Louis University team. Within the first 15 minutes, it looked as if it would be a high-scoring game. St. Louis earned an un- assisted goal at 13:03, and Rob Schoenstein countered for the Aces at 15:17 to tie the score. UE outshot the Billikens 13-7, but the score remained tied 1-1 through two overtime periods. The final regular-season game matched UE against the University of Louisville. The Aces broke a school record when they scored 15 goals in a shutout against the Cardinals. At the end of the season, the Aces took their No. 1 national ranking and a 19-0-2 record into the NCAA na- tional tournament. Evansville received a first-round bye. Indiana University defeated Akron 2-0 to advance to the second round for a rematch between the 12- 8-1 Hoosiers and the unbeaten Aces. Junior Dan McHugh scored twice, and Senior Bowl-bound Rob Schoenstein added the clinching goal as the Aces won the Great Lakes Regional Championship over |.U. 3-0 in front of a standing-room- only crowd of 3,018. It was the first time Evansville had ever advanced past the second round of the NCAA 96 Soccer Tournament. The Aces outshot Indiana 17-11 in beating the Hoosiers for the second time during the season by the same score. Prior to 1985, I.U. held a 9-0-1 advantage in the series against Evansville. The following week, the Aces were matched against the Nittany Lions of Penn State. Senior forward Rob Schoenstein scored on a header that proved to be the winning goal just 74 seconds into the match. Junior forward Dan McHugh booted a corner kick that was picked up in the crowd of players by Andrew Norton. Norton kicked the ball over the crowd for the header by Schoenstein. The 18th-ranked Nittany Lions, 15- 5-1, took only one shot on goal in the first half. They had several opportuni- ties in the waning minutes of the match, but once again the Aces’ defense proved to be the difference. Freshman goalkeeper Jon Halliwill recorded his only save late in the game. A home crowd of more than 1,600 shivering fans saw UE improve its record to 21-0-2 and remain the only undefeated Division | team in the na- tion. The soccer Aces’ season came to an end when they were defeated in the semifinals by UCLA, 3-1. The Aces outshot UCLA 11-9 for the game but were unable to score in the first half. Twenty-six minutes into the first half, David Ervine scored for UCLA. The Bruins increased their lead three minutes into the second half when UE’s Chris Machold tried to clear a shot off the goal line and instead helped the ball into the net. UCLA goalkeeper David Vande shoved the Aces’ Dan Balassi in a scramble. Balassi was awarded a penalty kick and converted it for a goal. UCLA’s Mike Gretchel got the team’s final goal with 55 seconds left in the game. Coach Fred Schmalz said of the team, “I’ve never had a group come closer to realizing their potential than this one. We're disappointed for the moment, but only for the moment.” Six UE players were chosen for the 11-man NCAA Division | All-Mideast soccer team: forwards Rob Schoen- stein, Dan McHugh and Dan Balassi; midfielders Mike Lyon and Andrew Norton; and back Mike Mikes. New team records included most wins in aseason, 21; longest winning streak, 12; longest unbeaten streak, 23; most goals for a season, 93; most goals in a game, 15; most shutouts for a season, 13; lowest goals- against average, 0.625; best won- lost percentage, 0.917; and fewest losses for a season, 1. Individual records included most points for a season, 54, by Dan McHugh; most points in a game, by Rob Schoenstein vs. Kentucky Wesleyan (4 goals); Dan McHugh vs. Loyola (3 goals, 2 assists); and Andrew Norton vs. Jacksonville (4 goals); most assists in a career, 31, Dan McHugh; most game-winning goals ina season, 7, by Rob Schoen- stein; and lowest goals-against average in a season, 0.57, by Jon Halliwill. Head Coach Schmalz, who has had a winning season each season since he began coaching the Aces in 1979, said the No. 1 ranking would help nationwide recognition of the UE soccer program. | He attributed his success at UE to “knowing a lot about the players.” He added, “This team fit together well.” Front row: Tim Lane, Andrew Norton, Mike Mikes, Jim Short, Jeff Boes, Jon Halliwill, Mark Smith, Rob Wilhelm, Rob Schoenstein, Brian Wannemuehler, Dan Balassi, Dan McHugh, Steve Koressel, Trainer Lester Hagan.

The Aces had a slow start, losing 12 of their first 17 games, but rallied in the end, winning six of their last 10 games. Despite an optimistic outlook, the Lady Aces volleyball team was eliminated in its second match of the single-elimination North Star Con- ference Tournament to finish in a tie for fifth place for the second year in a row. The tournament saw no major upsets and went according to Coach Linda Wambach’s predic- tions. DePaul claimed the champi- onship, followed by Butler, Notre Dame and the Aces’ eliminator, Loyola. Using all their energy in the first match against Valparaiso, the UE netters were unable to play to the level Wambach determined neces- sary to upset Loyola in the second match. Junior Lori Wagner's nine spiking kills and three service aces were not enough to get the Lady Aces over the hump, and they fell to Loyola, 15-8, 15-7, 15-10. The Valparaiso contest didn’t go to a decisive fifth game, yet the two squads battled through several long rallies before the Lady Aces came out on top, 16-14, 14-16, 15-12 and 15-12. Senior Laura Seib dominated the floor with 27 spiking kills, and senior setter hitter Mary Jones served four aces. Laura Seib was chosen to the second Volleyball Academic All- America squad. Seib also holds six school records in volleyball at UE, including the record for kills (432). Front row: Mary Beth Acra, Ladislava Hasek, Laura Carpenter, Lori Wagner, Gail Groeninger, Laura Seib.

X-Country The women’s and men’s cross country teams, coached by Kevin Otte, finished their season with records of 23-27 and 36-48, respec- tively. In conference meets the women finished fifth of eight teams in the North Star Conference, while the men ended sixth of eight in the Widwestern Collegiate Conference. The teams highlighted their season at Washington University in St. Louis with the women coming in fifth of seventeen teams and the men finish- ing seventh of twenty teams. Individual achievements included freshman Kim Horvath, who set a new school record and was named MVP of the women’s team. Kim was also the first woman runner from UE to run in the NCAA District IV cross country meet. Alan Mather was the men’s MVP, and leadership awards were given to freshmen Kris Doba and Charles Whelan. The most im- proved runners were Carol Renner and Scott Mingle. Coach Otte commented that the season was “a very enjoyable year. This team was fun to work with. They had a lot of fun together. We did not reach all of the goals we had set for ourselves, but we came closer than we ever have in reaching our poten- tial. With virtually our entire squad coming back, we hope to improve on what we have done in the past.” X-Country Fw Full speed ahead! Ks “i 4 Alan Mather grabs some water and keeps running.

The basketball Aces ended an 18- game losing streak on the road with their victory over the Butler Bulldogs, 75-71. It was the only victory for the Aces on the road during the season. The Aces began and finished their season impressively. The final home game of the season saw UE defeat the Detroit Titans 80-74. UE was led in the victory over Detroit by the 37-point, 12-rebound performance of senior forward Bubby Mukes. He and fellow seniors Paul Schaefer and Mike Massing were playing in the last home game. Mukes set two personal records and took over the 10th spot on the Aces’ all-time scoring list. Freshman standout Troy Jones contributed a career-high 20 points. The Aces were seeded sixth of seven teams in the Midwestern Collegiate Conference Basketball Tournament in Indianapolis. UE was matched against Detroit, wnom they had defeated previously. The outcome was different this time, however, and the loss ended UE’s season. Troy Jones was placed on the MCC all-freshman squad. Jones played in every game proved to doubters that he is a Division | player. During the spring, Coach Jim Crews recruited Brian Haddock of Columbus, Ohio, and Milt Donald of Cincinnati. Haddock is a 6-5 forward and Donald is a6-3 guard. Crews has high hopes for a good season next year with the several good returning players as well as the new recruits.

Even though it lost their final game to Loyola, Coach Bill Barnett’s team went out with style, whittling a 20- point deficit to just 4 before falling 84- 73. Senior Barb Dykstra ended her career impressively against the Lady Ramblers. Her clutch free-throw shooting was a major factor in the comeback. She sank 11 of 13 charity shots, tying her school record for the most made in a game. She is second behind Shelly Brand-Adlard on the career scoring list at UE. Eisenhauer finished as the team’s leading scorer (13.5 overall and 13.3 in conference). She was followed by Kathy Sloan (10,12.3) and Barb Dykstra (9.8,10). Eisenhauer was among the conference scoring leaders all season. The Lady Aces will graduate only Barb Dykstra, a major contributor in all aspects of the game. She was second in team-rebounding (5.2,5.3) and assists (3.1) while being third in scoring. She and front-court partner Angie McGrew were among the con- ference assist leaders most of the season. Despite an identical record to a year ago, the team made several im- provements, including a 4 percent points improvement in field goal accuracy to 41.9 percent from 38 percent. Also improved over the 1984-85 season were free-throw percentage and scoring margin.” Head Coach Bill Barnett gives directions to his team.

The Aqua Aces put their best face forward in the championships for the Midwestern Collegiate Conference (for men) and the North Star Con- ference (for women) at the Carson Center pool. Their effort, according to their coach, Dave Enzler, showed that the best team doesn’t always win. The men swimmers set seven school records and won eight events, while the women set 10 school records and had four victories. The teams’ performances took them to dual second-place finishes. The swimmers were not the only ones piling up the honors. Coach Dave Enzler, who coaches both UE’s men and women, was named Coach Head Coach Dave Enzler discusses strategy with swimmer Steve Nemish. 136 Swimming of the Year in both the MCC and the NSC. Though Notre Dame captured first in the MCC, it was only 52 points ahead of UE, while the Aces were 268 points ahead of third-place Oral Roberts. Coach Enzler attributed Notre Dame's win to its depth. However, he felt UE was the stronger team. The NSC race was similar. Notre Dame claimed the championship and UE’s women finished a close second, while Butler’s third-place total was 77 points below UE’s total. Enzler said the women’s strength lay in their depth. Standouts from the year’s squad were Jennifer Darr and Andy Hass. In her specialty, the backstroke, Darr was virtually unstoppable. She set new marks in the 100 (1:04.28) and the 200 (2:17.73) yard backstroke. She was also part of the 400 medley relay team that set a school record of 4:09.96 and was part of the 400 freestyle team that swam to a record 3:43.69. Hass claimed three first- place victories in the championships. He also set five UE records. In- dividual records were the 100 breas- tstroke (57.96) and 200 breaststroke (2:10.97), and he was part of the 400 medley relay (3:34.84) and 400 free relay (3:12.12).

After two victories over Detroit during the season, the Aces were upset in the NSC title game. “| think we’ve had a pretty good season,” Coach Rita Schultz said. “Beating teams like (SIU) Carbon- dale and losing to (14th-ranked) South Carolina like we did (2-1 in 11 innings) made us realize the level we could play to when we had to.” In the tournament, the Lady Aces soundly defeated Valparaiso, 6-2, in their opening-round contest only to be beaten by rival DePaul 1-0 in the bottom of the eighth inning of the second game. That loss would make the road to the title game more diffi- Cult. Despite an erratic offensive attack, The Aces huddle up before taking their turn at bat. 158 Softball the Aces gained a one-run victory over St. Louis from the tourney. In their second game of the day, the Lady Aces managed a 2-0 win over stubborn Butler University. That win set up a rematch against DePaul. With a full count and no outs in the bottom of the seventh inning, Denise Koscielniak drew. a controversial walk, sending Sharon Neufelder home with the game-winner. Against Detroit in the title game, the UE bats went cold. While the Lady Titans pounded out eight hits, three for extra bases, the Lady Aces could manage only one hit off freshman hurler Chris Choma and lost 2-0 in the title game. The Lady Aces placed three players on the all-conference team: Sharon Neufelder, Kerri Blalock and Brenda Maller. Neufelder, the lone senior on the team, came to life at the plate. The Lady Aces’ shortstop hit .281 in her six tourney games. In a fine all- around performance, she also helped shut down the left side of the infield with impressive defensive plays, making only one error. Blalock and Maller were high school teammates. Blalock, a sopho- | more from Herrin, Ill., was 3-0, in- cluding a five-strike-out, six-hit performance against Valparaiso. Blalock’s record was 17-6 with a 4.23 ERA.

Phi Jennifer Sharp pulls ahead in the watermelon relay race. 239 If one word could fully describe the 1985-86 year for the men of Sigma Alpha Epsilon, it would be “tradition.” A tradition started by setting goals and purposes, then following through with them. At the beginning of the year, the fraternity set high personal goals as well as group goals. Ideally, members strived for excellence in all areas of campus life. Realistically, they strived to do their best at any activity they chose to undertake. Accomplishments for the 1985-86 school year included a second-place trophy for the intramural all-sports award, first in homecoming float competition and spirit competition, third in Musical Madness with Phi Mu, and fifth place in the Big 39 bike race. More importantly, the men of Sigma Alpha Epsilon compiled one of the highest GPAs on campus with a John Rolfe and Lynnea Brumbaugh teamed up for their Musical Madness show.

In addition, brothers are active in all aspects of campus life at UE. Five brothers competed on intercollegiate teams. Others were members of Student Congress, Student Associa- tion and WUEV. SAE has brothers who hold positions as Student Orien- tation Leaders and Resident Assis- tants. The year brought many trials, but together the men of Sigma Alpha Epsilon stood and grew as a unit. Nineteen men were formally pledged to Sigma Alpha Epsilon in 1985-86. But the most important accomplish- ment for the fraternity members was the realization that a brother exists of whom you can be proud, as well as his being proud of you for what you are. . RRR NOt.

In other philan- thropic activities, the Sig Eps collected over $200 for UNICEF and participated in Phantom Theatre at the Evansville State Hospital. The men of Sigma Phi Epsilon Started off a very successful spring semester by winning the annual , je Musical Madness with the Chi Omega sorority. The fraternity then took five pledges in spring rush and initiated them in the spring, making Sig Ep the largest fraternity on campus. In the annual Big 39 bike race, the Sig Eps raced to a second- place finish, and for the second con- secutive year the Sig Eps won the all- sports trophy for overall first place in intramural competition.

As part of their philanthropic project, the pledges had a Gentlemen’s Day at a nearby nursing home. Male residents were adopted by sorority members and visited throughout the year.

In addition, Zeta participated in other sorority and fraternity philanthropic projects on campus throughout the year. Singing and dancing the winter blahs away, Zeta teamed with the men of Phi Kappa Tau to win second place and the spirit award with their show “Music, Music, Music” in Musi- cal Madness.
