Throughout life, someone has been there nourish- ing and caring for those needs. As a child, parents were the major source of that need fulfillment. They provided shelter, food and a loving home. As time passed and childhood evolved into youth, friends began to share your time, conversa- tions and energy. Passing notes in class, hiding each other’s books and trying to infuriate the teacher were everyday oc- curences through junior and even senior high school. And now, as an adult and col- lege student, much more than half of your time is spent with or talking to other people. It’s naturally normal to enjoy time alone, but how long can you remain in solitude without turning on the television or radio, calling a friend or visiting a neighbor? Chances are, not very long. For one of the most important areas of your life then and now is knowing there are people who will stand by your side and be your friend when- ever you need them. NLU students understand the impor- tance of enjoying themselves, whether it be paddling in a canoe on the bayou (Eileen Gauthier and Scarlett Yerger) or riding bikes through the campus grounds (Chad Daniels and Kay Dick). Opening 3 Side By Side Imagine where Northeast would be if our people did not support each other and give and take of themselves in that manner. Picture an athletic event where each play- er on the team fol- lowed his own rules. There would surely be chaos and most like- ly that team could crown their season a loss. What would happen to each organization on campus if no one joined or participated? In an or- ganization, so much emphasis is placed on work- ing side by side with other members. Without this cooperation in assigning and carrying out respon- sibilities and working together, most clubs would never benefit or survive. As groups at NLU work together, they strive to be the best. They work hard and the dedication pays off in the end when the final results hits the front page in the form of a winning season, a suc- cessful fund raiser or a crowning victory. The people at NLU are also special and unique in themselves. Living together in dorms, going to classes, studying, eating and partying together all contribute in bringing them closer together and to strengthening the bonds of friendship. ay tH S@eeen__ - : Richard Lupo ¥ , Like a rainbow of color on a cloudy is day, NLU students know how to spend their spare time in cheery ways, be it ee. looking for the cute linebacker in the football program, strolling along the beach during summer breaks or aiming at targets hoping to win the ladies’ heart. Billy Heckford Opening 5 John Jone Richard Lupo John Jones One step further are the fraternities and sororities whose foundations are on the princi- ples of love and brotherhood. The special = bonds of friend- ship become even more sacred for those students who enter the Greek system. Sharing good and bad experiences alike by each brother or sister’s side is a stronghold that binds the ties of friend- ships even stronger. One of, if not the, most impor- tant reason for attending NLU is to receive a qual- ity education. Here again is proof of the ability of students and faculty alike to work side by side, helping each other grow and learn. In each class- room there is a give and take situation. The teach- er shares his knowledge and will even spend time with the student outside of class. But, the pupil in turn does his part, for a professor is usually reluc- tant to lecture to a set of empty wooden desks. So working together, each student can learn from the teachers knowledge that can further their educa- tion to its maximum potential. This year was a memorable one, and one that you can treasure forever with the help of this book. Starting with Student Life and ending with Faces, you can read chapter by chapter the people, places and dates that were so important to you this year. It has always been said that two can do any- thing better than one. In most cases, as NLU, that is the only way. Working together, helping each other, sharing life’s experiences and growing as a unit, that is our style. Because no matter what the obstacle, we can conquer it... sidy by side. Involvement can be found in all facets of life at NLU; one area important for Laurie Young, track star, was carrying the Olympic torch through Monroe. Participation also occurs on the mighty Indian football team, on the shores of the bayou as Jennifer and daughter Lindsey Grimes feed the ducks, and also in the lab as Mike Pickett, Daphne Howard and Paulette McKeller conduct experiments.

Yet, most young and eager high school grads would fill in that blank with the same words: Livin’ it up! Realistically speaking, college is a place where a student retreats from the world for about four years. Independence becomes a household word (or in most cases, dormhold word?!?) for everyone that survives the dorm shuffle, the registration ugh’s and book- buying blah’s. Mom and Dad either ooze back into your hometown and become available only for ex- tra funds or (if you’re so lucky) pop up with the camera and date-nut bread at the most uncompromising times. Either way, in most cases your not actually living with them any- more! Yet, although you’ve escaped the teenage trials, the “real world” is still out there some- where in the college senioritis twilight zone. So in this “limbo” period that someone in history donned as “college” becomes simply a time to prepare for that journey towards the “real world.” And nowhere is it stated that you can’t have a darn good time on your trip! As we proceed into our chapters of memo- ries, let’s first look at the things that brought you to NLU besides the curriculum. See for yourself how Northeast can live it up, side by side. 10 Together As the temperature warms and the sun shines brighter, students like Noah Reeves and Napoleon Book jog to get into top shape for the summer.

That night you try to sleep, but your roommate decides to en- tertain himself by reading ‘‘Re- turn of the Jedi’ aloud with sound effects. Registration day at last! You decide to sleep late, because it is Tuesday and you don’t have to be there until 3:00 p.m. Nine- ty degree weather accompa- nies you and your sweat drenched clothes as you scram- ble across campus looking for Brown Gym, your adviser, and finally Ewing Coliseum. By the time you have drained your piggy bank that your mother gave you for your birthday, you hear the an- nouncement being made that registration will close in fifteen minutes. The classes you've picked have all been filled and you, the business major, are now agree- ing to major in Flight Attending Richard Lupo just to get to the next table. As you emerge from the doors of Ewing Coliseum into the dark, you look at your watch and pray that it doesn’t read 8:30?!? Well at least you have registered and are ready for class the next day. The rest should be smooth sailing. Wrong again! You have to buy your books. You decide you will be smart for a change and buy your books early. After you go through security clearance at the back entrance to the book store, you find out that every- one else decided to join you in the book buying process. You collect approximately three hundred pounds of text and then begin the time of your life. You never realized that standing in line could be so much fun. Three hours later you place the books on the counter and attempt to get your check book out of your back pocket with your arms and hands that are permanently bent into a cradle position.

Three weeks later, after suf- fering from total humiliation, nerve damage and physical ex- haustion, you realize that col- lege life might not kill you after all. You are so glad that you found out your suitemates were really going to a costume ball. And as for your roomie, well, you‘ think you might be able to hold out until the next semester.

For her talent presentation in the Miss NL pageant, Kelly performed a classical ballet to ‘‘Ro- jdeo.” Of course, dancing is something that comes natural to Kelly. She has been dancing since the age of three, but she did not begin concentrating on ballet until much later. Through her dancing, Kelly has won several = |awards and scholarships. She has won a Warner Communications Ballet Scholarship, attended the Craft of Choreography Conference in New York, and was awarded a scholarship through “Dance Maga- zine.” Kelly believes that one reason she chose to major in dietetics is her love of dance. “I was a nursing major at first, but then | realized when | entered clinical | would have to give up dancing because | wouldn't have time for it. | couldn’t do that, so | changed my major. | felt dietetics would help me know how to take care of my body.” she said.

Mike Meeks The Court In a repeat of history, the se- lection of the Homecoming Court turned out to be one of the most controversial issues facing NLU in 1985. When the final votes were counted in the free election vote, Ame Harveston, nominat- ed by Kappa Sigma was elect- ed queen with 665 votes. Kathy Thibodeaux, nominat- ed by Alpha Sigma Chi was elected Maid of Honor with 645 votes. Homecoming Other nominees elected to the court were Mary Sue Scott, nominated by Kappa Chi local sorority; Melanie Byrd, nomin- ated by the SGA; Karen Davis, nominated by Kappa Delta; and Veronica Karam, nominated by the Student Chapter of the As- sociated General Contrators. Even though these were the top vote-getters, the court was changed when the SGA added a seventh court position and placed Karen Canady, nominat- ed by Alpha Epsilon Delta, on the court. The move was made by the SGA following the elec- tion of the all white court in an effort to satisfy minority stu- dents. According to SGA President David Carter, Canady had re- ceived the next highest number of votes in the election. Even though six white girls were elected to the court, in a six white, six black run off elec- tion, the creation of the sev- Don Durr Billy Heckford HOMECOMING enth position brought cries of protest from the Black Caucus and some black students. Canady, a black who was ad- ded after an all white court was elected said, ‘‘I don’t feel it was fair to put me on the court when | didn’t make the court. If all whites made the court, then that’s the way it should be. They shouldn't just stick me on to satisfy the minorities.”’ After much debate and a threatened black boycott of Homecoming, Canady resigned from the court the day before Homecoming. The other six girls, however, did continue with the Home- coming festivities. On Satur- day, Nov. 2, they rode a float made for them by NLU 31 in the Homecoming parade. Karen Davis, who rode the float, said, “It was a lot of fun representing the school and rid- ing through campus, but | also enjoyed representing the stu- dents in the community since the parade went through the Gitvan At the game held in Malone stadium, they were all present- ed to the crowd while being es- corted by their fathers.

The first major social event was the Cocktail Buffet pro- vided for returning alumni on Friday. Ouachita Alumni Chap- ter and Budweiser sponsored this informal get together. “Since it is their first chance back on campus, the out-of- town people really enjoy the Cocktail Buffet,’ said Don Weems, alumni director. Awards were presented for the Homecoming Tennis Tour- nament. In the women’s dou- bles, Dottie Brooks and Lucy Shackelford won. Bob Tucker and Dicki Raymond were the winners in the men’s doubles.

The Alumni-Faculty Annual Awards Dinner was held that afternoon.

In the evening, the big mo- ment finally arrived ... the football game. Unfortunately, the score ended as 10-0, in the Cowboys’ favor. Some say per- formance was down because spirit was down. Rainy weather and the exaggerated controver- sy certainly did not help. However, the true spirit of Homecoming was held by those coming home.

Ranging from statements about treat- ment of Blacks in general to com- plaints of the seventh position on court, the signs expressed the minor- ity’s opinion. HOMECOMING The Controversy Controversy seems to be be- coming as much of a Home: coming tradition as the parade and football game. Due to trouble with the quo- ta system last year, the SGA simply decided to let the stu- dent body vote for the top six candidates in a free election. Even though a large number of blacks were in the run-off, the final outcome included only whites. 16H Homecoming In a frantic panic and with administrative pressure, the SGA enlarged the court by one position and included Karen Canady in the hopes of prevent- ing a disturbance from the black minority. It did not work. “| don’t think it was fair to put me on the court. If all whites made the court, then that’s the way it should be. They shouldn’t stick me on just to satisfy the minorities,’ said Canady. ; Having ‘‘token representa- tion’’ understandably insulted many blacks. The issue quickly expanded into a huge discrimi- nation protest that shadowed most of the weekend. Black Caucus President Mack Crayton and Pan-Hellenic President Ricky Carthon orga- nized the students on two even- ings to plan their strategy. During homecoming week there was a boycott of th | Homecoming pep rally and pi. rade. On Saturday evening aj proximately 65 students gat! ered and marched with pick signs to the game.

They re quested to have a minimum of 20 percent representation in all organizations since 20 percent of the student population is black. “Black students aren’t ask- ing for much, only for represen- tation and to be acknowledged at the university,’’ explained Carthon. Even though the protest was not carried out to its potential, Carthon said he thought it was effective. “It did serve its pur- pose, because people are look- ing into the problems, trying to see if discrimination exists.”’ However, many _ students, both black and white, consid- ered the Homecoming protest a ‘trumped up excuse for black inactivity’’ on campus. “It’s a lot easier then having courage, integrity and zeal to get involved. It’s a lot easier to feel sorry for yourself because you're the ‘poor little black kid’,”’ said Crystal Rae Coel in her letter to the editor of the Pow Wow. Other letters also expressed students’ frustration with what they felt to be a very exaggerat- ed picture of the issue. “The black girls involved in the spirit organizations are glad to know they were chosen for their talent and not the color of their skin,’’ said the Warbon- nets and Little Indians in their letter. They wrote in response to an attack that the judges for spirit group selection were not pro- fessional and that blacks were at a disadvantage in try-outs. As time passed the contro- versy died down. However, it left a bitter edge in the stu- dents’ memories of the 1985 Homecoming. — Elizabeth Gustwick Student Life 17 18 Current Events Images Events that shaped the year Nineteen eighty-five and 1986 have been years of trium- phant and tragic events. While these years brought crisis and grief for many in the way of terrorism, natural disasters and disease, all of this was second to an overriding spirit of drive and harmony. Politically, Reagan and Gor- bechav did not change the world with their peace talks in Geneva, but they did set the stage for more talks and co- operation in the future. Economically, a strong U.S. dollar lured many Americans abroad. This travel often led to the suffering of Americans by terrorist actions. Middle East terrorists relent- lessly used their tactics of hi- jacking and murder.

Leon Klinghoffer of New York, was killed in October of 1985 by the hi- jackers of the Italian Cruise ship, Achille Lauro. Robert Dean Stethen was killed on TWA flight 847 and terror- ists also hijacked the cruise lin- er Achille Lauro, killing Leon Klinghoffer. By the end of the summer, 1985 was already the bloodiest year in the history of aviation. There were four major crashes in which a total of 1,038 people were killed. Air India Boeing 747 crashed in the Atlantic; Japanese Airline 747 flew into a remote mountaintop; Delta L- 1011 at Dallas-Ft. Worth Inter- national Airport and Boeing 737 at Manchester, England.

For a week before the clash of helmets and shoulder pads, excitement began building and the tension of the game could be felt everywhere on campus. Events of all kinds highlight- ed the week of Nov. 4 through Nov. 9 which was officially hailed as ‘‘Wreck Tech Week” by enthusiastic Northeast stu- dents and fans. A midnight pep rally was a main part of the week on Thursday, Nov. 7 in Malone Stadium. The large crowd cheered and participated in chants led by the NLU Cheer- leaders. The Indian Scouts as- sisted with posters at the rally and put others up around cam- pus. “Wreck Tech” T-shirts were sold during the entire week by the Student Government Asso- ciation. Spirits indeed ran high during those spectacular few days. A rather bizarre incident did occur on Thursday, Nov. 7. Four NLU students were 28 Tech Rivalry a a aaa 99 caught and arrested by Tech Police. Approximately 25 stu- dents studying or working near- by a Howard Auditorium mar- quee had to be evacuated due to two “pipe bombs” found in that vicinity. The night of the game, Satur- day, Nov. 9, was in no way dulled by the event two days prior. Many NLU students and fans flocked to Joe Aillet Stadium to see the outcome of the battle. There seem to be many dif- ferent views on the game. In general, Kathy Abbott, a junior said, ‘It was the most exciting game ever in my opinion. | couldn’t believe how the team pulled it off in the last few min- utes.” On the other hand, David Salinero, also a junior said, ‘‘It really wasn’t an exciting game, but | was glad to see us win.”’ The game ended with NLU fans on their feet screaming with joy at the score of NLU over Tech 13 to 9. Throughout the year, sparks between the two schools continued to cause excitement and an intense ri- valry. — Connie Looney Extra luck is added by cheerleader Cin- dy Ohmer during the game against the Bulldogs.

If the shows chosen had not provided experience and ex- panded the knowledge of its participants, there would have been no need for them to be productions of a_ university. Both plays challenged the casts and crews to stretch their abilities and learning. “We really try to select plays that will be good for the educa- tion of NLU students,’ said Bunch. — Elizabeth Gustwick an | BY TENNESS WILLIAMS Laura Zaidain Laura Zaidain The actors, Felice (Gene Parker) and Clare (Patti Randol) watch in the back- ground as Felice (Barry Colvin) and Clare (Desiree Tisdale) struggle be- tween walking down the sidewalk or rushing back inside.

Having only three weeks for preparation, the cast had to work in high-gear. Through re- hearsals, the energy of the show grew, yet everything from costumes and sets to de- livery of the lines became more focused. “By becoming streamlined and simplified, the show was made clearer and more artis- tic,’ said Mara Loeb, the direc- tor.

Colors were limited to black, white, green and red to emphasize the season and compliment the overall simplicity. Originally, there were ideas for an elaborate set on wheels or wagons, according to Loeb. However, the plans were great- ly simplified, and a motionless, multi-level yet quite plain set was used. Those in character parts were distinguished from others by their lack of hand-held scripts. However, the chorus also participated in the action.

An initial hope for an ex- change program of theatrical students with the Avignon Uni- versity, resulted with an oppor- tunity to present a play in the Festival d’Avignon. “They don’t ‘do’ theatre in the universities; they study it,” said Tom Bunch, director, as he explained the difficulty in ar- ranging a compatible curricu- lum between the universities. Productions in Europe are presented by professional com- panies. Not only will NLU be the only American production to be at the festival, it will be the only university production. Before going to France, the play will be presented around the state. “Our challenge here will be to make the university, community and state aware of the project and get them be- hind us in support,’ said Bunch. The company will spend ap- proximately five weeks abroad. “Working” will play from July 11 through July 31. During that time, there will be 21 perfor- mances. Students will also spend three and half of the weeks tak- ing two hours of class per day about French theatre. After the festival is over, there will be some time for the students to relax and be tourists. “The show is about every- day people in everyday work that you see in life,’’ said Bunch, feeling confident that the public in France, as well as in Louisiana, will enjoy the play. There is hope that it will be possible to return to Avignon and develop a permanent sum- mer program. During the 1985 festival, ap- proximately 300 shows were presented in 25 days at 80 dif- ferent locations. “Theatre is everywhere (in Avignon). The exposure there for the students is overwhelm- ing!’ said Bunch. — Elizabeth Gustwick Student Life 56 International Students New land International students adjust to | College and America | They come from different lands, cultures and_ back- grounds yet they have one thing in common — to attain an education at NLU. NLU is home for more than 465 international students from countries such as Malaysia, Hong Kong, Mainland China and Iran. About 250 students reside on campus and many of the stu- dents do not return to their fam- ilies for the four years in which they attend college. Though there are many rea- sons why international stu- dents travel so far to attend NL, the main reason is to re- ceive a better education as op- posed to the education they would receive at home. “Not only does NLU offer a higher education, but the sys- tem is easier and it is organized much better,’’ said Billy Wong, a Malaysian student majoring in Computer Science. Because international stu- dents make tremendous sacri- fices in order to attend college, they often set higher goals and work extra hard to achieve these goals.

Decisions! College students are always able to find something amusing to do, espe- cially when they know that they should be studying. This dilemma brings them to the point of making a choice on where to go and what to do. The decision is usually easily taken care of by outwardly ex- pressed opinions of roommates or friends. They say, “‘Let’s go to a movie, bowling, or out to eat!’’ All of which can be found right here on campus. Many students enjoy going to the movie on campus each Wednesday night which is Hot Spots sponsored by the NLU Union Board. It only costs fifty cents with a student I.D. This price certainly beats the four dollars and fifty cents paid at the cine- mas in town. If students do not necessarily like what the UB is showing on campus, there is a large variety of great movies at the new Pe- canland Mall where you can choose from ten different fea- tures. On the other side of town, students will find Cinema Ill, Eastgate and the Plaza Twin Theatre. Bowling and playing pool are fun passtimes also found on campus in the Student Union Building; although, if it is a Sat- urday night, the whole student body is most likely to be found at a football or basketball game. If hunger strikes and a quick snack will help, stop off at ““Hardee’s.’’ This national fast food restaurant is also found in the SUB. Nevertheless, if a long week of being on campus becomes too much to bear, there is al- ways something to do off cam- pus. Students will find that Monroe is a city that is well blessed with a variety of night HOT SPOTS spots suited especially for the college lifestyle.

Each semester, most teach- ers proclaim that there is abso- lutely no plotting when the test schedules are arranged. But, students know better! How else was it possible for most classes to have test with- in a week of every other class, time after time? The methods used by stu- dents to prepare for tests vary as much as students do them- selves. Some review notes dur- ing the entire semester (the teacher’s dream). Others start as soon as a test is announced, which usually gives them about a week or so to get ready. However, many students wait until one, maybe two, days before the test date itself. This last minute delay is co- monly know as cramming. ‘It may not be ‘good’, but it’s the way most students study; | learn better doing it all at once,’’ said Cherie Tharpe, a business education major.

Richard Lupo i Coming and Going Commuters make time for It’s amazing! Sometimes it is even unbelievable how far one person will go to better himself and his life. This is literally what we mean when we talk about the 3,000 commuters who have. chosen Northeast Louisiana University as the place to make their dreams come true. They realize that it is the place to begin a better future for a better tomorrow. Some commuters even drive as much as 120 miles round trip each day to attend classes. If you do not live on campus, you can not sleep until seven- thirty in the morning and still be on time for an eight o’clock class. Believe it or not, some com- muters have to leave their homes by six o'clock in the Activities morning in order to make it on time for their eight o'clock classes. Needless to say, with all of the time commuters spend driving, study time must be hard to find. Between classes, it is common to find many com- muters relaxing in Hardee’s or in the Elbow-room. They might be cramming for a test, catching up on “the soaps”’ or even catching a few “777's.” Some commuters only drive a few miles. They come from West Monroe, Swartz, Bastrop and especially right here within Monroe. The main problem that they have is fighting the eight o'clock trafficc.

Some say that home is where the heart is. Often when we leave our home towns to come to college, our hearts re- main at home with the mem- bers of our family. We find our- selves being terribly homesick and lost. After several weeks, howev- er, we begin to find ourselves getting used to our new sur- roundings whether they be a dorm room, apartment, trailer or house. Soon posters, calendars, pic- tures and all types of memora- bilia plaster the wall. Guys seem to favor posters of gor- geous blondes in bikinis, where- as girls prefer handsome “Prince Charmings”’ in bikinis. Nevertheless, all parapherna- lias contribute to making our surroundings comfortable and lived in. There are many advantages and disadvantages to living on Home At NLU your own. Most important is an affordable price. Apartments in Monroe close to campus range from approximately $150 per month to $350 per month. Trailers tend to be slightly high- er with their range beginning at about $200 per month. Of course, rented houses are even more costly per month be- cause of much added, as well as needed, living space and lux- uries. They are also a problem in many ways because the maintenance is usually left up to the tenant, whereas most apartments are kept in good working order by the owner. Another aspect of living on or near campus is dorm life. Approximately 3,471 students attending Northeast Louisiana University live on campus. The cost of living in the dorm which includes meals at Gunby, Coenen, or Schultz Cafeteria vary from $891 to $1,089 for two to a room. A private room is $1,091 to $1,289. Living in the dorm adds much convenience in being close to classes, but dorm life also has its problems. Monique LeBlanc, a junior, says ‘First of all, dorm life is too noisy! It’s very hard to study. Being an _ upperclass- men, | don’t appreciate R.A.’s telling me what to do and how to do it. Also, the temperature in the dorms is always wrong. During warm weather, the air conditioners are always off and when it’s cold, the heaters are off.”’ Of all the students who do choose to live on campus, there are also those who choose to live at home. Cathy Zabaronick, a sopho- more, says, “! love Mom’s cooking too much to leave home, and | don’t have to wor- ry about washing my own clothes.” A similar response came from freshman Steve Cyrus who said, ‘‘Meals at home area lot better than on campus.

Student Life Te 76 =Fitness Everywhere you look these days there is someone exercising. The trend of the 1980s seems to be getting your body into top physical condition, Northeast students are not to be left out of this phe- nomenon. At NLU, fitness is a natural way of life for many students. For these people, satisfaction can be found in either jogging, weight lifting, aerobics or swimming. Common to the campus are those that jog every day. It may be early in the morn- ing, middle afternoon or late in the evening that these stu- dents will don their tennis shoes and hit the pavement. Not only do they job on the streets of the campus, but they also invade Ewing Coli- seum and Brown Stadium to Fitness The craze of the 80’s run their own marathons. Another type of fitness craze to hit the campus is weight lifting. For some stu- dents who would rather work out off campus, there are numerous health clubs available in the community. But for those students who want to stay right on cam- pus to build their bodies, NLU offers a weight room located in Brown Gym for full time students. Students can also take weight lifting classes for physical educa- tion credit. For those who want a lit- tle rhythm with their work out, there is aerobicising. Students can take aerobic classes for credit or just fun. Some people think that aero- bic classes are just for wom- en. Wrong! Campus aerobic classes are open to every- one. Some health clubs offer co-educational aerobic classes for their members. Some people think that swimming for exercise is only a summer sport. Not true! With an excellent facili- ty like the Oxford Natatori- um, students can take ad- vantage of swimming laps for fitness all year round. Whether your type of work out is lifting weights, jogging, swimming or aero- bics, physical fitness is one of the most popular pass times of the 1980s. With this type of enthusiasm about being healthy, students of the 80s and years to come will be more physically sound and better prepared to cope with a life of learn- ing. — Tammy Kaye Rodgers Mike Meeks Workouts come in many forms.

Whatever type of weather Monroe is having, it seems to stay for what seems like an eternity. During fall registration, not a cloud appeared in the sky. Na- ture seemed as if she wanted to lure the students back to the poolside rather than have them running frantically all over campus.

Although there is competition among each athlete for personal gains and scores, a team could never function if each participant didn’t play side by side with everyone. One reason Northeast sports have come such a long way is because of that unity. So, join in as we journey into the real action where bruises and pulled muscles are all a part of the game and where sportsmanship abounds. Ten ... Hut into athletic action! Experience breaks Records “I’m proud of the maturity the team has shown during the season,’ NLU swim team Coach John Pittington said. Both the men and women’s teams have completed their best season to date in 1985. Although the men had a young squad of twelve fresh- man, three sophomores, two ju- niors and one senior, they com- pleted their best season of 10-5. The women’s team was also short on experience with three freshmen, two sophomores, four juniors and two seniors. _ They also had a school record season of 8-4. During Pittington’s second year at NLU, team records fell at a dizzying pace. The wom- en’s team began the season with seven straight victories, abolishing the old victory high of six victories set in 1984. The men won 10 meets boosting its best record by two. Diver Kevin O’Rourke broke Brent Carr’s three year old re- cord on both the one and three meter board and thereby quali- fied for the NCAA regional championships. Shawn Bauer, freshman, set a new school record in the 200 freestyle of 1:43.23 and the 1,000 freestyle record of 9:31.89. Other men’s records were Mike Scrivner in the 100 indi- vidual medley (55.89), the 200 82 Swimming freestyle relay team of Vaughn Mansmann, Paul Peyton, Joe Sullivan and Robby Morris (1:35.54), and the 200 medley relay team of Scott Bouton, Scott Claycomb, John Ocken and David Fellerman (1:41.91). The women were equally ac- tive in setting school records. All-American candidate Linda Beck broke the record in the - 200 butterfly (2:09.24), the 100 butterfly (58.55) and the 1,000 freestyle (10:23.36). The women’s 400 freestyle relay team of Wendy Heinz, Trish Pencsak, Carol Moore and Linda Beck were the only qualifiers for the U.S. Swim- ming Senior National Cham- pionships, while breaking the previous NLU record by two seconds with a 3:38.21 clock- ing. Darren Fadgen set the stan- dard in the 200 freestyle (1:53.8) and the 500 freestyle (5:05.17). Carol Moore owns re- ‘cords in the 200 backstroke with a 2:15.8 clocking. The NLU swim team under the direction of John Pittington has made progress by leaps and bounds and Pittington sees bright things in the future for the NLU swimmers.

The experience that coach Holloway was referring to came in the form of all- American candidate JaNel Ed- wards and six other returning starters.

During the season, Edwards developed into an enforcer and intimidator in the Southland Conference volleyball ranks. She led all NCAA Division | blockers with an average of 2.68 per game and was an all- Southland Conference pick with 324 blocks in 121 games. ‘“‘JaNel should have her best season ever,’ added Holloway. “Although, it will be hard for her to repeat her performances of last season, she has the tools and she’s an exciting player to watch.” Edwards, who led the team in kills with 356, had a .298 hitting percentage, 49 service aces and tied the team lead in digs with 72. Other starters back on the team for another season in the conference race included set- ter-hitter Michele Griffin, hitters Angie Rodgigue and Kim Smith, setter Sandi Kicleter and setter-hitter Pat Windfield.

After winning the champion- ships for the fifth time last year, Murphy felt that this year other schools were not going to let NLC carry the national title back to Monroe again without a diligent battle. In previous years, NLU has faired well in the National Championships, but expecta- tions were high and there was much at stake for the Indians. Northeast had not lost a tour- nament since 1979. That tour- nament was won by a slim mar- gin of only 10 points when San Diego State slipped by the Tribe in the National Cham- pionships held in Monroe on Bayou DeSiard. The 1985 National Collegiate Water Ski Association Cham- pionships, or better known as ‘“‘Nationals’”’ were held Oct. 12 and 13 at Lake Tuskegee, Ala- bama with Auburn University serving as host for the event. The tournament consisted of teams from universities across the United States. Teams quali- fied for the tournament by win- ning either first or second in their respective regional cham- pionships. NLU earned its way there by dominating the South Central Regionals which were held in Zachary, La. and hosted by LSU. The Tribe eliminated the Sherri Slone churns by as she practices for the Sixth Annual National Colle- giate Water Ski Championships. Slone finished third in jumping and fourth in trick with 2,270 points. top runner-up, University of Texas, and outpointed them by a score of 6,530 to 4,885 to take the top position in the re- gion. The East Conference was re- presented by Virginia Tech in the Nationsls while the host team, Auburn University, and Clemson University represent: ed the South Atlantic Confer- ence. Kansas University and Michigan State were the Mid- west Region participants. The Western division repre- sentatives were Sacramento State and Cal State-Northridge. The Indians were led during the meet and throughout the year by three defending individ- ual champions: Kristi Hill, Fritz Harsch and 1985 men’s overall champion Zack Morgan. Each of these Tribe members, wheth- er together with other team- mates or on an individual level, contributed much to the suc- cess of the team. Women’s overall champion Kristi Hill recaptured the title she had previously held by placing in three events. Hill took first place in wom- en’s trick skiing by scoring 3,090 points, while claiming third place in women’s slalom with 63-2 buoys. She also was a contributing factor with a sec- ond place finish of 114 feet in the women’s jumping event. On the men’s squad, Harsch and Morgan dominated the scene especially in the slalom. Harsch and Morgan tied for first in the event with 63- % buoys. Morgan went on to capture his first title as men’s overall champion. He also gained 3,660 points for the team when he placed second in the trick event. In the jumping event Morgan also placed in sixth position with a distance of 139 feet. Sports National Title Continued Others who gained recogni- tion by placing in the cham- pionships were Terra Hancock, Cali Armstrong, Jill Norman, Sherri Slone, Sandy Wayman and Joe Godfrey. Hancock finished with a fourth place win and 63 buoys in the slalom event, while Cali Armstrong finished with a fifth place tie and 57 buoys in the same event. Norman placed in three dif- ferent events during the course of the championships. She was fifth in jumping at 98 feet, sev- enth with 56 buoys in slalom and had a second place finish in trick skiing with 2,340 points.

Mike Meeks Sports 93 | | i | | ql } | Indians Rewrite Records But Learn The Values Of | Experience In A Season That Tested Their _ Staying Power “We're going to find out how strong our program is this fall. We've lost a lot of talented players and there’s no question this is going to effect us. But we've got a number of good players coming back that can help.” “We've got some talent-we just don’t have the experienced talent we have had the past three years. We could have a good football team,” said Coach Pat Collins of his fifth NLU football team. Even though it was early in the season when Collins made these remarks about his team, he knew that experience comes with time. He also knew that nothing comes easy; at least not until some price has been paid. The price the Indians were to pay was to come in the form of a winning streak followed by a drastic shift in the wind which would leave the team fighting for conference survival. Throughout the season, each new game became more than just a contest between col- leges; they became an opportu- nity for the Indians to gain ex- perience. “Certainly we are ready to play a football game,”’ said Col- lins in regards to the first game of the season. “‘We have a lot of untested people, people that we think are talented. But no matter how many scrimmages you have you never know how they will look in a real game.” “This is a good test for us,’ added Collins. “This team has a good coach and had a good record last year. They've changed some personnel, but they have some great players coming back.” This was to be the first match-up between Delta State and NLU in 16 years, and with only six seniors on the active list for the Indians, there was some doubt about the young team. 94 Football When the two opposing teams finally met ona clear but humid September evening at Malone Stadium, doubts did not begin to fade away for the 18,125 spectators until after the first 20 minutes of play. The Indians, even though in- experienced, were beginning to bring big play action to the field as they started to dominate the game with effective passing. There were five magnificent pass completions of 35 yards or more by Northeast; one of which was a 77 yard scoring pass from quarterback Walter Brister to tight end Chad Peter- son that tied for the eighth long- est pass in school history. Split end Chris Jones was the recipient of the other four long distance passes. Records began to crumble, or at least shake, as Jones scored two touchdowns on two of the com- pletions and gained the sixth highest total by an Indian re- ceiver. This milestone was the highest ever by a player in his first start with 164 yards. In his debut as starting quar- terback, Brister became the na- tional passing leader in 1-AA NCAA rankings after hitting 17 of 26 passes for 333 yards. This record was the fifth highest game total by an Indian passer and earned him the ‘“‘Offensive Player of the Week”’ award. The kicking game, however, was one of the only disappoint- ments of the night and was due, in part, to the high expec- tations entering the season. Punter Kevin Duhe averaged 34.7 yards punting compared to 40.0 last year, and Teddy Garcia was only two for four on field goals. The Indians gained a total of 474 yards offensively, held Del- ta State to only 228 yards de- fensively and defeated the Statesmen by a score of 27-7. The season was just begin- ning for the Indians, and as Col- lins aptly said “School is still out on us. We played hard but we made a ton of mental errors. We have some talent but we are young.” One week later the Indians found themselves facing a Southwest Conference team for the first time ever when they traveled to College Sta- tion, Texas to go head on with the Aggies of Texas A M. The Texas team was ranked as one of the toughest teams in 1-AA football, according to the NCAA. Yet, the Indians man- aged to battle the Aggies on even terms for most of the game, were tied at halftime and were only a touchdown behind until the final 90 seconds of the game. A 53 yard pass from Brister connected with split end Benny Mitchell for an Indian touch- down which was the first of the game. Then, just before halftime’ Brister made a five yard toss tc Mike Manzullo which was car ried in for another touchdowy that tied the score 14-14. The Aggies quickly retaliaf goal.

The defensive unit, led by linebacker Roger Kelly, end Will Johnson and backs Mike Turner and Cyril Crutchfield, played a great game and came up with big plays time after time to give the offensive unit good field position. Crutchfield led the team in tackles with 16 and had an in- terception. Turner was in on 10 tackles, intercepted a pass and an extra point attempt and also had one quarterback sack.

That’s what happened late in the game. We have got to have more balance and consistency in our of- fense.” Balance came to the Indians in early October when they traveled to Natchitoches to play the Demons of Northwes- tern State. Brister was the main source of this needed balance as he turned on the excitement and action with 23 of 27 pass- ing completions for 339 yards and two touchdowns.

Tech Bulldogs with a 13-9 league decision vic- tory. ‘We had patience on offense and we were able to run the ball better than we have in several games,’’ said Collins. ‘‘Our of- fensive coaches developed an excellent game plan and the key was that we were patient and deliberate.”’ The Indians threw only 20 times which was the fewest of the season. They ran the ball 56 times which was the most of any game. The runners respon- sible for the carries in the game were Jimmy Harris, Mike Woo- ten and freshman redshirt Da- vid Christmas. Kicker Teddy Garcia, who accounted for seven of the 13 points scored, also had a terrif- ic night. Receivers Mike Man- zullo and Benny Mitchell faired well in the game as their sea- sonal totals in catches in- creased to 29 and 25 respec- tively. The only Southland Confer- ence team that the Indians had never beaten in conference play was North Texas State University. To go along with that past record, there was also the dreaded “‘Post Tech Game Syndrome’”’ which has always plagued the Indians. The Indi- ans never had won a game after beating the Bulldogs, but this year things were different. In a thrilling and historical victory over the Eagles of North Texas State, the Indians managed to clinch their fourth consecutive winning season with a score of 18-17. The vic- tory came as a dramatic last minute effort and erased the old “Post Tech Game Syn- drome.” Walter Brister’s 63 yard touchdown pass to Benny Mitchell followed by a two point conversion to Keith Ru- fus with 52 seconds left to play drove the final nails in the cof- fin for the Eagles. This win over a member of the NCAA 1-AA top 10 for the second time in 96C__—sC Football three weeks enhanced the Indi- ans’ chance for a place in the 1- AA playoffs. Hopes were high when league leader Arkansas State came to Malone Stadium for the final game of the season. The Indians’ hopes were riding primarily on the passing abili- ties of quarterback Walter Bris- ter and co-winner of the ‘‘Offen- sive Player of the Week’’ award, receiver Benny Mitch- ell. The Arkansas State Cniversi- ty Indians were _ nationally ranked by Football News 1-AA at third and had been tied for seventh a week earlier in the NCAA rankings. They were also ranked number two by USA Today computer rankings while NLU was picked number ten, Northeast used different plays and mixed the game up as much as possible against the number one 1-AA defense in the nation. Even though Arkan- sas State clinched another vic- tory at the expense of North- east, the Tribe did manage to gain the most allowed all sea- son by the team with a score of 23 points and 411 yards. Northeast used onside kicks, fake punts and went for the first down on fourth-and-one at their own 29. The onside kick worked and so did the fourth- and-one try but neither led to a score. Northeast was finally de- feated by a score of 31-23. Only three of the players who started against Arkansas State were seniors, and Collins is looking forward to next sea- son with enthusiasm. “We will have 19 starters and both of our kickers returning next sea- son and our strong finish this year gives us a lot of impetus going into spring practice and next fall,’ Collins said. ‘“‘We look forward to next season with a lot of anticipation and excitement and our fans should also.” — Clyde Dearman Did he make it? On the sidelines, Indian teammates await the referee's signal on the touchdown that upset Louisiana Tech. Coach Pat Collins takes a moment to think about possible improvements while directing his fifth Indian football team in the early part of the season. 96 Football After the opening quarter, the Indians were in control of the ball game but failed to cash in on several scoring opportuni- ties. Nicholls State made a last ditch attempt to out-score the Indians by driving 80 yards in the closing moments of the ball game but free safety Mike Turner intercepted a two point pass attempt in the end zone to save the win. The defensive unit, led by linebacker Roger Kelly, end Will Johnson and backs Mike Turner and Cyril Crutchfield, played a great game and came up with big plays time after time to give the offensive unit good field position. Crutchfield led the team in tackles with 16 and had an in- terception. Turner was in on 10 tackles, intercepted a pass and an extra point attempt and also had one quarterback sack. Kel- ly had eight tackles including two sacks while Johnson made 10 tackles including three quar- terback sacks. “Offensively, we had some The 1985 Football Team.

That’s what happened late in the game. We have got to have more balance and consistency in our of- fense.”’ Balance came to the Indians in early October when they traveled to Natchitoches to play the Demons of Northwes- tern State. Brister was the main source of this needed balance as he turned on the excitement and action with 23 of 27 pass- ing completions for 339 yards and two touchdowns. Brister and his favorite tar- get, Chris Jones, entered their names in the NLC record book as a result of the victory over the Demons by a score of 45- 21.

Fourth row: Larone Secrese, Elwin Evans, Vaurice John- son, Dan Sorey, Benny Mitchell, Shawn Nelson, while Brister managed to have his third 300 yard passing game. The running game became prevalent again when running backs, Mike Wooten and Jim- my Harris, experienced better than usual games. Wooten ran for 71 yards on 15 carries with three touchdowns while Harris racked up 57 yards rushing on 14 carries. The Indians were well on their way into the season or so it seemed, but they were just beginning their regular confer- ence play when they were paired up with Lamar in Beau- mont, Texas. The Cardinals, who were ranked in the top-20 by two na- tional 1-AA_ rankings, found that the Indians were on the warpath for this first confer- ence game when they were de- feated by the Tribe by a score of 37-14.

The final non-conference game for the Indians, against the Southeastern Louisiana University Lions at Strawberry Stadium in Hammond on Oct. 19th, was more like the ‘Twi- light Zone”’ than a football con- test. There was an air of unreality from the start of the game when the scoreboard, including the clock, went out and never became operational again. Early in the first quarter, Northeast fans were catapulted through time and space to earli- er years when the Indians were less talented than the present team and outplayed SLU only to lose in the end. The Indians had 18 more first downs, gained 126 more yards rushing, completed seven more passes and gained 64 more yards in the air than SLU. How- ever grand the statistics were, they were not enough to erase the loss to the Lions by a score of 19-17. “It was a comedy of errors, a total lack of concentration.”’ said Collins, “Signs of not be- ing mentally alert.’’ The Indians fumbled six times and lost four, Running back Mike Wooten looks for an opening as he attempts to gain enough yardage for the first down in the game with Louisiana Tech Universi- ty.

The Indians were once again on the conference road with five games left for the season and chance to prove them- selves in league action when they opposed the Mavericks of the University of Texas-Arling- ton. Injury added to loss brought the Tribe down as Chris Jones, number one received in the conference with 33 catches for 774 yards and four _touch- downs, suffered a torn ligament and cartilage damage while running a pass pattern on artifi- cial turf early in the game. Jones would be unable to play again for the season. “We made a defensive ad- justment for the UTA game and that was a mistake on my part,’’ Collins said in reference to the change from the usual four-two man arrangement to the five man front. Many rea- sons contributed to the loss by a score of 27-13 to the Maver- icks, but none more than the youthfulness and inexperience of the team. Still ranked in team statis- tics, the Indians were number one in the Southland Confer- ence and in the top 20 in nation- al rankings in both passing of- Wooten, a freshman redshirt, ran for 62 yards against Tech and lead the Indians with that yardage.

Even though the Indians were making mistakes, they were learning and gaining experience from their mis- takes. November brought about cooler weather and the return of alumni for the homecoming game with McNeese State. A frustrating homecoming game that was played on a field of mud and water, resulted in the first shutout for the Indians in 66 games and the third defeat in a row for the suffering team. A defeat which almost eliminat- ed the Indians from the confer- ence race. “Our players are playing hard but we are not winning,” said Collins after homecoming. “We did not have any consis- tency on offense; it seems that each week its one thing and the next it is something else. On defense, we had a great effort although we lost our intensity in the fourth quarter. We con- tinue to have problems with our kicking game although we did do some things right.”’ After the 10-0 homecoming loss to the Cowboys, Collins be- gan to reevaluate his job and began searching for new ways to bring back success to the Indians. ‘‘We are going to do | our damndest to put together game plans that will give our players the opportunity to win,” said Collins. Three days later, offensive coordinator and assistant head football coach Jere Stripling re- signed. ‘‘In the last year, Coach Collins has expressed to me that he was disappointed in the offense’s performance and point production,” said Stri- pling. ‘‘Perhaps with new lead- ership, one in which Coach Col- lins will express confidence, NLU can win these next three games.” While Stripling was at NLU, the Indians set season records for most yards rushing, most yards passing, most yards in total offense and most points scored. NLU had led the South- land Conference in total offense in two of the three years the school has been a member. Students and staff began to think of new ways to build team spirit. Morale was dipping to an all time low and everyone involved in football knew that something had to be done. At a midnight pep rally for the Indians, Coach Collins stat- ed priorities for fans: ‘God, Family and NL football.” Change did come for the Indi- ans.

Tech Bulldogs with a 13-9 league decision vic- tory. “We had patience on offense and we were able to run the ball better than we have in several games,”’ said Collins. ‘‘Our of- fensive coaches developed an excellent game plan and the key was that we were patient and deliberate.” The Indians threw only 20 times which was the fewest of the season. They ran the ball 56 times which was the most of any game. The runners respon- sible for the carries in the game were Jimmy Harris, Mike Woo- ten and freshman redshirt Da- vid Christmas. Kicker Teddy Garcia, who accounted for seven of the 13 points scored, also had a terrif- ic night. Receivers Mike Man- zullo and Benny Mitchell faired well in the game as their sea- sonal totals in catches in- creased to 29 and 25 respec- tively. The only Southland Confer- ence team that the Indians had never beaten in conference play was North Texas State University. To go along with that past record, there was also the dreaded ‘‘Post Tech Game Syndrome” which has always plagued the Indians. The Indi- ans never had won a game after beating the Bulldogs, but this year things were different. In a thrilling and historical victory over the Eagles of North Texas State, the Indians managed to clinch their fourth consecutive winning season with a score of 18-17. The vic- tory came as a dramatic last minute effort and erased the old “Post Tech Game Syn- drome.”’ Walter Brister’s 63 yard touchdown pass to Benny Mitchell followed by a two point conversion to Keith Ru- fus with 52 seconds left to play drove the final nails in the cof- fin for the Eagles. This win over a member of the NCAA 1-AA top 10 for the second time in 96C ‘Football three weeks enhanced the Indi- ans’ chance for a place in the 1- AA playoffs. Hopes were high when league leader Arkansas State came to Malone S tadium for the final game of the season. The Indians’ hopes were riding primarily on the passing abili- ties of quarterback Walter Bris- ter and co-winner of the ‘‘Offen- sive Player of the Week” award, receiver Benny Mitch- ell. The Arkansas State Universi- ty Indians were nationally ranked by Football News 1-AA at third and had been tied for seventh a week earlier in the NCAA rankings. They were also ranked number two by USA Today computer rankings while NLU was picked number ten. Northeast used different plays and mixed the game up as much as possible against the number one 1-AA defense in the nation. Even though Arkan- sas State clinched another vic- tory at the expense of North- east, the Tribe did manage to gain the most allowed all sea- son by the team with a score of 23 points and 411 yards. Northeast used onside kicks, fake punts and went for the first down on fourth-and-one at their own 29. The onside kick worked and so did the fourth- and-one try but neither led to a score. Northeast was finally de- feated by a score of 31-23. Only three of the players who started against Arkansas State were seniors, and Collins is looking forward to next sea- son with enthusiasm. “We will have 19 starters and both of our kickers returning next sea- son and our strong finish this year gives us a lot of impetus going into spring practice and next fall,’ Collins said. ‘‘We look forward to next season with a lot of anticipation and excitement and our fans should also.” — Clyde Dearman Did he make it?

In six seasons with the Indian soccer team, Kane has never had a losing season. This bit of information may not seem wor- thy of much more than men- tion or statistical reference; however, in reality it is not a bad record considering the fact that Kane started the soccer program at NLU from scratch and has maintained and built the sport to its present status. “We lost three games to ranked teams by one point. That should give folks some in- dication of how well we played.’’ Those teams which edged by NLU were Southern Methodist University, North Texas State and Alabama A M. Each of these teams were nationally ranked when they met with the Indians. In the time he has served as head soccer coach at NLU, Kane has never failed to pro- duce a winning soccer team. Overall, Kane has a record of 57 wins, 37 losses and five ties with last seasons 10-9-2 record included. “I’m real pleased with our schedule this season,’’ added Kane. “If we can knock off some of those schools, it should prove we deserve to be in the top twenty.” Six ranked teams; SMU, Alabama A M, Midwestern State, South Flor- ida, North Texas State and Mike Pickett brings himself sliding to the ground as he attempts to move the ball towards the goal during a home game against Rhodes College. Southern Illinois, were sched- uled to do battle with NLU. There were two key players, Mike Pickett and Juan Simal, who returned from the pre- vious season. Both team mem- bers were starters from the 1984 season, but each had to deal with injuries sustained dur- ing play. Pickett played in only seven games during the previous sea- son because of a broken collar- bone, but returned as one of the teams’ captains this season. Simal, one of the fastest players on the squad, scored three goals and was in on one assist for seven points as mid- fielder last season, but was lost this season because of exten- sive knee injuries. ‘‘We’re gonna miss Juan, but we'll have to make adjust- ments. It will be tough, but | believe we can pull together and end the season on a suc- cessful note.”’ These words were offered by Coach Kane and explain his optimism and desire to win despite the loss of a key player. As the squad began its sec- ond half of scheduled play for the season, Kane was proud of his team’s accomplishments. “| think we’ve done a pretty fair job. Of the 12 games we played, nine were away, and we managed to post a winning re- cord.”’ That record, at mid-sea- son, was 5-4-3. Kane went on to say, “The second half kinda favors us. After the two out of town games, we play four in a row at home which is always good.”’ The Indians still had a chance to be invited to post-season play if they continued to play well and capitalized from the home field advantage. — Clyde Dearman Indian defenders Mike Pickett and Sel- vyn Brown are “up in the air” while opponents from Rhodes College try to regain control of the ball.

When students selected their Health and Physical Education classes, little did they know that fellow students would be their instructors. Dr. Billy Daniel, head of the Department of Health and Physical Education maintains that the graduate assistants are qualified and experienced in the areas which they instruct. ‘“‘The students are required to have background experience and also to be a graduate in the field for which they are need- ed,” said Dr. Daniel. The graduate assistants are all required to take at least nine hours of courses towards their masters degree in a particular field of emphasis. They must also have a minimum grade point average of at least 2.5 and have fulfilled all require- ments assigned to graduate stu- dents working towards a mas- ters degree. “Most of them are taking a full load of classes and instruct- Graduate Donald Wheeler helps his conditioning class prepare for running.

He obtained his degree from NLU in August 1985 and has worked for and attended college here since that time as an instructor of various classes. Tenley Ammerman, a trans- fer graduate student from Indi- ana University of Pennsylvania, was another graduate assistant who was listed as_ instructor STAFF in the class schedules. As an aerobic dance instruc- tor for the Department of Health and Physical Education and as a strength instructor for the Athletic Department, Am- merman’s position was one of dual talent and experience.” When asked why she chose NL for continuing education, Ammerman replied, “‘The fa- cilities, the people, and this was the only offer in strength training that | received.

Billy Heckford A Sports 117 The Lady Indians Continue In Their Winning Ways Nineteen eighty-five was a year of breaking records. In a pre-season poll, three Louisiana university basketball teams were chosen to gain national ranking in the top twenty by Women’s Court magazine. Picked to finish third in the nation, the Lady Indians had high hopes and expectations. But the Indians exceeded even this high goal. In the final national top twen- ty poll, Women’s Court maga- zine placed NLU in the number two slot and they were declared as the NCAA Midwest Regional Champions. Northeast boasted the na- tion’s best record in NCAA Di- vision | and the best record in school history with a tally of 30-2. The team claimed the Southland Conference for the third straight year and on their journey towards the top defeat- ed nationally ranked top twen- ty teams such as Louisiana Tech, Mississippi, Tennessee, San Diego State and Auburn. As a NCAA final four semi- finalist, Northeast lost 57-47 to the eventual national champi- ons, Old Dominion in the semi- finals at the University of Tex- as in Austin. In the 1986 pre-season rank- ing, NLU was again ranked high in the nation; the Indians were listed third only behind Texas and Georgia. Coach Linda Harp- er and the Lady Indians may have received this distinction in part, because of the return of all five starters plus two top substitutes. Heading the list was, per- haps, the best trio in the nation — all-Americans Eun Jung Lee, Lisa Ingram and Chana Perry. Coach Harper’s ‘Big Three’ returned in 1986 stron- ger than ever. Lee, the school’s first Kodak all-American, had received nu- merous honors on the court in- cluding three year all-Ameri- can, freshman _ all-American, Southland Conference player of the year and according to Street and Smith’s Basketball Yearbook’s Women’s Report, an all-world point guard. Quite a large honor for the 5 foot 5 inch South Korean, but it was her playing ability that 118 Women’s Basketball merited these awards. Her style was described as electric, which grants 18.0 points per game and 8.9 assists last sea-. son. Ingram, the Lady Indians’ leading scorer for the past three seasons, held almost ev- ery shooting record in the NLU record book. The 6 foot 3 inch _center had scored 1,933 points in three years while pulling down 898 rebounds. She can become the first NLU player to score over 2,000 points and grab 1,000 rebounds during a career at NLU. As the nation’s number two high school player in 1982, In- gram had continued in excel- , lence with her selection as Ko- dak all-district VI and all-Ameri- can by Women’s Basketball News Service. Last season, she led the team with 21.2 points per game, second in rebounding at 9.6 per outing and 58 blocked shots in the season. A 6 foot 4 inch forward, Chana Perry made every pub- lished freshman all-American team last season and was named USA Today’s Player of the Year. Perry pulled down a school record 387 rebounds last season, an average of 12.5 per outing, and led the team in blocked shots with 72. Earning a spot on the World University Games team, Perry represented NLU in the sum- mer of 1985 and was selected as Women’s Basketball Year- book’s Freshman of the Year. Chrissa Hailey, known as NL(’s ‘‘zone buster,” was known to play defense, both Northeast’s and opponent’s. Last season, she tossed in an average of eight points a game and 81 assists for the year. Known as the ‘‘skywalker”’ for her leaping ability, 5 fot 9 inch Jocelyn Hill scored 5.3 points per game and grabbed 6.1 rebound per game, but her best attribute was without stat- istics: defense. She was select- ed as the team’s Defensive Player of the Year in 1985. Other players returning from the 1985-1985 season and con- tributing much were Joel Tillis, Janice Saulsberry and Renee Woodfin.

With the addition of new tal- ent and the return of key play- ers, the Lady Indians were con- fident in their ability to work confidently as a team. All three new recruits vied for playing time on the court. In the season opener against Ole Miss, both Jones and Ballenger were team standouts. Jones scored ten points with three of those being in overtime. The Lady Indians went on to win 82- 80 over the University of Mis- sissippi. In the Converse-Pepsi Texas Classic, one of three tourna- ments NLU competed in, Northeast broke or tied 14 meet records and reset 18 of 37 single game marks. They emerged as the runner-up team against number one ranked, University of Texas. Pressure was applied in full force early in the season when Northeast was pitted against Mississippi, Texas, Penn State, Miami, San Diego State and AI- corn. “It’s hard to compare this year to last year.

The pressure grew still great- er when the NCAA placed Northeast on probation for re- cruiting violations on Jan. 9, 1986, which ruled Chana Perry ineligible. The Southland Conference athletic directors voted unani- mously to consider the Lady In- dians ineligible to win the SLC title and their wins will not be reflected in the SLC standings. The Lady Indians rebounded from this blow with solid victo- ries over Arkansas State, San Diego State and Lamar, plus the goal of winning every game left on the schedule. Northeast faced arch rival Louisiana Tech with both teams trying to recover from losing starters. The number three ranked Lady Techsters lost forward Nora Lewis, while number 14 ranked NLU was without post Chana Perry. Iron- ically, both players were USA Today’s high school player of the year. During the match, NLU took an early lead against Tech, and from five minutes into the con- test, the Lady Techsters never reached within four points of the Lady Indians. Louisiana Tech succumbed to Northeast 86-76, where the key was a new school record of 36 free throws. Midway through the confer- ence games, Ingram was the team leader in both scoring and rebounding with 22.6 points, and 9.7 points, respectively. Ingram became the first women’s basketball player in the history of Northeast to break the 2,000 point barrier in the game against Alcorn State. She was in pursuit of Calvin Natt’s all time mark of 2581 points. Lee became the second NLU women’s basketball player to cross the 2,000 point barrier in the game against McNeese. Lee can also become the first wom- en's basketball player in NCAA history to score 2,000 points and have 1,000 assists. Northeast continued in their winning ways by again defeat- ing Louisiana Tech. Northeast ended an 11-year dry spell in Ruston by breaking the number fourranked Lady Techsters’ home winning streak of 62- games with an 82-74 upset. NLU is protecting their pris- tine record of no losses to Southland Conference competi- tion since the conference’s in- ception, as well as boosting their record to 20-3. — Clyde Dearman Lisa Ingram guards the goal against arch rival Louisiana Tech.

Two more pro draftees came from Northeast in the 1980s, Kenny Natt and Eugene Robin- son. The Indians participated in their first NCAA Tournament and the winning trend has be- come a solid tradition that has earned the tribe the number eight spot in the nation for con- secutive non-losing seasons.

Eric Hanso ¢) Former Lady Indian Becomes ennis Pro “Maria has jelled into a promising young star. We hate to see her leave, but only Maria knows what’s best for Maria.”’ Tennis coach Charlene Grafton had these words to offer in be- half of NLU tennis star Maria Lindstrom after Lindstrom for- mally announced that she had decided to go pro and forego her final two years at NLU. Lindstrom, a two-time South- land Conference singles and doubles champion, made it to the final round of 16 in the NCAA Tournament in Oklaho- ma City last season. She leaves NLU with a 92 win 16 loss overall record in singles and a smashing 61 win 11 loss record for the 1984-85 season. In addition to finishing num- ber ten in singles, the highest ranking of any tennis player in school history, Lindstrom and ‘1 feel like its time to go on ... now’s the time for me to try my luck at the pro ranks.” Mike Meeks Mike Meeks doubles partner Lillemor Hed- berg concluded the year tied for number 23. “IT know that being a profes- sional you have to play every point as you played the point before ... all out,’ added Lind- strom. “In college you don’t have to do that all the time.” Lindstrom won three titles in her native country, Sweden, last summer. She took the Swedish Open singles title and joined with fellow countrywom- an Elizabeth Ekblom to win the doubles title July 15, 1985 in Bastad. She later whipped the world’s number one player, Ca- tarina Lindquist, in straight sets (6-4,6-0) to claim the Swedish National Tournament in Stock- holm. “Winning both tournaments had a lot to do with my deci- sion,’ said Lindstrom. “Now | know what | can do, and | have more patience and concentrate more.”’ “| feel like it’s time to go on. Things have gone well for me this summer, and | feel like now's the time to try my luck at the pro ranks. I've really en- joyed my stay at Northeast. NL runs a class program, and I'm really going to miss the coaches and students.”’ Clyde Dearman Is it the three tennis stooges?

Finley has been signed by the California Angels as the fourth player picked in Janu- ary’s draft. “We knew going in that it could be a tough year because of our inexperience,” said NLU head baseball coach Lou St. Amant. “We were hoping to play .500 baseball or better and we did that.” St. Amant hoped to play better in the conference race but had no luck. He went on to say, “Our pitching was not as good as | had anticipated, we played poorly in the field at times, and we had trouble scoring run- ners.”” — The 1986 season should be better with more experience coming off of the bench.

The team went 34-32-1 with a 7-5-0 mark in the conference under the first year head coach Rosemary Holloway. The Lady Indians hosted the conference in the underdog position against defending champions, Southwestern Louisiana MUni- versity. “I felt that all the pressure was on USL and we could just go out and play the kind of ball we are capable of,’ Coach Holloway said. A 5-1 tourna- ment record justifies their capa- bilities as a team. Seven members of the North- east squad have been named to the all-conference team. Three were placed on the first team — pitcher Wilanne Stewart, second baseman Allison Nevils and shortstop Millie George. Making the second squad were outfielders Michele Spanos and Kathy Aulds, catcher Shelly Monroe and des- ignated hitter Delanie Pimental. NLU’s Cheryl McKenney made the honorable mention list.

Sports 139 140 NCAA Subcommittee Places Northeast On PROBATION The 1985-86 basketball sea- son had been a season of high hopes and shattered dreams. This season was speculated to send the Lady Indians back to the NCAA finals. In a pre-season poll, the Lady Indians were ranked Number 3 in the nation by Women’s Court Magazine. This dream died when the National Colle- giate Athletic Association placed Northeast on probation for recruiting violations effec- tive Jan. 9, 1986. These violations centered around the recruitment of freshman all-American Chana Perry. The probation sentence also stipulated that coach Lin- da Harper would be unable to engage in off-campus recruiting during the probation period and Perry was also declared ineligi- ble. Frank J. Remington and the NCAA Committee of Infrac- tions pointed to six violations in Perry's recruitment. They included violation of the principles of ethical con- duct and cooperation, viola- tions of NCAA legislation in the recruitment of a prospective student-athlete during the spring of 1984 and failing to cooperate with a NCAA investi- gator. This was the first time a women’s basketball program has been penalized by the NCAA, so it created a stir ona nation-wide basis. A variety of reactions have been engendered by the penal- ties from the world of women’s basketball. “| think these penalties are very harsh, considering the charges they are based on,”’ Northeast athletic director Benny Hollis said. “This is the first significant penalty imposed upon North- east by a national organization or conference in our 53 years of existence and we intend for it to be our last,’’ Hollis contin- Feature ue He believe the penalties im- posed in this case were exces: sive ..., but we accept them with a renewed intention to run a clean quality athletic pro- gram.” The University did not at- tempt to appeal the NCAA's de- cision but NLU did attempt to have Perry reinstated as an eli- gible player. This first appeal was heard on Jan. 23, 1986 by the NCAA Eligibility Subcom- mittee. The decision handed down by the committee was that Per- ry could never play again for the Lady Indians, but if she wanted to she could transfer to any other university and play basketball at that school. According to NCAA rules, the second appeal currently be- ing prepared by the University must be based on a new angle or new information. NLU President Dwight Vines said that the investigation would ‘“‘never have come up had we not been competing (in Perry’s recruitment) with one particular instituton.”’ Vines declined to name the institution, but it was widely known that Louisiana State University was also competing to add Perry to their roster. Some people believe LSU ini- tiated the NCAA investigation. Others name Louisiana Tech as the informant. Not only has Northeast been banned from post season play by the NCAA, the Southland Conference has also banned their competition for the con- ference title. Northeast has held the SLC title since its for- mation in 1982. — Clyde Dearman Perry reaches to tip the ball to a team- mate and thus beginning the game for the Lady Indians.

Sports 141 Heckford The Indian golfers returned to the course with many new faces and much uncertainty. Even though the club picked up several top recruits, the young team was faced with in- tercollegiate inexperience and was destined to pay its dues before being recognized in a league supported by big name clubs with excess experience. The Indian golfers did indeed pay their dues when they found themselves facing teams like LSU, Mississippi State, Ole Miss, Florida State, MeNeese and Lamar. In early season play against these clubs, the Indians would up finishing 14th, 4th, 8th, 11th and 15th. Expectations were not high for the untested team; howev- er, in late spring action, the In- dians proved themselves and recovered from earlier losses by winning third place in the 22nd Annual Southland Confer- ence Championship Tourna- ment. The Indians shot 875 to fin- ish third behind seventh ranked Lamar and McNeese in the championship tournament which was held at Bastrop’s Morehouse Country Club. This finish was NLU’s highest in sev- en tournaments. Frankie Grimes concentrates on aim and direction as he squats and eyeballs the path with which the ball will need to travel. Todd Sanders led the Indians with a finish that gave him a tie for seventh place in the confer- ence tournament with an even par 216. Sanders shot the team’s best round of the season on the first day of the tourna- ment with a six-under-par 66. Three other Indians finished in the top 20 at the tourna- ment. Bart Dornier finished with 221 and ranked 16 while Chris Berry, the defending league champion and Gary Jef- frey tied with 223 to share the 18th position. Sanders wound up as the team season leader with a 76- stroke average over 15 rounds. Dornier also had a 76.0 average but played only six rounds. Ber- ry averaged 77.6, Jeffery 77.9, Phillip Lester 78.0, Scott Mar- tin 78.6 and Tim Wesson round- ed out the top seven with 79.8. — Clyde Dearman A putt on the green is no problem for Indian golfer Gary Jeffrey.

Sports 149 Changes Occur For Lady Indians In A Dynamic Season The 1985 Lady Indian tennis team experienced many excit- ing and dramatic changes in 1985: changes which gained them national attention and set the stage for national recogni- tion. The first change, which oc- cured early in the season, was the loss of six year veteran and Southland Conference ‘‘Coach of the Year,’ Mary Nyholm, in August. This sudden and seemingly tragic loss left the team with- out a head coach for more than three months; however, the res- ignation didn’t hurt the teams’ morale or judgment. “Being without a head coach gave us a chance to get our priorities straight. We proved to ourselves and everybody else that we are not just pam- pered athletes but ones who feel that academics and athlet- ics are important. | think that we proved that we have the right stuff to succeed.”’ These words of enthusiasm were spoken by team captain Pernilla Hallberg as she con- veyed the teams’ feelings of dedication and optimism dur- ing a time of uncertainty. During this time of eager an- ticipation and uncertainty, Ke- vin Forbes, a former Indian net- “Pernilla is small but has a great over- head. She has no flaws in her game. She will go far in whatever she chooses to do, either tennis or in her career.” Coach Grafton 150 Women’s Tennis Richard Lupo “The strength and depth of our team is awesome. | predict that we shall have a very successful spring if anyone out- side of our conference has the guts to play us.” -Stephanie Burnam ter, helped keep the team to- gether and in shape. The lack of guidance and _ instruction from a qualified coach, howev- er, left its mark on the team. All uncertainty ended with the arrival of multi-talented ten- nis professional Charlene Graf- ton in November. Also known as the ‘Guru of Pensacola,”’ Grafton brought with her a wealth of tennis knowledge and a host of psychological tricks to the team. The team consisted of top ranked Maria Lindstrom who later in the season went pro after compiling some impres- sive national rankings; second ranked Pernilla Hallberg; thi ranked Lillemor Hedber fourth ranked Stephanie Bi nam; fifth ranked Leslie Henr sixth ranked Annabelle Lanc and Julie Adams ranked at se} en. Lindstrom, with a match |} tal of 61-11, ended the seasi) with a singles percentage .847 and a doubles percenta) of .767. She also was the fil NLU tennis player in history ) accomplish a national ranki)| of ten. Hallberg wound her last ye’ § of play up with a total of 23-1), wins to losses, and a perce) age of .622 in singles play anc) ty � ercentage of .771 in doubles. berg 1 Bu f Hedberg wrapped up the sea- son ranked number three in sin- {yy gles in the Southland Confer- and ence with a total of 31-11 over- ill and a percentage of .738 in singles action while gaining a 'yercentage of .800 in doubles. Burnam finished the season | vith an overall of 18-19 and a | vercentage of .486 in singles ind was 23-12 in doubles with a ) ercentage of .657. Lindstrom and Hedberg yaired in doubles to form an iwesome team that took the jumber one Southland Confer- | nce doubles title. The pair fin- ) shed the year with a ranking of '3 nationally. ' Another loss occured with he announcement by Lind- trom that she was going to forego her last two years at Northeast and go pro (see Ten- nis Pro pages 132-33). The team sustained the loss of the two-time Southland Con- ference singles and doubles champion; however, the team will be revived through the ef- forts and determination of Hed- berg, Burnam, Henry, Landa and Adams. The Lady netters ended their spring season with a 19-3 re cord and a percentage of .864, and once again, there may be some uncertainty, but there is pride and determination in each of the Lady Indians.

If one chooses to disagree with this statement try to re member the 1978 Women’s World Football Champions. Of course it is no wonder as to why one cannot recall who they were, because for years the media has given the ‘‘front page’’ to the achievements of Rodger Staubach and Pete Rose. The accomplishments of Nancy Lopez and Chris Everett Lloyd have been placed on the back pages next to the under- wear ads. But with the 1980s came the Olympiad, Mary Lou Redding and a new light shown on a shadowed subject, women in sports. The seven ladies featured on these pages represent the best in female competition at North- east. This group includes a world class skier, a basketball player who has made the pages of Sports Illustrated and sever- al all conference athletes. These attainments help to substantiate the quote ‘‘God created man, took one look at him and said ‘I can do better than that,’ and so He created woman.” The truth of the above state- ment can only be determined with time, but the fact remains that the attention the game mistress is receiving is long over due. These regards are not meant to place lady players above their male counterparts, but rather to share by his side rec- ognition well deserved. — Steve Huey 154 Feature Darren Fadgen is following in the wake of her father, a swim- mer who participated in the Pan American games in the 1950's. When asked what her inspi- ration is Fadgen said ‘‘It’s the competitive spirit my father in- stilled in me at a young age that keeps me trying to do my very best.” Evidently this ‘spirit’ has paid large dividends including records in the 400 free style re- lay team, the 200 and the 500 free style. How does Wilanne Stewart, not known for her fire-ball pitching, lead the team in stri- keouts? “Wilanne doesn’t really throw the ball that hard,’’ said Coach Rosemary Holloway, “but the key to her game is to out smart the batter.” It is evident that Stewart's “thinking woman's” approach to softball is extremely effec- tive. This game plan earned her a spot on the all conference first team, most valuable player award in the SLC tournament and the AIl-SLC player award.

So where does it come from, the ability to be one of the na- tions best? “The desire to do the best you can gives you the right mental attitude and this won't let you lose,’’ said Hill. This has proven to be the right philosophy because the name Kristi Hill and champion have become synonymous.

They compete in two divi- sions, flying and ground events. The flying division consists of power-on and power-off land- ings, navigation events and a message drop. The ground events division is composed of aircraft recogni- tion, scan tests, preflight safety and a simulator event. The regional competition was held in Waco, Texas in 1985. This region consists of schools in Mississippi, Louisi- ana, Arkansas, Texas, Oklaho- ma and New Mexico.

Flying time averages $30-$50 and hour and each stu- dent must pay his own ex- penses. Even though NLU sports only a small flying team, they compete against major univer- sities such as the University of North Dakota and University of Texas. “We have faculty that be- lieve in them,” stated Col. Wil- liam Hemphill, director of the NLU Tomahawks. ‘We have state-of-the-art equipment here and that enables us to have such a strong program.” — Kim Walker Toby Long demonstrates how to use one of the simulators in the aviation department. Outstanding Squad Aims For New Horizons Karate, a centuries-old art, is | a growing sport on the North- | east campus and around the country. As a new sport in the | Olympics, it is expected to |} mushroom in popularity in the coming years. Karate requires great con- centration, balance and disci- pline. It is also a strenuous sport that keeps you physically fit. “The ultimate aim of the art of karate lies not in victory or defeat, but in the perfection of character of its participant, ” says Gichin Funakoshi, a emi- nent figure worldwide in karate. The karate team competes in state and national competition zach year. This competition is described as imaginary fighting | which is judged on form. The NLU team is coached by 30b Allen, a local Monroe kara- e instructor, and their faculty idviser is Margrit Loomis. In the spring of 1985, the Northeast team competed in New Orleans in the All-South fournament. Francis Tang vlaced first in kata (forms) in the beginning division and Lon- dra Williams placed first in ku- mite (fighting) in the intermedi- ate division. Rose Shuff, captain of the 1985 team, placed first in the black belt division of kumite and co-captain, Dennis McPhearson, is the 1985 Texas Regional Champion. “We have alot of new out- standing students and over fif- ty percent of our team has competed nationally, so we are expecting great things this sea- son,” Shuff said. — Kim Walker “The ultimate aim of the art of karate lies not in victory or defeat, but in perfection of the character of its participants. ”’ Mike Meeks In kumite, balance and form are ex- tremely important.

Richard Lupo Sports 157 In Making Track History, Young Captures All-American Title A champion is defined by Webster’s as “‘one who wins.” According to that definition, Lauri Young qualifies for that title because she’s not your typical college girl. Yes, she goes to class and makes good grades. She prac- tices hard and strives to win. A senior at Northeast, Lauri Young is recognized as one of the nation’s leading heptath- letes — an event consisting of the high jump, long jump, 100- meter low hurdles, 800-meter run, 200-meter run, shot put and javelin. A national ranking of num- 158 Feature ber three by Track and Field News is indicative of her strong standing in this event. But track is not the only im- portant aspect of her college life. A 3.64 cumulative grade point average in radio- TV film shows that she’s not just an athlete. Academics are also im- portant. Young competes in several track events; the heptathlon and the high jump are her pref- erences. She has set school re- cords in high jump, long jump, javelin and heptathlon. For five years she has competed in the NCAA championships and in United Press “| study hard because | won’t be an athlete the rest of my life. I'm an athlete because | love the challenges.” 1984 placed in the top six in the heptathlon. Young returned from the NCAA Outdoor Championship in 1985 not only as an all- American, but also a double all- American. She became the sec- ond NLU track athlete to win a Division | championship and the first Northeast athlete to claim a double all-American standing. After the NCAA Champion- ship, Young competed and placed fourth in the USA Mo- bile National Heptathlon Cham- pionships in Indianapolis. She was also selected to compete in a USA Canada dual heptath meet. The NCAA has awarcd Young a $2000 scholarship post-graduate study at the ti- versity of her choice. Young is the first Northe} athlete in any sport to receivia post-graduate scholarship ¢ d she plans to use it here at Nil. Northeast women’s tré coach, Dennis Groll, sumnid up Lauri Young by stati, “Lauri’s a remarkable yot lady. She worked just as hid in the classroom as she didjn the field.

Oxford Natatori- um is one of many student ac- tivity-oriented buildings on the Northeast campus. In the natatorium complex, students have access to the Olympic-sized pool, lap lanes, a diving well, a sun deck and ca- noes for use on Bayou DeSiard. But these facilities are not limited to students alone. The faculty and staff at NLC also use the natatorium complex. Faculty members are alloted hours daily for lap swimming, one of the most popular activi- ties at the complex. Commonly referred to as the ‘nat’, the natatorium is used more in warm weather by facul- ty and students alike even though the pool is kept at a constant temperature of 82 F.

Traditionally, phar- macy majors endure an exten- sive five year curriculum. In addition to studying, how- ever, pharmacy majors may participte in the various organi- zations which were created to enhance the student’s learning process. “You can only study so much before you crack up,” said Darla Ledet, president of Student APHA. Despite a decrease in overall membership, organizations such as Louisiana Society of Hospital Pharmacy, LSHP, Kappa Epsilon, Student Ameri- can and Louisiana Pharmaceu- tical Association (Student APHA), Kappa Psi and Phi Del- ta Chi participated in various community service projects throughout the year. “Our aim is to develop a per- son's confidence, communica- tion skills and character while offering services to the public,” said Dr. Richard Knott, adviser for Phi Delta Chi. Phi Delta Chi sponsored a campus wide blood drive and helped collect for the March of Dimes. LSHP increased public awareness during Poison Pre- vention Week last March. The group provided literature to the public concerning common forms of poisonings. ‘‘We basi- cally instructed them on what to do if someone becomes poi- soned,” said Robert Devier, president of LSHP. In April, Student APHA con- ducted a hypertension screen- ing at the shopping malls. KE and PDC worked at Coo- ley Home, a home for retarded children. Although the groups are sep- arately affiliated, they often worked together on the service projects. All of the groups provided voluntary services at E.A. Con- way Hospital. They assisted the doctors and nurses in the pediatrics clinic.

OR SOS SSS Business : International Students Nineteen eighty-five was a break-through year for the de- velopment of fresh new ideas and objectives for the Interna- tional Students Organization. Under the leadership of James Robertson it is no won- der that members are on‘fire with a desire to be bigger and better than ever before. Robertson works with inter- national students on a one-to- one basis. He deals with any number of matters, from adapt- ing to the American environ- ment to little things like open- ing a checking account. Breaking the communication barrier between _ international students and Americans is a major goal. The council strives to create awareness for the pur- pose of friendly relations. “We want to become a prominent organization on campus,” said president Ah- mad Yamin Abdul Rahim, “working along with the ‘Big Four’’’ — meaning the Union Board, Interfraternity Council, Residence Hall Association and Student Government Associ- Sandel Library is the ideal peaceful study hideaway for Malasian student Chia Mia Joo.

That’s a big leap on our way to the top.”’ An International Award is given annually to the individual most beneficial to the Council. All active members are eligible to vote for the award recipient who must be an American. President Rahim is a ‘‘down- to-earth” leader, using expres- sions during the meetings like “check it out’’ and “‘let’s get going,’ to name a few. On the flip-side, his seriousness can also be seen — _ particularly during business sessions. “Robert's Rules of Order”’ is the foundation booklet of regu- lations for all meetings. They are not stiff conferences, but they are formal and exact. De- cisions are made, issues are passed and time is not wasted. “We are like everybody else, ’ commented Rahim. ‘‘We have to take the ACT, pay tu- ition and attend classes.

Actually, there are quite a few naturally born Indian stu- dents who attend class at the university. And, there is a_ particular newly-formed organization just to suit their needs: the Indian Students Organization. Although only in its first year, it is already on-the-move with numerous activities, busi- ness and executive meetings. One may have the idea that only natural Indian citizens at- tending Northeast may attend the meetings. “Not so,” says secretary Sangeeta Arora, “We are open to anyone who has interest in our organization. Some of our members are from other countries, including the United States.” Promoting comradery and emphasizing awareness of Indi- an culture are among the group’s main goals. Indian students seem to share many of the same expla- nations for their attending NLU. Most looked for a university in the South — at least below the Mason-Dixon Line — because of its temperate climate. Also, NLU provides quality education at a comparatively inexpensive level.

FUN - the first idea to come to the staff’s minds. The Chaca- houla had been serious and proud; now was the time to go crazy. PERFECTION - this one was harder to obtain. In the past the Chacahoula had received many awards and national recogni- tion. The staff did not want to stop there; they wanted to be even better. ACCURACY - an imperative factor. In twenty-five years re- membering the events of Spring Fever will be difficult, if not impossible, without a Cha- cahoula. a) 4 Don Durr The voice of experience speaks as Letha Benton (right) shares new layout ideas with Organizations editor, Kay Bonner. Taking a moment to check the facts, Tammy K. Rodgers, Copy Editor, turns to ask Paula Bourgeois a question about the academic copy. Organizations DEDICATION - after making the decisions, time had come to work. This meant plans, organi- zation and priorities if the dead- lines were to be met. DILIGENCE - the best de- scription of a staff member. In- terviews with teachers and stu- dents, writing and rewriting copy, ordering pictures, and the drawing of practice and fi- nal layouts were various jobs required to produce the Chaca- houla. With all of these jobs at hand, little time was left for school or play. EXCITEMENT - this was an obvious feeling found in every staff member. After the grind of working long hours to meet the deadlines with little sleep (what’s sleep?), the staff ob- - served with anticipation the students’ reactions.

Whether it is a group of friends talking or someone with food on his face, the photographers are ready. They will stop at nothing (or almost nothing) to get the perfect shot. Being a photographer for Northeast can be fun, but it does involve work. In order to become a photographer, a per- son must have a well-balanced background in photography along with a working knowl- edge of cameras. They must also have their own accessories such as flashes, special lenses and of course they must own a cam- era. Also, a sample of his work must be submitted for inspec- tion. Many responsibilities are in- volved in the photography job. Several times a day the photog- raphers must check their schedule at the Chacahoula of- fice and be ready for any unex- pected shoot. Often, they may have to rearrange their sched- ule to obtai n a particular pic- ture for a publication's mem- ber. Many times a picture must be retaken because the desired effect was not obtained. Pho- tographers must also acquire facts such as names, dates, Photographers roam, Wale time and location of the event. This information is given to publication members. Including the regular work day, the photographers must also sacrifice one night per week and one weekend per month to shoot pictures for publications. Numerous benefits stem from being a_ photographer. The photographers get to meet many different people, while seeking interesting and _ infor- mative pictures. Gaining recognition from their work in the Pow Wow and Chacahoula is another benefit they receive. Possibly the best benefit of being a photographer is the sat- isfaction of looking at their pic- tures and knowing that the job was well done. Northeast photographers are hard-working, conscientious and proud. With zeal they at- tack the never-ending quest of preserving the look of the cam- pus and campus life. Being the “eyes of the cam- pus,” the photographers must always be prepared - whether people are at their best or worst!

They communicate _ effec- tively with the internal public- the students and employees of the University, as well as the outside community by keeping them up to date with NLU. “Everything we do promotes the image of the University,” said Bob Carroll, director of In- formation Services. “If people know about us and understand us, they will support the University,’ he said. Information Services informs the public through prepared re- leases for the daily and weekly newspapers and radio and tele- vision stations in the Arkansas, Mississippi and Louisiana area. News Services is responsible for gathering, writing and dis- pensing news and features about almost every aspect of the University. In addition, news _ services prepares articles concerning the various individual achieve- ments of NLU students. These hometown releases are sent to the specified city newspapers to acknowledge outstanding students and their achieve- ments. The Publications branch co- ordinates the university related brochures, alumni and employ- ee newsletters and the student newspaper and yearbook. These help to keep students, faculty, staff and administra- tors informed about up-coming events on the campus, as well as the progress of the Universi- ty. Sports Information prepares news and features pertaining to each part of the NLU athletic 186 Organizations program. Photographic Services en- hances the school’s image by furnishing photo support for every department on campus. They supplement the divisions written communication with pictures. Despite these channels which the division utilizes rou- tinely word-of-mouth and per- sonal contact are the most ef- fective ways of promoting NLU. By making sure that people are well-informed about NL, Carroll hopes to make ‘‘good will ambassadors”’ of them. ‘When the employees are in- “Everything we do pro- motes the image of the university.

Similarly, the alumni news- letter helps people keep in touch with the University so they can know the changes and improvements that have oc- curred. Carroll feels that if the public realizes the good reputation of the University, they will sup- port us through scholarship funds, donations and recruit- ment. “We have to bombard people with messages in trying to get across our view point,” Carroll said. “Our job is to influence the public,’’ he said ‘“‘and we don't give up.” — Cynthia Malsh Information Services motes.

Originated in 1977, PREP’s purpose is to orientate fresh- men, commuters, and transfer students to the NLU atmo- sphere. Because of its success, the program became a contin: ued tradition. When asked what they thought of PREP many fresh- men said they felt much more confident and prepared for ‘‘the college experience.’ But a large number also said that, be- sides the fun times, the serious times were also very helpful.

We got to know each other before we began and set goals for the school year.” In the fall semester, pro- grams developed by the SGA took into consideration almost every aspect of the students’ careers at NLU.

Here they find moral support; they have the chance to socialize and enjoy good fellowship.”’ Rather than ‘lectures and speeches as part of the pro- gram for organizational meet- ings, the members prefer open discussions with active partici- pation from all those present.

During monthly meeting ses- sions, various topics are dis- cussed on a realistic, down-to- earth basis. Members of the Student Organization for the Handicapped, as well as Wendt, feel this is a positive step to- ward drawing conclusions and reaching goals.

As a result, she has to register for as many classes as possible on the first floor of departmental buildings. ‘‘This is one type of problem we work to solve,” McFarland said. ‘‘The group is very cooperative.” Another member, Kenny Treece, works on campus at the climatic research depart- ment making weather forecast recordings. When asked if he had any particular problems on campus, Treece humorously replied, “The only thing I’m having troubles with is math.” “I think this organization is great,’ responded McFarland when asked about her opinion of the Student Organization for the Handicapped. ‘Together we can make a difference.” — Denise Dyer Committee member Deborah McFar- land represents the Student Organiza- tion for the Handicapped at campus: wide Student Advisory meetings. ere nee LS esses iiiiteScstsSSSSRS 194 Organizations “‘Here they find moral support; they have the chance to socialize and enjoy good fellowship.”’ — Karl Wendt Meetings don't have to be all busine.

Those who are ‘active ‘are usually all members. They dedicate an average of four hours per week, more if a major event is happening, to make the fulfillment of their purpose possible. While the executives do re- ceive a small salary, all the committee members and chair- man work on a voluntary basis. The board is limited to 50 members who have to maintain a 2.0 GPA. However, any oth- ers may join as associate mem- bers. They may attend events and participate in every way except voting. For students looking for an organization that is completely involved with student life, yet still offers a variety of ways to be active, the Union Board is an excellent opportunity.

The BSC offered many ways for people to become acquaint- ed with one another. Soon after the beginning of the fall semes- ter, the students went on a re- treat which involved games, sing-a-longs and a cookout. The students also went to conven- tions where they met other BSd students from throughout the state. One of the highlights of the year was the rivalrous NLd- Tech football game. The Tech BSd hosted the NLU BSd for games and food before the foot- ball game. Two flag-football games, one men’s and one women’s, were played, and then food was served. Other fun activities included a rock-atthon which helped raise money for a_ worthy cause, fellowships after many home games, hay rides and a very active intramural pro- gram. As coleaders of an individual Bible study group, Robert Pace and Melissa Parker serve as guides in the weekly group discussion. 198 Organizations he BSU ets Needs Although having fun was ex- tremely important, spiritual growth was nurtured. Vespers, which were held Monday and Thursday nights at 6:00, was a group Bible study. Different topics relevant to today were discussed. Also, on Wednesdays lunch was served at 11:00 and 12:00. Since no services were offered on Sun- ' days and members of the BS were encouraged to become ac- tive in a local church. The International program at the BSU helped American and International students to meet each other. This was also a way to exchange cultural ideas. Under the guidance of Char- lie Harvey; director, and Jerry Nash; associate director, the BSU was well organized. It was also supported by local Baptist churches and the state BSU chapter. The BSU was open to all de- nominations, thus servicing a wide range of people and opin- ions. Initiated to get people from campus involved in fun activities and spiritual growth, it offered encouragement and support to a variety of stu- dents.

Jim Wilson, explain- ing the goal of the Wesley Foundation. Believing that morals come from the society and love for your neighbors comes from the church, Wesley’s main object is to be theistic instead of mor- alistic. Thus, Foundation re- mains open to everyone. The United Methodist Church founded the Wesley Foundation in 1908 to help fill the gap of ethical and moral issues and values in_ state schools. Approximately by 1948, the Foundation came to NLU and then settled in their present location in 1963. “The Wesley Foundation is in existence to assist the whole of NLU, to understand the total truth and celebrate the pre sences of God in all arenas of life.” said Rev. Wilson. “We have an obligation here to pre- sent viewpoints other than the traditional.” Beyond the traditional Sun- day morning church service, a wide range of programs vary- ing from world politics to mov- ies is offered. As in previous years, a song: Movie night on Fridays provides the opportunity for students to see “‘Com- ing Home’”’, a film about a crippled Viet- nam veterans in a V.A. hospital. 200 Organizations They search for e Truth fest devotional service is held Sunday evenings and the Fri- day freebie movies offer a non- academic release for students. The Wednesday luncheons with faculty speakers, who talk as if they knew it would be their “last lecture,’’ continued in its second semester. The lun- cheons with an unassigned top- ic have taken place for more than twenty-five years though. Starting on a trial-basis in Oc- tober, weekly discussions for skeptical religious views, world politics and ‘‘what does it mean to be a man woman in the 80s” were lead by Rev. Wilson and NLU professors. Interna- tional students also shared their cultural similarities and differences. Through the year, the Wes- ley Foundation kept an open invitation offered to all of the NLC community for the wide span of events, activities and discussions which simply pro- vide a relaxing evening or help in the exploration of truth. Rev. Wilson put everything in a nutshell. “It doesn’t matter what’s going on, we think it is a religious experience.” — Elizabeth Gustwick Speaking as though it is his “Last Lecture , Byrl Moreland explains his point-of-view at a Wednesday lungheee.

Local clubs, such as the one at Northeast, are known as ‘“‘huddle groups.” Organizational meetings average about twenty-five par- ticipants weekly, and twenty of those are national members. Of course national membership is not mandatory, but it does oc- casionally provide a few bene- fits — plus extra opportunities available only on the larger na- tional scale. Membership in the FCA is not solely for athletes at NLU, but for all athletic participants including coaches and trainers of any sport offered on cam- pus. An inspirational retreat is available in the spring at Caney Lake for all male club mem- bers.

It may be hard to imagine quarterbacks, point guards or centerfielders from rival univer- sities in the same cabin without any violence occurring; howev- er, that is the primary goal of such a retreat . . . to show the love and care for brothers in Christ just as Jesus left the per- fect example for us to follow. Bible studies, motivational films, guest speakers, and sing- ing from various groups form the principal portion of meeting programs. “It means a lot to me — it’s just hard to put it all into words,’’ said Peter Jetzel, FCA president, when asked how the organization personally in- spires him. “But the most im- portant part is that | can meet other Christian athletes on campus. We can share our struggles as well as our suc cesses in our daily walk with Jesus Christ.

Liberal Arts programs pro- vide the opportunity for stu- dents to participate in courses dealing with creative self-ex- pression as related to the mod- ern career world. Bachelor's de- grees are offered in seventeen different majors ranging from art to criminal justice to techni- cal communication. Dr. Frank Morgan, dean of the College of Liberal Arts, commented that he is “‘very pleased” with all of his depart- ments. Dean Morgan added, ‘‘l believe we have an excellent Liberal Arts program here at Northeast. It is definitely grow- ing each year as we work to expand and improve the cur- riculum through modernization of instructional material and concepts.”’ Both the English and Foreign Language Departments have a unique exchange program with the University of Avignon in France. Richard Lupo Making your point erally Tuition, room and board are provided for participating stu- dents while they experience education amidst the French environment. Particular days are also set aside solely for the purpose of touring and sight- seeing. NLU is one of only thirteen universities in the United States to offer degrees in tech- nical communication. Stu- densts in this major are pro- vided the opportunity to do free-lance work with area Mon- roe companies for co-educa- tional experience. The term “‘general studies’’ has a familiar ring for many students. Those uncertain about a choice of majors may enroll under this category be- fore making a final curriculum choice. “Career opportunities are tre- mendous in this field,’ noted Dean Morgan. Graduates from the College of Liberal Arts searching for a job often times find that the appropriate job is searching for them. -— Denise Dyer eee Working behind the scenes, George Sharp controls lighting for the perfor- mances at Louisiana College Theatre Festival week. Liberal Arts Whether a student is inter- ested in learning more about another language or just de sires to major in a specialized langua ge category for a career goal, there are numerous courses to meet the need in the Department of Foreign Lan- guages. Bachelor of Science degrees are offered in French and Span- ish, which are especially useful in Louisiana as well as for world-wide communication. In addition, several other lan- guages ranging from Arabic to Italian are available. A fantastic break-through for the Foreign Language Depart- ment arose in the fall of 1984. A contract was signed between President Guy Cheynol of the University of Avignon in Avignon is the point of interest in one of Professor Fouchereaux’s French les- sons. The University of Avignon is NLU's “twin” institution. 204 Organizations It’s all in the way you say rlez-vous francais? France and our own President Dwight Vines that ‘‘twined’’ the two institutions. This agreement, which be- gan in January, 1985, was formed primarily to encourage effective French-American stu- dent exchange. Students have the opportunity to be educated amidst the French cultural at- mosphere amidst the French cultural atmosphere and natu- ral surroundings, with little ex- tra individual cost since they are involved in a cooperative education program. “In fact,’ said Dr. Carlos Fandal, professor and head of the Department of Foreign Lan- guages, ‘‘tuition, room and board are paid by the French. The exchange program is ex- cellent since there is no better way to international under- standing than to study lan- guages, because they (lan- guages) carry with them the culture’s reality.” Phi Tau Gamma, the foreign language club, is ‘‘for and run by the students,’ said Fabrice Teulon, sponsor of the club. ‘“‘It is very good for students to get together who study the same topics and it is especially good for foreign students.” Each semester the club pre- sents — free of admission charge — two or three different foreign movies in their actual native dialect. They have devel- oped quite an extensive video library of foreign movies, which is an excellent compliment to the standard audio-visual lab slides. French professor Dr. Jeai Fouchereaux is eager to dis cuss any topic related to th University of Avignon or shar personally about his own expe! iences there. He remarked that the trip t France is more than just educé tional for exchange students “They are entertained by thi French with special tours am welcoming parties. All thei subjects are taught in the morr) | ing so evenings and weekend | are free for all sorts of adver tures and sight-seeing.

Skillfully, the cadet lowers himself down the 40 foot drop to the ground. Repelling is only one of the skills Bayou Raiders learn. Land navigation, patrol, tac- tics, survival and water training are also covered during the Thursday meetings and a few weekends each semester. Taking advantage of the land around Brown Stadium, Russel Sage Wildlife Management Area and sometimes Camp T. L. James, the Raiders use prac- tical application to learn these various military skills. Demonstration labs were held to give other military sci- ence students a chance to see and try the skills first-hand. A water lab was sponsored during the fall in the bayou be- hind Hudson Hall. Use of ca- noes and rubber boats, rope bridges and floatation devises were demonstrated. In the spring, a survival lab was held behind the repeling tower. How to build shelters, fires, traps, snares, and how to clean and cook different small animals was shown. During Spring Break, a spe cial excursion was made to Ar- kansas to be able to practice patroling, tactics, repelling, navigation and survival in a new terrain. According to Curt Parish, commander, belonging to the Raiders prepares military sci- ence students better for ad- vanced camp and_ teaches them leadership. “It gives you more confidence in your abili- ties because you are always challenged and tested.” Checking her progress as she goes, Maureen Mullins repels down the ROTC tower.

The Bayou Raiders have de- veloped into a close-knit group. “Someone may feel like seeing a movie and pretty soon there is a whole group of us togeth- er.’ mentioned Billy Mathews, a junior team leader.

For the color guard, which includes drum majors, flags, ri- fles and twirlers, fundamentals (basics) had to be perfected and a routine had to be performed for inspection. Hard work and many hours went into audi- tions. But for the good and for- tunate, it did not stop there.

Rehearsals began one week before school. These lasted from 8:00 a.m. until 8:00 p.m. with a one hour lunch break. Then, regular rehearsals began. They were held everyday from 3:30 until 5:00. Monday, Wednesday and Fri- day were outside rehearsals. On Tuesday and Thursday re- hearsal for instruments was in- Mike Meeks side and color guard was out- side. Also, the Saturday of ev- ery home game was sacrificed to polish the show and receive uniforms. To keep up this regimented schedule, motivation was nec- essary, and easily obtained. Each band member received a scholarship which covered tu- ition costs, but the enticements did not stop there. ‘‘The satis- faction at the end of a perfor- mance; knowing we did a good job - it makes it all worthwhile,” replied Brad Westbrook. To most band members, one of the best aspects was the friends they were able to make. After having to go through grueling practices and perfor- mances for four months, every- one seemed closer. They knew they could depend on each oth- er. It took a special kind of per- son to be a member of the Sound of Today. Brad Farmer said, “You have to have band in your blood.

Some women do | choose to work in the home, | but many find that either they | cannot due to financial reasons ‘or that they want a professional | career outside the home. | Professions in the field of | Home Economics include fash- jion merchandising, interior de- | sign, dietetics, nutrition and ishome economics education. | Furthermore, student in- ivolvement in these areas of | study may be enhanced by join- ing two related organizations, _Kappa Omicron Phi and the 'Home Economics Association. Kappa Omicron Phi is an -honor society for students ma- joring in an area of home eco- nomics. The requirements are ‘that one must be a second se- lhneceer sophomore and hold a |cumulative grade point aver- age of 3.0. An outgoing person- ality, willingness to help and ca- reer-mindedness are also fac- tors which determine selection into this sorority. To help students get a better view of various careers, Kappa Omicron Phi, along with the Home Economics Association, sponsors what they call “brown bag” lunches. These lunches are held every first Tuesday of the month in Filhiol Hall and feature guest speakers in various career fields. Also, the group holds various fund raisers to help the CrossNore School, Inc. of North Carolina for special chil- dren as their national service project. The highlight of their activi- ties is the annual Kappa Omi- cron Phi State Convention, which this year, was held at Ni- cholls State University. The main purpose of the conven- tion is to gather ideas for fund raisers and service projects that could be beneficial to the society and the community. This year’s officers include, President, Inge Spaulding; Vice President, Sherry Kelly; Trea- surer, Debbie Hatfield and Sec- retary, Angela Deville. Serving as faculty advisers to the group are Dr. Rene Jackson and Ms. June Conway. Hand in hand with Kappa Omicron Phi is the National Home Economics Association. While the two groups are simi- lar in purpose, the require- ments for membership are not the same. The Home Econom- ics Association is open to any student, regardless of their ma- jor, classification and grade point average. However, the organization does ask that its members be enrolled in at least one of the various home economic courses. While the group strives to promote the home economic program and other worthwhile programs at North- east, it also emphasizes com- munity service. For example, the association participates in the Monroe Jay- Cees program, ‘‘Toys for Tots,’’ the NLU Christmas Fes- tival and also in the Crippled d the way to Success Childrens’ Home program | | bringing refreshments to the! , one Tuesday a month. .

Pure And Applied 225 General consensus has _ it that Aviation 101 is the course for freshmen to take as an elec- tive. Although learning the funda- mentals of flight may seem to be a crip course for some, it is the basic class of many avi- ation classes taken by the avi- ation majors. Northeast Louisiana Univer- sity offers three aviation cur- riculums that give students a range of flying careers to choose from. Students majoring in avi- ation find that the department is constantly changing and ex- panding. According to Colonel Wil- liam T. Hemphill, head of the Department of Aviation, “The most important thing about the department is the student body structure.”’ Although enrollment has stayed constant, the major that students are finding more pop- ular has shifted. “A few years ago about fifty percent of the aviation stu- dents were flight attendant ma- jors. But in the past couple of years, there are more air flight officer, air science and_ air transportation majors,’ said | 226 Organizations Hemphill. “The department was built with limited equipment, a lot of dedication and enthusiasm,” said Hemphill. Recently the de- partment equipment problem has become less of a problem with the installment of some high-tech flight simulators. The two simulators have col- or graphics and operate from four computer disk drives. They depict realistic terrain, lighting, flight problems and turbulance. Students are able to operate these simulators after being trained to program them. “‘The simulators give the pilot a chance to safely practice cer- tain procedures without leaving the ground or paying the cost of renting an airplane,’ said Randy Ogles, an air transporta- tion senior. While class may be one part of the aviation program, there is yet another side. There are two professional aviation frater- nities that provide added activi- ties for aviation students at Northeast. Alpha Eta Rho and Alpha Sigma Chi share an avid inter- est in the aviation field. These professional organizations have Eric Hanson In an animated conversa tion, Colonel William Hemphill, head of the aviation department, discusses the possibilities available to aviation majors. Aviation students always M1 High! worked with the aviation de- partment to sponsor many community-oriented functions. On Oct. 4 and 5, Alpha Eta Rho helped coordinate an air- show with the Monroe chapter of the YMCA. The students were in charge of ground safety at the airport and lining up the airplanes for the show. Alpha Sigma Chi sponsored a ‘“‘wet sponge in the face” throw at the Pecanland Mall March of Dimes Hallow- een Scare Affair. Graduating aviation seniors have many opportunities for advancement in the field of avi- ation. Because Northeast is one of the top four universities in the nation in producing quali- fied pilots, graduates are able to gain placement with many commercial airlines. Hemphill said, ‘‘Size is not important, quality is.’’ Al- though aviation may not be one of the largest curriculum enroll- ments at Northeast, they are certainly a strong asset. — Tammy Kaye Rodgers While gaining practical experience in e simulator, Toby Long is also saving n ey.

PHOS OO eee Performing Arts 233 Culture, Class and Style - these are the ingredients that the orchestra at Northeast add to the campus and the commu- nity. With dedication to excel- lence, the members strive with every performance toward per- fection. In the fall, the orchestra pro- duced two operas, Amahl and the Night Visitors and Mozart's Impressario. For two nights these expressive operas were played to an almost full house. The two. spring perfor- mances included the Spring Concert and the President’s Concert which is presented to President Vines and his wife ev- ery year. The thrill of perfor- mance began with the operas, but the anxiety of competition began much earlier. Auditions, which can instill fear in even the best perform- ers, began last spring. To be accepted one must be able to play their instrument well and have the perseverance to with- stand the rigid practice routine. 234 Organizations Orchestra AS. Style The rehearsals, beginning in the early fall and continuing in the spring, were conducted ev- ery day with extra night re- hearsals near a performance. Jerry Vance, the new orches- tra director, commented on the cooperation of the students. “They all work very hard at their music. They look at per- forming in a very professional manner.”’ Many students’ professional- ism may be observed by their dedication. Most members re- ceived credits for the class, but several played with the orches- tra without obtaining credit or compensation. The orchestra contributed a unique facet to life at North- east. They brought a touch of style that was very important. As Vance said, “Il am proud to be the director of such a won- derful group. These students are interested in their music and want to share it with every- one.”’ — M. Kay Bonner Playing with intensity, Russell Mangum concentrates on his music and the con- ductor.

Or jc geron..ta gym flo , £ | So you really did come to college to learn something other than how to wash your clothes and how to cross a street without get- ting smashed against the sidewalk, did you now? Of course, academics is the one area that should take top priority in a student’s day. After all, when your professor tells you at the beginning of each semester, “I never miss a ‘day and I assume you won’t either because you paid your good money and you expect to learn something in this class ...” you know without a doubt some people are serious about what they do. Northeast is abundant with knowledge and fascinating lives, and that doesn’t just mean your roommate. Professors are real people, too, and many of them have led outstanding lives, written books, travelled the globe and more. Working with your teachers instead of against them can be a rewarding experience. They know how a student feels and can and _will help out in a pinch. As we delve into our section on academic life at Northeast, keep an open mind about those persons you paid good money to listen to three times a week. You just might learn something besides what’s in the textbook. 238 Teachers EACHERS Still Abound at NCH Smith Possesses Many Talents One can only imagine the creativity of a person who can take a class of self-contained seventh and eighth grade ‘‘slow learners’’ and fulfill them with confidence enough to perform on stage. Evolving from a need to do something theraputic, Bessie G. Smith wrote an adaptation of the play “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.” Smith’s “Snow Black and the Nine Dwarfs” was basically the traditional story except Sleepy, Happy and Sneezy were converted to Mean Gene, Pretty Boy Floyd and Fatty. The comedy became an un- expected delight for which Smith was encouraged to have the work published. This wouldn't be her first publica tion. “Makeup for the Dark Complexioned Actor’’ was authored by Smith and co-auth- ored by George C. Brian. “IT never took make-up classes, but instead had on-the- job training by George Brian, who influenced me greatly,” she commented. In addition to these writings by Smith is co-owner of L L Contractors and Builders, Inc. and has played a major part in a movie. She also has a bachelor de- gree in Home Economics, a masters in Speech Education, and is presently certified in su- pervision and administration. Having had opera for seven years, Smith acted as vocal di- rector in a record cut of “The Voices of Salvation,” a gospel group. “It’s difficult to teach and sing because of the strain on your vocal cords, so | am not actively singing now,’ she stat- ed. As wife and mother of two, her future looks to be bright with the possible publication of another make-up book focused on men. Emphasizing the importance of a man’s make-up as com- pared to a woman’s, Smith commented, “Men age quicker and they are just as vain if not more so than women. | know my husband js.”’ — Stephanie Duke Richard Lupo Oliver Returns To Teach at Alma Mater A lady with great dedication, Mona A. Oliver, has served asa English teacher for seventeen years. She and her husband, Jesse Oliver have a five year old son, Kevin Michael. Oliver teaches English 90, 101, 102 and _ occasionally teaches American Literature 205 and 206. She is the only teacher for World Literature 203 and 204, which she considers her favor- ite class. A former student of North- east Louisiana State College, she now serves as a teacher at her alma mater. She finds it really interesting to see all the changes North- east has made over the years. Oliver believes that the Eng- lish department, along with many other departments, is un- derstaffed, but, that the faculty members do come from a vari- ety of backgrounds with many different ideas. One idea that is getting more input within the department is the emphasis placed on cre- ative writing. She said, ‘‘Eng- lish courses with creative writ- ing are very vital no matter what major or field one is in.” Oliver has a high opinion of Northeast students, but she thinks that all in all, college stu- dents are basically the same. She also believes that the de- partmental exam, which is a standardized test that has to be passed by all Englih 101 stu- dents, is important. Even though it is good for — the students, Oliver feels it should not count as the stu- dents’ whole grade. Oliver has experienced both roles at Northeast ... first, asa student and now as a teacher. She has watched Northeast grow from a small computer college to the strong university it is now. With more teachers like Mona Oliver, NLC cannot help but get even better. — Kelly Givens f Letson Believes Students Are Important Do you ever wonder while _ sitting in class who is more im- portant -the teacher or the stu- dent? Dr. Billy Letson believes stu- dents are truly important. ‘'l _ think students are smarter than _ teachers. It is an accomplish- ment to stand before them and _ teach,” replied Letson. Dr. Letson chose to teach at ' NLC because he liked North | Louisiana. “A friend of mine gave favorable reports of NLU and of Monroe, so here | am,” said Letson when asked why he came to Louisiana from Ala- _ bama. Albertson helps Elise LaHie writing exercise in the journalisin COM puter ab. Being a person who loves people, he likes teaching small classes. He is very enthusiastic and his door is always open to students. “He cares about his students and really wants them to learn,’ replied Jamie Landes, a former student. A teacher at NLU for 20 years, Dr. Letson plans on be- ing around for another 20 years. ‘| want to teach the stu- dents as much as | can so they can look back and realize they did learn something from my class,’ said Letson. — Paula Bourgeois Richard Lupo Ortance of Albertson Brings Experience To NLC Journalism Department From grocery boy to editor, could be one way to describe the career of Mike Albertson. Albertson, an instructor of journalism at NLC, worked as a personnel specialist in the Navy then crossed over to jour- nalism. Honorably discharged after almost seven years of service, Albertson pursued a career in journalism. With an AA degree from Pen- sacola Junior College and a BA in communication from the University of West Florida, he worked for newspapers in Wil- mington, N.C., Panama City, Fla., Pensacola, Fla., and also here in Monroe. His newsroom jobs varied from sportswriter to investiga: tive reporter. Several editingmanagement jobs that Albertson served in include assistant managing edi- tor, wire editor and city editor. Working as a full time jour- nalism instructor for Northeast, Albertson commented on the relationship between a news- room job and teaching. “A lot of my job as city edi- tor was teaching, but instead of new students they were already qualified and had accustomed themselves with bad _ habits that I had to help them break. As a teacher, | get to start the bad habits.” During his journalism career, Albertson has achieved numer- ous awards, some of which are from the Louisiana Sports Writ- ers’ Association, Florida Out- door Writers’ Association, and a Governor's letter of commen- dation for environmental writ- ing. Outside of the classroom, Albertson enjoys working with computers. He uses this hobby to write tests and other manu- scripts. Albertson is also a husband and father of two. — Stephanie Duke Academics 239 A career in social work has sometimes been described as a “profession of many faces.” Child abuse, juvenile delinquen- _cy, family conflicts, emotional _ disturbances, medical prob- lems, housing difficulties and problems of the aged are just some of the many problems that a social worker has to deal 1. with on a daily basis. “The social work program at NLU is engaged in preparing students, upon graduation, to seek employment in_ social | agencies and to deal with these 1 types of problems,” said Eris J. Ginn, director of the Northeast Louisiana University social work program. “‘It also aims to equip students for study in gra- _ duate social work programs.” Ginn said that a social work- er is “one who is committed to working with individuals, groups and communities and, in turn, helping them to use the resources within themselves and the environment to cope more effectively with human problems.” “A career in social work of- Mr. Mack | Abraham : Mr. Keith W.

The degree requires a total of 42 semester hours in the major subject, including 16 courses of social work content and a prac- ticum. - - _ The NLU social work pro- gram is accredited by the Coun- cil on Social Work Education, the national accrediting agency for undergraduate and gra duate social work programs, said Ginn. ‘Accreditation for our pro- gram is very important for the student,’ Ginn explained. “A bachelor degree in social work is often required for an entry level position.”’ “Also, an accredited pro- gram better prepares a student for graduate studies and gra- duate schools prefer to recruit students from accredited pro- grams,” he added. Ginn stated that. for an indi-| vidual considering a career in social work, there are a variety of job opportunities available. “Jobs are available in public or private social agencies, such as mental health clinics, hospitals, | family service agencies and_ | correctional i nstitutions.” | In order to find a fulfilling ca: |” reer in social work, Ginn said | that is necessary for a person to be able to relate to people | from a variety of cultures and backgrounds. _ on “Social workers who routine: ly provide human services to individuals sometimes have to | deal with other problems that their clients have such as the | effects of poverty,’ he ex- plained. ‘They have to be pre: | pared.” — : _ Ginn said that the NLU social | work program provides the | training and education for i students that enables them ‘go into an agency and deal | with people and their problems | whatever the situation.” ss | 4. ‘Debbie Broughton | — experience, Patty Hill works with clients as part of her field work in the social work program.

The program was approved in May by the Louisiana Board of Regents. ‘‘As part of the board’s charge, an institution has a responsibility to provide programs for citizens when the need arises and this program meets that charge,” said Dr. Smith. He said that there are only two other similar programs in the state. The program is also offered at Delgado Community College in New Orleans and at Louisiana State University in Eunice. “The area fire chiefs felt a Dr. William Arceaneaux Robert J. Bodet Marie Carter Richard D’Aquin J. K. Haynes program that would provide college training for its fire fight- ers, would upgrade their per- sonnel and their overall fire fighting programs,’’ said Dr. Smith. “Also, some of the area fire departments are providing a program of incentive pay for those fire fighters who obtain college credit,’’ he added. The NLC program will pro- vide fire fighters with a basic education in fire fighting. Courses of study will include fire protection hydraulics, ar- son investigation, fire protec- tion systems and equipment and insurance grading sched- ules among others. “Coursework will include an indepth study of the chemistry of fires and the science of fluid flow through hoses and noz- zles,’’ explained Dr. Smith. “The courses will also provide a study of fire fighting tactics and the handling of emergency situations.” Fire fighting experts will be brought in to teach some of the courses at NLU. ‘‘We will cover the whole gamut of areas of in- terest and importance to fire — fighters,’’ he said. “In addition, the Monroe Fire | |, Department has offered the use | of its facilities and equipment for out-of-class training,’ he p , stated. Dr. Smith indicated that in addition to fire fighters, the de- gree will also be helpful to per- sons in other fields. “People in the field of insur- ance, building inspection and fire investigation, fire equip- ment sales and fire safety will also find this two-year degree helpful,” he said. Interest in the program has already been expressed. ‘“‘We have had quite a few inquiries from people interested in the fire fighting profession and from those who are already fire fighters who would like to pur- sue the degree,” said Dr. Smith. -— Debbie Broughton seeing i! aC fa ns ep ARAN Er oa Joel Willer, an instructor in radio, te: vision and film, observes Delores Joht son while she works on the new TR microcomputer in the journalism lab. __ Richard Lupo Students in journalism and editing classes are adjusting to a more modern dimension of technology, according to Dr. William Rambin, head of the Department of Communication Arts. Rambin said the department has purchased a total of 25 TRS 80 Model No. 4 microcom- puters and one printer from Ra- dio Shack. The video display terminals cost approximately $1,000 each. _ Joel Willer, an instructor of radio, television and film, said, “My main concern is for the students. Use of the VDT’s al- lows them to get experience which is important in the news- paper world.” Albertson said he liked this particular model because it looks like what the students will use at newspapers and in television stations. “They're long overdue in helping students prepare for working in the future,’’ Albert- son added. “That's the kind of hardware and software they will use in their jobs.”’ Director of Information Ser- vices, Bob Carroll, said that the use of VDT’s has made editing faster and more efficient. Both Rambin and Carroll agree that the VDT computer systems are becoming the stan- dards in newspaper equipment throughout the world. NLC stu- dents are being trained and pre- pared for the job market of to- day and tomorrow with this modern use of technology. David Sutton, production major from Pittsburgh, said, ‘'l feel these computers are en- hancing to the journalist's abili- ty because it allows the stu- dents to develop their skills in a realistic setting. All newspa- pers use computers, and gradu- ates must be able to work with them.” “The VDT’'s are a definite plus for the department and a great help in my field. The more technology the better the department will be,” said Todd Chisnell, Rhode Island radio, tv and film junior, ‘We're learning about computers while learning about journalism.” Mark Oswald, a Shreveport broadcasting junior said, ‘‘Basi- cally, the VDT’s are a great convenience for students.

Much to the president's dismay, instead of Bob Anderson walking in, Kent Anderson, the president of American Bank came. ‘That was a hectic day.

That story is some- thing real that a Greek feels from within. Their faces are printed on the paper, but the bonds between each of the brothers and sisters is stronger than the paper itself. The photographs can only describe the glories of friendship, winning an intramural game or the hard work put into each fund raiser or Homecoming float. Each student that registers at NLU makes his own decision to go through rush and be- come a member of a special organization; and after that decision has been made, he will re- main side by side with fellow Greeks long after the diploma is hung on the wall. For the letters of a Greek are not only stitched into sweatshirts and initialed into hats and jewelry, but moreso are etched into the heart forever. Brothers And Sisters Unite In Friendship From Alpha To Omegaif From Fraternity Row to the community of Monroe, North- east Louisiana University greeks can be seen almost any- where sporting a greek jersey, offering a helping hand or may- be just an encouraging smile. They make up an important part of campus life at North- east. Rush begins the year for all greeks. Meeting prospective pledges and learning hundreds of names and faces, is a vital part of any fraternity or soror- ity. At the end of rush week, many rushees have pledged a greek organization and have formed lasting relationships with their new brothers or sis- ters. Becoming active in campus events is a vital part of the greek life. Greeks participate in homecoming by building floats, which has become a stiff but fun competition between them. They are always supporting the Indians by attending pep = = rallies and can be seen at any event from football to track. Greeks participate in the Christ- mas Festival, Spring Fever and even Intramurals. Wanting to help the commu- nity, each greek organization has a special philanthropy that they support. To raise money, greeks will have anything from a dance or a car wash to evena rock-a-thon. The fraternities and sorori- ties really enjoy getting togeth- er to help raise money for those less fortunate than themselves. These philanthropies range anywhere from the Crippled Children’s Home or the March of Dimes to the Kidney Founda- tion. Whatever the philanthropy or need, greeks are always ready to help in any possible way. Greeks are not just involved in their fraternity or sorority, but they make up a big part of all other campus organizations. Greeks can be found in student government, honor societies, on athletic teams, or as mem- bers of spirit and community service groups. They take an active part in these organiza- tions and many are not just members, but leaders. They strive for the best in all they do. But, of course, all work and makes life boring. | There are Fall Dances, Spring © Formals, socials and Intramu- ral events that make life a little no play, more exciting. Greek Week is held annually in the spring and allows the fra- ternities and sororities to get to- gether and enjoy the competi- tion.

The principles of Phi Beta Sigma are brotherhood, scholarship and service. As one of eight black Greek letter organizations, Phi Beta Sigma has a membership of more than 65,000 with chap- ters throughout the continental United States, Switzerland and Africa. Being both a social and a ser- vice organization, Phi Beta Sig- ma has many programs involv- ing education, social action and business. In order to better im- plement these and other pro- grams, the fraternity works with other organizations such as the National March of Dimes and the National Boy’s Club of America. From the moment of its offi- cial inception on Jan. 9, 1914, Phi Beta Sigma has sought to give something of value to the community. In a very real sense the motto of Phi Beta Sig- ma fraternity, ‘““Culture for ser- vice and service for humanity,” is a daily guidepost by which each member must measure himself. As vehicles through which positive change can be achieved, the members see themselves as trustees of skills, abilities, ideas and time. — Stephanie Duke Richard Antwine Rickey Carthon-President Richard Greene Michael Harrell Greg Huskey Cordale Hutchinson Chris Jarvis Christopher Jones Kenneth Page Henry Aaron Preston Daryl Savage Johnie Slaughter Ricky Upshaw Leppaine Washington Willie Washington Ruby Weber Michael Wilson Earl Johnson-Adviser Alpha To O Kappa Delta ....

Numerous amounts of “pink ladies”” were easily spotted at pep rallies, intramural sports competitions and various other school-related functions. Community support and love was felt by local abused children who were invited to a Christmas party sponsored by Phi Mu. The children were paid a surprise visit by Santa Claus and were given gifts of toys and clothes. Another charity backed by Phi Mu is Project HOPE (Health Opportunity for People Every- where). Each year a ‘‘Hike for Hope’’ is performed to raise money. Each member must maintain a 2.2 grade average per semes- ter. This is higher than any oth- er Northeast sorority grade re- quirements.

After having rush in the fall, the 68 members participat- ed in activities from Spring Fe- ver and socials to philanthropy, with their number one goal be- ing to affiliate with a national sorority. After writing letters to 22 na- tional sororities and after hear- ing presentations, Kappa Chi chose Sigma Kappa. According to Delinda Gal- braith, ‘“‘The sixty plus active members of Kappa Chi are now pledges of Sigma Kappa. The formal installation of the mem- bers will be in March.” Sigma Kappa. has participat- ed in many activities including homecoming, intramurals, so- cials, retreats and philanthrop- ic activities.

Kappa Epsilon Tau Kappa Epsilon Continued Their ' Tradition Of Excellenc: “Not for Wealth, Rank or Honor, but Personal Worth and Character,” is inscribed on the plaque on the well-weathered door to the house. The motto, written almost a century ago by the fraternity’s founders, remains one of the principle guidelines all mem- bers are to follow. Epsilon Mu chapter of Tau Kappa Epsilon was chartered May 19, 1956 making it the ol- dest fraternity on campus. Since the time of its beginning here, hundreds of men have en- joyed the satisfaction and per- sonal growth through TKE while earning a college degree. “It teaches its members how a business works and how to become leaders if they apply themselves,” said Scott Mc- Donald who is president of the fraternity. ““To most people, fraternities are just for party- ing, but it should present the opportunity to learn about busi- ness and leadership as well as brotherhood,”’ said McDonald. Members of the fraternity at- tended two major conferences during the year. TKE National Conclave which was helc! in Florida and TKE Regional Con- ference held in New Orleans where leadership and organiza- tional structure was_ studied and discussed. The members supported St. Jude’s Childrens Hospital dur- ing the year with one of Mon- roe’s last street drives on De- Siard St. The hospital, founded by TKE brother Danny Thom- as, will remain the fraternity’s main philanthropy. Man is a social being, and social events are as much a part of fraternity life as learning is to college life. Throughout the year, the fraternity hosted a variety of social mixers with so- rorities and annual parties. Rush parties were held in fall and spring offering food, bever- age and fun for rushee’s and new-comers to the fraternity way of life. Also, an opportuni- ty to analyze the cost, benefits and values of becoming a brother in the bond was grant- ed to the rushee’s. Annual parties that followed Rush were the Little Cuba Splash, the Toga, the Return of the 99th, Halloween Costume, Pre and post football and bas- ketball game, Miami Vice, Mar- di Gras, Crawfish Boil and Red Carnation Ball. Intramural sports particij|- tion was of major concern }) the fraternity as was compé- tion. Members of TKE enter major events of the progreén and along with the Little Siste}s they participated in many ¢- rec events. On the national level, TKE} the largest and number op ranked fraternity in total r} tional strength in the U.S. aill Canada; however, at NLU tlh fraternity has been small unl only recently. | Bill Anderson, pledge educ tor, said, ‘“TKE’s door has bet. opened to any compatible, ic: alistic, innovative young mé@ regardless of his material pc: sessions or position in society The chapter began to gro with a unique associate mer bership program not offered § any other fraternity. ‘We hay improved the quality of o1 membership,’ said McDonal, “This will enable us to build better chapter as we grow ar become not the biggest but t best that we can be.”’ . — Clyde Dearmé | in | !

School is more than classes and work. It is a time to build friendships that will last forever and to have as much fun as possible. This is what Sigma Nu strives for. A good balance between community work and social events was struck by Sigma Nu. They have raised money for charity and local philan- thropic projects. Sigma Nu began the highly successful campus improve- ment project-the Bayou Cleanup Day. Members cleaned the water from canoes and along the bank to make the bayou more attractive. Sigma Nu’s proudly display their new letters which will decorate the endzone of Malone Stadium with the letters of other Greek organizations on campus. Money was also raised for Cystic Fibrosis and the Special Olympics. The social aspect provided the brothers with as much fun as they could possibly want. Many theme parties included the Boxer, Beer and Popcorn Party and the most popular of all-The Zombie Night Massacre and Costume Ball Bash. Live music from Fragment 36 and bizarre costumes set the scene for one of the wildest nights of the year. But parties are not all there is to Sigma Nu. Kevin Evans, a founding member, said, “We stress individuality here. There seems to be enough stereo- types. Since we aren’t in high school anymore, we feel there is a real need for a mature f} ternity ... one based on bro} erhood and fun.” John Gaines, pledge m) shall, said, ““Sigma Nu stress responsibilities, principles ad people. Becoming a memltin) means having someone to tu, to and making friends for a li} 4 time.” l@ Sigma Nu held it’s charterilj ceremony in March whihl;” af ; ; brought a new, bright fratern| to NLU.

Here in Monroe, McKean can be found living in Town and Country apartments with a friend from high school. They have been roommates for the past four years and McKean says “it is working out pretty well.” This 23-year-old loves sports - baseball, tennis, and especial- ly golf - when he has time to enjoy them. When McKean first came to Northeast, he was very in- volved on campus. Some of the activities he participated in were Alpha Epsilon Delta, Phi Kappa Phi and the Mortar Board. He also served as Vice Chairman for the CGnion Board for two years. But now being a graduate student with many new respon- sibilities, he has no time for ex- tracurricular activities. As a graduate student in pharmacy, McKean does his graduate work in the pharma- McKean cology lab. He works for a pro- _fessor doing research work, ‘ carries out special assignments and does “‘what they want you ‘to do.” His principle responsi- : bility is to do different types of _ brain surgery on rats. McKean went through dental school for one year before switching to pharmacy. He had taken a pharmacy related class and liked it. In doing his gra- duate work in pharmacy, McKean feels that the teachers treat you well and make all the © difference. Getting his PhD is a sought after goal for McKean. When he graduates he wants to either teach or work in industry. As for now, he is leaning toward teaching. He still has about three more years left. McKean says he enjoys NLC and feels that it is a good place to go to school because of the atmosphere. Northeast for McKean is not too big and not too small. To him Northeast’s best attributes are its people. -— Michelle Carbo cal Richard Lupo === do-re-me Ables, Lena F. — West Monroe Ahmed, Feroze — Monroe Baum, Lawrence S.

When we were young our parents sat us down at the kitchen table and _ said, “Study!’’ Getting older caused us to change our study habits to ones that were more com- fortable to us. We moved away from the kitchen, to in front of the televi- sion or in our rooms with the stereo. Once we went to college things became very different. We were not at home where there was the peace and quiet that we needed. We live in dorm rooms and unless we are able to block out the noise, it is never quiet. This % means that we have to find places other than our rooms to study. The library is great, if you are there to socialize. But if you are not, you have to find some- place that is peaceful and sets you at ease. Even though some of the places may seem a little weird to others, many of the students on this campus have found their “study havens.”’ Sylvia Blank, a freshman, likes to lay out in her backyard while studying because she, “|...

They are able to pool their money to buy grocer- ies. They also enjoy riding home together. These sisters also feel that, ““As long as the bond is there, you feel more re- laxed living with a close rela- tive. You can sleep better at night knowing that your sister is across the room.” Also, what better way to meet members of the opposite sex than via a brother or sister? Michael Tharpe, a junior, and his sister Cherie, a freshman, are from Crowville, La. They both try to work around a busy schedule to spend time together. Because of her brother’s natural protec- tive instincts, Cherie feels that she has no problem with the people Michael introduces her to. According to Michael, Cherie is ‘fun to have tagging along, because | like her being here. She's really good company!” “He understand me,” is An- dros Kattides’s reason for rooming with his’ brother, George. The friendly atmo- sphere is why these brothers from Cypress, Greece chose NLU.

They explained, Gail “He “If you 330 Faces understands me.” -Andros Kattides study hard, and really try, no class should be too difficult to do well in.” Carl Green, a sophomore ma- joring in pre-veterinary medi- cine, lives with his sister, San- dra Lee.

He deserved it!”’ Of course, there can be some disadvantages to living with a brother or sister who is attend- ing the same college. For example, picture your- self and your date at the dorm or apartment when your sister walks in angry. She is angry because the place is a mess and you forgot that it was your day to play maid. So she turns to your date and obnoxiously says, ‘Il remember the time when he was eight years old Eloy) s55. Cecelia Harris explains that she sometimes feels a “‘loss for independence.”’ Understand- ably, this type of living arrange- ment can tend to invade one’s privacy. However, Cecelia ““wouldn’t want it any other way.” Whoever said that family members can’t live together and attend college at the same time forgot one very important thing. The old cliché stands true, “blood IS thicker than water.” Sandra Green offers this ad- vice, “You can have close friends, but you'll always have your family.

Also she is the secretary of Alpha Epsilon Del- ta, a pre-med honor society. Other organizations she finds time for include the Mortar Board and the 1985 Prep Staff. Canady loved serving on the staff. ‘It was fantastic! I really enjoyed it a lot,” she said. This 20-year-old native of Bastrop is the oldest of three children. In her spare time she enjoys singing, bike riding and reading. When she needs to re- lax, Canady likes to twirl her rifle or play her flute. One sport she would really love to learn is tennis.

At least that ap- pears to be the attitude of many students reacquainting themselves with the college life. There are several reasons why someone might take a break from college. One may feel the dreaded financial pinch or he may just not feel ready for school. Other reasons are more personal. For Patsy Ruth Hogan, a future husband awai t- ed her at Louisiana Tech. Hogan, an Elementary Edu- cation major, graduated from Neville in 1959. She attended NLU until 1961 and then trans- ferred to Tech and married Cor- dell Hogan.

None the less, she is deter- mined to do well and become a better teacher. Though their situations and reasons are different, students who leave and then return to college come back with full vig- or. They know what they want and where they are going.

Whenever talking to this 6’8’’, 206 lb. man another word comes to mind - “EXCITING!” Saulsberry was born on May 13, 1964, and is from Milledge- ville, Georgia. He has one sis- ter, Janice. A heavily recruited athlete, Saulsberry came to NL to play basketball on a full schol- arship. He is a starter on the team and plays the position of forward. He feels NLU is more excit- ing in the spring because he is more active. When asked about the upcoming year and the Southland Conference, Sauls- berry only replied, “‘Our goal is to WINI”’ Since Saulsberry: is an ath- lete, he resides in Harris Hall 348 Sophomores qd for with other student athletes. He likes living in the dorm and says that “‘it’s like a big family. The whole team lives on the same floor.” Saulsberry thinks of NLC as a nice school. “‘It offers lots of freedom and activities which keeps every day exciting.’’ He also feels that NLU is good in the way that it ‘‘allows visita- tion. Most schools don’t.”’ When he is not practicing basketball or going to classes, Saulsberry likes to walk around and meet new people. He also enjoys spending time with his girlfriend Jennifer Smith. When Saulsberry graduates, he plans to do either one of two things. “If not playing pro with the Philadelphia 76’ers, I'll go back home and work as a pro- bation officer.” -—- Michelle Carbo Richard Lupo another long night Typing her dreaded term paper in the library is sophomore, Connie McArthur.

Some students have found the best solution possible - a job! And, not only is there mon- ey involved, but convenience as well. Most jobs can be found on campus. For example, Chuck Steven- son can be found in the weight room of Brown Gym hard at work. Stevenson is a junior major- ing in education and is a handy person to have around in the weight room. His main respon- sibility is to help spot people working with the free weights. He also shows students how to operate the equipment and checks ID’s of those who want to work out in the gym. When asked about Meee rites “it keeps me busy, but | one of the love it. It’s great! best jobs you could get around here.” If a student is not into weights, maybe a job answer- ing a telephone would be more in line. The campus operators are a crucial source of informa- tion, especially in the first few weeks of a semester. They are the only key to all of the new acquaintances made at regis- tration. Lucille Tuesno, a junior in accounting, likes her telephone job even though it gets hectic at times. For sophomore An- nette Spencer, a CIS major and co-worker of Tuesno’s, this is her second year as a campus operator. Their first and fore- most duty is answering the phones. Other duties include filing cards and working the ra- dio. Next door to the University Police building, where the oper- ators work, is the Post Office. These student worker’s jobs take them all over campus cir- culating mail to every depart- ment and every dorm. Student mail carriers are easy to recognize. They are ei- ther pushing a cart or carrying a mail bag delivering the mail. Senior Clem Parkhill, an ac- counting major, speaks of his job as “OK.” His favorite part about it is that ‘‘they don’t take out Social Security.” Another different line of work to be done on campus is working as a disc jockey at ra- dio station KNLU located in Brown Hall. John Gusky, a Radio Televi- sion Film major, says that his job at KNLU “keeps me busy, but | love it. It’s great!’’ As program director, he is in charge of all programming and selecting the music that is played on the air. A more peaceful job can be found in San- del Library. Accounting major Phyllis Colvin has first hand ex- perience. Her favorite part of the job is “writing people up.” If someone has an overdue book, Colvin sends out notices to students to return the book. Some of her other responsibil- ities are checking out books, shelving and doing odd jobs around the library. In the School Services Con- tinuing Education Department, one can find more students hard at work. This work-study job has student workers typing, answering phones, filing and just being a ‘“‘gopher’’ now and then. Freshman Computer Sci- ence major Tamah Waller, sophomore CIS major Regina Byrdson, and freshman Shelley LaPraire have found their place of employment here. When asked what they actu- ally do, Byrdson sums up the job as ‘“‘when not working, we turn to campus jobs for help | get to study, and also get to talk and gossip, ...”’ Another requirement of this department is showing incom- ing freshmen around the cam- pus. Phil Dixon has the impor- tant job of driving prospective students around in golf cart. His tours are a part of the re cruiting process. Pharmacy major Penny Bates found a job in the Re cords Department. Some of her duties include pulling records and making copies. She likes her job very much} especially because she is able to work around her schedule as most work-study jobs do. Now one has a broader look at the many different types o} employment that is available ai NLU. Need money? Need a job?) NLU has a vast work force ol. students with many different y jobs.

Sophomores 362 Faces When asked what their favor- ite time of year was, many stu- dents replied, ‘Well, it depends on the particular day in Louisi- ana.” The weather here cannot be catagorized into various sea- sons, because for the most part the temperature and weather conditions may be way off base no matter what season it is. Students new to this state may have experienced a cul- ture and a climate shock. For instance, temperatures have been known to climb into the mid-70’s in the middle of No- vember. Or chilling wind fac- tors of 30 to 40 degrees have been recorded in March. At the first sign of cold weather, some students go home to exchange summer duds for winter clothes. But alas, after maybe a few days of chilly weather, the sun comes out again. It may be as strong as it was on the Fourth of july, when in actuality, it is the fourth of November. Much to the un-experienced student’s dismay, he or she must attend class in their bliz- zard gear while the Louisiana native ‘‘cools-out” in his or her bermuda shorts and a T-shirt. As a rule of thumb, it is wise to keep both winter and sum- mer clothing on hand, because atmospheric conditions are likely to change without prior notice. In other words, expect the unexpected!!! As for those unfortunate souls who live in the dorms, a pleasant room _ temperature from one extreme to ano students adjust to Louisiana weather may be thought of as “wishful thinking.”’ Notice that there are no climate control thermostats on the wall. Again, at the first sign of cold weather, precautions are taken to avoid frost bite. Off go the air conditioners and the heaters are then turned on full- blast! Even if it does get back up to 80 degrees outside, the air con- ditioner cannot be cranked up again until April; take note that is still November!!!! For this reason, many ‘“‘seasoned’’ stu- dents return to school laden with portable heaters and fans. However, no matter how un- comfortable the weather here may seem, there is always “‘the lighter side.’ For example, one can sometimes get a tan in mid- January. Also, more wear can be obtained from a summel!) wardrobe. Furthermore, spine} chilling winds often come along’ in August to relieve some of) the heat. As a final note, it is almost) impossible to accurately pre} dict the weather in Louisiana. It’ may take a while to get used to: some people may never fully adjust. However, this weather seems to have a mind of its) own and nothing can be done to’ change it. Don’t worry about) what others will think if you wear shorts in January-it is al’ most certain that they will be, too. — Julie Feti) (——----. “It's hard to study when you're freezing to death, ’ says Lisa Hockett as she bundles up in her robe, slippers and earmuffs while drinking hot chocolate.

Richard Lupo Sophomores 365 ; soto on-the-job training . . . | erience grad assistants gain valuable exp For some college graduates, a Bachelor of Arts degree may not be enough. First of all, teaching on a college or univer- sity level requires at least a Masters, and a Doctorate is even better. Also, many people wish to become experts in their chosen profession, as well as pursue a higher academic degree. A graduate who holds a Mas- ters or a Doctorate often has greater job opportunities and can demand a higher scale of pay. The above reasons and a few others are what prompt more than 1,155 NLU and other col- lege graduates with BA’s to en- ter graduate school at North- east. Often, many of these stu- dents seek convenient on-cam- pus jobs, namely as graduate assistants. For most, a gra- duate assistantship is the ideal job. At present, Northeast has ap- proximately 313 graduate as- sistants with as average of 5-20 working in each department. Their main duties consist of teaching certain courses part- time, assisting professors and working in their department’s library and media labs. Some graduate students have discovered that positions are often limited in the area in which they hold a BA. Also, a graduate assistantship may be the only available job at a given 366 Faces time. For instance, Larry Thomp- son holds a Masters in applied voice, but has not been able to obtain his career goal with that degree. That goal is to teach voice on the college level, as well as to direct church choirs. Therefore, Thompson is now pursuing a new major, Music Education. His ultimate goal is to achieve the title of Doctor of Musical Arts. While a total of 12 credit hours a semester are required to be a full-time undergraduate student, a graduate student only has to take nine credit hours a semester to be consid- ered full-time. Based on personal prefer- ence, their classes can be scheduled either before or after work or on their days off. For the most part though, many combine work and classes on the same day at leisure. “You really learn to utilize your time,” said Judy Taylor. For a graduate student seek- ing an on-campus job, becom- ing a graduate assistant can be very beneficia l. It is great for on-the-job training and provides valuable experience. Finally, it may be ideal for prospective teachers who may still be unsure of themselves. They are able to see firsthand what teaching is like before ac- tually making a commitment. — Julie Fett Working in the Music Library is part of Laurie Henderson's duties while she works as a graduate assistant. Laurie holds a Bachelors degree in vocal and piano performance and is pursuing her Masters in that area. As a graduate student working in the Home Economics Department, Judy Taylor teaches social etiquette part- time. Normally she takes a break be- tween classes to work in the media lab.

While she attended Ward 3 High School, she was very active. One of her major activities was playing basketball. Attending Northeast was a decision Helams did not have a second thought about. Both her parents graduated from NL and it seemed to be in the best location. She said she never even considered anywhere else. After enrolling at Northeast, Helams did not waste any time sitting around. She got in volved by trying out for Indian Scouts. She was one of the 50 chosen out of 118 girls who tried out for the group. The In- Freshmen dian. Sectits, mainly an athletic ostess group, has a $450 scholarship for it’s members per semester. Helams was also involved in the fraternity rush week by serving as a Tau Kappa Epsilon rush girl. As of now, her major is in business education. Helams says that it may be subject to change. Outside of schoolwork and activities, Helams likes to sew, do needlecraft and different types of handiwork. For Helams, being a fresh- man is not a chore at all. It is a year of learning all about NLC. And, being as involved as she already is, the next three years should prove to be as exciting as the first. —- Michelle Carbo Don Dt) Abbey, Laura — Downsville Abney, Rebel — Mandeville Abraham, Adrienne — Shreveport Acreman, Pamela — Lake Providence Adair, Susan — Ruston Adams, Leland — Monroe Adams, Stacey — Hamburg, AR Adger, Bonnie — Shreveport Adger, Carol — Shreveport Adkins, Jerry — Coushatta Adkins, Michael — Coushatta Aikens, Shannon — West Monroe i Ainsworth, James — West Monroe Albritton, April — Monroe Albritton, Lea — Shreveport Alford, Parrish — Denham Springs Allen, Anthony — Homer Allen, Denedria — Monticello, AR Allen, Dewanna — Calhoun Allen, Paul — Vadalia Allen, Robert — Monroe Allen, Stephani — Bastrop | Allred, Ann — Jena Allred, Nan — Jena Alvarez, Carmen — Monroe Amarasingam, Skanda — Sri Lanka Amin, Pavitra — Denton, TX Anders, Tonya — Simmesport Anderson, Brad — Archibald Anderson, Christie — Shreveport Anderson, Katherine — Natchez, MS Anderson, Phyllis — Shreveport Andrews, Charles — Jonesboro Angelloz, Jennifer — Rosedale Anthony, Connie — Bastrop Aplin, Carla — Aimwell Arbogast, James — Tullos Arceneaux, Todd — Laplace Arnold, Ludwig — Crowville Arrant, Marc — Farmerville | Arthur, Reva — Shreveport | Atkins, Sarah — Bastrop if Atwood, Shelly — Haughton } Auchard, Mary - Shreveport Augustine, Menica — Eunice Ausberry, Fiona — Baskin Averette, Patricia — Monroe Aycock, Joelle — Baker Baggett, Amy — Bonita f | ' Baham, Melvin — Hammond | Bailey, Garland — Jena H Baker, Rene — Monroe i Baker, Tracy — Leesville ' Ballard, James — Vicksburg, MS 1 | Bamburg, James — Shreveport | Barber, Robert — Rayville | i { | Barnes, Jeffrey — Olla Barnes, Kristie — Bastrop Barnett, Michelle — Haughton Bartley, Dana — Winnfield is Barton, Lila — Gilbert 1] Basco, Dawn — Sikes 1 Bass, Jennifer t | Beal, Adria — Pineville Beall, Roger — Winnsboro Beard, Audra — Natchitoches Beard, Dana — Vadalia Beard, Deanna — Enterprise Bearden, John — Benton Bearden, Terry — West Monroe Freshmen 369 Beavers, Susan — Pollock Beasley, Matthew — El Dorado, AR Beavers, Tina — Haughton Becton, Cindy — West Monroe Bedell, Wendy — Newlland Beebe, William — Downsville Bell, Amberley — West Monroe Bell, Pamela — Shreveport Bellanger, Kim — Clayton Bennett, Amy — Monroe Bennett, Brad — Anacoco Bennett, Janet — Monroe Benson, Shirlene — Sterlington Bernard, Stacey — Abbeville Best, Charles — Delhi Bethard, Alvin — Jena Bethley, Richard — Zachary Bailas, Jilleen — Shreveport Bierbaum, Anita — Hamburg, AR Biggar, David — Texarkana, TX Bignar, Sandy — Olla Billeaud, Marie — Lafayette Bircher, Stephen — Gretna Bissic, Catonya — Logansport Bissinger, Ronnie — Oak Grove Black, Debble — Pioneer Black, Robert — Monroe Blackwell, Lynn — Monroe Blair, Albert — Monroe Blank, Sylvia — Monroe Blankenship, Eddie — Ferriday Blitch, Lis] Maria — Abita Springs Blood, Bridgette — Pineville Bocox, Jamie — Camden Boland, Jacquelyn — West Monroe Bolden, Leslie — Forest Bolding, Terri — Oak Grove Boles, Joel — Vadalia Bond, Martha — Avon, AR Bonner, Kay — Bastrop Bonner, Michael — Bastrop Bont, Cyndia — Monroe Bont, Dawn — Monroe Book, Melvin — Monterey Boone, Charles — Rayville Booth, Janis — Alexandria Borden, Candy — Monroe Borden, Jeffrey — Monroe Borden, Samantha — Oak Grove Bostick, Holly — Lk Village, AR Bostick, Wade — Grayson Boughton, Roger — Mangham Bowe, Bernadette — Gulph Mills, PA Bowman, Evyette — Jonesville Boyd, Robbie — Downsville Brabham, Nicky — Oakdale Brady, Melton — Winnsboro Brady, Michael — Sulphur Brantley, Ronald — Bastrop Brashier, Joey — Vadalia Brazzel, John — Homer Brewer, Dewanna — Winnfield Brinkley, John — Shreveport Britt, Patricia — Delhi Broadway, Arden — Mansville Brockway, Beth — Vicksburg, MS Brodhead, Dana — Alexandria Broocks, Jeffrey — Brandon Brooks, Simone — Elm Grove Brooks, Terrence — Marksville 370 Freshmen Broom, Amanda — Bossier City Broom, Betty — Plain Dealing Broomfield, Diana — Monroe Brosset, Valerie — West Monroe Brown, Ann — Alexandria ;

Index 401 Side By Side It was a year well worth remembering, as most of them are. Yet, it always seems there is something special about the year most recent in our memories. Maybe it was the fact that we were able to overcome life’s minor obstacles by standing side by side during the hard times. Looking back, it is simple to remember the trials and misfortunes, but usually there is a silver lining within each cloud that was encountered. Looking back at times with good friends may not seem super on the surface, for it is always easy to remember the mornings after, the drinks spilt on your new alligator boots, as well as the fear of the bouncer discovering your true age and identity. But something inside made you keep going, maybe because there just was not that much to do in our college town, or maybe because you did have a good time seeing friends outside the classroom, dancing side by side and acting like the typical college stu- dent. Special times like homecoming can only be shared by others who lived through the same ordeal. True, it is very easy to look back and dwell upon cold, wet rain after a major hurricane washes across the state and overstays its welcome. And as we sat back with our blankets and galoshes while watching McNeese steal our show, we chalked the homecoming loss up to the weather, the coach, the year and even fate. Despite the raging controversy over the unsettling court variations, most people remember a few spe- cial laughs midst the dreary appearance of the weekend. A chance to cuddle beneath umbrellas and blankets by a sweetheart’s side was only one good excuse not to boycott the whole thing. Parties were still held in the highest of spirits and Sunday proved a definite day of rest for all. Things are never quite as bad as they seem and during this year students proved that there is a sil- ver lining behind each cloud.

Laughing side by side is one of the best things students like Janie Hargis, Tracy Watson and Teri Holder have in com- mon, especially after winning the Hal- loween costume contest. MIN Sea TINY Mike Meeks 404 As the year progressed, we did manage to make it special in our own special way. Living, working and laughing by each other proved the best way. Imag- ine how you would have made it through the hard times without a friend by your side. Those same friends that you developed close ties with could possibly remain with you throughout life. A walk down the aisle at graduation might be a warmup to a walk down the church aisle with a person that shared more time than anyone with you. Even if you journey out into the world, you can rest assured that upon your homecoming back to Mon- roe, familiar faces will line your path. After graduating and making it on your own, you may even find yourself side by side with fellow classmates as pharmacists, nurses and business- men. For that matter, you may find that in time your old school buddies may be operating on your chil- dren, teaching them how to spell or even anchoring your national news. Either way, it is comforting to know you have friends that will possibly remain by your side for life. Richard Lupo The diversified interests of Northeast students is one of the major factors that bring them together. Preparing for exciting events such as Homecoming (Brenda Brinkley and Kathy Thibo- deaux), studying in the classroom as well as the library (Steve Smith and Closing Connie Snyder), laughing through the everpresent Monroe showers (Steve White and Kim Leleux), saluting the flag at football games and simply enjoy- ing belonging to a group are some of the special occurences in students lives. g a uv S i 2 Side By Side Who knows what the future will bring? Yet there it is, the promising future, staring each one of us in the face, daring us to do our best and strive for perfec- tion in everything that we do. For the students at Northeast, that lifelong task will be attainable, because we have something be- side us that will always be there, no matter what. We have people that care, people that will stand by us and help us overcome the challenges life pitches in our direction. Our lives have become even more special as we have given and taken of ourselves, sharing slices of our lives with one another. From now and on to the future, we will always remember the good times that we shared together, side by side. — Letha Benton John Cornelison It’s always easy to find a friend among the people at Northeast. It’s more fun to yell at football games with someone by your side (Steve Baum and Jennifer Snellgrove); time passes quickly when studying with others; fun experiences are always more enjoyable when shared with friends or even a werewolf!
