From east to west — KSC is our hub Face it — who would go to Kearney State College, located in the middle of the mid-West, in the center of the state of Nebraska? You, and an estimated 8,390 other students, that's who. Location played a major role in KSC's enrollment. Approximately 98 percent of students attending KSC this year were Nebraska residents. About 1,150 students claimed Kearney as their hometown, while an estimated 629 students came from Nebraska's major-city areas of Omaha and Lincoln. The remaining two percent included foreign students and those from out-of-state. In addition to location, students chose KSC because costs were reasonaable. The state-funded cam- pus enticed people to further their education. Another feature motivat- ing us to come here was the appealing progressive development of the campus. This development touched and improved the campus and extended throughout the city of Kearney. Downtown Kearney had been renovated to enhance the communi- ty. The city offered a wide variety of entertainment, eating places and shops. With its newly-developed mall it also offered an increasing number of jobs for KSC students, The size of Kearney allowed it to convey a community spirit. It was not too big, not too small, but “just right. KSC class sizes also resembled Kearney — they too were “just right. The classes were on a smaller scale than most colleges so there was a good student teacher ratio. Foreign students found KSC invit- ing because of its excellent exchange program that offered them a chance to see another corner of the world. They, and the out-of-state students did not get the chance to go home on the weekends like most students, but many made friends on campus and some even planned to live in Kearney after they graduated. Transfer students found KSC convenient because it accepted a wide number of credits from other Nebraska colleges and technical schools. We were varied. We had different cultural and educational back- grounds, yet we all came together as a unified whole, United, we made up the student body of KSC for the '84-85 school year and we were proud to have been a part of this institution, — Carolyn Troxel 3 Shields What we look like Fads and people show pizzazz From nose to toes, from hats to flats, we KSC students dressed to please ourselves. Originality and comfort dominated our choice of dress, For women, popular clothing trends Included cropped pants, sweater vests and a new hem-length for dresses — lower mid-calf, Pants were plaid, stripped or checked, giving the campus an array of color, while sweaters, dresses and jackets were tailored like men's clothing — producing the Boxy look. Though contrasts between tops and bottoms existed the unifying element in all clothing was that they tended to have an oversized look, Men's fashions fluctuated between conservative and modern. Pants were fashionable In baggy styles like those worn in the '50's and made of wool material, or slick shiny styles with a new look made of parachute material. KSC men also became increasingly daring in the colors they wore. Pinks and pastels were to become unisex colors. Other popular clothes seen on campus included: blue jeans with straight legs: solid-knit shirts with turned-up collars; and solid, bright- colored tennis shoes or flat neutral- colored dress shoes. Satin-type KSC blue and gold Jackets were spotted throughout the classrooms, and T-shirts and sweat suits still dominated out- of-class activities. Our clothes were fashionable for '85. As we look back over these pages of “current styles consider how much fun it will be to look back on them in later years. We will wonder why we ever dressed the way we did and perhaps we will comment “I wouldn't be caught dead in some- thing that looks like that now. Throughout the years The Blue and Gold has seen imaginitive fashions come and go. The styles changed with the times, but the faces never did — they still looked excited and eager. They were here at KSC facing forward, looking to the future — just as we have been this past year. — Carolyn Troxel upper left: Pressed tor a night on the town Joel Bessmer. Bruce Guthrie.

We were here to learn, to grow and to gain skills that would make our tomorrows better. As students, we approached our sojourn at KSC with a sense of face forward — with an eye toward the futurel But while optimism and hope were favorite by-words, immediate prac- tical concerns faced us all. There was the scramble to find housing, to find and develop ways and means of doing our studying — our work, exploring ways of relaxing and socializing, and discovering places that would help to nourish body and soul. Dorm life represented the first time away from home and parents for many students. For some, it was a new experience to share a room; for others it was an adjustment to different personalities. Sororities and fraternity houses were popular alternatives, to dormi- tory life, while apartment living and going the roommate-route proved attractive for others. For married students, school- provided housing was an additional living choice in their creative efforts at finding that proverbial roof-over- the-head. Commuter students didn't have to worry about where to hang their coats, but finding that early-morning parking space on a cold, snowy morning in January proved just as challenging. Once the nesting instinct was satisfied, we faced choices of other kinds. We chose to work hard to further our goals, but we also liked to relax and play hard on occasion. Studying is the perennial hard work of all students! Just a:s we chose a variety of living arrangements, so we found an array of studying styles and places. The Calvin T. Ryan Library was a favorite study haunt, especially on a Tuesday night. Sometimes it was hard to find an empty chair or sofa, as students poured through volumes of books, newspapers and magazines. Sometimes, if the weather was nice, a grassy knoll was the desired place to find some quiet and study time. But in a real pinch that last-minute cramming could be done sitting on the floor right outside the classroom. Weekends had a way of rolling around, and while there were those who made that weekend exodus for two days of home, others stayed and Above: A KSC student studies with concentration and lots of diligence. played. Local nightclubs like Dugans, Chips, Backlot and Faces were favorite spots for fun. Unwinding could take place with a lot of physical energy on the dance floor, bellying up to the bar, or just socializing with the abundance of people crowded into the popular night spots. And if nightclubs didn't fill the fun bill, there were often private parties in full-swing somewhere around Kearney! Movie houses were another popular source of entertainment. With the addition of three theaters in Kearney's new Hill Top Mall, there were movie selections to please all tastes. The year of the farmer was a new movie trend, as Country, Places in the Heart and The River all dealt with various angles of the farmer's plight, After all that hard work and play, food was needed to sustain us — food for both body and soul. Food for the body came from such places as the Student Union Cafeteria, fast-food franchises within the Union, fast-food shops in Kearney and cozy downtown restaurants. Campus vending machines never went hungry for quarters, dimes and nickels, The 7-It Convenience Store was a quick off-campus place to run to for snacks between classes. In addition, for the “do-it-yourselfer's, grocery stores provided all the in- gredients necessary to whip up that favorite home-cooked meal. Food for the soul was found in a variety of ways. Popular traditional places of worship included Newman Center, Campus Lutheran and United Ministries. Each place offered a selection of worship-service times, in addition to various study groups and socializing events, For the student who didn't attend religious services, sometimes finding a quiet corner in which to contemplate was soothing to the soul. Whatever our needs, KSC students were quick to identify them and find creative ways of fulfilling each. We perceived each need, met the challenges and in so doing — we faced forward. — Marsha Kaiser Above: Dorms provide an opportunity to make new friends for Jean Worrell, Cindy Anderson, Linda Lulf and Michele King.

Martin Hall and Phi Kappa Tau joined forces to take top honors in the annual sweepstakes competition for greatest participation in Homecoming events. A torch run marked A new beginning in homecoming activities this year, as runners from different KSC organizations ran from the state capitol in Lincoln to a bonfire on west campus. In honor of the Special Olympics, the would-be Olympians broke the 140-mile distance into sections and took turns carrying the torch. The Industrial Education Club and Home Economics Association team ran to victory in the event. KSC students saw another new beginning during Homecoming Week when they participated in a musical chairs competition. The contest invit- ed students to sprint, scream and tackle each other to gain possession of that all-important chair. The team of Alpha Phi and Sigma Tau Gamma grabbed the most chairs to nail down the win. KSC's Homecoming king and queen were crowned at halftime of the KSC-Emporia State football game amid shouts of approval from the crowd. Smiles abounded as soph- omore Jesse Trotter, sponsored by Randall Hall, and senior Terri Franzen, sponsored by Case Hall, were named king and queen. First prince and princess were senior Bruce Osier, Case Hall can- didate, and junior Teresa Siefkes, Centennial Towers East candidate. Mantor Hall representative, senior Mike Tichota and Blue and Gold represen- tative, junior Barb Sheldon, were named second prince and princess. In other traditional Homecoming events the Alpha Phi-Sigma Tau Gamma team yelled like hell to win the spirit competition. Chi Omega designed the winning banner while Martin Hall — Phi Kappa Tau ate their way to a first place finish in the pie-eating contest. The Industrial Education Club - NHEA team built the No. 1 float, which was seen by large crowds in ddwntown Kearney during the Homecoming parade. Homecoming means coming home, and for four KSC alumni it also meant being honored in recognition of excellence. Those recognized in conjunction with the Homecoming celebration included: Stan Miller, class of 1966, Los Angeles; John Payne, class of 1962, Kearney; Marilyn Whit- ney Peterson, class of 1955, Fremont; and Bob Phares, class of 1962, North Platte. Through participation in Home- coming events, “A new beginning inspired KSC students and alumni alike to face forward with enthusiasm as well as to look back and remember special moments at KSC. — Jane Carroll “Bermuda Triangle ' entertains the crowd at a concert during Homecoming week.

AD Building Final crunch comes to AD Building facing forward — it's out with the old and in with the new. We say our goodbyes to the Administration Building which was demolished last summer. The building had been part of the college since its beginning in 1905. The demolition of the building was part of KSC's continued efforts toward providing a safe, efficient, modern and attractive campus for its students, faculty and personnel to enjoy. Its removal allowed for a campus beautification project of sidewalks, expansive areas of green grass and landscaping. The building had been con- demned since 1967 by the state fire marshal because of dead-end cor- ridors, no fire exits and other safety items. In addition, Earl Rademacher, vice president for administration and finance, said much deterioration had taken place because of poor maintenance over the years. It would have been extremely costly to renovate the building, Rademacher said. The Administration Building was the oldest structure on campus. The center section was built in 1905 and the wings were added in 1910 and 1912. An auditorium was added to the west end of the main building five years later. The auditorium section was demolished in 1968 after it was found unsafe. The north and south wings had been closed for several years. The center section was in use until January, 1984. Artifacts having historical value, including marble floor tiles, part of a tin ceiling, oak doors and door frames, were taken from the building before the demolition began. Rademacher said these will be used in the future at appropriate places on campus. Two of the four pillars which stood in front of the building were also saved. Rademacher said plans for their use depended on private contribu- tions, but it is hoped they will be placed in the newly formed green area or around the Hostetler Amphith- eatre. — Donna Swigart Far left: Demolition started last summer on the Administration Building, built In 1906.

But KSC events were only a small part of what happened during this school year. The Olympics came and passed into history. Los Angeles hosted the Summer Olympics with several Eastern-Bloc countries boycotting the event. Closer to home, traveling the downtown Kearney streets was an Olympian event of its own. This ended in success with the completion of the Downtown Kearney Centre, which gave the downtown area a new and improved look with new streets and store-fronts. The first woman to run for national office was Geraldine Ferraro. She ran for the vice presidency on the Democratic ticket with Walter Mon- dale as the Presidential candidate. Their bid as the first his-her political reign was defeated however. Punning on a campaign of im- proved national economic conditions and subsequently receiving a landslide victory. President Ponald Reagan started his second term in office. Economically the picture for Ne- braska was not as rosy, with many Nebraska banks failing and Nebraska State Attorney General Paul Douglas, resigning from his office in connection with the failure of one. In Kearney, a new Hilltop Mall opened its doors while many farmers were forced to close theirs as the farm economy grew more desperate. Internationally, India's Prime Minis- ter. Indira Gandhi, was assassinated by her own guards, while famine devas- tated Africa. World-wide people were shocked at Africa's plight. Drought reduced food available, while the birthrate kept Increasing. So many people, too little foodl However, where there was death, there was life. Princess “Di of England gave birth to the royal couple's second son, while Barney Clark and William Schroeder both had a second chance at life with artificial heart implants. So many events happened on campus, in the state and around the world. Today it was newsworthy, tomorrow it would be history. — Diane Hodgson mi Back to School Summer ends ack to school! As summer IJ came to a close we re- grouped, reorganized and faced forward to begin a new school year, For some the change from sum- mer to school was gradual, as students wore shorts to classes, then sunglasses to Cottonmilll Lake after- ward. For others the change from summer vacation to the start of classes was more drastic. Some students walked off the beach and into the classroom, then kept moving forward until they reached the library. As school began, some saw the year to come as a beginning to their last year at KSC. Graduation took on a reality they could almost touch. Others began their first year at KSC and looked forward to the coming years with vigor and enthusiasm; taking a major forward step in their lives. Familiar faces and an old familiar building were gone. However, new faculty, new students, a new look and new facilities to teach and learn in, made back-to-school exciting for those new to KSC and created an invigorating change for those already established here. While back-to-school at KSC marked a first for some, it meant a return for others, We were back in college to work, play, study, laugh, cry, become frustrated and accom- plish. It was a time to meet new friends and keep in touch with the old. But for all of us, back-to-school was a time to come together in shared suroundings for the purpose of continuing our education and meeting educational goals. — Jane Carroll Upper right: Suzle Jlllette and Fred Lowrey dance to the music of “The Group in the Nebraskan parking lot.

Strong Issues Ads blasted as tasteless M Ithough we continually looked ahead, incorporating new ideas, a contraceptive m 1 advertisement shocked many KSC students into taking a second look at the print covering pages to their campus newspaper. The Antelope. The three-quarter page Today ad boasted “IN I960, THE PILL GAVE WOMEN NEW FREEDOM, IN 1984, THE SPONGE GIVES WOMEN A NEW CHOICE. The ad continued to grip the reader's attention with a visual Illustration of a woman's hand holding the easy to use sponge. Complet- ing the ad, an all-American, $100 off coupon enticed consumers to pur- chase two 3-paks or one 12-pak. This commercial attempt to en- lighten the KSC campus challenged many students to examine the value of censorship and determine how freedom of the press affects each of them personally. Offended by the blatant sexual Implications of the ad, two KSC students publicaly criticized The Antelope with letters to the editor, Kevin Scarrow accused the paper of trying to promote sex by printing and showing their support of this product. He went on, it is an offensive form of advertising which is displeasing both to faculty and students ... The advertisement is degrading to the Image of the paper. Russ Czaplewski also criticized the paper, There are limits to the tastelessness of the ads that are appropriate to our college news- paper ... I would like to think that the school newspaper would try to uphold the moral standards of our society and set a good example for the college as a whole. In response to the accusations KSC student Brenda Lovelace defend- ed The Antelope, suggesting It's the maturity level of the person that allows him to handle the idea of seeing them (contraceptive ads), Another KSC student, Mark Schroll wrote the editor, supporting this view. Perhaps the advertisement is serving the needs of those students not fortunate enough to have attended Helen Redden's (KSC instructor) Human Sexuality class. He questioned the rationale of the two young men accusing The Antelope of immoral ethics by writing, What is offensive about a product that besides being educationally oriented, claims to provide the consumer with freedom, choice and implicitly the ability to be personally responsible? At the center of the advertising conflict, freedom of the press and the issue of censorship were pitted against one another. The Antelope agreed to publish the advertisement at $60 per ad. Was The Antelope free of all responsibility as far as the offended students were concerned? The First Amendment does guar- antee Congress shall make no laws ... abridging the freedom of speech or of the press which, on the surface, suggests The Antelope was acting within moral and legal boundaries. A 1981 Supreme Court decision, the Magner decision is also a factor. In this case, a college newspaper adviser refused an ad for an abortion referral service, but also accepted an ad for Birthright. The Supreme Court said that just because one doesn't agree with viewpoints, they can't be kept out of the newspaper. Because of this decision, college newspapers must accept ads if they are publicly funded, as The Antelope is. The newspaper must also accept ads if it is established as a public forum, meaning it runs editorials and accepts letters to the editor. However, a 1970 Supreme Court ruling put restrictions on complete freedom. Newspapers are legally bound to consider community as well IN 196a THE PILLGAVE WOMEN A NEW FREEDOM.

In this cose, what are community and national standards? Does the ad present a viewpoint in good taste, or is it obscenity that should be cen- sored?

As we are looking to the future and forming our opinions and stan- dards, we must decide. — Donna Swigart New law wins no popularity contest Sitting at home on a Friday night with nothing to do. the 20-year-old thought, If only those damn lawmakers hadn't raised the drinking age, I could be at the bars right now, dancing and meeting new people. I guess I'll just have to find a party and play 'quarters' instead. His complaint stemmed from a new law that raised the legal drinking age in Nebraska from 20 to 21, effective Jan. 1, 1985. The law created a debate, mostly between law enforcement officials and minors ineligible to purchase liquor or enter a drinking establishment. Many KSC minors felt they were still going to drink at parties, in their dorm rooms, apartments, or in their cars, so why bother raising the legal drinking age, they questioned. The new law won't stop people from drinking, it will just get more people in trouble, said Minden sophomore Valerie Vitera. She said arrests for minor-tn-possession and procuring for minors might increase because of the change. On the other side of the con- troversy, Kearney police chief Robert Jatczak saw the new law as a necessary one. The new drinking age is an effort to diminish alcohol-related accidents. It's been proven that a direct relationship exists between alcohol and drinking as far as ac- cidents are concerned, he said, Jatczak expected the patrol for Driving While Intoxicated arrests to remain at the level it was when the legal drinking age was 20. However, he said areas with histories of traffic problems might experience an in- crease in patrolling. Dissenters to this theory of de- creased accidents argue that the change-in-age requirement would not decrease accidents caused by drunk drivers. They said that alcohol-related accidents could actually Increase; citing reasons such as an increase in “road tripping, that is, drinking and driving, usually on gravel roads and highways, as a form of entertainment. Bill Clinch, a certified alcohol and drug counselor, didn't see the change as having much impact on the alcohol consumption of minors. “If you want to drink, you're going to get alcohol no matter what the legal age is, and people will still drive when they're drunk, whether they're a minor or not, he said. The minor's search for entertain- ment and a social life could increase the number of private parties given, according to KSC senior Marsha Kaiser. The issue was also a concern for bar and nightclub owners. Gary Allen, owner of Faces Nightclub, noted that going to the local bars was a big part of a KSC student's social life, and that the Interaction of students would suffer when many of them couldn't legally enter a drinking establishment. Many KSC students also felt that the main deterrent of the raised legal drinking age was not being permitted to enter the bars. “Not being able to purchase alcohol wasn't a big deal because you could always find someone to buy for you. But not being able to enter a bar, dance, meet new people, and have a good time unless you were 21 was a farce to me, said one KSC minor who requested anony- mity. Although many KSC students expresed verbal opposition to the new law, the response didn't go as far as it did at some colleges and universities around the country. Students at Illinois State University staged sit-ins, disrupted highway traffic, pelted police with rocks, and broke store and office windows in opposition to strict new drinking policies. KSC students, however, refrained from violence. Many said that purchasing alcohol was not the real issue, but being told they were not old enough to enter a drinking establishment put a definite clamp on their social life. As a new legal face appeared on the state lawbooks, many legislators and law enforcement official saw it as a good change. However, many KSC students saw the law as a wrinkle on the face of a KSC student's social life, as they were forced to wait yet another year to engage in that traditional extra-curricular activity of going to the bars. — Jane Carroll 23 Issues Advice for porkers — “Let them 5ue's class was going to start in 10 minutes and she'd been around the block three times. Her frustration built by the second - there was not one parking place close to campus. The alterna- tive could mean walking eight blocks or more. A momentary hope rose, then was dashed, as a closer inspection showed a motorcycle taking up what had promised to be ci rare parking space. The residential area bordering campus became a backup solution. Some residents might resent the loss of their parking spot, but looking at her watch negated any consideration for their inconvenience - there was only three minutes to get to class! Desper- ation set in and a semi-legal parking attempt was made, followed by a dash to class. Fears of towing andl tickets lurked in Sue's mind throughout her classes. The same fears that caused her to complain to other fellow students. She found she wasn't alone. Parking at KSC was a favorite gripe of many students she talked to. Many students, visitors, com- muters and faculty to the campus have all, at one time or another, had a problem finding parking space. I pay to live here, but if I leave during the day, I usually can't find a parking spot when I return. People who don't buy parking stickers park behind our house on 24th Street, said Paula Ackerman, KSC student. Ackerman is one of the people who live in apartments in the residental area bordering campus. Parking is a real problem at KSC, said Mike Diffendeirfer, publishing representative from Walsworth Pub- lishing Co., whose work frequently brings him to campus. It's a hassle. You have to get a parking place to get permission to get a parking place, said Diffenderfer, in speaking about his personal experiences in trying to park near the source of his business at A.O. Thomas. Ever since the parking lot for car-poolers was shut down it has been difficult to find a parking spot. Car-poolers were competing with commuters, said Joel Lau from Hastings. Parking is a real pain around here, he said. Faculty member, Charles Pickens said that after 8:30 a.m, there was usually no parking for faculty members around Bruner Hall. He would then be forced to drive around and look for a spot, or try to park in the faculty lot near the Otto Olsen Building. Pickens said this lack of parking may have occurred because some faculty members were already here for the day. Remaining places were filled up by students with only an early class to attend, who believed they could sneak in and out, ahead of the crowd. In response to questions about parking complaints, Lynne Brandt, parking service officer, said, Every- body wants everything close, but people are going to have to learn to walk. Earl Rademacher, vice president for administration and finance, re- sponded with, Students need to leave 10 minutes earlier. They wait until the last minute, then become frustrated trying to find a close parking spot. Most parking tickets were written for having no permit during 1984-85, Brandt said. Some 11,900 tickets were written from the last of August, 1984, up to Christmas break. However, she also said 3,414 permits were sold for the year, but that there were only 2,440 parking stalls available. Accord- ing to Brandt, the reason this was done was because every vehicle parked on campus must have a valid permit. Solutions relating to the parking problem cited included working to acquire more properties between west and center campuses. A high- rise parking complex has also been a consideration but would have cost to much to maintain in addition to high interest rates, Rademacher said. According to Rademacher, this would have also resulted in high parking fees for students and faculty. As another possible solution, a shuttle bus was discussed, with students paying so much a year for its use. Pickens said he would like to see the Student Activities Council inves- tigate this possible solution for moving people back and forth, from east to west, as well as surrounding parking lots. A four-year-plan to improve and add additional parking lots was under way. Through this plan more land was being purchased and gravel lots were being hard-surfaced as well as added lighting improvements. Meanwhile, another frustrated driver had found a ticket on his window and Sue's car had been towed from her semi-legal parking spot. In 1984-85 the controversy surrounding parking at KSC kept many drivers muttering under their breaths. — Katherine Brown For Jane, this issue necessitates anonymity which we gave Eating, a silent issue that can kill mane, a 2'1-year-old KSC junior, m spent much of the summer B and early fall of 1984 in front of a television set gorging on foods like ice cream, doughnuts, candy bars and potato chips, then forcing herself to vomit, Jane followed this routine, known as binge-eating and purging, at least 10 times a day. She was also getting up at 4:30 a.m. daily for a minimum of three hours of exercise. That was before she slashed her wrists. Her suicide attempt led to treat- ment at an eating disorders clinic in Omaha, followed by Jane's return to KSC in January, when she and Dawn Ulrich, a school counselor, organized a self-help group for other college women with similar problems. Eating disorders, more specifically bulimia and anorexia nervosa, had become a serious health problem nationwide — and KSC was no exception, according to Ulrich. Coun- seling young people with eating disorders had become a large part of her day. Ulrich gave the American Anorex- ia Nervosa Association's definition of anorexia as ... a serious illness of deliberate self-starvation. She added that bulimia is characterized by compulsive binge-eating and purging — by way of self-induced vomiting, laxative abuse and or diuretics. In either disease food becomes an addiction or obsession, she said. Secrecy and feelings of shame or guilt about eating are also character- istics. Because of the confidentiality of her patients, Ulrich declined to give numbers on how many KSC people were receiving counseling for eating disorders, but she stressed it had become a campus problem — most common at KSC among freshmen women, It's not only weight. There are usually other problems that go along with it, only we choose to ignore the other problems and concentrate on the weight instead, Jane said. Jane's problems snowballed in the summer of 1984. By strict dieting, fasting and exercising she lost 45 pounds from September to April. That summer she was home alone with lots of free time. She began the binging and purging cycle, then she said she was also taking between 100 to 200 laxatives a week. Yet the weight started to gradually come back on. By fall, she had regained all of the 45 pounds. Jane said weight gain is common among bulimics because binges are usually on high caloric foods which the body absorbs despite purgings. Frus- tration and depression result. Jane attempted classwork at KSC in the fall, often physically weak and exhausted from dehydration and the 4:30 a.m. exercise regimen. If it were a choice between a date or exercise, I would exercise. I even got up that early on weekends because I hated myself if I didn't exercise. In October Jane thought she preferred death to the life she was living. But at the Omaha clinic, Jane said women undergo extensive group and individual counseling as well as learn about food, diet and nutrition. A major attitude, once you've recovered, is you need to know food is a real scary subject — it will be hard to eat and hard not to eat too much ... We were taught to look at food as a medicine you must take three times a day. And, like medicine, you don't want to take too much and not too little. And you must take it at the right times, she noted Gloria Tye, a nurse at KSC's Student Health, said most women suffering from either disorder will usually not seek help. Instead they will require medical treatment for other problems — problems usually related to the eating disorder. Jane is aware of some of those medical problems. Vomiting can become physically addicting and patients can experience withdrawal symptoms once self-induced vomiting is stopped. Sometimes eating disorders don't arise until the freshmen year in college. Ulrich said women entering college are often leaving home for the first time. Many fall victim to a traditional problem nicknamed the freshmen 15. This phenomenon is the result of such lifestyle changes as the overeat- ing of junk foods from fast-food restaurants or the dormitory vending machines. Peer pressure to party on weekends can also lead to weight gain. For some of these women the added 15 pounds to their frames brings on panic, which could lead to unhealthy ways of coping, according to the counselor. For a few it might result in the extremes of anorexia or bulimia, she said. Jane said she doesn't believe there is anything wrong with being concerned about weight. But be aware you might have a problem if your weight and dieting become the most important things in your life, or you panic everytime you gain a pound. Today Jane considers herself recovered, But she knows she has to be careful. I still get up every morning and think I am fat. But being out and doing things is a lot better than looking at the toilet. — Blue and Gold Editorial Staff Issues Cancer — nasty word but time to face it Cancer! An issue most youthful college students would like to avoid. But avoidance is the worst thing you can do, according to Arlis Weed, tumor registrar for Kearney's Good Samari- tan Hospital. “Information about and for any cancer is important. Coliege, and the average college age, is an excellent time and place for education about cancer, Weed said. Not talking about it is a solution that many use in avoiding the topic of cancer. But with the recent loss of two well-known KSC professors, whether we wanted to talk about it or not, cancer was brought to campus attention this year. Students, co-workers and other faculty members experienced the loss of these two professors because of cancer. Cancer strikes all ages. While older people are more likely to get cancer, youth should not consider themselves immune, according to Beth Hulthusen, central area execu- tive director of the American Cancer Society. Halthusen said there are some cancers that are prevetant in college- age people. Supporting this information. Weed said, “In the '19-29 age group within the Kearney area, there are 38 cases of cancer at this time. They vary from cancer of the thyroid gland, lymph, esophagus, sinus, lung, breast, cervix, testes, bladder and brain, in addition to Hodgkin's disease and leukemia. Even Ann Landers states that there is more cancer in the U.S. than 35 years ago. She attributes this to five reasons: (1) more accurate diagnos- ing; (2) the population has increased approximately 55 percent during the past 35 years; (3) more women are smoking; (4) industrial pollution has became heavier and (5) people are living longer. While lymphomia and leukemia are two cancers that strike young people, Dr. Robert C. Rosenlof of Kearney said there is an increased amount of lymphoma and leukemia in the Central Platte Valley — perhaps twice as much as the national average. Cancer can be an issue even Seven Warning Signs hange of bowel bladder habits. A sore that won't heal. Unusual bleeding dis- charge. Thickening or lump in breast or elsewhere.

For Jane Carroll, a KSC student, losing her father to cancer was an emotional trauma that came during her college senior year. For other students, according to Darlene Bevard, counselor at KSC's counseling center, it can mean losing an unde, a spouse or another close person. The student has to deal with the changes that cancer within the family brings — and frequently, the grieving process. Halthusen said that the American Cancer Society stresses that support groups are important. She said sup- port groups include not only the cancer victims, but other family members who share in the cancer experience. Halthusen said In these support groups, persons often find they' e not alone; they can learn from each other about ways to get through such things as chemotherapy and the fear of loss. Being aware of cancer as an issue Is only the first step for college students, according to Flalthusen. She said early diagnosis is very important in increasing survival chances. “Be aware of the warning signs, she said. But, she added that more then recognizing the warning signs, young people should be aware of eating habits such as low fat and high fiber. There are things one can do to minimize the odds of getting cancer, according to Halthusen. She advises that people should learn more about stress management; that they should take responsibility for their own health and well-being by eating right, getting regular medical exams and moderating their lifestyles. She said young people should not fall info the trap of thinking cancer only happens when you're older. Both Halthusen and Weed stressed education and awareness are two important keys in keeping healthy and avoiding cancer — and if it can't be avoided, then In coping with it in a successful and positive way. Cancer — it's an issue. An issue that can be approached with silence and ignorance, or with information and education. It's your choice. — Carolyn Troxel and Marsha Kaiser English loses professor oseph Carroll told a story m about himself once. He was standing on a street corner in New York City when a passing city bus rudely coughed black fumes at him. After that he decided, Okay - I'm leaving! So he moved to Chicago, then on to Kansas. Carroll was born in New York City on Nov. 'll, 1922. After serving in World War II, he earned his bachelor of arts degree at Long Island University in 1951. He attended Fort Hays State University. In 1957 he earned a master of science degree in education administration. Six years later he earned a master of art degree in American literature at the University of Kansas. While living in Kansas, he taught at Catherine K.S. Grade School, Hays Kansas Junior High School and the University of Kansas. Carroll joined KSC in August 1963 as an instructor of English. In 1969, he became an assistant professor. Dr. Harland Hoffman, professor of English, described Carroll as being extraor- dinarily cooperative, energetic and Jk dedicated scholar. Dr. Gene j E. Hamaker, professor of history at KSC, maintained an m ■ office on campus until the time of his death, according to History Department Chairman Dr. Mike Schuyler. Dr. Hamaker died at his home in Kearney on Oct. 19, after a prolonged battle with cancer. Hamaker devoted his life to history, even to the exclusion of what most would consider an active social life, Schuyler said. He added that Hamaker's dedication to his work left him virtually unknown to many outside the history department. Hamaker's word did not go unnoticed in the world of print however. Two books of Hamaker's were published: Irrigation Pioneers and Brighton, Colorado. His writing was also featured in another book, Public Power in Nebraska. He also contributed, through articles and reviews, to a number of historical and educational journals. Several associations listed Hamaker as an active member: From willing. This willingness was described by Dwight Adams, professor of English. “Joe was willing to work with the students - to put in extra time with them. He liked students. He worried a lot whether he was getting through to them. Also, he had a great concern for the subject matter. He studied very hard and was always well prepared for his classes. Carroll's dedication to his career was further displayed by the list of his memberships. These included: Kear- ney State Education Association, National Council of Teachers of English, Modern Language Associa- tion, National Education Association, American Association of University Professors, Nebraska Council of Teachers of English and Phi Delta Kappa. Carroll died April 23, 1985, at the age of 62, a victim of cancer. Surviving him are his wife Mary Alice, daughters Jane and Jody, and two grandchildren. — Connie Lightner the Popular Culture Association, Rocky Mountain Social Association, to Ne- braska State Records Board and the Midwest Archives Center. At KSC he was director of the Kearney Center for Archives and History since its inception. Dr. Hamaker was a 1945 graduate of Ainsworth High School. From 1946 to 1949 he was a member of the 82nd Airborn Division, United States Army. He earned his bachelor of arts degree from the University of Nebraska at Lincoln in 1958. Before arriving at Kearney he held a variety of teaching positions at Midwestern University, University of Hawaii and Idaho State University. He was also chairman of the department of history and political science at Dana College and was an instructor at the University of Nebraska at the Lincoln Extension Division. His work will live on in the writing he produced over a lifetime, Schuyler said, adding, “He was a scholar, a gentleman and a friend to the college. He is missed. — Joel Lau 27 Cancer claims Hamaker Student Services Above: A student gets professional advice on her condition. Right: Vickie Unferth, assistant director of Residence Life, takes part in Welcome Week activities. Programs designed to benefit student needs rhe Counseling and Advising Center in Student Services is looking to the future. In the last few years, programs have been introduced to make students feel happy and more at home, said Janet Blake, acting director of counseling and advising. Resident assistants, tutors and others have been learning how to help in improving residence hall life through skills in leadership and communication. This program in the counseling and advising center is about two years old. The Early Warning System, which is new this year, alerts advisers of students who are in trouble in classes. Residence directors or student advi- sors contact troubled students to offer help. We hope to find students with concerns and get help for them, said Blake. A program designed to identify students likely to leave college is the Exit Prone program. Student Services screens all academic - advising folders and entering - student surveys to identify students with academic dif- ficulties or students not prepared for college. The Organization - Student Match program tries to get students involved in campus activities by sending them meeting notices from clubs and organizations in which they have indicated an interest on surveys. All of these programs are de- signed to make students feel involved and happy, to prevent them from wanting to leave college. Blake said, “Our goal is not to make them stay, but make them feel good about the institution. These are just some of the services provided to KSC students. Other existing supplements to better- ing student life are programs like Student Health, Career Planning and Placement and Campus Security. — Donna Swigarf Upper left: Vickie Unferth. assistant director of Residence Life, and Kurt Hoffman, vice president for Student Services, discuss ideas.

There were speeches on positive thinking, living life to its fullest, child incest and more. The Politicians: Sen. James Exon said he was against the MX missle (the peace- keeper) and his solution to the problem was “.. . We've got to get together with the Soviets. Rep. Hal Daub supported the aid given by the United States to freedom fighters in Central America. He said people can not believe the promises made by Marxist leaders and that the contras were working to regain democracy in Central America. Sen. Ernie Chambers had a few things to say about the Nebraska farmer. He said agriculture is like “a comatose person on a life-support apparatus. Its brain is dead. Its heart does not beat; its rationality is gone and its In a shell. Rep. Virginia Smith kept the topic going when she warned against protectionism and how it would hurt the farmer. Smith said. Protectionism is one of the most dangerous issues facing our country today. She thought free trade was the solution to the problem. The Entertainers: Larry Linville, known to all life-long members of the “MASH television series fan club as Major Frank Bums, told his KSC audience why he left “MASH after five of its 11 televised years. He said several things were going wrong for him in his personal life and they affected his performance on the show. There are no excuses when you're on that screen, he said. “Even if your mother just got shot, the audience doesn't give a damn. They want to see a show. Despite his personal problems, Linville proved that in the time he was on the show he could show comic genius. His antagonistic character gave the viewer someone to boo. As he said, Comedy is not just a joke, it's a rhythm. Albert Hague, who played profes- sor Shorofsky in fhe movie Fame, told KSC students he has lived in Catch-22 existence. “If you don't know what you don't know, you're in trouble, he said. He studied music with so much intensity that, he said, “I was the only guy in school who did not know there was a nymphomaniac in my class. Puppeteer Shari Lewis, and her friend Lamb Chop, brought the message “do it better to the students Of KSC. The theme of her speech was Thrive I Don't Just Sur- vive. She said everyone needs to constantly adjust his goals and con- centrate on enjoying the work. She said that successful people are successful because “they do it. They do it without condemning themselves, and they stress the non-competitive nature they use, to strive for self- potential. The top program, according to many of the women on campus, was the arrival of Peter Reckell. Reckell is better known to soap fans as Bo Brady of “Days of Our Lives. Reckell's message was simple enough in concept, but he suggested it was harder to implement. He said having a positive attitude is a big step toward being successful. He added. Figure out who you are and what you can do. Keep yourself open to the rest. Other personalities: Camelia Sadat, daughter of the late Anwar Sadat, talked about the traditional role of Egyptian women and how it contrasts to roles held by most American women. “In my country the basic role of a woman is a housewife, she said. She didn't want to see her fellow country women become like those in the United States. What the Egyptian woman goes through is much more, but she is still fighting, still happy and she doesn't need a psychiatrist. AI Marruggi, NTV political reporter, told a KSC audience that he believes television tries to be objective but time becomes a problem. “In order to overcome the problem of trying to cram all these facts into 60 seconds, he said, “you can't put every bit of information in the piece. You have to make it sharp, using only the best and most direct parts. There is no time for analysis. To make up for the time restrictions, he said, television uses extensive video coverage. Marruggi said, “Television Is a medium that depends on, and is obsessed with, video. It's the pictures that hold your interest. Reminding us that all is not well in the world, Katherine Brady shared her personal nightmare with us when she talked about incest and her 10 year ordeal. Brady said people need to quit being victims; a victim mentality helps perpetuate the damage done for generations. The vicious cycle many find themselves in has helped incest reach epidemic proportions, accord- ing to Brady. She said one out of 10 families was effected in some way by incest. Her way of helping herself deal with her own experiences of incest was to write a book, Father's Day. She said she couldn't talk about it, so she wrote it down. According to Brady, she no longer feels the shackles of silence to hold back her message. She said when asked by Phil Donahue, during an appearance on his show, when she was going to quit talking about the subject, she replied, I'm not going to stop talking about incest until Incest stops. The list of lecturers could go on. After all, there were various speakers for a variety of special-interest groups. But, to borrow a line from Bo Brady, “I'm outta here. — Joel Lau Top: KSC students taking It all In during one of the many events held on campus.

For m m those who did, the year 1978 came alive again on KSC's campus, when Cheap Trick performed. For the crowd of 1,300, stepping into a time warp brought them closer to old favorite tunes like: “Dream Police,'' Stop this game, “I can't take it alone, “Up the creek and “Sur- render. Cheap Trick was just one of the performances held at KSC during the 1984-85 school year. The students, faculty and local citizens found a wide range of entertainment provided by a variety of talented artists. KSC students heard music per- formed by trumpeter Maynard Fergu- son. Fie played in a style that he said was influenced by Louis Armstrong. Maynard performed his Grammy winning hit, “Gonna Fly Now, from the movie “Rocky, to a crowd that enjoyed the musical style of jazz. Gene Cotton performed in a solo concert before an estimated audience of 40 people. If you were one of the 40 you had a chance to hear the singer-songwriter's hit song Before My Heart Finds Out. “Close your eyes and take my hand, and I'll show you you can see what I hear, were the words to a song sung by Tom Sullivan, a blind musician. Sullivan said, “Life is the celebra- tion of everybody's own uniqueness. We need to learn to put it on the line. Our own uniqueness often gets blocked because we play it safe. He added, “Every human being has a disadvantage. The key to survival is learning to turn it into an advantage. Sullivan said people need to open up their senses. People need to feel the warmth of a hug and listen to the sound of a smile, Sullivan said. Did you ever suspect that politics was really a form of comedy? Comedian Steve Gipson showed students how funny politics can really be in his comedy routine that featured caricature sketches of past presidents and current president, Ronald Reagan. Hypnotist Edwin L. Baron placed 20 KSC volunteers in a state of hypnosis and showed an audience of 425 what can be done when you reach the subconscious mind. He took volunteers to the freezing North Pole, to the park, and all the way to Mars and back. Baron said, “In each new setting, I was able to communicate different responses and the subjects acted accordingly because their minds were making the judgment. He added, “It only works with normal and intelligent people. Baron left the volunteers with a hypnotic suggestion. “You will enjoy school more than ever, he said. “You will become fascinated with school. When you are out of class you will have a strong urge compelling you to continue studying. You will wake up feeling great. The school year provided a variety of entertainers. There was also a wealth of talent represented by KSC students and faculty; many providing entertainment weekly in the form of recitals, concerts, plays and art exhibits. Entertainment — it came in many forms, giving the campus community a diversity of choice. — Joel Lau Left: Singer-songwriter Sene Cotton sings his tune to an audience of 40 in the Ponderosa Room. o 33 Theater Extremities: controversial and intense ecause of it's subject matter LJ Extremities sparked much speculation and discussion. However actress Kerry Reid, speaking about the play said, “this play was neither written nor directed as a piece of sensationalist, exploitive drama. It is a serious play, which raises questions about the legal system and It's capacity to protect victims of violent crimes. Kerry played Marjorie, who is viciously assaulted by Raul (Greg Pospisil). In a graphic and unsettlingly realistic opening scene the audience witnesses the physical and emotional degradation of a woman, as her attacker not only forces her co- operation but makes her beg for his assault. Marjorie manages to blind her attacker with a nearby can of insect spray, and we find the tables turned. “With the entry of Marjorie's roommates, Mastrosimone empha- sizes the huge gulf that exists between the victim of a physical assault and the outsider Kerry said. As the play continues, the tension and aggression between the three women grows. Forcing them apart is the insidious Raul, who manipulates the situation and the emotions of the three women. Audience member Alexander Steele Parker said of the play, “There is nothing half-hearted about 'Extremi- ties'. The direction and the acting were as powerful as the script. It was not an enjoyable play, nor do I think was it written or directed to be enjoyed. But it held the audience transfixed, and left everyone wonder- ing who exactly was the victim and who was the aggressor. — Lorna MacGregor EXTREMITIES by William Mastrosimone; direcied by Jack Garrison; set design, Jim Humphries; lighting design, Jim Wood; costume design, Michael Pieper; stag� ' manager, Kim Wolkow.

An inconspicuous looking room; not the sort of place in which one would expect a murder to take place. But Mrs. Boyle is murdered and every member of the household has had opportunity, and perhaps even motive. Seven people are trapped in the house, isolated by a snowstorm, and someone has cut the phone lines. The murderer's signature tune, Three Blind Mice, cryptically promises that there will be yet another murder; everyone is a suspect. As Detective Sergeant Trotter tries to discover the identity of the murderer and the possible victim before it is too late, it becomes obvious that everyone has something to hide. And why was Mrs. Boyle mur- dered? It is true that absolutely no one liked her; she was a horrible complain- ing, domineering woman, but this is hardly reason for murdering her. Is there something about Mrs. Boyle, and her past that no one but the murderer knows? All is revealed and in typical Agatha Christie style the revelation is a shock, to the characters as well as the audience, said director Amanda Alpaugh. Working out the maze of relationships - who's telling the truth about who and what - and trying to identify the killer, keeps the audience involved. This is a large reason that 'who-done-it' murder mysteries are so popular. The Mousetrap has indeed proven popular. In 1984 it celebrated it's 32nd year of performance in London, where it still receives sell-out audiences. — Lorna MacGregor 35 nee “Ah... fun!’’ £ugene O'Neill's play, Ah, Wilderness! was a nostalgic look at his family and people he knew. The play takes place on the Fourth of July in 1906 in a small Connecticut town. Jack Garrison, associate director of theater at KSC, said, It's a sentimental comedy about Richard and his first love. Richard was a senior in high school and a rebel. He was also passionately in love with a neighbor girl and meant to marry her. The scraps of Swineburne verse he sent to her alarmed her father, who forced her to break up with Richard in good, melodramatic style. Being young and arrogant, Richard runs amuck to spite her and gets tight in the presence of a strange lady. His parents were sure the world was coming to an end. But Richard's girlfriend managed to prove her devotion at a moonlit rendezous on the beach and Richard is himself again. There were a number of comical characters, including an alcoholic uncle and an old maid teacher aunt. The play was performed with a heavy Victorian set and $500 worth of costumes for the 17 cast members. — Diane Hodgson Cast Nat Miller Mike Christensen Essie Miller Patti Frazee Arthur Miller Doug Sullivan Richard Miller Shon Little Richard's younger brother T.

Variety, spice of — dance! ■jumper stickers on numerous IJautos around campus this year ■read, “I'd rather be dancing. And students who believed this motto apparently came from the ranks of many disciplines as exem- plified by participation in the annual student dance concert in February. You name it, we had it, said Gary Schaaf, KSC director of dance. He was referring to the variety of departments represented by the 22 concert dancers. There were some dance minors, but many of the dancers majored in geography, his- tory and foreign languages as well, he said. Concert performers were selected by audition. In addition to student participa- tion, three faculty members per- formed. Schaaf and Dr. Sylvie Moulin of the Foreign Lauguage Department danced a classical ballet, and Keri Bergskoog, a part-time dance instructor, participated in a number of selections. The 1985 dance concert was the sixth year KSC has placed student dancers in the spotlight. Schaaf noted the program has grown in terms of quality of performance as well as audience interest each year. In order to provide versatility for dancers as well as entertainment, the program ranged from art to upbeat selections, said Schaaf. Performances included classical ballet, tap and jazz. On display were not only dance talent, but choreography and cos- tume design as well. Schaaf said interest in dance started with the 1977 hit movie, “Saturday Night Fever, and it has been growing since. The local campus reflects this interest, he said, with enrollment in dance classes more than doubling in the past six years. —Editorial Staff I Annie gets her guy ■ udging from audience re- m sponse, one might conclude m that an old-fashioned story of love and rivalry, set in the wild west, was still very much in style. Annie Get Vour Gun, a musical presented in the spring semester by KSC theater department, was sold out four of its five nights, according to Fred Koontz, KSC director of theater. I was really happy with several letters from patrons commending the play, said Koontz. The musical, written by Irving Berlin in 1946, revolved around a rivalry between Annie Oakley and Frank Butler. Annie and Frank were both members of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. The plot centered around the age-old theme of girl meets boy, girl loses boy, and finally, girl gets boy. The musical, which was originally a one-person show starring Ethel Merman, was choreographed by Gary Schaaf, KSC dance instructor. Schaaf said choreography was simple and served mainly to enhance the show. Annabel Zikmund, musical director for the production, described Annie Get Your Gun as a good family show - good fun with nothing offensive about it. — Carla Post Cast Annie Oakley ..

Dr. Gary Thomas, chairman and professor of the music department, said, The Department of Music offered many educational and cultural opportunities for students and patrons during the 1984-85 academic year. Over 60 recitals and concerts were presented at KSC and at many schools through- out Nebraska. The list of accomplishments was long for the various music organiza- tions. Each separate group within the music department had its own special highlight for the year. College Choir, the only non-select vocal group, and The Choraleers, a touring concert choir, were directed by David Bauer. A highlight for them was performing in four concerts, one in conjunction with the Holdrege High School choir at a March 4 concert. The Choraleers went on tour to five towns in northeastern Nebraska during the first week in December. The Nebraskats, a show choir directed by Annabell Zikmund, per- to rock, KSC music rings across state formed early popular music from the '40's and '50's for several banquets and groups. During April they took their show on the road to eastern northeastern Nebraska before return- ing to give a home performance. The Chamber Singers, directed by Myron Osterberg, consisted of 20 vocalists who performed a range of music from classical to contemporary. In October, the group performed for the Nebraska Choral Directors As- sociation convention at Kearney High School. They performed in fall and spring concerts, in addition to the Christmas concert the annual sing- along with the Concert Band. Also during Christmas season they gave several off-campus performances. The Chamber Singers toured south- western Nebraska in March, Osterberg described the tour, and performing for the choral director's convention, as highlights of the year. Ron Crocker directed the KSC Marching Band, Symphonic Band and Concert Band. For the third straight year, the marching “bandtastics was the lead band in the Harvest of Harmony Parade In Grand Island. They also performed in five half-time shows. Crocker said he and the band are looking forward to new uniforms next year. The Symphonic Band had a name change from the Symphonic Wind Ensemble. Crocker said, Nobody knew what a wind ensemble was. We needed a recognizable name. This group, consisting of 53 people select- ed by audition, toured northwestern Nebraska and gave a home concert in February. The Concert Band played a Christmas concert and joined the Symphonic Band in playing at winter commencement exercises. Both bands performed in a spring concert. The Jazz-Rock Ensemble, directed by Dr. Jim Payne, performed a variety of music including: swing, rock, latin, gospel, ballads and fusion, which is a combination of rock and jazz. This select group went on a 10-concert tour of southeastern Nebraska and also performed in winter and spring concerts. The KSC Orchestra, directed by Dr. Gerald Feese, consisted of college and community musicians who per- formed in November and April con- certs. Dr. Carl Easterbrook, a retired KSC professor, was the guest vocal soloist for the April concert. Also, some orchestra personnel performed in the musical Annie Get Your Gun, produced by the theater department. Other events within the music department included sponsoring a high school honor band and choral clinic. Also during spring, a junior-senior high school piano workshop was held in which Nancy Whitman, assistant music professor, was involved. Finally, the annual week-long summer music camp for high school students was sponsored by the department. Such were the many ways in which KSC's music organizations shined in 1984-85. Thomas said he was proud of the faculty's qualifications and musician- ship, and of the students' dedication to academic programs and service activities. As for the future, Thomas would like to see growth and general improvement within the music depart- ment. He also plans on the depart- ment continuing to serve the people in the Kearney area with musical programs and performances. —Connie Lightner Adding to the excitement in 'toper-land during athletic events are members of the pep band. Bike Bowl i Bike Bowl returns to KSC a ike Bowl... it's a name that has LJbecome as familiar as Kleenex, ■Jello and Band-Aid to many students. In other words. Bike Bowl was a unique event on campus which had become so generic sound- ing some people no longer knew what it was all about. The Bike Bowl weekend has been called Nebraska's only bowl. Bike Bowl originated with the Little Indiana 500, an event that a college in Indiana started, KSC heard about it 19 years ago and picked up the idea. Kearney State is the only college in Nebraska to put on this event. The first Bike Bowls were simpler than today's. Teams had four members, like present-day teams, but there was no two-man pit car. In the late '70s, Bike Bowl gained popularity. Large carnivals and concerts with well-known bands were held as part of the event. Eddy Young, the '85 Bike Bowl chairman, said the whole state got involved then. Young gave a definition of Bike Bowl by calling it spring's version of Homecoming. Bike Bowl is a week of activities ending with the races on Friday and Saturday. Some of this year's activities included: the Spurs talent show, a professional food management picnic, a film presenta- tion of Earthwalk, a dance, and the Rock Morris Memorial Run on Sunday. Also, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes presented connedian singer Roger Cooper and the Student Activities Council presented psychic Marcella Ruble. Finally the races consisted of a mini-race and mini-race finals — one of the few times a viewer might see college students on tricycles - and the bike race. These races could have up to 20 teams participate, This year, the competition in the mini-race and the bike race included 17 and 16 teams respectively. Young said the Bike Bowl committee considered this the rebuild- ing year after the bowl had to be cancelled last year due to high winds. They tried something new with the mini-race by having it at the Nebras- kan courtyard. Also, mini-race rules were simplified by not having penalty points given for crossing over the edges of the figure-8 track. Pylons were set up instead. The bike race, which was held at the Nebraskan Safety Center Driving Range, has become increasingly competitive. Young explained, The competition was turning a lot of organizations off. In the late '70s teams were turned away because too many wanted to be in it. People did it more for the fun of it. We hoped to bring the fun back this year. On the other hand. Young said, “The competiveness serves an inter- est. It brings people out. President Nester presented tro- phies to the top three finishers in the men's and women's divisions. These included: Mens' - 1st, Beta Sigs; 2nd, Phi Delt-Black; 3rd, Case Hall. Womens' - 1st, Gamma Phi Beta; 2nd, APO Bombshell Ladies; 3rd, Alpha Phi's. The Beta Sig team also won the traveling trophy which was retired this year. Other teams participating in the bike race were the Alumni Team, Union Cyclers, APO Bombshell Babies, Phi Delta Theta-Blue, Theta XI, Sig Eps, Phi Kappa Tau, FCA, AOPi's and Chi Omega. Phi Delta Theta took the top three spots in the mini-race held Saturday morning, due to rainy weather on Friday afternoon. Peddlin' Pete and Petunia awards went to Phil DeMuth, Beta Sigma Psi, and Kelly King, Chi Omega. Through the involvement of students like these, the unique and everchanging Bike Bowl continued, and will continue to be a part of KSC tradition. — Connie Lightner Far Upper Left: An APO Bombshell Lady.

Winter Commencement exercises kicked off the year's graduations. Winter Commencement was held Dec. 21, 1984, in Cushing Coliseum. The graduating class con- sisted of 334 students. The address was given by Dr. Joe Lutjeharms, commissioner of education. Winding up the year, 564 graduating students were presented diplomas at the 1985 Spring Commen- cement exercises, which were held May 10, 1985. The ceremonies were held at Foster Field with family, friends and faculty attending. The commen- cement address was given by Gover- nor Robert Kerrey. Other departments also had ceremonies at the conclusion of the year. ROTC commissioned eight students to second lieutenant on May 9. Students earn this award after completing four years of ROTC study. Some may go on to active duty in the Army. Speaker for the ceremonies was Col. Richard Benson, stationed at Fort Lewis, Wash. The nursing department would not be left out either. There were 21 graduating nurses pinned on May 9 at St. James Catholic Church. The pinning was done by family, friends, or faculty. The pin will be worn after graduation in their line of work as a symbol of completing nursing school. — Monica Williamson Right: A spring graduating sti ident receives congratulations and a har ldshake from Gov.

Strong Strong Academics face forward Academically, 1984 was quite eventful, both nationally and locally. At the head of the nation's academic community Secretary of Education, Terrel Bell resigned, while on the KSC campus a new Vice President on Academic Affairs Lon W. Weber was put into a comparable position. On the economic side of educa- tion, President Reagan decided to make cuts in financial aid programs designed for students in college. Two main programs planned for cuts were the Pell Grant and Guaranteed Student Loans. This would affect a majority of students enrolled at KSC who received some kind of financial aid. On the academic front there was a rise in Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) scores nationwide. This test was used to indicate how well students would perform while attending college. Educators reported an upturn in scores due in part to students growing up under different circumstances — more exposure to electronic media and long-range results from educa- tion. Perhaps society had become more interested in education. Nationally there was a renewed interest in the fundamentals of educa- tion, according to educators. There was a surge to get more humanities into college programs across the nation. This was a major concern for the National Endowment of Humani- ties. Their argument was the humani- ties had lost its place in the curriculum of colleges. They argued that students were just trying to get through a major and get a job after graduating from college; that students were bypassing important classes that were illuminat- ing culturally. The general studies program at KSC was well-rounded, covering a lot of subjects enlightening students to what was important from the past, present and in the future. Another issue, according to education researchers, was that colleges did not involve, nor keep, new students in the learning process. The problem cited was that faculty and students did not interact with each other on a one-to-one basis. Tackling the problem at KSC, administrators created a change of faculty-student relations. The College Community Relations Committee was developed to help students and faculty interact. The CCRC developed ideas. such as “take-a-faculty-member-to-lunch” and social events that let faculty members and students come together in a relaxed atmosphere. In 1984-85 the nation saw changes In academics. Though KSC was nestled in the heart of the Midwest, it kept pace with these changes. — Monica Williamson Academics School of Fine Arts Humanities Growth says it all for the School Dr. Betty Becker-Theye, dean of the School of Fine Arts and Humanities, is proud of “the high achievement levels of some of our students, and all the faculty being qualified, compe- tent and professional. Also for the very first time in the seventeen years I've been here, every program has a decent facility. The school had put on a new face with the renovated A. O, Thomas Building, Etetter yet, this was just the beginning of several plans for expansion and improvement within the school. Becker-Theye would like to see a larger faculty and equipment pur- chases. Some of this has been achieved, but Gary Schaaf, assistant speech professor and dance instruc- tor, explained there was still a great need for more faculty. Schaaf said, The institution is growing. We need to expand with it to accommodate this growth. New faces among the faculty included Kent Smith, commercial art graphic design instructor; Alan Kraning, assistant art professor; An- nabell Zikmund and Daviid Bauer, both assistant music professors; and Sylvie Moulin, assistant foreign language professor. Academic growth included a bachelor of arts degree in art history, and plans call for a degree in art therapy. All English and journalism majors were revised. A bachelor of fine arts degree in music theater was developed. More graduate organiza- tional communication courses were offered within the speech commun- ications department. KSC also offered a bachelor of arts degree in interna- tional studies. Becker-Theye said the curriculum for this degree is modeled around some of the best international studies programs in the country. Improvements and new equip- ment were made available to the school. In addition, the power of the college radio station was increased. Improvements in the journalism department included two new video display terminals. The Antelope was changed to a twice-weekly publica- tion. Jim Rundstrom, director of the journalism department, explained the newspaper now had its own typeset- ters and only actual printing was done at the Hub. The art department had a new stat camera and an artograph. Jack Karraker, chairman, said, “We are pouring most of our funds info graphics. We are just beginning to look into computer graphics, but that is still in an infant stage. Other plans within the School of Fine Arts and Humanities included purchasing new band uniforms as well as getting light and sound equipment for the Hostetler Ampitheater. There are ideas about enclosing the amphi- theater which will expand its use to classrooms and an experimental theater as well. Another renovation plan involved a new dance facility at Cushing Coliseum. Dance and physical education courses were both held in Copeland Hall. Schaaf explained, “Dance owes much to physical education, but it is an art form and it needs its separate facility, He hoped for complete and separate locker facilities and a small theater with adequate lighting and sound for informal productions. Becker-Theye called the year an exciting period of growth for the school. She said this was important because a background in the humani- ties would aid all students as they face the future. “In studying humanities you learn to interpret and assign values.

It involved a human factors major which has been in effect at KSC since the fall of 1982. Students with high math, computer science and science skills in general, made and continue to make excellent candidates for this new and growing major. Daryle Gardner, head of the human factors division, said KSC is the only psychology department in the country that has an undergraduate program in this area of expertise. Gardner was very proud of that fact. In explaining the human factors area of psychology, she said that it is a combination of psychology and technology. More specifically, it in- volved how a piece of equipment would work in relationship to how humans think. Gardner, Bill Wozniiak, and five KSC students; Mark Keith, Dave DeFruiter, Andy Aprill, Liwana Bringel- son and Kerri Bergskoog continued working throughout the year on a research project commissioned and paid for by the Boeing Military Airplane Company of Wichita, Kain. This project involved the steady work of the entire human factors division, which incorpor- ated testing and studies to be used in the development of a super helicopter Boeing planned to build. The specific research concerned certain helicopter functions that could be voice-controlled or activated. The research was to show which controls would function best with voice activa- tion, as well as a complementary study to determine how long it would take to train humans to use these voice-activated modes. Because of the way computers receive voice commands, humans would have to speak the same way for each command encoded in the computer. This would require training - one of the purposes of the research. Boeing funded approximately $20-25 thousand for the reserach project. They also loaned the psychology department a speech synthesizer-recognizer, which hooked up to a synthesizer computer for two-way communication. The computer functioned to compress speech — a very useful facet for pilots flying helicopters according to Gardner, A compressor was vital because pilots were over- loaded and overworked by things needing to be done while in flight. By using this speech compressor with an artificial speech pattern, the eventual time-saving device was concep- tualized. The research was and continued to be done within the labs and computer rooms in Founders Hall. It was begun in mid-May of '84 and was to be completed in December of '84, but due to a break down in the synthesizer a valuable month was lost. Gardner said that the project would expand into the spring semester of '85 and would probably be given a continuation grant for the following year. This was the second project that KSC's psychology department per- formed for Boeing. The first involved research for a visual display panel for the cockpit of fighter aircrafts.

It has helped the morale of the students, encouraged faculty and everyone has a better outlook on the school as a whole. Those were the words of a very proud and enthused. Gene Kopeke, Dean of the Business and Technology School. He was talking about one of the new faces at KSC, but most of all, a new face for the School of Business and Technology. If one took a tour of the old hospital on west campus that housed many classes last year, they would be amazed at the million-dollar success, and the biggest impact ever , according to Koepke. The new facade, carpet, paintings and mosaic designs have beautified the building; the new micro processor and com- puter lab rooms would come to benefit many students. Koepke said the renewing of the Masters Degree in Business Administra- tion was another new face within the School of Business. In 1978 KSC was limited in offering the MBA to its students. Now a student can major in Business Education and also major in Administration; an option that was once only possible through the univer- sities. Koepke believes that KSC is comparable to the universities today, especially considering all the new additions, advanced equipment and courses being offered to students. Some of the new additions of the state-funded project were the com- pletion of 11 new classrooms and offices. Central heating and air conditioning was included. An eleva- tor was installed to facilitate the use of other floors, which include class- rooms on the second floor and a future planned project of a sup- plemental student union, eventually to be located on the fourth floor, within the next few years. No new classroom materials were added, although the Business Depart- ment received new IBM computers. These were funded through a $1 surcharge on student tuition fees. Along with the internal revamp- ing, external changes were made as well. Three entry ways were altered to provide access to the building on the northeast, northwest and southwest sides. A 10 to 15-foot covered archway entrance was also incorpor- ated into the northeast entry. Sidewalk construction included a walk between the Ockinga Center and the northeast door with lighting along the walk between the two buildings. Centralization of the Business Department would come to facilitate better coordination between faculty and students, said Sam Reno of the Business Department, It allowed better grouping as far as office requirements were concerned for the business staff. Centralization would also alleviate student congestion and provide for growth potential within the depart- ment. Reno felt that KSC was and is typical of any college that is growing. He projected that as the campus expands, the space between the Coliseum and West Campus would come together and become one campus, uniting the now-separate campuses. In the meantime, such things as the proposed supplement to the student union would aid in providing West Campus students with a feeling of being part of a unified college campus and what a new face that would be! — Barbara Sheldon Business Economics Home Economics Industrial Education Military Science Safety Center Vocational Education Graduate Majors — Female Male 97 71 Undergraduates— Female Male 960 1043 ‘Statistics may vary within schools Above: Classmates discuss a refinlshlng project in Home Economics class.

Many still consider KSC a college with a strong teacher training reputation. By and large the School of Education has been responsible for this with a large portion of its students education majors. Dr, Leonard Skov, dean of the School of Education, said he was most proud of “the tremendous faculty, who were recognized (by the teach- ing profession) away from campus more than on, and the capable student body in education, The students are more serious now than ever before. Academically, there was much activity within the school involving new majors and graduate programs. The special education department started two new programs: one for mildly and moderately handicapped persons and one for the severely and profoundly handicapped. The educa- tional administration department added a specialist degree endor- sement in kindergarten-12 principle- ship. In addition, the counseling and educational psychology department introduced a specialist degree in counseling. The physical education depart- ment was not to be left out in changes and improvements. It added a graduate program in track and exercise science, as well as a strength endorsement program. Elementary education department officials were also excited about the quantum program developed by Dr. Lynn Johnson, This program was designed for Kearney-area schools to tap into a KSC computer to get a list of teaching objectives to teach their students basic learning skills. This program would aid learning activities on the elementary level in the area, according to Ed Walker. Computers also made a large contribution within the different schools of education. A consensus of department heads agreed that com- puters were very useful in teaching students. There was a lot of activity in the student teaching department, ac- cording to Dr. F. M. Shada. A meeting for the Association of Teacher Educa- tors took place in April and included participants from 10 states. Another big success this year was the Houston Transfer. This program involved KSC student teachers who were put into the Houston, Texas, school environ- ment to complete student teaching assignments. Students were also sent to other states to do student teach- ing. The student teaching assignments did not stop at the national level in 1984-85 however. A KSC student taught in Saudi Arabia at an American-attended school, and next year, if things go according to plan, one KSC student would teach in Australia. Another facet of the school's movement has been the research taking place, A study was done on the mobility of teachers in Nebraska. The study investigated what kinds of situations affect teacher mobility. One of the things learned was that there is a high level of teacher dropouts, and the researchers are trying to find out the reasons for this so that they can prevent teacher dropouts in the future. The KSC School of Education is facing the future. “The next eight to 10 years will be fun. There will be a precise educational curriculum, Skov noted. He explained there will be computer-managed instruction and administrative technology to aid in teaching, monitoring and evaluating student effectiveness. There will be an emphasis in the school to reinforce, or to work on, student weaknesses. After ali, KSC has an excellently-trained teacher's reputation to maintain. — Monica Williamson Counseling and Education Psychology Educational Administration Elementary Education Physical Education Special Education Student Teaching Graduate Majors — Female Male 389 87 Undergraduates — Female Male 645 162 Strong orrony DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION • Front row - Tom Kropp, Robert Hauver, Jane Moorhouse.

The college is very mature in some ways, and awkward and still growing in others, said Dr. Robert Sessions, dean of the Graduate School. Just as a teenager faces the future with hopes for new and better things, so is this college. I would like the school to do an even better job with what we're already doing, Sessions replied when asked what he hopes for the future. He would also like to see master of science and master of art degrees offered in addition to the master of business administration and master of art and science degrees in education. The school included a new master of business administrafion degree this year, In addition, a number of programs in other departments were being refined. Sessions described this process as adding, changing or discontinuing courses to get the program a little better every time. He further explained, Almost every graduate program is continually refin- ing itself. The programs must respond to the needs of students and what the faculty feels changing times call for. Sessions is proud of the quality of the graudate school faculty, consider- ing the limited monetary resources. He continued by saying that with unlimit- ed funds the school could be much better. This was Sessions' first year as dean of the Graduate School. He studied at Brown University and Dartmouth College where he was in Naval officer training programs before joining the Navy for 2 V2 years. He received his bachelor degree in English and masters degree in theological studies from Southern Methodist University. At Boston University he received a doctorate in sociology of religion and social ethics. After teach- ing at a private college in West Virginia, he became the sociology and anthropology department chair- man at East Tennessee State Universi- ty for 10 V2 years. This was followed by 3 V2 years as president of Southwest College in Kansas before he accept- ed the position as dean at KSC. Sessions has four daughters. He enjoys all sports, and he and his wife participate in the college fitness program. It's pretty hard to roll out of bed early in the morning three times a week, but the work-out feels good! grinned Sessions. — Connie Lightrier Right: Senior speaker James Niemeier exclaims, We made it, at the December graduation ceremony.

Wander down his cellar stairs and you might find yourself caught in the middle of a Napoleonic melee. Humphries, technical director at KSC, not only designs and builds sets for college theater productions, he also commands battalions of miniature French soldiers. “This is why I'm such a happy guy, Humphries said while pointing at the thousands under his command. “It's really the combination of three hobbies that I have an interest in: painting metal figures, playing war games and building things (sets), he added. In 1978, while a graduate student in Moscow, Idaho, Humphries became hooked on miniature war gaming. Since arriving in Kearney in 1980, he has collected 2,500 miniature soldiers. Humphries explained war gaming is a complicated, expensive and time-consuming hobby. He takes hours to paint the intricate detail on the tiny 25 millimeter models, he says. Humphries tries to make his figures as historically accurate as possible by referring to textbooks and historical documents. In explaining how war gaming works, he said players try to recreate all parameters of an actual battle with dice determining the random element of the game. The hobby of war gaming entails three general areas, Humphries said. There is the manufacturing and collecting of figures; which are some- times purchased and sometimes cast by the hobbyist. A second area involves the painting of these figures and playing the actual game. “You can be a collector, creator or both, said Humphries. A third facet of the hobby is the historical research, which provides the information for success- fully playing the game. “History is just full of little things, Humphries noted. The degree of historical expertise added to the random element of throwing “hot dice adds up to make war gaming an enthralling hobby for Humphries. Humphries said he's just getting started with war gaming. “My mind boggles when I consider how many (figures) I'll have by the time I retire, he said. — Lorna MacGregor and Marsha Kaiser Sheffield foresees robots as teaching tool Some people might not draw any connection between robots and crafts. But Dr. Everett Sheffield, a professor of industrial education at KSC, has made the correlation. Sheffield said people need to approach robotics and high tech- nology in general, with a concept he called “high-touch. Sheffield ex- plained some people in this highly technical world feel a loss of personal identification with their job, to the point that they find less personal meaning or satisfaction. He said that people need to find “a balance between high technology and the need for personal satisfaction. Ac- cording to Sheffield one way to do this is through crafts. This allows the individual to take part in an activity from its conception to its completion — a feeling of accomplishment often missing in a highly technical industry. He taught 12 different types of crafts in his classes during the 1984-85 school year. These included leathercraft, basket weaving and sculpture. He saw this as being a step towards his concept of “high-touch. Sheffield said he was keenly aware that students in the industrial arts department, whether they be in teaching or management, needed to keep in touch with the industrial robotics industry. The world of industry is changing and industrial robots are a large part of it. Industrial robots, he said, are important in their ability to take on a repetitive task that requires a high degree of accuracy. His goal has been to interpret the impact of high technology and robotics as it Cupp remembers World War II This year marked the 40th an- niversary of VE Day — a day of victory that brought an end to World War II in Europe for Americans. On KSC's campus more than 20 faculty members had personal cause to remember and celebrate the anniversary. They all participated in the war effort as members of the armed forces. For Sociology Professor William Cupp, VE Day is a celebration that elicits memories of the time his plane was shot down over German- occupied France. I remember the pilot fighting so hard to keep the plane in the air that he had sweat right through his thick leather flight jacket, said Cupp, as he recalled the events that would propel him from his position as a ball turret gunner in a B24, to parachute into the French countryside. Once on the ground, Cupp and two crew members were hidden by French farmers until the underground movement could find a safe house for them. Cupp recalled how they were at first hidden in a camouflaged haystack before being taken in- dividually to the farm homes where they would continue to hide for the next month. When German patrols increased searching missions for downed airmen Cupp and his co-crew member, the navigator, decided to leave the safety of the farmer's homes and attempt to walk until they reached friendly troops. The pair avoided capture several days, but just as they were within sight of American troops, they stumbled into a motley bunch of retreating German soldiers, Cupp said. Cap- tured, for days the entire group was under shell-fire from the advancing Americans. After two weeks of retreating, Cupp and the navigator were finally well enough behind German lines that they were assimilated into the main- stream of prisoners-of-war. After many moves, they finally ended their journey at a prison camp located near the border of Poland and Germany. Cupp was to remain there four and a half months before being released. Cupp perceived the prison camp as being organized, in addition to offering little to eat and little room to sleep. The 25 men confined in each room could only find room to lie on their sides as they slept. We wouldn't have fit if we'd turned on our backs, Cupp remembered. After his release from prison, Cupp traveled to La Harve, France. In a small village just outside the city Cupp and a friend celebrated VE Day by attending a rustic, local circus. It (the circus) was terrible, but we didn't care 'Cupp said. All that was important was the delight of celebrating the end of the war. With many harrowing experiences to recall and remember on an anniversary such as VE Day, Cupp chose to reflect upon the positive aspects. People came together and united in a common cause, according to Cupp. A wonderful generosity came from many people, Cupp said. A more noble objective became the daily work. — Marsha Kaiser relates to KSC's roll in teaching industrial arts. He planned on acquiring an industrial robot through a proposal for an equipment grant. The proposed grant would allow the department to purchase a full scale industrial robot large enough to demonstrate actual manufacturing procedures. Sheffield said the industrial robot could be used in conjunction with current industrial arts classes, empha- sizing the application of robots to that paticular class's interests. He foresaw this move to robotics as being supplemental to current departmental courses and not as a separate course of action. Sheffield said United States in- dustry was changing, and as a result, the educational requirements for those entering industry were changing also. He hoped KSC would have a place in that objective. In the near future, Sheffield said he would keep teaching crafts, his concept of high touch, while trying to move the department closer to robotics. — Joel Lau 57 Administration At KSC, administrators keep facing forward Fall of 1984 kicked off Dr. William R. Nester's second year as president. Nester and vice presidents: Earl Rademacher - administration plan- ning, Kurt Hofmann - student services and Lon Weber- academic affairs, had overseen a progressive year for KSC. In speaking about the college, Nester said a long range planning program went into effect this year. Of this plan, improving the physical aspects of the college� had a high priority. The A.O. Thomas Building was renovated; the old Administration building was torn down in July, 1984, and the west center was in the process of renovation. In addition, the campus was beautified via a new mall west of Founder's Hall where the AD. Building used to be. Nester expressed a hope to continually improve the physical plant of the college. According to Nester, future plans called for a $10 million development project for Cushing Coliseum, The coliseum would then better accom- modate women's athletics, intramur- als and furnish a multi-purpose dance facility. In addition, the library would receive increased funding for books, staffing and maintenance. Also, plans called for the contribution of a set of bells for the mall. Academic improvements on campus were underway as well. Four full-time and one part-time faculty positions were approved, Nester and the Board of Trustees requested the addition of 37 new faculty members over the next three years in order to achieve a lower and more competi- tive student-to-faculty ratio. The Board of Trustees also pushed for 13 new faculty for the 1985-86 year, but Gov. Bob Kerrey recommended just two new positions. A big question raised by many people this year was whether KSC would become part of the university system. The current political process may not bring about the consolidation of the state college and university systems. Right now, it does not appear to be a high priority with state senators, who are the ultimate deci- sion makers, Nester said. He further explained, They don't know what to do with us. With 8,392 students, we are larger than some universities. With the diversity of our programs, the graduate programs we have and the number of students we have, it is deceptive that we're called a state college. Nester explained the university status has prompted people to think about it. This will bring about sufficient pressure from alumni, and citizens who feel it's been delayed, that KSC be called a university. If Kearney State were called a university, we would receive a greater number of federal grants and people's perceptions (about the college) could change. Also, if there were a coordi- nated system, the decision makers would recognize that we (KSC) are in need of the greatest fiscal help. Gov. Kerrey proposed a tuition raise in his budget recommendations for fiscal year 1985-86. Nester noted this increase in tuition, if passed, would help meet the rising costs of running a college. Addressing other campus issues, Nester gave an explanation for the eliminated fall break and shortened Christmas vacation. One more day had to be added to the fall semester so KSC would meet accreditation standards. Consequently, both days for fall break were taken away and one day was added to Thanksgiving vacation. Christmas break was short- ened due to complaints that the previous Christmas vacation had been too long and boring. Nester said, This will benefit students because school will be getting out one week earlier in May. When asked what makes KSC unique, Nester pointed to the quality faculty who were interested in the students. It was also likely for students to have full professors at freshman and sophomore levels. The students are nifty. Nester summarized, They are positive and care about their educa- tion and each other. They're a good group. — Connie Lightner and Monica Williamson Kennedy Kennedy Above: President Nester shows yearbook reporters Connie Lightner and Monica Williamson a picture of the carillon that will be donated to KSC. Lower left, middle, and right: President Nester, an animated speaker, discusses campus issues during an interview. Kennedy Faces in sports The year 1984-85 brought numer- ous triumphs to the athletic world. A great deal of emphasis was placed on the 23rd Olympiad, held during the summer in Los Angeles, The United States' team proved its athletic ability by winning more medals than any other country entered. Gymnast Mary Lou Retton cap- tured the hearts of many Americans after scoring several perfect 10s which won her the gold medal in the all-around competition. Mary Lou was the first United States woman gymnast to ever win an Olympic gold medal. Elsewhere in Olympic activity, runner Edwin Moses proved that hard work and perseverance could make a dream come true. Moses won the gold in the 400 meter hurdles in record time. In other sports there was also attention on football. Boston College quarterback, Doug Flutie won the 50th Heisman Trophy and set a National Collegiate Athletic Association record for passing yards. Pro-football competition ended with its traditional Super Bowl, with the San Francisco 49'ers upsetting the Miami Dolphins 36-16. Locally in football, Kearney's Lopers ended the season with a record of 6 and 4. The Lopers fought hard and became the Central States Intercollegiate Conference champs. KSC also had a few of its own superstars. Jon Gustafson, a defensive end, was named NAIA All-American. Roger Suelter, Brett Lind and Joe Bachmann received All-American honorable mentions. The KSC volleyball team finished a tough season by placing in Nationals. Overall, the Lady Lopers had a victorious season by winning confer- ence, as well as district and regional competitions. The great American game of baseball continued to bring exci- tement to the sports world. The Chicago Cubs awed the public with their comeback after many seasons on a losing streak, while the Detroit Tigers wound up a super season by winning the World Series, In basketball the '84 champions, the Boston Celtics, had to go all seven play-off games before clinching their win over the Los Angeles Lakers, and they would be favored to take the title in the spring of '85. From the Olympics, to the Super- bowl and even a little closer to home at KSC, 1984-85 brought excitement, triumphs and challenge to the sports world. — Mary Ann Kill 61 Football Loper’s gridiron comeback yields 75h CSIC crown The Kearney State football team bounced back from an 0-3 start to win the Central States Intercollegiate Conference championship. It was the seventh time the Lopers have won the conference crown, since its inception, eight years ago, After losing to NAIA top ranked East Central Oklahoma; the University of Nebraska at Omaha, ranked second in NCAA Division II; and the 17th NAIA ranked Moorhead State Dragons, the Lopers went 6-1 for the rest of the season. A win over Wayne State in the season finale gave them sole possession of the CSIC champion- ship. The most positive aspect of our season was that our kids never gave up, they kept fighting, said Head Coach Claire Boroff. The Antelopes began their win- ning ways in the fourth game, defeating eighth ranked Fort Hays State, 47-14, in the conference opener. The Lopers continued to dominate late season opponents outscoring the opposition. 212-63, in their last seven games. The only blemish of their second season was a 10-9 loss, coming on a last-minute field goal by Pittsburg State. Running backs Roger Suelter and Emmet Cox gave the Lopers a one-two punch ground game, running through their opponents for a com- bined 1,934 yards. Suelter, an Albion senior, finished second in the confer- ence, rushing for 1,132 yards for a 6.7 yard average. Cox tallied 802 yards for a 5.9 yard average. The Lopers also damaged oppon- ents on specialty teams. Nelson sophomore Ted Murray led the confer- ence in kickoff and punt returns averaging 28 and 11.9 yards, respec- tively. Murray was also one of eight KSC players who earned places on the AII-CSIC football squad. Jon Gustaf- son, Suelter and Burt Muehling were repeat selections for CSIC honors. Muehling, moved to split end for his senior season, after being an NAIA All-American last year at tight end. Joe Bachman, Wally Dalrymple, Troy Stonacek and Brett Lind were also awarded all-conference status. Lind, a junior from Albion, led the team defensively with eight intercep- tions. — Bob Rush Opposite page: Ted Murray, a Nelson sophomore, works overtime running back kickoffs and (below) together with team- mate Matt Fisher, preventing opponents from doing the same.

The Kearney State volleyball team won the Nebraska Athletic Conference championship and the District 11 title on their way to St. Joseph, Mo. and the National Associa- tion of Intercollegiate Athletics Nation- al Tournament. The Lady Lopers spent late November at the national tour- nament for the fourth time in five years. However, the team failed to reach the double elimination round at nationals, dropping two of three games in the first round of pool play. The Lady Lopers were defeated by Montavello of Alabama and Brigham Young of Hawaii, but came back to defeat Alderson Broadeus College of West Virginia. Only the top two teams of pool play advance into double elimination play. The Lady Lopers reached national competition by shutting out Hastings College and The College of St. Mary's, giving them the District 11 title. The team then defeated May ville, N.D., 15-9, 15-6, 2-15, 9-15, 18-16, in the bi-district playoff. Five letterwinners returned to this year's team including Linda Loschen, Tammy Barth, Shari Schwede, Susie Arkfeld and Kathy Heimann. The team finished the regular season at 19-10 and wound up 27-12-1 after post-season competi- tion. Tammy Barth led the team in games, kills and blocks. Linda Loschen led the Lady Lopers in serves and digs. — Bob Rush Above: Shari Schwede and Tammy Barth prepare to return the opponent's serve.

The men's top runner, Dale Mackel, was hurt until two weeks before districts, Mackel went on to place third at districts, helping Kear- ney to a third place team finish, and qualifying him for Nationals. We didn't have our whole team together until districts, men's coach Bob Hauver said, and then we didn't have any experience running together. The women's top two runners. Barb Herbek and Jana Holmes, qualified for Nationals, although Her- bek was unable to participate due to illness. The women's team finished third at districts also. “I guess I'd have to say I was satisfied with the season, women's coach Mary Iten said. Only three of the eight girls out for the sport were true distant runners, the others were mainly out to stay in shape for track.

Men's basketball Eight straight at NAIA for winning KSC Lopers The KSC men's basketball team bounced back from a 2-5 start to finish the year with a 21-11 record, earning them the District 11 title and their eighth straight trip to the National Basketball Tournament in Kansas City, Mo. The eight consecutive appear- ances in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics National Tour- nament is only one shy of Central Washington's national record of nine straight appearances. To come back and play well and make it to Kansas City for the eighth straight year was the most positive aspect of our season for me, said Head Coach Jerry Hueser. The Loper's bid for a national championship was ended in the first round by Southeastern Oklahoma, who downed the Antelopes 70-67. DeWitt senior, Jon Bergmeier, led the team in scoring with a 20.5 points=per=game average, which was good enough to earn him Third Team All-American honors. Bergmeier was also named to the Academic All-American team. The Antelopes strong finish propelled them to the Nebraska Athletic Conference Championship. The Lopers finished third in the Central States Intercollegiate Conference, behind Washburn University and two- time National Champion, Fort Hayes State. “We depended on our six seniors early in the year and they came through for us, said Hueser. As the season went on, the younger guys improved and won some ball games for us. Hueser also commented that he was pleased with the off-court performance of his six seniors. Berg- meier, Brian Anderson, Dana Falter, Kip Kircher, Kirk Shuck and Mike Sjuts all maintained high academic standards, in spite of the time demands which playing varsity basketball demands, according to Hueser. Shuck also qualified for Academic All-American honors. — Bob Rush and Dan Fong Upper right: Jon Bergmeier, the Lopers leading scorer, shoots for two in Kansas City.

The team's finish, which was the best since 1980, was attributed by Head Coach Dan Wurtz to the girls play on the road. “Although there were some close games we could have won, we did play very well on the road, said Wurtz. “Everyone had a positive attitude. It was really a smooth year for me, he added. The Lady Lopers finished their season with an 111-point loss to Midland Lutheran College in the District 11 Championship, denying the women a trip to the National Tour- nament. Midland went on to place fourth in the tournament. “I think we will be a better ball club next year, said Wurtz. “We should be quicker and will have a little more experience. Beth Carlson, the Lady Lopers leading scorer, and Karen Gerdes were the only seniors on the team, which will return 13 letterwinners next season. Carlson averaged 13 points per game and was named to the District 11 All-Star team. Carlson and Long Island, Kan., sophomore Laneil Cox, were also named to the All-District team. Cox, paced the Lady Lopers with 74 assists and also averaged 10.5 points per game. — Bob Rush Above: A Lady Loper ed against Hastings, herself surround- Top right: Colleen Regan drives for a lay-up against Chadron State.

Freshman Steve Roberts, soph- omores Dick Thomas, Tom Frye and Rod Tickle, Junior Shad Carpenter, and Senior Dave Kotalik all qualified for the competition held in Jamestown, N.D. Tickle, Thomas, and Carpenter were forced from competition after suffering injuries. Four of our guys were hurt when they went to the meet, head coach Jack Ramey said, I think we would have had a good shot at finishing in the top 20. All it would have taken is to win another match here or there, but those guys just couldn't go on when they got hurt. Tickle, an All-American in the heavyweight division, did place sixth even with the withdrawal. Overall, I would have to say I was pleased with the season, considering all the injuries we had, Ramey said. We ended up only two and a half points out of first place in our four-state area. — Dan Fong Upper right: Working for the pin is 190 lbs. Senior Dave Kotalik.

The quartet broke KSC records in the 200-yard free relay, 400-yard medley and fhe 400-yard free relay. The women also earned a 10th and two 11th place finishes at the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics Swimming and Diving Championships, February 29 - March 2, at Indianapolis, Ind. The Lady Lopers finished 18th out of a field of 31 teams and ended the year with a 6-5 dual record. The four women were also named to the National Coaching Associa- tion's All-American team. Those four really swam spec- tacularly at nationals, said Coach Joan Bailey. The most pleasing aspect of the season, according to Bailey, was the improvement the entire team showed throughout the year. Everybody had a lot of fun and maintained a great, positive atti- tude, added Bailey. Wilcox and Becker were also named to the Academic All-American team. — Bob Rush Women's Swimming (6 - 5) KSC OPP 39 University of South Dakota 81 86 Concordia College 51 43 University of South Dakota 87 60 South Dakota State 67 69 Regis College 43 51 UN-Omaha 62 92 Concordia College 45 63 Regis College 50 69 Western State College 51 57 University of Denver 56 49 Air Force Academy 72 Top right: Two KSC swimmers get off to a fast start against Concordia.

Ex-pros hear KSC’s coaching call Two ex-professional athletes came back to KSC to help coach basketball and baseball, Tom Kropp, a 1975 KSC graduate, was an assistant basketball coach, and Mike Keehn, a senior student, was assisting in base- ball. Kropp, an Aurora native, played football and basketball at KSC from 1971-75. He was an academic All- American in both sports during his junior and senior years, and was a first team All-American in both sports his Tom Kropp senior year. I wanted to graduate in four years because I knew I wanted to play pro ball somewhere - either football or basketball, Kropp said. As a senior, Kropp was drafted in the eighth round of the National Football League by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the third round of the American Basketball Association by the Denver Nuggets, and in the third round of the National Basketball Association by the Washington Bullets. Kropp chose to sign with the Bullets. “The thing I remember about the NBA is the quality of players, Kropp said. “It was a huge jump from where I had been. The players were so much bigger, stronger and quicker. Kropp played for a year with the Bullets, and the next season with the Chicago Bulls. A year later he was released and came back to Kearney to attend graduate school. In 1978, Kropp went to Belgium and played basketball four seasons. Kropp now teaches physical education at KSC, and besides helping coach basketball, is also an assistant track coach. Although he has been offered head basketball coach- ing duties at various colleges, Kropp had no desire to leave Kearney. “When I was playing pro ball I had offers to be an assistant at some major colleges, but I really didn't want that. I came back to Kearney because of an admiration for the administration and I wanted to be part of it. I really have no plans to go anywhere else. The quality of kids at Kearney just can't be matched. The baseball team also has an assistant coach that has played professionally. Mike Keehn played baseball at KSC from 1981-83. As a second baseman, the Kearney native was named to the Central States Intercollegiate Conference team as a sophomore and junior. As a junior, Keehn was also named District 11's Most Valuable Player, and was an honorable mention All-American. After being chosen by the Texas Rangers organization, Keehn chose to forego his senior year of school and played for the Ranger's class A ball club in Richland, Washington. He played for one year. Like Kropp, Keehn commented on the big change from NAIA ball to pro ball, “The pitching was much better, and of course I had to switch to wooden bats, which wasn't easy for me. The play was so much faster, since most of those guys had played for schools known for great baseball programs, like Arizona State and Stanford. Keehn also added, “Most people complain about the traveling, but I really didn't mind it. We'd play everyday though, so at times I did get pretty tired. Although the pro career was cut short, Keehn came back to Kearney with many good memories. “The ballparks at that level are great to be around. They don't always have real big crowds, so they do a lot of promotional things like concerts and having the San Diego chicken show up. Now finishing school, Keehn will graduate in the fall of 1985 with teaching endorsements in physical education and business, and will also have a coaching endorsement, “I'd like to teach down south so I can get started in a good high school baseball program, Keehn said. “That's my main goal right now. — Dan Fong Mike Keehn 83 Men's track iHi I Strong start marks year Dan Gushard finished the Lopers indoor track season with a third place finish in the shot put at the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics Tournament at Kansas City, Mo. Gushard's performance earned him a place on the All-American team and qualified him for the national tour- nament in outdoor competition. I have been happy with all the qualifiers, particularly with Dan, said Head Coach Bob Hauver. The Loper tracksters started the season strong by winning their first two meets at KSC by 56 and 53 points respectively. The fast start enabled the team to post five early qualifiers, including Noel Taylor in the sprints, Mike Hamm in the steeple chase, Brian Lange in the high jump. Dean Brittenham in the decathalon and Gushard in the shot put and discus, Hauver also commented that he was happy with the team's perfor- mance, but added that the graduat- ing seniors will be sorely missed. — Bob Rush Above Right: Dan Gushard lets go with his throw in the shotput.

The women finished first in all the meets, at which team scores were compiled. Beth Stuart, who won the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics outdoor title last year, also finished first at the indoor meet in February with a throw of 47 feet. Barb Herbek, Becky Edgreen and Lora Bolte also placed at the national tournament a year ago, earning them All-American honors. “Those All-Americans have really performed well, said Coach Mary Iten. Iten also cited the performance of distance runner. Barb Herbek as a positive aspect of the 1985 season. Herbek broke the KSC record in the 1,500 and 3,000 meteor races. Herbek also bettered her own record - setting performance in each of the two races, according to Iten. The KSC women also dominated the Kearney State Invitational for the second straight year, claiming six titles, including a dual win in the shot put and discus, by Stuart. Bolte and Stuart earned Academic All-American honors, Her- bek and Christie Eitzmann also qualified for the Academic All- American team. — Bob Rush Above Right: Barb Herbek gets a quick start at the KSC Invitational.

KSC ■ 9 turn season around The KSC baseball team started the season slowly with a 1-16 record following the annual southern trip. They turned things around back in Nebraska and ended up with a winning record; going on to win the District 11 championship. Although the southern trip consists of many NCAA division 1 schools, head coach Guy Murray noted, We like to go down and play those teams because of the good competition, and because we can get the season started by the last of February. Another thing is that they help us out with room and board, so when we play teams in the Big Eight or Southwestern conferences, it's really Left: Blake Mahnke, one of the top Loper pitchers, throws a couple of innings in a game at Memorial Field. not too expensive of a trip. After coming back to Nebraska and playing conference teams, the Lopers were, at one time, 17-3. Kearney won the District 11 cham- pionship, but was defeated by Empor- ia State in the NAIA Area Three Tournament. Murray also added, This is one of the best teams I have ever coached. Kearney State landed seven players on the NAIA All-District 11 team. Players were: third baseman Scott Cruickshank, infielder Jeff Alfrey, outfielders Larry Speicher and Bill Welsh, designated hitter Scott Wilson, and pitchers Tim Van Cleve and Rick Koepke. Catcher Todd Johnson, pitchers Gregg Kay and Brian Delaine, and infielder Tim Miller gained honor- able mention. — Dan Fong KSC BASEBALL TEAM • Front row • Assistant Coach Mike Keehn. Pick Koepke.

Softball Lopers 8th at Nationals The KSC Softball team capped the season by winning the District 11 Conference championship. They went on to tie for eighth place at the national tournament held in Indian- apolis, The Lady Lopers lost to the host team, Indianapolis University - Perdu University - Indianapolis, 12-6. I had no idea we'd be this good, Head Coach Brad Horky said. “We were real inexperienced at our key positions, like shortshop and pitching. With only three starters back from last season, the younger players played a major role in this year's success. The young players, coming on was the real key, Horky said. “Phyllis Debuhr pitched great for us all year, and she's only a freshman. Going into districts she had an ERA of only 1.35, Dubuhr, along with third baseman LaNell Cox, was named to the first team of the Central States Intercol- legiate Conference All-Conference team.

It was tough to achieve, Head Coach Mark Forrester said. “We had to have a unified effort. The men finished 5-9, but several losses were to NCAA schools. “We set team goals as well as individual goals, then work toward improvement. Forrester said. “All of the guys have done consistently well. The women ended with a 10-4 record. Forrester added, Most everyone played up to his or her ability.

Bienhoff posted a 76 in the opening round and ended with a 75, for a two-day total of 151, earning him fourth place for the tournament. Only members of the district championship team and the top medalist qualify for the national meet, According to Head Coach Jerry Hueser, Bienhoff was the Lopers most consistent golfer this season. “Randy finished in the top four or five most of the time, added Hueser.

Balancing act creates All-Americans When KSC athletes sign up for college sports, they might not have realized that along with their daily stretching exercises, they'd have to practice the art of juggling as well. Training for each season takes time and hard work, not to mention trying to balance practice sessions with attending classes and studying — it can turn into a real juggling act. According to KSC coaches, the Lopers are lucky to have several talented athletes who've learned to juggle their busy schedules and still maintain high classroom grades. These outstanding athletes were chosen as Academic All-Americans. An Academic All-American is a student who must be a starter for a varsity sport, plus maintain a 3.5 grade point average, according to sports information director, Don Briggs. These students are nominated by their coaches and judged by a committee of other coaches from across the nation. This year basketball players, Kirk Shuck and Jon Bergmeier were just two of KSC's 12 Academic All- American nominees. Both Shuck and Bergmeier were starters for the Loper team and each maintained a 3.5 GPA. School, along with performing well on the team, was very important to both athletes, but combining both wasn't always easy. It's difficult, especially when you're traveling, You've got to really set time aside to study. My days are real busy during basketball; they're all chopped up because you go from class to class, then to practice, then studying and that's it. On nights when there is a game it's worse, because I might not have time to study until real late at night , said Bergmeier, a KSC senior. Missing classes can make it really tough, according to Kirk Shuck, another KSC senior. It hasn't been too bad though, teachers were pretty understanding. Earning Academic All-American status takes a lot of hard work, but both Shuck and Bergmeier seemed to feel that it was worth it. It really is an honor. It means a lot to me to do well in my studies, as well as for the team, said Shuck. Sometimes you feel like it's never going to end — missing classes two or three times a week and having to study on the road, makes it real hard to keep up. All the work pays off in the end because it's very rewarding , said Bergmeier. Selecting athletes for Academic All-American honors is not an easy job for individual team coaches. “It is very competitive. All schools in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletes (NAIA) participate, said Shuck. According to basketball coach Jerry Hueser. We pick who we feel are players that have the best chance of making it. It's not an easy decision. Staying on top in both school work and athletics requires the dexterity of a juggler, as these two KSC athletes have experienced. Being chosen All-American's however, has shown that these two athletes successfully added juggling to their other talents. — Mary Ann Kill Kirk Shuck and Jon Bergmeier successfully juggle academics and athletics. Shuck and Bergmeier — both Academic All-American nominees. 95 Intramurals Competition’s the by- word The 39-year-old tradition of in- tramurals at KSC was given some new looks by first-year director, Kevin O'Connor. The program was expand- ed to get the maximum number of students participating, according to O'Connor. The department reinstated the Leland Copeland Award, honoring participants displaying excellence in participation and sportsmanship, in the tradition of the late Leland Copeland, who founded the intramural depart- ment at KSC in 1946. O'Connor also instituted five- on-five basketball and started an Intramural Council. The council was established to improve communica- tions between the department and students and will be represented each year by all fraternities and sororities, as well as dormitories. Our program is designed to provide a variety of activities for people to be competitive in. Those who might not be able to get involved in varsity athletics, otherwise, O'Con- nor said. We would like to provide the opportunity for freshmen to get involved and meet other people, he added. The Gut Busters dethroned the Gat Facs as flag football champions, after upsetting the previously un- defeated Mopheads and Phi Delt Blacks in finals. TNDHO won mud volleyball and the Phi Delt Blacks repeated as indoor volleyball champs, Other events offered this year included: tennis, swimming, four- on-four basketball, turkey trot, water polo, wrestling, archery, softball, golf and track. Participation numbers were up for the year and supervisors Bob Jones, Tom Sneckenberg, Bob McDonald and Doug Moran did a good job in keeping the expanding program running smoothly, according to O'Connor. — Bob Rush and Dan Fong Upper Right: Men and women alike enjoyed the summertime fun of mud volleyball.

Many provided experience in group participation — experience many would find useful after gradua- tion. While KSC groups faced the needs of members, national ones pulled together to achieve goals. Mothers Against Drunk Drivers (MADD), which started with one woman, successfully lobbied in numer- ous states for an increase in the legal drinking age, as well as pushed for stiffer penalties for drunk drivers. MADD brought the message to Americans of how dangerous it was to drink and drive. Anti-nuclear groups were less defined in structure, but not in belief in their cause. Protest rallies were frequent in the United States, and in Europe large crowds gathered to protest the American placement of nuclear weapons within their coun- tries. As a nation, we also did our quadrennial political split, Democrats and Republicans bolstered their can- didates to reach the November conclusion of re-electing Republican President Ronald Reagan. Voters also established a Republican majority in the Senate and counterbalanced the legislative power by electing a Democratic-controlled House. While the hoopla of elections went with the falling of leaves, a Chicago teacher's union still had members out on strike, which extend- ed summer vacation for students in that metropolitan area. As the farm economy worsened, farmers began to form into groups as well. In January, farmers from across the nation joined to picket the commodities market in protest of low farm prices. While our nation's farmers were hard-pressed. African farmers had nothing to farm. A severe drought brought famine to Ethiopia and many other African nations. As public awareness of the devastation in- creased, the starvation of thousands continued. Groups like CARE, the American Red Cross and the Catholic Relief Organization mounted a fierce campaign to get food and ciothing to the starving. Their efforts often hampered by political strife within Ethiopia. No matter what the interest there was a group that filled the need. As social beings, we worked best when we did it together. In college we applied this philosophy through par- ticipation in organizations. It was good practice for all we would face in the future. — Marsha Kaiser Organizations Activities provide an added spark Students entered KSC with ex- pectations of learning, changing and growing. The common goal was to lay a foundation on which to build the rest of their lives. Extra-curricular ac- tivities on campus provided building blocks. Students sought out a variety of ways in which to face forward, using spare time to become involved in a wide range of activities. They dis- covered that it was a good feeling to belong to a group and share interests. With approximately 85 campus and 13 Greek organizations at KCS, there was a specific interest for everyone. From theater to biology, music to math, there was an organiza- tion to fill the need. Six religious organizations met the needs of campus while 11 residence-governing groups made rules consistent. This gave a wide spectrum of activities to participate in. Groups sponsored such special events as Foreign Language Day, 4-H Youth Weekend, rodeo competitions and Senior Day — which helped promote student enrollment at KSC. Students participated in music recitals, dance productions, plays and art shows. These activities added to the cultural education of the KSC community. Organizations also expanded the physical boundaries of KSC, as educa- tional trips were taken. From ethnic festivals to tours of newspaper plants and jails, each helped to broaden the student's world. As a group, students experienced added fun in studying wildlife, participating in fishing trips or outdoor picnics. Another facet of organizational life at KSC was the giving of oneself, done by volunteering at the care homes, as well as participating in fund raisers like: Rock, Dance, Walk and Jump-a-thons, clothing drives and blood pressure clinics, Advancing cultural, educational and humanitarian ideals was sup- plemented by creating understanding among all students in organizations like the International Students Association. Greek organizations provided another avenue of social and educa- tional opportunity. Each fraternity or sorority chapter had special interests and activities which they worked toward, Fund raisers included: selling pizza, evergreen plants or valentine cookies, All groups sponsored dances, as well as wine and cheese get- togethers. With an abundance of organiza- tional activities, many kept busy. Feelings of pride and accomplishment resulted in members, and seemed to make it all worth while. Hard work aside, when all was said and done , it was a good feeling to belong to a KSC organization, Nadine Proctor Tami Holen STUDENT SENATE • Front Row 1 - Terri Franzen, Valerie Vitera, Kris Stenberg, Janna Jobman, Jean Wever, Conie Pfeifer.

Sports made it big with the Olympics. The Soviets and friends missed the fun but many more decided to show up. The kaleidos- cope of faces moved us all to a unity of spirit, with faces around the world coming together to share the moment. As a nation we felt pride when we saw Mary Lou Retton leap for the gold — and into our hearts. Who could forget her face after each magnificent gymnastic movement? In track we saw a face of anguish as Mary Decker fell in the race against Britain's Zola Budd. A sporting event of another kind took place — the election of our leadership. Faces of candidates Jack- son, Mondale, Hart and Reagan flashed on television. A blurr of images and a slurr of speeches told us it was time to decide who would be at the helm. The losers fell to the side. The victors took the gold. No silver and bronze in this sport. The faces of entertainment bat- tled for our attention. Michael Jackson gave us a “Thriller and Prince created “Purple Rain. Entertainers were moved by Ethiopian famine to form the rock group, “Band Aid. and record a hit, “Do They Know It's Christmas? A Beverly Hills Cop tore up the silver screen and If we didn't have enough, “Conan II tore up the bad guys. In science fiction “Dune made it to the big screen and in “Starman” we saw a lover from another planet get confused like the rest of us, Even Nebraska got involved when Gov. Kerrey and actress Debra Winger showed what romance in the capital city could be like. Not all of 1984 was entertaining. We saw pain across the world. In faces unfamiliar to most of us: Lebanon, India, Ethiopia, El Salvador, Nicaragua — the names of death, No one could wipe from our minds the senseless horrors that these faces had to endure every day of their shaky existence. In Bhopal, India, a sign of progress was a Union Carbide pes- ticide plant. The price of progress for Bhopal was over 2,500 dead when a chemical leak occurred. But the good of 1984 was there for all in America to see. The space shuttle helped restore pride in a space program gone commercial. And the lady, our Statue of Liberty, having stood by to greet millions, received a face-lift after a century of duty. These and many more faces and events of 1984 made it a year to remember. — Joel Lau 131 Freshmen IBM Judeen Adam, Ravenna Jody Anderson, Stanton Nancy Asp, Holdrege Chad Bailey, Benedict Kristen Bayne, Meadow Grove Julie Beckman, Omaha Kristen Black, west Point Kimberly Brady, Stamford Jeffrey Brandt, Ansiey Dale Brittenham, Gothenburg Jean Brozek, Norfolk David Carstens, Randolph Michelle Cerny, Keamey Cindy Chope, Wassenaar, The Netherlands Lisa Coon, Seward Scott Elliott, Red Cloud Becky Engel, utica David Ensrud, Genng Kristina Estes, waveriy Laura Faltin, Dodge James Fitzgerald, Grand island Randy Foster, Keamey Billy Friesen, Henderson Stephanie Gauchat, Brock Sheila Gawrych, Comstock Lori Goering, Platte Center Michael Gossman.

Jefferies, a pastor at Family of Christ Lutheran Church, used his studies to enhance his work, He counseled single parents and divorced persons, in addition to grief counseling for those who had suffered a major loss. Marriage and pre-maritai counselings were also part of his work. I'm stimulating my mind at college, Jefferies said. I may not even get a degree. I'm using it to enhance skills for what I'm doing now. Jefferies was also a mission- developer pastor as he was building a congregation from scratch, in Kearney. While he attempted to get it to function as a group, he contact- ed many people referred to him by others. Jefferies had also been working on a social service evaluation to identify the needs of the community. Some needs Jefferies found were short-term day care to help single mothers or mothers going to school and senior citizens day care for those who required supervision. “These haven't been set up yet, but are on the agenda, he said. Jefferies said his ministry involved caring for those in need within the area, not preaching to them. He said he hopes his ministry would grow from this outreach approach. “When I have more time, I may take a class in art to learn to see the beauty in people around me in a different way, Jefferies said School isn't just facts and data, which makes it interesting and fun. Jefferies' hobby is the guitar. He often goes to nursing homes and sings 1920s and 1930s tunes, such as “Five Foot Two, Eyes of Blue. “They also enjoy traditional hymns, he added. Jefferies also uses his music in church services. Jefferies, 37, and his wife, Peggy, have two children, Christiana, 3, and Sarah, 1. His wife, a registered nurse, worked at Good Samaritan Hospital in infant intensive care and in the South Central Nebraska area office. She also helped Jefferies with duties at the church, such as calling, social organ- ization and coordinating nursery pro- grams. Jefferies said he wasn't looking for a career change after completing his studies. “I need to keep learning, he added, “It keeps me honed and sharp for my work. — Donna Swigart Marcy Jones, o'Neiii Dwayne King, Freeport, Bahamas Trisha Kitchen, uncom Connie Klein, Neiigh Michael Koler, Red cioud Michelle Korger, Columbus Dara Krueger, North Piatt© Mark Krupicka, Crete Mary Kuk, Omaha Patti Langenberg, Hoskins Jane Larkin, Benedict Chris Leick, Omaha 133 Freshmen i Roselyn Lijoodi, Kenya Karen Lyon, Hoidrego Mark Mapes, Norfok Elizabeth Martinez, North Platte Leann McKim, North Piatt© Marcia Merrill, Stratton Gregg Moeller, wisner Linda Mowitz, Hampton Mary Myers, Chadron Jolene Nelson, nok±©g© Julie Nicolas, Beiiwood Wendy Niemann, st.

Lorna MacGregor and Kerry Reid, both 22 years old, decided they wanted a unique experience for personal development after graduat- ing from the University of St. Cather- ine's in western Australia, where as fellow students they had become friends. MacGregor holds a bachelor's degree in history and English, with a diploma in English education from the university, while Reid has earned a bachelor's in design with a diploma in art education. Reid, whose mother is American, said her mother attended KSC in the 1950s. She met her father, a native Australian, in Denver. They were married and returned to Australia, where she was born. MacGregor was born in Scotland and moved to Australia with her family when she was 8 years old. The two said that one of their goals in coming to KSC included wanting to get involved in theater, which they accomplished during the time they were here. Reid and MacGregor each played an active part of the 1984-85 KSC theater production year. Reid portrayed one of the leading roles, that of Margery, in the October presentation of Extremities. Both Reid and MacGregor had roles in Alpha Psi Omega's November produc- tion of Agatha Christie's “The Mouse Trap Kerry Reid, Loma MacGregor Drama is not as well defined in Australia as it is here, and it doesn't have as much status in education. In Australia, drama in school is more of an extra-curricular activity, not a part of the educational system. Here you get credit for it, MacGregor said. Both felt education as a whole was quite different between the two countries. It's easier to get involved here. There are more extra-curricular activities and you are allowed to talk more in class, Reid noted. Mac- Gregor added that in Australia the educational system is traditional, very old-style British, KSC students took notice of the two Australians because of their accents. People love the accents. We stand out a bit because of them. It's great; it's good fun! MacGregor said with a laugh. MacGregor and Reid said it had been a great experience to attend KSC. “We've met many different types of people. Traveling from Australia to the U.S. really opened our eyes a lot, they said. Both also agreed, with all the good times and good friends they'd met in America, it would be hard to leave when it was time to go home. — Jane Carroll L J n U Sophomores Shari Weiss, ScottsWuff Jean Wever, North Piatt© Jackie Wieser, Columbus Tim Wolfe, Coleridge Jeff Yonker, Phillips Charles Ziska, Atkinson Brenda Anderson, Hyannis Brian Anderson, Hyannis Lucille Bangura, Omaha 135 I John Barnes, wausa Penny Bayne, North Piatt© Kurt Beck, Holdrege Pam Beck, Sprlngvlew Jodie Bender.

Left, a history major, was involved in several functions at KSC that she felt furthered her horizons. The model United Nations was one of the activities in which Left was a part. In October, Left and eight other students from KSC, along with students from all over the Midwest, took part in a model UN held at Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada. Ac- cording to Left, the activities involved: general assembly, security council, committee of cultural and social affairs, and world bank — all functions of the UN on a smaller scale. She said that it was nerve-racking because she had no prior training in parliamen- tary procedure” Left added that in order to further the interest of international relations the Americans and the Canadian students took part in social functions after all the activities were over. The Locke and Key Society was another activity in which Left par- ticipated. The society was a group open to students interested in political science. According to Left, one of the functions of Locke and Key was to attract local speakers, an activity in which she had been a part in conjunction with her work toward a political science minor. She said she found it to be a valuable learning experience. Left was vice president of Locke and Key during the fall semes- ter. Another learning experience that Left said she valued was the Model House (of Representatives) held every year by the Locke and Key Society. Here, she said, the parliamentary procedure she picked up in the model UN was used with a little more expertise. The Model House is similar to the model UN in that it is a scaled- down version of the House of Repre- sentatives. After graduation in August, Left said that she would either try to get a position in a corporation doing historical research or continue her education. If she did go on with her education she would like to become involved in the International Student Exchange Program. The countries she would like to work in are Ireland or England. She said this would only be for one year and from there she would earn her master's at an east coast college. Left said she knows success is hard to come by, but she is facing her future with confidence. — Joel Lau 137 lomores Judy Lewis, Orleans Connie Lightner, st.

I was just learning to walk without crutches. People made a real turns positive big deal about how, when I would fall down, I'd supposedly never cry,'' said Wonder, now an 18-year-old KSC freshman. Wonder, who still walks with crutches, served two terms as the Nebraska United Cerebral Palsy As- sociation poster child in 1971 and 1972. Wonder believes she and her fellow students at the J.P. Lord School for the Handicapped in Omaha were exploited by the media. She has particularly painful memories concern- ing how the children were handled during telethons. Her experiences as a poster child, however, had positive sides as well. Wonder joked that all the early media exposure whetted her appetite for more. She has been taking courses in both journalism and broadcasting at KSC as a result. Coupling a love of people and writing with her desire to make her own living, Wonder is preparing for a career, with an eye toward opportuni- ties in the Christian media. Some people think that Christian writing is just public relations for God, but it is more than that. There is a real need for good writing from a Christian perspective, she said. Wonder found that college for Wonder students seemed more able to accept her than did students at Omaha Northwest High School. Fellow college students responded to her abilities rather than her disability. She was active on campus as a staff writer for the Antelope newspaper, a member of Christian Student Fellow- ship and Student Senate freshman senator, Wonder was also happy with the college from an academic stand- point, but she said there was very little to do socially, besides drink. At age 18, she was still too young to go into bars and watch other people dance. It is improving for me, she said, as I make more friends and get more involved. I feel less and less isolated. Still, occasionally there were people who could not see beyond the cerebral palsy to the person inside. “Some people don't think I can do this — that I would do better in a less visible career, Wonder said, but I know I can do it.

Craig Strong, a senior at KSC majoring in public relations, came to know the burden of this responsibility in his position as KSC student representative of the Nebras- ka State College Board of Trustees. Governor Bob Kerrey selected Strong, who is from Taylor, Neb., for this position from a group of three applicants submitted by the KSC Student Senate. Strong had been a member of senate for three years. The board met every six weeks during the school year at various state colleges. According to Strong, activi- ties included “all major decisions that effect any or all of the state colleges. The group looked at the needs of colleges, both in funding and faculty, then put priorities in line. The budget was then submitted to the Nebraska Legislature for review. Strong said even though the students had no actual voting rights, their voice was heard. In October, Strong said the student board members held a luncheon for Lincoln area high school counselors and gave them a perspec- tive on the state college system. Strong also took part in a governor's commission on higher education. He said this allowed him to become familiar with the university and tech- nical college system. Strong didn't lose touch with the Student Senate. He thought it was important to keep the lines of communication open; it allowed him to keep up with the needs of students and it let senate know what was going on at state level. Besides the responsibility of being on the Board of Trustees, Strong was also photo editor for the college yearbook, Blue and Gold, He super- vised student photographers and handled photo assignments. He also critiqued their work, suggested im- provements and took care of any instruction in darkroom techniques. Strong said he hoped to eventual- ly earn his master's degree. He also hoped to stay in the Midwest, even though he said Nebraska is limited in public relations positions, When asked how being on the board would effect his job outlook, his reply was, “Couldn't hurt. Strong was confident that he could handle the future. — Joel Lau Nadine Long, Omaha Marcia Lovitt, Mason City Chris Luong, cozad Tina Madden, Potter Sharon Maxwell, Kearney Becky Mayer, Grand island Jeff Morgan, Eiwood Kathy Morrison, Omaha Linda Murdoch, Hoidreoe John Oehlrich, Columbus Brian Peters, McCook Becky Phelps, ciarks Juniors I Wanda Bairn, Lewe en Michael Bartels, Gothenburg Robin Beavers, Gibbon Ronda Berqmark, Phillips Karil Bjorklund, Grand Island Gordon Boesen, North piatte Seniors Paula Ackerman, Juniata Mary Allen, Greeley Amy Bailey, Gibbon Angela Platek, Clay Center George Quinn, Oxford Kimberly Rebman, Alma Sherri Rogers, North Platte Jacqueline Roth, Omaha Steve Ruppert, McCook Joan Schaaf, Atkinson Donna Schimonltz, st.

Mike Hansen was the answer! Hansen, a senior from Lincoln, not only studied business administration and marketing at KSC, but had the opportunity of working in the field of marketing research while at KSC. Last summer, Hansen participated in a two-month project in conjunction with his business consultantship class and the Kearney Chamber of Com- merce, Hansen and seven other KSC students, under the direction of marketing instructor John Nelson, performed a marketing study to discover the effectiveness of the Chamber of Commerce's advertising efforts, The commerce was interested in seeing how effective the effort of Ayer's Advertising Company of Lincoln had been on Kearney-area farmers, Ayer's did most of the Chamber's advertising in Kearney. The study provided information on the marketing of farm-related products. Students compiled a ques- tionnaire and distributed it to farmers attending the Gateway Farm Exposi- tion, held at the Kearney Fairgrounds. The questionnaire concerned where people spent their money while in Kearney, and what advertisements they had seen most. The questionnaires were then cross-tabulated on computers and presented to the commerce. The study showed that commerce's ad- vertising dollar had been well spent, according to Hansen. Another project in which Hansen was involved was the Kearney Eco- nomics Impact Study. This study was done in conjunction with Hansen's Special Problems in Business class. A questionnaire was designed and given to students living both off and on campus, as well as commuter students and alumni. The questions concerned where KSC students were spending their money and how student popula- tion effected Kearney-area busi- nesses. The study, performed at the request of KSC President William Nester, was done to measure the financial impact of KSC students on the Kearney regional area, Hansen said. During his years at KSC Hansen worked as a student representative at the Union and a tour guide during the new Union's grand opening. After graduation in May, he said he'd be Interested in becoming an air traffic controller or pursuing a career in marketing research. Hansen said that he enjoyed marketing research and felt his education at KSC would be very beneficial. — Mary Ann Kill M3 Seniors Linda Evert, Bruie Christina Farias, Gibbon Tom Fellmeier, Hortmgton Kim Foth, Ord Terri Franzen, Gothenburg Patty Grleb, Omc a Kerl Grohs, Omm Pennle Gunn, North Piatt® Kory Hansen, tvtnden LOrl Harper, Kearney Karen Hayes, Aiwand Carol Hess, Famom Taml Helen, Bertrand Shelly Horsford, Fromonf Joseph Houdek, ctxvmcr Delores Inness, Loup etty Christine Johnson, nok ege Julie Johnson, bic Konnle KeOSChall, Ravenna Barbara Keep.

Paul Loy, a non- tradltlonal student attending KSC, bears a resemblance to the famous songster, but odds were also pretty high you might have recognized Loy just for himself. At KSC, he appeared to be popular and well-known. Sitting and talking with him. one could expect to be frequently Interrupted by people greeting Loy. Loy. a Berwyn. Neb. resident, traveled 110 miles on Tuesday and Thursday to attend classes on cam- pus. He also took a course in Broken Bow two nights a week and an extension course in economics through the University of Nebraska. Loy took 21 hours during spring semester. He worked on majors in three areas; business administration, speech and economics. This schedule didn't bother Loy as he was accustomed to being busy, having had several jobs in the past, in addition to raising a family. Loy's wife, Sharon, also has attended KSC. The I Loy's three children have kept them active. Allan was a freshman at KSC; Carla, a freshman at Chadron State College, and Rob, a freshman in high school, Keeping track of everybody and their variety of activities kept Loy on his toes, he said. Loy, a sophomore, plans to graduate in two years, then go on to receive a master's degree. In the 70's, after breaking his back for a second time in an auto accident, Loy went into law enforcement. He enjoyed it but felt law was becom- ing too political-oriented, Loy then decided to take advantage of the Veteran's Administration vocational rehabilitation program and returned to KSC, where he had previously attend- ed in 1969-70. A comment, by doctors, provided Loy with another reason for returning to school. Doctors didn't think he would be able to walk in another 10 years. I'm going to prove them wrong ' Loy said, but just in case, I want to know I have another means of making a living, he added. Besides attending KSC. Loy also managed his father's farm. Loy said since he could no longer lift heavy objects or ao strenuous work, he helped in the management of 3,500 acres, He also kept busy with a wood-working shop where he made wood items such as, clocks, some furniture and tables that were for sale in the central Nebraska area. Walking around campus during free time, Loy was often stopped by teachers and students, just to say hi or chat a minute. He seemed to enjoy this. Loy said, I never want to grow up. I want to stay young and college keeps me young. — Diane Hodgson JoAnn Mikoioyck, Otttoin Rhonda Miller, cozad William Mlnnick. Ashland Teresa Mitchell.

The Atlantic Ocean and the prairie ocean of Nebraska were worlds apart for Angelique Smith. Smith came from Freeport, Bahamas, which Is about 50 miles south of the Florida coast, Curiosity lured her here. “I thought Nebraska would have horses and carriages, but I was wrong, Nebraska is really a modern place. Smith heard about KSC from Henry O'Brien, a former graduate of KSC. He was calling prospective students in their native homeland and got in contact with Smith. Smith's first reaction was Where's Nebraska? That next fall she was on a plane headed for KSC. Smith comes from a family of five. She has one brother and one sister. Her father is a superintendent for an oil refinery. Smith's mother is an accountant for a real estate com- pany and also owns her own business school. When describing how It felt to be so far from home. Smith said, It is lonely, I haven't been home for iO months and I can't wait to go home this summer. Smith is majoring in business administration and thinking about a minor in computer science. She already has an associate degree in business administration, which she earned at Taylor Business institute in New York City. Smith said the differ- ences in KSC and TBI are outstanding. “At TBI you had a set time table. The schedule was set up for you so that you had the same subjects four days a week and one day set aside for tutoring. The tuition was $5,000 per semester compared to the $500 per semester at KSC. I think TBI is the only school in the world that went on strike. The strike lasted for six weeks, The biggest change in coming to Nebraska for Smith was the weather, She said, It was too cold, Now It is getting better. While attending school in New York, Smith expe- rienced her first snow. Her reaction was Wow, this Is snow. Smith was a pledge for the sorority, Chi Omega, The girls make you feel at home, she said. Smith described herself as a quiet person who likes to stick to herself. She is just getting to know the girls in her dorm. Since coming to Nebraska and KSC, Smith has experienced many new things and is looking forward to coming back next year to advance her studies. — Monica Williamson 147 1 Above: Some students find married Ilf© Inviting as graduation nears.

Kellogg Deciding what to do after graduation Is no problem for Senior Frank Boeshart as he gets help from the Career Planning and Placement Center. FarewellKCS... on to new beghnings From her© where do I go? This was the question KSC students asked themselves as graduation ap- proached. The choices varied between graduate school, getting married, taking up careers or combin- ing all. Some ambitious souls decided they wanted to further their educa- tion, thus going on to graduate school with hopes of adding a master's degree to their line of credentials. Assisting in this desire, KSC offered MBA degrees In educational and business management programs. For others, once graduation from college was accomplished, the next step was marriage. With formal education behind and careers ahead they were ready to make commit- ments. Not surprising, the majority of graduates decided to pursue careers. They sought jobs related to their interests and found more openings available than In previous years, as the economy was starting on an upward swing. According to Jackie Rosenlof of the Career Plannfng and Placement Center, the highest demand for non-education majors in the job market was in the area of computer science, Popular also were openings for those with liberal arts degrees. For education majors the emphasis in hiring was on bilingual and foreign language teachers, as well as teachers in the area of special education, Math and science teachers also remained high in demand. Approximately 1,200 students took advantage of the Placement Center, Its services offered the prospective graduate the chance to be interviewed by such companies as Mutual of Omaha, Electronics Data Systems, and Nash Finch. Interviews were also conducted on campus by school systems from as far west as California and as far east as Florida, with the majority coming from the Midwest-Central region, This placement service helped an estimated 45 percent of the ap- plicants find Jobs that satisfied them, For those in the education field two-thirds took Jobs in Nebraska, while two-thirds of non-education majors took jobs In areas out-of-state. The key to their career opportuni- ties was a college degree. “It's not so important what the degree is in, but just the fact that a degree stands for one's ability to research, to make decisions and to solve problems. This helps equip the student for almost any Job, said Rosenlof. “These are characteristics that employers look for. Several KSC alumni benefitted from more than Just their degrees; it was their total college experience that prepared them for a variety of Jobs. KSC alumnus, Ron Larsen, was a KSC math major. He now manages a grocery store in Kearney and is a member of the city council. The question was “from here where do I go? The obvious answer was ... on to bigger and better things. KSC grads faced forward In the direction of their choice and set out to determine their future, •Figures represent statistics at the time of the Placement Center's last annual report. — Carolyn Troxel 149 Alumni Faces from aces throughout the business community of Kearney re- vealed more than what could m be seen on the surface. These faces were not merely local business persons, but some of KSC's very own — previous KSC graduates. At first glance, Gary Kruse of Kearney looked like the average banker, but questioning revealed he was one of our own — o 1962 graduate of KSC. Further Investigation found several more faces in Kearney's business community; faces that had once been seen strolling the halls and sidewalks of KSC's campus. A familiar face to many current students, Marsha Yeagley, a 1973 graduate of KSC, could still be seen on campus, but now as a business instructor Instead of a student. Then there was Donna Lathrop, a 1970 graduate, working as a speech therapist for the Kearney elementary schools. She was all speech therapist on the surface, but KSC alumna underneath. Paul NorbJade, 1961, was KSC’s past another who stayed close to campus. He also worked in the Kearney Public Schools, serving as an industrial arts teacher and basketball coach at Kearney High School. Jim Knapp, class of 1954, used his KSC learning to go on to become an attorney In Kearney, while Dr. Gilbert Rude. 1973. went on from KSC to become a doctor specializing in family practice. lien© Gotobed, a 1947 graduate, became Kearney school's lunch super- visor and 1981 KSC grad Bob Molcyk took on a career as an insurance agent in town. From lawyers to teachers, from bankers to managers; these were just a few of many who graduated from KSC and entered the business world in Kearney. They chose to seek Nebras- ka's proverbial the good life In the heartland — they stayed close to home, but continued to challenge life face forward. —Carolyn Troxel Upper right- Industria art? teacfte Pai Norbkx� demonstrates a wood-cultlng procGii in ntt ndustrial am cicm at Keornov Junior High.
