E D I 0 R I L Mark liut x: HIiw i- Culd titihar t 's been two short years since the Blue Gold has changed its format from the traditional yearbook format to that of a magazine. As a staff member for the Blue Gold during the past two years, I’ve seen much change. As editor of the 1988 Blue Gold, I wanted to see that change continue for the better. I wanted this year’s Blue Gold to be a reflection of the entire KSC campus. This year, I believe we have captured that campuswide coverage I’d hoped to achieve. Inside, you ’ll find stories relating to art, economics, politics, sports and a wrap- up of this academic year’s events. Jana Walz visited art professor Ray Schultz and explored the craft of glass blowing. Political science department chairman Thomas Magstadt provided a reflection on the U.S. Constitution, which America celebrated its 200th birthday last year. Ande Rye visited with Magstadt, economics department chairman Sam Reno and physics and physical science department chairman Marvin Glasser about America’s political, economic and environmental future. We also have reflected on the events of 20 years ago this year. In our special section, you will find a recap ofl 968. It reflects the social upheaval, music and headlines of that era in which many of us are too young to remember. Some may ask why we consider ourselves as a magazine and still retain the hardcover. The reason is you, the student body. Twenty years down the road, the 1988 Blue Gold will still contain memories of the 1987-88 school year and remain intact. The hardcover serves as a form of permanency for this magazine. With less than half the writers of the two previous Blue Gold magazines, this year’s staff was able to produce the same size magazine and make it an informative and entertaining publication. I would like to thank all staff members and editors for their tremendous effort and dedication toward this magazine. Had it not been for their perseverance, I would probably still be enduring sleepless nights, scratching my head and wondering how to go about publishing a 96-page magazine. I hope you will find this year’s Blue Gold as informative as entertaining.
