The men's basketball team reached the quarter-finals in the NIT. The faces of those involved in the increased tutoring programs reflected sincere dedication. These images, and innu- merable others, comprised the unique quality and character of Santa Clara in 1984. Construction was also a distinc- tive part of the year. Beyond alter- ing sections of campus, the expan- sion of Benson Center and Daly Science embodied an inner expan- sion of school pride and spirit. Stu- dents' respect for their school grew along with public recognitionl of it as an outstanding liberal arts col- lege. But although the gardens blos- somed and the dome over the Lea- vey pool went up for the winter and down for the spring, students .,, acted differently. In contrast with recent years, students demonstrated their concern over the proposed Student Fee Committee, and the Major!Minor issue. And that dis- play of student - and faculty - sentiment, as seen at the Tenure Rally!Sit-in, even reached the local newspaper. It was clear that many had final- ly had enough with apathy.

Later, it is a fond memory, but the Candlelight Dinner always finds the new freshmen self-conscious and unsure of each other. An engineering major from Ukiah, Mike La Ha was ' seated next to Nella Nencini because he didn't know her. Nella is a political science major from Carmel. Despite initial tension, the dinner in the newly remodeled cafeteria was a successful ice-breaker for the class. C 0 3 o ll ac 5 G E The Key word is BETTER' 3 Sue W ,,.,:5

1 ,I fi Q .. 1 Q- 'N Hedda helluva GDOD TIME. t was a sticky hot September night for the restless students in McLaughlin 317. The school year had begun. Classes, a couple of big fraternity parties, coconut oil in the gardens at noon, perfume and cologne in the halls before dinner. But soon, as more trees bared their limbs, fewer students bared theirs. And as though it were part of the natural cycle, studying became an increasingly common indoor activity. Gradually, though, the pressure was building, tension mounted - finals were invading. They stormed the campus and levied a brutal tyranny Then, at the height of their oppression, they toppled, crashed, and were over. Students, facul- ty, administrators, along with the buildings, groaned a sigh of relief. It was Christmas Break. Upon returning, everyone found a similar, though chillier, regimen awaiting them. Refreshed from their i X Christmas hibernation, many thought that winter quarter seemed to fly by. For others, the cold and repetition seemed only to slow the pace. Spring quarter was the real test, it separated the students from the tourists. This time, as the menacing finals approached, the unsuspecting student body was undermined with sun, Santa Cruz, and subversive liquid refreshments - all cleverly calculated to wreak havoc upon inno- cent GPA's. At the time, registration, classes, tests, and finals seemed a tedious burden. But when it only lasts four years and then is over, the unique charm of it all is impossible to deny. Joseph R.

Julie, a combined science major, divided her extra time between writing and working at the information Booth. Haada helluva sooo TIME' 5
