T M hink back about all the classes you ' ve take here. Recall the hours of note taking, book reading, and paper writing on every stibject from Far Eastern religions to quantitative methods. Now try to remem- ber everything you learned from those classes. Sure, you ' ll remember the suffering you went through, but the information? It was forgotten as soon as the final was turned in, right? Well actually, you probably learned more than yoti believe. Take economics, for example. I bet when you read a story about the federal deficit or Reagan ' s supply-side policy you have a mtich better under- standing than before taking the class. Even classes like statistics and calculus stick in your mind. You may not remember them now, but vou will when that report on consumer buying habits is lying on your desk. There are also those classes that you remember almost everything from — classes that struck a nerve and had you dying to learn more. Maybe they were literature classes, or philosophy classes, or classes in bio-chemistry; maybe they were in your major, )e they were electives. The point is, from every one of those nine 14 classes a year, from the people, and rom the variety of other programs and ictivities on campus, whether senior happy- ' hours, or counseling from the acadeifiie resource center, you take a something with you. Of course, ' pu eart ' t take it all, but you take what you need. — Tim Myers Opening 5

H 5 3 Tim Myers I n ten years, there will be a number of things about this year I will never forget: the Untouchables concert, the Human Sexuality Series, the men ' s basketball team playing in the NCAA, the women ' s crew team win- ning the national finals, Lisa ' s Pieces in the The Santa Clara.... But none of these or any other event and activity would have been poss- ible without the people behind them, people like Kerri Forni who chaired the student senate, or Emily McFarland who directed SCCAP, or Brent Brinkerhoff who coordinated the intramural program. People like these helped make Santa Clara a place to have fun, a place to voice opinions, a place to learn, and a place to remember. There also were those involved in many smaller activities. Activities that also made Santa Clara what it was in 1987, people like Ted Gabrielli who collected $3000 in pennies so he could build a house for a family in Mexico, or Derrick Tynan-Connolly who wasn ' t afraid to speak out about being gay, or Chrisanne Beebe who spent 15 to 20 hours a week tutoring students studying German. And it didn ' t stop with students. There were many faculty members who spent time with students outside the classroom — professors like Carolyn Mitchell, Ph.D., who spent count- less hours with students in her office, at students ' homes and her own, and on many excursions to plays, speakers, and museums. Whether it was working hard in an extracurricular activity, or working in the classroom, students, faculty and the host of others in the University community made Santa Clara University their place by giving all they could. — Tim Myers b Opening
