Jamaicans like ackee and saltfish, Barbadians like the flying fish, « Trinidadians like the cascadoo, And no doubt, if they try the ackee and flyiwp, They ' d like it too. We Are One! Author Unknown Chancellor ' s o m m e n t a r 1983 y It would seem that the sum total of all life ' s aspira- tions should be toward a better world in which to live. We believe that our success in developing worthwhile lives rests on our abilities to discover new and better means toward our ultimate goals -- goals that are based on four fundamental phases of life ' s activities, namely, Education, Culture, Economics, and Social Advancements. You must explore all avenues as you seek new and better ways and means to throw off the yokes of poverty, disease, and ill will. You must be courageous and daring. You must perfect the old and seek out the new. With these thoughts, we dedicate the future to the University of Maryland Eastern Shore graduating class of 1983. Chancellor liWixm MING Homecoming this year was very exciting, it car- ried the theme: The Sky is the Limit. Throughout the week there were many activities.

ALPHA ALPHA KAPPA Alpha Kappa Alpha is the first Greek-letter sorority among Negro college women. Alpha Kappa Alpha was founded at Howard University in Washington, B.C. on January 15, 1908. Our founders organized themselves with the purpose in mind to cultivate and encourage high scholastic and ethical standards, improve the social status of the race, promote unity and friendship among college women, and keep alive within the alumnae an in- terest in college life and progressive movements emanating therefrom. Alpha Kappa Alpha was incorporated under the laws of the District of Columbia and the original chapter became the Alpha chapter in 1913. Alpha Kappa Alpha then began to expand to other college campuses. In keeping with our intended purpose, Alpha Kappa Alpha today participates in a number of civic, social, and educational services, among these are scholarship funds and a national health program. Alpha Kappa Alpha is a member of the American Council on Human Rights. ALPHA PHI ALPHA From the Men of Purpose Good will is the monarch of this house. M en, unacquainted, enter, shake hands, exchange greetings and depart friends. Cordiality exists among all who abide within. A Ipha Phi A Ipha Fraternity, Inc. which is the oldest Black Greek-letter Fraternity was founded December 4, 1906, at Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y. by Nathaniel A. Murray, Henry A. Call is, Charles H. Chapman, Eugene K. Jones, George B. Kelly, Robert H. Ogle, and Vertner W. Tandy (known to the fraternity as the seven jewels). These seven jewels stuck together through the primaries of organizing this fraternity. Their purpose was to show the world that they possessed the necessary tools of manly brotherhood to better themselves and contribute in whatever ways they could in making society better, socially, economically, and culturally. [ e, the Delta Nu Chapter of A Ipha Phi A Ipha, believe strongly in the ideals and purpose of our fraternity. We will continue to rise and multiply, and remain the most unique, and distinguished magnetic fraternal force in the world KAPPA ALPHA PSI A New Dimension In Achievement Founded on January 5, 1911 as a Black Greek College Fraternity at Indiana University, Kappa A Ipha Psi has since then indoctrinated approximately 77,000 members into its noble clan. The Gamma Xi Chapter, here at VMES, has continued the Fraternity ' s initial objective as a community serving organization. This New Era of brothers has initiated programs and activities such as, the Annual Blood Drive (in cooperation with the Salisbury Blood Bank). This activity has donated more blood to our nearby community, than any other Blood Drive on the Delmarva Peninsula. Other activities include The First Annual Kappa Roundball Classic and The First Annual Kappa Kabaret. These, and other activities which the brothers have implemented, will continue the growth of the Chapter and the Grand Fraternity. Kappa Alpha Psi is a new dimension in achievement and another reason to be proud of the heritage here at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore. DELTA Unity Theme Delta ' s unity is reflected in the symbolism of the National Flower of the sorority, the Violet. Deltas are like violets who can not show their fullest beauty while standing alone, but when united as one with the power of sisterhood focused toward the same goals they will radiate a magnificant force that will conquer any task. Although at first glance Deltas seem to look alike, on closer inspection, one notes the many subtle, charming, and individual characteristics that make each one distinctly different from her sister. This difference strength- ens the unity within the sisterhood because Deltas accept each other as a vital part of the development of an un- breakable bond. Marie Johnson Hartford County Alumnae z E T A P H I B E T A Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. was founded at Howard University in Washington, D.C. on January 16, 1920 by Arizona Stemmons, Myrtle Faithful, Pearl A. Neal, Fannie Watts, and Viola Goings. They were encouraged to establish the sorority by C.R. Taylor and A.L. Langston Taylor, members of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. To this date, Zeta Phi Beta and Phi Beta Sigma have worked together as official Greek-lettered sister and brother organizations. The objectives, which are Sisterly Love, Womanhood, Service and Scholarship, have brought together women from all parts of the world who have similar tastes, aspirations, potentialities, and desires. The members of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. have become a vital part of the community and the world. p B S H E I T A I G M A On January 9, 1914 three students at Howard University came together to form the nucleus of what has now become one of the most prestigious and influential Greek-letter college societies. Sigma ' s bond of Brotherhood, Scholarship and Service extends beyond the United States and is now international in scope, which accounts for its great diversity of character. Phi Beta Sigma ' s motto: Culture for Service and Service for Humanity exemplies the dedication of its members to serve Humanity and enhance its culture through the promotion of Education, Bigger and Better Black Business and Social Action. The Alpha Mu Chapter was established in 1935 and enjoys the distinction of being the first Greek-letter Fraternity chartered at U.M.E.S. OMEGA Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc. was founded November 17, 1911 at Howard University thus establishing itself as the first Black Fraternity to be instituted on a Black campus. By adhering to the four cardinal principles: Manhood, Scholarship, Perseverance, and Uplift, it continues to serve mankind and all causes consistent with its beliefs. Founders: Dr. Ernest E. Just Bishop Edgar A. Love Dr. Oscar J. Cooper Prof Frank Coleman Fraternity Motto: Friendship is essential to the soul. Chapter Motto: What is hard to endure. Is sweet to recall.

ORGANIZATIONS IN ACTION Soul Explosion, The Band with Emotion and Devotion The Soul Explosion band which is presently under the direction of Rev. K.A. Martin Sr. has demonstrated pride, dedication, and service to the University of Maryland, Eastern Shore. The main concern of the Soul Explosion band is to spread a message of love, joy, peace, and happiness through music. Their achievements and accomplishments are made possible through hard work and a family effort. Soul Explosion is more than just a band, it ' s a proud and close-knit family, a family which uses pride, dignity, honor, and self-respect as sources of inspiration. Rev. Martin and his wife have, in addition to conducting a band, taught their members the key to another suc- cessful year; love, understanding, determination, and most of all devotion.

U nity is the Key We, as college men, being aware of the increasing com- plexity of men ' s problems, especially those of Black men, and realizing the necessity of forming an organization for the purpose of studying and solving such problems, do therefore organize this fellowhsip in order to cultivate and encourage high scholastic and ethical standards, im- prove the social stature of the race, promote unity and fellowship among college men and keep alive within the graduate an interest in college life and progressive move- ment emanating therefrom.

I must admit that I am very pleased with this edition of the Hawk Yearbook. At the present time, I have no regrets other than not having an undergraduate section. The response of underclassmen for picture sessions was so meager, we decided to exclude them. I apologize to those who were considerate enough to have their pictures taken. Hopefully, next year your peers will contribute to the success of yet another Yearbook. I ' d like to thank the members of the Publications Review Board for giving me the opportunity to head the staff My appreciations go out to Ms. Linda Wolfordfor having the patience to listen to my many complaints (although I lost the bet, we met our deadlines ); to Ms. Alrethia M. Matthews for putting up with my many moods, for being a friend and trusting me. (I can ' t help being spoiled, but I made you laugh, luv ya); to Dr. Diane Showell for taking time out during those last minutes to write the dedication thanks for responding to my distress call; to Mr. Alan Fritch, Public Relations Officer for keeping us informed of University activities and visitors. I ' d like to espe- cially thank Mrs. Dorothy Waters our advisor, for endorsing me as the editor-in-chief, and for giving me the responsibility of producing the book. I know I gave you , but I know you believed and had faith in me. Thanks for treating me to lunch and dinner those days when I was hungry. Being a vegetarian isn ' t bad. Try it, you ' ll like it. I love you and will never forget you. I ' d like to thank all my friends who helped me meet that last deadline, without you, I would have been a total wreck: Cassandra , Debbie, Donna, Johnny, Debbie, Beverly, Larry, Darlene. That ' s what friends are for . . . caring. Mike and Karen, I ' ll never forget either of you. For without you there would be no me. I thank you again. Steph , I don ' t know what to say, you were always there when I needed a shoulder to cry on. Thank you for taking the slack for the rest of the staff when no one else was there to hear it. Thanks for understanding and never giving up on me. I told you this wasn ' t an easy job, now do you believe me? I ' d like to apologize to Sharon for our misunder- standing. I hope we can still be friends. To Mr. Wiles, our school photographer, many, many thanks. Courtesy is contagious. To the rest of our staff, I thank you with all of my heart for your hard work, cooperation, dedication and faith. You never gave up hope, not even under pressure during the last seconds of the game. Your thoughts and ideas were greatly appreciated and I will never forget the m or you. Michael Walker Challenge after challenge, experience after expe- rience, and finally a touch of class. A step above the rest. In my eyes this is what every yearbook staff strives for, aside from quality, quantity and perfec- tion. I am happy to have had the opportunity to serve this growing University as a member of the Hawk yearbook staff. The experience gave me an opportunity to spread a feeling of unity among my peers. This has enhanced the concept of our theme Unity holds the key. Truly yours, Michael R. Walker Stephanie Nix Stephanie Nix is a native of New York City who is majoring in Business Administration. She is a junior here at the University and has worked with the staff for two consecutive years, the first as a volunteer. She enjoys dancing, children, and meeting new people. Her objective in life is to become a successful business woman. I feel that more people should become involved in their school publications. I used to think the com- plaints of the staff were unreal, but they are not. realize now how much hard work and dedication it takes to produce a successful yearbook. I am very proud to have been a part of this venture. Stephanie R. Nix Karen Powell Kevin Johnson Kevin is a native of Federalsburg, MD. He is a Business Administration major. His extra-curricu- lar activities are the Concert Choir, Gospel Choir, Campus Pals, Judicial Board, Intramural Volley- ball, M.E.N.C. Pres. of MIAKA Club, Yearbook Staff, Treasurer for Drama Society.

Johnson Sharon Johnson Hello, As a senior majoring in business Adm., and pres- ently residing in Silver Springs, Md., I have found the past three years working with the Hawk staff a very rewarding and memorable experience. This pub- lication has helped me devote the necessary time and effort carefully, the time and effort that was needed to construct a successful yearbook for you, the stu- dents at the University. Due to the lack of staffing in previous years, I dedicated my services to be sure that we the student body had a yearbook. I have enjoyed every moment with the staff and will continue to be of service to them when needed. Please, any interested students, join us. Help to achieve the goals that I, myself, have achieved while working with the 1983-84 yearbook staff. We need your support!! Sharon Y. Johnson Leslie Halsey My name is Leslie Halsey. I am a new member of the Hawks Yearbook staff. I am a junior majoring in Business Administration and a resident of Green- belt, MD. I really enjoyed working with the staff, to complete yet another successful book. I joined the team in hope that my services would be of some assistance, to better the quality of this year- book. I know that my imput makes a lot of difference in this publication ' s output. — a life that does not afford the kind of freedom which you have enjoyed as a typical college student. At the same time, and perhaps most important, the life you are now beginning is one of unlimited chal- lenge and opportunity. The University of Maryland Eastern Shore has given you foundation. Your goals, as pirations, and motivations will dictate the additional preparation you will need, as well as the direction you will go from here. And whether you choose to enter the job market at this juncture or go on to graduate and professional school, resolve to commit your total self to the task. Be tenacious, competitive, and unyield- ing. Go forth with the ambition of a Kennedy or a Rockefeller; the adventure of the legendary Viking; and the wisdom of a Socrates. In doing so, you will contribute significantly to the legacy of this Institu- tion and earn for it the accolades it rightfully de- serves. Congratulations on becoming alumni from this Institution — and the best of luck in your future endeavors. The University of Maryland Eastern Shore ' s 96th Commencement Program — 1983 — Chancellor Hytche speaks: This is perhaps my last opportunity to address you — the class of 1983 — as a group, and I would like to leave you with these final thoughts. In anticipation, four years seem like a lifetime. The academic rigor, problems of finance, and person- al sacrifices all seem to make the college experience one long, extended struggle. Oftentimes you have, no doubt, questioned the worth and value of this experi- ence — particularly given the employment situation growing out of the economic upheaval of the last decade. But in the face of these would-be adversi- ties, you persevered, buttressed by the encouragement and support of your teachers, friends, parents, and guardians. This achievement is not, however, an end within itself, rather, it is, as the Commencement Exercise symbolizes, the beginning. It is the beginning of a life of unlimited responsibility and unending labor A solo presentation by Mrs. Tania Galvin- Massey, Soprano, featuring Ms. Alma Gregg, Associate Professor of Music, on pi- ano and Dr. Douglas I. Smith, Lecturer of Music on flute. The Honorable Joseph D. Tydings, chair- man of the University of Maryland Board of Regents and University of Maryland President, John S. Toll, both spoke at the Ceremony. If you can imagine it, you can achieve it, If you can dream it, you can become it. For, we imagined. We dreamed; We achieved; and We are now college graduates.
