Wartburg College - Fortress Yearbook (Waverly, IA)

Text from Pages 1 - 216 of the 1983 volume:

students adapt to changes on campus, adjust to ttie world situation, and manage to get by despite Increased financial strain. Filling in Foundations When the south entrance of the Student Union was closed to allowfor construction, cooperation became a way of life. students were annoyed wtth the extra walking the construction presented, but soon adapted knowing the new building would be more convenient in the future. Last year, when the yearbook staff started kicking around themes for the 1983 Fortress, we took a close look at Wortburg ' s academics, people, and activttles. We also looked at the traditions which make Wartburg special. We reflected on the history and looked at the future of Wartburg. It is the immediate future of the new building con- necting Luther Hail with the Student Union, and the removal of Wartburg Hall that are in students ' minds. We felt that improvement is important, but the emphasis should be on people, not buildings. Filling in Foundations is an appropriate way of expressing the place the Wartburg community has in students ' iives. The school builds on the founda- tion students have brought with them, preparing them for future occupations and places In society. With the cooperation of Wortburg ' s community, the people, academics, events, organizations and sports odd more filling to the foundation. At the Fortress office, we ' re proud to be a part of the Wartburg foundation. Ufl: Luther Hall Is the one campus building people see from Bremer Avenue. To provide a liberal arts education and a good background for thie future has long been one of Wartburg ' s goals. Thils was the cornerstone upon which the college was laid. Building from its start in Saginaw. Michigan in 1852, the college has grown to accommodate over 1100 students. And the excellence which its founders opted for has not been compromised during its growth. The time professors have to spend individually with students offers an excellent opportunity for the exchange of ideas. Not only do the students absorb Icnowledge from professors, these faculty members gain also. The new computer system offers compu- ter science and business majors new opportunities for learning. Journalism students entered the com- puter age also with the Installation of two video display terminals in the publications house. Busi- ness majors ook forward to moving from Old Main into the New Building for the 1 983-84 school year. All departments continue to train students to fit future occupations, as the Career Development Center boasts a 96 percent placement average. The college provides time for professors to further their educations or careers by providing sabbatical leaves. Ken Weitz, instructor in English, retumed full time second semester after spending time In Iowa City working toward a Ph.D. in English. Axel Schuessler, associate professor of history, is reconstructing the earliest stages of the Chinese language using histor- ical documents that go back more than 3,000 years. There is a wide variety of study programs offered within the college system. The traditional programs — business, biology, mathematics — are juxta- posed with more unusual programs — music ther- apy, special education, and leisure services. Pro- grams such as economics have long since given way to interests in English, political science, and religion. Many night classes are being offered to allow more part time students to pick up college credit. Classes are offered every night of the week except Friday. The course offerings range from Shakespea- rean literature to self-defense. The tightening up of monies to aid students has affected financial aid packages of many. Lutheran Mutual Life doubled the amount of money in the Regents ' Scholarship Program and added some extra scholarships for computer science majors. The college continues to find support from the com- munity and alumni to help fray the costs for those pursuing the academic excellence Wartburg has to offer.

It ' s found In Engelbrecht Library, on the Art Building lawn, and In Neumann Auditorium, to name a few places. Several years ago o student who couldn ' t pay his bill was assigned to point the murals In the cafeteria. On the north wall Is a rendition of the Wartburg Cas- tle located in Germany. On the south woii Is a medieval town setting. A few years ago the lawn across from Engelbrecht Library was adorned with the Utterbocic cubes. As port of on art project Russ Nordman and Tim Kurtt built pryomid shaped structures to represent the resurrection of the cubes. Within Engelbrecht Library displays ore on exhibit. People from campus donate collections for a period of time. The intemotionai Club also put together a display describing Malaysia containing mops, books and a slide show. In Luther Hall, bulletin boards were hung on the wail across from the Controller ' s Office to display photographs and drawings done by students. Sev- eral of the photographs which were displayed received awards from various contests. One of the photographers is Keng Yip Loo who took most of the pictures on these color pages and printed oil of them. The Artist Series brings Intemational talent such as the Royal Winnipeg Ballet and the Smithsonian Jazz Repertory, continues to be popular with students and the Woverly community. Convocations featuring such celebrities as Coi- mon McCarthy, columnist for the Washington Post, brought many interested people to Neumann Aud- itorium. McCarthy spoke his mind on a multitude of subjects spanning from soup line serving to on old homeless lady named Mary IMng just outside the White House gates in Washington. D.C. Campus organizations provide many cultural opportunities also. The orchestra gives o monthly concert and does a young artist concert in which area talents hove a chance to perform, the choir song for the National Choral Director ' s Convention In Nashville, Tennesse and shared their talents at home concerts, the bond performed a Stars and Stripes Forever concert, and the Castle Singers gave o Valentine ' s Day concert entitled Lollpops Roses at Carver ' s Restaurant and In the cafeteria. Students may consider Wartburg the middle of nowhere, but the chances for cultural opportunities ore many. 7 Student involvement. Extracurricular activities Icept trie students busy outside of class. Friends are nnade withi people met in class, whiere ttiey work or where tiiey live, but many find nicties in tiie college community through membership in a club or organization with others who share the same interests. More than 60 groups are listed as registered stu- dent organizations on campus, and they focus on subjects ranging from finding dates by computer matching — The Missing Bytes and SAC — to serving the Lord through Bible study sessions in CLM. FCA. and Campus Ministry. The Wartburg Democrats reformed to promote the campaigns of two women candidates, and the Student Activites Committee provided several double features as part of the film series. A few clubs have been around since Wartburg moved to Waverly In 1935. Some traditional groups, such as College Republicans, have seen their pop- ularity wane. International Club and KWAR, on the other hand, returned to campus this year with renewed enthusiasm, drawing many more members and support. KWAR ' s future, however, was in the hands of the FCC as a result of the campus adminis- tration ' s decision to keep options open for the instal- lation of a cable television station. The license was renewed through 1 990. There is on on-going tradition which deserves mention. Clinton One South dispatches the God- father and his Mafia men to home Luther basketlxjil games. They enter the gym to the tune of Dragnet. When Wartburg plays at Luther. One South dribbles the ball to the game. In recent years, the floor has enlisted the aid of the cross country team. Dan Hus- ton set a new running record this year — 1 9.6 miles in 1 9 degree weather and in 1 0 inches of snow. 8 Wartburg always does well in sports competition and this year was no exception. The men ' s cross country team won the conference title beating Luther 35-37. Luther has won 1 7 of the last 21 meets and had held the title for 1 1 consecutive years. The women ' s team also did well, winning the Simpson Invitational and placing 13th at the district meet In Peiia. The volleyball team finished third In the MAC. The coach was pleased with their performance and said her team had Improved 100 percent since the beginning of the year. The men ' s basketball team avenged Its loss at home to Luther by beating them 68-52 on the road. The rivalry between these teams brings out the best and the worst In fans. One Luther mite wrote an LC on his chest and waddled around in a diaper. Wartburg fans depend on the Mafia to keep the proceedings orderly. The game was so popular, the senate provided a charter pep bus for the trip. The football team went to the Division III NCAA play-offs for the first time. They won the right to go by win ning the conference title which included beat- ing Central 41-14. Central was ranked 8th in the nation for the Homecoming game. The Knights lost a disappointing game to Bishop College of Texas In the opening round of play-offs. All the teams did well and are covered more In depth in the Athletics section. But the athletes aren ' t the only people Interested In sports. It takes many hours of time devoted by coaches and student managers to help a team Improve. Cheerleaders practice several hours to prepare to lead the chants at games. The pom pon squad helps cheer at games, and provides entertainment during halftlme. The pep band plays music to Inspire players and fans and to let the other team know when a touchdown Is scored In Warfburg ' s favor at the football games. And. of course, there ' s the par- ents and other people who spur the athletes on to victory or defeat, and either way. Wartburg people love their Knights.

The majority of students are lowans, but that Is a small one. Illinois. Wisconsin, and Minnesota continually send several students to Wartburg. Almost 10 per- cent are International students, the majority of them from Malaysia Illinois Is a great place to live. Is heard by many lowans who promptly reply. Well, why ore you at Wartburg then? Each student has his own answer. My pxirents graduated from here ... My brother ' s here ... The people were friendly when I visited ... l got a good scholarship ... ! didn ' t want to be a Norseman ... Why not? The youngest student attending Wartburg is 16 years old. Proving a variety of age groups exist, sev- eral older students formed the Nontraditionals. One student is a retired doctor who tumed 84 during the year. Most of the Nontraditionals live off-campus and hove retumed to or started college. Some, however, are on campus and clinging to old ties to the now dead Chrysalis program. Both Idnds of student opted for a different education than traditionally received by 1 7-22 year old high school graduates. The students aren ' t the only personalities seen on campus. The Den crew, cafeteria workers, mainte- nance, administrators, secretaries, and faculty own some of the smiles students see everyday. The campus is diverse, but the personalities are traditionally special to Wartburg. ri w Abev : Coach Don Canfleld discusses strategy wltr assistant Don Lewts at tt)e Central game.

(t e cam- pus is quiet during the summer months, but much activity continues. Maintenance woricers wortc feverishly to ready dorms and other buildings for the retum of students In the fall. High school students travel to the wrestling and basketball camps, and to the summer registration days. Several students attend the summer sessions which were changed from 6 weeks to 3 and 5 weeks each. Most of these students live off campus. Wartburg was also the campground for bicycle riders participating In TOGIR (The Other Great Iowa Ride) which was formed when RAGBRAI (Register ' s Annual Great Bike Ride Across Iowa) grew too large. The ride tours small Iowa colleges. Wartburg Is quiet during the summer, but staff and students are kept busy.

One of the most special traditions at Wartburg Is thie opportunity for spiritual growthi. Campus Ministry, CLM, CAC, FCA, Spiritual Emptiasis Week and Ujamaa offer students ttie chiance to learn more about their religious selves. The Clown Troupe also provides service to the Lord in the form of mime. Once the clowns put on their make-up, no words are uttered. Communication takes place In the form of skits, music, and with the help of a leader who wears no mask. The troupe Is popular with the young and old, and even utilizes the talents of the campus pastor ' s two children. Whether prayer Is done In silence or with a group, Wartburg supports the effort. Individual groups meet and hold Bible study sessions. CLM groups make outings to churches to spread their love of Christ to others. Spiritual Emphasis Week allows students to participate In many activities such as marathon relay runs, games, and services. Ujamaa places the emphasis on helping others, and earns money for self-help programs. The American Lutheran Church backing is impor- tant to the college, but not forced on students. Chi- cago Folk Services are held in which members from any congregation are welcome to take commun- ion. Bus service to area churches Is provided on Sundays during the winter. Many international students are Moslem, and aren ' t pressured by the Christian atmosphere. Christianity Is an Important tradition at Wartburg, made obvious by the tears shed during the Candle- light Service, and the beautiful music and text shared during Christmas at Wartburg.

The speakers were scheduled to speak throughout the weekend so students could benefit from the talks. The English department held a roundtable discussion with Charles Lutz, director of the office of church and society for the American Lutheran Church. Lutz explained to the discussion group how he felt his English degree from Wartburg prepared him for his career in the church. I could have done anything with this degree, and judging from your (the group ' s) responses. I am right, Lutz said. Many graduates of the English program explained the John Hawley outruns the Grinnell player to control the ball. jobs they now hold as being anything but just English. Some of the jobs mentioned were: police work, advertising, library management, teaching college and freelance writing. Other departments said the receptions were well received and plan on continuing the tradition. The Keynote Address was given by Harold Hughes, who Is responsible for the Hughes Foundation in Christian Outreach. To accompany these Friday night activities was the traditional Kastle Kapers and 20 queen coronation. Kostle Kapers was a connbination of nnusical and theatrical talent withi more of neittier ttirown in to keep ttie audience off guard. Ttie Castle Singers provided several musical numbers and also sang for ttie crowning of ttie queen. Between ttie first and second Kastle Kapers stiows Carlene Schiipper of Ackley was crowned thie 1983 Homecoming Queen. Stie was attended by candidates Marta Claussner, Miriam Naig, Ctieryl Otirt. Nancy Schimunk, Annette Piazzon and Andrea Olson. Schiipper ' s escort was senior Steve Schiulz. Saturday was a busy day for alumni. In thie morning, ttie parade made its way from ttie Waverly courttiouse to ttie campus mall. Leroy Red Voigts, a 1948 graduate was ttie Grand Mar- stial. Voigts, a lawyer withi the Des Moines firm of Nyemaster, Goode, McLaughlin, Emery, and O ' Brien, P.C., had not missed a Homecoming parade since his graduation. Also featured in the parade I were Congressional candidates j Cooper Evans and Lynn Cutler. The candidates were popular jwith the kids along the parade route as head bands with feathers and balloons were passed out. Popular with the Wartburg crowd were the athletic teams. The football team beat Central 41-14 and the men ' s cross country team won their meet at the Waverly golf course. The women ' s cross country team and the soccer team didn ' t fare as well, but added to the excitement of the day. Also on Saturday were the reunions of classes ' 43, •44, ' 45, ' 57, ' 62, ' 67, 72, and ' 77. These classes then met for the Alumni Oktoberfest at the 4-H Building at the Fairgrounds and later danced at the Izaak Walton building to the music of Sage. On Sunday, a Homecoming Worship Service was conducted by campus pastor Larry Trachte with President Robert Vogel preaching. The Homecoming weekend was brought to a close by the combined efforts of the choir, band and Castle Singers with a concert held in Knights Gymnasium. The football team is successful in attempts to stop Central ' s offense, winning thie game 41-14. Queen candidates from I to rfront row are Andrea Olson. Marta Claussner, Miriam Naig, and back row Carlene Schiipper, Annette Piazzon, Cheryl Ohrt and Nancy Schmunk. 21 What happens to Wartburgers by CHRISTIE LEO and DIANE ROCHE Like the ugly duckling that turned into a swan and the frog into a handsome prince, some dreams do come true after four gruelling years in college. The idealist college freshman who arrives with a suitcase of grand ideas soon learns the harsh realities of the years ahead. It ' s not an easy path. The college years are when cer- tain priorities have to take precedence over others. Con- crete decisions have to be for- mulated. These are then trans- formed into goals. In a relatively small-sized col- lege like Wartburg, student ' s goals and aspirations are often as diverse as those of students from larger-sized learning institutions. Although a greater number of Wartburg ' s student population is composed of native lowans, the demographics will quickly reveal a composition of individ- uals whose concerns, values. lifestyles, Interests, tastes and goals vary dramatically. Of course, these qualities change subtly over the four-year period. Academic, mental and emotional progress alter a student ' s perspective as the col- lege experience wears on. Incoming freshmen view col- lege life as a new challenge, a chance for individual develop- ment and developing an inde- pendent attitude. For the major- ity, it is the first time away from home. Some adjust to their new- found independence in a positive sense — learning and making the best of their mistakes. Others cling to their family ties endearingly.. Being away from home offers freshmen the opportunity to find themselves. They are pitted with a school of new faces- students with different personali- ties and backgrounds. The focus then is on meeting and making new friends. Freshman Joy Bowden per- haps put it in a nutshell: I ' m learning what it ' s like being on my own and making major decisions that will affect my future. Two chief concerns that most freshmen relate to are grades and a major field of study. As the weeks progress, and the workload increases proportion- ately, a number of freshmen begin to question the validity of college education. Some con- template the idea of transfer- ring, or dropping out of school. These temptations are sporadic— and at times, become serious issues for debate. No one promised that col- lege life would be fun, fun and more fun. Depending on the attitudes of freshmen, the initia- tion to a four-year college cur- riculum can be a mixed bless- ing. After a tedious five-day week, freshmen— like most other students— look forward to the weekend for therapeutic recuperation. There ' s too much homework to catch up during the week- ends, says freshman Jeff Peters. By mid-week, I ' m ready for a break. A Wednesday night pil- grimage to one of the local bars with my friends makes more sense to me. Short-term goals for most freshmen involve fulfil ling course major requirements. The lure of making something of oneself has something to do with the long-term goals for most freshmen — a degree that can help with my career aspirations. Sophomores are perhaps faced with more challenges than they had bargained for. In their second year, students find themselves in a predicament of having settled well into college lifestyles— and involved in var- ious extra-curricular activities- 22 after four years of oollege? but still in a hiole of indecisiveness. Sophomore Kari Perino sums it up as a trying period whien students need to learn about ttiemselves ttirougti friends and interactions withi ottier students, study pressures and being independent. By ttie second year, most students are aware ttiat aca- demics take precedence over ottier activities, says Perina. At thie same time, ttiey also tend to be more defiaht, maybe as a result of pursuing a sense of individuality. Thiey are inclined to do thie thiings thiat are impor- tant to thiem, and not wtiat thieir peers expect of ttiem. Maintaining good grades coupled wIthi an increased study load also contributes to thie general feeling of disillu- sion. Soptiomores are more likely to question ttie impor- tance of college education ttian most othiers. Survival of thiis crucial period often ligtitens ttie load in the ensuing years. Sophomores also realize that it ' s not a smooth sail through college. There are more fence- sitters who prefer to indulge in their favorite pastimes during weekends, and make the best of any available leisure time. The search for self-identity continues relentlessly through- out the college years as time, age and experience lend a better perspective of what lies ahead. As a junior, my main concern is finding out more about myself — especially in relation to my career and what I want out of life, says Denise Hermanstorfer. Juniors are more prone to think of long-term plans, includ- ing career preparations, and even marriage. Others in their third year of college take on a deeper inter- est in a wide range of subjects. They seek out information about world affairs and social issues that concern the future of mankind. At the tailend of the college years, seniors concentrate on job opportunities, realizing that each passing day brings them a little closer to graduation— and finally the day when life in the real worid begins. Few seniors, if any seriously consider the alternative of graduate school. The decision to continue a few more years in a similar-styled environment is seen by most as wearisome. The more common concern among students at this point is money. We have student loans to pay off, so the decision to con- tinue is really a painstaking one, noted a senior. You can ' t plan for the future without money. Why even bother? Aided by the Career Devel- opment Center (CDC) and counsellors, most seniors are prepared for the world outside Wartburg with a definite set of plans— whether it is going to graduate school or finding a suitable job. ' My primary goal as a senior is to find a decent, well-paying job, says Lori Henderson. I ' m optimistic that after four years of college, the chances of finding a good job isn ' t impossible. That ' s because in a private col- lege such as this, we are given an even break for self- development. It lightens the burden when we get out of here. There are ample alternatives for the graduating senior. But each one needs to be exam- ined closely before the right choice is made. Life after college is the real test of what students learn dur- ing their tenure here. Students leave school with acquired knowledge, a set of values, strong convictions, and well- rounded personality that will assure them a fighting chance in a competitive worid. 23 And the rivalry lives on by DAN RUND Wartburg and Luther have long been feuding cousins in the sporting arena. Despite the playful antics and ruthless fan- fare both colleges sha re in competitive sports, there is another more serious side to the story. There have been incidents recorded through the years when things were carried too far. It ' s safe to assume though that the competitive nature between these two institutions has indeed added to the glamor of sports. There ' s a strong, healthy rela- tionship between the players, coaches and the fans, said Wartburg ' s Athletic Director John Kurtt. This fact has been docu- mented over the years, but both schools work extremely hard in keeping it the great social event It is. In recent years, these two A depantsing of the Luther student body president is in order after a Wartburg win. Lutheran affiliated colleges have enjoyed all the spoils a great rivalry has to offer. But it wasn ' t always the spectacle it has grown into. The heated rivalry as we know it today began in 1967 when Luther traveled to Wartburg in a contest to determine if Luther would reign as undisputed champions or share it with the host Knights. The game was sold out on the Tuesday afternoon prior to the game. Knights Gymnasium, packed to the rafters with 2.500 hysterical fans, was set for this championship battle of the Iowa Conference titans. Just before the game, a few Luther followers found it neces- sary to hoist a banner with the words Burn the Wart on it. That probably wouldn ' t have been so bad had the crew not decided to circle the gym wav- ing their personal eulogy. The banner nor its notorious wavers made it past the Wart- burg crowd. With that unforgiv- able episode, it seemed like each college was always trying to see whose shenanigans could out-do the other ' s. The rest is history. I ' ve always had fears that the fans would get out of control, Buzz Levick. head basketball coach, commented. The game is still the most important aspect of the rivalry, whatever sport it be. Wartburg went on to capture the much heralded title, which spawned a string of nine con- secutive conference champion- ships, a feat equalled by only the UCLA Bruins over the same period of time. The Wartburg-Luther rivalry match-up has always been the great event on our schedule. Levick added. It provides the Jay Bean was the godfather this year for C!| nnakes an entrance to the Dragnet TV serie victors with much deserved glory for the rest of the year. Over his 18 years at the helm. Levick ' s teams have enjoyed bragging rights 29 times out of 38 games, including a winning streak of 21 straight, dating from 1967 through 1975. which until last year ' s co-championship was the last time the Knights had won a conference crown. Wartburg holds a convincing advantage in the series with 55 victories out of 89 games. Levick, oddly enough, actu- ally has a better won- lost record on the Norse ' s home floor, se- curing victory 78 percent )ne South ' s Mafia tradition. Ttie Mafia ong. Of the time as opposed to 72 percent in ttie Knighits Gymnasium. Last year ' s 48-7 gridiron trouncing by ttie Knighits snapped a three-year drought and was the biggest win by the Knights since their 24-0 shutout of 1973. Over the past decade, the two rivals have split, each winning five games. With neither team establishing domination, Luther head foot- ball coach Bob Naslund felt that is the major reason why the gridiron clashes are so exciting to the participant. On the football field, you never know who ' ll win from year to year, Naslund said. Both teams seem to focus on the game, and our students are very much aware that Wartburg is on our schedule. Naslund agrees that both institutions work extremely hard in keeping the rivalry in perspec- tive, but that outside forces are quietly adding fuel to the fire. The only problem we see is alcohol related, Naslund said. The longer we can keep the booze away from the arenas, the better the relationship will become. The time is right to draw upon the positive factors of the rivalry and omit the problem. The bottom line, according to Nasland, is that both institutions love to compete against one another. It ' s natural for this type of rivalry to exist, Naslund con- tended. We ' re practically neighbors, we ' re sister schools and we both love competition. Who could ask for more? But what would a rivalry be without the students? After all. it ' s the fans who follow the teams, who support and stand by them when times are tough. The fans, by filling the arenas, actually give incentive to the players to strive harder. I ' m sure the players will agree it ' s more fun playing in front of packed house than playing in front of a half-empty arena. Any Wartburg-Luther athletic meet is almost guaranteed a full house. Tradition runs deeper than the athletes and coaches. Regular attractions like the famed Mafia and fabled Luther Run are just samples of offer- ings by the Wartburg students, and in particular the efforts of Clinton Dorm ' s One South. What makes these attrac- tions worthwhile is that both generate excitement, said Brian Staude, an avid supporter of the rivalry. When people come to a Wartburg-Luther bas- ketball game, they want to be excited. Staude calls One South home for the school year and regularty paticipates in his floor ' s activities when Luther rolls around on the schedule. He believed the basketball run to Luther stands out above the rest. It ' s being able to say that a handful of guys ran a basket- ball all the way to Decorah and had a great time along the way, Staude said. We ' re as dedicated to our traditions as the basketball team is to win- ning the game. For Staude, the two occasions that are unforgettable are Tony Burbach ' s last-second shot to beat the Norse at Decorah in 1982 and last year ' s gridiron whipping. In the long run, Staude hoped both institutions can keep the rivalry under control, but is afraid fatal incidents will inev- itably endure. As long as things ore kept well in perspective and nobody gets hurt, the rivalry should go on forever, said Staude. I don ' t believe either school hates the other, but as far as I ' m con- cerr ed, it ' s still fun to heckle Luther. 25 This religious group doesnt just by JOY BOWDEN We are ' called to be clowns ' and will be ' fools for Christ ' s sake. ' This is the theme for Wartburg ' s Clown Troupe. One of the special things about the clowns is that the troupe reaches so many peo- ple in so many different ways. These are the feelings of the Clowns ' student leader, Brenda Barth, We are not afraid to go ahead and make fools of our- selves for Christ ' s sake. That is what the clowns ' way of ministry is all about. Wartburg ' s Clown Troupe was organized in the fall of 1978 and has been ministering to people through the use of mime and actions of love on Wartburg ' s campus for four years. Their audiences range from babes in arms to the elderly, from learned scholars to spe- cial people with learning dis- abilities. Yet, whatever the audience, their message is the same, that the peace, joy and love of Christ can be spread by simple actions of love and with no words at all. To further emphasize this point, the clowns permit no talk- ing among themselves when they are in clown make-up. The white face symbolizes death of our old self, and the colored make-up symbolizes our new role in life, explains sophomore Clown member Karen Megonigle. Each indi- vidual determines what their colored make-up and costume will be. A clown church service is planned by the entire group, and a parable they wish to per- form may be rehearsed beforehand. It is usually more effective if it is spontaneous, relates Mego- nigle. Part of a clown service may go something like this. A cross with a nail is put in front of the congregation. Each clown holds a piece of paper on which he has written down his sins. One by one, each clown goes forward and places his sins on the cross. The congregation then is al- lowed to write their own sins on a piece of paper and is given the opportunity to place their sins on the cross also. By doing this, they are reminded that Christ died for us on the cross so that we may have eternal life and our sins will be forgiven. After they have placed their sins on the cross, a string which has been holding their wrists to- gether is cut with a scissors that has the name Jesus on it, again further symbolizing our salvation in Christ. Such is the way of Clown min- istry. No words are spoken, yet the message comes across loud and clear. Barth recalls, When we spell out the word ' praise ' with human bodies, it is generally the young kids that pick up on it first. The Clown Troupe works in Pamela Zickuhr, a junior, shows a sad face as part of her clown fellowship. Once in makeup, the clowns are not allowed to communicate vocally. 26 clown around simple ways and their ministry is effective. It is thiis simplicity thiat meant so muchi to Karen Megonigle as a member of thie clowns. Clowning is part of my own personal ministry whiettier I tiave make-up on or not. It helps remind me how simple Christ was. In the Bible it says we all have to become like children. No one has to think or analyze a clown service. The meaning comes across through actions. For Brendo Barth, being the student leader of the clowns has had a positive effect on her life also. The meaning of the entire service ritual has been enhanced for me. The different parts mean something to me now. I hate to say it, but we too often go to church and almost recite our religion. In clowns, you have to be more deliberate with each part of the service so the meaning will come across. You think more. Both women remember their first clown experience as being special, magical and very unique. It was for this reason that junior Denise Hermanstorfer took her eighth grade Sunday school class from Redeemer Lutheran Church to the Clown Worship Service on Brother-Sister Weekend, March 1 8-20. Says Hermanstorfer, I wanted them to see a different kind of worship. The theme of our Sunday school class is ' Worship, ' and we have been learning about the different ways in which people serve the Lord. I thought the Clown Service would be an excellent example for them. The eighth graders talked about their experience in class the following week and had this to say about the clowns. Gretchen: I just loved it. I almost cried through the whole service, I loved it so much. Mickey: It gave us a chance to look at a different kind of worship, not just the way that we ' ve grown up with. Nancy: I thought it was neat, the way you could pick out the different parts of the service. Nancy is referring to the way the clowns present the eight parts of the worship service. The preparation, invocation, the confession, absolution, praise, the sermon-a skit in the form of a children ' s story or parable, the offering, and the benediction. During the bendiction, each congregation member receives a dot of clown paint to wear outside following the service as a reminder to continue serving Christ through all ways of ministry. Hermanstorfer was pleased with the effect that the clown service had on her eighth grade class. They could relate to the clowns ' way of worship. At church they tend to get bored merely listening to the service. The skits caught their attention, and they learned so much with no one saying anything. I feel the clowns have a really neat ministry, continued Hermanstorfer, One thing that I really like about them is the emphasis they place on the community aspect of the church. We often hear the belief of community being preached at us, but the clowns really practice it. Everyone at a clown service is really open and the clowns themselves are in and around you. And so the clowns, without using any words at all, have reached many people through their unique way of campus ministry. And that is exactly what Wartburg ' s Clown Troupe is — special, magical, unique and a very positive part of Wartburg College. Ujamaa week in March raised more than $1500 for materials to be used in school building construction In Tanzania, according to Sharon Ager of Luana, student chairperson of Ujamaa Week. High bid items from the Ujamaa Auction were a progressive dinner donated by Wartburg ' s political science department faculty, a strawberry cake donated by Dr. and Mrs. August Waltmann and Swensen House ' s Suite Hearts. The St. Patrick ' s Day Volleyball Round Robin Tournament included 18 teams and raised $180, according to Becky Kimmerle Berry, director of the Learning Resources Center. The most Irish team, Faculty 1 1 , won a shamrock cake and Olson ' s team scored the most points. Twenty-eight groups participated in the basketball marathon and raised about $200. Raffled pizzas were won by the Fareway team. Ujamaa Week at Wartburg has a six-year tradition and has raised funds for Tanzanians to build more than a half-dozen village schools. 27 Will you marry me? , Owen Greenough, a junior, and Donita Baunnan, a freshman, enjoy the dating scene, perhaps more than some parents wish. by DIANE ROCHE and CHRISTIE LEO The gawky freshman who arrives with wide-eyed aspirations leaves college after four intensive years of classwork with a new-found maturity. There ' s another side to the story though. Social life, even among the most academically oriented students, is an inevitable encounter. The range and variety of social activities vary with individuals — but the dating game is hardly ever passed up by anyone. Dating doesn ' t necessarily connote any romantic link. At the same time, students indulge in dating as a means of getting to know the opposite sex — some with the idea of forming a meaningful relationship — but mostly as a means of social interaction. Wartburg, like most other colleges, is composed of students with diverse back- grounds — some married, some engaged, some who take dat- ing seriously and others who prefer playing the field. And then there are those who don ' t date, and yet another group who doesn ' t take dating, or anything else, seriously. Wartburg students agree that parties are a popular meeting ground for potential couples. Joe ' s Knight Hawk is also a popular hang-out. The Bank, a pub which used to feature live bands but which has since restricted its clientele to under 18 ' s, was yet another frequented place. I ' ve been dating a ' special ' guy for a couple of months. said a sophomore. But a college romance is different. Most times, it doesn ' t work out that way. I have this fixed idea that Wartburg is much like a high school set-up. All ' couples ' seem to want to do is have fun — nothing more. Another sophomore, who also compares Wartburg to high school because of its small size, has a different point of view: There are better opportunities to meet someone special, he said. In high school, students interacted for about six to seven hours daily. It ' s like home here. For several months, we ' re practically caged in with a group of students — and there ' s every likelihood that a student will meet someone of the opposite sex whose interests are shared mutually. He adds that on-campus parties are a great way to meet other students — but hardly a place to meet anyone who is serious about a relationship. Life-long relationships among college students is a rarity, although statistics indicate that a fairly good number do get hitched after college. 28 Absolutely not! College seems to be the perfect place to meet your future mote, said sophomore Trudle Heikklla. It seems almost conducive. Students here generally share similar interests and backgrounds. It doesn ' t always turn out to be a bed of roses. Relationships either develop and blossom into marriage, or pan out after a short while. In an all-or-nothing situation, people don ' t seem to be contented with happy mediums. The few who take this middleground say it ' s a time for finding out more about oneself and how to relate to others. I like guys, and I like to date. said a freshman from Illinois. I enjoy parties, dancing, and I look forward to fun weekends, but I didn ' t come to college to get married! She also said that if she got caught in a relationship, she would leave her partner after college for selfish reasons. I come from a small town, and I don ' t want to end up there, she said. I could have easily settled for the homemaker role on a farm. But I don ' t want that. I plan to live in the city — that ' s where my goals are. Dating is, for many students, a social activity. To some, dating is an extension of fun and games. It depends on the individual really. Some like to take dating as a serious process. Senior Lori Henderson, a social work major, sees the situation in a different light. She has a long distance boyfriend, I but having served as a resident assistant for a year, she has been able to observe some i insights about the dating and romance scene at Wartburg. Romance is a competitive game at Wartburg, said Henderson. Giris generally fall into two distinct categories. On one end of the scale, they just like to party with no strings attached. The other half seem desperate to graduate with an ' Mrs. ' degree. The majority of the females at Wartburg fall between these two extremes. Despite their indifferent attitudes about romance, it ' s inevitable that in the back of their minds, they secretly long for a meaningful relationship. The guys too harbor a frivolous attitude toward the dating game, added Henderson. They are either too wrapped up in their schoolwork, or in themselves, to take any of the giris seriously. Few seem to be serious, but there are exceptions. In summary, students generally feel good having fun with friends without the constraints of a relationship. Peer pressure and competitiveness seem to be hardcore obstacles for those who do, or would like to, date the opposite sex. 29 Artist Series 1982-83 by BECKY 6ERTH and FRANK GIBBARD This year ' s Artist Series featured entertainers from Egypt, the United States of America, Can- ada and Norway. The series began in October with the Festival of the Nile, a group of Egyptian dancers and musical performers. This was the first American tour for the group which has appeared in festivals in Europe and Africa. The dances performed ranged from Oriential belly- dancing to the whirling skirts of the zikr dance to women spinning around the stage balancing lit candelabras on their heads. A stick dance engaged men in turning arcs through bamboo poles, and a combat dance led into the flashes of the knife dance finale. Tribal folk music, handed down from father to son and played on a variety of Egyptian musical instruments, accom- panied these dances. Exotic and colorful costumes added to the festive mood por- trayed by the dancers. SMITHSONIAN JAZZ REPERTORY ENSEMBLE The Smithsonian Jazz Reper- tory Ensemble highlighted the second Artist Series performance. Under the direction of Bob Wilber, the eight musicians recreated jazz from the 1 920s through the 1940s. The program was divided into three decades with representative music from each. The first portion, the 1920s, fea- tured the works of Bessie Smith, Ferdinand Jelly Roll Morton. James P. Johnson, Thomas Fats Waller, Louis Armstrong, Sidney Bechet and Eva Taylor. The second section, the 1930s, included the music of Duke Ellington, Coleman Haw- kins, Bunny Berigan, Benny Goodman. Teddy Wilson, Gene Krupa, Jack Teagarden, Billie Holiday and Lester Young. The final section, the 1940s, included more Goodman plus Charlie Christian, Thelonious Monk, Dizzy Gillespie. Charlie Parker and Sarah Vaughn. While jazz repertory works are usually painstakingly tran- scribed from the original record- ing, the individual musicians are free to embellish, ornament, or change their parts so long as it is done within the style and the approach of the original. Evidence of careful study was clear to the audience when the musicians skillfully ended the Wardrobe mistress for the Royal Winnipeg Ballet Karen MacPtiee of Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Canada, is called ' fVlacfVlother ' by the company members. 30 concert with a jam session. Wilber. clarinet and soprano and alto saxoptione player as well as director, was voted Musician of the Year by the readers of International Jazz Journal Magazine. He was al so voted No. 1 clarinet, No. 1 soprano sax. No. 2 alto sax. No. 2 arranger and his Swingin For The King recording was voted No. 3 for Record of the Year. THE ROYAL WINNIPEG BALLET The third Artist Series, held January 1983, almost wasn ' t. The Royal Winnipeg Ballet dancers voted, one hour before the 8 p.m. curtain, to cancel their performance because they objected to the condition of the floor. According to the contract signed by the ballet company and Wartburg College, a min- imum 1 5 8 space requirement for the stage was needed. The requirement was met and the ballet began at 8:55 p.m. aproximately two hours after the vote had been taken to cancel. The dancers performed three numbers including Allegro Bril- lante by George Balanchine, Five Tangos by Hans van Manen and Rodeo by Agnes de Mille. Allegro Brillante is set to the first movement of Tchaikovsky ' s unfinished Third Piano Con- certo. Set for two principals and an ensemble, the ballet has no narrative. Balanchine described it as everything I know about classi- cal ballet — In 13 minutes. Five Tangos is considered by critics to be one of van Manen ' s most successful works. The music by Argentinian Astor Piazzolla explores tango rhythms through electronics and jazz as well as other con- temporary techniques, while van Manen ' s choreography explores the tango dance form. Rodeo is an amusing work that tells the story of an awk- ward and tomboyish cowgirl hopelessly in love with the head wrangler at the Burnt Ranch. The company received a standing ovation regardless of the delayed start of the show. SEDMARA ZAKARIAN Russian-born pianist Sedmara Zakarlan was the performer for the fourth Artist Series of the season. Her program included Sonata in A minor, K. 310 by Mozart; Two Marzurkas, Polo- naise in C sharp minor, Opus 4, No. 2 and Polonaise In A flat major. Opus 53, all by Chopin; Ten Visions Fugative, ' Opus 22 by Prokofiev and Five Preludes by Rachmaninoff. Zakarlan, who emigrated to the U.S. in 1974, was a soloist in Russia before moving here. Her activities included regular appearances with the Lenin- grad Philharmonic as well as performances with the sympho- nies of Riga, Tallinn. Kharkov, Minsk, Yerevan and other cities. She also was a frequent guest on Leningrad radio and televi- sion and made a recording of works by contemporary Soviet composers. After emigrating to the U.S.. she spent two years as an artist- in-residence at Grinnell College and in 1976 joined the faculty of Obertin Conservatory in Ohio. Her U.S. performances have included recitals in New York ' s Tully Hall. Washington ' s Area Stage and Philadelphia ' s Mandell Theatre. BERGEN WOODWIND QUINTET The first prize winners of the 15th International Competition for Chamber Ensembles held in Colmar. France, in 1982 pro- vided the final program for the Artist Series. The Bergen Woodwind Quintet was a change from the pre- viously announced Norwegian Wood Quintet. The switch was made by the Royal Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Norway and Scandinavia Today after the Bergen Woodwind Quintet won its first prize in International competition. The prize included a medal for the best perfor- mance of the Andre Jolivet Serenade which was played for the Wartburg audience. Also on the program were Anton Reicha ' s Quintet, Op. 91 , No. 3, Samuel Barber ' s Summer Music, Op. 31 and Paul HIndemlth ' s Kliene Kam- mermusik. Op. 24. Active since 1946. the quintet was made up of soloists f rom the Bergen Symphony Orchestra. The group has performed regularly throughout Europe, and its repertoire has included traditional quintets as well as many works of new music. The quintet has recorded for .the Contemporary Music from Norway series and has appeared on both radio and television for the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation. In addition to their work with the Bergen Quintet, these musi- cians are teachers at the Ber- gen Conservatory of Music and have performed with such orchestras as the Oslo Philhar- monic, the Stavanger Sym- phony and the Jeunesses Mus- icales World Orchestra. 31 Convocations 1 983 by SHARON AGER and CAROLYN McCLURE Former U.S. Senator Dick Clark and Washington Post syndicated columnist Colman McCarthiy tiighllghited Wartburg ' s cwKJrd-wjnnIng convocation series. Thie series was judged ttie beat by ttie S H Foundation In 1982 ans was given ttie Eugene R. Beem Award. CORINNE WHITLATCH Thie first convocation address of the 1 982-83 year was delivered by Corlnne Wtiitlatcti, staff member of ttie American Friends Service Committee ' s (AFSC) Middle East Peace Education Program. Wtiitlotcti gave a personal assessment of ttie Middle East conflict, based on a study tour stie completed in thie Middle East. Whiitlatch concentrated, In her address, upon the problems and tensions Indigenous to the Middle East but also indicated that superimposed upon these difficulties is the super power conflict. She reminded the audience that over half of U.S. aid goes to Israel and Egypt and that many feel that the settlement building on the West Bonk is a result of U.S. funding. Whitlatch also emphasized that the Israeli-Palestinian hostility is one of the more crucial factors involved in continued unrest. Problems of allocating and controlling scarce resources, contention over the role of religion In relation to the government and differences in the various types of governments found In the Middle East, according to Whitlatch. Proposals of possible resolutions need to come from the people themselves, Whitlatch said. I feel these proposals must recognize that justice needs to be done for the Palestinian people. NEIL SAMPSON Neil Sampson approached soil conservation issues from an ethical, a political and an eco- nomic perspective during his keynote address, Farmland or Wasteland: A Time to Choose, at the Stewardship of Natural Resources Conference Wed- nesday, Sept. 1 5. Sampson sold, I ' m not trying to Indicate that we ' re running out of agricultural land, but that we ore wasting our resources. Common sense tells us there Is a limit. We have replaced labor with capital, machinery and tech- nology, at a time when there is a surplus of labor and a shor- tage of money, Sampson said. BOB BERGLAND That inter-relations of U.S. agriculture and the international world market was the subject of the Sept. 16 convocation, featuring Robert Bergland, former U.S. Secretary of Agriculture. Bergland addressed one of many topics considered at the Stewardship of Natural Resources conference. Bergland explained that U.S. agriculture is affected by International political events and he advised listeners to perceive the United States as being dependent upon other countries for agricultural markets and products. He explained that the United States must export agricultural products, but the ability of other nations to purchase these exports is affected by the inter- nationalist monetary system. This year we have record breaking yields at home but devaluation abroad could curb exports, Bergland said. Bergland also gave examples of economic sanctions preventing agricultural soles by the United States to other countries. In order to alleviate this situation, Bergland proposed reconsidering the government ' s role and also developing a system In which nations could provide treaties circumscribing their behavior and agreeing to make their markets available. Bergland also advocated establishing a system of conservation easements to regulate land use. ALLEN PAGE Former All Pro defensive tackle Allen Page, now an attorney for a Minneapolis firm, addressed a convocation audience on Sept. 22, concern- ing the inadequacies of our educational system In Its rela- tionship to athletes. The chief problem Is that our educational system Is not demanding enough of the ath- letes, Page explained. There ore too many athletes who are unable to read or write after their eligibility is used up. Page added that too often major college athletics has become big bu siness. This prob- lem is amplified because ath- letes are highly visible role- models for young people and the attention given athletes creates false perceptions and expectations In young people 32 about professional athletics. We hiave to convince young people ttiat education is just as important as athletics, Page said. And we, as a people, must develop better role- models for our youngsters. There are many available. We have to show them that there is hope outside the athletic arena and reward them for their academic efforts just as we do for their athletic efforts. LESTER THUROW Conscience and Capital- ism was the subject of the con- vocation address delivered Oct. 1, by Lester Thurow, an econo- mist with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who is also the contributing econom- ics editor of Newsweek maga- zine and the author of Zero Sum Society. Thurow maintained that Amer- ica ' s economic problems are interrelated with the world ' s economic difficulties and that cooperation in creating eco- nomic policy is the only means of resolving these problems. There are two major eco- nomic problems, one facing America and one facing the entire world, according to Thurow. The question facing America, he said, is How does society learn to become economically competitive when it hasn ' t had to work at it for the past 80 years? Thurow said that Americans must realize that they are dependent on the rest of the world. He also added that the world economic crises have been building since the Great Depression. We had no solution for the inflation problem other than stepping on the economic brakes. Through the 1970 ' s nearly every country followed the braking policy, Thurow explained. Now, we have braked so hard that GNP (Gross National Product) is at a standstill all over the world. The problem is world wide. he said. It extends beyond our jurisdiction. It will take cooperation in setting policy since no one can do it alone. DICK CLARK and GERT J. GROBLER Former U.S. Senator Dick Clark (D-lowa) and Gert J. Grobler, consul-general of South Africa, debated their divergent views during the Nov. 1 convocation. The debate was one of two convocations featuring Clark during his stay as Scholar-in-Residence. Grobler admitted that South Africa faces a number of problems but he insisted that the government is working toward self-determination for all and that South Africa needs continued support from the U.S. government. Clark argued that apartheid is still in place in South Africa and that little progress has been made. There have been minor changes made but none go to the heart of the problem, the key to which is political power. There is no power sharing, Clark said. The blacks may vote in their homelands but have no real power, either eco- nomically, politically or conHnu d n xt pag« 33 Convocations 1983 CLARK and GROBLER eonHnii d diplomatically. The homeland govemments are completely subservient to the central government. We can ' t prescribe their government, but we ought to use trade and investment to bring pressure on them to change, Clark said. We above all the major powers in the world have given support to apartheid. We ought to be able to say, ' Do as you like, but we will disengage if you do not change. ' We ought to be able to say, ' We will not contribute to that society. ' I for one, believe in human rights. DAVID and DARLENE KALKE Missing was the name of the movie students watched Jan. 4, then discussed Jan. 5 with David and Darlene Kaike, Wartburg graduates living in Chile during the overthrow of the Chilean government. The film portrayed the cruelties and injustices inflicted by a South American government, and told the story of an American citizen missing in Chile shortly after the coup took place. The disappearance and subsequent execution of Charles Horman and the investigation by his father. Ed. and wife. Beth, was shown in the movie. The film was nominated for an Oscar by the Academy for its achievement as a documentary. The Koikes knew Charles Horman and his wife while living in Chile, and first met Ed Horman while living in Manhattan some years after leaving Chile. Charles Horman was executed only weeks after the coup in September 1973. Missing claimed that he had stumbled across important information, showing the U.S. government was involved in the overthrow. Charlie Horman was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Darlene KaIke said. She said that to understand the death of Horman, understanding what was happening in Chile at the time was important. She explained that much work hod gone on prior to the coup in September 1 973. She said the Nixon administration began the policy of economic stabilization and virtually wrecked the Chilean economy. For David KaIke, the movie brought back emotions which he thought he ' d left behind in Chile. The movie was a very emotional experience. he said. It brought back fear, and showed us again how close we were to death. It brought to the surface the emotions we suppressed in Chile. COLMAN MCCARTHY Colmon McCarthy, a nation- ally syndicated columnist for the Washington Post, urged students and faculty to develop a sense of outrage toward social injustice at the Jan. 12 convocation. McCarthy expressed his con- cern for the homeless and needy. The current hard times have lenghtened the soup lines and people in them are getting younger and younger, he said. We ' ve become accustomed to this. McCarthy said. If you refuse to adjust to it. then you ' re branded as maladjusted. He said his heroes are those who think this adjustment to social injustice is wrong. McCarthy said people need to start making chioices of wtiat ttiey want to become angry about and whiere to apply ttieir skills toward working for chiange. An outspoken pacifist, McCarthiy opposes President Ronald Reagan ' s effort to build up ttie military. Because there are other ways to solve prob- lems than with violence, he suggested a peace resistance movement and condoned conscientious objection. McCarthy said people aren ' t educated earty enough in ways of non-violence and need to hear this option in the class- room. He would like to see more courses offered in peace studies as a degree in colleges across the country. YECHIEL ECKSTEIN Christians ' views toward Israel affect the relationships between Christian bodies and Jews, Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein, national co-director of Interreligious Affairs for the Anti-Defamation League of B ' nai B ' rith, told a convocation audience, Jan. 26. Rabbi Eckstein said that Jews welcome those who support Israel. He explained that two his- torical events are central to the Jewish world view: the Holo- caust, in which over six million Jews were murdered by Hitler ' s Nazi soldiers, and the birth of Israel. Both of these are central to Israel foreign policy, accord- ing to Eckstein. The Jews have a commit- ment, almost an 11th Com- mandment, never to allow a Holocaust to happen again and thus, Israel is considered the best hedge for survival of the Jews, he said. Any threat to Israel is challenged. Eckstein emphasized the importance of continued dia- logue between Christians and Jews. After all, Christianity is rooted in Judaism, he said. Jesus was a Jew. There is room to work together, particularty on such wortd wide issues as hunger, war and peace and nuclear armaments. We have to come to grips with each other. ADA DEER Ada Deer, leader of the Menominee Indian tribe and a University of Wisconsin lecturer, told the Feb. 2 convocation audience that one big disease in America today is the lack of involvement. Society may be in a down cycle. Deer said, but individuals can make a change. We all share the responsibil- ity of making improvements in the wortd around us. Deer stressed that an individ- ual has to have the strength of convictions to bring about change. With that comes the responsibility of not quitting at one ' s convenience when the going gets difficult. There are times when you must look beyond your own personal happiness to that of the whole, Deer said. Deer encouraged students to take on some social concern of their own and actively wori for progressive change. She sug- gested writing letters to con- gressmen, representatives and editors. Deer ended by saying, There are lots of challenges out there. Go out and make your mark on the wortd. PAUL GROSSHEIM and JAMES McGAHA In a dialogue, March 2. with Col. Paul Grossheim, deputy director of Iowa ' s Division for Adult Corrections, Dr. James McGaha held the position that society needs a policy com- mitment to alternatives for incarceration as a response to social problems. Socialization must occur outside prison, Dr. McGaha, executive director of the Micah Foundation, told the convoca- tion audience. We should look at the root causes of crime, and then find ways to deal with those problems in the com- munity, perhaps through com- munity programs and half-way houses. Grossheim countered by say- ing that Iowa already has one of the best records for com- munity program and that those who are confined need to be confined. He admitted, however, that the present system faces a number of problems including overcrowding. Though both agreed that pris- ons do not rehabilitate inmates, inmates rehabilitate themselves, McGaha also insisted that prisons are not a deterrence to crime and there- fore, alternatives to the system must be sought. JUSTIN MAEDA The importance of primary school level instruction was emphasized by Dr. Justin Maeda, a Tanzanian presidential adviser, who spoke for the March 16 Ujamaa week convocation. Funds from 36 Convocations 1983 MAEDA conHnu d Ujamaa week activities go toward thie construction of a primary schiool in Tanzania. Education in thie primary schools is a powerful tool for our country, Maeda said. It provides instruction in many required skills ttiat enable individuals to lead a more meaningful life in thieir communities and it also inculcates values and ideas important to continuing our plans of self-development. Maeda explained ttiat thie seven years of primary education must be a complete education in itself since only a small percentage of students are able to continue to secondary sctiool, vocational schiools or universities. Most of thie primary school students return to their agrarian communities. Many of the primary schools have school farms where students are able to learn better farming techniques, Maeda said. These farms also reinforce the idea of self-sufficiency since they directly involve students in a productive process that is income-generating. In fact, in some cases, these farms raise enough to pay 25 percent of school expenses. A major concern for the Tanzanian government is supplying equipment for these schools, according to Maeda. He added that it was this concern that prompted Operation Bootstrap to aid Tanzania. This year, the money raised by Ujamaa was contributed to Operation Bootstrap, based in Wayzata, MN. Maeda concluded by saying the Tanzanian government continually evaluates the education to determine how well it is meeting its goals of providing vocational training and also imparting the ideas so important to maintaining Tanzania ' s experiment in self-development. DONALD ARDELL The last convocation address was delivered by Dr. Donald B. Ardell in conjunction with the annual Health Faire Wednesday, March 30. Ardell ' s topic was How to be Healthy, Happy and Sexually Fulfilled? He also conducted two seminars entitled Planning for Wellness in Voecks Auditorium of the Becker Hall of Science. Ardell has authored several books including High Level Wellness: An Alternative to Doctors, Drugs, and Disease. He defined wellness as a technique or process for creating a lifestyle richer, fuller and more exciting that the usual standard of disease avoidance. It involves basic principles for optimal physical and psychological health in five areas: self responsibility, nutrition awareness, physical fitness, stress awareness and management and environmental sensitMty. Ardell, a marathon runner, also conducted a Run with Ardell at 7 a.m. before his convocation address. 36 Poisoned Plays by CAROLYN McCLURE ARSENIC gr OLD UVCE Joseph Kesselring ' s 1941 comedy, Arsenic and Old Lace, was performed by the Wartburg College Players Thursday through Sunday, Nov. 11-14. The comedy told the story of Abby and Martha Brewster, played by Christina Norris and Joy Bowden, two of the nicest old ladies anyone could hope to meet. However, they had one rather bad habit — they killed old men in the belief that they were helping them find peace and happiness. The Brewster sisters were assisted by their nephew Teddy, played by Brent Jaeger, who truly believed he was Theodore Roosevelt. Teddy buried the yellow fever victims in the Panama Canal locks he dug in the family ' s cellar. Another nephew, Mortimer, played by Jeff Peters, unwittingly discovered his aunts ' secret. This discovery provided the basis for three acts of laughter. Other cast members included: Joe Mundfrom as the Rev. Dr. Harper; Jim Davis as Officer Brophy; Mark Steiert as Officer Klein; Denise Hermanstorfer as Elaine Harper; Steve Alberts as Mr. Gibbs; Gilbert Grim as Jonathon Brewster; Gorden Hoffert as Dr. Einstein; Tony Price as Officer O ' Hara; Steve Adams as Lieutenant Rooney; and John Kreilick as Mr. Witherspoon. Peggy Hanfeldt of Waverly was the director of the play. THE FIREBUGS The Firebugs, a German play written by Max Frisch, was The members of the chorus (I to r Jamie Clemente. Brent Jaeger, and Karen Megoni- gle) ask Gottlieb Biedermann why he is allowing his own destruction to continue. performed Thursday through Sunday, March 24-27. The Firebugs was written as a radio play in 1953. Play direc- tor Steven Palmquist of Waverly said it became a drama because of its popularity. Palmquist chose the play to balance the fall comedy pro- duction Arsenic and Old Lace. He considered The Fire- bugs a heavy play which developed themes of stupidity, fear, nuclear arms proliferation, self-discipline and the removal of vice from life. The Firebugs is an allegory about a man who permits evil and destruction to invade his home. These invaders eventu- ally destroy him and his household. Palmquist said an epilogue usually accompanies the play, but he ended it before that. He said the epilogue is very anti- church. In it, Satan becomes the employer of several people. I ' d rather leave it up to the audience to decide what happens to the characters; so much is possible, Palmquist said. The cast included Jeff Martin as Gottlieb Biedermann; Trudie Heikkila as Babette. his wife; Joy Bowden as Anna, a maidser- vant; Steve Baskerville as Sepp Schmitz, a wrestler; and Kim Hale as Ellie Eisenring, a wait- ress. Brent Jaeger played a policeman and a Ph.D. and was a member of the chorus Karen Megonigle was Mrs. Knechtling and a member of the chorus. Polly Jo Chipman was the leader of the chorus of fireman and Jamie Clemente was a member of the chorus. 37 Dedicated to Sam, a dedicated by MICHELlf SANDEN The leather skin has been tautly pulled over the bones. It has been finely etched by the chisel of time, to the point he looks like a walking cadaver. But Sam Michaelson is anything but dead. Sam is, well, he ' s Sam. The best word to describe him may be a repository. He is knowledgeable in many areas; he likes to do many things; he has experienced two lifetimes in his 57 years. He also doesn ' t like a flurry of attention. I hide in corners. I ' m shy, Sam says as he settles into his seat in the English Department chairman ' s office. Sometimes that ' s hard to see, for when he ' s in front of a class, he can make things come alive. But for Sam, the classroom is another situation. On the Wartburg campus, he may be best recognized for his musical interests or his work with international students. And while they are both important facets of his personality, there ' s much more to him. He loves languages. Right now, Sam says he ' s back to writing poetry, any kind of poetry. He writes about people, animals, abstract ideas — for him, anything can be the subject of a poem. I ' m finding my own voice right now. My poetry is still corny, he explains as he lights another Old Gold and holds it lazily. The smoke curling around his head adds to the ghostly impression of his appearance. He likes to read, and his English Department office is lined with bookselves. Some of the shelves have books stacked two or three deep, and the subjects are diverse: linguistics. drama, classical literature, war literature, poetry. Sam teaches human expression, a course which covers literature, music and painting. His literature knowledge is obvious after only limited conversations. In class, he can share stories about different paintings, or relate vignettes about the creators, which make them easier to remember. For students who are interested, Sam can make the material in the class alive and be more than a list of names and wori s to be memorized. And when it comes to music, Sam really brightens up. He was already 13 years old when his family brought a piano into the house. I was considered somewhat of a prodigy, Sam says with a wink on his face. Sam says he played all over his home state of Minnesota until the outbreak of Wortd War II. During the war, he was an infantryman and organist in the U.S Army. He says for him the war ended May 8. 1945. On that day, Victory in Europe Day, Sam says he received an offer to go to Frankfurt, Germany, to serve as a theatre organist. He took the job, and described it as very posh. It was great. He came back to the States and started to take more piano lessons. But I had too many questions created by the war, Sam Michaelson. world traveller and self-nnade philosopher, adds to the knowledge of student Denise Klumpner in the world literature class. 38 man But He Does A man for all seasons and acquainted with the nigtit, he walks in his thinking and reasons with life. (you will say ' but how his arms and legs are thin ' ) when he shuffles in mornings with wrinkled twinkle-eyes and mildly asserts he knows little more than you - but he does. by Lee Kruger he offers as explanation for putting his serious music studies aside. He began to study other areas, but continued to play and teach piano on the side. He went back to school and earned a bachelor of arts degree from Augsburg College in 1950. He has also token graduate courses at the University of Minnesota. I never intended to get a degree. I went to school because I wanted to learn. he says. He married his wife Marilyn in 1948. He soys he started dating her when he was 14 and she was 1 3, and I ' ve never seriously dated anybody else. Marilyn and Sam ore both involved in working with international students. For Sam, this interest began at the same time he was working in Frankfurt. He soys his job involved only two or three hours of required work per week and in his free time he began helping the displaced people the war created. There were millions of them and I ' m not stretching the point at all. As you helped people, you heard their life story. The first woman he tried to help found her lost son on the first attempt. It didn ' t always work that way, Sam soys, but that ' s a thrilling experience so you keep doing it. He continued to work with the displaced people until he left Germany. After he graduated from college, he and Marilyn were asked to come to Germany to help more of the war ' s displaced. My initial job was to do whatever possible to organize on paper who was there and what they could do, Sam soys. He described that experience as giving him a unique sense of history. He and Marilyn returned to the States. But that hod whetted both our appetites, so they sponsored many refugees in the Minneapolis area. Sam come to Wortburg in 1966. Eventually the refugee and international work continued at the college. Wortburg was the first college to admit refugee students in the United States, Sam soys with some pride. He points out the second to do so was Lebanon College, PA, where current Dean of Faculty Dr. Edwin Welch has taught. The hardest people to place were the single young men, Sam soys. The college hod to decide Would they take a chance? They realized many of the refugees wouldn ' t moke it through college, but they could at least teach them English. They decided (to admit them) right away, with no quibbling. Once we took a chance, other colleges took a chance. We were devising courses as we went along, Sam soys, since this was so new to the college. Sam continues to work with international students, and likes the association between the Foreign Student Advisor ' s Office and the English Department. He ' s still working on his music, and soys for the post 30 years he ' s been composing the Great Norwegian Symphony. The war still colors his life; he readily admits it as his greatest influence, especially combat and being a soldier at the libertion of Dachau, one of Hitler ' s concentration camps. And while he continues to learn, and continues to shore that learning with others here, he brands himself a generolist who dabbles in everything, on expert in nothing. 39 How many times have I heard by POLLY JO CHIPMAN Telling a white lie is not a virtue by a yardstick. But whien it comes to missing a class for a variety of reasons, students generally concoct some of thie most imaginative stories and pass them off as valid excuses. The word excuse itself sounds fishy. It is a rarity that a student survives the four-year rigmarole in college without attempting a game play at test- ing a faculty member with at least one excuse. If it ' s legitimate, (and the numbers are countable), then it ' s not an excuse — it ' s a reason. Some students are naturals in the excuses game. Others have to try a little harder. And then there are the exceptional cases. The latter include those who can win favor with a pathetic expression. Wartburg ' s faculty know the game all too well. Although they don ' t condone excuses of any sort — whether it ' s missing a class, or turning in a paper late or postponing a test —there are a few who take it light heartedly. The degree of discipline varies from extreme to mild penalties. Dr. William Shipman, asso- ciate professor of economics, is obviously an old hand at the game. He usually lays the ground rules on the first day of class, and immediately extin- guishes any student ' s hopes of attempting an excuse no matter how incredible. I ' ve heard all the excuses before folks, says Shipman. It ' ll be hard to convince me that an excuse is legitimate. You better think twice before even cooking up an excuse. Unless he deems the excuse to be reasonable, or at least believeable, Shipman has a unique way of dealing with shirkers — a grade penalty for each day a paper is late, and an overall grade reeva- luation for those who miss classes. The adage, honesty is the best policy, usually gets a fair trial from most professors on campus. There ' s no point in trying to hatch excuses, says a Wart- burg veteran. I ' ve been here for many years, and I must have heard excuses rang- ing from overeffete to ridiculous. If a student dares admit fault, and face the consequen- ces, I ' m likely to be more sympathetic. English professor Ken Weitz prefers confronting students with a particular problem rather than allowing space for excuses. To be effective, the excuse must be plausible, says Weitz. It must be within the realm of possibility. Professors are not a gullible lot. They can tell the dif- ference between a bizarre excuse and the truth. The excuse-makers are more or less an elite aggregate on campus. Those who are suc- cessful in their first attempt are likely to repeat them the first opportunity they get. Dr. Doris Cottam, chairman of the sociology department, says she cannot remember any uni- que excuses but adds that illness and family problems were the most frequently given excuses. Ken Weitz listens to Todd Hansen ' s excuse. Those who were ill are prone to come up with the same excuses, notes Cottam. I tend to believe all excuses because it ' s really the students choice whether he wants to come to class or not. Sam Michaelson, chairman of the English department, prefers to take excuses at face value. He contends that stu- dents have an obligation to attend classes — but it ' s their prerogative. I keep hearing the same, wornout excuses over and over again, he says. It ' s their loss if they miss classes because what is covered in class will not have the same impact in a less for- mal environment. 40 that one before? students are becoming more intentlve witti ttieir excuses de- spite the persistent use of run-of- the-mill excuses. They will hove to complete the assigned work even though an excuse will pro- long the time limit. But students see the need for more time as a perfect bait for devising an excuse. Given the frequency of this scenario, students are becoming aware that old excuses often need to be rede- signed to suit a particular given situation. A student once approached me and said he couldn ' t take a test as the pages of his text were ripped off, recalls Yvonne Losch, chairman of the foreign languages department. Another student called me to say he couldn ' t come to class as he had had too much to drink the night before. At least he was honest. Some students are so frank it ' s almost humorous. Dr. Marshall Johnson, chairman of the reli- gion department, recalls an unusual student whose frank- ness was overwhelming. When I questioned the stu- dent as to why he rarely attended class, he told me he was a late sleeper. The class met at 1:30 p.m. Excuses students give today have matured over the years. Some even make an effort to have a credible plot. One of my students took a bus to visiJ his girlfriend over the weekend but somehow got on the wrong bus. recollects Dr. Dan Thomas, assistant professor of poitical science. He ended up miles away from his girl- friend ' s place and hod to stay in a motel over the weekend. He had to have money wired to him. By the time he returned it was Tuesday and he had missed a test given the day before. In the early seventies, students argued instead of making excuses. A favorite expression of that era included getting my act together. Students today, however, prefer to put their imaginations to the test. The only problem is that an excuse is an excuse. No matter how one looks at it, the students eventually end up losing. Junior Jim Dallman lies in bed with a fever of 101 degrees but when he told his professor, he was not believed. Doilmon decided togo to doss the next day and by the end of the week, others in the class were ill. 41 Whaf s the most popular spot on by TOM SELLEN Lurking around the mail room in the wee hours of the morning, one can sense an air of excitement and anticipation. You can hear anything from screams of joy to the cries of: Will somebody please put something in my mailbox? Who would have thought that the social and mental well- being of a college student could depend on such a trivial thing as receiving one measley letter? For students, getting a letter from home can make the difference between a rotten day or a great day, according to Lewis Buzz Levick, director of the Student Memorial Union. Some kids are waiting outside the mall room at nine o ' clock In the morning for their mail. Sometimes I can ' t help but feel sorry for them because it literally crushes some students when they don ' t get any mall, Levick said. I wish parents could see the expressions on these kids ' faces when they do get mail. ..I really think they would write to them more often. he added. College students aren ' t the least bit particular about the quality of their mail either. In fact, they ' ll take just about anything that happens to find its way into their mailboxes — including unpaid bills and maybe even a pink slip in some desperate cases. Anything helps to make a person feel they are still a part of the scheme of things. One day I overheard two girls agree to write each other so they would be assured of getting a letter the next day. I think a lot of students even look forward to getting the Trumpet every Monday night, Levick said. Although Wartburg ' s history goes back some 1 30 years, it seems many people are still not able to use the traditional spelling of the college name. Everything from Wartberg, Warburg, Wartbert, to Worterberry College has turned up with the rest of the mall. Over the years, an odd variety of items have also appeared in the mall room. Television sets, refrigerators, records, books, magazines, license plates, tennis roquets, even sandwiches and doughnuts have all made their way through the mall room at one time or another. If you think that just getting a letter doesn ' t do enough for a student ' s ego, wait until you meet one who has just received a package of any importance. These kids are simply delirious when they get a package in the moil, Levick said. An innocent bystander would think there was a fire in the union after nearly being trampled by one of these crazed lunatics hurrying to get to their dorm room. The only problem is that these students usually make about three laps around campus with the package under their arm before the curiosity finally drives them back to their room. But what about the people who are sorting moil and stuffing boxes six days a week to keep the students, Buzz and Uncle Sam happy? They ore the ones who report to work at 9 a.m In the tiny room which, in many respects, serves as the social gathering spa for the Kevin Zehr, senior, and Lonnie Nichols, freshman, load sonne of the packages that students will proudly show their friends once received. 42 campus? The mail room Wartburg students. It ' s one of the best jobs on campus, according to 4-year veteran Kevin Zetir, better known by his peers as Zero . We take a lot of crap from people but we all get along, which makes the job fun. Sophomore Gary Walljasper, a 2-year company man with the mail room, agrees: I really enjoy it and we have a good time doing our job. I ' d sure rather be doing this than working in the cafeteria, he said. However dedicated the mail room boys may be, there are certain gripes that go along with any job. One thing that irritates me is when the students get mail they don ' t want, they ' ll shove it back through the box and it drops on the floor. Usually I ' ll just stick it back in the box again to make them mad. Walljasper said. The students who don ' t get any mail seem to think it ' s some fault of the workers, according to Zehr. I always said if I had a penny for every time someone asks me why they didn ' t get any mail, I ' d be rich, he said. Getting box numbers mixed up and students simply forgetting to put the box numbers on the envelopes can mean headaches for some of the people in the mail room. It takes time to look up the box numbers, Walljasper said. For people like Kevin, who have worked there for four years, this isn ' t much of a problem. He seems to know almost every person ' s box number on campus by heart. Like any post office, the mail room is usually the busiest around Christmas and Valentines day, but it is also swamped after winter and spring breaks with care packages from families at home. We get a lot of shoe boxes filled with things the kids forgot at home. It ' s kind of funny, but the guys seem to get most of these packages, Levick said. According to official mail room records, the most packages received in one day was 191 on Feb. 13, 1967. The record for the most packages received by a single person in one day is 10 and still holding. One lucky student in ' 74 received 16 letters in a period of one day — all from the same person. Talk about boosting someone ' s ego. During the slower mail days, the workers can be found shooting baskets into their Nerf hoop in the mail room or finding some way to get even with other students. Sometimes I ' ll recognize someone ' s voice outside the room and when they reach in to get their mail I ' ll snap their hand with a rubber band or grab the mail so they can ' t pull it out of their box, Zehr said. Besides stuffing mail boxes, the mail room boys also provide entertainment for other students. According to reliable sources, one day as the mail was being shoved through the window to the mail room one of the workers dropped the whole box of mail and it all came fluttering through the steel grates right outside the window of the Jousting Post, much to the amusement of the Media Law and Ethics class which was meeting in the room. From now on, size requirements may be in order for future mail room workers in the event someone may have to squeeze through the tiny window to retrieve any runaway mail again. Through it all, the Wartburg mail room will continue its fluent and efficient operation even through the busiest of holidays. It ' s nice to know that some things never change, because no matter how quickly the letters make it to their rightful boxes, we Wartburgers will wait.. .and wait... 43 German education versus Am by BENNO ESCHWEILER An editor ' s note — Eschweiler is a foreign exchange student from Bonn, Germany, writing about tiis impressions of the U.S. and German educational systems. For more than 20 years the Wartburg - Bonn, West Germany, exchange program has been running. Every year two German students appear at Wartburg College, study for a year than disappear again. Unlike Malaysian or Indone- sian students, who may stay all four years, the Germans in most cases cannot graduate at Wartburg during this one year stay, though they often are classified as seniors . The courses they took in Bonn either do not meet Wartburg require- ments, or they have not taken enough of them. A glimpse at some aspects of the German higher educational system may help to understand the peculiarities of the German students ' background. The Wartburg students going to Bonn every year experi- ence quite a different university system there. In Germany, the universities are public institutions, the pro- fessors are employed and paid by the state and there is no tui- tion. A student living in an apartment in the university city has to pay for his room, his books and private expenses only. Many students get money from the state if they can prove that their parents ' income would otherwise not allow them to study properly. This system has some influ- ence on how German students view their studies and their lives as students. As they do not have to worry so much about their financial situation, they can take their time studying, and many of them do. Kristi Rolland and Nancy Bertz, both seniors, share some of their experiences with Renee Carey and Benno Eschweiler. both exchange students from the University in Bonn, West Germany. Rolland and Bertz studied in Germany last year as part of their major. 44 erican education German students are imma- ture in this respect, says senior Kristi Rolland, a German major whio studied at thie University of Bonn, and shie refers to thie stu- dents ' dependence on thieir parents ' money even whien thiey are old. Whien thiey start studying, German students tiave tiad 1 3 years of schiool education, and thiey are aged 18. 19 or 20. Before attending a university, German students are expected to hiave finishied thieir basic or general education so thiey can concentrate on their field of study from the first semester on. After four, five or more years, students finish their studies with degrees comparable to an M.A. or M.S. degree in the U.S. There is no degree comparable to the B.A. or B.S. in Germany. German universities usually do not acknowledge any courses taken on the under- graduate level in the United States. Even a BA. or B.S. degree will not be more than a prestige success for the student. An undergraduate year in the Uni- ted States is, for most German students, a year of different experiences, not necessarily one of huge academic progress. Paul Kann, another Wartburg senior with one year of Bonn experience, says that German students have a more mature attitude toward studying. They may not have as much freedom of space there, but what they do have is more social free- dom, according to Kann, refer- ring to the generous state loans and allowance. Studying in Germany gener- ally means being on your own. The professors expect a great deal of self-initiative from their students and accordingly there are not many reading or writing assignments. This leaves the student with more time to develop his or her own thoughts and deepen what he or she thinks is important. Rolland says, You have to have self motivation and self discipline if you want to get ahead. Being told what to write and read from session to session is therefore one of the things hardly understandable to Ger- man students. German students are her- mits, was Kann ' s impression when he was in Bonn, and he is supported in his opinion by other Wartburgers who have been abroad for a year. There is obviously a different way of establishing relationships. When entering a typical Ger- man house, it is noticeable soon that all rooms have doors, and that these doors are expected to stay closed. This is what struck a lot of Wartburg students who lived in dorms in Bonn. Not that German students are unfriendly. If there are problems someone will try to help, but quite often that is it — and the doors close again. The stu- dents, says Rolland, are so much used to privacy that you could die in your room and nobody would notice. This different attitude toward relationships may be explained by the physical pattern of the German universities. In contrast to American campuses where everything is concentrated in one spot, in Germany university departments may be scattered all over a city. Most students live privately, likewise scattered all over the city. The students met would be those who live close and who attend the same classes. But as classes usually consist of two hours per week only, it is difficult to establish relationships with many students. A positive aspect of the reserved attitude toward friend- ships is that if someone is finally called a friend, it is often a long- lasting and meaningful friendship. The word friend is used less often in Germany than in the U.S., as Rolland noticed. There are lots of aquaintances, some good aquaintances, few friends and maybe one or two very good friends. From this perspective it some- times appears that American students are more superficial in making friends or calling a person a friend. 45 Pranks may be ' alarming ' to by BETH WAGNER Imagine having a bad day at Wartburg. You studied into thie nigtit for a test. Finally, you drag yourself off to bed. You awaken to ttie sound of an alarm screaming into he silence. You take a shower and prepare yourself for class. Little do you realize that you are the victim of a prank. One of your best friends has set your alarm to ring hours before you planned to wake up. Consequently, you are alarmed to realize that it is 4:30 a.m. rather than 7:30 a.m. Several hours later you are seated in the third row waiting for the professor to distribute the exams. When you see the first few questions, you realize that all the studying you did the night before was of the wrong chapters. In the end. you do poorly on the exam. During lunch you experience even more trauma. As you fill your tray with the choice food from the Wartburg cafeteria, someone stacks your troy so you accidentally drop the glasses only to watch them shatter on the Hoor. You find yourself at the mercy of 300 Woftburg students who point, jeer and ctap while your face reddens onti you attempt to walk away from the scene. Finally, you ore back in your dormitory. As you walk down the hall, you have a strange sensation similar to those who must walk death row. You notice people peering at you OS you walk through the hall. Once you get to your door and put the key into the lock, you realize that once again you are the victim of a prank. Pranks at Wartburg are a common experience to all who attend the college. The big trick during the high school years was to stack the lockers so that all the books would come crashing down on the person who opened the door. Pranks in college are much more Sophomore Heidi Roelfs pours water into Dixie cups placed on the floor in an unsuspecting student ' s room. Newspapers are later added to the mess and the cups of water are spilled before the student figures out he ' s been had. 46 many students Freshman Eric Stahlberg adds the finishing touches to the pimp job he did he did on his brother Ron ' s room. Ron swore he would later get even with Eric and his cohorts but the threats hove yet to be carried through. Sibling rivalry at its worst? advanced. As one RA said, the trick in college is to fill one of thie large garbage barrels with water and lean it against a door. Conse- quently, thie person inside thie room will open thie door and gallons of water will flood the roonn. Pranks can be performed in other places beside the dorm room, but the room itself seems to be the most popular place for a prank. Door knobs can be covered with anything sticky such as melted marshmallows, rubber cement, glitter and glue, chocolate and shaving cream. The door itself can be written on in permanent or washable ink. One of the more popular tricks is to fill an album cover with shaving cream and smash it under a closed door. Those who are lucky enough to be inside will receive a shower of shaving cream which will spread throughout the room. Inside the room there are sev- eral pranks to perform. Usually they are called pimping jobs rather than pranks. In this case, a room can be filled with newspapers, the dresser drawers can be exchanged with other dresser drawers on the dorm floor. Stereos, televisions and radios will be turned to the highest volume. Even the bed will be filled with anything that feels uncomfortable next to the skin: rice crispies and crackers are a few of the favorites, although the worms of April will make anyone squeal. Some pranks are only per- formed on special occasions such as birthdays. For example, people will walk out of their room on the morn- ing of their birthday to find a large sheet of paper covering the doorway. Similarly, one can find a stack of cans in fi-ont of the door. The birthday person not only crashes into the hall, he or she also wakes up everyone on the floor. Bathroom shower tricks are also popular among students. One never knows when his clothes will be taken from the shower room. The curtains hanging in the room are a good sight to see when one is considering streaking down the hall. Another shower trick is to pour a bucket of water on the person in the shower. This trick is usually followed by having a picture taken while the victim screams in embarrassment. Some students perform tricks that last throughout the year. Two giris have been giving each other the large Code of Iowa book at times when they least expect it. Two other students have been having surprise birthday cele- brations for each other — but never on the right dates. All in all, the pranks are the fun part of Wartburg that keeps dorm life interesting. So next time you find your mattress in the phone booth or you find your entire room has been moved into the bathroom, don ' t fret. It is only a friend trying to tell you how much he or she cares about you. Only, this per- son is telling you in a unique way. 47 Graduation is a ' family ' affair for by CAROLYN McCLURE Another class leaves Wartburg, but ttils class hias a sense of family according to its adopted father, Daddy Vogs. President Robert Vogel. Earlier in the year, the senior class was honored with a trout supper presided over by Daddy Vogs. He said that he felt the class was part of his family and in a small way it was. Vogel became acquainted with many members of the class as his son was one of the graduates. Fitting the family theme to the graduation ceremonies was then an easy task. The Rev. Waldemar Papa Gies, associate professor of religion, told the graduates that he was also a member of the family. He too was leaving Wartburg and ending a 29-year career at the school. He spoke of How to leave Wartburg and said that it was best to go filled with hope M and a willingness to share that hope with others. The Commence- ment speaker was Dr. Ronald F. Matthias, who is also a member of the family. He graduated from Wartburg College and had a cousin in the 1983 class. He also served on the Wartburg faculty for many years. He said that people ' s lives are not their own to do with as they please, but are God ' s. He hoped that the class members would become actively involved In the churches of the communities in which they will live and work. He also said that happiness is not a place to arrive at, but a means of travel. He wanted the class to know that life would be filled with uncertainty as well as happiness. He also ventured to say that older is not necessarily wiser, just wearier. He wanted to tell the class not to be too hard on parents ' values, but to look to them for guidance. Why should Colleen Kamke gives the response from the gradu- ates of 1983. Jodie Hennessy gives her social work orofessor. D.D. Starr, a hug after Commencement exercises. Professor Glenn Fenneman looks on. 48 class members and friends our lives be bounded by the limitations of our parents ' realities, Matttiias said. In hiis class, many people just continued in their parents ' footsteps without ever dreaming. He recognized the value in an education that allowed the class members to choose something different from the parents, yet still receive the emotional inspiration needed to succeed in the chosen field. Matthias serves as the director of the division for college and university sen ices for the American Lutheran Church. Colleen Kamke, a summa cum laude member of the class, gave the response from the graduates and reflected on some of the things the seniors will take with them in the form of memories. She spoke of the WOW (Women of Wartburg) date with Chuck Offenburger, a columnist for the Des Moines Register. She told of Vogel ' s arrival on campus, the construction of the new building, the end of Wartburg Hall and things that every person who has attended Wartburg can relate to such as finals week and sad goodbyes. Kamke also made reference to the banners seen in Neumann Auditorium since Vogel ' s arrival. In his opening convocation, Vogel explained what the sayings on the banners meant. Kamke used the sayings to end her address saying, For All That Has Been — Thanks, For All That Will Be - Yes. For all that has been for the class of 1 983, things like Vogel ' s arrival on campus in 1980 and not one outdoor commencement since, the new grading system that caught some seniors by surprise, the installation of a new computer system and a new business administration center which will benefit those in the following years and the ending of a great career for a friend of the class - Papa Gies - thanks. For all that will be, such as receiving letters from friends made while at Wartburg, searching and finding jobs, embarking on adventures in careers that will spread the class all over the world and thanking parents and all those that helped them make it through the college, years, yes. The Rev. Waldemar Gies says goodbye to Wartburg otter 29 years ot service as a religion protessor. Mike Williams is Wortburg ' s first student to graduate v tti thiree degrees. B.A., B.M., and B.M.E. He is being congratulated by Pastor Tractite. 49 Foundation Laid, Core Courses by LIISA CARISTROM with excerpts from JULIE HIGGS, WARTBURG magazine It ' s just general ed. I can blow It off. I really hiad to work to get a good grade. I like thenn, but I can ' t say ttiat In front of friends. Ttiey would think I was weird. The 1982-83 school year marked the completion of the Installation of Wartburg ' s new general education program. The curriculum consists of three tiers of courses: foundational, experiential and Integrative studies. Instituted In 1980, the program is Intended to give students a general base knowledge. This foundational tier consisted of the beloved core courses of Human Expression (sometimes referred to as human depres- sions), Person and Society (known in short as P ' n S) and Natural World (otherwise known as naturally weird). As much as students moan and groan about taking these courses, they do teach students valuable knowledge and skills. Dean of Faculty Ed Welch says that an institution has to have a sense of its educational identity, and Identity Is best expressed in some kind of expectation or requirements for students. Part of Wartburg ' s Identity is that It is a liberal arts college. The core courses are designed. In part, to provide that liberal background. Stu- dents, however, are often more Interested in completing their major than they are In fulfilling general education requirements. Junior Pam Buhler criticized the core courses as not rele- vant to your major. Junior Steven Roys disagreed. We choose to come to a lib- eral arts college, so why do we complain about the liberal arts they make us take? If you just wanted a major, you could go to a university. Dr. Dan Thomas, coordinator of Person and Society, argues, It ' s a sad comment on college students that they are so practi- cally oriented instead of enjoy- ing class because it ' s interest- ing. The liberal arts side of a college education should invite students to suspend Instrumen- tal concerns and allow them to freely pursue, without guilt, questions of Interest to them. One aspect of the courses Is designed to give students a chance to develop their com- munication skills by writing and participating In classroom dis- cussion, says Herman DIers, who teaches Human Expression. Experiential studies is the theme of the second tier. A class that fulfills the experiential requirement offers students knowledge through the expe- rience of being involved with your learning. Such classes include scientific dissecting courses, fine arts courses In painting or music listening and foreign language courses. The students view these courses as primarily focused on providing Information. But the faculty views them as more process-oriented. Thomas suggests the core courses are Intended to have students be continually search- ing for answers, continually ask- ing questions. They ' re like an inoculation against lifelong Ignorance — with booster shots. Learning how to learn is as Important as the knowledge. One problem students cite Is the failure of the cores in com- municating their purposes. Jun- ior Gus Schlll complains they are disorganized. This is partly because they ' re still in the beginning stages. He said, It seems nondlrectlonal. 52 Final Tier Added Natural World professor Stephen Main jokes withi a biology class. There ' s nothing that holds the course together. They need o method In their madness Instead of bouncing all over. He noted Natural World as a particular culprit In terms of dis- organization, but faulted all the cores for jumping from subject to subject. Dr. Steven Main, coordinator of Natural World, admitted It was a problem, I still don ' t think we have fully conveyed the themes that run through the course to the students In a way so that they see how the themes run through the different topics. And we ' re working on that. Sam MIchaelson, who teaches Human Expression, said. One of the things we keep getting on evaluations Is that ' this had nothing to do with my major. ' And that ' s misinfor- mation about general educa- tion requirements. They ' re not designed to enforce a particu- lar discipline — a particular major. We ' ve got to be more general than that. I think we have to keep talk- ing about what general educa- tion requirements are. about what makes us a liberal arts college as opposed to some other kind of vocational school. There ' s been quite a bit of improvement. Sophomores are generally much more accept- ing than freshmen. Sophomores seem to recognize that every thing doesn ' t have to fit with them precisely in their major. While there may be an acceptance of the general goal of liberal arts, students have less understanding of other goals. Dr. Fred RIbich. one of the Person and Society pro- fessors, said. The three cores as a whole really end up sending a message to freshmen and sophomores that education is more than simply consuming knowledge and spitting it back out on a test occasion. Classes of the third tier revolve around the theme of integra- tion. Faith and reflection, inter- disciplinary and capstone are all classified under the third tier. The purpose of these integrative courses is to show students that the world Is not fragmented and compartmentalized. Rather our world is inter-related and tied together. Another concern regarding the structure of the cores is the necessity of choosing a level at which the cores are aimed. The cores have been criticized for being at too high a level for many freshmen and sopho- mores. With three tiers, students express wishes that the level of difficulty would also be tiered. Dr. Kent Hawley. dean of stu- dents, says, On balance, we ' re better off challenging students their freshman year and break- ing them out of the mold. Oth- erwise you ' re just confirming that high school model for two years, and they don ' t get full advantage of their four years here. Michaelson agreed. I do think we try to stimulate them, grab them, make them think, worry them. There ' s no reason in the world that they should just sit there comfortably, not be challenged, not think. I think some courses should shake them up. Our theme song isn ' t ' Sheep May Safely Graze. ' I think it should shake them up a little bit. The courses should make the students conscious of their major in terms of a total picture and to approach and deal with problems in their fullness. said Thomas. Most students agree that Per- son and Society is their favorite class of the three. The reasons range from raising their aware- ness of the world and of them- selves to the dialectic method of teaching the class. Senior Salful B.

Human Expression professor Som Michaelson talks with foreign student Tong Linn from Malasia about ttie value of taking the core courses. The program is new to Wartburg, started in 1980. 54 Out In The Real World by TRACY BONSTEAD The theme Wartburg, Waverly, and the World is really evident in the types of activities student are doing off-campus. Wartburg ' s 4-4-1 system pro- vides a unique opportunity for a student to combine May Term and summer into an internship or field experience program. The benefits received upon par- ticipating in an internship or field experience are immense. The student receives a greater advantage in the job market because of a previous work experience. Employers are more willing to hire someone who not only has an excellent education, but who also has had some hands-on expe- rience in their field. At Wartburg there is an oppor- tunity for an internship in virtually every major. In some areas a field experience or internship is required. In others, the student is the prime initiator of his own personal program, receiving a great deal or very little help from his professor. Ann Aaroen, a business administration and economics major, used her imagination to find an internship opportunity. Aaroen went to the alumni office and looked up Wartburg alumni who were business administration majors. She looked up those who were in the Milwaukee area where she wanted to work. She then started calling and asking for interviews. Through contacting the alums I realized the great deal of loyalty there is toward Wart- burg, Aaroen said. Aaroen eventually got a job working at Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance in Milwaukee. She worked from May until August. Her job involved market research, computer operator and programmer, and giv- ing presentations. Not only was she paid for her internship positon, but she was offered a full-time job after graduation which she has accepted. I learned a lot from the job itself, Aaroen said. I appreciated my education more. It also made me more sure as to what I wanted to do. Some internships are required, such as stu- dent teaching. Shel- don Youngberg, a his- tory major, student taught at the Waverly Junior High during his last semester at Wartburg. This experience enabled me to get out and learn the real psychologi- cal part of teaching. I learned how I had to handle myself on the job, said Youngberg. Youngberg was responsible for four classes of 7th and 8th grade social studies and two classes of 7th grade PE. The first week I just observed and took notes on how the teacher handled discipline, classroom order, and discus- sion. Then I gradually worked up to teaching the class myself, Youngberg said. An added benefit of student teaching is that the teachers are able to get fresh, new ideas from the student teachers. The most important thing for me, Youngberg said, was that it opened my eyes as to what teaching is all about. It made me feel good about my deci- Dave Carlson, a German major, spent his freshman May Term in Graffing, Germany. sion to teach. Foreign language majors are also required to do an intern- ship off-campus. They must par- ticipate in a summer abroad their freshman year and they must also spend their junior year abroad. Dave Carlson, a German major, went to Grating, Ger- many, for his summer abroad. He took classes at the Goethe Language Institute. Stu- dents study both conversation and grammar. On weekends the students take field trips to various cultural events and places. It is better to learn a foreign language from the country itself, said Carlson. You receive more detailed instruc- cofiNniwd rwxt pag 55 Out In The Real World REAL WORLD eonHnu.d tion and you are able to prac- tice it everyday. Alttiougti most universities offer a junior year abroad, Wart- burg is unique in its offering of the freshiman summer abroad. It gives you an extra edge whien you do your junior year abroad. Since you ' ve been ttiere before you aren ' t totally lost and can enjoy yourself more, said Carlson. Bob Gaffney, a psychology major, did an internship at the (VIental Health Institute at Independence during May Term. Gaffney worked in the Crom- well Children ' s Unit. The first week he observed the doctors in one-on-one ttierapy. Then he was assigned four children to do one-on-one therapy. At first I was really nervous. Bob said. But I really got to like it. Part of his job included giving reports and evaluations, scoring test, and interviewing prospec- tive patients. I learned more at the Institute in one month than I have in three years of psychology in the classroom, Bob said. It helped me make my mind up, too. Now I want to go into that area of working with children. Denise Hermanstorfer, a jour- nalism major with an interest in religion, did an internship at the Iowa District office of the Ameri- can Lutheran Church in Des Moines. Her job included writing sto- ries for the Iowa District Hlllghts and the Iowa insert of the Luther- an Standard. She also edited, prepared copy, and designed pages. Hermanstorfer basically produced the publication from start to finish on her own. I found out that there are many more opportunities in journalism other than just writing for a newspaper or a maga- zine, Denise said. Although only a small sam- pling of experiences have been mentioned here, there are a vast number of opportunities available at Wartburg. The lib- eral arts background and excellent reputation provide a perfect setting for an internship or field experience. Those Awful Pluses and Minuses by NANCY AMERT We waited. We waited patiently for a long time it seemed. Ttie Dean of Faculty Ed Welch said, Just hold on there, you scholarly students of Wartburg. It will be here shortly, I assure you. True to his word, the dean and his cohorts, alias faculty members, unveiled to the students a revised grading system for the 1982-83 school year. Skepticism hung like a wool blanket on a clothes line in a blinding rain storm. Really, said the dean, there ' s no need for this. We ' ve only thrown a few pluses and minuses to all the straight grades of before and made ' P grades count into the grade point averages (GPA) now. Oh, you ' ll also need a ' C grade to get credit for a pass no credit class from this day forward, he said. Most students asked themselves and csked anyone else they could corner why the change was needed; the old system seemed errorless. The dean, laying to rest all doubt, explained, I hope that the pluses and minuses will provide greater motivation for better grades, as well as to provide a more accurate picture of how well a student is doing. On that note, a term passed complete with final exams and finalized computer grades. The infamous Dean ' s List hit black and white and only 1 70 stu- dents made the 3.5 or higher break line. This number is a marked decrease from the 234 students listed for the Fall Term of 1981. Including ' Fs ' had more impact on GPAs than pluses and minuses, said the dean. A murmur arose from the multitude. Paul Langholz, ombudsman of academics for Student Senate, said that most students view the new grading system negatively. A lot of people are just looking at the minuses they got, Langholz said. It has hurt their grade point averages. It ' s supposed to aver- age out and if that ' s going to happen, it has yet to be seen, he said. The dean, in defense, said, Including ' Fs ' had more impact on GPAs than pluses and minuses. He added that he thinks that the new system is effective and that it is Wartburg ' s response to a pattern of nationwide college system upgrading. We ' ve brought ourselves in line, said Welch. That ' s in the ball park to be identified as achieving at a very high level. Meanwhile, as the debate wore on, no one seemed to notice the real tragedy beneath their noses, the near extinction of a special breed of student, the 4.0 ' s. With the new plus and minus grading system, some of the former straight ' A ' students got ' A ' minuses on their records, dropping them to a nebulous continued iwxt pag 67 Those Awful Pluses and Minuses GRADES contlnu d existence in the ttiree point zone. I ' m sure thiot ttiere are some straighit ' A ' students wtio hawe ' A-s ' on ttieir records, and ttiey don ' t like it, Welch said. They could be learning more, however, and that ' s what we ' re here for. It ' s not a matter that everyone is out to get the ' A ' students. Those who have gotten straight ' As ' can really be glad that they have truly achieved something, said Welch. The general overview of the grading system by the dean after one term is that it is effective. Professors found students more involved in their courses near the end of the term than any other year, said Welch. This new increased interest in academics is attributed by the dean to the incentive for better grades through the plus and minus system. Besides the decrease in the number of students on the Dean ' s List, there was little change in the number of students dismissed or put on probation. The only big jump occurred with the number of warning letters, which is accounted for by the dean to the change in the ' F ' and ' N ' grading system. The only point of penalty within the new system found by the dean is when a student receives an ' F ' grade, he is required to take that very same course over until a passing grade is earned. In the past, the failed course could have been replaced with a similar c ourse of the student ' s choosing. The new grading system is the result of academic committee action in the fall of 1981 over an initial concern about the no credit grade. A plea for the preservation of the 4.0 student at Wartburg may reach the dean ' s desk. Further debate in many aspects of the new system is expected in the future. But for now, the best advice is to take the pluses as they come and to have patience otherwise. o CO O 3} o CO O O o o mm j With the addition of pluses and minuses, student grades tool a noticeable dip. Although some students managed to uphold high grades, many more students found their grade point averages dropping as a result of receiving minuses with their As. 58 An End To Chrysalis Education by SHARON AGER There ' s something ineffable about Wartburg Hall, Dr. Dan Thomas, a Chrysalis faculty member, explained. You know how there is always one house in the neighborhood where all the kids gather because that ' s where they have the most fun, but if you tried, you couldn ' t explain or pinpoint why it was more fun at that particular house? Well, Wartburg Hall was like that. In Wartburg Hall ' s case, it was made distinctive by the Chrysa- lis program, and the fun expe- rienced there was generated by the unique dynamics of this learning and living community, which was housed in Wartburg Hall from 1972 untiM980. It seems strangely fitting that Wart- burg Hall was scheduled to be torn down this year, the same year that the last students to complete the Chrysalis pro- gram will be graduating. Fortunately for these students and others that were involved with Chrysalis, Chrysalis has met a more honorable fate than Wartburg Hall. Though Chrysalis no longer exists as a separate entity or program, it still survives in the basic principles of the foundation courses. Conse- quently, Chrysalis continues to provide a model for educa- tional change and re-evaluation. Chrysalis has played a valu- able and distinctive role in the intellectual life of the college. It deserves recognition not only as a pioneering phase of the new general education pro- gram, but also as a separate program that stimulated stu- dents and faculty and inspired learning in a way that cannot be equalled in the new core courses. Though Chrysalis has enriched the larger general education program, the termi- nation of Chrysalis has also been a loss for the college, a loss that is particularly felt by students and faculty of the program. I miss many things about Chrysalis. The quality and depth of interaction between students and between students and faculty in Chrysalis can ' t be duplicated. I now know more students, but only superficially. There is less opportunity to get to know students well. said Thomas, assistant professor of political science. The last group of students I have ' gotten ' to know well are graduating this year. The amount and quality of interaction in Chrysalis was facil- itated by locating faculty offices in Wartburg Hall and also by conducting classes in the hall. These seminars were small (usually no more than 15 stu- dents), and discussion style. I miss the not having grades. Grades too often become an end-all, be-all and this robs teaching of part of its intrinsic value and interest, Thomas explained. We need an entire, residential community to pro- vide reinforcement and motiva- tion that isn ' t as crass as grades. This type of reinforcement was possible in Chrysalis and was more powerful and subtle. Within Chrysalis, students and professors alike accepted mut- ual responsibility for the process eonttnuwd n«xf pag Wartburg Hall, the home of Chrysalis for eight years, will be torn down before the completion of the business administration building and bridge. 59 An End to Chrysalis Education CHRYSALIS eonNnu.d Of learning and also expected nnutual benefits. These benefits and opportunities of learning extended beyond grades. Thie commitment and free- dom in Chirysalls enabled stu- dents to develop and go further. said Dr. Herman Diers. director of Chrysalis. Chrysalis students had the opportunity to go further in the areas of imagi- nation, creativity and self-initiative. Chrysalis fostered a commun- ity of learners in which students assumed responsibility for determining and evaluating their progress. I also miss the sense of involvement and participation of students. The consumer model of education has run amuck. It ' s not the faculty ' s job to hang out bits of knowledge or credits for students to pick off or consume. Thomas added. The consumer idea of educa- tion is destructive; it doesn ' t do justice to students. In contrast to the consumer concept of education. Chrysalis functioned as a model for alternative, dialogical and indi- vidualized education. Chrysalis gave me an oppor- tunity to be independent in learning and self-motivated. said senior Janet Hunt, a Chry- salis student. It forced me to take responsibility for what I was doing; I couldn ' t be passive in learning. Structurally. Chrysalis offered students an alternative way to satisfy their general education requirements in the humanities and social sciences. Each stu- dent was required to take nine Chrysalis courses: a Humanities seminar, elective seminars, negotiated studies and inde- pendent studies. The organization of Chrysalis was based partly upon the writ- ings of Joseph Tussman in Experiment at Berkeley, which emphasized the importance of working programmatically. Chrysalis proposed to ap- proach education from the perspective of the whole person and to integrate classroom experience with experi- ence outside of the classroom. The inception of Chrysalis in 1972 was in response to the experimental, student-centered educational mood of the late 1960 ' s and early ' 70 ' s. This mood has changed in recent years and in 1 980. it was decided by the Educational Policies Committee (EPC). to phase out Chrysalis. EPC also recommended that elements of Chrysalis be incorporated into the new general education program that was to be inaug- urated in 1980. Chrysalis had received a favorable report concerning its educational per- formance, but it was costing the college more than it was gen- erating in tuition revenues. It was the general feeling of EPC that the resources committed to Chrysalis could better serve the college ' s commitment to liberal arts by being allocated elsewhere. The hard reality is, we were unable to interest or recruit enough students; we were too expensive, acknowledged Diers, associate professor of religion. If we would have been able to recruit 40 new students each year, I believe we would still be operating. The choice was made for us. The integration of Chrysalis elements into the general edu- cation program has resulted In many changes and reflects major shifts in priorities in the 60 Wartburg Plan, according to Diers. General education classes are smaller and more interac- tive . In thie past, many of ttie classes were introductory classes to the various disci- plines, but since 1980, thiey tiave j been tailor-made for ttie gen- I eral education program. Thie core courses have ! imitated Chrysalis in two senses, Thomas explained. They have become more inter- disciplinary and they are exper- imenting with alternatives to the lecture method of teaching. Development of the person was emphasized as an important priority in the general education program. The general education courses aren ' t so fragmented and compartmentalized, said Thomas. A student isn ' t just a biology or business major, they have other interests, and one of the goals of the foundational studies is to transcend discipli- nary boundaries. The core courses have been designed to expose students to the full spectrum of the humani- ties and to provide students with a common experience, a point of reference. The general education pro- gram has seen incredible development in the past few years, Diers said. It has become a program that distin- guishes Wartburg and reflects its strong commitment to liberal arts. Evidently, Chrysalis, even after being phased out, has provided an impetus for lifting disciplinary boundaries, for stretching intel- lectual horizons and for increas- ing interest in the arts. Though it is impossible to duplicate the Chrysalis learning environment by means of the core courses. pursuing elements of the Chry- salis approach to education has benefited the general edu- cation program. Also, more stu- dents are given the opportunity to experience an unique gen- eral education venture. This relationship between Chrysalis and the new general education program in Wart- burg ' s commitment to liberal arts is reflected in Hunt ' s com- ments concerning her own per- sonal experience: I personally thought it was a mistake to cut the Chrysalis program, but I have also been a preceptor in the Person and Society classes and this invol- vement in the core courses gave me a stepping stone beyond Chrysalis, Hunt explained. It helped me to understand the educational ideals of Chrysalis in the context of Wartburg, not just Chrysalis. What are the Chrysalis Ideals? Pat Gottschalk, a Chrysalis stu- dent, decribes the Chrysalis experience in this poem: WRITE A PARAGRAPH? Five minutes time i thought so too where to begin? Chrysalis was is life a fresh new start to live to learn to open oneself to take part in to put up with to shut none out to realize (prepositions should not end . . . ) to move to stir to feel rumblings dissent within to open to see to learn to live to yearn to tell to be is enough to emerge (perhaps whole) to bear new wings as if a cocoon now left behind could first teach one how to fly. 61 Computers Provide Learning by MICHELLE SANPEN The sophisticated age of computer technology became even more of a reality to the Wartburg community when the college purchased a new central computing sytem. Wartburg purchased the new computer system, the VAX- 1 1 750. from the Digital Equipment Corp. (DEC). The entire system includes the VAX itself, administrative computer terminals, academic computer terminals and software packages. Administrative software was purchased from POISE, People Oriented Information Systems for Education. A variety of features is found in the system, and that is why the college selected the VAX instead of other alternatives. The system features five computer languages-Pascal, FORTRAN ' 77, WATBOL, BASIC, and VAX Assembler. A help feature, which allows the user to ask for help when he or she has a problem, is also available. Text- editing and data management are also offered on the system. The college selected DEC ' S GIGI (General Imaging Generator and Interpreter) terminals for academic use. These terminals offer full-color graphics and a local capability to run BASIC programs without hooking into the main part of the computer system. These terminals also allow the user to define the character set which will be used, which means that the user may put in special symbols or letters. It was a long and eventful year before the computer system finally arrived. A panel of three persons selected the VAX after looking at offers from several other companies. Dr. Edwin Welch, dean of faculty and vice president for academic affairs; Dr. Marvin Ott. director of institutional research students take advantage of ttie educational opportunities provided by the new WAX. computer system. Focuity. statt and students wlli tiave access to the system. and administrative computing, and Josef Breutzmann, computer center director and director of academic computing, selected the VAX and had originally planned a mid-November delivery date. But according to Ott and Breutzmann, DEC told the college of a new kind of storage system it was working on. The storage system had more memory space and was an improvement on the one the college had planned to buy. It didn ' t cost too much more, and the college decided to buy the new system. DEC said all systems were go at Wartburg for an early March delivery. The college was not idle while it waited for the system ' s delivery. The classroom in Luther Hall 202 was transformed into the central facility for the computer ' s main components. Chalkboards were removed and long counters took their place. A new ceiling was put in, and the windows were covered to make the room more energy- efficient. Air conditioning was also installed to help regulate the room ' s temperature. Over at Becker Hall, Ott and Breutzmann were selecting the computer terminals and software packages the college would buy. Training sessions for faculty and staff were planned and conducted. Over Christmas break, a conduit was laid between Becker Hall and Luther. This conduit was laid then because of unseasonably warm weather. A cable was pulled through the channel after the computer system arrived to connect the Becker and Luther facilities. As the beginning of March approched, the students and 62 Opportunities For IVIany faculty in the computer science field became more excited about the system ' s arrival. But when the college called DEC, it was told that an engineering hold had been placed on the system. The new storage system had some kind of flaw in it that the company had to correct before the computer could be shipped. The company representative said the computer should arrive on campus by mid-March. When DEC was called a few days later, the system was still on indefinite hold, and Ott and Breutzmann began to get discouraged. Plans had been made to have the May Term classes use the new system instead of the old IBM punched- card system. Fortunately, the hold was lifted and the system was shipped April 1 via North American Van Lines. Several computer science professors had planned to use the new system at the end of Spring Term, but the system didn ' t arrive until Finals Week. During Tour Week, the system ' s main components — the two hard disk storage devices, a magnetic tape storage device, the main console, eight printers and administrative terminals — were installed in Luther Hall 202. Becker Hall 208, the computer center, became home to 14 GIGI terminals and a printer. Once the VAX was installed, different kinds of problems popped up. One of them was obvious — professors were learning about the system as they taught their students during May Term. Ott said the instructors had enough knowledge about the system and the computer languages used to teach their students effectively. He did say the system ' s full capabilities would not be able to be explored until Summer Term. Another problem was that the GIGI terminals periodically quit working. At first, the college thought the terminals were defective, but it was later discovered that the terminal network had been improperly grounded when the electricians installed them. Student computer operator and junior Teresa Tehven said, It ' s difficult as an operator wondering whether everytime it lightnings if the system is going to go down. When there is a storm, the electric company sends spikes through the lines which hit the GIGIs and burn out the chips which operate the machines. That was corrected and the system was on its way. Breutzmann and Ott planned a series of workshops and seminars to train faculty and staff how to use the system. These began during May Term and culminated with an intensive session before Fall Term 1983. Short courses for interested students were also planned. To gain access to the computer, students had to be enrolled in a class which used the system. Each student was given an account which he or she could use to log on to the system. Breutzmann and Ott plan to expand the accounting system to include more students. They hoped that would begin Fall Term, after they had time to become more familiar with the VAX. This new computer means a number of things to the Wartburg community. It will serve as a drawing card to incoming students interested in computing. It will also keep current students and faculty more up-to-date with computers. Another benefit of the system is that it allows many adminstratlve offices to put their records and files on the computer, thus freeing office help for more important tasks. Perhaps the most exciting benefit is that the computer may be used to help teach. This concept, called computer- aided instruction (CAI), is one of the system ' s capabilities and one the college hopes to use. Breutzmann mentioned the possibility of classroom simulations using the computer. Wartburg hired two student interns for the summer to help Ott and Breutzmann get the VAX running to its full potential. These students will also be able to help train new operators and run the system themselves during the year. Breutzmann hoped to expand his computer center staff to more fully deal with the enlarged system. The college will continue to use the Apple II microcomputers in addition to the VAX system. This will provide the college with powerful local computing ability, microcomputer ability, and the capability to continue as part of the Regional Computing Center network at Iowa City. The college hopes the new system will allow classes outside the computer science and mathematics fields to become computer literate. It has even talked of the possibilities of logging on to the system through the phone lines, having student terminals in the dorm rooms and even electronic mail. Don ' t worry though — Ott is sure the system won ' t change the heart and soul of Wartburg. 63 ' The Bridge ' Fills In Another by MICHELLE SANDEN Wartburg Is growing, and that was quite evident during the 1982-83 school year, when the college began construction of its new Business Administration Center between Luther Hall and the Student Memorial Union. The new building, however, signalled the death of Wartburg Hall, a long tradition on the Wartburg campus. The new building houses classrooms and offices for the Business Department. The Admissions Department also moved to the building from Luther Hall. Commonly called The Bridge, the building has a skyway which connects the business center with the Union and Luther Hall. A new bookstore and a visitor ' s center are also included in the constructon. Thorson Brom Broshar Snyder, architects, designed the building to fulfill the need for these facilities on campus. The college bookstore had been housed adjacent to Wartburg Hall, and many people felt a special place for visitors was needed. Work on the business center, the central part of the project, had to be completed before much progress could be made on the bookstore and visitor ' s center. The Bridge has several different features which the college hopes will make the facility attractive to outside groups. There are three tiered lecture halls, a center for computer terminals and a private dining area. A change in the cafeteria arrangement also came with the building. A new loading dock was built behind the Union as part of the project. The cafeteria also benefited from a new food storage area. Bids for the project were about 68 percent of what the architect had estimated, and this greatly pleased the college. Youngblut Construction, the general contractor, set the building ' s completion date at July 1983. Other firms involved in the construction were Leiand Jenson. mechanical engineer; Bossenberger Associates, structural engineer; Kinseth Plumbling and Heating, mechanical contractor, and Dean ' s Light Box, electrical contractor. The Wartburg Community watched the building go up from the ground. Construction began in July 1982, and continued through the school year. A construction fence enclosed the site, making the fountain, the front of Wartburg Hall and the Union ' s south entrance inaccessible. The building site became the center of attraction and workers continued to put concrete blocks and steel support frames in place. Bricklayers made walls appear where none were before. Forklifts, cement trucks, cranes and semi-trailer trucks became common sights on campus. The college needed to dig two wells on the site for the water-based cooling system the building uses. Walter Fredrick, vice president for financial affairs and treasurer, said the college had to apply to several places to get permission to dig the wells, and the state had to approve the application. The wells were to be 100 feet deep each, and are used in the closed circulating system for cooling. Progress on the construction was stop-ond-go. A stretch of mild weather at the beginning of winter aided the progress. During the winter, the workers continued to work as much as possible, mainly indoors. In the spring, a snap of cold weather and heavy rains slowed the work. A materials shortage in early November and another in the spring also slowed the building ' s progress. In spite of the weather and the materials shortage. Fredrick felt that overall, the project was pretty much on schedule. He said the college was fully expecting to move in to the new building in the fall. In addition to the obvious changes in the campus look, other buildings received facelifts too. The Union ' s Buhr Lounge was redecorated and refurnished, since the skyway connects there. The skyway hooks into Luther Hall in the workrooms formerly used by the Admissions Department. The college had to redecorate there also. Fredrick said the college planned additional landscaping around the business building when construction was finished. New sidewalks were also part of the plan. The 1982-83 Student Senate allocated funds for new benches by the fountain, which remains where it has been in the past. Wartburg Hall, former home of the Chrysalis honor program and later faculty offices and the Student Health Center, was demolished after the Business Administration Center was completed. Some Wartburg alumni sold mementos from the building, including doorknobs and coatracks. Financing for the construction 64 Foundation The architects oversee work which is being done on the Business Administration Center.

Wartburg ' s Design for Tomorrow programs, Phase II, contributed a large amount of the necessary funds. Lutheran Mutual Life Insurance contributed about $30,000 and the Kresge Foundation supplied $150,000. A bond closing was held in October, with the National Bank of Waterloo holding the industrial revenue bonds. Fredrick said 1.5 million bonds were sold at 1 3 percent interest. Other area banks helped with the college ' s efforts, including the banks in Waverly, Grudy Center, Oelwein, Plainfield and Tripoli. Students and faculty members needed time to adjust to the changes the construction brought to the campus. There were no shortcuts between Luther and the Union and no class sessions or late-night talks by the fountain and sundial. But as the Wartburg community settles in to its new building, the inconviences of the construction will be replaced by Wartburg pride in its newest facility. 65 PEOPLE Administration 68-73 Staff 74-77 Faculty Art 80 Mathi and Computer Science 81 Ptiysics and Chemistry 82 Biology 83 Ptiysical Education 84 Foreign Language 85 Communication Arts and Psychiology 86 Sociology and Social Work 87 Political Science and History 88 Religion 89 Business 90 IVIusic 92-93 Administration President Vogel sprained his ankle in an intramural basketball game.

Its primary function is to remain unambiguously faithful to the meaning of a liberal arts education and dedicated to the humanities as the core of education. This entails, among othertenets, a strong belief that values are pre-eminent in human affairs and are the main concern of education. Through the literature of the world the Department of English makes available to the Wartburg student the thought of the ages, as v riters have best expressed it, con- cerning truth and falsehood, good and bad, the beautiful and the ugly in the question of what one ought to do with one ' s life. A second function is to be a service to the college in providing intelligent and thorough training in the art of composition. The tasks of the English Depart- ment include insistence upon campus-wide atten- tion to enlarging the world of the students by expanding their language capacity, and to inspire the students to express themselves well and logi- cally through the written word. The third and most difficult part of their mission is to light in the minds of the students the fires that will be embers for the rest of their lives. We want our gradu- ates to be of passionate intensity, lacking neither conviction nor the wise judgment such conviction demands. The English Department has maintained a rather consistent number of majors, a fact that runs con- trary to our sister schools. We place close to 100 percent of our graduates. Many of our graduates have continued their education, some in other pro- fessions, many in graduate schools in English. The department keeps in close contact with most of its graduates and almost without exception the grad- uates have expressed satisfaction with the educa- tion they received. Most, in fact, praise the work of the department. None complain. Dr. Joan Griffin uses her cross-country skis for transportation to work on a snowy morning.

Giving emphasis to both specialized and general aspects of teacher education, the depart- ment attempts to cultivate in its students a strong sense of intel- lectual, social and spiritual re- sponsibiltyas a teacher and mem- ber of society. The department seeks to provide our schools with teachers who are professionally of high competence in subject matter and instructional tech- nique and who approach their profession with a sense of Chris- tian vocation. Dr. Richard Stedtfeld Mrs. Phyllis Schmidt Dr. Donald Vetter Art Department Limited By Facuity Reduction The purposes of the Art Department ore to award degrees in Art and Art Education, to maintain pro- grams for Art Minors and Pre-Architectural students, to coordinate academically with other departments, to keep and develop course options for the inter- ested elective student, and offer exhibition pro- grams for the College and community; to assist in the development of students ' abilities to think and communicate with systematic disciplined, intelli- gence and imagination in terms of the self, human- ity, the visual world, and the design of the universe; and to assist in the acquisition of skills and percep- tions in the development of personal expression, and an awareness of the diversities and contexts of artistic heritage. Wartburg ' s Art Department is distinct from other col leges of similar dimensions in that without award- ing the B.F.A., it offers one of the most comprehensive of curricula within the standard limitations of the B.A. in Art and the B.A. in Art Education. The limited sizes of classes and the attitudes of the faculty allow close working relationships. The Art Department is able to imbue a creative intellectualist attitude toward subject matter without having to contend with either elitism or popularism. The art faculty was recently reduced to one. Because of this, realistic visions for the future reside within the confines of very limited possibilities, prim- arily of a curricular nature. A major in commercial design based on reciprocity with HawkeyeTech and similar institutions could be implemented. It is pos- sible to consider two additional, alternating year courses, one in Commercial Graphics which would be linked to those aspects of reproduction currently used by the College, and the other in Art Criticism to serve as a replacement for Field Experience and as a Capstone requirement.

The mission of the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science is to hel p students under- stand the concepts, structure and style of mathematics and com- puter science, acquire problem solving skills, and apply mathe- matics and computer science in meaningful vocations and ser- vices. The department prepares stu- dents for mathematics, compu- ter science and engineering re- lated professions by offering two majors incorporating computers (computer science and compu- ter information systems) and majors in mathematics, mathe- matics education, and engineer- ing (cooperative degree). In this way it serves a diversity of stu- dents and provides them with high quality instruction consist- ent with their abilities and p rior education. Serious effort is made to keep subject matter up to date with current professional stand- ards and to provide internship opportunities. The department plans to con- tinue its efforts to offer a strong computer science program while maintaining the quality of its upper division mathematics cours- es. Consideration will be given to offering more application or- iented courses as wel I as ways to alleviate the severe shortage of high school mathematics teach- ers. All staff persons plan to con- tinue to develop their computer expertise by incorporating the use of the new VAX-1 1 750 min- icomputer into their classroom instruction as soon as possible.

The department is staffed by three full-time Ph.D. level chem- ists representing the major spe- cialties in chemisty and the class and laboratory sizes provide ex- The mission of the Physics De- partment is to expose as large a segment of our student body to a quality experience with physics as is possible. Extracurricular contact is encouraged too through planetarium and telescope use and through special laboratory sessions such as one in acous- tics for interested music majors. The uniqueness of the Physics Department stems from small classes in its advanced courses which make for a lot of informal interaction between faculty and students. Additionally, strong em- phasis is placed on a physics major ' s Independent Study 450 experience. The faculty acts as a sounding board for a student ' s ideas or supplies departmental funds or borrowing equipment eel lent opportunities for student faculty interaction which enhan- ces students ' understanding of chemistry and counseling and placement activities. They also have many off-campus oppor- tunities and serve the health professions extensively. The department plans to sub- mit a request for a review of the program by the A.C.S. leading to Approved status for the de- partment. They also plan to ex- pand the use of the computer in instruction and labortory exper- imentation with the use of the new VAX 11 750 minicomputer. which will allow the student to better carry out his or her chosen project. The current plan of the Wart- burg Physics Department is to become facile with digital elec- tronics and microprocessor hard- ware while its long term vision is to introduce a series of ongoing research or development projects to which any student can con- tribute on a voluntary basis as time and interest permit. These projects would exhibit the possi- bility of supporting the mission work of the Church, particularly abroad. As such then, the long term goal of our faculty is to inte- grate their professional interests with their Christian faith, hope- fully, in the eyes of Christ and in the eyes of our students too.

High Placement Shown The primary mission of the Biology Department is to provide the majors with sound pre-professional programs in the areas of health care and science education. In addition, the role we play in the world of nature wil I continue to be important components of a liberal arts education. Excellent placement records in the health profes- sions, the reputation of our science education graduates, and our May Term trips in marine and desert biology continue to make the program somewhat unique. The future shows that the staff must keep up with advances in biological knowledge as well as instruc- tional methodology in order to keep high place- ment records. An effort will also be made to recruit high ability students. This includes retaining pro- grams like the Cedar Valley Science Symposium, Biology Olympics, and Regents Scholarships. Op- tions for students of average ability also are being investigated. These could include biology-business combinations and health careers such as respira- tory therapy and cyto-technology.

Dr. Galen Eiben Dr. Stephen fy ain Ms. Sandra Lobeck Dr. Darold Wolff Dr. Donald King 83 Physical Education Prompts Social Growtli The purpose of the Department of Physical Educa- tion and Athletics is to provide opportunities for behavioral change through the medium of physical activities. In addition, the department emphasizes social, intellectual, and moral growth through par- ticipation in its programs. The department is organ- ized to include the four major categories of profes- sional preparation which offer a Physical Education major, minor, coaching endorsement, and Leisure Services major; a general education activity re- quirement of one course; intramurals; and an inter- collegiate athletic program which includes nine sports for men and seven for women. The programs are unique because they provide vast numbers of opportunities for our students to experience educational growth and development through involvement in these activities. Quality phys- ical education and athletic programs require facili- ties. The Knights Gym-PE Complex, Schield Stadium and Hertel Field areas represent an extensive com- mitment of physical resourses from the college to our programs. The department staff is highly quali- fied. All have advanced degrees and four members have earned doctorates. As in the past, the future focus of the department is to continue to serve the college by demonstrating excellence in both teach- ing and coaching.

Foreign Language Department Emphasizes Study Abroad Dr. Robert Emory gives some coach ' s advice to Brian Piecuch at a soccer gome. It is the mission of ttie Depart- ment of Foreign Language to prepare students for service in he world through the study of for- eign languages and literatures. Such study should make them aware of the wide range of cultu- ral differences; appreciative of others ' cultures, and able to com- municate and interact effectively in a global context. Through the process of language learning, specifically in the acquisition of new vocabulary, students gain the invaluable insight that there are many more ways of conceiv- ing of the world ' s workings than had been accessible to them before. By introducing students to differing customs and tradi- tions and the historical, cultural developments which make a coun- try unique, the department tries to promote tolerance of diversity as well as adaptability to chang- ing conditions. The emphasis on the study of literature will not only encourage sophistication of ex- pression and aesthetic appreci- ation, but will help students to understand better the life of another culture with which they may have to grapple some day in their personal or professional lives. The valuable lessons litera- ture provides will guide them through the future. This is an immediate, practical gain. The department puts a strong emphasis on study abroad, as this is an essential engredient in mastering another language. Studying abroad is also the oppor- tuntiy to get outside their own cul- ture in order to examine it more objectively. Having to adapt to another culture makes one accutely conscious of one ' s own way of doing things. Having to explain one ' s own country to people who see things differently makes one examine much more critically one ' s own feelings about his or her country. The criti- cal perspective gained enables our students to serve society more openly and to adapt more readily to a constantly changing world. The department plans to res- tructure its program to include a wider variety of courses offered on an alternate year basis. Our reevaluation will include offer- ings on the elementary and inter- mediate levels. The department is interested in introducing more innovative methods involving the use of video tapes and video tape equipment. This is an essen- tial part of effective language instruction today. Ways in which to acquire new equipment for a noticeably outdated language laboratory are also being ex- plored. Dr. Peter Broad Ms. Yvonne Losch Dr. Moira McCluney Dr. Robert Emory Dr. Roy Allen 85 Communications MeerChallenges The mission of the Communi- cation Arts Department is to up- hold a long tradition of prepar- ing students for careers in mass communications and commun- ication teaching. Communication Arts is dedi- cated to the advancement of honest and accurate exchanges of information, ideas and opin- ion. The department concentrates its efforts on the education of stu- dents who are preparing for pro- fessional careers in print journal- ism, electronic journalism, pub- lic relations, and teaching in the areas of speech communication and journalism. The Communication Arts Depart- ment believes that its emphases The Psychology Department is designed to provide students with an understanding of contempo- rary psychological research, principles, theory and practice. The department prepares students for any of the diverse careers which mal e use of psycholog- ical Icnowledge and skills, or ad- vanced study in psychology. The department views psy- chology as an academic disci- The department views psych- ology as an academic disci- pline comprised of many spe- cialized fields of knowledge, as a profession which is practiced in a variety of applied settings, and as a science dedicated to advanc- ing their knowledge and under- are vitally important today and will be even more important in- the decades ahead, when the world seems destined to become fogged over in communication and increasingly dehumanized by communications technology. The goal of preparing a grow- ing number of students for in- c reasingly demanding roles in communication professions is a formidable one-especially for a small department-but the ur- gency of maintaining a growing, increasingly integrated program makes it more challenging. Communication Arts, with its record of the past and its vision of the future, welcomes these chal- lenges. standing of human behavior through research. Present trends show a flourish in pyschology programs in the future as society seeks to criti- cally and comprehensively ad- dress the individual and social problems it encounters. Mem- bers of the department also see psychology becoming allied with a variety of existing disciplines and professions for the purpose of advancing knowledge through interdisciplinary research and improving the function and prac- tice of society ' s vital professions. The department is served by three full time instructors all with Ph.D. degrees in psychology. Psychology instructor Dr. Alice Woods lectures on associations witti dogs. iVIany Reids Comprise Psyclioiogy Dr. Rick Jennings Dr. Alice Woods Dr. Fred Ribicti Dr. Robert Smitti Mr. Robert Gremmels 86 Department Oldest in Iowa Social Work instructor Dorothy Starr works in her office. The primary program objective of the Social Work Department is to develop a general ist social yy orker who is familiar with a sys- terris framework and with a problenn- solving approach and focus. The generalist social wor1 er Is problenrv oriented rather than method ori- ented and a practitioner who can effectively intervene in a va- riety of problem situations. This is the oldest undergradu- ate social work program in the state of Iowa, having started in 1945. The department has an excellent program of field expe- riences allowing each student to develop his or her own particular area of interest and expertise. The Social Work Department would like to offer more elective courses which would attract non- majors into the department. They would also like to see additional ' acuity positions in the future. ' Sociological imagination ' Key The mission of the Department of Sociology is primarily to de- velop within all students what C. Wright Mills terms the sociologi- cal imagination. This perspec- tive can help students deal with, solve and understand problems they face everyday and major crises that come along. It also enables them to better under- stand the problems and issues of the larger society and suggests ways they can effectively work to solve these problems. The department is responsible for one module of the Person and Society course, and also provides a cross-cultural course. The department intends to con- tinue to develop as many majors as is consistent with interest, and will continue to be involved in and support the Wartburg Plan. Dr. Doris Cottam lectures in sociology. Dr. Cottam advises students in the Black Minority Awareness Organization. Mr. Kirby Gull Dr. Doris Cottam Ms. Dorothy Starr 87 Political Science Offers Many Off-Campus Experiences The Department of Political Sci- ence explores American politics thirougti a general introductory course and a number of special courses. Ttie area of compara- tive political systems and interna- tional relations includes modem Europen governments, modem Chiina, trie developing countries and introduction to international relations. Special programs are availa- ble to the political science major, such as Wartburg ' s partic- ipation in the United Nations Semester. This program gives an undergraduate a better under- standing of intematlonal affairs and work of the United Nations. A student spends the Spring Term of the junior year at Drew Univer- sity in Madison, New Jersey.in a formal program that enables con- centrated study of the U.N. and yet meets graduation require- ments at Wartburg. History Department is Flexible The History Department offers a flexible program with opportuni- ties to concentrate in one of sev- eral areas of history. United States history is explored through gen- eral courses and through spe- cial courses on the colonial per- iod, the American Revolution, the West, foreign relations and ethnic history. European, African, Chi- nese, Latin American, and Pre- modern Asian histories are also offered. A history major is also offered a number of special opportunities including a United Nations sem- ester and international exchange programs with the University of Bonn in Germany and Interna- tional Christian University in Japan.

Dr. Ronald Alexander makes a key point in his philosophy course. The purpose of the Department of Religion is to contribute to the general education of all Wart- burg College students in the Faith and Reflection component of the Wartburg Plan which requires one course in biblical studies and two chosen from historical tradi- tional, applied problem-centered, and philosphy. These are intended to convey an understanding of the biblical and historical herit- age of Christianity as a decisive influence on Western civilizati on, to increase students ' ethical sen- sitivity and commitment to the Christian faith, to develop ana- lytic ability so as to discnminate among religious phenomena in modern society and to stimulate reflection on the relation of Chns- tian faith to contemporary issues and personal life. The depart- ment also serves the purposes of training lay church workers by offenng a major in Religion, and The Department of Philosophy sees its role as service role. The department does offer a major in philosophy, but is restncted by the bounds of having only one full-time instructor. During the last two decades, the depoitment has been dedicated to the goal of making the abstractions of philosophy and its critical func- equipping students more effec- tively to serve church and society by offenng courses dealing with universal human experiences or issues related to their vocational objectives. Through internships. May Term experiences, and on-campus activ- ities, the department tnes to ena- ble students to relate theologi- cal study to the grass roots of congregational life as well as to the church ' s wider mission. The department does not strive over- much for distictiveness in com- parison with departments of other Lutheran colleges but rather to offer a creditable traditional program. The department plans to try to increase the number of students electing courses in Religion by occasionally creating new cours- es in topical or specialized areas and by periodic revision of exist- ing courses. tion come alive in the minds of its students. The department plans to con- tinue its service role and its role in the general education require- ments in the Faith and Reflection component. They also will pro- vide cross-referenced courses in a variety of disciplines. Ptiiiosopliy Holds a Service Role Dr Ronald Alexander Rev. WaldemarGies Rev. Larry Trachte Dr. Raymond Harms Dr. Herman Diers Dr. Marshal IJohnson Business Department Sees Expansion The Business Department, one of the largest and most expanding departments, offers several different majors in areas including Business, Business Admin- istration, Business Education and Economics. Grad- uates of the department have a broad exposure to the liberal studies, effective communication skills, and interest in the broader issues that affect our world. The department shows excellent records of initial placement, and performance levels on C.P.A. Exam- inations. The future shows growth for the department. The new facilities will allow it to expand in resources. Students will become familiar with the use of the computer in the business world. Integrative pro- grams with other departments are being investi- gated, as well as additional internship opportuni- ties. Dr. William Shipman tries to get a point across in tiis lecture. Dr. William Stiipman Mr. Ttiomas Wiener Mr. John Hougen 90 Gloria Campbell takes a break from her paperwori to pose for ttie camera. Music Therapy Program Strength of Department The mission of the Music Department is to provide high quality musical training for students enrolled in the various music degree programs, and opportuni- ties for students in other degree programs to partici- pate in musical organizations, to continue devel- opment or achieve nev skills in various applied music areas, and to gain insight into the art of music through elected music courses. It is also a goal of the department to contribute to the cultural life of the campus and community through concerts, reci- tals, lecture-recitals, and music festivals and work- shops. The department assists educationi and social service facilities organizations working with special or handicapped individuals and groups whose special physical, mental, or emotional needs may be supported or improved through music in therapy. Wartburg is the only school in the state of Iowa other than the University of Iowa to offer a degree in Music Therapy. Only one other ALC college offers a program. Plans for the future of the department include maintaining high quality instruction in the applied music areas not only for music majors but also for students in other degrees programs who wish to maintain or develop skills in applied music, at- tempting to strengthen the music education degree training by increasing opportunities for organiza- tional jazz performance to better prepare students for their work in the public schools.

President Daddy Vogel, although only in his junior year, said his thanks to the class at the senior class dinner held March 29. Another major change was the discontinuation of Wartburg Hall as a residence and watching the new business administration building take shape knowing It would never be used by this class. Successful years In choir, band, sports and many other activities serve as a reminder to students that the class of 1983 were achievers. Friends were made as freshmen and cherished through four years of academic struggle. Faculty and staff members also lent a helping hand whenever possible. A s a parting gift to the college, the student senate appropriated money to fund benches to be installed In front of the new business administration building once finished. The class parts with memories of a school that provided an environment for spiritual and psychological growth. ANN K.

The student section was ctianged ttils year in hopes of capturing more faces for the book. The turn out for pictures for floors, houses, and off-campus was over 85 F ercent. which is 35 percent better than the iast 10 years. Aiso. the camaraderie on floors is captured in the pictures. For example. Clinton Ground South dressed as if going to a drunkards ' party. This seems appropriate to some extent, as the floor had over $2,000 dollars damage for the first semester. One facet of floor life which won ' t continue is the Initiation runs to Roy ' s Place. The egg cheese Joint was sold, so students will never again experience eating from a grill which was claimed as never having once had the grease changed. There is much competition between floors and houses. Intramurals usually are set up on the basis of floors, houses and faculty. Although the faculty puts up a good fight, the students usually win the overall competi- flons. The faculty then has the power to reward students for the loss by adding more homeworic to the woricload, but the sportsmanship Is generally good. Floors and houses also compete for top ranking in the grade department. Comils House has been the leader for many years, but saw that streak upset this year by Swensen House. Floors and houses also have the opportunity to interact with each other. A Brother Sister floor program was conflnued to let students share acflvtties on a coed basis that might not normally be shared. Floors and houses can be remembered for the many activities done together as a unit. Ottersberg printed a calendar featuring twelve students. Chellevold held the first eariy morning pajama party. Clinton One South held their annual Beach Party. Centennial dorm held afilmfesflval.and Grossmann provided several Sunday night meals and films. Times with floor and house members are cherished, and these pictures serve as reminders of the people you spent the year with. Off-campus consists of more than 1 50 students. Many of these students belong to the Nontrodi- tionals group which allows peo- ple not of the traditional 1 7-22 age group to meet. This group built a float for the Homecoming parade, whteh featured rrxany po- tential students for the future. Many off-campus people joined with Vol I mer I. Centennial Ground and Hebron II to place third in Wortburg Sings competition. Al- though living off-campus, these students are active in many orgarv izations including music clubs, senate. Wortburg Players, and CLM. Ofl mpu front row I to n Debbie Holmstrom. Rena Mumford, Joy Mumford; bode row: Steven Roys. Bruce Bomett 105 Ch ll«vold Hous« consisted mostly of seniors this year.

Throughout the year, Wartburg was led by junior Scott Smith, sophomore Dan Hus- ton, who was voted the team ' s most valu- able player, freshman Joel Alexander, senior captain Brad Knutson, sophomore Wayne McClintock and junior Steve Rogers, who was voted captain for the 1983 season. For the previous 21 years, Luther had dominated the conference meet of those including the last 11 straight. Snapping Luther ' s string provided extra incentive for the Knights. The Knights placed three of its five scor- ers in the top ten. Smith placed second, Huston placed third and Alexander was fifth. The scoring was rounded out with Knutson placing 1 1 th and Rogers placing ' 14th. It felt really good to be the team that broke their string, said Knutson, who has run varsity since his freshman year. For three years years I ' ve watched Luther con- tinue their string. It was really great to finally break it. It was long overdue. Both Knutson and Kurtt stressed how the entire team played a role in winning the championship. It was a total team effort. Kurtt said. It wasn ' t just a seven man effort. We had the entire team there (at conference) cheer- ing. Everybody did what they had to do. Because of his squad ' s performance, Kurtt was voted IIAC Coach of the Year fol- lowing the meet. This kind of total team effort was preval- ent throughout the year. Kurtt was con- stantly making comments like it was a great performance or everybody ran well, it was a good effort. The mark of this team was its maturity, Kurtt said. Knutson and Jeff Walczyk and the rest kept us under control. The Knights closed out their season in the NCAA Regional Meet in Pella, finishing fourth. Although it was one of their best showings in years, the Knights failed to qualify. Kurtt said the teams were just too strong. The Knights needed to finish in the top two to advance to the national meet. A tough St. Johns team captured the title, scoring only 35 points. The other qualifying team was St. Thomas, scoring 65 points. 158 WIN CONFERENCE Wartburg finished with 141,15 points ahead of conference-rival Luther. We consistently performed well all year, and this meet was no exception, Kurtt said. They ran their best. Huston led the Knights, finishing 1 4th with an 8,000 meter time of 25:28. Huston fin- ished seven seconds behind the twelth- place runner, who qualified as individual for nationals. Smith followed, finishing 17th in 25:35, Alexander finished 31 st in 26:04, Rogers fin- ished 32 in 26:06, and Knutson finished 47th in 26:28. Kurtt stressed that failing to qualify for nationals in no way diminishes the accom- plishments of this team. It ' s been a fantastic season, Kurtt said. They were dedicated to the goal of win- ning confer ence. Qualifying for nationals was a secondary goal. The thrill of winning the 1982 conference title is one memory which Kurtt said the runners are not likely to lose. Dan Huston finishes 3rcl in the Homecoming meet to pace the Knights victory.

The Knights also qualified for the NCAA III playoffs for the first time in the school ' s history. Led by 11 first team all-conference per- formers, the team was undefeated in IIAC competition with a 7-0 record. The Knights equaled the most wins In a season mark with eight set by the 1 958 and 1 959 teams. However, the regular season was not the only area the Knights excelled in. Post- season honors were won by senior tail- back Mike Ward who earned first-team all- IIAC honors and was named the most valuable player in the conference. Ward, who sat out the 1981 season with a knee injury, led the conference in scoring with 90 points. He broke the school scoring record for a season with 120 points and led the Knights in rushing with 967 yards, receiving with 30 receptions and scoring with 20 touchdowns. Also named to the first team on offense weresenior tackle Brad Smoldt, senior cen- ter Scot Simpson, junior tackle Tim Wall- jasper, junior tight-end Scott Fritz and sopho- more quarterback Gary Walljasper, who broke eight individual school records and had a hand in helping break seven team offensive marks. Walljasper led the conference in pass- ing with 1,578 yards and in total offense with 1,426 yards. He also threw for 15 touchdowns. Smoldt was also named to the Sports Information Directors ' All-America Division III third team. Named to the Al l-IIAC first defensive team was junior tackle Jeff Glaw(for the second straight year), senior defensive end John Grosser, sophomore linebacker Steve Rodri- guez, sophomore defensive back Brad Bowman and senior defensive back Owen 9- Front row I to r.

Captains forthe squad were Ward, Crosser and Smoldt. The Knights ' offense exploded in the season opener, as the team defeated Midwest Conference power Cornell 48-34. Northeast Missouri State then handed Wartburg their only shutout loss of the sea- son 38-0. Northeast Missouri State quali- fied for the NCAA Division II playoffs at the end of the season. The team bounced back, though, to crush arch-rival Luther 48-7 in the confer- ence opener. The win avenged a 13-12 setback to the Norse in 1 981 . The team then rallied to beat William Penn 29-13 and defeated Buena Vista 27- 13 to set the stage for a Homecoming showdown with defending IIAC champion Central. The Knights then demonstrated their offen- sive prowess once again as they humbled the Dutchmen 41 -1 4. A stingy defense also rose to the occasion, effectively control- ling the Big Red ' s league-leading offense to paltry totals. Wartburg then pasted Upper Iowa 43-19. The Knights clinched a share of the IIAC title with a close 27-24 triple overtime win at Dubuque. Closing their regular season at home, the Knights recorded their first shutout win of the season, smothering Simpson 33-0. The win gave them the title outright. The team closed their season with their first-ever NCAA Division III playoff appear- ance, losing to Bishop College(TX) 32-7 in the first round.

The Knights finished 21-5 overall and 1 0- 4 in IIAC play, which gained thenn a tie with Williann Penn for the crown. It was a three-part season as the Knights opened with 1 0 wins in 1 1 starts and fin- ished the same way. but three of the first four conference games wound up in losses. It was very similar to the 1 970-71 season when we lost our first three league games and then won 11 in a row to tie Central and Wil liam Penn, Coach Buzz Levick. who has a 339-1 28 record at Wartburg, including 1 0 IIAC championships, said. The Knights were denied a postseason playoff bid, when It was discovered they had had an informal preseason scrim- mage with an amateur team. NCAA regu- i lotions say such scrimmages may be held but must count as a contest. That gave i Wartburg 27 contests, one over the NCAA i limit. i A pair of senior AIHIAC forwards powered the Knights in every offensive category. Mark Merritt of Dubuque led the Knights in scoring with a 20.8 average, totalling 542 points in 26 games. This made him the 1 5th eager to join Wartburg ' s 1 ,000 Point Club, where he wound up seventh on the list with 1 ,309 points in three varsity seasons. He scored 195 field goals, including 47 three- point goals, in 389 attempts for a 50.1 per- centage and 1 05 of 1 29 free throws for a 81 .4 percentage. He also was second on t he club in rebounding with 1 73 for a per game average of 6.6. Defensively, he led the squad with 20 blocked shots. Men ' s Varsity Basketball front row I to r Mark Brown.

We shiould try it for a year and thien whien Mark Merritt graduates, ttie confer- ence shiould drop It. hie joked in November. When asked at the end of the season if he still held the same sentiments, the response was, Yes, if the conference were to vote on the three point rule for next season, I ' d vote ' no ' because fVlerritt graduates this year. Primarily known as a scorer, Merritt im- proved into what Levick called a com- plete player. He plays sound defense and rebounds well, in addition to his outstand- ing scoring capabilities. The other forward, Greg Schmitz of Ray- mond, was second in scoring with 351 points for a 1 3.5 average. He led the club in field goal percentage, converting 114 of 208 field goal attempts for 54.8 percent, in rebounding with 208 for an 8.0 average and in assists with 121. The Knights closed out the conference season with a road sweep of the University of Dubuque and Upper Iowa. Merritt and Schmitz combined for 46 points to help down Dubuque, 81 -65. Senior Bobby Garris was the only other player in double figures with 10 points. That same night Wil- liam Penn lost to Simpson, falling into a first-place tie with the Knights. In the contest at Upper Iowa, junior cen- ter Dan DeVries came off the bench to lead a balanced scoring attack, with 18 points. Schmitz and senior Steve Schuiz each scored 15, while Merritt added 12 points. Wortburg played perhaps its finest game of the year Friday, Feb. 1 8, when it used 68 percent shooting from the field to upend Simpson 87-70 in Knights Gym. I question whether there was a finer Iowa Conference game played this sea- son than the Wartburg-Simpson game, Levick said. Both teams played excep- tionally well. The shooting was great; there were few floor errors; and the defense was intense. It was a shame either team had to lose. It is a little unusual that in a game that meant so much to both teams that both played so well. Usually, that kind of pres- Senior Greg Schmitz makes a layup in the Simpson game which Wartburg won at home. 87-70. sure takes its toll. An unusual feature in the game was 18 three-point goals, 11 by Simpson, includ- ing eight by forward Keith Edmonds, who was coming off a knee injury. Levick also complimented Wortburg ' s fans who turned out for Senior Citizens and Family Night. It was a great crowd considering the fact that we were on mid-term break, and many of our students weren ' t here. I want the people to know that our players really appreciate that kind of support. As a team, the Knights outscored their opponents 1 ,942-1 ,631 and outrebounded them 1,034-878. 163 The Lady Knights CROSS COUNTRY Injuries were the key problem for the Lady Knights Cross Country team. Despite that fact, the team finished third In the Iowa Conference Meet in Oskaloosa. Coach Ron Alexander said the team could have performed better If they had been Injury free. Nearly every runner, from the number one runner on down, was suf- fering some ailment. The Knights finished third with 70 points, behind champion Central which had 24 and second-place Luther which had 42. Only three conference schools were re- presented with full teams, but Alexander knows from experience how difficult start- ing a program can be. Cross country Is a difficult program to get started, Alexander said. If the runners aren ' t dedicated and If they don ' t enjoy running, they won ' t stay out. Alexander added that the women should be proud of their third-place finish in the Iowa Conference. I think we would have been third even if every school had a team, Alexander said.

Wartburg finished third in the match, which closed the Knights ' season. Briar Cliff shot a team score of 724 to win the title. Central shot 750 for second and Wartburg took third with 778. Wartburg coach Earnest Oppermann was voted Division III Coach of the Year by the other coaches. Oppermann thought he received the honor in part because of his taking such a young team this year. Freshman Stacey Snyder paced the Knights with a 36-hole total of 1 87, good for sixth overall in the tournament. She fin- ished by being named to the IIAC All- Conference team, but missed All-State se- lection by two strokes. Sophomore Kim Powell shot 189; junior Kathy Koppenhaver a 193; freshman Lau- rel Kauffman shot 209, and freshman Anita Raffety shot 21 9 to round out the scoring for that meet. Kim Powell makes a put during practice before ttie start of ttie season. Oppermann was particularly pleased with Snyder ' s performance throughout the year. She played outstandingly for us all year, Oppermann said. She came through beautifully for a freshman. Snyder led the Knight efforts which placed them second behind Central In both the Simpson Invitational and the William Penn Invitational. The progress of our younger players has been phenomenal, Oppermann said. Snyder has been the Lady Knights ' me- dalist twice and Koppenhaver once.

We got off to kind of a shaky start in our first match against Dubuque, said Meyer. Meyer cited junior Lori Hawn, sopho- more Sheri Dean and freshman Toni Gor- man as having the best individual perfor- mances in the tournament. Meyer was particularly pleased with her squad ' s hitting and blocking for the sea- son. She cited Gorman as being a plus in hitting along with junior Sue Lynch. Our top blockers have been (senior) Nancy Delp and (junior) Sue Miner, Meyer said. Overall, I was pleased with our perfor- mance for the season, Meyer said.

Coach Kathy Meyer was pleased with the start of her squad, but said they needed to work more on defense, rebounding and scoring. Seven letterwinners returned from last year ' s team and many tranters and fresh- men added to the overall strength. Meyer said the team is a young and inexpe- rienced one, but the new additions were from out of state. That will help turn that weakness into a strength, Meyer said. The team was hampered by a mid- season slump, however, and closed out the season with a 7-14 record. The record is deceiving, Meyer said, since two forfeit wins over Upper Iowa were- n ' t awarded to the Knights. Upper Iowa was unable to field a team for its two games against the Knights. Wartburg had a .500 record when the players went home for Christmas break, but then dropped 1 0 of their final 1 3 games to finish 7-14. Junior Lynn Dose led the Knights in scor- ing and rebounding, as well as eight other categories.

The team gained fans not only among the Wartburg community, but also in Mich- igan and Florida. WJBK-TV. Channel 2. a CBS affiliate In Southfield, Ml, a suburb of Detroit, and Ronnie Clemmer adopted Wartburg ' s foot- ball team early in the season. Jim Lappert of Oldsmar, FL, came across Wartburg In a football pool, was curious enough to go to the city library and look up some background and then form a Wartburg fan club. Clemmer found Wartburg ' s name in a traditional Sunday listing of all the nation ' s football games, called Athletic Director John Kurttfor background Information and promptly put out a feature on why Wart- burg should be on national television. His second effort was major. He obtained a Wartburg jacket and tee-shirt, engaged a Cedar Rapids photographer from KGAN to shoot the Wartburg Homecoming game. Interview queen Carlene Schlpper, Coach Don Canfield and quarterback Gary Wall jasper. He also obtained a copy of the Wartburg fight song. That ' s not all. He looked all around the Detroit area for a high school which had Wartburg ' s school colors, orange and black, and which started with the letter W. As a result, his second feature had him on the air in Wartburg duds, waving a pen- nant, and the Warren (Ml) High School cheerleaders doing live cheers as the interviews and game films were being shown. The Florida fan club didn ' t get that ambi- tious, but followed Wartburg with great intensity. They received weekly mailings, programs, schedules, pressbooks and ordered sweat- shirts. They also attended the Sunshine Open Wrestling Tournament In Ortando where the wrestling team was entered dur- ing the Christmas holiday season.

The Knights won by only two points. Accomplishments for the year include winning six meets. Including the confer- ence meet, and finishing fourth at the 172 NCAA Regional Meet held in Pella. Cross country Coach John Kurtt said, It was a fantastic season. They were dedi- cated to the goal of winning conference. The Knights travelled to Colorado to engage in sonne higher altitude training. according to runner Jim Buchhelm. It was well worth the trip, and everyone who went was benefitted by the training. It was also a good way to bring the group closer together, Buchhelm said. More details of the harriers ' season appear on pages 158 and 159.

The team lost its first match to Grinnell. 3-0. Emory blamed the loss on poor condi- tioning and illness. We had breakdowns on defense against Grinnell, Emory said. People were not holding their positions on the field. There were a lot of sore muscles, some players had colds and the forward line was just not in very good shape. I am not tryingto make excuses for the team ' s play, but it will take three to four weeks to get the guys in proper shape, he said. As the soccer team shaped up, the competition got tougher. Emory cited the Knox game, a 2-1 loss for the Knights, as the best game we played this year. We had good teamwortc and commun- ication from all our players, Emory said. Goalie Byron Allmandinger. Kirk Vogel (5). Fernando Ramirez (4), and John Hawley (3) successfully block a shot by the Morycrest players at the Homecoming game. This was the first time we played as the unit. This was a total team effort and it would be difficult to pick out a single outstanding player. The team played with gusto and our passing game was greatly improved, said Emory. Emory was pleased with his team ' s per- formance against Cornell but distressed with the game against Coe. We didn ' t play as well as we could have, said Emory of the setback to Coe. We played more aggressive in the front line and had more shots on goal, but unfortunately, some of the kicks went wild. The Coe game was also marred by a time-keeping discrepancy in the first half. We actually played a 60-minute first half instead of 45 minutes, Emory said. It hurt us because they scored two goals after time should have been stopped. The Coe game was also a very physical conHnu l n xt pag 173 The Knights SOCCER conHniMd game, Emory said. In the first tialf of the Cornell game, junior Carlos Ramirez scored Wartburg ' s goal.

Becker, who closed out his career with an 84-25-1 record, also won the award for the most falls in the least amount of time. Becker pinned three opponents in the national meet in a combined time of 5:14. The only other Wartburg wrestler to win the award was Paul Guillaume in 1 977. Becker finished with 67 career pins. Becker qualified for nationals by winning the heavyweight division in the Iowa Con- ference meet, helping the Knights to their fourth-place finish. It was Becker ' s second conference title. Junior Mike Hogan was the Knights ' only other champ, winning the 142-pound di- vision. Hogan pinned his way through the tournament and was named the meet ' s most valuable wrestler. It was Hogan ' s third straight conference title. Hogan lost in the first round of the national meet and was eliminated. He had been seeded eighth. Wrestling Coach Dick Walker was dis- appointed with the Knights ' performance in the conference tourney, but added that a young squad such as his will have pro- blems in a tournament. Younger teams can wrestle inconsist- ently in tournaments as we did, Walker said. He added that the tournament was awfully good and competitive, one of the best in recent years. Wartburg placed seven wrestlers in the semi-final round, but only Becker and Hogan could advance.

Wartburg finished with a 10-4 conference record and a 21-5 overall record. The Knights won their first Iowa Confer- ence title in basketball since 1975. The Knights claimed a share of the con- ference crown by winning their final seven loop games after a 3-4 start. They were denied a playoff spot when it was learned they had violated an NCAA rule by playing 27 contests, one over the Division III limit. Wartburg played 26 regular season games and also participated in a closed scrim- mage with Witham Chevrolet of Cedar Falls. The NCAA counts scrimmages with outside competition. Athletic Director John Kurtt explained that the rule was established so teams don ' t take advantage of the players by scheduling so many games that academic responsibilities are neglected. The Knights earned their share of the title on the final weekend of conference play by beating Dubuque and Upper Iowa on the road. Co-champion William Penn dropped into a tie with Wartburg, losing its second to last game. JV BASKETBALL Aft-eshman guard from LaCrosse, Wl, led Wartburg ' s junior varsity basketball team to a 14-6-1 record. Joe Dunham averaged 22.3 points per game in 21 starts. He converted 1 76 of 334 field goal attempts, including 37 three- point goals, for 52.7 percent, and 80 of 98 fi-ee throws for 81 .6 percent, finishing with 469 total points. The only other player on the squad in double figures was freshman Jeff Muench, a forward, who averaged 10.8 points per game. He led the team in field goal per- centage with 53.9 (83 of 154) and was second in rebounding with 127 for a 6.4 average. conHniMd iwxt pag 175 The Knights BASKETBALL conttnu d Sophomore center Todd Wille led the rebounders with 166 for on 8.3 overage. The fact that only two players averaged in double figures can be explained by the fact that Coach Bob Vossel spread play- ing time around, utilizing 1 1 players in 1 0 or more games. As a team, the junior varsity outscored Its opponents 1 .607-1 .398 and outrebounded them 934-804. oppon©nT Score Vtterbo (Wl) 88-62 St. Francis (IL) 61-59 GtQ nd Vi©w WostrnQf 61-65 Dordt 81-65 St. Olaf (MN) 82-71 Norttiwestem (MN) 65-61 Iowa Wesleyan 84-61 Co© 74-60 Mt.

Wortburg ' s tennis team em- barked on the 1983 campaign with the goal of finishing higher and scoring more points when the next conference meet rolled around. With that in mind, the Knights set out to also improve on their doubles play from the previous year. When the season was over, head coach Don Confield was nothing short of ecstatic. His Knights, backed by Bloke Harms ' 1 7-5 singles record, finished third at the con- ference meet behind Central and four points behind runner-up Luther. I was very pleased with our 10-4 dual meet record in 1983. Coach Confield said. But we were particularly happy with our third place finish and just missing second place by four points. Central continued their domination of the sport, winning eight of nine possible titles with their only loss coming at number two singles where the Knights ' Fernando Ramirez defeated top seed Don Locenby in a three-set thriller. Harms compiled the best won-lost record at 1 7-5 in singles and doubled with Owen Greenough for a 20-7 record. Harms, who also won first place at the Cornell Invita- tional, was named the team ' s Most Valuable Player by a vote of fellow team members. Tim Kurtt stretchies for a shiot during tennis practice. He was the Knights ' number-one singles player. 176 I was really happy to be honored as Most Valuable Player, Harms said, but what made it important to me was that it was a team vote and next year I want to live up to their expectations.

After a winless Texas trip, the Knights failed to play 500 ball the rest of the sea- son and fell to 6-6 in the Iowa Conference race to finish fourth and 1 0-22 in all games. Long time assistant John Kurtt took over the reins but came in contact with the aspects of baseball every first-year head coach dreads, a rugged schedule, lack of hitting and proper defensive execution and the loss of key individuals at desper- ate times of the season. The Knights returned from Texas with empty pockets and were confronted by climate conditions more appropriate for February than April heading into the thick of the conference schedule. Though the Knights only had one double header scrub- bed because of weather, several other games during the remainder of the season were not what Coach Kurtt would have dubbed as excellent playing conditions. At the plate, the Knights batted only .231 as a team. Only freshman Dave Koll and junior Scott Fritz finished the season batting .300 or better. Koll, a freshman outfielder, batted .350 in just over half of the 32 games scheduled. Fritz, who led the Knights in several cate- gories, hit .326 including a team leading 34 hits, four home runs and 20 runs batted in. If that wasn ' t enough for Kurtt to worry about, the Knights ' leading hitter a year ago, Greg Schmitz, played only seven games because of CPA exams while short- stop Bobby Garris was lost during many conference games because of a pulled muscle. Our team ' s inability to hit with men on the bases or in scoring position was a big factor in ourpoorshowing, Kurtt said. The turning point in the season was when Luther swept a pair from us at home. That ' s when we real ized it was going to be one of those years. The rival Norsemen swept the Knights in two extra innings games by scores of 2-1 in 13 innings and 3-2 in nine innings. In a year full of disappointments, one bright spot occurred late in the year when Eric Schwarz watches a pitch during the Luther game. continued nmxl pag 177 The Knights BASEBALL continued the Knights upset the University of Iowa Howkeyes 8-5 at Iowa City. As I look back over the season, my fears about the team ' s ability to hit were well grounded, Kurtt said. Run production was limited and it showed up in our won- lost record. Conference honors went to Steve Schulz. who batted .357 during the conference schedule and led the league in stolen bases with five and was named the Knights ' Most Vol uable Player for 1 983. Mark Merritt was also selected as a utility pitcher. Seven seniors were lost to graduation, pitchers Todd Muellerand Merritt, shortstop Garris, second baseman Schulz and third baseman-pitcher Kirby Klinge along with Schmitz and catcher Dave Nagel. opponent Southwestern 4-12. 3-12 St. Edward ' s 0-3.3-12 Texas Luttieran 6-13. 1-10 St. Mar s Rained out Trinity 3-7 iVlary Hardin-Baylor 2-3. 0-7 UNI Rained out Loras 5-3, 1-6 William Penn Rained out Upper Iowa 6-4. 2-1 Iowa State 6-4. 2-1 Augustana 5-7. 7-0 Iowa 4-9. 8-5 Luthier 1-2. 2-3 Buena Vista 2-3. 6-4 Grand View 11-14.4-16 Simpson 6-5. 4-5 Dubuque 3-0. 5-7 Central 6-8. 9-1 Coe 14-8 TRACK Improvement was the name of the game for the men ' s track team this year. The Knights, who finished fourth in the Iowa Conference last year, went into this year ' s Joel Alexander, a freshman, leads the competition in on indoor track meet at Wartburg meet hoping to improve on last year ' s final score. The Knights, who scored 57 points last year, finished fourth again, but tallied 70 points. Once again, Luther was the cham- pion, scoring 1 73 points. Close behind was Central with 165 and third-place Simpson with 97. Wartburg had two individual champions and two second-place finishers to high- light the meet. Junior Jeff Glow captured the discus title with a throw of 144 ' 3-1 2 .He topped Luth- er ' s Kevin German by almost three feet. Glow qualified for the NCAA national track meet earlier in the year. He competed in the May meet. Junior Rich Barnett was Wartburg ' s other champion, winning the javelin throw. Bar- nett had a throw of 167 ' 6 to top Central ' s Mike Shanahan. Barnett also finished second in the 110- meter hurdles. Barnett, who was the defend- ing champion in the event, was edged by Luther ' s Keith Leroy by :00.5. Senior Dennis Washington was Wartburg ' s other second place finisherfor the Knights, leaping 22 ' 1-1 2 to finish second in the long jump. Washington also finished fourth 178 in the triple jump, leaping 44 ' -3 4 . He is ttie schiool record hiolder in botti events. Ottier top place-winners for thie Knights were senior Brad Smoldt, junior Scott N. Smith and sophomores Dan Huston and Brad Bowman. Smoldt finished fifth in both the shot put and javelin. In the shot put, Smoldt had a throw of 45 ' 5-3 4, while a throw of 148 11 was good for fifth in the javelin. Smith, Wartburg ' s top distance runner, finished fourth in both the 1 0,000 and 5000- meter runs. In the 1 0,000, Smith had a time of 32:20 and in the 5000 had a time of 15:30. Huston also placed in two events, finish- ing fourth in the steeplechase and sixth in the 5000. Running in only his second stee- plechase, Huston finished fourth with a time of 9:48. In the 5000 he had a time of 15:48. Only in his first year out for Wartburg track, Bowman was also able to place in two events. Bowman got sixth-place fin- ishes in both the javelin and the 1 1 0-meter hurdles. Bowman had a throw of 1 48 ' 5-3 4 in the javelin, and a time of :16.09 in the hurdles.

Everythiing just fit righit at Wartburg. Playing golf never entered my mind, said Stacey Snyder, one of Wart- burg College ' s top women golfers. Atttie Simpson Invitational, Snyder placed third. I even got a medal! she said, reaching into her desk drawer, shuffling through papers and finally pulling out her prize. Snyder started golfing when she was eight. My grandfather was a good golfer and his partner eventually became my high school coach. He taught me everything. Snyder wasn ' t sure if she should go out for golf at Wartburg. I was frightened of the competition. I thought it would be different from high school, but it ' s not really. I didn ' t know if I could handle it. She didn ' t have to worry. Snyder was among the top three Wartburg golfers at every meet. Do you remember that question about why I like golf? she asked. Put down that every time you go out it ' s different. SARAH LUn Fook Hee Chan Sarah Lutz, a freshman, takes her running seriously. Three mornings a week I run anywhere from three to six miles, and I have cross country practice every night. There, we either run 8-1 0 miles or work on speed. Lutz sure she ' d go out for cross country ui «.urtburg. I was worried about the competition, but I ended up being surprised. It ' s a lot like high school. I don ' t know what I expected. I guess I thought college would be a lot harder than I was used to. Now I feel that I can handle the compe- tition and am having lots of fun, she said, Lutz, a top runner for the women ' s cross country team, began running in an unus- ual way. Lutz and her family lived in Africa for five years. When they returned to the U.S.. they moved to St. Paul, MN. When we came back my parents said I should join something to meet kids, so I joined a swim team. After six months we moved to Cresco, where there was no swim team, so I had to find something new. I thought to myself, ' Everyone can run, can ' t they? ' so I started running. Lutz chose Wartburg because of its small size and religious connections. I hope to keep running after college too, Lutz said. It ' s a good way to keep in shape, and it ' s fun. FOOK HEE CHAN He doesn ' t look like a football player, standing only 5-8 and weighing just 148 pounds soaking wet, but he ' s Wartburg College ' s version of Jan Stenerud. Senior Fook Hee Chan, of Malaysia, de- cided to give up soccer this fall and play football instead. No, he didn ' t want to mix it up in the trenches or take any punishing blows as a back or receiver. He chose what he could do best — kick. And he did well. Chan, affectionately called Charlie by his teammates, converted 30 of 33 PATs this season, breaking the school record of 21 made by Phil Smoker in 1 968. He also added a field goal in three attempts though the bulk of the Knights ' long distance kicking was done by sopho- more Scott Fritz, who made 11 of 18 field goals, including one of a school record 57 yards. I wanted to try something new, Chan said of his venture into American football. I can play soccer all my life at home. No one plays football there except the Ameri- can kids. I miss soccer (he played three years at Wartburg), but it was my choice. I ' m in my last year here and playing football is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Chan was successful on his first 12 PATs before missing in the William Penn game Oct. 2 and then ended the season with a streak of 1 3 in a row. He said football is a complex game with more strategies and tactics than soccer. 180 It took a wtiile to get used to football, he sold. Since I ' m the kicker I wear the lightest pads, and it feels like the safest position. Chan admittedly avoids contact, but in the Upper Iowa game a bad snap forced him into a blocking situation and, believe it or not, he caught a charging linebacker on the chin somewhat accidentally and down he went. Chan Is a business administration major and plans to continue study for a degree in architecture after leaving Wartburg. When he returns to his homeland, he says he is going to teach his fellow Malaysians about football. That won ' t be for a while though. I ' ll probably stay in school forever, he laughed. It ' s one of the best times of your life, and football makes it even better. Especially kicking. Mike Ward, Brad Smoldt, Dave Koll, Al Latcham The nation ' s second leading scorer in Division III of the NCAA didn ' t play orga- nised football until his second year at Wartburg College. Tailback Mike Ward, a senior, scored 20 touchdowns this season for 120 points, which was first in Division III In terms of points but second in terms of points per game, the NCAA ' s ranking system. I don ' t know exactly why I never went out for football before, Ward said. I wasn ' t anti-competition, but I wasn ' t excited about it either. I worked and had other interests, he said of his high school days. Wartburg Coach Don Canfield was glad Ward changed his mind, because his ac- complishments this year were legion. In addition to leading the Knights in scoring, he was Wartburg ' s leading rusher with 967 yards in 190 carries and leading pass receiver with 39 receptions for 603 yards. This earned him Most Valuable Player honors on the squad by vote of his team- mates and MVP honors in the Iowa Con- ference by unanimous vote of the coaches. Offensive tackle senior Brad Smoldt was named to the 1982 Sports Information Directors ' All American DMsion III third team in football. The All American squad was selected by a panel of 1 5 Sports Information Directors from Division III schools across the nation. Smoldt, who was a co-captain of this fall ' s Knights, earlier had been a unani- mous pick on the All Iowa Conference first team and was named the winner of the Lynes-Koob Award, which annually goes to the senior judged by the coaches to have made the largest contribution to the football team as a player and student and for his positive attitude toward team develop- ment. Smoldt, who also is an Academic All American nominee, was key to a line which permitted the Knights to set 22 offen- sive school records during the season. Two other players were given top honors this season. Split end Dave Koll was voted the Most Valuable Freshman by the squad, and ju- nior linebacker Al Latcham was voted the winner of the Oil Can Award by his team- mates. Koll earned a starting position after the fourth game this season and wound up with 21 receptions for 460 yards and four touchdowns. The Oil Can Award goes to the non- starter who is judged by the coaches to make the biggest contribution to the squad ' s practices. Sheri Dean, Sue Miner, Sue Lyncli, Lori Hawn, Toni Gorman, Mary Reis, Nancy Delp, Teresa Zimmerman, Martha Hunt Sheri Dean was named the Most Valua- ble Player on the volleyball team by vote of her teammates.

Delp was the only senior on the squad. scon BECKER Wartburg wrestling coach Dick Walker remembers well the first time he saw his heavyweight, Scott Becker, wrestle. It was at the Grundy Center Invitational in high school, Walker said. I couldn ' t figure out how a guy as small as Becker could pin those big, lumberjack-sized heavyweights. The six-foot, 250 pound senior is rarely considered small until he steps out on the wrestling mat and is sized up against his opponents, who are usually taller than Becker and often outweigh him. But something else that outweighs Becker are his accomplishments in wrestling. After finishing second in Class A at the State Wrestling meet while at Don Bosco High School, he enrolled at Wartburg and won or placed in the Iowa Conference tourna- ment the past three years while rolling up a 78-23 career record. Becker won the heavy- weight championship as a sophomore and placed third as a freshman and second as a junior. He also has qualified for the NCAA Division III Wrestling Tournament each year. Walker calls Becker a gambler and attributes that, plus better quickness and balance, to his success as a pinner. And pinning is what Becker does best. Of his 78 career wins, 65 have been by pins. He carries a 26-4 mark this season, with 21 coming by fall. We were always told to wrestle aggress- ively and work for the fall at Don Bosco, Becker said. A 55-24 career record while wrestling for Coach Dan Mashek at Don Bosco yielded 42 pins. Scott was an exceptional pinner in high school, Walker said. Much of his success can be attributed to the fact that he wrestled in an excellent high school program. Most wrestlers can expect to wrestle either six or seven minute matches when they compete but not Becker. The 30 matches he has wrestled this season should total 160 minutes, but Becker has only 83 minutes of actual mat time, an amazingly low number even in the heavyweight division, where falls often occur. Winning and pinning are what has become expected of Becker, though. You can usually put six team points on the scoreboard before Becker goes out to wrestle, Walker said. Scott has a unique personality and is in a class by himself as far as wrestling goes, said Walker. You enjoy having people like this in the program because they don ' t come around very often. MARK MERRin Wartburg College basketball coach Buzz Levick stands by the statement he made at the beginning of this past season regard- ing the three-point play being used in the Iowa Conference. We should try it for a year and then when Mark Merritt graduates, the confer- ence should drop it. he joked in November. This season, Merritt averaged 20.8 points in all games and 18.5 in league play which ranked him fourth. He led the Knights in scoring, was second in rebounding with 1 73 and was second in assists with 83. Merritt, a 6-4, 180 lb. senior, saw his col- legiate basketball career capped when the Knights won a share of the MAC title, his first and Levick ' s 10th at Wartburg. Winning honors is commonplace for the rangy, sharpshooting forwa rd. As a sopho- more, he earned second team All IIAC honors and in 1982 and this year he was named to the first team. Merritt joined the Wartburg 1 ,000 point club midway through this season and is in seventh place on Wartburg ' s all-time scoring list with 1,309 points. Primarily known as a scorer, Merritt im- proved into what Levick called, a com- plete player. He plays sound defense and 182 rebounds well, In addition to his outstand- ing scoring capabilities. He Is a very coachi- able athilete and hias thie ability to turn games around because of h s great abil- ity. He Is a dedicated attilete and really exemplifies whiat you want in a basketball player. A player of Mark ' s talent doesn ' t come thiroughi thie Iowa Conference or Wartburg very often. LYNN DOSE, TAMMY GARRISON, LISA KOOP, MOLLY PeGROOTE Center Lynn Dose has been named the Most Valuable Player on Wartburg Col- lege ' s 1982-83 women ' s basketball team. Dose became the third woman basket- ball player to join the 1 ,000 Point Club as she averaged 1 7.5 for the 7-14 season. Dose, who was named to the first Al I Con- ference team following the season, scored 367 points to run her career total to 1 ,079 with one year still to go. She has a shot at Wartburg ' s all-time leading scorer. She trails Cheryl Pueggel. who played in 1974- 78, by 237 points. She was one of five collegiate basketbal I players named to the Kodak All-District Women ' s Basketball Team for District V of the Small College Division, which includes Iowa, Kansas, Missouri. Nebraska, North Dakota. Oklahoma and South Dakota. The team is selected by the Women ' s Basketball Coaches Association. Dose led the Lady Knights in virtually every offensive category except free throw and field goal percentage and assists. She converted 155 of 331 field goal attempts for 46.8 percent but only 57 of 1 21 free throws for 47.1 percent. She more than doubled every other player on the squad in rebounds with 268. a 1 2.8 average. Other award winners were Lisa Koop. given the Spirit Award; Tammy Garrison, named the Most Improved; and Molly DeGroote. voted the Most Valuable Junior Varsity Player. The selections were made by vote of squad members. Koop averaged 2.8 points in 1 0 games; Garrison 5.8 points in 21 gomes; and DeGroote averaged 16.6 for the Junior Varsity. PETE STEINHAUER A senior golf player for the Wartburg team said he started playing golf about ten years ago. I didn ' t really hove a teacher, but did play with my brother and friends, said Pete Steinhauer, a top player for the team. I didn ' t ploy my fourth year because we moved to Kansas, but did play my first three years of high school. I didn ' t really have to make a decision to play golf in college, I just sort of did It. I saw I could probably moke the team, so I tried out and made It, Steinhauer said. The best game of golf Steinhauer has shot was lost year in a dual with Central College at Pel la. He reported shooting a 69. Steinhauer said that when he was young- er his dad, two brothers and he would make a foursome. My dad really didn ' t teach me anything because I was better than he was. but he would encourage me and try to give me pointers anyway. The four of us had some good times together. Steinhouer ' s dad, Harold, a member of the Wartburg Board of Regents since 1 980. died Thursday. Jan. 27, in Madison, Wis- consin. Many things hove happened to Stein- hauer since he arrived at Wartburg. He announced his engagement to Kelly Goodwin this winter but hasn ' t set a wed- ding date yet. I want to finish my schooling and settle into a job first, Steinhauer said about his marriage to Goodwin. She has been very patient and good to me. Steinhauer also made a financial con- tribution to the Chellevold House fund. While playing Nerf basketball on the makeshift house court. Steinhauer made a flying leap to moke a shot. He missed the shot but not the large picture window. As a result, he received 13 stitches and a $350 bill from the college. Steinhauer said he liked being a port of the golf team. It ' s a lot of fun and I really enjoy it. We don ' t always come through at conttniMd next pag r 1 Lynn Dose 1 Molly DeGroote Pete Steintiouer 183 Leading Athletes GOLF continued the big meets, but we do work well to- gethier. Owen Greenough OWEN GREENOUGH Growing up in Wcverly gave Owen Gree- nough plenty of chances to familiarize himself with the tennis program at Wart- burg. When graduation rolled around for him in 1 980, he didn ' t have to move farfrom home to get an education or play com- petitive tennis. Born in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, Gree- nough and family eventually made their way to Waverly. By the time he reached high school, Greenough was already very much into tennis, although he had had other interests like gymnastics, soccer and basketball. Greenough lettered three times at Waverly-Shell Rock High School playing number three singles his sophomore and junior seasons before being elevated up the chart to number one singles his senior year. It was that same senior season, Gree- nough made it to the State Tennis Tourna- ment in doubles with then partner and cur- rent partner Blake Harms. Upon graduation, Greenough opted for near-by Wartburg College, where his fresh- man year Greenough broke the top six players and played number six singles for head coach Don Canfield and placed second in that flight at that year ' s confer- ence meet. His sophomore season, Greenough moved up to number five singles and placed third in that year ' s conference flight. Greenough also broke into doubles his sophomore year, taking second place in the third flight doubles. Lastyear as a junior, Greenough nudged his way toward the top, playing at the number four singles position, and placed fourth and teamed again with Blake Harms to take second place at number three doubles. Interests and activities for Greenough include being on Hebron Dorm Council, intramurals, politics and wildlife. His hob- bies are of the typical college-going age: listening to his stereo, going to concerts and participating in frisbee golf games. Greenough says he doesn ' t have any personal goals as such for himself but rather has goals for the tennis team. My goal for our tennis team is to win a conference championship, Greenough said. I want to do my part to contribute toward that goal so maybe next year, that goal may be reality. With his major in business administra- tion. Greenough hopes to someday land a job in a personnel office of a business, or sell securities and retirement programs for an area finance institution. Lastly, and what Greenough considers more important than the rest, he plans to be married the fall following his gradua- tion from Wartburg College. LORI SCHAFER Leading the lady softballers in nearly every category, Lori Schafer had herself one of those years that rarely come around and are seldom forgotten. As a sophomore, Schafer paced the lady ' s team not only in batting averages with a .353, but also in games played with 22, 68 at bats, 24 hits, three doubles and six triples while knocking in 1 7 runs. She also was honored at season ' s end as first team all-Iowa Conference catcher. Schafer prepped at Greene, where she was involved in volleyball, basketball, soft- ball and track and tallied a total of 14 letters throughout her high school career including seven all-conference honors. Her interest eventually carried over to college where Schafer narrowed her activi- ties to vol lybal I and softbal I but she remains active between seasons. I like watching other athletes in action and enjoy participating in them myself, Schafer said. When I ' m not active in athlet- ics, you can find me kite flying, fishing or anything else that involves being outdoors. Majoring in physical education. Schafer hopes her participation in a variety of dif- ferent sports will help her in her pursuit of a teaching and coaching position. My search, once I graduate, will be toward a smaller community wtiere I can teach and tiopefully build a strong soft- ball program, Schafer said. I know I wont to coach Softball, but I feel I can coach just about anything the school or community would want me to. When school ' s outforthe summer, Schafer stays involved with young people by act- ing as camp counselor at the area girl scout camp. I like working with kids whenever I can get the chance. Schafer said. Spending time with my friends and with kids are the two things I enjoy most. SCOTT FRITZ Scott Fritz is one of those unique individ- uals who couldn ' t care less how he did during any given gome. What Fritz is more concerned about is how the team he plays for is doing. I just try to help the team as much as I can, Fritz said. I try to do my best at all times, and if we win, it pays off. If the name Fritz sounds familiar to the ears of those who follow Wartburg football, Scott played on the 1 982 conference cham- pionship team which qualified forthe nation- al play-offs for the first time in the college ' s history. His achievements don ' t stop at the grid iron but rather carry over to baseball, where the junior either led, was tied for or finished second in 1 0 separate statistics for last Spring ' s diamondmen. Fritz led the Knights with 34 hits, five dou- bles, four home runs and 20 runs batted in while finishing second in runs scored with 18. A triple and a pair of sacrifices helped his .326 batting average. He appeared in a club high of 32 games for the 1 0-22 base- ball season. When not in uniform for the Wartburg Knights, Fritz relaxes during the off season by playing intramural sports and enjoys the competitive nature of racquetball. Fritz reflects his interests as those of the outdoor sportsman, enjoying hobbies like collecting different things, fishing, skiing, golfing and participating in a summer basketball program at home which allows the 6 ' 5 -235 junior to keep in touch with baseball when he ' s not on the diamond for coach John Kurtt. Fritz participated in football, basketball, baseball and golf while in his high school days at Postville. He had received a total of 16 athlete letters by the time he had enrolled at Iowa State where he went for one year before transferring to Wartburg. Fritz was a wal k-on punter kicker for Donnie Duncan ' s Cyclones but failed to see varsity playing time. Fritz plans to graduate and has aspira- tions of achieving success in a manage- ment position. In the summer time, before he does graduate, Fritz can be found either at the ball park or at his summer job. If those two fail to surface him it ' s a safe bet that the golf course manager can point him out. I like to golf when I have the chance, Fritz said, the only problem is finding the time to hit the links. LIZ ROGERS Reprinted with permission from the Water- loo Courier, written by JACK BENDER If true grit an ail-American makes, Wart- burg runner Liz Rogers should earn that honor easily this season. Her goal is to run a 2:15 or faster in the half-mile event this season and win oll- American honors at the national meet May 23. (Rogers ran a 2:14 half-mile to win first place at the conference meet). A two-week bout with pneumonia this spring — plus the fact that she is married and has on infant son — may keep her from that official piece of paper. But don ' t tell her. She already is an all-American in every way, even without it. The road to her senior season of colle- giate running has been a long one. As Elizabeth Mitchell at Charles City high, she was named to the all-state track team after taking second in the half-mile event at the state outdoor meet and first in the state in the quarter-mile indoors. She was recruited by Iowa and ran there her freshman year. However she didn ' t like contlniMd rwxt pog Leading Athletes TRACK Rich Barnett it there. There was a lot of pressure in the track program at Iowa, she explains. Running is your entire life. I just didn ' t have enough time for studies or anything else. So she quit track, and Iowa. Her parents talked her into enrolling at a two-year col lege, Iowa Lakes at Estherville. She completed her two-year degree there, then decided to continue on and enrolled at Wartburg. At first, she didn ' t come out for track. She got a parttime job after classes. However, coach Elizabeth Wuertz got Wartburg ' s ail- American cross country runner, Doug Rogers, to talk her into coming out for the women ' s cross country team. She eventually agreed to return to the sport but, since she was unable to run at many of the regular practices, she was paired with Rogers for informal practices. A friendship blossomed and eventually they were married. At the end of the school year, they moved to Minneapolis and she really didn ' t intend to return to school. A year or so later, Aaron Mitchell Rogers was born and the subject of college came up again. They decided to return to Wartburg last fall. Doug Rogers didn ' t compete in cross country this year, even though he still has a year of eligibility left. Instead, he ' s working so his wife can complete her degree. He still needs to student teach to complete his. Young Aaron stays with a babysitter when Liz attends classes and he usually accom- panies his mother to track practice. Not the usual lifestyle or training routine for an outstanding athlete, but Liz Rogers has demonstrated what determination — and a goal — can do. Rogers has qualified for the national meet and may see the dream of being an all-American runner, like her husband, come true. nett, though, success has come some- what easy, but not without work. Barnett, who stars in both basketball and track, was the starting center on this year ' s Iowa Conference champion basketball team, and won the javelin title and finished second in the 110-meter hurdles in the conference track meet. The two sports, which overlap somewhat, have not hindered Barnett ' s performance in either sport. There is a disadvantage in the indoor season, Barnett explained about the track season, but when it comes to the outdoor season, I ' m not burned out. This was another year which Barnett did not burn out. Throughout the season, Barnett improved his times in the hurdles and his distance in the javelin throw. But for the defending champion in the hurdles, finishing second was somewhat of a disappointment. Despite finishing second, Barnett improved his time. I ' m disappointed I didn ' t win the race, but I still improved my time, Barnett said. Winning the javelin was something dif- ferent. At best. Barnett expected just to place, and maybe not that high. The competition has usually been stiff in the javelin. i I felt fortunate to win the javelin because I the guy who finished second, qualified for i nationals (The NCAA national track meet), Barnett said. I was just able to get a good throw off in the bad conditions. For the second year in a row, Barnett was voted the team ' s most valuable athlete. One goal still eludes him, though. My goal for next year is to qualify for national in the highs (hurdles). Barnett said. If hi s improvement continues, that goal could be easily attainable.
