1988 FORTRESS VOLUME 53 WARTBURG COLLEGE NEUMANN PUBLICATION HOUSE 722 SECOND AVE. NW WAVERLY, I A Tradition and Pride. Words Wat bring to mind rich history and a solid future. Words that bring to mind Wartburg College. Throughout the 1987-88 school year, the Wartburg family has grown together through tremendous wins and heartbreaking losses. But through it we built on the traditions of Wartburg, and carried the pride in our hearts. Together we experienced — the Year of the Knight. I I Junior Al Vandenburgh shows his Wartburg spirit by selling Homecomi ng balloons. 3 Seniors Sharon Krogen and Will Safris seem happy to be back! During the first week of every school year, the freshmen at Wartburg are a select group. They are struggling to remember names, faces and buildings. Each year they are assisted with these through initiation, a fun-filled week for freshmen as well as upperclassmen. In recent years, initiation activities have been held for a few days during the first week of school and the the President dubbed the freshmen Knights during the first football game. This year, however, President Vogel wanted to return to having initiation officially continue until Outfly. Initiation began with Balloon Day this year. This required freshmen to carry two balloons with them all day so upperclassmen could identify them as Frosh . The week continued with such events as a scavenger hunt, an outdoor dance, freshmen cheers at halftime of the Alumni football game and New Games Day. I had a lot of fun with initiation, freshman Kim Adolphs said. I met lots of new people and it made me feel included right away in life at Wartburg. Friends gather together again at one of the traditional Wartburg picnics. 4 A traditional part of initiation occurs on the individual floors of the residence halls. The upperclassmen on the floor ' s deternnine what requirements their Frosh have to meet, and creativity is always exercised. Some of these floors options include bathroom drills, air raid drills, salutations of upperclassmen, as well as many others. These activities help floor freshmen and upperclassmen get to know each other and provide a solid base for the forming of friendships. Freshmen initiation gave me the opportunity to meet many upperclassmen, fr eshman Michelle Steege said. It showed me that they didn ' t think of us as ' lowly freshmen ' , but accepted us as people. While coming to college can often be a somewhat confusing, and even scary, time for freshman, the bonds with fellow freshmen and upperclassmen that are formed during initiation last much longer than the frightening feelings. As with every school year, students head to class with their books. Junior Lori Lensch waits for some help to come! 5 7 Senior Tom Biedermann and ' junior CeCe Reading perform a duet at Kastle Kapers. Re-U-Knight was the theme of Wartburg ' s 1987 Homecoming, bringing knights from near and far together again. During the week, students participated in a number of activities, including a pep rally, featuring competition between the Fall sports teams. The weekend of events began with Kastle Kapers, a student variety show, which brought a full auditorium a night of entertainment. The coronation of the royalty took place between the two performances. Mark Kauffman and Joan Busch were crowned King and Queen. Members of their court included Lisa Lahr, Brad Ott, Robin DeSautel, Monte Bowden, Trish Comer, Michelle Quam, and Casey Cason. The Renaissance Faire, a Wartburg Homecoming tradition, featured artisans from all over the MkJwest. Campus and community organizations displayed and sold arts, crafts, and food. Live entertainment was provided by the Jesse White Tumbling Team, a nationally recognized group from Chk;ago. Even after a dissappointing loss to Central, the festivities still continued as students danced at the Red Fox Inn, in the Three Seasons Room. The weekend of events was brought to a close with a Homecoming Concert, featuring the Concert Band, Castle Singers, Chamber Orchestra and Wartburg Choir. The excitement of the weekend flourished as old acquantances were remembered and new friendships were made. The Wartburg Cheerleaders fire-up the crowd at the Homecoming parade. 10 11 ' We officially dub you Knights! After almost losing the Outfly privilege in 1986, Wartburg students experienced a Fall Term Outfly that was new this year, though old in tradition. The new Outfly was called by President Vogel in the morning so that no students knew when it would be called. This is how Outfly was called many years ago, although in recent years the students have called it on the eve of the day off. With this new form a great deal of responsibility fell onto the shoulders of Student Activities Committee (SAC) to plan the day ' s events. Thus, many ideas were examined and the day ' s schedule was planned and finalized so that it could be put into action on any day the President decided would be Outfly. It was a definite success, SAVC President Gail Sutton said. We tried a few new things and brought back some old traditions. It went over very well. The day began with President Vogel declaring Outfly at the Victory Bell and the activities didn ' t end until after a dance late that night. Other events included a giant snake dance through Waverly, the official dubbing of the freshmen as Knights, a blanket movie, outdoor meals and a city-wide clue game. Although the revised Outfly was very different from previous years, most upperclassmen enjoyed and encouraged the start of a new tradition. I think the changes made this year were positive, said senior Marlys Thomas. It makes a lot of sense to have planned activities for the campus instead of unstructured parties. Whether a freshman experiencing Outfly for the first time or a senior experiencing it for the last, Fall Term Outfly 1987 will be a special memory, and with the changes, Outfly ' s rich tradition will continue at Wartburg for many years to come. President Bob Vogel, KWWL news anchor Ron call Outfly. Students gather together to chant We are Wartburg! and We want Outfly! 12 Steele, and student body president Brenda Ackarman prepare to Students join, in the Snake Dance on Outfly morning. The Celebration begins as Outfly ' 87 has officially been declared. 3 arents EEKENP l VE MISSED YOU, MOM AND DAD! A Fortress poll asked students what they missed the most about being away from home. The top ten responses are as follows: 1 . My family 2. My friends 3. Being able to ask my dad for money 4. Real, edible food 5. Watching what I want on TV 6. Having my own room 7. Having a real bed 8. Not having to share a bathroom with thirty other people 9. Being able to get to sleep at a normal time 1 0. Not having to fight to wear my own clothes Senior Peggy Neale — a picture is worth a thousand words. Crazy days. Long nights. The student life at Wartburg is anything but boring. And who do we have to thank for that? Friends. Friends. Friends. Keeping a watchful eye over 30 some people isn ' t an easy job, but someone has to do it. What is this often hard, but usually thankless job? The definition of a Resident Assistant isn ' t an easy one. Peacemaker? Judge? Friend? Enemy? Or the lucky one on the floor with the single? Being an R.A. has its share of ups and downs, that ' s for sure. It ' s not easy to try and keep discipline on a floor when you are responsible for people who are your own age-or even your friends. But being an R.A. is also a worthwhile learning experience for those that are brave enough to try it. Not only do you increase your people skills, but responsibility is a close second on the list. And even though the job often involves the dirty jobs, like babysitting a drunk floor member, or lending a shoulder to a homesick freshman, the job of Resident Assistant has its own rewards. EYE Seniors Melissa Palmer and Stephanie Metz take a break from their RA duties Senior RA Melissa Palmer relaxes with housemate Will Safris. 18 p Seniors Dave Peterman and Tami Kuester share a happy moment after graduation. Dating. Tlie thought brings to mind many different ideas for different people, but at Wartburg the most common Is— What? Affectionately referred to as The Dating Capital of the World, Wartburg has not been rated high — probably not even rated — for its social life. Is there any hope? According to some students, dating may not be the thing to do every Friday and Saturday night, but it does exist. Junior Jodi Nelson and senior Brad Ott consider studying in the Library, or lunch in the Caf, a date. A date doesn ' t mean we have to go out and spend money, says Nelson. It just means spending time together. Dinner Sunday night seems to be the popular time for couples to go out on campus, and many do. Whether for pizza, or Hardee ' s, or cooKing tnemseives, several students consider it a ritual. While it may not be as common as on other campuses, dating does exist at Wartburg — have no fear! Junior Jodi Nelson congratulates senior Brad Ott after graduation. 19 G BEEN A HOME FIT FOR A PRESIDENT President and Mrs. Vogel know what it ' s like to move in at the beginning of the year-just like all the other students at Wartburg. This fall marked a beginning of a new tradition, one that included the president of the college not living on campus. The new president ' s home, called Greenwood, sits overlooking the campus, just north of Waverly Manor. The home, built in the early 1900 ' s, was restored and renovated for the president of the college. The home, purchased from the Juhl family and renovated through a private donation, will be a focal point for the college for years to come. 20 THE The Residence Hall opened its doors to students early this fall. The format for applying for admittance in the hall is based on a concept of a living learning residential hall.Students in groups of eight applied to live in the same unit. These students were then responsible for a community learning project. This alternative to the regular dorm experience is just another way for students to learn while they live. A living experlence..students living in the Residence enjoy the comforts of home with family-style lounges. 21 NO GUTS 5 NO GUOBY A typical meal at the Wartburg cafeteria usually does not consist of crab meat and rice, however, for senior Amy Cummings, it ' s the recipe for success. Cummings, who is from Menomonie, Wl, started body building a little over three years ago at a gym in Waterloo. I have always been strong, says Cummings. I was involved in gymnastics when I was younger and the strength has just stayed with me. Although she spends a lot of time lifting weights, Amy also has plenty of time for studying. Amy is a Computer Information Systems major who would like to find a job in the programming capacity. Tournaments also take up alot of her time, and she tries to compete as much as possible. Competing makes all the work and pain worthwhile to me, says Cummings. Judging from her drive and determination. Amy Cummings will be a force to be reckoned with on the job and in the weight room. 22 THE S ITC TELL Going on 61 years as the centerpiece to the Wartburg campus, the Fountain has many stories to tell. It was given to the college as a gift from the Class of 1927 to make Wartburg more pleasant, and was installed during the fall of that year. Since that time the fountain has seen some changes. The new circulation system and lights were added in 1965, ending two of Wartburg ' s long-standing traditions. Goldfish swam in the pool below the fountain up until that time. During the winter they were kept in a fish tank in the boiler room of Luther Hall. The second tradition was the initiation of freshman by dunking them in the fountain ' s pool. It was feared that students may be electrocuted by the new system. Many hijinks still occur with the fountain today. On a hot May Term day, you may spot a student try to sneak a swim in the pool, and dunking does still occur. The most popular stunt has been the addition of bubbles to the water, giving the appearance of a wash machine on the blink. Still, the fountain has remained the centerpiece for many years, and will continue to do so for many more. Whether passing on the way to class, or used as a meeting spot for students, the fountain will long be remembered by many students. PABTV OVER- Wartburg students find just about anything a reason to have a party. How about a high grade on an exam? Or the job offer you have been praying would come through? What about a win over Luther? Or maybe a loss to Luther? As you can see, the possibilities are endless, and students have found various ways of celebrating these special occasions. First, there is your basic call your friends and invite them over kind of party. These, however, have a way of being advertised on campus and before long the news in the caf on Friday is a party in your room. Then there are the Joe ' s get togethers on any night of the week — no explanation necessary. Finally, and especially popular during May term, are the parties at Kohlmann. These seem to have a special feeling about them, maybe the fresh air or fight for the keg that is bound to happen. Whatever the reason, these are popular. Now there are, upon occasion, those times when students have a special reason to celebrate and this calls for a different place. Many students have found the Red Fox a relaxing place, and many students enjoy the Brown Bottle. Whatever the occasion, students at Wartburg find little trouble in deciding reasons to party. How about a party tonight? Why? Just because! Join us! . , . Sophomore Amy Jenner, junior Jackie Roe, and seniors Al Duminy and Jan Dass enjoy a May Term Party. 24 What a party...S6r ors Dixie Helps, Sharyn Krogen, and Brenda Ackarman enjoy themselves at a party. Isn ' t this fun? . . . ask seniors Will Safris, Jeff Schumacher, Todd Johnson, junior Tony Runkle, senior Matt Margheim, and Tom Burrier. 25 Dance, Dance, Dance. This year ' s MDA Dance Marathon was a big success. 26 ROOM MATES- They ' re the people you love to hate. And they ' re the people you hate to love. But whatever the situation, a roommate brings both good and bad things into your life. Students are assigned roommates right from the start- in fact they are often our first impression of the college. This can be either positive or negative. Students who have never had to share a bathroom, find living on a floor with 30 other people a challenge to say the least. Students who spent their highschool years being night owls and watching TV or studying till all hours of the night, also have to make some major adjustments. Being away from home for the first times does different thing to different people. It turns some into chatterboxes, others into wallflowers. No matter how things turn out, one thing about roommates will always hold true-they see you at your best and your worst. They are a large part of college life, and you ' ll always feel the impact they had on your life. Frgshmmroonjmat0M Angle and Iris have a lot of fun. 28 Juniors Dave Rulifson and Jim Becker are trusting roommates. ' Triends Forever! . . . Sophomore Cristina Anacabe and senior Tami Kuester take a break from packing to pose. Friends. Fun. Together they are irreplaceable, and the best piace to find them is in a campus organization. Whether fieid reiated or Just for fun, Wartburg is built on the extracurricular activities of its students. Being involved in a variety of groups is an extended education bonus of Wartburg. The definition of an organization doesn ' t necessarily mean large numbers of people Organizations are a way of life-whether it ' s a whole group or just a party of two!!! ALPHA CHI Front: A.

This is her philosophy on life and if anyone has achieved it, she certainly has. As a physical education major, she understands the need for people to do well at something. Physical Education is a different atmosphere than the regular classroom, Fuller said. Each student can experience success. Physical education is development socially, physically, emotionally, and it ' s fun. During her fall term she was a student teacher in Parkersburg for elementary and high school physical education classes. She enjoys seeing the students respond with enthusiasm when they do well. They get so pumped, and working with them is fun, she said. This year, Fuller was honored as Outstanding Physical Education major of the year, by the National Association for Sports and Physical Education (NASPE). The award recognizes outstanding students majoring in physical education or a sports related field in colleges and universities with professional preparation programs. She was nominated by Dr. Nancy Anderson, professor of physical education, who believed Fuller had an excellent chance because of her high grade point and the fact that she relates well and is active on campus. Fuller is a member of the Physical Education Club and W-Club, director of intramural athletic activities, and serves on the Athletic Committee, which organizes athletics for the Iowa Conference. She also enjoys her work study job at the Physical Education Center. I like my job because there are a lot of students and Knight Sports Club members to interact with, Fuller said. Amy Fuller expected a lot of herself, and she got a lot back. 40 SPOTLIGHT TRUE My goal is to help those who can ' t help themselves, said senior □audi Kaliisa. And I can only do that with the help of other people. As the organizer of a project designed to build a primary school in Miseebe, Uganda, he will be relying on many people to see his dream come true. Kaliisa is also the co-chair of the Ujamaa committee, and has been trying to raise the awareness level of the plight of the Ugandan children in order to gain needed support from the Wartburg community and surrounding churches. I don ' t want children to go through the same thing I went through, he said, referring to the hardships he endured while obtaining an education in Uganda. While in the sixth and seventh grade, Kaliisa had a sixteen- mile round trip walk to school. During the country ' s civil war from 1978 to 1986 many of Uganda ' s primary schools were destroyed, causing the long walks to school to be common in the area. This, combined with the families ' difficulty in paying school fees, causes a high drop-out rate. Uganda is located on the eastern side of Africa and has a population of 15 million. Kaliisa planned to return to Uganda after graduating from Wartburg with a triple major in economics, finance, and International business. He hopes to have the school completed and ready to open in January, at which time he will hand it over to the people. He will also propose to church leaders that by relying on international relatbns and fundraising abilities, churches could continue similar projects throughout the country. Someday, Kaliisa will settle in Uganda, and serve his people. I want to live there and have my children attend school there, he said. His children ' s school will be very special, however. It will be the same school their father worked so hard to establish-the one that made his dream come true. 41 HISTORY CLUB Front: Dr. T. Lindell, P. Weber, P. Frana, L. Ladwig, J. Lynes; Row 2: M.

It ' s just the natural thing to do for sophomore Angle PItz, who has been running competitively since the seventh grade. As a member of the Wartburg women ' s cross country team, she has most often been the first to cross the finish line. But she started as a sprinter. I used to be a sprinter, and I always liked doing the hurdles, Pitz said. I guess I was either taller or faster than most other girls my age, so I usually finished first in the hurdles. Turning to cross country in addition to track during her sophomore year in high school caused a transition in her stride. I guess I developed a long- distance stride, she said. By my senior year I was running the 3000 meter race. Wartburg appealed to Pitz mainly for its academic program. I did want to go to a small college to continue running, she said, But academics was the ultimate reason for my choice. Tendonitis in her thigh has caused a great deal of pain to her, b(i it also helped her decide a future profession. I used to go to a physical therapist, and thought it would be something I would really like to do, Pitz said. While one of her goals is to become a physical therapist, a college goal is to continue to improve her times. She will undoubtedly continue to succeed. When asked the reason for her success already she said: Just lucky, I guess. That luck has proved to work so far, as she is already a strong competitor in the Wartburg running world. 48 SPOTLIGHT Who is that man dressed in orange and black from head to toe? Sophomore Erik Russell has become a common sight at every sporting event at Wartburg during his time here. I thought the crowd was dead and wasn ' t really getting into the games, Russell said. I hoped I could work the crowd up a bit and let the team know someone was behind them 1 00 percent. Russell can ' t play sports because he has cerebral palsy, a condition characterized by paralysis, weakness, lack of coordination and possibly other motor disfunctions. He learned of his condition when he was 17, the summer prior to his senior year. Since that time his life has changed for the better. It was like a burden had been lifted from my shoulders, Russell said. Now [people] know that these are conditions I can ' t change. College has also had a positive effect on Russell. He has become actively involved in campus activities, and this year was named the top money raiser for the Muscular Dystrophy Association dance Marathon. He raised nearly $1,525. I felt it was important to raise money for muscular dystrophy because research in fighting it is crucial, said Russell, who can personnally relate to the cause, as muscular dystrophy is related to his own condition. Other activities in Russell ' s ' busy college life are pep band, Student Alumni Council, Student Activites Dance Committee, Christ ' s Jestures, and the Wartburg Players. This year, Russell played the lead in the play All My Sons. It ' s a major feeling of accomplishment for me, Russell said. As for the future, Russell is an Elementary Education major, and hopes to someday teach third or fourth grade. He ' ll also be the numt er one fan until he graduates from Warttxjrg! 49 PEP BAND Front: C. Gray; Back: D. Glover, A. Rist, T. Letsche, J. Pagel, K. Hummel, M. Bllesner. PI GAMMA MU D. Pedersen, A.

Relieved! said junior Kim Collier, one of the five students to participate in Warlburg ' s Venture Education program. It was a 16- hour flight and a 15-hour Amsterdam layover. Through this program, Collier, and seniors Michelle Baxter, Russ Leeper, Jane Sonnenberg, and Michelle Wikner had a chance to live in Africa and experience their culture. Baxter, Collier, and Wikner worked in Morogoro where they taught biology in a secondary mission school. We had running water (cold) and electricity and everything, said Baxter of the living conditions. I guess I didn ' t think we ' d be living as well as we did, though, added Collier. Leeper lived with a Tanzanian family on a sugar cane plantation, but was close enough to Morogoro that he got to see the others. For Sonnenberg, however, it was quite different. She was with the Ruhija Evangelrcal Mission Academy in a small village. The next closest village was a 45-minute walk, Sonnenberg said. There was no running water or electricity. I had to boil my own water and then purify it too. But aside from the sightseeing, the group admits there is much more they will remember about Tanzania. They didn ' t have much to give, but what they did, they gave, said Leeper, remembering the friendliness of the people. Has it changed their lives now that they are back? For Leeper, it changed his view of the world. You don ' t realize how different the world is until you get there, he said. But then again, you realize how basically similar everyone really is. Collier has felt a change also. I have more belief in myself and what I can do, she said. Sonnenberg, too, enjoyed the experience, calling it a reference point for the rest of her life. I go into the caf , and I notice how much food is wasted, added Leeper. I walk into dorm rooms and see more possessions than any one family has in Tanzania. This was the first year the program was offered, and because of the great response, it will be offered again next year. I ' d definitely encourage people to go, Sonnenberg said. 56 YOU DONE GOOD r Don ' t follow the path, make your own trails, said senior DeAnn Treptow in her speech as the student representative of the Class of 1988, at Commencement. Treptow was the recipient of this year ' s Senior Honor Award, the sixth such award to be granted. She was selected by a vote of the senior class and faculty department chairs from a nomination list of six candidates. This list is compiled by a committee of three students and three faculty members. Her speech encouraged class members, as well as all in attendance, to go out on their own and try something new. She has certainly done this, being actively involved in many campus organizations. She has been on the Student Food Council for four years and has been its president for two; she has been a member of the Student Educators organization for three years; and she has been an Ambassador to prospective students for three years. She has also been a member of Phi Beta Lambda for three years, and president of Delta Mu Delta. As a business education major, she was selected as the senior who made the greatest contribution to the college during her academic career at Wartburg. This includes both academic and extracurricular activities. Ranking in the top 15 percent of her class, Treptow demonstrated leadership in campus organizations and made contributions both on and off campus. Speaking on behalf of the Class of 1988, she thanked faculty members, friends, and family for bringing them this far in their life, and giving them the support and love to continue. You done good! she said. WASE Wartburg Association for Student Educators Row 1: A. Powell, W. Jenson, K. Snitker, L. Lahr, S. Carlson, C. Clapp, S. Myers, J. Morris; Row 2: D. Bissell, S. Hover, R.

The department prepares its students to be competitive in their selected careers. Senior of the Year: Craig SeskerA Martys Thomas ACADEMICS FACULTY CATION The Education Department offers its students just that — an education. From the beginning, students are involved in learning experiences directly involving the young people they will someday be working with. One of the main goals of the department is to keep the education major a four-year program, while not compromising the quality of the program. The senior year, education majors spend one full term in a practical teaching situation. This allows the students an opportunity to get a feel for their future careers. A metropolitan field experience has also been added, which prepares students to teach in a large city. The Education Department gives its students realistic challenges in learning situations. The information gained from these situations are invaluable and benefits students long after graduation. The department gives students a standard of excellence to carry into their own careers. Senior of the Year: Lisa Lahr Marit Beisner Dr. Budlong Education Dr. Stedfeld Education Prof. Schmidt Education Dr. Huth Education ACADEMICS FACULTY Dr. Schneider English Prof. MIchaelson English The English Department prepares its students for a variety of careers by enhancing communication skills necessary for today ' s world. The program offers students a chance to challenge their ideas through learning practical skills. Students majoring in English aid foreign students enrolled at Wartburg by tutoring them on a weekly basis. Tutoring is a part of a successful work study program that benefits these students. This practical experience is invaluable to students. The English Department offers a good, solid curriculum and professors who are genuinely concerned with their students. Senior of the Year: Art Sathoff Prof. Behrens English Dr. Hamilton English ACADEMICS FACULTY The Foreign Language Department offers students tremendous experiences, while incorporating sound language skills. Last year was the first time the department had an internship program. Many students are involved in terms and years spent abroad all over the world, including France, West Germany, and Mexico. Students learn about different cultures through these experiences, and this often gives them a new perspective on world affairs. The department also sponsors a house, Sheehan House, for students who are majoring, minoring, or interested in any of the foreign languages. Students live and work together, sharing experiences and helping each other get ready for life abroad, or readjust to life after being abroad. Studying a foreign language increases the awareness of not only the language learned, but English as well. In addition, students become more aware of world events and are more prepared to handle a number of diverse situations. Senior of the Year: Bruce Hanson, French Brenda Ockler, German Victoria Swinney, Spanish Prof. Losch German Dr. Allen German , Spanish Dr. McCluney 72 ACADEMICS FACULTY Dr. Schuessler History Prof. Jacobsen History HISTORY The History Department encourages its students to use the knowledge of past events, in order to understand the events of the present. A history major gives students a wide variety of career options and a solid liberal arts background as a foundation. Students are asked to keep an open mind and use what they learn in practical ways. The courses offered give students a chance to apply factual information in everyday life. Situations offering students a chance to ask and answer questions, lets students apply their knowledge. By having faculty who push their students to do their best, the History Department turns out students who have knowledge and are able to use it to the fullest. Senior of the Year: James W. Lynes Prof. LIndell History ACADEMICS FACULTY The Physical Education department has seen many changes this year with the completion of a new weight room and wrestling room. Both new facilities have been widely used since opening, and have been greatly enjoyed by the students and faculty alike. The RE. Department offers courses in two main areas of study; one is a preprofessional program that prepares students to coach, the other involves courses which are neede to fulfill general education requirements for the college. The department not only teaches its students how to be effective teachers, but coaching and planning skills are also worked into the program. Students are involved in decision regarding intramurals, and help in scheduling practice games, as well as actual games. This practical experience is invaluable to a beginning teacher. Activity is also important, and it is involved in nearly all courses. Participation is stressed and the idea that knowing how to do something is just as important as being able to do it, make the department a standout in the field. Prof. Canfleld prof.

Waltmann Matfiematlcs Computer Science Wartburg ' s mathematics program offers students four different majors: mathematics, computer science, computer information systems, and pre-engineering. Each area is continually up-dated, to stay with the changing trends in the field. The computer science major involves a solid program of courses utilizing languages such as Pascal, Cobol, Basic, and Assembler. The computers used for these courses include the Vax 11 750, Macintosh, Apple lie, Apple llplus, and IBM pc compatible. Because this is such an expanding field, new technology is a primary focus for this department. The department also stresses practical skills. Course formats are very structured, giving students the experience of working under deadlines. A large number of students decide to qo on to graduate school, and career opportunities such as teaching, engineering, actuarial science, and soft ware engineering await students with these majors. Senior of the Year: Joyce Jordan Senior of the Year: Brian Issacs Dr. A. Waltmann Mathematics Dr. Fenneman Mathematics Dr. Olson Computer Science Mathematics 75 ACADEMICS FACULTY Ml The Music Music Therapy Department offers students a chance to use their talents in practical ways. This year, students were allowed to teach community members piano and voice for a profit, after having taken the required courses and obtaining the professor ' s approval. With a large faculty, students receive a great deal of individualized attention through lessons and in class settings. Individualism is stressed, yet there is also a strong sense of the Wartburg community in each ot the groups. Nearly one-fourth of the total student body is somehow involved with the Music Department at Wartburg. Groups such as band, choir and orchestra, plus specialized groups, offer music majors and non-music majors a chance to express themselves. Technology has also been seen in the music world, especially with the advancement of compact discs, as well as computers used in situations such as ear training. Music therapy students are also involved in programs that not only challenge their ability, but also seem to reinforce their desire to work in that profession. Many students find that expressing themselves in music is an enjoyable and worthwhile experience.

Schmidt Music Prof. Heine Music 76 ACADEMICS FACULTY Prof. Wade ACADEMICS FACULTY Prof. Prahl Philosophy The Philosophy Department has been under close scrutiny this y ear. Questions regarding the courses offered and the role it should play were constantly being addressed. The lower level courses, such as Intro to Philosophy, usually involve large numbers of students. However, the upper level courses contain smaller class size, allowing for increased class participation. The students who graduate with a degree in philosophy are prepared to go on to a number of different positions. Graduate school, teaching, journalism, and law are all areas where the practical, analytical and objective aspects of philosophy can be applied. The reflection of concepts and ideologies are useful in all aspects of life. 78 ACADEMICS FACULTY SOCIA Prof. Starr Social work The Social Work Department provides a challenging curriculum to its students. By having the oldest undergraduate social work program in Iowa, it provides a strong group of alumni to draw on for experience. Each of the courses offered must conform to standards of the national arm of the Council and Social Work Institution. During May term and the last term of the senior year, students participate in field experiences.This allows them to get involved with the situations they will someday deal with in practice. This gives students an opportunity to see what the field is like and provides a broad orientation to the field as a whole. A large variety of positions can be applied for upon graduation. Senior of the Year: Rachel Hanson Prof. Vallem Social work 79 The Psychology, Sociology, and Political Science Departments offer students a curriculum where dual emphasis is placed on learning and people. The focus on teaching students to help people is one reason for the success of these departments. Another reason is that the courses and experiences are constantly being worked on and updated, allowing students information regarding the new technologies or theories in these fields. The Psychology Department prepares students for careers in counseling, teaching, personnel work, research, and clinical practice. A sociology major prepares for careers in law enforcement, probation work, parole supervision, legal aid, urban planning, international advocacy, and health care delivery. The political science major has career opportunities in areas such as public administration, law or law enforcement, teaching, or civil service. The social science courses prepare students to think critically and carefully analyze situations. Students also become more proficient communicators through class presentations and research projects. The class size is small, promoting individual discussions and increased understanding of today ' s problems.

Wartburg students and faculty got firsthand experience with the campaign trail, as several of the candidates chose to speak here. The first to arrive was Vice President George Bush, who tossed the coin at the Wartburg-Upper Iowa football game, His presence on campus was preceded by a week of close scrutiny of the campus grounds and dorms, with security men swarming the campus. PRESIDENT Congressman Jack Kemp, vying for the Republican presidential nomination, visited Wartburg also. Speaking to a large audience in Buhr Lounge, he encouraged growth as the precondition to solving the world ' s problems. 88 Democratic candidate Bruce Babbitt was very straightforward about his plans for the future. Interspersed in his speech were jokes about the caf food, and the other candidates, but he was very serious about where he stood. Democratic hopeful Paul Simon arrived in Waverly on the eve of a blustery snowstorm, an hour later than planned. Simon ' s support group of more than 60 students was excited to have him there, and signs filled Buhr Lounge for his address. The Rev. Jesse Jackson was scheduled to be at Wartburg, but due to problems he felt needed his attention, was unable to make it. Jackson ran for the Democratic nomination. The opportunity that students had to hear these candidates in person was an educational benefit that Wartburg offered beyond the classroom. Those who attended became more aware of the political system in the U.S., and were able to make decisions wisely. Winter Term Enrollment Highest in 15 Years After a low Fall enrollment, Winter term was considerably higher than in other years. The retention rate from Fall to Winter term this year was 91.3 percent, three percent higher than last year. According to Provost Ed Welch, enrollment always goes down from Fall to Winter, but this was counteracted by the high retention rate. It ' s not realistic to believe that retention can be 100 percent, Welch said. But it is realistic to believe that retention should be in the 90 ' s. Total student enrollment during Winter term was 1,258, the highest since 1973. WARTBURG REMEMBER- . ■ Homecoming 1987 a success The theme Re-U-Knight was a success, with more than 75 Wartburg students, working on 10 different committees to make It one of the best homecomings in years. Homecoming week started on Oct. 20, with the convocation in Knights Gymnasium. Here the students were introduced to the Homecoming King and Queen candidates and got a chance to meet the members of the football team. The traditional pep rally and games were held on Oct. 23. Skits and cheers by students and faculty members preceded the games. All fall sports teams were represented in a number of relay races. The student variety show, Kastle Kapers, was held on Friday night, with the king and queen being crowned between the two performances. This years King and Queen were Mark Kauffman and Joan Busch. On Saturday, the parade. Renaissance Faire, and football kept all students and alumni busy. Homecoming week officially ended on Sunday with the worship service in Neumann Auditorium. 90 Outfly earns mixed reviews Early on Sept. 21 , students were surprised to awane to cries of Outfly instead of their alarm clocks. Unsuspecting students gathered at the victory bell to be greeted by President Vogel and KWWL anchorman Ron Steele. After a snake dance down Bremer Avenue, the freshmen were dubbed as Knights and Outfly was proclaimed. Outfly events were planned primarily by the Student Activites Committee(SAC). The structure of the day was changed because of increasing problems in the past few years. Not all students were happy with the new Outfly. Many students had studied late and were too tired to participate. Another complaint was that there were too few activities and n ot enough prizes. And for some, the fun of previous years was having the power to call it. I was glad to see students participate, said senior Michelle Vandekieft. But it just wasn ' t as fun as it used to be when the students were the ones who decided when Outfly would be called. Treptow wins Senior award DeAnn Treptow of Maynard is the recipient of the sixth annual senior Honor Award for the 1 987-88 academic school year. The Senior Honor Award is selected by a vote of the seior class and faculty department chairs from a nomination list of six candidates. The list was compiled by a committee of three students and three faculty members. Other candidates for the award were Lynn Geick, Rodney Hank, Joan Busch, Karen Thalacker, and Marlys Thomas. The nominees must rank in the upper 15 percent of their graduating class, have demonstrated leadership in campus organizations and made a contribution to the college, both on and off campus.

According to Alumni Director Jan Striepe, 123 mennbers of the 260-member class have made two-year pledges totaling more than $6,000. Minimum amount for an endowed scholarship is $10,000. One of the most exciting aspects of this project is that seniors are asking how to be part of it and stopping by the Alumni Office to make their pledges, said Striepe. The really important benefit, however, is that alumni who have a financial investment in the college will be the most interested alums. It reinforces the biblical statement, Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. When funded, the scholarship will be awarded annually to a senior student whose grade point average has improved since the freshman year and who is actively involved in extracurricular activities. When an endowed scholarship fund reaches $1,000, interest earnings are applied toward the growth of the scholarship. When the fund reaches the $10,000 level, interest earnings are used to fund an annual scholarship. 123 Sports are a significant part of life for many Wartburg students. For fans as well as athletes, it unites tiie campus as one. Though no championships were won, the Year of the Knight undoubtedly holds memories for us all. Memories not soon to be forgotten. 125 MEN ' S CROSS COUNTRY SON If H P ' ' ' ' What looked like a mediocre season on paper was actually an exceptional men ' s cross country season for Wartburg. We attained the goals we tried to reach, he said. We placed fourth last year in the conference, so we really wanted to place higher this fall, but realistically we did the best we could. Our fi nal goal was to place in the top six in the regional meet and we peaked at just the right time for that. The Knights ran in the shadow of Luther, Loras and Simpson — all Iowa Conference powers, for the entire season and finished the 1987 campaign in one of the toughest regionals in the country. But a fourth place finish as conference and sixth at regionals made for a satisfying season, according to Coach John Kurtt. Wartburg finished fourth in the IIAC,, trailing the Norse, Duhawks, and Redmen. The Knights were also sixth at the regional meet. The highest team finish for Wartburg was a runner-up showing in the 16-team St. Olaf Invitational. They were third at both the Cornell Ram Run and Wartburg Invitational. Individually the season was dominated by two familiar names and a new kid on the block. Junior Kori Stoffregen was voted Most Valuable Runner and he earned an all conference ranking by placing sixth in the league meet. Other top performances turned in by Stoffregen were placing tenth at the Cornell Ram Run and fifth at the St. Olaf Invitational. Senior Dave Smith finished an outstanding career with top 10 finishes in A freshman surprise for the Knights was Brad Thompson, who placed as high as 14th in the conference meet and 17th in the Cornell Ram Run. Brad Thompson had a very good freshman year, Kurtt said. We could also always count on Dave Smith to be in every race and we got great leadership all year from Smith and senior Monte Bowden. Four seniors finished their running careers in 1987, including Smith, Bowden, Jeff Beergeson and Kent Kleckner. It was a good season and all of our 18 runners finished the year injury-free, Kurtt said. I was happy that everyone participated and stayed with it. Kurtt was satisfied with the season and called the year a success, but he felt his harriers were hampered by a lack of team depth. For Wartburg to break into the top three of the league, the Knights need more runners, Kurtt said. Luther won both the Iowa Conference meet and the NCAA Division III Midwest Regional. On your mark, get set go!... Wartburg runners are off to a good start. 126 MEN ' S CROSS COUNTRY Junior Kori Stoffregen edges past a Cornell runner.

Senior Dave Smith strides it out alone. 127 WOMEN ' S CROSS COUNTRY 128 WOMEN ' S CROSS COUNTRY Senior Lori Stumme keeps pace with the front runner. One word described the 1987 women ' s cross country team — inexperienced. The Knights lost three letterwinners from the season before, but replaced those spots with five freshmen. The inexperienced frosh comprised half of the 10-member squad, making the accomplishments of the team impressive. Wartburg ' s higest finish for the season was a runner-up showing at the Coe Invitational, but Coach Liz Wuertz felt her harriers ran their best at the Wartburg meet(the knights placed sixth in a much larger field). We had a good season, good running weather and consistent performances and improvement, Wuertz said, in terms of who we lost last season, I was pleased with how we ran. The lost one senior to graduation, sophomore Jody Kahn did not compete in 1988 and senior bandy Kline, a reliable runner in the past, spent the fall term at Wartburg West. Sophomore Angle Pitz was named Most Valuable Runner and she was the number one for the Knights most of the season. She finished fourth in the Coe Invitational and tenth in the Cornell Invitational. Shelly Parker, freshmen, turned in an outstanding rookie season and placed in the top 10 in two meets. She was fifth in the Coe Invitational and ninth at the State College meet. Senior Teresa Cordes was also eighth at the Coe Invitational. Parker was named Most Improved Runner and senior Lori Stumme was honored as the Most Spirited Knight. We are in a building phase in our program right now, Wuertz said. It is crucial that we get more good recruits in the future and that we keep the fine group of freshmen out for cross country. Wartburg ' s top five runners most of the year were Pitz, Parker, Cordes, Stumme and freshman Angle Heilmann. Wuertz would also like to see more competition within the Iowa Conference. Wartburg finished fifth in the league in 1987, but only five schools have complete squads. Upper Iowa, Dubuque, William Penn and Buena Vista do not field complete teams. Other top team finishes for Wartburg included two-third place showings — the St. Olaf Invitational and the State College meet. I was really pleased with our performance this year, Wuertz said. I thought our team held up well even with our inexperience. 129 FOOTBALL IFS gQUAD It was a season of its for Wartburg ' s 6-4 football team. The Knights finished the season with a winning record after going 5-5 the year before. Wartburg owned a 4-4 record, good enough for a fourth place tie with Dubuque, with Central winning the crown. But only 34 points prevented the four defeats from being victories. As we look back on the season it is easy to say, ' if we could change one play we could have had wins over Luther, Buena Vista, Upper Iowa and even Cen- tral ' , said Coach Don Canfield. But if you ' if, you have to do it both ways, and you take away a play from our games, we could have lost to Loras, Simpson, Dubuque and William Penn. In other words, the conference was extremely balanced this fall. It was a roller coaster year for the Knights, who opened with three encour- aging victories before losing to then-IIAC leader Luther, 13-9, after taking a 9-0 lead and havina two scoring opportunities stall late in the game. WartDurg tnen came back to defeat an improved Simpson team and the 1987 surprise, Dubuque. The Spartans had defeated both Central and Luther. But the next three games would be Knight nightmares. Wartburg dropped a 19-7 decision to Central on Homecoming, a 23-13 decision to Buena Vista in a game that featured six Wartburg turn- overs, and then were defeated by Upper Iowa, 14-6. Yet the Knights still managed to finish the season on an upswing by downing William Penn, 17-0, in the season finale. The reason we did that wall is because our players had a good under- standing of what determines whether you win or lose football games, Canfield said. Wartburg had 11 more takeaways than its opponents in the turnover depart- ment, and featured one of the finest kicking games in recent history. Senior fullback Paul Secrist finished ninth in the country with a 26.6-yard average on 18 kickoff returns and one touchdown. Junior Dave Wilt tied for the league lead with a 37.6-yard punting average, and freshman Eric Wessels was the confer- ence ' s seventh-leading scorer, making 10 of 12 PATs and seven field goals. Junior flanker Brian Bowman also broke his own season punt return record by returning 39 for 290 yards and a touchdown. The Knights had the eighth-rated team offensively and defensively in the confer- ence. They finished the year fourth in offensive scocing and sixth in defensive scoring. Wartburg got kickoff returns of 4 and 85 yards from Secrist, a 79-yard return from senior running back Brad Ott, an 82- yard punt return from Bowman, and a 45- yard interception return from senior safety Kurt Boerm. Ott increased his all-time Wartburg scoring lead to 248 points with 56 points in 1987. He also led the Knights in rush- ing with 832 yards and eight touchdowns. Ott threw for 430 yards to lead all Knight passers. Bowman had a team-high 20 catches for 465 yards and five touchdowns. Junior Kurt Luhring and Boerm tied for the team lead with five interceptions, while junior Chad Hake led the team with 168 tackles. Ott and Boerm were named to the Iowa Conference first team, while Hake and Senior Walt Vering were listed as second team performers. Hake was a linebacker and Vering played offensive tackle. Team awards went to Ott (Most Valu- able Player), Secrist (Koob-Lynes Award), Wessels (Most Valuable Freshman), and senior Dave Caster (Oil Can Award). Boerm was named as an Academic All-District performer and Academic All- American.

Powerful Central won the two-day meet with an impressive 685 team score. Loras placed second with 707 and Concord ia-Moorhead (MN) was third with 725. Freshmen Stephanie Reinert and Jennifer Sterk led the Knights with scores of 175. Freshman Karia Seaton shot a 187 and junior Brenda Hove added 193 for a team score of 728. The Knights finished third in the Iowa Conference behind Central and Loras. Coach Buzz Levick was happy with his team ' s final standing. It was a good season considering the number of young golfers we had playing on the Varsity squad, he said. Reinert and Sterk led the Knights throughout the season with average scores of 84, and both qualified for the National Golf Association Division III Women ' s Golf Tournament in Dubuque this spring. Sterk, the only one able to attend the tournament (Reinert plays Softball for the Knights), placed 22, with scores of 93, 92, and 92 for the three days of play. Competition was tough, Sterk commented. We competed with people from North Carolina and Florida who play year-round, she said. With such a young team the Knights bst no players to graduation, but Levick said his squad needs two more good players in order to challenge Conference leader Central next year.

Feet leave the ground during an away soccer match. 134 SOCCER BAsqN f 9k IP- Senior Brian Issacs sprints down the field to make a play. After starting the season with a 2-2 record, the Wartburg soccer squad dropped nine of its last 10 games to finish with a disappointing 3-11 overall record. The season was tabbed a disappoint- ment because the Knights were coming off a 5-5-2 season in 1986 and were returning experienced leaders in seniors Will Safris, Brian Isaacs and Dave Peterman. But when Safris, the team ' s leading scorer each of his three previous seasons, went down with a broken arm in the second game of the season, the future didn ' t look so bright. It was really a tough season for us, Coach Ed Knupp said. We started out all right, but then we lost Will and it was tough to score the rest of the year. When Will was lost we lost a lot of offense as well as much-needed leadership. Isaacs tried to make up for his team- mates ' loss by scoring four goals and three assists for 11 points to lead the Knights. Sophomore Mike Langston added four goals and two assists for ten points and freshman Samuel Baffoe booted three goals and three assists for nine points. Sophomore Jeff Ditto also scored three goals and had an assist for seven points. I thought our guys hung together all year, played hard and had good attitudes, Knupp said. We knew it was going to be a tough year anyway because we had such a tough schedule. The Wartburg foes proved to be as tough on the field as they looked on paper. The Knights were outscored, 52- 17, on the year, and their opponents man- aged 259 shots on goal compared to just 91 by Wartburg. The man in charge of battling the bar- rage of foreign soccer balls was Knight sophomore goalie Tim Forrester. For- rester started 13 games and saved 136 shots while allowing 49 goals. He even held Faith Baptist scoreless for the lone Wartburg shutout in 1987. Another factor that hampered the Knights in the fall was the reduction in players from the beginning to the end of the season. Twenty-eight players were on the preseason roster, but only 18 finished the campaign. That meant the few experienced players remaining were forced to play a great deal on offense, leaving them susceptible to injury and fatigue. Knupp complimented Isaacs, Baffoe and Forrester for having outstanding seasons. Isaacs was elected Most Valu- able Player for the year.

It was definitely a season of firsts for the Lady Knights. Senior Sara Greenough was the first Wartburg tennis player ever to win an Iowa Conference crown (she placed first in second flight singles), and junior Heather Henschel finished the season with a 9-0 singles record, good enough for a regional rating of 13th, the first tennis ranking ever for a Knight netter. When you have a winning season, there isn ' t much to complain about, Coach Gayle Stensland said. This wasn ' t our best season as a team, but we really had some outstanding individual perfor- mances. Any hopes of a team championship vanished at midseason, when senior Marti Koch went down with an injury. She had a 5-5 overall record at the time, but her presence in the lineup would have moved both Henschel and Greenough down a flight, making the Knights even FIRSTS more competitive as a squad. Marti ' s injury was just about devas- tating, Stensland said. There was no way to substitute and no way to recover from her loss from a team perspective. We just tried to regroup with what we had left. Henschel was the leading player record-wise at 13-3, followed by Green- ough (the team ' s Most Valuable Player), with an 11-4 mark. Sophomore Sally Reckhemmer and senior Bonnie Nieder- meier both finished with 10-10 records while sophomore Jennie Spain ended the year 5-0. All five of those Knights owned winning singles records, along with Koch. Wartburg registered team shutout vic- tories against Buena Vista, Luther, Upper Iowa and Dubuque, placing fourth in the conference tournament with 42 points. Luther won the title with 88 points. We had to deal with some problems last year, but I thought we took some negative situations and made them positive, Stensland said. Overall I was pleased with our progress and leadership throughout the year.

All Vaughan accomplished in her first season was to post the best season record ever in Knight history. Leading Wartburg to a 26-11 overall mark, 13-3 in the Iowa Conference. The loop record was enough for a second-place tie with Central. Simpson won the league with a 15-1 record. First we had an excellent base of four seniors (DeAnn Helgeland, Kris Kuper, Sue Trunck and Kris O ' Hare); second, we were coming off a strong finish from the year before (Wartburg ended 20-16 overall in 1986); and third, we added Annie Harris as an assistant coach, said Vaughan. Kuper led the Knights by breaking two school records and was named to the Iowa Conference first team. She was an all-tournament selection at the Rockford and Simpson tournaments and was an Academic District 7 Ail- American. Her records were best attack percentage for a season with .355, and she had 59 solo blocks to break that record. Helgeland claimed three records when she had 238 kills, 753 attack attempts and 350 digs for the year. The ' team established new overall records with 1 ,057 kills, 3,234 attack attempts, 1 60 solo blocks and 1 , 681 digs. Junior Beth Warner led the team with 49 block assists and sophomore Yvette Cook led all Knights with 48 service aces. Warner was placed on the Iowa Conference second unit. This was a close-knit group of young ladies who shared a common concern of winning the conference, Vaughan said. There was a little disappointment at the end of the year when we didn ' t win the championship, but we realized that our destinit was in our own hands. Yet 1987 was still a gratifying season for the Knights, who improved upon last year ' s 7-9 league record. Wartburg also won the Rockford tournament and had a 13 match winning streak that extended from Sept. 30 to Oct. 20. End of the season team honors went to Kuper (MVP); Helgeland (Best Offensive Player); junior LeAnn Wagner (Best Defensive Player); Warner (l ost Inspirational); freshman Jean Wollersheim (Most Improved); and sophomore Jody Bergan (Junior Varsity MVP). Two Wartburg defenders successfully block the oncoming shot. 138 Seniors Kris Kuyper and Sue Trunck team up to make the block.

The Knights began league play with a 6-1 record, but then lost seven of their remaining nine games to finish 8-8 in the loop play, 15-11 overall. There were four weeks in a row where we had three games a week, and once we got in the first week of February our guys were physically tired, Coach Buzz Levick said. Now we are seeing more basketball players in the weight room because they seemed to be disappointed by the month of February, too. Levick added that the Wartburg fade in February was uncharacteristic for a school that traditionally finishes the season strong. The 15-11 season was also seen as a disappointment after Wartburg ' s success nationally last year. The Knights advanced to the final eight in the NCAA tournament in 1987 and most experts predicted an experienced Wartburg team to return. But only senior Casey Cason and junior Mike Murphy were returning starters, and senior Art Sathoff went down with a serious knee injury for the second year in a row. A lot of people were under the influence that we were a veteran team, but we weren ' t, Levick said. If we would have had Art, I don ' t think we would have lost more than two conference games. He would have put his name in the record books as one of our best players ever, both as a scorer and rebounder. Murphy led the team with a 17.2 scoring average in 26 games, followed by sophomore Chris Huecksteadt with a 14.2 average. Senior Mark Rolinger was the team leader with 166 rebounds and junior Terry Ira pulled down 161. Cason had the top field goal percentage among the regulars, 58.9 (73 of 124), while Hueksteadt was the most accurate from the line, 87 percent (60 of 69). Huecksteadt was the Knights ' most prolific three-point shooter, making 40 of 85 for a 47.1 percent. Richie Williamson, junior, was the most accurate from that range, making 27 of 55 for 49.1 percent. Cason was the assist and steal leader with 143 and 62 respectively. The 143 assists in a season is a school record, breaking his old mark of 125 set last year. He also is the career assist leader with 300. Ira led the team with 42 blocked shots. Murphy was the only Knight honored in the post-season. He was named to the MAC first team for the second season in a row.

Wartburg ' s 9-7 conference record and third place finish in the Iowa Conference was the highest the Knights have ever stood at the end of a loop season. Wartburg also won more games in a season (12-13 overall) since the 1983- 84 team posted a 14-10 record. But more importantly, the Knight program went from being a pretender to being a contender. After finishing with identical 6-18 marks the last two years (last in the league), Wartburg finally put together a stellar season behind most valuable player junior Kathy Smith, and senior Janae Bravard. Smith was named to the First Team all conference, and Bravard, who was the teams leading scorer with a 17.7 average, was a second team IIAC selection. I thought we would be much more improved over last season because we had some experience returning, Coach Kathy Meyer-Thomas said. Janae really came together as a complete player and Kathy had a great season. Smith led the club in rebounding with an 8.9 average, while junior Beth Warner was second with 7.2 and Bravard third with 6.2. Smith finished the season ranked sixth in the nation in field goal percentage, shooting 57.0 (172 of 302), and she led the IIAC with a 54.6 average (113 of 207). Sophomore Krismar Anderson was the Knights ' top free throw shooter, ' converting on 80.7 percent (46 of 57). She also led in assists with 78. Helgeland led the team with 37 steals, while Bravard was the top shot blocker with 16. Six school records fell during the season, four by the team and two by individuals. Team records included best field goal percentage for the season, 43.6; most team free throws, 306; best free throw percentage, 65.5; and most blocked shots, 57. Individual records were Smith ' s field goal percentage and 193 field goals by Bravard for the year. Our kids practiced hard in the off season and worked to keep a top division finish in their sights, Meyer- Thomas said. This was really a great season. Senior Janae Bravard fires one off for two points. 142 I WOMEN ' S BASKETBALL Sophomore Kathy Smith has an easy two points as her defender attempts to block.

The Knights had two Ail-American wrestlers, thanks to the grappling heroics of juniors Jack Denholm (seventh at 177 pounds) and Dean Gavin (seventh at 190 pounds). Junior Jeff Voss (167 pounds) qualified for nationals but was unable to compete because of a leg injury. That is the first time since 1978 that Wartburg has had two national place-winners in the same season. It was also a successful year from a team perspective. The Knights finished the season ranked 12th in the country with a 10-3 dual record. Wartburg also won the Coe Quadrangular, the prestigious All-Lutheran Tournament and placed second in the Iowa Conference meet, as well as its own meet, to Buena Vista. We were very pleased with the year in a general sense, Coach Dick Walker said. I certainly felt we lived up to what my expectations were for this team. Walker also received the Iowa Conference Coach of the Year award, voted on by his peers. Gavin and voss tied for most individual wins with 31, while Denholm won 30 matches, senior Walt Vering had 28 victories, junior Ben Hupke had 24 wins, and junior Jan Kahler won 20 times. Denholm was the only Knight conference champion, while Voss and Gavin took home runner-up honors. Vering was selected as honorary captain and Voss won an extremely close vote for the team ' s most valuable wrestler. Wartburg finished 38th in the national meet, scoring eight and a half points. I thought we had the potential to do well this year, Walker said. I would have been disappointed if we didn ' t have some success this past winter.

She said seniors Teresa Cordes, Marsha Huisman, Sandy Kline, and Lori Stumme will be sorely missed for their contributions. I was very pleased with the season we had. We were in the running to win every meet we competed in, and that gave us confidence heading into the conference tournament, Wuertz said. Then to finish third in the league race, a notch above last year, was very satisfying. The Knights compiled 93 1 2 points to trail only Simpson, who had 162 points, and Central, who had 119. 64 of our points came from running events, and Marsha played a part in 26 of those points, Wuertz said. I don ' t remember having someone so versatile, who could run so many events and place in all of them. Huisman competed in five running events as well as the high jump at conference and received the Most Valuable Player award due to her efforts in the events. She was third in the 200 meter run with a time of 25:98, fourth in the 100 meter dash with a time of 12:60, and fifth in the 400 meter dash, clocking in at 1 :03.45. Huisman also ran two relays for the Knights. The 4 X 100 relay team, also composed of freshmen Sue Chapman, Kim Folkerts, and Angie Heilmann, were conference champions by posting a 50:66 time. Huisman, Chapman, Kline, and Stumme were third in the 1600 meter relay with a time of 4:11.08. Huisman ' s high jump mark was 5-3 4. The high jump winner was Cordes. Her effort of 5-6 allowed her to tie the conference record, achieved by Becky Sullivan of Wartburg in 1984. Her mark qualified her for nationals. Cordes also placed third for the Knights in the women ' s javelin with a throw of 115-8 3 4. Other top finishes from the senior standouts were Kline ' s third and fifth place efforts in the 800 and 1500 meter runs, respectively, as well as a fourth- place finish from Stumme in the women ' s 400 meter hurdles. But the seniors didn ' t quite make a clean sweep of the honors. Sophomore Angie Pitz won the 300 meter run with a time of 10:51.92 and also captured first in the 5000 meter run by clocking in at 19:23.73. Junior Margaret Janssen was second in the shot put with a toss of 38-8. Junior Amy Powell was fifth in the triple jump and junior Lisa Ness placed fifth in the 400 meter hurdles. Wuertz said these athletes and the talented crop of freshmen in the program should keep Wartburg competitive in women ' s track next year. But I ' ll miss the seniors, no question about that, Wuertz said. They were very dedicated and worked hard to become the best they could be. 146 WOMEN ' S TRACK Stride it out...sophomore Jill Baumgartner strides 147 5 ' 1 I guess I ' m ready, before a track meet. . says senior Craig Sesker Some key injuries were responsible for a disappointing showing in the Iowa Conference by the Wartburg men ' s track team. Seniors Tim Schuring and Craig Sesker, along with junior Tony Harris and freshman Tom Cooper, were unable to perform for the Knights because of health reasons. Senior Bob Brockney was also unable to compete because of a CPA exam. I figure that we lost around 44 points due to the lack of having these five guys in our line-up, Head Coach Bob O ' Brien said. O ' Brien said he believes his team was capable of finishing ahead of Luther. As it turned out, Loras finished first with 188 points, and Simpson came in second with 166 1 2 points. After that came Central with 89, Luther with 65, Buena Vista with 53, and Wartburg with 16 1 2. Junior Kori Stoffregen, named Most Valuable Player for the season, was the only double placewinner for the Knights at conference. Stoffregen finished fifth in the 1500 meter run with a time of 4:10.34 and sixth in the 5000 meter run, clocking in at 15:52.31. Two Wartburg athletes were able to flnisfi among the leaders in the high jump. Freshman David Miller was third with a jump of 6-6, and freshman Terry Allen tied for sixth with a mark of 6-2 1 4. High jump is definitely one of the strengths of our team, O ' Brien said. Russ Roquet [a sophomore] also did a fine job for us at the high jump all year. He was disappointed that he didnl place at conference. The remaining placewinners for the Knights were senior David Smith and freshman Eric Sacia. Smith finished fifth in the 10,000 meter run by posting a time of 33:44.95. Sacia ' s effort of 41-5 in the triple jump was good for fifth place. Eric ' s mark shows how far our program has come, O ' Brien said. Last year we didn ' t really have a triple jumper, but thanks to Greg Mason [an assistant coach] we are now competitive in this event. Although the Knights didn ' t fare well at conference, the year was filled with a number of bright spots. I judge the success of our program by personal records, said O ' Brien. This year Brockney was able to break his own record in the 110 meter high 148 MEN ' S TRACK Just a nose...a Wartburg runner is just edged out in a meet held at the Wartburg Fieldhouse. hurdles, and [senior Monte] Bowden ' s 10:09 effort this year in the steeplechase was his best ever. Other highlights of the year, according to O ' Brien, were provided by Miller and sophomore Bob Howie. Miller was able to jump 6-8 in some of Wartburg ' s outdoor meets, a mark that would have tied him for first in the conference. Howie broke a 15 year old record in the 800 meter run by posting a time of 1:50.68. O ' Brien said he was also pleased with the efforts of freshman hurdler Mike Bachus, named top newcomer of the year. Junior Bill Schwint was honored as most-improved performer on the squad. With determination on his face, senior Bob Brockney clears another hurdle. 149 MEN ' S GOLF EVER Experience and youth came together to make this year ' s varsity golf team one of the best that Buzz Levick has ever coached. The Knights placed fourth in the Iowa Conference, with two golfers in the top Iff I f— x ni— n — Ai r- i i r r T— r four at the conference meet April 29-30, YOUTH + EXPERIENCE = SUCCESS in cedar Fans. Freshman Todd Reinhardt placed third overall, carding a two - day total of 1 50 at the par 72 Senior Brad Ott takes time to aim up his putt. 150 MEN ' S GOLF Pheasant Ridge Golf Course. Senio r Brad Ott placed fourth with 152. Capturing the title was Central, with a team score of 589. Loras and Upper Iowa tied for second at 620, followed by Wartburg at 621. Unfortunately, we did not play our best on the first day, said Levick. The next day we played very well, but we still finished two strokes out of second place. That was probably the biggest disappointment of the season. Other scores for Wartburg include freshman Mark Olenius ' 162, sophomore Troy Schwemm ' s 164, and senior Mike Flynn ' s 159. According to Levick, Reinhardt and Olenius played up to their expectations, and Ott, who was named Most Valuable Player, had another banner year. Reinhardt, who had the lowest scoring average, was honored as Most Promising Player. Honored as Most Improved was Schwemm. We had more veteran players than in the past years and it was a fairly young team, added Levick. As for future years, it looks optimistic. There is a solid nucleus returning, and with a bit more consistency, who knows. 4 Senior Mike Flynn keeps his eye on the ball while he tees off. 151 MEN ' S TENNIS A beautiful swing...sophomore Bob Koch executes a perfect shot during a match at Byrnes Park. 152 1 MEN ' S TENNIS F PLACE TENNIS TOPS LAST YEAR SCOREBOARD WARTBURG OPPONENT 7 Buena Vista 2 3 UNI 3 Incarnate Word 6 0 St. Edward ' s University 9 0 Schreiner 9 0 Texas Lutheran 9 0 Drake 9 0 Grinnell 9 6 Upper Iowa 3 0 Luther 9 4 Loras 5 7 Northwestern 2 2 UNI 7 7 Dubuque 2 Cornell Invitational Wartburg Invitational 4 Upper Iowa 5 2 Loras 7 8 Dubuque 1 4th Iowa Conference Tournament After finishing fifth in the Iowa Conference last year, the Wartburg men ' s tennis team this reason compiled a 7-16 overall record and finished fourth at the conference meet May 6 and 7. I went into the season thinking we had a better team than last year, Coach Bob Starr said. I came out feeling the same way. The netters opened the season defeating Buena Vista, 7-2, before losing to the University of Northern lowa,6-3. They then made their way to San Antonio, TX, where they lost to Incarnate Word, Austin, TX; St. Edwards University, Kerrville, TX; Schreiner; Seguin; and Texas Lutheran. The Texas tour is certainly something we ' d like to make annual, Starr said. The trip, along with a fall scrimmage, helped us prepare for the tonger, tougher schedule Senior Steve McGrew, second at number four in the conference and the only loss the team will suffer, received the Most Valuable Player award, tallying an individual record of 18-8 overall, and a 12-3 in the conference. According to Starr this was by far the best record on the team. The number three doubles team of McGrew and junior Kirk Sampson grabbed fifth in the conference. Other Knights finishing in the top five were: sophomore Ross Huffman, at number six singles (second), sophomore Jon Stadtmueller at number two (fourth), sophomore Pat Weber at number three (fourth), sophomore Jon Black at number five (fifth), and the number two doubles team of Weber and junior Randy Ditch (fourth). We really have a young team, Starr said. The players we have now, along with some good recruits, may challenge for number two in the conference next year, possibly even number one. 153 SOFTBALL SEASON HI SOFTBALL TEAM MAKES WAVES IN CONFERENCE A sweep of Central on May 6 wasnt quite enough to give Wartburg a share of the Iowa Conference Softball title, but it did allow them to finish 11-5 in loop play, the best mark in Knight softball history. The Knights, whose overall record of 20-14 was also a historic best, tied Central for third-place, just one game behind Luther and Simpson. Head coach Janet Vaughan was upbeat about the year. I was very happy with the season, Vaughan said. Our hitting improved, which was a tremendous lift. Our pitchers also had a good season. We were in almost every game we played this year. The improved hitting by the Knights was evident statistically. In league play, Wartburg trailed only Simpson in hitting. The Lady Redmen had a .307 average, while the Knights had a .280 average. William Penn was a distant third at .249. Some individual Knight performers were among the league leaders in hitting. Freshman Laura Olson was fifth with a .400 average, and senior Amy Lammers placed eighth with a .383 mark. Lammers and senior Kris Kuper gained All-Conference honors. Lammers was a first-team selection at designated hitter, and Kuper was chosen as a second-team catcher. For the year, Lammers battled .309 and compiled 14 RBI ' s, eight doubles, and a triple. Kuper led the team In runs scored with 22 and drove in 12 runs. Vaughan noted that Kuper will be missed for more than her hitting ability. Her ability to work with pitchers from a mechanic ' s standpoint will be missed, Vaughan said. She can usually tell if one of our pitchers is struggling with her motion. The Knight pitchers fared well, according to Vaughan. Freshman Shon Cook went 7-5. Junior Janette Jurgensen was 13-9 for the year and was named Most Valuable Player on the squad. She gave up just 127 hits in 144 innings pitched, for an ERA of 1.07. Jurgensen, who struck out 3.2 batters a game, gave up just 10 extra base hits, Vaughan said. Jurgensen also showed that she could hit the ball by having a good year at the plate. She drove in 13 runs, had four doubles, and also managed a home run. It was Olson ' s home run that Vaughan remembers best, however. Olson ' s roundtripper in the bottom of the seventh [ with runners on first and third, and Wartburg trailing 3-2 in game two) gave Wartburg its sweep over the Lady Dutch with a 5-3 victory. The Central wins were two of our best efforts of the year, Vaughan said. It was the first time that a team swept Central in a doubleheader in three years. Vaughan said that a doubleheader win over Simpson and a second-place finish in the Mount Mercy tournament were also highlights of the season. Some disappointments were a split with Buena Vista and a twinbill loss to William Penn. In the future we need to learn how to rise above our competition, Vaughan said. We are capable of it as evidenced by the fact that we went 5-1 against the top teams [Luther, Simpson, and Central] in the League.

Actually, once they returned home from their trip to Texas, they played better than .500 baseball. Finishing third in the Iowa Conference with an 11-6 record, the Knights definitely ruined Simpson ' s plans for the season. Heady to win their second consecutive IIAC title, the Redmen only needed to sweep the Knights during the last weekend of play. But their plans were erased when Wartburg won the opener 7-5. Wartburg hit .302 for the season as a team and had five regulars and three reserves at .300 or better. All American first baseman, senior Chris Cartee again led the Knights with .484. This marked the third year of his four-year career with the Knights in doing so. He hit .321 his freshman year, .518 as a sophomore and was second on the squad last year with a .389. His career average is .436. As for Cartee, everybody talks about his hitting, Coach John Kurtt said. But he is such a complete ballplayer. He only made three errors at first base this year on 228 chances, and we ' ll miss his baseball knowledge and ability to play the complete game. However, it was senior catcher Stuart Fritz who supplied the power. He hit .380 with 20 extra base hits among his 38 total hits, including nine doubles, one triple, and 10 homeruns for a slugging percentage of .790. He also led the Knights with 41 RBIs. Other regulars were second base freshman Mike Horsfield with .383, centerfielder pitcher freshman Eric Wessels at .363, and senior rightfielder Brett Wall at .343. Brett Wall had one of his better hitting years this year despite his bad knees, said Kurtt. Fritz has been our catcher for four years. The Knights were also strong as a running team, stealing 80 bases as compared to their opponents ' 30. Wessels was the individual leader with 1 7 in 18 attempts. The pitching staff, though young, shows promise for the future. It was led by Wessels, who finished the season with a 3-2 record and a 3.61 ERA, and sophomore Kent Walvatne was 5-1 , with a 3.71 ERA, primarily in relief. We knew our pitchers were going to be young and mostly inexperienced, Kurtt said. But our pitching improved throughout the year. We had difficulty in sustaining our control from one game to the next, and I think that came from a lack of experience. Cartee was named first team All IIAC selection and Fritz was a second team pick. While the Knights lost a strong senior core this year, there are many seasoned veterans and younger talents returning that Kurtt should have plenty of talent for years to come. 157 The end is come. 1987-88 has been an eventful year-filled with fun memories for all. Wartburg has become a home away from home for both students and faculty, and saying good-bye will never be easy. But good-byes are not forever, and we will return to this home many times. To relive those memories that were made here, and to create new ones. This truly will be remembered as The Year of the Knight. 1 987-88 ALVIN AILEY REPERTORY DANCE ENSEMBLE A component of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre Foundation, the ensemble offers unique experiences for artists in ail areas of dance.

That Time of year when Wartburg seems more like a daycare center than a college campus. Planned activities for the morning (Classes) Free time after lunch Dinneror nap time Planned activities for the evening (Parties) Afternoons generally meant doing something outside, as a tan becomes a necessity during May Term. This may include golfing, biking, playing sand volleyball, or even just laying out. Whatever your choice for afternoon recreation. May Term ' 88 delivered plenty of sun and warm weather. There were, of course, those couple days of snow, but that was soon forgotten when the warm weather returned. But through it all, Wartburg students were determined to make this the best May Term ever. Freshman Angle Freerks enjoys the day on her bike.

This year was another year of games-everything from ice cream eating contests, to balloon shaving, to foot races. Students had a chance to be Involved in fun competition with their friends, many of whom we may not see for a while. Outfly, no matter when it is, is always a lot of fun!

Class of 1988 Senior Picture This poem was written and read by Linda Moeiier thie nig fit of thie Senior Pig Roast. It ' s a time of farewells for the Class of ' 88. We hope your time at Wartburg has really been great. You ' ve seen lots of changes in your four years here, from Old Main ' s renovation to new policies on beer. A new dorm has opened and a weight room addition has put the student body in better condition. Though he ' s moved off the campus, President Vogel can still keep an eye on the students from his house on the hill. And after the workmen are finished next fall, you ' ll probably not recognize third floor Luther Hall. Outfly survived and a new tradition grew. Instead of just drinking, the campus played Clue. In this year of Iowa ' s political caucus, we saw most every candidate, including Mike Dukakis. Security was tight on the day George Bush came, to toss up the coin for the Upper Iowa game. In addition to politics, students made pleas, for a greater commitment to the humanities. And the Bathroom Press probed the great mystery of the missing $90 from the cafeteria fee. What students can forget all the times that they ' ve munched, on the famed deli sandwich or the Wartburg sack lunch? But now replacing the issue of cafeteria cuisine is whether the dorms need a condom machine. Dr. Don King has already stuck out his neck, suggesting abstinence as the best form of safe sex. We appreciate your work on our Phonorama shifts, from now on it ' s you we ' ll be asking for gifts. While all of the rest of us tend to get weepy, graduation ' s biggest smile is on the face on Jan Striepe. She knows that when Homecoming time next comes, she can welcome you back as Wartburg alums. 174 Asplund, Geralci(FR) - 117 Aswegan, Lynn Atkinson, Penny(SR) - 94 Azbell, Katherine(FR) LjC Abdul Jalil, Abdullah(SR) Abley, ChristinG(SR) Ackarman, Brenda(SR) - 13,35.42.94 Acker.

One of those was an Inspiration to be the best you could be. As editors of the 1987-88 Fortress, we dedicate this book to her, In loving memory of a woman who will always be remembered and loved by us all. MY MARION She was as soft as a light leaf blowing in the warm fall breeze. Her colors were vibrant and many. She stood out on the tree. She had so much to offer: love time encouragement herself On December eighth, the season changed. A cool breeze loosened her ties to the tree. She floated off of her branch, making sweet somersaults as she drifted to the ground. The breeze blew her in a pile among others who were colorless. Some of her colors floated upward to the heavens on a feathery cloud; while some of them, she left for us. I cradled what she left on the earth and took her home — I had a special place for her. I smoothed her out, gave her a kiss, and placed her securely in my writing journal in between my entries on Sylvia Plath and Memories. Cindy Grothe 191
