They certainly require different elements to achieve it and surely have different rates of Success in their’ pursuit of it. Therefore, it is conceivable that some people find college helpful in their pursuit of happiness. After all, college is replete with a great many elements related to happiness. Realizing that the relationships that give happiness are complex, the college can provide no simple formula for producing happiness. However, the college can suggest that one take courses in happiness. Which courses are the courses in happiness? Again, that varies with each student. For example, observation tells us that not everyone who is happy is smiling or laughing; not everyone who is unhappy is crying or scowling. Ultimately, it matters less what one takes in college than the amount of positive energy one puts into it. The result usually has been a transformation. . . a revitalization. . .a positive sense of happiness. This Historical Record of the 1985-86 school year reflects the college community's pursuit of happiness. Both the formal and informal curriculum was filled with courses that brought happiness to various elements of the college community. May this pictorial review of West Virginia State College's constant and dynamic quest for happiness in 1985-86 be a course in happiness Lorayveu.

Ferrell Building Welcome Introduction of Speaker President, West Virginia State College Musical Selection—Etude in A-flat Major, op. 25 1 Mark Alexander. Pianist Convocation Address President, College Entrance Board lma Mater by Rachel Campbell-Muhammazd, editor “‘WWVSC students are part of the pri- vileged citizens of the world,’’ ac- cording to George H. Hanford, presi- dent of the College Entrance Board. Hanford was the guest speaker at the fall convocation held in Ferrell Audi- torium on Sept. 18. Hanford’s topic was the relevance of higher education in the world today. As he put it, ‘‘Education is man’s best hope for peace in the world.”’ He talked of his travels and how seeing familiar p roblems in unfamiliar settings has helped him grapple with the problems surrounding education in America. ‘Urbanization is not peculiarly an American problem.’’ He cited as an example, that Bangkok and Singapore are facing similar problems in making educational changes that will reflect the changing lifestyle of the country. Hanford perceives the world as be- coming more integrated. ‘‘Isolationism does not make sense. There is a growing interdependence between the nation’s of the world. We must strike a balance between the first, second and third worlds, so they will eventually become one,” he said. Thomas W. Cole, Jr. Fo Chopin George H. Hanford, president of College Entrance Board. FA Se George II. Hantord Hanford said that the world is on the brink of nuclear holocaust, and that man is destroying his environment, committing in effect ecological suicide. Discussing world hunger, Hanford said that 35,000 children die every day from hunger. He then asked what quality of life could they expect if they lived? ‘‘Hdunger is one problem among many that must be solved to guarantee the lives of millions. ‘If the world’s problems were simple we'd have solved them. ”’ He maintained that a balance could be found, but that solu- tions will require the best minds man has to offer. ‘‘Minds are bettered by edu- cation, especially higher edu- cation. There is an explicit re- cognition of the need for higher education.’ In his address Hanford com- mented on the responsibilities inherent in higher education. ‘Students are citizens of the world,’’ he said. ‘“‘The world’s population is approximately 4.6 billion. Fifty million are getting a college education, that is about 1 per- cent. The responsibility is awesome in terms of the world’s problems,’’ he added. ‘This may sound like high- flown rhetoric, but it isn’t. Our nation has been able to grow because of its investment in education.”’ Hanford said that it was up to students, those blessed by the opportunity of higher educa- tion, and those in following generations, to make a success of the world.

Direcror’s Note Fool For Love is the second Sam Shepard play produced here at West Virginia State College. The first, Buired Child was presented in 1980, one year after it won the Pulitzer Prize for drama. Like Buried Child, WVSC’s production of Fool For Love is a West Virginia premiere. In the past five years, Shepard has taken his place at the forefront of American dramatists. His plays are being produced by regional theatres all over the country. (Fool For Love will be presented by over 20 theatres throughout the U.S. this season.) Shepard's play, True West was recently filmed (starring John Malkovich) and shown on the Public Broadcasting System. During September of this year, there were five Shepard plays in production off-Broadway in New York City, including Fool For Love. which ran for two years and won an Obie award for Best Play. The New York Daily News called it “Sam Shepard's purest and most beautiful play.” The New Yorker magazine called it, “. . . mysterious and unsettling . . . and as funny as anything he has ever done.” Fool For Love is currently being made into a full length feature film, starring Shepard and Kim Bassinger, directed by Robert Altman. Although theatre buffs have long regarded Shepard as America’s finest playwright, he has now achieved star status as a film actor. Since his first screen appearance in Days of Heaven, Shepard has garnered critical acclaim for his performances in Resurrection, Raggedy Man, Frances, and Country and earned an Oscar nomination for his portrayal of West Virginia native Chuck Yaeger in The Right Stuff. Shepard’s plays are not realistic in a conventional sense. As critic Ross Wetzsteon describes, “time is immediate rather than sequential, narrative is a matter of consciousness rather than behavior, and character is spontaneous rather than coherent.” Using rock and roll street language (Shepard used to be a drummer for the Holy Modal Rounders, which toured the U.S. along with the Rolling Stones in the 60's) and emotionally vivid images, Shepard consistently manages to create powerful theatrical masterpieces. Fool For Love is the first play in which Shepard examines the sexual and emotional connection between men and women. It is a violent play; a world of ruthless futility, claustrophobia, confinement and sexual destiny. We're pleased to present the West Virginia premiere of Fool For Love.

Florentine Blue Thunder, also a= member ot the Rosebud Sioux Tribe, discussed the Psychology of Herbal Medicine, at a science Seminar in the Science Auditorium. The belief in the healing properties of herbs has been in Blue Thunder's family for generations. He believes that the ground of Mother Earth can nourish human beings by the herbs she grows just as the breast of Mothers can nurish her infant by the milk she produces. Today, in modern medicine, little natural medicine is used, When Florentine teaches at St. Francis Indian School, he integrates his Dakota culture with the social sciences. He focuses on how the course of man relates to the stars, plants and animals. Additionally, Blue Thunder teaches English as a second language to his students who speak the Sioux language at home. When he teaches addition and subtraction, he uses sticks in Indian games. : Blue Thunder has’ been actively involved in his community for years. Last year he was chairman of his conmunity-similar to a mayor in our culture. He continues to be active in their Indian Club. For five years, Florentine has participated in the yearly Sun Dance. The Sun Dance, held in late August, begins at sunrise and ends at sundown, and lasts four days. During these four days, the participants pray continually, maintaing contact with Tunkasila, our equivalent to god, trying to purify themselves mentally, physically, spiritually and socially, says Blue Thunder. Sun Dances are similar to our Christian Lent, Blue Thunder also dances and Sings at the Pow Wows, which are social gatherings to honor someone on thcir birthday, anniversary, for the birth of a baby, or at rallies. At age 26, Blue Thunder attributes his interest in herbal medicine to his grandmother, Kate Fast Dog and his grandfather, Dave Blue Thunder, who was a medicine man for 30 years. 20thc Lifestyles and Problems Debussy, Introduction of Speaker.......Professor Douglas Miller raditional Indian scenes by artist Ward Church- ill, on exhibit at West Virginia State College, in- clude the buffalo dancers at left, a tepee, above, a chief- tain on horseback, at right, and a child in tribal costume, below left.

The series was held during the month of November on campus. Florentine Blue Thunder opened the program with a talk on herbal medicine and its psychology on Nov. 7, fol- lowed by a discussion by Professor Beatrice Medicine on ‘‘Indian Women: A per- spective.”’ On Nov. 14 a film screening was held, and a concert, with Indian music and dance, featur- ing Kevin Locke, Patricia Lock’s son, was held on Nov. 18 in the Fine Arts Building. During her talk on ‘‘Indian Culture and Education’’ Locke said that the great diversity among Indian people, with over 500 tribes in the United States, explains the many different as- pects of the culture. The Indian life style is based on a non-hierarchial social structure, Locke explained. Their basic values are generos- ity, Compassion, bravery and respect for the elders. She compared this to what she con- sidered the three basic charac- teristics or goals of Americans: individualism, greed and materialism.

According to Locke, the biggest obstacles between white and Indian relations is the differences of the cultures, and the tragic history betwee them. Indians have their own heroes, Locke said, and some legendary Americans are not considered heroes by Native Americans. ‘President Abraham Lincoln is thought of in completely negative terms because of his bad attitude towards Indians,”’ she said. She mentioned the 32 Indians hanged during his presidency. Locke said that Indians can- not be considered in the same category as other minorities because of the many peace and land treaties signed between the federal government and the Indians. This in spite of the fact that the Federal government has broken every treaty it ever negotiated with the Indians. The treaty reads. .. ‘‘as long as the grass shall grow and the rivers flow, the government must abide by these treaties to provide health, education and social services to the Indians,’’ Locke said.

Ferrell Building Set ina Harlem nightclub of the 1930's and 40's, Ain’t Misbehavin’ celebrates the music, personality, and high-living style of one of that era’s most beloved jazzmen and clowns, Thomas “Fats” Waller Fats Waller: My dad, Thomas Waller, was born in Greenwich Village in 1904, and reared in Harlem. His parents were deeply religious; to his father, jazz was the devil's music. Dad studied classical piano and played church organ. He began his professional career as organist at the Lincoln Theatre on 135th Street. In 1920, he met this mentor, the great stride pianist James P. Johnson, and soon became a prized attraction at Harlem rent parties, and one of the most respected musicians in New York. With the success of his songs for the musicals Keep Shufflin’ and Hot Chocolates, and a Victor recording contract, the stage was set for Fats Waller. A man of gargantuan appetites, dad's overindulgence in food, liquor and loving is a legend. He never slowed down through all the years of one-night stands, big-time radio, triumphant concert tours of Europe and Hollywood films. He died aboard the Santa Fe Chief near Kansas City in 1943. Dad raised the art of stride piano to its highest level, and was one of the inventors of swing music. He was a prolific com- poser, a great comedian and a brilliant singer and musician—talents which made him one of the first black superstars in America.

The play is set in the small town of Tuna, Texas. It involves 18 characters and centers around the murder of the town's judge. It's a satire on bigotry and prejudice. It's irreverent humor, that's what it is, said Sterling Spangler, an acting student at West Virginia State College who directed the play. = Melody Ison’ played Bertha Bumiller, a 50-ish housewife, who's not very smart. She wants to get dangerous books that are harming the minds of the young, off the shelves of the library. To her those books include Roots, because it shows. only one side of the slavery issue, and Romeo and Juliet, because itis about teen-agers having sex and who don't respect their elders. Bertha Bumiller has her share of problems. She has_ three children, one who has spent a number of years in reform school, and a husband who runs around on her. At one point, a _= reporter from New York interviews Mrs. Bumiller. During the interview, she tells him about her book-banning efforts. When she tells him about her objections to Romeo and Juliet, he says, But don't you know that's Shakespeare? She says, Didn't he write 'Barefoot in the Park'? The reporter tells her he writes for Intellect magazine and she says, Intellect? Well, we don't have that in Tuna.” That line may well have been the crux of the show. ¢ A Standing: Melody Ison | seated: Billy Breed Gaenies Chamberlain Melody Ison Cathryn Townsend Judy Carney 33 35 ee EINE ng a I py ae RO ae a I NS me ee EE OO a Ed 4, ne ee ee hi k 4 i F ib 36 Headquarters: Charleston House Holiday 600 Kanawha Blvd. E., 344-4092.

THERE GOES AN Students return from model UN conference inspired by Chuck Smith, news editor Enthusiastic State College students returned from a model United Nations conference at Jackson’s Mill, W. Va., with a desire to start an international affairs club on campus. Ten students represented State at the two-day meeting sponsored by West Virginia University, Nov. 15-16. Students from seven colleges around the state were formed into delegations representing various coun- tries at two model Security Councils. .Four issues were brought before the ‘councils: international drug traffic, the Green Peace affair, terrorism, and Cen- tral America. Ten students from State made up four of the delegations. State students who attended the conference were primarily from the International Rela- tions class. The students represented the U.S.S.R., China and Madagascar in one of the Security Councils, and the United States in the other.

The Student Government Associa- tion provided funds for the trip. Dr. Gerry Beller, assistant professor of political science, served as advisor to the group. ‘The students expressed a good deal of enthusiasm, prepared well, and did a good job,’’ Beller said. “| felt we were pretty well pre- pared,’’ said Robert Stephens, senior, Woodbridge, Va. ‘“‘Our biggest problem was we didn’t know what to expect.

Now a faculty member at his alma mater, he first conceived the idea for the 12-ton concrete and aluminum piece while on a_ sabbatical about three years ago. The name is 'La Vista' he said. That's Spanish, or French, for The Vision. ' . There's a need for Vision LOr dreams in the midst of everything. Art can't be all negative. We have to give a certain amount of hope. His piece has three 22-foot high Parts, each with a concrete base with three steps and a _ four-foot aluminum circular disk at the top. Everything is in threes, Smith explained. Each step is a decade. Putometnemparts,==eparticularly. =the disks at the top, symbolize more than just three decades of racial integration, he said. I think we've moved beyond that, Smith said. Society is also moving toward complete integration of women and the elderly, he said, adding, CWemestilleehave al bit syet to. do.’ That continued developing of both individuals and society is symbolized by the incomplete aluminum disks on the sculpture. In each, about two-thirds of the circle is complete, with the remaining one-third slightly offset - as if they are in the process of being completed. 49 Be EN SN AS er Oe TE Es age wWvVSC ROTC STARE AE OO A at LTC Que Stephens LTC Theodore Dunigan CPT Burnes Starks CPT Randall Lemon During the year, Shawn P.

Blood drive syphens 99 pints by Teresa Morris, copy editor They were dressed as a vampire, the hunchback of Notre Dame, and a Crayola crayon, and they took blood from anyone who volunteered a vein. The Red Cross, aided by ROTC and State student volunteers, spon- sored its bi-annual blood drive Oct. 31 at Wilson Student Union Main Lounge. Barbara Vannoy, a Red Cross re- presentative, stated that 99 pints | were donated, which is about aver- age for West Virginia State College.

Of the 99 pints donated, 52 were from the ROTC. : Linda Lee Stahlman, college librarian, Completed her second gallon of blood donated. She said she decided to give blood years ago when she was too young to donate to a cousin in n eed of a transfusion. Organizers of the blood drive, Sgt 1st Class Otis Pittman and Cadet Capt.

ANCELLA R, BICKLEY @ CITIZEN CONCERNED ABOUT PEOPLE, WHO HAS A LONG HISTORY OF EFFECTING SOME PROGRESS IN -THE HUMAN CONDITION WEST VIRGINIA STATE COLLEGE MAY 8, 1986 By Maureen Crockett FOR METRO WEST “This is a three hankie affair,” said the guest of honor, Dr. Ancel- la R. Bickley, retiring as West Virginia State College’s vice pres- ident for academic affairs. staris another Having brought only one hankie, Bickley depended on family and friends, 137 of whom had gathered May 8 for a luncheon at WVSC’s Student union. “Portrait of a Lady” was the appropriate title for the celebra- tion, which included friends, com- munity and religious leaders, stu- dents, family, government digni- taries, faculty, emeritus faculty, and administrators from several colleges. Over the years, Bickley served WVSC as instructor, associate professor of English, Title III grant coordinator, vice president for administration, and f inally, as vice president for academic af- fairs. “I have always missed teach- ing,” she said. “The pace changes aS an administrator. You are locked to a desk all day. Faculty have time to prepare classes, stu- dy, and read.“ Helping students to learn has been important to her. A student at the luncheon mentioned that Bickley also helped people get loans so they could stay on at State. When there were no loans, the student added, the necessary money came from Bickley. College administration is a har- der job than teaching because good and iust decisions can stil] Cause unpieasant reactions. Add being black and feraale to the sit- uation. The job description then requires exorbitant amounts of patience, understanding, and grit. Bickley was sensitive to the dif- ferent ways blacks and whites, men and women, related to each other at work. She had to be aware of traditional behavior for black women and not fall into traps. She learned where to sit at a table and not to do automatical- ly all the nurturing behaviors, but it was hard. For example, “It is easier for me to sit at a typewriter and bat out my own ideas than to dictate,” she explained. What helped her through the tough times? The warm support of her husband, attorney Nelson Bickley, and an informal support group of women at the college. ‘Thank God for them! They helped me survive.” Bickley said another aid was a tradition at WVSC of women in unusual roles. Dr. Angie King had chaired the Chemistry Depart- ment, and Dr. Barbara Oden ran the Biology Department. “Women who had gone before acted as mentors for the young ones.” 147 148 Unfortunately, she has noticed some regression over the years. “As a black person today, I arn alarmed at the shrinking number of blacks, both students and facul- ty, in higher education. The people who are going to run the world will be the readers, the college educated.” Bickley’s tenure made a differ- ence at State. She worked hard to raise faculty standards, helped get the faculty senate and the com- munity college started, and now is taking early retirement. ‘‘My children are grown, I am in good health,, now I can plumb my own depths before my _ brain atrophies.”’ Just for fun, she plans to write some Harlequin-type romances for a black audience. “My daugh- ters and their college roommates will be my editorial board.” Bickley’s serious, long term goal is to search out black history in West Virginia, look for unpub- lished black literature, and then write and publish her findings. She has long had an interest in women’s rights also. ‘‘I think there were heroic black women here. I want to poke around in old West Virginia newspapers and. trunks in people’s attics.” She will look for history, and get oral his- tory from the old ones. “My grandfather was a slave in Virginia who settied here after the Civil War. He came across the mountains, following the railroad, looking for work.” He chose Hun- tington as a good place to raise his family; Bickley now wants to discover how her people’s history relates to Huntington’s as the years passed. To ease herself back into a re- gime of study, research, and scholarship, Bickley will spend the summer at the University of Cali- fornia at Berkeley taking a semi- nar on race and slavery as seen in American literature. “My first year will be a study- ing phase. I may teach black liter- ature at Parkersburg, where the first black school was.” Looking around the crowded ‘room, Bickley saw many friends from her days as a student at WVSC, Marshall University, and West Virginia University. There were young students and emeritus faculty. “Some of the happiest moments of my life were spent at this college,” she said. . She came to the campus for the first time as a freshman from Huntington, arriving on the train to a packed college. ‘The campus teemed with trailers and quonset huts. Each dorm room held five. students.” At the retirement luncheon, West Virginia first lady Shelley Moore, presented Bickley with the Distinguished West Virginian Award. She earned the award in non-academic ways also. Dr. Charles Daugherty spoke of Bick- | ley’s passion for justice and hu-— man rights. Dr. Thomas Cole, . president of WVSC and acting. chancellor of the state board of | t regents, noted, “She is the first al- | umnus and the first woman to be our chief academic officer.” MRS. GLADYS WALKER Mrs. Walker was employed from July eee OO feeetint: | December=. ol, 1985. She worked in the Chemistry Depart- ment and retired as Chemistry Equipment Attendant. MRS.

The dinner is a way of saying congratulations and good luck as students go forth as graduates of the institution and as practicing professionals—indeed as “West Virginia State College in Action.” Among the honored guests at the dinner are the commencement marshals. As faculty members who are graduates of the institution, they “escort” the commencement processional and, in so doing, help to induct the new graduates into the customs and traditions of the College.

McGee _ | Y McGee Urces WYSC Graducies To Put Forth “That Exira Effort 3y MONICA OROSZ )f The Daily Mail Staff Going for “the little extra bit of shocolate” in life can make the differ- ence in being ordi- nary and being something special, the president and publisher of the Daily Mail was to tell 295 graduating seniors of West Vir- 4 ginia State College today. ; “When your spir- it came into being on the planet Earth, there was only one chance in 100 that you would be an American college graduate,” said John McGee in an adv- ance text of his commencement ad- dress. “You are way ahead of the pack. That is a burden, that is a responsibili- ty, that is a challenge, that is an excit- ing Opportunity, and that is a mind- boggling, demanding, lovely opvortuni- ty,” he said West Virginia State’s 91st comm- encement began at 10 a.m. at Ferrell Hall at the Institute campus McGee was to tell the graduating seniors that they should use their al- ready favorable circumstances to help make civilization better. To illustrate his point. McGee re- Jates a story of a young boy and choco- Charleston Daily Gail SA SAT.. MAY 17. 1986 late candy: The boy waits all week for his allow- ance, planning to spend the money he earned doing chores on a little chozo- late candy boy at the candy store. On Saturday morning, the little boy rusl.es down to the store and asks the waitrvss for the candy. Not thinking, she reacl.- es into the store window and picks up 4 little candy girl instead. The boy tells her he wants the candy boy, not the candy girl. The waitress tells him there isn't much difference, but the little boy tells her there is a lit- tle more chocolate in the candy boy. “In most instances. it can be that lit- tle extra bit of chocolate that will make the difference between you and those that are around and about you,” the text of the speech reads. The little extra bit helped Ferdinand to win the Kentucky Derby, McGee says. “.,. It is that little extra effort that tips the scale so often. It is what makes a person a leader. It is what gives the artist the flair. It is what gives certain ministers great command of the word that can hold you spell- bound. It is what made Ernest Heming- way the magnificent writer he was.” McGee holds a bachelor's degree in business and political science from Davidson College. He joined the Daily Mail after working for newspapers in South Carolina and Florida. He 1s also president of Clay Communications Inc. McGee is past director of the South- ern Newspaper Publishers Association and a member of the advisory board of the West Virginia School of Journal- ism. He is currently a member of the executive committee of the Associated Press and is past president of the West Virginia Press Association.
