The expansive faculty consisted of four teachers, all anxious to begin putting the thirty-two students through their paces. An imposing three story granite building that stood atop a hill in Northwest Worcester comprised the campus. The structure was called Boynton Hall, named after John Boynton, the founder of the Institute. Boynton was a tinsmith and a peddler, well known throughout New England. What prompted him to make such a commitment of time and money to establish the Institute? John Boynton felt that in the increasingly industrial society which surrounded him, there was a pressing need to elevate the position of the farmer, mechanic and manufacturer. Hence, he offered a large portion of his personal fortune to finance the construction of a school that would teach local mechanics and manufacturers the state of the art in industry. The only stipulation was that the town of Worcester provide the land and necessary buildings. The citizens complied and in 1865 plans for such an institute began. Another prominent citizen was Ichabod Washburn, who had a dream of a different type of industrial school, one aimed at a practical education. When he heard of the newly proposed school, he too acted upon his dream and provided the resources necessary 4 • Opening WPI • • • for a manufacturing shop (later known as the Washburn shops) to be built directly behind Boynton Hall. One hundred and nineteen years later, much has changed. The first things that come to mind are the obvious ones such as the school name, the addition of numerous facilities, and the curriculum. But a more fundamental evolution has taken place in the form of the Plan and all that it represents. While Washburn envisioned a practical education and Boynton wished to elevate the position of the working man, the Plan achieves both of these goals. The practical education is a unique combination of projects and classwork, resulting in greater levels of competency. Potential for attaining Boynton ' s concept of advancing the role of the engineer in society is subsequently increased. What is WPI? It is the continuation of a legacy of ideas set forth by two industrial visionaries. John Boynton and Ichabod Washburn would be pleased to see how far their Worcester County Free Institute of Industrial science has come. It is their spirit of progress that constantly propels Worcester Polytechnic Institute onward to new, loftier goals. A Closer Look 6 • Opening liS!!! !!i 2 p i:S SBi SS! !issr!ii IK ' ■tT fj H 1 1 5 1 h ' 1 1 r� V ' j|ri;I jp1 B r BwB HHcScf. rm ’ HH i«f| v;� f i; n m - jk 1 Bl T4I 1 €Ul; New Sights Everyone has experienced the familiar view of Earle Bridge and the stony facade of Boynton Hall looming up behind it. The eye sweeps to the left, looking over the low arc of shrubs at Stratton Hall with its duo of WPI police cruisers parked out front. It is the fact that a person can become acclimated to the campus soon after arriving here as a freshman which gives it some of its appeal. By the time senior year rolls around, it is like an old acquaintance, and one becomes aware of its constant metamorphosis. In recent years, with the renovations of Atwater-Kent and Washburn, the student body has enjoyed better facilities and suffered through higher tuitions than ever before. The benefits have been many, ranging from the computer aided design lab to scanning electron microscopes, to the implementation of word processing equipment at WACCC. A major attraction of WPI continues to be its small size. With approximately six hundred students in each class, the academic ratio is very condusive to greater accessability to both professors and facilities. With state of the art equipment, higher level classes in all disciplines can now offer actual hands-on experience with technical procedures that might otherwise be unattainable. So with steady progress, WPI is not only upgrading equipment, but educational standards as well. One point of controversy, however, is the continuing movement to alter the elements of the Plan. Complaints center on whether such changes might defeat the intent of the Plan in the first place, which is to provide the student with an unprecedented freedom to choose his curriculum and foster an atmosphere of true learning. Such debates are vitally important to the evolution of the school and should continue. Indeed, the dynamic nature of the WPI community is what, in the end, shapes the destiny of the Institute. 8 • Opening 10 • Opening Opening • 11 14 • Opening Opening • 15 % ruv t C • ' • ' 5 • C t f t % «tW -i • ' ■.J r C T -- ' “ f T«. •• 4 y� v ' V- ndU . ««« ‘r COVp ,y “ ‘ ' acko, «CABo f i..

As the WPI student enters into his senior year, he realizes that the fun is almost over and it is going to be time to go to work. The search for a job begins in our Office of Graduate and Career Plans, OGCP. The painstaking process starts with the compilation of a resume. At this time the average tech student has to dig down deep to produce a resume that makes him sound wonderful. He may have signed up for the yearbook staff at one time, but never attended a meeting; this still qualifies him to list yearbook staff as one of his activities. Then the student must learn to utilize his preference cards. Depending on his major, this can be an easy or a difficult task. If he is an EE he will be able to throw a number seven card and get an interview. Whereas if a Chem Eng wants any chance at interviewing he has to throw his number one card. But there also is the case when a company that every senior wants to work for comes recruiting. All students must learn that he cannot throw a number seven card for this company. After finally landing and having that all important interview, all interviewies can do is pray that the interviewer liked them. But with the help of Dean Willie Trask and Alice Walker, most of WPI graduates do have something to do when they finally get out of here!! Opening • 17 WHAT A HASSLE!!! At the beginning of every term the tech student can look forward to standing in this turmoil. Whether the student wants to rearrange his whole schedule or just pick up a gym course, he is forced to suffer through this exasperating ordeal. One of the most aggravating aspects of this process is when the student has been waiting in line for an hour, only to find that the course he wanted has already been filled. Then there is overload registration. The student who wishes to over register for an academic term must wait until the end of registration to pick the additional course. By this time, the desired course is filled. When C and D terms roll around, seniors wait until the last day of registration to drop all of their real courses and pick up Personal Finance and MG 1050. Behind the longest line you can be sure to find Dean Van A. Hunched over his books, this remarkable man creates the best possible schedules for the entire student body. i ■ Opening • 19 WHAT A RELIEF!!! Every Friday afternoon between the hours of 4:00 and 7:00, a large horde of students swarms into the pub to drown their sorrows of the week at the ever popular ' happy hour ' . Because happy hour is usually very crowded, it is the only time which the pub is restricted to those over twenty. This gives the underclassmen the opportunity to test their crafty techniques for sneaking in. They will borrow an upperclassman ' s ID or slither in through the back door pretending to come from the ladies room. Then when they are in, they do their best to avoid Glenn. Thus begins the weekend stupor which some never seem to recover from until late Sunday. All in all, happy is a time when both teacher and student mingle freely and wash down their woes during a truly important social custom — drinking ... Mike Strzepa, Editor Working in the Information Mine The computer center is a hallmark of our technological society. Within its walls, quietly humming, are some of the foremost creations of our technology. And we have just such a facility on the WPI campus, the Worcester Area College Computation Center, affectionately known as WACCC (rhymes with back). For a hallmark of civilization, a lot of primal screaming goes on at WACCC. As I write this, I have been working at WACCC for almost two years. It ' s a neat place to work. The people are easy to work for, the machines are not that terrible to endure (usually), and it beats flinging dishes around at DAKA. The people come and go, the faces change, even the machinery changes every so often. Only the primal screams are a constant. People don ' t just cry out in anguish because they like it. There ' s a lot of emotion in the air at WACCC. A lot of dreams shatter and die in a cloud of random bits down there in the basement of the library. And though it is in the library, it is probably one of the noisiest places on campus. WACCC is like the rest of the campus — activity ebbs and flows with the academic demand. At the beginning of the term, the place is like a tomb. No one goes to 24 • Academics WACCC unless they have to or unless they have some bizarre keyboard fetish, and most of the keyboard fetishists have terminals at home. So no one is there. You sit behind the desk, watching the occasional user go by, discussing the nature of the universe with whoever you happen to be working with at the time. It ' s so quiet, you can go mad. The week goes on. People receive their assignments. Activity increases. The noise level goes up. Typically, you hear the rapping of keys under fingers until somewhere, amongst the bits and the wire and the chips, a mistake is made. Then the screaming starts. My program doesn ' t work! My data disappeared! My program disappeared! Aaaaaugh! Which is where people like me step in. The distraught user comes rushing to the desk, explains his problem, and we try to help. Sometimes we can help them, which is kind of satisfying. And sometimes we can ' t, which is kind of apocalyptic. Up and down, up and down, until the big rush at the end of the term. People who want to meet people should spend the last couple of nights of the term at WACCC. Almost everyone on campus is there at one point or another in the proceedings. It is a true sampling of the college experience. My fondest memories of working at WACCC are from the ends of terms. Such as B-Term my sophomore year, when at ten minutes to four on the last afternoon of the term, with many project reports primed and ready to be printed, the line printer decided that a small but crucial spring deserved a vacation. For a hallmark of civilization, a lot of primal screaming goes on at WACCC. ' Tm not going to tell them. (them being the vast quantity of people waiting for not-to-be printed project reports). The operator, then a diminutive young lady with a soft voice, also voiced this opinion. As did everyone else. The eventual solution was to lean out, shout out the bad news, and lock the door before they came over the counter. People are very sensitive about the computer. Just one thrill after another. And since computers are imperfect machines made by human beings, they fail occasionally, usually according to Murphy ' s Laws on technology. You can always tell when the Decsystem goes down. The air is filled with the noise of beeping terminals. The system obligingly tells everyone that it has stopped running. And the screaming begins again. That ' s life in the basement of the library though. Somehow, our lives at WPI are enriched even by wretched experiences like spending all night in WACCC, have the work of an entire term vaporize at a typing mistake, and all the other little catastrophes associated with WACCC. 1 ' ? Academics • 25 The Shortest Distance The shortest distance between two points, rumor has it, is a line. Lines. They seem to be a part of every day life. Though not always having the sheer magnitude of those that fill the sidewalks of, say, the Highland Street Renaissance celebration, the crowds of people that one might run into during the daily transpirations of acadamia here on the Hill still present quite a challenge to our continued sanity. There are the usual protracted queues, found usually during lunch or suppertime in the wedge, or on the third floor of Boynton Hall waiting to cash their checks on a Friday afternoon. When you are in a situation like that, it is of a scale that is meekly accepted. Okay, what ' s five minutes? I ' ll wait. And you do wait, and the line moves, and whatever it was that awaited you at the end is taken care of. Next on the scale of line-dom are those for films and such. They indicate that a hefty chunk of time will go by before progress occurs. It is here that the vestiges of crowd psychology sets in. Invariably, someone will walk up to the end of the formation, disbelief registering on his or her face. Thoughts race through the mind. Self-defensive mechanisms warning not to get hopes up too high set in. Whether you are in line to see the 9:30 showing of Risky Business or get tickets for Winter Weekend, it ' s difficult to argue with the voice that pipes in: I bet they ' ll sell out just as I step up to the window ... Social activities spawn lines because people are buying a luxury and they accept, to a certain extent, the risks involved. Sure time will be wasted standing around, but it is the individual ' s choice to be there. Therein lies the difference between the so-called social line and the much less palatable academic line. Four times per year (or sixteen times in the average college career) academic lines proliferate wildly. For the lucky ones who look down at their schedules with self-satisfied sneers, they may never have to endure the agony of the course change period, the long hours of standing in my square foot of allotted floor space, craning my neck to get an elusive glimpse of the middle chalkboard as Van-A changes the 199 to 200 for the personal finance class I had my heart set on. Nothing can compare to the exhilaration and subsequent despair of firmly pulling open the doors of Alden Hall as the morning sun streams in through the windows, thinking that somehow the crowd has been beaten and hearing my jaw thud dully on the floor as the image of mass humanity hits my eyes. Numbly, I enter the formation. All thoughts of seeing the morning sun again are forgotten. Minutes crawl by. An hour comes and goes. I ' ve moved three whole inches. A glance behind is rewarded with the small consolation that ten more have joined the row and will probably have a longer wait. Inevitably someone says Looks like we got here just in time ... Waiting lists can add an interesting element of suspense to the course change period. All that one needs is a little white slip of paper from scheduling saying you are in the class and all your problems are over. Without the slip of paper, however, you are subject to the twists and turns of probability. Hmmm . .. How many in front of me want to sign up for ES-2610? Three spots are left. Four people before me. The tension mounts as I creep closer. Finally, just as I am in grasping range of the table, the course is filled and I dejectedly register for a dismal second choice and wander back to check my mailbox for the fiftieth time in two days. In the end, lines can be cruel. How cruel? Cruel enough so that when my mailbox door opens with a faint click, a little white slip of paper becomes visible and I promply let my dismal second choice class card (which represented an entire morning in line) fall randomly earthward. Lines. They can bring you to the brink of insanity. Academics • 27 All Work and No Play ... Well, it ' s Friday afternoon, that migraine-inducing exam is finally over and you glance up at the clock. Aha! Four o ' clock! And like a lemming returning to the sea, you head towards the Pub. Others have joined in the migration as well, po uncing upon a chance to relax at the end of the week. That is really the key word: relax. In a place like this, it doesn ' t take too long to realize that one has to have an outlet, a way to wind down. Granted, each person has their own way to accomplish this, be it through intoxicants, or a Mahler Symphony. But when it comes down to the dirty, gritty world of academia, especially engineering, you have to work hard and, once in a while, play hard. Academics • 29 Hands on Experience! From Apples to Microscopes, Robots to voltmeters, oscilloscopes to spectrometers, the facilities of WPI meet the needs of the students and establish the schools reputation for excellence. Constant efforts to keep equipment up to date have been evident through the renovation of the Washburn Shops this year and of other facilities in years past. The facilities of WPl meet the needs of the students. Academics • 31 The Faces and the Surroundings The people who have been with us over the times of trials and tribulations are one of the main reasons why life here, when it is at it ' s most unbearable, is made not so unbearable. Not only fellow students, but other members of the WPI staff can make a difference. Academics is not only the pre-conceived notion of hitting the books. It is a concept that involves people, atmosphere, and encouragement, things which, when looked for in the proper places, could be found in abundance. Academics • 33 Burning the Midnight Oil Perhaps the most familiar sight in the four years spent here was that of ones desk, strewn with books, perhaps a calculator recharging on top of all those notes, the whole mess waiting for you to commence the legendary All-Nighter. The situations may have varied over the past few years, but the feeling about it never changed. There was a slight undertone of panic as one came to the full realization of what lay ahead. Sometimes it was an exam or report due the next day. Other times it was of a much more important nature. An MQP. An IQP or Sufficiency. Or the Comp. In the end, what was learned was the dangers of procrastination in the face of inevitable deadlines. Somehow things get done. They have to. 34 • Academics Academics • 35 Nancy Zimmerman, Editor 38 William Abbott Mechanical Engineering Paul Ahlijanian ' Chemical Engineering Deborah Allen Chemical Engineering Kimberly Allen Chemical Engineering Susan Ames Mechanical Engineering David Anderson Mechanical Engineering William Andrews Computer Science Douglas Anneser Electrical Engineering James Antosca Electrical Engineering Arpi Aprahamian Mechanical Engineering Edward Arcikowski Electrical Engineering Jacob Arends Electrical Engineering Kenneth Arruda Mechanical Engineering Desiree Awiszio Electrical Engineering Michael Atamian Chemistry Edward Austras Management Engineering Dennis Aves Electrical Engineering David Backer Electrical Engineering Carol Bagdis Electrical Engineering Robert Baker Electrical Engineering Craig Baptiste Mechanical Engineering Anvar Barake Mechanical Engineering 39 Terry Barber Chemical Engineering David Barlow Electrical Engineering Edwin Barron Mathematics James Barry Mechanical Engineering Mary Bartos Mechanical Engineering Robert Bates Civil Engineering Steven Baturin Computer Science Briand Beaudin Civil Engineering Julie Beberman Mechanical Engineering David Beck Mechanical Engineering Paul Becotte Mechanical Engineering Carl Benda Physics Joel Bernstein Management Maria Biascoechea Mechanical Engineering Richard Bibbins Management Engineering John Bibinski Mechanical Engineering Alan Bielawski Electrical En neering Samuel Bigelow Mechanical Engineering Daila Blaus Chemical Engineering James Bock Electrical Engineering Denise Bolduc Electrical Engineering 40 Eric Borgstedt Chemical Engineering David Boudreau Electrical Engineering Patrick Brady Mechanical Engineering Robert Bragdon Physics Jack Bravo Electrical Engineering Patricia Bray Computer Science John Breen Electrical Engineering Stephen Breininger Electrical Engineering Paul Bresten Electrical Engineering Michail Briere Electrical Engineering David Brin Mechanical Engineering Karen Brock Mechanical Engineering Harold Broker Electrical Engineering Robin Brown Electrical Engineering Paul Brozek Chemical Erwineering Raymond Buckly Chemical Engineering Michelle Bugbee Chemical Engineering Jeffery Bulette Civil Engineering 41 Robert Bunce Electrical En neering Jeffety DurdicK Mechanical Engineering Randy Burnham Mathematics Scott Burton Mechanical Engineering Arthur Butler Electrical Engineering James Cadman Computer Science Ronald Caldwell Mechanical En neering David Calhoun Management Engineering David Capotosto Management Richard Carlson Management John Carroll Mechanical Engineering John P.

The Lady Engineers equalled last year’s record setting pace by enjoying another 20 win season. An overall record of 20-5 was so outstanding that it led to a first appearance in the NCAA playoffs. However, these two outstanding feats could not equal the impressive and first ever victory over arch-rival Clark University. WPI proved to be a talented and overpowering squad as it rolled over a majority of its opponents. Two seven game winning streaks emphasized the team’s consistency. Leading the way this year for the Lady Engineers was the senior captain, Chiara Whalen. A four year starter, Chi was the backbone of WPFs successful basketball program. This talented senior scored 1376 points and pulled down 1153 rebounds during her WPI career. Chi’s overpowering performance made its mark in WPI’s record books because she is the only basketball player to score over 1,000 points and grab over 1,000 rebounds. Chi was the leading rebounder of this year’s team as she accumulated over 300 rebounds during the season. Chi’s rebounding efforts placed her eighth in the nation for division three schools in this category. Chiara was recognized for her outstanding play as she was chosen for the All-New England team, ECAC Allstar team, and the Kodak All-Regional team, giving her a nomination to the Kodak All-American team. Chi’s departure from the women’s basketball program will be hard to overcome, but the overall strength of this year’s team was found in the play of its underclassmen. Sophomore point guard, Cathy Murray, was the floor leader of a potent offensive attack. Cathy had over 180 assists and added over nine points per game. Another sophomore who played WE DID ITU Chi gives brief pointers to Donna Leonard. an important role in this year’s success, Kim Fay, provided deadly shooting accuracy and added a spark to the WPI offense. The tbam’s leading scorer, Kim, averaged 16 points per game. Her ability to score when the team needed it most, showed her intense play. A new addition to this year’s team was freshman forward, Cindy Perkins, who made her first year an impressive one by scoring over 12 points and hauling in 9 rebounds per game. These three players and sophomore starter Mara Catlin, will form a strong nucleus for next year’s team. WPI won twelve of its first fourteen games before losing a close game to a tough Colby team. The Lady Engineers then finished the season without a loss. Their most impressive victory came at the end of the season when WPI overpowered Clark University, 70-59. This Clark victory was a first in WPI women’s basketball history. These victories led to a NCAA tournament ber th. WPI’s first appearance in the NCAA’s was less impressive than the team had hoped, but their competition was outstanding. In the first round, WPI gave Salem State a close contest for three quarters, but eventually Salem pulled away to a 50-69 victory. WPI’s loss was eased as Salem State eventually went on to the final four and placed third in the nation. Overall, WPI had an impressive year which will be a goal that future teams will strive to equal. Coach Sue Chapman is looking forward to next year because all but one player will be returning. Coach Chapman feels that sophomore Donna Leonard will be able to handle the center position. Also returning next year will be Amy Swotinsky, Kathy O’Neill, Dara Morris, Eileen Ego, and Jackie Thibeault. These returning members will add depth to next year’s team. Sports • 71 Mur for 2!

Teamwork and Hustle Equal . . . or the first time since 1979, the Worcester Polytechnic Institute soccer team enjoyed a winning season, as the Engineers registered a 7-4-2 record in 1983. Among the seven victories were major wins over Coast Guard, Bowdoin, and Holy Cross. Head coach Alan King’s squad reverted to an old fashioned formula for success, team-work and hustle, with exceptional results. Soccer is a sport where statistics, such as goals and assists, do not tell the whole story about the contributions a player is making. Midfielders and defensemen certainly are not going to score many goals, as their responsibility is to prevent the attack of the opposition, while working the ball up to the forwards who are in the better position to put WPI on the scoreboard. This philosophy was the basis for the success of WPI’s team last year. Each player in their own position played with a tenacity and desire that is only seen in the eyes of winners. The WPI team exhibited a balanced attack as 15 players accumulated one or more points. The Most Valuable Player for the Engineers was second-team All-America defenseman Amaro Conclaves. Amaro played brilliant defense all season and even managed two goals and one assist. In addition to his All-America recognition, Amaro was named first-team All New England and was selected to WPI SOCCER (7-4-2) OPP 1 Bentley 0 1 Wesleyan 2 5 MIT 0 3 Coast Guard 2 1 U-Lowell 1 1 Trinity 1 6 Assumption 0 4 Nichols 0 1 Brandeis 2 2 Clark U. 4 1 Bowdoin 0 2 Holy Cross 1 0 Babson 2 Overtime Senior Marty Ferguson sacrifices himself.

Unfortunately for WPI opponents, the Engineers had another stellar performer at forward in sophomore Dave King. Dave booted in six goals and along with Amilcar gave opposition goalies nightmares they will long remember. Midfielders Carlo Gretter and Scott Cormier also had outstanding seasons roaming the middle for coach King. Carlo was named “Outstanding Midfielder” and added to his overall team play with three goals. The WPI defense was also in good hands, led my Amaro Goncalves — named “Outstanding Defenseman” — , senior Jerry St. Pierre, Scott Wyman, and Ben Paul, who kept the opposition away from the WPU goal and formed a solid unit in front of goalie Steve Ouellette. With victories over Bentley, MIT, Assumption, Nichols, in addition to the wins over Coach Guard, Bowdoin, and Holy Cross, WPI placed itself among the upper echelon in Division III New England soccer. Success was a team effort and players like seniors Ken Lindberg, Gazanfer, Namoglu, Marty Ferguson, and Tony Urrico; juniors Ben Paul, John Meehan, and Gil Benatar; sophomores Mike Scanlon, Mark Dillon, Jeff Leucke, and Gene Randecker; and freshman Alden Whitney all contributed to the Engineers’ season.

Undefeated T he November 13th headline in the Sunday Worcester Telegram told the story: “WPI Finishes Unbeaten and Untied”. The Engineers had traveled to New Jersey with the hopes of preserving a perfect season. They wasted no time achieving their goal as the powerful offense and stingy defense racked up a whopping victory with a 51-14 defeat of Fairleigh Dickinson University. The team returned to campus with the shocking realization that they had achieved a perfect season. Supported by the student body, faculty, administration, parents, and the city of Worcester, the Engineers choreographed outstanding performances throughout the Fall. The season of 1983 earned WPI football yet another worthy place in WPFs sports annals. Led by enthusiasm and leadership from co-captians Costa Evangelakos and Paul Becotte, along with ten other seniors, the team entered the 1983 campaign with a big question mark. Though a hard-working and dedicated team, nobody predicted the WPI as the team to beat or to perform like the gridiron machine they proved to be. 1983 was thought to be a rebuilding year due to the loss of several key seniors to graduation. Head coach Bob Weiss told the team that they were good, but he was not expecting an undefeated season. Coach Weiss and the team decided to take one game at a time which they did — eight times! The team cruised through their first two games beating Coast Guard (35-14) and Colby College (30-7). Lowell played the Engineers tough in the third game as WPI won 7-0. Next they beat Fordham (22-6) as eyes began to open. When the team beat Bates (10-7) to up their record to 5-0, their reputation began to travel through New England. The Engineer’s perennial rivalry was next in line as the engineers of RPI came into town. Their attempt to upset WPI was turned back with a 28-8 win by WPI. Playoff talk became common once the team crushed Hamilton (42-0) in the rain at New York. Next came the victory against Fairleigh Dickerson in the season finale that left them with a perfect season. The season is just a memory now, highlighted now by the achievement of an unbeaten and untied record. Untied Head coach Bob Weiss and offensive coordinator Robi discuss strategy during the game.

Sports • 83 Unsurpassed D uring the record breaking season there were many highlights. The season’s record was a team effort, everyone had to contribute from the seniors to the freshmen. From their contributions came a list of records, numerous awards, and recognitions. The team was the highest scoring team in the history of the school, cranking up 225 total points while gaining 3 ,182 yards by rushing. Against RPI, running back Randy Mocadlo rushed for 239 records and two touchdowns to set a WPI single game rushing record. Randy was awarded the New England Gold Helmet Award honoring outstanding individual performances in New England. In the season finale Mike Carbone also won the Gold Helmet award for rushing 199 yards and scoring three touchdowns. He also won ECAC Player of the Week honors for the same performance. Carbone ' s outstanding season performance led to a WPI scoring record of 78 points and a rushing record of 1,123 yards. Ed Mackey and Carbone won the Pritchard Award for their performances in the Homecoming game verse Colby. At the end of the season Carbone, Costa Evangelakos, John Bibinski, and Bill Feraco were awarded first team All-New England Honors and Head coach Weiss was awarded Coach of the Year Honors from numerous organizations. The WPI football team was the only undefeated college team in New England. The team finished first in the New England poll and ninth in the nation. The graduating seniors will leave a large gap in the team next year ' s team.

T he Lady Enginners enjoyed another successful season, culminating in a third consecutive championship in the Worcester City Tournament. Victories over Anna Maria and Worcester State enabled the field hockey team to secure the travelling trophy. The veteran squad showed its maturity and determination by starting off the season with an eight game winning streak. The disappointing loss came to Tufts, a strong division II powerhouse. The team finished with a successful 16-5 record, but not before capturing the Division III State Title and placing second in the Northeast. In the MAIAW State Tournament WPI, seeded second, defeated Clark with a 3-2 victory in the semi-finals. They wen t on to beat Anna Maria in the finals with a 1-0 score. WPI continued its outstanding play in the ECAC Tournament. The Lady Engineers survived a tough opening round match with a 1-0 victory over an impressive Plymouth State squad. WPI then met Bridgewater State in the final round playing them evenly into two overtime periods. WPI succumbed to the pressure of a strokeoff and narrowly lost the championship, 1-0. The success of the 1983 season was partially due to the great play of five talented seniors. Senior co-captains Karen Brock and Robin Hart displayed great eat leadership abilities on the field through their aggressive, heads up play. Four year starter Karen Brock helped lead a potent WPI offensive attack by scoring three goals and contributing five assists.

State Champs Robin Hart proved to be WPI’s most productive offensive player as she scored 15 goals and had four assists. Time and time again Robin’s aggressive play around the opponents’ net was an inspiration to her teammates. The strength of WPI’s defense originated from the outstanding performances of three multi-talented seniors. Kathy Cronin, from her halfback position was a catalyst on the hustling and aggressive Engineer defense. Kelli Mackey continually thrwarted opponent’s scoring attempts through her consistent play at sweeper position. Perhaps WPI’s most awesome defensive weapon was the outstanding performance of goal keeper Cathy Dalton. Cathy posted ten shut-outs while maintaining a .65 goals against average during the course of the season. Once again junior Chris Clancy had a superb season and continued to impress opponents and spectators alike with her skill and finesse. As a result of her impressive play, Chris was selected as a first team NECFHA all-star. Also chosen for all-star teams this season were Jackie Thibeault, Moe McGlone and Kathy Taylor. The overall talent and depth of the team was a major factor in achieving a winning season. Each member of the squad played with dedication, and the strong returning nucleus of talented and experienced players should allow the Lady Engineers to continue their winning tradition.

The 1983-1984 season concluded with an 18-3 dual meet record and a third place finish in the New England Championships. Nine out of our ten varsity wrestlers earned All-New England honors including two who advanced into the national NCAA division III tournament held in Binghampton, New York. Led by tri-captains Rich Testa, Stu MacEachern, and George Duane, WPI started off the first half of the season very strongly, ending with a 9-1 record before Christmas break, losing only to Division I powerhouse William Mary. Highlights of the season were the four wins against division I competition, the defeat of Western New England College, and the capturing of the 1 ranking in New England. At 118 pounds, senior and former New England Champion Rich Testa had the most outstanding statistics on the team. He attained a dual meet record of 18-1, tying the school record of eleven pins in one season. With 103 team points Rich provided the team with exciting and fantastic starts every meet.

I n a season that began in ominous fashion, the Worcester Polytechnic Institute men’s basketball team caught fire in early December. After losing three of its first four games, WPI went on to win 13 of 19 contests and finished the ’83-’84 season with a 14-9 record. Enjoying their third consecutive winning season — something which has not been done at WPI since 1941 — the Engineers posted an 11-6 record after Christmas break and comprised winning streaks of five and four games through January and February. The Engineers started the season by placing second in the Worcester Savings Basketball Tournament, as WPI lost Clark, 89-80, in the Championship game. WPI then lost consecutive games to Babson and Wesleyan before winning its last two games over Bowdoin and Amherst before breaking for the holidays. After losing its first game back to Division II Lowell, WPI ran off five Greg Fiddes after a shot at the foul line. consecutive victories over Thomas College, New York University Bates, Anna Maria and Middlebury, before losing a hard-fought 66-61 decision at Norwich. WPI then split the next four games before hitting another hot streak during which they defeated MIT Suffolk, Brandeis, and Nichols in succession. There were many reasons for the success enjoyed by Head Coach Ken Kaufman’s club, but a major reason was the play of junior guards Orville Bailey and Gregg Fiddes. Bailey, the team’s leading scorer (20.7 ppg) and the fifth highest scorer in WPI history, scored 20 or more points fifteen times, while scoring in double figures every game this season; meanwhile Fiddes (17.0 ppg) also had a spectacular year as the second leading scorer on the team, plus topping the club in assists (79). Bailey and Fiddes each surpassed the 1,000 point plateau during the season. Sports • 97 The finish of a fastbreak. Going for the block.

To Post Third Consecutive Winning Season But a good basketball team needs five players to be successful, not just two, and the frontline play of senior co-captains Larry Manor and Chris Roche, along with the rapid development of freshman center John Loonie were also major factors in WPI’s success. Roche, third in team scoring (13.0 ppg) and second in assists (65), used his potent outside shooting to offset opponent’s zone defenses; while Manor, the teams second leading rebounder (6.7 rpg) teamed up with Loonie to WPI a formidable rebounding tandem. Loonie continually improved as the season progressed scoring in double figures eleven times, plus leading the team in rebounding (7.6 rpg) and placing fourth in scoring (10.0 ppg). When help was needed, Kaufman relied on substitutes Chris Whitney, Chris Lohring and Paul Lubas upfront while junior guard Ron Wojick expertly served as third guard.

The squad captured the Worcester City Championship with junior Co-Captain Scott Hand placing first. Scott was WPTs most consistant front runner, outrunning the pack every chance he could get. Sophomore Jerry Robblie, the team’s most improved runner, was a consist ant second. Team victories were a result of individual efforts. Outstanding senior Greg Langer moved into the top five. Other contributors to a winning season were seniors Scott Hunt, Steve Joyce, and Co-captain Paul Nowak. These upperclassmen will be sorely missed next season. Another contributing factor to the harriers’ improved season was the addition of new freshmen talent. Helping the team tremendously were Brian Laprise and Paul Cunningham, both consistantly finishing in the top five.

Sports • 101 Coach Sheila LaPerle gives pointers on serve and volley to the No. 1 Doubles team. fA ' - ' ' .. ' L 1 • L ' - ' Tennis Anyone? TThe Women’s Tennis Team had an exceptional season. With the return of only two players from last year, the team finished with a 9-4 winning record. The success of the season was a culmination of many factors. First year coach, Sheila LaPerle, gave her support to the players and proved to be the underlying force behind the team’s success. Bringing with her a unique aspect of tennis, she improved both the techniques and competitive spirit of the girls, which is so important in court play. Of course team victories could not have been won without individual efforts. No. 1 Singles player and Captain, Jenny Davis enjoyed her last season with a 10-3 record. Jenny proved to be a steadying force throughout her three years on the team, and she will be missed next year. Freshmen Terry Ragan (NO. 4 Singles) and Christine Tondora (No. 5 Singles), both compiled winning seasons, demonstrating their ability to play under pressure. WPI is looking forward to the return of another freshman, Michelle Miles, who gave the team depth at the NO. 6 Singles position. Many close matches were secured by the outstanding performances of the doubles teams. No one could dispute the talent of the No. 2 Doubles pair of Cheryl Buitenhuys and Tracy Webster. Besides their strong play as a team, these two also displayed their abilities as individual players at the No. 2 and No. 3 Singles positions, respectively. All in all, the fifth year of Women’s Varsity Tennis was exciting and unforgettable. With the loss of only one starter, the team is looking forward to another successful season. 102 • Sports At the net, freshman Terry Ragan waits for the serve. Baseline power from Tracy Webster.

Sports • 103 Spikes and Spirit In its 6th season as a varsity sport at WPI, the women’s volleyball team completed another record season with 10 wins and 18 losses. The talented 14 member team had a strong season finish which was highlighted by an upset victory over Regis College, a contender in the State tournament. The pyramid of players was led by co-captains Barbara Jean Thissell and Marion Keeler. Throughout her four years on the team, senior Marion Keeler represented eternal team spirit and psyche. She contributed both defensively in the back row and offensively in the front row and serving. Junior Barb Thissell, who was hardly ever seen without her beloved pal Kermie, the team mascot, was a dependable server and placed many winning down-the-line spikes. Senior Jackie Biascochea was an experienced setter and bumper famous for her great saves. Junior Joyce Barker was a true athlete with superb form whether in her power serve, block, or ace spike. Defending WPI in the back row was also junior Fran Weiss. A versatile and talented player was sophomore Linda Plaza, who excelled in floor play and hitting as well as setting. Sophomore Sue Padell was a definite “natural” on the court. Her expert sets and steady serves added momentum and control to team play. Another sophomore, Jeanne Travers, was known for her consistent serving and strong hitting combined with occasional setting. In her first year on the team, Donna Barone demonstrated her well-developed skills in both setting and spiking. Robin Gately, a second year player, was a hitter and server who got stronger by the day. Rounding out the sophomore group was Cheryl “Killer” Macedo whose stunning precision spikes and serves were destined to destroy. Two freshmen brought both talent and enthusiasm to the team. Nancy Clark leaped to the front row to lead the team in blocking. She also got a chance to display her sharp hitting skills. Mary Kendrick amazed everyone as a first time player who quickly developed into an extremely proficient bumper and defender. Fans were often scarce at games but sophomore Evelyn Marshall, the dedicated scorekeeper, was a friendly regular. The team was coached by Nancy Vaskas who never forgot you on your birthday. For the first time, the team had a volunteer assistant coach, Karen Dzialo. Hips contributed her “extraordinary” skills mastered in her heydays as co-captain of the WPI volleyball team. Next year looks bright for the women’s volleyball team as talent, tradition, and past and future combine to build an ever-spirited pyramid. 104 • Sports • Back Row: Asst.

This season also saw an increase in numbers with 16 men and 18 women, meaning the end to our co¬ ed program and separate men’s varsity and women’s varsity next year. The co-ed varsity program produced a 6 win 7 loss season, with a 1 point loss to Holy Cross being the difference from a winning season. A four meet program for just women did not produce any victories but reinforced the women’s interest in their own competition. Six women represented WPI at this year’s New England Championships. The relay team of Missy Hurley, Cathy Dochak, Jodi Gates and Erin Carroll, placed 12th in the 200 medley and 14th in the 400 medley while Missy Hurley placed 23rd in the 500 free, 11th in the 200 back, 18th in the 400 IM, and 15th in the 100 back. Cathy Dochak placed 9th in the 50 breast, 14th in the 100 breast, and 14th in the 200 breast. Other performances were: Karen Brock, 23rd in the 50 breast; Erin Car- roll, 37th in the 50 Free; Jodi Gates, 21st in the 50 Fly, 17th in the 100 IM, and 20th in the 400 Free relay. WPI women scored 39 points for 18th place in the 1984 Division B Championships. Six men represented WPI at this year’s New England Championships. Bruce Carbone scored all of WPI’s points when he finished 11th in the 400 IM, 14th in the 200 breast, and 14th in the 200 IM. Other WPI performances were: Andy Gagnon, 48th in the 1650 Free, 55th in the 500 Free, and 21st in the 800 Free Relay; Bill MacNeilly, 32nd in the 200 Back and 35th in the 100 Back; Tom Maneual, 45th in the 200 Back, and 42nd in the 100 Back; Dave Jalbert, 29th in the 50 Free, 65th in the 100 Free, 24th in the 400 Medley Relay team, and 27th in the 400 Free Relay.

T he 83-84 WPI hockey season was not a season up the expectations of the players and fans. The Engineers compiled a record of 11-6-1 and ended the season in third place in the New England Small College Association. The team was rebuilding due to the loss of most of the defensive core and two offensive lines from the previous year. First year coach Don Pacific, the third coach in four years, had his work cut out for him. The team received a shot in the arm from first year players Dave Latullipe, Bob Blais, Mike Gonsor and Jim Handanyan. Back from last year was the line of Mike Duquette, Paul Hogan, and Dave Henry, who with the scrappy play of the line including Todd Guay, Latullipe, and Handanyan provided much of the WPI offense. The highlight of the season was the 6-3 thrashing of MIT which broke a three year losing streak in the rivalry. The next two games were both lost as the team entered a lull. The club bounced back peaking just prior to the playoffs, winning five games in a row. Unfortunately the loss of ace defenseman Dave Rossi hindered WPI’s chances in the playoffs. Next season should be an excellent season for the icemen. Only three seniors will be leaving the team this year. Forward Co-Captain Paul Fortier will be leaving after an injury shortened season, as will be goaltenders John Bibinski and Co-Captain Doug Rich. Since a veteran squad is expected back, a championship team is a definite possibility. Sports •109 Too Much in Too Little Time T he Engineers were victims of a grueling schedule. The baseball team concluded its spring season with an 8-19 record. Expectations had been high for the team especially after touring the South during spring break. The team recorded an 4-3 record down south. Outstanding performances were recorded by Senior Tri-Captains Chucky Hickey (8 runs scored, 5 steals), Jack Holzman (.375, 1 save), and Bob Hess (2 games won, 14 strikeouts). The underclassmen showed their strength also with Dan Coakley (.417), Mike Dolan (.294), and freshmen Dave Scala (.583) 1 game won), Steve Nolan (.545), and Mike Shipulski (.350, 10 RBTs, 2 homeruns). The southern performance led first year coach Jim Culpepper to remark, “We’re much farther along right now than I thought we would be.” The snow at the beginning of D-Term caused havoc with the WPI schedule. The team played 15 games within 22 days, including 4 double-headers. The schedule took its toll as the baseball team won only four more games against New England opponents. Hess was the ace of the pitching staff achieving a 5-4 record with a 2.81 ERA and 63 strikeouts. Senior Chuck Hickey led the club in hitting at .338, total bases 36, stolen bases 28, and walks 22. Sophomore Joe Olaynack batted .321. Freshman Dave Scala finished the season at .320, leading the team in doubles 6 while second in RBI’s with 15. Another freshman, Mike Shipulski led the team in RBI’s 16 while batting .310 and leading the team in homeruns with 3. Senior Jack Coach Culpepper and Bob Hess observing the game from the bench.

Doza, the tough guy! Determination T he WPI women’s softball team found themselves in a rebuilding year as they had lost four seniors in key positions but still managed to compile an overall record of 6-7 against strong opponents. Coach Lynn Olson found more than able players to fill in the missing gaps and has created a strong nucleus for many seasons ahead with this talented, young core of players. An opening day victory over Western Connecticut College only seemed to confirm the hopes that this young team would bring still another winning season to WPI fans. Co-captain Michelle Bugbee pitched a strong game to overpower W.C.C. for the 6-1 victory. An overall potent offensive attack was led by senior Co-captain Karen Brock who had 2 hits and 1 rbi. The second game of the season against cross town rival Clark University ended with a tough 2-3 loss. However, against their next opponent, Nichols, the Lady Engineers played an outstanding game both offensively and defensively. Michelle Bugbee pitched her first shutout of the season while getting all the offensive help she needed from her teammates as they belted out a 13 hit attack for an impressive 3-0 victory. WPI then split its next four games to bring its record to 4-3 while heading into the state tournament. The Lady Engineers were seeded second in the states and were expected to battle for the championship. This hope was destroyed by a very strong and talented SMU team in the first round of competition. WPI had a very impressive outing, only to be outlasted by the Mustangs in the final innings 1-2. The loss was especially tough to take because WPI had played such a strong game. Bug hurled a 3 hitter while the WPI defense was almost flawless in committing only two errors throughout the game. During the next two games, the Lady Engineers overpowered Fitchburg for an easy 7-4 victory, and brought yet another tough loss to a talented Brandeis team, 2-3. Against an extremely strong Rhode Island College team, WPI suffered a double defeat, 2-7 and 5-6, in their season’s first doubleheader. The team then showed its character by rebounding to win their last game of the season against Roger Williams by an impressive 6-2 margin. Congratulations from Coach Lynn Olson went to her two senior Co-captain§ Michelle Bugbee and Karen Brock for their leadership and outstanding seasons. Bug finished the season with a 6- record and an ERA of 3.39. Her talented performances on the mound kept WPI in many games this season and her absence will be felt greatly next year. KB started in center field this year and awed WPI fans with a series of outstanding defensive plays. She was a mainstay in the WPI women’s softball program for four years and will be sorely missed. The fact that the remainder of this year’s team will be returning next year has Coach Olson highly optimistic about the future. Juniors Chris Clancy and Mary Cardoza will both be back. Chrissy had an overall great year as she was a solid performer in the field as well as an offensive powerhouse, hitting a solid .435. Mary had a fantastic year in the field as she continually amazed everyone with her quickness and agility at second base. 114 • Sports Strike three on the batter!

Chr is Tondora and Cindy Perkins provided excellent power at the plate while Deb Desrochers proved to be an all around solid performer. Moe McGlone played an intricate role in the success of this year’s season as she was continually asked to fill in at several key positions. Her ability to adapt allowed her to handle each different position with ease. Coach Olson is optimistic about the future success of the team and her hopes seem well founded considering the leadership and young talent that the WPI team possesses.

One Winning Season After Another T he ’84 campaign was a highly successful year for the men’s track and field squad. Coach Merl Norcross’ team continued its league domination with its nineteenth consecutive winning season, finishing with a 8-2 won-loss record. Captured the fourteenth City Track Championship was one of the highlights of the spring after last years disappointing loss to the Holy Cross team. Senior Pete Sifferlen and junior Lloyd Tepper each won two events while Gerald Robblee, also a junior, set a City Championship record in the steeple chase. Sifferlen placed first in the discus and hammer throws and Tepper captured the sprints, placing first in the 100 and 200 meter dashes. The key to WPI’s victory, though, were the first place finishes in the 400 and mile relays where Holy Cross was narrowly defeated. Continuing an outstanding season the team placed fourth at the Division III Championships with 56 points one behind Trinity’s 57. WPI received many fin e performances at the meet including Dan Pond’s record setting victory in the 110-meter hurdles and Sifferlen’s 118 • Sports winning toss of 182-1 feet. Second place finishes were turned in by Pat Barry in the decathlon, Sifferlen in the discus, John Economu in the 400-meters, and Lloyd Tepper in the 100-meters. Following the Division III meet WPI participated in the New England Championship at Dartmouth College. Three individuals, Sifferlen, Pond, and Barry placed in their events. Both Pete Sifferlen and junior Dan Pond qualified for the NCAA Division III Track and Field Championship. Sifferlen, who qualified in the hammer throw, made his third trip while Pond, who qualified in the 110-meter hurdles, made his second visit. Sifferlen was able to place second improving from his fourth place finish last year. Pond unfortunately was not able to place. The loss of Pete Sifferlen and John Economu will hurt the team next year, but with abundance of young talent the tradition will continue. The WPI women’s track team ended the spring at 1-4. The season was a serious setback in the development of the young team. The women did have some steady performers: Elaine Santry Michelle Payant, and Ellen Regan. Next year’s team will be chock full of experienced performers and hopefully success since only a few seniors will be leaving the team in May. Modern jousting Reaching new heights.

After last spring’s 6-1 club, the initial outlook for year was pessimistic due to the graduation of many key players. The fall rugby team led by the Zuccolillo brothers, Carlos and Rolando, Howie, Doug Anneser, Bob Hanson, and Andy Bruno, showed itself equal to the task of living up to last year’s squad. The team finished the Fall season with a 5-4 record; the first winning Fall season in the short history of the club. The team opened up the season losing to a hard-hitting Quincy RFC. The tough loss was followed by a win over RPI and a surprising and emotional win against MIT. Next came the annual Worcester Tournament where WPI lost to two city teams. The weekend after the tournament the rugby team won a closely contested match with West Roxbury RFC. The next game saw the team soundly beat the Bryant club.

The frustrations of the UMASS weekend were taken out upon the Bryant RFC. The team steamrolled the Bryant team. In the last game of the season WPI lost a tough game to a hard hitting Trinity team where the Teach team dominated every facet of the game except for the scoreboard. The team finished the spring with a 5-4 record. Most of the games were very close and the club showed itself to be a superior team to schools of similar size, while battling against the larger schools. Next fall the team will be joining a league which will include some of the best schools in New England: UMASS, BU, BC, RPI, Brandeis, and Bowdoin. The quick rise of the club is due to many people but a large part of the credit must be given to Carlos Zuccolillo. He formed the club in 1980 and he has been an important part of the team as the RFC has developed into one of the strongest clubs on campus and in the New England RFC Circuit. This past spring was Carlos last since he graduated in May. Good Luck to Zucco and all the dedicated seniors: Doug Anneser, Dave Grace, Howie, Al Marinelli, Keith McNeil, Dave Payne, Pouli, Nick Sanford, Mike Stone, Dave Tormey. The WPI women’s RFC experienced scheduling problems throughout the year. The games they did play a lack of numbers hurt them. They could always boast though; “We may lose the game but we always win the party!” The team was undefeated in the post-game boat races.

On the Downswing A fter uncompromising Mother Nature ended her relentless snow, the WPI golf team was finally able to tee off. After last year’s 9-7 squad which graduated six seniors, this spring was deemed to be a rebuilding season. The season turned out to be just that. WPI did not win its first match until the fourth meet. The golfers ended their season at 3-10, victorious over Clark, Merrimack, and Springfield. The only bright spot in an otherwise dismal season was freshman Eric Meerbach who consistantly shot the team low. Hopefully next year’s team with a year’s experience under their belts will be on the upswing.

Sports • 131 Grimaces Rowing A fter competing in the fall without a coach the women’s crew team obtained a coach only one month before the spring season began. Coach Sarah Piermanini had high hopes for the spring. “The team was without a coach all fall and they have come a long way with no help,’’ she stated, “they have a lot of potential.’’ The women Engineers lived up to her analysis. Starting off slowly the varsity-4 boat peaked at the New Englands finishing second, only nine seconds off the winning time. That was only the beginning; the next weekend the women’s varsity-four boat rowed to another second place finish in the Dad Vail Home! The men’s varsity-8 boat pressing for the lead. Upward Regatta. Next year’s team will have a difficult time trying to match the success of the varsity-4 boat, rowed by coxswain senior Nancy Smith, stroke Chiara Whalen, senior Chris Pelosi, junior Julie Ruksnaitus, and junior Virginia Nodden, since three women will have graduated. The men’s crew team led by coach Dave Ploss and captain Dave Brin finished a respectable season.

The consistant and strong showings by the JV and freshman boats during the past spring allows a optimistic outlook for next fall. “It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes up short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; who at the worst, if he fails while daring greatly; so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither defeat nor victory.” — T.

Rebounding from last year’s 3-6-1 team, the Engineers ended the season at 5-3, highlighted by a win over Holy Cross in the team’s opener. The tennis team received awesome play from the number one single, senior Dan Mott. His final record for the spring was 6-2, at one point in the season his record was 5-0. The highlight of Dan’s season was his victory over Suffolk tennis ace. Bob Rauseo, who had won 19 straight matches before Dan’s victory. Dan also handed the Suffolk tennis player his last loss two years ago. WPI also had a very good supporting cast made up of number two single senior Greg Durand (3-4), number three single Carlos Gretter (5-3), John Scacciotti (4-3), Tom Costello (4-4), and a pleasant surprise by Eric Reidmeister (5-1). Next year’s team will be without the services of Dan Mott and Greg Durand, but the strong showing by the juniors and sophomores this spring will give the Engineers another respectable season.

Each week, student editors, writers and photographers identify, investigate and write stories; shoot and develop pic¬ tures; edit copy; sell advertising; plan lay¬ outs and distribute Newspeak to its readers on and off the WPl campus. In December, the 1984 editorial board was elected: Editor-In-Chief Kirsten Storm, Advertising Manager Carol Wil¬ der, Business Manager Ed Childs, Cir¬ culation Manager Sue Stidsen, Graphics Editor Carlo Verrengia, News and Fea¬ tures Editor Howard Bernard, Photogra¬ phy Editor Walter Plante, Sports Editors Greg Tashjian and Kathy Taylor, and Associate Editors Dave Drab, Steve Knopping, Maureen O’Brien and Jeff Winick. The new editors are concentrating on continuing the effective policies of ex- officio Editor-In-Chief Steve Knopping and improving the quality of the newspa¬ per in various ways. They instituted new features and are looking into the pur¬ chase of a computer to simplify copy editing, business accountkeeping, and layout design. Throughout the school year, News- peak acts as a chronicle of current issues and events while looking forward to what the years after 1984 might bring.

The weekend Degan with a pep rally, a revival of an old tradition with a new theme, The goat is back. Let ' s kick ass! This theme signified the return of our school mascot and encouraged defeat over Colby College whose mascot is a mule. The event was welcomed by our mascot, a goat with an engineer ' s hat and overalls. The goat costume was completed and given to the athletic department by Joyce Cutting, a member of the cheerleading squad. It cheered the fans on at all home football games. The pep rally MC ' s were Sue Langlais and Doug Anneser who introduced each coach and encouraged him or her to express their ambitious aims for the season. Sue and Doug also lead the audience in psyche and gave them a chance to express their enthusiasm by performing original cheers. These were judged by a panel comprised of illustrious WPI grounds crew. Phi Sigma Sigma sorority was Events 199 A Goat, Victorious Teams, Fraternity Floats, And A Lot Of Muck awarded first place and the Pep Band was named second. Penny Hawley was recognized for her individual expression of psyche, in spite of the limitation of a cast on her leg. Despite the rain, cold and muck which arrived just as the traditional events were beginning. Homecoming Day ran as scheduled except for the postponement of the paddle rush competition between •the freshman and sophomores. The colorful, creative fraternity and sorority floats set the scene for the spirited day Saturday morning. Each float was an ingenious display of engineering as well as artistic talent and the panel of float judges had a tough choice to make but, found the float of the Alpha Chi Rho fraternity the best. On Saturday afternoon, the athletic teams reinforced the pep rally theme, The goat is back. Let ' s kick ass! , as they tromped their opponents. Our football team continued its undefeated season with a 30-7 victory over Colby College. The cross country team captured the Worcester City Championships beating Holy Cross, Assumption, Worcester State, and Clark. The women engineers showed their strength as the field hockey team upped its record to 8-0 by defeating Franklin Pierce College, while the women ' s volleyball team was victorious over St. Joseph ' s College. After the football game, the more adventurous of the crowd moved across Salisbury Street to Institute Park to witness the freshmen pull the sophomores into Institute Pond. The rain drenched soggy earth contributed to an already messy event but made excellent conditions for the fearless daredevils to slide down the Institute Park Hill on their bellies and rears. 200 • Events r JL 1865VPI I891f,«s:F«.« 1978TheCR0W landed Events • 201 And A Celebration ! Saturday ' s traditional semiformal nightclub was an excellent chance to celebrate the day ' s victories and Harrington Auditorium, filled to capacity, was the site of the celebration. The couples danced to the lively music of Down Time and, as usual, ignored the comedian ' s show. The highlight of the evening was the crowning of the Homecoming Queen. The three semifinalists were called onto the stage, Diana Waskevich, Rhonda Lamparelli and to everyone ' s surprise, Ma Fell, the cook at the Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity. Then the queen was announced. Ma won! She became WPI ' s oldest Homecoming Queen and made t he biggest news story in recent WPI history. The tale of her beating two girls young enough to be her grandchildren was printed in papers and announced on radios all over the country. She proved that the best way to a man ' s heart if through his stomach and changed the American motto; Baseball, hot dogs, i apple pie and Ma Fell . Maybe Ma won j because, as was stated in Newspeak, A ( vote for Ma Fell is like voting for your mother and who would vote against their mother? 202 • Events Events • 203 A Place of Varied Activities WPFs Goat ' s Head Pub had an unexpected popularity this year when open fraternity parties were banned on campus at the beginning of B-term. The fraternity based entertainment became less active for a short time and The Pub was the place to be. This was not a popular trend adjustment for avid fraternity party fans. Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity brothers expressed this dislike of the new policy with a Pub Invasion when numerous Apes took over the Pub one night. As always. Pub activities were plentiful and varied. They ranged from the ever popular Friday happy hours which a few attended many of and many attended a few of; to the romantic nightclub where couples danced and drank in semi-formal attire; to the repulsive skoal night where guys stuffed their mouths with skoal chewing tobacco; to the majestic Medieval Manor where everyone dined in royalty with jesters, fools, and a king; to the dance marathon where the participants literally danced the night away; to the wild and wacky match and dating games which were more fun than successful at making couples. 204 • Events WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE KFFP CHUGGING ENGINEERS!! Happy Hours Tuesday and Friday afternoons from 4:00 to 7:00 were the special times for the Pub. “Happy Hour was how they were described and those two words meant cheap beer and wine coolers, lots of people, buckets of free munchies, and even entertainment sometimes on Tuesdays. Events • 205 Formal Affairs Saturday nights The Pub was the spot on campus to hear live music of various popular styles, mostly New Wave. On good nights the floor was full of people dancing in couples and groups or just enjoying the music. The back room was quieter and allowed for conversation. Week nights although not as popular as the library, the Pub was great for mellow studying, for enjoying an after studying beer, for meeting with friends, and for watching TV on “the Big Screen . The Big Screen was especially attractive when major sports events were broadcast. But, it is not the specific events that make the Pub The Pub . It ' s the people we always saw there. It ' s the fact that it was always there, from freshman year on it was where one could get a cheap beer, where one could find a familiar face. That ' s why a friend saying Let ' s go to the Pub always had a comforting ring. That ' s why we ' re gonna miss it when it ' s not so handy. 206 • Events W!i m ❖ ' � ii;iiais iiffl II ifjm and Informal Affairs Events • 207 A Warm Winter Evening 208 • Events Events • 209 spree Day WPI ' s surprise day of freedom from the daily drudgery of academic demands and responsibilities was proclaimed Friday, April 27. Posters hung around the campus, and a 7:00 AM cannon blast confirmed the student ' s suspicions that Spree Day had arrived. The Quad was the site of Soccomm sponsored live entertainment featuring the band Chicken Legs Revue. The music made the Quad a great spot to relax in the sun, toss a frisbee around or just hang out and socialize. Alcoholic beverages were not allowed on campus, another experiment in Social Committee ' s quest for an event popular with the students and agreeable to the administration. Previously, alcohol was allowed but live music was not presented. The absence of alcohol was reflected in the relatively small number of students enjoying the festivities on the hill. Many students chose to party off campus where alcohol was plentiful. The name of the day, previously changed to May Feast, was changed back to Spree Day in an effort to attract more students. Spree Day happened to fall on Junior Prom Weekend, making the weekend extra full of activities, from Friday morning to Saturday night the celebrating continued. 210 • Events Si A Events 211 This traditional weekend promoting unity among fraternities and sororities began on a wild note. On Friday night The Goat ' s Head Pub was transformed into what looked like the set of TV ' s Fraternities Unite Match and Dating game shows. The participants, dressed in their most wild outfits, answered questions using their funniest, rudest, and most alluring imagination. The crowd, which filled the Pub to over capacity, urged on their favorite stars and added to the crazyness of the event. Saturday brought the exciting and amusing pledge competition which proved once and for all which house had the best pledges (or at least the pledges who could win races with their legs tied together, with arms full of basketballs, with one on top of the other and such.) The weekend activities culminated with the infamous IFC auction with auctioneer . .. the one and only . . . Dean Trask. The chance of the year to get good stuff cheap while benefiting The United Way. 212 • Events jssss-sTs fliiniiww iniiliiiS . !im « ' Events • 213 Junior Prom The Junior Class lucked out when they chose Junior Prom weekend. April 27th and 28th turned out to be the first real warm, sunny weekend of the spring. Friday, the 27th also happened to be Spree Day and the die-hards of the day were able to continue celebrating the coming of spring at the Metro-To-Go that night in Alden Hall. It was a night of dancing to music played by a D.J. while watching videos from Boston ' s Metro Club. Saturday, a perfect day of sunshine brought the continuation of activities and music on the Quad. The events started with the fraternity and sorority chariot races, a display of artistic talent and physical speed. The tug-of-war competition, extra challenging with the prize of a keg, made the competitors show their stuff. A live band, for the second day in a row, brought the Quad to life and a special dance presentation was given by WPTs dance club during the band ' s break. As always, the JP nightclub was held in Harrington Auditorium Saturday night and the casual daytime attire was replaced by the semiformal dress of the evening affair. The lively crew danced to the music of Down East and were entertained by comedian Lenny Clarke. 214 • Events Events • 215 216 • Events Events • 217 ONE LAST CELEBRATION 218 • Closing Closing • 219 220 • Closing Closing • 221 GRADUATION i. 4 222 • Closing Closing • 223 224 • Closing 4 Closing • 225 Closing • 227 SENIOR DINNER DANCE 228 • Closing Closing • 229 230 • Closing f I i 1 1 i8j i!SlE!l sC- ' 1 V 1 i ' ' ■’• 1 } 1 j SSbUS : ' t0m j j Closing • 231 232 • Closing ONE LAST LOOK Closing • 233 GOLD Well done Jeff.
