INSTRUCTIONS NOT INCLUDED

Nine numbers for each of six thousand names. A presidential election and residential colleges.

Students and their social security numbers, national and local political changes.

Students - the main ingredient. Events added flavor and spice.

The elements combined in a sometimes natural, sometimes illogical mixture of people, 
academics, groups, sports and student lives.

We made up the rules as we went along a 12-month journey. No road maps, recipes or formulas 
- Instructions Not Included.

The final product emerged. 1989.

Local, state, national and international events shaped the world while we shaped each other. 
The KTVO-TV tower collapsed and a drought dried the earth. We tried and failed to pre-register 
for an entire academic year.

Somehow the bigger events fit into our own world of campus life and each individual sifted 
through the most important memories to form an image of 1989, even though the instructions 
were not included.

A conglomeration of shapes, colors and sizes spilled into our lives and patterns repeated until a 
sense of order emerged.

Slave auctions became service auctions and pledges were associates. The names and faces 
changed but the traditions stayed the same despite the lack of instructions.

Students relax behind the SUB. The benches next to the flower beds were a popular place to 
study.

Fall Leadership Conference lengthened to one week of instruction but we ignored the 
instructions and shortened Homecoming week to five days.

An invisible set of instructions told students to tear and cuff their jeans and convinced the 
University to reinstate the wrestling program.

The instructions did not exist but students brought an ample supply of toast, rice and umbrellas 
to Rocky Horror Picture Show during Dog Days. The Dog Days queen pussyfooted her way into 
the competition. Roo the cat won.

Who could replace a Vincent Price performance? (The Nebraska Theatre Caravan.) Where do

What do you do when you need to know your midterm grades? (Convince the administration to 
mail them to your local address.) Why is the gum tree covered with gum? (Because it's there.) 
When will tuition quit rising? (Good question.) How do you get an Ivy-league education at a 
public university? (Look it up-we're in the book.)

We dropped in, warmed up and crowded around. We were victors (or is it victims?) of value-
added. We lived through 1989 even though we found Instructions Not Included.

Academics

Sitting through classes and studying for exams -- we were here to get an education. But 
academics meant more than just taking 124 credit hours and following the changes of the Five 
Year Planning Document.

Academics brought new faces to the administration and new faculty members instructing 
courses. Students learned through classes, while faculty learned through research grants.

Registration and advising caused problems for students. Scaffolding framed the library and 
rejection framed the multipurpose building. Pieces in the puzzle of academics.

Noted authors, famed entertainers and cultural performances added to academic life.

Students shared a common goal: to meet graduation requirements and obtain a diploma.

Instructions Not Included.

next to Adair House.

enjoyed warm weather.

Instructors now included

Liberal arts finally hit home, the homes of students that is. Last year Missouri and Ryle halls 
adopted the residential college system.

The residential colleges were designed to provide support for students in their personal lives 
and studies. This was accomplished by both increasing interaction between students and a 
combination of peer advisers and faculty.

"The residential college will help support students academically, as well as emotionally and 
socially," sophomore Christy Fitzmaurice said.

Residential colleges replaced resident advisers with peer advisers. Previously an RA took 
responsibility for an entire house (and about 60-90 students). Each house in the residential 
colleges had three PAs who were in charge of approximately 20 students.

The difference could be seen in the focus of their jobs. With 60 people to watch over, RAs were 
considered to be more of a disciplinary figure, while the PAs were considered more of a friend.

"The ACPs (assistants to the college professors) and the PAs provide a sense of security for the 
residents, said freshman Leslie Jones. "If I have a problem, I have people I can talk to."

Some students were not supportive of the residential colleges. Sophomore Laurie Robinson, 
who lived in Centennial Hall, said, "I would not be able to handle all the peer advisers, I think the 
RAs are intrusive enough, but having one peer adviser for every 20 people is ridiculous."

While students were supposed to feel closer to their PAs than their RAs, the opposite had 
happened to junior Janet Orf, a resident of Ryle

"I'm not real close to my PA," Orf said. "In years before, I've been closer to my RA, but I think 
that is because I'm not used to the change. I don't like change so I'm trying to avoid it."

Residential colleges also included offices for academic planning counselors in the halls.

The residential colleges slowly and subtly provided changes and new opportunities for students, 
but did not drastically alter residence hall life. 

In the comfort of her hammock, Peer Advisor Rita Andrus, so., studies Latin. The Residential 
Colleges were modeled after similar programs at other universities.

"They moved me out of my room that I liked, because it was private, and gave it to a freshman. 
They didn't have to stand in line for it, and I did for two hours," -- Tammy Erhart, so., said.

"The basic idea is interesting and stems from a concern for potential dropouts. Our philosophy 
isn't to interfere, but to make known that we are here to talk, advise, or whatever the resident 
needs. I really don't know if it will work, but we want people to know that we are here. We have 
to do things together other than just live." -- Jim Thomas, Ryle South College professor said.

"I like it. It provides a good environment, but sometimes the rules are too strict," -- Jason Dickus, 
fr., said.

Pickler expands, study area created

Missouri taxpayers provided approximately $14,275,000 for the Pickler Memorial Library 
addition, which was due to be completed in 1991.

The gymnasium in Ophelia Parrish had been made into a temporary study hall due to the lack of 
study space in the library. The study hall, which held 84 seats, was projected to still be in use 
after the library was completed.

"When the library is done the study hall in Ophelia could be used as an art gallery or lecture hall. 
It's not permanent," Campus Planner Douglas Winicker said.

The renovation of the new study hall cost approximately $110,000.

Dr. George Hartje, library director, said the new computer system in the library cost about 
$60,000. Last year students received new library cards for checking out the library's books.

"If you are not currently enrolled, you're not in the current data base, so you can't borrow 
anything from the library as a student," Hartje said.

Hartje said library workers found the new system worked quicker. "It provides us with more 
administrative information. We get an automatic printout of overdue notices so all we need to 
do is pop them into an envelope and mail them." he said.

Some students, however, were skeptical. "I study in Ophelia all the time," freshman Teressa 
Gardner said. "I can study a hundred times better there than I can in the library." Pam Borage

A million quietly invested

In 1987, it would have been fine to put your feet up and drink a soda in the Student Union 
Building's quiet lounge. Last year it underwent a $1 million renovation, according to Campus 
Planning Doug Winicker, and therefore food and drinks were no longer allowed. Students had 
mixed feelings about the lounge's new look.

"It's elaborately decorated, but I think it's more for show than for studying," freshman Nikki 
Gibson said.

New carpet, couches, chairs, fresh paint and bigger tables added to the lounge's new look.

"I walked by and when it first caught my eye it reminded me of what a quiet lounge would look 
like at Harvard," sophomore Doug Ott said.

Winicker said the furniture was not purchased to impress people.

"The furniture was basically bought for its durability and also because it goes with the tradition 
of the building," Winicker said.

Potted trees were added to create a feeling of seclusion for those using the lounge. Winicker 
explained the other reason for the trees.

They were placed in there to divide up the lounge because it is so big," Winicker said. The 
lounge ceiling is too high to add a wall."

The trees, however, presented a new problem. The lighting system that provides the 
nourishment for the trees interfered with many students' studying.

"I don't mind the trees, but it really bothers me when I'm studying and the timer control for the 
lights clicks off," senior Chris Brown said.

Despite the new rules enforced in the newly remodeled room, the lounge was busier last year 
than in years past.

Senior James Robinson, a student manager at the SUB, noticed more people taking advantage of 
the lounge.

"There has been a big increase," Robinson said. "I work Tuesday nights and it's always packed."

Negative feelings about the new lounge and the new rules were summed up by sophomore John 
Schmitt.

"If you can't go in there and relax it's a waste," Schmitt said.

Information affects future job outlook

Faced with the challenge of finding a job after graduation, some students considered an 
alternative -- more school.

Attempting to aid students in search for a graduate institution to attend, Student Senate 
sponsored the first Graduate School Day on October 5,1988. The idea originated from the 
Student Senate's Academic Affairs committee and was sponsored by Student Senate and Delta 
Sigma Pi business fraternity.

"There was no resource available for those wanting to further their education so the committee 
decided a day should be designated for a 'college day' on a graduate school level," Karen 
Schroeder, Graduate School Day co-chairman, said.

Delta Sigma Pi previously sponsored an MBA (Master of Business and Accountancy) Day for 
business majors. The Student Senate committee planned to join Delta Sigma Pi and expand on 
MBA Day to include all majors. Representatives from graduate schools distributed information 
and applications to nearly 200 interested students.

Student interest in education beyond a four-year degree led to the creation of Graduate School 
Day. The University supported the idea because of the push to increase the number of students 
continuing their education. The displays pointed out the potential careers available after earning 
an advanced degree.

"We looked at evaluations and those who attended expressed they got the resources (they were 
looking for) and would like to see it again next year," Schroeder said.

Putting the future in place

Year after year college graduates pound the pavement for elusive financial security -- a job.

The Business Placement Center provided help for job searchers before graduation. The Center 
offered career guidance, records of personal credentials, mock interviews and on-campus 
interviews with various companies. The center also kept an updated list of job opportunities.

Education majors used the placement center located in the McKinney Center, while students in 
other fields sought help from Business Placement.

The Center also sponsored the annual Career Exposition. More than lOO companies participated 
in last year's expo.

Local businesses such as Adair County Health Department, Grim-Smith Hospital and Adair Foods 
participated last year, National corporations like IBM, Sprint and Iowa Beef Packing also 
participated.

A typical visit to the Center involved typing a student's credentials into the computer. A 
complete resume took 20 to 30 minutes using their computer system.

As a graduation requirement, seniors had to fill out placement papers with the center. The 
papers were kept at the center and put on file for use in job placements.

"The system is easy and convenient to use," Staff Member Ricki Trosen said. "Anyone can work 
it."

Trosen stated that the main purpose of the Center was not only to place students in jobs but to 
give them the opportunity to go through the interview process.

"(It) tears down the barriers between the employer and the student so that students realize that 
employers are human," Trosen said. "The employer needs the student just as much as the 
student needs the employer."

Surviving the hiring line

Faculty offices in janitor's closets became commonplace as the University hired 54 new 
instructors for the 1988-89 year.

The University hired 28 assistant professors and 26 temporary instructors and temporary 
assistant professors. The largest number of these, 16, were now a part of the Language and 
Literature Division.

Past publicity about the University attracted some instructors.

"I feel that I can contribute to any university, but I can make a greater contribution to a 
university like northeast that has a clear mission statement," Jeanne Lebow, assistant professor of 
English, said.

Darrell Krueger, vice president of Academic Affairs, said the University administrators look for 
broad-gauged thinkers. They look for people who can teach and "will help save the ship, not sink 
it."

Krueger said that slightly more of those hired for last school year were from liberal arts schools 
than those in other years.

Assistant Professor of Sociology, Keith Doubt, said, "You can see President McClain and Dean 
Krueger want the University to grow."

Junior Jennifer Hoogensen had mixed feelings about the new instructors think they are trying to find 
better instructors for the students, but I don't know if they're succeeding," Hoogensen said.

Confused class schedules and a lack of office space were the most obvious results of hiring 54 
more faculty that students saw. Smaller class sizes and increased course offerings quietly 
announced the trend toward a broader education. Anne McKern

Registration line panic!

Each semester the time comes when you hear countless sighs of frustation. Students gossip with 
other students of the same academic semester and final digit of the social security number. 
Students stand in seemingly endless lines, waiting their turn.

Restlessness.

Finally, it is your turn. With sweaty hands, you give your paper to the lady who sits behind a 
computer. You feel as though your heartbeat can be heard from one end of the hall to the 
other.

Then she says the four words you heard the night before in a nightmare.
"This class is closed." Registration panic!

Many students can recall those long waits to get into classes only to find out they were closed.

"One time I waited about 45 minutes," junior Nathan Mozingo said. "The line was really long. I 
had to yellow-card into classes my first semester of school."

This painstaking necessity is one every student had to experience. It began by setting up an 
appointment with your adviser and ended in the lengthy corrider. But not every student would 
experience the long lines in the future.

The University planned to use telephone registration by the academic year 1990. The touch tone 
registration would allow students to avoid waiting in lines and still register for classes using the 
mainframe computer system.

"I think students will like the new way of registering because it's more flexible with time," Nancy 
Weber, Assistant to the Dean of Admissions and Records said.

The new system had an estimated cost of $25,000. This amount included the computer, disk 
drive and software necessary to implement telephone registration.

Weber said touch tone registration had worked well at both large and small colleges. She felt 
students would be able to easily adapt to the system.

"Our students are computer oriented and they won't be afraid of using telephone registration," 
Weber said.

Students thought the new system sounded practical and would help
cushion the previous stress of registration.

"Standing in line is a waste of time," freshman Dana Rehwinkel said. "It's tiresome to keep going 
through to get classes that end up closed. The new system seems much more sensible."

Senior Phil McIntosh would not be able to benefit from the new system, but he felt telephone 
registration would help future students and employees in the Registrar's Office.

"The best part about it is the registrar won't have to face angry and crabby students," McIntosh 
said.

However, McIntosh thought the new system could create new problems if implemented.

"I can't imagine there would be enough lines to accommodate everybody that needs to 
register," he said.

If the new system lives up to its planned potential, students could be more comfortable with 
registration. Telephone registration would make long lines and registration panic a frustration of 
the past.

Advisers get student help

According to the 1988 Graduating Student Questionnaire, students have been more satisfied 
with their advisers every year for two years. But students continued to question the counseling 
ability of advisers.

"The advisers frankly just don't know what they're supposed to be doing to advise their 
students," junior Joy Lain said.

The results of the questionnaire revealed the best ratings came from the chemistry discipline 
within the science division. On a scale of one (lowest) to four (highest) the advising program 
received a 2.20 rating in 1987. Until then the level of student satisfaction with the advising 
program had been steadily dropping since 1981.

Darrell Krueger, Vice President for Academic Affairs, and Dean of Instruction, believed the drop 
resulted from Northeast becoming more rigorous and the students having higher expectations. 
Krueger found encouragement in the rise in the mean.

"This is the first year, in years and years, that advising was up," Krueger said. "We've turned the 
comer on advising."

The Student-Adviser Relations Committee (SARC) began in 1988 to combat advising problems. 
Senior Leigh Klinginsmith, who helped form the committee, said the University needed to take 
steps to help alleviate the advising situation.

"Too many advisers were involved in too many things and could not adequately keep up with 
the changing programs," Klinginsmith said."

Conflict blocks building

Students voted two to one against a proposed Multi-Purpose Building and the Board of 
Governers voted Dec. 2, 1988 to postpone plans indefinitely.

The building, to be located behind Centennial Hall, would have had two basketball/volleyball 
courts, a track, a weight room and a lounge. A $2 million bond would have paid for the building, 
which would cost $150,000-$200,000 annually to maintain.

"This would be a smaller Pershing with a lounge," Jay Ping, sophomore Student Senate 
representative, said.

Several students opposed the metal structure of the building.

"The building should be brick," sophomore Mark Westmeyer said. "Part of the reason I came 
here was because the campus looked nice. The building wouldn't fit in."

Other students opposed the building and said Pershing fit their recreational needs.

"We didn't need the building because Pershing was satisfactory," sophomore John Baker said. 
"I've never had any problem with it. If they wanted to make something for the students, they 
could make a new Student Union."

Senior Bill King said Pershing Arena was often inconvenient. "I think the students need 
somewhere to go where they don't have to compete with varsity sports."

Student Senate surveyed student opinion after the Board discussed architectural plans at the 
Oct. 7 meeting. Students expressed attitudes through a random sample of 1,000 students and a 
yes-no referendom for the student body.

Other options for the money, from a list of campus improvments, included an all weather track 
at Stokes Stadium, remodeling the Snack Bar in the Student Union Building and a sidewalk 
across the Quad. The Board voted to investigate the other options and stop plans for 
construction.

"There was a need for recreational areas for student use. Pershing didn't always provide that. 
During home basketball games, the racquetball courts were closed for security reasons," Sam 
Lesseig, acting athletic director, said.

"I think the multipurpose building was a good idea, but I didn't think the plan that is currently 
proposed was really what we wanted. If we have a building it should be something that can be 
used for a multitude of purposes. The plan we have now is really limited. I would like to see 
improvements around campus," Angela Kern, senior, said.

"I think it 's a waste of money because we have already got facilities in Pershing and Kirk. I think 
we could use the money somewhere else. I understand that they have to use the money, but I 
think it's a waste plus they are going to lose all of that parking space," Mike Taylor, junior, said.

Issues cleared up for election class

Missourian Dick Gephardt lost in the primaries but the fervor highlighting the race of the year 
continued. The presidential election served as one of the most popular topics of discussion on 
campus for more than one year.

In addition to College Republican and Young Democrat campaign activities, there was even a 
class called "Elections '88". The political science course taught by Dr. Jim Przybylski, associate 
professor of Social Science, analyzed and critiqued national and local campaigns and candidates.

"We tried to analyze what went on in the elections, and what the election meant," Przybylski 
said. "We also discussed electoral behavior and what worked and what didn't in various 
campaigns."

The Social Science division offered the three-hour elective class every four years to any 
interested students. There were no prerequisites.

Most students took the class to understand the election process better. "I thought it would be a 
good opportunity to experience in depth the elections and the activities surrounding them," 
sophomore Amy Bocklage said.

Przybylski had several goals for the class. "I wanted them to be able to look at an election and 
understand how the process works," Przybylski said.

Przybylski and Bocklage both felt the class was enjoyable because it was a forum for different 
views. "The most interesting thing I've learned is to appreciate how strongly people on both 
sides feel," Bocklage said. "I now have an appreciation of the different reasons people have for 
supporting different candidates."

Race triggers interest

George Bush and Dan Quayle won, but Michael Dukakis and Lloyd Bentsen continued 
campaigning until the close of Campaign '88.

For many students, the election meant voting for the first time. To gain a better understanding 
of the parties, the candidates and the issues involved, students joined campus political 
organizations and explored the campaign and electoral process in their classes.

Senior Ronee Collins said she paid attention to the election because it was her first time to vote.

"This is my first general election and I've been more aware of it and my friends' stances; how 
they're voting and whether they're participating or not," Collins said.

Students who joined the College Republicans were able to attend their party's state and national 
conventions, rallies, debates and participate in "bumper blitz," handing out bumper stickers.

Members of the Young Democrats helped to coordinate state and national races, campaigned 
door-to-door and worked for the democratic campaigns in their spare time.

Debates between the two organizations included discussions on economics, foreign policy and 
domestic issues. Junior Brad Mehrtens of the College Republicans said work by the political 
parties did not cultivate many votes.

"On campus it only affected the ones who were interested in it to begin with," Mehrtens said, 
"Neither group reached anyone they would not have anyway,"

"The common enemy of both parties is apathy," senior Dave Crawford, president of the Young 
Democrats said. "Students should get involved and have a voice in which way the country 
should go."

Students in the Information Society class studied the election in a different way. They predicted 
which candidate would lose the 1988 Presidential race, discussed the influence of the media on 
both parties' campaigns and suggested ways in which the candidates could have improved their 
performance during their campaigns.

Because students kept well-informed of the candidates and the campaigns and because they 
knew the effects that an election has on society, students were able to state their opinions by 
voting for the candidate they thought to be the best choice.

Candidate for district representative, Katie Steele, calls to encourage voting. In the early stages 
of the campaign Steele campaigned for presidential candidate Dick Gephardt (D) from Missouri.

(Page 23)

Tradition includes change

As the University continued to progress, changes were made within the current administrative 
body. On July 1, Dean of Instruction Darrell Krueger and Dean of Students Terry Smith gained 
additional titles and responsibilities, and two new people were named deans within the 
administration. The changes were suggested and approved by the Board of Governors in May 
1988 during a closed session.

Krueger's new title became Vice President for Academic Affairs and Dean of Instruction. He 
continued to work closely with faculty committees responsible for the academic policies, but his 
new position focused primarily on the graduate programs.

Krueger said working with the graduate dean was informal before his title change, and after the 
change the work was on an even more personal basis. Krueger did not feel he had any extra 
responsibilities with his new title and said that the title change was simply a formality.

Dean of Students Terry Smith became the Dean of Residential Colleges in addition to his former 
duties as Dean of Students. Smith worked closely with residence life, as well as with the new 
residential college programs. He also worked with the residential college professors, giving them 
guidance and support in their first year of working in the residential colleges.

Another administrative change was the appointment of Dr. Susan Shoaff as the Associate Dean 
of Graduate Studies, replacing Ruth Towne. Shoaff began teaching here in 1980 and became an 
associate professor of art. Her new duties involved coordinating and administering the graduate 
program.

Kathy Rieck, the executive assistant to the president, became the new Dean of Admissions and

University gets bytes

The computer network implemented in the Language and Literature Division brought 
prominence to both the department, its instructors and students. "The potential of this system 
is phenomenal," Edwin Carpenter, language and literature division head, said.

Dr. Carpenter said the system will allow both students and faculty more flexibility than 
selfstanding computers. The network allows faculty members to access data bases across 
campus. Faculty are able to access students' files, correct assignments and assign grades.

"There will be a time when no papers actually have to change hands," Carpenter said. "The 
faculty will also be able to send electronic mail to each other."

Faculty will soon be able to type in, edit and read the mail off the computer.

According to Heinz Woehlk, associate professor of English, the network has advantages for 
students as well as faculty. Woehlk said that the computer center is more efficient. A reason for 
this is with the network, all of the computers will have access to a printer. In the past, only 
certain computers could access printers.

The network offers flexibility by allowing more than one word processing program to be used. 
The division officially supports Horton's Textra word processing program; although PC-Write is 
accessible as well. According to Rick Watson, student manager of the computer center, Textra 
workshops will be offered at the beginning of the year.

An additional advantage is the new reflex/ spread sheet program that allows the ability to 
record students' grades on computer.

The network also permits writing in foreign languages. "One good thing about the network is 
that I can now use accents," Ruth Bradshaw, instructor of French said.

According to Carpenter, network completion was anticipated before the start of the academic 
year, but unforseen problems kept the network from functioning at its full capacity.

"Most of the problems have stemmed from trying to implement programs that individual faculty 
members have requested. Integrating new programs takes time," Woehlk said.

Approximately 81 IBM system/2 (model 25) computers were purchased for the department. 
They replaced IBM PC jrs and Zenith computers. Some faculty kept the Zenith computers. The 
old computers were re-distributed by computer services.

A world wise education

Traveling overseas during the summer may be a dream for many, but for 10 faculty members it 
became a reality. A special grant program awarded up to $1,500 for each faculty member to 
travel to benefit them and accomplish the University's mission.

In its third year, the grant program was funded through state appropriations and school tuition, 
and then approved by Dean of Instruction, Darrell Krueger.

"We wanted a faculty with more international experience that would be able to speak with 
more authority on foreign affairs," Krueger said.

Through the grant program, Associate Professor of German, Dr. Gregory Richter, traveled to 
Finland last summer. The language was different than he expected.

"I discovered that young people in Finland speak a type of slang," Richter said. "It is comprised 
of about 50 percent English and 50 percent Finnish. It is considered 'cool' to speak English -- you 
are a citizen of the world."

Eric Binnie, instructor of Fine Arts, went to Northern Ireland. He researched theater troupes and 
spoke with them about their intentions and public response to their works. He was specifically 
involved in political theater. He brought his learning experience with recent Irish plays home 
with him. He directed that knowledge toward the teaching of his acting classes.

Dr. Gary Sells, selection committee chairman, said the university hoped to extend the liberal arts 
mission beyond the walls of the university.

As a part of the grant program, faculty members were required to write a summary of their 
experience. Many faculty members have dreamt of trips overseas, and the University made 
those dreams a reality for some instructors.

Follow-up correspondence for his summer research grant occupies time in the office for Dr. 
Roger Cody. Cody traveled through rural China to learn about the native music and dress.

Professor assists Chinese musicians

Roger Cody, professor of music, spent August 1988 traveling through rural China learning about 
the native music and dress. Cody flew to China with other music educators at the invitation of 
the Chinese government and returned with a new view of the Far East.

While in China, Cody assisted the Chinese efforts to preserve the music of the country's 55 
minority groups.

"The Chinese folk music we heard was nothing like what we hear on television," Cody said. "I 
was unprepared for it."

The trip had an effect on Cody and changed the way he taught and related to people at the 
University, especially foreign exchange students. Cody also became more open-minded about 
styles of music since he has been exposed to those of the Chinese culture.

"Definitely one of the most memorable times was our arrival into Beijing," Cody said. "Upon 
landing, our first encounter was with a man dressed in a uniform carrying a machine gun and 
yelling at us. We looked at each other and wondered what we had gotten ourselves into."

The more he traveled, the more Cody realized that the government's invitation was a cry for 
help to preserve the authentic folk music that revealed much of the culture's qualities.

The Chinese use their voices as well as their instruments to produce various constructions of the 
musical scales.

Cody said his trip changed his outlook and helped him see another culture. "I would go back 
tomorrow if I had the chance," he said.

Mastering new missions

The football game hits a slow spot and fans become restless. Students from other universities 
might take this opportunity to chant the school's initials, cheer about the school mascot or yell 
obscenities at the other team.

Students at northeast do all the same things -- except for one cheer other schools will never 
catch on to.

Value-added, value-added, value-added. This concept had such an influence on students that no 
one thought twice about yelling the words just like it was a cheer for the school mascot.

Value-added, the assessment program (freshman, sophomore and senior tests in addition to 
postgraduate tracking) designed to enhance academic quality, provided a key phrase for 
students to identify with the University's larger mission.

The liberal arts and sciences mission came into focus in January 1986. Designation as The Liberal 
Arts and Sciences University of the state of Missouri meant a continuously increasing emphasis 
on academics. Plans to achieve institutional goals culminated in the Five-Year Planning 
Document.

The first year report of the progress toward achieving the goals set forth in the Five-Year 
Planning Document was published in November and presented to the Board of Governors for 
approval.

One of the most immediate results of implementation became obvious to students whose 
academic majors were discontinued or were being phased out. As a result, even programs that 
remained identical in title under both the old program and new mission embodied a new liberal 
arts and sciences emphasis.

The Education Division changed to a five-year Master's program instead of continuing the basic 
four-year degree. According to junior Kristine M. Schneider, the positive side of the program 
included receiving both an undergraduate and graduate degree at the same institution. 
However, the negative aspect came into view when the graduate went out into the working 
world. With only one year of teaching experience, students feared they may not have enough 
practical experience and would be looked down upon by future employers.

"It seemed like a good idea at the time I chose it," Schneider said. "You get your Master's right 
away which means more money when you look for a job, but you only have one year of practical 
experience."

The junior class of 1989 (class of 1990) had a choice between the old program and the new 
program with its increased emphasis on liberal arts and sciences. Juniors had a choice of which 
education degree to pursue, but like other majors, the courses for the old program were not 
always available and substitutions had to be made. For fiscal year 1988, 436 students were still 
pursuing degrees in phased out programs.

Several of the goals for the Five Year Planning Document were running ahead of schedule. 
Targeted percentage outcomes exceeded the numbers proposed for 1988 in ACT scores, high 
school rank and the Graduating Student Questionnaire. In other words, the statistics showed a 
successful first year and were encouraging signs for the next four years.

Despite increasing media hype and administrative enthusiasm, not all students were sold on the 
ideas of the new mission. Junior Becke Cook stayed with the old program for practical reasons.

"I felt that in the four-year plan I would get more practical experience," Cooke said. "You need 
at least a 3.0 to even qualify so you could end up, after four years, not being able to complete 
the program. I'm going to graduate and start teaching and then go back and get my Master's."

Whether or not students supported the changes, the impact and awareness of the new mission 
could be seen across campus, even at football games where the chant, "Value Added, Value 
Added" echoed through the stands.

open lab for cutting in class. Photography, drafting and other industrial classes were phased out 
to help the University meet its liberal arts goals.

THE GUTHRIE THEATER

Creature animated; Master driven mad

Baldwin Mall Auditorium roared with a thunder of applause during a standing ovation for the 
Guthrie Theater's performance of "Frankenstein."

Playwright Barbara Field, commissioned by the Guthrie Theater to interpret Mary Shelly's novel, 
created "Frankenstein: Playing With Fire." While writing this script, Field became fascinated by 
the notion that a person could create a child and then refuse to take responsiblity for it.

The play centered around two characters, the Creature and Dr. Frankenstein and their 
confrontation. During their encounter, the two questioned the emotional and symbolic bond 
they shared. The set depicted the North Pole and scenes from flashbacks by both the Creature 
and Dr. Frankenstein.

"I was confused at certain parts of the play because it was difficult to determine which scenes 
were flashbacks and which scenes were not," freshman Lisa Condra said. "Overall, though, I 
thought it was a good production with fine acting and unique scenery."

Field, Director Michael Maggio and Scene Designer John Arnone did not want the Creature to 
present an image of terror. The image of the creature is "the beautiful horror in human form," 
Arnone said in a Guthrie press release. The creature had large muscles, heavy make up, scraggly 
hair and was nearly nude. However, the Creature had no blemishes to mar the perfection of his 
form.

"The creature is Frankenstein's doppelganger (alter ego)," Field said. "But he uses it as if it were 
a machine, taking no moral responsibility for it. Suddenly he realizes that the creature has 
become stronger, smarter and more moral than he is, something much larger than its creator."

Freshman Toni Prince said she had a positive opinion of the play after seeing the production.

"What I came to the conclusion of, is that the monster was actually a part of Frankenstein 
himself that he did not want to realize was there, that's why he kept pushing away," she said.

"Frankenstein is as huge and deep as Shakespeare, and, like his plays, one would like to return 
to it at various points in a career to try it again," Arnone said. "It's like a touchstone. I think all of 
us now have two or three other Frankenstein' productions in our heads now that we'd like to try 
sometime. The material is vast, just endless."

The Theater signed a $10,800 contract to perform one year ago. The show was sponsored by the 
Lyceum Committee and by the Mid-American Arts Alliance Program which paid $2,700 of the 
total amount.

MAYA ANGELOU

Speaker touts higher education

Better late than never -- that's how to describe the Lyceum Series presentation of Maya 
Angelou. Because of personal reasons, the speaker arrived one week later than scheduled. 
Angelou, a renowned author and poet, lectured and recited some of her works in Baldwin Hall 
as the first event of the 1988-89 Lyceum Series.

"Maya was a very determined and couragous woman who wanted to pass her knowledge on to 
help others learn," freshman Larry Weber said. "She created an evening that was enjoyable for 
all."

Angelou began the lecture by explaining the correlation between freedom and literature, and 
stressed the importance of freedom in education.

"Freedom is more precious than air, more palpable than bread. It is real, and necessary for all of 
us. And when it is automatic, we will know what it is," Angelou said.

Angelou spoke of her Uncle Willie, who forced her to learn to read and memorize her times 
tables when she was young. To do this, he held her hair in front of the stove. His influence on 
her life later inspired her to write a song about him.

"Each of us had the possibility and probability of being a Willie -- of teaching others to want to 
learn," she said. "When you have enough courage to know something, give it away."

In addition to her most notable work, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, Angelou appeared in 
"Roots," the television miniseries based on the novel written by Alex Haley.

Angelou concluded her hour-long lecture with a challenge: "Read. The charge is upon you to 
make this country better; and the only way to do it is through education. Don't take it for 
granted."

After her lecture, Angelou attended a reception held in her honor at Ryle Hall.

Angelou captivates the audience with stories of her childhood. The renowned author and poet 
recited several of her works.

NEBRASKA THEATRE CARAVAN

British comedy hits Missouri Campus

When news first arrived in April 1988 that "Tom Jones" would be the Lyceum Series 
replacement for Vincent Price, who canceled his scheduled appearance for health reasons, some 
people thought the Lyceum committee had contracted a popular Las Vegas nightclub act.

Much to their surprise, the Nebraska Theatre Caravan presented a whimsical, entertaining spoof 
of 18th century England, based on the novel written in 1749 by Henry Fielding. The production 
was presented April 24 in Baldwin Hall Auditorium.

"I preferred it to Vincent Price because he's here every year, and this is something you usually 
don't get to see," freshman Doug Erwin said.

The plot of the play was about a young abandoned foundling, Tom Jones, who was not allowed 
to marry his true love, Sophia Western, because of his unknown parentage. Jones left 
Somersetshire, where the story originated, and went to London in order to forget Sophia. The 
rest of the story told of Jones' adventures during his travels. The story ended when Jones 
learned of his parentage and received permission to marry Sophia.

The play was highlighted by its colorful characterization. This was particularly seen in Partridge, 
the narrator, and in Blifil, Jones' prudish, prissy and very annoying cousin, portrayed by Brendan 
Kelly.

"It's kind of fun to be annoying. As long as it's done with an understanding, it's fun," Kelly said. 
"It gives you a great opportunity to invent and indulge yourself as an actor."

Student response to the production was positive.

"I thought (the acting) was very suitable for the production," freshman Brenda Volker said. "It 
was exaggerated and the production called for that. I enjoyed it, especially all of the innuendos."

Likewise, the actors' opinion of the audience was positive.

"They were much more responsive than some of our other audiences," said Charlie Bachmann, 
who played Squire Allworthy.

The Nebraska Theatre Caravan began in 1976 as a 12-week project of the Omaha Community 
Playhouse, the largest community theater in the nation. The caravan consists of 14 members, 
many of whom have done extensive study in theater or the fine arts. The caravan has been 
selected four times as one of the 16 outstanding companies for youth in North America.

KANSAS CITY LYRIC OPERA

Girl lures pauper in a romantic battle

A classic yet simplistic story line, English lyrics and only two scene changes combined to create 
Donizetti's "Daughter of the Regiment."

The second presentation of the 1988-1989 Lyceum Series brought the Kansas City Lyric Opera to 
perform Donizetti's "Daughter of the Regiment". For some students, the presentation became 
their first experience with an opera.

"It was my first opera," freshman Kevin Leonhardt said. "It was interesting and better than I 
thought it would be."

The plot describes a young couple in love. The story centers around Marie, a girl abandoned to a 
French regiment as a baby. She falls in love with a peasant, Tonio. Marie defends Tonio in front 
of regiment members after his capture. To prove to them he is worthy of marrying Marie, Tonio 
joins the regiment. Plans change when Marie's long lost aunt, the Marquise of Berkenfield, takes 
Marie back to her chateau. Marie's aunt arranges a marriage for an unwilling Marie to a rich 
German prince. To her surprise, the regiment, led by Tonio, comes to rescue her.

The story ends with the disclosure of the identity of Marie's mother. She is the Marquise of 
Berkenfield. Marie's new mother allows her to marry the man of her choice. As the opera ends, 
Marie and Tonio prepare to wed.

Although some students found the plot shallow, others enjoyed the drama. "I thought it was an 
exciting piece of musical drama, "junior Jim Rhodes said. "I wish the University would bring 
more things like the opera to campus."

Marie and the Marquise rehearse scales to impress their guests. Later in the scene, the 
Marquise hid behind her sheet music when she could not control her laughter.

Although the Marquise arranged a marriage for her niece, Marie, she finally retented and 
allowed true love to take its course. Marie and Tonio would finally be married.

Marie uses her voice on the battlefield to entertain the soldiers she considers her father's. The 
songs in the opera were performed in English rather than the original German.

The Marquise of Berkenfeld reveals to Sulpice that she is Marie's mother. Sulpice, sergeant of 
the French regiment, raised Marie until the Marquise appeared and claimed she was Marie's 
aunt.

GEORGE MCGOVERN

McGovern stores need for progress

The Lyceum Series sponsored two politically oriented speakers in keeping with the election year 
theme. Sen. George McGovern offered a liberal viewpoint.

McGovern greeted the audience and recounted the first time he came to Missouri. He made 
light of his run on the Democratic ticket in 1972 in which he lost 49 out of 50 states to Richard 
Nixon. McGovern joked about the way Republicans found liberals wonderful only after they 
were dead.

McGovern believed liberals were the key to a strong government, and said America urgently 
needed a strong liberal party.

McGovern compared his election to that of the current year's. He said the main problems in 
government were the national debt and the Iran-Contra Scandal.

"Illegal means have no place in a democracy," McGovern said.

McGovern criticized the covert actions of the government and praised the value of history. He 
said the most important thing in voting was to elect a constitutional president, one who would 
uphold the laws of the Constitution.

McGovern was the second half of a Lyceum package that included William F. Buckley. The idea 
behind this was to compare and contrast McGovern's "liberal" views with Buckley's 
"conservative" ones. Overall, students seemed to prefer McGovern.

"McGovern was more personable and had more candor," freshman Mike Schaefer said. 
"McGovern centered more on ideology. Buckley seemed to enjoy slamming the candidates."
Freshman Dave Van Domelen agreed.

"Buckley was more negative and put down liberals," Van Domelen said. "McGovern was more 
positive."

Kirksville resident Glen Leer had a positive opinion of both speakers.

"Both were intellectual and responded appropriately," Leer said.

Both of the Lyceum-sponsored speakers had large turnouts, re-sounding the political interest on 
campus during this election year.

WILLIAM F BUCKLEY

Buckley challenges liberalists' views

It is not often that a person carries a variety of titles and wide range of accomplishments. But 
William F. Buckley Jr. is such a person. Buckley visited campus Oct. 20 to share his "Reflections 
on Current Contentions," as part of the Lyceum Series. He spoke to a crowd in Baldwin 
Auditorium and received mixed reactions. Buckley attended a reception after the presentation 
in the Student Union Building.

Buckley was chosen for Lyceum series with the election year in mind. The committee decided to 
sponsor two politically-oriented speakers: Buckley as a conservative and Sen. George McGovern 
as a liberal, according to Gilbert Kohlenberg, Lyceum Series Committee chairman.

Dave Crawford, president of Young Democrats, saw Buckley as a savvy speaker, but offered 
some criticism.

"Buckley is a dangerous speaker because he uses his eloquence to persuade those who are not 
very informed to accept his views and not question them," Crawford said, "He presents his 
views in a pompous manner, making those who do not agree with him seem unintelligent, and 
that is just not the case."

In contrast, Tim Wichmer, president of College Republicans, thought Buckley was a genius.

"He is the intellectual founder of the conservative movement," Wichmer said.

Buckley was named top public speaker in his field by the International Platform Association and 
awarded the Ralph Waldo Emerson Award in 1983. He has written a variety of books- 
autobiographical, philosophical, Fictional and juvenile. Buckley was editor and founder of 
"National Review," a conservative journal in 1955. His syndicated column "On the Right" 
appeared three times a week in more than 300 newspapers worldwide.

Buckley once hosted "Firing Line" which won both an Emmy and TV Guide award for the Best 
Television Interviewer. Graduating with honors from Yale University, Buckley holds more than 
20 honorary doctorates.

Buckley has accomplished more in one lifetime than most people dream of.

NEBRASKA THEATRE CARAVAN

Spirit of Christmas haunts Baldwin Hall

Shopkeepers and last-minute shoppers crowded a narrow London street on Christmas Eve, 
1886. A standing-room-only audience expressed an "oooh" of appreciation for the scene before 
them as the curtain parted to reveal Baldwin Auditorium's stage transformed.

The Nebraska Theatre Caravan performed a stage musical adaptation of Charles Dickens' "A 
Christmas Carol" on Nov. 19, 1988. The cast and crew of 36 returned after performing the same 
production in November, 1985.

Although students were familiar with the story, tickets sold out three days early. Senior Debbie 
Huls saw the '85 performance and said the '88 version was about the same but still enjoyable. "I 
thought it was very touching, very emotional," Huls said. "No matter how many times you saw 
it, it was still interesting."

Students also thought the cast performed well without acting mechanically. "The cast seemed 
willing to perform and happy with the audience," Sophomore Christine Schneider said. "They 
could perform the same play over and over again without projecting a ho-hum attitude."

The two acts included 13 scenes and seven different settings. The sets, properties and 200 
costumes added to the Christmas atmosphere. The Ghost of Christmas Past led Scrooge to an 
1845 holiday celebration complete with sparklers and bright dresses in red and green.

Schneider said the scenery looked very elaborate for a traveling theater. More than 60 pounds 
of dry ice ushered in the Ghost of Christmas Present. The gaunt apparition offered a contrast to 
the red velvet and white fur adorning the Ghost of Christmas Past.

The Ghost of Christmas Future appeared as a 16-foot human puppet. The set also included 
Scrooge's bed moving in circles around the stage. "I'm into sets and how they work," senior 
James Robinson said, "I thought it was really interesting that the bed (in Scrooge's bedchamber) 
was moved by people."

Traditional music complemented an authentic set. A clarinet, bassoon, flute and piano 
accompanied the carols sung by the cast. Little Boy Blue and Little Bo Peep danced to the music. 
The two performers represented dolls from the toy store.

"They looked real and seemed stiff when they weren't moving, but when they started dancing, 
the dolls lost some of the effect," Robinson, said.

The Bah Humbug atmosphere of the first act swiftly changed into one of generosity as Scrooge's 
attitude reversed in the second act. Young Tim Cratchit charmed the audience as he shouted the 
last line, "God bless us, everyone."

The final scene in the Cratchit home involved the entire cast as the crowd responded with a 
standing ovation.

Unique group gives dance performance

The legendary spirit of the King of Rock and Roll could not be ignored in "The King's Quintet" 
performed by the In Motion Dance Company.

The contemporary dance ensemble, based in St. Louis, performed before a full house January 26 
in Baldwin Hall Auditorium. The dance revue entertained the audience with routines 
choreographed to classical and contemporary music.

Satori Shimazaki, an accomplished choreographer and performer from Hew York, served as In 
Motion's guest artist. He performed "Days of Grace" and "The Seasons" with slow deliberate 
movements, filled with intense stage presence.

Each number told a story through the performer's movements. "Moving Forces," involving five 
members of the cast, illustrated the creation of the world. The dance portrayed the kinetic 
movements of earth, air, water and fire. Background sets included a glowing sun and ocean 
waves.

Another number, "Sudden Times," formed emotional symbolism and meaning. Two dancers 
portrayed the cycle of siblings from birth until death.

"Fabrications," a number that incorporated a parachute as a prop, displayed how shapes can be 
perceived. Dancer Ruthe Ponturo captivated the audience with a parachute as she transformed 
humorous yet haunting shapes to a vivid imagination.

Finally, a renditon of early Elvis Presley hits formed the basis of "The King's Quintet." This 
number featured the songs "It's How or Never," "Hard Headed Woman" and "Jailhouse Rock." 
Wearing reminiscent costumes of the 1950s, the dancers moved energetically and the audience 
clapped to the beat of "Jailhouse Rock."

"I really liked the 'King's Quintet' because it's my kind of music," sophomore Cathy Kramer said.

In addition to their performance, the company sponsored a master dance class for students. 
Assistant Professor of Dramatics Al Srnka organized the class.

"They gave a really good workshop that helped me in the understanding of their performance," 
freshman Jennifer Imparl said. "I learned it's just a different style of dance.

ALBERT MCNEIL SINGERS

Afro-American style expressed in song

"He's got the Whole World in His Hands," but He drew a smaller than usual crowd as the Albert 
McNeil Jubilee Singers performed on Feb. 1 in Baldwin Hall Auditorium.

"The crowd was smaller but there was a fair representation of the student body," Dwayne 
Smith, coordinator of minority services, said.

Founder and director Albert McNeil and his Los Angeles-based company of 14 singers featured a 
repertoire drawn from the tribal music of the earliest slaves to the spiritual, gospel and jazz 
music of the current era.

McNeil headed the Department of Music Education at the University of California-Davis, which 
trained music teachers. He also taught a course on Afro-American music. The Singers also 
recorded the sound tracks for films such as "Oh Freedom," "Porgy" and "Cabin in the Sky." Their 
historical music could be traced to American history.

The roots of the Jubilee Singers s date back more than 100 years to the Emancipation 
Proclamation of January 1863. The group celebrated it "Jubilee Year" by playing to audiences 
around the world. The singers toured Europe, Africa, and the Middle East in addition to the 
numerous dates they performed in the United States.

Smith said listening to the group provided a learning experience for students.
"Students were able to see another alternative style of music, a style they may never get the 
chance to see again," Smith said.

Some students gained more from the concert than exposure to a new style of music. Senior 
James Tolson said the performance reminded him of home.

"Back home in church, ladies would bring tamborines, everyone would get up and sing," Tolson 
said.

The different music style may have reminded one student of home but the Albert McNeil Jubilee 
Singers created an even more important overall feeling of unity.

"It was different because Albert McNeil was so personable with the audience," junior Anna 
Zimmerman said. "He made you feel included if you were either black or white."

SAINT LOUIS SYMPHONY

Elements of style jazz up concert

A man dressed in a tuxedo, armed with only a small stick, stood silently before his troops. He 
raised his arms and the troops prepared for attack. The stick came down, the troops followed 
the signal, and the troops attacked their instruments with full force.

The troops consisted of the 125 members of the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra. They performed 
their 24th Lyceum Series concert on Feb. 14 in Baldwin Auditorium.
Kirk Muspratt, assistant conductor of the orchestra, led the symphony during their three-piece 
repertoire.

The first work, "Lions (A Dream)," by Ned Rorem, combined contemporary style with a small jazz 
ensemble.

Rorem described his inspiration for "Lions (A Dream)" in an essay he wrote about the piece.

In a dream, he plays with lion cubs, but falls victim to their father and dies, "aware of purrs, of 
blues receding, (and of) innocence dimmed."

The second piece, "Symphony No. 2, 'Romantic'" by Howard Hanson, followed a traditional 
format. Hanson also described his work in an essay.

"My aim in this symphony has been to create a work young in spirit, romantic in temperament 
and simple and direct in expression," Hanson wrote.

Modest Mussorgsky's classic, "Pictures at an Exhibition," finished the concert. Mussorgsky wrote 
the piece as a tribute to an art exhibition of Viktor Hartman. The ten movements each described 
a work in the exhibit. The most widely known movement, "The Great Gate at Kiev," captured the 
spirit of Hartman's painting of the ancient Gate of the Bogatyrs.

Richard Freed, a symphonic interpreter, wrote of Mussorgsky's meaning in this movement as 
imagining a "phantom chorus singing a hymn of praise to the glorious heroes of times long 
past."

The orchestra finished with Brahms in response to a standing ovation.

Teddy Roosevelt once said, "Speak softly and carry a big stick." If he'd been listening to the 
symphony, he may have rephrased his quote to fit the scene: "Play loudly and watch the little 
stick."

Lara Runnels

Concentration and determination allow the St. Louis Symphony to present a polished 
performance. The symphony performed in the Lyceum Series for the 24th time.

Lady piano quartet gets four star rating

Silence filled Baldwin Auditorium Oct. 26 when the Amabile Piano Quartet took the stage as part 
of the Lyceum Series. The quartet featured Marian Mahn on piano, Diane Monroe on violin, 
Kathleen Mattis on viola and Lisa Landcaster on cello.

The musicians began their performance with three works composed by Beethoven followed by a 
sonata for the violin and piano.

The sonata expressed a feeling of nervousness and urgency. The pace picked up with a duet 
titled "with two eyeglasses obligato," for the viola and cello.

"They knew what they were doing and were proficient with their instruments," freshman Scott 
Bailey said. "They also showed a lot of expression while they were playing; they really got into 
the music."

After a brief intermission, the concert ended with four works by Gabriel Faure.

The quartet began slowly, but the finale left the 650 people in the audience feeling energetic. 
The pieces were dramatic, lively and full of energy, reflecting the musicians' accomplishments.

Hahn performed with a concert series across the United States and Europe and served on the 
piano faculty of the Peabody Conservatory.

Monroe won a Pro Musicis Foundation award and performed and toured major U.S. cities.

Mattis played Associate Principal Viola in the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra. She recorded 
chamber music for Vox and Laurel record labels and toured the U.S. and Europe.

Landcaster graduated from Julliard and toured the U.S. and Canada as a soloist and chamber 
musican.

The quartet cost $2,600. The University and the Missouri Arts Council split the cost

Crazed characters enact "Tuna" lives

Imagine the third smallest town in Texas -- "where the Lions club is too liberal and Pasty Cline 
never dies." Then picture the daily farm reports and advice radio and you will find yourself in 
Tuna, Texas, the setting for "Greater Tuna."

The Arkansas Repertory Theatre performed on Feb. 28 as part of the Lyceum Series. Radio 
personalities at the local station OKKK, Thurston Wellis, played by J.C. Mullins, and Arles Struvie, 
played by Terry Sneed, performed ten different characters in the town of Tuna including a dog, a 
reverend, a little boy and an old women.

Freshman Judd Weeks said he enjoyed the show to a point.

"I liked it, but there were too many dramatic pauses," Weeks said. "(One actor) took too much 
time while the other guy was changing his clothes."

The actor on stage stalled for the actor backstage by chasing after imaginary dogs or praying. 
The pauses were added to give the actors enough time to change characters, but the concept 
did not impress senior Trish Tyree.

"It was uninspiring, thoroughly unimpressive, and boring," Tyree said. "It had its moments but 
they were few and far between."

The original production in 1986 in Arkansas broke all box office records. The Kirksville audience 
did not quite break any box office records but the audience did respond to the laugh lines and 
some people found the comedy amusing.

"Right after the intermission there was a funeral scene where the actors were talking to the 
casket and thought that was really funny," sophomore Jay Parsons said.

Some students thought the plot did not make much sense. Senior Steve Schied said he could not 
follow the comedy.

"It's somewhat amusing when it could be heard," Schied said.

The actors had some problems with projection, and at times the middle of the theatre could not 
hear the performers. Although the play did not overwhelm the audience, the performance 
proved even small-town Kirksville can laugh at tiny Tuna, Texas.

Farm news gets top billing on the OKKK radio station. Radio personality Thurston Wheel is,

48 Student Life 
 
(Page 49)

Student Life

Annual events or just subtle daily occurences, they all made up a part of Student Life. Everything 
we came in contact with helped shape our lives and attitudes.

We decided what to do, where to live, how to make money, and how to spend money. Paying 
for tuition and food became necessary in college budgets, while entertainment required skillful 
money management.

Individualists became prominent, and students took part in protests as anti-abortion groups 
rallied their cause.

Traditional events arrived in the same manner, but with a different flair when a feline gathered 
the most votes for Dog Days queen, and Homecoming was shortened to five days.

These were the events that led to Student Life. How to deal with it -- Instructions Not Included.

Week lights up final days

Almost anything goes for Dog Days festivities

Almost anything went as "Roo" the cat received the title of honorary Dog Days queen.

The "Almost Anything Goes" theme allowed campus organizations to have more freedom to 
choose activities to sponsor. The week began on Friday, April 22, with the crowning of senior Joe 
Bantz as king and senior Angie Luby and junior Amy Reily tying for queen with "Roo" the cat. 
Student Senate President Denise Rendina was pleased with the number of organizations that 
participated during the week.

"This year, the difference was that we had so many different organizations participating, and 
even if only the members of those organizations participated in the events, it was still a lot more 
people (than the years before)," Rendina said.

Student Senate served free watermelon as a student appreciation activity. Other events 
included Battle of the Bands, and a rotten sneaker contest.

The Student Activities Board and Student Senate showed the Rocky Horror Picture Show. The 
showing again brought controversy.

"I was glad they brought the movie to campus, but 1 think they
should have prepared the students for the insanity involved," sophomore Steve Smolinski said. 
"The people who participated in the movie the way it is normally done, were ridiculed and 
thought of as being obnoxious."

SAB held a carnival Saturday on the Administration/Humanities Building parking lot at an 
approximate cost of $3,000. Davidson United Shows brought in carnival rides and campus 
organizations sponsored booths.

"It (the carnival) was a good idea to bring in something that required student participation," 
junior Angela Rem said. "Sometimes Dog Days tends to be redundant. The carnival was one of 
the ideas that turned out well."

Darcy Maile

Lights and action promote a festive mood on campus. The carnival brought rides to campus for 
the first time in three years. The carnival rides, located in front of A/H, were intended to arouse 
student interest.

Carnival rides and sunshine help Students enjoy a fun-filled Saturday afternoon. Campus 
organizations sponsored booths for the event.

Pomp and Superstition

Stereotyped day fails to spoil graduates fate

For most people, Friday the 13th is a day for suspicion, fear, and bad luck. But instead of walking 
under a ladder, graduates walked across campus in the traditional procession.

The march past library construction, the laying of the wreath in front of Joseph Baldwin's statue, 
and the walk along new brick sidewalks bordering the parking lots led to a different walk of life. 
Spring graduates officially received their degrees on Friday, May 13 and Summer graduates 
received theirs on August 12.

Juanita Kreps, former U.S. Secretary of Commerce, delivered the spring address. Kreps was the 
first woman as well as first economist to serve in a cabinet position.

Butterflies and a whale escort seniors as they proceed toward spring commencement. 
Graduates flaunted their personalities with mortar board signs, pets and jam shorts.

"Kreps seemed really intelligent; her speech was very encouraging to the graduates," 
sophomore Amy Heavrin said. "I was impressed by what she said, but it seemed to me that the 
graduates just wanted to get out of there."

Earl Dille, President of Union Electric, gave the keynote speech as summer graduates awaited 
their turn in the spotlight.

"I was so excited to have finally reached this point in life," graduate Wanda Stone said. "I just 
wish I knew where to go from here."

Remembering the days of finals, studying until morning and parties, graduates walked away 
with hopes and fears for the future.

"I know I am going to miss NMSU," spring graduate Brenda Froisland said. "I know I'll have to 
move on, but I'll never forget the great times I have had here in the last four years."

Hugs, tears, goodbyes and laughter, expressed the emotion of completing a four, five, or six year 
goal.

"I thought graduation would be solemn, that graduation would be very formal, but the 
graduates were unorganized, they were just happy and celebrating the end of their 
(undergraduate) education," Heavrin said.

Colors reign victorious

Olympic theme offers homecoming a touch of gold

Students at NMSU caught the Olympic spirit by celebrating Homecoming 88, "The Color of 
Victory." The Wacky Olympics kicked off Homecoming Week Oct. 5-9.

The race for the gold began as many campus organizations competed in a variety of events: Raft 
Races, Human Sundae and Toilet Paper Relay. However, the Wacky Olympics were not the only 
events held during the week. Tuesday, students watched the Elementary Education Club, Alpha 
Sigma Alpha, Sigma Sigma Sigma and Blanton/Nason Hall become finalists in the Homecoming 
Skit Contest.

Wednesday brought a Lip Sync Contest sponsored by K EU and Domino's Pizza. Disco and Do-
ops, better known as juniors Tim Albers, Dan Mulhearn, David Stefacek and sophomore Mike 
Bevelo, sang and danced their way to $150 in cash and pizza.

A tough and nasty game of powder puff football was a classic showdown between the Ryle Hall 
Ladies and the Centennial Hall Rowdies. During half-time, the Dobson Hall Boppers (male 
cheerleaders) entertained the crowd by performing a dance to the song "Crying" from the movie 
"Dirty Dancing." As the game resumed, the women played hard. Centennial Hall won 18-0.

The guys were skeptical of powder puff compared to "real" football, but admitted enjoying the 
game. Freshman Grant Barger and Sophomore Kris Dunne said the game was "packed with 
action," and liked the "bone-crushing plays."

Another competition, sponsored by the Accounting Club, featured a scavenger hunt for 
hundreds of obvious and obscure items.

To end the week on a comical note, northeast welcomed comedian Robert Klein. Klein's $15,000 
performance was sponsored by the Alumni Association. Klein made several humorous stabs at 
Value Added and other NMSU traditions. He continued by sharing grade school and college 
experiences, and recalled his days as a pre-med major. Klein said that as a society, "we set an 
amoral table." He used the political campaign, insurance companies and lawyers as examples.

"I thought it was interesting to hear him give a message in his performance," sophomore Frank 
Lorr said. "It was still funny, but it made you think."

Klein also performed some pieces from his albums, including impersonations of monks' 
Gregorian chants and celebrities. Sophomore Brenda Norris enjoyed the show.

"I thought it was cool, and I especially liked his impersonation of Gene Simmons."

David Clithero, of the Alumni Office, helped arrange Klein's visit. "I was very pleased with the 
entire evening," he said.

The highlight of the week was, of course, the football game. The Bulldogs took on Southeast 
Missouri State University (Cape Girardeau) and scalped the Indians 23-13.

Homecoming '88 ended with a dance, sponsored by the Student Activities Board. Students 
danced the night away to the band "Destiny."

The air hints of romance

Southern Pacific winds bring warmth to campus

A crowd filled Baldwin Auditorium Nov. 15 for the University Players' opening night 
performance of "South Pacific." The musical, adapted from James A. Michner's novel, TALES 
FROM THE SOUTH PACIFIC, featured nurses, sailors, marines, officers and natives of a South 
Pacific island during World War II.

The plot centered around Ensign Nellie Forbush, a young nurse, played by sophomore Sue 
Jackson, and her love interest, Emile de Becque, a wealthy older Frenchman, played by senior 
Kurt Schlanker.

The play began when Nellie Forbush proclaimed herself a "cockeyed optimist" and a "hick." She 
expressed an interest in the South Pacific islands to Emile. Later in the play, Nellie learned that 
Emile had two children he had not told her about, and she made a decision never to see him 
again. When Emile was sent on a dangerous mission, Nellie realized how much she loved him. 
Finally, Nellie, Emile and his children were brought together to become a family.

"This production was the best thing I'd ever been involved in," Jackson said. "It was fun to do 
and the audience seemed to have fun right along with us. Our practices were never really 
behind schedule. It was good, but it never came together until the opening night, and then it 
really clicked."

Some of the well-known songs in the musical included "Some Enchanted Evening," "I'm Gonna 
Wash That Man Right Out-A My Hair," and "Bali Ha'i."

"The plot of the musical was close to the movie, Linda Bottrell, so., said. "All the singing was 
excellent. It made me want to sing all the way home."

The production required many set changes for the different scenes. Some spectators 
commented on how professional the sets looked.

"The sets were better than other productions I have seen," Brad Mehrtens, so., said. "I thought 
that the performers themselves were the best part of the musical. They seemed to enjoy what 
they were doing. I knew they were really nervous on opening night, but they hid it well.'

"Grease" ignites conflict

Low number of tickets, show moves off campus

Grease was the word for the Student Activities Board Dinner Theater Jan. 20 and 21 at the El 
Kadir Shrine Club. Although circumstances surrounding the show produced friction, the sold-out 
performances ran smoothly.

The Franklin Street Singers prepared the show with two weeks of rehearsal. Tickets for the 
performance sold out one week early, limiting tickets available to students.

Before the tickets went on sale, one-half of the tickets were given to Edna Campbell Bookstore 
and production members were allowed to reserve as many tickets as they needed. This left 
about lOO tickets for students and faculty.

The cost of tickets also increased because of the off-campus location. The tickets cost $7 with an 
SAB sticker and $12 without and included the performance and a buffet dinner.

Students were upset because they thought they should have had first choice. "I think they 
should offer the tickets to the students first and then to the public after a certain date," junior 
Lisa Schneiderheinze said.

However, Steve Schmitt, SAB Dinner Theater co-coordinator, said many Kirksville residents 
attend when events provide services to the students. "It is good public relations," Schmitt said.

Co-ordinator Linda Scheffer said SAB could only choose from a limited number of locations this 
year. With the recent construction in the Georgian Room, it will no longer accommodate a 
dinner theater setting," Scheffer said. "We couldn't find another place to have it so we were 
forced to move off campus."

Cast members were sorry more students could not enjoy the show. "I feel bad the majority of 
the students couldn't come because of the cost and the fact they sold out so quickly," junior 
Marla McElroy who played Marty said. "I wish we could have done an encore performance on 
campus just for the students."

SAB planned to evaluate the show to avoid further ticket problems.

Laura Venable

"You're the one that I want," concludes the cast of "Grease." Students found controversy when 
they could not get tickets.

World / National

The palanquin containing the casket of Japan's Emperor Hirohito is carried by 51 pallbearers. 
The ceremonies were at the funeral hall at Shinjuku Gyoen Park.

Peace in the Gulf

Iran made a surprise announcement in July by agreeing to a cease-fire resolution of the eight-
year-old conflict between Iran and Iraq.

Foreign Ministers from both nations met in New York City to discuss Security Council Resolution 
598, which called for a U.N.-monitored cease-fire.

The U.N. Secretary-General met separately with the officials to discuss the truce
agreement. Both ministers reached a consensus and August 20, 1988 officially began the United 
Nations brokerage cease-fire treaty ending the Persian Gulf war.

The foreign ministers of Iran and Iraq met on August 25 in Geneva for the first face-to-face 
negotiations to achieve a permanent peace agreement.

The truce brought an end to frequent raids by both countries netting captives. Iraq's prisoner-
of-war total rose to 35,000 while Iran held 50,000 Iraqis.

Fight in flight

As Americans prepared for the Christmas season, students of Syracuse University, who had been 
studying abroad, were on their way home to spend the holidays with their families. They 
boarded Pan Am Flight 103 in December but never made it home. The aircraft
exploded above Lockerbie, Scotland.

Officials discovered that a bomb had been placed on the plane in Frankfurt, West Germany 
hidden in a cassette recorder. The explosion killed 259 people on board and 11 on the ground. 
The terrorist still remained a mystery.

As a result of the incident, many airports worldwide tightened security.

Armenia Disaster

An earthquake leveled Soviet Armenia on Dec. 7, leaving approximately 400,000 homeless and 
45,000 dead. The earthquake prompted Mikhail Gorbachev to cut short a trip to New York so he 
could lead the rescue efforts.

Gorbachev asked for American aid, while contributions poured in from many nations, including 
the United States. Medical supplies, rescue equipment and trained rescue teams were the most 
needed and first sent donations. Shortly after the quake, a plane carrying supplies crashed on a 
runway and killed the 79 soldiers on board.

The quake measured 6.9 on the Richter scale and investigators blamed much of the damage on 
the poor construction of buildings. The economic cost of the quake stressed an already deficit-
ridden Soviet budget.

Battle in the airwaves

United States Naval aviators, flying F-14s from the deck of the U.S.S. Kennedy, shot down two 
Libyan MiG fighter jets near Libya on Jan. 4, 1989. The incident was the fourth such 
confrontation between the United States and Libya since 1981 in the Mediterranean skies off 
Tobruk.

Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi blamed the United States as being the aggressor, but the 
Americans had footage, audio and video that refuted Lybia's claims.

The footage supported the American pilots by showing that each time the F-14s tried to shake 
the MiGs, the MiGs made a move to stay in head-to-head combat with the F-14s.

The American pilots tried to shake the MiGs five separate times, but after the fifth attempt, the 
pilots decided that the MiGs were too close to take any chances. The lead F-14 fired two missiles 
which missed. The F-14s then moved into combat formation and shot down the lead MiG. The 
Americans proceeded to shoot down the second MiG after it failed to retreat.

The surprise attack re-established Muammar Gaddafi's notorious reputation as the "Mad duck 
of the Mideast."

Action planned for AIDS

On Aug. 2, 1988, President Reagan issued an "Action Plan" against Acquired Immune Deficiency 
Syndrome. Reagan's plan called for federal agencies to draft voluntary anti-discriminatory 
guidelines for the workplace. The plan also ordered the department of Health and Human 
Services to set up conferences on AIDS-related health issues. By doing so, Reagan sidestepped 
the key recommendations of his own advisory committee report, released June 17.

The presidential committee recommended a federal law barring discrimination against 
individuals infected with the disease. Only with such protection, the committee argued, would 
many of those at risk come forward for testing and treatment to help prevent the spread of the 
disease.

Surgeon General C. Everett Koop released a nationwide mailing on May 26. Every home in 
America received the informative brochure explaining the specifics of the disease and methods 
of prevention. Research and experimental treatments continued, but a cure remained to be 
found.

Save the Whales

Americans took a break from the World Series and the Presidential race to focus on a three-
week human interest story dominating international media.

Three California grey whales trapped in Point Barrow, Alaska, (the northernmost point in the 
United States) since Oct. 7, were set free after international rescue efforts.

Rescue teams cut through two-foot-thick ice to clear a five-mile path to open water. Helicopters, 
support vehicles and more than 100 people participated in the $1 million rescue.

Biologists nicknamed the whales Bonnet, Crossbeak and Bone. By the end of the first week they 
had competing Eskimo names -- Putu, Siku and Kanik, or Ice Hole, Ice and Snowflake.

Conservationists wondered why Americans expressed sentiment over individual incidents such 
as the whales, yet ignored larger biological problems. The nation enthusiastically watched the 
rescue of the whales but did not extend concern to other problems.

Listening to student needs

The board of trustees at Galluadet University, the only national liberal arts college for the deaf, 
named a deaf man, Irving King Jordan, Jr. as president of the University on March 13, 1988. 
Jordan, a Galluadet graduate, became the school's first nonhearing president.

The board originally hired Elisabeth Ann Zinser, 48, as president. She could not communicate 
with sign language and did not have hearing problems.

Students of Galluadet flooded the streets of Washington, D.C. in protest. They believed a deaf 
president could understand the student body. Their protests shut down classes for one week.

Briser finally resigned and outraged students were satisfied. Politicians concerned about re-
election had convinced the University to hire a deaf person as President.

Yellowstone takes the heat

Fires raged in Yellowstone National Park as the hottest and driest season in the park's 116-year 
history created a breeding ground for ten separate fires. The fires in the Western states were 
concentrated in Yellowstone but also consumed four adjacent national forests. More than 
800,000 acres of the 2.2-million-acre park were destroyed by the fires which lasted more than 
three months, officials said. The fires extended to the woodlands immediately surrounding 
Yellowstone and a total of more than 582,401 acres were burned.

The fires initiated debate about how fires should be managed. In 1972,the National Park Service 
adopted a policy of allowing spontaneous fires to burn unimpeded unless they seriously 
threatened lives or property.

Lightning ignited the flames and high winds spread the disaster as 8,000 fire fighters battled the 
blaze. Park officials said they could not extinguish the fires but could try to contain them.

Nature provided the only hope for complete control as park officials waited for rain and snow to 
snuff the smoldering park.

After the fury, Mel Stortz studies the forest's charred grounds, fires destroyed much of Yellow 
Stone National Park as a dry summer fueled the destruction.

State

Ashcroft's victory tour

Incumbent Gov. John Ashcroft defeated state representative Betty Cooper Hearnes in 
November. He received a groundswell of support to beat his female Democratic opponent.

Ashcroft announced his plans to run for re-election in Kirksville on March 23, 1988 in front of 
Kirk Memorial. He returned to Kirksville again in October to campaign.

Ashcroft showed his growing concern for education in Missouri with plans to increase financing 
by 58 percent. He stressed that higher education should hold the same amount of concern as 
elementary and secondary education.

In order to implement the proposed increase in this area of the budget, Ashcroft pushed for an 8 
cent increase in tobacco taxes. The increase would bring an extra $55 million a year, two-thirds 
of which would be used for maintenance on public college campuses. The remaining third of the 
increase would expand Medicaid coverage and include work for the poor.

Some members of the state legislature expressed their doubts of the proposal's longevity. More 
skepticism came in February when the media called attention to Ashcroft's all-male staff.

Injection ends life

George C. "Tiny" Mercer received a lethal injection on Friday, Feb. 6, 1989. He had been on 
death row since November 1979. More excutions were foreseen possible throughout 1989.

"I think it is quite possible we will," John M. Morris, the assistant Missouri attor
ney general said. "That's not a terribly dangerous prediction."

Three death row prisoners were close to exhausting their appeals, Morris said.
Mercer, 44, became the first inmate executed in Missouri since Feb. 1965. He also went on the 
record as the first condemned prisoner to exhaust his traditional appeals since the state 
reinstated the death penalty in 1977.

Gerald Smith, 30, demanded a lethal injection in Dec. 1988 but did not see his demand met.

Smith transferred from death row at the Misouri State Penitentiary in Jefferson City to an 
isolation cell where condemned convicts are confined before execution. The convicted killer 
waited calmly for fulfillment of his demand to be executed.

Education uncertainty

Coordinating Board of Higher Education commissioner Shaila R. Aery resigned on Februrary 1 
and accepted the same postion in Maryland. The CBHE planned to conduct a national search to 
fill Aery's spot and hoped to name a new commissioner by summer. Judy Vickrey served as 
intercommissioner of the CBHE.

Aery created headlines when she recommended major program revisions for Missouri higher 
education institutions. The changes would consolidate programs and included a proposal to shut 
down Northwest Missouri State University. Although NWMSU remained open, no one knew 
which changes would be followed through.

Aery created another stir in February when she proposed 10 program cuts at Northeast. The 
plan to generate $310 million for higher education did not gain strong support in the state 
legislature. The Missouri General Assembly planned to organize a study of the state's needs in 
higher education.

Corn plants such as this one suffered from a hot, dry summer.

Drought damage

Dust Storms caused by the drought of 1988 led to extensive soil erosion on 13.1 million acres of 
farmland. As the drought parched the land it dried the
waterways, leaving barges stranded in the rivers and forced dredging operations to keep 
channels open for shipping.

The combined flow of the Mississippi, Columbia and St. Lawrence fell to 63-per-cent of normal 
at the end of spring with the Mississippi at a record low.

The severity of the situation along the Mississippi led Gov. James R. Thompson (R-lll) to propose 
that water from Lake Michigan be emptied into Illinois tributaries of the river.

Food prices jumped even though inflation remained at a tolerable level. The Agriculture 
Department maintained that the inflation rate for food would be stable, but prices started rising 
in July. Economists predicted the long-term results of the drought would be even more 
devastating.

Called before the court

Anti-abortion protests became heated in Jan. when the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to review 
the constitutionality of a Missouri law which limited the use of public funds for abortion.

The 1986 Missouri law also restricted access of public buildings for abortions and follow-up 
counseling and impeded doctors from performing abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy. The 
preamble contained an especially controversial statement. The law stated that human life 
begins at conception.

The Federal District Court of Missouri and the 8th G.S. Court of Appeals declared parts of the 
law unconstitutional. The review would present a new look at the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision 
which legalized abortion. If the court revoked the decision, the states would be expected to 
make individual rulings on whether or not to legalize abortion.

Abortion protesters vehemently express their beliefs on Franklin Street. The abortion issue 
divided the country as a Missouri case prepared to come before the U. S. Supreme Court.

Tower's fall kills three

Three men were killed on June 2 while replacing diagonal support rods on the KTVO-TV tower in 
Colony, Mo.

The tower collapsed and put the station off the air for 32 hours .. Investigators found the body 
of one of the workers the next day under 30 feet of twisted, mangled debris.

The tower had been operating since Sept. 1987 as one of only 50 similar 2,000 foot towers in 
the United States. Investigations never found a clear reason for the collapse. Greg Wittland, 
head of the KTVO tower program, said the cause could have resulted from human error, 
equipment failure or a combination of these and other factors.

A new tower would be built at the same location and would cost a great deal more than the 
original. Construction on the new tower could not begin until the final reports on the collapse of 
the original were released. The plans to rebuild never saw action.

Val Hoeppner

The Kirksville Fire Department searches the wreckage of the KTVO tower for survivors on June 3. 
Three men were killed when they fell about 500 feet as the tower collapsed June 2.

Fires gut apartments

A fire on March 14 at 510 E. Washington left five students homeless. The fire gutted the 
apartment building and smoke from the faulty furnace forced the evacuation of the Adair 
County Detention Center, located in the same building.

The specific cause of the fire remained unknown because of damage to the electrical wires. 
Student Senate raised more than $500 for the victims.

On June 30, a student's upstairs aparment at the corner of Elson and Washington burned 
completely. An electrical oscillating fan appeared to have shorted out and resulted in $500,000 
damage.

Another fire occurred on Elson Street as the Uptown Cafe went up in flames Aug. 7. The fire 
caused approximately $7,000 in damages.

Batallion Chief Jim Hudnall of the Kirksville Fire Department said the city had a set of fire codes 
but just because a building followed these codes did not ensure that the building would be 
completely fire proof.

A fire on June 30 destroyed the apartments on the corner of Washington and Elson streets.

Liquor control bars minors

The Department of Liquor Control cracked down on local bars. The Tap Room received an order 
to close for three days in August when they were caught serving minors. A student with a fake 
identification entered the bar, and later caused suspension of the operation.

The Library received a stiffer penalty. It closed for 30 days when an undercover police agent 
discovered the sale of controlled substances.

The Oz suffered its own demise. Low numbers of attendance and large crowds only after 
midnight caused the bar to close its doors on January 1. The Oz closed, despite being the only 
local bar to offer a dance floor. The bar, located about one mile out of Kirksville, had low 
attendence because students were afraid to drive there after drinking alcohol. The police had 
set up sobriety check points around town to curb the number of drunk drivers.

Bogie's, originally located in the country club, moved because of financial losses. The restaurant 
and lounge's new location near the square attracted more business. The Tap Room tried to 
compensate for the loss of the Oz and constructed a dance floor.

Alcohol made the headlines on campus when Tau Kappa Epsilon's local operation rights were 
suspended by the University until May 1, 1989. An 18-year-old woman visiting from Central 
Missouri State University consumed approximately 20 shots of tequila while at a TKE Barn party. 
She was rushed to Kirksville Osteopathic Medical Center for treatment.
The TKEs met with Dean of Students Terry Smith and presented "Proposal: Fraternity of the 
'90s" which outlined changes to be implemented by them.

Mail-in wins, levy fails

Missouri's first mail-in election resulted in the defeat of a 59 cent tax levy in Kirksville. The levy 
would have increased teachers' salaries in the Kirksville R-III School District.

The mail-in process, as opposed to traditional voting booth methods and low voter turnout, 
provided a 68 percent voter response. 10,956 ballots were mailed for the election.

The turnout compared to less than 28 and 18 percent response rates in the April and June Adair 
County school district elections.

Secretary of State Roy Blunt came to Kirksville to witness the tabulation by Adair County Clerk 
Max Patterson and the election commissioners. Officials consid
ered the mail-in procedure a success.

BRAVE NEW BEAUTY

The key to fashion last year gave way to variety and individuality. Almost anything from 
traditional to new wave, old to new, and expensive to dirt cheap could be found as the "in 
thing" to wear.

"I think the way people dress reflects the person they are -- people who dress like everyone else 
are static, and people who dress for themselves have interesting personalities," sophomore Paul 
Iadevito said.

To get the spruced-up look, college women wore classic cuts including skirts of any length and 
cotton or silk blouses buttoned to the collar, accessorized with colorful scarfs around the neck, 
waist, or over the shoulder.

"I like to dress comfortably during the week and dress up on the weekend," junior Tammy 
Borgmeyer said. "After seeing me in jeans all week, they can finally say, "Gee, you look nice 
tonight."

Men wore waist-pleated pants with dress shirts or woolblend sweaters (or both) with dark socks 
and usually penny loafers.

In the casual corner, acid or stone-washed denim were common. Students donned denim 
jackets and ripped or frayed jeans cuffed at the ankles. Matching scrunched socks and canvas 
tennis shoes, hightops, or leather camp boots finished off the look. For cooler weather, students 
wore leather bomber jackets.

Some college women wore their boyfriends' clothes instead of their own -- his shirts, sweaters, 
sweats -- you name it. What about his boxer shorts? Nothing's sacred about that. With or 
without long underwear underneath, boxer shorts were definitely acceptable.

"Fashion should be a statement, not a question," freshman Robin Williams said.
Attire determined personalities, but hair styles made their own statements. Long, short, shaved, 
curled, straight -- everyone sported different looks.

Women were divided as they wore various skirt lengths. Long and flowing, or short and spiky, 
both styles became equally popular. According to Castle Studio hairdresser Marla Pope, about 
75 percent of their business came from college students.

Accessories also enhanced student's individuality as handmade friendship bracelets, collar 
necklaces, or triple-pierced ears became popular unisex items.

"Variety is the spice of life," sophomore Laurie Dunn said. "Who needs the world to be one big 
personality?"

Tastes in tanning differed as much as students' personalities. Some students used tanning spas 
to maintain a healthy glow all year.

Freshman Denise O'Connell worked at the Sunspot Tanning Cove & Boutique. She said a tan 
changed the way students felt about themselves.

"It makes them feel better," O'Connell said. "People generally think they look better with a tan. 
Tanning is considered a luxury."

Individuality made a fashion statement with clothes, hair and makeup. Students followed their 
instincts about what to wear rather than following the fashion rules. Students created their own 
unique combinations.

"I dress the way I want ... I dress to clash," Iadevito said.

Like dust in the wind, rock groups come and go. Some are only able to handle the slightest 
amount of tension while others hang tough, desperately clinging to the core group. What was 
life like being a college student and member of a rock band?

A group of five University students based in Kirksville formed After Shock. After a slow start, the 
band finally performed last year entertaining crowds with their metallic sound.

"We've been through numerous line-up changes this year. We tried to get back together, but 
had some differences as to who was going to be in the band," junior bass guitar player Grant 
Becker said. "It was hard keeping up with one another because our members were spread out 
over four states."

Junior lead vocalist Mike Kuether said in addition to the distance problem, the group faced other 
obstacles.

"One real problem we had was getting our priorities straight. With people in college and 
eventually graduating, members come and go," he said.

Because the group had a difficult time getting its original members back together, they were not 
able to put on their first performance until late October. For the most part, After Shock played 
at fraternity parties and at local night clubs.

The band practiced approximately 12-15 hours each week in addition to carrying full school 
loads, which sometimes created problems.

"I could recall a numerous amount of times when we had to reschedule many rehearsals 
because someone in the group would have a test the next day," Kuether said. "We tried to stick 
to a plan, but we often had to change things."

Senior guitarist Dan Drugan also had problems with combining school and the band.

"When we practiced, we practiced hard because we were all perfectionists. School was the 
reason we were here and it came first. After school, we worried about the group," he said.

After Shock played a variety of Top 40 metal music. Groups such as Bon Jovi, the Scorpions and 
White Snake were just a few featured in their musical selections.

"We just had a good time and made a little money in the process," said Drugan. After Shock was 
only one of the few bands able to survive the consequences of negative forces. Most groups did 
not even last one year. In their second year of playing together, After Shock still hung tough and 
had a promising future to be a group included in the minority of those that succeed, but they 
still had a long road ahead.

Musical Notes

Music on college campuses is stereotyped as loud, obnoxious and irritating. That did not 
necessarily hold true for the 1988-89 school year. Heavy metal, Top 40, pop, rock, Christian, 
classical, alternative and country were all mentioned and listed by students when asked about 
their favorite types of music.

Stereos blasted "Don't Worry be Happy" and radios constantly tuned to KRXL and KTUF. Rock 
music seemed to be the favorite choice, with classical music following a scale behind. Almost 
everyone had their own favorite song or group; one they found positively the best.

"Probably my favorite was the song "Sincerely Yours," by Gary Chapman," said freshman Jeff 
Schneider. "I liked it because it was really inspiring."

Students who proclaimed heavy metal their favorite form of tunes rocked to albums of KISS, 
Guns-N-Roses, Def Leppard, Ratt, White Lion and Van Halen, rating them the cream of the 
Heavy Metal crop. On the flip side, the classical listeners prefered Tchaikovsky, Beethoven and 
Mozart.

On the Top 40 and rap charts Laura Branigan, Debbie Gibson, Breathe, Dana Dane, J.J. Fad and 
L.L. Cool J won the ears and hearts of students. Alternative rock fans chose the new group 
Breathe as a popular band. The Dead Milkmen, R.E.M., and Depeche Mode received techno-pop 
honors.

The Christian rock fans placed their devotion to Amy Grant, David Meece, Stryper and Micheal 
W. Smith.

"My favorite singer was Micheal W. Smith," said sophomore Becky Shaffer. "His music sounds 
like pop music, but the lyrics were different. My favorite song by him was "The Throne".

Country music fans enjoyed the increasing popularity of singers like Randy Travis, Hank Williams 
Jr., Reba Mclntyer and the Judds.

Classics such as "Louie, Louie," "Old Time Rock and Roll," and "Do You Love Me?" continued to 
be all-time party picks.

Music sounded everywhere on campus from residence halls to Stokes Stadium for Dog Days 
Battle of the Bands to weekend parties and special occasions. From alarm clock wake up calls to 
stereos, music was a student from dawn to dusk.

While walking through the corridors of the residence halls it was not surprising to hear screams 
of, "Don't change that channel!" or, "Be quiet -- this is my favorite part!" as people crammed 
into the lounges, hit the couches and watched TV.

On any given day you could walk through the hall lounges and find anywhere from two to 25 
people watching television. The shows included afternoon sports on weekends to holiday 
specials or the Video Cassette Recorders brought into the lounge so students could put the good 
old reliable cassette in, pop some popcorn and watch some movies. Some "couch potatoes" 
spent up to six hours a day.

"I watched about six hours a day," sophomore Jen Blais said. "But I was a very sociable person."

Favorite shows of some of the most dedicated couch potatos included: 'WKRP in Cincinnati,' 
'Cheers' and the soap opera 'Days of Our Lives.'

Although the afternoon soaps and evening sitcoms were popular, Saturday and Sunday 
afternoon sports could be heard throughout the entire hall, along with students yelling about 
bad calls or what a great guy the umpire was after their team won by a close call.

One afternoon, 'The Muppet Show' movie attracted about 15 women who sat in the fourth floor 
Centennial Hall lounge, sang the 'Rainbow Connection' and recited the lines with Kermit the 
Frog and Miss Piggy. After the muppets movie, the 'Charlie Brown Christmas' special lured 
passers by wondering, "Has the Carlie Brown gang gone ice skating yet?"

Sunday afternoons often meant open books with televisions blasted and pencils in hand as 
students made an effort to study.

However, residence halls were not the only place where "couch potatoes" could be found. Off-
campus students were also known to hide out in their apartments and snuggle up to their 
remote controls and color TVs.

Many lounge lizards enjoyed Saturday morning cartoons. For the completely dedicated "potato" 
that meant waking up early to catch the best of the cartoons including 'Scobby Doo' and the 
'Smurfs.'

"My favorite cartoon was the 'Ed Grimley Show,"' senior Ann Walljasper said. "It came on late 
enough in the morning that I could get up and be awake enough to laugh."

Finding fun for the under-21 crowd

Being a minor did not have to mean boredom on the weekends. The under-21 crowd discovered 
their own ways of having fun and filling the time between classes.

Fraternities and non-greeks offered parties on Friday and Saturday nights for students who liked 
big crowds and loud music.

"I look forward to the weekends," freshman Diane Sollmann said. "I'm pledging little sis to a 
fraternity, so I like spending time out at the house with all my friends."

After a night of socializing, many students met at the all- night restaurants in town.
"Before we go home from a party, a bunch of us go out to Pancake City," sophomore Julie 
Abkemeier said. "It's a real fun place to be at 2 a.m."

Some students got more out of preparing for parties than others. Sophomore Melanie Trullinger 
did her laundry while she was getting ready to go out.

"I hate doing the laundry and this way I don't have to think about it so much," Trullinger said. "I 
just run down and throw it in the dryer between picking out an outfit and curling my hair."

Movies offered another option for fun on the weekends. The Student Activities Board showed 
movies on Friday nights and students went to Petite Three theater and rented videos.

"My friends and I go to the SAB or rent a movie and we definitly have to order Pagliai's baby 
ronzas," sophomore Angie Howard said.

Another way of escaping the stress of the week was dating. After weeknights of studying 
together, couples relaxed and went out for a change.

"When I go out with a girl I usually take her to dinner and a movie," sophomore Chad Kerr said.

Sophomore Julie Parrish said she spent a lot of time with her boyfriend on the weekends.

"We play pool and go to the show, or I just go over to his house," Parrish said.

But sometimes students became so busy the weekends seemed to blend into the week. They 
spent Friday and Saturday nights doing the same thing they did on weeknights -- homework.

"Sometimes I end up spending the weekend catching up on all the things I put off during the 
week," sophomore Donna Lubbe said.

Freshman Sandy Herberholz said she liked to go out, but there were times when she had to stay 
home.

"I study on the weekends if I have an extreme amount of homework," Herberholz said.
Some students had good intentions when they stayed home to do homework, but found it hard 
to stick to their plans.

"I try to get things accomplished, but it just never seems to happen," sophomore Larry Fowler 
said.

Working in bars

Tending to be profitable

Tom Collins, Harvey Wallbanger and Bloody Mary. Not everyone had a chance to work with such 
interesting characters.

Serving drinks like these at local bars gave students a chance to earn money while going to 
school. "I look forward to going to work because it's such a stress reliever to get away from 
campus and to get into that atmosphere," senior Tim Bahr said. "You get to have as much fun at 
work as the people who are in there." Bahr enjoyed the casual atmosophere at Bogie's, where 
he started working last summer. Bartending also provided practical experience for careers.

Senior Tim O'Brien often used knowledge acquired from business courses at his job. O'Brien 
worked as manager at the Holiday Inn lounge before assuming managerial duties at Pick's Pub. 
"I've really incorporated my financial and accounting knowledge to make both places I've 
managed more cost efficient," O'Brien said.

O'Brien said the experience he received while bartending was invaluable. He made several 
business contacts while bartending. The job he planned to take after graduation resulted from a 
contact he made at Holiday Inn.

Knowing employment in Kirksville could be scarce, sophomore Todd Iossi thought bartending 
would be a good job to look for. After attending college for three semesters, Iossi enrolled in the 
Boston School of Bartending in Atlanta, Georgia, to learn the trade. Iossi tended bar at Too Talls.

Since high-paying jobs were sometimes hard to come by, many student bartenders felt they had 
found a perfect alternative. Most received tips in addition to their regular paycheck. "It's about 
the best minimum wage job you can have," O'Brien said.

Besides providing funds for tuition, rent and utilities, bartending also offered a source of free 
entertainment. Senior Dave Whelan enjoyed working at the Golden Spike because he could 
listen to live bands and comedians while he worked. He recalled an incident when a band 
performed on stage and an amplifier burst into flames. "That was some serious high-energy 
rock'n'roll!" Whelan said.

Bartenders often played the role of the "poor man's psychologist." They lent a sympathetic ear 
to customers who had sob stories about personal problems. Bahr said many went to bars to 
forget their problems. "A lot of people just want to go somewhere and have a drink and get 
their problems off their chest and get them into perspective," Bahr said.

Like other jobs, there were drawbacks to bartending. While some students said having a job 
forced them to organize their time better, others found it difficult to find time to study. "It's 
really tough to get through school working," O'Brien said. "School is a full-time commitment. 
Work is a full-time commitment."

Another minor dilemma faced bartenders. "The worst thing is when you have to card people -- 
especially the ones you know aren't 21 -- and then you have to throw them out," senior Sue 
Meyer said.

Minors often thought they would be served if they knew the bartender. Senior Steve Jones, who 
worked at The Library, refused to serve minors. He did not want to face the possible 
consequences. "It's not really worth the risk to them or me," Jones said.

Some students who became bartenders found it hard to make the transition from being a 
customer to becoming an employee at a familiar hangout. "It's really difficult when your friends 
are all partying and you're on the other side of the bar," Whelan said.

Most agreed bartending did not quite fit the image portrayed in the movie, "Cocktail." They 
stayed too busy trying to serve thirsty customers to take time out for flipping bottles around for 
entertainment. "It's not nearly as glamorous as Tom Cruise makes it out to be," Jones said.

Overall, students who worked at bars enjoyed their job. "It's kind of like getting paid to party," 
senior Steve Jones said.

A cooldown is just as important as a warmup. After jogging inside Pershing arena, these 
students slowed their pace for a few laps.

An increased heart rate from raising their arms above their heads helps these students meet 
their target. Students enrolled in Health and Wellness learned about fitness twice per week in 
the classroom and exercised three times per week.

Working out and shaping up

Aerobics pave way to fitness

Students, faculty and staff found easier ways to work out more efficiently. But no gain did not 
always mean no pain.

Professor of Education Viola Martin and others were enrolled in a University Adult Fitness class. 
Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday they took a "health" break.
Martin enjoyed walking.

"I feel better when I walk," Martin said.

Not everyone decided to walk, some adults chose a more intensive workout. Tammy Wheeler, 
secretary of Business and Accountancy, became involved in an aerobics class. Wheeler attended 
the class during her lunch break. Wheeler said she did not want to stop when the class ended.

"I want to continue, since school began it makes me feel better," Wheeler said. "I have more 
energy."

As the amount of information published about fitness increased, more people learned to 
exercise.

Becky Mayer, undergraduate research assistant in exercise science, said people did not realize 
the benefits of exercising.

"You have a better self concept, you want to do more, you are healthier, more productive and 
you have a longer life span," Mayer said.

Senior Patty Parmeter instructed aerobics at The Gym. Parmeter said aerobics provided health 
benefits similar to the benefits from riding your bike or just going for a walk.
The number of students participating in exercise programs also increased. Parmeter said her 
classes consisted mostly of NMSU and KCOM students.

Research reports supported both low and high impact aerobics. Despite these reports, injuries 
could result from both types of aerobics. Mayer said it depended upon the techniques of your 
instructor. She said low impact aerobics were more beneficial for overweight or older people.

Mayer said you need to pace yourself, exhaustion means slow down, good posture prevents 
injuries and monitoring your heart rate keeps track of progress.

If injuries occurred and were persistent, many experts and consultants recommended taking 
time off from exercise. But experts agreed a little exercise is better than no exercise.

Proper workout gear can make or break a workout session. Cheryl Tucker, Instructor of Health 
and Exercise Science, taught students how to do aerobics safely.

Name in the games

In Seoul Florence Griffith Joyner sprints to a win in the 200-meter race. Joyner went on to win a 
gold in the 200-meter and helped the 4x100 relay team to a gold.

With a new world record in the 100-meter, Ben Johnson gives the number one sign as he 
crosses the finish line. Johnson was later stripped of his medal when steroids were detected in 
his blood, giving Carl Lewis of the USA first place.

The year in sports warmed up as the Los Angeles Lakers became the first team in more than 20 
years to win back-to-back National Basketball Association championships in April. Their seventh-
game victory in the final series fulfilled a promise from coach Pat Riley to Laker fans for a repeat 
performance in 1989. After the win, TV viewers saw Laker captain Kareem Abdul-Jabbar stuff a 
towel in Riley's mouth before he made any promsies for the 1988-89 campaign.

June found American and National League baseball well into the season's schedule. An 
incredible increase in balks, a drastic reduction of homeruns, and the annual firing of manager 
Billy Martin by the Yankees (actually only the fifth time) headlined the hardball season.

Night baseball came to Chicago's Wrigley Field one day later than scheduled. The postponement 
resulted from an untimely early-August rainstorm in the fourth inning of the originally-
scheduled "grand lighting" of America's last professional ballpark to rely on natural lighting.

In the most famous trade in the history of the National Hockey League, the Oilers dealt 
Edmonton superstar Wayne Gretzky to the Los Angeles Kings, a perennial loser. Hope of a 
turnaround for their club in southern California were quickly answered as the Kings leaped to 
the top of their division early in the season.

September brought the inevitable pennant races along with baseball's first perfect game in four 
years, courtesy of Cincinnati southpaw Tom Browning. Meanwhile, Oakland slugger Jose 
Canseco blended deceptive speed with awesome power while putting the finishing touches on 
the sport's first 40-homerun/40-stolen base season.

Dodger Orel Hershiser set another standard in the major leagues as he pitched 59 consecutive 
scoreless innings to erase ex-Dodger Don Drysdale's old record.

Canseco and Dodger leader Kirk Gibson led their teams to division titles and were rewarded for 
their numbers with the American and National League Most Valuable Player awards.

The Olympic Games interrupted the study habits at least once for almost every college student. 
Americans watched 17-year-old Janet Evans outswim older, bigger and stronger opponents as 
the five-foot, five-inch, ninety-five pound girl took three gold medals back home to show her 
schoolmates. Sisters-in-law Florence Griffith Joyner and Jackie Joyner-Kersey completed their 
rise from the ghettoes by combining for two world records, two Olympic records, five gold 
medals, and one silver.

U.S. diver Greg Louganis recovered and won two gold medals after crashing into the board on a 
preliminary dive and suffering from a gash to his head. Louganis became the first man in 
Olympic history to repeat as the springboard and platform champion.

Matt Biondi emerged as the king of the swimming competition, winning five gold medals, one 
silver, and one bronze in the water.

Carl Lewis won the 100-meter dash and the long jump to earn two first-place finishes, and 
complemented the two golds with a silver-medal finish in the 200-meter dash.

The U.S. men overcame a feisty Soviet volleyball team to take the gold, and the American 
baseball team proved unbeatable in that demonstration sport.

Controversy dominated the games. Canada's Ben Johnson was stripped of his gold medal and 
world record of 9.79 seconds in the 100-meter dash when a mandatory drug test revealed 
steroid use.

U.S. boxer Anthony Hembrick brought his solid boxing background into his match with South 
Korea's Ha Jong-Ho a little too late, saying he missed a bus. Officials eliminated Hembrick from 
the competition before he put on his gloves. American 800-meter runner Johnny Gray 
disapproved of a South Korean Cabbie's driving and kicked in the car's fender. In the chase that 
followed the cabbie outsprinted and caught Gray.

The Soviets dominated the Olympics, taking home 132 medals, including 55 golds. They upset 
the previously undefeated U.S. men's basketball team, took home top men's soccer honors, and 
edged out Romania in men's and women's gymnastics. The United States finished third overall 
(behind East Germany), and brought home 94 medals, 36 of them gold.

As the Olympic excitement dwindled, America changed channels to see the Los Angeles Dodgers 
conclude a Cinderella season by defeating the heavily favored Oakland Athletics. Kirk Gibson hit 
a 9th-inning home run in Game 1 to spark the Dodgers. They went on to take the series four 
games to one.

In college basketball, Duke University began the season on top of the NCAA rankings. Kansas lost 
the opportunity to repeat as national champions when they were suspended from postseason 
action due to violations of NCAA recruiting rules.

Curtis Strange quieted the golf critics who said he could not win a big tournament by winning 
more money than anyone else on the links in 1988.

Notre Dame remained high in the college football polls almost all season and clinched the top 
spot by knocking off the University of Southern California and overpowering the West Virginia 
Mountaineers in the Fiesta Bowl.

The San Francisco 49ers took their third Super Bowl victory of the decade by overcoming a 
Cincinnati Bengal fourth-quarter effort, in Super Bowl XXIII. Joe Montana became the first 
quarterback to drive his team the full length of the field in the last minute for a Super Bowl win, 
20-16.

Finally, Johnny Bench and Carl Yastrzemski were inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame. Both 
were in their first year of eligibility.

From regulatory violations to world records, the year in sports scored a win for the thrill of 
competition and the entertainment of fans.

Testing needles athletes

The 1988 Olympic Games brought the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat to millions of 
viewers. It also brought the ugly world of drugs. World class athletes, like runner Ben Johnson, 
were not only stripped of their medals, but were banished from their individual sports.

"Abandoning Ben Johnson or any other athlete was not enough because they needed counseling 
and help to get off whatever drugs they were using," Sam Lesseig, acting athletic director, said.

This idea formed the foundation of the local drug program. "Basically for the last two years the 
policy has been that there has not been any specific time table set up for testing," Lesseig said, 
"We used the funds that would be necessary for testing in a campaign to try to educate the 
athletes and try to handle it more in an educational way."

Not all athletes found a use for drugs and were in favor of the testing professionally and locally. 
"I think that drug testing was a great idea because it intimidated the non-drug users, who, 
without the threat of testing, might try drugs," freshman swimmer Brock Ryan said. "It kept the 
drug users out of sports because sports was for winners and drugs are for losers."

Although there was no mandatory drug test on the campus, Lesseig said that according to NCAA 
rules, all athletes had to sign a form agreeing to submit to drug testing upon request.

Many athletes on campus had their own views on drug testing. Sophomore swimmer Jim Yates 
said, "I suppose if I took drugs I would be against it. There does need to be drug testing, though, 
because using drugs gives some athletes unfair advantages."

Freshman football player Bill Pintsak summed up the opinions of a number of athletes, "As far as 
testing is concerned, drugs in America are a problem," he said. "Drugs are everywhere but 
society is using athletes as scapegoats. It seems that athletes get blamed, and it is being pushed 
off on them. It is used to clean up sports, but it should not turn players into scapegoats."

A desire for strong hamstrings motivates Anthony Roberts, so. Residence halls, Pershing, and 
The Gym are big choices as places to lift.

Lifting attracts strong following

With the advent of the fitness craze, a sport that had gone unnoticed for many years gained new 
popularity. Weightlifting became a big sport. Students were pumping iron more than ever.

Rod Tucker, owner of The Gym, said the trend definitely rose. The number of students who 
worked out at The Gym increased. Tucker said it was mainly due to word of mouth.

"Someone started working out and in a couple of months they started to see results," Tucker 
said. "Then someone asked 'What the heck you been doing?' and when they found out they 
wanted to see some results too, they started lifting." Tucker added that it was not an overnight 
success story. The results came from longterm dedication to lifting.

Junior Sidney Moore, who started lifting in high school because of sports, saw results.

"My body was looking better," Moore said. "It kept me disciplined to work out everyday. If a guy 
wanted to be built up it depended on how hard he wanted to work. You could almost control 
your own destiny."

The residence halls contained Nautilus equipment and free weights because they wanted to 
build their bodies and free weights were the most popular choice to achieve their goals.

Another aspect of weightlifting concerned supplements. Many people used protein powders, 
amino acids and other supplements to help their body get bigger. People who lifted also ate 
more carbohydrates, and proteins because they helped in energy and muscle growth.

Cheap rent doesn't always mean a clean atmosphere. Some students had leases that led them 
to decrepit neighborhoods.

Apartment complexes such as Vista Heights offer spacious, affordable living for those who have 
roommates. Nearly half of the student body chose to live off-campus.

(Page 89)

Choices for the Homefront

Where to live presented students with an unexpected dilemma. With approximately 6,000 
students enrolled, nearly half of the student body lived on campus. The other 50 percent lived 
away from the academic environment. Weighing the pros and cons helped students decide 
where their "home away from home" would be.

Some students preferred living in residence halls to apartments or rented houses. Freshman 
Shelley Picha said meeting more people, the availability of professors and prepared meals were 
the advantages of on-campus living.

"On campus, I got to meet more people, and I was closer to my classes," Picha said. "With PFM, 
everything was prepared for me. All I had to do was make it there on time."
Living off campus and not having access to a car often caused inconveniences for students.

Since freshman Stacie Gatung did not own a car, living on campus was convenient for her, but 
she said living in the residence halls still had more disadvantages.

"It was convenient, but sometimes I got sick of PFM. Without a car, it was hard to get to other 
places to eat," Gattung said. "With all the rules we were under, we didn't really have any 
freedom."

Junior Curt Malone, frustrated with his living conditions in the residence halls, planned to move 
off campus next year.

"There was less freedom because of all the rules the University implied," Malone said. "The 
stricter rules made me feel like I had a parent watching over me."

Most students living off campus said the advantages outweighed the disadvantages. Sophomore 
Ed Musgrave preferred off-campus life although finding a peaceful environment to study in was 
sometimes impossible.

"Off campus, I had more privacy, more room and it was great having cable TV," Musgrave said. 
He said the inability to find a quiet study area and the drive to school were problems for him.

Junior Rhonda Warren said the advantages of living off campus included more than just cable.

"I could be noisy whenever I wanted," Warren said. "There was more freedom, and I didn't have 
rules and regulations."

One concern when deciding where to live seemed to be the cost. Living off campus cost more 
for senior Cindy Eason, but she said the extra expense was worth it.

"I think it was probably more expensive where I lived, but it was definitely worth it," Eason said. 
"There was more freedom. I wasn't in a controlled environment, and it was quiet."

"Basically, it cost about the same, senior Kelli Walker said. "I got more room off campus, so it 
was a better value.

The expense of living off campus opposed to on campus was all relative to the individual's 
lifestyle. Each student had to take these things into consideration when deciding on a place to 
call "home."

Dining out is grade A choice

The kitchen cupboard has nothing appealing to your taste buds and the PFM menu for that night 
has the same old starchy food as the night before. What did a poor college student do for a 
good meal?

For most students, eating out was the answer, and depending on personal taste and income, 
everyone found something to enjoy.

Kirksville had food chains with something appealing to even the most finicky of people, but 
many students had a set of standards that restaurant had to meet before dining out.

"I have a set criteria for places before I'll eat there," freshman Lea Asel said. "The most 
important thing for me is the quality of food, but just as important is the appearance of the 
workers and the business, and of course, whether I have to tip or not is always considered."

Students also wanted to have a variety of choices when deciding where to eat.

"Long John Silver's is my favorite restaurant because of its wide variety of food," sophomore Jay 
Parsons said. "You can get seafood, chicken, salads and more. I like places where I have a choice 
of different types of food."

The overriding factor in choosing a place to eat continued to be how much the venture will cost.

"At Bonanza you can really stuff your face for very little money," sophomore Scott Kurinsky said. 
"When you're scrapping for money the Golden Spike with their 69 cent cheeseburgers and fries 
is great, too."

No matter what students were hungry for or how much money they had, Kirksville offered many 
ways to escape the food blahs. Dine-in or delivery service, good food could always be found.

When dieting becomes an obsession
 
(Page 95)

Health guru Richard Simmons advises against saying "diet." He suggests calling weight-loss 
programs "live-its" to avoid the negative connotation of the word die.

This positive approach to weight loss might work for some overweight people but led to serious 
problems for nearly 20 percent of college women nationwide. These women suffered from 
anorexia nervosa and/or bulimia, eating disorders resulting from an obsession with dieting and 
weight control.

Debbie noticed the extent of her bulimic and anorectic tendencies a few weeks before 
Thanksgiving.

"I was sitting in the snack bar of the Student Union Building and I picked up a brochure about 
eating disorders. I read over the list of physical warning signs and all of a sudden I became really 
scared. I fit the description. My diet was out of control."

Debbie's diet did not begin as intentional self-starvation or as binging and purging. "The people I 
ate with when I was a freshman ate a lot. I gained more than the 'fresh-man-15' because I ate so 
badly as a freshman. I ate every kind of greasy food and pizza at least three times a week. I was 
never aware of what I ate."

By the end of her freshman year, Debbie weighed more than ever before.

"I went home and my mother made one derogatory comment about my weight and that sparked it. I said 
'no more' and decided to start a weight loss program."

After struggling to lose weight for most of the summer, Debbie eventually lost 15 pounds.

"That motivated me. Other people started to notice and commented about how I looked. I 
wanted to let people know I could live without the junk food."

When Debbie came back to school in the fall, her friends noticed she had lost weight. She tried 
to lose even more weight.

"My other friends were always on diets, and I thought I was fine."

Her concern with her weight became an obsession. She watched what everyone else ate in the 
cafeteria and felt like everyone watched her. She became self-conscious about eating and could 
not eat in front of other people.

Debbie's self-starvation turned to binging after midterm.

"I did really well for the first part of the semester. I deprived myself of anything except healthy 
food. I didn't even eat one potato chip or one piece of candy."

"The day of my birthday my friends bought me a cake. I didn't want to eat it but they finally 
convinced me to have a piece and said I deserved it."

One piece of cake reminded Debbie how much she liked sweets. Depriving herself of junk food 
for so long had increased her craving to gigantic proportions.

Debbie refused to gain weight just because she craved junk food. Her concern about her weight 
eventually became a vicious cycle.

"I couldn't eat in front of guys in the cafeteria. They made me paranoid. I waited until I got back 
to my room to binge. I felt guilty when I ate and became more depressed when I would binge. I 
would get my food in the cafeteria and pick at it and say I didn't like it because I was too 
embarrassed to eat in front of other people. I started to get really bad and my perceptions of 
myself were really distorted."

Debbie would starve herself all day except for a few vegetables. Her roommate usually left at 
night so after picking at her food at Professional Food-Service Management Debbie would go 
back to her room and eat alone. She would sneak to the vending machine and eat junk food 
when no one could see her.

"I tried laxatives but they didn't work so I started to exercise excessively. I would binge twice a 
day on any food, usually on high-calorie junk food. I quit eating regular food and once I started 
eating I couldn't stop."

Laxatives, diuretics and self-induced vomiting allow other bulimics to purge themselves but 
Debbie tried and failed to induce vomiting and saw limited results from other tactics.

"I thought I was fine. I wasn't starving myself so I knew I wasn't anorectic and I didn't throw up 
so I didn't think I was bulimic."

Debbie lost her Validine in November. When she did not replace it for three weeks, her 
roommate and peer adviser became suspicious. She stopped going to the cafeteria and no one 
ever saw her eat. Her peer adviser and hall director talked to her and convinced her to seek 
counseling at the Student Health Clinic. The counseling helped Debbie notice the warning signs 
she previously ignored.

"Food was still constantly on my mind. I always thought about what I would eat at my next 
meal. I didn't think I would ever be able to eat in front of other people again."

(Page 96)

OBSESSION . . . continued from page 95

Debbie went home for Thanksgiving one week after her peer adviser approached her. Despite 
the counseling, she did not eat anything at the family dinner. She had lost almost twenty pounds 
by this time. She said her mother noticed but waited until Debbie came back to school to 
mention it.

"My mom called me and told me she was worried about me and had already set up an 
appointment with a psychologist at home."

Debbie could not hide her problem any longer. She always felt guilty but could not control her 
binges and did not want to gain weight.

"There are a lot of overweight people at school and I just thought I was the same size as them." 
The repeated binges prevented her from losing any more weight. When she went home for 
Christmas she took her eating disorder with her.

She talked to a therapist at home and realized the extent of her problem but still could not 
control it.

She described one day during Christmas break when she "ate everything in sight" because no 
one else was home. She became so frustrated with herself that she called the BASH (Bulimia 
Anorexia Self-Help) hot line and talked to the counselor for 40 minutes.

Debbie visited the therapist and became more aware of how she could control her problem.

"Whenever anyone talks about diet and exercise it sparks my interest. I did try to do it the 
healthy way at first but once you start binging it's just not healthy."

Losing weight the healthy way began the summer before her sophomore year through a 
certified weight loss program. The more weight Debbie lost the more she became obsessed with 
food.

"I thought about food constantly and it became either a punishment or a reward. I felt guilty if I 
ever ate over 1,000 calories a day. Sometimes I felt like an animal because of my bizarre eating 
habits."

The turning point came the day she sat in the snack bar reading over the list of
warning signs.

"I felt like I could have gone on forever and no one would have ever known. My hair was falling 
out, my gums were always bad and I was always cold but no one would say anything to me."

No one said anything at first, but, fortunately for Debbie, her peers finally confronted her. 
Although eating disorders were not a recent development, acknowledgment of them only 
recently became a national trend. Like Debbie's friends, people ignored or hesitated to mention 
anorexia or bulimia. Because the disorder often began as a diet gone awry, a common 
misconception led people to believe eating disorders were purely physical problems.

Experts discovered that emotional and mental problems were underlying causes. An 
unwillingess to discuss the underlying problem often caused the obsession. Debbie said she 
would never be able to tell her mother everything.

"She just didn't understand. She thought it could be instantly cured with a pill but it couldn't. 
This was an addiction like any other addiction."

Like other addictions, the first stage of treatment began by identifying the underlying causes of 
the problem. One common treatment for eating disorders included the involvement of the 
patient's entire family in counseling. Dr. Joe Kropp, a psychologist with the Kirksville Osteopathic 
Medical Center, treats NMSU students. He said the problem often begins as a denial of sexuality 
or discomfort with the whole idea of sex for adolescents entering puberty, but college students 
might have other underlying causes.

"Often it was a general sense of being out of control," Kropp said. "One thing people could 
control was what went in your mouth and the psychological reason may have started with the 
patient's family."

One reason for Debbie's binging stemmed from her family's approach to food. She has a big 
Italian family and everyone always ate a lot. Her father forced her to eat every meal but it did 
not matter because she always found an activity to burn excess calories. When she came to 
college she retained the same eating habits but had stopped growing and spent more time 
studying and less time exercising.

Debbie's problems resembled others eating disorders because of their origin. Kropp said 
anorexia usually started as a diet. With bulimia the person may have been unhappy with herself 
and what she ate so she binged and purged to gain control of her eating.

This effort to gain control could backfire and result in serious medical complications and 
possible death. The victim strived to lose more weight or began to binge even more while 
ignoring the possible results.

Debbie noticed her perceptions of herself and others became grossly distorted. This was not 
surprising in a country where 40 percent of the population thought they were too fat, according 
to a national survey conducted for Weight Watchers International.

For college students, the motivation to lose weight came from peers, fashion magazine models, 
and the media; society dictated that thin is in. Thin might have been in but doctors warned 
against carrying diets to extremes. Pop-singer Karen Carpenter did carry her obsession to an 
extreme. She died as a result of complications from anorexia.

Debbie found help before her physical complications became as serious as Karen Carpenter's. 
However, Debbie said she still found it difficult to eat in front of other people and was very picky

Off-campus students find entrees that fit a college budget

Residence hall restrictions, scheduled meal times and quiet hours often caused many students 
to make the move to off-campus living. While they enjoyed the independence, they quickly 
found out that besides paying bills, students had to cook for themselves.

A college student's budget didn't require Ramen Noodles for every meal, but eating steak and 
shrimp was not a common occurrence.

Some students allotted twenty dollars a week on groceries. However this cost did not include 
trips to the pizza parlors and hamburger joints.

"I bought mostly prepackaged frozen meals," sophomore Tina Johnson said. "I try to keep on a 
healthy diet. It is not the budget that affects me as much as the time to cook and clean up after 
myself."

Time consumption was the major factor to consider in preparing foods because most college 
students ate on the run. This meant quick stops at local fast food restaurants, which took up a 
great deal of student incomes.

The most popular meals for students included macaroni and cheese, canned soups and stews 
and the classical peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

Because these entrees were not on everyone's favorite food list, the final alternative meant 
purchasing a validine. At a cost of $500 a semester, students were entitled to 3 meals a day.

"It's nice if you don't like the hastle of cooking," junior Karl Spuhl said. "That's the main reason I 
like it. I don't have the time to spend cooking and I get a more rounded diet than if I cooked for 
myself."

With the active lifestyles of students, meals were sometimes a hassle for off-campus residents. 
As far as most were concerned, nothing could beat one of Mom's homecooked meals.

The Buck Stops Where?

"I love money and I will do anything to get money," proclaimed freshman Neal Oelger as his 
attitude toward money.

Oelger attended college only to increase his earning power. For Oelger, cash became not a mere 
tool for bartering, but rather a prize -- a prize obtained however he could get it, whether it 
meant tricking the government out of Social Security dollars or by swindling innocent 
consumers.

Of course Oelger was an extreme case and others had a distinctly opposite point of view. Some 
attended Northeast for the sole purpose of satisfying their intellectual desires and contributing 
their lives to public service.

Most fell somewhere in the middle of the two extremes, not claiming money as their only goal, 
but instead considering it a necessity and nice to have around.

One problem college students could not avoid was a lack of money. Students generally accepted 
a lack of money as a fact of life.

Limited budgets did not prevent students from occasionally roaming the aisles of stores. They 
scanned the aisles for necessary items bearing discounted price tags. "New" articles of clothing 
came from rummaging through roommates' closets. Once a semester, students would storm the 
Reiger Armory for a surplus clothing sale. Some students worked at local clothing stores not only 
for the paychecks, but also for the employee discount. Full-and part-time jobs helped students 
make ends meet.

Not all students thought money was harder to save just because they were in college. Freshman 
Mike Martin considered his tastes a bit more cultivated. "It was easy to save money in Kirksville 
because there wasn't any place to spend it," Martin said.

Freshman Erich Riesenberg cited his philosophy as "A penny saved is a penny earned, but a 
penny stolen counts double."

Most students did not resort to such tactic. They turned to their parents for cash. "Dad, could 
you put a couple more bucks in my checking account?" could often be heard in the vicinity of 
pay phones around campus. Unfortunately, the money did not always make it on time.

"I'm $13.40 overdrawn on my checking account," freshman Jennifer Smutz said. "It's the only 
money I have in the world, or, rather, the only money that I don't have."

Credit cards, or plastic cash, came into most students' lives after campus organizations 
sponsored fundraisers to recruit students to apply for them.

Credit cards, or plastic cash, came into most students' lives after campus organizations 
sponsored fundraisers to recruit students to apply for them. This allowed students to apply for 
the cards right away and have monthly bills sent directly to them.

Credit cards could also be considered a disadvantage. Some students chose to avoid the hassle 
by not applying for them.

"First, I could not afford one," junior Ed Huels said. "Second, I think they are a rip-off because of 
the finance charges. Third, I do not think I could handle it if I had one."

Some students chose business management as a major, but money management figured into 
everyone's lives. Academic credit might be more difficult to earn but students agreed it might be 
easier to manage after all.

An academic investment

College. What's the first thought that comes to your mind when this word is mentioned? 
Independence, stress, and homework are common answers. But what about money? Isn't that 
what most of us needed anyway?

Room and board cost $1024 per semester for a two-person room in a residence hall. Add six 
hundred dollars for in state tuition. The bills added up.

Three different levels of financial aid existed. The first category, grants and scholarships, did not 
have to be paid back and were acquired through either local service clubs or through the state. 
Ranging from $250 to $2200, a grant was based on a student's income if they were 
independent, or their parent's income if they were dependent.

Another grant program established by the state, Vocational Rehabilitation, provided financial 
aid to those students with some type of handicap. Students with this type of grant were 
required to maintain a minimum 2.0 GPA.

Scholarships differed from grants in that they were based on academic abilities, and not 
necessarily financial need. Some scholarships required certain majors to be declared in order to 
receive the money.

The second opportunity for financial aid came through the Work-Study Program. This program 
enabled students to meet college expenses by working on campus at jobs to benefit the 
University. Generally, they worked a maximum of 20 hours a week and were paid minimum 
wage.

The last way to receive financial aid was through a loan that was based strictly on the student's 
needs. Guaranteed Student Loans, authorized by the federal government, were available 
through local assets, such as banks. Unlike grants and scholarships, loans had to be paid back. 
Repayment started after the student received his degree. The recipient had up to 10 years to 
pay back the debt.

So how did your peers pay for their education? Did these different financial aid programs 
offered by the University really work?

"My scholarship really helped a lot because my parents didn't have to worry at all about paying 
for tuition," said Michelle Springer, freshman.

The work-study program helped many students earn money for college. Freshman Jennifer 
Monson worked in the language lab.

"Work-study helped pay for my college as well as allowing me to earn extra money," she said.

Some students did not receive any financial help from the university or a bank.

"My parents paid for my schooling and they thought I should help, but I didn't have a job that 
allowed me to earn money," freshman Bev Carter said.

This too, was not uncommon. Some students financed themselves through college, and others 
relied on financial assistance from their parents. But for many, the University's financial aid 
programs were the only way to attend school.

Grants restore student's finances

The Vocational Rehabilitation Grant previously helped students with a medical disability pay for 
an education. Students deemed to have a permanent physical disability by a doctor could 
benefit from the grant for up to four years. The disability did not necessarily have to be a severe 
one. Minor disabilities could also be covered under the grant. For example, hemophilia and 
diabetes qualified.

Due to budget cuts by the Reagan Administration, the class of 1985 was the last group eligible 
for the rehabilitation grant.

"It's intended to give those with a disability a chance to get an education," said senior Ron 
Tucker who had a back injury.

"It's better than having them rely on Social Security." Students could apply for the grant at a 
Missouri Division Vocational Rehabilitation Office. The building at 304 South Franklin housed the 
Kirksville office. Once confirmed, students picked up the grant at the Financial Aid Office.

"We usually have 90-100 students a year recieve the grant," Melinda Wood, director of Financial 
Aid, said. "The grant also applies toward any needed equipment such as wheelchairs, not just 
tuition."

Recipients were either part-time or full-time students. However, they had to show progress in 
school to continue receiving the grant.

On-the-road-again

The engine grinds and the wheels begin to turn. Students test their independence, going to new 
places without parental supervision and discovering exciting, new adventures beyond the realm 
of Kirksville. Road trips were a chance to escape the daily routine by driving to a specific 
destination or just driving for the purpose of driving. Additional campus parking allowed more 
students to bring cars to school and a decrease in gasoline prices provided opportunities for 
students to explore life outside of Kirksville.

"Kirksville just doesn't offer what other cities do," sophomore Christy Spears said. "It gets really 
boring around here, and I enjoy getting away."

Not everyone used boredom as an excuse for travel. Other reasons students left the security of 
campus were to visit friends attending other colleges, for shopping sprees to Columbia and 
Quincy or for excursions to metropolitan areas such as Chicago, St. Louis and Kansas City. These 
trips were often planned on an impulse with complicated directions put together on the spur of 
the moment.

"A bunch of us went to Chicago one Saturday," sophomore Kim Wood said. "We'd all been there 
before, but it was my roommate's favorite city and she wanted to go back. So we just did it."

Shopping was a good excuse for junior Michael Naber to leave the city limits of Kirksville.

"I go to Columbia to go shopping," Naber said. "It's not that Kirksville merchants aren't polite. 
Columbia has better malls and a better selection."

Spears added that road trips allowed her to get away from the humdrum life of homework, 
classes and tests. Small everyday problems could be "driven" away as miles went by on the 
highway while concentrating on what awaited the end of the journey.

Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end as Sunday rolls around. School takes

While many students had access to automobiles, many other students had to rely on less 
expensive modes of transportation to get around.

One of the biggest expenses of owning a car was the amount that one had to spend on 
maintenance and to keep the car in running condition. Freshman Scott Lute did not know if his 
car would make it from home.

"Going back and forth from home to here would be a strain, I don't know how many times it 
would make it," Lute said. "Besides, it's too expensive to worry about now."

Senior Theron Powell said he remembered not having a car as a freshman.

"I hated it," Powell said. "I always had to depend on someone else for a ride home
from parties. Sometimes I would get stranded and end up walking back to campus."

Additional expenses occurred if Safety and Security happened to find your car parked in the 
wrong sticker zone. Parking tickets were a major complaint among many student car owners.

"I've gotten about 40 dollars worth of tickets so far this year," senior Mike Jenkins said. "1 can 
never find a spot anywhere except in the faculty section."

"I think parking is a definite problem for the students," senior Dorothy McNally said. "It's pretty 
ridiculous when you spend 20 minutes looking for a spot."

Car registration meant another expense student car owners complained about. Both on campus 
and commuter students were required to purchase a $7 registration sticker if they wished to use 
university parking lots without being fined.

Looking at campus, one could easily see that the most popular form of transportation was 
walking. Without a doubt it was the least expensive way to travel short distances. Junior 
Rochelle Dale said all you needed was a sturdy pair of shoes and you were set.

"A nice pair of hiking boots made going to campus safer and almost as quick," Dale said.

Bikes and mopeds were also a popular way to get around. Sophomore Robin Walton said her 
bike was a great way to get around.

Students without wheels did not have to worry about parking tickets, added expenses or finding 
a parking space before dashing to class, but life with or without wheels meant finding a way to 
get around.

Sports

In the midst of tough standards, students needed something extra To help them along the way. 
Extra course loads mixed with homework and brought tension and stress. Students used athletic 
competition to take out aggression.

Injury and inconsistency hurt, but despite the obstacles, some teams prospered. Recruits 
replaced graduating seniors or other team members.

Wrestling, a once-pinned program, returned after an absence of three years. Other sports had 
the experience, but never put it all together and fell short of season's goals.

Despite careful planning, the unexpected twists of sports often ended up on the winning side all 
year long. In the end it undoubtedly was a flukish year.

Track

Athletes stretch their limits

Individual efforts overcome odds despite many injuries

The men's and women's track teams fought injuries to finish respectably last spring. Mead 
coaches, John Cochrane (women's) and Ed Schneider (men's), were skeptical about the 
conference outcome because of injuries suffered prior to the MIAA meet. Individual efforts gave 
both the men and women fourth-place finishes, easing their worries.

"It was a good team effort overall," Schneider said. "About everybody that competed in the 
conference meet scored. Some of them had very good individual performances and maybe did a 
little better than I expected."

Junior pole vaulter Dave Bingaman won the pole vault and qualified for the national meet, while 
sophomore hammer thrower Rich Hayward won his event and set a new school record of 
12711".

Other medalists and school record breakers were sophomore Curtis Elam (800 meter run), 
senior Mike Zuber (long jump), senior Ryle Beers (long jump) and senior Royce Hardesty (1,500 
meter run).

The women were led by sophomore Kerry Knepper (10,000 meter run), junior Karen Bastert 
(triple jump) and sophomore Karla Ringger (hurdles), who finished first in the 100- and 400-
meter hurdles despite a late-season injury.

Regardless of outstanding individual efforts, neither team had competed nationally since 1985. 
Some believed training facilities and strict academic requirements were causes.

"We have limited facilities," Schneider said.

"Some of the high school athletes we are trying to recruit have better facilities in their high 
schools than we have here. But I still think the athletes that come here have just as good of an 
opportunity to reach their full potential as if they would go to some other school. It really boils 
down to how hard the individuals want to
work."

"The athletes I've seen come in here the last couple of years have been very talented both 
athletically and academically," junior Travis Mackey said.

"I don't think our talent is lacking any because of the University's high academic standards. In 
fact, I think it's getting better," Mackey said. "We scored over 100 points at the conference meet 
this year which is much higher than we've done in the last few years. He said the athletes had 
good academic discipline habits, and that carried over into their sports. "Our talent is on the rise 
and we could surprise some people in the future."

Young talent burdens team

Inexperience leads to disappointing Bulldog season

The baseball team finished the '88 season with a mark of 13-17, an improvement over last year's 
record of 11-18. The Bulldogs placed third in the MIAA North Division. Coach Sam Nugent was 
pleased with his team.

"I thought we'd be a competitive team this spring, even though we're rebuilding with a lot of 
young players," Nugent said.

Although the Dogs finished below .500, they managed to tie or break 16 records

Four of these were set by senior outfielder and co-captain Denny McHenry. McHenry also 
received the team's Most Valuable Player Award and was the first Bulldog since 1983 to earn 
MIAA first-team honors. He ended the season with a batting average of .318.

Senior Jevne Arreazola, third baseman for the Bulldogs, attributed much of the team's problem 
toward the inexperience of the team.

"Basically we had a lot of young guys. We lost three or four conference games by one point. We 
never put it all together with all the young talent. That's what we had to have to win."

Another senior, first baseman Bill King also left the team. King, also a co-captain, broke two 
team records, including most put-outs in a season (216), and highest field percentage for a 
career (.982).

"It makes me feel best that I broke the career fielding percentage, because it was my senior year 
and I wanted to do well," King said.

Returning last year was freshman second-baseman Darrin Koch, the team's Outstanding 
Newcomer, who led the team with a batting average of .400.

By 1990 the North Division will be expanding to 12 teams, making it one of the largest divisions. 
Nugent said the North Division is one of the toughest in MIAA Division II. He believed his team 
would improve this year since the Bulldogs only lost two starting players from last year's roster.

Sophomore Mike Sundet said, "We were young and inexperienced. We had four starting 
pitchers that were freshmen. I think we will have a better year next year."

King said he was optimistic about the '89 season and the return of 21 freshmen to the team's 
roster.

"The only thing that kept us from the playoffs was inexperience, but the experience will be there 
next year," King said. 

Safe is the call as Jevne Arreazola, sr., tries to make the tag. fie ended with a .911 fielding 
percentage.

Concentration allows Wes Smith, fr., to throw a strike. Smith pitched in five games and had an 0-
2 record.

Poised to throw to first base, Steve Gotsch was a spot player at third base.

Lady 'Dogs hit Final Four

Young team takes stance and overcomes odds

For the second time in the last three seasons the softball squad captured fourth place honors in 
the NCAA Division II level. A combination of pitching, hitting and Fielding earned them national 
honor.

The pitching consisted of one player who also led the the Bulldogs in hitting (.304) and ranked 
second in team Fielding (.971).

Pitcher and third baseman, Deb Weno, senior, received All-American honors. Weno's 0.87 ERA, 
batting average and fielding earned her First team national status, and she became the first 
NMSU softball player to do so since 1983.

"Weno was an excellent leader as well as a player," Mead Coach Tarry Parrish said. 'She led 
verbally as well as by example, made great grades, and conference MVP. When she was on the 
field her presence was always known."

But one player cannot carry a team to a national tournament. Leaders emerged from all areas of 
Parrish's team. One area was youth.

"We were young," Parrish said, "very, very young. We had days when we played like freshmen 
and days when we played like seniors. Our knees shook a little bit, but it was a valuable 
experience that will help us in the upcoming year."

Three freshmen contributed to the hitting. Missy Pewe and Trish Horn boasted .298 and .290 
averages. Morn received all-regional honors and Trish Lillygren earned all-tournament in 
regional competition.

Veterans Sherry Thompson, Andrea Bambrough, Jennifer Fields, Joann Ruddy and Robin 
Houseman also received recognition on the MIAA level, regional level or tournament team.

This was NMSU's third national tournament appearance. The women's 35-14 record broke the 
record for the most wins. Nine other individual records were broken.

Tension builds as the ball nears first. First baseman Trish Lillygren, fr., had a .978 fielding

Unlikely conference champs

Opportunity knocks door-to-door for perfect match

The fall of 1987 was a low point for the women's tennis team. Only four of the six roster 
positions were filled, forcing coach Robert Azuci to recruit door-to-door in the residence halls. 
The team he collected had only three players with varsity collegiate experience.

When the team went to Florida over spring break, they were a long way from top form. "We 
played good teams in Florida and did all right," sophomore Bertha Hernandez said. "The tough 
competition helped all of us."

After losing to conference rivals Southwest Baptist and Northwest Missouri State, they were still 
within striking distance of a title. "Losing to Northwest was almost as good as beating them," 
junior Trish Cope said. "We'd come so far since the start of the season."

"The losses to Southwest Baptist and Northwest proved we could be close. We were mentally 
tough and ready for the conference tournament," Azcui said.

"The girls' unity had to be the single most important thing (in winning
the title," Azciu said. "They cheered one another and never got down emotionally."
During the conference, Cope took first honors at no. 2 singles and teamed with senior Jackie 
Marquardt to win the no. 1 doubles crown. Marquardt also won the no. 3 singles title while 
Hernandez compiled a 15-7 record.

Despite the team's grim beginnings, their resolve to work hard and win produced one of the 
most rewarding and unexpected success stories of Bulldog sports.

Team nets string of injuries

Faced with misfortune, but team members prosper

With last season's roster almost intact, the men's tennis team hoped the string of four 
consecutive second place conference finishes would be broken with a championship.

Coach Roberto Azcui replaced last year's top player with sophomore Ricky Marcotulli and gave 
his team the toughest schedule in years. But the team could not prepare for the misfortune that 
plagued them all season. Problems began with Marcotulli's injury and sophomore Rada Torres's 
ineligibility.

"The ineligibility and injuries were terrible for us," Azcui said. "We knew things would be tough 
by the first meet and things never got better."

In Florida, the team had only one win in their first seven matches but played aggressively against 
top ranked teams. They returned to Missouri only to fall prey once again to injuries.

"Eric Fleming was out with tendonitis for two weeks. Dave Robaska sprained an ankle and was 
out for three. One weekend we only had five players and had to forfeit two matches," Azcui 
said.

"The injuries killed us. We never got any momentum," sophomore Timmer Willing said. "The 
whole season we lacked depth. By conference our confidence was pretty low."

The Dogs had some success in salvaging their reputation at the conference tournament. Junior 
Mike Taylor and sophomore Jason Sublette took second at no. 3 doubles and freshman Alan 
Kramer also placed second at no. 6 singles.

The season of clouds had individual shine. Junior Mark Caldwell reached no. 3 singles, compiling 
the only winning record on the team.

"We certainly overcame a lot to be where we were at the end. I think that says something for 
the character of the guys. I can't be disappointed in that," Azcui said.

A steady eye aids Mark Caldwell, jr., backhand a ball to an opponent. Caldwell finished with a

Women par for the course

Team competes in national tournament, finishes third

In their fourth year of play, the women's golf team placed fifth in the NCAA Division II.

Last season, the women competed against tough teams. Their improvement was obvious as 
they defeated several opponents, received a bid to the national tournament and earned third 
place in the NCAA Division II standings. Few athletic programs have made such progress in such 
short time.

"If you go play a Division I school, the first year they grind your nose into it. The next year you're 
Kind of respectable against them. The next year you're even closer to them and you start to say 
'Hey, we can compete with these guys! " Head Coach Sam Lesseig said.

Lesseig s theory was effective, putting NMSU on the map as quickly as any Division II team in 
collegiate golf. Leading the women in the national tournament were sophomore D'Anne Gross, 
ranked 11th and shooting a 250, and senior Kristin Lesseig with a 251. In the regular season, 
Lesseig led with an 87.1 average, followed by Gross (88.6), senior Beth Folsom (89.6) and 
freshman LaDawn Zitur (90.7). Freshman Lisa Stevens ended the season with a 94.4.

Coach Lesseig was pleased with the team's progress thus far. "We're in great shape for no 
longer than we've had the program," Lesseig said, "but there's still a big gap between where we 
are and where established programs are. The main difference between the two teams that beat 
us at nationals is they play year-round. Part of it includes the fact that they also offer six fullride 
scholarships, but the major difference is in the climate factor. Those two teams play year-round 
because of where they're located geographically."

But the women's intense work habits enabled them to beat southern and western schools. "Our 
girls have worked extremely hard on their golf here," Lesseig said. "They are selfmotivated in 
that they want to work on their games and improve, not only in golf, but in the classroom as 
well."

Some schools competing against NMSU have players the coaches know will not be academically 
eligible the following year.

"I don't think that's what a program should be," Lesseig said. "I think all of the athletic programs 
at any school, primarily Division II, should be designed so the student can participate in sports 
while he or she is getting an education. Education is primary; athletics are extracurricular."

Golf

Solid swing into success

Hard work and little rewards produce a winning team

The men's golf program emerged as one of the most promising, athletically and academically. 
Bulldog golfers qualified for and competed in the NCAA Div. II tournament for the fourth 
consecutive season. Last year they finished 14th nationally and sent their first player to the All-
American first team.

For a university of slightly more than 6,000 this was impressive. The team battled difficult 
aspects of golf; climate, school size and financial recruitment resources.

The possibility of attracting good players seems slim. NMSU golfers can only play nine months 
during the year. Head coach William Richerson believed the determined golfer with professional 
possibilities would probably have chosen a Division I school where he could play full-time and 
get a free education. NMSU and conference affiliates were limited in athletic financial aid, but 
larger schools offered full rides to their top six players.

But Northeast did attract good players.

"NMSU is getting a big name for itself academically," junior Dan Mulhearn, MIAA medalist, said. 
"Plus, we don't travel as much as Division I schools, so we're here for school more."

"In the last two years, the golfers I have had spent far more time studying on the road than I can 
ever remember," Richerson said. "They're so conscientious about their grades."

NMSU took four firsts, one second, two thirds, and won their fifth consecutive conference 
medalist last year.

Sophomore J.P. Velasco became the first Bulldog golfer selected to the All-American first team. 
He averaged a team-leading 75.6 and finished 11th in the national tournament.

Other top Bulldog finishers this season included sophomore Jeff Rodenburg - 80.2, sophomore 
Tim Albers - 81.5, senior Rick Maharry 82.2, and previous medalist, senior Corey Lesseig - 83.3.

Feature

Wrestling returns to campus

Once pinned grapplers square off with rebuilding task

For 21 years NMSU had a strong wrestling program. From 1965-1986 they captured five MIAA 
conference titles and turned out three All-Americans. In 1986, wrestling was dropped as an 
intercollegiate sport.

The program ended when the University of Missouri-Rolla dropped their wrestling program 
leaving only three schools in the MIAA. To be considered in a conference league sport, four 
schools must compete.

With only three teams in the MIAA, scheduling had to be done out-of-state and the program did 
not have that kind of budget. The wrestling program, at that time, was also shrouded in 
controversy.

The wrestling coach, Don Frazier, was fired after supplying alcohol to minors on the wrestling 
team while returning home from the MIAA conference meet. Kenneth Gardner, former athletic 
director, said that the two incidents were unrelated.

Last summer, Acting Athletic Director Sam Lesseig announced there would be a wrestling team 
in 1988-1989. "Upon the re-evaluation of our sports program in regard to sports in the area 
(Iowa, Ill. and Mo.), popularity indicated there was interest in wrestling at the collegiate level," 
Lesseig said.

He also announced the appointment of Michael Knight as head coach. Knight previously held 
positions in Nebraska and Florida.

Recruiting presented a problem last year because the University reinstated the program so late.

"Recruiting quality athletes was a difficult task, the majority of the team was made up of walk-
ons," Knight said. Knight found three recruits despite the limited amount of time he had to work 
with. Freshman Scott Calabria, Bucky Mieras, sophomore and Eric Ashby, sophomore, joined the 
team.

The last season the Bulldogs competed in the MIAA, they finished with a 5-10 dual meet record 
and notched a fourth place finish in the MIAA tournament. Despite the losing record, the 
Bulldogs broke two school records; the most falls and the most escapes in a single season.

"The possibilities for success this season will be slim, but not impossible," Knight said. "I am 
more concerned with outfitting a team and developing a quality program with good team unity; 
that will promote good recruits for the seasons to come."

Kickers reach goals early

Intentions reset after UMSL win and top 20 ranking

After their first winning season and national ranking in 1987, the women's soccer team 
continued to build in '88. Their ambitious goals (a top 20 ranking and a victory over the 
University of Missouri-St. Louis, were accomplished midway through the season, but the team 
fell one victory short of the NCAA Division II playoffs.

The team proved itself early with a 4-1 record, bursting into the top 20 at No. 14. After two 
upsetting losses, they traveled to Wisconsin.

"We beat Wisconsin-Milwaukee when they were at their peak (ranked No. 9) and in front of 
their homecoming crowd," Head Coach Al Duran said. "It was a real turnaround."

The most rewarding victory came later when the team defeated arch rival UMSL for the first 
time. The Lady Dogs carried the momentum past UMR and Carleton College (Northfield, 
Minnesota) to a No. 6 ranking.

"Breaking into the top 10 was a great achievement." Duran said. "It says a lot about the hard 
work we put in this year." The team took its No. 2 regional ranking to a showdown with No. 1 
Barry University (Miami Shores, Florida). With a postseason bid on the line, the Lady Dogs 
played well but were unable to score and lost 3-0.

"We played with a lot of heart, but they put the ball in the net and we didn't, and that's what 
determines the winner," Duran said.

With a competitive season record of 10-7, Duran attributed much of the team's success to 
depth.

"We had 11 or 12 players of about the same level," he said. "We had freshmen who adjusted 
immediately and who could be counted on to produce when needed."

Two valuable players last season were junior Becky Eggleston, who recorded five shutouts as 
goalkeeper, and freshman Shauna Putnam who had 14 goals and 5 assists.

Squad falls short of its goal

Young team finishes with a repectable winning record

Looking at his roster before the season, Coach Dave Poggi could smile. The prospective starting 
lineup was his strongest ever. The only question marks were whether the young team could 
adjust to collegiate soccer and avoid injury.

Unfortunately, national tournament aspirations are not fulfilled on paper, and those variables 
figured too prominently in the season's outcome.

Poggi's doubts haunted the team their first three games. They started flat and managed only 
one win.

"We didn't set the tone we wanted to," Poggi said.

The Dogs displayed their offensive potential in the Gardner Cup Classic, scoring 12 goals in two 
wins. The team seemed on track to postseason play, but the failure to put away games proved 
to be the team's Achilles' heel. The Dogs lost in double overtime to Lewis University (Palatine, IL) 
in a game they led 2-0 with six minutes to play.

"Lewis was the most disappointing loss of the season," Poggi said.

The slide continued for two more games. Injuries to Brad Gilliam, freshman, and Bob Atherton, 
senior, compounded the problem. Losses to other regional teams crippled the "Dogs playoff 
chances. A 4-0-2 finish salvaged an 11-6-3 record for the Dogs.

Despite falling short of the playoffs, some individual performances brought the team 
recognition, and three freshmen turned in remarkable seasons. Stefan Wall beat out two 
veterans for the goalkeeping job. Gilliam was voted second team all conference even though he 
missed one third of the season because of his leg injury. And Poggi described Richie Muth as the 
"piston of the engine, a tireless worker all over the field."

"The play of the freshmen definitely made a difference in the season," junior Al Van Nevel said. 
"They showed maturity and poise throughout the year."

Poggi concluded that the season was undoubtedly successful.

"Overcoming odds marks success. We were able to do that."

Cross Country

Women harriers successful

Team grabs top 20 ranking despite inexperience

The women's cross country team finished the season ranked 20th in the NCAA Division II poll 
and junior Kerry Knepper repeated as an All-American with a fifth place national performance.

The team's roster included eight freshmen, three hampered by injuries, and a top runner who 
claimed she didn't run well until the end of the season.

The Lady Bulldogs had never been ranked at season's end and Knepper became only the second 
All-American, placing 19th at nationals. She was the first two-time All-American.

"It (national Championship -- Clinton, Miss.) was my best race of the year," Knepper said. "I felt 
relaxed the whole time."

Knepper's fifth-place was the highest any NMSU woman had ever placed nationally. She ran a 
time of 17:19 on a 5,000-meter course.

"I didn't think I improved this season, although you can't really tell in cross country," Knepper 
said. "A lot of top runners (from other schools) were gone, had graduated. I didn't run well, until 
the last meet."

Senior Mary Wulff also qualified for nationals, for the first time. At the nationals she placed 
58th.

"As a team, it was probably our best season, considering last season we only had five runners," 
senior Sherry Wulff, Mary's twin sister said. "The year before that was good, but I'd say this was 
our best."

Coach John Cochrane was pleased about the season but he wished the year had brought higher 
rankings.

"I'd take a season like this every year, as opposed to some that you have," Cochrane said. "We 
would've liked to have been second in the region, and I thought we should've been, but with all 
the experience we had to gain in one year it was amazing."

Freshman Vi Nelson was one of the injured Lady Bulldogs.

"I don't think (our) injuries hurt the team that much," Nelson said. "It did because all the girls 
weren't running, but the girls who were running and were hurt didn't hurt the team."

"We had enough depth for probably the first time ever to get through the injuries," Cochrane 
said.

Knepper said she was optimistic about the future.

"If everyone comes back (next year), I'd say we'll win the conference and we could go to 
nationals as a team," Knepper said.

"I think the team will be much more successful in the future because we had such a young 
team,"Sherry Wulff said.

Runners prime for next year

Return of top men gives coach hope for winning season

Fatigue sets in as Tracy Grant, fr., finishes. The team placed fifth in regionals.
The cross country season ran a typical course and ended with familiar results for a younger than 
usual team.

As in the previous two falls, the Bulldogs finished second at the Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic 
Association conference meet. The team managed a fifth-place regional showing and failed to 
qualify for nationals either as a team or individually.

"The one disappointment (of the season) was that we didn't qualify for nationals," Coach Ed 
Schneider said. "I thought we could have done better, but we just didn't do it on that one day. 
We just didn't get the job done. These guys were really fun to work with. They were very 
dedicated. We did a lot of two- and three-a-day (practices)."

Junior Stan Johnson said, "We were expecting to do better, but we were putting more of an 
emphasis on next year. The major difference (to past seasons) was we were a young team. We 
ran pretty well as a team, but not like we wanted to."

Johnson led the 'Dogs down the stretch, (3rd in MIAA, 20th in region), along with freshman Rob 
Jensen (5th and 31st), senior Craig Langemeier (17th and 33rd), junior Robert Lawrence (13th 
and 44th) and sophomore Tony McCoy (14th and 42nd).

Langemeier, Lawrence and Johnson, who missed the '87 campaign because of injuries, "did a 
good job both in daily workouts and in meets" by loaning some of their experience to their 
younger teammates, Schneider said.

The loss of Langemeier could be offset by the return of senior Don Obert and senior Tom 
Hackworth, two redshirted performers who competed at the national level the previous two 
years.

"We only lose one of our top seven (runners), so we have the potential to have a very successful 
year with all the young kids. The freshmen who got experience this year will come back stronger 
and help us more next year," Schneider said.

McCoy, noting the "learning experience for us younger guys," said he is looking forward to his 
junior season. Johnson, however, sounded the most optimistic.

"I'm excited about next year. It has the potential to be our best season, if we do the work," 
Johnson said. "We'll definitely be one of the top teams in the conference. I think we'll be able to 
run close to SEMO (Southeast Missouri State University, Cape Girardeau). We're hoping for a 
lot."

Cheerleading

Blue year for cheerleaders

Squad earns best possible awards at Universal Camp

Following their trip to Murseesburo, Tennessee in August, 11 cheerleaders participated in 
evaluations and competitions at the Universal Cheerleaders Association Camp. The five females 
and six males practiced eight hours a day for five days in the humid weather and went through 
an evaluation each night.

The Division II cheerleaders were evaluated and competed with the Division I schools. Divisions 
were decided upon by the size of the school and its number of varsity sports programs. The 
cheerleaders earned all blue ribbons, the best possible awards.

"We were just as good as the Division I schools," co-captain Dan Heinz said.

On the final night a competition was held within each division. There were 30 Division 11 
schools for the cheerleaders to compete against. They placed second with their cheer and fifth 
with the fight song. Stunts and pyramids were incorporated into both performances.

"Besides all the competition, it was really great to have Division I schools recognize us," Heinz 
said.

The mascot also went to the camp. He was evaluated alone each night.

"He did fair. We haven't had a mascot do that well in a long time" Heinz said.

The other co-captain, Brenda Carmean, said the cheers taught at the camp were not the kind 
they usually did. They were cheers that required much crowd participation which wasn't to be 
found back in Kirksville. Because of this, many chants and cheers from the previous year were 
used in '88. Carmean enjoyed working on the new stunts and
pyramids, many of which could be seen at the games.

Instead of being held at the usual site, Memphis Tennessee, the camp was moved to 
Murseesburo. The new location had better facilities but was less organized according to Heinz.

During the trip, there were no problems other than a monetary one on the way home.

The University paid for everything, but the cheerleaders had some difficulty with the school's 
credit card when paying for gas. This turned the planned ten hour drive into a thirteen-hour trip. 
After the difficulty, the squad agreed their week of the blues started the year on a positive note.

As Cathy Wendt, so., falls, Dan Heinz, jr., waits to catch her. The team used stunts learned over 
the summer.

Expectations proven wrong

Three-way tie denies Bulldogs a chance at title

The Bulldog football team did not expect to finish above third place in the MIAA, after losing 14 
of 22 players from the 1987 season. The team, however, played beyond expectations and 
turned the previous year's 4-7 record into a 7-3 season, sharing the MIAA conference 
championship.

At the home opener against West Texas State the officials were late, leaving no one to officiate. 
The game was delayed for two hours before it began at 9:30 p.m. with retired local referees 
officiating.

The scheduled referees arrived with 13:10 left in the game. By the time the game ended at 
12:45 a.m., northeast had routed the Buffalos 45-28. The game received coverage in USA Today 
because the referees were late.

"I don't think the delay affected us at all," Head Coach Jack Ball said.
"We kept up our intensity level. The delay hurt them more than it hurt us."

In their conference opener against Northwest Missouri State University (Maryville), they kept 
the coveted "Hickory Stick," a symbol of the battle that has been waged between the two 
schools for the past 58 years. "It's nice to keep the stick' here because of all the tradition behind 
it," graduate assistant Kevin Gorgal said.

In a hard-fought battle against Central Missouri State University (Warrensburg), the Dogs lost a 
close 17-16 match. The loss eliminated the Dogs from winning the conference title outright, but 
they won their last three games, guaranteeing a tie with Southeast Missouri State University 
(Cape Girardeau) and CMSU for the title. This marked the first time in MIAA history that three 
teams tied for first place.

"I think we did a lot better than was expected of us," junior James McCoy said. "We worked well 
together and we did a good job."

Individual efforts highlighted the season. McCoy, a junior running back, rushed for a career-high 
828 yards, and sophomore quarterback Jeff Frost, in his first season as quarterback, passed for 
2,122 yards, leading in total offense. For his efforts, Ball was named MIAA Coach of the Year.

Inconsistency hurts season

Rollercoaster performances lead to team's downfall

Going into the 1988 season the women's volleyball team had great hopes of improving from last 
year's team that finished 24-23, and fourth in the MIAA conference.

However, inconsistency, youth, and the loss of key players hurt the Bulldogs as they finished 
with one of their worst records in a long time.

The Bulldog's tough schedule and youth on the team contributed to their poor record, Head 
Coach Debbie Masten, said.

"We started the season strong but our youth caught up to us," Masten said. "With so few 
people returning from last year's team I knew it was going to be a tough season. We played one 
of our toughest schedules ever as we played a lot of Division 1 schools and teams that were 
ranked nationally."

At times there were four people on the floor that didn't play last year, Masten said.

Masten also said the Bulldogs did well despite the youth on the team.

The Bulldogs went into conference play with a record of 2-2. But in the Missouri Intercollegiate 
Athletic Association Round-Robin Tournament the Lady Bulldogs finished fifth with a record of 
2-4.

Sophomore Haney Hoerner said the team's inconsistency created its downfall.

"It felt like we were on a rollercoaster." Hoerner said. "First we would play good and then we 
would play bad."

The main highlight of the year was a trip to the Tennessee-Martin Tournament where they took 
third out of four teams entered.

The team concluded its season with the MIAA conference championships in Cape Girardeau. The 
women finished fifth in the tournament with a 1-2 record. They lost to Southeast Missouri State 
(Cape Girardeau). They then defeated Lincoln University (Jefferson City), but lost to Southwest 
Baptist (Bolivar).

Three Lady Bulldogs were selected to All-MIAA teams. Junior co-captain Tracy Moore was 
named to the second team and senior co-captain Jackie Vowell and senior Sandra Hester were 
named honorable mention.

Hester thought the MIAA might have been lenient in naming the award winners.

"I think it made a big impression on the team," Hester said. "It gives us something to compete 
against next year."

Masten said that the team had a good chance for success in the future.

"We had a pretty fair team this year with a lot of talent, and if everyone comes back next year it 
could be a very interesting year."

Academic wealth for athletes

Athletes receive scholarly honors while playing sports

College athletes compete physically and mentally against time and their own self-motivation. 
Juggling a two to three hour a day physical workout with the stresses of everyday classes and 
homework is a challenge for all athletes. However, some athletes saw the pressure as a way to 
organize their time and excel in both athletics and academics.

Senior Karen Bastert earned a 4.0 and received the GTE Academic All-American honors while in 
track and field. Bastert ran hurdles and competed in the triple and long jumps. She believed 
track helped her manage her time and work night study sessions into her busy class and 
workout schedule.

Adidas Scholar-Athlete All-American, senior Bobby Atherton, played soccer and maintained a 
3.54 GPA. Soccer players who are either starters or major contributors to the team and who 
demonstrate high academic standards received the Adidas award.

Like Bastert, Atherton thought being an athlete helped him to manage his time better for 
practice, studies and play.

"The team practices about three hours a day and on the weekend road trips we are usually gone 
two days and one night so there is a lot of time involved in practice," he said.

Atherton said he read on the bus and studied in his hotel room at night.

"It is an honor, but I also feel I earned it," Atherton said. "I spent a lot of time to get it and the 
award gave me a way to show the effort I put into my studying."

One of Atherton's teammates, senior Butch Siering, also made the most of his academic and 
athletic careers. Siering maintained a 3.55 GPA and was elected to the MIAA Academic team 
while playing goalie for the men's soccer team.

He said he studied at night and tried to work ahead so he did not have to study on the road. If 
he did have to study he found a quiet place in the hotel and isolated himself.

Siering said he did not think about the award much, he just knew he had to practice, travel and 
study.

"It's no big deal, you just get it done because you have to," Siering said.

A proper warmup stretch helps Karen Bastert, sr., excel in track and field. Proper study habits 
helped Bastert excel off the track and helped her maintain a 4.0 GPA.

The sight of the ball leads Jennifer Chickering, jr., to set up for the kick. Chickering earned a spot 
on the United States Achievement Academy Scholastic All-American squad.

Track

Goal stresses improvement

Game plan: to be off and running on the right track

Both head coaches had the same goals as the indoor track season approached. They wanted 
team members to improve and wanted to improve on last year's fourth place conference finish.

With 20 returnees and a host of freshmen, men's head coach Ed Schneider had a good start. 
Schneider used his freshman early in the season to prepare them for the coming meets and to 
incorporate them into his game plan to see how they would perform at the collegiate level.

Although many of the meets were non-scoring, it appeared Schneider's plan worked. The squad 
took second at the Central Missouri State Invitational and placed third at the Central Missouri 
State Classic. Along the way individuals set personal bests and indoor track records.

Junior Rich Hayward qualified for nationals in the shotput while setting a personal best of 
53'3/4", and the 35-pound weight best with a 41'9" toss.

Also setting bests were senior Steve Danner in the long and high jumps, senior Kelly Marsengill 
in the 60-yard dash and the 200-meter dash and Don Obert in the mile, 5,000 meter run and 
1,000 meter run. Injuries to Obert and freshman Jeff Baker hurt the team but Schneider said he 
felt the season went well.

"We had a couple key injuries that hurt us," said Schneider. "But I've seen considerable 
improvement from everyone this season. Overall I've been pretty pleased."

Women's head coach John Cochrane watched his squad place eighth in the University of Iowa, 
Hawkeye Open. The finish at Iowa disappointed Cochrane but running against Division I teams 
prepared the team for his primary objective, the conference meet.

Like Schneider, Cochrane used his freshmen early in the season to see how they would perform. 
Cochrane said the lack of experience and the lack of a couple of good sprinters and a good 
thrower made for an 'interesting year.'

"For the most part this has been a really good team to work with," Cochran said. " We have 
maybe two exceptions out of 28. But all in all this is one of the best we've had in a long long 
time."

Junior Kerry Knepper led the womens squad. Knepper set indoor bests in the 1000 yards, 1,500 
meter run, mile run, 3,000 meter run, and the two-mile run while qualifying for nationals. 
Sophomore Stacy Roberts qualified for nationals in the high jump. She also set a best in the 
pentathalon with 2,538 total points. There were 13 other bests set in 1989, including three by 
sophomore Sandra Hester (300 yards, 440 yards and 600 yards).

Both coaches used the indoor track and field season as a springboard for the spring outdoor 
season.

Inexperience drops 'Dogs

Basketball

Future foundation built despite disappointing season

Inexperience.

Men's basketball coach Willard Sims summed up the Bulldogs' 1988-89 woes in one word. The 
experience factor took its toll on the 'Dogs after the 16th game, when their record reflected a 7-
9 overall standing in the Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association race. The final ledger read 
seven up and 19 down, including the final 10 losses.

"That (youth) is a Catch 22," Sims said. "You can't get experience without playing .... though our 
two seniors did a good job of leading, we still were an inexperienced club."

Sims' 15-man roster included six freshmen and four sophomores. "That should help us in the 
future, but it sure was frustrating this year," Sims said.

Sophomore forward Steve Schieppe, the conference's scoring leader, agreed with Sims' 
assessment. "There were so many games that were so close," he said. "It would come down to 
the last couple minutes, and that's where experience becomes valuable. We'd get frustrated 
because we had played well enough to win, then we'd lose it at the end."

Only once were the 'Dogs never in a game -- a 102-70 blowout at Northwest Missouri State 
University (Maryville) -- but they recovered to almost knock off NWMSU when the Bearcats 
came to Pershing Arena. That one-point (82-81) loss marked the second of its kind and the 13th 
defeat by nine points or less. The hardest blow of all came in an 84-79 home overtime loss to 
Southeast Missouri State University (Cape Girardeu), then ranked third among national 
Collegiate Athletic Association Division II teams.

"Without crying wolf," Sims said, "injuries to junior starting forward Mike Stenger, then to his 
replacement, freshman Matt Clements, hurt the Dogs' substitution rotation down the stretch. 
The 'Dogs ranked near the MIAA bottom in both categories, despite being among the leaders in 
field goal and three-point shooting.

The team finished last in the MIAA with a 2-12 conference record.

Final Record 2-25

Women's basketball fans, coaches and players wanted to forget the 1988-89 season ever 
happened. The annals of women's basketball history documented a 2-25, last-place showing in 
the conference, just one volume from the finest story yet told.

One year after reaching the MIAA playoffs for the first time, Tarry Parrish's crew fell to their 
lowest level ever -- ending the campaign on a 13-game losing streak and breaking school records 
in the process. The Lady Dogs won fewer and lost more games than any of their predecessors. 
The ladies never won a conference game en route to their basement finish.

"Nobody likes to lose, and my girls don't like to lose, but we're young," Parrish said.

Youth equaled inexperience, and in this case, inexperience meant a lack of leadership and a 
turnover total that took winning out of the players' and coaches' hands.

Sophomore Susan Theroff began the season at point, then fell victim to the turnover bug and 
lost her starting position to the team's only senior, Kelly Boyd. Boyd hung around long enough to 
anguish with a team record for miscues.

"The first thing you do (wrong), you think, Oh no, here we go again," Theroff said. "We have to 
get away from it (basketball) for awhile to get our confidence back."

Sophomore Felicia Sutton was the team leader for the Bulldogs. For the second straight year, 
Sutton led the team in scoring and rebounding. She also broke the school and conference single-game (27) 
and single-season records for most boards. She tied the record as a freshman, and moved into the 
MIAA's top 10 career leaders.

"Felicia's a great player, you've got to give credit where it's due," Theroff said. "(But) most of our 
offense is geared to Felicia. We (outside players) sort of lose confidence in our shooting because 
we're too concerned with getting the ball into the post."

Parrish encouraged the team, which consisted of two sophomores, one senior and the rest who 
were freshmen to "do the best job they can and set individual goals they can reach" for the 
team to improve next year. The only way for the ladies to go is up.

Swimming

Lady 'Dogs make a splash

Women outdistance opponents enroute to victory

The women's swim team entered the natatorium in early September for practice with one goal 
on their minds: to win the Midwest Regional Championships.

The season had its share of peaks and valleys but through hard work and dedication the team 
ended the regular season with a 5-3 dual meet record and a first place finish at the Grinnell 
Invitational. Only one big meet remained -- the Midwest Regional Championships.

Their early season goal became a reality in mid-February when the Lady Bulldogs outdistanced 
their competition in Omaha, Neb. by claiming the championship with 468 points, exactly 80 
points ahead of second place Eastern Illinois University (Charleston) and Creighton University 
(Omaha), took third.

"This (the regional win) was definitely the highlight of our season," Head Coach Chuck Arabas 
said. "We had a very successful season overall despite the fact that we were a very young 
squad."

The women definitely saved their best effort for the season finale. They claimed seven first 
place finishes at the Midwest Regionals, including one broken record.

Senior Lori Terzopoulos, the only senior member on the team, broke her own school record in 
the 100-yard freestyle preliminaries at the regional meet with a time of 55.37 seconds. She went 
on to win the final in that event as well as the 50-yard freestyle in 25.73 seconds.

Two freshmen also claimed first place finishes as Susan Schumacher claimed the 200-yard 
butterfly and Susan McBee took first in the 100-yard backstroke. Three Lady Bulldog relay teams 
also took top honors. The 200-yard relay team missed the school record by two-tenths of a 
second.

Arabas said this year's squad showed strength despite their youth.

"We've had past teams equal to this year's squad in ability but they were all older, with more 
experienced girls," Arabas said.

The team should be strong contenders for the regional championship again next year with only 
one senior member leaving and a strong nucleus returning.

Swimming

Bulldogs sink to all-time low

No scholarships decrease teams chances for success

To fully appreciate what the men's swim team accomplished during the 1988-89 season, one 
can not simply look at the team's win/loss record. Instead, the individual improvement that 
resulted from hours of hard work must be taken into account. This is where dramatic changes 
took place.

Every member of the team recorded a personal best time at the Midwest Championships at the 
University of Nebraska-Omaha. Junior Rob Laux finished third overall in the 400 individual 
medley, and set a school record with a time of 4:29.61. This contributed to an overall seventh 
place team finish.

The season proved very trying for the team. Besides losing all but one meet, the team had to 
endure losses of individual members. The season ended with a smaller team and a 1-8 record in 
dual competition.

"We can improve next year by getting more freshmen," sophomore Jeff Ridinger said. "The lack 
of numbers is the reason for our losses."

The limited number of swimmers could be traced to an absence of available scholarships. No 
scholarships meant fewer swimmers. Because of the decreased number of swimmers, the team 
found it difficult to win the number of events necessary for success.

"I think if you measure success from a win/loss standpoint, we weren't very successful," Head 
Coach Chuck Arabas said, "But if you compare each person with themself at the beginning of the 
season, we were very successful."

The Bulldogs managed to post their lone win of the season Jan. 7 at Principia College (Ill.) by a 
score of 123-108. This came not long after the team had returned from a training session held in 
Florida during the holiday break.

The team looked forward to the next season, because most of the team would be returning and 
could benefit from the experience they gained this year. Arabas said prospects for 1990 were 
encouraging.

"We will definitely be better next year," Arabas said. "We have a lot of good workers on the 
team, they're really good kids."

Wrestlers take it on the chin

Bulldog program rebuilds following three year absence

The 1988-89 wrestling team focused on rebuilding their squad after a three-year absence. The 
University dropped wrestling as an intercollegiate sport in 1985.

"Upon the re-evaluation of our sports program, in regard to the sports in our immediate area, 
the popularity indicated a large enough interest in wrestling," acting Athletic Director Sam 
Lesseig said. "In keeping with the mission of our school we thought it would be wise to reinstate 
wrestling."

The team consisted of lOO percent walk-ons who had little or no collegiate experience.

"I was very pleased with the dedication, effort and performance of the men," Head Coach Mike 
Knight said. "The season as a whole was more of a preparation period. The seven members that 
remained with the team will be my nucleus to build on next year since all of them are coming 
back."

Junior John Stever ended with a 10-16 record, and agreed with the challenge of revamping the 
program. "(The season) was a learning experience," Stever said. "But we need more money to 
get good high school wrestlers to come into the program. You are taking chances by coming 
here rather than the other established wrestling schools in the Mid-West."

During the season the team had two men place in the regional rankings. Junior Jason Lind and 
sophomore Eric Ashby. Lind ranked third and Ashby ranked fourth in their respective classes 
following sixth place finishes by both at the Southwest Missouri State Invitational.

The team ended the season with a 3-13 record. Immediately after the season ended Coach 
Knight began making plans for next year's team.

"I would like to see Northeast develop into the top 10 nationally," Knight said. "I think that is 
very possible."

Shooting right on target

Student conquers hurdle, obtains national rank

If you need some pointers on bowhunting, senior Carroll Walker is a good person to ask. Not 
only does Walker enjoy hunting with a bow, he is a nationally ranked archer.

Walker's accomplishments included repeated state and national championships. And if that was 
not enough, Walker had his own style-he used his teeth to pull back the string of the bow while 
shooting.

Walker had been shooting a couple years before losing his right arm. Afterward, a friend who 
shot with only one arm encouraged him to keep shooting.

"In the summer sometimes I'll get up early in the morning, just after daylight, when the wind's 
not blowing, and practice," Walker said.

By competing in up to 12 tournaments yearly, many people asked for advice on how to get 
started. He wrote articles for a national trade magazine that helped others get started.

"The feeling that comes with accomplishment and being able to help other people is what I like 
best," Walker said.

Archery is not a highly publicized sport, Walker said, because it is not really a spectator sport. In 
outdoor competition archers shoot on marked trails at distances of 20 feet to 80 yards. The 
indoor competitions use targets at 20 yards.

Besides particpating in archery, Walker is a business education major and a farmer in Green City. 
He would like to fit archery into his career.

"I'd like to get into teaching and coaching," Walker said. "It would be nice to teach archery too."

Carrie Elliott

After successful shooting, Walker gathers his arrows. Walker ranked nationally as an archer.

While the arrow is balanced on the bow, Walker pulls the string back with his teeth. Besides 
archery, Walker worked toward his degree in business education and farmed.

People

Personalities, shapes, and colors combined. Lumped together in classes, groups and residences 
individuals emerged. Developing as an individual meant enountering new experiences.

Students went on dates in groups and independent parties were the place to go on weekends. 
Others tested the waters while doing laundry for the first time and some ventured into the 
cafeterias not knowing what to expect.

People played with Slinkys to relieve stress while others played phone pranks to add humor to a 
long night. Some students expressed their individuality by joining the progressive or anti-
abortion movements.

No matter what people were doing, they conquered or cowered from new experiences because 
they were on their own Instructions not Included.

Hidden instructions baffle students

College. A time for change, new experiences independence, nothing could fully prepare a person 
for the unexpected twists and turns that lay ahead. Sometimes the smallest unexpected details 
no one told you about caused the most trouble.

Problems included everything from registering for classes to daily living and dorm life. Firsttime 
residents had to leam how to make the right type of phone calls (dial nine to get off campus), 
where to find toilet paper and had to adjust to cafeteria-style meals.

"My main problem when I came here was figuring out how to use the cereal dispensers in PFM 
(Professional Food-Service Management)," graduate student Cathy Holcomb said. "I could not 
figure out that you pulled the bar in order to make the cereal come out."

The dispensers and food service apparatus caused problems for first time diners. "The milk 
dispensers tend to keep putting out milk after you let them go," sophomore Kelly Walker said.

The experience of living away from home created problems for both parents and students. 
"Make sure your mother puts your check in the bank if you work over Thanksgiving break," 
freshman Tim Naegelin said. "My mother saved my check for me so I would have money over 
Christmas break."

The college experience left every class wondering about campus policies they never knew 
existed. Residential colleges, library cards -- the list of unknowns grew. Although the specifics 
changed from year to year, the feeling of independence existed for every class.

Four year degrees - are they gone?

Admission to the state's liberal arts and sciences university did not require attending college 
more than four years to find value in your education. Changing majors, failing courses, taking 
minimal class loads. Whatever the reason. Not all students graduated in four years.

Graduate student James Crnic did not have all of his coursework finished when he stopped 
attending school for two semesters. "I had other things to do at the time," he said.

Darrell Krueger, dean of instruction and vice president for academic affairs, said taking more 
than four years to graduate was a national trend.

"I think the reason students take more than four years to graduate is because they change their 
majors, fail courses, or they take time off," Krueger said. "Some majors take longer if students 
don't take summer courses."

Senior Rob Hill changed his major three times and planned to graduate in more than four years. 
He carried minimum class loads.

"I like to take it easy and take only 12-13 hours each semester," Hill said. "I plan to go to grad 
school and for right now, college is a good escape from the real world, especially since I get paid 
to go to school through scholarships."

College not only delayed plans, but also gave students time to make decisions. Some students 
did not want to hastily commit themselves to one area for the rest of their lives. Senior Tony 
Potts said he thought he knew what he wanted to do after college.

"All I could think about was going to med school and someday setting up my own practice," 
Potts said. "After that first year I started to have second thoughts about becoming a doctor. I 
didn't know whether it was worth it."

Potts later changed his major to fine arts, extending his college career to a seven-year degree 
plan. "You have to find what you want in life and go after it, no matter what the cost."

Like Potts, some students intended to pursue their career after college, but for others college 
became their career. 

Fifth year senior, James Robinson gets ready to mop part of the SUB. Robinson took more than 
four years to graduate because of confusion surrounding his course requirements.

Student crew takes kinks out of halls

Chairs, drawers, lights and mattresses are just a few of the items destroyed in the residence 
halls. These items were fixed by the facilities crew.

Mike Ackerman, head of the facilities crew, said the 12- member team did minor repairs needed 
because of use and abuse.

He said some special skills were needed when applying.

All workers passed verbal tests and demonstrated knowledge of various tools and how to use 
them. They also had to show their competence in making minor repairs.

Ackerman headed the crew for two-and-one-half years, and felt good about the students' work.

"They do a tremendous job," Ackerman said. "They get stuck a lot of times with little jobs that 
wouldn't get done without them."

Junior Becky Westergaard did repairs with the crew for four semesters. Westergaard said 
moving was the most difficult, but fun. She said the job had its advantages. 

"I like it a lot," Westergaard said. "I think it's better than most jobs on campus."
	
Sophomore Pat Mathews said he learned a lot in the three semesters he worked for the crew. 
He said he had a real shock once while replacing a wall outlet.
 
"I was trying to pull the outlet apart when the screwdriver got stuck to the box," Mathews said, 
"It was kind of scary, for some reason sparks flew everywhere, but I'm still alive."

Mathews said he liked his job. "I think it will help in the future with my own house."

Faculty parents give no special care

Imagine a student walking into a classroom and finding their mother preparing to give a lecture, 
or going to the Dean's office and seeing your father behind the desk.

Although this situation could be awkward, Britta Paulding, daughter of Dr. James Paulding, did 
not think of herself as different from other students. She even took one of her father's classes.

"A lot of people in the class didn't even know he was my dad," Paulding said. "I was trying to sit 
in the back and not tell anyone who I was. It wasn't any different, I hardly talked in his class."

The 75 percent tuition discount made some children of University employees more likely to 
attend NMSU. Some students found advantages and disadvantages of having a parent as a university 
employee.

"It helps teachers to learn faster who you are," James Tichenor Jr., son of Dr. James Tichenor, 
said. "Everybody gets a chuckle out of it the first time they call roll, but after that it's no big 
deal."

These students agreed their parents' occupations did not alter their family life. Junior Michael 
Smith, son of Dean Terry Smith, said, "He occasionally asks for advice on implementing new 
programs, or what I think. Pretty much when I do see him, he leaves his work at work and leaves 
his family life at home.

Students whose parents worked for the University might have received discounts and interested 
looks when professors called roll, but the situation usually meant just one more familiar face, 
and familiar name, on campus.

Quartet's crescendo gains prestige

Four students could boast about a standing invitation to all presidential receptions. They were 
not Student Senate members or President's Distinguished Scholars but rather the President's 
String Quartet. This prestigious ensemble formed seven years ago as a faculty ensemble but 
progressed into a student ensemble which was recommended by faculty.

The quartet performed background music for presidential receptions held in honor of famous 
campus visitors such as Jeane Kirkpatrick, Vincent Price and a special delegation from the 
Republic of Taiwan.

Seniors Teresa Diego and Sally Fowler, and juniors Lara Runnels and Mary Grace Giesler, 
experienced memorable moments while performing on behalf of President Charles McClain.

When playing for the Taiwan Delegation, the quartet received a pleasant surprise. Their official 
function was to play background music, but the Delegation stopped to clap after every song.

Even though only five out of thirty delegation members spoke English, they began singing the 
Christmas carols the quartet was playing.

"It was an interesting mixture of English and Taiwanese," cellist Diego said.

The quartet also performed community concerts for such groups as the Kirksville Regional Arts 
Council, where they were the only student group invited to perform.

Jonathan Chenoweth, the quartet's coach, said, "The group has found by playing different 
performances together, that playing well as an ensemble is formed slowly."

Siblings strengthen relationships

Each year students come to school leaving behind home towns, old identities, friends, parents, 
brothers and sisters. A fresh start meant new friends, new groups and new courses.

Then it happened. After establishing an identity at college, a brother or sister at home chose to 
attend the same school.

The older child wondered how to act and whether the younger brother or sister would become 
more popular.

Could you keep separate identities and avoid the high school tendency to attach labels to 
siblings?

Senior Matt Belcher found it possible to keep separate identities. His brother Jeff agreed. Matt 
let Jeff do his own thing when he started.

"No one showed me around when I came here," Matt said. "Besides, he could handle it."

Jeff agreed, because he wanted to be independent.

"I didn't want him to think I was tagging along," Jeff said. "I don't see him as much as thought I 
would before came."

On the average, the two talked about once every other week.

Not all siblings took such a laissez-faire attitude. Senior John Laurent took a different approach 
when his sister Tammy started college.

"My first instinct was to check all her classes, hang around her room and see things went all 
right for her and check her teachers," John said.

He soon realized his sister could get along on her own, and the visits became less frequent.

Tammy said, that although she felt a little stifled at first, she did not regret choosing the same 
school. They were both glad to have each other to turn to when their stepfather passed away.

"Instead of having to be up here alone, we had each other," John said. "It made it a lot easier."

Siblings . . . continued from page 171

"It's a really great suport group," Tammy said.

They talked to each other two or three times weekly. Their classes were in different buildings, so 
they rarely saw each other walking around on campus.

Senior Kris Spence also acted protective of his sister Kay when she first enrolled.

"The first time she came to a Phi Lambda Chi party I was worried about how I was supposed to 
act because I was used to drinking and here comes my sister out of high school," Kris said.

Kay noticed his big-brother attitude. "He's very protective and he doesn't like anyone I date," 
Kay said.

The two agreed there were disadvantages to having a brother or sister on campus.

"It was hard being known as just Kris' little sister instead of Kay," Kay said.

"Having to share my car and her being able to tell mom and dad anything I did was a big 
disadvantage," Kris said.

Overall, the two got along well. These brothers and sisters maintained separate identities and 
found they could coexist without cramping each other's styles.

A college atmosphere also meant sibling rivalry. Tammy said grades could be a problem, since 
John recieved high grades.

"Some kids could tell their parents school was just getting harder," Tammy said. "I don't have 
that excuse because John got such good grades."

Quad trotting considered a hazard

Hazards on campus created problems that inconvenienced students. The Quadrangle, lack of 
lighting, and construction were just some of the obstructions that made the simple task of 
walking to class an adventure.

The Quad continued to be a problem and often resembled a sticky mud pit. The original 
Teacher's College campus included a lake on the land now known as the Quad. In 1924 workers 
drained the lake to extinguish a fire in Baldwin Hall. In 1985 a drainage system was added, but 
mud and low tree branches still aggravated those who traveled the Quad.

"It's supposed to be a short cut, but it turns out to be more of a problem," freshman Chris 
Murphy said. "The Quad does have aesthetic value. It is a relief from the brick and cement parts 
of campus. However, it should have been a practical route for getting to classes."

Besides the Quad's topographical problems, the lack of lighting also caused concern. "The Quad 
is an asset to the school because of it's beauty, but they should make one lighted sidewalk 
through it," junior Velvet Meissein said.

Construction caused another risk for most of the first semester. Walking across campus became 
a sort of "Mission Impossible" as wooden planks bridged the ditches in front of Missouri and 
Brewer halls.

"It was always an adventure crossing the ditches because you didn't know if the board would 
break or if you would slip off into the moat," sophomore Michael Hachmeister said.

Campus modernization caused inconvenience but students agreed it was better than having old, 
worn out places.

Missouri Hall students Eric Zareh, fr., and Mike Barnes, fr., walk the plank on their way across 
campus. Reconstruction kept students on their toes all year.

Students catch "bugs" during school

Sick trays delivered bedside and sympathetic parents disappeared when students came to 
college but that did not mean students no longer got sick.

Sophomore Chad Kerr turned to the Student Health Clinic to avoid a lingering illness. "The 
Health Clinic is helpful if you feel yourself getting sick and you go right away," Kerr said. "That 
way you could prevent getting something worse."

Dr. John Morgan, Director of Student Health, said the number of patients increased during the 
colder months of the year. Morgan also said a college student's environment and lifestyle 
contibuted to an increase in the number of students that got sick.

"College students live in an environment where they are more exposed, there are a lot of people 
in a small amount of space, they are more of a risk," Morgan said. "Some college students don't 
get the optimum amount of sleep or have an optimum diet, which can affect one's resistance."

Fresman Mary Ann Ritchie went to the clinic but said she had trouble making up the work she 
missed when out of school. "Finally I came down with mono and they, the Health Clinic, sent me 
home before Finals," Ritchie said. "Now I'm paying the price by making up finals, with the added 
load of a new semester."

When students got sick at school the treatment did not differ much from the treatment for 
being sick of school. Complain to your roommate, take some aspirin or go to a doctor - you had 
to find the treatment alone, without sympathetic parents to listen to your sniffling.

G.D.I. parties break Greek tradition

To be a GDI used to mean being excluded from the kind of multikeg blowouts with hundreds of 
people usually associated with fraternities. In recent years, though, places with names like "The 
Cave," "The Grey House," and "The Academy" provided a place to party without being Greek.

"Usually, we have anywhere between 250 to 400 people in our house, our garage, and our back 
yard," senior Kevin Knickerbocker, a tenant of the Grey House, said. "We go through anywhere 
between eight and 13 kegs in a night."

Knickerbocker said people are what make a party, but freshman Tom Todd, a tenant of the 
Academy, said music played an important part in drawing a crowd. His parties featured live 
music from his own band and from others. In addition to providing the bands with exposure, the 
guests enjoyed the music.

"They like the sound of live bands and keep coming back for it," Todd said.

He said that the type of drinks offered at The Academy added another attraction to the parties. 
"The usual party enhancer -- it's a yellowish liquid substance that people consume in sometimes 
great amounts," Todd said.

None of the houses "sold" beer. Knickerbocker said the Grey House "sells cups, the beer is 
complimentary."

Originally, the idea behind some independent parties was to allow a social place for the non-
Greek student body. But after word spread about the establishments, they opened the doors for 
everyone. 

Three dollars for a plastic cup of beer is a common sight for students. G.D.I. parties attracted a 
mixture of people.

Abortion issue surfaces on campus

The 16th anniversary of the Roe vs. Wade decision on January 22,1989 sent a wave of Pro-life 
and Pro-choice demonstrations across the nation. The members of the Christians at McLaughlin 
Chapel staged a peaceful anti-abortion protest on the quadrangle January
23.

"We're trying to present God's view on the subject of abortion," co-pastor Richard Ochs said. 
"We've been up here a couple years in a row now passing out literature and telling students 
what the Scriptures say about it."

Junior Debbie Lein, a member of the Chapel, said students just do not realize what they are 
doing when they have an abortion and that demonstrations are a good way to inform them.

Pro-choicer Sarah Hartmann, jr., thought the protesters were being too forward.

"I really haven't seen them, but I heard they're being really pushy about the issue," Hartmann 
said. "If they would do it in a civilized way, that would be OK. I just don't think they should push 
their views and their literature off on anyone."

Ochs disagreed with pro-choicers who said a woman should have the right to choose what to do 
with her body. "Choice is a nice word, but you've got to think about what you are choosing," 
Ochs said. "When you talk about killing the life of an unborn child, what choice is that?"

Amid demonstrations in Kirksville and the nation, President George Bush was working to have 
the Supreme Court decision overturned.

Group dating: The alternative avenue 

Dating has always been part of college social life. Going out in groups offered an alternative to 
traditional single dating.

"Group dating is more relaxed, a lot of fun and relieves stress for first time daters," junior Jeff 
Williams said.

Popular activities for group dating included bar-hopping for the over-21 group to socializing at 
the lake. "Getting couples together as a group and renting a pontoon at the lake can be really 
fun, because you can fish, swim, barbeque and socialize," senior Sherri Agee said.

"I enjoy getting a group together for happy hour and living it up at either Bogie's or Too Tail's," 
senior Joy Adams said.

Some students believed the best way to go to a movie was in a group. Others resorted to home 
videos.

"I'd much rather rent movies and bring them home with a group of people," junior Susan Priebe 
said. "It seems more relaxed and personal."

Other group pastimes included going out to eat, snow skiing, and going to parties, nonetheless, 
the boy-girl dating scene had not been phased out. Some students said dating one-on-one gave 
them the best chance to get to know the other person.

"You get to know the girl much better because it kind of forces the two of you together," 
sophomore Will Fitzsimmons said.

The lack of things to do in Kirksville caused dating anxieties but led to creativity.

"With nothing else to do but the usual eating out and going to a movie, you have to be creative," 
senior Todd Hart said. "Sometimes the best dates can come from the craziest ideas."

Group dating offers an alternative to the traditional date. Lori Bamett, jr., Steve White, so., and 
Laurie Auer, fr., enjoy a night on the town, together.

Famous names, but unfamiliar faces

A rose is a rose, but is Sandy Duncan really Sandy Duncan?

Some students had the same name as stars so you might have had Paul Schafer or Steve Martin 
in a class.

Junior Tom Crews said he felt uncomfortable the first day of classes when instructors called role 
because many students turned their heads when they heard his name.

"When they call out your name everybody laughs," he said. "It's kind of embarrassing; 
everybody turns around and looks at you."

Freshman Jennifer Horton, who shared her name with a soap opera character, said many people 
meeting her for the first time commented on her name.

"When I introduced myself to people they'd say, 'Oh, she's on Days of Our Lives.'"

Others agreed first meetings were a difficult time.

Senior Sandy Duncan was teased her about Wheat Thins because of the famous Duncan in the 
commercials, and freshman Melissa Gilbert had to field questions such as "Weren't you on Little 
Mouse on the Prairie?" and "How's Rob Lowe?"

Gilbert said it did not bother her to have the same name as a star, she said she found 
advantages because people would remember her name.

These stars were not famous when the students were named, but the students thought it was 
interesting their names had become widely known. However, they did say, they would not want 
their children to have the same names as famous people.

"It's good to have your own identity," Gilbert said.

Karen Klingemann

A famous name brought curious questions for Melissa Gilbert, fr. She shared her name with a 
celebrity.

Twain marks campus with activities

Their softball team placed first in intramural sports competition, one resident won the campus 
Monopoly tournament and they were involved in the United Way fund drive.

The people with these claims to fame lived in Dobson Hall's Twain House.

Twain House participated in activities in Dobson Hall and around campus. Two of the campus 
events Twain House participated in were the scavenger hunt during Homecoming, and the KNEU 
lip sync contest. Twain House's activities were unpredictable.

"There are many smaller activities going on in Twain House all of the time," said Junior Dave 
Stefacek, a third year resident and former Twain House president.

Activities Twain House sponsored included skating parties, dart tournaments, and board game 
tournaments. Weekly events included playing hall sports, watching Days of Our Lives every day, 
and watching Alf every Monday night.

"We're lucky, we have the lounge as a social gathering place," said Stefacek. "Everyone goes out 
there and has fun joking around and talking. We're just a great bunch of friends. Everyone 
knows everyone else and everyone gets involved."

"Twain House is the place to be," said sophomore Brian Hammond. "This is where it's at."

To sum up their feelings about Twain House several residents came up with a slogan they 
thought covered it all. "Twain House forever. Once you experience it you'll never forget it."

OSCAR joins fight to recycle waste

Some people argued that all Americans wanted was more: more of this product, more of that 
product without the slightest concern for anything else.

About 10-15 students wanted more and found it in September when they founded OSCAR -The 
Organization of Students Concerned About Resources.

"My concern for the world became articulated when I first came to college," senior Michael 
Stark said. "After I entered college and spent some time in the forests and fields, I wished 
people would do more with less."

Trash along highways and streets displayed the need for recycling. "Right now recycling (of 
metal cans, glass, and paper) is our main concern," senior Louis Brescia said. "After our projects 
become more regular, we will have more time to devote toward other endeavors."

OSCAR received money from projects, but their primary concern was not the money. "The 
money we receive is sent to either statewide or national environmental organizations," Brescia 
said. "As a nation, we are rapidly filling our landfills with our natural resources. Recycling is 
important because it saves landfill space, resources, and the energy needed to process those 
resources," Brescia said.

He warned of the potential problems Americans faced.

"Seventy-five percent of what Americans throw away is recyclable. If we continue with our 'use 
once, then throw away' attitude, we may soon find ourselves knee-deep in trash and depleted 
of useful raw materials."

College anxieties stress out students

Stress. Students used the word frequently but did the stress factor here really exceed anxieties 
at other universities?

"I've never heard the phrase 'stressed out' used so much as it is here," Centennial Hall Director 
Joe DiChristina said.

In a nationwide survey conducted by the University of Califomia-Los Angeles, 10.5 percent of 
more than 300,00000 freshmen reported feeling depressed frequently. According to USA Today, 
this number showed an increase from 8.7 percent in 1987.

"You get people who get straight As all through high school, they come here, get a B and it kills 
them," DiChristina said.

Kim Allen, Centennial Hall Resident Adviser, said people were not as capable of dealing with 
pressure because academics were being stressed more and competition increased.

DiChristina said people often attempt suicide as a way of asking for help.

"It's not a violent thing; it's someone reaching out," he said. "If they don't feel involved with 
anything, they think 'What's the sense of living?"'

DiChristina and Allen both saw a need for qualified counselors on campus. Allen said 
administrators needed to realize students have emotional and spiritual needs.

"With 70 women there's a few that I miss," she said. "With the University working with me, they 
could catch those I miss."

Some stress could not be avoided. But students needed to find someone to listen to when they 
were feeling 'stressed out.

Karen Klingemann

Stress takes its toll as students try to make the grade. Students cited changing degree 
requirements as a cause of increased tension and anxiety.

Freshmen of today create new trend

Every fall the incoming freshman class suddenly invades campus. The students look the same; 
excited, hopeful and fearful of the unknown. But after a closer look at the new arrivals of the 
past five years, the similarities stop there.

In 1984 freshmen moved their belongings into the residence halls-a short distance from home, 
after selecting northeast for low tuition rates. The students would make their first appearance in 
a classroom in only two days.

"I believe we were academically prepared, but not aware of all the hard work which would be 
expected of us," senior John Smallwood, a 1984 freshman said.

In 1988 the 'average' freshman moved into the residence hall after making a long trip to 
Kirksville, and selected northeast for its good academic reputation. Their debut in a classroom 
occurred the next day, but they would not attend a "real" classroom for one week because of 
the weeklong freshman leadership conference.

"I was so excited to be able to attend Northeast," freshman Ann Blank said. "Due to the recent 
recognition the University has received it really feels like a privilege to be a part of my freshman 
class."

College freshmen tended to experence some of the same emotions when arriving at college, but 
times have changed. The growing differences between underclassmen and those approaching 
their graduation day were easily identified. Differences appeared in everything from 
demographics to test scores.

"Choosing a college or university to attend is not an easy decision," freshman Tracie Kennedy; 
from Acworth, Georgia said. "I liked both the size of the school and the town it was located in. 
And when I heard about Northeast's academic reputation, I felt it was just right for me."

"The freshmen of 1984 were much more open minded," Marcia Dixon, instructor of 
communications, said. "They had many more new ideas and were receptive to different kinds of 
teaching. The current freshman class is much more conservative, serious and confident of their 
own ability."

Students under the old program noticed the contrast with freshmen admitted under the new 
program.

"The new students seem much more scholarly and worried about keeping their image up," 
Smallwood said. "My classmates did not devote as much time and effort as they seem to be."

Freshmen did not always appreciate their stereotype.

"I don't feel it is fair to label us (freshman) all 'bookworms'," freshman Steve Dudenhoeffer said. 
"Just like with any other group, some of us are more intense on studying, while some hardly do 
it at all."

Upperclassmen thought the academic pressure freshmen put on themselves would not be 
beneficial in the long run.

"When I was a freshman in 1984, my class was concerned about academics," senior Michael 
Caguin said. "However, we were looking for a balance between work and play. The freshmen 
today seemed to be geared more toward academics rather than a balanced student life. It 
almost appears that they are socially inactive."

Northeast's social reputation used to be a reason some students selected the school. But now 
students took college selection more seriously. Freshmen of 1988 considered academic 
reputation an important factor and did not consider distance from home a major drawback.

The University changed its lifeblood and the student body followed close behind. As the 
University grew up its students did too -- one similiarity we all had in common.

Campus can't shed these graduates

When graduates finally had their diploma in hand, the first thing many thought about was 
leaving Kirksville. However, some graduates stayed and worked in administrative or teaching 
positions.

David Clithero, staff assistant in alumni/development, said he had a head start on his job when 
he chose to work at the University.

"I feel I had an advantage as an employee because I knew several people when I first started my 
job." Clithero said. "I think that is one of the scary aspects of starting a new job. You have to 
reacquaint yourself with a new system."

Graduates who became employees agreed they had a better understanding of the University 
and could identify with students because of their former student status. Regina Myers, assistant 
director of admissions, received a B.S.E, in 1973 and her Masters' in 1983. Meyers began working 
for NMSU in 1979 as an admissions counselor.

"I know what northeast has to offer," Myers said. "I loved NMSU as an undergraduate. I know 
what people can gain from (the school). It is much easier to be in a marketing postition when 
you have attended a university,"

Denise Rendina, student union building programming coordinator, graduated from NMSU in 
1988. "I'm real comfortable," Rendina said. "I think that's one of the reasons I adjusted real 
quick to my job."

Clithero remembered his times as an active student and considered this experience valuable 
preparation for his career. "It is a totally different perspective sitting on one side of the desk 
versus this side," Clithero said. "I can certainly appreciate student concerns."

Fantasy becomes chartered reality

A group of students acted out their fantasies on campus and had their own wish granted when 
they received an official charter.

The Fantasy Club received the first charter granted through a new system. Charters were now 
granted by the Student Activities office instead of Student Senate.

The Club focused on role playing games such as Dungeons and Dragons, strategic games like Risk 
and Chess, and science fiction. Senior Ed Huels started the club two years ago when he came to 
Northeast so he would have something to do on weekends without spending money.

"I was interested in gaming but I didn't know anyone around here to game with," Huels said. "It 
promotes group interaction and cooperation, not to mention open-minded thinking."

Members signed waivers saying the club did not take responsibility for their actions. The waiver 
developed because of the bad reputation Dungeons and Dragons had in the religious 
community.

"We just don't want someone's parents suing us because their child was involved with gaming," 
Huels said. "Most of the people who claim Dungeons and Dragons is dangerous have never 
played."

Sophomore Michelle Correll added, "There's absolutely nothing the club does together that 
could harm someone."

Correll said she enjoyed the club because of the members' attitudes.

"The personalities in the group are so creative," Correll said. "Ho matter how weird a subject 
you bring up, they don't look at you weird, they'll sit around and talk about it."

A deliverance, catering to campus

Through sleet or snow or dead of night, delivery people made their way through Kirksville. 
Students' growling stomachs cried for fulfillment and students like senior Vincent Lewis came to 
the rescue. Lewis worked as a delivery person for Domino's Pizza to help pay his way through 
college and to have extra spending money.

"It has been a lot of fun for me," Lewis said. "I would not say it is the best job for a student 
because the job can get hectic and the hours are not set. But it's a great way to meet people and 
I got to learn Kirksville in a different way from most of the students."

Senior William Smith also said he loved meeting new people when he made deliveries for 
Pagliais. "One out of every 10 deliveries is to someone I know -- and that's why I enjoy it."

Hazardous road conditions sometimes caused a late delivery or an upset customer. But most 
students were content when the delivery reached their doorstep.

Junior Karen Hourihan remembered one specific Domino's delivery when her car was stolen. "I 
went in to give the guys their pizza, but I left my car running because I could see them waiting in 
the doorway," Hourihan said. "When I went back outside, my car was gone! I couldn't believe 
someone would steal my car. "

Stolen cars, late hours, and bad weather conditions were everyday occurrences as some 
students 'drove for dollars' to answer other students' 'dial-a-pizza' requests.

Laundry - Coming clean with domestic chore

Students could not escape the dirty truth. College meant learning to do laundry.

Some knew how, but for others college meant the first time away from mom's free washing 
service. Because favorite clothes were always the first in the basket, students found themselves 
faced with piles of dirty clothes. Laundry could not be avoided.

Some chose to haul laundry home. Others, through desperation, tackled the mound alone. 
Some students made the job worse by waiting until the laundry mounted up before they tackled 
it.

While it sounded easy, laundry had rules of its own. Students had to pay attention to care tags 
and separate colors.

Freshman Todd Armbrust owned 45 pairs of underwear so laundry could wait for a trip home. "I 
just don't like it," Armbrust said. "The only laundry I do is my soccer gear."

Senior Dennis Schmitt had a similar idea. "Maybe once a month I do laundry," he said. "I have 
quite a bit of underwear and socks, but if I run out, I buy more."

Some students thought laundry was a waste of time and money. Freshman Dana Mullikin would 
rather spend money on entertainment. "I can go out and do something like eat, see a movie or 
buy beer at a party, instead of paying for laundry," Mullikin said. "It should be free, because it is 
just a hassle and a waste of money."

Whether students enjoyed it or not, laundry was something everyone had to do one way or 
another. The dirty truth could not be avoided. 

Letters home occupy Kathy Lamb, fr., while waiting for a washer. Freshmen were forced to do 
their own laundry.

Color binds black minority students

Of the approximately 6,000 students here, a scant three percent of them were black. The 
percentage had increased from last year's number of 165.

Freshman Rhonda Evans felt like leaving when she came to school and saw the lack of black 
students.

"I think they get up here and there's no one here so they transfer," Evans said. "Up here, if you 
see another black person you say 'hi' to them. I thought that was strange, but I figured out there 
were only 200 of us, so you kind of have to bind together."

Senior Ricky Ruff believed the small black community discouraged black students from 
attending.

"Black students see the small black community here as isolated and off to themselves," Ruff 
said. "It also gives them the impression that the black students here don't get involved with the 
rest of the college."

"There's really nothing for us to do up here," Evans said. "The parties are dead, because no one 
comes out."

Sophomore Cammie Austin disagred. "There is as much here as any other college in Missouri. 
There are ample opportunities for a social life. Interaction between blacks and whites would 
increase social opportunities."

Minority Counselor Dwyane Smith said, "Northeast is really no exception from any other school 
in the state. I feel the environment of the school should be changed to help the blacks."

Ruff said faculty advisers assigned to black students were part of the problem. "(The) faculty 
assigned are strictly for black students only. Black activities and things important to blacks are 
overlooked at Northeast."

Career and college is just the ticket

Going to school and working full time could be hectic, to say the least. For junior Lester Elder, 
who carried nine hours and worked as a Kirksville policeman, time management could be 
especially challenging.

Lester started working at the Kirksville Police Department in May 1988. Criminal justice seemed 
to run in his family. Lester's father, Harold, worked as a patrolman for the Missouri State 
Highway Patrol in Macon.

He thought a degree would help him in the future. "If you have two equally qualified people and 
one has a degree while the other one does not, you would choose the one with the degree," 
Lester said.

Reactions from teachers and students were generally positive. His criminal justice teachers often 
asked him to contribute by sharing his own experiences.

"I really don't feel any different," he said. "But I'm sure they (students) kind of watch what they 
say around me."

Lester's typical day began at 5:30 each morning. He worked the day shift from 7 a.m. until 3 p.m. 
After work he rushed home in time to change clothes and drive to his 3:30 class. The police 
department had a policy to allow student officers to attend classes while on duty. Officers had 
to be in uniform and take a walkie-talkie with them to each class. If a problem arose, the officer 
simply left the class. 

Although working and college went together for most students, not everyone received 
instructions on shooting a gun, filling out arrest warrants or showing the public a golden badge.

Pranks make mess, relieve stress

In the middle of a great dream, the phone rang. The student crawled out of bed, stumbled to 
the phone, and in a sleepy voice, said, "Hello?" He was suddenly alert when -- "Phone tag! 
You're it!"

Aggravating, right?

Sophomore Laura Black said pranks like this were "stress relieving." Black, a resident adviser, 
had a few pranks under her belt. One year she wrapped her resident adviser's bed with tape and 
filled her shower head with Kool-Aid as a gag meant for her own roommate. She saw the 
evidence leaking before turning the water on and foiled Laura's plans.

Junior Ann Watson and her roommates decided to T.P. junior Dave Rogers' room while he was 
out. They went back to their room, locked the doors and left for a movie. With help from an RA, 
Rogers got into their room. He left behind a mess to go down in prank history.

The door knobs were greased, knobs on dressers and desks were unscrewed and screwed in 
backward, and pictures turned around. A poster of hockey player Brian Sutter had a peanut 
butter mustache and they used a phone cord to hang a stuffed animal. The job ended after 
marshmallows were placed under mattresses and beds were short sheeted.

"We were just stunned," Watson said. "We thought we were so smart and so sneaky."

Pranks provided a creative way for students to relieve stress. Gags ran the full range from mild, 
light-hearted fun to revengeful ploys. Beware! The next time the phone rings, it might be a 
phone tag player.

Odd classes come out of the closet

Light, Makeup, Air Conditioning Systems, Forecasting, Tailoring, Water Polo. These topics are 
only a few unheard-of classes students consider "blow-off" or "joke" classes.

Increased course requirements and lack of knowledge about other major areas led students to 
doubt the validity of obscure classes.

Game Management and Harvest students did not design strategies for playing sports, but senior 
Kelly Elliott found the class worth his time. "I liked the casual atmosphere and the minimal 
amount of time I had to put into the class," Elliott said.

One science class involved speleology. Students explored caves for three weekends during the 
semester. Senior Dan Storck said he enjoyed non-textbook classes, but he had doubts while 
exploring a non-commercial cave. "The only time I worried was after the teacher put us in a still 
wild cave," Storck said, "I was afraid my flashlight wouldn't work."

Classes with unusual titles were usually upper level courses, and while unfamiliar, they sounded 
logical to students of those majors. While an English major thought of Statics as the stuff in your 
clothes, a science major studied it.

Freshman Wendie Robinson took Introduction to Biofeedback. She found the study of mind-
body problems helpful to her justice systems major. "I had no idea what it was until I looked it 
up," Robinson said. "I had never heard of it before. "

Robin Lukefahr, Academic Planning Services Counselor, thought most students understood the 
unusual courses if they were part of their major. "Students have not been exposed to the 
subjects in high school," Lukefahr said.

Taking a look from behind the scenes

Before the curtain went up on a theater production, many hours of work were invested by 
people who never received the applause.

One crew member thought the backstage work should not be noticed.

"People want to be entertained and don't want to be pestered with thinking about the technical 
aspects," junior Dan Krumm said. "That's our job, if people are thinking about what's going on 
technically then we haven't done our job right because it's distracting from the show."

Junior Elise Alft said she thought the audience should notice the scenery. "It's our job to create 
the scene whether it's back in the '30s or present day. As soon as people see it they sould feel 
like they're in that setting."

Junior Duane Dimmitt chose the less glamorous backstage for practical reasons. "I'd like to be an 
actor but there's always that chance I won't get a job (acting)."

"It's just a great job!" said sophomore Chris Wooten who chose technical work for enjoyment.

Krumm agreed. "I love my job. Theatre's my life, and this is probably the best experience I could 
ever have."

The technical director or the director of the show appointed students to backstage positions. 
Students tried almost all positions backstage and also acted, because of the small number of 
people involved in technical theater.

The students who worked backstage may not have been in the spotlight but the lack of applause 
did not matter because all of the stage was a world of its own.

Senior artists show off knowledge

Hard at work, Laurie Robinson, so., draws a project for Design and Drawing class. Students used 
projects from earlier classes for their senior art show.

You notice a group of tall clay rods in front of the Administration/Humanities Building. A strange 
sculpture on the second floor of Baldwin Hall dares you to find its meaning.

Each display of skill formed a part of a senior show, a one-credit requirement for all art majors. 
In the senior show, the student displayed enough work to show the skill and knowledge 
acquired while earning an undergraduate degree. In addition, the students also wrote a paper 
explaining the ideas behind the work.

The entire art faculty then graded the student on the work and the ability to present the work in 
the paper.

Senior Chris Brauss, an advertising-design major, stressed the importance of a show. "In the real 
world, you have to be able to present
yourself in a clear, concise manner," Brauss said. "The Senior Show helps prepare you for that 
type of situation."

Senior Scoot Meridith, a studio major, also emphasized the Senior Show.

"Art is so subjective," Meredith said. "You can't give it a written test. It's a physical test. The 
Show is the way you see all the knowledge you've accumulated over four years."

Following the shows, (which lasted from three to five days), many seniors chose to hold 
reception for family, friends and faculty.

So the next time you pass a baffling work of art on the second floor of Baldwin Hall, look for the 
senior paper which describes the work. Maybe you will understand the idea behind the pots 
resting on beaver-chewed sticks

Vegetarianism - you can't beet it!

Cheese Eater's Delight, the Garden Sub, Cheese Lover's pizza -- not the typical Midwestern meat 
and potatoes, but instead, a list of appetizing options if you were a vegetarian.

Ken Soden, Head of Centennial Hall Professional Food-Service Management, said residents 
made requests to PFM directors for changes in the menu. The students in the halls asked for 
nonmeat meal selections. Special entrees were not served every meal, but salad bars were 
available.

Freshman Meg Weber changed her diet in 1987 because of health reasons and moral concerns. 
After becoming a vegetarian she developed an awareness of what she ate.

"I can't remember ever liking meat," Weber said. "After reading articles about red meat and 
how bad it is for your heart, I decided it was better to stay away from it. You get to a point 
where it smells bad and it looks bad."

Reasons for the change in diet ranged from a concern for animals, the benefits of a lower 
cholesterol level and a dislike of meat.

"People are getting more health conscious," Soden said.

Some local restaurants did not specialize in vegetarian meals, but offered non-meat options.

A downfall involved the likelihood of developing a vitamin deficiency. By eating the right 
combinations of foods, a vegetarian could get an adequate amount of protein, but iron and 
vitamin B deficiencies were common. Many vegetarians took vitamin supplements daily.

On the plus side, some vegetarians noticed a weight loss and energy boost. Weber said she 
exercised more because of the extra energy.

Weber said she felt lighter after her dietary change. After consulting a physician she discovered 
meat tended to weigh down the digestive system.

The extent of lifestyle change for a vegetarian depended on the changes in diet. 
Becki Dunger

"No meat" forms the basis for vegetarian diets. Students adjusted their lifestyles to cope with a 
diet change.

Instruction beyond the classroom

Peer counselor and graduate student Ruth Miller helps Doug Mauser, so. Tutors became a big 
part of the curriculum.

The course syllabus said "Tutor," and gave the days and times when they were available. Some 
students never thought twice about it but others took advantage of available tutors.

Sophomore Wes Clifton tutored Foundations of Math, and said tutoring gave him a chance to 
see things from a different point of view.

Junior Kelly Yurs tutored Elementary Spanish at the Language Lab. Students enrolled in foreign 
language courses were required to attend tutor sessions at the lab for at least one hour per 
week.

Yurs said the thing that bothered her the most about tutoring was when students did not try. 
She said she did not mind having a good time if people learned.

"I don't take a lot seriously," Yurs said. "I just want people to try."

Sophomore Rhonda Easley tutored students in the Writing Center. She helped with writing 
problems and with everything from choosing topic ideas to improving grammar.

"It's a good way to make use of one of your skills, to make someone else's life a little easier," 
Easley said.

Yurs said she could not always answer every question but did not feel bad because of it.

"I'm not a teacher," Yurs said. "I don't know everything there is to know about the Spanish 
language."

Easley also found herself stumped by some questions but said the experience was beneficial.

"Occasionally, I get challenged with something I don't know how to handle," Easley said. 
"Sometimes I feel that I'm learning as much as my tutees. With each session, I feel I have a 
better grasp of what I'm doing."

Movement shakes campus images

Maybe you caught a glimpse of an oddly-dressed person with an asymmetrical haircut. Maybe 
you wondered what the "progressive movement" meant or what it stood for.

The movement had its own music and wardrobe. Junior Eric Helming, a self-proclaimed 
progressive, said the crowd just tried to be different from the norm.

"It's a statement to society that they don't want to conform with the standards, morals and 
ideals that everyone else holds so high," Helming said.

Freshman A. J. Brower said, "It's an alternate style, one that's not so bland, not so plain as the 
style of everybody else."

Some students still did not know what to make of the haircuts and dark clothes, but senior Mike 
Clancy said the alternate look became the norm.

"It's nothing that captures anyone's attention much anymore," Clancy said. 

"Before, I'd give a double-take, but now I kind of ignore it. If they want to dress like that, it 
doesn't bother me."

Progressive people were also proud of their lifestyles.

"I dress and look like this because I want to. I'm not trying to express a trend," Brower said. "It's 
just a way of life. It's a style. It's something you do, day by day."

So when you saw the dyed hair, the dark clothes and haircuts, you saw what might have been 
the decade's answer to the peace movement of the '60s or the disco scene of the '70s. Maybe 
we didn't have to walk six miles uphill in knee-deep snow to get to school, but the progressive 
movement could be something to tell your grandchildren about. Rusty Creed

College is child's play for students

If toys were still known as playthings for children, then a lot of children could be found on 
campus. Children did not hold a monopoly on toy ownership. Students rediscovered, or perhaps 
had always known, the fun toys could bring.

A quick inspection of campus revealed toys from traditional stuffed animals to the latest video 
games. One apartment alone was equipped with a dart board set, a basketball hoop and a race 
course for a radio controlled car. But the variety of toys did not stop there.

"I have a Godzilla doll and one of Hulk Hogan," junior Jay Thorpe said. "Also, we have Nintendo, 
and a bunch of board games. It's like a big day care center here."

Some students still played with many of the old favorites such as Le-
gos, Slinkys, rubber balls, Etch-a-Sketch and water guns.

"The toys give you something to do," sophomore Jennifer Blais said. "They keep your hands busy 
when you are bored."

In addition to the simple fact that toys could be fun, students believed there were other reasons 
to have toys around. Some students played with toys to help them relax.

"They provide a great way to relieve stress," Thorpe said. "Instead of going out and getting 
drunk, it is easier to play with toys."

Thorpe's father thought he was too old to be playing with toys, but Thorpe told him childhood 
was the best part of his life, and he should not be so anxious to throw it away. Craig Whitworth

In search of the perfect piece, Michelle Farrister, fr., tries to complete a puzzle. Toys served as 
popular diversions from the homework blues.

Army men help Raegan Whitaker, so., and Tracie Kennedy, fr., relieve stress. Variations of toys 
could be found in almost every room.

A clean sweep at McClain's house

Vivian Franje

It might seem impressive to have held a part-time job working for the University president, but 
the job held by sophomore Heidi Buser was not the glamorous job one might expect.

"I go in almost every day to feed his dog, Woo," Buser said. "I sweep, mop, clean the bathroom, 
make his bed and do about anything else a housekeeper does."

Buser found out about the job when she tutored President McClain's previous housekeeper, 
Nicole Snider. After Snider graduated, Buser took over her duties.

President McClain never gave Buser a specific list of duties. She could
choose her own working hours as long as she finished before the president returned from the 
University.

Although McClain and Buser were rarely at the house together, Buser said they occasionally 
exchanged small talk.

"We talked about a new teacher I had, but that's the closest it came to talking about the 
University," Buser said.

Buser enjoyed working the 20 hours each week, but not because of pay or prestige.

"It's probably the best job for me while I'm going to school," Buser said. "He's great to work for."

Steve Martin

The president's house is kept in order by Heidi Buser, so., in an unusual part-time job. Buser 
took the job after the previous housekeeper graduated.

Serving as hostess, Buser greets Annette Jacob and Dr. Nicholas Jordan as she takes coats at the 
Presidents Christmas reception. Her job included typical housekeeping duties and feeding Dr. 
McClain's dog, Woo.

Convenient move causes confusion

Dobson Hall Director, Doug teDuits works in the Residence Life office. The directors made 
information more accessible after the office moved.

Some said Residence Life moved up in the world, one floor up that is. But others were 
concerned the move meant more for Residence Life than smaller office space.

The Residence Life offices, originally located in Administration/Humanities 101, moved to A/H 
204 after Vonnie Nichols, former director of Student Activities, become Assistant Dean of 
Colleges.

Ron Gaber, former director of residence life, resigned last spring and Lori Haxton, assistant 
director, resigned last fall. The two were not replaced until Nichols was assigned the new 
position.

"With Dean Smith as dean of colleges and Vonnie as the new assistant dean, the move was 
pretty much for convenience," Dorene Schmitz, Blanton-Nason Hall director, said.

"It's like a residential living complex," Nichols said. "It's easier physically to have the files, phone 
calls and everything coming to the same place."

The Alumni Office moved to the former Residence Life offices which left the 
Administration/Humanities Building in a state of chachaos during the move.

"It was hard to move everything around and still keep some sense of organization," Barb Clark, 
secretary to the assistant dean of colleges, said. "We called on the University movers a lot."

Doug teDuits, Dobson Hall Director, said the move was a positive change to have the offices 
more centralized despite the smaller office space.

But not everyone felt the move was positive or necessary.

"We have a lot of people asking questions about the move and no one has any real concrete 
answers about why it was done other than to have the director of the residential colleges and 
the residence halls in one area," Amy Adams, vice president of Residence House Association, 
said. "It's really confusing."

"With all the switching around of personnel and offices, it's like being on a big merry-go-round," 
Adams said. "We're never quite sure who to go to with our residence hall problems."

Chasing women and going to fraternity parties were typical activities for typical college 
students. But not all students were typical. Some chose to take a walk down the aisle instead.

Matrimony became a natural course for some couples. "We'd been together as a couple so long, 
it just seemed natural," junior Tracy Rein said. Tracy and her husband, Matthew, wed one year 
ago.

For others, marriage meant convenience. Senior Paul Pinson said it was easier to see his wife 
because they did not have to find a place to meet. His wife agreed.

"It's harder to not be married if you're ready and if you love each other," senior Mia Pinson said.

The moral support received from a spouse was one advantage to being married while in college. 
Senior Steve Seegmiller found it encouraging to have someone to turn to. He said when he got 
down about a class or grade his wife was always there to lend comfort.

One adjustment senior LaDonna Seegmiller had to make when she married Steve was getting 
used to his way of studying. "Steve likes to watch TV all of the time," LaDonna said. "He has 
different study habits than I do."

Mrs. Pinson said she did not enjoy as much freedom after she married, but added, "Why be 
married if you want to be apart?"

Attitudes toward Students often changed after they married. "I'm not one of the guys anymore," 
senior Clay Rader said. He said it was hard for his friends and fraternity brothers not to treat him 
differently after he was married.

The Seegmiller's agreed. LaDonna said after many of her male classmates found out she was 
married, they treated her as if she were "off limits" to them. Steve had similar experiences.

While others took a walk on the wild side during college, married students chose to take their 
walk down the aisle. Anne McKern

A moment together helps Matt, Tracy and Malachi Rein get closer. Some students combined

When the sun rose above the campus on Tuesday, Jan. 17, students started just another day in 
Kirksville. The unusually warm weather for January invited students to shed their winter coats 
and replace them with shorts.

One student spent his morning escorting children to school as another read the St. Louis Post 
Dispatch.

Students spent the afternoon taking a ride, practicing harder or just playing with the boys. The 
instructions were not included and Jan. 17 blended in as just another day in the life of a 
northeast student.

Groups of seven and groups of seventy.

Groups with different goals and diverse ideas. Groups to add flavor to an otherwise bland 
education.

Students were not told which groups to join or why. Maybe they needed a change of pace from 
the everyday stress of college. Maybe they wanted practical experience for a future career. 
Maybe they joined to meet people with similar interests.

For whatever reasons, they joined groups. They joined social organizations and professional 
clubs. They participated in a horse show and a haunted house. They bonded together to create a 
drinking policy and to send a friend to a far-away home.

Groups provided a supplement to education. Students were not told to join groups.

But they did - Instructions Not Included.

Society provides major opportunities

Tribeta members such as Teresa Ralston, sr., aid in research on campus. Members also tutored 
biology students.

Beta Beta Beta tutor, Teresa Ralston, sr., helps Lisa Hampson, fr., study for a final. TriBeta 
recognized outstanding upperclass biology students.

What is TriBeta? Students asked this question last year. Dr. Frank Brooks of Oklahoma City 
University started Beta Beta Beta Biological Honor Society (TriBeta) in 1922. By 1925, TriBeta 
established itself as a national organization.

TriBeta recognized outstanding biology students, and according to Dr. Scott Ellis, faculty adviser, 
TriBeta "promoted comradery among biology majors and promoted biology research at NMSU." 
Drs. George Shinn and Gary Sells also served as advisers for the organization.

To be accepted, students were required to have a minimum 3.0 GPA, and they must have 
completed at least 45 hours of coursework, including Biology 107, 108 and 200.

Although seen as a fraternity for upperclass biology majors who excel in their field, Tri Beta also 
included freshmen.

TriBeta was not just for biology majors. The associate members were usually freshmen biology 
majors, transfer students, or those who didn't have enough hours, but had an interest. The 
associate members could become members if they chose.

TriBeta participated in many activities throughout the year. They took field trips, visited the St. 
Louis Zoo and entertained speakers who visited campus during the year. TriBeta also offered 
tutor sessions for biology students.

"As a substitute tutor, it gave me the opportunity to help others, and I felt like I had 
accomplished something," junior Wayne Coats, a pre-med/biology major, said.

The TriBeta members were the backbone of the organization, Shinn said.

"The motivation for the activities and services TriBeta provided came from the students rather 
than the faculty advisers," Shinn said.

Bowling in the Student Union Building games room occupies an afternoon for Brian Wade, jr., 
and Daniel Hoffeman. Area children benefitted from the time Campus Volunteers members 
spent with them.

Volunteers show concern for kids

The ads on TV say you can sponsor a child by giving a small amount of money every day. Some 
students found a way to help local children free of cost. They were the Campus Volunteers, 
members of a program similar to a big brother/big sister program.

Campus Volunteers vice president Brian Wade said the group usually started with at least 30 
people interested, but usually only 15-20 children were available, so the number soon 
decreased.

Children for the program were located through the Kirksville school system. The volunteers 
contacted the school counselor, who in turn contacted a teacher who might know children who 
needed assistance. According to Wade, the children's grade levels ranged from third grade to 
junior high.

Wade said the volunteers tried to interact with their children at least once a week. If they could 
not, they tried to call. The amount of time spent together depended on the child's schedule. The 
children usually came from single-parent homes or homes in which parents did not have much 
time to spend with their children. If the students had trouble finding time to spend with the 
child, they contacted the volunteer.

"It gave you a feeling of satisfaction if the little kid was having trouble, like in school, and you 
helped him and next time he did better," Wade said.

Volunteers shared a variety of experiences. Some activities included fishing, football, video 
games, or just talking with them.

Junior Vicki Peter volunteered for three years. She joined the group because she liked the idea 
of the big brother/big sister program at the YMCA. She took her child to camps, movies and a 
couple of plays. Peter said she also got involved because she lived so far from home.

"I missed the interaction with my younger brother at home," Peter said. "It helped to make the 
transition from living at home to living at school a little easier. I really enjoyed the satisfaction of 
helping out my little sister."

Peter said the children needed guidance and someone to help them.

"The kids needed older role models," Peter said. "They looked up to you. I think it was a 
worthwhile organization."

Golden Knights "drop in" for visit

From Seoul, South Korea to Kirksville, Missouri. A big change in cultures, but the distance did not 
phase the 76 members of "Golden Knights", the U.S. Army's Precision Parachute Team which 
performed a series of aerial maneuvers in cities across the world last year.

The team spends 250 days per year on the road conducting air shows in the United States, in 
foreign countries and at events such as the NFL Pro Bowl and the World's Fair. In 1988, the 
Knights performed in the opening ceremonies of the Summer Olympics in Seoul and also at the 
Sun Bowl in El Paso, Texas, before being commissioned by Army Staff Sgt. Jay Strong, to come to 
Kirksville. The parachuters were originally scheduled to jump at Stokes Stadium, but because the 
stadium did not meet regulations, (it had too many power lines), the demonstration moved to 
Kirksville high school.

Campus ROTC members assisted the team during their Kirksville visit. They
greeted the team members upon their arrival at the airport and provided transportation to the 
high school. The team's demonstration also involved the ROTC.

They distributed "Golden Knights" informational pamphlets and folded the United States flag, 
which the first jumper's suspension lines carried to the field.

Sgt. Maj. Richard Paquette said everybody in the ROTC had an enthusiastic attitude toward the 
Knights performance. He said even though there were very strong winds on the day of the 
demonstration, the jumpers were still able to complete their jumps with precision.

Paquette also enjoyed the performance. "I've seen the show many times before but I'm always 
impressed at their capabilities."

Campus Offering; prayer night held

Unlike Guns 'N Roses or .38 special, a campuswide prayer concert sponsored by Campus 
Christian Fellowship included non-electric guitars and religious lyrics. The concert gave students 
an opportunity to pray for common causes including students needs, the University, the United 
States and political leaders.

Joe Belzer, a campus minister and part-time student, organized the event for CCF. Me said the 
group had several objectives in mind for the evening.

"This is an opportunity to pray for our country, for our university, and for specific student 
needs," Belzer said. "We're instructed in the Bible to pray for our leaders. I feel like it (praying) 
has an impact on their decisions and is making a difference."

CCF had only sponsored a prayer concert on campus for two consecutive years, but similar 
gatherings had been held at universities around the nation for a
number of years.

CCF put up flyers across campus and welcomed non-members to attend the concert, Belzer said. 
The group invited anyone with personal concerns to bring them to the attention of CCF, and 
they would be prayed for. Despite the invitation, most of those who participated were members 
of CCF.

Sophomore Angela Shirk, a member of CCF, participated in the concert. She thought the concert 
provided a worthwhile and needed activity.

"I feel it's important to join together and pray for a common cause," Shirk said.

"College is a difficult time, and the only way to get through it is with help from friends and God."

College students still enjoyed rock music, but the prayer concert offered a diversion from the 
usual tunes and lyrics to help students through difficult times.

Center relocates prayers answered

Church services were much the same for Roman Catholic students but their home sweet 
Newman Center' moved.

Plans for the Center were finalized and scheduled to be completed by the fall of 1989. The new 
complex, located on the southeast corner of Davis and Normal Streets (behind Missouri Hall 
parking lot), had an estimated cost between $275,000 and $300,00.

Local businesses supported the move and made donations to help with the cost. Volunteers 
called alumni and current students and their parents to ask for donations.

Plans for the Newman Center included a leakproof roof and foundation (which were not present 
in the former center), a larger multipurpose room, a library and lounge, a larger kitchen, a 
blessed sacrament chapel and more office space.

"We have three people working out of one little office, the new space is really
needed," Newman Center volunteer Jean Hanna said.

The main reasons for building a new center were because of the former building s small size and 
deteriorating condition. The new location would be more visible because the house would be on 
a street comer.

Problems with the architect caused a delay in construction but the problems were resolved and 
work began in early spring.

In addition to the center being built, Cornerstone, a house in which seven Roman Catholic 
students lived together, was moved. The house was moved in order to be next to the new 
Newman Center. The students living in the house had to move out for aproximately two weeks 
while the house was moved.

After seeing one cornerstone laid and another one moved, students finally saw their new home 
developing from the initial idea stage to actual construction.

Amnesty debates debates penalty issue

One public forum held on campus did not consider a field of study or a problem concerning 
Residence Halls. It dealt with the issue of the death penalty.

On March 23, students and faculty gathered to discuss the use of torture and death by 
governments to punish criminals. Amnesty International sponsored the forum.

One argument brought up against the death penalty said an eye for an eye had no place in 
government. Another opposing argument said people who commit murder had the lowest 
repeat crime rate after being paroled.

A few people said they favored the death penalty because they did not want their tax dollars 
supporting hardened criminals.

Ray Barrow, associate professor of sociology, disagreed. He pointed out that it takes more 
money to put someone to death than it does to house and feed them the rest of their life.

While he did not claim to agree with the death penalty, David Gruber, assistant professor of 
philosophy, said the best argument he had heard for the death penalty could be found by 
studying the works of Kant, a German philosopher.

"Kant said you must respect a human being's autonomy and their rationality of decision 
making," Gruber said. "To respect a murderer you except his rationality in killing and then treat 
him the same. You owe him death. Otherwise you are patronizing his rationality."

Issue at hand, Tom Luft, fr., presents his side on the death penalty. The forum provided students 
with the opportunity to voice their opinions openly.

Debate on the death penalty inspires input from freshmen Randy Johnson and Mary Grundel. 
Amnesty International sponsored the forum.

Little showgirls show off their stuff

After almost two months of planning, the Showgirls held their first three-hour dance clinic on 
Dec. 3. Thirty girls from the Kirksville area met with the Showgirls in Kirk Gym. The girls ranged 
in age from six to twelve and learned routines they performed before a home basketball game Dec. 6.

"We send information to Greenwood and the Upper Elementary Schools in Kirksville," freshman 
Ann Haas, organizer of the event, said. We tried to expand it to areas around Kirksville, but it 
was too far for parents to drive for a one-time deal."

For $12, each girl received a T-shirt (to be worn for the big performance), a set of pompons, and 
Kool-aid and cookies during a break. The Showgirls collected approximately $180 after 
deducting costs of the poms, shirts, and refreshments. The money would be used to purchase 
new leotard uniforms with detachable skirts and silver metallic poms, sophomore Amy Ricker 
said.

The girls in fourth through sixth grade learned a routine to "Great Balls of Fire;" the younger girls 
in kindergarten through third grade learned "Headlines".

"The girls learned a routine and we learned how to make routines easier," Haas said. "The girls 
got confused on some of the moves. Everything was so new to them.We had to learn to speak clearly. 
It was a learning experience for everyone."

Although the performance ran smoothly, fewer girls attended than expected.

"It turned out really good for our first time," Haas said. "Hopefully there will be more promotion 
and more people will get involved next year. This will grow every year." Sherry Frierdich

Showgirl hopefuls follow instruction and learn new dance steps. Almost 30 girls attended the 
Little Showgirls clinic.

Sharp exaggerated movements and bright smiles are basic parts of Showgirls' routines. The 
Showgirls performed a new routine for each home basketball game.

Individual guidance characterizes a successful teaching method for Linda Bottrell, so. Patience 
and careful instructions helped the little showgirls learn their routine.

Jazz fest taps into area competition

Baldwin Hall transformed into a miniture Bourbon Street in Hew Orleans as young jazz muscians 
played during Phi Mu Alpha's 21st Annual Jazz Festival. The music fraternity sponsored the 
Festival with featured guest performer Mike Metheny.

Metheny, a nationally acclaimed jazz artist and former Northeast student, told of his 
relationship between jazz and Kirksville.

"I have wonderful, fond memories of those two years as far as going to Northeast and living in 
Kirksville," Metheny said. "My years in Kirksville were very important years for me, my jazz 
evolution and my development as a jazz musician."

The festival attracted bands from 17 school districts, including several junior high schools. Bands 
were placed in a schedule according to size and were judged by their performance relative to 
their size.

After performances were over, participants watched a concert by the NMSU Jazz Emsemble.

Senior Bill McKemy, president of Phi Mu Alpha, said the festival moved smoothly for a long day 
of competition.

"We filled our philosophical aims by furthering the cause of music education in America," 
McKemy said.

Other participants in the Festival were satisfied with events of the day. Larry Bennet, band 
director for Macon high school, had been a participant in the festival for over 14 years.

"I think it was well-judged and I throughly enjoyed the day," Bennet said. "Phi Mu Alpha did a 
great job organizing."

The success of the Festival dated back to 1968 when it began as a noncompetitive event. 
Twenty-one years later the event had included more than 800 bands.

Apathetic groups, undeserved label

Have you heard of the Pre-Dental Club or the Association for the Education of Young Children of 
Northeast Missouri or how about national Residence Hall Honorary? They existed along with 
more than 100 other organizations, not every club proved popular and prosperous but each had 
a purpose.

Sometimes people labeled organizations "apathetic" or "do-nothing clubs" because intentions 
and actions were not apparent to outsiders. Instead, their goal often could be found internally.

For example, organizations stemming from academic majors such as English or psychology were 
meant primarily to help students meet others in the field. To say they "did nothing" meant 
attaching an undeserved label.

There were also highly active divisional associations such as Psi Chi (psychology), 
Delta Sigma Pi (business), and Sigma Delta Chi (journalism) whose contributions 
became obvious and allowed community interaction.

"Every organization has its purpose," Director of Student Activities, Denise Rendina.

Sometimes the essence of existence merely honored those who had excelled academically, such 
as the scholastic fraternity Alpha Phi Sigma.

"I think it's good they give you recognition for something good you've done without asking a lot 
in return/ junior Cindy Whitehall, a member of National Residence Hall Honorary said.

Campus organizations offered a broad range of interests and honors. When students took time 
out to investigate campus associations, they could discover many options

of raising money.

Budget caters to students' interests

"All this great stuff and we hardly had to pay!" freshman Bev Carter said about the 
entertainment provided by the Student Activities Board. Students benefitted from the Board's 
reduced prices, but most did not know why they were so low. As in previous years, there wre 
two sources of money for SAB.

"A basic amount was given each year by the University," former SAB adviser Vonnie Nichols said. 
"Sticker sales also contributed a large part."

SAB Treasurer Gary Hughes said SAB received a yearly budget of $20,000 by the University.

"I estimate that we spent about $60,000 every year, but it worked out because we had extra 
money carried over from the previous year from sticker sales and movies."

Decisions about how the money would be spent were discussed at SAB weekly meetings. Last 
fall, each of the eight SAB committees submitted a budget for the upcoming year.

The publicity committee requested money to pay for posters, fliers and other necessary 
products. The concert committee suggested a sufficient amount to pay for the one concert 
during the year, and the equipment committee requested money to rent sound equipment and 
a button making machine. NMSU Live, special events, excursions, travel and other recreation 
committees all asked for money to present entertainment at a reasonable price
for the students.

"A concert could cost up to as much as $20,000 to $30,000," Hughes said.
The weekly meetings were attended by the 35 SAB representatives and any other students who 
had suggestions or comments.

Each Committee submitted a budget to Hughes for their approval.

"Sometimes we had to talk them down a little if they got too extravagant, but most know about 
how much money was necessary." Every purchase had to be signed by Nichols and Terry Smith, 
Dean of the Colleges.

The University funded the Board and the board's spending remained conservative.

They always had funds because money carried over from previous years. They did not request 
additional money from the University but their budget annual pumpkin carving contest invites 
students to increased for 1988 from the previous year.	

Hughes said, "We have plenty of money, but I wouldn't want to see it cut!

Lack of counseling causes problems

Problems? Who had problems? Most people experienced problems, whether large or small. But 
qualified counselors to advise people with problems were hard to find.

A counselor with a "good reputation" could not always be located and waiting lists became 
commonplace.

The Student Health Clinic, provided limited counseling to students.

"We (NMSU) have two quarter-time counselors who work a total of twenty-five hours a week," 
junior Mike Lyons, president of Psi Chi, a national honorary psychology fraternity, said. The 
number of counselors employed by the University, along with other questions, concerned the 
fraternity.

"The problem now is not only the lack of counselors, but also the lack of advertisement," Lyons 
said. "It doesn't matter if we have services if nobody knows about them."

Psi Chi advertised with posters, pamphlets and talked to the resident and peer advisers about 
the problem. They hoped the advertisements would put pressure on the administration to 
consider the situation.

"Student Senate is funding the money while Psi Chi is making the posters and pamphlets," 
freshman representative Jennifer Chrismer said. "Senate investigated increasing the counseling 
services and advertisements. How both are working together so the counseling clinic can be 
used more."

If a student did not know about services on campus they had to go off campus to search for a 
qualified counseler. Other questions involved expenses, insurance coverage, and the wait for an 
appointment.

"Students deserve a qualified mental health staff which is actively involved in the academic 
community," James Tichenor, professor of psychology, said. "(This is) to help ensure that 
students will be maintained on campus rather than being sent elsewhere or hospitalized."

A counseling service on campus gave students a facility they had easier access to. As long 
as the problem did not require hospitalization, students could talk about problems to a counselor 
on campus. Tom Crowder

Students harness equestrian talent

More than 15 University students and Kirksville residents spent Nov. 13 horsing around, but 
they took their work seriously. They competed in 20 events during a Western and English riding 
competition sponsored by the Horseman's Association at the University farm. The show, held 
twice each year, gave students the opportunity to show what they had learned and to display 
their skills. It also gave them a chance to train their horses for larger competitions.

The competition included many events. The halter competition determined how well the horse 
conformed to the standards of his breed, and the showmanship event showed how well the 
riders handled their horses.

Senior Michele Hoyne said although it was important for riders to appear composed, the horses' 
behavior played a big part in determining winners.

"They looked to see how correctly he performed the commands that were called, and he could not 
break his gait at any time," Hoyne said.

The top four winners in each event earned ribbons, and points were totaled to determine an 
overall winner. Gayle Waugh, president, finished first.

Junior Kathy Hamann spent all morning getting ready for the show, but said the results were 
worth it.

"You get excited because you prepare a lot for only two minutes in the ring," she said. "I guess 
it's all worth it with ribbons and prizes and all the glory of winning."

Sophomore Laura Bennett said she spent two or three hours each day working with cattle.

"We try to get them used to different sounds, different people," Bennett said. "You just try to 
get them used to you."

Students put in many long hours at the farm, and their hard work payed off when they got the 
chance to display some down-home riding skills.

Careers develop on the playground

While some students spent their spare time watching soap operas or working in the Student 
Union Building, others chose to read nursery rhymes aloud and play Duck, Duck, Goose. They 
worked at the Child Development Center.

The Child Development Center provided a learning ground for students planning to work with 
young children after graduation. The Center also provided a convenient child care facility. Jerri 
Kropp, director of the Child Development Center, said 70 percent of the children who attended 
the Center were children of students, faculty or staff members.

Primarily junior and senior level child and family development majors staffed the Center.

"They are putting into practice what they learn in their classes," Kropp said. "The students read 
about theory and research and they can see that being put into practice here."

The teaching assistants worked 20 hours each week at the Center, spending 15 with the 
children. They were also responsible for curriculum planning, conducting parent conferences, 
and attending weekly staff meetings.

"I don't feel really scared now about graduating and going out and finding a job because I've had 
the experience of planning, implementing and being a teacher," senior Dee Runnels said. 
Runnels said she benefited from the experience of working with children.

Criteria for choosing Child Development Center teachers was based on grades, ACT scores, an 
interview, successful completion of certain child development courses, and demonstration of 
expertise with children.

Haney Weber, assistant to the Dean of Admissions and Records/Registrar, enrolled her 
daughter, Kelly, at the Child Development Center. "I think the program is great," Weber said. 
"You can tell the staff is really excited about working with the kids. All of their ideas are fresh 
and new."

Kropp said the facility was unique because students were given hands-on experience in their 
field.

"The students actually have the opportunity to find out if this is what they want to do with their 
degree," Kropp said.

Drawing attention marks donations

With only 60 seconds to sketch a picture and have team members guess the subject, 
participants needed to think fast on their feet. Members of campus organizations and residence 
halls participated in a game similar to the television show Win, Lose or Draw.

The Speech Pathology Organization sponsored the event. The group donated the entry fees to 
the Chariton Valley Learning Center for handicapped children.

"We chose them because the patients there deal with speech pathologists," senior Rebecca 
Barker said. "It's the only place in Kirksville involved with our profession."

Nine organizations participated in the first round held Feb. 22 and the winning teams returned 
Feb. 23 for finals.

The organization had raised funds for the Chariton Valley Learning Center for more than five 
years. Local merchants donated prizes and gifts certificates including an ice chest, hats and 
candy bars.

"lt was a really good idea," junior Steve Lieske, said. "It was a great service project for something 
that was really worthwhile."

To play Win, Lose or Draw, one person drew a picture on the board while other team members 
tried to guess what the drawing portrayed. If the team of the person sketching could not guess 
the answer on one minute or less, the opposing team was given the chance to guess the 
drawing within ten seconds.

"It was difficult to get everything together but it seems that all the organizations had fun even if 
they didn't win," Angie Lindahl, president of Speech Pathology Organization, said. "Our 
organization is small but we feel anything we can do is going to help the Chariton Valley 
Learning Center

Education bridges the generation gap

Homeland attire and culture surround freshmen Dibio Borges and Ziaul Abedin. Borges brought 
along Dundee for assistance.

When Nes'e Kivanc graduated in 1960, she felt she would never return to Northeast. But almost 
30 years later she returned and brought her cousin, Meltem Es, who enrolled as a freshman in 
the spring semester.

As a student from Turkey in the late 1950s, Nes'e enjoyed the opportunities availabale to her at 
the University so much that she encouraged Meltem to enroll. During her college career, Nes'e 
became a member of the International Club and worked in the library. After graduating Nes'e 
moved back to Instanbul where she practiced law.

She said she enjoyed being a part of the International Club, and that her involvement with the 
organization helped her adjust to American customs. "The thing I liked most about the campus 
was my friends and the friendships I made through the International Club," Nes'e said.

During the 30 years following Nes'e's graduation, two presidents had come and gone, four 
buildings were erected, and four residence halls came into existence. Campus looked dif 
Campus looked different.

The changes impressed Nes'e when she returned to campus, but perhaps the most shocking 
addition was Ryle Hall. "When I saw the sign of Ryle Hall, suddenly tears came to my eyes, 
because I knew knew Dr. Ryle while he was still living," Nes'e said. "It was somehow freezing to 
see his name set in stone."

Meltem started her first semester in January and followed in her cousin's footsteps. One of the 
first events she attended was international Night, sponsored by the International Club. She 
enjoyed meeting people and hoped to become more involved in the organization throughout 
college.

"I think it gives me a chance to learn about other countries and different cultures," Meltem said.

While the International Club did not serve as Nes'es only reason for encouraging Meltem to 
attend, the friends she made with other foreign students through the club played a major role.

The 1904 group picture of the Demosthenonians shows the A program from 1904 sets the 
debate agenda. The original group had a strong following. The group returned to campus in 
society remained active for more than 10 years. 1987.

Demosthenes (384-322 B.C.) lived as an orator born in Athens, Greece. As a young man, he 
taught rhetoric and wrote speeches for others and in later years he turned to politics. Many 
scholars refer to Demosthenes as the greatest Athenian orator.

In 1904, the University debate team adopted the orator's name and became the 
Demosthenonian Society. The team competed intramurally against other campus debating 
teams. The society disbanded when, as junior member Tim Wichmer said, "The concept fell out 
of fashion."

The Society resurrected in 1987 when instructor of English, Cole Woodcox, presented his idea 
for a revival of the debating organization. He planned to base the society on the presentation of 
open seminars that would address topics and prompt liberal arts discussion.

The purpose of the re-formatted Demosthenonian society intended to promote the idea of speech 
communication by holding lectures open to the public, sophomore society member Kelsey Forsythe said.

The organization invited both faculty members and students to attend the lectures the society 
presented.

Last year, Wichmer gave a presentation for the society on political conservatism.

"It was a challenge to present my ideas and open them up for debate, Wichmer said.

"It was a good experience. It (the Society) helped integrate various disciplines to provide coherency 
in my studies."

Assistant Professor of Philosphy, Dr. Ladelle McWhorter, addresses a question from the audience in 
a discussion on values. 

Each semester, the lecture series focused on a broad topic centered around "Values: 
Confrontations and Decisions," served as the fall semester topic. The members chose the topic, 
invited the speakers and held discussion afterwards, since the sharing of information and 
different perspectives were the goals of the Demosthenonian Society.

A problem requires Laurie Turner, tax instructor, to help Tony Hutson, sr. The Accounting Club 
also helped students by tutoring them in elementary accounting classes.

Tax time gives Gina Giovanoni, sr. and Janet Burd, sr., the chance to test their accounting skills. 
The Accounting Club offered their services to anyone who needed tax help.

April 15- the dreaded day when Americans must mail their income taxes. The Accounting Club 
came to the rescue of many before April 15 when the lists of numbers just did not add up.

The club offered income tax services to students and the Kirksville community. Members 
attended four training sessions involving state and federal specifications on taxes to become 
familiar with the procedures involved.

The Club then sponsored sessions about filing tax returns, on four Saturdays during the months 
of February and March.

More people participated this year. As many as 35 to 40 people signed up for each session. This 
could have been a result of recent changes in tax laws.

Under the supervision of qualified individuals such as tax instructor Laurie Turner, the 
Accounting

Club had support for their free tax service. Some Accounting Club members, such as seniors 
Peggy Wolf and Debbie Steiner completed a course in tax preparation, to help the project.

Senior Scott Tate noticed the problems created by new income tax laws. "Since 1986, there have 
been a lot of new problems since the tax law is very changeable," Tate said. "A lot of students 
don't realize certain scholarships are taxable."

The services not only helped people confused by tax laws, but also helped the club.

"It gives accounting students practical experience they're going to use later," junior Michael 
Naber said.

Since instructions were not always clear for the piles of tax forms, students called upon the 
Accounting Club to make the numbers add up.

Debate makes film a real temptation

"The Last Temptation of Christ" prompts Courtney Steward, sr., to express her views. The idea 
stemmed from a class project.

Controversy hit campus Oct. 26 as the Media Law and Ethics class conducted a forum on the 
movie, "The Last Temptation of Christ."

The forum centered around the conflict of whether the movie should be shown on campus. 
Panel members were seniors Chris Holmes, president of the Society of Professional Journalists, 
Kevin Fitzpatrick and junior Steve Fisher to defend the campus' right to see the film.

"It should be shown because it generates dialogue about Christ," Fitzpatrick said.

Opposing the film's content on the panel were Graduate Student Lon Harrelson and professor of 
biology Donald Kangas. Their argument concluded the movie weakened the religious faith of the 
public.

"Beliefs from the movie will have eternal consequences if you have faith but [the movie] gets 
you to doubt it," Kangas said.

Les Dunseith, instructor of mass communication, favored showing the movie and saw the forum 
as a positive event.

"I think it was healthy," Dunseith said. "Both sides had a forum where they could give their 
views, Lon did a good job of presenting his views. However, both sides were too conciliatory."

Harrelson agreed that both sides presented their view well but questioned how constructive the 
forum was.

"I'm not sure how productive it was," Harrelson said. "I thought both sides were well 
represented."

The movie, starring Willem Dafoe as Jesus Christ, received varying reviews from critics.

The forum focused on the movie's controversial content.

"My viewpoint (of the movie) didn't change," senior Craig Whitworth said. "Most of the people 
there were mass communication majors and Language and Literature faculty who were in favor 
of the movie showing."

There were no plans to bring the movie to Kirksville and the Student Activites Board had no 
intention of bringing it to campus.

"I don't think it will ever be shown on campus unless concerned students do it themselves," 
Fitzpatrick concluded.

Will Fitzsimmons

Graduate Student Lon Harrelson comments on "The Last Temptation of Christ." Harrelson said 
the controversial film should not be shown on campus.

With a look of disgust, seniors Kevin Fitzpatrick, Steve Fisher, and Chris Holmes, advocate 
bringing the movie to campus. The film spurred controversy over the first amendment rights.

Cubs baseball fans prove to be big hit

The University Players hit a homer with the production of "Bleacher Bums," as theater fans filled 
the Little Theatre in Baldwin Mall in October. Although baseball season had ended, the performance 
proved to be a grand slam.

"It was really unique the way they had the audience watching the fans watching the game," 
freshman Barb Halpenny said.

The play originally started as an improvisation of fans at a Cub's baseball game performed by the 
Organic Theatre Company of Chicago. As the plot grew and evolved, the characters developed 
specific personalities and the play evolved into a script.

Ron Rybkowski, scene director and master electrician, said listening to the announcer of the 
game presented one of the main problems with the production because of technical difficulties.

"The show itself was of an unusual nature," sophomore Jeff Muettman said. "There were no 
breaks, no chances to get away. You had to be doing something Lancelot played by Doug 
Mitleberg, fr., chooses the door that decides his fate while his attendants Anthony Allen, sr., and 
Hick Strecker, so., look on. The 1988 showcase productions presented plays with new actors and 
directors all the time, but you couldn't steal the focus away from other people."

Work on "Bleacher Bums" began during the second week of fall semester classes and cost the 
University Players approximately $120 to produce. Rybkowski said the production crew 
constructed most of the scenery from material already in stock in order to keep the cost down 
and leave a higher budget for plays performed later in the year.

The stage scenery consisted of a few background props and a set of bleachers. An announcer 
provided game coverage of the outs, strikes, homeruns and grand slams.

Junior David Neale played the role of the announcer instead of the recorded sound of actual 
teams playing a game.

The Little Theatre sold out its 200 seats on opening night, forcing students to wait in lines to see 
the production.

"We had to turn people away at the door, there just wasn't enough room for everyone," 
Rybkowski said.

A Cheer for the Cubs by Chad Dobbs, sr., leads Phil Brosnan, so., and Jeff Huettman, so., to 
express distaste. The University Players production featured a cast without a starring role.

Sound the trumpets! Make way for the Queen! Queen Zenobia is coming!
Queen Zenobia, better known as senior Sue Peeler, received her crown as co-ruler of the Society 
of Creative Anachronism Sept. 17. She reigned over Calontir, one of SCA's 12 kingdoms located 
in Missouri, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska and part of Arkansas.

There were 30 local groups within the Kingdom of Calontir. Kirksville made up the Kingdom of 
the Shire of Thousand Hills.

A history class founded SCA in 1967 to experience "living history" of the Middle Ages, 600 to 
1600 A.D., Peeler said. The SCA emerged locally in 1978 and became part of the kingdom of 
Calontir in 1984.

SCA was not only a campus organization, but also a national non-profit educational organization.

One of an SCA member's first duties required the member to pick a "persona." This involved 
choosing a name, time period, country, and a place where the "persona" could have lived.

All SCA members were assumed to be of royal lineage. A royal title could only be earned 
through good deeds.

But students were not the only members. Anyone could be a member, Peeler said.
"I heard a lot about it (SCA) back home (in Colorado), but I didn't have time for it," freshman 
Michelle McClintock said. "I wanted to join something that was not necessarily connected with 
the University."

The queen and king held "court" throughout the five-state area, presented awards and acted as 
administrators.

Their reigns came to an end in March, when the next crown tournament took place in St. Louis.

Magic is not required magic for Erika Jarden, fr., known as the next crown tournament little witch, 
to participate in the pumpkin carving contest took place in St. Louis sponsored by the Student Activities Board.

Specialty dishes and candlelight create an ancient atmosphere in the Student Union Building. 
The Dec. 3 Society of Creative Anachronism Christmas banquet featured medieval foods, 
including pheasant and sausage pie, served on pewter dishes.

Members sing Ye old tyme Christmas carols and wear costumes to portray their "personas." 
Although costumes served as the most identifiable trait for SCA, the organization also 
participated in regional events.

Post-election plans rally Republicans

The Republicans won the U.S. presidency and a strong national foothold. Despite the party's 
stability, the College Republicans maintained their membership and remained active after 
November elections ended.

The group decided to hold weekly forums during the spring semester to discuss various issues. 
The first forum on Feb. 2 promoted discussion about abortion. The Young Democrats were 
members of a panel which supported abortion. More than 70 people attended.

College Republican President Tim Wichmer said the high attendance count of the first forum 
proved successful.

"It was great," he said. "We didn't have too much publicity for it but it still went over well."

Freshman Salvatore Montalbano thought the group should remain active year-round.

"I feel there is still work to be done," Montalbano said. "Political issues don't
die after the elections. I'm still involved because these issues are important to me. The forums 
will help us discuss these topics. Topics for the forum will be controversial, such as gun control 
and capital punishment."

Senior Andrea Ware said the organization continued to be active after elections because once 
becoming a member meant you continued to be a member.

"The College Republicans still have a lot to do with the Republican Party and what they believe 
in," Ware said. "You don't just unregister yourself after the elections."

Wichmer said the number of members in the College Republicans did not increase because of 
the presidential elections, nor did membership decrease after the elections.

"We still have the same people," Wichmer said. "We are just trying to increase excitement now 
that the elections are over. Hopefully the forums will help this."

Business chapter seeks brotherhood

Delta Sigma Pi received the award for most outstanding chapter in the nation for three years of 
their ten-year history. Delta Sigma Pi, a professional business fraternity, promoted brotherhood 
through service, social, and fundraising activities.

Since it began in 1979, Delta Sigma Pi increased its membership to 400 members, including 
alumni. The number of members included 84 actives and 15 pledges. Only a select few could 
join Delta Sigma Pi if they had a 2.70 GPA, 12 hours of college credit and were a Business or 
Accounting major. Although the fraternity grew in recent years, the members preferred to stay 
small to maintain a strong brotherhood.

Delta Sigma Pi increased their overall GPA to more than 3.0 last year.

"We've been able to recruit better members with the University's higher standards. This really 
helps when looking for active members," senior John Laurent, president, said.

Last year, Delta Sigma Pi received the "most outstanding chapter in the region" award at their 
annual conference held at Lake of the Ozarks. The criteria for the award included active 
participation, fundraising activities, a respected pledge program and strong brotherhood. The 
categories were totaled on a point system through the central office in Ohio. There were 200 
Delta Sigma Pi chapters nationwide.

Laurent said a strong professional brotherhood is what set them apart from other organizations.

"Our fraternity is not one person -- it's everyone. I'm glad to accept these awards for all the hard 
work we've done," Laurent said.

Really going home for Christmastide

Five years ago Phillipe Duggan, a senior from Bangor North Wales, believed he would return 
home for Christmas every year. Little did he Know the United States would become his home for 
nearly six years because of the cost of traveling overseas. Last fall, his friends and more than 400 
students, faculty members and organizations raised funds to buy a plane ticket for the Blanton 
Mall Resident Advisor.

"We thought about the idea last year but it never got off the ground. This year we were 
determined to send Phillipe home for Christmas break," sophomore Sherif Malek, organizer of 
the fundraiser, said.

Malek, along with 22 workers, collected money door-to-door for four weeks. "We collected 
everything from 13 cents fo $20," Malek said. "In the end approximately $1,000 was raised."

Duggan came to the United States in 1983 taking part in an eight-week International Lions 
exchange program. While staying with his host family in Keosouqua, Iowa, he decided to stay 
and attend the junior college in Burlington, Iowa, where he received an associate's degree.

In the fall of 1985, Duggan came here to finish a degree in Special Education. During that year, 
his mother and two brothers visited him.

"1985 was the last time I saw my mom and my two brothers. Duggan said. It has been since 
1983 that I have seen my other four siblings. I have never seen any of my nieces or nephews."

"I never dreamed I would ever get to go home, especially during Christmas," Duggan said. "I feel 
fortunate to be blessed with so many friends and I can't thank them enough for all their 
kindness."

Winter formal is a masked success

As soon as couples entered the room, they found themselves in the midst of large, glittery 
masks hanging from the wall. After stepping onto the darkened dance floor, young couples 
watched the soft colored lights shine and listened to the beat of the music.

Couples began the evening masked from each other. The masks were painted with accents of 
lace, glitter and sequins. On Dec. 3, Blanton/Mason Hall sponsored a formal dance with the 
theme "Masquerade" and dance turned into a success.

Every year the co-ed residence hall holds two dances-one in the fall and the other in the spring. 
Kathleen Fitzgerald headed a committee of several people who started the "Masquerade" plans 
in October.

For two months, the committee worked steadily to ensure a fun and profitable evening for the 
residents of the hall.

The committee hired a disc jockey to provide music and entertainment for the event. Residents 
were asked for their input in the music through a list kept at
the hall desk.

The dance, held at the Thompson Campus Center, featured hors d'oeuvres prepared by the deli 
at Hy-Vee, a change from previous years. In the past, the dances included a full meal with a 
higher price which prevented many students from attending.

"I thought it was fantastic," sophomore Elizabeth Burke said. "It turned out a lot better than I 
thought. The theme helped a lot because everyone went hog-wild with masks and the like."

During the dance, several men serenaded Hall Director Dorene Schmitz with the song, "Merry 
Christmas, Baby." Following their performance, the Resident Adviser's from Blanton/Nason Hall 
performed a rap about busting a keg party in the residence halls.

"Even though they have the ability to bust us, I know they still care about us," Burke added.

"I had a really good time and I appreciated all the people who came," sophomore Cindy Jones 
said. "It made the dance a lot more fun."

Housemom provides Somplace like home

She has three sons of her own but Mina Estes "adopted" thirty more when she became 
housemother to the Alpha Gamma Rho fraternity.

Estes took care of one of the largest families in Kirksville for the fifth year in a row. Her job 
entailed more than keeping the house clean.

"Sometimes I dust the chapter room, but not very often," Estes said. "What I do is work with the 
house manager, plan meals, make out grocery lists and supervise the cooking."

Mother Estes also aided the men in preparation of the evening meal. "The boys do all the 
cooking," Estes said. "At 3:30 the kitchen crew starts the dinner, and I supervise until everything 
is under way, then I go back to my room. At 5:30 someone comes to escort me to dinner and I 
eat with the guys."

Before coming to Alpha Gamma Rho, Estes taught Music and English in western Missouri for 21 
years. One day she saw an advertisement in the Kansas City Star for a houseparent in an 
agricultural fraternity.

"It was hard getting adjusted during the first year," she said. "I'm comfortable around young 
men, but I was used to having a regular schedule."

Estes enjoyed her job. She wrote letters to the members' parents asking for their son's favorite 
recipes. She also advised the Ag Rho little sisters.

Estes said there were some disadvantages to her situation. Even though she went to Ag Rho 
parties, she did not drink and she missed socializing with people her own age.

"She's been excellent," Glenn Wehner, faculty adviser for Alpha Gamma Rho said. "She takes a 
lot of pressure off me, because I can't be there all the time."

"I think every fraternity should have a housemother," senior Ag Rho mother," Darryl Barker, 
senior Ag Rho member, said. "It promotes respect."

"Our national chapter insists, if at all possible, that we have a houseparent,"
Wehner explained. But Estes remained the only fraternity houseparent on campus. And as Ag 
Rho Dinner preparation is only part of a housemother's job. Nina neophyte Faul Diamond Estes 
wrote to members parents for their favorite recipes. put it, "She's always there when we need 
her."

AKL nightmare on Osteopathy Street

The Alpha Kappa Lambda fraternity created a nightmare for United Way in their house Oct. 28-
31.

The fraternity turned their home into a haunted house to fulfill their community service 
requirement for the second year. Work began the week before Halloween to create the illusion 
of graveyards, murders and other frightful things in the bottom two floors of the house. The 77 
members of the fraternity participated in the construction necessary to complete the project. 
They invested more than $500 in building materials. Members publicized the event more than in 
previous years.

The house made a profit of $100 for United Way during a four day fundraiser. More than 900 
people took the nightmare tour, where members of the fraternity waited in comers and 
crannies for their chance to scare the visitors.

The house's eerie attractions, including a grave 23 yard, haunting music, a deer
side, and a few "dead" bodies scattered along the tour. A chainsaw armed ghoul provided the 
finishing touch and chased visitors out the door. The fraternity took every precautions to assure 
the safety of the tour.

Those who took the tour seemed "pleased" with the show. Most who exited the building were 
out of breath and a few were screaming.

"The chainsaw did it at the end," freshman Maria Powers said.

Joe Bullock, fraternity president, said the house drew a variety of visitors from young children to 
students and older adults.

"The support was about 50-50 (between university students and the community)," Bullock said.

The tour attracted more than 100 people in a single night to the house.

"I was really happy with the turnout," Bullock said. "It was a lot of fun and helped bring the guys 
together. It worked out really well." The fraternity planned to have the project next year.

Pledges help charity Jailbirds call for help

Imagine yourself locked away behind bars and denied freedom until your bail is paid. As a 
prisoner you go to jail, receive prison stripes and the priveleges of a phone call. But there is a 
catch. You ask for monetary pledges to make the price of your bail.

Although your sentence only lasts one hour, locks are real and you have no choice but to stay.

That was how 61 students, faculty, and Kirksville residents spent their time to help Lambda Chi 
Alpha and KTUF raise $6,800 in pledges for the March of Dimes. Even though the pledges may 
not have met the exact amount pledged, Tom Magnani, vice president, said the fraternity 
expected at least 90 percent turned in.

"Some friends of mine told me they were having roommate problems, so I went over to their room to 
check out the situation and I was kidnapped," senior Shelly Frank said. "Two friends of mine who 
are Lambda Chi's took me to jail, and I was on the phone trying to get pledges so I could make bail."

The jail was located in the Adair County Court House from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Nov. 1-3.

"We raised $1,400 more than we did last year," Magnani said. "There was a lot more participation from 
the community and the campus this year."

Magnani explained the fraternity's involvement expanded their community service to Kirksville 
and the surrounding areas.

"The community projects got us away from the beer drinking and partying image," Magnani 
said. "It showed that we as a fraternity wanted to help out people and the community too."

Lambda Chi Alpha worked on the "Jail and Bail" project for the second year. Magnani said the 
fraternity plans to make the event an annual project and continue to work for the March of 
Dimes.

Religion - based start Greeks keep faith

A fraternity and religion. For Phi Kappa Theta, religion was an important part of their 
brotherhood.

In 1889 a group of Catholic men decided to form a fraternity different from others at the time. 
They combined the social, service and fraternal aspects of brotherhood to become a group 
which could withstand the prejudices held against them.

Although few prejudices against Catholics still existed in 1989, the Phi Kappa Theta fraternity 
remained on many campuses.

"We've maintained our Christian ideals even though we no longer require our members to be 
Catholic," junior Chris Volz said.

Volz said discovering that the fraternity had Catholic beginnings was a big factor in his decision 
to pledge.

"It immediately created a bond between me and the fraternity Knowing that many of the other 
members shared the same set of beliefs that I did."

"The rituals are deeply rooted in Catholic thought and Catholic teaching," the Rev. Les Neimeyer 
said.

Neimeyer, who served as chaplain for Phi Kappa Theta said they were more Catholic than any 
other fraternity at Northeast. On other campuses, such as the University of Missouri-Rolla, the 
number of Catholic Phi Kappa Theta members was much higher.

Being a chaplain for a social fraternity was a somewhat different role than most priests play. "I 
mix with them socially," Niemeyer said. "I don't separate the social aspect of the fraternity. I see 
that as part of the whole person." He said this made it easier for members to approach him with 
problems.

Like members of many other fraternities, sophomore Carl Strasser liked having brothers to lean 
on in times of need. "If my faith seems a little bit weak, I always have someone to turn to," 
Strasser said.

Religion and fraternities. Perhaps they did mix.

Cannon is tradition But origin unknown

Students were used to seeing an old cannon in front of the Phi Sigma Kappa fraternity house. 
The cannon became a symbol of tradition. But few people knew why it sat in front of the house 
or what it meant.

Senior Ed Coil, wrote a Phi Sig newsletter about the fraternity's history. "I didn't find out much 
about the cannon," he said. "The reason for having it is not in our pledge manual but there is a 
picture of it in it. I believe all chapters have one."

Coil said the cannon, known as "The Gamma Gun," named after the local Gamma chapter of Phi 
Sigma Kappa), never operated. The steel cannon did have a mechanism to fire cannonballs.

The fraternity had replaced the cannon three times. "Supposedly, the Sig Tau s threw the first 
one in the lake," Coil said. "The second one fell completely
apart."

Originally named Phi Sigma Epsilon, the fraternity became Phi Sigma Kappa when the two fraternities 
merged in 1985.

"When this happens, you change the name to the older fraternity's," Jay Groene, senior, said. 
"We kept the cannons as part of Phi Sigma Epsilon's tradition."

Roger Durham, a Tau Kappa Epsilon alumni and 1965 graduate, said he remembered when the 
cannon operated. "They used to drag it to all the football games and shoot it off," he said. "Each 
fraternity had their own thing; for the TKE's it was a bell. I remember that the Phi Sigs were 
proud of that cannon; I don't think they ever missed a game."

Jack Bowen, instructor in the Division of Health and Exercise Science and Phi Sig alumni, 
graduated in 1958. "We didn't have the cannon while I was here," he said. "We lived in a 
different place, on Elson. I don't have any idea where it came from."

Even though few people knew what the cannon stood for, the tradition continued. The cannon 
sat on the front lawn just as it had for over 20 years.

Lil' sisses banned Loyalty remains

The Fall of 1987 looked promising for the Sigma Tau Gamma Beta Babes. Interest during rush 
was overwhelming and spirits were optimistic during their pledge season. Little did they know, 
that the following summer would pose a threat to their existence.

During the national Sigma Tau Gamma convention the little sister organizations were banned 
from the local chapters as an affiliation to the fraternity. "It was difficult changing our ways, but 
the guys were supportive and our loyalty was too strong to just give up," sophomore Beta Babe 
member Wendy Bender, said.

The Beta Babes were not alone. Sigma Phi Epsilon also banned their little sister organization the 
Golden Hearts nationally two years ago. "We are now called Sweethearts," little sister president 
Mary Woodburn, said. "It feels as if nothing has changed, we are as close as ever."

The threat causing the organizations to be banned arose because the little sisters wanted to 
become full members. "The more the fraternities recognize the little sisters the more likely they 
could prove in court to become a [full] member," Les Dunseith, Delta Chi adviser, said.

Dunseith added the threat has been reinforced with a recent court case involving women who 
wanted to join a local men's social organization. The women won the case.

Interest and loyalty made this a strong lil' sis campus, Dunseith said. David Clithero, lnter-
fraternity Council adviser, believed the organizations posed a threat to the Greek system as a 
whole.

"The little sister detract from the sororities on campus and take away potential members from 
the sororities," Clithero said.

As long as the support from the little sister groups remained loyal and in the best interest of the 
fraternities they had a hope of winning the battle of existence.

Gamma Phi grown Local state in limbo

"Dream, Believe, and Become" -- the goal of 65 females who were members of the only local 
sorority on campus, Gamma Phi Delta.

Gamma Phi Delta social sorority began in 1982 as an interest group called Women for Greek 
Expansion (WGE). The group surfaced when two women felt the existing sororities could not 
satisfy their needs. The WGE investigated bringing national sororities to campus but could not 
do so because of finances and size.

In 1983 WGE voted to remain a local chapter and gave their group a Greek letter name, Gamma 
Phi Delta. In March 1985, they received their permanent charter and began to offer a social 
sorority different from the existing campus sororities.

They participated in many of the same activities other sororities did, but they did not pay as 
much for dues as the national sororities.

Gamma Phi Delta had 65 active members and the numbers increased each semester.
The sorority held two non-voting positions on the Panhellenic Council.

"Even though they are non-voting seats we get to voice our opinion and have an influence in the 
Greek system," junior Karen Gieselman said.

Members of other sororities thought Gamma Phi Delta should go national or get a different 
national organization started.

"It would be advantageous for them to go national in order to vote," junior Chrissy Etter, 
member of Sigma Kappa social sorority, said. "As of now we only have four voting sororities. If 
we had five it would be better for decision-making."

With only four national sororities on campus, Gamma Phi Delta members were pressured to 
align with a national sorority and end their status as the only local sorority.

"I see us going national as a long-term goal," Junior Sandy Merrell, Gamma Phi Delta member, 
said. "If and when we do, we will have to go under another sorority name."

Tight restrictions Close open parties

Insurance is a necessity for everyone. But concerns about alcohol, drugs and hazing made 
insurance companies unwilling to insure fraternities.

Social fraternities adopted the Risk Management Policy to qualify for insurance offered by 
Fraternity Insurance Purchasing Group, Inc., and to comply with National Chapters.

"The reason why we adopted this policy was for insurance purposes," Stuart Lindemann, 
president of Delta Chi, said. "Getting insurance for fraternities without a policy like this was 
almost impossible."

According to David Clithero, Interfratemity Council adviser, more than 15 national fraternities 
adopted the policy after lawsuits arose from non-restraint in some policy areas.

There were five categories in the policy: alcohol and drugs, hazing, sexual abuse, safety and 
education. Some of the rules concerning alcohol were already in effect prior to the adoption of 
the policy, but the majority of them were new. The Risk Management Policy deemed serving 
alcohol to minors a violation. A guideline stated, "Open parties, meaning those with unrestricted 
access by nonmembers of the fraternity without specific invitation, shall be prohibited."

According to Phi Kappa Tau Regional Director, Tom Hazelton, the guideline did not mean one 
must receive a written invitation to attend the fraternity's function, but added, could be in the 
future.

The policy prohibited cosponsoring an event with an alcohol distributor or charitable 
organization if alcohol was served. The policy also prohibited the purchasing of alcohol with 
chapter funds.

"We already had a hazing policy, so this was not much of a change," Joe Bullock, president of 
AKL, said.

Section three stated that no fraternity would tolerate or condone any form of sexually abusive 
behavior, whether physical, mental or emotional. The last section required all fraternity 
members to be instructed on the rules and guidelines of the policy.

Hard work pays off Greek numbers rise

The number of people joining Greek organizations on campus increased again last year when 
326 students pledged fraternities and sororities.

Fraternity members thought everyone worked harder last year than in previous years to get 
more men involved in Greek life.

"We worked very hard to show the benefits that being a member of a social fraternity brings," 
sophomore John Houlihan, Tau Kappa Epsilon member, said.

Men gathered at assemblies on the first night of fraternity rush to talk to representatives from 
each fraternity. Then, the men chose the rush parties they want day of rush, they signed up for 
the fraternity of their choice.

The sororities also took an increased number pledges during formal rush, held the first week of 
school, 125 women pledging.

As a whole, I thought rush went great," junior Laura Keller, Alpha Sigma Alpha rush chairwoman, 
said. "There were more girls signed up and not nearly as many dropped as compared to the 
previous year."

During sorority rush, women were required to attend one informal party for each sorority. By 
having the informal parties, potential members learned a little more about each sorority.

After the informal parties, rushees were invited back to formal parties and then to preference 
parties to choose which sorority fit their interests.

"I had a really good time in rush. I liked the fact that we got to go to all the sororities, but I 
thought it was a little too formal," Shelley hawker, freshman Delta Zeta pledge said.

For the third consecutive year, the Interfraternity Council enforced dry rush, no dry rush 
violations were reported.

Freshman Dirk Burmeister said although wet rush may be more fun, dry rush had its advantages. 
"If you rush a fraternity, it doesn't show what the fraternity is really like if they are drinking."

Stereotype causes sorority to disband

At an official meeting on Nov. 9, Alpha Sigma Tau announced they would no longer be an active 
social sorority on campus. The local chapter of Alpha Sigma Tau requested alumna status and 
they were granted their request on Oct. 10.

Ricki Trosen, Alpha Sigma Tau adviser, said the chapter requested alumna status because of the 
negative comments, misconceptions and old images of the sorority. These problems affected 
their ability to attract new members despite high academic status, national awards and 
leadership in the Greek community.

"It's a shame because it's a result of stereotyping," Joe Bantz, Interfraternity Council assistant 
adviser, said. "People began stereotyping Alpha Sigma Tau, and even as they were doing 
everything possible to break that stereotype, people kept picturing that, and it would influence 
people going through rush. It was a cycle," Bantz said. "It shows us as Greeks that we need to be 
careful about what we stereotype and what sort of stereotyping we do."

The Panhellenic Council faced changes due to the sorority's decision. Karen Walker, Alpha Sigma 
Tau member, was Panhellenic president at the time but because of the change was no longer 
eligible for the position. She remained president until elections in Spring 89.

Because of the Alpha Tau's decision, changes were planned for Brewer Hall. The Alpha Sigma 
Tau chapter room would be converted to a study lounge and their insignia taken from the walls.

Only four national and one local sorority remained on campus. Greeks considered the addition 
of another national sorority in the future but did not take immediate action.

Greeks awarded A new order

Omega is the last letter of the Greek alphabet, but Omega honored the beginning of a changing 
attitude toward social Greek organizations on campus.

The Order of Omega, an honorary national organization, recognized social Greeks for qualities of 
character, scholarship, and leadership.

"The primary purpose was to recognize the best among social Greeks across the country," 
Vonnie Nichols, assistant dean of colleges, said. "It gave recognition to the top three percent of 
social Greeks." 

"The criteria to be a member were that you have to be involved," junior Jeanne White, 
president, said. "It's real integrated. You have to become involved in the campus and the 
community."

Members served as role models for the Greek society. They served as a resource group for 
developing programs, Nichols said.

"It gives the social Greeks something to strive for," senior Trish Cope, treasurer, said.

The organization recognized the top three percent of the social Greek population on campus. 
Each Greek organization could nominate one member and could then nominate one person for 
each additional twenty members.

"People do consider it a real honor," Cope said.

The charter members hoped they could plan the Greek Development Conference in 1989. The 
Greek Life Office organized the 1988 conference.

Order of Omega members also wanted to establish a workshop for the spring semester aimed at 
the Greek pledge classes. The workshop would be targeted toward Greek unity.

White of Sigma Sigma Sigma social sorority wrote to the national organization to begin a local 
chapter in 1987. In the spring of 1988, faculty chose the charter pledge class.

After two pledge seasons, Order of Omega had eleven members. As Greeks learned about the 
organization, members demonstrated that Omega may be the last letter of the Greek alphabet 
but became the first organization of its kind at Northeast.

INSTRUCTIONS NOT INCLUDED

Questions without answers permeated every aspect of our lives. We started from scratch and 
created residential colleges, decided not to build a multipurpose building and constructed an 
elevator for Baldwin Hall.

Trees invaded the Quiet Lounge, the parking lot spaces shrank, and the Oz opened its doors to 
the Strippendales but closed its doors in January.

The bits and pieces combined and 1989 developed without instructions. The numbers added up 
and a Republican still lived on Pennsylvania Avenue. January 31 brought 70 degree weather and 
February 1 brought a subzero wind chill.

1989 brought a happy birthday for Mickey Mouse (60 years) and goodbyes for Louis L'Amour 
and Billy Carter. The red lights on the square still flashed from 5:30 p.m. until 7:30 a.m. but 
other events did not fit a definite time period.

365 days jumbled together as individual experiences shaped the year. From the first step into a 
bare residence hall room (or was it a residential college?) to a frantic job search after graduation  
the events of 1989 colored the year as we found - Instructions Not Included.

Northeast Missouri Triathlon, Entrants swam, biked and ran at Thousand Hills State Park

While the campus sleeps, the sun rises over Stokes Stadium on a cold November morning. The 
stadium's name derived from a former groundskeeper.

A witch and a pumpkin fit the atmosphere as Kim Haggard, jr., and Becky Albertson, sr., stroll in 
the homecoming parade. Blue Key sponsored the hour-long display of school spirit down 
Franklin Street.
