Into the Flow... MSU RED CEDAR LOG 1986 FOUNDED IN 1855 as Michigan Agricultural College, MAC soon became the prototype for the nation's 68 land grant col­ leges.

Waves of Commotion Similar to the geography of the Red Cedar River that traverses the parklike campus of MSU, the events of the 1985-86 year traveled in much the same flow. When MSU's 16th president, Cecil Mackey, offered his resignation February 14, 1985, a spring of attention erupted which was to carry the university through a flow of media attention until the following December. Mackey told the press that some members of the Board of Trustees had lost confidence in him and he felt he should resign. Next, in the midst of the rocky currents of anti-apartheid sit-ins and demonstrations at col­ lege campuses across the United States, another type of controversy bubbled. MSU, the first major university to divest its funds from South Africa, was discovered to have invested $606,639 during the month of February into apartheid-supporting assets. Scandal seeped across the pages of the State News as the campus daily reported that MSU had violated both its own policy and state law by investing monies in Revlon, Inc., Smith Inter­ national, Inc. and Phillips Petroleum. MSU quickly liquidated the stock and netted a $35,903 profit from the illegal shares of Phillips Petroleum. INTO THE Flow Photo by Bonnie Zell "The investments were definitely an error by one of our investors," said Nancy Elliot-Craig, MSU director of in­ vestments and trusts. In the late spring, the 99-year-old Red Cedar Log year­ book was nearly extinguished by an undertow of apathy. On May 30, 1985, the student governing board, Asso­ ciated Students of MSU, approved a zero budget for the book, executive director Rocky Beckett said. Then on June 27 ASMSU voted to abolish the RCL.

Waves of Commotion "The yearbook has had a long history of losing money and ASMSU was no longer willing to take on the financial responsibilities,” Beckett said. The flow of the year built momentum as it rushed through rapids and rough water. By July, attention had turned to the new president of MSU, John DiBiaggio. A constant source of media atten­ tion, DiBiaggio encountered his first snag July 29th when he refused to comply with Gov. James Blanchard's mandate ordering Michigan's public universities to freeze in-state tuition in trade for increased state aid. INTO THE Flow On July 31, the president agreed to Blan­ chard's demands to freeze tuition or lose MSU's $206 million in state aid. However, a few days later the Board of Trustees voted to hike tuition for non-Michigan residents and graduate stu­ dents in order to take up the slack. In October, another crisis was nearing the boiling point. The new chief executive drew strong criticism from members of MSU's wom­ en's studies department and other feminist advo­ cates after his appearance in a calendar put out by the MSU Motion pom pon squad. DiBiaggio and other male faculty members, in­ cluding Spartan football head coach George Perles and basketball head coach Jud Heathcoat made national waves when they posed with the swimsuit-clad dance team for the calendar. DiBiaggio later called the incident a "mistake” but the controversy made the pages of People Magazine in De­ cember. The MSU Marching Band also got into the flow of con­ troversy when the band was offered a spot in a major motion picture.

But in fact, the year's flow was more often buoyed by its positive undercurrents. Undergraduate enrollment increased by 1.9 percent, and although out-of-state tuition rose 12.4 percent, total enrollment was up. October 24-26 brought a current of excitement to the Wharton Center, as a broadway touring company per­ formed the season's biggest box office attraction, "42nd Street". And for the first time in four years the campus underwent major expansions. "16.5 million was spent on major capital improvements," associate University architect Norm Schleif said. An indoor tennis facility, an indoor football practice field, soil science building and additions to the plant and biology research building ac­ counted for the 408,200 square feet of expan­ sion. Spartan Stadium an the Kellogg Center also re­ ceived $2.6 million facelifts. Groundbreaking worth $47.5 million put in motion construction work on the Jack Breslin Stu­ dent Events Center, an East campus IM building and additions to the packaging laboratory. "There was a substantial drought in capital construction projects," Schleif said. By December the current of media attention had drifted to a calm, with just a few ripples. President DiBiaggio was pleasantly accessible to students and the community. The flood of negative publicity had subsided surrounding the various waves of the year, and had all but evaporated. — Janis Matheson INTO THE Flow photo by Sensations GO STATE GO The Football team pre­ pares to foil an at­ tempted field goal by Minnesota.

Life Preservers "My first impression of MSU was that it was huge. But once I moved into Campbell Hall, met some new people and started to get into my classes, I felt more organized and a part of things," said Mike Murphy, an engineering freshman. Like Murphy, most students dove into college life head­ first. Besides the all-important GPA, bills and job responsibili­ ties, students managed to keep afloat socially too. For most, weekends began on Thursday nights. Favorite East Lansing hot spots included America's Cup, B'zar, Sensations, Rick's and Mac's Bar, which served as life preservers to busy students. INSIDE Life Some students literally got into the flow by 16 taking advantage of hot tub spas. "Hottubbing was a great date alternative," said Stacy Schatz, journalism junior. Activities such as Broadway plays, ballets and concerts carried students into the flow of cultural life. "42nd Street" sold out nearly every show at the Wharton Center October 24-26. Others were caught up in a wave of sports- related activities and events. Fuzzy navels, body passing and The Wave were favorite spectator activities at sporting events. Homecoming 1985 had a 50's flair with its theme, MSU Re­ flections 30 The year brought many top per­ formers including Chuck Mangione Other students, however, preferred to stay out of the mainstream. "Walking outside, down Grand River, just taking in the scenery is how I like to spend my free time," said Don Hargraves, a psychology sophomore. — Janis Matheson photo by Bill Mitchum Homes away from home What happens when over 41,000 people flock to the same place at the same time? From Sept. 20 through Sept. 26, anyone traveling through East Lansing and Michigan State's campus learned the answer to that question the hard way. Along with suitcases and crates filled with personal belongings, ea­ ger students and parents also brought traffic jams and a shortage of parking places to the area. "I was so anxious to come back to school," communications junior Tania Light said. "But once I drove onto campus I got so frustrated that I had to park across the street from Wonders (Hall) and wait for the crowds to clear out before I started moving my stuff in." For approximately 6,684 incoming freshmen, an increase of 2.3 percent from 1984, and transfer stu­ dents, MSU was a totally new ex­ perience. Most had visited the campus during five transfer student and 17 freshmen summer orienta­ tion programs held June 24 through August 22, but still had no idea what to expect. It was easy to spot newcomers YOU HAUL. Students unload trunks and trailers of furniture and other personal belongings outside of McDonel Hall on the first day of Welcome Week, September 18. on campus during the first few days of Welcome Week. Armed with maps and donning the puzzled looks of tourists in a foreign land, most set out to familiarize themselv­ es with the campus and try to locate buildings for classes. "On my first day here I was so confused," dietietics freshman Janet DeGroat said. "Even though I had my map of campus with me, I still had to ask a couple of people for directions. The funniest thing was I went jogging and ended over by Hubbard Hall. I didn't know how to get home (to Gilchrist Hall)!" However, for veteran upperclass­ men students, finding their way around campus was a piece of cake. "The campus is really easy after you've been around here for a cou­ ple of years," child development ju­ nior Lisa Wilson said. "Seeing the freshmen walking around campus with their maps and looking lost brought back memories." In between attending Welcome Week activities such as floor mixers, ice cream socials and week-long library tours, all students attended registration at the Intramural Sports Buildings. Freshmen and transfer students who attended summer orientation programs registered in the Women's IM on West Circle Drive while upperclass students registered in the IM West. Registration was no Hassle for those who arrived at their sched­ uled time. However, for those who were late or the unlucky few who had incomplete schedules it was the pits — literally. The class card arena, "the pit" as it was commonly known to stu­ dents, frustrated most people with long lines, closed sections and prac­ tically no choices. "The pit was one of my worst ex­ periences at Michigan State," crop and soil sciences sophomore Pete Elliot said. "Finding the right class to fit my schedule and requirements was a challenge, but I finally did it. I walked out of there saying 'what a relief'!" As Welcome Week drew to a close and fall term classes began on Sept. 26, on-campus residents braced themselves for nine months in . . . continued WHO'S NEXT?

Once the boxes and crates were unloaded from the station wagons and trailers, and mom and dad had headed for home, students were faced with an entirely new dilemma: How could a 12 foot by 12 foot cubicle with bare walls, barren floors, two desks, and two bunk beds be transformed into a home away from home? Most students donned their interi­ or decorator hats and, with checkbooks clenched firmly in their hands, headed for stores on Grand River Avenue which boasted a hearty supply of posters and other novelties to create a pseudo-home. "My roommate and I built a loft for more floor space on the very first weekend," communications senior Jill Berry said. "After we put up posters, bought some plants, and rearranged the furniture the room was much more comfortable for us." With 27 residence halls on campus to choose from, students were offered a choice of living ar­ rangements: suites with adjoining bathrooms or double rooms with community bathrooms. "Living in Wonders Hall was the greatest!" marketing junior Diane Maytum said. "(However,) some­ times it's a hassle in the morning when everyone has 9:10 a.m. class­ es and four people run for the bath­ room and shower at the same time." make the situation more bearable, Maytum added. "At first I didn't really like living in one small room," no preference freshman Mary Neydon, a Yakeley Hall resident, said, "But, I adjusted very well. I used to think I wanted to live in an apartment next year. Now, I want to live in the dorms again and meet some new people." For many on-campus residents, living in the residence halls also meant sharing one restroom with fif­ ty or more people for the entire year. "At first I didn't think I was going to like the community bathrooms," pre-law freshman Patti Sarb said. "But, they've turned out to be pret­ ty convenient because we never have to clean our bathroom. I also didn't think I was going to like hav­ ing to run down the hall every time I needed to use the bathroom, but it is really not that bad." Aside from providing a roof over students' heads and someplace to sleep and study, the residence halls offered a variety of extra benefits for most everyone. "I like living in the dorms because I enjoy having a sister floor to asso­ ciate with," said Freeman Gunnell, a hotel, restaurant and institutional management freshman. "People can do a whole bunch of things togeth­ er. By planning activities as a floor, it seems as though you're part of one big family. A lot of friendships develop this way." In such cramped living quarters tensions sometimes arose, but hav­ ing a friendly relationship with roommates and suitemates helped "I chose to live in the residence halls for three years because every year you meet new people and make a lot of new friends," com­ puter science junior Chris Vanciu said. "The dorms are also conducive for studying, but I still have time for parties or other activities. There is always something going on!" Living in the residence halls also gave students the opportunity to eat their meals in the cafeteria. Al­ though many students regarded cafeteria food as quick and easy when there was a rush between classes, others said that cafeteria food was a major downfall to resi­ dence hall life. "The food is really bad," HRI freshman Hector Cho said. "It has no retaining power. It's like junkfood —not satisfying at all. Another thing is the cooks use too much cheese. Everything is made with cheese!" "As far as campus food goes, the food in Brody complex is the best," math senior Mark O'Brien said. "Since the bakery is in Brody, the desserts are the freshest and, I don't know why, but the milk is the coldest to me." Residence halls offered MSU stu­ dents a variety of living options: qui­ et or nonquiet floors, co-ed halls by floor or by suites as in Case Hall, and an overabundance of programs such as aerobic exercises, alcohol awareness speeches and video movies which were shown in the T.V. lounges of many halls. How­ ever, those students who wanted to get away from it all and really ex­ perience independence as a college student were offered a variety of options through . . . continued DISHPAN MAN.

After one or two years of living in the residence halls and enduring the noise, parties or cramped living conditions so many students complained of, many students made the "break" from campus and rented apartments or houses in and around East Lansing. "Living in the dorms was a lot of fun for a while," business law senior Rodney Kurzawa said. "But, after two years I felt like I was living in a box. A dorm room just doesn't have space for two people and all of per­ sonal belongings. Besides, living in an apartment I get to have my own bedroom." A majority of students moved off campus in order to escape the noise and lack of privacy they felt were common in the residence halls. "I got fed up with all of the noise and people running up and down the halls at all hours of the night," horticulture senior Brad Fogg said. "The walls were paper thin so you could hear everything that was go­ ing on in the next-door neighbors' rooms loud and clear. Living in an apartment is a lot more like home and you get a lot more privacy." Probably the single most popular praise for off-campus living was the opportunity to cook meals as an al­ ternative to eating the food in the cafeterias. "The food was always pretty bad when I lived in the residence halls and had to eat every day in the cafeteria," journalism senior Marilyn Morrison said. "I think I ate much better after I moved off campus because I was able to plan and cook my own meals. The food tasted much better, and at least I knew what I was eating." However, for many off-campus residents local fast-food restaurants became the frequent stop for a quick, easy, and best of all, a cheap meal. "A lot of the time I didn't have a chance to go grocery shopping or fix myself a big meal," advertising junior Pat Farrell said. "In between my job and classes I would drive in to McDonald's or Burger King and grab a bite to eat. My roommates and I also ordered a lot of pizza! Eating out may have cost more money, but it was fast and we didn't have to do dishes afterwards." Along with the freedom and privacy of living off campus also came greater responsibilities in terms of housework and paying the bills on time. "The thing I disliked most about living in an apartment was doing dishes," Fogg said. "My roommates and I would let them build up for days. Finally, after we ran out of dishes and the dirty ones were piled up onto the counter, someone would break down and wash them. Sometimes they got pretty disgusting." "For pretty close to a term no one even attempted to clean out the bathroom," Morrison said. "It got pretty bad in there. After we cleaned that mess up we never let it get that bad again!" No matter how good or bad the situation of living off campus was, most students who decided to make the move agreed that they enjoyed the experience. Overdue utility bills, late rent checks and an overabun­ dance of dirty dishes were just another variation of life at MSU. — Michael llich LEFTOVERS. In the mad rush to make it to class on time, many off-campus residents left messes on the kitchen table which could be cleaned later. Such as this typical kitchen at a house on Spartan Street.

Photo by MSU News Bureau In the 50's tradition Many of us have heard mom and dad tell stories of their college days back in the 1950s when cruising the gut was the cool thing to do, sub­ marine races were the place to end the perfect date and Elvis was the King of rock 'n' roll. But, during homecoming week, Oct. 14-19, 1985, MSU students were offered the chance to actually re-live those memories complete with leather jackets, poodle skirts and saddle shoes. On Thursday, students who dined in residence hall cafeterias were treated to a drive-in menu complete with cheeseburgers, french fries, chicken-in-a-basket and other '50's munchies. Then, after their meal, students could try their hand at cre­ ating tasty sodas at old-fashioned soda fountains. Many halls across campus also sponsored hoola-hoop contests, sock hops and fashion shows featur­ ing clothing styles straight from the 1950s. Although clothing styles and trends may have changed throughout MSU's history, many things have held true and become traditions — especially during home- coming week. For example, Friday was green and white day and more than the usual number of Spartans sported their green "GO STATE" sweatshirts and other green and white clothing across campus. Another tradition which was carried on was the annual light show put on by the residents of Hubbard Hall. While some residents pulled their shades down, others left them up in order to spell out the message "GO MSU." "My roommate and I were one of the rooms that pulled our shades down, so when the lights turned on the 'GO MSU' showed up," elementary education freshman Lisa Rust said. "It really looked neat. It was awesome!" The annual pep rally, bonfire, and parade were held on Friday, Oct. 18, in the drizzling rain. But, that did not completely dampen Spartan spirit. Colorful floats constructed by fraternities and sororities flowed along the parade route down Ab­ bott Entrance and through the cen­ ter of campus pulled by truckloads of rowdy MSU students. The Student Foundation spon­ sored the bonfire and pep rally which were held on Case Field. Guest speakers included Moses Turner, vice president of student affairs and MSU President John DiBiaggio. As tradition dictated, the march­ ing band played the fight song while the cheerleaders led the crowd in singing. Then master of ceremonies WVIC disc jockey Rich Michaels, an­ nounced the homecoming king and queen Jeff Stevens and Angela Lovasco. Other members of the homecoming court included: Jenni­ fer Johnson, Kim Cunningham, Jeff Meleski, Jay Beauchamp, Mark Stevens, Marianne Merrick, Carolyn Ellison and Rocky Beckett. Another tradition that was carried on was the green and white lunch­ eon and dinner-dance which were held on Friday night in the Big Ten Centennial Room at the Kellogg Center. The annual event was hosted by the Alumni Association for alumni and friends. Cheerlead­ ers, the homecoming king and queen, and head football coach George Perles each gave a short speech. The only setback to a perfect week came when the Fighting lllini from Illinois defeated the Spartans 30-17 in front of a crowd of 76,438 people. During halftime, the theme MSU Reflections played a major role when the 1965 Big Ten and National Champion Football Team members Bubba Smith, Gene Washington and Fred Stavey were reunited on the field. After homecoming was over and the University returned to life in the 1980's, comments could still be heard on what a success the entire week was. "I thought things went very well as far as the plans and theme were concerned," homecoming chairman Curtis Jablonski said. "The theme re­ flected the University and was based on the University. That was our goal —to bring homecoming back to the University." — Diane Havens 1985 HOMECOMING COURT.

Journalism freshman Renee Johnson from Sycamore, Illinois is right at home in Michigan as she reads a book for her American Thought and Lan­ guage course. Programs lure students from coast to coast They came from all over. From the West Coast, East Coast and the North and South, students traveled great distances to attend MSU. But, aside from the fact that MSU is the premiere land-grant university in the nation, as well as having the largest residence hall system and THE most beautiful college campus, what prompted out-of-state stu­ dents to choose MSU? "We have a variety of excellent academic programs," said William Turner, MSU director of admissions and scholarships. "We teach so many things (at MSU) — specialized things." A number of academic programs related to the business school such as hotel, restaurant and institutional management, marketing and accounting have national reputations that attract interested students, Turner said. Agricultural and engineering pro­ grams at MSU also attract interested students, Turner said. "In a nutshell, the academic pro­ grams are a strong motivating force behind students choosing to come to MSU," he added. Although academics was one of the most important reasons out-of- state students chose to attend MSU, other factors also influenced their decisions. "A lot of people from Hawaii go to colleges on the West Coast," said Stacie Chang, an advertising senior from Honolulu. "I wanted to go someplace different. I also wanted to go someplace where there was snow. I love snow —I just don't like the cold." Being so far away from home Chang said she enjoyed the oppor­ tunity to travel the eastern part of the United States. "I got the chance to see Michi­ gan, Florida and even the East Coast," Chang said. "That's some­ thing I never would have had the chance to do if I stayed in Hawaii." Parents who were alumni also played a role in deciding where their children would attend college. "My parents were alumni and ever since I was a little girl they brought me to football games and other events," said Michele Noble, a journalism junior from Connecticut. "They showed me all of the places they went while they were dating, so MSU had a sentimental meaning to me. I never really considered another school." — Michael llich UP WITH MSU.

Rivalries—when green and blue clash "A different kind of rivalry." It is the most popular description of the feelings that exist between MSU and U-M. Officials from both schools insist­ ed that the universities do not compete, they cooperate. Universi­ ty of Michigan and Michigan State University supposedly exist in a state of mutual respect and regard each other very highly. "We have much more in com­ mon than not," U-M President Har­ old Shapiro said. "My dominant feeling is not one of rivalry but of cooperation. It's a friendly and productive rivalry." John DiBiaggio, a U-M master's student turned MSU president, agreed. He called the rivalry "elec­ tric" but added, "I think the two schools can live together in harmony and in fact support each other." Although DiBiaggio called the U- M/MSU football game "one of the biggest weekends of the year for the state," both he and Shapiro emphasized that much of the "rivalry" between the two Universi­ ties occurs only on the field, court and rink." But there, it is intense. The 31-0 drubbing the Spartans took at U-M's hands was the low point of an otherwise successful football season. MSU's hockey team split with the Wolverines successful­ ly before racing U-M in the playoffs, but the Spartans got some revenge in basketball season, as MSU romped over the top-ten rated Wolverines twice —90-79 in Jension and 74-59 in Ann Arbor —as the Spartans rolled to their second con­ secutive NCAA tournament bid. The athletic rivalry, it seems, has always been heated. In 1949, when MSU was invited to apply for membership in the Big Ten confer­ ence, only one university registered opposition — U-M. MSU got even in 1973 when U-M tied Ohio State for the Big Ten lead. The conference's athletic directors had to vote to determine which school would go to the Rose Bowl. MSU cast the deciding vote —for Ohio State. But now it appears early antagonism has been replaced by friendly competition. Many credit MSU coach George Perles with im­ proving relations through this policy of supporting the other school un­ less pitted against them on the field. "Rivalry is still there, and the teams play hard against each other," said Ann Arbor Police captain Kenneth Klinge. "But (Perles) now had good rapport with other coaches. He keeps things friendly off the field." Off the field, the most obvious rivalry comes when the schools compete for potential students. But even here, the two schools main­ taining direct competition is not part of the program. "I don't think we really compete head-to-head with each other," said Lance Erikson, associate director of U-M admissions. "We don't try to draw comparisons between MSU and U-M. That could develop into deceit and that wouldn't do the schools any good and it wouldn't do the students any good. We en­ courage students to take a look at both schools." William Turner, MSU director of admissions, agreed. "Both are great universities," Turner said. "Any thinking person at U-M will tell you they respect MSU. And any thinking person here will tell you they respect U-M." Turner said having two such pres­ tigious schools in the same state is incredibly beneficial to Michigan. "We have two outstanding uni­ versities that attract great minds and great research," Turner said. "The citizens of Michigan have made a really important investment in hav­ ing two outstanding universities in the same state. And it's paid off many times over." One of the leading benefits, however, still remains one of the most colorful and exciting rivalries in college sports today. When MSU and U-M square off anywhere, emotions run high. Perles summed up what may be the prevailing attitude concerning the U-M/MSU rivalry. "This is a battle of the bands, a battle of the alumni, a battle of the students and of two teams," he said. "It's a great thing and it's very healthy for the state of Michigan." It's a different kind of rivalry. — Kevin Roberts M-GO BLOW.

LaVern Pennington Patrick O'Brien Reviving the 60's: Activism comeback It wasn't like the 1960's, but some MSU students in 1985 had some­ thing in common with their radical counterparts of 20 years ago. Activ­ ism on issues such as South African apartheid, aid to contra rebels in Nicaragua or the nuclear freeze mo­ tivated a limited number of MSU students to get involved in polital is­ sues. One of the most vocal groups on campus was the MSU Southern African Liberation Committee, which protested MSU Foundation Investment in South Africa. The group tried to promote better awareness of apartheid, which is the white minority's oppression of South Africa's black majority. SALC president Deb Miller, who is an international relations senior said she got interested in anti-apartheid issues after reading a Time magazine article about South Africa in 1984. "I was appalled," Miller said. "What got me interested is that I felt no one was interested in the is­ sues. There was such an apathetic mood —I couldn't accept it." Instead, she tried to peak student interest in the issue. SALC regularly submitted viewpoints in The State News and promoted several rallies and marches to encourage divestment from South Africa. Another heated issue was the cri­ sis in Nicaragua and aid to the contra rebels. SHOUTING OUT. Protesting MSU Founda­ tion's investment in corporations with South African interests, students marched at the Hannah Administration building. An April 15 rally to protest U.S. in­ volvement in Nicaragua was orga­ nized by Karrie Potter, director of MSU's Peace Center. Potter played the guitar and sang peace songs during the rally near the Beaumont Tower. Nuclear issues were the focus of two other campus organizations - Students Acting for the Future of the Earth and Greenpeace. SAFE members staged mock nuclear holocausts monthly by Beaumont Tower, simulating the death that could result from nuclear war. Issues abounded at MSU, whether it was to save the Women's Lounge in the Union, to stop the moped ban or to protest campus showings of X-rated films. Groups such as the MSU Democrats and Republicans were also more visible in 1985. The year reminded us that the values of an earlier time were not forgotten. Students got involved in many ways, including the more than 50 local religious affiliations and groups. A State News survey of nearly 400 students showed that a large portion of the MSU community affiliated with a particular denomina­ tion. All in all, MSU students tried to battle political and moral apathy on the home front by taking part in a number of activities that reaffirmed MSU's dedication to values. -Barb Isaacs Patrick O'Brien UP IN ARMS.

A hot time in the hot tub Another reason to hate California. Hot tubbing, a trend that has been popular in the West for several years, has finally hit East Lansing. "It's definitely increased in popu­ larity this past year," said Donna Matelske, Manager of The Hot House, 15810 N. East St. Students make up about 40 percent of the clientele for local spas, Matelske said. Students were flocking to local spas for a variety of reasons. "People use the tubs for dates, parties, bad backs ... ," said John Russel, owner of Clearwater Spa, 138 Linden St. "Hot tubbing is a good clean sport," he added. Many students found hot tubbing an alternative to the typical date. "It's so relaxing, something differ­ ent than grabbing a burger or going to a movie," journalism junior Stacy Schatz said. "I've only been twice, but hot tubbing is a fun date alterna­ tive." "It makes a super romantic date," elementary education freshman Amy Hale said. Area spas offered both indoor and outdoor tubs with a variety of design motifs, ranging from the Spar­ tan Spirit room at the Clearwater Spa to the VIP Suite at The Hot House. Schatz enjoyed the "beach room" with an outdoor tub at Clearwater Spa. "It was nice because it doesn't get as hot outside, the steam escapes," she said. "Besides, on a starry night it's neater to be outside than surrounded by wooden walls." Although hot tub dates were popular, many students hot tubbed as a social activity. "After playing basketball or frisbee it's relaxing to go sit in a hot tub and drink a few beers," journalism senior Tom Watts said. "I don't know if it's a new trend, hot tubbing has always been popular with me." — Janis Matheson DATE ALTERNATIVE. For Stacy Schatz, journalism junior and a friend, hot tubbing was relaxing. RELAX.

Frustration—getting from here to there Getting there was half the battle. For many students, getting around Michigan State University's 2,100 acre campus was nothing short of a hassle. Students exercised every possible option to cover the 33 miles of roadway that paved one of the country's largest campuses. Walking was the most common transportation resource because it was free and often faster than hunting for a parking space or waiting at the bus stop. "The bus costs money and often takes longer than walking, but if you walk fast you can make it across campus in 20 minutes and that's not long at all," Brenda Dittis, a senior majoring in teacher education said. "It gives me time to think, does not take any gas and is a great form of exercise," Dittis said. "Waiting for the bus was frustrat­ ing, especially during the winter," Margaret Bennett, elementary edu­ cation sophomore said. "It seemed like whenever I wanted to take the bus I would end up waiting at the stop in the freezing cold for 20 minutes, then the bus would finally come but it would be full so the driver would not stop." Sometimes students decided skip­ ping class was better than braving the elements. "I always got up in the morning with good intentions," Janet DeGroat, dietetics freshman said. "I got up, took a shower and went down to the cafeteria for breakfast, but then I looked out the window and when it was really nasty out I went right back to my room," DeGroat said. "Once during winter term I got all ready for class, went outside and didn't make it down the front steps of Gilchrist before deciding a one hour class wasn't worth the walk," Jeanne McPheron, a nursing sopho­ more said. For students who did choose the bus system, eight buses ran continu­ ously during the week between 7:30 a.m. and 11:00 p.m. Tickets cost 50 cents per ride or $24 fall and spring terms and $30 winter term. During the winter term, the prime bus season, the bus system was transporting 10,500 riders daily, Ja­ net Larkin, supervisor of the MSU bus system said. — Janis Matheson BUS BOY. Many students purchased winter term campus bus passes for $30 instead of paying 50 cents for each single ride. RACK 'EM UP. A montage of bicycles were left behind Wells Hall during 12:40 classes.

Photo by Janine Smith THE YEAR OF THE SPREE With mopeds darting in and out of traffic and running down people on trails, the MSU Department of Public Safety called for a ban of the vehicles on campus which began spring term. ''Actually mopeds have never been allowed on campus," said Capt. Andrew McEntee, assistant to the director of public safety. A few years ago, DPS chose not to enforce the section of the traffic code which prohibits driving mopeds on campus, but decided to rescind that non­ enforcement policy because of numerous complaints, McEntee explained. The traffic commission received many complaints from people who had been run down by mopeds while walking on campus sidewalks. McEntee said, "Moped riders do not know how to handle a privi­ lege. With the congestion on campus, which is only two miles wide by less than a mile deep, we do not have room for that kind of luxury." "Mopeds cause numerous accidents, but as in the case of bikes, many went unreported," he said. McEntee compared the danger surrounding mopeds with that of motorcycles. "A moped is a motorcycle," McEntee said. "Even the state legislature is taking a hard look at their safe­ ty." DPS also studied the issue of moped parking. By spring term, the department determined whether mopeds should be parked in bike racks or as other motorized vehicles in parking spots. —Jane Stamm Photo by LaVern Pennington Photo by Janine Smith SNOWPLOW?

Photos by LaVern Pennington Paying with plastic The life of a college student. Just paid tuition, bought text books, wrote a check for the rent and forked over the remaining balance in the checking account for groceries and miscellaneous ex­ penses. A new pair of jeans, or a night on the town would have been nice but you are broke — penniless. For many MSU students cash was no problem. Credit cards eased fi­ nancial burdens and made life at col­ lege a little bit easier. The criteria for students to receive a credit card were very lenient, said Beverly Triplett, credit promotions manager for Hudson's. "Students can get a charge plate very easily," she said. "Hudson's is an excellent credit reference and enables them to establish a credit history. This would make it easier for them to receive more credit in the future." To receive a credit card students were usually required to be at least 18 years old, a college student and have some source of income —par­ ents, part-time job, scholarship or trust fund —and either a checking or savings account. The beginning line of credit for stu­ dents at Hudson's was $200, Triplett said. In addition to department stores, students were also targeted with ap­ plications from larger national credit companies such as VISA, MasterCard and various gasoline corporations. Most credit applications were made to sound very simplistic re­ quiring minimal information and requesting the applicant to "just sign your name below and receive your card in 4 to 6 weeks." No strings at­ tached. "When I applied for my VISA card the only thing I had to do was sign on the dotted line and return the card — they even paid the postage," said journalism junior Barbara Isaacs. "It sure comes in handy. I've bought everything from clothes and shoes to dinner and groceries on my VISA." "The only bad thing about having a charge card is that it's real easy to go overboard," she added. Isaacs said that she also had charge cards from Hudson's, Jacobson's, Sears and J.C. Penney's. "I figured why not apply and es­ tablish a credit history while I'm a college student and they're so easy to get," she said. Although credit cards came in handy when students were short on money, they did have some down­ falls. Engineering arts sophomore Dave Robb said he received his credit cards after he opened up a bank account and enjoyed their convenience — until his cards were stolen. "Credit cards became really convenient because I didn't have to carry cash around and I could order things by phone," Robb said. "After they were stolen I really felt the loss of that convenience for about three weeks until they were replaced." — Michael llich PLASTIC PARADISE. Students were the tar­ get of many major credit card companies, receiving one or more applications per week. PLASTIC PAYMENT.

Cathy Wydner and Jim Walton dazzle during a Wharton Center perfor­ mance of 42nd street. The show has won prizes both on Broadway and in Great Britain, boasting broken box office records across the country. Culture on stage What costs between next to nothing and is a great deal of fun and educational? It was all of the fine arts and cultural activities on and off Michigan State's campus. In one night, students could go to Brody Complex's Lafayette Square and dine on specially prepared cuisine plus go to a Broadway show at the Wharton Center for Performing Arts on campus for un­ der $25. "Students like to consider time and cost when they go out," Kenneth Beechler, Executive Direc­ tor of the Wharton Center, said. "Because of this we have created RUSH tickets for them." Students presenting their MSU ID could obtain their tickets between 4-5 p.m. only on the day of the per­ formance. "This combines time and cost since it is the day of the perfor­ mance and tickets are only $5," Beechler said. "You can't go to a movie for much less." Besides offering discount prices to students, the Wharton Center also provided jobs to students as student ushers. Approximately 120-130 stu­ dents belonged to the usher corps. "We always try to accommodate students," Beechler commented. "If a student needs a job, we will find something for him to do." The year's most successful perfor­ mance was the Broadway produc­ tion "42nd Street," selling out two of the four shows. If this wasn't satisfying, students could go to MSU's Museum to see exhibits from great dinosaurs' skele­ tons to life-like displays of various animals in their natural dwellings for no cost. Kresge Art Center on campus housed many MSU's students works. In addition, there were many great pieces of art. Leslie Hall, a senior in interior de­ sign, said, "People don't realize there are other things besides the students' works." She added that people could browse and see places and monuments from around the world. "Students in studio art classes go and view the pictures made from slides," Hall continues. "They are really interesting." Off campus there were several cultural events available to students. The Impression 5 Museum in Lansing cost a minimal amount of money for students, and had more than 200 intriguing displays that challenged their physical and mental abilities. Students could travel through time by feeling their way through Michigan's past in their Time/Touch Tunnel. Another resource available to MSU's students was at the Boars- Head Theater: Michigan Public Thea­ ter. Co-founded by John Peakes and Richard Thomsen in 1966 as a fam­ ily-run summer stock theater with a decidedly adventuresome bent, it has evolved to its current stature as a nationally-acclaimed professional theater and major midwest cultural attraction. This year BoarsHead celebrated its 20 years of memorable entertain­ ment with a season of comedies, classics, and world premieres. To kick off this celebration, BoarsHead presented Winterfare '86 from January 15 through February 23. A cadre of alumni playwrights re­ turned to BoarsHead to perform in this six-week festival of new plays, staged readings, and special events. BoarsHead was easily accessible by Cata bus as was Impression 5 Museum. After a show at the theater or a day at a museum, students could go to a popular restaurant, The Pantree, in East Lansing. It offered a variety of cuisine from hamburgers to "tummy buster" sundaes to a full steak dinner complete with baked potatoes and wine. As Ken Beechler said about the Wharton Center, "Students have to have a total experience of the place" so too must they have a total experience of all the arts available to them in the East Lansing/Lansing area. — Susan Buick TRIBAL DANCE.

Photos by Wharton Center From Jazz Greats to Soul Legends The rock did not roll into the Lansing area in 1985, but the year was not a total loss. With three concerts cancelled — Foreigner, Jean-Luc Ponty, and John Cougar Mellancamp — the Michigan State University concert calendar seemed disappointing. But MSU wasn't the only area in a concert stalemate. Lansing held no major rock con­ certs, and often the best shows were out of town. Some of the hard-to-top concerts held out of town included Bruce Springsteen's early September show at the Pontiac Silverdome, R.E.M.'s August show at the Fox Theatre in Detroit and the Thompson Twins' November show at Cobo Hall in Detroit. The shows that did however ap­ pear on campus and in the Lansing area were diverse and satisfied al­ most every musical taste. The June 1st appearance of the Violent Femmes kept fans dancing song after song. Their combination of garage band simplicity mixed with elements of the '80s new music was a success with the fans at the MSU Auditorium. "The Violent Femmes put on an energetic, crowd-pleasing perfor­ mance with their unusual lyrics and unique folk/punk-sounding music," said Kim Jenney, a senior studying Interior Design. The stylish appeal of New Edition made their May 8 showing at the auditorium well worth the $13.50 ticket price. According to one concert goer, the show had a lot of flash and plenty of slick moves. "Once the show started, I never sat down. They were a lot different than I thought they were going to be," said Wendy Stevens, a senior in journalism. "They reminded me a lot of the young Jackson Five with their dancing and the way they communicate with the audience." May 14th the annual outdoor concert sponsored by the MSU Resi­ dence Hall Association (RHA), fea­ tured the Bus Boys. The band played on Munn Field to an audi­ ence of about 7,000 people, said Dave Nathan, the business manager for RHA. "It probably was the best concert in quite a few years that RHA has put on in terms of quality of the bands and attendance," Nathan said. Eddie Murphy's April 14 appear­ ances at the auditorium were considered the event of the season by Pop Entertainment. Murphy gave two sold-out shows and his "color­ ful" language didn't seem to offend many of the show's listeners. "I really liked his graphic humor in the first half of the show," said Biological Science senior Dave War­ ren. "I would have taken my moth­ er to the second half, but I still enjoyed it." From early spring to late fall, no major concerts were on the music calendar until the October 11 ap­ pearance of UB40 at the auditorium. Bop Harvey, a local band from East Lansing, warmed up the anxious crowd with their own well-known reggae sound. "It was a very personable show. The band (UB40) was really recep­ tive to the crowd and in return the audience gave them a lot of feedback," said Kerry McKean, a ju­ nior in journalism. "People were dancing and singing while the guys in the band encouraged everyone to join them at the foot of the stage." The last show, wrapping up the 1985 concert season, was Aretha Franklin —the queen of soul. Al­ though Franklin only played for about an hour at her November 24 appearances at the auditorium, fans said they still enjoyed the show. "For me, it was really nostalgic," said English senior Ricardo Cooney. "It brought back memories of my childhood up in Detroit." — Marilyn Morrison Photo by LaVern Pennington PLAYING THE BLUES.

The party-goers, popularly known as tailgaters, ritualistically flock to Spartan Stadium, rain or shine, to cheer on the Spartans during home football games. But, before fighting the stadium crowds to get to their seats, tailgate parties abound campus-wide in which MSU alumni and students spare nothing. Delicious spreads of food are dis­ played from table to table in almost every campus parking lot and alum­ ni, students and friends engage in friendly conversation while munch­ ing on their favorite tailgate cuisine. To get alumni together to cheer on the Spartans, the MSU Alumni Association sponsors a tailgate party at Crossroads cafeteria every foot­ ball Saturday. The party begins three hours before the scheduled game time and consists of an all-you-can- eat buffet lunch, door prizes and plenty of dancing to top 40 hits. However, the Biggest Tailgate Par­ ty on Campus is sponsored by the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources Alumni Association. More than 1000 alumni and friends gather each year to attend this event. The tailgate, now in its 11th year, was attended by celebrities such as MSU President John DiBiaggio and Governor James Blanchard. And for only $8, tailgate participants could enjoy a delicious menu that consist­ ed of croissant sandwiches, a spud bar, steamed soups, a deli-salad bar, your choice of Michigan fruits and lots of ice cream. College of Agriculture and Natural Resources Assistant Director Robert Laprad, said the tailgate party originally took place on the banks of the Red Cedar River, but because of overwhelming popularity, it was moved to Jenison Field House. — Marilyn Morrison ON DISPLAY.

Sigma Chi fraternity participated in the Keg Toss as a part of the Greek Week Greek games held on Landon Field. MATTRESS SPRING. Greek games partici­ pants earned points for their house while taking part in the bed race on Landon Field. What a week to be greek "Ring Ring" "Hello, Kappa Kappa Gamma." "This is Joe Psi-U, is Kathy there?" "Hi, I've been lookin' from a win­ dow above, it's like a story of love, all I need is your good lovin' because I got you babe." Dave Duncan and Robin Ratch, Greek Sing chairs read the introduc­ tion to the final performers of the evening. Suddenly Kappa Kappa Gamma and Psi Upsilon appeared on stage to perform their Greek Sing number. "I was so nervous as we were being introduced," said Skip Redner, freshman, "But once we got on stage and into our number, it went by so fast and I had a great time." The Kappa/Psi-U performance in­ cluded the songs "Only You" by Yaz, "I got you babe" by UB40, and the Rascals "Good Lovin" in a med­ ley of music that "moved me to you." The team took second place in competition behind Sigma Delta Tau and Pi Lambda Phi, whose "Life" medley earned them a first place. Most houses practiced everyday for the month preceding Greek Sing. "We would practice 4 hours a day, every day to get ready for Greek Sing," said Cathy Ball, Alpha Phi sophomore. "It was hard and discouraging at times, but we want­ ed to do our best. I knew all the work paid off when we did our per­ formance." said Ball. After two months of "Bar Nights" and philanthropy events, Greek Sing was the official kick-off to Greek Week, May 2-9. The week included events held at each house, the Greek Feast held near Meridian Mall and the Greek Games held on Landon Field. One event was the Psi Upsilon car stuff. In the sorority division, Chi Omega won by stuffing 37 girls into a gutted out Volkswagen Rabbit in the two minute time limit. Sigma Nu and Delta Tau Delta tied in the fraternity division of car stuff and tied again in a one minute "stuff- off," so each house was awarded equal points from first and second.

"The point system was changed so people would put more time and effort into Special Olympics," said Phi Delta Theta John Sauve. "It definitely showed where the Greek Systems priorities are because Special Olympics is the most impor­ tant event. All of the houses get in­ volved in this reminder of how well- off we are here at Michigan State," said Sauve. The Greek Week Committee put most of their time and effort into Special Olympics and provided meals for all the participants from the money earned from Greek Sing. "It was the best Special Olympics in the last 5 or 6 years," Sauve said. All of the events of Greek Week provided a chance for the members of the Greek system to get together and show unity, said Sauve. Overall, Kappa Delta sorority and Delta Tau Delta fraternity were the winners of Greek Week with Delta Gamma and Sigma Nu earning "Most Spirited" honors. From the laughs of 20 Sigma Kappas dressed as extras from the "Rock Horror Picture Show" performing the "Time Warp" during M-TV bar night to the shouts of "Dee-Gees Pi Kapps!" during Pi Kappa Phi's stepshow act while dressed as Willy Wonka's Oompah loompah's, every house earned sat­ isfaction from participating in Greek Week.

Engineering freshman Todd Davison and engineering sophomore Pat Carraher indulge in a friendly game of volleyball while vacationing in Daytona Beach. Photos by LaVern Pennington Getting out of town Some MSU students discovered that the cure for their spring fever during winter term was to head south for Spring Break. Since November, students began devising their Spring Break plans to travel to various places across the nation from Florida to Colorado, ac­ cording to Michelle Thocker, travel agent for Washburne Travel Center, Inc., 228 Abbott Road, East Lansing. Florida seemed to be the most popular place for students to escape the blustery Michigan weather. Most students traveled to Fort Lauderdale, Daytona Beach, Orlando, Miami or Tampa, Thocker added. Those students who flocked to Fort Lauderdale experienced several days of sun-worshipping, anatomy­ watching and all-night partying. During the day, local bars spon­ sored competitions between various colleges and universities. The But­ ton, for example, offered a week­ long series of events, according to Bob Shepperd, assistant manager of the Fort Lauderdale bar. "We promote total chaos," Shepperd said. OFF BEAT. Instant stardom awaits psycholo­ gy senior Chuck Genoe, accounting fresh­ man Phil Dubinski and engineering freshman Steve Perry as they, along with several hundred students, spelled "Off Beat" for a movie title on the sands of Daytona Beach. In exchange for their acting and patience in the 45 degree weather, students were given free T-shirts. Six to seven schools competed against each other in events at The Button which included the basketball toss, co-ed beer chugs, pie-eating contests and the ''world famous wet T-shirt extravaganza," Shepperd said. Each school was represented by a one-man/one-woman team. On the last day of the week-long competi­ tions, the winning schools of each day competed in variations of the week's events, Shepperd said. The winning school received a 7- foot trophy or a private pool party supplied with free beer kegs on The Button's pool deck, Shepperd said. He also added, "MSU does very well every year." And when the day's events were over and the tropical sun went down, the night life sizzled. "I've never seen so many people crammed into one place with one purpose in mind —to party," said Christine Donnelly, a communica­ tions freshman who went to Fort Lauderdale. At night, most students went bar­ hopping or attended hotel parties, Donnelly said, while others sported their tans and cruised the crowded strip to find where the action was. For some students, however, the action became too hot. The State News reported that there were 890 more arrests than during 1985's spring vacation period because of changes in law enforce­ ment measures. The changes included additional police patrols and strict implementa­ tion of a new city ordinance includ­ ing a ban on open alcohol containers on public beaches and in parked vehicles, according to The State News. Students who were arrested were most often charged with drug pos­ session, disorderly conduct or inde­ cent exposure, The State News re­ ported. Others who wanted to travel, but wanted to avoid the rowdy atmosphere of Fort Lauderdale hit the hills of Colorado with their skis. Students with spring ski fever found deep powder and deep tans at ski resorts such as Vail, Breckenridge and Aspen, according to Robin Fell, a materials and logis­ tics management sophomore who vacationed in Colorado. "I chose to go to Colorado because I was assured a fun night life, but I also knew that I had the alternative to step away from it and relax, whereas that may have been more difficult in Florida," Fell said. Whether students spent their va­ cations on sunny slopes or sunny beaches, they would probably agree with Donnelly, who said, "Spring Break is an experience ev­ eryone in college has to try." -Stacy Schatz GRADUATION MASSES. Friday June 6 was the evening the Communication Arts and Sciences College commenced with cheers and bubbling champagne at Munn Ice Are­ na. Corking the bubbly tradition Graduation has traditionally been one big celebration. And what bet­ ter way to celebrate than with a lit­ tle champagne? This year the MSU commencement committee looked for the answer to that question. In an attempt to curtail the use of alcohol at graduation ceremonies, the committee requested individual college committees to urge students to refrain from bringing alcoholic or carbonated beverages to the 11 in­ door ceremonies - especially cham­ pagne. "Alcoholic beverages have always been banned inside University build­ ings," said LouAnna Simon, assistant provost for general academic ad­ ministration, and chairperson for the MSU commencement committee. "The problem we are faced with is in a sense that the students who are graduating are getting a little bit carried away with the champagne." "It has grown into kind of a contest to see how high, and how far the champagne corks can shoot into the air," she said. According to Simon, in the past the committee has received numer­ BUSINESS WORLD. June 7 marked the Col­ lege of Business commencement at Munn Ice Arena. Loue Ross of Ford Motor Co. served as speaker for the event. ous complaints from speakers, guests and members of the band who have been the victims of champagne baths and corks shoot­ ing into the air with no particular tar­ get. "Since commencement is an aca­ demic ceremony we didn't think that this kind of behavior was ap­ propriate," she said. "It's not like everyone brings in alcohol and is shooting corks all over the place. Popping champagne corks is isolat­ ed, but it is still a concern for all of us." Simon stressed that in no way was the committee attempting to ban the use of alcohol. "It's inappropriate to say that we have banned alcohol at the ceremonies because that has already been done and that is not what we've done," she said. "We've simply asked that it not be brought into commencement exer­ cises. We won't have public safety at the door or anything like that." "What we've taken is a commu­ nity responsibility approach for graduates to take some responsibil­ ity before popping the corks," Si­ mon said. "It's a question of courte­ sy to the other people who are attending the ceremony." At the University of Michigan and Indiana University public safety offi­ cials stand at entrances to confiscate any bottles from individuals entering the ceremonies, she said. Although steps were taken to prevent the flow of "bubbly" it did not dampen the spirits of over 4,500 students who received their degrees in June. "I'm just glad to be graduating and getting my degree," communi­ cations graduate Jill Berry said. "I didn't plan on taking any cham­ pagne with me to graduation — there will be plenty of time for that after the ceremony. But, I can un­ derstand why people would want to celebrate the end of their four or five years at MSU. It has been a lot of hard work for everyone. I know that I for one am glad to be fin­ ished." — Michael llich Photos by Janine Smith GRINNING GRADS. These students were among 3,309 bachelor's degree candidates who commenced on June 6 and 7.

Mainstream More than just a number. After adjusting to college life, MSU's 41,032 students quickly realized that more than anything else at MSU their major opened up the canal into a sea of choices for them. With 200 undergraduate programs and 13 graduate programs leading to master's or doctoral degrees, stu­ dents found that associating with groups and organizations on campus kept them from feeling adrift. MSU offered a choice of more than 340 registered stu­ dent organizations, 31 fraternities and 16 sororities. journalism junior Michael llich kept afloat by joining the American Marketing Association (AMA), Marketline and The State News. "No matter what your major is, there are many opportunities to join organizations that will give you hands on experience in your major," lllich said. Academics often flowed beyond the class­ room. MSU boasted the third largest peace corps volunteers and offered over 60 international programs. No books were needed for classes like aerobics, bowling or telecommunications, which served as a break from the mainstream of aca­ demic life. "We're a large place with great strength in lots Inside Academics 46 MSU welcomed its newly inaugu­ rated president, John DiBiaggio 90 Marching Band's preseason in­ cluded long hours of drills and practices of academic areas,” said Director of Admissions William Turner. The variety of social opportunities at MSU often kept students in a whirlpool of excitement, but the balanced academic atmosphere helped prepare them for careers in the professional job pool. — Janis Matheson photo by Janine Smith DOING MORE THAN POURING TEA Contrary to popular belief, a college president's spouse doesn't only attend luncheons. According to Carolyn DiBiaggio, a spouse's role is a real job. "We are trying to break down the stereotypical notion that concerns the role that all we do is sit around and pour tea." DiBiaggio, who served on many community boards such as the Lansing Symphony Board and the Red Cross Board, found her schedule nearly as hectic as her husband's. "It's like working around the clock," said DiBiaggio. Her role at Michigan State was that of a public rela­ tions spokesperson. "I'm supposed to involve my efforts to promote the University." This means meeting with community groups, women's groups, and corporate leaders. DiBiaggio aided her husband in the capital campaign to gain funds. "We've got to be sure all of the programs here are high quality pro­ grams." To achieve this increased funding is necessary. She went on to add, "We have a lot of work ahead of us." DiBiaggio's qualifications for her role were not lacking, receiving her bachelor's degree in English from the University of Michigan and then a masters degree from Wayne State. "All of the skills that I've picked up in my professional career have prepared me for this. I hope that in the future this is seen as a job and it needs to be recognized as such." Since coming from the University of Connecticut in 1985, DiBiaggio set some goals for herself. Among them; to promote women and make them more visible. "Women have come a long way due to the women's movement, but we have a long way to go in many areas." She believed that many key women were in important positions at MSU and that was a plus. She herself addressed women's groups on campus to get her point across. Overall, the new first lady of Michigan State was very excited about her position and the University it­ self which she called a fine institution. —Draga Bakmaz DRESSED IN CAP and gown for her husband's inauguration is first lady Carolyn DiBiaggio. Photo by Lewis Geyer II With a new vitality Up at dawn and working until dark appears to be new President John A. DiBiaggio's motto in his early days as head of the Univer­ sity. Ask anyone who has tried contacting him or has tried setting up an interview —it is nearly impossible. DiBiaggio, formerly president of the University of Connecticut and a former dentist, assumed his role at Michigan State in July, 1985 and instantly found his Job demanding and his schedule — hectic. According to Teresa Allen, administrative secretary for the president's office, "It's appoint­ ment after appointment, lunches and breakfast meetings — it's an ongoing thing. He goes on to ten or eleven o'clock at night a lot. His job is very demanding and since he's new, everyone wants to meet him." Immediately after descending upon the University, DiBiaggio spoke of new ideas, big goals. "I want to recapture the thrust of the past." He realized MSU had gone through some difficult times these past few years and his in­ tention was to gather the fi­ nances and resources to restore the University at the level it was before. According to the presi­ dent, "In order to do that I have Giving his inaugural address to over 1200 guests is President John A. DiBiaggio. "I want to recapture the thrust of the past. I think the most impor­ tant goal is that the quality of the universi­ ty is maintained." John DiBaiggio to spend a great deal of time forming relationships with con­ stituents, with the state government, corporation heads and alumni to get direct support so that the faculty can teach in a good atmosphere and so that students can learn." DiBiaggio, a native of Michigan and of Italian descent, wasted no time getting into the flow of things at Michigan State. Before long he was meeting with various representatives of the community all in an effort to become familiar with the University and to push for increased funding: at times things got a little hot. State repre­ sentative Morris Hood, chairman of the appropriations subcommit­ tee for higher education, accused Dr. DiBiaggio of going through the wrong channels in getting state aid for the school. In an effort to meet with stu­ dents, the seventeenth president was known to occasionally dine in residence halls with students. Sue Domenick, a resident hall as­ sistant in Holden Hall, upon meeting Dr. DiBiaggio at a board of trustees reception said, "What impressed me most about him was the fact that he was really concerned about students and student issues. At the reception it looked as though he spoke to ev­ eryone attending. He personally wanted to meet the students. I think he's very personable yet he's a professional too." According to DiBiaggio, he wants his relationship with stu­ dents "to be a mutually trusting relationship." He wants to meet as many students as possible as well as faculty. DiBiaggio feels that being a president means as­ suming leadership duties, not Just administrative ones. He wishes to give people access to him by opening his door to students who could give him ideas and tell him problems. DiBiaggio's main objective is to lead the University into better times and further the dream for­ mer President John Hannah achieved - that of a land-grant college. He said many times, "I think the most important goal is that the quality of the University is maintained." — Draga Bakmaz Michigan State alumnus, Governor James Blanchard addresses the newly inaugurat­ ed president at the Wharton Center on September 29, 1985. Photo by MSU News Bureau The greeting place For many students, the MSU Main Library was for anything but studying. Occasional drinking and constant chatter had the library staff wondering if the building had been renamed a social hall. "Socializing was always a problem," Associate Director Dr. Beth Shapiro said. "Three west was the most popular area for socializing because there were more seats and no library person­ nel stationed there," she added. "The browsing area was incredibly noisy too, students seemed to think the area was for group study," Shapiro said. "Three west was the best place to socialize," Phil Slocum, a business sophomore said. "One night I went there with a friend to study for big midterms. Instead we had a contest to see who could meet the most people. I beat her 17-15," Slocum said. Shapiro sometimes thought stu­ dents viewed the library as a place to hang out or pick up dates. Although necking was not a big problem, you did see that sort of thing in secluded areas oc­ casionally, Shapiro said. "A lot of people are waiting to score —it's like watching traffic. "We would take to-go cups from Wendy’s and fill them with Tom Collins' when we went to watch advertising 205 on video tapes at the library, it made them go a little faster." sophomore Phil Slocum People would sit and watch, then honk when they saw something they liked," Ralph Heibutzki, journalism junior said. "You can tell people were waiting to get picked up because they came to the library all decked out," Heibutzki added. For some reason students liked to drink in the library, Shapiro said. Although it happened infre­ quently, janitors did find empty beer cans around the building, Shapiro said. Some students preferred to be more discreet about drinking in the library. "We would take to-go cups from Wendy's and fill them with Tom Collins' when we went to watch Advertising 205 on video tapes at the library," Slocum said. "It made them (the tapes) go a lit­ tle faster," he said. Besides drinking in the library, other traditional, but unusual happenings included yearly flash­ ers. "We had them (flashers) on occasion," Shapiro said. "Usually the person was caught and was not someone affiliated with the University." Even with all the exitement the library had to offer, students sel­ dom forgot the hunger pangs associated with homework. To deter students from snacking in the main library, a snack shop was opened on the fourth floor in February. Take- Five featured beverages, sandwiches, candy and assorted snack foods. "The snack shop was okay, but students should be able to bring their own stuff," Barb Isaacs, journalism junior said. "I don't think Take Five will deter eating in the library, people al­ ways sneak stuff." — Janis Matheson MONEY MATTERS.

Photos by Larry Miller Living and learning In the past, when people thought of the Peace Corps, they probably pictured a solitary vol­ unteer worker living in an isolated jungle in Africa. But in 1986, on the Peace Corps 25th Anniversary, the picture has expanded. Approximately 5,600 Peace Corps volunteers were working on grass roots, self-help projects in 60 nations around the world. Michigan State University ranked third in the number of volunteers recruited by any office in 25 years, according to Eliza­ beth Brabbs, an MSU Peace Corp Coordinator. "We have also had the most volunteers at university level in 1984-1985, and are now conducting a campaign to in­ crease student awareness about the Peace Corps," said Brabbs. The Peace Corps was estab­ lished on March 1, 1961, by an Executive Order issued by Presi­ dent John F. Kennedy. In Septem­ ber of that year, Congress passed the Peace Corps Act declaring the policy of the United States to promote world peace and friendship through the new inde­ pendent agency. The act directs the Peace Corps to make U.S. citizens available to interested countries for manpower pur­ "The people really needed us there. When we got off the bus at our training vil­ lage, we were greeted by song from the villag­ ers. I felt needed and welcome." Kim Phillips poses, and to promote a cultural exchange between Americans and the people served. The regions served, which in­ cluded Africa, Inter-America, Asia and the Pacific areas, asked for specific qualities in the volunteers sent to them. "In general, we stress that we are looking for volunteers who are flexible and practical," said Carla Henry, a Peace Corps Coordinator. "Though we don't look at academics, we are trying to meet the needs of our host countries, and so skill is also im­ portant. Brabbs said a country once asked for a butcher, which the Peace Corps was able to find. Currently the most common requests are for volunteers ex­ perienced in business, health, construction and engineering, however education is a constant concern to poverty stricken nations. Kim Phillips, a graduate student at MSU taught health and nutri­ tion in Sierra Leone, West Africa for two years. "The people really needed us there," she said. "When we got off the bus at our training village, we were greeted by song from the villagers. I felt needed and welcome." Of course, MSU recruiters con­ centrated on virtues like knowl­ edge in agriculture and natural re­ sources, because the school is noted for these areas of study. A Peace Corps assignment can provide a volunteer with the op­ portunities to travel, to gain fluency in a new language, to ex­ perience a new culture and to use skills learned in school or on the job to help improve the lives of people in the developing world, Brabbs said. In addition to transportation expenses, medical and health coverage and a monthly stipend, volunteers receive a readjustment allowance upon their return to the U.S. of $175 for each month of service or $4,550 for 26 months. — Kimberly Gaudin STANDING ALONE.

For improved access Photos by LaVern Pennington. MSU has services and pro­ grams to help handicappers adapt to campus, but often it is the University which has trouble adjusting to the disabled. "The University's environment and sometimes attitudes are such that sometimes acceptance (of handicappers) is not always posi­ tive," said Judy Gentile, director of the Office for Programs for Handicapped Persons. "Part of our purpose is to be more accommodating so barriers are lessened and handicappers can more easily pursue their classes and goals." One service the University pro­ vided was bus transportation to and from classes. The buses are specially equipped for students who are unable to get up into regular buses and may be used only by those students. Riders are charged a fee similar to those who use the regular MSU bus service. Path ramps have been cut out of curbs for easier access and many campus building have been made accessible. However, Jim Bohr, a handi­ capped chemistry student, said the University could do more. "It is good that they have the bus service, but I am not sure if it is adequate," Bohr said. "Not all the sidewalks have path ramps "We were able to make the museum more accessible for on campus handicap­ pers who visit the mu­ seum everyday. Part of our purpose is to be more accomodat­ ing so barriers are lessened." Judy Bohice and in the winter they are often snowcovered." Building accessibility is most im­ portant for Bohr, he said. "MSU has done a lot in getting the older buildings accessible, but it has a ways to go," Bohr said. "It uses left over money each year to make more buildings accessible, but I think it should be a line item in the budget." Some handicappers find note­ taking to be a problem, he said. "But I talk to my professors be­ fore the term starts and make ar­ rangements to get copies of their notes or have other students take notes for me," Bohr said. "Then I take the exams orally." The Office for Programs for Handicapped Students also pro­ vides what it calls the Alternative Learner Service. "We give special consideration to those students who cannot write as rapidly and provide them with notetakers," said Ladye Hahn, a secretary for the Office. "We have readers in the library for blind students and copy ma­ chines to enlarge materials for the partially sight-impaired." An extensive renovation of the MSU Museum and the initiation of several support groups were the biggest achievements for the Office of Handicapper Services Programs this year, Gentile said. "We were able to make the museum more accessible for on- campus handicappers who visit the museum every day," she said. "Our very active student advisory committee met with President John DiBiaggio to brief him on handicapper facilities here at MSU." Support groups for alternative learners and the visually impaired, all comprised of student volunte­ ers, were also formed this year. Future plans include building a new entrance to Wells Hall, Gen­ tile said. "It will allow access to the low- ceiling areas, without circumven­ ting the whole area," she said. — Jane Stamm HAND TALK.

The Michigan State University Library, in connection with Handicapper Services, provided student scribes and mechanical equipment to help blind people func­ tion at the University. A group of honor students called the Tower Guard volunteered four hours time each week to help blind students. "We have about 80 Tower Guard members per term and other students who are interested in volunteering, for a total of 125-150 each term," said J.J. Jackson, coordinator of alternative format services. "The scribes spend their time either recording textbooks or other materials or reading directly to the visually impaired." Blind students had access to talking encyclopedias, dictionaries and calculators and could use Fortrak cas­ sette tape recorders to record lectures and assist in notetaking. "The numbers of blind students who use the materi­ als and technology is increasing all the time," Jackson said. "We have a lot of new equipment that we are training and familiarizing students with." Some examples of the new equipment available to aid the blind are an Opticon Camera, a Kurzwel Reading Machine, and an IBM-PC Computer. The IBM-PC Computer with an artificial voice is available for students' use as well as a Braille computer which reads and writes Braille before sending the message to a printer. Campus orientation sessions scheduled for blind stu­ dents and closed circuit televisions, large print copiers and magnifying devices were also available for those who were partially sight impaired. —Jane Stamm DINOSAUR DISPLAY.

Photos by LaVem Pennington Back to the books Whether the reason was to meet interesting people, to up­ date skills, or to complete a de­ gree, one thing was evident: adults were returning to the class­ rooms at Michigan State Universi­ ty and to colleges nationwide at an upward rate. There were several reasons for adults, older and younger to re­ turn to college. "There are professional, per­ sonal and social reasons," com­ mented Pat Reis, program specialist for Lifelong Education. "Very often people see getting an education as a motivation for getting a better job." Another reason Reis believed people returned to school was because they wanted to get into another degree. Statistics showed that ten years after a person re­ ceived a degree, they were not working in the same job as they were qualified. In fact, on the average a person has three to five changes in their career path in their lifetime. By continuing an education, a person is getting in­ creased training for a different job. Among the many returnees: di­ vorced and widowed women. "Many women need to do something meaningful with their time," noted Reis. "After the kids "Many women need to do something with their time. After the kids are grown they have a chance. There are professional, per­ sonal and social reasons." Pat Reis Lifelong Education are grown they have a chance." With technology on the rise, many adults felt their skills need­ ed to be updated. People need­ ed to be up on new ideas, new methods. It is embarrassing for new employees to know more on professional techniques and facts. "There is a knowledge explo­ sion," the program specialist said. "Very quickly you have a degree that is outdated." One reason for the increase in the number of returnees was the increased age of the baby boomers. Some were reaching forty —making an increase inevitable. Ms. Reis claims it was "kind of like the snake that swal­ lows the rat —we're seeing the bulge." The MSU News Bureau reports showed that in the fall of 1984 Lifelong Education enrollment was 497 and in the fall of 1985 enrollment jumped to well over 500. This does not include the number of adults registered in regular MSU credit courses. Lifelong Education, which offered courses to returning stu­ dents on a noncredit basis, had a support group to help ease the tension of returnees. In addition, the Office of Adult Services had a SIGI+ computer. The System of Interactive Guidance and Infor­ mation is a computer terminal for adults looking for career guid­ ance and jobs. "SIGH- is for adults," said Virgil Ball, Staff Assistant for the Office of Adult Services. "It is an interactive guidance system which allows you to access your values, resources and skills." With the number of adults re­ turning to college, one thing was definite. It showed that people had more choices. No longer was college a straight four year program for everyone. In fact, in 1985 one student in three in U.S. colleges was over 26 years old. — Draga Bakmaz Worldly Classrooms Exploring India's Taj Mahal or visiting a Barbados sugar plantation were just two of the adventures students could find themselves in by taking part in one of Michigan State Universi­ ty's overseas study programs. MSU sponsored a growing number of overseas study pro­ grams which were available in Eu­ rope, the Middle East, Asia and Latin America throughout the academic year. MSU offered more than 60 different overseas study programs in 1985-86, giving students the opportunity to study abroad in such farflung locales as Leningrad State University in the U.S.S.R. and a kibbutz in the Artzi community of Israel. But exotic locales and cultural adventures aside, what about the culture shock or unfriendly natives one hears to much about when planning to study abroad? "Absolutely untrue," said Wayne Karrfalt, an HRI sophomore who spent fall term in Seville, Spain. "It was the best experience of my life," Karrfalt said. "The people were very helpful and friendly —I want to go back as soon as I can." Karrfalt traveled to Spain without knowing anything of the language, but, to his surprise, he said, he picked up the language quickly and easily. Karrfalt added that the only culture shock he ex­ perienced was the realization that, "... Americans are very isolated and very ethnocentric." Europeans, according to Karrfalt, have a broader view of the world. "They're very cultured, and a lot more internationally aware than Americans," Karrfalt said. Karrfalt called his trip to Seville "Students learn well and mature quickly when studying in a dif­ ferent culture." Ralph Smuckler "very inexpensive," and said the $3,500 he spent on his trip in­ cluded travel and meals. "The easiest time to travel abroad is now," he said. "Students can get by on very little money in most places overseas, and the dollar is very strong there right now." Concern about the cost of overseas study programs or need for financial aid should not deter a student from studying abroad, said Dolores Foote, a clerk recep­ tionist for the Office of Overseas Study. "The numbers keep creeping up, year to year, and I expect it will keep on going in that direc­ tion," Foote said. As the number of participants in the overseas study programs increased, it would seem that concern about international ter­ rorist activity would rise also. But according to Foote, terrorism was not a problem with the overseas study programs. "I've only received three phone calls about terrorism from worried students and parents, and so far, only two people have dropped out of the program on the basis of terrorist activity," Foote said. For students who have studied overseas, interesting and often humorous experiences top their lists of fond memories. June Lu­ cas, a social science major who traveled to Egypt last year, remembered her first experience with a new culture. "Ah yes —the communication gap. I clearly recall the great joy of sitting on a clean, white bench in downtown Cairo in my only pair of jeans," Lucas said. "Then I discovered I was stuck to it! How was I to know that the Arabic sign said 'wet paint'?" Lucas laughed. Ralph Smuckler, Dean of International Studies and Pro­ grams, said he sees studying abroad as an enriching experi­ ence, both academically and personally. "Students learn well and ma­ ture quickly when studying in a different culture," Smuckler said. "There are lessons to be derived from an overseas experience which can rarely be duplicated in East Lansing or on a campus in the United States." Students who have studied overseas tend to agree with Smuckler. Sandy Samul, was a journalism junior who studied in Caceres, Spain, in the spring of 1985. "The three months I spent abroad were three of the most significant months of my life. I learned to manage myself with confidence and how to approach people from different back­ grounds," Samul said. "I also learned never to be over-confi­ dent," Samul added. "Being my­ self and keeping my ears and mind open were the keys to making my international experi­ ence beneficial." — Karen Scherr MADE OF STEEL.

Tough gets tougher It sounds easy enough. All you need is a composite score of 29 on your ACT exam or a 1300 equivalent on your SAT. What's so hard about that? Oh, and one more more thing —you had to have finished in the top five percent of your high school grad­ uating class. Fulfill these require­ ments and you've made it into the Honors College-no sweat. The Honors College at Michi­ gan State University is indeed a prestigious college, considering only 900 undergraduates were members during the 1985-86 school year. For incoming fresh­ men, it was by invitation only. As for sophomores, if they weren't invited in their freshman year but were within reach of the high re­ quirements, they could apply. Approximately 20 percent of the Honors College members joined the group this way. According to Donald Lammers Director of the Honors College, which is located in Eustace Hall, "The essence of the program is freedom from the standard re­ quirements." Students were free to reshape their undergraduate experiences so they could be en­ riched. They had individual rates of learning —so they were not restricted. "I think they get an undergraduate education that "I enjoyed the classes and I got a lot out of them. They were more work but I thought they were fair­ ly graded." Jamie Heim enables them to get the aca­ demic riches of the University," Lammers went on to say. Other benefits Honors College members enjoyed included academic advis­ ing, registration privileges, priority admission to limited enrollment programs, and graduation recogni­ tion. Honors College students could take honors courses and sections that were aimed at a more rigor­ ous examination of the subjects involved. Often honors students were urged to take courses for which they may not have had the prerequisites. This made them strive harder and work at an ad­ vanced level. "We think it is bet­ ter that a student get a 3.0 or a 3.5 in a more advanced class than get a "cinchy" 4.0 in an easier class," noted Director Lammers. Once in the program, Honors College students needed to maintain a 3.2 continuous HALL OF FAME. Eustace Hall, one of the oldest buildings on campus, is the home of the Honors College. grade point average. In courses not offered with honors sections, students could earn honors credit by taking hon­ ors caliber study with special guidance from the instructor. In addition to this, Honors college members could earn credit for research, thesis or independent study projects. Many people, though not in the Honors College, took Honors courses for credit. Jamie Heim, a junior majoring in finance, took an honors history, humanities and three American Thought and Lan­ guage courses for credit. "It's a lot more reading. In History III Honors we had seven huge paperbacks to read in addition to an art text and a history text," said Heim. "I enjoyed the classes and I got a lot out of them. They were more work but I thought that they were fairly graded." Originally, MSU established the Honors College in order to find a more suitable program for stu­ dents with high abilities. These students in turn were required to keep up the high standards of the college. "It was originally estab­ lished at a time when the Univer­ sity was attempting to attract high-rate students," Lammars said. -Draga Bakmaz STUDY BUG. Although Electrical engi­ neering has a reputation of difficulty, ju­ nior Ralph Volino takes accelerated Hon­ ors courses. MOTIVATION FOR A 3.5 You may have referred to them as the academic elite or perhaps you called them study bugs. No mat­ ter what they were known as, this small group of stu­ dents reached a goal: they achieved the Dean's List at Michigan State University. 3611 students out of approximately 40,000 made the academic honor roll during the last quarter of 1985, ac­ cording to Lee Rowe, Supervisor in Data Reporting. In order to be on the Dean's List, students were required to maintain a 3.5 grade point average for the term. The College of Business, which had an enrollment of more than 6000 students, sported 659 of them on the Dean's List during fall term—the most of any college. "I think making the list is of great significance," said Alyson Sharron, a marketing sophomore. "It shows your capabilities and it looks great on a resume." lames Madison College, with 950 students enrolled fail term, had 97 appear on the Dean's List—10.2 percent of the college. Overall, the University average of honor rollees was approximately 9 percent for fall term as well as in the few previous terms. To some students, making the Dean's List was an honor. "Being on the Dean's List provides me with an internal source of motivation," said Sharron, a four consecutive term Dean's List achiever. "Achieving the list gives me a sense of personal satisfaction and ac­ complishment." To other students the Dean's List meant nothing. "I don't think the Dean's List is any big deal," said An­ drea Morris, a humanities—pre-law sophomore. "Most people don't know it exists and I doubt prospective employers look at it either." —Draga Bakmaz 3.5 HONORS. Students with at least a 3.5 earned a spot on the Union Building's honor roll.

Photos by LaVern Pennington Rising numbers Michigan State University had thirteen colleges authorized to offer programs leading to master's and doctoral degrees. Approximately one out of every five students on the East Lansing campus was enrolled in one of these graduate programs. The College of Education held the largest number of graduate students with 1,293 or 20 percent of the 6,504 total. Four other colleges each housed about 12 percent of the total; Natural Science with 774, Social Science with 757, Agricultural and Natural Resources with 737 and Business with 725. Graduate programs at MSU showed an increase of whites, males and foreign students in 1985-86 when compared to undergraduate studies as well as an increase from $46.50 to $61.00 per credit hour. Blacks showed a decline of six percent to four percent from undergraduate to graduate stu­ dents. Women held a slight ma­ jority for both undergraduate and master's degree programs, but the men outnumbered the wom­ en two to one in doctoral pro­ grams. Foreign students increased from only two percent of undergrads to 17 percent of master's students and finally to 31 percent of doctoral candidates, whereas Michigan residents dropped from 90 percent of undergraduate students to 69 percent for master's programs and comprised only 42 percent of doctoral candidates. "This trend is quite common and very logical," said David VanKammen, a graduate of the College of Business now working in Chicago. "Students receive "I passed up all the fun and sun in Hawaii to come to Michigan State to work harder and obtain a more meaningful degree." —Ronald Brown their bachelor's degree and then move out of the state, so any graduate work done would be at another institution." Another explanation for this trend was the reputation of the University's graduate programs. A reputable institution such as MSU drew students from all over the world to further their education. One of Michigan State Univer­ sity's most reputable colleges was the College of Education. "MSU has probably the best college of education; at least it is in the top five," said graduate student Ronald Brown. "I passed up all the fun and sun in Hawaii to come to Michigan State to work harder and obtain a more meaningful degree." Students chose to enter one of five departments in the College of Education; Teacher Education, Health and Physical Education, Educational Administration, Reading Instruction and Counseling, Educational Psycholo­ gy and Special Education. To augment formal classroom offer­ ings, students participated in col­ lege research development and service. Opportunities for experi­ ence included the Institute for Re­ search on Teaching which focused on the analysis and im­ provement of teacher decision making, and the Youth Sports In­ stitute, which conducted research in physical education. The Institute for Research on Teaching was founded at MSU in April, 1981, and competes for re­ search grants with schools all across the country. These grants are heavily sought after, and many schools combine their efforts to obtain a grant. "MSU won by itself without combining with any other schools," states Bob Martin, Coordinator for Student Affairs in the College of Education. "When you can pick up those kinds of grants, your reputation is obviously very good." An employer from Kentucky gave the highest praise to the graduate program in the College of Education, "I'll take any gradu­ ate from any of the alternate programs sight unseen!" Graduate school was a com­ mon occurence for Teacher Edu­ cation students. In order to have received a continuing teacher certificate, teachers had to com­ plete 27 credits as required by the State of Michigan. Because of the requirement, most students went on to receive their Master's degree. Other students were sim­ ply ready for something different. Ronald Brown was 'dissatisfied' with his current position. "I'm ready to go on in my education and further advancement." The College of Education was just one of many excellent gradu­ ate programs at Michigan State University in 1985-86. According to the University's Mission State­ ment: "Education of its citizens is the state's best investment in its future. Michigan State University has honored, and will continue to honor, this public trust." — Mark A. Walters POTTERY PUZZLE.

Middle Eastern graduate assistant Priyantha Perera helps no-preference freshman Tim Secontine with his trigonometry home­ work for Math 109. Communication gap "It's very hard to understand him, so the class is harder than it usually would be," commented freshman Eric Donaghy, a pre­ professional major, of his foreign math Teaching Assistant (T.A.). Many students shared his opinion. So many, in fact, that the Detroit Free Press ran a front page news story about the foreign T.A.'s and the problems both they and the students ran into at MSU. The biggest complaint was that they could not speak proper Eng­ lish, so no matter how intelligent they were, they just could not get the material across. "I could only understand one out of three words. He may have been really smart but there was such a big language barrier, I couldn't learn anything. So, I switched sec­ tions," Donaghy said. "It's really bad because the T.A. can't talk," commented ad­ vertising major, freshman Laura Hafeman of her computer science T.A. from the Middle East. "I don't care to stay at the lectures. It's really hard to ask him questions and he has to write the simplest requests, like 'Please, "I could only under­ stand one out of three words. He may have been really smart but there was such a big language barrier I couldn’t learn any­ thing." freshman Eric Donaghy hand in your homework' on the board because no one could un­ derstand him otherwise." Because of the language prob­ lems, students sometimes try to switch sections. But, that does not always guarantee an English speaking T.A. "I had a Polish math T.A. and couldn't under­ stand a thing," said sophomore Stephanie Isaacs, a no-preference major. "So I switched sections and now I have a T.A. from Sin­ gapore who's not so bad. They both know the material, but they just can't get it across. I got mad every time I had to go stompin' into drops and adds." Other frustrations occurred when a student paid for a course and nothing was being learned. Hafeman commented, "I resent having to pay so much for a class and have a T.A. I can't under­ stand or learn from." Not all students shared such negative reactions and would gladly pay "so much money" for a foreign T.A. My foreign T.A. is great," said freshman Brad Hall, a computer science major of his math T.A. "Because she doesn't speak English very well, she goes over everything more than once to make sure there's no language barrier, so I know things twice as good. She doesn't take things for granted because she isn't sure what we know. I had an Ameri­ can prof. last term, but I'm doing a lot better with my foreign T.A." This all goes to show, as Isaacs put it, "A lot of them are bad, but you can't judge them all by just a couple of experiences." — Diane Havens TEACH BY TAPE. Many general educa­ tion classes were offered on cassette tape. Maureen Hardin, a general business senior listens to Chemistry 141. No avoiding them Standing in line was a college requirement. Whether it was the line to buy books, waiting at reg­ istration or the procession to the keg, students became familiar with the endless flow of people and procedures that pervaded campus life. Incoming freshmen quickly learned that there was a method to some of the madness, because every student must fol­ low one particular path. General Education classes are another part of college life that is unavoidable. Everyone is required to travel that wellworn trail on their way to receiving an under­ graduate degree. Along the way, students must earn a minimum total of 45 credits in four areas: written and oral communications; arts and humanities; biological, physical and mathematical sci­ ences; and social and behavioral sciences. "The bottom line is to balance flexibility for students and to hon­ or the commitment of the Uni­ versity: that students acquire a liberal arts general education consisting of 25% of their total education," said Dr. John Hudzik, chairman of the University Com­ mittee on General Education. The importance of General Education is that very student ac­ quires a balanced education. A liberal general education, opposed to a technical educa­ tion, makes a university well- rounded, Dr. Hudzik explained. Many students were wary of the general education process because it was a very long line in which everyone had to wait. Others saw the wait as a blessing in disguise. "The general educa­ tion courses were worthwhile because they give you a well- rounded background" senior Kathy Alderink "A lot of students receive per­ sonal enrichment from general education classes and find them a relief from the more discipline- oriented courses of their program," said Dr. Etta Abra­ hams, Assistant Director of the University Undergraduate Divi­ sion. "There are also other stu­ dents who see General Education as a hurdle to get over, which is unfortunate. Dr. Abrahams' views were supported by students. "The general education courses were worthwhile because they give you a well- rounded background," said Finance senior Kathy Alderink. "I enjoyed the Humanities and So­ cial Science classes, but I didn't think the ATL or Natural Science courses helped me in any way." "In general, there was too much busy work required," said music education junior Kim Emmons. "They put too much emphasis on general education classes and don't let you concen­ trate on other classes. I don't think all general education classes apply to everyone." Another student felt there were problems in General Educa­ tion. "I think General Education classes vary too much from instructor to instructor," Psycho­ logy freshman Kim Ferris said. "There should be stricter guidelines so classes are equivalent in difficulty." While some students were praising or critizing general edu­ cation, others were bypassing it. Incoming freshmen who received Advanced Placement (AP) credit were able to use it in place of one or more general education classes. There were 1,012 fresh­ men with AP credit in the 1985- 86 school year-making up 12% of the total freshmen class. This was a significant increase from the 833 students of the year be­ fore. "There were a lot more peo­ ple with AP credit this year than in previous years," Director of Admissions Dr. William Turner. Students who received AP credit were grateful for the op­ portunity to cut in line. "I think it was an advantage to get the advanced credit because it saved me a lot of money," said Erissa Newhouse, communica­ tions freshman. "By getting six credits for ATL I was able to take classes that would apply to my major." "I received 14 credits in History and English composition," said Business freshman Cindy Murphy. "I thought it was great because I was a term ahead. Getting the AP credit saved me a lot of money and work." — Kim Alexander NOTE DOZE.

TELEVISED SESSIONS; VIDEO LESSONS Since the mid-1950's, students at Michigan State Uni­ versity have had an alternative to the standard lecture class with 42 televised classes available in the past school year. Students were able to view these class lectures in any of the 106 classrooms equipped to receive Instructional Television on one of the many campus or local channels, or from one of the video cassettes at the MSU Library. "Most students see programs in the classrooms they've been assigned to because Graduate Assistants are available to answer questions, give announcements, and distribute handouts," said Dr. Kent Creswell, Educative Services Manager for Instructional and Public T.V. "This is an important part of the learning experience." The variety of ways to see a lecture was considered an advantage of taking a televised class. Dr. Robert Robbins' Biological Science 211 was one of these class­ es. "Students need to have access to the video, that can be an advantage," Robbins said. "I have had com­ muter students that would come in once a week and watch the whole weeks' lectures at once." Students, however, had mixed emotions about at­ tending televised classes. "In a way, I thought the Accounting 201 and 202 classes on T.V. were bad because they were so impersonal and the professor lectured so fast," said Business sophomore Draga Bakmaz. "Yet there are advantages because you can always see it in the library as many times as you want." Another student had Advertising 205 on television and was unhappy with it. "I didn't like the class as well as lectures because it's hard to motivate yourself to go sit and watch someone on T.V.," said Packaging sophomore Kelly Mefford. "I wouldn't take another T.V. class but I have to, because many classes are only available on T.V., which is a shame." —Kim Alexander SCHOOL DAZE. Watching Genetics 212 on TV in the library is physiology junior Elliot Maness. Photos by Matt LeVeque A lighter backpack What? A class with out books? To some students this meant a lighter backpack, more money for the bar, and a few more hours 'Grand Rivering.' To others it only meant more hours at the library trying to decipher lecture notes with nothing to turn to for help. MSU offered a variety of courses with no required text. Maria Leary, geography senior, thought, "Money-wise it's an ex­ cellent idea, but I think the classes are a lot harder without a book." The Physical Education Depart­ ment offered the most "no book" classes. No text was re­ quired in any of their one-credit courses. The most popular pro­ grams were racquetball in the fall, cross country skiing in the winter, and tennis in the spring. Dancercize was another phys­ ical education class in which many students have recently be­ come interested. It, too, was a one-credit class with no books. According to T.A. Sue Sekaras, fashion merchandising freshman, "If you participate and do well on the quiz, you get good exercize, and a 4.0. Once a class has begun students sneak in just for the exercise and fun." Students were saving money on books in more than just the "I felt it was more mon­ ey in my pocket, and why bother in the first place because i hate going to the book­ store." sophomore Kim Watts Physical Education department. Rich Johnson, telecommunica­ tions senior, was surprised to find a course in his major that did not require a text. When asked about how he felt about having no books in his telecommunication 310 class he answered, "I loved it because I didn't ever have to read for the class!" The English department also offered some classes without books. Some sections of English 213 didn't use a book because it was a writing workshop. Accord­ ing to Bob Pemmell, communica­ tions junior, "We don't have time for a book. We do nothing but write!" Even though some classes did have required texts, some stu­ dents did not have to buy their own. Kimberley Watts, preprofessional sophomore, LUCKY STRIKE.

There was a required text, but the instructor made copies of everything students needed to know so they didn't have to pur­ chase the text. Watts said, "I felt it was more money in my pocket, and why bother in the first place because I hate going to the bookstore." Other students weren't as thrilled about the idea of a class with no book. Alan Josephson, fashion merchandising junior, had never had a class without a book. He said, "I don't think I'd like it. Sometimes I'd want to learn more than the teacher gave me but without a book, I'd have nothing to go to." Laura Bernardini, packaging senior, was living proof of Josephson's assumptions. There was no book in her packaging 428 class. "I felt like I was getting a very limited view of what I should know. I didn't like it that way," stated Bernardini. In the past, students inquiring about a course asked about difficulty and the quality of the instructor. In the future they may be asking, "Do I have to buy a book?" — Tenley Ysseldyke Photo by LaVern Pennington Photos by Matt LeVeque SWEAT FOR CREDIT.

Photos by LaVern Pennington Seeking a Voice If some Michigan college stu­ dents have their way, they will soon revive the drive to have a voice in the governing bodies of all colleges and universities in the state. During 1986, students from the University of Michigan and Michi­ gan State University began action to lobby for an amendment to the state constitution to allow students to sit on the boards. Stu­ dent representation in these bodies had been a long-standing goal for many student govern­ ments. The goal resurfaced in October when the Michigan Collegiate Coalition (MCC), a body repre­ senting 15 four-year institutions in Michigan, unanimously passed a resolution introduced by U-M re­ presentatives supporting the concept of a student trustee or regent. "We've been talking about it for years," said Maria Ladas, di­ rector of legislative affairs of the Associated Students of MSU. "It's become a real priority for a lot of student governing bodies around the state." Students wanted the Michigan constitution amended to allow the governor to appoint a stu­ dent to college and university governing bodies. By having a voting member on the bodies, student opinions would have more punch behind them. Many student governing groups complained that their opinions often go unheeded, even when students are the ones that would be most affected by a decision. Although student repre­ "We’ve been talking about it for years. It’s become a reality for a lot of student gov­ erning bodies around the state." Maria Ladas put out by the students, but stu­ dent disapproval of the facility apparently has little or no bearing on their education." If the students' current propos­ al is successful, one voting stu­ dent will sit on the governing boards at all the four-year institu­ tions in the state of Michigan. sentatives were granted speaking time at some Board of Trustees meetings, Ladas said that some Trustees considered this a token move to keep the students hap­ py. She added that she doubted that the Trustees seriously considered what the students had to say on issues. The proposal faced at least passive opposition from some current trustees. Ladas said that MSU Trustees had not comment­ ed much on the issue publicly, but that private talks with some of them had shown a little "discomfort" with the idea. MSU Trustees in particular have made decisions that were very unpopular with the students, and direct student input on the decisions could create upheaval at the normally peaceful board meetings, Ladas said. She said that a good example of the po­ tential for controversy was the board's decision to have student tuition dollars finance the con­ struction of a major sports facili­ ty. "They didn't listen to us last year," Ladas said. "The All-Events facility they approved was the last straw." "It's ridiculous that 95 percent of the cost of the arena is being Ladas, an MSU junior, said that the students are using the state of North Carolina as a reference point. All public institutions in that state had voting students on the boards of trustees. The president of each institution's student body serves as a trustee for that institu­ tion. The proposal for student re­ presentation was a major one, however. In order to change the structure of the Michigan institu­ tions, Michigan voters would have to pass a constitutional amendment by a two-thirds mar­ gin. Ladas speculated that the cost of getting the voter support looks enormous. "We really need a lot of finan­ cial support," Ladas said. "Thou­ sands of dollars are needed to campaign for the changes." Students from the Big Three universities (U-M, MSU and Wayne State University) were already chipping in to defray the costs of research. Students from other colleges in the state were lending research and moral support to the project, but dollars to cover phone calls, letters and trips to Lansing were coming in from the student gov­ ernments at U-M and MSU. — Chuck Dalton Jacket required The lobby was filled with performers dressed in gray and navy costumes. Each one anx­ iously listened for his or her name on the intercom. It was time to audition for the roles they would play for the rest of their lives. IBM was at the Placement Ser­ vices Office for interview. Just like actors rehearsing for an audition, students, too, must prepare for an interview. "Interviewing is an acquired act. You don't want to seem too bush or cocky, but on the other hand you don't want to be too humble or timid. You have to be assertive without being arrogant. It's kind of like asking your dad for money," Matthew Berch, Communications senior said. Last year over 4,000 employers came to the Placement Services Office from a large variety of companies to conduct interviews with students in many different fields of study. "I remember trudging across campus to pick up the upcoming interview flyer to see if there was a company that I desired working for," Jeffry Rodin, a Business sen­ ior said. "It was kind of like the anticipation of waiting for a letter in my mailbox from the right per­ son." Special programs and seminars were offered through the Place­ ment Services to help bridge the gap between education and the real world. "I learned a lot from the career workshops. They made me think about my future, and I realized how important it is to start plan­ ning early," Joe Colainne, a James Madison junior said. Not only did the office assist students in future employment "I remember trudging across campus to pick up the upcoming interview flyer to see if there was a company that i desired working for. it was kind of like the anticipation of waiting for a letter in my mailbox from the night person." senior Jeffry Rodin opportunities, they also supplied lists of jobs available to students during the school year. Last year alone 17,000 on-campus and 10, 000 off-campus jobs were listed at the office. The Placement Services Office was the home of the Career In­ formation Center. Many students considered the Career Informa­ tion Center one of the highlights of the office. Books, files, and video presentations were avail­ able to teach students about ca­ reer fields, employers, how to look for a job, how to interview, and even how to dress for an in­ terview. "I wish I would've used the Placement Services before stopping at the Summer Employment Fair. When I opened the door of the Union and saw all of the navy suits, I was so em­ barrassed of my khakis I went back home," Simeon Filipof, Busi­ ness sophomore said. Also available at the Career In­ formation Center were lists of MSU graduates, their majors, and where they became employed. This can be an eye opener for some. They realized that their major offer them a wide variety of choice for employment. "I went in the office thinking that my only opportunities for a job pertained to the teaching of geography," Maria Leary, a geog­ raphy senior said. "I found out that with a little extra pizazz I could even be the Ambassador to Denmark." Landing the perfect job in­ volved more than just four years of college and an interview at the end. Learning about careers, companies, and employers prior to the interview was an impor­ tant step in one's search for employment. "The best people don't get the best jobs. The people that get the best jobs are the ones who go about it the right way," Mr. Shingleton, Director of Placement Services, said. Students that were more pre­ pared for an interview were less nervous. But even the prepared interviewees could not help feeling nervous sitting in a room full of clones that were compet­ ing for the same job. Sometimes you couldn't hide your nervous­ ness no matter how confident you felt. "I wasn't nervous, but I had sweat rolling down my ears and I couldn't stop it," Tom Wennerberg, a well-prepared marketing senior said. There is a lot to be learned be­ fore an interview and before en­ tering your career. The Place­ ment Services Office is the place to learn-it's more than just an adventure, it's a job. “Tenley Ysseldyke WHEN REJECTION WASN'T SO BAD It was time for the mail to arrive. While one Spartan anxiously awaited to hear good news from an employ­ er, another hoped for rejection letters. He already landed two jobs and hoped for rejection letters from the rest of the companies because this meant more free shots at Crunchy's Restaurant and Bar. To some, interviewing would have been an awful experience, but others looked forward to it. "I can't wait to start interviewing because I'm sure I'll be getting a lot of free shots," said Sarah Torri, Pre­ med sophomore. A spring term tradition, Crunchy's Bar offered stu­ dents one free shot of their choice upon presentation of a rejection letter. Students loved this idea. "Rejection letters are the worst from companies you're really interested in," Charlie Ploughman, a busi­ ness junior said. "But if you get rejected on a Friday afternoon from a company you didn't care much about anyway, it's kind of nice to look forward to that free shot at Crunchy's." To some, a rejection letter was a learning experi­ ence. They realized what went wrong in the interview, and hoped to improve on their mistakes next time. "Since everything comes to those who wait, it's nice to know that at Crunchy's you could have fun while you waited for the right placement to come along," Janne Laren, a Landscape Horticulture senior said. Some took rejection letters personally. "A rejection letter can make you feel as if you've made a fool of yourself," said Pat Murphy, communi­ cations senior. "At least at Crunchy's they don't make you think you've done a permanent job of it." Crunchy's made it easier for Spartans to check their mailboxes spring term.

Clubs Magazine - NAACP - RODEO CLUB - SAILING CLUB NAACP returns after a five-year absence After a five-year ab­ sence, the MSU chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Co­ lored People was reactivat­ ed. "We (several students) were in close contact with the Lansing chapter and they helped us get reorga­ nized/' said president Kim Partee, a communication senior. The 100-member chapter held weekly meet­ ings featuring guest speak­ ers from the University and Lansing. According to Partee, the chapter's goal was to "stress black involvement on campus." The year was highlighted by a "Black Student Move­ ment" program on April 2. The program reflected on the role of black students from the 60's to the cur­ rent day. Partee said although the chapter was just getting started, they have plans to host a mini-conference with other NAACP chapters around the state to ex­ change ideas on how to be more effective, Partee said. — Janis Matheson "It's a good way for men and women to learn how to deal with each other in a competitive, aggressive situation." —Dawn Riley Lake Lansing’s Sailors The MSU Sailing Club/ Team had one of it's best years due to increased membership, many regattas across the nation, and several activities and special events. The Club has approxima­ tely 125 members with about 25 active racers. Lo­ cated on Lake Lansing, the Sailing Club has quite an as­ sorted fleet of boats: ten flying Juniors, two new Lansers, two Windsurfers, a Hobie Cat, two Fireballs, a Cadette, a Flying Scot, and an O'Day. Recently the Club purchased ten new suits of sails. MSU students and peo­ ple in the community can learn to sail and practice rac­ ing on weekday afternoons or may go to out-of-town regattas on the weekends. The Sailing Team attends an average of 15 regattas per term. MSU also hosts regat­ tas such as the Cedar Fest Regatta in the fall, held con­ currently with the Cedar Fest party, and the annual spring MSU Bi-Sex Classic followed by a pig roast and a promis­ ingly wild party. Despite the weather, the MSU Sailing Club continues activities through the winter such as ice boating, movies, speakers, and bar nights. While the Club is student governed with an executive committee, Gibb Hocking, the Board of Trustees Presi­ dent, is always a great help. This year MSU raced in the fall national champion­ ships, the Timme Angsten Memorial Regatta held in Chicago, and claimed the MCSA title.

Six Feet Deep Although dishpan hands may have never before been one of the hazards of playing chess, the condition was only one problem en­ countered by members of MSU's Scuba Diving Club. When club members jumped in their special tank September 24 they had one goal in mind - to establish a 40-hour world's record for playing chess underwater. The stunt organized by for­ mer club president Bob Strack and club adviser Bob LaPrad, was originally devised to stimulate interest in the club and expose peo­ ple to scuba diving. The divers began their quest for the record Septem­ ber 24 in a reconstructed manure bin filled with water, diver Tim Korcall said. "The diving tank was placed at the west side of the football stadium so stu­ dents exiting registration would get curious and show interest in joining the scuba diving club," current club president George Har­ rison said. But he added that the question many spectators asked was "Why are they doing that?" After two days of setting up the tank and filling it with approximately 3000 gallons of water, eager members-wearing wet suits to control body tempera­ tures and keep the body comfortable- began playing chess. But even though the divers tried to meet their goal, cold tem­ peratures hampered their attempt and kept their underwater exploits to a six hour adventure. According to Korcall, diffi­ culties began to arise when night approached as the wa­ ter temperature fell to almost 50 degrees-raising the risk of hypothermia. Players ex­ perienced difficulties moving their fingers and were forced to abandon the record just six hours after they began, he said. "It was disappointing that we couldn't hit the 40-hour mark," club vice-president Scott Walker said. "I'm really happy that we got people interested in the club. Hope­ fully we improved on our chess game." "It was a lot of fun," Kor­ call said. "The visibility was poor though. You could cheat by taking pieces off the board." Another club goal was to raise club membership by 10 from their current roster of 30, Harriss said. But reason­ ing behind the type of stunt was not as specific. "There is an underwater violin playing record," Harriss said. "Why not underwater chess?" "People always tell me It is something I've always wanted to do.' But then they never get around to actually going diving." The divers, aiming to es­ tablish a 40-hour record, hoped to create something that other groups nationwide could try to top, he said. — Mike llich RECORD ATTEMPT.

Preparing for Greek Week meant not only daily practices for the teams of paired fraternities and sororities, but it was a ma­ jor goal the councils kept in mind throughout the year. As the week neared, orga­ nization was turned over to selected chairmen for every aspect of the event. Once competition was underway, teams contend­ ed for points and the title of Greek Week victors in rigorous games ranging from the youthful Musical Chairs to the more sophisticated Beer Chug. Perhaps talent for such events was inborn, but it was practice which would mark a team's performance of a cheerleading routine in Stepshow before an audi­ ence. However, the highlight of Greek Week didn't require the sportsmanship of col­ lege students, but of chil­ dren competing for the same thrill of victory in the Special Olympics. Using the $2700 raised by Greeks earlier in the year and do­ nations of local businesses, the Greeks provided lunch for the 500 children and as­ sisted 100 area coaches in running the games. Kelly Dean, a principal of one of the participating schools de­ scribed the event as the most dynamic Special Olympics held in Michigan. Although seventy-five points were awarded to each house with 40 percent or more members involved in the Olympics, it was not the only reason for participating. Special Olym­ pics co-organizer Ellen Pangmen said, "Houses have a lot more people show up than is required since after working on it the year before, you get such a great feeling you want to go back!" — Lori Tomek LIVELY CHEERS.

While fellow students were still sunning them­ selves at home, cheerleaders re­ turned to school to perfect their gymnastic stunts long before presenting their skills to the crowds. For Publishing Experience The Red Cedar Review, a bi-annual magazine of the literary arts, is a local journal compiled and published by MSU students. Three senior editors and ten staff editors read poetry and fiction entries from around the na­ tion and the world. In its 23rd year, Red Cedar Re­ view is one of the longest running small press maga­ zines in the country. After seven months of prepara­ tion, the latest issue of Red Cedar Review will be pub­ lished and on sale in May 1986. Approximately eight to ten students evaluated and discussed nearly 700 entries of poems and short stories, and finally selected 30 pieces to comprise the May '86 issue of Red Cedar Review. Artwork supple­ menting the literature in the Review is also done by MSU students. The journal has about 150 subscribers with a circulation of 300 and print­ ing of 450 copies. Although it is created by students, Pro­ fessor Michael Lopez serves as an advisor on the Red Ce­ dar Review staff. Senior edi­ tor Judy Hartje stated that working on the Red Cedar Review "was a tremendous opportunity for people to learn about publishing; both for people to get works published and for editors to gain experience in publishing." Related to the Red Cedar Review is the annual Jim Cash/Red Cedar Review Creative Writing Contest, offering monetary prizes and possible publication. The contest, held spring term, is open to all MSU students and is judged first by English Department professors, and finally by an external judge, usually a re­ nowned Michigan writer. Founded in the fall of 1985 by Review staff members, the English club sponsored many activities through the past year. Eng­ lish Club is open to all MSU students and allows English majors to become acquainted with English professors through events such as mixer parties. The English Club had a Guy Fawkes Day picnic with British exchange students and they plan to make this an annual event. While it is newly formed, the English Club is growing and offers a variety of opportunities and experiences for Michi­ gan State students. — Heather Russell Gospel on Campus Headlines in 1986 may have looked bleak to most students, but the members of Maranatha Christian Fellowship were not dis­ mayed. They believe the Bi­ ble has the prescription for all the ills of modern society. Determined to show that the gospel of Jesus Christ is relevant to the issues facing college students, Maranatha's campus preachers engaged in a new question and an­ swer format. Public discus­ sions at the Wells Hall plaza in the fall and spring attract­ ed crowds of up to 200 or more. Once again the perform­ ing arts were used in con­ junction with preaching to show the gospel on campus. Morning Star and Company, Maranatha's dance, drama and mime team, greatly ex­ panded it's membership and Clubs MAGAZINE - MARANTHA - AAF - THE REVIEW Advertising Experience on a National Level Unknown by many, yet worthy of recognition is a group of advertising stu­ dents representing MSU in the American Advertising Federation campaign com­ petition. Each year the AAF organizes an advertis­ ing competition held at re­ gional and national levels among universities nationwide. The competition is sponsored by a client for whom the students create a campaign to market the client's product. This year students are advertising for Levi Strauss. Approximately 165 colleges and universi­ ties participate in this event in fifteen different regions. The winner of each regional meet then continues on to the na­ tional competition. The teams compete in presenting the best adver­ tising campaign to Levi Strauss, judged by categories such as creativity, media, and sales promotion. Michigan State's team had an eight member ex­ ecutive committee with about fifty additional stu­ dents working on the project as well as a pro­ fessor who oversees all operations. The Executive Committee consists of five head directors and three assistants. John Lynn, an MSU junior and Assistant Account Executive and Media Director, explained that working on the cam­ paign provides excellent experience in advertising because students "take classroom knowledge and apply it to the real world." While all aspects of the campaign are important, Lynn stated that "the big thing is presenting it to the client" since the ultimate "aim (is) to win the account" whereby the cli­ ent, Levi Strauss, might im­ plement the students' pro­ posals. -Heather Russell IN PRAISE. Demonstrating the purpose of Thanksgiving to area international students, Maranatha members gave a dance/drama performance, "The Prodigal Son." and campus organizations participated in the fund- raising event, and part of the proceeds were donated to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Maranatha members not only share the gospel at MSU, but around the world as well. In June the Ministry sent out more missions than ever to Ireland, the Philip­ pines, Korea, Japan, Hong Kong, Jamaica, Holland, Venezuela, and Canada. — Donna Lussier repertoire this year. Classes were held weekly to train new members and create new pieces to perform on campus and at other services and events. In perhaps one of their busiest years ever, Mara- natha sponsored a host of other activities. These in­ cluded a Thanksgiving din­ ner for International stu­ dents, movies such as Jesus and The Cross and the Switchblade, and numerous guest speakers such as Rosey Grier. The church was also more actively in­ volved in pro-life campaign­ ing than in previous years. Residence hall bible studies were another key part of Maranatha's campus out­ reach. On April 26 the fellowship held its second annual Great State Spring Run at Jenison Fieldhouse. This jogathon was held to raise money for the pur­ chase of a community/ campus outreach center.

Stressing conservation Hosting the Midwest Wildlife Conclave at the Kellogg Biological Station was a successful accom­ plishment for the Fisheries and Wildlife Club. The conference, which had 146 people from various universities in attendance, heard speeches on the Department of Natural Resources Moose Lift, the Kirkland Warbler Reservation and a speech on the ecology of the Canada Goose. Other topics included the Lake Superior Submersible trip conducted by MSU Pro­ fessor William Cooper last summer. Submarines were used to look at the bottom of Lake Superior, which was never before explored in detail. Besides hosting the con­ clave, the club achieved many other goals. Accord­ ing to club president, Jim McGraff, "The Fisheries and Wildlife Club wanted to share current information regarding conservation aspects in the field of Fish­ eries and Wildlife through fieldtrips and guest speak­ ers." Trips included going canoeing, going to Rose Lake Wildlife Reservation area, taking backpack trips and going camping. On March 14-16, the club hosted a Fisheries and Wildlife quiz-bowl at MSU. Ten other universities par­ ticipated. Members had the chance to socialize and to learn about career opportunities. "We wanted to inform members of internships and job opportunities in the field," said McGraff. "We also wanted to provide so­ cial events for students and faculty to get to know each other better." The club sponsored barbeques and potlucks to bring members closer together. — Draga Bakmaz Clubs MAGAZINE - ANR CLUBS - FISHERIES / WILDLIFE - AMA SKI HONORS.

The voice of the business community One of the more active organizations on MSU's campus, the American Mar­ keting Association, has reached new heights this year and Marketline, the or­ ganization's magazine, has been along for the successful climb. Currently there are about 300 members in the organi­ zation and more are ex­ pected to join this year, which would push the total up to 400, said AMA's president and retail market­ ing student Mike Holland. AMA is in the top four percent of the nation's mar­ keting associations. It spon­ sors both publications and activities such as a suntan contest held at a local night club. Market Quarterly and Best and Worst of MSU as well as a resume book collection that contains the resumes of MSU Economics and marketing students that is sent out to Fortune 500 companies, Holland added. However, one of AMA's well-known contributions to MSU is Marketline. Marketline is the "voice of the business communi­ ty," said Marketline editor Eric Benderoff. The magazine is targeted for business, communica­ tion and journalism stu­ dents. In addition, it serves as an outlet for future jour­ nalists to write stories that could be later used for a portfolio. Tom Wennerberg, a journalism major who frequently contributed arti­ cles to Marketline, believes that between AMA and Marketline, the magazine is the better organization of the two. "It looks good on a resume," Wennerberg said. In the future, Marketline plans to run stronger con­ tent, maintaining the readers' inter­ est and gaining further indepen­ dence from out­ side organiza­ tions, Bender­ off said. -Cara Boeff Coalition fights porn Too see or not to see pornography on campus? If members of the Coali­ tion Against Pornography on campus had their way, the 1986 school year would have marked the end of showing X-rated films at MSU. However, the goals of the coalition was not simply to stamp out pornography. "The goal of our organi­ zation is as educational as it is political," graduate stu­ dent Jonathan Robie, a coordinator for the coalition said. "We have also done legal research on policy concerning the use of stu­ dent funds for the showing of pornography." According to Robie, one of the major things that psychological research has shown is that pornography leads to sexual agression. "That's obvious if you just take a look at pornog­ raphy," he said. "It's de­ grading to women." During the year, the coalition's more than 20 coordinators organized pro­ tests as large as 150 people. The group protested against X-rated movies shown by Revolver Cinema and Box Office Spectaculars in Wells Hall and other places on campus.

"I am the biggest thing over there (PAC)," the mother duck, Dennis McReynolds said. As a result of his size, McReynolds sometimes misses out on roles. This is not true of the "Team-of- Four" program which is the group within the group that produced "The Ugly Duckling." The Team of Four is precisly that. The group consists of four MSU stu­ dents who present educa­ tional story theatre in Lansing Public Schools. This program is just one part of the many faceted PAC. In the Team of Four, it is the best person who gets the part —male or female, short or tall. These shows are geared Clubs MAGAZINE - COALITION AGAINST PORN - PERFORMING ARTS CO.

"Kids are really your best critics," McReynolds said. "Kids will talk about you right there." One of their shows, "Metric," was performed at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. The students who partici­ pate in the program are chosen from an open audi­ tion on campus, as are all the actors in PAC produc­ tions. The term "open" au­ dition is stressed by Dr. John Baldwin. Baldwin is the director of the Team of Four program. "Anything we do (PAC) is open to any student in the University," Baldwin said. "Unknowns will sometimes walk off with parts, to the theatre student's anger." The Team of Four players are paid $40 a day from a grant to the theatre depart­ ment from Lansing Public Schools. There is also a similar state-wide tour. Between the two, the program is the second largest money maker in the PAC. from its spring musical at the Wharton Center. This year's musical was "A Fun­ ny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum." The PAC exists for the classics but maintains a four-to-one ratio per sea­ son with popular shows such as "Forum." "You can't build an audi­ ence just with the classics," Baldwin said. The PAC is the blanket name for the production wing of MSU's theatre de­ partment and originated in the early 60's to lift the quality of theatre on the MSU campus. It started out entirely made up of gradu­ ate students. Now it is made up of both graduate and undergraduate stu­ dents.' In the past, the PAC has done such productions as "No Place to be Some­ body." This classic play, starring McReynolds in the lead, was one of the first black plays leveled on a predominately white campus. A lot of controver­ sy was raised when the script required McReynolds to kiss a white girl. The largest share of revenue for the PAC comes The company includes technicians, costume peo­ ple, scenery technicians, as well as actors. The actual number of people involved is hard to estimate as it fluctuates throughout the season with the different shows. Basically, "members are determiend now by who gets complimentary tickets (to shows)," Baldwin said. It is the money earned from these productions which makes some of the other PAC projects possi­ ble. Among these other projects are the cabaret shows at MSU's Union, where actors wander from table to table in the dinner theatre singing their wares. Entirely run by students, the New Arena Theatre (NAT) has it's own board of directors, while the Summer Circle Free Festival allows students paid summer stock experience. When referring to those people who make up the PAC, McReynolds said, "Theatre people are differ­ ent. There is a lot of love there, a lot of family." — Laurie Druckenmiller ASMSU fights Apartheid The Coca-Cola Co. boycott was successful in increasing people's aware­ ness of apartheid, the poli­ cy of racial segregation and discrimination of the South African government, the ASMSU chairperson said. Although she hoped peo­ ple would boycott Coke, increasing awareness was the goal of the boycott, Zinta Arums said. "Coke was chosen because of the student's limited buying power," said Brian Ivory, ASMSU campus affairs director. "The success of the issue itself carried an awareness that when students bought Coke products, they were supporting a corporation that supports the economic stability of the apartheid government in South Afri­ ca." A spokesman from the Coca-Cola Co., however, said that the company was opposed to apartheid and considered itself a positive force for change in South Africa. He cited several pro­ grams including an equal opportunity fund of about $10 million to support bet­ ter education housing, and increased business oppor­ tunities. "Any void that was left in the marketplace would be quickly filled by other com­ panies, not necessarily U.S. companies," he added. These companies did not offer the same kind of posi­ tive programs, he said. Coca-Cola also per­ formed internal audits and the employees seemed per­ fectly happy, he said. "To leave is to leave these people without jobs," he said. Charles Gagliano, manager of MSU's residence halls, said that there was not any noti­ ceable decrease in Coke use in the halls. ASMSU has also spon­ sored several other anti­ apartheid programs which included a $6,000 "Apart­ heid is Wrong" campaign, Ivory said. Any registered student organization was eligible for the funds which were to be used for more education awareness programs, a statewide conference on apartheid, and a benefit concert, he added. Another issue targeted by ASMSU was the $500,000 MSU Student Foundation divestment from companies in South Africa, Ivory said. The Foundation's board of directors, which included MSU administrators and trustees approved the resolution that allowed the investments in December 1985. -Kimberly Krapff CROSS CARRYING.

Likewise, across campus other victims, either abducted or just misled, were heading for the same ultimate destination as Schrick. Another trait each shared was that they were recently accepted by Mortar Board or Tower Guard. It was at 6:30 a.m. that each finally discovered they had been deceived by friends in or­ der to gather at Beaumont Tower for an unusual initiation. After overcoming the early morning shock, the initiates were greeted by their parents and Presi­ dent DiBiaggio who were present for a ceremony and breakfast to honor the group. Once they were part of these prestigious honor so­ cieties, the pranks lessened and members were asked to demonstrate their com­ munity service, leadership, and scholarship abilities for which the sparse group were chosen. Mortar Board actively pursued their distinguished reputation by helping with the WKAR auction, DiBiaggio's inaugu­ ration, and ushering for plays. — Lori Tomek CROP walks for hunger The Ethiopian famine in­ creased awareness of the hunger that existed in poorer countries, but the MSU Hunger Coalition ex­ tended the continued crusade for local hunger and within the U.S. as well. In order to raise funds for natural disaster assistance, African water projects, and food for Michigan residents, the group concentrated their publicity campaign on the annual 10km CROP walk on April 20. The 100 walkers collected sponsors or contributed $5, enough for a blanket, before they began their march in the rain. Though there were the same number of participators as the previous walk, they failed to top the $2500+ goal. Publicity chairperson Joann Aiello said, "The weather was a damper, we really believe more people would have come out had it not rained —but overall we were pleased." — Lori Tomek From lighting Apartheid and world hunger ti sailing on Lake Lansing, MSU students could easily find a club or organization to fit their needs. With over 340 registeredstudent organiztions on campus,Clubs Magazine has tried to cover a diverse range of the school's many activities. Groups expressing interest, by answering The Red cerdar Log's contact letter, were covered. The hectic days From the first hellos to preference and bid days, two thousand women and men chose to explore the Greek System first­ hand through Sorority and Fraternity Rush. Format changes helped to make Sorority Rush a better ex­ perience for both rushees and actives. The Panhellenic Council spread out party times from two to three days. Rush started earlier, and didn't extend as far into school time according to Danae Walsh, Panhellenic Council Vice President of membership development. A new Color Rush booklet gave rushees helpful in­ formation on each house and the system. Another change for this year was the Sorority Rush Kick-off, held at the auditorium. "The slideshow at kickoff got people fired up for Rush, and made you want to be Greek," said Walsh. Rush proved to be a busy time for those involved. "It was a hec­ tic time because it started the day we got up to school. We never really had tie to move in and it was hard to get to know people on my floor in the dorm who were actives," said Becky Miller, Sigma Kappa freshman. Actives and rushees were supposed to avoid one another outside of Rush, as not to influence house choices. "It made it difficult to get organized and feel settled at first, but I am very happy that I did go through it," said Miller. One night of heavy rain was another obstacle to women rushing. "It poured, and we had to walk to the houses, and even though we had umbrellas, we all got soaked and spashed by cars," said Miller. "When we walked around in the houses, our feet squished, our makeup and "You meet a lot of people from all differ­ ent houses, and even if you don’t pledge their house, or pledge at all, you’ve made new friends through Rush." —Stephanie Stannick hair was a mess, but we made the best of it even though the rain made it harder to rush." Actives in houses spent long hours in bid sessions deciding which rushees should be members. "Bid sessions get intense, but you learn to trust your sisters," said Barbie Howell, Sigma Kappa sophomore. "It's a long process but we have to thoroughly consider each rushee because it matters to everyone who is going to be in the house." Some sororities chose to hold Rush in the winter, in addition to the major fall Rush. "A lot of girls are apprehensive about rushing in the fall, especially freshmen and transfer students. But, by winter term when they know more of what the Greek System is about they are ready to pledge a house. That's why we hold a winter Rush," said Paula Coker, Phi Mu sophomore. Compared to the sororities, Fraternity Rush is a less structured program. Instead of seeing every house as the women do, men chose the houses they wished to rush. "It's very casual. You meet the guys in the house and decide if the atmosphere is right for you," said Jim Carls, Sigma Alpha Epsilon sophomore. After three nights of open Rush, fraternities invite prospec­ tive members back for closed Rush. Even though Fraternity Rush is more laid back, bid sessions are no less intense, sometimes going until 6 am. "Patiences are tried and nerves are shot, but the long hours and the amount of effort put into them reflect a house's concern to continually strengthen their brotherhood," said Steve Rotta, Psi Upsilon sophomore. The preparation for Rush could be as busy as Rush itself. "It isn't just a one week per term affair. Rush chairmen start work on the next term's Rush as soon as the current term's bids are extended. It's common to spend your vaca­ tions taking care of the many re­ sponsibilities of Rush," said Rotta. For the men this meant putting up posters, making calls and sending out invitations to pro­ spective rushees. For next year, Panhellenic Council plans to in­ vest money in a summer mailer, that will inform more women of Rush. According to Walsh, "We hope that more people will enroll for Rush next fall." Although it requires many hours of time commitments from rushees and actives alike, the Rush system accomplishes its goals. Men and women find houses that fit their personalities and needs, and the growing Greek System gets stronger in numbers. Even if those who rush decide not to pledge a house, new friends are made. Chi Ome­ ga sophomore Stephanie Stannick said, "You meet a lot of people from all different houses, and even if you don't pledge their house, or pledge at all, you've made new friends through Rush. — Phil Peters Photos by Therese Nolan IN THE FIRST PHASE, Rushees spent time in each of the 16 sorority houses, forming opinions about which house is right for them. Actives of Kappa Delta sorority welcome Rushees to the first 15 minute party. Of the 1,000 women that went through Fall rush, 37 pledged Kappa Delta. WHAT'S YOUR SIGN? While fraternity signs lined both Farm Lane and the walkway at Wells Hall, some fraternities chose to advertise for Rush in different ways.

The floor was home to many members of MSU sororities who lived out-of-house. Many of the women were in a frenzy preparing for the night's activities. After all, it was Rush Formal Saturday —the day that marked the end of Rush and kicked off a term of activities for the Greek system. "Rush formals are frustrating because they are so last-minute, but they are fun because they get everyone fired up for the term's activities," said Ellen Brennan, a Kappa Kappa Gamma junior. "Everyone is cool about lending clothes and they always help each other get dressed. It brings out unity." Rush formals, term parties and Thursday "after-hours" provided Greeks with chances to party to­ gether in both formal and infor­ mal settings. However, parties were just the beginning of Greek activities. All of the chapters had a philanthro­ py—a cause in which they raised money and performed special tasks for. For instance, the men of Psi Upsilon held a Christmas party on "Philanthropies make it all worthwhile. It is a way to help the com­ munity you live in and feel good about it." Stacey Hanley Dec. 6 for children from the Beekman House for the mentally retarded. The children received presents and visited with Santa. "We decorated the tree to­ gether and sang songs," Psi Upsilon sophomore Dave Robb said. "Then Santa came down. He handed out bags of candy and the kids got to sit on his lap and talk to him. It was a neat ex­ perience." Many Greek houses were in­ volved in helping the physically handicapped. Logopedics, philanthropy of Kappa Alpha Theta sorority, helped the speech and hearing impaired. "Each spring term we hold a 'Mr. Sexy Legs' contest at Sensations," Kappa Alpha Theta sophomore Claire Wesley said. "We invite men from all over campus to participate and all the profits go to Logopedics. Also, some of our chapter dues go to our philanthropy." "Philanthropies make it all worth while," Delta Gamma Stacey Hanley said. "It is a way to help the community you live in and feel good about it. It helps people that are less fortunate than you are, and makes you feel grateful for what you have." As a preview to spring term's Greek Week, "M-TV Bar Night" was held at Sensations. Each so­ rority competed with a lip-sync act for points that would later count during Greek Week. Mon­ ey raised went to Students Against Multiple Sclerosis (SAMS). Acts ranged from Alpha Gam­ ma Delta's mime rendition of "Rock Me Amadeus" to Zeta Tau Alpha's "Macho Man" to Sigma Kappa's "Time Warp." "We put a lot of work into it, but it was worth it. We made people laugh and we raised mon­ ey for SAMS," said Sigma Kappa sophomore Jody Page. From the hectic times getting ready for formals to activities that raised money for the less fortu­ nate, MSU's Greeks found them­ selves always busy. The commu­ nity benefitted, and the Greeks prepared themselves for the year's largest event, both socially and for philanthropy; Greek Week. -Phil Peters and Beth Koehler Photo by Jeff Rollins LIP-SYNC LADIES.

After the sixteen hour bus ride, the band participated in a mixer/re- ception with the Georgia Tech band, a pep rally at a nearby mall and several rehearsals. The main event was spiced up with the de­ but of new uniforms. A rare opportunity presented itself to the marching band this year. A film, featuring Jim Belushi needed a well-known midwest­ ern college band to be shown during a particular scene and the Spartan Band was chosen. Spar­ tan officials turned down the of­ fer, however, due to the film's "R" rating and suggestive title: "Sexual Perversity in Chicago." They claimed that the movie would not create positive public­ ity for the band. Spartan Brass was a seventy member group that performed at hockey and basketball games. The instrumentation was identical to that of the marching band with the addition of an electric bass, guitar, and drum set. The school of Music offered four concert bands to meet the needs of various students. Dating from 1870, the band program at Michigan State University has es­ tablished an enviable reputation in many areas, growing both in quality and quantity to encom­ pass the entire spectrum of wind and percussion instrument perfor­ mance. The Wind Symphony was comprised of the most outstand­ ing wind and percussion majors in the Michigan State University School of Music. This group was dedicated to the performance of the finest wind repertoire regardless of the period or the disposition of the instrumental forces. The Symphony Band, an orga­ nization of approximately seventy musicians, was selected by audi­ tion from the finest performers on campus. Although most members are music majors, stu­ dents specializing in other fields often qualify for the ensemble. The Concert Band, an eighty piece ensemble selected by audi­ tion, was made up of music ma­ jors and students from other dis­ ciplines. Members of this band perform a wide variety of literature selected from the finest repertoire available. The Repertory Band, a seventy member group, offered non-mu- sic majors an avenue to continue making music throughout their college careers. The enthusiasm of this band has always enabled its members to achieve musical results with challenging literature while taking a brief break from the routine and presures of their major disciplines. One of the greatest assets of a diversified and balanced band program is that it nourishes the creative spirit at the level of each player's ability and interest. — Mark Walters Photos by Mary Platt WINTER WALK.

Wavemakers The fast-paced flow of 1986 was propelled by a flood of MSU newsmakers. Waves of controversy and achieve­ ment surrounding MSU were commonplace, proving the year was anything but run-of-the-mill. Ripples of controversy surrounded the 14 members of the precision dance team MSU Motion after the swim-suit clad women posed with male administrators in a now- famous fundraising calendar. Though less notorious, mainstream MSU students tallied 41,032 during fall term, up from 1984. MSU boasted 9,600 freshmen, 7,736 sophomores, 8,095 juniors and 7,288 seniors. Graduate students and professionals numbered 7,815. 98 Mainstream students had concerns, and worried about parking. A whirlpool of controversy flooded the Uni­ versity's decision to lift the price of parking tickets from $5 to $20. The year was also marked by a wave of con­ cern about U.S.-Soviet relations. About 10,000 stu­ dents signed two holiday greeting cards, one for President Reagan and another for Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev. Inside People November's Ce­ darfest attracted nearly 6000 drun­ ken partiers 124 Gas prices tum­ bled 40% winter term On the home front tides also began to turn. A summer survey of MSU's College of Human Medicine revealed that nearly half of MSU's medical school graduates were women, throwing over­ board the notion that women weren't equal at MSU. Whether MSU newsmakers were administrators, sports figures or controversial, people at MSU were constantly making waves of some kind. It was all part of being into the flow of MSU. — Barb Isaacs photo by La Vern Pennington Expansion on the upswing G roundbreaking was a common word at MSU in 1986 as the addition of several new campus facilities altered the dimensions of Michigan State. Expansion has been an important part of MSU's history, each year adding segments to the traditional beauty and architecture of MSU. This year was no exception. During 1986, plans were aprroved for the construction of several buildings. Three were completed, including Plant and Soil Science, the Football Practice Building and the Indoor Tennis Facility. During 1984, the MSU Board of Trustees approved building proposals for a package of four athletic facilities which included the Football Practice Building the Indoor Tennis Facility, the IM East and the Jack Breslin Student Events Center. The IM East and the Breslin Center are slated for construction during 1987. Following the 1984 approval, 1986 saw the beginnings of progress and signs of things to come. Funds from the state of Michigan allowed for the construction of Plant and Soil Science. However, bonds were issued to MSU which constituted the budget for the athletic package. Controversy sprouted as students learned that in order for the bonds to be repaid, student fees of $1 per credit were to be tacked on at registration. Norman Schleif, MSU associate University architect, said that architectural styles of new buildings are determined according to the function of the building, the budget and the styles of nearby buildings. He said that it is important to maintain harmony in architectural styles on campus. Schleif said that the concept of the 1986 projects were conceived several years before, but took some time to finalize plans, allocate funds and begin construction.

Breitenbach, Parma Food Systems Economics Police and media gear up for Fest; rain dampens bi-annual festivities t began with a few invited guests, but as the evening progressed a I continuous stream of "friends" appeared to join the party. This common campus occurence was a likely introduction of the bi-annual Cedarfests reputed by their large crowds and general unruliness. The festivities were certainly no secret since thousands of students and outsiders gathered in Cedar Village to celebrate the break from grueling midterm studies. Typically, the event escalated from a low key social to a destructive rampage which gave it such notoriety. The party's activities attracted not only many participants, but law enforcement officials, media professionals, and the interest of Guardian Angels as well. Cedar Village management sent letters to residents asking for co-operation in lessening the disorder on their property. Michelle Wachoski, who lived there for two years, said, "The managers asked us to hold only closed parties and not allow cameramen into the apartments. I think the media sensationalized the event and just attracted more people." Yet, photographers still abounded to capture the crowds occasional injuries, bottle throwing, and property destruction. Fortunately, the fall term gathering was noted as less violent in the wake of the previous year's car overturning. Supervising the group's activities, the Department of Public Safety joined East Lansing Police in initiating a few precautionary measures by blocking streets and positioning officers to intervene in the entrance of alcohol- carrying minors. Officer Terry Maye of DPS said, "Most of the participants were juveniles (under 21) from the immediate area and students from other colleges. I found members of the Cedar Village community were attempting to hold down the crowd, but just did not have control." Nature could have been credited for handling the crowd. Freshman Andrea Steward said, "I'm glad it rained during the fall Cedarfest since things were getting out of hand. I'm sure the party would have been more fun in an apartment rather than out in the streets with the huge crowd." Once the last few revelers left, residents in the apartments found that their home had sustained damage ranging in the thousands of dollars. However, many guests, both invited and uninvited, went home knowing that the party was not yet over for themselves. There still remained the recently attained tickets to compensate for their illegal actions of the night before. — Lori Tomek FESTIVAL FEVER.

Butts III, St. Charles Building Construction Management Barbara A. Butzler, Midland Speech Pathology/Audiology Fine hike sends students walking A s parking fines increased up to four times and mopeds were banned on campus, students turned to walking as their best method of transportation. "Fines for about 50 parking violations increased this year for the first time in many," said Capt. Andrew McEntee, assistant to the director of public safety. The fine for students who parked in faculty spaces increased from $5 to $20 and the penalty for having an unregistered car on campus rose from $20 to $50. "Although the increased fines had resulted in a 20 percent decline in issued citation by January, problems still existed," McEntee said. "Despite the drop, four- fifths of the students were still violators,", he said. "And many claimed the new rules were a violation of their rights. They objected to us charging so much for them to consciously break the law." The fines were imposed and approved by the MSU Board of Trustees July 1, but did not go into effect until fall term. The action was to deter students who found it cheaper to pay $5 a day if caught parking in a restricted area rather than pay to park legally. Even if students paid $5 a day each of the 55 days in a term, they would be paying only $275," McEntee said. "Many of them think it is worth it." Jamie T. Buysse, Lansing Education Juli M.

"I used to do it all the time because it was worth the $5," Morrison said. "Now I never do. I don't want to pay a $70 ticket." "The University obviously had a parking problem and a fine increase was necessary," she said, "but I do not think the fines should have been raised so high. They did not have to go overboard." DPS also cracked down spring term by banning mopeds on campus. The department received numerous complaints from students who had been run off the sidewalks by moped riders. With these restrictions, students seemed to find taking the bus or walking better bets. — Jane Stamm PARKING WOES.

Holmes Hall residents promote world peace during holiday season C hristmas is the time of year for promoting peace on Earth and goodwill toward mankind and that is just what residents of Holmes Hall did. Following the Geneva Summit talks in November, the residents decided to construct two 8-by-4 foot greeting cards that were sent to President Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev. The cards, which carried messages of peace to both world leaders, were about 21 pages long and boasted signatures from nearly 12, 000 MSU students, said Bonnie Peterson, Holmes Hall government secretary who came up with the idea to construct the cards. The whole idea started out when I was in may room and had finished watching the summit talks on television," Peterson said. "I mentioned to one of the girls on my floor 'Wouldn't it be nice to send a card?' It started out as a hall project, but later turned into a University project." Construction on the card began immediately after the summit talks and students worked "right up until the last minute" she said. The cards were mailed on Dec. 13. "We had a hard time with the Russian card because we couldn't have any kind of political, racial, or news related drawing on it," Peterson said. "Finally the artist came up with the idea that everyone agreed on and we went on from there." The front of the U.S. card featured a white dove with an olive branch in its mouth, while the Russian card had a drawing of the temple of Sts. Peter and Paul in Russia. To raise public awareness of their project the students sent a national press release through the United Press International to gain coverage for the unveiling of the cards, Peterson said. During the unveiling of the card MSU President John DiBiaggio, Sen. William Sederburg, R-East Lansing, and U.S. Rep. Bob Carr, D-East Lansing each signed the cards. On Christmas Eve Peterson said she received a call from the Soviet Embassy in Washington, D.C. informing her that Gorbachev had seen the card. President and Nancy Reagan sent a thank-you card to the students who had contributed to the card she said. "A lot or people these days don't think students really care about what's going on in the world," Peterson said. "This was our way of saying that we really do care." — Michael llich PEACE GREETINGS.

The DxTer Clinical Simulator system, recently developed by Intelligent Images Inc. of San Diego, Calif., was leased to MSU in January. The system presented simulated room scenarios to enable students to practice for real-life crises. "It's a learning experience whereby the students are forced to make a medical decision while a clock keeps track of time," said Dr. Raywin Huang, a medical assistant professor. "If the student's diagnosis are incorrect, the patient dies," Huang said. Afterward, the computer compares the student's treatment decisions with an expert's, Huang explained. The system also evaluates the health care costs, offers mini courses on topics related to the scenarios, and lists a bibliography of reference material, Huang said. MSU has the software for five emergency room cases including a shotgun wound to the abdomen, a motor vehicle trauma, an abdominal stab wound, a chest trauma, and a patient with diarrhea and vomiting.

In return for the equipment use, MSU researchers will try to develop a testing system for the computer, Huang said. Eventually, the system will most likely be used as a "testing tool for board exams and as a more reliable method of recertifying physicians," Huang said. The clinical simulator is the most advanced system of its kind - it's state-of- the-art," said Dr. Jack Maatch, executive assistant to the College of Human Medicine.

This complex machine, used to find out more about the nucleus, can be used to charge particles to high kinetic energies. In turn, these particles then bombard nuclei in an attempt to find out more about nuclear structures and forces. The National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory on campus, which was founded by the Science Foundation and Department of Energy, had an original accelerator in 1%5 but it was replaced in September of 1982. In came the K500, the world's first superconduction cyclotron whose magnet height was seven feet, two inches. Its diameter measured ten feet and its weight was 100 tons. The University community also had another cyclotron to look forward to, as the K800 cyclotron was scheduled for completion in 1987. "It's due to be completed in September, 1987 —that's the plan. The idea is to inject the K800 with the K500 and the total project will increase energies," said Crawley, a member of the Cyclotron Lab since 1965. Because of its unique features, the K500 proved to be successful and in high demand. According to Crawley, scientists from around the world came to view the cyclotron and to perform experiments on nuclear collisions. The high demand for the use of the accelerator prompted the lab with a staff of 200 itself to allocate time made on the basis of likely significance. As for uniqueness, the K500 had a wire which carried the current for the large electromagnet, The wire contained an alloy called titanium niobium which would lose all resistance to the flow of electricity when it was cooled to -450 F°. In turn, only a small amount of electric energy was required to run the accelerator. A standard cyclotron did not possess these features. In addition, the superconducting cyclotron was nearly half the cost of a standard cyclotron using the same energies. It was clear that the cyclotron had a large effect on scientific research but its other capabilities were not always known. "Basically the main use is to further our understanding of the nuclear forces. In addition there are other purposes such as using radioactive isotopes for biological research," said Crawley. It could also be used to diagnose cancer and destroy cancerous cells to test the utilization of fertilizers in agriculture. — Draga Bakmaz SUPER CYCLOTRON. The K500 superconducting cyclotron at MSU since 1982, is the first of its kind in the world. NUCLEAR MATTERS.

During fall term the University, in conjunction with Olin Health Center orgainzed a four-member informational panel which discussed the tranmissability of AIDS, said Nancy Allen coordinator of health education programs at Olin. "The purpose of the panel was to provide factual information on the transmission of AIDS," she said. "Students need to be informed on issues such as, who's at high risk?, and other issues concerning the disease." According to Allen, Olin Health Center had witnessed an increase in students coming in requesting information about the disease. "We have had students coming to the center asking for information and referral services about the AIDS issue," Allen said. During fall term three different programs were held to educate the University staff about AIDS. A video information was shown to staff members as well as residents, in five residence halls.

Since Hudson's death the availability of information increased and has helped the general public better understand what AIDS really is Allen said. Allen said that information concerning the transmission of AIDS was important in making people better understand how AIDS is transmitted, and decreasing the fears of anxiety over contracting the disease. No cases of AIDS were reported at the University during the 1985-86 school year, Allen said. — Michael llich AIDS AWARENESS.

Although the explosion did show that the space program had some flaws, students still believed in its potential, "If I had the opportunity, I would go up in a space shuttle because it would be a fantastic experience," said hotel, restaurant and institutional managment freshman Hillary Wray. "Just because one thing went wrong shouldn't mean we should stop progress. It was terrible, but even with the one explosion, we still have a good track record." MSU, as well as the rest of the nation, mourned the one of horror and tragedy. "It (the space shuttle tragedy) was a terrible thing to happen," said preveterinary sophomore Dave Manksi. "I wish it could have been prevented, but I don't think we should point a finger at anyone. It was a horrible, awful accident." TRAGEDY HITS HOME. MSU stu­ dents flocked around televisions to watch news coverage that dominated the air on Jan. 28 and continued throughout the week. "Everyone had their T.V. on," said Phil Slocum.

"The report, which was the basis of a recent newspaper article in The Detroit Free Press, was compiled from uniform crime reports compiled and published by the FBI after local police agencies submit data regarding certain types of offenses committed in their area," Lt. Rick Boyd of DPS, said. "MSU has really been number one in terms of crimes reported on campuses for many years, however, these reports don't give the entire picture of how MSU compares to other schools in terms of crimes committed," Boyd said. "Thes reports only cover colleges and universities that have their own police departments and who even bother to report the information to the FBI." According the Boyd, the FBI breaks the reports it receives into two parts. Part one crimes are the more serious crimes such as rape, murder, or aggravated assault and part two crimes are minor crimes. "The reason the MSU has such a high crime rate is because we have a great number of minor thefts committed," he said. "Bicycles which are valued at more then $100 are stolen in great numbers everday. Given the size of the University, the raw numbers contained in the report are not very serious, but make it look like crime is rampant in the form of rapes and murders A high incidence of break-ins gave MSU the second highest crime rate among colleges in the nation. Illustration by Lavern Pennington. which is not true," Boyd said. "In 1984 MSU had a total of 48 violent crimes committed on campus. Of these, 12 were rapes, six were robberies and 30 were aggravated assault. Property crimes and minor thefts accounted for 2,126 reports." "You have to come to realize that there is not a great deal of violent crimes on campus," Boyd said. "What we do have is a serious theft problem as do most other colleges and universities. Even most of these thefts involve roommates or suitemates." "DPS tries to do the best job we can to make this campus a safe place for everybody," Lt. Boyd commented. "But, students voicing their concerns about safety are what get things accomplished. Better lighting conditions, the greenlight campus phone system all came as a result of students pressuring the University," he said. "The high rate of crime is no indication of the quality of job the campus police are doing." DPS Director Dick Bernitt said, "MSU is today and always has been a safe place to be as far as your person goes, however, it is not a safe place to leave your property unattended." — Mike llich Henika-jackson Kristy L.

Hopton, Pittsburgh, PA Telecommunications Nancy Horton, Heslett Social Science Kimball arrest shocks ‘U’ The first serious challenge to MSU President John DiBiaggio's administration arose in the spring when his executive assistant was charged with gross indecency with a male at an area rest stop. David Kimball, who was the only member of DiBiaggio's cabinet to accompany him to MSU from the University of Connecticut, was granted a paid leave of absence from his $58,000-a-year post as DiBiaggio's executive assistant. DiBiaggio was quoted at the time, and said that Kimball's future status at the University depended upon what happens in his case. Gross indecency with a male is a felony charge which carries a possible five-year prison sentence and a possible $2,500 fine. Arrest warrants were issued for Kimball and 41 other men by Judge Thomas Brennan fo the Ingham County District Court on March 18. The warrants were the result of a 10-day monitoring operation of the men's rest room at the Holt rest stop on U.S. 127 in Alaiedon Township. One man was later cleared of all charges. The Michigan State Police and the Ingham County Sheriff's Department monitored the rest room between February 26 and March 8 with concealed video cameras on the strength of a search warrant issued by Brennan. The men were later identified through their license plate numbers. Kimball's March 18 warrant charged him with one count on March 3. At the time the warrant was issued Kimball was in San Diego, Calif. attending a National Association of Governing Boards Continues to page 117 Caroline Horvath, Farmington Hills Marketing Susan J.

He returned from San Diego on March 20 and turned himself over to police for arrest and arraignment. The following week, Kimball requested and was granted an indefinite leave of absence. President DiBiaggio and other administrative officials said they were presuming Kimball's innocence and were content with the leave of absence. Some students, however, seemed to presume his guilt. "When I heard about it I was really ashamed for our school," said audiology and speech junior Michelle Hagy. "MSU has gotten so much bad publicity, then he did this and it's just another black mark against us." Kimball's preliminary hearing on March 31 at the Ingham County District Court was adjourned by Judge Brennan until May 1 on the grounds that attorney's did not have time to adequately prepare their defenses. At Kimball's May 1 preliminary hearing Judge Brannan ruled that he would not hear Kimball's case because of condition which include media over- exposure and questionable evidence gathered by video cameras. Kimball's lawyer, Donald Martin, filed a motion that said the video evidence failed to show or establish that Kimball engaged in any act of gross indecency with a male, and requested that the charges be dropped. Judge Thomas Roberts was scheduled to hear Brennan's cases. -Patricia Hamilton David Kimball Early morning dairy barn blaze kills calves; causes $125,000 damage A n MSU dairy barn went up in smoke in early April, killing eight calves within five minutes after a truck's exhaust fumes caused straw near the barn to ignite. Damage to the facility, lo­ cated on College Road be­ tween Forest & Jolly Roads, was estimated by Animal Science Chairperson May­ nard Hogberg at $125,000. Before the April 9 fire, the 160-by-60-foot barn was used chiefly as a feed and storage unit by the Teach­ ing and Dairy Research Center. The facility housed 35 of the Animal Science Depart­ ment's 260 calves and cows. In addition to the eight calves killed, several other animals were injured. The straw ignited at about 5:49 a.m. and the fire spread rapidly throughout the structure. Firefighters battled the blaze until 7:38 a.m. when MSU officials decided the barn was beyond saving and let it burn down, ac­ cording to East Lansing Fire Marshall Berman Prether. Prether said the fire was difficult to handle because it occurred in a pole barn filled with straw and other highly flammable materials. "The wind was whipping strongly," said Prether, which posed problems in containing the fire. According to Hogberg, the loss of the facility caused no interruption in classes or Animal Science activity. The equipment loss of a tub grinder and a wagon was not major and the excitement of a raging pole barn fire soon turned into a "nagging inconvenience" as the de­ partment continued busi­ ness as usual and reviewed estimates for the replace­ ment of the barn. -Darcie Humphrey UP IN SMOKE.

The court, named "One Union Square," was slated to be opened during Fall 1986. And most students seemed to like the idea. "I think it's a great idea! There were times between classes when I wanted to eat but couldn't make it all the way off campus. The Union's close enough for a quick snack," said business sophomore Simeon Filipof. Dan Maloney, a business sophomore, agreed. "Anything's better than the old Grill or the cafeteria. They picked a good variety so there's something for everyone," Maloney said. The food court gave students more reason to stay on campus. "I live in the dorm and meals aren't provided Sunday nights. Now there is no reason to leave campus for dinner because the Union is so close," said Susan Hays, no-preference sophomore. Some MSU students weren't quite as happy, as the renovation plans plotted a move for the Women's Lounge. The lounge has been in the location in the southeast corner of the first floor for at least 20 years, and a coalition attempted to stop the move. — Barb Isaacs and Tenley Ysseldyke Kelsey-krueger Janice L.

Leippranot, Okemos Accounting Education college tightens standards as teacher shortage boosts enrollment K nowing your ABC's can prove to be profitable in the job mar­ ket. With the recent in­ crease in demand for teachers, 1985-86 gradu­ ates from the College of Education looked forward to larger employment op­ portunities. The MSU placement Services office and those surveyed expect a hiring increase of 1.9 percent for education graduates. "The job market for teachers is improving," said Placement Services Assis­ tant Director Patrick Scheetz. "A big reason for this is the retirement bill passed last year which will have many teachers retir­ ing early." According to Scheetz, 816 new teachers were hired in Michigan in 1982- 83. In 1984 the number in­ creased to 2,535 and Placement Services expects between 4,000 and 4,500 teachers to be hired this year. In the Placement Ser­ vices Follow-Up report for 1984-85, 51 percent of 1984-85 graduates were employed in elementary and secondary schools, and 8 percent found work at colleges and universities. Another 8 percent went on to graduate school, 5 percent were working in medical services, and al­ most 9 percent were seeking employment. The Recruiting Trends study also showed that employers expect to in­ crease starting salaries by 2 percent, up from 1984-85 levels. Graduates weren't the only education students with positive job pros­ pects. Predictions of teach­ er shortages in the future prompted many students to enter teaching pro­ grams. The main cause of these predictions is the op­ tional teacher-retirement program passed by Michi­ gan's Legislature last year. More than half of the state's 90,000 teachers will be eligible for retirement by 1995. "I'm an only child and I love to be around children - I plan to teach third or fourth grade," said no-preference freshman Amy Hale. "Within five years or less there is going to be high demand for (elementary) teachers." Michigan State's teacher education program was flooded with applications from undergraduates dur­ ing the 1985-86 school year. Enrollment in the education school rose 36 percent fall term and 46 percent winter term. Faced with shortages in money and professors necessary to accommodate all the students wishing to enter the teaching program, Michigan State was forced to impose a moratorium on admissions for spring term. MSU officials felt the three-month delay was needed to devise tougher criteria for the teacher­ education program. — Kim Alexander College of Education Total Grads = 795 Total Reports = 560 Source: MSU Placement Services Lemons-marler Antonio D.

Loyer, Ann Arbor Telecommunications Students fill up for less A s gas prices continued to tumble through winter and spring terms, students enjoyed the lower prices that gave them a little more cash in their pockets. Students who drove to spring break destinations were able to arrive there for less. "I could fill my car for less than $10," said Tom Faricy, advertising sopho­ more. "The lower gas prices saved us at least $50 on our whole trip to Florida. I was able to spend more money on clothes when we went shopping in Miami." Some students planned weekend roadtrips to take advantage of the lower gas prices. "We went up north to the cottage with a bunch of people from my dorm," said Peter McGreevy, business sophomore. "It was great just to get away for a weekend and relax. It was also a lot less expensive because gas was so cheap," said McGreevy. For business sophomore, Jim Carls, the price drop in gas made trips back home to Buffalo, New York, less expensive. "It really did not influence how often I went home, but it made the trip a lot cheaper," said Carls. "But it did influence how often I used the car for oth­ er things. It also made our trip for spring break cheaper." — Phil Peters Mary Lynn Lozowski, East Lansing Physiology Robert P.

Presidental residence gets face-lift W ith the arrival of a new president, MSU's presidential manor also received a new look. Cowles House under­ went $225,000 to $250, 000 worth of renovations, the first major renovations in history. The renovations came after a request to refurbish the mansion came from the president's office, said President's Club coordina­ tor Jim McIntyre. The remodeling included the entire downstairs area, most of the upstairs and landscaping for the grounds and gardens, said director of design services Joy Adcock. The foyer, living room, sun room, dining room, formal dining room, the president's room and six bedrooms were all remod­ eled, Adcock said. "The house has never been totally refurbished," Adcock said. "We make some renovations every­ time we get a new presi­ dent, depending on the president and their family's personal taste and needs." Money for the renova­ tion project was raised through private contribu­ tions from alumni and vari­ ous corporations, McIntyre said. "We didn't want to use public funds for the project, so we developed the Cowles House Society in September to raise the money," he said. "Eighty percent of the renovations should be complete by the fall of 1986." McIntyre said the house badly needed renovations because many of the fur­ nishings either belonged to former MSU President Cec­ il Mackey, or were pur­ chased by him. There has been a trend among universities to ren­ ovate the president's resi­ dence, returning to a classic 18th Century look, McIntyre said. "The classic style should appeal to all tastes and will stay forever," Adcock said. The classic style will be appropriate to both the setting of the house and the campus, McIntyre said. — Janis Matheson SILENT STUDY. Using a classic­ style decor, renovations were planned to appeal to all tastes in order to provide longevity for the changes. PRESIDENTIAL DINING. With funding from private contributions raised by the Cowles House Society, $225-250,000 was spent refurbishing many areas of the president's home, including the dining room.

"We're committed to having a high female and minority enrollment," Far­ quhar said. The medical school's mi­ nority enrollment is 18-20 percent, Ullrey said. Women are attracted to MSU because they will be welcome here, Farquhar said. "We have been striv­ ing for 20 years (since the College of Human Medicine opened) to make MSU a McKNIGHT-MOORE place where everyone is welcome. "We orient an admissions policy that attracts wom­ en," Farquhar said. "The faculty supports women and we offer special ser­ vices that cater to women's needs." One such program is the educational support program for spouses of women training to be doctors, Farquhar said.

But these hopes were dashed following the worst nuclear accident in history at Chernobyl, a nuclear reactor located 80 miles north of Kiev. Following the meltdown, the Soviet government withheld the information from the rest of the world for approximately 36 hours. It was not until Swedish scientists detected unusually high amounts of radiation in the atmosphere that the Russians were forced to reveal the nuclear disaster. Other details were left to the capabilities of experts outside the Soviet Union to piece together. Using satellite pictures, they pinpointed the unknown site to a location near the Ukraine capital of Kiev. The death toll was speculated to be between 2-2,000. A radioactive cloud was detected in most of Western Europe and as far as 1,000 miles to Scandinavia. According to an article in Time magazine, the Soviets had fallen behind in technology in the area of nuclear energy and had showed less concern for safety precautions at nuclear plants. The Chernobyl plant lacked a containment structure which prevented the release of radioactivity and averted a large-scale disaster at Three Mile Island in Pennsylvania. As a result of the high levels of radiation, authorities in several European countries banned the sale of milk and freshly picked vegetables. Swedish scientists projected up to 8,000 additional cases of cancer to be reported throughout Europe due to the effects of radioactive fallout. Because of the drastic health risks posed by the high levels of radioactivity, many people who had planned on traveling abroad this summer had second thoughts about making the trip.

Advertising sen­ ior Wayne Wudyka, owner of the Dog Pound Coney Island, ran for a seat in the Michigan House. Students seek State House seats ome students do nothing but attend classes while at Michigan S State. And then there are others. Seniors Wayne Wudyka and Bob Gardella are shining examples of the others. Both are widely involved in extracurricular activities and they have one major thing in common: both are running for seats in the state House of Representatives. Wudyka, a Republican and owner of the Dog Pound Coney Island Restaurant on Grand River ran for State Rep. against incumbent Democrat, Lynn Jondahl. Between campaigning and managing The Dog Pound, both full-time jobs, Wudyka has little time for anything else. "I only sleep about three hours each night," said the 21-year old advertising senior. "It's amazing what you can do when you don't sleep. I stick to a definite plan and budget my time well." Wudyka, who has been politically active since he was young, decided to run for office because "there is a need in the Capitol for a fresh change concerning education, our business climate, and jobs." Bob Gardella, a journalism major who graduated in March of 1986, also has political experience under his belt. The founder of the Michigan State Times was an aide to Sen. Alan Cropsey, R-Dewitt, for three years. This experience had led him Feminists label Motion calendar Sexist f one word could describe this year's season for MSU Motion, it I would have to be commotion. Early in the fall, the group came under fire from various women's groups who charged that the pom pon squad's 1986-87 calendar was "sexist." The 16-month calendar featured fully clothed, male University figures such as President John DiBiaggio, football coach George Perles and economics professor C. Patric "Lash" Larrowe photographed with bathing-suit clad members of Motion. News of the scandal prompted front page headlines in the Detroit Free Press and campus newspaper The State News, as well as an inside feature in the Dec. 2 issue of the national magazine People Weekly. Although the controversy was highly publicized, members of the squad said that they never expected so much attention. "We were a little shocked at the extent of the media coverage," said Wendy Hoenes, an art education junior and member of Motion. "The press really made a bigger deal than it really was. We thought it was a small matter blown totally out of proportion." The calendar was intended as a fundraiser aimed toward raising money for new uniforms for the squad. According to Hoenes the controversy had no negative effect on the squad's performance. "It (the controversy) really brought the squad closer together and we got to know each other a lot better," she said. "It didn't have any negative effect on us performing as a squad." "If anything, the media had good effects on us," Hoenes said. "People all of Phillips-rajter Jacqueline Phillips, Detroit Merchandising Management Jane Phillips, Farmington Hills Nursing Billie T.

Rajter, Warren Special Education Calendar labeled sexist a sudden knew who we were, we got more exposure and in the long run we sold more calendars to raise money for new uniforms." Although Motion members refused to disclose the actual profit the calendar produced, a spokeswoman and member of Motion who asked that her name not be used in print, said that "the group raised enough money to cover expenses for the whole year." "If we say it raised a lot of money, people are going to say 'Oh, yeah, they sold their bodies and made a lot of money," she said. "If we say we didn't raise any money, people will just turn around and say, 'They tried to sell their bodies and couldn't make any money.' It could go either way." "As far as the scandal goes, I think people just made such a mountain out of such a mole hill," she said. The long-term effect of the scandal seemed to benefit MSU Motion, Hoenes said. Near the end of April, the squad enjoyed one of its most successful tryouts for new members. Over 50 women competed for a place on the squad. "We were really surprised," Hoenes said. "This was one of the best tryouts sessions in Motion's three-year history." What's in store for Motion next year? The squad is planning to do another calendar — this time in their new uniforms. — Michael llich Randall-rosenthal Mary Jane Randall, Port Huron Criminal Justice Regina J.

Schafer, Jackson Accounting Smoke clears in East Lansing after "clean indoor air law" takes effect H eated debate about the East Lansing smoking ordinance died down to mere embers as the law took effect April 1. The clean indoor air law was sponsored by East Lansing council member David Balas and was modeled after a similar California ordinance. East Lansing's act was the first of its kind in Michigan. It was passed unani­ mously by the Council Dec. 3, amid much public debate from the Chamber of Commerce, tobacco wholesalers and business owners. Although at first the or­ dinance sparked controver­ sy among students most seemed to favor the rule once it was passed. "As a non-smoker I think the no-smoking rule is great, it protects the rights of non-smokers," said Kar­ in Maydock, a biology sophomore. "We (non- smokers) don't want to go around smelling other peoples leftovers." HRI sophomore Karen Hanson was glad to see the ordinance pass because it forces people to be courteous while oth­ ers are eating. People opposed to the amendment were worried about the restrictions of personal freedoms. "The thing that bothers me is that it seems to be another legislative measure in a long line of measures that take away freedom of choice," said journalism senior Wendy Stevens. "A lot of legislation has been passed recently in the name of protection. We have seatbelt laws to protect us, a smoking ordi­ nance to protect us, now we have checkpoints —it's another individual freedom being taken away.

The men were later charged with either disorderly persons or gross indecency between males— which is a felony. One man was later cleared of all charges. Closer to home, homeosexual activity in the men's restroom at the MSU Student Union was reportedly on the decline. During 1983 and 1984, the Union was listed in a national directory as a hot spot for "cruising." But, because of increased monitoring, the Union failed to achieve listing in the 1985 publication. Officials said that a ma­ jority of the incidents in­ volved males from off- campus. Individuals convicted of gross indecency with males faced up to five years in prison and a $2,500 fine. Members of MSU's Lesbian/Gay Council public­ ly denounced "cruising" in the Union, and contributed to efforts to decrease the activity. Furry contestants bare all at first annual Teddy Bear Pageant t may not have been as glamorous as the Miss America Pageant, but for I 17 furry contestants and their owners the first annu­ al teddy bear and stuffed animal pageant produced just as much fun. No-preference sopho­ more Heather Spry and her bear Ted walked off with the first place title and a gift certificate for dinner at Jim's Tiffany Place at the pageant spon­ sored by the Williams Hall government. Second place went to Ypsilanti Wildman owned by human ecology fresh­ man Aimee Boatman and third place was awarded to Swizzle, owned by no­ preference sophomore Martha Scheer. The fuzzy contestants competed in bathing suit, talent and formal wear competitions. Ted sported outfits made by Spry in both the bathing suit and formal wear contest. In the swimsuit competi­ tion Ted wore shorts and a Daytona cap and was accessorized with a towel, shades and a wine cooler. In the formal wear com­ navy tuxedo with tails and a top hat. In addition to first place, Ted won the People's Choice award based on the audience vote. During the competition Swizzle was awarded the "party animal shorts a- ward" which netted Scheer a pair of beach shorts. Spry, a self-proclaimed bear fanatic, entered the pageant just for fun, but said Ted was happy to win and plans to defend his ti­ tle again next year. Scheer also plans on "I thought for sure my bear would win because no one would have a bear like him," said Scheer. "I hope I'll get a better bathing suit for next year's competition and a tux that fits." Bear prizes were awarded to the audience for correct answers to bear trivia questions. "During the pageant the judges asked bear trivia, like who wrote "Winnie the Pooh" to get people involved —it was really a lot of fun," Scheer said. -Janis Matheson petition Ted donned a competing again.

Startling statistics and me­ dia hype prompted Michi­ gan legislators to enact laws to buckle down on the state's drinking and driving problem. One of the "get tough" measures included sobriety checkpoints, authorized by Gov. James Blanchard in his State of the State Address in January and supported by Michigan legislators. The in checkpoints were outlined in Michigan's vehicle codes. The random checkpoints were instituted on May 17 in Saginaw County. The State Police maintain­ ed that only intoxicated drivers would be arrested and that sobriety checks were not intended to enforce other traffic violations such as defective equipment or failure to comply with Michigan's mandatory seatbelt law. Locally, concern focused on underage drinking. Early in 1986, the East Lansing City Council considered denying liquor license renewals to six area nightclubs. The nightclubs under re­ view included: Dooley's Restaurant and Sensations, 131 Albert Ave., The B'Zar, 222 M.A.C. Ave., America's Cup Restaurant and Lounge, 220 M.A.C. Ave., Riviera Cafe, 231 M.A.C. Ave. and Rick's American Cafe, 224 Abbott Road. "With the drinking and driving problem becoming so widespread this year, I think the nonrenewal ques­ tion was blown way out of proportion by the local me­ dia," a manager at Sensa­ tions who asked that his name not be used said.

Sund, Dearborn Merchandising Management also declined to comment on the number of minor in possession citations that had been issued to under­ age drinkers. "MIP's should be looked at in proportion to the volume of alcohol served at the bar," he said. However, the manager did say that the number of MIP citations issued in Dooley's and Sensation's was down this year. "We do everything possi­ ble to prevent underage patrons from drinking," he said. "We stamp only peo­ ple who are 21 or older with our logo, we limit the number of drinks sold at a time and we have a minimum age of 19 to gain entrance to prevent high school age kids from getting in the bar." "I don't think we are or ever were in jeopardy of losing our license," he said. — Janis Matheson NIGHTS OUT.

Perles had predicted that Rolle might go as high as the second or third round, but Rolle said that teams weren't picking many tight ends in the early rounds. Rolle was optimistic about his future with the rebuilding Buffalo team and attended a Bill's rookie mini­ camp the week after the draft. Both players began con­ tract negotiations with their new teams in the spring. — Darcie Humphrey wo of MSU's star sen­ ior football players ner­ vously awaited phone calls T April 29 that would tell them where they were headed as a result of the year's NFL draft. MSU's Anthony Bell was chosen in the first round by the St. Louis Cardinals and Butch Rolle went in the seventh round to the Buffalo Bills. Bell received a call from the Cardinals' coach Gene Stalling while at his home in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., the morning of the draft. His re­ action at being chosen so high in the draft was "amazement, excitement, and joy," he said. Spartan Coach George Perles, however, was not surprised, saying that "Bell deserves to be picked that high," and that the 6-foot- 2, 230-pound outside linebacker would be a good contributor for the Cardi­ nals. Bell, a building construc­ tion management major at MSU, received high marks on NFL scouting reports for his strength and athletic ability. Stallings said Bell may be­ gin his rookie season in the NFL as a starter, depending on how well he can rush the passer.

It also claimed the life of Libyan leader Moammar Khadafy's 15- month-old daughter, Hana, and injured two of his sons; Sef el Arab, 4, and Camis, 3. "No, I don't think it was justified," said Nilofer Chapkhanawalla, a dietetics junior. "The source of ter­ rorism doesn't lie in Libya alone, it lies in Lebanon. I think they were flexing their military power." Another MSU student agreed. Some students didn't believe the attack — which was targeted at Khadafy's "Reagan's irresponsible attacks on defenseless peo­ ple only promoted the au­ thority of his office. It didn't stop terrorism," said Doug Smith, a communications/ pre-law sophomore. "I don't believe the altruistic motives Reagan promoted in the newspapers were the real reasons behind the attack," Smith continued. CONTINUED VALENTIN-WENZEL Alma C. Valentin, Toronto, Ont.

Zeke the Wonderdog, an 11-year-old golden Lab- orador retriever and his owner/trainer Gary Eisen­ berg, a 1979 graduate of MSU, retired because of arthritis in Zeke's legs and hips. "Zeke is close to 80 in our terms and age has really aggravated the arthri­ tis in his hips and legs," Eisenberg said. Zeke, of frisbee-fetching fame has earned recogni­ tion as MSU's canine ce­ lebrity. For Eisenberg and Zeke, the road to notoriety was unleashed when Zeke won the State of Michigan, Midwest regionals and na­ "Zeke was one of the pioneers of dog frisbee," said Eisenberg. In 1977 Zeke was ranked second at the World Championships held at the Rose Bowl, Pasade­ na, Calif. He was hailed as the first Spartan to make it to the Rose Bowl in 10 years, Eisenberg said. After that, Zeke was re­ garded as a half-time hero at Spartan football games. "During poor seasons people came to the games to see Zeke," Eisenberg said. "Sometimes we would go out on the field and students would chant 'Zeke, Zeke, Zeke' so loud it would drown out the band." Zeke was billed the longest-running specialty act at Spartan Stadium fea­ tured on football game Saturdays. In 1978, Zeke became the only non-human to receive a varsity letter Eisenberg said. Former football coach Darryl Rogers presented Zeke with an honorary varsity letter for being the best receiver in the Big- Ten. The Michigan Legisla­ ture also recognized Zeke as the youngest and small­ est athlete to ever win a varsity letter. As a concerned canine, Zeke helped raise funds for many charitable organ­ izations including the Jerry Lewis Labor Day Telethon for Muscular Dystrophy. He also worked at promot­ ing University athletics, Eisenberg said. The lovable Lab was awarded a concurrent resolution from the Michi­ gan Legislature honoring him for his public service. Other achievements un­ der Zeke's collar included half-time performances for the Detroit Lions football games, being featured in Sports Illustrated magazine, the MSU Motion calendar and the Spartan Trivia game. Both Zeke and Eisenberg will miss the howling of the crowds during half time. But, Eisenberg prom­ ised as long as Zeke is alive, "I'll bring him to Homecoming games and let everyone say 'hi'." — Janis Matheson LEAPING LAB.

Wyse, Grand Rapids Packaging Larrowe "lashes out" against University mandatory retirement policy with lawsuit M ost people spend their birthday eating cake and ice cream and celebrating. But economics professor C. Patric "Lash" Larrowe did something a little bit out of the ordi­ nary. On May 1, Larrowe's 70th birthday, he filed a lawsuit and injunction against Michigan State Uni­ versity challenging the Uni­ versity's mandatory retirement policy. According to University policy, professors are re­ quired to retire upon reaching the age of 70. "Each one of us should be dealt with as a person or individual instead of lumping us into groups," Larrowe said. "It's a de­ moralizing way to deal with people." Larrowe based his case on the Elliott-Larsen Act, a state civil rights law which makes it illegal for employ­ ers to discriminate on the basis of age. "It seems to that the University's policy runs head-on with the law," Larrowe said. "The policy is just wrong. This is clearly ageism, which I view simi­ larly to racism or sexism." In Larrowe's eyes man­ datory retirement also vio­ lates the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, he said. Section I of the 14th Amendment states that "no state shall deny to any person within its jurisdic­ tion the equal protection of its laws." Mandatory retirement is a denial of this right, Larrowe said. "All of my life I've been tilting my fist at certain aspects of the law," he said. "I guess you could call me the champion of the lost cause. But, to sin­ gle out a single age strikes me as arbitrary, capricious and unfair." Although Larrowe filed his suit in Ingham County Circuit Court, his case has "a long way to go," he said. On June 9 a judge is scheduled to approve an injunction preventing the University from retiring Larrowe. If the injunction is approved, Larrowe would be able to continue teach­ ing until the case goes to trial. Otherwise Larrowe would be required to re­ tire on July 1. But Lash, as many stu­ dents call him, will contin­ ue teaching part-time at the University, he said. Upon retirement, Univer­ sity policy allows professors the option to enter into an agreement with the department to continue teaching at a part-time level without ten­ ure and 10 percent of their annual salary. "I enjoy teaching and talking with students - that's my per­ sonal reason for going through with the suit," Larrowe said. "It keeps me young to deal with people younger than I am. Younger people are more interesting." "I like what I'm doing and I think I do it well," he said. "I want to continue. I don't feel feeble. Mentally and physically I'm in as good of shape as I've ever been in." Last August Larrowe sent a letter to MSU President John DiBiaggio informing him that he was going to challenge the University's mandatory retirement poli­ cy in court. According to Lash, DiBiaggio sent a "stone­ walled" response to the letter. "DiBiaggio wrote back saying he thought the Uni­ versity's policy was a good one and he would suport it," Larrowe said. If Larrowe, who has written weekly columns for The State News since 1971 and also authored the book "Lashing Out," wins his case, he plans to con­ tinue teaching at the Uni­ versity, he said. However, if he loses he will continue fighting, he added. "If I win I want to con­ tinue teaching until I decide it's become an effort instead of a pleasure —then I'll quit," Larrowe said. "If I lose, I'll appeal. This issue doesn't die." Larrowe said he also PEDDLING ALONG. Economics professor C. Patric "Lash" Larrowe rides his bike to an early morning economics lecture. planned to teach at area schools such as Lansing Community College. Since the battle began, support from students and faculty has been minimal, Larrowe said. "As I go around campus I get responses from stu­ dents like 'Way to go Lash, I'm behind you,"' he said. "But that's about all." "This is one of those fights you take on because you believe it ought to be fought —even though you know you're going to lose," Larrowe added. "I didn't do it for the glory." — Michael llich Photos by LaVern Pennington Yanitz-zusman POPULAR GUY. Larrowe conducts an interview with a reporter from WELM T.V.

Making a Splash The pride came flowing back. Spartan spirit gushed in 1986 as MSU enjoyed one of its best athletic seasons in nearly ten years. "The year has been exciting and memorable," said Athletic Director Doug Weaver. "Its really been a season to be treasured." MSU's tide began to turn. Adrenalin flowed when the Spartan icers won their sec­ ond national championship on March 29 —the first in 20 years. MSU beat Harvard 6-5 on Crimson ice. The championship win bubbled to a celebra­ tion that began at 11 p.m. Saturday and contin­ ued long after the team's return Sunday morning. Nearly 1,000 fans poured into the parking lot of Munn Ice Arena to greet the hockey heros for the event that turned the tide of Spartan Spirit for the year. However, one part of the year was marred by rough waters. The men's basketball season was marked by 15 fatal seconds when the clock stopped in the NCAA midwest regional semifinals against Kan­ sas. The disputed time allowed the Jayhawks to tie the game and win in overtime.

"We would have probably per­ formed a lot better but we had a lot of injuries," senior Mike Kavulich said.

They are mostly sopho­ mores and juniors," he said. "We should be improving because so many people are coming back." However, Women's Cross country coach Karen Dennis won't have to wait until next year for her team to heat up—1985 was it. "We elevated our Big Ten posi­ tion from ninth to seventh place," Dennis said, adding that she's looking forward to finishing in the upper division of the Big Ten next year. The team, however, was also The team's coach, Jim Stintzi, proud of their results. agreed. "We had a real good start but a real disappointing end of the sea­ son," Stintzi said. With an overall record of 18-8 and a record of one win, two losses in the Big Ten, the team still ended up respectable. Tim Simpson, a senior, as the lead runner for the team. "Tim ran well at the Michigan In­ tercollegiate meet. He got third place," Stintzi said. "Tim was the number one performer at the Big Ten meet. He came in 17th. He was also a qualifier for the NCAA District meet." The team placed only ninth in the Big Ten meet, but hope to place in the top half next season. "I think we should be in the top five next year," Neal said. "We are only losing two people —Mike Kavulich and Tim Simpson —so we have enough people to pick up the slack. If everyone can run what they are capable of, then we should be PEP TALK. Runner Vanessa Thompson places 11th with a time of 18:50.0 at a home meet against the University of Michigan. "We performed very well this year," said Eileen Lebold, junior. "This was our most successful sea­ son in three or four years." Andrea Kern, a junior transfer stu­ dent from Macomb Community College proved to be the lead run­ ner. "She is a high-powered athlete with an ability to compete in pres­ sure situations," Dennis said. "As a result, she brought out the best in other members of the team. The only weakness that Andrea has was her inexperience in Big Ten competi­ tion." Kern agreed with Dennis. "I was on a plateau this year. I was hoping to improve a lot but it didn't happen," Kern said. "It was probably the change and the differ­ ent training styles. Now that I have adjusted, I am hoping for that im­ provement." Kern felt that her best race was the districts in Indiana. "Everything clicked. It was rainy and muddy but I was aggressive and competitive in the race. That's a good feeling," Kern said. Following Kern were sopho­ more's Mary Shea and Vanessa Thompson. Lebold was also a strong runner. Shea, a strong and consistent run­ ner, felt that she could have done better. "I didn't do as well as last year. The competition was tougher this year." Shea would like Thompson, Kern and herself to all place in the top 20 in the Big Ten Conference next year. With most of the team returning in the 1986 season, they are very optimistic about next year. "If we get some recruits, we can make some depth. We were low on people —we only had five to seven people at a meet, which is scary because if you have an injury you are out. If we can get more, we can do really great," Kern said. Lebold added, "We should do well next year. We are only losing one senior and will hopefully get new recruits. A lot of the seniors are graduating that are in the Big Ten, so I think we'll have a good chance." "Cross country is a team sport," Lebold said. "We'd like to be in the top half of the Big Ten. We are getting closer every year." Working your way up is a long slow process. Hoping for a successful and healthy year in 1986, Dennis commented, "The strong get stronger and the weak try harder." -Karen Vitone WIN OVER MICHIGAN HIGHLIGHTS FIELD HOCKEY SEASON When winning was not everything When asked what constitutes a winning season, most people pointed to such factors as a perfect record, team honors, and high con­ ference standings. The 1985 Women's Field Hockey team, however, felt their season was a winning one for different reasons. "This season was much better than last year's, and although we were a young team, we worked to­ gether very well," said co-captain Stephanie Allans. Head coach Rich Kimball was also enthusiastic about his team. "The important difference was the fact that the girls were competi­ tive in every game and there was a much higher level of play," said coach Kimball. "I think we have top­ caliber players." One highlight of the Spartans 4- 12-3 record was the victory over University of Michigan at Spartan Stadium. "Everyone on the team was fired up for the game. It was at home and since we were playing Michigan we knew there would be a lot of people out to watch us," junior forward Wendy Clark said. "We tied Michigan the first time we met and we should have beaten them, so we really wanted to win this game. We had the talent and we came out and killed them." Another source of pride for the team was the honors their players received. Junior co-captain Barb Naylor was chosen as a first team All-Big Ten goalkeeper and Wendy Clark made honorable mention All­ Big Ten at the forward position. "I thought both Wendy Clark and Barb Naylor were key players all season," coach Rich Kimball said. "Wendy really ignited the offense and Barb did the same for the defense. Their hard work was shown in that they both were cho­ sen as All-Big Ten performers." — Kim Alexander 1985 FIELD HOCKEY TEAM.

"We didn't play really good in any tournament — we were about middle of the pack," said men's coach Bruce Fossum. The team also placed in the middle of the Big Ten pack, with a fifth place ranking. However, the men's team boasted several strong individual players, including freshman Todd Marston, who placed fifth individual­ ly in the Big Ten Championships on May 16-18. However, Fossum said that sophomore Jon Kosier was overall the best player on the team. The team also said goodbye to two graduating seniors, Steve McKalko and Chris O'Connor.

"Fortunately we have her back next year," said women's coach Mary Fossum. Also in Fossum's Top 4 were Kelly Holland, Faith Egli and Beth Magee. "They helped us because they took the pressure off Lisa to perform," Fossum said. The women's team ranked fourth out of the nine teams in the Big Ten. In the fall season, the team won three tournaments and finished sec­ ond twice, with Marino carrying off Medalist honors in four tourna­ ments. In the spring, Marino was runner-up in four tournaments. "She had outstanding perfor­ mance all year," Fossum said. However, all was not a bed of roses for Marino. One crushing blow was delivered when Marino did not compete in the nationals in New Mexico. had somebody go to nationals since the late 70's," Fossum said. "The coaches felt it was an injustice.

But we were looking for more consis­ tency. We'll have more depth next year-that you can count on," Fossum said. The high points of the season, ac­ cording to Fossum, were twofold - winning the MSU Invitational and being invited to the Atlantic Invitational at East Lake Country Club in Atlanta, where the legendary golfer Bobby Jones spent much of his time.

This 5-foot-11 inch, 205 pound sophomore tailback has rushed his way to the top by becoming the all-time single season rushing leader in the nation when he gained 1,908 yards this past year. He broke the MSU rushing record for a single season, the Big-Ten rushing record, and was placed fourth on the all- time NCAA single-season rushing list surpassed only by Marcus Allen of Southern California (2,342 in 1981), Mike Rozier (2,148 in 1983) and Tony Dorsett of Pittsburgh (1, 948 in 1976). "I think Lorenzo had an out­ standing year. I don't think that, by any stretch of the imagination, he shouldn't be considered for the Heisman Trophy next season," Coach George Perles said. "He's already attained numerous All- American recognition and now the next step is for the Heisman. I'm certainly agree­ able with a lot of people that he's deserving." Bo Jackson of Auburn won the 1985 Heisman Trophy, while White placed fourth in the balloting. How MSU does in its 1986 season will deter­ mine Lorenzo's chances of winning the most prestigous a- ward given to a college player. White describes himself as "basically a shy guy who loves to play football." He has cer­ tainly proved he isn't shy about running the football for MSU. During his freshman season in 1984, White was named the team's most outstanding underclassman after rushing for an MSU freshman record of 616 yards, breaking Aaron Roberts' 1981 record of 461 yards. This season he gained more than 100 yards per game in ten of MSU's eleven games in the regular season, and rushed for more than 200 yards in four of those games. He averaged 173.5 yards per game, leading the entire na­ tion. Voted by his teammates as MSU's Most Valuable Player, Lorenzo White has the poten­ tial to be one of the greatest college running backs of all time. -Thomas Watts KIM HARTWICK Success was nothing new to women's gymnastics freshman Kim Hartwick. Com­ peting for the Great Lakes Gymnastics Club of Lansing, Hartwick claimed four national titles on the balance beam, vault and floor exercise before joining the Spartan squad. She started out in gymnastics at the age of ten —a late start for a gymnast. Her babysitter showed her some basic skills while her grandmother made gymnastics lessons into birthday presents. Her late start didn't effect her, however, because she pos­ sessed a natural talent. "She is graceful, artistic and moves very fluently. Her fluent motions have been her great­ est asset," said MSU gymnastics coach Mike Kasavana. Using her natural and ac­ quired talents, Hartwick has been one of the reasons that the 1985-86 team earned a 14- 4 record as well as consistent national rankings in the top 20. Hartwick's honors include three school records —a 9.6 on the balance beam, a 9.6 on floor exercises, and a 37.25 in the all-around. Her accom­ plishments at the Big Ten championships included a first place on the balance beam, second in the floor exercise —by only .05 — , fourth in the all-around and a sixth place finish on the un­ even bars. Her three school records and Big Ten balance beam championship "are definitely highlights of the sea­ son," Hartwick said Hartwick was highly ranked going into the regional compe­ tition in Baton Rouge, La. She finished second on floor with a score of 9.4. Scholastic success was equally important to the gym­ nastic star. "I set a goal of maintaining a 3.0 grade point average during the year and so far I've done it. With all these pressures I didn't know what to expect, but I keep working, knowing that I can get through it." And with her accomplishments as a gymnast and student, she, as well as Spartan fans, know what to expect. Success. — Mark A. Walters TOP NOTCH.

Donnelly also fin­ ished fourth in MSU career goals. The 1985-86 season was an important one for Donnelly. Scoring the final goal that won the national championship was the highlight of his career he said. Donnelly credited the team's success to the prediction of finishing fourth in their league. With the spotlight off the team, they were able to play their game successfully and win. "It was great," said Donnelly. "We had no pres­ sure on us at all and we went out and improved every weekend." With a national champion­ ship under his belt, Mike Donnelly is destined for success. He anticipates signing an NHL contract for next sea­ son. Head Coach Ron Mason agrees. He said, "Mike Donnelly is going to be a very highly sought after free agent." — Kim Alexander Photos by Sports Information SCOTT SKILES Controversy. It followed Scott Skiles throughout the entire 1985-86 basketball sea­ son, yet there was nothing controversial about the way he played basketball. Before the Kansas game Skiles said, "I'm a guy who's committed some crimes. I'm going to have to pay. Right now, I'm thinking about basketball." But Skiles didn't only "think" bask­ etball, he excelled at it. The 1985-86 season had been the result of staying out of trouble and letting his game to the talking. Coach Jud Heathcote praised Skiles as "by far the best player in our confer­ ence," and his numbers didn't lie. The six-foot-one guard from Plymouth, Inc., earned All-American honors by posting such numbers as 27.4 points per game — second in the NCAA, shooting a .554-331 to 598-from the field and .900— 188 to 209 —from the charity stripe. He led the Big Ten in scoring with 29.1 points per game, well ahead of Indiana's Steve Alford with 22.4. Other statistics included 4.4 rebounds per game, 6.5 assists per game and 1.7 steals per game. He averaged 30.5 points per game in the second half of the season including three 40-plus point games ver­ sus Minnesota, Michigan and Ohio State. Skiles was the nucleus of an underdog team, predicted to finish near the Big Ten cellar. The team ended up with a Big Ten record of 12-6 — 23-8 overall-and lasted longer in the NCAA tournament than any other Big Ten team by making it to the 16th round. "The leadership of Scott Skiles has been a tremendous thing to us," Heathcote said. "He has been an inspiration to our kids for the entire sea­ son." People continually tried to compare Earvin "Magic" Johnson, who lead the Spar­ tans to the NCAA champion­ ship in 1979 and who now lights it up for the NBA's Los Angeles Lakers. Heathcote said that "the only comparison is that they make those around them play better." Skiles and his teammates did play better. Skiles led himself and his team farther and to greater success than most people thought possible. — Mark A. Walters MIKE DONNELLY It was fitting that the top sin­ gle-season scor­ er in NCAA Western Divi­ sion history should score the final goal in the National Championship game. Spartan hockey star Mike Donnelly accomplished those feats and more during the 1985-86 season. Head Coach Ron Mason said of Donnelly, "He will be playing professional hockey next year." All-American Mike Donnelly, a Health and Physical Educa­ tion senior from Livonia, cer­ tainly has the credentials. He was named MVP in the NCAA RECORD FORM.

SPARTANS TRAVELED TO BIRMINGHAM, ALABAMA The All-American season Cherry Bowl, December, 1984 -MSU 6 and Army 14. All-American Bowl, December, 1985 —MSU 14 and Georgia Tech 17. Although the Spartans have not won a Bowl game since the 1956 Rose Bowl when they defeated UCLA 17-14, they improved their record tremendously and have been invited to two bowl games in the past two seasons. Head coach George Perles, in his third year at the helm of the Spartan Football program, performed miracles for putting the Spartans back on the winning track. The Spartans opened their 1985 season with a 12-3 win over the Arizona State Sun Devils in East Lansing prior to the beginning of the school year. The next 10 games rotated between wins and losses ending with a successful season and many standout performances. The biggest disappointment for the team was the game against Big 10 ri­ val U-M. Although the Spartans savored victory one year ago on Wolverine territory they could not re­ peat their success. The Wolverines defense, which was number one in the nation, proved too much for the Spartans to handle. Heisman Trophy runner-up Lorenzo White was held to only 47 yards rushing. This was the only time during the entire season that White did not gain more than 100 yards or more during a game. The sell-out crowd packed into Spartan Stadium and over one million viewers on CBS were stunned as MSU was crushed by U-M 31-0. The loss to Michigan came as a big blow to the Spartans, who had nearly upset Iowa, the week before. MSU lost to the Hawkeyes during the final seconds of that game. Later in the season, the game against Wisconsin was to decide the Spartans fate. If they defeated the Badgers, they were almost guaranteed a Bowl bid.

Quarterback Dave Yarema calls out plays to his teammates during the first quarter of the All-American Bowl. PERLES POWER. Head coach George Perles gives his team a pep talk during morning practice before the game. The All-American Season MSU easily defeated Wisconsin, 41- 7, and were headed South to Birmingham, Ala. for the All-Ameri­ can Bowl. However, the Spartans ended their season with a disheartening 17- 14 loss to the Yellow Jackets from Georgia Tech. Honored players for the 1985 season were offensive tackle, Steve Bogdalek. Bogdalek received first- team Academic All Big Ten honors after he achieved a 3.45 grade point average. Safety Phil Parker, a senior, finished his MSU career with being named to the United Press International first-team All-Big Ten, and Football News second time All- American. Senior tight end Butch Rolle and Veno Belk both shared the "Downtown Coaches Club Offense Award," as MSU's outstanding sen­ ior offensive linemen. Department senior defensive linemen who re­ ceived the "President's Award," in­ cluded Jim Rinella, Kelly Quinn, John Jones, Mark Beaudoin and Joe Curran. Although a good portion of talent graduated from MSU after the 1985 season, the word that would best describe the 1986 team is Exper­ ienced.

The offense will have plenty of time to stay in shape because of the new indoor football facility. As a transfer from Penn State, Greg Montgomery won the punting job in the spring and continued to kick the ball well, averaging 44.7 yards a kick. He was picked to the first team All Big Ten by the Associated Press. His longest of the year went 80 yards. Chris Caudell handled the field goals, 52 yards was his longest. As far as a defense was con­ cerned, Shane Bullough ranked fifth in the Big Ten with 101 tackles, while Tim Moore was seventh with 92 tackles. Todd Krumm led the team in interceptions with four, while the departing Parker had three. Parker was selected by the Big Ten's coaches to the UPI All Big Ten selection three consecutive years. Now is the time to look ahead to the future. Professional careers for MS seniors and another year of hard work for George Perles and company. Since the arrival of Perles, the Spartans have progressively become one of the Big Ten's most watched teams. As 1985 indicates, a bright future is in store for the Michigan State Spartans' football program. -Thomas Watts MEN'S SOCCER EARNS A RECORD 13 WINS Better than ever Under ninth year Head Coach Joe Baum, Men's Soccer enjoyed their most successful season ever, setting a school record of 13 wins in a sin­ gle season and attaining a fifth place ranking in the NCAA Mideast re­ gional conference. "We were very pleased with the team's performance," Baum said. "We had anticipated a good year because we had so many upperclassmen returning." Preseason goals of the team were to achieve 13 wins and to earn a bid to NCAA post-season play. "To achieve a post-season bid is very difficult to do as the NCAA only awards two bids to over 40 teams which compete within our re­ gion," Baum said. "We would have had to win at least 15 games in or­ der for us to have earned a bid. Al­ though we were unable to accomplish this goal, it was not a major disappointment as it was a high level aspiration." While falling a bit short, success could not elude the Spartans in 1985 as they stood 7-0-1 after their first eight contests. "It was nice to come out of the blocks fast and get off to a really good start," said Baum. "It brought the team closer together and kept our confidence level high as it is al­ ways fun to be undefeated." "Our goalies were outstanding, our defensemen were all upperclassmen who did fine jobs, making it very difficult for our oppo­ nents to score on us," Baum com­ mented, "Offensively, the midfielders and forwards generated a lot of chances and finished a lot of goals." The season was filled with frustra­ tions too, as the Spartans exper­ ienced many emotional ups and downs. "We had some injuries to some key players early in the season which could have led to an emo­ tional let-down," commented Baum. "Yet other players filled in and played much better than we had an­ ticipated." During the third game of the sea­ son, at Ohio State, Todd Goodwin, one of the team's top forwards broke his ankle. This left the Spar­ tans with few capable substitutes for the front forward positions — the primary goal scorers - which left the team very down. "Yet Jim Blanchard, a transfer from Indiana, stepped right into the lineup and picked up where Todd left off and had a phenomenal freshman year," Baum commented. "Without him, I think the offense would have been much less effective —it was a big lift for us." "When substitute players give outstanding individual efforts," add­ ed Baum, "it helps the team to re­ main at a consistent level of intensity and, consequently you don't see any downswing in their level of play." "Beating University of Wisconsin in Madison was a big high for us," said Baum. "They have a very solid program and we went in as under­ dogs and beat them in their own backyard." Tying Cleveland State University was quite a feat for the Spartans this year. "They man-handled us the last time our two teams met and we really haven't had much success against them in the past," said Baum. "They are a team predominately made up of foreign talent and attaining a tie with them was a real accomplishment." In 1985, the scoring was very evenly balanced among three of four players. "Each member is more able to feel part of the team," Baum said. "The weight of success no longer falls on any one player's shoulder as everyone this year was able to feel that he contributed to the success of the team." While stressing the total team ef­ fort, Baum also mentioned some standout performers who gave out­ standing efforts which could be di­ rectly related to the team's success. Goalie Paul Zimmerman, who was chosen first team All-Mideast, was valuable performer for the Spartans this year. "He had a great, great career here," said Baum. "He holds every goalie record that exists here at MSU." Peter Crawley was the team's leading scorer in 1985. "It is quite an accomplishment for a midfielder to be a team's leading scorer as they don't get the same scoring opportunities which the for­ wards do," Baum said. "Peter stepped in and had a very outstand­ ing year." Baum was extremely pleased with the consistent play of forwards Jim Gallina and Jim Blanchard, who fin­ ished second and third in scoring this year. Yet Baum singled out the effort of Doug Handerfeld, who filled in for injured Niki Golgi, picking up his play an additional lev­ el. For the 1985 season, Baum had no regrets. "We just tried to play mistake- free soccer, but of course we didn't do that all of the time," Baum said. "But there were games where we played as well as we were capable of playing and that's a rewarding feeling for both the players and the coaches." — Jon Patrucco MAKE WAY.

Best tute 8-3 in the championship game, making the fourth straight time the Spartans won the tournament. MSU's season was highlighted by its second straight outright Central Collegiate Hockey Association championship. And then the team capped its first-ever trip to the NCAA finals with a dramatic 6-5 vic­ tory over Harvard for the national championship. The most amazing part about the season was that the Spartan icers were not expected to be champion­ ship material. The team lost a lot of talent from the previous season, when the Spartans advanced to the NCAA quarterfinals, but lost. 1986 was predicted to struggle even to get a home ice advantage for the league playoffs. At mid-season, that forecast looked very accurate. The Spartans slumped through November and early December and slipped to fourth in the CCHA. Then, for reasons unknown, MSU came to­ gether and began to play devastat­ ing hockey. The first indications of greatness began to appear in the Great Lakes Invitational Tournament. MSU de­ stroyed Rensselar Polytechnic Insti­ PROUD WELCOME. Over 1000 MSU hockey fans greeted the icers upon their return from the NCAA playoffs. The Spartans opened that cham­ pionship game with a goal by Mitch Messier only 10 seconds into the contest. MSU fired 27 shots at the RPI goalie - including goals by Kevin Miller and Mike Donnelly — to take a 3-2 lead. The Spartans never looked back. Miller, Donnelly and Don McSween were named to the All­ Tournament team, with McSween grabbing tournament MVP honors. But more importantly, the Spartans came together as a team during that weekend at Joe Louis Arena. As coach Ron Mason said, "Tonight, they grew up a lot." This was bad news for the rest of the CCHA, as the Spartans went on a rampage over the second half of the season, leaving many teams scattered in their wake. MSU destroyed the first six CCHA opponents they faced, en route to a string of 23 games that resulted in 20 wins and one tie. "I think we're coming closer to being a good team now," Mason said at the time. "This year every­ body on the team, almost, was as­ suming a new role. So I think now we're coming closer together."

In the CCHA playoff game against Michigan, Mike Donnelly scored and kept right on going into the Wolverine net. Nation's Best the Spartans to the CCHA title and a number one ranking in the nation. And although the Spartans lost to Western Michigan in the CCHA playoffs — snapping a 17-game winning streak at Joe Louis Arena and ending MSU's four-year CCHS playoff domination — the icers, 30-9- 2 at the time, still locked up the NCAA at-large bid. From there, it seemed, it was all academic. The Spartans rampaged their way through the tournament, arriving finally in the championship game against Harvard. It was vintage Spartans. Once again MSU had to come from be­ hind, as Harvard led by two goals three times during the game. But an incredible, against-all-odds four-goal third period was capped by Donnelly with 2:51 left and the Spartans became national champi­ ons. "This game was characteristic of our whole season, I think; coming from behind and never giving up," Mason said. "The way we won the game tonight was characteristic of our season. I couldn't be more proud of this team." It was perhaps only fitting that a goal by Donnelly should wrap up the championship season. The 5- foot-11 185-pound senior left wing was an easy All-American pick after a season in which —with 59 goals —Donnelly became the top single-season goal scorer in NCAA —West history. Donnelly left MSU fourth in ca­ reer goals, eighth in career points and the most hat-tricks in MSU history. Donnelly was named MVP in the NCAA tournament, as well as MSU's 1986 MVP. Donnelly was also named the team's Outstanding Offensive Player and outstanding senior. But anyone who watched the MSU icers knew that this team was more than just one player. Fighting back time and time again-the last time for the NCAA crown —the Spartans' spectacular 1986 season was a total team effort. As captain Messier said, "I, as well as the rest of the team, all contributed in their HOCKEY TEAM.

HOOPSTERS MAKE IT TO NCAA PLAYOFFS When the clock ran out The Spartan football team was going through final preparations for their All-American Bowl matchup with Georgia Tech, while at the same time Jud Heathcote was bring­ ing his 10-1 men's basketball team home from Albuquerque, New Mexico after winning the Lobo Classic. What awaited the 1985-86 Spartan basketball team was a successful third-place finish in the Big Ten and a trip to the Midwest Re­ gional semifinals in Kansas City, Mo. The season also saw Scott Skiles dazzle the college ranks with his brash style of play that led him to various All-American and Player of the Year awards. And Jud Heathcote, in his tenth year at MSU, won Big Ten "Coach of the Year" honors. Their 23-8 won-lost mark was the third highest record for an MSU basketball team. The Earvin "Magic" Johnson years were the only time a team has complied a better record than during 1985-86. The back court duet of Skiles and junior Darryl Johnson, plus a third guard, transfer Vernon Carr, had the Spartans' fast break going all year long. The big men probably had the most pressure on them because of the three-guard offense. Senior Larry Polec, an honorable mention pick for the 1986 UPI and AP All-Big Ten led the team in rebounding and won the Stephen G. Scofes Award for sportsmanship at the MSU Awards Banquet. Barry Fordham, a junior primarily used as a defensive specialist had the distinction of covering the centers of the league. Some includ­ ed michigan's Roy Tarpley, Illinois' Ken Norman and Minnesota's John Shasky. Of course his performance against Kansas earned him Most Valuable Player of the game. Senior Ralph Walker came on in the late stages of the season and became a force for the Spartans in the last two games of the regular season. In 1987, sophomore Carlton Valentine would most likely replace Walker as a role player. Walker won the WXYT-Radio Award in his final season as a Spartan. The Spartans started out the Big Ten with a 2-3 record. The turning point of the season may have been the Michigan game on Jan. 25 in East Lansing. Skiles poured in 40 points, pacing MSU to a 91-79 victory over the Wolverines. The next 11 games brought nine victories, including another victory over Michigan. continued TWO MORE. Most improved player Darryl Johnson builds his reputation as second highest in team scoring by making another successful jump shot. FAST MOVES.

Call it what you like, but the thing that makes bask­ etball and sports what it is are the heartbreaks and the happiness they can bring. MSU played a game long­ er than they should have—15 fateful seconds longer — and they took the loss. The 1985-86 Spartan basketball team doesn't want anyone's sympa­ thy. They had an incredible season, one that ranks with the champion­ ship team of 1978-79. Skiles and Polec should have a future in the NBA. "It's time to move on," Skiles said. "We had a great year and no one can take that away from us," Polec agreed. MSU's future looks bright with three starters returning and a bench full of strength. Recruits should help fill positions vacated by the depart­ ing seniors. Kirk Manns, the top scorer in Indiana high school basket­ ball during the past two years, was expected to fill the gaping hole left ty Skiles. Like Skiles, Manns played for a small school about 30 miles from Plymouth, where Skiles played four years before. Jenison Field House was planned to be replaced by a new indoor are­ na. The $30 million complex was slated for construction in 1987. "We can uplift our program, get it back into position to compete for the championship," Heathcote said, referring to what the new arena may mean to recruiting. Heathcote would rather talk about this year's team. "There is always satisfaction when a team does well," said Heathcote. "And there is real satis­ faction when it goes beyond its po­ tential." Heathcote edged out Bob Knight of Indiana for the Big Ten Coach of the Year honor. And he won't find any answers for his team's loss to Kansas in the Midwest Regional semifinal game, but he's already planning for next season. There was glory. And there was frustration. But the MSU 1985-86 basketball team had 15 seconds of misfortune to overcome. Though their luck ran out, they did manage to win it in the eyes of their fans, who waited anxiously for 1987. — Tom Watts It was Skiles averaging 29.1 points a game to take the Big Ten scoring. Sam Vincent won the same title in 1984-85. Skiles also ended up with the school's career scoring mark of 2,070 points, not including his 75 points in the three NCAA Tourna­ ment games. Other Skiles school records include most assists, steals and highest free throw percentage. His leadership on the court accounted for his successes. Key victories for the Spartans in­ cluded winning the Spartan Cutlass Classic for the final time and losing their only non-conference game of the year to Iowa State in overtime. Losses at Iowa and Minnesota were the only back-to-back setbacks MSU encountered all year. Their 14-2 home record resulted in four sellouts. That's 10,004. The Spartans went to Dayton, Ohio and defeated Washington 72- 70 on a Skiles layup and then upset Georgetown to set up the showdown with the Kansas Jayhawks at Kemper Arena in Kan­ sas City. Kansas was rated the num­ ber two team in the nation behind Duke before the tournament began. The outcome of that game will go MEN'S BASKETBALL.

A 24 YEAR COACHING CAREER ENDS Peninger pride MSU's 1985-86 wrestling season will not be remembered so much for the wins and the losses as it will for the retirement of one of the greatest figures in MSU sports. Grady Peninger stepped down as head coach this season, ending a 24-year coaching career with the Spartans. In his tenure at MSU, Peninger rolled up a 212-113-10 record. Un­ der Peninger, the Spartans became the first Big Ten team to win the Na­ tional Collegiate Athletic association Championship. Peninger led the grapplers to seven consecutive Big Ten titles, tutoring 43 league championships and 11 national champions along the way. He was a member of the Amateur Hall of Fame, was named Coach of the Year in 1966 and 1967 and Man of the Year in 1968. Until this year, he had never had a losing season. In announcing his retirement, Peninger said, "I don't have any regrets or bad memories. I'm the luckiest man and coach that's ever lived." MSU was lucky to have him-Peninger always tried to be more than a coach to his wrestlers. According to assistant coach Pat Milkovich, Peninger's philosophy was: "If the only thing we teach these kids is a new hold, then we haven't done our job." Peninger and Milkovich did their jobs in 1985-86, but the wrestlers-an extremely young team starting five to six freshmen — struggled to a 4-12-1 overall record and a 1-8 Big Ten mark. The team placed a surprising fifth in the Big Ten championships, just a half point out of fourth. Dave Mariola reached the finals of his weight class —the only Spartan to get that far —before falling to de­ fending Big Ten and national cham­ pion Rico Chiaparelli. The team continued to improve in post-season competition, placing 23rd in a 90-plus field in the NCAA tournament. One hundred and thir­ ty-four pounder Dan Matuach fin­ ished seventh nationally after a fourth place showing in the Big Ten and grabbed All-America honors. One hundred and ninety pounder John Przybyla went 2-2 in the NCAAs after placing third in the Big Ten. But the wrestlers' big story was Mariola, a sophomore who fol­ lowed his second-place finish with a fifth-place national showing. Mariola, the team's strongest performer with a 32-3 regular season mark, was also named All-American. — Kevin Roberts Scoreboard MSU 16 18 9 9 27 14 30 16 14 4 9 17 9 25 5 13 29 OHIO STATE INDIANA STATE OKLAHOMA NORTH CAROLINA TENNESSEE OHIO STATE INDIANA ILLINOIS PURDUE MICHIGAN OKLAHOMA STATE NORTHWESTERN MINNESOTA NOTRE DAME IOWA WISCONSIN TOLEDO Opp. 21 18 33 34 14 21 7 19 26 42 34 28 33 12 51 28 19 BOTTOM LINE: 4-12-1 WRESTLING.

FIRST YEAR COACH SUFFERS LOSING SEASON Junior laden Adversity and first year coaches are no strangers to each other; Gin­ ger Mayson can testify to that. Mayson, hired last spring as only MSU's second volleyball head coach in the sport's 12 year history, took the reigns of a young team and fin­ ished last in the race for the Big Ten title with a 7-25 record, including a 0-18 mark in league play. "It was junior-laden," Mayson said. "But when we started practice, I saw us capable of realistically picking up to 12 to 14 wins." Eight of the 13 players, including two-time letter winners Pam Wischmeyer, Sharon Hekker and Kris Durst, came into the 1985 sea­ son as juniors and along with junior transfer Shantille Schmidt, the Spar­ tans' pre-season optimism infected the players and new coach. "I saw us doing things I didn't think we would be doing until later in the season," said Mayson. Prior to the start of the Big Ten season in late September, MSU split its 14 matches with non-league competition. The biggest conquest, a victory over then 18th ranked Pittsburgh proved to be the climax of the season. Unfortunately, two months remained on the Spartan schedule. "All of a sudden, Big Ten reality set in," Mayson said. "We never had a chance to feel good about ourselves. We kept losing." October was a forgettable month for MSU, 11 losses in 11 games. "We weren't too inexperienced to compete, we just could not win," said Mayson. "But we did get bet­ ter." Freshman Judy Doles, of River Grove, III., came to the program as the team's only setter and Mayson said she was one of the main reasons the Spartans won seven games. "She played like a sophomore," said Mayson. "That's a big compliment not to play as a fresh­ man." Teammate Kelly Collister finished second to Wischmeyer in digs and earned the praise of Mayson. "Anyone who played close to her played better," Mayson said. 1985 marked the beginning of a new university commitment in the hope of making MSU competitive with other schools. Mayson became the Spartan's first full-time coach and the hiring of Kelly Becker as as­ sistant coach proved that MSU is serious about building a contender. "We are building, not rebuilding," Mayson, a former assistant coach at Kansas State said. "We aren't tearing something down, we are building it up." The building of a contender is not that far away as far as Mayson is concerned. All of her players, ex­ cluding senior Jane Zenner, are eligi­ ble to play next year. "There is absolutely no way we are going to be on the bottom of the Big Ten next year," Mayson said. "There is no doubt in my mind." — Tim Winter UP FOR THE SLAM!

WOMEN BREAK BETTER-THAN-EVEN The story behind the scoreboard Despite injuries to key players, lack of height and tough competi­ tion within the Big Ten, the MSU women's basketball team managed to post a respectable 15-12 record. Perhaps more important than the numbers on the scoreboard were the strong signs of consistent year- to-year improvement that could one day lead a championship season. In the words of head coach Karen Langeland, "we're headed in the right direction." Injuries benched the skills of ju­ nior forward Kim Archer, freshman forward Taraisa Wills and freshman center Dawn DeYoung. Though not expected to be a regular starter, DeYoung's height and ability to come off the bench in foul situations was missed due to a broken hand, finger, and a stress fracture in her leg. The center saw action in only eight games. Wills watched from the sidelines while nursing torn knee cartilage. Knee ailments likewise forced Archer to spend a frustrating year on the bench, though she was expected to compete in 1987. The Spartans were also hurt by a lack of height. "Our shortness was definitely a weak point," said junior forward Kris Emerson. But the cagers worked hard to make up for PUMPING RUBBER. Junior Julie Polakowski adds two points to the scoreboard. Despite the effort, MSU lost 62-73 to Minnesota. this handicap by taking an aggressive attitude toward their play. The squad also showed con­ siderable prowess in outside shoot­ ing and rebounding. "Our depth is a real plus," said Langeland. Outstand­ ing individual performances worked for the general good of the team, such as that turned in by Emerson, who consistently worked the boards from the inside. Tough competition in the Big Ten was another factor that kept the women Spartans in check. "Playing another Big Ten team is always a challenge," said senior guard Kelly Belanger. "You can never go into another Big Ten game knowing that you're going to win." The scoreboard shows that the squad broke even in their conference, go­ ing 9-9 for the season. Still, for the Spartans it was a season that contained plenty of down-to-the- wire excitement that Big Ten com­ petition is known for. "It was a great feeling beating Indiana at the buzzer," recalled sen­ ior guard Julie Polakowski, referring to the team's March 6 victory over the Hoosiers, 77-75. And the women Spartans matched their male counterparts win for win in contests with the cross-state rivals, the Michigan Wolverines. Remembering the team's two victories against Michi­ gan, coach Langeland said, "anytime we beat Michigan we're happy." Hopes were high that the team would continue on its course of im­ provement, with possible champion­ ship contention in the future. How­ ever, this would have to be done without the services of assistant coach Tina Krah, who planned to leave East Lansing to head the wom­ en's basketball program at San Jose State University in California. Team confidence was still high, however. Returning forward Emerson fore­ saw a bright season for 1986-87. "We're going to be bigger and bet­ ter. It should be exciting." Next sea­ son will give Spartan fans plenty of opportunity to see the talent of six- foot-five center Susan Forsyth. A transfer student, Forsyth spent the 1985-86 season meeting NCAA eligi­ bility requirements by watching from the wings. Her height and skill should prove to be a valuable contribution to the hoopsters. Outgoing seniors shared the feeling that the 1987 squad could be a force to reckon with. "We did better this year than most people expected, but next year ought to be even more interesting," ex­ plained Polakowski. But championship or no championship, the MSU wom­ en's basketball team will surely contin­ ue to score high points with their fans if their dedication and tradition of im­ provement continue. -Andrew Malonis TOUCHE'.

Reunited with fencing team alumni, retired coach Charles Schmitter reacquaints himself with two ex­ members. 8-12 SEASON MARKS YEAR OF REBUILDING Building fencers "A rebuilding year" was a term typically quipped by new coaches when describing their first seasons. And it was the expression third year Fencing coach Fred Freiheit used to describe their 8-12 record. Michigan State's Fencing team is beginning a rebuilding program de­ signed to put the Spartans back into a competitive position in the Big- Ten, Freiheit said. "We had about 15 men on the team including learners," said num­ ber one fencer Peter Colovas. "It's enough to field a team, but not as many as we would like." Colovas felt MSU's team was at a disadvantage because the team is all walk-ons. "We have no money players," Colovas said. Most players in the Big-Ten are on large teams with scholarship players. "We don't have any scholarships, we just enjoy the sport," team cap­ tain Ken VanGolen said. The fencing team has had Varsity status since the 20's, but doesn't get much support, VanGolen said. "We're one of the oldest sports and nobody knows about us," VanGolen said. "When Notre Dame comes they bring more spectators than we have total (counting our team)," he said. Illinois and Notre Dame were the most important meets of the season according to Colovas. "They are the cream of the crop in fencing," Colovas said. Although MSU lost both meets Colovas said the team enjoyed seeing how they stacked up against the best. During the season, fencers spend 12-15 hours a week practicing and meets last all day Saturday, VanGolen said. "The practice for the sport is strenuous and sometimes difficult to follow," Freiheit said. "I give my boys the mental and physical tools to compete and it's up to them to master the sport or not." Colovas agreed, "Fencing takes a lot of dedication and concentration, it's a game of thought and discipline." Preparation is an important part of the game. "Each person has his own regiment he goes through to prepare for meets," Colovas said. "When we're on the road the van is full of Walkmans." Dedication and talent were also used by Freiheit when discussing prospects for next year. If we can reach a substantial amount of capable men who are in fencing programs in high school or who are keenly interested in the sport, MSU will bounce back and capture the title that has eluded them for 13 years, Freiheit said. — Janis Matheson Scoreboard MSU 11 15 17 18 9 11 10 19 13 5 8 13 13 12 4 1 18 18 8 15 Opp. 16 12 10 9 18 16 17 8 14 22 19 14 14 15 23 26 9 9 19 12 WINDSOR U-M DEARBORN EASTERN MICHIGAN TRI-STATE NORTHWESTERN PURDUE CLEVELAND STATE MICHIGAN DETROIT WISCONSIN OHIO STATE MINNESOTA LAWRENCE WAYNE STATE CHICAGO DETROIT DETROIT NOTRE DAME ILLINOIS MICHIGAN EASTERN MICHIGAN WAYNE STATE OAKLAND BOTTOM LINE: 8-12 FENCING.

FOR SZYPULA'S 39TH SEASON 2 PLAYERS QUALIFY FOR NCAA Ups and downs When George Szypula entered his 39th year as head coach of the men's gymnastics team, he had intentions of bettering last season's mark of 14 victories. The 1985-86 team won 15 times and they could do no better than 7th place in the Big Ten. But they placed two individuals in the NCAA National Meet in Nebraska. Junior Allan Powers placed 9th on the still rings (9.65) and sophomore Keith Pettit took 20th in the prelimi­ nary round of the horizontal bar competition with a score of 9.55. "Keith was a dominating force for our team this year," Szypula said. "He seemed to pick up the rest of the team when (John) Spellis went down with the knee injury. I was pleased that Powers placed 9th at Nebraska." Spellis, the senior co-captain, had been one of MSU's most consistent performers over the last three years. State's top performer in the pom­ mel horse was Edward Malec. The junior from Staten Island, N.Y., also performed the all-around. He was closely watched by Matthew Neurock and Andrew Ladwig, who both perform on the horse. Ladwig served as another co-cap­ tain, but interesting enough, Ladwig was taught in high school by Szypula. "Andy was out of Jackson, it was close to where I live," Szypula said. "Andy did a real good job for us this year. He messed up a few times but continued to get bet­ ter as the season went on." "It's so easy to mess up out there in the pressure situations. It always seems as if you do a perfect routine during practice and warm-ups. I think the guys can relate to what I'm saying —it's extremely difficult." Freshman Greg Jung competed in the all-around, rings, and floor exer­ cises. He was the top newcomer for MSU and according to Szypula, "he has the potential to be a top per­ former in the Big Ten." Assistant coach John Nelson fin­ ished his second season with the team. "I've had a great time coach­ ing the guys, trying to make them into better gymnasts," Nelson said. "I've been involved with gymnastics for 15 years and I know what it takes to be good at what you're do­ ing." "The season went real good, even though we had a couple key injuries that set us back a bit. We finished something like 18th overall, last year we finished at number 20 in the nation." "I can't overemphasize the impact that attitude has on these guys," Szypula said. "If you continue to keep that attitude in a positive man­ ner, then it will pay off for you in the future. I've been teaching these kids for many years now— Szypula is 65-years-old — and you just have it." The Iowa Hawkeyes won the Big Ten followed by the Minnesota Gophers. "I was surprised to see Minnesota taking second," Szypula said. "I hope we can be a surprise team like Minnesota was this year." The gymnasts had a season full of victories and winners, but next sea­ son will mark 40 years of gymnastics at MSU and 40 years of one coach, George Szypula. The 1985-86 team broke records, next season's 40th anniversary team may rewrite the record books and create national recognition for gymnastics at MSU. — Thomas Watts IN CONTROL.

THE WINNING TRADITION CONTINUES ... The best kept secret To many athletic teams a winning season is a great accomplishment, but for MSU's women's gymnastics it is a requirement. The team, under Head Coach Michael Kasavana, has been ranked in the Top 20 teams for the past nine seasons. "We're the best kept secret on this campus," said Kasavana. "We've had the winningest record for ten years." The 1985-86 team continued their winning tradition by finishing 14-4 in dual meets and third in the Big Ten conference behind Minnesota and Ohio State. The competition in the Big Ten was especially tough this year, with the top three teams fin­ ishing less than two points away from each other. By placing first in the conference, Ohio State was able to tie MSU's record of four con­ secutive Big Ten titles. During the season the Spartans received strong performances from freshman Kim Hartwick and senior captain Frances Marino. Kim Hartwick broke school records in three events: balance beam (9.6), floor (9.6), and all-around (37.25). Hartwick also took first place on balance beam in the Big Ten championships.

"It was incredible," said assistant coach Jill Hough. "We had every event except for one unexpected break on balance beam. As a coach I couldn't have been more pleased," she said. By placing first on the uneven bars in Regionals, Frances Marino qualified for NCAA Nationals in Gainesville, Fla. Marino scored a 9.2 and finished in the Top 20 nationally. "It was really exciting," said Marino. "I thought it was going to be a lot scarier than it actually was. It was a nice way to end my ca­ reer," she added. — Kim Alexander a great season as well, joining Kim Hartwick and Peggy McMaster on the All-Big Ten team and breaking her own school record on the un­ even bars with a score of 9.6. The team's winning ways were noticed by more than just local gymnastics fans when two of their meets were covered by Pro-Am Sports System (PASS). The meets against Michigan and Illinois State were both broadcast on PASS. "It was an honor to have PASS cover our meets," said Coach Kasavana. "It shows that people are becoming interested in us." Another highlight of the season was the quad meet in which Michi­ gan State hosted Iowa State, Central Michigan and Western Michigan. This was an exciting victory for the team, since it was the first time they had hosted a quad meet. The end of the team's season was challenging because Michigan State faced their most formidable compe­ tition in the NCAA Regional Meet in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Ranked third in their region, MSU challenged the top performers of Alabama and Louisiana State, ranked eighth and tenth in the nation.

HARD WORK EARNS 6TH IN BIG TEN Constantly improving Hardworking and constantly im­ proving were words the head coach of the men's swim team used most often in describing the team's 1986 performance. Dick Fetters, a 16-year veteran of MSU swim team coaching, said the team "peaked at the end of their season" with the Big Ten Champion­ ship meet. The squad achieved a record of 11 wins, six losses and a tie with a Big Ten record of 3-3. At the Big Ten Championship in March, the team moved from last year's eighth place to the sixth place finish for 1985-86. Fetters called this meet "the highlight of the season," and it was at this meet that sopho­ more standout Frank Deeter broke two school records for MSU in the 100 freestyle, Deeter clocked :44.92 and in the 200 freestyle a time of 1:38.32. MSU scored a total of 242 points earning their highest finish in eight years. Senior co-captains Kirk Goins and Peter Lundquist provided "strong leadership for the team," according to Fetters. Lundquist earned the honor of receiving the Senior Aca­ demic Award for excellence in aca­ demics as well as athletics. Additional school records were shattered by Deeter in the 50 freestyle with a time of :20.85 as well as the relay teams. The 400 medley team of Goins, sophomore Brad Zylman, sophomore Mike Green and sophomore Richard Grimshaw clocked 3:24.27 to beat the old record by more than three seconds. The 400 medley freestyle relay team of Deeter, Goins, fresh­ man Brian Goins and Green set their mark at 3:04.00 to trim 1.1 seconds off the previous record. The 800 freestyle team of Brian Goins, Deeter, sophomore Barry Hibbard and Green timed 6:42.09 to estab­ lish a new record more than six seconds faster than the former record. In addition to these new records, the team also boasted a NCAA qualifier for the three meter board event in dividing. Senior Ro­ land McDonald earned this distinc­ tion and placed 28th in the NCAA Championship meet in March. Strong performances were also seen in Grimshaw in the 100 freestyle, the 200 backstroke and the 100 backstroke. Green provided strength in the 200 individual med­ ley and the 500 freestyle. Fetters de­ scribed Green as a fantastic compet­ itor and Green was honored with the Most Improved Athlete Award. Deeter was given the Most Valuable Athlete award. Freshman Sidney Appelboom, a member of the Belgium National Team, gave strong performances in the 200 breast­ stroke. Head diving coach John Narcy, described his divers as a "great, inexperienced team that did far bet­ ter than I ever expected." In addi­ tion to the NCAA performance by McDonald, Narcy also found strength in senior diver Todd Ovenhouse, who performed on all three boards, as well as senior Michael Wagner. The diving team also earned 48 points at the Big Ten Championship meet, and Narcy said the highest his divers had scored in previous years was 20 points. What will the 1986-87 season hold for MSU's swimming and diving team? No one really knows, but they will be losing six talented sen­ iors to graduation. But as co-captain Kirk Goins said, "We're a young, inexperienced team that has a lot to look forward to in the future."

VETERAN COACH LEADS TEAM TO 4TH PLACE Five place jump The 1985-86 women's swimming and diving team was the "fastest team I've ever coached," said head coach Jennifer Parks. Considering that the season marked the twelfth year she has served as Michigan State's women's swim coach and that her experience bridges three decades, this was an extremely high tribute to a hardworking team of 28 women. Among their accomplishments during 1985-86, the team succeeded in moving up in the Big Ten stand­ ings from their ninth place status a year earlier to a phenominal fourth place finish. In addition, in the NCAA Champi­ onship meet, the team grabbed an 18th place, which placed them in front of all other Big Ten teams, with the exception of Ohio State and Minnesota. The individual accomplishments for the team during the season were just as impressive as the team's per­ formance. Co-captains Wendy Ingraham and June Russell were in­ strumental in providing leadership for the team during their senior year. Freshman standout Mary Schoenle excelled in the 200-yard in­ dividual medley as well as the 400 individual medley, 100 freestyle, 1000 freestyle and one and two hundred breaststroke. She also set new school records in all her events except the 200 breaststroke. Addi­ tional school records were broken by freshman Kelly Smyles in the 100 butterfly and freshman Dyne Burrell in the 100 and 200 backstroke events. NCAA qualifying times were achieved by freshman Laurie Schaak in the one and three meter diving events, and Mary Schoenle in the 100 freestyle and the 200 individual medley. The 200 individual medley was also the event in which Schoenle earned the status of a Big Ten Champion. Honorable All- American statue was also granted to Schoenle in the 100 breaststroke. The 400 freestyle relay team of Ingraham, Rozman, Schoenle and freshman Jennifer Collette set a school record with their NCAA qualifying time and also earned the title of Big Ten champions while setting a Big Ten record. Collette, Burrell, Ingraham and Schoenle also raced to a school record in the 800 freestyle relay. Strong performances were also marked by Smyles in the 200 butterfly, Tozman in the 50 freestyle, Ingraham in the 200 and 500 freestyle and Schoenle in the 200 breaststroke. The team had an admirable record of 13 wins and two losses, earning six wins and two losses dur­ ing Big Ten meets. Overall, 13 school records were set and the team qualified for the NCAA meet in ten events. A Big Ten record was set and the team hosted Big Ten Champions in two events. All-Ameri­ can honors went to a relay team and Honorable All-American statue was given to another relay team and to Schoenle in the 100 breast­ stroke. With these accomplishments it was easy to see why Parks called the team the fastest she ever coached. — Kim Lybarger Scoreboard MSU Opp. 50 ETOBICOKE AQUATICS 45 29 WATERLOO 66 IOWA 81 59 INDIANA 85 55 WRIGHT STATE 32 81 EASTERN MICHIGAN 48 93 62 ILLINOIS 51 PURDUE 78 25 WISCONSIN 61 79 62 MICHIGAN 78 40 NORTHWESTERN 70 74 OAKLAND 38 74 NORTHERN MICHIGAN 57 85 GRAND VALLEY 53 85 55 OHIO STATE BOTTOM LINE: 13-2 WOMEN'S SWIM TEAM.

SOFTBALL HAS BEST SEASON IN 5 YEARS Second in Big Ten When the dust had cleared, the 1986 MSU women's softball team had become the most successful softball squad in the last five years with a 29-20 overall record and a 14-10 record in conference play. A three-way tie for the Big Ten ti­ tle left the Spartans only one game behind the leaders, one game that will stick in the minds of the return­ ing ballplayers who will set out to become next year's Big Ten champi­ ons. "We have one thought for next year and that is to become the Big Ten champs," said assistant coach Donna Thomas. "Our goal is to win it, we have some fine returning players and a good pitching staff. I realize that we're losing some quality players, including our top two pitchers, but we feel confident that our younger pitchers will come through for us." Led by senior pitchers Diane Kennett (10-5) and Diane Gentry (14-10), the spartans main two hurlers held opponents to under one-earned run per ballgame. "I pitched my best this season and I've been here for 5 years," said Kennett. "After beating Indiana in four straight games I felt real good because I won two of those games." Diane Gentry won the team MVP award for the second straight year, which was no surprise to her teammates. "She's always been a competitor and deserves to win the MVP," said assistant coach Thomas. "She helped our team win a lot of games this year." Becky Aimesbury has started for MSU for four years. She was chosen as first team All-Academic and also received Honorable Mention All-Big Ten. It was her years of leadership that made her a winner at MSU. Receiving first team All-Big Ten honors were shortstop Tracy Beadlescomb and junior Tracy Ba­ ker. Baker was second on the team with a .273 batting average. Sheila Ovenhouse, who was also All-Aca­ demic Big Ten as a sophomore, led the team in batting with a .310 average. Jenkins leaves MSU after being voted by her teammates as Most Spirited. Head coach Gloria Becksford spent some time in Central America as part of a program designed to help other ballplayers adjust to playing "competitive softball." The rest of the women's softball team will be playing in summer leagues that will help them stay in shape for next season. "I myself will be playing in the same league as some of the girls," assistant coach Thomas said. "We start practicing as a team when everyone comes back to school in September and again in January. I think the girls know that we have a chance of winning the Big Ten next year, so they'll prob­ ably work that much harder over the summer months." Indiana, Northwestern and Minne­ sota tied for the Big Ten champion­ ship during the '86 campaign and with MSU only one game behind that mark, they will be a sure bet to compete for the title next season. "The talent has been there all the time, it's just going back to the ba­ sics and fundamentals that won games for us this year," Thomas said. "The confidence level wasn't there in the past years, but this year's team started to believe in themselves and with the extra con­ ditioning we have instituted, we'll be ready for anyone." — Thomas Watts PLAY BALL.

Photos by Sports Information SPARTANS ENJOYED SECOND MOST SUCCESSFUL SEASON Magic is back The 1986 edition of MSU baseball fulfilled its promise of finishing over the .500 mark when they posted a 28-26-1 record and a third-place fin­ ish in the East Division of the Big Ten. Fourth-year coach Tom Smith, who took the Spartans to their sec­ ond most successful season in the history of MSU baseball in 1984, lost that magic last season before com­ ing back this year with a successful 1986 campaign. "We figured on winning more games than we lost this year," Smith said. "I said at the beginning of the year that we would win some ball games. Beating Michigan and Indiana was gratifying. Both of them made it into the Big Ten playoffs." "There were a lot of good signs this year, we had freshman and sophomores that really contributed and they should continue to use that experience for next year. Our top seniors came through for us. (Bill) Gavin had a great year at third base and (Bill) Hanis did the job for us catching." Gavin was named to the third team All-Big Ten after breaking the single-season hits record at MSU. After transferring from Eastern Michigan over two years ago, Gavin has come into his own at MSU. "I love playing baseball at MSU," Gavin said. "I've become a better player since transferring." Senior catcher Bill Hanis was named to the second team All-Big Ten. Centerfielder Mike Davidson was also named to the second team All-Big Ten as a sophomore. Last year the Spartans finished the season with a disappointing 22-35 record and last place in their divi­ sion. This year they were eight games ahead of last year's pace and only two games shy of Smith's best record at MSU. The Spartans 7-9 record in the Big Ten is five games better than last year's mark of 2-14. But for the sec­ ond straight season, the Spartans missed the Big Ten playoffs. The Spartans split a home double­ header with the Wolverines during the regular season. This was an hon­ or for MSU, since Michigan cap­ tured the Big Ten title. The Spartans would love to knock Michigan out of the top spot in the Big Ten. "I think with the summer league pro­ grams and some new recruits, fresh­ man that can fill in, MSU has just as good of a chance to win the Big Ten title as Michigan does," Smith said. Assistant Coach Jeff Kawaski thinks that some new recruits will fill some holes. "We have some new kids coming here next year that should contribute right away," Kawaski said. "We'll be losing Gavin and Hanis but hopefully those spots can be filled. I know we have the ingredients to win more baseball games." According to Smith, much of this year's success was pitching. "We settled into a consistent pitching ro­ tation, this helped the other players adjust. There was a lot more organi­ zation as the year went on." "The guys will be playing summer baseball this year, this should help them out considerably," Smith said. "The competition will be good for the kids. You just can't get enough of baseball and playing in these summer leagues will only make you a better ball player." — Thomas Watts Scoreboard MSU 4 1 3 3 8 9 9 4 4 0 3 5 7 5 8 2 9 8 11 22 5 5 8 6 10 4 3 6 8 1 1 8 10 7 6 4 6 2 7 4 1 8 7 3 7 4 3 2 6 2 6 6 2 3 10 ST.

Odessa Smalls practices the 400m relay race at MSU's track. Smalls set a Big Ten Conference record in the 100m and 200m races. The great outdoors didn't seem so great to the women's track and field team this year, as they posted a strong indoor record but fared not as well outdoors. At the same time, men's track boasted some individual achievers on both fronts. Outstanding individual perfor­ mances highlighted the women's in­ door season, which ran from Jan. 12 to March 15, followed by the outdoor season. Debbie Hartline won the Big Ten indoor championship in the high jump with a jump of five feet, 11 1/4 inches, and Vanessa Thompson took third in the Big Ten indoor competi­ tion in the 300 meter. Joanna Childress won the Big Ten indoor championship in the 60 yard hurdles and set a Big Ten indoor record in that event. The track and field team partici­ pated in no dual meets and score is rarely kept at collegiate track events, but Assistant Coach Bruce Waha said one high point of the in­ door season was the Jan. 17 meet at Western Ontario where the MSU women scored more than 130 points, winning over several other schools. Expectations for the outdoor sea­ son ran high after the women's in­ door success, but an unusual amount of injuries plagued the team later in the spring and Waha called the outdoor season a "disappoint­ ment." "We had a lot of problems with absences due to grades or injuries," said Waha. Nonetheless, the season of star individual performances was culminated with three MSU women participating in the NCAA championships in Indiana June 4-7. Debbie Hartline qualified for the NCAA high jump, Mary Shea in the 10,000 meter and Odessa Smalls qualified in both the 100 and 200 meter dashes. Smalls set a Big Ten Conference record in the 100 meter and 200 meter and also set a Big Ten record in the 300 meter at the Indoor Big Ten Championships March 1 and 2 at Ohio State. Men's track and field also was marked by strong individual perfor­ mances, including NCAA qualifier Marvin Parnell in the 400 meter hurdles. Another barrier was broken, not with speedy times across the finish line, but with the barriers between the sexes when in February the Michigan State Relays, which showcased only men for 63 years, WOMEN'S TRACK & FIELD.

A lack of depth, strong doubles competition, the loss of two players and a string of heartbreaking losses put the Spartan's men's team in the cellar. These are the kinds of set­ backs that the team hopes to over­ come next year. To talk to the players one gets the image of a more exciting season that the scoreboard and final ranking suggest. "Except for one or two cases, we were never blown off the court," said sophomore Fernando Belmar. "There were a lot of three setters." It was characteristic of the netters to play strong singles, only to be de­ feated in doubles competition. A case in point can be found in the matches with Iowa at the Big Ten meet. The Spartans were on the verge of winning what had be­ come a highly desired ninth place berth, having won games 1,2,3, and 5 in singles competition. One win in doubles would have put them over the top and out of the cellar —but this did not materialize. "I'm happy to win my individual matches, but it's very frustrating when nothing comes of those wins," Belmar said. What does the future hold for the Spartans? "Obviously, we have to work at doubles," sophomore Paul Mesaros. The netters also hope to develop more as a team unit and not just a handful of talented individuals. For­ tunately, most of this season's players will be returning next year. Women's Tennis was also hungry for improvement, and with a new coach they seemed well on their way. The season record for the squad was 14-12, an improvement over last year's 9-15 record. And coach Heather Mactaggart is predicting a higher finish next year. "The team is getting stronger ev­ ery day," Mactaggart said. "They're working hard and playing with de­ termination." Both men's and women's tennis teams should benefit from the con­ struction of the $1.9 million tennis facility which was completed in January. Perhaps most importantly, the Spartan squad has a great desire to turn things around. "We've been told we have the best facilities in the country and even the world," Drobac said. "It's embarrassing to hear someone say, 'Michigan State tennis always finishes last'," Belmar said. "It's embarrassing to us on the team and embarrassing to the school." If the hunger for victory counts at all, the men's netters have some­ thing going for them. "We'll work on it," said coach Stan Drobac. "We'll get better." Drobac stressed that the building is for everyone, not just the varsity players. Students can get to the facilities by taking a bus, he said. — Andrew Malonis BRUTAL BACKHAND.

Although the Lacrosse team fin­ ished with a record of 7-8, their conference record was 4-1. Their only loss in the Great Lakes Lacrosse Conference was to Ohio State. The team was able to win the League championship for the first time in their history by defeating tough challengers in their conference. "Winning the league was one of the best surprises we had all sea­ son," said senior co-captain Mike Gabor. "After we lost to Ohio State, we knew we had to beat Notre Dame." Head coach Rich Kimball also cited the Notre Dame game as the turning point of the season. "Our best victory was over Notre Dame," said Kimball. "We hadn't beaten them since 1981 and in or­ der to win the league we had to win that game." The Spartans were tough against the Irish. "We were down 9-3 in the third quarter and came back to win 12-11 in the last five seconds," Kimball said. "It was the best game we played all year and it was in the most important situation — that made it even better." Individual successes were a big part of the team's success. Adam Mueller, Dan Christ, Rex Lynne and Greg Yengo were selected to the All-Star 1st team for the Great Lakes Lacrosse Conference (GLLC). John Giampetroni and Terry Monahan made 2nd team in the GLLC. Junior Dan Christ was selected to the 1st team and freshman John Giampetroni made 2nd team for the Midwest Lacrosse Association. The Most Improved player was Dave Levann, Dan Christ was Most Valuable and the Rookie of the Year was David Stein. The Dented Hel­ met award was given to Fred Saint- Amour and Adam Mueller was the Unsung Hero. "We graduated several players last season and had to depend on younger players this season," said Coach.

They intertwined and flowed together — neither would have been the same without the other. It was the trademark of our community. Several issues changed and shaped the city. New projects were one thing that had a bearing on MSU and East Lansing. The plans for construction of the new Breslin Student Events Center raised some ire in East Lansing, as people predicted that it would take away some of the city's parking. Ripples of protest also began when East Lansing passed a mandatory no-smoking law which went into effect April 1. A wave of protest from businessmen at first accompanied the decision, but after a short time it relented. But businessmen complied with the flow of progress when East Lansing finalized plans to build a new hotel and shopping center in the heart of the city. Throughout the year the city and university melded, as both East Lansing and officials tried to bring about a better flow between the two. Meetings were held, and in the end it seemed that the cooperation between them was in­ creased. Inside Community 212 Banners on Grand River wel­ comed students back in Septem­ ber 218 Residence Halls enjoyed a Night on the Town in April Community was paramount in 1986. Together, the city and University worked toward a smooth exchange of ideas. It was all a part of the community's flow. — Barb Isaacs photo by La Vern Pennington THE POPULAR AVENUE "Grand River put me in debt." Whether it was going for a waffle cone at Melting Moments, a Coney Dog at the Dog Pound or shopping at Jacobsons, students had one thing in common: they were all Grand Rivering. Grand River, the dividing line between the city of East Lansing and campus, was always a mass of activ­ ity. On warm days people jammed the sidewalks to windowshop eat at restaurants or just to people watch. "I like to stroll on Grand River because of the cool shops and res­ taurants," said Andrea Morris, Humanities Pre-Law sophomore. "Plus there's a wide variety of peo­ ple you can meet up with." Other people chose to sit at the outdoor cafes, sipping cool drinks while soaking up the rays. The Pea­ nut Barrel, Taj Mahal and Bunches were popular outdoor cafes. Then there were those who strict­ ly went to Grand River with one thing on their mind: to spend mon­ ey on clothes. Jacobsons and Benetton proved to be very popular stores for many students. According to Amy Frazier, clinical sociology sophomore, "Grand River put me in debt. I'm from Pennsylva­ nia and we don't have stores like Benetton. I love their styles, so I al­ ways shop there." During spring term, hotter weather brought more people out­ doors and ice cream business boomed. On a typical spring night, one could expect to stand in line for 15-20 minutes at either of Grand River's two ice cream shops: Melting Moments or Confection Connection. "Melting Moments is the biggest reason I go to Grand River. It's got the best homemade ice cream around," said Lisa Vachon, educa­ tion sophomore. "Even though I live a mile away, the waffle cones and ice cream are worth the trip." While strolling on Grand River, students were also able to enjoy New York style Coney Dogs at the Hot Dog Stand next to Campus Corners or they had an opportunity to buy flowers for their sweethearts at the Flower Stand. Late nights, after bar and party hopping, Grand River was still in full swing. The Coney Island Dog Pound, owned by advertising senior Wayne Wudyka, stayed open until four a.m. to feed hungry students. Whatever the reason, and stu­ dents had many, Grand River was the most popular place to be. — Draga Bakmaz THE STRIP. Restaurants were a popular meeting place on Grand River.

"No, we like to think we are professionals, but we're just ama­ teurs." "I mean, does your fraternity have a professional side to it? Do all of your members have to have one certain major like business or engi­ neering?" Although social fraternities added a certain spark to campus life, pro­ fessional fraternities also had their own special flavor. Like other fraternities, they offered the opportunity to meet many people, and also brotherhood and camarderie. But, they also had qualities that set them apart. "Belonging to Alpha Kappa Psi lets me form business contacts in the professional world," said management senior Jodi Ritman. "People come in from IBM and speak on interviewing tactics and things like that. "We also got to know our faculty," she said. "So, if we had a problem, it was easier for us to look for help."

However, professional fraternities were not all work and no play. They, too, had a social side. For example, Society of Profes­ sional Journalists, Sigma Delta Chi, which was made up of about 50 journalism majors, revived a tradi­ tion Spring term when they challenged the journalism faculty to a softball game. Members also attended a national convention in Arizona and were in­ volved in the Michigan Interscholas- tic Press Association convention for high school students, held at the Kellogg Center April 25. Kappa Kappa Psi sent small bands to functions around the city and University to perform. "We were more into serving, getting things done and having as much fun as possible while doing it," said tele­ communications senior and presi­ dent Mike Melnick. Alpha Kappa Psi mixed a little business with pleasure when members went on a field trip to Chicago. They attended a presenta­ tion during the day and went out at night. Term parties, a dinner and dance, and a champagne party also served as morale boosters for Alpha Kappa Psi members. In order to join professional fra­ ternities, members had to meet certain eligibility requirements such as grade point, major and payment of membership fees. "Professional fraternities were the best way to get involved in the so­ cial, as well as the professional side of MSU," Ritman said. "I'm really glad I joined." — Diane Havens STORY Experienc e the Difference OLDS - NISSAN - ISUZU 3165 E.

Snow volleyball and snowball fights were both popular activities students partici­ pated in during mild winter weather to ease the dorm-room blues which usually set in during winter term. Staff hangs tough We started from scratch. Every year­ book seems to have some kind of sto­ ry behind it —how it had no support, no funding, or was extremely difficult to produce for one of a million reasons. This note is to explain about our yearbook, and how most of these circumstances —and more —truly do apply. MSU's student government, ASMSU, voted the Red Cedar Log a zero bud­ get because they felt the book was a poor financial risk because of past poor management. That was the first, and most crucial, stumbling block. From there we found Inter-Colle­ giate Press, who offered to fund us up front —a notion almost unheard of in the yearbook business. We had no advisor, no support from the journalism school and support from only one member of ASMSU —Rocky Beckett (in the beginning.) We started out with only nine staff­ ers, which quickly dwindled to six. To make matters more complicated, the book was not even begun until January and was due in early June. Most yearbooks take nearly a full year to be compiled before printing. And due to the 1985 RCL, which arrived nine months late and full of in­ accuracies, our attempts at marketing a yearbook were dampened. More than 50 letters were received and many irate phone calls were fielded by staff­ ers from people who were dissatisfied with the 1985 RCL. As difficult as it was, we tried not to dwell on the past and tried to compile a yearbook which represents journalis­ tic ethics, style and Michigan State Uni­ versity. Due to time and staff constraints, some of our coverage isn't as full as we would have liked. Though we solic­ ited organizations on campus to be covered, not one group submitted their picture. We attended meetings to drum up support, but it didn't seem to help, and we sent letters to every or­ ganization listed among Registered Stu­ dent Organizations, with limited re­ sponse. So far, this note gives the impression that the 1986 RCL was not a success. All of the staffers come from yearbooks of award-winning caliber, and we applied what we knew. We produced it in 120 days, with limited staff and very little support. We sold nearly 1,000 copies of the 99th edition, even though the cards were stacked against us in a number of ways. We had only one photographer, and we often scrambled for photos of what we missed with our late start. We would like to thank The State News photography staff, Mary Platt and Bonnie Zell, Sensations, Sports In­ formation and MSU News Bureau for saving our neck. We were a group of people who didn't want to see the 99-year tradition of the Red Cedar Log die. Now that it's over, we guess we really didn't mind that much. — Jan 1986 Red Cedar Log Janis Matheson.......Editor-in-chief Phil Peters................Design editor Michael V. Ilich ....

Colophon Volume 99 of Michigan State University's Yearbook, The Red Cedar Log was printed using offset lithography by the Inter-Collegiate Press of Shawnee Mission, Kansas. The 228 page book was printed on 80lb. matte paper with the exception of the first sig­ nature which was printed on 100 lb. enamel pa­ per. Body Copy was set in 10 pt. Optimist with the exception of theme copy which utilized 12 pt. Optimist. Captions were set in 8 pt. Opti­ mist Bold, while photo credits were set in 6 pt. Optimist Bold. Specific section headline typeface styles were: Student Life, 48 pt. Malibu; Academic- s/Organizations, 48 and 14 pt. Avant Garde; Sen­ iors/Newsmagazine, 30 pt. Ballardvale; Sports, 20 and 48 pt. Optimist Bold. Section styles and layouts were designed by Phil Peters. The "Into the Flow" logo was designed using both Optimist Bold and Chartpak's Mandate 395 and also used a Chartpak grid background. Most black and white photographs were tak­ en, processed and printed by RCL photogra­ phers using Kodak 400 film. The Sports Information Office supplied the staff with sports team photos and some sports candids, while Yearbook Associates of Millers Falls, Mass. shot and supplied the staff with the 1842 senior mugs. Color photography was printed to size by Custom Photographic of Lansing. Spot Colors were chosen from the Pantone Matching System. PMS 347 "MSU Green" was used as a spot color for the opening pages (1-7) and division pages (8-9, 44-45, 92-93, 152-153, 204-205). PMS 468-C was used as a background color for the opening and the endsheets. The book's cover was embossed and used Mission grain on forest green material. The cov­ er also had a silver hot foil stamp. Volume 99 of the Red Cedar Log sold for $25 post paid. The RCL's offices were in rooms 308 and 311A Student Services Bldg., East Lansing, Ml 48824. The Red Cedar Log maintains membership in the Associated Collegiate Press Association. SAY NO TO PORN.

Photo by Towne Courier Waves of Commotion If there was one word to summarize the second half of the 1985-86 year it would be sports. Spartan spirit gushed as MSU enjoyed a Cinderella year in sports. "Its really been a season to be treasured/' said Athletic Director Doug Weaver. Freshman swimmer Mary Schoenle created quite a splash for the women's swim team. Schoenle set five indi­ vidual school records and was part of five MSU relay records. On top of that, she earned two honorable All- American awards, a Big Ten Championship in the 200 and individual medley and was named female Spartan Athlete of the Year. No one had high hopes for the men's basketball team INTO THE Flow before the season began. Coach Jud Heathcote had nicknamed it his "doughnut” team because he lacked a center. To everyone's surprise, standout scoring by senior guard Scott Skiles kept the wins flowing in MSU's favor, which streamlined the Spartans to the NCAA "Sweet 16.” But on March 21, with MSU leading Kansas during the NCAA quarterfinals, the Spartan flow of luck ended. With 2:21 left, the clock froze 15 seconds — enabling the Jayhawks to tie the score and send the game into overtime, defeating MSU 96-86. Hockey had a similar success story. On March 29, MSU iced out Harvard University 6-5 at the Civic Center in Providence, R.I., winning their first national hockey title since 1966. Because MSU was predicted to finish fourth in the league, the spotlight was off the team, All-American Mike Donnelly said. "We had no pressure on us at all and we improved ev­ ery weekend,” Donnelly said. "We surprised a lot of peo­ ple.” Photo by LaVern Pennington PEDDLING PROFES­ SOR. Popular eco­ nomics professor C.

Photo by Patrick O'Brien Waves of Commotion While sports fans were delighted with the season's flow of wins, controversy and scandal rocked the University's reputation. President John DiBiaggio's Executive Assistant David Kimball was charged with gross indecency with a male at an area rest stop. A warrant was issued March 18, charg­ ing Kimball with one count on March 3. At the time the warrant was issued Kimball was in San Diego, Calif. He re­ turned on March 20 and turned himself over to police for arrest and arraignment. The DiBiaggio administration weathered the storm of public criticism, maintaining Kimball's innocence and grant­ ing him an indefinite leave of absence. Scandal seeped across the national new news media as Box Office Spectaculars, a registered student or­ ganization, announced plans to show "Spartan School for Sex," an alleged pornographic movie produced by and starring MSU students. The movie revealed only one MSU student on the screen —who was full-clothed — on May 30-31. INTO THE Flow The State News reported the film's first night showing netted the group $1,789. MSU filed an injunction to ban the film's showing the second night, but the group showed a re-edited version called "School for Sex." Director of Public Relations Terry Denbow said he could not give an instant evaluation of how the film has damaged MSU's image, but said the film is not a valid representation of the student body, and like many administrators criticized the media for overplaying the story. "For every negative media event this year I can give you nine stories that are positive," Denbow said. Photo by Michael Stassus SPECIAL HUGS.

Photo by David Loney Photo by MSU News Bureau In the midst of the pornography controversy, MSU battled another setback. On May 31, a fire ripped through the sixth floor of East Holmes Hall, causing more than $30,000 in damage and sending 34 students to local hospitals. The 5:30 a.m. blaze, which forced the evacuation of 600 students, was the worst in University history. At yearbook deadline the cause of the fire had not been determined but fire investigators were con­ sidering the possibility of arson. But in the end, the year's controversy lessened as June 6 and 7 overflowing joy and bubbling champagne marked the graduation of 4,518 de­ gree candidates. The champagne and joy were symbolic of the day, which marked the graduates' launch into life and into the flow. — Janis Matheson AND THE Flow CONTINUED...
