Measuring Time

Passing Through Time As the old pictures on this page indicate, D ick­ inson S tate U niversity m easures its p ast by its arch itectu re and, m ost im portantly, by its stu ­ dents. This m easure of tim e continues in a sense each decade, each year.

D uring the C entennial year in N o rth D ak o ta’s history, during the 1989-90 academ ic term , D ick­ inson S tate students, repeating in som e ways past tim es, m arked tim e in their own ways, m any of them traditional. This year students p articip ated in the H om ecom ing P arad e and activities, and the The university as it ap p eared when it was D ickinson S ta te T e a c h e r’s College.

In sports, the football team won its conference and com peted in national playoffs while th e tennis team also won its conference.

Tough Times And Tax Referrals Serious problem s faced N o rth D akotans in the 1989-90 year, and a tax referral issue prom ised to change the state o f higher ed ucation in th e state.

D uring the 1980s, ru ral econom ies in the N o rth ­ ern Plains fared m uch worse th a n o th er national econom ies. A ccording to the C o rp o ratio n for En­ terprise D evelopm ent, Iowa led the nation in pop­ ulation loss with N eb rask a, M innesota, South D a­ kota, and N o rth D akota close behind. N o rth D a­ kota was in the bottom ten in term s o f ru ral ea rn ­ ings growth.

An advisory com m ittee sum m arizing the find­ ings of the N o rth D akota Vision 2000 C om m ittee, a panel which exam ined problem s and the fu tu re of the state, offered som e sobering facts: N o rth D akota is the only state in the nation to have fewer residents today than it did in 1930. Per capita incom e is now 15 percent below the national av er­ age. In the last th ree years, 17,000 people between the ages of 22-55 left N o rth D akota. A survey of 600 of the sta te ’s top 1987 high school g rad u ates attending colleges in the state found th a t 90 p er­ cent o f them think they will have to leave the state to find jobs. T he m edian age was 31 years in 1987.

T he state was the only one in the nation to reduce state aid for cities, counties and schools from 1982 to 1988. A ccording to th e N ation al A ssociation of S ta te B udget officers, sta te aid to education fell 3.17 percent while nationw ide, state governm ents increased school spending by 57 p er­ cent. In 1988 36.5 percent of N o rth D ak o ta’s state budget went to elem entary and secondary ed u c a­ tion and o th er form s of local governm ent, while the national average was 42.4 percent.

In its C entennial Y ear, N o rth D akota received some national atten tio n for its problem s and a few oversights. A Newsweek article “ A m erica’s O u t­ back’’ painted a bleak pictu re o f the high N o rth ­ ern Plains: “ T he region m ost em b lem atic o f the n ation’s gran d eu r and stren g th is, today, the re­ gion most exploited and ignored.”

A ddressing the issue of boom and bust cycles,

Newsw eek asserts th a t “ A h undred years o f b ack ­ breaking work have only reduced the C entennial W est to a p erm anen t o u tb a ck .”

Proposals to the a re a ’s situation w ere quick in com ing. A U N D econom ist envisioned a big-gam e safari park to a ttra c t in tern atio n al tourists, and F ran k and D eborah Popper, two R utgers U n iv er­ sity professors, seeing em igration accelerating, proposed th e idea o f a B uffalo C om m ons, an im ­ mense national p ark covering 10 states east o f the Rockies.

F u rth e r national a tten tio n cam e to th e area when N o rth D akota, S o u th D akota, along with O klahom a, were om itted from the R and M c N a l­ ly’s newly published world atlas, because of, a c ­ cording to R and M cN ally officials, space lim ita­ tions. A t the state level, a printing gaffe in the 1990-1991 O fficial H ighw ay M ap from the state tourism division pictured a large m otorhom e driv­ ing in th e B adlands on th e left side o f th e road.

T he state also decided tax m easures, which some think will fundam entally alte r the n atu re o f h igher edu catio n in the state. M ore th an 215,000 voters in a D ecem ber tax referral election over­ whelm ingly voted “ no” to eight b allot m easures, som e of w hich would have provided tax m oney for ed ucation. T he defeated tax m easures would have raised the state sales tax from 5 percent to 6 percent, increased th e state incom e tax from 14 to 17 percen t o f w hat a tax p ay er owed in federal taxes and raised the state tax on a gallon o f gaso­ line from 17 cents to 20 cents.

A lthough N o rth D akotans had been paying the higher incom e and sales taxes before the election, the successful referral suspended those taxes. The tax losses were estim ated to cost the state treasu ry SI 10 million over its tw o-year budgeting period and raised th e issue o f state cuts in funding for h igher edu cation to offset th e changed financial picture.

Locally, the tax referrals m eant th a t Dickinson S ta te U niversity was required to c u t $1,026,475

from its biennium budget. A ccording to Dr. A bert W atrel, a 7 percent salary faculty salary ii crease scheduled for the year would not go ini effect and would save th e school $176,754. Ai cording to Alvin Binstock, vice-president for bus ness affairs, there would be a reduction of $70,0C in operating expenses and $21,210 in equipmei expenses. The rest o f D S U ’s cuts would be offsi by $272,845 in an ticipated additional revenue ri suiting from additional (90-91) tuition increase $314,291 from a carryover from the last bienniun and from excess tuition resulting from enrollmen higher than those an ticipated in the cu rren t biei nium . In addition, $41,375 planned for critic; area salary adjustm ents would be elim inated, an $130,000 from various part-tim e pool positior would be elim inated.

To offset the p rojected budget deficits, the Stat B oard o f H igher E ducation approved $11 millio w orth o f tuition increases to offset the $27 millio in budget cuts. T uition jum ped $300 per year fc residents of N o rth D akota. Slight increases in ti ition would m ean th a t D SU students would b paying $1,541 in tuition in 1991 and $1,603 i 1992. Such increases followed a 5-year trenc which saw u n d erg rad u ate tuition increase an avei age of I 3 percent, according to a S tate Board c H igher E ducation research associate.

In M ay, in responding to the budget cuts, th university issued term inal contracts to five facult in the Highw ay T ransportation and A gricultur program s, co n tracts which could result in the los o f the ag ricu ltu re and trucking program s.

A ccording to a prepared press release fror DSU public relations office, the term inal cor tra c ts will m ean th a t these faculty will lose thei jobs if funding is not available and the loss of staf will result in the closing of the departm ents.

Special Events

Homecoming features new events; Hawks roll over Valley City; Oberlander and Dobitz reign.

TRADITION OF PRIDE “T

radition of Pride” may have been the theme for Dickinson State University’s 1989 Homecoming, but from October 16 to 22 many changes took place as well.

Kerry Oberlander from Dickinson, N .D ., and Teresa Dobitz from N ew England, N .D ., the crowned Chief and Princess of 1989, reigned over the week’s activities.

All the T-shirts and almost all the buttons, which helped benefit the week’s events, were sold.

Carmen Braaten, a Reeder, N .D ., junior and chairperson of the Homecoming Com­ mittee, said, “Although candy bar sales were down, we (the Homecoming Committee) were quite pleased with the outcom e.”

Minor changes were made in the events that occurred during Homecoming. A tten­ dance went up when the pep rally was moved from the Student Center to Scott Gymnasi­ um. Two dances usually were scheduled dur­

ing Homecoming week, but the Homecoming Committee decided to eliminate the Saturday evening dance because of low attendance.

New events added to Homecoming week were the slam dunk competition, softball game, and a jello food fight. The first annual food-fighting competition, sponsored by Phi Sigma Phi Honor Fraternity, featured cheer­ leaders, football players, and faculty member teams.

Although the scene was a mess at the end of the competition, Amy Reinhiller, a senior from Bowman, N .D ., and member of the Ceremonial of the Homecoming Committee, said, “The jello fight was terrific. I had a great time.”

Debbie Hourigan, a junior from Lemman, S.D ., and Secretary of the Homecoming Committee, said, “ N ot too many people showed for the softball game, but for those who did, they had a lot of fun. As for the food

fight, we will probably be having that annua ly from now on.”

The Homecoming football game matche the Blue Hawks against the Valley City Stat University Vikings at Whitney Stadium in battle between two undefeated N D C A C cor ference teams. Last season the Vikings brok D S U ’s 29-game winning streak with a scor of 21-7. But this year, the Hawk players de stroyed their competition by a score of 27-( Coach Hank Biesoit said, “ I was mildl surprised that we won with a score of 27-0. thought that there would have been a littl more scoring in the game. But I was conf dent that we would play well and that would be a good game. From a spectator standpoint, where I was, it was an excitin game to watch and a good game for th Hawks.”

Ritual dates back to 1928; Student body selects participants; Dance symbolizes school’s tradition

CEREMONIAL ickinson State University’s Ceremoni­ al has survived its uncertain begin­ nings and remains today as a display of or, strength, and leadership for the students of DSU. The Ceremonial requires a great deal of planning and organizing, which begins in A u­ gust. “Forty-two students were involved in planning Homecoming festivities,” said Car­ men Braaten, Homecoming chairperson. “Of those forty-two, five concentrate totally on the Ceremonial.”

The Ceremonial began on October 13, 1928, when it became a part of Homecoming events at Dickinson State Norm al school.

According to the Prairie Sm oke, on October 13, the school celebrated its first annual homecoming with an Indian Pow-Wow pa­ rade, football game, barbecue, and dance.

Prairie Sm oke presented the first Ceremo­ nial as part of Homecoming in 1927-28.

Dressed in Indian garments in celebration of their Class Day, some Advanced Course graduates planned and carried out an event which they called an “ Indian Pow-W ow.”

They danced around a bonfire that they had built on the oval court in front of the main building. Their celebration included perform­

D

ing musicals and reading poetry. They also threw farewell tokens into the fire.

These unofficial beginnings resulted in an hon­ official part in the Homecoming celebration the following year. The 1927-28 Indian Pow­ wow honored Dan Fitzloff (Fitzlaught) as “ Pow-wow C h ie f’ and Carol Steen as “ Pow­ wow Squaw” because they had the best cos­ tume.

By 1930 the Chief and Princess were cho­ sen by election from the Student Senate, and the Ceremonial continued to be an official and important part of the Homecoming fes­ tivities.

“Today’s procedure is more complicated,” Braaten said. “First the entire student body participates in the selection of the Royal C hief and Princess. All seniors are eligible.

The ten men and women with the most votes from the list of seniors are presented a second time to the entire student body. From this list the one male and one female with the most votes become the N ew Chief and new Prin­ cess. Those students with the second highest number of votes become the Honorary braves and honorary maidens.”

The elegant ritual has eight episodes and is presented in pantomime.

In episode one the participants — Old Chief and princess, N ew Chief and Princess, maidens and braves — enter the stage. The Old Chief does a Solo dance in honor of his Princess.

In the second episode the maidens and braves do an honor dance to the Old Chief and Old Princess. The Old Chief and Old Princess reluctantly relinquish their symbols o f leadership to the younger, stronger, domi­ nating pair.

In episode three the honor maidens escort the N ew Princess to the Old Princess in order that she might receive the headband of au­ thority.

Likewise, in episode four, the honor braves escort the N ew Chief to the Old Chief in order that he might receive the war bonnet, a symbol of capability and vigor.

The New Chief dances a solo dance to his N ew Princess in the fifth episode. The maid­ ens and braves then do a dance in honor of the N ew Chief and N ew Princess in episode six.

Ray W heeler’s play B uffalo-Alyce p rem iered this year.

Dr. R ay W heeler, D S U English professor, a play­ w right for seven years, th is y ear saw his m ost recen t play Buffalo-Alyce enjoy regional success w ith p er­ form ances a t both D S U and the H e rita g e C e n te r in B ism arck.

W heeler explained th a t a fte r a p erfo rm an ce of A dagio West, a previous play o f his, a n actress friend a p p ro ach ed him with th e suggestion th a t he w rite a play for an all-fem ale cast. “ T h a t’s w here it sta rte d ,” said W heeler. “ I w anted to w rite a play w ith all w om en. I w anted it to be an a c to r’s play. T h a t’s one th a t offers a lot o f th in g s for ac to rs to do to show o ff th e ir skills.”

W heeler said th a t he does n o t rem em b er w here th e idea for th e them e cam e from . “ In m y novel, B uffalo-Alyce, I have two old ladies in c h a p te r called “ T w a corbies” — from an old m ed i­ eval ballad. I t m eans “ T w o C row s.” A nyw ay, I have these two sisters in th a t novel an d th a t m ay be w here th e idea sta rte d . I d o n ’t rem em b er.”

W heeler first trie d th e play a t a cold read in g with an aud ien ce a t D S U . “ W e had a surprisingly large g ro u p o f people tu rn o u t for th a t, an d a fte r it w as over, th ere was a tr e ­ m endous discussion a b o u t the play — a b o u t th e is­ sues th a t th e play b ro u g h t u p.”

H e was en co u rag ed by th e response, he said, be­ cause m ost o f his professional friends h ad advised him not to w rite th e play. “ T hey w ould tell m e, for instance, ‘T h is is a subject th a t people do n ot w ant to co n fro n t.’ I t is a play,” said W heeler, “ th a t deals w ith two su b jects th a t are absolutely taboo: th a t o f old age, an d th e w hole ques­ tion o f w h eth er o r n ot life could be so u n b earab le for a n elderly person th a t she w ould w an t to ta k e h e r own life.” “ So I th o u g h t th e play was doom ed from the begin­ ning,” W heeler said. “ B ut, I kept seeing this in the p ap ers — elderly people co m m ittin g suicide — a n d

I ’m to ld by my sociologist friend th a t this is ju st the tip o f th e iceberg, th a t literally th o u san d s m ore are doing it each y ear.”

W heeler said although nobody w rites plays ju st to p u t them in a closet, he nevertheless feels com pelled to w rite a b o u t issues th a t speak to him . “ I ca n ’t write a b o u t things th a t d o n ’t speak to m e. B ut, at th e sam e tim e, when I w rite I d o n ’t w orry a b o u t th em e or the play’s social issues. So I tell th e sto ry an d th en hope the play will speak to th e issue behind it — and it d id .”

A fter the reading a t D S U , W h eeler told Ev Albers, d irecto r o f th e N o rth D ak o ta H u m an ities’ Council, a b o u t th e discussion th a t th e issues in th e play b ro u g h t forth. A lb ers suggested to W h eeler th a t he ready it for p roduction a n d th a t th e council m ight use it in one o f its program s. “ T h en , last y e a r,” W h eeler said, “ Ev told m e th at he was going to have this du al council with S outh D ak o ta, an d why n ot p u t this play u p , if it w ere ready, as a hum anities p ro g ra m .” “ W e p ut it into produ ctio n here to kind of get w arm ed up, an d then we w ent B ism arck an d did two perform ances; one for th e C o n feren ce, an d one for th e public.”

W heeler said, “ A fter th e o u r B ism arck p erfo r­ m ances, I was so happy for th e acto rs (Je a n W aldera, M a rg a re t B a rn h a rt, an d A n ita F ra ase). W e had a full house, an d they g ot a stan d in g o v ation.”

W heeler is now w orking on th ree new plays. “ Two o f them deal w ith h ard social issues,” he said. “ O ne o f th em is a play a b o u t A m erican Indians. M y plays alw ays deal w ith people who a re for som e reason shut o u t o f society. I ju st c a n ’t g et over th e way Indians — an d old people by the way — are ju st sh u t out!”

BREAK A LEG! esides its other perform ances, T h e T h eatre D epartm ent presented two prize-w inning Jram as and a comedy.

Crimes o f the Heart, a P ulitzer Prize winning play by Beth H enley, centered around th ree sisters who had gathered together aw aiting news o f their tying g randfather.

O ne of eight cast m em bers who perform ed in the Loft, P atricia Beaudoin, a ju nio r, said, “ It was j good experience because it’s close-up and every­ body can see w hat you’re doing. A t first I was kind of nervous but after awhile you get used to it, and it’s nice to have th e audience rig h t th ere in front of you.”

Dr. H ard in A asand, English professor, per­ form ed in th e play as a senator. “ I had a g reat tim e, bu t I’m not sure ab o u t th e au d ience,” said A asand, tongue-in-cheek.

“T he story points o u t th e rights and wrongs within o u r society,” said Jo e L egate, th eatrical in stru cto r and the d irecto r o f th e play. “ I respect those people who take care o f he m entally h an d i­ capped, b u t a t the sam e tim e I find it very fru stra t­ ing too because conceptually we’re trying to help these individuals fit into o u r society, b u t to a large extent, I thin k o ur society w ants th e m entally h andicapped o u t of the w ay.”

The Miser, a classic F rench farce by th e play­

w right M oliere, pited m oney against love. Rich H ap to n stall as H arp ag o n loves m oney and is de­ term in ed to m arry M arian e, played by M ary Jane K uivanen-A der.

T he sm all changes to th e b u dget were due to either carry-overs o f last sem ester’s m onies or substantial reasons for increases, said C ia v a r­ ella.

Two new program s, In tern atio n al S tu d en ts and Film Festival were added to th e b udget and allocated $500 each, said C iavarella.

Prairie Sm oke received $20,500, an increase of $2500 from the previous year.

T he athletic d ep artm en t had a carry over of $10,000 from the 1989-90 school year, said Steve M errigan, chairperson for th e F inance Com m ission. T he ath letic d ep a rtm e n t was the only organization to decrease its b u dget re ­ quest, he said. “ T he ath letics d ep artm e n t re­ ceived m ore th an it requested because it

In the C am pus A ctivity B oard budget, $6,800 w ent for stu d en t dances.

A ccording to Alvin B instock, vice-president for business affairs, a full-tim e stu d en t who is a resident o f N o rth D akota pays $591 in tuition, an activity fee o f $82, and a health service fee o f $6.

Mall planned for campus T he D SU F oundation is planning a V eteran’s M em orial to honor those D SU vets who served in the m ilitary.

Plans call for constructing a m all in front of M ay H all once funds are available, according to V ice-P resident o f D evelopm ent Bill Goetz.

T he p roject will consist of tw o flag poles, several types o f flora, landscaping, signs, and flood lights. T he p roject is estim ated to cost approxim ately $5,000.

Pomeroy receives teacher award This year’s “T eacher o f the Y ea r” Lily P o­ m eroy tries to be innovative in class. “ I try to stay cu rren t in a rt projects and activities and incorporate new know ledge,” said Pomeroy.

The aw ard from students m eans different things to her. “ 1 guess it m eans I ’ve been doing the right things in the classroom all this tim e and th a t my students had fun while they learned,” she said, leaning back in her chair, deep in thought.

H er face brightened and she laughed. “ I sup­ pose it was because I was th e m ost obnoxious person a t last y ear’s Jello fight!”

She thinks a good teach er cares a b o u t stu ­ dents and teaches her subject enthusiastically. “ I like to see the light bulb go on above their heads and hear the students say ‘A h!’ ” Pom eroy has lived m ost of her life in M issou­ ri, w here she g rad u ated from C ottey C ollege in N evada, M issouri, which is th e co u n try ’s fourth ranked academ ic ju n io r college. She re­ v iv e d her bachelors and m asters from S outh W est M issouri S tate and K ansas S ta te U n iv er­ sity. She will receive her forthcom ing d o cto rate ’rom the U niversity o f M ississippi.

She was a high school teac h er in T ennessee lu rin g the desegregation years. “ It was fun — guns and knives in the halls with the occasional

K-9 patro l in th e hallw ays,” she said jokingly.

A lthough D S U ’s size allows P om eroy to give h er students m ore personalized atten tio n , she feels th a t one o f th e schools big d isadvantages is the lack of class variety in all areas o f study.

But D ickinson S ta te ’s sm all size appeals to

her. “ I get to know my students. T hey’re not ju s t n u m b ers.” “ I t’s a friendlier atm osphere. K ind of like a big fam ily. W ou ld n ’t you hate to have a family th a t big!”

Center goes smokeless The S tudent Senate voted to m ake th e S tu ­ d en t C enter sm oke-free this year.

Before the S tudent S en ate vote, D SU presi­ d en t Dr. A lbert W atrel and his cab in et voted to m ake the center sm oke-free, following a p eti­ tion from the student governm ent, w hich de­ sired the change because o f th e h ealth issue involved in smoking.

T he S tudent Senate decision sparked some controversy as several D SU students opposed th e decision and announced th eir plans to cir­ culate a petition in regards to th e center. H ow ­ ever, nothing cam e of the petition drive.

Voters approve proposed changes In February 125 student voters am ended the Student A ssociation C onstitution when they considered five proposed changes.

V oters decided to am end A rticle IV, section I P a rt C of the C SA . T he new am endm ent ncreases the pool o f those who m ay m an the soiling places, according to Jim C iavarella, Student S enate advisor.

H e said th a t the previous co nstitution was ielective in who it perm itted to m an the polls.

‘It was so selective th a t the only people were student senators th a t were seeking election in the fall. W e didn’t think th a t was a p p ro p riate .”

T he am endm ent now allows polling places to be m anned by student senators and various o th ­ er persons.

A m endm ent 5 changed the p rocedure for fil­ ing a petition for referral. T he V ice-P resident must now certify petitions w hich m ust b e a r the signatures of 15 percent of the S tu d e n t A ssoci­ ation and be filed w ithin 30 days. A n ad d en ­ dum to A rticle V II, Section, 4, P a rt B of the C SA , the new am endm ent narrow s th e length of tim e in which a petition m ay be filed from two years to 30 days.

A m endm ent 4 changed the way in w hich proposed am endm ents to the stu d en t co n stitu ­ tion could be instituted. N ow a tw o-thirds vo­ ting m ajority of student body may am end it.

Sm oking outside th e cen ter, L isa B eckm an, M yrna M eidinger, an d D ebbie M euchel tak e a break between classes.

Previously, a sim ple voting m ajority could am end the co nstitution. “ B ecause so few people do vote, it was im po rtan t to get tw o-thirds of the people voting to am end a do cu m en t so im ­ p o rta n t as th e c o n stitu tio n ,” C iav arella said.

A m en d m en t 1 was passed, changing A rticle III, Section I P a rt C of the C S A . It designates two senators to be selected by the incom ing freshm an class and one at-larg e sen ato r from the entire stu d en t body.

A m endm ent 2 w hich changed th e them of election for two senators from the incom ing class and an at-larg e sen ato r was initially cast o u t because o f a typog rap h ical erro r on the ballot b u t late r was placed before the students.

T he incom ing freshm an class now shall elect two senators during the second week o f O cto ­ ber and th e at-larg e sen ato r will be elected

during th e final week o f O ctober. “ W e am end th e constitution each y ear,” said C iavarella. “ T hese am endm ents are basically responses to little problem s. T hey’re changes to u p d ate as th e cam pus changes.”

Seniors attend Elderhostel This sum m er D SU again p articipated in the E lderhostel program .

A b o u t 30 persons over 60 years of age from various p arts of the U nited S tates lived in dorm s on the cam pus and attended three classes during the week of Ju n e 24-30.

T h e nation-w ide program features non-cred­ it courses which are especially designed for el­ derly persons. O ne of m any colleges in the sys­ tem , D SU this sum m er offered classes on the N o rth D akota B adlands, a class on ancient m an in N o rth D akota, an d a class on the histo­ ry and cu ltu re o f G erm an ethnic groups.

Senator seeks museum funds A fter visiting D SU in A pril and discussing th e possibility o f a m useum to house the prehis­ toric dinosaur bones th a t professor L arry League has unearthed in M o n tan a and N o rth D akota, Sen. K ent C onrad, D -N .D ., a n ­ nounced th at he would seek federal funding for a dinosaur m useum in Dickinson.

T he m useum would serve as a to u rist draw and would com plem ent sites like F ort Lincoln and M edora, C onrad said.

W here could the university house a display he dinosaur fossils? A taskforce, headed by )r. W inifred Stum p, Dean of the Schools of krts and Sciences, has been investigating the lotential for a m useum on the D ickinson S ta te Jniversity cam pus.

T o get an idea of w hat to build and how it w ould benefit D SU th e m ost, the task fo rce vis­ ited th ree m useum s this year.

Dr. S tu m p said, “ W e first w ent to see the M useum of G eology a t the S outh D akota School of M ines and T echnology because o f its associations as a research center. B ecause it’s an older m useum , we w anted to know w hat they would have done d ifferently in term s of the design o f the m useum . N ex t, we visited the T yrrell M useum in D rum heller, A lb erta, C an ­ ada. It’s a state-ru n p roject with no university association an d its m ain purpose is for to u rist a ttra ctio n . Finally, we visited th e brand-new m useum a t the U niversity o f M o n tan a in Boze­ m an, w hich is associated with the university.”

T he precise location o f the m useum has yet to be d eterm in ed , she said. “ T he legislative g ra n t which provided the ap p ro p riatio n for a feasibility study provided th a t the m useum be built on cam pus,” she said. “ T h ere are several sites on cam pus where the m useum could be located, b u t until we get som e a rc h ite c tu ral studies com pleted, we don’t know w here as o f y et.”

Funding m ay also present a problem for the m useum project. Dr. S tu m p said, “ W e’re talk ­ ing ab o u t several m illions o f dollars to put such a p roject on cam pus. O bviously, the potential for having a m useum is here, but w hether the funding is here is an o th e r m a tte r.”

Festival features documentaries T he 1990 Film Festival featured four docu­ m entaries.

T his year students and faculty viewed Streetwise, a docu m en tary on runaw ays in S e­ a ttle ; Gates o f Heaven, an exam ination o f pet cem eteries; Maria, a film on the life of M aria C allas, fam ous opera singer; and H otel Termi­ nus, a study of th e life and tim es of Klaus B arbie, N azi w ar crim inal.

“T h e idea o f the festival is th a t we ought to expose students to films th a t they’d never be all to see,” said R ay W heeler, English professor and m em ber o f the film festival.

Following a viewing o f th e films in the S tu ­ d en t C en ter, English professors lead a discus­ sion of the film.

T he video cassettes o f th e films are then placed in th e library for future university use.

University offers cassette courses In order to provide continuing ed ucation for outhw estern N o rth D akota, th e C ontinuing Education program a t D SU offered this spring or the first tim e college courses by video casette. “ W e’re doing it to b etter serve the constituncy in the southw estern N o rth D akota a re a ,” aid Dr. W inifred S tum p, directo r o f continung education. “ W ith this appro ach , it will be >ossible for students to begin, to com plem ent

w hat they have, or pursue w hat they are in ter­ ested in.”

T he program offered twelve general studies classes, ranging from political science courses to lite ra tu re courses. S tu m p sees a fu tu re d e­ m and for the p rogram . “ T he response has been very favorable. W e’ve been overw helm ed for requests for b ro ch u res.”

S he thinks eventually th a t the program will expand into the upper degree level course.

N ow , students enroll in the course through the continuing edu catio n program . A lthough the course offers students a chance to view cassettes in th eir area o f in terest at hom e, they still m aintain co n tac t on a regular basis with the in stru cto r, who works with the student and supplem ents the cassette with m aterial and fur­ th er instruction.

Mild winter saves money A relatively mild N o rth D akota w inter aided D ickinson S tate in conserving on fuel costs. “ A mild w inter m ay save the institution some $30,000 to $40,000,” said M ark Lowe, business m anager.

Energy can be costly as the 1988 figure show.

In 1988, the university paid $15,705 for w ater and sewage bills, $233,204 for electricity, $79,191 for gas, and $74,312 for fuel oil. T hese figures totalled $402,412.

In 1989, though, the school spent $369,173 on energy. In the m ost recent year, w ater and sewer expenses (the university used 7969 g a l­ lons o f w ater) cost $16,543. U sing 4,566,422

K W H ’s, the school spent $231,169 on elec tric­ ity. N a tu ra l gas cost $103,460, and fuel and oil (51,431 gallons) cost $18,001.

T h e school used # 6 diesel fuel a t 35 cents a gallon, w hich cost ab o u t o n e-h alf o f # 2 diesel fuel, said Lowe.

A ro u n d the cam pus, cost saving m easures have also been taken to conserve energy. The S tu d e n t C en ter has ch anged its light bulbs in th e south ballroom and used low er w attage ones in o rd er to conserve, said Jim C iavarella, d irecto r o f th e S tu d e n t C en ter. A lso attem p ts

are being m ade to see th a t the lights are turned o ff when room s are not occupied. Coolers have been resealed, and future equipm ent purchases are m ade with energy considerations in mind.

L ib rarian B ern n ett R einke said th a t the li­ b rary has replaced glass windows with panels to conserve energy. C eiling fans also circulate air in o rd er to aid in heating and air conditioning.

T he th erm o stat is now set at 68 degrees.

M ajoring in social work, Dawn M cK eon, 35, is designated as an O TA (O lder than A verage). The m other o f four boys, ages 4 to 17, she often has questioned w hether or not she’s too old to be in school. “ M ost tim es it is very difficult to balance betw een school and my family. Som etim es the courses are m uch m ore tim e-consum ing, just as one of my sons may be m ore tim e-consum ing than one o f the others. I’m not a grade A student, but it is much m ore im p o rtant to me to be a grade A m om . 1 know 1 am capable o f much better school work, b u t my work is cut out for me at home, and boy do I know it!”

She said, “ School has been very beneficial to me. A t one tim e 1 would have said th a t anyone th a t goes to school is trying to avoid work, like a bunch of lazy bums. But now th at I’m here, my a ttitu d e has im proved 200 percent. My apprecia­ tion for knowledge over ignorance is beyond com ­ p are .”

She values her education. “ W ithout my educa­ tion, I could not provide for my children. But,

“ T he hardest thing is to find the tim e to sit and spend som e tim e w ith th e kids,” said T am m y G oerndt. Like m any non-traditional students T am m y balances roles as a full-tim e student, a m other, and a wife.

My responsibility o my self and my fam ily includes being all I can je and setting a fram ew ork for my children to ■ealize th at they can also shape th eir lives into inything they w ant.” “ It is the most uplifting, satisfying, and gratifyng experience of my life,” she said. “ I hope to nake the tiny difference in som eone’s life th a t will illow him or her to go and m ake the real differ;nce.”

A nother O T A , Pat Ferrym an, the wife o f a m ili­ ary man stationed in N ew E ngland, has atten d ed N orthern Pioneer C ollege in A rizona, W eber state College in U tah, and now Dickinson. She ound th at people varied from place to place, but ikes the people she’s m et here. “ I really like the seople here in Dickinson. N obody ever seem s too ausy to lend a helping hand. As far as D SU is eoncerned, I haven’t had a bit of trouble. The students and the adm inistration alike are g re a t.”

She also balances jobs with her husband at home. “ I have three teenagers at hom e and every­ one pitches in. My husband helps a lot, so it m akes for a good team effort. I'm in class until 2. By the tim e we all get home and get everything done, it’s usually about 7 o’clock. Then we sep arate to our own parts of the house. T h a t’s when the hom ew ork gets done.”

H er responsibilities as m other and stu d en t mean she carefully plans her tim e. “ 1 have to schedule my time very carefully. I’m m ore stru ctu red than 1

would be if I was a stu d en t only. O ne thing I find helpful is th a t I do my assignm ents as soon as they’re assigned, instead o f ju st before th ey ’re d ue.”

Ju lie Peterson, g rad u atin g this spring with a business degree, retu rn ed to college a fte r 10 years.

T he m o th er o f two children, who also juggles hom e and school obligations, is ap p reciativ e o f her education. “ T he best p art of com ing back to school is th e pride I have in myself. My first re­ sponsibilities go to my daug h ters. A fte r th at, 1 have a sincere responsibility to school. To actually learn, a fter all this tim e, is som ething th a t m akes me very proud of myself. A fte r being o u t o f school for ten years, 1 realize th a t you definitely need a higher ed ucation if you expect to get anyw here in this life.”

V ernon M etz, 49, a business m ajor, decided to retu rn to school following a h ea rt a tta c k . “ It (go­ ing to school) takes a lot of will pow er, b u t anyone can do it if they d o n ’t give u p ,” he said.

W hile atten d in g school, he also does a lot o f woodwork and works at S tockm ans, but he still keeps his schoolwork as a priority. “ My schoolwork com es first, b u t I alw ays seem to be able to fit everything in. I have to take tim e to relax, because o f my health, b u t it all w orks o u t.”

H e thinks th a t age does not m ake th a t m uch o f a difference in achieving an education. “ T he nontrad itio n al stud en t is self-im proving, for w hatever reason. Som e people ju st ca n ’t go to college right a fte r high school, for lots o f reasons. But ju st the

effo rt, no m a tte r w hat your age m akes the differ­ ence. A s a full-tim e stu d en t at my age, I’m really proud o f the things I’ve accom plished. My best m om ent was when I earned the G olden H am m er A w ard. I felt like it cam e from my peers. T here­ fore, it was the most im p o rtan t.”

P at H u eth er, 54, com m utes from her farm for two hours a day. She decided to continue her edu catio n for herself and for her grandchildren. “ A ctually I did it mostly for my grandsons. Just to prove th a t you are never too old. But now th at I’m here, I find it so g reat for me, too.”

H oping to go into social w ork, she wants to help others who haven’t had an education. “ I started studying for my G E D , took the test in June and here I am . 1 d o n ’t w ant th a t to happen to the young people in o ur area. My first advice is to finish school.”

T hese n o n -traditional students plan on continu­ ing in professional jo b s a fter th eir education. Joan Johnson will be going into elem entary education, hopefully to teach k indergarten. K athy would like to go into teaching business and Kyle would like to find a jo b in social work. Dawn w ants to work with h andicapped children o r developm entally disabled adults. Pat w ants to continue her education at the m a ste r’s level, and Julie is looking for that good jo b . A nd Vern plans to m arry this sum m er.

T h a t requirem ent proved a challenge to m any D SU students. A fte r taking th e A pplew orks course, Jan e Bush, D ickinson senior, said, “ It was a living hell.”

O vercrow ding in co m p u ter classes concerned som e students. Sixteen A pple He com puters were used for each A pplew orks class. K arla Lem er, D ickinson sophom ore, said, “ I believe they should have m ore co m p u ters for the class so th ere w ouldn’t be so m uch overcrow ding.”

Sandy Klein, directo r o f th e p rogram , has re­ ceived a plethora of favorable com m ents from g rateful students. “ T he students say things like ‘A fter I had a tu to r my instru cto r said I was the most im proved student in his class’ and ‘W hen I use a tu to r they never have to w orry ab o u t me asking questions.

Jean n e C onklin, a D SU senior, said she’s paying back the system th a t helped out her D ata Base grade. She tu to rs in m ost business classes as well as the C A T exam.

T u to red in English as a sophom ore, John Lopez is an o th er tu to r who w orked in a system th a t he feels indebted to. H e enjoys the challenge of exam ­ ining a problem from several differen t angles to show a peer an u n d erstan d ab le solution to his problem . M ajoring in C om posite N a tu ra l Science, he tu to rs in collegiate and in term ed iate algebra, trigonom etry, C alculus 1 and 2, general chem istry, chem istry fundam entals, basic program m ing, w ord processing, and geology.

“T h e tutoring helps me to recall a lot of stu I’ve learned,” he said.

This fall sem ester 242 students needing hel worked with 76 tutors. 24% of the students er rolled in the program went from a “ D ” to a “ B grade while 27% went from a “ D ” to a “C ” , sai Klein.

As the statistics show, the program seems to b a good one. However, statistics don’t reveal th personal side of it: students who feel th at the w ouldn’t have m ade it w ithout their tu to r and wh were glad to have been in the program .

RESOURCE CENTER Skills, tutoring, and careers W

tudents exam ining the D SU L earning Resource C enter have a w ealth o f academ ic id career inform ation available to them .

C om prised of basic skills evaluation and aid, storing, academ ic m onitoring, and c a re er inforlation areas, the center is m anaged by directo r andy Klein, who balances her p art-tim e 30-anour week job with a p art-tim e position in finanlal aid and teaching a class in accounting, /o rkstu dy students, V irginia G aab , T heresa rank, and Peggy D egele this year helped m any iSU students in these areas.

The basic skills aspect of the center provides a lace for teachers to check o u t needed skills o f leir students, said Klein. “ T eachers can com e in nd request evaluations in any o f th e skills.”

Also students may go to the cente r and receive asic skill help through a variety of aids such as ipes, softw are packages, and videos. In addion, the center will provide extra help by uniting udents with a tu to r if necessary, said Klein. O r a person has a special academ ic need the cen:r will m ake arrangem ents for th a t student.

In the fall sem ester of 1989, the cen ter w orked ith 579 students in the skills area in addition to elping evaluate all incom ing freshm an com posion students, Klein said.

In addition to basic skills counseling, th e cen:r also m atches students w ith tutors. In th e fall, le center helped 242 students an d used 76 tu ­ n's. Klein said th at these num bers reflect a 23% ivolvement o f the student body in the program .

J

R elated to th e tu to rin g p rogram , academ ic m onitoring is an o th e r aspect o f the resource cen ­ ter. Klein asks in stru cto rs to refer stu d en ts who they feel potentially will have acad em ic pro b ­ lem s so the c en te r m ay co n ta c t th e students. In th e fall, th e c e n te r identified 190 students, Klein said, b u t only a few cam e in. “ I d o n ’t know if they d o n ’t care or w h at,” she said. “ A cadem ic m onitoring is not g etting the stu d en ts like we wish it w ould.”

Klein said th a t o f the 242 stu d en ts signed up for the tu to r p rogram , only 14 o f them entered th e pro g ram by the way o f the referral lists. “ T his m eans th a t the b e tte r stu d en ts are com ing in. B ut very few stu d en ts com e in thro u g h a c a ­ dem ic m onito rin g .”

Besides providing acad em ic m onitoring, th e c e n te r also counsels students on careers. In the fall of 1989, 335 students checked files on jobs, w hich provide updates in various fields, sought out inform ation on colleges and train in g pro­ gram s across the country, looked at requirem ents for correspondence classes, and exam ined v ar­ ious books and bibliographies on careers.

T o continue to provide fu rth e r service in these various areas, Klein w ould like to see a new co m p u ter and a new V C R , because so m any textbooks now provide videos for instructional purposes.

ROUGH RODEO I t’s a college sport, too I s bulldogging a steer from a running q u arterL horse as m uch of a sport as carrying a football to a lineman? D SU Rodeo C lub m em bers think “ You have to be in good shape to do all o f your ents,” said Troy Peterson, a senior and com petir in steer wrestling. “ In bull riding and saddleonc and bare-back riding, you have good upper )dy strength and coordination to ride them . As r as calf roping and steer w restling, you really ive to be physically fit to tie, run down, and ,row a calf or to catch a steer and throw it.”

Besides the particip ant, o th er team m em bers — le horses — need to be in top condition. “ If tu’re not in shape, you’re going to get hurt. Bas­ eb a ll players ju st don’t run out on the co u rt and ay a game. W e’re no different. Y our horses, also, ive to be in shape, or they will get h u rt, to o ,” said risti Lensegrav.

Janel A ppledoorn, a ju n io r and com petitor in ta t tying and barrel racing, said, “ Y es, it is a jort, because you’re com peting against o th er peoe, ju st like any other sport.”

R odeoing varies in som e ways from o th er o rg a ­ nized sports. “ I t’s very differen t from other sp o rts,” explained N eilie T ibbs, senior and com ­ p etito r in breakaw ay roping and g o at tying. “ T h ere are events w here you have to work with the team , such as team roping, and th ere a re events like in breakaw ay roping and c a lf roping, w here you com pete only for yourself. Y ou score points for yourself, and if you’re on a team , you score points for them also.”

F or som e, it is a sport th a t does not end with collegiate com petition. “ Y ou can pretty much com pete in rodeo all your life. Y ou see kids nine years old, team roping and th ere are men th a t are 60-years-old th a t are still team rop in g ,” said Paul B uffington, who com petes in team roping.

U nlike baseball, rodeo is not a one-event sport.

T he individual can en ter one event o r as m any events as he chooses. P eterson said, “ T he men can com pete in saddle-bronc riding, b are-b ack riding, bull riding, c a lf roping, steer w restling, and team roping. T he women com pete in g oat typing, barrel racing, and breakaw ay rop in g .”

As with any sport, its p articipants need to p rac­ tice. D SU team m em bers practice at the Bob H anson ranch, the S tan H au sau er ranch, or the D SU M ulti-P u rp o se A rena. “ W e’ve been p racticin g on and off all w inter,” said S andy C arlson, a com petitor in breakaw ay roping and g o at tying. “ O u r team in general, p rac­ tices ab o u t four tim es a week and approxim ately th ree or four hours per d ay.”

T he D SU rodeo team is p a rt of the G reat Plains R egion w hich consists o f m any schools from five states, such as Iowa S tate U niversity in Ames, I A; N o rth D akota S ta te U niversity in Fargo, N D ; and th e U niversity o f N e b rask a in Lincoln, N E . The team enters ten rodeos. A fter the ten rodeos, the top two team s from each region go to the nationals in B ozem an, M T, for a national rodeo.

PACESETTERS Dr. M ark Box, D ickinson S ta te U niversity English professor, published this y ear The Sua-

sive A rt o f David Hume.

Box described th e book as a scholarly work, w hich will be used by people who a re re search ­ ing H um e. T h erefo re, he thinks th a t the book may initially have a sm all, im m ed iate audience b u t th a t it should serve a po tentially large, fu tu re audience.

"T h e box began life as a d o cto ral thesis — or a d issertatio n ,” Box said. "O n e req u irem en t o f a d issertation is for it to say som ething new about the su b ject.” “ In H um e 1 found som eone who was very im p o rta n t,” he said, “ b u t who had not been explored a g re at deal from a literary ang le.”

T h e book represents a ten -y ear effo rt by Box. H e researched m aterial for the book in L on­ don, O xford, and U rb an a , Illinois, over a sev-

en-year period. Following his research, he w rote and revised his book for three years.

T h e book was su b m itted to O xford Press for p u blication, b u t it w as rejected because the ed ito rs did n o t perceive an im m ediate need for th e m aterial.

H e then did fu rth e r revisions and sent the book to Princeton U niversity Press, which after rew arding the m an u scrip t decided to publish it.

H is book is ded icated to his wife, E lizabeth S h aplan d , he said. S h e helped him with the proofing, and she w rote the index for him.

W ith the final proofing and the index com ­ pleted, Box sen t the proofs to the printers on O cto b er 12, 1989.

I— I ow to add facilities for recording muJL JL sic and how to add computers for stu­ dent instruction concerns Louis Sacchini, professor of Music, in face of this year’s tax referral issue.

“We do need some recording facilities and equipment to record concerts and student re­ citals,” he said. “ It is necessary in terms of the program. They have to go out into the public schools, and the schools are already into this equipment. W e’ve yet to look at it.”

Sacchini wishes the music department could acquire an IBM computer, computer instructional programs to aid in teaching, a synthesizer to connect to the computer, and a library of sound. N ow the department oper­ ates on one older computer denoted by the business department, he said.

“ W e’re looking at some type of pro­ gram s to raise scholarship funds.” — Louis Sacchini

He estimates that to build such electronic innovations in the music department will cost between $15,000 and $20,000.

But the tax referral issue sounded a discor­ dant note for the department. “ I had some funds that were allocated in the budget to begin with the recording stuff,” he said. “ But now they’ll be frozen and redistributed, so the

equipment and studio are now on hold.”

The tax referrals will also curtail a pro gram to upgrade the school’s pianos. “Wi we’re hoping to begin a 10-year replacemen for old pianos and to update them. That i, now dubious.”

The purchase of new instfifments blannei for methods classes will now be postpone until the next budget, he said.

Another area of planned development wil rely on initiative and donations rather thai state monies. “W e’re looking at some type o program to raise scholarship funds. We haw to attract students with a significant scholar ship amount. We can’t continue to offer $301 scholarships while other schools offe $1500,” he said.

But with other groups seeking private con tributions, he worries about the public re sponse to a variety of requests for mone> “It’s questionable with others seeking funds too,” he said.

Even though the tax referral has place some of the department’s goals on hold, h sees several improvements in the music de partment this year. He points out that th ensemble has increased in size and that a increase in piano students meant a increas from one piano section to four sections. Als he thought that this year an improved concei series attracted larger audiences and som improved performers.

This year’s Northern Plains Festival c M usic in November attracted 30 hig schools. “It was better in quality and in nurr ber. The student participants were better prc

tred for the event,” he said ..

And the Christmas Festival, which features Renaissance feast and music, played before receptive audience, he said.

While the Music Department continued ime of its traditional programs, this year a jw staff member’s skills upgraded the art spartment’s photography classes and the rt Club continued to remain strong.

“She upgraded our photography area, he’s doing some exciting things in water dors, too,” said Lily Pomeroy, assistant prossor of art, speaking of Katrina Callahanolcater, who holds an M FA degree in Paintig and Photography from Texas Tech Uni:rsity.

Pomeroy said that the art club has in•eased its membership this year. “They orinized a couple of art sales that went really ell. The money they raised will go toward a ip they will take to Santa Fe and points est.”

Although the consolidation and revamping f the higher educational system in North akota makes for an uncertain future, Poeroy would eventually like to see her deirtment offer more classes. “ 1 would like to : able to offer the student more classes in rms of art education.”

She thinks that the tax referral issue may ean more students for the art program if her universities scale back or eliminate ieir programs. “ It is likely to bring some udents here that would not go to big univer­ ses because of the lower tuition.”

Because studio courses require students to

pay fees and students pay for consumable materials, except for major equipment needs such as kilns and photography equipment, Pomeroy thinks that the expected belt-tight­ ening dictated by the tax issue will not neces­ sarily affect the art department. “ Except for the purchase of major equipment, I can’t see the tax issue as being that critical.”

Like the Art Department, the Theatre D e­ partment maintained its existing programs this year. Jean Waldera, professor of speech and theatre, considers this year to have been a busy one. “This has been the busiest and most productive year in recent history for the D SU Theatre Department faculty and stu­ dents. We will have produced a total of seven shows by the end of April.”

With the number of majors and minors in the department increasing, an expanded number of shows means more opportunities for those wishing to experience the effort of producing a play, she said.

Jobs in a variety o f fields reflect the exper­ ience in D SU theatre training. Professional theatre performers, technicians, college teachers, TV and radio actors and producers, teachers, public relations, sales work and law­ yers, — all have used their D SU theater backgrounds, she said.

Waldera would like to see a new costume shop and prop and costume storage area, lost because of the creation of the Theatre Loft.

“We are literally bursting at the seams and desperately need to increase our space.”

The theatre department would also like to expand the Loft to accom modate larger audi­

ences and to give more flexibility for space usage.

However, because of this year’s re­ ferral vote, she thinks further improve­ ment probably will not occur when funding for university programs is cut.

“ It could frustrate some of the things some of us w ant to do.” — G erald W aldera

In th e fu tu re, W aldera, a state senator fron D istrict 37 in D ickinson, hopes to see th at facult; ent expand into the area of telecomm uni ininvolvem th e Division cations and fu rth er use o f the com puter.

A lso, the division is planning a pre-social worl p rogram for social w ork m ajors in cooperatior w ith U N D . In this program , students could attenc D SU for two years before going to U N D for twc years. Following a favorable evaluation, a studeni here would be g u aran teed a placem ent a t U N D he said. “ W e’re hoping to tie-in with U N D , so student; may stay here longer, save money, and get theii e d u catio n ,” W ald era said.

Because o f the tax referral issue, W aldera feel: th at the cu t in funds could affect com puter in struction and visual aids. “ It could frustrate somt o f the things som e o f us w ant to do,” he said. ________________________________ —

Many kinds of musicians hammer or bang away at the ino, but a DSU pianist plays it with a touch of class.

Wonne Kroes (Cruise) was born in Eindhoven, the ttherlands. He began playing the piano at the late age 10. Kroes said, “My father brought home a piano one y and I fell in love with the instrument right away.”

He attended the Sweelinck Conservatory at Amsterm where he received his degree in piano pedagogy and rformance in 1988. In April and May of this "year, oes will return to the Sweelinck Conservatory where hopes to receive his Artist Degree. “In order to get my :ond degree I will have to do two performances (recit), about an hour long each.”

Dnce in Amsterdam, Kroes will also perform at the ncertgebouw, which in terms of prestige is similar to rnegie Hall in the U.S. “A lot of the people who get :ir Artist Degree at the Conservatory also are engaged perform at the Concertgebouw.”

Kroes isn’t the only concert pianist in the family. He t his future wife, Charlotte Mueller, at the Sweelinck nservatory. “We were both studying under the same tructor, Jan Wijn, and that’ show our relationship rted.”

Charlotte, a native in Bismarck, is an Assistant Profesin the DSU Music Department. “It was her job that mght us here to DSU,” Kroes said. “Once we arrived ear and a half ago, we realized that it was a nice place teach piano and to practice and study.”

Kroes has been performing in Montana, North and jth Dakota, and Minnesota, not to mention his native neland. “ When 1 receive my degree, I expect that h my wife and I will be performing in a wider area in Upper Midwest.” knd for a man who never becomes tired of perform, Kroes said, “ Every time you play, the situation is ferent. The piano is different, the halls, the acoustics, all make it it a really exciting experience.” }n the average, Kroes practices three to five hours :h day. “It can become a physical strain practicing six irs one day and teaching a class of students the next,

His favorite composers include Schumann, Chopin, Liszt, Rachmanioff, and several contemporary compos­ ers. “ I love the impressionistic composers because they treat the piano so interestingly and pianistically, but I enjoy performing a variety of works by different compos­ er.”

PA CESETTERS Galen Kovash, a graduating senior has marched to the beat of operas, Hilltop produc­ tions, and plays in his career at DSU, He was president of the the DSU Chorale and president of Phi Mu Alpha Symphonia, a music fraternity for men. He directed the 1990 Hilltop Holiday. He appeared in two operas, Bastien and Bastienne and A m a h l and the N ight Visitors.

This year he appeared as Figaro in The Marriage o f Figaro. He acted in The L ittle Shop o f H or­ rors, played the king in Rumpelstiltskin, and had a part in The Boys N e xt Door.

With a major in Music and a minor in Theatre, he points to the opportunities at the university. “I feel that I was given a lot of opportunities at DSU. You really can’t be a blend-in type of per­ son because of DSU's student size. Everyone is needed.”

Galen found the personal attention that in­ structors give to students to be a positive aspect of DSU. “That means a lot to me. The instructors also seem to support what we do and they know that we’re busy and we have a lot to do and they understand.”

He would like to see increased efforts made to recruit and retain students. “ I think there could be more done as far as recruiting and getting new freshmen. Once we get them here, we should try harder to keep them before they decide to go to a different university.”

He is considering a variety of career choices.

“The first thing I’d like to do is get a daytime job either in retail, business, or the air lines, and at night perform in music for about a year or two. I still have a plan for graduate school, but I don't know if I’ll ever pursue that or not.”

HUNTING DEER very fall a t D S U , the cam pus tenses with excitem ent. Phone calls to anxious paren ts increase to such a tem po th a t they th re ate n phone system. T he F rid ay before the spectacle is like the end o f school as students load th eir vehi­ cles, and th e dorm s becom e silent sp ectato rs to an event th a t is as m ystifying to som e as the m ig ra­ tion of the lem m ing. T h ere is a cause for all o f this alarm : th e rap id ap p ro ach of th e deer hunting season.

S enior K eith Polesky relishes stom ping about the woods in a quest th a t his ancestors also en­ joyed. “ I love to h u n t” says the q uiet history m a­ jo r, whose fath er G erald in 1959, using only a bow and arrow bagged the W orld R ecord white tail in eastern M ontana. “ I t’s som ething th a t my fam ily has done for a long tim e. I t ’s a good source of food.” Besides collecting trophies, the Poleskys also process th eir deer into steak, roast, deer jerky, and sausage. “ I would have to agree with th a t,” said sopho­ m ore Brian ‘C h e t’ Stevens, who hunts alm ost reli­ giously. C lothed in h u n te r’s garm ents, he m et the ’89 football team halfw ay to M inot S ta te after

having left early so he could do some hunting.

S tudents, however, are not th e only people on the pus who h ear th e horn of th e hunt. Football cam coaches H ank Biesiot and R andy D uxbury are both h unters an d ou td o o r enthusiasts. “ I h u n t because I enjoy th e com pany o f my fellow hunters. A nd because o f a coaches’ salary,” Biesiot said, with tongue placed firmly in cheek.

D uxbury said, “ I sim ply enjoy everything about it. From the hu n t to eating th e venison, it’s a truly satisfying experience.”

Sophom ore T hom as Schoeder, a com puter sci­ ence m ajor, h asn ’t jo in ed th e annual fall crusade in th e past five years, b u t he still has aspirations of bagging a trophy d eer on his property by the C e­ d a r River.

D SU h unters such as Polesky also realize the balance betw een tro p h y hunting and anim al con­ servation. Polesky is concerned a b o u t M o n tan a’s hunting laws. “ They (the state o f M ontana) give out th ree tags per h unter. I ju s t think th a t’s too m uch o f a strain on the deer p opulation.”

h at do students do for ex tra cash while they are in college?

Som e work in the local school yards as supervi­ sors or in a gas station, but for students from M innesota, M o n tan n a, and Dickinson, Pizza H u t is the place to work.

M an ag er L oren W erch au and assistan t m an ­ ager Je ff S chults first found th eir jobs while they atten d in g D SU . A ccording to Jeff, “ W e like to hire college students. It helps the local econom y and keeps them out of tro u b le.”

Loren recognizes the im portance of students to the local econom y. “ W e need the college support to keep the town going and having students work here allows us to draw o th er stu d en ts in to eat, and th a t’s good for business.”

Bones Diggin’ for T. Rex andy T ravis sings “ I’m diggin’ up bones” as p a rt of a love song; bu t to L arry D SU geography and geology professor, and his student assistants “ diggin up bones” m eans sum m er excavations for dinosaur fossils.

For the past three sum m ers, L eague and his college students have searched for dinosaur bones in the counties of Slope, N o rth D akota, and n o rth ­ ern Fallon, M ontana.

They have discovered nine species of dinosaurs, two of which are com m on in this region and m ake up 88 percent of th eir finds: Triceratops and EdmontosaurusT a duck-billed dinosuar.

League (holding some of his Finds in photo at right) feels fo rtu n ate to have discovered a 95 p er­ cent com plete skeleton of a Triceratops in a region which once was a M ississippi-like d elta 65 million years ago. “ A nim als th a t died fa rth e r up stream were carried down into th e delta, causing deposi­ tion, decay, and separation of bones. So, it’s very rare to find even a p artial skeleton, let alone a com plete one,” he said.

In the last three sum m ers, students enrolled in H istorical G eology or Paleontology, a b ranch of geology th a t deals with form s from th e past through the study o f plant and anim al fossils, have p articipated in the dinosaur p ro ject in southw est­ ern N o rth D akota.

For m any it m eans a sense o f adventure. “ I guess I consider it like hunting for gold,” said Bill Kostelecky, a senior. “ O nce you sta rt, you’re hooked, and you w ant to keep a t it.”

O thers point out the hard and often tedious work involved on the digs. “ L ast year we cam e across some toe bones and v erteb rae which were found on the surface. W e had a hard tim e rem ov­ ing some pelvic hip bones w hich were em bedded in the rock, so we had to rem ove them piece by piece,” said M ike Ruggles, a senior.

A lthough students spent a lot of tim e scouring the ground for fragm ents, they ap p reciate L eague and enjoy the work. “ Professor L eague is a very m ulti-dim ensional person. H e’s clear and concise on w hat he does and w hat needs to be done. The people th a t go out to the dig really enjoy it,” Joyce K enner, a ju nior, said.

L eague’s research project with stu d en ts is the only one of its kind in N o rth D akota. “ I think it’s a unique type o f research project because it’s the only one being done in N o rth D ak o ta,” he said. “ It allows us to collect very rare dinosaur bones and allows the students a chance to gain valuable field experience.”

League has received funding from the university and the Bush G ra n t Foundation. “ I t’s never been enough, but it does help.”

A 15-m inute docum entary on L eag u e’s dinosaur work aired Jan u ary 27 on P rairie Public T elevi­ sion’s new regional news program , Prairie News Journal. “ T hey cam e out in O cto b er and film ed for half a day. I answ ered a lot o f questions and explained to them the age of the rocks and the form ations and the extinctions of th e din o sau rs.”

Visitors Making Friends

lthough the N o rth D akota w eath er seems cold and the food unusual to them , seven C hinese students app reciate their D ickinson S tate educational experience. “ All of us find it hard adju st to this clim ate.” said Sue Ting Z huang, whose hom e is in the prov­ ince of Q inghai, located in th e northw est area of the People’s R epublic of C hina. “ It is very cold here. W here we com e from it’s not as cold as here.” “ A m erica, I like it here. I like the people from this town and I like my classm ates. Everyone is helpful and friendly,” she said.

A lthough she had difficulty a t first with A m eri­ can food, Sue Ting developed some A m erican tastes. “ W hen we first cam e here we cannot digest the food. C hinese people rarely digest cheese but now grilled cheese has becom e my favorite food.”

Xin Fan Zou is m ajoring in English and hopes to return to C hina to find a b e tte r job. “ B anana dessert is my favorite A m erican sweet, and I like the spaghetti noodle and garlic b re ad ,” she said.

H ong M ou Li, from S hanghai in th e southern p art of C hina, is studying Business A d m in istra­ tion. “The cold w eather is really cold,” Li said. “ 1 like the quiet and few people. Living conditions are better here th an in china and I like th e conve­ nient traffic, sufficient food, and variety o f p ro ­ ducts for consum ers.”

Two other students, Ju a n Z h an g and Yin H uang W ang, share an ap artm e n t o ff cam pus and will com plete their studies in English this spring. “ W e enjoy studying here. T he teach ers are very know ledgeable, helpful, and kind. W e really learn a lot in the classroom and out of th e class. E spe­ cially when we get in trouble or confused about A m erican custom s, they a re very helpful and p a­ tien t,” said Yin H uang. “ I will g rad u ate in M ay,” said Ju an Z hang. “ A nd I am looking forw ard to th at. I have been away from my husband and child for IOV2 m onths.

1 will retu rn to my job as English teac h er at the Q inghai A nim al H usbandry V eterinary C ollege in my hom e town of X ining, b u t now with im proved E nglish.”

W ang is also anxious to return to L anzhouin in the province of G ansu and is looking forw ard to continuing her English teaching profession C hina.

The C hinese students are here as a p a rt o f an international exchange program , which stem s from Dr. A lbert W atrel’s particip atio n in the A m erican A ssociation of S ta te C ollege and U n i­ versities (A A S C U ).

Caps And Jackets Sporting Logos

verywhere som eone seem s to be w earing a jacket, cap, or sw eatshirt with some form of ilogan w ritten on it.

For exam ple, football players w ear th e blueind-gray jackets with their nam es and jersey num >ers. N ursing and business students sport their iwn logo on their jackets. Som e w ear th eir old ligh school jackets. Is this apparel a passing fad?

Many D SU students w ear caps and ja c k e ts for different reasons.

N orine V ollm uth, a ju nior, w earing a D SU School o f Business jack e t, said, “ I w ear it because ,t’s soft, light, and w arm , and because my m ajor Mil be in the School of Business.”

O thers aren ’t so sure why they w ear th eir caps.

Shawn M avity, a freshm an, w earing a S p artan Drilling, Inc. cap, said, “ I don’t really know. I vuess I ju st like the way it’s shaped and feels.”

Logos also announce fam ily connections. “ My lad owns the Pinnow R acing S tables w hich are

E

used for th o ro u g h b red racin g ,” said N eal Pinnow, a sophom ore, w earing a Pinnow R acing S tables jack et.

Som e associate th e ja c k e t with people. “ My boyfriend used to w ork th ere, and he gave the ja c k e t to m e,” said B renda K athrein, a freshm an, who w ears R -D C onstru ctio n on the back of her jack e t.

Som e use the logos to irrita te th eir enem ies. “ I like to w ear my O ak lan d A ’s sw eatshirt and b ase­ ball caps because I used to live in S an Jo se,” explained Bill D ent, a senior. “ I like to tick o ff the M innesota T w ins’ fans aro u n d h ere.”

So, in reality, it’s not because D SU students w ear w hat they do to im press o thers or because som eone else is w earing the sam e thing, b u t th a t they p refer to w ear w hat they w ant because it ju st feels right in m any ways.

Som e would change th eir last names. C arol Kovaloff, a senior, said, “ Yes, I would change my last nam e. I t’s too unique. I wish I had som ething sim ple like S m ith in stead .”

T ylea H orgeshim er, a junior, said, “ Yes, I would. I ’d like som ething short and easy to spell.”
