Reflections

The Memories... The surroundings Reflect w hat the cam pus was like from the beginning of the idea of Dickinson State University to the adva nce足 m ents that have occurred over the years.

Will Cause Us To...

Even though we have m issed out on the reasons behind the traditions, there is no question w hy they continue. The unity that fills the school during hom e sporting events, the H o m ecom ing celebration and in the ResiÂ dence Halls are a part of the Reflections we will have about the University today.

W hat will be rem em bered, for each and every student it will be som ething different. It could be the long lines of registration as a Freshm en or a certain professor that went out of their way to he l p . No m a t t e r w h a t t he though ts are of, just keep in m ind that they exist because of the tim e that was spent at DickÂ inson State University.

Togress for Success Last year, Dickinson State University adm inistrars and faculty and staff members were evaluating e University's programs and offerings, looking at ays to increase enrollment, and making plans for e enhancement of facilities. What a difference a year can make! Some key xomplishments made 1995 an outstanding year for ickinson State. "This past year has been unbelievably productive \d rewarding for Dickinson State University/' -esident Philip W. Conn says. "W hen one lists the rmerous advancements with regard to academ ic -ograms, student life, and physical activities, it is avious that the institution is fulfilling its mission ith great success." "Hundreds of individuals—faculty and staff embers, students and parents, alum ni and townsjople—have made our progress possible." Progress indeed. For starters, the University, after thorough evaluation by the Consultant Evaluation orps of the North Central Association of Colleges td Schools (NCA), received continued accreditation ir a full 10 years. In addition, the Associate of :ience in Practical Nursing Program was accredited j the National League of N ursing (NLN). The Office of Admissions and Academ ic Records rovided some good news shortly after the Fall 1995 unester began. Enrollm ent figures showed that a »tal of 373 new freshmen would be attending :hool, the largest number of first-year college udents to enroll since 1970. In the coming years, students will have the aportunity to learn and grow in refurbished cilities across campus. W ork has begun on the ■novation and expansion of Klinefelter Hall and the orth Campus facility. Dorothy Stickney Auditoum and Scott Gymnasium, have both been remoded and are seeing more use than ever. Not only will the students have remodeled Lcilities in which to learn, but they will also have le opportunity to learn under a new organizational ructure. The University realigned its departments id programs last summer to fit under two collegeshe College of Education, Business, and Applied lienees, and the College of Arts and Sciences. A ;view of the courses offered was conducted, as reparations are underway to publish the 1996-98 atalog. For students enrolled on a regular basis, the fferings of the Office of Student Activities have een increased. Students now m ay take part in a ill-scale intramural sports program , and also have re opportunity to take part in a great many weekid activities, including dances, concerts, and other aerial events. Finally, the University continues to serve as host ) various events that help the school provide public irvice in W est River North Dakota. "Much is yet to be done in making Dickinson tate University all it can be in serving the education eeds of the region," states Dr. Conn. "W hile we are leased with the accom plishm ents of the past year, ur focus is on a promising future filled with many hallenges and opportunities."

Reflecting on t

S.O.A.R. with Registration Student Orientation, Advisement and Registration (S.O.A.R.) was the beginning of a college career for many new students. The two day program was designed to help new students make a successful transition to the University by preparing them for the academic and social changes that all new students face. During S.O.A.R. new students have an opportunity to: register for classes; m eet with college deans and faculty; socialize with other students and m eet new friends; become familiar with the campus, services, and facilities; and discover the opportuniÂ ties offered at Dickinson State. Because of the large num ber of new students enrolled to begin classes at DSU this fall, the University hosted a third session of S.O.A.R. Originally, only two sessions had been scheduled. Parents were encouraged to attend with their students. Unlike in past years, this year's orientation sessions incorporated individualized programs for both parents and students which ran consecutively. Each orientation session included special programming to address parents' needs and concerns, as well as the interests of students. An involved student on campus, Cara Transtrom, shared her feelings about S.O.A.R. "Tom Hartman really m ade the program come alive! He challenged the leaders to be the best we could be and to reach beyond our limits. He was a pleaÂ sure to work with and I had a wonderful time working with the incoming students that were a part of the sessions." "It was the first session that I attended," remarks Sandy Baer, "and now the proÂ gram has grown into something that the University can be proud of. I know I appreciated the program when I attended in 1992, because it helped me prepare myself for going to college."

Welcome Back Week Greets Students With Wild Weather & Wacky Fun Through the frenzy of unpacking and meeting their roommates, a special week was already underway for the student body. During the summer months, the Campus Activity Board planned Welcome Back Week, a week designed to help incoming students adjust to college and meet people. The residence halls had barbecues for supper Sunday evening, and a parents' dessert reception took place in the south ballroom. Student Senate president Cody Brown and vice-president W illy Maxwell kicked off the week by spinning tunes for the students. Monday night found close to 200 students viewing the movie Outbreak. Clear sunny skies on Tuesday helped the success of the All School Picnic held on the lawn between Selke and the Student Center. Back for another year, comedian David Orion tickled funny bones that evening. The Clubs and Organizations' Fair gave students a chance to sign up for groups of interest. Local m erchants and vendors joined in the festivities bringing pens, caps, coupons and clothing. The weather took a turn that night and put the campus in puddles. A large thunderstorm moved into the area and caused flooding. A few residence hall rooms received damage, but the bulk of the damage occurred in the Student Center basem ent where ankle deep water covered the bookstore, cafeteria and newly relocated offices. Rodeo Night scheduled for Friday had to be postponed due to deep mud covering the arena. An alternate activity found students viewing movies in the ballroom.

an adven ture Gone are the days when living in a residence hall m eant answering to a dorm mother and reporting in before 10:00 p.m. Still present, however are the advanÂ tages of living in university housing. Naturally convenient proximity to class buildings and adm inistrative offices is not the only advantage. Students can utilize the free video libraries, cable television, local phone services, and laundry facilites. Kitchens, recreation areas, and computer rooms are also available, soon to be completed is the installation of on-line computer service directly in the students room. Marty Sabolo, coordinator of resident life, says special programming ensures that students receive a complete, wellrounded education. "W e have special programming, such as AIDS awareness discussions, alcohol and drug abuse presentations, and programs that deal with diversity and political issues," states Sabolo. "Each resident assistant is reÂ quired to do a certain number of programs that are educational in nature, and a certain number designed to build unity within the halls, such as a bowling night or a pool party." The residence halls have also taken it upon themselves to help create fun events on the campus. These programs are run by the halls and are for the encouraged participation of the residents. Am ong the efforts are the Crazy Hall Olympics, the Halloween dance and the Spring Fling, this year the halls also provided the 70's Game Show fun night during Sure Beats Winter Week.

Music for Credit An ensemble of selected wind and percussion instruments, perform ing literature of traditional and contem porary repeitoire is what makes up the band at DSU. Three times a week the students m eet to practice as a group, working through rough spots in pieces for perform ance and enÂ hancing their knowledge and interest for music. Annual concerts are held each semester where individuals can highlight their success with their instrum ent of choice. An off-branch of the Concert Band is the Pep Band that provides the spirit filled music at home football and basketball games. A chance to earn a bit of extra spending cash attracts students to this organized group of musicians. The other name that is sometimes placed on the Pep Band is the Blue Hawk Brigade Marching Band. Two weeks prior to the traditional Hom ecom ing parade members of this insturamental group take to the streets surrounding the cam pus to get down their time. A welcomed sight is the old marching band uniforms of the past where not brought out and instead m atchÂ ing sweatshirts were purchase to identify the musicians. Anyone interested in being in one of the musical ensembles on campus is welcom e to get involved.

1. During half time of the home football game the DSU pep band plays the Trojan Spectacle to gear up the crowd for the second half. 2. The trumpets jazz up Born to be W ild. 3. Percussion players Dea Brewster, Shannon Jangula, and Brian Matthews wait to return in on the coda.

Songs of Harmony The University Chorale fills the halls Monday, W ednesday and Friday with the sounds of completely blended harmony. A person passing by can hear the words of the school's Alma M ater, a gospel spiritual or an old time rag number come from within the choir room. Any one interested can join the group of singers that fluctuates between 40 to 60 voices. According to Dr. Brian Knutson, chair of the Department of Fine Arts, "W e've have a really nice group this year. We have a lot of new students, we're having some really fine rehearsals. I think we can look forward to some outstanding perform ances this year." Perform ances during the year rang form the H om ecom ing celebration to Gradua tion. Each and every year students in volved in the Chorale have the opportunity to sing with the Choral Union in a presen tation of H andel's M essiah. Concerts feature pieces sung by the entire group combined with a display of the talents of individuals as they share the selections that they have learned in private lessons as a soloist.

Coronation Moves to Scott Gym The theme for hom ecom ing was generated by the committee, after an unsuccessful attempt to obtain a theme through a campus wide contest. The chosen theme, "H awks in M otion," reflected how Dickinson State University and the many changes it is going through. The Homecoming events schedule saw some changes this year. Unlike past years, the usual movie presentation was elim iÂ nated and a bonfire was added before the pep rally. Also, to provide more time for organizations to build their floats, a special all-school float night was held. Ice cream and root beer were made available for all organizations to pick up for a treat as they worked on their floats. The homecoming celebration kicked off Sunday with a breakfast sponsored by the Business Club. Starstruck Studios cam e to campus M onday to provide students with an opportunity to make their own MTV style video. Com edian Peter Berman graced the Student Center stage Tuesday, and master hypnotist Jim W and brought his magic to campus for the tenth consecuÂ tive year, perform ing to a packed house W ednesday evening. Thursday found students voting for their chosen as royalty candidates to be the new Blue Hawk and Lady Hawk and work being done on outstanding parade floats. Scott Gym became the location for coronation where Tyra Erickson and Brian Matthews received the crown and sceptor. Immediatley following the cerem ony, the crowd filtered over to W est Cam pus for a pep rally and pre-game bonfire. The week finished with the annual parade, which went back to its original parade route.After the alumni banquet, K-Hook provided music for the post game dance. "I'm pleased with the way Hom ecom ing turned out. I had a great com m ittee to work with, and they all worked extra hard to make it a success. I want to thank them all once again for their help. I also w ant to thank my advisor Hal Haynes, as well as Marty Sabolo, Tom Hartman, Deb Hourigan and Dr. Gary Biller for helping the committee work out various ideas and situations in the planning of Hom ecom ing 1995."

Mama Drama

This play written by five women about five women deals with the trials and triumphs of motherhood. The five women share deep friendships as each struggles to work through her own dilemma. M egan (Ruth Price) is a divorced mother of three. She faces poverty while trying to live up to the memory of her "proud, Irish-classic" mother. Danny (Michele Levin) wants nothing more than to know the joy of having a child. Faced with the complications of infertility and cancer, she sees her dream fade while she remains a strong supporter of her friends in their own times of need. Anna (Sandy Baer) is haunted by the memory of the child she gave up for adoption 18 years earlier. Though she has had 2 children since, she sets out on a determined campaign to find her firstborn. Leah (Mandy Messmer) is filled with anxiety over her first pregnancy and then, after her son is born, over his upbringing. Her dual roles as concerned parent and daughter of an overbearing matriarch provide much of the play's comic moments. Liz (Jaime Kuntz) is the one member of the group of friends who does not aspire to motherÂ hood. Her career as an artist is her first priorityand is compounded with the heartbreakÂ ing challenge of caring for her aging mother. The five actresses brought sparkle and vitality to their roles. Interestingly enough, none of the five had actually given birth and so were unable to draw upon personal experience. It is a credit to their acting skills that they were able to convincÂ ingly portray the multiple dimensions of the characters through approximately six years.

1. "W e will have to start you on pitosin," states doctor (Ruth Price) as Leah(Mandy Messmer) goes through delivery of her firt child. 2. Leah thinks back to her mother(Sandy Baer) nagging her about wearing the crown. 3. Megan(Ruth Price) lends a hand to Danny(Michele Levin)as they discuss the health teacher. 4. Telling her mother how cute she is, Liz(Jamie Kuntz) pinches her cheek.

Winnie-the-Pooh An adaptation from the A. A. Milne story, composed by Dr. Ken Haught became the format for the annual Drama Club's children's theatre presentation. The play consisted of five acts told in story form with each act telling the exact story of its title. The first story "Pooh Gets Stuck" finds Pooh stuck in the opening of Rabbit's house after he has eaten too much. Christopher Robin comes to try and help, but the solution is to wait for Pooh to get thin.

Theretogivethetrioadvice are Aldo(Jace Picken) andAuntMay(MandyMessmer). The play is actually a lighthearted, comic explortation of male/ female relationships, and the sometim e unsettling (and very funny) com plications which can ensue. "It has so much to say about life and love and how m uch pain is caused by hate," states student director Jonathan Cole. "It is about the power of friendÂ ship, the meaning of love, and the fact that divorce is not necessarÂ ily the end." The experience of being a director has been a positive one for Cole. "I love it all," he says. "It's really, really hard work, but it pays off. Seeing these people grow the way they have, and work as hard as they have, it's really difficult to describe how intense that feeling is."

1. Aldo (Jace Picken) talks about his plan to seduce Janice. 2. Huey (Chris Volk) is told that he should leave by Theresa (Jaime Kuntz) because he can't have both Janice and her, and he needs to get out until he decides. 3.

Man of La Mancha The Musical of Impossible Dreams A true classic of the Am erican musical theatre, Man of La Mancha opened on Broadway in 1965. Since some of its scenes are quite sordid, the m usical is rarely given amateur performances. However, although we acknowledge that it is undeniably adult, we feel that this story of a man who is willing to die to help others realize their individual dignity and worth is profoundly beautiful and ChrisÂ tian in spirit. And every night we thrill to see not only Cervantes, the man, but Don Q uixote, one of the great masterpieces of world literature, get out of prison and be rescued from oblivion.

Student Support Services The Learning Resource Center changed both its nam e and services to better meet the needs of students. Thomas Hartman, today is the coordinator of Student Support Services and he has taken on a few new hats. N ow he oversees an office that not only provides the services found in the former Learning Resource Center, but also meets the needs of students with documented disabilities and offers local and national testing for various programs. "W ith regard to testing, we offer the college entrance exams such as the ACT, the Graduate Record Exam, and the National Teachers Exam ," Hartman says. "W e also provide students with the opportunity to take the College Level Exam ination Program and such other tests. "For those students with documented disabilities, we provide books-on-tape, notetakers, readers, and special testing arrangements," he adds. Hartman and his staff still maintain a resourse library com plete with college catalogs, national test study guide books, and basic skill enhance ment resources. They also offer tutoring services and outreach program m ing such as conquering test anxiety and writing term papers. "The primary focus of the office is to provide programs and services for our students that will encourage them to stay in school and tc help them succeed," states Dr. Gary Biller. "Every year the num ber of contacts we have with students, and the number of students who have used our services has increased," Hartman adds. "W e've added these new services so our students now can sim ply come to our office for all their needs."

Services Offered free tutoring; academ ic skills enhancem ent; career counseling, national and local testing services; assistan ce to students with disabiliÂ ties; various com puter applications; the academ ic m onitoring program ; groups and w orkshops; developm ental cou nseling; college success courses fo r credit; resource library; and a convenient study/hom ew ork area.

Changes are abound for what is probably the second highest used facility on campus daily, the Student Center. The Student C enter is home to not only the University Bookstore, but also to the Marriott food service branch which runs the cafetria and snack bar, and m ost recently it has become the hom e for the offices of Residential Life and the office of Student Activities. W ith food in mind, Marriott has added value m enus in the snack bar and holds special promotional campaigns for com uting students. In the basement, with seating always having been a problem, new tables have been added and the Blue Room opened to make room for more students. Catering to the students the Center is rem aining open longer so that organiza tional groups can do more in the facility and weekend competative tournaments are held in recreational type games for student participation.

Be there, it's groovy

SPRING INFERNO In the fall of 95, the Campus Activity Board had already begun plans for a traditional week in the Spring. Known as Sure Beats Winter Week it was a time designed to beat the winter blues. This year the board deceided to heat things up and groove things out, so a theme was placed on the traditional title, and Spring Inferno 1996 a tribute to the 1970's was bom. The week of entertainment and fun was to start immediatly folowing Spring Break so ways were needed to promote the week. Fliers went out to all the students reminding them of the planned events, fortune cookies with a special promotional message inside were handed out and C.A.B. got t-shirts to advertise the event and the board. Rob Paravonian, a musical comedian, from Waukegan, 111. delighted the audience with parodies of songs and offbeat humor Monday evening. Tuesday comedic jugglers Clockwork lit up the stage with mind defying stunts. The movie 12 Monkeys brought 150 students together Wednesday. Flashback 70's Prime Time hit Thursday as the Residence Halls provided a night of Fon Du and crazy game shows. Floor Fued pitted team against team asking questions from survays of DSU students. The Dating Game allowed a lucky guy and girl a night out with Heather Schaefer and Kirt Gordan. The Roommate Game showed how much people really know about the person they live with, and The Face the Music challenge witnessed Bill Gerving facing the final test 70's music. Friday, Chicago's three-piece live alternaÂ tive rock band Simple Simon, heated up the ballroom's stage, playing cover and original tunes for three hundred people. That same night mother nature dealt a blow, and by noon on Saturday 3 to 7 inches of wet snow had piled up and closed down the interstate, the final perfomer for the week was stranded in Bismarck and the show had to be cancelled. The Spring Inferno close returned us to the reality of North Dakota spring weather...and that would be far from groovy.

V alentine's D ay by Charles Bauer THE man sat on the park bench and w atched the people stroll by in a nice and orderly fashion. N one of them w ere in a hurry, m ost of them looked quite happy w ith the d ay's events, and all of them looked like w ell-rounded individuals. It was February 1 2 ,1 9 9 6 , and they all had plenty of time to find that perfect gift for their special som eone. He still had two days to w atch people and he w anted to m ake the m ost of it. It w as am azing how clear it all seem ed once a person had it all in perspective. Yes, m any people would see the truth by the tim e m idnight cam e on February fourteenth and then he would be able to die with som ething accom plished in his life. He closed his eyes and pictured his lovely Julie. H er dark blonde hair that he w ould tw ist in his fingers and the sm ell at night while he held her in his arms, the curve of her w aist w hen they danced and the sm all patter of her feet w hen she w alked from the couch to where he sat m ost evenings w atching T.V. Y es, she w as beautiful and he loved her and w anted to buy her som ething nice but cou ld n't think of anything. He had thought about jew elry, but then it occurred to him that she w as not a m aterialistic w om an. Then he had considered chocolates and had rem em bered her allergies. H e w as holding his w allet in his hands and looked dow n at the few bills that w ere there. Tw enty bucks and payday w asn't for another week. He sighed and looked across the street. There w as a vendor selling w hat appeared to be tiny glass globes with figures inside of them. They looked very pretty, and he stood up to buy one. And then he saw the sign on the front of the cart. It said: SOLD OUT UN TIL TOM ORROW . He sm iled bitterly because he knew by tom orrow his tw enty dollars would be gone w ith the alcohol he would consum e tonight. H e calm ed dow n by telling him self that Ju lie probably w ould n't like them anyway. H e looked past the vendor and saw the perfect bar for the night. It had an old look to it and looked like it would be filled w ith old men and perhaps a few of the youngsters that liked to do their drinking alone and in the silence w here they could be at one w ith their thoughts. Yes, it was a good bar and it did n't look too expensive. He w as going to be very drunk by the end of the night. M aybe they would have dollar shots going and he would tip the tendor three and drink seventeen. M aybe. It was the next day and his head felt as if it had been in a vice the w hole night before. He sw allow ed three aspirin dry and gagged on the bitter taste. He had been fortunate at the bar, they had dollar shots and he had ordered them to be put in front of him one b y one. W hen they had all been poured he had drank them dow n in the exact order that they had been laid. By the tim e he had been half done, his head had already been swim m ing and the stool had becom e nothing m ore than a pole w ith a seat. They had taken his keys, and he had w alked home. N ow he w as sitting at his kitchen counter w ondering w hat he w as going to do for a gift for Julie. H e rum m aged through the draw er and came upon an envelope. N ext m onth's rent. He though m aybe he could use this and pay the rent w ith his check next week. Yes, he just w ouldn't tell her. It w ould ruin the surprise. He opened it up and looked inside. Three hundred dollars. It would be enough for roses and those beautiful glass balls he had seen the day before. H e sm iled and w alked to the bathroom to take a show er. He was happy. He spent the day sitting in the sam e bench and w atching people. He was fascinated by all the brilliant colors that the people wore as it glared so violently against the w hiteness of the snow. They w ere beautiful. Y es, that w as the w ord for w hat they were. Beautiful. They were angels and he w as but a dirty old man sitting and w atching them. But tom orrow he w ould be an angel too. Yes, he would be his ow n special type of angel. And he w ould bring love to the world. Yes, love greater than any love had ever know n. He w ould love. He bought the glass globe and w ent to the bar and got drunk after buying two dozen roses. A gain, he w as m ade to w alk hom e, but he was happy. Tom orrow w as V alentine's Day. V alentine's Day. He saw her w alking. H er legs w ere not too long, but they w ere just right. She w as a goddess in her own way, beautiful to look at, beautiful to touch, beautiful to know. He pulled a single rose out o f the box and w alked over to her. From here he could see her lovely dark blonde hair just barely peaking out from beneath the red stocking cap she wore and w anted to touch that hair. She saw him com ing and then she smiled w hen she saw the rose. N o, he had not forgotten the day, after all, she w as his love. He sm iled and held the rose out to her. The wom an sw itched her shopping bag from one hand to the other to accept the rose. He w ondered w hat w as inside the bag. Perhaps a tie or maybe some new cologne. Yes they w ould kiss and perhaps later on they would m ake love and bring V alentine's D ay to a perfect end. She reached out for the rose and beam ed at this old and kindly face as her cheeks grew rosy w ith her blush. Then the blush turned to a bright, running dark velvet blood as the hand that held the box of roses dropped the box and appeared with the screwdriver. She opened her mouth to scream , but he drove the screw driver into her lips, gum s, and throat, over and over again. She droppped to the ground and lay quivering, her hand grasping for the roses that lay on the ground as if they could save her life. He watched her as she began to die and then bent over and kissed her cut, bleeding, tortured lips and she kissed him back w ith her last rem aining breath. A t that same m om ent he knew that she loved him and that they w ere united in her death. He sm iled and walked off, w histling a slow, low tune. He walked into his hom e and took off his coat and w alked into the bedroom . He saw the shape lying in the bed and smiled. Julie m ust have beaten him hom e and w ent to bed early. He rem oved his clothes and craw led into bed w ith her and put his arms around her. She had lost a lot of weight lately and he w ondered if she was ill because she had been so cold the last few years. He closed his eyes and started drifting off to sleep, the bent, dried, silver ancient hairs of the corpse m oving with his heavy breath.

Jennifer Jones, a sopho more in the Associate of Science in Practical Nurs ing Program at Dickinson State University, was recently named Dickinson State "Student Nurse of the Year." Jones, a native of Buf falo, South Dakota who worked as an emergency medical technician before enrolling at Dickinson State to pursue her nurs ing degree, was among the list of students nomi nated by University nurs ing faculty. The list was narrowed to four finalists by the University's Student Nurses' Association (SNA). The four finalists then went through an interview process with a panel of judges before Jones was proclaimed the winner. She will now go on to the North Dakota Student Nurse of the Year Competition. Three other candidates for the honor were Travis Maher and Gina Frederick, both juniors in the Bachelor of Science in Nursing Program, and Carrie Hall, a sophomore in the Associate of Science in Practical Nursing Pro gram. "All four students were extremely good candi dates," says Jane Hoerner, assistant professor of nursing and co-advisor to SNA. "Any one of them would have represented us very well at the state level. We as advisors are really proud of all the candidates."

"The support of my family and my professors has helped me to get to this point. I'm excited to represent Dickinson State at the state level." Three of the last four winners of the state Stu dent Nurse of the Year competition were Dickinson State Universit students. Jones does not feel any pressure, though, to continue the tradition. "I'm just going to be myself and do the best I can," she says. "That is al I can do." Criteria for being named "Student Nurse of the Year" includes in volvement in the Student Nurses' Association and the Nursing Students' Association of North Dakota, willingness to make public appearances, and an ability to demon strate the principles of nursing.

"The road for you from this day on is a road you build." United States Senator Byron Dorgan left the class of 1996 with those words during the University's 76th comm encem ent exercises. Concerns over weather, stresses of final exams, and the anxieties of finding employment were forgotten as graduates celebrated the end of one facet of their lives and the beginning of another. Senator Dorgan warned graduates that they would be entering a world where negativity abounds, and urged them to "be a wave of hope." "You are going to leave college and enter a nation full of skepticism ," Dorgan said. "There is an army of critics ready to find fault in the world today. The good news, though, is that the bad news is w rong." "W e have the finest health care system and the m ost free and open political system in the world. This country was built by builders. Now you will write the script for your life, and I hope you will be a reservoir of hope for this country and go out and make this world a better place." Upon conferring degrees on the graduates, University President Philip W. Conn encouraged them to keep in contact with the school and become active members of its alumni com m u足 nity. "W e hope you will stay in touch with us and let us know how you are doing and what you are accom plish足 ing, because you can be sure we are going to stay in contact with you," Dr. Conn said. "W e are proud of you, we are thankful that you chose Dickinson State, and we look forward to hearing of your successes and accom plish足 ments in the future." The class of 1996 had 267 gradu足 ates and 146 of those students walked across the stage to receive their diplomas.

Student Senate For the first time in recent years, the Senate took an active roll in just about everything that happened on campus, from working concession stands for sporting events to getting Dickinson State back to active status in the N orth Dakota Student Association. Active status was made by attending m eetings around the state and taking leadership roles on special committees within the N.D.S.A. This year has been one of change and growth for Dickinson State. M any steps forward were taken by the University ,and the Senate was active in all of them. The Klinefelter Hall renovation project, the completion of wiring all buildings, and steps toward the renovation of the Student Center, were all projects that took great lengths to get on the ball. Also, the revital ization of the cheerleading and intram ural programs, along with the creation of a dance team, e made the school a bubbling campus once again. Many of the Student Senate members received great honors outside the organi zation. Treasurer, Travis Maher, was elected treasurer for the North Dakota Student N urses' Association. Kari Odermann, was appointed student repre sentative on the North Dakota State Board of Higher Education for the 1996-1997 academic year. Also, many Senators held positions on other university committees. "W e are already looking forward to next year and the com pletion of many proejects and the possibility of many more," stated President, Cody Brown.

Student Ambassadors Throughout the course of the year ,the Student Ambassadors tackled many roles. The list of things these students did is long and speaks for the success of the organiza tion: -sold tickets for the annual "Free Fall Tuition" raffle -ushered at various alumni and university functions. -held the new "$100 Dollar Bill" raffle -gave campus tours to prospective stu dents -participated in the Alumni Phonathon -collected cans on campus for scholarship money -called prospective students to provide inform ation on the school and answer any questions they may have -entered a float in the homecoming parade. -sent members to the regional Student Foundation/Student Alumni Association Convention in Ames, Iowa -entered the "Spirit Sheet" contest held during the Flomecom ing W eek -serve as official representatives of the university.

W e've been on more trips than Jerry Garcia. 7. We have unlimited (sort of) driving privileges with DSU vehicles. 6. We serve more consumers than McDonald's (well, almost). 5. We get more freebies than the U.S. Senate. 4. We guide more people than the Lewis & Clark expedition ever did. 3. We travel to faraway, exotic, important places (Geek, anyone?). 2. We gain really sexy thighs by walking backwards on tours. 1. Alumni are always good for a free round of drinks.

Providing Entertainment W elcom e Back W eek, Semi-Formal, Sure Beats W inter W eek, and everything in betw een are the focus of the Campus Activity Board. This organizational offbranch of the Student Senate helps create the fun that goes along with studying. M ade up of 10 to 20 volunteer students the Cam pus Activiy Board's purpose is to plan and work for social events for the student body. The events, range from blockbuster movies, live musical entertainment to novelty program s and comedic perfor mances of all types. Year round board m em bers work in conjunction with Advisor Hal Haynes to ensure that activities are available for students. The 1995 fall semester saw the beginning of weekend program m ing sponsored by C.A.B., in an effort to help keep students on campus during the weekends. Along with planning entertainment, C.A.B. puts on two campus wide blood drives and oversees the Campus Program ming Comm ittee. This C.A.B. branch provides funding for the faculty film fest, diversity program m ing—recognizing Black H istory month and Gay /Lesbian aware ness, and runs the Kiddie Hawk programs. 1995 Fall Activities Movie—Outbreak Comedian—David Orion Movies—Disclosure & Boys on the Side Dance—Celebrations Mobile Music Country Western Concert—Theresa Movie—While You W ere Sleeping 6 DJ Dances—K-Hook & Music Explosion Movie—Apollo 13 Live Hip Hop Band—Brass Bullitt Novelty Program—The Alpha Experience Movie—Batman Forever Movie—Dangerous Minds

University Players To create and promote an understand足 ing of drama in the southern region of North Dakota is one of the main goals for this organization. Undergoing a name change, the Drama Club becam e the University Players during the Spring of 1996. In past years the club had sold conces足 sions and maintained coat checks for play productions put on by the Theatre Depart足 ment. But, with the rem odeling of Stickney Auditorium and the no food and drink policy being enforced the traditional fundraisers had to be revamped. So, the annual Children's Theatre production became the clubs main fundraising ven足 ture, with all patrons being asked to pay a small amount for their ticket to view the show. After saving up for a year, the club utilized some of the funds to aid in making a Spring Break Study Tour to W innipeg, Maitoba Canada. W hile in Canada, 12 members and advisor Dr. Kenneth Haught were able to view The Good Sisters (Les Belles Sorues) at the MTC W arehouse and see W innipeg's professional theatre troupe perform Cyrano de Bergerac.

Freshm en Flonor Society

PHI ETA SIGMA The oldest freshmen honor society in the United States began a chapter at the U niversity in the spring semester of 1996. The society is designed specifically for freshmen who have completed their first term in college with high academic standing. As a new charter member, Dickinson State was also allowed to admit upperclassm en who would have been inducted as freshm en had the university held a chapter. "It's an honor society that recognizes academic excellence," says Dr. Hardin Aasand, advisor to the chapter. "The students who are inducted are then eligible for $1,000 and $2,000 scholarships, and for graduate scholarships." Tw enty-seven students, faculty and friends of Dickinson State University were inducted this year.

PHI SIGMA PI Honor Fraternity This past year, Phi Sigma Pi worked to make money to enable a few members to attend the 1996 National Convention next fall. D SU 's Pi Chapter only has an opporÂ tunity to go to this convention every two years because it is held on the East Coast; therefore, m aking money was a major goal this year. Pi started the year by entering a float in the H om ecom ing parade, and sponsoring a jello fight on the Student Center lawn. M onthly bake sales were also held along with car washes. The spring semester w itnessed a food drive, balloon bouquet sales for Valentine's Day, working at the Boy's Optimist Basketball tournament, and another Easter Food Drive for the Amen food pantry. To close the year ,the annual Founders Day Banquet was held on April 13 at the Elks, and the group made time for bowling and watching movies.

INTRAMURAL ATHLETICS

Sportsmanship, com petition, and fun is the com bination that you get w hen com pet ing in intramural athletics. The only criteria needed to participate is that you be a student at DSU, and all that you have to do is sign up. Approxim ately 350 students did just that in 1996. There are a variety of activities to choose from: flag football, basketball, volleyball, softball, water sports, and badminton. Director of Student Activities, Hal Haynes said, "W ith the newly founded popularity, plans for new activities are in the w orks." Billiards, bowling, and table tennis are the three planned for the fall of '96 and the spring of '97. The turnouts in basketball brought out 200 students, consisting of 21 teams. "B y far the m ost popular activity," says Haynes. Flag football had the second biggest turnout w ith 128 students participat ing. With the success of intram urals, flaws also surfaced. Terrell Lindsey said, "The rosters of each team are unequal, so they need to find a way to evenly match teams in each league. Because there is no cost to participate in intram urals, Haynes had to petition the student Finance Com m ission last year. "W ithout funding the whole program would be non-existent," claims Haynes. There was money allocatted, which went towards pur chasing equipment, trophies, and awards for players and teams that excelled in their particular sport. Tournaments are held at the end of each activity to determine the champions. Later, the champions can possibly m ove on and compete at a national tournament.

Pacesetters To evangelize, by helping people to develop a relationship with Jesus Christ, to nurture that relationship toward maturity, and to equip each person with the spiritual tools needed to repeat this process, are the three main goals that the Pacesetters, a religious organization intend to achieve. Advised by Ron Hulstein, they strive to introduce Christ to the students, and provide an atmosphere to worship and praise Him. The group also provides opportunities for all who are interested to interact and discuss the main issues of Christian thought. Another main objective set out by the group is to pioneer new ministries where Christ is known. This may take place on various college cam puses, or other places, like overseas missionaries. The club sponsors various activities like swim m ing parties and scavenger hunts. They meet for regular Bible studies and w orship sessions on a weekly basis.

The Dickinson State "Forenshaw ks" completed their season with a new experience...national competition, the first time ever. Brenda Fink and Jaim e Kuntz represented the team at the National Forensic Association national finals held at Western Illinois University in Macomb, II. Facing over 1,000 competitors from 107 schools was exhilarating and challenging. Brenda's forte, inform ative speaking featu red 34 sections with six students per section. Her speech on h. pylori bacteria won her a first place in one round. Although neither student broke into any quarter-final action, the group had a positive experience for the first time at a national tournament. Even if large numbers were not scored ,the team placed higher than teams from Capital University(the team advisor's alma mater) Indiana U.-Purdue at Ft. W ayne, Kent State, Manchester College, the host school and Harvard University ,just to nam e a few.

Art Club The Art Club offers experience in applied art activities (advertising design, illustration, sign painting, etc.).

5.0.T.A. Students Other Than Average (S.O.T.A.) is a group where non-traditional students can come together and communicate with each other. "W e create friendships and support groups for traditional and non-traditional students," says Scott Pribyl, president. The group tries to "prom ote solidarity" and helps to "overcom e education barriÂ ers." S.O.T.A. members have a different lifestyle than traditional students. Most have families to support and households to run in addition to attending college. Som e members have been out of school for 2-10 years and don't have the study skills that they once did. The groups fundraising was done in cooperation with Marriott. They set up and ran the concession stands at DSU home games. The members also provided once-am onth outings for students and their families to attend such things as a club picnic or for something larger like a ski trip. An honor society, OmiCron Psi, has been established through S.O.T.A. only for the older than average students. For the future, Pribyl hopes "that 5.0.T .A . continues to be a viable organizaÂ tion that creates support for the other than average student. We want to find solutions through each other and becom e more of a voice on cam pus."

College Republicans The G.O.P. is alive and well here on campus, and it is in the form of the students involved in the College Republicans political organization. The group began several years ago with the purpose to inform the college community of the local, state, and national issues that pertain the G.O.P. They also encourage student involvement in the Republican party. The numbers are up this year with the Dickinson State chapter consisting of roughly twenty five members. According to Advisor William Goetz, "Many students are becoming involved in not only activities on campus, but throughout Dickinson, and North Dakota". Involved heavily at the state level, Presi足 dent Jaime Rivera serves in the state organi足 zation. This year the group has been cam足 paigning for Republican Candidate Bob Dole. In February, Jaime Rivera, Thad Brinkman, Kent Andreas, and Holly Hecht traveled down to Iowa to volunteer for the Republican Caucus in Sioux City, Haywarden, and Lamars, Iowa where they had the opportu足 nity to meet and have supper with Senator Bob Dole. College Republicans are involved on campus in several projects. Most of these are to inform the students about what the Republican party is doing here and around the nation.

Women of the Court The Lady H awk basketball team entered the 1995-1996 season with very high expectations. After coming off a 7-19 year the previous season, the team virtu ally reversed their win-loss record and finished at 17-9, just two victories from the school's record for Most Wins. Con tributing to that winning effort were seniors Patty Jo VandenBurg and Connie Dahlin. As captains, they provided great leadership for their teammates through their individual efforts and examples on and off the floor. Melani Lowman, an NDCAC all-conference selection along with VandenBurg, was also a major contributor to the team 's success. "In our conference you have to have at least 3 major contributors and a host of role players to experience success. The NDCAC is one of the toughest conferences in the nation w ith regard to "inter-conference com petition" and you simply can't w in if you only have one impact player," states Coach W akefield. "I felt strongly at the beginning of the year, and, despite falling short of our goal of winning the cham pionship, I still feel strongly that we had all of the necessary elements for a great season. Sure, we did not win the NDCAC but we still had a great year." "W e had a balanced attack with good inside and outside scoring, great transi tion, and probably what I feel was our greatest strength, versatility on the defen sive end. The m aturity of our players enabled us to switch defenses at any time throughout the game and put the oppo nent at a disadvantage". Other bright spots emerged throughout the season were. The Lady Hawks were rated as one of the top 20 NAIA Division II teams in the nation, entering at 16th. They also were the 3rd in team scoring at 64 ppg and gave up the least amount of points making them the best defensive team in the NDCAC. Patty Jo VandenBurg led the conference in the assists category, averaging 4.5 for 22 games and she shot an im pressive 47% from the floor. She was also the 4th leading scorer averaging 13.8 ppg and narrowly missed being chosen as the Most Valuable Player in the NDCAC. Melani Lowman led the NDCAC in rebounding with 8.7 per game and was the second leading scorer at 15.3 ppg. Connie Dahlin was also a major team contributor despite lacking recognition, She averaged 10.6 ppg and 5.5 rpg and was the team's leading field goal shooter at 49%. 1. In the center position Melani Lowman fights for the controlling tip against Mayville. 2. Clearing the boards, Shana Engellant passes off her rebound late in the game.

1. Jeff Enzminger with a takedown. 2. Gaining control over a Washington wrestler Tory Teigen looks for his next opening. 3. Looking to get head control Matt Meyer works for an outside tie. 4. With a look of determination on his face Arlan Anderson searches for his shot. 5. Troy Henderson shooting.

WRESTLING: Front-Asst. Coach Joel Meyer, Ben Beckler, Carlos Becerra, Eleno Vallejo, Mike Pazdernik, Arlan nderson, Drew Mogan, Jeff Enzminger, Shane Cundiff, Asst. Coach Cody Gorder. Back-Head Coach Thadd 'Donnell, Brandon Lerbakken, Eric Hursman, Chuck Doeden, Tory Taigen, Dan Farstveet, Matt Meyer, Pat King, roy Henderson, manager Mandy Spierkemeier.

Match for Match The wrestling team began the season with only two returning All-Americans, Pat King and Mike Pazdernik. Combined with several returning national qualifiers, they helped solidify a very young team. At the helm for the Blue Hawks was Head Coach Thadd O'Donnell, the NAIA 1995-1996 Coach of the Year. O'Donnell states, "The honor actually goes to the athletes, they are a dedicated and very hard working bunch of young m en." Also on the coaching staff were Joel Meyer, a 3 time All-Am erican and Cody Gorder, a 2 time All-American. The season was packed with tough com petition and O 'Donnell adds, "Our young wrestlers took some knocks but they have big hearts and adversity is a word they have come to live by." With such an inexperienced team positive experiences were a m ust if they were going to mature and develop into a top notch team. The team 's success w asn't measured by the num ber of wrestlers qualifying or reaching All-Am erican status but more importantly by their im provem ent each time they stepped on the mat. Pat King ended his collegiate career by earning All-Am erican for 190 lbs. A leader on the team, he will greatly be missed next season. Freshmen, Jeff Enzm inger and Drew Mogan also went All-American. Enzminger, who is tough on his feet and fun to watch wrestle because he is always hustling and attackÂ ing his opponents, was named Most Valuable by his teammates for the seson. M ogan earned the Most Improved Award as he made great strides in adjusting to college level wrestling. He gained confiÂ dence throughout the year . The more confident he becam e ,the more aggresive was his style. The other M ost Valuable wrestler was Ben Beckler. An aggresive takedown wrestler, he only had three losses at the 3 / 4 m ark of the season. Mike Pazdernik spent the year as team cheerleader. N ursing a shoulder injury, he spent the season on the sides promoting work ethic and team togetherness to his peers. For his determ ination to not let his injury get him down, he begame the Most Dedicated. The H ardest W orker of the Year went to Eleno Vallejo. W restlers are a rare breed, They put themselves on the line everytime they step on the mat. The young Blue Hawks gained more confidence each time they laced up their shoes and set out to prove how exciting they can make the sport. 1. After a hard fight the ref declares Drew Mogan with the match win. 2. Ben Beckler controls the match as he dominates on top.

Men's & Women's Tennis "A ll the players on the w om en's and m en's tennis teams have greatly improved their gam e this year, " said Kay M oody, DSU tennis coach. The women finished with 0 in 6, and men finished with 1 in 5 for 1996. Shaundel Krum heuer, a freshm en, was a new recruit on the w om en's team. "She has a nice baseline and developed her game even m ore this year," Moody said. "She's someone to look at in the future." T.J. Lackner, Scott Lennick, and Brandon Svihl are three freshmen playing on the m en's team. "Their skills are overall very good," said M oody. "It's a good freshm an class". A returning player this season was Brent Forster. "H e's an excellent player because he has a good all-round game, is a very good athlete, and has a great tennis background," states Moody. Forster was #2 in singles for the team. A senior that is norm ally seen running down the football field was Wes Lindeen, "W es brings respect to the gam e," explains Moody. "H e's a great example of how to com pete and has good sportsm anship." Lindeen played #6 in the championship. The tennis team had some obstacles at the end of the season. The DSU tennis courts were being dem olished, so finding facilities to practice was difficult.

SPIRIT LEADERS The cheerleading squad this year has four active members and one mascot. The maximum capacity for the squad is eight. The responsiblities are to cheer at all home and away football and basketball games, and other public school functions such as parents weekend, senior day on campus and other public university programs. The prelim inary tryouts are in April for the new students interested and they are also offered in the months of June, July and the first week of school for those who couldn't make the first round. Some of the qualifications the judges look at for the try outs are. "Ability to be athletic, physically fit, good presence, such as smiling, poised, having a cheerful disposition and a peppy attitude," states advisor Hal Haynes. Haynes also adds, "The most important aspect is sportsmanship and the young ladies this year are exceptional, they are a credit to the institution."

1. One of the moves of being a cheerleader is getting through the bad times, Brandy Coughlin, Brandi King and Kari Odermann watch as a penalty is called against the football team during a home game. 2. With a little pep in their step Kari Odermann, Katy Burkhardt, Brandi King and Katie Severson perform at the bonfire. 3. Heidi Schock prepares for the start of the fight song.

BE DAZZELED WITH THE DAZZLERS A new organization was formed this year due to student pressure and an effort to increase school spirit. 1995-1996 is the first year for the Dazzlers. The Dazzlers are a dance team currently made up of eight members. Hal Haynes, the team 's advisor, said the members were picked in tryouts that dove-tailed off of cheerleader tryouts last April. Haynes said the group was started to add school spirit, support sports teams, and because several students voiced an interest in a dance team at DSU. "They have exceeded m y expectations as far as their ability to perform and get the job done. I am very proud of them," said Haynes. Hopes are high that the team will increase in size. The ideal number looked for would be a team of 15 or 20 girls. You can see the team perform at home basketÂ ball and football games, during senior days, and parent's week.

The yearbook theme this year is Reflections because everything that happens around us now can be reflected on later. How better to do this than with a book dedicated entirely to this purpose.

Don't let anyone tell you differently, but being the editor of the Prairie Smoke was more time consuming than my sophomore and junior year of college combined. W hat an experience! I received the rare opportunity of being a staff of ONE, so I now can design, input, caption, write, and proof a yearbook page like nobody's business. I was alone in the hands-on work, but was aided with the details by many other people. I would like to give them a round of applause. For giving of their personal time, grateful acknowledgem ents go out to: *A11 the organizational leaders who provided copy information and photographs to insure the groups were recog nized. T h e News & Feature W riting students—Kipp Gould, Joy Lindbo, Matt Davidson, and Kris Dassinger. T o m Hartman and M arty Sabolo for identifying the unknown. *Deb Hourigan for proofing sections of the book and having a general knowledge of everyone. “T ren t M yran for all his help at crunch time. “'David Schlosser for helping to keep me sane.. “'Melissa Cooley for the encouragem ent, help, and advice. *Dr. Gary Biller for giving me the chance to be the editor. *My college advisor for four years, Dr. Stephen Robbins—you believed and did what you could—bless you. “'Rob Lynam for taking on the difficult role of photographer. He helped supply the book with many spectacular photos that tell how the year went, For your efforts I give you a standing ovation. T h e Office of University Relations: Sandi Bates for help in solving problem s that I could not and for all the advice along the way. Diana Knutson for the large am ounts of inform ation (confidential and otherwise) that was needed about the university. Joe M oore for the many photograps and the sports information he provided. You are the holder of the key I came to borrow more than once, All I can give to you are my many thanks as I bow down to you in gratitude. “'H al Haynes, my advisor. You made things happen and kept the ball rolling am ong all the unexpected setbacks. Thanks.

Four years of college have come to an end. W ith the end goes the Favorites, the siblings, the Ernstwhistles, the EClub, slots, Jerky, cows, the language of M ollm anese, the famous raspberry kamikaze, Free Bird, the legend of peas, Bernie, live oak moss, the Ivanhoe, TBA, frisbee golf (the sport of kings), candy watches, coffee achievers, the green room, and all the other special little friend involvem ents I had over four years that I couldn't include in the year book. W hat I will remember most about Dickinson State University is the diversity of the people and the attitudes. Fun, excitement and trouble were always present, but it took just a bit of im agination and desire to find it.
