The range of the emotions we experiencedthis yearaswe putthebook togetheris vast There was stress, love, tears and laughter The memories of thisedition go beyond what it captures and,fortheyearbook staff, extends into what we each experienced.

For publications coordinator, Dennis Fields, thiswas a lot of last-minute work On behalf of the yearbook staff and myself, I offerour thanks.And ourapologies. Sometimes our ideological, we-canchange-the-world attitudeblinded us from reality

Forouradvisors, thiswas an alternating nightmare and dream. They tried to keep pace with our "progressive" technology Sometimes, the independence of the staff was a help. Sometimes a hindrance. To them,Iextend my heart-felt appreciation fortheirsupport and help.For myself, this was a projectofInfinity and Jelly Doughnuts;dreams and realities It is the only way Ican explain why I did the thingsI did lt was a project inwhich Ihad torely on others to help me get through. I know my parents still shake their heads and wonder Iknow my staff, despite theirinsight, still wonders. The truth is, I still wonder.

For photo editor Kim DeMerchant, this was the mountain and the valley of her senior year It made her cope with stress and pressurethatfew ofuswillever know A good cry was hersolution.Itopened the emotional flood gates and allowed her to continue atthe task.My eternal gratitude goes out to her.

For lab tech Jody Barker, this was an unchartered world.Somewhere we allhad to draw a line between ourselves and the yearbook Forourfavorite, laid-back West Virginian, thispresented hisgreatestchallenge Iappreciated his effort, regardless His all-nightersand personal sacrificewill long be remembered.

For photographer Steve Green,thiswas an adventure. A compulsive class-cutter, he struggled with a new responsibility where many people relied on him He, working on hismaster'sdegree in counseling,was definitely an asset to the staffas he had a psudeo-internship as yearbook counselor.Despite hislatestart, I appreciateall ofhis work on thesportssection and acknowledge the fact it wouldn't have been the same without him.

For therestofthestaff, this wasalearning experience.The fact remains — to be involved took a degree ofself-motivation. The work involved trimmed the original staffdown toa handful.But to those who stuck itout, thanks I will always wonder why we all went through this and ifithas any bearing on who we areand willbecome Itis doubtful that it cannot but have changed ourlives.

For you,thereader and final judge, this isanother yearbook Itisn'tanything like theones you've had inthe pastorthe ones you may receive in the future Itis yours, despite the claim the staff makes to it I hope you enjoy it fornow and theyearsto come And, I thank you, for you are the ultimate reason for Selah 1989.

Closing

Infinity is every dream. Infinity is every hope.Infinity isevery aspiration. Itisthe faith placed in a sovereign God. Itisthe intangible aspect ofstudent life. It is everythingthatgoes into athletics, butis not seen on theplayingfield. It is thevast arrayofpeople thatmake Liberty University more than an institutionof higher learning. Itis the call of the young champion.

Jelly doughnuts are therealities ofour lives. They are the wrinkled sheets, thelong lines and the empty mail boxes. They are the items of life we overlook. They arethepens,theshoesand theringofthealarm.

They arethe foodwe select for breakfast every morning. The arethethings reminding us we are only human.

1988-89was ayear to define the boundaries ofour lives — Infinity and JellyDoughnuts. We reached for the sky and knew ourfeet were still firmly planted on this earth. We looked to the only one who knew everything and He provided thestrength, endurance and hope on an individual basis. Itis ayearnot to beforgotten.

Infinity and Jelly Doughnuts.
