Orientation The First Step On September 3, 1988 uncertainty, fear, excitement, and expectations filled the air . The 7oo.new students arrived at PLU with luggage, questions, and the future lying before them . Ready or not , they were here to begin a new life. The first step was moving in. Noel Carey, a freshman in Harstad was impressed with the kindness of the football players. "1 thought it was going to take hours to move in, but the Lute guys came to the rescue and in no time 1 had my boxes all over the room and was trying to convince my two roommates that 1 really didn 't bring that much. " This was also a time to socialize with the people whom they would soon live with and cling to those first cou ple days . Next came the half a dozen welcomes, a good-bye to the parents, and they were off to Playfair. There was plenty of excitement in the CK as the new students played games,

screamed, cheered, and had a good time. They left the program smiling with new names and faces in their minds . Lindsay Nicol reflected, "With all the holding of hands, it felt like we were going to record 'We Are the World. '" The entire program was a good ice breaker and seemed to relax the students for the rest of the weekend. The rest of the time was filled with interest sessions, welcome speeches, and a sample of college food . All of this was preparation for Tuesday, the ยง first day of school and the <5 1988-89 Opening Convocation .โ ข ~ It was a time for the new W students to be recognized and to open the year with speeches made by President William Rieke and Amy Jo Mattheis.

Football Commitment to Excellence The Lutes started off the 1988 season with flying colors in a 30-7 win against the University of Puget Sound. The PLU football team kept up the hard work and commitment throughout the season resulting in ci 7-3 record. The Lutes advanced to the playoffs for the 10th year, pitting them against Oregon Tech, but came away with a disappointing loss. Though the season did not end as optimistically as the previous year 's, the Lutes did themselves proud, making the top 12 in the nation. Frosty Westering, PLU's head coach , was pleased with the season and looks forward to next year with optimism. "It was a very exciting year," said Westering. "The new facility, Sparks Stadium in Puyallup, is a tremendous place to play. It's our new home, and r think it will be for many years. A great football team needs great football players, and PLU was certainly not lacking in this area . John Kral. senior captain and defensive end, made Kodak All-American and shared Most Valuable Defensive Player honors with Mike Tuiasosopo, who was a lso All-Conference as a defensive tackle. Tom Napier and Harry Krebs were cho sen Most Valuable Offensive Players. Napier was also All-Conference as a running back . "The four senior captains, John Kral, Mike Tuiasosopo, Tom Napier, and Mark Miller, were an inspiration to our team and did a tremendous job," said Coach Westering. With 40 returning lettermen and an array of outstanding players, Westering said, "r look forward to next year with excitement and challenge." Maureen Brown jennifer Smith

The women's soccer team came together in August with high expectations and the knowledge that their only limits were the ones they placed on themselves. With that potential in mind, they pulled out all the stops and vowed to each other to ' 'just do it. " The season got underway with 13 consecutive wins, including pre-season action in Canada. The season's biggest disappointment came with the initial matchup against long-time cross-town rival UPS. After a hard-fought game and a class performance by the Lutes , a green and gold-shirted Logger tapped in a goal with just seconds remaining in the overtime period to claim the victory. With the kind of support evident at the UPS game behind them, PLU bounced back and claimed its seventh conference championship in eight years by beating Whitman 3-0. They then went on to tie as District I Champion with a win at Simon Fraser University on a field under five inches of water. That game qualified them for the regional tournament in Salem, Oregon. In the first game they tallied their 14th shutout of the season to beat Willamette University 3-0. The booters advanced to the final where they met UPS once again. This game had much higher stakes, as it determined the West Region Champion and participant in the 1988 National Championship Tournament in Abilene, Texas. PLU

stayed with the togetherness and hard work that got them there and set the tone for the game early by scoring just a minute and fifteen seconds into the match. The Loggers fell that day 3-1. The team reveled in this opportunity to introduce the rest of the country to "Lute-ball", a unique philosophy towards the game of soccer. They aspired to prove their belief that' 'being your best player for the team is second to being your best person for the team" is what makes ultimate winners. This commitment to each other led them to a 2-1 victory in their first game against defending national champions Berry, Georgia. The following evening in frigid winds, the Lute soccer team came together for one last game and claimed the national title by beating host Hardin-Simmons University 2-0. With the help of several stellar individual performances, the women's soccer team ended with a 21-2 record and a personal testimony that dreams really can come true . Sue Schroeder

One Step Short of Expectations The Far West Classic Tournament at Chico State, California showed promise for the men's soccer team at the start of the 1988-1989 year. But their season fell just short of their expectations. "We had a strong team. We had all the power houses in the right areas, but we just didn't live up to our pre-season expectations," commented junior Brian Gardner. The team finished their season on a "disappointing" note when they fell to Whitworth, which ended their chances at district and prevented them from their seventh straight NC1C championship. "I was disappointed, " said freshman Joel Carver, "The season just seemed to end abruptly ." However, according to Gardner, "Next year looks good. We have a good nucleus

that is coming back, and we will be much stronger." Goalie Chris Steffy agreed with Gardner and continued to say, "This season's team was the best I have seen since I have been here. We will miss Billy Rink, Tor Brattvag, and Darin Mott, and their positions are tough spots to fill, but we do have talented players coming back ." The season's record was 11-9-2 with Gardner as the lead scorer with 19 goals and 4 assists, who also received the Northwest Soccer Conference NCSC scoring title, followed by Brattvag, and Joel Carver. Rink, Brattvag, and Gardner were all named to the NA1A Honorable Mention All-Star squad. Mike Calwell was also cited for his consistent performance this season.

Cross Country Setting the Pace for Success On September I st, Coach Brad Moore, with the forty or so men and women that comprised the Lute cross country team as an audience, began to speak about goals, "I think the women would be selling themselves short if they didn't shoot to be national champions. The men should aim for the top 10 at the national meet." At the time, the end of the season and the national meet seemed as distant as the peaks of the Olympics were from the site of the quiet beginnings of the season at Lake Cushman. But the vision was established, and so, with the articulation of the vision, we renewed the family that is PLU cross country. Then came the hard work. Three times a week, we would gather to test ourselves: on the dusty trails of Fort Steilacoom, the dreaded campus hill, 800's, 1200's, 1600's, one after another, each building toward the vision, making us stronger. There were checkpoints along the way, such as the Emerald City Invitational, the Willamette Invitational, etc. If it sounds like this was all just running and nothing else, we need to accentuate the fact that the most important part of our team was the friendships we built. The team gave rise to the feeling of family-warmth, lightheartedness, acceptance. This is the main reason why so many runners stay with the program; the team members are so fun to be with. This synopsis can't end without highlighting some of the accomplishments of the individuals. The men were led by David Mays who at the "Lute Run" ran a 14:50, which set the tone for his season as a front runner. Every race he ran was faster and in his wake he left his competition, along with a 28 Saga

number of PLU course records. Underlying the laudable feats was the performance of the team as a whole-when it came down to what really mattered, everyone did their job and the team went on. The success of the women's team gave Lute cross country fans many reasons to sing their praises. They were led by the trio of Valerie Hilden, Joanne Maris, and Kelly Edgerton, who were literally unstoppable. Hilden, running in the top spot for the fourth consecutive year, finished /irst in all but one meet, while Edgerton and Maris were close on her heels all season. The ladies capped their season winning the national title with Hilden coming in !irst. Maris fourth, Edgerton II th, and Gwen Hundley 12th-all four gaining All-American status. Remember the goals that were set at the beginning of the season? Here's a list of Lute success: Women National Champions, team and individual District Champions, team and individual Conference Champions , team and individual Four Athletic All-Americans One Academic All-American Men Eighth place at Nationals District Champions, team and individual Conference Champions, team and individual One Athletic All-American Four Academic All-Americans Simply stated, it was the best year ever for PLU cross country. It will be remembered in the hearts of many for a long time to come. Scott Roberts Valerie Hilden

"In my four years of playing for the Lutes, this season was the best one the team has had." exclaimed senior captain Janet Holm. Yes, it was a good season for the Lutes . Their season ended with a 23-17 record, and finished fourth in districts, the first time in districts since 1982. "This team was the best I've coached since I've been here at PL U, ' , said coach Marcene Sullivan . Sullivan had help this year from assistant coaches Rusty Carlson and Julia Arce' . "We had a better season this year . The team was more positive. We had more 'family' unity and we played more like a team," said sophomore Erin Lee . Her thoughts were echoed by freshman Debbie Bennett, "We were close. We got along together which made playing easier. Travelling was especially fun. We had the unity and desire to be great." One game that c learly displayed the team's unity was on the road against Lewis and Clark . "We almost won . In the first two games, our defense, our serving, and our blocking was tough " said Bennett. "Physically, it probably was the best we had ever performed." Holm believed that "the district game against Alaska Pacific s howed how our working together proved us winners." Looking forward to next year, the team has only to advance. This season they gained respect in their conference, at districts, and here at PLU. Becky Benson Volleyball 29

Every four years, the nation is e motiona lly and p hysic ally attacked by the politics between two candidates, supposedly the superior lea ders of this great country. In 1988 , PLU students sorted through a morose of slogans to make a decision be tween the c and ida tes , Rep u blican Vice-President George Bush and Democrat Massachusset ts Governor Michael Dukakis . F o r s o me s tu d en ts , this p residential campaign was a mockery of our political system, while for others, it was a chance to get involved with politics. Washington College Republican Federation Secretary-Treasurer and chairpers on of PLU 's College Republicans, Mariean Lowas, organized students to welcome Vice-President Bush to his presidential w lly at the Tacoma Bicentennia l Pavilion . The students, combined with UPS Republictms, took part in unloading the vice-president' s plane , decorating the Pavilion ,

and crowd control d uring the rally. Elsewhere Governor Dukakis, the d e mocratic candidate , was busy plannin g a visit to Seattle and UPS. The visits proved to be his last ca mpaigning swing in the state of Washington. O n campus, some stude nts took part in various political activities. John Anderson, 1980 Presidential candidate spoke to a large group of students on the modern politica l scene. Other students were involved with the mock election on campus in which Dukakis prevailed. Although both the candidates survived the often critiCized campaign, it all came down to one day where everyone cast their own vote . In the end, Duka lds won the state of Washington, but his competition, G e orge Bush, captured the majority of the votes and was announced the new President of the United States . Steven Brown

Alpine Stepping A way From Stereotypes The characteristics that a person hears about residence halls generally fit into four basic categories-the zoo, the party hall , the mellow hal!, and the house of freaks. Alpine defied characterization in 1988-1989. Instead of falling into molds and becoming stagnant , Alpine was whatever it had to be at any given moment, and yet it was always a distinct and independent place . Perhaps most importantly, Alpine took on the dynamic of the people filling its halls and redefined it, without slapping that dynamic into a stereotype. Only the men and women of Alpine truly knew what it meant to be of Alpine. With the knowledge of life in Alpine , only a true resident of Alpine would understand the following : " Four cool dudes on a Saturday night, all messed up, with no babes " , " Shhhh ..... It's quiet hours!" , ' 'I'm picking up a Thermos for you ", " What are these women doing on the men's wing? " , and "Word! " What the people of Alpine said however, paled when compared

to their actions and their personalities . The residents of Alpine will always remember the Yack Queen, the Hellavator, Civil Diso bedience in Glass (Santa never said that), postSnow Dance nursery rhymes, H-Bombs, and video tours of ,the Hall Director 's apartment. They will also remember those who skipped down the hall, painting , being Mud Bowl champions, life in the main lounge after 2 a.m., the K-patrol, the fall retreat, and the wall hearts that were no more. Taken out of Alpine and showed to others, these phrases, events, and people mean little. As one Alpine resident said, "It doesn't matter, in one hundred years we'll all be dead, yo , yo , yo ... " What remains important is that all of these things meant something to the people of AJpine , and always will. The faces and e vents may eventually become blurred in their memories, but they will always remember that Alpine was "Where the Wild Things Are. " Ted Fellin <:

Cascade One Step Further Many students at PLU think of Cascade as a partying dorm , one where there is always excitement and , as o ur sweatshirts confirmed, "Never a Dull Moment." Although this is admittedly true , there is another aspect to Cascade-tradition. This year Cascade had its tradition ... with a twist. We started off the year with the widely-known Cascadian freshmen initiation events: the Baptism in the Bog, Cave Night, and a really annoying "Be Happy" theme. This time the dorm upperclassmen had an unusual and extreme fetish with, you guessed it, shaving cream. We also had our annual all-dorm retreat to Vancouver, B.C., where everyone got to know their fellow Cascadians a little bit better. Laser Tag became a major part of dorm late-night activities for some Cascadians this year, often taking the place of an older tradition called "studying. " During the holiday season we had the Cascade Christmas party, complete with a Santa Claus, the reading of the Christmas story, and stockings hung on the balcony with care . And throughout the year we had our dances . The pounding music and party atmosphere made everyone have a great night. We put on all of the traditional Cascade events, yet the year 1988- 1989 was a little different. We took the tradition and made it better-we gave it more excitement, we carried it to the extreme. We had the tradition, and then took it one step further . Whitney Kiefel

Evergreen Welcome to the Big Time Living within the walls of Evergreen in 1988-1989 proved to be a great experience for all. Beginning with freshmen initiation, everyone got into the spirit of feeding pudding to the person across from them at the table blindfolded and carrying on the tradition of baby bibs worn by all the freshmen. The Evergreen excitement continued throughout the year when the guys' intramural football team made it to the playoffs for the first time in many years. After all, as Robb Fairbairn put it, "The difference between men and boys is Evergreen." Broomball was also a big hit with many bruises as a result . The highlight of fall term was the retreat getaway to Fort Flagler to develop new friendships and deepen old ones as everyone had a blast playing Capture the Flag and Mission Impossible. "It was really easy to make friends because the dorm is like one big

happy family," Mike Baker said. Holly Thorpe verified this by saying "I consider Evergreen more my home than I think of my hometown as my home." Evergreen really exhibited dorm unity when they were able to pull themselves together and ended up in the top three for dorm decorations for Homecoming. Besides all the traditional fun of traveling treats, movie nights, and ice cream feeds, many Evergreeners exhibited the new thrill of laser tag. Interim and Spring semesters were filled with traditional Lute activities, off-campus unmentionables, and of course , the exuberant dorm craziness and the special people that made up Evergreen. Maria Padit summed it up when she said, "Evergreen has found the right balance between studying and socializing." Holly Love Eric Olson

Foss Taking Steps Toward Balance During 1988-1989 Foss Hall was probably one of the most well-rounded dorms on campus. It welcomed creativity and diversity. In an attempt to capture the best of both worlds and achieve a state of equlibirium, foss residents welcomed the absurd, studied when they could, acted on impulse, and took time out to live. The beginning of the year was filled with anticipation and excitement. Foss had just experienced a total renovation of the ir dorm. Residents returning from their summer vacations were welcomed by new carpet, paint, real color coordination , and nailpounding that started consistently at 8:00 a.m. every morning. "There is nothing like being able to walk barefoot on new carpet," said resident Jeff Phillips. You no longer had to worry about wearing shoes wherever you went. Gone was the mangy orange carpet, the mismatched paint job, and the scuffed walls . Foss now celebrated a new face and a new attitude. Residents were

much more enthusiastic and showed more pride for their "home" . Foss was made up primarily of freshmen and sophomores, and the enthusiasm of people just beginning their college experience was infectious and provided for an active and refreshing atmosphere. Their openness and animation enhanced the already active spirit. Kim Ammon, Campus Wide Programs representative marvelled at it and said, "People are so enthusiastic. It's greatl " The residents of Foss were always ready to try something new. Those who thought that the only pastime in Foss was to drink massive quantities of beer and test the potential of their stereos were sadly mistaken. The best part of Foss Hal! was the diversity of its people. Foss became a smorgasbord of creativity and the open atmosphere helped people to become well-rounded individuals and to achieve a balance between goal orientation and an appreciation of life.

Harstad When comparing PLU's dormitories it is obvious that Harstad is an original. Since it was the first building of the university, each room is unique . Harstad has become a campus landmark because of its history, its all-female residency, and its reputation. Being the only all-women dorm isn't all bad. Believe it or not, men have been known to enter our doors. What other dorm could boast about such a kinship with Rainier? Who else , except Harstad residents, could complain of missing undergarments from panty raids? Only the Harstad elite have been able to report the sighting of twenty guys parading through the lobby in towels. Harstad does have its advantages when considering relations with men . However, it's great not having the men around, too. As Kirsten Poehling stated, "It's a comfortable feeling to know that I can walk around in my underwear on the way to the bathroom in the middle of the night without the fear of bumping into a guy coming around the corner . " I think most Harstad residents would tend to agree with this statement. When asked to reflect upon the Harstad living environment, Jennifer Nelson said, "A friend said to me, when I told him of my placement in Harstad, that I should try to get out right away. 'Why?', I asked. 'It's too quiet,' he said, 'There's nothing ever going on; IT'S NOT FUNl' Yuck, I thought, what a place. However, after living in Harstad 1'd like to say my friend was

very, very wrong. Nelson continued: "Harstad can be a quiet, studious place at times, but we do know how to have a good time. Each floor had something unique about it. Ground's furnace room was said to house Freddy Krueger and also could be used as a makeshift sauna. First had rows upon rows of empty mailboxes and the overworked mens' restroom. Second was famous for its toilet paper welcoming cards and messages spelled out with tape stuck to the carpeting. Third had its doors closed much of the time so who really knows what they do? Fourth had the honor of having the most sensitive fire alarms in the most sensitive building on campus. The bum-buddies on fourth got to be good friends. Fifth floor always had some activity going on, but usually those invited could be found on the stairs in various states of respiratory failure. " Activities that the whole dorm particpated in were very successful. Homecoming '88, the Christmas party, movie nights, cartoon breakfasts, fire drills, the annual cruise with Rainier , and various spring activities wound up a year within this national landmark . Nelson, in response to her friend, summed up Harstad this way: "Harstad is not the boring, quiet 'nunnery' it's rumored to be. It's a great place to have lots of fun and find friends that will last a lifetime." It is a true original. Stephanie Bullard

glorified . .. obnoxious, loud, sarcastic , and most of aIL unique. Rainier is the only a1lguys dorm on campus, and while many may have opted for co-ed living, its residents argued that the atmosphere of Rainier can't be beat. Senior Karl Jastak explained that Rainier was the best dorm on campus because " the guys act more like themselves ". For those girls who came to PLU harboring a fear about the men of Rainier , sophomore Rob Jensen spoke for the whole dorm when he said, "We might

seem like really obnoxious guys, but once you get to know us we're pretty cool." Rainier may not have been famous for active participation in campus activities but when they did show up, it was guaranteed entertainment. The men could always be counted on to play up their image. Rainier seemed to be PLU 's answer to a year-long bachelor party with its poker nights, lewd comments from the sundeck, and its consistent mischievous nature. As freshman Ian Thomsic put it, " We take pride in being tacky." Maureen Brown Jennifer Smith

The L-shaped birch building located between Eastvold and Hinderlie on upper campus was always characterized by the phrase: "The lights are on but no one's home." However, during the 1988-89 school year Hong Hall transformed itself into one of the most active dorms on campus. The dorm placed itself in the center of the condom controversy by approving the installation of preventative vending machines in the bathroom. Between this controversy and the one resulting from the "Mr. Hong's Sex Wax" sweatshirt, Hong was featured in four front page articles in the Mooring Mast. Aside from Hong ' s many controversies, it was full of dorm activities. Broomball retreats, Mount Rainier trips, the HongKCCR dance , and a Tie Dye underwear party were among a few of the social highlights .

Ivy Good times were what Ivy was all about in 1988-1989. How else could you describe a wild group of animals coming together for one reason: to carry on Ivy traditions. This year was no exception when it comes to tradition. They started out the school year with freshmen initiation, which proved the freshmen could live up to animal standards. This enthusiasm carried over into other dorm functions like the Halloween in-dorm dance, movie nights, Homecoming participation, the Thanksgiving dinner, the Christmas party, and finally our dorm retreat. This year was also a year for development. A strange bacteria tha,t had invaded the T.V. lounge was wiped out and replaced with brand new carpet. Furthermore, Ivy was graced with new dorm furniture. But the most important development that occurred was the long lasting friendships they made that are a part of college. While upholding old traditions and creating new ones, Ivy residents developed friendships that would last forever. Todd Hovey

Kreidler Kreidler Hall may have been called noisy, but it was a comfortable noise . It was not rowdy or out of control, and it could hardly be called quiet. In 1988-1989, Kreidler was a dorm full of energy-energy put into dorm dances, the first place float of Homecoming Week, broomball, and practical jokes. This energy also inspired spontaneous retreats, wing functions, and going out to dance on weekends. Dorm council and the Kreidler staff created a relaxed and homey atmosphere that gave Kreidlerites a warm sense of community. Residents would gather around the Kriedler desk for dorm gossip and were known for keeping each other up-to-date on the daytime serial, "Days of Our lives." (If someone missed the soap, a designated time to watch the video recording was usually posted on the R.A. in-out board.) Second semester saw four female residents move out of the dorm study lounge and were given a warm welcome onto one of guy's wings. Games of "phone tag" became a creative study break, as did an abundance of fire alarms, resulting in the banning of incense burning for Kreidler. "The people of Kreidler never cease to amaze me, " said dorm president Tara Shadduck with a grin. "It's just a fun group of people, " added Brenda Schutt, desk supervisor. "Kreidler is home. ' , Kreidler Hall was home-home to spontaneous energy, activity, and people who created a comfortable noise .

Ordal One of a Kind The "Big 0" was transformed in 1988-1989. Being a young dorm , we had adopted a more mature behavior which included the temporary banishment of the ridiculous " 0 " chant. In fact, the unity of the " 0 " had changed its image . We liked to think of it as a nonagon representing the nine individual wings . Of course , individualism can be a drawback , as we found out in our last place finish in Songfest with Cascade. Yet, our uniqueness brought us together at Christmas. The Christmas skits performed showed our ability to ignore our differences

and enjoy each other, even though one wing couldn't (and probably never will) . Basically, we always had good intentions, but sometimes we just had to say, " What the (cough). " For example , our Snow White Homecoming float would have been fine if we hadn 't re nted the PLU truck . A w ord from the experiencedneve r rent a PLU truck . Just like the cafeteria food , something disgusting always shows up, and in the truck 's case, smoke. But oh well. However, sometimes we " got lucky ." We Ventured out and got the Capital to reform our

ancestors' archaic tastes in the reception area. And we earned our brownie points with the church community when we sponsored trick-or-treating for members' children . " Sleaze Night " sponsored by Ron Prior and Tracy Morasch proved to be a highlight to many Sunday nights for the sports watchers. And for the active stress relievers , cooed broomball channeled sadistic energies . Finishing out the year, the Ordal Beach Party was all that it is always made out to be ... but of course .

Pflueger -

The Pflueger Plamily Lower campus-where the action is. Mud football, raucous initiations, athletic facilities, and plenty of social events . Right in the middle of it is Pflueger. With Pflueger's first place finish in the Homecoming competitions, and the many other events like the dorm retreat to Canada, movie nights, and First East's tradtional Viking dinner, the unity of Pflueger's residents was obvious throughout 1988-89. Pflueger's residents were a very diverse group but they could all attest to one fact about their dorm-it's one big family. "Every time I walk into this dorm, I feel like it's home. I feel proud, I fell the warmth, the unity, and the togetherness," said president Becky Breese, "It has to do with the diversity of the people that choose to live here. The size of the dorm doesn't deter us, it makes us work harder to get to know each other." "Why wouldn't we like it? It is a home away from home, " said freshmen Jim and John Wheelan. The dorm council did its best to welcome and make this year's freshmen feel at home. This has been the Pflueger way for several years, as returning residents will ascertain. "Pfl4eger has been like one big family to me, " said four-year resident Barb Benevento, "Everyone cares for

each other; it's a comfortable atmosphere : there's always someone to talk to and to goof off with." Pflueger is a close-knit bunch, and is always in the center of the action. Maureen Brown Jennifer Smith

Stuen A Step in the Right Direction For Stuen, 1988-1989 represented a year of helping the community and getting involved on campus. They served lunch at St. Leo's soup kitchen and held a forum on the homeless peopie in the Tacoma area . They also sponsored discussions on relevant sexual issues in which other dorms were invited to attend. On Halloween they opened their dorm to children from the Parkland area and distributed candy at the front desk. The people in Stuen were very active participants in campus events as well. With Foss they took second place in Homecoming Songfest wilh their rendition of The Three Little Pigs, and won Venture Capital for the third year in a row to buy new lobby furniture and carpet for their study lounge. They also won second place in the Pizza Answer/ Domino's contest by ordering the second largest number of pizzas of any dorm on campus. Within Stuen, there were always things to do and places to go. They held their annual Talent Show, and began what will now be an annual ping-

pong tournament. Almost half the dorm. attended the Seattle/Portland hockey game in early November, and everyone had a blast on the Linfield, Oregon football game retreat. Stuen was a crowded dorm with five' 'Dungeon Duchesses" who lived in the former dorm council room and storage room in the basement. All five opted to stay rather be moved to Harstad in the spring. After all, as the Stuen sweatshirt logo proudly displayed, , 'It's not who you are, it's where you live." Stuen has always had a reputation of being a quiet dorm, but as Robert Vogelsang pointed out, "People in Stuen have more fun than anyone else. They just don't want anybody to know it because they might come in and ruin it." Keri Kellerman agreed with Vogelsang and said, "Stuen is no different than any other dorm. It's just that the residents here know when to stop . The level of maturity and mutual respect is higher because of its size, and, as such, the residents compromise and support each other's privacy ." Kristi Larsen

It is true the apartments are small and run down, but anything beats the dorms by the time you 're a junior."

Off Campus WORth It? Moving from the familiar environment of PLU's dorms to homes off campus; was the change worth the added responsibilities? Most of the students who have made the move say yes. Travis Nelson, a resident in one of PLU's party landmarks, "The Barn", said living off campus was definitely worth paying his own bills because, ' 'You get a better outlook on what everyday life is." Students said living off campus definitely was advantageous because of added appeals such as more privacy, lack of rules and regulations, decreased costs, and an overall sense of freedom. The increased independence gained by living off campus was "part of the transition a student makes in college," said junior Olivia Gerth. Though most off campus students said that though they were glad that they were on campus before they moved off, most would not have moved back to the dorms. "Not unless they paid us a heck of a lot of money," claimed senior Tina Marang. Living off campus was not just one big party, it entailed many added responsibilities like landlord negotiations, electric bills, and cleaning your own toilets. Students living off campus felt that these new responsibilities were beneficial to them, for they were introduced to life in the real world . "You're truly on

your own, it's more of a life experience, "explained senior Jon Ball. He added, "MTV is a definite plus." Maureen Brown Jennifer Smith

ASPLU Success Through Participation "The year spanning 1988-89 for ASPLU has been one of excitement, controversy, mixed with turmoil and crisis, as well as a lot of hard work ," said ASPLU president Amy Jo Mattheis. ASPLU was successful with its variety of ventures due to an increased visibility, a willingness to work on an array of changes, and an obvious approachability which is the key to student government. ASPLU made their ventures well known to the PLU community, increasing the enthusiasm and support which backed up their programming. Fall semester was highlighted with activities such as the annual Lute Laff-Off and a successful Homecoming week. ASPLU played a valuable role in the search for the new provost, allowing for student input and participation in the decision making process. Through individual Senate projects, such as the handicapped. ramp being built and the completion of a survey at C street and 121st, PLU as a whole benefitted from the Senate's hard work . Programming during Interim continued to be received with enthusiasm. Events ranged from Marimba Madness to Super Colossal Twister and wellattended lectures. Spring semester was a busy and active one for ASPLU. Programming began with a successful Tolo Valentine ' s dance and a lecture from motivational speaker Yolanda King. ASPLU dove headfirst into issues such as increasing minority recruitment and diversity in the PLU community, changing the Dead Week policy, and sponsoring sexual awareness days in response to the condom issue.

The Senate was an intrinsic part of ASPLU's visibility and its success in this aspect, as the individual senators reached out to the entire PLU community. The committee chairs were responsible for programming and organizing events which contributed to the overall enthusiasm of ASPLU in the eyes of the student body. The PLU community owed thanks to ASPLU during 1988-89 for not being afraid to delve into issues which may have stirred up controversy. At the very least, a new awareness and a desire for change were obvious results. This could only be deemed as success. Maureen Brown

Controversy at PLU Drifting into Changes 1988-1989 could be called a year of change. Students attempted to voice their opinions and change the things on campus with which they disagreed or felt strongly about. The controversy resulting from the students drifting into change served to make it a year in which life beyond the Lutedome was viewed with open eyes and minds. Some members of ASPLU jumped into controversy during the fall , with a personal boycott of Coke products because of its involvement in South Africa. The students believed that by abstaining from Coke products they could take a stand against apartheid~ Coke has had a long-term contract with Food Service besides being a frequent donator to PLU. The Coke machines, which are located around campus, provide the budget for RHC, which funds dorm events and improvements. This admirable step outside the Lutedome resulted in editorials and letters to the editor in the Mast, weighing the pros and cons of this boycott, and caused an increased awarenes:; of apartheid. The anti-Coke feelings later diminished, but not the awareness. Condom machines in the dorms? What once would have seemed an impossibility on a Christian campus, was introduced to PLU as a legitimate need and want. Hong Hall's dorm council sought to have condom machines installed in their dorm , while at the same time the Health Center pushed the idea . Both argued that the need for the machines was very real. Pregnancy, venereal disease and AIDS were the obstacles sought to be prevented. The

98 Saga

issue was debated by those who favored the machines from the medical viewpoint and those who believed the implicit message behind the machines might encourage permissiveness. The answers may never be clear, but the issue has been raised and may one day be a reality. Controversy plays a major role in student involvement on campus. It helps students to evaluate their personal opinions and to voice their opinions on those items that they feel strongly about. The controversies which were Significant to PLU this past year illustrated the students ' ability to look beyond the sheltered Lutedome and a willingness to welcome and initiate the change.

RHC Stepping Into the Limelight

RHC attempted to increase its visibility throughout the 1988-1989 year by involving itself in controversial issues and by increasing its funding through activities such as the extremely successful PLU watch sale. Residence Hall Council existed for the individual dorm councils as a resource to serve the on-campus communily of PLU, according to RHC chair, Marsh Cochran. RHC had an extremely busy and successful year through organized participation of the individual dorm councils and the executive officers. ThrQugh joint efforts with ASPLU, the Coca-Cola issue was resolved. The students were made aware of the condom issue by efforts

from Hong Hall's dorm council, along with the Health Center. The PLU ski day at Crystal, sponsored by RHC, increased its visibility, as did the RHC elections held in Ihe spring. "The RHC executives and presidents took an active role in the functioning of RHC and made everything in RHC that happened , happen, " said Cochran when reviewing the year . Cochran, along with the other executives, Christina Boyette, Chad Haase, Will Stilwell, Joy Steigerwald, Lisa Egger and advisor Lauralee Hagen, established a direct line of communication with the individual dorm councils which was the key to the successful RHC sponsored activities.

Mooring Mast The Wednesday Night Club Forget the Thursday Night Club. There's another club so exclusive and so challenging that few Lutes know about it. It's called the Wednesday Night Club. The initiation rites are stiff: members must have incredible patience: endurance, flexibility, and function normally for several days without sleep. Oh, there's one more thing. You must be able to write-clearly, concisely, and under pressure, extreme pressure. What kind of person would join a club like this? Masochist is the first word that comes to mind, but most people who work for the Mast are journalism majors . The Mast is open to anyone who wants to write for PLU's newspaper, and the 1988-89 school year brought

102 Saga

English and public relations majors up to the Mast office. A lot of new faces became familiar with the tradtfons of the Mast. One of these traditions was the Wednesday Night Club, the night before the paper was printed. Editors, proofreaders, a few seasoned reporters, and generally crazy people stayed up all night writing copy and pasting it up on pages. Sound easy? Well, there's always Murphy's Law to contend with , and no matter how prepared we were, whatever could go wrong usually did . Computers would go down, copy would disappear, film would dissolve, and reporters would call up at the last possible moment and say, "Story? What story?"

causing the editors acute anxiety and stress. Arne Pihl, spring semester's photo editor would gaze into space and answer these calamities with, "It's okay, I'm the photo editor. " Between the hours of 4 and 6 a.m. on Thursdays, staff members could be found wandering around outside in a stupor, trying to get home and sleep for a few hours before that first class. Daven Rosener, spring semester's news editor, had a permanent case of bloodshot eyes. We were afraid to let him be seen in public for fear an over-zealous priest would try and exorcise him for demon possession. It was hard work, but we had the satisfaction of seeing our

efforts in printed form every Friday. And despite the stressful conditions and short tempers, staff members formed a kind of family . We're not sure what kind , but the bonding was definitely there-somewhere . We also had the satisfaction of knowing that if we could get through this with all our faculties intact, we could make it through just about anything.

Saxifrage Offering a Creative Alternative This year's Saxifrage staff members discovered that being on the production team of PLU's creative arts magazine meant more than just having the coolest T-shirts on campus. In the fall, it meant coming up with clever ads to encourage submissions. This is a difficult task since a) nothing rhymes with Saxifrage and b) no one knows what a saxifrage is anyway . Staffers also had to decide what size the magazine should be, what color of ink should be used, and which side they would take in such earthshaking debates as the Great Rule Controversy. In the spring , things got even more hectic but also more exciting. The annual President's Day Editorial Bash got everyone warmed up for a couple of weeks of heated deliberation. Once all of the publication selections had been made, staff members spent their "spare" hours collecting information for contributor biographies, typesetting, proofing, cmd laying out copy. In the process, they

KCCR An Alternative Pace

Students at PLU are often unaware of what is going on at their student radio station . In 1988-1989, the station was building up with new high standards of professionalism and quality that took the campus by storm. After four years, of hiding in a closet, KCCR 94 .5 FM was on its way to becoming a recognized force on the campus of PLU. KCCR made the shift from a free-form collection of unorganized mess into a formatted station with promise and direction . The format of progressive college rock was on the edge of modern music and offered students a taste of the new and the fresh. KCCR was entirely student run and gave students a chance to try their hands at a variety of positions in the world of radio, from air talent to production to manager. Students could do it all. KCCR 94.5 FM was, as their slogan so aptly stated: " alternative music for an alternative generation ." Daniel McKeown

loel Maier

Under the guidance of senior Michael Maland, KCNS saw a variety of changes in the past year . The student-run station, with a constantly changing staff, expanded its lineup starting with the Monday through Friday ten-minute newscast by including national and international news. For the football fans, every Lute home and away game was also shown on Channel Six. Also included in their programming was "The Left Side of the Couch" and "HP: A Jumbled Mass," both produced by PLU students. Shows that a PLU viewer could also catch were "RockWorld", "The Spud Goodman Show", and new for 1988-1989 were afternoon movies. Technologically, they also grew with the purchase of two Amiga computers. Evidence of this expansion could colorfully be seen with the Bulletin Board. Amongst all these changes, when asked about his experience at KCNS, Maland replied, "It was very exciting and a lot of fun ." Judy Oblanas

Campus Ministry Stepping Out In Faith St. Mark's gospel presents a unique portrait of Jesus as one who moved urgently into the future. For Jesus the future was "one step at a time," but also one step compounded on others, steps which pressed into an important future, steps into life. This year in Campus Ministry and University Congregation, we shared that certainty that life was with us at each step. We also relished a sense of urgency about the life that would come with each new step. Enjoyment and anticipation filled the air during the Bush / Dukakis Presidential election campaign . Larry Rasmussen of Union Theological Seminary pressed us in new ways to see how Jesus used power and made it his gift to us. The mission of the church was pursued wilh new vigor as Louisa, Penda, Kauna and Kuava, our Namibian students, shared their homeland's struggle against apartheid. Satyagraha, our peacemaking club, encouraged us to see peace as a step each of us could take in our lives . In areas ranging from the Salishan neighborhood to Shelton Prison, students ministered to those whose next step into life was not necessarily hopeful. In Mexico and Jamaica, El Salvador and Nicaragua, students stepped out in determination and courage to bring hope to people trapped in poverty and war .

Throughout the year worship animated the campus. Chapel services focused on the "Surprising Serendipity" of God's love and how the saints of the church had taken that love as their marching music into life. The drama of Advent and Lenten worship guided students toward home for much needed breaks at Christmas and Easter. University Cong rega tion continued to offer three different worship formats, including a new Holy Communion folk liturgy composed especially for our late evening hour by free-lance composer Marty Haugen. An able council led by Boe Woodbury stepped out in faith to lead us all. During the 1988-89 school year, students changed in response to the new challenges of academic study, faith and life. Hardly a person remained unmoved by life. Some steps were halting, some bold. Some steps were backwards, some stood still. But time moved on, time known in faith as God's future, a future into which we all moved by steps into life. The University Pastors Susan Briehl Dan Edander Martin Wells 0ppoBite Page: Dan Erlander

Friends, service, leadership, travel, and above all, fun! That's what Circle K means to us. Our year began last August when four members traveled to Orlando, Florida for an internationalconvention . They spent a fun filled week with Mickey Mouse, visited Kennedy Space Center and elected a new international president and board. Each semester we worked hard to deliver fruit baskets to students during dead week, provided campus-wide ice CTeam socials and blood drives. We also took time to visit our local Kiwanis and Key Clubs as well as other Circle K Clubs in the Pacific Northwest. PLU vs. UPS putt-putt golfing was one of our favorite get togethers. In October some of us went to Lake Coeur D'Alene for a leadership conference, while others went to Victoria, B.C in January where the Canadians taught us the "slippery" sport of curling. For St.Patricks Day we all travelled to Salem for our district convention. Kristin Greenwell

Bread for the W orld

Stepping Out to Help the Community

Bread for the World is a national organization dedicated to hunger issues in the U.S. and in the world. With the success of the all-campus fast presented in the fall, Bread for the World opened the eyes of the PLU community to the problem of hunger all around the world and to the ever-rising population of hungry in the U.S . The money that was saved went to several hunger organizations, such as Catholic Relief Services, the National Bread for the World, and shelters in Tacoma. Bread For The World also participated in the Second Supper program where the extra UC food was donated to various shelters and churches. This food was transported by students from PLU. Finally, the group continued their collection of aluninum cans in the dorms for recycling. They used the money for various projects and events to benefit the community of PLU and beyond.

SPURS Beyond Sankta Lucia Sacrifice, Patriotism, Understanding, Resposibility, and Service . These are the words officially used to identify SPURS, a sophomore honorary service organization . But there are some words missing in this description: enthusiasm, friendships, tradition, stress (just a little bit), and a lot of fun! The SPURS at PLU did more than just wem blue and gold uniforms . Ushering at ASPLU events, helping with Orientation, Dads ' , Parents', and Moms' Weekends, visiting rest homes and the YWCA's center for homeless children, and sponsoring children in the Philippines made up some of the " service" activities in which SPURS were involved. Financing the group was done with the annual Homecoming flower sales and deliveries, car washes, and a "Kids' Night Out" for Parkland families. These funds were used for the big event: Sankta

Lucia. This Swedish Christmas Festival, completly organized and performed by the SPURS, (and lots of help from Kris Ringdahl), took months of preparation but was fun to do and was a great bonding experiencei The 1988-89 SPURS were: Tiffany Adams, Julie Bongard, Becky Breese (secretary) , Lori Cruikshank, janet Erickson, Jill Felgenhauer, Danielle Gale, Rebecca Hoslin (vice president), Beth Jarrett, Jenny Johnson, Stacy Johnson (president), Celia Koehler, Karolyn Lobes, Wendy Lee (treasurer), Jeanne Mckay, Melissa O'Neil (editor), Ann Ostlund (historian), Karen Pahlka, Kathy Pheister, Martha Riggers, Lara Rowland, Lisa Sanborn, Angie Schaer, Debbie Sommer, Kristi Stevens, Hannah Stupak (public relations) , Lanie Tesoriero, Heidi Zech, and Julie Zuydhoek, with Karen Atkin and Jamie Wallace as junior advisors.

University Singers 1988-1989

This year the University Chorale was composed of many new voices, which gave it a new dimension and sound. Chorale, under the direction of Ed Harmic, featured "If We Sell You Our Land" based on a text by Chief Sealth and composed by PLU's own Greg Youtz. The group looked forward to each challenging rehearsal (with the exception of sectionals ... ) and anticipated' 'the question of the day." During Spring Break, the choir toured Alaska, the last frontier. Many new friendships were formed over the course of the year , and as a result, they worked well together. Cara Quello

Park Avenue, the duo of vocal jazz groups on campus directed by Phil Mattson, truly came into its own this year . The groups, started by Mattson three years ago, were enthusiastic and hard working. Their hard work seemed to pay off,. too, as shown in their first concert in early October, a mere month after school started. The vocal segment of the Northwest Jazz Festival was held on November 4th and was a musically fulfilling time for all. The culmination of the day was the evening concert where Park Avenue performed and special guest Sunny Wilkinson stole the show with her exciting performance. The groups also planned a spring concert tour around the Northwest. Concert stops included Vancouver, B.C.; Arlington, W A; Ashland, OR; and Albany, OR. The groups also participated in a concert with the University Jazz Ensembles in which the two jazz groups performed together . Park Avenue united to become a true community through solo nights, dinners and other ' family' building activities. They also did many 'exchanges' with local high schools and colleges in which the groups sang for one another in order to gain a better understanding of music. Through their efforts, and those of the University Jazz Ensembles, the students of PLU became more aware of the value of jazz music for enjoyment and entertainment. Cindy Bourquin

The Choir of the West has enjoyed many fine moments throughout its history. However, the choir had one of its finest as they toured England during the summer of 1988. The group enchanted audiences in cathedrals from Canterbury to London and, along the way, learned a little bit about English culture. But to think that the choir slacked off during the rest of the year is wrong. With conductor Richard Sparks off on sabbatical, Gregory Vancil stepped in as conductor. Vancil brought in new perspectives to challenge the choir, and challenge he did. Many of the members this year had been in Choir of the West for two or more years, and this gave Vancil the flexibility to

jump right into material for the choir's Northwest tour in January. Along the way to the tour, the choir participated in a reformation service, civic activities, and the annual Christmas concerts with the University Chorale, singers, and orchestra. After Christmas break, the choir rehearsed five hours a day for their tour of the Northwest. The IO-day tour covered Washington, Idaho , Montana, and Oregon. The concerts were centered around the Centennial celebrations of Washington and Montana with the theme, "Tribute to the '89' s." The music in the middle part of the concert was dated from 1589 all the way throuah 1989. The 1989

premiere, "Alleluja Jubilate," was written especially for the Choir of the West's Northwest tour by Gerald Kechley, a professor of music at the University of Washington . The concerts were well received by audiences throughout the tour. The rest of the choir's Spring semester was comprised of working on "Elijah" which was performed with the University Chorale and Choral Union. Through it all , visiting conductor Gregory Vancil deserves the credit for coming in and doing some exciting and spectacular things with this year's Choir of the West. Chad Haase Vocal Music 115


Instrumental Music Noteworthy Sounds 1988-89 was one of the PLU Symphony Orchestra's finest seasons. The orchestra played up to Dr. Kracht's ambitious programming with greater skill than ever. Highlights of the season included the guest visit of William and Willa Doppman in Mozart and Poulecnc's Double Piano Concertos and the combining of the Choirs and Orchestra to produce Mendelssohn's " Elijah" . Also memorable was the Christmas Concert Tour-most memorable, perhaps, because of its slumbering concertmaster. Svend Ronning

PLU was privileged to have three p rofessionally esteemed chamber ensembles in residence during 1988-1989. The Northwest Wind Quartet, the Washington Brass Quintet, and the Regency String Quartet all performed regularly on PLU's campus and were comprised of university professors and affiliate artists. Under these auspicious circumstances, the possibility for student chamber training and experience was unlimited. Many student chamber ensembles existed in the department which received coaching from resident faculty and gave recitals in the spring. Many participants in the PLU chamber ensemble e xpe rience have gone on to establish professional careers.

PLU's University Jazz Ensemble enjoyed an exceptional year under the instruction of Dan Hailey , interim director for Roger Gard who was on sabbatical. Gailey, a PLU alum, had studied at the University of Northern Colorado as well, and recently came from playing tenor saxophone on a cruise line. In short, he's hot'l-just ask any member of the UJE . The group worked hard all year , and reaped many benefits. They hosted a high school/college jazz festival in November, and in April made a second pilgrimage to the 1989

Jazz festival at UC Berkley, California . The ensemble also made two trips to the PLU recording studio, one in the fall and one in the spring, with the possibility of merging both recordings into a single, marketable album for promotion. All this work by the group seemed to make an impression on the Mast. who referred to Gailey in an article as the Chair of the Music Department (hold my calls, Maxine!) . The jazz program will not soon forget "Dr. Gailey" or the 1988-1989 school year. Mark W. Douglass

Theater Stepping Across the Stage

The 1989-1989 PL U Theater season proved to be one of new faces and new plays. At the dawn of the school year, students welcomed Professor Rebecca Adams to the teaching staff. Later in the year, she directed two successful and overwhelmingly popular plays, Agnes of God and A Doll's House. The beginning of the year also greeted the production of From These Sterile Hil1s, an original play written and directed by Dr. William Parker. Interim provided a chance for students to present the annual Alpha Psi Omega play. This

year, they produced Laundry and Bourbon and Lonestar-two one-act comedies which, though rather controversial, were well received. Later the following spring, the department again produced two one-act comedies, The Actor's Nightmare and Mary Ignatius Explains It All For You. These plays provided the perfect climax for a wonderfully successful season. Jay A. Bates

Mayfest Stepping With the Music For the fifty odd years that the Mayfest Dancers have been in existence, the group has evolved from girls' folk games into a semi-professional co-ed group performing dances all over the world. During the course of the school year, the group performed at various clubs and special events, including Sankta Lucia and Scandinavian Festivals. They also toured many of Puget Sound's grade schools, where the group achieved a certain amount of notoriety. At the end of the year the Mayfest Dancers presented their annual final performance, in which all the hard hours of practice finally came together in one successful and spectacular show. As a fitting climax to the year, the dancers spent the first two weeks of summer on a performing tour. Due to the many hours spent together in practice and extra curricular activities, not to mention two weeks of living together on a crowded bus, the group had a certain amount of bonding, and developed close relationships that will last a lifetime.

Outdoor Recre a tion Stepping Into a Natural Environment For fifteen years the Outdoor Recreation Committee' has been working to give the PLU community the opportunity to explore the outdoors. During the 1988-89 year the commitee began a new commitment to service: Thanks to a grant from President Rieke, two committee members were able to attend the National Conference on Outdoor Recreation. They returned full of ideas and enthusiasm that helped to improve both safety and service. Trips including rafting, crosscountry skiing, snowshoeing, downhill skiing, and hiking gave students and staff the chance to relax and learn new skills. The Pacific Northwesl continued to provide the best of almost all environments. Concern surrounding the danger of Outdoor Rec trips and liability expanded the awareness of the administration of PLU. When the idea of a sky-diving trip was proposed, the administration suddenly realized that Outdoor Rec activities were dangerous and required trained leaders. Overall the year was one of growth and change that will help Outdoor Rec provide more trips of better quality in the future. Thomas Mercer

What made Laser Tag so popular? Could it have been the electrOnic-sounding laser guns and target belts? "For me it was a good way to waste time, a safe way to be violent, and a way to relax," said Joson Hopson, a freshman from Cascade. Another craze in games that swept the PLU campus was electron ic darts. In early

December, the games room installed an electronic dart board and periodically held competitions. These contests proved to be very popular. Broomball was once again seen being played by individual dorms . Putting team against team, slipping and sliding across an ice rink in tennis shoes, chasing a ball with a broom was one of the best ways for some people to release their energy . Once winter gave way to spring, Foss Field became the center for ultimate frisbee, " catch" , soccer, and volleyball.

Intramurals Friendly Competition in a Sporting Context For every young American athlete, participation in a sport, whether competitive or not, is habitual. In high schooL one might have belonged to a team or an outside club. However, many athletes with busy schedules had to drop their sport in order to spend more time preparing for a career. Thus , there is a feeling of emptiness . For this reason , students appreciated the fact that there were intramural sports at PLU during the 1988-89 school year. Beginning in the fall , avid football fans engaged in a sometimes " muddy " game of flag football . Each dorm formed teams in order to challenge another dorm on Foss Field. For the Pflueger women , " even though some games were lost, we looked forward to the next one , " said freshman Dana Steves. Following flag football season, volleyball players were seen filing into Olson gym. Teams ranged from non competitive to competitive levels. " I love volleyball. Since I'm not able to play competitively, intramural volleyball allowed me to get physical instead of going to the fitness center, " said junior Melissa Wolbrecht. Once volleyball finals were finished , three-man and fiveman team basketball and indoor soccer quickly swung into action. Sophomore Joe Hall said, "Since I play varsity baseball, I'm unable to play two sports with the amount of studying I have. With intramural

soccer, I'm able to play my second favorite sport without it being time comsuming ." Whatever the sport one loved to play, intramurals offered the chance for retired athletes to continue participating in the American pasttime-sports.

PLU Transportation Walkin " Ridin " and Thumbin

From BMW's to beaters, PLU had it all when it came to transportation . Being carless in Parkland could be an inconvience, and hazardous to the social life of the average Lute. But, there were alternatives, if you expect to have to wait until next Christmas for some "wheels" . Scooters turned up around and on campus (to the dismay of Campus Safety). The cost of a scooter, considerably less than that of a car, and the good gas mileage were what prompted junior Eric Knutzen to buy one . Kevin Kennedy, another junior, put it simply, " They ' re easy to park." Bicycles , the reliable alternative to the car, gained a renewed interest both as an excerise and a way to get to Stockmarket to pick up a sixpack-Coke, of course. Shelly Huntsman, sophomore, admitted to bicycling 's drawbacks after having been chased by , 'a larger than life, man-eating Cujo" while riding in Parkland. If you had a free hour. .or two, for thirty-five cents, one could ride Tacoma's mass transit Metro service to the mall, with another hour or two to get back. This mode of transportation seemed to be least-favored among PLU students . As freshman Michelle Spanberg

put it, ''I'd rather pick up all the leaves on campus by hand without a blower, than take the bus. As a last resort , PLU students could' 'hoof it" to O'Neils or the Tea Leaf to escape the Lute bubble for a while . From personal experience though, a jog on foot could leave you vulnerable to a drive-by egging, courtesy of Parkland youth. Owning a car on campus was not all it's cracked up to be either. Students literally became a taxi service at times for their less fortunate carless friends, who often picked them for that reason . Campus Safety also issued an average of 12,000 tickets a year at ten dollars a piece or five dollars if paid within the first twenty-four hours for bad parking practices. Tickets were prevalent in the fall as Tacoma police also cracked down on those illegally parked cars around campus. Legal parking spaces within a halfmile radius of campus were often as rare as the U.C. steak . Winning the lottery was the only way to get your own personal parking space in North Lot. Despite these minor' inconvieniences of owning a car at PLU, I'd still trade in my Schwinn for a Datsun anyday. Sue Dahl

Foreign Students / IELI Stepping Across Cultural Boundaries Although not as readily apparent on campus as other groups, the students who participated in the Intensive English Language Institute (lEU) and the many foreign students played an integral part of the PLU community during 1988-1989 . lEU, a cooperative program of the American cultural exchange, ' provided many helpful services to the seventy students who participated in lEU. during the school year . In the fall , the institute began by providing orientation to PLU , counselling, and housing for new students. The program then prepared the students for American-style college study. This was very helpful for individuals who may have just recently finished high school level classes elsewhere, or needed to perfect English skills before starting classes. Students were placed in one of four skill levels, each being equivalent to one semester. The academic demands were high; every student devoted approximately twenty hours a week to their classes. Students also worked in the spelling tutorial , the language reading lab, or the weekly newsletter. Once the students became more acclimated to PLU, there were opportunities such as being a language partner with a PLU student. Ultimately, many students in lEU have opted to transfer to PLU as full-time students.

This year there were students in lEU and PLU from many different countries, such as Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Norway, Oman and Quatar. Foreign students were very active by bringing activities to the campus such as speakers, films, and the intercultural fair. lEU and foreign students have shown to be a significant aspect of PLU-not only to help them become a part of PLU, but also to help the 'typical' student at PLU gain awareness of the diversity of the people around them .

Adult Students Reaching Their Full Potential In the past. Pacific Lutheran University has been mostly a residential campus. Recently though, there has been an increasing number of adult and commuter students. Unlike the students who live on campus and have the luxury of their rooms, these students have had few places to rest between classes, meet friends, and pick up messages. Providing solutions for these problems was the reason for the existence of the ARC (Adult Resource Center) . It gave adult as well as commuter students the opportunity to e~perience the non-academic dimension of college life. ARC became incorporated with MICA (Minority, InternationaL Commuter, and Adult Students) .

Having ARC and MICA merge together made both organizations stronger. They provided peer advising, a message center, social events, leadership training, and brown bag sessions that provided survival tips for the college students who lived off campus. The sessions helped students cope with the stress of managing college and their outside lives. The many services provided by ARC and MICA encouraged adult and commuter students to become more involved with everyday college life. Without their services, college would simply have been another day of academic classes. Andrea Ashley

Team Unity

Ending the season on what Coach Bruce Haroldson called " a season of struggles," the men 's basketball team finished with an 11-16 overall record. Contributing to the year of frustrations were two injuries to key players Byron Pettit and Burke Mulllins late in the season. However, the unity of the team counteracted the upsetting season. As Haroldson said, " This is probably the closest knit team I've ever coached. There was more love and caring for one another than I think I've ever had on a team ." Not only was there a new unity , but two new faces in the assistant coaching department. Tim Murphy and Doug Galloway helped out Haroldson, who was in his sixth year at PLU. Murphy, a 1984 graduate of Colorado State, gained experience as assistant coach at the University of California. Galloway aided Haroldson and also directed the junior varsity team . He was PLU's Man of the Year in Sports for 1987 -1988 and played on the varsity squad for two years as a starting point guard. To compliment the new coaching talent, the team itself

was filled with young returning talent. Securing the back court was junior Burke Mullins, who pushed his point record over the 1,000 mark . Commenting on Mullins, Haroldson said, "Burke has such a natural feel for the game , " Also watched was junior Steve Maxwell at the off-guard spot. The dominant center, sophomore Greg Schellenburg, returned as well as Eri c Viuhkola and Jeff Thompson. Dan Brown, Kraig Carpenter, and Lance Davenport all battled for the forward position. The height of the season was most likely the game against NCAA Division I Kansas . As Coach Haroldson summed up, "This is our Olympics" .It has to be the pinnacle of the athletic careers for every one of the players." Unfortunately, Kansas played up to their standards and defeated the Lute cagers 112-61. Despite the loss, Haroldson commented that he "felt very strong about the constant effort" and " the intensity level was outstanding." Despite the season's ups and downs, Haroldson was "pleased how we progressed as a team" and the team's overall determination . Judy Oblanas

Returning strength was the key to the 1988-89 women's basketball season. Their goal was to improve on last season's 11-13 record, which they did, ending the season 18-8. Although most of the players were familiar faces, there was a new addition to the teamKaren Hostetter as assistant coach. With Hostetter's previous coaching experience and background, Kluge felt that "she should fit right in." As for the players, the standouts were forwards Kelly Larson, who broke PLU's point scoring record with 1,465 baskets, and Melanie Bakala, the team 's second leading scorer. Strong sophomores who returned at post were Kristin Dahl. known for her jumping ability, and Gail Ingram who was a dominant inside scorer. Ann Marie Haroldson, who sat out last season with a foot injury, was back and Kluge felt she was valuable to the team, "She makes good decisions and understands the game well." Strengthening the back court were players Gina Grass, Missy Yungen, Jennifer Magner, and Diana Tavener. Defrosting after Christmas break, the Lady Lutes headed south to attend the Holiday Basketball Classic at the University of California at San Diego . They finished second to the nationally-ranked team from St. Ambrose. The experience of playing together was a contributing factor in the success of the team. Last year they were a young, raw team, but during this year's season, they could predict each others moves and felt relaxed. They played like a seasoned team . This court unity was summed up during the pregame talk of the first game . The Lutes looked at this game as a continuation from last seasonit wasn't the first game, but the twenty-fifth game. This attitude, combined with their previous knowledge , led them to a winning season. Judy Oblanas

Cheerstaff A Winning Combination

Hard work and enthusiasm was the winning combination that the cheerstaff used to encourage crowd participation and spirit. The hard working members of the cheerstaff put even more time and effort into their responsibilities than the grateful crowd realized . Fall cheerstaff member Julie Stenersen explained that not only did they give up their Saturdays each week, but had practices everyday, made posters each week that took a minimum of two hours to do, worked with Frosty on public relations projects, worked on the Lister elementary school program with the football players every Friday morning, and spent lots of time doing individual jobs with all the sports teams.

142 Saga

Cheerstaff members found it difficult to pinpoint one aspect of the year as a highlight. The road trips, the involvement, the close knit group-all were important. The cheerstaff members' creativity and hard work made the campus excited about supporting the athletic teams. Cheerstaff member Garret Brown summed up the feelings of the whole group when he said being on cheerstaff was rewarding because "you get to cheer for the team, but you feel as if you're a part of it, and you try to help the crowd feel as if they're a part of it too. It makes you feel good if you can do that." Congratulations guys, you did just that. Maureen Brown Jennifer Smith

Skiing Ski All Day, Rage All Night How does it sound to do nothing all day, but ski? No worries, no homework, just skiing and socializing. Well, 'that's what twelve Pacific Lutheran downhill ski bums did during Interim. They left on Monday for the mountain and stayed at condos at White Pass. Training took place until Thursday from 8:30 or 9:00 a.m. until about 3:00 or 3:30 in the afternoon. Meets took place on the weekends. They raced the slalom and the giant slalom against various teams such as Seattle University, University of Washington, UPS, University of British Columbia, and SPU. They returned to PLU for at least one night a week to do their laundry, sleep, and pack for the following week. Competitively, the team

missed Conference by only one poini. Coach Amy Strom, however, went to Conference individually and Mad Bruun went to Conference and Regionals. Socially, the Vancouver meet was the best. The team took a tram to the top of the mountain which overlooked the city. At the top they had a banquet and a dance. Other favorite times were free ski times, especially in two feet of powder. But. it wasn't all fun, it was a lot of hard work too. Dry land training began the third week of school. The workouts included hills, intervals, circuits, weights, and long distance running. Only the few survived: five women and twelve men compared to the huge number at the interest meeting. Stephanie Bullard

Swimming A Splashing Success

loel Maier

Lead by a strong group of returning national competitors, the 1988 - 1989 men's and women's swim teams began the year with a great deal of . optimism . This optimism brought them first to the PLU Invitational, "the highlight of the Lute's fall season" according to co-captain Andy Flood. During the event, junior James Elwyn won three freestyle races, while teammate Mark LeMaster took first place in the other three freestyles. These fine performances helped lead the men's team to a respectable second place finish. On the women's side, Kersten Larson claimed top honors in the 100 fly, and the 800 freestyle relay team of Tareena Joubert, Kathy Thompson, Karen Hanson, and Larson swam a 7:22.15 to take first place. With tough competition from OSU and Central, the Lady Lutes finished third. Coach Jim Johnson saw this meet as "the culmination of the fall season, " and was pleased with the results. After successful Interim victories over Lewis and Clark, Whitworth, Linfield, and Evergreen State, the Lute swimmers went on to keep the conference gold in PLU's trophy case for another year as both the men and women defended their NCIC conference titles. Among. the standouts for the women's team was Joubert, who took first in the 100 breaststroke, breaking the meet record with a time of 1:10.56. Her efforts on the 800 freestyle ..elay team also saw the old mget record fall . For the men, Elw In repeated his Invitational

accomplishments, while John Fairbairn, Jeff Larson, and LeMaster also took home first place finishes. At the Bi-District clash, PLU's swim teams again made strong showings. The women took second while the men placed third. Lute swimmers had 37 season-best swims and 17 lifetime bests during the meet. This contest prepared the teams for the NAIA Nationals, which saw seven women and six men travel to the championships in Wisconsin . The women's team kept their top-five streak at nationals intact with a third place finish and the men bettered last year's 13th place showing, finishing 1!tho "We had some phenomenal swims, some times we'd only dreamed about," said Coach Johnson. Some of these times included the record-breaking times of Mark LeMaster. In four separate 100 meter freestyle swims, his times were 47 .08, 47.01, 46.96, and 46.87. As Coach Johnson proudly proclaimed, "He had an unbelievable weekend." The women also broke PLU records at nationals . Hanson swam a I :09.34 in the 500 freestyle and a 53.31 in the 100 freestyle. Joubert clocked a 1:08.51 in the 100 breaststroke, and was a member of the record-breaking 400 medley and 400 freestyle relay teams. Overall, the Lute swimmers succeeded in becoming a wellseasoned championship team. With a solid group of returning swimmers, the men's and women's swim teams should continue in !heir winning ways .

In addition to the team accomplishments, individual wrestlers also did well. Three Lute mat man qualified for

Nationals-Steve Mead in the 118 class, John Godinho in the 134 class, and Bob Fruend in the 150 class. Mead and Godinho will both be returning next year, adding strength to next year's squad.

Interim Opportunities for Change Students were given many opportunities for growth and academic achievement with the courses offered on campus and programs for study abroad during the 1989 month of Interim . Courses ranged from Calligraphy to the Vietnam War and American Society, each offering extensive study of specific subjects which aimed to draw students away from their majors, allowing them to experience more knowledge in different fields. Many students opted for the off-campus Interim programs, earning credits while venturing to places like the Carribean, New York, Europe, and South America . Accompanied by professors from PLU, these students were able to live amongst new cultures and experience all the wonders each had to offer.

Another option for Interim was that of independent study. Students could choose from an array of ways to earn their credits, using their own imagination and discretion. Some chose to work on missions for the month, while others traveled to places like Baja or Hawaii to research fields of interest which had always fascinated them. The benefits of students' travels were highlighted in Mast stories and interest workshops held by the students. Whether studying abroad or hanging around the Lutedome, students welcomed the month of change. Interim 1989 was a unique opportunity to delve into new areas of interest. Maureen Brown

Presidents Somebody Has To Be In Charge

loel Maier

In 1988-89, President Rieke and his "four fab V.P .'s" were busy making changes that would help the university achieve its mission-Educating for Service. Rieke spent much of his time thinking about the direction he would like the university to take in the future . He said he would like to keep the university's population growi':lg at the rate of one percent a year, and would like to see PLU's reputation spread beyond the Northwest. Rieke met once a week with his vice presidents to keep abreast of the day-to-day happenings in the university. He took the time to listen to student concerns, curriculum changes, and to answer letters from worried parents. Vice President of Finance and Operations Donald Sturgill coordinated a $47.8 million budget that was approved by the Board of Regents at their Spring meeting. He also travelled to Japan with the Lute baseball team in early April. Sturgill supervised the planned remodeling of Hinderlie Hall, and helped design the reconstruction of Xavier Hall. Erv Severtson, Vice President of Student Life , oversaw mcmy changes in student activities this year. These included moving the ASPLU offices from the third

floor of the UC to the first floor, and redesigning the campus publication offices. Severtson also helped select members of "Who's Who Among American College Students" and hosted the annual "Who ' s Who" luncheon at the Board of Regents meeting in April. The addition of the new Scandinavian Center was Vice President of Development Luther Bekemeier's big project this year. The center, which was dedicated in May, provided the school with a better appreciation of our Scandinavian heritage. Bekemeier was also busy raising funds for the Centennial Celebration and increasing the school's endowment fund. Vice Presidenf of Church Relations Harvey Neufeld met with members from the 650 Lutheran synods that support PLU to keep them informed about university happenings. Neufeld continued to preach on KPLU every Sunday morning , and also took part in a peace forum that took place at St. Olaf University in Minnesota. Each member of the president 's staff felt that the year was successful in many ways. They accomplished most of the tasks they were assigned, and looked forward to their next mission: Educating for Service: Century II. Melinda Powelson

Board of Regents Development and Team Building Most students are unaware of the role of the Board of Regents until the notice for the tuition increase is announced. However, the Board of Regents is an important part of PLU, for it is the governing body of the university. The Board of Regents met three times during the year. In the spring, they approved the $47.8 million budget for 1989-90 and gave faculty promotions. In addition to discussing budgetary matters, the board unanimously approved the honorary degree of Doctor of Divinity to its chairman, Bishop David Wold. Wold had been a member of the board since 1972, and President Rieke said, "This recognition is long overdue." The board also hosted a luncheon honoring the PLU representatives of "Who's Who Among American College Students.' , By establishing policies for the university and creating the school's budget, the Board of Regents, along with adminstrators and student representatives, charted the future of PLU.

School of Education Elementary Steps In 1988-89, the School of Educati.o n was able to attract high quality students, including two Fulbright Scholarship winners Grace Running and Jenae Boyd; the PLU Mathematics Endowment Scholarship winner Tracey Reynolds; and three students fellows, Sonia Bringhurst, Diane Termstad, and Sean Neely. Students in the School of Education were required to take classes be sides the GUR block-The Methods Block. This block consisted of general methods , and methods in reading, language arts, science, social studies , and math. Indi viduals taking these methods courses had many distinguishable characteristics that could easily be detected by a careful observer. They spent an inordinate amount of time coloring, cutting, and glueing . They were often sighted pulling weeds along the jogging path. The band-aids on their fingers

spoke of carving wood with razor blades, and the bruises on their shoulders came from their book bags that had been stretched to the limit. Methods students also had a jargon all their own , and these words and names were frequently used in a typical 路 conversation between two or more of them: MARN Index , whole language, manipulative, Bloom's taxonomy, Glasser, Driekers, ITIP, and 4MAT . There were more subtle things to look for as well, such as the distinct odor of mice that surrounded them, the tune they were constantly singing that distinctly sounded like "Mary Had a Little Lamb ," and that look of ''I've been with 25 firstgraders all morning longleave me alone." When the semester was over and they were asked how it went, they most likely replied, "I made itl" Lise Hannon Karen Atkin

Humanities A New Breed of Hero PLU has long boasted of the liberal arts oriented education which it provides to its students. An important part of that education is achieved within the Division of the Humanities. Taking courses in Religion, Philosophy, Languages, and English gave students at PLU a feeling that they had accomplished something and were ready to attack the world. As was once said, "though thou art able to tear the scalp off an elephant, if thou art deficient in the humanities, thou art no hero." PLU graduates were not deficient in the humanities, and if they were not able to scalp elephants, then at least they were able to conquer their own worlds. The Division of the Humanities provided us with this ability through a variety of means. Lectures were one means and this academic year saw, among many others, Cyril Birch from the University of California at Berkeley present a talk on "Chinese literature and Politics." Films were another method of nurturing our heroism and this year many were shown, including the Norwegian film Betrayal.

She was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize for her work on Louisiana cane-workers, while her film, The Klan: A Legacy of Hatred, was nominated for an Academy Award .

One example was the book written by religion professor Paul Ingram, The Modern Buddhist-Christian Dialogue . The book was intended to address troubling questions which Ingram not only himself had found concern, but also had many of his students. The Division of Humanities worked hard to provide students with the background needed to meet life.

School of Nursing Preparing For a Healthy Career

loel Maier

The school year of 1988-1989 was one of activity, change, and involvement for the School of Nursing. Nursing at PLU combines liberal arts classes, nursing classes, laboratory, and clinical experiences . Students must complete at least one year of prerequisites in biology, chemistry, sociology, and psychology before beginning those classes specific to nursing. During any given day, a PLU nursing student could be found at an early morning clinical at a local hospital, in a Pathophysiology or Nursing Research class, making a home visit to a mother with a newborn baby, assistting with the care of an elderly nursing home patient, or practicing the administration of intravenous medication in the nursing lab. These experiences helped prepare future registered nurses for leadership and competency in their profession . Nursing students were actively involved in professional organizations during the year. Several PLU students served on the board of directors of the State of Washington Associated Nursing Students (SWANS), which was proud to have Delta Iota Chi, PLU's SWANS chapter, as its largest constituency in the state. Delia Iota Chi hosted the annual SW ANS convention, welcoming nursing students from across the state and speakers from across the country to PLU.

Other Delta Iota Chi projects included welcoming new students into the program, and organizing and participating in community projects, such as "baby rocking" at the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Tacoma General Hospital. The Delta Iota Chi officers once again represented PLU at the annual National Student Nurses' Association Convention in Cincinnati, Ohio. In other activities, students attended Nurse Lobby Day at the state capitol. Students learned about health care issues and received information regarding lobbying for or against proposed law changes. Professors in the School of Nursing continued to be active in professional organizations, community service, and research projects . Professors were consistently supportive of the students' activities and organizations. Faculty and students were happy to welcome a new dean to the School of Nursing, Dr. Dorothy Kellmer .

School of Physical Education Creating a Sound Mind and Body To many, " Life" is movement. During 1988-1989, PLU was a campus on the move. On courts, tracks, trails and alleys .. .in pools, sweats, fields and studios, PLU students, faculty and staff played, swam, exercised, recreated , and competed on their way to developing a " sound mind in a sound body. " The motivation for this involvement may have been to prepare for a professional career in teaching, coaching , athletic training, exercise science, recreation, or simply the desire to pursue Gctivity as an avocation. Whatever the motifaction, the PLU community was an active one. During anyone semester, approximately 65% of all students enrolled in one of 24 different "lifetime" sports . Intramural programs involved about 70% of our student body and over 500 students competed in 22 varsity sports teams. Countless others availed themselves of liberal recreation hours. Special attention in 1988-89 was directed to the Exercise Science program. Dr. Tony Evans joined the School of Physical Education as Director of Exercise Science and Fitness. This emphasis enhanced opportunities for students to prepare for enlarging vocational placements in exercise, health, cmd fitness. To assist in developing professional programs, the School gained approval to offer three new degree programs: a B.A. in Physical Education, a B.S. in Physical Education, and a B.A. in Recreation.

Social Sciences Heading Toward a Social Life What do youth gangs, historic preservation, birth rates, Presidential elections, and interest rates have in common? Answer: the social sciences. These social issues illustrate the breadth and variety of subjects studied in the social sciences. How people in a society organize themselves, how they interact, and how they live together-is anything more fascinating?-form the core of social sciences. The Division of Social Sciences includes the Departments of Anthropology, Economics, History, Political Science, Psychology, Sociology, and Social Work . Related programs are Legal Studies and Global Studies. In 1988-89, the Division also supported an informal Women's Studies program. Rather than preparing for a specific job or career, students of the social sciences emphasized critical thinking, problem solving, and reinforced a respect for the social, ethnic, and cultural diversity in the world. Students were encouraged to develop the ability to be competent in a wide range of job categories and to be able to easily adapt to a rapidly changing environment. Faculty

members understood that the're was not a simple correlation between education and jobs, but that skills developed in a liberal arts education may be applied anywhere. During Interim, the Division's Center for Social Research and Public Policy sponsored a one-day symposium, "Women and Economic Development." Nearly one hundred students, faculty, staff, and community members participated. Students and faculty of the Division were also involved in the Presidential Forum on gender. Dr. Jane Reisman, sociology, and sociology majors Kari Lerum and Mamie Graham presented their research on gender and learning entitled "You've Come a Long Way, Baby, So Why Study Gender in College?" Each department in the social sciences had an active student club that sponsored activities or speakers. The Model United Nations was an opportunity for social sciences students to practice a real world situation. Delegates were sent to the United Nations of the Far West, a student-operated simulation of the United Nations . Janice Barker

Graduate Students Advancing By Degrees

For most undergraduates at PLU, getting an advanced degree seems like a distant dream , almost unthinkable after that last final. Graduate studies were not so far away in 1988-1989; in fact, they were right next door to a large number of classrooms. Graduate students were among the many wanderers in Red Square. The Office of Graduate Studies at PLU coordinates and integrates the work of the schools and departments that provide graduate level instruction. Its general purpose is to further the basic objectives of the university by providing graduate level academic and professional degree programs. The six different programs offered during the 1988-89 school year were'Master of Arts in Business Administration, Education, Computer Science, Computer Applications, Music, and Social Sciences.

Stress Management How to Step Back and Relax Stress is a state of tension and pressure, a common affliction here in the Lutedome. We all know it; in one day you might have two tests you haven't studied for, one paper due, you have to work the day before and you have three mandatory meetings to attend. AARRGGHH! What do students at PLU do to martage these times of stress? Do we pull out all our hair and bite off all our fingernails and pray that it all works out? Well, there may be a few bald, fingernail-less people out there, but on the whole, Lutes seem to understand stress management. Cliff Rowe, a Communication Arts professor here at PLU who is also a journalist, is a master of stress management. With the constant deadlines, and the feeling of never having one's work completed, Rowe said there is no question that journalism is one of the most stressful lines of work around. But Rowe feels he has not let the high stress get the best of him . ") worry only about the things I can actually do something about and keep my head above water." During 1988-1989, stress was what we made of it. We could have worried frantically about everything we needed to do, or

we could have outlined what we had to do and learned time efficiency. Lutes had a wide array of ways they relaxed and escaped from stress. Physical activity, blowing off steam on the weekends, meditating, or simply relaxing with a trashy novel were just some of the ways PLU students relieved. stress. Lisa Egger, a junior who worked 23 hours weekly for Campus Safety, while taking on the responsibility of RHC secretary along with her normal load of classes, found that in order to overcome her highstress lifestyle she needed to take time out for herself , whether it meant partying with her friends or having coffee with the newspaper in the morning. Stress management, according to Egger, was "the ability to overcome your inabilities." Whenever you feel like pulling out your hair or biting off all your fingernails, step back and do something for yourself. Being able to relax and doing something fun was the key to stress management here in the Lutedome. Relaxation and having fun gave Lutes the ability to tackle all those high stress situations.

Baseball Stepping Into Leadership With a dominating pitching staff and strong leadership from the three team captains, senior pitcher Sterling Stock, senior outfielder Tim Engman, and junior second baseman John Golden, the 1989 baseball team dominated the diamond and demonstrated their united front of capable players. The season brough twenty-four players into the limelight. seventeen who were returning players. Although Coach Larry Marshall was quick to say that all of the Lute baseball players were assets., he highlighted the pitching to be one of their greatest. " They dominated the game from their prospective view on the mound," Coach Marshall said of the four senior pitchers, Brian Sherrer, Sterling Stock, Travis Nelson, and Shawn Butler. Coach Marshall also pointed out senior Tim Engman as one of the greatest assets in the outfield, and Brad Jaramillo as one of the Lutes strongest offensive players. After a Spring Break trip to Japan , where Lute baseball met up wi~ an Oriental discipline on the diamond , the baseball team continued the season with enthusiasm and unity . The 1989 season ended with a record of 9-19, and the Lutes looked to the 1990 season with optimism and open minds. Winning the award for most inspirational for the 1989 season was Daren Kawakami, and Most Valuable Player went to Tom Benson and Sterling Stock. Stock also took home the Coaches ' Cup award for the season. John Golden, Tyler Clements, and Eric Russell were chosen captains for the 1990 baseball season . Maureen Brown Jennifer Smith 188 Saga

Softball Meeting the Challenge The 1989 women's softball team was confronted. with a difficult act to follow. The Lutes were challenged to top the national championship season and 36-9 record of 1988, and the pressure was not relieved any when the Lutes were the unanimous number one pick in the NAJA pre-season poll. "J have no idea if this team is as good as last year's. We have plenty of talent, but we're very young. Our success depends on how fast our players mature from the high school to the college level, " said Coach Ralph Weekly. Six freshmen with all-state high school credentials complimented the seven varstiy returnees. "Our hitting will eventually be a strength. We've always been a good hitting team, and this is as much raw talent as we've ever had," commented Weekly. Led by pitcher Holly Alonzo, a senior who wen t 14 -3 in 1988, the Lutes were ready to start again on the long road to the NAJA playoffs. The defending champs started the season with a six-game swing in Hawaii. The Lutes lost twice to Hilo and once to Hawaii-Pacific, before taking two from BYU-Hawaii. They then

came home and proceeded to gain victories over lo'cal teams such as Linfield, Lewis and Clark, and cross-town rival UPS. These victories led them to the national championships. After winning their first game against Bloomfield, New Jersey 3-1, they lost the next two: 3-0 to Kearney State in Nebraska and 6-3 to St. Mary's from San Antonio, Texas. The season ended with a total record of 33 wins and 13 losses. Although the womens softball team did not win the national title this year, they still had a successful season and could be proud of their accomplishments. Lisa Shannon

Crew A Special Breed

4:45 a.m ... . the peaceful morning silence is replaced by the obnoxious BUZZ of an alarm clock, bringing the rowers' deep sleep to an abrupt end . So begins a day in the life of the PLU rowers. After in!li.cting considerable damage to the " off " button of the alarm clock , the rowers drag their unwilling bodies out of bed . With minds set on autopilot, they throw on five layers of warm clothing, and a weather-jacket in case of rain (not an uncommon phenomenon in our little corner of the Northwest) . Grabbing a snack for substenance , they hustle out of their dorms and head for Olson Auditorium to meet the PLU vans, the usual transportation to American Lake. The team gathers for a few quick instructions from the coach. Glancing around the group , the rowers can 't help gri nning at each other--the sleep eyes , tousled hair, and unkempt attire of those who sacrifice at least an extra three hours of sleep to pursue all that goes into making winning boats.

Upon arrival at the boathouse , the rowers quickly move their boats to the water , tie in, and shove off. After the warm-up the workout begins . The eariler sleepy eyes are now filled with intensity and concentration as the rowers prepare to practice a 2000 meter race piece . All of the boats line up at the start. The coach gives the starting c ommands, " Attention .. .Etes-vous pret .. . P ARTEZ! " The coxwains scream commands as the rowers push to give 110 percent. Precision , synchronicity, and power are all incorporated into each stroke. With muscles burning and lungs straining f o r more oxygen , the rowers drive themselves to the outer limits of endurance and strength, all the way through the sprint until the coxwain calls, "Way enough I " Bodies collapse, exhausted , onto the feet of the rower behind. But not for long . After a few minutes of recovery, the rowers sit ready for the next piece . Anyone unfamiliar with the sport of rowing may question the mental stability of

one who w ould rise at the ungodly h our of

5 a.m. and put themselves through such a routine , and actually enjoy it. What they must understand is that rowing is addictive, although different people do it for different reasons . For some i t's the competition , for others the comraderie , and there are probably tho se who do it because it feels so good when y ou stop. Regardless o f the reasons, rowers are definitely a special breed. Lute rowers put in at least 15 h ours a week in practice time , and most rowers take even m o re time out of their day to supplement the on -the-water practices with weight-lifting, running, and erging . A sport that requires so much time also requires l ots of organizat ion on the part of the individual team members . Many rowers juggle crew not only with classes, but also with w ork and other extracurricular activities . It may be quite a load to handle , but crew people just do it. The rower is the epitome of dedication, perserverance , and sacrifice . Through all the ob stacles -- weather, equipment damage , whatever--the rower 's m o tto is "Deal with it, it builds character. " And the high experienced after w inning a race , or even having a good row makes everything , even the 5 a .m . practices, well w orth it.

This year's mens golf team was marked with inconsistancy. Despite being directed by an experienced group of eight seniors and only two underclassmen, Coach Gene Lundgaard's team struggled through the year with a team that had the potential to be one of the top teams in recent PLU history . Having a group of four very solid golfers in the top spots with the remaining six also having strong ability enabled the team to recapture the Northwest Small College Classic from Willamette. PLU won by nearly doubling the point total of the nearest competitor Pacific in a complex year-long point system. The team was made up of seniors Dan Cheek, Paul Cheek, Kevin Eliason, Brien Flannigan, . Dale Haarr, Tim Kaurfmann, Scott McCollum, Grant Wallin, sophomore Paul Furth and freshman Matt Walden. They went to the Conference Championships at Tokatte in Oregon in May before coming home to play in the District Championships at Allenmore in Tacoma for the rights to represent the District at the National Tournament in Saginau, Michigan. Talking about this year 's squad, Coach Lundgaard said he was "moderately happy" with the season despite team members not playing up to their full potential. "We achieved one of our goals by winning the Classic Trophy back," Lundgaard said. He also admitted that "our lack of consistancy was understandable in that our performance was as good as could have been expected when you consider the pressures our seniors were under due to all that surrounds graduating."

Maintaining the Tradition "We've established a tradition and we've been consistent in maintaining that tradition," said men's tennis coach Mike Benson. PLU's 1989 men's tennis team was a group of quality players who worked together to develop a consistent attitude toward their game and toward the unity of the group. After stariing off the season on a good note with a sunny Spring Break trip to Florida, the men's tennis team played consistently well throughout the season . The six top positions were filled by Jonathan Schultz, Gary Gillis, David Thompson, Fred Bailey, Beri Adams, and Ken Steenis. Backing up these leaders were Tad Kendall, Lance Berky, Bryan Benson, Jamie Dieveney, Bari Tilly, and Scott Whipps. "PLU attracts quality people. some of which

are quality tennis players, ,. said Coach Benson. The men's tennis season ended with a record of thirieen wins and thirieen losses . After winning the conference championship and the district tournament. the team travelled to Kansas City, Missouri to play at Nationals. The women's tennis team established a positive team atmosphere, making it easy to work hard, have fun, and focus on playing well . According to women's coach Rusty Carlson, "It helps to have some of the best players around, as well. " A strong team was one of the biggest assets that women's team had in its favor . The top six players were DeeAnn Eldred, Becky Bryden, Bridget Rundle, Melinda Wilson, Kathy Graves, and Kristy Jerke . Forming a

strong backup group were Linda Garbino, Marcy Maydole, Beth Nierman, Nicole Benedict, and Katie Carlisle . Team unity and enthusiasm prevailed for a successful season of good tennis playing. Finishing with a record of 10-13 and a first place finish in the NCIC conference tournament, nothing but positive feedback availed . The women's team placed second in Districts with a first place finish in singles by DeeAnn Eldred . As district singles champ, Eldred travelled with Coach Carlson and the men's te~m to Kansas City for Nationals. The Lady Lutes played up to their ability and never let enthusiasm slide.

Anna Ovali and Sharon Wilson as well as a host of middle and long distance lady tracksters also scored well for the Lutes. Kelly Edgerton, Joanne Maris, Julie Clifton, Gwen Hundley, and Tandy Olive qualified for nationals in their respective distance events. On the men's side, David Mays and Darrin Hatcher both dropped below the existing Lute 10,000 meter record and led a young Lute distance squad into the championship meets.

During 1988 -1989, the special guests that came to PLU were politically diverse. ASPLU Lecture Series Committee Chair Heidi Bray sa id , " Each of the speakers was highly political in different ways. They addressed pertinent issues [outside of and] on campus. Former Presidential Ccmdidate john Anderson started this year ' s series of prominent lectures . Anderson , who ran under the independent ticket in 1984, discussed the election process and the路 importance of voting . john StockwelL an ex-CIA agent. spoke about the ins and outs of the CIA and covert action. Students were eager to hear his opinions relating to the recent IranContra scandal. Another timely speaker was Yolanda King , daughter of the late Martin Luther King, Ir. She urged everyone to move away from apathy and continue the search for her father's dream . Purple bushels of balloons advertised the coming to

campus of Cesar Chavez of the United Farm Workers. Famous for his grape boycott, Chavez raised issues involving tlie politics of agriculture. Mubarak Awad, the leader of the Non -Violent Palestinian Movement, who is presently in exile from Palestine, explained the philosophies of his organization and the reasons for his exile. Father Lawrence jenco , one of the three hostages in Lebannon who were exchanged for arms, discussed the need for worldly justice and inner peace . Guest speakers were also sponsored by other campus organizations, offering new perspectives and knowledge . Amblin Entertainment coproducers Kathleen Kennedy and Frank Marshall, famous for such films as Raiders of the Lost Ark and Who Framed Roger Rabbit? shared anecdotes from the movie producing industry. On a more scholastic note, Dr. Ira Sharkansky, professor of political science at Hebrew

University of jerusalem, spoke on " The Internal Problem of Israel. " Fulbright Distinguished Award Winner Dr. Glenda Riley spoke at the annual Shnackenberg Memorial Lecture on "Black and White: Women on the American Frontier."

" Feminist author Dale Spender discussed the importance of studying women's literature in her lecture " The Writing Or The Sex: Why You Don't Have To Read Women's Writing to Know It's Good. " Even though one wouldn't usually think of listening to another lecture after a day of classes, the speeches by this year's special guests proved to be an interesting and thought provoking addition to the regular academia.

" Hi , I'm a graduate and I didn 't get a yearbook." This question haunted the air of the Saga office for much of the year. Due to an almost too successful distribution of 1988 yearbooks on campus . we quickly exhausted our supply, and many graduates were left without annuals. Despite the many threats from irate graduates, we managed to appease most of them. The production of this year's Saga was not without its rough spots. We changed publishers , forcing us to learn the new ' techniques. We didn't have a ladder until midway through first semester; Bob kept asking, " What do you want us to take pictures of?" Toan's favorite line was: " How's copy coming?" By January, she had all the sta ff's phon e numbers memorized, except Val's . Andrea never did get a key to the office. Lara stayed away from most of the production itself-smart girl. Every time Steve stepped into the office, he had two or three messages of " Where' s my yearbook?" Val had the biggest challenge of a ll: keeping the stoff wo rking, and keep them working togeth er. Despite all the hard work that goes into making a yearbook, the finished product makes all the hea daches and frustrr' ..路n worthwhile. Knowing h.':'. you have create d a book that represents a year in the life of PLU is an accomplishment we can be proud of.
