P.O. BOX 398, BEAVER DAM, WI. 53916

Wayland's crest originated when the school was established in 1855. The crest symbolizes Wayland and its characterknowledge motto. The lantern symbolizes the search for knowledge and character; the feather represents the old time feather pens; the books represent learning. In 1983, the traditional circle around the crest was changed to a shield shape. Yet, whatever changes may occur in the crest's appearance, the importance will remain the same to Wayland and its population.

1985


Editor's note This year Wayland saw a return to tradition. As editors of the 1984-85 Pillars. we have tried to reflect this trend by producing a more traditional yearbook. while still paying attention to the present. The staff and our advisor. Ms. Walter, has included photographs from both Wayland's past and present. We hope you will enjoy a look back not only at this year but also at the many past years. in Wayland's history. Your Editors. Noraida Pagtalunan Morgan O'Regan

A History Of Wayland Wayland Academy was established as Wayland University on July 4. 1855. It was established by a group of Wisconsin Baptists headed by Reverend D.D. Reed. Their aim was for Wayland to be "the Brown University of the Midwest." Wayland was named in honor of the President of Brown University. Dr. Francis Wayland. Wayland University opened on September 16, 1855 with Benjamin Newell as the principal. It had a student body of forty two, ranging in age from fourteen to forty.

Times Have Changed In 1970, Ella Dye served as a senior girls dormitory, and Mrs. Dohmann was the head resident. Dormitory life at this time, differed significantly from dormitory life today. The dormitories were much stricter. No smoking was allowed anywhere in

Arrivals And Registration

Time Plays Tricks The day was cool and merciless, filled with a sort of subdued confusion. Wind slid through trees and rooftops as if it wished not to be noticed. It all seemed like a dream; I was almost positive the last final exam of the 198384 school year was just last week and summer had never really happened. But as we pulled up to the back campus I realized this was not an everyday summer nightmare, I was really back. The first thing I did was register, when I received reassurence from my mentor. Finally, the cold sweat lifted from my forehead. Next I had to bring my things into the dorm. As I walked through campus I wondered if I had ever left, and if all my old friends would be at the dorm. As I approached the dorm I heard many familiar voices. Immediately I felt the sun break through the dark clouds and shine down on me with warm penetrating rays. It was then I realized the year had definite possibilities.

Academics Math And Science "Very solid, second to none," remarked math teacher Mr. Dave Kasper. Experience is one of the strongest aspects of the math department. Many of the math teachers have been at Wayland over 15 years and have worked and made decisions together. The newer math teachers are considered to be very strong, dependable, and will "grow with experience," as quoted by Mr. Fred Schlicher. One of the strongest aspects of the math department is the computer section. The first computer was purchased in 1967. Since then the computer program has expanded and is still growing. "It's just the beginning," said Kasper. In the future the math department expects to increase the level of computer usage. Perhaps the department will offer an AP computer course and, possibly, computer literacy will be a required class. Wayland's math department is, "very strong," and "can be compared to any other private school as an equal if not better," concluded Kasper. Science can be a real drag if it doesn't have the right elements. Those elements are good facilities , good quality courses, and a good student-teacher ratio. Over the past 15 years, Wayland Academy has acquired these elements. Prior to 1970, all science courses were taught in the basement of lin-

field Hall. There were six lecture rooms and no lab rooms. In 1968, Glen and Ella Dye donated over 1.5 million dollars to build the present science building. This science building has eight lecture rooms, four lab rooms, a computer room, an observatory, and a lecture auditorium. It's current value is estimated to be over six million dollars. During the past few years, the science curriculum has been greatly expanded. In the past, the only courses taught were intermediate level biology, chemistry, and physics. The Wayland Science Department now offers advanced placement and honors courses as well as intermediate courses and it offers electives such as ecology and astromony. Every year there are more students taking more than the required courses in science. The forty percent of these students who took three years of science in the 70's has doubled to eighty percent in the SO's. Wayland has progressed by leaps and bounds in the teaching of science. Mr. Elias Khreish, head of the science department, sums it up nicely. "Science is always in a state of progress, and the Wayland Science Department is keeping pace in order to prepare students for that progress." Science is becoming a much more exciting and popular subject and perhaps that is the greatest change of all.


English And History Wayland Academy is known for its outstanding teaching departments, and the English Department is no exception. Mr. Patterson is the head of the department. For all Wayland students English is required for 4 years. It is one of the most interesting requirements that Wayland has to offer. History keeps happening at Wayland. There are five history teachers that make history everyday: Mr. Baxter, Ms. Alpaugh, Mr. Peterson, Mr. Sanborn, and chairman, Mr. lilly. Two years of history are required, including one of U.S. history and one of global focus which is Western Civilization for grades 9-10 and World or European History for grades 11-1:2. History deals with what has happened in the past and how it affects the way we live today. For instance, it affects the way we run our government, the way we go about our daily lives, the way we write and many other things. "To understand the way we live," says Mr. lilly, "one has to know the past. Everything has a history: All academic subjects, all professions, everything. Without history, one can't understand the present, and definitely not the future." As well as history courses, there are many social studies courses that can be taken as elective credits. These include psychology, sociology, and economics. There are also others depending on demand and interest. In previous years, there have been philosophy and religion courses offered. Students seem most interested in contemporary studies, generally oriented around the 50's and 60's. According to Mr. Lilly. "Students seem to be most interested in events that have happened in the not so distant past. They are interested in how the events will effect them."

Foreign Language

About 26 years ago Monsieur Sampon came to Wayland Academy. He is now the Chairman of the Foreign Language Department. Upon interviewing him. I discovered many interesting facts. Monsieur started the first Language Lab in Wisconsin. He explained to me how, in the past, the language floor consisted of only two rooms. The remainder of this top floor of Linfield Hall was the upper portion of an auditorium. Signs of that can still be seen near Mr. Lennertz's Spanish room. The books used in the classrooms have also changed much since then. "We have gone from the more traditional books to the ones that use oral drills, which is very good, "says Monsieur. At the end of the interview I asked him if he thought the Foreign Language Department had progressed. He stated, without hesitation, "The department has definitely expanded." When asked to comment, Mr. Schneider said, "In order to make the Foreign Language Department more efficient and beneficial to students, we are offering trips to Spain and France." Mr. Schneider's statement shows that our Foreign Language Department is constantly changing and keeping up with the needs of the students.

Delightful Delectable Drama Wayland's Drama Department is di rected by Ms . Shelley Greenwood. The main thrust of the department is, of course, the plays; consisting of a musical in the fall, student directed OneActs in the winter, and a well -known play in the spring. This year the fall play was "Grease ", and "S tage Door" was the spring choice. In addition to directing and coordinating the fall and spring plays, Ms . Greenwood teaches two classes: A and P Drama , and Speech and Debate.

The "Wall," the theater games. the "Raging River," and the square dance . . . These names sound like rides at Great America, but instead they are part of Wayland's "Orientation." Orientation is a two day event that helps bring new students 路 out of the "fog" and into Wayland life. On Sunday, September 2nd, many new students arrived at Wayland, and many imagined themselves surrounded by a confusing fog . To many new students the Wayland campus looked nothing like the pictures they had seen. It looked totally different than it did when they took their tour. Instead, it seemed to be much larger and much more confusing. They began asking themselves: "Which dormitory is mine? Where do I go first and how do I get there? Which floor do I live on? Who's Mr. Schlicher?" The old students and teachers quickly came to the rescue. They directed students to their proper dormitories and rooms. answered as many questions as possible. and occasionally gave a brief tour. Some of the fog gradually began to lift, but much stayed. It was left up to the orientation group to dissolve the remaining fog . Orientation began with the theater

games, consisting of the ever famous "spoon game" and "Simon Says." The simple game of do what Simon says and don't do what Simon doesn't say. evolved into an incredible challenge for everyone. However. Megan Wahlen finally defeated Jenny Rogers by doing a push-up. The theater games allowed new students to meet one teacher, two old students and eight new students, who comprised their crew. later came the square dance, a time for boy j girl watching, dancing and socializing. The next morning the main event took place, and everone got up early to face the challenges of the obstacle course. The fog continued to lift, as the students hurtled over 15 foot walls, and climbed vines. like Tarzan. Meanwhile, the old students were advising, participating as crew leaders, spectating. or serving as doughnut munchers. In the end, the fog had cleared completely. and everyone had found his or her niche at Wayland. The students all had different impressions of orientation and later commented on it. Jennifer Morris found orientation to be, embarassing. unique, and challenging. Sarah Neely could only comment, "Nowhere else in the world would you find anything like it." So, in general, orientation had carried on its tradition of being a smashing success.

Everyday a long line awaited the machine for a chocolate or vanilla ice cream cone. At first, most of the people usually ended up getting ice cream on their laps or on the floor because they were not adept at the art of ice creamery. This became one reason for getting a cone four times a day; to practice! Others, however, just wanted to expand their waistlines.

The Wild Life "Beep, Beep, Beep! It's 6 a.m. and you're listening to Pink Floyd on hot rock'n 93 F.M." This was a very familiar sound to all the students at Wayland this year, as they began preparing themselves for the academic day ahead of them. The academic day at Wayland officially begins at 8:00 a.m. on Mondays through Fridays, with an occasional dreaded Saturday. On Mondays and Fridays students gathered in the chapel for "cordial" assemblies or chapel. However, on Tuesdays and Thursdays the 8:00 a.m. to 8:45 a.m. period became an additional study hour. Classes got off to a roaring start at 8:45 a.m., with first period. They continued until noon. Each class lasted for forty-five minutes, with a five minute recovery time in between classes. Lunch period consisted of forty-five minutes of freedom, in the middle of a sometimes very long day. Most students used this time for eating lunch, associating with friends, and reading mail. However, there were exceptions to this routine. Many of the girls congregated in Warren Hall's T.V. room to watch All My "Kids," while some of the senior boys finished last minute homework, and the junior boys caught up on a few winks of additional sleep. At 12:45 p.m., on the button, classes resumed, with fifth hour. Students continued this vigorous schedule until 3:10p.m., the end of seventh hour. Ties were quickly loosened and high heels flipped off, as students prepared for sports. At 3:30 p.m. all sports practices began and lasted until 5:30p.m. This provided time to get out all aggrevations and unwind a little. The vigorous schedule continued, with dinner from 5:45 p.m. until 6:30 p.m. Everyone quickly refueled their bodies, and began engaging in union activities. With the clock ticking away and 7:30 p.m. quickly approaching, students raced to the library, foreign language lab, or their rooms. At their respective destinations, they began to study and complete homework. Finally 9:30 p.m. arrived and the proctor cried "Break." The floors quickly filled with students running towards the Union or the telephones. Soon it was 10 o'clock, and everyone returned to the dorms, got ready for bed and finished their last minute homework. Finally, the supervisor knocked on doors and said, "II o'clock. Lights out. Goodnight."

Past Action Weekend Vs. Present

Action-Packed Weekend

The first Action Weekend was held Nov. 14th-16th, 1976. At that time photography and pottery were offered as well as rock climbing and hiking. Over the years the Action Weekend concept has been refined and improved. Action Weekends have been shortened from 3 days to 2 days, making them much less exhausting. When the weekends first started they were held much later in the year, around Nov. 19th. Now Action Weekend takes place within the first 3 weeks of school when the weather is not so cold. In the past, Action Weekend participants had to buy their own food. Now Saga supplies the meals. All in all, Action Weekends have improved a lot and they are a great way to get to know people. The student body seems to have a positive attitude about Action Weekends.

1984 Spirit Week Building effigies, decorating buildings, painting signs, and dressing up were all part of Spirit Week. Spirit Week began October 1st, with the first night of effigy construction, and ended October 7th, with the conclusion of Parents' Weekend. On Wednesday, dress-up days officially began, despite the efforts of juniors and seniors, who tried to begin on Monday. Wednesday was Jeans for Cancer Day, allowing everyone, who purchased tickets, to wear jeans. On Thursday everyone had the opportunity to venture back in time, and dress like they would in the fifties. Out came the white T-shirts, rolled up jeans, long skirts, and saddle shoes. With Friday came the traditional Red and White Day. Anything red or white, and in dress code was worn. At 2:00p.m. on Friday, the class effigies were shown. The freshmen produced a pack of gum, reading "Go Big Red," while the sophomores exhibited a redman preparing to skin a cat. The juniors, despite last minute difficulties, resurrected a giant "Gumby" on front campus, and the senior class appeared with a living effigy, consisting of lynne Laufenberg, and Julie Buelow, as wildcats. later, the winners were announced with the junior class in first place, and the sophomore class in second place. The last event was the deafening pep-rally on Friday night. From 9:15 until 10:30 p.m. a constant drone of yelling flowed from the gym. Each class performed unique skits, and Mr. Wolfe closed the pep-rally with a German Band number, requiring everyone's participation. The hectic and tiring week led up to an astounding football victory over the Wildcats, from University School of Milwaukee. later, Saturday night. the tempo was again upbeat with the Spirit Week Dance. Kathy Stilin and Junior Tao brought a peaceful ending to a long week. They and their court consisting of David Phillips and lyz Geldhot, representing the freshmen; Giles Aylesworth and Jill Richards, representing the sophomores; Howard Vaughan and Courtnay Farmer, representing the juniors; and Dave londergon and Heidi Hillmann, representing the seniors were all crowned.

Dr. Ellis' New Views Of Parents' Weekend "Parents' Weekend was designed for parents and their children. It was a time to check grades, but more importantly. a time for parents to recognize and accept the changes in their children." This was the purpose of Parents' Weekend, as seen through the eyes of Dr. Ellis. In an interview, shortly after Parents' Weekend. Dr. Ellis stated his views on the weekend. "The nicest part of Parents' Weekend was watching the reactions of parents, as they discovered their children were growing and changing." Dr. Ellis then went on to speculate, that when students attend Wayland, they learn to live without constant parental guidance. As a result, when in need of advice, the students usually begin to turn towards their peers, teachers, or even themselves for help. Parents' Weekend provided a chance for parents to see in their children this new found independence. It gave them a chance to

meet the people, who were influential in their children's lives. Dr. Ellis made some changes in the traditional Parents' Weekend. "We wanted Parents' Weekend to be more casual. The theme of the weekend remained the same, however, we tried not to create an artificial situation." Dr. Ellis remarked. Changing Saturday afternoon lunch from a sitdown meal, with a speaker, to a casual outdoor barbeque, was one of Dr. Ellis's changes. This proved to be a successful way of dissolving some of the unnecessary formality, and providing more free time for parents to be with their children. Dr. Ellis concluded the interview by saying, "I found Parents' Weekend to be a lot of fun . I enjoyed the casual conversations with parents." Parents' Weekend has developed into a Wayland tradition, of which the faculty. students, and Dr. Ellis can be very proud.


A Time To Recapture Old Memories

Alumni Weekend When most high school seniors graduate, they feel glad to be through with high school. However, this euphoria is never really complete because they know that soon they will be missing many of their friends. Even before the graduation ceremony is over, some are thinking of a reunion. Well, alumni of Wayland get the chance to regroup and go over old times every year during alumni reunion weekend. Wayland had its class reunion on the weekend of October 26th. Alumni, ranging from last year's graduates to graduates of 1904, attended this alumni weekend. The weekend wasn't restricted to just alumni. Juniors and seniors participated by talking with alumni about career planning and college choices. Some of the careers discussed were: business, medicine, entrepreneurship. and law. Most of the students really enjoyed the conversations and found them to be helpful. The rest of the weekend was primarily for the alumni to become reaquainted with the campus and to rekindle old memories.

Happy Turkey Day

Gobble Till You Wobble It was Sunday evening and Waylandites were dressing up for a nice Thanksgiving dinner. Everyone was excited, because they knew it would be something a little different; and it surely was. Dave Scherer and the Saga crew had prepared a wonderful turkey with mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing and delicious pumpkin pie. Everything was in its place and the dining room was decorated. People were anxious about going home for vacation and it was fun to watch them frantically pack up their suitcases for the holiday.

This particular holiday shed a totally different light on the dance scene. People dressed in costumes, unleashed their wildest imaginations and came out looking like new people. There were vampires, witches, ghosts, ghouls, and other typical Halloween costumes. Some costumes were hilarious to look at; others were surprisingly real; some were unidentifiable. The D.J. was good. He played many of today's Top40 hits, including "The Glamourous Life," and "Panama." He also played "Tommy" by The Who, and "Shout" from Animal House. Unfortunately the turntable sometimes skipped, depending on the popularity of the song. The dance was a time when one could simply forget his or her worries and tensions, and get out on the floor and be wild with fellow students.


A Christmas Pageant

lessons And Carols Lessons and Carols was an elaborate event at Wayland Academy. Faculty and students practiced many hours to make this special event perfect. In the end, they were rewarded. The Lessons and Carols service of 1984 turned out to be a success. The Lessons were done well by the faculty and the handbell choir sounded great. The studentfaculty choir added a wonderful finish ing touch to the program.

A Shoppers Paradise Shopko And Movies Shopko is the supreme hangout for Wayland students. Shopko is a huge store, selling all kinds of things ranging from toothpaste to cheap stereos. Students go there to buy things for their rooms. useful or otherwise. While down there. they look around and make comments, generally on how inferior the wares there are compared to their own possessions. Students can stay occupied there for hours on end. Nobody knows why or how. but somehow they do. Another popular Wayland student hangout is the Wisconsin Theatre. The two movies shown there are generally shown two months or so after their release in Chicago or other large cities. Students. however, still enjoy movies as much as Shopko. It makes for a good two hours of entertainment before returning to the exciting Wayland social scene.

Pizza Hut, Burger King,

McDonald's

McDonald's, Burger King, and Pizza Hut were havens for the hungry. refuge for the ravished. and super savers for the Saga-satiated. Many students went to these places to eat. because although Saga food wasn't all that terrible. it wasn't all that good, either. It was a must for a student to go off campus at least once a week and get that Big Mac, Whopper or deep dish pizza. The nicest thing about eating off campus, however. was that so much variety could be found in Beaver Dam.

Laundry &. Mail According to Wayland students, if there was one thing worse than nuclear war it was doing their laundry. Laundry at Wayland was always quite an ordeal. It began with touching the disgusting clothes which had been accumulating in the closet for the past months; then went on to finding washers and dryers that worked; and finally culminated with guarding them with ferocity from those sly characters, "the machine snatchers." Before. after. or during laundry time Wayland students always had to check their mail. even if they had checked it an hour before, find ing nothing. They resembled children checking their stockings during the Christmas season. There was always the hope that when one opened his box he would find either a letter from a girlfriend, boyfriend. or family member, or information regarding college. Mark Hilleary feels, "It's not what it is, just so something is there."

Dance, Dance, Dance Life at Wayland would not be complete without our occasional dances. During the school year, a variety of dances occurred, which provided additional excitement for weekends. The year began with an old-fashion square dance, and ended with the formal prom. The various dances in between, put on by different classes and organizations, added some excitement, fun, and orginality to what could have been a very long year.

The Union was social city. It was a place where Stlldents could socialize. eat, and enjoy a game of pool or pins pong. The Union was not only useful for recreation, but also as a place to study. and hold class meetings. Mark Copley explained, "The Union is a great place to study, it isn't really noisy, but there is still enough music to make the atmosphere comfortable." In short the Union was another one of the places that made Wayland so spe¡ cial.

A Midsummer Night's Dream Spring Green Saga And Shakespeare This year Wayland students continued the two year old tradition of going to Spring Green for a Shakespeare play. They experienced culture through the hilarious Shakespearean play "A Midsummer Night's Dream." The bus ride was long and hot but once they reached the American Player's Theatre they were greeted with a "Saga Dave Picnic Special. " After munching they trekked through the woods to the beautiful open-air theatre. There the audience witnessed the many trials and woes of four Athenian lovers. During intermission the crowd had to deal with a brief rain shower which ended once the play resumed. (Was it the mischievous Puck at work?) One student remarked, "I enjoyed the play and it helped me understand the book much better." The students had experienced the Bard in one of the most enjoyable ways possible.

Rydell High Comes To Wayland -._/

_,.

Grease is a play that tells a story about teenage life in the fifties. The setting is Rydell High School and the story revolves around two cliques, the Burger Palace Boys. and the Pink ladies. The main characters are Sandra Dee and Danny Zuko. This play is a funny. yet serious love story. Mary Rolle (Frenchy) Q, How do you feel about your charac-

ter? A: "I like her because she's stupid but loveable. It's kind of difficult playing an airhead, but it's fun." Sara Harkness (Marty) Q , How did you feel about this production? Did it go well? Was it fun? A: "I had a great time doing Grease. It's a good show and we had a fun cast. We had our ups and downs. but overall I think we managed to do a pretty good job."

Choir And Orchestra The year was filled with many activities and the orchestra and choir were an important part. "In choir we are able to express that which cannot be expressed by words alone," commented Mr. Peck. "The orchestra provides an opportunity for instrumentalists to perform classical music." added Mr. Peck simply, after a deliberation.

What Is Fashion At Wayland? There were many unique and classy fashions at Wayland Academy that accented the campus everyday of the '84/'85 school year. Each individual had his or her own look. Sometimes it seemed as though people didn't think twice about what they put on in the morning. If it looked nice, it looked nice; if it didn't, it just didn't. Who cared? Really. lots of students did. As the weeks went by, complying with the dress code became somewhat monotonous. Individualism in students' dress became apparent. Most students were just layed back. Whatever the case may have been, the fact remained that some of the best clothing from all around the world existed on this campus during the '84/'85 school year. It was just a matter of wearing it well.

Top, Jennifer Sheridan wears it well. Above, Mary Rolle, Julie Buelow, Kim Ernest, Julia Johnson, Betsy Schroeder, Jenny Rogers and Jennifer Sheridan pose for the look of elegance. Above left, "The way we dress is the way we dress!" exclaim lan Ellis and Greg Riley. 46

Painting, Pottery, Photography And Sketches Photography is a way to express emotions and tell a story. "Each year a larger group of kids get involved; it's great!" remarked Ms. Walter. A possible future project is to have a class which combines art and photography. This would involve painting, drawing, and making pictures and posters, etc. "The students in class this year especially enthusiastic and willing to work," elaborated Ms. Walter. The Art courses are made up of many different levels from beginning to advanced. In the beginning course students are introduced to painting and color theory. The advanced students can get involved with different techniques; water color, pen and ink, and scratch board work. Ceramics is another art class available at Wayland. "Ceramics is a way to take out frustra tions," stressed Mrs. Gillen, the ceramics instructor.

The Redmen kickers certainly had a very successful season this year. Being tied for 3rd in the conference at the end of the season and almost qualifying for state playoffs made this season great. The most exciting moment was when the Red kickers destroyed the best team in the conference. Being the underdog team, the Red kickers strove to put out their best and got what they deserved. Coach Cobb was very pleased.











Touche' And Varsity P.E. Jocks

r Chuckie Sheppard Shares Some Comments About P.E. My experience with gym has been one of a different nature this semester. We started out with a running and weight lifting unit and then went on to swimming, aerobic, and racquetball units. The fact that I had gym at 8:15 a.m. was very relevant. That early in the morning I was rarely awake, so I often went to gym like a walking zombie. Physical education is not a "blow-off" course. People tend to think that P.E. jocks go to the field house and play. Well, for your information physical education is serious business. Miss Parr and Miss Hidde mean what they say: Work! Work! Work!! For instance, we had to take written tests in P.E. These tests were graded as any test would be in an academic class. But all this hard work was worth it, as we got our flabby bodies in shape. "I am really pleased with the way classes have been going. So far we've done some new units and I think everyone has enjoyed them. I hope everyone continues to be positive and enthusiastic," said Miss Hidde, P.E. in- 64 structor.

Above, Mina Amir-Mokri comments, "Aha. I've got you now." Top left, John Packer. Brian Thomas and Jenny Sanborn are true examples of Wayland P.E. Jocks.


Gates, PolesSki Team When asked to comment on the ski team the replies were as follows: Mike Traurig remarked, "I think the guys team will place very respectably at state this year." Mr. Resch stated, "Ski team is the epitome of fun, hard work, enthusiasm and success." Ben Scheerer added, "Ski team looks tough and competitive this year." These were just a few of the thoughts about the ski team.

Foreign Students One of the many things separating Wayland Academy from other schools is it's increasing number of foreign students. Thirteen different countries were represented at Wayland this year: Zambia, Sweden, West Germany, Saudi Arabia, Spain, Thailand. Hong Kong, Canada. Korea, Mexico, Belgrade, Africa and Barbados. Some of the Wayland students were originally from these countries, and others had parents stationed there temporarily. These students brought with them customs, languages. and experiences which added a special flavor and character to Wayland.

Varsity Club The Varsity Club at Wayland consists of those girls who have earned at least two varsity letters. New members are admitted three times a year. This year initiations were conducted while devouring pizzas and subs. The Varsity Club sells candy throughout the year at sporting events and in Warren Hall. The money earned is put toward new uniforms for girls' sports. This year new field hockey skirts were purchased with the help of the Varsity Club. The club officers were Bridget Szweda, Mina Amir-Mokri, and Megan Wahlen, with Miss Alpaugh as their advisor.

Union Proctors The Union is one of the most popular and busiest places on campus. The Union proctors are in charge of maintaining the recreational equipment and providing a peaceful atmosphere. Although this job was not always easy. it was done well by the 1984/ 85 proctors. "I enjoy being a Union proctor because I like the respect I receive from the students," commented Chuckie Sheppard.

Dorm Proctors The word proctor at Wayland is synonymous with responsibility. Each dormitory has several proctors to monitor study hours, and help dormitory supervisors. Proctoring sounds like an easy job but it isn't. Proctors spend a large portion of their study hours. quieting down the students and maintaining that silence. At times, they use the three fatal words, "You are dormed." The proctors this year served as leaders both inside and outside the dorm. Occasionally they were rewarded with a night out.

Thespians The Thespian Society has been a very intriguing attraction for many years at Wayland. The Thespian Society is an organization of students who have spent 100 hours of time being in some way involved with high school theatre work . "Some high school directors," says advisor Ms. Shelley Greenwood, " want to have the best production with the best actors in the sc hool and a paid professional crew. I don' t go for that. I want the plays to be the student 's work and ideas. Most of all , I want them to do something new!" Wayland has a format of two major productions , and two student dire cted One Acts. " I usually have one musical and one non-musical. I try to choose very different plays each year, " added Ms. Greenwood. " I choose a play I think the students can handle." Under Ms. Greenwood 's direction Wayland sees a variety of plays involving many students.

I Prefects The prefect system was initiated this year in hopes of increasing the communication between faculty and students. last spring, Julie Buelow, Diane Eliason. William Hahn , Jody Helbling, linda Manaugh, Herbie Moore, David Towner, Becky Vandenberg and Hosein Zand (first sem.) were appointed by Dr. Ellis as senior prefects for the 1984/ 85 school year . The prefects were to act as class advisors, serve on various school committees and bridge the communication gap between students and teachers. The new system worked well in the Wayland communi ty and will be continued in the years to come.

Student Government This year Student Government. a new form of Wayland government. replaced the Student Council. The Student Government met twice a month to discuss ideas for student activities, community service projects and other new plans. Ms. Greenwood, the faculty advisor, felt that the committee did an excellent job and worked very well together for their first year. She is looking forward to increasing the responsibilities of the Student Government members. The future of Student Government looks good and the student body will become more aware of the committee as it becomes bigger, better, and more involved.

Admissions Committee Each year a group of twenty or thirty students receive invitations to join one of the most important organizations at Wayland, the Admissions Committee. These students, under the direction of Mr. Anderson and Mr. McNulty. give tours to prospective students visiting the campus. This year the committee organized two Open Houses, one for the prospective day students and one for the prospective boarding students. The Admissions Committee plays an important role in the continuation of a positive and academically sound student body. Right, Chuckie Sheppard, Hosein Zand.

Academic Affairs The Academic Affairs Committee has many functions . The committee, consisting of two department heads, three faculty members, one senior, one junior and one senior prefect. meets six times a year. During these meetings the committee determines the school calendar, and recommends policies to Dr. Ellis . The committee also handles any problems which occur in adding or dropping courses or in changing our curriculum. The committee, as a group. generally acts as "right hand man" for Dr. Ellis.

Judicial Committee The Judicial Committee, one of the most prestigious committees at Wayland, consists of both students and teachers. They are called upon to decide the penalty a student should receive for breaking a rule or rules. The committee hears both sides of the issue at hand, and then provides Dr. Ellis and Mr. Cobb with their recommendations . The students comprising this commitee must be capable of remaining impartial and honest. even if their friends are involved. The Judicial Committee plays a very important role in the Wayland Community, and its members are considered to be some of the finest students. Midd le left , Brett Olson sig hs. "Another meet ing!

The yearbook staff really had a task cut out for them this year. It takes a lot of dedication and patience to complete a yearbook and this year was no exception. The staff consisted mainly of students enrolled in the Journalism class taught by Ms. Dee Walter. The class learned and executed page layout and design, writing. and photography. There are many different jobs that have to be completed before a yearbook page is finished . The photographs must be planned, taken and printed. Interviews must be set up; the articles must be written, then revised and finally. typed. The page must be designed, and the headlines and captions written. These are just a few of the necessary steps taken toward the completion of a yearbook page. All in all this year's staff can truly say it was a joy to work on and be a part of the yearbook production. As you can see, the finished product turned out successfully.

Class Officers Each year the students nominate and vote for class officers. These officers take on the additional responsibility of being class leaders and organizers. The class officers arrange various fund raising activities, such as bake sales and dances. This year's class officers were also responsible for weekend activities such as the Senior Christmas Dance and the Junior Halloween Dance. The role of class officer not only requires a responsible individual, but also a dedicated and creative individual. The student body put forth much effort to find adequate officers. They made many fine selections. Left , Morgan O 'Regan works on a lay -out in clas s. Above , Journalism students (1 .-r .)

Thanks To Mr. Schlicher And Mr. Sampon For 25 Years Of Service

1984 marked twenty-five years of service from two of our most distinguished faculty members-Mr. Frederic Schlicher and Mr. Victor Sampon. Mr. Schlicher is a Wayland alumnus of the class of '48. In 1959 he returned to Wayland Academy as a math teacher and assistant athletic coach. In 1979 he was given the Outstanding Teacher Award by the Wisconsin Society of Professional Engineers. In 1983, along with his duties as Chairman of the Math Department, he was named Director of Studies. Mr. Sampon, fondly known as Monsieur, came to Wayland in 1959. In the twenty-five years he has been here, Monsieur has worked hard to improve Wayland's foreign language department. He was the founder of Wayland's language lab, one of the first in the state and the Midwest. In the 1970's he was named an Outstanding Secondary Educator. later, he became Chairman of the Foreign language Department. Monsieur also founded the Wayland fencing program, one of the only high school fencing programs in the state.

Above left , Susan Seippel Grow , '61. of the Alumni Associa t ion, looks on as Monsieur Sampon delivers a speech at the award ceremony. Above Righ t, Mr. Schlicher, with wife Norma, receives a special print in honor of twenty-five years of serv ice.

Dedication Means: Wholehearted Devotion The dedication process is twofold; We are dedicating this yearbook to one who has dedicated much of his time and self to Wayland Academy.

Mr. Luebke is the Assistant to the Athletic Director. He is an individual who helps people everyday without desiring remuneration of any kind. His responsibilities are varied, including that of equipment manager. trainer. driver and fan . He also assists the coaches with maintenance and repair of equipment. Bill has acquired a reputation for being loyal. dependable and trustworthy. Acting Athletic Director Steve Sharpe calls Bill "Mr. Reliable." "I've never heard Bill say the word no," Sharpe commented. "Bill is a very conscientious person. Give him a list of things that you need and he will do them." Bill has been involved in sports ever since high school. where he played defensive line in football, wrestled on the varsity squad, and was a shot putter and discus thrower in track. His interest in management and training began later in his high school career. When asked what aspect of his work he most enjoyed, Bill replied, "my position as trainer." One reason Bill enjoys being trainer is because he can really get to know the students as individuals. Another reason he enjoys this is because he likes talking with the students about their various backgrounds. He is a Dodge County native, thus he finds the knowledge he has acquired about different cultures and countries very interesting. Aside from his athletic responsibilities Bill also has a number of other duties. These duties sometimes require getting up early or staying up late. Many times Bill is called upon to transport students to and from the airport. Bill's job also requires him to return to campus each night at ten p.m. to check and lock each of the buildings on campus. When asked to comment on his demanding schedule he replied , "You get used to the hours." Bill Luebke is a valuable asset to Wayland. I think we can speak for the whole Wayland community in stating that we are very fortunate to have an employee like Bill. So for all you've done for us, THANKS Blllll 127


Memories Of

Wayland Live On

Good-Bye People will come and go from Wayland, however, the memories will always remain. The snow ball and shaving cream fights, the football games, and the late night pizza parties are all part of a tradition that will never die. Each year seniors graduate, but they will not be forgotten as the Wayland family continues to grow.

One Acts:

~~senior

Play'' ;~~Memories''

One Acts Every year during the winter the Wayland Players present two or three student directed One Act Plays. This year's productions were "Senior Play" directed by Pleshette Hamb and "Memories" directed and written by Chris Gillen. Pleshette Hamb commented, "It was a great privilege to see all of my efforts combined to produce a successful final product." The "Senior Play" was a drama that depicted a young teacher's decision regarding who should play the lead in the last play of the senior year. It involved the stunts of an overdemanding, ambitious mother who insisted that her daughter play the lead. "Memories" was a story of an old widower who was looking back on his first date with his wife who had just recently passed away. It was a lighter drama with some comic overtones. When the plays were presented on February 8th ~ 9th, it was obvious that the hard work and practice had been worthwhile, because the productions were very successful. Top left, Ellen Carlson, as Julia ferris and Sarah Goddard , as Marsha Benson. discuss who will win the lead in the senior play. Middle left , Laura Siemon, is would-be actress Helen Douglas in "Senior Play." Middle right , Dan Cronin, as the delivery boy. and Jim Sharpe. as Ed foster , are in the final scene of "Memories."

Spring Fever

Spring Has Sprung The flowers, fresh air. and sunshine seemed to bring out the best in everyone. The green grass and the blue sky symbolized freedom; sometimes too much freedom. This year everyone • . from eighth grade all the way up through the faculty. seemed to suffer from some form of "Spring Fever." Whether it was Mr. Patterson humming a few bars of his favorite song or John lee skipping his seventh hour class to finish a game of ultimate frisbee. it was all Spring Fever. The seniors began to trot to their classes wearing shorts, T-shirts and smiles. Mary Beth Wilson found the spring of her senior year to be fancy free and wonderful. Yes. Spring Fever had set in. endangering all age groups.

On March 30th. Wayland launched it's second annual Dance Marathon in the Union at 7 o'clock P.M. The evening started off with a normal dance that was open to everyone. However. once the clock struck midnight, the event ceased to be a normal dance and became a competitive marathon. The participating students, who had started at seven. were to go on dancing until seven the next morning. This meant dancing would last a total of twelve hours. "Twelve hours didn't seem that much to my partner and me," stated Sam Sackett, a marathon finalist . However. the long hours of dancing did take their toll on many participants. Out of the 26 couples that started, only S couples remained dancing by 7 o'clock A.M. That morning all of the participants were invited out to Country Kitchen for breakfast. The finalists received Dance Marathon T-shir}s. In al respects, the dance turned out very well. thanks to its coordinator, Mr. Bill Bedford. Mr. Bedford seemed pleased with this year's marathon. "It was great. I was especially pleased with the general behavior of the students," remarked Mr. Bedford. The Dance Marathon is quickly becoming a tradition at Wayland Academy. and will probably continue for many years to come.


Auction, Raffles Big Top Carnival; Spring Parents' Weekend-

'85

Parents' Weekend The tradition of hosting successful Spring Parents' Weekends continued this year. During the weekend of May 4th-6th, Wayland Academy students entertained their parents for a funfilled weekend. Friday was primarily parent-teacher conferences and sporting events, allowing some time later that evening for parents and students to relax. The theme of the 1985 Spring Parents' Weekend was "The Big Top,'' and on Saturday the circus-like atmosphere was especially obvious. The tents on campus were filled with children of every age enjoying cotton candy and popcorn. The biggest event of the evening was the auction culminating with the drawing for a car. The Van Haren's were lucky enough to drive home in the car. On Sunday there were some tearful goodbyes, which were quickly changed to smiles with the announcement of half day classes on Monday. Parents Weekend was a lot of fun for everyone.

Stage Door "Stage Door" was the delightful comedy production that was presented by the Wayland Players on April 25th & 26th, 1985. This play had a total of thirty-two roles and, although many o( the actors and actresses weren't experienced, Ms. Greenwood, drama director. did an excellent job of casting. The setting of the play was the Footlights Club, a New York boarding house for women. The women who lived there all dreamed of making it big on Broadway. Each female character. with her own unique personality, worked within the group to project a wonderful story line. Matt Hickey commented. "I've been involved in various plays and I've come to the conclusion that every minute of 'Stage Door' was worth it." Pam Haas added, "I was never in a play before and let me tell you it was greatll It was a great way to get psyched for spring."

Prom Night Prom is a dance that is different than all others. It is a time when students get together and create special memories. "There's a lot of enthusiasm from the student body," remarked Bill Kasper, Junior C;ass President. The t heme of the 1985 Junior Prom was "Wizard of Oz." The decorations and sce nery were created with the help of Mrs. Dohmann. Prom advisor. This year Prom broke away from tradition, with new ideas and plans. To raise money the Junior Class sponsored a well-organized beach party. It allowed students to get together and have a good time. The highlights of the party were the skits students did, in which they imitated their favorite singer or group. Post-Prom, a non-traditional dance, lasted from 1.2:00 A.M. to 3:00A.M. and was followed by a breakfast. PostProm went over really well; the students e njoyed staying out late. dancing and going a little crazy. "Overall, Prom and Post-Prom both turned out well," stressed Bill Kasper. Above, King . Jason Bemis and Queen. Jenny Downey take the floor for their first dance. Top, 1985 Prom Court (1.-r .), Mike Turner. Sarah Goddard. King. Jason Bemis, Queen. Jenny Downey .

Wayland Players

On May 19. the Wayland Players met in Pickard Hall for their annual theatre banquet and the presentation of this year's Drama awards. To become a Wayland Player, a student must have participated in one of this year's productions. The highlight of the evening was the presentation of this year's winners of the Best Thespian awards. These awards were given in recognition of outstanding contributions by members of Wayland's Troupe 1538. Other awards were given to the outstanding performers, on stage and off, for this year's shows: "Grease," "Memories," "Senior Play," and "Stage Door." Another great part of the evening was listening to the Senior Prophet. One senior was chosen to make prophecies about where and what the graduating Wayland Players will be doing in the future. A Dator looked back with humor at the season. Thespian Troupe 1538's President. Peter Bredlau, summed it up by saying. "It was a lot of fun, especially the prophecies." Chris Gillen was elected as President for next year.

Baseball Wayland's baseball team got off to a great start in their 1985 season as they gave their opposing team a thrashing in the team's first conference game. Thanks to some great hitting and pitching, the score was a smashing 12 to I victory. While the team started off rather slowly in the first inning with a losing score of 0-1, they absolutely exploded in the second inning. Dan Beilfuss. the Wayland pitcher. started to hurl the ball with such speed and accuracy that he managed to strike out 17 batters in the course of the game. When Wayland started to bat, the performance of the team was even more impressive. Wayland scored at least one run per inning and ended the game with Dan Schlaff launching a grand slam to complete the victory. The roaring crowds didn 't stop cheering for five minutes after the game ended. The team was delighted. They had practiced hard for a month prior to the game and wanted to win very badly. "We were set on kicking this team's rear-end," declared outfielder, Dan Fox. The first game set a definite pace for the rest of the season, as Wayland went on to conquer many other teams. Middle, The Wayland Baseball team's spirit is not dampened by the dreary weather during a tiring game. Above, Dan Schlaff waits for the ball to approach so he can smack it out of the ball park.

Boys' & Girls' Track The Wayland Boys' Track team was back in action, and worked hard to defend their conference championship. The boys held their first meet April 4th and emerged victorious. The team , primarily due to several tremendous athletes, was able to finish first. Herbie Moore and Scott Posnanski flew over the hurdles, winning first and second place. Herbie Moore, later, leaped great distances in the Running long Jump to acquire another first. Bill Kasper dashed into an easy first in the 100 yard dash, while Bill Robinson sent the discus into a flying spin for a first. Meanwhile, Peter Bredlau ran into an easy victory in the mile and two-mile runs. The boys easily ran away with their first victory for the season. Twenty-two bright and shining faces began their rigorous track practice on Monday, March 25th. These twenty-two girls trained very hard and obtained a victory in their opening meet. With Coach Hidde's inspiring attitude, the girls went on to have one of their finest seasons.

Will there ever be another day so festive? Graduation can be seen as the transcending of past goals. only to be replaced by broader lifetime goals. The graduates encounter the "Real World," each searching to find where his/ her piece fits in the puzzle. What will come of the graduates of '85? Might an alumni of the class of '85 someday become an engineer of the

latest in mobility? Maybe there's a future Nobel Peace-Prize Winner lurking in the class. Then again, one of them may just wander along the winding roads of the USA. finding the same degree of satisfaction. At any rate, all these unanswered questions show that graduation is not the end, it's just the beginning.
