Kenneth G. Ryder President

MESSAGE TO THE CLASS OF 1978

On the occasion of your graduation from Northeastern University, I extend warmest, best wishes to each member of the class of 1978.

We, at the university, hope that your life in future years will be richly satisfying and fulfilling. Your friends in the faculty and administration all hope that learning begun in your days at Northeastern will serve as a solid foundation for future intellectual growth. Whether you continue further work in higher education or seek immediate employment in professional fields, a program of life-long learning should be your objective . As graduation approaches, it is easy for each student to recognize how much there is still to learn and how little can be packaged into a traditional degree program. We hope that in your years at Northeastern new doors have been opened, new areas of intellectual challenge discerned and that you have already established some goals for further self-enrichment in the immediate future .

You are part of a generation of students strongly motivated to prepare for a specific professional career but, beyond that, your generation has shown an underlying idealism and deep concern with improving the world in which we live. We believe that for most of you, your experience at Northeastern Univer- sity will prove of great value as a solid preparation for successful careers in the years ahead. You have had an opportunity to test the practical world, make your way in it and develop a wide variety of skills in preparation for employment. The University takes great pride in your accomplishments to date and is confident that among this graduating class are to be found many of the outstanding leaders of our society in coming years .

One final plea. Whatever career you eventually choose to pursue, keep alive your idealistic commitment to use your skills in ways which will improve our world and the lot of your fellow man. Keep alive, too, a commitment to self- improvement so that you continue to grow in wisdom and understanding and bring to fruition all of the great intellectual potential which is only partially developed as you graduate from Northeastern University.

My sincere best wishes go with you.

dially,

fnneth G . Ryder

When students are asked what the main catalyst was that drew them to Northeastern, the majority answer "co-op."

Upon those four letters rests the $27,000 invest- ment that continues to draw 15,000 students annually to the university.

However, with all its attractiveness and charm, students are not assured of getting a job . . .or of keeping it once they get it. Occasionally, jobs are not even major-related.

The cooperative plan of education began in 1 909 with eight students from the College of Engi- neering who worked and attended school during alternate weeks of the year. Today, the program has expanded to encompass approximately 8,500 upperclassmen employed at 2,500 companies around the world.

In 1976, construction was completed on the $2 million Russell B. Stearns Center for Cooperative Education. The six-story building houses several departments under one roof, and replaced the small offices in Richards and Churchill Halls. The building was named after an honorary chairman of the University's Board of Trustees. Stearns was one of the original founders of the present co-op program and donated funds toward building the Stearns Center.

Originally, building the center on the outskirts of campus met with unfavorable reaction from several people, including Paul Pratt, dean of the Department of Cooperative Education. According to Pratt, he was against building the center so far away from the campus because it would be iso- lated from students, but he has since changed his

opinion. He now likes the fact that the entire department is under one roof, plus the fact that the university is gradually expanding in the direction of the center.

Sixty-eight years of research and improvements have made Northeastern's program one of the fin- est and most widely-recognized of all 1 1 50 col- leges and universities in the United States and Canada utilizing co-op programs, Pratt said. The department employs 1 02 people of which 50 are Northeastern graduates.

A 1974 study by the Arthur D. Little Company showed that the co-op program is beneficial to employers in several ways. It reported that co-op students prove to be a good source of paraprofes- sional or preprofessional manpower, that the pro- gram contributes in improving the personnel selec- tion process, and that it fosters effective college relations.

In 1974, the department incorporated an over- seas placement program which places between 24-50 junior and senior engineering, computer, social services, nursing and business students in positions in Israel, England, France and Germany. Most jobs have been found to pay between $75- $100 per week, and students are usually required to pay their own room and board plus air fare, said Donald Allen, director of International Placement.

Approximately 114 students were placed over- seas between January 1 976 and November 1 977, according to Allen.

Steve Knott, a senior majoring in accounting, worked at a London business firm as a staff auditor for six months in 1977.

Whitney Harris on co-op at KCC-Ledgemont Labs, Lexington.

Knott said his job occasionally bordered on the routine, but he was able to supplement time spent in the office with time travelling to other compa- nies, which gave him a broader scope of experi- ence.

His job paid 42 pounds per week which would be equivalent to about $62 in the United States, Knott said, as compared to $230, which is the average salary for an auditing co-op job in the United States.

He said he found the job to be great experience despite the financial loss, adding that he would recommend it to all junior and senior students who could afford to do it.

Many foreign countries have expressed interest in Northeastern's program, Pratt said. In October of 1976, a Japanese film crew produced a docu- mentary on the co-op program, which later aired on Japanese national television.

According to Pratt, one major goal of the pro- gram is to incorporate the co-op experience with classroom time to create an overall more meaning- ful experience.

He added that he is against students receiving academic credit for co-op because he feels it might result in students not pursuing electives. He feels the electives prove to be very helpful in "the real world."

Pratt said that in 1 932 a student on co-op could expect to earn about $15 per week. Today some business majors earn between $200-$250 per week, although several Liberal Arts majors have not fared as well.

The median co-op placement rate over the last five years has been between 90-95%, Pratt said, adding that the majority of unemployed students were not available to be placed for work. Last fall 97% of Division B students were placed, he said.

For some students, co-op has proved to be a rewarding experience, while others have had some "not-too-memorable" moments.

A former biology student almost accepted a job at a local candy company which paid $2.20 an hour, but decided to enlist in the military instead!

In June, 1 976, Tom Manning, a junior journalism major, sold ice cream at Hampton Beach, New Hampshire for $2.50 an hour because co-op could not place him in a position related to his major.

However, Manning later got a job as an editorial assistant at. Stone and Webster Engineering Cor- poration in the fall of 1 976, which paid a little better . . . $139 per week. Manning experienced the effects of the energy crunch and the dislike by some of nuclear power plants, and was subse- quently laid off. Last spring found Manning work- ing as a gopher at Herrick and Summers, a Boston law firm, where his salary was not as generous as what he was earning at Stone and Webster. In Jan- uary 1977, Manning returned to Stone and Web- ster.

His feelings on his positions were summed up simply . . . "The messenger job was totally use- less," he said. "The job at Stone and Webster was good because the skills I learned there could be applied to newspaper writing."

Although the accident rate for students on co-op has been low, there have been a couple ot co-op related accidents over the last five years. According to Pratt, a civil engineering student bled to death in 1 975 when his arm was caught in a 1 5- year-old coring machine at the U.S. Army Cold Regions Research Engineering Laboratory in Hanover, New Hampshire.

The student had been told never to operate the jmachine without proper supervision, Pratt said, adding that the case has since been closed.

The cooperative plan of education has given Students the opportunity to experience jobs and careers they might not otherwise have had. It lets a Student sample the many things open to him after nis graduation from NU. Occasionally, students Jare hired after graduation with a firm they worked or while on co-op.

Co-oping on the Israeli co-op

By RUTH SHUMAN

What's the first thing you do if transportation to your co-op job is in a 747 which Hies you half-way around the world? Having been a par tic i pa n I of the kibbutz University Semester in Israel. I can tell you — fasten your seal belt!

Rona Dorfman, 76 LA, and I landed in Tel Aviv in September. 1974. to begin a new life as Northeastern co-op students on a kibbutz.

Ruth Shuman

We and 21 other Americans were immediately driven to Usha, a kibbutz 40 miles south of the Lebonese border. The kibbutz began in 1938 when a youth group came to Palestine from Poland. When this group, arrived, there was nothing but rocks. Thirty- seven years later there exists a cohesive group of 300, surrounded by grass, tress, and flowers.

At Usha all of us were adopted by kibbutz parents who made us feel like a part of the community. We lived in the volunteers' houses, three students to a room, and shivered many a night as it was the rainy season and our kerosene heaters had to be put out at bed- time.

If you asked me what my job

was I'd have to say washing dis- $1 ,100. which includes transporta- hes. But knowing that menial task tion to and from Israel, tuition, was essential in running the kib- and conducted tours throughout but/ made it a daily challenge. I the country. Room and board are usually worked three and a half supplemented through work, days a week, rising at 5:30 a.m. and quitting at 2 p.m.

The operation in the kibbutz was very efficient. By 9 a.m. lunch, served at noon, was already cooked, and dinner, made mostly of salad and eggs, was completely prepared. Health-wise, plans were evolving to build a separate house and to train nurses for the future when the older members can no longer care for themselves.

On school days we would wake at 7 a.m. and board a bus to Haifa University — 20 minutes of win- ding roads to the top of Mt. Carmel.

We sat through nine con- secutive hours of classes in Politics and Government, Zionism, and Bible and History of the Kibbutz, all taught in English. We also studied conversational Hebrew, since many people we worked with did not speak English. Six- teen credit hours were awarded upon completion of our studies.

Professors often cancelled classes because of army recall. All citizens of Israel — men and women — train in the army from age 18 to 21 and are thereafter on call.

At the day's end, we visited with our families, viewed a movie, par- ticipated in planned cultural events, or spent some time at the coffee bar.

Any full-time college student is eligible for the program, spon- sored by Kibbutz Aliyah Desk, a referral agency based in New York, in cooperation with Haifa University.

Since December, 1970, 125 Northeastern students have gone to Israel on this experimental co- op plan, according to Assistant Professor Stephen Kane, coor- dinator of the program.

The total cost of the program is

Five years ago, if someone told you you'd be living in a room high atop the Huntington Ave. YMCA, what would your reaction have been?

In 1977 that question became a reality as 150 NU students found themselves moving into one of the many "attempts" to house the overload of resident students.

The recent increase in the Uni- versity's undergraduate enrollment necessitated the acquisition of more living space for its students. In 1972 NU could conceivably house 2,700 students . . . in 1977 that figure increased by 600 to 3,300 students housed in the school's 14 dormitories and 13 apartment buildings.

The largest dorm on campus is Stetson East, which is an all- women dorm with the capacity to house 400 students. Speare Hall can accommodate 388 residents, while Stetson West houses 384 and White Hall can house 361 .

Five years ago, NU owned six small dorms: three on Hemenway St., and Smith, Melvin and Light Halls.

Aside from the dorms, NU also rents apartments.

The most well-known ones, as well as the most easily accessible, are the apartments at 106-122 St. Stephen St. These apartments can house 220 students, and all are co- ed. One Symphony Road and the apartments at 23, 25 and 27 St. Stephen St. are also university- rented.

Even with the dorms and apart- ments, NU still found they did not have enough space to accommo- date the influx of students, so they acquired apartments at 40 Evans Way, 96 The Fenway (Kerr Hall) and 407 Huntington Ave.

Several apartment buildings on Hemenway St. were acquired and completely renovated, and in 1976 they opened their doors to 99 NU male students.

Additional apartments on Hunt- ington Ave. were added, and in 1977 NU began renting rooms in the neighboring YMCA.

Most of the university's dormito- ries are comprised of double units, although most do have a few sin- gles. Apartments rented to NU stu- dents by the school contain no more than four students per unit.

The four major dorms have cafe- terias, and those students living at dorms without cats eat at one of the other dorms.

Over the past few years the cost of living, and, in turn, the cost of university-operated dorms and apartments have increased.

A room in Speare Hall cost $500 at one time. The same room in 1977 cost $700. Smith, White, Light and Melvin Halls have increased by 25% over the past five years. The apartments at 115, 1 1 9 and 1 53 Hemenway St. have had the lowest increase of 23%.

Co-ed living quarters made their appearance favorably on the NU campus with Smith Hall, an upperclass dorm, the first to become co-ed. Men and women are placed on a room-to-room basis. Floors are designated by sex.

Speare Hall, traditionally a female dorm, went co-ed approxi- mately four years ago. Men were placed on the right wing and women on the left. Shortly there- after, they went co-ed by floors. White Hall started out as a male dorm, then went co-ed by wings, and like Speare is now co-ed by floors.

Stetson Hall West, a female

dorm, and 1 57 and 1 63 Hemenway St., traditionally men's dorms, turned co-ed in 1977.

The rooms in the YMCA are co- ed as well, with male transfer stu- jdents on the sixth floor and female [transfers on the seventh. I Renovations have occurred fre- quently in the past five years. The apartments at 157 and 163 Hemenway were completely reno- vated before opening in the fall of 1976. Rubenstein Hall was remod- eled and opened in the fall of 1 977. The St. Stephen St. apartments ere all undergoing renovation, at ithe rate of one building per year. (Other dorms are slated for renova- tion in the spring of 1 978.

What these statistics don't show is the type of atmosphere found in university dorms and apartments. [Meeting new people, forming last- ing relationships and friendships, land learning and'experiencing new things are all an important part of jorm life.

Activities are always scheduled or dorm students, and freshmen ind things a bit easier to make the ransition from being uprooted rom their homes and landing in a strange, new environment.

Mixers, dances, discos and cof- eehouses are all an integral part of ife in the dorms. For the student A/ith nothing to do on weekends, here's always something planned n the form of entertainment whether it's a movie or a dance. All activities are well-policed, which also means that a student I.D. is

necessary for most of these func- tions.

Life in an NU dorm or apartment affords students the opportunity to learn about the dorm, their room- mate, and very often about them- selves.

If you've ever needed an aspirin in a hurry, you should know, after five years at Northeastern, that the time to go to health services is NOT during activities periods, lunch- time, or finals week. For Northeast- ern's Lane Health Center, these are the busiest — and most crowded periods.

According to Dr. Job Fuchs, director of the health services, the most predominant ailment is that of upper respiratory, but during finals and midterms weeks, "anxiety and tension are most common . . . most students know what the prob- lem is and what caused it," Dr. Fuchs said.

The Health Services facilities, located on Forsyth St., can handle mostly anything, and, according to Dr. Fuchs, those students they cannot accommodate will be refer- red elsewhere for treatment.

The infirmary is not affiliated with any other school or hospital, but the doctors themselves are, which is why a patient may be referred to the Deaconess, the Beth Israel, University Hospital, or a number of other hospitals in the Boston area.

Health Services is comprised of 14 doctors, 16 nurses and nine technicians. A gynecologist, a sur- geon, laboratory and x-ray techni- cians, as well as athletic trainers, are employed by the Center.

In 1973, if an NU freshman wanted to receive a method of birth control, she would not have been able to get it through Northeastern. But, according to Dr. Fuchs, four years ago the Supreme Court passed a decision on birth control for minors, and shortly thereafter, the NU GYN/birth control clinic was started. As a result, the univer- sity's bacteriological facilities was expanded.

The Center employs four athletic trainers to rehabilitate patients after injuries and to assist in neurologi- cal and muscular problems (which students usually had before they entered Northeastern, Dr. Fuchs said).

In the past five years, several changes have occurred within the health services.

In 1975, Dr. George Lane retired as director of Health Services, and

left Northeastern after creating the facility that exists today. A year later, the Health Services was renamed the George M. Lane Health Center.

The facilities themselves also experienced some changes . . . The psycho-therapy department has been expanded, as has the laboratory. The Center can now accommodate more clinical work, according to Dr. Fuchs.

Dr. Fuchs has two associates who assist in keeping the health services running smoothly.

Dr. John A. Spargo is Chief of Mental Health; Dr. Elliot Bresnick is Chief of Medicine.

Northeastern nursing, lab tech- nology, medical records and other students may opt to co-op at the health services.

Dr. Fuchs says that Northeastern will also be conducting a heart study in the future.

But for now, if you've got a headache during finals week, bring a book along ... it may be a long wait!

Profile DR. JOB FUCHS

For Dr. Job Fuchs, an average day is not 24 hours long . . . it's longer. Because Dr. Fuchs, director of NU's Lane Health Services, always seems to be where he's needed most, no matter what time of day or night.

Dr. Fuchs says he has received the most satisfaction from "caring for people, taking care of their problems, getting to know them, getting to be part of their lives, and getting to know their families."

His "caring" attitude is one of the things that made him a natural choice to succeed George M. Lane as director of Health Services.

In addition to his position at NU, Dr. Fuchs, a 1944 graduate of the Boston University School of Medicine (BUSM), is an assistant clinical professor of medicine at BU as well as secretary of the BUSM Alumni Associa- tion.

All this takes time, and time is Dr. Fuch's most pre- cious commodity. As internist and teacher, he needs time to heal, instruct and fulfill what has become the Fuchs trademark — treatment of the whole patient.

Even more than for his super-human schedule, Dr. Fuchs is respected by his colleagues for his devotion to his patients.

According to Dr. Fuchs, medicine today is oriented to "treatment of disease and people." This, he thinks, "is responsible for a lot of dissatisfaction with American medicine."

In addition to his duties as director and administrator, Dr. Fuchs has practiced as an industrial and school doctor. Among the positions he has held are physician at Smithcraft Corp., assistant physician at the Gillette Co., school physician at Andover-Newton Theological School, and, until appointment to his new post, director and chief of medicine at NU.

Dr. Fuchs has been described by many as a man who has the ability to empathize, sympathize and listen to people.

He also travels with NU's football team as team phy- sician, following an interest that arose from being born into a sports family. His father, the late Judge Emil Fuchs, was at one time owner of the old Boston Braves baseball team.

Each year, Dr. Fuchs and his brother, Atty. Robert Fuchs, present the Judge Emil Fuchs Award at the Bos- ton Baseball Writers Banquet.

Job Fuchs, M.D.

Dr. Fuchs says that students are a hard group to take care of because "they have a lot of reserve and often do not show symptoms until they are pretty far along." When they do come to the infirmary, he said, they expect "an instant cure."

Having devoted himself to medicine for 34 years, Dr. Fuchs said he went into medicine to "help people — and things haven't changed."

Many services including x-rays, physiotherapy and blood analyses can be performed on campus in the Lane Health Center.

Throughout the sixties and seventies, crime has been an important issue in our environment. Politicians used crime, both as an issue and as a means, to get elected to public oftice. Television used crime shows to bolster ratings. Poll after poll showed Americans becoming more afraid to walk the streets at night. And when the class of 1978 first came onto campus they were greeted with warnings to stay away from certain Boston neighborhoods and offers of martial arts train- ing from the National Organization for Women.

Northeastern University includes two police districts that consistently report the city's highest crime rates year after year. Until recently, NU depended mostly on the Boston Police and a small security force on cam- pus. When D. Joseph Griffin, head of the campus Pub- lic Safety Division, came onto campus in 1974, he found what he termed "a department that was some- what floundering . . . with lack of leadership . . . apart from, rather than a part of" the campus community. The campus police, rather than campus crimes, were Griffin's major problems.

In the fall of 1973, a Black freshman was arrested after an incident in the Ell Center Cafeteria. The student was charged with assaulting an officer. However, the student alleged that he, rather than the officer, was the one assaulted.

Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), in one of its last political acts on campus, jumped into the issue, accusing the campus security force with racism in their handling of the situation. They started a campaign to "disarm the campus cops," triggering a counter-cam- paign by the police officers' union, the appointment of two independent agencies to investigate the security force and report to the administration, and the forma- tion of a student/faculty "blue ribbon committee" to do the same thing. The NU News editorialized about the lack of access to information about the real level of campus crime and SDS continued to pass out litera- ture. The police officers' union struck when, it alleged, one of the independent agencies blamed officers for part of the actual crime on campus.

When the smoke cleared, Griffin was brought in from the University of Connecticut where he was security chief. He set out to raise hiring standards, to institute a four-week training program at the State Police Acad- emy, to split the force into unarmed security guards and armed guards, to better train campus police offi- cers and to create a community relations program. The public image of the force was uppermost in his mind.

"Every officer is a PR person," he said. "He's out there in the public view and his actions in the street are PR."

Bob Gray, 75 CJ, joined the force after graduating is a community relations officer. He developed and upervised a juvenile outreach program to counsel oung people accused of crime on campus, and see hem through the court process and then to help them idjust to the outside world. He also supervised tutoring ind camping programs for children living in the cam- lusarea.

According to Griffin, 83% of the force now have achelor degrees or better, compared with only one erson before the reorganization. The average age of ne force is decreasing and the force is not that far 9moved in personality and experience from the stu- ent body it protects, which Griffin thinks is a major jsset.

j By the end of 1975, Griffin reported in the NU News nat while crime in the area was still high, the campus rime rate was low. Still, he couldn't cite statistics fecause the force had just begun to keep records. The /eekly "Crime Log" series in the News was instituted d report and inform students of campus crimes.

"Eighty to ninety percent of the crimes on campus re simple larcenies due to negligence," Griffin said. The most common occurrence is someone falling isleep in the Ell Center and finding money missing from i wallet or pocketbook. ' '

i He said the emphasis is on crime prevention, which i much cheaper and easier than trying to recover the Materials after a crime. Campus police visability and tudent attention are the two key parts to that cam- laign.

i In March of 1975, the first female officer was hired, jlow there are three. They receive the same training as jther officers and do the same jobs. However, the j/ews reported that most of the duties of campus police re service-oriented and physical confrontation is rare.

"It doesn't have to be a man's job," officer Debbie

Boiko was quoted as saying in the News.

The campus crime picture over the last few years has not always been a calm one, though. In December 1 976, the campus was shocked by the murder of edu- cation professor Andre Favat. Reports indicate that the body may have been pushed off a six-story building in the Mission Hill housing project just a few yards from campus. Police theorize, though, that Favat was not murdered, but rather that he was killed by a man he picked up in a downtown bar.

The desegregation of the Boston schools, while pro- ducing more excitement than crime on campus, was the backdrop for an unusual vandalism case. Paintings by NU artist-in-residence Dana Chandler depicting rac- ist violence at Boston City Hall were marked and gouged with "KKK" painted on them. President Ken- neth Ryder bought the damaged paintings for NU's permanent collection, saying the vandalism "in a strange way is an integral part of the event. It shows a pervasive hatred trying to poison the whole society."

The University has undergone many changes in the past five years. D. Joseph Griffin was one of these changes. And, whereas, in 1973 most NU freshmen saw the campus police as detached from the student population, in 1978, students view these men and women as visible and important components of the NU community.

A freshman was complaining about the register lines in the book- store during the first week of the fall 1977 term. "Why, I've been here twenty minutes!"

Ha — he hasn't seen anything. When the students of the class of 1978 were freshmen, waits of 45 minutes were common . . . and that was outside the store. After getting in, you could expect to wait an average of 45 minutes to an hour to plunk down your summer savings for the term's required reading. A trip to the bookstore was a project slated for your first free three to five hour stretch dur- ing the first week of classes.

Some freshmen found only one line necessary — the line into the now-defunct freshman bookstore. But some needed to stand in line for both stores, waiting with the rest of the school for their chance to purchase some of the nearly 9,000 textbooks.

A summer 1976 renovation added 624 square feet and six more cash registers and cut the waiting time during the rush by at least half, according to manager Richard Maloney. He said the ren- ovation made the store more effi-

cient by stretching shelves length- wise down the store rather than the previous widthwise set-up. Lockers and a guarded foyer for books inside the store lessened the chances of students being ripped off, and made campus police sur- veillance of the store more effec- tive.

Even with the reduction of wait- ing time, most of us go to the book- store at the wrong time, Maloney said. "You can have the store to yourselves at 3:00 p.m. on registra- tion day, but by the first day of classes, the part-time bookstore employees have classes, and that leaves the bookstore under- staffed," Maloney said.

Despite its name, the bookstore sells many different items, ranging from calculators, rackets and racket balls, to stuffed husky dogs, memo boards and NU beanies. The widest selling item after books are supplies, including pens, pen- cils and notebooks. The largest selling non-study item is the North- eastern T-shirt. "Everyone wants to identify themselves with the Uni- versity," Maloney said.

Amid student protests of price gouging and a Student Federation

investigation of the store's accounts, Maloney said the book- store does not make a profit. He> said that the publisher sets thei price on a book, and sells the book I to the store for a 20% profit. The < 20% the bookstore makes goes back to the university to help pay for overhead costs.

Even the rows and rows of non- required items, which get a normal retail mark-up, do not make a profit for the store. A November 3, 1977, NU News quoted Daniel Roberts, , vice president of business, as say- ing that part of the University's $60 million operating budget was sup- ported by the bookstore's $3 mil- 1 lion gross revenues. "That figure < pays utilities, salaries and other overhead costs' of the bookstore and other parts of the University," Maloney said.

Many changes have taken place since the 1950's, when freshmen lined up, told clerks their major, and were handed a pre-packaged set of books. But the bookstore will remain fixed in the memory of the class of 1 978 long after the books they bought go out of date.

Dr. Harlan Lane, left, chairman of Psychology Department, discusses his trip to Africa to study John, the jungle boy of Burundi.

Five years at Northeastern . . . what are the things we most remember? We remember cooler classrooms to conserve energy . . . reduced light- ing and closed buildings . . . taculty debates on unionization . . . streaking . . . student tederation joining Mass. Student Lobby . . . White and Speare Halls becoming co-ed . . . President Ryder's inauguration . . . campus renovations . . . torced carpooling . . . tuition increases.

Since the tall of 1973 when we entered NU, we have seen the university go through numerous changes, ranging from a new president to sit-ins.

In 1 973, NU celebrated its diamond anniversary. From its beginning in 1898 as a small engineering school housed within the YMCA, to 1973, when NU boasted of being the largest private university in the country, many events have occurred. Today our urban campus is adjacent to the YMCA, which has, in part, been turned into a Northeastern dorm. How's that for progress?

When we were freshmen, President Asa Knowles attended a four-day Anglo-American conference on higher education, where he lec- tured on the values of a cooperative education program. He was also the key-note speaker at the Natural and Human Resources Conference in Israel. NU and its non-traditional style of coopera- tive education gained world recognition through the efforts of Knowles and other NU administra- tors.

NU students staged a sit-in at the Boston Globe plant in Dorchester for what they termed "racist coverage of recent events in the city," and Dick Gregory, entertainer and political activist, called for the youth of America to save the country.

One hundred thousand dollars worth of new fur- niture for the Carl S. Ell student center lounge and the start of construction on the Mugar Life Science

Building's addition gave the university a much- needed face lift.

One of the major highlights of 1 974, and indeed, of our lifetime at NU, was the appointment and inauguration of Kenneth G. Ryder as NU president. Ryder, as the fifth president of the university, suc- ceeded Asa Knowles, and assumed his new posi- tion on July 1 with a call for academic upgrading in the years to come. It took the Board of Trustees over a year to finally select a new president. After seventeen years of service, Asa Knowles stepped down to become NU's chancellor.

In February, the NU faculty asked the Board of Trustees for a 16.4% salary increase, and was granted a 6% hike in March. Salaries increased . . . costs increased . . . enrollment increased.

The removal of centrex telephones from dormi- tories was one of the grievances which prompted a sit-in in Dean Christopher Kennedy's office by 300 black students. The university administration was charged with not developing areas that articulate the concern of black people.

As a repercussion of the energy crunch, the Environmental Protection Agency asked for man- datory carpooling for Northeastern commuters. The NU community responded angrily, but, never- theless, the policy was instituted.

After two years of debate, the NU Rathskellar was approved and was slated to be built at the southern end of the student cafeteria. The main question was whether or not bringing beer onto campus would be profitable. The neighboring Cask and Flagon began to receive stiff competi- tion, as NU students found their own Rathskellar a more accessible place to have a few beers in between classes.

A proposed Massachusetts Meal Tax to be lev- ied on dormitories and cafeterias was enacted into

law, despite Governor Michael Dukakis's promise that it would not be, and created dismay among resident students.

Gary Goshgarian, associate professor of Eng- lish (or Captain Gary, as he is better known to his sci-fi following) was denied tenure. He appealed the decision, and after a fight that lasted a year and a half, the decision was reversed.

Northeastern, along with several other area schools, became involved in the controversial Phase II desegregation plan. The plan was designed to improve the quality of education in Boston schools and was studied by prominent members of the Northeastern community. The end result was that NU began to share facilities with Madison Park High School.

The National Student Conference Against Rac- ism was held at NU in October 1975. The confer- ence's purpose was to understand and destroy racism around the school as well as around the world.

Dr. Harlan Lane, chairman of the NU Psychol- ogy Department, travelled to Africa to research a case study he was doing on John, the jungle boy of Burundi. The boy was found in the Spring of 1976.

In the summer of 1976, Stearns Hall, the new cooperative education building, located on Hunt- ington Ave., opened its doors for the first time. The building turned out to be 40% smaller than origi- nally planned due to economic difficulties. The proposed $5 million structure became a $2 million actuality.

The 1976-77 academic year began with a trag- edy at the university. English professor F. Andre Favat was killed and allegedly thrown off of a build- ing in Roxbury. The incident prompted the North- eastern News to print a special edition on the slay- ing. The editors of that edition received the Sigma

Delta chi award for excellence in reporting.

NU hosted the annual convention of the Society of Professional Journalists, Sigma Delta Chi, in April, 1977. The conference focused on problems and events concerning the journalism community.

In May, the university announced plans to spend $1 million to enlarge Dodge Library. The funding would also include the purchase of new books and materials to improve the library's efficiency.

NU lost its lease with the Oakwood apartment complexes in Washington and New York because of alleged vandalism by NU students. The apart- ments had been used for co-op housing in those cities. Recently, however, these dwellings have been made available to NU students on an individ- ual contract basis. Dean of Cooperative Education Paul Pratt said: "If the students who are down there now behave themselves the university might be able to regain the contract for the apartments in the spring of 1979."

In the fall of 1977, NU joined forces with the Huntington Ave. YMCA and began renting rooms on the top floors of the building. NU supplied its own security system for the residents.

The Department of Health, Education and Wel- fare loaned the university $5.4 million for construc- tion of a new apartment complex and improvement of existing dorms. The new complex, to be built at a cost of $4.8 million, is scheduled to be ready for occupancy in the fall of 1979. The complex's site is yet undetermined.

A black-out in October hit a 40-block area of the Back Bay, including the NU campus. Organized pandemonium was the word for the night, as stu- dents took advantage of the lack of lights to con- veniently forget about studying for an 8:00 a.m. exam.

Carl S. Ell, the second president of the Univer-

THIS LOT IS FULL

sity, celebrated his 90th birthday in November of 1977. A party was given in his honor in the Frost Lounge of the Ell Center as Dr. Ell was greeted by hundreds of present and former NU students and colleagues.

Over the past year, several NU administrators have either moved on within the university or have taken posts at other places.

Alan Mackey, dean of Administrative Services, temporarily relinquished his title in June of 1 977 to become Massachusetts Registrar of Motor Vehi- cles. He will remain the registrar as long as Michael Dukakis remains Governor. Mackey will then return to NU, however not necessarily in the same

position he left.

Five years at NU went by quickly for some . . . and seemed endless to others. But through all the good and bad times, students became more involved with their university, and the student body became one that was listened to more than ever.

While the major concern of an NU freshman in 1973 was where to pick up a missing reg- istration packet, events in the world surmounted those of any student.

In 1973, the new year began with United States leaders con- tinuing to search for peace with Vietnam by opening a fresh round of peace talks with the North Vietnamese.

A 36-hour cease-fire in cele- bration of the new year ended with the U.S. resuming attacks on North Vietnam, but the attacks were short-lived, as rep- resentatives from both countries reached a favorable agreement at peace talks in Paris, initiated by U.S.'s Henry Kissinger. The agreement called for halting of all bombing, shelling and mining of Vietnam. In addition, U.S. prisoners-of-war were to be flown out of Hanoi at 15-day intervals for 60 days following the cease-fire. With the signing of the agreement, 12 years of war, four years of peace talks,

and the military draft in the U.S. came to an end.

The after-effects of what came to be known simply as "Watergate" were carried over to 1973, with several White House officials being sentenced to prison terms. G. Gordon Liddy, said to be the master- mind of the burglary and bug- ging of the Democratic Head- quarters in June of 1972, was sentenced to up to 20 years in prison and fined $40,000. Five other Watergate conspirators received provisional sentences.

According to a story in the Washington Post in mid-April, presidential aide Jeb Stuart Magruder, former attorney-gen- eral John Mitchell, and White House counsel John Dean III were named as planners in the Watergate conspiracy.

Shortly thereafter, President Nixon said he would assume full responsibility for the bugging, and named Archibald Cox as special Watergate prosecutor.

Three of Nixon's top aides

resigned: Chief of Staff H. R. Haldeman, domestic affairs assistant John Ehrlichman, and John Dean.

Watergate hearings began on May 17, and several days later, Nixon disclosed that he had made legitimate efforts to restrict investigation into some matters of the Watergate affair because they impinged on national security.

In June, Communist party leader Leonid Breshnev visited the U.S., and that visit resulted in the signing of nine agree- ments between the two coun- tries. One of the agreements obligated both the U.S. and Russia to enter into immediate consultations should the threat of a nuclear attack arise.

In October of 1 973, the fourth and largest Arab-Israeli war in 25 years began along the Suez Canal, while Syrian forces attacked the Golan Heights.

The United Nations then called for a cease-fire, and the war was ended on October 24.

While war raged in the mid-East, however, the U.S. was suffering domestic problems. Vice President Spiro T. Agnew resigned, pleading "nolo contend- ere" to charges of tax evasion on payments made to him by Maryland contractors. Attorney General Elliott Richardson resigned soon after, while his deputy, William Rucklehaus, and Watergate spe- cial prosecutor Archibald Cox were fired by Presi- dent Nixon. Leon Jaworski, a conservative Texas democrat, was appointed by the Nixon administra- tion to replace Cox. Cox's firing was later ruled to be illegal by a Washington, D.C. federal court.

But Watergate and its problems lingered on into 1974, when a panel of experts reported to Judge John J. Sirica that an 1 81/2-minute gap on a tape of a conversation between H. R. Haldeman and Nixon had been caused by at least five separate erasures and rerecordings.

The public interest rested momentarily from Watergate when Patricia Hearst, the 19-year-old granddaughter of the late newspaper publisher William Randolph Hearst, was kidnapped from her Berkeley, California apartment by a group con- nected with the Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA).

After several months, six members of the SLA were killed in a shootout with Los Angeles police. Hearst remained in contact with her family via tapes and telephone recordings. It was then dis- closed that she had allegedly "willingly" joined her abductors in their cause. She was involved in a bank robbery, and tapes revealed that she knew what she was doing at all times; that she had not been brainwashed.

On September 18, 1975, Patty Hearst was arrested and prosecuted for her part in the bank robbery, among other charges.

Boston attorney F. Lee Bailey was flown in to

defend Hearst, and after a lengthy trial, she was found guilty of armed robbery and use of a gun to commit a felony. The decision was appealed and she was released on bail.

Watergate took a spot in the limelight once more. In what was reported to be the first such action against a president of the United States, Richard Nixon was subpoenaed to turn over tapes and other presidential materials relating to 42 White House conversations. Nixon, in a nation- wide television address, stated that he would release over 1 ,000 pages of edited tape transcripts of Watergate-related conversations. Nixon was told by the House Judiciary Committee that the transcripts could not be submitted in place of the actual tapes.

The House Judiciary Committee opened hear- ings in May of 1974 to decide whether or not to begin impeachment proceedings against Nixon.

In August, Richard Milhous Nixon resigned. Vice President Gerald R. Ford was sworn in as presi- dent, and Ford then nominated former New York Governor Nelson Rockefeller as his vice president.

One of Ford's first official acts as president was to unconditionally pardon ex-president Nixon for all federal crimes that he "committed or may have committed."

Early in 1 976 the 1 2th winter Olympics began in Innesbruck, Austria, with 1054 athletes from 37 nations competing.

Former president Nixon began an eight-day visit to China at the invitation of the Chinese govern- ment.

Great Britain's prime minister Harold Wilson resigned, and James Callaghan became his suc- cessor.

An epidemic of swine flu rocked the United States in April, and $135 million was appropriated

by Congress for a national immunization program against an anticipated outbreak of that flu.

One thousand people died after an earthquake measuring 6.5 on the Richter scale hit northern Italy, destroying buildings and leveling entire towns.

French President Valerie Giscard d'Estaing made an official visit to the United States in honor of the nation's 200th birthday. He arrived on the supersonic jet Concorde.

June of 1 976 found Jimmy Carter, former Geor- gia governor and peanut farmer, winning the Ohio Democratic presidential primary, which nearly assured him a nomination on the first ballot at the party convention in July. President Ford also won the Ohio presidential primary, but lost to his oppo- nent Ronald Reagan in the California primary.

On July 4, the U.S. celebrated its long-awaited bicentennial birthday with pageantry, parades, pic- nics and fireworks all over the country, while mil- lions watched the Tall Ships pass on the Hudson River.

Jimmy Carter was elected President of the United States on November 2, and announced that Cyrus Vance, former secretary of defense during the Johnson administration, would become secre- tary of state.

A few days before Christmas, the Liberian tanker "Argo Merchant" split in half after running aground near Nantucket Island, spilling 7.5 mil- lions of gallons of crude oil into the North Atlantic.

The U.S.'s first execution in a decade was car- ried out just after sunrise on the morning of Janu- ary 17, when Gary Gilmore was shot to death by a firing squad.

Jimmy Carter assumed the presidency on Janu- ary 20 in a brief ceremony, and then walked 1 .2 miles from the Capitol to the White House with his

wife and daughter. His first act as president was a "full and unconditional pardon for Vietnam draft resistors."

President Carter addressed the Massachusetts town of Clinton in March, and in May former presi- dent Richard Nixon appeared on national televi- sion in the first of a four-part interview series with British celebrity David Frost. It was at this time that Nixon discussed his administration and denied covering up Watergate, although he admitted that he brought about his own downfall.

Nuclear power became a controversial issue in May, and at that time, more than 1 ,000 persons were arrested for demonstrating against a pro- posed plant in Seabrook, N.H. Many of those arrested refused bail and were kept in National Guard armories.

The final chapter of the Watergate saga drew to a close in early June when John Mitchell and H. R. Haldeman were ordered to prison for their part in the Watergate cover-up. The sentencing came nearly five years to the day of the break-in of the Democratic National Headquarters.

In mid-July, New York City was plunged into darkness for nearly 24 hours, affecting nearly nine million residents. Nearly 2,000 people were arrested for looting and vandalism throughout the city.

In August, New York City police began their intensive search for "Son of Sam," a psychopathic killer who had shot 13 persons within a year. The killer had struck in the "lover's lane" sections of the Bronx and Queens. On August 1 1 , 24-year-old David Berkowitz was charged as being the slayer. He was tracked down through a parking ticket he received on the night of his last murder.

The world was saddened by several deaths in 1977. On August 17, Elvis Presley, the "King of

«p

*

Rock and Roll," died at the age of 42 of an irregu- lar heartbeat. Groucho Marx died three days later, followed by Bing Crosby.

Some students were affected dramatically by world events; others hardly touched base with what was happening. Some Northeastern students protested vehemently against what they felt was wrong . . . and others STILL did not know what

was going on.

But, through it all, yesterday's naive student became today's aggressive, individual, and paved the way for tomorrow's graduate.

Northeastern's diversified aca- demic program is not all that com- prises the nucleus ot this univer- sity. Believe it or not, the two hours set aside each week for stu- dent activities was not meant for a snooze between classes.

Approximately $200,000 is allo- cated annually and divided among 70 student organizations on cam- pus — including groups and clubs which satisfy almost any desire. Situated in the Ell Student Center are offices which house head- quarters for most student activi- ties.

Ethnic-related clubs offer hom- age to those students who are thousands of miles from home. It gives them a place to be with old friends and to share their culture with new friends.

Special groups are organized as mouthpieces for various student minorities. This gives them the opportunity to voice their opinion and to make themselves and their ideas known.

The hobbyist is in his glory . . . with such groups as the Chess Club, Photography Club, Folk Club and the Amateur Radio Club to mention a few. It is a great way to make new friends (with com- mon interests built right in!).

And the sports enthusiast is able to take advantage of outings and get-togethers for every season. The Underwater Society, the Huskiers and Sport Parachuters are a few clubs geared toward active students who can find time between books and exams to enjoy a little time to relax.

Major-related organizations such as the American Pharmacy Association and the American Society for Civil Engineering, give students the chance to utilize their education and to sponsor projects in their particular field. Guest speakers not only enlighten the club members but by inviting the general public, admission fees help make the club a little more self-sufficient.

Four publications on campus allow the creative student to express himself. The Spectrum, Onyx, Cauldron and the NU News are great in-house organs for sharing an idea or an art such as poetry or fiction. WRBB is there for a good song, the news and a fre- quent editorial!

Student activities, over the past five years, have afforded the stu- dent body of Northeastern Univer- sity a great opportunity for stu- dents to express themselves in many different areas. Friendships were molded, hobbies were shared, ideas were exchanged and textbooks were put aside for those few hours per week where sanity could be found and where memories were conceived . . .

THE SNOW.

It was pretty at first. The snow began to fall slowly, gently, smoothly. It covered the sidewalks, the streets and the cars. It started to snow heavily, covering buses, people, dogs and houses.

The Blizzard of the Century, from February 6-7, 1 978, will never be forgotten by anyone. A record snowfall, record wind gusts, record amount of damage . . . and a record amount of snow to shovel . . . these were a few of the highlights of the storm.

Northeastern cancelled classes from Monday afternoon (Feb. 6) through Friday (Feb. 10). Dorms and apartments had intermittent hot water and electricity. The Cask and Punters were visited frequently during the week.

And while the eastern half of Massachusetts, especially her coastal towns, was being ravaged, Northeastern 's resident students were studying, playing cards, shoveling their cars out and getting to know their neighbors.

No, the Blizzard of the Century can never slip the minds of Northeastern students. The Quad was thick with snow up to the level of the benches. Strangely though, with all the snow, only one snow sculpture was attempted during Winter Carnival week.

Even by the middle of March, the Columbus Avenue parking lot was still piled high with the snow accumulated from the other Northeastern parking lots.

And to think . . . when summer comes around we'll all be wishing for snow . . .

WOMEN'S ATHLETICS: HIGH-QUALITY EXPERIENCE

Women participating in athletics at Northeastern will be given a high-quality experience in established activi- ties, according to Jeanne Rowlands, women's athletic director and basketball coach.

The goal ot the program is "the achievement ot a high-quality experience for student athletes in those activities already operative, before we consider expanding," Rowlands explained.

She has directed the women's athletic program for the past three years. During that time, she says the pro- gram has grown in breadth and quality. "In terms of providing services, we are trying to upgrade the pro- gram rather than expand it," she said.

Rowlands said that three years ago, not every team even had uniforms, nor did they have practice uniforms and laundering facilities. "We also were not providing some equipment," she said.

This year, the women in varsity sports have the nec- essary equipment, uniforms and laundry. Varsity ath- letes may now also be engaged in a road schedule, which requires that they stay overnight. Rowlands said that a schedule incorporating overnight stays is more competitive because it allows the athletes a wider radius in which to get competition.

The women's athletic department currently offers six activities: gymnastics, basketball and lacrosse on a var- sity status, crew, which will attain varsity status in the near future, and swimming.

The potential number of participants is kept in mind when a sport is being offered, Rowlands explained. "We are always looking at how many students are being serviced. We want to be sure we are offering something of interest to a large number of students.

The athletic head said that Northeastern does not approach its women's programs in the traditional way,

which she said is the method of getting a faculty, coaches, a schedule and THEN finding athletes. Rather, NU waits for the athletes before obtaining the other necessary ingredients.

"We do not decide what activities to include," Row- lands said. "We want the students to show us what they are interested in. It's their responsibility to demon- strate their interests to us."

One example of a sport looking for athletes before requesting varsity status is the track team. Rowlands said, "They ought to be able to have enough women to make it go. We operate on the basis that some women want to run track. They will show us they want to run track, and eventually the team will be a varsity one."

Other groups must also go through this apprentice- ship before attaining varsity status. The softball club and the swimming club are examples.

Northeastern does not offer financial aid on the basis of athletics over need to any woman athlete, according to Rowlands.

"No student receives any money over need," she said. However, some athletes receive financial aid for financial need. No woman athlete is given work-study.

Coaches of each varsity team submit names of their outstanding players and these women are sent finan- cial aid forms by the athletic department, Rowlands said.

In addition to not granting financial aid on the basis of athletic ability, the University's women's athletic pro- gram does not actively recruit participants. "The coaches are full-time members who work on release time to coach," Rowlands added.

VOLLEYBALL: TEAM TOGETHERNESS

VOLLEYBALL: Front: Coach Diane Willcox, Val Viles, Pat Evans, Elaine Lacourse. Back: Paula Sterite, Marie Usseglio, Lynn Arturi.

Despite a desire to play volleyball, lack of team expe- rience caused the women's volleyball team to finish the 1977 season with its poorest win-loss record in Diane Willcox's three years of coaching. The volleyball Husk- ies compiled a 3-12 record, its victories coming over Boston State College, Wheaton College and St. Regis College.

However, Willcox said the varsity squad was "a very inexperienced team," averaging only two years of play- ing experience. Senior captain Vickie Mendes was the team veteran, having played varsity volleyball for four years. Willcox said, "With the exception of three kids, the rest had never really played as a group. This was new to them."

According to Coach Willcox, the athletes' biggest asset was that "they worked together very well. They were supportive of one another . . . there was good team togetherness."

Assessing her players individually, she said she was pleased with the all-around performance of captain Vickie Mendes, especially in her relationship with the players. "Vickie was an excellent captain. She had a

good rapport with the team and me. She was a good liaison."

Willcox noted the consistent play and potential of Valerie Viles, Elaine Lacourse, Pat Evans, Lynne Tabor and Marie Usseglio. "Paula Sterite has a good sense of timing on offense," she said. "Freshman Kathy Malone is an outstanding setter and freshman Cathy Krawee is developing a strong serve," Willcox added.

The most memorable part of the season for Willcox was the tri-match against the University of Massachu- setts and MIT.

"The U. Mass match was very close ... we lost it in the third game. MIT is one of the strongest teams in the area. We played very well defensively against them," she said.

Tri-matches are a series of best-of-three games against two schools. Willcox explained the purpose of playing a tri-match rather than playing a single oppo- nent. ' 'A team may travel a long distance and the match may be over in 15 minutes. Tri-matches make travel time reasonable so you don't travel a long time and play very little."

She added that intercollegiate volleyball is moving away trom tri-matches and is instituting a best three-of- tive game match.

Volleyball has sophisticated ottensive patterns, simi- lar to other team sports. The Huskies used a 6-2 and later a 5-1 ottense.

"A 6-2 offense employs two setters, with all six play- ers on the floor capable of spiking," Willcox said. "On the other hand, a 5-1 offensive formation consists of one setter. She rotates to the front when she is in the back line," Willcox explained. The other five players are spikers. Willcox said the team used the 5-1 set-up for most of the season with Kathy Malone as the setter.

The team played its home games in Dockser Hall. Coach Willcox said the games "were not well-attended, but the fans that did come told me the game was more exciting than they expected. They said it was a con- sciousness raising thing. They didn't think Volleyball was as exciting and fast-moving."

Unlike Northeastern, some schools have a large attendance for their games, and Willcox said playing before a crowd is distracting if the team isn't accus- tomed to it. She remembered a tri-match at Eastern Nazarene where the Huskies were to play URI.

"The gym was packed for the Eastern Nazarene game. If that many spectators had stayed for the URI game, it would have had an effect," she said.

She recalled another match where many spectators were seated close to the court, saying it was distracting to the players.

This past fall was the final season for Diane Willcox as coach of the women's volleyball team. She called her three years as coach a "learning experience" and paid tribute to the athletes she directed for those three seasons.

"This was a fine group of women I've worked with and I've enjoyed it. Coaching them was a learning experience for me; hopefully it was also for them."

The varsity team will lose one player for next year's season, Vickie Mendes. Willcox said the team has a lot of potential. Perhaps it will shine through in the future.

SMALL HOOPSTERS, HIGH HOPES

The best-known of the programs ottered by the wom- en's athletic department is basketball, which this year compiled a 9-7 record. Togetherness and improvement were words that characterized the 1 977-78 Huskies.

What the team may have lacked in size, it made up in its ability to work together, Coach Rowlands said. "The girls aren't big and we don't have anybody who can dominate with power and height. So we have to play together because there's no other way to do it," she said.

The women's hoop team showed an improvement over last year's squad, Rowlands said. That improve- ment was evident in two games it played against arch NU rivals Springfield and Southern Connecticut.

"We beat Springfield for the first time in a long while; the last time was in 1973. We haven't beaten Southern Connecticut since 1970, and we lost to them by five points but it was our best effort since 1973," she proudly noted.

"We had a better team than we've had in a long time. Everyone on the team must realize they must make contributions to the team or we won't win."

Three athletes making statistical contributions were

co-captains Beth Peterson (1 8 points per game), Karen Kluttz (12 points per game) and Marie Usseglio (11 points per game).

Of co-captains Beth Peterson and Paula Sterite, Rowlands said, "They were counted on to provide leadership, and they earned the respect of the group. They are the kind of players that other athletes can look up to."

The team's style of play evolved from Rowland's own international coaching experiences. She was a member of the coaching staff in the 1976 summer Olympics at Montreal and also was a oach on a team which trav- eled to Moscow.

"We play a zone offense structure I learned in 1975 in Moscow," she said.

The Huskies played in two post-season tournaments: The State Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women and the AIAW Regional Satellite Tournament. The team lost first-round games in both tournaments, but in both events won the consolation round.

PERFORMANCE IS THEIR KEY OF LIFE

A win-loss record is not necessarily the only indica- tion of a team's success, as gymnastics coach Dorett Hope will attest.

Her team finished with an 8-9 record, yet she is not unhappy with the girls' performances during the sea- son. "I'm not displeased with the season. We haven't had less than a .500 record but once in the past six years."

But there are more important things to a coach than a record. Performance is another importa'nt criterion.

"We've had two injuries to key members of the team. The whole team had to work harder to better their scores. Filling in was a shared responsibility for the whole team," she said.

The injured girls were Pam Davis and Camille Arena. Both were in the vaulting, floor and beam events. Hope said that having all her athletes available and healthy may have made a difference in some meets.

"We were within two or three points of turning some of the losses into wins," she noted. "If we had been in

1978 Women's Gymnastics Team

full force it would have made a difference in the win- loss column."

Without Davis and Arena, Hope said the girls were forced to compete in more events to fill in for their injured colleagues. She said this extra duty "forced better individuals' performances, which is more impor- tant than a win-loss record."

The teamwork of the gymnasts led them to the state tournament in March in Bridgewater, where they placed third, just three points behind the first-place fin- ishers.

The uneven parallel bars was the best event for the NU gymnasts. Four of Coach Hope's athletes placed in the top 12 finishers in the state tournament. The event had 72 entrants.

Carol Lee Anderson represented the NU gymnastic team at the regional tournament, held in March at the University of Pittsburgh. She was awarded this honor because of her performance at the state tournament.

Like some other women's sports at Northeastern, the gymnastics team did not have large turnouts at their home meets, held in the small gym aside the basketball court in Cabot.

Coach Hope attributed that to the student body's being unaware of the team and its meets. "If we had better publicity and more knew about it, we would have had better attendance." She said some meets drew approximately 1 00 people.

"We would like to see more involvement of specta- tors. If they knew about it, they would be here because gymnastics is something that is greatly appreciated."

Next year's team will lose only two members, Pam Davis and Sue Donelly. Hope said the team should be "excellent if that group makes as much progress as this year's did. With added improvement and a couple of good freshmen, it should be an excellent team."

Some critics have likened this year's tootball team to a wheel of fortune ... or a game of roulette. With Coach Robert "Bo" Lyons in the wings, and players like Clark Crowley (who has been the signal caller for most of the last three seasons), and freshmen Bill Pinto and Allan Deary, the team appeared to be in relatively good shape.

The season began with Clark Crowley in control against the University of Rhode Island, leading the Huskies to a 21 -12 win.

Touchdown passes from Crowley to Dan Ross and John Mistowski were the first two scores and line- backer Jim Walsh returned an interception for a touch- down to finalize the score.

While Crowley was in charge, Pinto, who doubles as punter and field goal holder, was successful in his only opportunity. The freshman faked a field goal and ran for a first down to set up the opening score.

The show traveled to Greenvale, New York, for its next contest against C. W. Post.

Crowley continued to control the show, but could only come away with a tie as Post rallied for all its points late in the game to settle a 10-10 tie. The senior quar- terback hit Ross for the Husky touchdown and threw for 230 yards.

Back at home, Boston University came across town for the annual Beanpot game.

Crowley had trouble generating the offense and Lyons let both Pinto and Deary have their chance. The freshmen took turns as each led the Huskies to touch- downs, but it was far from enough as BU romped to a 37-1 5 victory.

The game was not a classic, as there were 14 fum- bles and four interceptions, while a steady rain fell throughout the game.

A week later, the Huskies played American Interna- tional College in Springfield. Crowley was again unable to get the offense going and Lyons brought in Pinto to test his luck.

Pinto ran for one touchdown and passed to Ross for the other, but the Huskies came up short, 21-1 2.

The show stayed on the road the following week, traveling to Southern Connecticut State College in New Haven.

With Crowley and Deary both having good days, the Huskies won their first road game since the 1 974 sea- son, knocking off SCSC, 38-14. Ross was the recipient of the quarterback's fine performance, grabbing seven passes for more than 1 00 yards and two touchdowns.

Walsh ran an interception back for a score for the second time, as the defense showed their ability to put points on the board. The win evened the Huskies record at 2-2-1 .

Homecoming brought Springfield College to Parsons Field for the next game and for the third straight home game it rained.

The trick plays had a variety of results as Springfield won 26-19, stopping the Huskies just short of the goal line on the game's last play.

Crowley passed to Mistowski and Ross for two scores and was on the receiving end of a pass from Curt O'Donnell for the other, but it was Pinto who suf- fered through a horrible day, having only two passes intercepted.

From here on in, the schedule became tougher. First, the Huskies traveled to Durham, N.H., to meet the Uni- versity of New Hampshire. A three-touchdown explo- sion by the Wildcats in a ten-minute stretch in the sec- ond half ended any Husky thoughts of upset.

Crowley began the day and it was Pinto who led a

touchdown drive, but the highlight ot the day was an 85-yard punt return tor a touchdown by Mark Ander- son.

The Huskies then faced Central Connecticut State College at New Britain, and Central Connecticut wound up with a 21 -12 victory.

Back at home tor the last game in front of friendly crowds and the University of Maine in town. Deary teamed with freshman running back Blake Russell for the largest scoring explosion of the season in a 47-20 romp.

In the season's finale, the Huskies headed for Hamil- ton, N.Y., to face the 20th ranked team in the country

— Colgate.

With all three quarterbacks having some measure of success, the Huskies were competitive in all games, but lacked consistency. The team lost by nine points to Colgate, but lost to several Division II schools and could only tie a Division III team.

Not a good finish, but the Huskies will do what they do every year — come back with a positive attitude and a strong desire to play football.

Cross-Countrv

HUSKY HARRIERS DON'T GIVE AN INCH

Bruce Bicklord, Captain

"As freshmen, we weren't expected to win," recalled John Flora, "but we didn't want to give up."

As a result of this fierce determination to win, the Flora brothers graced the Northeastern cross-country scene labeled as 'super-freshmen.' "Those are the guys who are able to run with the seniors," stated cross-country head coach Everett Baker.

They certainly had no choice in the matter, however, for they were pushed into a do or die situation for the first meet. Injuries had crippled the team's depth and coach Baker was left with three freshmen and three upperclassmen. "We were ready to fall apart," remem- bers Bob Flora, "but somehow we pulled together and did well."

One of the many highlights of that 9-2 season was NU's dual meet victory over Harvard. "We hadn't beat Harvard in ten years. We had been dominated by them for so long," said John Flora. The team also topped Harvard at the Greater Boston championships, and placed third in the New England championships. That year was also the year NU was to do its best ever m the IC4A's, theoretically the East Coast championships, with a strong sixth place finish.

The following season saw Bruce Bickford enter the scene after a very successful high school career. The talented New England Schoolboy champ was to add great depth to the team.

That year also saw Northeastern's arch rival, Provi- dence, forfeit their dual meet with NU. The Rhode Island team was weak compared to their usual status,

and some speculation arose questioning the courage of the Providence squad. When the two did meet in the IC4A's, however, a complicated cross-country scoring system found the Huskies on the short end of the win- ning stick. Providence had edged the NU squad for the title honors despite a 4, 7, 8, 1 1 and 27 placing effort that saw two sophomores and a freshmah from NU place in the top ten. The three harriers were none other than John and Bob Flora and newcomer Bruce Bick- ford.

The performance awed the coaches of track powers Harvard and Villanova, and if it had been scored on a dual basis, NU would have beaten Providence. "We destroyed the East Coast," summed up fourth place finisher John Flora. The Husky showing was excellent and ended the season with a 7-4 record.

The surprising Huskies were to continue their power- ful running the next season despite a rather gloomy pre-season outlook. On paper, the statistics showed only four upperclassmen and thirteen freshmen. Some- how the Husky magic continued, as the team started setting numerous records. "We were running excel- lent," commented Bob Flora. "We were really dominat- ing the Greater Boston area." With a 1-2-3 finish in the Greater Boston championship, one finds it hard to refute Flora's statement. Actually, with the exception of Providence, that statement could have safely been expanded to the entire New England area.

The team did finish third in the New England champi- onships, and their sixth-place finish at the IC4A's was

paced by a 2-4-8 finish of the amazing trio of the Floras and Bickford. Perhaps the only thing holding the Husk- ies back from a higher placing was the humbling effect of Van Courtland Park (NY.) on the freshman-laden squad.

When this fall's season rolled around, expectations were very high for the experienced Huskies until inju- ries claimed Captain Bruce Bickford and Gerald Whit- taker for the season. The result was a devastating blow to the team's morale. "To lose your captain and fourth man is tough, very tough." lamented Coach Baker. "We were let down . . . depressed," replied a somber John Flora. "We needed a fourth and fifth man."

The team trudged through the first half of the season, losing to Providence and U. Mass by relatively close scores. But it wasn't until Brandeis nipped the Huskies by one point for the Greater Boston title that the team realized its potential. "It seemed to be the spark they were looking for. It was a slap in the face, what we needed to come back," said Coach Cohen.

After that meet, the Huskies seemed to let loose on everybody, denying any further dual meet opponents a victory. The team went on to claim third place in the New England championships and a very respectable sixth at the IC4A's.

The reason for such a strong finish was summarized by John Flora, "We never gave up, and our back men refused to break. They fought."

Stressing the importance of depth, Bob Flora com- mented, "You have to make a fifth man; he's very important." With Walter Nevilus, Jim Doane, Curt Stolle, Ronnie Day and Tommy Mortimer, the Huskies have no problem in locating that much-needed depth. The consistency and desire of these runners has shown through in their excellent performances.

In fact, John Tracey of powerful Providence admitted that he hates to run against NU. "We have to run our best to beat NU. They come back in the last mile and are so aggressive that they don't give an inch," replied Tracey.

This determination shows through in all the NU run- ners. "Anyone can come into our system, because it's not important where you place, it's the guts you show. Take 'em on hard," stated Baker.

Just as important as the runners are the men behind them. Technically, Everett Baker is the head coach, and "although he's young and unknown, he's very good. Already he's produced two All-Americans," said Bob Flora. "He encourages students to come out. This year alone we had 30 walk-ons, five of whom will be helpful to us. In cross-country, five guys is a lot."

So, with an indelible reputation behind them and high hopes for the upcoming year, the harriers closed out the season with a 7-2 record. Many underclassmen gained valuable experience for the future, and the Husky tradition seems destined to continue.

Mike Holmes, Captain

Disappointing and close are two words that aptly sum up Northeastern's hockey team.

Disappointing . . . because everyone in the East- ern College Athletic Conference (ECAC), including the Huskies, felt they could put it together this season as they've never been able to do before.

For the first time one could feel the enthusiasm flow. At the start of the season, head coach Fern Flaman was confident and the players optimistic. It would seem that the players need only lace up their skates and play heads-up hockey and they would be a sure bet for the ECAC playoffs.

Tough teams such as Boston University, Cornell, Clarkson and Boston College were all within reach if the Huskies could put together a string of strong games.

Disappointing . . . because everyone on the JU campus waited patiently for the Beanpot Champion- ships which annually determine hockey supremacy in Boston. It was hoped that a tough club with quick for- wards, seasoned defensemen and experienced goal- tending could bring home to Huntington Avenue the elusive Beanpot trophy, which hasn't been done since its inception 26 years ago.

Close . . . because with four games remaining in their season, the Huskies had won ten games and lost 14 with all of the losses by not more than two goals. Three of those defeats came in overtime against Boston College, Dartmouth and Harvard. The Harvard loss

ended any Husky dreams of making it to the Beanpot finals when the Crimson scored a 4-3 overtime victory at the Boston Garden.

Close . . . because in many of the games the Husk- ies held the lead or had the momentum when they took needless penalties which usually handed the game away. In these games, Northeastern would turn on the gas at the end, but it was usually not enough . . . or it was too late.

Close . . . because it seemed that every Northeast- ern shot would hit a post and bound away from the net, while opponents' shots were careening off the posts and in.

So, once again, the statement that echoes from the arena to the Boston Garden and back, "We'll get 'em next year," was passed along by many.

The season, though close and disappointing, was not devoid of highlights. Coach Flaman and assistant coach Don McKenney recruited some top-notch hockey players and stuck with a walk-on goaltender who paid off early in the season. Dave Wilkens, Larry Parks, Orlando Walker and Ed Arrington provided NU rooters with something to cheer about in the beginning of the season and proved that they will become great college hockey players in the next few years.

Arrington, a 25-year-old freshman from Danvers, was a walk-on candidate and the club's number-one net minder until he became sidelined with a broken

hand and then the tlu. In his absence, seniors Jim Bow- man and Jim McElroy filled in with each playing well, only to be defeated on power play goals with less than five minutes remaining.

The Huskies' finest hour came when they defeated Harvard by a score of 14-5 at the Crimson's Watson Rink, to end an 1 1 -year victory drought. The 4-3 victory at New Hampshire was equally impressive. Both Boston University games were tugs-of-war that were unfortu- nately decided by Terrier power play goals in the wan- ing minutes. It seemed as if the Huskies were being led out of the Ice Age and into a new era of confidence when their luck ran out.

Next season, most of the squad will return. Gone will be Northeastern's tower of strength and captain, Mike Holmes. He rewrote the NU record books for scoring by a defenseman. Scrappy Mark Coates, smooth Bob France and burly Mike Sandford have made a big impact on the Northeastern hockey program and will be missed. Stoppers Bowman and McElroy were slight-of- build but big in stature.

The Northeastern Varsity Ice Hockey program should have exploded this season and could explode upon the Eastern scene next year, but it seems a shame that with Northeastern's day just around the corner, these grad- uating seniors will not be here to reap in the glory.

Dave Caligaris, Co-Captain

Dave Sheehan, Co-Captain

To say that Northeastern's basketball program is under constant change is a vast understatement . . . and to say that the record books, especially under the scoring categories, are also undergoing major changes is a passive remark as well.

The program has been churning and grinding due to a continuous revamping from Division II play to, hope- fully, by next year, a schedule almost totally filled with Division I opponents.

But this isn't the obvious concern of most Husky bas- ketball fans. What is true this year, and has been true the past two seasons, is that co-captain Dave Caligaris of Holliston is pouring in his perfect jump shot from all around the court and scoring at record clips. He stands to own every individual record for point production as far as most points in a game, season and career by the end of the 1 977-78 campaign, when he will hang up his basketball shoes at NU for the last time.

The 6-5, 210-pound senior swingman, who has been asked by Coach Jim Calhoun, now in his sixth year at the helm of the Huskies, to play guard, forward and center, has come through in majestic style. Not only does he lead the team in the scoring column, but he is also the number-two rebounder and assist man.

But the pretty things about Caligaris's game are those nifty jumpers from deep in the corner or from near the top of the key, or his overpowering drives to the hoop which end up with either an easy lay-in or a stop-and-pop jumper from in the key. Whatever shot it is that he takes usually hits nothing but twine. The thing is that Caligaris is almost undoubtedly a shoe-in to attract the opponents' top defensive player. It doesn't phase him, though.

Caligaris came here as a top scorer and shooter from Holloston High and has been a mainstay for the team, first with John Clark and now on his own. The Business Administration major (79) maintains a 3.9 cumulative average and is a candidate for a Rhodes Scholarship.

The Huskies' other co-captain is Dave Sheehan, a 6- 5 leaper who went to Don Bosco Tech and hails from Woburn. Sheehan has helped the team with his rebounding and defensive abilities, although not blessed with the scoring proficiency enjoyed by his counter-part. A look at the individual stats through two- thirds of this season show Sheehan to be the leading assist man and the third leading rebounder.

The Criminal Justice major- came from a high school where he was surrounded by many great players from Massachusetts. Consequently, he found he always had to work hard. But Sheehan has come through and will probably finish his career with about 600 points for NU.

The two other seniors on the team are Jeff Dillon and John Hennessey. Dillon, a 6-4, 175 pounder from Ded- ham, was coached by Calhoun in high school and came here as an All-Scholastic Schoolboy performer. But Jeff is caught between stations, as it were, by not being strong enough to handle a forward spot and not quite quick enough to stay with a guard position.

He has, though, been a contributor and works extremely hard in practice. Jeff is a 3.0 student major- ing in Business Management.

Hennessey was a walk-on to the basketball program at NU, as he went to Calhoun four years ago and asked to try out for the team. After two seasons of sub-varsity work, John earned a varsity position last year. This sea- son, the strong and physical 210-pounder has helped

out with some of the rebounding.

Four underclassmen have provided the Huskies with their nucleus, including two freshmen who add a bright prospective for the future. The first-year players are Pete Harris and Chip Rucker. Harris, a 6-1 guard from Braddock, Pennsylvania, is the best offensive player for a rookie ever to wear an NU uniform. He is the second leading point man and provides a lot of excitement with his quick, flashy moves.

Rucker, a 6-7 forward from Brockton, is another exciting player. He is the team's leading rebounder and, although injury-prone due to his hustling style, should be a welcome returnee next winter.

Guard Bill Loughnane, a 6-2 sophomore from Dor- chester, is the team's ball-handler and leading assist man. Among his memories of the season will be a long, late field goal to beat Siena in the last second. Doug Clary, a 6-8 junior from Pawtucket, Rhode Island, has had his moments this season, but an injury to ligaments in one of his ankles slowed his production and effec- tiveness. He tallied 23 points and grabbed 1 5 rebounds in his best outing against James Madison.

Others who have contributed are sophomore Bob Schoening of Dartmouth and junior Herb Caesar of

Teaneck, New Jersey. Andy Lehmann, a freshman from New Providence, New Jersey, is a good outside shooter who should help in the years to come. Warren Davis, Bill MacGuire and Dennis Grube round out the 1977-78 Husky roster.

NU's basketball program has been undergoing a slow change since the team entered Division I in 1 971 . At that time, no standards were set for what opponents a Division I team had to face. Now, the rules state that by next year, 80 percent of a top division's school's schedule has to be among teams in its division.

NU has easily reached this plateau, even by this sea- son. Looking at a chart of NU schedules, in 1968, 14 opponents were not in Division I. But this year, the Huskies had but four non-division foes (Assumption, St. Michael's, Brandeis and AIC). And in 1978-79, NU will drop St. Michael's and AIC and will add the likes of Brown and Dartmouth, and, hopefully, Yale to add a bit of the Ivy League to its slate.

With this slow change, NU hopes to keep its basket- ball standards changing — for the better.

IRWIN COHEN: ON THE RIGHT TRACK

Mark Lech, Co-Captain

Frank Mortimer, Co-Captain

"Every few years you get a vintage crop, and our last one was 1974," commented head track coach Irwin Cohen on this year's fourth-year runners. "A vintage crop is when you have an unbelievable recruiting year and you obtain some exceptional talent."

Included in Cohen's last harvest were the likes of Mark Lech, Roger Dupont, Paul Grant, John and Bob Flora, Frank Mortimer, Kurt Stolle and Tim Morse. Although the names might not have aroused any atten- tion back then, they certainly are grabbing some head- lines now. This is the group's fourth year on the track and to say they form the nucleus of the squad seems to be an understatement. They have been the driving force of the track team for the past four years, and, as they increased their abilities, the status of NU track has simultaneously improved.

"As freshmen, we probably improved our team. I believe we made the difference between a winning team and a losing team," asserted John Flora, the school's two-mile record holder. "We filled the gaps and gave great depth. We did pretty well that year."

The freshmen formed the backbone and the upper- classmen gave the push," Flora said. Whether it was backbone, just enough push or some combination of both is uncertain. The facts show an impressive unde- feated season with one highlight being Mark Lech's undefeated dual meet record, which he has maintained during his entire career at NU.

After that successful season, the team's depth was bolstered by two freshman sensations. Bruce Bickford in the distance events and Ron Chambers in the long jump and triple jump. "Chambers killed everybody and Roger Dupont was rated in the top five on the East Coast," boasted Coach Cohen. In fact, the team was rated eighth or ninth on the East Coast and did even better than the ratings with a fifth in the IC4A's. Seven

members took first place in the meet and more improvement was yet to come.

The team controlled Greater Boston and New Eng- land by winning both championship meets and finished with only one defeat all year.

The 1976-77 season saw what could only be described as an awesome display of talent. At the New England Championships, the powerhouse blew the rest of the competitors in an unprecedented 1 00-plus points scoring tally. "There were more New England champs than I've ever seen before," confessed a startled John Flora. Traveling on to the IC4A's, the Huskies posed a serious threat to national powerhouse Villanova, leav- ing everyone but the Huskies in awe. Nonetheless, the Huskies are well aware of how far they have prog- ressed in such a short time. "To build up to the level where we could scare Villanova is pretty good," com- mented two-year captain Mark Lech.

Coach Cohen believes, "We've had better people coming in. They're better because they have higher goals, and this has been evident in their improving per- formances." In an effort to explain this continuing prog- ress, the four-time New England Coach of the Year quoted Sir Isaac Newton: "If I have seen further than other men, it is because I have stood on the shoulders of giants." By starting young, as freshmen, the team has been able to stand on a lot of shoulders, lately their own, and their abilities have reflected this growth.

Yet, the team alone could not be responsible for their rise to power. The men behind the scenes have done their share of hard work, also. Concerning Coach Cohen, Lech said, "He's super, he's earned himself a national reputation." Weight coach Joe Donahue drew similar praise.

"Coaches Cohen, Baker and Donahue are great coaches. They have a helluva desire. We've developed

a team-to-coaches relationship that's tremendous. If we're ever down, we always come back — together," Bob Flora proudly stated.

One thing that's certain: together, the team and the coaches have established a reputation tor Northeast- ern track as that of a winner. And yet, when the mem- bers of the team were freshmen, they didn't realize much of their talents, with the exception of Mark Lech. Overall, we were mediocre during our freshman year. But this team builds. We've developed and outlasted everybody. We've gotten injured but we've always come back. We moved right up the scale because we've improved consistently." summarized John Flora.

All this building has been done at what many would call insufficient facilities. Yet Coach Cohen says this "is never an excuse. If you have problems, you do well in spite of them. And if you lose, it's your fault."

This type of dedicated attitude is very much present among the team as well. "We train to be champions — we work at it," Bob Flora said.

How can one doubt him? The team has built a repu- tation that has earned the respect of every team on the East Coast. And to claim the title of the IC4A's is no longer a dream but a short-range, reachable goal.

Boston Red Sox 1 0, NU 2 (exhibition)

Tom Whitehouse, Captain

The year 1 977 was not a banner year for Northeast- ern's baseball squad. With a record of 9 wins and 16 losses, it is easy to understand why the Huskies would like to remember one game they lost by a score of 1 0-2. Why? Because it was against the Boston Red Sox. Best of all, it was played at Fenway Park. You know, the dia- mond in the middle of Kenmore Square. The home of all the legendary great Sox stars: Pesky, Cronin, Foxx, Wlliams, Yastrzemski, Louis and the immortal Arnold Early.

It was quite a sight to look out on the mound and see Northeastern 's Charlie Peterson looking for his first win of the season against the Boston Red Sox.

It was even funnier when Rick Burleson, the first Sox hitter, struck out.

After the first four innings, Peterson had held the Fenway Fencebusters to only two runs. Louis Tiant, meanwhile, had given up a run to NU.

In the fifth, all hell broke loose. The Huskies began to throw the ball around.

This was all the Red Sox needed to go on and win 10-2. But Northeastern had played admirably, getting seven hits off Twirling Tiant and Lefty Lee, while striking out only six times. Regardless of the score, the North- eastern team ate the whole thing up. It was, as one player put it, "a boyhood dream come true."

The regular season was not such a happy story. Going into the Red Sox exhibition game, the Husky nine was 3 and 3. Northeastern began the season los- ing 2 out of 3 games in the Southeastern Massachu- setts University Invitational. They then lost another game to Holy Cross. Against the usually strong U. Mass. team at Amherst, Northeastern won a double- header in sub-freezing weather.

When Northeastern beat Tufts 1 0-2 to become 4 and 3, things were looking bright. This was the last time it would, however, as Northeastern lost 8 out of their next 9 games. This really knocked the Huskies out of any division playoff picture in which they might have seen themselves.

The frustrating thing was that although the final record was 9 wins and 1 6 losses, seven of the losses occurred when Northeastern was either tired or ahead going into the last inning. In the final analysis, the inex- perience and occasional wildness of the pitchers, who averaged four walks a game, hurt. There were too many men left on base by the hitters. The team hit well enough with a team average of over .270. Also, the defensive lapses in the field came at the most inoppor- tune times.

Many of the players had impressive statistics, how- ever. Captain Tom Whitehouse will surely be missed as

will his .380 average. Three year varsity man, Chuck Mountain, is gone trom the centerfield, as are four standout players, catcher Ron Wilson and "jack-of-all trades" Mark McHugh.

Mike Cawley's solid bat (.280 last year) is gone from the designated hitter slot. What can be left?

Plenty of pitchers are left. These pitchers have gained "on-the-job training" ... a Northeastern trade- mark. However, they will miss three-year man Bob Wil- liamson. Williamson, a starter for three years, saw lim- ited action last year due to a shoulder injury.

Coach John Connelly, who has coached the Husky nine for a quarter of a century, expects Mike Bruno to lead the 1 978 pitching staff.

"Last year, we lacked a consistent winner," said Connelly. He's hoping that Bruno could be that winner in 1978. The Huskies also have last year's leading win- ner, Bob Bird (3-2) back. Along with promising sopho- more Mike Kelly and tough-luck pitcher Charlie Peter- son, a big turnaround could be in order.

Sophomore Paul Bevilaqua and junior Mike Ford will probably see relief as well as starting roles. Both

pitched well in spots last season.

Lefty Woody Tondorf had an ailing last season and if he's healthy this year, he could be tough.

Tom Janedy, a third-year varsity pitcher, is the only exclusive relief pitcher on the team. The Huskies have a couple of Joe's playing the corners: Joe Glynn and Joe Annesse, 1978 captain-elect.

Annesse is confident that this year will be better.

Sophomore Dan Columbo is confident, also. He said, "This year I'm going to hit .300." It would be no sur- prise if he did.

Third-year starter Steve McKinnon is back behind the plate. Confidence has never been his short suit, either.

Jack Trabuco will be back for his third year in right field. Shortstop Marty Raffol, designated hitter John Fachini and reserve catcher Bob Murray are also big plusses for this year's squad.

If one of Coach Connelly's freshmen plays a solid centerfield, look for the Huskies to turn their record around from 9-1 6 to 1 6-9!

CREW: A TANK FULL OF TIGERS

Paul Danforth, Captain

"Crew is a hard sport to talk about," confessed new head crew coach 'Buzz' Congram, "mainly because of the concept of crew, that of non-personality.

"The reason for this," he said, "is that all eight are doing exactly the same thing. A crew team could have the best eight individuals but they wouldn't win unless they learned to work together."

Jack Grinold, director of Sports Information at NU, offered this example "If you had the two best sprinters in the world and they ran the three-legged like they run their sprints, they'd lose. That's why there are no stars making the headlines in crew. It's imperative that the team works together, learning one technique and not their own individual styles."

The problem in developing this cohesiveness lies with the physical needs of the sport. One necessity is water. But rowing on the Charles in winter is rather diffi- cult, so a crew tank was built. The tank is very valuable to the team, but it's not an oarsman's best friend.

"There isn't too much fun down in the tank," Grinold commented. In fact, it is often referred to as a dungeon and described easily as drudgery.

"There's nothing to look forward to," lamented sen- ior oarsman Bob Hafferman. "There's no race to look ahead to and get ready for," he said.

P. J. Parziale added, "we row forty-eight minutes a year in competition and yet we spend nine months training for the season. A lot of those hours get put in

here. A lot of long hours."

The tank and its associated workouts were best sum- med up by Coach Congram. "The tank separates the oarsman from those who want to boat on the Charles."

The tank has always been effective in finding the oarsmen, but not always in finding a winning team. "In the past, as far as individual talent, we've had some good material, but it hasn't shown on the water," reflected four-year man Parziale. "Maybe it's been motivational problems."

The fact that the team hasn't been able to win regu- larly is a little depressing to NU followers. "I guess you're always disappointed with anything less than championship caliber," explained Hafferman, "because in crew you win or you lose; you can't take a close loss."

The reason most NU rooters are spoiled in the win- ning ways is outgoing Coach Ernie Arlett. Coach Arlett called it a career after thirteen years of dedicated work. But what can one say about Arlett that hasn't already been said? His coaching was incredible. Born in Hen- ley, England, the rowing capital of the world, rowing was in his blood and he transfused his abilities into many NU crew members. In his years as head coach he gained the respect of all who were associated with crew. In fact, at his retirement banquet he was made an honorary member of the Penn Rowing Association.

Walter S. 'Buzz' Congram was brought in to coach

130

the team. 'Buzz' has had fifteen years of coaching experience in the freshman programs at Columbia, Rutgers and, most recently, Yale. He was given the task of rejuvenating the floundering programs. In all three cases he turned the teams around. His latest accom- plishment was at Yale, where his final team finished 6-1 with a third in the Eastern Sprints and a fourth in the IRAs. Congram was also named coach of the U.S. national lightweight rowing team and took the bronze medal in the World Championships in Australia.

Oddly enough, his impressive record comes after only one year of rowing in college. Congram had been grabbing the headlines as the starting end for Colum- bia's last Ivy League championship team, when he decided to try rowing. The same determination he showed then in earning a spot in his first year is the same he'll try to get from his Husky crew.

The new coach will also be working hard with the school's new freshman coach, Larry Gluckman. A 1969 NU graduate, Gluckman captained the Husky team in his senior year. He's also had numerous accomplishments since joining international competi- tion in 1967. One highpoint in his crew career was earning a position on the 1976 Olympic team as an alternate.

"We're well aware of Larry," boasted Grinold. "He's no stranger to us and we're glad do have him. In fact,

the NU rowing association, which is mostly comprised of alumni, couldn't be more impressed with the work he's done."

"Coach Congram stresses more technique than before," analyzed three-year man Joe Bancheri. "Before we just seemed to race. Now our technique is a little more modern."

"Attitude is also improving," added Boncheri, "There is more individual effort than before." This is a good sign, especially in rowing, where oarsmen are competing with others for seats. When one works harder, it forces a chain reaction of scared people to improve.

Hafferman also added that the additional recruiting being done now is resulting in the arrival of better fresh- man talent. This, of course, complements the walk-in students who have served as NU's reserves before. And this has added to the team's attitude.

"We have great expectations for this year," said Haf- ferman. "Each time, we'll be rowing to win."

Hopefully, these aspirations can come true in Coach Congram's first season. In Coach Arlett's last season, the team was the national champ. Hopefully, coaches Congram and Gluckman can instill the same magic in the crew team as their predecessor did.

ENGINEERING

When people mention Northeastern University, they usually mention the College ot Engineering in the same breath . . . because the University is perhaps best known for its Engineering program. In 1 904, the program was part of the Polytechnic School. In 1 91 2, its name changed officially to the Cooperative Engineering School, and later became known as the College of Engineering.

Courses of study offered include programs in Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, Chemical, Industrial, Power Systems and Computer Engineering.

According to Dean Melvin Mark, engineering has two essential goals: first, it should, "develop the technology that will help society perform more effectively," he said. "And second, it must insure that technological advances are compatible with human values."

"The role at Northeastern's College of Engineering," Dean Mark continued," is to provide environmental and practical experience that will assist students in developing professionally with these goals in mind."

Students enrolled in the College of Engineering have several options available to them:

— General Engineering - — Computer Science Option: Students take several computer-related courses, and, combined with practical work experience gained from co-op, fulfill technical requirements to earn a B.S. degree.

— Civil Engineering — Environmental Option: Students involved in environmental protection benefit primarily from this option. With experience earned through co-op, students, upon graduation, are prepared to enter professional practice in government agencies, industrial or private consulting firms.

— Electrical Engineering — Computer Engineering Option: Students interested in the computer industry may choose this option, which provides "specialized courses in computer hardware and computer design."

— Electrical Engineering — Power Systems Option: Through this program, electrical engineering students may receive both a Bachelor's and a Master's degree in six years.

In addition, the College of Engineering offers an eight-year evening curriculum leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Electrical, Mechanical or Civil Engineering.

The Bachelor of Engineering Technology is earned through courses taken in the Lincoln College.

Other programs include Electrical Engineering Technology and Mechanical Engineering Technology.

The College of Engineering has instituted a PRIME (Progress in Minorities in Engineering) program which "seeks to expand educational opportunities for Blacks, Hispanics and American Indians who are citizens or have permanent resident status." The program offers guidance counseling and tutorial service.

LIBERAL ARTS

\

R. Ketchum

What do Biology, History, Journalism and Geology all have in common'? Nothing, except that they are all majors within the College of Liberal Arts.

The College prides itselt on being a divserse and exciting college where stu- dents can lose themselves in a number of courses. Communications majors receive preparation for a career in theater, the arts, or drama and speech. Mathematics majors, in addition to the preparation received from classroom instruction, benefit greatly from co-op by working at a number of professions, including computer-related jobs.

According to Acting Dean of Liberal Arts Robert Ketchum, enrollment at Northeastern has increased dramatically over the past few years. More fresh- men are entering the University as journalism majors. The journalism college is expanding its curriculum to include new courses, and the long-awaited pho- tojournalism course was finally implemented in the fall of 1 977.

Most liberal arts majors choose to participate in the five-year, cooperative education program, although several do go straight through in four years, without co-op.

The College offers programs leading to two degrees in most majors — the

Bachelor of Arts and the Bachelor of Science. Students are reguired to fulfill

"distribution requirements" (courses in the Humanities, Social Sciences and Science/Mathematics) to

receive the B.S. degree. Completion of a foreign language requirement is also mandatory for a B.A.

degree.

Students may elect to take an interdisciplinary major in Human Services. They may choose an inde- pendent major, which, in effect, permits the student to design his own major.

In addition, the College offers a junior-senior honors program during the last three quarters of the stu- dent's program. To qualify for this program, students must maintain a minimum average of 3.0 through the seventh quarter, have no F's or incompletes, no C's or D's in the major field, and no D's in courses outside of the student's major.

Co-op opportunities for Liberal Arts majors are diverse, not only in the job each student has, but also in the individual rates of pay. Some jobs pay minimum wage, while others pay their co-op students the same wages they would get if they were a recent graduate seeking a job.

But is a degree in Liberal Arts really a solid enough criterion to obtain a good job in one's major after graduation? Most students find the answer to that question to be "yes."

IN MEMORIAM

JOSEPH LEVINE

Joseph Levine, distinguished journalism lec- turer, died at South Shore Hospital in Weymouth on October 1 0, 1 977. He was 55.

A veteran newspaper reporter and former vice- president of WHDH-TV, Levine came to NU in the fall of 1973. He used his background in law to expand the department's course in the legal ethics of journalism.

Levine was a 1947 graduate of Northeastern, where he received a Bachelor's in English, magna cum laude. He worked his way through school running copy at the Boston Globe and later as a reporter and copy editor.

Upon graduation from NU, Levine joined United Press (now United Press International) as a staff reporter in the Boston bureau until joining the Boston Herald Traveler Corporation in 1952. At the age of 46, Levine was awarded a degree in law from Suffolk University.

He is survived by his wife, Lillian, and their four children.

BUSINESS ADMINISTRA TION

The College of Business Administration (CBA) is one of the oldest colleges of the university. Its beginnings trace back to 1 91 6, when the school was known as Northeastern College, and courses were offered at night by the School of Commerce and Finance.

There are nine concentrations within the CBA. The courses offered within those concentrations, added to the benefits of the cooperative education program, combine to create a solid start for a career in business.

The university has changed dramatically over the past few years, and those changes have encompassed the business college as well. In 1 976, a new Dean of Business was hired with many goals and objectives and high-hopes for implementing them. Dean Geoffrey Clarkson's overall goal is to maintain the high standards set for faculty and the curriculum within the college. However, more visible changes have already taken place.

Any student who has suffered through a summer quarter in Hayden Hall can easily recall those 90-degree days spent in rooms more closely resembling the sauna bath at the YMCA down the street.

To help remedy the situation, a new classroom design was introduced, including carpeting and lowered ceilings for better acoustics, air conditioning and better lighting. The College of Business Administration offers several concentrations: Accounting, Entrepreneurship and New Venture Management (Small Business Management), Marketing, Finance and Insurance, Human Resources, International Business, Management, and Transportation. In addition, the College offers a General Business concentration for those who wish to select courses from any of the above concentrations.

According to Dean Clarkson, the goal of the College is "to develop the ability to recognize and solve problems and to understand the scope of the business firm in community, national and international relations."

Business administration majors, depending on their particular concentration, may find themselves co-oping at a variety of places, ranging from accounting firms to insurance companies to private and government agencies.

This college offers a Human Services concentration, which is also offered by the Colleges of Criminal Justice and Liberal Arts.

The need for qualified business personnel has grown greatly over the last few years, and the College of Business Administration has taken the growth in stride and expanded to produce the most experienced and well-trained students that co-op employers have seen in a long time.

EDUCATION

Although the job market for teachers has gotten progressively worse of late, one would never know it from the enrollment in Northeastern's College of Education.

Education majors comprise a large part of the University. Programs offered include Elementary and Secondary Education, Speech and Hearing Therapy, Music Education and an interdisciplinary program in Human Services.

Elementary Education majors receive training in Humanities, Social Science, Reading- Language, Mathematics-Science, Special Education and Early Childhood Education.

This market is extremely competitive, but Northeastern graduates receive intense, in- depth preparation to enter the field.

Secondary majors are offered in social studies, English, foreign languages, and several others.

This course serves as a solid foundation for graduate work in either the student's speciality or education.

The College of Education offers a preprofessional program in Speech and Hearing Therapy. Full certification is received at the completion of a master's degree. Completion of the undergraduate program prepares students to enter graduate programs in Speech Therapy, Deaf Education or Audiology. In addition, the College offers a program in Music Education. Graduates of this program will be prepared to teach music to students in grades kindergarten through 1 2.

The College of Education expects students to participate in the cooperative education plan. Students may obtain co-op jobs in school systems, hospitals, social agencies or libraries.

All programs offered by the College of Education are accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education. The College is a member of the American Association for Teacher Education. In addition, programs are approved by the Interstate Certification Compact, assuring graduates of reciprocal certification in many states.

BOSTON BOUVE

P. Lepley

Anatomy . . . Biology . . . Clinical Medicine . . .

Sounds like a typical course load tor a nursing student, right? Perhaps, but these are also some of the ABC's leading to a degree from the Boston Bouve College.

In 1 964, the Boston School of Physical Education took on a new name and a new outlook, and affiliated itself with the largest private university in the country. Boston Bouve became a part of Northeastern, with physical education and physical therapy the only majors available to students. In 1 965, recreation education was added and seven years later students could major in health education.

All Bouve students follow a curriculum dealing heavily with liberal arts until their middler year. Then students actively pursue courses and activities within their particular major. Upperclass Bouve students, in addition to the courses in anatomy and biology, must also take courses in kinesiology, neurology, physiology of exercise and therapy. The physical therapy major is considered to be one of the most demanding in the university.

According to Bouve Dean Paul Lepley, PT students are prepared for work in nursing homes, clinics and hospitals, and are given the option of expanding into athletics if they choose. Co-op assignments range from working with the very young to the very old; and with people with mild to chronic or severe illnesses. A physical education major receives experience and training at the elementary and secondary school level. This major also allows for expansion to athletic training by offering it as a minor concentration.

During the freshman year, physical education students attend the Warren Center in Ashland for a week-long course in group dynamics. Just as physical education allows an application of knowledge, physical education students participate in a student teaching experience during the senior year.

Recreation education majors can choose to concentrate in community recreation, therapeutic recreation or outdoor recreation and conservation. Students can acquire or sharpen their skills in arts and crafts, music, outdoor and indoor activities, including dance, sports and a variety of other activities. Recreation education majors participate in a supervised field work experience which can be compared to clinical or student teaching experiences, depending upon the student's interests. The program also allows for a work experience in Switzerland which is open to all students in their middle, junior, senior and graduate years. This is offered for credit during the summer quarter.

Cooperative and field work experience include work in schools, hospitals, community, parks and recreation departments and conservation agencies.

Health education courses expose students to drug use and abuse, health problems of children and the aged, mental and general health.

Students majoring in health education obtain jobs in health centers, nursing homes, schools, universities and hospitals during cooperative experience or during field work or student teaching experiences during the senior year. Boston Bouve is not only nationally known for its work in higher education but also for its highly accredited faculty and promotion of the education of women, especially in the field of physical education.
