MICHELLE D. HOLDER EDITOR-IN-CHIEF DEDICATION

We the class of 1980 take great pride in dedicating our yearbook to two fine professors Dr. Henry Cornwell and Mr. Alexander Gabbin.

Dr. Cornwell is the chairman of the Psychology Department. He has been a devoted teacher at Lincoln for 36 years. He always has time to counsel students when needed. This year Dr. Cornwell will retire with the class of 1980.

Mr. Gabbin is a professor in the Business Department and is also our class advisor. He has worked with us since our freshman year and has continued through our senior year. He has never missed a class meeting despite his busy schedule.

The class of 1980 would like to show our appreciation to two great men by dedicating our yearbook to them.

WE'LL MISS YOU !!! A NOTE FROM THE EDITOR TO THE GRADUATING CLASS OF 1980

I can remember my first day at Lincoln August 1976, not knowing where to go or what to do. Finally, I met some friends and was able to find my way around the campus.

It now seems like we have been in school forever, struggling, and just trying to survive. Lincoln University is one experience; either you make it or you don't. There are so many things you have to deal with: your teachers, peers, the atmosphere, and yourself. I'm proud to say it has been a pleasure learning and sharing experiences with you.

Now it has ended. When you leave here remember one thing: BE YOURSELF and live your life to the fullest.

Michelle D. Holder ALMA MATER

Dear Lincoln, Dear Lincoln To thee we'll e'er be true! The golden hours we've spent beneath The dear old Orange and Blue

Will live for e'er in memory, As guiding stars through life; For thee our Alma Mater dear, We'll rise in our might.

For we love every inch of thy sacred soil Every tree on thy campus green; And for thee with our might We will ever toil That thou mightest be supreme.

We'll raise thy standard to the sky Midst glory and honor to fly; And constant and true. We will live for thee anew. Our Dear Old Orange and Blue Hail! Hail! Lincoln! "

TO THE CLASS OK 1980:

"Everythinii g the child learns in school he forgets--but the education remains. ii

This French maxim, like most maxims, overstates the case. Still it contains immense truth, for even at Lincoln what you carry away in terms of your motivation, values, judgment, habits of thought, habits of work, knowledge, and humaneness are the essential outcomes of your years here to help you meet the problems of a world beset with daunting obligations.

No doubt you may be slightly aghast over the seemingly stupid problems of this period: why can't we burn all the oil we can pay for; why can't we blow our weak little adversaries off the globe; why can we... We are rich, powerful, right. All of us find it difficult to accept that all affairs are no longer simple, that we must be mindful of the peoples all over the world, that perhaps the most challenging task of your generation will be how to bring the advantages of civilization to all the peoples over the earth without subjecting it to a nuclear holo- caust in the process. To achieve the last will require a triumph of tenacity over adversity.

This last theme, too, must be moved to the front. The potential of our science and technology is immense but not limitless. You must be especially sensitive to developments such as we are alreading experi- encing: our right to privacy abraded by the computer, for example. And even more frightening encounters with the dehumanizing potential of technology are evident.

May we hope for you a life of sincere, effective involvement, using your skills in the service of our society—a Lincoln tradition since 1854. Avoid the cosmetic, the selfish, the fanatic. Santayana defined a fana- tic as one who redoubles his efforts after he has lost sight of his goals. May your goals be clear and worthy.

Very cordially yours

DEDICATED TO THE CLASS OF 1980

To school again we must once tread To books, to work, to things we dread. At times this life can be quite dull, But yet it can be wonderful! We learn, we play, we sing and dance. But does this life hold real romance? So yet another year goes by. We're happy, sad, get mad, we cry. But all these changes we go through, are necessary we understand. And they will happen every year until that sheepskins in our hands.

I 153 CLASS HISTORY

The class of 1980 burst upon the scene in August of 1976. We hit the campus full of stories of how great college was going to be. Mom and Dad weren't there to look over your shoulder, so now was the time to have fun. The first few hours of orientation week did nothing to change your feelings; you met a lot of people, got settled in your new room and found out that your roommate wasn't a complete bore. However, after the first couple of days of test, library orientation and Dean Vernon's motherly lectures about the sins of wearing curlers in your hair to class. The cafeteria food gave people serious doubts about the good college life. Fortunately, the upperclassmen came back before you could really get too worried. Then there were the debates about whether the Zetas, the A.K.A.'s, or the Deltas were the best and would you rather become an Alpha Angel, Kappa Sweetheart, Zeta Beau or an Omega Pearl. There were also the weekend parties, and occasionally between all this social activity you found time to go to a class or two. The Homecoming weekend was now fast approaching. After getting over the shock that this was actually a Homecoming without a football game, it was time to settle down for more fun. Roy Ayers and Tavares were the entertainment that year, Man! Didn't we party all night long? Shortly after Homecoming those mid-term grades came out. Some of us were scared to go home. The fall of 1977 saw a wiser class of 1980. Those of us who survived that first year sat back to lick our wounds and looked to see how many of our friends had fallen by the wayside. This year we vowed to have fun but not flunk out in the process. But if we thought that the 1977-78 school year was going to be calm, we were wrong. The first day of class that year started with a professor being dragged out of his classroom by the police. One English class had two instructors. This was just the beginning of the fight between the administration and the faculty that got students caught in the crossfire. Sophomore year was also the year when the cafeteria food began to deteriorate. Students were arrested for taking milk, juice, and other food out of the cafeteria. The C.S.L.U. (Concerned Students of Lincoln University) organized a trip to Harrisburg to lobby for the bill Lincoln needed to get its money. C.S.L.U. protested against students being arrested, the bad food, the health center and some professors. Demonstrations were planned for Homecoming to get the support of the Alumni. After Homecoming, sit-ins were staged in the S.U.B. to get some response from the Administration.

]

154 By spring there were faculty picket lines around Vail. Gerald Ford visited the campus. Secret Service agents stalked the campus like they owned it while Ford's entourage took over the top of the S.U.B. and the students were fed cold lunches in the lower level. Junior year started off slower than the last two. The class of 1980 was nearing the home stretch. The size of the class had dwindled, but we were still holding on pretty strong. Things were fairly calm on campus; Homecoming came and went with Funkadelics providing the entertainment. The major mishaps were the window that got broken in the faculty dining room, and the fake fire drill in Hansberry. Rumors were flying fast and thick about fraternities and sororities. Second semester everyone was in for a rude shock! The business office announced that if your bill wasn't paid by January 31, then you would find yourself standing on Route 1 with your suitcases. A lot of people received ominous brown envelopes. Some people owed Lincoln as much as 5,000 dollars and most of the campus wondered how they managed to stay around so long. The campus seemed rather empty that semester; at least 100 people left because they didn't have the money. The Board of Trustees sent another shock wave through campus by ending the 24-hour visitation and cutting visiting hours to 12 noon to 12 midnight, seven days a week. The campus ignored it; we were more discreet and business went on as usual. Late spring semester the Administration announced that Hansberry, Rendall, and McRary would become freshman dorms. Dean Vernon announced that there would be various improvements on Lincoln's campus (which no one be- lieved), and that visitation hours would end at 9:30 P.M. for freshmen on weekdays, 11:00 P.M. for upperclassmen, and 12-2 during the weekends. Again, no one believed it would work. With Floyd Green at the helm as S.G.A. President, the class of 1980 began its final days. James Love was elected president of the senior class and pledged to make this the best year ever and stressed class spirit. The major event for the senior class was Homecoming. It was planned to be a two night extravaganza, a jazz night with Dexter Wansel and Lonnie Liston Smith and a boogie night with Stephanie Mills and Skyy. There was a disco at the end of each of the concerts. Mavis Kelley was elected Homecoming queen. However, the excitement of Homecoming was overshadowed by the boycott of the convocation held as part of the Homecoming activities in which Siaka Stevens, President of Sierra Leone, was to get an honorary degree. The student body staged a demonstra- tion outside the chapel, while the ceremonies were carried on. The students carried picket signs and shouted, "Down with Branson, Savage, and Stevens." As the guest left, Lincoln ended up making the 6:00 news in Philadelphia and all the local papers. The S.G.A. and the Student Senate didn't agree with the Administration's choice of giving Stevens an honorary degree. We were pressing for more student input into Administrative decisions concerning students and better security, especially for Homecoming. More security was provided for the campus for Homecoming, but the effectiveness of it was questioned when Ashmun Hall was broken into during the Thanksgiving break. Spring semester starts the count down toward May 4, 1980. Many a weary senior waits this special day, saying, "I'm one day closer to graduation." The hassles have been many, but there was also a lot of fun and it will be quite a while before Lincoln forgets the Class of 1980.

Edith H. Hull President of Sierra Leone, was to get an honorary degree. The student body staged a demonstra- tion outside the chapel, while the ceremonies were carried on. The students carried picket signs and shouted, "Down with Branson, Savage, and Stevens." As the guest left, Lincoln ended up making the 6:00 news in Philadelphia and all the local papers.
