This year's theme for the Homecom­ ing parade was "Allegheny Traditions". Floats from four fraternities and sorori­ ties and several Residence Halls had entries in the annual float competition. Some of the "Allegheny's Traditions" that were depicted in the floats included "Starting Allegheny's Greek Tradition" (Phi Kappa Psi and Kappa Alpha Theta), "The 13th Plank (Sigma Alpha Epsilon and Kappa Kappa Gamma), "The Tuna Deck" (Phi Delta Theta and Alpha Delta Pi), and winning the Greek category — "Gators Always Pin" (Theta Chi and Alpha Chi Omega). The float presented the pinning ceremony of the Greeks at Allegheny. Caflisch come out on top in the Residence Hall category with the depiction of "President McKinley's Cow ".

The Gator Football Team had a disappointing one point loss to Kenyon. The Gators were winning going into the half 14-7. The two TD's were scored by Curtis Brown after defensive players Rob Chernitsky and Paul Belfore each picked off a Kenyon pass. Although the Gator defense and the strong running game produced great plays, the Gators fell short of the win when Kenyon scored on a two-point conversion in the last few seconds of the game. Kiski Area Marching Band entertained the crowd during half- time when Jennifer Wall and Tom Stanley were crowned Queen and King by Pres. Shafer. Picnics, class reunions, dinners and dances provided a weekend full of fun and activity for everyone. FACES AND PLACES OF ALLEGHENY

The 1985-86 men's soccer season shows a 3-11-4 overall record and a 1-3-2 NCAC record. Nevertheless, the Allegheny soccer team was placed fifth in NCAC ratings. The team's partial success can be attributed to All- Conference second team pick, Senior Mike Mangialardi and Junior Dan Bryson. All-Conference Honorable mentions were Juniors David "Bear" Hirsh and Nick Heyniger. Mike Mangialardi's broken foot three days before the first game is one of the causes for the team's difficulty.

Chris Noyes was the recipient of the Bob Barndollar's '64 Memorial Award, established by group of Allegheny soccer alumni who knew Bob and wanted to perpetuate his memory. The award is voted upon by the players.

MIKE MANGIALARDI Forward Mike Mangialardi was named Gator Soccer Most Valuable Player for this season. Although the Gators finished with a 1-3-2 record and an overall record of 3-11-4, Mike was, as always, a strong competitor. At the end of the season, Mike was named to the Second Team NCAC All-Conference. This was a well deserved honor for Mike's play this season. He was also the team's co-captain for the second year. Not only was Mike a strong player in soccer, he was also a guiding force in baseball. Batting with a .276 average, Mike had 32 hits with 23 runs, 21 RBI's, five doubles, one triple and one homerun. He was a strong center fielder and team leader. He was honored with All- Conference: Best Defensive Player for his work. Mike is graduating this year with a BA in History. He has made his mark as a top athelete in Allegheny Sports.

The Allegheny Women's Soccer team was formed this year (85-86) and made its debut with a 9-1-2 NCAC record and an NCAC conference championship. Quite an ex­ cellent season for a newly formed team. Coach John Wilcher commented on the new team's success, "Winning the conference in our very first year was a tremendous achievement: The girls all worked very hard, and I am especially proud of our four Seniors: Lisa Kizilay, Robin Skirboll and captains Mary McLaughlin and Nina Skattum." Other outstanding field players were Juniors Missy Fovel, Sarah Seiley, Sophomores Sue Scudder, Kathy Kuhan, and Freshmen Georganne Morin, Nellie Springer and Cheryl Bakey. Goal keepers Rhonda Moore and Sally Naser had four shutouts and each allowed less than two goals per game. Coach Wilcher commented, "They were perhaps the best tandem of goalkeepers in the NCAC." Eight of the girls made the NCAC All-Conference team and Goerganne Morin was voted the conference MVP Offensive player for 1985. Nellie Springer was the lead­ ing scorer with 28 goals and six assists for 62 points and Morin finished second in the league with eighteen goals N. Springer and G. Morin confer on strategy. and twelve assists for 48 points. Rhonda Moore was the top goalkeeper surrendering just eleven goals in eleven GEORGANNE MORIN games. The 1985-86 Women's Soccer team had clearly This was the first year of existence for the Lady Gators Soccer team, achieved "excellence." but they became NCAC champs and had many star members. One of these team players was Georganne Morin. Georganne was selected First Team NCAC All-Conference and Most Valuable Player, not only for the team but for the entire league. She was second on the Gator team and in the league in scoring. Georganne scored 48 points on 18 goals with 12 assists. Being from Mt. Lebanon, PA, a suburb of Pittsburgh, where they take their sports seriously, might have had an influence on Georganne. But her greatest influence may have come from Coach John Wilcher. Coach tapped the potential of Georganne and all the girls to complete a season that was designed for champions only. Georganne was one of those champions. What makes her accomplishments even brighter is the fact that Georganne is only a freshman. Georganne and the rest of the young E. Tucker controls the ball.

One would think this would be a very lonely sport, running for miles, only competing against yourself, but Susie sheds new light on the sport. "Sure, it provides me time to think, relax, but you form the closest bonds with others who run like you do. The friendships are more special. I like to win, I like to do well but its nicer to win with those you are close to. It's a good motivator." At four years of age, Susie began ballet lessons. She became an accomplished ballerina, dancing with a ballet company in Arizona for several years. Then, after shattering her tail bone four times, it was advised that Susie stop dancing, as there was a great risk of paralysis. To get rid of all that pent up energy, Susie's mom suggested she take up running. She has now run competively for seven years. Susie feels that running has provided many opportunities of meeting new people, going new places and getting to know herself personally. Buddies give much needed support. GATORS NO. 1 IN NCAC

The 1985 Volleyball season climaxed at the NCAC Tournament with the Gators rallying from behind to defeat Wooster in the Championship. Second seeded Allegheny lost in the second round to Wooster, in what was to be their only loss in the tournament. The Gators then tore through the loser's bracket defeating Kenyon, Ohio Wesleyan, and Case Western Reserve to earn a rematch with Wooster in the semi-finals. Outstanding performances by Gwen Herron, Amy Kissinger, Penny Hess, Sue Plyler, Amy Smith, Carol Frederick, Jamie Smartz, and Mary Kenzie paced the team. Herron, a Senior, was named Player of the Year for the North Coast Athletic Conference. In addition, she was named to the All-Conference team along with teammates Amy Kissinger and Amy Smith, both Seniors. Smith was also honored as an Academic All-American for the Eastern Region.

After a slow start against a tough non-conference schedule the Allegheny College men's basketball team put the pieces together in the North Coast Athletic Con­ ference. Coach John Reynders' Gators finished in a tie for first place in the conference with a 9-3 record — identical to the mark posted by Ohio Wesleyan. Overall the Blue and Gold logged a 16-10 record. It came down to a heart stopping Monday night in February when the Gators needed the win against Case and Ohio Wesleyan had to lose to Kenyon in order for the Gators to obtain the NCAC Title. Gators came through with a 81-66 victory over Case Western. Later that evening, the score was phoned to Coach Reynders — Kenyon won, 86-83. The Gators would host the NCAC Championship. The Gators went on to a disappointing loss in the last game of the championship, ending second. The team was built around the perimeter shooting of Brian Stadnik and Dave Katz and a stingy zone defense. Gators position themselves under the net. left: Brian Stadnik ended the season with a total 489 points Stadnick sinks another one. scored, 199 rebounds and averaging 19.6 points per game. Stadnik was a First Team All-Conference selec­ tion. Dave Katz had scored 215 points, averaging 8.9 point a game with a total of 80 assists.

He definitely was a factor in the Gators winning the NCAC title and hosting the championship. Allegheny basketball's major dilemma is who is to fill the shoes of Bill Mills. It will be a tough job to live up to Mills achievements on the court at Allegheny. He was always there when he was needed, ready to play and make the baskets. Not a flashy player, Bill always got the job done. The Gators say good luck to a star player reluctantly. Your absence in the starting line up will be noticed and felt on the court.

But unlike what the record may suggest, the Gator wrestlers had many high points. Among them were outstanding wrestlers like Senior Dan Goodrum, a co-captain and motivating wrestler. He had an injury early in the season which kept him out of action for a while, but he hung in there. Sean Carmody was also a co-captain and had a good year. He placed in many of the tournaments and compiled over a .500 record. The last co-captain was Jeff Payne who had an exceptional year. Winning the first three tournaments of the year, Payne proved to be a strong wrestler, who earned an All- American status at Nationals, placing seventh. Jim Cessna, a sophomore, proved to be an outstanding wrestler. By the end of the season, he had placed in most of the tournaments he entered and had a strong third place finish at regionals. Freshman Tony Pendolino also had an outstanding year, placing in the top six in all six tournaments this season. His best finishes were second at Lebanon Valley, third at Olivet, Ithaca, and Ohio Northern.

A SPECIAL BREED OF ATHLETE

Courtesy of the Campus Risk, fear, intensity, perfection, dedication — these are some of the emotions and attitudes that rule the lives of a special breed of athlete. Allegheny is fortunate enough to be able to boast of a nationally recognized group of such athletes. The Allegheny Diving Team ended its season in March with an All-American list of accomplishments. After a schedule of ten regular meets, Coach Tim Riggs took his team of seven freshmen and sophomore divers to C.T. Branin Natatorium in Canton, Ohio for the NCAA Division III National Meet. Women divers competed March 5-8, and Men March 12-15. The top eight scorers in each event were named All-American. Freshman Beth Snyder placed ninth on the one meter board, qualifying here for Honorable Mention. Sopho­ more Stacey McCall placed 16th on one meter and 14th on three meter, qualifying here for Honorable Mention in both events. For the men, Sophomore Keith Lazarcheff placed Second on one meter and fifth on three meter, making him All-American in both events and an overall four-time All-American. Freshman Tom Simpson placed seventh on three meter, giving him an All-American title, and 20th on one meter. Simpson's back two-and-a-half somersault was the highest scored dive at the meet with 67 points. Aside from his team members' All-American standing, Riggs said the highlight of his season was reached in the NCAC Conference Meet at Oberlin College in February, Keith Lazarcheff — Four time All-American, where Lazarcheff placed first, Simpson third, holds NCAC three meter record 503.95/NCAC Kuzma fourth in one meter event. champion on one meter.

The 1985-86 Baseball team had a disappointing season. Coach Creehan commented "We were all hoping to finish stronger in the NCAC. I felt this was a contending year, not a building year. Injuries and weather con­ ditions played a part in our inconsistent play." Incon­ sistent was the word for this year's team. In four game weekends, the Gators could not pull off a sweep, losing one or two games every time. Although the team's performance was less than ex­ pected, individual players' performance was great. Seniors George Panebianco and Fran Troyan finished their college careers off well. George was at bat 110 times with 36 hits, scoring 33 times and bringing in 16 runs. He had three homeruns, two triples and eight doubles. Although Fran was injured during the season, he finished with a .329 batting average. He scored twelve runs and batted nine runs in. Allegheny's greatest hope for next year is Eddie Taylor. Eddie batted a .333 average, stole fifteen bases, brought in 25 runs and scored 34 times. He hit four homeruns, the highest for the team.

Defensively, she only committed three errors to have a fielding percentage of .958. When you watched any of these ladies play, you were in for an exciting adventure.

Nelson would nail one between second and third. All three of these ladies deserve the All-American honor. Their performance was simply spec­ tacular. ■ ■

GOLFERS — NCAC CHAMPIONS

The Gator Golfers had a very good year, placing first in the NCAC Tournament and ninth in the NCAA Champi­ onship Tournament. Three of the golfers were named to First Team All Conference — Scott Sundstrom, Fred Eames and Rob Leppert while Dave Chuba was named to Second Team. The Gators had to come from behind to win the NCAC Tournament. After the first round of play, the Gators were behind only Wooster. During the second round, the Gators came back to a two stroke lead. Fred Eames and Scott Sundstrom led the comeback, shooting 76 and 77 respectively. The Gators maintained this lead through the final round to become the NCAC champs. Accepting the NCAA bid for the tenth year in a row, Sundstrom's Gators placed ninth in the Nationals. Along with being named All Conference, Co-Captain Fred Eames received All American Honors, Most Valuable Player, and Academic All American. Fred had a 77.6 stroke average with a low round of 71. Co-Captain Scott Sundstrom also shot well during the season. He tied for third in the NCAC's and shot a low round of 75. Three second year lettermen provided some good shots for Allegheny.

Lets hear it for the Gators! One of the Gators' biggest fans for football and basketbalal are the Gator Cheerleaders. The Cheerleaders support the teams through thick and thin, warm or cold weather, winning or losing seasons — they are there. Contrary to popular belief, the Gator Cheerleaders are more than just a bunch of air head blonds in short skirts (There's brunettes too.) No, like any of the sports they cheer for, the Cheerleader must maintain a 2.0 GPA, attend summer camp, all practices and all sports functions. This means alot of hard work. For the first time, the Cheerleaders went to camp to prepare for the 85-86 football season. For seven days, the girls got up at 6:30 a.m. to eat and be on the field by 7:30 for nonstop cheering, dancing and mount building until 10:00 p.m. Here they received two blue ribbons and one red for their excellence in performance. The girls need strength, flexibility, coordination and the willingness to stand behind their Gators. Time is a major factor in performance. During football season, the Cheerleaders practice five days a week for two hours. Row 1: Danni Moran, Barb Kevish, Erin Daugherty, Tammi Roschi. Row 2: Megan McArdle, Sharyn Trkula, Jeri Saturday, for three hours, they are cheering at the Love. games. Travelling time and overnight trips must also be scheduled in. Basketball season offers two games a week, practice times and travelling. Not only must a cheerleader be able to balance during routines, they must also be able to balance their time. All this hard work and dedication pays off when the crowd applauds for a successful mount. You will see the Cheerleaders at every game, giving it their all for a team they love. "Go Gators!" has special meaning to these girls. They love their Gators!!

The following is courtesy of CAMPUS — Meg Powers and Sara Potter Allegheny's fencing team took 6 of 11 individual placings at the Allegheny Fencing Open Competition. Competitors represented Pennsylvania State University, Case Western Reserve, West Virginia University, Cleveland High School and Allegheny. Peter Fix, of Allegheny, finished first in the Men's In­ termediate class. Herbert James, Case Western Reserve, finished second, and Bill Moody, Allegheny, was third. Chadd Nesbit, an Allegheny freshman, placed first in the men's novice event. Eric Schwerer also an Allegheny freshman, placed second. Third place went to James Shoup of Penn State University. Women's competition was not divided into novice and intermediate classes due to lack of participation. Claudia Woods of Case Western finished first, Allegheny College senior Tracy Croll took second. Allegheny sophomore Virginia Adkins placed third. The preliminary competition consisted of one pool of men. Each member of a pool fenced or bouted, with everyone else in the same group. The top five fencers from each pool then moved up into the double elimina­ tion round. The club has had one team meet this year, which they lost by one bout, and went to two open tournaments, where President-elect Chadd Nesbit said they did well. The Gator fencers have made great strides for im­ provement for the following years. The fencers have put together a network of contacts that allows the club to gain information and experience with their sport. For next year, there will be three student instructors, Susie Levis, Peter Fix and Eric Schwerer, as well as outside experts coming in. Hopes are high for increased enrollment and performance for the coming year. HOCKEY TEAM FINISHES THIRD

Allegheny College Hockey team finished third in their division this year with a 5-9-1 record. Allegheny qualified for the play-offs for the first time in several years. They lost, though, in the first round to I.U.P. by a score of 6-1. Outstanding players included Juniors Matt Hughes, Captain, and Tom Klein.

ORGANIZATIONS CLUB & ORGANIZATIONS

Allegheny Christian Outreach Allegheny Christian Outreach (A.C.O.) is a student led non- denominational Christian fellowship group that was begun at Allegheny by the Coalition for Christian Outreach in 1971. The goal of A.C.O. is to provide as many learning opportunities as possible for students to under­ stand more clearly what it means to be a Christian in the fullest sense. This involves learning how to develop a Christian perspective that affects the way text books are read, the way television and movies are watched, the way games are played, the way all the academic disciplines are viewed, as well as the way Scripture is interpreted and acted upon. A.C.O. meets as a large group every Friday evening to sing, worship, and to listen to a speaker who is brought in from as far as Pittsburgh. In addition to the weekly Friday night times of fellowship, A.C.O. organizes Bible Studies in every dorm, offers discipleship groups, prayer groups, social activities, and plans a Fall and Spring weekend retreat. During win­ ter term, A.C.O. participates in the Jubilee Conference held at the Hilton Hotel in Pittsburgh. This conference gives students a much broader opportunity to develop a Christian perspective in their major.

Allegheny College Choir The Allegheny College Choir is more than just another musical group, on campus. Since its inception in 1930, under the baton of Dr. Morton J. Luvaas it has been dedicated to pursuing musical excellence. The reper­ toire includes pieces by Bach and Brahms and more modern spirituals. The choir usually performs two or three times a year. Working together for three times a week fosters a feeling of camaraderie within the group which makes for "one big happy family." Choir tours to Chicago, Florida, Pittsburgh, and Cleveland are an added plus . . . Especially under the baton of Dr. Ward Jamison, it can't be helped that close bonds of friendship are formed which add to one's total college experience. Allegheny Community Exchange Allegheny Community Exchange (ACE) is an organization designed to encourage student involvement in the Meadville community. Each year over ninety students volunteer their time and services to eleven different groups and organizations established in the area. Some divisions of ACE include United Cerebral Palsy, Crawford County Home, Headstart, and Pet Therapy. The amount of time put into the program is up to the volun­ teer, so a comfortable schedule can be worked into the weekly course load. The returns of giving oneself to these volunteer groups are well worth the effort. The benefits of ACE are manyfold. The Meadville community gains support for their organizations through college participation as well as gaining insight into the type of student that Allegheny enrolls. Student volunteers benefit from the change in routine volunteering brings. Work experience gained through the programs can be used towards broaden­ ing career prospectives. Generally, helping others is a great way to make you feel good about yourself! CLUB & ORGANIZATIONS

Allegheny Literary Review The Allegheny Literary Review is a student organization whose aim is to provide a literary outlet for the undergraduate writer— an all too often overlooked contributor to and reflection of the current modes of society. Allegheny Review strives to provide this voice of our peers through two annual publications; Allegheny Review and Allegheny Literary Review. Published in the spring of each year, these publications reflect the grow­ ing, living, and dying joys and plans of one of the most vibrant cross sections in American society. Allegheny Review, now in its fourth year of publication is a national journal of undergraduate poetry and short fiction. By providing the only national source of outlet and communication of writers with their peers, this quality journal has rapidly placed Allegheny on the literary map. Allegheny Literary Review, in its 97th year in 1986, is the traditional expressive voice of Allegheny students, featuring poetry, short fiction, and artwork drawn solely from the work of Allegheny students.

Allegheny Student Education Association The Allegheny Student Education Association (ASEA) is sponsored by the Education Department, and is advised by campus based members of that department. Students both inside and outside the education program are welcomed in the club. ASEA is dedicated to identifying programs of educational interest and enrichment for both the Allegheny and Meadville communities. ASEA raises its own funds and elects its own offices. Lunch table dis­ cussions are held with faculty, students and administration about topics of educational interest on campus. The organization serves the elemen­ tary and secondary educational and professional interests of the members of the college as well as those of the local community. Events sponsored by ASEA have included the program "Sex Education Without Using the Word Sex," a Valentine's Day party for underprivi­ leged Meadville children, and dinners with departmental faculty.

Allegheny Student Government Allegheny Student Government seeks to serve the Allegheny College community in a variety of ways. Consisting of an Executive Cabinet to advise the President and a Legislative Council which makes all final decisions, ASG provides a forum for discussing and solving student's concerns. One important function is the budgeting of Allegheny's student-run activities, including the campus media, club sports, and spe­ cial interest organizations. The source of this money is the portion of student activity fees which ASG receives from the college. ASG also provides input on a wide range of College policy: the proposed curricu­ lum changes, the Strategic Plan, and the Presidential Search process. ASG provides other services to Allegheny students as well. The Student Test Files were returned to the library after a year's absence for much needed updating. A campus directory consisting of all student's rooms, address, and phone number is distributed free of charge. The Concert Committee presents a national musical act once each year. In addition, ASG provides buses to major eastern cities during breaks. Although not always the most visible organization at Allegheny, ASG CLUB & ORGANIZATIONS

provides a variety of services for the benefit of the student body. Allegheny Wind Symphony The Wind Symphony is an 85 member group which performs original works for symphonic band and wind ensemble several times a year. Guest conductors and soloists work with the Wind Symphony, allowing members to experience and experiment with the various musical styles and techniques. In addition to the on-campus performances, the Wind Symphony has toured widely, performing for public schools and colleges in the eastern United States. There are also exchange concerts with other colleges and assembly programs at public and private schools. Members are selected by auditions held at the beginning of each academic year, as well as through special appointment throughout the year. Selection of personnel is dependent on instrumental needs. The Allegheny Wind Ensemble is a 40 member group established from auditions within the Wind Symphony. The Ensemble shares appearances with the Symphony in concert and on tour. Alpha Phi Omega Alpha Phi Omega stands for Leadership, Friendship and Service. A national co-ed fraternity, Alpha Phi Omega is affiliated with the Boy Scouts of America. They operate the used book exchange, usher at C.C. special events, and sponsor the Bloodmobile. They also display the ride board in the Post Office, and help other organizations with fund-raisers. Chi Sigma chapter of Alpha Phi Omega has been providing service to our college, community, and our nation since 1971. On May 22, 1986, Alpha Phi Omega celebrated their fifteen year anniversary, and will no doubt continue to be successful in the future. Association of Black Collegians The Association of Black Collegians was established in the spring of 1969. The fundamental purpose of A.B.C. was to promote interracial un­ derstanding, cultural identity, and unity among blacks. A. B.C.'s primary goals are the promotion of scholarship, leadership, knowledge, and un­ derstanding of black culture within the Allegheny College community. A.B.C. carries out its objectives by sponsoring various workshops, rap sessions, films and lectures throughout the school year. In February, A.B.C. holds its celebration of Black History Month, during which students are involved in acquainting the college community with the con­ tributions made by blacks in the areas of education, politics, and the arts. While these functions focus primarily on black contributions, member­ ship in A.B.C. is open to the entire Allegheny student population, and all A.B.C. sponsored events are open to the entire college community. The Campus Allegheny's Campus is a completely student-run newspaper. Open to all interested students, it is the primary sounding board for the college community. The paper provides opportunities for writers, editors, lay­ out artists, and photographers to gain experience. The Campus primarily covers college and local news, and is open for CLUB & ORGANIZATIONS

letters for its opinion columns, editorial page, and features. Editors and assistants are chosen each term, and are paid positions. The Editorial Board is also selected each term, although members receive no wages. The Board provides a unique opportunity to learn about campus news and opinions. Chemii Chemii is a student organization affiliated with the American Chemical Society. Chemii offers students the opportunity to get to know the profes­ sors of the Chemistry Department. The club's two main objects are: 1) to enlarge the scope of chemistry orientated experiences available to Allegheny College and the Meadville community, and 2) to advise and assist the Chemistry Department. Chemii also provides information to its members on internships, graduate schools and career opportunities.

Circle K Circle K Club, affiliated with the Meadville Kiwanis Club, provides service at the local and international levels. As members of a nationally known organization, members of Circle K have the opportunity to partici­ pate in various state-wide events held each year. The club's members ■ 0 1 plan several projects and fundraisers through the year. Projects have in­ cluded sponsoring a child through the Christian Children's Fund, a post­ er sale, and the annual 5K roadrace. Circle K meets weekly, and all interested students are welcome. Dave White, a representative of the Meadville Kiwanis, is club coordinator and the faculty advisor is Dr. Alex Dale. International Club The International Club is an organization that started in the academic year 1985-86. Inspired by foreign students wanting closer links with each other, the International Club held its first meeting early in October of 1985. In two short months it had expanded enormously, and now has a membership of more than 100 people. The purpose of the International Club is "promoting international awareness and unifying the international students with each other and with U.S. citizens." Another purpose the club serves, for those who become actively involved, is to offer everyone a wider perspective of the world by finding out about other countries— what it feels like to be in that country — without taking a class about that country. Talking with others is a simple, easy way of learning. Kaldron Established in 1889, the Kaldron is Allegheny's student yearbook. Work on the Kaldron begins first term, and continues throughout the year. The yearbook contains candid photos of students and faculty, senior portraits, clubs, organizations, and athletic teams, and coverage of the various special events which take place throughout the year. The Kaldron seeks students who are interested in photography, copy writing, layout, and advertisement sales. No experience is necessary to obtain a position on the staff. This year's staff is headed by Megan CLUB & ORGANIZATIONS

McArdle, Suzie Carmack, Todd Shoonover, Lisa Morris and Arnel Balceita.

Lambda Sigma Allegheny's Lambda Sigma is the Epsilon chapter of a national honorary organization of sophomores. It revolves around the themes of scholarship, leadership, fellowship, and service. Fifty incoming sopho­ mores are selected each year by academic achievement, and personal in­ terviews. Lambda Sigma's activities during the fall have included freshmen big brother/sister adoption, freshmen move-in, ushering at college functions, monthly birthday celebrations at the nursing home, and creating the student home address books for Allegheny. JI-STY Our chapter was recently designated as an Honor Chapter at a national board meeting.

:«} NATION Orchesis Orchesis, the dance organization of Allegheny College, is student run and choreographed, and open to all. It produces new performances each year as well as sponsoring various dances open to the entire campus, such as a sock hop, a country dance, and a winter waltz. As an extension of Orchesis, workshops and residencies are offered by master teachers. Some of these residencies are jazz, tap, modern dance, ballet, and the creative process and have in the past featured Erick Hawkins, Bill Evans Dance Co., and Elizabeth Maxwell of the Laura Dean Dancers and Musicians. Allegheny Repertory Dance (ARD) is comprised of student dances who attend class or study regularly under master teachers in residence in the college dance programs. ARD preserves and performs professionally choreographed works. ARD is artfully guided by Jan Hyatt, Allegheny College dance instructor.

Outing Club The Outing Club is essentially for the entire college community (Faculty and students). It organizes and leads a variety of trips and activi­ ties, including backpacking, camping, rock climbing, skiing (cross­ country), canoeing, hiking, sky diving, white water rafting, and many more. Last fall, the Outing Club took about 20 people white water rafting on the Youghiogheny River, and in the spring they took a trip on the Cheat River in West Virginia. The Outing Club also rents out equipment to interested parties year round. Student Alcohol Board The SAB is a student organization not against drinking, but hoping to encourage those people who do make the decision to drink, to do so responsibly. They are a resource group on campus, to whom students can go to talk about anything, from concern over someone's drinking problem (and re­ ceive guidance as to where to receive help), to their concerns about Allegheny's alcohol policy. The SAB has an office in the Campus Center which is staffed Tues.-Thurs. evenings so that members are available to CLUB & ORGANIZATIONS

the student body.

Student Experimental Theatre Student Experimental Theatre, more commonly known as S.E.T., is the student run theatre organization on campus. S.E.T. made its debut in the 1960's and has contributed many hours of entertainment to the college students and the residents of Meadville, producing full length productions, one-act plays, monologues and sponsoring dance groups. The purpose of this organization is to better equip the student, whether novice or experienced, with "on hand" experience for all aspects of the theatre. Our goal is to help and learn from one another while enjoying what we are doing, as we create a theatrical production. This 1985-86 year, S.E.T. sponsored workshops, in helping to under­ stand all aspects of the theatre, and with this knowledge there will be many productions to follow. Anyone interested in working on a show in any aspect is encouraged to attend meetings and submit ideas.

Tri-Beta Biological Society Tri-Beta Biological Society is an honor society for those students in­ terested in the biological sciences. The Phi Epsilon chapter at Allegheny College received its charter in November of 1984, with 44 charter members. Their activities include service to the biology department, field trips, sponsoring speakers, and social activities within the society. Dr. Christine Nebiolo advises the current membership of 79 active and asso­ ciative members. WARC Student Radio WARC, 90.3 FM, founded in 1963, is Allegheny's progressive, non­ commercial radio station. Located on the second floor of Cochran Hall, WARC is owned by the Allegheny Trustees and operated by members of the college community. Each term there are over 100 students and faculty members who take part in WARC, as disc jockeys, newscasters, production staff, publicity organizers, and managers. Training sessions are held at the beginning of each term, and upon completion of training, anyone is eligible to work at the station. The format of the station is determined by the D.J.'s taste. Programs focus on anything from blue-grass and jazz, to avante-garde and new wave music, but primarily on progressive. Classical music is played Sun­ day afternoon and early evening. The main purpose of WARC is to provide listeners with an escape from commercials and strictly Top 40 radio. News and sports are also part of WARC's programming. Four newscasts are offered each day, with stories of local interest, as well as national news from the station's AP teletype machine. GREEKS Delta Tau Delta strives towards unity and brotherhood through numerous activities house — and campus-wide. One of their biggest projects of the year is the walk in which they raise thousands of dollars A for a deserved charity. L P H A

C H Alpha Chi Omega is a social sorority whose bond of sister­ hood spans the one hundred and twenty-six chapters across the country. Our sorority was established October 15, 1885 at DePauw Unversity in Greencastle, Indiana. I This past October, each chapter celebrated its Centennial birthday in their own special way. At Allegheny, they held a balloon release during the homecoming football game, followed by an alumnae reception at the David Mead Inn. In honor of Alpha Chi's birthday, collegians and alumnae have donated almost $90,000 to the Alpha Chi Omega Foundation which supports Cystic Fibrosis, McDowell Colony for artists O and the Easter Seals Foundation. Allegheny's Alpha Chi's are pioneers in the sorority. They were the fourth chapter established which makes it a Delta M Chapter. They strive for academic ex­ cellence, leadership abilities, finan­ cial responsibility and personal development. Delta has had many E successes while reading for her goals. This year they received the Panhellenic scholarship plaque, won the homecoming float, and the members were involved in G over forty activities on campus, many holding officer positions. Allegheny's Alpha Chi's not only enjoy the social aspects of A sister hood but work together to develop the group as well as each individual's fullest potential. They follow the motto 'Together Let Us Seek The Heights." A L P H A

D Alpha Delta Pi has been a part of Allegheny College for only three years. However, through participation and use of individual talents, Alpha Delta Pi has been a service to E both the community and the college. Through projects such as the "Men of Allegheny" calendar, to raise money for the Ronald McDonald Houses, and the Walk-a-thon to benefit the D.T. Watson Hospital, ADPi has contributed to the L community. Contributions to Allegheny College include participation in the Can Drive for Associated Charities, and the Annual Phon-a-thon, which supports the Allegheny Fund. Alpha Delta Pi's also serve as part of Allegheny's staff T of resident assistants, participate in Allegheny's Student Government, varsity and intramural sports, music ensem­ bles, and Panhellenic council. Members are also involved in the pre-legal advisory committee, VISA, Strategic Planning A and the Alcohol Student Task Force. Perhaps the main goals of Alpha Delta Pi are philan­ thropic contributions, as well as promoting higher academic achievement, and sisterhood through our chapter as well as extending our positive attitude to others. Annual functions include Fall, Winter, and Spring socials which are occasions production of the "Men of Allegheny" calendar which for sisters to spend relaxing together and just having fun! (hopefully) will become an annual event to benefit the The newest addition to Alpha Delta Pi's activities is the Ronald McDonald House. P The Allegheny chapter of Phi Delta Theta had a productive 107th year. With Chris Mason serving as President, the Phi Delts were awarded the fraternity's National Founder's Trophy in 1985. The brothers also kept up their traditions of excelling in college and intramural sports and of involvement in various forms of campus leadership. Allegheny's Phi I Delts are going strong! mwnm A L The fraternity of Phi Gamma Delta, the second fraternity to P appear on Allegheny's campus, is a dynamic

■ I fraternity. The FIJIs are H involved in many facets of Allegheny life, including sports, student organizations A and residence life. The FIJIs are well known for their strong promotion of school spirit as they proudly wear their purple and white to various sporting events. The future of Phi Gamma Delta is G looking brighter than ever, and through dedication and hard work, the Fraternity will A continue to be a positive asset to Allegheny.

A For 105 years, Mu chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta has marked two firsts in Allegheny's Greek tradition. Established nationally in 1870, Theta is the first national greek-letter fraternity for women. Theta added its spirit of tradition to Allegheny's in 1881 to become the first women's fraternity on T campus. Theta works to promote unity within a social group through the individuality of its members. Theta's Balloon Launch, its annual Theta Classic H tennis tournament benefitting Greenhouse, and its participation in the all greek Can Drive for the city of Meadville are just a few ways these women work E together to serve the college and the community. Fall Party, Pledge Formal, and Gape-and-Flame with Kappa Kappa Gamma in the T spring aren't the only good times! Second place in The Pennsylvania Beta chapter of Phi Kappa Psi was founded at Allegheny in 1855. It was the first fraternity at the homecoming float competition with Phi Psi's, Allegheny and has the longest continuous existence of all Phi Kappa Psi chapters. Phi Kappa Psi strives toward in­ road trips to Theta Cottage on the Erie shore and to tellectual as well as spiritual excellence and takes great pride in its strong relationship with Allegheny's faculty and A Penn State chapter, fraternity mixers, sorority study administration. Phi Psi's are involved in many facets of the Allegheny community such as varsity sports, ASG, Lambda breaks — for service and for fun, Theta always Sigma, and IFC, to name a few. For the past three years, the All-Greek party during Greek Week has been held at the Phi shines through close friendships that come from a Psi house and each spring the chapter holds its annual Phi Psi "500," a 5K road race benefitting a Meadville charity. Phi special bond of love. Kappa Psi feels that extracurricular activities while at college are equally as important as scholastics in building the character of a well-rounded individual. apcp,, -* i: Kl A p! p I a | k : a p Kappa Kappa Gamma is a fraternity of women united by the benefits of friendship and love. This group is p motivated by positive ideals which inspire each in­ dividual, who in return shares with the group someth­ ing of worth. It's a circle of giving and sharing by learning and growing together. A Founded at Allegheny in 1888, Kappa Kappa Gamma is the second oldest sorority on campus and the current largest in size. The light and dark blues can be seen throughout Allegheny, as a group supporting campus events, and through its individuals participating in a wide variety of organizations. G This ever-broadening circle grows past the college campus and into the community with philanthropy projects such as a car A wash for the Meadville Soup Kitchen

and an annual balloon derby. ^ tn "a cri 1 Kappa Kappa Gamma continues to M uphold the ideals of the fraternity, as well as Allegheny College as a Sigma Alpha Epsilon founded in 1887 at Allegheny has the largest number of initiates of all national fraternities in whole.

One day at a time This is enough. Do not took, back and grieve over the past, for it is gone; about the future, for it has not yet come;

Live in the present, and make it so beautiful that it will be worthwhile rem em bering.
