I '*, It is with my great pleasure in providing you with the 2012-2013 Acropolis Yearbook, a yearly produced media that documents the history of this Quaker campus. This year's book has been dedicated to the 125th Anniversary of Whittier College and the 100th Anniversary of the Rock. Much has happened this school year, and we have done our best in providing a look back at 6 everything in celebration of this mark in our history. Editor-in-Chief As you will see running along the bottom of every page of this year's book is a historic timeline. We have spent all year gathering facts and pictures to show the history of our entirety here in Whittier. From our start as a city, our founders, the creation of Whittier Academy, to the beginning die c4q of Whittier College, all the way until now. Our hope is that you will find it informing and gain a sense of pride for being a part of the Poet family and legacy. Our college holds a lot of value, and sometimes, it needs to be recognized more often than not.

On a final note, congratulations to the graduating class of 2013! Whether you have been here for four years, or are a transfer student, you finished together this year and ended strong. You will be leaving behind your own history and footsteps for the underclassmen as you make your way into the real world. Whittier will always be your home, and we hope this book will help to document the greatness that you have left behind. Enjoy your hard earned degree and continue to strive further!

Built on the hillside edge of a dusty Western town and born of the vision and determination of the Quaker settlers of Whittier, California, this College has remained President of Whittier C'ollege true to its founding ambitions throughout its illustrious history. And if there is one characteristic that best defines our College and our graduates, it is leadership. Therefore, this year's theme is most fitting: Whittier College - 125 Years of Defining Leadership.

These special anniversaries have provided opportunities to celebrate Whittier's past and present. Whittier's longstanding strengths include faculty and staff who - across a century and more - have dedicated themselves to students' success. At this College, we also celebrate our distinctive diversity that enhances educational opportunities and makes Whittier a national model for campuses that will look like ours in the coming decades.

This year marks a propitious time of building on Whittier College's achievements and, with full appreciation of this longstanding mission, to move the College in directions that those celebrating our 150th anniversary will applaud. While I cannot envision precisely the Whittier of 25 years from now, I do know that we are preparing the College for an auspicious future.

We have ambitious plans for new academic and residential buildings and a new landscape guide designed to enhance the beauty and identity of our campus, with an eye to environmental sustainability. Most significantly, we are engineering new academic and co-curricular programs that will build on our proud tradition of innovation, particularly in interdisciplinary study and teaching that is central to wise citizenship, professional accomplishment, and an excellent education. Those who are reading this issue of the Acropolis just after its publication will one day return to the College and admire the enhancements that followed their time on campus.

Named after a poet who served as the conscience for the nation, this College adheres to our founders' mission to educate graduates to respect people of all backgrounds and nationalities; to serve community; and to listen to disparate voices, build consensus, and act with integrity. Whittier is a venerable institution and together, we have achieved much in the past 125 years. And our graduates are taking the Light of Learning that was ignited here to communities all over the globe. 1906 1945 Students at Whittier Academy Whittier's Victory Ship, launched pose for the camera. after the Allies were victorious in Europe and the U.S. was gear- ing up the war in the Pacific.

The Rock. A famous landmark not only for the college, but also for the Whittier community as well, has become the heart and tradition of this campus. This year, I' alumni of the Lancer Society paid to have the Rock moved away from the Campus ' Center building so that passing people and students could see it better from Painter Avenue. How the Rock came to our campus was the great story of three senior men Llt (Frank Crites, Milton White, and Nofle Renneker) bringing this huge boulder to Viewing the original rock, we see how it was Laura Wright, a fellow Poet, campus in 1912 in Austin's flatbed horse-drawn wagon.

Eventually, the Rock continued another tradition of the burning of the Rock, helping to take off some of the paint build up to keep it relatively the same original size. Of course, with the possession of this Rock also comes the pranks that other schools have done on us. For example, students from Occidental decided to make it seem as though the Rock had been stolen by digging a hole next it the Rock, but putting all of the dirt on top of the Rock. It was chaos but looking back, we can have a good laugh about it. In moving of the Rock this year, we also saw how much history was in the paint that came off of the Rock. Looking at the right of this section, we see history brought forth through the many layers of paint that has been put on this Rock. Students had an opportunity to grab a piece for themselves here and there of what seemed to be trash. Most of the salvaged layers were sold at this year's Homecoming booth by the Lancer Society as a fundraiser. With this new change, the Rock will be here for another 100 years, giving new stories to future students and a new perspective on what are dear and representative of this school. The Rock will forever be in the hearts of all fellow Poet students and at the heart of this school.

Every year, new students flood the freshmen residence halls to continue their educational experience and to open up a new chapter of their lives. Not to mention the amount of commuter students that also entered this year as freshmen, taking 40% of the student population. This year, 429 new students were introduced to Whittier College, as peer mentors and volunteers helped move in these new students. Orientation, as we have all experienced, is a week jam- packed with back to back events and teachings of what to expect at Whittier and as a new college student. These freshmen entered Whittier College on its 125th year of being open, sporting the new shirts, worn by both the new students, as well as the volunteers and peer mentors. There were a lot of events that happened this past school year to commemorate such a success, giving the new students a taste of why Whittier College is such a great school to be at. Whittier College and its students will continue to strive for nothing but the best and we wish these The freshmen class of 2016 follows students luck over their next three years of hard work and dedication to their along in singing the Whittier Alma Mater during Freshmen Convocation. education.

Whittier College students, when offered the chance to get involved in their communities, do so in a way that engages the entire campus community with activities that college students can have fun with and relate to. How does Whittier College respond to problems in our local community and society? The students do so through many diverse events and programs, ranging from participating in an already planned benefit walk to sleeping in the upper quad in cardboard boxes. In fact, this year there were many different ways to get involved. Many students were seen participating in such events as the AIDS Walk, Shanty Town, Helping Hands Day, Relay for Life, the Clothes- line Project, and many more events hosted by a variety of societies, clubs, and organizations on campus. Societies have also hosted many different community service events and help anywhere they can in the Whittier community. In addition to being involved in different services, they were also seen this year volunteering their time to assist the first year students in moving in to Stauffer and Johnson residence halls during orientation at the beginning of the year. Wearing their 125 Years of Leadership: Change Starts Here" t-shirts, they were carrying refrigerators and other possessions up to the residence halls in order to help the first year students start their college career with a smooth beginning. This sort of dialogue tends to actually characterize Whittier College community service events. Helping Hands Day, the largest community service event this year, brings together students to work with different local, non-profit organizations. Twenty-eight different non-profit organizations signed up this year as community partners and welcomed Whittier students into their offices to teach, mentor, and work together. Going strong for sixteen years, the event is organized according to peer mentor groups that each work with a different agency. Through participating in these various events on and off campus, students were really able to en- gage with the community, and not just "give back" with their actions, but also critically think about what they are doing.

),7: Amber Gonzales This past year there has been a wide variety of events by different kinds of groups. Not only have clubs and societies contributed to the wide variety but so A have other organizations such as Program Board, Media Council, Kpoet, and neske Photo ByGinge Quaker Campus. These events are usually intended on providing a quick get National Coming Out Day away from the usual hustle and bustle of the school, but have not just been lim- ited to these sorts of events. Other events challenge students intellectually such as Backpack to Briefcase, whereas others might offer a viewing of movies that bring opportunities to campus like no other. So what's new about this past 2012- 13 year? we have had a guest appearance and performance of the Smashing Pumpkins in our very own Campus Courtyard. Additionally, older events such as snow day have been revived and had been held in the upper-quad. This event has differed from the past in the sense where there were no professional snowboarders present but rather a wider variety of students who participated in playing in the snow. Lastly, several of the Societal dances hit record breaking numbers this past year. For instance, both the Athenian Society and the Wil- liam Penn Society had more than 500 students and guests appear at BlAckout and Penntronic. Other societies such as the Metaphonian Society revived their famous Wet n' Wild dance in the Campus Courtyard as well as the Franklin Society who brought the Toga Party to Whittier College's campus. The Sachsen Society also held Psychedelic Circus which was a success with Henna Tattoo's, live entertainment and a whole lot of fun. w dance, which happened at the Uptown venue Memories, had a great turnout of Poets, as every- one was sporting their glow sticks and white clothing.

This past March there was a worldwide release of Hunger Games and with the film a famous quote was born and used as the motto during this year's Sports- Fest. "May the odds, be ever in your favor" says the infamous Effie Trinket as the young tributes enter the Hunger Games. Much like the Hunger Games SportsFest has been around for 21 years and has offered several different intramural sports as a means of friendly competition and a test of skills. Sports fest has been held annually and over a span of three days on Campus and off. The teams much like districts are chosen via residence halls with the exception that the residence hall gets to pick their own creative team name. The Hunger Games film was chosen specifically for its content as a theme for this past year SportsFest. The film is about a broken country divided into 12 districts where annually there are 24 tributes, two from each district (one male one female), thrown into the Hunger Games to compete in an all out battle for their dear lives. This recurring Game for pride in their district parallels that of the pride won in a residence hall for SportsFest. In order to start SportsFest this past year and start it right, the campus held a special viewing of the Hunger Games asking trivia questions afterwards and in return each team was rewarded for answering questions correctly. While there are traditional sports played annually during SportsFest there are also other games held on campus that bring together all sorts of students. This included a foosball tournament, board game competition, and even a cake decorating competition. With any school wide event held on campus it is commonly known that there will be Quaker values instilled along with it. This means that Community Service is a must; not only to get students involved but to also raise awareness, have fun and help for a good cause. This past year students organized a blood drive, canned food drive and toy drive. Additionally, SportFest teams gathered money easily by standing outside of the Campus Inn with plastic jars filled with coins for Penny Wars. And just like every other year we had a female team and male team as the victors of SportsFest and this past years Hunger Games. The female victors were the Primroses, Wardman-Turner-Ball team as well as the Modest Waffle, Wanberg- Harris-Campbell's men's team. This past year was very successful in the sense where the students compete, have fun and gain a better sense of community. 1935 1936 Richard Nixon traveled with the From 1928 to 1936, the College library men's glee club in spring 1934.

Cassandra Leyba Whitter Weekend is the time of year when Poet families and alumni come and visit the college, socializing with each other at many events such as the reunion brunches for 1962, 1957, and 1987, the Society brunches, the Tail- gate Mixer, the 41st Annual Tardeada and Poet Mural Dedication event. Each of these events were very special to our alumni and they were very happy to reunite with each other. The campus center hosted the 1-2-5 Poet Birthday Bash, to celebrate the 125th anniversary of the school, where DJ Richard Blade played his music. Many of our alumni rocked out to songs they loved and reminisced about their college years and waited in line eagerly to put on some wacky accessories and take silly pictures in the photo booth located by our lockers. Along with the other festivities, there was also the Poet Family 5K Run/Walk, in which many Poets and the Whittier community joined and had lots of fun. They dressed up in purple and gold together just before the tailgate to show their Poet pride. The school also acknowledged three of our professors that have dedicated so much of their precious time to our be- '1 loved college. Professor Fred Bergerson spent 41 years, Professor Michael McBride spent 43 years, and Professor John Neu spent 41 years dedicated to the college making for a total of 125 years, which was quite an interesting discovery that was made for this year. This weekend was nothing but fun for the Poet community.

Wake up an hour and a half before your first class. Get ready. Eat breakfast. Gather your textbooks. Drive. Traffic. Finally arrive. Oh! Can't forget about parking. Found one? Good. Now it is finally time for class. For some Whittier College students, all of these events occur before eight in the morning. Approximately 40 percent of Whittier College students commute to the college campus. These 40 percent experience this morning or afternoon process before they even step foot onto our campus. The commuter life is a busy one. A commuter does not simply go to Whittier College to attend classes and then head home as soon as they are done. Just as students who live on campus are involved in clubs, sports, and various activities, commuters are as well. Classes, meetings with professors, club meetings, sport practices, volunteer work, and internships consume the commuters' daily lives. The Commuter Student Association is a group of Whittier College students dedicated to providing WC commuter students with opportunities for unity and voice on campus, as well as scholarly support, social enrichment, and encouragement to participate fully in their college experience. This group gives commuters the opportunity to meet one another and participate in various activities together.

..4 Bobbi Marie Mendoza As Poets we are all unique individuals we have different ma- jors, different, interest and different strengths, but dorming on the Whittier College campus is a factor that brings the student body together. It forms a community on campus, which allows students to become a closely knit together Poet family. This family is unique to every dorm and to every individual, but one thing is for certain ... it feels good to live on your own! Many students on campus make their room their second home by decorating it to their heart's content. Every room you walk into has a different vibe and really portrays their personality and where they come from. The dorm life alone is a whole other culture that grows throughout campus and is where many of them meet and stay friends for their entirety here while at Whittier.

The play opens as the student Lucentio arrives in Padua. He hears that the merchant Baptista has two daughters, but the younger, prettier daughter, Bi- anca, cannot be married before her strong-willed sister, Katherina. On seeing Bianca Lucentio falls in love with her and changes identities with his servant Tranio. Bianca already has two suitors, but doesn't like either. The elderly Gremlo hires Lucentio, disguised as a Latin tutor, to woo Bianca on his behalf, while Hortensio disguises himself as a musician to get access to her. Mean- while Petruchio, a young adventurer from Verona, arrives to visit hisfriend Hortensio. He learns about Katherina and decides to woo her, aided by both Gremio and Hortensio. Baptista is enthusiastic about Petruchio's suit because the feisty Katherina is a burden to him and is continually quarrelling with her sister and with him. Petruchio will not be put off as he woos Kate and he fixes their wedding day. At the church, where Kate unwillingly awaits him, Petruchio arrives in an absurd outfit and after the ceremony he leaves for Verona immediately, with his new wife. On reaching there Kate is mistreated by Petruchio and his servants, and is denied food and sleep. To teach her to obey him Petruchio does not allow her new clothes or a hat. Eventually, worn down by her husband's relentless eccentricity, Kate submits and accepts all his eccentricities. They set off to visit her father in Padua. On the journey the couple meet Vincentio, Lucentio's wealthy father, who is subjected to a strange conversation as Petruchio tests Kate's obedience. The three reach Padua where Hortensio, rejected by Bianca, has married a widow and Baptista has been tricked into believing a passing stranger is Tranio's rich father. While Vincentio attempts to unravel the complexities of the situation his son Lucentio returns from a secret wedding with Bianca. Nevertheless, Baptista holds a wedding feast for both his daughters. As the men relax after their meal Petruchio devises a competition to prove whose wife is the most obedient. Bianca and the widow fail to come to their husbands when called while Kate lectures the women on the duties of a wife.

The Theatre Department r4- While moments, environments and people from Tennessee Williams' actual life were woven into all of his literary creations, The Glass Menagerie is by far his most autobiographical play. The setting was inspired by a dark, cramped St. Louis apartment the Williams family inhabited after leaving Mississippi in 1918. Previously, Tennessee (then Thomas Lanier Williams Ill) spent his early childhood with his mother, Edwina, and older sister, Rose, living in a peaceful church rectory with Edwina's parents. The rectory was situated in a serene corner of Clarksdale, Mississippi; an area which Tennessee would later rename "Blue Mountain". Tennessee's father, Cornelius, who was at the time a traveling salesman, would only occasionally bluster in and disrupt the family's tranquil life before abruptly blustering off again. The situation worked well until Tennessee was eight, when it was decided that the family should break away from their beloved Mississippi sanctuary and live in St. Louis with Cornelius. The character of Amanda is Tennessee's speculation of what his mother would have become if her husband had left the family after depositing them in St. Louis. Tom and Laura's characters contain an amalgam of personality traits from both Tennessee and his sister, Rose. Tennessee had a fraternity brother by the name of Jim Connor, and an actual event with a gentleman caller occurred in the Williams' household. After it was clear that her daughter was succumbing to a mental instability, Edwina became convinced that Rose could be cured with a suitor—whom Tennessee was recruited to supply. (It is uncertain if Jim Connor was the actual gentleman caller, or if only his name was used.) Tennessee battled his own anxiety and depression, which he labeled "blue devils", with an incessant compulsion to write. Many of those who knew him mused that not even the smallest scrap of paper was safe while he was near. The Glass Menagerie evolved out of several earlier short stories and play fragments including, "Portrait of a Girl in Glass", "If You Breathe It Breaks" and "The Gentleman Caller". These stories contain, with vary- ing intensity, the common thread of a young woman on the verge of insanity. In The Glass Menagerie, that insanity has been replaced with a symbolic limp.

Picasso at the Lapin Agile is a play written by Steve Martin in 1993. It features the characters of Albert Einstein and Pablo Picasso, who meet at a bar called the Lapin Agile (Nimble Rabbit) in Montmartre, Paris. It is set on October 8, 1904, and both men are on the verge of an amazing idea (Einstein will publish his special theory of relativity in 1905 and Picasso will paint Les Demoiselles d'Avignon in 1907) when they find themselves at the Lapin Agile, where they have a lengthy debate about the value of genius and talent while interacting with a host of other characters. 1967 1978 In the "Rose Tattoo" by Vince Kolbe and Ron Tennessee Williams, Rybkowski stifle a yawn in Sarafina's lover leads "Lady's Not For Burning." goat through the Southern house.

Future Plans: "I am pursuing my masters degree in sports management at the university of San Francisco. However, like 10-15 years down the road I would ultimately like to work for the US Olympic committee and eventually the international Olympic committee. I would love to do programming of events or coordinate community outreach projects through these organizations."

Favorite Professor: "Dr. Kathy Barlow has been a huge support system. Words can not explain how much I appreciate her guidance and never ending support.

Role MOdel: A staff member of Whittier College that I really admire is Kerry Klima, the Assistant Director of LEAP. Kerry is the advisor for Media Council, which I have been a part of as both the QCTV and Media Council Senate Representative. She brings a lot of great new ideas, organization, and positivity that I admire a lot. She is also very helpful when it comes to organizing society events, which I do a great deal of for the Franklin Society. I really enjoy being able to express all these big and new ideas that I have, and while most people may be skeptical about them or pessimistic, Kerry is not. She is able to really help me figure out how to achieve my ideas the best way and is very optimistic. I believe these characteristics of hers are very important when it comes to your work in any field and those you work with.

"Traveling to the Auschwitz death camp would have to be my most memorable moment of my study abroad experience. It provided me satis- faction in pursuing a degree in history because it taught me first hand that an educated citizenry must learn from the past so they are not doomed to repeat it. However, I must stress that the daily ins and outs of living in a city with its distinct sense of history and culture has developed my self- consciousness in a way that supersedes any single moment. It is in this that "I always had the desire to spend a significant amount of time I am able to get the most out of my liberal arts education." out west. In my mind, the other side of the Mississippi has always represented this strong idea of innovation and freedom that somehow seemed so special, and even though I had some incredible and truly unforgettable experiences at Whittier, after some time, I realized that the west wasn't for me. However, with that being said, Whittier was a major transition period for me, and in my opinion, not only did that period assist me in furthering my goals, but it enabled me to thrive. I can definitely say that I have met some of the best people of my life out in California, and have added quite a load to my list of stories to share! Thank you again to those of you who were my Whittier experience."

With a better outcome this year than last year. the Poets dominated the field. This year, after six years, the Poet football team beat Occidental College and won back the shoes that we ever so deserve. These shoes, belonging to Myron Claxton of the class of '40 and an Orthogonian, have been a rivalry tradition since 1946. The shoes have been bronzed and put on a wooden trophy head to keep the tradition long running. 2 I

The women's basketball team has made big differences with their new head coach Elizabeth Stanley. The team got their first win on December and it was a very exciting moment for the basketball Poets since they were losing their previous games. This was a memorable day; winning the Pioneers of Pacific Union 58-43. Another big win for the poets was on their win of 50-42 victory over the Bison of Gallaudet University. A very intense game was with the California Institute of technology because it was an extremely close game. Their 57-54 victory over the Beavers of the California Institute of Tech- nology just made the winning cut for the women's basketball team. Not only are the Poets dedicated to their favorite sport, they also give back to their community. The team hosted an event where they invited the students from the 5th Dimension, a group of 7th graders from local middle schools, to Whit- tier College to get a taste of what college is about. The kids had a fun time playing basketball, meeting the team and coaches, and were very active. The team made this event off season because these ladies are always busy even off season as we can see. Keep up the good work ladies! Danrilka Navaies-Lugtu, sophomore, dodges her opponent to get a score.

Goal! The men's soccer team had an immense turn out this past fall, having their ups and downs, but finishing second in the SCIAC standings. The men's soccer team made it to the championship, making their fellow Poets proud of their hard work and exceptional attitude as a team. This year, they have won 10 out of the 12 games, representing our motto, "Fear the Poet." Adding on to their history as the soccer team, they successfully defeated the University of Redlands after three years of losses against them since 2009, winning with a score of 3-1. Being on a sports team is like having a large close-knit family, and that is exactly how the men's soccer team acts. With the majority of the team being international students, they add on to the diversity of the college, maintaining a close relationship with each other like a true Poet family. The head coach, Shea Harwell, assistant coach DJ Covarrubias, and graduate assistant Joey Gelaro, are all proud of their student athletes, and they strive for nothing but excellence for the team and their future as a team.

Cassandra Leyba This season was an interesting season for the Men's Swim and Dive team. There were some Whittier College record breakers this year as we inched closer to qualifying for the NCAA Championships. Filip Dajkovich, sophomore, broke the record of 00:21.29 seconds set by Manuel Sanchez in 2005, with a time of 00:20.66 this year at the 50-yard freestyle. His time was extremely close to qualifying for the NCAA Championships. Dajkovich got into the Top Ten Whittier Col- lege Records for the 100-yard freestyle, qualifying sixth with a time of 00:48.35 seconds. Jasen Massailidis, freshman, qualified eighth with a time of 00:48.45 seconds and Kevin Marquez, freshman, came in ninth with a time of 00:48.80. Massailidis also achieved a fourth for a time of 1:45.58 in the 200-yard freestyle and fifth with a time of 4:50.36 in the 500-yard freestyle. Kurt Holzmuller, sophomore, beat the number one time in 500-yard freestyle of 4:44.06 made by Camer- on Rehm in 2011, with a time of 4:40.06, as well as first in the 1000-freestyle with a time of 9:58.93 and 16:19.99 in the 1650-yard freestyle. Marquez made the top ten for Whittier in the 1000-yard freestyle, 10:51.71, and Daniel Cox, sophomore, made the top ten for Whittier in both the 1000-yard and the 1650-yard freestyles with respective times of 10:25.16 and 17:16.99. In diving, Garrett Hall, freshman, made number three in both the 1-meter (11 att) and 3-meter (11 att) in Whittier College Top Ten Diving Records with scores of 277 and 286.75 respectively.

Amber Gonzales ~* As per usual, Coach Justin Pudwill likes to challenge his players during their p pre-season by scheduling a grueling amount of games against nationally ranked Division I water polo teams. However, he does not lose sight of the actual SCIAC teams and schedules games against them as well, just to see how well his players are doing. The Poets started strong during their opening game with a victory over the Cal Tech Beavers (18-9). They continued to do well throughout the season with a winning streak of 5, defeating La Verne, Occidental, Red- lands, Cal Lutheran and Cal Tech. Their winning streak set an example to all of the teams on Campus bringing students of all different sorts together to cheer on their fellow poets. Our men's water polo team ended their season as 3rd in CIAC and several of the young men on the water polo team gained All SCIAC cognition as well. Douglas Marriott, freshman, made the Western Water Polo Association All-Freshman team and Goran Mataic, sophomore, gained a West- ern Water Polo Association Honorable mention.

Amber Gonzales Poets huddle together to talk about their game plan. With an exciting season this past year, the women's water polo team had a fr,r.rTii. rough start, but later proved themselves as they held a 6 game winning streak. Defeating well-known teams such as Occidental, Cal Lutheran, Redlands and La Verne. This 6 game winning streak led the Purple and Gold to be the number 3 seed in this year's SCIAC Championships. Their perseverance and love for the game placed them 3rd over all but that's not all. This year two of the female players gained All-SCIAC recognition. Cynthia Castillo, freshman, was awarded second team All-SCIAC recognition and Laurel Pinkley, junior, gained honorable mention garnering All-SCIAC recognition as well. Additionally. Whittier welcomed a new poet, Alyssa Rangel as a senior attacker for her final year of undergraduate studies. With Alyssa's experience she was able to mold the team into a closer-knit community and build an even stronger bond with her fellow poets.

Cassandra Leyba The Men's Tennis team had an excellent season during the 2012-2013 school year and, winning most of their games, played very strong. They entered the season with a win and ended the season with a win in the SCIAC Championships. Making the SCIAC Championships is a very good accomplishment, especially for our young tennis team, they have room to grow and this team is very promising for next year. David Konstantinov, freshman, was named Rookie of the Year by the hA (the International Tennis Association) and was the first male freshman in Whittier College history that was named into 1 rst Team in SCIAC. This strong player played in the 02 singles and teamed up with Julian Seneveratne, senior, in 1 rst doubles and got an excellent record. This is an example of how young and strong the team will be for next year and how they will continue to grow. Along with Konstantinov, Seneveratne and Chris Schommer, junior, and named into 2nd Team, were named into the top two teams in SCIAC. This is an admirable accom- I plishment for the Whittier College Poets!

The Poets do it again! Their dedication and practice always pays oft when the men's golf team goes to competitions. This was a great year for these Poets; Grant Robinson, sophomore, with many memories and awards. One memorable moment was when the men's swings to make a hole. golf team took part in the tn-match with Chapman University and Pomona-Pitzer LM at the California Country Club. Whittier tied with Chapman, but Chapman took the win for the highest score in the fifth player. Although we did not win, this game was still memorable according to the players. Another memorable moment was caused by a weather situation where the teams had to call it quits after ex- periencing severe wind conditions that reached up to 50 mph. What a great story to tell right? The team has some awesome players like senior Greg Garcia, who won by nine strokes in the Stroke Play Championships. He shot a total of 130 in two rounds; shooting 69 on both rounds. Very impressive poet we have, and we cannot forget about the rest of the players! Ricky Macias, Jaren McCartney, Grant Robinson, and Gevork Atoyan are also part of this team and contribute greatly to the Whittier College golf recognitions. They could have not of done all their work without the help of their coach Richard Kim and the assistant coach Jim Henry. With the help of the coaches and with this great team, the Whittier College men's golf team is going for the gold in the upcoming years.

The women's golf team is truly inspiring, showing that hard work and skills pay off. Whittier College introduced women's golf as 22nd Intercollegiate Sport. As the Whittier College sports website mentions, "We are really excited about the inclusion of women's golf to our athletic program. We felt it was a very important equity move in our department now giving the Poets' 11 men's and 11 women's sports, and, more importantly, it is consistent with the College's enrollment goals." As we can tell, this year has been very exciting for this team because they are starting off new. The women's golf team entered the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference for the first time joining Lutheran University, Occidental, University of Redlands, and Claremont Mudd-Scripps. Their first play our Poet women finished 4th place with an overall score of 397, awesome' work girls! Some of the players who made great improvement were, Ayaka Hamano, Erica Padilla, Kindra Woo, and Ashley Perez, who all scored above 80, very impressive! Woo and Hamano won some awards like earning the All- SCIAC honors. All the hard work and dedication these girls have put on their team has paid off because the players are earning awards and are shooting great scores. Although, they did not win first place they still did great finishing 6th place in the SCIAC Championships. The teamwork for these four players was amazing; although a small team they had great outcomes. They are ready for next year and the other teams will fear our Poets.

Cassandra Leyba This past season, the Men's Lacrosse Team had a rough season, with not very many wins, our fellow Poets struggled, but will continue to grow. They started out the season with an excellent force and then kept struggling. With a tough season like theirs (5 wins and 9 losses), it is extremely imperative that the team stays strong and are willing to continue working in order to get better, both individually and as a group. Our Lacrosse Poets worked hard through this season, even before their season had started. This year's 2012-2013 team was pretty young, but they played with heart, and they have a lot of room to grow, and have a lot of power and room to grow and get better as they prepare for next year's season.
