Many times around campus, there are groups of friends sitting and talking. In a tree behind Chase Hall, next to the bookstore and along the walkways are places where friends have gathered. Talking with friend is not the only thing to do on campus. There are many events at Darte Center that are enjoyed by Wilkes students, faculty and the public. Before we socialize and are entertained, we learn in Wilkes latest addition on South Franklin Street, the Classroom Office Building. Wilkes provides us with a well-rounded academic and social life. 4 �"Do not look back in anger or look forward in fear but around in awareness." 5 �The past, present and future came together on Thursday, August 31 during the 1995 Summer Commencement and Dedication of the John Wilkes Statue. On this sunny late-Summer day, 62 Wilkes students received their degrees and prepared to step into that future while a figure from the past, 18thcentury political reformer and University namesake John Wilkes, was honored with the unveiling of a bronze statue in his likeness. 6 ��As much as things change here at Wilkes University, so much still stays the same. You can remember the walks to class with one of your close friends that you never got to see enough of, like Sue George and Linda Chuong. Another thing that doesn't change on campus is the frequent visits to the John Farley Library. There are times when you would rather not be there, but there are also times when it is nice to sit and just read the newspaper in the solitude that only a library can provide. Wilkes also never forgets what makes it the university that it is today. The John Wilkes statue reminds us of the reason why we are Wilkes. On a more contem- porary level, our Alma Mater is known for its small classes and teachers that interact with students enthusiastically. 8 �. ' \ .' ~~ \ \~'.. , .

It started off on Thursday with Homecoming elections. The candidates for Queen were Holli Root, Jodi Depue, Kristen McNally, Katie Holliday, Karen Bednarczyk, Kim Howells, Mary Jo Cunningham, Kellie Klein, Amy Kuzmick and Kim Kaskel. All of these lovely candidates had an equal counterpart that could possibly have been her King for Homecoming Weekend . The candidates for King were Scott Mengle, Sean Gorman, JJ Grube, Tom Horvat, Brian Adams , David Habowski , Andrew Carter, Ali Quereshi, RobertStelnberger, and Mike LaMura. The crowning of the King Ali Quereshi and Queen Kim Kaskel happened at halftime during the Wilkes / Kings football game. The Wilkes Colonels defeated their top rival 29 to 15 . The Impressive game played at Ralston Field had led players such as Elijah Powell and Mike Conaghan. The team showed their sttength to their coach Joe DeMelfi, and proved that the Wilkes Football team should be taken seriously. There was much celebration throughout the weekend. The football game was not the only thing to celebrate. Capin Hall held an Open House, the Darte Center had its thirtieth anniversary, the Edward Darling, Jr. Theatre was dedicated and the Pep Rally were all events to celebrate. One of the biggest events was the Homecoming Dinner Dance at Gennetti's ballroom. The students of Wilkes looked their best, dancing the night away. The theme was "These Are the Days'' . .. to remember. Nothing could be more truthful when it comes to Homecoming Weekends at Wilkes.

Such a way of living can only be considered as a self-constraining, self-defeating, and eventually, a self-disappointing way of living. When individuals develop a pragmatic view of life determined by their special view or interest of religion, philosophy, morality, ethics, their rhetorical approach to any issue creates a causal relationship within the limits of their own interest. Whatever interests them less, or better stated, whatever isn't considered worth their while because of the closed-mindedness developed by their pragmatic determinism is simply rejected as false. This approach towards life prevents individual growth and creates only an illusion of "what is" because the only response these individuals can perceive is already predetermined by a selected and limited view. The philosophy behind the liberal arts education at Wilkes has made me realize that as individuals, we can not afford to view life as a subject of study which revolves around one law, but rather an object of study which revolves around an infinite body of man-made theories. And these theories, both past and present, when combined may imply a universal theory which may in fact shed some light upon past, present, and future reasoning with an eclectic view, but not however, an absolute law. History has shown human kind is right only for a moment because eventually he or she realizes that their views have been limited by the constant progression of deterministic reasoning. R.

Whatever orth their while determinism is ividual growth and A Few Words From the President To The Graduating Class of 1996: You leave a changing Wilkes University for a dramatically changing world. The Class of 1996 has had a very special role in the campus transformation. You were the beneficiaries of new and renovated buildings as well as of a changing campus ambiance typified by the new Fenner Quadrangle, the improvements to Ralston Field, and the new statue of John Wilkes. More alterations and additions are planned for the years immediately ahead, and I hope you will return to campus and take pride in the increasing beauty and enhanced facilities of your alma mater. I write this letter just after participating in the Senior Awards Ceremony in the Edward Darling Theatre where the quality of our class and the opportunities flowing from your Wilkes education were everywhere in evidence. You continue the traditions of academic excellence that go back to the earliest years of Wilkes. You also have consolidated the tradition of community service that was still in its infancy during your freshman year. You have availed yourselves of the cooperative education and internship opportunities more than any previous class. In these and other ways you have set new standards and established new traditions affecting both the academic program and the co-curricular program at Wilkes. In athletics, both in men's and women's sports, you have reached new heights that your successors will be motivated to climb--and exceed. In short, you have helped me make Wilkes a better place. We hope your pride in your alma mater will continue to grow and that the leadership of your class in joining with a growing Wilkes Alumni Association will help strengthen the alumni's involvement and support of the University. Come back often. Stay in touch. Be Wilkes proud and encourage others to become beneficiaries of a Wilkes education. Good luck to the Class of 1996! Christopher N. Breiseth ���CLUB DAY ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL OCCASION Every fall, between Stark Learning Center and Chase Lawn, Club Day is held to recruit new and old members into signing up for clubs and special activities that coordinated by students to keep Wilkes students entertained and be active in volunteer services activities. Some major clubs make their appearance on a sunny day were Amnicola, Manuscript, Circle K, and Volunteer Services and Campus Interfaith. Among these clubs there was a tarot cards reader (sponsored by the Programing Board) on location reading students their fortune and giving their horescope for the year. Club Day is not just another event. It is an event that students can come out and join clubs that they are interested in or just to school and students get to know other leaders who keeps us students on campus on our toes. and off campus.

This year's issues included: Mental Health, Senior Citizens, Literacy, Children and Youth, and the Environment. Students volunteered from aweek long agenda of activities ranging from raking leaves with children at Kirby Park to picking up litter off the streets of WilkesBarre or playing games with senior citizens to teaching computer literacy skills to the • public.

Wilkes University held three blood drives in the 1995-1996 academic year. The first one was in early October. The first blood drive had 123 participants. This is over the goal of 120 participants. Amy Mazur, the Director of Volunteer Services, was pleased that Blood Drive '95 was a huge success. The blood drives were held in the Marts Center's Rumours lounge. It took place between 10 am and 4 pm, so everyone had an opportunity to donate. Giving blood is not a big chore, but as incentive there were prizes. Some of the prizes were cordless phones, gift certificates, and long distance phone cards. The other two blood drives were in 1996, one in February and one in May. All of them had refreshments such as soda, pizza, hoagies, and snacks. Giving blood to save someone's life can be more rewarding than you think.

Volunteer Services and Campus Interfaith, located on the third floor of Conyngham, offers students many exciting opportunities to become involved and make a difference. The programs allow students to make more friends on campus and in the community. Amy Mazur, head of Volunteer Services, and Mary Hession, head of Campus Interfaith, have worked hard for the past three years raising enthusiasm on campus and have established a newsfetter, a homepage, and a volunteer hotline to show for their efforts . 30 One of their programs, called Talk it Out, meets once a week for dinner, conversation and planned service projects. Other volunteer programs involving the community include: SHARE (a program especially designed for elderly persons which gives participants $30.00 worth of food for $14.QO each month), R.E.A.C.H. (a program for disadvantaged youth and their families), Association for the Blind, the Blood Drive, American Red Cross, and AdoptA-Grandparent (a program which visits the elderly at the Little Flower Manor who do not receive visitors). Whenever there is someone in need, you can be sure these services will be there to help. And thanks to Amy and Mary, Wilkes can continue to provide service to the community through students' efforts and generosity. �Amy Mazur volunteered at a children's center in Jamaica while researching a possible break trip sight for future volunteers . fanor who do not isitors). henever there is in need, you can be ~ services will be there t\nd thanks to Amy and ilkes can continue to ervice to the ty through students' d generosity.

Wilkes was graced by a few big names in the 1995-1996 academic year. On October 31, Halloween night, Rusted Root played for 3000 fans in the Martz Center. The band, originally from Pittsburgh, had an altogether different sound than what is usually offered today in the music industry. The six member band played hits such as "XTC", "Rain" and "Lost in the Crowd." The fans, some in Halloween costumes and some in street clothes, listened, sang along and danced to the cutting edge music. Another upcoming artist who opened for Rusted Root was Joan Osborne. She performed probably her most memorable song of 1995, "One of Us." Everyone seemed very pleased by both performances. 38 �As big as Rusted Root and Joan Osborne are, Alanis Morissette tops both of them. Wilkes was lucky enough to have one of Billboard's Top Ten artists. She intensely performed songs such as "You Ought to Know" and "Wake Up" as the stage glowed with her presence and candles. She sang in front of 2500 fans on December 5, 1995. She only paused briefly during her hour and a half long performance. Still the audience wanted more. they encouraged her to come back on stage for two more encores. During one of these she did a cover of Radiohead's "Fake Plastic Trees." Wilkes was "Head Over Feet" for Alanis and was just as happy to have Rusted Root here. 39 �1 Blizzard of Bucks! $$$$$$$ $$$$$$$ Above Left: What is she trying to do?? Above Right: Aww!

Everyone there tried their best to get as much cash as they could, but how easy was it really? Making yourself a public spectacle of ridicule and grabbing at the dollars in a blizzard machine may not have been as easy as it looked.

This year, during the weekend of Feburary 1618, Wilkes let its hair down and let it all hang out. The weekend became a whilrwind of partying and merriment comparable in scale to the the wild Dionyscian passions of old. Friday night kicked off a large scale brain cell safari that carried well on into not only Saturday morning, but Saturday night and Sunday as well.

But some students decide to give of themselves instead. That's exactly what happened during the fall break trip to a halfway house in Maryland. At St. Martin's Home for Women and Children, seven students sorted and packed food in the center's food bank, hung clothing for the clothing bank and babysat for homeless women at the shelter. This year's spring break trip traveled to South Dakota's Rosebud Indian Reservation. Eight students repaired houses by painting and doing carpenter work while learning about the Sioux Indian culture through first hand 00 experience. As an end result, the students participating in the trips discovered the importance of teamwork in the midst of diversity. Dan Smith and Todd Vinovrski spent their spring break repairing houses in South Dakota. Andrea Sheasley and Tannele Yenkevick learned the meaning of teamwork by the end of the week. The spring break group posed for a picture with members of the Rosebud Indian Reservation. 47 �myof 30t theDarte Dis guy, he no se, 48 �I have no idea what I am doing.

Shelburne Television Center Dedication After two years of planning and an investment of nearly $750,000 representing the first phase of construction, the Thomas P. Shelburne Television Center marked its grand opening in April, 1996. This facility serves not only as a powerful statement of Wilkes University's commitment to the future of its students and the importance of the electronic media, but as a living memorial to one of northeast Pennsylvania's most beloved and innovative broadcast pioneers. Mr. Shelburne began shaping a vision for the electronic media in the Wyoming Valley in 1946 when he began as a partner at WILK radio and television. Eventually, a later merger created WNEP-TV, the local ABC affiliate and market leader of this area. Known for his commitment to award-winning regional productions and community service, Tom Shelburne represents the very best in broadcasting and serves as an appropriate model for all incoming and prospective broadcasting students. The 5,500 square foot facility contains: two production studios, two modern control rooms, three seperate editing suites, a master "head end", four field cameras, and an adjacent long distance learning and teleconferencing center. The facility is not only innovative and exciting but so is the atmosphere inside the Department of Communications. Currently, 160 students are majoring in four concentrations: radio/television production, organizational communications, journalisim, and rhetoric/public communication; all comprising the fourth largest area of study on campus today. Additionally, weekly productions such as "Wilkes Today", "WOW!" and "Colonels Corner'' involve a significant number of students, both major and non-major at the center. -Story courtesy of the Shelburne Television Center 56 �LEFT: President Breiseth addresses the audience, paying tribute to Shelburne.

Snodgrass, a Pulitzer Prize winner, not only presented his works in an oral presentation to the general public, but met before hand at an informal tea with students and instructors to discuss poetry and writing in general. A man whose works influenced such poets as Sylvia Plath, Anne Sexton, and Robert Lowell, Snodgrass stunned and amazed the crowd with readings from his past works and his controversial newer work, "The Fuehrer Bunker". �'I, Wilkes ts graced by of the na.imed poet, :lSS.

Some of us were enjoying the warmer temperatures of our southern homes, but most of us were not fortunate enough to escape the Blizzard of 1996. There were over forty counties under a snow emergency which means that unless it is an emergency, do not drive. Therefore, the malls, grocery stores and entertainment centers were closed unless their employees could walk to work. Not to mention it was cold outside--about 15 degrees below zero. The wind gusts were up to 45 miles per hour at times. These were no conditions to go out and take a sleigh ride. Scraping off cars, salting pavements and shoveling heavy snow off of roofs were the main activities of the days in early January. Just days after the area started to recover, and we got back to school, Mother Nature stepped in again. Does everyone remember what they were doing the night of the evacuation? Probably so. After the Blizzard of 1996 came heavy rains and a January thaw that drenched and inundated the Wilkes campus and the surrounding Wyoming Valley. This was a perfect combination to make the Susquehanna River rise. The river was almost at full capacity. This made people wonder if the 37 foot levee could hold the powerful water. Wilkes-Barre took precautions and evacuated the areas surrounding the river, including Wilkes students. The students that could go home, did, while the 150 remaining students were transported by bus to College Misericordia. These students got buses at the Martz Center and traveled to Dallas for a one night stay. Wilkes was busy removing computer lab equipment and valuable art work from the basements and first floors of COB and the Stark Learning Center. All of the commotion started at about midnight. Even at this time of night, Wilkes got the news out through Residence Life Assistants, Security, and area media. By three in the morning, the bused students were in the gym of Misericordia. Residence Life thought that the procedure went very smoothly. The students from Wilkes were pleased with the neighboring college and the hospitable treatment. College Misericordia provided the students with free snacks, a television, games and basketballs. There was relief in sight when the Susquehanna River near the campus was not going to flood and it started to recede. By Sunday, practically everything was back to normal, so there was no reason for students not to get back in gear by going to classes bright and early on Monday morning. 63 �MULTICULTURAL STUDENT COALITION aru 64 �TION UnitedatWdkes, andUJiththe P\tTURE PHDro 1300TH 65 �I The 2nd annual Block Party was held on the Greenway between COB and Stark this year. The turnout was unbelievable. There were more games this year compared to last year. Some of the Block Party attractions are Aerobatron, Biosphere Bowling, Dunk Tank, High Striker, Sumo Wrestling, Battle of the Bands, Beer Tent, Food Vendors and many more. The Off Campus Council (OCC) sponsored this event with the support of Student Government, Inter-Residence Hall Council, Programming Board, and the Alumni Association. 66 ��Guest Lectures In September and October of 1995, Wilkes University was happy to welcome guest speakers Katie Kostner and Marcia Wallace, respectively. Miss Kostner spoke about the dangers of date rape and how to avoid it by sharing her own heart-wrenching story of when she was raped at William and Mary in Virginia. Ms. Wallace, of the television show "Webster," shared her story of her battle with breast cancer to inspire and inform others about this type of cancer. 68 �Left Page: Miss Katie Kostner This Page: Ms. Marcia Wallace 69 �Food Fest 1996!! Once again this year, the students were ever so happy to try out all the new kinds of food that could be found at Mardi Gras in Pickering Cafeteria. What kind of food was there? Everything from heavenly cheesecake to gourmet coffee to chicken fingers and pasta. Everyone went there hungry and went away more than stuffed. �Photos clockwise from left: --"Hmmmm. Now what do I want??" --"Now make sure you tell all of your friends about how good this food is, okay?" --Trying a little bit of everything .... --"Are you sure I'm going to like this, ma'am?" --Even our great cafeteria workers were having a good time at Mardi Gras! \ .

The players were determined to make the NCAA, and they did for the first time in Wilkes history. This is an event that will leave a strong imprint on those who will return next year. The hockey team defended their title of MAC Freedom League once again for the third time in a row. Because of the players' commitment, they were able to accomplish their goals as a team.

For example, durtng the month of October, 1994, Wilkes apartment students and dorm students were targeted for robberies. After several break-ins, I helped establish a student crtme watch. Over 75 students attended an Informational lecture on how to make the crime watch successful. I also made It aware to the chief of Security that It was Important to Include apartment students In the escort service. He worked with myself and CJ Copley to Include apartment students In the program. Wlth our help, the admln1stratlon of Wilkes allocated funds to purchase the security car.· Karen Bednarczyk "Whether you are considered a leader or a follower, I believe that everyone has the ability to make an Impact on the lives of other people.
