Cheer and

Dance Squad

In addition to cheering at games the BSU cheerleaders serve the university as PR persons by attending a wide array of functions. They get campus organizations involved in their ath­letic program. The Cheerleaders begin practice weeks before school and still practice about 2-3 hours a day perfecting their cheers. Aside from that, the Squad functions dynamically as a unit and all agree that their highest satisfaction is "hearing the crowd roar after a touchdown."

Bois

Any book has a certain meaning to someone. A yearbook and especially the 1977-78 "Les Bois" has many special meanings to me. It consists of certain events at BSU. It includes my classmates, my friends, and fellow workers. The book reviews the many events I watched and participated in; it also relates some of the accomplishments of students whom I watch throughout the year.

Most importantly, the book is a part of me. It represents many hours of hard work for both myself and staff. New ideas were constantly being thought about, realized, and then put to use. Consequently, I hope you may find some of the reasons the "Les Bois" is important to me. Thus, assuring you it will become a part of your life now and your memories in the future.
