Recent Graduate Takes A Glance At Memories

In July, 1967, an 18-year - old high school graduate walked acr os .this campus with his father, who, being an alumni, was somewha f;unillar with the surroundings. Father and soo were escorted to thf Pres ident's Office where the son was introduced to the President head of the science department, Mr. BEatty, director of s tudent aid and some other people whom he does not now remember • . After a fe'< words of welcome and cordiality, the son was taken into the President's Conference Room and shown a replica of what the college would be in years to come. The head of the science department, Dr. Sturch, then showed father and son arotmd the campus, which at that time looked a lot different than it does now. Let me, being the son. count tbe ways.

The present science building, at that time, was a sbamble ~ old brick and mortar. It was renovated and added to, to tbe tune of ap­proximately $888,000. The library was closed for repairs and addltioos when I first came to the campus. There cbanges were made at a cost of $697,000 (since my freshman beanie, awroximately 20,500 new volumes have been added to the library.)

Morrison Hall was not always called Morrisoo Hall and was not always as attractive as it is now. The renovatioo of the upper two floors of Southeastern's oldest building cost around $288,500. The approximate cost of one of the newest physical additions to out campus is $162,000. The soon-to-be completed heating plant will beat the entire college etcept for the twin towers. Spealcing of the towers, 428 people are housed in the eight story structure, which bas an appriximate $1,970,000 price tag. The above-mentioned additions and r enovations were made at the cost of approximately $4,006,000, which

·ts an ·average of a little over $1,000,()()(} a year (I'm a math major These are not by any means the only changes.

When I was a freshman, the c~ee shop was full of old booths, a tile fioor, ancf had about as much atmosphere a s a hamburger sta.hd.

(Cont'd. from Page l) every fall since I've been here. l~s very interesting to look at the percentage increase over the past four"years. The percentage in­crease over the · previous 'year for fall ' 67, '68, ' 69 and '70 are 1%, 3. <1Yo, 7.9% and 26.2%, and 26.2% r~ctively. For the last two years sse has had the .highest percentage increase of all the state colleges; as a matter of facl several .-of tl\e other s~te collee:es had a decrea~e in enrollment for fall 69 ahd 70. During this period

our faculty has increased from 90 to 120 . Our teacher-student ratio bas been the best of all the state colleges in all of the four years I~ve been here. The ratio is now about one to twenty-eight, some of those 120 faculo/ member~ are on the Student Faculty Forum, which was newly orgamzed since I've been here.

Perhaps one of the most important changes that has taken place in this school recently was the complete res tructuring of the entire committee system on campus. The committees now meet and operate with well defined tasks. I have, served on two committees in my four years here; the most r ecent being the Curriculum Committee. Our efforts there, I believe have been beneficial to Southeastern; for out of that committee has recently come a completely new general education system. (It is interesting to note that students are official voting members of over half of the standing committees on campus.

Today as I was finishing this article I learned that in a week construction is to start on a $40,000 sidewalk cafe adjoining the College Blvd. side of Hallie McKinney. Perhaps, hpwever , a change ~at is. more important than the constant physical changes and the mtangtble ones IT~entioned ~ above is the greatly improved student-teacner ra.pport.

What is the point in all this; to hand out roses or what? I have several reasons for writing this article, some of which are very self­ish, but there is one main r eason I'd like to share with you. One d the few tllings I know about people ( or a group of people) is that every one of them has a greater potential than they put to use. I feel very sure that one of the mo~t important factors in realizing that potential is confidence. T.Jle best kind of confidence I know about is the kind that says, " I know I can do it because I just got

through doing it." This article is full of facts that I hope will build up your confidence in Southeastern, especially if you are a part of SSC. Why? Well that's a silly question; everyone knows wbv. We don't gaj,n confidence so we can sit back on our laurels and pat our backs. Would you think roe naive and idealistic if I told you that I tbtnk ~outheastern could . become the best college 1n me country. Don•t ~ret me wroM: I don't think we are there yet. Southeastern has a lot of problems and fallacies but somehow I can't see them too clear rtght no~. My two cents ts Simply this; 1 think we can do it. Believe ~d you can achieve.

Significant Increase?

• Southeastern has maintained its

r ecord in attracting state junior college transfers in increasing its booming enrollment for the past two years.

An early summer check with r egistry offices at Murray State College, Tishomingo, and Eastern State at Wilburton confirmed the information that Southeastern State had obtained the bulk oftheir graduating classes.

The survey revealed that 172 graduates out of a class of 305 from Eastern State and 60

. graduates of 122 at Murray State have enrolled at sse.

Location, nearness to home, and the academic programs offered at Southeastern were the overwhelming reasons junior col­lege ··transfers selected South­eastern, according to surveys re­ceived by the junior college reg­istrars.

The two junior colleges wete chosen as a sampling of state junior colleges to give sse of­ficials an indication of the amount of transfer students that could be expected. Other state junior colleges are supply­ing a like percentage of grad­uates to swell the Southeastern enrollment again to record heights.

Last year Southeastern led all other state colleges with a 26% increase. That increase was at­tributed primarily to entering freshmen and junior college trans­fers.

INDIAN COOKING WAS enjoyed by several who participated In the recent workshop held for Indians on campus. Albe rt Lieb of the fort Sill Indian School is shown above preparing a tasty dish.

Enrollment figures for the summer or fall semesters are not available at present because en­rollment is still open, but sse of­ficials are hopeful that the figures continue to show an upward tr enri.

They also planned and prepared the noon meal Wednesday for all r esident Southeastern students.

With Southeastern in Choctaw territory, the menu included pas­hofa (with backbone) and Mnaha (shuck-bread) but there were other tribal favorites on the menu.

A group of Kiowas and Com­anches had as their project a "Southwest Oklahoma Indian salad" and Albert Lieb, Fort Sill Indian School, contributed the recipe for wojapi, dessert of his Sioux Tribe.

"It's all been great, " saidJulia Kent, Chilocco, in describing the workshop. And that seems to be the prevalent reaction of all the 17 participants.

U the rising cost of those wild, wide neckties is tying you down, Norma Mansur bas a solution that'll keep you 1n stitches - and ties.

He r three word answer to the problem: make them yourselr.

The attractive housewife bas turned out some ZO ties, with the total cost coming to less that $20. Over the counter, similar ties would have cost $140, perhaps more.

"I've never really stopped to . - figure out bow much it costs,"

said Mrs. Mansur. "But I'm sure it would be less than $1

. • a tie." The finished product winds up

on hubby Paul Mansur, music pro­fessor at Southeastern State Col­lege. And they draw comment wherever he goes.

MATCHES DRAPES A real conversation starter is

the purple tie with huge circles · of varying shades of brown. It •

exactly matches the drapes in Dr. Mansur's office in the fine arts building. Matter of fact, it was

· part of the drapes. "This way I just sort of blend

into the background," smiled Man­sur, whose colorful attire really doesn't blend into anything. Like when be wears his white vinyl tie, matching his white shoes and contrasting with rich blue shirt and slacks.

He says the vinyl masterpiece is one of his favorites, but also notes that it's diffi cult to know. Because vinyl sticks to itself, Mrs. Mapsur said it'~ also ®e of the most irksome materials to work with.

She sticks with the popular, five-inch-wide styles, exceptwhen maldng ties for older men, who

. usnaUy prefer the four-lncbers.

-

Irooically, lt was the same "ol­der men" who were wearing the. five-inchers years back when dou­ble-breasted suits were the thing.

SOMETHING DIFFERENT .

"I find myself coostantly oo the watch for something different--a type 01 material or pattern design that l haven't seen used before," said Mrs. Mansur.

The wide array of ties in the Mansur closets (soo Max wears them, too, including a giant, black bow tie oo occasion) offers strik­ing testimony that she's suc­ceeded. Materials used include .tie acetate, polyester crepe, cotton suiting, tied-died prints, drapery fabrics and that bard-'to-manage vinyl. Styles and patterns range rrom wild to mild •

Most any material will do the job, as long as it bas enough body. Tbe real trick of the trade is keeping the cutting straight.

"The mOst difficult thing to do is to get the tie true," said the

• self-styled seamstress, who first made her d~wn pattern by pul­ling apart one of Max's old ties, bUt later turned to c~merctl\1 patterns when they became avaflable.

POPULAR FELLOW "If the tie-to-be ts cut truly,

the rest goes real quickly," said Mrs. Mansur. Arrows oo the pat­tern must be precisely Uned up witll ~the "grain" of the fabric.

'S· Fine Quality

...

Just three threads olf and the tie can become a misshapen mess.

The pattern instructions call for sewing the fashion articles completely by hand, although Mrs. Mansur Ss/.ys that a machine will do the job faster and about as well. Loog, · loose stitching is a must, however, letting the tie "give".

Interlining gives the tie body, and interfacing completes the job. Only bard work involved in the ·mclusion of the interfacing.

"If I was to sit down now to cut out a tie," said Mrs. Man­sur, "I would probably make a couple in about an hour and a half .. or less. I've never really timed myself."

The cost per tie varies ac­cording to the price of the mat­erial. Three-fourths of a yard provides material for two ties and may cost as little as 37 cents, or as much as $1. 75. The vinyl, for instance, costs $1.98 a yard. A yard of interlining will be good for five or more ties.

Savings, however, have become a sidelight of tbe hobby. The real enjoyment comes from the compliments and questions the Mansurs receive cWlv.

And the hobby is spreading, with a host of Mrs. Mansur's . friends now beginning to get into the act. And in these times when a penny saved is truly a peiUly earned, a tie made amounts to about $6 that wasn't paid.

New· Profs Told Dr. Leon Hibbs, president, has

announced the appointment of four faculty members beginning their work with the summer term.

Two Southeastern graduates are included among the four.

Bob G. Pratt, returns to his alma mater as director ol choral activities and associate professor of music. He has been in the same position at Eastern State College for the past 17 years. He is a native of Durant and holds a mas­ter's degree from Colwnbia Un­iversity.

Robert Allen Branton, also an SSC grad., replaces Jim O'Steen in the computer science lab. O'Steen will be doing graduate work on a year's leave.

Frank H. Davis has been ap­pointed bead basketball coach and assistant professor of physical ed­ucation.

Val C. Reneau has been em­ployed as physical education in-

• structor. He has been a coach and teacher in the Oklahoma City and Tulsa school systems.
