GREETINGS

To the Class of 1975

I am happy to express my sincere appreciation for having shared
a common purpose with you these past four years. We came as freshmen
together; I as a new president, you as a new student. Through our mutual
participation in Shaw's Universe we have all learned a great deal.

I feel so close to you that I plan to stay in touch and observe vour
progress toward the fulfillment of your life's goals.

Best wishes to you!

Sincerely yours.

'Bears' Put on Gridiron
"Surprise"

The Mighty Bears of Shaw University put on a big
surprise for all football fans. Losing the first three
contests of the season, the student body put the team
down for a repeat of the previous 1 and 9 season.
Then the table changed; the Bears put together three
straight wins over Federal City, Elizabeth City, and
Fort Bragg. With four games left, the Bears were
looking for a . 500 season, and they knew it was going
to be hard. Losing to J. C. Smith and nationally
ranked Norfolk St. and Livingstone College, the
Bears put on a great fight. The only team to score
more than 10 points on Norfolk St. , the Bears knew
they were having a good year. At the game of the
year, played before over 12,000 fans, the Bears
came out victorious 16-12 over Winston Salem St.
University, and what a victory it was because it was
Homecoming!

With only four seniors graduating from this
years team, the Bears are looking forward to
bringing the CIAA trophy home to Shaw University
next year.

SHAW PERSONALITIES

THE 1975 BEAR STAFF IS PROUD

TO INTRODUCE THE SHAW PERSONALITIES

People who project the true spirit of the Bear. They of all people have that
very present spirit.

The Shaw Personalities are those dedicated persons who have spent hours,
if not years, serving each of us here at Shaw. They are the type of people
who have helped Shaw University become the dynamic University it is
today, by each doing his own individual thing.

The S.P.'s are those chosen few who have stood up and made Shaw aware
of their presence.

The Bear Staff applauds them and in our hearts, we sing a special song for
them. They have the right to forever remain proud because each one is a

Shaw Personality.

The Staff Would Like to Thank All Who Helped Us
During the Making of the 1975 Bear.

Shaw University -A UNITED NEGRO COLLEGE FUND MEMBER

224

This year, the Shaw University Yearbook was a success. It
demonstrated the effectiveness of students, from different areas of
study, working together.

I would like to thank the entire staff for their efforts in niaking
the "75 BEAR" a reality. It took great dedication and, at tinies,
sheer sacrifice.

"Thanks" also to our advisors, Mrs. Doris Anderson and Miss
Geraldine Turner, for their cooperation and patience in working with
us.

In closing, it is appropriate to say it has been very inspirational
to know that Black students have worked and still can work together to
make a dream a success. RIGHT ON, SHAW U! ! ! !
