In 2008, making connections is easier than ever. With cell phones and high-speed 
internet we can connect with people all over the world in an instant. We fill Facebook 
friend lists with hundreds of people who we might not have seen since third grade. 
However, even with connections coming at us from every direction, the most 
important connections are the ones we make face-to-face within our own community. 

It is impossible to stay isolated at a school like Butler. There are connections that are 
made for us - that crazy freshman year roommate, the classmates we wake up with at 
8 am, the boss for an on-campus job. Then there are connections that we choose - the 
professors we learn from, the roommates we pick, the clubs we join cr tJ-e froirrnities 



and sororities we pledge. Some connections are not as strong 



;;n 



Iding the 



door for you in Jordan or the stranger cheering next to you in the Dawa Pound 

Interactions come in many forms, some memorahr "ting, out 

ultimately these connections shape our college expert

"I wanted to leave Butler knowing that both inside and outside 
of the classroom I had taken the plunge of stepping outside my 
comfort zone. That day, over 47 Butler students barreled out of 
the threshold at 10,000 feet up and learned that taking the 
jump-whether out of the plane, or into Butler University--will 
leave you excited and forever changed."

"Next year I will be traveling abroad to 
University of Auckland In Auckland, 
New Zealand forthe fall semester! I 
then hope to receive an internship and 
take classes to complete my senior year. 

My most valuable experience at Butler 
University has been my involvement in 
Scholars for the Advancement In 
Business Leadership. This organization 
coordinates a scholarship weekend for 
prospeaive business college students, 
for which I was the student coordinator. 
The people were driven, yet fun, and I 
learned a lot about my leadership style 
and the dynamics of working with 
people." 



"Next year I am working at JP Morgan as an investment analyst In its Private Client 
Services group in Indy. 

My most valuable college experience was taking the portfolio management class at 
Butler. Approximately 1 6 other students and I managed a portfolio of $ 1 million of 
Butler's Endowment. The class helped connea what I learned in the classroom with 
what I would be doing once I graduated." 



Kevin Hitchen senior, finance 




"Next year, I will be applying for dental school and working 
at the Indiana School of Dentistry doing research on fluoride 
content in teeth. Here at Butler, I will continue to lead as 
the president of the Butler Pre-Dental Society and the 
president of the National Society of Collegiate Scholars. 

The most rewarding opportunity 
that I have had at Butler was 
being on the executive board for 
Alternative Spring Break. It was 
an excellent chance to work with 
Butler students and to see how 
much that people can grow from 
simply a week of service with 
reflection time afterwards." 




junior, chemistry 




"Next year I am hoping to attend Indiana University School of Medicine. If 
that does not work out, then I will be getting a job with one of the research 
departments at medical school. 

Being a part of the Greek system at Butler truly enriched my college 
experience. Through the Greek system, especially Delta Gamma, I have 
gained a better sense of myself and have developed incredible relationships. 
I came to understand my strengths as a leader, as well as the most important 
qualities of leadership through my experiences at Delta Gamma. Being 
President was not an easy task, but the personal development it allowed is 
irreplaceable." 




"Next year I hope to work at an 
advertising agency in Chicago 
or New York City and volunteer 
and contribute to the 
community no matter where I 
am! 



The last semester of my senior year I studied abroad with the Global 
Adventures in the Liberal Arts program and traveled to Paris, 
London, Belfast, and the English Lake District. It was incredible, 
have been involved in many things at Butler and loved every second 
of my time here, but I learned so much about myself during my 
study abroad experience. It was the perfea end to my 
undergraduate studies." 



"I will run the Port Angeles, WA Fi 
marathon on June 8, 2008 and I am 
joining the finance program 
management sector of Boeing 
Commercial Airplanes. I also plan 
to prepare for law school in fall 
2009. 

My most valuable Butler experience 
was playing varsity basketball for 
Lingnan University during my study 
abroad in Hong Kong."

"Next year, I will be attending lU School of Medicine. 

My most valuable experiences were traveling to 
Quito, Ecuador my freshman summer and Xela, 
Guatemala last May, each for a week. I went to those 
places with the Timmy Foundation at Butler on medical service trips. These 
were some of the best moments of my life. For me, both of these trips 
confirmed that I was supposed to fullfill my life goal of becoming a doctor. 
One of my favorite memories from these trips was seeing a birth for the 
very first time and being able to help out. I will never forget these 
experiences ever and I can't wait until I get to go back." 



Brian Clarke senior, accounting 



"I have accepted a public accounting position 
with Crowe Chizek to work in their Oak Brook, 
Illinois office outside of Chicago after graduation. 

My most valuable experience was the Johnson & 
Johnson Co-op offered through the College of 
Business. During the Fall Semester of my Junior 
Year I lived in New Brunswick, New Jersey and 
worked at Johnson & Johnson's Corporate 
Headquarters. This experience allowed me to 
apply the skills learned in my classes and put 
them into practical use working for a world 
renowned healthcare company such as J&J. The 
experience allowed me to benefit from both a 
business and personal perspective." 





"Next year, my plans 
include spending the 
summer working in 
Uganda at an 
orphanage and 
school. Long-term 
plans (i.e., a job) are 
still unknown, but I 
would like to work in 
international peace 
relations. 

Rebecca 
Scherpelz 

Learning to appreciate that there are no strictly black and 
white solutions, I value those moments and experiences 
when people dared to question, challenge, learn, and grow. 
Whether this was through working as an RA, hearing the 
right jazz chords, traveling to Uganda, or talking with 
friends and professors, my four years at Butler have led me 
to value the beautiful differences in people that are 
ultimately unifying." 



"Next Year, I will attend Stanford 
University School of Medicine. 

Serving impoverished communities of 
Latin America and Africa during 
medical service brigades has created 
memories and a passion that will 
never fade. I feel very blessed by the 
opportunities to lead and travel at 
Butler. " 



junior Journalism 




"I will be Senior 
Class Vice President 
as well as Features 
Editor for Dawgnet. 
I also will be 
concentrating on 
writing my thesis 
and preparing for 
graduate school. 



My time at Butler has taught me the 
importance of small kindnesses in day to day 
life. This stems from the emphasis on 
volunteering and community involvement on 
campus, which has taught me more lessons 
than I can count. After studying abroad, I've 
learned that simply reaching out to another 
human being can make all the difference. 
Butler has offered me both a solid scholarly 
education and character foundation." 



Susanna Foxworthy W^ 



"Next year I will be continuing pharmacy school for 
my P2 year. I will serve as treasurer for Order of 
Omega and corresponding secretary for Delta Tau 
Delta. 

My most valuable experience at Butler have to be the 
friendships and relationships made through both 
work, student organizations, and social life. These 
individuals have pushed me to be the best person I 
can be while being there when I needed a helping 
hand. I could not imagine what Butler would be like 
without those that have been with me along the 
way."

"This summer I will be interning with the US Department 
of Commerce. Next fall I will be a culture and language 
assistant in Spain for a year through the Spanish 
Department of Education. As of right now, I plan on 
pursuing a career with the government. Preferably in the 
foreign service. It is still up in the air. 

My most valuable time at Butler has been my time spent 
studying abroad. I studied a semester in Milan, Italy, a 
semester in Madrid, Spain, two summer semesters in 
Lisbon, Portugal, and a summer semester in Brussels, 
Belgium. I probably learned the most about myself 
during my time spent abroad and learned a great deal 
about different people's culture and languages." 



Matthew Fuss 




"My plans for next year are to teach abroad through the 
Peace Corps or another volunteer organization. 

My most valuable Butler experience was doing an 
independent study with one of my professors, Dr. Ena 
Shelley, about the Reggio Emilia Approach to education 
and then traveling to Reggio Emilia, Italy with Dr. Arthur 
Hochman, Dr. Judith Lysaker, and three other Butler 
students. These experiences allowed me to become 
immersed in and appreciate another culture's values, 
lifestyles, and education practices. Studying and 
traveling with professors and Butler students also helped 
me reflea on what I believe about education and my 
own lifestyle and values."

Matthew Tapp& politics 

was immediately interested in my internship with the Indiana Senate. 
My internship required fulfilling any roles requested by Senator Kenley. 
However, the most significant part of my work was sitting through 
committees and public testimonies, while working side-by-side with 
the man responsible for most of the legislation that is a prevalent issue 
to Indiana citizens' property tax. 

It has been very interesting to be able to have an inside look on the 
issues. It is very fascinating to hear all of these discussions and observe 
the process towards an equitable, uniform, and permanent property 
tax reform system. 

This internship has given me a glimpse of what it's like to serve in 
state government, and has inspired me to move ahead with my career 
ambition to study law. 





Casey Blodgett { 
event planning 



completed my event planning internship with Internship and Career Services here 
at Butler. My responsibilities included: planning two department secretaries 
luncheons, helping plan A Night at the Columbia Club event (a networking 
opportunity for young alumni and students), planning the events of this summer's 
Brain Gain program, coordinating six focus groups for Internship and Career 
Services involving the Internship and Career Fairs currently offered, setting up, 
sending out and tracking surveys for the Internship and Career Prep Program and 
helping to plan this year's Internship and Career Services Field Day on April 22. 

What I have enjoyed most about this internship is my freedom to be as creative 
as I want. I am able to work independently, but know that I have support around 
me in case I have questions, need a second opinion, or am facing an obstacle I am 
uncertain of how to handle. I am very excited that this internship has allowed me 
to discover an industry in which I thoroughly enjoy the work. My experiences here 
have also helped me better define my potential career path.

I have real world experience 

Alicia Gillespie & non-profits 

did an internship at both Make-A-Wish Foundation and Indy Hub Inc. At Make-A-Wish I took referrals from 
medical professionals and met with families to help them with paperwork. I also assisted the development 
team in event planning and creating original ideas for calendars, folders, and new specialized gifts for the 
children. At Indy Hub Inc. I was the Events and Media Manager. I helped promote and plan several events 
and managed the website. I also helped increase awareness of Indy Hub and the city of Indianapolis. 

I am really interested in non-profit work personally and possibly professionally. Both internships allowed 
me to have hands-on involvement in things that interest me and not just one department. I really liked 
that I was given freedom to try new ideas and take the internship to the next level. 

I think my most memorable moment at Make-A-Wish was when I helped put a Thomas the Train playhouse 
together for a little boy. I took two of my friends and we drove out to their farm house in northern Indiana. 
The playhouse was amazing and took several people and many hours to assemble. We spent the whole day 
with the family of seven and it will be a day I will always remember. At Indy Hub I was able to go to the 
Crystal Heart Awards. The best part was at the after party when I met Haley Joel Osment!

Laura Hazelton& publishing 



y internship consisted of researching and fact-checking articles for the National Geographic 
magazine. I got to tall< to the writers and photographers and talk to people all over the world. It 
was so surreal! 

I was most excited about the fact that I had read the magazines for years, and that I was able to 
actually work for a publication that I had so much respect for and enjoyed so much. Also, working 
in headquarters in Washington DC was amazing. It was right in the middle of DC and within walking 
distance of the White House. It was one of the best experiences I've had during my time at Butler! 

My most memorable moment was when I was able to sit in on my first photo screening meeting, 
when all of the head editors and Chris Johns, the editor in chief, get together with the writer(s) and 
photographer(s) of an article and meet in this room that's equipped with a screen and low lights to 
go through all of the photographs and discuss how the story is going to be laid out. It was so 
intimidating to be in those meetings with so many incredibly talented people, but it was amazing 
at the same time to be able to take part in it. 




Nate Harter& government 



his summer I had the fantastic opportunity to intern with the Indiana Lt. Governor's Office. Specifically, I worked for the Office of Community and 
Rural Affairs (OCRA), which funds, establishes and develops programs that aid rural communities throughout Indiana. These programs help 
communities create their own visions of themselves, and then gives them the resources to make it happen. My jobs included filing, answering 
phones, creating spreadsheets, and traveling to these small communities alongside other OCRA employees. We tried to gather an idea of their 
needs, and then we would help them through the grant application process so that they could get the money for those things they needed. 

Just as exciting were the conferences. Indiana is bursting at the seams with initiative regarding rural and community development. The leading 
movement is the Rural Indiana Strategy for Excellence by 2020, or RISE 2020, which is a statewide organization that helps communities network 
and plan to create wonderful places to live, work, and play. I also helped run a conference dealing with bringing broadband internet to rural 
homes and communities. 

So far I have not mentioned my favorite part of the summer. I thoroughly enjoyed working in downtown Indianapolis, which teems with life 
and energy. Having been raised in one of those small, rural communities, I thoroughly enjoyed the bustle of the streets and the grandeur of the 
monuments and architecture. It was a rewarding summer, and I won't forget that Butler helped make it happen!

Jessica Largent & sports entertainment 

y internship was with the Community Relations Department of Pacers Sports and Entertainment. I spent my time responding to both player and Larry 
Bird fan mail, facilitating autograph sessions, coordinating the High Five Book Exchange (a pre-game activity where 12 children ages 6-14 make a 
tunnel for the players to run through when they enter the court for warm up. The kids then sit on the bench for the entire warm-up and after the 
National Anthem each player shakes hands with one of the kids and gives him or her an autographed book). I also helped facilitate the weekly Reading 
Timeouts. This was when the community relations department, usually along with a mascot and maybe a player or pacemate, goes to an elementary 
school and reads to a group of students for an hour. 

The thing that excites me most about this field is that every employee rallies together for a common cause of making the team and the organization 
a beneficial and enjoyable experience for fans. 

I was around the team a lot during my internship, so they provided many memorable experiences. But my most memorable experience will be the 
reaction of one particular High Five participant after the completion of the pregame event. This was the child's first NBA game, and I had picked him 
at random to fill an opening in the group. He gave me the cutest and most sincere thank you that I have ever received, and I knew right then the 
meaning of a community relations department.

Sophomore Brian Zahn and freshman Kelsey Adams worked together to plant this tree on College Avenue. 
BUSF aims to "connect with students of the past, present and future." One way they achieve this is service

.argest student organization on campus sets new record in attendance 

utier University is home to over 115 student organizations, each varying in membership 
size. The Daw/g Pound is the largest organization on campus, boasting record numbers in 
attendance this school year with over 1300 members. 

The staggering 1300 members participate in one of the student body's main roles: the 
vital support group for Butler athletics. A typical trademark for members are painted faces 
accompanied by the 2007-2008 tie-dyed shirt. 

Beginning in 2001, the purpose of the Daw/g Pound was to boost attendance and overall 
involement at Butler basketball games, a goal that was obviously achieved. Each year 
students who choose to participate in the organization pay a fee that helps pay for 
organization events. All Butler students receive free admission to all boys' and girls' 
basketball games, but Dawg Pound members earn exclusive rights to court-side seating.

According to a survey of BUMB members, the most 
popular band tradition is the fireman song that 
members sing in the stands at football games, 
supplemented by the colorguard's fireman hats. 
Freshman Adam Weaver says, "It's so innocent 
until the last word." 



Freshman Jimmy Gilkey is one 

of three tenor drummers who 
wore crazy hats while playing in 
the stands. This tradition was 
passed down to the new 
drumline members. 



After playing at Family Weekend events, trumpet players 
freshman Casey Brege, senior Laurel Lucore and 

sophomore Nick Leon march back to the Butler Bowl. It is 
tradition for seniors like Lucore to switch their capes to 
display the Butler "B" at their last game. This tradition dates 
back to the early 1990s when the uniforms were new. 



For the last 
game of the 
year, drill 
formations such 
as this line-up 
were designed 
by senior 
members of the 
band. Seniors 
also chose the 
musical 

selections which 
included "The

"[The club] is dedicated to the perfection 
of the character of the student." 

Jesse haines, captain 

ost martial arts institutions in the United 
States are thought of as a sport, an activity 
that draws in trophies and awards. Butler 
University's Shotokan Karate Club does not 
particularly follow the stereotypical 
American l<a rate club. 

According to Haines, the aim of Butler's 
Shotokan Karate Club is to "be very 
genuine and very hard on ourselves during 
practice, always striving to do our best and 
make strong, effective blocks and attacks, 
both mentally and physically." The club 
tries to produce individuals who are 
humble, genuine, strong, and kind. 

Although rooted and dedicated to the 
traditional practice of karate, Butler's 
Shotokan Karate Club has earned several 
awards. One recognition includes achieving 
the Shotokan Karate of America's Central 
Dojo of the Year award on several 
occasions, most recently in 2007.

At the end of l^l^ vvjar's season, three players were named to the 
2007 All-Pioneer Football League Team: senior brothers Chris and 
Mike Marzotto, along with junior Jordan Quiroz. 

When asked about being a team leader, Jordan says, "Becoming a 
team leader demands discipline, integrity, and honesty. This includes 
a good work ethic, always being on time, and admitting when you 
are wrong. People look up to me because I don't just talk about what 
I am going to do, I just do it. The statistics speak for themselves. So I 
believe that my actions speak louder than words." 

This season was the last time team leaders and brothers Chris and 
Mike Marzotto will play football together. Mike says, "Playing with 
Chris made my experience much more enjoyable. Having the total 
trust of Chris allowed both of us to play harder and let it all out on the 
field." Chris adds, "Playing with Mike was one of the best experiences 
of my life because we had grown up together and we each knew how 
much time, work, and sacrifice we had put into our entire career. To 
play with him was a great honor and something I will cherish for the 
rest of my life."

At the end of my freshman year last spring, I was certainly not aspiring to be Editor-in-Chief of the yearbook. In fact, I wasnt even sure if I'd have time to fit 
yearbook into my schedule. However, when all the former editors graduated, I was left as the sole survivor. I was faced with a decision - 1 could take on the 
yearbook and do the best I could, or I could say no and there would be no book. I love being in college and I especially love Butler, and I think that we have so many 
great stories to tell about our experiences here. Not only do we want to cherish these stories in the years after graduation, but we need to pass on our stories to 
the next generation of Butler students. So, I said yes and the journey began. 

I only have one year of yearbook experience from high school, but luckily my Naperville North High School yearbook partner-in-crime, Sean Brady, also attends 
Butler and agreed to help me out. We began the year as a staff of two people. Our recruitment slogan was "Join the Yearbook Revolution!" because we figured if 
we were going to do this, we might as well make it better. We started off with an enthusiastic staff of about twenty people and then we realized that changing 
this yearbook really would be a total revolution. With new online software, a new staff structure, a new advisor and a new relationship with our publisher, we had 
so much to learn. Some people weren't able to stick it out through the trials and changes and so we lost a lot of our staff members. However, I think we've finally 
figured it out and I am so proud of the core group of staff that made it to the very end. All but three of them were freshmen, and yet our little group of 
underclassmen has managed to publish an entire book. 

We hope that you enjoy some of the changes we have made. To my knowledge, this is the first year that Butler has had an all-color yearbook. We also 
attempted to include organizations and stories that haven't been covered in the past, so that we could better reflect what life at Butler is really like. Lastly, we are 
trying a more professional look and journalistic style that we hope will make the book more fun to look at and read. We didn't accomplish everything we hoped, 
but this publication has come a long way. I am so excited to see what next year's staff can do with it. 




itor s note 



To the staff: you guys are amazing! You have accomplished so much in your first year of college and your future potential is so great. Thank you for all of your 
hard work and for sticking with us even through the chaotic times, whether or not I bribed you with lollipops. Special thanks go out to Jon Riley and Jon Irons, our 
amazing photographers, who were always so willing to help me out. And thanks to the Collegian for helping us out with photo coverage when we couldn't get 
everything. We admire your photography and are so glad to include some of it here. Thank you also to Julie Pakenham, our advisor, and Mike Conlon from Jostens 
for supporting me throughout the year. 

My friends, although indirectly involved, have also had a huge impact on this book. Thanks for being so helpful and not hating me when I continually harassed 
you for pictures, quotes or surveys. Without you all,! think about half of this book would be empty. 1 am especially grateful to Forrest Heyman and Kalin Clifford, 
who actually offered to help me with the book when they saw how stressed I was! Despite not being on staff, both of them put in hours of work. Thanks for being 
amazing friends. Lastly, but most lovingly, I must thank my roommates Katie Fodness and Jill Devine. Not only are they the two most amazing women I know, 
but they put up with my mess, kept me company on those late nights of working (okay, every night), and always made me laugh or offered to drive to Taco Bell 
when yearbook/life got too stressful. 

In the end, this book is not perfect - but what in college ever is? All we can hope for is that we had fun doing it, met some cool people and maybe learned a little 
along the way. I have certainly enjoyed learning more about all of you who are featured in this book. I am glad that the yearbook can be one small tribute to all 
the amazing things Butler students accomplish and all the fun times we share. Please help out the 2009 staff by sharing your stories and photos with them so that 
we can do an even better job next year. As you read this book for the first time, I am studying abroad in Spain, but I can't wait to retum home and see how 
amazing the next Drift will be. 

Viva la revolucion!

Whether you're finishing your first year at Butler or wrapping up your college 
career, look back on your time here and think about the connections you've made. 
Think about your very first day at Butler and how many people have come into your 
life since then. Maybe you met an amazing professor who helped you figure out your 
dream career. Maybe you met your best friend, your first love, or the group of friends 
you'll still call in fifty years. 

Even if the connections end here, hold on to this book and remember all the 
wonderful connections you had. Remember the smiles and the inside jokes, the 
meetings and the road trips, the late nights studying and the amazing weekends. 
Most importantly, don't forget - it's never too late to reconnect.
