A  time  to  begin^  time  to  end 
A  time  to  be  /fffiFerent,  a  time  to  co 
A  time  townee,  a  time  to  mourn 
A  time  toHead,  a  time  to  follow 
A  timdto  spend,  a  time  to  save 

To  (j^^thing  there  ie  a  season 
And  a  time  to  every  purpose  under  heaw 
Aitlme  to  study,  a  time  to  party 
|time  to  unite,  a  time  to  stand  alone 
time  to  cram,  a  time  to  be  tested 

[everything  there  is  a  season 
[id  a  time  to  every  purpose  under  h 
A?time  to  love,  a  time  to  leave 
A  time  to  embrace,  a  time  to  challenge 
A  tM^to  win,  a  time  to  lose 
A  tiiBto  speak,  a  time  to  listen 
A  timwo  read,  a  time  to  write 


To  everytH^  there  is  a  season 
And  as  thes^i^ne  turn  at  FSU 
We  live,  look  baatand  remember . 


Fayetteville  State  University  is  tlie  liome  of  the  mighty  bucl<ing 
Broncos.  There's  no  doubt  about  it,  we  Broncos  are  a  proud  and 
spirited  bunch!  In  our  q^uest  for  understanding  the  world  and 
ourselves,  one  o|uestion  seems  to  rise  more  frecjuently  than  any 
other  Why  are  we  here?  At  first  analysis,  one  might  be  swayed 
to  say,  "for  an  education!'  However,  the  answer  goes  much  far- 
ther than  earning  one's  degree.  We're  here  to  be  better  people 
than  we  were  the  days  before  we  avfw/ed  on  campus.  Fayetteville 
State  University  is  cultivating  better  human  beings.  The  chal- 
lenge that  one  must  overcome,  is  to  be  the  better  Bronco-the 
better  self! 


\eadereW\p  is  not  a  face  that  a  3ronco  wears  m  the  lime  liglit 
\or  when  someone  important  is  watcliin^,  One  who  obeervee 
.our  campus  leaders  will  note  that  the  &ronco  motto,  res  non 
verba,  deeds  not  words,  is  more  than  the  mere  wishful  thinking  on 
the  part  of  our  predecessors.  Those  who  came  before  us  were 
pioneers,  making  a  difference  in  the  lives  of  young  African- Ameri- 
cans, And  in  that  tradition,  we  also  lead.   As  the  days  turn  into 
years,  and  years  into  centuries,  it  has  been  a  primary  goal  to  instill 
in  each  student  a  since  of  responsible  obligation.  We  leave 
Fayetteville  State  University  and  find  our  respective  destinies  in 
the  world  with  an  intrinsic  motivation  to  make  a  difference  in  the 
lives  of  our  peers  and  within  our  community.

A  TIME  TO  LEAD 


The  Student  Government  Aeeodat'ion  serves 
as  the  official  voice  of  the  student  body. 
Elected  to  serve,  these  able  body  leaders 
devote  countless  hours  addressing  student 
issues  and  concerns. 

During  the  ]99S>-99  academic  year,  the 
Association  addressed  campus  safety, 
sponsored  a  Financial  Aid  forum,  and  attended 
theCIAA  Leadership  Conference.  Their  activity 
on  campus  is  only  rivaled  by  their  tenacious 
involvement  at  NC  Association  of  Student 
Governments  and  NC  Black  Student 
Government  Association. 

This  year,  Keren  James  served  as  5GA 
President.  James,  the  first  non  American  to 
man  the  helm  of  the  SGA,  is  a  Junior, 
Chancellor's  Scholar  majoring  in  Music 
Education.  His  home  is  Trinidad,  in  an  effort 
to  diversify  student  experiences  and  to  share 
his  culture  with  the  students,  '(^eron  sponsored 
a  trip  to  NCCU's  honorary  program  for  the 
Trinidadlan  born  Miss  Universe.

A  TIME  TO  MAKE  IT  HAPPEN 


The  Student  Activities  Council  is  at  the 
heart  and  soul  of  Bronco  Pride.  Each  mem- 
ber possesses  the  energy  and  creativity  to 
keep  the  momentum,  that  is  SAC,  going.  To 
ensure  its  longevity,  the  new  members  must 
successfully  complete  SAC  college,  a  rigor- 
ous training  course  on  planning,  program- 
ming, policy  and  procedure.  Every  year,  the 
Council  does  its  very  best  to  enhance  the 
quality  of  student  life. 

Fixed  on  laying  the  foundation  for  incoming 
freshmen,  SAC  introduced  the  new  students 
to  the  bronco  way.  During  Freshmen  Orien- 
tation, SAC  presented:  "Are  You  Ready  to 
Rumble?"  It  gave  indepth  information  on 
clubs  &  organizations  and  the  appropriate 
manner  in  which  &ronco5  represent  the  white 
and  blue.  Each  new  Bronco  left  knowing  we'll 
always  expect  the  best. 

The  Student  Activities  Council'e  major  re- 
sponsibilities include  sponsoring  Welcome 
Back  Week,  Homecoming,  and  the  Rodeo. 
Each  of  these  week-long  events  is  jammed 
pack  with  safe  alternatives  for  collegiate  fun. 
Bronco  Cinema,  Hip  Hop  Bingo,  Super  Free 
Play,  Bowling,  the  Dating  Game,  Coffee 
House,  Mardi  Gras,  The  Blu-au,  and  Carnival 
are  just  a  few  ways  SAC  livens  up  FSU's  cam- 
pus. They  really  made  it  happen  one  last  time 
in  '99!

JOHN  SMITH 


John  Smith,  a  native  of  Charlotte, 
North  Carolina,  represented  the  Univeristy 
with  the  upmost  in  Bronco  Pride  as  Mr  F5U. 
John  is  a  Chancellor's  Scholar,  Drum  Major 
of  the  Marching  &ronco  Express,  Resident 
Assistant  and  member  of  the  Black 
Millenium  Modeling  Club.  He  participated  in

the  youth  spokeperson  for  the  Cumberland

Baby  Think  It  Over  Program,  a  teen  pregnancy 
prevention  proqram.  John  conducted  work- 
shops which  explored  the  emotional,  finan- 
cial and  social  coneec^uencee  of  teen 
parenting  to  area  teenagers. 


The  time  of  classroom  lectures,  homework,  late  niight 
studyiriig,  o^uestions,  research  and  examinations  is  put 
first  before  that  of  laughter  and  danc'mq^,  for  we  must 
first  sow  in  scholarship  and  reap  in  joy.  To  be  a  senior  meane 
a  great  deal  of  time  and  effort  were  put  to  use  in  the  pur- 
suit of  a  dream.  Earning  a  degree,  or  getting  your  papere 
(as  it  is  commonly  referred  to  by  underqraduat-e  students) 
can  be  tantamount  to  a  regular  thai  by  ordeal.  Graduation 
day  is  the  culmination  of  those  four  {or  five  or  six)  years  of 
exceptionally  challenging  mental  gymnastics.  Like  a  cross 
country  match,  the  finish  line  is  in  sight.  It  is  the  bronco 
Intent  to  reap  the  gold.  For  our  families  and  for  the  future 
/'t  is  time  to  reap  success.

lass  History:  The  Best  for  Last 


It  was  only  four  ^eare  aqo,  1995  when  the  last  class  of  the  millennium  left  from  high  school  yards  to  the  hallowed  halls  of 
Fayetteville  State  University.  As  students,  we  were  to  be  challenged  to  be  the  very  best  aic\d  the  brightest  academically. 
Society  dared  us  Qroncoe  to  make  the  best  use  of  our  time  and  to  conclude  successfully.  The  opportunities  were  bounds 
less.  While  the  country  awaited  the  0.  J.  verdict,  we  were  busy.  It  was  time  to  prepare  for  tomorrow. 


1 


In  the  1995-96  academic  year,  as  the  freshmen  class,  we  were  off  to  a  remarkable  beginning.  We  met  the  onset  of  the  new  year  anxious 
to  be  counted.  Our  voice  would  be  heard  with  Tiffany  Brown,  Demetria  White,  LaTysha  Bolden,  and  Taurus  Slnqleton  as  Freshman  Class 
President,  Vice  President,  Secretary,  and  Queen  respectively.  Rotimi  Ariyo,  Douglas  Barnes  and  l^elvin  Thompson  also  represented  the 
class  as  senators  in  the  5GA.  This  year  we  would  organize  with  Wayne  X  Hodges,  Student  Body  President,  and  head  to  Washington, 
D.C.  for  the  Million  Man  March.  Kelvin  Thompson  and  Demetria  White  were  trailblazers  by  becoming  the  first  freshmen  ever  to  be 
elected  to  SAC! 

During  our  sophomore  year  it  was  plain  to  see  we  would  continue  in  the  Bronco  tradition  of  "bucking  the  system."  Though  we  remained 
an  active  voice  within  the  student  government  and  under/graduate  politics,  some  of  our  peers  felt  too  restricted  by  the  current  policies 
with  reference  to  spontaneous  gatherings  on  campus.  After  leaving  one  of  the  more  liberal  off  campus  parties,  thrown  by  the  Bryant 
Hall  Clioiye,  some  students  insisted,  "Hey,  the  party  ain't  over!"  When  the  party  continued  in  Bryant  Hall's  Parking  lot,  campus  police 
insisted  that  it  was.  To  make  a  long  story  short,  it  took  in  excess  of  20  Fayetteville  city  policemen  and  a  pair  of  fire  trucks  to  cool  the 
party  off.  This  incident  had  the  potential  for  disaster,  however,  it  brought  about  lots  of  discussion,  including  students'  first  amend- 
ment rights.  In  the  final  analysis,  students  were  /^ranted  the  express  permission  of  the  chancellor  to  assemble  spontaneously  on  the 
yard.  It  was  a  time  for  victory. 

Junior  year  presented  the  class  of  '99  with  exciting  and  new  opportunities.  It  was  a  year  of  firsts.  After  playing  Las  Vegas  and 
venturing  up  the  east  coast  for  tour,  this  year  the  Concert  Choir,  Brass,  Choral  and  Jazz  Ensembles  embarked  on  a  European  Tour. 
They  performed  for  capacity  crowds  in  both  Paris,  France  and  Brussels,  Belgium.  Upon  return,  the  Jazz  Band  was  off  to  perform  on  the 
Royal  Caribbean  Cruise  Ship.  This  was  the  first  time  in  FSU  history  that  our  musical  organizations  would  assume  the  role  of  interna- 
tional ambassadors  from  bronco  Country.  In  the  spring  semester  we  would  also  elect  the  first  Trinidadian  Student  Body  President, 
Keren  James.  This  certainly  was  a  time  to  innovate. 

With  Senior  year  upon  us,  there  was  little  time  to  waste.  We  quickly  got  our  affairs  in  order,  but  for  many  there  was  a  hold  up.  The 
Office  of  Financial  Aid.  Students  waited  for  many  months,  some  with  major  financial  responsibilities,  for  their  federal  aid  to  be 
awarded.  At  the  end  of  the  day  there  was  only  one  resounding  cry:  Show  me  the  Money!  Refund  Check;  Bronco  Pride!  After  5(5A 
initiated  town  hall  styled  meetings,  long  talks,  and  the  attention  of  the  press  the  issue  was  resolved  and  eventually  rectified. 
On  a  more  serious  note,  this  year  was  also  marred  with  tragedy.  Several  students  were  slain  by  their  trench  coat  adorned  peers  in 
Columbine,  OK  at  Columbine  High.  Fayetteville  State  University  is  an  institution  whose  legacy  is  one  of  educating  educators.  This  year, 
prospective  teachers  were  forced  to  redefine  what  their  role  in  life  would  be.  Putting  oneself  in  jeopardy  to  give  the  gift  of  education  to, 
America's  youth  is  proving  daily  to  truly  be  a  labor  of  love.

The  class  of  1999  will  end  its  journey  at  FSU  on  May  15, 1999,  in  the  Felton  J.  Capel  Arena,  but  we  will  always  cherish  the  memories  of 
id  White  and  Blue.  To  those  who  chose  to  follow,  it  is  time. 


Anyone  who  has  ever  complained,  "There  is  noth 
ing  to  do"  was  sadly  mistaken.  From  the  very 
start  of  the  school  year  SAC  or  The  Student 
Activities  Council  kicks  off  the  neivyear  with  welcome 
back  week.  A  great  time  is  to  be  had  by  all  at  this  week 
long  campus  wide  event.  SAC  also  provides  the  stu- 
dent body  a  plethora  of  fun  activities  to  participate  in 
during  the  year.  Movie  nights,  dances,  coffee  houses, 
comedy  jams.  Bronco  Beach,  Bowling,  game  shows, 
karaoke,  and  Las  Vegas  night.  Campus  clubs,  Greek 
lettered  organizations,  and  social  fellowships  have  pro- 
grams including  speakers,  panel  discussions  and  off- 
campus  parties.  Which  ever  events  you  choose  to  take 
part  in,  you're  sure  to  find  students  with  similar  inter- 
est and  various  backgrounds  with  whom  you  can  con- 
nect.

CANT  HIDE  "DAT"  BRONCO  PRIDE 


Stand  back!  That  '^mncd'b  bucking!  Notliing 
compares  to  tlie  bucking  good  times  of  a 
&ronco  Homecoming.  Everyone  is  excited  and 
tinis  is  definitely  a  time  to  celebrate.  For  one 
week  in  tlie  fall  semester,  The  Student 
Activities  Council  would  flood  the  campus  with 
bronco  Pride,  leaving  all  fakers  in  a  blue  and 
white  haze. 

Festivities  kicked  off  on  Sunday,  October  25. 
The  men  on  campus  took  center  stage  as 
they  vie  for  the  title  of  Mr  FSU.  On  this  night, 
the  Capel  Arena  was  full  of  onlookers 
wonderinq  who  would  walk  away  with  the

The  party  continued  on  Monday  with  the  blue 
and  White  dance.  With  DJ  Base  on  the  Wheels 
of  Steel  we  couldn't  go  wronq.  Everyone  wae 
ewe  to  wear  the  school's  colors  for  fear  of  a 
hefty  admission  price.  As  Demetria  White, 
SAC  Program  Director  would  say,  "FIVE 
DOLLARS!" 

Tuesday  and  Wednesday  allowed  the  student 
body  to  take  a  more  active  role  in  the  fun. 
Black  Millennium  Modeling  Club  S'tponsored 
Showtime  at  Seabrook.  Truly  no  one  could 
have  prepared  for  the  good,  the  bad,  and  the 
down  right  ugly  that  night.  That  evening 
worked  the  same  way  as  the  popular  style  of 
talent  shows  made  popular  m  Harlem,  NY  The 
next  night  several  students  took  the  hot  seat 
in  "You  Lau^h,  You  Lose."  In  this  live  game 
show  comedians  tried  their  very  best  to  make 
us  laugh. 

The  week  was  getting  off  to  a  tremendous 
start  and  yet  there  was  still  more  to  come.

'^  "  ATIMETOLAUCH 


Outeide,  d.ov^r\  the  stairs,  around  the  co'r'(\er,  and  into 
the  parking  lot  of  the  Cape!  Arena  stood  many  anxious  patrons 
in  a  quadruple  file  line.  Each  was  waiting  to  get  their  laugh  on 
with  the  comedy  styling  of  Michael  Colyar,  Pierre,  Bruce  Bruce, 
and  Chocolate.  That's  right.  The  Student  Activities  Council 
was  throwing  their  biggest  Comedy  Jam  ever 

Opening  the  show  was  the  Smile  Band,  out  of  DC.  They 
played  their  slammin'  renditions  of  the  latest  R&B  and  Hip  Hop. 
Just  when  we  thought  they  were  through,  they  gave  us  some 
more!  The  crowd  was  hyped  and  everyone  was  feeling  the  band. 
It  would  only  be  moments  before  we  would  bring  on  the  Comedy. 

Yall  ready  for  your  first  comedian,  say  yeah.  Pierre  was 
so  funny.  His  show  was  not  one  for  the  whole  family,  but  the 
college  crowd  wae  m  stiches.  This  not  so  tall  man  got  some 
very  big  laughs.  Next  on  the  roster,  was  Bruce  Bruce,  the  big 
daddy  of  them  all.  His  lively  style  of  comedy  caught  some  of 
the  audience  on  the  ooky  doke.  Some  hecklers  thought  he  would 
endure  some  of  their  rhetoric.  However,  this  was  not  the  case. 
He  quickly  shut  them  up  and  continued  to  rock  the  house  in  his 
own  way.  The  only  female  comedian  in  this  group  was  Chocolate. 
She  was  straight  hilarious  from  the  beginning.  A  seasoned 
artist,  her  mix  of  narrative  comedy  and  one  liners  was  a  winning 
combination.  Now,  Michael  Colyer  was  a  complete  character 
His  show  Included  social  commentary,  political  awareness,  and 
everyday  common  since  comedy.  When  the  jam  came  to  an  end, 
everyone  was  completely  laughed  out. 

The  night  was  a  definite  success  by  any  measure  and  it 
was  only  Friday.    There  was  still  more  time  to  celebrate.

dreds of  spectators  who  lined  the  tradi-

who  attended  the  1995  F5U  Homecoming 
Parade  that  we  simply  "can't  Hide  that 
Bronco  pride". 

F5U  retirees,  Dr.  &  Mrs.  Henry

for  the  6l5t   homecoming  parade.

hundreds  of  students,  alumni,  family 
and  friends  filled  Bronco  Stadium  to  watch 
the  F5U  ?}roncoe  take  on  the  Bowie  State 
Bulldogs. 

The  football  game  was  filled  with  stellar 
defense  and  a  solid  offensive  effort  by  the 
droncos;  however,  the  Bulldogs  would  not  be 
denied.  Despite  the  10-7  defeat,  Broncos 
enpyed  a  wonderful  homecoming. 

A  highlight  of  the  game  was  the  Half 
time  festivities  .  Following  the  Bowie  State 
Marching  Band  performance,  the  Mighty 
Bronco  Express  brazingly  marched  onto  the 
field  and  let  it  be  known  that  this  was  Bronco 
Terrltoryl  The  fesitivties  concluded  with  the

A  TIME  TO  THRO'  DOWN 


The  Capel  Arena  was  packed  to  ca- 
pacity forthe  annual  FSU  Pan-Hellenic  Coun- 
cil Homecoming  Step  Show.  The  crowd  was 
in  for  a  real  treat  as  the  sororities  ar\d  fra- 
ternities stepped  forth  to  demonstrate  their 
skills. 

It  was  a  night  for  high  steps  and  top 
hats  as  each  orqan\zat\on  qraced  the  stage 
with  their  presence  and  style.  The  ladies  of 
Alpha  Kappa  Alpha  dazzled  the  crowd  with 
their  tribute  to  the  frate  as  they  fouqht  hard 
to  retain  1st  place  for  a  second  year  in  a  row. 
Zeta  Phi  Beta's  ripples  and  acrobatics  dis- 
tinguished them  as  a  main  contender  for  the 
crown.  Pelta  Sigma  Theta  commanded  the 
attention  and  respect  of  all  when  they  hit 
the  stage  in  their  red  satin  pants  with 
matching  ties,  suspenders  and  top  hats. 

The  Kappas  straight  out  of  "Nupe 
Kounty  Penitentiary",  a  maxium  security  fa- 
cility for  pretty  boys,  left  us  calling  for  more 
as  they  whirled  and  twirled  their  amazing 
canes.  Phi  Beta  Sigma,  always  a  crowd 
pleaser,  donned  top  hate  and  went  back  to 
the  old  school.  Alpha  Phi  Alpha  left  the  au- 
dience wondering,  "Who  were  the  masked 
brothers  decked  out  in  complete  ninja  gear 
that  didn't  miss  an  opportunity  to  throw 
down  at  every  beat?" 

The  envelope  please.  . .

The  ladies  of  AE0  walked  away 
with  the  first  place  trophy  for  their 
a'Hard  winning  routine.  The  soul  step- 
'ing  sorors  of  Delta  Sigma  Theta, 
impressed  the  judges  with  their  pre-

left  everyone  spell  bound. 

The  mighty  brothers  of  (t>BS

TV  TIME 


MTV  Koad  Rules  rolled  on  to  campus 
during  the  month  of  April.  Free  games,  pizza, 
and  of  course  music  topped  the  charts  for  this 
fun  day  of  activity.  Broncos  also  were  treated 
to  the  new  Coke  product,  "Citra".  Although  the 
beverage  didn't  make  the  hit  list,  free  MTV  Koad 
Rules  tee-shirts  and  cape  were  a  &ronco  favor- 
ite. 


thletics  has  always  been  a  source  of  pride  and  renewed 
;liool  spirit  at  tliis,  tlie  liome  of  tlie  Broncos.  Winning  has 
llong  been  a  &ror\co  tradition.  A  world  class  institution  of 
iiigher  learning,  Fayetteville  State  University,  has  always  positioned 
itself  in  a  class  of  champions.  S>ronco  Basketball,  Cross  Country, 
Golf,  Football,  Softball,  and  Volleyball  each  serve  the  University  with 
the  best  of  sportsmanship.  They  represent  the  very  best  about  the 
3lue  and  White.  One  can  find  the  very  highest  in  CIAA  sports  enter- 
tainment right  here.  At  Fayetteville  State  University  you'll  encoun- 
ter some  of  the  finest  college  educated  athletes.  One  can  surely 
count  on  Broncos  to  know  the  precise  time  to  score.

ORGANIZATION 


Anything  one  can  do  alone,  can  be  done  better  as  a  group.  The 
bronco  family  works  together  in  a  supportive  atmosphere  to 
add  culture  and  substance  to  the  campus.  Clubs  and  organi- 
zations are  the  vehicle  for  getting  things  done.  At  F5U  each  stu- 
dent has  the  opportunity  to  belong,  excel  and  to  lead.  Each  group 
serves  a  purpose  and  enriches  the  quality  of  life  on  campus.  It's 
perfectly  normal  to  have  one's  own  thoughts  and  to  function  as  an 
individual.  However,  campus  organizations  exist  as  reminders  that  in 
the  Bronco  Family,  no  one  is  alone.  It  is  time  to  belong.

A  TIME  TO  PERFORM 


Treemonleha  wae  the  Department  of  Fer- 
forming  and  Fine  Arts  second  operatic  produc- 
tion of  the  year.  Written  by  Scott  Joplin  in  the 
\&00'5,  the  hietoric  black  opera  was  not  only 
entertaining  but  served  to  reinforce  and  affirm 
the  talents  of  early  African-American  artist 
and  writers.  A  jazz  musician  and  composer, 
Joplin'5  work  made  for  an  interesting  blend  of 
sound  and  colors.  Audience  members  were  sure 
to  hear  the  "jazzy"  chorda  and  ear  poppin'  melo- 
dies abound. 

Treemonisha  was  set  in  a  small  village 
where  everybody  knew  everybody  and  none  was  a 
stranger,  It's  the  story  of  young  woman  who  is 
the  only  one  in  her  village  with  schoolin'  and  af- 
ter a  kidnappinq  and  a  daring  rescue  finds  that 
she  was  born  to  lead  her  people.  The  opera, 
though  written  nearly  two  hundred  years  aqo 
still  remains  poingent  with  issues  of  today.

A  Note  of  Thanks 

First  we  would  like  to  thank  alt  of  those  who  have  givt  i 
support  to  the  96-99  FayettewH/an.  We  realize  that  it  may 
have  seemed  like  this  edition  would  newer  be  printed.  No  fingers 
can  be  pointed  atone  particular  person  or  reason  rather  to  the 
skeem  of  the  hetic  life  in  which  live.  We  encountered  many, 
many  obstacles  and  problems,  both  work  related  and  personal 
and  we  really  felt  like  forgetting  it.  Then  we  thought  about  yci, 
the  student  body,  and  we  kept  working,  We  kept  trying  to  ge* 
pictures  taken,  trying  to  figure  out  a  way  to  produc- 
undergraduate  photographs  from  the  ID  Card  System  (Ye-:' 
the  company  assured  us  that  we  could  do  this  and  it  worked 
so  well  in  the  test  demonstration)  and  trying  to  produce  a 
book  that  captured  the  moments  that  we  shared.  But  life 
doesn't  always  go  as  planned  and  so  we  realized  that  it  was 
time  for  us  to  change  the  things  that  we  could  change  and 
accept  the  things  that  we  could  not  change.  So  as  we  end  the 
20th  Century,  we  look  back  and  remember  the  way  we  lived,  who 
we  loved,  the  challenges  we  faced  and  the  victories  we  won.
